Human Polyclonal ARFGAP3 Primary Antibody for WB - ABIN658438 : Weimer, Beck, Eckert, Reckmann, Moelleken, Brügger, Wieland: Differential roles of ArfGAP1, ArfGAP2, and ArfGAP3 in COPI trafficking. in The Journal of cell biology 2008 (PubMed)
Cow (Bovine) Polyclonal ARFGAP3 Primary Antibody for WB - ABIN374129 : Liu, Zhang, Xing, Chen, He: Functional characterization of novel human ARFGAP3. in FEBS letters 2001 (PubMed)
We suggest a model in which ArfGAP3 regulates Golgi association of GGA clathrin adaptors.
our results suggest that ARFGAP3 is a novel androgen-regulated gene that can promote prostate cancer cell proliferation and migration in collaboration with paxillin (show PXN Antibodies).
human ARFGAP2 and ARFGAP3 are associated with COP-I-coated vesicles and function in COP I traffic
Differential roles of ArfGAP1, ArfGAP2 (show arfgap2 Antibodies), and ArfGAP3 in COPI trafficking
ArfGAP1, ArfGAP2 (show arfgap2 Antibodies), and ArfGAP3 have overlapping roles in regulating COPI function in Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport.
ArfGAP3 interacts with RIBEYE (show CTBP2 Antibodies) in an NAD(H)-dependent manner.
The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) that associates with the Golgi apparatus and regulates the early secretory pathway of proteins. The encoded protein promotes hydrolysis of ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1)-bound GTP, which is required for the dissociation of coat proteins from Golgi-derived membranes and vesicles. Dissociation of the coat proteins is a prerequisite for the fusion of these vesicles with target compartments. The activity of this protein is sensitive to phospholipids. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. This gene was originally known as ARFGAP1, but that is now the name of a related but different gene.

It doesn't take long for any political leader to realise the importance of the moneymen and women bankrolling the party.
Keeping them happy enough to carry on parting with their cash but without letting them dictate policy is one of the trickiest problems a leader faces. At the moment donations to the Conservative and Labour parties are running almost neck-and-neck, respectively receiving £3,663,024 and £3,681,486 in the first three months of the year.
Conservative donors tend to be strongly Eurosceptic and hostile to the concept of equal marriage and some are known to be flirting with switching support to Ukip. Lord Ashcroft, who has given the Tories £10m, recently cut off the flow of money – reportedly out of disillusionment with "fringe issues" such as same-sex marriage and over the party's electoral prospects.
About one-quarter of Labour's cash comes from union contributions, leaving Ed Miliband with the problem of reassuring left-wing leaders like Len McCluskey of Unite that he is championing their priorities.
On the other hand, if he tacked rightwards he might be able to tempt Lord Sainsbury, who gave the party £18.5m when Tony Blair was leader, to reopen his wallet.
Or perhaps he would still be wasting his time. In an interview the multimillionaire peer said he wished he was disappointed David Miliband failed to win the leadership in 2010 – and had not changed his mind.

I always get anxious and worried whenever there are post tests and skills demonstration in every lecture. Who doesn't want to get high scores, right? I took ECG & Pharmacology, PALS and ACLS in this training center (Midtown). With all those three classes, I had the best instructor ever Nemo! Rhythm interpretations, different algorithms, appropriate medications and interventions given to stable & unstable patients. Clear explanation of why certain drugs are indicated for this type of rhythm, the proper use of synchronized cardioversion & TCP and we get to role play in situations of Cardiac arrest. And most of all he makes the class alive by putting a little pinch of humor, to keep are bloods pumping and like he always said, keep the class stress free.
Classes are affordable and it's worth every dollar. I highly recommend this training center.

Although you can ask your GP for a referral to an NHS clinic that will perform a blood test, it can take time. First you need to make an appointment with your GP, get a referral note, then go to the clinic to give a blood sample, then wait for the results. If you want a more speedy service, and a user-friendly summary of your results, it's worth using a private blood test clinic.
In the meantime, ask your GP for a blood test, and make sure you specifically ask that it includes a cholesterol test. Also ask for a printout of your results when they arrive. Then ask your GP if the blood test results indicate a need for any nutrition or lifestyle changes. You need to be proactive and ensure you get all the information you need, and then make sure the results are explained to you.

