The fatal CNS demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is caused by the productive infection of glial cells with the human neurotropic polyomavirus, JC (JCV). JCV infects most people early in life and then remains in a latent state where JCV gene expression and replication cannot be detected. However, in the context of severe immunosuppression, especially HIV-1/AIDS, JCV becomes reactivated leadings to PML. In regard to reactivation, our working hypothesis is that JCV gene expression is switched on in glial cells of the brain by the action of proinflammatory cytokines. This application is a competitive renewal of our R01 entitled "Cytokine Regulation of JC Virus Latency and Reactivation", in which we have pursued this hypothesis. We have observed that transcription from both the early and late JCV promoters is positively regulated by NF-?B and negatively regulated by C/EBP?, which act at a common element (KB) in the JCV control region. The activities of both of these transcription factors are modulated by extracellular cytokines and both JCV promoters are activated by cytokines, e.g., TNF-? and IL-1? through the KB element. TNF-? and its receptor were found to be abundant in clinical samples of HIV-1/PML lesions. In these studies, we also made two novel and interesting observations. Firstly, we found that a third transcription factor NFAT4, which is activated by cytokines and calcium signaling via calcineurin, can bind and stimulate the JCV KB element in cooperation with NF-?B and is also negatively regulated by C/EBP?. Secondly, epigenetic events involving protein acetylation are involved in this process, since histone deacetylase inhibitors potently stimulate JCV early and late transcription and mutation analysis has implicated the KB element in this effect. In the light of our new findings, we have now extended our hypothesis and propose that, in addition to NF-?B and C/EBP?, the transcription factor NFAT4 and epigenetic control by protein acetylation are also involved in viral reactivation. We now propose a comprehensive experimental analysis of the roles of these factors in determining JCV latency/reactivation and its response to the status of extracellular cytokines. Through these studies, we hope to gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in JCV latency and reactivation to cause PML and this may open new therapeutic avenues to this disease.
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a deadly disease of the central nervous system that is caused by a virus called JCV, which is only able to grow when the immune system is impaired. Mostly, this disease afflicts people with HIV/AIDS. The goal of this proposal is to understand the reasons why the virus begins to grow in these patients so as to allow the development of new therapies.

January 22, 2010 – Binge eating disorder affects three times more people than anorexia and bulimia combined, but millions of sufferers are currently unaware that their experience of binge eating is in fact a treatable disorder.
Many sufferers of binge eating disorder are teens, so it is with great excitement that the Binge Eating Disorder Association (BEDA) has endorsed the groundbreaking student-shot film TEEN TRUTH: AN INSIDE LOOK AT BODY IMAGE.
TEEN TRUTH: AN INSIDE LOOK AT BODY IMAGE, the third film in an award-winning series by TEEN TRUTH Director Erahm Christopher and Producer JC Pohl, chronicles the real struggles of three teenagers with body image issues, including eating disorders, obesity, and performance enhancement drug use.
"The implications of negative body image in teenagers is a complex and widespread issue," says the film's director Erahm Christopher, "and this film uncovers the reasons why teenagers struggle – from the unrealistic images in the media they can only fall short of to the implications of name-calling and derogatory behaviors in our schools."
Kayla Abrao is a student featured in the film who has dealt with binge eating disorder throughout her teen years. In the film, she explains that food is a source of comfort for her, but the impact of her eating behavior nearly destroyed her. Kayla is now a confident seventeen year old, who after much work is finishing high school and has found a place of acceptance and love for herself.
An estimated 3.5% of American women and 2% of American men have binge eating disorder.
"TEEN TRUTH is making a great impact in the community, as they are making it okay to talk about issues as scary and private as eating disorders. This awareness and openness is essential for people to get past their shame and find the help and hope they need," says Chevese Turner, CEO and Founder of BEDA.
On March 4-6, 2010 BEDA will hold its first annual Binge Eating Disorder Association (BEDA) conference. Christopher and Abrao have been invited to present the film. The conference will cover all aspects of awareness, treatment, education, and empowerment around binge eating and related disorders like compulsive/emotional eating and food addiction.
BEDA has made great strides for sufferers of binge eating disorder in the past year and a half in operation, including increasing awareness and advocating for a recognized diagnosis that would allow treatment for all those with the disorder.
Binge Eating Disorder Association (www.bedaonline.com) was founded to help those who have binge eating disorder, their friends and family, and those who treat the disorder. BEDA provides the individuals who suffer from binge eating disorder the recognition and resources they deserve to begin a safe journey toward a healthy recovery. BEDA also serves as a resource for providers of all kinds to prevent, diagnose, and treat the disorder. By establishing strong connections among members and sister organizations, BEDA's goal is to give everyone access to the tools they need to live with, treat, and, ultimately, prevent the disorder.
TEEN TRUTH (www.teentruthlive.com) is North America's premier education film series and part of the TEEN TRUTH LIVE student assembly experience. TEEN TRUTH LIVE's trademark combination of award-winning, student-shot films and professional motivational speakers makes for unforgettable and life-changing events. Each high-concept film features its own unique style that uncovers the real truth on the issues that students face but don't talk about. With subjects such as BULLYING, DRUGS & ALCOHOL, and BODY IMAGE, TEEN TRUTH LIVE boasts the most unique issue-focused assembly programs available. In less than three years the films have reached over 2.5 million people and the TEEN TRUTH LIVE speakers have personally touched over 400,000 lives.

