Judge's ruling links Salvadoran military chief to atrocities in 1980s
Catholic News Service
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Documents detailing a 2014 court decision ordering deportation of a now-80-year-old former defense minister from El Salvador directly connect his leadership to human rights abuses and a reign of terror against the country's civilians including a Salvadoran archbishop and women religious during the 1980s.
Living in South Florida as a retiree since 1989, the former defense minister, Gen. Jose Guillermo Garcia, and one other former Salvadoran had previously been sued unsuccessfully -- under the 1992 U.S. Torture Victim Protection Act -- in the murder of four Catholic missionaries in 1980.
Garcia was again later sued by four survivors of the Salvadoran civil war in the 1980s, but Garcia has remained in Florida.
But in late February of this year, the Justice Department concluded "removal proceedings," ordering Garcia's deportation. The details of the ruling were only made public in early April as a result of a Freedom of Information Act request by The New York Times.
In what is being considered an expansive and highly detailed 66-page decision, Judge Michael C. Horn of Immigration Court in Miami states that the minister of defense in El Salvador was essentially the most powerful position in El Salvador at that time, and that Garcia "assisted or otherwise participated" in numerous atrocities during the war including:
-- The March 24, 1980, murder of Archbishop Oscar Romero, considered a key figure for peace at the time, as he celebrated Mass in San Salvador. Archbishop Romero was an ardent voice against violence and publicly denounced the circumstances that led to unfair economic conditions for the poor of El Salvador.
-- Numerous massacres, disappearances and death squad operations against unarmed civilians by Salvadoran armed forces especially between 1980 and 1983. The ruling notes that the U.N. Truth Commission for El Salvador found that civilian and military groups "engaged in a systematic murder campaign with total impunity, while State institutions turned a blind eye."
-- The 1980 assassination of four American missionaries -- Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke, Ursuline Sister Dorothy Kazel and lay missionary Jean Donovan -- as they left the airport outside of San Salvador. The women were kidnapped, raped and killed on a rural road before being buried in a shallow grave. In 1984, five national guardsmen were convicted of the killings and served long jail sentences.
-- The 1981 El Mozote massacre in which some 1,000 individuals in the village of El Mozote were systematically executed, including men, women and children in what has been called the worst massacre of civilians in contemporary Latin American history. In 2012 the Salvadoran government official accepted responsibility for the massacre, admitting that the state "engaged in a conscious and systematic process of denial over the last 27 years."
The new ruling means that Garcia joins another retired Salvadoran in Florida, Gen. Carlos Eugenio Vides Casanova, a former director of the Salvadoran national guard, who was accused of similar human rights abuses and also has been cleared this year for deportation. In 2002, both men were found guilty in a civil trial for the torture of three Salvadorans, and ordered to pay $54.6 million to the victims.
The conflict in El Salvador lasted from roughly 1979 to 1992 and more than 75,000 Salvadorans were killed, according to the United Nations. Many civilians left the tiny Central American country and fled for protection to the United States, Europe and Australia, among other places. Others were "disappeared" and have never been found.
Horn's ruling states: "The court finds that members of the Salvadoran Armed Forces carried out hundreds, if not thousands, of additional killings of noncombatant men, women and children between 1980 and 1983.
"Priests, nuns, doctors, teachers, academics, judges, lawyers, journalists, displaced persons and farmers were among those executed by members of the armed forces."
The ruling concludes that the Salvadoran armed forces were under Garcia's control both as a matter of law and a matter of fact, and that instead of championing reform and higher standards of conduct once assuming responsibility for the armed forces, Garcia fostered, and allowed to thrive, an institutional atmosphere in which the Salvadoran armed forces preyed upon defenseless civilians under the guise of fighting a war against communist subversives.
"Instead of instituting changes that would decrease the incidents of killings and torture by the military, (Garcia) failed to stamp out death squads within the security forces," the ruling notes. "Likewise, despite contemporaneous evidence that members of the military had been involved in the assassination of Archbishop Oscar Romero, a man who could have been an ally in bringing about change and peace in El Salvador, (Garcia) failed to adequately investigate."
The court said Garcia's personal conduct relative to the Salvadoran human rights abuses at that time was not merely indirect but rather "active, direct and integral to the commission of extrajudicial killing and torture."
The San Francisco-based Center for Justice and Accountability, established by Amnesty International to ensure the U.S. doesn't serve as a safe haven for alleged human rights violators, issued a response to the Horn's ruling, noting his judgment on the El Mozote massacre is particularly important in light of the recent reopening of an investigation in El Salvador of the massacre.
"Judge Horn found that Garcia's conduct in failing to investigate or punish other extrajudicial killings enabled the El Mozote massacre to take place," the statement reads. "Judge Horn ruled, in concurrence with (former U.S.) Ambassador (Robert) White's testimony, that Garcia failed in his responsibility to protect Salvadoran citizens and, in contrast, established policies that would create victims."
The center noted that Garcia can request relief from removal and to appeal the ruling.

Project Description
A logo for a performance cafe that holds shows at anime and comic conventions. The name is derived from tsuki (月) (moon) and mochi (a soft Japanese rice cake with filling).
I envision a simple rice cake (maybe with a # texture - stylized to identify it as mochi, which is often coated in rice flour) with a bite taken out of it so that it looks like a crescent moon. You might also add some crumbs as long as they fit the style and look intentional.
A wordmark should also appear... either sandwiching the icon described above or beneath it. The logo will be used as an representation of the cafe in places where the full banner (attached) is too large to display.

This valve for gases, liquids, or powdery materials has an extremely simple and low-cost structure. Opening and closing functions are generated by using shape-memory wires, which move a diaphragm shutter element. The shape memory can reshape the diaphragm to lift away from the closed position. Then, with the change of temperature or current, it can return back to the closed position. This open/shut movement can be simple for on/off fluid requirements. It can also be rapid to effect displacement of a fluid. Particular positioning of shape-memory elements guarantees deicing functionality as resistance along the alloy can generate heat to prevent freezing.

