Skyrocketing operating costs at the Madaket landfill have led to a $4.7 million deficit in that enterprise fund alone, straining the municipal budget more so than any other town department and leading the Selectmen to consider a sweeping new fee structure to cover the shortfall.
A combination of lost revenue from declining construction and demolition waste, sales of recycled material and compost, as well as the mounting cost of new regulatory requirements have pushed the annual deficit to new heights.
To cover the shortfall, the Board of Selectmen is considering new fees � including charging residents for the disposal of household garbage and construction and demolition debris for the first time � rather than covering the deficit through the tax base.
Ironically, the $4.7 million deficit in the solid waste enterprise fund is nearly the same amount as the total townwide deficit that has prompted town and school officials to consider layoffs, salary freezes and reductions or the elimination of town services.
While most town departments do not cover their payroll and operating expenses through their own revenue � the Our Island Home elder-care facility, for example, generates a nearly $3 million annual shortfall � the size and unexpected increase in expenses at the landfill have greatly added to the budgetary crisis now facing the town. The total solid waste enterprise fund budget is expected to top $8.2 million in the next fiscal year.
As the Selectmen consider numerous possibilities, including the implementation of a sticker system, in which no vehicle would be admitted into the landfill without a town-issued sticker, or licensing the island�s trash-hauling companies to pass on fees to their customers, the board is also in closed-door negotiations with Waste Options, the Rhode Island company which operates the landfill, to identify any other possible savings. Several selectmen said the talks with Waste Options have been the most productive and positive negotiations with the contractor in years.
�Those are the misnomers: That the taxes pay for all of it and that Waste Options is ripping us off, but neither are true,� said selectman Patty Roggeveen, who is on the subcommittee that has been negotiating with the landfill operator. �So do we make up the difference by fees or increasing taxes?�
Roggeveen said the town�s special counsel for solid waste issues recently informed the board that Nantucket is the only community in the Cape and Islands region that does not currently charge for residential household trash disposal through a fee or sticker program. It was unclear, however, how many towns charged residents for solid waste expenses through both taxes and fees together.
The Selectmen are also weighing the possibility of a �pay-as-you-throw� program to recover the cost of accepting and disposing of household garbage and construction and demolition (C&D) waste, as well as an annual assessment to island households that utilize commercial haulers for trash removal.
�We�re looking at every possible option,� selectman Michael Kopko said. �Nobody wants to see anyone fee-ed to death, we�re all sensitive to that. There�s raising taxes or finding general-fund money somewhere and there�s raising fees and seeing what we can work out with the contractor. I expect we�ll end up closing the gap through a combination of those elements.�
Since Town Meeting voters approved a 25-year contract with Waste Options to run the landfill in 1997, the costs associated with accepting and processing waste have continued to escalate. When the contract was signed a decade ago, the town was under orders from the state Department of Environmental Protection to modernize and clean up the landfill operation, and Waste Options has made great strides in doing so.
As an enterprise fund, the landfill operation is intended to be self-funding, with payroll and operating costs covered by user fees. Yet the costs incurred in the solid waste enterprise fund have necessitated voters to approve a $1.9 million operating override during the 1998 Town Meeting, and another $686,588 operating override in 2006 to cover large deficits. Technically known as a �general fund subsidy� to the solid waste enterprise fund, the overrides have spread the costs of the landfill deficits over the taxbase, and have increased 2.5 percent each year under Proposition 2 1/2.
In the past two years, however, the landfill deficits have grown substantially, as taxpayers doled out $3.5 million in the 2007 fiscal year, and $2.9 million in the 2008 fiscal year to the enterprise fund. In addition to the overrides, the town was forced to pay $761,000 to Waste Options as part of a settlement agreement following arbitration proceedings, and also approved budget transfers from the reserve fund or other sources in the amount of $500,500 over the last two fiscal years.
The $4.7 million budget shortfall projected for next year has been driven by a number of factors, including the added costs of shipping construction and demolition waste off-island, rather than putting it in the landfill, which was mandated by the DEP two years ago; the evaporation of all revenue from selling recycled materials, as the market for such products has tanked with the economy; and lost revenue from reductions of C&D volume and materials being diverted from the landfill.
The town�s solid waste consultant, George Aronson, of CommonWealth Resource Management Corp., has also cited the �policy decision� not to charge for residential C&D and bulky waste, as well as higher expenses from a spike in the Consumer Price Index, which dictates fee levels, as the causes of the rising deficit.
The current $380 per ton fee for commercial C&D waste had previously generated so much revenue for the town that it subsidized other parts of the landfill operation, including residential-waste disposal. But when a new state regulation forced the town to foot the bill for shipping C&D waste off-island two years ago, the profit margin shrunk considerably, and the economic recession that has slowed new construction to a crawl has further reduced the volume of C&D coming into the landfill, which has also affected the bottom line.
The board is also investigating whether private haulers are illegally handling and shipping C&D waste on the island, thus diverting the material � and the revenue � from the municipal landfill. In the coming months, the Selectmen will consider additional enforcement measures to curb any illegal handling of C&D waste by private companies, and the possibility of close monitoring of the disposal of all commercial C&D waste through building permits.

