This functional assay was developed for detection of compounds inhibiting Vero 76 cells viability as a secondary screen to the VEEV Inhibition screen.
In this assay, we treated Vero 76 cells with compounds selected as hits in the VEEV Inhibition assay for 72 hours over a 10 point 2-fold dilution series, ranging from 25 uM to 0.05 uM. Following 72 hours of treatment, relative viable cell number was determined using Cell Titer Glo from Promega. Each plate contained 64 replicates of vehicle treated cells which served as negative controls.
Cell Culture: Vero 76 cells obtained from ATCC (CRL-1587) were cultured and maintained in MEM-E (Invitrogen, 10370-088) with 10% Hi-FBS (Invitrogen 16000), 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin/L-glutamine (Invitrogen 10378-024) and 1% HEPES (Invitrogen 15630-080). The cells are maintained at 37C, 5.0% CO2 to 100% confluence being passaged 1:4 every 3-4 days. For cell plating, cells were detached from flask bottom by using Trypsin-EDTA solution and then re-suspended in a growth media. Cells were passaged no more than ten times after being thawed.
Compound Dosing/Plating: Carrier control / compounds were diluted in complete growth medium to prepare a 6X concentrated dosing solution which was dispensed into 384-well black clear-bottom tissue culture treated plates (5 uL volume).
Cell Plating: Twenty-five uL of complete growth medium containing 3000 cells were dispensed per well. Plates were incubated at 37 C, 5% CO2 for 72h prior to endpoint detection.
Endpoint/Detection: At the end of the treatment period, assay plates were removed from the incubator and equilibrated to room temperature for 10 min. Thirty uL of Cell Titer Glo reagent was added and plates were incubated for an additional 10 min in the dark. At the end of the incubation, assay plates were analyzed using a PerkinElmer Envision microplate reader in luminescence mode with an integration time of 0.1 s.
Data Analysis: Sixty-four control wells containing cells treated with DMSO vehicle and were included on each assay plate. Compound data was normalized and reported as % viability which was calculated using the following formula: % viability = 100*(Cmpd Lum-Med background)/(Med Cell Ctrl - Med background). Compounds were considered "Active" (showing toxicity) if they decreased cell viability below 70%. For "Active" compounds, the normalized % viability was plotted against the tested concentrations. The CC50 values were calculated using XLfit formula 205, a 4 parameter Levenburg-Marquardt algorithm with maximum and minimum limits set at 100 and 0, respectively and allowing extrapolation to identify weakly active compounds.
Outcome: Compounds that showed <70% cell viability for at least one concentration were defined as "Active" (toxic) and CC50 values were calculated. If the % viability at all doses was >70%, the compound was defined as "Inactive" (non-toxic).
The following tiered system has been implemented at Southern Research Institute for use with the PubChem Score: Compounds in the primary screen are scored on a scale of 0-40 based on % activity; a score of 40 corresponds to 100% activity. In the confirmatory dose response screen of primary screen hits, active compounds are scored on a scale of 41-80 based on IC50 result while compounds where activity was not confirmed are given the score 0. Confirmatory dose response and secondary screens of purified and/or resynthesized compounds, indicating the highest degree of confidence) are scored on a scale of 81-100 based on IC50 result. Inactive compounds are given the score 0.

A more modern/oriental scent. Has an elegant somewhat sharp..first whiff, an attention getter definitely. Less sweetness, class, class, class. I thought I loved Judith Leiber Amber, the best,which is a warmer "Topaz" classic fall fragrance, but Night can be worn for business functions, personal functions, any time you want to walk by and have people whisper' what is that fragrance". Interesting. Get the parfum, not the edt. Lasts longer. There is no site like Fragrancenet if you like high end scents. Best price, fast delivery.

I have not done any maintenance on my central air conditioning system since I bought my house five years ago. Everything seems to be running fine but is there some sort of maintenance I should be doing regularly?
Every year or two I call out a professional company to check the coolant levels and check for any mechanical defects since I don't have all the gear to do it myself.
Aside from that I just try and keep the area free of debris and anything that could damage the unit. In my case I have a tree off to the side and several branches hang over the unit which I trim back, don't want a branch falling off and spearing through the unit.
Most local HVAC service companies offer an annual service plan where they come out once a year (twice a year for a heat pump), check over everything in the system (indoor and outdoor), clean off the coils, replace the air filters, etc. They will measure the voltage and resistance of various electrical components in the system, as well as measure the temperature of the coils to see if anything is out of whack.
If you have a service contract, there really isn't anything else you need to do for maintenance except make sure the outdoor unit isn't overgrown with grass/leaves/whatever.
Around here, a service contract for a heat pump (2 visits per year) runs $150-$200 per year. I think it's in the sub-$100 range for just an A/C unit, since they don't have to care about both heating and cooling.
I also have a humidifier plumbed into the HVAC system with a moisture pad that has to be replaced annually. Replacing the moisture pad is covered as part of the my service contract (as well as the air filter).
Most of the HVAC companies around here will also give you a small discount on repairs if you have a contract with them (call you a "Preferred Customer").
As far as I know coolant levels are checked if you have a great deterioration in performance.
Yes, you should be doing maintenance on your AC unit, but not just once-a-year maintenance.
Keep the air filters clean, and if you have been lax in keeping the air filters clean, considering opening the upper air handling unit and cleaning the inside coils. There are spray on solvents that will break up the gummed up dust and dirt. Use common sense, turn off the outside circuit breaker first. Also turn off the circuit breaker on the inside air handling unit.
While you are up there, take up a bucket of water. Make sure that your pan doesn't leak or drip by carefully pouring the water into it. There is an internal pan, so the external pan is not tested very often; however, there are many cases where the external pan has failed in some manner, which you only discover after the internal pan's drain line gets clogged.
For the outside unit, you will want to occasionally clean the coils. Find the disconnect and pull it. It will keep the outside unit from turning on while working on it. It is a secondary safety measure as you've already turned off your house's AC circuit breaker. Then you can use a garden hose to spray water through the fins from the inside out. If you cannot manage to get a clear stream of water, you might have to also remove the fan / wire mesh shield.
I typically don't bother having my coolant checked. It doesn't disappear or wear out, it leaks. If it is leaking, you will know soon enough by the inside coil freezing up. There are other reasons the inside coil can freeze up, but if you have sufficient air flow (open vents and unclogged filters) and verify that there's not an electrical problem causing your compressor to turn on without turning on the internal fan, then you can deduce you have a low coolant problem. In that case, you need to get a proper repairman and not let him top off the coolant until he locates the leak and fixes it. It's tempting to let him do otherwise, but you'll just be paying for it again, sooner than you think.

