Kids make mistakes. That’s just how they learn. However, in our fast-paced, uber stressful lives, managing kids can be tricky. Sometimes, anger gets the best of us and we don’t treat our kids well. That could lead to inadvertent abuse towards our kids. Some of us also think that kids need a particular kind of “disciplining.” This disciplining could just be “abuse.”
What is emotional abuse? Inducing guilt and fear in children, enticing them to become angry, disrespecting them by using condescending words and actions, is emotional abuse.
Manipulating them emotionally by holding them to ransom, saying things like
“I won’t love you if you keep doing this,”
“What you did hurt papa, so you are not a good child”
“Do this again and I will beat the hell out of you,”
…are the kind of statements that propagate emotional abuse. Being screamed at is also abuse that lowers the self esteem of your child. Honestly, who likes to be yelled at? The instant reaction of adults as well, when yelled at, is anger or hurt. Such behavior is demeaning and induces self-esteem issues in kids.
Having discussed all this, let’s look at how ‘not to be’ the cause for negative emotions in our kids.
- When you want to tell your kids about a mistake that they are making, ensure that your temper is in check.
- When you are telling your kids where they went wrong, and maybe you are doing this for the umpteenth time for the same mistake, use tough love. Just do not demean them.
- When you are upset or angry with your kids, or even disappointed, do convey your feelings to them honestly. It is important for kids to learn the right and wrong from you, but remember to be respectful.
- When you think that you are losing your cool, take a step back. Remind yourself how you feel around people who scream at you, or even others. It is hurtful, annoying, and derogatory. It sends out messages like “You are useless and I don’t care about you.” So, do not resort to screaming.
- Never manipulate your kids.
It is easier to put people down and break them. The tough part is to be a loving, kind, yet tough parent who strives to fill his/her kids with confidence, good sense, and lots of self esteem. If you need specific help in achieving this for your child, post your queries here or watch our videos on Building Self Esteem in your kids.

The GB Team have been in training camps at various venues in Europe over the past few weeks in preparation for the championships which have attracted a huge entry from athletes throughout Europe.
Congratulations to both north athletes on their selection with best wishes for a successful regatta - from all at Inverness Rowing Club.

The San Francisco 49ers open their 2014 regular season against the Dallas Cowboys, and there's a chance this one could turn into a high scoring affair. The 49ers will be without NaVorro Bowman, and probably Aldon Smith. And their nose tackle role remains a question mark. On the other side, the Cowboys now see their defense dropping like flies.
Monday evening, Jerry Jones announced that cornerback Orlando Scandrick will miss the first four games due to a PED suspension. Scandrick reportedly drank a cocktail while in Mexico and it contained MDMA ("Molly"). He says it was unknowing, so believe what you want, but either way, he will miss the opener. Scandrick was slated to be one of the Cowboys two starting cornerbacks. He had two interceptions last season, and was one of five defensive players for the Cowboys with a positive grade at PFF.
This loss follows the loss of Demarcus Lawrence to a broken foot last month. Lawrence is expected to miss 8-10 weeks, which is a brutal blow to their pass rush. This followed Sean Lee's torn ACL in OTAs, which ended his season prematurely.
I do still think the 49ers can overcome the losses of Bowman and Smith, although non-49ers fans, and even some 49ers fans, will think I'm just being a homer. That being said, this game could end up a fairly high scoring affair. In spite of what some think of Tony Romo, he is still a quarterback who can put up big numbers and move that offense up and down the field. And the 49ers have done a few things to improve their offense just a little bit. With two defenses missing some key figures, you might want to take the over!

