Botanical Names: Dieteria bigelovii (formerly Aster bigelovii), but also Aster tataricus, Symphyotrichum (formerly Aster) novae-angliae, Aster subspicatus, and probably many others.
Common Names: Purple Sticky Aster, Bigelow's Spine Aster, also Douglas Aster, New England Aster, etc.,
Taste: Bitter, sweet, aromatic
Impression: Oily, aromatic
Energetics: Slightly warm, Moistening in the oily sense
Actions: Aromatic (and thus, Carminative), Relaxant Diaphoretic, Expectorant
Specific Indications: Lung deficiency, Cough with cold signs, Asthma with tension and spasmodic coughing/wheezing, Cough initiated by cold/flu onset with tension
I first learned of this beautiful medicine from Jim McDonald through his work with the very similar New England Aster, which in turn led me to look for a local plant with similar qualities. Many SW herbalists just shrugged their shoulders at me and pointed to the nearest Grindelia patch, but as much as I love Gumweed, these fragrant purple asters are their own special bit of magic.
Here in the mountains of New Mexico, the Purple Sticky Aster creates a sweet smelling lavender flower mist across the mesas, especially beneath the blue-green boughs of the Juniper trees. It's well named and sticky enough that the flowers or flower buds can stick firmly to one's clothing or leave an oily yet glue-like coating on the fingers after petting a flower or leaf.
In the Gila bioregion of southwest New Mexico, this is a plant of middle to upper elevations, and I have not seen it outside of the mountains. It tends to flower primarily from mid-September to the first frost in my area, and sometimes even persisting through light frosts for some weeks. A working knowledge of field botany is very helpful here, as the Asteraceae are abundant as well as abundantly confusing, especially given the taxonomy changes made within the last decade. I've watched many people repeatedly confuse the different species, and sometimes even begin to harvest the wrong plant because they weren't being sensorily aware, and didn't notice they were picking a similar looking but much less resinous Machaeranthera species. A visual characteristic that makes this plant somewhat easier to identify are its distrinctive glandular phyllaries, seen on the underside of the flower. In general though, the stick resin the plant exudates through its glands are the easiest way to distinguish it from other purple rayed, aster-like flowers in this region.
While the most commonly used, and well notated, species used medicinally among Western herbalists in North America is the New England Aster, our local Dieteria bigelovii is resinous, aromatic, and also well suited to the job. I haven't experimented much outside these two species, especially since I haven't found any other local species that exhibit anywhere near the same amount of sticky resin as the Dieteria.
Finding the Breath: Aster as Respiratory Remedy
Clinically, I have observed a simple of Aster flower tincture both reduce and eliminate the need for inhalers during allergy and fire season. I've also seen it dramatically reduce chest tension, wheezing and shortness of breath in those with mild to moderate asthma during exposure to wildfire smoke. This often works well both symptomatically and long term.
Thus far, I have seen this remedy be most specific to respiratory tension with a feeling of pressure and constriction, sometimes accompanied by spasmodic coughing and a tickly throat. It can dramatically relax that claustrophobic tightening sensation in the chest that's about to turn into an asthma attack or full on coughing/wheezing fit. I find it an exceptionally important medicine in the treatment of mild to moderate asthma, especially childhood onset asthma where there is a tendency to tension and attacks triggered by emotional stress.
As Jim McDonald says of New England Aster:
"A tincture of the fresh flowering tops of new england aster seemed clearly indicated as a respiratory remedy, being uniquely clearing, relaxing & decongesting to the head & lungs. This effect is readily apparent when taking a bit of the tincture; the effects aren't subtle and can be easily perceived. It seems to act very effectively to break up stuffy lung and (to as lesser extent)sinus congestion, though as it's not especially astringent, it doesn't stop a drippy nose as well as, say, goldenrod. It is, however, uniquely antispasmodic for the lung tissue; it relaxes and dilates the respiratory passages."
This seems equally true of our local Purple Sticky Aster, which smells like a cross between Lavender and some sort of sticky baby shampoo. This has been a primary remedy of mine in many respiratory cases with symptoms of tension and congestion both in the cold season's bronchitis and related respiratory distress as well as the annual fire season.
I have used it in combination with Elecampane and Grindelia in strep throat, and while the other two herbs are probably more active in reducing microbial overproliferation, the Aster is definitely soothing and relaxing, especially if there is a concurrent cough, fever, or respiratory tension. It is most useful if used in the early stages of the infection, rather than waiting until the affliction is at its worst.
Aster is also considered a fundamental respiratory medicine that has been used for over two millennia in China. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the roots/rhizomes of Aster tataricus (Purple Aster/Zi Wan) are specifically used to resolve excess phlegm and stop coughs,. This is more specifically true where there is a cough related to viral onset (usually cold/flu) associated with lung deficiency. In such cases, I find the herb to be especially helpful when formulated with Western Spikenard (Aralia racemosa, although it's likely other species in the same genus would work as well) berries and rhizomes. I consider the combination of Aralia and Aster to be one of our most important native herb combinations for treating almost almost any case of lung deficiency, particularly in preparations that include honey, such as in elixirs or honey frying.
