3 reviews of Ed's Chowder House, first by you?
May 27, 2011
Had my sister's graduation dinner at Ed's - service was really poor. Our waitress seemed like she was in a hurry to get us out; never once came by to check on us. The manager had to come by to introduce himself. The appetizers were great…

Wow! Best lobster bisque I've ever had!
My husband took me to Ed's for my birthday and I was blown away...the food was fantastic, the service was great, the décor – white leather banquettes, rich, dark wood, mirrors & crystal - elegant but not stuffy - I loved it! I'm…

Just not good enough for the money disappointed
After reading rave reviews from Time Out magazine, I made sure to run over for a sampling. For a $70 lunch I expect clams in my clam chowder. The ladies sitting next to us and had the trio of soups and said they didn't like any of them.…

(This information is a guide only. Find out more about the figures and diagrams in our job information)
What you will do
Radiation therapists may do some or all of the following:
- work with radiation oncologists (cancer specialists) to plan and deliver treatment
- take x-rays or computed tomography (CT) scans and patients' measurements, to help to plan radiation treatment
- use computers to work out the amount and length of radiation treatment to give
- make immobilisation devices, such as masks, to keep the body still during treatment
- prepare patients and equipment for treatment
- deliver radiation treatment using high energy x-ray machines
- educate the public and patients about radiation therapy and its side effects.
Skills and knowledge
Radiation therapists need to have knowledge of:
- radiation treatment methods and radiation equipment
- radiation physics and how radiation affects the body
- anatomy, physiology and pathology
- basic nursing techniques.
Working conditions
Radiation therapists:
- usually work regular hours and may also work weekends and be on call
- work in oncology departments at public and private hospitals.
What's the job really like?
Michele Gatfield - Radiation Therapist
It's all about the patients
"In the beginning seeing people having treatment was one of the hardest things to deal with. But I realised it's no good if I'm a mess; it's not going to help – it can't be about you.
"You're meeting new people every week. Some people you see during their long course of radiation therapy and you form bonds with them. You learn their stories."
Perfectionism is vital in this role
"We're perfectionists. It's really important to have the patient set in the correct position, because once you give a dose of radiation you can never take it back. We treat the tumour while avoiding as much normal tissue as possible.
"But we are protected – the treatment rooms have very thick walls to shield us. It's likely that you get more radiation from flying or watching TV than working as a radiation therapist."
Variety of working styles
"We have to adapt to each environment we work in, and to the different techniques that doctors have for treating cancer. It's challenging, but that's what keeps you on your toes and makes you a better radiation therapist."

Entry requirements
To become a radiation therapist you need:
- a Bachelor of Radiation Therapy, or another qualification recognised by the Medical Radiation Technologists Board
- to be registered with the Medical Radiation Technologists Board.
The Bachelor of Radiation Therapy is only available from the University of Otago's Wellington campus, and there are only 30 places on the course each year. However, you can increase your chances of being accepted on the course by:
- having strong NCEA Level 3 results, or at least one year's university study in science and psychology
- showing you have an interest in, and knowledge of, radiation therapy
- having experience working in a hospital.
- University of Otago Wellington website - read more about the Bachelor of Radiation Therapy
- New Zealand Medical Radiation Technologists Board website - information on registration
Secondary education
A tertiary entrance qualification is required to enter training.
You must have the following NCEA Level 3 subjects:
- English or a language-rich subject, such as classics, geography, history, art history, te reo Māori or te reo rangatira
- maths (with statistics or calculus)
- biology or physics.
Personal requirements
Radiation therapists should be:
- understanding, patient and empathetic
- accurate and careful, with an eye for detail
- able to work well under pressure
- safety-conscious
- excellent communicators
- good at planning and organising
- good at research
- good at problem-solving.
Useful experience
Useful experience for radiation therapists includes:
- any work involving helping or caring for people
- work in hospitals
- experience with organisations that work with people who have cancer, for example CanTeen or the Cancer Society.

