quality ingredients taste and size is big i used all of the package it’s great for who’s on a diet or with diabetes recipe is easy to follow would order more because of the benefits and good serving size 👌
I don't usually use these ready made mixes, but my friends had just finished telling me about the delicious cornbread they ate over the holidays, and I guess I had a craving. I eat low carb, and I'm used to monk fruit, erythritol and maltitol as sugar substitutes, but I don't particularly like stevia... however, this is not meant to be a sweet treat, so there is very little sweetener in the mix and I didn't notice any aftertaste at all. Follow the instructions... especially on how to cool and store. I cut and froze in small pieces and then microwaved for about 10 seconds, added a bit of butter and enjoyed every last piece.
I ordered this for the first time.. it says that the main flour is almond flour so i wanted to try it on my regular gluten free pancake recipe but it was a little bit fragile.. then i used the same recipe in the waffle machine and it ccame out perfectly good.. its good quality, affordable on promotion, highly recommended.. Recipe: 1/2 cup milk of any kind 1 cup flour 1 tbs maple syrup Vanilla 1 egg 1tesp baking powder If it was regular almond flour it will come out good as pancakes but this mix i recommend using it as waffle recipe.
This baking mix is wonderful and simple to make. I use a cast iron biscuit pan and a 3 T cookie scoop to make 7 large biscuits. Makes great low carb sandwiches. Thanks for selling this at a great discount.
I bought this hot my husband as he wishes to buy down on his carbohydrate intake. He loves it saying that it is even better tasting than the regular corn bread. The quality is also high!! Highly recommended.
I made this and love the flavor. I add corn flavoring and it is amazing. I was amazed at the serving size, This is great for a diabetic that wants to limit their carbs.
This quality and ingredient as well as taste surpassed my expectations. I recommend to use it frequently. The serving size assisted me well. My keto kid love it.
This tastes so good. It really tastes like cornbread. I toast it sometimes and make avocado toast. My husband and I love it.
taste great. my picky husband love it and feel safe.
Amazing 🤩 I can’t find their other mixes on here anymore though-hope back in stock soon!

St Kilda Village. General view from North East.
Description St Kilda Village. General view from North East.
Date c. 1878
Catalogue Number SC 416620
Category On-line Digital Images
Copy of IN 2368
Scope and Content 1870s photograph of village, Hirta, St Kilda, Hebrides St Kilda was settled in ancient times but repopulated after 1727 when a smallpox epidemic left only 30 survivors. The only village, on Hirta, was rebuilt in the 1830s and evacuated in 1930 after the population had shrunk to under 30. This shows the village in about 1878. At the time, the islanders were enthusiastic members of the Free Church. The long hours spent in regular church and prayer meetings are thought to have contributed to the island's decline. St Kilda's subsistence economy was based on sheep-rearing, egg-collecting and bird-harvesting, as well as crofting and fishing. Most of the work depended on the weather and the season and was easily disrupted by a strict timetable of religious observance. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.

Whilst the exact cause of Tuesday’s huge explosion in the Port of Beirut hasn’t yet been confirmed, links between the explosion site and Lebanese-based terror group Hezbollah haven’t been ruled out.
A source was quoted in The Telegraph at the time saying the ammonium nitrate was to be used for “proper organized terrorism” and could have caused “a lot of damage.”
CUFI reported last year that the MI5 and the Metropolitan Police raided four properties in North West London in 2015 after receiving a tip from a foreign intelligence agency. They discovered thousands of disposable ice packs containing ammonium nitrate, which is a common ingredient in homemade bombs.
A man in his forties was arrested, according to The Telegraph, on suspicion of plotting terrorism, but was eventually released without charges. The paper quoted “well placed sources” as saying that “the plot had been disrupted by a covert intelligence operation rather than seeking a prosecution.”
According to the report, the plot was part of a wider Hezbollah plan to lay the groundwork for future attacks and noted foiled Hezbollah operations in Thailand, Cyprus and New York. All those plots were made public and were believed to have targeted Israeli interests around the world.
The Telegraph said the Cyprus case was strikingly similar to the one in London. In 2015 in Cyprus, confessed Hezbollah agent Hussein Bassam Abdallah was sentenced to six years in jail after he was found with 8.2 tons of ammonia nitrate in his home. He had reportedly planned to attack Israeli targets.
The Telegraph said its information came after a three-month investigation in which more than 30 current and former officials in Britain, America and Cyprus were approached and court documents were obtained.
The Telegraph said that in Cyprus the ammonia nitrate was also stored in ice packs, saying that they were a convenient, seemingly harmless and easy to transport.
Sources told The Telegraph that the UK plot was at a very early stage and no targets had been selected. It said UK intelligence used to opportunity to try and establish what Hezbollah was up to and so did not disrupt it immediately.
“In the years 2018-2019, Israel found that dual-use items are smuggled into Lebanon to advance Hezbollah’s rocket and missile capabilities,” Danny Danon revealed to the Security Council.
Danon said that Iran’s Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), which directs Iranian interventions abroad, had begun “to advance the exploitation of the civilian maritime channels, and specifically the Port of Beirut.”
“The Port of Beirut has become the Port of Hezbollah,” Danon said.
Danon disclosed that Iran and Hezbollah were aided by Syrian agents who purchased the dual-use equipment — meaning it can be used for both civilian and military purposes — from foreign civilian companies and transferred it to Lebanon. These agents misled the companies when they officially unloaded the equipment at the Port of Beirut, Danon said, which was then transported to Hezbollah’s missile production facilities.
Danon said that Hezbollah regularly uses civilian centers in Lebanon to illegally transport arms, in “flagrant violation” of UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which calls for the disarming of the terrorist organization. Danon also presented the Security Council with a map of various weapons transfer routes.
The Israeli envoy urged UN member states to take extra precautions with regard to the sale of dual-use equipment.
“Are you absolutely sure your companies are not the ones selling dual-use equipment to the hands of Hezbollah?” Danon asked. “Are you sure your citizens know the end-users of these dual-use items?”

