Comparison of Heavy Labeled (SIL) Peptide versus SILAC Protein Internal Standards for LC-MS/MS Quantification of Hepatic Drug Transporters
Department of Pharmaceutics, University of Washington, P.O. Box 357610, Seattle, WA 98195, USA

We studied the precision of quantification of organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1), OATP1B3, OATP2B1, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in human livers by surrogate peptide based LC-MS/MS approach using two different internal standards: stable isotope labeled peptide (SIL) versus stable isotope labeled protein (SILAC). The SIL peptides were procured commercially and the SILAC proteins were generated in-house by labeling arginine and/or lysine residues in cells expressing these transporters. Liver tissue was homogenized and the membrane fraction was isolated. The membranes were trypsin digested and the peptides were analyzed using LC-MS/MS under optimized conditions. The precision in the quantification of proteins in three independently trypsin digested samples from each liver was calculated as the standard deviation of the log transformed protein concentration. The precision of the SIL internal standard method was either slightly (, paired t-test) better than that of the SILAC method (OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and P-gp) or not different (OATP2B1). Trypsin digestion, as measured by the response of the labeled peptide derived from the SILAC protein, was consistent across liver samples. These results indicate that when maximum trypsin digestion is ensured, the SIL internal standard method can be used with confidence for quantification of drug transporters.

You wouldn't let your loved one be treated for a heart attack by a well-meaning lay-person who had a tremendous compassion for heart disease. You would want the best cardiologist in town. Addiction and alcoholism is no different. You deserve the best. Come to LifeSync and experience the difference.
Geoffrey A. Booth, M.D. is one of the most sought after addiction medicine physicians in Malibu and the Los Angeles area. He has extensive experience in providing expert medical detoxification for the most complex clients. After earning his B.A. in psychology at California State University, Los Angeles, Dr. Booth attended New York Medical College. He completed his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at UCLA Olive View Medical Center and is Board-Certified in Addiction Medicine and Internal Medicine. After residency, Dr. Booth went into private practice where he garnered a statewide and nationwide referral base for patients who suffered from difficult-to-treat diagnoses.
Dr. Booth subsequently dedicated several years to providing medical services to the poor and uninsured. During this time, Dr. Booth was the Chief Medical Officer of three large urban Federally Qualified Health Centers and oversaw dozens of physicians and licensed health care providers. His responsibilities included supervising alcohol and drug and behavioral health departments. Over the years, Dr. Booth has treated thousands of addicts and now has dedicated most of his clinical time to providing medical care and detoxification to clients who suffer from substance abuse. He is committed to helping them establish the foundations for long-term sobriety.
"It is a courageous and monumental decision to leave the drink or drug you've known for so long and to reach out for a chance at freedom and a new life," says Dr. Booth. "We provide the love, hope, and professional care clients need to safely start this magical journey," he says.
While not working, Dr. Booth has a rich personal life filled with activities surrounded by friends and family.

While not at the office, Steve enjoys a rich personal life with his beautiful wife and children. He enjoys sports and staying active at the gym in addition to having a large and eclectic collection of music.
Being someone that struggled with addiction myself and finally made it to the other side after many short-lived attempts at sobriety, I have a sincere desire to help others find their way to the other side as well. I am passionate about helping people, and can truly relate to the person who is in the midst of their addiction. Sometimes we just need someone to hang beside us, even if we have to scrape our knees a few more times.
Mike's career in addiction treatment began through his own personal journey. He began working in treatment in 2009, and in 2013 he became a Certified Addictions Treatment Counselor (CATC I) through California Alcohol and Drug Educators (CAADE). Mike began working as an Addiction Counselor and is now a sought-after Program Manager. He has been instrumental in the development of Treatment programs in Los Angeles while also remaining involved in direct care. He believes that to effectively help a person struggling with addiction, they need to be guided towards a new way to live. This belief in addition to his unconditional positive regard for others is the reason he remains a trusted guide in the addiction community.

Josiah G. Bailey, retired farmer and highly respected citizen, Delavan Ill., was born in
Hillsboro, N. H., June 18, 1813, and there acquired his early education in the public
schools. After leaving school he engaged in farming until 1853 when he removed to
Pekin Tazewell County, where he resided until 1863, meanwhile holding the important
office of City Marshal for two years. For several years succeeding 1863, he was
engaged in farming at various localities. In 188, owing to the failure of his health, he
retired from active life und removed to Delavan, where he now resides with his son,
Henry A. Bailey, director in the Tazewell County National Bank.
Mr. Bailey's first pilgrimage to Tazewell County was in 1831, at which time he
encountered many hardships. After a year's residence here, he was obliged to return to
New Hampshire, his health broken by the epidemic of chills and ague then prevalent in
this part of the State. He remained East until 1853, when he returned to Tazewell
County, with his family to make this locality his permanent home.
Mr. and Mrs. Bailey enjoy excellent health, and are passing the remaining years of their
life in retirement. Mr. Bailey is a Baptist in religious belief and in politics has always been
a Republican. In September, 1838. he was married at Hillsboro. N. H., to Miss Catherine
Barns, who was born December 3, 1820, and they have had four children; Jerome D.,
Henry A., Emily J. (deceased), and Jennie (deceased).

