jingerBread - I lost your initial question regarding readers, and am not really answering it, but I assume you mean a reader as purchased in a pharmacy that is not responding to a doctor's prescription. That was an easy one.... Someone stated he or she didn't understand what you are seeking.

Questions and Answers
User Reviews
These Khombu boots maintain warmth without making you sweat, you can walk on snow and mountains, and stay dry inside. It is a very good looking boot and does not look too bulky, it looks like a nice dress boot. The fit is a little bigger and wide which gives you extra room, but is not tight on your feet. Also, it gives you opportunity to wear double socks if needed. The price is great, they are less than UGGS but still a great product. The side has zipper provides an easy on and off, I just wish they made them for kids."
This is a great boot with style enough to wear while working as a car service driver. These Khombu snow boots do run big so I needed a size 10 instead of my usual 10½ or 11.

Publisher's Description
Writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright helps us see the great sweep of this letter. Romans has long been viewed as the book above all in which Paul puts forth the basic doctrines of the faith, and the picture of God's life for us. It is the classic setting-out of the Gospel.
In this series, Tom Wright has undertaken a tremendous task: to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament and to include in them his own translation of the entire text. Each short passage is followed by a highly readable discussion, with background information, useful explanations and suggestions, and thoughts as to how the text can be relevant to our lives today. A glossary is included at the back of each book. The series is suitable for group study, personal use, or daily devotions.

See my 2013 review of Palm Court, Davenport Hotel. The opposite great experience this year. Made same type of reservation and mentioned Wife's BD. Great service, very excellent appetizer, a great beet salad. Nice apple and olive salad. Salmon was nicely prepared and fresh. Mahi mahi was excellent and the bottle od Mt Dome sparkling was in the tradition of Michael.
Milfords is a fine place for dinner and we will be back more often.

As the flagship model of Lexus, the LS 400 has been one of the most reliable vehicles ever built. With its strong V8 engine and rear-wheel-drive, the LS 400 achieved the highest rankings for vehicle dependability in Consumer Reports. Its development through the years gave it the top ranking in J.D. Power and Associate's U.S. Vehicle Dependability Survey for fifteen years straight, from 1994 to 2009.
First generation: 1990 – 1992
Debuted in 1989 for the 1990 model, the Lexus LS 400 was unveiled at the North American International Auto Show. The first generation LS 400 came with a 4.0-liter 1UZ-FE 32-valve V8 engine, producing an astounding 250 hp with 260 lb-ft of torque. Matching the V8 was a four-speed automatic transmission with electronically controlled shifts. /p>
The first gen stood up to its rival targets, the BMW 735i and Mercedes-Benz 420 SE, with its quieter cabin, higher top speed, lower drag coefficient and curb weight, and the fact that it avoided the U.S. Gas Guzzler Tax. Being one of the first luxury sedans, the LS 400 had an automatic tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel with SRS airbag, power adjustable shoulder seats, and an electronic rear-view mirror.
From 1990 through 1992, the LS 400 received some 300 technological innovations to improve its operation and aid in the vehicle's silence. These changes included fluid-damped cabin fixtures, vibration-insulating rubber mounts, and airflow fairings.
Second generation: 1994 – 2000
Equipped with an updated 4.0-liter 1UZ-FE V8 engine, the second generation LS 400 produced 260 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque. The LS 400 received a redesign, with improved sound insulation, a strengthened body structure, suspension upgrades, and improved brakes. It came with a longer wheelbase though main attributes from the first gen were retained, keeping with the tradition that the first LS 400 had started.
With the 36mm increase in wheelbase length, the second gen offered more interior space and rear-seat legroom. The trunk capacity was slightly reduced, but the general profile and contours of the first gen LS 400 were retained. New features added to this generation include varying dual-zone climate controls to rear cup holders, a newly patented seat cushion design, enlarged crumple zones, and a new collapsible steering column.
A five-speed automatic transmission came with the redesigned 1997 LS 400. With increased engine output of 290 hp, variable-valve timing, and an additional 30 lb-ft of torque, the new LS 400 offered improved acceleration times and fuel economy. In 2000, the limited "Platinum Series" LS 400 was unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show, featuring most luxury options standard.