I didn't realize that the exercise used 4 OFers. That helps out the Yankees considerably. I guess you could put McCovey in the OF and Bill Terry at 1b. It all depends on how free you want to be with positions.
The Braves get a whopping 423.5 from Nichols, Spahn, Niekro, Smoltz, and Glavine. The Red Sox get a mere 282.2 from their top 5.
For the Braves, better off taking Smoltz as a reliever and including Maddux. In any case, Maddux has more Braves-WAR than Glavine does.
Now the Braves are close to 500 on pitching.
It looked like they lose quite a bit in the conversion to Fangraphs WAR, as he's using for the exercise.
Ah yes. But as someone above said, using FIP as a retrospective look at value is dumb.
with Glavinesque control and Madduxian poise: "In any case, Maddux has more Braves-WAR than Glavine does."
You will see Matthews at first and Chipper at third, as most have speculated, but that is by no means a stretch.
We're not going to try and slide Barry Bonds in at shortstop.
You will see Matthews at first and Chipper at third, as most have speculated, but that is by no means a stretch.
This should really be reconsidered. Using a FIP-based pitching WAR for guys whose entire careers are over makes zero sense.

Neil Diamond inks long-term contract with Capitol Records
He is one of the world's premier recording artists, a record-breaking concert performer and revered by his peers and the general public as a great songwriter. Now, Neil Diamond has a long-term, historic contract with Capitol Records to illustrate and safeguard his accomplishments.
Diamond has inked a long-term agreement with Capitol Records that unites his complete Columbia, Universal Music and Bang catalogues – encompassing his entire body of work – from his first recordings through present day. The agreement also puts Diamond back under the umbrella of Universal Music where he achieved many hit singles and albums in the 1960s and 70s.
According to Universal Music Group (UMG) Chairman & CEO Lucian Grainge, "There are few moments in my career that make me as proud as having the opportunity to help bring Neil back to the Universal Music family. His remarkable body of work and enduring appeal to fans around the world puts him in very rare company among the greats. We're thrilled that Neil has selected Capitol and Universal Music as his home."
Diamond, 72, is reportedly in the process of writing songs and plans to enter the studio to record a new album later this year. Concurrently, a comprehensive plan for his catalogue is being drawn up by Capitol and Universal Music, in conjunction with Diamond and his management team. Though Diamond isn't currently touring, fans hoping to hear his music in person will be happy to know they'll get the chance this August. That's when singer Peter Byre and the New Zealand International Orchestra will present "Neil Diamond's Hot August Night" on stage.
Diamond still sweet on "Sweet Caroline" (Updated August 2, 2013)
Neil Diamond's live appearances have been his bread and butter in 2013. Or maybe we should say his heart and soul. And ours.
Of course, Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" has forever linked him to the city of Boston, where fans at every Red Sox home game sing the song during the eighth inning. But the song took on even more meaning when the superstar made an unannounced appearance at Fenway Park on April 20, 2013 to serenade the crowd. It was the first game at Fenway since the bombings at the Boston Marathon, and helped in the healing process at stadiums across the Major Leagues.
Of course, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer wasn't done. On July 4 at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., Diamond gave the first live performance of his new single "Freedom Song (They'll Never Take Us Down)." He performed the song from the Lexus Presidents Club behind home plate in the bottom of the third inning of a Nationals' game, and wrote it following the Boston bombings and a visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
To cap off Independence Day, Diamond performed live on the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol as part of "A Capitol Fourth," which was broadcast nationally by PBS. A few weeks later, he again sang "Sweet Caroline" – this time at Major League Baseball's All-Star Game.
About Neil Diamond
Singer, songwriter and grandmaster of pop, Neil Diamond, for much of his storied career, has had his finger on the pulse of what his audiences want, and has delivered time after time, decade after decade. He composed songs more than forty years ago that are still played on pop radio, and his long list of classic tunes continue to be covered by today's bands. Not that Neil Diamond isn't still performing them himself, and with Neil Diamond tickets you can hear the classic hits performed directly by the artist who created them. Songs like "Cherry, Cherry", "Solitary Man," "Kentucky Woman," "Red, Red Wine" and "Sweet Caroline" (a favorite of Boston Red Sox fans), and that's only a few samples from the 1960's.
Neil Leslie Diamond was born in 1941 in Brooklyn, New York, and received his first guitar at age 16. It didn't take him long to start writing songs, but he didn't hit songwriting success until about 10 years later. Still, with all the pop stardom Diamond had in the 1960's, he was only getting warmed up. His 1970's chart-makers include "Shilo," "Solitary Man," "Cracklin' Rosie," and "I'm a Believer," which became a hit two more times when the Monkees and Smashmouth both took a turn. There was also "Song Sung Blue," "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" and "Forever in Blue Jeans."
To date Neil Diamond has recorded more than 40 albums, selling over 115 million records worldwide. At least 56 of his songs have made Billboard's Hot 100 list of the most heard songs. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1984 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.
On August 10, 2012 the musical icon crowned his nearly five-decade career with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It can be found on Vine Street, in front of the landmark Capital Record Building, and was unveiled just a day before he launched a series of concerts at the city's Greek Theater. The septuagenarian also played the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas the following month.
Neil Diamond Announces 2015 North American Tour
Get excited, Diamond Heads! Neil Diamond has announced he'll be "Coming to America" (as well as Canada and Mexico) next year. The "Cracklin' Rosie" singer will be kicking things off at the PPL Center in Allentown, PA, on February 27. From there, it's a run up into Canada and New England. He'll play the Wells…Read more

