Last week we took a look at some of the top blueliners that are on scouts lists for the May 5th WHL Bantam Draft. This time around we'll go with forwards.
A lot of people believe that the first overall pick isn't a slam dunk like last year with Alex Forsberg going to Prince George, but others will tell you they have a definitive first overall player. Keep in mind scouts see players with different view points, they're not robots so while one isn't a fan of a certain a player there are other(s) who are really high on him. And just because a player isn't on a top ten list or even drafted in the top ten doesn't mean they aren't a future star (see Max Reinhart, drafted 15th overall last year, the hottest prospect in the WHL right now).
So here it is, ten forwards of all shapes, sizes and skill sets to watch for at next week's Bantam draft and at some point next season in a WHL arena.
10. Tanner MacMaster- Calgary Bisons 5'8 135lbs
One of the top scorers in the AMBHL, Tanner has a skill set that should translate very nicely at the WHL level. A major injury at the AB Cup left many scouts scratching their heads. "...His size is still a big question as is his durability."
9. Adam Brooks- Winnpeg Hawks 5'10" 153 lbs
Adam has been Manitoba's top forward all season long. His recent performance at the Western Canadian Bantam Championship should keep Adam in the first round.
8. Miles Warkentine- Prince Albert Pirates 6'0"175 lbs
"....The best true power forward in this year's draft." Miles combines a very gritty game with a knack for the net, one of the toughest kids to play against all year long.
7. Kolten Olynek- Saskatoon Outlaws 5'7" 150lbs
Kolten may be a little undersized but his speed and skill more than make up for it. "....The fastest player in this year's draft class." 75 goals in 46 games speaks well of his touch around the net.
6. Ryan Gropp- Kamloops Blazers 6;1" 160 lbs
The top forward from a very skilled Kamloops team and scouts say Ryan has shown vast improvement all year long. Skill, size and able to make things happen around the net should make Ryan a top 15 pick.
5. Dakota Odgers- Melville Millionaires 5'11" 184 lbs
The riskiest pick in this year's draft may also be the safest. Dakota missed most of the year with a shoulder injury but was a preseason top 10 pick. "...His skill and work ethic is unmatched." Son of former NHL tough guy Jeff Odgers.
4. Reid Duke- Calgary Royals 5' 10" 170 lbs
The best individually skilled forward that will hear his name called on May 5th. "...this kid has the ability to 'wow' you on a regular basis." 64 points in 30 games makes him one of the best offensive players in this draft.
3. Reid Gardiner- Humboldt Broncos 5'11" 172 lbs
A strong two way player that some feel is could step in and play in the WHL right now. A work horse that loves to compete "…a true leader, he could be a captain in the WHL by the time he's 18"
2. Ty Mappin- Red Deer White 5'11" 168 lbs
Ty capped off a sensational bantam campaign with an outstanding performance at the Alberta Cup. "...this guys is the best forward in the entire province of Alberta no question" Ty's versatile play also allows him to play defence when called upon, thus making him one of the top defenceman in this year's draft as well!
1. Jake Virtanen – Abbotsford 6' 172lbs
The premier forward in this draft class. "....He dominates with size, skill and speed like no one else, you build around a true franchise player like him". He could be the first BC raised player since Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to be selected first overall.
"Knocking On The Door"
Brayden Olyksen (Beardy's Blackhawks) Tyler Sandhu (Seafair Islanders), Dane Schioler (Winnipeg Hawks),Connor Bleakley (Okotoks Oilers), Colin Shirley (Saskatoon Bandits), Rhett Gardner (Moose Jaw Warriors) Blake Penner (Notre Dame Hounds), Brayden Point (Calgary Bisons).

I'm feeling pretty majestic today…want to know why?
ChiCityFashion in the Pioneer Press
During fashion week in New York, I met with the lovely Meg Moore of the Pioneer Press to discuss all things fashion and Chicago. And today my interview is published in 19 of the Pioneer Press papers! I'm so thankful to be included in something major like this (and being from the 'burbs I'm quite familiar with these newspapers) so I hope you'll check it out.

