This may or may not be an easy question, as I'm somewhat uninformed in the networking side of computer science.
I own a rented server with a static ip address. Is there a way that I can forward requests from it to my computer to setup a LAN network of sorts over the internet.
Specifically, there is a program I would like to use that requires LAN (you enter an IP to connect to). Is it possible to setup my server in a way that users could connect to my server's ip, which would then forward it to my home computer (I'm fine with setting up my home computer with programs that would allow this) that could host?
Is this possible? Thanks.

CpG islands (CGIs) are regions enriched in the dinucleotide CpG; they constitute the promoter of about 60% of mammalian genes. In cancer cells, some promoter-associated CGIs become heavily methylated on cytosines, and the corresponding genes undergo stable transcriptional silencing. Hypermethylated CGIs attract methyl-CpG-binding proteins (MBPs), which have been shown to recruit chromatin modifiers and cause transcriptional repression. These observations have led to the prevalent model that methyl-CpG-binding proteins are promoter-proximal transcriptional repressors. Recent discoveries challenge this idea and raise a number of questions. Here we discuss the following issues: what are other possible roles for the known MBPs? Why are these proteins not essential in mammals? Are there other MBPs left to discover? Could CpG methylation be nonessential?

Delightful Thai Cooking based on 0 ratings. 2 reviews.
I use this cookbook often with some minor modifications. The receipes are simple, but delicious and easy to prepare. I vastly prefer it to the multiple step, with difficult to find ingredients and measurements in grams of my other Thai cookbooks.
This book is overly basic and if you know how to cook any kind of food meaning chopping or preparing, this book is too basic for you. Also, the dishes were very bland and lacked real Thai flavor or texture. Price may be decent but there are others this cheap that are much better. Don't bother spending your money on this as there are many other better Thai cookbooks than this one.

Nanny Nickels
Imploding monorail? Shrinking city revenues? No, Seattle mayor Greg Nickels knows what the real issue facing our city is: Strip clubs!
Today, Nickels proposed a whole new raft of regulations on topless establishments, which are already effectively banned under a 16-year-old "temporary" strip-club moratorium that's being challenged in court. (An aspiring strip-club operator is claiming that the single-purpose moratorium amounts to an illegal de facto ban on a legal business.)
The new rules would require bright lights throughout strip clubs; prohibit strippers from taking tips directly ("tips for dancers must be placed in a container provided by the club); and impose "a four-foot rule for lap dances," according to Nickels' syntactically tortured press release.
From Nickels' statement: "I don't want strip clubs opening up in our neighborhoods. … As a city, we have a clear duty to protect our neighborhoods from activities that aren't appropriate near homes, schools and churches."
One question, Greg: What strip clubs?

Bottle falls out on jumps
By Wes
from Sand Springs, OK
I ran over a speed bump and my water bottle fell out. I am going to put a few thin strips of grip tape on the inside of this cage to hopefully make it grip the bottle better. I actually have two of these, a black and a blue one. The blue one seems to be made out of a softer plastic and is more durable.

Depends on your usage!
By Koach
from NE Ohio
I've been using Profile Stryke cages with Camelback bottles since 2006/7(?) for commuting including dirt/gravel roads, group rides, some competition, and have installed them on my kids bike without issue. Do NOT use them on MTB's as they will not hold your bottle for very long. Well, all was good until a week ago when I discovered a crack on the forward mounted cage of my CAAD10. It has been on various frames so perhaps I overtorqued during installation? Regardless, it was still being used, I just happen to find a crack at the mount after noticing it was getting a little weak, and ended up removing it as a precaution. I initially thought is was just due to old age fatigue...until taking a closer look.I was just getting ready to order two more when I noticed all the negative reviews from recent posters. Not sure if Profile switched manufacturer's or material, but I will definitely keep an eye on the new ones.I'm all about quality pieces but simply cannot justify the ridiculous price of carbon cages, especially those with a label, added with the fact that there's no 'give' to carbon cages and can be a pain to use.You can buy 12 of these at the price of some carbon cages...I've also mounted these on other things such as lawn tractors!
Cheap and Looks Good
By Style Points
from Sacramento, CA
Its hard to find a yellow bottle cage in a sleek design. I got these for my Black & Yellow Trek Madone and took off the logos with acetone, so they are all yellow. They make the bike look better than carbon cages that cost 6 times as much. One of mine did crack after a year or so, but it still holds a water bottle. I figure at this price, I can afford to buy a few spares.

