Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery Presents
Monica Rodriguez, We Are America, 2011
S/Election addresses issues around citizenship that have been increasingly prominent leading up to the 45th presidential election. The constructs of citizenship are constantly shifting, especially in conversation with politically pressing issues such as voting rights, immigration reform, education reform, identity politics, and criminal justice. S/Election responds to various inquiries around citizenship such as, what does it mean to be an active citizen or exercise your rights, what does the status of "citizen" imply to those that are disenfranchised, displaced, immigrants, or refugees, and how does identity play into the privileges and/or duties of citizenship.

Geographies of Displacement will bring together five anti-gentrification groups across East and South Los Angeles: Crenshaw Subway Coalition, Defend Boyle Heights, North East Los Angeles Alliance, L.A. Tenants Union, and Uplifting Inglewood. In this discussion, groups will share their organizing work, contextualize the specific ways in which gentrification is taking place in their neighborhoods, and address how the role of the culture industry opens communities to speculative real estate practices. They will also deliberate how practices of solidarity can develop into a city-wide movement against unjust displacement

Citizenship is broadly defined as being obligated to obey the laws and duties assigned by one's government in exchange for legal rights and privileges granted by that government. But we can also say that citizenship is more than a legal designation. It is also a cultural ideal. It is infused with moral meaning, and trades in principles, values, and expectations that derive from cultural, social and historical perspectives. In this workshop, we will explore the meaning of citizenship as it relates to issues of cultural identity. Here you will be free and encouraged to write about what it means to be a citizen in a nation where there are strict divides between economic privilege and poverty, immigration and law enforcement, even free speech and the restriction of open discourse. How does language and identity play into the notion of citizenship? The only requirement for this workshop is an open mind, the courage to speak your truth and a willing heart.

Play: Open Call 2016
Play: Open Call 2016
A thematic community-based biennial featuring work by 300 artists
On view from August 18 to September 18, 2016
Opening Reception August 14 from 2 to 5pm
The reception will feature an award ceremony honoring best in show ($250), second place ($100), third place ($50), and three honorable mentions ($30) selected by former LAMAG curator Scott Canty.
Having begun as the "All City Outdoor Festival" in 1950, Open Call has evolved into one of LA's premier exhibitions for emerging artists and students to exhibit their artwork and achieve recognition through cash prizes. In 2014, nearly 400 artists lined up to deliver their artwork to the Gallery and this year's biannual Open Call followed a different format with artists encouraged to freely interpret the notion of play. Only works that spoke to the theme were accepted and the mediums included sculpture, paintings, and photography.
This year's juror is Scott Canty, who recently retired after 30 years with DCA's Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery. Canty began his time at LAMAG as a young curator developing exhibitions, education programs, special events, and, most notably, innovative initiatives including the City of Los Angeles (C.O.L.A.) Individual Artists Fellowship program.

The election of President Obama in 2008 and re-election in 2012 marked the emergence of a new period in race relations and identity politics in the United States. One in which significant advancements underscore deeper, more persistent ruptures in the skin that binds us as Americans. President Obama, from a multiracial family, represented the most potent and singular figure for the progress made by the civil rights movement, multiculturalism, and identity politics from the previous decades. Some even argued that his election marked the moment of post-racism in the country's history. And yet, since election, numerous racialized incidents have occurred that tell a different story. The exhibition SKIN brings thirty-six artists whose work is timely and engaged in many ways with these broader debates. The gallery acts as a discursive space where these disparate conversations can have a platform, and where further productive work and reflection on these topics can proceed.

The Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery and Juxtapoz magazine are pleased to present new works by Robert Williams in SLANG Aesthetics! in conjunction with 20 Years Under the Influence of Juxtapoz, a group exhibition by guest curators Andrew Hosner of Thinkspace Gallery and Gary Pressman of Copro Gallery. Both exhibitions will be on view at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery from February 22ndto April 19th, 2015. These two exhibitions commemorate the 20th anniversary ofJuxtapoz magazine, founded by Williams in 1994, and it's vast influence on several generations of artists.
Robert Williams is widely upheld as the godfather of the low brow and pop surrealist art movements, and with as much frequency denigrated as an irreverent iconoclast among the arbiters of "high" art. As both patriarch and outlaw, Williams' enduring influence on the New Contemporary movement is undeniable. A true maverick who sought to create vital work that channeled the shifting energies and immediacy of counterculture, from the 60's onward, Williams' paintings invoked a return to craftsmanship, figuration and demotic imagery that rejected the elitist tenets of conceptual minimalism. In 1994 Williams founded Juxtapoz Art & Culture Magazine and created a platform for this young and insurgent energy on the West Coast; a publication that was dedicated to the underground and to its cultural mutineers. Williams, a self described Conceptual Realist, continues to create artworks that elicit a response and offer an opinion. Relying on concrete, and relatable, imagery to invoke ideas and concepts, rather than on the non-comital spasms of abstraction, his work continues to cut, seethe, confront and move. Not for the faint of heart, Williams speaks an unruly truth that captures the dark, the beautiful and the appalling tenor of our modern world.SLANG! Aesthetics is Robert Williams' first major body of work to debut in Los Angeles in well over a decade, and will feature 25 new oil paintings by the artist alongside a suite of drawings, and a series of large-scale sculptures fabricated with the assistance of Gentle Giant Studios.
In conjunction with Williams' new exhibition of work, 20 Years Under the Influence of Juxtapoz celebrates the publication's 20th anniversary. What once began as an alternative magazine, Juxtapoz is now the most widely disseminated art publication in the world. Predicated on the rejection of the artificial boundaries that consecrated "high", Juxtapoz effectively broke down walls to allow young artists a chance at their own history. It is also an ideal that attests to the power of making accessible art about shared cultural experiences, identities and aesthetics. The magazine has helped to define and bring to light one of the most exciting art movements of our time, an incipient movement in 1994 that has now, finally 20 years later, begun to infiltrate the mainstream art markets and institutions from which it had once been excluded. It is also a movement with a massive fan following that attests to the power, and relevance, of making accessible art about shared cultural experiences, identities and aesthetics. The artists featured in this exhibition have been chosen based for their impact on the movement, and on how they themselves have been motivated by such an abundance of inspiration. With access to this imagery and community, new and multifaceted generations of artists continue to emerge from the ranks. Avenues made possible byJuxtapoz, through its wide variety of featured media and expressions, have shaped this aesthetic and preserves its trajectory as far as the imagination will allow.
This exhibition is sponsored in part by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs and the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery. The LAMAG is located within the beautiful Barnsdall Park at 4800 Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, California.

"It is now 1985 and much of the action is set in the Russian River area north of San Francisco. Here, successful businessmen from around the globe gather at Bohemian Grove for a three-week encampment of male bonding, while downriver from them events at Wimminwood, a lesbian music and arts festival, threaten the relationship of DeDe Halcyon-Day and D'orothea Wilson. Returning characters include Mary Ann Singleton, who is having difficulty balancing her commitment to her career as a local talk show hostess with her obligations as a wife to Brian and mother to Shawna, the child of her friend Connie, who entrusted the girl's care to Mary Ann on her deathbed; Michael Tolliver, the romantic gay man who has tested HIV-positive and is taking AZT to combat the threat to his immune system; and Anna Madrigal, the transgendered landlady who mothers her tenants at 28 Barbary Lane on Russian Hill and is fighting to preserve the historic wooden steps of the lane. New characters include Thack Sweeney, who meets Michael during a tour of Alcatraz and Wren Douglas, a plus-size model whose best-selling self-help book offers hope to overweight women. There is also a focus on a previously minor character, Roger "Booter" Manigault, DeDe's stepfather and a member of the Bohemian Club, who accidentally stumbles into Wimminwood and is held captive by one of its more militant organizers. Brian's college-aged nephew Jed also makes an appearance as a young Reaganite more interested in getting into Harvard Law and making money than having fun."--Wikipedia plot summary, viewed Aug. 11, 2011.

The Gravity Graffiti label is fast establishing itself as an outpost for uncompromisingly strange records, and that's just fine with us. After the wonderful slouching boogie of the Soichi Terada / Whodamanny split 12", this time they've called upon none-stranger Japanese maverick Yoshinori Hayashi to turn out an A side that veers from free jazz esoterics to the best kind of mutant rave throwback imaginable. On the flip side DB.Source gets into a delightful tropical melee on "Anapo" before "Ciane (GG Records Trance Mix)" sends the release off into an exotic wilderness. This is the kind of record you wouldn't be able to imagine before you heard it, making it a perfect addition to the Gravity Graffiti canon.