Detection of Leaf Diseases Using Deep Learning
AbstractAgriculture, the backbone of India, is declining due to many reasons, one of the main of which is that plants are affected by diseases. Potatoes and tomatoes are also important plants and seeds rich in vitamin C and potassium, which are very useful for improving the health and productivity of food products. In this work, we use Mobile Net V3 architecture and neural networks to detect potato and tomato leaf diseases. In this process, data is collected from the Kaggle dataset. The network includes three classes early blights, late blights and healthy conditions of the leaves which works on TensorFlow platform. In this work Convolutional Deep neural network helps the model to learn using various layers based on looping process. It uses the multiclass classification. This paper proposes of various modules which includes (i) Pre-processing module (ii) Normalization (iii) Layers (iv) Optimizer (v) Model fit (v) E-poach. In future, it will help the farmers to identify the right diseases at an early stage which will be very helpful in taking the right measures and using the right insecticides to recover the leaves.

Engineers at Duke University’s Pratt School of Engineering have come up with software that twists the data composing volumetric ultrasound images into stereoscopic views, creating images that appear to float off display monitors into 3D space. The software splits the single ultrasound image into two separate images 7° from each other -- one seen by the right eye and the other by the left.
Engineers at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering have come up with software that twists the data composing volumetric ultrasound images into stereoscopic views, creating images that appear to float off display monitors into 3D space. The software splits the single ultrasound image into two separate images 7° from each other - one seen by the right eye and the other by the left.
"The eyes can fuse those images in the brain either with no additional help or with stereo glasses like at 3D IMAX movies," said Stephen Smith, a professor of biomedical engineering at Duke. "A number of companies are working on true stereovision displays that will allow them to be seen without glasses."
Philips Medical Systems showed an example in March at the European Congress of Radiology in Vienna. A big-screen LCD running specialized algorithms turned flat medical images into 3D reconstructions that appeared to hang in midair (DI SCAN, 3/13/07, Wall-hung flat panels transform earthbound images at European Congress).
"Medical ultrasound could ride along on those innovations," Smith said.
Thousands of 3D ultrasound systems in clinics could be upgraded with such software, he said. Built into ob/gyn ultrasound systems, the software could support a better evaluation of the fetus. Craniofacial malformations of the fetus might be more apparent.
But the potential does not stop there. The Duke press release suggests the use of this software to make keepsake DVDs of the fetus, which "could also be viewed at home in 3D stereo," Smith is quoted as saying.
Fueling consumer interest in such software is a video running on YouTube depicting in 3D a "model human fetus" - an ultrasound phantom - prepared with the Duke software. The university's press release provides the link and challenges the viewer to "see if you can fuse them without goggles."
Attesting to the appeal of such keepsakes are the 200-plus 3D ultrasounds now residing on YouTube.
This nexus with consumer applications has led some medical experts to caution against the use of medical ultrasound for keepsake videos, fearing that unnecessary exposure, even to nonionizing radiation, may be harmful. Smith is uninterested in how the software he and others have created at Duke might be used.
"There are always issues with new technology," he said. "I really don't have a position on that."
Smith is not trying to lay the groundwork for commercializing his brainchild, certainly not for consumer applications. He and his colleagues are focusing on advanced research applications of ultrasound with plans to integrate the newly developed software into new probes, including an ultrasound-enhanced laparoscope. Ultimately, their work could lead to real-time 3D sonography that can guide a robotically controlled surgical instrument to its target (DI SCAN, 11/6/07, Commentary: Welcome, robot). Smith notes how the use of stereo vision has already proved useful in optical endoscopes.
"It could be stereo 3D will have equal value, when doing laparoscopic surgery under ultrasound guidance," he said.

Tojiro Supreme knives, are insanely sharp. These knives are made out of the finest Damascus steel wrapped around a VG-10 core to provide a very hard cutting edge (Rockwell 60-62). A sister range to the Senkou/Flash range, these knives all feature a hollow steel handle, rather than a traditional Micarta handle.
The handles are made from a hollow stainless steel that is comfortable to use. There is also a special die cast bolster welded onto the handle of the knives, which provides a smooth touch and comfortable grip. The overall knife is as sharp as you could possibly imagine, but it has the weight and presence of a European knife.

Third Citation To Enter Service This Year
Cessna Aircraft Company delivered its first Citation CJ3
Wednesday. This marks the third new Citation model to enter service
in 2004. Earlier this year Cessna certified and delivered the first
Citation XLS and Citation Sovereign.
"The CJ3 is an excellent addition to the family of CitationJets
and has been enthusiastically accepted in the market place," stated
Cessna's President and CEO Jack Pelton. "We've received many
positive comments from customers about the CJ3. This is in part
because the final performance figures far surpassed what we
originally listed as the preliminary performance figures."
The Citation CJ3, model 525B, received its FAA type
certification on October 15, 2004. The aircraft features the most
comfortable cabin in its class, new Williams International FJ44-3A
engines, and advanced fully integrated Collins avionics system. The
CJ3 is certified for single pilot operation and has a maximum
cruise speed of 417 knots at 33,000 feet. With two pilots, full
fuel, four passengers and baggage, the CJ3 offers over 1,800 NM of
range with NBAA IFR reserves. Service ceiling is 45,000 feet and
the maximum gross takeoff weight is 13,870 lbs.
The CJ3's delivery comes just two years after the program was
announced at the 2002 NBAA Convention. Cessna has received over 130
non-refundable CJ3 orders worth over $800 million.

Just imagine that rich and creamy, slightly spicy cheese added to the heat of the peppers -- all in a delicious burger!
Once the onion mixture has cooled, in a large mixing bowl, combine it with the turkey, cheese, salt, sugar, cumin and pepper. Use your hands to blend all of the ingredients together so they are evenly distributed.
Always taste jalapeños (or any chile peppers) before you use them. Depending on how much heat you want, you can use more or less of the suggested amount. They always vary -- from day to day, and pepper to pepper.

