A bovine vaccine composition comprising an immunogenically active component having inactivated bovine Trichomonas cells or antigens derived therefrom, in combination with an effective amount of an immunogenically suitable adjuvant; and a veterinary pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or dilent. The vaccine composition is useful to prevent Tritrichomonas (Trichomonas), e.g., T. foetus, infection in bovine, and may also be combined with other vaccine compositions or therapy. A method for preventing Trichomonas infection in bovine is also provided.
The present invention provides a bovine vaccine composition and a method for preventing Trichomonas infections in bovine using such vaccine composition. More particularly, this invention relates to a bovine vaccine composition comprising an immunologically active component, i.e., inactivated bovine Trichomonas cells or antigens derived therefrom in combination with an effective amount of an immunogenically stimulating adjuvant, and veterinary pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents therefor. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Trichomoniasis is a venerally transmitted disease of cattle which may cause infertility, early and late abortions or uterine infections, further resulting in varying degrees of reproductive inefficiency. The causative agent for trichomoniasis is the parasitical protozoan, Tritrichomonas (Trichomonas) e.g., T. foetus. Trichomoniasis is not a new disease but reported incidence has increased due to improved diagnostic procedures. Movement of cattle from infected areas has also expanded the incidence of the disease. Since there are no viable signs of trichomoniasis, it may go undetected until a producer becomes alarmed by such signs as cows returning to heat at the end of the breeding period, calves of varying ages and sizes at weaning, or a strung-out calving season, and, in response to such signs, the producer takes a critical look at his herd's reproductive efficiency. The disease is highly transmissible. One infected bull results in herd infection, since a bull infects 80-90% of the cows he services. This can result in calf crop reductions as high as 40% or even more. Losses due to T. foetus infection are estimated to be in excess of $500 million annually. One hundred cow herd losses can total $16,000-$20,000. The T. foetus is a protozoan that lives in the crypts (wrinkles or folds) on the mucosal surface of the penis and prepuce of the bull. These organisms are transmitted to the cow only by breeding. If the cow is exposed to T. foetus at the time of breeding, these tiny protozoa grow and multiply on the lining of the uterus, causing an inflammation (metritis) which eventually disrupts the placental circulation supplying nutrients to the embryo and results in death of the embryo within the first 30-60 days of pregnancy. Since the embryo is so small, the only outward sign may be a uterine infection with minimal vaginal discharge. Carrier cows do exist, which further complicates T. foetus bovine infection in cows. Typically, these chronically infected cows carry a calf to term while infected with the T. foetus organism. Clean bulls bred to carrier cows can result in the infection of the entire herd. Culling bulls will do no good so long as carrier cows remain in the herd. The infection in the bull is completely without symptoms. Although young bulls may become infected, they are relatively resistant due to the lack of crypts on the mucous lining of the penis and prepuce. These folds in the mucous lining provide the necessary environment for the replication of the T. foetus. As a bull matures (usually at 21/2 to 3 years), these crypts become more pronounced, providing a more suitable environment for the T. foetus. While the Trichomonads grow in these crypts, they do not stimulate the bull's immune system, thus the bull remains infected. Past attempts to immunize or vaccinate cattle against Trichomonas infection have not been very successful for a variety of reasons, including any or all of the following: 1) vaccines developed for infected bulls failed to clear or prevent infection in older bulls; 2) vaccines developed for cows failed to prevent infection in bulls; 3) vaccines developed for cows failed to stimulate local immunity in the cervico-vaginal cavity. It is an object of the present invention to provide an effective bovine vaccine composition having high antigen load and including a very potent adjuvant which will stimulate localized mucosal immunity against Trichomonas foetus when administered systemicly to a subject bovine. It is another object of the present invention to reduce the incidence of abortion among cows susceptible to Trichomonas infection. It is still yet another object of this invention to increase reproductive or breeding efficiency among bovine animals (bulls and cows) susceptible to Trichomonas infection. Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preventing Trichomonas infection in cattle by immunizing these animals with an efficacious vaccine composition. These and other objects will become more apparent in light of the detailed description which follows. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present inventors have unexpectedly discovered that an immunogenically active component can be made and usefully incorporated into a vaccine composition for preventing Trichomonas infections in bovine, i.e., cattle, cows, bulls, heifers. The immunogenically active component has inactivated, e.g., chemically inactivated, bovine Tritrichomonas (Trichomonas) cells or antigens derived therefrom, such as outer membrane extracted antigen. The immunogenically active component is combined with an effective amount of an immunogenically stimulating adjuvant, and a veterinary pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent therefor. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION All literature references, patents and patent applications cited in this specification are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. The present invention provides a vaccine composition comprising an immunogenically active component having inactivated bovine Trichomonas cells, e.g. T. foetus or antigens derived therefrom in combination with an effective amount of an immunogenically stimulating adjuvant; and a veterinary pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent therefor. As used herein, the term "immunogenically active" component refers to the ability of the component described herein to stimulate an immune response, i.e., to cause the production of antibodies and/or cell-mediated response when introduced into a subject (mammal, e.g., bovine). More specifically, the term "immunogenically active" component refers to the ability of this component to stimulate secretory antibody and/or cell-mediated response production in local mucosal regions, e.g., cervico-vaginal cavity, when administered systemically as a vaccine composition according to the present invention. The Trichomonas cells, e.g., T. foetus cells, or antigens derived therefrom which are used to make the immunogenically active component of the vaccine composition can be isolated from the fluids or tissues of mammalian, e.g., bovine (bulls, cows), sources or specimens obtained from animals infected with the Trichomonas protozoan. Such sources or specimens include, for example, vaginal, cervical, uterine, prepuce, scrapings and secretions. In particular, the Trichomonas protozoans can be isolated from the vaginal, cervical and uterine fluids from infected cows which have aborted calves, and also from the preputial sheath from infected bulls. The Trichomonas protozoans can be maintained in the infected bovine, or in suitable nutrient media known in the art, such as, for example, Diamond's modified medium which is prepared by the method described by Diamond, L. S., (1983) Human dwelling protozoa: Entamoeba, Trichomonads and Grandes. In In Vitro Cultivation of Protozoan Parasites, edited by J. B. Jensen, CRC, Boca Raton, pp. 65-109 (not more than 10% serum protein is added to the Diamond medium). Diamond's medium contains the following composition:
Casein Hydrolysate 20.0-50.0*
Yeast Extract 10.0-50.0*
Maltose 5.0
L-Cysteine Hydrochloride
L-Ascorbic Acid 0.2
Dibasic Potassium Phosphate (anhydrous)
Monobasic Potassium Phosphate (anhydrous)
*Batch to batch variation influences growth of the organism. Concentratio
levels vary according to the batch of new material and growth obtained
with the organism.
The routes of administration contemplated by the present invention are parenteral, e.g., subcutaneous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal and intradermal. Preferred routes of administration are subcutaneous and intramuscular. It has been discovered that the vaccine composition of the present invention is useful to prevent Trichonomas infection in bovine that need such protection when administered parenterally, e.g., subcutaneously or intramuscularly, in effective amounts and according to a schedule dictated by the breeding of the bovine. For example, the vaccine composition has been found to be effective in preventing Trichonomas infection when the final dose is administered at least about fourteen (14) days before breeding of the treated animal. In this way, the treated animal has time to build immunity prior to breeding. An effective regimen of treatment includes administering the vaccine composition, for example, in dosage unit form as described above, at least about two times, with each administration separated by about two (2) to about four (4) weeks, i.e., from about fourteen (14) to about thirty (30) days or so. A preferred treatment schedule would include parenteral administration, e.g., subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, at least about 4-6 weeks prior to breeding. Because at least two administrations (injections) are preferred, these administrations (injections) could be given, for example, at about six (6) weeks and about two (2) weeks, respectively, before breeding of the treated animal. This invention provides a multi-vaccine composition comprising the vaccine composition as described above, and at least one vaccine composition directed against a pathogen selected from the group consisting of Leptospira canicola, L. icterohaemorrhagiae, L. pomona, L. hardjo, L. grippotyphosa and Campylobacter fetus, or a combination or any of the foregoing. The working examples set forth below are intended to illustrate the invention without limiting its scope. EXAMPLE 1 Vaccine Preparation A bovine vaginal isolate of T. foetus was obtained from the vaginal fluids of a cow which had been naturally infected with Trichomonas foetus and which had recently aborted a calf. The isolate was cultivated in a modified Diamond's medium at 37.degree. C. in air to a density of 1.times.10.sup.7 protozoans/mL. The modified medium was prepared from the following composition:
Casein Hydrolysate 20.0-50.0
Yeast Extract 10.0-50.0
Maltose 5.0
L-Cysteine Hydrochloride
L-Ascorbic Acid 0.2
Dibasic Potassium Phosphate (anhydrous)
Monobasic Potassium Phosphate (anhydrous)