Blood test results may indicate that you need to eat more of certain foods, or less of certain foods, particularly if you're deficient in any vitamins and minerals. The results might also reveal some underlying health problem that requires further investigation or medication.
Your cholesterol test should give an overall cholesterol reading - which should be under 5 for good health. If it's over 5, ask your GP for advice. Generally, if you have high cholesterol, you should reduce the amount of saturated fats in your diet. Cut down on red meat, cheese, cream, coconut oil (coconut oil is very high in saturated fat - vegetarians beware!). The blood test result should also show a breakdown of your HDL levels (the 'good cholesterol') which should be over 1 for good health, and your LDL cholsterol levels (the 'bad cholesterol') which should be under 3 for good health.
A compehensive blood test will provide a 'blood count'. This will indicate levels of haemoglobin (which enables oxygen to be carried by the red blood cells, from the lungs to all the cells of your body), platelets (which help your blood to clot if you cut yourself), and levels of red blood cells and white blood cells. You should also indicate the health of your thyroid function, your liver function, and your kidney function (also known as 'renal function').
If you have painful joints, or if you are a heavy drinker, ask your GP to ensure that your blood test also tests for uric acid levels (gout test). Gout is a painful condition where uric acid crystals (which develop from purins in red meat and alcohol) accumulate around the joints. Gout can also be caused by excessive consumption of fruit juice, so go easy on fruit juice (I recommend no more than one glass a day, watered down half juice half water). If uric acid levels are high, uric acid crystals can also form in the kidneys, and lead to kidney stones. If the blood test reveals high levels of uric acid in your blood, they will be able to advise you on the best course of action. This advice is likely to include a recommendation to cut down on red meat (and processed meat products) and alcohol!

2nd August 2010; By KnucklesSonic8
It was encouraging to hear that Virtual Toys would be taking note of what the fans had to say about DLC possibilities. I'm really hoping that the team follows through, and soon. So to give them some ideas, the following is a series of suggestions of potential add-ons I'd like to see added to the in-game Shop. And whether you agree with my thoughts or not, if you've given this great a game a try, I encourage you to express yourself on what you'd like to see too.
So the first set comes in the form of new modes. It would be interesting to see some new modes that differ from the standard gameplay. Here are some of the ideas I came up with:
Players accumulate points for keeping the ball in their possession. Players are confined to a time limit and whoever earns the most points by the end is pronounced the winner. I'm sure the team can come up with a better name for it too.
Classic Mode
I personally would miss the presence of items, but for those who would like the ability to play a standard pick-up game, this might be nice to have.
Mission / Story Mode
This would be a nice option for those who have beaten Tournament Mode on Hard with all teams. Essentially, it would delve more into the roots of HoopWorld where each team is fighting to uncover the secrets of the ancient temples and such. Naturally, this would mean new courts and perhaps even some cutscenes, but there's a variety of ways this can be approached. If this isn't doable, a mission mode of sorts would be great, where you need to complete certain objectives such as catching up from an early lead given to the CPU, or playing a 1-on-1 game.
Co-op Mode
How about having a special option where two people can play on the same team in a Tournament? If this works out, then 4-player multiplayer might also be something to consider.
Online Service
I wouldn't mind paying 100 or 200 Wii Points more if it meant that we had the ability to play online. I don't imagine this would be easy to execute (and I'm not even sure if this is possible), but it would still be a really valuable addition.
Next up is a list of ideas in the form of new stadiums, teams, and other things of a similar nature.
New Costumes / Teams
This kind of goes without saying, but new costumes for the teams might be nice to have if they were included in an expansion pack with other goodies.
Mii Support
Perhaps there could be a special team that you can customize to bring your Mii into the game, even with multiple costumes.
If a Mission Mode isn't doable, having a series of special tasks that players can perform would add replayability. Rewarding players for winning a Sudden Death match, for example.
New Themed Courts
The Nalaks look alien in appearance (more specifically, their hidden counterparts), which would be a perfect fit for an out-of-this-world, space-themed court. Or even better, a stage that's based off of Spaceball: Revolution. I'm not sure why but I can see an underwater level working well as well, where play occurs in an underwater base that's enclosed from the surrounding waters. It might even be humorous to have a court based off of a real-life basketball stadium.
Special Courts
I would especially love to see wacky courts where things are happening during the game to increase the level of intensity. So for example, continuing with my last suggestion, you could have spaceballs coming in on random occasions, trying to hit digital panels in the background. And anyone that gets in its way would be stunned. That's just one idea I had in my head, but I'm sure the team could come up with unique courts where the environment plays a role in gameplay.
More Music
I loved the catchy funk-filled music they included, and I would love to hear more songs. Maybe they can even add the ability to choose a song before gameplay begins to adjust their gameplay experience.
Out of all these, seeing online play would be the most pleasing to me. It's a stretch, but I get excited just thinking about it. Hopefully, these other modest suggestions will give the team an idea of what kinds of things they might like to include. I look forward to seeing what kinds of DLC the developers end up adding to the Shop. So long as it doesn't end up like Spaceball: Revolution's promised add-on's, I'll be really happy.