Billings TrailNet celebrates Ales for Trails’ 21st birthday on September 9, 2022. The original Ales for Trails event began under Skypoint in downtown Billings in 2001, entertaining a few hundred guests with local microbrews and bicycle stunts. The event raised approximately $10,000 to grow and support the Billings trail system.
It was an idea that caught on and has grown to be a community favorite. Over the years, the fundraiser has added silent disco, giant beer pong, a fat-tire bike raffle and a brewers competition.
Founders of the event include George Moncure, former owner of Yellowstone Valley Brewing Co.; Mike Tuss, retired CTA principal; and Darlene Tussing, retired Alternate Modes Coordinator for the city of Billings.
Originally from Fort Collins, Colo., Moncure enjoyed that city’s miles of “exquisite bike trails, and liked how they affected the quality of life.” Moncure found others as enthusiastic about developing a trail system in Billings when he moved to the city and began brainstorming fundraisers to help the City of Billings develop trails. The group came up with the idea of a bike and brewfest, where fellow trail enthusiast Mike Tuss of Cushing Terrell (formerly CTA Architects and Engineers) came up with the name, Ales for Trails.
While the event changed locations over the years, from The Billings Depot to Dehler Park and now ZooMontana, it has continued to grow in popularity and entertain thousands of guests.
Since 2001, Ales for Trails has raised more than $1.4 million and has enabled Billings TrailNet, the event’s beneficiary, to give the City of Billings more than $750,000 for trail development, maintenance and trail amenities.
This year, guests at Ales for Trails will enjoy a selection of more than 50 local and regional microbrews, seltzers, wine and nonalcoholic drinks, plus silent disco, giant beer pong, a brewers competition, a photo booth and live music from Repeat Offenders.
Tickets to Ales for Trails are on sale online now through Sept. 8, 2022, at alesfortrails.com and will be available for purchase for an early bird discount at The Base Camp, The Spoke Shop, Yellowstone Fitness, or at the gate for full price.
No one under the age of 21 will be allowed through the gate, and Billings TrailNet urges its guests to drink responsibly at the event.

If you are looking for a lovely, relaxing weekend destination with fantastic food, beautiful scenery, and interesting places to visit, look no further than Door County, Wisconsin! This charming peninsula in Lake Michigan is home to fish boils, everything cherry flavored, and swimming and boating. It's packed with fun things to do for the whole family!
If you love to travel and explore new places, you might also be interested in my posts about the best things to see, eat, and do in Savannah, Georgia, Kauai, Hawaii, or Big Sur, California! Or if you are just here for the recipes, check out my dessert archives for inspiration!
Roadtripping across the U.S.A.? Make Door County a stop!
We recently did a 4-week roadtrip from California to Michigan and back and were lucky enough to stop in Door County for a long weekend. We wish we could have spent more time there though since there was so much to do and see!
If you find yourself driving across the country or you live in the midwest, Door County is less than a 4 hour drive from Chicago and 3 hours from the Wisconsin Dells. It's well worth at least a few days stay and we could easily have spent an entire week exploring and relaxing here!
These are some of our favorite things that we did during our 3-day stay.
Go for a scenic drive
Although this is the simplest activity we did while in Door County, it was one of the best parts! Every road was beautiful as they passed through forests and fields. The beautiful big barns are kept in pristine condition and we found ourselves pulling over frequently so we could stop and take photos of our favorites.
Some of our favorite towns that we bounced between were Bailey's Harbor, Sister Bay, and Fish Creek.
We can only imagine how pretty this area must be during the spring when the cherry trees are in blossom or in the fall when the leaves change colors. We were there in the summer when the fields were still green and the blue sky was filled with fluffy white clouds all day long.
Look for lighthouses
There are eleven lighthouses in Door County. With over 300 miles of rocky shoreline, these historic lighthouses are an important part of the history of the area and each one is beautiful and different.
If you only have time for one lighthouse, the Cana Island Lighthouse is possibly the most popular and most photographed one in the region. It's on a little island that you can sometimes wade across to, but other years you need to be driven over in a tractor pulling a flatbed trailer because the water has a tendency to wash out the rocky causeway.
Our kids loved seeing the tractor chug along through the water to come pick us up. And even though the ride across the causeway was short, it was definitely a novel way of getting from one point to another to drive through the lake!
The Cana Island Lighthouse was built in 1869 and wasn't automated until 1944. We weren't allowed to climb the spiral staircase inside the lighthouse during our visit because of social distancing restrictions, but it has 97 stairs and apparently you can get great views of Lake Michigan from the top when it's open.
There is a little museum and gift shop on the island, and you have to pay a small fee once you get there. The lighthouse itself is beautiful, but what we really found fascinating was exploring the rooms in the attached house where the lighthouse keeper and his family would live.
Be sure to walk past the lighthouse to the edge of the water. It was calm and clear on the day that we were there, but it was interesting to imagine what it must be like here during storms.
Some of the other more popular choices of lighthouses to visit in the area include Sturgeon Bay Canal North Point Pierhead Lighthouse (a beautiful red structure that was on our list but we just ran out of time to get to) and the Bailey's Harbor Range Lights.
While some of the nearly dozen lighthouses are accessible by land, you might want to consider a lighthouse and shipwreck boat tour so you can see more of them. It's one of the reasons we would love to go back for an extended visit!
Where and what to eat in Wisconsin
Wisconsin is home to so much delicious food! One of our favorite things about travel is trying new foods and making sure to experience local specialties!
Fresh or Fried Cheese Curds
Of course, cheese is a big one in Wisconsin. The state is famous for their cheese curds, which are fresh little bites of squeaky cheddar cheese. I loved the fresh ones that squeak between your teeth when you chew them, but my whole family loved the fried cheese curds best.
Door County Cherry Pie
My favorite thing in Door County though is their famous cherry pie! At one point, Door County produced something like 95% of the country's cherries. Their tart cherries are bright red and perfect for pie, which you can get by the slice at a lot of places around the peninsula.
Blue Moon Ice Cream
This electric blue ice cream is a favorite for kids who grow up in this part of the country apparently. Of course our 6-year old wanted to try it, so I took a taste but for the life of me can't put a finger on what it tasted like. Sort of like a mix of almond and citrus, perhaps? Although from my research it sounds like it's a little different everywhere you go and there is no one set flavor. In some cases, it may even just be plain vanilla ice cream dyed blue.
It is a travesty that I don't have a photo of the cherry kringle we picked up at Lautenbach's Family Vineyard. It's a cherry filled breakfast pastry that is shaped like an oval tire and it's absolutely delicious! Racine, Wisconsin is famous for it's kringles, which you can actually order online if you want to try one yourself but can't make the trip anytime soon!
If you are following my American Eats series where I visit the famous foods of each state, you will definitely be seeing this one recreated in my own kitchen as it was Paul's favorite thing of the whole trip. If you stop at Lautenbach's for a cherry kringle, I recommend picking up the cherry donuts as well because they were super delicious!
Wilson's for ice cream
This was one of our first stops the night we arrived in Door County. The historic building with it's signature red and white striped awning has stunning views of the lake if you can sit outside on the patio to enjoy your ice cream. Wilson's is a restaurant and you can get dinner here too, which we did. The food was pretty standard - burgers, fish sandwiches, salads - but the ice cream and cherry pie was excellent!
Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant
Be sure to hit up this iconic restaurant for Swedish pancakes or Swedish meatballs! The Danes and Swedes settled large parts of Wisconsin and it has had a big influence on the food and culture of the region. A big part of my ancestry is Danish and Swedish (my grandparents were Johnsons too, actually), so obviously we had to stop at Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant and Butik for breakfast one morning!
It's famous for more than just it's delicious pancakes served with lingonberry jam . A highlight is seeing the goats grazing on the grass roof of the building. It's quite an unusual site and so fun to see!
Go to a fish boil
This was another experience my friend Melissa recommended. Think of a fish boil as a Scandanavian take on a chuck wagon dinner or a Hawaiian luau. Everybody gathers around a large kettle filled with boiling water set over a fire. Potatoes, onions, and salt are added and cooked first, followed by corn on the cob, and finally a big basket of fresh white fish caught from the lake that morning.
Then once the fish has cooked and everything in the pot is done, they do what's called a "boil over" where they pour fuel over the fire underneath the kettle to cause the liquid to spill over the top of the pot. That top layer of liquid is loaded with grease that has cooked off the fish, and the reason for boiling it over is then you can remove the baskets of fish, potatoes, and corn without pulling them through all that grease since it has literally boiled over!
It's quite something to see and you can feel the heat wave from the fire as it surges 10 feet high or more! Oohs and ahhs and applause obviously ensue and there is relieved laughter as everyone goes to find a seat at their table.
The food was actually really quite good - it comes with some brown bread and applesauce as well, along with a slice of cherry pie (of course) for dessert.
There are multiple fish boils in the area that happen on different nights of the week, and most places do a few different boil overs each night. You will want to make a reservation ahead of time because they have limited seating.
Test your skill at cherry pit spitting
Cherries are a pretty big deal in Door County. If you are there at the right time of year, I would definitely recommend going cherry picking at a U-pick cherry farm. We were there just a little bit too early, but still enjoyed stopping by Lautenbach's Orchard Winery & Market.
Every year there is a cherry pit spitting contest is held at Lautenbach's. But you can test your skill any time by picking up some free cherries from the market to give it a try. It was fun and hilarious teaching the girls how to spit their pits!
Stroll around the towns
If you love window shopping and quaint historic downtowns, then Door County is definitely the place for you. Each of the towns we stopped at had yummy ice cream and candy shops, plenty of kitschy souvenir shops, and great home decor type shops to look through. Not to mention loads of fantastic restaurants to eat at when you get hungry.
Watch the sun set over Lake Michigan
If you are on the bay side of the peninsula, be sure to stop and spend some time enjoying the sun as it goes down. The colors of the sunset over the lake are just magical.
Visit a state or county park
We spent an afternoon hiking around Cave Point County Park, followed by swimming in Lake Michigan at the neighboring Whitefish Dunes State Park.
If you have a kayak, you can see limestone caves from the water at Cave Point County Park. Or sign up for a kayaking tour to get the equipment you need and go with a guide. But from the land there is an easy hiking trail along the cliffs.
We actually saw quite a few people cliff jumping, but there are no lifeguards on duty and it wasn't something that we were interested in with the kids.
The beach at Whitefish Dunes State Park was absolutely wonderful. We were surprised at just how warm the water was! Unfortunately, we didn't come prepared for such nice temperatures and had left swimsuits at the hotel thinking the water would be too cold.
So after wading further and further, our girls ended up swimming in their clothes! Thank goodness for warm July afternoons!
The water was beautiful, clear, and warm. And it was surprisingly shallow for quite a ways out. We easily could have spent the whole day just playing here. I highly recommend packing a picnic lunch and beach towels.
We hiked out wet, sandy, and happy at the end of the day. It was the perfect finish to our last night in Door County.

