Dramatic Makeovers Revealed in Episode 13 Season Finale of Mission Makeover™ on Lifetime®
Four women cross the finish line of 13-week journey of a lifetime, and they're ready to reveal up close and personal what they've achieved, on series hosted by Julie Moran. Will they declare "Mission Accomplished"?
(POMPANO BEACH, Fla.- PR.Com – May 16, 2014) After 13 weeks of sweat, tears and cheers, stumbling blocks and stretching out of their food and fitness comfort zones, the four ladies of the Mission Makeover™ team are ready to reveal their transformations from the outside in and the inside out on this powerful journey of a lifetime.
Make sure to tune in to this exciting SEASON FINALE on Monday, May 19th at 7:30 am (ET/PT) on the Balancing Act® airing on Lifetime to watch the stunning results of all their hard work -- and see if Hillary, Sasha, Victoria and Deborah dare to declare "Mission Accomplished"
Three months ago the ladies carried around unwanted inches, pounds, and health issues and the Mission Makeover trainers, experts and even host Julie Moran stepped onto the path right alongside the women to help them stay on course towards the finish line. Did the ladies get rid of the emotional and physical weight they had hoped to shed?
Stunning results deserve a stunning "look", so before the Mission Makeover ladies step onto the Big Reveal stage, they set out on a shopping spree thanks to Macy's, to find fun, fashionable and glamorous dresses, shoes and jewelry to give them head to toe style for one of the biggest moments of their lives.
As part of their Big Reveal prep, the women paid a visit to Stanton Smiles in Ft. Lauderdale to get their teeth whitened with Philips Zoom, a professional whitening treatment proven to whiten teeth up to eight shades in only 45 minutes.
Watch to see who says, "A cheeseburger has never made me feel like getting into a size 6 does!" The Season 3 Finale features retrospectives, revelations and insights from Hillary, Sasha, Victoria and Deborah and their tireless trainer Adriana Martin, nutritionist Meryl Brandwein and Life Coach Jessica Leon.
The show will also highlight how South Beach Diet helped teach the ladies about getting away from the word "diet" and concentrating on better food choices and a healthier lifestyle, and Sports Authority who helped the women reignite their passion for sports activities.
A selection of surprises will await the ladies to congratulate them on how far they've come as well as to inspire them to continue their journey, including a very generous gift card from Sports Authority; technologically-

"I'm thrilled to be named a finalist in the Making a Difference Essay Competition, both to be able to share how important community service is to me and to encourage others to find ways to serve, learn, and grow. Thank you, Cook Honors College, for giving me this opportunity to write about something that means so much to me!"
"I am thrilled to have been chosen as a winner for this contest! Writing my essay was truly a soul-searching process that helped me understand even more why I love to volunteer and why it is so necessary to do. To be honored for my community service means a lot and has motivated me to continue to make a difference through volunteering. Thank you so much Cook Honors College!"
"I am honored to have been named a finalist in this competition. The opportunity to share my experiences participating in community service is priceless, though the monetary award is also greatly appreciated. Community service has greatly shaped me during my high school years, and I hope to inspire others to engage in this pursuit. Thank you so much, Cook Honors College, for giving me this recognition!"
"I was excited to learn that I was a finalist in the Making a Difference Essay contest- I worked very hard on my essay and it was on a subject that is a huge part of my life. Being chosen to be in the top 15 was an honor. I'm glad I was able to participate in the contest."
"I am honored by the opportunity to share my experience with others. My hope is that my essay can one day inspire readers to truly reflect on the contributions they make towards their communities. I believe that all of us possess the innate ability to shine light on the world—thus, it is our duty to push ourselves in order to serve those around us. With love and good will in our hearts, no hurdle is insurmountable. God Bless."
"I was very surprised when I found out my essay had placed - for a while I just sat there amidst rising excitement! It was definitely very encouraging for me, but aside from that, writing this essay has helped me to fully appreciate what service has taught me. Thanks to this contest, I feel I am a wiser person. Thank you."

"It really is an indescribable feeling to be able to share such a valuable experience of my life and be recognized for it. It's wonderful that everyone can benefit from helping the community; being able to see things from a different perspective has changed my life and has made me grateful for the small things in life. Once again, thank-you!"
"It sounds cliche, but my community service really did change my life and my views. I'm pleased that the Cook Honors College gave me the opportunity to tell my story. That's much more important than the money."
"Being named a finalist in the Making a Difference Essay Contest is really an accomplishment for any teenager in America. It is oppurtunities like these that really help us succeed as a member of society, and for that I thank you for this recognition. I want to make a positive difference in this world, but I need help. This money is the help that I need, and for that I thank you."
"Thank you so much for this opportunity! I am honored to be considered as a finalist. I discovered a great deal more about my experience after articulating it, and the lessons I learned through community service are even more compelling now."
"I am both thrilled and honored to be recognized for this award! Although a tragic event was the inspiration for my essay, it is my hope that I will continue to use that experience to make a positive difference in the lives of others."
"Childhood illness has been a significant part of both my personal life and my service efforts for many years, and I am very honored and quite excited to be named a finalist."

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My fiance and I live in florida, his 14 year old, almost 15 year old son lives near Boston. My fiance's ex said his son could come to the wedding 4 months ago. He's been trying to contact her to make flight arrangements and she hasn't returned his calls until recently. When she finally called him back she said his son may not be able to come because he's not doing well in school. We've had issues like this in the past where she'll say one thing and then change her mind about visits. We're getting married in almost 3 months and would like to make the flight arrangements asap. We just feel really helpless. We've been together almost 4 years and she hasn't let his son come to visit at all.
If the parents of the child are under a court order regarding visitation and custody they are subject to it's contempt powers. If that is the case, you could petition to court alleging a violation of that custody/visitation order. If there is no order, you have a big problem that 3 months can't solve. Alternative is to contact the boy and send him the ticket.
I think that there are several issues that need to be considered here. The first relates to how your fiance's son is doing in school. If your fiance has shared legal custody, which is typically the case, then he has the right to contact his son's school to find out how he is actually doing to determine if this is just being used as an excuse. If he is actually struggling in school, I would suggest that you propose a plan for the wedding trip that would minimize the amount of school that he would miss and propose specific strategies for how you plan to deal with finding time for him to get the work that he is going to miss done while he is with you or when he gets back home. It is important that you understand that his ex is likely having a difficult time dealing with his remarriage and try to be considerate of her feelings, if you can alleviate her concerns by coming up with a plan, it is in everyone's interests that you do so. I would suggest that your fiance consider reducing his plan to writing and requesting permission from his ex one more time. Give her a short time frame in which to respond so that you have adequate time to seek the assistance of the Court if needed.
Where you go from there depends on what sort of custody and visitation rights your fiance has. If his ex is violating the present order by denying him visitation with his son for the wedding, then you can go to Court and seek to have her held in contempt and to request an order of the court allowing the trip. If the current order does not specifically allow him visitation that would include the wedding weekend, then you will need to take a different approach. You will likely need to file a Complaint for Modification of the current order. Typically these types of proceedings take time, but you can file them on an emergency basis and seek an expedited hearing in cases where there is an exigent circumstance. If you are out of state, your attorney can request that your presence be waived and that you ex be allowed to testify via telephone conference or affidavit, but the judge may require him to appear.
I would strong urge you to disregard the comment above about sending a plane ticket to the son directly. Depending upon the Court order that is currently in place, this may constitute contempt of court. More importantly though, it will place his son in the middle of a dispute that he should not be involved in and that he has no reason to know about. The Family and Probate Courts frown heavily upon parents who involve their children in their custody and visitation disputes. While it may be tempting to do so in the heat of an argument, it is always better in the long run for you take the high road and leave the children out of it.
I wish you the best of luck with your upcoming wedding and sincerely hope that you are able to work with your fiance's ex to find a way for his son to be there with you on that day.