One reason we might consider a new container first is that it might simplify the block design. One thread that is still active talks about how to expose classes to other blocks. This requirement might go away completely if blocks can access java in other blocks only through the avalon container, and we decide that any java code the block wants to provide must be packaged using a standard format. The risk is that the container upgrade is very complex and time consuming, causing all the good ideas about blocks to be put on hold. Of course ultimately the people doing the work will make the decision :) -- Ryan Hoegg | |

James Overton Broadhead
missouri louis convention law
James Overton Broadhead was born May 29, 1819, in Charlottesville, Virginia. He attended the University of Virginia from 1835 to 1836, studied law in St. Louis, Missouri, and received his license and established his law practice in Bowling Green, Missouri, in 1842.
In 1845, Broadhead began his political career as a member of the Missouri Constitutional Convention. In the following year he participated in the Missouri House of Representatives, and in 1850 became a member of the Missouri Senate, serving until 1853.
Broadhead returned to the PRACTICE OF LAW, becoming a partner in a St. Louis firm in 1859.
During the pre-Civil War era, Broadhead participated in activities that opposed the Southern cause. He was instrumental in the formation of the Committee of Safety, which restricted the influence of pro-Southern factions in St. Louis, and in 1861 was a member of the Missouri Constitutional Convention, which declared the loyalty of Missouri to the Union.
In 1875, Broadhead attended the Missouri State Constitutional Convention, and in 1876, he gained prominence as government counsel for the Whiskey Ring cases, which involved BRIBERY and dishonesty in the collection of exorbitant liquor taxes.
From 1883 to 1885, Broadhead represented Missouri in the United States House of Representatives, and was a member of the Judiciary Committee. During his later years, he served abroad, acting first as special commissioner to France in 1885, and later as minister to Switzerland for a two-year period.
Broadhead died August 7, 1898, in St. Louis.

A Facebook status update that made us chuckle. Thank you!
I like the post. I am an American who has been in Canada probably about 30 times, most everyone of them that I have had any contact with have been very nice friendly people. Canada is also much cleaner, it seems that they know better than to trash where they live.
Hey 🙂 How are you doing?
*LOL* Well I am a Canadian who lives in the US and yes, that sure sounds like home to me! 🙂 🙂 🙂

RENTON, Wash. -- The Seahawks are a 2 1/2-point underdog Sunday at San Francisco, the first time this season Seattle hasn't been favored.
However, statistically speaking, the 11-1 Seahawks are better than the 8-4 49ers in most categories, as the table shows:
A few other tidbits entering Sunday's game:
Over the last four games, the Seahawks have the best third-down conversion percentage in the NFL at 53.8 percent.
Seattle also has the best points differential in the league at 154 points. The 49ers are fourth at 100 points.
The Seahawks believe in spreading the wealth on offense. Seattle has four players with four TD receptions each -- receivers Golden Tate, Doug Baldwin and Jermaine Kearse and tight end Zach Miller.
The 49ers have two receivers that account for all 15 of their TD receptions -- 10 for tight end Vernon Davis and five for receiver Anquan Boldin, but receiver Michael Crabtree missed the first 11 games of the season.

Curvy 36 Year Old Mother of Three SmartLipo Journey. Scottsdale, AZ
The staff at Sonobello are totally amazing. they were all warm and inviting as I was very nervous the day of. They said things to make me smile and laugh and make me feel calm. I would recommend them to anybody just because of how hospitable they were and how they showed they cared. I even got telephone calls that evening and the next day after my surgery.

