Andrée Jardin
Vintage-Inspired French Push Broom, 12.75" true
Sweeper keeper.
For 60 years, Andree Jardin has been making beautiful wood brushes in Brittany, France. Jardin's husband, George-René Julio, was an apprentice to a brush-maker in Nantes and with his know-how, the pair opened up their factory in 1947. With the advent of plastic, traditional brush-making techniques fell by the wayside, so these brooms and dusters are some of the only high-quality options made in the old-school way—using horsehair and silk bristles, and sturdy wood handles. We love that they've maintained their traditional beauty while incorporating modern, whimsical design touches.
This classic push broom (exclusive to Food52!) will have you whistling while you work, thanks to cheerful colors (grey, blue, or pink) and fine horse hair bristles that pick up every last speck of dust. You can purchase the head without the handle if you already have one from another Andree Jardin design—or buy the other color heads separately and switch them up depending on your mood!
Some assembly required. See Care & Notes for details.

Details & Materials -
Made in:
Made of:
Horse hair, beech wood
Head is 12.75" L x 4" H (with 2" H bristles) and handle is 51" L x 1.125" in diameter with 3" L leather loop for hanging
Care & Notes
To clean, first immerse bristles in brush in soapy water. Second, rinse with lukewarm water. Third, shake remaining water after washing. Fourth, allow the broom to dry at room temperature. Finally, finish by combing the bristles.
As the handle and brush head are not attached, some assembly is required. To assemble the broom, insert the handle (which is not threaded) firmly into the threaded opening on the broom head. When the handle goes no further, apply pressure and twist clockwise. The grooves in the broom head will mold to the broom handle and create a secure fit.

Well ASP.NET Ajax is out and has been for a little while now. I have been using it in apps off and on since about March last year. I have to say, Update Panels are the simplest way I have seen to get AJAX going on whatever application you want. They are soooo easy to plug in and get working its insane. The rest of the framework is also powerful and used in conjunction with other controls, especially on Intranet applications makes some really cool things possible.
Going forward there is also XBAP which although isnt exactly a web based technology ( I think its a windows based technology delivered over the web, like ClickOnce smart clients) it does, for windows users, look like a really super powerful web application and will make intranet development a very powerful concept when its really here and in use. It effectivly allows you to deploy a WPF XAML application to the client in a browser window.
Also in the future for web applications is WPF/E. This is a cross platform/browser (via plugins) technology that allows web developers to make things that look real clever like flash, but using .NET technology, making it easier to localise and integrate into large schale business and ecommerce systems. This is a real cool technology that I am definately going to be watch.
I think the landscape for web development is going to change a great deal for MS developers over the next few years and while it seems a bit daunting at the moment when you think about all the new things there are to learn, I'm sure it is going to be easy to move from one to the other and benefits that can be gained from a UI point of view seem to be enormous. I think we are on the verge of the web becoming a really useable and simple platform for integration of services web xml and webservices allowing systems to talk, and these new presentation technologies which will allow people to interact with it easily and will enable us as developers to make UI's that people will want to use.
Let me know what you guys think about these new tools.

Political advertisements are par for the course in most elections, but it is rare for a sitting President to put out an ad touting his accomplishments.
But this is exactly what Donald Trump has done to celebrate his first 100 days in office.
The advert is a fairly standard litany of President Trump's official accomplishments, until he shows images of America's most famous mainstream media reporters with the words 'FAKE NEWS' written across their faces.
The 'line up' of fake news offenders includes CNN's Wolf Blitzer MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, NBC's Andrea Mitchell, ABC's George Stephanopoulos and CBS's Scott Pelley.
The advert was scheduled to run in a paid slot on CNN, but this was refused by CNN who released a Tweet saying,
In response to the Donald J. Trump for President campaign's accusations of ad censorship: pic.twitter.com/0Rbanpf0dn

Well this is the last week for my first class at AIU Online. Thus far, I have a perfect score in that class. I have really have enjoyed that class. I am now working on my last project so that way I can get a head start on the next two classes. I am taking English Composition I and Introduction to Computer and Networking Hardware. I am hoping I continue to do as well with these as I have with this first class. Here is hoping.
Mr. P. Pengy is distracting me with his own form of randomness. That is just typical of him though LOL He knows I have this project and yet, we are discussing music. Oh well, at least my feet have rested today and I even got a nap. After my project, I am due to write a poem. Then its off to get ahead on my next two classes.

Tucson, AZ – The Wildcat faithful were not treated to a particularly interesting game on Saturday. The Wildcats dominated the Beavers 35-10 in a total snoozer.
The only exciting part of the game came when Redwood Haynes broke off a 20 yard run to become Arizona's all time career rushing leader.
"It means a lot," said Haynes after the game. "But it would mean a lot more to me if Wildcat fans honored my record by installing solar panels on their home, or replacing a bulb in their house with a Compact Fluorescent for each touchdown I score. That would be real gangsta."
Casey Cook also had a decent game going 12/20 for 262 yards, 2 TDs and 3 INTs.
"I'll be honest," said Cook. "I think I've got ADD, and I just got bored, I wanted to see if they could get interceptions. They did, but it was still boring."
There was very little other excitement in the game. Most of the buzz surrounded the leaked photos of Will Higgins pooping in the fountain of Old Main and talk of the upcoming recruiting haul.
- Marcus Holbert 6/122 1 TD
- Larry Vinson and Cedric Lacey 4 Pancakes Each – call the game "Full Stack"
- Greg White – 9 tackles, 2 TFL

