Terms of Use
Last updated: June 27, 2012
Care to Click, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("we", "us", or "our"), owns and operates CaretoClick.com, Care2Click.com, and certain other applications, software or functionality through which you have accessed these Terms of Use (collectively, "CaretoClick"). CaretoClick allows you to support various causes (each a "Cause") through your interactions with us as further explained below.
By visiting, using and/or submitting information to CaretoClick, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of these Terms of Use (this "Agreement") and our Privacy Policy, located at www.caretoclick.com/privacy (the "Privacy Policy").
This Agreement contains an agreement to arbitrate all claims and disclaimers of warranties and liability.
Your Compliance with this Agreement
You acknowledge that this Agreement is supported by reasonable and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged. Without limiting the foregoing, you acknowledge that such consideration includes, without limitation, your ability to visit, use and/or submit information to CaretoClick. You represent that you have the capacity to be bound by this Agreement, or if you are acting on behalf of a company or other entity, you have the authority to bind such company or entity. In order to determine your compliance with this Agreement, we may monitor your access and use of CaretoClick in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Interacting With CaretoClick
You can support Causes through your interactions with us. For example, you may click links, share our content through various social media outlets, sign–up for free offers, ask questions about Causes, or access and shop on third-party websites, each of which may generate revenue through referral fees ("Referral Fees") paid to us by third-parties. You may not, however, click on a link more than once per Cause per day. In addition, you may not share particular content through the same social media outlet more than once per day, per Cause. For example, you should not tweet the same content numerous times in one day via Twitter.
As more fully described below, a portion of the Referral Fees generated through your interactions with CaretoClick will be donated to charities that generally support the applicable Cause. It is not necessary that you register or set up an account with us for your interactions with CaretoClick to result in donations to charities. If you want to sign up to receive free offers through CaretoClick or create a CaretoClick dashboard to track your impact, however, then you will need to register and set up an account with us. You will need to share information with us, such as your name and email address, as well as create a password, to set up an account. All information you share with us will be used as set forth in the Privacy Policy.
If we require you to create a password to use certain portions of CaretoClick, or use a password you have created with a third party (such as Facebook), then it is your sole responsibility to maintain the security of that password. You agree that we shall not be liable for any loss that you may suffer as a result of the authorized or unauthorized use of your password by a third party. You shall not allow any person under the age of 18 to use any or our services via your registration or password.
Donations to Causes
CaretoClick may allow you to choose certain Causes to support. For example, you can choose a particular Cause by selecting one of the Causes from the menu bar at the top of our website(s). We will use commercially reasonable efforts to pay to charities supporting the Cause that you choose a portion of all Referral Fees generated by your interactions with CaretoClick (the "Donations"). For example, if you click "Shop Online" and then make a purchase on a retailer's website, we may receive a Referral Fee from the retailer and make a Donation to charities supporting the applicable Cause chosen by you.
We will track Donation amounts between October 1st and September 31st of each calendar year (the "Donation Period"). Donations will be made to charities at the end of each calendar year, based on Donation amounts tracked during the immediately preceding Donation Period.
Unless otherwise determined by us, in our sole discretion, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, we will only pay Donations to organizations that acquire a Section 501(c)(3) tax exemption from the United States Internal Revenue Service. Should we determine, in our sole discretion, to pay a Donation to a charity that does not acquire a Section 501(c)(3) tax exemption from the United States Internal Revenue Service (a "Non-Exempt Charity"), then the Non-Exempt Charity shall be solely responsible for paying any taxes due on amounts Donated to that Non-Exempt Charity, as well as filling out and submitting any required IRS forms. Please note that we may be required to either not list or remove certain Causes from time to time, and that a charity related to a Cause may not accept a Donation. We do not promise, nor should you expect, that a charity or Cause will always be available to receive donations from us. We reserve the right to select the particular charity or charities that will receive donations for the Causes, in our sole discretion. In addition, each charity is solely responsible for its views, purpose, administration, and effectiveness. The views, purpose, administration and effectiveness of a charity do not represent those of CaretoClick or our owners or affiliates, and Donations or links to charities by CaretoClick do not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by us of those charities or their Causes. We do not guarantee that a charity will use Donations as described by the charity or any third party.
We may post information regarding the effect of your particular interaction with us (e.g., that clicking a link will save a certain area of rainforest). This information is based on a number of assumptions and other data provided to us and the actual effect of your interaction may vary. All donations are symbolic and will be used by the recipient organizations in the manner deemed most urgent. We are not responsible for any action or inaction of a charity or other third party.
CaretoClick is Not Intended for Minors
CaretoClick is not intended to be used by, and is not directed to, anyone under 18 years of age. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age.

