Shocked after visit
August 15, 2006, 11:03:09 am »
I lived in New Orleans for about three months almost twenty years ago. I've just come back from a conference there (I spent most of the time driving around, looking at what there was to see of what I remembered). I'm shocked, and scared for the city of New Orleans. It seems, from the areas I drove around (Metairie, where I used to live, Jeff. Parish, Garden district, CBD, etc.) that about 1 in 2 houses is occupied, many with trailers in the front yard; many others are abandoned, or "For Sale/For Rent" signs are posted in front. The community I used to live in is impossible to imagine at half-occupancy; won't the unoccupied houses become magnets for animals/bugs, or become the target of vandalism or places to do crack? The labor shortages are apparent everywhere; not only do things close randomly (presumably understaffed), but many of the people doing jobs are clearly untrained/inexperienced at them. It makes even the small tasks I needed to accomplish frustrating, but I can only imagine the frustration that must come from having to deal with this on a day to day basis, about really important things like home repairs or school enrollment; I wound up feeling like there would have to be a rise in violence, out of the sheer frustration and hopelessness of trying to do things in an impossible/very difficult situation. It also made me feel like drug use would have to rise; it seems like escaping, however you can (mentally, if not physically), might be something reasonable people would do. Many places are not taking credit cards, only cash; dust is thick everywhere, restaurants store cardboard boxes of goods in the middle of seating areas; the sidewalk is uneven and covered with debris. (I had packed closed-toed shoes fearing this and was grateful- you can't walk in a construction zone in sandals.) Even downtown, many buildings are unoccupied, abandoned or burnt out, even next to beautifully rehabbed law offices or swank hotels (themselves staffed by people who sit, stuffed into pretty uniforms, on break on the loading dock, chain-smoking and slack-jawed, staring into space as if reliving trauma. Given the amount of PTSD that must be present, in some senses its incredible that anyone is working, and perhaps no one should be, although that's not a luxury that can be afforded.). The scars are going to be enormous, and I can't see how to fix it. I want to believe it will work out, but the city is in many senses non-functional at the moment. At Riverwalk, two out of twenty or so food court stands are open- an amazing accomplishment, measured against the scale of the disaster, but far from functional. I worry that there will be a second wave, this time of economic dislocation; it is one thing for people to come back, perhaps because they want to return to their job, but if not enough people return to employ them, there's a problem. (I ran into a tour guide operator working in a gift kiosk because he said he had been starving as a tour guide, because no one was there to take tours. He said, "That's just how it is now." I heard a lot of that.) Restaurants are reopening, perhaps run by young and/or single people who can make do with fewer amenities for a while (e.g. schools, safe parks, etc.), but if not enough people return to eat in them, there will be a second wave of economic dislocation which will also be ugly. I don't know what to do. I want to help, and I gave $$$ when Katrina first hit, and I can and will give again, but on some level I want to do more, and I also want to connect with others who have seen this; I need some validation for my reactions. (I suppose on some level I hope it isn't so- that's the basic denial that always accompanies the first stage of mourning, I suppose.) Sorry for the length of this. All responses deeply welcomed. Anyone else been there and had reactions? (I know those who lived there at the time of Katrina have had very different reactions, as have tourists- I'm sort of in a funny, neither fish nor fowl< category.)

Gordon Banks is concerned that a lack of international competition is undermining Joe Hart after a week in which doubts were raised about the under-pressure England goalkeeper.
The Manchester City man was unconvincing throughout England's 4-2 defeat to Sweden and was at fault for the third and fourth of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's four goals.
And Banks, who was between the sticks for the Three Lions' 1966 World Cup triumph, believes the lack of quality back-up brought about by the "sad" international retirement of Ben Foster is key to this.
"I feel sad for people that do that, and I find it a little bit disrespectful [of Foster]," said Banks, who regardless rates Hart highly.
"All players should want to play for their country, and be proud of getting selected. Certainly in was dead proud to be walking out on to that pitch.
"While this is happening, there's nobody pushing Joe Hart. He needs somebody to keep him on his toes and playing good every game."
Beyond West Brom's Foster, manager Roy Hodgson's options extend to Celtic's uncapped Fraser Forster, QPR second choice Rob Green, Bursaspor's Scott Carson, John Ruddy of Norwich and Birmingham's inexperienced Jack Butland, but not one fills Banks with confidence.
"It's very hard to see who would be the one to put Hart under pressure," said Banks, who added that goalkeeping was more difficult in the modern game.
"Balls are so light they move all over the place now. They don't give goalkeepers a lot of chance."
Meanwhile, Roy Hodgson has closed the door on an England return for Rio Ferdinand and John Terry.