The Texas Rangers asked about Detroit Tigers right-handed pitcher Rick Porcello on Monday, according to ESPNNewYork.com's Adam Rubin.
The Rangers have already lost one rotation candidate for the start of the season, as Martin Perez is expected to be out until at least May after fracturing his pitching forearm Sunday.
Porcello has been on the trade market this offseason, with left-hander Drew Smyly projected not to make the opening day rotation despite coming off a strong rookie campaign.

- #3 in Best Fort Lauderdale Hotels
- #44 in Best Florida Hotels
Our Take: Located right on Fort Lauderdale's beach, the lemon-yellow (oddly shaped) Atlantic Resort & Spa is all about the views. In fact, it was designed with the optimum vista in mind, down to the gorgeous balconies gracing many of its 124 rooms and suites. Another guest favorite is the kitchenette — stocked with a small fridge, a two-burner stove, and a microwave — that comes with each room. Although you'll pay for all the perks (The Atlantic is one of Fort Lauderdale's pricier hotels), most recent visitors say the experience is worth the splurge. Along with the well-equipped accommodations, recent guests also praise the outdoor pool, but warn that you have to claim your lounge chairs early in the morning. If you don't happen to snag a poolside lounger, guests suggest you hit the beach — after all, the hotel overlooks 23 miles of Florida sand and surf. And when you need a rejuvenating escape from the beach scene, head to The Spa Atlantic for a deep tissue massage or body scrub.

