Has reduced my uric acid level.
Was this review helpful to you?
This used to be syrupy, now it's watery
Posted by Reviewer2762884 on Jan 20, 2011 | Verified Purchase
My wife and I have quit buying this product because of the change in thickness. Now it is no different than the black cherry juice sold as a juice in the grocery store. it used to be thick enough to pour over ice cream or yogurt. Not anymore, unless you like to pour water over your ice cream.

My wife takes this for her swollen joints but mostly b/c she loves it mixed with water and ice.

Not as thick as the other brand I was using, and even though I bought four, seems to be less effective on the connective tissue problem causing pain between metatarsals.
Makes plain water taste like heaven

I mixed this with some plain water as a refreshing change of pace. It has no artificial sugars so it is naturally sweet. This is perfect if you have kids or adults who don't like to take things that taste bitter. Worth the money.
We love our Black Cherry Concentrate

This is a great natural laxative. It works great and is tasty for children who are fighting bowel problems. The company provides a good price and quick shipping. I highly recommend the product and the supplier!
Tastes good, but........

My husband had been told that this would help with the pain from his arthritis in his hip. He likes the smell and taste, however it has not helped with his pain. He mixes 2-3 Tablespoons in 6-8 oz of water. He found it to be disappointing.
tastes good

We diluted this with fizzy water and enjoyed it as a drink. Cherry is good for inflammation so does a useful job at the same time.

Absolutely fantastic stuff. No more bladder infections and my rheumatic hands and knees have improved wonderfully. Even though the product is in glass, the whole consignment arrived in Australia in perfect condition. Thanks again to iherb.

Although the Buddha gave extensive teachings on developing Vipassana in the many suttas that he gave, he actually used the word Vipassana very rarely. But here is one sutta which he contrasts the purpose of Samatha and Vipassana. This brief sutta is not very widely known and has yet to be included in Access to Insight.
Dve·me, bhikkhave, dhammā vijjā-bhāgiyā. Katame dve? Samatho ca vipassanā ca.
Samatho, bhikkhave, bhāvito kam-attham-anubhoti? Cittaṃ bhāvīyati. Cittaṃ bhāvitaṃ kam-attham-anubhoti? Yo rāgo so pahīyati.
Vipassanā, bhikkhave, bhāvitā kam-attham-anubhoti? Paññā bhāvīyati. Paññā bhāvitā kam-attham-anubhoti? Yā avijjā sā pahīyati.
Rāg·upakkiliṭṭhaṃ vā, bhikkhave, cittaṃ na vimuccati, avijj·upakkiliṭṭhā vā paññā na bhāvīyati. Iti kho, bhikkhave, rāga-virāgā cetovimutti, avijjā-virāgā paññāvimuttī.
These two things, bhikkhus, are conducive to knowledge. Which two? Samatha and vipassanā.
By developing Samatha, bhikkhus, what purpose is served? Mind is developed. By developing the mind, bhikkhus, what purpose is served? Whatever passion there is is abandoned.
By developing vipassanā, bhikkhus, what purpose is served? Wisdom is developed. By developing wisdom, bhikkhus, what purpose is served? Whatever ignorance there is is abandoned.
Defiled by passion, bhikkhus, the mind is not released, and defiled by ignorance, wisdom is not developed. Thus, bhikkhus, with the fading of passion there is liberation of the mind, with the fading of ignorance there is liberation by wisdom.

By Rob Kelly
Arsène Wenger aims to watch every single Arsenal match in the NextGen Series.
The Club will play their first game in the competition - seen by many as Champions League for under-19s - on Wednesday night against Marseille.
Wenger plans to attend the game at Underhill because he feels it is vitally important to stay in touch with what is happening in European football.
"I will not miss a game when I can, believe me," he told Arsenal Player. "I will watch every single game because I want to see what the other clubs have, what is going on, and if there is some evolution with the young players.
"People don't realise that the most important thing is to keep in touch with the top level, and the top level in Europe is NextGen. It is the Champions League for youth and that is interesting.
"What is also interesting is that it contains some good information. France is good in youth-team work, Spain is very good in youth-team work - if you look at the trophies those two countries have won in the last 15 years you will be absolutely amazed.
"So for us to be confronted with those clubs who have a reputation of having good youth-team work, like Marseille or Athletic Bilbao, is fantastic."

Arsenal were among the first tier of English clubs to gain Academy status, just before the 1998/99 season, and the Academy has produced a steady stream of talent every year since.
There are well over 50 Arsenal Academy graduates now playing professional football at league level, and below we take a look their progress. The list is in order of the players' ages, and we have only included players who appeared in Academy football from the 1998/99 season onwards, therefore some notable names such as Paolo Vernazza (now with Barnet) are not included.
There are also many other products of the Gunners Academy playing for various sides at non-league level, such as Hassan Sulaiman, Alfie Kamara and Nerada Bernard to name just three, that are not listed here. Neither are former schoolboys like Shabazz Baidoo (now at QPR).
We have though, listed current Arsenal first-team players who are either recent Academy graduates or are still in the Academy fold. Many of the players below were part of the FA Youth Cup winning sides of 2000 and 2001, or the Under-17s and Under-19s Academy League championship-winning teams of 1999/2000 and 2000/01 respectively.

