Silver Spring, MD -June 26, 2008: The RMC Research and Education Foundation is proud to announce the release of the revised version of its Pervious Concrete Research Compilation. The new version includes information on pervious concrete research studies completed and underway since the original compilation was published in June 2006. It now also includes abstracts of study findings as well as links to study information on the internet where applicable. The compilation was updated by the original author, Dr. Heather J. Brown with the Concrete Industry Management Program at Middle Tennessee State University.
Originally, the Foundation's Board of Trustees commissioned the compilation to better understand the wide-range of pervious concrete research already in existence and to ensure they would not approve funding for duplicative research. "Given the important role of pervious concrete in the sustainable development movement and the Foundation's desire to fund projects that will improve the application, the Trustees sought to have this compilation completed and later updated to obtain a better understanding of the breadth of existing knowledge on pervious concrete," said RMC Research and Education Foundation Chairman George Gregory of Essroc Cement, adding "Commissioning this study also gave us the opportunity to again partner with one of the CIM program universities." Foundation Executive Director Julie Garbini noted "We received a great deal of positive feedback when the original compilation was released and high demand for the compilation continues today. Many within the concrete community are eagerly awaiting the update to this informative, living document."
The revised pervious concrete research compilation may be downloaded from the Foundation's website at www.rmc-foundation.org where information on all of the Foundation's research and educational projects may also be found. Hardcopies of the report are also available. The mission of the RMC Research and Education Foundation is to support research and educational programs that will increase professionalism and quality in the concrete industry.

For over thirty years, the Festival d'Ile de France has been brightening the Parisian fall by offering more than thirty concerts, including many commissioned works, all federated by a new theme each year.
The program includes world and popular music, but also ancient, baroque, classical and contemporary repertoires.
Every September and October, between 20,000 and 25,000 people embark upon this great cultural treasure hunt throughout the Île-de-France Region and discover unusual heritage sites such as castles, churches, historic theaters, old warehouses or exquisite parks. This specific match between music and venues provide a mutual enrichment and emotion, and is a promise of unforgettable memories.
The Festival d'Ile de France has also developed over the years educational programs for all type of audience. A hundred of lectures, workshops or masterclasses are held each year.
This year's festival is all about adventures, big or small, real or imaginary, near or far.
We are set to embark on an epic musical journey, discovering some truly exceptional individual destinations along the way. Travelling to us from far frontiers will be new sounds and new accents, those of Judeo-Arabic melopoeia, traditional Romani music or Senegalese mbalax.
We will become adventurers, explorers on a voyage of initiation to the very gates of the new world.
From Sub-Saharan Africa and Morocco with all their diversity, we will fly over the spine of the Andes with the airmail pioneers, or bask in the poetry and majesty of the cities of the Far East, made sublime by the verse of Adonis and the music of Zad Moultaka. We will follow in the footsteps of Marco Polo to the heart of Asia, or take a more intimate trip with a cello along the shores of Brazil.
Then, suddenly, we will begin to hear echoes of the heroes and guardians of the founding texts. We will honour Madalena in the Pays d'Oc, as Sibelius celebrates the ancient gods of Finland. The wondrous will open up before us and the imagination run free, as King Kong climbs to the very heights of the fantastic, and Guillaume Perret and Benjamin Flao dive down to the heart of the lost city of Atlantis. Closer to home, Vinicio Capossela will share his amazing odyssey.
This year's edition will take us on a journey of adventure, along the most precipitous, the most captivating paths.

Director of the Festival d'Ile de France

Hmmm...not turning up much for "grateful"...Perhaps a name that means "grace"?
There's also Tallula, which means "lady of abundance", and Cornelia comes from the same root as cornucopia.

The ones I can think of would be Gratiana, which is Hebrew, and Aissa, which is Latin (that I LOVE). I'm fairly sure Shakira means something along those lines also, but don't quote me on it.
I can't really think of any "common" names in the western world with that connotation.

On second thought, you could go with something that meant about the same - Anya means "gift", for example. Bea means "blessing". Gwyneth means "blessed" or "fortunate".

When I first noticed the Hershey's with Crisp Corn Bits bar in the candy aisle at my local supermarket, a series of thoughts ran quickly through my mind: What is that? Corn? Who wants corn in a candy bar? It kind of looks like those honeycomb chocolates on the package, but those don't have corn in them. I wonder if it's crunchy. It's on sale ... Read More »
How to Substitute All Purpose Flour for Cake Flour
A question I get asked on a regular basis is "Can I substitute all purpose flour for cake flour?"