Don't even think about it
By Wolfmanatee
from Edina, MN
Don't even think about buying these. I purchased two, attached them, and within a week both had broken at the exact same spot. They are unsightly, cheaply made, and you will end up returning them when they break. Seriously, just don't do it.
Snaps easily
By TC
from Philadelphia, PA
Lasted a month or so when the top rib snapped unexpectedly, it still held my bottle okay though since it was mounted vertically. Short while after, the bottom rib broke and sent my water bottle tumbling on the ground. Second cage broke all at once resulting in the same tumbling. On the plus side, my water bottle has proven very durable! These cages not so much, they snap very easily. I've given it enough chances, looking elsewhere.
Merchant response: Please return your broken cages for a refund, our returns department will be happy to help you out.

State's 'Environmentally Sound' Keystone Assessment Done By Firms Linked To TransCanada, Exxon Mobil, BP And Kochs
Yesterday, we found out via Inside Climate News and Brad Johnson over at Grist that the environmental impact statement the State Department just released on the Keystone XL pipeline was written by a private consulting firm being paid by the pipeline's owner.
This obviously raises concerns about conflicts of interest with the report itself, but it also highlights the problems with turning government work and analysis over to private firms with possible financial ties to other private entities who may be affected by that work and analysis — a phenomenon that's been underway since the 1990s.
State's report, which found that the pipeline was "unlikely to have a substantial impact on the rate of development in the oil sands," and will "not likely result in significant adverse environmental effects," was written by Environmental Resources Management (ERM). Several years ago, Cardno Entrix, another private consultancy, was contracted by TransCanada to handle the State Department's initial draft of the environmental impact statement, the Department's hearings on the pipeline, and even its Keystone XL website.
As Johnson reported, ERM was paid "an undisclosed amount under contract to TransCanada" for the assessment:
The documents from the ERM-TransCanada agreement are on the State Department's website, but payment amounts and other clients and past work of ERM are redacted. In the contract documents, ERM partner Steven J. Koster certifies that his company has no conflicts of interest. He also certifies that ERM has no business relationship with TransCanada or "any business entity that could be affected in any way by the proposed work" (notwithstanding the impact statement contract itself). In a cover letter, Koster promises State Department NEPA Coordinator Genevieve Walker that ERM understands "the need for an efficient and expedited process to meet the demands of the desired project schedule."
An investigation by Inside Climate News finds that ERM's report draws from work done by other oil industry contractors, Ensys Energy and ICF International.
According to State's report, the department "directed the preparation," but the project's manager is the only government official actually listed on the cover page.
Inside Climate News reported Ensys has worked with ExxonMobil, BP and Koch Industries, though Ensys president Martin Tallet emphasized the consulting firm has also worked with the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy, and the World Bank. "We don't do advocacy," Tallett told Inside Climate News, pointing out that EnSys employees acted as expert witnesses for various state water agencies and against the oil industry in court cases on groundwater contamination from MBTE, a gasoline additive. "If we were the pet of government agencies or oil companies, the other side wouldn't come to us." ICF International declined to comment on the Keystone report.
According to both David Driesen, a law professor at Syracuse University and a former attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, and Joel A. Mintz, a law professor at Florida's Nova Southeastern University, conflicts of interest can be difficult to avoid in practice, whatever the official statements:
"I think the question of conflict of interest is a legitimate one," Driesen said. If consulting firms are "used to working for industry clients, it's possible they would subtly orient their analysis in a certain way, and that could be reflected" in the document.…
"The marketplace and ethics sometimes collide," said Mintz, who is a member scholar at the Center for Progressive Reform, which favors green policies. "If their livelihood comes from consulting for the oil and gas industry, I think it would be expected they'd be sympathetic to their future and past clients. They'll want to keep consulting."
As Inside Climate News points out, State's Keystone report is actually part of a larger trend, spanning more than a decade, of government farming out work it used to do in-house to private contractors. While the Defense Department has driven the majority of the contracting the United States government does with private firms, the practice ramped up in other departments significantly in the 1990s with the arrival of then-Vice President Al Gore's "Reinventing Government" initiative. Since then, the federal workforce has shrunk as the contractor workforce has grown.
According to a report by the Center for Public Integrity, the government was spending $200 billion a year on private contractors as of 2003. A scholar at the Brookings Institution named Paul Light called this workforce the "shadow government," estimating its size in 1999 at 5.6 million. Government agencies now routinely outsource reports like State's environmental impact statement because they don't have the staff or resources to handle the work in-house, and given the ubiquity of consulting firms' work with industry, it's difficult to find a company that doesn't have industry ties.
Kathleen Clark — a practicing lawyer and law professor at Washington University in St. Louis, and an expert on government ethics — told Inside Climate News that, "In general, the government has rather strict standards for conflict of interest for its own employees, and in general when it outsources work to contractors, it doesn't outsource those standards."