Green Bay Releases 2012-13 Schedule
By: Jill Wunrow ( @JillWunrow)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Green Bay women's basketball head coach Kevin Borseth released his team's 2012-13 schedule on Monday, a 30-game schedule which features six nonconference opponents that appeared in postseason play last season. Four of Green Bay's first five opponents earned a spot in a postseason tournament in 2011-12. A complete list of the 2012-13 schedule can be found here.
Full season ticket and Pick 5 packages are on sale now with the Green Bay Athletics Ticket Office. For more information and to order tickets, please call 920.465.2625 or visit the athletics department offices in the Kress Events Center.
For the 26th consecutive season, Green Bay tips off its season on the road. On Saturday, Nov. 10 the Phoenix travels to Northern Iowa for a 2:30 p.m. matinee, looking to extend its four-game winning streak against the Panthers. Northern Iowa enters the 2012-13 season as the Women's Basketball Invitational runner-up.
Green Bay will host Central Michigan in the first of a two-game series Saturday, Nov. 17 in its home opener at 2 p.m. at the Kress Events Center. The game will also be the first at the Kress for new head coach Kevin Borseth who leads the Phoenix for the second time in his career. Central Michigan finished its 2011-12 campaign with a 20-16 record after being edged out of the first round of the WNIT. It will be the first time in 19 years the two teams meet.
For the third consecutive season Green Bay will once again compete in a regular season tournament over the Thanksgiving holiday as it travels to Cancun, Mexico Nov. 22-24 for the Cancun Challenge, competing in three games in three days. The Phoenix will battle James Madison in the opening day game festivities at 5 p.m. before facing SEC opponent Missouri Nov. 23 at 5 p.m. Green Bay wraps up its play in the Cancun Challenge with a battle against Richmond at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 24.
While it will be the third time Green Bay and Missouri face each other on the court, the Phoenix has never played James Madison or Richmond who both played in the 2012 WNIT tournament. Richmond advanced to the second round while James Madison advanced to the championship game.
For more information or to book your package to cheer on the Phoenix, call Melissa Koza at (970) 672-0567 or email at: firstname.lastname@example.com. Additional tournament information and pricing is available here.
Green Bay makes a short return to the confines of the Kress Events Center on Friday, Nov. 30 when it hosts Indianapolis from the Great Lakes Valley Conference at 7 p.m.
Green Bay visits Central Michigan on Wednesday, Dec. 5 in its series finale at 11 a.m. CT before a quick turnaround to battle in-state rival Marquette on Saturday, Dec. 8 at 2 p.m. in Milwaukee.
For the fifth time in program history, Green Bay will face North Dakota State during regular season play. Owning a 4-0 record over the Bison, the Phoenix hosts the Summit League opponent Tuesday, Dec. 18 at 7 p.m. at the Kress Events Center.
Green Bay will look to extend its winning streak to four games against in-state rival Wisconsin on Sunday, Dec. 23 at 7 p.m., pending a time change due to the Packers potential flex schedule.
After a short holiday break, Green Bay travels to Wichita State Sunday, Dec. 30 for its final nonconference road game of the season. The Shockers finished third in the Missouri Valley Conference last season while advancing to the second round of the WNIT. The Contest will be the third meeting between the two teams and the first since 2002.
The nonconference slate concludes at the Kress Events Center and tips off a three-game homestand. Reigning Atlantic 10 Conference regular season champions St. Bonaventure will visit the Phoenix on Saturday, Jan. 5 for a 2:00 p.m. tip. Last season the Bonnies were edged in the A10 conference tournament championship game and advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.
For the third consecutive season Green Bay will open Horizon League play at home as it hosts Detroit Tuesday, Jan. 8 in a Horizon League Championship rematch. It will be the second time in three seasons the Phoenix will battle the Titans in its opening conference game.
The Phoenix hosts Wright State Saturday, Jan. 12 to wrap up its opening conference homestand before tipping off its longest road stretch of the season beginning at Cleveland State (Jan. 17) and Youngstown State (Jan. 19) followed by Valparaiso (Jan. 26) and Wright State (Jan. 28).
Five of Green Bay's games in the month of February will be played at home beginning with UIC (Feb. 2) before hitting the road to Loyola (Feb. 7). The Phoenix will then have a four-game homestand, its longest of the season, beginning with in-state rival Milwaukee (Feb. 9). Cleveland State and Youngstown State will visit the Kress Events Center Feb. 14 and Feb. 16 respectively before Valpo wraps up the homestand Feb. 23. Green Bay wraps up February competition on the road at Detroit on Feb. 28.
The final month of regular season Horizon League play for the Phoenix will feature a contest at UIC (March 2) before it hosts Loyola (March 7) in its regular season home finale. Green Bay wraps up its 2012-13 regular season schedule at Milwaukee March 9.

Hi, this topic has surfaced in a number of issues here and has a personal interest for me esp. in recent years.
The purpose of this thread is twofold: 1. Provide studies and research indicating that mental illness, especially depression, has a physical basis, or the contrary.
2. Individuals' (your own or someone else's) rationale for this viewpoint or the contrary one.
And a third topic might be personal experience which is relevant and helps to form your view in one way or the other.
An interesting distinction might be that between psychosis and pathology, and whether these are interrelated. The reason for this is that many psychological/mental problems are pathological in nature (having to do with thought and habit patterns that lead to impractical or even insane behavior). This, it seems to me, is rather clearly not biological in basis. Psychosis I think has more to do with beliefs a person holds (they are God, so and so is trying to kill them, etc., and flagrant hallucinations and their misinterpretation. Nor do I see a physiological basis for this, it seems natural for me to "presuppose" that these things come from the mind. The former psychosis I described of false beliefs I think can be linked to pathology in which case it too would seem to lack physiological basis. This still leaves hallucinations. And there is also anxiety, fear, hostility, anger, denial, confusion, and lethargy or weakness.
If someone can add to this list it would be appreciated, and I am sure someone will add lowness or depression, which however might be said to be a combination of the above symptoms.
So, I'm curious and skeptical about why something that is called mental illness and seems to be mental in nature is now being said to have a physiological basis.
There is one thing I do not wish to see in this thread, and that is appeals to authority. If you wish to mention and include what someone else has said or argued or studied, that is fine, just no "I think it because so and so or this group said it."
Lastly, good luck and I hope this thread doesn't get out of hand!