Could this be Carmelo Anthony's last month as a Knick?
Harris DeckerAs long as you are reading this article immediately after it was posted, this very moment marks 30 days until the NBA's trading deadline on February 20 at 3 p.m. This year's trading deadline could set the tone for the way the Knicks rebuild over the next few years. With Carmelo Anthony approaching free agency, Steve Mills will have to decide if trading his superstar makes sense or if Anthony will stick around for the long haul.
Rebuilding the Knicks is not going to be an easy task. They are missing a number of key pieces and are void of early draft picks until 2015. Given the lack of draft picks, the Knicks will have to rely on free agency and smart trades to rebuild. The question remains, is that rebuilding around Anthony or without him?
Trading Anthony would likely yield another superstar-caliber player in return, in addition to draft picks. While I don't see Blake Griffin being the target, Anthony could bring back a mid-level superstar in addition to the aforementioned draft picks. It's truly difficult to come up with a player to target, but rest assured if Anthony became available, plenty of teams would be lining up to acquire him. I'd imagine teams with strong point guards would be the first in line.
If Mills decides to hold onto Anthony, there are two scenarios that could play out. The first is that the two sides have had a discussion and Anthony stays, understanding that the Knicks won't have much flexibility until 2015 when Amar'e Stoudemire's mega-contract comes off the books. In that scenario, Mills could look to move other pieces in order to slowly build around Anthony, before making a huge push for a guy like Kevin Love or Rajon Rondo.
There is also the nightmare scenario for the Knicks in which Mills has confidence he can re-sign Anthony and then he walks in free agency. In that scenario, the Knicks will have a lot of money to work with in each of the next two off seasons, but will have lost Anthony without any compensation.
In any case, the Knicks are getting very close to having to make a decision about Anthony. If you've read this article at a normal pace, the trading deadline is now about 29 days, 23 hours and 56 minutes away. Strap in Knicks fans. We're in for a fun month.

Paul McCartney Joins Rihanna, Kanye West for Emotional Grammy Performance
Paul McCartney provided the rough-hewn acoustic backing for an emotional Grammy night performance tonight by Rihanna and Kanye West.
Paul McCartney provided the rough-hewn acoustic backing for an emotional Grammy night performance tonight by Rihanna and Kanye West.
The third part of the equation that would become the Beatles fell into place on Feb. 6, 1958.
Paul McCartney, Rihanna and Kanye West will give the first-ever performance of their new song 'FourFiveSeconds' at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday.
A recent collaboration with Paul McCartney gave Kanye West an opportunity to pose the one question any fan would ask.
Paul McCartney was arrested for bringing marijuana into Japan on Jan. 16, 1980.
Just because Paul McCartney is one of the biggest rock stars on the planet doesn't mean all music fans automatically know who he is.
Paul McCartney guest stars on Kanye West's new song, 'Only One.'
550 celebrities were asked if they prefer John Lennon or Paul McCartney in a new video.
If you've been waiting to buy Paul McCartney's new 'Hope for the Future' single -- or see him enter the world of 'Destiny,' the hit video game for which it was composed and recorded -- today's your lucky day.
Few of us were able to witness Paul McCartney's historic, venue-closing concert at San Francisco's Candlestick Park in August, but now anyone with a newish Android phone can experience part of the show as if they were right there.

Dziga Vertov / USSR / 1929
IN THE NURSERY's score utilises the latest music technology to create a syncopated and alluring soundtrack that embraces the progressive film-making of director Vertov.
"In The Nursery's music adds a contemporary feel to a film whose joyous celebrations of modernity in all its forms still seems fresh".
Phil Johnson - The Independent on Sunday
'Man With a Movie Camera' is a kaleidoscopic city symphony which celebrates the sensory bombardment of 20th-century life, and stands as an experiment in conveying visual phenomena without the aid of titles... scenario... or theatre.
The film, with live accompaniment by IN THE NURSERY, received its premiere at the Bradford International Film Festival March 1999 and was followed by a National Cinema Tour during March & April.

