Bug Off! Tick Season Safety Tips and Tricks
Written on May 16, 2014 at 10:44 am , by Lauren Cardarelli
Tick. The 4-lettered word alone gives me the heebie-jeebies—and for good reason. These creepy crawlers are the perpetrators of one of the fastest growing epidemics to date, Lyme disease (LD). And now that the temps are finally warming up, ticks are back in full swing. (I've already pulled two of the little buggers off my pup. Not cool.) Are you prepared? We talked about the nasty pests with A Twist of Lyme author Andrea H. Caesar, who has battled chronic LD since she was 11-years-old. Here are the must-know dirty deets to bite back.
The No-Zone Walking Fido around the block? Catching up on the newest FITNESS issue poolside in the shade? Risky business, girlfriend. "You can get a tick [bite] in a parking lot…anytime of the year," warns Caesar. Like us, ticks are most active from April to September. Steer clear of wooded, shady areas as much as possible; in particular, stonewalls and moist leaf piles are their playgrounds. Hitting the open trail? Stick to the middle of the path, away from weedy edges.
Play It Safe Sport light-colored clothing to your next outdoor BBQ so you can easily spot the bad guys and tie long locks back into a tight ponytail. "Then they can't crawl right up into your scalp," says Caesar. (Your fave baseball cap will do the trick, too!) Swap out the shorts for leggings or pants tucked into tall socks when tackling yard work. The latter is a total fashion faux pas, we know, but hey—wouldn't you rather be safe than sorry!? And don't forget the repellent sprays/lotions. The CDC suggests products with 20 percent or more DEET, although Caesar—who lives a non-toxic life—prefers catnip oil. "It can be ten times more effective [than DEET]!" Her fave: Ava Anderson's Natural Bug Spray ($19.95, avaandersonnontoxic.com).
Check Mate "In my house, we do a tick check morning and night from head to toe," says Caesar. "The problem is that deer ticks are the size of a piece of dirt so you're not only looking—it's a sensory test, too." Thoroughly comb through your hair with your fingers and be sure to examine your, err, nooks and crannies (where they unfortunately love to take cover). According to the CDC, it takes more than 24 to 36 hours of attachment for ticks to transmit LD bacteria…hence the hide-and-seek urgency. Found one? Start by disinfecting the area with an alcohol swab. Next, use tweezers to grab the tick "head" as close to the skin as possible. Pull straight out and disinfect the bite site. "Put it in a plastic bag with a damp cotton ball if you want to send it away for testing," advises Caesar. "It's much more effective and easy to test a tick than a person!"
Tick's Best Friend You may follow all of the prevention rules, but your pooch? Doubtful. Animals are LD carriers, which includes those not-so-welcome houseguests. "Set mouse traps to keep them under control!" says Caesar. As for pets, discuss repellent products with your vet, inspect their coats daily and reduce tick habitats in your yard, if possible. "My dogs are crated downstairs [at night] because of LD," Caesar says.
Ticking Time Bomb "In its chronic form, Lyme disease can represent a complex set of infections involving the nervous system and its most basic functions," says Caesar. "But it really also represents all of the body systems." Translation: There is a seemingly endless rap sheet of symptoms, making the illness difficult to diagnose. Some general indicators to be aware of include achiness, headaches, tingling or numbness in extremities, fatigue and fever, which can have severe implications if undetected or ignored.

Spring Break-Inspired Cocktails from a Fit-Focused Bartender!
Written on March 23, 2012 at 1:47 pm , by Christie Griffin
Between the warm(er than usual) weather and March Madness, we're feeling a little nostalgic for Spring Break in college! So we scored a couple cocktail recipes from Bryan Dayton, the owner and Beverage Director at OAK at Fourteenth in Boulder, Colorado…including a non-alcoholic one, for those of you who gave up booze for Lent/New Year's/Who Knows Why.
Before we hand over the happy hour inspiration, you should know whom it's coming from. Bryan hasn't just been a mixologist for 15 years—he's also a trail runner (the higher the altitude, the better) with an incredible race resume. Nice!
My Little Honey

