The Zagat Review
"Huge crowds" congregate at chef-owner Chris Bianco's "legendary" Downtown pizzeria (with an offshoot at Town & Country Mall) for "unforgettable" pies that are full of "smoky flavor" and crafted with "attention to detail"; "attentive" servers navigate the "rustic", "elbow-to-elbow" dining room, and there's a wine bar next door where you can "sip while you wait."
Zagat reviews are compiled from individual user reviews. Write your review.Write your review.

>The frequency of mitotic recobination can be strongly

Such as?
The only thing that I know of that increases mitotic recombination is
VERY HIGH doses of irriadiation. Probably high enough that your whole
body will become one mess of cancer cells if you were close enough to
a hosta receiving enough radiation to have a cell undergo mitotic
recombination. Maybe you will be the one who will volunteer to stand
next to the hosta while it is being irriadated!
On second thought, better not as I don't think the world would know
what to do with a glow in the dark Ben.

Dear beloved creature, axis of my arcane realm
Every waking moment I strive to be within reach
Of the heavenly thrill that is your infinite embrace
Yet for some foolish reason you yearn to drive me away
This asinine heart of mine burns with everlasting passion
To caress you and croon romantic lullabies into your ears
Up until the very second that you collapse into my arms
If only you possessed as much passion for me as I for you
Darling please let me hold you, I promise never to harm you
What I wouldn't dare to give to experience the undeniable power
Of your precious lips against mine, To be cherished for all eternity
Oh, how I imagine just the two of us lying in enchanted beds of roses
Upon the sands of the beach just holding hands; Fingers locking into place
Softly swaying to the mesmerizing symphonies expelling from the sun

Around the Farm: October 22
|T.J. McFarland
Here is the rundown of what Indians players in fall and winter ball did yesterday.
Arizona Fall League
- Jesus Aguilar (1B): 1-for-4, R, 3 K. Aguilar is still hitting .354/.466/.667 in 12 games but he has cooled some after a hot start going 6-for-21 with 7 strikeouts in his last 5 games.
- T.J. McFarland (SP): 3.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K. Another very good outing for McFarland who has now made four starts in the AFL and is 2-0 with a 1.46 ERA.
- Cory Burns (RP): 1.0 IP, 5 H, 3 R/ER, 0 BB, 0 K, 0 HR. Burns was a strike throwing machine throwing 15 of his 19 pitches for strikes, but he was in the zone too much as he got hammered for 3 runs on 5 hits. In his last two outings he has allowed 6 runs on 9 hits in 2.0 innings.
Venezuelan Winter League
- Rob Bryson (RP, Bravos de Margarita): 2.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K. Bryson with a perfect outing with 6 batters up and 6 batters down. His first appearance in over a week as he last appeared in a game on October 14th.

Law and Irresponsibility by Scott Veitch
Book DescriptionLaw is widely assumed to provide contemporary society with its most important means of organizing responsibility. Across a broad range of areas of social life - from the activities of states and citizens, to work, business and private relationships - it is understood that legal regulation plays a crucial role in defining and limiting responsibilities. But Law and Irresponsibility pursues the opposite view: it explores how law organizes irresponsibility. With a particular focus on large-scale harms - including extensive human rights violations, forms of colonialism, and environmental or nuclear devastation - this book analyzes the ways in which law legitimates human suffering by demonstrating how legal institutions operate as much to deflect responsibility for harms suffered as to acknowledge them. Drawing on a series of case studies, it shows not only how law facilitates the dispersal and disavowal of responsibility, but how it does so in consistent and patterned ways. Irresponsibility is organized, and its organization is traced here to the legal forms, and the social and political conditions, that sustain 'our' complicity in human suffering. This innovative and interdisciplinary book provides a radical challenge to conventional thinking about law and legal institutions. It will be of considerable interest to those working in law, political and legal theory, sociology and moral philosophy.