A special thank you to Amy Creyer for taking this photo during NYFW.
My Quote in The Red Eye: Drape a Cape This Fall

Oliver Peoples Comes To Chicago
Yesterday morning I attended the press breakfast for the Oliver Peoples store opening. They celebrated their grand opening of their new store on Rush Street yesterday and I am beyond thrilled to have such a reputable brand as part of the shopping scene in Chicago.
Oliver Peoples' designs are based on vintage American-made eyewear. Their retro yet classic styles are the core of their brand and it's what keeps people coming back; they know they'll get quality glasses that will never go out of style.
It was an honor to meet founder and creative director Larry Leight at the press breakfast. He was such a fun, laid-back guy who is beyond passionate for what he does. In the past he has collaborated on the launch of Prada, Miu Miu and Jil Sander's eyewear brands (just to name a few). He was also one of the first eyewear designers to ever be elected othe CFDA.
Browsing the new collection of Oliver Peoples eyewear in the stunning dining room of Ria at the Elysian felt far from work…but I had to get it done so I can share this amazing experience with you Larry Leight describes his approach to the collection as "Simplistic, sartorial sexiness. None of the styles are overdone-they are timeless and classic-yet they embody the sensuality of the glamorous Hollywood figures they were inspired by." I couldn't have said it better myself…
Oh, and they have produced a limited edition run (50 to be exact) of these amazing rosegold aviators that are exclusive to Chicago!
Although a California-based company, I am more than happy to welcome Oliver Peoples to the lovely city of Chicago. I am looking forward to having more major brands like Oliver Peoples make their way to Chicago and become a part of our ever-growing fashion scene.
Be sure to visit the new Oliver Peoples store at 941 Rush Street.

by Donna Slaton, Kentucky & Tennessee Valley Chapters, Solo Librarians Division
Selection is the librarian's most valuable tool for the future. Selection is not censorship. Librarians of the future should select for value and purpose with clearly defined goals in mind. When the whole world can "Google" anything in print pretty much, what will set libraries apart is the professional arrangement of valuable and useful materials, not the inclusion of vulgar, pornagraphic or trendy material just to say they are not censoring anything. It is time to "control" your stuff and choose wisely, not catalog anything and everything but choose selectively so that libraries are a respected resource not a less than "Google" sized collection of anything and everything.
Selection policies need to be reviewed often in this changing world not to reflect the largest possibilities for gathering in but the most specific scope for the library and its population to be served. Public and academic libraries more than special libraries have continuously grown beyond reason because they have in the last two decades tried to collect everything. But even special libraries that have a more narrow focus have been growing with the attitude that bigger is better to the point where storage and staff expense is not in line with value given to anyone except other librarians.
Weeding is also a necessary tool of selection. Once you have selected it, you have to recognize if it is not in use, or has never been used, you should move it out to provide space for necessary materials. Too many librarians still horde old stuff because they cannot bear to throw away a book. There is simply too much stuff in print for anyone to ever read and too many copies of most of it.
With the advent of OCLC network and Inter Library Loan accessibility, budgets for that continuously grew as well. When I graduated college in the mid 70s, ILL was for serious scholarly research – not for the public, private or special libraries to loan each other at growing mail expenses( which is more than the cost of a paperback), either the second oldest James Patterson novel, or an obscure author that is only held by three libraries, because his second cousin in another state just decided he wanted to read it.
We have promoted libraries as the respository of everything without focusing on needs instead of wants. Libraries cannot out google Google. We do not accept paid advertising. The sooner we realize that and specialize in what we do best as the original search engine the more ready for the future we will be with valuable materials and useful information, not just a room full of stuff.
With sharply focused collections, bibliographies of materials, and links specifically addressing our unique clientele's needs, special librarians have an opportunity to lead the way in guiding users to the needed materials without gathering all of it ourselves. Future ready is smaller and smarter.
Donna F. Slaton is Librarian II for the Green River Correctional Complex – a medium security prison in Kentucky's Dept of Corrections. She served 10 years as Associate Director of the Hopkins County-Madisonville Public Library and switched from public to special libraries in 2008, joining SLA in 2009. She writes a weekly column for the Madisonville Messenger newspaper and blogs under LibraryUp and LibraryLadyWrites and is Past President of the Kentucky Storytelling Association.