Final budget figures for the last financial year confirm that the Rann Government collected $600m more revenue than originally estimated, according to Shadow Treasurer Rob Lucas.
“The 2004-05 Final Budget Outcome released today confirms that the Rann Government is ‘awash’ with GST money and also from massive increases in property taxes and other state taxes and charges,” Mr Lucas said today.
“In fact, the Rann Government actually collected more than $2000 million extra in revenue in 2004-05 than for the last year of the Liberal Government in 2001-02.
“However, most of that extra revenue has been wasted because no one can see a $2000 million improvement in hospital waiting lists, school resources or road maintenance.
“The budget outcome confirms for the third year in a row the Rann Government underestimated the level of property tax collections. Sooner or later Mr Rann will have to concede his broken promises on property taxes are hurting thousands of South Australian workers and their families.”
For each of the last three years now the Rann Government has made significant errors in their estimates of total revenue being collected:
Original Revenue Estimate ($m) Actual Revenue Collected ($m) Error ($m)
2002-03 8818 9346 528
2003-04 9161 9955 794
2004-05 9997 10592 595
“The Rann Government is either deliberately underestimating revenue each year or there is a major problem within Treasury in terms of their capacity to estimate accurately total revenue for the year,” Mr Lucas said.
“Mr Foley’s usual humility in claiming credit for reducing the State’s debt levels is a little difficult to take seriously!
“The Auditor-General’s official figures show the former Liberal Government reduced Mr Rann and Mr Foley’s State Bank debt from $11.6b in 1993 to $3.3b in 2002.
Since then, the $3.3b debt has further reduced to $2.1b due to massive GST and property tax revenue flows.
“Mr Foley’s claim that debt is now only $144 million (not $2.1b) is misleading, as he excluded key agencies such as the South Australian Housing Trust, TransAdelaide, SA Water, Forestry SA etc!!
“The budget outcome confirms again that there is the capacity and need for further tax relief for long-suffering South Australian workers and their families.”

Tibet shut for travellers for 10-days in October
September 25, 2017 Tenzin Monlam Phayul.com
DHARAMSHALA, September 25: The so-called Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) will be closed for foreign travellers and Tibetans living outside TAR for ten days next month from October 18-28, media reports say.
Considered as a politically sensitive region, the travel ban has been placed due to the upcoming 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China later next month in Beijing.
There has been no official announcement made, however, there are reports of numerous local travel agencies in the region receiving such notification earlier in the month.
A Tibetan working at an agency in Xining, provincial capital of Qinghai Province, told Radio Free Asia that the announcement of the ban was made through phone call around 10 days ago.
“During this period, it is not just foreigners but also Tibetans living in the Amdo region of Qinghai who are not allowed to travel in the region,” the source said on condition of anonymity.
The employee at the travel agency expect the tourism market of TAR to take a huge hit due to the ban, which coincidently fall during the peak season.
The travel ban has been placed to avoid any protests during the all-important National Congress, where Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to consolidate his power, analysts say. However, according to another source high-level official meetings have been scheduled in Lhasa during the time of the ban.


PMA 2000AN IMAGING RESOURCE SPECIAL REPORT
Mystery Camera Books Room in Vegas
We now have some more info on this mystery camera we reported rumors of a while back. We should have full details plus a picture tomorrow.
- 3.3 megapixel, said to be available in February(!) * Smart Media
- Claims unusual pixel-shifting technology, "delivering a high color resolution equivalent to 6 million pixels."
- Says 100 percent of green-channel information is recorded, not interpolated.
- Also claims a "Noise Reduction Pro-Still mode, allows the GC-QX3 camera to eliminate noise and raise the signal-to-noise ratio by 18dB." Apparently a scheme that takes multiple shots, and averages them in the camera to average-out the random sensor noise.
- Dynamic Range Pro-Still. Apparently takes two exposures, one high, one low exposure, merges them to achieve a claimed tripling of the dynamic range. NOTE that all "Pro-Still" modes are intended to be used for tripod shooting on still objects (eg, NOT people), since multiple exposures of the same subject are taken.
- Very fast startup times, but we don't have an exact spec. They do cite shot-to-shot cycle times of less than one second however. (! -- That's fast!) Likewise, switches from shooting to playback in less than one second.
- 2.3x optical zoom 7.5-17.5 mm 1/1.8" CCD
- 2" 200K pixel low-temp polysilicon LCD, ~30 frames/second LCD refresh rate.