Outdoor Activities in Manila
By Viator, July 2016
Located at the mouth of the Pasig River in Intramuros, a trip over to Fort Santiago may be just the way to start off your outdoor excursion. One of the most interesting spots in Manila, this 15th-century fortress contains some seriously well-preserved historical artifacts, including a Spanish dungeon WWII tank and the former prison of national hero Dr Jose Rizal.
Speaking of Dr Rizal, the Rizal Shrine, also in Intramuros, is one of the best park spaces Manila has on offer, complete with stunning monuments and cultural buildings.
Next up, the Greenhills Shopping Center is an outdoor shopping paradise with more than 2,000 shops in all selling anything from clothes to electronics, local CDs and DVDs and jewelry. As it's one of those places that can swallow you alive, try to keep your wits about you as you make your way through the dense crowds. Also, don't forget that haggling can be the difference between a great trip and a lousy one.
If you'd rather not embark on an all-day journey, laze around Manila until the later hours of the afternoon (3 or 4 p.m.) and then head down to Manila Bay for one of the nicest sunsets around. Boasting lots of room for biking, jogging or just relaxing, Manila Bay is a developing part of town that is well used by locals for several activities, including the occasional boat race or scenic cruise.

Want to renew your focus on Jesus during Lent? Sign up for our free Lent & Easter devotions.
My parents set up irrevocable trust agreements for each of us seven children. Once the trust papers had been signed, they could not be annulled or changed. These irrevocable trusts demonstrate our parents' generous, unconditional love for us.
In Galatians 3:15-18 Paul uses a similar legal document to illustrate the nature of the Abrahamic covenant: Brothers, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case (v. 15). This "irrevocable trust agreement" that God made with Abraham is described in terms of the beneficiary of the trust (v. 16), the date of the trust (v. 17) and the condition for inheritance (v. 18). Our study of these terms of the Abrahamic covenant will enable us to appreciate the gracious, unconditional nature of God's love for us.

