We asked members of the BuzzFeed Community for their favourite romantic meal from a movie. And then we figured out how to re-create them.
1. Tramp's Meatballs from Lady and the Tramp
2. The Grilled Cheese from Chef
Fancy up your date night with this fontina grilled cheese. Or take it a step further and make a pizza grilled cheese.
"The grilled cheese scene in Chef, I have never wanted to make out with food as much as I wanted to make out with the grilled cheese that Jon Favreau's character makes. So I mean, that makes it romantic, right? If you don't know the scene, find it on YouTube right now". – Suggested by Danielle Magnuson
3. Tita's Rose Petal Quail from Like Water For Chocolate
Fresh and fragrant (and potent, as the film shows), this luxurious dish is a dream date. Get the recipe here.
"The scene in Like Water for Chocolate when Tita is making quail in rose petal sauce and afterwards when the meal is being enjoyed. It is very romantic and sensual, and beautifully filmed. The relationship between food, romance, and sex is wonderfully explored in this movie, especially in this particular part." – Suggested by Jacki Demchak
4. Perfect Hot Chocolate from Chocolat
This easy peasy hot chocolate gets an extra boost from the floating meringue, as well as oodles of chocolate shavings. Get the recipe here.
"The scene in Chocolat when Vianne tries to guess Roux's favourite kind of chocolate and keeps getting it wrong until the end when he comes back to live with her and she makes him hot cocoa." – Suggested by Colleen Deitrich
6. Perfect Pancakes from No Reservations
Perfectly fluffy pancakes, for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Get the recipe here.
"The ending scene in No Reservations, where Kate and Nick make pancakes for their Kate-Nick-and-Zoe's Bistro. Touching, sweet, and the most romantic food/cooking-based movie out there" – Suggested by Paige R. Hackett
7. Diner Burgers from Good Will Hunting
Keep it simple with a delicious cheeseburger, grilled how you like 'em. Pickle optional. Get the recipe here.
"Good Will Hunting: Will and Skylar kissing while eating burgers at the diner. "I think I got some of your pickle!"– Suggested by Justine Fitting
8. Howl's Breakfast from Howl's Moving Castle
Yeah fried eggs and bacon are good, but to make things truly magical go to the next level. An egg fried INSIDE a grilled cheese. That's breakfast magic that Howl would be proud of. Get the recipe here.
"MIYAZAKI ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. *INSERT GIF OF HOWL FRYING BACON AND EGGS*" – Suggested by Eva Tiner
9. Hazel and Gus' Fancy Dinner from The Fault In Our Stars
Treat your loved one to a fancy home-cooked meal. OK? Get the easy three course recipe here.
"The dinner in Amsterdam in The Fault In Our Stars – Suggested by bhslizcarpenter
10. Vegetable Curry from The Hundred Foot Journey
Tuck into a delicious mushroom and cauliflower masala, and see February's grey days fly away. Get the recipe here.
"Definitely Helen Mirren feeding Om Puri the tasty treats she's passing about during the Bastille Day celebration. This whole movie was really a collection of romantic food scene after romantic food scene. But let's face it, if it were me? I might be willing to sell my first born child to dabble in a curry or three with Manish Dayal." – Suggested by mikahs
11. Zeke's Cookies from High School Musical
Bake your sweetheart as many cookies as you can. Get tips here before you start, then select the recipe.
"HSM when Sharpay eats Zeke's cookies" – Suggested by kxxksrxsie
12. Lonely Chicago Pie from Waitress
Turn that lonely pie into a happy one, by adding endless M&Ms. Get the recipe here.
"Waitress ! When Jenna shows Dr. Pomatter how to make Lonely Chicago pie and sings the song her mom sang her. "Baby don't you cry, gonna make a pie, and hold you forever in the middle of my heart" – Suggested by stephanies4815c50b4.
13. Annie's Carrot Cake from Bridesmaids
Have your sorry cake, and eat it too. Get the recipe here.
"In Bridesmaids when Annie makes the carrot cake for Rhodes, and she thinks he doesn't eat it at first and it breaks her heart… But when he tells her that he really did eat it, it's symbolic of their growing and healing relationship!"– Suggested by dianamiller
14. Mendl's Pastries from The Grand Budapest Hotel
Pile your choux buns high to make the elusive Courtesan au Chocolat, or keep it easy with some Mendl's cookies. Get the recipe here.
"Zero and Agatha's baking from The Grand Budapest Hotel!"– Suggested by adriklarinet
15. Fried Green Tomatoes from Fried Green Tomatoes
Yeah, fried green tomatoes are divine, but take them to the next level with bacon and cheese to really show off. Get the recipe here.
"I love the scene in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes where Ruth and Idgie make said tomatoes. The director has said that he intended that scene to be a sex scene of sorts, and it's really cute and shows off the playfulness of their relationship." – Suggested by libertym446d6b68f.
16. Morning After Breakfast from Mr and Mrs Smith
Sure, Brad and Angie forage for apples in the wreckage of their house, but I reckon strawberry and nutella French toast is probably a more suitable morning-after option. Get the recipe here.
"The morning after breakfast enjoyed by Mr and Mrs Smith. Drinking out of cracked glasses and eating whatever survived the fridge being shoot-up. Being all tender after the gun foreplay and battle sex." – Suggested by morag08
17. Ron's Chicken Drumsticks from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Take a your feast a step up from chicken and go for turkey. Deep fry your turkey for a crispy coating, with a perfectly cooked interior. Ron would approve. Get the recipe here.
"U know Ron was in a committed relationship with food…" – Suggested by amazingaimz
Ron's fond of chicken legs. A previous version of this post said he was eating turkey legs.