You shall not metatag or frame CaretoClick without our prior express written permission.

Any civil action, claim, dispute or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, except for an injunctive action regarding a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement by you as provided above, shall be referred to final and binding arbitration, before a single arbitrator, under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in Palm Beach County, Florida.
THEREFORE, YOU DO NOT HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS AND YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. By using CaretoClick you consent to these restrictions.
You and we shall select the arbitrator, and if you and we are unable to reach agreement on selection of the arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the American Arbitration Association shall select the arbitrator.

The party requesting arbitration shall advance such sums as are required from time to time by the arbitrator to pay the arbitrator's fees and costs until the prevailing party is determined or the parties have agreed in writing to an alternate allocation of fees and costs.
Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive upon you and us and your and our respective administrators, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If any portion of this Agreement is deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, this Agreement as a whole shall not be deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable, but only that portion of this Agreement that is unlawful, void or unenforceable shall be stricken from this Agreement.
The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Agreement, and shall not limit or otherwise affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Michael Wormstone: Winter Travels
A chance to catch up on what's happening in Michael Wormstone's world of travelling, here is his latest blog entry:
'As many of you know, my work takes me across the globe and this winter I have spent hours traversing the planet in order to communicate our work and ideas.
In December, I attended the 2017 International Conference on the Lens, which is held every other year on the Big Island of Hawaii. The original concept of this meeting was to bring Japanese and American scientists together, but over the years the pool of scientists has expanded to cover the globe. The meeting was successful and I enjoyed excellent discussions with fellow scientists and representatives from industry.
Following the meeting I returned home for Christmas and the New Year (though I spent a lot of the time in the lab) before heading over to Singapore in mid-January when I was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the Hoya Medical Singapore Technical Centre. Hoya Surgical Optics make artificial lenses implanted during cataract surgery and through collaboration we are working together to further advance IOL designs and improve outcomes for cataract patients in the future.'

Do you have a flea infestation and need a Morris County flea exterminator? Fleas are very small, flightless insects. As external parasites of mammals and birds, they live by consuming the blood of their hosts. Adults are up to about 3 mm (0.12 in) long and usually brown. Bodies flattened sideways enable them to move through their host's fur or feathers. They also have strong claws prevent them from being dislodged. They lack wings, and have mouthparts adapted for piercing skin and sucking blood and hind legs adapted for jumping. The latter enable them to leap a distance of some 50 times their body length.
Fleas in North Jersey | Morris County Flea Exterminator
- Cat Flea. As the name suggests, cat fleas are commonly found on cats but they also attack dogs, other animals and even humans. Inside the home, their favorite spot is often the carpet but you may find their eggs anywhere in the house other than on your pets.
- Human Flea. Some folks may say there is no such thing as flea infestation in humans. With the discovery of the human flea, that is no longer true. They stick and hide in the body's most hairy parts such as the underarm and the head. However, observing a strict hygiene practice will keep these pests away.
- Chicken Flea. This flea type is usually found with their heads buried in the skin of chickens near the head or face. At first glance, it would look like the fowl's head or face is infested with black heads but on a closer look, you'll discover that they are in fact chicken fleas
- Sticktight Flea. This type of critter loves to bury their heads into the skin of almost any animal – dog, cat, horse, bird and humans too. Sticktight fleas are quite hard to remove once they have attached themselves onto the skin of their victim. They often cause infections and anemia to young animals.