Nice small, comfortable, well kept campground if you plan on visiting the canyon. Only 28 sites - sites 22 thru 28 have electric, shared water and are spacious. Sites 23, 25, 27, 28 are dog friendly. Good wash tubs outside restrooms for dishes or clothes. - Breezy2

Would give it a higher rating but no cell or internet service. Mostly level sites. Some a little hard to get into with a big rig. Great dump station and fresh water setup. Nice bath house. Shares parking lot with the main canyon visitor center. Gift shop and education center. The place to go and stay if you want to see the canyon. I would go there again. - camper19709

Leonard Harrison state part has a rather small campground. A campground map is available from the Pennsylvania State Parks web site. All non-electric sites are among trees. Sites 12, 14, and 19 are among some tall pine trees and are great for hammocks. The electric sites (except for 23 and 25) are in the open. Avoid site 6, it is right next to the pathway to the bath house. The bath house is fairly new. There is only one shower in each of the men's and women's rooms. There is a family rest room that also has an accessible shower. - kanling

We have stayed in this campground about 5 times although we had not visited for about 6 years. Overall, it is nice although sites around the lake are crowded. Worst of all, for us, was the free WiFi service which was worse than it was years ago -- VERY slow and then you get thrown off. There is no excuse for this horrible service except that the owners won't install something we campers can use reliably. We would rather pay extra for good service than have free what is basically useless. When you can't even check your email, that's bad! - RCMicki

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign..... As you drive through the park to get to your site, there's a sign about every 15 feet warning you to slow down and other rules of the park. I can imagine during a fully packed park, being careful as you drive around since there are lots of children running about, that safety would take precedence. But the warning and caution signage makes you feel like you are constantly being watched.
Campground was close to the Wellsboro area and the staff was helpful. If I were staying in this area, I'd look into a different campground. - techieguy

This campground was known for problems in past years. New ownership cleaned it up. I liked the campground but felt the seasonal campers acted like they owned the place and weekenders were not welcome. I've been camping a long time and this is the only campground I had something stolen while camping. Needs to remove seasonal campers who think they own the place & might be a suitable campground. But if you don't have a $40,000 camper expect to be treated like dirt by the permanent campers who do. - DQRhodes

This is on the west rim of the PA Grand Canyon . It is a beautiful area here . The thing about this campground is it just as the CCP left it in the 1930"s . Very rustic and pretty . A great place for hiking and tent camping too . - GDM

Canyon Country is the polar opposite of campgrounds with 'cookie-cutter housing development' layouts featuring row upon row of identical sites. Lots of trees, varied - almost random - sites in a rustic setting. An out-of-the way campground, to be sure, but not impossible to find. Owners very nice. Most sites and interior roads could benefit from a new layer of gravel to control the mud created when it rains. We would stay here again. - RamWagon
Aug 2015 - $36.00
Sites and roads are a little tight. The main entrance area is also a bit confusing. The main office is nestled in the campground not at the front of the park. Make sure you get directions from the main office or you will be taking some scary dirt roads if you follow your gps or smart phone.
The amenities are fine, nothing really to complain about. It's just a bit rustic. Everything could use a new coat of paint, but it wasn't dirty...just needs a bit of updating.
There is not a ton to do locally after you spend some time looking at the PA Grand Canyon (it's pretty) and maybe drive around to antique. I don't think I would go back, not because of the campground, but more because there isn't a lot to do in the area. - 4njcampers

We love the Wellsboro area, and this was our third visit to Canyon Country Campground. The campground is small, rustic, and privately-owned, which is nice since you get personalized attention from owners and their dog Misty. The whole campground is heavily wooded, which increases the sense of privacy, although (as with most campgrounds) you cannot reserve a specific site and you are placed on the smallest site that will accommodate your rig, even if larger sites are available. This time around we were placed on site 3, which accommodated our 26' travel trailer well enough, but required creative parking in order to fit my truck on the site as well. We wound up having to squeeze the truck in along the front edge of the trailer and at the very edge of the woods, which didn't leave us any room to walk around the entire truck. I saw other campers park their tow vehicles perpendicularly at the rear of their sites. The sewer pipe is the non-threaded type, so you will need either a rubber sewer hose seal, or use some of the plentiful rocks to weigh down the fitting end. Also, the sewer hose is mid-site, and my RV drain is at the rear of my rig, and this particular site is un-level enough that my sewer hose had to run uphill from my camper to the pipe. I remedied this by placing more rocks under my sewer hose support to get the hose more level, but I still had to manually lift the hose along its length as I was emptying the tanks. There is no cable TV here. Our antenna didn't pick up any channels, and we had very weak cellular service (although there is a pay phone by the office!). Wi-Fi is available only in close proximity to the office, and the network is password protected. The rate chart says that only the first hour is free, but the owner told us that the policy is in place just to keep kids from hogging all the bandwidth, and that he wouldn't charge us if we went over an hour (we wound up not using it anyway). Speaking of kids, there is very little for them to do here... except to actually, you know, CAMP. The "playground" is very small, and the game room houses only a pool table and an air hockey table. But there is a nice trail that you can use to hike to Leonard Harrison State Park and the edge of the "Grand Canyon" which we love taking our dogs on (takes us about 15-20 minutes). We didn't use the bathrooms or showers, but I did check them out and they looked very clean. There is also a laundry and dish washing station available. This is our go-to place when we visit the area, and we look forward to returning. - gmanfan1966