Passengers on a plane from Israel to Britain had a shock when they realised one of their fellow travellers had an unusual item with them – a snake.
EasyJet said the animal was harmless and those on board were not in any danger but they called out authorities to meet the plane when it landed at Luton on Wednesday.
A spokeswoman said: "easyJet can confirm that a passenger brought a small, pet snake in a container on board a flight from Tel Aviv to Luton. As soon as crew became aware of this they dealt with the issue in a professional manner, immediately contacting the authorities to ensure they met the aircraft."Reuse content

In light of the Southbank dispute with London's city council, that which threatens the demise of an English skateboarding mecca, acclaimed skate filmmaker Henry Edwards-Wood created an awe-inspiring video to raise awareness of Southbank's profound culture. Edwards-Wood captured the coexistence of both spectator and skater, telling the story of not only the present, but the deep-rooted history of the spot. The film is cheekily titled "Dear Jude," which is a reference to Southbank Centre creative director Judith Pamela Kelly. The above can be seen as a response to Kelly, who recently urged the Long Live Southbank committee to "see the bigger picture" of Southbank's 'modernization.'

Making My Own Invention at Home
Teach Your Students About Australian History With These Five Essential Flags for the ClassroomFlags can be an essential component of a history lesson, and their visual appeal has the power to engage your students in a way that text may not be able to. With so many Australian flags ranging from the Australian Defence Force Ensign to the Queen's Personal Flag for Australia, it can be hard to know which flags to display in your classroom and discuss. However, if you want to give your students a sense of where they come from, the history of the country and their place in the world, consider creating lessons around these five flags. 1. Australian National Flag Any lesson on flags and history in Australia should start with the national flag. See if your students can figure out what each of the three major symbols in this flag represent. The Union Jack in the top left corner of the flag represents the country's historic ties to the United Kingdom, the stars on the right side of the flag represent the Southern Cross constellation and Australia's position in the southern hemisphere. Six of the points on the seven-pointed star represent the six states, and the seventh point represents the territories collectively. 2. State Flags The points on the national flag are a great way to segue to a discussion about the history of your state and its flag. Each state has its own unique flag, but since the mid-1800s, these six flags have followed a similar format. Against a blue background, the flags feature a small Union Jack and an individual seal or badge representing something about the state. For example, the badge on the... read more
Australians have always been known for their ingenuity. I have come up with a pretty groovy little device that I think is going to be very popular. I keep getting urged to send the manufacturing of it offshore, but I said no way! I want it to be proudly Australian made. So I'm learning about what it takes have my own manufacturing plant in my back shed. It's a whole new learning curve, but I'm a quick learner! This blog has some of the useful information on building manufacturing facilities in your backyard that I have turned up in my research. Enjoy!

I'm ready and excited! Counting down the days! Paid up and working out!
Views: 1946
I'm not paid up yet, but I'm definitely excited!
Just paid up myself, and super excited to go to my first festival next summer! :)
just paid up too, looking forward to it already
I am paid up too. I think it is great to lock in early and I look forward to it. What an advantage to prepare for such an event almost a year in advance. 2013 will be my first one!
It will be my second year, The months are counting down quickly :D
sooooo excitedddddddddddd weeeeee! :) not paid up yet but i will of course!
Great to see you all excited about next year.
I do plan to return to WFF 2013 in loving service again.
It will RAWK for sure!
Much Love,
Dr. SAM
I am hoping to be there, too. The money isn't the biggest hurdle, it's more that we're planning to move next year and so I can't buy flight tickets until I know where I'll be living at the time :-). Also, will need to get holidays approved by my boss... But apart from that I am set (in my mind) :-)
YEAH! I'm really excited about (hopefully) being on the volunteer team. That is the only way I would be able to afford it but it is also a great way to get to know people and really feel part of it all. I have the money all save up for the ticket and am saving up for the volunteer 'insurance' money down.
Almost six months from now!!!!! Eeeeeeee!!! I can't wait!!! gonna have to though haha
Does anybody know if the organic and conventional fruits will be labeled?
and if so is there good quantity of organic?
I think most of it was organic last year, a few things that are not possible to get organic were conventional. 70-90% organic i think *_*

Its more than the pictures portray ,everything you could need ,spotless and great .
Jill Doyle, Dublin ,Ireland
11/07/11 Positive We had a fantastic, relaxing time in your amazing home! Couldn't have asked for anything more...quiet, spacious, within driving distance to anything we needed, and extrememly reasonably priced - we would recommend it highly to any of our friends planning a Disney vacation!