On the way to the station, I stopped to pick up a parcel from the sorting office. It was a blood test kit from the PGD team. I was supposed to get a local nurse to take the blood on 14th and then post the blood to the PGD team to arrive the next day. But it was already the 14th and I was on my way to the station to catch my train to London (with the kit) and Steve was at work.
I called Steve to tell him to book an appointment for himself for the next day (as he didn't have the kit, he couldn't try and do it any earlier), which would mean his blood would arrive a day late. I couldn't get hold of any one in the PGD team though by email or phone. I sent three emails to different people to try and check it would be fine to be a day late. I was really worried that it would be a problem, as the PGD team are always very specific about exactly which day the blood is required.
I was an hour early for my appointment, as I have to book my train tickets on a working day to get the cheap ones. On Friday, I didn't know for sure that I would have an appointment on Monday. I took a gamble and booked a train ticket anyway. The gamble paid off, but meant I was far too early for my appointment.
Scan was absolutely fine and I was declared ready to start the IVF.
Fire alarm
Next there was a fire alarm and we all had to go and wait outside. There was no fire, so no big deal, but it caused a delay.
Appointment with the nurses
I went to see the nurses, which seemed to take forever as there was a lot to sort out!
Treatment schedule
So I have just one more appointment this week. The new treatment schedule means I have a slightly delayed egg collection (because my period was a couple of days late). Other than that, everything seems to be going fine.
I have just done my first IVF injection. I will write a post about injections next.
I just had a call from Mr. Serhal the medical director at CRGH. He wanted to check we are ok with being filmed for the documentary. We have to go and sign some consent forms when we are down for an appointment.

Since launching in April with a $200,000 grant from the District, the "start-up accelerator" 1776, in downtown DC, has outpaced other local tech incubators like Acceleprise and AOL's Fishbowl Labs—1776 is currently hosting some 185 companies, with another 500 applications pending. DC's niche, it turns out, is developing high-tech solutions to policy problems, which takes more than capital.
"It's not as simple as putting the consumer app out and letting it go viral," says Donna Harris, who founded 1776 with Evan Burfield. "You need to know the regulatory environment, and strategies you can use to scale." In early 2014, the company is launching Ventures, a program to help members expand their customer base, with 1776 taking a cut of resulting profits.
Here's a look at a few tenants hoping to make it big.
Not everyone at 1776 is a wonk, unless you count dating wonks: Hinge's app matches users based on Facebook profiles. Having recently secured $4 million in funds, however, Hinge is moving to New York's Silicon Alley. "If this were education or health, we'd stay," CEO Justin McLeod says. "It was really useful to grow a company here." Why? In New York and San Francisco, he explains, digital hyper-sophisticates will sink you before you begin.
This public-transit app founded by two West Point graduates shows users nearby Metro stations, bus lines, Capital Bike-share stations, and car-sharing companies, along with the estimated time and cost of a trip. Part of 1776's appeal was that the lights are always on. Says cofounder Joseph Kopser: "Transportation is a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week job."
Infield Health
CEO Douglas Naegele (above)wants to demystify the confusing instructions preop patients have to follow in the hospital, using a smartphone app that reduces them to an easy checklist. Naegele and four employees will launch their app in three hospitals (though none yet in Washington). Infield Health worked out of its own space for four years, developing programs such as smoking cessation via text message, but Naegele says: "I get huge benefits from being in a room with 12 health-IT firms."
Flat World Knowledge
One of 1776's biggest tenants—with more than 30 employees and $26.2 million in funding, according to CrunchBase—Flat World Knowledge moved to Washington from New York to expand its digital college-textbook business. Now the firm—which is about to "graduate" from 1776 by moving into its own office—is branching into granting business degrees in partnership with an accredited college; courses are delivered by tablet computer.