N.C. deck collapse in Atlantic shore community injures over 20
N.C. deck collapse results in numerous injuries. The N.C. deck collapse occurred at a private residence that was rented.
Ocean Isle Beach, N.C. — More than 20 people were taken to hospitals after a second-story deck on a condominium in Ocean isle Beach collapsed onto a patio below.
Brunswick County emergency officials say the deck collapsed about 8:15 p.m. Tuesday.
Emergency services director Anthony Marzano says the injuries included cuts and broken bones but none of the injuries was life-threatening.
Thirteen people were taken to Grand Strand Regional Medical Center in Myrtle Beach, S.C., where 11 were treated and released. Two people were admitted with lower leg injuries.
Seven were taken to Brunswick Novant Medical Center in Supply and one was flown to New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington.
Marzano says about 25 people were on the deck when it collapsed.
An Ocean Isle official said the home is a private residence that was being rented.
Mayor Debbie Smith says she would like to have tougher standards for oceanfront decks. But Smith said local governments are not allowed to have higher standards than the state of North Carolina requires.

Friday, April 8, 2011
Twenty-one years, 20 years, 19 years, five years - the roll-call of employees' time on the job is an impressive one.
Opportunity Connections, a Hood River nonprofit which helps maximize potential for people with disabilities, is an organization with an inspiring vision, an entrepreneurial spirit and successful employees.
To help develop job opportunities for disabled clients, OC has a long history of creative thinking and small business development at its Pine Grove area facility on Thomsen Road.
In order to help the 70-plus adult mid-Columbia residents in its program, OC provides much more than a sheltered work environment.
"We have to have a mindset to look for new ideas and ways of creating work that our clients can succeed at," said Terry Goss, customer service representative for OC's Gorge Security Shred (a secure document destruction service).
Gorge Security Shred is just one of many small business components under the OC umbrella. It also happens to be its fastest growing business.
"We are the only local secure shredding business in the Gorge," said Tom Morgan, director of commercial services, "and we are expanding every month."
The whole GSS business model, like most of what OC does, begins and ends with recycling.
About two years ago, OC received a donation of a used, high-quality industrial-strength document shredder from Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital.
"We then had to develop a business plan and upgrade our facilities to begin the shred business," said Rita Rathkey, OC executive director.
This preparation was accomplished through grants from the Mt. Hood Economic Alliance and the Tri-County Hazardous Waste and Recycling Program.
"We received our first batch of documents in March of last year," said Bob Walter, GSS production manager.
Since then, the client-employees of GSS "have been responsible for shredding and recycling about 50,000 tons of paper," notes Walter.
Once shredded and baled, the paper is sold and delivered to SP Newsprint in Newberg where it is pulped and turned back into useable paper.
Documents arrive in a number of forms. GSS provides some contracted clients with containers for their business sites that are then picked up on a regular basis. Businesses and individuals can also request a one-time pickup, or drop off their document stashes themselves.
"Sometimes people just need to clean out stored paper from their basements, and we do that too," said Morgan.
Once the paper arrives at the GSS facility, employees remove any stray items from the paper and load the shredding machine.
"We already have about a dozen clients certified to work on this project," said Walter.
Certification involves training in confidentiality and safety, along with criminal background checks and drug screens.
The stringent employee certification process follows regulations required by NAID, the certifying body for secure document destruction businesses.
GSS is a member of NAID and follows all of the guidelines and regulations to ensure document information remains confidential throughout the destruction and recycling process, including the use of facility security systems, on-site closed circuit television monitors and secure storage containers.
The cost to shred and recycle runs at about 20 cents per pound (not including pickup fees).
In addition to GSS, OC also operates an e-waste receiving facility (no keyboards or mice) for computer, laptop and television CPUs.
Other small revenue generators include X-ray film recycling (for silver content); fire-starter log production (which compresses old candles and cherry pits into compact blocks); K-pump assembly (custom hand pumps for boats); and the operation of a traditional thrift store in The Dalles (donations of all kinds accepted).
With an additional 4 percent state funding cutback anticipated this fall, on top of this year's 6 percent cut, OC will continue to seek revenue generating opportunities to help sustain successful lives for its clients.
Gorge Security Shred facilities are co-located with OC at 2940 Thomsen Road in Hood River. Documents and/or donations may be brought to the facility during regular business hours. For more information: 541-386-3520.
Upcoming Fundraisers
In addition to seeking new clients for GSS, the OC staff are preparing for two upcoming fundraisers. See below for details:
April 12 - 44th Anniversary Chicken and Spaghetti Dinner for OC - 5:30-7:30 p.m., Elks Lodge, Hood River; adults $10; children $4.50, includes raffle and silent auction. Tickets: Waucoma Bookstore in Hood River and Klindt's Booksellers in The Dalles.
May 15 - Mad Hatter Tea Party at the Columbia Gorge Hotel from 2-4 p.m. Adults and children welcome; call for ticket prices. Purchase at Waucoma and Klindt's boo

