Harvard University was just a phone call away – and Rachael Estell couldn't answer it.
The Mountain View High senior was in class two weeks ago when the number from the Harvard Admissions Office popped up on her smartphone. She so badly wanted to know if her top choice – academically and athletically – was calling with good news.

Skin Treatments
Are harmless small pieces of soft, hanging skin. They can appear anywhere but usually where skin rubs against skin.
Topical anaesthetic may be used to prepare the skin as the cautery is uncomfortable.
High Frequency cautery
Your Dr can also use liquid nitrogen or cut out larger tags
Are commonly found on the face and are easily seen.
These little vessels can be quickly and easily cauterized with an ultra-fine needle. The effect is instantaneous with some skin redness and sometimes some temporary swelling. Expect some healing time
High Frequency cautery
Areas of uneven skin colour which mostly occur from UV light when the skin is inflamed, possibly from heat trauma or sensitized by increased hormonal activity
An assessment is required to ascertain the depth of the condition. Usually additional skin care items are required to interrupt the pigmentation cycle and to protect the skin from further damage
Deep-seated pigmentation is referred to a Dermatologist
Dermal needling
Vitamin skin infusions
Suitable anti-oxidant and peptide treatments
This is an ongoing inflammatory skin condition which may have periods of remission that affects almost 1 in 10 adults. It is associated with patchy swelling which may become pustular, but no blackheads. The cheeks and the nose can be cherry red. Rosacea is aggravated by exposure to the sun, heat, alcohol and spicy food.
Rosacea can be managed with success.
An intense skin treatment program over a month is recommended, followed by monthly maintenance treatments. These may include:
Dermal needling
AHA light skin peels
Oxygen skin treatments
Gentle vitamin skin infusions
LED light treatments
UV radiation (amongst other things) ages skin, especially those with fair complexions who have less natural protection. Our supporting skin structures such as collagen and elastin fibres become less viable as we age. Natural moisture (hyaluronic acid) in our skin is less and fewer outer protective cells so …

I find the staff, environment, products and the technician (Linda) to be of an excellent standard. Friendly, approachable and professional.
I have been going to Linda for years. She provides an outstanding service combining her skills, professionalism and the use of products proven to get results. There is no hard sell here. The results speak for themselves. I regularly receive very positive feedback on my skin and continue to recommend Linda to others.
Hi Linda, thank you so much for your help with my skin. I'm sending you a testimony in support of the work you do: "I used to hate my skin and had almost accepted nice skin wasn't for me, and never left the house without make-up. Having followed Linda's recommended skin regimen my skin is now something I can enjoy ..make up or not!"
Until I started going to Linda I believed that there was no such service available – sure I had been to beauticians for a feel-good pampering, but I was always aware that it never actually made any measurable difference to my skin. However, since going to Linda my skin is smoother and never dry anymore, the wrinkles are less visible and I've had no acne in that whole year. (Even my husband has noticed the improved quality of my skin.)
Linda customizes treatments per visit so I feel very comfortable knowing I am getting more than just a visit to the beauty therapist
"Linda is very knowledgeable and she has provided very good service. Always responded quickly to any queries I've had and suitable products and treatments recommended"
My skin is amazing! My husband has seen such a difference that he wants to have a talk with you for getting the same for himself. Thank you so much – couldn't be more thrilled.

The GN's build up had recently been completed and this was intended to be a soft pass with only 20# of Boost. The camera person was there to film the car's reaction to the launch for tuning purposes. They were so focused on the GN that they did not notice what was happening to the Corvette until it was over.

