Toyota car, truck, or SUV enthusiasts have grown accustomed to a certain level of best-in-class value when driving their Tundra around town. Anyone who operates a Toyota knows that when it comes to repairing their vehicle only the most superior replacement parts will do. When your Toyota Tundra rolled off the assembly line, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values economical pricing in their automobile. Auto enthusiasts know that a variety of features and options is built into each Toyota, and know that only the best replacement Tundra parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
The handling of your car or truck is the result of an evolved suspension. The most overlooked components on your suspension are the sway bar bushings. When you navigate a corner in your Toyota Tundra, the chassis rolls away from the turn slightly. When it does this, the sway bar applies opposite torsion against the rolling of your chassis. Your Toyota Tundra sway bar bushings absorb the vibrations that would result from driving down the road, as well as keep the sway bar in place when it flexes during a turn.
Don't let a broken Sway Bar Bushing spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by using anything but the best replacement parts. Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy. Buying new Toyota parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement Tundra parts on the internet. If your car or truck was built in 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, then you will find the correct Toyota Tundra Sway Bar Bushing parts right here.

Hamper Emporium loves Australian craft beers; this is quite clear when you have a look at our range of beer gift hampers. If you want to gift a great gift hamper with only Australian craft beers, we can recommend getting one of our MicroBreweries of Australia Gift Hampers. Curious what craft beers are hidden in this Hamper Emporium hamper? Read on and explore all the craft beers present in Hamper Emporium's gift hampers range!
Which Craft Beers Can I Find in Hamper Emporium's MicroBreweries Gift Hampers?
The Microbreweries of Australia Hamper is packed with craft beers from some of the best craft beer breweries in Australia, which include Burleigh Brewing My Wife's Bitter, Murray's Angry Man Pale Ale, Feral, Lord Nelson and the Bridge Road Brewers.
Burleigh is definitely on top of our list where craft beers are concerned. The brewery brews their excellent beers according to ancient brewing traditions and only uses an absolute minimum of automation to get their beers on the market. Some of the beers that currently carry the Burleigh label are Duke Premium, Duke Helles and My Wife's Bitter.
Of course, Murray's is also quite known within Australia. They are better known under the name Murray's Brewing Company and are renowned for their unusual beer names and labels. Some of the beer names you can expect from Murray's are the Kaiser, Melon Rouge and Pumpkin Ale. Their beers also won a variety of awards during Australian beer events, so a beer from this brewery is definitely worth a try.
Feral Brewing is another beer brewery that contributed to our MicroBreweries of Australia Hamper. Similar to Murray's, Feral Sly Fox Summer Ale is well known for remarkable beer names. Some of their releases include names such as Sly Fox, Smoked Porter and the Runt. If you like a unique craft beer with a flavour unlike any other beer, Feral Brewing beers will not disappoint.
Customers can also find Lord Nelson beers in our range of gift hampers. Lord Nelson Three Sheets Ale is actually a combination of hotel, pub and brewery, so this brewery knows how to create beers that go really well with most pub foods. If you like your pub foods, be sure to try one of Lord Nelson's beer!
Last but not least, Hamper Emporium also included beers from the Bridge Road Brewers. The Bridge Road Brewers started brewing in 2005. Since the foundation of the brewery, they have released some excellent ales, ciders and beers, including the Golden Ale, Little Bling, Robust Porter and Scrumpy cider.
Of course, you'll probably want a few nibbles to help wash down this unique selection of Australia Craft Beers. This hamper includes products from Morgan & Albert Premium Nibbles or Thomas Chipman's Cracked Pepper Chips. Then dip the Baylies Epicurean Delights Lavash, handmade with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, in the Sundried Tomato Tapenade or Kalamata with Roast Garlic Tapendade from Random Harvest with these chips. And finally, for a chewy and flavoursome treat made with 100% Australian Beef, tuck into the Jack's Black Label Jerky.
Can I Find More Australian Beers on the Hamper Emporium?
In addition to our MicroBreweries of Australia Hamper, customers can find more hampers with Australian beers in our range. Other gift hampers that are more than worth exploring are our James Squire Ale Hampers or our ANZAC Ciders Hampers.
Hamper Emporium also acquired a nice selection of international beers, so beer lovers will certainly find something to their liking on our site. For delicious international beers, please head over to our Corona Beer Hampers, United Nations of Beer Hampers or the Premium United Nations of Beer Hampers.
Looking to use this hamper as a corporate gift the addition of a personalised gift tag is perfect. This is also one of the possibilities if you have chosen to shop with Hamper Emporium. If you are interested in corporate gifts, do not hesitate to check out our corporate hamper category as well.