Representation is incredibly important. Not just in our media, but in our everyday lives. When we are young we look up to people and dream about seeing ourselves in their shoes. Young children look to see themselves reflected in everyday life as teachers, astronauts, politicians, actors, artists, scientists, and so much more. It is also just as important that we continue to see representation as we get older. Lab Girl is an extremely good example of the honest representation of a woman in science.
Though we have moved forward in seeing more women in tenured research positions, but that portrayal is not always honest. We see these women, but we don’t see the struggle, the harassment, the pain. We don’t see the odds that they overcame, and the hard work they put in to keep their heads above water in a field that is dominated by white cishet men.
Hope Jahren, a Minnesota native, lays out her entire journey from child to tenured researcher in this memoir and interlaces every memory with eloquent narratives on trees and the life of a plant. Anyone who has ever had any aspirations of moving into science, particularly as a person assigned female at birth, will relate to Jahren’s recounting of being a young inquisitive scientist, as she learns from various people in her life and eventually grows into the scientist she is now. Her story recounts relationships that are difficult to not relate to people in your own life, and absurd scenarios that are so specific you wonder how they even happened to the author herself.
The most important part of this journey, in addition recounting her struggle becoming scientist as a woman, is becoming and continuing to be a scientist while battling mental illness. Jahren recounts her own experiences shadowboxing her invisible demons, and still trying to continue being productive and move her career forward. She does not make her experiences sound pretty, but gives you each difficult detail that truly depicts what it is like to live with mental illness. Mental illness is not talked about enough in science, despite awareness becoming more common place, and mental illness is certainly not talked enough amongst high ranking scientists. As students we hear article on article reminding us that graduate students are the most vulnerable population for depression and anxiety, but we see our mentors and superiors succeeding with no sign that any of them could possible carry the same internal pain. Lab Girl does a great job of smashing that barrier.
Hope Jahren is a very successful scientist, but that success was not handed to her. Her writing is as honest as it is inspiring, and anyone who is a minority in science will find this book to be relatable and important as they fight through their own battles in academia.
About the author: TL Jordan (They/Them) is a second year immunology graduate student working in the Ramirez-Alvarado lab. They passionate about science communication, science advocacy, and LGBTQ equality. In addition to their graduate studies they are the Social Media representative of the Graduate Student Association, the Chair of the LGBTI MERG Student Group, and the assistant goalkeeper coach at RCTC. They believe firmly that science should be accessible to everyone.