Reusing recycled abrasives in waterjet cutting?
A ruby garnet recycler thinks he has found a recipe for turning recycled material into a reusable abrasive
When it comes to waterjet cutting, most metal fabricators rely on virgin garnet as the abrasive that's used in conjunction with the waterjet stream. After cutting is concluded, the abrasive can be collected and recycled as a filler for other construction-related products. An Auburn, Wash.-based company, however, thinks it has found a way to take the recycled material and return it to an almost-new state.
Troy Cain plays down his educational background, saying that any advanced schooling he received occurred only in the U.S. Marine Corps, but if you know anything about that branch of the military, you know Marines are famous for adapting and overcoming. Well, it also applies to waterjet cutting.
While Cain is not personally involved in fabricating metal, he has firsthand knowledge of the waterjet cutting process. He has been in the parking lot maintenance business in the Seattle area for 17 years, and as an offshoot of that business, he has been cleaning the cutting beds of waterjet machines in nearby fabricating facilities for several years. Also as part of that business, he was charged with hauling away the sludge (see Figure 1)—comprised of water, abrasives, and metal fragments—and delivering it straight to the landfill.
Now because the Puget Sound area is a hotbed of aerospace manufacturing, these fabricating shops cut a lot of parts on waterjet tables. (Waterjets are the preferred device for cutting these types of parts because they offer high-tolerance cuts and do not create a heat-affected zone during cutting, which could change the original makeup of the metal.) That also means that the shops create a lot of waste material.
Living in the environmentally conscious Pacific Northwest, Cain recognized that there had to be a way to recycle the waterjet cutting byproduct so that it didn't end up in a landfill. Nearby customers already were interested in recycling their spent abrasive—The Environmental Coalition of South Seattle has honored two of Cain's waterjet cutting customers for saving more than 2 million pounds of spent garnet from the landfills—but they weren't using any once-used garnet for waterjet cutting. The problem is that no one has been successful on a large scale in turning used garnet abrasive into a reusable product for waterjet cutting.
Today some recycling of the quicksand-like material takes place, but it results in a product that can be used as a filler only in asphalt and concrete products. Cain said that large-scale recycling efforts that he is familiar with don't separate the byproduct to leave a garnet material that is good enough to be used as a born-again abrasive for waterjet cutting.
"I began to do a little research," Cain said. "The only reason that they have to take it to the dump is that it is used in-process. There could be metals in it.
"So I thought if we could get the metals out and dry it, we should be able to recycle this stuff for reuse," he said.
For the past year Cain said he has taken the waterjet waste material and worked with it in his company's indoor facility. It wasn't until recently that he found the right combination of drying time and screening that resulted in separation of the water from the abrasive, the good abrasive from the rest of the materials, and the metal and water from the remaining abrasive that is destined for asphalt and concrete applications (see Figure 2).
In fact, Cain calls the entire process "completely green." The metals are recycled, and the water is perfectly clear after treatment.
The recycling effort also produces reusable garnet material of about 80 to 90 mesh, or grit, the measurement used to describe the size of the abrasive particle. Cain said that 80 mesh is the preferred size, but some metal fabricators don't mind the 80- to 90-mesh mix if it saves some money.
Garnet is usually used as an abrasive in a waterjet stream because the fairly hard gemstone is widely available. When individual grains fracture, they expose sharp edges, which are ideal for helping to remove metal in a highly pressurized water stream. Suppliers of garnet typically crush the material as part of processing, exposing the sharp edges desired for waterjet cutting. Cain said the abrasive generated from his recycling process is the suitable size and shape for reuse in waterjet cutting applications.
"Here they are just getting used to the fact that recycled garnet can be used and it works just about as good," he said, "unless they are cutting with a 50-grit, which is a very large size grit."
He added that the recycled abrasive also could be used for another untapped market, sandblasting. With the cost of the recycled material being less expensive than unused garnet, Cain said the future looks promising.
"People want to start these recycling facilities all over the place if it works out," he said.
Leave it to a Marine to overcome a simple recycling challenge.