You don't buy Ariel for the packaging; you buy it for the amazing clean and quality. That doesn't change the importance of the package, though. Not just designed to hold the detergent, Ariel's packaging serves many roles.
Packaging plays a key role in protecting the Ariel detergent inside. Therefore, it is crucial to continue our journey to deliver more sustainable packaging that can help to protect the environment.
The labels on the packaging also provide important ingredients lists, safety information and dosing instructions.
The 5 Rs
At Ariel, we're committed to using the most efficient packaging possible, not only for our consumers, but also for the environment. So when we design new Ariel environment packaging, we use the 5 Rs: Remove, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover every step of the way.
This means that we use less material than before for our products ('reduce'), use recycled materials in production ('recycle'), recover and re-use old packaging, remove by switching to using alternative resources or by limiting the use of certain materials.
As such, we're currently switching manufacture of Ariel Gel bottles to a new process requiring 20% less resin.
Sustainability is key
Ariel places a lot of importance on sustainability, and packaging is one important element here.
We're committed to packaging that not only uses less material, but also is compatible with waste management systems. Ariel washing means less waste and therefore less impact on the environment.
More than 90% of our packaging is already recyclable, and we are constantly looking for solutions to make the rest recyclable, too.
As such, our packaging teams are continuously looking for ways to cut waste, package size and weight, while providing you with better Ariel compaction and experience.

Great find and they look fabulous now!
I must say I'm totally loving your 'I've got fans necklets' so simple but so affective!! Genius even!
My kitchen is a little far off, lots to do before then, can't wait though. Hope your plans are coming along and I'm glad to hear you think I should print my designs onto fabric, I'm trying to source fabric at the moment, so hopefully soon. - March 29, 2009 at 6:07 PM

MYOT encodes a cystoskeletal protein which plays a significant role in the stability of thin filaments during muscle contraction. Additionally we are shipping Myotilin Antibodies (59) and Myotilin Kits (2) and many more products for this protein.

Genetic association studies show that different TTID genotypes were significantly associated with carcass traits, including skin percentage, loin eye area and average skin thickness.
Sequence analysis and polymorphism identification in the TTID gene associated with meat quyality traits in Sus scrofa.
Describe the first homozygous mutation in the myotilin gene leading to a novel, autosomal recessive subtype of myofibrillar myopathy (MFM).
Analysis of myotilin turnover provides mechanistic insight into the role of myotilinopathy-causing mutations
A second known pedigree with LGMD1A: this finding constitutes a gold standard of proof that mutations in the myotilin gene cause Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 1A
Myotilin a thin filament-associated Z-disc protein.It binds to alpha-actinin and filamin c and is mutated in limb girdle muscular dystrophy 1A (LGMD1A).myotilin binds F-actin and prevents filament disassembly induced by Latrunculin A
Mutations in myotilin cause MFM; exon 2 of MYOT is a hotspot for mutations; peripheral neuropathy, cardiomyopathy, and distal weakness greater than proximal weakness are part of the spectrum of myotilinopathy; not all cases have a limb-girdle phenotype
Our findings provide evidence for a novel connection between the Z-disc protein myotilin and the sarcolemma via filamins and beta1 integrins.
The function of the myotilin protein is studied with regards its actin-organizing properties.
A novel mutation in the myotilin gene results in the clinical and pathologic phenotype termed "spheroid body myopathy." Mutations in this gene also cause limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 1A and are associated with myofibrillar myopathy.
Mutations within the MYOT gene are not a cause for Vocal Cord and Pharyngeal Weakness with Distal Myopathy (VCPDM (show MATR3 Proteins)).
multigenerational French family in which gene sequencing identified a S60F myotilin mutation in all patients with full penetrance despite very late onset
Myotilin does not have a significant influence on muscle mass, muscle fiber size, or regulation of muscle contraction. Alternatively, compensatory over-expressions of other elements may compensate for the lack of myotilin.
features suggest an important role for myotilin in sarcomere organization.
either myotilin does not participate in muscle development and basal function maintenance or other proteins serve as structural and functional compensatory molecules when myotilin is absent
In single-transgenic mutant mice, double-transgenic mice overexpressing myotilin showed more severe muscle degeneration, enhanced myofibrillar aggregation, and earlier onset of aggregation.
This gene encodes a cystoskeletal protein which plays a significant role in the stability of thin filaments during muscle contraction. This protein binds F-actin, crosslinks actin filaments, and prevents latrunculin A-induced filament disassembly. Mutations in this gene have been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and myofibrillar myopathies. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined.