I can't believe people are complaining about the FINA swimming championships. What an opportunity for Windsor to hold such an event.
Hockey is not the only sport out there, and give those athletes credit for their accomplishments. Those swimmers are dedicated and spend many hours training.
I was able to attend a few events and was happy for the opportunity to watch this world class event.

Not all steps that improve the energy efficiency of your data center will boost performance in key metrics for measuring "green" data centers. An example: removing fans from servers, which actually has an adverse effect on Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), the leading metric for data center efficiency.
This dilemma was discussed in a new video from Microsoft featuring Dr. Dileep Bhandarkar, which designs and builds Microsoft's data centers. Bharkander discusses how Microsoft realized it was duplicating effort by using fans in both servers and air handlers in its data center environment. So it designed the latest version of its IT-PAC data center container module as a giant air handler, with airflow management that eliminated the need for fans in the servers.
Here's the full video, which runs about 3 minutes.

Take a Hot Air Balloon Safari – See the Wildlife from above – Queen Elizabeth Park
Glide above the Scenery & Wildlife on a Hot Air Balloon Safari – Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda
Take a one of a kind Hot Air Balloon Safari Tour over Queen Elizabeth National Park at sunrise seeing the wildlife and scenery below such as the explosion craters, the Rwenzori Mountains of the Moon in the distance, Kazinga Channel with its wildlife, Lake Edward and Lake George. It is 1 1/2 hours in the air over Queen Elizabeth Park seeing the park like you would never on a game drive. The Hot Air Balloon Ride is followed by a Champagne Bush Breakfast prepared by the staff from Mweya Safari Lodge.
You will enjoy two great and memorable activities on this Balloon Safari – seeing the wildlife from above and a Bush Breakfast making this a highlight of your time in the Pearl of Africa – Uganda.
A Sunrise Balloon Safari over a Tapestry of Natural Wonders and one of Uganda's favorite parks – Queen Elizabeth Park. You will be able to see the stunning beauty of the snow-capped Rwenzori Mountains of the Moon, Explosion Crater Lakes, the Western Rift, Lake Edward and Lake George connected by the Kazinga Channel, Kyambura Gorge – the Democratic Republic to the West and the abundant wildlife seen below you.
Soar up to heights of 3000 feet and see things that others would never see on foot or with a vehicle – a sunrise hot-air balloon Safari in Queen Elizabeth Park,
A hot-air balloon safari means an early rise and getting to the meeting point at 5:30 am where you will be greeted by the crew with coffee, tea and other refreshments as you see the balloon assembled and meet your certified pilot (at least 1000 hours – flying time). You will receive a safety orientation before lift-off for your hot air balloon safari.
Sunrises in Queen Elizabeth Park are at just after 6 am and you will see it in all of its glory as you rise above the Queen Elizabeth Park Savannah with Elephant Herds below you, Lions returning from their nocturnal hunt, Hippos coming back to the lake or Kazinga Channel after grazing all night. Each Hot Air Balloon is a journey of Discovery that you will delight in.
Presently the Hot Air Balloon can accommodate up to 16 passengers with an extra one to be added for up to 24 passengers – the cost per passenger is 380 usd and your flying safari is about 1 hour plus in length. At the end of the Hot Air Balloon Safari, you will be met by the ground crew and celebrate your time over Queen Elizabeth Park with Breakfast and a flying certificate.
The Champagne Bush Breakfast is prepared by the upmarket Mweya Safari Lodge.
This unique experience over the African Savanna, the Crater Lakes – the Wildlife must be booked with us at the time when you are planning your Safari with us.
If a Hot Air Balloon Safari is something that you would like to do, let us know and we will make it a part of your safari in Queen Elizabeth Park in Uganda.
Enjoy seeing Queen Elizabeth Park from above in a Hot Air Balloon…an incomparable adventure….

Cowboy Boots
What brand, and why?
What style, and what is it's function?
What is a good material?
How do I keep a knife in there?
Your thoughts?
1. Lucchese
2. Lucchese.
3. And, finally....Lucchese.
Expensive, but worth every penny. You may never need to buy another boot. All types of hides, from cow to kangaroo, ostrich to alligator, and rhino to elephant. Just look at their website.
I have three pair, $300 already-distressed calf, kangaroo, and $800 full-quill ostrich....and I could sleep in all of them.
I've owned just about all different brands...............Lucchese! Made right here in Texas!
....and the knife just slips in the side along your leg.
Do I need special care for different hides?
Jesus Christ....:eek:
What kind of job paid enough for a cowboy to get boots that pricey?!??
Damn. I am in the wrong line of work apparently... LOL
Nice boots Lon, but I don't think Benning can afford to get a pair of those and then go step in bull shi*ite with them while herding. :p
Still, Lon is on a ranch, and knows his stuff....
Them boots is for the bunny ranch.
Damn good looking boots though.
Less than $300.
DO you want slip on boots or lace up boots?
Tony Lama make a great pair of boots. My dad wore nothing but Tony's for a long time.
I have a pair of Justin Lace up ropers that are rather tough. I haven't wore them in years because I don't dress hick anymore.
Western Wear, Cowboy Boots, Western Shirts Apparel and Clothing | Cavender's Boot City Western Store
Tony Lama - Tony Lama Boots - The World's Most Recognized Western Boot Brand Since 1911.
Ariat International
Here if you want a boot that will last you forever and a year White's are the way to go. There is nothing tougher than Whites. My dad had their line boots and I don't think he ever had to buy a second pair of them in 35 years. Whites are custom fitted to your foot measurements. These boots fit like a glove and last forever I am telling you.
Justin Official Boot of the PRCA
Those are some gorgeous boots right there. :D
JD probably couldn't pull it off though