The camp host/motel manager was very amicable. The road into the campground was composed of gravel needing some grading and low hanging trees. Unfortunately our entrance of bottom scraping and tree branch slapping did not impress us and damaged our RV. We were assigned site 9. The site was grass and gravel with full hook-ups. All other uninhabited sites were grass only. The water at our site was a light rust color and smelled strongly of iron. The campground is located behind the motel on a very green and lush looking hill, making for difficult leveling of our motorhome. Our children (ages 6 and 4 1/2 ) were not interested in the dilapidated playground. In general, the campground was very private and we pretty much had it to ourselves. I would not recommend this campground to any motorhome owner due to the difficulty getting in or out without damage. - TnCBurns

This campground was very nice. The bathrooms were very clean and had recently been remodled. The owner was very helpful and check in with us to make sure we found everything. I would have given it a 10 but the hookups were in the middle of our two sites and you had to have two sewer hoses to reach. Other than that it was a great place to camp. We will be camping there again and I would recommend it to anyone. - Tweety Girl

Park can be a "tight squeeze" with big equipment. The roadway in the entrance has a 10 ton limit, and the roads are narrow. Be careful. However, once you get yourself situated, this is a well-patrolled park. Didn't observe any bad acting. Quiet and family safe. We are here now and the heat this summer in general and this week has been oppressive. Luckily the A loop site we are in has 50 amps. No water or sewer - sites across the way do on the water side.
Hiking trails are suitable for all age hikers. Little sandy beach area with pavilions is cute. There are several large group areas sprinkled around. Yurts and cabins look attractive. Wellsboro is a nice little spot with some shopping and rainy day destinations like a theatre and some nice restaurants- mom and pop and fine dining.
I hear the fishing is good but I've come up empty. Tackle Shack outside of Wellsboro is well stocked. - Johnboronkay

Jun 2016 - $41.00
Rated this park low since we had trouble getting in & out of the park, along with having a problem with the roads within our camping loop. The main entrance to the park has a bridge with a 10 ton limit so we had to take a back route into the park over unpaved county roads. Once we got to our site we were able to back in with minimal issues to a large shady site. The road leading out of our site was twisting with trees close to the curves. The last curve we barely made it past a tree. I ended up having to cut some branches off of a tree to avoid scratching the sides of our motorhome. The park itself is nice. There is a small lake in the middle with a hiking trail around the water. Several spots to launch canoes or kayaks. On our site were were able to get a satellite signal along with a weak AT&T signal (using a booster it was OK). Strange numbering system for sites with missing "numbers" along the way; so be careful or you will drive past your site. DEFINITELY not big rig friendly. We would not use this campground again in our large rig. - Co-Mike

We enjoyed our long weekend here. It is a very nice clean campground.The owners were nice and friendly. Our site was a large grassy area that was level and easy to back into. The restrooms were clean. The store was stocked with a little of everything and had good prices. There were no planned activities for children at the time of our stay. The cable was great and so was the Wi-fi. It is about a 10 minute drive to the town of Wellsboro. We will stay there again I am sure. - joinpa

Lovely little gem in the middle of nowhere. We were actually looking for another park, but when we passed by Twin Streams we decided to turn around and go back. Glad we did. This place is kept up really well: even the Seasonal Sites were in great shape. The managers were most gracious and let us pick our own spot, based on our needs. We chose a site in the middle of the wide open green grass. I felt like I was in a giant park. A few trees in the middle grassy area which gave us a little shade as the sun was setting. We were just passing through. Wished we could have stayed longer. - mauigirl7254