blank projects: JAN-HENRI BOOYENS - SAVE IT TILL THE MORNING AFTER - 6 June 2013 to 6 July 2013 Current Exhibition |
Jan-Henri Booyens. Ruins of her former self. 2013
Oil on canvas 200 x 170cm |
JAN-HENRI BOOYENS SAVE IT TILL THE MORNING AFTER 06/06/2013 - 06/07/2013 blank projects is proud to host the fifth solo exhibition of critically acclaimed painter Jan-Henri Booyens. Booyens' work is often described in terms of a struggle between the representational and abstract, the rational and chaotic. An affinity and critical engagement with Modernism is coupled with his relationship to the South African landscape, both social and physical. For his latest work, Booyens has affected subtle iconographic shift from forms that allude of the art historical 'landscape' to those of the 'still life'. Booyens's flower like-forms explode in abstract compositions and assemblages of studio detritus, where form and colour fracture and falter in 70s impasto kitch, Stella stripes, colour supernovas and jpeg disintegration. Booyens has been described as "a forerunner of a new kind of formalism in local art"¹. Born in Johannesburg in 1980, he lives and works between Cape Town and Pretoria. He studied at the Durban Institute of Technology and the Gerrit Rietveld Academie voor Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam, and currently teaches in the Visual Arts Department at the University of Stellenboosch. Booyens is also one-third of the infamous artist collective Avant Car Guard. His work is part of numerous collections, including the Cartier Foundation for Contemporary Art in Paris. Solo exhibitions include 'The Matt Sparkle' (Whatiftheworld, Cape Town 2008), 'People Used To Dream About The Future' (artSPACE Berlin 2009) and 'Tectonic' (Whatiftheworld, Cape Town 2010). His previous show at blank, 'Strange Days', was held in April 2012. ¹Mary Corrigall, 2012, 'Pulling Things Apart: Jan-Henri Booyens'. blank projects 113-115 Sir Lowry road, Woodstock, Cape Town Jonathan Garnham +27 72 1989 221 Pierre Fouché +27 72 507 5951 email@example.com www.blankprojects.com Gallery opening hours: Tue-Fri: 10:00-16:30, Sat: 10:00-13:00.

Miami: NASA on Thursday outlined the many challenges that remain before humans can set foot on Mars, calling the problems "solvable" but setting no firm date for an astronaut mission to the Red Planet.
Updated details of the US space agency's Mars strategy were contained in a 36-page document released to the public ahead of upcoming talks with Congress about budgets for space exploration and a major international meeting of the space industry to be held in Jerusalem next week.
The US is "closer to sending American astronauts to Mars than at any point in our history," said NASA administrator Charles Bolden.
"In the coming weeks, I look forward to continuing to discuss the details of our plan with members of Congress, as well as our commercial and our international partners, many of whom will be attending the International Astronautical Congress next week," he said in a statement.
Astronauts who journey to Mars could spend three years in deep space, where radiation is high and so are the risks of cancer, bone loss and immune problems, said the document, called "NASA's Journey to Mars: Pioneering Next Steps in Space Exploration."
"Living and working in space require accepting risk, and the journey is worth the risk," it said, calling Mars "an achievable goal" and "the next tangible frontier for expanding human presence."
The plan ahead is divided into three stages, the first of which is already under way with testing and experiments on human health and behaviour, life support systems like growing food and recycling water, and 3-D printing aboard the International Space Station.
The second phase, called "Proving Ground," begins in 2018 with the launch of the new deep space capsule Orion and the most powerful rocket ever built, known as the Space Launch System, or SLS.
The space agency plans to practice other missions in the area of space between the Earth and Moon, or in the Moon's orbit, known as cislunar space.
These include sending a robotic spacecraft in 2020 to lasso a boulder from a near-Earth asteroid and ferry it to an area in deep space that astronauts can investigate.
"NASA will learn to conduct complex operations in a deep space environment that allows crews to return to Earth in a matter of days," said the report.
"Primarily operating in cislunar space, NASA will advance and validate capabilities required for human exploration of Mars."
The third phase involves living and working on Mars' surface and in transiting spaceships "that support human life for years, with only routine maintenance," as well as "harvesting Martian resources to create fuel, water, oxygen, and building materials."
NASA gave no precise dates for this phase in the report, though one graphic mentioned "human missions to Mars vicinity in 2030+."
As NASA presses further into space, the agency acknowledged that the problems will grow more complex.
"Future missions will face increasingly difficult challenges associated with transportation, working in space, and staying healthy," said the report.
NASA also said it needs to develop adequate space suits for deep space exploration, and must test advanced solar electric propulsion to power spacecraft efficiently.
"NASA will have to learn new ways of operating in space," said the report.
"Crews must be protected from the unique hazardous environments of deep space and on the Martian surface. Often, systems will have to operate autonomously or remain dormant for years in preparation for crew," it said.
"Overcoming these challenges will be essential on the journey to Mars."
Before humans ever set foot there, the US space agency and global partners plan a series of new robotic rovers, adding to those already sent by NASA, including the Curiosity rover which touched down in 2012.
Even that rover's spectacular sky-crane powered landing must be completely revamped for a human-scale landing, which would be 20-30 times heavier.
A vehicle to lift humans from the surface of Mars into Mars' orbit is also needed, and is considered "critical to crew survival."
NASA said "the most important challenge for human pioneering missions is keeping the crew safe for long-duration missions up to 1,100 days." AFP