Competitiveness and convergence in Portugal
The complementary package of macroeconomic and structural policies associated with Portugal joining the European Monetary System in 1992 failed because budgetary control was inconsistent with the new currency regime. In its three sections, this paper focuses on the consequences for growth of this enduring policy failure. Its two main reasons were excessive primary expenditure and state-led wage inflation. Reform procrastination and the reversion of a purely demand-led boom is the main lesson from Portugal on what can be called competitiveness for convergence. Reforms are more likely to fall prey to the second-best argument under ready-made policy packages with scant knowledge about local conditions. A more systemic approach to national economies will include the concept of complementarity as an input into economic advice, as shown in connection with transition by Macedo and Martins (forthcoming).

2014 GC Catch Can
Has anyone installed an oil catch can for the 2014 GC Pentastar V6? If so, how and where did you mount it?
Re: 2014 GC Catch Can
Haven't seen anyone with a V6 having or needing one. They are common on the Hemis. Do the Chargers/Challenger crowd run them? Maybe check there? I have a BT can on my Ram. It's doing its' job.
Re: 2014 GC Catch Can
I'm new to the Jeep family and came across these the other day. Wasn't sure exactly the purpose or if the newer ones still needed it. Interested to hear more on this. I also have the V6 3.6L
Re: 2014 GC Catch Can
I have a 2013 V6 and mine fills up with a few inches of oil between oil changes. So yes it does work!

Time to move on in our preseason countdown of the top 25 players in the Big East.
If you need a quick refresher, I am projecting the best of the best in the league for this upcoming season, and I am including freshmen and transfers as well.
No. 19 Scott Vallone, NT, Rutgers
Twitter handle: @SVallone94
Making the case: There is somebody on the Rutgers defense who no fan should take for granted. And that is tackle Scott Vallone, who has started every game of his career -- 38 to lead all returning players in the Big East. He may not get the headlines, but Vallone does a lot of the dirty work in the trenches, all while playing at a slightly undersized 275 pounds.
Last year was his best yet, as he made a career-high 58 tackles -- including six for a loss. His ability to help push the pocket really helped the Rutgers defensive line make major improvements last year. Was the group shaky against the run? Yes. But this unit also put relenting pressure on the quarterback and helped force a large number of turnovers. This year, Vallone is expected to be used in a more versatile way up front as the most experienced player coming back.
Anybody who has watched Vallone play knows he can handle whatever the coaches ask.
The countdown
No. 20 Ryan Griffin, TE, UConn
No. 21 Adrian Bushell, CB, Louisville
No. 22 Alec Lemon, WR, Syracuse
No. 23 Steve Beauharnais, LB, Rutgers
No. 24 Blidi Wreh-Wilson, CB, UConn
No. 25 Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse

Heidegger's Later Philosophy by Julian Young
Book DescriptionHeidegger's later philosophy has often been regarded as a lapse into unintelligible mysticism. While not ignoring its deep and difficult complexities, Julian Young's book explains in simple and straightforward language just what it is all about. It examines Heidegger's identification of loss of 'the gods', the violence of technology, and humanity's 'homelessness' as symptoms of the destitution of modernity, and his notion that overcoming 'oblivion of Being' is the essence of a turning to a post-destitute, genuinely post-modern existence. Young argues that Heidegger's conception of such an overcoming is profoundly fruitful with respect to the ancient quest to discover the nature of the good life. His book will be an invaluable resource for both students and scholars of Heidegger's works.

Ireland appears on course to legalise abortion in extremely restricted circumstances after lawmakers voted tonight to support a bill that would permit pregnancies to be terminated when deemed necessary to save the mother's life.
Catholic leaders warned that the proposed law, which faces a final vote next week, would become a "Trojan horse" leading eventually to widespread abortion access in Ireland. But Prime Minister Enda Kenny insisted Ireland's constitutional ban on abortion would remain unaffected, and his government's Protection of Life During Pregnancy Bill won overwhelming backing in a 138-24 vote.
Ireland's 1986 constitutional ban on abortion commits the government to defend the life of the unborn and the mother equally. Ireland's abortion law has been muddled since 1992, when the Supreme Court ruled that this "ban" actually meant that terminations should be legal if doctors deem one essential to safeguard the life of the woman - including, most controversially, from her own suicide threats.

Well, I tried to read through all the comments, but it's overwhelming. To StormFanatic, Boynton Beach is about 35-40 miles north of Ft Lauderdale. The trouble with waiting to evacuate is that there will be a lot of people trying to get off a peninsula. Remember the traffic jams with Katrina? I do.
If it misses us, fine, but I want to be safe. I can't wait for them tyo change the track forty seven times. As for hiding from wind, where do I hide a mobile home? We each have to decide what's best for us, and after going through two hurricanes last year and losing my mother in between Frances and Jeanne from the stress, I am not staying.

An Analysis of the 'Stability Pact'
We analyse the proposed 'stability pact' for countries joining a European Monetary Union (EMU). Within EMU shortsighted governments fail to fully internalize the inflationary consequences of their debt policies, which results in excessive debt accumulation. Hence, although in the absence of EMU governments have no incentive to sign a stability pact, within EMU they prefer a stability pact which punishes excessive debt accumulation. With idiosyncratic shocks to governments' budgets, EMU combined with an appropriately designed stability pact will be strictly preferred to autonomy. While the stability pact corrects the average debt bias, inflation, which is attuned to the Union-average debt level, is more stable.