Review of Wildscreen 2008 festival and winners
Wildscreen YouTube channel
Wildscreen, the world's largest and most prestigious wildlife and environmental film festival, will be touring India and Sri Lanka in February 2009.
Nine wildlife or environmental filmmakers from the UK will be coming to India and Sri Lanka as part of this event, organized by the British Council. The festival will also see screenings of wildlife and environmental films from across the world, some of them winners of the Wildscreen festival's Panda Awards, the environmental equivalent of the Oscars.
The Wildscreen Festival was founded by Sir Peter Scott in 1982. It has been organised every alternate year for the past 25 years, and is now considered to be the world's largest and most prestigious wildlife and environmental film festival. Held in Bristol, UK, it attracts hundreds of delegates from around the globe who work in film, television and new media, as well as those involved in environmental conservation.
"We are delighted to be returning to India to further develop our relationship with Indian audiences and filmmakers, whilst exploring new markets in Sri Lanka," says Harriet Nimmo, Wildscreen's Chief Executive. "These countries are key destinations because they are developing fast, with eco-systems which are under threat from rapid economic development and climate change."
She adds: "The films being screened as part of this year's Festival have an environmental focus, including engaging stories about climate change - and aim to inspire and enthuse those interested in preserving and protecting India's and Sri Lanka's precious biodiversity."
The Festival is coming to Sri Lanka for the first time. The programme, held at the British Council Colombo on 12 - 13 February 2009, will screen several award winning films on climate change and wildlife, showcasing the best of current environmental film making worldwide.
The Colombo event will also include master classes by three UK filmmakers on various aspects of making and distributing factual films, such as the role of films in environmental conservation, scriptwriting and managing a film production. They will be joined by three Sri Lankan TV/film professionals who will share their own experiences in documentary film making and TV programme production (see box).
TV news for investigative environmental reporting
During Wildscreen festival in Colombo, a session on this topic will be presented by Thusitha Pitigala, Producer, Action TV, and Asoka Dias, Station Director, MTV Channel (Private) Limited, Sri Lanka.
Action TV is a daily investigative story on the station's news bulletins branded as News 1st. Going out in English, Sinhala and Tamil, these stories are produced by a roving team of TV journalists who not only unearth instances of corruption, bureaucratic apathy or injustice, but also follow up with relevant state officials for remedial actions. Among the dozens of public interest stories taken up Action TV are many related to the people's right for a clean and healthy environment. This session will share the investigative techniques, experiences and challenges faced by Action TV team through two case studies – covering sea sand mining in Panadura and human-elephant conflict in Thabbowa in North-western Province.
On 14 February 2009, TVE Asia Pacific will present a selection of films on environment and sustainable development drawn from their global catalogue, which includes some Sri Lankan and South Asian titles. Click here for screening schedule
Admission to film screenings and master classes is free and open to the public. Participation in master classes requires prior registration with the British Council. Details are available at their website.
British Council is the UK's international organisation for educational opportunities and cultural relations. Our purpose is to build engagement and trust for the UK through the exchange of knowledge and ideas between people worldwide. The British Council is active in 109 countries and 227 towns and cities worldwide.
Wildscreen is a charity registered in Bristol that uses wildlife imagery to promote and encourage conservation. Wildscreen is unique; by using photographs and film to illustrate the beauty of the natural world we aim to inspire and enthuse a whole new generation of conservationists. Films and photographs are an emotive, powerful and effective means of building environmental awareness, helping to ignite the first spark of interest in natural history and stimulating a continuing passion for the wonders of life on Earth. With growing extinction rates, they also provide an important historical record of the planet's endangered plants and animals.
TVE Asia Pacific is a Colombo-based, regionally operating media foundation that communicates for sustainable development through television, video and the web. It is both a producer and distributor of educational video films for broadcast, civil society and educational uses across the Asia Pacific region.