50,000 M'sians duped in Iraqi scam
According to the report, most of them had lost between RM500 and RM20,000, paying inflated amounts for the Iraqi dinar after believing huge profits were guaranteed if the value of the currency improved.
Some have waited 11 years in vain for a supposed windfall.
They were told that each 25,000 dinar note, purchased for RM100, would be worth millions after the turmoil in Iraq ended and when the currency was re-valued, the report stated.
Bukit Aman Commercial Crimes Department assistant director Asst Comm Najmi Mustaffa said this was a get-rich-quick scheme.
Asst Comm Najmi advised the public to be wary of investments that sounded too good to be true, the report said.
This, he said, included those which promised huge returns in a short period.

Your life is a jigsaw puzzle
Sometimes we can experience moments of real tragedy and heartache in life. I wonder if you've ever had one of those moments, a situation that totally floors you.
If you're anything like me bible verses like Romans 8:28 can be tough to work through in these times. How can God be working all things together for good when so much suffering exists?
Recently I've started to view my life as a jigsaw puzzle, and each day of my life is represented by a single piece of this puzzle.
Some days are colourful and vibrant – full of joy and expectation.
Some days are less colourful.
Other days are just totally black.
I don't know if you've ever noticed but for a picture to come to life, there needs to be depth and dimension.
Even those shady and dark jigsaw puzzle pieces have a purpose in this regard. A picture can't come to life without some shading to provide definition. The darker colours help the brighter colours stand out more.
Ultimately the dark days can be used to help emphasise and highlight and draw attention to the colourful and vibrant parts of the overall jigsaw puzzle.
It might sound crazy but even the dark days of our lives end up playing a huge part in making our finished picture beautiful.
It's in our times of lament that we often learn life's most valuable lessons.
It's in our times of trouble that we remember to treasure what's most important to us.
It's in our difficult days that we learn to be more like Jesus.
Your life is a jigsaw puzzle and every day is important.
"And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose."

Florida football player vows to 'pull through' after knee injury, leg amputation
A Florida teenager is leaning on his teammates after suffering from a knee-shattering injury that led to the amputation of his leg, My Fox Philly reported.
Leshawn Williams, a senior at Northeast High School in St. Petersburg, Fla., had been blocking during the first half of a football game when the injury occurred.
"When you saw it, it wasn't something where you went, 'oh my,'" Kevin Hendrick, principal of Northeast High School, told My Fox Philly. "It was a football injury."
Williams reportedly tweeted that he "had never cried so much in his life" and that "he couldn't move his toes."
The injury caused a blood clot in Williams' leg. When doctors couldn't get the blood flowing again, they decided to amputate his right leg at the thigh.
"The family is stunned, like all of us," Hendrick said. "(They are) coping with it as best they can. It's still sinking in."
Williams' friends describe him as someone who has an infectious sense of humor— the kind of guy who can beat the odds.
"It was kind of heartbreaking," said his friend Tyler Lord. "He's a really good teammate, put a lot of effort in with the team, at practice, he never gave up."
Hendrick echoed Lord and said Williams is a "wonderful young man."
"He is somebody you know has a solid character and solid foundation, and that's going to carry him forth," Hendrick said.
Williams' friends signed a card for him, and Williams tweeted, "I gotta pull through this, this ain't me."
Hendrick said that although Williams' college football dreams are dashed, the team is working to find a role for him with their program.
"His support from us doesn't just end when he graduates from here," Hendrick said.
Visit Williams' fundraiser page to help Williams' family pay for his medical expenses.

The state Capitol Complex will reopen Tuesday after being shut down for a day because of a water line break.
"The water is back on," State Capitol Preservation Board spokeswoman Allyson Gamble said late Monday afternoon. "It still is not clear what happened. They think it was a surge" in a pipe dating back to 1959.
"These are literally the old bowels that have been there since the site was put together in 1916," she said. "There's been upgrades, of course."
Gamble said there was no water damage to any buildings, including the recently renovated Capitol, after the pipe burst sometime before 12:30 a.m. Monday underneath the west side of the State Office Building.
She said the entire complex was closed Monday because of health issues.
The problem was first noticed overnight by a Utah Highway Patrol trooper, said Utah Department of Public Safety spokesman Jesse Valenzuela. The UHP provides security for the complex.
Employees received e-mails telling them to work from home while crews repaired the water line. A Health and Human Services Appropriations Subcommittee scheduled Monday afternoon was cancelled.
No water meant there were no restrooms available for lawmakers or the public, said Sen. Pete Knudson, R-Brigham City, a committee member. "The public facilities would be kaput," he said.
The Legislature's monthly interim day is Wednesday. No changes are expected in the rest of the week's schedule, said Ric Cantrell, chief deputy of the Senate.

On Tuesday engineerd presented us with the incredible LCAC hovercraft. And while it is a mind-blowing piece of hardware, it's not the mind-blowingest hovercraft in the world. Yes, leave it to the Russians to always build something bigger.
In "Star Trek IV, The Voyage Home" Chief Engineer "Scotty" trades the formula for fictional "transparent aluminum" in exchange for materials in order to make holding tanks for the magic humpback whales which will save future earth from an evil alien probe, which threatens to evaporate earth's oceans. Or something like that.
This transparent aluminum material is supposedly used in various starship fittings, including exterior ship portals and windows. And Scotty giving the formula to the inventor creates one of them weird predestination paradoxes that make Trekkies all giddy and prone to using really big words.
This obscure reference came up earlier this week during behind-the-scenes banter here at Atomic Toasters, where we discuss ideas for articles, theme weeks and of course our awesome user submissions (keep them coming!).
The exchanges behind the curtains can be just as fascinating and humorous as it is in the comments section of this awesome website. The collaboration of many semi-great minds takes us in many exciting directions and there is always something new to learn. And at other times it is just plain funny.
This week has been no exception. In this case we've decided to share, and I'll let the following email thread do the explaining. Hit the space-jump to see it in its entirety.
A while back, User Input ran a week long series on old geeky movies and whether they were still watchable today.