My family has tent camped at this park many times, and this was the first outing with our new-to-us hybrid travel trailer. We picked a pull-through site to avoid the stress of backing in, but plenty of the non-pull-through sites would work for different size travel trailers. Keep in mind that at this park (and most VA state parks) you reserve a TYPE of site, and then pick the site when you get there from what is available. We picked site #10, and loved it.
It's a wonderful and quiet park with mature trees all around. Our site was more or less level, and was in good shape. There's plenty to do at the park. Swift Creek is great for canoeing or fishing, and the water park is good if you have young kids. Unfortunately, though, many of the locals use it as their public pool, so you will encounter some sketchy individuals at times. We prefer to camp here in the spring or fall, when the pool isn't open. This will definitely be our go-to park for a quick weekend getaway. - SteveMM

Like most state park campgrounds Pocahontas offers large sites. The entire park could be explored with many hiking trails and watercraft. Unfortunately the CCC museum is closed on weekdays at this time of year so we missed that feature. We were able to hike on some of the trails. It's an excellent state park. - rvrose

Several long level paved pull through sites for the traveler. Park is mostly long term combination of workers and local military. Mostly well kept. Immaculate bathhouse. Pool looked inviting, but we did not use. Small fishing lake, where our Golden Retriever enjoyed a swim. Convenient to I85, just south of Petersburg. Worked well for us for an overnight, we would probably return. - 2hams

Our first visit and an unexpected pleasure. Was a bit concerned as no reservation confirmation was received (later learned that was their norm), but from our arrival all concerns were put to rest. Again, this was an overnight stop for us, but it had everything a family with children would want. Nice large pool, fishing pond, large grass play space and a playground for the younger set. Our pull-thru site was long, level and paved. Office featured a well stocked store and very friendly and helpful staff. Great find. - Dunwoodyradio

We were visiting family in the area and needed a place to stay. This was the only campground we could find nearby that was open. When we arrived around 1 in the afternoon, there was a note on the office door that no one was available to call a phone number. We called the number and were told to pick a site that the owner would return after 4 in the afternoon. We drove around the campground where there were large trees and could not figure out where each campsite began and ended or the amenities at the site. We finally parked by the office and walked around to find a campsite. We discovered that they had a paved area where we could park for the night. We pulled into one of the sites, unhooked the RV, and started setting up. The electrical did not work. We had to hook everything up again and try and different site. The second site did have electric, water, and sewer. These sites were in an open parking lot with no trees. When the owner finally came by, she did not have change for cash so she only charged us $30 instead of the usual $35. She told us her husband died in 2008 and she was trying to run the campground alone. It appears that there has been very little maintenance in many years.
We will NOT stay here again. - Athens4me

Older park not in great shape, but only one in the area open all year. They have seasonals on the wooded sites; we were there only for a night, so they put is in the big gravel lot where you park bumper to bumper with other units and there is very little space in between. But it was winter & wet and we did not get stuck! We would have been more disappointed if we had not read the reviews first, but very little choice in the area for winter! - chasing60

I was not informed over the phone that cell phones do not work anywhere in the area nor is there a public payphone or internet. There is a lot of alcohol present. The facilities are dirty and in disrepair. The showers clog up. People are charged for use of things including pool which is dirty and is only a plastic lined pool. The sewage hook ups do not properly work and you are charged to dump at dumping station. There are long term campers that are loud 24 hours a day. Refunds are not given. - Dawn-Michelle

This a small self-contained only park is on the front end of a mobile home park screened by trees. The office has a night registration board, mail slot was hidden behind the board, no way to tell if an empty site was reserved. Other than a small playground, there are no amenities here other than site hookups. There is road noise from Rt 1 but it quiets down at night and the very bright security light would make those staying closest to the office think that a UFO is about to beam them up. No cable, but local OTA channels are good with the standard antenna. Most sites have clear satellite access. Most are level pull throughs. The voltage may drop on a warm sunny day when they have a full house. Good place to stay for a few nights if visiting the area. - Trailbuddy

We had a pull-through, but found that the sewer connection was at the back of the site. It was either go buy more sewer house or unhook the toad, so we unhooked the toad. No problems hooking up the water or electric. The road and sites were gravel and with all the rain that day, there were puddles, especially around the sewer connection. The site was level. There was no cable TV, but antenna and satellite worked fine. The Wi-Fi was spotty, even using a booster. There is no one in the office over the weekend, and you register on the weekends under the porch, near the office door. - Bbtj