Waiting for a rainy day
And ask out your girl
Saving your money
Just to buy artificial pearl
Holding her hands
And going on your knees
Seeing her nervous face
And looking in her eyes
With your hart beating fast
Trying to speak those words
Everything seems quite
And just trying to arrange your words
Now the thing is about "us"
Not about you not about me
So lets just say those words
"Will you marry me?"
Now think
Does that rainy day helped you?
Was it 'you' going on your knees?
Or was It that pearl ring?
Or was it 'you' looking into her eyes?
No it was just your feelings for her
It was just your trust on her
It was just the understanding between you
And it was just your love for her
And what she said......?
Of course ----- YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Shoppers discuss the city's friendly atmosphere
Have you ever enjoyed the simple pleasure of exchanging good mornings or swapping smiles with a stranger as you go about your way?
If you have, there's a good chance you're what top scholars call a "friendly person." OK, maybe that isn't scientific, but it's common sense. As you may or may not know, though, friendly folk seem to be easier to find in some places than others.
We sat in on a conversation between Sara Thompson, 21, Antonio Espino, 26, and Katie Arnold, 25, all of whom spend a fair amount of time in Irvine despite not living here. Arnold works as a personal stylist at Nordstrom in the Irvine Spectrum, and was on her break sitting alone when Thompson and Espino pulled up some chairs and struck up a conversation with her. We asked the group if they think Irvine is friendlier than other cities they frequent.
Thompson: What kind of experiences do you have with your customers in Irvine?
Arnold: Most people are really polite, but they also like to keep a safe distance. That's what I've noticed. People don't like to get too intimate and share too many personal details. It's all very safe, but I think that's all part of being polite.
Thompson: Unlike us, who just randomly walked up to you.
Espino: Yeah, we're very aggressive.
Arnold: It was aggressive! I was like, "Uh oh, what are these people going to talk about?" I was just sitting here eating lunch and balancing my budget, and they were like, "Hey, can we sit with you?"
Thompson: Antonio said, "Nobody should eat lunch alone," so we just walked up.
Espino: That's true, that's what I said.
Arnold: That's very polite!
Espino: Maybe it's because we're in Irvine.
Arnold: "I'm in Irvine, I'm breathing the air!"
Thompson: "I'm breathing the air, I might as well just make it happen."
Espino: Honestly though, I don't really see the difference from place to place, except for like, Laguna, but that's its own little bubble.
Thompson: If you go to like, Fashion Island or something, I feel like the girls are kind of catty, they just want you to get in and get out. It's nicer here.
Arnold: It's totally different from Irvine to Fashion Island. Oh my gosh. I look at the people who are shopping, everybody is judging everybody. Here, there's a lot less of that. It's a lot less competitive.
Espino: I'm from Texas, and it's that exact same thing. Every time you pass by another guy, it's that alpha sort of thing to see who's going to break eye contact first. That's why it's been a big change for me, I don't see the difference from city to city, Dana Point, Irvine, Santa Ana, it's all way better, everyone's way more polite than where I'm from.
Arnold: You feel safe in Irvine. Even though I don't live here, I spent most of my childhood high school and up with people who went to schools here. When I would spend the night at their house, I remember walking around in the middle of the night and knowing I was safe.

Project Description
I'd like to use the free version of SwiftThemes - and need it updated to reflect the PSD design that I have - this needs to be put into the CSS for faster loading.
I want the site to load really quickly so I want to eliminate uneccessary plugins, and those that are needed move them down the page, so that the page loads first before the plugins. Then Add in the functionality into the site that was initially using a plugin like:
1) Add logo to admin
2) Search engine verify - just want code added so google can track etc.
- PinIt button added to all photos that are posted
- When a user hovers on a photo it gives specific info not just wp default i want like "Photographer: ____"
- Need a gzip for my photo sitemap
NEED ADVERTISE/LOGIN button in header - When a user clicks the Advertise Button - need a pop up page with Register or Login - there should be a registration form built in. The form should give the packages that I offer, then the user registers, and stays on the same page when logged in. Don't want a plugin but put this into the code - i.e. WP html registration in a pop up. Then there needs to be a user to go to the Advertise form or to Submit their post.
Buttons/icons/msgs should show the users easily what to do.
When the user gets an email it should give them a direct link to their post and let them know when its approved.
Dropdowns- need the search to start with Select Vendor - Select Category. Drop down needs to be in the sidebar, and on the Suppliers page (I have sample of how it should look, code and form already done, only styling needed). Should be like this on all my country pages where a user selects a category.