Most of the banner maker in the UK and around the world use a very similar kind of banner printing – solvent printing. Solvent inks are aggressive and eat into the banner material rather than just sitting on the surface of the banner, which gives the inks an excellent level of scratch resistance and UV resistance – the same method is used for printed stickers. The wide format printers that are used for this are fast and relatively inexpensive when compared to a lot of other types of print machinery, especially those used to print cheap flyers, and several are often used at larger companies. The banner material that is used in the majority of the cases is very similar as well. 440 or 500gsm banner material is the standard across the board, and only in cases where price is really a serious issue does anything thinner get used. Music outfits – such as a function band – often use banners as backdrops, and they work great!
So, we have similar machines using similar inks printing onto similar material! This would mean that when we print a banner stand, virtually all of the banners made in the world are going to be the same, right? Well, no. The one area where difference can be made is in the finishing of the banner prints. Most banners are hemmed – the edge is folded over and fixed to create a neat line, and an area of double thickness where the eyelets are punched through, giving more strength. So what different ways are there to do this? The simplest is by using specialist double sided banner tape. This is an excellent solution – it's cheap and easy to do and gives great strength for most standard uses. The other way is by stitching on a special type of sewing machine. This also gives an excellent hem, and because the thread for these machines is much cheaper than rolls and rolls of banner tape, there is money to be saved if you are making enough banners to warrant the purchase of a banner sewing machine. Sewed banners are also better when being used on projecting poles, as a banners made with tape forming the pole pockets can eventually come apart when stretched in this way. You'll probably find that you'll need to be making a LOT of banners to warrant this type of finishing – an e-commerce website from web design huddersfield is definitely one way to start to get these kinds of numbers.
The final way is the heat hem method. Again, a special machine folds the hem and uses heat to partially melt the two folds together. This is probably the strongest and fastest way to do it, but the machines take skill to use and require quite a lot of space so the banner can be laid flat and offered up to the machine on all sides.

The following letter was published in Affectionately, Marcel: The Selected Correspondence of Marcel Duchamp, by Francis M. Naumann and Hector Obalk Ludlon (2000, Ludlon Press, Ghent). It pertains to Katherine Dreier's decision to withdraw pieces from the Museum of Modern Art exhibition Fantastic Art: Dada and Surrealism. I. Marcel Duchamp To Katherine S. Dreier 9 February, 1937, Paris11 Rue Larrey 9th Feb 37
Bombshell all right.It is difficult to picture the whole thing from my peaceful Paris ___ but your statement clarified the situation for the public.Also it will make the public more conscious of the importance of what is going on ____Comparing with our past times —- the Matisse, the cubist and futurist episodes —- it is always good for general recognition to stir the stew which is generally created by such episodes.As for Man Ray, he does not want to do any further move giving unnecessary publicity to the museum.I still think that criticizing for or against is of equal value, meaning that the amount of publicity is proportional to the number of lines written for as well as against.—- The thing criticized always profits by any criticism (at least along the public lines).As long as you made it a clear statement it is perfect___If it becomes a fight there should be a winner____And the win has no more to do with right or wrong ____it is a gamble.All this please keep to yourself and let me know the further developments____I received the 300 francs which I gave to Madeleine___Many thanks.And now get ready for your trip___AffecteusementDee

"Connection is the goal. The quality of that connection, the quality of the information that passes through it, the quality of the relationship that connection permits—none of this is important. That a lot of social networking software explicitly encourages people to make weak, superficial connections with each other (as Malcolm Gladwell has recently argued1), and that this might not be an entirely positive thing, seem to never have occurred to him…[Zuckerburg] is, to say the least, dispassionate about the philosophical questions concerning privacy—and sociality itself—raised by his ingenious program. Watching him interviewed I found myself waiting for the verbal wit, the controlled and articulate sarcasm of that famous Zuckerberg kid—then remembered that was only Sorkin. The real Zuckerberg is much more like his website, on each page of which, once upon a time (2004), he emblazoned the legend: A Mark Zuckerberg Production. Controlled but dull, bright and clean but uniformly plain, nonideological, affectless…When a human being becomes a set of data on a website like Facebook, he or she is reduced. Everything shrinks. Individual character. Friendships. Language. Sensibility. In a way it's a transcendent experience: we lose our bodies, our messy feelings, our desires, our fears. It reminds me that those of us who turn in disgust from what we consider an overinflated liberal-bourgeois sense of self should be careful what we wish for: our denuded networked selves don't look more free, they just look more owned."
By Julianna Baggott
Then the big illegal question was asked, point blank, and, oddly enough, it was during a meeting with the entire search committee—six or so professors. It was put to me like this: "With juggling the demands of your writing and your very busy family life, how do you intend to do this job?"
I think I paused and looked around the room, waiting for someone to throw a yellow flag, call the foul, and restart the question back at the line of scrimmage.
Everyone looked at me patiently, as if to say, "Well?"
And so I answered the question. It's a blur. I don't recall what I said, frankly. I might have gone on a short spiel about how my husband is a stay-at-home dad and that our household is actually weirdly retro—a 1950s household where the gender roles are simply reversed. But if I did, I hate myself for it. Answering a question that the search committee would never have asked my husband, if roles had truly been reversed, undermines the positive steps women have made in the workplace.
I might have said that I've obviously proven that I can work in academe, continue to publish (in fact, outpublish everyone in that room; that would have been the frustrated subtext), and manage a household with four kids in it.
I might have simply said something cryptic, vaguely Buddhist, "I have abundant energy, and it's easier to let the horses go than to hold them back."
Truth is, I've got an arsenal of answers to that question. It comes up in every single media interview I do. While my male literary counterparts with kids in the home are asked about their work and process, I'm asked again and again one question: How do you do it?
Honestly, I don't mind talking about it. It's an important subject, and for those of you who are swinging families and work, my answer is simple: I do it messily, imperfectly, sometimes wearily. But I was compelled to have a writing career and have kids at the same time. If I'd sacrificed writing for the kids, I'd resent the kids. If I'd sacrificed the kids for writing, I'd resent the writing. To support both of those endeavors and because I'm dedicated to teaching the craft, I've found a home in academe. To avoid bitterness, I bully on with all of it.
But regardless of the makeup of my family, I work hard and have a proven track record. I love the work, and I love the kids.
And, truth be told, I probably answered the illegal question with a bit of attitude. In retrospect, I wish I'd had more attitude and said something like, "You know people ask me all the time how I manage to get so much done. Sometimes I feel like answering back: How do you manage to get so very little done?"
The person who asked the illegal question? Maybe you're imagining some older professor who holds firm to a 1950s mentality.
It was a woman, almost exactly my age. She is married and has no children. (Why do women do this to each other again? I forget.)