We really appreciate the Americamps. We have stayed there many times when visiting family in Richmond. Now that we live in Richmond we use them to prep the coach prior to our long trips. We move the coach from our storage location to Americamps for a couple of days to get it ready for travel. They are just so nice and accommodating. The RV park is convenient for I-95 travelers, clean and well maintained. It is a bit pricey but it is really the only nice alternative in the immediate area. - Allure470

We have stayed here on many occasions, generally for the first night out and last night before returning home on north/south trips. The staff is friendly, campground clean and convenient to I-95. We were pleasantly surprised on arriving to discover they were hosting a "Spanish" New Year's Eve dinner. Also, love the morning Pancake/waffle breakfasts! We will continue to return. - dandd

This was just an overnight stay for us. Sites are quite close but a pull through site accommodated our 40 foot RV with toad. Restrooms and showers are very clean. Nice dog park.
Easy access from main highway but traffic noise at night could be an issue.
The office and community buildings were spotless! Staff pleasant and eager to provide assistance.
The free waffle breakfast is fantastic! Juice, Keurig coffee cups, tea, hot cocoa and fruit cocktail complement the fresh-made Belgian-style waffles.
Grounds are well groomed. - Lab Lovers

We stayed here in a 36' 5th wheel w/3 slides and a F-350 DRW truck. Gravel, FHU, pull-thru site was adequate size for both vehicles with good space between campsites. Interior roads are dirt and somewhat narrow but we were able to navigate and park with no problems. Picnic table and fire ring at sites. Did not use the restrooms/showers but the ladies room appeared clean. Decent laundry room. Most sites are heavily wooded. Our site (#A-9) had good reception for DirecTV roof mounted satellite and Verizon WiFi and cell phone. Did not use park cable or WiFi. Close to I-95; park was quiet with very little traffic noise. We would stay here again when in the area. - Moneypenny

South 40 RV Park is a nice place to stay for someone traveling through or even for a week or so. It is close to I-95, and easy to get to from exit 41. There is Civil War stuff to see not too far away. Just up Rt. 301 is shopping, and many restaurants. The facilities are old, but, clean and well kept. The water is good. It is fairly quiet, and peaceful. I heard a train far away, and some traffic noise at night, but it was not disturbing at all. - Jimal