Manifest Manhood and the Antebellum American Empire by Amy S. Greenberg
Book DescriptionThe US-Mexico War (1846-8) brought two centuries of dramatic territorial expansionism to a close, seemingly fulfilling America's Manifest destiny. Or did it? As politicians schemed to annex new lands in Latin America and the Pacific, some Americans took expansionism into their own hands. From 1848-60, an epidemic of unsanctioned attacks by American mercenaries (filibusters) took place. This book documents the potency of Manifest destiny in the antebellum era, and situates imperial lust in the context of social and economic transformations that were changing the meaning of manhood and womanhood in the US. Easy victory over Mexico in 1848 led many American men to embrace both an aggressive vision of expansionism and an equally martial vision of manhood. Debates about the propriety of aggression abroad polarized the public at home, shaping antebellum Presidential elections, foreign policies, gender relations, and ultimately the failure of sectional compromise before the Civil War.

Receiver Jennings' foundation gives gift to school
Green Bay Packers receiver Greg Jennings uses this phrase all the time: It's a great day to be great.
But he lives by this creed as well: It is better to serve than be served.
Jennings spent Tuesday morning at the St. Marcus School in Milwaukee urging 180 students to stay in school and do their best.
Through his foundation, he also presented a $1,000 donation to the school, which was matched by a $1,000 donation from Shopko and an $800 matching gift from M&I Bank's community fund.
The $2,800 will go toward the school's current expansion project, which drew loud cheers from the students.
Jennings and Shopko also surprised each student with gifts: a Packers hat, back sack and a book for each child for the school's library.
Tuesday is the only off-day NFL players have in a week and it's usually set aside for healing and rest. But Jennings awoke at 5:45 a.m. Tuesday and made the commute from Green Bay to tell the respectfully assembled students how he sometimes lost focus when he was a student.
In sixth grade it was over girls. In 10th grade it was because of sports. When he brought home a 1.7 grade-point average on his report card, his pastor father and mom forbade him to play basketball.
"I saw how I hurt my parents," said Jennings. "I had let them down but more importantly I had let myself down. So that next semester I applied myself."
Jennings also said that while he left Western Michigan successful as a draft pick of the Packers, it bothered him that he dedicated his senior year to football and not his studies. He left without a degree.
"I let them use me but I didn't use them," said Jennings. "I didn't have that paper that said I accomplished something. There was always that sense of un-fulfillment."
Jennings took classes as he pursued his NFL dream and earned his undergraduate degree two years ago with a major in public relations and a minor in drug abuse counseling. His message to the kids was simple - stay focused on your schoolwork.
"I don't boast that I'm an NFL player because that can be taken away from me today," said Jennings. "But no one can take away my education."
St. Marcus School superintendent Henry Tyson said the financial donation will go toward the school's expansion project, which includes a new primary school building that opened in September and a multi-purpose building for school recreation. The school has 555 students in kindergarten through eighth grade but before the expansion was designed for only 300 kids.
"Every time we add another classroom, it's filled, almost instantly," said Tyson. "The demand for high-quality seats is incredible."
The uniformed children in this school in the heart of the city - just off of I-43 and North Ave. - were enthralled with Jennings' hour-long speech and morning visit.
"It was awesome," said 13-year-old Eric Burks, who posed with Jennings for a picture. "He just wants kids to learn."