Fever Tea: Aster as Relaxant Diaphoretic
Sticky Aster and New England Aster are gentle relaxant diaphoretics, particularly indicated where there's irritability, tension, and the inability to relax. This means that a hot tea/infusion of Aster will relax the circulatory system in such a way that it allows for enhanced peripheral circulation. In turn, this will increase the ability of the immune system to prevent or deal with microbial overproliferation in cold/flu (or other viral crud).
The Alutiiq people of Alaska have worked with a similar species, Aster subspicatus (Purple Daisy/Douglas Aster), for all manner of fevers, especially when occurring alongside cold, flu, or childhood eruptive diseases such as measles, as well as in the treatment of coughs and sinus congestion. In this case the root is generally decocted or chewed directly.
I like a strong infusion of Yarrow, Sticky Aster, Elderflower, and just a pinch of Beebalm (Monarda fistulosa var. menthifolia in this case) as a general diaphoretic formula. These plants are all local to me and easily gathered and kept on hand for Winter viral episodes. If the individual has a tendency toward to bronchitis, or has ongoing asthmatic issues, then I find the Aster to be an especially important addition, as it is especially good at helping to prevent lung crud from settling in before the fact.
The Purple Haze: Aster as Relaxant Nervine
In addition to Aster's phenomenal action on the respiratory and circulatory systems, it also earns this blog post's title with its ability as a relaxant nervine. While its primary affinity does seem to be on respiratory tension, Aster does have the ability to relax tension in the nervous system as well. I rarely use this plant as just a general nervine, but do frequently utilize it where folks have anxiety associated with chest/lung tension. So, if you're someone who manifests nervousness as an inability to get a deep breath or a feeling of tightness in the chest, this plant could be very helpful as a nervine on its own or in an appropriate formula.
Parts Used & Preparations:
Parts: Traditionally, the root has been the part used in both European and Chinese medicine. However, I (and Jim) find the flowers just as useful, if not more so. However, when treating chronic coughs with distinct immune and lung weakness/deficiency, I especially like the rhizomes fried in honey to help create a more moistening and strengthening preparation.
Fresh Plant Tincture: I primarily use tincture in order to most efficiently extract the resin and aromatics.
Infused Oil: My attempts at infused oil have been useful in healing mild wounds or as a chest rub but not super strong. I tend to use it more in formulae than on its own.
Water-Based Preps: Tea and infusion are usable, but again, much more mild, and the flowers tend to turn fluff immediately upon drying. The fluff and leaves (and roots) do work medicinally though, and in years where the plant is especially abundant, I do gather enough for infusions as well. A great preparation I picked up from Jim McDonald:
"I generally add a bit of fresh flower tincture to a hot infusion of the dried flowering tops, and use this for fevers with respiratory tension combined with an agitated disposition… it's a relaxing diaphoretic.."
Also, fresh plant works well in infusions, and I prefer it to the dried when its practical and possible.
Infused honey and elixir: I find that Aster lends its medicinal properties very well to honey, whether the fresh flowers or the dried rhizomes. As previously mentioned, I tend to stick to the flower overall, and find that the flowering tops make a lovely elixir with alcohol (I like whiskey with Aster, but whatever you prefer) and a good honey. Infused honey is also lovely, but I've only ever used the fresh flowers for that so far.
Aster formulates exceptionally well with Grindelia and Elecampane for respiratory infections of many sorts, especially where there's tension and a dryness associated with lack of oils. This is also a great combo for strep, if used at the very first sign of onset or relapse.
Aster and Lobelia are a fantastic team for addressing the early stages of many asthma attacks, most specifically if emotional upset is triggering the attack.
As I mentioned above, I love Aralia spp. and Aster together for chronic lung deficiency where the person tends to get a respiratory infection from every bug that comes around. Another lovely addition here is Fir (Abies spp.) if there's a chronic low-grade cough associated with cold signs.
Hawthorn, Rose, and Cherry all have some amount of lung/nerve affinity and work well with Aster, especially where distinct tissue inflammation is a factor. Cherry being most specific to acute spasmodic issues, but all three helpful for longer term issues.
Considerations: I tend to agree with Chinese medicine that Aster is less suited as a single herb remedy for treating excess heat associated with a cough or fever. However, it can still be useful in this circumstance in the right formula. In general, a mild and gentle medicine appropriate even for small children. No overt contradictions that I know of.

Once again, a well-written informative article Kiva. Thank you. As a botany guy, I especially liked this line "A working knowledge of field botany is very helpful here, as the Asteraceae are abundant as well as abundantly confusing" as it is true.
Perhaps I shall give this locally common herb a try. I have enjoyed smelling the crushed flower heads for years now.
Again, thank you Kiva for bringing this local plant to the forefront.
I have Aster ledophyllus in my area, it looks very similar to this. Do you think I could try this ssp. in replace of yours to work with? As you state there many and I love to use my local herbs as much as possible. Thanks I love the article, as always your work is much appreciated. 🙂
We have white asters in the summer and purple in the fall. Are there medicinal differences between the two? I would love to use them in teas, but tinctures seem to be the preferred method.