Rope Selection Guide & Information
Searching for the right rope for your job can be overwhelming. Over the years, manufacturers have produced a variety of ropes for a variety of jobs. Each rope has unique strengths and weaknesses. Particular ropes are well suited for certain jobs and not others. Some ropes have a wide range of capabilities, but there is no "one size fits all" rope. Don't let the variety scare you. You need the right rope for your job. Here is a guide to some of the most common ropes including their strengths, weaknesses, and which one will be right for your situation.
If you happen to be looking for rope to build a net, we have an excellent guide to netting. The guide includes rope, webbing, and all purpose netting.
Rope Material Properties and Use Cases
Polypropylene Rope
Polypropylene ropes are synthetic and possess a variety of unique qualities. Polypropylene rope is particularly suited for use around water and will not rot due to water and is resistant to mildew. This rope is also produced in a variety of colors making it a common choice for barriers at golf courses, parks or even power plants. Because polypropylene floats, it is used to designate swimming lanes in pools. Commercial fishermen commonly utilize this rope, especially in crab and lobster lines. It can also be used for buoy moorings, aquaculture, and net lines.
Pros & Cons
- Positives: dielectric/insulator, floats, water resistant, lightweight, low-cost, UV resistant, color variety.
- Negatives: stretches (although this could be a positive), susceptible to friction.
- Most Common Uses: Work around electric lines, marine applications, swimming-lane barriers.
Extraordinary Qualities
Dielectric ability is an important quality of polypropylene rope. Should this rope touch a live electrical wire it will not conduct the electric current. Because polypropylene rope acts as an insulator, electricians and tree workers who work around live electrical wires use polypropylene rope. When using this rope for hauling or hoisting, attention should be given to any abrasions against the rope as it can melt from friction. Polypropylene also lacks stretch memory. When stretched, it will not return to its normal size.
This rope has wide capabilities. If you need a strong rope to be used in or around water, or if you anticipate possible exposure to electricity, then polypropylene rope will be your best choice.
Shop Polypropylene Rope Products
Manila Rope
The natural strength and all around utility of manila rope has made it the standard for quality rope. Manila rope consists of all-natural hemp fibers. This creates aesthetic appeal commonly used for decorative fences or other landscaping purposes.
Because of susceptibility to liquid absorption and UV decay, the user should be careful of sustained tension on the rope especially when exposed to the elements. Manila's absorbing quality makes it the first choice for many physical activities that require direct handling of the rope. For purposes such as tug of war, climbing, obstacle courses, or stage rigging, manila rope absorbs perspiration providing better grip. This rope will not hazardously snap back when broken as other synthetic ropes may. For a quality natural rope that is aesthetically appealing and safe for active handling, manila rope is an excellent choice.
Pros & Cons
- Positives: Visually appealing, snap-resistant, low-cost.
- Negatives: Not UV or water resistant, may harden or rot over long periods of time.
- Most Common Uses: Pulling, decoration, landscaping, rigging.
Shop Manila Rope Products
Nylon Rope
For superior strength and remarkable stretching capabilities, nylon is the rope of choice. Stronger than both manila and polypropylene, nylon commonly finds itself pulling the heaviest loads and bearing the most weight.
Having superior strength, nylon also maintains a smooth surface and its resistance to abrasion makes it ideal for pulley systems or winches. Also, different fall protection systems or rescue line assemblies are constructed from nylon rope. Within these applications, the strength and elasticity of nylon will be most beneficial.
Pros & Cons
- Positives: Strong, smooth, abrasion resistant, UV resistant.
- Negatives: Absorbs water, weakens in water.
- Most Common Uses: Towing lines, anchor lines, pulleys, winches, tie-downs, fall-protection systems.
Extraordinary Properties
While both manila and polypropylene are susceptible to UV damage, nylon rope is resistant to UV, chemical exposure or any other form of rot. Despite the fact that water can weaken the strength of nylon, this effect is so slight that nylon is still commonly used for mooring lines and anchor lines. In fact, nylon rope is a great choice for any tie-down because of its strength, stretch, and sustenance in any environment. The all-around durability of nylon rope makes it useful for any job in any situation.
Shop Nylon Rope Products
Polyester is considered by some to be the best general purpose rope. It's also one of the more popular choices for household applications, but don't let that fool you. This rope is tough.