Parkdale third graders sing "12 Disaster Days of Christmas"
Welcome to your sing-able Christmas gift list. What follows is an emergency rendition of "12 Days of Christmas" – for outfitting your home or car in case of snow storm, earthquake, flood or other emergency. Read it as a simple list, or sing it to the tune of "12 Days" – you know, as in " … and a partridge in a pear tree…" Not to make light of it, but the song is a familiar framework for a set of gift ideas that you could consider gathering together, even if the recipient already owns items such as a bunch of coats, tire chains and flashlights. Stores throughout the Gorge are stocked up on all these items. Buying all 12 days might be prohibitive, but here are three ideas for checking any of the dozen off your list (notations follow, 1-12.) The gift items needed to stay warm, dry and safe are also coded to suggest items in your abode (A) in your car (C) or both (B). 12 Gallons of Water (A) 11 Family meals (B) 10 Cans of propane (A) 9 Hygiene bags (B) 8 Packs of batteries (A) 7 Spare coats (B) 6 Bright red flares (C) 5 Cozy blankets (B) 4 Tire chains (C) 3 Flashlights (B) 2 cell phone chargers (B) 1 And a crush-proof first aid kit (B) Price ranges? Here's a few quotes for days Three, Two, Four and Nine: n A family gift of flashlights (three will run $15-30, Hood River Supply, Tum-A-Lum) n Cell phone chargers (two will run $30-60) n Tire chains (basic set, $30, Les Schwab, returnable if unused for the winter) n Family meals ($100 or so should cover the basics for three or four reasonably well-fed days) n The home kit should be kept in a handy place near an exit, and remember that water needs to be replenished every few months. If you have a solid first aid kit already, switch out the gift idea with "and-a-sto-o-u-t- tub-for it-all …" Otherwise, it's a case of assembling your home or car kits and making sure all members of the family know what the resources are and how to use them (ie flares and propane). Emergency situations are at worst life-threatening, at best deeply uncomfortable if you and your family are left without power for an extended period, or traveling and find yourself in a situation where you need to wait out a storm, lengthy traffic delay, or other crisis. Notes on the 12 gift ideas: 12 – Gallons of water: that's one per person in a four-member family to last for three days, the recommended minimum to be prepared for utility outages. 11 – Easy-open packaged goods, energy bars, dried food and nuts are good things to include for nutrition. Think of what your family of four needs for three days to stay fortified and hydrated (see number 12). Can-opener also recommended 10 – If you have a propane camping stove, keep extra fuel handy. 9 – Hygiene bags: put packaged moistened towelettes, toilet paper, and plastic ties in large garbage bags (for personal sanitation) Resource list courtesy of Hood River County Emergency Management, Barbara Ayers, manager/ 541-386-1213. The county also reminds residents to Get a Kit, Make A Plan to connect your family if separated, and Stay Informed. See www.co.hood-river.or.us to opt-in for citizen alerts. Enlarge

Mah sees highest no. of card, internet banking frauds in 2012
New Delhi: Maharashtra witnessed the maximum number of fraud cases relating to credit/debit cards and internet banking in 2012, followed by Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Karnataka and Delhi, Parliament was informed today.
The number of such cases in Maharashtra stood at 162, followed by Tamil Nadu (136), Haryana (127), Karnataka (83) and the national capital (75) in 2012, Minister of State for Communications and IT Milind Deora said in a written reply to Rajya Sabha.
These cases are where the amount involved is at least Rs one lakh and have been reported by banks.
The total amount involved in frauds relating to credit card, debit card and internet banking rose by 74 per cent to Rs 38.35 crore in 2012 compared to Rs 22.03 crore in 2011, the minister added.
The total number of credit card, debit card and internet banking fraud cases across the country rose to 682 in 2012 from 638 in 2011, he added.
"Internet frauds reported in the country are relating to phishing, usage of stolen credit cards/debit cards, unauthorised fraudulent Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) transactions, fictitious offers of fund transfer, remittance towards participation in lottery, money circulation schemes and other fictitious offers of cheap funds," the minister said.
Quoting from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) data, Deora added the number of fraud cases as reported by banks due to credit/debit cards, internet has decreased from 15,018 in 2010 to 8,322 in 2012.
"However, the amount involved has increased from Rs 40.49 crore in the year 2010 to Rs 52.67 crore in the year 2012," he said.
The cases registered by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) pertaining to financial frauds under the provisions of Information Technology Act, 200 along with other acts declined to 8 in 2012 from 10 in 2011, he added.
The amount involved in such, however, more than doubled to Rs 28.80 crore in 2012 from Rs 12.43 crore in 2011.
Deora said that cyber crime cases have shown an increasing trend in the past few years.
"As per the cyber crime data maintained by National Crime Records Bureau, a total of 420, 966 and 1,791 cyber crime cases were registered under Information technology Act during 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively, thereby showing an increasing trend," Deora said.
The Minister further added that a total of 276, 356 and 422 cases were registered under cyber crime related sections of IPC during 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