Campground had a lot of seasonal sites. We were parked next to a seasonal site. Campers arrived at their site next to us around 8pm. Split firewood for about 15 minutes in pouring rain, then, set outside with family under canopy with campfire and played loud music until 11pm. They fixed things around their camper, banged & clanged until about midnight before going in. Problem is, no one in office to complain about noise because of the lateness. Quiet time is 11pm until 8am. Also, paved roads, but no stoned or paved pads, your unit parks in the grass. It poured rain the entire evening. Owner was very polite & helpful when we arrived, but we would not stay there again. - 99Chevy

We arrived late for a quick overnight stop. Really enjoyed the remoteness of the Pine loop, there are some beautiful sites there if you can go without hookups. After a night of heavy rain your rig will need a good wash upon exiting - road from Pine to the main campground is unpaved. Would definitely stay again! - TCNG

This is a beautiful campground. The sites are well spaced and well maintained. With the exception of Pine Loop, all sites have E/W. Most of the site #s below 100 also have sewer. The sites have a paved pad, a table, and a fire ring. Satellite reception is available but reco having a portable dish. ATT service is only "off-network" but Verizon is 2 bars. No wifi at all.
My biggest gripe is site specific reservations, we travel ad hoc so to stay for a week we've had to change sites 3 times. Reservations should only be amenities specific. You want E/W/S? Guaranteed but not the specific site. - HoliRambler1

Interagency Senior Pass 50% discount for a 50 amp electric and water site. Site had a concrete pad that was slightly off side to side so we had to block tires on one side. There were a couple trees that had low hanging branches that rubbed the motorhome. We had good satellite reception, but the trees will interfere with many sites. We had good Verizon cell/MiFi reception. This is a quiet and pleasant Army Corps of Engineers park. We would stay here again. - Dave51

This is a terrifically fun park for the kids. We camped here as our last stop on a 10-day camping trip and the kids did not want to leave. The facility has too many things to mention for the kids to do and all are included in the fee which seemed a little high until you see what you get with it. The rest rooms and showers were well-kept and the park was packed when we visited. The only negatives for me was the park gets very crowded to the point that you feel that there is not enough space between campers. Most of the sites were deep and narrow, not real ideal. We ended up with a site that had the sewer for our neighbor about 15' from our door. Not a huge deal, but would have preferred a little separation. And the roads are gravel so don't bother washing and waxing before coming here as you'll be leaving dirty. But that was the only negatives I could think of from a wonderful stay. My kids want to know when we are going back and I can't blame them. - tdslsmo

This park came highly recommended. However we booked it for 5 days and left on the 2nd day. This park was very run down and in great need of updates. The sites are way too close together, the neighbors septic hookup is only 1 foot away from our picnic table which is right up against our camper!! Our septic hookup was right beside our neighbors table. Although there is lots for kids to do the play grounds are in bad need of repair. There was tons of trash all over and there was no stone or grass on our site. Everywhere I looked there was mud. We will never come back here again. I can honestly say that this is the worst un-kept campground that we have ever been to. - emtjewel

Dearly Beloved...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: 9
We are gathered here today to honor the life of a great shoe. From the mountains of Montana, to the repeatedly kicked wires under my desk, to the depths of Moabs Canyons. These shoes have served David far longer than they should have. Though David couldn't bare the thought of letting them go, the day finally came when they just couldn't hold on any longer. Incredibly, though the soles David had almost worn completely through, the speed-lace held up to the very end. (He thought that would be the first to go...). This is a much older model, and they were his everyday shoe. Maybe, just maybe there is a place where old shoes go to run one last time. A place where they no longer stink, where the fabrics are restored, and they can make someone happy for the first time again. Though the body of the shoes will no longer be, the sole will live on in the many adventures had together.
You will be missed....
10-Mile Hike Right Out of the Box!
Maybe the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever owned. I was able to do a 10-mile hike on the first day I got them. Day two in them was even better. My first hike in them was in the snow and ice in Ohio. My feet stayed dry and did not get cold. The way these shoes tie is incredible. When tightened, the inside of the shoe kind of forms around your foot. So, the Fitbit perfect without being tight or uncomfortable. I have wide feet with a titanium screw in a bone on the outside of my left foot. So, there are a lot of shoes I can't wear. Because the shoe kind of forms around the structure of your foot, I experience no discomfort from the screw at all. The treads on the shoe are made of good, durable rubber. Great shoes and worth every penny!!