Most days, the streets that border Washington Navy Yard are as good a picture of DC's current growth as any neighborhood. Barracks Row, a stretch of 8th St., SE, is around the corner full of theaters, pet stores, and crowded bars and restaurants. New parks delight visitors with curving architectural features, fountains for kids to splash in, and ice rinks in the wintertime. Residential and commercial developments scrape the District's building height limits.
All of that can be sourced back to the creation, in the late 1990s, of a new headquarters for the Naval Sea Systems Command, that on Monday was the scene of one of the darkest moments in DC's history, when a former Navy reservist working there for a contractor managed to get a shotgun into the building and started a bloody rampage that ultimately left 13 people—the shooter included—dead.
Two days later, life around Navy Yard is still inching back to normality—the streets are open, the offices across the street are buzzing, the food trucks are lined up at the curb—but the base itself is still emerging from the massacre. Access to the installation is limited to essential-mission personnel, FBI agents and police continue to sweep the area for evidence from Monday's carnage, and the section of the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail that cuts through the yard next to the Anacostia River.
A military base that after many years finally enmeshed itself in its surrounding community feels receded again. And some of the people who pushed to revitalize the Navy Yard by better integrating it into the city badly hope these conditions do not last.
While real estate sales have generally been strong in the Washington area—particularly in Georgetown—in the past six months, they have felt like a return to the past, before the market crashed and the Great Recession began. Since December 2012, seven sales in the neighborhood have closed for between $6.5 million and $8.9 million. Admittedly they are premium properties, but the dollar amounts are attention-getting, totaling more than $45 million.
Here are the notable seven transactions of the past six months:
3303 Water Street, Northwest (condo apartment)—$6.5 million (listed at $6.65), seven bedrooms, five full baths
1248 30th Street, Northwest—$7.6 million (listed at $7.99), five bedrooms, six full baths
3123 Dumbarton Street, Northwest—$7 million (listed at $8), six bedrooms, four full baths
3044 O Street, Northwest—$8.6 million (listed at $9.2), nine bedrooms, seven full baths
3249 N Street, Northwest—$7.5 million (listed at $7.85), six bedrooms, five full baths
1405 34th Street, Northwest—$7.9 million (listed at $8.9), eight bedrooms, seven full baths
3053 P Street, Northwest—Still on the market for $8.9 million, nine bedrooms, nine baths
"I've seen it before, the pause at the front door, eyes soaking it in and begging for more."
"Mr. Clean must've married Danica Patrick, built a razor-sharp racetrack w/smooth banks, soft curves, and looong straight-a-ways."
"Someone please explain how this builder fit a V-8 engine in a Porsche 911? How they made a Maserati that seats 6?"
"There's some sort of warm embrace in this place, seldom felt, nourishing. Then start the tour, through silky smooth social space, into Top Chef Kitchen fit for Tapas Competition. Rarely seen first floor den = Sunday Times or Post in PJ's with toast."
"You are humbled, like what happens when we stare out to sea & feel small. . . . Wait a minute! Is that a family room off the kitchen? Toss me a Pop-Tart Mom!!!!"
Those aren't song lyrics or poorly written poems. They're excerpts from house descriptions by DC real-estate agent Tom Faison. "When I started selling homes 22 years ago, I would read these remarks that start off by saying, 'This three-bedroom has a stove,' " Faison says. "I've always hated that. I feel like it's describing the Mona Lisa as a woman with two eyes, a nose, and a mouth."
Agents have 400 characters to describe a house in an MRIS online listing. Faison likes to think of that space as a chance to sell an experience. "We don't buy homes because of logic," he says. "I try to promote a feeling and provoke people." He makes his descriptions vague, confusing, and ridiculous enough that people will want to investigate further.
Faison calls his descriptions more akin to limericks than poems. And though he has fun writing them, he says they don't make much difference in actually selling a house: "It's really all about price. A house can have a dead body in the basement, but a good price can cure that."
So why do it? "Like all real-estate agents, I crave attention. Life's too short to be boring."
This article appears in the August 2013 issue of The Washingtonian.
The house where Viola Drath was murdered almost two years ago, and which went on the market only two weeks ago, is under contract. Apparently its gruesome history did not scare away buyers. In fact, there were multiple offers, which resulted in a bidding war. The list price was $995,000, and the selling price, reportedly, is approximately $1.2 million. Settlement is expected at the end of August.
Drath was found beaten and strangled in an upstairs bathroom. Her husband, Albrecht Muth, was charged with the crime and is scheduled to go on trial in December. He has been incarcerated since shortly after police reported the crime on August 12, 2011.
Once upon a time—a century ago—Dupont Circle was ringed with mansions that were private homes. In the Gilded Age it was the hub of high society. Today only two remain—the Wadsworth House, which faces Massachusetts Avenue and is home to the Sulgrave Club, and the Patterson Mansion, which is directly on the circle and was home to the Washington Club. The membership of the club, a victim of changing tastes and times and rising operating costs, have put the elegant and historic building on the market for $26 million, making it DC's priciest piece of residential real estate. The fact that its brokers expect to have the mansion sold before the end of the year says a lot about the general vitality of the area's high-end real estate market.