[[File:Akainu.PNG|thumb|FLEET ADMIRAL AKAINU]Do to his show of strength in the war i think that he will be the next Fleet Admiral of the Marines.He was the reason why most of the WB pirates couldnt reach the plaza and he killed Ace his self and is the only marine so far who truely believes in absolute justice.And the WG meant think of his ruthlessness towards pirates is the only way to restore order in the world.
- his logia fruit is oone of the most destructive of the series.
- he has no known weaknesses
- and doesnt care if inoccent ppl die in the name of justice
So in the future dont be suprised if Akainu took the place of Songoku who is starting to question the WG's true belief in justice or what the public thinks of them.

Go here and read the entire article.
This is the kind of behavior Americans around the country have been terrified would begin, that their own police would turn on everyday citizens, an armed gang. Stifling dissent of the "occupy" movement, taking payoffs from "banksters" is one thing but, not the photo above, that is a 12 ga. shotgun inches from the face of a small child. That is a felony, not just a violation of "police procedure."
This is the crap that happens in communist countries.
It shouldn't be happening here but it is, all across the country.
The locals here don't call it Saudi Aurora for nothing.
After you read the above link, go read Curtis's post about how people are embracing this Police State action.
Maybe the Aurora PD and the boot-licking populace should be reminded of this little annoying fact:
Next time you may need to visit Aurora, Colorado, perhaps you had best ask your friends to meet you on "American territory" where there are laws.

Lease to own car lots in Iowa approve consumers directly, there is no need for a credit check or a good credit score to approve the transaction, just a job or consistent income.Bad credit car leasing Sioux City, IAHow much money down is needed? A good rule of thumb for auto leasing is to have enough cash pay the 1st payment. If you're buying a car plan on having enough cash to pay the Iowa taxes and fees.

San Jose, California – (The Hosting News) – July 24, 2006 – Web host and national provider of integrated voice and data communications firm, Covad Communications Group, Inc., is continuing on the next phase of the development of the build-out of a new telecommunications network.
The project, scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year, is anticipated to be the nation's largest ADSL 2+ network, enabling high-speed data and next-generation voice services to millions of businesses and residences.
The phase of the build-out covers Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Philadelphia, San Diego and Washington, DC, joining San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle and Dallas, where Covad's next generation network is already in service. By the end of 2006, Covad will offer line powered voice access, and have the capability to offer higher-speed broadband access, such as ADSL 2+ and G.SHDSL, and new business-class services such as metro Ethernet and bonded T1.
Claude Tolbert, Senior Vice President of Covad explained, "Covad's next-generation network build-out is progressing on time and on budget and will allow Covad to leap ahead of our competition in providing for the total telecommunications needs of our customers with unmatched business-class broadband services."
Covad has chosen Samsung as its network equipment provider, and is now the vendor's largest North American customer of network equipment. Dale Sohn, President of Samsung Telecommunications America offered, "We're very excited to work with an innovative partner such as Covad," said "Covad has raised the bar in delivering advanced broadband services."
Covad provides a business-class alternative to traditional telecom providers that is focused on the needs of small and medium businesses. As Covad deploys a new broadband wireless access service, the businesses, along with Covad's enterprise-class business customers, will have the option to upgrade to a suite of high-speed, Ethernet-based solutions that is designed to combine the power, reach, performance, and scalability of a licensed spectrum with the reliability and security of Covad's extensive network.
A nationwide provider of integrated voice and data communications, Covad offers DSL, Voice Over IP, T1, web hosting, managed security, IP and dial-up, wireless broadband, and bundled voice and data services directly through Covad's network and through Internet Service Providers, value-added resellers, telecommunications carriers and affinity groups to small and medium-sized businesses and home users. According to the company, as the first company to commercially deploy DSL in the United States, Covad has spent hundreds of millions of dollars building a network that passes more than 57 million homes and businesses in 44 states – the largest nationwide footprint of any DSL company. Covad broadband services are currently available across the nation in 235 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) which represent over 50 percent of all US homes and businesses. Corporate headquarters is located at 110 Rio Robles, San Jose, California 95134. Telephone: 1-888-GO-COVAD.

