Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction Return to Cinemas this December/
Santa Monica, Calif. & Centennial, Colo., October 23, 2012, Celebrating Quentin Tarantino's filmmaking career spanning two decades, Miramax, NCM Fathom and IGN present two of his most acclaimed works "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction," each in theaters for only one night this December. "Tarantino XX: 'Reservoir Dogs' 20th Anniversary Event" will hit select movie theaters nationwide on Tuesday, Dec. 4 at 7:00 p.m. local time, and "Tarantino XX: 'Pulp Fiction' Event" will follow two days later on Thursday, Dec. 6 at 7:00 p.m. local time, with matinees in select markets. Each cinema event will include a special feature showcasing Tarantino's 20-year career and a selection of hand-picked movie trailers from films that inspired him as a filmmaker. Tickets for "TARANTINO XX: 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'Pulp Fiction'" are available at participating theater box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com or www.tarantinoxx.com. The events will be presented using new digital cinema projection systems in more than 625 movie theaters across the country.

Audiences across the country will be exhilarated by these gritty and innovative films that launched Tarantino's iconic career, in which he has received the industry's top honors including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, as well as nominations for both an Emmy and a Grammy award.
"There is no doubt that Quentin Tarantino's writing and directorial style has reinvented filmmaking as we know it," said Shelly Maxwell, executive vice president of NCM Fathom Events. "Join Vincent, Jules, Marsellus Wallace, Mr. Orange, Mr. Pink, Mr. Blonde and the rest of his infamous characters as they return to the big screen in this special two-night Fathom event."
"Reservoir Dogs" Released on Oct. 23, 1992, and named the "Greatest Independent Film Ever Made" by "Empire Magazine," Tarantino's directorial debut assembles four perfect strangers to pull off the perfect crime. But when their botched robbery reveals a police informant among them, their simple robbery explodes into a bloody ambush. Nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival (1992) and awarded the International Critics Award at the Toronto International Film Festival (1992), "Reservoir Dogs" is raw, violent and unforgettable.
"Pulp Fiction" Two years after his groundbreaking debut, Tarantino released "Pulp Fiction"; hailed by critics and audiences worldwide as a film that redefined cinema. Recognized as one of AFI's "Top 100 Films of the Last 100 Years," "Pulp Fiction," set in the basking sun of L.A., follows a burger-loving hit man (John Travolta), his philosophical partner (Samuel L. Jackson), a drug-addled gangster's moll (Uma Thurman) and a washed-up boxer (Bruce Willis), as their four tales converge in a story of violence and redemption. Honored with an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay (1994) and earning seven total nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director, "Pulp Fiction" has been listed as one of the best films of all-time by Time and Entertainment Weekly.
Miramax and Lionsgate Home Entertainment will release the "Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection," on Blu-ray; Nov. 20. The set contains eight films personally selected by Tarantino to illustrate the first 20 years of his career, plus two extra discs packed with over seven hours of exclusive, never-before-seen interviews and special features. The set also features striking, original artwork designed and illustrated by MONDO (www.mondotees.com). Tarantino's newest film, "Django Unchained," will be released in theaters on Dec. 25.

Kathleen Hall is one of the nation's noted experts on stress management -- she's consoled Katrina survivors, counseled victims of domestic abuse, and advised families in hospitals coping with cancer and AIDS. But she didn't always hold this title.
More than 20 years ago, Hall was a successful stockbroker on Wall Street, with a supportive husband and two healthy children. But the late nights, high-stakes pressure, and stressful commute wore at her over the years, until one day she snapped. She quit her job, retreated for six months to a remote cabin in Clarksville, Georgia, and spent the next seven years pursuing degrees in divinity and spirituality. (Read Her Full Story)
On her journey to a stress-free life, here's what she learned.
Hall adopted a powerful but surprisingly simple mantra -- SELF, an acronym for serenity, exercise, love, and food -- and started teaching it to others to great effect. These "four roots of real happiness" may seem almost too easy, but she insists they have a centering effect in even the worst of circumstances.
"It's these basic, ordinary actions that ground you," she explains. "By attending to your roots each day, you learn to stay focused and intentional -- and stay true to your design."
Making time for serenity, for instance, creates space in our lives for meditation and stress reduction; exercise benefits the spirit and mind as well as the body; love and friendship bring physiological and emotional rewards; and nourishing food, consciously consumed, feeds the senses in a deeply satisfying way.
It's these simple things that keep us balanced, she says, and they make up Hall's 10 secrets to a stress-free life.
Change the way you approach the bleak information you get from the media. Don't shy away from knowing the facts -- apathy can prove as damaging to your spirit as stress or depression. But use what you learn to become part of the solution. Send light, positive energy and prayers to those suffering, while finding tangible ways to get involved. You're in a position of power and control. Embrace the media -- look at it and use it as your classroom.

Standard ECMA-156
Private Telecommunication Networks (PTN)
- Signalling at the S Reference Point - Generic Keypad Protocol
for the Support of Supplementary Services (SSIG-KP)
2nd edition (June 1993)
This Standard defines the Keypad signalling protocol for the
purpose of supplementary service control at an interface at the
S reference point between a Terminal Equipment (TE) and a Private
Telecommunication Network (PTN).
The Keypad protocol operates in conjunction with the signalling
protocol specified in ETS 300 192. It is based on use of the Keypad
facility and Display information elements. While the procedures
associated with keypad invocation are specified in this Standard,
the allocation of the access codes used to request or indicate
a supplementary service is outside the scope of this Standard.
This Standard is applicable to TEs which are intended for connection
to PTNs, and is also applicable to the user accesses of PTNs.

Editor's Note: Meredith Gould, PhD, is a member of the External Advisory Board for the Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media.
From zero to gazillion miles per hour in weeks -- that's how quickly Pinterest, the latest social media platform has caught on. First adopted by artists, photographers, crafters, and do-it-yourselfers, Pinterest has swiftly captured the attention of marketers across industries. (For a healthcare industry round-up, see: HealthProTalk).
Still, I note a bit of head-scratching among healthcare social media enthusiasts who are busy asking: How could Pinterest be used to generate business and patient engagement? What sorts of content should we be pinning? What sorts of boards should we be creating? What are we to do in the absence of categories for health or medicine?
Great questions, but from my (multiple identity) perspective as an artist, e-Patient, and caregiver, I say there's nothing wrong – and a lot that's very wise – with simply focusing on this existing category: Art. I say it's worth considering the incalculable value of pinning images that can soothe mind and spirit while the body is under siege. I suggest we start asking how Pinterest might be used to enhance someone's healing process.
Sites like CaringBridge and CarePages make it possible for loved ones to deliver ongoing encouragement for patients and caregivers. Now, imagine using Pinterest boards (individual or shared) to enhance mood and outlook for self and others. Here are some examples from my own self-soothing account: Irises (paintings and drawings of my all-time favorite flower, that will last longer than real irises ever do) and Inspired Healing (images that remind me that while we may not be cured, we can always be healed). I visit Fractals, Spirals, Cells & bacteria, and Microscopicto remember there's beauty to be found in the natural sciences, something that really helps when I'm feeling disgusted with all thing medical.
If laughter is the best medicine, can beauty be far behind? Hopefully not.