Daytona Beach, Fla. Diapers, latex gloves and other items found in an ex-astronaut's car can be used as evidence when the woman accused of driving 1,000-miles to confront a romantic rival goes to trial, an appeals court ruled.
But the three-judge panel said Friday that Lisa Nowak's six-hour police interview after her arrest cannot be used.
Nowak has pleaded not guilty to attempted kidnapping, battery and burglary with assault. She is accused of trying to abduct Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman from the Orlando International Airport in February 2007. Nowak and Shipman were vying for the affections of the same space shuttle pilot.
A lower court judge also threw out Nowak's comments from the interview, saying investigators took advantage of the former astronaut, who had not slept for more than 24 hours, coercing her into giving information.
"The trial court applied the correct legal standards in determining that Nowak neither waived her Miranda rights, nor voluntarily spoke with police," the appeals panel ruled. "Consequently, the state cannot use the statements that Nowak made during her custodial interview with police as part of its direct case."
The judges' decision to admit the car's contents reversed an earlier ruling. Besides the diapers, authorities found maps from Houston to the Orlando airport and a map to Shipman's Cape Canaveral home.
A knife, mallet and a BB gun resembling a real handgun will also be allowed as evidence.
No trial date for Nowak has been set. She is free on bail.
Her attorney has said that the diapers were her children's and that she did not wear them during her trip from Texas.
"The police used coercive tactics, and her interview was not voluntary," her attorney, Donald Lykkebak told Florida Today in a written statement. "Captain Nowak looks forward to returning to the circuit court and defending all charges."
He did not immediately return a phone call or e-mail sent Saturday by The Associated Press.
Nowak, a Navy captain, was dismissed from the astronaut corps after her arrest and has since been on active duty at a Navy base in Corpus Christi, Texas.

inGary has been practicing with his green screen set up in preparation for work he is doing for the Prescott Public Library. Yesterday I posted a photo of him working with the police chief. Earlier in the process I was the model, or the voice activated lighting dummy. Model sounds better, no?
He got a nice shot of me and rat terrier Stacy, we were in front of the green screen. Then he used software to subtract the green background, and add in a background from another photo. So here I appear with Stacy in front of some urban tagging art. Gary created my shadow in Photoshop to make the composite realistic. It's hard to tell this is a Photoshop composite as he did a really good job.
For the library project, Gary is going to make a set of posters to promote reading.