- University of Otago Wellington: Department of Radiation Therapy
- (04) 385 5583 - email@example.com - www.otago.ac.nz
What are the chances of getting a job?
Demand for radiation therapists is reasonable because:
- only about 30 radiation therapy students a year are accepted for training
- many radiation therapists leave New Zealand to get experience overseas
- about 10,000 New Zealanders need radiation therapy for cancer each year, and as the population grows and ages, the number of people needing treatment will increase.
Most radiation therapists work for public hospitals
Most radiation therapists work in the oncology (cancer) departments of the six public hospitals offering radiation treatment in:
- Auckland
- Hamilton
- Palmerston North
- Wellington
- Christchurch
- Dunedin
Others work at the three private cancer treatment centres in Auckland, Tauranga and Christchurch.
- Coleman, K, director and head of radiation therapy department, University of Otago – Wellington, Careers New Zealand interview, October 2014.
Progression and specialisations
Radiation therapists can progress into management roles or teach in a hospital or university. Many radiation therapists work in hospitals overseas to gain further experience.
Radiation therapists may also move into roles working in sales and marketing of radiation equipment and cancer drugs, or developing new radiation technology.
Radiation therapists can specialise in:
- treatment planning
- CT scanning
- treatment delivery
- clinical education and research.

Just because US Robotics introduced a couple of Skype phones a few weeks ago doesn't mean they can't introduce another one, this time, the cordless USR9630. Its base station (can't use the word "dock" lest you think we're talking about the ubiquitous iPod) plugs into a standard phone line as well as into a PC running Skype, making it a dual purpose phone for the ages. Four handsets can be connected to any one base station at a time so it actually could be a decent phone for families or small businesses looking into trying out Skype a little more seriously. Of course, you could just use the USR9630 as a "normal" telephone, but that's a little self-defeating. The USR9630 makes use of DECT 6.0 technology so as to prevent any sort of interference with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, microwaves, your homemade SETI dish, etc. The phone is able to communicate with the base station up to a range of 150 feet indoors and 900 feet outdoors. It also takes advantage of several Skype-specific features, like the system's voice mail and caller ID. Sorry, Phone Company, we're all about choice. Advertisement Advertisement The USR9630, which only supports Windows 2000 and XP-based systems, should hit stores in September for around $120. Throw in the accompanying USR9631 Accessory Handset and you're well on your way to Skype-qulaity phone calls and fun for the whole family.

A penny a day,
A penny a day i tossed into that old wishing well, around the corner hoping to see my love again. I think its worth the cost,for the love i lost,
my heart is so sad.oh how i miss her smile and laughter,, i miss her,
sweet unforgetable honey glazed tasty,soft lips, I can still hear her soft whispering,
voice saying , I love you baby each day, A penny a day i tossed into that old wishing well,cuz i miss her,love oh so tenderly,
oh how I need her sweet,enticing,exciting, love, I just need to break this spell of loneliness, cuz i miss the smell and scent of her beautiful skin, the sexy curve of her hips,
her wild flower eyes, her sunfllower presents,, her styling hair down to her gorgeous feet, oh how i miss that sexy look upon her face. her warm embraced, and the way she walk,
and talk, i smile with joy, A penny a day i tossed into that old wishig well, oh moma said there'l be days like this,its alright son,maybe someday she'll return for a kiss,,
just keep on tossing yet another, and another, penny u"ll see, you will soon dicovered, ur life will never be the same, because someday she'll come back home,and u will never be alone,
oh a penny a day i still tossed into that old wishing well, for my love to come home again.