Neil Young Celebrates Earth-Friendly Birthday in Brazil
Neil Young turned 66 years old on November 12th and celebrated by giving the keynote speech at the Sustainability Forum in São Paulo, Brazil. The focus of this fourm was on how to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and increase the use of renewable technologies, something Neil has been a champion of for several years now.
Young's 2004 'Greendale' tour was partially famous for the fact that all the semi's were run on biodeisel fuel sources. "Our Greendale tour is now ozone friendly" he said during a tour promotion, "I plan to continue to use this government approved and regulated fuel exclusively from now on to prove that it is possible to deliver the goods anywhere in North America without using foreign oil, while being environmentally responsible."
Young's appearance at this years Sustainabilty Fourm only reinforces the man's commitment to these ideals. During his 30 minute speech, Young said "we need to increase the use of biofuels in cars and cut the import of foreign oil."
In 2008, Neil had another 'Green' concept, The Lincvolt, which was a hybrid engine 1959 Lincoln. Several of the songs on his album that year, 'Fork In The Road', were about the auto.
During the ceremony in Brazil, Neil was serenaded by the crowd, but turned it into a birthday song to Mother Earth. Thanking the crowd he added "maybe next year I will come again and sing a song for you."
Forever shifting gears and driving on, that's why we love Neil! We celebrated his birthday in fine style over the weekend with a list of the Top 10 Neil Young Love Songs, at least one of which is about a car.

(covers information from several alternate timelines)
A witch was a woman thought to possess magical powers granted to her by a compact with the Devil, a powerful and evil being, through the use of witchcraft and black magic. They were similar in nature to wizards and warlocks.
The witch's traditional connection to evil has been used in many plays, novels, and stories for centuries on Earth; it has essentially been woven into the Human racial subconscious. And this was where the alien explorer Korob, living on Pyris VII, found it when he telepathically scanned a USS Enterprise landing party in 2267. Witches were among the eerie manifestations of his power; he created an illusion of three witches either to dissuade Captain Kirk or to test his character.
During Kirk and the landing party's encounter with the three witches, the spectral hags warned Kirk to go back, reminded him of the curse laid on his ship, and used doggerel to advise him that the consequence of remaining was death:
Following this, the shades faded from view (their cackling the last to go); soon after, gusts of wind battered the party and the fog thickened. Spock speculated later that the imagery, including the witches, was possibly calculated to frighten visitors, and might be the result of an attempt to probe Human minds that missed, reaching only the fears normally bottled up in the subconscious.
Korob and his colleague Sylvia, presented themselves as a wizard and witch, complete with ancient, fog-bound castles, magical implements and accouterments, and displays of power intended to suggest magic. Korob later told Kirk that all of it was created as a test of loyalty, bravery and character. (TOS: "Catspaw")
In actuality, tales of witches were fostered by the Megans. While on Earth, they were subjected to the Salem witch trials. (TAS: "The Magicks of Megas-Tu")
The Kahn-ut-tu were the local witch people of Neural, one of whom was Nona, who used her witchcraft to control others. (TOS: "A Private Little War")
After Admiral Norah Satie's failed attempt to expose a non-existent conspiracy within the crew of the USS Enterprise-D, Captain Jean-Luc Picard compared the situation to the, "torture of heretics and the burning of witches." (TNG: "The Drumhead")
In the mirror universe, Captain Sylvia Tilly was nicknamed "The Witch of Wurna Minor". (DIS: "Despite Yourself")
Also in the mirror universe, in 2371, Jadzia Dax called Jennifer Sisko a witch. (DS9: "Through the Looking Glass")

Assuming the voice command is well established, give the whistle command immediately followed by the voice command until the dog responds to the whistle. The new command needs to precede the old command for the association to take hold.

Last year I wrote a postabout my ancestor Henry Williams, asking the question, Was he really a Revolutionary War Soldier? like William S. Powell indicated in his book When the Past Refused to Die: A History of Caswell County, North Carolina 1777-1977 (Durham, NC: Moore Publishing Company, 1977).
Although Powell did not provide sources in his book, he did note that he donated all research materials to the Gunn Memorial Library in Yanceyville, NC. I called the Library and they said they did not have any of Powell's papers, but that they were probably located at UNC's Wilson Library. The Finding Aid for Powell's papers that are housed at the Wilson Library does mention papers relating to Caswell County History, but offers no specifics.
In the meantime, I happened to come upon the "Compiled service records of soldiers who served in the American Army during the Revolutionary war" – a set of microfilm put out by NARA that was scanned and digitized and put online for free public access on the Internet Archives website and can be downloaded for free here.
I downloaded 3 pages total.
The first page was the front of Henry Williams' service card.
It had the following information on it:
Henry Williams
Collier's Regiment
North Carolina Militia
(Revolutionary War)
Private | Private
Card Numbers:'
1. 37119798
2. 450594

Shannon Copyist
And then another researcher I've been working with found the following on footnote.com – a scan of the Pay Receipt that included Henry Williams, a Private, no. 16 down on the left hand side.
Pay Roll for Capt John Johnstone's Company in John Collin's Regiment of No. Carolina Militia Commanded by John Butler Brigadier General December 22, 1780.
No: 16
Name: Henry Williams

What Time Paid from: 8 Sept
What Time Paid to: 22 Dec
Number of Days: 106
Pay per day in Dollars: 1
Subsistence per month: 20
Total amount in dollars: 176
The existence of these documents is a good indication that our Henry Williams was a participant in the Revolutionary War, however, Powell's book said he was a "Colonel" and these documents mention only a "Private" Henry Williams, so there is unfortunately some discrepancy.
I guess the hunt for Powell's original source materials will continue. The Powell collection that is housed at the Wilson Library is huge. According to the finding aid, materials on Caswell County are in folders 121 and 16. I plan to peruse these folders in the new few weeks.

"The state's labor market is continuing to tighten," said Paul Turek, economist for the department. "The state U-6 unemployment rate, a broader measure of joblessness, also fell in October to a new series low.
The Employment Security Department released the preliminary job estimates from the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics as part of its Monthly Employment Report.
The department also announced that September's previously reported unemployment rate of 4.4 was confirmed. However, September's preliminary estimated gain of 4,500 jobs was revised upward to a gain of 8,300 jobs.
The national unemployment rate remained constant at 3.7 percent in October. In October 2017, the national unemployment rate was 4.1 percent.
Employment Security paid unemployment insurance benefits to 44,828 people in October.
State's labor force grows again
The state's labor force in October was 3,782,200 – an increase of 11,500 people from the previous month. In the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett region, the labor force increased by 2,900 over the same period.
From October 2017 through October 2018, the state's labor force grew by 25,600 and the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett region increased by 21,500.
The labor force is the total number of people, both employed and unemployed, over the age of 16.
Twelve industry sectors expanded, one contracted
Private sector employment increased by 8,800 while the public sector added 3,600 jobs in October. This month's report shows the greatest private job growth occurred in construction up 2,500 jobs, leisure & hospitality up 1,400 jobs, information up 1,300 jobs and financial activities, manufacturing and professional & business services each up 1,000 jobs.