(Note: This review pertains to the UK Region 2 PAL format release available on www.amazon.co.uk)
By Adrian Smith
Cecil B. DeMille will always be remembered for his
lavish historical epics like The Ten Commandments (1923 and again in
1956), Sign of the Cross (1932) and Samson and Delilah (1949).
However, with over one hundred and sixty credits as either director or
producer, he also worked in plenty of other genres. Following two flops, This
Day and Age (1933) and Four Frightened People (1934), Paramount head
Adolph Zukor insisted he try to replicate the success of Sign of the Cross
with another visual spectacle. DeMille agreed and cast Claudette Colbert in the
lead role of Cleopatra (she had already starred in both Sign of the
Cross and Four Frightened People and was about to win the Oscar for It
Happened one Night (1934)).
The plot focuses on Cleopatra's relationship with
Julius Caesar (Warren William), who initially wishes to conquer Egypt, but
having been seduced by the Queen of the Nile, he instead pledges Rome's support
and protection. This ultimately leads to his downfall and assassination in the
Senate, and his right-hand man Marc Anthony (Henry Wilcoxon) takes joint power
with Caesar's heir Octavian (Ian Keith). Determined to once again subjugate
Egypt, Marc Anthony heads to the Nile and meets with Cleopatra aboard her
incredibly extravagant barge. He is in turn seduced and takes Caesar's place as
protectorate of Egypt, something which severely displeases Octavian and the
Senate back home. This is a piece of history which, thanks to the movies, is
very well known. The pleasure here comes not from wondering how it will turn
out, but the visual spectacle we are treated to on the journey.
Former United States Postmaster General Will Hays
had been tasked with cleaning up the motion picture industry following the
great tide of scandal and public outcry over Hollywood decadence during the
1920s. This had in part been prompted by the death of actress Virginia Rappe
following her attendance at an orgy with Fatty Arbuckle in 1921. In 1930 Hays
published a set of industry rules which became known as the Hays Code or
Production Code, and whilst official censorship was not in force, any movie
which did not comply would find it extremely difficult to get distribution. The
rules particularly clamped down on any form of sexual activity, with the first
rule "No picture shall
be produced that will lower the moral standards of those who see it,"
ensuring audiences were to get as little thrills as possible in the movie
theatre. Incredibly the studios remained in voluntary subscription to the Hays
code until the late 1960s. Fortunately in the early 1930s the code was only
just developing its power over Hollywood and some productions did manage to
escape, Cleopatra being one of them. DeMille had flirted with erotic
imagery before, most notoriously with Claudette Colbert's nude bathing scene in
Sign of the Cross. Cleopatra is filled with the kind of steamy,
sexually-charged atmosphere that Hollywood would struggle to depict again for
many years. Colbert's costumes in particular are eye-popping in every sense.
The sets of the
movie also live up to DeMille's reputation, and must have filled every sound
stage on the Paramount lot. He had an eye for spectacle and Cleopatra is
brimming with it, whether it's the opulent palaces or the climactic sea battle,
surprisingly graphic for 1934. The pacing is good, with plenty of story covered
in its one hundred minutes. The makers of the Elizabeth Taylor-starring remake
in 1963 could have learned a lot from this one. Claudette Colbert's performance
is perfect as the sexually alluring queen willing to do whatever it takes to
protect Egypt, even if her suitors, Caesar and Marc Anthony, are rather boorish
and ham-fisted. This is a film where the cast appear to hail from New York
rather than the ancient world, but this does not matter when the gorgeous
imagery arrests your senses all the way through.
This new dual
format (Blu-ray and DVD) release from Eureka features a tremendous HD transfer
authorised by Universal, and some nice documentaries covering DeMille,
Claudette Colbert and the background to the Production Code. A commentary by
film historian F.X. Feeney and forty page booklet crammed with essays and
imagery is also included. This is a highly recommended release.

Spending The Day At The Beach This Summer? Plumbing Problems You May Have When You Arrive Home
Posted on: 13 May 2015
A day at the beach is a great time for the entire family. Your children can have fun playing in the ocean water, while you have fun sitting back in your beach chair relaxing. Be careful when you get home, however, because you may have problems you are not ready for.
Sand in the Washing Machine
When you visit a beach, sand gets everywhere--from your clothing, beach towels, and inside your beach bag. When you put these things in your washing machine, it can damage your clothing and damage the drum over time. This is because sand is abrasive. Sand can also get into the pump or drain hose.
You can try to do a few things to fix this problem. Let your washer sit for a day or two to completely dry out. Use a vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment, and remove the sand with it. Besides using the vacuum cleaner around the inside, vacuum under the rim of the washer. To take extra precaution, wet a paper towel and run it around the rim of the washer.
Because the sand may be in the drain hose or pipe, a plumber should be called to clean it out for you. He or she can also check if there is sand anywhere else that you may not be able to see.
Shower Draining Slow
Washing off in the shower to remove sand can clog up the drain. Rinse yourself off outside before you come in, if possible. Make sure you look inside your bathing suit, as sand can hide there too. Shake out your hair to see if sand is there also.
Not only sand can clog up a drain after a trip to the beach. If you have heavy oils applied to your skin to help with sunburn, or a creamy lotion like sunblock on your body, it can cause the shower to clog up when you rinse it off. This is especially true if a lot of people use the same shower when you get home.
Try to unclog the shower yourself using a clog removal product you can purchase at most home supply stores. Follow the directions on the bottle on how to use the product you purchased. In most cases, you pour the solution down the drain and let it sit for a few hours, and then check if the shower works normally again.
Make sure you remove sand from everything before you step inside your home the next time you visit the beach to keep these plumbing problems from happening again.