Hello everyone! First some delicious food for you and then an update on my broken wrist.
Before summer is official over, I wanted to share a couple of recipes that I prepared and photographed in early July, just before my accident. This delicious Grilled Halibut with Lemon-Caper Wine Sauce and Pasta with Kale and Walnut Pesto are company-worthy recipes but also an easy and delicious meal to make any time you can find halibut available at a reasonable price.
My husband and I were lucky enough to find halibut again in the fish case at our local market just last week. We like to grill fish on the flat side of a cast iron griddle so that we don't loose any fish that flakes apart and falls through the grates. The griddle has saved many a tasty morsel!
I don't know how I first came across the recipe for kale and walnut pesto, but it was probably one the best new recipes I tried this year. My personal twist on the recipe was adding some chopped garlic scapes from the garlic that I grew for the first time this season but you can simply add a clove of regular garlic. Thank you to Monique for the encouragement to grow garlic! I can't believe it will be time to plant garlic again next month! Time to scope out the local garlic sold at the farmers markets, which is the best to use for growing your own garlic.
Before my wrist update, I want to thank everyone for your wonderful comments on my last post when I announced that I had broken my wrist! Also, many thanks for the wonderful emails, cards and care packages! Each and every one meant so much to me.
Today, I am exactly 8 weeks post surgery! My cast came off 2 weeks post surgery and an immobilizer (slash torture device) was made for me to wear. A very stabilizing device, which is removable, but extremely difficult to accomplish. It actually hurt my hand trying to get it off.
At my 6 week post-surgery appointment, I was told that I did not have to wear an immobilizer any longer. My doctor wanted me to start using my hand and wrist and start physical therapy. I've seen my therapist several times already and have been given exercises and stretches to do to regain flexibility of my fingers and wrist. My doctor also said that I could drive again! Being able to get around on my own, even short distances, has done wonders for my mental well-being.
I do get impatient and try to do too much and then I pay the price with more swelling and discomfort. As my doctor said, I'll likely take 2 steps forward and then 1 step back for a while. I can't bear much weight with my left hand yet so I need to be cautious about what I do. I guess I shouldn't have tried doing those wall push ups last week :(
I know it's going to take patience and perseverance with the exercises/stretches to regain strength and mobility in that hand. Hopefully, in the next month, I should see more rapid improvement.
Until next time!
Grilled Halibut with Lemon-Caper Wine SaucePrintable Recipe
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel (use organic, if possible)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine (optional)
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil (divided)
2 teaspoons drained capers, coarsely chopped
4 halibut filets, about 6-8 ounces, cut from the thick end for even grilling
Whisk together lemon juice, lemon peel, olive oil, wine and garlic in small bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh basil and capers. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and let stand at room temperature until ready to use. Vinaigrette can be made 1 hour in advance.
Pat fish dry with paper toweling and brush about 1 tablespoon of the vinaigrette.
Place a cast iron griddle on top of the grill grates with flat side facing up. Heat grill with cover closed to medium-high for about 10-12 minutes. When ready to grill fish, spray griddle with non-stick cooking spray. You may also broil the fish.
Grill (or broil) halibut for about 3-1/2 minutes per side until just barely cooked through (fish will continue to cook after removing from grill. Watch carefully as halibut can become dry when cooked too long. Transfer fish to a platter and tent lightly with foil. Note: If your fish comes with skin attached, grill the skin side first and remove skin with tongs before flipping over to other side, if desired.
Whisk remaining vinaigrette and pour over fish. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon of basil and serve.

Pasta with Kale and Walnut PestoPrintable Recipe
Yield: 1 cup pesto
1/3 cup walnuts
3 cups chopped organic kale, thick stems and veins removed (you could also use arugula)
1 clove of minced garlic – or 1 tablespoon of chopped garlic scape, if available
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (divided)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound of pasta of your choice
½ cup of pasta cooking water, reserved
Toast the walnuts in a preheated 350F degree oven until lightly browned and fragrant – about 5-7 minutes. Cool completely.
In a food processor with steel blade, pulse the walnuts until finely ground.
Add the kale, garlic (or chopped garlic scapes) and 1/4 teaspoon salt and pulse until finely chopped.
Add ½ cup grated Parmesan and pulse to combine.
Slowly pour in the olive oil, pulsing to incorporate. Transfer the pesto to a bowl. This will yield about 1 cup of pesto. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Prepare pasta according to package directions. Remove ½ cup of the cooking liquid before draining.
Add cooked pasta to a large bowl and add kale pesto to taste (roughly 1/2 cup per pound of pasta).
Add additional grated Parmesan to taste and enough reserved pasta cooking water to make a creamy sauce.

Since I started working on my own software tools for music publishers, I have realized that so many people simply do not get it.
Music publishing is not in the least about the audible. It is a little bit about the data and mostly about the money.

The union Unite has called on the Tory party to come clean about 'links' to payday loan companies after Wonga recruited a senior prime ministerial advisor on digital strategy.
The appointment of Jonathan Luff, David Cameron's former digital strategy chief, as head of Wonga's government affairs team follows previous allegations of close ties between prominent payday lending industry figures and the Tory party.
“This appointment raises further serious questions about the relationship between senior Tory party figures and the legal loan sharking industry," said Len McCluskey, Unite general secretary.
The Daily Telegraph claimed this month that Conservative ministers agreed to hold meetings with Wonga in exchange for payments to the party.
Earlier in October, Wonga agreed a four-year sponsorship deal with football club Newcastle United, prompting an angry reaction from local politicians who labelled the company "irresponsible".


