Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), a program of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), raises medical research money through a nationally broadcast telethon and partnerships to establish formalized team science collaborations uniting the best basic scientists with the best clinicians to form "Dream Teams." We are proud to be one of the original five Dream Teams formed in 2009.
Our mission is to take our scientific and clinical observations and rapidly apply them to cutting edge clinical trials for patients diagnosed with breast cancer, ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer. Our Dream Team is composed of researchers and clinical investigators that have pioneered the discovery of the PI3K pathway and have proven its significance in women's cancers.
We are enrolling patients now in our breast cancer, ovarian cancer and endometrial clinical trials.

Author Notes: Glorious is what California summers are all about: warm and dry weather that's perfect for barbecues and balmy evenings spent with good food, great wines, and close friends.
This salad has been part of my repertoire for over 25 years. The cucumber gives it a nice crunch and subtle flavor, and the pimento adds a spark of color (a 1982 cookbook, "Glorious Food" was my muse for this, one of my favorite salads). It is important to use fresh, just-picked cucumbers for a sweet flavor. —dymnyno
Food52 Review: Combine fresh potatoes, cucumbers, and herbs from the garden (or, for the city folks, the farmer's market) with delicate, fragrant tarragon and you'll be transported to the south of France. Oh, tarragon, you magical thing. And with simple ingredients like this, you can celebrate summer long after the kids have gone back to school. Or dream about that trip to France...More, please! —Jennifer Mullin
Serves: 8
large Yukon Gold potatoes
cucumbers (each about 9 inches long)
teaspoon Dijon mustard
tablespoons scallions, mostly the white part, minced
tablespoons mayonnaise
tablespoons champagne vinegar
tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves, minced
tablespoon curly parsley, minced
cup olive oil
ounce jar of pimentos, drained and chopped
- In a large pot of water, cook the potatoes until tender but not mushy (still firm). Cool, peel, and cut into thin round slices.
- Peel the cucumbers. Using a julienne tool or mandoline (Benriner), julienne the cucumbers until you get to the seeds. You'll have long, thin slices that are the length of the cucumber. Put into a colander, sprinkle with a little salt and sweat out excess water. Save the cucumber water.
- Put the reserved cucumber water, mustard, scallions, mayonnaise, vinegar, tarragon, parsley, and olive oil into a blender. Blend until it becomes a smooth emulsion. Add black pepper to taste.
- Gently (I use my hands) fold the cucumbers into the potatoes.
- Next, fold the sauce into the potatoes and cucumbers.
- Finally, fold the minced pimento into the salad.

Nature Wars
The Incredible Story of How Wildlife Comebacks Turned Backyards Into Battlegrounds
Jim Sterba
Crown, 368 pp., $26
The nature-challenged reader will discover many new and startling facts in Jim Sterba's new book. Among them all one stands out: Not only are America's Eastern forests roaring back to life, they've been doing so for more than a century.
Sterba, a veteran reporter for the Wall Street Journal and New York Times, literally stumbles onto this truth one day amid the majestic trees of Maine's Acadia National Park. He sees feral grapevines strangling a birch tree. When he gets out of his car to rip the vines out, he finds a rusting 1927 Maine license plate.
After talking to the locals, Sterba realizes he's walking on the ruins of a farm that's been swallowed up by a new forest. The grapes were there before the trees, "a remnant of a very different civilization that had existed not long ago."

Bethel College St. Paul, MN. March 2, 1979

Roster situation nears saga's end despite student complacency
by Mike Messer
After many failures, the
perfected Bethel roster is expected
to be here in about three weeks,
according to Jim Torgerson, com-munications
board chairman.
The original 1978-79 roster has
been plagued with many problems
and miscalculations. In previous
years, a student director had
always coordinated the roster.
This year, however, Phodale
Photo company contracted to
publish the roster.
A year ago, Phodale planned to
complete the roster by mid-
October. But Phodale made a
fatal assumption: that Bethel
students would want to submit in-formation
and photos for the
Phodale felt all information
could be collected by the end of
Students delayed in sending in
their information and so Phodale
Missed the printing deadline they
had set with a local printer.
The printer had not planned to
.do any other work except the
roster during two weeks in Oc-tober.
When Phodale missed the
deadline the printer tried to fit the
assignment in between other jobs.
Since the head printer was on
vacation, no quality control was
kept on the roster's printing. And
so, the infamous blacked-blotched
Bethel roster burgeoned.
The problem could have been
alleviated if students who did not
have their information in on time
were left out of the roster.
President Lundquist, Student
Affairs, and the senate CoMmuni-cations
Board all agreed that it
was absolutely necessary that
everyone at least have information
included in the roster, if nothing
When asked why a second ros-ter
was necessary, Jim explained
that Bethel currently does not
have any type of yearbook so the
roster becomes a photographic
history of the students.
After the printer saw what had
happened to the first printing, he
insisted on reprinting the roster at
no extra cost.
Realizing that this was the first
time Senate had ever contracted
the roster to a private business,
Jim characterized it as, "a lot of
people learning...a lot of mistakes
Ignorance Apathy throws hat in ring
"Maintenance is concerned and
sorry for the inconvenience," said
Jim Woods, director of physical
plant. Woods was referring to the
recent flooding caused by leaking
roofs in some of the west town-houses.
According to Woods, poor in-sulation
and malfunctioning
valves are the main culprits. He
explained that if a vent does not
function properly, cold air cannot
circulate under a roof.
And if the insulation between
the ceiling and the roof is inade-quate,
heat from the house melts
the snow off the roof, especially if
the vent is not working.
The melted snow becomes a
problem when it freezes at the
overhanging edges of the roof.
And if the snowfall is heavy, like
last month, ice accumulates rapid-ly.
This is exactly what happened
to the townhodses. Heavy ice, up
to 18" thick, kept the melted
snow from running off the roof.
The trapped water then seeped
through the shingles and through
the ceilings. In one of the town-houses,
the ceiling collapsed.
"This has never happened
before, and the situation is dif-ficult
to remedy," said Woods.
He also added that this was a com-by