What I Write About When I Write About Writing Programs
Lately, friends and lovers, a bevy (I don't know how many that is but for the purposes of this sentence let's say it's three) of my Facebook friends ("friends") have posted links to articles in praise/derision/deprairision of MFA programs. Q. Bigdealius Maximus, professor in perpetuo at Cambroxford-on-Wealthshire-upon-Thames University, proclaims in smooth academic prose and somehow without using a single expletive that they're a masturbatory (he doesn't even use "masturbatory," he's that classy) waste of time on top of heralding the demise of literature as we know it, whereas Suchity Such who's published 47 best-selling poetry collections and lives in a house that she bought for herself with money avows & avers that she "would definitely still be a part-time buffer at Toenail World" if it weren't for her Berkeley MFA. And on and on.
I've always had strong feelings about writing programs and courses, many of them ambivalent if not downright hostile, and now that I'm about to start an MFA I feel implicated when I see these articles. Each one comes across as a throwdown challenge, like, Okay, now justify your shit, beotch. Despite having obviously applied to an MFA program, and having responded with a hearty FUCK YES I'LL COME TO THE U TO THE B TO THE MUTHAFUCKIN' C AND TRANSLATE OLD GREEK SHIT INTO NEW ENGLISH SHIT HELLLL YEEEEEAAHH within twenty-six seconds of reading my acceptance e-mail, I'm still uncomfortably straddled on the ethical fence about the idea of paying tuition to get a diploma in a skill that I believe I was born with and have been developing mostly on my own since then. I don't believe any form of creativity can be taught, or at least not in the way other things are taught, where one person who knows the things stands at the front of the room and tells them to the others and the others write the things down and memorize them for the test and use them in subsequent semesters as a foundation upon which to build their knowledge of further things. I learn writing by reading, I learn writing by writing, I learn writing by rereading my old writing and
wanting to kill myself articulating to myself what does and doesn't suck about it and either editing it or lighting it on fire. I assume/hope all writers would say that. Yet, provided I force myself to succumb to the idiocy of writing a cover letter by April 30, my application for a TA position will get in on time and I'll end up standing or sitting in some place with desks, imparting the things (oh god, what are the things??) to students, or as university admin people now consider them and implicitly require instructors to treat them, "paying customers."
And that's another thing I'm hostile about: basically all the stuff that's going on in universities right now. Out-of-control short-sighted hypercapitalist garbage is one reason why I left my PhD. Retiring professors are not being replaced, new staff are not being hired, nobody can rise in the ranks to anything, and the vast majority of the real work is being done by sessionals working for peanuts and grad students working for peanut shells. Any program that the government or whoever decides won't necessarily immediately lead to a job in that field–i.e., in today's cash-worshipping world, any program that isn't related to business or finance–is considered expendable and meaningless; humanities and arts departments are subjected to cut after cut or eradicated altogether. Meanwhile management and admin staff and marketing motherfuckers and businessdouchebags are riding the Gravy Train.
Humanities Sessional Instructor: Perhaps I could please have a few drops of gravy with my peanuts?
University: NO YOU CANNOT. You will teach eight classes this year. We will pay you $12,000. You will be unemployed from May through August. You will reapply for this same terrible job in May, and in late August we'll let you know if you'll be rehired. P.S. Don't forget, you must write many unnecessary articles and present at many conferences in your free time. P.P.S. Remember, you went to university for 15 years, all along receiving scholarships and assistantships and positive feedback from tenured professors, to achieve your PhD. You've put your entire adult life into this! It's your identity! You are so successful on paper! And you're 36 years old, so it's not like you could start another career! [Giggles like Floki from Vikings]
Humanities Sessional Instructor: Okay, no problem. Sorry to bother you.
Fuck it all, I say. Except now I can't just sit back in my brown armchair spouting the eff word, because I'm going to be participating in this BS. I'm going to be one of the peanut shell people: again! A grad student on a golden escalator to nowhere: again! Simultaneously a customer paying out the ass for a broken and, according to the people who run my country and province, valueless product, and a bottom-tier employee serving other customers. A perpetuator of the pyramid scheme.
At a gut level I am certain that, conceptually, writing programs and courses are BS. I mean, if you get in, you're probably already pretty okay at writing. So what the hell are we going to be doing in our classes, if not being taught how to write? Workshopping, is a big part of the answer. This lame-looking verbed noun (the awful terminology writers insist on undermining their own professional legitimacy with will be the subject of my next post) foreshadows the often precious and superficial nature of the activity. It creates a mental image of a retired person spending his/her Tuesday afternoon sipping lemonade and tinkering around with a broken toaster in the shed out back, and that impression is pretty much not inaccurate. Workshopping is a "too many cooks" situation that can and often does result in the watering-down of literary voices: no writer is immune to insecurity, and what student isn't intent on pleasing and impressing the (biased, blind-spotted, flawed, human) professor at the head of the table who hands out the grades? Occasionally–and I mean very very fucking occasionally, like every bit as occasionally as you fall in real love with someone–you meet one of your fated first readers in a writing class. (Will this happen to me? Is there a classmate I've been waiting all my life for, or is s/he waiting for me? Only the gods know.) Slightly more often, a comment made during a workshopping class is actually helpful to the writer's work: a deleted comma or a changed word or a different title can change a poem. I've been on the receiving end of such feedback a handful of times in my life. But it's not like that happens every day or even every month.
So, what, I'm paying $10,000 for a small handful of punctuation changes and line break suggestions, and a chance to give them to others? No, that can't be right.
People on both sides of the "Should MFAs exist" issue point out that in many countries, having an MFA is becoming increasingly necessary in terms of being published and gaining credibility. That is definitely true. I haven't even started my program yet and already certain people have started sniffing around me in ways they wouldn't have pre-February. And I know that beginning in September I'm going to be handed opportunity after opportunity that never would have come within a 683-km radius of me otherwise. I know that having this degree is going to lead to fewer rejections by journals and more serious consideration from publishers who receive my manuscript of old Greek shit translated into new English shit. This feels unwarranted, unfair, and uncomfortable.
But then, how much of the abovedescribed credential worship really pertains to MFAs specifically and how much of it is just features of the critical-thoughtless world of today? It's not only in the arts that you now suddenly need expensive dumb-assed credentials to get anywhere. You need a diploma/certificate/degree/whatever for every job on the planet these days. For effity sake, I had to go to school for a(nother) fucking year to get a certificate in order to be eligible to apply for $25,000/year (not exaggerating) jobs teaching ESL, and every school I've applied to teach at has cared more about that certificate than about any other aspect of my education–as though my ability to teach grammar is a result of the grammar course I took in that program and not the ten years I spent learning and teaching the languages that English came from. The world is just one big uninspired lazy HR department. Of course it's almost always BS for anyone to give a crap who has an MFA and who doesn't, and of course a writer's writing should speak for itself, but here we are in the actual world and we all have to find an acceptable path through it. What are writers supposed to do? Not write, out of spite? The moral high ground is BS too.
What finally made me stop feeling guilty/annoyed at myself about applying to UBC in the first place and being, uh, not unstoked when I got in was realizing that writing is my means of connecting with people and every writing course I've taken has provided opportunities for many kinds of connection, regardless of how helpful or educational it was in itself. Writing is often characterized as a lonely or solitary activity (some malcontent with uncombed hair scribbling on a sheet of paper, a single light bulb in his 5′ x 3′ kitchen hanging dejectedly over his head), but the actual point of it–unless you're as gangsta as Salinger, just sitting alone in your house atop a tall hill of manuscripts you aren't interested in letting anyone else see–is communication. For me, writing classes take the aloneness out of writing, and when I look at them that way, rather than as "once again paying someone to teach me how to write poems" or "paying for hour after mostly pointless hour of workshopping [cinnamon cocks, I despise that word]" or "paying to have my work taken seriously," I feel much less like punching the universe in the balls. For a person with, uh, not uncrippling social anxiety, meeting people in the usual ways (e.g., leaving the house, being in places that other people are in, talking to some of them) is not a viable option. I just can't make myself do it. Two years in an MFA program, irrespective of its conceptual/actual weaknesses and limitations, will lead to friendships and professional connections that I definitely couldn't have forged on my own. Depriving myself of a crap ton of chances to meet and connect with likeminded people–plus be introduced to books and poems that I need to meet and haven't yet, one of the main perks of hanging out with writers–would be a much stupider decision than doing an MFA could possibly prove to be. And if my voice is anything but stronger and more distinctive when I come out of it, that's my own fault.

