The axonal compartment of developing neurons and mature peripheral nervous system (PNS) neurons has the capacity to locally synthesize proteins. Axonally-synthesized proteins have been shown to facilitate axonal pathfinding and maintenance in developing central nervous system (CNS) and PNS neurons, and to facilitate the regeneration of mature PNS neurons. RNA-profiling studies of the axons of cultured neurons have shown a surprisingly complex population of mRNAs that encode proteins for a myriad of functions. Although classic-appearing rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus have not been documented in axons by ultrastructural studies, axonal RNA profiling studies show several membrane and secreted protein-encoding mRNAs whose translation products would need access to a localized secretory mechanism. We previously showed that the axons of cultured neurons contain functional equivalents of RER and Golgi apparatus. Here, we show that markers for the signal-recognition particle, RER, ER, and Golgi apparatus are present in PNS axons in vivo. Co-localization of these proteins mirrors that seen for cultured axons where locally-translated proteins are localized to the axoplasmic membrane. Moreover, nerve injury increases the levels and/or aggregation of these proteins, suggesting that the regenerating axon has an increased capacity for membrane targeting of locally synthesized proteins.

Berry Knudson had a talent for disaster, but when she climbed a tree to rescue a kitten, she wasn't prepared for the scrumptious hunk undressing in a nearby window, or her dive downward that smashed Jake Sawyer's pizza and won his heart But was there room in her chaotic schedule for a risk-taking inventor with dreams? She took classes, delivered pizzas, and cared for three eccentric old ladies she rescued from the train station. But Jake thrived on a challenge, and he could be very inventive. Could he teach her there was time to make butterscotch pudding and let herself be loved?

2112 E Republican: Soon to rent
I just spoke with Thomas Wilkerson, property manager of the blue home at 2112 E Republican. What will become of one of Seattle's most notorious crime scenes? "Right now, we're going through the insurance process and once it gets cleaned it'll be back up on the market for rental," said Wilkerson. He said he expects that to take "a month or more."

In the Rudyard School District, voters narrowly turned down a request for a 2.87 mill issue which would have brought in $3.75 million, including school improvements and $250,000 for technology upgrades.
On a vote of 366 in favor and 382 against the measure, it is back to square one for school officials.
"We are disappointed because a lot of people worked very hard to get this passed," said Rudyard Area Schools Superintendent Mark Pavloski. "The problems we are facing will not just go away. We will try again."
For a house appraised at $60,000 with a taxable value of $30,000, the cost to the homeowner there would have been an additional $86 per year or about $7.20 per month.
If the millage was adopted by Rudyard voters, residents would have been paying for two millages for the first six years.
The money would have been used to replace doors, the roof and windows. The millage would help replace old plumbing from the 1960s in the restrooms so they don't smell anymore.
The money also would have purchased five new buses, put exterior lights on the playground for safety, hazardous material abatement, emergency strobe in metal and wood shop classrooms, and an emergency gas shut-off in the science lab.
In the Pickford Public Schools District, voters allowed the Pickford Schools to borrow $290,000 for remodeling, re-equipping schools, equipping schools for instructional technology, as well as buy a bus.
The 1.1 mill issue passed 168-138 and will be outstanding for no more than three years.
DeTour Area Schools voters also renewed an 18 mill issue which will bring in $2,059,281 into the district.
The issue passed 150-31 and will allow the district to receive its revenue per pupil foundation allowance.
In other issues for Pickford, voters passed an emergency proposal by a 162-63 margin and a road proposal on a 147-78 count.

Maximum latewood density data from trees at thirteen temperature-sensitive sites along the northern treeline of North America are used to evaluate the spatial patterns of response to four known volcanic events just prior to the period of modern observations: in 1640, 1783, 1815 and 1835. A previously unknown event is also postulated for 1699. This tree-ring density parameter is used because it shows a stronger and more consistent short-term, temperature-related volcanic signal than ring width. Normalized density departures following these events vary in sign and magnitude from region to region, with the coldest summer conditions inferred for the Northwest Territories in 1641, Alaska in 1783, Quebec and Labrador in 1816 and the Northwest Territories in 1836. For these as well as other events, low density values are often among the most extreme on record at their respective locations. We suggest that these regional variations in tree growth reflect cooling induced by volcanism and the distribution of cooling influenced by atmospheric circulation patterns.