Stuck on lvl 33
Help. Stuck on 33. Can't even get closing to winning this level
Answer from: Sky
I hope this is helpful: If you use the bubbles to clear a row, the toxic bubbles will pop and you will lose bubbles. Decide if the cost of the toxic bubbles is worth it. Will it take more than the number of toxic bubbles X 3 to get around them? if you haven't already, work on your angle shots. If you can clear the row above the toxic bubbles, they will fall. Most of the baby bubbles are on the sides. Decide if you really need to go up the middle... Good luck.

Be it sweat, tears—all those summer weddings!—or a dip in a swimming pool, there are lots of reasons our makeup has a meltdown on a sultry summer day. And melting mascara, running eyeliner or blotchy blush can mar even your most fetching summer look.
The good news is that with new waterproof products your makeup won't stray or slip away no matter how high the mercury climbs.
Even when you're hanging poolside, mascara is the one makeup product you won't want to skip. "It makes your eyes look vivid, but it doesn't read as makeup," says Brett Freedman, celebrity makeup artist who has worked with Eva Mendes, Kelly Clarkson and Vanessa Hudgens.
Not long ago, choosing a waterproof mascara meant being willing to sacrifice a few lashes, because the formulas required so much tugging to remove. Not anymore. Cargo Better-than-waterproof Mascara rinses off with just soap and water and even contains vitamins that boost the health of your fringe. Take it on vacation and leave the makeup remover at home!
Lots of bronzers help you achieve a sun-kissed glow. What makes Pop Beauty Tan in a Pan Waterproof Bronzer a standout is that its velvety caramel tone stays put through two sets of tennis, a surfing lesson, a night of rooftop salsa dancing or all three. Plus, it's teamed with a luminous highlighter to make you even more irresistible. Dust on the high point of your cheekbones, brow bones, inner corners of your eyes and the beguiling bow of your lips.
A hint of metallic shimmer when you lower your eyes oh-so-coyly is oh-so-flirtatious. Don't spoil the mood with leaky liner. Smashbox Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner comes in last-all-day colors that include bronze, navy blue, midnight purple and teal.
"Black liner can be a little intense for summer," says Freedman, "but a metallic hue that shimmers in the light is just beautiful."
When you swap your full-coverage winter foundation for tinted moisturizer or bare skin, you need to know you can rely on your concealer to keep trouble spots like blemishes or dark circles under wraps. Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer won't melt or migrate on you. Known as the "magic eraser" by Hollywood beauty insiders, this is what has kept stars flawless through countless beach and shower scenes, as well as summer nights on the red carpet.
Allergies that make your eyes water, a tumble off a floating raft, an ice cream cone you lick to the last drop—you never know what's going to threaten to ruin your makeup during a summer's day. Deflect all threats with Benefit Cosmetics She Laq, a clear liquid makeup sealer that you apply to shadows, mascaras, liners and lipstick for makeup that stays put. Even corn on the cob can't scare you!