For once in my life, I can say I am ready and excited for the summer. You guys all know how much I hate the heat (and Boise summer's has no lack of it), but I am feeling fit and happy and ready to be outside exploring. I'm hoping we'll be able to take a longer camping trip at some point this summer; to really get out and relax and enjoy nature.
Revolt this week just about killed me. Or at least my rear-end. This is an extreme exaggeration, but do you want to hear a funny story? So, normally a week of Revolt exercises includes 3 days of cardio, 1 day of lower body sculpting, and 1 day of upper body sculpting (just not in that order). Well, Nichole was super lovely and had some extra awesome fat burning cardio blast workouts planned for us all this week to kick us into gear for the June 3rd uprising (wanna join me?!) that starts Monday. The workouts were great! But I had shut myself away from the internet for the weekend and was unaware of this change of plans. Also, I usually take a break on Saturday because Saturdays are my most busy days and it is easier for me to do my last cardio video/exercise on Sunday instead. I did this this week, and then decided to switch my Monday and Tuesday workouts too, making Monday's workout an intense lower body sculpting day. Well, Tuesday when I got back on the internet, I found out Monday was suppose to be a rest day! Since then I've been doing cardio blast type workouts all week. My poor little behind; all of those workouts were jam-packed with lunges and squat after squat. It has been quite a killer workout, and now I am getting a bit off a break. Even sitting down hurts :( But! I think you can see from my results this week that these intense workouts that kicked my butt (literally) were well worth it. Look at the change in my hip measurements:
My butt is feeling a little firmer and a little smaller too. I'm excited to start the next uprising on Monday. If any of you are interested in Revolt, you can always leave a comment or email me with questions!
P.S. I did 40 big girl x push-ups yesterday! My arms and chest are getting infinitely stronger.
P.P.S. Will is going to be joining my in my journey with Revolt! Look for some thoughts from him in next weeks post.

possible options:
a)they are going to drill through the walls and try and throw hard hats into the hole
b) they are going to wear ghost busters suits and climb into the top of the elevators and wait for unsuspecting tenants to scare the crap out of
c) they are going to be holding microsoft paint photo shopping lessons
d) they are hoping more then one elevator will be functioning properly at the same time (there are four total)
e) what do you think?
ps. these are framed and then attached to the walls in the elevator with velcro. i tried to show the scale of the tiny little framed pictures and the non-symmetrical way they were hung. idiots.

Mary Leakey : biography
Mary Leakey (6 February 1913 – 9 December 1996) was a British paleoanthropologist who discovered the first fossilized Proconsul skull, an extinct ape now believed to be ancestral to humans. She also discovered the robust Zinjanthropus skull at Olduvai Gorge. For much of her career she worked together with her husband, Louis Leakey, in the Olduvai Gorge, in eastern Africa, uncovering the tools and fossils of ancient hominines. She developed a system for classifying the stone tools found at Olduvai. She also discovered the Laetoli footprints. It was here, at the Laetoli site, that she discovered Hominin fossils that were more than 3.75 million-years-old. She also discovered fifteen new species of other animals, and one new genus.
In 1960 she became director of excavation at Olduvai and subsequently took it over, building her own staff.
After the death of her husband, she became a leading palaeoanthropologist, helping to establish the Leakey tradition by training her son, Richard, in the field.