Carmen Rasmusen Herbert: Glamorized Disney princesses may not be affecting girls the way parents believe
Jacquelyn, age 8, said a princess is someone who is "always kind, and never mean to people."
Bridgette, 6, said princesses are "nice and pretty."
Six-year-old Hallie said, "A princess is someone who's brave. You are a princess by being someone's friend."
Mia, 7, said, "You have to be royal and kind to others."
Interesting. Most didn't mention "beauty" as a requirement.
Question: Who is your favorite princess and why?
Sarah, 7, said "Ariel, because she's a mermaid."
Evelyn, 3, said "All of the princesses!"
Hallie said Belle, because "she's smart!"
Jacquelyn said "Jasmine, because she's courageous."
Question: Do you think you're a princess? What do you have to do to become one?
Cozette, 6, giggled and said, "No! But you have to be nice to others. I am nice, but I would have to be even more nice (to be a princess)."
Jacquelyn said, "Yes." When asked if you have to be pretty, she quickly responded, "No! You don't have to be pretty. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, it matters how pretty you are on the inside!" (For the record, Jacquelyn is a very beautiful little girl — all of them are.)
Bridgette said, "Anybody can be a princess."
Hallie said, "You need to be nice to your friends and family."
Evelyn, my spunky little mini-me, said, "I don't want to be a princess because every time I try to wear their dresses, my hair gets caught and it hurts."
These sweet, honest answers both surprised and amazed me. Here is the core Disney demographic, ages 3 to 8, telling me what they think it means to be a princess. And very rarely did any of them mention dresses, makeup or high heels. And not ONE brought up Prince Charming!
To these little girls, being a princess means being a good person. They don't notice or pay attention to princesses being "sexualized." Could it be that, possibly, we parents are the only ones worried about such a thing? That our insecurities are being projected on our children?
Chapman argues that Merida was finally a princess that a girl could look up to. But I disagree.
What about Mulan, a girl who disguises herself as a boy and joins the army to fight in her father's place, clad in heavy armor throughout most of the film and learns to love herself exactly the way she is?
Or Cinderella, a poor housemaid taking care of her family with little complaint, who wears nothing but rags most of the film and never gives up hope?
Or Belle, who only becomes a princess after she learns how to truly love someone for who they are inside?
Or Pocahontas, who is willing to literally lay down her life to protect her friend, pleading understanding and tolerance for others whom we think are different?
I think Disney has always celebrated the "inner princess." In fact, in most Disney films, the big ball gowns and glass slippers aren't introduced until the end of the movie. It's the imperfect, "normal" girls we all fall in love with, right from the get-go, and the single most common trait the young girls relate to in being a princess is, in the words of my 6-year-old niece Cozette, "having a big heart."
I think we need to stop worrying and give our beautiful little princesses more credit. It's fun to play dress-up and look "pretty," but we don't need to worry that's all our girls will think of when they look at a Disney princess.
Chances are, their sweet innocent eyes see past the "perfect" and focus on the important qualities each unique Disney princess — and little girl — possess.
Just for fun, I asked my two boys their thoughts.
"Is Mommy a princess?" I asked with a wink.
"Not yet!" my 4-year-old replied.
Not exactly the answer I was hoping for!
"Who is a princess?"
"Grandma!" my 2-year-old declared.
Yes, indeed. Princesses take time, and I hope to one day be as "kind," "nice," "friendly" and "courageous" as my dear princess mother who continues to be an example of what being a queen in training is all about.

World exclusive* video premier: Simulating and stimulating climate hope
If you want a stirring stemwinder on climate action, here it is.
The speaker is my good friend Drew Jones, coauthor of this guest blog post ("Only the most ambitious emissions reductions under discussion within UNFCCC can achieve climate goals").
As you'll see, Drew took to heart my earlier "Advice to a young climate blogger [and public speaker]: Always use WWII metaphors.
*Technically, this can't be the world premiere since the video is online. But Drew has withheld posting it anywhere else so this is the official non-YouTube world premiere.
I'm not quite as optimistic as Drew is in this talk, but more good news keeps coming from key countries like China, India, and Japan. I am going to launch a multipart series on this important topic this week.
For more of Drew's work, click here.