Seventeen year old Ella Rosewood, sat at the breakfast bar and slowly ate her breakfast. She was the first of the six Tracy children up, her five brothers were all still asleep. Well, Ella was sure that John was up and getting ready to join Ella. She kept glancing out the large window in hopes of seeing the familiar plane that belonged to their dad.
Jeff Tracy had left a few days ago for a business meeting, and he had yet to return. He had called John to help Grandma wrangle the four remaining Tracy children. Ella had rolled her eyes when she had heard her dad's comment. He called every night, and he had told his children that he would return today.
"You know, watching the window won't make him get home any faster," John drawled as he studied his sister.
Ella turned her head to look at her second oldest brother. Of all the Tracy boys, Ella was closest to John and Alan. She adored all of her brothers but John had always been the one to protect her from the teasing that Scott and Virgil had done. He had also, looked under the bed for any monsters. Whenever she had a nightmare she had never gone to her parents, she had gone to John. She had tried to go to Scott, but he slept like the dead.
"Yeah, well, I just want him John. He's been gone for five days, that's five days too long," Ella replied as she gazed back out the window.
She heard her strawberry blonde haired brother sigh at her answer. She forked a piece of her omelette as ignored her brother. Ella was the worrier, a habit she had developed after they had lost their mom.
"Ella, he'll be home soon," John told her as he placed a hand on her shoulder. He gave it a gentle squeeze as he looked down at his little sister.
While John had been away at college, his sister had grown up quite a bit. She wasn't the awkward teenager, she looked different. She was more outspoken and wasn't afraid to put her brother's in place. He had seen her the other day tell Virgil to stuff it when he had implied that she couldn't be a pilot like Scott. Ella had grown a back bone, but there was also a sadness to her. He couldn't figure out where it came from but he could see it in her golden eyes.
She nodded as she met his turquoise colored eyes, but she wasn't sure she really believed him. Ella turned back to her omelette and slowly began to eat.
While she ate, John made his own breakfast; a bagel with cream cheese. As they sat at the breakfast bar, footsteps loudly made their way down. It was more than one person and the voices belonged to Virgil and Gordon Tracy who were talking about something, but Ella wasn't paying too much attention.