Netanyahu slams UNESCO delay of Jewish exhibit
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday criticized the U.N.'s cultural agency for postponing an exhibit on Jewish connections to the Holy Land following objections from Arab countries.
The spat centers around one of the thorniest issues at the heart of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks: Israel's demand for recognition as a Jewish state. Israel says there cannot be Mideast peace without Palestinian acceptance of Israel as the Jewish homeland. The Palestinians say such recognition would undercut the rights of Palestinian refugees and Israel's own Arab minority.
The exhibition, which is called "People, Book, Land — The 3,500 Year Relationship of the Jewish People to the Holy Land," had been scheduled to open on Jan. 20 at UNESCO's headquarters in Paris.
But late last week, UNESCO abruptly announced it was delaying the exhibit after 22 Arab member states said in a letter that it could disrupt Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations. The U.N. agency also said it also needed extra time to revise "unresolved issues relating to potentially contestable textual and visual historical points" that member states could perceive as "endangering the peace process."
Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, a U.S. Jewish group that co-organized the exhibit, said UNESCO had already approved the exhibit and even begun setting it up at UNESCO's Paris headquarters.
"This is absolutely preposterous," said Heir. "The educational and cultural headquarters of the United Nations (is saying) to the world, 'Every people's history is welcome to be told in these corridors, except for one people, the Jewish people.'"
The exhibit was to show roughly 30 illustrated panels showing the long history of the Jewish people in the Holy Land, from the days of the biblical patriarch Abraham to modern day Israel as a high-tech powerhouse.
"One of the things that this exhibition very clearly shows is that the Jewish presence in the holy land has been continuous," said the creator of the exhibit, Hebrew University professor Robert Wistrich. "This is the accurate true story and it goes against the fashionable but highly misleading perception that the Jewish presence is the result of some kind of late 19th century colonial project or is the consequence of the Holocaust."
Wistrich said every line of the text had been "scrutinized and vetted and examined and re-examined" by UNESCO experts. He called it "absolutely mindboggling" that the entire exhibit had been called off by what he said was "an entirely predictable" objection by Arab countries.
Speaking to his Cabinet, Netanyahu rejected the claim that the exhibit would harm peace negotiations. "It would not harm the negotiations. Negotiations are based on facts, on the truth, which is never harmful," he said.
Netanyahu has argued that the Palestinians' refusal to recognize Israel as Jewish state is the main stumbling block to peace.
Many Palestinian officials deny or dispute Jewish historical ties to Israel.
The Palestinians say that such recognition would harm claims by hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees and their descendants who wish to return to lost properties in what is now Israel. They also say it would harm the rights of Israeli Arabs, who make up about one-fifth of the population.
Israel has a long history of contentious relations with UNESCO, going back its endorsement of a resolution in 1975 equating Zionism with racism. While the agency has worked to change its image of being anti-Israel, UNESCO granted Palestine full membership in 2011. The decision enraged Israel and prompted the U.S. to suspend its funding of the agency. Washington had provided roughly one-fifth of UNESCO's budget.
The American ambassador to the U.N., Samantha Power, has called on UNESCO to open the exhibit.
"UNESCO's decision is wrong and should be reversed," said Power. "UNESCO is supposed to be fostering discussion and interaction between civil society and member states, and organizations such as the Wiesenthal Center have a right to be heard and to contribute to UNESCO's mission."

color flame number candle
Our color flame candles are a type of candle that generate colored flame when burning. They are made from special salt crystals that contain metallic ions. This works on the scientific principle that, when heated, the electrons of metallic ions and other compound molecules transmit from a high energy level orbit to a lower on. This energy is released in the form of color. For example- if you throw common table salt (sodium chloride) into a fire, the heat of the fire will generate orange sparks.

There's tailgating. And then there's tailgating.
"When I was at University of Florida, there were people who got there at 2:30 in the morning cooking a whole pig on a spit," says Taylor Mathis, author of "The Southern Tailgating Cookbook: A Game-Day Guide for Lovers of Food, Football and the South" (University of North Carolina Press). "It's great to see that kind of dedication, to get there 17 hours before kickoff."
Mathis saw dedication writ large during his gridiron-infused culinary tour of 35 college stadiums — from a Halloween game at the University of Kentucky with mummy-shaped apple slices floating in cider, to a University of Washington crowd hosting a Midwestern fish fry with Great Lakes fish sent by their University of Michigan pals.
"One of my favorite things was seeing how creative people could get with themes," says the 28-year-old University of Wisconsin at Madison graduate.
Mathis devoted a chapter of his book to an "eat your competition" theme. (Beer can chicken when your rivals are birds; a mutton dish when Rams are the opposition; souped up hot dogs when you're facing a team of Bulldogs.)
"Take the disdain you feel toward the competition and channel it into a delicious and creative meal that will inspire your fellow fans and intimidate the opposition," he writes.
Some teams require more creativity than others.
"You're not going to eat tiger, obviously," he told us. "But you could make a red cocktail and call it tiger's blood."
Regardless of your theme — or the number of tailgates under your belt — let the food take center stage, he suggests.
"Go for quality over quantity," Mathis says. "Pick one or two great dishes and do them well."