Idiocracy strikes again.
So that's what happened. It was hard to believe that the state department itself really wrote such an obviously biased report. Unfortunately, maybe there are not many companies doing this kind of work about energy that actually give much weight to climate change.
They should get Greenpeace, 350.org, and the Sierra Club to update the report for them.
"it's possible they would subtly orient their analysis in a certain way, and that could be reflected" in the document.…"
Subtly? The minute this report came out, I asked my wife, "How in the hell is the State Department qualified to write a report like this? Why isn't the EPA doing it?"
I didn't know about the pervasive use of private contractors. I wonder if it is cost effective, all this privatization, or just a boondoggle for connected "consulting firms."
You'd think the Canadian crooks and the State Department would wise up. During the last go-round, all sorts of these corrupt practices were exposed through freedom of information acts, etc.
If will be interesting to see if any of the MSM picks this up.
Did the corporate shills writing for the State note that Keystone will act as an idiot a wick for DPRK? "Furious over sanctions, NKorea vows to nuke US" (AP; google.com/hostednews, 3/7/13).
Amazing after the blunder of the first report (written by TransCanada's primary consultant) and PR embarrassment (part of the cause of the XL delay) – the Obama administration said "sign me up for another round".
They must get a lot of campaign money from these guys to make this worth it.
When they say "not likely result in significant adverse environmental effects"
they are comparing to other ways the tar sands might be developed.
They are not comparing to just not mining the tar sands at all.
Maybe the pres can keep tabs on converting the living biosphere of boreal forest into toxic waste pits and wildlife deathtraps with Predator or Reaper Drones. Welcome to the global gas chamber.
Sounds like Deepwater Horizon all over again. When will people realize that privatization doesn't improve anything and only result in more largess sloshing around on the stock market. Largess for CEOs and companies that already sit on those profits, doing no good for the US economy. Hmmm??
Well observed, and the genocidists have cleverly incorporated the crematoria, as well.
You could get a lot of honest public servants doing the research for that amount of loot, MW
The states that the Keystone pipeline would cross should be doing their own due diligence and risk assessment. It is clearly not a task that can be trusted to the pipeline developer or to the federal government. If enough states find out that the risks from a potential pipeline are not acceptable, then they should clearly speak with a unified voice to Washington DC.
Will Canada's Proposed Tar Sands Oil Pipeline Muck Up Its Pacific Coast?
North Dakota and South Dakota want the pipeline.
Nebraska has approved the pipeline.
Kansas wants the pipeline.
There are no states that do not want the pipeline.
Wasn't the FIRST EIS found to be done by those with a conflict of interest? Is this a "fool me twice" moment? Is there no learning? Or ethics? Or shame? Tssk Tssk…
Yeah, really; but their figuring of "insignificant" is interesting: An environmental policy analyst who does reports for the Congressional Research Service, Richard Lattanzio, said in his opening summary of "Canadian Oil Sands: Life-Cycle Assessments of Greenhouse Gas Emissions" (June 2012):
"…discounting the final consumption phase of the life-cycle assessment (which can contribute up to 70%-80% of Well-to-Wheel emissions), Well-to-Tank (i.e., "production") GHG emissions are, on average, 72%-111% higher for Canadian oil sands crude than for the weighted average of transportation fuels sold or distributed in the United States."
This is from the State Dept. assessment executive summary, under Key Findings:
"WCSB crudes are more GHG intensive than the other heavy crudes they would replace or displace in US refineries, and emit an estimated 17% more GHGs on a life-cycle basis than the average barrel of crude oil refined in the US. in 2005."
It was pointed out to me that using life-cycle assessments when comparing and citing production differences is not appropriate and tends to make the differences appear smaller than comparing just the well-to-tank emissions, as Lattanzio more responsibly did above in his opening summary. We've been unable to find any similar clarification in the State Dept. assessment, but on page 71 of Appendix W, the report goes into a long attempt to justify their doing it the way they did. This issue might be good to include in letters to the President, Kerry, etc.
Camburn wrote: "There are no states that do not want the pipeline."
Translation from troll-speak:
There are no Koch-owned Republican governors or Koch-owned Republican-dominated state legislatures that do not do want the pipeline.
Meant to mention that from what I'm told, the "consumptive phase" emissions from burning refined oil from all sources being compared are virtually the same. Although it's useful to know the well-to-wheel emissions for other purposes, when arguing insignificantly higher emissions from production of tar sands WCSB crudes, it's misleading to use a method that makes the percentage appear small and not straightforwardly give the well-to-tank (production) percentages, as Lattanzio did.
Good question Anne. Yes, the first EIS (and first PR disaster to help make the delay – since they were forced to write a new one) was that the primary consultant for TransCanada (the pipeline folks) wrote the environmental impact statement for the State Department (setting up a slam dunk approval – till the blatant conflict of interest came to light). I believe it was just a single guy that did the first one. Maybe they got two people this time. ;-)
The lack of ethics, shame and the lack of fear of the public seeing this and taking the administration to the woodshed, is astounding and so brazen.
Obviously those same good folks in the Administration were trying to set this one up for a slam dunk approval – again.
You're right, Solar and Mulga. The country and our leaders (including in Canada) have lost their minds. We will have good seats for the upcoming horror movie, coming to an outdoor theater near you.
The West Coast Gateway pipeline ain't happening. First Nations will stop it, with help from people like us.
Hey Mike:
Your description echoes one I used about our 'normalized collective insanity' that I wrote yesterday for the HUffington Post. Please check it out:
Can anyone post a link to substantive, data-based responses to the EIS's conclusion that non-approval of the KXL won't make much difference as to how much these oil sands are mined?
No responses so far to this request, asked for a third time on this blog.
When you haven't got a strong substantive case, attack the process — is an old strategic maxim that may be in play here.
Perhaps a strong substantive response to the EIS analysis will surface sometime reasonably soon.
This story should be the first words out of all of our mouths on Keystone. This is an outrage. We need to bring this up every time we talk about the issue. I am forwarding this to everyone I work with on this issue.
The Economist, Feb. 16 cover story, "The missing $20 trillion."
He, she or it is quite fluent, though, don't you think?