The Current: Five things to know
A group of seniors gathered every other week at the old Pizza Royale in Corona del Mar to listen to the music of local accordion player John Valeriano.
When Pizza Royale closed in December 2011, the group migrated to Coco's. Then Coco's closed in March, leaving the seniors without a home — again.
"I guess every time I play a place, they shut down," Valeriano said.
Now, however, the group has settled into a new home at Landmark Steakhouse at 3520 East Coast Highway. About 50 to 60 seniors come to hear Valeriano, 85, on accordion and Tommy Noughton, 87, on the gutbucket, or washtub base. The group takes over a back room the third Thursday each month, and they dance and sing along to songs like "Don't Fence Me In," "Bicycle Built For Two," and of course "Beer Barrel Polka."
Valeriano began performing for OASIS seniors shortly after moving to Corona del Mar several years ago and meeting Friends of OASIS board member Ruby Suikki, who played the tambourine at a recent concert.
Suikki said when she first heard Valeriano play, she knew he'd be a hit — and he was, with a constant stream of new fans joining the group.

"Knot There" was not there. The painting was one of 30 missing works out of 186 in Newport Beach's public art collection.
After the Register discovered "Knot There" and the other pieces were missing, the city did a comprehensive inventory. Their last one was dated September 2003. This time, even City Manager Dave Kiff helped in the search.
They tracked down "Knot There" and found a lot of other artworks too – 236 pieces in all. They also discovered 33 – not 30 – pieces were "not in inventory," as the city describes it.
How did they find "Knot There" but lose track of three more artworks?
City officials say they've expanded the term "not in inventory" to mean items that aren't worth repairing, have little value, "and more."
In the meantime, "Knot There" has found a new home in a storage room in the Central Library.

As Costa Mesa ramps up for its 60th Anniversary celebration, it's looking for 100 people from the community to help out.
The city is pulling out all the stops for the three-day event from June 28 to 30. There will be live music performances on three stages, food from more than 30 local restaurants, a classic car show, an art walk and a children's zone with kid-friendly activities.
For all that, Costa Mesa needs volunteers to staff information and ticket booths and check-in tables, help with crowd control and merchandise sales and help clean up afterward. The city also plans to have a 60th Anniversary information booth at several community events before the actual celebration, and volunteers are needed for that as well.
To apply to be a volunteer, go to the city's website at www.costamesaca.gov/60th or get an application from the City Clerk's Office at City Hall at 77 Fair Drive. Or, for more information, contact Christine Cordon at 714-754-5121 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Sunset Magazine – your guide to living in the western United States – has listed Newport Beach's Balboa Island in its Top 10 places to picnic on Memorial Day.
The historic Hershey's Market and kid-friendly Balboa Candy shop along Marine Avenue provide both the sustenance and sweets needed for a quality picnic, and the easy access to Balboa's Fun Zone by way of the ferry pushed the island into the Top 10. The beaches, waterfront boardwalk and scenic Newport Beach setting helped.
Other California locations on Sunset's list of picturesque picnic places included Big Bear Lake, Crissy Field on San Francisco Bay and Turtle Bay Exploration Park in Redding.

Two surprise guests showed up for Thursday's OC Fair board meeting, but they were relegated to the parking lot.
Patches and Freckles, 3,000 pound, 6-foot-tall oxen brothers, shifted from hoof to hoof in the parking lot while trainer Nancy Truglio kept them company.
In the board room, fair planners ran through activities in the works for the fair, which runs from July 12 to Aug. 11. There'll be a tank and Apache helicopter for U.S. Army day on July 26, a new showcase, "OC in Bloom," of each city's flower, and summer concerts that open with singer-songwriter Colbie Caillat.
And, of course, Patches and Freckles will return to the OC Fair Oxen Exhibit. It was hard to tell if they were excited.

Starbucks is getting greener all the time. They are flirting with a new recycling process that will turn coffee grinds and muffins into laundry detergent and bio plastics.
This mission is being lead by scientists at the City University of Hong Kong and is being tested at a new food 'biorefinery,' that diverts food waste and transforms it into viable, usable products.
The biorefinery process involves combining the baked goods with a mixture of fungi that help break down the carbohydrates into simple sugars. Its fermented in a vat where bacteria turns the sugars into succinic acid which is a material used to produce everything from laundry detergent, plastic, to medicine. The baked goods can be used to create livestock feed.
The Starbucks in Hong Kong itself currently produces around 5000 tons of coffee and pastry waste each year, which currently ends up in either incinerated, composted or disposed of in landfills.