We strive for excellence. We do our very best. And sometimes we lose because the other person is more important to us than winning. As I watched this boy striving and reaching it gave me a joy that I didn't know as a kid.
As a runner, I always wanted to win. I ran myself into the ground more than once striving to be the best. I ended my track career with a severely torn hamstring at the end of high school. As I dove off the track that day it was because I had pushed for the win beyond what I could do looking for an importance I was never going to find in a race.
Paul uses the image of a race in his second Letter to Timothy 4:7, "I have run the good race, I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." The faith here isn't just a set of things to believe. It is a way of life that flows from what we know and believe about God, Jesus, ourselves, and the world.
That faith puts others first, and eventually as we are faithful, we begin to experience joy at watching others succeed, even when we do not.
As we come to the end of this year, let us give thanks for other people's wins, gifts, and victories. As we become the kind of people who cheer others on, our joy is greater, our faith is deeper, and all our races are wins.

Dreams Can Come True by Sarah Offley
On Saturday 22nd July, I had the pleasure of going with a group called 'Access in Dudley' to Blackpool. You may wonder why I am sharing this on our blog? Here's why…we went to make a gentleman's life dream become a reality.
A little bit about this amazing gent! John is an extremely talented man that plays the organ and can pretty much replicate any piece of music he hears.
John volunteers for Access in Dudley as well as Dudley Voices for Choice and was introduced by his fellow housemate Del. John had mentioned on several occasions that his dream would be to play the Wurlitzer at Blackpool Tower.
The group decided to raise money to make John's dream come true.
John had no idea what we were up to as we told him we were going to meet another group in Preston! When we stopped at the services, John was told that the group had cancelled and booked us afternoon tea at Blackpool tower.
John was excited to hear the Wurlitzer and was overwhelmed when he got to meet his hero who has played the Wurlitzer for years! We spent the afternoon watching the dancing, eating cake, drinking tea and waiting in anticipation for John's turn.
At 5pm John was called to the front and told his dreams were coming true. John then spent the next hour playing every song he could recollect from memory (did I mention that John is blind and has no sight at all?) he even got the opportunity to have the stage lowered and rise from below the stage whilst playing 'I do like to be beside the seaside'.
It was an emotional time for us all and most of us shed a tear. The experience was something that John had always wanted to do and will never forget and I think everyone who was there will always remember.
Hi! A big welcome from all of us at Dudley Voices for Choice.
This is our very first ever blog!
We are a self-advocacy charity for adults who have a learning disability and / or autism.
We have 5 paid members of staff, trustees, volunteers and members.
All of us will be blogging from time to time to keep you up to date on what we have been up to, different topics and issues that affect us.
Some of the blogs may be serious but hopefully most of them fun!
We hope you will enjoy reading our blogs, and follow us on our journey.

I really warmed myself up today at lunch with a huge bowl of beef noodle soup at King of Thai noodle house on Clement/7th. Their beef broth is just mouthwateringly savory and warms me to the bone. I tend to find myself for lunch there on afternoons like this more often than not... savory, warm, plentiful, delicious food that may make my nose sniffle but it takes hours to get cold again.
What are other people's rainy day warm-me-up favorites?

Scavengers (2014)
|Directed By:
|Travis Zariwny
|Written By:
|Travis Zariwny
|Sean Patrick Flanery
|Louise Linton
|Kelley Whilden
|Roark Critchlow
Scavengers is a mess. A confusing, baffling, ridiculous space adventure with a wonky plot, terrible characters and undesirable CGI. As a debut feature it is a brave and bold experiment, but one that completely falls on its face and drowns in its own viscera.
The plot? The crew of space-scavenging ship The Revelator happen upon an extraordinary piece of salvage – a mysterious device called the Chaos Generator, which might hold the power to change literally everything, ever, for some reason.
Unfortunately evil nasty super-gravelly space-bastard Captain Jekel (Sean Patrick Flanery) wants this device and will stop at nothing – apart from buying a throat lozenge – to get hold of it, even if it means destroying everything and growling angrily on his spaceship.
The opening twenty minutes are epically confusing, chucking in countless characters with ridiculous names (Olos Nah, Wake, Overkill and Breathtaker), grey CGI spaceships that all look the same and tonnes of Sci-fi jargon like "hard lasers", "flex protocols", "ultra-unique energy anomalies" and "space scavenging", which are all just baffling and seemingly lobbed in to sound 'futuristic'.
Coupled with the shonky CGI, it might be a tough watch for even the most die-hard Sci-Fi fan to stomach. So, is it worth trudging through the first twenty minutes of brain-baffling confusion to get to the meat of the story?
No. No it's not.
Sometimes a writer-director can create an amazing, awe-inspiring vision that is unparalleled by any other, taking their script and making a truly superb piece of filmmaking history. Unfortunately Travis Zariwny is not one of those people.
Having worked as Production Designer on a number of low-rent horror films, such as Hatchet 3, Chillerama and Ice Spiders, Scavengers marks his first foray into feature making (after a few shorts) and it's a total mess.
Zariwny has chosen a complicated Sci-Fi movie as a debut, which is a brave and difficult task to undertake. Unfortunately his script is both hugely derivative and utterly impenetrable, chucking out lines like "Energy spike, Revelator's spiking!" and "I might be able to match the Revelator's flex protocols". Although a bold decision to try to immerse the viewers in another world, the confusing narrative and uncertain settings means it will leave most audiences baffled and frustrated.
At best, Scavengers plays out like a decent episode of Star Trek or Firefly, with random perils and a psychotic enemy to avoid or defeat, but at worst it feels like a parody of such programmes.
Perhaps the very-worst part of Scavengers is the character of Captain Jekel. Played by Sean Patrick Flanery of Young Indiana Jones / Boondock Saints fame, Flanery does an incredibly poor job of a terribly-written character. Sounding like Christian Bale's Batman after the national cigarette-smoking championships, his uber-gruff turn as pointlessly-evil Captain Jekel is distractingly bad and parody-esque hilarious. Honestly, it ruins any chance of the film being taken seriously.
Unfortunately Captain Jekel isn't the only mismanaged character, as all the 'good' character are – mostly – baffling idiotic, especially regarding the magical device called "The Chaos Generator", which – surprise surprise – seems to do utterly random and utterly chaotic things. One moment helpful, one moment violently insane, the Chaos Generator is a shameless McGuffin that makes almost absolutely no sense but drives the ENTIRE PLOT.
There are many (many) things wrong with Scavengers and these unfortunately outweigh the good things, which are a severe minority. There are buckets of blood and some decent gore effects, a couple of genuinely gobsmacking moments and some decent acting from a few minor characters, but this is all eclipsed by the terrible script, distracting CGI and a smoke-throated Flanery. Avoid unless you love confusing Sci-Fi cliché.