When most Americans think of taxes, a check made payable to the Internal Revenue Service comes to mind. But regulatory agencies can also levy various types of taxes, redistributing resources from millions of consumers to the connected few.
Fortunately, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is working to provide relief to taxpayers and gas buyers across the country by reforming the decade-old Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). This program, originally designed to bolster America’s energy dependence, has enriched a handful of oil firms at the expense of most Americans.
Under the RFS, the EPA mandates that refineries blend a set amount of ethanol into their gasoline annually. Each batch receives a digital serial number, called a Renewable Identification Number (RIN), which the government bean counts to ensure each company mixes as much as it specified. Refineries can sell credits to other companies that fall short of meeting their share of the Washington-mandated quota.
For taxpayers, there are several problems with this ethanol mixing requirement. The first of which is what’s most visible: the U.S. Department of Agriculture made available $100 million in taxpayer funds supporting the installation of ethanol fuel blender pumps.
Of course, this is not the end of the story; hidden taxes abound.
The U.S. Department of Energy has shown that biofuel mixtures containing 10-percent ethanol reduce vehicles’ fuel mileage by 3-to-4 percent due to ethanol containing less energy than gasoline. Perhaps the biggest burden on taxpayers comes from the costs that refineries are forced to either shuffle directly onto consumers’ lap or pull from cost-saving research & development funding.
Blending ethanol into gasoline is tedious and time-intensive. Many refineries refrain from the practice since the rapid degradation of ethanol mixtures poses a problem for the refineries that don’t sell gasoline directly to consumers. That’s why, typically, only the largest oil firms take part: because they can easily blend the short-lived ethanol mix at their onsite facilities right before it goes into consumers’ gasoline pumps.
This means that nearly every other refinery in the country is beholden to the largest players for RIN credits. The behemoths are well aware of this, which is why they have created a speculative marketplace for these ethanol credits, skyrocketing the price from less than ten cents to a high of close to $1.50.
For some refiners, this reality has made RINs their second-largest expenditure item after crude oil. The New York Times cautions that this system could lead “to higher prices for drivers at gasoline and diesel pumps.”
While more undoubtedly needs to be done to protect taxpayers, in the short term, President Trump’s EPA has granted hardship exemptions to small, independent refineries, as allowed under the law, to prevent them from going bankrupt while imposing downward pressure on the price of gasoline.
Yet, lawmakers driven by special interests are keen on reversing these reforms and preserving the status-quo for the enriched few.
In a letter to House Subcommittee on the Environment chairmen John Shimkus (R-Ill.) and Paul Tonko (D-N.Y.), Bob Dinneen of the Renewable Fuels Association laughably claimed that “the value of RIN credits” — artificial credits created by government force — “is primarily determined by market fundamentals.” He then went on to claim that small refinery exemptions must end because they have sharply reduced the price of RINs, and thus ethanol.
Dinneen’s interpretation of the facts is interesting. While he had no problem citing statements from the interests that benefit from the status quo and allege that refineries recoup their RINs costs, he left out ones from the small, independent refineries that are struggling.
Even a cursory look at the data makes clear that the price of RINs has little to do with ethanol demand. High RINs prices do not help farmers; they help oil and speculative interests while jeopardizing the well-being of taxpayers and the security of industrial jobs.
The notion that the Renewable Fuel Standard needs serious reform is not a controversial one; it is accepted by members of both parties and by journalists across the ideological sphere.
Instead of reversing course to please these individuals profiting handsomely from government red tape, the Trump administration should further its efforts to provide relief to its base in Middle America and across the country.