Which of you really yearn for a 15" MacBook Air? I travel a lot for work so, in terms of weight, I'd appreciate the MacBook Air to reduce weight of my luggage, however, when I get to my destination, I have to work many hours, so I'd prefer a 15" for doing work. I presently own these Apple notebooks - MBA 11", MBA 13" and MBP 15". I find that the 11" is perfectly fine for fun stuff, browsing websites, doing email and Facebook, and also for writing text. But it gets cramped when I'm stressed and need to work fast. I can't give a reason for it, but when I've tons of work to do, and need to work fast, it's at those times that the tiny 11" screen just irritates me. To be honest, I've never felt that the 13" was terribly cramped when using any particular app - as I have sometimes with the 11" -- so you would think that the 13" is the ideal travel-work compromise. However, the 13" starts to feel smallish when you need to work with multiple windows open at the same time, e.g. word processor, browser, email. Not just multitasking, but needing to see all those windows at the same time for the purpose of the work you're doing. That's when the 13" starts to feel too small. And that's precisely the scenario I have many times when doing serious work - as opposed to just relaxing reading the internet. However, the 15" just feels really nice and expansive. I just enjoy working on a 15". So my ideal would be a 15" MacBook Air without Retina screen. The resolution of the current 15" screens is fine for me. From my several trips to the Apple Store to play with the 15" Retina, I've never really wished I had a Retina screen. Now, you might say that the 15" Retina is Apple's response to us who want a 15" MBA. Maybe so, but right now, the Retina is priced ridiculously. Furthermore, for travel, I would still prefer something lighter than the current 15" Retina. So I am really hoping that Apple haven't forgotten the idea of a 15" MacBook Air.
The new thinner MBP really isn't far off. It wouldn't bother me either way if they released a 15" air, I would have thought it would take away from its ultimate portability. 11" is a little small for me. 13" Is perfect and I just dock into a big monitor when I get to my desk so it's the ideal machine for me. Shows we are all different.
I think the 13" air is in a sweet spot for the casual user. I agree with the other poster that if you want 15" then you might as well get a rMBP with current pricing. A 15" MBA wouldn't weigh that much less with the tapered front although it would have a killer battery life with that added room and no extra graphics chip to drive. Just get a monitor for when you need to "work fast".
I yearn for them to replace the current cMBPs with a version that is nonretina but in the retina form factor.
I did yearn for a 15" MBA before I bought my 13" MBA, because I thought 13" would be to small after I had spent approx. 9 years with a 15" laptop. After the purchase however, I don't yearn any more for an 15" MBA.
Same here. Replaced 15-inch MBP with MBA and love the smaller form factor not to mention how light the thing is.
I realized that the form factor of a 15" machine just isn't portable enough. Heck, I even think the 13" isn't all that portable either... I got to hold the 15rMBP in my hands the other day and was surprised how thin it is (even though still pretty heavy)
Some do; some don't. This has been discussed quite a bit: What happened to that rumored 15-inch MacBook Air? Would You Buy A 15" MacBook Air? Accessory Manufacturer Claims 15-Inch MacBook Air Coming in April Updated MacBook Air Line with New 15-Inch Model Coming in 1Q 2012? The 15 Inch Macbook Air

How painful is BBL?
Doctor Answers 2
Web reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTMfIWb8Sug
Thank you for your question. Every patient's pain tolerance is different. I do prescribe some pain medication during post-operative recovery after a Brazilian butt lift but I have had patients opt to not use prescription pain medication and just use over the counter medication. You will have some discomfort due to swelling and bruising from the liposuction and fat reinjection but everybody experiences different levels of pain after the procedure. If you do not wish to take prescription pain medication or your surgeon doesn't prescribe it for this procedure then you should be able to tolerate any pain with over the counter medication and icing the areas, the body garment can also help with any discomfort you may experience. I hope this helps.
Best of luck in your endeavors!

Private sector HDFC Bank today said parent HDFC, which is majority-owned by FIIs, shouldn't be considered as foreign because changes in the law defining overseas stake in a firm cannot apply retrospectively.
The remarks come in the backdrop of RBI banning foreign investors from picking up more shares in HDFC Bank.
Under the present laws, with HDFC's 22 per cent stake, foreign holding in HDFC Bank exceeds the permissible limit of 74 per cent.
HDFC Bank, however, says HDFC held the stake in its before 2009 and changes in law cannot apply retrospectively.
"We have got legal opinion from one (former) chief justice and another (former) Supreme Court judge, which fundamentally says that since HDFC's holding was there in HDFC Bank prior to the law on deemed foreign companies being passed, that they should be grandfathered," HDFC Bank MD and CEO Aditya Puri said.
"Normally, you do not have retrospective application of the law. So, when that law came in, HDFC already had the holding. Now you have changed the law, that will have to be for future," he added.
At the end December, 2009, FIIs held 59.37 per cent in HDFC.
The government had amended the foreign holding definition in 2009, under which an entity with over 50 per cent overseas investment or controlled by foreigners, is considered foreign-owned.
Parent HDFC is considered foreign as FIIs hold 74 per cent stake in it as on December, 2013.
As per the existing norms, a bank is required to take FIPB approval for increasing its foreign shareholding limit (FII and FDI) beyond 49 per cent and up to 74 per cent respectively. The investment till 49 per cent can be done through automatic route.
As the foreign holding limit in the bank was breached, the RBI had directed that no further purchases of HDFC Bank shares would be allowed through stock exchanges on behalf of overseas investors, including NRIs, persons of Indian origin and holders of depository receipts.
Apart from HDFC's 22.64 per cent, foreign institutional investors own 34.08 per cent in the bank, 0.03 per cent is with qualified foreign investors, 0.33 per cent with NRIs and 16.97 per cent with overseas depository receipt holders.
Puri said the bank has taken the advice of former Chief Justice of India SP Bharucha and former Supreme Court judge B N Srikrishna on the matter, to come to this conclusion.
It can be noted that HDFC Bank has also approached the Foreign Investment Promotion Board to raise its foreign holding limit to 67.55 per cent from the present 49 per cent.
When asked if he is expecting a favourable decision from the FIPB, Puri said: "We are hoping so."
On the move by MSCI India Index to reduce its weight on the bank stock, Puri said it is a natural action for a "dispassionate" player like MSCI to do because of the official action.
Meanwhile, on the bank's sustainability initiatives, Puri said it is already devoting 1-2 per cent of its net profit to CSR activities.
"We were doing it without the mandate. We do believe that all corporations owe a due to society. The quantum you can debate, but the fact that you can do something for the society as a corporate citizen is a must," he said.
Scale and sustainability are key for the bank in its CSR efforts, Puri said, specifying that it has been working in the fields of blood donation, sustainability (by uplifting people from below poverty line), education and replacing moneylenders.
Puri said under its sustainability programme the bank has already helped 2.2 million come above the poverty line through interventions on the loan disbursement front which stresses on know-how sharing, and announced that in the next three years it targets to take up the number to 10 million people.
On the blood donation front, where it set a Guinness record for the largest single-day blood drive with 61,902 participants, Puri said the bank will be targeting to take up the total amount of blood collected to 1 lakh units from the 86,000 in 2013.