Mary Leakey was born Mary Douglas Nicol on 6 February 1913, in London, England to Erskine Edward Nicol and Cecilia Marion (Frere) Nicol. Since Erskine worked as a painter, specializing in watercolor landscapes, the Nicol family would move from place to place, visiting numerous locations in the USA, Italy, and Egypt, where Erskine painted scenes to be sold in England. Erskine Nicol developed an amateur enthusiasm for Egyptology during his travels. Mary Leakey was a direct descendant of antiquarian, John Frere, and cousin to archaeologist, Sheppard Frere, on her mother's side. The Frere family had been active abolitionists in the British colonial empire during the nineteenth century and established several communities for freed slaves. Three of these communities remained in existence as of Mrs. Leakey's 1984 autobiography: Freretown, Kenya; Freretown, South Africa; and Freretown, India. She also was a distant relative of baronet Henry Bartle Frere.Mary Leakey, Disclosing the Past: An Autobiography, Garden City, New York: Doubleday, 1984, pp. 14–17.
The Nicols spent much of their time in southern France. Mary became fluent in French. She identified more with the adventurous spirit of her father, going for long walks and explorations with him and having long talks. She disliked her governess and had less sympathy for her mother.
In 1925, when Mary was twelve, the Nicols stayed at Les Eyzies at a time when Elie Peyrony was excavating one of the caves there. Peyrony did not understand the significance of much of what he found, and was not excavating scientifically during that early stage of archaeology. Mary received permission to go through his dump. It was there that her interest in prehistory was sparked. She started a collection of points, scrapers, and blades from the dump and developed her first system of classification.Virginia Morell, Ancestral Passions, Copyright 1996, Chapter 4, "Louis and Mary."
That winter, the family moved to Cabrerets, a village of Lot, France. There she met Abbé Lemozi, the village priest, who befriended her and became her mentor for a time. The two toured Pech Merle cave to view the prehistoric paintings of bison and horses.Disclosing the Past, pp. 27–28.

This cabled shrug has a unique twist, with spiraling cabled sleeves. Esmerelda is worked top-down with raglan construction until the sleeves. The sleeve stitches are then put on holders while the back is worked back and forth. The sleeves are then worked top-down in the round until the desired length. Lastly, the trim is applied around the edge of the shrug, creating a shawl collar around the neckline.
Fiber Fiend designed Esmerelda as a Ravelry Fiber Fiends group knit-a-long in installments. She also posted the instructions in installments on her blog. You can still find the instructions in either place for free, or you can purchase a pdf of the entire pattern (nicely formatted, with the addition of a schematic) on this page or at FiberFiend.com. You can also purchase a hard copy of the pattern at FiberFiend.com.
Note: Esmerelda is made to fit tightly with minimal ease, although the sizing runs a bit small (especially in the sleeves), so if between sizes you should probably go with the larger size.

… i manage cables
Every time I see one of those executive charging stations I think about how useful, and unnecessary they are. Creating an attractive place to charge your gear, or hiding it away isn't very hard; it just takes a little effort. For all of $4, or the cost of a cheap power strip, I was able to turn the top drawer of my night stand into a hub for the stuff I charge daily.
My nightstand had a false back that was easily removable so I just took it off with a screwdriver. Then I made sure that the power strip would fit and clear the drawers and I mounted it in the back, on the top.
Once I mounted the strip I plugged in my chargers and replaced the back, marking the position of the hole to be drilled for the power.