Baked Lamb Dinner With Vegetables
Leg lamb | 1 1⁄4 Kilogram | |
Ground black pepper | 1⁄4 Teaspoon | |
Paprika | 1⁄2 Teaspoon | |
Fresh rosemary leaves | 2 Teaspoon | |
Garlic | 1 Clove (5 gm), crushed | |
Oil | 2 Tablespoon | |
Potatoes | 4 Medium | |
Pumpkin | 400 Gram | |
Onions | 4 Medium | |
Oil | 1 Tablespoon | |
Peas | 1 Cup (16 tbs) (Fresh / Frozen) | |
For gravy | ||
Plain flour | 1⁄4 Tablespoon | |
Chopped fresh rosemary | 1 Teaspoon | |
Water | 1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs) | |
Beef stock cube | 1⁄2 Small, crumbled | |
Worcestershire sauce | 1 Teaspoon | |
For mint sauce | ||
Sugar | 1 Tablespoon | |
Water | 2 Tablespoon | |
Brown vinegar | 1⁄3 Cup (5.33 tbs) | |
Chopped fresh mint | 1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs) |
1.To butterfly lamb: Using sharp knife, cut down the length of the bone as shown, then cut meat from around both bones.
Cut away as much fat as possible.
2.Combine pepper, paprika, rosemary, garlic and oil in small bowl, mix well.
Using hand, rub oil mixture all over both sides of lamb.
3.Place lamb fat side up on rack over baking dish.
Brush or rub potatoes, pumpkin and onions with a little extra oil, place on rack next to lamb, if space permits.
If it doesn't, place in shallow pan (such as lamington pan) or on oven tray.
Deep-sided pans will prevent vegetables from browning.
Bake in moderate oven for about 45 minutes or until lamb is tender and juices are clear when lamb is pierced with a skewer in the thickest part.
Remove lamb from oven, leave vegetables in oven to continue to crisp while you are cooking the peas.
Cover lamb tightly with foil while making gravy; this standing time allows the lamb time to become firm enough to slice.
It will stay hot enough for about 10 minutes.
Gravy: Pour pan drippings from baking dish except for 2 tablespoons.
Place baking dish over heat, add flour, stir constantly over high heat until flour is lightly browned; scrape as much of the coloured bits and pieces from the base of the dish as you can.
These will flavour and colour the gravy.
Remove dish from heat.
Gradually stir in combined rosemary, water, stock cube and Worcestershire sauce.
Return to high heat, stir constantly until mixture boils and thickens; strain into small saucepan (cover to prevent skin forming).
Reheat when necessary.
Cut lamb into enough neat slices for your diners, pour any juices from the lamb back into the saucepan of gravy.
Cover lamb tightly with foil, return to oven to keep warm.
Mint Sauce: Combine sugar and water in small saucepan, stir constantly over high heat, without boiling, until sugar is dissolved; bring to boil, boil 2 minutes, without stirring.
Remove from heat, add vinegar and mint.
Reheat before serving, if you prefer.

Tzila Hayoun. 'We want to appeal to as many people as possible.'. (photo credit:Courtesy)
The fourth edition of the International Writers' Festival, which will take place at its perennial berth of Mishkenot Sha'ananim in Jerusalem, offers something for a wide range of literary leanings, tastes and fields of interest. Artistic director Tzila Hayoun admits to intentionally spreading her marketing net as wide as it would go."We want to appeal to as many people as possible, regardless of their literary preferences," says Hayoun. "Art and literature are wide areas, and there is room for all tastes."

The winner was white. The student had applied for every possible scholarship, and the application form said only that black students were "encouraged to apply," without any statement that the funds were only for black students. In fact, as materials sent to the high school indicated, the scholarship was only for black students. The original winner returned the funds.