Liverpool fans hoping for an early Christmas present were treated to a very special gift from Matt Beard's side on Sunday afternoon.
Just a few hours before the men's team were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by Manchester United at Anfield, Liverpool Women were busy dispatching the Red Devils in dramatic fashion at Leigh Sports Village. On the same turf where they were beaten 6-0 not even 12 months earlier, Beard's squad turned in one of their best performances of the season to register the club's first ever Women's Super League (WSL) win over United.
It had been a nightmare start for the visitors in Greater Manchester, with England international Ella Toone firing Marc Skinner's side ahead inside three minutes. At that juncture, it would have been easy for the Liverpool players to wilt, burdened by the memories of last season's dismal defeat.
But the Reds rallied well, restoring parity through a Millie Turner own goal before captain Taylor Hinds volleyed them in front in the 68th minute. It was a tenacious display, with Liverpool's battling spirit perhaps best epitomised by the sight of a bloodied Gemma Bonner leaving the field after a heavy second-half collision with Rachel Williams.
The medical teams at both clubs should be lauded for their rapid response to the injury which meant that, while Bonner did have to be administered with some stitches, she's now well and truly on the mend. The Liverpool players, too, deserve credit for the way they soldiered on in the absence of their imperious central defender to clinch a momentous three points ahead of the WSL winter break.
"The way we grew into the game, we were worthy of the three points," Beard said after the final whistle. "It's great to keep in touch with that top four or top five - so it was an important win.
"I know on our day we can compete and I think we've proven that a few times already this season. It's great to have targets. We are an ambitious football club but we take it game by game."
Certainly, Liverpool's ambition this term has been plain to see. From making a club-record signing in striker Sophie Roman Haug to their move to the state-of-the-art AXA Melwood Training Centre, the Reds at last look to be moving in the right direction.
Sunday's win sees Beard's side move onto 18 points from 10 games - a tally that is only five points shy of their overall haul from last season. They currently boast the same number of points as United and, as it stands, are just four points off a European spot.
Of course, talk of Champions League football is still premature at present. There is still work to do to completely close the gap on the division's elite sides and Liverpool's next three WSL games - against Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur - will help define where the Reds will end up come May.
Before then though, Beard and his players will have nearly a month to reflect on what has been a hugely promising 2023. And if the win over United is anything to go by, next year might just be even better.

Plants, being sessile organisms, have developed intricate mechanisms to cope with environmental stress and adapt to the ever-changing climate conditions. As the world faces increasing challenges due to climate change, understanding how plants respond and acclimate to various stressors becomes essential in ensuring global food security and ecosystem stability.
This article delves into the diverse ways in which plants respond to environmental stress and climate change
Understanding Environmental Stress and Climate Change
Environmental stress encompasses a range of factors, including temperature extremes, water availability, soil quality, and atmospheric changes. Climate change further intensifies these stressors, leading to altered weather patterns and extreme events. The interplay of these stressors profoundly affects plant physiology and growth.
Impact of Temperature on Plant Growth
Plants have evolved sophisticated strategies to endure cold stress. They may enhance the production of antifreeze proteins, increase cell membrane stability, and accumulate compatible solutes to prevent ice formation within cells.
Heat stress poses a significant threat to plant health. In response, plants activate heat shock proteins, adjust their metabolic processes, and close stomata to reduce water loss. These mechanisms protect cells from damage and improve thermotolerance.
Water Stress and Drought Tolerance Mechanisms
Adaptations to Limited Water Supply
In arid regions, plants have evolved diverse adaptations to thrive under limited water availability. These include deep root systems, reduced leaf surface area, and the ability to enter dormancy during prolonged droughts.
Drought Tolerance Strategies
Drought-tolerant plants possess specialized structures like succulent tissues, which store water, and utilize unique metabolic pathways that minimize water loss through transpiration.
Effects of Changing Precipitation Patterns
Altered precipitation patterns due to climate change impact plant growth and distribution. Some species may face reduced growth rates and reproductive success, while others could benefit from increased precipitation in certain regions.
Soil Quality and Nutrient Availability
Nutrient Uptake and Deficiency Responses
Plants have intricate root systems that facilitate nutrient uptake from the soil. During nutrient deficiencies, they may exhibit root proliferation, mycorrhizal associations, or alter nutrient transporters to optimize uptake.
Soil pH and Plant Adaptations
Soil pH significantly influences nutrient availability. Acidic soils can induce aluminum and manganese toxicity, while alkaline soils may lead to iron and zinc deficiencies. Plants may adjust root exudates and organic acid secretion to mitigate these effects.
Impact of Elevated CO2 Levels
Higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations can boost photosynthesis in C3 plants, leading to increased biomass production. However, this effect may be limited in plants that are already well-nourished or when other resources become scarce.
Plant Responses to Extreme Weather Events
During extreme weather events like hurricanes or storms, plants may suffer physical damage or flooding. However, they can also utilize rapid growth responses and regeneration abilities to recover from such events.
The Role of Plant Hormones in Stress Responses
ABA plays a crucial role in stress responses, promoting stomatal closure, inhibiting growth, and inducing the synthesis of protective proteins.
SA is involved in the defense against biotic stress and can induce systemic acquired resistance, providing protection against pathogens.
JA regulates responses to mechanical damage and herbivore attacks, stimulating the synthesis of defensive compounds.
Epigenetic Changes in Response to Stress
Epigenetic modifications can mediate stress responses by influencing gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. These changes can be heritable and play a crucial role in plant adaptation.
Genetic Engineering for Stress Tolerance
Scientists have explored genetic engineering to enhance stress tolerance in crops. This approach involves introducing specific genes that improve stress-related traits, such as drought resistance or heat tolerance.
Symbiotic Relationships and Stress Mitigation
Plants form symbiotic associations with beneficial microorganisms like mycorrhizal fungi and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. These relationships aid in nutrient acquisition and enhance stress tolerance.
Biodiversity and Climate Change Adaptation
Biodiversity is vital for ecosystem resilience in the face of climate change. Diverse plant communities offer a range of responses and adaptations to environmental stress, bolstering ecosystem stability.
Sustainable Agriculture and Climate Resilience
Implementing sustainable agricultural practices can contribute to climate resilience. Techniques like crop rotation, cover cropping, and reduced tillage improve soil health and water management, enhancing crop resilience.
Plant responses to environmental stress and climate change are diverse and multifaceted. As the world faces unprecedented environmental challenges, understanding these mechanisms becomes critical for developing strategies to ensure food security and environmental sustainability. By fostering biodiversity, utilizing sustainable agriculture, and exploring biotechnological advancements, humanity can work alongside nature to navigate the changing climate successfully.
Q: How do plants survive extreme cold temperatures?
A: Plants use antifreeze proteins and accumulate compatible solutes to prevent ice formation within cells during cold stress.
Q: Can plants adapt to limited water availability?
A: Yes, plants exhibit adaptations like deep root systems and reduced leaf surface area to thrive under limited water supply.
Q: What are the effects of changing precipitation patterns on plants?
A: Altered precipitation patterns can impact plant growth rates and distribution, leading to varied responses among species.
Q: How do plants respond to elevated CO2 levels?
A: Plants may exhibit increased photosynthesis, leading to enhanced biomass production, but the response varies based on nutrient availability.