This review originally appeared in Czech translation in the 03/01/09 edition of Lidové Noviny.
It had been a long time since I'd visited Pizzeria Grosseto.
I knew I had blacklisted the place a few years ago, but I couldn't remember why. A rude server, or overcooked pasta, perhaps – one of the usual Czech suspects. With so many bad restaurant experiences under my belt, it can get hard to keep track of what offense happened where.
On a recent Wednesday evening, I passed by Grosseto's original location near Vítězné náměstí. The pizzeria was overflowing with customers, as it has been since the day it opened back in 1996. At that time, the neighborhood had only a few restaurants; now, although Dejvice is still pitifully lacking in dining options compared to Vinohrady or Žižkov, there are plenty of other options. So why does everyone still flock to Grosseto?
For one thing, it's a pizzeria, and everyone likes pizza. And Grosseto really does make good pies; many credit the restaurant with being the first to bring Italian-style pizza to the Czech masses. As the story goes, two Czech would-be restaurant owners, on a visit to the town of Grosseto in Tuscany, approached a pizza chef named Gianfranco Turbanti and asked him to move to Prague. A few weeks later, Mr. Turbanti arrived in Dejvice, son in tow, and set about the laborious task of constructing a wood-burning pizza oven to his very exact specifications.
Before Grosseto, "pizza" largely meant poor-quality dough covered in Eidam, párek, and a ketchup-based sauce. A few real Italian pizzerias, such as Rugantino, were around, but they were largely patronized by expats and tourists, not locals. There were a couple of American-style pizza joints, too: Pizza Hut and New York Pizza, both now defunct, as well as Chicago's Famous Pizza, formerly located in a prime spot on Malé Náměstí but now downgraded to a delivery-only service based out of Pankrác.
True Italian pizza is almost a different dish entirely, and it's the type of pie that has turned out to be most appealing to local tastes – although it, too, varies from region to region and from one pizzeria to the next. Grosseto's crusts are thin but not quite crispy, and have the inimitable smokiness that comes from a good wood-burning oven like Gianfranco's. The selection of toppings is, to my taste, a little heavy on meats, cheeses, and cream (the signature Grosseto pie comes with chicken breast, mozzarella, gorgonzola, and Parmesan) and low on vegetables (they do, however, put arugula on some of their pizzas, as do lots of Italian restaurants nowadays, and they use fresh mushrooms, which many do not). And although their pizza sauce is not very interesting – it tastes as if the tomatoes were taken straight from the can with no added seasoning – the overall quality of the ingredients is good and the pizza is well-made and tasty.
So why is so much of the other food so bad? The pastas were dismal, thanks not to their being overcooked (all of the pasta dishes I tasted were surprisingly al dente), but because they had been boiled in unsalted water. I have written about this particular problems many times before, including, I believe, in my last review of an Italian restaurant. But I will repeat these words again: you must salt the pasta water. Unless a person has cirrhosis of the liver and is following a strict no-sodium diet, there is no reason why any of us should suffer unsalted pasta.
Which I did, when I ate the pappardelle ai funghi porcini (195 CZK) at Grosseto. The tasteless noodles were homemade, at least, but they stuck together in messy clumps; luckily, the unexciting cream sauce contained plenty of porcini mushrooms that partially offset the dish's general blandness. It was a similar story with the spaghetti con aglio, olio e peperoncino (125 CZK), a dish so simple in flavor that it is almost unbearable to eat without salt.
According to the law of inept seasoning, of course, missing salt in one dish must be compensated by too much salt in another. And so it was with Grosseto's terrible tomato soup (48 CZK) and its otherwise good bruschette al pomodoro (69 CZK). The minestrone con verdure (45 CZK), meanwhile, was full of overcooked veggies and too-soft pasta shells; the tiramisu (79 CZK) might have been a winner if the ladyfingers had been soaked in espresso as they should be. Basically, everything other than the pizza was a just a little bit off.
And that included the service. When the waiter brought me the wrong pizza, he argued with me about what I had actually ordered. "You asked for number 27," he insisted. I told him that I had not ordered by number, but by name – I wanted the pizza Parma (185 CZK), which came with tomato sauce, Parma ham, fresh tomatoes and basil, not one with regular ham and a cream sauce. He had obviously guessed at the number and written it down incorrectly. Grudgingly, he took the pizza away, saying the replacement would come in ten or fifteen minutes. It came in 30 minutes, with no apology, long after the rest of my table had finished eating.
Mistakes happen, of course, but when they do, the waiter should be nice about it and try to accommodate the guest as soon as possible. That, however, would have involved him asking the pizza chef to rush the order and therefore acknowledging that he had done something wrong. But admitting to and apologizing for one's mistakes is not, I've noticed, the national forte.
Neither, apparently, is peripheral vision. As I tried to ask for the check, waiter after waiter walked by without a glance in our table's direction, like horses with blinders on. A few meters away, a bored-looking waitress stared off into space as she massaged lotion into her hands. Aha, I thought, so this was why I'd blacklisted Grosseto. Mystery solved.
Now if only they would let me leave.

Restaurant Review: Grosseto
11 comments:
- Pivní Filosof said...
Another reason why I don't like Grosseto in Dejvice, and I this applies to all the other branches as well, are those little tables where you can't possibly accommodate two pizzas (let alone three) that are way too close to each other. They try to cram as many people as possibly making dining there a pretty unpleasant experience.
I like (or used to like, haven't been there for some time) is Canzone in Eliašová or Siesta up in Hanspaulka.

- Ben Hodson said...
Canzone is still very good. I stop there each Friday night on my way home for Pizza for the family.
I like Grossetto for take out Pizza as well but agree with the service and issues and blandness of other dishes there.
- Jun 29, 2009, 5:24:00 PM
I have sworn off Grossetto's for years. Thanks, Laura, for putting my soul at easy that I am not missing anything. My favorite pizza restaurant is on Melantrichova street (name unknown). Across from the three crowns (tre corunni). Lovely pizza and pasta - and shocking, in the heart of downtown. I just wish their tables had more legroom...

Ok. I just found the name of the restaurant that I think does good pizzas. Funiculi Funicula. It is on Melantrichova street - and worth the stop.
- Jul 2, 2009, 11:38:00 AM
- Laura Baranik said...
Great! I'm surprised that any place on Melantrichova is good, too. But I'll definitely try it out.
- Jul 2, 2009, 1:10:00 PM
Hi, Do you or anyone know when the first Komotra Pizzeria opened near narodni? We used to go there from 1995 and they had great pizzas and I'll never forget the queing down the stairs sometimes! Does anyone know if they are still good?
- Jul 6, 2009, 1:11:00 PM

They are closed for several years now. There's some uninspiring Czech restaurant in place of it I believe.
- Jul 6, 2009, 9:06:00 PM
- Kacenka said...
No! Kmotra is still alive and well! Still very crowded. I think they were the first Pizza place in Prague. I think they have quite good food for very nice prices. They're on the street "V Jircharich"
- Jul 7, 2009, 3:51:00 PM
I have made the mistake of going to Kmotra for lunch about a year ago and I promissed myself never to go there again. Service was lousy and the food was bordering on inedible...

- Jennifer said...
I frequent the Grosseto out in Pruhonice and have no complaints. Perhaps the roominess of the space makes it easier to function (for the staff)...I hadn't noticed the lack of salt, but I'll try to notice next time I order pasta there. I think their meat dishes are lovely - the outdoor grill in summer is fantastic. And the waitstaff is easy on the eyes as well, at least for the ladies and gay men, since there are almost NO women working there...something I always wondered about...
It's funny - we just got back from Italy and had all the same service wackiness that you mention at Dejvice Grosseto at a restaurant in Sardinia - wrong pizza, ages to get the bill - we waited literally half an hour for the bill after asking for it at least 4 times, plus forgotten beverages, etc etc. And we did make an effort to speak Italian, even though it ended up mixed with bits of English and German.