06/26/11 Positive Wow, what a fantastic home! We loved staying here,
the location is great; Disney is on the doorstep, and
there are lots of restaurants and supermarkets
The house is spotlessly clean, and everything you
could ever want is there - including a chest of toys
that our two children loved! The beds are very
comfortable, and everything is of a very high
standard. We will book this home again for our next
trip, it really did feel like home.
Charlie , Surrey, UK
03/17/11 Positive If you are planning a trip to Disney, this is the place to stay. The owners were very friendly and accomodating. The house is absolutely beautiful. It is so close to the parks. We have small children and they loved the themed bedrooms. Plenty of linens, dishes, and space. Can't say enough about this home. We loved it.
Thank you,
The Donahues
Kevin Donahue, Wareham, MA
12/29/10 Positive We had an amazing vacation. It was so nice to come back to the comfort of the house after a LONG day at the parks. My 3 children (6,3 & 1) loved all of the toys and the Mickey and Winnie bedrooms. The house exceeded our expectations in every way, roomy, clean, kid friendly and VERY close to the parks.
Your service was icing on the cake. I received my security deposit within a week of returning from our vacation.
We will definitely be in touch when we are ready for our next Disney Vacation!
Christina, Coral Springs, FL
08/14/10 Positive We have just returned from our fantastic holiday to Florida, and I wanted to say how much we enjoyed your house. It was fully equipped in every way and we couldn't have asked for anything more.
We stayed at a Disney hotel previously to coming to your home and had to share one room, so it was lovely to have so much space, we didn't want to leave! The little touches made such a difference - I particularly liked the little soaps you left in each bathroom (as I had forgotten to pack any - so it saved us a mad dash to the supermarket.
The Pool was wonderful and facing the sun all day:- Perfect.
Thank you for making our first experience of hiring a villa a great one.
Sue Jeffery, Essex, England
07/01/10 Positive I recently stayed in this fabulous home in Emerald Island Estates. Our experience was fantastic. This home is beautiful and spacious and very accomodating. We loved be able to lounge in the nice pool after all day at a Disney park. This is an exceptional home and I would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Florida. Also it is a snap to get to all the the Disney attractions as well as Sea World, Discovery Cove and more!!!
Lori Knepp, Williamston, Michigan
06/23/10 Positive We have been to Florida on a number of vacations and as of yet I have to say that we have not had a bad experience with our accommodation. But that being said I would like to make a comment on this years holiday booking in Nancys beautiful home in Emerald Island Resort to say that from my on line dealings with her and our stay in Nancys home that it was as near perfect experience that I would have thought possible and can honestly say that we have nothing negative to say.
George Broomfield, Portlaoise, Laois, Ireland
04/19/10 Positive We just got back from a great week in your villa. Everything about our experience was perfect, from the booking experience through the number of towels and the included pool heat. We rent villas on all of our vacations and this was one of our best experiences.
The Hochhauser Family, Paramus, NJ
04/13/10 Positive At Disney's Door is a great deal and the very spacious home is much nicer than staying at a cramped hotel. The pool and hot tub are much fun. The home has a huge number of ammenties including toys and video games, all needed kitchen implements. Best of all, Nancy herself is very responsive; she provides you with very clear, helpful and timely instuctions on the house and the many local resources. Nancy clearly cares about her guests and takes great pride in the property. What Nancy does not do is nickel and dime her guests like many other rental properties seem to do; the fee is all-inclusive. Would certainly return.
The Helfgott Family, Saint Louis, MO
02/22/10 Positive We all want to thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us for our family vacation. Our family of seven including adult children & grandchildren spent last week in chilly Orlando but the weather didn't ruin our stay. Your home is perfect for young and old. The family room & kitchen provide space for togetherness while you can always get away for alone time in the living room. The pool was a comfortable temp and the jacuzzi always inviting. The grill was perfect for eating at home when desired but there are so many restaurants close by to also eat out. It couldn't have been a more perfect week. Oh - can't forget the Mickey waffles each morning for breakfast! Will recommend & will definately be back!
Sue Kenevan, Brooklyn Park/MN
02/15/10 Positive I have stayed in Emarald Island before but this is my family's favorite house. Very kid friendly, open floor plan, great pool. The owner does a great job with the little details that make a vacation special. I highly recommend this home.
Jerry Doyle, Georgia
02/02/10 Positive We both want to thank you for the wonderful 3 weeks we recently spent in your home at Emerald Island. Your home does not lack a single thing for comfort. We enjoyed the large pool and jaccuzzi. We hope to return in the future. We highly recommend this home for adults and or children with parents and grandparents.
Muriel Hood, Vermont
10/27/09 Positive The house was so nice it was our home away from home for the week. We were so comfortable it had every thing that we needed. Myself, my husband, my two children and mom-mom and pop-pop enjoyed the pool after the long day at the parks. My children ages 10years and 20mnths also loved the video games and toy box full of toys. They also enjoyed the disney theme thur out the house. We were also pleased about the closeness of the parks and stores. The community is so nice(Emerald Island). We will sureley rent the Weidman's house again. We will be back in 2 years!!! Oh! The hot tub was nice too!!! Nancy made the renting easy she was very helpfull!!
06/05/09 Positive We have been to Orlando several times and this home was the best place that we have stayed. Our only mistake was that we brought too much stuff! The house has almost everything that you can think of - and they were clean and working. The pool and hot tub were great and used a lot. The location is great and we highly would recommend the house to others and will return when we come back to the Orlando area.
Sam Burkett, League City, TX
05/05/09 Positive Our stay at your place was great. I cannot say enough about the cleanliness of the home. Everything was spotless.
Our children are 2 and 6 and LOVED the pool. There were plenty of pool toys for them to play with and even a little life vest for our 2 year old. Of course, the adults (me and my husband) also enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi.
Also I would like to comment on how comfortable your beds were. The matresses were so comfortable. The last house we stayed at, we woke up with backaches every day from the poor quality matress.
It was an effortless transition to stay in your home. It was so close to Disney! Much better than staying in a cramped resort with no room to move.
We will definetly consider staying at your home again when we plan our next trip to Disney.
Thanks Nancy.

01/07/09 Positive Hi Nancy,
We stayed at your house in early December and what a wonderful stay we had. The house had everything we needed and if we were there the kids were in the pool. Having all the things we have at home made the stay very enjoyable.
The proximity to all the parks (Universal as well) was also very convenient and the weather was great.
This is the way to do Disney.
Thanks for a great stay.