January 10, 2011
In the future, 2010 may be known as the year of the GPU, or at least its big debut. China stole TOP500 glory using the massively parellel processing power of the graphics chip. And while the US can claim no GPU-based supercomputers among the top 10, GPGPU computing is having a big influence on US science and research.
In a piece over at Scientific Computing, Rob Farber examines the growing popularity of GPU computing. As a senior research scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Farber has a good vantage point to see how the evolution of computing technology affects science on the ground. Farber argues that multi-threaded and GPGPU technology are changing the dynamics of scientific computing, delivering fresh opportunities into the realms of academia, product development and HPC research. In particular, GPGPU computing has made it possible to do more science with fewer or cheaper resources.
Says Farber:
Graphic processors have matured into general purpose computational devices at exactly the right time to be considered in this industry-wide retooling to utilize multi-threaded parallelism. To put this in very concrete terms, any teenager (or research effort) from Beijing, China, to New Delhi, India, can purchase a teraflop-capable graphics processor and start developing and testing massively parallel applications.
While it's no secret that multicore hardware requires applications that can harness that power, the fact is that hardware is way out in front with software struggling to catch up. Lest that disconnect continue to be a major blight on scientific progress, Farber doles out this cautionary advice:
Legacy applications and research efforts that do not invest in multi-threaded software will not benefit from modern multi-core processors, because single-threaded and poorly scaling software will not be able to utilize extra processor cores. As a result, computational performance will plateau at or near current levels, placing the projects that depend on these legacy applications at risk of both stagnation and loss of competitiveness.
Still, Farber predicts that HPC will experience tremendous progress as the next generation of software developers master the challenges associated with massively-parallel programming. Multicore-aware software is the key that will unlock the full potential of multicore hardware. Hardware that is already here. Farber notes that major HPC vendors have developed or are in the process of developing hybrid systems that can take advantage of the parellel nature of GPUs. Many, if not most, supercomputing centers are themselves evaluating hybrid CPU-GPU architectuers, among them Tokyo Tech, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) and PNNL.

Laparo says the facility will house the serial killer until the time of his execution.
CLEVELAND, Ohio—
Convicted serial killer Anthony Sowell has been transferred out of the Cuyahoga County jail and will now be housed at the Ohio State Penitentiary in Youngstown, according to officials with the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.Carlo Laparo, spokesperson for the ODRC, said that Sowell was booked into the Ohio State Penitentiary on Wednesday. Sowell had to take a new mugshot and was processed at the facility, according to Laparo.
Laparo says the facility will house the serial killer until the time of his execution.
Sowell has been sentenced to die for killing 11 women in and around his Imperial Avenue home over a two-year span. He was found guilty of 82 of the 83 counts against him at trial.
Sowell's execution date is set for October 29, 2012 pending appeals.

Obama signs St. Croix Bridge bill
by Brett Neely, Minnesota Public RadioSt. Paul, Minn. — President Barack Obama has signed legislation authorizing a replacement for the aging Stillwater Lift Bridge.
The approval grants an exemption to the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act to build a new, four-lane bridge over the St. Croix River. The project is estimated to cost as much as $676 million.
Although the legislation passed both chambers of Congress by wide margins, Minnesota's delegation was divided.
DFL Representatives Betty McCollum and Keith Ellison argued that the planned replacement was too large and expensive, and set a dangerous precedent for river protection nationwide.
The bill's signing also represents a rare bipartisan achievement in a bitterly divided Congress: Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann worked closely with DFL Sen. Amy Klobuchar to pass the legislation.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation has already named an engineer to manage the project. The bridge will span Oak Park Heights and St. Joseph, Wis. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2014 and will take three years to complete
The bill's approval pleases Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who was one of the bill's chief sponsors.
"The president, we knew he was going to sign it, it was never in doubt," Klobuchar said.
"After 30 years of debate and delay, we finally got it done," Klobuchar said. "This is a victory for the residents and businesses along the St. Croix River Valley who have waited long enough for a safe, new bridge."
Not all are pleased, however. Environmental advocates fear the bridge will lead to sprawl in Wisconsin that could harm the river valley and water quality.

Does the Do Not Call List Work?
Unsolicited phone calls can be aggravating and annoying, but can they be stopped?
As far back as 1991, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has tried to stop unsolicited phone calls. Original rules included provisions that anyone who calls has to provide his or her name, the company from which they are calling, and a number at which to be called back. Calls could also not be made after 9 p.m. or before 8 a.m.
Now, with many people having caller ID, ignoring solicitation calls has been made easier than before. You can also request your number be put on a national do not call list by visiting the Do Not Call Web site. Each state also has it's own do not call list that can be found at the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners Web site.
But with all the ways to identify and stop unwanted callers, many companies still find a way to make the calls, even with a FCC fine as a threat.
Are you getting more and more unsolicited calls even though you are on the Do Not Call List? Tell us in the comments box.