Cucumber Smash
- 2 slices of cucumber

Springtime in the Kitchen
Written on March 21, 2011 at 3:45 pm , by Karla Walsh
- Strawberry Bruschetta: It may be a few more weeks before the best berries hit stores, but I just had my first taste and can't wait for more! This dish will make an ideal snack, dessert or even a decadent breakfast. (203 calories, 5 g fat)
- Garden Fresh Asparagus Soup: Call me crazy, but it doesn't feel like spring without asparagus. This bowl can be served heated or chilled, and feel free to substitute low-fat Greek yogurt for the creme fraiche. (203 calories, 13 g fat)
- Marinated Garden Lentil Salad Pita: Simply toss, mix and eat! Vegetarians and meat-eaters alike will enjoy how simple, tasty and fiber-filled this recipe is. (396 calories, 11 g fat)

- Raspberry-Mango Sundae: Round out your dinner—or snack on—nonfat frozen yogurt topped with a fruity, sweet sauce. The best part, besides the excellent nutrition stats? Frozen berries are recommended, so they'll keep for weeks in your fridge. (167 calories, 2 g fat)

Don't Forget to Spring Forward!
Written on March 11, 2011 at 6:00 pm , by Karla Walsh
The not-so-welcome news for some of us: Clocks "spring forward" this Sunday—meaning that we lose an hour of our already limited sleep. But we at FITNESS consider this well worth it, since what we lose in sleep we gain in extra post-workday sun time. That means more opportunities for outdoor evening exercise!
Here are a few fun sleep-related tools that may not help you snooze more, but do guarantee to make the switch a bit more bearable or fun:
For soothing…The White Noise app will play your favorite soothing sounds (wind, showers, ocean) as well as some options that strike us as not-so-calming (vacuum, violent noise or train). And it will play for as long as you like, because, appropriately, there are multiple sleep timers. ($1.99, iTunes Store)
For laughs…The mattress company Sealy recently released a new app that harkens back to the popular junior high fortune cookie joke. Simply snap a photo you're your smart phone or iPod touch and place a "in bed" caption after whatever you like. (Free, iTunes store)
When all else fails…Perhaps you could find someone who actually sells the Sleep Safe Tape, so that when you do finally nod off, others will think you're as alert as ever. (Of course, we don't really endorse this kind of trickery, but it sure is a creative idea!)
Do you look forward to setting your clocks ahead or struggle with the switch?

"Revenge" is ready to return to ABC, and now fans are being given new inside scoop on tonight's all-new episode, "Revenge" episode 3x11 titled "Homecoming." On Friday, Jan. 3, The Revenge ABC Facebook shared a sneak peek for the episode. Spoiler TV also shared behind the scenes photos from the filming of the episode.
At the end of the mid-season finale, Emily Thorne was shot by her new husband after he overheard a snippet of conversation between her and his mother. Emily will not die from her wounds, but it will have an impact. Previews for the first episode back tease Emily having amnesia.
That is also shown in the sneak peek clip for the episode. Emily will wake up to find Daniel there, and she doesn't remember anything. He is cautious because he knows he shot her. Emily's amnesia will not last long though. Sunil Nayar teased the following about what is next on the series to TV Line:
She has at the moment lost her memory of all of it. We play with the amnesia idea in many different ways.
As for Daniel, he will have his world turned upside down. He trusted Emily, and she abused that trust. His mother will also have a lot of fun during the second half of the season. She knows Emily is not on the level, and Victoria will use that to her advantage. Victoria will now have all the power.
"Revenge" will continue to air on Sunday nights on ABC.