Britain's Coldplay gets a warm stateside reception
By Yoshi Kato
WHEN COLDPLAY became the first Shoreline concert announced for the 2003 summer season, the choice seemed an odd one. To its credit, the brainy British modern-rock quartet did sell out the Greek Theatre in Berkeley the previous September. Its debut album, Parachutes, won a Grammy in 2002 for Best Alternative Music Performance. And "In My Place," the first single off the band's sophomore album, A Rush of Blood to the Head, had received respectable airplay at that point.
But news of the Shoreline date, announced last February, came two weeks before Rush of Blood garnered the band two more Grammys--one for Best Alternative Album and another for Best Rock Performance by a Group or Duo. Like many thoughtful artists, Coldplay looked to be richer in respect and admiration than in mass popularity. So the idea of these sensitive yet passionate rockers filling up Shoreline's vast spaces appeared a bit far-fetched.
Fast forward to May, and any concern for empty seats turns out to be entirely unfounded. Only general-admission tickets remain, and Coldplay is one of the biggest sellers of the summer.
For quick proof of the Bay Area's love of the group, one only need go back a few Friday evenings. Jumping up the dial from Alice-FM (97.3) to KFOG-AM (104.5), one could hear "Yellow," Coldplay's breakthrough hit, played right before the "The Scientist," from Rush of Blood. Later that night, Mix 106.5 also gave "Yellow" a spin. On another night, one could catch two other Rush of Blood tracks in a row on different stations--"Clocks" on Channel 104.9-FM just before "In My Place" on KFOG.
The catchy, piano-driven "Clocks" has moved from the radio into other realms of popular culture. The song was used at the close of the recent Ed Burns-Rachel Weisz film Confidence, and it also provided a memorable musical backdrop for the video tribute that the San Francisco Giants put together for ex-manager Dusty Baker's homecoming game last month at PacBell Park.
"They have potential to hang around for a long time," says Haley Jones, KFOG assistant program director. KFOG first added "Yellow" to its playlist in December 2000 and has aired seven other Coldplay songs since then. The station will carry a live broadcast from 9 to 11pm of Coldplay's concert Saturday night at the Hollywood Bowl.
"They're smart adult rock," she continues. "They're not too hard, and they're not too soft. They're perfect."
Coldplay's balance of sonic elements is best represented by singer Chris Martin's effortless switching between guitar and piano. His unwavering strumming provides an underpinning for lead guitarist Jon Buckland's impassioned lines on "Yellow." On "Trouble," Martin lays into reflective pianist mode as bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion provide empathic accompaniment in kind over Buckland's fluid, skyward playing.
Another reason for Coldplay's success is that it did itself and its fans a favor by creating a worthy successor to Parachutes, which was a strong effort with some album tracks sounding as well-crafted as the singles around them. Rush of Blood's opening five tracks have all gotten airplay and are so strong that some listeners never get past them to hear the album's other six songs--which is a shame, since the countrified "Green Eyes," the quite politically driven title track and the quietly lovely "Amsterdam" all come in the second half of the disc.
"It's really been quite surprising, the level of response we've gotten from you guys," Berryman said, in a phone interview from early 2001. Judging from the love Coldplay has been receiving from radio and the anticipated enthusiasm of the Shoreline crowd, the adoration has clearly yet to wane.