Part Two – An Unexpected Optimism
Sat by the window as the train leaves Ballymena station and trundles on towards Belfast Central, if a fella's got his eyes proper tuned, he can see a cancerous past spread its legs and give birth to a writhing, squealing infant future. Somewheres along that glorious stretch the water breaks, the belly trembles, the offspring crawls out squinting at the sun and the parent chokes on its own bile.
The boarded-window estates, the flags been hanging for decades, the murals and the scrawling cross the walls, they all get fewer and further between, till next thing a man knows it's the shimmering Royal Mail building to the right, the motorways stacked one on top the other, the high-rises, the reek of commerce.
A cluster-bomb of contrasting emotions. Elation upon entering the City, coupled with intense hatred for the soulless banshee fuckers who let the estates out there end up in such a pitiful condition in the first place. A man gets to thinking bout how he can sympathize with the fellas headed out this way last weekend with nothing more than a sketchy map and a couple pistols.
32 armored-van robberies in Northern Ireland this year already, the radio lass announced a while back, and then it's The Rakes;
"22 grand job… in the city!"
Thank fuck the train service terminates at Great Victoria Street, otherwise a man would be forced for to watch the whole affair reach its ghastly conclusion; that kid who crawled out the guts thirty miles ago, it grows up embittered and spiteful and shitting and puking cross the country till it collapses fourteen miles south a Dublin.
But right here, right in the center of Belfast City, the kid's just reached its teens. It's optimistic, it's got ideals, you can smell it amongst the skaters sat outside City Hall, you can see it reflected in the puddles outside The Kremlin.
Couple miles away Stormont Castle grinds and groans and every now and again a sound-bite slips out the cracks, words like "Decommission" and "Disband" and "Progress", shit dripping out a withered, dying arsehole, and reporters crawling out Strangford Lough on hands and knees fighting for a fistful.
Roomfuls of shuffling hell-spawn renegades arriving by police escort, spending the day babbling irrelevant cock into each other's ears, and The Belfast Telegraph bounding from the newsstands with talk of Adams Says "Perhaps", Falls Down Comatose In Pool Of Noxious Semen.
Who produced this semen? Pray god it wasn't a Unionist!
Sometimes, just for a chuckle, a man might be tempted to let loose a Real Issue amongst those detestable rogues just for to see how the fuckers deal with it all, how the spines twist round as they scramble for a hint of a note worth noting, those beady half-eyes black with ambition.
And the headlines roar "Feuding… Agreement… Peace Talks… Disarm"
And the folks sat outside the City Hall, three hundred kids all listening to different songs on the head-phones, if they could be bothered, what they'd say would be "What?"
They need a hint to remind them why they were supposed to give a fuck, and a man finds it hard to offer any sort of answer.
Who are these politicians, these specters supposed to be offering any sort of service to these youngsters? Who are these dead-eyed hustlers? Hideous toothless crones staggering towards the City Center, barking in delirious tongues, hollering about how they're all set for to think about adopting ideals the folks here adopted years ago, they fall to the pavements and rot, they're swept off fore the night's out.
Two headed monstrosities biting at each other and met with nothing but bemused glances.
Braying insensible creatures too fucked-up to notice everybody's stopped listening, and it'd be a maniac who'd suggest we'd be better off if we lent an ear after all this time.
And yet outside of this tiny area in this fairly small City, still these bastards are all there is.
No wonder a fella's sat on the back doorstep at half four in the morning, flicking cigarette ash to the wind and trying his damndest to recall what got him feeling all optimistic a few days ago. Something to do with Belfast. What the hell was it, now?
Flickering recollections, a man the far side of a week-long gin binge straining for to focus on a half-formed face, a statement just a notch too low to pick up with any degree of confidence, a fist swung in anger, but whose fist?
A kaleidoscopic haze of terrors;
Sin Fein and the DUP grabbing the most votes in the last election; gun-running, dope-peddling, pimping maiming thugs holding working class estates to ransom; hate-crimes increasing, the White Nationalist Party dragging primate knuckles cross any town desperate enough to offer them an ear; backwards, egotistical scum hanging from every headline.
Where the fuck was that light again?
It rose from the tongue of a girl with an accent I can't place. In the back room of a bar on York Street, she's been telling me how anyone who thinks that the Good Friday agreement, that The Assembly, might be some sign of progression, how those folks are beyond her comprehension.
She's talking about how The Assembly needs sectarianism to exist, how it's dependant on there being Republican parties and Loyalist parties, it doesn't acknowledge any political movement outside of those concerned with self-serving barbaric bullshit.
But she smiles, and she takes a drink before leaning over, all conspiratorial. "But the wonderful thing about it all, is that it keeps those cunts preoccupied so as the rest of us can get a message through."
"Look how many folks were here for the anti-war rallies, look how many folks in Belfast are involved in Amnesty International, look how many teenagers are involved in Socialist Youth."
Somewhere around that last sentence, I think I can trace the swelling of that optimism back to somewheres around those syllables.
"Let the loyalists blow each other fuckless, let the IRA squabble amongst themselves. They're half-arsed gangster thugs operating under some ridiculous presumption of nobility. Folks are moving on, and whether they have guns or whether they don't, those fuckers play no part in it."
And a voice says "That's all well and good here in this street in this city, but my God, girl, someone had to vote for those cretins. Yeah, Belfast Center is gleaming at the minute, but let me tell you, it's a hella lot different a few miles down the road."
And it is.
But sometimes a man just has to take a moment for to stand in the rain outside a night-club, two fellas with hands down each other's trousers just across the road, three gloriously debauched youths to the right sniffing glue and singing "They all get them out, for the boys in the band", and maybe if the mood's in order and the chat's in fine nick, maybe he can allow himself a thought along the lines of "It may be well hidden, and maybe the dinosaurs are still making the most noise, but this city has changed, this country is changing, the consciousness is shifting, however slowly, towards something approaching rational, something approaching global."
The fella in the toilets upstairs in The Front Page, he thinks as much. Chewing his lips raw with that bizarre wordless ecstasy mumble you can observe in most pub toilets on a Saturday night, when he can string a sentence together it's something about "Wider perspectives" and "Fair Trade."
Everyone knows the best conversations take place in tavern toilets, everyone knows the really radical fuckers are to be found in there, granted a serene platform from which to debate and explore any and all manner of infamies. Away from the crowds, away from the pounding speakers, folks are more relaxed, they can be heard, no-one's gonna interrupt, on account of they dig the trail you're fronting right now, on account of even if they did disagree, they most likely got their head tween someone's thighs in the next cubicle.
Before he heads off on some spectacular nonsensical rant about how he's gonna hire five gypsies to follow him round Vienna, he manages to say something along the lines of;
"Belfast, to me, see, to me, it's like, Belfast is like someone I used to hate waking up beside, and now it's like, now I get hard just thinkin' bout it."
A girl earlier on told me about how I shouldn't worry, what happens here spreads eventually, like some kind of ideological Broadband. What we've got here, she says, you'll have out there soon enough.
Maybe at home the fellas in the scarves are still wandering door-to-door selling disgusting hateful propaganda at a quid a time to people too scared to say "No, actually I'd rather you went and fucked yourself with a six-inch razor."
Maybe a disconcerting percentage of teenagers are still being coaxed towards the soulless hordes hiding behind some perverted cause.
Maybe racist attacks are increasing, and are publicly condemned by hypocritical bastards who privately curse every immigrant they pass.
Maybe so, but there are more minds starting to question the toxic retort they been fed since as far back as they remember. More and more kids are turning on the ideals they accepted without question, and are angry that such ideals were ever offered in the first place.
More and more, the fella in the bar barking about "What Sinn Fein / IRA don't realize…" or "What the DUP need to accept is…", more and more that fella's starting to look like Dylan's Ramona;
"But it grieves my heart, love,
To see you tryin' to be a part of
A world that just don't exist.
It's all just a dream, babe,
A vacuum, a scheme, babe,
That sucks you into feelin' like this."
Thanks folks