06/17/08 Positive Our family arrived in Orlando this past week and the drive from the airport to Emerald Island was a very short and pleasant drive. When we saw the entrance gate to Emerald Island..it was an incredible site and once we made it through the security gate and pulled up to the house..it made us even more excited.
Once you enter the home..you realize that it is HUGE...with enough room to feel relaxed and not cramped. The kitchen had all the necessities, the outdoor grill worked like a charm, and the inground pool and jacuzzi were spectacular.
The house was extremely clean and there were plenty of extra blankets, towels, and other necessities.
I could go on and on....but no matter what...this home, its location, and all it's amenities..made our stay in Orlando PERFECT!!!!
The Sage Family, New Hampshire
05/17/08 Positive We loved the home very very much. Our kids (2 and 5) have had a wunderfull time, they were playing with all the toys. They loved the wunderfull disney rooms and of course the fantastic swimming pool and jacuzzi! We have been several times in Florida and always in a villa, but this villa was the best of all!
So we will come back, and we can recommend the villa to everyone,especially when you have little kids.
Special note for Nancy: thanks for sharing the experience of your beautyfull villa!!
Richard Knoop, Holland
05/14/08 Positive WOW!!! I just left Nancy's beautiful home down in Disney, and I have to say I can't wait to get back. My wife and I took our two boys 7 & 4 along with my Mom and her best friend. Everyone loved the home, the pool, the neighborhood, the proximity to all the parks, and I can't leave out how EASY Nancy makes it for you! After long days at the parks we loved coming home to a private pool where we could relax and cool off. We were looking at hotels when a good friend recomended Nancy's home, and I know I can speak for my entire family when I say I am very glad they did!!!!
Anthony, Boston
04/18/08 Positive I was a little nervous at first, but Nancy was such a
pleasure to work with. I told my husband that if the
experience with you was any indication of your
home, we were in luck!! And it was!!! The house
was perfect, it was very warm and inviting, it felt
like home to us. We would go back in a heartbeat!
Thanks for such a wonderful experience!!!!
Melissa Timotic, Chicago, IL
03/30/08 Positive Feb. 1/08 - Feb. 28/08 This was our second visit to your home and as great as the first time was, this was even better. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we decided to come back for a month this year. You and your house really could not have been better. Both are a pleasure to deal with.
Sandy & Marty, Toronto, Ontario
03/21/08 Positive I was looking for a private, relaxing and entertaining home and this is exactly what I found at Nancy's home. It was a wonderful retreat after spending time at Disney Land and Universal Studios. The house had all the conveniences that one would find at home-nothing spared! The kitchen was over-equipped and user friendly. The beds were upscale and as comfortable as my own home. This is a spacious home and with 4 adults and 2 teenagers we were never tripping over each other and had room to spare. The inground pool was enclosed and secluded-it was well-maintained and was thoroughly enjoyed by all! The house was immaculate and located in a wonderful neighbourhood. I concur with other responders that Nancy is very punctual at responding to e-mails. I had difficulty with my flight due to weather and Nancy was EXTREMELY accomodating. I felt through my e-mails and telephone correspondence with Nancy that she was genuinely dedicated to helping organize my family vacation. She made me feel like I've known her for years (very comfortable rapport) I had never vacationed in this manner before but after such a positive experience would do it again.
maureen keelty, Ottawa, Ontario Canada
11/20/07 Positive We just got back from a very enjoyable trip to Disney. The house was wonderful! My 5 year old enjoyed the toys and stuffed animals and of course the pool was a hit. The location to resturants was great and it was very easy to get to the Disney parks. I'm sure we will be back next year :)
Kathleen Piper, Conyers, Georgia
08/20/07 Positive Our stay at this house was fantastic, everything we needed was there to use, it was nice to have the security of being on a private community, lots of space. Pool area very good, nice to have the saftey barrier.
Good to have the short-cut to Disney parks, we found that it was good to park at Epcot, do that park, then take the Monorail direct to Magic Kingdom, rather than drive between, especially in the evening.
I have no problems reccommending this house, Nancy replied to any Email very quickly and answered any questions.
Do not hesitate if this is your first time booking over the internet.
Georgina Tillyer, Newbury, Berkshire
07/03/07 Positive We had a lot of fun at the house, the location was great, it was as neat as a pin, and the pool was AWESOME. We went in the pool every single day we were here. Also, we loved the little Disney decorations around the house. They totally added a cute little touch to every room. They were very welcoming. Thanks for sharing your home with us. We will be sure to tell our friends and family all about it. Thank you
I will definitely tell our friends and families about you and your beautiful house and i know where to stay next time if we go to Orlando again.
Dawei Li, Jersey City, NJ
06/10/07 Positive This house is fantastic for a trip to Disney. Our kids were estatic with the disney rooms. It was also very nice to have two master suites. This was the perfect spot to end the day, it seemed like home when you walked in the door. Nancy and Jon were a pleasure to work with and all the details went very smoothly. It is very nice to wake up and take a swim before you go to the parks and after many hours in the parks the hot tub was perfect. You will not go wrong by selecting this home for your vacation.
Mark & Jennifer, Va. Beach, VA.
04/28/07 Positive We were so pleased with the house & everything in it that we were talking about when to go back on the plane ride home. The grill, directions, tons of towels, playstation and of course the pool & jacuzzi were all so wonderful. Now that we have been spoiled we wont be staying in a hotel room anymore! My son told us that this was the best vacation of his whole entire (8 yrs) life and I have to say that I agree!
We will be in touch soon in regards to our next stay.
Thank you so much from
The Stewart Family
Suzanne, Pembroke, Ma
04/16/07 Positive We had a wonderful stay in the villa. The pool and jacuzzi were lovely after a tiring day. The villa is situated in lovely location, very handy for the parks (and great short cut tips).
We couldn't fault the villa at all. We will be back!!
Mancer Family, Cambridge, England
03/24/07 Positive We had a truly wonderful visit and we enjoyed the many comforts and conveniences of your home immensely. Your house is furnished and outfitted perfectly...just like home!
We will definitely contact you as we plan our next visit and in the meantime will be more than happy to refer family and friends seeking lodging in Orlando.
You have been a pleasure to work with Nancy.
Russell Stephens
03/09/07 Positive We had a great time at your home! It was so clean, well kept, very open and bright. Our kids loved the toys, the pool and the themed rooms with all the characters. The gated community makes it very safe. We loved that it was a very short trip to all the parks...we could go for half days and be home in 5 minutes. Thank you very much and you can use us as a reference. I have refered your home to 3 families already I hope they book with you. We will definately be back.
Shelley, Brooklin, Ontario
01/30/07 Positive We had an excellent stay at your beautiful home which IS so close to the parks! The home was VERY clean upon our arrival and was well stocked with all of the amenities needed while away from home!!! The two master suites are great for two families! The only downfall of our stay was that the weather was not that cooperative at the beginning of our stay... however we ended up having an excellent sunny day at disney and at least one sunny day by the pool!!! and then we consoled ourselves by shopping!!! The house is so well located and close to everything!!!! and the property managers were so friendly and prompt with responses to any questions we had! Please do not hesitate to use us for reference!! Your house truly lived up to all of our expectations!
Jewel Hartviksen, London Ontario Canada
10/11/06 Positive We had an absolutely marvelous time in your home, relaxing by the pool, and frollicking at Disney. It was terrific being so close to the parks. And I really like the pool having more privacy than most of the villas there, being almost completely surrounded by hedges. All the nice touches for families (from Disney cups and plates, to the toys and playstation) make it seem like home away from home.
Thanks Nancy!
Brian, Windsor, Vermont
09/28/06 Positive We had such a wonderful vacation. The house was perfect for our needs and was so wonderfully comfortable. We felt right at home. Hated to leave!
John & Shauna Dow, Windsor, VT
09/15/06 Positive We had a lovely time in your home everything was confortable and did not make you feel you were in a rental home,the additional benifits of the strollers and Mickey waffle maker and Disney crockery added to the pleasure of our holiday. The Kids had a wonderful time, and to come home to the aircon after a hot and sticky day at the parks was bliss. Thank you
Caroline , Hampshire
05/20/06 Positive Thankyou Nancy and Jon for allowing us to rent your beautiful home which was everything you described and more. We had a fantastic vacation made much easier by your helpful tips and pre-vacation information. The house was more than sufficient for the five of us and having the benefit of our own pool and Jacuzzi was an amazing bonus, especially at the end of an exhausting day in the parks. My only regret is that i did not discover the benefits of renting a private villa some years ago when my children required pushchairs and cribs. Thankyou
Jacqui, England,UK
03/27/06 Positive March 4-11, 2006
I had a few reservations about renting a house from someone I don't know, but you totally put me at ease because you understood where I was coming from. I was 100% satisfied with your home, location, access to grocery shopping, short-cuts to the parks, etc. I will definitely rent again when we return to Orlando. I have recommended your home to several friends, one of whom is already booked for the fall. I know she and her family will enjoy your home as much as I did. Why would anyone want to stay on property, pay 150% more for lodging, to hang out with all those people and have no space to spread out, do laundry, swim privately and cook their own more inexpensive meals??
I certainly got enough Disney during the long days we spent at the parks and we all looked forward to some privacy and relaxation. Thanks again for all.
Lee, Houston, TX
03/27/06 Positive Dear Nancy,
We wanted to let you know that we were very pleased with your home. With 3 children, it was great that I did not have to bring along a portable crib, strollers etc with us since you had everything in the home. We were only about 5 minutes from Disney which was great. We left the park for lunch and then was able to return for the evening.
Finally, the kids loved the pool and all the toys/games that you had available for them. We would definately recommend your home to others and will definately consider staying there in the future.
Mandy Hansen, Mayfield Heights, OH
01/21/06 Positive Dear Nancy,
Wow! You stated that we would not be disappointed if we chose your lovely home, and you could not have been more correct!! We so appreciate your organizational skills, quick responses and professionalism. This was our first visit to Disney and staying in your wonderful home helped to make it that much more memorable!! Your home was spacious, warm, inviting and located so close to all the parks. We especially enjoyed swimming in the pool and relaxing in the hot tub after a long day at the parks!! Our daughter was thrilled with the Pooh and Mickey themed bedrooms and all the toys(both in the house and by the pool), games and books that were available to us!! We used the Mickey waffle maker almost every morning!! The Mickey dishes and mugs where such a special touch too! We would recommend your special home to anyone who is planning a trip to Disney.
Thanks again and God Bless,
The Marzo Family