This year, there are three female Academy Award Nominees for Best Writing.
For Best Adapted Screenplay:
Winter's Bone- Adapted for the screen by Debra Granik & Anne Rosellini
For Best Original Screenplay
The Kid's are All Right-Written by Lisa Cholodenko (& Stuart Blumberg)
While we certainly celebrate these exceptional female screenwriters, that's three (3) three out of 22 screenwriting nominees. There have got to be more excellent scripts out there by women. Thankfully two of this website's hostesses will be hittin' the biz real soon.
The Academy Awards air this Sunday, the 27th at 8pm on ABC.
He'll be cross if he sees I have been crying. They don't like you to cry. He doesn't cry. I wish to God I could make him cry. I wish I could make him cry and tread the floor and feel his heart heavy and big and festering in him. I wish I could hurt him like hell.
He doesn't wish that about me. I don't think he even knows how he makes me feel. I wish he could know, without my telling him. They don't like you to tell them they've made you cry. They don't like you to tell them you're unhappy because of them. If you do, they think you're possessive and exacting. And then they hate you. They hate you whenever you say anything you really think. You always have to keep playing little games. Oh, I thought we didn't have to; I thought this was so big I could say whatever I meant. I guess you can't, ever. I guess there isn't ever anything big enough for that.

-Submitted by SB
It's been assumed I'm soft or irrelevant
Cause I refuse to down play my intelligence
But in a room of thugs and rap veterans
Why am I the only one
Who's acting like a gentleman
Good form bad taste
Pity what a waste
All that style, not a thing to say
Looks to me like
A little of your true school
Is at the shallow end of the typing pool
All cloak, no dagger
Just smoke and swagger
I hope that your battery's charged
Cause I found this here ladder
Now your ceilings don't matter
Check me out,
Now I got glass floors - Dessa "The Bullpen" - A Badly Broken Code
There was a roar, and a coldness –
I think my husband was with me.
What was my husband's name?
My husband's name? Do you know it?
How strange, I don't remember.
It was horrible to see his face
when I died. His eyes were
two black birds
and they flew to me.
I said: no – stay where you are –
he needs you in order to see!
When I got through the cold
they made me swim in a river
and I forgot his name.
I forgot all the names.
I know his name starts with my mouth
shaped like a ball of twine –
Oar – Oar.
I forget.
They took me to a tiny boat.
I only just fit inside.
I looked at the oars
and I wanted to cry.
I tried to cry but I just drooled a little.
I'll try now.
(She tries to cry but finds that she can't.)
What happiness it would be to cry.

Speaking of Lady Writers, Lady Journalists face a different set of obstacles when attempting to pursue their passion for writing. The Huffington Post and The New York Times co-published this piece by ProPublica writer Kim Baker in the aftermath of the attacks on Lara Logan while she was covering the protests in Egypt:
"The CBS correspondent Lara Logan has broken that code of silence. She has covered some of the most dangerous stories in the world, and done a lot of brave things in her career. But her decision to go public earlier this week with her attack by a mob in Tahrir Square in Cairo was by far the bravest. Hospitalized for days, she is still recuperating from the attack, described by CBS as a brutal and sustained sexual assault and beating.
Several commentators have suggested that Ms. Logan was somehow at fault: because she's pretty; because she decided to go into the crowd; because she's a war junkie. This wasn't her fault. It was the mob's fault. This attack also had nothing to do with Islam. Sexual violence has always been a tool of war. Female reporters sometimes are just convenient"

10 Female Journalists Who've Risked Everything to Stay on a Story
EW writer Karen Valby talks about the female characters (some the product of female authors) that are tickling the public's fancy these days:
"I think one of the things that I love most about the Hunger Games series–Suzanne Collins' riveting dystopian trilogy that everyone seems to have either read and loved or is currently reading and loving–is that it stars a girl. Not just any girl, mind you. It stars Katniss Everdeen–as resilient and competent and scrappy and flawed as any hero in pop culture that I can remember. She's 16 years old. She's not silly nor love struck nor a hand-wringer when it comes to boys or her appearance. She is a fighter, without ever seeming cartoonish." Check out the rest here.
"If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it I'm an extraordinary machine"
-From "Extraordinary Machine" by Fiona Apple

1. Place the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Dip the eggplant slices in the flour, then in the eggs (letting any excess drip off), and finally in the bread crumbs, pressing gently to help them adhere.
2. Heat half the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook half the eggplant until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer to a paper towel–lined plate. Wipe out the skillet and repeat with the remaining oil and eggplant. Sprinkle the hot eggplant with ½ teaspoon salt.
3. Layer the eggplant, lettuce, tomatoes, basil, and goat cheese to form 4 "sandwiches," with the eggplant on the top and bottom of each stack.

