Published September 1, 2006.
Exotic mushrooms and homemade pasta practically guarantee great mushroom lasagna—if you've got money to spend. But what if you have to rely on supermarket staples?
American-style mushroom lasagnas lose the mushrooms in a sea of tomato sauce and mozzarella. Italian-style recipes put the emphasis on the mushrooms, but many call for esoteric or expensive wild mushrooms as well as a lot of preparation time.
We wanted to make Italian-style mushroom lasagna approachable, which meant widely available mushrooms and no-boil noodles.
We set about to deconstruct the lasagna layers. For the primary mushrooms, we found that roasting portobellos concentrated their flavor. The texture of the sauce was a problem (our no-boil noodles sucked up all the moisture), but a very loose béchamel sauce had the right consistency, and attained substantial mushroom flavor when we replaced conventional chicken broth with the water used to rehydrate dried porcinis. We ultimately maximized the mushroom flavor by mixing in duxelles (sautéed, finely chopped button mushrooms) flavored with garlic and vermouth. But now we needed sweet, sharp, salty, and bright elements to balance the earthiness of all these mushrooms. Sautéed red onions and Parmesan cheese contributed all these flavors, and Fontina cheese added a complementary buttery nuttiness. Finally, we added a gremolata-like topping of minced parsley, basil, lemon zest, and garlic for complexity and freshness.

Viewing project changes - History tab
Clicking the History tab lets you view changes made to a project over a specific period of time (by default all changes made today). It includes a complete audit log of all project changes which you can filter according to the information you want to see.
Different team members use the History tab differently according to the information they need
- project managers may want to see how much work is being completed and to see who has been working on different features or bugs
- testers or QAs may want to see which bugs were fixed yesterday
- developers may want to see what recent changes have been made to the source files
- business analysts may want to see progress or changes made to their user stories
- technical writers may want to see which help topics have been reviewed during the week.
Viewing the History tab is a great way to see the areas of the project you've been working on over a certain time. You can use this information for time sheets, project reviews, stand ups, or if you've forgotten the name of a card you were working on. Generally speaking, use the History tab if you know what you're looking for, or you know when you modified a card. Otherwise use Mingle's search.
The Filter history component in the top right lets you filter the exact changes you want to see.
The top section lets you select
- whether you want to view only changes to specific project elements (cards, wiki pages or code revisions)
- for cards, the specific properties they currently have or have acquired during the timeframe specified in the top History for: section (i.e. Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, In all history)
- specific tags that cards or wiki pages currently have or have acquired during the selected timeframe.
The bottom section you can use in conjunction with the top section or on its own. It lets you select
- specific changes made to card properties within the selected timeframe
- specific tags that have been updated within the selected timeframe
- cards, wiki pages or code revisions made by specific people within the selected timeframe.
How to view project changes
By time
Click the History tab.
Mingle displays all changes made to the project during the last 24 hours (your local time).
If you want to view any project changes made longer than 24 hours ago, click a timeframe link at the top of the page.
Mingle updates this page to include changes made during the time you specified.
By type
If you'd like to view specific project changes, select options in the Filter history at the right of the page.
Mingle updates the History tab to display changes according to the filters you selected.
- If you'd like to include only changes made to cards, and/or wiki pages, and/or code revisions, select the checkbox(es) at the top of the Filter history component.
- If you'd like to view changes made to cards or wiki pages according to specific tags they currently have or have acquired during the timeframe you selected, click the Add tags link and type the tag name(s).
Click the Add tags button to add them to the search filter.
By filter
If you'd like to view cards changed to a specific property value, or tags changed to a specific tag value within your selected timeframe, select filters from the bottom part of the Filter history component.
You can select these on their own or in conjunction with the values you selected at the top part.
Mingle updates the History tab to display changes according to the filters you selected.
With the 3.1 release, Mingle provides a new option, (any value), as a value in the history filter. If you select (any value) for any property listed in the history filter, you will be able to view any changes that have been made to that particular property.
This is especially helpful if you only want to know or be notified when a certain workflow you are interested in is changed. e.g. Story status, Bug status.
By user
If you would like to view changes made by a specific team member, select their name from the drop down menu at the bottom of the Filter history component.
Mingle updates the History tab to display changes made only by this team member.
- If you'd like to receive updates about project changes and events that occur based on the filters you've selected, you can subscribe via email or Atom feeds.
You can also select not set in conjunction with a card's changed value to see cards that went from not having a property value to acquiring one.
Subscribing to project changes
In the bottom-right of the History tab is a Watch this? component. Here you can subscribe via email or Atom feeds to changes made in the project based on the information currently displayed on the screen (i.e. based on the filters you've selected).