Hershey and Callebaut join up
While everyone has their favorite, the Swiss chocolate maker Callebaut is widely considered to be the gold standard of chocolate around the world.

Chocolate aficionados may therefore be surprised to hear that The Hershey ... Read More »
Black Cherry Sour Cream Muffins
After I pulled this batch of muffins out of the oven, I immediately thought that I should have made muffin-tops instead of the whole muffin. The tops were perfectly domed, rising up nicely over the top of the muffin tin, and had a slightly crisp top, thanks to some sugar sprinkled on before baking. Then I tasted one of the slightly cooled muffins and was ... Read More »
Wheat Free Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
I don't do too much wheat free/gluten free baking because I don't have much call to do so.

The Best
Posted by bobm128 on Jun 30, 2011
The Enzymedica enzymes are the best I've found to help me digest food. My digestive tract is a bit sluggish and, depending on the food I eat, can feel bloated etc. As long as I take these with meals (1-3 caps), it's pretty rare that I feel uncomfortable afterwards. They are pricy but worth it. I recommend Enzymedica, Digest Gold Enzymes.
Simply the best
Posted by Reviewer1085743 on Jul 06, 2011
For years I have had trouble with my digestion and tried almost every enzyme on the market but nothing helped. Then I found my stomach wasn't making enough Hydrochloric acid. I now take Bluebonnet Nutrition, Betaine HCl Plus Pepsin, at the start of my meal and then. Enzymedic, Digest Gold Enzymes with and after if I need extra help. I am feeling much better and my meals are digesting wonderfully now.
Posted by Reviewer3158176 on Jul 13, 2011
These enzymes are the best. All my digestive problems have dissappeared. Highyly recommend.
Enzymedica, Digest Gold Enzymes works together with Enzymedica, GlutenEase
Posted by Reviewer2747140 on May 15, 2012
I prefer these two products (Enzymedica, Digest Gold Enzyme and Enzymedica, GlutenEase) together rather than alone. Both in my mind are at least a 4 star alone, but when you combine them together they both become a 5 star and really work hard to relieve bloating and the uncomfortableness of certain foods. They are both good products to use if you are on the SCD Diet (Special Carbohydrate Diet) to help with the healing process of the gut. Enzymedica has no hidden additives that will hurt your gut and like I said before it works along with the SCD Diet and does not bring any hidden ingredients that will make healing the gut more difficult. Not like some products that use Inulin or Maltodextrin as an additive. These two, Enzymedica, Digest Gold Enzyme and Enzymedica, GlutenEase are safe from any extra additives. You get what exactly what Enzymes it says on the back of the bottle nothing less and nothing more. AND, yes I believe it's worth the cost of the two products together.
Digest Gold Enzymes
Posted by Reviewer3291730 on Feb 21, 2012
The strongest, best enzymes for IBS. I take one before I eat anything and don't need to usually take any other medications. Thankyou Enzymedica.....

I was blessed to have seen this movie last night. It made me laugh, it made me cry and it made me love life.
This movie is a great movie that depicts a love of a father for his son. Will Smith did an incredible job and deserves every accolade available to him. His son also did a fantastic job.
There is a great lesson that is learned in this movie and it truly shares the struggles of everyday life.
This movie was heart felt and touching. It was truly an experience worth having. Thank you for making this movie and I look forward to seeing it again.

Based on a true story about a man named Christopher Gardner. Gardner has invested heavily in a device known as a "Bone Density scanner". He feels like he has made these devices. However, they do not sell as they are marginally better than the current technology at a much higher price. As Gardner tries to figure out how to sell them, his wife leaves him, he loses his house, his bank account, and credit cards. Forced to live out in the streets with his son, Gardner is now desperate to find a steady job; he takes on a job as a stockbroker, but before he can receive pay, he needs to go through 6 months of training, and to sell his devices.