For the stock
1 medium-sized free-range or organic chicken
1-1.5ltrs chicken stock
A handful of tarragon
10 black peppercorns
A handful of parsley stalks
A head of garlic, halved
1 onion, peeled and quartered
1 carrot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 leek, halved lengthways, roughly chopped and washed
1 bulb of fennel
2 bay leaves
To serve
2 heads of fennel, trimmed and cut into 6 or 8 wedges through the root
2 carrots, peeled and sliced on the angle
1 leek, sliced on the angle
4 sticks of celery heart, sliced on the angle
24 Charlotte or waxy new potatoes, peeled
For the sauce
tbsp chopped tarragon
tbsp chopped mint
1tbsp chopped parsley
tbsp Dijon mustard
Olive oil to mix
Put the chicken in a large saucepan with the cold chicken stock and the rest of the ingredients for the stock. Bring to the boil, season and simmer for 20-25 minutes then turn off the heat, cover with a lid; leave to cool.
Once the chicken is cool, remove the skin and remove all the meat from the legs and breasts and cut into good-sized chunks. Skim any fat from the broth and strain into another saucepan.
Simmer the broth until it has reduced and has a good flavour; season again if necessary, then add the second lot of vegetables and potatoes; simmer until tender.
To make the sauce, mix the chopped herbs with the mustard, then stir in enough olive oil to form a thin sauce. Add the chicken to the soup, serve and spoon the sauce on top.Reuse content

The Sims 3: Ambitions
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that The Sims 3: Ambitions is an expansion pack to The Sims 3 (the original game is required to play), and that it contains the same sort of violence, sexuality, and questionable behavior as its forebear. New professions provide fresh opportunities for getting into fights, stealing, and flirting, but the depictions of these activities are no more graphic than they were in the original game. As usual, players have the freedom to mold their Sims however they like, which means they can turn them into good little la- abiding creatures or lead them towards a more devious life of evil or crime.
User reviews