VR Bonus Level 2
Thanks for supporting Vampire Rain. Ready for another gathering mission? Play as Duane Hanson in this bonus level to see how fast you can pick up all required equipment for your mission. Difficulty: 3 stars. Requires full retail game.
Price: Free
Every year, millions of people around the world simply disappear without a trace. And in most case, they are never heard from again.
Up until the discovery of the creatures known as Nightwalkers, these individuals were classified as missing. After realizing that the missing were actually victims, it took mankind almost a hundred more years to understand the true nature of the Nightwalkers threat.
Lacking an effective deterrent against the nightwalkers, mankind choose a non-violent, passive course of action. But as the Nightwalkers attacks escalated, this nonresistant stance was no longer acceptable. In the United States, the American Information Bureau (AIB) secretly established a special combat unit for eliminating the Nightwalker menace.
In an effort to reduce Nightwalker population, the AIB has targeted a city located on the West Coast. It's an urban maze where streets reek with the cloyingly sweet aroma of Nightwalker infestation.
Tonight those streets are clouded by falling rain, which will dampen the senses of Nightwalkers. It's a night where a battle is about to unfold...One mankind cannot afford to lose!

I've made these 2 times within 1 week and my husband loves these as well as does his coworkers----I added a little more peanut butter as well as crushed peanuts to the recipe
Easily 5 stars! I especially liked that these were not the traditional heavy dense peanut butter cookies you usually find. They were light and crispy. They melt in your mouth. I made half as is and added chocolate chips to the other half. Yum! It's going to take a lot of will power to keep from eating all of them before the weekend is over. Thank you for posting!