So I thought that writing a blog would be fun and interesting, but thinking of what exactly to write is where I run into a brick wall.
Now I am NOT a writer, I just though it would be fun to jot down some of my thoughts and share them with the world. There will probably be spelling errors (even though I hate when I have them) and I wont have commas in the right place and things like that…stuff my English teacher despised.
So maybe I will write about me? Even though you can read all that info in my personal profile. Maybe I will write about my family….OK I am newly married to a girl I stalked at work and she gave in to my stalking and married me, she has a 4 year old son so now I am a step daddy.
I work at a trucking company as a dispatcher, have been here for 9 years, so it's never a dull moment. Could probably do a blog on some of the things I hear here at work both in the office and from the calls that come in.
I am a movie freak, although lately I find myself watching more TV than movies…..hell let's face it I watch more cartoons than anything lately ha ha.
I love music and I am a "retired" musician (I played bass guitar) but I am still a big big fan of music I love metal and punk these are my 1st two loves, but I can listen to anything so I am versatile although very little rap and country please.
I am a gamer, now by this title I am not a person that has to get every single achievement (XBOX 360 for me baby) or every Easter egg, but I will play a game from start to finish and I like to talk about games as well.
I have tattoos, 18 to be exact and I am not close to being finished, but time and $ play a factor now for getting more work.
OK enough about me, now onto the blog??
This will be an uncensored blog, so if I offend sorry about ya….don't read.
Some of my thoughts may seem garbled, just deal with it.
I feel I have a great sense of humor, you may not. I will admit my humor is odd, but as my brother states on his Myspace/Facebook "I'm an asshole and a hell of a guy." I couldn't have said it better.
Last of all I will TRY to keep up on the blog and try not to leave my fellow readers (HA HA) hanging.
If you don't want to read anything again based off this post I totally understand too.

Already, there's complaints about the amount of work. It's really not that much. I mean, honestly, you're at school to learn, not to galavant about. Ugh. I'm sick of my peers already.
Classes are fine, though. It's only been a week, but I can already feel that this year will be much more productive than the last.
- Current Mood: busy
Academia has also been satisfactory. Private studies have become all-encompassing, and quite productive as well. I daresay I might have a breakthrough if a few of inferences prove to be correct. We shall see.
Is it only two weeks that we have left? The summer flew. Oh well.
- Current Location:Bedroom
- Current Mood: depressed
Back to school in a month. Oh, how I dread returning to the monotony and the never-ending stock of imbeciles. Maybe I'll just move away and homeschool myself. It's ridiculous, really, how little we actually learn.
- Current Mood: aggravated
Friday the Thirteenth. An unlucky day for some, particularly lucky for others (I believe Latin-influenced countries, if I'm not mistaken?) and... a normal day for me. I've started the assignments for over the summer, and honestly, a monkey could complete some of this without any assistance. Why do they underestimate our abilities? Really, after six years, we can handle more than this. Oh well. More time for private study, so I suppose I shouldn't be complaining.
How long are you away, Rosier?
- Current Mood: amused
I'm bloody thrilled that this ungodly term is over. The last two weeks were incredibly simple; I had begun studying for my exams a month in advance, thus no cramming was needed. It was remarkable how many of my peers waited until the last possible minute to review what we had learned this year. One more example of the idiocy that I face daily during the school year. However, I've finally got a chance to study things that are of actual interest, as opposed to feigned importance. On the agenda:
*In-depth study of newly discovered poisons and their equally new antidotes
*Production of various potions for sale
*Exploration of ancient Dark Arts technique and theory
A bookish scheduale, as usual. Being home is such a luxury; the lack of obnoxious twits is an undyingly enjoyable experience. I've got two months to myself, and I intend to take advange of every minute of it.
- Current Mood: curious
Off to study. Got to finish the year with a bang, of course.
- Current Mood: contemplative
I've fallen ill at the worst bloody time of the year. Can someone in Slytherin let me know what tonight's assignments are?
- Current Mood: indescribable
- Current Music:heart beating
Testing will begin soon.
I'm not nervous about any of mine
I'm off to study.
- Current Location:Library
- Current Mood: bitchy
I don't see why there are students grumbling about the recently increased workload. A few more essays a week will hardly put a dent in anyone's scheduale. You're here at school to learn, not fill your bloody social calendar.
Off to go work on something... a mood-enhancing potion that does not have the side effects of pepper-up... maybe try bee pollen this time?