December 05, 2011, 4:06 PM — When developers want to level a stand of virgin forest, the call the environmentalists who protest the destruction "tree huggers."
Some did it because they just liked trees. Most were part of '70s and '80s environmental movements, which had a complex political agenda that's not always clear even yet.
In the Noughty Outies the relevant term is "server hugger," coined by pithy Forrester analyst James Staten as a way to ding executives who resist cloud computing or virtualization because they just don't trust a server they can't see.
There have always been good reasons to prefer a server you can put your hands on if necessary; virtual servers tended to multiply and eat up all the available resources because, when they burst into data centers with irresistible ROI, they were almost invisible once they were launched. Especially once the same user launched a new version of the same server every single day for a couple of months without ever killing one.
Sprawl-controlling lifecycle management has come a long way since then, as have virtual-server and cloud-resource monitoring software.
Neither category as complete as it should be, and none of the products are as capable as the physical-server versions of the same products.
Cloud and virtual servers aren't invisible anymore, however.
Staten and other virtualization- and cloud-computing analysts didn't use pejoratives back then to describe IT or business managers who resisted virtualization. Their reasons were too good.
Most of them now are more worried that if a server disappears they'll have a hard time justifying their jobs.
Server huggers "have significant concerns about their ongoing value to the company if they don't run [IT systems] themselves," Staten told Computerworld.
The situation is more complicated than the business-unit manager who thinks IT is gypping his or her department by taking away the physical servers and replacing them with an equivalent amount of processing power, allocated via cloud-based infrastructure, from the data center.
With nothing to lay hands on, the only evidence that something worthwhile is being provided is the work employees do.
A lot of managers would rather measure their importance against the amount of space their departments take up, or their headcount or the number of servers they need, rather than the importance or quality of the work their departments produce.
Quality is so much harder to quantify than quantity.
Within IT, at least, there is a legitimate question of how cloud computing, specifically, changes IT job descriptions.

Im chirping away on other people's threads about my query and I think its going to get lost, so I thought I would start a separate one.
One of my bunnies went to the emergency vet last weekend and was recommend 0.6 mls of Baytril. Went back to my own vet today and they have now recommended 2.5 mls.
She has mentioned that she remembers that Bristol vet hosp had said that too often vets do not give a high enough dose of Baytril, which is why its not always effective. Bristol had previously treated another one of my incurably ill bunnies with 3 mls of Baytril that they said would not cure, but would hold the infection. This gave this particular bunny 2.5 additional years.
We were trying to work out this morning what the recommended dose per kilo is and I dont know. I know the dose for metacam. I guess one has to think about why the Baytril is being given also, but there has to be a recommended dose. Looking at some other threads, snuffly bunnies are being given varying doses of Baytril and, even allowing for differing weights of bunnies, there is a considerable disparity in the doses.
Does anyone know what the recommended dose is?

Archived Story
No need for secrecyPublished 8:54pm Wednesday, February 15, 2012
Sometimes best-kept secrets should be released.
The tourism bureau Discover Kalamazoo started a promotional campaign two years ago aptly named "269 Cool Things to Do" to promote tourism in the 269 zip code.
Of the 269 places and events submitted by the public — they are not numbered by rank — only a paltry three submissions came from Niles (Fort St. Joseph Museum, Veni's Sweet Shop and Fernwood Nature Preserve) for the most recently released list. Two were from Buchanan (Pears Mill and RedBud MX Track). Pokagon even got a shout-out with The Old Rugged Cross Memorial Garden, but Edwardsburg and Cassopolis were omitted.
Dowagiac was well-represented: Wood Fire Italian Trattoria, the Museum at Southwestern Michigan College, Five Mile Drive-In Theater, Caruso's Candy Kitchen, Wicks Apple House and the Kee-Boon-Mein-Kaa Pow Wow.
While these are great examples of things to do and places to see in this corner of the state, we believe there are many more.
Our staff has compiled a list of our favorite best-kept secrets; maybe some of them are yours as well. If not, check them out. Our area has a lot to offer.
• Lunker's in Edwardsburg — see more taxidermy than you ever thought possible in one place. Dare yourself to try the ostrich, elk or alligator at its Angler's Inn Restaurant.
• Speaking of fish, visit Dowagiac's Heddon National Museum of fishing lures, which were invented in Dowagiac. Toss a cold one back at the downtown's Wounded Minnow, a sports bar with a fishing theme.
• Go off the beaten path to the lake community of Cassopolis. Stop in the Pioneer Log Cabin on Stone Lake, adjacent to the newly restored Sinclair gas station.
• Dowagiac Woods on Frost Street in Pokagon Township features the best spring wildflowers in Michigan.
• Rudolphi Wildlife Refuge on Dailey Road near SMC's Dowagiac campus is part of a system of hiking trails that connect the college, Riverside Cemetery and the middle school. In that part of Dowagiac there are 300 acres of public open space preserved and managed.
• Did you know Kitty Litter was invented by a Cassopolis resident? Check out the Edward Lowe Foundation's museum on Decatur Road, Cassopolis, to learn the story of the tycoon who brought cats inside by creating Kitty Litter.
• Underground Railroad sites around Vandalia — a state historical marker on M-60 calls attention to the junction of two main lines, the Illinois from St. Louis and the Quaker from the Ohio River, which merged and went on into Canada. Cass County was the site of the Kentucky slave raid of 1847, which is recalled in a colorful mural in downtown Cassopolis. While in the area, swing by the monument on M-60 in Penn Township that commemorates space pioneer Capt. Iven Carl Kincheloe.
• Bald Hill in Newberg Township — at 1,140 feet, it is the highest point in southwest Michigan.
• Want to see a giant Buddha statue? The Wat Lao Buddha is located next to the Vandalia Buddhist Temple.
• Michiana Healing Arts Center/Kar Club, Niles — Get your zen on while you look at fancy cars. It makes perfect sense.
• Rumor Has It, Niles — Matt Shaver owns more than 60,000 records.
• Union Coffee House, Buchanan — This renovated cafe in a historic downtown building offers homemade sandwiches and coffee drinks using local ingredients when possible. It also offers great live acoustic music.
• Deer Forest Fun Park, Coloma — a bit of a trek from this area, but well worth it to see the ear-to-ear grins on your children's faces when they pet live deer and farm animals.
• Swiss Valley Ski and Snowboard Area, Jones — Great for first-time skiiers and snowboarders.
To submit your favorite places to the "269" list, visit "269 Cool Things To Do (In Area Code 269)" on Facebook.