I've had 3 iterations of this shoe. for me the quick-lace and gore-tex rock, durability is marginal, fit is roomy for my flat feet superfeet insoles adapt the way. The inner lining has given out early on me, they wear right through; the heel mostly. returned the most recent pair after a couple hundred miles because of a stitched seam in the midline of the heel cup just wouldn't wear in. 3 months and the liner wore through and I couldn't shake the blister when pushing it. Took em back. Gracefully Salomon replaced them. Onward

I wear these every day and will never wear another shoe. These are actually my second pair after my first ones gave out after 3 years. I've worn them in the snow, sand, and rain and they've held up great. The waterproofing holds up really well, and they're supportive where they need to be. Mine have taken me from Mt. Katahdin in Maine to half dome in California and back to the office every Monday.
A bad a$$ shoe run a little narrow.

When I first purchase these over a year ago I really didn't know what to think. They were tight on my toes and not too comfortable. I now use these as my weekend hiker and I love them. After a year, of use the lugs are still strong the waterproof membrane is intact and there are no visible cracks in the sole. The shoe is in good condition for the amount of hell I've put them through. I still am not going to go any farther than 6 miles. Overall, I really like the shoe and they look great. I might have purchased something else only because the narrowness and the time it took to break in.
Excellent for hiking
Used on all terrain - and climbing. Lightweight, firm steps. I really like the pull string laces - no worry about shoe laces coming undone and when you tighten them they tighten across the whole foot. Very comfortable
Duck feet

I am biased because Salomon shoes fit me better then any others (especially with the cinch lacing system) - but these rock. And ice. And mud. And sand. Wore through slush and frozen roads this winter. Also in Utah on a recent trip- dry happy supported feet. I have a similar version in non gortex for summer. Previous generation in hospice as my lawn mowing shoe. The sole is semi-flexible (I have run on worse- this is Goldie locks of flex for a winter off road show) but even across gravely berms and rocky beaches I haven't had any issues with stone bruises. Have tried others with water repellant- and had cold sad feet.
good shoes
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought these for my son and found that it's pretty on par with what others have mentioned on them. The sole is stiff which he didn't always love. Several good hikes and I can see the soles wearing a little on the fast side. That being said the sole's grip solid and secure and I've found a really good sole to wear out a bit faster than one that does not.
third pair; wish that they lasted longer

- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 11
I admit to being a trail runner/ approach shoe junkie and this is my third pair of these. The latest pair, while true to size for me, has slightly less volume than the previous two pair. My only gripe is that the soles just do not wear as well as the rest of the shoe. The soles are down to no cleat long before the upper would be shot. I agree that the shoe is tortionally stiff but really like that part...
Nice Choice

So far so good.