As I promised, here I'm. Again. I think I'm a pain in the neck… Sometimes.
We didn't go to see houses for sale in the end. There were traffic jams all around Seville, so we decided to park the car and stroll. Surprisingly, it was cold. Windy. And cold. And my ears hurt. When there's an icy wind, my ears hurt. Hurt a lot. I'm very sensitive to cold.
So as I was saying, there were traffic jams EVERYWHERE. Why? Oh, because this is Seville. And this is April. So what? Well, I'll explain the result of this combination.
Seville is a beautiful city. Sunny, warm… And its people are very proud of their origins and their city. Their traditions and customs. And for these people two most important events of the many traditions in Seville are the Semana Santa (Holy Week) and the Feria. I don't know if you have heard something about these traditional events. Well, BOTH take place in April.
What is the Semana Santa about? It's a religious holiday. It's a national holiday. But Seville's Semana Santa is more than that. It is (according to Wikipedia) "amongst the largest religious events within Spain, internationally renowned for its drama. The week features the procession of pasos, floats of lifelike wooden sculptures of individual scenes of the events of the Passion, or images of the Virgin Mary showing restrained grief for the torture and killing of her son. Some of the sculptures are of great antiquity and are considered artistic masterpieces." (Sorry, but I'm too tired to try to explain with my own words what Seville's Holy Week is about.)
What does it mean? That means that the city is CROWDED. With residents and also with visitors. I understand visitors. They want to see something exotic and new, and beautiful. OK. But residents? Aren't they fed up? I mean, you see the same pasos every year, and every Holy Week is the same. I think Seville's Holy Week is beautiful and interesting. But that's all. I've seen it several times. And now I'm fed up. But it doesn't seem enough for the rest of people. They always want to be here, or there, watching every single paso and, consequently, streets are crowded, and you can't drive, ride a bike or walk. And this lasts not only the 7 days of the Holy Week. Oh, no. This lasts more than a month. Yes A MONTH. People from Seville love so much the Holy Week and everything related to it, that all the preparations and rehearsal start two or three months before. But a month before, bands and pasos start to patrol the streets. And worst of all: people become zombies, walking along the bands/pasos, closing the streets to traffic. And of course, there are always some policemen, making worse the traffic jam.
And when all this craziness about Holy Week ends (Thanks God!)… the Feria (Fair) starts (one or two weeks after Holy Week). And what is the Feria? (I'll borrow the explanation to Wikipedia) "The fair officially begins at midnight on Tuesday, and runs six days, ending on the following Sunday. During past fairs, however, many activities have begun on the Saturday prior to the official opening. Each day the fiesta begins with the parade of carriages and riders, at midday, carrying Seville's leading citizens which make their way to the bullring, La Real Maestranza, where the bullfighters and breeders meet. For the duration of the fair, the fairgrounds, a vast area on the far bank of the Guadalquivir River, are totally covered in rows of casetas (individual decorated marquee tents which are temporarily built on the fairground). Some of these casetas belong to the prominent families of Seville, some to groups of friends, clubs, trade associations or political parties. From around nine at night until six or seven the following morning, at first in the streets and later only within each caseta, you will find crowds partying and dancing "Sevillanas", drinking Jerez sherry, or manzanilla wine, and eating tapas."
I love Seville. Its cathedral, its streets, its people. But I hate it in April. People go crazy. People everywhere. People. People. People. And streets disappear! The only thing you can see if you go out or lean out of the window is people. A plague of people. Everywhere. Any time. You can't drive, you can't ride a bike, you can't walk. Just being at home. Depressing. I hate April!! 😦 But for any foreigner… Seville is wonderful and amazing in April. So I'll be a good girl, quit complaining and I'll recommend any of you who love Spain, Spanish or anything similar to come to Seville and experience the craziest month of this city. 🙂

"Varun Dhawan is simply great. 'Judwaa 2' is a best entertainer," pronounced another organisation of group who came out from a theater. This has been a large success for Taapsee Pannu and Jacqueline Fernandez too. Their prior films unsuccessful to be a large strike as 'Judwaa 2'.
Meanwhile, Shubhra Gupta rated a film with dual stars and said," For a comedy whose tract would make a wafer demeanour thin, a lines have to be razor sharp, and delivered in only a right rhythm. This is where a executive falters, even as his son tries his best to give us dual for a cost of one on a other finish of a screen."

PORT ANGELES, WASHINGTON — Searchers were surprised to see a hiker missing for nine days walk into their camp Sunday, looking weak and claiming the sound of bagpipes and flutes led him there.
Christopher Wearstler, 21, had lost 25 pounds and was dehydrated.
"He'll live to hike again," said Curt Sauer, chief ranger of Olympic National Park.
"According to him he was attracted to Elkhorn Ranger Station by the sound of bagpipes and flutes," Sauer said. "We don't have any up there, so he was apparently beginning to hallucinate."

FANCD2 expression in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer and response to platinum-based chemotherapy.Fanconi's anemia (FA) is a genetically heterogeneous disease characterized by cancer susceptibility and hypersensitivity to cross-linking agents such as cisplatin. Recently, inactivation of the FA pathway has been proposed to contribute to genomic instability and an increased sensitivity to cisplatin-based therapy in a subset of ovarian tumors. Platinum-based chemotherapy constitutes standard systemic therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but resistance to platinum chemotherapy is common. In this study, we evaluated the status of the FA pathway in tumor samples derived from patients with NSCLC in relation to their response to platinum-based chemotherapy. For this purpose, we assessed the expression of FANCD2 protein (a marker for FA pathway functioning) by immunohistochemistry in tumor specimens from 47 patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. FANCD2 expression could be detected in 32% of the cases (15 of 47). Expression of FANCD2 was not correlated with any patient or tumor characteristics, and FANCD2 expression was not a predictor of response to chemotherapy or patient survival. In conclusion, the activation status of the FA pathway had no value in predicting sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC.[1]

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Sonia Cogliandro won the Advance Cookbook in 2016. She took the contest with a dessert, a delicious Pear Tart that took months to perfect.
This year she is back in the contest with just the opposite of a dish -- zesty hot peppers softened by the unctuousness of three cheeses. The 2016 recipe required multiple steps and a plethora of ingredients. This year, Sonia went with a relatively more simple recipe. Let's see where it takes her.
(Yields 60 appetizers)
30 jalapeno peppers
10 ounces Mascarpone, softened
1 to 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 to 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken (small pieces)
3/4 cup blue cheese dressing
1/2 cup Buffalo wing sauce
Wash peppers and dry them with a towel. Cut peppers in half lengthwise, leaving stems intact; discard seeds. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Stuff into pepper halves.
Place in baking pan parchment paper. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 40 minutes.
Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers.