Card Services is a scam based out of Washington, DC. You can expect more calls from them. They jump around from state to state staying ahead of any enforcement of DNC efforts, if there are any. Placing your number on the Do Not Call list prolly does eliminate a great number of calls you would have gotten. It may actually be a Federal program that works. But they don't have the manpower to investigate every scammer out there, and the problem isn't of such magnitude that any further expenditures would be warranted.

It is so frustrating to deal with them. They give you the option to select "3" to be placed on their do not call list. I've tried - that doesn't work. I've also held on to speak with a representative. The minute I start to either ask questions about who they are or where they are located, they hang up. I've filed online complaints through the do not call list too. So frustrating!

@ Kristi--see, that's where you made your mistake--you picked up! These scammers get paid on number of contacts as well as actual sales, so by picking up you made them money and were marked as a guaranteed constant call-back. I've heard even answering machines trigger some profit for these weasels. @Carol--Complaints to the DNC are fruitless: see my post above.

Ditto, Kristi..........I am so sick and tired of getting calls telling me that the FBI thinks my neighborhood is subject to lots of crime, and I'd better have them come out and install a "FREE" security system, I could scream. Sometimes the calls come several times in the same day. So far, the DNC list is not effective against a number of companies that insist on repeat calls. And do they think that after being inundated with their annoying calls, I would actually want to abuse myself with their services?

@R - LOL! Sorry to disappoint you. @Carol - That's what I don't understand. Why on earth would they think annoying me with call after call after call would possibly earn my business?

"I can't say enough good things about the Amethyst Trio. They played from a very impressive repertoire for the three hours of our wedding reception and, even though there were 60 people in a relatively small space, their sound never "got in the way" of conversation. Lara is dependable, flexible and accommodating;three very important adjectives for the business she's in;and I wouldn't hesitate in giving her my highest and most enthusiastic recommendation!"

Today on this 2009 Chevrolet Silverado we are going to be installing the replacement Twist-In 7-Way Connector, part number PK11916. If we look back here at the rear of the vehicle, on the upper side of the step bumper, you can see we have got a factory knock-out plug here. This is where our Twist-In Connector is going to plug into. We are actually going to remove this cover here we are actually going to put our new 7-way plug in its place. To remove the knock-out cover, we need to just depress this tab here on the bumper, and that is going to allow us to twist counter-clockwise. I am just going to depress the tab here and disconnect the two.
You can see there are seven connection points in there that are going to merge up with our new 7-pole plug that we are going to be plugging it into. Just take and plug the two together, and then we will just feed it back through the opening and twist it clockwise into place. And that will conclude the installation of wiring harness, part number 20047, on a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado.
Pollak Twist-In Trailer Connector Installation - 2011 Chevrolet Silverado
All right. Today, on this 2011 Chevrolet Silverado, we're going to install Part Number PK11916. Now, our truck has a cap for the wiring harness, but doesn't have a plug in it all ready. So first step, we're going to go ahead and remove the cap. Looking at the cap in the bumper, we'll push down on a small tab on the left hand side. We'll use a screw driver to help push it out then we'll twist the cap.
Fifth Wheel and Gooseneck Wiring Harness Installation - 2013 Chevrolet Silverado
Today on this 2013 Chevrolet Silverado were going to install part number PK11893-11932. Our first step is to go ahead and install the wires to the socket that will eventually go into the back of the seven pole connector. Well go ahead and install the wires as follows according to the instructions. Our wires just push into place and the individual sockets are labeled, so number one will get the red wire, number two will get the white wire, number three will get the blue wire, and four will get the green wire. Were going to skip to number seven, the yellow wire, and put that in the number seven socket, that way well have room. Five will have the black wire and socket six will have the brown wire.
Pollak Twist-In Trailer Connector Installation - 2012 Chevrolet Silverado
Today, on our 2012 Chevy Silverado well install the Pollak Twist-In 7 pole connector, part number pk11916. First, before we can install the connector well need to remove the manufactures wiring from the back of the blank connector. To remove the wiring well first need to pull back on the locking tab lock. Then, press on the locking tab and remove the wiring connector from the blank connector. Now, with the wiring removed go to t he outside of the bumper, press on the blank connector lock and then twist it and pull it out of its position. Next, well take the new Pollak 7 pole connector and install it into the bumper in reverse order of removing our blank connector.
Trailer Connector Socket Installation - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado
Today on our 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, were going to install part number HM40975 from Hopkins. Well start off our install by installing the bracket onto the bumper of the truck. We can provide a hardware to attach it. Then well go ahead and take the factory wire harness on the vehicle and plug it into the back side of the connector. Once everything is plugged together, well take the connector and snap it into the bracket, and then were finished. And there you have for our part number HM40975 from Hopkins..
Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2012 Chevrolet Silverado
Alright, today on a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 3500, were going to install part number 51-97-410. First thing to do is find a location in the bed to drill out for a triple connector. Were going to drill out in this location right here (drilling). Alright now, well take a wire, run it through the hole and out through the bottom of the truck (drilling). Next well disconnect the natural connector 4-7 pole that's inside the bumper. There's a little locking tab, that removes, the gray one that's kind of hidden so you're going to take some time taking it apart.