Because once you walk into that stadium, greatness is up for grabs.
"You can't control how your team performs on the field," he says. "All you can do is throw the best pregame celebration possible."
Here are recipes to get your season started.
Chicken-sweet potato kebabs
Prep: 1 hour
Marinate: Overnight
Cook: 12-15 minutes
Makes: 12 kebabs
Note: Adapted from "The Southern Tailgating Cookbook" (University of North Carolina Press, $30), by Taylor Mathis.
2 1/2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon each: coarse ground black pepper, ground sage
1/4 cup olive oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size cubes
1 each: red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, orange bell pepper
1 medium yellow onion
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into bite-size pieces, parboiled, cooled
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon each: salt, Dijon mustard, coarse ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1. For the chicken, whisk the vinegar, Worcestershire, mustard, salt, pepper and sage together in a bowl. Continue whisking while slowly pouring in the olive oil. Add chicken to a large zip-close plastic bag; pour in the marinade. Seal; refrigerate overnight.
2. For the vegetables, chop the peppers and onion into bite-size pieces. Add to a large zip-close plastic bag along with the sweet potatoes. Whisk the vinegar, salt, mustard and pepper together in a bowl. Continue whisking while drizzling in the olive oil. Pour over the vegetables. Seal; refrigerate overnight.
3. The next day, assemble the kebabs at home. (Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using.) Alternate pieces of chicken, vegetables and sweet potatoes on 12 skewers. (Discard marinade.) Transfer the skewers in covered containers to your tailgate event.
4. Grill over medium-high heat, turning once, until the vegetables are softened and the chicken is cooked, 12-15 minutes.

Poblano stuffed with chorizo, shrimp and rice
Prep: 1 hour
Cook: 45 minutes
Makes: 12 large peppers or about 50 small peppers
Notes: Adapted from a recipe from Guy Fieri's show "Guy's Big Bite" on the Food Network. We used mini sweet peppers, yielding appetizer-size bites for a crowd. Also, Fieri calls for lopping off the tops to stuff the peppers. We slit them along one side for easier stuffing and grilling.
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 pound Mexican-style chorizo, casings removed
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 jalapeno, minced
1 red onion, diced
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 cup short-grain rice
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/2 cup each: white wine, water
12 large poblano chili peppers or about 50 small sweet peppers
1 pound cooked shelled shrimp, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup each, shredded: cheddar, Jack cheese
1. Heat oil and chorizo in a saucepan over medium-high heat; cook, 3 minutes. Add chopped peppers, jalapeno, onion and garlic; cook until softened. Add rice; cook, stirring to coat the rice with oil. Stir in the chicken stock, wine and water; heat to a boil. Cover; reduce heat. Simmer, 20 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, place poblanos on a rimmed baking sheet; bake in 400 degree oven, 15 minutes. Allow to cool. Once cool, cut top off of the peppers or slit them down one side; remove ribs and seeds.
3. When rice is done, fluff with a fork; stir in shrimp. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt if needed. Stuff chilies with the rice mixture. Pack in covered containers.
4. On site, sprinkle exposed stuffing with the cheeses. Grill peppers over medium heat until heated through and cheese melts.

Forza Motorsport series
Group DescriptionThe Forza Motorsport series (or just Forza for short) of racing games simulation games developed by Turn 10 Studios and published by Microsoft Games Studios, exclusively for the Xbox, Xbox 360 and Xbox One games consoles.
The games focus on realistically recreating recreating both the appearance and handling of real life road going cars, from small conventional hatchbacks to super cars and hyper cars, as well as several real world racing cars designed only for track-only racing usage.
It is often billed as the Xbox's answer to the Playstation's Gran Turismo series of racing games, having more in the way of additional features such as being able to apply paint job's to each car and add after market parts in lieu of Gran Turismo's extensive car list, although the number of cars featured in Forza games have been increasing over the iterations.
The Forza series also heavily features real world race courses in various track layouts, Such as Britain's Silverstone circuit, Japan's Suzaka track and Germany's feared Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit.
For games in the open world spin-off of this series, see the Forza Horizon series game group.

PCRM Position Paper on Animal Research
PCRM Position Paper on Animal Research
Approved by the PCRM Board of Directors, July 21, 2010
The primary purpose of medical research is to promote human health, and the most direct research methods focus on the study of human populations, individuals, and tissues. Animal research has been used as an alternative method when the study of humans is deemed impractical or unethical, or when animal biology is of primary interest. Animals are frequently used in biological and medical research, in the testing of drugs and commercial products, and in educational exercises in the sciences. While the number of animals used in the United States is not known, estimates range into several tens of millions annually.