12/03/05 Positive Hi Nancy,
I just wanted to let you know how fantastic our vacation was. Your house was absolutely perfect! We couldn't have asked for a better set-up. My 2 year old was ecstatic with the toy box and all the stuffed animals, my 6 year old was thrilled with all the play station games, and we all thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Nolan (2) learned to swim all by himself (with a vest on of course) and was so unbelievably proud of himself. The house had more than enough room for all of us (8) and was so well equipped. We have already told everyone we know that when they are ready to go to Disney, we have the perfect house for them. We have already started talking about our return trip too and will positively be renting your beautiful home again! It was just so nice to not have to go to bed at the same time as the kids as you would have to in a hotel room. Instead we got to sit and relax in a nice cozy hot tub - who could ask for more???? Anyway, thank you so much and you will be hearing from us as soon as we plan the next trip.
The Eastman Family - Nancy, Mike, Josh and Nolan

10/10/05 Positive This was truly amazing. The house is beautiful with plenty of room for 9 people to beable to stretch and relax. We have stayed in the Disney resort before and found this to be much better because at disney you get a little hotel room and have to share a swimming pool, where here you get a huge house and a private pool and hot tub. We will definitly come back in a few years. Thank you
Tammy Mathieu, Clinton Connecticut
08/02/05 Positive Nancy,
We had a great vacation in Orlando and at your home. Your home was new and beautiful...what a good feeling we had the moment we saw it. It was very comfortable for Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, Dad and three kids (9, 5 &3). The two master suites were great.
And just as you said, it was close to everything. The pool safety features were so good that we were very comfortable with the small grandchildren there.
Of course, your house did cause one problem for us...sometimes the grandkids wanted to leave the theme parks and go "home" and swim instead!
We used the directions you sent us all the time. Your thoroughness was such a big help in planning and in being there.
Our 3 year old grandson proclaimed "this house is great" immediately after our arrival, and after a swim in the pool, our 9 year old granddaughter wanted to know why we didn't buy the house...
Our daughter-in-law loved the Mickey dishes and made us all waffles one night on the Mickey waffle iron. Fun touches.
We could see by reading the visitor journal that you have a steady stream of visitors. We were happy we could be among them. We'll certainly contact you again whenever Disney World is on our vacation schedule. We would recommend your house to everyone. Thanks again.
The Dowells, Chicago, IL
05/01/05 Positive We just loved our stay at Emerald Village! The accomodations were superb and spacious and the pool and jacuzzi kept us all entertained after long days at the parks (or even early mornings). We will tell all our friends to come on down!
Virginia and Jim Crane, Newark, DE
02/28/05 Positive We had a very pleasant vacation, We have
been impressed by your home.
Nothing negative at all. We will be in contact
with you for our future vacation
in your area. I will tell my friends about my
experience at your home
and your excellent service.
Thank you
Michel Yasenza and family
Michel Yasenza, Québec, Canada
02/22/05 Positive Dear Nancy&Family Thankyou so much for sharing your rental home with us, it was amazing! I have never stayed somewhere were their was so many extras for families with children. There is no hotels that offer free usage of all the baby furniture you have. Also it is so nice to be able to enjoy the pool/juccuzi while your little one has gone off to bed, you would not be able to do that in a hotel. We all felt right at home, it was the perfect home away from home!!
The Gregoire Family, Fairhaven,MA
01/10/05 Positive With four children, this was the perfect place to stay. We had plenty of room, the house was very comfortable and the pool and hot tub were a big hit with all of us. It provided easy access to all the Disney Parks.
von Albade, Mokena, IL
10/20/04 Positive Wow what a wonderful time we had in Disney World and staying at your home. When my kids walked in and saw where they were staying for the week they got so excited. The loved the pool, the hot tub and most of all picking out their own bedrooms. The house was perfect for a family of 6. The nights were wonderful. After a long day at the parks, we all got in the pool/hot tub and enjoyed the evenings. My kids didn't mind leaving the parks because they knew they were going home to swim in their very own pool. Plus, having the back way to and from the parks made all the difference.
Chuck and Debbie Burk, Mokena Illinois
10/18/04 Positive What a fabulous vacation we had at your wonderfully appointed home. With plenty of room for our family to relax and every possible amenity, we're sure we could not have found a better place to stay. Plus, the proximity to the theme parks makes Emerald Island the best choice for families who want to be close to the action, but also want to have all the comforts of being at home.
Michelle, Walpole, MA
08/21/04 Positive Nancy,
The pictures sent to us did not do your lovely house justice. It was wonderful, enjoyed by all of us, adults and childen (young adults) included. The detailed information sent to us was a bonus i.e. how to get to the Disney parks avoiding the major roads, and the pool and barbecue were a huge success with us all. We felt totally at home and safe when faced with the prospect of Hurricane Charley (what a great story to tell all our friends!). Thanks for your hospitality - we will recommend your home without reservation. Best Wishes to you all.
The Rice & Joll Families, Horsham, W Sussex, UK
08/11/04 Positive Our two families with five children aged between 2 and 14 had a wonderful time staying at your beautiful villa. It was close to all the theme parks and the kids loved the pool. We really appreciated all the detailed information on where to go and the shortcuts to all the parks. I would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone wishing to stay near Disney in luxury accommodation.
Moira Swinbank, London
08/07/04 Positive Nancy, We had a fantastic time at your top quality villa. We were not disappointed and would most certainly recommend it to anyone staying in Florida. Indeed we plan to come back soon. Your home was beautiful, the best we'd stayed in, and we've been 4 times to Florida, staying in villa's each time. Being close to Disney was great, and all the little Disney touches in your home, made the kids think it was a dream house!! The pool was wonderful and the hot tub a godsend when relaxing at night after a day in the parks. All the useful information you provided and how easy you made it book, pay and get there was top notch! Thanks so much. In true Arni style 'We'll be back!'.
The Sugden & Canavan Families, Glasgow, Scotland
06/20/04 Positive Nancy, we would like to thank you for the use of your lovely home. You said we would not be disappointed and we wern't. The house coped easily with 4 adults and 4 children and the pool wasa big hit with kids. The bedrooms were superb and the house had all the gadgets you need. We decided we would like to "beam it" star trek style back home (including the weather). Thanks once again the house made the holiday an extremely good one.
Ashley Heeley and Family, selby, North Yorkshire, UK
04/20/04 Positive Nancy,
Thank you so much for allowing us to visit your Florida home. It was exactly what you described it to be: very well equipped, spacious, clean, comfortable, and centrally located.
We were not disappointed!
Theresa Bird, Toronto, Ontario
04/03/04 Positive This house was perfect. Plenty of room for us, our three children, and my parents. The pool and jacuzzi were great-I think the kids enjoyed them more than Disney!! I would stay here again!
The Hopkins Family, Chelmsford, MA
02/09/04 Positive We spent our Christmas Holiday at your lovely home and had the absolute best time ever! Our Family so much enjoyed the close location to Disney, the heated pool, the great lay-out of the house, the beautiful decor and really feeling like we were at a "home away from home". We were there with our two children, ages 21 and 17, my husband's sister and her 6 year old daughter and my husband's parents. We all stayed together and we had more than enough room! The Main Master Bed and Bath is wonderful! The Disney decor sets the tone and the kitchen had everything we needed. The best thing was being able to come and go to the Disney parks (we were so close!). Everyone we talked to was friendly and helpful. We will definetly be back!
Bill & Peggy Dickson, Tulsa, Oklahoma
01/12/04 Positive We had a fabulous time staying at your place in Emerald Island. We have been down to Florida a number of times before, staying at various hotels (including in Disney) and time shares, but these were the best accomodations that we've ever had in Florida !!!! Everything was sooooo convenient including the private pool and hot tub and virtually every need that we had were met. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.
Henry, Toronto, Ontario
11/23/03 Positive This house was perfect! We just returned from a week with our five young children. The homeowners have gone above and beyond to accomodate their guests. The proximity to the parks is a huge plus! The home is beautifully decorated and stocked with everything to truly make it a home away from home. Rent this home, you'll be glad you did!!
Colleen, Walpole MA
11/07/03 Positive My husband and I and another couple from Colorado (good friends of ours) met in August in Orlando to spend some time together, after not seeing each other for a few years. We stayed at this villa and were absolutely thrilled with our accommodations. Being two adult couples, it was great having two master suites in separate parts of the house. I am a travel agent and am extremely picky about my accommodations, and I found the villa to be exceptional. It was beautifully laid out, every amenity was available, and the location was ideal for trips to Disney properties. What we liked most were our evenings having a late dinner by the pool (after a full day of trekking through the Disney parks) and then lounging in the pool and jacuzzi with a glass of wine, staring up at the stars. While we were there, Mars was in view, and our friends (who are early morning folks) were up at the crack of dawn to see Mars each a.m. while taking in the warmth of the pool waters. We all decided, when we left, that we wanted a private spa and pool at our own homes!
Kathy Butuceanu, Newport News VA
10/27/03 Positive We had the most fantastic stay at your Beautifull house at Emerald Island.
It was just amazing as soon as we walked through the door we could not believe our eyes at how lovely everything was.
The children were spoilt for choice as to which bedroom to sleep in.
Thank you once again.