Got these for hiking and disc golfing in the PNW winter. Been using them for about 2 months now, and can report back-- pretty good. They do take some breaking in (got hot spots on my Achilles and pinky toe) and they are a little on the bulky side. I would not use them for running, as they are too heavy for my taste. Moreover, as I am a forefoot striker, they have too much of a heel-toe drop to comfortably run. However, they have kept my feet dry after walking through some gnarly muddy/wet conditions, and they are quite grippy on most surfaces...mossy and wet logs/rocks might be the exception to this rule, but that's true of every shoe I've ever owned.
I'm sure this is a great product for what it was intended for, I was not expecting it to be this stiff.
runs about 1/2 to 1 size smaller
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: 11
I have found that the newest version of this shoe runs about 1/2 -1 full size smaller than a previous pair(s) that I have owned from about 3-4 years ago. I little annoying as my previous pair(s) are some of the comfiest hiking / trekking shoes I have owned. I'm going to be returning in hopes of getting a larger size.
50,000 stairs later...
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 9.5
I hiked in the Inca Trail in Peru this past summer and purchased these as compromise between train runners and hiking boots. They held up great and I really liked the quick lace up system. They were tight on my feet which was an absolute Godsend as the Inca Trail has tens of thousands of stairs that are all different widths and heights, with uneven surfaces. The traction was phenomenal. I chose the Gore-Tex models over the CS WP ones because these will also be my normal backpacking shoes and wanted the H20 protection (which was excellent. I walked in several streams to test it). That being said, they didn't breath as well as one might hope. The other thing I noticed was while the support was good, the cushioning wasn't very substantial. Given that I was walking on stones all day my feet were sore by the 5000th stair or so. This may happen with any shoe on that trail, but I might invest in some insoles to save me feet a little in the future. Overall, it's an excellent shoe with good support, tight fit, arch support, and good waterproofing. I've already recommended it to both my dad and best friend for a lightweight hiking shoe.
Breathability and waterproofness
I just did some comparing between these and the Salomon XA Pro 3D Ultra 2 GTX Trail Running Shoe and the Gore-Tex Extended Comfort lining in this shoe has a better waterproof rating and breathability.
An evolving shoe....
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
This is the second pair of Salomon's that I have purchased, in the last two (2) years. The first set is ready for retirement, after reasonably strenuous use. The new pair is quite similar, but with a few important deviations.
First, for those of you not familiar with this variety of Solomons, they may be defined as a cross between a low cut hiking boot and a running shoe. My sense is that they tend a bit more towards the former: sturdy, with a protective, moderately stiff sole and excellent side support. Without question, they can be utilized for moderate distance hiking. However, I am not in the category of the strenuous, long distance hikers. My experience has been limited to light treks in the Alps and some of the challenging trails at Acadia.
If you are an experienced runner, trying trails for the first time, the shoe may seem a bit disconcerting: it is heavier than street running equipment. On the other hand, it provides protection from one of the nastiest trail elements: rocky, uneven terrain. I tried using a pair of good quality, New Balance street shoes on a rugged trail; not fun. I could feel every rock and pebble. Not so with the Solomons. One gains protection, along with weight.
You will either like the quick lace system, or find it an annoying curiosity. I have grown used to it; a kind of bemused tolerance. However, I have recently learned, through a Backcountry associate, that Solomon sells a re-lacing kit. This probably falls into the category of "assembly required". For me, this causes little difficulty. I merely, politely, ask my wife to undertake the task.
The major difference from prior incarnations is the arch; it is what would be termed "high". For my anatomy, it is very noticeable. I have a low arch or, to be politically incorrect, flat feet. While the shoes seem to be breaking in, nicely, it will always be a trait of the footwear. My only suggestion is to try it for yourself. BTW: the Gore-Tex is excellent.
Great review!
Yeah I agree, great review and I just wanted to say if you have trouble with the lacing kit most REI and Salomon store employees can help you with that. I always do it free of charge for people who visit our store and the lace kits always run for no more than 5$. Youtube has great tutorials as well, I would just recommend having scissors, a needle, and lighter on hand to get the job done. Cheers!

On the one hand we have those who are currently trying to convince us that London is enjoying a renaissance in culture and fashion, while on the other are those who imply, as in "A capital vision - from Spain" (29 October), that London is somehow in need of rescuing.
With all the attention lavished upon the capital, it is small wonder that Londoners are perceived as arrogant and self-obsessed and the capital consequently despised by many across the nation.
Just how good does London have to be to satisfy its spoilt inhabitants? There is no reason why Birmingham, Sheffield, Leicester and other cities attempting to transform themselves cannot also learn from Barcelona's rejuvenation.
The focus on London's "plight" amounts to a tacit disregard of cities far more in need of such attention. The implication is that we can all go to pot just as long as London twinkles and shines.