Many people feel there is a need for alimony reform in New Jersey because just like people change, so do the times.
Lynn Sebold is divorced. She has custody of her children and owes lifetime alimony. When her job situation changed, her income decreased and now she can no longer make the payments. Because of this, she is being threatened with a warrant for her arrest. And Sebold is not alone, situations like this are happening all over the Garden State.
Jersey City Assemblyman, Charles Mainor is leading the charge to pass an alimony reform bill in New Jersey. He's received hundreds of letters from people all across the state desperately asking for his help to make this policy change.
Robin Hair is another woman who had difficulty dealing with alimony laws in New Jersey.
Robin married James Hair in September of 2007. James was divorced and obligated to pay his ex-wife alimony payments for life which was about $1,625/month. The couple's joyous marriage quickly turned to a nightmare when James was diagnosed with glioblastoma, a form of terminal brain cancer in May, 2011. He eventually had to stop working, was approved for social security disability and his income was reduced by 35%.
Robin and James filed to adjust their alimony payments because they met the requirements which included a change of circumstances due to illness, income change, approved for social security disability and the ex-wife was even making more than the ex-husband at that time. But the judge would not give a downward modification, let alone terminate the payments.
After months of efforts to adjust the payments, they eventually were granted mediation. James was so ill he couldn't even attend, but was still forced to pay a settlement of nearly $35,000.
When Assemblyman Mainor heard this story, he was moved. He said, "I am so sorry for your loss, number one, and I'm so sorry for what you and your husband had to go through during the last days of his life, but I can only hope and pray that this bill will make sure that no one else has to go through something like that."
James has since passed away.

Desi Arnaz Jr.
He helped make TV Guide Magazine a hit right out of the box. And we, in turn, helped make his life utterly confusing! On April 3, 1953, a chubby-cheeked newborn named Desiderio Alberto Arnaz IV — eventually known as Desi Arnaz Jr. — graced the cover of our very first issue with a cover line touting him as "Lucy's $50,000,000 Baby." Lucy, of course, was Lucille Ball, the madcap, flame-tressed star of America's most adored sitcom at the time, I Love Lucy, while Dad was Cuban bandleader Desi Arnaz — and both of them knew the value of publicity...

Although "al carbon" means to cook over charcoal, bring this dish indoors by sautéing steak, onions, and peppers to make a one-pan taco filling reminiscent of fajitas. The piquant flavors of lime and garlic in the dressing enhance almost anything, so feel free to substitute chicken, lamb, or shrimp for the beef.
Cooking Light OCTOBER 2005
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add bell pepper to pan, and cook 4 minutes. Add onion to pan, and sauté 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Place pepper mixture in a large bowl; cover and keep warm.
Add beef to pan; cook 7 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Add to pepper mixture. Add chili powder, juice, oil, salt, and garlic to bowl; toss to coat.
Heat tortillas according to package directions. Spoon steak mixture evenly over 8 tortillas. Top each taco with about 1 teaspoon cilantro and 2 1/4 teaspoons sour cream.