Digimon is on Netflix!!
A Monster in Paris is on Netflix!
Paris,1910. Emile, a shy movie projectionist, and Raoul, a colorful inventor, find themselves embarked on the hunt for a monster terrorizing citizens. They join forces with Lucille, the big-hearted star of the Rare Bird cabaret, an eccentric scientist and his irascible monkey to save the monster, who turns out to be an oversized but harmless flea, from the city's ruthlessly ambitious police chief
I saw the original one last year that was all in French, but the English voice actors did a really great job in the one Netflix has up, soundtrack and all. The music is down right phenomenal (Sean Lennon is the singing voice of the monster). Its a really cute movie, and i love all the characters, more specifically Raul. Give it a go this weekend, its a fun movie.
The Munsters & Goosebumps are on Netflix instant! I am the happiest and kinda scared person all at the same time! Because, not gonna lie, Goosebumps creeped me the fuck out as a kid. I'm stoked.
Laura Croft: Tomb Raider is on Netflix Instant play! This goes right along with The Mummy as the two franchises i watch on the weekends while drawing and finishing up work, so i'm excited.
Stop everything. Michel Ocelot's Tales of the Night is on Netflix instant play! Keep in mind, its not your Disney-esque type of stories.
On a dark French night, a boy, a girl, and an avuncular man tell each other stories, looking through books and pulling up images from various cultures around the world. They discuss what kind of stories they want to act out. They want adventure, princes and princesses, love, death, and noble lessons learned, sometimes in straightforward ways, other times through twisty irony. Other times, the storytellers are motivated by a location, a hairstyle or a costume that catches their attention. Maybe they want an animal companion or a certain kind of music. They imagine themselves across cultures, across races, in very different characters and stories, smoothly walking miles in shoes unlike their own.They're in complete control of the worlds they create. And what beautiful worlds they are. Ocelot animates it all through simple silhouette figures, the puppet-like people playing out their actions before vivid colors and kaleidoscopic backdrops that form lush jungles, shiny gold cities, dank dungeons and dark woods. The seemingly simple style of animation is deceptively intricate, effortlessly creating whole universes out of big, bold uses of color and geometrical shapes carefully arranged within the frame. It's a style of animation that's been around since the earliest days of cinema.
I can't exactly lock down my feels on this show, i'm 3 episodes in and i'm still interested. It's a twins peak, american horror story-esque maybe type of feel? Shit is weird, but i'm going to finish this entire first season. I'm a big Eli Roth fan, i enjoy me some horror gore.

For the Lazarus United Church of Christ just south of York County in Lineboro, Maryland, a helping hand came in the form of some hand bells.
Fire destroyed their church last week. Music Director Rita Becker figured there were too many other losses to even worry about continuing the choir over the near term.
But the folks at the Steltz Church of New Freedom, York County offered to lend them their bells. As a result, they were able to make their performance Monday night at the Lutheran Retirement Village in Hanover.
"And when all this came about I just felt like we needed some joy, so we just decided were going to come...and snow and all we made it, fog, whatever we are here," Becker said.
Residents of the retirement home took up a collection for the church.
"I had people knocking on my door that weren't able to come up...because we spread the word," said resident Rosalie Hobbs. "We got on the phone and knocked on doors and they gave me donations."
"These folks who suffered this loss are part of our family," said resident Hank Langknecht. "It was an automatic response. They're going to do something for us but we have to reach out also."