What's it about?
SIMS 3: AMBITIONS, an expansion to the popular life simulation game (the original game is necessary in order to play), focuses on letting players experience more of their Sims' work lives. Rather than having them hop in a car and disappear for hours to earn a living, players can now head out on the job with their avatars to complete work-related tasks. You can save people from blazes as a firefighter, bust some ghosts as a ghost hunter, ruin and enhance your client's appearance as a stylist, and bribe or beat people up for information as a private investigator. Players can explore new hobbies as well, such as sculpting models of other Sims and crafting new inventions. As usual, players can guide their Sims however they like, turning them into model workers or making them duty-shirking sloths. As an expansion, the rest of The Sims 3's features remain available, which means players can dabble in these new tasks as much or as little as they like.
Is it any good?
As Sims expansions go, Ambitions offers a fair bit of content. The ability to fully explore, take part in, and direct your Sims' careers fills a pretty big void in previous games, and the extra hobbies and skills provide interesting new ways to fill our Sims' leisure time.
However, it may not be for people who enjoy working with large households or big families of Sims. The professions we explore are involved enough that it can make trying to effectively and successfully manage multiple Sims difficult. But that's a fairly small tradeoff for the ability to head out into the world and have a more meaningful career. There's no question that Ambitions is one of the better expansions to the world's most popular PC game franchise.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about gender equality in the Sims games. In this expansion, women and men are both capable of entering the same professions and being paid equally. Are there any professions in this game that you think women or men would have a difficult time entering as an equal in the real world?
Families can also discuss our Sims' ability to goof off on the job. Are the penalties in the game realistic? Do you think that real workers could get away with what our Sims can get away with?

The global oil price spiked upwards yesterday as fears grew of a looming conflict between Israel and Iran and constraints on supply started to bite.
Brent crude rose in trading by $2.16 to hit $115 a barrel, the highest since May.
Israeli newspapers reported at the weekend that the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is close to ordering a military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, and on Sunday the country's Deputy Foreign Minister said the diplomatic effort to halt the Tehran regime's enrichment of uranium should now be declared dead. Iran has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz, through which 40 per cent of the world's seaborne oil supplies pass, if it is attacked by Israel.
The supply of oil has also been constrained of late by a slowdown in North Sea production. Output from the 12 North Sea streams is set to fall by 17 per cent next month thanks to maintenance and natural decline.
The Brent oil price fell to $90 in June, but has been rising ever since.
The future path of oil prices is complicated, however, by signs of slowing demand. Last week the International Energy Agency cut its 2013 production forecast by 400,000 barrels per day, citing the global economic slowdown.
That is reinforced today by the Centre for Economics and Business Research, which has slashed its forecast for global growth in 2013 to 2.7 per cent, down from the 3.2 per cent it expected in April.
Some analysts said yesterday that the weakening global growth outlook might prompt the monetary authorities in the US, China and Europe to do more to boost growth, which would prop up global energy prices.
"Hopes of a stimulus are underpinning prices for oil and other commodities markets," said Carsten Fritsch of Commerzbank.
The Bank of England voted to pump a further £50bn into the UK economy in July and the European Central Bank and the People's Bank of China cut interest rates in the same month.
The chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke, has signalled that he is prepared to do more to support the US economy should the outlook weaken.
The think-tank CEBR forecasts the rate of annual growth in China will slow to 7 per cent by 2016, well below the average over the past decade of rapid economic expansion.

Kayden Clarke Protest
Protesters took to the streets of downtown Tucson around 7 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 11 to protest the killing of Kayden Clarke, a transgender man, at the hands of the police in Mesa, Ariz.
After about an hour standing in front of the Ronstadt Transit Center, the demonstrators moved onto the street, walking west on Congress Street to Stone Avenue, heading south to Broadway Boulevard, then back east to Fourth Avenue.
When the group passed under the Fourth Avenue Underpass, the Tucson Police Department declared the protest an unlawful assembly and demanded the crowd disperse.
They continued north to Sixth Street, where they turned west before splitting up and ending the march at the intersection of Sixth Street and Sixth Avenue.

This comes after the Lamborghini police car in Dubai, and, of course the Lamborghini used to ferry organs on the autostrada. Now all they need to do is have it race a jet down the runway. Lamborghini sent the Aventador to the Bologna airport for its 50th anniversary, where it will actually help taxi planes until May 19th. The company also sent test driver Mario Fasanetto to train the workers at the airport, just in case the raging bull got a little out of control. I get this makes up for the Lamborghini Egoista they released last night. Can't get too crazy, right? Then ze german owners vould be very upset. I want a Lambo garbage truck.

Wellbutrin's Potential Side Effects
Potential Side Effects All Crazy Meds Have
No matter which neurological and/or psychiatric drug you take, you'll probably get one or more of these side effects. These will usually be gone, or at least will diminish to the point where you barely notice it most of the time, within a week or two.
- Headache
- Drowsiness / fatigue - even when taking stimulants in some circumstances.
- Insomnia, instead of or alternating with the drowsiness.
- Nausea
- Assorted other minor GI complaints (constipation, diarrhea, etc.)
- Generally feeling spacey / out of it
- Which can all add up to the ever-helpful "flu-like symptoms" listed as an adverse event on the PI sheet of practically every medication on the planet used to treat almost any condition humans and other animals could have.1
- All crazy meds can, and probably will affect your dreams as well. There is no way of telling if that will be good or bad, let alone if this side effect is permanent or temporary.
- Any of the above side effects you see listed again below means they're even more likely to happen and/or stick around longer and/or are worse than most other meds.