It calls SetLength without the fallible_t argument, which means it'll crash if the malloc fails. We should probably replace the 20-something users with SetLength with or without the fallible_t argument, as is appropriate for the call site.
We call EnsureStringLength in the following places:
In all these cases, we currently have:
if (!EnsureStringLength(string, length)) {
// ...
and we should replace those by:
if (!string.SetLength(length, fallible_t())) {
(or mozilla::fallible_t(), if required).
I don't mind taking a stab at this if that is okay.
Hi. I am an undergraduate college student and am new here. I would like to work on this and hopefully someone could guide me with it.
Is anything in comment 1 unclear?
Just one small doubt, how do i check for namespace collisions. I mean how to check when mozilla::fallible_t() is required?
In general, .cpp files should have a "using namespace mozilla;" at the top, if they aren't wrapped in "namespace mozilla { ... }"; in either case, you don't need the "mozilla::". For headers... Well, actually, this function isn't called in headers, so you should never need the "mozilla::". If the "using" statement is missing, just add it.

This is a competitive renewal application of the Wayne State Principal Investigator's (Rosenberg) grant award, R01MH59299. Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a severe, prevalent, and chronically disabling disorder that emerges during childhood in as many as 50% of all cases. The overall goal of this project, which combines the unique clinical assessment, magnetic resonance imaging, and genetics expertise of three performance sites - Wayne State (neuroimaging of pediatric OCD), University of Michigan (family and molecular genetic studies of early-onset OCD) and University of Toronto (extensive genetic studies of glutamate receptor and transporter genes in OCD) - is to exploit the emerging field of imaging genetics in a critical test of the glutamate hypothesis of OCD. Preliminary studies from Rosenberg's group (R01MH59299, K24MH02037) suggest that a glutamatergically-mediated thalamocortical-striatal dysfunction may serve as a pathophysiological marker in pediatric OCD. Independent findings by the Hanna (R01MH53876, K20MH01065) and the Arnold and Kennedy groups demonstrate a significant association of the glutamate transporter gene, SLC1A1, and glutamate receptor gene, GRIN2B, with early-onset OCD. Building on long-standing existing collaborations among the three sites, exciting new pilot data in pediatric OCD patients demonstrates a significant association between regional brain glutamatergic concentrations, particularly in the anterior cingulate and the GRIN2B-rs1019385 polymorphism. Significant associations between increased left, but not right orbital frontal and increased anterior cingulate volume (R>L) with the rs1805476 variant of GRIN2B were identified in OCD patients. The GRIN2B-rs1019385 variant exhibited a non-significant trend towards association with decreased left but not right caudate volume. The SLC1A1 rs3056-AA genotype was significantly associated with increased right and left thalamic volume. Thus, GRIN2B and SLC1A1 sequence variations may be associated with differences in volume and glutamatergic concentrations within brain regions implicated in the pathogenesis of OCD. High field (3 Tesla) proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) can uniquely distinguish the subcomponents of the glutamatergic resonance (glutamate and glutamine), as well as measure other compounds including the putative neuronal marker, N-acetyl-aspartate, choline compounds and creatine. Targeted 1H MRS and volumetric imaging at 3T at the Children's Hospital of Michigan at Wayne State will be combined with genotyping of 37 polymorphisms in the genes encoding GRIN2B and SLC1A1 (University of Toronto) to examine the effects of these variants on thalamocortical-striatal circuitry in 200 pediatric OCD patients, 7-19 years, and 200 age and sex-matched healthy controls. The combined study of biological, genetic and behavioral/symptom variables enacts the call for translational approaches to mental illness outlined in PA-07- 092, Collaborative R01s for Clinical and Services Studies of Mental Disorders, which may lead to a better understanding of pediatric OCD and, in turn, to new diagnostic and treatment approaches.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a chronic and disabling disorder that costs the economy over $2 billion annually and affects approximately one million children and adolescents in the United States, making it a significant public health problem. There is a pressing need for studies that shed light on the biology of the disorder in order to improve our ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent the disorder. By combining brain imaging and genetics, as we do in this proposal, we can better understand the biology of pediatric OCD and, in turn, develop more effective treatments for this severe form of childhood psychopathology.

Slightly edited shot of a girl in Amsterdam. Taken with my Sony HX1.
Sometimes when I try to secretly shoot somebody, they notice me waving my camera in their general direction and they might panic (hey, having a wicked Reflectah pointing his cam at you can be a somewhat disturbing experience!), and some even go as far as calling the cops, like the lady in these pictures. Once she realized that she might end up in a puddle, being wickedly reflected on, she grabbed her mobile and started dialing
911 112, hysterically screaming at the emergency services people to come and rescue her, crying, sobbing and ululating all over the place. Of course by the time her fingers hit the '1' on the dialpad the first time, I had already hopped on my trusty bicycle and was rapidly riding into the sunset, only to search for less attentive victims, or at least a fool without a mobile phone, lol :D