A Mechanicsville man was killed Monday night, police report, when he tried to walk across a highway in the path of a pickup truck in New Market.
Roland Philip Tucker, 52, died at the scene of the 7:55 p.m. accident, according to the St. Mary's sheriff's office. Tucker was attempting to cross the southbound lanes of Route 5, near an intersection with New Market Turner Road, the sheriff's office reports, and he failed to yield the right of way to the 2011 Ford F-150 truck operated by Paul Downs of California.
Mechanicsville Volunteer Fire Chief John Raley, arriving at the scene, notified other firefighters that the pedestrian was lying in the roadway, according to the fire department's online report. Emergency medical services volunteers determined that the pedestrian had a faint pulse, placed him into an ambulance and initiated CPR efforts.
No other injuries were reported from the accident. Neither alcohol nor other drugs, or the truck's speed, are considered to be factors in the collision, according to the sheriff's office.
The sheriff's office has requested that anyone with information about the accident contact sheriff's Cpl. Brian Connelly at 301-475-4200, ext. 9010.

School board members in Montgomery County are split on whether, in the face of litigation from parents, the school system must prove it is providing an appropriate education for special-education students.
Members of the Montgomery County Board of Education weighed in on Tuesday on a bill in the Maryland General Assembly, sponsored by Karen Montgomery (D-Dist. 14) of Brookville.
Under the bill, if parents are unhappy with their children's placement in public school, they no longer have the burden of proof during due process to show that the school system is not providing an appropriate education. The burden of proof would shift to the school system to prove it is providing an appropriate education.
After a lengthy discussion about the bill, the board did not take an official position. A motion by board member Philip Kauffman (At-large) of Olney to pass the bill with an amendment only received two other votes of support from the eight-member board.
Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, school systems must provide special-education students a free and appropriate education, which are, in some cases, done through Individual Education Plans. It is not outlined in the act who has the burden of proof when that is questioned, leaving it up to states to decide.
The burden of proof currently falls on the school system in only six states, according to a school system memo.
Advocates say the bill will help parents who are unhappy with their children's placement in public school, or their education in general, but who often do not have easy access to documents about their children's education, and are often intimidated by the systems and their attorneys.
Opponents say that switching the burden to the school system is not the right way to solve issues between parents and school systems, and would make litigation more attractive for parents, therefore increasing litigation costs for local school systems.
Julie Reiley of Bethesda said she personally saw the "aggressive tactics" that school system attorneys use when she was working with the school system on solving issues with her child's education.
Reiley said she had problems navigating the process, even though she is an attorney.
"I realized that for other parents, it would be virtually impossible," she said.
Chrisandra Richardson, the school system's director of special education and student services, pointed out to the board that the school system works hard with parents to solve issues in mediation, so few actually reach the point of due process.
A March 8 memo to the school board from Superintendent Joshua P. Starr stated that the bill "will do little to further the culture of collaboration MCPS has so determinedly attempted to develop."
Kauffman said that it is the hardest position he has ever had to take, but he supports the bill with the amendment.
"In fairness, it should be on us to defend the [Individual Education Plan] that we create with our experts," Kauffman said.
Board of Education President Christopher S. Barclay (Dist. 4) of Takoma Park disagreed, saying he opposes the bill because shifting the burden does nothing to solve the current animosity between parents and the school system regarding their children's education.
Board member Rebecca Smondrowski (Dist. 2) of Gaithersburg said she supports the bill and it is relevant, as parents are often denied access to documents they need to make their case.
Starr said the school system has more of an adaptive issue than a technical issue that could be addressed by the bill.
There could be other ways to address any problems the board sees with special-education services, he said.
Richardson pointed out that, of 17,444 students with disabilities enrolled in Montgomery County Public Schools last school year, there were 128 requests for mediation or hearings, and only 7 of those went forward to a "due process hearing."
Smondrowski said that she is more worried about parents who do not litigate — they might be frustrated with the process but give up during mediation because of the cost or the resources they need to proceed.
Dorie Flynn, executive director of the Maryland Association of Nonpublic Special Education Facilities, said she does not believe the bill would cause more parents to litigate. Instead, the school system would have a more conciliatory process with parents, she said.
Everyone will work together if the burden of proof is shifted, she said.
If the school system truly believes it is doing everything it can to provide the most appropriate education for every child, it shouldn't fight the bill, Flynn said.
Montgomery County Public Schools recently faced the burden of proof issue in a case that lasted 11 years, climbing all the way up to the Supreme Court, according to Starr's memo. In that 2005 case, Schaffer v. Weast, the U.S. Supreme Court stated that "Petitioners [the Schaffers] in effect ask this Court to assume that every [Individual Education Plan] is invalid until the school demonstrates that it is not. The Act does not support this conclusion."
And the Act should not do that, Starr wrote.
There are safeguards in place to support families, and it is a mistake to assume the school system does not place students in private placement when appropriate, he wrote. Last year, the school system spent about $36.3 million to send 520 students with disabilities to private placement.
Since Connecticut has placed the burden on its local school systems, the Connecticut State Department of Education has studied the affects of the change and recommended either keeping the burden on the school system or changing state policies so parents have greater access to information and support.
The Connecticut education department also recommended, in its February 2012 report, that free or low-cost resources for eligible parents be available and parents have help filing complaints, given that the percentage of children with disabilities who are poor continues to increase in the state.