Click for "Microbes After Hours" videos
This past week saw the report of the construction of the first chemically synthesized genome that was inserted into a pre-existing cell that then expressed the genome's phenotypic properties and was capable of continuous self-replication. The implications for microbiology can be profound. For example, can microbiology now "own" synthetic biology? This work may also raise philosophical issues with broad social and ethical implications.
Watch Jeff Fox, features editor for Microbe magazine, talk with Clyde Hutchison from the J. Craig Venter Institute, San Diego, and Jeffrey F. Miller, University of California-Los Angeles, about this achievement and its potential.

- The NSVRC Outraged by Eminem's GRAMMY Nominations!
The NSVRC Outraged by Eminem's GRAMMY Nominations!
January 9, 2001
Contact: Susan Lewis,
National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC)
1-877-739-3895 Ext 102
Last week the Rap performer, Eminem received four nominations to the 43rd GRAMMY Awards, including Album of the Year, for Marshall Mathers LP. Selections from the album such as Kill You and Kim depict the rape of one's own mother, throat-slashing, knives, profanity, sodomy, and includes lines such as: "There's a four year old boy lyin'dead with a slit throat in your living room, ha-ha," and "NOW BLEED BITCH BLEED".
As this nation struggles to reduce crime rates, eliminate drug use and end violent victimization, sexual and otherwise, the 43rd GRAMMY Awards and its sponsors are promoting the international recognition of what Emimen's own website calls a mind, "violently warped and vulgar." The website for the Recording Academy explains that its mission is "to positively impact the lives of musicians, industry members and our society at large." Karen Baker, Project Director of the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) wonders how lyrics like: "Just bend over and take it like a slut, ok ma" positively impact our society at large? Baker says "creative censorship is not at issue when violence, rape and sexism are being upheld, applauded and honored as an artistic achievement." Eminem wails "I invented violence you vile, venomous, vomital bitches!" If, as the Academy asserts, awardees are honored not for sales and chart position but solely on artistic and technical achievements, then the lyrics of Eminem's creations carry great sway as the reason for the nominations.
The Marshall Mathers LP, released in US on May 23, 2000, topped 7 million in sales by September 15, 2000. Although these violent, sexually abusive lyrics have been widely disseminated through worldwide record sales, according to Baker, " there is still a need to question the fundamental responsibility of the music industry and its sponsors for promoting them." She asserts that "singing the songs and buying the songs differ significantly from honoring them." The Academy, and its sponsors, must take responsibility for applauding and honoring performances that contrast sharply with the mission of the Recording Academy, the promotion of society's health and safety, and decades of bipartisan efforts to reduce crime, violence, and sexual assault."
The Recording Academy is also a cofounder of the National Coalition for Music Education, an advocacy group that among other things, strives to promote the influence of music and other arts on child development." The National Sexual Violence Resource Center, dedicated to strengthening the support system for sexual assault survivors, serves as a national clearinghouse for resources. Ever mindful of the prevalence of sexual violence in society, Baker asserts that the entertainment industries must bear some responsibility for judgment and self-regulation in this highly technological age. The GRAMMY Awards are telecast annually to an international audience of over 1.5 billion in 170 countries.

John I tend to feel that the tree branch in front of the entrance is bad advice but what would I know?Quite a few bees would equate to all of your field bees!I would move one of them back to the original site. Any strays will fly into it then move it to the new site the correct way e.g. a few feet at a time or move the a few km's away then back to the new site.Good luck.Yanta
More bad advice.
Moots John has it worked out now.Bad advice for Australian conditions.Hopefully for John's sake his hives aren't too badly weakened.Kanga 7 metres is different to 100 metres.Yanta
I am lucky I have a friend who has a property about 10km away, he has lots of trees. I moved two weak hives over there about 1 month ago, and brought them back last night, they seem to have really enjoyed their stay there, built up nicely. When I moved them they were weakened by a damp, shady location so they had to be moved.john
Last night I moved two hives about 100m. I followed advice to place tree branches at the entrance to make bees reorient.However, when I let them out this morning, quite a few field bees drifted back to the old location.I put an empty hive (frames and foundation) at the old location for now.It looks like most of the drifted bees are from the green box (slightly weaker of the two hives).But I not sure what to do next? I was thinking of waiting until this evening and move the empty box with field bees and place it on top of one of the green hive?Maybe I should move the green hive back to the old location for now? Then the bees that did manage to reorient will be without a home.cheersjohn