Recommended Restaurants by Groupon Customers
At Horizons Restaurant & Bar, owner and classically trained chef Mark Melikian uses farm-fresh ingredients to craft his seasonal menu of upscale American and European-inspired cuisine. He loads Maine lobster onto a plate of baked mac and cheese and pairs oven-roasted Atlantic cod with scampi-style shrimp and roasted baby red potatoes, which should be eaten quickly before they start teething. Other dishes include fried Camembert cheese with honey Dijon mustard for dipping and a nine-ounce, pan-blackened filet mignon with melted gorgonzola and a marsala-accented demi glaze. Each of Chef Melikian's artistic plates complements the elegant ambiance of his dining room, where stained glass chandeliers and fresh flowers create a gentle, romantic environment.
From their kitchen stations on the second story of the Bay State Hotel, the chefs at Mulino's Restaurant plate up hearty portions of sophisticated Italian cuisine. Piled-high plates showcase tender linguine, spaghetti, and fettuccine clinging to gorgonzola cream sauce, italian sausages, veggies, and julienned strips of chicken. The aromas of wine-coated salmon and grilled beef tenderloin also fight for the attention of diners who are taking their time with their wine, served by the glass, bottle, or through a penne noodle. Desserts such as crème brulée and tiramisu sweetly seal the meal.
The grill masters at Caminito Argentinean Steakhouse stay true to their culinary roots with a distinctly South American cooking tradition, which begins with hormone-free meat from cows that were fed a vegetable-only diet and raised on pastures instead of in cages. Manning a cast-iron grill stoked by locally sourced hardwoods, the expert chefs fire-kiss select cuts of beef to smoky perfection, infusing filet mignons, skirt steaks, and short ribs with rustic flavors that pair harmoniously with the restaurant's robust selection of Argentinean red wines.
Although Caminito's wood-fired steaks have earned it the Valley Advocate's award for Best Steak House from 2010 through 2012, the menu proves that the restaurant does not live and die by expertly charred beef. Lobster-filled ravioli, pan-seared salmon, and seasoned chicken breasts showcase the kitchen team's culinary repertoire, in addition to vegetarian entrees that aren't just snapshots of steak printed on soy paper. Refreshing sips of ale from Peak Organic Brewing Company complement hearty bites, and spoonfuls of flan and mousse bring meals to their bittersweet conclusion. On weekends, the acoustic strumming of guitarists Alvaro Olvera Sanchez and Jeremy Milligan nourish famished ears with flamenco notes and classic Spanish songs.
The menu at Eclipse doesn't just rotate with the seasons—it changes on a daily basis. Inspired by the most recent bounty of asparagus or basil at the farmers' market, Eclipse's chefs craft contemporary entrees featuring meats such grass-fed beef from nearby Upland Meadow Farm, instead of ice-fed beef from Pluto. They lavish these creations with gourmet flavorings such as gorgonzola compound butter, black-currant glaze, and wasabi cream, and draw inspiration from international culinary traditions, turning out dishes such an eggplant baingan bharta. Diners spear their cornish game hen or housemade basil-lasagna noodles while lounging outdoors or surrounded by the dining room's exposed-brick and soft-yellow walls. On the weekends, live jazz music flits through the air, giving diners an excuse to munch in quiet camaraderie instead of arguing politics, religion, and the usefulness of sporks.
Chefs' spatulas have flipped pancakes and eggs in The Silver Spoon's kitchen since 1983. In 1996, Jeff and Sue Doyle took over the neighborhood staple, leading Mark Roessler of the Valley Advocate to laud its current incarnation for its specialty, the Crow's Nest: a bed of hash browns and poached eggs doused in hollandaise sauce. Such delights come out of the kitchen all morning and afternoon on the arms of servers carefully delivering lunch and breakfast goodies to each table. Under the glow of stained-glass lighting, silverware clatters against plates as patrons, ready to dig in, perch upon red-upholstered booths flanked by dark wood wainscoting that gives the room the feel of a homey log cabin. Kids' menus are also available for breakfast and lunch, with offerings of kid-size french toast and chicken fingers.:m]]
Though Michael Anderson has worked in the kitchen for more than three decades, he hasn't always worn the title of executive chef. Like many great chefs before him, Anderson began his career as a dishwasher, working his way up through practice and education before finally earning the prestigious role of head chef at Chandler's Tavern. With this culinary accomplishment under his belt, Anderson decided he was ready to fulfill his dream of opening his own restaurant—naming it for the chef he studied under as a dishwasher all those years ago.
Today, a panorama of white-linen tablecloths and chandeliers stretches across Tucker's dining hall, bar, and private banquet rooms. Anderson still works in the kitchen, overseeing staff as they prepare gourmet pastas, meats, and seafood from noon until nightfall. The restaurant opens its two elegant banquet halls for weddings, birthday parties, and upscale games of dodgeball.