I love Shakespeare's tragedies, all for different reasons and for different seasons. Macbeth's theme of destruction brought forth by ambition unchecked by moral constraints seemed especially apt in current climates.
For the uninitiated, Macbeth is Shakespeare's shortest, most compressed tragedies. The title character Macbeth was driven by his and his wife's ambition and lust for power into murdering the benevolent King Duncan. The act of murder eventually leads to more acts of violence and deaths, culminating in the eventual death of the title character. This is gist of the play, for more information, Google has the answer!
Ninagawa Company's Macbeth, created in 1980, and premiered in 1985's Edinburgh Festival was a resounding success and introduced the late Yukio Ninagawa to an international audience, with critics and audiences applauding the director for his "bold gestures and painterly beauty".
This restaging at Esplande was especially profound as it marked the 1st anniversary of the director's death.
When news was released that Ninagawa Macbeth would be coming to Singapore, I got especially excited and determined to catch it, and decided to drag Siti Z along. Luckily for us, we managed to snatch the last few tickets for Stalls, and we were not disappointed.
Upon entrance, we were immediately greeted by this ornate frame onstage.
This was a good sign of the impressive things to come because it's not often you get productions that pay this much attention to setting the mood right.
As the theatre etiquette abiding patron we are, this would unfortunately be the only picture i have to show for the entire production. Everything else is in my head, and someday, when some young punks decide to ask me what was the most impressive stage production I've ever seen, this would be one of them…
This is going to be one of the few plays I will always remember.
It really is achingly beautiful. Throw in the fact that this is a play by play reproduction of the original production designed in the 80s; albeit with a different cast (yeah, this was a point that was strangely reinforced to me..), there were no signs of the production being dated at all.
To further illustrate the point, refer to the pictures below –
Now, to be quite honest, I fell asleep a bit in the first half.
It had nothing to do with the production, its more like my personal standard of conduct… I nod off after like 30mins into ANY FREAKING production and usually wake up about 10minutes later, so I always try and watch long shows with a buddy, so you know… in case I start snoring and what not.. So yes.. the point is I can be quite useless.
The reason why I brought up this point was because I was so impressed with the the sets, costumes, the music and the actors that I lasted longer than usual, and dozed for shorter because I didn't want to miss a single thing.. every single bit of the production was just breathtaking. There were so many things to see and absorb, and was done with such consideration, it was like watching poetry unfold onstage.
There were many, many scenes that left a great big impression on me, but the fight scenes, those struck me the most – cherry blossom tree in the background with its flowers falling softly as men clashed metals beneath it, some dying out of duty and others of belief. The contrast between the serenely falling petals and the bloodbath beneath it was especially poignant in a play that seems fascinated with death.
The accompanying music for the entire performance sounded like a mix of western classics coupled with what I though reminded me of Buddhist chants, haunted me. It was a constant reminder that death is near but coupled with the weeping cherry blossoms and my personal perception of Buddhist chants, it was also a reminder that in death, there can be peace and solace too. It took a long while for that to sink in because again, peace and solace seemed to have no place in Macbeth's world.
At a point in my life where I feel like I needed everything to be perfect and aligned, where things are beginning to frustrate, Ninagawa Macbeth carried more meaning to me than just an aesthetically appealing production.
It was a reminder of life's shortness and of its impermanence.
I did not want to write a review for this production because it already has many raving reviews by professional critics, I don't think any review that I do will ever do the beauty and grace of this production any justice. Theatre is an experience that differs person to person, and this was a very enlightening experience for me. It too me very long to be able to get this out because for me, the experience transcended the theatre, it was a reminder of life but to some readers, it may seem to much of an exaggeration. All I want to conclude with, is that if the chance to watch this production again ever arises, I'd do so without a doubt.
And if you have the chance to catch it, you probably should. However go in with an open heart and mind, create your own experience and meaning because it'll mean more that way, don't be a douche and go in because its the hottest ticket in town. That would be an insult and disgrace to theatre.


text: essex_chris Have you got a budget in mind? And do you have enough room or the inclination to use a power rack? I have the following; That is a relatively low end rack with the lat/low pully system on it. I have a basic 127.5Kg olympic weights set, bought a bench off ebay for about £45, and then i have a couple of existing bits and pieces like an ez-curl bar. All depends on the room you have to spare and the budget. I went for a proper cage as i wanted the safety to train at home even when at my limit.

Crafting is so simple and can be done by anyone. The crafts can be adjusted to age and skill level so that young kids benefit as much as their older counterparts. You can buy crafting materials from the store, use items around the house, or the best idea, a combination of the two.
Have you ever noticed that they sell things like paper towel rolls and Popsicle sticks in the craft store? My mom used to wash the sticks after we ate our Popsicles and store them until we wanted to use them. I save the paper towel and toilet paper rolls as well as empty cartons and plastic jugs for crafts for the kids. There is no need to buy the things that you can find in your own kitchen and bathroom.
Paints, crayons, markers, scissors, and construction paper are the things I go to the craft store for. Your computer and printer are also useful in making crafts. Many websites have free designs and coloring pages that can be printed off to make crafts.
Some of the simplest crafts are puppets. Hand puppets can be made out of old socks or pieces of felt glued together. Kids can decorate the puppets to resemble Bible characters. Cotton balls make great beards and white hair. Pieces of yarn are turned into hair. Puppets can be used in skits, role playing activities, or just to display.
Instead of buying holiday cards, let the kids create their own to give to friends, teachers, and relatives. It is the thought that counts and they can pack a lot of decorative thought into a special occasion card. Proudly display the handcrafted cards that they make for the family so everyone can see them and enjoy.
Origami is the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. When I was little we used to make paper airplanes, but this is definitely a step above. The origami patterns can be printed off the computer and the children can decorate them before folding.
Choose patterns that correspond to different themes. The kids can create an ark full of animals along with Noah and his family. Their work can be displayed in their homes or at church as Sunday school projects. Origami is fun and all kids can be taught to do it with a little patience.
What types of crafts interest your kids? Whether its painting, paper crafts, working with blocks, flowers, or Popsicle sticks, they can use it as a Biblical learning experience.
Here are a few kids craft websites that we highly recommend:
Fun Kids Crafts - Kids Crafts & Art Projects with Templates & Easy-To-Follow Instructions Included