The property is listed by Georgetown-based TTR Sotheby's International Realty, and Bradley Nelson of that firm gave us an inside look. While we walked from room to room, he said there have been "a lot of inquiries, extensively and globally." He said they have come from boutique hotel owners, private social clubs, investors from the Middle East, potential diplomatic buyers, and even some individuals who would return it to a private home. That's a lot of home, too, with 16 bedrooms, many grand public rooms, including a ballroom and an auditorium, and, the most important component of buying a home in Washington, parking. There's parking for ten cars, plus a garage that Nelson said may be one of the city's first.
In its lifespan, since it was designed by the firm of McKim, Mead & White in 1901, it has had only three owners, initially the Patterson family, who owned the Chicago Tribune, and whose daughter, Cissy, bequeathed it upon her death in 1948 to the American National Red Cross, who sold it to the Washington Club in 1951. In 1927, it served as a temporary home for President Calvin Coolidge and his wife while the White House was under renovation. A notable overnight guest of the Coolidges was aviator Charles Lindbergh after his historic flight, who came to town to receive the first Distinguished Flying Cross on June 11, 1927. The room he slept in is named after him.
To walk around the house now is to wish the walls could talk. It would tell stories of parties, history, and Washington. The potential is obvious. The ground-floor rooms are in better condition than upstairs, where a major renovation may be required. But, as they say in the business of interior design, the bones are there. There is an addition on the back, which the Washington Club built in 1965. It holds the large "auditorium," complete with a stage and an equally large basement room. Nelson said a buyer could "theoretically tear down the addition." But not the mansion. The original building has a historic designation and any changes within would require review and approval.
Elham Cicippio confirmed on Wednesday that she and her husband, Joseph, have put their Beaux Arts Observatory Circle residence on the market. The listing price is $4.35 million for the house at 2732 34th Street, Northwest. The name Joseph Cicippio will always be in the history books, as he was a central figure in the Lebanon hostage crisis of the late '80s and early '90s. Cicippio was kidnapped by Iranian terrorists in January 1987, when he was the comptroller at the American university in Beirut. He was held for five years and freed in December 1991.
Several years later, after he and other hostages filed lawsuits, Cicippio and his wife were awarded $30 million in a judgment against the Iranian government. The money came from frozen Iranian assets held by the US Treasury. In 2005, a federal judge in DC awarded Cicippio's family members $91 million for the emotional distress they suffered while he was held captive. That money was also collected from frozen Iranian assets. That money has never been distributed to the family members, according to Joseph Cicippio in a phone interview. "We were told there were no more Iranian frozen assets that could be allocated to this award," he says. The award remains active but, he says, "I don't think it will ever get paid." Cicippio, who is 83, says that after he was released and returned to the US he moved to Princeton, New Jersey, then to Virginia, and to DC in 2000. "That's when we bought this house," he says. "We've put our heart and soul into it."
In the years since his release he wrote a memoir, Chains to Roses, published in 1993, and became the chief financial officer at USAID. He tried retirement 13 years ago, "but I went bananas, because I've always worked since I was in eighth grade. I have to work every day. It keeps me young." He now has an IT company, Technical Specialities, in Lanham, Maryland.
The Cicippios bought the four-bedroom house for $2.1 million. Elham Cicippio said the couple had not yet decided where they will move next, but the 34th Street house had become too big for just the two of them. Joseph says they are still deciding whether to remain in the Washington area.
According to the New York Times, Cicippio was held captive by the Iranian-allied Revolutionary Justice Organization, who publicly threatened to kill him three times. The Lebanon hostage crisis spanned a decade from 1982 to '92. During that time 96 hostages were kidnapped and held captive, including 25 Americans, two of whom were killed: the CIA's William Francis Buckley and Marine colonel William Higgins.
Cicippio says he has moved on from the episode. "I don't have animosity," he says. "It's not in my makeup. We don't speak about it. I was captured. I was held. It's over." He says he did not get therapy except for the debriefers who talked with him on the flights from Damascus, where he was released, to Germany, where he was examined, and back to the US. He said he keeps in touch with only one fellow hostage, who is French.
This post has been updated throughout.
Buyer incentives are nothing new in real estate transactions, but they usually take the form of negotiable closing costs. Here's one we haven't come across before: five years of free hoagies from Taylor Gourmet. That's the deal offered by Casey Patten, co-owner of Taylor, to the buyer of his Penn Quarter condo. The one-bedroom apartment, on Seventh Street, Northwest, is listed at $489,000. In addition to the hoagies, there's an attractive kitchen with a breakfast bar (a good place to chow down on a hoagie) and a private terrace, another good place for sandwich-scarfing.
We reached out to the condo's listing agent, Jay Bauer, with a few questions. For example, how many hoagies and how often? One a week, he says, at any Taylor Gourmet. Whose idea was it? "I pitched it to Casey as a one-year hoagie deal," says Bauer, "but he said, 'How about five years?'" The freebies come in the form of a gift card worth $2,470, and the buyer can use it any way he or she chooses—once a week, four a month, all at one time (though if choosing the last option, Taylor asks to be notified 24 hours in advance).
While Bauer says he's familiar with buyer incentives, this is a new one—"definitely on the unique side." Blushing only slightly, we asked if there'd been any "nibbles." Bauer says, "There've been shark attacks. I have people calling me already"—even before the open house, which is this Sunday from 1 to 4 PM. If you are superstitious, consider this, too: The apartment is on the seventh floor of 777 Seventh Street.
One last obvious question: Will there be hoagies at the open house? Bauer laughed. "There will be plenty of Taylor Gourmet there for everybody."