Such a dull and listless film. An utter waste of talent on Amanda Seyfried and Christoph Waltz's parts.

Adults may rip this a new one but no one (and I mean, NO ONE) can deny the fact that kids will be asking for this movie next month. You may call my notion B.S. but I know I'm right!

I liked this movie 20 years ago when it was Ferngully. I may just pop in the dvd tonight....
Jeyl Member Join Date: February 2008 Location: United States Posts: 188
As a 29 year old adult who saw Ferngully in the theater, I'm not afraid to admit that I liked this. I might pick it up.
Also, shame on you cover art department. This is not Nod's movie, it's Mary's movie.

So, judging by the comments here, this film should have been titled "Epic Fail" instead?

I wouldn't call it an epic fail. I would have just tackled a few things differently. It's really not that bad.

I have found the nurses at Pivet more than lovely and overly helpful, so I'm surprised and sad you've had that experience.
From what I know of the low cost options they put you on the pill to control your cycle dates and you'll go through with a group, so group info sessions and such, and a lot less monitoring, as in less scans and bloods.
It's not for me, but I can see why people would choose it if funds were limited and you had no major issues.

The number of abortions performed in New Zealand decreased in 2011, Statistics New Zealand said today. A total of 15,863 induced abortions were performed in New Zealand in 2011, 767 fewer than in 2010.
"The general abortion rate (abortions per 1,000 women aged 15–44 years) decreased from 18.1 per 1,000 in 2010 to 17.3 in 2011. This rate is the lowest since 1995 when it was 16.1 per 1,000. The lower abortion rate indicates that the decrease in the number of abortions was due to fewer women having abortions rather than to changes in the size or age structure of the population," said Dallas Welch, the acting government statistician.
In the year ended December 2011:
- 15,863 abortions were performed in New Zealand, the lowest number since 1999 (15,501).
- The general abortion rate was 17.3 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15–44 years, down from 18.1 per 1,000 in 2010.
- Women aged 20–24 years had the highest abortion rate (33 abortions per 1,000 women aged 20–24 years).
- The median age of women having an abortion was 25 years.
- Most abortions (62 percent) were a woman's first abortion.

Jean-Michel (Mich) d'Avray (born 19 February 1962 in Johannesburg, South Africa) is a former professional association footballer who spent the majority of his playing career at Ipswich Town. He is currently a development coach with South African Premier Soccer League club Bloemfontein Celtic.[1]
Club career[edit]
D'Avray's professional football career began when he made his debut for Ipswich Town against Southampton at Portman Road in November 1979.[2] Over the next 11 seasons he made more than 200 appearances for the club, scoring nearly 40 goals. He also had a brief spell on loan to Leicester City where he made three appearances during the 1986–87 season. He went on to play for Dutch club NEC Nijmegen 28 times between 1990 and 1992.[3]
International career[edit]
While playing for Ipswich, d'Avray won two caps for England at Under-21 level.[4] He scored once, against Italy to help England into the final of the 1984 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship.[5]
Managerial career[edit]
D'Avray started his managerial career in 1991 with the Moroka Swallows in Johannesburg where he remained for just one season before moving to the Cape Town Spurs. He was awarded the South African Coach of the Year award in 1993 before leading the Spurs to a league and cup double in the 1993–94 season.[1] From 1993 to 1997 he coached the South African Under-23 team, leading them out in 1994 for their inaugural game against Ghana.[6] He coached the squad for a total of 28 games, his final match coming in December 1997 against Uganda.[7]
In 1998 he moved to Australia to join A-League team Perth Glory as assistant manager before becoming manager in 2001. He led the team to the league title in 2003 and 2004.[8] and succeeded Lawrie McKinna as National Soccer League (NSL) Coach of the Year, winning the accolade in the 2003–04 season, the final time the award was made.[9]
D'Avray became Technical director of the Glory in 2005 but held the position for just one season. He joined Bloemfontein Celtic at the start of the 2008–09 season. In January 2009 he was replaced as Coach by Owen da Gama after a poor run of performances that left Celtic close to relegation. D'Avray remained on the staff as a development coach.[10]
He is married to his wife Angela and has 2 children. He holds a UEFA Pro Licence.[1]

One of the most thrilling things for a young sports fan is getting to take a picture with a favorite player. You frame it, show it off to your friends, post it on all the social media networks, etc.
John Beck O'Daniel, a 12-year-old Kentucky fan, had the privilege of taking a photo with Wildcat big man Dakari Johnson. He struggled a bit in the execution of the selfie, though.
Better luck next time, John.