Anderson: Yeah, in essence the

Olsen: That's not what I meant,

For the future, Woods said he

Olsen: Steve has nice hair.
Anderson: I think Becky is bet-ter

A number of students were quite upset after Rev. Dick Johnson spoke
in chapel last week. Mr. Johnson spoke rather pointedly concerning the
responsibilities of the Christian.
Apparently some students did not appreciate being "preached at."
Most modern evangelicals, at least those of the brand common to
Bethel, are not able to remember the fiery sermons of our fundamen-talist
roots, a few decades ago.
For three centuries American preachers pounded podiums and spoke
directly about the Christian's responsibility.
Now, however, we are not used to such personal involvement. In-stead,
we listen as an audience to the "preacher" who provides our mor-ning
entertainment, quite unlike the preachers of biblical times, from
Elijah to Paul.
This is understandable. Elijah and Paul, as examples, were rarely
popular or well-received.
This is not to say that our style of religion has completely strayed
from the path. We get caught, however, between two dangerous at-titudes.
On the other hand, we shun anyone who makes us uncomfortable
with our established habits (of doing or not doing certain things). We
don't appreciate catalysts who shake us up or make us reconsider what
we are already doing.
We want to be constantly edified and built up as good people.
On the other hand, we can listen to spiritual leaders and set them
apart as just that: spiritual leaders, people who seem to be more "into"
These people are intimidating to us. They are able to pray fluently in
public. They always have something profound to say about spiritual
life. They quote scripture.

Profanity in feature film out of place in gym
by Shelly Nielsen
Now that the fervor over that
acclaimed holiday—St.
Valentine's—has subsided, a vital
topic needs serious discussion.
The world calls it romance. Bethel
calls it a "problem."
Anti-romanticism is laziness! It
is a disease that infects the sen-timental
soul of an individual and
makes him prefer a White Castle
hamburger to a quiet dinner for
two (with scenic view) in the con-ducive
atmosphere of the Bethel
It is the type of no-nonsense
outlook that makes couples march
the aisle to strains of "You Sexy
Thing" rather than those of "I
Love You Truly."
The problem isn't only a local
one, of course. Colleges in general
suffer from this decline of interest
in Jeanette MacDonald-Nelson
Eddi duets, sidelong glances, and
"couple's skates"; reports of anti-romanticism
come from singles'
youth group members and cruise
ship participants alike. -
But Bethel is, according to a
few suppressed romantics, an en-couragement,
an inspiration to
every cold-hearted, practical,
love-'em-and-leave-'em Sean
Connery of the world. Let's face
it. Bethel is 'blah romantically.
And its dirty habit must be drag-ged
into the light.
Poisonous beef board exposes
blame Betheline (non-) dating
habits for the problem, but it goes
deeper than that. Far be it from
me to rub salt in an old wound.
Blame cannot be dealt to any one
sect—male or female—in the
school. Evidence of apathy
toward "sentimentality" at Bethel
convicts both women and _men; it
transcends class, -major, and
religious background. -
The guys have started receiving
$5 checks in their PO's instead of
the traditional coconut macaroons
(may be substitued for the six
dozen choclate chip cookies). Ad-mittedly,
this may be the weakest
of my examples. (The non-romantic
reporting this occur-rence
is quoted as saying, "Don't
stop! I love it.")
Now, personal Bethel messages
in the "Reader" voice such elo-quent
sentiments as "Poopsie, I