I clikced on the here and Climate Progress reported
Sorry, no posts matched your criteria
[JR: Fixed! That darned "http://"]
positive stuff.
I hate to insert this on such a positive post.
It is easily within the remit of democracy, at the stage we're at within the big picture, to allow for the immediate nationalization of the coal plants and the implementation of a switch of technology to reduce their CO2.
This is an option that should be high on the debate now to show/demonstrate everyone how critical the situation is.
They should certain at a minimum remove fossil fuel subsidies immediately.
New Analysis Brings Dire Forecast Of 6.3-Degree Temperature Increase
Climate researchers now predict the planet will warm by 6.3 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century even if the world's leaders fulfill their most ambitious climate pledges..
global temperature rise is likely to occur even if industrialized and developed countries enact every climate policy they have proposed at this point. The increase is nearly double what scientists and world policymakers have identified as the upper limit of warming the world can afford in order to avert catastrophic climate change.
"As sobering as this report is, it is not the worst-case scenario. That would be if the world does nothing and allows heat-trapping pollution to continue to spew unchecked into the atmosphere."
"We face a situation where basically everybody has to do everything they can," MacCracken said.
That's a great talk but one question.
Joe, do you know what natural feedbacks he's got in his model? I don't see the CO2 levels peaking as low as he's claiming given what we now know about the feedbacks.
He has included all the very recent good political news but doesn't seem to have included the very bad recent scientific news on accelerating feedbacks. Just wondering….
Is it possible to be allergic to water?
Joe, For all these years I thought a "stemwinder" was a boring talk, so boring that it had people winding their watches in the hope/belief that the watch had stopped. "Surely, he can't have talked only ten minutes," the listener thinks. So your "stirring stemwinder" struck me as an oxymoron.
Googling the term I find that your use is more common, but the boring talk definition is also in wide use. What I did not discover is a convincing explanation as to why a rousing talk would have been called a stemwinder in the first place. The explanation I found was that stemwinder watches were all the rage when they were first invented…exciting like an exciting speech. That seems a stretch to me.
Ken Levenson asked about what's in the model behind the talk. All the assumptions are under "technical" at http://www.climateinteractive.org/simulations/C-ROADS/overview . In short, the version of C-ROADS shown in the talk here is calibrated to be consistent with the GCMs in the IPCC's AR4 such as MAGICC, and exclude such important tipping point feedback loops such as the albedo loop, the release of methane from permafrost, and decrease absorption of CO2 in warmer oceans. We hope to add those processes to C-ROADS as the quantification of their effects improves. Ken is correct that with those effects, it would be harder to reach climate goals. That said, the reductions shown in the simulation in the TEDx talk did NOT include non-CO2 GHGs. When we include those reductions, it makes reaching goals such as 2 degrees C more possible.