Data suggest beneficial effect of ECCO-50 for knee osteoarthritis:
full data set expected Q3 2016
SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYTX) announced today the top-line
data as part of the pre-specified partial unblinding of 24 week follow
up data from the company’s ACT-OA trial. The trial is a U.S. phase II
randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial designed to evaluate
the safety and feasibility at 48 weeks of a single intra-articular knee
injection of the ECCO-50 cellular therapeutic in patients with chronic
knee pain due to osteoarthritis.
“Key endpoints and trends observed thus far suggest that a beneficial
effect may be attributable to a single intra-articular administration of
ECCO-50 in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee,” said Dr. Marc H.
Hedrick, President and CEO of Cytori Therapeutics. “The full 48 week
data set is the next important milestone in this program. While we
continue to move our clinical pipeline along, the company will remain
intensely focused on bringing to market our lead therapeutic for
scleroderma which is currently in phase III.”
The primary goal of the ACT-OA trial is to help determine: (1) safety
and feasibility of ECCO-50 for osteoarthritis, (2) provide dosing
guidance and (3) explore key trial endpoints useful for a phase III
trial. As a proof of concept trial, ACT-OA was not sized or powered for
statistical significance in any of the endpoints.
The purpose of the interim 24 week partial unblinding in this trial is
to provide early data that will facilitate key regulatory and business
development discussions and provide better understanding of the
therapeutic mechanism of action that may impact other clinical programs.
The interim analysis pre-specifies the evaluation of a number of patient
reported outcomes important in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.
A total of 94 patients were treated in the trial (30 received a low dose
of ECCO-50 [20 million cells], 31 received a high dose of ECCO-50 [40
million cells] and 33 received placebo). Patients, providers and Cytori
personnel remain blinded to individual patient treatment allocation and
patient subgroup outcomes.
The interim top-line data show the following:
The randomization is relatively balanced among the three treatment
groups: low dose, high dose and placebo.
Intra-articular application of a single dose of ECCO-50 appears to be
safe and feasible in an outpatient day-surgery setting. No
complications occurred related to the fat harvest, cell processing or
A significant placebo response was observed, similar to that
demonstrated in other OA trials.
The pre-specified primary endpoint, pain on walking at 12 weeks, as
measured by a single question from the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis
Outcome Score (KOOS) did not obtain statistical significance.
Key secondary endpoints include the total and sub-scores of the KOOS,
patient assessment of knee pain, knee stability, osteoarthritis
activity and osteoarthritis damage, use of as-needed pain medication,
pain while walking 50 feet and health status as measured by the SF-36.
Consistent trends were observed suggesting improvement in the cell
treated group relative to the placebo group at the 12 and 24 week time
periods for patient reported outcomes.
- Both high dose and low dose of ECCO-50 performed similarly.
In the 3rd quarter, following full unblinding of the data,
the Company will be able to more fully evaluate the data, including 48
week follow up, patient subset analyses, and the effect on knee
cartilage as measured by magnetic resonance imaging results changes
between baseline and 48 weeks.
In summary, patterns of response are suggestive of a beneficial effect
attributable to a single intra-articular administration of ECCO-50 in
patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The full 48 week data are
expected to be available for review during the third quarter of this
year, which will more fully inform further development decisions,
including phase III trial design, cell dose, administration protocol,
inclusion/exclusion criteria, selection of primary and secondary
endpoints and sample size. Further details of the trial can be found on clinicaltrials.gov

During last year’s flooding in the Far East, the military actively assisted the victims using existing equipment. PTS-3 floating conveyors were used to transport various cargoes and evacuate the injured. Nearly two dozen of these machines in total transported several hundred tons of various cargoes, which greatly assisted the population and rescuers. This resulted in the proposal to create a special modification of the newest PTS-4 transporter, designed for non-military use.
According to the press service of the corporation "Uralvagonzavod", employees of the Omsk Transport Engineering Design Bureau (KBTM) have begun to develop a civilian modification of the PTS-4 transporter. It is assumed that the new machine will be operated by various structures of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Environment and other departments. The technical appearance and characteristics of the conveyor will allow him, after minimal changes, to work effectively not only in the armed forces and carry out the tasks assigned to transport soldiers and equipment.
The development of civil modifications PTS-4 started not so long ago, but already some of the features of the perspective car are known. When processing into a civilian version, the military floating conveyor will lose some components and parts, and will also receive a number of new ones. First of all, a new modification of the amphibian will lose its reservation and weapons. The cab of the base conveyor is protected by anti-bullet armor, and also carries a remote-controlled turret with a machine gun. Modification of the PTS-4 for rescuers for obvious reasons does not need armor and a machine gun.
The power plant of the floating machine will undergo certain modifications. According to official data, civilian PTS-4 will have an increased resource of the engine and transmission. Some changes will affect the cabin. In the cockpit of a civilian transporter there will be seats for three crew members, including the driver. Designers KBTM promise to improve the ergonomics of the cabin and, as a consequence, the convenience of the crew.
It is claimed that the new modification of the PTS-4 transporter will have the same characteristics as the base machine. From this it follows that a promising machine will be able to transport cargo weighing up to 12 tons at a speed of up to 60 km / h. When crossing the water barrier, the conveyor will be able to take cargo up to 18 tons and transport it at speeds up to 15 km / h. The dimensions of the cargo platform, apparently, remain the same: 8,28x3,3 meters.
An important feature of the PTS-4 floating conveyor and a promising civilian vehicle based on it are the features of its production. The design of the PTS-4 repeats to some extent the design of the previous PTS-3 conveyor, however, the new machine has a different composition of units and assemblies. In the design of the conveyor PTS-4, some domestic units are used tanks T-80 and T-72. Recall that in the construction of the PTS-3 conveyors, T-64 tank units were used, the serial construction of which ceased at the end of the eighties. The use of tank spare parts will, to a certain extent, simplify the construction and operation of new equipment.
PTS-4 transporter is equipped with tracks and torsions borrowed from the T-80 tank. The box and clutches are taken from the T-72 tank. A multi-fuel diesel engine with an HP 840 power is installed on the conveyor. Own weight of the machine - 33,1 tons. The payload weight depends on the task being performed and the conditions, but does not exceed 18 tons.
From the official information about the new project, it follows that civilian modification of the PTS-4 transporter will have minimal differences from the base machine. From this we can draw some conclusions about the timing of the project. Probably, the completion of the machine for civilian use will take only a few months. A prototype civilian floating conveyor may appear before the end of this year. Nevertheless, the official information about the timing of the completion of the development of the machine is not yet available. Information about the timing of the start of mass construction, too, has not yet been announced.