Colorectal cancer represents a major public health issue but also provides exceptional opportunities for investigating human tumorigenesis. We have recently developed experimental approaches that allow us to analyze human cancers in unprecedented detail and address questions that were difficult or impossible to answer in the past. We intend to use these approaches to fill gaps in our understanding of the early events in colorectal tumor development.
Aim #1 is directed at identifying the genetic basis of two polyposis syndromes, Serrated Polyposis Syndrome (SPS) and Atypical Adenomatous OligoPolyposis (AAOP). To determine the genetic basis for both these syndromes, we will perform whole genome sequence analysis of normal and tumor tissues from representative patients.
Aim #2 is directed at identifying the clonal relationship and timing of genetic alteratios during colorectal tumorigenesis in the canonical Adenoma-Carcinoma and the Serrated Colorectal Cancer Pathways. We will perform genome-wide analyses of clonal somatic mutations in a unique collection of lesions including hyperplastic polyps, serrated adenomas, sessile serrated adenomas, small adenomatous polyps and, most importantly, invasive and adjacent non-invasive components (adenomatous and hyperplastic) from the same lesions. We will thereby be able to determine the clonal relationships among different components of the same tumor and evaluate the time periods required for tumor progression.
Aim #3 is directed at characterizing non-clonal somatic mutations in normal and neoplastic colorectal tissues. The number and type of non-clonal somatic mutations can provide a window into past endogenous and exogenous mutagen exposures. We have recently developed a technique (SafeSeqS) that can reliably identify non-clonal somatic mutations in clinical samples. SafeSeqS will be used to assess such mutations in benign and malignant tumors as well as in normal colorectal tissues.
Aim #4 is directed at identifying the full compendium of early events in colorectal tumorigenesis. Several lines of evidence support the idea that APC or CTNNB1 mutations are the initiating events in colorectal tumorigenesis. Is tumor development simply gated by inactivation of the APC pathway or are additional early changes required? Using technologies developed during the past funding period, we will pursue an integrated (i.e., genetic, epigenetic and transcriptomic) analysis of multiple synchronous adenomas removed from the same patients to look for recurring genetic and epigenetic changes that may act as early events in tumor development. Relevance:
Our specific aims are directed at identification of the early events in colorectal tumorigenesis. It can be argued that understanding these early changes is essential for the development of more effective strategies for colorectal tumor prevention and treatment.
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States with 141,000 cases and 49,000 deaths expected in 2011. Understanding the earliest changes in colorectal tumorigenesis will be key to developing the most effective preventions and treatments for colorectal cancer. The goals of the studies proposed in this application are to characterize early events in various types of colorectal tumors.

About Coloma
Coloma is the duo of vocalist Rob Taylor and producer Alex Paulick. The Englishmen reside in Germany and signed with Mathias Schaffhäuser's Ware label for their debut album, 2002's Silverware. They returned the following year with the phenomenal Finery, recorded at Conny Plank's studio and also released on Ware. The album was a brilliant headfirst dive into previously unchartered waters, a cross between minimal dance music and sophisti-pop. Two years later, they released the relatively organic Dovetail on Klein, featuring a horn section and several other guest instrumentalists. Outside of the group, Taylor leant his voice to Schaffhäuser's cover of Icehouse's "Hey Little Girl," and Paulick has played bass in Kreidler. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi

We're a project to build a project/event space and café in Wedding dedicated to the idea of bringing people together to engage with each other in meaningful ways. Starting this summer, we will make use of art, technology, design and culture to create an experimental space to shift borders how people use public space to create inclusive community and collaborate to develop locally sustainable solutions. You could say we are developing a sustainable solutions werkstatt made up of freelance talent from various disciplines… Check out our "Meetup" group for people who want to get involved in the Baumhaus project or contact: baumhaus.berlin(at)gmail.com