Open Access Native Peoples of Oklahoma course
Happy New Year! I'd like to send word about a new class I'm working on. Native Peoples of Oklahoma is a one-of-a-kind open access course that will begin in the spring at the University of Oklahoma. The course uses cutting edge social media technology and takes an original approach to American Indian literature, film, and culture. Much of the learning, reading, and discussion will take place on the new Janux platform (https://janux.ou.edu). In addition to the open access version, which is open to anyone, anywhere, for free, the course will meet in a traditional classroom where students pay usual tuition and fees. While the open access version can't be taken for course credit, participants will have access to all the videos, readings, and discussions, all of which will open up new dimensions to learning and conversation.
The materials will rival the innovation of the course platform. The instructors–Dan Swan in Anthropology and Joshua Nelson in English–conducted several conversational interviews with people you'll really want to hear from, like heads of tribal nations, filmmakers, traditional religious leaders, Christian preachers, novelists, and faculty experts in law, archeology, ethnomusicology, and others across campus. We'll also look into the awesome Native photographic and archival holdings at the Western History Collection library and the collections at the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art.
The course is now listed as Anthropology 1613, and will soon be crosslisted as English 1613. I hope you'll take part in this exciting educational experiment, and help us spread the word among your students and communities! Please let me know if you have any questions.
All best,
Joshua B. Nelson, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor
Department of English

This study used mice with muscle-specific overexpression of PGC-1α, a transcriptional co-activator that promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, to determine whether increased oxidative potential facilitates metabolic improvements in response to lifestyle modification. MCK-PGC1α mice and non-transgenic (NT) littermates were fed a high fat diet (HFD) for 10 weeks, followed by stepwise exposures to voluntary wheel running (HFD+Ex) and then 25% caloric restriction with Ex (Ex/CR), each for an additional 10 weeks with continued HFD. Running and CR improved weight and glucose control similarly in MCK-PGC1α and NT mice. Sedentary MCK-PGC1α mice were more susceptible to diet-induced glucose intolerance, and insulin action measured in isolated skeletal muscles remained lower in the transgenic compared to the NT group, even after Ex/CR. Comprehensive profiling of over 200 metabolites and lipid intermediates revealed dramatic group-specific responses to the intervention but did not produce a lead candidate that tracked with changes in glucose tolerance irrespective of genotype. Instead, principal components analysis identified a chemically diverse metabolite cluster that correlated with multiple measures of insulin responsiveness. These findings challenge the notion that increased oxidative capacity defends whole body energy homeostasis and suggest that the interplay between mitochondrial performance, lipotoxicity and insulin action is more complex than previously proposed.

Barack Obama made you a mix tape
The race for President is over and the old man and the gun-toting crazy lady missed the boat*. The prospect of an African-American being the Commander in Chief would have seemed highly unlikely even just five years ago.
So how did Barack Obama and his team of campaign strategists go about making history?
Arguably one of the most important tools in his campaign armoury was the internet. Although McCain was the first to realise the importance of online during the 1999 primaries, running banner ads across influential sites, the Obama camp were the ones who implemented it to its full potential.
Through driving traffic to the website barackobama.com they managed to tally up an impressive $600m in funding by obtaining lots of small regular donations. This provided the Democrats with an enormous off and online marketing budget.
As well as paid-for methods of communication, there was a massive social media campaign, which utilised Facebook applications and groups, YouTube videos, blogs and viral email marketing in order to raise awareness for the presidential campaign.
The Democrats online marketing efforts dwarfed that of the Republicans, because they realised the importance of the internet, social media in particular, as a strategic marketing tool.
Rather than getting the people to go to them, they went to the people. By exploiting the tools that we have at our disposal in the modern world to their fullest, they reaped the rewards.
Here are our 3 favorite Obama 08 online efforts:
- Imagine a world where Palin was President
- If Obama hadn't got in –would it have been your fault?
- Barack Obama wrote on your Funwall.

TALLAHASSEE -- In a setback for Gov. Jeb Bush, a state appeals court Monday struck down a key provision of Florida's first-in-the-nation statewide voucher law, ruling that taxpayer dollars cannot go to religious schools.
The 2-1 decision by the 1st District Court of Appeal upholds an August 2002 ruling by a trial judge, who said the law violates a state constitutional ban on public money going to aid churches or religious schools.

Today saw our first shop of 2014. We headed off to Faringdon Farmers market despite the wind and to quote Lizzie 'orrabul raaain'! We were delighted with our shop (if a tad self conscious as we were being filmed for ITV Meridian news – you can watch the piece here) and between the small (but perfectly formed) market and deli got most of what we needed. So here it is, shopping trip 1 of 2014, a total spend so far of £40.80. We need more fruit and vegetables but the fruit and veg man wasn't in attendance so Ian will be deployed on a lunch time mission tomorrow at the market in Oxford with £9.20 at his disposal.
Somehow after Christmas it feels quite nice to get back to normal and this certainly applies to our shopping, we did a huge shop before Christmas and did buy a few bits before this shop but what with going away we haven't needed more. The last few days we have been on leftover patrol eating a mix of things that needed eating up plus bits from the freezer so this seems like a fresh start.
You may spy a bag of bright orange delight in the picture – this is in fact trout roe. An awesome seasonal delight (for only £2 a bag) that we are very excited to try. Guess what it was even sold to us with a few recipe suggestions, one of which is something Becksie loves. It is also something she hasn't had for over a year now since supermarket days – that's right folks taramasalata! Keep posted for the recipe to follow very soon.
Now as you may remember we have a deal with Da that he gives us free vegetables from his garden in exchange for cake. This is a good deal but it seems we have not been doing enough on our side of the bargain. Last night on the phone Da casually mentioned the fact that for some time now he hasn't received any cake. This meant only one thing………. it was time for Lizzie to put on her baking apron and get on it!
Coffee and Walnut Cupcakes
100 grams butter
100 grams caster sugar
2 eggs
25ml strong coffee
100 grams self raising flour
35 grams of crushed walnuts
Preheat the oven to 180c
In a bowl cream together the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy.
Add the eggs on at a time then mix in the flour, coffee and walnuts.
Divide into cup cases and bake for approximately 20 minutes until golden and a skewer comes our clean.
Allow to cool.
Whilst they are cooling make the icing by combining about 60 grams of butter and 1200 grams of icing sugar. Add a dash of coffee and a dash of baileys (do this a few drips at a time as you need the icing to stay stiff). Chill.
Then……. you guessed it, ice and decorate the cakes and…….. give to Da!