From the `Scientists for the New Century' lecture delivered by the Zeneca lecturer in analytical sciences to the Royal Institution
SCIENCE AND technology now dominate nearly every aspect of our lives. But what could we say has been the greatest scientific achievement of our century? The 20th century has been an epic phase of discovery in which the fundamental scientific principles laid down in the centuries before have been refined and redefined, and our description of nature is almost complete.
If honest, most scientists would come to the conclusion that the most fundamentally important scientific revolution of the 20th century is due to the development of the quantum theory, which reduced the mystery of matter to a few postulates. The standard model created has been uniquely successful in predicting the properties of everything from tiny quarks to the behaviour of huge stars.
Although the quantum theory is the most fundamental revolution in this century, it is not the most tangible scientific revolution for the man in the street. That honour goes to two other great revolutions, which were facilitated directly by the quantum revolution.
The first began in 1948 with the very first transistor. This was a quantum mechanical device that performed a simple function - altering an electric current and allowing one circuit to switch another on and off. This device formed the basics of modern electronics and heralded the birth of the microelectronic revolution. The integrated circuit had been born, the last requirement for the computer.
Early computers were approximately 50 billion times slower than today's computers. Today the smallest elements printed on the most advanced microprocessor chips are less than one millionth of a metre in length. This high degree of miniaturisation means that today's computers are able to perform tasks that were unimaginable even 10 years ago.
The second revolution was the genetic revolution that was announced to the world in 1953 by Francis Crick and James Watson. They discovered the rather important molecule, deoxyriboneucleic acid, or DNA. DNA demonstrated the way in which the molecule can unravel, replicate and then pass on the genetic information contained within it.
So. The quantum revolution has, in turn, given birth to both the computer and the genetic revolutions, but what does it hold for the next century? Importantly, it represents the result of the natural synergy between the microchip, and the new biology and chemistry.
That marriage has given rise to a new generation of analytical instrumentation, called a laboratory-on-a-chip. The goal is to create microchips that do not solely perform electronic functions, but primarily perform chemical and biological functions.
Of the top 10 causes of death in the Western world, nine have a genetic contribution. By extracting the information contained within our own personal genetic blueprint we can in many cases infer susceptibility to both infectious and hereditary diseases. If we can make our instrument small, the cost of making it should be much less. We shall need much smaller amounts of sample in our analysis. Using less material will reduce the cost per analysis. If our instrument is portable we can take it to the sample rather than bringing it into a laboratory. This will change the face of health care in the next century.
The past five to 10 years have demonstrated that we can create microchip devices that are capable of performing all sorts of chemical and biological analyses. The challenge over the next five years will be clearly to define the primary application areas, which we may as yet not even have identified.
In many ways the modern-day micro-technologist can relate to Gulliver's problems in Lilliput, but always concludes that in the realm of biochemical analysis, smaller is better.

Comment The claim about Avenged Sevenfold is disingenuous. (Score 2, Informative) 171
With their usage of the term "unsigned," they're trying to imply that nobody had heard of the band previously, when they were in fact on two labels that were at the time pretty well-known in the metalcore and punk scenes (Good Life and Hopeless). They happened to be in between contracts. Whoop-dee-doo.

Justin Bieber Spotted Wearing Gas Mask in London
Justin Bieber was spotted out and about in London wearing a bizarre gas mask.
Bieber had dinner at upscale restaurant Mr. Chow in Knightsbridge before heading to 45 Park Lane hotel to hang out with friends and his entourage.
It's not the first time the singer has been the man behind the mask -- he baffled onlookers when he donned the creepy plastic and rubber gas mask last month.
Bieber turned 19 last week and tweeted that it was the "worst birthday ever" after being turned away from Cirque du Soir nightclub because his group included several underage teens, including Will and Jada Pinkett Smith's 14-year-old son, Jaden Smith.
He then kept fans at his concert Monday night at London's O2 waiting more than an hour past the scheduled start time before he took the stage.
Bieber's troubles didn't begin in 2013 however. He ended 2012 amid an outrage over photos of the singer allegedly smoking pot at several parties.

