The cost will about $50,000, which includes nearly $14,000 for scheduled maintenance, nearly $30,000 to replace a turbocharger, and some additional costs, Henson said at the Board of Commissioners' meeting.
The generator uses methane gas, produced by underground garbage at the landfill, to produce electricity. Tennessee Valley Authority pays the county about $50,000 a month, on average, for the electricity.
Prior to the generator being installed, the annual cost to maintain and monitor the landfill's capped sites on Shope Ridge Road was more than $250,000 annually. These procedures are required by state and federal regulations.
Henson said the generator is fast-approaching its scheduled maintenance at 10,000 hours of operation. He said the maintenance could be performed for $13,781, but Nixon Energy has also recommended that the equipment's $29,099 turbocharger be replaced during the scheduled maintenance.
The new turbocharger must be ordered from the company that builds the generator in Austria, Henson said. Once the new turbocharger is installed, the old one can be sent to be overhauled, for additional costs, and would be available as a replacement the next time maintenance is required. Having a replacement on-hand would also mean the county would not lose two weeks worth of electricity sales to TVA, Henson said.
In other business at the Feb. 19 meeting, commissioners took action to condemn certain parcels of property, if necessary, to extend the sewerage work in the Three Notch Road area.
"This is a necessary part of the process that must be followed if easements must be obtained by condemnation," county attorney Chad Young said. To date any such action has been reached by mutual agreement with all parties concerned, he said.
Commission chairman Keith Greene said, "It is our hope that this resolution does not mean sewer lines will be run across private property without the owner's consent. Hopefully, we can reach agreement and move forward without going to court."
Sidney and Carol Irving, whose property was one of the parcels voted on, were on-hand and told commissioners they were currently in negotiation with Ringgold city manager Dan Wright on the matter.

From MP's sister site: MTB
DescriptionTennessee Wall is one of the premier trad climbing destinations in the southeast. Located just outside of Chattanooga, it features hundreds of great routes on beautiful hard sandstone. There�s something for leaders at all levels here, from trad novices to the hardest of the hardcore. (There�s even a few sport routes, but they�re not for the faint-hearted.) T-Wall truly has enough variety to keep you climbing for years. GuidebooksA new guidebook published in 2010 is the first such guide dedicated solely to T-Wall. The Tennessee Wall: A Rockclimber's Guide by Rob Robinson will probably be considered the authoritative guide to this area, given that its author is the godfather of T-Wall climbing. The Dixie Cragger�s Atlas by Chris Watford is an alternative guidebook to have on hand. The DCA has a �pocket� edition for T-Wall alone that will lighten the weight in your backpack. If you need climbing gear, hit Rock Creek Outfitters in Chattanooga. Getting ThereTennessee Wall is located in Prentice-Cooper Wildlife Management Area. From downtown Chattanooga, take US 27 north. About a mile after crossing the Tennessee River, exit on 127 north (Signal Mountain Road). Continuing toward Signal Mountain about 1.5 miles, turn left on Suck Creek Road (27 west). Continue about four miles (past a cement plant) to a bridge over Suck Creek and make an immediate left onto Mullens Cove Road (aka River Canyon Road). Follow this road through a residential area along the river for about six miles to the campsite parking lot for T-Wall. The trail to the crag starts a short distance from the parking lot. Access IssuesThere are seasonal hunting closures in the spring and fall. Sneak in and you risk a hefty fine, so don't do it!

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Washburn is great for ANY TYPE of student. If you are shy, there is plenty of events that are suitable for ANYONE that easily gets people involved. If you love the family type feel, Washburn has the feeling everywhere. If you are afraid, you'll be another face in the crowd, WRONG, people remember you and your name, and they will definitely recognize you by that.
Tips for prospective students Be prepared to receive a ton of free shirts and make a ton of new friends. Washburn is a small campus, so it's almost like a small family. It's an easy going and friendly environment, so never feel afraid to say hey, because you'll receive a smile and hey right back.
Bang for the buck Washburn is known to be a but pricey, but compared to other schools around, such as Emporia, KSU, and even KU, Washburn is nothing compared to them. Also, for the price you pay, you receive even better quality. The campus is well kept, you pay for smaller classes and those you receive, such as, the professors know you by your name not just a number! You definitely get out more than you pay at Washburn University.
Am enjoying being here Washburn has a great environment, socially, and academically. The professors and other students are especially nice. Everywhere you go, everyone is constantly smiling and almost always saying hello. The freshman are not treated as the new kids on the block. They are treated as if they have been there for years themselves. Washburn constantly has events that anyone is allowed to come and participate in to get invovled, and they are enjoyable too.
Am learning a lot I knew that coming into college was expected to be a bit tough compoared to high school, which I never really had to work hard in high school to succeed well. Although, just from my first week of classes at Washburn, I learned more than I really ever expected. In high school, I took the typical classes, such as biology and such, so I decided to take them again in college for my Gen Eds. I walked away learning more from that one class than I ever did in a year's worth in high school. The lectuers are easy and understandable and when going back through my notes, I never questioned what I had wrote down, because I easily remembered. I learned way more than I expected to ever learn.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Never have I felt threatened while on campus.
Greek Life A lot of Greek fraternities and sororities.
Clubs and Activities No secular student alliance.
Great for these types of students History majors and Law students.
What to do for fun It's Topeka, Kansas. Don't expect much.
Food and Dining The Union's food is just...meh. Edible.
Academic Rigor It's definitely intellectually challenging and engaging here, but not the the point where one couldn't maintain a steady job and still take 12-15 hours of classes.
Tips for prospective students Getting registered here is tricky sometimes, but the easiest way to do it it to go to Morgan Hall on 17th street and go to the registrar's office.
In three sentences It's a personable, localized college where teachers value learning over pass/fail rates. The academic advisors are all available at the convenience of the student. I really have been able to develop personal relationships with my professors, who have proven to actually be invested in my education!