Great Movie
I was blessed to have seen this movie last night. It made me laugh, it made me cry and it made me love life.
Entertainment galore, plus inspiration for families, for entrepreneurs and for social action
They just don't make many this good. The audience and I cried, laughed, cheered and applauded. The climactic scene is as powerful and cathartic as The Shawshank Redemption's golden moment. Will Smith is terrific, his son Jaden is just perfect, and Thandie Newton puts in a convincing supporting act. The movie's 1980s San Francisco is absorbing and authentic without stealing the show.
Best of all, if you are a thinker, this movie will challenge your visions of family, business and society. On one hand, the film reinforces the great American myth of the self-made man and equal opportunity. Myths are not necessarily false simply for being myths--we can make some of them true by choice, and our belief in this myth still helps make America great. Free-market capitalism is not the cure to all ills--surely it is the source of many ills--but it does open social doors that nothing else can even budge. On the other hand, if you can leave this movie without a burning indignation that any American child of any race should have to struggle just to have a place to sleep, you must be cynical indeed. This movie doesn't get on a soapbox, not even for a second--it just tells a real-life story that owns you before you know it.
I hope a few of us will let our motivations own us for years instead of hours after the movie's over.
Will Smith is Oscar-worthy, no doubt about it.
Here's the deal: It's real, it's heavy, and it's inspirational, but NOT AT ALL cheesy. Don't like that? Don't see it. I won't say much else. I will say that Will Smith was shockingly good now that he's paid his dues with "Men in Black" and "Bad Boys."
I was very happy that this film never got political and blamed Reagan for the number of "down on their luck" people that were shown, nor was the race card ever pulled out. It was also refreshing that Smith's character never blamed anybody for his troubles.
It's very funny at parts, but be prepared for some serious drama. In no ways is it cliche or contrived or boring. Let's just say that's it not Oliver Stone dramatic. This truly is a must see. To say "I laughed, I cried" would be really lame. It is the truth, though.
We know that Scorsese's crowning achievement "The Departed" is going to take the cake at the Oscars, and I won't be complaining. But this movie deserves to be experienced and taken in by the masses.