Polyester rope may not be best for some industrial applications. It does do great in the outdoors and tough elements of nature. Used for home use by many for clothes line this rope is great. From the boat to the backyard.
A few uses for this rope may include: winches, dock rigging, blocking, or simple household applications. It can also be mistaken many times as Nylon with many fine details in differences. Largest difference being it's resistance to chemicals.
Pros & Cons
- Positives: Rot and UV resistant, retains strength when wet or dry and abrasion resistance.
- Negatives: Not made for heavy duty use.
- Most Common Uses: Rigging, winches, general household uses.
Shop Polyester Rope Products
Kevlar Rope
Few innovations in the past century have been as remarkable and useful as Kevlar, invented in 1965 and produced by DuPont. Among its many uses, Kevlar materials have been used for bullet-proof armor and flame resistant material. Kevlar rope is no less remarkable. Pound for pound, Kevlar rope is far stronger than steel and it will not rust. For this reason, Kevlar rope is used as mooring lines on oil rigs and ships. While nylon rope has certain elastic abilities, Kevlar rope has very low stretch, making it an excellent choice when complete stability is needed.
Pros & Cons
- Positives: Strongest rope, freeze resistant, flame resistant, chemical resistant, water resistant, stretch resistant, cut resistant, UV Resistant Coating.
- Negatives: not immune to damage.
- Most Common Uses: Winch lines, mooring lines, helicopter slings[2], temperature extreme situations.
Extraordinary Properties
Because of its polymeric properties, Kevlar material is susceptible to UV light and should not be permanently exposed to UV rays. Unlike any other rope, Kevlar rope is flame resistant. This rope can resist temperatures 500° F before it begins to weaken, and Kevlar will only strengthen when exposed to subzero temperatures.[1]
One should be aware of any signs of wear on Kevlar rope, as the integrity of the rope can be more seriously compromised than the damage makes it appear. Kevlar's qualities are best demonstrated in extreme temperature conditions, or any time sheer strength is required.
Shop Kevlar Rope Products
Styles of Rope
Ropes are not only made with a variety of materials (manila, polypropylene, nylon, Kevlar, etc.), but any given rope can have different styles of braid or twist. Twisted rope appear in the form of a spiral and are created by twisting at least three strands of yarn in alternate directions. This alternation prevents the rope from unwinding, while also making it easy to splice. Because of the speed of their manufacturing, twisted ropes tend to be less expensive.
Braided ropes take on a rounded form and are generally smooth. This feature allows them to be used in high-friction situations like winches and pulleys. During the longer and more expensive process of braiding, several fibers pass above, below and around each other. This relatively recent innovation provides a rope that will not twist, but cannot be spliced.
Several different ways of braiding provide different qualities. Solid braid ropes are a complex braid that may have a filler core. They have high elongation but less strength. Diamond braids rotate fibers over and under one another in opposing directions. A filler is usually placed in the center of this rope giving it moderate strength. Double braided rope can actually be understood as a rope within a rope. One braid is formed over another braid to share the load evenly. Double braided rope is a favorite for boaters, but should be used with caution in manufacturing situations.
Words of Caution When Working with Rope
Use of Working Loads
Because of the wide range of rope use, rope condition, and exposure to the various factors affecting the
rope, it is impossible to make blanket recommendations
as to the correct choice of rope to use. However, we have provided the tensile strength for each diameter and type of rope. These strengths are based on tests of
new and unused rope, with appropriate splices. Proper choice, care, and inspection of the rope are essential for reasonably safe use of the rope. Consult your cordage
vendor for proper use.
Dynamic Loading Voids Normal Works Loads
Dynamic Loading occurs when rope is subjected to sudden or extreme stress. Figures given as working loads are
void if rope has been subjected to dynamic loading,
high temperatures, long periods of load, extreme stress, improper use, or storage.
Effect of Temperature on Tensile Strength
The tensile strength charts apply to ropes tested at normal room temperature (70°F). Ropes have lower tensile
strength at higher temperatures. Continued exposure
at elevated temperatures causes permanent damage.
Rarely can you walk in to your local hardware store and find a full selection of rope types and sizes. Online stores like US Netting not only offer a full selection of all types and diameters of rope, but they will cut to length the rope you need! Matching the right rope to the right job will not only make the job easier, but it will also make the job safer.