Buick has shared some of the techniques it uses to find the best protective coatings for its Buick interior materials at General Motors Materials Test and Engineering.
Just as human skin benefits from protection from sunscreen or bug spray, materials in Buick interiors benefit from protective coating to shield them from sun exposure and perspiration and to keep them looking new.
To test material durability in heat and ultraviolet light, Buick's lab engineers use artificial light—similar to that in tanning booths—for two to six weeks before analyzing results. It then exposes materials to natural sunlight in Arizona for as long as seven months in special glass boxes.
It also tests sweat resistance by applying perspiration solutions to material samples for several hours before letting them dry. Once dried, the engineers scrape the sample to determine if the material was softened or damaged, after which they expose it to artificial light to ensure it can withstand both sweat and sun.
"While it is easy to make leather resistant to chemicals or abrasion, it is very difficult to find the balance of durability while maintaining the desirable look and feel that a Buick customer expects," said Doug Pickett, engineering group manager, Materials Test and Engineering. "The texture is an important factor, so it can't be too hard, too slick or too sticky."

When some people think about hobbies, they think about the money involved and having to spend all day working on something. But, this is not always the case. There are many hobbies that you can enjoy without spending tons of time or money. You can learn more about hobbies by reading this article.
Reading is an interesting hobby that many enjoy. You are instantly transported to another world when you open a book. Reading can be done absolutely anywhere. With so many different areas to choose from, surely there is something for everyone.

Photography is a wonderful hobby that no longer requires you to make a large investment. If you already own a camera and a tripod, that can be turned into a great hobby. Remember that you don't have to be an artist to take a few photographs and that you can read a few books to get help figuring photography out.
Fishing is a great hobby to have. Fishing is the type of hobby that will always be there to enjoy. It is something that has been around forever. While it does require you to have endless patience, certain times are incredibly exciting, and make it all worthwhile! You could eat the fish you catch or place them back in the water.
If you want a new pasttime and want to lose weight, combine both goals! Running, swimming or biking could fit the bill. Either way, exercise can be good for your health in general.
You will find a lot of information on the Internet about your hobby. You could possibly even spread your own information onto the Internet if you find that your hobby choice is lacking in exposure. Making money on a website about your hobby is only going to expand your enjoyment of it.
If you enjoy water sports, then surfing may be the perfect hobby for you. You can buy a used board to start, and the lessons do not cost that much. You will also notice that your leg muscles will benefit from this wonderful exercise.
If you love the outdoors, consider horseback riding. With a horse you can travel to off road trails, which allows you to see areas that you wouldn't otherwise see. Also, a horse can become a friend, helping you connect more deeply with nature.
Going out caving could be a hobby for you if you live in a good area for it. Having said that, it is vital that you are properly prepared for this. Finding a guide to take you into the caves is the safe way to explore.
Have several hobbies. Diversity of hobbies keeps things interesting. Pick hobbies which you engage in at different times, such as gardening and skiing.
Garage sales and estate sales can be an addicting hobby. There are many interesting items at these types of sales. You might find kitchen appliances, art, and household items that are still worth something. You don't know what you might unearth, which adds some anticipation to the whole process.
Try doing calligraphy as a hobby. It is cheap to buy what you need, and it really helps you unwind. You can take a class on calligraphy, or you can figure it out on your own. You'll soon begin to appreciate your new ability.