Ethical concerns are raised by the use of animals in experimental studies, particularly when they are subjected to painful procedures or toxic exposures. These concerns are accentuated by studies showing marked stress responses in animals undergoing common laboratory procedures. For example, routine handling, venipuncture, and gavage (the administration of test compounds through an oral tube) elicit striking elevations in pulse, blood pressure, and steroid hormone release that can persist for an hour or more after the event. Similarly, routine features of the laboratory environment—isolation, confinement, social disruption, noise, and restrictions on physical movement—have been shown to be noxious for animals. Together, these bodies of evidence indicate that even experiments that appear to be minimally invasive can be highly stressful for the animal subjects, and this finding applies to commonly used rodent species as well as larger and less frequently used animals. Stress effects are relevant to humane concerns as well as to the interpretation of scientific findings. Research on immune function, endocrine and cardiovascular disorders, neoplasms, developmental defects, and psychological phenomena are particularly vulnerable to stress effects.
Promoting Nonanimal Methods
Ethical concerns have propelled the exploration of methods that replace animal use. However, such methods may also have scientific advantages related to cost or applicability to human disease. For example, toxicologists seeking more efficient methods have turned to cellular screening tests for many applications and have sometimes realized substantial savings in the process. Trauma training, once conducted almost universally using animals, is now commonly taught with simulators that are cheaper and are designed to more closely mimic critical aspects of patient care.
In August 2007, the US National Research Council published Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century: A Vision and a Strategy,which described limitations of animal-based toxicology tests and proposed a new focus on non-animal methods that may present potential advantages over animal tests. In January 2008, the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Institutes of Health's National Toxicology Program and Chemical Genomics Center signed a Memorandum of Understanding pledging joint funding and research for the replacement of animals in toxicology testing with nonanimal methods. Both documents support the concept that replacement of animal-based methods in toxicology promises practical benefits, aside from humane advances.
It is incumbent on scientists and institutions using animals for research, testing, or educational purposes to actively investigate and implement alternatives. The federal Animal Welfare Act regulations require that research personnel be trained in methods of searching for alternatives to animal use, and the NIH Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals encourages efforts to develop and use scientifically valid alternatives to animal research. There are three broad scenarios for doing so:
1. In some cases, alternatives are readily available. For example, nonanimal methods in medical education have already been implemented for a wide variety of applications at many medical schools, but are not yet in use at all institutions.
2. In other cases, nonanimal methods may not be apparent. In such cases, development of suitable alternative means should be a high priority. For example, many laboratories produce monoclonal antibodies for research or diagnostic purposes by placing antibody-producing cells in the abdomen of animals, often causing significant pain and distress as the cells produce large amounts of fluid (ascites). While antibodies can also be produced by cellular techniques, there are major technical challenges in so doing for some cell lines.
Pharmaceutical testing presents challenges for the replacement of animal tests. While animal tests leave much to be desired as means of identifying drug-related risks, no alternative test methods are yet acceptable to the Food and Drug Administration for many toxicology endpoints.
In these cases, the most appropriate course of action is neither to assume that nonanimal methods will be easily produced nor to be resigned to the continued use of animals. Rather, it is incumbent on investigators and research-supporting institutions to make the replacement of animals a priority.
3. For many applications, the replacement of animal use occurs most appropriately, not through a specific alternative method, but by a substantially different approach to the clinical problem at hand. For example, some research centers are assessing the toxic effects of recreational psychoactive drugs by testing them on animals. Another strategy relies on assessing their effects through noninvasive neurological and psychometric testing on humans who have been using such compounds voluntarily.
The Need for Discussion and Collaboration
To address the ethical and practical issues raised by animal research, scientists and research-sponsoring institutions benefit from information sharing, discussion, and debate representing a wide variety of opinions. Toward that end, governmental bodies in the U.S. (e.g., the Environmental Protection Agency) and abroad dealing with animal testing issues have implemented policies that ensure that animal welfare advocates and scientists advocating for alternatives to animal tests are represented on scientific and regulatory panels.
In recent years, it has become clear that viewpoints vary greatly on this issue and are highly mutable as new information comes forward. It is helpful to recognize that, generally speaking, implementing nonanimal methods is neither a simple matter nor a theoretical impossibility. While animal welfare considerations mandate a commitment to the replacement of animals, there are areas for which alternatives have not yet been developed or have not yet gained acceptance by regulatory bodies. The impediments to their development and acceptance relate to both technical difficulties and attitudinal issues. In the course of scientific inquiry, many investigators have credited the use of animals with the elucidation of key points, and it remains a matter of conjecture as to whether the same discoveries could have been accomplished by other means. In contrast, the use of animals in education has undergone dramatic changes in the past decade. Most medical schools have eliminated the use of animals from their curricula, and instructional methods at other educational levels have also evolved in the face of changing technologies. A reasonable viewpoint, we believe, is for investigators and institutions using animals to explore and implement nonanimal methods with all due haste and without limit, recognizing that in some cases the practical challenges inherent in doing so are considerable.
PCRM should continue and expand collaborative efforts to address the need for alternatives to animal use. In cooperation with physicians at Harvard University and the Massachusetts General Hospital, PCRM developed educational materials demonstrating clinical alternatives to animal use in medical instruction, and progress in implementing alternatives has been documented in surveys published by PCRM physicians in the Journal of Medical Education and Academic Medicine. PCRM toxicologists have served on scientific panels for the Environmental Protection Agency and on the Board of Directors of the Toxicology Excellence for Risk Assessment. PCRM physicians have published invited papers on animal research issues in Scientific American and Lancet Oncology. Working with outside scientists, PCRM developed a new laboratory technique for assaying insulin that provides alternatives to the ascites method for producing monoclonal antibodies and to the use of fetal calf serum for in-vitro cellular growth. These efforts complement PCRM's primary research work, which focuses on clinical trials in human participants, and are enriched by communication and collaboration with other research organizations.