Categories Comments Campus Safety We get bulletins that go to our emails and if you want to your phone through text. We have a police station on campus and police cars regularly patrol the campus. So I would say we are pretty safe.
Greek Life I don't know much about our Greek life except that the houses are located close to the dorms. We also have a dry campus (which means no alcohol allowed on campus) so if you are looking for the drinking and partying type Greek life, this is not the place.
Clubs and Activities I would say that there is a wide variety of clubs and activities available to students. Also most activities on campus are free to students.
Great for these types of students If you focus better in small class environments. If you like to get to know your professors.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Passed the Yager stadium by the Rec center and Art Building is this little pond and bridge and during the summer and spring it is filled with fish and frogs. Its a nice little difference from the rest of the campus.
Bang for the buck They are decently priced at about $5,000 to $7,000 a semester if you are living on campus and depending on which dorm you live in. If you are not living on campus it is a lot less. Also it depends on your credit hours.
What to do for fun Well there are things going on on-campus all the time. There is a rec center with rock climbing and holds sports competitions. There are sporting events as well. Also located not too far from campus is Wannamaker street which is where most of the restaurants and shopping is located, including a mall.
Food and Dining Food can have variety during the week but on the weekends you are not given much choice. It is also over priced.
Dorm Life There are three dorms, the LLC, West and Kuehne. The LLC is a large complex that is connected to the Union. West and Kuehne are father away from the Union but have larger rooms than the LLC.
Academic Rigor The teachers will challenge you but if you are dedicated and focused most won't mind helping you if you need it.
Tips for prospective students If you are living off campus, get to campus at least 30 minutes before your class. Construction on the parking lots is making the parking a little difficult.
In three sentences Small classes make understanding subjects easier. Small campus lets you get around easier to classes. Dorms are located close to the classrooms.

Great for these types of students All students would find what they are looking for in education at Washburn, especially nursing and law.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus In the main building there are activities, food, tvs,and your information sources
Bang for the buck The cafeteria
What to do for fun The school always has something going on, plus there is movie theaters and bowling in the community.
Food and Dining Food is good, lots of variety
Dorm Life I don't live in the dorms, haven't heard of anything bad or good
Academic Rigor Washburn is very academic oriented.
Tips for prospective students Be persistent about your financial aide. Utilize all the campus has to offer.
In three sentences Provides a very strong medical education. Campus isn't too big to walk to classes. Offers in class and online education.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Students who are focused and don't require a party atmosphere.
Tips for prospective students Inquire about the neighboring state, in-state tuition program.
Bang for the buck The in-state rate is great, but the out-of-state will definitely turn one away.
Am enjoying being here I have to say that Washburn lacks in the social arena. Although, there are some campus things to do and to be involved in, social opportunities in the local area are limited. But at this point for me, my focus is on my academics; therefore I am content.
Am learning a lot Washburn provides a variety of programs and majors. If you really know what you want to do and they have your program, it is the place to go. The school is continuinally working to improve and refine the programs they offer so they are competitive with other universities. Their Business School is currently highly ranked with U.S News and World Report.

Categories Comments Campus Safety extremely safe. i have yet to see a dangerous situation.
Greek Life not as selective as you would think. it's not just all the really attractive women and beer downing guys that are in these fraternities and sororities. for the most part they are just filled with you average college kids who want to be apart of something big! there are way more people in them than i would have expected!
Clubs and Activities there weren't a lot of activities that have really impressed me other than the one i am apart of currently (young life). the activities themselves are not as student friendly as i thought they would be, to the extent that they are filled with (sometimes not all the times) reckless fraternity guys who only care about being the loudest most obnoxious guy at the event. but if you can handle that, than i would say you are fine.
Great for these types of students any types of students.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus there is a great little room in the living and learning center that is called the reading room. it is a quiet secluded place that very few people know about and is a great place to get some much needed homework or studying done without all the loud noises that typically are heard in college dorms.
Bang for the buck washburn, despite their high academic tradition, is insanely affordable. the total cost for room and board, tuition and other random fees that colleges throw at you is around $12,000 a year. that is ridiculously cheap!
What to do for fun as vague as this sounds, the answer really is the sky is the limit. there are so many things ranging from intermurrals, an incredible workout facility, hanging out with friends, or enjoying nice walks or runs through gage park. it is a very serene and comforting place to live.
Food and Dining the cafeteria, is ok, and is definitely better than most high schools. but even if the cafeteria doesn't have what you need, the library believe it or not has an incredible health solution for food, and it is pretty affordable.
Dorm Life i would say it isn't increddible, and if you are from topeka, living at home is probably your best option, it saves you a ton of money and you get to participate in almost all the same activities you would normally if you were living in the dorms.
Academic Rigor it's rigorous depending on what you take. for me, wanting to study nursing, all of my science classes are very difficult, and require me to stud at least two hours a day, just for one class! (thats my anatomy class). despite the seemingly impossible task of being able to survive, i promise that the work is worth the reward. i have learned more in this class about my body than i ever did in high school, mainly due to washburn's outstanding science field.
Tips for prospective students 1. study at least two hours per credit hour taken 2. get involved on campus with the various campus activities 3. get to know your teachers, because at washburn, they really do care about your academic success.
In three sentences 1. superior scholastic opportunities 2. small class sizes 3. extremely friendly and helpful faculty