While free movement is at the heart of the European project, the merits and impacts of intra-EU mobility have come under significant scrutiny recently amid public anxiety about competition for jobs and exploitation of welfare systems. This report provides a detailed assessment of free movement, motivations for migration, and challenges countries may need to address as intra-EU mobility enters its next phase.
MPI's National Center on Immigrant Integration Policy convened a major public policy research symposium focused on young children of immigrants in the U.S.
MPI has released a major study that describes and analyzes today's immigration enforcement programs, as they have developed and grown in the 25 years since IRCA launched the current enforcement era.
This report, Volume 1 of a three-volume set commissioned by the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation that examines the immigrant population in Arkansas, provides a demographic and socioeconomic profile of Arkansas immigrants and their children, including a description of immigrant workers in the Arkansas economy. The three volumes build upon a previous study of the Arkansas immigrant population that was published in 2007.
The event discussion, which touched on the intersection of race and immigration, focused on the demographics of Black immigrants (both African and Caribbean) in the United States and their children, their educational success, and the implications of the recently released volume's findings for research and public policy.
This interdisciplinary volume examines the health, well-being, school readiness, and academic achievement of children in Black immigrant families (most with parents from Africa and the Caribbean)—a population that has had little academic attention even as it represents an increasing share of the U.S. Black child population.
Across the Atlantic, large-scale migration has brought about unprecedented levels of diversity, transforming communities in fundamental ways — with a resulting immigration backlash and criticism of "multiculturalism." This volume delivers recommendations on what policymakers must do to build and reinforce inclusiveness given the realities on each side of the Atlantic.
How the anti-immigrant political movement and rancorous debates surrounding immigration will impact countries' ability to build strong economies and vibrant, diverse societies is yet to be determined. This discussion focuses on the factors and players that contribute to this environment, an analysis on the current situation in both Europe and the United States, and a discussion on its implications for community cohesion and national identity in European countries and the United States.

Two Wheel Tuesday Cadwell Park's Mountain Jump
Tuesday, March 10, 2009 at 1:22AM
If you are a listener to the RumblestripRadio Show (and we know that you are!), in our interview with Chaz Davies you might have caught us talking about this track when I brought up some of the British Tracks. Truly one of the epic, and dangerous sections of racetrack in the world.
Jack and Jamie give the call in this 2007 BSB race, and you know this is all old hat to them as they don't even notice as Leon Haslam leads Johnny Rea and Leon Camier in some massive air time over the jump.

"While Duke, Earl and Mary Lou are masters of stride piano, the dean of stride pianists is, without a doubt, Willie The Lion Smith... Charles Mingus commented, after hearing Willie demonstrate the finer aspects of stride piano, Most guys need a whole band to swing like that. - Billy Taylor, liner notes
Limited Edition
The "Various Artists" on this album read like the history of jazz piano: Willie "The Lion" Smith, Earl Hines, Duke Ellington, Mary Lou Williams, Billy Taylor and Charles Bell. The occasion was a piano workshop on a Sunday afternoon at the Pittsburgh Jazz Festival in 1965, obviously a time when giants still walked the earth.
The original album contains only ten tunes. This CD reissue contains all 19 performances, newly remixed from the original three-track masters, adding new material from Smith, Williams, Taylor and Bell. The concert is now presented in the order in which it was performed.
Each pianist performs solo or with bassist Larry Gales and drummer Ben Riley. Earl Hines duets with Ellington on an improvised blues and with Taylor on "Sweet Lorraine." The concert closes with a blow-out version of "Rosetta" with Hines, Smith, Williams, Taylor and George Wein sharing two pianos. A one-of-a-kind event.