Which Joe gave his name to 'sloppy joes'? We look at five interesting sandwiches and their lexical origins.
Definition of tibia in English:
1The inner and typically larger of the two bones between the knee and the ankle (or the equivalent joints in other terrestrial vertebrates), parallel with the fibula.
- 'Miss Rowley, 29, broke her tibia and fibula bones and underwent two operations which resulted in her left leg being half an inch shorter than the right.'
- 'However, as a 4 year old he had a fractured tibia and fibula.'
- 'The earliest members of the group had two separate leg bones, the tibia and fibula, just like humans.'
- 'The cause of Blount disease is unknown, but it causes abnormal growth at the top of the tibia bone by the knee joint.'
- 'Bruce Latimer, director of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History in Ohio, said an ankle bone and tibia discovered at the site proves the creature walked upright.'
- 'X-rays later revealed that both the tibia and fibula bones in Marcus's right leg fractured.'
- 'The kneecap is then moved across to the outer side of the knee to expose the knee joint behind it, between the tibia (shin bone) and the femur (thigh bone).'
- 1.1Zoology The tibiotarsus of a bird.
- 'A bird with a broken tibia popped off her own cast after a week.'
- 'The bird's tibia (lower leg bone) has been fused with some of the upper bones of the foot to form the tibiotarsus.'
- 'The left tibia was removed from each bird, cleaned, and marked for identification.'
- 'Severely affected birds may have a marked bowing of the tibia, be reluctant to move, and have a stilted gait.'
- 'The crest is the round disc of bone attached to the upper part of the tibia that acts as a kind of lever for the bird's movement.'
- 1.2Entomology The fourth segment of the leg of an insect, between the femur and the tarsus.
- 'The second segment, or tibia, is also long, and in most species is equipped with a line of wicked barbs pointing outward.'
- 'The femur-tibia (FT) feedback system of the stick insect is one of the best known motion feedback systems in arthropods.'
- 'Both sexes have a pair of 'spurs' on each hind leg where the tibia, or fourth leg segment, joins the tarsus, or foot.'
- 'The claw is closeable over its entire length and the prey is fixed between the femur (upper arm) and the tibia (lower arm) of the insect leg.'
- 'In addition to the pretarsus, tarsus, tibia and femur, insects have two proximal (closer to the body) segments not shown in the figure.'
Late Middle English: from Latin, 'shin bone'.

This scent was "meh" it had nothing interesting to it and the scent didn't hold up very well in my CP. It wasn't awful but I won't be ordering it again.
Tina from Bramble Berry replies...Hi Brook! I'm sorry this fragrance wasn't your favorite. We love the warm and buttery blend of our Chai Tea Cybilla Fragrance Oil! If you're looking for other sweet and spicy scents you may prefer Gingersnap Fragrance Oil, Arabian Spice Fragrance Oil, or Cinnamon Sticks Fragrance Oil.
I love ordering fragrances from brambleberry because they generally are a never fail for me. But this FO I will never order again. To me, it smells like vomit. I can't justify making anything with it, it's absolutely horrible! This is the first time I have anything negative to say.... :)
Kelsey from Bramble Berry replies...Hi Julie! I'm sorry this fragrance wasn't your favorite. We love the buttery sweet smell with hints of spice notes in this fragrance. If you're looking for spicier scents, you may like Arabian Spice Fragrance Oil, Zanzibar Spice Fragrance Oil, or Spiced Mahogany Fragrance Oil.
This has a very sweet floral scent that does NOT smell anything like traditional Chai tea. It doesn't have the Cinnamon, Cardamom, Clove scent, its just a sweet herby scent. I first ordered it and thought it was a mislabeled bottle, so they sent me another bottle, but it's just the fragrance. I don't like this at all, and my customers agree that it smells nothing like Chai Tea. I will not purchase this FO again.
I was looking for a true chai scent, but this is much more like a Christmas scent, like a wassail. It is missing all the Indian spices that I expect from a chai. It's not bad, just not really chai.
Terah from Bramble Berry replies...Hi Amber! I'm sorry you were disappointed in this fragrance. We love the sweet and spicy scent of the Chai Tea Cybilla Fragrance Oil. We don't have another chai option but if you're looking for other spicy scents you may like Arabian Spice Fragrance Oil, Cinnamon Sticks Fragrance Oil, or Spiced Amber Ale Fragrance Oil.
On my cp this ended up being very sweet and the spiciness of chai didn't come through at all. I've waited over a month for it to cure and no change. Disappointing. People arm to like it for what it is, but I'm just calling it sweet vanilla.
Terah from Bramble Berry replies...Hi Christine! I'm sorry you were disappointed in this fragrance. While the Chai Tea Cybilla does have a sweet buttery smell, we've found that it also has some nice spice notes that we just love! If you're looking for other spicy scents you may like Arabian Spice Fragrance Oil, Pumpkin Spice Fragrance Oil, or Spiced Mahogany Fragrance Oil.