Once again, sitting surrounded by books in a flimsy carousel with that fake granite table top. Gotta say, it feels good to be back, although the heavily dreadlocked dude sitting next to me is absolutely drenched in cologne. As in it's probably adding a few ounces onto his weight and jamming my eyes like an onion.... What ever happened to frumpy studying in sweatshirts and slippers? On that note, somehow all the nerds got replaced by really hot extras from a WB sitcom on college life. The student population is at least four degree hotter than memory. Also there is cheap sushi. And free photocopies. And $2 lattes... Paradiso But??

text: The choice lengthening of telomeres (ALT) is a recombination-based mechanism of SFTPA2 telomere maintenance activated in 5-20% of human being cancers. role from the SV40 source of replication and the consequences of Werner proteins and telomerase on telomere framework and maintenance in AG11395 cells. We record that the manifestation of Werner proteins facilitates the changeover in human being cells of ALT type I love telomeres to type II like telomeres in a few aspects. These findings possess implications for the procedure and diagnosis of tumor. 1 Intro As progressive lack of telomere DNA can be connected with senescence [1] maintenance of telomere function is vital for indefinite cell proliferation. Many cancer cells depend on manifestation of telomerase for suppression CP-91149 of telomere shortening [2]. Nevertheless 5%-20% percent of malignancies preserve telomeres by the choice lengthening of telomere (ALT) a recombination-based system [3]. Telomere maintenance systems certainly are a potential prognostic sign [3] and CP-91149 guaranteeing target in tumor analysis and therapy [4-6]. Raising evidence helps that Werner proteins (WRN) a RecQ helicase and exonuclease takes on a direct part in telomere maintenance [7] and advertising of tumor cell growth [8]. WRN epigenetic silencing in human cancers leads to hypersensitivity to treatment with a number of chemotherapeutic drugs [9]. Germline mutations in the WRN gene cause an autosomal recessive disorder Werner syndrome (WS). WS is usually characterized by symptoms suggestive of premature aging and by the development of mesenchymal neoplasms [10]. Strikingly the ALT mechanism is usually more prevalent in tumors arising from tissues of mesenchymal origin such as osteosarcomas than in those of epithelial origin [11]. It has been suggested that this telomere-telomere recombination in WRN-deficient telomere dysfunctional cells promotes escape from senescence and engagement of the ALT pathway [12]. Werner protein also colocalizes with telomeres in human ALT cells [13]. cells that lack functional telomerase undergo telomere attrition and drop viability [14]. Rare cells escape senescence and two types of survivors arise. Type I ALT survivors have telomeres that have a tandem array structure. The repeat unit in the array consists of a subtelomeric Y′ element made up of an ARS (yeast origin of replication) associated with short telomeric TG1?3 repeats. This repeat unit is usually amplified as a CP-91149 tandem array CP-91149 structure at chromosome termini. Type II survivors have little or no amplification of Y′ elements but instead have long heterogeneous TG1?3 repeats extending up to several kilobase pairs (kbp) [15 16 The generation of type I cells depends on expression of proteins involved in recombination including RAD52 and RAD51. Type II cells depend on expression of Sgs1 the RecQ family helicase in addition to recombination proteins RAD52 and RAD50 [13 17 WRN can complement Sgs1 deficiency in type II ALT cells of [17]. deletion also facilitates the generation of survivors that grow impartial of Rad52. Although triple mutants generated survivors [18] readily. Nearly all from the individual ALT cell lines examined to date have got characteristics similar compared to that of type II ALT. Many individual ALT cells possess lengthy and heterogeneous telomeres which range from 2 to 20?kb in a individual cell and also have ALT-associated promyelocytic leukemia physiques (APBs) [19]. APBs support the constitutive the different parts of promyelocytic leukemia physiques telomere DNA as well as the proteins involved with DNA replication and recombination including RAD51 RAD52 RAD50 and WRN [3]. One immortalized individual cell range includes a "tandem array" telomere framework similar compared to that of type I ALT in fungus [20 21 AG11395 can be an SV40 T-antigen changed immortalized fibroblast cell range derived from a person identified as having Werner symptoms [22]. It generally does not include APBs and does not have the Werner symptoms proteins. The chromosome termini of AG11395 contain a repeat device formulated with 2.5?kb of SV40 DNA and a variable quantity of TTAGGG telomere series repeats. The SV40 DNA built-into the telomere within this cell range provides the regulatory locations which include the foundation of replication and the first and past due promoter sequences [21]. This cell range offers a distinctive system to research the role of the WRN protein and tandem array telomeres in human ALT telomere maintenance. Here we determine whether telomere maintenance in AG11395 involves a functioning SV40 origin of replication and we describe the effect on type I like structures of expression of WRN protein.