Heavier Rainstorms Ahead Due To Global Climate Change, Study Predicts
I saw this simulation played watching the Tallberg videos from early this summer. I was unimpressed then. I am depressed watching this now. This positive spinning, while it can garner an audience that is representative of the top quintile, such "success" does not mean that our consumption choices are proof of the consummed product's enlightenment.
Anyway, I graduated from high school in 1969. In 2069, should there still be free public education to graduate from, people who learn of what my generation did not do, expecting a rabbit to be pulled out of a hat, will find a certain irony in the "Rocky and Bullwinkle Show" vignettes that may yet exist then—were something other than a rabbit comes out of the hat.
I am a boomer raised in a military family of the WWII meme—but went to jail for the sake of my conscience when drafted during the Vietnam police action. I know, in ways that whatever-the-liberal-equivalent-of-a-conservative-chicken-hawk-is cannot imagine, what the hard work Drew talks about feels like. It cost you everything . . . and is worth it. Even so, sholdering this hard work is anything but a feel good experience.
This positive spin of this simplistic "solution" to the crisis—to the doom and gloom—is a disservice to the truth. Given Drew's clarifications, this marketing strategy amounts to little more than a false hope and Drew a false prophet. False prophets tend to experience a bad ending when the people learn the truth and turn against you (and Joe, this dynamic applies to the too rosy a cost projection of the scientifiocally inadequate ACES that you have created an echo chamber for here at CP).
Much of the "red line's" emissions are the consequence of the "blue line's" consumption and investment choices (to say nothing of the foreign policies that have made (enforced) what has been needed for the "miracle" of global capitalism's planetary cancer to be possible). Drew, if you want to make this simulation more truthful—and marketable to a global audience—factor in all of the blue line's footprint, not just what is generated within a nation's boundaries. When you make those adjustments, the game will play out very differently. And it is this difference that is behind the Common Dreams' article today about CAP signaling that Copenhagen will fail.
In addition, before glibly talking about the "green line" folk reforesting the planet's tropics, the economic dynamics have to change to fix what caused the deforestation in the first place: IMF and World Bank loans denominated in US dollars. Such were the US' iteration of creating banana republics that were the British model for wealth creation and planetary exploitation. "Green line" countries have had to sell whatever they can to raise US dollars to pay for the loans foisted on them by a US foreign policy that supported leaders in those countries who would sign on to the debt and remove the ones that wouldn't.
Fortunately, for justice, the collapse of the economic system of global capitalism is only flash frozen in its free fall. Even if the Fed succeeds in duping Congress into allowing it to create a second currency to "fix" the inflation of their monitorizing of debt has set for stage for and keep the collapse frozen a bit longer; or the G20 does so as central banker's front men, such freezing will be thawed by the heat of the systems systemic injustice. And global warming is justice's trump card. The "civil" society global capitalism has enabled cannot undue what it has done and retain what it thinks is positive as positive.
No matter how we get there (and I still advocate for doing so consciously and redress the four Constitutional crisis I commented about before), the paradigm shift we are headed into is that big a sea change. What we feel is trustworthy will be given up or taken from us. It is that simple. In the process we "blue" folk (and blue folk-wanabes) will find out a lot about our hubris and humility that will do us good.
Even the Guardian has a difficult time posting reality on the front page…
Front page heading…
Met Office warns of temperature rises
Environment page heading…
Met Office warns of catastrophic global warming in our lifetimes
Now were they keeping this a secret or did they have their heads so deep in their simulations that they missed what has happened in the past and what is going on RIGHT NOW before our very eyes?
Unchecked global warming could bring a severe temperature rise of 4C within many people's lifetimes, according to a new report for the British government that significantly raises the stakes over climate change.
"It's important to stress it's not a doomsday scenario, we do have time to stop it happening if we cut greenhouse gas emissions soon." Soaring emissions must peak and start to fall sharply within the next decade to head off a 2C rise, he said. To avoid the 4C scenario, that peak must come by the 2030s.
I find this hard to swallow. If the worst case scenario can hit 4C by 2060 then it seem a very remote possibility that we can limit it to 2C by the the end of the century whatever we do now.
If this is the case then we should recognize this and start planning for an outcome of 3+C. And plan we must for there is going to be chaos.
My computer is so old that the movie is completely invisible, but:
See: "Climate Code Red" by David Spratt and Philip Sutton:
Long term warming, counting feedbacks, is a least twice the short term warming.
We have already warmed the planet 1.4 degrees F since 1750, short term.
The long term effect is at least 2.8 degrees F.
The limit set by the president is 2 degrees F. We have already exceeded it.
560 ppm CO2 gets us 6 degrees C or 10.8 degrees F. We will hit 560 ppm before mid century. 6 degrees C is the for-sure extinction point for Homo Sapiens. Don't make any long term plans unless you pass a MUCH MUCH stronger bill than HR 2454 RIGHT NOW!