There is good news on homecoming party. Girls will be excited when the news reaches you. The general story is a prom and homecoming dress sale will be open by Tracy Burdick and Courtney Watland who both want to lend a helping hand to local high school dancegoers and benefit the schools at the same time.
The sale will be started from 11 in the morning to 1 in the afternoon, Sunday,Aug.28, at Bruce Township Hall, 218 N.Sterling ST. A lot of sellers will come here to sell their dresses at 11 a.m
If you are interested and are near or in the town, you can come here to search your homecoming dresses 2011 for the coming homecoming party.
If you are a girl who lives on a budget, it would still be benefit to girls and their families by buying dress for a cheaper price. Watland claimed this aims to make it more affordable for girls and their families.
Homecoming is coming. Some famous designers have already launched their new collection, but because of the brand and top quality, many girls have no choice to stay away from the new styles. Don't be sad. There are still a lot of limited choices for you to consideration. Homecoming gowns come to short styles, and the change on a year on year basic is only about details. The general style and color has no big change.
This practice is popular and will be successful because homecoming dresses, prom dresses usually only are worn once. So the dress you are going to buy is as new as the dresses in stores.
One of the starters, Burdick, said "to help the kids make their homecoming, prom and even graduation special is all we are wanting to do,".

SummaryCells in intestinal epithelia turn over rapidly due to damage from digestion and toxins produced by the enteric microbiota. Gut homeostasis is maintained by intestinal stem cells (ISCs) that divide to replenish the intestinal epithelium, but little is known about how ISC division and differentiation are coordinated with epithelial cell loss. We show here that when enterocytes (ECs) in the Drosophila midgut are subjected to apoptosis, enteric infection, or JNK-mediated stress signaling, they produce cytokines (Upd, Upd2, and Upd3) that activate Jak/Stat signaling in ISCs, promoting their rapid division. Upd/Jak/Stat activity also promotes progenitor cell differentiation, in part by stimulating Delta/Notch signaling, and is required for differentiation in both normal and regenerating midguts. Hence, cytokine-mediated feedback enables stem cells to replace spent progeny as they are lost, thereby establishing gut homeostasis.