Small window-mounted air-conditioning units come in a variety of sizes and packages.
The small cooling units are placed in a window that is enclosed and cools the room it is placed in.
Most small room window air conditioners are 6,000 BTUs or less.
How To Size a Window Air Conditioner Cooling Capacity to a Small Room
- 50 to 100 Sq Ft 5,000 BTUs
- 150 to 250 Sq Ft 6,000 BTUs
- 250 to 300 Sq Ft 7,000 BTUs
- 300 to 350 8,000 BTUs
The way to determine what size of the small air-conditioning unit is needed is to measure the square feet of the room. This is done by measuring the width and the length of the room and multiplying it.
So a room that is 10 feet wide by 15 feet long would be 150 square feet.
Air-conditioning unit’s cooling capacity is measured in BTU (British thermal units), which are labeled in every air-conditioning sold.
To get the amounts of BTUs, you will need to apply the square feet of the room by 25 BTUs. So a room that is 150 square feet X 25 = 3750 BTU.
So for this example, the 10′ x 15′ room would need an air-conditioning unit that puts out 3750 BTU.
This can be rounded up depending on how well the room is built as far as insulation and how often the doors are open and closed.
Getting a unit that is much larger than necessary is not a good thing when it comes to air-conditioning. The same can be said for getting a unit that is smaller than necessary.
An air-conditioning unit that is larger than needed will have bigger components, mainly the compressor, which will use more electricity than is needed.
Often what happens when a window air-conditioning unit is oversized where room it will kick on and off more often the needed?
The initial start times of an air conditioner as a large power draw which, to constant cycling, will run up a power bill more than necessary.
A unit that is smaller than needed will run longer and is not constantly running up the electricity bill.
So when sizing a small window air-conditioning unit’s be sure to measure the width by the length and then multiply it by 25 to give the number of BTU necessary.

Two girls escape
from early morning fire
KINGSTON North Kitsap Fire and Rescue crews were able to stop a blaze from spreading beyond a garage of a Kingston home Tuesday morning.
Two 16-year-old girls who were sleeping in the house around 6:15 a.m. when the fire started were able to escape after being awakened by a fire alarm, said firefighters.
As Tiffany Zimmerman and Erin Wright left the house unharmed, a neighbor called 911.
Firefighters were able to enter the house at 24494 Madura Drive and beat back the blaze before it reached the house.
Lt. Ken LeMay said the wall that separated the garage from the house halted the fire while crews doused the flames.
Damage to the house, owned by Wayne Zimmerman, was estimated at about $50,000. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

Anti-gun organizations have revealed their frustration with Joe Biden’s failure to follow-through on promises he made during his campaign about implementing more national gun control.
Four leading civilian disarmament groups – Guns Down America March For Our Lives Newtown Action Alliance Survivors Empowered – sent a letter to the president in which they call on him to “establish an Office of Gun Violence Prevention,” “unveil a comprehensive strategy and proactive plan for pursuing your legislative agenda on gun reform,” and “use the presidential bully pulpit to talk to Americans about the risks and dangers of firearm ownership…”
Politico published a copy of the letter, which says, in part:
“You ran on one of the strongest gun violence prevention platforms in American history, promising to pursue a bold agenda that broadly resonated with voters, particularly young people, across the country… we celebrate [your critical actions on other issues], they fall significantly short of the promises you yourself made while running for the presidency.”
The groups go on to outline statements Biden has made at various events and in different speeches pledging to enact “gun reform” and how he’s failed at every turn.
Biden’s gun-control-enforcer-in-chief, David Chipman, nominated to be the next director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, is fading with each passing day.
Maybe Biden IS the great unifier, after all. Turns out everyone is disappointed by his continued failures…

BMW K 1600 GTL
You have to part with a number of car-related luxuries if you decide to undertake a road trip on a motorcycle rather than in a four-wheeled vehicle. BMWâ€™s new Ã¼ber tourer, the K 1600 GTL, aims to ease the transition from one to the other. Itâ€™s a tricky balance, but the Bavarian bike executes it perfectly.
The BMWâ€™s three load compartments are large enough for a weekend away and the top box can easily hold a full-face helmet. Furthermore, the pillion has the best seat in the house thanks to a big, squishy pew and a wide, high backrest.
A stand-out feature is the standard-fit touchscreen sat/nav at the top of the instrument panel. Below this is another screen that displays trip-computer information, fuel range, settings for the ESA (electronic suspension adjustment) system, tyre-pressure monitoring, audio system and much more.
To navigate between these functions, the rider uses a controller ring sited on the left handlebar that operates in a similar manner to the manufacturerâ€™s iDrive system in its passenger vehicles. With some practice, it becomes simple to control this luxury tourerâ€™s various settings, even while riding.
The position of the windscreen can be electrically adjusted to match the rider’s height. The higher itâ€™s set into the wind stream, the clearer the rider and pillion can hear the BMW’s powerful audio system, which is equipped with auxiliary and USB ports. Cruise control is also standard.
On the road
Swing your leg over the equally comfortable riderâ€™s seat and straighten the bike, and youâ€™ll immediately notice how much lighter and nimbler it feels compared with its main rival, Hondaâ€™s larger, heavier Goldwing.
On the open, flowing roads of the Boland, and with the ESA system set to comfort mode, the GTL proved absorbent but never floaty. Changing these settings to normal or sport sees the suspension firming up for improved control.
I rarely found the need to rev the six-cylinder engine past 4 000 r/min (after all, 70 per cent of the maximum torque is available at 1 500 r/min). In fact, you can pin the throttle in any gear from as low as 1 000 r/min and the GTL accelerates in a controlled, linear fashion. However, shouldÂ you choose to use the entire rev band, the engine sings in perfect pitch.
Take its size and mass into account, and this 1600 feels nimbler and more manageable than we expected. It doesnâ€™t feature an electric reverse gear such as the Honda Goldwingâ€™s, though, so care needs to be taken when parking the bike.
That said, itâ€™s more luxurious and advanced, and rides with more control and compliance.Â During the cold spell that gripped the Western Cape in September, I wouldnâ€™t have been comfortable on any other bike. With the heated seats and grips switched on and tunes streaming through the powerful audio system, the transition from car to bike was easy.
WL: A technological tour-de-force that makes touring so enjoyable.
NL: The most comfortable, capable and luxurious touring motorcycle I have come across.
Engine: 6-cyl, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC
Displacement: 1 649 cm 3
Power (kW/r/min): 118/7 750
Torque(N.m/r/min): 175/5 250