Only the retail trade sector experienced a loss of 2,000 jobs.
Year-over-year growth exceeds 4 percent
Washington added an estimated 119,200 new jobs from October 2017 through October 2018, not seasonally adjusted. The private sector grew by 4.1 percent, up an estimated 112,100 jobs, while public sector employment increased by 1.2 percent with a net gain of 7,100 jobs.
From October 2017 through October 2018, all thirteen industry sectors added jobs.
The three industry sectors with the largest employment gains year-over-year, not seasonally adjusted, were:
- Professional & business services with 17,800 new jobs;
- Construction with 17,300 new jobs and
- Education & health services with 16,300 new jobs

Household Hazardous Waste is accepted free of charge at the Hazardous Waste Collection Center at the Glenwood Transfer Station. Call 541-682-4120 to make an appointment. Collections are scheduled on Thursdays and Saturdays.
The Special Waste Program diverts hazardous wastes from the landfill by offering hazardous waste disposal programs for households and small businesses. Even rural communities are served with mobile collections.
Special Waste Program staff also screen incoming loads at Lane County sites for hazardous waste and issue permits for special wastes such as asbestos, contaminated soils and difficult materials.
What is Household Hazardous Waste?
Many common household products contain hazardous ingredients that can be dangerous to children, pets and others. When they become wastes, these products can pollute ground water and streams if they aren't properly handled. Common household hazardous wastes include oil-based paints, stains, thinners and strippers, solvents, fuels and other automotive fluids, corrosive cleaners, lawn and garden chemicals, pool chemicals, fluorescent lights, ballasts and car care products. Look at labels for words like Caution, Danger, Flammable, Combustible, Corrosive, Caustic, Warning, Toxic, and Poison. Empty containers and dried latex paint should be thrown into the trash.
Reduce first! Consider avoiding hazardous products in the first place. Try these Alternatives to Household Chemical Products. This saves money and avoids the health hazards related to product production, use and accidents. Many guides exist and these are a few we've found useful: DEQ's Guide to Disposal and Alternatives and the Grow Smart Garden Guide. Consider making your own Greener Cleaner Kit.
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) contain mercury and should not be disposed in the garbage. Residential customers may take CFLs, and fluorescent tubes 4 ft or less, to many local hardware and lighting stores in Lane County for safe disposal. View a PDF brochure with a list of participating stores. Our Household Hazardous Waste appointment program also accepts CFLs and any size of tube from residential customers.

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
Girls, Girls, Girls, Hot for Teacher, You Shook Me all Night Long... Rock n roll and strip clubs have always had a symbiotic connection. So when infamous Hollywood bikini bar Crazy Girls started showcasing live rock bands on stage for its Rockabye Wednesdays, it was a no-brainer. The acts are always gritty and loud (Angus Khan, The Morlocks, Butcher Babies) and host Sergio Love hypes up the crowds between sets. Gotta love the cheesy decor here: mirrored walls, neon lights, sparkly curtains and, of course, stripper poles, around which the bands set up their gear. Its a bikini bar (no nudity), so even on non-rock nights, the vibe is fairly unintimidating (they do have the requisite private room and grind-a-lot lap dances, though). The gals here move to the usual sound track of classic rock, hip-hop and pop every other night, but Wednesdays, the power of live riffs and drumbeats seem to have an almost tribal effect on the ladies, or maybe its just the swagger of crooning rock dudes/chicks prancing on stage with them. Either way, be assured, Rockabye offers the sexiest live-music hump night in Hollywood, hands down. 1433 N. La Brea Ave., Hlwyd. (323) 969-0338. Lina Lecaro
Tiki- and Polynesian-themed eateries and bars were once the height of fashion. Today, they are a tragically nigh-extinct breed. (Beloved cocktail shack Tiki-Ti continues to thrive on Sunset by remaining small and retaining demand; even flagship behemoth Trader Vics finally shuttered its legendary Beverly Hills location, though a modern-looking location opened at L.A. Live.) They simply dont make em like Bahooka Family Restaurant anymore, and the city of Rosemead east of downtown along the 10 freeway is a perfect out-of-the-way excursion for a taste of suburban tiki cool. None of the taste treats at Bahooka (which opened in 1967) are going to blow your mind; the big platters of ribs, corn on the cob and coleslaw are tasty if not singular, and the mai tais and scorpion bowls arent as finessed as some. (This grog will get you good and tipsy, though.) Whats brilliant about Bahooka is the atmosphere a dimly lit nautical theme with the classic blowfish-and-glass-floats tiki decor and its famous 100-plus fish tanks, with one separating virtually every table in the house. A real throwback to groovier times. 4501 Rosemead Blvd., Rosemead. (626) 285-1241; bahooka.com. Nicole Campos
Bingo, boy toys, beer and beef, anyone? Hamburger Marys may be the only place on earth where you can enjoy all of these at once. Its Legendary Bingo nights on Wednesdays and Sundays aint your grandmas game scene, but if you took her here, we bet shed never want to leave. Fab prizes, fabber getups and celeb guests calling out numbers make this one a winner whether your card gets filled or not. Other nights, Marys hammy hostess roster features some of the finest drag and trans personalities in town: Calpernia Addams seductive Unreal cabaret show, Saturdays saucy Wendy Ho Ho Show, the big-voiced Boofant Sisters, the rockin vox of Detox on Friday. Marys may be a chain restaurant (the menu is packed with notch-above-TGIFridays artery-clogging fare and monstrous fruity cocktails), but the WeHo location is more club than café: studly waiters and bartenders, pumping dance beats on the speakers, disco balls in the bathroom and the coolest check tray ever: a silver sequined high-heeled shoe. Size 12, natch. 8288 Santa Monica Blvd., W. Hlywd. (323) 654-3800. Lina Lecaro
Its been a long time since comedian Lenny Bruce performed and got arrested on obscenity charges at The Troubadour in 1957, but the West Hollywood live-music venue on Santa Monica Boulevard still packs em in and pours drinks freely with a sense, to quote an old Neil Young song, that its better to burn out than fade away. Patrons and rockers hang out at the wood-paneled bar in front, maybe grab a seat at a black leather booth, and wait their turn to perform or to catch the band in the surprisingly small and intimate showroom. Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young and Stephen Stills made their live debuts at the Troubadour in 1966, and comedy legend Richard Pryor recorded a live album there in 1968. The list of debuts and historic moments is long: Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Neil Young, Elton John, Billy Joel, Randy Newman, Tom Waits, John Lennon, Bruce Springsteen, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Joe Strummer, The Strokes and many others have a connection to this 53-year-old establishment. If theres a Hall of Fame for rock venues, the Troubadour, founded by the late Doug Weston, would be inducted. 9081 Santa Monica Blvd., W. Hlywd. (310) 276-1158, troubadour.com. Patrick Range McDonald
Before indie acts du jour score a headlining spot at Spaceland or the Echo or blog-beloved FYF, youre likely to catch em on Part Time Punks stage, Sundays at the Echo. Five years strong, the live music and DJ dance party from Michael Stock (manning Punks solo since his partner split last year) remains both a big new-band breaker (No Age, Mika Miko, Abe Vigoda, Warpaint, Dum Dum Girls, Yacht, etc., all played PTP when they were unknowns) and one of the best spots to celebrate musical innovators of yore (the Slits, the Chameleons, the Homosexuals, the Nightingales, the Urinals and countless more reunited or re-formed to play here). Tribute nights celebrating better known artists like the Smiths and the Cure bring out new wave/Goth geeks, too. Post-punk, no-wave, Indie-pop essentially the seminal sound swell that emerged from 1978 to1984 is boldly and lovingly put into context here with emerging art-rock and dance acts, a combo that has also made Stocks KXLU radio show shamelessly inspired by John Peels Peel Sessions revered among music heads. Clearly, the appeal of punk you can dance to has gone beyond any one hood or clique or style, and PTP is a big reason why. 1822 Sunset Blvd., Echo Park. parttimepunks.com. Lina Lecaro
Were not gonna bullshit ya. Hop Louie is not a destination for great Chinese food, especially in a city that actually does have great Chinese food. But Hop Louie is an experience, a trip, a cultural artifact. And in the right state of mind, its just plain fun. In the middle of Chinatown since 1941, Hop Louie has atmosphere to spare: a black lacquered-wood bar and formidable hanging-lantern lighting fixtures; a wall of signed celebrity headshots and a cast of eccentric regulars; a bartender whose encyclopedic mixology skills blend with an acidic wit and a comically imposing, multitiered pagoda structure over the entrance, Hop Louie is what you want in a comfortable, old-school, kitschy/loungey Chinese restaurant. Drinks are cheap and strong; the food of the crab rangoon/egg roll/fried rice variety is decent; classic pop oldies fill the jukebox. Not only that, but its got two floors, which means even more Hop Louie. 950 Mei Ling Way, Chinatown. (213) 628-4244. Adam Gropman
Youve driven past the cylindrical Angeleno Hotel on the 405 at Sunset Boulevard a thousand times without realizing the penthouse is the West Lounge & Restaurant, which offers a Wow! view in a sleek, dark setting catering to stylish European travelers as well as locals who love its happy hour Monday through Thursday. Lounge manager Michael Burnett brags, rightly, that every seat has a great view: downtowns skyscrapers, Century City, Catalina on a clear day. The curving lounge and bar have floor-to-ceiling windows, looped, blown-glass chandeliers, and sofa boxes to fit 20 of your best friends. Un-rushed hour means $7 mojitos, $4 beer, $5 wine and $4 appetizers. Standout regular bands are Ouí 3 (alternate Wednesdays), whose funk jazz and world music quietly drifts through, and Cross Heart Project (Thursdays), whose cabaret standards often feature well-known guests. Strip Down Tuesdays is open mike. No cover. Park free on the street, or $7 with bar validation. 170 N. Church Lane, W.L.A. (310) 481-7878 or (310) 476-6411, westatangeleno.com. N. Jenssen
Many women dont enjoy strip clubs. This can be an issue for guys who enjoy seeing their girlfriend face-to-chest with another womans boobs. In this perverted dilemma, the answer is Jumbos Clown Room, an intimate venue that for more than four decades has allowed its female employees to call themselves dancers without patrons rolling our eyes behind their backs. These talented and seductive but non-nude dancers attack the on-stage pole with attitude more akin to grrrl-power rock stars than plastic Hollywood hustlers. Strip club naysayers may say female dancers dont look real and project an unattainable sexual fantasy. But not at Jumbos. Here the girls embrace and flaunt their individuality. Female patrons are attracted to the dancers down-to-earth sexual empowerment and male customers are hooked because their punk-rock, girl-next-door beauty makes us think we could actually get them (we cant). In truth, Jumbos is less a strip club than a risqué dive bar. Its a locals-only bikini joint for hipsters, bikers, off-duty celebrities, couples, co-workers and, most of all, chicks. And since the music the dancers perform to is straight out of your record collection and not Kid Rocks greatest hits, your girlfriend wont even notice how hard youre staring at other women because shes doing it, too. 5153 Hollywood Blvd., Hlywd.