Diabetes Health Center
Type 1 Diabetes Prevention
The Trial to Reduce Diabetes in the Genetically At-Risk (TRIGR) is based on an intriguing but controversial idea. Both human and animal studies from Finland, which has among the highest rates of type 1 diabetes in the world, suggest that children who are breastfed exclusively from birth and are not exposed to proteins from cow's milk (in either infant formula or regular milk) may have a lower risk for developing type 1 diabetes.
"In studies done both in Toronto and Finland in mice, those mice that were fed the cow-milk protein were more likely to come down with diabetes than those fed a hydrolyzed formula [in which the proteins have been pre-digested and are not detected by the immune system]," says Peggy Franciscus, RN, coordinator for the U.S. arm of the TRIGR trial, based at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh.
"Based on that and looking at some of the Finnish studies, those children who were weaned early from breastfeeding -- say before 4 months -- and then given a cow-milk protein formula had a higher incidence of type 1 diabetes than those who were either exclusively breastfed past that three-month period, or were put on a formula with pre-digested protein.'
The theory, Franciscus tells WebMD, is that the whole protein is seen by the child's still-developing immune system as foreign, causing it to produce antibodies that attack both the protein and the child's own store of insulin producing beta-islet cells of the pancreas. The theory is supported by data from a small Finnish study that shows children who received cow-milk protein formulas had evidence in the bloodstream of islet-cell autoantibodies, which are thought to be a possible cause of type 1 diabetes.
"The beginning of the story is that people noticed that in Western Samoa, there was no type 1 diabetes. But when those people move to societies that use milk products -- and in Western Samoa until recently they did not -- they begin to get diabetes, and they do get it in Western Samoa now and they do consume milk proteins," explains Dupre, who is a principal investigator for the Canadian branch of the TRIGR study.
Similar observations have been made in the island of Sardinia, where until recently goat's milk but not cow's milk was common in the diet, and in Puerto Rico, where government-sponsored nutrition programs have increased the use of infant formulas based on cow's milk, Dupre tells WebMD.
The final results from the TRIGR study are not expected until about 2007.

Yes I know installing windows on the new 3TB iMac through bootcamp is not officially supported, but after doing some research it seemed that it was quite possible to do so anyways. Twocanoes seemed to have the best solution for going about this so I gave it a try
I seem to have run into a problem at the very last step. I successfully created the partitions as above, created a bootable usb with bootcamp on a different mac, and then when I go to select what drive to boot from, my bootable usb shows two different drive options (Windows and EFI). If I select Windows, I can successfully install it on to my partition, but no compatibility drivers seem to be installed with it (internet, graphics, bluetooth). If I boot from the EFI option, I make it to the windows installer, but then receive an error telling me:
"The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."
Any help on what I am doing wrong or what I might try will be greatly appreciated.

Women's Health
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Weight Gain
In this article
Most women at some point have to contend with weight gain. But for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), losing weight can become a constant struggle.
PCOS is the most common hormonal disorder in women of childbearing age and can lead to issues with fertility. Women who have PCOS have higher levels of male hormones and are also less sensitive to insulin or are "insulin-resistant." Many are overweight or obese. As a result, these women can be at a higher risk of diabetes, heart disease, sleep apnea, and uterine cancer.
Recommended Related to Women
Important It is possible that the main title of the report Vulvovaginitis is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Read the Vulvovaginitis article > >
If you have PCOS, certain lifestyle changes can help you shed pounds and reduce the disease's severity.
Why does polycystic ovary syndrome cause weight gain?
PCOS makes it more difficult for the body to use the hormone insulin, which normally helps convert sugars and starches from foods into energy. This condition -- called insulin resistance -- can cause insulin and sugar -- glucose -- to build up in the bloodstream.
High insulin levels increase the production of male hormones called androgens. High androgen levels lead to symptoms such as body hair growth, acne, irregular periods -- and weight gain. Because the weight gain is triggered by male hormones, it is typically in the abdomen. That is where men tend to carry weight. So, instead of having a pear shape, women with PCOS have more of an apple shape.
Abdominal fat is the most dangerous kind of fat. That's because it is associated with an increased risk of heart disease and other health conditions.
What are the risks associated with PCOS-related weight gain?
No matter what the cause, weight gain can be detrimental to your health. Women with PCOS are more likely to develop many of the problems associated with weight gain and insulin resistance, including:
- Type 2 diabetes
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Sleep apnea
- Infertility
- Endometrial cancer
Many of these conditions can lead to heart disease. In fact, women with PCOS are four to seven times more likely to have a heart attack than women of the same age without the condition.
Experts think weight gain also helps trigger PCOS symptoms, such as menstrual abnormalities and acne.