The process of replacing animals in research, testing, and education is supported by studies showing that routine laboratory procedures and typical laboratory environments are more stressful for animals than is commonly appreciated. Nonetheless, the challenges of replacing animals are often considerable, raising major scientific, economic, and regulatory issues.
The exploration and implementation of nonanimal methods should be a priority for investigators and research institutions and should take advantage of a wide variety of viewpoints to ensure progress toward scientific, human health, and animal protection goals.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. – After a certain point, fare hikes become a tax, Barry Adler told Metropolitan Transit Authority board members at a public hearing Thursday at the Westchester County Center on the MTA's proposed 2013 fare increases.
To close a $450 million shortfall, the MTA is considering a few different proposals that would increase fares and tolls systemwide beginning on or about March 1, 2013. The proposals on the table include fare hikes for the Metro-North train system that would affect Westchester commuters.
Adler, for instance, would pay $11.25 for a one-way peak ticket from White Plains to Grand Central, up from $10.75.
If approved, this 7.14-percent hike would also apply to one-way peak tickets from North White Plains, Scarsdale, Hartsdale, Hastings, Dobbs Ferry, Ardsley and Irvington to Grand Central Station. A one-way off-peak ticket would go from $7.75 to $8.50, an increase of 9.68 percent. A monthly ticket would increase 8.73 percent, from $229 to $249.
The proposed increase would be even steeper for residents who commute from Valhalla, Mt. Pleasant, Hawthorne, Pleasantville, Chappaqua, Tarrytown, Ossining and Croton-on-Hudson. A one-way peak ticket from those communities to Grand Central would increase from $12 to $13. A one-way off-peak ticket would increase from $9 to $9.75. A monthly ticket would increase from $266 to $289.
For riders in Mt. Kisco, Bedford Hills, Katonah, Cortlandt, Goldens Bridge, Cortlandt and Peekskill, a one-way peak ticket to Grand Central Station would increase from $14.25 to $15. A one-way off peak ticket would increase from $10.75 to $11.75. A monthly ticket would increase from $315 to $343.
Tom Durkin of White Plains criticized the MTA's $1 refill fare for MetroCards.
"There's absolutely no place to refill in Westchester," Durkin, 61, said. "The only way to do it is at the MetroCard Van, which only comes every four to five weeks." Durkin pointed out that it didn't arrive at all in October.
There are four proposals for MetroCard increases. Two target base fares, while another two target 30-day unlimited fares.
The first set would raise the base MetroCard fare and local bus cash fare from $2.25 to $2.50, and the 30-day unlimited passes from increase from $104 to either $112 or $109. Another two keep the base fares at $2.25, and focus increases on 30-day unlimited passes, raising it to either $125 or $119.
Adler asked at the meeting, "How do you justify that fare?"
This was the sixth public hearing held on the fare increases. Two were rescheduled due to Hurricane Sandy. Thursday's public hearing was moved to the County Center from the Yonkers Public Library, which suffered flooding during the storm.

Approximately 40 people gathered Saturday night at Logan's Roadhouse in Joplin to commemorate George Washington Carver's death and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Carver Birthplace Association.
Approximately 40 people gathered Saturday night at Logan's Roadhouse in Joplin to commemorate George Washington Carver's death and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Carver Birthplace Association.
George Washington Carver, who was born near the end of the Civil War near Diamond, died on Jan. 5, 1943, at Tuskegee, Ala. He was one America's most remarkable men and one of this country's great scientists.
The Carver Birthplace Association was founded 50 years ago as a group dedicated help the National Park Service in general and the George Washington Carver National Monument in particular.
Primary speakers at this year's meeting were Deb Sheals and Angie Geist Gaebler. Both women are involved in the on-going studies of the 1872 Colored Schoolhouse in Neosho. This is the original school where George Washington Carver got his first chance at a public education.
For the presentation, Deb Sheals talked about the founding of the school in 1872. She noted that after the Civil War, communities were ordered to provide an education for black students. In 1872, the Neosho school board bought a small home on Young Street, which has been built only a year before by James Vawter. They called it Lincoln School.
This school, greatly modified, still stands on its original site. George Washington Carver came to the school in the mid- to late-1870s and stayed with Andrew and Mariah Watkins who lived next door to the school.
Sheals said that the school measured about 14 by l6 feet and accommodated between 20-40 children. In those days, children who were 5-21 years old were considered to be "school age" and a single teacher at Lincoln School probably had all ages of children at the same time in one room.
During the research on the school, the big question that hung over everyone's head was "Was this the actual school building where Carver attended?"
Sheals said the answer is "Yes, he walked on those very floor boards."
Angie Gaebler, a preservation architect, talked about the school building and what was found when it was researched last summer. Since the building was only a year old, school for blacks began immediately. When a larger school for blacks was built in 1891, the original school was sold for $150.