A crucial scene in the movie Collateral features Tom Cruise taking his de facto hostage, Jamie Foxx, to a cool, laid-back jazz club, where they listen to an authentic, tastefully smooth combo before Cruise invites the band leader over to their table for conversation, and then calmly blows him away. That scene was shot at Quon Bros. Grand Star Jazz Club, which occupies the same Chinatown pedestrian plaza as Mountain Bar and Hop Louie. While cold-blooded assassinations do not actually occur at Grand Star, fine music does. The first floor features strong, seasoned jazz players while the second level is where ace hip-hop and R&B deejays work kids into a dancing frenzy. The delightfully diverse city crowd is known for its generally good vibes and the DJs, with their specific theme nights, have developed devoted followings. The decor is understated, vintage lounge, appropriate for a place that has been around since 1946. Drinks are strong and cheap. 943 N. Broadway, Chinatown. (213) 626-2285, grandstarjazzclub.com.

Run by curators Eric Nordhauser and Hazel Hill McCarthy, Show Cave is easily one of this citys most eclectic and imaginative venues, hosting everything from obscure performance-art videos to deafening hardcore bands. The one thing Show Caves bookings have in common is uninhibited experimentation the kind of free-for-all, get-yer-freak-on weirdness encouraged by a long line of great art enthusiasts. Nordhauser and McCarthy take their cues from folks like Andy Warhol and George Kuchar, adopting a legacy of open-armed acceptance of the art worlds more raggedy fringe. The result is always thrilling, a schedule of events where one is guaranteed to be, at the very least, gape-mouthed, if not elated. Show Cave is the first stop for artists from both L.A. and around the globe seeking a venue that doesnt limit its productions to the straight and narrow. Their newish Eagle Rock space, housed in a historic building and enhanced by Nordhauser/McCarthys reimagined interior, is the spot to go if youre looking for something youve never seen before but will most definitely want to see again. 3501 Eagle Rock Blvd., Eagle Rock. showcave.org.

We all know that Santa Monica and the Far Westside aint got no soul, right? That everything west of Centinela has traded its authentic funkiness for safety, comfort and that overrated sea breeze? Harvelles in Santa Monica torpedoes that impression. Harvelles is a speakeasy-ish old club decorated in mostly black and red and dripping with cool-cat, uptown fanciness from another time. This Westside institution, which dates to 1931, has some of the rawest, heaviest, most soulful R&B, jazz and blues-related sounds anywhere in SoCal. Those include The Toledo Show, a smoky, surreal music/cabaret/dance revue in which a very dapper, captivating cat named Toledo leads an ace band and oversees a small troupe of sexily clad dancers who writhe on the floor while he alternates between crooning and reciting Beat-style poetry, all with Miles Davislike intensity. If that aint soul, nothin is. 1432 4th St., Santa Monica. (310) 395-1676, harvelles.com. Adam Gropman
There is a plethora of stand-up nights in L.A., but few cater to the queer crowd like the weekly show Drunk on Stage. Located inside a small space in Akbar, a laid-back, unpretentious bar in Silver Lake, talented queer and queer-friendly comics perform every Tuesday night at 8 p.m. before a welcoming crowd. The dimly lit, Arabian-themed room makes you feel like youre watching comedy in some intimate dive in Dubai. Bruce Daniels hosts the show and often mentions, during his opening set, the trials of hooking up with straight men. He says the men insist theyre not gay while still making out with him. Past esteemed alums of the show include Margaret Cho, Maria Bamford and Kathleen Madigan. So if Comedy Death Ray is sold out at the Upright Citizens Brigade, head a few miles east to catch some real alternative comics try their best to tickle your funny bone or boner, as some of these comics might say. 4356 Sunset Blvd., Silver Lake.