"I wanted to write this brief note and thank you for all the effort that Rose Auctions expended on the auction of our home in Perrysburg, Ohio. Although I was unfamiliar with the auction process, you guided us through this process beautifully. Also, numerous friends commented on the superb marketing of the home, its beauty and why people should show up at the auction. Throughout the showings you kept us appraised of the results of the showings, providing comforting conversation about the protection of the home, as well as the potential for future sale. I have had several people contact me with regard to your services and I could not be happier to provide our friends with your phone number."
"Beth and her team were outstanding from beginning to sold. They delivered everything they promised and more from excellent marketing to timely, complete updates on the process to a successful closing on our property. It was a pleasure to work with Beth Rose Auction and I feel confident that our property got the exposure and attention necessary to get the best offer possible. Thank you Beth Rose, you have a customer for life!"
"Very satisfied with the entire process with Beth Rose from start to finish. Personalized service, always prompt responses, smooth open houses, auction and closing. The selling price was the very best any realtor could do in a town where multiple houses have been on the market for years without being sold. We were very fortunate to have Beth Rose finally sell our completely restored Victorian home. She succeeded where no other realtor could produce a buyer after being listed for two years. Thanks to Beth and her highly competent staff."

Stockton a covering of snow still some falling and by the look of the sky more on its way.Gardening is on hold until my permafrost melts.
Who set me off on this rant???France, the only good thing about it is we have a dirty big stormy Chanel between us and yet now I am told that London has more French people than true Londoners, if France is so good why are they here?I had to cross the North Sea almost on a monthly basis at times and would land in Holland Belgium even Hamburg anywhere but France apart from using the night train from Calais to Austria but then I slept all the way.A week in Paris with Joan turned into a weekend and move on, she thought it dirty noisy and simply mad, she covered her eye's in traffic, so did I and I was driving. We ended that week in a lovely Chateau although she would have gone straight back on the ferry or to her better still Holland, she could nip into Northern France and spend hours in those little craft shops in the lace making area.My Son is winding up the farm and heading for France soon with the horses, I think they are mad but it is their life, he said you can come and stay all winter dad, "what" some of the posters on here say it is colder than England right now, I rest my case.
Had Him ten years G/Grandma and loved him he would take on anything big or small if they tried anything. We walked miles he kept me fit and he loved the Lake District we went often because a lot of the Hotels allowed small dogs in the room. We would walk the lakes and boat ride back, now that he did love, up the gang plank straight up the Bows and onto the seat looking out the way we were going. Some of the boat men got to know him and made a fuss of him. They would announce on the Speaker, "Captain Benji is in charge of the boat you can see him looking for sharks or torpedo's", he was great fun and my last dog, parting with them is almost as bad as parting with a loved partner.
G/Grandma, I had a West Highland Terrier that did the same job as your dogs, we were over run by cats before he arrived and that soon changed.One big black who could manure the garden in one go decided to try his luck, a brief quarrel and he lost scattered up the fence and sat looking at Benji, who turned walked back then took a flying charge and leaped up the fence just missing the cat who with the bounce of the fence shot up in the air turning somersaults and vanished into next doors shrubbery never to be seen again. benji got well rewarded.