Hi guys! It’s been quite a stressful year for many of us, and I cannot wait for things to get better and us to be able to travel again!
She used the Classic Diamonds Backdrop – Stand-Alone Die for her background. I love the white-on-white background and the contrasting black back panel combination. They go so well with the pink and black palette she used for her adorable images!
I just love the idea of the girl going on on a trip with Paris in her thought bubble, super cute! Allison white heat embossed the big bold letters “BON VOYAGE” from Fun Adventure, and she added some black and silver sequins and gems to complete the look!
Next we have Gladys’s card. She made this slimline card to showcase Paris as well!
She used the polaroid die from Twist-n-Pop Surprise – Stand-Alone Die to capture all the beautiful things that Paris has to offer, baked goods, Eiffel tower, and the SHOPPING!!
Using patterned paper, she cut a slimline back panel using one of the dies from the Dotted Borders Slimline Pull Tab – Stand-Alone Die. I love the simple dotted border details! She used the cute images from the Enchanting Paris stamp set and arranged them into her three polaroids. I also love with the soft pastel palette she chose which is so dreamy!!
For her backgrounds, she blended a combination of Distress Oxides including Shaded Lilac, Tumbled Glass, Mustard Seed, Abandoned Coral, Broken China and Kitsch Flamingo.
Thank you so much for stopping by, have a wonderful weekend!

If Leander Paes sticks to his stand of pulling out of the Olympics, then not only the All India Tennis Association (AITA) but also the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) could find itself in a spot of bother.
The IOA has shortlisted four names for India's flag bearer at the London Games and all of them are Olympic medalists.
Abhinav Bindra, Vijender Singh and Sushil Kumar, all of whom were India's heroes at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, along with Paes find their names in contention for flag bearer's choice.
But Bindra's reluctance to lead the show for India at the opening ceremony on July 27 has left IOA with limited options. "Past medal winners at the Olympics become the automatic choice for the flag bearer but we are looking at other things as well," acting IOA president Vijay Kumar Malhotra told Mail Today. Bindra's event (10m air rifle event) is scheduled the next morning (July 28) of the opening ceremony and the Beijing Olympic gold medalist may not even be part of the ceremony.
The remaining contenders, apart from Paes, too, have their events lined- up on the next day of the opening ceremony.
Boxer Vijender also finds himself in a similar situation with bouts for 75kg category scheduled on July 28. However, he may have his competition later in the evening and could possibly emerge as the frontrunner for the honour, if Paes chooses not to compete in his sixth Olympics.
Wrestler Sushil, who won bronze at the Beijing Games, will also not be available for the opening ceremony as he will be training in Belarus along with the other wrestlers.
As scheduled, the Indian wrestlers will reach London only on July 4 as their competition begins five days later.
Five-time World Champion boxer MC Mary Kom is another athlete with high credentials and one of the most decorated Indian sportspersons who will be participating at the London Olympics.
But Mary Kom may not even be considered as she has her bout on August 4 and she is unlikely to be at the Games Village during the opening ceremony.

Coronavirus Avarice and the Madness of Globalism
ON 26th March, the UK's one-time unelected Prime Minister Gordon Brown called for an unelected 'temporary' global government.
The genius who sold off Britain's gold reserves at the lowest price in
history now known in economics as 'the Brown Bottom' justified giving
this New World Order absolute power over us in light of economic
difficulties caused by the Coronavirus pandemic.
This government would be backed by the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, who would be given even more money and power and control over finances. The government would be made up of 'world leaders, health experts and the heads of international organisations.' So, the same people who showed a complete lack of leadership and lied to everyone about the dangers of Coronavirus. These are the same jokers who still cannot provide masks for the majority of people or tests for most suspected cases.

The markets are making it clearthey think Italy will be better off financially if the country’s Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, steps down. There’s a reason for that: his repeated failure to deliver on promises to reform the Italian economy.
Two reports broke this morning at 6:00am EST (noon in Italy) that Berlusconi’s demise was imminent. The markets took the reports seriously because they came from two journalists known close to the prime minister. The Italian market, which was down more than 2%, moved into positive territory by more than 2.5% percent—an intra-session move over more than 4%.
Italian yields, which were at Euro-era highs, fell back across the curve. Clearly, the market thinks Italy is better off without their billionaire leader.
Back in August, Berlusconi made a big show by forcing Parliament to work during what is normally the summer holiday to supposedly pass key reforms. That in response to pressure from Jean Claude Trichet, then head of the European Central Bank , and Mario Draghi, who was head of the Italian Central Bank. The two sent a letter to Berlusconi making clear he must pass reforms in order to receive help. The ECB kept its end of the bargain and began buying Italian debt on the secondary market to help bring down the country's interest rates. Berlusconi in the meantime, came up empty handed.

TITLE: Mapping the New Empire: Britain's General Survey of North America, 1763-1782
SPEAKER: Max Edelson
EVENT DATE: 2008/04/16
FORMAT: Video + Captions
RUNNING TIME: 75 minutes
TRANSCRIPT: View Transcript (link will open in a new window)
Britain's decisive victory in the Seven Years' War dramatically enlarged its American empire. Once confined to the coastal plain, British North America extended after 1763 from Hudson's Bay to the Florida Keys and past the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River, at least on paper. To understand these new territories and bring them under control, the Board of Trade launched the General Survey of North America. The maps and charts created by this vast cartographic project were intended as blueprints for an expansive new empire. Although the unfinished Survey collapsed during the chaos of the American Revolution, its findings were incorporated into the famed Atlantic Neptune atlas and appeared on maps issued to British commanders. Through the War for Independence and beyond, the General Survey provided a critical foundation of geographic knowledge about the continent.
Speaker Biography: Max Edelson is the Kislak Fellow in American Studies at the Library of Congress. He is also associate professor of history at the University of Illinois.