Takebacker, I'm not sure how to break it to you but unfortunately Phoenix and EP don't trigger Damage Reflect.
Takebacker, I'm not sure how to break it to you but unfortunately Phoenix and EP don't trigger Damage Reflect.
Oh ok great. Disregard the fact that i suck cock.
How does the 20% damage reduction work? It just does it no matter where it's positioned/whether the mob is hitting it, as long as it's been summoned to the field?
So, save for the bowmaster build post-Jump being added, everything else is outdated to hell, as far as I can tell. Is this going to be worked on anytime soon?
As far as a new GB strat, the attacking EP would be a rather big hassle if you were to place it in the old spot, but then again we gotta keep phoenix out as it is to get the damage and hp buff. So, grandpa runs/solos are going to be more of a hassle, I don't have a strat, just brute force I guess. It's not like the bodyguards attacks are that strong anymore.
Ugh I prolly messed up my reset...
I have
15 / 15 - Puppet
20 / 20 - Blizzard
10 / 10 - Evasion Boost
20 / 20 - Arrow Eruption
15 / 20 - Frostprey
20 / 20 - Strafe
16 / 20 - Dragon Breath
5 / 15 - Mortal Blow
0/20 concentration
Got 27 left at lv 119 (30 when i get to lv 120 next level)
So max Concentration, max Frostprey and put last points into Mortal Blow? I hate not having enough SP to max everything.
Yeah don't max sh`itty Mortal Blow.
I've been a long long time fan of Mortal Blow...but if it is overshadowed by other skills I suppose I shall reluctantly put points in other more useful things.
I think for the OHKO to actually speed up training, you have to like 6HKO+ on non-bosses, and MB would bring that down to 5HKO 15% of the time. It's definitely more useful to a Bow Master where Hurricane + AFA does a lot of "hits" to kill, compared to Pierce... The healing is pretty garbage imo.

If you read my blog, you know how much I love to draw. One of my favourite things to draw and illustrate are customised wedding invitations. Above we decided to go for a Chinese theme with red lanterns and a color scheme of green and red with the party and dinner invitations secretly hidden inside a center opened pocket. If you're interested in this very different and personal wedding invitation, you can buy my wedding invitation package (which contains your own personal "logo", theme based illustrations and wedding couple caricatures, hand written text all over, itinerary and framed and signed originals!)

Starting an Art journal
I've been writing diaries since I could write (I have about 35 of them hidden away! My entire life and everyone in it written down 🙂 It's a very precious thing to save, but since leaving Sweden and after meeting my Belgian husband, I've been feeling slightly confused about what language to write in, so I sort of stopped… I was always very sad about that until I met a very special girl…
It's been about a year since my friend Anna Denise taught me how to do Art journaling – THANK YOU, Anna! On her web site, she has an Art Journal 101, a tutorial, where she takes you step by step to get started for yourself.
Art journaling is a great way to express yourself artistically and I do it in my in-between projects periods, especially if I find it hard to start a new collection. Doodling with a pen, drawing special moments from my life, make colorful lists or just throwing out anger on a piece of paper, is a very efficient way to become creative if you're in a "low face". It is also the perfect way to learn how to draw. Or when you want to do something creative together with your kids: sitting together and drawing together is very relaxing 🙂
I was pretty bad in the beginning (I'm used to drawing clothes and stiff looking mannequins!), but little by little I figured out which colors that worked with my style, what layouts to use, and especially what we looked like – how to draw the people in my life! You can see my progress from the first ugly ones I did, to the more recent ones. I hope this little post inspired you to get started yourself? It's really fun!

Experts reveal all about Vaginoplasty surgery
18 February 2016
Singer Sinitta made the headlines this week for live streaming her friend's Vaginoplasty procedure – but what exactly is it? Experts reveal what you need to know about this latest Cosmetic Surgery trend.
- What is a Vaginoplasty?
Vaginoplasty (also known as Cosmetic Gynaecology) is a procedure undertaken by women who want to improve the appearance of their vagina. This could be following childbirth or due to changes as they have aged.
- What to expect from the procedure
There are different types of Cosmetic Gynaecology – all with varying aims. For example, the Cosmetic Surgeon may trim excess skin from the labia minora to reduce the length or size. Some patients may have Filler injected into the vagina to make it narrower – it all depends on what the patient is hoping to achieve.
- Is it a common procedure?
The procedure is becoming increasingly popular with women of a certain age. On the day of surgery, patients will be given a local anaesthetic and allowed to leave the clinic an hour after the procedure. You'll usually be advised to wear a pad as well as refrain from intercourse for up to a week afterwards to allow the body to heal.
Would you consider undergoing Cosmetic Gynaecology? Share your views on Twitter.

The postponement of landmark status for a relic of Waukegan's industrial past reminded me that this week marks 30 years since the release of "The Untouchables," Brian De Palma's cinematic and occasionally operatic ode to Eliot Ness and/or Al Capone.
Hang with me while we connect those dots.
"The Untouchables" is remembered for many entries in the library of movie trivia, including the many memorable quotes in David Mamet's script. Perhaps the most memorable was when Sean Connery tells Kevin Costner "how to get Capone":
"They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's...

Target: Florida State Attorney Jeffrey L. Ashton
Goal: Pursue maximum sentence for school resource officer who allegedly physically assaulted middle school student.
A police resource officer was reportedly shown in video footage slamming an 84-pound middle school student to the ground and twisting his arm for over 40 seconds. The child can be seen in the video writhing in pain. The officer allegedly assaulted the boy when he overheard him and his mother in a disagreement. He stepped in by using physical force, even though he had no right to and the situation was none of his business.
The officer was reportedly "relieved" from duty and an investigation was conducted, which showed he used excessive force and improper conduct. Investigators also said that the child did nothing to provoke this deplorable behavior from the resource officer.
His trial is coming up in December. Please urge the district attorney to do everything possible to aim for the maximum penalty for this abusive, out-of-control officer.
Dear Florida State Attorney Jeffrey L. Ashton,
A video reportedly shows a middle school resource officer grab a student, slam him to the ground, then twist his arm in a "torque" hold for over 40 seconds. Investigators say the innocent boy did nothing to provoke the officer and that the officer used excessive force.
This behavior must not be tolerated. Please do everything in your power to ensure he receives the most severe penalty, to help protect innocent students from abusive officers like him.