Crispy Oven-Fried Cod Fish
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 6 mins
There is nothing fancy about this but if your looking for a crispy coating without any deep-frying this is about as good as it gets, If your skillet is not large enough to hold all of the fish, then transfer to a baking sheet that has been coated with oil, only dry breadcrumbs or the coating will not adhere to the fish --- cooking time is for oven only, if desired any large fish fillet can be replaced for the cod, all seasoning my be adjusted to taste
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups dry breadcrumbs
- 1 1⁄2 cups yellow cornmeal
- 2 1⁄2 teaspoons seasoning salt
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons lemon pepper (or use 1 teaspoon black pepper or to taste)
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons garlic powder (garlic lovers increase to 2 teaspoons if desired)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (more or less if desired)
- 6 (6 ounce) cod fish fillets (about 3/4-inch thick)
- 3 large eggs, slightly beaten
- 6 -7 tablespoons vegetable oil (more or less as needed)
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees (set oven rack to second-lowest position).
- In a large heavy ziploc plasic bag combine bread crumbs, cornmeal, seasoning salt, lemon pepper, cayenne and garlic powder; shake the bag to mix (can use a shallow bowl).
- In a shallow bowl slightly beat the eggs.
- Adding one piece of fish at a time to the bag, coat well with the mixture, then remove and dip the fish in the eggs, then return to the bag to coat the fish again, repeat for all of the cod pieces; transfer to a plate.
- Heat about 3 tablespoons oil in a large 12-inch ovenproof skillet (preferably cast-iron) over high heat until hot but not smoking.
- Fry the fish until the undersides are golden brown (about 1 minute).
- Turn over and add in another 3-4 tablespoons oil; cook another 1 minute more.
- Place the skillet in the oven and bake for about 5-6 minutes or until JUST cooked through.
Most Helpful
I made this for dinner, with thick Costco cod planks. It was very good. I skipped the panfrying step and baked it at 400 for 20 minutes. I also added about 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese to the breading.
This is a great way to have fish.I scaled the recipe down to 3 fillets.Like alot of others,I didn't pan fry this at all.I baked it in a 375F oven for about 25 minutes. This coating would be nice on chicken too.
The fish had great texture - a nice crispy outer layer. However, this had little to no taste. I couldn't taste any of the herbs, aside from the cayenne, which I found disappointing. I had hoped for a subtle lemon flavour, due to the lemon pepper. If I were to make this again, I would greatly increase the amount of herbs and decrease the amount of breadcrumbs and cornmeal.

The advertising campaign in New York telling men to stop "manspreading" has cost the city's taxpayers more than $76,000.
"Dude…Stop the Spread, Please" was the biggest takeaway from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's (MTA) new campaign announced last month, instructing riders on proper subway etiquette. "Manspreading" is when a man keeps his legs apart while sitting.
Invoices obtained by the Washington Free Beacon from the MTA through a Freedom of Information Law request reveal that the campaign has cost $76,707.70.
The MTA hired Edison Lithograph and Printing Corp. to print thousands of posters and placards, which will appear in 2,600 subway cars. The company produces all of MTA's advertising and brochures.
The MTA is $34.4 billion in debt.
While online commenters complain that manspreading is "ridiculous male privilege," defenders of the practice argue, "I need to sit that way because of my balls." Others decry that "women put their handbags on seats all the time."
The Canadian Association for Equality, which is fighting a potential ban of manspreading in Toronto, agreed.
"This sets a very bad precedent as men opening their legs is something we have to do due to our biology," the group wrote in a petition to the Toronto Transit Commission. "It sometimes can be physically painful for [us] to close our legs and we can't be expected to do so."
They added that manspreading is a "sexist term, and is the simple act of opening your legs."
The MTA said promoting good etiquette makes the subway more enjoyable for everyone.
"The new program, developed by MTA Corporate Communications, highlights behaviors that are both encouraged and discouraged for the benefit of everyone," a press release announcing the campaign said. "The messaging largely reflects complaints and suggestions from riders."
"The colorfully-designed placards employ simple graphics to illustrate behavioral 'do' and 'don't' scenarios," the MTA added. "The illustrations are reinforced with pithy statements."
Besides manspreading, the list of "no no's" include "clipping" your hair, "primping," and "blocking doors."
"Poles are for your safety, not your latest routine," will also appear on an ad.