By T. Anthony BellFebruary 7, 2013
FORT LEE, Va. (Feb. 7, 2013) -- Like all histories, that of the Black American is storied, complicated and filled with triumph and tragedy. The following vignettes are reflections on the diversity of the past and how Black Americans have impacted the present.
1. The intent of President Harry S. Truman's Executive Order 9981was to end segregation in the U.S. Armed Forces, not only on the grounds that it was inefficient but it was the right thing to do. EO 9981, however, didn't solve issues related to race but rather laid a foundation for better race relations and subsequently a more effective fighting force.
It must be pointed out that Truman took an enormous risk in signing the order. A proclaimed son of Confederates, Truman was also a progressive who was moved by reports of violence committed against black veterans who fought for their country during World War II. He knew it was the right decision and stood by it, just as he did when he ousted the popular war hero Gen. Douglas McArthur. It was with the same sense of audacity that he issued the order on July 26, 1948. The ground breaking policy caused an uproar among the ranks. The president, however, was undaunted yet patient and understanding. He realized that such a policy couldn't immediately change attitudes and had enough forethought to make accommodations for an orderly, reasonable transition. He was insistent as well. When the Secretary of the Army failed to follow his directives a year after the order was signed, he was forced to retire. It was not until 1953, the final year of Truman's administration, that the armed forces seemed well on its way to integration. The last all-black units were gone by 1954, roughly six years after EO 9981 was signed.
2. Jackie Robinson was not the first African-American to break the color barrier in major league baseball. It is fact if it's applied to the modern era. The absolute distinction belongs to Moses Fleetwood Walker. In 1884, the Ohio native played catcher for the Toledo Blue Stockings of the American Association, a major league at that time that often competed with the National League for baseball dominance.
3. Joe Louis is best remembered as the "Brown Bomber," a boxer who possessed unparalleled physical powers that led him to defeat German Max Schmeling in a 1938 bout that united the country and came to symbolize America's resolve to stand firm against a growing Nazi presence.
But there was more to Louis than his punching power. He enlisted in the Army in January 1942, and the service employed the Alabama native to recruit blacks and to boost morale among all troops. Louis experienced racism while he was a Soldier but was grounded enough to look at the big picture, once remarking," Lots of things wrong with America, but Hitler ain't going to fix them." He also was conscious of his status and used it to better the lives of blacks serving in the military. Louis helped baseball great Jackie Robinson and others to gain entrance into officer candidate school. In 1952, the retired boxer, also an avid golfer, challenged a whites-only policy to play in a Professional Golf Association tournament being held in San Diego. He rounded up supporters and submitted a petition to the governor of California. The governor sided with Louis, and the PGA allowed him to play, making the Brown Bomber the first black to play in a PGA-sanctioned event.
4. When Africans arrived on the coasts of America in the early 1600s, much of their culture was systematically repressed by the institution of slavery and servitude. The Gullah, who live in communities situated along the sea islands of South Carolina and Georgia, are an exception. Aspects of its culture -- language, art, music and agricultural methods -- still exist today, making it possibly the only African culture left intact after the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade.
Unlike most African-Americans, the Gullah can trace its roots back to specific regions of Africa. For example, the Gullah's sweetgrass basketry is similar to coiled baskets made by the Senegalese, and cloth made from its strip looms bare resemblance to the cloth made by traditional strips looms used throughout Africa. Furthermore, many of the words used in Gullah communities are variations of words still used in Africa today.
How did the Gullah culture survive when virtually all others were extinguished? The history books provide a clear explanation: in the South Carolina and Georgia low country, as it is called, rice was the chief crop. To produce it, slaves were given some measure of autonomy during the rainy seasons due to harsh conditions and diseases such as Malaria and yellow fever. Slave owners tended to live elsewhere and left management operations up to slave overseers who were much more lenient in their management practices.
Today, the Gullah culture has somewhat evolved, but modern threats such as land development and economic conditions have forced some descendents to leave. Successful legislature to preserve and protect the sea island culture has given some measure of assurance the Gullahs will continue to survive.
5. Rosa Parks is often called the mother of the modern civil rights movement because she refused in November 1955 to yield her seat to a white on a segregated Montgomery, Ala., bus. Her act of defiance led to the Montgomery Bus Boycott that brought the public bus system to its knees and was the catalyst behind further protests and demonstrations that pushed the movement into high gear.
Though Parks' actions were momentous, they were not the first. In fact, at least three other women performed the same actions with less-celebrated results. The first, 27-year-old Irene Morgan of Baltimore refused to give up her seat to a white couple on an interstate Greyhound bus 11 years earlier in Middlesex County. The case went before the Supreme Court, and it ruled in her favor.
The case of Sarah Louise Keys followed. A private in the Women's Army Corps, she took an interstate bus from Fort Dix, N.J., headed toward her North Carolina home on the night of Aug. 1, 1952. At a stop in Roanoke Rapids, N.C., she refused to surrender her seat to a Marine and was eventually arrested and convicted. Her case was brought before the courts and the Interstate Commerce Commission. The latter ruled in 1955 that actions against Key violated the Interstate Commerce Act that prohibited segregation.
Another woman, Claudette Colvin, was merely a 15-year-old when she defied orders to give up her seat on a Montgomery public bus in March of 1955. She too was arrested and convicted and her case was also handled by the NAACP, which took it all the way to the Supreme Court in the Browder v. Gayle case. The court on May 11, 1956, ruled in favor of Colvin, but the NAACP decided not to promote the case because of Colvin's age and the fact that she was young, unwed and pregnant, which violated the social norms of the time.
6. Gen. Benjamin O. Davis Jr., Tuskegee Airman and first black general in the U.S. Air Force, didn't start his military career as an airman. The son of Brig. Gen. Benjamin O. Davis Sr., the Army's first black general, earned a degree at West Point, underwent infantry training and followed his father's footsteps into the Buffalo Soldiers (24th Infantry Regiment). Most noteworthy was Davis' West Point experience in which classmates rarely spoke to or dined with him and where he roomed alone for the duration of his four years there. The academy tested the depths of Davis' commitment to his cause, but he emerged more determined to prove his worth and would go on to command the Airmen in World War II. More than 30 years after Davis' retirement, President Bill Clinton acknowledged his sacrifices, promoting him to the rank of four-star general. "General Davis," he said, "is here today as living proof that a person can overcome adversity and discrimination, achieve great things, turn skeptics into believers; and through example and perseverance, one person can bring truly extraordinary change." Davis died in 2002.
7. The Tuskegee Airmen was arguably the most well-known black military unit of World War II. Comparatively, the Army's 761st Tank Battalion and its exploits are quite obscure. Called the "Black Panthers" way before the militant group adopted the name, the 761st became the first black tankers to fight in any war, enduring 183 consecutive days of operational employment in the European theater. Much of that time was marked by intense combat, and the Panthers often fought alongside white infantry units even though the armed forces were still segregated. Jackie Robinson was a member of the 761st prior to being kicked out for refusing to give up his seat on a bus during training. Another member, Staff Sgt. Rueben Rivers, was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 1997. Twenty-four Panthers were killed and 88 were wounded during the war. The unit's motto was "Come Out Fighting."
8. In the annals of African American history, there have been many efforts on behalf of blacks to escape their conditions in America. One during the American Revolution, centered on an offer by the British to grant freedom to any blacks who would join its ranks. Roughly 100,000 freemen and slaves moved to the British side and many wound up in southeastern Canada after the war. Furthermore, thousands of slaves who used the Underground Railroad to escape bondage also found their fates in Canada. Today, thousands of black Canadians can trace their heritage back to the United States.
Another effort of note, organized by the American Colonization Society starting in 1816, was based on the premise that slavery couldn't be sustained in America and blacks could lead better lives in Africa. With the help of the U.S. government, ships carrying mostly free black emigrants began sailing for the shores of Africa in 1821, eventually establishing the country of Liberia. The voyages continued until the 1860s. By that time, more than 11,000 blacks had carved out a civilization in the land of their ancestors. J.J. Roberts, who spent part of his boyhood in Petersburg, Va., became Liberia's first president in 1847.
9. For the most part, slavery destroyed the ancestral lineage of African- Americans by the millions. As a result, many find it is quite difficult to trace family lines beyond three or four generations. That's not the case for the descendents of Abdu-l-Rahman Ibrahim Ibn Sori or Abdul Rahman. An African prince, he was brought to America in 1788. His talents were such that he became a trusted overseer of slaves on the Natchez, Miss., plantation of Thomas Foster. During his time at the plantation, Abdul- Rahman became acquainted with a Dr. John Cox, a surgeon who was aided by Abdul-Rahman's family after he and crew members were shipwrecked off the coast of Guinea. Cox lobbied for Abdul-Rahman's release to no avail. Abdul-Rahman joined the effort as well, writing a letter to Senator Thomas Reed in Washington. The letter, written in Arabic, was forwarded to the U.S. Consulate in Morocco. The sultan of that country read the letter and requested Abdul-Rahman's release. Abdul-Rahman was eventually released and began a campaign to raise funds to purchase the freedom of family members. In the end, he could purchase only two of his nine children. Abdul-Rahman did return to Africa by way of the American Colonization Society but never saw the remaining family members. In 2006, the descendents of Abdul-Rahman held a reunion that was made part of a PBS documentary about the prince's life. Curiously, several of his relatives carry either the first or last name of "Prince."
10. The first Southern reading of the Emancipation Proclamation took place at the Emancipation Oak on the campus of what is now Hampton University in Hampton, Va. Located three miles from Fort Monroe, the 98-feet-in-diameter Southern Live Oak is the place where contrabands were taught during the Civil War. The reading of the historical document took place there in 1863. The tree has been named one of the 10 Great Trees of the World by the National Geographic Society.