99 Explorer sport 4wd ready to rock $2500
I need to sell my explorer to fund the next round of tuition. I would like to keep it, but so it goes. I am new to GL4x4 but I have been on xceedspeed forever so I know how buying and selling on forums works.
This is ready to get someone thru a Michigan winter, or a financial tough spot where you need something cheap that will just go. Post or PM me with any questions. No, its not perfect, but nothing in this price range is, and mechanically this is ready to go. Turn key and drive.
Unlike most of the explorers, or cars on CL for under 3000, this one is truly ready to drive. It doesn't need "little things" like brakes or tires, as some ads suggest. This is ready to drive for the winter no questions asked.
*1999 Explorer Sport. The truck has 155,000 miles on it. It has the SOHC motor, not the older OHC powerplant that is less fuel efficient and reliable. Truck gets around 18mpg driving reasonably on the highway.
*It has every option Ford spec'd on an explorer. Leather, power seats, windows, moonroof, locks, and remote entry, optional 16" alloy wheels, factory crossbars, cruise control. The interior has no rips or tears, but the usual wear and tear from an older vehicle. Good clean condition overall. Sunroof works perfectly and doesn't leak. Optional foglights that work. Power mirrors that work. New jvc stereo with cd/mp3 aux input. $200 not including installation. Works perfectly. Original ford am/fm/cd included with sale as well.
*The truck has a never used factory tow package, and a BRAND NEW never used Solid class III 2" hitch in the trunk right now. You can't find one of these for under $160 anywhere locally. Direct bolt on installation.
*The truck is in excellent mechanical condition for its age. In my time of ownership it never failed to start, let me down or stranded me anywhere. Perfectly dependable in all weather and conditions.
*Factory 4wd, consisting of 4 auto (2wd until wheel slip detected), 4hi and 4low. According to the tranny code this truck has a FACTORY LSD in it. Rare for an explorer, and something that makes it truly capable in all weather conditions.
*7,000 mile old Hankook dynapro AT/M tires in 265/75/r16. Please, google these tires and the reviews they have. Considered by many to be the best all around truck/suv tire. Purchased from discount tire, extremely little wear, they look like new. They are over $518 for four tires, EXCLUDING any mounting/balancing disposal. No off brand garbage here.
*New monroe sensa-track struts in all four corners, professionally installed.
*New pads, rotors and brake system work on all four corners done 40 miles ago! (just enough driving to bed them in). Over $300 just in parts, not including labor. Caliper pins greased and serviced. I am not going to sell a truck with shit brakes.
The car has some light rust on the very bottom of the tailgate. This is endemic of explorers. It is an easy location to touch up for the future owner, but seeing as all Fords of this vintage have this problem, it is a large part of the low price. Only affects the bottom inch of the tailgate. The trunk latch is loose, it is fully functional, just needs a diy mounting bracket.
I am asking 2500 OBO for the truck. Once you actually start looking around, its hard to find a 4wd suv without an immediate issue to take care of in the 2500-2800 price range. I am serious about selling, so if you are serious about buying make a reasonable offer. I am Located in Ann Arbor and often end up in the northwest part of the state. Please contact me via email or pm. Including "red truck" in the subject line of your email will make sure that I don't delete it as spam. As you can probably tell, I take pride in selling a truck that still has lots of life left for a new owner as a get around town car, reliable winter transportation, or a shorter wheelbase suv that can handle two tracks and backwoods driving while still having good on road manners.

For the last 150 years Museum Victoria and its predecessors have engaged artists to illustrate the diversity of the natural world. Scientific illustration remains central to contemporary museum practice, even as it continues to evolve.
Calling on the traditions established over the last 300 years, contemporary artists use museum specimens to create finely crafted illustrations in extraordinary detail.
Peter TRUSLER (b. 1954)Palorchestes Azael, skull2009–11Alkyd oil on gesso over paper
Research into Australia's long-extinct species has demanded new illustration techniques. Artists who had previously depended on observation now have to use imagination and reasoning to depict animals that no one has ever seen in the flesh.
Palorchestes was a large marsupial that browsed on shrubs. The first fossils discovered were thought to be those of a giant kangaroo, but it became clear that the tall narrow skull, long claws and powerful legs belonged to an animal quite different from any living creature.
This is one of an extensive series of images by the palaeo–illustrator Peter Trusler, who reconstructed the head of Palorchestes from extensive research. Having composed an image of the skull from several angles, Trusler drew versions with muscle tissue, eyes, lips and nose to create a complete picture of this intriguing animal.
Simon HINKLEY, Ross FIELD & Ken WALKERButterfly eggs2004–12Digital macro photograph
Museum scientists are engaged with taxonomy, the classification of species. Calling on a comprehensive library of scientific illustrations and the museum's collection of representative specimens from around the world, taxonomists describe a specimen of a new species in minute detail. That individual becomes the 'type' specimen to which all future members of the species will be compared, wherever they are found.
Minute detail is often now revealed through new technology. Ross Field is an honorary associate of the museum and an entomologist dedicated to documenting each life stage of every Victorian butterfly species. His passion has taken him to the top of many hills, along riverbanks and through parklands in pursuit of female butterflies as they lay their eggs. Simon Hinkley's extreme close-up photographs of Ross's egg collection allow us a glimpse into this microscopic world.
Rhyll PLANT (b. 1953)Plaice Mat (Platessa vulgaris)2004Woodblock, ink on paper
Since the days of Audubon and Gould, scientific disciplines have become increasingly remote from the fine arts. Artists like Rhyll Plant seek to unify the natural world, bringing science and art into balance.
Plant trained as a taxonomic illustrator before turning to printmaking to express her ironic take on the 'plaice' of nature in the modern world. Using museum specimens as subjects for visual puns, her images are as accurate as they are amusing.