Engage in the hobby of calligraphy to improve your handwriting. It is a low cost hobby, and there is nothing like pen and paper to relax the soul. Take a class, or work on learning it on your own. Either way, you will learn to appreciate being able to change your handwriting.
Star gazing can be a really fun hobby. Stargazing can be fun since you get a whole new view of outer space. It helps you better appreciate existence. You simply need dark and a telescope.
Try to collect something if you want an interesting new hobby. Today, the Internet can help you determine value, so you can find out what you need to get the most return on any investments. Look into eBay and other such sites, and sell your items to the highest bidder!
The rule of safety first is applicable even to the world of hobby fun. It is easy to forget safety when we are out there having fun. Whatever hobby you choose, know the safety precautions before getting started.
Cooking Classes
Find co-workers or friends that share your hobbies and have them participate with you regularly. Whether it's just once a week or even just once a month, at least you are taking time to enjoy your hobby. It also helps you build a friendship with someone who shares your interest.
Start a new activity with your mom. Think about trying cooking classes. Neither of you need to be great at cooking to learn a lot from a cooking course. You can help your relationship with a bit of competition, and use what you learn to make you a better cook. Look for local cooking classes online.
Always think about safety when you are trying out a new hobby. Read over the directions for the equipment that you're using. Make sure the area where you do your hobby is all organized and clean. You may benefit from taking lessons from someone who has more experience than you. If you're careful all around, a hobby can really be something that you love for a lifetime.
Don't forget to be safe when you are having fun with your hobby. It is easy to forget this when having a good time. Be sure that the safety rules are followed that have to do with your hobby.
Fitness can be turned into a hobby. This actually can combine many hobbies into one. You can do different sports, and you can go to a gym. You might find yourself dipping in the pool a lot more. Fitness is something we all need for healthier lives.
A great hobby to take up is jigsaw puzzles, and to create space and not clutter your tables, you should get a jigsaw puzzle board that is foldable. You can keep your puzzle intact and just fold up the sides and store it flat until the next time you are ready to work on it. The board is going to hold the various pieces in place.
Becoming a sports fan, whether it be basketball, football, baseball or even tennis, can become a fun hobby. First, you need to understand the basics of your sport choice and the team that you like. You will also need to enjoy watching the sport. That can be a good way to pass the time, and you can build friendships with other fans.
Fitting Clothes
Keep your hobby area well supplied. If you don't, it might be hard to complete things or work safely on your hobby. Research your specific needs and make an investment for your new hobby.
Be careful if you decide to cook as a hobby. Avoid loose fitting clothes if you want to avoid fire problems. Keep it safe by tying back your hair, wearing form fitting clothes, and donning an apron. Remember that safety and cooking go hand in hand.
Start blogging. Today, we see many people create a blog to show off the many sides of their personality. Some use a blog to get their business promoted while others use their blog to write their journals. this tool can help you unwind and may even attract some followers. This can bring in more friends or even some income if you put SEO tools to work for you.
Many hobbies begin with a natural talent that is developed over time. If you're artistic, there are many ways items to paint around the house such as birdhouses, wooden crates, or anything that can be considered good to decorate. You could gift the end results, or even sell them for money.
Design quilts as a hobby. You can even get your family involved. Let your kids choose fabrics that they like. Scraps can be of old clothes, linens, or swatches obtained at a fabric store. When it comes time to put it together, let everyone sew their fabric choice onto the new blanket.
Learn the art of cake decorating! You can create exquisite cakes for family gatherings, parties and weddings. You can find decorating classes for cakes locally, or a trip to the local hobby store can yield a good book and instructional video that will teach you the art of cake decoration.
Playing solo is fine when your hobby involves a musical instrument. Just make sure you enjoy being alone. Show off your musical skills on a horn or guitar.
If music is your hobby, playing your instrument alone shouldn't be an issue. Practicing alone for the most part, but in the end you get to share your musical talents with everyone. Play by yourself and show others your skills in the piano, horn, bass, flute, etc.
Visit your library when you want to find a hobby. There,you will find books on many different hobbies, as well as classes to teach you new things that you can turn into a hobby too. All of these are usually provided free of charge, which can significantly help you on your hobby hunt.
Watch your money when you are getting into a hobby. If you love a hobby, it's very enticing to spend way too much on it. Make a hobby budget and stick to it. You can enjoy yourself without spending too much.
Photography can be a benefit to yourself and your loved ones. With a proper eye, equipment, and know-how, you can take photos of loved ones and other things to impress everybody. You can even make some extra money.
Get your charcoal pencils and artist sketchpads, and start drawing! You can learn how to draw or just feel it out. Drawing can help you relieve tension and express yourself artistically. It's also a hobby that can be done just about anywhere.
Growing flowers is fun and makes your home more interesting to look at. There is a lot of information out there on growing flowers, and quite a few plants can be brought in during the colder months to be grown indoors. Indoor florals are terrific for home decor, and also provide ambient oxygen.
Treat your family and friends by turning photography into a hobby. With the right eye, equipment and knowledge you can take pictures of your loved ones, landscapes and other things that are sure to impress. You can also turn a photography hobby into a money-making enterprise.
Some hobbies can help improve your neighborhood or even the world. If you are a giving person, use your time to do hobbies that help people. For example, you can take up tutoring, create a neighborhood garden, or maybe you can knit and sew clothes for people that don't have a lot of money.
You ought to now have a bit better of an understanding about the hobbies that are right for you. Hopefully the information you just read will inspire you to take up a new hobby. You really can participate in hobbies without lots of money or time.
Use the many online resources when taking up a new hobby. The are many great websites that give information on hobbies. You will also find forums to talk with others who have the same hobby you choose. The resources are typically free, allowing you to look at lots of information before making a final choice.