I recently got a new workstation, Dell Precision T7610 with the Nvidia K5000 graphics card running Redhat v6.5. Let the problem fixing begin. My current issue is extra lines/triangles/polygons showing up on my CCM+ scenes. They come and go with image rotation but are not visible when I use the mesa option. They are visible when Ive exported the scene from CCM+ as well as seen when I capture the screen with kSnapShot. Weve tried various releases of the available graphics drivers without success. Has anyone seen this problem and/or know a fix?

Piazza Trilussa, 41
00153 Rome
06 5833 3920
Bar: daily 6pm–2am
Restaurant: daily 8pm–midnight
Trastevere, Rome –
Whether patrons are well versed in the intricacies of wine appreciation or just simply love il vino Italiano, Ferrara is the place in which to indulge – or discover – a passion for fine wine.
Easy to miss among all the other wine bars and restaurants in the area, Ferrara is distinguished by the signature decals from nearly every important food and wine magazine in Italy that are displayed at both entrances.
Patrons who prefer to watch the bustle of the square can pull up a wicker chair outside, while those who need a break can enter the cool peace of the narrow bar whose atmosphere is conducive to learning about wine or just having an uninterrupted conversation.
A short set of stairs leads down to an intimate room with scattered tiled tables, from which guests can continue into the restaurant or go down a few more steps into the tasting room, which features large wooden tables surrounded by row upon row of shelved bottles.
Regardless of where the mature and curious patrons are, there is always a sommelier on hand to help them choose a flavor and navigate the immense menu that covers every pertinent detail of the 1,200 Italian labels in Ferrara's collection.
When the waiters aren't too busy, they're more than happy to take guests into the cellar to see their extensive collection – some of the oldest wines date back to 1945. Located at Rome's ancient street level, the climate-controlled cellar is a bit musty, but a trip down there is truly a unique experience.
Mixed crowd, late 20s to 40s in the bar, 30s and up in the restaurant.
Soft lounge music. Live jazz on Tuesdays in the winter.
Full menu offered by the award-winning kitchen. Complimentary aperitivo buffet, 6:30–9:30pm.
Appetizers €8–€24, entrées €12–€38. Beer €4–€7, wine €7–€13/glass or €15–€390+/bottle.
Casual in the bar, dressier in the restaurant.
Any evening when wine or a low-key night out in Trastevere fits the mood. Seating is limited, so weeknights are more accommodating, if less celebratory.
Oct 6, 2012
I was here for a lunch with friends last fall and had an exceptional meal. Each of the four of us was delighted with our food. The wine list appeared to be a 4" 3-ring binder with labels, reviews and wine characteristics. The best we saw in Rome. But while this was "fine food and wine dining" it was a casual and warm atmosphere.
College students were filling in the rest of the restaurant....some Italian... some from the US having a year abroad. All were comparing venues and places to gather and party. ( One in my party told them to refer to the PE website!)

Puma Biotechnology, Inc. (PBYI) saw a big move last session, as the company's shares fell by over 18% on the day. The move came on pretty good volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading below the volatile price range of $122.06 to $103.96 in the past one-month time frame.
This biopharmaceutical company has seen a mixed track record when it comes to current year estimate revisions. However, the current year loss consensus has narrowed over the past few weeks. This recent price action is discouraging, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future, and especially on earnings estimates following the recent slump
PBYI currently has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
Some better-ranked stocks in the Med-Biomed Generic sector include Alkermes plc (ALKS), Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ALXN) and ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ANIP). All these stocks carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Outcomes Assessor) Primary Purpose: Prevention |
Official Title: | Transfusion-related Acute Lung Injury in Patients With Liver Disease |
- Mean change in PaO2/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ratio [ Time Frame: Enrollment to 6 hours after the cessation of the transfusion protocol (54 hours) ]The development of hypoxemia will not distinguish between hydrostatic edema and TRALI, but investigators believe a significant change in oxygenation is clinically relevant and a more sensitive outcome variable for all transfusion-related pulmonary complications and therefore appropriate for use in this clinical trial.
- Bleeding complication (y/n) [ Time Frame: 120 hour from admission ]Baveno V consensus conference definition for failure to control bleeding
- Transfusion-related acute lung injury [ Time Frame: enrollment to 54 hours post-enrollment ]The development of consensus definition ALI within 6 hours of a transfused blood component.
- 28 day and ICU Mortality [ Time Frame: enrollment to 28 days ]Mortality in ICU (y/n); Mortality at 28 days post enrollment (y/n)
- ICU and Hospital length of Stay [ Time Frame: days ]We will measure number of days subjects are alive and in the ICU or hospital
- Change in oxygen saturation (SPO2)/FiO2 ratio (∆S/F) before and after transfusion [ Time Frame: enrollment to 54 hours post enrollment ]The mean ∆S/F ratio immediately before and 60 minutes after transfusion of plasma vs. (RBCs or platelets) will allow investigators to analyze changes in oxygenation over time to further delineate which blood components are most temporarily associated with pulmonary edema.
- Ventilator-free days [ Time Frame: enrollment to 28 days ]Investigators will determine how many days a patient is alive and off mechanical ventilation at day 28 from enrollment.