This past week saw so many insider buys that I had to break up the CFO list into market cap sizes. This edition features three midcap stocks and one large cap stock. I prefer to look at CEO and CFO insider purchases more than others. These two positions have a unique and close view of the companies they work for and should know better than other any potential catalysts or problems. While these insiders may fall victim to the same emotion as other investors, they only put their personal money into shares if they think they'll make money from it. Each stock deserves a closer look.
eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY): CFO Robert Swan bought 3,380 shares on August 10 at an average purchase price of 29.56. This is the first insider buy on the open market that I've seen for eBay in a year and a half. While insiders may not be buyers (although they're still receiving options), big investors like Leon Cooperman, Daniel Loeb, and John Griffin own a significant number of shares. The stock seems about fairly valued right now.
Everest Re Group (NYSE:RE): Everest Re is an insurer that I highlighted back in January of this year. Shares are lower today than what they traded at then despite a higher book value. Shares trade at a price to book ratio of 0.7. Their historical ratio is more like double that. Famous investors Mason Hawkins, Chris Davis, and Donald Smith are big holders of the stock. CFO Dominic Addesso seems to think shares are cheap. He bought 1,000 shares on August 9 for $75.55 per share. Shares yield 2.4% and the company has been buying back shares over the past year.
Nielsen Holdings (NYSE:NLSN): CFO Brian West bought 1,000 company shares on August 9 at an average purchase price of $26.70. West owns more than 79,000 shares in total. Nielsen Holdings is a market research company doing business in more than 100 countries. They run the eponymous Nielsen Ratings. The company has a $9.7 billion market cap and trades just a few dollars above its January IPO price.
Cadence Design Systems (NASDAQ:CDNS): The CEO and CFO at Cadence have been busy buyers of the stock. Most recently CFO Geoffrey Ribar bought 5,000 shares on August 8 at an average price of $8.80. Ribar had bought shares the week before as well. Cadence Design is an electronic design automation company with a $2.4 billion market cap. Shares trade for a lower price than most of the insiders paid for the stock throughout this year.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

New order pickers from Hyster
Hyster Europe has launched a new low level order picker to enhance its complete range of energy efficient tough trucks with a low cost of operation.
The new LO2.0-2.5 low level order picker from Hyster has been developed to optimise the speed and ease of picking from both sides of a warehouse aisle. First seen at CeMAT 2011, the intelligent design combines energy efficiency, reliability and ergonomics to achieve excellent operator pick rates and low cost of operation.
One of the most notable design elements is the 'man to goods' proximity and the comfortable work platform with reduced height that helps minimise movement and saves valuable time in the picking operation. The large platform provides more space for the operator and allows easier pass through, with easy on/off access.
To move the low level order picker, Hyster has developed an easy to operate scooter control with finger tip controls for use when on the platform. The operator can also move the order picker to the next pick location without having to climb on board with the creep speed control on the side of the truck.
The new Hyster low level order pickers have a 2,6kW motor for high performance acceleration and travel speed to ensure maximum productivity over a full shift of picking. The trucks include regenerative braking, anti-roll back on slopes and offer excellent energy efficiency, allowing the performance to be set to suit the application. Furthermore, sufficient ground clearance means that warehouse debris, uneven floors or ramps won't hinder these trucks.
The range includes models for ground level picking or frequent second level picking requirements. The LO2.0-2.5 with a scissor lift function will be available from January 2012, and also includes a raising operator platform or independent forklift for second level picking.
The new low level order picker from Hyster offers one of the most efficient and cost effective solutions for the fast supply of customer orders. Available with a variety of options and fork lengths for picking to pallet or roll cage, it also performs well in horizontal transport activities such as cross-docking and load shuttling.
With this introduction, Hyster claims that it has one of the best ranges of order pickers on the market, which includes the new K series of medium to high level order pickers and C range of leading VNA equipment.
Hyster products are supported by an extensive network of authorised distribution partners, providing coverage and expert service across Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), the Americas and Asia-Pacific, helping to maximise customer's productivity and efficiency, and reduce overall operating costs.

One Day in Montreal
Great food, nice selection of wine...tasty tapas and dishes. Had a great fun with a group of friends
This place is a great hang out on any week nights. I was there on a Wednesday with some friends. It was busy enough but apparently Thursday is the happening night. We sat at the bar and ordered some salads and wine. It is laid back, and with an interesting crowd. The food is good, and service is good also....
We stopped here for dinner because three people we ran into on this trip highly recommended it.... Well, sorry, but I can't recommend this place based on our experience.
Their wine list was strange, with low end wines selling for high end price tags... They offer a 2 oz or 4 oz glass of wine... Come on... Who actually orders...
a good rustic place to have a drink in a cosy warm surrounding, i don't recommend it to eat, food wasn't spectacular but just good, portions are small, staff are freindly
Food: a few items to eat while having a drink. We had a platter of smoked meat, which was more like smoked ham, for about 10$ and fries for about 4$.
Their baguette is good.
Wine selection: good variety. What we liked most is having the option of half a glass of wine for about 5$. We were able...
We went early on a Friday night and got 3 seats on the corner of the bar. The perfect place to sit. Our server was very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour and the charcuterie tray (which we hand selected) was the best we've ever had. Next time we are in Montreal it will be the first place we...
I'm afraid to write this review for fear it will be over run with people like us from Brooklyn but this place is a find. Very local warm and cosey place with EXCELLENT food! We loved the charcuterie board with a number of excellent meat, cheese, pate, vegetable options. The waitress was extremely knowledgeable with the recommendations and how best...
Great wine list with many of the wine being available by the glass. i think the princes are very decent taking into account the functionality of the place, the ambience, the dj music playing non_comercial music. these guys are showing who they are thru their staff who now how to serve and party. I call them in potential because their...
I had the fish, served over a purée and a Greek salad that were so delicious that I will have to come back to Momtreal to visit this place again. It was so good, that I am tempted to back before I leave town.
We were two couples, had never been to this type of tapas restaurant before. The server was more than helpful in explaining the menu and how the different dishes could be served. We ended up with a large platter of starters, full of all sorts of delicious meats, cheeses, olives, etc..
Then we shared the ½ Chicken. Everything was tasty...