text: Which NFL Rushing Attacks Do The Most With The Least?Ross Benes8/07/14 1:11pmFiled to: nfleddie lacypackersseahawksrunning backsnfl rushinggiantsRegressing151EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Two years ago, sixth-rounder Alfred Morris held onto his roster spot with a strong preseason and went on to break the Redskins single-season rushing yards record. While steals like Morris are rare, they're also instructive. Some teams invest far fewer resources in their rushing attacks without losing much, if any, productivity. So which teams had the most and least cost-effective ground games last season? Advertisement Over this offseason, numberFire examined the NFL's most and least cost-effective rushing attacks. They paired Adjusted Rushing Net Expected Points Per Play (the number of expected points that's gained or lost per rushing attempt compared to league average) with the total amount teams spent on linemen and running backs. The most cost-effective rushing teams had more success on average winning 49.4 percent of their games (they went 39-40) while the least cost-effective rushing teams only won 41.3 percent of their games (they went 33-47). But this doesn't tell the whole story. See, the metric here is telling you the expected points per play, not the importance of those points. As we know, teams run when they winning, they don't win when they run well. So there's a very good chance that these are merely artifacts of a strong passing game or a very good defense. That said, it's still interesting, because it will tell you something about how well teams are skimping on the running game while remaining successful. Advertisement Below are the most cost-effective NFL rushing attacks.TeamAdjusted Rushing NEP Per PlayTotal SpentGreen Bay0.04$22,514,144Chicago0.03$22,075,968Dallas0.02$21,858,309Atlanta0.01$23,187,746Indianapolis0.07$25,838,828The Packers had the most cost-effective rushing attack, in large part due to Eddie Lacy putting up good numbers despite only costing $616,802 against the cap. Having cheap but productive backs isn't the only way to have a cost-effective ground game, as the Bears show. Rather than relying on a bargain back, Chicago's cost-effective ground game was bolstered by an offensive line that only cost $10 million. (Which can be seen in the clickable and sortable table at the bottom of this post.) Below are the least cost-effective rushing attacks. The Giants had the least cost-effective running game. Despite spending the seventh-most money for running backs and offensive line, the Giants had one of the worst ground games in the NFL.TeamAdjusted Rushing NEP per PlayTotal SpentNY Giants-0.14$29,796,316Tampa Bay-0.04$30,950,426Seattle0.01$38,260,702Houston-0.04$29,600,713Tennessee0.04$42,653,082Although they ran the ball fairly well, the Titans and Seahawks had some of the NFL's least cost-effective ground games. But that's because Tennessee spent the most on running backs and lineman in the NFL and the Seahawks spent the third most. While their ground games did OK, they were not as dominant as one might expect given the resources each team put into running backs and linemen.

Broadcast 6.30pm on 11/10/2004
Percy Cerutty is best known as the eccentric coach who helped take Herb Elliott to victory in the 1500m at the 1960 Rome Olympics. Postal worker turned athletics guru, Cerutty revolutionised running training in Australia - most famously by making his athletes run up and down sand dunes. Herb Elliott is just one of many athletes who credit Percy and his unorthodox training methods with helping them reach their full potential.
GEORGE NEGUS: G'day, and welcome to another Monday night GNT, and another fascinating dollop of our history. Tonight, three individuals who've definitely pushed themselves to the limit, and a fourth, you could say, pushes other people to the limit - the consciously outrageous John Safran. First up, though, athletics coaching legend Percy Cerutty. Early on in his coaching days, Percy was pretty much dismissed as a full-moon-howling crank, but it was his admittedly eccentric talents that helped lift miracle miler Herb Elliott onto the Olympic victory dais. PERCY CERUTTY, ATHLETICS COACH, IN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE: Civilisation has ruined youth of the activities that his fathers and forefathers had that kept the upper body strong. No longer do they chop wood, have to do manual labour. HERB ELLIOTT, FORMER WORLD CHAMPION RUNNER: When you took the combination of leading-edge things that he did, there was probably no other coach in the world that was espousing all of those things at the one time. He was a benchmark-setter. BEN MACKIE, FORMER PUPIL OF PERCY CERUTTY: You came here with the object of running more quickly, and achieving the running, but really it was a education in life. BILL STACEY, FORMER PUPIL OF PERCY CERUTTY: You got a whole philosophy of life and attitudes, you see? Where do you get it these days? You have to go and do a course. NEWSREEL JOURNALIST IN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE: Why do you think your ideas and theories have met with so much opposition in Australia? PERCY CERUTTY IN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE: If you would recollect, Galileo was cast into jail because he made certain statements contrary to orthodox belief. HERB ELLIOTT: Percy grew to be, in my view, the greatest middle distance coach in the world through his own hardships in his life. GRAEM SIMS, PERCY'S BIOGRAPHER: The turning point was his breakdown in 1938, when he was aged 43. He suffered terribly from migraines, combined with his smoking habit - three to four packets of cigarettes a day. This, combined with his obsessive-compulsive nature, all led to, in that year, his having a complete mental, physical and emotional breakdown. He was consigned to bed, visited by doctors of the day, who gave him virtually six months to live. HERB ELLIOTT: He just wouldn't accept that, so he started to read about diet. He started to study the great people of history and the challenges that they had. He started to read philosophy. He became incredibly well self-educated, and it was out of that that he grew into the person that he was. GRAEM SIMS: Percy became a vegetarian. This gave him a tremendous surge of energy. For the first time in his life, he felt alive. HERB ELLIOTT: So he was not speaking theory. This guy based what he had to say to you in the practice of his own life. He knew that it worked. GRAEM SIMS: Percy experimented with every type of human movement, and through these own investigations he was able to develop a theory that he thought was the most economical and productive way for a man to move over the earth at great speed. Portsea became his spiritual home, if you like. Here, Percy felt he could really connect with nature and find peace within himself. NANCY CARNEY, PERCY'S WIDOW: We always had a lot of boys here. That went on for 20-odd years. There was always someone here. I never had an empty house. BILL STACEY: I hitchhiked down here, one Saturday afternoon, August 1959. Tapped on the door. "Come in. Yeah, what do you want?" "Oh, I want to learn how to do some running." "Who are ya?" "So and so." "Never heard of ya! Nancy?! Another mouth to feed." BEN MACKIE: There was only one shower. NANCY CARNEY: Yes, one shower for all of us. BEN MACKIE: And if Percy got unhappy with the guys that were down here, they hadn't worked hard enough, run hard enough, he'd turn the hot water off in the middle of winter. BILL STACEY: That was all part of the toughening-up process, you see? (ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE OF BOYS LIFTING WEIGHTS WHILE PERCY WATCHES) PERCY CERUTTY IN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE: So you have the power. All you want to do is transfer it to the running track, now. GRAEM SIMS: The crowning glory of Percy's career was obviously Elliott's moment of glory in Rome, at the 1960 Olympics. (ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE OF HERB ELLIOTT RUNNING AT THE ROME 1960 OLYMPICS) OLYMPIC COMMENTATOR: And here's the man who's never been beaten in a mile, just stretching out in the back straight. HERB ELLIOTT: Percy said, "I'll be sitting up here in the stand, and I'll have this yellow Australian towel, and if I wave it, it means either that you're about to break the world record or you've got somebody right on your hammer, and, man, you are really going to have to lift it." We get to the last lap, then I see Percy waving this towel and I thought, "What was that supposed to mean? I've forgotten." And I remember that the summing up of both of those possibilities was that I had to run faster. OLYMPIC COMMENTATOR: Elliott to a magnificent victory, and he's going to be well inside the previous world record. Herb Elliott - the greatest miler the world has ever seen. HERB ELLIOTT: The extraordinary thing was that Percy was actually standing on the side of the track. He'd avoided all the police, he'd jumped a moat, that...I don't know how he got over it, because it was spiked and it was dangerous, and he was on the side of the track. And shortly after I ran past, the police got him and dragged him off the track. Great character. (ARCHIVAL NEWSREEL FOOTAGE OF PERCY BEING INTERVIEWED) NEWSREEL REPORTER: Well, Percy - you're back from the Rome Olympiads. What are your plans for the future? PERCY CERUTTY: Get down to Portsea as quickly as I can and have a rest. BEN MACKIE: He certainly imparted a philosophy of life. I took it into my business life, as well as my running. Yeah, he was certainly unique. PERCY CERUTTY IN ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE: It is a truism - I feel it is - that if only one person really believes in you, you must succeed. HERB ELLIOTT: People say, you know, "You were naturally gifted and so you would have been just as good without Percy." And they can say that if they wish - I know that I wouldn't have been as good without Percy. GEORGE NEGUS: We always associate Percy with those sand dunes, don't we? Cutting-edge stuff - weight training and eating heaps of fresh vegies. Might've been radical back then, but not now.