Posted May 21, 2008 by publisher in Business In Cuba
Email this article | Print this article | Search Havana Journal Tweet
Cuba plans to build 14,000 plastic homes a year to help ease a national housing shortage, a government news agency reported on Tuesday.
Set to begin in September, the program will use polyvinyl chloride from a petrochemical facility to be built with Venezuelan aid at a refinery in Cienfuegos, Prensa Latina said.
"Cuba will produce more than 14,000 houses annually with polyvinyl chloride, thanks to a bi-national project with Venezuela," project director Julian Alonso told the news agency.
Cuba is said to need about half a million homes to provide sufficient housing for its people.
Alonso said the machinery to produce the so-called "petrohouses" will arrive in Cuba next month and should be operating by September, with a daily production of 40 homes measuring 753 square feet each.
Venezuela, led by Cuban ally President Hugo Chavez, provides about 92,000 barrels of oil per day to Cuba on favorable terms and has financed the modernization of the Soviet-era Cienfuegos refinery. Cienfuegos is 150 miles (240 km) southeast of Havana.
In December Chavez donated 100 of the plastic houses to Cuba and has promised to invest $1.3 billion for a petrochemical complex.
(Reported by Rosa Tania Valdes; Editing by Jeff Franks and Xavier Briand)
Here's more information from the Venezuelan government about PetroCasa and an article from JuventudRebelde.cu about petrohouses in Cuba
Is it possible to see the floor plans of this new house?
I have been thinking of this idea for Mexico for years.
Sounds interesting…..BUT…..what kind of winds can this structure endure? Cuba has a problem with tropical systems visiting on a regular basis…......
This compnay, Pequiven owned by the Venezuelan government is the manufacturer of these petrocasas, petrohouse and/or plastic houses.
The house walls are filled with concrete.
I guess aesthetics are not important anymore. Secondly the Castro government over the years immerse on its impossibility to provide housing for the people, have tried hundreds of different propaganda plans, all of which failed miserably: remember the "micros" and the "contingents". This would end like more of the same, few hundred horrible houses build and two years down the road nobody remember anything about them.
I am amased that you produce "low cost homes" by using the formwork produced in Venezuela only ONCE!
moladi produces formwork that can be used 50 times! Therefore the cost of construction is far less than Petrocasa. Have a look at how it should be done at http://www.moladi.net
The "formwork" as you call it are produced in Cienfuegos Cuba in a factory using the plastic by products from their oil refinery. The pvc modules are interlocking and also form the inside and outside finish of the structure. they are then filled with concrete. The modules can be put up in many different configerations to produce many different buildings from houses to stores and medical clinics. They can be put up by unskilled labour. Your product would cost them euros or dollars, their product is produced in Cuba by Cubans.
I do not want to be negative, but this houses are not only ugly but also very soon will be forgotten like many other constructions programs created by Castro. Remember the micro-brigades, the contingents with their people working "voluntarily" for over 16 hours, the low cost houses made of mud and a bunch of other stuff, every single worker including those not in the construction field that has to work "voluntarily" 120 hours a year, etc, etc, etc.
The fact and the matter is that every single construction made after the "rovolution" is uglier and have less quality than the constructions made before 1959, amazing uh?

IT IS A pity that death does not adhere to the prissy policies of ''propriety'' promulgated by our dictators of what is proper in school - state Education Sectretary Betty Castor and Wayne Blanton, executive director of the Florida School Boards Association. (Castor told 32 school districts not to participate in a survey on health issues that is part of a state AIDS education program.)
Apparently, Castor and Blanton don't read about Florida being one of the highest ranked states for teenage pregnancy, and aren't members of a minority group plagued by high rates of AIDS or drug abuse.

With attention focused on the outcome of the UK's election, it is easy to forget that the European Union is also instrumental in the development of our employment law. Of particular interest this month is the EU Commission consultation (closing 30 June) on strengthening existing EU legislation on worker information and consultation, including a possible consolidation of three Directives (the TUPE, collective redundancies and information and consultation of workers Directives).
The employers' body, Business Europe, is against such change, seeing it as unnecessary, while European trade unions have concerns that any consolidation might erode existing worker protections. At the same time, the trade unions have already used this initiative by the Commission to lobby for stricter employer duties: such as a requirement for employers to share more detailed information with workers representatives at the earliest opportunity and to receive their opinion in response, before any decision is finalised.
In order to ensure that EU legislation remains 'fit for purpose', the EU Commission undertook a review of the information and consultation provisions in the above Directives during 2012/13. The review was broadly positive in its conclusions. However, it highlighted some shortcomings and gaps in the definitions of 'information' and 'consultation' across the Directives. As a result, the Commission decided to consult with the EU social partners (representatives of employers and trade unions) on whether to revise the Directives and, if so, how.
Does this matter to employers?
The outcome of the consultation does matter because stricter obligations to inform and consult could result in delays to business restructuring, mergers, sales and other business change, as well as the potential for more litigation alleging breaches of the new and more extensive consultation rights and an increased risk of leaks of market sensitive confidential information.
In particular, the Commission's consultation raises the prospect of adopting the definitions of information and consultation from the 2009 European Works Council (EWC) Directive. According to the Commission, harmonising standards 'upwards' in this way would contribute to "a more effective exercise of the rights and obligations of all" concerned.
However, adopting EWC definitions would, for example, result in trade union or employee representatives in a TUPE or collective redundancy situation having a new legal right to produce a formal 'opinion' about managements' proposals; the idea being that management provide a reasoned response to the opinion before moving ahead with any change.
Depending on the nature and complexity of the proposed change, an opinion may take time to produce and the representatives may need assistance. For example, in France external accountants are sometimes hired to help representatives produce an opinion.
There is also a risk that the Directives would be 'recast', meaning that they would be swept into one new Directive, providing the opportunity for further change in other areas, besides information and consultation.
While the consultation does raise the spectre of some major changes to information and consultation, it must be borne in mind that the social partners frequently fail to reach agreement on the way forward.
If that is the case, the Commission must then decide how to act. It is anticipated that it would propose changes to the Directives but whether they would finally be adopted depends on support from national governments, in the form of the Council, as well as the EU Parliament - neither of which is certain and may result in a stalemate.