Hi guys, where can I get Jango boots in the uk pls? Is there a boot that's not screen accurate that can be modified? Cheers
Hi guys, where can I get Jango boots in the uk pls? Is there a boot that's not screen accurate that can be modified? Cheers
Haven't found any good ones in the states either. Need someone like ManofWarStudios to do a run of them if there is enough interest.
I'll probably resort to some type of tactical police/military style boot myself....
I need me to get a pair of boots as well
Only a couple of members here have tried to do runs & both times there were long waits & I am not sure if everyone received their boots. I was lucky enough to snag a set on the secondary market. Your best bet would be to do a search & find the old threads & see what other members have come up with for decent look alikes. Buffalinos comes to mind.
They are, just not many still around except the oddball sizes. I've seen some military styles that could at least look good , but not accurate as far as the soles go....
The CAboots are not accurate and also 2.5 times what they should cost.
Most people are not looking at your feet anyway, so a half decent pair of boots will work. Spend the time on the Helmet, armor & vest & make sure the FIT is right & you are most of the way there. You can have all of the best parts but if they are not fitted correctly they are going to look off.
Second that BKBT! Personally Ive given up on going screen accurate with the boots. Make sure the parts look right AND fit right. BKBT....I'll be getting with you in a few weeks for some leather goods...can't wait.
Buffalinos are the way to go! These are the ones i have. Just add some r&b to the heel and your set : ).
@dynamic1....any place around to buy those? Google search seems near useless....
where to buy ???some website???
Some info on this thread might lead to something for you.
Just sent them a message thru eBay..... We'll see what they have to offer.
Hope they come back with good news! Will gladly pay to get them shipped to the uk! í*½í¸
I hear ya brother. I'll call them tomorrow, but I'll update thread if I hear anything.
i called already she doesn't have any buffalino sentinel in stock i've thought about ordering some from crow but i've seen bad news threads about him lately
Yeah. Saw that.... I'm not in a major hurry, due to Boba being my priority, so I'll continue to wait before I make a decision.
Not the most important part of the costume but it would have been nice....I got everything sourced except for these and the blasters....
The search continues.......
Lucky we're not bounty hunters, we wouldn't be earning much
There is a pair of bed stu on eBay Size 10.5 check em out
whats the link?
Here is the item number 111212085207 good luck.
Too big for me! I'm a uk 8, which
I believe is 8.5 in the US???
Gonna see. Just bought em
oh man that is a steal for those boots...........you did great getting them.
I would double your money right now if you wanted to.
Man I hear you! I'm hoping they are what was in the picture, but I know my luck....

Research Summary
Our primary focus is on real time monitoring of ion transport mechanisms in epithelia, using high-resolution microscopy. One of the crucial problems facing all epithelial cells is the control of the intracellular milieu. In an effort to maintain ionic homeostasis, epithelial cells have devised a variety of ion channels, transport proteins, and carriers to regulate and maintain the intracellular ionic concentrations. To further understand how ions are transported in epithelial cells, we have developed a variety of optical techniques to continuously monitor intracellular ionic concentrations in real time. Using high-resolution video or confocal microscopy we are presently able to monitor intracellular Ca2+, Na+, K+, Cl-, pH, and membrane potential. We are currently investigating various aspects of renal tubule and gastric tissue ion transport in intact renal tubules and gastric glands. We also are characterizing the secretory and reabsorptive properties of the colonic crypt, with a special focus on diarrheal disease.
Specialized Terms: Gastric Acid Secretion; Colonic Fluid Transport; Renal Physiology; Intracellular Ion Activity Measurements; Calcium Sensing Receptor; Diarrheal disease; electrophysiology; CFTR; AMPKinase volume regulation
Extensive Research Description
We are focused on 3 main areas; gastric ion transport in health and disease, intestinal ion transport in health and disease, and renal physiology. For gastric ion transport we are focusing on means to modulate acid secretion and reverse erosion. We use a combination of natural products and biochemical modifications to treat acid disease at the cellular level. For studies of intestinal ion transport, we are focusing on how the calcium sensing receptor(CaSR) can modulate fluid transport during toxin induced diarrhea. In addition we are investigating means to prevent ischemic injury by activating ionic pathways using the AMPKinase. Finally we are trying to prevent IBD/IBS associated epithelial injury in the gut by Casr activation . For the renal studies we are interested in acid base homeostasis along the nephron, and are now investigating the role of the CaSR in modulating fluid secretion and renal stone formation.

Writing about the U.S. presidents has been a popular thing to do throughout most of the history of the country, but especially recently, whether individually or collectively. Here's a rather large volume that has two parts: 1) The Making of the President, 1787, and 2) Presidential Profiles. I found the profile section to be particularly enjoyable. For each president, author Davis gives biographical milestones, quotations, fast facts, a lively summary of the administration, online resources for further information, and a final analysis and grade. This latter item provides the capstone to each chapter. While I don't agree with all of the ratings, I was interested to note the rationale for each. Some are obvious and expected -- Washington and Lincoln get an A+. Three in a row get an F -- Fillmore, Pierce, and Buchanan. But there are some surprises among the rest. This is a nice work of history presented with an entertaining flair.

So will your engine over time
Yellow lights mean go faster!!!
Car and Driver have it listed at 4.7 2011 WRX review
As far as faster than 911's a Base 911 does 0-60 in 4.1. Gets in the S models and 4s and they are in the 3's. get into turbo's and the GT3 turbo is 2.9
Most Austin Martins aren't builts for speed, even so they are still 0-60 in low 4's.
Our WRX's aren't in this category. We own a solid car that stock is super quick! the New Camaro only shows .1 faster in 0-60 and has about 130hp more. Remember they test with Pro's so it would be different per driver on the track.