Obama wins: Where to invest now
There are plenty of opportunities to make money, though some of the choices aren't obvious.
The stock market loves President Barack Obama. With all its cheating heart, and all its mercenary soul.
More than that, actually -- it adores him. The love story of Wall Street and Obama is a bromance like no other, a man-crush for the ages.
Despite his threats to soak the wealthy for more taxes, despite Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's attack on savers, despite even his threat to kill special treatment for dividends, institutional investors have thrown themselves at Obama's feet as they have not done in the first term of any president in the past century.
You could look it up. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) has gained 76% since his inauguration in January 2009, while the Nasdaq 100 Index ($NDX) is up 128%.
Compare that withthe S&P 500's 13% decline and the Nasdaq 100's 45% wipeout in the first term of his predecessor, George W. Bush; or the mere 25% gain in the first term of conservative icon Ronald Reagan; or even the 60% gain in the halcyon early 1990s in the first term of Bill Clinton.
The staggering advance of the market is probably one of Obama's greatest accomplishments, and yet, in a rich irony, political sensitivities prevent him from bragging about it.
The beautiful part is that this was not a coincidence, beginner's luck or a historical fluke.
The administration and the Federal Reserve run by his appointed chairman, Bernanke, have systematically stuffed big banks' pockets with cash in an unending rescue effort, slashed interest rates to the lowest levels of the past 300 years, diverted senior citizens' savings to revive the moribund residential construction industry and showered drugmakers and insurers with fresh sources of revenue from his health care overhaul.
Little wonder then that Wall Street couldn't bear the idea of parting ways with the Obama administration, and thus over the past two months threw an extended tantrum to protest the surprising advancement of GOP challenger Mitt Romney in the polls.
Now that the president has won a second term, you can expect most of the sectors that have benefited from the present administration to keep on rolling. Here are some top prospects:
Health care
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the president's health care initiative, set out new mandates, subsidies and credits to employers and individuals to increase Americans' access to health care. Upon its passage in March 2010, investors began boosting the shares of drugmakers, insurance providers and hospitals because they all suddenly had a lot more paying customers, courtesy of the government and taxpayers.
Shares of Pfizer (PFE), for example, had fallen 50% during the eight years of the Bush administration, January 2001 to January 2009. In contrast, its shares are up 70% during the Obama administration, almost in a straight line. Some 64% of the gains in the maker of Viagra, Zoloft and Lipitor have come since Obamacare passed.
Insurance provider UnitedHealth Group (UNH) is up 73% since Obamacare passed. Smaller biotechs have gained a lot more, led by Alexion Pharmaceuticals (ALXN), up 252%.
Overall, SPDR Health Care Select Sector (XLV), exchange-traded fund, which includes all the health care stocks in the S&P 500, is up 31% since the president's health-care law passed, versus 27% for the broad market.
More from MarketWatch:
If you think we're going to survive this, I have a bridge to sell to you. It's simple math. You can't spend more than you take in. Simple. Ask all of the knuckleheads that bought houses they knew they couldn't afford, and now are broke. I'm afraid we're in really deep doo doo this time around.
A slim majority of American voters wanted this as seen by the next election, so now they have it. A lot of folks are looking to see what the government can give them, rather than seeing what they could accomplish with a little ambition on their own. Four years from now when the next elections take place, the next Chief Executive will be left with a mess to deal with, so good luck there. How does America erase 20 trillion plus dollars in debt in the future? Government manipulation of statistics used to make the unemployment stats. look better than they really are will eventually catch up to the reality that this is not happening. I doubt the USA will shrink to a point where we are considered a 3rd rate country, but most certainly, our international credit rating will take a few more hits.
I suppose though we will survive because that same middle class, that this administration vows it is improving life for, will simply take the brunt of the bad economic decisions, until they will be considered as poor Americans as well. Foreign cars will continue to outsell domestic ones, because they are cheaper and more reliable. Goods from China will continue to over sell in America, as there is no incentive to buy the more expensive goods produced in our own country.
As a retired citizen, who planned pretty carefully, to be able to survive quite nicely on my retirement income, I have watched that reality continue to slip away.
God Bless America, as divine intervention will surely be needed to right the ship, from the course, my once great country is going down now.
Are you kidding??
Who wants to invest now that Obama has 4 more years, and wants all successful people and businesses to hand over the profits.
The stock market is toast. the seniors have the money, but guess what, we ain't gonna put money in the market now that Obama is on for another 4 years.
Go get the money from the Obama generation. Those that have any money!!!!