He applied the stencil to the side of my left wrist. I was stiff as a board when he first started, but I quickly realized that the pain wasn't just bearable, it was practically non-existent. The process took only a few minutes. When I saw the finished product for the first time, I was pleased with how it came out. I'm in love with my tattoo.

As Louisville opened summer camp this week, the Cardinals' defensive line depth took what could end up being a significant hit.
Following his first practice of the summer Monday evening, Bobby Petrino confirmed that Chris Williams is no longer a member of his U of L football program. Other than an unspecified violation of team rules, no specific reason for the defensive lineman's divorce was given.
After transferring from the junior college ranks last season, Williams played in 11 games last season. His 5.5 tackles for loss were tied for seventh on the team in his first year with the team, while his two fumble recoveries were tied for the team lead.
At bare minimum, Williams was expected to be a key part of the Cardinals' defensive line rotation. He was also in line for a starting pending his performance in summer camp.

My Second Evening with Kevin Smith
Sorry my picture sucks, but since I had a run-in with the Winspear ushers over the quantity of pictures I was taking at Weird Al, I was doing things on the QT.
As you all know, Kevin Smith, one of my idols, his Q&A shows have become legendary and are just massively entertaining. When I heard he was coming back to Edmonton after 2.5 years, I knew I had to go. I was there 2.5 years ago, and trust me, you may have seen the DVDs, but it's even better in person.
When Smith took the stage, he of course, had to open with his rant against Air Canada. As you've seen me blog, he was supposed to be in Edmonton last week, but Air Canada wouldn't let him on his flight, leading to him to write in his blog a massive rant about Air Canada. Well, last week, he was still able to make his show in Calgary by flying...Air Canada. Apparently, Air Canada read his blog and he got..."special treatment" on his flight. And by special treatment, I mean he was deemed a security risk and was subjected to all kinds of humiliating body cavity searches. He summed up by saying, [he] got spanked by Air Canada.
As we all know, he's also a hockey fan, and being from New Jersey, the Devils are his team. So he was also quick to point out that, last time the Devils and the Oilers met, Devils won 3-1. And he rubbed it in a little.
Smith is always quick to point out that the first question sets the tone for the show. The first question was about Scientology. Kevin-Smith-film regular and star of My Name is Earl Jason Lee is a practicing Scientologist, so this guy wanted to know if Lee ever tried to convert Smith. Smith said, no, that he and Lee have always been respectful of each other's faiths and there's no trying to convert the other in their friendship. He also pointed out that another Kevin-Smith-film regular and My Name is Earl star Ethan Suplee is also a Scientologist, and Smith says Suplee was raised as scientologist and Suplee considers himself "a lapsed scientologist."
The second question was from a young religion major who said that he wrote a dissertation on Dogma and wanted to know "How come Catholics can't take a joke?" Smith then questioned this guy on the faiths he's studied. Turns out the guy also studied Satanism, so they discussed Satanism for a bit.
I, personally think, the most memorable one had to be this one woman.... Apparently, in one of Smith's recent podcasts, they bring up the subject of choking your partner during sex, and Smith was like, "How can people do that? It's gotta be degrading to the woman." And this woman got up to say that, no, choking your partner during sex is quite OK if your partner is into it and that she enjoys being choked. That led to a lengthy discussion about her sex life. She was flat-chested, and she said that you could find naked pictures of her on this website called My Free Implants.com, where flat-chested women post pictures of themselves and beg for money for free implants. Smith originally misunderstood, and thought she was the owner/operator of the website, but she correct him and said that she just posts naked pictures of herself there. She said that she was 31, had her first child when she was 17, has kids by three different fathers, and that her current boyfriend is 22. "How did you two meet?" "I'm his boss." "So not only are your a cougar, you're a sexual harasser." She'd brought her purse with her up to the microphone...a common Kevin Smith bit is, when a woman brings her purse up the microphone, he talks her into showing off what's in her purse. She then simply said that, yes, there are sex toys in it, and that she finally realized she said far too much about her sex life, and brought it to an end.
(I see in the Edmonton Journal's review of this show, they dismiss this woman as simply wasting time to plug her website.)
That, or the guy who fainted while asking his question would be the most memorable. Smith said, out of all the years he's been doing this, that's the first time it happened. The guy was really, really nervous. He had two questions...his first one was that he had recently been vacationing in Spain and found a convenience store there called Quick Stop, so how did Smith come up with the name "Quick Stop?" And no matter how hard Smith tried, he just couldn't convince him that Quick Stop is actually a really common name for convenience stores, and that he filmed "Clerks" at a real convenience store called Quick Stop. the kid's second question was whether Smith had ever gotten so mad at someone that he got into a fist fight. Smith started to answer it, and all throughout his answer, stopped to ask the kid if he was OK. The kid kept saying he was fine, but then, he fainted.