Though you can't be Bella in real life (after all, there is only one Mrs. Edward Cullen), you can look like the actress (ahem, KStew) who plays her...by stealing her makeup look from the LA premiere of the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2. Celebrity makeup artist Jillian Dempsey gives us the low-down on the how-to:
Inspired by her sheer gold Zuhair Murad gown, Jillian went with warm gold tones on Kristen's eyes and a rich, berry shade on her lips. It was really about continuing the luminosity of her dress with shimmering makeup," she said. "I used iridescent shadow so the light would bounce off her eyes and a bitten, almost stained lip, which contrasted against Kristens porcelain skin.
Foundation: To even out Kristen's skin tone, Jillian used Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup SPF 15, $40, chanel.com. She then applied Chanel Correcteur Perfection Long Lasting Concealer, $40, chanel.com, under KStew's eyes and used Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Natural Lighting Powder, $42, kohgendocosmetics.com, to set the makeup.
Blush: To create a barely there flush on her cheeks, Jillian lightly applied Chanel Powder Blush in In Love, $43, chanel.com, a pinkish coral hue.
Eye Shadow: Since Kristens eyes naturally sparkle, Jillian chose warm gold and shimmery taupe tones from the Chanel Quadra Eyeshadow in Spices, $58, chanel.com, to enhance their effect. I applied layers of shimmery taupe and gold all over the lid and then shaded in the crease with a deeper color. If you already have some shades that are similar to the ones she used, go for those. Next, she lined Kristens upper and lower lash lines with a black eye pencil. We like Prestige Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil in Black, $5.25, drugstore.com. Jillian then smudged a blend of the shimmery taupe and gold shadow underneath the lower lashes to create a soft, hazy line along the bottom lash line.
Mascara: Creating lush lashes on KStew was the last step to those sultry bedroom eyes. Jillian first coated her fringe with a primer and then followed with a few coats of mascara over top.
Lips: On her pout, Jillian applied a layer of hydrating balm before she lined Kristen's lips with Laura Mercier Lip Liner in Crushed Berry, $20, nordstrom.com. She topped off the look with Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Colour in La Sensuelle, $32.50, chanel.com.
Two words: Freaking gorgeous.
What do you think of KStew's makeup?
Carly Cardellino: I'm the beauty and fashion editor here at Cosmopolitan.com. I'll try just about anything once (I have the crop cutmy hair used to be super-longand body wave to prove it) and then report back. I'm obsessed with hair products, like volumizers and salt sprays, as well as mascara, nail polish, a good foundation (right now I'm using Tom Ford Beauty Traceless Foundation SPF 15), and blush (it literally changes the way you look in seconds)hopefully you can see why I'm in this business.