Archive for the 'Springfield Massachusetts' tag
From the Archives: 1923 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Riviera Town Car
The incomparable Silver Ghost is one of the most revered cars ever built by Rolls-Royce. Over 6,000 Ghosts were built by the luxury automaker in England, with production beginning on Cooke Street in Manchester and concluding at the industrial Rolls-Royce Works in Derby in 1925. There were also over 1,700 made in Springfield, Massachusetts from 1921-1926, giving the rare Silver Ghost some international exposure. It's believed there are about 1,000 left today. As fate would have it, this one was a cover car in the January 1973 issue of Hemmings Motor News. Photographed at Hershey in 1972, this Silver Ghost belonged to Dr. Erle M. Heath who purchased this Brewster-bodied car in 1970. What became of the car is unknown by us, though we'd love to know what happened to it. Dr. Heath writes:
It is, of course, a Springfield Ghost, and to the best of my knowledge the only Silver Ghost with the Riviera Town Car body. The Brewster Riviera body is characterized by a rake to the windshield, triangular glass inserts at the base of the windshield frames, contoured front doors, and a 'rakish' fender line. There were a limited number of these produced, most of which were mounted on P1 chassis.
The interior features upholstery with a petit point design on the black background on the seat panels, gold plated hardware, and the mouton and Persian lamb rug. I think the car expresses the elegance of a by-gone era, yet avoids the angular boxy lines of many of the Town Cars of the 1920's.
To date we have enjoyed it chiefly at shows, and a few opportunities for local drives, but look forward to using it for tour purposes in the future.
The car was shown at the AACA Hershey Meet in '71 at which time it won First Junior, and subsequently at the '72 Spring meet at Seven Spring and the '72 Hershey meet at both of which it received Senior awards. We look forward to taking our Ghost to the RROC National Meet in Newport next September.
Indian motorcycles come home to Springfield
Indian Day, a rally and celebration of the classic Indian Motocycle, returns to Indian's hometown of Springfield, Massachusetts, this Sunday, July 15. The event takes place on the grounds of the Springfield Museums, whose Lyman & Merrie Wood Museum of Springfield History houses a collection of more than three dozen Indians, manufactured in the western Massachusetts city from 1901 to 1953.
Indian Day is sponsored by the Sampson family in honor of Esta Manthos, who was president and co-founder of the now-closed Indian Motocycle Museum in the company's former factory on Springfield's Hendee Street. Manthos donated her collection to the Springfield Museums.
Anyone who rides a pre-1953 Indian to the show will receive two free adult admissions to the museum, and a commemorative Indian Day button. Will there be vendors, food and beverages, and music played by a DJ? Of course.
Admission is $15 for adults, $10 for seniors and college students, and $8 for children ages 3-17. The fee includes admission to Indian Day events and all four Springfield Museums. Residents of Springfield will be admitted free of charge with proof of residency.
For more information, visit SpringfieldMuseums.org.
Duryea's debut: 120 years of the American automobile, maybe
Photo courtesy Library of Congress
Even Charles E. Duryea was quick to point out that he (and especially his brother, J. Frank Duryea) was not the inventor of the automobile. Duryea, certainly an automotive pioneer and in later years an automotive historian, often cited examples of American-built self-propelled carriages from the 1860s through the 1880s, Cugnot, and even Heron's steam engine. Yet he remained steadfast in his claims of being the first American to build and sell a gasoline-powered automobile, and he even gave us a date for historical posterity: April 19, 1892.
So why do so many references to the first Duryea automobile note that it debuted in September 1893?
In fact, there are plenty of discrepancies in the Duryea story from reference book to reference book, all likely due to the very public spat between the two brothers behind the pioneering effort (a third brother, Otho Cromwell Duryea, attempted to market a Duryea car of his own, but only built one in 1901 and then exited the automobile industry). The first contemporary account of a Duryea automobile was indeed in September 1893, when a reporter from the Springfield Evening-Union described a trial run of the Duryea brothers' horseless carriage (literally – it was a secondhand horse-drawn carriage into which the brothers planted a 4hp 1,302cc single-cylinder engine) at the Howard Bemis farm just outside Springfield. The Springfield Republican thus made sure to show up a couple of months later to report on a subsequent test run out front of the brothers' shop on Taylor Street. By January 1894, the automobile was capable of completing a six-mile test run.
Whether Charles was even present at these early test runs doesn't seem to be clear. He left Springfield in September 1892 for Peoria, Illinois, to help launch a bicycle he designed, leaving Frank behind to carry out the work on the automobile that Charles conceived. After the test runs, Frank went to work building a second car that incorporated a number of improvements, including a purpose-built body, three forward speeds and pneumatic tires. The first car went into storage until 1920, when Duryea engineer Inglis Uppercu retrieved it and donated it to the Smithsonian, where it remains today. The second car went on to compete in the Times-Herald race in Chicago in November 1895, a couple of months after the brothers formed the Duryea Motor Wagon Co., which built 13 cars before going belly-up in 1898. The brothers' major patents for gasoline-powered automobiles (585159, 586084, and 588103) were all issued during this period.
After that, the brothers never worked together again. They formed separate companies to manufacture automobiles, and years later, after automobiles became widely accepted, they disputed publicly who between them should get credit for building the first American gasoline automobile. It was into this fray that Charles Duryea submitted not only that he alone was "Father of the American Auto Industry" and "the great reason why we use gas cars today" but also that he first thought of using a spark-fired gasoline engine to propel a vehicle in 1886 (a convenient date) and that work on the first Duryea automobile began in August 1891, with testing on April 19, 1892. (According to Duryea, the first and second cars were nearly identical, but it is in fact the second car that's housed in the Smithsonian.) Interestingly, he also noted that the first car was tuned and completed in September 1892, the same month he left Springfield for Peoria, thus intimating that Frank's efforts after then were insignificant.
Of course, Charles Duryea's motivations in making these claims were questionable, and as L. Scott Bailey wrote in his article on Duryea history in Automobile Quarterly (Vol. 23, No. 4), "Charles's life was more complex, diverse, controversial, and difficult to tie down. His writing offers conflicting dates, with lapses of entire sequences, and yet is extremely exact about others."
All that said, we'll just note one last thing: In the photo that illustrates this story, we see Charles Duryea in what the Library of Congress describes as the Chicago race-winning Duryea, the brothers' third vehicle (other photos taken the same day show both Charles and Frank sitting in the vehicle). We've also come across a newspaper clipping from 1920 that notes the Duryea that Uppercu donated to the Smithsonian was the Duryea brothers' second vehicle, so it seems that there may be more to Charles Duryea's claim than mere bravado. In either case, here's to 120 years of American motoring.