Gaebler showed pictures of the research work, pointing out various things that prove the date of the school. She noted that the school has a large amount of original materials still on site. She showed pictures of the old siding which had been covered with more modern siding. Besides the old siding, there are many original architectural features in the structure that date back to the 1870s.
And Gaebler, as did Sheals, is confident this is Carver's school.
"If you remove a couple of layers, you have what was standing when George Washington Carver was there," she said.
The Carver dinner has been an annual event for about five years and is held in early January.

avalanche, rapidly descending large mass of snow, ice, soil, rock, or mixtures of these materials, sliding or falling in response to the force of gravity. Avalanches, which are natural forms of erosion and often seasonal, are usually classified by their content such as a debris or snow avalanche. Speeds can reach over 200 mi per hr (300 km per hr). They are triggered by such events as earthquake tremors, human-made disturbances, or excessive rainfall on high gradient slopes, often where materials are loosely consolidated or weathered. Avalanches of snow result when weak layers within a snowpack fail to support the weight of the snow above it and collapse, causing the overlying snow to break free and flow downhill. Destruction from avalanches results both from the avalanche wind (the air pushed ahead of the mass) and from the actual impact of the avalanche material.

2009 Grants - Abulrob
Development of Agents and Imaging Modalities for Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease
Abedelnasser Abulrob, Ph.D.
University of Ottawa
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
2009 Molecular Imaging in Alzheimer's Disease Grant
Currently, diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease occurs only after the disease has caused significant declines in memory and cognitive function. The ability to diagnose the disease at a much earlier stage may allow earlier treatment, which may forestall such declines. A major goal of research is to develop imaging methods that allow physicians to reliably diagnose Alzheimer's disease in its earliest stages.
One imaging approach that is being studied involves using dyes to label amyloid plaques in the brain, which are one of the characteristic pathologic features of the disease. Abedelnasser Abulrob, Ph.D. and colleagues are developing an imaging method they hope will allow even earlier detection of Alzheimer pathology. Their method depends on the detection of small clusters of beta-amyloid, a protein fragment that aggregates into amyloid plaques, while the beta-amyloid is still contained inside of nerve cells and before it aggregates into plaques.
Dr. Abulrob's team has developed two key technologies to achieve their goal: small protein fragments that selectively bind to beta-amyloid, and specially modified antibodies that are able to carry small molecules into the brain across the blood-brain barrier. These antibodies are also taken up by nerve cells. The researchers have proposed to use these technologies to deliver dyes to the brain that can detect small clusters of beta-amyloid inside of nerve cells. They will test this method in mice using magnetic resonance imaging and a new imaging technique called near-infrared optical imaging. These studies may lead to the development of ways to detect early stages of Alzheimer's disease using noninvasive imaging techniques.

Last August, before the soccer match between EVERTON and Liverpool, I posted this paeon to "derbies", matches between local rivals. With Liverpool struggling at the time, and the match being played at Everton's Goodison Park, I thought my team might pull off an upset. Instead, we were taken apart 3-0.
Today, in the rematch at Liverpool's Anfield ground, Everton managed a brave 0-0 draw. The Rocket Men of the world sometimes cite 0-0 draws as evidence that soccer is boring. But this match was a thrilling encounter that featured at least five world class saves (three by Everton keeper, Nigel Martyn) and two goal-line clearances (both by Everton).
Here's an account of the match. To save Rocket Man the trouble of using the link, here's the gist of it:
"Everton fans left Anfield singing after inflicting a serious, if not fatal, blow on their bitterest rival's bid to qualify for the Champions League. For Everton the goalless draw was another precious point in their quest to haul themselves away from a possible relegation fight, and they showed tremendous desire and defensive bravery to withstand a near non-stop second-half Liverpool barrage.
"It was a tremendous match, full of all the good things in English football. And even though it only included one booking, the pride and passion was always there. So too was Everton's tremendous defiance. They deserved their point."
HINDROCKET capitulates: I'm convinced, Deacon, I'm convinced. I'm sure my great-grandchildren will be big soccer fans. Actually, your post reminded me of something I read many years ago in a column by Dick Young, a sportswriter for the New York Daily News. He was talking about the state of baseball, and bemoaned the fact that the people who were running the sport didn't understand their product: "They think they're selling entertainment, but they're not. They're selling religion." If I were an Everton fan, the defensive plays that preserved the scoreless tie would have been as exciting as the 3-2-3 double play that Kent Hrbek initiated in the seventh game of the 1991 World Series to, likewise, keep the score 0-0. Being a sports fan is about faith. And hope. And love. And we'll all be hoping that Everton doesn't get relegated.

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Artificial films mimic myelin sheath in new research
Los Alamos researchers and collaborators recently synthesized and characterized highly ordered and stable phospholipid-silica thin films that resemble the multilayer architectures present in nature, such as the myelin sheath that surrounds the axon of a neuron. Phospholipids are the primary building blocks of biological membranes that provide barriers to compartmentalize cells and their components. These membranes are dynamic and fluid in nature, incorporating proteins that perform critical functions including solute transport, signal transduction, and ATP synthesis. Phospholipid-based synthetic nanomaterials have potential applications, including drug delivery, sensing, energy harvesting, and as model systems in basic research. However, their fragility, instability in air and air-water interfaces and lack of long-term stability in aqueous solution limit their utility.