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Washburn is great for the kind of students that want or need an environment where they can actually interact with their professors, and where the staff is fully willing to work with a student should any unexpected issues arise that may disrupt a student's education.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The majority of Washburn's international student population is Chinese, so every year Chinese New Year is celebrated a Chinese buffet is offered in the student union.
What to do for fun Washburn offers lots of on campus activities. The first week of school is welcome week and it includes barbeques and giant inflatable blow yup toys. Also, fun events such as 'All Night at the Rec', where you can tie-dye your own t-shirt, are held all year.
Food and Dining The food offered by Washburn is decent. There are several choices and they vary depending on the day. The student store also supplies a wide selection of snacks, frozen food as well as fresh fruit and beverages from Starbucks coffee.
Dorm Life The dorms at Washburn are really nice. All dorm suites have at least one bathroom in them, so no communal restrooms. Wifi is supplied and the Wasburn Village offers apartment style living complete with kitchens in every suite and two bathrooms that include bathtubs.
Academic Rigor It all depends on the professors you have, but Washburn sets some pretty high standards. Most all of the classes I've taken have been fairly fun though.
Tips for prospective students If you plan on living on campus, all of the dorms are great. When it comes to choosing a meal plan, go with the smallest one. It will be more than enough. You'll have tons of money left over at the of the year to spend in the student store.
In three sentences Washburn University is a comfortable and caring place. The campus may be small, but so are the classes. My favorite part is actually getting to talk to my professors EVERY day without having to wait in line.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck It's an affordable school. Currently, I am only going to pay $1,500 a year. This is a real bargain compared to other colleges in the area!
What to do for fun Topeka isn't just a midwest town! It has over 120,000 people. We have many stores, food chains, two movie theaters, a mall, Lake Shawnee, and much more! Also, First Friday Artwalk downtown at the Jayhawk Theater is always exciting.
In three sentences Washburn has a campus which could either be perceived as modern and big, or as close knit. There isn't much of a wild atmosphere, but Topeka isn't overly boring. That said, it isn't a huge crime spot either.

Food and Dining The Union has many different options daily for you to choose from!
Dorm Life The dorms are very wel kept and clean. They are not too small and the good thing about them is, they are all suites so you do get your own bathroom!
Academic Rigor At Washburn It's not too incredibly hard, so it's very easy to succeed!
Tips for prospective students For Students I would definitely say manage your time wisely and prioritize your things.
In three sentences Washburn is a great school for students looking to get involved. Also the class sizes are not big so it's very easy to get one on one attention from your professor. Another thing is, Washburn is not too expensive for a 4-Year University

Categories Comments Campus Safety You can always feel safe at Washburn. located around the campus are emergency buttons for when you are walking late and night and dont feel safe. There are also patrol officers that are always walking around. And if you want to feel extra safe sign of for ialert text on your phone to get texts about any emergencies on campus.
Great for these types of students Washburn is great for students who want to feel at home and part of a community. At larger campus's you can feel lost because there are so many student. But at washburn the classes are small and your bound to meet some one to become friends with
What to do for fun If you want to have a little fun check out the schedule, washburn always has activities going on like concerts and a fun festival on talk like a pirate day. The climbing wall is also a great place to enjoy your self, bring a group of friends and challenge each other to a climb. And if you want to relax a little take a walk in the calming park near the recreation center that features a path that goes directly over a pond with beautiful gold fish.
Food and Dining the dinning hall at Washburn has a wide variety of choices including: chinese, salads, sandwiches, burgers and fries and more. Each food area prepares the food at your order so it is fresh and warm. The seating area is custom for you. There is outside tables as well as balcony and dining tables and booths.
Dorm Life Washburn has a great housing community the living learning center is a wonderful place to live. Most of the rooms are 4 person suites and each room houses 2 people. The building is also connected to the union were the student dining area is. Living learning house also has a computer room, study room, reading room, laundry room and a recreation area.
Academic Rigor Washburn is a tough school, but in the right way. The teachers strive to challenge their students but always make sure that they have all the information that they need.
Tips for prospective students When looking at Washburn as a college be sure to look around campus, small campuses aren't for everyone. Also be sure to check out all resources that Washburn has to provide such as there recreation center and there climbing wall.
In three sentences Washburn University has a small home campus. Because of this you are sure to see people and around and get to know your teacher. All the students and teachers are friendly and helpful and always try to answer your questions.