Memories of Daddy: Bread Pudding with Chai Spice Sauce
If you have read my previous posts, you know that my mother taught me much of what I know about cooking. What you don't know, is that I had the most fun cooking with my daddy. My dad only cared about flavors. He was not bound by rules of presentation and time and ingredients. This was a man who doused green beans with black pepper and called it cajun.
Yeah, he had some missteps. But he had some hits also. One of the hits that Donald Phillip Pruitt had was his bread pudding. We would make bread pudding on a whim. If we didn't have raisins, we would throw dried apples into the mix. If walnuts or coconut were available, what the heck, "Let's see how this is going to taste," he would say. 🙂
Earlier this week, I had a rough day. I wanted to pick up the phone and call my dad. Yep, sometimes you need someone to tell you to suck it up, the situation isn't worth your tears, pick your head up, and live to see another day. He passed away in 1994. And yes, I miss him (and my mother) like crazy. Since I couldn't talk to him, I made bread pudding so I could be close to him.
I bought this lovely loaf of Challah Raisin Bread from Medici. You can use almost whatever you choose. My dad and I would use white bread. You can use wheat, French, and a host of other breads that will work well as a dessert. My dad and I never made sauce to accompany our bread pudding. I figured I would bring the bread pudding into the 21st century. NOTE: If you are not a fan of Chai Tea, exclude the water and replace the tea bags with 2 tablespoons of Pure Vanilla flavor.
Bread Pudding with Challah Raisin Bread
1 loaf of Challah Raisin Bread (approximately 5 cups of bread)(torn in chunks)
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
2 1/2 cups of Milk
1/4 cup of Butter
2 cups of Sugar
1/2 cup of Raisins
1 tablespoon Pure Vanilla
1 teaspoon of Nutmeg
ONEPreheat oven at 350 degrees.
TWOMelt Butter in the Milk over low heat. Allow mixture to cool.
THREEAdd Challah Raisin Bread chunks to large bowl.
FOURPour Milk and Butter mixture over bread chunks. Soak bread chunks for at least 10 minutes.
FIVEAdd the remaining ingredients and stir thoroughly.
SIXPour mixture into a greased 9×13 baking pan or casserole dish.
SEVENBake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until top is golden brown.
Chai Spice Sauce
1 cup of Heavy Whipping Cream
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup of Sugar
1/4 cup Butter
2 of your favorite Chai Tea Bags
1/2 cup of Water
1 teaspoon spoon of Corn Starch
ONEHeat water to a boil in the microwave.
TWOAdd the tea bags to the water to extract the Chai flavor. Set aside.
THREECombine remainder of the ingredients in a saucepan.
FOURCook over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens and come to a full boil.
FIVEStir occasionally to ensure the sauce does not burn.
SIXStir in Chai Tea.
SEVENServe over bread pudding.