|Fantastic Piano Jazz
|I am so happy to finally have this concert issued uncut and with fantastic sound. The closest thing to being there! Everyone acquits themselves nicely here but I must single out Billy Taylor and Charles Bell for playing way above their level. They truly sound like they belong in the company they are keeping. Taylor's version of "I'll Remember April" is particularly memorable given the propulsive swing of Larry Gales and Ben Riley behind him. In fact, as a rhythm section, Gales and Riley really astound. They push everyone! Get this disc, it is an important milestone in piano jazz. Where else are you going to hear Earl Hines, Mary Lou Williams, The Duke, and The Lion all play together?
|This has to be the most sheerly entertaining and enjoyable album that I've heard for some time. At the time of recording, so many jazz greats were around that we perhaps took them for granted. But the passage of time has put this into a different perspective. Congratulations, Mosaic, on digging this gem out of the vaults, and for adding so much material not issued on the original LP.

Chisora and Haye brawl in British boxing's night of shameBRITISH heavyweight Dereck Chisora has been arrested by German police at Munich airport following last night's post-fight brawl with countryman David Haye.The incident, after his 12-round defeat on points by WBC champion Vitali Klitschko, brought shame on British boxing as the two heavyweights came to blows.
Cops are still searching for Haye, who was not present at the hotel when they sought to question him this morning.
His manager Adam Booth suffered a gash to his forehead in the ugly confrontation with Chisora in Germany.
As members of both camps and the attending press tried to break up the melee in Munich's Olympiahalle, Chisora could be heard yelling "he glassed me" before screaming at Haye: "I swear to god David, I'm going to f****** shoot you."
Pictures taken at the event appear to show Haye still clutching a bottle of Aloha in a clenched fist as he lands a blow on Chisora, when the fighters first come together.
Video footage of the violent outburst also suggests that Booth's injury is caused by a camera tripod being wielded by his own man.
Police arrived on the scene soon after and confirmed later that an official investigation would be held, though no arrests had been made.

Kylesa is a metal band that was formed in Savannah, Georgia. Their music incorporates experimentalism with sludgy riffs, drop-tuned guitars and elements of psychedelic rock. The group was established in 2001 by the former members of Damad, with the addition of guitar player Laura Pleasants who is from North Carolina. The band has since undergone line up changes; the remaining original members are Phillip Cope and Laura Pleasants. In 2006, the band added two drummers (Carl McGinley of Unpersons, from Savannah, and Jeff Porter). Eric Hernandez (of Capsule, from Miami) joined in 2008 to replace Porter and plays on Static Tensions. The dual drum tracks are often panned strongly to the right and left.

Quadriceps strain is a partial tear of the small fibers of the muscles that make up the quadriceps group. The quadriceps are the large group of muscles in the front of the thigh. They consist of four muscles in each leg that run from the hips to the knees.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
A quadriceps strain can be caused by stretching the quadriceps beyond the amount of tension or stress that they can withstand.
Factors that may increase your chance of a quadriceps strain include:
Quadriceps strain may cause:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, your recent physical activity, and how the injury occurred. Your thighs will be examined for:
Imaging tests evaluate your leg muscles and surrounding structures. They may include:
Muscle strains are graded according to their severity:
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment depends on the severity of the strain. Recovery time ranges depending on the grade of your injury. Treatment steps may include:
Your muscle will need time to heal. Avoid activities that place extra stress on these muscles:
Apply an ice or a cold pack to the area for 15-20 minutes, 4 times a day, for several days after the injury. Do not apply the ice directly to your skin. Wrap the ice or cold pack in a towel.
To manage pain, your doctor may recommend:
Compression can help prevent more swelling. Your doctor may recommend an elastic compression bandage around your thigh. Be careful not to wrap the bandage too tight.
Elevation can also help keep swelling down. Keep your leg higher than your heart as much as possible for the first 24 hours or so. A couple of days of elevation might be recommended for severe strains.
Rehabilitation with a physical therapist may be required.
Use heat only when you are returning to physical activity. Heat may then be used before stretching or getting ready to play sports to help loosen the muscle.
When the acute pain is gone, start gentle stretching as recommended. Stay within pain limits. Hold each stretch for about 10 seconds and repeat six times. Stretch several times a day.
Begin strengthening exercises for your muscles as recommended.
To help reduce your chance of a quadriceps strain:

Make it meaty
Chicken pies: Add 1 cooked, shredded chicken breast to the spinach mixture, then oil 3 sheets of filo per portion and lay them out on top of each other. spoon a few tbsp of the mixture onto one end of each pastry stack. fold over the edges and roll up to make cigar-shaped packages. Brush with oil and cook for 15 mins or until golden and crisp.
- 1 Put the spinach into a large pan. Pour over a couple tbsp water, then cook until just wilted. Tip into a sieve, leave to cool a little, then squeeze out any excess water and roughly chop. Roughly chop the tomatoes and put into a bowl along with the spinach, feta and eggs. Mix well.
- Carefully unroll the filo pastry. Cover with some damp sheets of kitchen paper to stop it drying out. Take a sheet of pastry and brush liberally with some of the sundried tomato oil. Drape oil-side down in a 22cm loosebottomed cake tin so that some of the pastry hangs over the side. Brush oil on another piece of pastry and place in the tin, just a little further round. Keep placing the pastry pieces in the tin until you have roughly three layers, then spoon over the filling. Pull the sides into the middle, scrunch up and make sure the filling is covered. Brush with a little more oil.
- Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Cook the pie for 30 mins until the pastry is crisp and golden brown. Remove from the cake tin, slice into wedges and serve with salad.