5 Simple and Unique Content Writing Tips to Win Over Your Customers
Content marketing is catching up a lot in recent times and more tactics such as social media and other tools are increasingly being used to distribute content online. More and more businesses have started spending on content marketing in the recent years than what it was in the past.
Content marketing involves the use of more effective strategies to lure potential clients. With enough application and practice, apt techniques of marketing can be implemented so as to increase the customer base. If you wish to be noticed you should take efforts to deliver the content or products that are much demanded by your customers!
1. Include quotes after converting them into attractive images
You can use sites such as Quozio for getting crisp, clear and free images to use along you're your content. You need not spend a lot on high-quality stock photos every time. Instead you can include quotes from sites such as Brainy Quote and save the image using the tools available on Quozio. In this way you can make your site look attractive without spending a great deal of money.
2. Develop content using TV shows or movies
TV shows and movies have high search volume and can pull a huge amount of traffic online. These are the main reasons why you should include them to expand your content. You can also research and learn about the best template titles to use to boost traffic to your site!
3. Grab the attention of others by talking about content on social media
You should try to contribute something valuable rather than making noise by using the social media tools such as Twitter and Facebook. New online marketers are guilty of using outdated techniques for promoting their business. They just keep bragging about the greatness of their products several times instead of offering something new or talking about the USP of their products. By engaging the audience and offering what they want exactly you can build a rapport with them by grabbing their attention. It's not an easy task, but in the end it all comes down to sounding authentic and communicating in the right manner.
You can discuss your content in social media by asking questions such as:
- Did the post include valuable information?
- Are there any other suggestions you wish to make?
- Did you find what you want?
People respond better to this approach since they get a feel that you are not intending to promote your website! Discussing content on social media can enable more people to learn about your offerings and also gives you a chance to improve upon what you have already.
You can start your discussion by visiting sites such as LinkedIn and Google+ Communities. Sites such as these have more vibrant users who can go a long way in making connections with you. You can also use sites such as Google+ Hangouts to get to know multiple users at the same time!
4. Select and Post the best Content
When you are unable to find something new to say about your business, you can select the best content that is relevant for your article and post the same on your article instead. Like an art curator, you can look for relevant content online (infographic, article, video) about your topic and post them online. Posting the best content (not necessarily in terms of rankings) will offer insight and useful advice to viewers and help them to stay for a longer time online.
5. Convert your articles into slideshows
You can get more leads or traffic online by using e-books and infographics along with your content. You can also focus on the visual aspect and convert content into a slideshow to lure more visitors to your site. After turning your content into a slideshow you can have it hosted on Slideshare before embedding it on your post or article. Since a vast majority of people prefer to view content instead of reading it, using this method of content marketing can lead to positive results within a short time frame.
Unique, relevant content is undoubtedly one of the best ways to promote a good website. Users will enjoy a pleasant experience by having access to unique or high quality content online. Since the demand for fresh content is never ending and content writers may find it a herculean task to churn out fresh content all the time, they can use any of the aforesaid measures to make their dreams a reality.
Other quicker ways of doing this such as publishing nonsensical or zero value content or publishing other people's content will not lead to the desired results in the longer run. While shady techniques such as these can result in short-term gains, an honest strategy of unique, high quality content creation will definitely pay rich dividends in the long-run.

The 2011 Compass Rose Geocoin® is about the critical importance of the sun and navigation. Navigation by the sun was practically second nature a thousand years ago, even though it was not as accurate without special tools as today's methods. It was very important to know where the sun tracked across the sky and exactly where it would rise and set depending on the season. Since the 1700s, knowing the sun's declination was imperative to calculate longitude. Knowing how to gain longitude was very important to calculate accurate navigation and map making.
The compass rose sun design on the 2011 Compass Rose Geocoin was derived from a map made in 1613. The map covers half of the world on the Atlantic side. Normally, maps containing a great level of artistic detail were not accurate and made only for sale to the general public as display pieces. Ship's captains knew better than to use these kinds of maps; however, this map was not only artistic but also informative.
If you look closely at the different versions of the 2011 Compass Rose Geocoin, you will notice there are two different front side metal designs. One has raised metal design and the other has a recessed metal design. Not only did we make different versions with different colors and finishes, but we added another aspect of using two front dies which truly makes a variety of versions that are very different from each other.
The back of the geocoin illustrates the Copernican astronomical system. It shows the tilt of the earth at its equinoxes along with other planets. The outer ring outlines the zodiacs according to how the constellations are aligned with the sun during the year. Each planet in the coin is represented with a Swarovski gemstone.
Each coin version is named after different aspects of the sun's positions:
- Midnight Sun (polished nickel, recessed front) - Represents when the sun is at its highest or lowest point in the sky (winter and summer solstices) when the sun shines for 24 hours a day over the frigid winter landscapes.
- Daybreak (black nickel, raised front) - Signifying when the sun first rises at the horizon and marking that location to gain an idea of your latitude based on the season.
- Eclipse (black nickel, recessed front) - Only occurring during a new moon, solar eclipses have played a significant part in referencing historical and religious events. The Chinese scientist Shen Kuo, 1031-1095 AD, also used eclipses as his reasoning for why planets were spherical instead of flat; an understanding that became vital for accurate map making.
- Dawn to Dusk (polished gold, recessed front) - Tracking the sun from the morning to the evening is key to good navigation and knowing its ecliptic as each day passes through the seasons.
- Twilight Edition (polished gold, raised front) - Related to the sailor's weather predicting phrase of, "Red sky at night, sailor's delight."
- High Noon (antique bronze, recessed front) - LE version made available to the public. This version represents true high noon when the sun is at its highest point in the daytime sky. This position of the sun is the most critical when taking sextant readings to calculate latitude.
- Dawn's Early Light (polished gold, raised front) - Private LE version.
- YemonYime Version (green coloring) - LE version made for the artist who significantly helped with the artwork for this coin.
- Measures 2" in diameter
- Imitation hard enamel colors
- Two different front side dies
- Swarovski gemstones
- Trackable on Geocaching.com
- A unique icon shows on your profile when you log a discovery with the LE coins having their very own
Regular Version's Icon
Limited Version's Icon
Presales started in Nov 2011 and ended Dec 2011.

No Serious Injuries in Crash into Lake Mitchell
MITCHELL, S.D. (AP) - A Mitchell woman escaped serious injury when her vehicle crashed into Lake Mitchell over the weekend.
Authorities say 19-year-old Jessica Priem's pickup truck slid off an icy road Saturday morning, went down an embankment, hit a tree and went into the water. The front tires broke through the ice but Priem was able to climb out to safety.
The Daily Republic reports that Priem was taken to a hospital to be checked after complaining of a headache.