Another View -- Susie Hackler and Rick Russman: The raiding of NH's dedicated funds continues
The struggle to balance the budget is nothing new, but unfortunately neither is the solution: Once again, the governor and our legislators plan to dip into dedicated funds to balance the books. It's hardly a winning strategy.
Dedicated funds are those fees paid by users, or participants in certain activities, that are "dedicated" because they are designed to fund or cover costs associated with those specific activities. In state government, there are hundreds of such fees, established over time to fund specific purposes.
The Land and Community Heritage Investment Program (LCHIP) is a dedicated fund. Since 2007, New Hampshire citizens have paid a $25 fee on mortgage transactions to fund land and historic conservation. When you pay the fee, you assume the money actually goes to conservation. But it doesn't. Over the last five years, almost two-thirds of LCHIP fees have been "swept" into the state's general fund to help balance the budget (in fiscal years 2012 and 2013, all the monies went to this budget-balancing act). So while fee-payers are told they're supporting a conservation account, they are, in fact, supporting general government operations, making the LCHIP fee, in reality, a mortgage tax.
Gov. Maggie Hassan has proposed fully funding LCHIP in the second year of her budget, yet legislative budget writers are preparing to once again dip into LCHIP's dedicated fund, taking half the money in the second year of the budget for the general fund.
And the governor's budget proposal goes one step further. Buried in House Bill 2 is a provision authorizing the governor - without legislative oversight - to use "an amount of dedicated funds for transfer to the general fund, sufficient to cover the budget shortfall."
This broadly worded provision would allow the governor to use millions of dollars in dedicated user fees - collected for purposes ranging from transportation improvements and environmental protection to energy development and public safety - to fill the hole everyone knows exists in the current year's budget. And all without public hearings, legislative oversight, or any input from Granite Staters who pay these dedicated fees.
We understand that the state is having a difficult time balancing its operating budget, but when citizens pay a fee for one specific purpose, let's use it for that purpose or at least be given the courtesy of being told why it can't be used for that purpose.
If the budget situation demands redirecting those fees, say so, out in the open, through a public process instead of through a provision buried in the depths of a budget bill.
And while LCHIP is just one example among hundreds of dedicated funds, it is one whose impact is felt across the Granite State. If there are no funds to protect our land and community heritage, we need to know that. If New Hampshire residents are getting slapped with a new mortgage tax, we need to know that, too, and hold our elected officials accountable.
Susie Hackler is the executive director of Conservation New Hampshire. Rick Russman is a former Republican state senator from Kingston.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I agree with the earlier poster who referred to Shaman with a 40% or higher crit rate. My girlfriend plays an elemental shaman (41/0/20) and she says that she can get her lightning bolt crit rate up to about 42%. This almost 50% free spells when all she does in a raid for dps is spam lightning bolt, and if she runs out of mana, it's time for r1 LB until it crits.
It's obvious that the talent was somewhat overpowered, but at the same time, the real issue at hand is shaman mana efficiency, especially in situations like raid bosses where the fights go on for anywhere from 5-15 minutes or more.
Rogues got improved sap for free this patch, something that has been asked for since WoW began, and Shaman have been asking for trainable Mana Tide for just as long. A trainable Mana Tide would increase their raid viability and their mana sustainability greatly, with no adverse affects for PvP.


text: I'm a little behind the pack on discovering the music of Benjamin Shaw, and most specifically his debut ep I Got The Pox, The Pox is What I Got which was released on the great Audio Antihero label (also home to Nosferatu D2). To refer to this as singer songwriter fare would probably be doing it a dis-service but it is borne from the same kind of mangled consciousness which informs the work of all the best ones anyway. The hacks tend to go wrong in their attempts to clean this up to something more easily digestible.