Welcome Daughter join the rest as I seem to come across as dad for some reason. Even the new recruits saw me in that capacity, "Sir the drill Sergeant shouts at me and his lanquage", tears running down their cheeks. I know lad or lass, his job is to keep you alive, it is not hate, he loves you and fails if you end up in a box.I love and play music and when in the mood I get in the mood with Glen Millar's in the mood and all the tunes I danced to. String of Pearls being a big favourite."Hey I also loved Al Bowley and Chick Henderson, deathly silence then a chorus of who the H@#@ are they, two brilliant crooners one killed in the London Bombing, Bing Crosby said Chick was the greatest crooner ever he came from Hartlepool, the toilets down the yard with no doors you had to be a singer.
Lyn, are you with some TV programme set up. I was contacted tonight by the local History section asking me if I will tell some of my stories about dancing to a network TV unit. Been there done that with the BBC so the answer is no.GI's had gone off to the Pacific war still going on when I started going to the big boys dances, we had Canadian's from the local Bomber Squadrons to compete with, great lads and Stockton was little Canada for them, we took them home for meals and some home comfort after all most were not that much older than me, My parents danced in competition and took me all dolled up as the baby sitter would not look after the wild boy as she called me. Older women got me up to dance between the competitions and I was a fast learner. We had school hall and church hall dances, always crowded with boys and girls. I became probably the youngest MC ever at the Cadet Dances once a month, "Marjory will dance with me as we lead off the Chrysanthemum Waltz" and as the band struck up we would really lead off the dancers young and old until the circle was formed, yes I could dance and had no shortage of partners, in the Palais many of them married missing husbands in the forces, I was safe, maybe. The lads said I could smell a dance from fifty miles away and danced in many of the largest halls, London Blackpool and lots in-between plus of course Bridgend (I put that one in for Gardening Grandma).No dancing these days it would be the Zimmer frame Waltz very slowly, well not quite that bad but I did think of forming a dance group from those little electric scooters that yap at your heels in Town Centres. Like the pied piper of Hamle I would lead them into the river.
My post name came after the best of three falls with the sign up page when nothing I put in would pass muster, having brought up some pictures seeing one that brought back memories I put it in and bang was signed up.Cannot get an avatar on so gave up trying. Frank is one of my real names, does that make me shy and retiring???
Dmball, I saw some very beautiful women among the Nubian's, the men tall and athletic all colourful, the Egyptian women we never saw they were covered head to foot back then although it seems more relaxed now. We also knew that there were many differing groups among the Arab's the Bedouin we met often out in Sinai were hard people and had to be. The Coastal area Alexandria Port Said and Tewfic we had mainly Greek and Italian populace with a scattering of Armenians, it was a mix of people probably like London now.Sea gulls are the same where ever they are, they sit on the rails of the Quay in Whitby and snatch what they can, the same at Redcar Saltburn and Seaton all on our coast as I said we are born with one foot in the north sea.Enjoy your holiday as my Daughter and grandchildren did, they loved it but it was before the troubles began.
Maud, get a shot gun that scatters the little b err blighters, you can stick chewing gum in the holes made in the cabinets, it also gets rid of mice as well as the cats. "Oops" sorry that is me definitely not a cat lover talking, I would feed the mice.
Of well we are all different. Frank.
Dmball, We normally ate a breakfast just before the sun came racing up (now that was a sight I never got sick of watching, one minute black next minute sun).Tiffin was a very light snack around eleven and then if possible we got in any shade we could, not easy with the sun directly above and tried to rest. The evening meal was after sundown so the Kite Hawks only had the Tiffin to go at and they would literally fly under a stretched canopy snatch the food from your plate and be gone, it was so fast you only realised after they had gone. So yes they will have your food unless they have nets strung.Supper if in base would be many bottles of Stella and if out patrolling a bottle we had hidden in an ammo locker.I was never bothered by mosquito's though we slept under nets anyway, out on guard we would wear long trews and sleeved shirts, the lads would be batting the things off and I was never bothered by them. The same in Scotland, when they were all being eaten alive by midges I was always clear of them.We actually got on well with the people and they would give us information about the hard liners who they did not want in the villages, in return we turned a blind eye to some things and did not wreck everything searching. I had meals with some of the contractors in their homes and the food was good. I got to a banquet in Port Said and that was an eye opener and then some. A local return group have asked me to go back with them a couple of times but too many bad memories plus I never go back to most places as it is never the same.