The Touch Bar TouchID The touchpad The keyboard The screen The hardware The scoop Share this Slideshow Direct link: Run your fingers over this! Apple rolled out the newest generation of the MacBook Pro today at a showcase event at the company's Cupertino campus. Along with – get this – thinner and sleeker construction, Apple's latest MacBook Pros have had several important features redesigned, and one big new feature added. Have a look. Apple The Touch Bar Replacing the function keys at the top of the keyboard is the Touch Bar, a programmable touch pad, like a stretched-out smartphone display, that can serve as everything from volume and brightness controls to an auto-suggest field for typing to sophisticated input device for specialist media editing software. Apple TouchID At the corner of the Touch Bar is a TouchID sensor a la the iPhone, which can be used to unlock the computer and verify a user's identity for app purchases and online shopping. Yes, it'll be even more seamless and simple to blow money on Amazon this holiday season. Apple The touchpad The touchpad has been totally redesigned for the 2016 MacBook Pro models. For one thing, it takes up a lot more surface area than it did before, allowing for finer control and better handling. For another, it now uses the same Force Touch technology that Apple runs on its latest iPhones, allowing various levels of touch pressure to create different inputs. Apple The keyboard The 2016 MacBook Pros boast a "second-generation" butterfly type of switch, which the company says will provide a better feel under your fingers than previous versions. The idea is to make each key more stable and responsive, compared to traditional scissor-style switches. Apple The screen Apple boasts that the newest MacBook Pros feature P3 color, meaning that 25% more colors are available than the usual RGB, particularly in the area of greens and reds. The 13-inch model features a 2560x1600 native resolution, and the 15-incher takes it up to 2880x1800. Apple The hardware There are three different models of MacBook Pro – a 15-inch, a 13-inch, and another 13-inch that features standard function keys instead of the Touch Bar and TouchID sensor. This lower-end model packs a Core i5 dual-core at 2.0Ghz, 8GB of RAM, Intel Iris Graphics 540, and a 256GB SSD for storage. The 13-incher with the Touch Bar ups the ante to an Iris 550 for graphics and 2.9GHz core processor speed, while the 15-inch model packs a 2.6GHz Core i7 quad-core, 16GB of RAM, and a dedicated Radeon Pro 450 GPU. Apple The scoop The whole lineup is available to order now, though you'll have to wait two or three weeks for the two higher-end models to start shipping. The Touch Bar-less model starts at $1500, the 13-incher with the Touch Bar goes for $1800, and the 15-inch model is priced at $2400.

1. Membrane Trafficking: a) Membrane wave: In collaboration with Dr. Min Wu from National University of Singapore, we established a mechanochemical feedback model that accounts for the ultrafast rhythmic propagation (>1micron/sec) of the endocytic machine on plasma membrane in immune cells. We demonstrated that the feedbacks between membrane shape sensing and sculpturing by endocytic machine underlie the oscillations in both the cortical protein levels and the local membrane shape changes. In the wake of these oscillations, phase wave emerges from the global activation profile of the cortical protein recruitment. Instead of physically moving in space, it is the spatial gradient in the timings of the local oscillation that gives the appearance of propagation along the membrane. The phase velocity, inversely proportional to such spatial gradient, dictates the apparent ultrafast propagation that is much faster than any conventional cortex-bound rhythmic propagation. An even larger membrane deformation elicits the Ca2+ pathway that synchronizes the rhythms into a coherent standing oscillation across the entire membrane surface. Plasma membrane in secretory cells is thus an excitable medium: the membrane shape change supports the ultrafast long-ranged signal transmission across cortex. This paper is currently under review in PLoS Biology. 2. Cell Division: a) Spatial-temporal regulation of spindle assembly checkpoint: Faithful chromosome segregation in mitosis requires stable microtubule spindle attachment at the kinetochores (KT) of each chromosome. Until then the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) is active to prevent mitotic progression. However, the everlasting stochastic fluctuations and large KT number in the cell would deny robust timing of SAC silencing. From the stably attached KT, SAC components stream toward the spindle poles (SP). Incorporating the spatial-temporal regulation, we established a theoretical model that unprecedentedly accounted for the fidelity of SAC silencing. The poleward streaming from the attached KTs is integrated by the SP, yet diverted by the unattached KTs until the last KT-spindle attachment, causing a >2 fold jump in the SP accumulation. Such jump robustly triggers SAC silencing after and only after the last KT-spindle attachment. Our model explained intriguing observations on mitosis and offered a unified conceptual framework: Spatial-temporal regulation ensures the fidelity of SAC silencing. This paper is currently under review in Nature Communications. b) The role of spindle pole organization in faithful mitotic exit: In previous work, we found that the spindle pole integrates the information from the kinetochores to govern the progression of mitosis, in particular the SAC silencing with regard to the last kinetochore-spindle attachment and thereby the correct timing for anaphase onset. In this study, we extended our model to incorporate the effects of supernumerary and the disorganization of spindle poles, which often manifest themselves in cancer cells. We found that fine-control over the number, the geometry and the size of spindle poles is the fundamental determinant for mitotic progression. Furthermore, the organization of the spindle poles must coordinate with the kinetochore tension for faithful anaphase onset. This result sheds light on the origin and the treatment of cancer cells. It puts diverse observations in cancer cell mitosis into perspective. The draft is currently in preparation. 3. Cell Motility: a) Mechanochemistry of focal adhesion formation: Durotaxis cells prefer to migrate toward stiffer substrate is important for many physiological processes. Focal adhesion (FA) is a dynamically formed organelle, serving as the foot of migrating cells. To better understand the mechanosensation underlying durotaxis, we provided the first theoretical model that integrates the contributions of branched actin network and stress fiber in the FA formation. It captured the salient features of FA growth in coupling with the cell leading edge protrusion. The model predicted two traction force peaks emerging within the growing FA: While the distal traction peak originates from the catch bonds that mediate FA-retrograde actin flux engagement, the central one is generated by the actomyosin contractility from stress fiber. The centraal traction peak oscillation due to the stress fiber-mediated negative feedback optimizes the range of FA mechanosensing on substrate stiffness. The competition between the two sources of tractions gives rise to the traction peak oscillation within single FAs. We experimentally perturbed the two types of actin networks, and convincingly verified these unique model predictions. Our study thereby established the coherent picture of FA formation. FA is truly a mechanosensory organelle: Its traction force generation is part of the FA-intrinsic regulatory feedbacks, which consolidate the dynamics of branched actin network and stress fiber to precisely measure up the substrate stiffness in the physiological range. Our work thus sheds light on the mechanistic nature of durotaxis. This paper is in collaboration with Dr. Clare Waterman's lab, and to be submitted to Nature Cell Biology. b) Nonlocal effects in governing the orientation of branched actin network: In our previous work published in Physical Biology, we carried out stochastic simulation that provides the unified framework on the load-velocity relationship of branched actin network. We found that the orientation of branched actin network is one of the key determinants for the adaptive mechanical response of the actin network. In this study, we derived the analytic model on how the cell membrane dictates actin network orientation. While many models have been developed to study the role of branching actin networks in motility, one important component of those models is the distribution of filament orientations relative to the cell membrane. Two mean-field models previously proposed are generalized and analyzed. In particular, we find that both models uniquely select for a dominant orientation pattern. In the linear case, the pattern is the eigenfunction associated with the principal eigenvalue. In the nonlinear case, we show there exists a unique equilibrium and that the equilibrium is locally stable. Approximate techniques are then used to provide evidence for global stability. This paper is currently under review in SIAM Journal of Applied Mathematics.