The hotel is located directly across the street from the King of Prussia mall. The lobby was very welcoming and the personnel working the front desks were very friendly. The room was spacious, the shower was immaculate (open bay concept with glass wall...no curtains/doors. Nice shower head.). The bathroom was like something from HGTV...regular size, yet great design.

The deployment of the 10 planes to Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni on Honshu Island marks a major milestone for the F-35, which has been bedeviled by technical glitches and soaring cost overruns.
With a current development and acquisition price tag already at $379 billion for a total of 2,443 F-35 aircraft, Lockheed Martin's F-35 is the most expensive plane in history, and costs are set to go higher still.
The Marines's version of the plane, known as the F-35B, is capable of conducting short takeoffs and vertical landings.
Trump last month sent shockwaves through the aerospace industry when he tweeted that he wanted rival Boeing to price out a possible alternative.
"Based on the tremendous cost and cost overruns of the Lockheed Martin F-35, I have asked Boeing to price-out a comparable F-18 Super Hornet!" Trump tweeted December 22.
The F/A-18 Super Hornet does not have stealth capabilities and has been in use since the late 1990s.
Once servicing, maintenance and other costs for the F-35 are factored in over the aircraft's lifespan through 2070, overall program costs have been projected to rise to as much as $1.5 trillion.
Proponents of the F-35 tout its speed, close air-support capabilities, airborne agility and a massive array of sensors giving pilots unparalleled access to information.
"The unique combination of stealth, cutting-edge radar and sensor technology, and electronic warfare systems bring all of the access and lethality capabilities of a fifth-generation fighter, a modern bomber, and an adverse-weather, all-threat environment air-support platform," the Marines said in a statement.
In August, the US Air Force declared an initial squadron of F-35A stealth fighters ready for combat and said an overseas deployment for that version of the plane was likely early this year.
The US Navy's version of the plane, the F-35C, is built to land on aircraft carriers.

"Do you want hushpuppies people will actually like, or do you just want something to push other food around with?" – Bill McClellan.
The quote above came from May of 2010 at a Mexico Beach family reunion. My three oldest brothers were cooking fish downstairs, while Bill was upstairs making the batter. I was the intermediary – sort of an insult courier service – carrying caustic messages back and forth. At issue was the fact that Bill seemed to be taking longer than the standard two minutes to get the hushpuppy batter ready.
"Go ask Bill if he's grinding the corn or what," one of them said. "In case he forgot, tell him it's meal, flour and water."
After dinner though, it was Bill who had the last laugh. None of them were left.
* * *
Hushpuppies really are underrated. They can be as simple to make as adding water to cornmeal and then deep-frying, if you only care about volume. Or, they can be elaborate and exotic, like the kind served in trendy restaurants, if you care more about presentation. Or, they can be – as in the case of Bill's – just plain good to eat.
What follows is Bill's recipe that converted me from the hushpuppies-as-filler camp. Keep in mind that this isn't carved into stone. In fact, Bill never measures anything, so consider this more of a general guide than a recipe per se.
Corn meal (plain, white, fine ground)
Self-rising flour
Whole kernel canned corn
Finely diced onion
Finely diced bell pepper
Seasoning salt or Cajun seasoning
Begin with a mixture of 2/3 meal and 1/3 flour
Add in onions, pepper and corn (including liquid from the can)
Mix in salt and pepper to taste (err toward less)
Pour hot water into this mixture until it is just thin enough that it will drip off of a spoon. (The hot water activates the self-rising flour.)
Refrigerate the batter for 10 minutes or so, until it thickens. At this point, it should hold its shape and fall off the spoon rather than drip.
Heat oil to about 350 degrees and drop serving spoon size balls into the oil.
Fry until golden brown.
This last part is important: As soon as you take the hushpuppies out of the oil, dust them with the seasoning salt or Cajun seasoning.
Don't count on leftovers.