Even the recent rash of
Christmas engagements ironically

Love in retrospect
Women suggest more dates, less affection
Editor's note: The following ar-ticle
is reprinted from the Clarion,
Dec. 10, 1954. It is evident that
apathy toward sentimentality at
Bethel is rapidly approaching its
silver anniversary.
Coming from secular high
schools, many girls at Bethel have
stated that, on the whole, Bethel
fellows are pretty swell. "In
fact," said June Sparling, "I
didn't know there were so
many nice boys."
Many girls who were interview-ed
commented that some of the
men on campus get serious too
fast. After taking a girl out a few
times, he considers her to be his
own girlfriend and expects the
other fellows to refrain from ask-ing
her out after that. That is all
right if the feeling is mutual, but
sometimes the girl would like to
go out with others before she
decides to go with only one-. - -
Other girls have found that
some fellows only want to go
steady so they will have a seeming-.

long enchanted evenings of
Ground Round Jrs., a movie at
Har Mar theater, glowing conver-sations
in booths at Farrells (Pro-fessors),
and the dark, romantic
ride back to New Campus on the
Bethel bus? Where have moon-light,
non-alcoholic cold duck,
and roses gone?
When confronted with this mat-ter,
the average student seems sur-prisingly
touchy and even defen-sive
about it.
Conducting a serious and
thorough poll on what is con-sidered
a major concern at this in-stitution,
I got strange looks, cold
shoulders, and one threat of pro-longed
physical violence. It
became apparent, however, that
the subject was on people's minds,
ly legitimate excuse to accept the
girls' affection. They are not will-ing
to accept the responsibilities of
going steady, but would feel guilty
if they acted as they do without
going steady.
Waiting until the last day before
asking a girl out is a practice that
irritates many girls. Girls have
remarked that it is inconvenient
when that happens before formal
affairs, as they can never be sure
whether or not to send for their
formals. Others have commented
that while some boys wait too long
to ask for a date, the girls do not
have to accept such dates.
Men who go steady with girls at

some Bethel women as "double-crossers,"

there is too much affection
shown in public, a fact for which
both boys and girls are at fault.
and is indicated by a few of the
unedited, vehement reactions I
-"What's that?" (Name with-held).
-"I kissed a girl's hand once"
(Former Bethel student, now at-tending
Perrine's School of Hair-dressing).
-"I wanted passion! I wanted
whirlwind romancing! I wanted
chocolates and secret notes. But
Scott Barsuhn wouldn't
cooperate" (A senior).
-"R.A. romances! A romantic
evening with her meant watching
`Starsky and Hutch' in the rec
room while she was on duty"
(T.H. leader, '79).
It seems the typical dater knows
little of the art of romancing. In
honor of a long forgotten emo-

policy is that games will be provid-ed

According to Nettleton, Bethel
is the only college in the Twin

The music listening room is the

the room will be carpeted.
Students will be able to bring in
their own equipment.

The lounges will be furnished
much like the other lounges in the
college, with the exception of the

be used as a meeting room.
Nettleton hopes that the activity

One of his major efforts is to

of the language competency that a

One way the Committee keeps

Larson sees the desire for
material well-being and a reticence
to be adventuresome as major
problems in missions today.
"There is a serious gap between
the lifestyles of missionaries and
many of their hosts," Larson
says. But it won't be closed simply
by moving the Americans into less
comfortable surroundings.
"The gap is in their heads," he
insists. "While some missionaries
live very comfortably, they're
wizards in terms of empathy and
understanding and love for peo-ple.
Others live at the edge of
poverty but lack the sensitivity
needed to put themselves across." .
And somehow Larson would
like to help missionaries develop a
more pioneering spirit to risk new
opportunities, to carve out niches

Added to these observations is
Larson's deep concern over a
fragmented world that has largely
failed to identify a shared destiny.
(Iran is a prime example.)

future. Never has there been a

Tiring tourney brings tough competition

Thursday, March 8, at 6 p.m.,
10 students will start PAC's
50-hour basketball marathon in
the old campus gym. The mara-thon
will involve two five-member
teams (one woman and four men).
Two years ago a similar marathon
was held, commented Becky Dye,

hours. This time we are going to
play for 50 hours and set a new
Bethel record."

PAC is one of the four inter-nal
committees of the Student
Senate. Each year the committee
addresses itself to social concerns
around the world.
This year PAC has chosen
human rights as its concern. These
rights include an individual's right
to food, education and shelter.
PAC then proceeds to support
their concerns financially. An in-dividual's

churches, and possibly from some

In the Clippers 77-70 loss at the
hands of the Nets (Jerry Black 22
pts., Scott Engstrom 17) Haugen
scored 23, Burton 18, and Rap 17.
The scoring in the Communi-cables
68-42 win over the Quaz
was also very balanced. Rich
Graves and Jon Siebert led the
winners with 15 each, followed by
Tom Klitzke, Dan Roach and
Gary Edlund who all had 12.
Quaz had three players with
more than eight points but no one
with more than nine. I would ven-ture
to guess that this balanced
scoring is a reflection on the