Reading in SVA's MFA program of Interaction Design
SVA posted a list of their reading recommendations for interaction design. Funny that I've read a huge chunk of these — and I try to stay as far away from the front end as possible. Here's my one sentence review of what I've read.
- The Design of Everyday Things, Donald Norman — Good at the time but nothing really stuck with me.
- Envisioning Information, Edward R. Tufte. — Great, made me both want to read all of his other books as well as find ways to make graphs like this for every little thing around me.
- Powers of Ten, Philip Morrison, Phylis Morrison and the office of Charles and Ray Eames — I remember the first time I saw this in an astronomy class and the professor stopped right as it was going into the hand and everyone demanded that she continue.
- The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, Edward Tufte — Great, but this got me going down the road of thinking that I could explain more math graphically then people understand, and got me down the path of madness that is benchcoach.com
- Getting Started with Arduino (Make: Projects), Massimo Banzi — Oh lovely, blinky LED arduinos.
- Physical Computing: Sensing and Controlling the Physical World with Computers, Tom Igoe, Dan O'Sullivan — I read this mostly in Barnes and Noble because I had much higher expectations of what it could have been than what it turned out to be.
- Comics and Sequential Art, Will Eisner — This made me want to practice sketching more.
- Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art, Scott McCloud — This book is shockingly good, so good that when one person made fun of me for reading it — you need a book for understand comics interrobang — I immediately felt less sympathy for her troubles in life, what with her being an ignorant philistine and all.
- The Architecture of Happiness, Alain De Botton — It is completely unacceptable that he didn't mention Christopher Alexander, and frankly after the wit and charm of "How Proust Can Change Your Life" and even "The Consolations of Philosophers" this sort of clever emptiness that leaves out huge swathes of germane territory is saddening.
- Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Thing, William McDonough and Michael Braungart — Reading this is probably the closest thing I could imagine to being exposed to Buckmister Fuller for the first time, like seeing a Dymaxion car driving around in 1930 when people still remember horse and buggies. Also, the book is totally plastic.

A man killed in a gruesome accident Friday evening has been identified as a Dana Point resident.
A car driven by Craig Engstrom fell from the Alicia Parkway bridge Friday evening just before 7 p.m., killing him, said Lt. Gary Strachan with the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
According to Strachan, Engstrom lost control, hit the center divider and drove off the bridge between lanes; his Lexus landed upside-down on the train tracks.
No other people or vehicles were involved in the accident, authorities said.
Craig Engstrom was 52. He died at the scene.
Strachan said that trains were stopped in both directions. There was no train involved in the incident.
Mission Viejo student Anastasia Bolton and Danny Akins were killed under the same bridge in Sept. 2010 after being struck by a train.

Bruce Arians has been pleased with the progress of the Arizona Cardinals, but there is one area where he'd like to see improvement.
According to azcentral.com, Arians wants the team to be more fit. The article states that Arians thought some players labored through practice, which is not what any coach wants to see. Football is a physically demanding sport, and if the team is laboring through practices, the games will be extremely tough.
However, there is good news for the team. Quarterbacks coach Freddie Kitchens visited nine days after undergoing surgery to fix his aorta, which is a good sign. Kitchens could have died from his injury, but he'll probably be coaching in training camp.
If all goes according to plan, Kitchens will be coaching a fit group of quarterbacks.

Gloria Estefan Climbs Into Window Of Suite Next Door During Miami Dolphins Game
Singer Gloria Estefan made a daring climb out a window after getting locked into a stadium suite during a Miami Dolphins game.
The musician was watching the game against the New York Jets on Sunday from her suite at Sun Life Stadium and was set to introduce Latin singer Enrique Iglesias during the halftime show.
But Estefan was locked inside. A locksmith, security officers and firefighters tried unsuccessfully to unlock her door. So Estefan took matters into her own hands.
WPLG-TV reports that Estefan kicked off her Dolphin green Yves Saint-Laurent pumps and climbed out the window into the suite next door. She ran out the door and across the field and made it onstage just in time.

This eye-catching design from Kichler lighting features a an adjustable balance arm and a white linen drum shade.
From Kichler, this contemporary table lamp from the Cantilever Collection features a thin, sweeping arm supported by a brushed nickel finish pedestal. Fully adjustable up/down and side to side for outstanding versatility.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
Our new sofa table is much larger than our old one, so we needed a table lamp that would really use up the space, yet give us lighting close to the seats. This lamp is perfect for that. It has clean lines, and a handy switch at the base so you don't need to hunt for the switch under the lamp shade. The styrofoam packaging really is awful. It falls apart into litte tiny pieces so you'll want to unpack it outside... Setting it up was very easy. Loving the new lamp!
This lamp is far larger than a normal "reading" lamp. I didn't pay attention to the dimensions and it is simply too big to use as a bed-side lamp, which was my intention. Pay attention to the measurements.
But the most problematic thing about this lamp was the packaging. This is made in China and it had the most ridiculous styrofoam I have ever seen. The lamp was packed tightly, but when you pulled on the styrofoam, it just came apart in your hands. It was difficult to get the lamp out of the box because the whole thing just shredded in my hands. I ended up with little electrostatic pieces of foam all over. It was ridiculous. I think the U.S. manufacturer has an obligation to make sure their factories in China are using appropriate material. I kept thinking about various toxins that were causing the foam to split apart.
Our associates are standing by to assist you.