Imphal, June 21, 2010:
Three passenger buses and one mini bus, which were plying along the National Highway 39 (Imphal-Dimapur Road) in defiance of the decision of the Transporters and Drivers' Council, Manipur reportedly suffered damage when unidentified persons rained stones on them near Sangakpham bazar in Chingmeirong today.
One woman trader travelling in one of the buses was hurt in the attack.
Meanwhile, Transporters and Drivers' Council, Manipur has threatened to suspend all the passenger services including auto-rickshaws if the Govt does not come up with some concrete arrangements to ensure adequate supply of fuel.
According to information received by the press, the three passenger buses and the mini bus left for Mao from Imphal in the morning today when some persons on motor cycles, with their faces covered with handkerchiefs pelted stones at the buses near Sangakpham Bazar, Chingmeirong and 2nd MR Gate.
Police report, however, said that only two buses have suffered damage.
The registration number of the two damaged buses are MN01/1167 and MN01/0341 and the owners have been identified as SK Chao Paomei of Thingba Khullen and Sekhop Paomei of Tungjoy.
Both the buses are plying between Mao and Imphal.
In the stone attack, one Ningthoukhongjam Jamini Devi of Malom, who was travelling inside one of the buses was hit and sustained injuries.
She was given first aid at the hospital.
She is trader and was going to Mao along with her wares when the incident took place, according to police report.
Meanwhile, a joint meeting of the primary societies/associations of the transporters was convened at the MG Avenue office of the Transporters and Drivers' Council here this afternoon to discuss the difficulties being faced by inter-district passenger services due to shortage of fuel supply.
Presided over by vice president of the Council Th Ibohal, the meeting took serious note over the inability of the transporters to do their normal duty while waiting in queue for fuel supply at the oil pumps, even spending the night there and demanded that instead of the queue system Government should make some definite arrangements for providing fuel at some selected oil pumps every day.
Accordingly, it was resolved that the Council would approach the Government for identifying some designated oil pumps where fuel can be supplied on token system under the control of the Council.
Furthermore, it was resolved that if the Government fails to implement these demands at the earliest possible, then all the passenger services would cease work.
All those who were present during the meeting today reportedly endorsed the decision of the Council not to ply along the National Highway 39 until the Government of India and Government of Manipur ensure protection of the vehicles along the said National Highway and pay compensation for the damages caused during the recently lifted economic blockade.
When contacted in this regard, general secretary of the Council Ng Haridas informed that there has been no change in the stand of the Council.

Infinity from Three: The Stitches That Make All Knitting Stitch Patterns
I'm going to make a provocative statement in hopes of unleashing a storm of controversy. Here goes.
Knitting only uses three stitches: knit, purl, yarn over. Everything—EVERYTHING—else is some variation on the Big Three.
Once you know these stitches and their variations, you can enter a whole new world of knitting stitch patterns. Cables, bobbles, nupps, entrelac, and especially lace patterns can all be formed from them.
Colorplay Crescent Lace Shawl
Take, for example, the lovely Colorplay Crescent Lace Shawl from Love of Knitting, Spring 2016. It dazzles the eye with beautiful colors and two contrasting lace patterns. The colors require no work on the knitter's part: a delicious gradient yarn shifts slowly from one bright color to the next.
The lace patterns are actually not much more complicated, though they look so different. A leaf-like pattern covers most of the shawl, then a chevronish pattern runs along the edge.
But both knitting stitch patterns involve the same stitches. There are only five stitches on the key:
K2tog and ssk are simply variations of the knit stitch. With k2tog, you're working two stitches at the same time, creating a slant to the right. With ssk, you turn two stitches on the needle and knit them together, making the new stitch slant left. The yarn over (yo) forms an open space. (See the master glossary on KnittingDaily for complete instructions.)
Infinite knitting stitch patterns can be formed simply by arranging the decreases and yarn overs in different configurations. Compare the two charts below.
The left chart forms the leaf-like pattern. Yarn overs appear first in vertical lines, with plain rows between them to space them out. Then decreases and yarn overs get closer together, forming diagonal lines that meet in the center.
The chart at right vertically stacks ssk and k2tog—they make a sort of sawtooth effect. Numerous yarn overs create lots of holes. The wrong-side rows form purl ridges when viewed from the right side. There's much more texture, and it's delivered a lot faster, in this chart. While the pattern repeats are only 12 stitches wide for both charts, the left one involves 18 rows to the right one's 12 rows.
These two patterns could easily inspire even more knitting stitch patterns. Imagine adding another row of purl stitches to the chevron chart, or more vertical yarn over rows to the leaf chart. Now you can see why lace designers never get bored.
I'll close with a challenge to all KnittingDaily readers—can you think of any stitch that isn't just a variation of knit, purl, or yarn over? Leave answers in comments. You can also get your own kit for this lovely shawl in the Interweave store, with hard-to-find Frolicking Feet DK Gradients Yarn and a digital version of Love of Knitting.