Blanchard is already Bethel's all
time assist leader even though he
is only a junior.
Playing one of their best halves
of the season, the Royals took a
39-22 halftime lead over Mac.
Bethel came out fired up, and led
by the shooting of Torn Tengwall,
took a 16-4 lead after giving up
the initial basket.
The lead was stretched to as
great as 20 before the half. The
Scots hurt themselves by shooting
only 21 per cent from the field in
the half.
Early in the second half, Mac
cut the margin to six. But after
taking a timeout, Bethel ripped
off four straight buckets, includ-ing
a nifty fastbreak basket by
overall improvement of play in
both A and B leagues.
In the Omega circuit the
Swedish Fly Girls had four players
with ten points each as they broke
the Glass Menagerie 51-33.
BMOC has also had good team
play only it's usually on a much
higher point scale.
When the Big Men only led Go
for-Baroque 30-12 at halftime
they decided to play good defense
and held GFB to 11 pts. in the sec-ond
half to coast to the 68-23 win:
John Starr tossed in 24, Joel
Forsline 22 and Mark Forsline 18.
It is obvious that the medieval
musicians spend more time in the
practice room than on the court
(In all due respect to the editor.)
BMOC's other win of the week
was an 84-33 barnburner over
NR4BLP. Gary Homsley was the
only player not to hit double
figures. He had five.

"Within the next few years,
we'll be in the MIAC champion-ship,"
prophesied Tommy Cor-rell,
leading scorer in Bethel's first
year of varsity hockey.
"The hockey team is committed
to excellence," he said. And with
the new talent coming in, and a
few year's experience, Correll
believes Bethel will be strong con-tenders
in the MIAC.
Anyone who watched Correll
play during the season knows that
he practices what he preaches.
His dedication and hard work
are evident on every shift, and it
pays off. Correll, who plays
center, scored 19 goals and got 14
assists, for a team-high 33 points.

Blanchard, and the score was
From then on, the Royals kept
the lead between 10 and 15, urged
on by their feisty home fans.
Miller capped off the game with a
ferocious slam dunk at the buzzer.
Tengwall added 15 points while
Wilson had 14. The high point
men for Mac were Kevin ,Fury and
Steve Clingman with 18 apiece.
Bethel outshot the Scots 59 to
40 per cent and outrebounded
them 39 to 31.
Against St. Mary's, the Royals
took the lead early and gradually
built it to 38-30 at halftime.
Miller already had 20.

remaining. But three two-pointers,
two by Weko and one by
Todd Chapman, sent the Royals
off and running. The visitors were
unable to control Bethel's
fastbreak and the lead was widen-ed
to 12.
St. Mary's got within six with
1:30 remaining and again with :30
left but that was as close as they
could come.
Besides Miller, three other
Royals hit double figures—
Wilson with 18, Blanchard with 14
and Tom Weko with 10. Marvin
Tunstall led the Redmen, pump-ing
in 24.
For the season, Miller leads the-team

The results of the first women's
track meets seem to indicate that
this season may be one of the most
successful ever.
"This could be our best year so
far, if we can keep people well,"
said Coach Shirley Dawson. "We
don't have a lot of depth, so we
need to keep our key people run-
Scott Feltman, also a center,
was the team's second highest
scorer with 17 goals and 8 assists.
Davey Johnson, who played at
wing position on Correll's line,
had 11 goals and 12 assists, and
did not start playing until interim.
Coach Dave Harris realizes that
Correll is more important to the
team than his high point-total in-dicates.
"He's a good offensive
player, but his example of all-around
hard work was really good
for the team," explained Harris.
"Tommy works as hard in prac-tice
as in games."
Correll's hard work and champ-tionship
vision began several years
before arriving at Bethel.