To quote the always-astute Gretchen Wieners: That is so fetch!
The burn book will be reopened today at 2 and 9 p.m., and in honor of the showing, MTV News dug through the archives to unearth some mid-aughts interviews with the film's stars, in which they reflected on their own high school experiences.
"In high school, I was a floater," Lohan remembered. "I mean, I played basketball, and I played soccer, and I did tennis, and I also did cheerleading. So it was like I kind of did everything, and I was involved in art, so I kind of did a mixture of everything, and I made a point to get along with everyone, so I didn't have to deal with the drama in one specific clique."
Co-star Lacey Chabert, on the other hand, had a much different adolescent experience, as she grew up on the set of the family drama "Party of Five."
"I didn't actually go to high school in the traditional way; I was tutored on set while I was working," she recalled. "But amongst my group of friends, I guess I was kind of serious. I probably would have been the drama girl."
From the sounds of it, Chabert and McAdams would have gotten along well, as they shared a similar sensibility.
"In high school, I was very serious as well," McAdams said. "[I] wasn't quite sure where I fit in and really didn't find a place, but I did sports and drama."
Like Chabert, Seyfried was a working actress during her teens, appearing on the soaps "As the World Turns" and, later, "All My Children," but she was involved enough to experience the usual teen trappings.
"I think by the time high school was over, I was kind of on set," she said. "I was in a clique of girls, and I became the torn bystander, I'd say, I think just because I wasn't around all the drama. I didn't get caught up. No one got mad at me."
Despite being the furthest removed from high school, star and screenwriter Tina Fey had some of the most vivid and visceral recollections of her time carrying a binder and eating in the cafeteria.
"When I was in high school, I was pretty much an AP student and just kind of a dork," she said. "I was in choir and on the school paper, and I never drank, and I never smoked, and I was like, 'People who drink are stupid!' I was just a real goody two-shoes."
Though Fey did admit to a darker side, one that likely influenced her film's edgy tone. "I was also kind of a jealous girl and mean," she admitted. "If I liked a guy and he liked some other girl, I'd be unbelievably mean about that girl. I would just talk to my friends about her for hours and hours and say bad stuff about her. I really wasted a lot of my time doing that."
"You're plastic. Cold, shiny, hard plastic." Grab the microwave popcorn and tune in to MTV today at 2 p.m. and 9 p.m. when we air Lindsay Lohan's mid-aughts classic "Mean Girls"!