Gilets and sleeveless outer vests
If you've pedalled to the top of the mountain you'll probably be very hot. But that soaring descent can be a cold experience on even the hottest of days. Keep your body from going into chill mode by slipping on a gilet (that's French for 'vest') before you start the downhill ride and keep the wind and rushing air from cooling you down. A gilet is a sleeveless, windproof (and sometimes water resistant) outer layer with a vented back panel to keep your back breathable as the wind is brushed aside. A gilet also doubles up as a perfect spring/autumn layer. Slip it on for the early morning start and stash it in a jersey pocket when the day gets warmer. A versatile garment that every cyclist should own, a gilet combines perfectly with arm warmers to keep you at just the right temperature all day long.
Castelli have updated the Fawesome vest to make it the Perfetto. All the awesome performance features of before with a few perfect extras.
Lightweight core body insulation with water and wind protection, the Endura FS260-Pro SL PrimaLoft Gilet is a great piece of kit to take on your next ride.
Among the most functional layers you can grab when suiting up, a good vest is a true essential.
An essential layering piece, Pearl Izumi's Elite Barrier Gilet provides additional warmth and protection from the elements on colder days.
The Liv Signature Wind Breaker vest barriers against winds and rain perfect for racing or training in the unfriendly weather.
The Endura Equipe Gilet is ultra packable and features superb wind and shower resistant front panels ensuring that you'll be dry and warm all year round.
Giant RaceDay Wind Vest is a sleeveless full zip gilet featuring TransTextura™ mesh back panels and ProTextura™ windproof fabric front and sides with reflective accents for increased visibility.
The Endura Gridlock Gilet is compact, breathable and perfect for all seasons.
Lightweight, compact, translucent, breathable and waterproof cycling gilet that's perfect for pro racers, enthusiastic sportive riders or anyone who likes to set their own personal challenges.
Compact, breathable gilet for all season use, the Endura Gridlock Gilet is the perfect way to keep your core warm without the added bulk of a full jacket.

Besides what the others have said, one time - when I had no money or
access to a trap, I took a box (big enough for the kitten to walk
through it quite a ways) and cut a little circle in one end, about the
size of a can, and put food and water in there for it. I just watched
because I knew it was hungry and would come looking (like you, I had fed
it several times so it expected nummies when it saw me). When she
timidly sniffed and dared to go in the box, it was easy to cover the
hole because it was so far from the food she was eating and she didn't
have time to run to the other end of the box.
Daryl <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote:
A kitten was at my doorstep at 6:30 this morning. I've spent hours trying to
get to know it, leaving several servings of tuna in a dish for it so that it
can eat (obviously very hungry and meowing), and haven't been able to get
close enough to catch it. I picked up some cat food on my way home from
physical therapy this afternoon and will try that. The kitten has gobbled
everything I've given it as soon as I left the area.
My latest encounter led to the kit being terrified by Henrietta II (Rhode
Island Red Chicken) who came running to mama to see what goodies were going
to come her way.
I'm exhausted and the kit is so very small, and there are lots of big storms
coming. I'd like to get the poor little one into a dry and safe spot.
I also have two dogs that don't know diddly about cats except to chase feral
cats out of the yard - that habit courtesy of an adoptee. I don't know
whether they haven't noticed the kit, or whether it still has that baby
smell that seems to give kits and pups immunity.
Help, please.

|Oodalolly, a Curves Class project
Have you been wanting to learn to hand quilt and embroider? Tackle sewing curves? Maybe learn to paper piece or to piece more precisely? Work more confidently with color?
In the new year, I will be encoring two of my best-loved original classes. Which two? That depends... on YOU! On the table are Curves Class, Handstitched, the Penny Sampler and Color Intensive (follow the class links for detailed info or see here for a quick summary of each class).
In the month of December I'll invite four guests to present these classes through their eyes as previous students. They'll share their class experience with you: what they learned, what they made and how they're using those skills now.
Then, on December 15th, I'll open voting here on the blog. You, dear reader, can vote to tell me which class you'd most like to take. The top two winning classes will be announced December 29th and open for purchase on January 1st. Classes will launch January 12th, to give us a few weeks to recover from the holidays.
So, stay tuned!
|Oh, Christmas Tree, a Curves Class project
May your holidays be Merry & Bright and your new year filled with Stitchy Goodness!