The current economic environment has had a devastating impact on the stock market over the past year with a 45% decrease in value from March 2008 to March 2009. The stock market, which consists of similar companies to many closely-held businesses is often considered a proxy for change in value or private companies. Does that mean the value of closely-held businesses decreases 45% in one year? Not necessarily.

Survival rates of the world's most common cancer might soon be increased with a new vitamin E treatment which could significantly reduce tumour regrowth.
Queensland University of Technology (QUT) prostate cancer researchers are leading the fight against a disease which kills 3000 Australian men a year.
Dr Patrick Ling, whose research will be a centrepiece of the new $354 million Translational Research Institute (TRI) when it opens in Brisbane, is leading a team of researchers who have identified a particular constituent of vitamin E, known as tocotrienol (T3), which can inhibit the growth of prostate tumours.
Construction of TRI officially began today (October 19) at the Princess Alexandra Hospital. The world-class facility brings together some of Queensland's best medical researchers from four leading Australian research facilities to turn their work into accessible and potentially life-saving health treatments.
Dr Ling's research has been funded by Davos Life Science in Singapore, who recently awarded him a further $128,000 to undertake a one-year study of the long-term effectiveness of T3 to prevent the recurrence of treated prostate cancer tumours.
"Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer in developed countries," Dr Ling said.
"It is responsible for more male deaths than any other cancer, except lung cancer."
Dr Ling said existing chemotherapy and hormonal therapy treatment of prostate cancer was insufficient because it failed to kill off the prostate cancer stem cells (CSCs) which were believed to be responsible for the regrowth of tumours.
However, the research team have discovered a particular form of T3, called gamma-tocotrienol (γ-T3), can successfully kill off the prostate cancer CSCs.
"Currently there is no effective treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, because it grows back after conventional therapies in more than 70 per cent of cases," he said.
"But with γ-T3, QUT researchers have found a better way to treat prostate cancer, which has the potential to inhibit recurrence of the disease."
Dr Ling said in animal trials, γ-T3 completely inhibited tumour formation in more than 70 per cent of the mice implanted with prostate cancer cells and fed the vitamin E constituent in water. In the remaining cases, tumour regrowth was considerably reduced, while tumours reformed in 100 per cent of the control group.
The findings were published recently in the International Journal of Cancer.
The next stage of Dr Ling's study has begun and will determine the long-term effectiveness of the γ-T3 treatment, with plans to progress to clinical trials in the future.
"Previous clinical trials using another vitamin E constituent to inhibit prostate cancer development were unsuccessful, but these trials did not use the vitamin E constituent γ-T3," he said.
"Other research has found γ-T3 is also effective in suppressing other types of cancer, including breast, colon, liver and gastric."
Dr Ling said while not all vitamin E preparations had the active constituent, natural vitamin E obtained from palm oil was rich in γ-T3.
Professor Ross Young, from QUT's Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation (IHBI), said one of TRI's greatest strengths was to bring together leading researchers.
"Collaboration, which combines the expertise of researchers from different disciplines and institutions to achieve common goals, will lead to better solutions," Professor Young said.
QUT Vice-Chancellor Professor Peter Coaldrake said TRI would greatly benefit Queensland's and Australia's economy and ability to attract the world's best researchers to our shores.
"By having this world-class facility producing research of the highest quality, we will be increasing Queensland's international competitiveness in research," Professor Coaldrake said.
TRI is a collaboration of QUT, the University of Queensland, Princess Alexandra Hospital and the Mater Medical Research Institute, with funding from the Australian Government, Queensland Government, The Atlantic Philanthropies, QUT and UQ.
Dr Ling is based at IHBI and the Australian Prostate Cancer Research Centre - Queensland, a comprehensive research centre to investigate new ways to treat prostate cancer established by QUT and the Princess Alexandra Hospital with funding from the federal government.
His research is funded by world-leading tocotrienol manufacturer Davos Life Science. The Singapore-based company produces γ-T3 from sustainable palm plantations.