Festive Performances
Leeds West Academy students have been celebrating the festive season with a Christmas Concert and a Foundation School service at St. Thomas' Parish Church in Stanningley.
The Christmas Concert is a showcase of Performing Arts from all year groups and Sixth Form, including specially choreographed dance pieces, newly devised drama and a host of festive musical numbers. The evening is a purely extra-curricular activity led by students from rehearsal to performance, presented with lighting and sound from a student technical crew.
As is tradition, a cameo appearance was made by Principal Nick Hinchliffe, who said: "A huge thank-you to everybody who attended the evening with massive thanks to all of our skilled performers. Every year the Christmas Concert gets better and better. The talent on display was outstanding, with astonishing dance, drama and music. We couldn't hope for a better start to the festive season."
Year 7 also spent a day at St. Thomas' Parish Church in Stanningley, performing a series of musical numbers and carols as part of a public service. Music Teacher Mrs Kurij added: "We've had so many kind comments from those who attended the service, praising our Year 7 performers. Well done to everyone who took part in the day and very special thanks to St. Thomas' for such a special collaboration this Christmas."
Throughout the final week of term there will be further festive performances from students and staff as part of Rewards Assemblies, recognising achievement and progress this term.

From the label:
"Nozinja is Richard Mthetwa, an electronic music producer based in the Limpopo province of South Africa, and the charismatic architect of the Shangaan electro sound. From its roots as the frantic heartbeat of Nozinja's rural locale, where dancers convene at weekly street parties, bouncing on their heels and shaking their bell-like xibelani skirts in the ferocious heat, Shangaan electro has become a recognised genre in its own right, a burgeoning, radicalising influence on dance music worldwide. Explosive, ecstatic and celebratory, it's the head-spinning collision of the soulful traditional song of the Shangaan people with the high-speed energy and limitless possibilities of cutting-edge music production, and it has ensnared the ears and limbs of dancers, beatmakers and DJs alike. At the heart of it all is Nozinja, who has been diligently forging the Shangaan electro style from his tiny home studio for the best part of a decade. A homegrown super-producer of sorts, Nozinja has carved out an Afro-futurist evolution through countless productions/collaborations and the regular street-dance competitions which he organises, all documented and self-distributed via the plethora of DVDs, CDs and tapes he has released over the years. After several trips to Europe to convert new fans with his team of dancers in tow, in 2014 Nozinja signed to Warp and released the hypnotic, digitally scrambled single 'Tsekeleke', signalling a fresh direction for the Shangaan originator. Later that year an encounter with junglist ruffian Tessela led to a studio collaboration on 'Wa Chacha', released as a split 12" containing each producer's interpretation of the Shangaan track – further proof that Nozinja's sound is at much at home besides new-school western production styles as it is on its folk-cultural home turf. That collaboration has set the stage for the next act in this extraordinary tale: spring 2015 sees Nozinja release his full-length debut on Warp. Nozinja Lodge sees him truly hit his stride as a producer, testing the frantic upper limits of Shangaan electro on white-knuckle, rave-channelling cuts like 'Baby Do You Feel Me' and 'Vatswelani', while enjoying the freedom to take his foot off the gas and bring a tender, lilting touch to the sound on 'Vomaseve Hina' and closing track 'Jaha'. It's a dance record with a unique soul, stamped with the spirit of the Shangaan people, their language and musical history, while endlessly chasing the visceral thrill of the dance. For Nozinja, his journey from small town businessman to international Shangaan ambassador has taught him that the sky is the limit – and his dreams are only getting bigger. With imagination, perseverance and an iron-clad belief in his cause, Nozinja now stands at the vanguard of the next generation of African music; no longer a novelty or fad, but a new chapter in the globalised story of electronic music."
Nozinja Lodge is out June 1 on Warp; listen to "Nwa Baloyi" below.

"These jump-up bastards believe they've got a right to decide for everyone, but they have less savvy than I did on the day I was born."
Eltofa Patriarch
General information
The Kja Kingdom is one of the young yet extremely ambitious civilizations. When it became clear that Asgar won't interfere, Kja were the first to restore "justice".
Their lives are comparatively short, but they develop and learn fast.
Kja evolved from birds, and are light and fast. Due to faster metabolism they grow rapidly and their average life-span is about 50 years, but in exchange they get lightning reflexes and the ability to move quickly.
Kja have hollow and thin bones, and are lightly-built, so without brute force advantage they mostly rely on speed.
Political order
The Kja state is a conglomerate of kingdoms ruled by the High King.
Each king relies on his noble houses and can act independently. Any king has a right to expand his domain as much as he can. If a kingdom faces a problem it can't handle on its own, it summons the other kingdoms to aid it.
This makes negotiations with Kja ineffective, because even if the High King agrees to something, the other kings may not comply with the terms of such agreement.

I love TEDtalks. Most of them are inspiring. Some just change your life.
When I saw this one, there was just so much resonation for me that I have to share this with you.
It's about having the courage to be imperfect. And about believing that you are enough. And in a way, about the power of qualitative research and storytelling.