Scott Bolden's perspective (das Baumhaus co-founder)
Quite some effort went into producing this event, an experience many of us have shared, but from many different perspectives. I am writing this review because I think that gaining an understanding of each other's perspectives regarding a commonly shared experience can be a valuable learning opportunity. What insights can we learn from and how can we continue to collaborate to create the world we want to live in? It is in this spirit that I offer my own perspective as event coordinator and invite you to offer your's so that our next shared experiences can be even better.
Before I get too far, I would first like to sincerely thank the over 600 participants and presenters who showed up to take part in our Emergent Berlin experience at Spreeacker and Kater Holzig. I would especially like to thank the great group of people who put in the hard work and time to help make this event a reality; I have listed my appreciation of specific individuals for their contributions at the end of this review.
Producing this event itself was a great example of emergent behavior in action as I experienced dealing with situation after situation that needed resolution from the planning and set up stages of the event to the evening of the event and cleaning up on the following days. I definitely felt like I fully lived the concept of emergence throughout this process, which is quite satisfying considering that I aim to "live" my ideas and not just "talk" about them.
Planning for this event started way back in Feb when the people over at Rally.org invited us to create a crowd funding project on their web platform and use their space for a supporting event. By mid March the Emergent Berlin concept was developed, we confirmed participation of several sustainable initiatives with whom we already had collaborative relationships and a facebook event was created. By early April we sent out a call for participation far and wide… and then Rally.org told us that they double booked the space! So there we were, we had a full program planned for an event with 20 or so confirmed collaborators and no place to host it!
This was a real drag because now we had a full event to try to find a space suitable to host hundreds of people plus we lost any appetite to run a crowd-funding campaign with Rally. At this point, I really was considering canceling the event to avoid the risk of losing money and time on an event especially since our goal was to raise €10k for our security deposit on the Baumhaus space (which we still need to raise). Ultimately, I decided to move ahead with the event planning mostly because I felt a sense of personal responsibility to follow through on a commitment to all the people who had agreed to participate.
At the time, everyone on our core team of planners had pledged to press on and help find a new location but by the time May rolled around and we still had no new event space, most of the original event planning team went on to focus on other projects. Then it happened, I found the Spreeacker! Michael La Fond from id22/Spreeacker agreed to let us use their space! A few days later Neils Peter Flint's introduction to the Kater Holzig community paid off because they agreed to let us use their place in case of rain.
Up to this point in the story I would like to state a few reflections…
0) The power of shared ideas – Above all else, this event came to being because there is a strongly shared sense and will in our local communities to develop sustainable solutions that can help make our Berlin and beyond great places to be and live in. It was this very strong sense from many of you that inspired and drove me to make sure that this event would happen.
1) Avoiding Selfish Opportunism – Throughout the course of planning there were several occasions where people made promises and confirmed situations and then changed their minds at the last minute. I think we all really need to be more conscious of following through on our commitments and promises to each other. There are enough challenges in the world to deal with without having to worry about us creating more stress for each other.
2) Staying Cool Through The Pressure – I think there were about 10 times when I probably could have outwardly expressed my outrage at certain situations but did not do so. I'm glad I saved myself and others any stress by taking the time to digest situations before immediately reacting. I also acknowledge the patience of many others throughout this process.
Moving along…. So, with less than 3 weeks until the event all the final details and scheduling had to be worked out. The event was originally planned for a space with full infrastructure and equipment but now everything had to be coordinated from scratch. What worked out pretty well was posting a simple google spreadsheet doc online that allowed presenters to schedule their presentations and workshops on their own and also sign up for shifts to help run the bar, make photos, sit at the door, moderate the presentations, set up and clean up. In the end, we had just enough people showing up at the right time to make things run smoothly. However, it would have been nice if we had just 10 more people contributing 1 hour of help each. This would have made the event less stressful for those who were helping out already.
The actual event ::
I was pretty busy during the event dealing with set up issues and unforeseen problems but I was there for about half of the 20 presentations as acting moderator and technical coordinator. I felt pretty good giving my presentation at the end of the session but it would be good to hear some other feedback besides the one critical response posted in the comment section of our home page.
In general, I thought the presentations I saw were pretty solid, entertaining enough and informative but it was a drag that mic did not function until the end of the program. I was really impressed that the presenters were able to do presentations for over 100 people at a time without a mic, bravo! The presenters also did a good job of reorganizing themselves and the available resources to keep the program flowing; 20 consecutive presentations actually finished on time… Now that was some emergent behavior in action!
Just 1 day before the event, we made the decision to go with our bad weather 'Plan B' to keep all the programming indoors between the Spreeacker and the Kater Holzig. Thanks go out to Sven and Bruno over at the Kater Holzig for letting us use the space and helping to set it up so nice!
Anyway, this meant that we had to do the film screening, workshops and presentations all at the same time and be done at the Kater Holzig by 21.30h. Although the rooms were quite nice, we hoped to be able to spread out the program a bit more over the entire night. Big thanks to Lela Ahmadzai form 2470 media for managing the scene over at Kater Holzig! I did not get a chance to participate in any of the workshops but I heard some good feedback regarding content however, I also heard that there was a bit of noise interference between various activities.
By the time all the presentations were over at 22.30h back at the Spreeacker boat house, the party was in already getting going. The Beatkollektiv Djs went on grooving out until the break of dawn and much fun was had by all with a good vibe throughout the night.
The important thing is that we created an interactive experience and the conditions for meaningful engagement with a conscious focus on how we can make Berlin and the world a more sustainable and great place to live. Personally, I had a good time and never got too stressed dealing with issues but it really would have been great with a few more people helping out. However, mine is just one very limited perspective so I invite others to chime in and post either the comment section here, on facebook or even via email, baumhaus.berlin(at)gmail.com. All responses will be considered as we prepare for our next event in September; a call for participation will come soon.
I would like to give special thanks to Lela Ahmadzai for arranging and managing the Grimme Award winning berlinfolgen screening and workshops, helping during set up and clean up and the 100 other things she did before, during and after the event. I would like to thank Joanna Anastassiou for organizing, setting up and tending the bar as well as cleaning cleaning up. Thanks to Stef Lenk for helping out at the bar. Thanks to Roland over at Lichtpark who helped us stock the Bar. Thanks to Karen Wohlert for helping with set up, clean up, moderation and managing our great crew of helpers. Thanks to Andrew James for his documentation of the event and help setting up. Thanks to Ciska Jansen of Enak-Enak and her assistant for cooking such great food and raising money for a good cause. Thanks to Ben Kaubisch for set up and moving help as well as helping out at the door. Thanks to Alex Namir and Katie for helping at the bar. Thanks to Robert Powierski for helping during set up. Thanks to Sebastian Nowakowski (kimidori) and Katja von Helldorff (material mafia) and Prinzessinnengarten for lending us and helping move their sustainable furniture. Thanks to Peter Mädel who loaned us his party light and torches for the beach plus he ran the bar with Peter Hartfiel for the last half of the Party! Thanks to Gabriela Dorniak for helping out at the door and Richard Schut for helping to moderate (and for being the first one to come up with a new collaborative project inspired at Emergent Berlin!) Thanks to Steve, Stephen, Klass, Iris, Jon and Michael form Spreeacker for helping to facilitate the whole process. Please let me know if I have forgotten to mention anybody and I will correct the situation.