Jason Tarr Procurement ManagerUniversity of Nottingham
As a charity it is always difficult to find people to work with, who understand budgetary restraints, and who are willing to truly help you find the best deal, ESPECIALLY when the kit in question is high end and expensive… However, Alan Palmer, and the team at Academia have been nothing but helpful in truly helping us find the best deal, and advising on what we need, versus what needs to be sold! Apart from great prices, the service that Alan and the team have shown has been second to none. They have been courteous, timely, informant, and nothing but helpful… As a person who has worked in customer service and is a firm believer in having a positive working relationship, I can say that Academia does just that. As long as this level of service continues, I will be sure to stick with Academia, and refer them to many more, as I have already. Thank you Academia, for being GREAT at what you do!
Adrian SemereneProject ManagerYoung Lives Get Creative
Academia have been extremely helpful in our Music departments procurement. It is great to have a point of call at a supplier who can provide up to date technical information and honest guidance regarding delivery times and stock level. Personally my experience of Academia's sale, costing and after-care / support has been excellent. Not only did we receive helpful advice regarding our choice of software installation but we also received much welcomed support after our requisition had been processed.
Nic BrittonMusic Technician & HND Lecturer Stafford College
Academia have proved to be a fountain of knowledge with regards to software licensing and my Account Manager has always dealt with quotes & orders in an efficient and professional manner. I would not hesitate in recommending Academia Ltd as a supplier to other organisations.
Enrico Garofalo Apple Certified Pro Support SpecialistBucks New University
I have known Academia right from the start. When I was at University, I met Mike at a Technology show at the NEC. He introduced me to Autodesk and I was given my first taste of Inventor (version 6 I think…). From there I started work at Thomas Cowley a few years later. From the support and software I received from Mike I naturally called him up and asked him to quote us on the new version of Inventor (version 8?). Mike arranged for a weeks worth of training at the Man and Machine offices, from there I spoke to several of the trainers, and along with Mike organised a train the teacher event at TCHS.
Run forward a few years and we have another project underway. Once again Academia have been involved from the start. A site visit (and we are half way up the country!) from Academia shared the vision for the new Creative and Media suite. Academia have provided us with extremely competitive quotes over the years, coupled with unrivalled support the company have always exceeded their remit. Currently they have worked with various members of staff at all levels in the school to simplify our licensing, lower our global spending on software, and provide clear and defined advice on asset management software.
Ontop of this Academia have invested time and money in supporting our students. From the initial installation of the earlier Autodesk software, students have benefited from large discounts, in school competitions, and yearly awards for creativity. For me this is a big bonus, students get to work on extra curricular projects with proper useful prizes (instead of the usual book tokens!).
When new staff have joined the department Academia have ensured that they are welcomed to the partnership by sending out welcome packs, demo software, and adding a personal touch by telephone.
Over the years Academia have worked tirelessly to ensure that the latest software has been available for our staff to try by sending out evaluation copies, demos, and in some cases delivering free staff copies.
James Hannam Design & Technology TeacherThomas Cowley High School
I first contacted Academia when our Microsoft Schools agreement was about to expire 2 years ago. We were looking for a company who could add value, and not just make contact once a year to renew our Microsoft Schools agreement. We switched to Academia as our main software supplier and have not looked back.
With Claire Quley at Academia we get great service, a pleasant, capable, and professional account manager. She goes the extra mile, taking time to get to know what projects the school is working on, offering suggestions, and trials on products which might be of benefit to us. I feel Academia is an extension of our local IT team; honest and reliable.
Chris J. AppletonICT DirectorKing Edwards School - Bath
We have a lot of different software at the college, with this comes software licensing complexity. Academia has provided me with the information on how to consolidate these licenses, making license management much easier. The quotations are always competitive and the helpful sales team's knowledge has promptly provided me with answers to any software queries.
Dan HillInfrastructure ManagerLeeds College of Art & Design
Last year we bought our software almost solely from Acedmia. This is because they are quick and efficient at obtaining quotes, they get support queries moved onto technical teams quickly, and their quotes are fiercely competitive. As a college we maintain a close working relationship with them and it is probable this will continue for years to come.
Tom WilliamsICT Systems EngineerPlymouth College of Art
"Academia has proven to be a fast, efficient and reliable provider for all of our Software needs. We have received fantastic support and unbeatable prices! Thank you for all of your help….I am sure we will need it again in the near future".
Mark Davies and Lori FordProduction DepartmentBelgrade Theatre, Coventry
I would just like to offer my thanks to you and the rest of the Academia team for your help and support over the past year in the purchase and deployment of our Inventor software. Your own personal professionalism and patience made the process of buying and planning the deployment across 21 secondary schools a much less arduous process that it might otherwise have been.
In addition, your technical support team have been excellent and have, at all times, demonstrated the highest standards of technical competence and professional courtesy during their visits to our schools.
I will have no hesitation in contacting you in connection with any future projects and would like to wish you every success in the future.
Once again, thanks to you, Claire and the rest of the team.

Glasgow Warriors scrum-half Chris Cusiter has been ruled out until around mid-December with a dislocated shoulder.
Cusiter sustained the injury during last Friday's 28-10 win over Ospreys, and has since been assessed by a shoulder specialist.
The positive news is that Cusiter's injury does not require surgery.
Glasgow Warriors head coach Gregor Townsend said the 30-year-old's injury was a setback for the club.
"Everyone at Glasgow Warriors is disappointed that a quality player like Chris Cusiter is likely to be out of action until around the middle of December," he told the club's official website.
"It's encouraging, though, that he doesn't need surgery, and we know he's in the best possible hands with our medical team.
"Chris is a tough competitor, and he'll be working hard to return to fitness and make a significant contribution to our campaign.
"We wish him well with his rehab, and look forward to welcoming Niko Matawalu to the club to supplement our options in the scrum-half position."
Cusiter's injury is also a blow for Scotland head coach Andy Robinson.
"It's disappointing for Chris because he has made such a good start to the season. I wish him a speedy recovery."