CABE support for Crossrail at Paddington
CABE's Crossrail design review panel has given its support to Weston Williamson's designs for the Paddington Integrated Project. When complete it will create a much improved experience for passengers using the Hammersmith & City underground line.
The taxi rank, currently on Departures Road, will be moved to allow the development of a new concourse for Crossrail. The new taxi facilities will include a ramp off Bishops Bridge Road, which will eventually be incorporated into a commercial over site development. Whilst the cladding of this ramp is intended to be temporary, it may be in place for some time, because there are no fixed timings on the commercial development. Therefore, the panel advised Crossrail to rethink the proposed industrial-looking perforated metal cladding.
The panel urged Crossrail to involve artists at an early stage, in particular, to work with the architects on the design of decorative glazing proposed for the Hammersmith & City line concourse. This could add to the distinctive character of the station while also helping people to find their way around.
Deborah Denner, Senior design review advisor, comments: "Paddington is a good example of the way many Crossrail stations need to be knitted into sensitive historic contexts. We've been working with Crossrail over the past year, advising on these projects through a dedicated design review panel, and we're pleased to be able to support this scheme for planning approval."
This current application does not include the design of the concourse to the south of Paddington station. Other developments are also being considered and the panel expressed its concern that designs should not be developed in a 'piecemeal manner.' Network Rail intend to lead in developing the masterplan for the whole station – along with Crossrail, London Underground, English Heritage and Westminster City Council – and the panel has stressed that this important work must begin soon.

Affordable 1-on-1 home tutoring by top Emory grads! 4.9/5.0 Satisfaction Rating*
Award-Winning Private Anatomy Tutoring in Atlanta, GA
One-on-one, personalized tutoring
Private In-Home and Online Anatomy Tutoring in Atlanta, GA
Receive personally tailored Anatomy lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.
How can a Anatomy tutor help you?
Anatomy is an important class for students studying medicine, biology, or any natural science. Many of these students may have to take multiple anatomy classes, so it is important to get the basics down the first time through an anatomy course. However, anatomy is a tricky subject with many moving parts (literally!). It can be overwhelming for a student to learn about the body without guidance, but with the help of an anatomy tutor in Atlanta, Georgia, the process could be simplified. The educational directors at Varsity Tutors can help match you with a great tutor.
Anatomy is a subject that builds on itself. Each part of the body relies on another system in order to work properly. Without the skeletal system, the muscular system wouldn't work. Without the respiratory system, the muscular system wouldn't be able to move. And, without the nervous system, your respiratory system wouldn't know how to do its job. To understand how the body works, you need to know each step. With a personal tutor, your anatomy lessons can be catered to your specific needs. Each lesson, your tutor can prepare sessions that focus on the areas of anatomy that you struggle with the most. When you work one-on-one with an Atlanta anatomy tutor, you can get individualized attention in your efforts to succeed.

Zandvoort next for WTCR Alfa Romeos
Romeo Ferraris, the company responsible for developing the Alfa Romeo Giulietta TCR that races in the WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup presented by OSCARO – has higher hopes for a strong showing Circuit Zandvoort from 19-21 May.
Run by Team Mulsanne in WTCR OSCARO, the all-Italian machines continue to show promise but drivers Fabrizio Giovanardi and Gianni Morbidelli once again went unrewarded at the Nürburgring Nordschleife last weekend.
"The WTCR round at the Nordschleife was something unique and so will be the next stop at Zandvoort as well," said Romeo Ferraris' Operations Manager Michela Cerruti. "We have understood that it is essential to adapt better to the Yokohama tyres used in the [WTCR], to which we were not used, especially in qualifying, in order to show the true potential of our cars.
"In the race, Fabrizio and Gianni, who was racing on the Nordschleife for the first time, were able to cope with the many variables of the Green Hell, although the outcome was pretty [disappointing]. Fabrizio suffered a puncture while he was having a really good pace, while Gianni was the faultless victim of nasty accident, which luckily did not have serious consequences."

I sent some housing possibilities out to a few of you two weeks ago soliciting advice, but turns out I didn't go with any of those (more tricks!). I did not send out photos/info on the one I ended up in, because I didn't think I would get it – as there were several people interested and my bid was 140 euro/month less than the posted price. BUT, I did get it, and that's where I am now.
First let's look at my adorable neighborhood. I live in Portobello. The neighborhood originally housed lower to middle class workers, and then became home to artists and politicians. In the early 1900s the neighborhood turned again, and became the center of the Jewish community in Ireland, after so many refugees settled there (I live 2 blocks from the Irish Jewish Museum). The 6th president of Israel grew up 2 doors down. A nice holdover from this time is the Bretzel Bakery – a Kosher bakery – about 3 blocks from my house. Many of the Jewish residents emigrated to the States during and after WWII.
Most importantly, I've moved from Shaw, DC to just around the corner from the birthplace of George Bernard Shaw – which all just feels full circle and nice. Other famous former neighborhood residents include Jack B. Yeats, Cearbhall Ó Dálaigh, William Mulholland (of Mulholland Drive), James Joyce's parents (in childhood, and in marriage pre-James), and of course, the fictional Leopold Bloom.
AND – my house sits on one of the sites where Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite! once took place!
Here is a typical house on my street, replete with greenery and adorable old car:
The ones that don't have front yards look like this:
And the cute little cottages look like this:
Here are all the styles in one photo:
I live near the Grand Canal, which is a nice place to sit with a book. It's also very multimodal: there is a pedestrian-only path along the canal, and then a separated bike lane, and then the car lane. All of these are separated by curbs or trees. Also, as it's a canal and I see operable locks, I assume my multimodal list could potentially include boats – but I haven't seen one of those yet.
To the main event! I've mentioned that I live in a castle, and that's certainly what it feels like. However, in all honesty, it is a renovated church. St. Kevin's Church, to be exact. According to the plaque in the lobby (which is the middle of the nave of the church), it was built in the 1800s courtesy of a bequest from Miss Jane Shannon of Rathmines (the next neighborhood south). In the 1990s it was renovated into apartments courtesy of some rich person who lives in the Dublin area (supposition – I have no idea, really, aside from the mid-90s bit).
Anyway, St. Kevins/Kono Kastle looks like this on the outside:
Anyway, you go in that side door that says St. Kevin's and up the stairs. I'm on the 2nd (US) or 1st (EU) floor, depending on your nationality.
To complete the castle theme, my key looks like this:
You walk in to a little hallway and pass a bathroom to your right. No photos because it's not exciting. Straight ahead is the living room. You'll notice I've already got my colors hung, and a basil plant – so I'm basically nested.
If you walk towards that glorious window and turn around, you'll see my kitchen, framed by fun church/castle archway:
Also featured in that photo is the ugly cardboard box. Inside the ugly cardboard box is the previous tenant's full guitar hero set. Includes a guitar, a drum set, and the CD. Since I don't have a TV, or a playstation (or whatever it runs on), I haven't decided what to do with it.
Turning right, around the big couch, is the entrance to my bedroom. The bedroom has a sloping exposed beam roof with a skylight. The skylight can be opened, which is quite nice. It's east facing, so I suspect I'll be grateful for that come winter when the sun is rising as I do, but during these freakishly long summer days (I am so much further north that I realized – the sun sets at 10:30!), I'm going to have to figure out some sort of skylight curtain.
Here's another angle where I squeezed into the corner in an attempt to show both the skylight and the church/castle arches:
Absolutely the best part of the apartment, and the part that makes it most castley, are the windows. Here they are in all their glory.
Don't mind the rain you're seeing through those panes. It is Dublin after all. I took all the photos in this post on the same day. You'll notice that when I was walking around outside there was nary a cloud to be seen, however, the second I entered the apartment there was a massive drenching downpour. The weather here is fickle.
So, now you've seen my place! Kono Kastle is open to visitors at any time. Please come! Also, keep checking back for future posts. I'll likely be posting about Dublin, struggles with Irish bureaucracy, biking, my obscenely small shower, Trinity, where to get the best Guinness, the trials and tribulations of getting internet access, eating local, the hoards of Italians in Dublin, and my old-man pub friends next.
I'll be sending out the email with my change of address soon. Let me know if you want to make sure you're on that list.