Early in the global health program, students participate in a cultural immersion trip. These trips provide an opportunity for students to immerse themselves in a culture different from their own and gain tangible experience in a global health setting. Locations range from South America to Africa to Asia. Students from all NUNM programs are welcome to join cultural immersion trips.
The Master of Science in Global Health program has a required fieldwork component that enables students to pursue practical experience locally, nationally or internationally with support and mentorship from expert faculty. Students develop a project in conjunction with a global health organization, which serves the organization and provides the student with practical skills. Fieldwork projects involve diverse activities such as ethnographies, educational program development, secondary data analysis, environmental health assessment and community activism. Students share the results of their fieldwork projects with the School of Graduate Studies and at global health conferences, and can use them as a launch point for future employment. Students find the fieldwork experience meaningful and often life changing.

Trip Descriptions
The setting for this trip is Ometepe, an island formed by two volcanoes rising from Lake Nicaragua. Within this stunning UNESCO biosphere reserve, students work with the oldest naturopathic global health nonprofit, Natural Doctors International, shadowing a variety of providers in an integrative naturopathic primary care clinic. The trip is community centered and community driven: students homestay with a local family, work with campesino farmers, and gain unparalleled rural clinical experience in a developing country. The curriculum prioritizes clinical service, cultural humility, and understanding the economic and political factors of globalization that impact global health policy. This is a true cultural immersion, a trip that empowers every participant to ignite their passion for social justice with knowledge, service and action.
Taos is a unique part of the United States, filled with historical pueblos, organic farms, eco-housing, art and natural healing environments. This trip allows students to explore the multicultural, spiritual and natural surroundings of this region. Students will be introduced to ancient native cultures, learn from sustainable farmers, hike in the Sangre de Christo Mountains, visit El Santuario de Chimayo, and relax in the Ojo Caliente mineral springs. These diverse experiences will expose students to some of the rich cultures and landscapes found only in this region of New Mexico.
Tanzania is one of the most ethnobotanically diverse places in the world. With more than 10,000 plants, Tanzania is rich with botanical medicines. Unfortunately, those riches don't translate into health care. With a physician to patient ratio of 1:250,000, Tanzania has extremely limited access to medical resources. This trip immerses students in Tanzanian culture. They learn the medical spectrum, from large-scale clinical trials on HIV, to indigenous medicines used in the villages, to the economic impact botanical medicine can have to improve a community. Equipped with the WHO priorities, our students have the opportunity to teach international public health topics to Tanzanian students. Tropical disease topics, such as malaria, dengue, TB and parasites, are studied in a country where these are significant public health issues. Students develop an understanding of social justice and community connection, as well as a genuine understanding of the African pace of life.
Ghana is one of Africa's fastest growing economies where large hospitals in the capital epitomize the impact of globalization, while rural villages live by centuries-old cultural traditions in resource-poor settings. This makes Ghana an ideal location for students interested in the application of community-based participatory research, health program development, and real-life experiences with cultural humility in the delivery of health care and social services. Set between the densely arboreal Akuapim Mountains and the bustling capital city of Accra, students are fully immersed in the rich Ghanaian culture—from local cuisine to music. Students participate in a variety of activities from collaborative learning opportunities within a local women's organization to shadowing herbalists, midwives and doctors in both urban hospital and rural clinic settings. Through these experiences, students gain a deeper understanding of how traditional medicine and biomedicine interrelate to influence local healthcare practices.
Thailand is unique in the world of traditional medicine. Because of its central location between China and India, two similar but different forms of medicine merged there. Classical Chinese medicine combined with Indian Ayurveda and Thai folk medicine to form Thai-vedic medicine. On this cultural immersion trip, students study and experience Thai-vedic medicine in Northern Thailand in the towns of Chiang Mai and Pai. They study Thai herbal medicine, nutrition and cooking, Thai massage and bodywork, and how Buddhist theory influences Thai-vedic medicine. This global health experience is rooted in traditional medicine and provides a personal, experiential understanding of the Thai culture and the modalities of traditional Thai medicine.
Trip in development
Argentina holds a rich history influenced by European immigration and indigenous traditions. One of the most progressive Latin American countries, Argentina stands as a leading example of universal healthcare. This trip places students first in the vibrant metropolitan capitol of Buenos Aires, and then in the fertile province of Misiones to the north. In Buenos Aires they engage in traditional Argentine culture, investigate the legacy of human rights issues, and consider the policy implications of healthcare access for all. In Misiones, they are folded into the rhythms of a biodynamic farm while studying native medicinal herbs and organic mate production. They are exposed to a rare health outreach with an indigenous tribe, and examine the practices of tropical medicine. This immersion affords an exceptional study of public health and Argentinian culture while traveling through the greatest urban and rural landscapes of the world.