Court Nixes Claims Over|Autopsy Organ Removal
(CN) – Coroners can remove organs during an autopsy without notifying the deceased person's loved ones, the 6th Circuit ruled, rejecting a class action filed by an Ohio couple who claimed they had a property interest in their son's brain.
Mark and Diane Albrecht sued on behalf of families whose deceased relatives "were returned to them missing tissues or organs," according to the ruling.
The Cincinnati-based appeals court ruled that the families have no protected property interest in the dead bodies.
"Here, the Albrechts had no property rights on which the state could infringe," Senior U.S. District Judge Joseph Hood wrote for the appellate panel, because there was a legitimate investigative purpose for the brain removal.
A coroner examined the brain as part of an investigation into 30-year-old Christopher Albrecht's death from drowning after an epileptic seizure.
"When the body was returned to the Albrechts, they were not informed that the coroner had retained the brain for further study and that it would be destroyed once the investigation was complete," according to the ruling.
The parents argued that the removal and destruction of their son's brain, without their knowledge, deprived them of their right to dispose of the brain how they saw fit.
But the federal appeals court disagreed.
"Removal and retention of tissues or organs for forensic analysis in furtherance of a criminal investigation serves an important state function, which is paramount to the Albrechts' right to possess their son's body in its entirety," Hood wrote, upholding a federal judge's ruling for the Clermont County coroner and various county officials.
The Albrechts' attorney, John Metz, told the Cincinnati Enquirer that he would appeal the decision to the U.S. Supreme Court.
"Once the cause of death is determined," he said, coroners "no longer have any right to keep that body or any part of it."

Silpada Maternity Leave Comments
- "I've worked here for a year an a half and have loved it! Unsurprisingly, a majority of the employees here are women (IT is still heavily men, though.) Though I don't have children myself, I know Silpada is very flexible with kids (letting you work from home if a kid is sick, etc.). The one con is maternity leave. While I haven't had children, I've been told that in order to receive any pay you have to take short-term disability. I will say that there is no judgement on the part of maternity leave. It's very acceptable to take as much as you can/want to, though with the poor paid leave setup, it's not always an option to take more than eight to twelve weeks." - Anonymous

From being England's future to Everton outcast — Ross Barkley has fallen a long way in a short time.
If midfield playmaker Barkley's career had continued on its upwards trajectory, Gareth Southgate would be building his Three Lions team around him in preparation for the World Cup in Russia next summer.
Instead, his latest wrong turn will leave the 23-year-old in the wilderness at the Toffees — when he eventually returns from a hamstring injury that's estimated to keep him out for the next two months.
Boss Ronald Koeman will carry out his threat to shun Barkley because of his refusal to sign a new contract before the end of last season.
Chelsea offered him an escape route from his Goodison misery, but he incredibly snubbed a £35million move to Stamford Bridge at the eleventh hour, just before the transfer window closed on Thursday night.
Barkley apparently now wants to reconsider his options in January, when he will have just six months left on his contract.
Until then, a player once feted by Everton fans as a home-grown hero faces having to twiddle his thumbs on the sidelines.
Majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri summed up Barkley's bleak Everton future when he claimed he would struggle to get a look-in following the club's record summer spend.
Summer signings Wayne Rooney, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Davy Klaassen are all ahead of him in the fight to be Koeman's playmaker.
"That's the difficulty," said Moshiri. "The No 10 position is very congested as we have Sigurdsson, Klaasen and Rooney. It's not easy to break into that now, but he is a good player, he is a world class player. But he needs to play."
Moshiri also challenged Koeman to lead Everton to a top-six finish, despite failing to land the striker and left-sided defender the Dutchman desperately wanted before the transfer window closed.
He feels Everton have backed Koeman by splashing out £145million on the players he wanted and now want him to deliver.
"We are quite happy with the business we've done," said Moshiri. "I think it's been a very busy transfer window.
"We've brought in a lot of new players, especially in the attacking areas. In the No 10 position we have brought in Klaassen, Sigurdsson, Rooney. We brought in Sandro Ramirez and we want to give the team a chance to gel.
"These are all Koeman's signings so his mark is firmly on the squad now. Eighty per cent of the squad are his now.
"We would like to finish as high up the table as possible. It's very competitive — the amount of money the top four have spent is quite staggering.
"At the end of the day, it's about how the squad performs. We are very happy with our squad, we have a good manager so we hope to finish at least in the top six."

Its just gonna be one of those days
Well woke up kinda down.The adoption process does that to you.One day you feel great the next you feel down. We rushed so much redoing our dossier for the new agency that we hit snags. Due to our medicals not being correct our full dossier wasn't looked at til this past week. I was hoping yesterday we would hear we were officially waiting but we didn't. 6 families were told Tuesday they were official-yep that's 6 more ahead of us .I cant help but think if we weren't careless we would have been waiting a week ago.Then I start to think the 3 months we waited with CHFS if we were with BFAS we would probably be home with baby already. Then I try and remind myself that its in gods time(not so comforting sometimes) and only he knows who our child is and when the time is right so will we(but its really hard). So today is a hard day. On the flip side I am so happy for for Theresa and Jim who received their referral this week and became parents!!

Dawn! I know you are feeling down, but 6 people in front of you (now 4 that 2 of the oct group have referrals).. 4 people in front of you is nothing compared to having 320+ in front of you with CHSFS. Time will fly by fast! You'll have your babies in your arms in no time!!

Hi Dawn!! Thanks for the shout out :) I know how your feeling. It's sad having days like that. It doesn't help when it's rainy either.(It's rainy here anyway) But I just know in my heart your referral is coming very, very soon!!! Your baby is out there and God is going to bring you the path to her. I'm praying it happens soon for you!