Emperor Akihito Urges His Stricken Nation to Continue On
TOKYO—Japan's rarely seen emperor urged the stricken country not to give up, saying he was "deeply concerned" about the unfolding nuclear crisis. It was an unprecedented video address that underscored the extraordinary events unfolding since Friday and tapped into the nation's tense mood.
Speaking slowly and deliberately, Emperor Akihito, 77 years old, said: "I hope that those affected by the earthquake will not give up hope and will strive to survive, while taking care of their health." The address lasted roughly five minutes, and all major television stations simultaneously broadcast the recorded message at 4.30 p.m. on Wednesday.
The short address came as panic and fear were mounting in Japan over the country's unfolding nuclear crisis. Though the imperial family in Japan is seen by some Japanese—especially the younger generation—as an anachronism, Emperor Akihito is still held in high regard by many, particularly among older Japanese.
"I was greatly moved by the braveness of the survivors who are encouraging themselves in trying to live on through this enormous disaster," the emperor said.
Japan's imperial institution—the world's oldest, with its estimated 1,700-year history—almost got eliminated after World War II, which was fought in the name of Emperor Hirohito. But U.S. occupying forces decided to keep Emperor Hirohito on as a "symbol of the state." Emperor Akihito acceded to the throne in 1989 following the death of his father, Emperor Hirohito.
Many observers were stunned that the emperor gave such an address. "I'm shocked that the emperor actually agreed to do it. This is an extremely rare occurrence, and I'm humbled," said Keiko Matsumoto, 48, a businesswoman. "If the emperor says we need to come together, help each other, and work hard to get over this crisis, then those words mean a lot to me coming from him, and that's what I'll do."
Others said the address resonated with them, in contrast with speeches by politicians and Prime Minister Naoto Kan, which had left them cold. "What Mr. Kan says or politicians say are not convincing at all, and I don't understand what they are saying very much," said Mami Saotome, 23, who works in the financial industry in Tokyo. "When the emperor speaks, I listen to his words."
The imperial family in Japan has gone through its fair share of media scrutiny and hasn't been without its own issues.
Crown Princess Masako, the Harvard-educated former diplomat who became a member of the royal family when she married Crown Prince Naruhito, the son of Emperor Akihito, has suffered an "adjustment disorder" since December 2003, and has yet to fully recover to perform her official duties. The Japanese media have reported that she faced immense pressure to give birth to a boy and to adapting to the rigid, traditional life of the imperial household. Her daughter, Princess Aiko, born in 2001, was in the news last year, over reports that she had been bullied by her elementary-school classmates.
Still, others weren't so impressed.
"I saw the broadcast. I must profess that I have no great love for the emperor," said Tatsuo Horikawa, 77, a retired Tokyo resident. "People of my generation feel a little differently toward the imperial family than, say, their parents, who generally harbor a deeper reverence—or at least respect. But growing up in the aftermath of [World War II], I came to realize that a lot of the hardship we went through was due at least in part to the fact that people in authority—like the emperor—who could have done something to make our lives better, simply didn't."