Categories Comments Campus Safety I give this 5 stars because I feel extremely safe on this campus. There is a large police presence on the campus and it is well-lit. There are police on bicycles that ride around all day making sure that all is well.
Clubs and Activities Washburn University offers a wide variety of clubs and activities and are worth seeking out and joining. There are many club fairs and events to help get you exposed to the different extracurricular activities that are located on the campus.
Great for these types of students Washburn University is known for their law school and the school of nursing. This does not mean that it isn't good for those not pursuing the previously mentioned majors.
Bang for the buck You get a lot of bang for your buck. The tuition is reasonable and the education expectations are extremely high! I think it's a great alternative to a large university that charges more and you seem to get less individual attention.
What to do for fun West Ridge Mall is nearby just a few minutes from the campus and there are basketball, football, and volleyball games for all to enjoy! Many people find time to talk with friends and enjoy each other's company.
Food and Dining Washburn offers many choices for food and dining. The union provides many options for food choices and provides plenty of seating and room to have a comfortable dining experience with friends!
Dorm Life I rated dorm life as a 3 because honestly, I haven't lived at the dorms at Washburn. I have heard from others that they absolutely love it but cannot accurately rate this unless I have experienced it myself.
Academic Rigor I rated this 4 stars because the classes are not easy but they are completely mangeable. Each professor has a different style of teaching and some may be considered easier than others. At Washburn, most of the professors have their doctorate degree in their specific subject which means that they really know their information and they know it well!
Tips for prospective students Prospective students should expect to work hard and learn. The professors will push you but they want the best for you. Be ready to soar in your education and most of all, have fun!
In three sentences Washburn University provides excellent professors and resources to provide an education that has extremely high expectations. I absolutely love Washburn because of the small class sizes and personal interactions with my professors that you do not receive at a larger university. The one on one attention allows me to ask questions and learn more than I have ever been able to before.

Categories Comments Food and Dining The food isn't always great, but there are places close to campus that have amazing food.
Dorm Life The dorms are connected to the cafeteria and it is the most wonderful invention ever for bad weather. There are also other dorms on campus that are like apartments.
Academic Rigor The classes are challenging- as they should be. The teachers will answer any questions you have. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
In three sentences I love the campus and the people. Everyone is more than willing to help and the library staff is fantastic. The campus is small enough to be able to walk everywhere in under 10 minutes and feel like home but large enough to always see new faces.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The Campus Police at Washburn University is second to none. Although I personally like to give some of the officers fishing tips every once in awhile. The Washburn Campus Police are as professional as it can get. That is why the crime rate is next to zero on campus. I would give the campus safety at Washburn five stars.
What to do for fun There are usually some kind of events that are taking place during the academic school year at Washburn University. Whether watching a sporting event or a play in Garvey Hall or listening to a variety of music at White Concert Hall (which are all free for Washburn students) there is usually something to do on campus.
Food and Dining The food at Washburn University's Student Union is very diverse. Of course Cheeseburgers will often fill the appetite of most any tired college student, including myself. The cafeteria at Washburn also offers an abundant menu for the health conscience student. I give Washburn's cafeteria four stars.
Dorm Life I live off campus, but from what I have seen I would give the dorms at Washburn University four stars.
Academic Rigor Washburn University academic standards are just as as high as any other major college in the Midwest. Being able to meet with professors when I had questions or problems save my academic career. Compared to bigger schools, that have bigger classes, Washburns smaller classes is what I need.
Tips for prospective students The biggest tips that I can give any student who will attend Washburn University is: 1. That all students should take advantage of the free tutoring. 2. Take advantage of the free health Clinic. 3. Visit the Academic Advisor's Office. 4. All sporting events and student recreation facilities are free for Washburn students.
In three sentences As a 49-year-old non-traditional student I have found Washburn University is more than appealing. The small class settings have made my college life rewarding, yet challenging. I truly recommend Washburn University for not only the non-traditional student, but for any student who really wants the most an education can offer.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Washburn University has its own campus police that are a part of Topeka Police Department. They have a jurisdiction of 5 blocks and patrol the University everyday to ensure safety of students. If you want, they will also escort you to class if you do feel unsafe.
Greek Life I am a President of a local fraternity here at Washburn University, Alpha Delta. Joining greek life has been one of the greatest choices and experiences I have ever had. I have friends now that I will know for the rest of my life. So many fun things go on in our community and I enjoy every minute of it. There is no hazing or bullying and no alcohol is allowed on campus.
Clubs and Activities Over a hundred on campus clubs for just about any student. You can create your own club with six other friends. Many students also like to work out at the SRWC with a fully operational gym, running track, rock wall, exercise classes, and basketball courts that can also be used for volleyball.
Great for these types of students Great for students wanting to major in Pre-Law, Business, Nursing, and Pre-Med.
Bang for the buck Cheaper tuition, but classes that I have heard are harder than KU. Many great professors teacher at Washburn. Also the $43 student fee allows you access to every campus sporting event and every other event on campus.
What to do for fun There are many activities and clubs on campus with events going on every week. I recommend joining greek life to establish lifelong friends and connections as well as a learning experience of growing up.
Food and Dining The food is overall pretty good although I question how healthy it really is. If you don't have time to sit down, you can always visit the Corner Store to pick something up fast.
Dorm Life I haven't actually experienced dorm life at Washburn because I live in a fraternity house. However, I have heard it can get loud and rowdy. Our dorms are also notorious for having fire alarms pulled or going off at least once a week.
Academic Rigor There are a few classes I have taken already that have tested my limits. As long as you study hard and stay focused on your classes, you will have great grades.
Tips for prospective students Study, listen, and learn whatever it is you are passionate about. Always seek help when needed and remember to have fun as well.
In three sentences A nice and affordable university where extremely great teaching and learning takes place. There are many on campus activities to take part in for students. Students can get much needed one-on-one time with professors due to small class sizes.