Goodguys, Billetproof announce venue changes
As one nationwide series of hot rod shows announces that it will depart a longtime venue for one of its shows, another makes plans to return one of its shows to an old venue.
For 2012, Goodguys will move its 21st annual East Coast Nationals – held since its inception at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck, New York – to the Eastern States Exposition Grounds in West Springfield, Massachusetts. According to Goodguys spokesmen, the move was the direct result of the fairgrounds not providing a date for 2012 that works with Goodguys' schedule. Scheduling had already caused the East Coast Nationals to switch from its traditional September date to June in 2009. Next year's East Coast Nationals will take place Father's Day Weekend, June 15-17.
Meanwhile, Billetproof, which runs a five-show, two-drag schedule, will return to the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing in Ocala for its 2012 Florida show. One of the two shows added to Billetproof's schedule after Alan Galbraith bought the series in 2007, the Florida show took place at the museum in 2008 and 2009, then moved to Gainesville in 2010 and 2011. Next year's Florida Billetproof show will take place March 17.
While we were at it, we checked in with the National Street Rod Association, which doesn't appear to have made any changes to its event schedule for 2012.
UPDATE (14.October 2011): Hudson Valley Street Rods, which served as the host club for Goodguys Rhinebeck, has announced that it will step in to fill the void left by Goodguys at Rhinebeck with the inaugural Rhinebeck Nationals – what the club calls "The Affordable Alternative" – on the weekend of July 27-28. For more information, visit HudsonValleyStreetRods.com.
UPDATE (26.October 2011): Goodguys released the entire 2012 schedule. No other major changes.
First Springfield Vintage Grand Prix postponed
The inaugural Springfield Vintage Grand Prix, which had been scheduled for July 22-24, has been postponed by a year, with the organizers citing legal and safety obstacles. Springfield, Massachusetts, Mayor Domenic J. Sarno, city officials, and organizers met privately for more than an hour on Monday before making the announcement.
"We're a little disappointed, of course, but it's in the best interests of the city and the community to postpone until 2012," organizer and Springfield resident Mike Hall told public radio station WFCR. "It's been a race since the beginning to try to pull this off. The [Springfield] law department had to write special legislation for us to even make this legal in the state of Massachusetts, not just in the city of Springfield." The Republican newspaper of Springfield has also been following the story.
Organizers envision a vintage race that takes place on a 1.6-mile course through the city's downtown. One of the sticking points, apparently, is a 1915 Massachusetts law prohibiting racing in the streets. Organizers also referred to unspecified, unresolved issues with the city.
Springfield had been chosen for its pioneering role in the automotive industry; the Duryea brothers built their first car here, and a tiny sampling of the the city's notable manufacturers includes Knox, Rolls-Royce and Indian Motocycle. The race is being organized in cooperation with the Vintage Sports Car Club of America.
Breaking news: Vintage Grand Prix comes to Springfield, Mass.
The Vintage Sports Car Club of America has announced that it will launch a vintage grand prix in Springfield, Massachusetts, this July, ending its 28-year participation in the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. The race will be held July 23 and 24 on a 1.6-mile course through the city's downtown.
The president of the VSCCA, John Schieffelin, explained that his organization and the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix Association had parted ways over philosophical differences on the running of the event. He said PVPGA members decided to take control of the event, and were interested in "bulking up" the races by admitting cars that would not have been allowed under VSCCA rules. (The VSCCA's emphasis is on rare and unusual sports and racing cars, including pre-war and certain post-war cars through December 31, 1959.) As a result, the VSCCA's board of directors unanimously agreed to end their participation in Pittsburgh. The choice of dates, the same as those of the PVGP, was dictated by the availability of the VSCCA's volunteer workers, and scheduling issues with the City of Springfield.
PVGP Executive Director Dan DelBianco confirmed that the VSCCA will no longer be the Pittsburgh event's sanctioning body. He stressed that this year's race in Pittsburgh will go on, sanctioned by the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix Association. "Our race will survive and thrive – there's no question about it," he said. He declined to discuss the reasons for the VSCCA's withdrawal.
Springfield was chosen for the new event for its significant role in the history of American manufacturing. It was the location of dozens of vehicle factories, most prominent among them Duryea, Knox, Rolls-Royce and Indian motorcycles. "This annual, free to the public charity event will be a great success and the crown jewel of New England events. Other cities will try to replicate this, but no other city in this country can recreate our true American story. There's many Springfields across the nation, but there is only one 'City of Firsts,'" according to the SVGP website.
On the SVGP site is a link to a brief interview with VSCCA President John Schieffelin by Kari Njiri of National Public Radio affiliate WFCR, and a news item from MassLive.com, the online site of the Springfield newspaper, the Republican.
The VSCCA is the oldest automotive preservation club in America that offers a complete race program in addition to rally and other automotive conservation events.
Stay tuned for more developments….
Four-Links – forgotten fiberglass, abandoned diamond miners, two-headed tunnel-washer, history of Indian motorcycles
* You're all no doubt familiar with Geoff Hacker, who's fed me many cool pictures to use in HCC Lost and Found and here on the blog, and now Geoff has started his own website, ForgottenFiberglass.com, to share his love of all the weird and wonderful homebuilt and limited-built cars of the postwar era. He's promised to keep us in the clover with odd fiberglass cars, but there'll be even more such at his site.
* While researching the LeTourneau trucks for our recent post on them, we came across Artificial Owl, a blog focused solely on presenting photos of abandoned man-made creations. If you like decay, this is the blog for you. One of the interesting posts in their archives was of this Namibian junkyard full of diamond-mining trucks. Allegedly, De Beers, which runs the mine, won't scrap or sell off their used equipment for fear that an errant diamond might make it out with the truck, so the trucks are left to rot right at the mine.
* How do you wash the inside of a tunnel? With a two-headed tunnel-washer, duh. BigLorryBlog has more on these rigs, designed to drive in and back out of tunnels without turning around.
* We had a couple great posts over at The Selvedge Yard to choose from this week, and the first part of a history of Indian motorcycles won out. Certainly not comprehensive (the history of Indian could fill – and has filled – volumes), but full of great imagery nonetheless. Part 2 is now up, with more to come.
* Finally, while poking around the website for our friend Melvin Benzaquen's resto shop, Classic Restorations Enterprises, we came across a cool commercial he filmed for the business. Burnouts are always good for an ad.