Posted by klarionc on 4th Oct 2013
Very enjoyable blend. If I order it again, I'll try to adjust the balance of flavors. It's nice to have that option.
The standard option is not quiet "nutella", but it's something one can vape all day long or use as a palette cleanser because it has such a clean taste.
Posted by Jenn on 30th Aug 2013
This came in one of my first orders from ecblends. The taste is phenomenal! It is like warm nutella melting in your mouth. Not too sweet....just delightful, flavorful, and smooth! Could not get enough! Ordering more today!!!
Posted by Jeanine Ruble on 4th Jul 2013
When I first got this it produced no vapor. So I put it in the drawer. A week later I thought I'd try it again. I added about 5 mls of vg to my 15ml bottle and OMGOSH, it is DELICIOUS. I just ordered a 30 ml bottle in 60/40.
Posted by Jeanine Ruble on 10th Jun 2013
I just received this Sat and it tastes great even though it hasn't steeped, however there is NO vapor production. I'm a little disappointed.
REPLY: The lack of vapor is from the 100% PG base mix. A base mix containing more VG will produce more vapor. :-)
Posted by Makahowin on 13th May 2013
I tried this when I first received it and it was not good. I let it steep for one week and still not very good. I will try after a couple weeks and hope it is better. I can't rally taste chocolate, hazelnut, or tobacco. Just really funky tasting to me but EcBlends is still the best!
Posted by Annihilated on 3rd Mar 2013
This flavor gets really old, really fast in my tanks. I'm using a vivi nova 3.5 tank and this flavor has to be removed washed and cleaned every week or so. The liquid will steep to black in the tank after a day because its kept warm and in a small amount. Because of this super steeping I believe it leaves a heavier residue on the coil and causes for a burnt taste much faster than my other flavors. Also I can't smoke this flavor as "hot" as I do the others. I ordered my third bottle 80/30 pg to make it thinner to help with wicking with little success.
When I first pour the flavor it and vape it's BEAUTIFUL but after an hour or two it becomes harsh and duller in flavor, I still LOVE it but this flavor must be to rich or something it just gets burnt so easily. One coil on chc lasts me 2 weeks, on my vanilla tobacco flavor it lasts me over a month np
Posted by SF on 8th Feb 2013
Good right out of the bottle and even better steeped. I'm not a fan of sweet juices and this one suits me just fine w/a hint of chocolate/hazelnut. ~ 80pg/20vg 12mg with no extras
Posted by slickdivide on 6th Feb 2013
At first I thought this tasted gross...2 weeks later and it is really quite good! I'm not usually into chocolate flavors, either.
Posted by Unknown on 26th Dec 2012
This is a great vape, I have made this my go to everyday, all day vape. The flavor is great, the longer it steeps the better it gets.
Posted by Unknown on 10th Nov 2012
I am not big of tobacco flavors, but this stuff is better than great!! It has moved to my top all day vape!!! You can taste the chocolate, hazelnut and the tobacco. If you haven't tried this, just order some...you won't be disappointed!!
Posted by CJ on 20th Oct 2012
This is one of my every day flavors. It's great as it comes, but I always add extra chocolate.
Posted by S. Green on 17th Sep 2012
I let this blend steep for roughly 3 weeks. Even so the taste was nowhere near what I expected. Since I'm 99% pleased with all the liquid I've purchased from EC Blends, I'm going to shuck this up to a taste preference issue. I didn't like it at all unfortunatley. But before I throw in the towel, I'm going to give it another try later.
Posted by JakLee82 on 4th Sep 2012
I love the chocolate and nutty taste I use it in almost all the flavors I make
Posted by Annihilated on 1st Aug 2012
This is a great all day vape, it seems to really give a nice kick. The chocolate is great and prominent while the tobacco makes it harsh in your throat but sweet in taste. overall great vape.
Posted by Juan on 25th Jul 2012
This is one of the best Ecblends juice I tried so far, I could vape this all day. Definitively worth a try.
Posted by kyle b. on 30th Jun 2012
it reminds me of very good pipe tobbaco, a little to sweet at first, it tasted like other coffee flavors but as it went on it tasted more tobbacoish but the sweet tones and nutty flavors make it taste very good
Posted by Unknown on 28th Jun 2012
loved it
Posted by Unknown on 27th Jun 2012
Best flavor I've had from anywhere! This will definitely be in stock at my house from now on!
Posted by Unknown on 22nd Jun 2012
I was a Marlboro smoker for 30+ yrs. This is the flavor that got me off the smokes for good. Started with a EGO and now I use a LavaTube at 4.3volts with a DCT Tank. All Day vape! Truely Great flavor!
Posted by J. ADAMS on 5th Jun 2012
Man this stuff really its the spot. I like traditional flavors the best and this stuff is good. The chocolate definitely enhances the all ready good tobacco taste. this ones a winner FOR SURE!
Posted by ECBlend on 4th May 2012
This is an older review by Vapor Chaser :
He hasn't been around the community lately, but we wanted to preserve his review. We miss seeing his updates!