Pedestrian zombies are a deadly force
A recent report by the AA says that the new technological age is creating 'pedestrian zombies' who are oblivious to road safety and could be responsible for many accidents.
AA patrols have noted a marked increase in the number of 'iPod zombie pedestrians', and the Association suggests that they could be responsible for some of the 500 pedestrian deaths or 26,887 pedestrian casualties last year.
Analysis from AA Insurance shows there has been a 5% increase in pedestrian inattention related collisions in the last year.
Descriptions in AA Insurance claims include, "he walked into the side of the car" and "pedestrian just walked out". One even tells of a car swerving to avoid a pedestrian and ending up in a chemist's shop.

REGINA: The Ombudsman report on seniors care highlights an issue CUPE members have been struggling with for years – ensuring that long term care facilities have adequate staff in place to ensure seniors receive quality care.
"The complexity of care has changed dramatically in long term care. Years ago residents in facilities were somewhat mobile and able to do things for themselves. That is no longer the case," said Gordon Campbell, president of CUPE's Saskatchewan Health Care Council. "Residents need assistance with getting dressed, bathing, eating, and toileting. A high number suffers from dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
"The government must improve staffing levels at long term care facilities. Our members are doing the best they can with limited time," Campbell added. "With the current staffing levels, our members barely have time to take care of residents' basic needs and have no time to support their emotional and social needs."
Many members working in long term care facilities report that staff is not replaced when on sick leave or other short term leave.

Saskatchewan people now have the opportunity to say YES to strengthening public services and Crown corporations, and to send that message to politicians in the lead-up to the next provincial election.
Own it! Saskatchewan belongs to everyone is a new project that will give citizens a voice in a province-wide discussion about the future of public services and Crowns.
"Public services help keep our province strong. This project is about making sure we find ways to improve public services now for everyone, and keeping what we've built secure for our kids and grandkids," says Larry Hubich, president of the Saskatchewan Federation of Labour.
"Every family and every community in Saskatchewan benefits from public services and Crown corporations. If the Sask. Party government is planning to sell off those services and put those benefits at risk, everyone should know what is at stake, and have a chance to take part in the conversation – and to stop costly privatization schemes," Hubich adds.