Comments, questions and tips
I also took other people's advice and used about 150g feta and around 100g sundried tomatoes. Also added some toasted pine nuts and two cloves of crushed garlic. I was a little confused about how to construct the pie correctly, having not used filo pastry before, but it somehow turned out fine in the end, and even looked similar to the picture! Really tasty filling. Served with new potatoes and a salad.
Taking the comments on board about using more feta and less tomatoes, I used almost a 200g pack of feta and used the rest to sprinkle on an accompanying salad. I had about half a jar of sundried tomatoes in the fridge so used those up. The end result was very good and the pie was easy to make. I think the oil from the tomatoes gives the pie a good depth of flavour.
Would agree with the whole 'more feta, less tomatoes' thing. Also, for someone using filo pastry for the first time, this was definitely not something I'd called 'easy.'
Didn't look like the picture either. Mine looked like something that'd come out of the back of a cow.
Taste really good though. So all's well that ends well, eh?
I made this and thought it was nice eating it hot but it's incredible when cold. This would be perfect for lunch boxes. I doubled the amount of spinach and feta and only added 130g of sun-dried tomatoes with 2 eggs. I forgot to add pine nuts as mentioned in previous comments so will do that next time. I served it with garlic and parsley sauteed potatoes.
Have been meaning to try a greek pie recipe after falling in love with some that were sold on a farmers market nearby. This was so easy and looks and tastes amazing. I omitted the sundried tomatoes - the pie i was hoping to replicate didn't have them and i notice many reviewers feel they are over-powering. It didn't seem to lack anything for not including them. I also added some toasted pine-nuts. Will make again and again. Brilliant for pack-lunches too for something a bit different.
Great flavours but I really think the recipe is wrong. I used almost double the amount of feta and less than half the tomatoes (because it didn't make sense that there was so much sun dried tomato in it, it's such a strong flavour). It was super easy and made a great mid week meal. Also suitable as a veggie dinner party meal.
I made this for New Year's Day lunch as a vegetarian option. One word: lush. I will be making this again as it is so easy and tastes great, plus it looks nice on the table. Thanks to other contributors for adding tips. I took these on board and added pine nuts, reduced tomatoes, and increased the feta, and it worked wonderfully well. I did have to bake it for about 15 minutes longer than suggested, but it was fine. Prepared the night before, it was perfect for warming up at lunchtime. Great recipe!

ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
I'm loving seeing the posts on AN regarding the successful fundraising campaigns for animators.
Years ago we discussed this on AN and how one day it would come to pass. I'm also glad to see the country's lawmakers making things easier for crowfunding to take place. We now have the open internet for people to get their work out bypassing the old distribution and good ol' boy networks and now we have creators raising awesome amounts of money that frees them up to own and control their properties and destinies.
It's like push button magic.
I'm also writing an ebook on crowdfunding and have been interviewing people with successful campaigns. All I can say is if you're ready to leap into the crowdfunding arena you've got lots of help out there. What is an even bigger surprise is that there are dozens and dozens of crowdfunding websites popping up around the world targeting specific countries, languages etc.. I've had many ask me about how to get more artists involved. I'll look them over and post here. It may be that you guys can get funding from foreign sources faster than domestic.
Just look at what AN was like 12 years ago and what Charles was fighting for and now look at it. You can't keep a good artist down.
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
I'm gonna use your post as a screen saver Greg!
These are among the most exciting times I can remember in animation. The boom of the 1990s might compare since artists were making major bucks back then, but there's never been an era like the one we're entering into now. There's a party going on in my spirit every moment of the day thanks to all that's happening!
Imagine what the crowdfunding scene will be like a few years from now. Projects may well be funded into the 10s of millions of dollars from sources all over the planet. The studio system will be rivaled by projects that are financed directly by the people. No more pitching ideas to a stale execs who sit in judgment and decide what goes and what doesn't. A new dawn is rising and will overshadow everything we considered as the norm.
It's already happening!
Projects I've been sitting on cuz there was no hope of ever getting anywhere with the conventional way of doing things via the gatekeepers can finally come to fruition! Now there's a new way and a new hope and a new excitement for the future!
A vast new world of creative freedom and innovation and economic and artistic success! Crowdfunding will change everything we know about everything we've known!
All of this is giving a new meaning to...
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
Here's what else is going on thanks to crowdfunding. I see it happening as I write this. There's an increased demand for animation talent to help with some of these projects. Especially in the area of Flash animation. All of a sudden Flash animators are a hot item here in Burbank and some of it stems from Kickstarter campaigns that are successfully funded. It's making an impact along with lots of new start ups and smaller studios that are expanding.
In addition to giving artists a means for pursuing their independent projects, crowdfunding is becoming a driving force in the economy of animation. And it's still early in the trend my friends!
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
The Revolution will not be televised...
It will be crowdfunded!
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
I'm seeing the direct affect of the success of crowdfunding in many ways.
This past week at my school The Animation Academy in Burbank we had two special guest speakers from the industry at a session. As the discussion progressed it went from showing art and preparing portfolios and reels for getting a job to a new direction in conversation. I was very aware of it. The class listened while myself and our guest professionals talked about what was happening in crowdfunding and we started to get a feeling that looking for a job really wasn't what's happening now. It's becoming a lot more about getting projects together and groups and teams and going for a production budget through a Kickstarter campaign.
Everyone senses that things are different now. Even artists in studio gigs.
I've been working on a project of mine that's getting very close to launch. I've got so much content amassed from years of development I can have a property online and feed it for months on a daily basis and use the Internet exclusively for its distribution knowing that I can get it to the point of having an audience large enough to crowdfund down the line.
This is making a big difference in that I can begin to line up talent to assist in moving it more aggressively forward. With a goal towards a system that can fund it when we're ready to go that route gives the crew a sense of confidence in the ultimate success of the project.
The project's fate is not in the hands of animation executives!
It's in the hands of the people!
Our fan base will make this work if they like what they see and want more.
Not executives but the audience!
The beauty and majesty and potential and logic of the New Animation Age that's emerging is absolutely thrilling!
Everything that's going on is making artists and creators more influential and powerful and self determined with each passing day!
This is the Revolution we've been waiting for all this time brothers and sister!
Make the most of it and Keep Creating!
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
This is true Charles. I had fun this past week with friends from the Greek American community. People whose families and mine have been friends for 80 years or more. They asked me about California and what I did out there and I mentioned you and AN. Well the lights came on then as you know why.
Just look at the animation community now as to what it was like when AN started. I found AN by sheer accident as I had three comic books optioned for film at the time that might have been produced 2D. I wanted to know what was going on in the industry and kept hearing horror stories from former friends at that time. AN grew faster and faster with more people contributing. Financing was a big problem. I knew investors but at the time the artists I would send them to had no sense of administrative procedure. Charles was like the only person who knew how to run a business.
I had mentioned way back then that artists should team up and find alternative sources and that the web would one day be the platform for these funds. We used crowdfunding back in the 90s and little by little it got it's legs and with help from lawmakers, which was a big surprise to us, it's now the fastest growing sector of funding.
Just look at AN's forum. In the old days it was rare to see someone getting a project funded. Now it's like every freakin' day. Not only newbies but seasoned execs are getting funded and doing independent work.
I and others worked hard at this. To see something like this happen. Like Charles is saying it can only get better and it will.
Keep your shirts on, good things coming.
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
Thanks for remembering all that's happened on AN over the years Greg and thanks for continuing to be a staunch moral supporter of the cause.
It's a long way from those early days, when nobody knew which way to turn and people were scrambling to find some footing for all the changes that were heading our way in animation. The emergence of crowdfunding has really come into prominence the past few months this year and has affected the game forever in many very positive and significant ways and it's only the beginning.
I plan on playing later in 2013 as I adapt a project I've been developing for a long time to the Internet and subsequently to a crowdfunding campaign if people like what they see.
This is the future ladies and gents! It's here! The age we've been waiting for and anticipating is happily upon us!
I was thinking about this recently and the idea came to me that perhaps we may see two classes of animation artists as crowdfunding systems grow and mature. One group will be the employee sector that focuses mainly on working for hire within the studio scene. The other group will be artists who are completely independent and who make a living from their own projects and properties. And for all we know, the later could wind up being the more successful sector in general. Time will tell how this will all form up. It'll be great fun to see where it goes.
Crowdfunding is here to stay friends so keep creating!
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
I'm super excited about this new frontier! I too plan on embracing some crowd funding campaigns in 2013. After all this world is suppose to end next week, so in the new world we don't have to do the same things. Right?
Fist high! and C, super excited to see your projects launched!
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
Thank you Brother Bite! It's around a month away. Getting as much completed as I can to build up content. This will be an adventure and a learning experience personally. It's a very unusual out of the ordinary tale. Hope folks like what they see.
Re: ROFLMAO! Crowdfunding & Animation
I bet! I believe it will be well received!!!
I have been moved lately to do my version of little red hen...you know the story? I believe you do. In fact you embody the story.

With fights and death defying leaps, this adrenaline charged sequel takes the groundbreaking parkour action from: "District 13" to thrilling new heights.

I have been in administration for over 25+ years and have tried every binder out there. But I must say that since I found the Avery One-Touch Binder I will never buy anything else. The gap free rings truly do hold up even over numerous openings and closings, their wide front and back panels completely cover any type of divider or index you would use. The 2" binder holds much more than any other binder and it is an ease to open and close, even with one hand. Since our work protocol states that we have to store these binders for many years, even now I can go to these binders and find no ink transfer and they still open and close and hold their form as if they were new. I have truly found my favorite product and of course it is from Avery. There is no reason to look elsewhere for anything you may need in your office. Thank you for creating such innovative products that are always top of the line.