I am a member of a private community of Microsoft Certified Trainers on a well known networking site. In the last couple of days one of my colleagues complained that his students were passing their exams by using Brain Dumps, and that these tools diminished the value of the certifications. He opined that this would not change until Microsoft made the exams harder.
What Brain Dumps are is simple; they are the actual exam questions. They are called Brain Dumps because it is believed that people are paid to take the exam, memorize the questions, and as soon as they leave the exam to dump whatever they memorized into a repository. This is, in my opinion, a very trusting position. I suspect that there are testing centres that allow certain people to take recording devices into the test with them and record the actual questions and answers.
Brain Dumps are, in a word, cheating. They are illegal, and go against the non-disclosure agreement that the test taker signs before taking the exam. They are actually cheating from both ends, because just as it is illegal for a test-taker to disclose anything he or she learns during an exam, it is equally cheating to study using these devices. Both are grounds for revocation of your certifications, but as they seem to continue to be a profitable endeavour I am sure people will continue to make and sell them, and others will continue to buy and use them.
The following is my reply to this MCT; others replied in kind and I want to be clear that any form of cheating is frowned upon by most MCTs that I know.
It is simple… any troglodyte can memorize the questions and then pass. The fact that candidates are cheating does not diminish the certification program nor diminish the value of the certifications. It means that people who cheat – and that goes not only for MCP exams but anything – are STEALING the certs, and it is your responsibility to let them know that.
I understand your point that the questions have become more simplified over the past few years. There are reasons for that which I won't go into. However it is my experience that the longer and more detailed the question the easier it would be to memorize and if you are intent on cheating to do so.
Braindumps do not diminish the value of the certification, they diminish the value of the person using them to pass. I used to be affiliated with a training company in Montreal who had a sales person who was not technically inclined. I walked out of my class one day and saw her sitting outside the exam room with a Test King book in her hand. I don't know if it was her intent to take it into the room or just to memorize it well enough to pass, but I let her have it. Later the exam proctor took me aside and told me I owed her an apology for MY behaviour. I told him I would apologize as soon as she called Microsoft Learning and confessed to stealing her certifications, and I would even grovel if he would admit to them that he had helped her. Bottom line is nobody apologized to anyone.
Tell your students that if they want to put letters after their names they can cheat; or they can take your class and pass legitimately and be proud of those letters.

My wife and I are planning on visiting Madison for one or possibly two days in the next week or so. This is a leisure trip, planning on visiting a winery or two in the nearby area and enjoying the town.
I know Madison is known for vegetarian friendly food, but I was hoping for some suggestions. As far as plans go, we'll be eating at least one, but probably two breakfasts, lunches, and dinners in the city. I'd be content with trying six different places. No restrictions on price or cuisine type other than one vegetarian option is necessary on the menu. It doesn't matter if it's four star or no star, French or brewpub...