i have been such a busy person of late. I'm not sure i'll get everything i want to say in. who says retirement is time for rest and reflection!!! the first thing i want to show you is my new purchases. I've decided i want to have a working treadle machine. thank you bonnie hunter for putting that idea in my head! i used to use my grandmother's waaaaay back in the day. i remember thinking nothing of plopping down and sewing away with whatever thread was in it. here's what I've found....
isn't she a beauty! the mister cleaned it up for me, i oiled it and then i took it down to our local quilt shop. neal, part owner/sewing guru put a new spring on it, a belt and straightened the wheel out. it sews beautifully! it is so heavy that I've named her annie (as in 2 ton annie). according to what I've learned from the Husqvarna site (they own white), my own research and neal we've all decided that its not a white sewing machine but a singer 15-91 that singer made for white. except for the decals there is no difference in the design. i got this beauty, with the table for $35 at the habitat for humanity yard sale! good deal wouldn't you say???
the next purchase was at the brimfield antique show in brimfield ma. i got this treadle base for $40 and this singer for $10! the sewing machine is already set up for a treadle and i love the decals on it. to my surprise there were quite a few treadle bases at the show (there were over 5,000 booths). the latest rage is to take the treadle base and make a table or lamp out of it. we saw many already made and these items were pulled apart to do just that. how sad!!!! i hope i can put her together to make her into a treadle. i haven't named her yet, i have to stare at her for a while and decide what she looks like. she's going to need some things (a belt to connect her with the treadle, a table to set on and something to hold the spool of thread! mechanically though she seems and sounds fine. we'll see!
when i was in Kansas at the quilt show in june i bought the martelli table. it took 8 weeks to get here but i think it was worth it. the table not only raises and lowers electronically but tilts on either side. it came with its own mat and cutting equipment and an ergonomic cutter. i also got a rotary mat cutter that has a round unit that you just place on it to iron on. my sister and bil bargained him down to $25 for (a $100 value) and gave it to me as a gift. as a special for the show they also threw in all the templates they had. they're in that bag to the right of the table! I'm hoping this will help my back. i love the ergonomic cutter. it works wonderfully!
i made these pincushions off the Missouri star quilt company's tutorial. one for me and one for my sister. the one on the left was my first one and you would not believe the trouble i had! once i started to put it together wrong i just couldn't seem to stop. i had to unsew it and put it together 4 different times! i think the funniest one was when i put the tail in the front instead of in the back. it looked suspiciously male but everyone knows there no such thing as a male chicken! the mister looked at me while i pulled apart yet another seam and said, "there's only 4 sides to that. how many times can you do it wrong?" i didn't tell him how many.......the second one i was very careful with and it not only took me only 1/2 hour to make but no mistakes. whew!!!
this is a yard sale BARGAIN that i found last weekend. this is not even half of what i bought. she was selling 4 boxes and 3 gallon freezer bags STUFFED with material. i took it all for $26. all of it was (were?) name brand quilt quality material. there has to be about 500 6" squares. my favorite thing to make is I Spy quilts so i am in fabric heaven. i don't know what this girl does for a living but the strips were from 2-4 inches wide with most of them about 3-3.5 inches. there were hundreds of them. i also got an entire box of batik strips and an entire box of moda plain material strips. she said she was cleaning out her stash.... i still can't believe i got such a bargain. what a nice young girl she was too! she was in her late 20s to 30 years old. i was so excited i didn't even get her name and i should have. to top it all off she had a huge yard (fenced in) full of delightful chickens. my obsession with chickens continues to grow. the mister is worried that i'll start wanted live ones.....he should be worried! this is my new table setting. i bought this rooster at a flea market in Kansas. i love it on my table!
I'm going to end with the wonderful Wells state park campground we stayed at in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. it was peaceful and beautiful and the mister, nora jean and i loved it. today i am so thankful that our rv is fixed, that we've had a wonderful summer weather wise and that going to yard sales has been such fun and is becoming an obsession. we never bothered with them until we moved to the beautiful white mountains in NH. i am also thankful for nora jean's continued good health. she will be 13 on October 1st. mmmmmm what can i get or make her that she doesn't already have??? hugs, nancyb

Please explain gel ant farms.
I see comments that they are bad but not why they are bad.
What is the gel made of? Do ants actually eat it? Or just move it around?
Are they okay for any kinds of ants?
How about temporary queen housing?

Re: Please explain gel ant farms
The gel was designed by NASA as a solid, edible, and translucent substrate to study the effects of zero-gravity on invertebrates. It was not designed for the long-term habitation of ants, and will eventually mold and kill everything inside. It does not provide full nutrition for ants either.