Dutchman's Breeches is a native perennial herbaceous plant, growing from 4 to 12 inches high to the top of the erect flower stalks.
Leaves are basal, yellow-green to grayish-green above, grayish-green under, smooth, and pinnately divided several times, on long stalks, which are round, and green to pale reddish-brown in color. The leaflet tip has an abrupt sharp point.
The inflorescence is an erect raceme, held above the leaves, (actually, a scape - the above ground flowering stem rising from the root) that has 3 to 14 stalked nodding flowers, which droop away from the stalk as the scape bends slightly over.
The flowers have pale red to yellowish stalks, white with yellow or pinkish tinged corollas about 3/4 inches long. There are two outer large petals that form the upward pointing legs of the "breeches" and show some yellow to pink at their tops (the lower part of the upside down flower). The tips of the outer petals are spurred which extend backward. The spur is heart to triangular shaped. There are two inner petals that are much smaller and show a small crest (or wings) at their tips. These inner petals surround the sexual parts. All four petals are joined at the base. Each flower has a pair of small linear bracts at the base of the flower stalk. The filaments of the six stamens, which are inside the corolla, are united around the pistil until just below where the anthers form. The calyx of the flower has two pair of sepals, one minute set in white, the other pair larger with a pinkish midvein. Flowers are scentless.
Seed: Fertile flowers produce a dry ovoid capsule, tapered at both ends, which contains small kidney shaped seeds that have some oily appendages. Seeds are difficult to start as they must have a warm moist period followed by a cold moist period, each of 60 to 90 days.
Habitat: Dutchman's Breeches grows from short underground rhizomes that sport many white tear-shaped bulblets. While not a true spring ephemeral, it grows best in dappled sunlight in rich soils with wet-mesic to mesic moisture conditions. Under a tall tree canopy, woodland edges or protected areas of ravines are good spots. Eloise Butler's notes on the plant are given below.
Names: The genus Dicentra is from the Greek words 'dis' for 'twice' and 'kentron' for 'spur' referring to the two spurs of the outer petals. The species, cucullaria, means 'hood-like' which refers to the sides of the two spurs which curve inward to resemble a hood. The author name for the plant classification - 'Bernh.' is for Johann Jakob Bernhardi (1774-1850) German botanist, Professor of Botany, director of the Botanical Garden at Erfurt. His herbarium collection is now in the Missouri Botanical Garden Herbarium. His work amended the original work of '(L.)' which refers to Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778), Swedish botanist and the developer of the binomial nomenclature of modern taxonomy.
Comparisons: The only other species of Dicentra found in Minnesota is D. canadensis, Squirrel-corn and that is currently on the state "Special Concern List". D. cucullaria is similar to Squirrel Corn. The differences being that in Squirrel-corn the below ground bulblets are yellow and pea shaped, rather than white and tear shaped; also the flowers have scent and the petal spurs are rounded and are also shorter than Dicentra cucullaria. Another more familiar relative is the non-native landscape plant, Bleeding-heart, D. spectabilis, with its pink flowers.
Above: The flowers are held at the top of an erect leafless scape. Note the small bracts at the base of the flower stalk and the two pair of sepals at the base of the flower. One minute pair is slightly separated on the flower stalk from the second pair which is larger and overlaps the two large petals and has a delicate light pink midvein. (The base is the upper part with the stalk, as the flower nods and the distal part is pointing downward.)
Below: The inner petals which house the reproductive parts have a small wing at the base.
Below: The leaves are pinnately divided several times, smooth on both upper (right photo) and lower (left photo) surfaces. Each small lobe of a leaflet ends in a small point as can be seen in the left photo. This point is an extension of the midvein.
Below: A flower group approaching the end of bloom. Flower stalks are usually reddish-brown at maturity.
Eloise Butler's records show that she obtained Dutchman's Breeches for the Garden on May 25, 1907 from the "govt' reservation" at Minnehaha (presumably the area near Fort Snelling and the Bureau of Mines.) and then again in 1908 from the same location. More were planted in 1910, '12, '13 and '14. Martha Crone planted the species in 15 separate years between 1934 and 1957. The plant was on Martha Crone's 1951 inventory of plants in the Garden at that time and has been replanted a number of times since, most recently in 2009 by Curator Susan Wilkins and in 2016 near the Shelter. Native to most of Minnesota except the NW and Canadian border area. In North America Dutchman's Breeches is found in the eastern half of the continent from Manitoba and the farming states of the central U.S. eastward and also the Pacific northwest of the U.S.
Toxicity: Dutchman's Breeches produces about 35 alkaloids, several of which can be harmful if ingested and it can cause dermatitis in sensitive people. The drug complex Corydalis has several of the alkaloids from the Dicentra bulblets. This complex has been used to treat skin diseases.
Eloise Butler wrote of this plant: "Everyone is familiar with the pretty pale pink or yellowish flowers arranged along a slender stalk. The divergent nectaries of the flower have given rise to the ludicrous common name. The single pale green leaf, finely divided into many segments, adds to the delicate beauty of the plant. On Big Island, Lake Minnetonka, protected from marauders by an un-climbable barbed wire fence, grows another member of the same genus, the squirrel corn (Dicentra canadensis), similar to Dutchman's breeches except that the flowers are usually white and shaped like those of another relative, the bleeding heart of the gardens. The squirrel corn is developed from subterranean tubers, round and yellow like grains of Indian corn."(Published in the Sunday Minneapolis Tribune May 7, 1911.)