Summary: Crypto correlation data following Trump’s Bitcoin comments and the Facebook Libra hearings suggest that the market at large still cares more about Bitcoin than altcoins — and that it may no longer be accurate to classify Ethereum as an “altcoin.”
The cryptocurrency that may not be a cryptocurrency has put Bitcoin back in mainstream media over the past few weeks — and coin relationships within the crypto sector have shifted dramatically.
Capitol Hill has been abuzz over Facebook’s crypto initiative, Project Libra, which aims to provide billions of people worldwide with access to a cryptographically secured currency managed by a consortium of industry giants such as Uber, Booking.com, and Visa.
On July 11th, five days ahead of scheduled Senate and House hearings on Libra, President Trump felt compelled to issue a Presidential tweet about Bitcoin and Libra:
The hearings on July 16th and 17th didn’t just analyze Libra on its own terms: lawmakers also demonstrated acumen in differentiating Libra from Bitcoin. In her expert testimony before the U.S. House Financial Services Committee, CoinShares CSO Meltem Demirors repeatedly emphasized her view that Libra isn’t a cryptocurrency at all:
What [Facebook] is attempting to do is not to create a new payment system: what they’re attempting to do is to pass off this idea as a cryptocurrency, which it is not. They’re attempting to use regulatory cover to get away with doing something that would typically be regulated, which is asset management. It’s fundamentally different [than Bitcoin].
This corresponded with a curious market situation: despite not being the direct focus of lawmakers’ attention, Bitcoin became more volatile and more dominant in the overall crypto market.
The price to buy bitcoin has fallen somewhat consistently since the start of the U.S. government’s scrutiny of Libra, from $12483.97 on July 10th (before Trump’s tweet) to $9543.13 on July 17th (the day of Libra’s congressional hearings) — a decrease of almost 24%.
In the same timeframe, the volatility of bitcoin steadily increased, from 89.33% on July 10th to 100.30% on July 17th — the first time Bitcoin’s 30-day historical volatility has surpassed 100% since March 6th, 2018.
One possible explanation for this combination of downward trend in bitcoin’s price and upward trend in bitcoin’s volatility is that the market doesn’t fully understand what implications the increased government scrutiny towards a private blockchain and cryptocurrency (i.e. Libra) may have for public blockchains and cryptocurrencies (e.g., Bitcoin). This kind of uncertainty is understandable given the wide range of Bitcoin-related comments surrounding Libra: on the one hand, the President of the United States has denied that bitcoin is money and has said that he is “not a fan” of it; on the other hand, Congressman Patrick McHenry (R-Nc.) called Bitcoin “an unstoppable force” which Congress should not attempt to deter.
The latest crypto correlation data collected by the SFOX research team reinforces that Bitcoin has occupied center stage in the crypto sector amidst this Libra scrutiny: leading altcoins — ether (ETH), bitcoin cash (BCH), litecoin (LTC), bitcoin SV (BSV), and ethereum classic (ETC) — were all less correlated to BTC than they have been in recent months, whereas they were all highly correlated to each other.
Longitudinal correlation data from July 1st through July 22nd show a pattern of BTC:altcoin correlations dipping throughout the middle of the month, with all correlations converging towards mid-positive values at present. (Note that the BTC:ETH correlation has settled at a more positive value than other BTC:altcoin correlations: 0.788 vs. ~0.6.)
These correlation data reinforce the idea that investors and traders may still be much more attuned and responsive to Bitcoin rather than other altcoins, especially when the crypto sector enters the national regulatory spotlight. This may also, to an extent, be a self-fulfilling prophecy: some investors and traders may believe that regulators will address and clarify laws specifically surrounding Bitcoin before they turn their attention to crypto as a whole, and may therefore be focusing more on Bitcoin than altcoins as such regulatory discussions take place.
We’ve also seen this “dominance” of Bitcoin reflected in the percentage of crypto’s total market cap that Bitcoin controls, which has climbed from roughly 50% in March to between 65% and 75% today, depending on data source:
While many sources have noted the increase in Bitcoin’s market dominance, few have observed the fact that BTC’s current correlation with ether (ETH) is markedly higher than its correlations with other altcoins, and has been so throughout the month of July. This may support the idea that Ethereum is coming into its own as a blockchain that is publicly recognized as an asset on its own terms, much like Bitcoin. If this trend continues, it may become inappropriate to categorize Ethereum as an “altcoin” on a par with other cryptoassets that are not Bitcoin.
As the crypto sector continues to evolve and further garner public attention, it stands to reason that prominent projects besides Bitcoin will come to be understood and evaluated on their own terms. It’s possible that, with Ethereum, we may be seeing the beginning of that next stage in crypto.