This has got to be my all time favorite, well at least for now, Lol
Great taste & vapor. Ordered xtra choclate on last order, we'll see
how it goes, should be good !
Posted by Unknown on 13th Mar 2012
Really great taste...will be ordering this again but without the extra flavor...I can't quite taste the tobacco with the extra chocolate/hazelnut flavoring...really nice blend though...so smooth!
Posted by Jenn on 8th Mar 2012
Ordered this with extra chocolate and extra hazelnut. I knew i loved it from the first puff. Creamy chocolate hazelnut with a hint of tobacco. Perfect.
Posted by CajunBR on 29th Feb 2012
Really really like this one. Was not sure if I would but I start vaping this and find myself wanting more. I started with small bottle and now will order larger bottles of this from now on and will keep this on hand.
Posted by Matt on 2nd Jan 2012
My new favorite. Which one will be next?
Posted by jasyn on 30th Dec 2011
I have been vaping this continuously all day and it just gets better and better. Normally I don't like the tobacco flavors, but this is great! Will definitely buy a bigger bottle. The wife likes it, too.
Posted by Josh on 11th Dec 2011
I didn't expect all that much from it when I got a sample of it. But I gave it a try and it is absolutely phenomenal. I highly recommend it.
Posted by DiamondVape on 23rd Nov 2011
A very unique flavor with a good taste of chocolate followed by a decent hint of hazlenut then hits you with the tobacco flavor. Really good juice.

XX8 Days of Flight: Air Jordan XVI
The Air Jordan XVI takes center stage for today's XX8 Days of Flight countdown.
Air Jordan developed a magnetic shroud for the XVI, giving one shoe two distinct identites both on and off the court.
The use of patent leather on the toe box along with the removable shroud gave it the two-looks in one feel. Personally, I prefer to see them with the shroud on, as it gives them a distinct look while without it, it looks like just another basketball shoe.
What is your favorite Air Jordan XVI colorway?
Jordan Brand is celebrating XX8 Days Of Flight and today is all about the Air Jordan XIV. Tag your photos on Instagram with #XX8DaysOfFlight and you might see yourself on ajxx8.com.

I like them.
I second that.
These are nice. I prefer the shroud also
The 16′s are actually pretty decent
The white/navy blue are is favorite colorway
So underrated. I rocked my black/reds w/o the gaiter religiously. Still have them…quite yellowed.
I love the air jordan 16! These look dope! I wish jordan brand would have dropped some of those samples that are popping up now
Those r nice. Not mad at em at all. My fav 16s ar the joints with the wht pat-leathr and grey shroud on em.
Actually the 16s are the 1st jordans in which i heard rsomeone refer to by number. Lol. Somebody ask me "yo you effin wit them 16s?" I'm like,"16 what?" Dude jus laughed at me.
WHY IN THE HELL DID JB SCRAP THE XVIIs???? was soooo pissed cause I would have came out of my "Jordan hiatus" and bought a pair…. bass-turds!!! These are pretty dope too…
not if they had a free give away.

- RNAi technology 2011, CRCnetBASE"RNA interference (RNAi) is a system within living cells that helps to control active genes and their activity level. Two types of small RNA molecules--microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA)--are central to RNA interference. The discovery of RNAi was preceded first by observations of transcriptional inhibition by antisense RNA expressed in transgenic plants and more directly by reports of unexpected outcomes in experiments performed by plant scientists in the U.S. and The Netherlands in the early 1990s. RNAi technology are used for large-scale screens that systematically shut down each gene in the cell, which can help identify the components necessary for a particular cellular process or an event such as cell division. Exploitation of the pathway is also a promising tool in biotechnology and medicine. This book reviews the selective and robust effect of RNAi on gene expression which makes it a valuable research tool, both in cell culture and in living organisms because synthetic dsRNA introduced into cells can induce suppression of specific genes of interest. This book will introduce new technology in the study of RNA interference in microorganisms, plants and animals."--Provided by publisher.