Significance of the research
The journal ACS Nano published the research team's findings, and this is the first report of a hybrid and highly ordered phospholipid-based multilayer assembly that maintains its structure and fluid functionality upon incorporation into a synthetic inorganic matrix. The technique lays a foundation for future applications of artificial membranes in a variety of potential applications including biosensing, proton transport membrane, separations, high throughput drug discovery, and biophysical/biochemical studies.
Research achievements
This process is simple and scalable. The scientists spin-coated phospholipids onto a silicon wafer substrate. Then the team used a near room temperature method to expose the highly ordered lipid films to vapors of silica precursor and water, resulting in the formation of nanostructured hybrid assemblies. Silica forms selectively between the lipid head groups of the layered lipid assemblies. The team precisely controlled the synthesis conditions to achieve either multilayer or hexagonally ordered structures, with thicknesses from 10 to 200 nm.
The films exhibit long-term structural stability in air and when placed in aqueous solutions, and they maintain their fluidity under aqueous or humid conditions. This platform provides a model for robust implementation of phospholipid multilayers and a means toward future applications of functional phospholipid supramolecular assemblies in device integration.
The research team
The Los Alamos team includes Gautam Gupta of the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies, Srinivas Iyer and Kara Leasure of Bioenergy and Biome Sciences, and Andrew M. Dattelbaum of Materials Synthesis and Integrated Devices. Coauthors are Nicole Virdone and Gabriel P. Lopez of Duke University and Plamen B. Atanassov of the University of New Mexico.
Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) and DOE Basic Energy Sciences funded different aspects of the Los Alamos work. The research supports the Lab's Global Security and Energy Security mission areas and Materials for the Future and Science of Signatures science pillars.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) It appears Tim Tebow will be watching from the sideline again.
And this time, the New York Jets backup quarterback might be in sweats instead of his uniform.
Tebow was listed as questionable for the Jets' game Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals because of two broken ribs that limited him all week. Coach Rex Ryan wouldn't officially rule out Tebow, but it sounded unlikely he would play.
``We're looking into it,'' Ryan said Friday. ``He's been limited, really very limited in some of the snaps. He does take a few offensive snaps, but we're just tracking it. We'll see how he feels.
``Could it be a game-time decision? It could be.''
Tebow was injured at Seattle on Nov. 11, played three offensive snaps the following week at St. Louis and was active but didn't play Thanksgiving night against New England. Tebow spent most of the 49-19 blowout loss standing on the sideline with a cap on and his hands in his pockets while Mark Sanchez played the entire game. Ryan said Tebow could have played, but the coach planned to put him in only in ``an emergency.''
Ryan disputed an ESPN report Friday that said he had already made plans to keep Tebow inactive.
``It could be true, but right now, we haven't done anything,'' Ryan said. ``I haven't made that decision or anyone else made that decision. Whether there's speculation or not, that's a decision that I haven't made.''
Wide receiver Clyde Gates (concussion) was listed as doubtful for the game, while cornerback Aaron Berry (quadriceps), nose tackle Sione Po'uha (back) and linebacker Ricky Sapp (ankle) joined Tebow as questionable.
Third-stringer Greg McElroy would be the backup to Sanchez if Tebow is not active. Ryan insisted that players have been active and participated in games with broken ribs, and he will evaluate the situation leading up to kickoff. Tebow would wear heavy protection around his rib area if he does play.
Tebow said he didn't do much during practice all week, and throwing still bothers his ribs - he's a left-handed passer and the injury is on his left side. Despite Tebow being cleared by the team doctors to play, Ryan was criticized last week for keeping him active rather than McElroy.
``I feel like I'm getting a little bit better every day,'' Tebow said. ``Obviously, I'd love to be out there doing everything, but they're trying to be smart, so just slowly progressing with things every day. It'll be up to coach and the docs.''
Part of the decision involves Tebow's role, in that he has only thrown seven passes all season and he is used mostly in wildcat-style packages on offense and as the punt protector on special teams. So, not being able to throw wouldn't necessarily rule Tebow out from playing.
``You're not going out there and asking him to throw it 50 times a game,'' Ryan said. ``If that was the case, I'm not sure he could do that.''
McElroy, a seventh-round pick last year out of Alabama, missed last season with a thumb injury and has been inactive every week so far this year.
``I'm sure it'll be similar to last week where it'll be a decision that's made on game day and just before the game,'' McElroy said. ``But if Tim's feeling healthy and ready to go, then he'll be the guy.''
Tebow insisted that the pain hasn't made him pessimistic about his chances about playing, but did say that the matchup with the Cardinals is ``absolutely'' a must-win if the Jets plan to keep their playoff chances alive. He added that he's used to playing football through injuries and pain.
``It's probably a little bit in my nature,'' he said. ``At the same time, you try to be smart and listen to wise counsel, but I guess sometimes that can be something I'm not the best at.''