The long-term goal of this project is to elucidate the interrelationships between the structure and conformational dynamics of cytochrome P450 enzymes, their catalytic mechanisms, and the consequences of these interactions in terms of catalytic outcome and substrate specificity. The phase of the work proposed here has three major goals: (a) To utilize NMR and fluorescent probes to elucidate the conformational range of bacterial P450 enzymes and the nature of the environment in the vicinity of the thiolate-iron ligand;(b) to investigate the mechanisms by which mutations distant from the active site alter the catalytic process, focusing on the possible role of coupled protein motions and conformational links;(c) to further stabilize the monomeric state of solubilized human P450 enzymes and to extend the NMR and fluorescent conformational probe studies to these proteins;and (d) to apply cutting edge computational docking techniques to the conformational ensembles emerging from the combined use of molecular dynamics and NMR to construct refined protocols for the prediction and rationalization of cytochrome P450 substrate and inhibitor specificity, focusing initially on CYP2C9 The work proposed in this application rests on a number of technical advances. First, efforts to determine the structures of membrane-bound human P450 enzymes have succeeded in the past decade and more than a dozen P450 enzyme structures in various ligation states are now available. Second, the rapid progress in NMR techniques has allowed us to demonstrate the utility of site-specific NMR probes in conformational analysis of proteins as large as the P450 enzymes. Third, methods for the site-specific incorporation of unnatural and labeled amino acids now make it possible to tag individual positions in a protein with NMR or fluorescent probes. Fourth, advances in computational algorithms and the increase in computer speed now allow long-term molecular dynamics studies and computational docking of flexible ligands in flexible active sites. This is a broad study of the interplay of conformational dynamics and its role in modulating catalysis and determining substrate specificity in a set of enzymes that are notoriously malleable and challenging. The results should have a major impact in the pharmaceutical industry, for which the P450 specificity for a given drug candidate can determine whether it progresses or is discarded. They will also impact the design of inhibitors for P450 enzyme targeted in cancer and other diseases, and the design of P450 catalysts for biotechnological applications. Beyond P450, the conformational issues dealt with in this project and the techniques being explored have broader applicability and will have an impact in completely different areas of biochemistry and biology.
Cytochrome P450 enzymes fulfill critical roles in the metabolism of drugs and environmental chemicals, the biosynthesis of endogenous factors such as the sterol hormones, and the termination of the action of endogenous factors such as retinoic acid. They are of major practical interest because: (a) they are important targets for clinically used antifungal, antiparasitic, and anticancer drugs, (b) they are major determinants of drug pharmacokinetics and drug action, (c) they are responsible for a broad range of metabolism-dependent drug toxicities, and (d) they have high potential as biotechnological catalysts. The ability to predict P450 substrate and inhibitor specificity, and the effect of mutations on catalytic function, is central to all of these areas.