In a season full of close calls and what-ifs, the ACU Wildcats suffered one more such loss Saturday afternoon as they dropped a 59-56 decision to Incarnate Word in the season finale for both teams at Moody Coliseum.
The loss ends the Wildcats' first season at the NCAA Division I level at 11-20 overall and 2-12 in the Southland Conference. The Cardinals, meanwhile, finish their first season at the Division I level at 21-6 and 9-5.
The Wildcats had a chance to send the game to overtime, but in a fitting end to their season, Julian Edmonson's 3-point attempt at the buzzer bounced off the front rim, sending the Wildcats home with their 20th loss of the season.
ACU trailed Incarnate Word by as many as nine points midway through the second half before James Pegues scored eight points in a three-minute span t help the Wildcats pull to within 53-49 with 4:31 to play.
Edmonson got the Wildcats to within two points at 55-53 on a layup with 1:16 to play, and after a layup by Kyle Hittle pushed the lead back to four points, Parker Wentz answered with a three-point play to make it a 57-56 game with 31 seconds to play.
ACU's Michael Grant fouled Sam Burmeister with 24 seconds to play, and the UIW freshman missed the front end of the one-and-one with ACU's Austin Cooke grabbing the rebound. Wentz brought the ball up the floor and drove into the clogged middle of the lane where his shot was blocked by Anthony Horton with Hittle grabbing the rebound.
Hittle made both free throws with just a little less than five seconds to play, setting up ACU's last-gasp at tying the game. Edmonson took the inbounds pass after a UIW timeout and raced up the floor, firing up a 3-pointer that missed the mark just before the buzzer sounded.
Wentz led the Wildcats with 17 points as he shot 5 of 12 from the field, including 2 of 7 from 3-point range. Pegues came off the bench to score 12 as he and Wentz were the only two Wildcats to finish in double figures.

Oh. Hail. No.
The Arizona Cardinals survived another Hail Mary touchdown pass by Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers and went on to beat the Packers in overtime, 26-20, in a divisional playoff game at University of Phoenix Stadium.
Carson Palmer dished a five-yard shovel pass to Larry Fitzgerald for the winning touchdown as the red-clad crowd went berserk, and the Cardinals advanced to next weekend's NFC title game to play the winner of Sunday's Seattle-Carolina game.

I know companies who have 3 websites with different name and URL. All these 3 websites are ranked in the first and 2nd page of google search results, and they don't let other companies share the first place and have clean competition. So, is it an illegal use to report these sites to google? Thanks
No, it's perfectly legal, this occurs because the company has different websites for different countries - they may not be VERY different but are different enough that google ranks them separately.
The only law in question here is civil, not criminal so nothing is outright illegal.

Belgian corporate finance in a European perspective
When analysing corporate finance, it is necessary to take account of various factors which may cause significant disparities between firms, such as their size and their sector of activity. Taking account of the size aspect, by neutralising sectoral disparities, there are few differences between the debt levels of small, medium-sized and large firms. Conversely, the debt structure appears to depend on the firm's size : small firms are more dependent on bank loans. That is confirmed by the high degree to which they make use of credit facilities. Nonetheless, surveys indicate that access to finance is not a major constraint for SMEs, be they Belgian or European : they perceive access to finance, and more specifically access to bank finance, as relatively easy. In contrast, the financial structure of firms differs widely between sectors, and depends to a great extent on the associated intrinsic activity and the scale of the investments. Sectors with high investment ratios, such as the transport and communication sector or the energy sector, mainly use long-term finance. Ample equity capital enables them to maintain a balanced financial situation. Conversely, highly labour-intensive sectors, such as construction or trade, display much higher debt-to-equity ratios ; their debts are mainly short term and they make extensive use of trade credit. A more detailed analysis of the manufacturing sector also reveals differences of financial structure between firms which are classed as innovative and those which are not. In particular, if the chemical industry is excluded, the firms in the innovative sectors make less use of bank loans and record more short-term debt than firms in non-innovative sectors. That may reflect the lenders' desire to limit the risk incurred, particularly by using the threat of non-renewal of the loan to encourage the manager to behave efficiently. The qualitative surveys appear to indicate that the financial constraint is felt more by innovative firms than by SMEs in general. That expresses a financing need specific to innovative SMEs. At the early stages in their development, they depend almost exclusively on the entrepreneur's personal resources and those of his friends and family, and venture capital only takes over in the later stages. Finally, as regards the financing structure, a comparison between Belgian firms and their European counterparts, after neutralising the specific effects of size and sector, indicates that the former issue larger amounts of capital. Abundant intra-group financial flows and a favourable institutional context are conducive to that situation.