SUSE 9.3 install failed on ASUS motherboard
I am new to linux installation. I tried to install the SUSE linux9.3 on my new PC with ASUS p5VDCMX mother board. The initial sysmtoms like unable to recognise the CD_ROM came through & I loaded the ide-generic module. It went ahead with the installation. I performed the steps recommended in the below url http://www.cse.iitb.ac.in/~mohitz/tech/suse.php. I added the ide-generic & did mkinitrd with no parameters. I do not know what exactly the parameters that I have to pass. I gave the path to mkinitrd as /. The mkinitrd went through fine. But after this when I rebooted linux it just failed to come up. It is unable to recognise the root file system which I had given it during the installation. Any help in this regard would be great.

Have u updated the grub configuration file with the new initrd file.
mkinitrd will create a new initrd file which contains the driver for your hard disks.

Hello Rajesh,
Can you kindly elobrate the procedure to update the grub & configuring with the mkinitrd command. Or can you suggest me a better version of linux which can overcome the mother board problem. I tried to flash ubuntu 6.01.1, but it does not recognise the root file system.

I don't think it will work as i'm facing same problem with an ASUS A7V8X which uses VIA Chipset VT8377 and VT8235 Southbridge PCI to ISA Bridge.
I can't install anything more recent that SUSE 9.1 since it's a bug in the kernel.The VIA82cxxx bug.
I've read several situations like this but i'm a bit desperate since i have no idea how to solve it. And i wouldn't like to buy a new PC just to use linux.
Is there any way to contact the guys responsible for the kernel and ask them to fix this issue?

I don't follow your logic here. If there's a bug in the kernel, wouldn't using a newer version have more of a chance of working, since the bug could have been fixed in newer versions?
I've not had any issues with my ASUS K8V-X, which (if I remember correctly) uses a similar VIA chipset. I'm able to install the latest openSuSE 10.2 on it. How many newer distributions have you tried?Registered Linux user #270181

I have tried a lot of distros: Suse 10.2, Ubunto 6.10, Kubunto 6.10, Ubunto 7, Mandriva One, Kurumin, Debian 4, Fedora Core 6, Caixa Mágica 11.
I don't know if one can call it a bug in the real term since the VIAARENA site reports the missing information about recent chipsets in the drivers files of the kernel.
Check the Kernel patch they advise
There are lots Linux distributions in the world nowadays. Many of them do not support newer VIA South Cridge chips, such as VT8237A, VT8251, and CX700/M. Unsupported South Bridge chips might cause the system not to boot or to only run in PIO mode. This is because the kernel does not recognize the IDE controllers. This document describes how to manually patch the kernel source to enable DMA mode in VIAs South Bridge chips.
Suse 10.2 hangs after displaying the message about the drivers: VIA82cxxx
Other distro like Ubunto (and related) can't detect the CD drive when loading the hardware drivers.
But hey, i'm a complete noob as far as Linux is concerned