Many of those with share payouts have been saving modest amounts. Penny Llewellyn, 44, is a personnel clerk at Asda's Killingbeck store in Leeds. She put pounds 20 a month into the scheme for five years and now has almost 3,000 shares, worth about pounds 5,500. "A lot of people have benefited this time - there are a lot of us rubbing our hands together," she says. She plans to save some of the shares in an individual savings account (ISA) and sell the rest to pay for a cruise to celebrate her silver wedding this summer.
With the stock market booming, staff at many other public companies are enjoying similar returns. The schemes ask you to save between pounds 5 and pounds 250 a month over three, five or seven years in a tax-free building or bank society account.
Joining up gives you the right to buy shares several years down the line at a price fixed in advance. The Asda scheme granted share options in 1994 at 47p. (The price you are quoted as a scheme member is generally 20 per cent below the share price at the start of the scheme.) Assuming the company does well in the long term, you cannot lose. Asda's trading price last week was 188p, a 300 per cent increase.
To get a payout you have to save for the full term of the contract and be an employee of the company at the end of the savings period. You don't have to use the money to buy shares - if the shares are trading below the offer price you can have your money back.
Someone entering a share option three-year contract today will get a fixed rate of interest on their savings, currently 4.83 per cent a year (equivalent to 6.04 per cent for a basic-rate taxpayer and 8.05 per cent for a higher-rate taxpayer). Rates on a five-year plan are slightly lower.
If, at the end of the savings period, the company's price has risen above the share option price, you will clearly be better off exercising the option. If the share price has fallen below the share option price you can just take out your savings.
When you exercise the share option you receive a share certificate stating how many shares your cash fund has purchased. The shares can then be held as an investment or sold. If you hold on to the shares you can keep them tax-free by transferring up to pounds 7,000 into an individual savings account during the 1999-2000 tax year (pounds 5,000 after this).
You can also cash in shares worth up to pounds 7,100 and pay no capital gains tax (providing you have no other gains from selling assets). The CGT allowance is per person, so a you can transfer ownership of some shares to a spouse and sell up to pounds 14,200-worth without paying CGT.
As an example of just how lucrative these schemes can be, a pounds 250-per- month investment in 1991 in the Pearson seven-year SAYE scheme would have produced savings of pounds 15,000 over five years. After another two years, a bonus equivalent to 30 months' contributions, or pounds 7,500, would bring the building society account to pounds 22,500. (For schemes starting now, the equivalent bonus would be 13.5 months' contributions.)
With a share option price of pounds 2.99, the pounds 22,500 would buy 7,525 Pearson shares (in practice only 7,511 shares because of an internal adjustment). Pearson shares were trading at pounds 13.15 on 16 April 1999, giving the 7,511 shares a value of pounds 98,769 if sold on that date.
Even saving just pounds 50 per month over seven years gives staggering returns. In the same scheme a total of pounds 4,500 saved would have been worth pounds 19,725.
Martin Korn, a senior partner at Blick Rothenberg, chartered accountants in London, says these schemes are a good introduction to the stock market. "This really is an ideal vehicle for inexperienced investors because they can gain exposure to the equity market on a risk-free basis."
If you work for a large FT-SE quoted company, ask the human resources department whether there is a SAYE share option scheme. This is an investment designed for those who intend to stay with their employer for several years - but even if you leave, you have still made savings and can transfer them to an ISA when you leave the firm.

Jaleel White net worth: Jaleel White is an American actor and producer who has a net worth of $10 million. Jaleel White was born in Pasadena, California on November 27, 1976. An actor and screenwriter, Jaleel White is most widely recognized from his role as Steve Urkel on the hit 90s sitcom, "Family Matters". Before Family Matters, Jaleel appeared in a handful of commercials after being encouraged by a pre-school teacher to try out acting. He also landed a few small parts on various 1980s TV shows like "The Jeffersons" and "Mr Belvedere". His huge hit, Family Matters, would eventually go on to air 215 episodes over nine seasons between 1989 and 1997. On the show, Jaleel played a nerdy neighbor to the Winslow family. Steve Urkel became a cultural phenomenon and spawned the popular catch prase "Did I do that"? In order to land the role, Jaleel borrowed a large pair of eye glasses that his father, who was a dentist, frequently wore while at work. Since "Family Matters" he has starred or guest-starred in such series as "Grown Ups", "Psych", and "The Game". He also wrote, produced and starred in his own web series, "Fake It Till You Make It" and is the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog. He was a contestant on season 14 of Dancing with the Stars and was voted off the show in May 2012.

9 Questions to Ask When Your Relationship Starts Getting Serious
By Paul Angone
January 28, 2014
Paul Angone is passionate about helping people find their Signature Sauce. He is a national speaker, the creator of AllGroanUp.com, and the author of ... Read More
Is this "The ONE?"
When I was dating I remember constantly being smothered with that one giant question.
That was the point of dating, right? To magically stumble upon "The One" like finding the gold at the end of a rainbow that is being carried by a unicorn with leprechaun jockey.
But how are you supposed to know which one is the right one?
Instead of being constantly squashed by this huge question when your relationship starts getting more serious, you should ask yourself these nine questions instead:
1. Do I want to become like this person?
Marriage is like rolling Play-Doh: the more two different colors are meshed together the harder it becomes to distinguish one from another.
In marriage you begin to rub off on each other, subtly taking on traits and characteristics of the other.
Does this thought excite you or does it make you feel like you just digested a can of the aforementioned Play-Doh?
Yes, in marriage you still are your own person. And you need to have your own identity beyond your spouse. But if you don't want to become like the person you're dating, should you be dating?
2. Am I attracted to this person? (and more than just to how they look?)
One of the biggest lies of our culture is that attraction is solely about appearance.
If you can just get your hair, abs, complexion, and clothes just right, then "The One" will scamper to you like a squirrel to a nut factory.
However, attraction runs much deeper than looks. Sure, appearance might catch someone's eye, but it's personality, values, faith, heart and those other intangible things that's going to make them stay.
Looks might deplete, but true beauty never fades.
3. Do our core values and beliefs repel or compel each other?
We all have values that direct us and help us make decisions—those beliefs that are fundamental to how you are wired, guiding your actions, thoughts, plans and purpose on this earth.
The problem is most of us have never articulated what those values really are. And if you don't know your values, how can you expect your partner to have a clue?
These values go beyond just your stated religion. Two people who are following Christ can still have some different core values that tangibly direct their decisions.
For example, you could have a high value for responsibility and the person you're dating could have a high value for risk. Both values are good and not necessarily incompatible, but if not articulated and discussed, it could be a point of high conflict if the responsible person likes consistency and persistence, while the risk-taker likes changing things up and going for the impossible.
Too many marriages start (and end) with vague and un-identified core values.
4. Does this person challenge me?
Is your partner trying to force you to become like them? Become like some figment of their unrealistic dating imagination? Or are they challenging you to become more like Christ and consequently, become a better, authentic you?
Your significant other shouldn't seek to totally change you, but they should seek to challenge you to grow. And they should be growing alongside you, as well.
5. How does their family communicate?
We all go through intense, all-encompassing communication training for years; it's called childhood. And it's hard to un-wire 18 years of being shown how to talk and listen to others in family situations.
Sure we're not our parents, and we can work to change our communication habits. However, for many of us, our fallback communication plan will be the one our parents laid out for us.
Holidays, especially, are giving you a glimpse into how your partner has been taught and trained. Don't just sit back and eat that holiday ham. Sit up and take notes, because believe me, you'll want to feel prepared for the test that comes later.
6. Do they love from their insecurities or do they love from their strengths?
I first asked this question in 11 Questions Every Twentysomething Should Ask, and I think it boils down to this: Is their love based on you or is their love based on them?
Does your partner seek out ways to understand how you receive love and meet that need? Do you do the same?
If you or the person you're dating loves out of their insecurities, their love will be needy and selfish. After all, love can be the worst form of manipulation there is.
But when someone loves from their strengths, they know who they are and are drawing from a deep, full well to give to you without demanding a drink in return.
7. Have you both tackled your monsters?
We all have insecurities, fears, failures, painful memories, and just all around unattractive stuff we're hiding in the back of our closet.
But just because you want to pretend your monsters don't exist doesn't mean they're just going to magically go away. And marriage has the amazing ability to take all that you hoped would remain hidden and put it on stage for a nationally televised interview that your in-laws will be watching.
Tackle your monsters now. Don't let them crush your relationship later.
As I wrote in my book 101 Secrets for your Twenties,"Newly married and living in a small apartment is no place to store a luggage set full of your baggage. Begin to ditch those bags now."
8. Do we enjoy doing the mundane together?
Marriage is as everyday as it gets.
Marriage is budgets, laundry, broken toilets, work, weddings, funerals, births and everything in-between.
Can you envision enjoying everyday life with the person you're dating?
Again as I wrote in my book, "If you don't enjoy going to the grocery store with this person to buy eggs or changing the clothes at the laundromat, then you might not enjoy doing marriage. Because marriage is built on a million more mundane moments than magical."
9. What's their vision for the future?
How do you envision marriage after 10 years? Are you traveling the world with your spouse? Do you have three kids encased in white picket glory? Are you both working corporate jobs? Are you doing missions work in a different country? Do you have six kids and are driving a bus across the nation to perform a family rhythmic gymnastics routine at county fairs?
Your plans, goals, and ideas of the future change–but people who refuse to talk about it rarely do.
If your visions for the future look very different, it's better to discuss it now than to be surprised by it later.