50 per cent. Blanchard is scoring
at a 14.1 clip and Wilson 12.5. In
rebounds, Miller has grabbed 9.8
and Wilson 8.8 per game.
The junior varsity won again,
trouncing Luther Seminary
Although team scores weren't
kept at the St. Olaf triangular,
Bethel put in a good performance.
Denise Egge set Bethel indoor
records in the mile and 600 with
times of 5:17 and 1:31.7
Her record in the 600 was also a
St. Olaf fieldhouse record. Wendy
Norberg set an indoor record in
the two-mile at 12:47.
First place finishes were also
awarded to Sara Barker in the
shot put, and the medley relay
team of Lynn Severson, Tina
Anderson, DeAnn Seegert and
Denise Egge.
Bethel was outscored by the
University of Wisconsin-Stout in
the next meet 55-35, but Bethel ac-cumulated
more first place
"We didn't run in the hurdles,
which gave them nine points," ex-plained
Coach Dawson. "They
also took the relays, and since no
second-place points were award-ed,
they scored ten more points
while we scored none."
Bethel took six first places, and,
except for the relays, Stout only
took three.
Two new events were run, so
two new Bethel records were set.
Tina Anderson's first place time
of 2:56.9 in the 1000 yard run, and
Deb Sension's time of 6.2 in the 50
yard dash were new records.
Egge again won the mile and
The varsity has now finished its
home season and tonight's game
at Gustavus is its last game. Their
record now stands at 5-20, 3-14 in
600, and Sara Barker threw the
shot 36' 2.25". which is her per-sonal
best and only a foot shy of
the record.
"Sara is improving about a foot
a week, so I expect her to break
the record soon. She's not near
her potential yet," said Coach
Dawson. Dawson also added that
she expects the freshman from
Nebraska to qualify for the na-tionals
by next year.
Deb Sension won the high jump
at 4'-10", and Wendy Norberg
placed first in the two-mile.
Bethel will go -against Stout
again, along with Hamline,
Gustavus and Macalester at the
Mac home field today at 6:30 p.m.
Standout senior Denise Egge is
considered by Coach Dawson to
be the highest quality runner, and
her specialities are the distances
between 600 yards and the mile.
She holds six Bethel records and
three indoor records.
Returning sprinter Lynn Sever-son
has already equaled her best
from last year's indoor season,
and Coach Dawson is pleased with
the perfofmances of Tina Ander-son
in the half mile and mile, and
Wendy Norberg in the two mile.
Sophomore Deb Sension, in her
first year of track, is already
jumping near the high jump
record, despite only a few weeks

Weightloss Platueau
Well, I have been dieting (calorie counting) and exercising the same way for a couple of months. I was losing great ... down 30 lbs so far! Then, all of a sudden, I'm not losing any more. Doing the same stuff, exactly, but not losing. In fact, I even gained a pound . Any tips? Suggestions? Anyone to wallow in misery with?
I just want to give up. Everything I read says plateaus are normal and it's time to change something ... but, I've never had success with dieting until now, so to change what's working is hard to accept. I changed my workout a little and am hoping that will help - not more or anything, just different workout.
Vent over.

Re: Weightloss Platueau
First of all, congrats on losing 30lbs!! That's a huge accomplishment! One thing I found helps when I hit a plateau is to shake up your calorie consumption... So eat 1200 calories one day, 1800 then next. You're still averaging 1500 calories daily, but it keeps your body guessing a little bit. Also make sure you're eating several small meals every day, rather than just two or three big ones.
Can you tell us a bit about your daily routine in terms of eating and excercising? How long have you been at this plateau?
Try not to stress about it. You've done a really great job so far!
Happy mama to three little monkeys!!

Re: Weightloss Platueau

Thank you so much!
So my day usually looks like this:
8:00 small meal approx 250 cals (like egg and low carb toast or pb and low carb toast)
9:30 40 min cardio (elliptical, bike, rower).
10:30 small snack approx 100 cals (apple, nuts, string cheese, for example)
1:00 lunch approx 350 cals (like a sandwich, leftovers, frozen entree)
4:00 light dinner (varies, but usually 300-400 cals, usually something veggieish)
6:00 snack (varies based on daily consumption, examples incl veggies, nuts, peanut butter, cheese, lean meats)
Three nights a week I walk half hour as well after dinner.
I have T2, so trying to stay low carb hence the meaty, cheesy tendencies. I'm most careful about sticking to 1400-1500 cals per day, aware of fats and carbs. I watch my blood sugar carefully... Always under 125.
I have been in a rut of elliptical for 20 mins and bike 20 mins so I have changed that up the past two days swimming laps and jogging instead.
I drink powerade zero and water... I cut out most soda but some mornings do have a coke zero for the caffeine.
I started at 223. I am at 183.4 now. I'm 5'4.
Would love tips and advice! I'm trying to get this going again because I'm starting a full time internship in January after not working for 7 years. I need to set a good example for my kids and get healthy! Help!

Re: Weightloss Platueau
Hey mama,
Congrats on your success so far! Don't worry, your body will find it's healthy weight if you continue to shift your lifestyle to become more and more healthy.
I have some suggestions for you - my approach is a little different, if you are open I work with holistic nutrition and emotional imagery.
Calorie counting isn't the best idea for long term weight management/release. Reason being that your body needs the highest density in nutrition possible. Sometimes when we calorie count, we waste our meals and snacks with nutritionally less dense foods.
Also, the more you can become aware of your body's needs, the more you should be able to "feel" when you are eating appropriate amounts.
You will also store fat for different reasons - such as toxins built up in your fat cells that aren't being metabolized. Calorie counting will never get rid if this problem.
1. Forget calorie counting all together. 1200 calories a day is not sustainable, and will affect your metabolism.
2. Shift to a whole food approach, where you eat leafy greens as your main source, then other vegg, then fruits, then lean proteins, then dairy or substitutes, then grains (whole grain and quinoa type grains). Less processed foods, as little sugar as possible, but maple syrup, honey etc is great to sweeten :-) it's not CARB reduction its processed sugar reduction.
3. NO artificial sweetener - ever. EVER. Raw organic sugar, honey, maple syrup, fruit etc is FINE to eat, but NEVER EVER consume artificial sweetener. (Stevia is great and the others mentioned). Aspartame and Sucralose have been shown not only to slow weight loss, but are also highly toxic to the body (which will slow weight loss because the body will hoard fat to protect it's organs).
**no powerade - there are healthier options that do't have the color or chemical content.
4. Working out os only 20% of the weight release answer - so, do what you love, and do it often. If you can up your time to 40 minutes that would be awesome, and if you can add weight bearing activity once or twice a week, you would notice a huge difference.
Anyways mama - I would be more than happy to help you shift some of this if you are interested. It is really a huge shift in mindset away from calorie counting, but it works, and it is the healthiest way to go about weight release.
PM me if you want some help or more detail - I feel like I am writing a book here!