Either indoors or out, this collection of our coolest snowman-themed recipe will brighten any winter day.
Creating this chocolate snowman cake is fun for the whole family. My daughters enjoyed watching the snowman's personality emerge as we decorated him with candy and fruit leather.
Submitted by Lisathecakeladie from Orlando, Florida
Invite your kids to shape this classic white bread dough into snowmen. When the snowmen are baked, the kids can tie on ribbon scarves and present their edible sculptures to teachers and friends.
Brownie snowmen are fun, but you can also make other shapes for different days.
This cute snowman on a stick can be roasted and decorated at the skating party, or eaten raw.
Have fun making popcorn snowmen with your kids.
Playful pancakes will make breakfast a blast.
This year, cap off your holiday baking with a whimsical wintery treat -- a batch of melt-in-your-mouth Mickey snowmen.
These banana-based snowmen are decidedly more tropical than the frosty variety, and kids can assemble their own if you prepare the fruit for them.
This wistful snowman, made from candy melts, appears to be going the way of winter, and we have a feeling he'll soon disappear altogether.
These delicious, smiling sippers are simple to make.
This cheery fellow won't have a chance to melt — he'll be gobbled up too quickly! And as is true of any snowman, dressing him is half the fun.

It's unknown if Cory's best friend, Shawn Hunter, would be in consideration for a potential new series, but we sure hope so. The character, with his leather jacket and floppy haircut that turned actor Rider Strong into a major crush for fans, appeared in all 158 episodes of "Boy Meets World."
After the series ended in 2000, Strong continued acting in shows such as "Kim Possible" and "Pepper Dennis," and movies such as 2002's "Cabin Fever." The Columbia grad (English, '04) and Bennington College M.F.A. has moved behind the camera as of late, having written and directed projects along with his brother, Shiloh, such as 2008's "Irish Twins."
Betsy Randle (Amy Matthews)
After playing the mom of Cory Matthews, Amy, Betsy Randle has kept a low profile. The married actress and mom of two was last spotted on the now-defunct series "Charmed" in 2004.
Will Friedle (Eric Matthews)
Will Friedle played Cory Matthews' lovably dense older brother, Eric, for seven years. Once the show ended, Friedle kept up a career on the small screen, although viewers might not have recognized him. Now 36, he's done voice work on "Batman Beyond," "Kim Possible," "The Penguins of Madagascar" and "Thundercats" as Lion-O.
William Russ (Alan Matthews)
William Russ, now 62, moved on from playing even-keeled dad (and pretty randy husband!) Alan Matthews to roles in both daytime ("The Young and the Restless") and primetime ("Boston Legal"). He's most recently appeared on the CBS new series "Vegas."
Danielle Fishel (Topanga Lawrence)
Danielle Fishel came to fame playing '90s dream girl Topanga Lawrence, who went from aggravating know-it-all to Cory Matthews' sweetheart and, at series end, his wife. Fishel tried her hand at film with "National Lampoon Presents Dorm Daze" after the series ended, but has moved away from acting in recent years.