Remember that dating often tends to be a time when people conceal information that marriage will inevitably reveal. This is why we must guard our hearts and use our brains. Let your head lead your heart when it comes to relationships. Do not give your heart to anyone until your head has processed the necessary data to tell you that you are making a wise decision. If you give your heart to a bad relationship and I try to talk your head out of it, no matter how much sense I make, I will not likely be successful.

These are all great questions! My only pushback is that they should be asked way before "Your Relationship Starts Getting Serious." These questions should be resolved before allowing yourself to build any emotional attachment whatsoever.
My wife and I plowed through all of this (and a quite a lot more) on our first date. That may seem a little odd to some, but we didn't see any point in dating at all if we had no real possibility together. After all the serious stuff was out of the way, we could just have fun dating one another, knowing that we were moving toward a good marriage (which it certainly has been).

You mustn't forget about if they're in the relationship for wealth and money. Although money comes and goes and that it is important to have in order to survive in society, it shouldn't be the top priority on maintaining the relationship. Money should be mostly used to buy food and household payments and not for prized possessions. Don't get me wrong, buying things for your significant other is a nice and good thing but if it's something you have to be constant and consistent in then your relationship isn't based upon God nor will it truly work out as a relationship.
Dr iayaryi Help Me To Stop A Divorce And Save My Marriage Today?
Hello to every one out here, am here to share the unexpected miracle that happened to me three days ago, My name is Edward Chezhyan, i live in TEXAS,USA.and I`m happily married to a lovely and caring wife,with two kids A very big problem occurred in my family seven months ago,between me and my wife so terrible that she took the case to court for a divorce she said that she never wanted to stay with me again,and that she did not love me anymore So she packed out of my house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get her back,after much begging,but all to no avail and she confirmed it that she has made her decision,and she never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my wife So i explained every thing to her,so she told me that the only way i can get my wife back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for her too So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow her advice. Then she gave me the email address of the spell caster whom she visited. (firstname.lastname@example.com), So the next morning,i sent a mail to the address she gave to me,and the spell caster assured me that i will get my wife back the next day what an amazing statement!! I never believed,so he spoke with me,and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my wife who did not call me for the past seven {7}months,gave me a call to inform me that she was coming back So Amazing!! So that was how she came back that same day,with lots of love and joy,and she apologized for her mistake,and for the pain she caused me and my children. Then from that day,our relationship was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . So, was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . if you are in any condition like this,or you have any problem related to "bringing your ex back. So thanks to Dr iayaryi for bringing back my wife,and brought great joy to my family once again.(email@example.com) , Thanks.
I love the advice on the communication part. However, It has been my experience that my husband (comes from a divorced/broken family with poor communication skills) is the one in the relationship that pushes strong communication between us. My parents are still happily married but I cannot remember ever seeing my parents fight. It turns out, they made an agreement that they would never fight in front of us kids. So, I avoid conflict like the plague. It has been interesting to work at communication with my husband because he gets worked up over lack of communication in conflict because he has seen it tear a marriage apart. I have had to work past my fear of conflict to communicate with him. We did not learn this about each other until going through premarital counseling, well after our relationship got serious. I am thankful for God's grace every day in my marriage as we grow and learn together.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in formation of scar tissue that is a potent barrier to axon regeneration. This scar is comprised of excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules in both rodents and humans. Why most axons fail to grow into this ECM-rich region is not fully understood. In vitro assays have implicated fibroblasts as a major source of inhibitory ECM molecules, but whether this also true in vivo is not clear. While the meninges were thought to be the primary source of fibroblasts after SCI, recent evidence indicates that the perivascular niche could be an alternative source of the scar tissue. The overall goal of this proposal is to determine the role of perivascular fibroblasts in scar formation in order to promote axon regeneration after contusive SCI by pursuing the following aims: 1) Determine the temporospatial distribution and the cellular fate of fibroblasts after contusive SCI 2) Determine the effect of fibroblast ablation on scar formation and axon regeneration after SCI. 3) Determine the role of fibroblast PDGFR-? on scar formation and axon regeneration after SCI. Our proposed studies will fill a gap in knowledge about the role of fibroblasts in animal models of SCI and may reveal new therapeutic targets to treat SCI patients.
Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) suffer from permanent disabilities but have limited treatment and therapeutic options. A major reason for the permanent deficits is the inability of axons in the spinal cord to regenerate through the scar tissue that develops at the injury site. Fibroblasts have been implicated as a major component of this scar tissue, but there have been limited animal studies directly addressing this issue. We will use genetics and pharmacology in animal models to test whether targeting fibroblasts can reduce scarring and promote axon regeneration and functional recovery after SCI.