San Francisco Bay Area - Southern Peninsula Attractions
South of San Francisco, the peninsula is now primarily a bedroom community though some of California's scenic golden hills are still to be seen along Interstate 280 and along the coastal highway 1. A fair climate and Stanford University were notable forces precipitating the epicenter called Silicon Valley where many high-tech companies are found. While the Peninsula is generally considered to end a San Jose, attractions further south are practical to include along with the Peninsula proper.

HDNet Fights Video Vault (bonus edition): Gegard Mousasi vs. Jake O'Brien
by MMAjunkie.com Staff on Jul 16, 2010 at 3:05 pm ET
The Mousasi vs. O'Brien fight was one of two opening-round bouts in DREAM's light heavyweight grand prix, though O'Brien came in a stunning 21 pounds overweight.
Nevertheless, the fight went on as planned, though only briefly.
Each week HDNet and MMAjunkie.com release a new and exclusive fight from the ever-growing HDNet Fights video library. Stunning knockouts, slick submissions, shocking finishes and legendary brawls are the norm for this weekly feature. Mousasi vs. O'Brien is no exception.
Mousasi (28-3-1 at the time) was looking to rebound from an April loss to Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal under the Strikeforce banner. Mousasi relinquished Strikeforce's light heavyweight title with the loss, which was his first since August 2006.
Meanwhile, O'Brien (13-3 at the time) was seeking his third-straight win following his release from the UFC. There was some confusion as to whether O'Brien would compete in the days before the DREAM.15 event, but Mousasi signed off on the weight difference, and the bout carried on.
Check out the embedded clip to see if Mousasi would bounce back from defeat or if O'Brien could continue his winning ways.
And don't forget to check out a replay of the entire DREAM.15 tonight at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.

Thunder smash!
So there's really no reason one of the kegs can't be at the mile 24 marker.
There is one: the park will kick us out.
Yes, I do "run in this." So should you. The weather is never as bad as it seems from behind your office or car window.
There was a race course before Trent?

When is our next Yazoo tour day? Liz and I need to come!
Let's see. Even though it's Yazoo and not Leinies, anything that involves drinking pretty much works for my schedule. And, I'm a follower and conformist. So, I'll wait for everybody else to figure it out and then I'll just show up.
How do you keep your feet on the ground, when you know you were born to fly?