VECTASTAIN ABC-AmP Kit, for Mouse IgG, Chemiluminescent Western Blot Detection
VECTASTAIN ABC-AmP Kit, for Rabbit IgG, Chemiluminescent Western Blot Detection
The DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/Chemifluorescent Substrate is a unique formula based on acridan chemistry. The DuoLuX™ Substrate provides the following advantages:
Very high sensitivity
Prolonged and intense light emission
Chemiluminescent or fluorescent detection
Permanent fluorescence
The DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/Chemifluorescent Substrate is supplied for either horseradish peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase development and can be used for western, Southern, northern, or dot blots, or for ELISA applications. This substrate is about 10 times more sensitive than the alkaline phosphatase substrate BCIP/NBT and about 100 times more sensitive than the peroxidase substrate DAB.
The DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/Chemifluorescent Substrate for alkaline phosphatase (SK-6605) is supplied in ready-to-use form, consisting of 100 ml of substrate solution.
Chemiluminescent properties
Light emission of the DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/ Chemifluorescent Substrate occurs continuously over a long period of time for both the peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase substrates. With either substrate formula, reacted DuoLuX™ Substrate luminesces in the blue range with a peak emission at 453 nm. Unlike other chemiluminescent substrates, blots can be reexposed to film many times over an 8 hour period to optimize band intensities or resolution.
Serial dilutions (1:2) of mouse IgG were resolved by PAGE, transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane and detected with the DuoLuX™ Substrate using either the Alkaline Phosphatase-based VECTASTAIN
ABC-AmP™ Kit (lower left) or Peroxidase Streptavidin (lower right). Graph shows prolonged light emission characteristics of the DuoLuXTM Substrate with each enzyme.
Fluorescent Properties
In addition to its chemiluminescent properties, the reaction product of the DuoLuX™ Substrate is also fluorescent. Fluorescence can be recorded with a digital imaging system or a conventional camera months after chemiluminescence has faded. The excitation maximum is at 405 nm, but other wavelengths (254 nm and 365 nm) also excite. Maximum fluorescent emission occurs at 453 nm. For fluorescence detection, nitrocellulose is recommended due to the intrinsic fluorescence of nylon. Acquisition of fluorescent signal requires a much shorter exposure time than chemiluminescence, often a fraction of a second.
Western blot visualized by fluorescence using the VECTASTAIN
ABCAmP™ Kit with the DuoLuX™ Substrate. Serial dilutions (1:2) of rabbit IgG heavy chain were resolved by PAGE, transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane, and detected with biotinylated anti-rabbit IgG, followed by the VECTASTAIN
ABC-AmP™ Kit with the DuoLuX™ Substrate. [A] Fluorescent detection by image acquisition (1 second). [B] Fluorescent image of the same blot as shown in [A] obtained 12 months later. (Same 1 second acquisition time.)
Applications: Protein Detection
The DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/Chemifluorescent Substrate is ideal for development of protein and nucleic acid blots. Complete kits are available for western and Southern/northern blot development (VECTASTAIN
ABC-AmP™ system and Vector® UltraSNAP™ Kit, respectively.)
For western blot applications using chemiluminescent detection, the sensitivity using either alkaline phosphatase or peroxidase is approximately 1 pg of protein. Film exposure times using peroxidase are generally 5-30 seconds; exposure times for alkaline phosphatase are 1-5 minutes. Using fluorescence detection, sensitivities are less than 10 pg of protein. For western blots, DuoLuX™ Chemiluminescent/Chemifluorescent Substrate can be used on either nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes, but in general, nitrocellulose is preferred.
The VECTASTAIN
ABC-AmP™ kits contain the DuoLuX™ Substrate and specially formulated reagents to optimally detect proteins on western blots using an amplified alkaline phosphatase system.
Western blot visualized by chemiluminescence. Serial dilutions of rabbit IgG heavy chain were resolved by electrophoresis, transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane and detected with biotinylated antirabbit IgG, using the VECTASTAIN
ABC-AmP™ Kit with the DuoLuX™ Substrate. Chemiluminescent detection was captured by exposure to film.
Western blot visualized by fluorescence. Serial dilutions (1:2) of mouse IgG were resolved by PAGE, transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane, and detected with biotinylated anti-mouse IgG, Peroxidase Streptavidin and the DuoLuX™ Substrate. Fluorescent image was obtained in 0.07 seconds.
Applications: Nucleic Acid Detection
For developing Southern, northern, or dot blots using alkaline phosphatase, typical film exposure times range from 30 seconds to 10 minutes with sensitivity ranging from 100 fg to 10 pg of nucleic acid. Using peroxidase, exposure times are somewhat shorter and sensitivities are slightly less than those for alkaline phosphatase. Both nitrocellulose or nylon membranes can be used.
The UltraSNAP™ Detection System for Nucleic Acid Blots contains the DuoLuX™ Substrate and specially formulated essential reagents to provide optimal detection of biotin labeled nucleic acids on blots using an alkaline phosphatase system.
Southern blot of the E. coli phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase gene. Various dilutions of a 1.3 kb PCR product of the E. coli ppc gene was labeled with PHOTOPROBE
(LA) Biotin and hybridized to immobilized Tsp509 I-digested E. coli genomic DNA. Probe was detected using Alkaline Phosphatase Streptavidin followed by DuoLuX™ Substrate visualized by chemiluminescence.

Pelvic pain is located between the belly button and hips. If it lasts for six months or more it is called chronic pelvic pain. It is often difficult to figure out what is the source of the pain. Pelvic pain can be caused by problems in the:
- Female organs
- Intestines
- Nerves
- Bladder
- Prostate (in men)
- Retroperitoneal space (space between the diaphragm and pelvis)
If you have chronic pelvic pain, it's important to see your doctor.
Chronic pelvic pain can be caused by a wide variety of conditions, including:
Gynecological conditions
- Endometriosis
- Pelvic inflammatory disease
- Fibroids
- Pain when ovulating
- Pain during menstrual period ( dysmenorrhea )
- Adenomyosis
- Cysts
- Ectopic pregnancy
- Pelvic congestion syndrome
Female Pelvis OrgansFrom left to right: the bladder, uterus, and colon. Nerves are shown in yellow.© 2011 Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
- Gastrointestinal conditions
Urinary conditions
- Interstitial cystitis
- Urinary tract infection (UTI)
Psychological conditions
- Depression
- History of being abused (physically or sexually)
Risk Factors
These factors increase your chance of chronic pelvic pain. Tell your doctor if you have any of these risk factors:
- Pelvic girdle syndrome
- Pelvic inflammatory disease
- History of sexual abuse
- History of pelvic surgery
- History of pelvic radiation therapy
Since there are many causes of chronic pelvic pain, symptoms can vary. Tell your doctor if you have any of these:
- Constant pain
- Pain that comes and goes
- Dull achiness
- Pelvic heaviness
- Pressure
- Mild pain
- Severe pain
- Pain with certain activities
- Rectal urgency (urge to defecate hits suddenly and intensely)
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. You may be asked to keep a pain journal to help your doctor diagnose the pain. You will be asked to write down when your pain occurs, how it feels, and how long it lasts.
Once the source of your pain is identified, you may be referred to a specialist. Pelvic pain is best diagnosed and treated in a specialized clinic by a team of specialists.
Tests may include the following:
- X-rays —test that uses radiation to form an image; used to look at for abnormalities in the pelvis
- MRI scan —test that uses magnetic waves to form an image; used to look for abnormalities in the pelvis
- CT scan —type of x-ray that uses computer to form an image; used to look for abnormalities in the pelvis
- Laparoscopy —a thin, lighted tube inserted into the abdomen to look for infection or disease
- Cystoscopy —a thin, lighted tube inserted into the bladder to look for abnormalities
- Sigmoidoscopy —a thin, lighted tube inserted into the rectum to look for abnormalities
- Intravenous pyelography—type of x-ray that uses dye to look at the kidneys; used to look for damage or disease
Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. Options include the following:
Chronic pelvic pain is treated based on what caused it:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—to treat pain and reduce inflammation
- Opioid pain relievers (morphine-like medications)—used for severe pain
- Antibiotics—given if there is an infection present
- Antidepressant medications—sometimes used to treat chronic pain
- Antiseizure medications—helpful in certain situations (especially when pain is caused by nerve damage)
- Birth control pills—used to treat pain caused by certain gynecological conditions (in some cases of chronic pelvic pain)
Complementary Therapies
The following have been used to treat pelvic pain:

This year we are saving even more lives from cancer and
YOU MAKE an IMPACT!
The journey to end cancer starts with a single step. The American Cancer Society invites you to take that step with us by joining the global Relay For Life movement. When you walk to end cancer at a Relay event, it's your opportunity to not only honor cancer survivors and remember loved ones lost, but also to raise awareness about what we can do to stay well from cancer and raise money to help fuel the world's largest walk to end cancer.
FIGHT BACK through research! THIS YEAR, selected Relay event(s) in our community are offering the unique opportunity to participate first-hand in a landmark new study, the Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3).The American Cancer Society will be enrolling people into CPS-3, a long-term study that will help researchers better identify the lifestyle, environmental, and genetic factors that cause or prevent cancer. Please spread the word and visit the Cancer Prevention Study-3 website to find an enrollment location near you and for more information about how to participate in research today for a cancer free tomorrow! Dedicate Luminaria bags in honor or in memory of a loved one lost to cancer >>

Well, I've personally become too busy to constantly use the internet when I should be doing more important tasks such as assignments and homework. I'll probably visit and login for a day in July as my third year of being here is approaching (Obviously in July). Other than that, you might see me in a few months.
Of course, you might find me on PR2 here and there when I'm slightly less busy.
I noticed a few members with the title of "Junior Member."
I'm just going to take a stab in the dark, are they members who are under 13? I have no idea.
Also, in my last blog post I stated my hand was cut, it has healed.
I was tasked to clean the backyard up so, without complaint, I did. After a while I got to a pile of various things like sharp rocks and seemingly safe leaves (And there were no shovels, yes, they were missing) and had to move them, so I went to pick them up with my left hand and after a few sharp pains, my hand was lacerated and obviously bleeding quite fast. Great safety, I know. It burns like some sort of twisted hell where your hand hurts.
In other news, a member of our schools
Shes been glaring at me for five minutes straight and it's starting to scare me. Hasn't twitched or meowed- Just stayed as dead as a rock.
Or a computer that can actually do things, unlike this tiny laptop which only has 2GB RAM and a Core i3 processor (@ 2.20 GHz), which struggles with most things. It might be cheaper to buy the individual parts than buying it straight out. Now to save and find out what I want exactly.
If my money didn't get stolen constantly (siblings), I would have at least $400 AUD by now but I have the slightly smaller $250 AUD. I'll get enough one day.

Maybe I'm being a bit maudlin, but I thought this chronicle of Robyn Michele Levy's experience with fighting two diseases, "Most of Me," was really funny — not only funny. It was also very sad and very clever, and it made me want to be friends with Levy, who is the author and main character.
"Most of Me" tells the true story of 43-year-old Levy as she copes with her diagnoses — Parkinson's Disease and, only eight months later, breast cancer. Without minimizing the realities of her illnesses, Levy finds humor in scary, sad circumstances.
Levy's memoir takes us through the madness of doctors, diagnoses, the stressors of family, and all of the accompanying trials of tests, medicines, surgery and recovery; she never pretends to be stoic, pleasant or up-beat. It is her "realness" that makes Levy so lovable, and renders her memoir so readable. This book also serves as a reminder of how the support of loving family and friends really does make a difference.
By the way, if I'm maudlin, I'm not alone. "Most of Me," Levy's first book, was short-listed for the 2012 Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour.

Manipulating data with in DSC fileset
mardi 18 octobre 2011 13:24
I have a requirement to manipulate the data with in a file that is added to a DSC fileset based on data available in another file (this can be added to a DSC fileset as well). I know that we cannot modify the data once the file is added to fileset and is sealed. Hence Thought to gather suggestions from experts with possible solutions on this. Key point with the solution is that it should be able to leverage entire cluster as the DSC file is existing on the cluster.