MicroRNA-26a-mediated regulation of interleukin-2 expression in transformed avian lymphocyte lines
MicroRNA-26a-mediated regulation of interleukin-2 expression in transformed avian lymphocyte lines - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
Cancer Cell International
, 10:15
First Online: 04 May 2010Received: 22 January 2010Accepted: 04 May 2010
BackgroundMicromiRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that play critical roles in the induction of various cancers, including lymphomas induced by oncogenic viruses. While some of the miRNAs are oncogenic, miRNAs such as miR-26a are consistently downregulated in a number of cancers, demonstrating their potential tumor suppressor functions. Global miRNA expression profiles of a number of virus-transformed avian lymphoma cell lines have shown downregulation of gga-miR-26a expression, irrespective of molecular mechanisms of transformation or the viral aetiology. The neoplastic transformation of lymphocytes by many viruses accompanies high levels of proliferative responses, mostly mediated through cytokines such as IL-2. Chicken IL-2 can modulate T-cell proliferation and cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo and dysregulation of IL-2 expression is observed in diseases such as leukaemia.
ResultsThe expression levels of gga-miR-26a in chicken lymphoma cells transformed by 3 distinct avian oncogenic viruses, viz Marek-s disease virus MDV, avian leukosis virus ALV and Reticuloendotheliosis virus REV were consistently downregulated compared to the levels in the normal lymphocytes. This downregulation of miR-26a regardless of the viral etiology and molecular mechanisms of transformation was consistent with the tumor suppressor role of this miRNA. Notwithstanding this well-established role in cancer, we demonstrate the additional role of this miRNA in directly targeting chicken IL-2 through reporter and biochemical assays. The downregulation of miR-26a can relieve the suppressive effect of this miRNA on IL-2 expression.
ConclusionsWe show that miR-26a is globally downregulated in a number of avian lymphoma cells irrespective of the mechanisms of transformation, reiterating the highly conserved tumor suppressor function of this miRNA. However, with the potential for directly targeting chicken IL-2, the downregulation of miR-26a in these tumor cells could relieve the inhibitory effect on IL-2 expression assisting in the proliferative features of the transformed lymphocyte lines.

Glory Sandrin is looking for her perfect Prince Charming. She's in love with Edoardo Pisani, her fellow lawyer and boss, but Edoardo is definitely not the man for her. He changes women as often as he changes his shirt. So when Edoardo asks her to be his ",pretend", girlfriend, Glory's first instinct is to run for the hills. But her friend's job relies on her helping Edoardo out. Can she be his girlfriend for a few short weeks and remain sane? Edoardo Pisani has been burnt badly by marriage, it's now off his list of things to do. He likes his life the way it is, and no sassy blonde will convince him otherwise. He wants to be Lord Mayor of Melbourne and needs a ",nice", girl for a few short weeks. Trouble is, Glory has a way of getting under his skin. Sensuality Level: Behind Closed Doors Iris Leach loves all books, loves movies, and especially loves writing romance.

Nearly 100 fruit juice boxes containing liquid heroin were intercepted Wednesday in a shipment from Colombia. The juice boxes were part of a private shipment that wasn't destined for the United States food supply, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents said. The juice would be deadly if consumed.
This would have been a mess if they had made it stateside or worse yet… on store shelves.

A Parisian Evening at Island Moving Company's Evocative 'Nuit Blanche'
Dancers dove into the pool for an aquatic ballet, an opera singer trilled in the pergolas, and New York's Tin Pan Band led 400 guests through the spectacular grounds of Ronald Lee Fleming's Bellevue House, from performance to exciting performance. The magical trip evoked Paris' legendary all-night arts festival.
Nuit Blanche's theme this year was "Opéra Garnier," inspired by the Paris Opera House with its colorful Marc Chagall ceiling, featuring décor by artist/designer John Sawicki.
Newport's resident contemporary ballet company invited musicians, singers, painters and other artists to join with them in short performances set among the allées, follies and ornamental pools of the gardens. The evening also included a live auction, hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, and dancing for all to music by New York's Tin Pan Band.
Ballroom dancers from Floor- Time studios graced the garden opera singer Youngchul Park sang, musician Taeyoung Lee played, and the Parisian duo On Est Gentils acted. Violinist John Bergin, mime Vlad Tenenbaum and musical duo La Merchante et le Connard performed for the crowd. Olympic bronze medalist figure skater Marissa Castelli from Cranston was a special guest.
Nuit Blanche colloquially means sleepless night, and the dancing did indeed continue well into the night.