I have bought several of these binders over these past few years and have not had a problem until my son had to put his folders in the binder. The folders come with holes in them so they easily go in the binder, but the binders are smaller than the folders. The folders stick out and the edges get torn up. I have a binder that is probably 10 years old that is wider and longer but it is 3 inches and he needs a 1 or 1 1/2 inch. I like the Avery binders especially the heavy duty, but the placement of the rings on the back cover makes folders and dividers stick out further. Please either make a heavy duty binder that has rings back in the center or make a binder that is wider and taller to fit folders. All the kids in his class have the same problem.
Thanks, Ang

This review is from Heavy Duty View Binders 79795:
Scrapbookers are always looking for colorful, appropriate binders for their efforts, and with help from the Avery Heavy Duty Binders, I oblige! I make padded slip-on covers for notebooks and these binders are the best I've found for the purpose. My returning customers ask for the Avery binders, and, on the rare occasions when I have a different brand in their favorite cover, they ask me to switch the covers so that they can buy their cover with the best binder inside. I have yet to have customer return an Avery Heavy Duty binder, but the other brands I have tried have not been as successful. Thank you for producing a binder that helps me provide a fun and colorful item.
This review is from Heavy Duty EZD ™ View Binders 79193:
I do love AVERY's plastic binders and because they are typically cheaper than FANCY binders, I do usually end up buying them. But couldn't they be sold at a bit lower price? I do love the D-ring binder variety. It makes the product last a bit longer than the regular binder. But all in all, I think whether sold at the regular price OR a promotional price, the price needs to be reduced.
This review is from Heavy Duty EZD View Binders 79802:
I use these binders every day at work, and e use them for O&M manuals that we send to customers. They hold up well, are easy to open and the pages turn easily.
This review is from Heavy Duty View Binders 79795:
As a college student I always used Avery binders and they always outlasted any other binder I ever used. Now as an educator we need to buy things that will last a while due to the fact we usually have to purchase our own products, so I go straight to Avery binders when I am in need and they never disappoint me. Great binders I must say!!!
This review is from Heavy Duty View Binders 79695:
Avery Heavy Duty View Binders is the only binder I use for our customer informational binders. We send out hundreds of them to our customers every year. The "one touch" is wonderful when you are fillling binders with index tabs. It is so easy to open and close with one touch. These binders take a beating at our dealer locations and we are constantly adding material to them. So nothing short of a heavy duty binder will do. It wouldn't reflect well on us if the binder our customer goes through looking at our product is falling apart!
Highly recommend to those who want a binder that closes correctly everytime, can stand a beating, and has crystal clear viewing windows for our photo covers!

When it comes to stores we can pop into, well, whenever and always find something that strikes our fancy, Opening Ceremony is at the very tip-top of the list. The boutique is always brimming with everything from of-the-moment statement pieces to contemporary classics, like the recently unveiled line of bags from its private label.
The new collection is made up of five different styles, all of which are named after the different Opening Ceremony boutiques 'round the globe. There's "OC NY," "OC LA," "OC Ace," "OC Tokyo," and "Pop-Up." The handbags, ranging from $450 to $800, and each come in two colors: a basic hue (khaki, chestnut brown, and black) and a bolder color (red, orange, and petrol blue).
It pretty much goes without saying that the bags are stunning (well, what would you expect?), but we're especially taken with how practical they are. After all, what's an It bag if you can't actually use the thing? The calf and suede leather purses are complete with functional elements, like adjustable shoulder straps, grab handles, and expandable gussets.
The collection will be available at Opening Ceremony stores in New York, Los Angeles, Japan, and London beginning this month. Let the street-style spotting commence!

En español | The heat is on — beyond what's displayed on your thermostat. During cold weather, scammers increasingly pose as utility company employees and other "energy savers" to try to get your money or valuables or sensitive information for identity theft.
Here's how:
The Shutoff Swindle
In the most common utility con, which happens every winter and during peak air-conditioning season, customers get phone calls warning that their service is about to be shut off because of unpaid bills.
The callers claim to be billing representatives from your utility company but are actually crooks looking for a quick payoff. They tell you that to avoid an immediate shutoff, you need to settle an overdue bill by providing them with your credit card number or a prepaid debit card.
In recent weeks, utility customers from Connecticut to Hawaii have been targeted in this longtime scheme. But this winter, some utility impostors have been demanding payment for several months' worth of purported unpaid utility service, not just one, as had been the custom. They can be convincing. They may use "spoofing" software that lets them falsely display the name and phone number of your utility company on your Caller ID. But you should know that most utilities will mail at least one, if not several, past-due notices before terminating service. If you get a cancellation notification (especially by phone), always verify it by dialing the customer service number on your utility bill. Don't give any information to the caller.
The Supplier Switch
Have you been told you qualify for a 15 to 20 percent discount on your utility bill if you'll provide your customer account number? Before accepting the offer, know that the likely switch will simply take you to a different energy supplier. (After all, your current supplier already has your account number.)
In many states, customers can switch their electricity or natural gas suppliers. It's possible to compare rates and terms of state-vetted suppliers on the website of your state Public Utility Commission (PUC). But beware: Some suppliers employ telemarketers and door-to-door salesmen to recruit new customers with promises of lower rates for switching. But after a brief introductory period, rates may suddenly skyrocket — and you find yourself locked in a long-term contract with high cancellation fees. Attorney general offices in several states have sued energy suppliers for such bait-and-switch practices.
In some instances, you may be asked only for your name, address and utility account number — not a credit card. But with that information in hand, the new supplier can switch your power service provider, either with your blessing or by "slamming," the illegal practice of switching customers to another provider without their consent. Your best bet: If you're interested in switching energy suppliers, avoid unsolicited offers and instead compare your options at your state's PUC website.

Luckily, 7-Up turned out this great poster, which features a teriffic full-colour, full-frame photograph of The Great One in his Oilers uniform, a facsimilie autograph, and only minimal advertising. Limited quantity remains in our warehouse!