Home > How to use Heat Transfer Paper
Step 1
Print off the heat transfer paper using normal paper settings, changing the quality to 'Photo'. Once printed, leave the ink to dry. There is no need to reverse your images.
Step 2
Cut out your image using a craft knife of a pair of scissors.
Step 3
Peel off the backing paper from the transfer paper.
Step 4
Position the transfer paper face up on top of your fabric.
Step 5
Cover your image with a sheet of baking parchment or silicone paper. Do not use greaseproof paper because this will stick.
Step 6
Place your fabric onto a hard, heatproof surface like a thick wooden chopping board. Do not use an ironing board. Iron over the silicone paper using a hot iron. You need to press as hard as you can and slowly move over each section of the design, ironing for up to 45 seconds on each section before you move to the next. This ensures the image is stuck well enough so it will not come off when the fabric is washed.
Step 7
After you have finished ironing the design, take off the silicone paper.
Step 8
Here are the finished results. Yellow grid heat transfer paper is very simple to use, and leaves fabric with a good handle.

I am a certified language instructor with over 20 years experience tutoring Spanish and French with local high schools and community college. Recently I have tutored online as well. I have traveled extensively and studied in Mexico and Spain. I have a Master's Degree in Spanish Literature. I feel that one on one tutoring of a subject helps a student reach his/her full potential and I can offer much patience for the student to reach his/her goals. If a person can communicate in another language he/she has an excellent opportunity to understand other cultures and integrate himself/herself in that society.
I am a certified language instructor with over 20 years experience tutoring Spanish and French with local high schools and community college. Recently I have tutored online as
Very good. She is always early and arrives over-prepared. I would recommend her to anyone at any level trying to learn Spanish.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have experience with WyzAnt students tutoring English as a second language and college English (writing). I enjoy helping students with this subject and have much patience with them.
I have experience in teaching ESL to students in Mexico City, Mexico. I taught ESL for two years in the capital city. The two schools where I taught were Interlingua de Mexico and Harmon Hall. I traveled throughout Mexico City for Interlingua de Mexico giving classes to corporations such as Sabritas, a potato chip company. Harmon Hall had intensive visual English classes in branches in the capital city
Recently, I taught an individual ESL to a Venezuelan student at the Las Mariposas Learning Center in Ballston Spa. I am able to have insight to teach English because I also tutor Spanish and I am aware of the unique problems people have learning both languages. I strive to make people feel comfortable with my classes since I know what it is like to learn another language.
I have studied French for many years and can communicate in the language. I have traveled to France and Montreal where I have utilized the French language.

text: I always loved to sing. As a child the sound of my mother's voice singing, seemed to always fill the house with her love and presence. Sometimes she would just hum. I loved to just take advantage of listening to her smoothness, passion and sense of freedom when she sang because to me she was like God. Either way it always gave me a sense of security. Little did she know I would be the only 1 of her 5 children who was influenced by her love of song and music. I didn't know that I had such an awesome and special seed planted in me from God thru my mother. I now know that I am a vessel, a woman filled with the Holy Spirit who has found one of the reasons God created her. I stand in for the person who loved me from birth, my mother, my gift from God, who was my vessel as I am His vessel. I confess that my children and my grandchildren and their children so on and so on shall inherit that same seed as it is my legacy in Jesus name

By Geoffrey Paul
December 17, 2010
Part of my argument for not appointing a new chief rabbi in 2013 (for which there was no room in the JC today) is that Lord Sacks' retirement could open the way for an even larger communal role for him as Emeritus Chief Rabbi. Released from the shackles of the United Synagogue and the Beth Din and with a seat in the House of Lords, the way is open to him to become spokesman for the entire Anglo-Jewish community without regard to denomination.
Whatever the elected role of the president of the Board of Deputies, even he would have to acknowledge that no one so readily has the ear of the country. Old timers among the peers cannot remember such fulsome praise as greeted his entrance into the Lords. Even Jenny Tonge joined in! An emeritus chief rabbi empowered by its constituents to speak for the whole community on issues of concern to Anglo-Jewry would make the representative role of a new chief rabbi redundant, for the next few years anyway.