Neuroblastoma (NB) continues to be the most common extracranial solid tumor in children. The majority of high-risk NB patients show an initial response to therapy but ultimately relapse, suggesting that acquired drug resistance or selection of therapy-resistant cells occurs with chemotherapy treatment. This presents a major obstacle for treatment. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that mediate resistance to chemotherapy and targeting key molecules in this pathway are pivotal for curing this disease. NF-?B activation is frequently encountered in tumor cells and it is believed to be one of the mechanisms of cancer chemotherapy resistance. Chemotherapeutic agents and radiation therapy can activate NF-?B. TAK1 is a pivotal kinase intermediate for IKK and MAPK activations, as well as IL-6 gene expression in response to multiple stimuli. Recently, interactions between tumor and inflammatory cells have been reported to contribute to the clinical metastatic NB phenotype. A galectin-3-dependent pathway in NB cells has been found to upregulate IL-6 in the microenvironment of human NB. IL-6 expression in stromal cells and macrophages promotes NB proliferation in tumor microenvironment. TAK1 mediates NF-?B and MAPK activations in response to genotoxic stresses. Given that NF-?B and MAPK activations are two major survival signals, we hypothesize that inhibition of TAK1 activation may disrupt the balance between cell-death and cell-survival, and sensitize cells to chemotherapy resulting in cell death. Furthermore, TAK1 inhibition in stromal cells and tumor-associated macrophages may block tumor-induced IL-6 expression and disrupt their functional interaction with NB cells in tumor microenvironment. In our preliminary studies, we have found that TAK1 inhibition by a small molecule inhibitor (5Z-7-oxozeaenol) significantly enhances the sensitivity of NB cells to chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo. The central hypothesis of this work is that TAK1 plays an important role in chemoresistance of NB by mediating the interaction of NB tumor cells with stromal cells and tumor-associated macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. The proposed experiments will test this hypothesis by using an orthotopic and TH-MYCN transgenic mouse models to analyze the effect of TAK1 inhibitor on tumor chemoresistance and tumor microenvironment.
The specific aims for this application are: 1) to determine whether TAK1 inhibitor sensitizes NB cells to chemotherapy in both orthotopic xenograft and TH-MYCN transgenic mouse models of NB;2) to determine the effect of TAK1 inhibition on the interaction of NB cells and tumor microenvironment in these models. The proposed project, will establish TAK1 as a therapeutic target in NB. Furthermore, this small molecule inhibitor of TAK1 kinase may serve as a potential adjunct in the treatment of high-risk NB patients. The long-term goal of this proposal is to identify and validate potential druggable enzymatic targets for therapeutic intervention of this devastating disease in children.
TAK1, a member of MAP kinase kinase family, plays an essential role in mediating NF-?B and MAPK activation and IL-6 gene expression in response to inflammatory stimuli and genotoxic stresses. In our preliminary studies, by using a panel of NB cell lines including a chemoresistant NB cell line, we have found that TAK1 inhibition by its small molecule inhibitor (5Z-7-oxozeaenol) significantly enhances the sensitivity of NB cells to chemotherapy-induced cell-death in vitro and in vivo. In this research proposal, we aim to determine whether inhibition of TAK1 activity is able to sensitize neuroblastoma to chemotherapies and disrupt the functional interaction of tumor cells with other types of cells via inhibition of IL-6 gene expression in tumor microenvironment.

Youngs Property Management Solutions
Management, Real Estate Agents, Property Management
A home owner in Balmoral unhappy with the current service they were getting from their property manager were overseas in the UK when they bumped into one of our current landlords whom referred our services.
Their property had been sitting vacant for 2months. The first thing that I had noticed was that the property had been over priced by at least $50. There's been a lot of media hype leaving owners disillusioned about what prices that can expect to achieve for their properties. In saying that yes - rents are on the rise but by how much and which parts of Auckland this effects are varied and if your property manager isn't familiar with the area or researches the area properly can leave you out of pocket.
I listed the property at a lower price and rented it in 4days to tenants with clear credit history and a very good referral from their current landlord, the owners of the property in Balmoral wanted to sell in the new year so I negotiated for a clause to be put in the tenancy agreement to allow for a car port and house paint to be completed towards the end of the year which the tenants agreed to.
Contacting a professional that understands the market and can negotiate to meet your needs is important when tenanting you property. This is what I offer consistently.

I'm happy to see this iris bloom. I almost lost Flopsy to the evil
borers a couple years ago. Finally blooming size again. The flowers are
truly huge, This one is 8 1/2 inches across. All 6 falls have beards.