How much does a Saltwater Aquarium Cost
How much does a Saltwater Aquarium Cost per year, and what are some beautiful but easy fish to keep?
If you already have all of the proper equipment, it isn't too bad. The biggest costs are the initial set up and your livestock. It will also depend on what type of saltwater set up you are going for. Hope that helped.
I just realized you want a cost to maintain once its set up.
All depends on what lighting you get
What if any Sump/Fuge you get
What Reactors you use
If you plan on Carbon Dosking (ie- Vodka Dosing)
What Salt you use
What type of Corals
What kind of Fish
Question has to many variables to answer.

Yes, indeed. But of course, back in 1999 when X1 was filming, it was a more uncertain time for comic book movies.
However, there is no such excuse these days.
X2 is solid but not epic, and while X3 did have a good amount of scale and excitement, it didn't have strong enough filmmaking to sustain itself. First Class is an odd one to explain.
I certainly do hope the X-films reach their full potential. While the Marvel Studios films aren't perfect by any means, they never hold back. And Nolan's Batman films haven't held back either.

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
In responding to a philosophy or system of truth devoid of any Christology, Paul returns to two core convictions found in his opening confession of the Lord Christ (1:15-20). The first claim is that Christ is the personal and complete revelation of God within history (2:9-10; compare 1:19). The second claim is that Christ rules over every other power within God's created order (2:10-15; compare 1:18). When we embrace these two christological convictions, Paul says, we participate with Christ in the abundant fullness of God's salvation.

Negative and Positive Integration in European Immigration Policies
The increased salience in the 1990s of immigration politics in the European Union has been accompanied by a rise of the scholarly attention for this topic. What most studies leave aside, however, is the question of how European integration impacts on national immigration policies. This paper differentiates between types of European integration and presents empirical evidence from the case of the Netherlands. It analyzes to what extent and how issues related to free movement, asylum and citizenship are affected substantively by European integration. The paper concludes that how Europe impacts on domestic politics depends on the question of why Europe should be involved at all.

Having laid to rest the ghost of Tony Jacklin last month by becoming the first Englishman to win the US Open since that son of a Scunthorpe lorry driver in 1970, Justin Rose and his fellow English golfers are still haunted by the ghost of Sir Nick Faldo at the Open Championship.
It is now 21 years since a son of St George has lifted the Claret Jug – and here we are back at Muirfield, scene of that Faldo victory in 1992. The last player to win the American and British Opens in the same year was Tiger Woods in 2000. Before that there was Lee Trevino in 1971.
Rose and Faldo played nine holes of practice together yesterday. Maybe the stars are aligning again during this Great British Summer of Sport. The new world No 3 will begin to find out if he is still touched by that Merion magic as he plays the first two rounds of the 142nd Open with defending champion Ernie Els and American Ryder Cup player Brandt Snedeker.
"The Open Championship as a British player is the one event you look forward to more than any other," Rose said. "Coming here off the back of my first major makes it even more special, even more exciting than normal."
Rose has been parading with his US Open trophy all week. But it is the Claret Jug that he wants now. At least the R&A gets the silverware engraved with the champion's name. Rose said the tightwads at the United States Golf Association leave it to the champion to do his own engraving. Presumably they would rather he does not scratch it on with a kitchen knife or a sharp stick.
"I'm hoping to get a two-for-one deal this year," Rose said, revealing that the engraver at Muirfield is going to add Rose's name to the US Open trophy. "I'm hoping to get a discount for bulk," he said. He might be a multimillionaire major champion residing in Florida but he has not lost his British eye for a bargain.
Life has changed for Rose, though. When he arrived at Muirfield for the 2002 Open he was only four years removed from that chip in at Royal Birkdale that made his name, followed by the 21 missed cuts in a row after he turned professional. He and his pal Ian Poulter drove into town in an Austin Powers-style Jaguar splashed in Union flag livery.
"Ah the Shaguar, as it was called," Rose said grinning. "That was obviously all a bit of fun. The nose was so long on that Jag, I touched the front wall as I was parking," he said. No such flash statement of youth this time. Rose is now 32 and a serious contender on the world stage. "There's times in my career where I haven't been able to close out tournaments as well as I'd like. I now believe in myself 100 per cent down the stretch," he said.
An English pal and Ryder Cup colleague hoping to ride Rose's wave of optimism is Luke Donald. If this is The Year The Nice Guys Can Win, Donald is a worthy candidate to join Rose and Masters champion Adam Scott. "They've had similar career paths, up until they won a major, to myself," said Donald. "I feel like, hopefully, my turn's coming. They've stepped up a gear and I would love to follow in their footsteps."
Donald plays with Scott and Matt Kuchar. He senses Muirfield's demand for precision over power suits him perfectly. And the list of past champions here (that includes Faldo, Trevino, Els, Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus) also gives him hope. "It does tend to bring out pretty solid golfers," he said. "You don't get many unknowns that win at Muirfield. I like that. And it's not a course that demands power off the tee. It's more about precision. Hopefully, that's good for me."
Meanwhile, two other Englishmen have remained uncharacteristically under the radar this week. Enter Lee Westwood and Poulter, dangerous lurkers emerging from the shadows into Muirfield's heatwave.