- Strategic health technology incorporation 2009, AtyponTechnology is essential to the delivery of health care but it is still only a tool that needs to be deployed wisely to ensure beneficial outcomes at reasonable costs. Among various categories of health technology, medical equipment has the unique distinction of requiring both high initial investments and costly maintenance during its entire useful life. This characteristic does not, however, imply that medical equipment is more costly than other categories, provided that it is managed properly. The foundation of a sound technology management process is the planning and acquisition of equipment, collectively called technology incorporation. This lecture presents a rational, strategic process for technology incorporation based on experience, some successful and many unsuccessful, accumulated in industrialized and developing countries over the last three decades. The planning step is focused on establishing a Technology Incorporation Plan (TIP) using data collected from an audit of existing technology, evaluating needs, impacts, costs, and benefits, and consolidating the information collected for decision making. The acquisition step implements TIP by selecting equipment based on technical, regulatory, financial, and supplier considerations, and procuring it using one of the multiple forms of purchasing or agreements with suppliers. This incorporation process is generic enough to be used, with suitable adaptations, for a wide variety of health organizations with different sizes and acuity levels, ranging from health clinics to community hospitals to major teaching hospitals and even to entire health systems. Such a broadly applicable process is possible because it is based on a conceptual framework composed of in-depth analysis of the basic principles that govern each stage of technology lifecycle. Using this incorporation process, successful TIPs have been created and implemented, thereby contributing to the improvement of healthcare services and limiting the associated expenses.
- Synthetic biology 2013, ScienceDirectSynthetic Biology provides a framework to examine key enabling components in the emerging area of synthetic biology. Chapters contributed by leaders in the field address tools and methodologies developed for engineering biological systems at many levels, including molecular, pathway, network, whole cell, and multi-cell levels. The book highlights exciting practical applications of synthetic biology such as microbial production of biofuels and drugs, artificial cells, synthetic viruses, and artificial photosynthesis. The roles of computers and computational design are discussed, as well as future prospects in the field, including cell-free synthetic biology and engineering synthetic ecosystems. Synthetic biology is the design and construction of new biological entities, such as enzymes, genetic circuits, and cells, or the redesign of existing biological systems. It builds on the advances in molecular, cell, and systems biology and seeks to transform biology in the same way that synthesis transformed chemistry and integrated circuit design transformed computing. The element that distinguishes synthetic biology from traditional molecular and cellular biology is the focus on the design and construction of core components that can be modeled, understood, and tuned to meet specific performance criteria and the assembly of these smaller parts and devices into larger integrated systems that solve specific biotechnology problems. Includes contributions from leaders in the field presents examples of ambitious synthetic biology efforts including creation of artificial cells from scratch, cell-free synthesis of chemicals, fuels, and proteins, engineering of artificial photosynthesis for biofuels production, and creation of unnatural living organisms. Describes the latest state-of-the-art tools developed for low-cost synthesis of ever-increasing sizes of DNA and efficient modification of proteins, pathways, and genomesHighlights key technologies for analyzing biological systems at the genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic levels which are especially valuable in pathway, whole cell, and multi-cell applications. Details mathematical modeling tools and computational tools which can dramatically increase the speed of the design process as well as reduce the cost of development.

- [Beta]-barrel channel proteins as tools in nanotechnology : 2014, Springerβ-barrel outer membrane channel proteins (OMP) have great potential as robust and flexible models or components in nanotechnology. Over the last decade biotechnological techniques allowed to expand the natural characteristics of OMPs by modifying their geometry and properties without affecting the overall protein structure and stability. The present book is oriented towards a broad group of readers including graduate students and advanced researchers. The β-barrel structure serviceability for the nano-material design will be its chief topic giving a general introduction to the field of OMP based nano-component development as well as the state of the art of the involved research. On the example of the E. coli FhuA the transformation of an OMP into a tailored nano-channel to be adapted to a non-biological synthetic (i.e. polymer) environment, rendering it competitive with artificial non-biological nano-pores will be outlined specifically the design of a set of protein nano-channels with tailored geometry (diameter, length), conductance and functionality will be reported as a case study. In order to make this book a valuable source of information for both biotechnologists and other scientists interested in bio-nanotechnology an overview of the different steps involved in the nano-channel protein design and production will be reported. The scientific strategy from concept design, theoretical considerations, genetic engineering and large scale production, to system assembly and biophysical characterization with an overview on technological applications including membrane/polymersome technology, will be described.