OTTAWA, ON - The Canadian Union of Public Employees is celebrating today's Supreme Court decision recognizing the constitutional right of public sector workers to go on strike. CUPE, Canada's largest union, is calling the decision a huge victory for all workers across the country.
"The ability of workers to go on strike is a fundamental part of collective bargaining; a corner stone of our free and democratic society. It is extremely important to have the highest court in our country recognize this as a right of all workers, private and public sector alike," said Paul Moist, national president of CUPE. "No union ever wants a strike, but without the right to strike, employers have an unfair advantage. This decision secures a balance between workers and employers in negotiations."

Progress in Nucleic Acid Research and Molecular Biology
Edited by
- Kivie Moldave, Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, University of California, Irvine, California, U.S.A.
Nucleic acids are the fundamental building blocks of DNA and RNA and are found in virtually every living cell. Molecular biology is a branch of science that studies the physicochemical properties of molecules in a cell, including nucleic acids, proteins, and enzymes. Increased understanding of nucleic acids and their role in molecular biology will further many of the biological sciences including genetics, biochemistry, and cell biology. Progress in Nucleic Acid Research and Molecular Biology is intended to bring to light the most recent advances in these overlapping disciplines with a timely compilation of reviews comprising each volume.View full description

Uuh . . . NOPE!
I didn't think so either
To Quote the great Ronald Reagan the last conservative POTUS 1981-89 "Well, the problem with our Liberal friends is that they are not ignorant, but they know so much that isn't so"
Uuh . . . NOPE!
A big challenge in life is overcoming the urge to recoil in horror when one realizes the deep blackness that lies slightly beneath the thin veneer of the world.

Topic: Serious Discussion / Should we relax marriage laws even further?
Originally posted by stanwise:
Works for me!
Ideally, we'd leave marriage to clerics, and let each religious sect decide for itself who it will or won't marry.
Government would be solely in the business of forming civil units, which would be composed of any number of consenting adults of any gender who have chosen to pool their finances, legal affairs, households, and lives together. These civil units would then get the legal protections currently afforded to marriage, such as joint tax returns, family health insurance plans, hospital visitation rights, and so on. The paperwork would undoubtedly be more complicated, but I hear computers are pretty complex themselves these days.
How does that sound?

I have been a customer of ProFlowers for many years and regularly purchased gifts for friends and family. When I saw the promotion entitled "40% off -- it's time to send a gift!" I went online and selected a 2-day package comprised of a floral arrangement and dipped strawberries. I saw that the "free" vase would have an additional shipping fee associated with it, so I selected "no vase". I filled out all the forms and got to the last page to review my order, then was startled by the total amount.
The "standard delivery" charge was $12.99 -- pretty high and definitely higher than competitors. Then, though I had selected "no vase, " the site reinserted my "free" vase (highlighting it at the top of the page like it was a great deal) then charged me $1.63 for promotional vase shipping. The capper was yet ANOTHER charge of $2.99 for "care and handling"?! I have to pay extra for ProFlowers not to drop the products as they put them in the box for shipment? Wow -- nearly $18 just to get my gift to the recipient, where the gift itself just cost $64. That means ProFlowers is charging 28% of the purchase price to deliver the product.
I closed down the page and did not complete the order. I believe the way ProFlowers advertised this promotion while slipping in all these additional charges borders on deceptive trade practices. I definitely will not be doing business with the company again until it charges fair and reasonable shipping fees that are clearly disclosed to its customers.