Salt Spring Island Art
I have found it! The perfect Salt Spring Island art for me. Not a watercolour or a pastel. Not a wood carving or metal statue. Not a poem or pretty photograph or elaborate woven basket or simple wool shawl. Of course, there are lots of those to be had though. My favourite art on Salt Spring Island is of the soft, mushy, melt in your mouth, can't stop eating variety - cheese!
Hand made Salt Spring Island goat cheese, in fact. A soft, delicate chevre that grabbed my heart and soul and left me wanting more.
On our first day on the island we rode our motorcycle up to the farm shop (newly paved roads are a plus) and bought two flavours - Garlic and Basil. On the second day we were back for more, tried Lemon and Pepper, but bought Chili and White Truffle. By the third day we were highly addicted and managed to grab some White Truffle from a local grocery store on the other side of the island before heading back to our cabin for the feast.
Day four - you guessed it - three packages of White Truffle, a loaf of artisan bread and a bottle bought from a nearby winery. Full on addiction had set it.
David Wood, the "head cheese" (pardon the pun) officially recognized us on day four and gave us a welcoming smile that I have to believe is as famous as his cheese. The dogs ran up to us like old friends.
The Salt Spring Island Cheese Company is open daily. I recommend going in the morning to grab a cup of complimentary coffee and relax on their inspiring patio before indulging in your first, but not last, bite of cheese.

The deiodinases initiate or terminate thyroid hormone (TH) action. Studies pioneered in my laboratory unveiled that the activating deiodinase (D2) and the inactivating deiodinase (D3) can locally increase or decrease TH signaling in a tissue- and temporal-specific fashion. In other words, D2 and D3 determine the intensity of thyroid signaling independently of plasma T3 (the biologically active TH. Our studies revealed that these mechanisms can be modulated by a wide variety of signaling molecules such as the hedgehog family of proteins, bile acids, HIF-1, NF-B, and a number of xenobiotic substances. These studies have indicated that deiodinases play a broad role in the control of metabolism, the understanding of which is the focus of this application. Our publications and preliminary data show that the activation of the D2 pathway accelerates energy expenditure. At the same time, disruption of the D2 pathway (D2KO) reduces cold-induced and also diet- induced brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis. Furthermore, we have found that the D2KO mouse develops a striking metabolic phenotype, including obesity, marked hepatic steatosis, glucose intolerance and insulin resistance. Mechanistically, we found that adult D2KO BAT has a permanent defect that stems from impaired embryonic BAT development, with decreased expression of genes defining BAT identity (Dio2, PGC- 11, UCP1) (12). This discovery underlies a role of deiodinase-controlled TH signaling in brown adipogenesis, with metabolic repercussions for energy homeostasis in adulthood. On the other end of the spectrum, the D3 pathway terminates TH action, decreasing energy expenditure as we have shown in hypoxic myocardium and brain. Our studies indicate that this novel adaptative mechanism is operant in settings ranging from BAT to brain. This proposal investigates the deiodinase paradigm from the perspective of metabolic control, examining the effects of D2 and D3 on metabolic function in adult animals, but also on their role in the development of BAT. The novel findings that (i) D2 plays an important role in the development of BAT, leading to (ii) a metabolic phenotype in adult animals, and that (iii) D3 is induced in response to hypoxia, form the basis of this proposal.
Achieving tissue-specific control of TH is a high-value objective for investigators in the fight against hyperlipidemia. Seen in this light, understanding the metabolic role of deiodinases must be considered a worthy goal, since this group of enzymes represents the best known physiologic mechanism for achieving local/selective control of TH action. Thus, our proposed investigations into the mechanisms underlying this phenotype could have significant implications for our understanding of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and hyperlipidemia, establishing D2 as a drug target in the treatment of the metabolic syndrome. In particular, the finding of hepatic steatosis in D2KO animals offers a tantalizing hint of a previously unexpected role (whether direct or indirect) for D2 in the regulation of hepatic lipid homeostasis.