I'm sure your average driver wouldn't be able to get a 4.7 0-60. The best way to do that would be launching, and that's like suicide for your trans.....
Now give me someone else's car and ask if I can get a 4.7 0-60...I'd be more willing to try

Hellooo '11 REX
It's been popular to use the quarter mile and 0-60 times to prop up the WRX for many years...AWD gives a nice bump at the beginning of an actual drag strip run, but in real world, already moving situations, a stock WRX accelerates about like a V6 Altima.

I'm new to the forum, and just bought my '11 WRX today; traded in an '04 RX8 for it (0-60 time: 5.7s), and the WRX is DEFINATELY faster... I surprised myself today when I actually made my own head jerk as I shifted into 2nd! LMAO... wasn't expecting the amount of power (or the torque)!
For sure - Take it easy for the first few thousand miles. If you want the car to last make sure you don't beat it...ever. Once you're past the break-in, drive it hard, but still don't beat it. Be smart about it and drive it right.
Also it's very important, especially on turbocharged cars, to keep it under 3,000-3,5000 and out of boost until the engine reaches full operating temp.
Just a couple nuggets of wisdom
BTW - Congrats on the new car!

When you're buying plants at your gardening center, you'll see a tab that might say, "Plant Hardiness Zones 4-8." Hardiness Zones puzzle a lot of people. Once you understand how they work, you'll see how useful they are.
Years ago, the US Department of Agriculture devised a method to help people judge what plants could survive the average low temperatures in different parts of the country. The Department created a map of North America broken into 11 zones ranging from cold to warm. Zone 1 includes Fairbanks, Alaska and the northern islands of Canada. Zone 11 includes most of Hawaii. The bulk of the US mainland ranges between zones 4 and 8.
Most plants and seeds are sold with the optimal Plant Hardiness Zones indicated. You might have a microclimate that could handle a wider range of plants, but you'll have better luck if you work with plants rated for your area. To see the complete Plant Hardiness Zone map, go to www.usna.usda.gov/Hardzone/ushzmap.html

Hello All!
I'm still in the middle of making my metal gauntlets. They are almost finished and I will post updated pics soon. But this weekend I began work on Boba's jet pack. I used the WOF templates. It is being held together with Goop. (I love that stuff!)
I've looked at many of your progress threads for tips and inspiration. I know it has some problems but I will work on them. I also realize that something this heavy (and delicate) will need to be reinforced with fiberglass. I will have to wait until the warmer weather to do that outside. Let me know what you think.

Senior Project
For my AP English class we are doing senior projects. For my senior project I decided to research dog collars. I constructed this research paper on all the information I gathered. I needed to post my paper somewhere for it to be viewed by others who may be interested in it. I also made a video as my product. It's on YouTube at this address SPJY Training a Dog with a Prong Collar - YouTube