Alameda Mayor s Fourth of July Parade will kick-off at 10 a.m. on Friday.
The 3.3 mile route begins at Park Street and Lincoln Avenue and ends at Webster Street and Lincoln. Those wishing to check out the horses and parade floats before the event can come down to Park Street and Everett Street starting at 8 a.m.
There's also a five-kilometer race and walk that starts at 9:45 a.m. at the corner of Park and Santa Clara Ave. It ends at Webster and Haight Avenue, in front of the judge s stand.
The Wells Fargo stagecoach is back this year, which is pretty exciting, said event chair Barbara Price. There s a large horse population in the parade, too.
The annual event is expected to include over 180 entries and as many as 55,000 spectators. Some 3,000 individuals and animals are participating.
Bay Area native Michael Finney, a longtime consumer reporter with ABC7 News and also KGO-AM 810, will be the grand marshal. Finney, a former Alameda resident, says he has close ties to the Island.
I have been to the Mayor s Fourth of July Parade may times with my brother and his family. I think the world of Alameda and was honored that Mayor Marie Gilmore asked me to take on this role, Finney said.
Participants include a wide range of community and cultural groups, business organizations and more. There also will be plenty of VIPs and others in classic cars, along with groups on bikes, tricycles, stilts and other forms of transportation.
Marching bands and equestrian groups are always a highlight, organizers say. Last year, the Mayor s Trophy went to the Otaez-El Agavero Charro Association of horseback and trick riders.
Alameda Backyard Growers invites community members to join it and march on the big day.
The gardening group is entry #117 this year. Its members will line up on Lincoln between Park Street and Grand Avenue by 9 a.m.
Marchers are encouraged to bring water, wear comfortable shoes and have sunglasses; sunscreen is highly recommended.