LATE on Saturday, Feb. 8, news broke of the recall of 8.7 million pounds of beef that had come through a Northern California slaughterhouse. Social media buzzed with tweets and posts pronouncing it the latest example of a dysfunctional industrialized food system incapable of producing safe meat. "Buy local!" "Know your farmer!" "Eat grass-fed beef!"The problem was that this slaughterhouse, the Rancho Feeding Corporation, didn't handle only commodity beef. (More...)

I have decided to participate in National Blog Post Month (NaBloPoMo) for the month of June. It is basically a group of bloggers that commit to posting once a day for a month. There is a theme given by the hosts over at BlogHer, and this month's theme is FAN.
Mostly meaning "what am I a fan of?" and they have prompts to help get inspired for the day, though I do not have to write about what is on the prompt, nor do I have to stick with the theme for all of my posts. Since this is primarily a dessert blog, I intend on posting about desserts, but since this is a challenge to get me to post every day, I might use the prompts, which might stray away from the desserts. Since this is my first post, I have decided to make a list of all of the things I am a fan of. So here it is, post #1, a list of what I am a fan of (in no particular order):
- Family and friends. Of course I put this one first! These people mean the world to me and I would not be quite the person I am today with out them there for me.
- My education. I am definitely grateful for everything that I have learned both in school and in life. I am always learning and strive to learn as much as I can in every situation.
- Chocolate. As it says on a small plaque I have in my room, "When in doubt, smother in chocolate". In the case of making desserts, it works; chocolate goes with everything.
- Baking. It is a stress reliever and something to concentrate on when you have so many other things on your mind. It has also become a way of life for me, a quote that I found on a calendar a long time ago: "A true chocolate lover finds a way to accommodate his passion and make it work with his lifestyle." (by Julie Davis of the L.A. Times) I think this quote goes for anyone with a passion for anything. If you are passionate about something, make it part of your lifestyle. This is what I have done with baking.
- Making new friends. As with number one, above, I enjoy meeting new people that mean a lot to me in my life. They inspire me to learn/do new things and even if I have trouble keeping in touch with them over the years, if they taught me something new, then they are a valuable friend.
- This blog and the blogging world. I started writing this blog because I wanted to share recipes and baking techniques with the world around me. Whether that meant just family and friends, then fine. But through other blogs I've read, I've discovered that there are many others like me who like a sense of community, even a virtual one.
So those are just some of the things I am a fan of. I think this is a short but meaningful list and it definitely continues to grow. I hope that through this challenge I will learn more about myself and the things I really cherish in life.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's women's basketball team defeated visiting UMass Boston, 57-49, in the first game of a Little East Conference doubleheader at the Tripp Athletic Center Tuesday evening
The Corsairs grew a 29-19 halftime lead into a 20 point cushion and held off a late rally by the Beacons to notch their fourth win of the season and first in conference play.
UMass Boston closed to within 29-25 in the opening minutes of the second half but some stifling man to man defense and torrid shooting blew the game wide open. Freshman guard Megan Sheehan (Carver, MA/Carver) ignited the run with back to back three pointers, freshman forward Erika Bornemann (Canton, MA/Canton) hit back to back layups and another Sheehan three from the corner made it 46-29 in under a six minute span. Junior guard Stephanie Houtman (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford/Bridgewater State) hit a jumper in the lane and senior guard Tashauna Ashmeade (Hyannis, MA/Barnstable) nailed a three from the wing, giving the Corsairs their largest lead of the contest at 53-33 with just over five minutes to play.
The Beacons mounted their comeback fueled by a layup and two free throws from sophomore forward Elizabeth Dow (Marshfield, MA/Marshfield), a three pointer and layup by freshman guard Kendra Mosley (Indian Head, MD/Henry E. Lackey), a three pointer from freshman forward Sarah McAdams (Portland, OR/Grant) and layups by junior forward Molly Rattigan (Dorchester, MA/Fontbonne Academy) and sophomore guard Elisa Ogawa (Yamanashi, Japan/Boston Community Leadership Academy), pulling the Beacons to 53-49 with just 37 seconds to play.
UMass Boston would take their chances by putting the Corsairs on the free throw line but UMass Dartmouth answered hitting all four of their opportunities down the stretch to hold on for the victory.
"UMass Boston made their comeback due to rebounding and second chance points. They are a good team but we responded to the challenge," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Amanda Van Voorhis. "We looked great against the zone, we moved the ball well and we were ready. Our starters logged a lot of minutes and we made some mistakes down the stretch but we are pleased with the win."
The Corsairs starters played all but eleven minutes while of four them reached double digits in points. Houtman led the way with 16 points, Sheehan had 15 points, all from behind the arc and Bornemann chipped in with 14 points. Ashmeade notched a double-double with 10 points and 15 rebounds and freshman guard Keneisha Debnam (Dorchester, MA/Minuteman Regional) also had a big night in the rebounding department pulling down 15. The Beacons were led by Mosley's game-high eighteen points and Ogawa joined her in double figures with 12 points. Rattigan led the way on the boards with 13.
UMass Dartmouth out-rebounded the Beacons, 57-41 and held UMass Boston to just 27.5% shooting from the field.
The Corsairs improved to 4-12 and 1-5 in the Little East Conference with the win, while the Beacons fell to 11-5 and 2-4 in LEC play with the loss. UMass Dartmouth will return to action when they host Plymouth State in the first game of a Little East Conference doubleheader Saturday. UMass Boston will host Keene State Saturday.

The study focused on 46 out of 153 total patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil who received treatment between 1997 and 2012 at Washington University in St. Louis. Tumor location was well-documented in the 46 patients who received unilateral radiation therapy (RT), with 40 patients (87 percent) having lateralized (located on one side of the throat) primary tumors; two patients (4 percent) had non-lateralized tumors, and in four patients (9 percent), lateralization could not be determined retrospectively. The patients underwent surgical resection and postoperative intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), with 30 patients also receiving concurrent chemotherapy.
Of the subset of 46 patients treated unilaterally, 72 percent were men, and the average patient age was 59. Sixty-one percent of patients were current or former smokers. The cancer stage/classification for the study group was: TX = 2 percent (1); T1 = 44 percent (20); T2 = 41 percent (19); and T3 = 13 percent (6). The patients' stages of lymph node involvement were: N0 = 11 percent (5); N1 = 13 percent (6); and N2 = 76 percent (35). The prescribed radiation doses were 60-66 Gy to the postoperative bed and involved neck; and 52-54 Gy to the elective neck in 30-33 fractions using a simultaneous integrated boost technique.
The median follow-up period was 2.8 years (range was .4 to 8.7 years). There were no local or regional recurrences reported, meaning the cancer did not recur in the adjacent nodes or the original location of the cancer in any of the patients. Distant metastasis, meaning the cancer spread from the original tumor site to distant organs or lymph nodes, developed in four (9 percent) of the patients. Two patients developed second primary (new) cancers.
"All treatments for cancer — surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy — although effective, can cause temporary and/or permanent toxicity which can affect long-term quality of life," said study author Wade Thorstad, MD, chief of Head and Neck Services and associate professor of Radiation Oncology at Washington University School of Medicine. "Our research indicates that for appropriately selected patients with tonsil cancer, the volume of radiation therapy necessary to control the cancer can be significantly reduced, therefore reducing the side effects and toxicity of radiation, while maintaining a high rate of tumor control."