Pivotal efficacy trials, which are trials that form the basis of the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) decision to approve a novel therapeutic agent,1 have great relevance to clinical practice because when these therapies are first approved for use, few clinical trials have been conducted. However, studies focused on pharmacotherapies approved prior to 2005 found that more than one-quarter of these trials were not published,2,3 although efforts to promote clinical trial transparency and dissemination have since intensified.4 We determined publication status and timeliness among pivotal trials supporting the approval of novel therapeutics by FDA from 2005 through 2011.
As described previously,1 we assembled a cohort of pivotal trials for all novel pharmacologic drugs and biologic agents approved by FDA between 2005 and 2011. Trials were categorized by therapeutic and trial characteristics, including randomization, allocation strategy, duration, and number of patients (Table).
To determine trial publication status, 2 of us (J.W.S., N.S.D.) independently searched the biomedical literature during the period from April through October 2013 using a systematic strategy. Publications were identified in 1 of 2 ways: we searched the Scopus database (Elsevier Inc) using the terms "[generic drug name]" AND "clinical trial." Alternatively, manufacturer-designated trial identification numbers of 6 or more characters were entered into the advanced search feature of ClinicalTrials.gov.5 We used 4 criteria to identify matching publications: study design, indication, intervention, and intention-to-treat enrollment; publication enrollment was allowed to exceed that reported by FDA because enrollment often extends beyond regulatory submission. Publications that pooled results from multiple trials were credited to all relevant trials if trial design was discussed in detail. For all unpublished trials, a third reviewer (J.S.R.) independently confirmed publication status.
To determine trial publication timeliness, we calculated time from approval to publication in months for all trials that were published. We examined associations between publication and both therapeutic and trial characteristics using Pearson χ2 analysis, performed with JMP software (version 10.0.0; SAS Institute Inc).
There were 380 pivotal efficacy trials associated with 149 novel therapeutic agents approved for 164 indications by the FDA; the median number of trials per indication was 2. Overall, 86% of pivotal trials (326 of 380) were published in peer-reviewed biomedical journals. Among 164 indications, at least 1 pivotal trial was published for 96% (157 of 164), whereas all pivotal trials were published for 82% (134 of 164). Among all published trials, 48% (157 of 326) were published before or during the month of FDA approval; among trials published after approval, the median time from approval to publication was 7.0 months (range, 1.0-73.0). Finally, there were significant differences in publication rates by therapeutic area (P = .003) and by total number of patients (P = .02), but not by other characteristics (Table).
Among the pivotal trials supporting the approval of all novel therapeutic agents by the FDA from 2005 through 2011, 86% were published in the peer-reviewed biomedical literature, although timeliness varied. This rate is slightly more than the 76% published for drugs approved from 1998 through 2000 and the 69% for antidepressants approved from 1987 through 2004, although the former used a slightly different search strategy and the latter included both pivotal and supporting trials.2,3 Nevertheless, our findings suggest there is opportunity for to improve and ensure that all pivotal trials are published. These trials are critical both to FDA approval decisions and to clinical practice, as there is otherwise limited clinical research available to inform physician and patient decision-making when therapies are first approved for use.
Our study was limited to pivotal trials; we did not examine whether the many supporting trials submitted as part of novel therapeutic applications were published, although we expect their publication rates to be lower. In addition, we did not contact manufacturers to confirm that trials were unpublished, nor did we determine whether unpublished trials reported results on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Though the overall housing market remains bleak (or perhaps because of it), the rental income generated by U.S. landlords is soaring, and has reached its highest share of GDP since the '70s. This, in turn, is fueling a strong rebound in multi-family apartment construction, though construction levels are still well below where they stood during the housing bubble's peak.

Put this one with the rest of the series, it might help.
All in all, not quite what we expected from the AVN Award winning Best Amateur Series. While the rest of the picture was pretty good, the first two scenes were simply disappointing. In the first scene, the uninspired acting coupled with the actress' obvious distaste during the first cum shot really put a damper on the entire production. And while we tried to ignore it the second scene, learn to be a porn girl 101 didn't do anything to help us along. Perhaps it would have been more fun had he not been so snappy, and she not resembled a dead fish.