Review: Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout (Bottle)
By Niko I (FF)
This beer had become a bit of a legend for me as it was one of the first reputable stouts I heard about when I first became interested with craft beer. Thus the expectations were huge. Great Divide opened up in Denver in 1994 and helped spark Colorado to where it sits now as one of the best states for beer in the country. They actually don't export to Wisconsin so I picked up one of these bad boys in San Diego.
Yeti pours jet black as expected and gives way to a fierce roasted nut and coffee aroma. Like a silky sweet gift from heaven, the beer glides across your mouth bombarding each taste bud with bold notes of espresso, oak, vanilla, toffee, charred nut, and dark chocolate. Stouts don't get much richer than this. The only complaint I could possibly make is that the dark roasted hops could use a touch more vanilla to balance them out but really this beer is fricken awesome.
Niko I (FF) Score = 9.75/10
Aleks I (GS) Score = 9.5/10

Anglophiles unite: 'Britain on View,' now more than ever (video)
Maybe it has something to do with a little sporting event scheduled for this summer, but it seems that Great Britain is enjoying its moment in the sun. Whether it's ads like these from VisitBritain popping up in major metropolitan areas, or renewed interest in all things British (from Britishisms to Burberry, to the BBC), lately, it feels like all eyes are on London — or the UK as a whole, for that matter.
So, what should you do? Embrace it! And enjoy this look back at the cars, the fashion — and most of all, the people — that have made Britain so great.
Editor's note: Maria Dias is an Anglophile and managing editor of this blog. She recently returned from a (too short!) trip to London and cannot wait to make another visit. Until then she promises to keep calm and carry on… while staring at the 'Great' ads (adverts?) on the train she takes to NY each day.

Back to My Roots
After my grandparents came to America, they changed our name. Decades later, I changed it back—and rediscovered a lost history.
I took a sabbatical at the East-West Center in Honolulu, and the office of Lt. Gov. Benjamin Cayetano was helpful in walking me through the paperwork. Most Americans are immigrants, of course, but it felt somehow suitable to go back to my Polish roots in the Hawaiian melting pot. Fannie, the Chinese woman in the East-West Center in charge of aloha (that's her real job description), organized a quasi-Chinese ceremony—although we substituted bursting balloons for the more traditional, but much louder, firecrackers.
I changed my name, not so much because I feel Polish (I don't speak a word) but because I don't feel German (and I certainly don't feel like a quail, which is how Wachtel translates). Somehow it feels right. The 19th-century Scottish philosopher Thomas Carlyle recognized that a name can shape a life, reflecting, "what mystic influence does it not send inwards, even to the centre."
Almost as cosmic proof that I chose rightly, odd and pleasant things began to occur. Strangers see my complicated name in a publication and write to me, asking if, just possibly, we might be related. A newly found cousin in Montreal, Ari Sochaczewski, invited me to his son's bar mitzvah. I told a friend in Basel, Switzerland, about the name change, and she explained that she had a friend, Simon Sochaczewski, also in Basel, with a similar name. We couldn't possibly be related, I thought, but she spelled his name and it had the same odd concurrence of Slavic consonants. I called him, learned about his service in the Résistance in France. He mentioned a relative who had moved to Brooklyn. "I'm from Brooklyn!" I said, and immediately called Aunt Syd. "Sure, Jack Sachs," she remembered, explaining that his branch of the family had Anglicized the name rather than changing it completely, as ours had done. I called Simon back and we figured out that we are second cousins, I think (I'm not very good at figuring out these family trees). Right here in Switzerland.
When I'd first decided to make the name change, back in 1992, I called my aunt, who started all this trouble by wanting to go to school nearly a century ago. And that's when I found out that more than one name had been changed.
She calls herself Syd, and I asked her why. "My name was Sadie," she explained, "but I never liked that name so I changed it to Syd."
"But your name isn't Sadie," I said. "It's Sarah. Says so right here on the immigration documents they filled out when you got off the boat at Ellis Island. 'Sarah. Four years old. Nationality: Russia. Race: Jewish. Final destination: Brooklyn.' It says here you were 'illiterate.' "
"Oh my," my then-80-something aunt replied. "If I had known that I never would have changed my name. I rather like the name Sarah, don't you?"
Prelude and Fugue
There are men who leave you for another woman, and there are men who leave you for a man. Then there are those who dump you for God.

I should be reading about the origins of European agriculture. But I'm not, bwa ha ha!
I bring you foodpr0nz instead.
I'm not a big soup fan. It's still pretty cold in Eugene though, and since we keep our thermostat at OFF, the apartment is chilly. I wanted something warm. Since I had everything I needed except the corn and red bell pepper, I figured it was a good day to make the Thai Coconut Corn Stew from Eat Drink & Be Vegan.
The soup was surprisingly easy to make, most of the time spent making this was prep (cutting and measuring out veggies for the most part). I don't have an immersion blender, so instead of blending everything in the pot, I let it cool for a bit and then put it in my regular blender, stopping to let them steam out every once in a while.
The soup tastes EXCELLENT. It's sweet from the corn and coconut milk and red bell pepper, but the garlic and spices and lemongrass give it a spicy kick. Very creamy, with nice chunks of corn and somewhat crunchy bell pepper. The cilantro (I love it) finishes it perfectly. Another winner from Dreena Burton.
I guess I should scamper off to finish reading before lecture, since afterwards I'm going to a 'Make a Valentine for Planet Earth!' event. :3
Unrelated - big props to the protestors in Berkeley on Tuesday. Peace everywhere for all animals, nonhuman and human. Good luck tomorrow!