Candwich: The future of food?
Stop the world, we want to get off. If this is what we can expect from the future of food development then we want out now. There's no way we could stomach these Candwiches. Yep, candwiches. Canned sandwiches.
Available in three "delicious" varieties - strawberry jelly, peanut butter and grape jelly and BBQ Chicken - its makers claim that:
"Candwich is the perfect product for people on the go such as students, construction workers, soccer moms and outdoor enthusiasts. Unique packaging offers convenience and protection while backpacking, camping, biking, and other activities. Easy to store display - does not require refrigeration".
Remember that in the States jelly means jam. Not that a peanut butter and grape jam Candwich sounds any less disgusting than a peanut butter and grape jelly one.
We thought we'd include the Candwich as a bit of a light-hearted Friday fun story. But on second thoughts, there's nothing fun about gastroenteritis.
We've no scientific proof that these Candwiches would actually cause any sort of illness at all. In fact, they're probably completely safe.
But just look at the BBQ Chicken option and then tell us that if you ate something that looks like that it wouldn't cause you to have a few elongated spells on the throne.
UPDATE: If sandwiches aren't you thing then Bitterwallet brings news that whole chickens are also available in cans. And please make sure you let us know your canned food favourites in the comments below.
Thanks Steve

They had already been considering it and now it's official -- Napster will be converting its entire downloads catalogue to 100% DRM-free MP3s (innit funny how things come full circle?) in Q2 of this year. With all track and album sales offered exclusively in MP3 format, the company obviously hopes to attract a certain crowd heretofore locked out of its business model. While the subscription service will remain a core focus, Napster execs are surely hoping to see an uptick in their direct download sales when those teeming iPod and iPhone hordes come knocking second quarter.

Abnormal coronary microvascular vasodilation has been demonstrated in patients with diabetes and metabolic syndrome, but the role of insulin resistance in its pathogenesis is not clear. The aim of this study is to invasively assess coronary microcirculation and to investigate the relationship of insulin resistance with coronary microvascular dysfunction.
A pressure temperature-sensor-tipped coronary wire will be advanced in coronary arteries without significant lumen reduction. Thermodilution-derived coronary flow reserve (CFR) will be calculated as resting mean transit time (Tmn) divided by hyperemic Tmn (obtained with a 5-min i.v. infusion of adenosine 140 mg/kg/min). An index of microvascular resistance (IMR) will be calculated as the distal coronary pressure at maximal hyperemia divided by the inverse of the hyperemic Tmn. FFR will be calculated by the ratio of Pd/Pa at maximal hyperemia. Insulin resistance (IR) will be assess by the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) index and plasma IL-6 and TNF-alpha levels will be measured in addition to routine blood examinations before the procedure.

He has educated himself by watching television and listening closely to thewords of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver.

There will be a limited number of tickets available so please arrive early. With this system, people who arrive a few minutes early should be able to secure a ticket and no previously registered spots remain unused because of no-shows.