Ca2+ signals regulate diverse functions in the developing nervous system, including proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs), migration of nascent neurons, and apoptosis. Although the role of Ca2+ signaling in the development of the nervous system is widely recognized, little is known about the mechanisms responsible for the production of Ca2+ signals in NSCs. Among the various mechanisms by which cellular Ca2+ signals are generated, store-operated Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels have emerged as a widespread pathway for regulating many Ca2+-dependent functions, including transcription, motility and proliferation. CRAC channels are encoded by the Orai genes, which give rise to three highly homologous proteins that are widely expressed in most tissues. Emerging evidence in our laboratory indicates that CRAC channels arising from the canonical Orai1-STIM1 proteins comprise a major route of Ca2+ entry in NSCs. Moreover, we find that Ca2+ influx through CRAC channels powerfully activates Ca2+-dependent gene expression through the transcription factor, NFAT, and regulates proliferation of NSCs. We hypothesize that CRAC channels are a key checkpoint for regulating gene expression, self-renewal, and differentiation of neural progenitors. The overall thrust of the present proposal is to elucidate the molecular and functional properties of CRAC channels in NSCs and illuminate their role for gene expression, proliferation, and differentiation of NSCs. Using a powerful combination of optical, electrophysiological and biochemical approaches as well as genetically engineered mice lacking CRAC channel function, we will: 1) define the electrophysiological properties and molecular machinery of CRAC channels in NSCs, 2) investigate the physiological activators of CRAC channels in NSCs, and, 3) illuminate the downstream functions of CRAC channels for gene expression, proliferation, and lineage commitment. Findings from these studies will reveal the role of an important yet unexplored Ca2+ signaling pathway for the biology of NSCs, and facilitate strategies to develop therapeutics based on the engineering of neural stems cells for neurodegenerative diseases and brain trauma.
Store-operated CRAC channels mediate vital functions in several cell types including immune, muscle, and other tissues, but their role in the nervous system remains unknown. The goal of this project is to understand the physiological role of CRAC channels in neural stem cells. Findings from these studies will illuminate how gene expression, self-renewal, and lineage commitment of neural stem cells are controlled and contribute to the development of stem-cell based therapeutic strategies to treat brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases.

Serves 4
Sweetened vinaigrettes are a useful way of adding sweetness to a salad. Here, honey is combined with a bittersour walnut oil and lemon juice vinaigrette, which in turn underlines the bitter-sweet nature of the lettuce leaves and walnuts. The salty feta cheese helps reinstate the salad's savory nature. It tastes wonderful. The same idea can be applied to a wide variety of combinations.
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
5 tablespoons walnut oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
a pinch of cayenne pepper, optional
3 Romaine lettuce hearts
3 green onions, trimmed and finely sliced
a handful of fresh mint leaves
1 cup roughly crumbled good feta cheese
a handful of walnuts
1. Whisk together the honey, lemon juice and walnut oil. Season to taste with salt, freshly ground black pepper and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
2. Separate the lettuce leaves, discarding any tough outer leaves. Wash and spin dry, then place in a large salad bowl. Rip any particularly large leaves. Add the sliced green onions, mint leaves, feta cheese and walnuts. When ready to serve, rewhisk the vinaigrette, pour on to the salad and gently mix. Serve immediately as a refreshing starter.

Understanding Energy Options: LNG?
The global energy focus is at a compelling inflection point and the Pacific north west has an opportunity to affect change pertaining to our energy mix. Speed and agility certainly play an important role for industry, however, serendipity is also needed in attracting both capital and consumer interest in the energy sector. Quoting one of our speakers, "We have labile objectives, incomplete knowledge and make decisions less rationally than we would like to believe." The upcoming GTEx Forum aims to provide insight and draw your attention to multiple variables in the energy debate including LNG and renewables.

Interior by Amgad Kamel, akinteriors.com.au At some point we've all splashed out on that trendy item, only to find that what was once cool is not so hot a month later. This might be fine when the item is disposable, but what about when it's your entire living room? Decorating and furnishing a home can be pricey, especially if you want to invest in pieces that will last. Choosing a timeless interior design is therefore essential and can be the difference between coming home to a look you still love and coming home to a look you've started to loathe. Amgad Kamel's 5 quick timeless interior design tips: 1. Avoid fashionable trends and focus on quality. 2. Avoid bright colours and think neutral palette. 3. Finishes should be of high quality. By looking at finishes from ten years ago, compare them to what's happening now and you'll get an idea of where the treads are heading. 4. Be careful you don't overcapitalise, especially if you are not planning to stay for more than five years. 5. Bring your own style to furnishings and fabrics, but keep the house design appealing to others as well. Looking for more interior design ideas?