Primary Completion Date: | August 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: High INR
Transfuse plasma to High INR target. Plasma will be transfused to reach a target INR=2.5 for 48 hours while patient is actively bleeding.
Other: Transfuse plasma to High INR target
Using a dosing algorithm we will bolus plasma to reach an INR target (2.5) while patient is actively bleeding or 48 hours whichever comes first
Active Comparator: Low INR
Transfuse plasma to Low INR target. Plasma will be transfused to reach a target INR=1.8 for 48 hours while patient is actively bleeding.
Other: Transfuse plasma to Low INR target
Using a dosing algorithm we will bolus plasma to reach an INR target (1.8) while patient is actively bleeding or 48 hours whichever comes first
Detailed Description:
Advances in the understanding of the coagulation imbalance in liver disease have experts questioning the clinical efficacy of current plasma transfusion practices in patients with liver disease. Having recently discovered a large previously unrecognized risk (TRALI) of plasma transfusion in this patient population, the investigators now believe the current clinical transfusion paradigm under-recognizes risk and overvalues the benefit of plasma transfusion in bleeding patients with liver disease. Though experts have recommended more judicious use of plasma, clinical practice remains variable. Transfusion triggers and thresholds are often arbitrarily set based on conventional coagulation studies and evidence to guide clinicians on plasma dosing required to achieve these laboratory thresholds does not exist. The investigators hypothesize that a restrictive plasma transfusion strategy in critically ill chronic liver disease patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding will decrease a surrogate measure of TRALI without increasing bleeding complications (figure 1). With the collaborative support of the pulmonary/critical care, hepatology, and transfusion medicine services, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing a restrictive versus liberal strategy of plasma transfusion in bleeding patients with liver disease. In addition, investigators will refine and validate our plasma transfusion dosing algorithm so clinicians will have the tools to appropriately dose plasma to reach evidence-based transfusion targets.
The development of TRALI is believed to require two pathophysiologic events. First, a pro-inflammatory stimulus, such as sepsis, leads to exposure of endothelial surface adhesion proteins and consequent capture of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) within the pulmonary microvasculature. Second, these adherent PMNs are activated by mediators within transfused blood components, leading to neutrophilic inflammation and TRALI. Emerging evidence suggests that the process of neutrophil adhesion in the lung involves degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx, a thin layer of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) lining the vascular lumen(S). In mice, sepsis results in pulmonary glycocalyx loss, neutrophil adhesion and subsequent development of ALI(S). Glycocalyx degradation is also associated with organ injury in humans, as evidenced by an increase in circulating GAG fragments (e.g. heparinoids) in septic shock. Circulating heparinoids can be detected quickly and accurately by a point of care heparinase-I modified thromboelastogram (TEG) study26-27. Detection of heparinoids by TEG may therefore indicate pulmonary microvasculature propensity for PMN adhesion (first event) and be utilized as a predictive biomarker for TRALI. Restrictive plasma transfusion strategies could then be individualized to high risk patients to decrease the probability of a second event resulting in the clinical syndrome of TRALI. In conjunction with the clinical trial, investigators will perform a translational observational study to assess whether detection of systemic heparinoids predict the subsequent development of a TRALI surrogate, post-transfusion hypoxemia. These clinical studies will pave the way for larger clinical trials guiding future plasma transfusion practice and decreasing the significant TRALI burden in the critically ill.