Humane Dog Training
Becoming a dog owner is life changing. Your life soon becomes centered on taking care of that dog and making sure he has everything he needs to be happy. He needs food and water daily, constant bathroom breaks, plenty of exercise, toys, and affection. You try to do what is best for your furry friend but sometimes doing what you believe is best backfires. Your dog gets overly excited at seeing other dogs so you avoid places where other dogs may be around. You dread walks because your dog drags you down the street, making a should-be happy trip a nightmare. Even inside your home your dog possesses bad manners: jumping on guests, barking at all hours of the night, getting into the trash bin, chasing the cat. You're at your wits end and know that you need a better way to control your canine.
You start looking at different gadgets at the pet store but have no idea what would help you correct your dog or what any of them are used for. How does a head collar work? Would a choke chain actually help anything or just make things worse? Are prong collars humane or would it just make my dogs life miserable? I had all these questions and more, so I did some research. I looked in books, online articles, and training videos. I even talked to dog trainer David Harris of Animal Resorts and Training Center who trains dogs for people all over the world. Through my research I found out many things about dog training collars and harnesses, but the most important thing I discovered was that none of them are inhumane or "cruel" to use on dogs. The only cruel thing about dog collars and harnesses is when they are misused by people. If you believe that a training collar or harness is necessary to improve your relationship with your dog then you need to know which training aid will be most helpful and how to use it properly.
Traditional Dog Collar
It is necessary for all dogs to have a simple traditional collar. Most domestic dogs wear a classic collar, either by itself or coupled with another training collar or harness. There are two types: buckle and quick release.
Quick release collars, as their name implies, can easily be removed and put back on the dog. This allows the dog to be freed or gained control of quickly in an emergency, unlike a buckle collar which will need extra adjustments. In some situations the buckle collar has proved to be dangerous. If a dog is wearing a buckle collar and becomes caught on something it is nearly impossible to free the dog without cutting the collar because to release the collar it must first be tightened. If a dog in this same situation was wearing a quick release collar, the dog could easily be freed by a quick pinch to the connector of the collar.
Buckle collars tend to be the better choice for large dogs as they are less likely to break when they are pulled on by a strong canine. The quick release collar can become loose or the strap can become undone when a dog pulls hard on the leash, which could create a very dangerous situation. For this reason I believe that the buckle collar is the safer and more secure choice for a dog that might pull or lunge with the leash on.
The traditional collar is one of the most widely misused canine gadgets. It is very common nowadays to see a dog dragging their owners down the street. While it can be funny to see a dog "walking their owner" the struggle is not fun for the dog or its owner and is a result of poor training and a poor dog-handler relationship. With proper training most dogs can learn to stay safely beside their handler. For some dogs, clicker and food training is enough to keep them happily at their leader's side, but others require help from some form of training aid, such as the martingale or the prong collar.
When choosing a collar for a dog make sure the hardware and thickness fit the size of the dog. Don't pick a collar too heavy for a small dog and don't pick a collar that is too thin for a big dog. Big dogs require thicker collars that will not injure their necks. The collar should be tight enough so that it can't slip off, but loose enough as to not restrict breathing. The rule of thumb is that you will be able to fit two fingers underneath the collar. It is also possible to measure a dog's neck to find out what size collar it needs. Just add two or three inches to a dogs neck size to get its collar size.
When you buy a collar you should also consider getting your dog a nametag. The nametag should have a minimum of your phone number on it so that you could be contacted if your dog is lost. In some places it is required by law for a dog to wear a nametag.
Martingale/Limited-Slip Collar
The martingale or limited-slip collar is a collar for dogs with narrow skulls, such as a greyhound or an afghan hound and for dogs that have a habit of slipping out of their collars. This collar is designed to fit looser than the traditional collar but will tighten when pulled on so that a dog cannot slip out of the collar if it becomes scared or excited. It also serves as a safer more effective alternative to a choke chain for corrections.
A martingale collar is a flat collar made with two loops. The larger loop, which is adjustable in size, is placed around the dog's neck and adjusted to fit loosely. The leash is then clipped to the central loop. When the leash is pulled on the smaller loop is pulled tight, which tightens the larger loop around the dogs neck. When the leash is pulled on even pressure is asserted around the dog's neck instead of only the front. This encourages them not to pull too hard on the leash because they dislike having the collar tightened.
I suggest the martingale be used as an alternative to using a choke chain on a dog. The martingale can give the handler the same ability to do corrections as the choke, but the martingale is limited to how tight it can become. This prevents the dog from being choked or choking itself. The corrections given are gentler and more understood by the dog. Neither of these collars should be left on the dog when they are not being handled. Both have a greater risk than a traditional collar of getting caught on something or being slipped off. It's necessary to have a collar or harness on your dog at almost all times so that you can grab hold of them in case of an emergency.
Head Halter/Head Collar/Gentle Leader
The head halter is more of a halter than a collar because instead of fitting on a dog's neck it fits on their head. One strap goes around the base of the dog's head, directly behind its ears. The other strap goes on the dog's muzzle, right under the eyes. The two straps meet under the dog's chin, which is where the leash is attached.
The halter is praised by many positive dog trainers who claim that "the halter is the most humane way to train a dog." There are many things wrong with that statement:
1. The head halter is not a training tool, but instead it is a management tool. Some people like to call the head halter the gentle leader because of the control it gives them over their dog. I prefer the name that many trainers give it, a Band-Aid. Because that's exactly what it is: a cover-up for the real problem between a dog and its handler. The dog can easily be "managed" by the head halter, which twists the dog's head to the side while putting pressure on the dog's very sensitive muzzle. This action can be accomplished with very little effort by the handler.
2. The head halter can cause significant injury to a dog and continuous discomfort every time they wear it. A dog must be conditioned and bribed into wearing a head halter, while other types of collars, even the prong, are accepted without refusal. The first time a dog wears a head halter (and the second, and third, and probably three hundredth time) they will paw and claw at the halter and may even buck around on the leash. The properly fitted head halter is very tight on the dog's neck and muzzle, restricting the dogs ability to breath, yawn, pant, eat, drink, or play fetch(oddly enough people still claim that it is NOT like a muzzle). The halter is fitted right below the eyes, a very sensitive area and is often rubbed sore by the halter.
Many dogs pull on the head halter. They constantly hold their head in a twisted position when walking which will cause injuries to the dog's neck after a while. Aside from the dangerous habits the halter can cause, the motion of the halter itself can cause neck, spinal, and/or, nerve damage to the dog. The jerking sideways motion of the dog's head and neck when it lunges, or even when they handler simple pulls the leash to stop or turn the dog, can cause these painful injuries in the dog's neck and back.
3. The head halter is not a way to positively train a dog. There is nothing positive about the constant discomfort caused by the head halter. A dog which appears to be calmed by the halter is often simply in an uncomfortable and unhappy state. There is no good way to control a dog with a head halter on since pulling on the halter not only causes discomfort for the dog but may lead to injury.
I see no case where the head halter would actually be necessary for a dog. There may be a few dogs that are already good on the leash that seem to really not mind the head halter, who could wear it on a walk, but most dogs will not benefit from its use. Watch the video "Why the 'Gentle' Leader Isn't!" on YouTube to see an example of a dog who is noticeably uncomfortable in the halter and has not learned to heel, even after using the head halter for five years.
Prong/Pinch Collar
The prong collar is probably the most misunderstood training device for dogs. It may look like some crazy torturing device but is actually safer to use on a dog than a head halter or choke chain. In fact it is not harmful to the dog at all (except maybe the dog's mental state if used improperly).
The prong collar, also known as the pinch collar, is a metal collar made up of several prong links which can be added or removed to fit the dog's neck. The prongs are not sharp; instead they are rounded at the points and apply an even amount of pressure on the dog's neck when pulled on. The collar has a limited slip chain that tightens the prongs around the dog's neck when pulled or provide a "pinch" when giving a short and sharp correction. The leash can also be attached to both loops of the chain so that the collar will not tighten around the dog's neck.
This collar is often used by the average dog owner and by professionals training working dogs. The collar is used often by trainers of working dogs, such as police, army, and personal protection dogs. It is also used in the common home to control dogs that tend to lunge or pull on their leash. A dog put in the prong collar will learn to stay with its handler on walks and not to pull on the leash after only one use. The dog learns that pulling or lunging of the leash will cause them discomfort and staying by you will relieve that discomfort. After just one use the dog will become happier and safer on walks because they will stay by your side instead of strangling themselves trying to pull on the leash. This makes the handler much happier too because they no longer have to have a constant battle of tug-a-war or worry about the dog lunging forward and getting loose.
Some people refuse to use the prong collar because they don't want to cause their dog any discomfort. Is the dog comfortable when its dragging its owner down the street, stuck in a kennel all day so that it doesn't get into things it's not supposed to, or put down because it was deemed unmanageable and untrainable by a "positive reinforcement" trainer? Of course not! A split second of discomfort from a correction for bad behavior is always the better option. This way a dog can know its limits and know the consequences of testing those limits. One quick flick of the leash allows you to communicate to your canine and make life easier for both of you.
Slip/Choke/Check Collar
The choke collar, also known as the slip collar or check chain, is simply a metal chain with a hoop on either end. The chain is thread through one of the loops so that when the leash is attached to the outside loop the collar will tighten when pulled on.
Unlike a martingale or prong collar, the choke chain has no limit to how tight it can become around a dogs neck. The intended use of the choke collar is to literally choke the dog for bad behavior. This use of the collar, intentional or not, may cause damage to the dogs trachea or brain. Extended periods of pulling on the leash and cutting off the animal's air supply cuts of oxygen to the brain. Using this device, even for just small corrections, has the potential to cause irreversible damage when used regularly.
If a choke collar is used on a dog, never allow it to be left on the dog while the dog is not being trained. The loop of the collar is known for getting caught on things. As soon as it gets caught the dog will feel trapped and start to panic. The dog's instinct is to pull back which will cause it to choke itself and lead to more panic. If the dog is not freed it could pass out or strangle itself. Never leave a choke collar on an unattended dog.
Corrections done with the choke collar, or any collar, should be fast tug and release. If possible, have a trainer show you the proper way to do a correction and how to do them at the right time. Timing is everything when it comes to dog training. If you don't tell them what they did was right or wrong directly after they do it then they won't understand or learn.