There's been so much talk about and anger towards Israel because of the wall Israel built in an effort to protect her citizens from suicide bombings. Only occasionally, though, does one hear that Egypt also built a wall — and the Palestinians are as determined to do away with the one wall as with the other:
Palestinian militant group of approximately 50 members attempted to create another passage in the wall separating Egypt and Gaza. the group of masked men set off an explosive near the concrete border wall on Thursday, Palestinian security officials said.
The explosion caused little damage to the wall, the officials said.
In the past, militants have blown holes in the wall, allowing unfettered passage between Egypt and Gaza. The official Rafah border crossing has been closed for much of the past few months, due to Israeli security warnings that have prevented European observers from reaching the internationally monitored border, AP reports.
Israel has been concerned that arms smugglers and Islamic militants could freely cross from Egypt's Sinai Desert into Gaza.

JP Morgan's Jamie Dimon said that banks are "under assault" from regulators. Dick Bove, vice president of equity research at Rafferty Capital, agrees, saying banks have essentially been "nationalised" as the U.S. government "controls" the industry.

Back-to-School Budgets: Not Just For Parents
This year's back-to-school shopping season will be quite different than years past, thanks to the focus on the economic recession and saving money. For retailers, back-to-school season is considered the second most important shopping season of the year (behind the holidays) and is often used to predict second half sales. Read MoreRead More

This is important for any oral appliance as it is likely to host odour-causing or staining microbes. It will also extend the usable lifetime of the product, as some microbes can degrade the surface and even affect the fit. These affordably priced products offer longer life and a far more hygienic solution to the problem of either snoring or obstructive sleep apnoea.

Adam Milstein is a philanthropist, activist, and real estate guru that is improving the world by educating others and supporting the Jewish people. Adam Milstein was born in Haifa, Israel, and in 1971, he joined the Israeli Defense Force and was active during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. After the war ended and his service came to an end, he attended the Israeli Institute of Technology, better known as Technion, and earned a Bachelor's of Science Degree in economics and business. He did so well that hr graduated Cum Laude, and when he moved to the United States, he finished off his schooling by earning an MBA at USC.
After receiving his MBA, Adam Milstein then began a career in real estate and eventually settled in as a Managing Partner at Hager Pacific Properties. When asked later on where he came up with the idea for Hager Pacific Properties, he commented that he was motivated to get into real estate because he could tell that his skills were not being given the proper recognition; he knew he would not get paid what he deserved. So, instead he decided to go out and earn it, directly, for himself. It only took him a few years as a broker before he was ready to invest in real estate on his own.
Adam Milstein has learned, over the years, that to make things happen, you really have to work hard and do more than others might. If you have a partner or co-worker who just isn't cutting it, you should make sure that whatever it is you are working on gets done properly by doing it yourself. He also believes that many people in real estate and other businesses fail, simply, because they do not follow up with their clients or customers. He finds the real estate world very exciting because of the way that it fluctuates, and he has learned, unlike many others, that it takes time to make a lot of money in real estate and that patience is key. Today, Adam Milstein takes a lot of the money he has earned and donates it to people who need it through his charity the Adam and Gila Milstein Family Foundation and to know more

The longest street name discovered in Gramsbergen
Tags: Excerpts from the Windmill
BRUSSELS Complaints by householders living on the Clos des Compagnons Batisseurs, a street in Evere near the Belgian capital, prompted Flemish broadcaster VRT to do a search for the longest street name in the country. The Evere householders soon learned it could have been worse, because various other places had even longer street names. The search also crossed the border into The Netherlands, where the Overijsssel town of Gramsbergen came out on top with Burgemeester Baron van Voerst van Lyndenstraat, one letter longer than any Flemish counterpart.

Listography.... 5 things that make you happy
In no particular order.......
1) hearing my son laugh.
2) watching J and the AC play silly games together.
3) the smell of baking when the cakes are just about to come out.
4) the warmness of a duvet, a man, 2 cats and a boy, all snugged up together watching tv on the sofa.
5) the sight of a pair of Tornado GR5's soaring through the air.
A lot of the things I love and which make me happy, are there because of what they represent, as well as what they actually are.
The first two represent recovery from grief and shock.
The second two represent family and safety and joy and love.
The last represents all that is true and good and supportive at a time when my world fell apart. The RAF didn't forget us, didn't devalue us, didn't leave us high and dry. They loved us, cherished us, supported us, and cared for us.
I'm going to link this up with Kates and then do some work. :-( It's all work lol! I need to find 3 things I use for differentiated maths!

My daughter is 6 and is about to start 1st grade. And every summer right before school starts each summer she starts having problems doing anything without me. Like going to grandma and grandpas to stay the night or even staying home with daddy while I go shopping. And is showing dislike for anything that doesn't involve mommy. What can I do to make this easier for her? Last year was pretty bad for about 2 months after she started but eventually, she was ok with help from the teacher every morning. I'm simply clueless!
Here are some thoughts I have. It might be that she takes a little while after the beginning of the school year before she gets adjusted.
Here are some tips for you.
1) Don't let on that you are feeling anxious at all about whats happening with her. Kids will feed off of your anxiety and that can really become something that exacerbates it.
2) When school starts, don't linger around when you drop her off.
3)Reassure her that she is safe and that her teachers are good people who will care for her and who she will have fun with. Let her see you talking to them and referring to them by name as if you are friendly.
4) Let her know what you are doing and when you will be back, and let her know you have confidence in her that she will have fun and be fine.
5) You can also provide her with a transitional picture of you, although she may be a little old for that. You can see if this is a helpful thing for if she starts to miss you.
I hope these ideas are helpful. If the anxiety lasts for more than two months, I would explore getting her into therapy.
Good Luck!