REALLY warm gloves?
(60 Posts)I have Raynauds and my hands hurt like hell when it is cold. I need REALLY warm gloves. Wool - no good. Cashmere - no good. Cashmere lined leather - no good. I don't want anything too bulky, because I still need to be able to do things with my hands when I have them on.
Any thoughts anyone? Thank you!
I suffer the same, cashmere lined leather used to be ok but not anymore, will watch with interest!
Crap, isn't it? It's getting to the stage now when I need to start wearing gloves.
I blame my mother
There must be someone from the rugby-pitch-coat thread knocking about.
The Raynaud's association gives links to some apparently great gloves, socks etc that are made using silver. I may try them myself because I just CAN'T get chilblains again this year
I don't know that they exist. The only ones that might be warmer would be heated gloves, ski-ing gloves or sheepskin, but they're all bulky.
Have you tried real fur lined gloves?
The warmest gloves I've ever had are made from possum fur and merino wool. The fur is ethical as the animals are a massive pest and culled in NZ (they are introduced and decimate native floors and fauna). They might not be any good on their own for your extreme situation, but as a liner they will work magic.
I have brought socks and gloves for friends who ride scooter in UK winter and they are in love with them all winter long.
I don't know if anyone sells them in UK but you could buy online.
some possum gloves here
they mix the possum with merino wool as the possum fibre is quite short.
There's an association! Thanks!
Skiing gloves are too bulky. The Uggs might be worth looking at. Not seen fur lined.
they are also very light and easy to wear.
Best bit about winter is getting my possum gloves out.
Thanks for the possum link. They also do nipple and willy warmers (these are separate products) .
ah yes but don't let that put you off
I view it as an incentive!
they threaten native FLORA not native floors!!!
You would not think a knitted glove cold be as warm as these babies are.
Mittens much better than gloves. Try sheepskin mittens with silk glove liners underneath.
UGG Gloves. They are the warmest things my hands have ever known!
I have the ugg mittens and they are very warm. They aren't waterproof though, so don't play around in the snow too much with them.
I used to have some leather ski mittens with fleece lining - they were very warm too, but I lost them somewhere.
I've got the silver gloves and they are brilliant. They are thin enough to do stuff with them on, they keep me warm and I can even use my phone with them on unlike most other gloves so I don't have to take my gloves off when playing on here. I actually got mine on the NHS through my consultant, if you see a consultant for your raynauds it may be worth speaking to them.
Every time the weather is cold, a few of my fingers turn white and numb and both little toes go white and numb (Always thought I had a touch of Raynaud's but never bothered doctor) so I'm looking for both warm gloves and warm socks! Mother just bought me sheepskin insoles to try and help a bit...still worrying!
Yup - another Raynaud here! Nothing seems to work - watching with interest!
These are the ones I have
How warm do those silver thingies keep you when you are outside? I don't need gloves when I'm indoors, as a rule. Would they suit me more as liners for other gloves, do you think?
Started thinking about socks as well. The last few years I've been wearing boots by La Canadienne. Unavailable in the UK, so I get some delivered to DH's hotel when he's in North America on business. Thy are about the only things that keep my feet both warm and completely dry.

Back-To-School Food Safety Tips for Parents
Aug 20 2014 - 04:05:00 pm
The United States Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service reminds you that children are at high risk of contracting foodborne illness because their immune systems are still developing. In fact, children under the age of five have the highest incidence of Campylobacter, E. coli, and Salmonella infection among any other age group in the United States.
This highlights the importance of following the USDA's four food safety steps whenever preparing meals:
Clean, Separate, Cook and Chill
. FSIS has developed a food safety "science experiment" that parents and children can carry out together to make sure school lunches are safe to eat come lunchtime.

Mayor Isbell raises minimum starting pay for employees, recognizes their efforts
Aug 04 2014 - 12:06:00 pm
Pasadena Mayor Johnny Isbell is raising the minimum starting hourly rate to $12.50 per hour for full-time employees of the City of Pasadena. The new hourly rate is more than 70 percent higher than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
"Our employees work hard to serve our community and the residents who live here, and I think that shows in the quality of projects and services the city provides," Isbell said. "I want to make sure we reward those employees and recognize their contributions."
The adjustment will bring all current full-time employees who earn less than $12.50 per hour up to that minimum by the beginning of fiscal year 2015.

Welcome to Providence Village Baptist Church!
Grace and Peace to you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
The Abstract of Principles, an early summary of Southern Baptist beliefs, in its article on "Providence" states that "
God from eternity, decrees or permits all things that come to pass, and perpetually upholds, directs and governs all creatures and all events . . .
" At Providence Village Baptist Church we believe that Providence is more than the name of our community and church; rather God, by His amazing grace, has decreed, directed, and governed us to be joined together as His flock "for such a time as this." We invite you also to join with us as we seek to honor Him by proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ in North Central Florida and to the uttermost parts of the earth. Enjoy our site, but more importantly come worship with us in the near future.
Created For God's Glory, Living By God's Grace
"Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen"