Recent reviews
2.7 /5 from 126 reviews
I really enjoyed my stay the location was close to all the clubs and bars so you don't have to drive so if you get drunk you can Uber or walk back to your room LOL
It was an OK place. Cons:The bed was a bit worn and needs to be replaced. The studio is sparse. A bed, a chair and a small tube TV. The bathroom could use an update. Studio No 9 is adjacent to the back kitchen of a restaurant. Hence, when in the room one can hear all noise from the staff. It only stops once the restaurant closes which is late. Pros: Close to the beach, restaurants and bars. The studios are located a block away from the main hotel. But you get to use all the facilities at the hotel. i.e., pool, restaurant. Beach pass for two beach chairs and umbrella is a bit plus! Without this, the cost is $15 per day. Parking available across the street at $35/day - pricey!
The floor wasn't clean, it has no kitchen, not all the photos are of this hotel, those are from another that you can use its installations but it is 2 blocks of distance.
The room was not in great condition but it has it's upsides. Its floors needed to be cleaned badly. The cabinets and fixtures had damage and need to be replaced. Also the windows are old glass panel windows, which fits the decor but does not allow the AC to work that well (unless at night). That all being said, there is one HUGE advantage to this place. It is its own studio apartment with a kitchenette, front and back door and no one in sight. It is basically like having your place, sure its your first apartment when you didn't even have a job, but its yours. Its location and style allowed me to seamlessly stop and go whenever I needed to without having to go through hotel lobbys, elevators and the gauntlet just to get in my room. Just walk right in and walk out, its was good for someone like me who was always coming and going. So, finally, I would say that the condition may have been poor but if you can get past it, the price and the freedom of the studio apartment make up for it. Maybe not completely, but certainly enough to notice.
The studios were nice and comfy for tghe price and being walking distance to the beach.... rooms are partially updated.. bathrooms should be more modernized.. that would definitely complete the look of the room... overall it was good and I would recommend and would def stay again.

Veterinary Clinic Steaming and Cleaning
Clean your entire veterinary clinic with a single Duplex Steam System consisting of floor cleaner, steam cleaner and steam vacuum cleaning equipment.
Given a large percentage of pets are admitted into veterinary clinics carrying various types of illnesses, infection and parasites; a great emphasis needs to be placed on daily cleaning and surface sanitisation to prevent spreading between four legged patients. Areas in veterinary clinics (vets) that especially require daily hygienic cleaning include waiting room floors, operating theatres, surgery benches, animal holding cages, sinks and walls.
The Thermoglide steam mop uses +120°C dry steam combined with microfibre technology to sweep, mop and disinfect surfaces in a single pass. The Thermoglide is also great for improving OH&S as it eliminates the repetitive injuries, slips and chemical use associated with the old mop & bucket.
At the press of a button Duplex steamers use +155°C superheated 94% dry steam to effortlessly clean, sanitise and deodorise both hard and textile surfaces. Steam is especially great for freshening fabric chairs
Be prepared for any unfortunate outbreaks with Duplex steamers that can effectively and efficiently decontaminate textile surfaces. AS 4187 states 'Moist heat in the form of steam under pressure is the most dependable, fast and economical method for the destruction of microbial life'.

I was attempting to revamp all my personal hygiene and cleaning products to a safety level of 2 or less on the Skin Deep Safety Scale and this one squeaked by. It takes some getting used to after using high powered whitening toothpastes with lots of chemicals, but I have to say that I have adjusted to it and feel that it makes my teeth very white and clean feeling. I have to use a generous amount to get that 'foamy' feeling when I brush. It tastes so refreshing!

My husband introduced this brand to me, and I loved the baking soda toothpaste he had. This one is ok as well, but to be honest I don't really fell my mouth clean after this. And not because of the taste! I hate minty toothpastes (they irritate my gums and tongue), it was good to find one wiht something else. :) Worth a try!
Cleans well; weird taste

I like Tom's products for their wholesome ingredients, however this product lost a star for it's flavor. I wasn't sure what to expect with "fennel" but I can now say that it's not ideal for a toothpaste.

It's good for its ingredients, but not so good for the results after using this toothpaste. I expected better taste and whiter teeth..

I give this product 5 stars despite the fact that I haven't used it. It was an error on my part not to have noticed that it contains SLF (sodium lauryl sulphate) which I don't want in a toothpaste as it aggravates my mouth ulcers (cankers). I will try an alternative toothpaste without SLF