Nook v1.4 firmware hacked
The good folks at Nookdevs have hacked the latest Nook firmware. (I'm beginning to think B&N doesn't care.) The Nookdev v1.4 firmware comes with quite a few apps preinstalled:
- softRoot
- nookLauncher
- nookLibrary
- nookWifiLocker
- Trook
- busybox
You can find out more here. The usual warnings and cautions apply.
But I'm not so sure that you should get this firmware. I've seen a couple reports at MobileRead Forums about v1.4. Both users have encountered bugs. You might want to wait and see if more complaints are reported.

There's a simple answer: people.
For all of Google's reputation as a data-data-data company, the company's famed mapping product, which arrived on iOS early this morning, is good for a different reason: people. In reporting earlier this year about how Google builds its maps, I stumbled upon a massive operation requiring vast amounts of human labor. Basically, the company can acquire all kinds of data — from governments, cars driving the streets, satellite imagery, private data stores — but humans must compile all these things. We are the ones who understand the logic of the streets and can embed it into the locations on the map.

For an idea of what the finished pictures should look like, please see [url removed, login to view] This will give you an idea of the colours, and more importantly, how big the jewellery should be in the frame. I will give detailed specifications when the job begins.
All photos will be sent to you in RAW format. These are approximately 20mb per photo, so it is required that you have a good download speed.
I have uploaded 3 sample photos so you can show me your skills. You can find the files here: [url removed, login to view]
I uploaded 2 of the most complicated pieces, and 1 of the easier ones. In the final batch there are
8 full necklaces (similar to KPNC1082)
15 large bangles (similar to HTB706 S B12)
76 rings/pendants/etc (similar to KPN2790)
If you make a bid, you HAVE to include the 3 sample photos edited. This is so I can assess the quality of your work. Any bid without these samples will be ignored. Please upload the samples in jpeg format, with dimensions 1000x1000 pixels.
Within the next 2-3 weeks there will be another 50 pieces, and then in 2 months time an extra 100. If you do this job to the right standards, those future jobs will also be given to you. For now though please make your bid according to the 99 pictures in this batch.