Hi Phani,
I'm not quite sure what you need, so perhaps you can clarify. However, a couple of pointers:
The normal approachs to 'extending' a fileset with new data are:
1. use DSC APIs to create a new fileset and use {DscFileSet.AddExistingFile()} to reference the existing files and {DscFileSet.AddNewFile() followed by a filecopy to the new file write-path} to attach new data.
2. use a HpcLinq query that creates a new fileset that has incorporated both datasets. You will likely use a binary operator such as Union(), Join(), or perhaps the binary-operator version of Apply if you need to do something more unusual.
If you use binary-Apply you will want to ensure that you get the right 'mode', being either fully-merged, fully-distributed or the left-distributive mode. I wont go into lots of detail here, but:
Merged binary-apply. Acheived without any attributes. Sucks all data to one vertex and runs your user-delegate once over all the data from each source.
Fully distributed binary-apply. Acheived by adding attribute [DistributiveOverConcat] to your user delegate. The datasets must agree on partition count n. n vertices will execute, each getting ith pair of the inputs.
Left-distributed binary-apply. Acheived by adding attribute [LeftDistributiveOverConcat] to your user delegate. The behavior is that the left dataset is left partitioned, but the right dataset is merged and broadcast in full to each vertex. if the datasets have nLeft and nRight partitions respectively, then nLeft vertices will run and each receives one partition from the left dataset and the entirety of the right dataset.
As you can see, the binary-apply gives you various controls, but if at all possible you should use the rich binary functions such as Join().

Thanks Mike for your detailed response and pointers. Will try them out and get back if required.
To clarify my requirement, I have one file with base data and another file with incremental data (both are flat files of which base data is in size of TBs and incremental data is of size in GBs). Now, we would want to manipulate the data in base file based on the incremental file (new records - records existing in incremental file but not in base file - to be inserted, existing records - records existing in both files - to be updated with data in incremental file in the base file i.e., replacing the record in base file with the one existing in the incremental file). This is my requirement.
Let me try to map my requirements with the pointers you gave and see if I can get something out of it.

Thanks for clarifying. Your scenario should work out OK if the frequency of your updates and ratio of updates vs new data are not extreme. However, if you are going to be processing your multi-GB updates frequently and/or there is a lot of update, then L2H simply may not be the right approach (random-access writes to a dataset simply isn't one of the core scenarios (yet)).
The general approaches I would consider:
1. design such that updates as add-only, and then using queries to resolve the multiple records that deal with a single logical data element. This can be used where later records can supersede previous ones (eg by tracking timestamp/sequenceID) and in general the store is just a long list of 'facts' such as 'item i cost x dollars on date d". Queries either take the latest data or just aggregate everything together. This works well for frequent small updates and when the queries can successfully combine all the records pertaining to one data element. It can also work well in other scenarios. There are many benefits to this approach. It starts to break down for large update volumes, but periodic compacting is a good workaround for intermediate cases.
2. create new datasets each time and retire the old. This is appropriate if your update volumes are large. You could perhaps use Join/GroupJoin to form groups of old data + new data for each data element, then resolve to single element each. Also consider using Union(a,b).GroupBy(). The choice of operators will likely depend on whether your data+update has many records per element, or strictly zero/one each.
3. update the data in-place via DSC. For some data and updates, it may be reasonable to use DSC operations only to perform the update. this would be "create new dataset" and use AddExistingFile where possible and AddNewFile for data that is being altered. If your updates are typically localized and very simple this might have lower overheads than using L2H to do the updates.

I just realized I had forgot to also mention the Concat() operator that was enabled in the " HPC Pack 2008 R2 Service Pack 3" beta release.
Concat effectively performs straight-forward DSC fileset concatenation in the middle of a query. This is particularly useful when creating complex queries as it avoids you doing query + DSC manipulations + query + .. and so on.
var mainData = context.FromDsc("..");
var newData = context.FromDsc("..");
var q = mainData.<operators>.Concat(newData).<operators>.ToDsc().SubmitAndWait();
Note however that using just data1.Concat(data2).ToDsc().Submit() will introduce some data copying as queries do not operate directly on the DSC store hence there is some movement from DSC to temporary storage and back again. For this simple type of data concatenation, direct use of DSC APIs will have better perf.

Although the flood waters have long since receded, it'll likely be a while before many new Yorkers can get back on solid financial footing. One issue is outstanding insurance claims for badly damaged homes and property.
"It is a historic volume of problems," said Governor Andrew Cuomo. "You have 360,000 claims, all coming in at roughly the same period of time."
View the governor's full press conference.
In a separate development, the City Council is teaming up with Mayor Michael Bloomberg to give property owners a break.
Homeowners will be given an interest free extension on their property tax bill. For those with severely damaged properties, the tax bill that was due in January is now due in April.
View the full press conference here.
"We know that the relief they'll provide won't make up for all the losses or stresses these homeowners have experienced, but we think they are the right thing to do in helping people get back on their feet," Bloomberg said.
Earlier this week, Governor Cuomo was criticized for comparing Hurricane Sandy to 2005's Hurricane Katrina, which hit the Gulf Coast. There were more lives lost in Katrina by a ratio of roughly 9 to 1.
If you've filed a claim because of the storm, how helpful was your insurance company? Do you think Governor Cuomo's executive order will make a difference? Read New Yorkers' thoughts.
Finally, the state will also set up an online report card system to rate the performance of insurance companies. It will be available at www.NYinsure.ny.gov. Governor Cuomo said he still has no plans to go down to Washington and lobby directly for federal aid the way Mayor Bloomberg did this week. The governor said he is taking his cues from Republican Rep. Peter King on how to proceed.