Small Families Looking for a Multi-Activity Vehicle are Turning to the Infiniti EX and FX Series at Infiniti of CincinnatiSmall, active families are looking for an alternative to a Minivan or huge SUV. Multi-activity vehicles (MAVs), like the Infiniti EX and FX, tend to be less expensive, easier to handle, and have better fuel economy than their larger counterparts.by Pat Longhorn Thursday, March 10, 2011
The sales staff at Infiniti of Cincinnati is in-tune to the needs of families when it comes to their vehicles. The Infiniti EX, named Best Car for the Money by US News magazine, has a multitude of family-friendly features. Reviewers loved the EXs luxurious interior with comfortable and supportive front seats. Also noted were the high-tech features like a hard drive for music and Infinitis innovative around view system. The Around View System gives drivers a nearly 360-degree view of the area around the EX. Safety features are numerous on Infinitis MAVs, with standard features including items like lane departure warning, blind spot warning, adaptive cruise control and collision mitigation. The EX also has plenty of cargo space for a small family, with 18.6 cubic feet, expanding to 47.2 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded down. Cars.com blogger and Mom, Kristin Varela explains that MAVs are generally smaller and more maneuverable with multiple WiFi and connectivity features. Infiniti of Cincinnati knows just how important the family-friendly options are in the EX and FX models. Both MAVs have power folding seats that can be operated from the dash or the rear of the car to eliminate the tug and pull of some folding seats. The rear seats also have the option of a 40/60 split for enlarging cargo space, while still allowing passengers to sit comfortably. Infiniti vehicles remain some of the best in class when it comes to safety, dependability and re-sale value. The Infiniti EX and FX allow small families to have a stylish ride with all of the necessary features of a family car. Stop in to Infiniti of Cincinnati today to test drive the EX and FX series or view their large inventory online at www.infinitiofcincinnati.com.

Spring break road trips are traditionally a time to head off to a warmer climate for some well-deserved fun and relaxation. And when we're in the grips of a long winter's cold snap, we can easily imagine ourselves kicking back on our favorite beach with old friends while making new ones.
Of course, there's that little matter of the road trip itself. Whether you look to the road trip as a means to an end or the end in itself, your travels will be far more enjoyable if you properly budget for gas along the way. The last thing you want is to leave paying at the pump up to chance.
Regardless of how far you're traveling, it's always a good idea to make sure your car is in good working order before a road trip — so a tune-up may be a good idea. The U.S. Department of Energy says things like low tire pressure and dirty air filters can reduce a car's gas mileage, so make sure your car undergoes proper pre-trip maintenance.
In addition to making sure your car's ready, it's also a good idea to have a rough idea of how many gallons of gas you'll need to get from Point A to Point B, so you can estimate your gas costs. Online calculators are one good way to do this. For example, GasBuddy.com's Trip Cost Calculator can help you estimate how much you'll spend on gas by taking into account your route, your car model's gas mileage and gas prices you can expect to find along the route.
Now that you have a pretty good idea of your average mileage, you'll need to know what the average gas prices are along the way. Fortunately, recent technology has made this calculation much easier and more accurate. All you have to do is use a tool like Allstate's Fuel Finder. This fast, easy-to-use gas price locator can help you find low prices at nearby pumps. All the preparations add up to money that stays in your pocket.
It's nice to plan a few sightseeing stops along the way, but keep in mind that the further you travel off the beaten path, the more you'll wind up paying for gas. Think of it this way: Taking a break at a rest area right by the interstate may not be the picturesque stop you had in mind, but skipping a long detour may help you save enough money to enjoy something fun at your ultimate destination.
No matter how carefully you budget, it's your right foot that'll help decide how much gas you burn. Take a hint from the U.S. Department of Energy and go easy on the accelerator when the light turns green. Also, keep to the speed limit. Not only does this promote safer driving and more fuel efficiency, but it also helps prevent you from getting a speeding ticket, which can put a dent in any vacation budget.
No matter how much planning goes into your road trip, sometimes, the unexpected happens — like running out of gas. So, it's also a good idea to have a backup plan, such as roadside assistance — just in case.
Now that you've done your budgeting and planning, it's time to enjoy your spring break road trip!

sipa rips and the parkin lot is never packed , the snow is better than surfin
Free refills starting at 12:00! Happy hour on the mountain all day long!
gr8 spring skiing conditions in Jan. snow was good. decent coverage. no crowds. highly recommend shreddin here
today was great skiing. not too windy and was warm. snow was fluffy, perfect day. the left side blues were showing some ground but the other side was great.
Sipa was great yesterday. 4 new inches. The snow just keeps getting better.
Dec 18 good powder, icy in some spots at end of day. Dec 19 heavy snowstorm excellent deep powder for Mexico. some lift despite the new powder remained closed. I like sipapu because of the small family atmosphere and no lift lines!
sunday morning snow!