Ocimum sanctum |
Ocimum tenuiflorum, also known as Holy Basil, tulsi, or tulasī, is an aromatic plant in the family Lamiaceae which is native throughout the Eastern World tropics and widespread as a cultivated plant.[1] It is an erect, much branched subshrub, 30–60 cm tall with hairy stems and simple, opposite, green leaves that are strongly scented. Leaves have petioles, and are ovate, up to 5 cm long, usually slightly toothed. The flowers are purplish in elongate racemes in close whorls.[2] The two main morphotypes cultivated in India and Nepal are green-leaved (Sri or Lakshmi tulsi) and purple-leaved (Krishna tulsi).[3]
Tulsi is cultivated for religious and medicinal purposes, and for its essential oil. It is widely known across South Asia as a medicinal plant and an herbal tea, commonly used in Ayurveda, and has an important role within the Vaishnavite tradition of Hinduism, in which devotees perform worship involving holy basil plants or leaves.
The variety of Ocimum tenuiflorum used in Thai cuisine is referred to as Thai holy basil (Thai language: กะเพรา kaphrao);[1] it is not to be confused with Thai basil, which is a variety of Ocimum basilicum.
Contents |
In Hinduism[edit]
Tulsi or tulasi is a sacred plant for Hindus and is worshipped by Hindus as the avatar of goddess Lakshmi.[4] Water mixed with the petals is given to the dying to raise their departing souls to heaven.[5] Tulsi, which is Sanskrit for "the incomparable one", is most often regarded as a consort of Krishna in the form of Lakshmi.[6][7] According to the Brahma Vaivarta Purana, tulsi is an expression of Sita.[8][full citation needed] There are two types of tulsi worshipped in Hinduism: "Rama tulsi" has light green leaves and is larger in size; "Shyama tulsi" has dark green leaves and is important for the worship of Hanuman.[9] Many Hindus have tulsi plants growing in front of or near their home, often in special pots. Traditionally, tulsi is planted in the center of the central courtyard of Hindu houses. It is also frequently grown next to Hanuman temples, especially in Varanasi.[10][full citation needed]
According to Vaishnavas, it is believed in Puranas that during Samudra Manthana when the gods win the ocean-churning against asuras, Dhanvantari comes up from the ocean with Amrita in hand for the gods. Dhanvantari (the divine medico) sheds happy tears and when the first drop falls in Amrita it forms Tulasi. In the ceremony of Tulsi Vivah, tulsi is ceremonially married to Krishna annually on the eleventh day of the waxing moon or twelfth of the month of Kartika in the lunar calendar. This day also marks the end of the four-month Cāturmāsya period, which is considered inauspicious for weddings and other rituals, so the day inaugurates the annual marriage season in India. The ritual lighting of lamps each evening during Kartika includes the worship of the tulsi plant, which is held to be auspicious for the home. Vaishnavas especially follow the daily worship of tulsi during Kartika.[11]
Vaishnavs traditionally use japa malas made from tulsi stems or roots, which are an important symbol of initiation. Tulsi malas are considered to be auspicious for the wearer, and believed to put them under the protection of Hanuman. They have such a strong association with Vaishnavas, that followers of Hanuman are known as "those who bear the tulasi round the neck".[7]
Thai cuisine[edit]
The leaves of holy basil, known as kaphrao in the Thai language (Thai: กะเพรา), are commonly used in Thai cuisine.[12] Kaphrao should not be confused with horapha (Thai: โหระพา), which is normally known as Thai basil,[12] or with Thai lemon basil (maenglak; Thai: แมงลัก).
The best-known dish made with this herb is phad kaphrao (Thai: ผัดกะเพรา) — beef, pork or chicken, stir-fried with Thai holy basil.
Insect repellent[edit]
For centuries, the dried leaves have been mixed with stored grains to repel insects.[13]
Tulsi has been used for thousands of years in Ayurveda for its diverse healing properties. It is mentioned in the Charaka Samhita,[14] an ancient Ayurvedic text. Tulsi is considered to be an adaptogen,[15] balancing different processes in the body, and helpful for adapting to stress.[16] Marked by its strong aroma and astringent taste, it is regarded in Ayurveda as a kind of "elixir of life" and believed to promote longevity.[17]
Tulsi extracts are used in ayurvedic remedies for a variety of ailments. Traditionally, tulsi is taken in many forms: as herbal tea, dried powder, fresh leaf or mixed with ghee. Essential oil extracted from Karpoora tulsi is mostly used for medicinal purposes and in herbal cosmetics, and is widely used in skin preparations.[citation needed]
Pharmacological study[edit]
This article needs more medical references for verification or relies too heavily on primary sources. (October 2012) |
Some of the main chemical constituents of tulsi are: oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, rosmarinic acid, eugenol, carvacrol, linalool, β-caryophyllene (about 8%),[15] β-elemene (c.11.0%), and germacrene D (about 2%).[18]
A variety of in vitro studies and animal studies have indicated some potential pharmacological properties of Ocimum tenuiflorum or its extracts. Recent studies suggest tulasi may be a COX-2 inhibitor, like many modern painkillers, due to its high concentration of eugenol.[19] One small study showed it to reduce blood glucose levels in type 2 diabetics when combined with hypoglycemic drugs.[20] The same study showed significant reduction in total cholesterol levels with tulsi. Another study showed its beneficial effect on blood glucose levels is due to its antioxidant properties.[21] Tulasi also shows some promise for protection from radiation poisoning[22] and cataracts.[23] It has anti-oxidant properties and can repair cells damaged by exposure to radiation.[24][medical citation needed] The fixed oil has demonstrated antihyperlipidemic and cardioprotective effects in rats fed a high fat diet.[25] A double-blind trial conducted in 2011 suggested that an alcoholic extract of tulsi modulates immunity, thus promoting immune system function.[26]
β-Elemene has been studied for its potential anticancer properties,[27] but human clinical trials have yet to confirm its effectiveness.[28]
Isolated O. sanctum extracts have some antibacterial activity against E. coli, S. aureus and P. aeruginosa.[29]