my wife and i dated for 9 years straight before i proposed. married for 3 years now and its been a wonderful 12 years. i was 19 when we met; 19 and dead broke. working at a clothing retail store chain to save up for college. i was accepted to a great university hours away from nyc. she automatically transferred schools so we can have an easier relationship.
she graduated, i still had a year left. she supported me financially and pushed me to pursue all my dreams. when i graduated she got me a suit, shoes and watch for future job interviews. i was unemployed for close to 2 years and she fully supported me in every aspect possible. my kenneth cole watch is worth and means more to me than my platinum rolex day date.
today we are both very successful. successful in both marriage and careers. from day one i promised myself that i will get my wife anything she wants and likes. she does not openly ask me for anything since she is capable of making her own purchases but i make sure she enjoys the finer things in life (travel, designer clothing and bags, etc...).
a good friend of mine is a divorce lawyer. joking he said how will i split our assets if we split (he asks all friends since he likes to hear different scenarios). i told him this without hesitation"
"i will give her everything. the cars, properties, accounts, all the assets. i slept on a park bench in the past i don't mind doing it again if it means she will be comfortable."
my friend said in all his years as a divorce lawyer he has never heard anything like that before.
people may give me looks when i present my wife with expensive luxuries or when i tell a sales rep to wrap up anything she likes. i could care less how the haters react. i came from nothing her support made me who i am.

Oh, and why does neither Croatia or Serbia want that piece of land? Because claiming it would delegitimize each's claim to greater territory.

Chevron Corporation has made a significant oil discovery at the Anchor prospect in the deepwater U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Anchor is Chevron's second discovery in the deepwater Gulf in less than a year.
'The Anchor discovery, along with the previously announced Guadalupe discovery, are significant finds for us in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico. We had one of our best years with the drill bit in 2014, reporting more than 30 discoveries worldwide and adding an estimated one billion barrels of new resources to our holdings,' said Jay Johnson, senior vice president, Upstream, Chevron Corporation.
The Green Canyon Block 807 Well No. 2 encountered oil pay in multiple Lower Tertiary Wilcox Sands. The well, which was spudded in August 2014, is located approximately 140 miles (225 km) off the coast of Louisiana in 5,183 feet (1,580 m) of water and was drilled to a depth of 33,749 feet (10,287 m). Appraisal drilling will begin in 2015.
'Chevron's leading position in the Gulf, where we are expecting further growth in the near-term from recent project startups at Jack/St. Malo and Tubular Bells, is further underpinned by this discovery,' said Jeff Shellebarger, president, Chevron North America Exploration and Production Company. 'We currently have five deepwater drillships operating in the Gulf, two of which are focused on exploration activities.'

This was a clean facility and somewhat convenient to key attractions. We got an email to notify the B&B of when we would arrive. When we got to the B&B, we were checked in by a younger girl who seemed surprised we were there. On our second night, we were told by her mother that they had placed us in the wrong room and we had to move upstairs. Not very convenient. Also, very noisy. We could hear the family that owns the B&B through the walls of our first room and our neighbors in the second room