Cell Stem Cell, Volume 8, Issue 1, 7 January 2011, Pages 84-95
Huaqi Jiang, Marc O. Grenley, Maria-Jose Bravo, Rachel Z. Blumhagen and Bruce A. Edgar
SummaryMany tissues in higher animals undergo dynamic homeostatic growth, wherein damaged or aged cells are replaced by the progeny of resident stem cells. To maintain homeostasis, stem cells must respond to tissue needs. Here we show that in response to damage or stress in the intestinal (midgut) epithelium of adult Drosophila, multiple EGFR ligands and rhomboids (intramembrane proteases that activate some EGFR ligands) are induced, leading to the activation of EGFR signaling in intestinal stem cells (ISCs). Activation of EGFR signaling promotes ISC division and midgut epithelium regeneration, thereby maintaining tissue homeostasis. ISCs defective in EGFR signaling cannot grow or divide, are poorly maintained, and cannot support midgut epithelium regeneration after enteric infection by the bacterium Pseudomonas entomophila. Furthermore, ISC proliferation induced by Jak/Stat signaling is dependent upon EGFR signaling. Thus the EGFR/Ras/MAPK signaling pathway plays central, essential roles in ISC maintenance and the feedback system that mediates intestinal homeostasis.

SummaryEffective defense responses involve the entire organism. To maintain body homeostasis after tissue damage, a systemic wound response is induced in which the response of each tissue is tightly orchestrated to avoid incomplete recovery or an excessive, damaging response. Here, we provide evidence that in the systemic response to wounding, an apoptotic caspase pathway is activated downstream of reactive oxygen species in the midgut enterocytes (ECs), cells distant from the wound site, in Drosophila. We show that a caspase-pathway mutant has defects in homeostatic gut cell renewal and that inhibiting caspase activity in fly ECs results in the production of systemic lethal factors after wounding. Our results indicate that wounding remotely controls caspase activity in ECs, which activates the tissue stem cell regeneration pathway in the gut to dampen the dangerous systemic wound reaction.

Add/View Comments (0)Trachea-Derived Dpp Controls Adult Midgut Homeostasis in Drosophila
Zhouhua Li1, Yan Zhang1, Lili Han1, Lai Shi1 and Xinhua Lin1, ,
Corresponding authorGraphical Abstract
► Trachea-derived Dpp/Bmp is required for midgut homeostasis ► Dpp expressed in tracheal cells reach intestinal cells through visceral muscles ► Dpp signaling is activated in enterocytes (ECs) in the Drosophila adult midgut ► Dpp signaling stabilizes ECs to restrict intestinal stem cell proliferation
- Homeostasis in adult tissues is maintained by resident stem cells and their progeny. Little is known about the regulation of tissue homeostasis by organ-organ interaction. Here we demonstrate that trachea-derived Decapentaplegic (Dpp), the main bone morphogenetic protein ligand in Drosophila, is essential for adult midgut homeostasis. We show that Dpp signaling is primarily activated in enterocytes (ECs). Depletion of Dpp signaling in ECs results in excess amounts of intestinal stem-cell-like cells and their progeny. Importantly, we find that Dpp is expressed specifically in tracheal cells that reach the intestinal cells through the visceral muscles. Depletion of dpp expression in tracheal cells phenocopies the Dpp loss-of-function defects in ECs. Our data demonstrate that the Drosophila trachea not only exchanges air for bodily needs but also produces a Dpp morphogen essential for neighboring tissue homeostasis. This work will provide important insights into the mechanisms of tissue homeostasis control by interorgan communication.

The Garrick Club commissioned Conservation Technologies to replicate an 18th century terracotta bust of William Shakespeare by the sculptor Roubiliac. The replica bust was to be produced in plaster at actual size (approximately 620 mm tall). A method of replication involving no contact| with the original bust was required. A 'new' base for the original bust was also created in 18th century style.
The original bust was laser scanned| and an accurate 3D computer model created, from which a master model was 'printed' in two parts. A mould was then taken from the master model and the replica cast in plaster, which was painted and 'finished' by hand to give the appearance of terracotta. Working from drawings supplied by a curator, Conservation Technologies also created a 3D computer model of a new base and generated images showing how the original bust would appear when displayed on the base. After a few minor adjustments to its design, Conservation Technologies produced the actual base, which was hand-finished to look like aged terracotta.
The replica bust went on display at a temporary exhibition entitled 'Shakespeare cast as the nation's hero' at the Orleans House Gallery| in London in 2008.