**Welcome to See Jane Work, a new column by Glamour fashion news director Jane Keltner de Valle, who will share insider updates from the fashion trenches. First up, Jane's first day of New York Fashion Week. Here we go!
1. Gearing up for Fashion Week with a special delivery from Karlie Kloss. Her Perfect 10 Karlie's Kookies make for a nutritious(-ish?!) snack between shows. Thanks, Karlie!
- I've known Karlie since she was a wee 15 (OK, she was pushing 6 feet even back then). Here she is last week, just before jetting to the airport for a pre-NYFW island vacation. Her Fashion Week essential? A new Mansur Gavriel backpack loaded up with healthy snacks. "My bag is like my refrigerator," she tells me. "I put meals in it to get me through the long days, along with my Apple earphones so I can take phone calls and multitask while I'm in hair and makeup—I carry my life in my bags!"
- The Jason Wu show is today, but I stopped by the designer's studio last week for a sneak peek at his collection. This is the spring 2015 Diane bag, named after his close friend and newly minted collaborator Diane Kruger.
- So how do models get ready for Fashion Week? In the case of Hilary Rhoda, weekly classes at Tracy Anderson and SoulCycle, plus destressing massages. "I recently tried cupping," she told me over coffee last week. Picture suction cups, needles (down the backs of her calves), and post-treatment bruising. "Not the best idea before Fashion Week, but it does work!" Serenity now, Hilary.
- One of my favorite new faces: Canadian Grace Mahary. Love that Diana Ross hair!
- A highlight from Day 1 of New York Fashion Week: Stuart Vevers' sophomore show at the helm of Coach. Get your name on the wait list now for the spring monster bags (complete with names like Buster and Emmanuel!). Here's Ondria Hardin holding my personal favorite.
- A lowlight from Day 1 of New York Fashion Week: My Celine heels snapped en route to the Creatures of the Wind show. Fashion emergency! Big thank you to Leather Spa for patching them up in time for the Honor show.
- My preferred mode of transport to the shows. [Dramatic pause] But seriously, wouldn't you love to see Anna Dello Russo arriving at Marc Jacobs in a swan taxi?! So long, summer 2014, and welcome to the fashion of spring 2015. This is Jane, over and out.

Another week has passed and time again for my weekly update. This week has been full of firsts for me.
I will start with an update on my Daughter for all those following how she is doing, she is no better, I have spent the week trying to speak to her Consultant with no joy. Our GP decided to refer her to CAHMS and I spoke to them on Monday, but she said they probably couldn't help after I described about her illness and what we wanted, but do have a telephone appointment and a face to face appointment booked in case. My Daughter had her first physio appointment on Thursday morning, as parking is a nightmare, I dropped my Daughter and Husband at the doors so she didn't have too far to go and picked them up after the appointment. Although formal diagnosis has not been made yet, her hospital notes are saying different, so it does look as if she has ME.
As I could not get to sleep Wednesday evening, I found myself at 2am Thursday morning emailing into her school again, and spoke to them on Thursday. They can not put any plan in place to help with her education until they have a letter confirming formal diagnosis. So I am stuck with what to do. As she can not cope with school or getting around, but they can not do anything much either. I did say about wanting her in school and maybe doing lunchbreak as well so she can socialise as well. am speaking to them again after Easter to see where we go.
She had a friend for a sleepover last night and it was lovely to hear chat and laughter, you could see in her face the pain and tiredness but she fought it so hard.
I have had a few firsts this week, I posted the other day about something I never thought I would say, and that was enjoying cleaning, I spent the afternoon cleaning my Daughters bedroom, stopping to chat and do some puzzles and we had so much fun, that I actually enjoyed myself. The rest of the housework I have been doing I have not enjoyed at all, so it didn't last long.
The other thing I have done that everyone who knows me knows I do not get involved with this at all, is gardening. I just hate the mud, the dirt and pointless weeding. But I painted the garden fence, and am really pleased with how lovely it looks. I potted some plants into tubs, sorted out our herbs and it is all starting to look lovely now. I just need to keep everything alive now.
I am also thrown with the days this weekend, yesterday I thought it was Saturday and today I think it is Sunday, I know I am not alone in this though, as everyone seems to be finding it the same.
Hope you have all had a good week and enjoy the Easter Weekend x

Outdoor security cameras have been around for a long time but it's only recently that they have become more accessible for your own home. These days it's easy to set up outdoor security cameras and the benefits are worthwhile.
Here are the top 6 benefits of outdoor security cameras for your home:
1. Scare away burglars
Outdoor security cameras are a great way to deter burglars from entering your property. 60% of convicted burglars said that the presence of outdoor security cameras influenced their decision to target another home without security cameras. Having a visible outdoor security camera can make an intruder rethink their decision to enter your property as they run the risk of having their identity caught on camera.
2. Be alerted of anyone coming onto your property
You'll always be the first to know if someone enters your property. One of the many great features of the Cammy Nighthawk outdoor security camera is that it sends you alerts straight to your phone if a person is detected entering your property, allowing you to take immediate action and call the police. Cammy's outdoor security cameras capture all motion detected events so can see all the comings and goings on your property and have that footage to use as evidence if needed.
3. Keep an eye on your backyard
If you want to keep a careful watch on your children while working inside, an outdoor security camera is a great way to do that from the comfort of your home. You can be inside making dinner and can switch to the live view on your Cammy app at the same time to check up on the kids and make sure they aren't getting up to too much mischief outside.
4. See who's at the front door
The most common point of entry for burglars is through the front door. So having an outdoor security camera monitoring your front door will help you keep alerted to see who's at the front door and if someone is trying to break in. With Cammy's outdoor camera you can also use the live view to see who is at the front door, is it just the kids coming home from school, a courier delivery or is it an intruder?
5. Watch over pool areas
For anyone who has a home pool, you know that pool safety is of utmost importance. For children under five majority of drowning incidents in Australia took place at a home swimming pool. Outdoor security cameras for your home can help add to the safety and security of your pool. Cammy's outdoor security camera can alert you if someone is detected near your pool and you can take action straight away. Having an outdoor security camera by your pool can also help you keep an eye on it when you are away and see if those pesky neighbours of yours are jumping the fence and helping themselves to a dip in your pool.
6. Protect your car
If you park your car on the street or driveway, it is at risk of getting stolen. Outdoor security cameras for your home make it easier to monitor your car and see if anyone is trying to break in. If someone is detected by your Cammy outdoor security camera near your car, you will receive an alert with footage of their face on camera. You can then call the police straight from the Cammy app to report the break in. For more information check out our tips on protecting your car from theft.
When setting up your outdoor security camera it's important to think about where entry points for an intruder may be so you can have all areas covered by your camera. For more information check out our blog about where to place your security cameras.