Teaching Philosophy: Can creativity be taught? When I took modern dance lessons as a child, we spent the first half of each class practicing technique (craft). Then we took a break, lay on the floor, and closed our eyes. Music played softly in the background, and our teacher began to tell a story about a snowflake falling, a caterpillar, a woman planting corn. When we wanted to, we got up and danced how we felt - and of course when we did, we used the techniques we'd been practicing. I believe craft and creativity are inseparable. I teach craft. Then I do everything I can to encourage creativity.
My special interests in poetry include translation, point of view, the free verse line, traditional forms, form in free verse, the invention of free verse, poetry and painting, poetry and science. I have a BA in Philosophy and an MA in Physical Anthropology, so I'm always glad to have students with backgrounds outside literature.
Awards: Two NEA Fellowships in poetry, the Isabella Gardner Poetry Award, the Academy of American Poets Prize, the Discovery Prize awarded by The Nation, as well as other literary prizes.

BOSTON -- Investigators believe Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev built pressure-cooker bombs while watching his 3-year-old daughter at his Cambridge apartment, and that his wife was out working when most of them were assembled, a federal law enforcement source said.
The FBI is continuing to meet several times per week with Tsarnaev's wife, Katherine Russell, 24, whom they are showing photographs and documents as part of their probe into the bombings, the source said.
Most popular Nation stories
Russell worked long hours away from home as a health aide, and it remains unclear whether she had any knowledge of her husband's bombmaking, the source said. Since the Cambridge home was raided after brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were identified as suspects, she has been living with her parents in Rhode Island.
A copy of the online al-Qaida magazine Inspire, along with other jihadist materials, was found on Russell's computer, which she may have shared with her husband, the source has said.
"Devices appear to have been built while he was at home with the child," the source said. Those included the two pressure-cooker bombs detonated April 15 at the Boston Marathon, killing three people and injuring more than 260 others.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died in a gunfight with authorities April 19, a day after authorities released photos of the suspects.
He did not hold a job at the time of the bombings and had recently turned away from his amateur boxing career as he became increasingly religious.
Neighbors said they recall seeing him occasionally walking around outside with his daughter.
"He was home with the baby, so you saw him with her now and then," said Angelica Wojciech, who lives in the same Cambridge apartment building as the couple. "She worked and he took care of the baby. He looked like any other dad doing that. Just normal."
Russell's lawyer has said she had no knowledge of the marathon bombs, but investigators are still examining what she knew about her husband's activities, and what she spoke with him about on the phone after the FBI released his picture, the source said.
Forensic tests by FBI explosives experts have detected residue from explosives in the bathtub and kitchen sink in the couple's apartment, the source said.
The results, according to the source, appear to corroborate Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's statements to federal investigators that the brothers built the bombs in the apartment.
He has told investigators that he and his older brother learned to make the pressure-cooker bombs from instructions in Inspire.
Meanwhile, lawyers for Robel Phillipos, 19, one of three arrested college friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, filed court papers Saturday proclaiming his innocence and calling on a judge to release him from jail at a hearing scheduled Monday in federal court here.
The lawyers argued Phillipos' presence on the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth campus on the day the other friends allegedly got rid of evidence from Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's dorm room was a coincidence and that it had been more than two months since he had spoken to the bombing suspect or the other two arrested men.