Cybercriminals have developed a blockchain analytics tool on the darknet that could help a gang launder illegally obtained bitcoin, and they are actively marketing it.
A blockchain analytics tool has been launched on the dark web, allowing bitcoin addresses to be checked for links to criminal activity. Known as Antinalysis, it allows crypto launderers to test whether their funds will be identified as proceeds of crime by regulated exchanges. Through blockchain these tools can identify whether the funds originated from a wallet associated with ransomware or any other criminal activity
The tool was created, by developers of Incognito Market, a darknet marketplace specializing in the sale of narcotics. The launch of Antinalysis likely reflects the difficulties faced by the market and its vendors in cashing out their bitcoin proceeds.
Antinalysis seeks to help crypto launderers by giving them a preview of what a blockchain analytics tool will make of their bitcoin wallet and the funds it contains and the platform runs in Tor an anonymous version of the web commonly used to host darknet markets and other illicit services.
The Business Model
It costs $3 to use the Antinalysis tool to check a single bitcoin address. For this fee, the user receives a color-coded breakdown of where the software believes the bitcoins originated and the risk associated with the transaction.
To prove the value of its tool to potential customers, the Antinalysis team compares the results it generates to those from similar, commercially available tools.Providing accurate blockchain analytics requires significant investment in technology and data collection over long periods of time.
Blockchain analytics technology and capability had been limited to use by regulated financial service providers. Now, however, individuals or companies concerned about receiving proceeds that may have been the result of a crime potentially have the ability to prescreen addresses before taking payment in bitcoin, Robinson says.

Many people will worry about something everyday. Being worried is a natural reaction that reminds us of something we need to do or a problem we need to solve. However, worrying and anxiety can become a problem when the mind becomes pre-occupied with “what-if” questions. It can disrupt work functions and social interactions. Emotional energy is spent on worrying rather than on more important functions. It is very important to live at a healthy level of worry!
Don’t try to stop worrying. Trying to just force the mind to stop thinking or worrying does not work because the mind will just focus on it more. There are many other methods for reliving anxiety. One simple trick is to tell the brain that all worries will be addressed at a later time. Perhaps at a time when you have time to relax and sort out the anxieties.
Challenge the anxiety. It is okay to ask yourself: is my worry even realistic or solvable? If you are anxious about solving world poverty, you may want to take a step back and ask yourself these questions. There is no point in worrying too much about something that is not within your control. Do not let your life be dictated by something you cannot control.
Understand uncertainty. Many people are anxious because they do not know what will happen next. That is fine because uncertain situations will surely happen on a daily basis. Instead of spending energy worrying about it, try preparing for uncertainty. For example, do not worry too much about a 50% chance of rain. Just bring an umbrella!
If the source of your anxiety or worrying is due to a past experience or if nothing seems to be working, consider counseling. Maybe you need someone to point your mind in the right direction for overcoming anxiety. Counseling can also help close any previous experiences as well. Anxiety is not a very healthy way to live. Keep the worrying to a bare minimum!

The healthcare industry has become more focused on security in recent years. The rise in breaches and the fines associated with security risks have become staggering. The value of stolen healthcare records is substantially higher than stolen financial information. Healthcare organizations are struggling to balance security restrictions with the functionality of their communication systems and the delivery of improved clinical outcomes. PeakOutcomes helps healthcare organizations identify clinical initiatives and align their communications technologies in a secure manner.
PeakOutcomes is focused on clinical communications solutions that deliver improvedpatient outcomes. The consulting firm has a team of nurses with extensive experience that helps the company focus on delivering high-qualityoutcomes for its clients. Most of Peak’s clients are hospitals and integrated health networks, or IHNs. The company also partners directly with manufacturers in the healthcare space at the corporate level to deliver integrated solutions. “We take pride in the communication technology we offer our clients,” said Herb Ricords, Peak Outcomes’ Healthcare Solutions Architect. Our nursing and staff-to-staff communication components provide real-time visibility for clinicians to see what is going on with their patients so that they can identify risks in advance.” Many vendors in the space are transitioning to new enterprise platforms, and Peak’s service offers healthcare organizations security, scalability, and availability that can’t be found anywhere else in the market.
One of the elements that differentiatesPeak is the company’s ability to record metrics and provide clients with a clear ‘before and after valuations’ from patient safety and a patient experience standpoint. For example, a healthcare organization hired PeakOutcomesbecause it was having issues with inpatient falls. Patient falls are a problem because they adversely affect the patient’s safety, the patient experience, and increase the organization’s liability.
We take pride in the communication technology we offer our clients
Peak helped the organization leverage reports and analytics, allowing them to redirect care staff for at-risk patients within the hospital. This allowed the organization to achieve a 65 percent reduction in falls. Peak’s service is customizable to the unique needs of each of its clients. Onboarding involves a meeting with Peak’s nursing and technology team, which can help the healthcare organization to understand what their technology roadmap is and what their priority initiatives are. Then, the Peakteam helps them formulate a technology implementation strategy and communication/ education plan to achieve their desired outcomes.
PeakOutcomes has built a strong reputation owing to the level of success it delivers. The company recently worked with Penn Medicine, a healthcare system in southeastern Pennsylvania, to develop and deliver on key performance indicators (KPIs), realizing significant noise reduction, an increase in the accuracy of clinical documentation, and improvement in the efficiency of caregiver communication. Peak has helped Select Medical, a specialty hospital operator with 150 hospitals across the United Statesstreamline and standardize clinical communications across their entire ecosystem.
Peak credits its nursing team for its ability to drive outcomes for clients. The nursing team works in conjunction with the company’s engineers to continually add new solutions and offerings. Peak is excited about new solutions on the horizon, and the company has partnered with Rauland-Borg a healthcare manufacturing company to develop and deploy its new enterprise platform. Peak is always looking for new opportunities to deliver outcomes for its customers, and their strong track record suggests that they’ll continue to have success in the space going forward.

A judge yesterday declined to raise the bail of a Ramona gas-station owner facing murder and arson charges.
But Superior Court Judge Herbert Exarhos did add more conditions to the existing $2 million bail for James Kurtenbach, including one allowing him to be searched without a warrant while he is free pending a trial scheduled for January.
Prosecutors had sought an unspecified increase in Kurtenbach's bail in large part because of conflicts he has had with several people in the past months, said Deputy District Attorney Fiona Khalil.
One couple, Bob and Denise Woodward, who own a fence company, have a restraining order against Kurtenbach. They said he has harassed and stalked them over a disputed business debt.
Khalil said another couple have also come forward and said they have been harassed by Kurtenbach over a debt. Exarhos ordered him to stay away from both couples as a condition for remaining free, Khalil said.
Kurtenbach, who owns Stars Petroleum gas station in Ramona, is facing charges stemming from a Halloween night explosion that destroyed a vacant rental home he owned and killed Joseph Nesheiwat, 24.
Prosecutors say Kurtenbach sent Nesheiwat, who worked for him, to burn down the house on Mount Woodson Drive so he could collect $915,000 in insurance money. Kurtenbach has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