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, contact firstname.lastname@example.com for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Angel delight is about 60 pence now!
and yeah, how often do you get a dessert at a restaurant and think 'I paid 8 quid for THIS?'
We went out to dinner Saturday night at one of those frou-frou restaurants where every dish contains "gruyere" or "arugula" or uses "clean forks."
Anyway, when they showed us the dessert menu, my wife and I picked out an overly-described chocolate dish that sounded as though it was made in a 19-step, 2-day process. You know the type of restaurant description I mean: "Hand-massaged cocoa beans shaved onto a jellied bed of chocolate pudding, surrounded by a chef-kissed bed of roses...(etc., etc.)"
But when they brought it out – and this is the part the Brits will like — it was basically just "Angel Delight".
Nuthin' fancy about it. Just ninety-eight pence, Sainsbury's-bought "Angel Delight". Which, in a way, was awesome... since I haven't had "Angel Delight" since I lived in England. But, considering that it was described as though it were the magnum opus of desserts...it made us laugh.
HA! That's awesome.
I don't blame them for using the stuff though. I could live on Angel Delight. Especially the butterscotch flavour. Mmmmmm...
wow, that takes me back :P they used to serve it at my primary school with hundred's and thousands on top, before Jamie Oliver got involved, grrr

What is Bystolic?
Nebivolol is in a group of drugs called beta-blockers. Beta-blockers affect the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins).
Nebivolol is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Lowering blood pressure may lower your risk of a stroke or heart attack.
Nebivolol may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
In This Section:
What is the most important information I should know about Bystolic?
Do not skip doses or stop taking nebivolol without first talking to your doctor. Stopping suddenly may make your condition worse or cause other serious heart problems such as severe chest pain or heart attack. You may need to use less and less before you stop the medication completely.
If you need surgery, tell the surgeon ahead of time that you are using nebivolol.
Nebivolol may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be alert.
Nebivolol is only part of a complete program of treatment that also includes diet, exercise, and weight control. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely.
Keep using this medicine as directed, even if you feel well. High blood pressure often has no symptoms. You may need to use blood pressure medication for the rest of your life.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Bystolic?
You should not take nebivolol if you are allergic to it, or if you have:
- severe liver disease; or
- a heart problem such as heart block, sick sinus syndrome, slow heart rate, or heart failure
To make sure you can safely take nebivolol, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
- asthma, bronchitis, emphysema
- liver or kidney disease
- diabetes
- a thyroid disorder
- a history of allergies
- problems with circulation (such as Raynaud's syndrome)
- pheochromocytoma (tumor of the adrenal gland); or
- if you have recently had a heart attack

Protesters' Paltry RNC Presence Surprises Some
Few demonstrations have been held since the Republican National Convention began on Monday. It ends today.
Blame it on Monday's gloomy weather. Or the sizzle of the August heat after the sky cleared on Tuesday.
Whatever the reason, protesters in downtown Tampa haven't shown up in droves as city officials expected during the Republican National Convention.
Those who ventured away from Romneyville - a makeshift headquarters for protesters - toward the Tampa Convention Center have gathered in pockets at intersections, gripping Ron Paul signs or chanting in groups. Last night, protesters taunted officers by dangling doughnuts on sticks.
Some, like Doug Marris, chose the lone wolf route.
On Thursday morning, Marris, a 55-year-old U.S. Air Force veteran, held a white sign bearing a plethora of hand-written phrases and acronyms like "domestic spying" and "corporate bribes." The upper right corner of the sign read, "The Real Terrorists Work in D.C."
Nearby, more than a dozen members of various law enforcement agencies stood guard at the intersection of Ashley and Whiting streets.
Even Marris, an Ocala resident who has been protesting since Tuesday, was surprised that more people hadn't shown up to voice their opinions, too.
"I thought there'd be more Americans here," said Marris, who plans in November to write in Ron Paul as a candidate. "They're scared. Fifty million dollars (spent) on security, and they're afraid to get arrested ... I'm not afraid of anybody."
Meanwhile, what has historically been a contentious relationship between the authorities and protesters turned civil when Tampa police officers dropped off sandwiches, fruit and water to Romneyville protesters.
The gesture even garnered a positive response from protesters on their website.
"A special thanks to the TPD for dropping off much needed supplies today," read a message on the site.
At a media briefing on Thursday morning, Tampa Police Chief Jane Castor said her department is using a few simple strategies with protesters.
"We approach these groups and ask what their goal is," said Castor. "We'll take over an intersection so they can be photographed by the media."
Larry McKinnon, a spokesman for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, said officials there were trained to "ignore any verbal taunts" and baiting that protesters sometimes use when confronting members of law enforcement.
With 1,200 members of the Hillsborough sheriff's office present downtown - the bulk of the RNC's security detail - McKinnon said it's too early to tell whether protesters will buck the trend on the last day of the convention.
"They were never able to get their drive started," said McKinnon of the protesters, "but we still have another few hours yet."
Why do you think the protester presence has been so low? Let us know in the comments section.