Middlebury rookie Nate Leedy intercepted a pass in the end zone on the final play of the game, preserving a 27-24 win for the Panthers (5-1) over previously unbeaten Trinity (5-1) on homecoming. Middlebury had taken the lead on its previous possession with just 1:12 remaining. The loss snaps a 14-game winning streak for the Bantams, leaving them along with Middlebury and Amherst in a three-way tie for second place in the league, behind 6-0 Wesleyan. The Panthers have now beaten Trinity in three of the last four meetings on Youngman Field at Alumni Stadium.
Middlebury stopped Trinity on a fourth down play on its first possession, taking over at their own 48. Ten plays later, quarterback McCallum Foote found Matthew Minno over the middle for a 10-yard strike to put his team on top, 7-0.
On their next series, the Panthers extended their drive when a bad snap on a punt led to a 23-yard rush for a first down by punter Michael Dola. Middlebury proceeded to march to the Trinity seven, but a 24-yard field goal attempt from Dola was wide left.
Trinity took advantage of a Middebury turnover in the second quarter, after Brendan Bader picked off a pass at the Panther 35 and returned it to the 15. Three plays later, Ben Crick scored with a four-yard rush to the right corner to knot the game at 7-7.
Foote was again picked off on the Panthers' ensuing possession, as Casey Tanner returned the ball 27 yards to the Middlebury 35. Trinity gained just five yards, settling for a 37-yard field goal from Ben Rosenblatt.
Middlebury answered with an 11-play, 71-yard drive to take a 14-10 lead with 5:31 left in the half. Foote found tight end William Sadik-Khan three times on the drive for 32 yards, including a 17-yard scoring strike.
The Bantams came right back, scoring on their next possession to regain the lead. The methodical drive lasted 12 plays and covered 75 yards over a span of 4:46. The big play was a 27-yard connection from Sonny Puzzo to Chris Ragone, leaving the ball at the Middlebury 15. Crick found pay dirt on the next play, scoring from 15-yards out to put his team up 17-14 with just 38 seconds left in the half.
Middlebury tied the game in the third quarter when Dola connected from 28 yards out to make it a 17-17 game. Foote found Minno for 23 yards and Grant Luna for 17 during the drive.
Dola struck again early in the fourth quarter, this time from 37 yards away to put his team on top, 20-17. Foote found four different receivers during the drive.
Trinity regained the lead with an 85-yard drive that elapsed just 2:54 off the clock on seven plays in the fourth quarter. Puzzo hit Ragone for 34 yards before connecting once again, this time from 39 yards out for the touchdown. Trinity now led 24-20 with 4:57 remaining.
Middlebury moved the ball to the Trinity 30 on its next possession, before turning the ball over on downs on a nice pass break-up by cornerback Brain Dones.
The Panther defense forced Trinity to punt after three plays, giving them the ball on their own 25 with 2:21 left to play. A Bantam penalty moved the ball 15 yards down the field before Foote completed three straight passes. The third of the three was a 40-yard connection with Brendan Rankowitz, who was streaking down the left sideline. The Panthers were left with a first and goal situation from the Trinity seven, facing the same situation three plays later. On the fourth and one play, Foote found Minno over the middle, rifling a pass into the receivers' hands through heavy traffic.
Trailing 27-24, Trinity had the ball on their own 25 with 1:12 remaining and one timeout. Puzzo chipped away at the Panther defense, completing several short passes while leading his team down the field. He rushed the ball three times for 23 yards, with a 12-yard strike to Ian Dugger and an eight-yard completion to Evan Bunker to put the ball at the Middlebury 33. On the final play of the game, Puzzo threw a long ball to the left corner at the goal line, where Leedy picked it off to seal the win.
Foote finished the contest 29 of 64 for 310 yards with three touchdown passes. With Middlebury's top two rushers out, Ryan Hislop filled in admirably, carrying the ball 19 times for 69 yards. Minno caught nine passes for 110 yards with two touchdowns, while Rankowitz (100 yards) and Sadik-Kahn (60 yards) each caught seven balls. Matthew Benedict had a huge day defensively, making 19 tackles, 10 solo and one for lost yardage. Tim Patricia finished with 11 stops, while Addison Pierce had 10 tackles, 2.5 for lost yardage.
Puzzo finished 20-33 for 229 yards with a touchdown and an interception, while rushing 18 times for 58 yards. Crick led the ground game with a pair of touchdown on 14 carries for 62 yards. Bunker caught five passes for 47 yards while gaining 28 on the ground, while Ragone made three receptions for 100 yards with a touchdown. Mike Mancini led the defense with seven tackles, while Nathan Cyr made six, 1.5 for lost yardage. The Trinity defense finished the game with 14 pass break-ups.

ATUM has developed a unique protein engineering platform based on machine learning and Design of Experiment (DoE). The ProteinGPS proprietary technology uses the same megadimensional, empirical optimization processes currently applied to gasoline formulation, web advertising, and stock market investing. ProteinGPS technology relies on DoE to calculate the set of nodes that are information-rich in the relevant space, gene synthesis to make those exact sequences, and machine learning to find the preferred solution.
ATUM combines state-of-the-art gene synthesis with cutting edge machine learning and 'big data' to explore and exploit sequence-function relationships, identifying protein variants with significantly improved characteristics; typically assaying 96-400 variants over 3-5 rounds.
- Optimize directly for function in the final application
- Screen only 48-96 variants per round
- Sample space of >1016
- Low throughput, high quality assay; identical/similar to 'real' function
- No redundant clones
- Multidimensional function optimization
- Robust functional statistics, substitutions validated in multiple systematic contexts
Design of Experiment
DoE relies on systematic variance to explore sequence-function correlation efficiently. This is illustrated above using an example for optimizing enzymatic reaction conditions: the first set of experiments alters the temperature (X axis), the second set alters the pH (Y axis) of the reaction. The Z-dimension indicates the resulting enzymatic activity. First sampling (white) and second sampling (yellow) show how this 2-dimensional space is navigated using OFAT or DoE with each final outcome achieved (red circle). Now imagine an optimization in 5, 10, or even 50 dimensions. The DoE process is faster, more efficient, captures multivariable interactions, and finds the best solution.
Sequence diversity based on the pairwise Hamming distances in a typical random library (left) and a ProteinGPS dataset (right). The ProteinGPS gene variants (Infologs®) enable efficient DoE based sampling of the entire sequence-function space.
Finding the Best Starting Point
Before initiating a ProteinGPS program, there is often a need to identify a good starting point. This step is particularly relevant for biocatalysis and similar applications, and less so for protein therapeutics. ATUM has developed a standardized process to uniformly and accurately sample the phylogenetic tree of one or more protein families. The sampled sequence space is derived from public domain genetic databases and other sources.
Homologs are re-coded for host expression (e.g. E. coli) using ATUM proprietary technology and tagged for solubility and purification. The genes are synthesized, Electra-cloned, sequence verified, expressed, and the relevant functional activity(ies) assessed.
Depending on functional activity outcome from the homologs, it may be relevant to further drill down into one or more of the richer phylogenetic branches for synthesis and testing of additional related homologs. This second iteration is often useful for increased functionality and/or broader intellectual property claims.
The ProteinGPS process may use one, two, or more starting points for the subsequent ProteinGPS engineering depending on the outcome of the phylogenetic search, the number and distribution of the functional properties to engineer, and any other constraints that could affect the search. ProteinGPS starting point(s) are limited only by imagination.
ProteinGPS Engineering Process
All optimization can be divided into two key steps: Variable selection – how to choose amino acid substitutions to test, and Search – how to combine substitutions for best effect.
Variable Selection: ATUM builds a complete alignment of all homologs of a given protein family centered on the starting point(s) and identifies all sequence diversity available. Each amino acid substitution in the alignment is assigned multiple scores based on evolutionary, structural, and functional analysis (if available). Scores for each substitution are averaged, normalized, and mean centered. Substitutions are rank-ordered accordingly and top substitutions are included for ProteinGPS.
Search: The variables identified are incorporated in a systematically varied set of Infologs centered around the starting point(s). In the first round each Infolog is typically 3-5 amino acid substitutions away from all other Infologs in the round, including the starting point. Each substitution is present in 4-6 Infologs to access additivity. The substitution distribution in the Infolog set is determined through DoE algorithms. This process allows for maximum search efficiency throughout the 'design-build-test-learn' cycle.
1. DesignDoE based mining of available space and combining substitutions in an information maximized variant dataset.
2. BuildSynthesizing individually designed Infologs (48-96 per round) ensures that the physical implementation is identical to the virtual design with no random mutations.
3. TestTest in commercially relevant assays. Results allow us to deconvolute how substitutions within a protein sequence modify its function.
4. LearnEstablish a sequence-function model from the assay results and cross validate. Models are assessed based on their predictive value.