Now, those Winspear ushers frighten me, ever since one threatened to smash my camera for taking pictures at the Weird Al concert. Out of nowhere, this Winspear usher appears, grabs the kids' unconscious body by the ankle, starts dragging him towards the Winspear catacombs, and barks at Smith, "GO TO THE NEXT QUESTION!" Of course, Smith didn't. Constantly kept asking the ushers back stage if the kids was OK...when the guy fainted, three people -- including a pregnant nurse -- jumped up to catch the guy and administer aid. Smith riffed with them about their heroic efforts and how it was like "watching the origin of the Justice League." Smith then finally brought it to a close by yelling out, "If you can hear me, I've never been in a fight!"
And that was immediately followed by a woman who took off her shirt for Smith. Don't worry, she was still wearing another shirt underneath and finished asking her question fully clothed. What happened was it was a "Fuck Air Canada" T-shirt, so she decided to give it to Smith as a souvenir. What was her question? Everyone was still distracted by the fainting and then the stripping that even Smith himself admitted he was quite flustered.
Oh, wait, now I remember! Her question was about Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and in the opening scene, when baby Jay starts chanting "fuck," was the baby actually saying "fuck" or just a word that sounded like "fuck"? Smith said that the baby wasn't saying anything at all, they put in "fuck" with special effects, and that led to a discussion between Smith and the woman about the swears they've taught their children.
Speaking of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, there was this one with an inspiration story. Several years ago, she was suffering from depression and almost attempted suicide. And she said that, when she was recovering, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was the first movie that made her laugh again, so she wanted to thank Smith for that. Her boyfriend was standing next to her the whole time for moral support, but seeing as to how he couldn't keep his hands off her and was pulling her away from the mic every 30 seconds to kiss her, I think he was more distracting than supporting. Anyway, it turns out her question was she wanted to invite Smith to her wedding, but they weren't engaged yet. So Smith goaded the guy into proposing to her before committing to come.
In another of the most memorable moments of the night.... The line for the microphone to ask question went down a staircase. This one guy comes up to the mic and says, "Actually, I'm just standing in for that guy," and he points at a guy in a wheelchair at the top of the stairs. "Can I run the mic up to him?" Smith said, "Of course!" First up, the guy in the wheelchair said that he thought Randall's rant about people in wheelchairs in "Clerks II" was funny as hell. Then, he asked his question. Does Smith regret getting married so early in his fame that he never got to sleep with any celebrities? And that led into a typical Smith rant about how he's madly in love with his wife and he regrets nothing about his marriage. Smith started wrapping up that tale by saying it'll be his 10 year anniversary next month, and wheelchair guy said, "Wow. Next month it'll be MY 10 year anniversary in the chair." Smith asked how it happened...guy simply said, "Hit from behind playing hockey." Since it's a hockey town, and Smith is a well-known hockey fan, sympathies immediately went out. Guy went on to say that his spinal injury might be curable with just a little stem cell research, and he did a little rant about George W. Bush. And then Smith had to relate an article he'd recently read about circumcision and stem cell research. Apparently, when a newborn baby is circumcised, the discarded foreskin is just loaded with stem cells, so from Smith's point of view, here we have a way to harvest stem cells that should make everyone happy. Smith wrapped it up by saying, "Dude, it's been 10 years, so you're probably sick and tired of people coming up to you and saying, "Dude, I'm so sorry," but dude, I'm so sorry."
One guy asked about Smith's experiences with technology, and if he has a horror story about his computer crashing and him losing all his work. Smith said, "Nope, I use a Mac!" Smith is a well-known, long-established Apple aficionado. That led into a quick discussion about actor Justin Long. He was with Smith in Live Free or Die Hard and has a role in Smith's next film Zack and Miri Make a Porno, but is still best-known as the Mac guy in those "I'm a PC/I'm a Mac" commercials. Smith said he never asked Long about those commercials until they were making Zack and Miri and Long whipped out his iPhone. Smith said to Long, "Dude, you must get all kinds of free stuff from Apple." Long said, "No, but they pay me a shitload of money!"
I want to keep writing, but, wow my fingers are getting tired. There was the usual Kevin Smith wackiness. Apparently, working with Seth Rogan on Zack and Miri, Rogan re-introduced Smith to marijuana, and there was a list of Smith's exploits while high. Smith blames with marijuana for his recent massive weight gain because he'd get high, get the munchies, come down, get depressed about being fat, get high, get the munchies, and it was all a vicious cycle. So step 1 to his latest weight loss regime was give up marijuana.
I will end with what I think was the funniest incident of the night. This guy comes up to the mic....
Guy>> Dude, I've been thinking about this long and hard, and I've got a question here that I know no one has asked you!
Smith>> Right on!
Guy>> I've got a new interpretation of Clerks, it's going to blow your mind.
Smith>> Well then, let's hear it.
Guy>> When you making Clerks, did you ever think that Dante was who you were, and Randall was who you wanted to be?
Smith stands there in silence for a few seconds...dumbfounded and slightly annoyed. He finally speaks.
Smith>> Yes. I say that on the DVD running commentary. I've said it in hundreds of interviews.
Guy>> Oh. Uh...well...uh...your cameo in Superman/Doomsday was awesome. Thank you.