Perhaps the pictures of the militarized police force the purchase of tanks and drones intimidated the protestors as those who accepted the 50 million for providing security expected. Then again, when free speech zones are a half mile from the action who really sees or hears protests? You watch enough Republicans and hear them speak and you see the futility of confronting them. Choose your battles--the protests are far from over we just choose not to waste energy confronting ornery stupidity. Many of us realize that the government is run by a global corporate cartel and we are no longer participating in the "distractions." Elections are simply theater for the hypnotized. Those of us who have awakened are aim at another target. By and large, the hypnotized don't protest. They watch life from a television.

Auh. ... .... They didn't get to bust any heads and that's always just so much fun for the knuckle draggers.
Bob Doyle SR
1:32 pm on Friday, August 31, 2012
You are obviously not familier with the LEOs of the entire "TAMPABAY" communities. Tampa PD is rarely knuckle draggers, unless it is reaching down to your gutter to pick you up.
1:05 pm on Friday, August 31, 2012
With such a wide gamut of information today, who needs or pays any attention to protestors?
These people need to direct their resources to other means, instead of wasting money to travel to an event, that no one pays any attention to them.
God bless our law enforcement personnel.
I certainly would hate to call on a protestor, if I ever felt my life, was in any kind of endangerment!

Creating the Future of Family Medicine
OHSU's 4-year Family Medicine Residency Program is designed for those looking for a comprehensive, integrated, diverse program that will provide them superior education and preparation for the challenges of Family Medicine practice – both today and tomorrow. Our 4-year Family Medicine Residency curriculum creates flexibility for residents to explore areas of interest and to develop skills to serve them into the 21st Century. In our program, you'll experience:
- Training in population health.
- Interprofessional team-based care.
- Transitions of care skills.
- Life-long learning.
- Information management.
- Individualized learning plans.
- Commitment to public policy.
- Career selective blocks.
Here's what our first 4-year residency class has to say:
I was interested in the 4-year program because my interests within family medicine are so broad. I knew I would need more than three years to be able to explore my areas of interest in-depth. The curriculum will give me the opportunity to focus elective and rotation time on the aspects of family medicine that interest me the most and to develop procedural skills to a level of competency that I would not have time to do in a regular three-year curriculum. I am also excited that this expanded program includes an emphasis in relevant areas such as leadership and the Patient-centered Primary Care Home, since these will be very pertinent to my career once I leave residency." - Emily Waterman, MD, MPH
"Health care is changing so quickly, and family medicine is really the only specialty positioned to create the primary-care foundation we need for a well-functioning, outcomes and patient-based system. I think the transition to a 4-year program recognizes three essential truths: (1) family medicine is increasingly broad in scope, and the extra year allows for expansion of skills and knowledge from a traditional curriculum; (2) many of these skills go beyond clinical practice, and are essential to create advocates and leaders in the specialty to guide ongoing change; and (3) supplementing a broad primary-care training with focused experiences will expand what we're able to offer patients as a specialty. I believe the 4-year program will produce even stronger graduates, and in the long term, help to appropriately raise the status of primary care within medicine. - Jessica Johnson, MD, MPH
"Family medicine physicians of the future will be expected to take a leadership role in not only the clinical management of our patients, but also the public policy direction of our health system. At a time when healthy policy and primary care has never been more exciting, an extra year of training will give us the broad perspective and skills to be leaders in family medicine going forward. To be skilled clinicians in three different specialties takes time and work. An extra year will help solidify our skills and give us more time to learn to teach them to others. Family medicine is a specialty of niches. Having an extra year to work on an intense project, allows us to explore more of those niches while still in a training environment." - Jason Kroening-Roché, MD, MPH
"Family medicine has a very broad scope of practice, and an extra year of training will hopefully make me more comfortable in my skill set. I was excited about the ability to tailor my training to my interests and get elective time for concentrated experiences. The leadership training offered by the longitudinal curriculum was exciting." - Kira Paisley, MD