NEW YORK (AP) - Dave Bry is a professional apologizer, first in a Dear (Person He's Wronged) column online and now a letter-by-letter memoir of messing up and making amends.
Out Tuesday, Bry's "Public Apology" is stuffed with wrongs, from the foibles of an anxious, surly tween on the New Jersey shore to the regrets of a 20-year-old who drinks and drugs too much, losing his father to cancer at a crucial time in his growing up.
Could you fill a book with apologies? Bry has no trouble.
Through high school in Little Silver, N.J., with his little sister and psychologist, ex-hippie parents, Bry spends a lot of time apologizing for bad behavior at school as he set a record for detentions and tried to lose his virginity. He succeeds with the girlfriend of a classmate. And he's sorry.
Girls figure big into Bry's apologies. At Connecticut College, where it took him six years to graduate, he once left a drawer full of a girl's love letters behind after she left her school and friends behind to join him there.
A victim of the recession, the 42-year-old Brooklyn dad of an 8-year-old son started writing his Public Apology column at the culture site The Awl in 2009, as he lost a magazine job and got his freelance writing career off the ground. About 40 percent of the book is repurposed columns.
Bry (pronounced bree) hopes others will join him in apologizing _ on a Tumblr called the Public Apology Project. Ahead of the book, from Grand Central Publishing, just a handful of people had taken up Bry on his offer of anonymity to set things right in their own lives.
Here are five questions for Dave Bry:
AP: Your chosen format is very 12-steppy. Have you ever been involved in a 12-step program? Did the method influence you at all?
Bry: A lot of people have said that. I went to six (Alcoholics Anonymous) meetings when I was in college. In college, I used to drink too much, which is probably apparent to anyone who reads the book. And so I was sort of sent to a local AA group by the shrink at the college clinic, where I went, cause I was basically trying to stay in school, trying not to fail all my classes and drop out of school. So yeah, I have been to meetings. I've never thought about that before, whether or not that might have stuck with me in terms of storytelling. Not consciously.
AP: Was the idea for the book to share something of yourself beyond the usual memoir?
Bry: I'm a little reluctant to talk about it in terms of getting weight off my shoulders, confessing for the sake of aleving guilt. In my least generous look at it, I'd call it a gimmick. But I relate well to other stories told in the first person, that feeling of, `Oh man, it could have come out of my own head.' The loftiest goal of the book would be that people might relate to it and remember, `Oh my god, I remember when I did that stupid, embarrassing thing, and I remember when I was such a jerk and I've been beating myself up about it since.' It's nice to know that other people feel that way.
AP: Were you trying to get in touch with your previous selves?
Bry: I think about the stuff that I've done wrong a lot. I'm a real harsh judge of behavior, probably most harshly my own. I look at my behavior pretty closely and look back on things and can identify many, many times in my life that I screwed up. I think I've always been looking back five years and thinking, `Oh my god, thank god I'm not that same person. I was such an idiot.' Five or 10 years from now I'll be looking back and thinking, `Oh my god, what a clown, what a fool. I can't believe he wrote that book.'
AP: Do dads have more to apologize for than moms? I noticed both you and your wife were responsible for losing your son in a Brooklyn park.

I know it is very difficult to find a high class escort girl who isn't only beautiful but also intelligent. I might not be your type or am not available, but I can make it easier for you to find an other high class escort by recommending you one of my girlfriends.
Do not feel embarrassed to ask me about my girlfriends, I will not be offended by this in any way. I take it as a compliment that you trust me enough to let me advise you about my girlfriends. Of course a bisexual duo booking is also available! I am more than happy to indulge your duo fantasy by bringing along one of my beautiful girlfriends. My girlfriends are also available for 2 hour bookings and sometimes at shorter notice. Not all girlfriends have an online portfolio so if your ideal match is not listed, please send me an e-mail with a description of your ideal high class escort and we go from there. Most of my girlfriends are based in major cities of The Netherlands, such as Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht and so on, but bookings are available nation- and worldwide.

I'm a Chicago girl who has lived in Somerville for the past 6 years. I love getting outdoors and exploring New England, especially since I didn't grow up with so many states so close together! It still amazes me that I can get from Connecticut to Rhode Island to Massachusetts to New Hampshire to Vermont to Maine in such a short period of time!

Hardin Center to offer calligraphy class

A beginners' calligraphy class will be offered by the Hardin Center beginning Aug. 28.
The class will be taught by Mike Probyn and will run for four weeks from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
Designed for the beginner, the italic alphabet or chancery cursive is a popular introduction to calligraphy and was the handwriting of Renaissance scribes. Italic is a modern, legible alphabet that has a wide variety of applications including invitations and scrapbooking.
Students in a step-by-step approach will learn the alphabet with basic strokes, lower case letters, capitals, numerals, punctuation and spacing.
The cost of the class is $100 and the student must purchase supplies. The fee is due in full prior to the state of the class.
For more information, contact Probyn at 256-442-6141 or inquire at the front desk of the center before 5 p.m. on weekdays.