text: Should women who suffer from the demobilizing symptoms of menopause -- hot flashes, night sweats, sleeplessness and mood swings -- take hormone replacement therapy?That is the question facing many women, since a groundbreaking study a decade ago turned the tables on the medical approach to relieving the symptoms of menopause with hormones. The answer: the decision is a highly individualized one, to be determined between each patient and her doctor, South Florida physicians say. "There is not one answer that fits all women because each woman's risk is different," said Dr. Silvina Levis, professor of medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine and director of its Osteoporosis Center. In 2002, a study by the Women's Health Initiative was halted after 5 1/2 years when researchers found that estrogen and progestin supplements significantly increased the rate of heart attacks, stroke, blood clots and breast cancer in healthy postmenopausal women. The increased risk of a heart attack or stroke began in the first year of hormone use, while the risk of breast cancer jumped after four years on hormones. While the study's methodology has been criticized by many, there is no doubt that the conclusions have caused a sea change in how doctors prescribe hormones to their patients, physicians say. Until then, the prevailing medical belief was that hormone replacement could help prevent such ailments as heart disease and osteoporosis. Women often began taking hormones as soon as they began feeling the symptoms of menopause, and continued them for life. Now, doctors suggest that women in perimenopause (the period before menopause begins) or menopause, who are suffering from symptoms that are interfering with their daily lives, should consult with their doctor if they wish to consider hormone replacement. "What changed is the practice -- what women choose to do and what doctors prescribe, it changed it significantly," Levis said. "Now, the pendulum is swinging back a little bit, in that some women do get estrogen." Menopausal symptoms vary from woman to woman, doctors say. Some women go through the transition symptom-free, others have symptoms for a year or two, and others experience symptoms that drag on for years. "If a woman is very symptomatic, can't sleep at night, has hot flashes through the day and night sweats that really bother her, we try to help her," Levis said. "Women with severe menopausal symptoms have a very hard time, and hormone therapy can really help them." Doctors will weigh the symptoms with the potential risks, looking at a patient's own medical history as well as family history, particularly for heart disease and stroke. "It's a very personal decision," said Dr. Veronica McCloskey, a cardiologist with the Columbia University division of cardiology at Mount Sinai Medical Center, in Hialeah. "If you have an extensive family history of stroke and we know that in the first year there is an increased risk of stroke, maybe you really shouldn't take it. If you have a very strong family history of heart disease, maybe it's not a good idea." In fact, heart disease in women before menopause is rare, but after menopause it increases dramatically, and is the No. 1 killer of women in the United States, McCloskey said. So, along those lines, if a patient is very overweight, has high blood pressure, high cholesterol and has a significant family history for early onset heart disease, she may not be a good candidate, said Dr. Victoria Lopez-Beecham, a gynecologist and obstetrician at Baptist Hospital in Kendall. So who, then, is a good candidate for hormone replacement therapy? > Lopez-Beecham cited those patients who are very symptomatic for "vasomotor symptoms," such as hot flashes and night sweats; those who suffer from severe vaginal dryness from a lack of estrogen; who do not have any contraindications, like a significant family history of breast cancer or high risk for cardiovascular disease; and are relatively young, say 50 to 55. "The trend is to give as low as dose as you can for as short a duration as possible, to try to alleviate those symptoms," she said, "provided the medicine you are going to give is not going to put her at significant risk." Another reason to take hormone replacement therapy is to slow the aging process, said Dr. Amanda Richards-Bullock, a gynecologist and obstetrician at the University of Miami. "With the lack of hormones, the body starts to lose calcium from the bones, so women become at risk for osteoporosis and a loss of connectivity from blood vessels and skin -- the wrinkles, the drying out, all those fun things," Richards-Bullock said. "We can't stop it but we can slow it down a little bit." She advises that patients undergo blood tests to see what hormones are lacking, and only replace those that are missing.

The agent of homeopathy can be traced aback to the plan of the German physician Dr. Samuel Hahnemann. This another acreage of anesthetic is based on the acceptance that beastly physique has the adeptness to alleviate itself. According to this theory, affection of any ailment should hardly be suppressed with medicines. It should be acclimated as an indicator to assay the requirements of the body. The healing action of the beastly physique can be angry with the use of these medicines.
Important Features:
Homeopathic medicines are awful adulterated to accomplish it able and abate the abrogating furnishings of the medicine. Accepted doctors amusement illnesses based on the concrete appearance admitting this another acreage of anesthetic considers the all-embracing abundance of the patient.
These medicines are basically acquired from plants, minerals and animals. Some of the a lot of frequently acclimated beastly articles cover ink aqueous from the cuttlefish, honey from bees and so forth. Some of the remedies are aswell acquired from mineral ores such as sulfur and sodium chloride.
Homeopathic medicines are able in a altered address with a admixture of alcohol, baptize and alive ingredients. This admixture is again filtered and blush is produced. This blush is adulterated to abatement its absorption and access its healing powers. These medicines are accessible in altered authority ranges.
These medicines are accessible in the anatomy of aqueous or dilutions, pellets and tablets. These medicines can be captivated alternating with accepted medicines to amusement assorted ailments. It is absolutely able in alleviative cold, flu, allergies and eczema. Although these medicines are acclimated to amusement assorted added diseases, a lot of humans are ambiguous of its alleviative abilities. It is aswell administered for PMS in women, depression, all-overs and rheumatism.
It is important to abstain able beverages while arresting homeopathic medicines as it could cede it ineffective. Coffee and booze should be abhorred completely. It is aswell astute to accumulate these medicines abroad from able affairs such as Vicks, Tiger analgesic and so forth.
Benefits of Homeopathic Medicine:
These alleviative articles are safe and hardly aftermath any ancillary effects. The alleviative doses are baby and adulterated so it believed to be absolutely harmless. Moreover, as these medicines are acquired from plants and minerals, it tends to enhance the alleviative adeptness of the physique in abounding ways.
Most of these medicines are accessible over the adverse but it is important to seek the admonition of a medical practitioner afore arresting it. As there are altered remedies associated with the use of these medicines, it is important to use it accordingly. Homeopathic doctors appraise the affection of the diseases and administrate medicines accordingly. However, altered medicines are administered to humans with agnate diseases as the beastly physique and its acknowledgment to medicines alter largely.
Although there is no accurate affirmation that this another acreage of anesthetic is effective, it is abundantly acclimated in altered countries to amusement assorted types of ailments.