New France coach Guy Noves has vowed to bring back the excitement following the national team's World Cup debacle under predecessor Philippe Saint-Andre.
France were often accused of being dull during Saint-Andre's tepid and fruitless four years in charge of Les Bleus, which culminated in a World Cup humiliation at the hands of eventual champions New Zealand.
Four years on from making the mighty All Blacks tremble on home turf in a 8-7 World Cup final defeat in Auckland, France were put to the sword in spectacular fashion in this year's quarter-finals in Cardiff, suffering a chastening 62-13 defeat.
France were mostly uninspired as well as unsuccessful under Saint-Andre but Noves says he's going to bring back the flair-filled rugby for which the French have always been famed.
"My first mission is to try to implement a rugby for the future, one which brings fans to the stadium: spectacular rugby," said the veteran former Toulouse coach.
"I want us to try to use the whole pitch, all its width, and hence go towards a rugby based on movement which is inspired by that which made Argentine rugby successful, which, for me, is a true example.
"There's no point talking about New Zealand because they're too far ahead."
Under Saint-Andre's predecessor, Marc Lievremont, France were often criticised but they won the Grand Slam in 2010, never finished lower than third in the Six Nations and reached the 2011 World Cup final.
Under Saint-Andre, France never finished above fourth in the Six Nations, never beat New Zealand, South Africa, Ireland or Wales, and ended on their Cardiff mauling in which they conceded their most points ever in a match against the All Blacks.
With such a miserable recent record — Saint-Andre's France won just 46.67 percent of their matches, much less than the already highly-criticised 60 percent record of Lievremont's team — and such a lack of creativity in their play, Noves acknowledges it will take time to turn this outfit into an exciting team.
"Right now there's no point answering," said the 61-year-old when asked if this team could produce the spectacular style he envisages.
"But I have no choice, that's where we have to arrive. We have to work profoundly to become better armed in the future."
Noves coached Toulouse, his hometown club where he also donned the black shirt as a player, from 1993 to 2015, guiding them to their most successful period since the 1920s.
They won the French title nine times and the European Cup a record four times.
And Noves says he will bring the same management style that worked so successfully at club level to the international game.
"The human way I work with my players and staff, that will be the motor of life, plain and simple," he said.
"To get the best out of players and most of all to allow them to express themselves as best they can, I think you have to give them a lot."

I've always wanted an apartment with a fire place. In reality, it actually seems like a pretty terrible idea–I mean me, unsupervised around flames? Not a great combo. Still, I grew up with one glowing in my house every winter and they exude a coziness that I just love. Plus, they give you the perfect space to hang your Christmas stockings.
Our apartment now has very little wall space that hasn't already been taken up–we have an unused stair banister, but for some reason, hanging stocking on there just didn't look right. So what's a girl to do besides create a fake mantel, right? Right.
First things first: get your tape. Washi tape is expensive, so I recommend going with a fun colored painters tape for most of the big stuff–I love the bright yellow we found, and we didn't even end up using a whole roll. Next? Pick your wall space. The unused space at the top of our stairwell was perfect. Now, we're going to go step-by-step, but no worries…it's super easy. You just need someone to help you eyeball if it's straight or not!
Step 1 (left): Tape two horizontal lines on top of each other, with about an inch and a half between the two. The bottom should be a few inches shorter on each end than the top. Connect with a diagonal piece of tape on each end.
Step 2 (right): Starting at the ends of the bottom horizontal piece, run two vertical pieces of tape down on each side.
Step 3 (left): Create the center detailing. You'll need to find the center of your faux mantel and put a short piece of tape horizontally below that about 12 inches. Then, work your way up with two pieces diagonally to connect with the bottom of your mantel's "ledge."
Step 4 (right): Create the "hearth." You'll need to run two pieces of tape horizontally from the right and left sides of your center detailing, each ending about a foot from the outer edges. Run a piece of tape vertically from the edge of each to the ground, parallel to the outer edges.
Steps 5 and 6: Now is the time to add some detailing! I used tape to create things that look like the panels of wood that you would find in a traditional fireplace, but really, you can do whatever you want! For these, I did cut the width of the tape in half–using the normal width just looked like too much.
Finish it off with a few fun add ons, like the washi tape candle sticks I made. We love the way it turned out (we're considering keeping it up all year 'round!), and we can't wait to hang our stockings. Not a bad fix for a NYC apartment, huh?

You must be 18 years old to buy e-cigarettes.
Worried about gaining weight after you quit smoking? Don't be.
Quitting smoking and weight gain don't have to go together. The reason women gain weight when they quit smoking is because they often substitute snacking to satisfy an oral craving.
Vaping yummy flavors is an excellent way to satisfy those oral cravings without putting either carcinogens or calories in your body.
Smoking acts as an appetite suppressant and may slightly increase your metabolism as well. When you quit smoking, your appetite and metabolism return to normal. Also, your ability to smell and taste food improves after you quit smoking. This can make food more appealing, which may lead you to eat more.
Studies found that women are at greater risk than men to go back to smoking as a way to avoid weight gain.
Vaping yummy flavors can help keep you from gaining weight when you quit smoking.
Of course, in addition to vaping, there are several other healthy choices you can make to ease the transition, such as exercise, healthy snacks and avoiding alcohol. Not only is alcohol high in calories, it can also trigger the desire to smoke. For many women, smoking when drinking is a natural.
Be good to yourself, and reward yourself for what you're doing to improve your health. Treat yourself to a new e-cig flavor, go out and buy a cute new accessory or outfit to wear when you go out vaping on the town. Whatever it takes to give yourself the time it takes to bring out the Vaping Vamp in you!!
Remember, smoking and weight gain don't have to go together. You can quit smoking without gaining weight. You just need the right strategy, tools and support.
Important Disclaimer: We can't promote the e cigarette as a proven smoking cessation tool due to FDA guidelines regulating the e cigarette. We also can't promise that it will help you to avoid gaining weight when you quit smoking.