The Woriey project examines molecular mechanisms of activity-dependent synaptic plasticity that contribute to drug addiction.
Aim 1 will use newly developed mouse models that afford in vivo regulation of expression of the immediate eariy gene (IEG) Rhebl to examine how signaling of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) controls dynamic protein translation. In work supported by this grant, we have demonstrated that Rhebl is essential and sufficient to activate mTORCI in vivo, and have established viable mouse models that either conditionally delete Rhebl or express an activated Rhebl transgene (Zou et al., 2011). To explore the role of mTOR in protein translation, we will process brains of Rhebl transgenic mice to isolate mRNAs that are associated with polyribosomes or ribosomes in the process of translation initiation, and identify those RNA sequences that are protected from RNase digestion using RNA seq (Ingolia et al., 2009). Studies will test the hypothesis that mTOR controls translation of a specific set of brain mRNAs, and will test the "scanning" hypothesis for translation initiation.
Aim 2 will focus on mTOR-dependent proteins that are generated in neurons, and that regulate myelination in the CNS. Myelination is known to be dependent on neural activity and is disrupted in patients with drug addiction, however the molecular basis ofthis process is unknown. Rhebl transgenic mice show prominent changes in myelination (Zou et al., 2011) and preliminary studies indicate a role for neuron-generated proteins that control the differentiation of oligodendrites and their generation of myelin proteins. Information from Aim 1 mRNA analysis and direct assays of protein expression will generate candidate proteins, and these will be tested using in vivo assays for effects on myelination.
Aim 3 will explore the role of a novel protein family termed LanCLI in regulation of activity- dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS). LanCLI is regulated as an lEG and is highly expressed in normal brain. We have developed models that conditionally delete LanCLI gene or express LanCLI transgene in brain and we will use these models to test the hypothesis that dynamic expression of LanCLI is essential for normal synaptic plasticity and cocaine-evoked plasticity.
The Woriey project examines biochemical signalling pathways that control brain metabolism to assess how they contribute to drug addiction. These signalling pathways play an important role in brain plasticity and influence mRNA translation, the generation of myelin, and the response to oxidative stress. Studies will contribute to a deep understanding of the molecular basis of neural plasticity and drug addiction.

Alternative Transport Fuels Initiative
The Alternative Transport Fuels Initiative is one of the foundation areas of research of the Dow Sustainability Program. Led by Dr Susan Pond since its inception, the Initiative promotes the development of cost-competitive advanced biofuels as part of the transport energy mix in Australia, particularly for sectors with critical needs, such as aviation, resources, defence and shipping and of the appropriate policy levers that might encourage accelerated take up.
The prosperity of developed and developing countries is underpinned by abundant, affordable energy derived from fossil fuels. The bounty delivered by these fuels — in the form of coal, gas, and oil — since the beginning of the industrial revolution is uncontested. But these fuels are the subject of increasing international concern because of the massive release of CO2 and other greenhouse gas and airborne pollutants into the atmosphere and the effects of these emissions on our climate as well as our food, water, health, and national security.
The Alternative Transport Fuels Initiative aimed to focus on four realities related to transport energy from Australian and US perspectives:
- Transport is the major global consumer of oil, burning more than 60 per cent of the world's total oil production each year.
- Aviation, shipping, heavy freight logistics, and defence have very few options other than to rely on the high-energy dense liquid fuels that the oil industry provides, and on existing energy infrastructure for the foreseeable future.
- Oil use by these customer segments is forecast to rise due to increased demand for travel, goods, and services in rapidly urbanising countries such as China and India.
- This is an unsustainable outcome. It would lead to further increases in emissions, deaths from airborne pollution, and use of a finite resource.
Australia and the United States are both completely dependent on well-developed transport networks but are at very different stages in the development of policy to address the challenges. By focusing on the experiences of these countries, the Alternative Transport Fuels Initiative aimed to bring together experts who could tackle the immense task of finding a way for the transport industry to move beyond its prodigious dependence on oil.

Engagement with the United States Advanced Biofuels Industry
The US is at the leading edge of the advanced biofuels industry. Commercial scale facilities are currently coming on line because of consistent, decades-long policy settings of Federal and California State governments that facilitate the development of the advanced biofuels industry.
The US policy approach is based on the recognition that:
- Government leadership and vision are required to set the stage for the development of new industries
- A viable, sustainable domestic clean energy industry will enhance energy independence and security, improve terms of trade, provide environmental benefits, and create national economic opportunities
- The switch from fossil fuel to renewable energy faces both political and financial challenges
- The transport sector accounts for 71 per cent of total US oil consumption and 33 per cent of carbon emissions
- Aviation has no term viable alternative for energy to kerosene for the foreseeable future
- An action plan to reduce emissions from aviation requires a multipronged approach
- Deployment challenges for renewable aviation fuel production plants are no longer related to technical issues but to challenges of wider-scale commercialisation, including price, supply chains
- Investment, political and policy uncertainty restrain growth
- Government agency cooperation is key
- Potential acceleration is a function of public private engagement – such as via the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative (CAAFI).
CAAFI was formed in the USA in 2006 as a public private partnership of four key stakeholders – the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Aerospace Industries Association (AIA), Airports Council International – North America (ACI-NA) and Airlines for America (A4A). Each of these partners provides funding and resources to CAAFI. Importantly, the FAA contribution is in the form of funding for FTE positions within CAAFI and support FTE positions within the FAA itself. CAAFI has driven substantive work in the areas of: fuel certification and qualification; research and development; assessment of environmental impact and life cycle green house gas emissions of renewable aviation fuels; and business and economic case for deployment of renewable jet fuels in the market place.
More recent US Federal policy measures include minimum renewable fuel usage requirements, blending and production tax credits, an import tariff, loans and loan guarantees, and research grants. The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is one of the more prominent policies. It requires that a minimum volume of biofuels be used in the national transportation fuel supply each year. Congress first established the RFS with the enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct, P.L. 109-58). Two years later, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA, P.L. 110-140) greatly expanded the reach of the policy and extended the date through to 2022. The expanded RFS (referred to as RFS2) requires annual use of EPA-stipulated volumes of advanced biofuels and a cap on the volume of ethanol derived from cornstarch.
In regard to renewable aviation fuels, the FAA fulfills many roles in driving industry forward. It plays an important coordinating role amongst government agencies and the private sector right across the supply chain. It provides important tools to enable analysis of environmental impacts, economic quantification and decision-making. It funds and fosters test and demonstration work to accelerate fuel technology development. The FAA has interagency partnerships, the major ones being with the Department of Energy, US Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Navy, Airforce, National Aeroanautics and Space Administration, and the National Science Foundation.
The Department of Defense is also playing a policy leadership role in the development of the advanced biofuels industry through initiatives such as Farm to Fleet and the Great Green Fleet. The Secretary of the Navy has set 2020 goals for reduction of use of oil from fossil sources and increased uptake of oil from renewable sources. DOD is now using the DLA Energy bulk petroleum contracting process to begin large-scale, domestic, drop-in biofuels purchases for regular operational use.
The US Studies Centre has established strong relationships in the US with CAAFI, each of its stakeholders, with the Government departments and agencies, including the Department of Defense and the US Navy, and with the private companies that are developing and now beginning to deliver real results in the form of renewable aviation fuel in commercial quantities and at commercial price points.

Australia in firing line if US and China go to war
Associate Professor James Brown says Australia faces some tough decisions if tensions escalate between the US and China.
Centre CEO Simon Jackman explains the Centres wide range of teaching, research, study abroad and outreach activities.