Using transgenic zebrafish as an emerging, powerful whole animal model for cancer gene discovery, in combination with cultured cells and data from human tumors, they found that a gene called UHRF1, which is highly expressed in many types of cancers, can cause liver cancer at an unprecedented rate and incidence — with tumors forming in 75% of fish within 20 days. Results from the study are published online in the journal Cancer Cell.
"This is the first time that UHRF1 has been shown to be sufficient on its own to cause any kind of cancer when it is highly expressed," said the study's senior investigator, Kirsten C. Sadler, PhD, Associate Professor Medicine in the Division of Liver Diseases and of Developmental and Regenerative Biology, and Director of the Zebrafish Research Facility at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. UHRF1 has generated a lot of interest because it is a central regulator of epigenome — which is a collection of reversible modifications to DNA and the DNA packaging proteins — that are important for deciding which genes are expressed and how the DNA is transmitted during cell division. The cancer cell epigenome is dramatically different from normal cells, and the field of cancer epigenetics is exploding because of the hope that these changes could be reversed, and thereby reverse the aggressive nature of cancer cells. "Down the road, we hope to develop drugs to target UHRF1 and thereby reset the cancer epigenome to activate anti-tumor mechanisms and halt liver cancer.," added Dr. Sadler.
UHRF1 Levels Important in Human Liver Cancers, Too
When the team analyzed patient-derived liver tumors, they found that high levels of the UHRF1 were also found there, too. Most strikingly, the changes in gene expression caused by high UHRF1 levels in zebrafish were reflected in the human tumors expressing high UHRF1 levels. This points to similar mechanisms underlying UHRF1-driven liver tumor formation in both species. One of these is the ability of the cancer-prone cells to bypass the tumor suppressive mechanisms that are activated in most cells when they receive a cancer-causing stimulus.
Cellular senescence is one such mechanism, and this study found that tumors associated with UHRF1 levels in both fish and humans only those cells that could escape senescence were the ones that could go on to form the tumors. This lays the groundwork to use this model to test new therapies that would target UHRF1 to re-activate the senescence program and halt cancer formation.
Dr. Sadler pointed to several advantages of using zebrafish in preclinical liver disease research. Zebrafish reproduce rapidly and abundantly, they are translucent until about three weeks of age, enabling researchers to directly visualize tumor growth, and the cells in the liver function similarly to those in humans. Zebrafish are also inexpensive to raise, making this study uniquely powerful, as they analyzed nearly 300 fish for tumors in this study- a scope that would be extremely costly using traditional mammalian cancer models.
UHRF1 is overexpressed in around 40%-50% hepatocellular cancers in humans and predict poor outcome. This overexpression is associated with poorer prognosis in terms of high recurrence rate and low term overall survival. "We have little to offer people in the setting of advanced disease — and this points to an entirely new direction," Dr. Sadler said. "It raises the hope that epigenetic drugs could be applied to liver cancer in the future."
Commenting on the research, Scott Friedman, MD, Dean for Therapeutic Discovery, and Fishberg Professor of Medicine, and Chief of the Division of Liver Diseases, at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, said: "Dr. Sadler's team has conducted a remarkable study that combines the power of the zebrafish model with state of the art genomic analysis of a devastating and poorly treated human cancer. This kind of comprehensive study not only uncovers a new approach to treating hepatocellular carcinoma, but also provides a vital roadmap to unlocking cancer's secrets more quickly and effectively."
The need for better treatments for hepatocellular cancer was underscored by Josep M. Llovet, MD, a study coauthor, and Professor of Medicine, and Director, Mount Sinai Liver Cancer Program. "The incidence of hepatocellular cancer is increasing worldwide and the median outcome at advanced stages with the sole effective molecule available, Sorafenib, is one year. Thus, identification of novel targets for HCC therapies are an unmet medical need. The current study points to the fact that UHRF1 is an oncogene driver and a potential target for therapies."

A wonderful play of neutrals and warm deep tones...of the extremely textured, to the soft nuances of shadows... a feeling of constant change... tho "just" a "still life"!!! Also, a tad grayer on this page, than the original....which has very rich, deep chroma! Comes framed, but if you prefer to frame it yourself, it is $200 less than listed, but still Free Shipping!!
Capturing an inner feeling, so quickly passing, that's beyond words, almost beyond thought: the nuances that dance between a mountain & the sky that embraces her, creating a symphony that the eyes perceive, but only the soul remembers. This celebration of light upon the physical & ethereal worlds, creates a love affair for the viewer. It's this special moment that excites me, that drives me to risk failure, if I but the chance to capture a fraction of what I see, feel or know, from this wonderful experience we call "Life!!" Before 1986 the word "plein air" had not been used in the United States art field since around the 1920s. An artist from Catalina Island called me, and asked me to do ONE national advertisement, to promote a group...

Type: Improvement
Status: Closed
Priority: Minor
Resolution: Declined
Affects versions: None
Fix versions: None
Patch:Code and Test
To the topic of get-in and update-in. While I realize this is not a bug it is odd and in my eyes unexpected and unwanted behavior.
get-in called with an empty path returns the hashmap it was given to walk through - this is as I expect and makes a lot of sense when dynamically (with generated pathes ) walking a hash map.
update-in behaves differently and while from the implementation side, it's behavior too makes sense, it does not work as expected (at least not for me) update-in with an empty map creates a new key 'nil' so:
(update-in{...} [] f) ist he same as (update-in {...}
[nil] f) while (get-in{...} []) is not the same as (get-in {...}
[nil]) and of cause differs from what update-in does.
For automatically walking trees the behavior of get-in makes a lot more sense since the current behavior of update-in forces you to check for empty paths and if they are empty fall back to plain assoc and get (or get-in since this works):
(if-let [r (butlast @path)] (do (alter m update-in r dissoc (last @path)) (alter m update-in r assoc {:name @sr} c)) (do (alter m dissoc (last @path)) (alter m assoc {:name @sr} c)))
Next argument is that update-in with an empty map working on nil isn't easy to gasp, one needs to know the implementation details to realize that it works, I think 90% of the people reading update-in with [] will not instinctively know that it works on the key nil, so changing this would most likely not break any current code, and if it would the code would be bad anyway .
Chouser has, a very nice solution on the mailing list that would fix the problem I'm not sure if I'm entitled to post it here since I did not wrote it but it can be found in this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/de5b20b8c3fe498b?hl=en

Starz has shared the first photos from and a trailer for the upcoming second season of its adventure series "Da Vinci's Demons," which will air in Spring 2014.
And yes, Leonardo still hasn't buttoned up his shirt front. The series, from David S. Goyer, follows the "untold" (er, fictional--but fun) adventures of Leonardo da Vinci as he was becoming the elder inventor, scientist, painter and innovator—the Renaissance man—people recognize him as historically. Tom Riley plays Leonardo.
In Season 2, Starz says, Florence is "thrown into chaos in the wake of the Pazzi conspiracy. Lorenzo is gravely ill and Leonardo da Vinci must push the limits of his mind and body to defend the city against the forces of Rome.
"While the Medicis go to unthinkable lengths to deal with new threats, da Vinci continues on his quest to find the fabled Book of Leaves and uncover the secret history of his mother. He'll come to realize that he has lethal competition in his quest—new enemies who may be even worse than the forces of Pope Sixtus.
"His search will take him to faraway lands and force him to reevaluate everything he knew about the world and his own history."
Apparently that search leads him to South America. One of the photos in the gallery above suggests Leonardo and Count Orisini (Blake Ritson) are in an Incan tomb. And in the new trailer released this afternoon at New York Comic-Con, we see Da Vinci and his pals sail to what presumably is South America.
The series also stars Laura Haddock as Lucrezia Donati, Elliot Cowan as Lorenzo Medici and Lara Pulver as Clarice Orsini.