Optimizing Wheat GST in 15 Functional Dimensions
Glutathione S-transferases (GST) are key enzymes involved in chemical detoxification and breakdown. Wheat GST with the ability to detoxify a panel of 15 common herbicides was designed using ProteinGPS. The relative functional contribution of 60 amino acid substitutions against 15 substrates was quantified using only 96 Infologs and subsequently improved by making a small set (16) of 2nd generation Infologs. Govindarajan et al., ACS Synth Biol. 2015 Mar 20;4(3):221-7.
Heat map of the catalytic activity of 96 Infologs (rows) against 15 substrates (columns). Functional values are normalized. Dark blue signifies high activity.
Engineered diversity of GST activity and substrate specificity: highly predictable GST sequence-function models against two commercially relevant herbicides were created with quantification of relative functional contribution of 60 amino acid substitutions in two dimensions.
Principal component analysis (PCA) showing improved activity and altered specificity of GST variants. Predicted amino acid changes give desired shifts in substrate specificity.
Aminotransferase Enzyme Engineering
Researchers at Pfizer and ATUM successfully utilized ProteinGPS for enzyme engineering of an aminotransferase for the biocatalysis of a key chiral intermediate in the synthesis of imagabalin, an advanced anxiolytic drug candidate. The starting wt protein, Vfat, is an ω-amino acid:pyruvate transaminase with very weak but detectable catalytic activity toward aliphatic amines. Designing and testing <450 Vfat synthesized variants resulted in an aminotransferase optimized for substrate selectivity and reaction velocity sufficient for the commercial biocatalysis goal.

Process & Enzyme Engineering
Engineering of biocatalysis enzyme for Pfizer pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis. Four rounds (R1-R4) of biocatalytic variants screened for stereospecific activity for desired novel substrate. Several orders of magnitude improvement in specific activity was achieved testing a total of only 300 samples.
Multiple Functional Criteria
An industrial partner desired a protein with increased activity (blue bars), thermostability (red bars), and solubility (green bars) over their current candidate. ProteinGPS was used to characterize substitutions altering functionality in multiple dimensions. Combining positive effect substitutions ultimately produced several variants with orders of magnitude improvement in all 3 criteria.

Video – ProteinGPS Engineering Overview
Webinar – ProteinGPS Engineering via Systematic Exploration of Space
Learn more about Protein Engineering and Infologs. ProteinGPS relies on identifying key amino acid substitutions through bioinformatics-based mining of available sequence space and combining such substitutions in information maximized Infologs – synthetic gene variants designed to be systematically varied across the searched space.
Using a small set of variants to explore the sequence space systematically can help us understand the effects of substitutions on the protein activities and further helps us to determine e strategies to explore the sequence space. This can be attained using Machine Learning techniques to analyze the data from a small number of systematically designed variants of the protein, usually on the order of 100 variants. We can address questions related to additivity and multidimensional effects of substitutions on the various properties and activities that can be measured accurately under commercially relevant conditions.