A once-thriving all-black settlement in the New Mexico desert is a ghost town that rarely appears on maps. Tour buses pass but never stop at a Houston building where Latino activists planned civil rights events. Motels that welcomed minority motorists along 1950s Route 66 sit abandoned.
From a Civil War battlefield where Hispanic Union soldiers fought to birthplaces of civil rights leaders, sites linked to the nation’s struggle for racial equality are overlooked, neglected and absent from travel guides.
Some states like Alabama, once known for discrimination and violence, are making strides to preserve historic sites. Advocates say it’s time that more states and local communities work to draw attention to the sites before they are lost forever to memory and time.
The efforts come amid a demographic shift that indicates the U.S. population will be majority-minority by mid-century, highlighting a need to cover all history.
“I think generally we need to be more inclusive,” said Rita Powdrell, president of the African American Museum & Cultural Center of New Mexico. “There are a lot of sites that should be recognized and remembered because they tell our story.”
In Albuquerque, for example, there are no detectable markers for black civil rights advocate and 1950 Nobel Peace Prize Ralph Bunche, who attended school in the city. There also are no historic makers for David C. Marcus, an Albuquerque High School graduate who represented Latinos in landmark desegregation cases in California, including Mendez v. Westminster that challenged Orange County’s segregated school system.
Though funds are limited, efforts are underway to save some sites.
In Houston, a nonprofit recently formed to restore a building that served as a meeting place for Latino civil rights groups during the 1950s, said Ray Valdez, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens’ LULAC Council 60.
It was there that Gus Garcia and other legendary lawyers met to map out desegregation cases, and John J. Herrera planned the historic meeting with President John F. Kennedy the night before his assassination.
“Previous LULAC leaders left it in bad shape,” Valdez said. “They hadn’t paid property taxes on it for several years. They hadn’t kept maintenance on it for several years.”
The nonprofit hopes to use the building as a community center and museum on Mexican-American history, Valdez said.
Not all states and cities are letting time bury memories of their civil rights sites. In Alabama, for example, tourism officials invite visitors to experience such places as the University of Alabama’s Foster Auditorium, where Gov. George Wallace stood at the entrance to prevent two black students from entering. The students were later allowed to enroll after President Kennedy placed the Alabama National Guide under federal control.
In nearby Birmingham, the city promotes a civil rights heritage trail. Visitors can see more than 70 sites of national merit designated by the National Register of Historic Places in Birmingham’s Civil Rights District. Among those sites are the 16th Street Baptist Church, where four young black girls were killed in a church bombing. Statues of civil rights marchers are at locations of critical demonstrations.
In Oakland, California, there are markers around the city to highlight locations connected to the Black Panther Party of the late 1960s.
And also in Albuquerque, city officials are working on a revitalization plan for the De Anza Motor Lodge. The empty and fenced off building was one of the motels that offered lodging to black and Hispanic travelers along the famed Route 66 from Chicago to Los Angeles during segregation.
New Mexico’s Tourism Department also promotes the state’s Hispanic and Native American heritage, encouraging visitors to take a trip to Taos Pueblo or Santa Fe Plaza. But little is done to promote Blackdom, the all-black frontier ghost town that some advocates say could be turned into a tourism attraction.
The state also doesn’t have a marker in the northern New Mexico ghost town of Dawson, the birthplace of United Farm Workers co-founder Dolores Huerta. Recently, the Albuquerque Public Schools named a school after pioneer Latino scholar George I. Sanchez, who was born in the city.
New Mexico Office of African American Affairs executive director Yvette Kaufman-Bell said it will take a community effort to bring attention to these sites, including creating simple informative, tourist brochures. “It’s up to us to tell our own history,” she said.

CONSUMERS are being warned to take care when ordering products online.
Kim Shanab, 51, from Lytham Road, South Shore, and her daughter, Lailla, 32, who now lives in Qatar, ordered a hamper from ihamper.com in December, and are still waiting for their delivery.
The Burnley-based company has already taken the money for the luxury Christmas hamper, leaving the mother and daughter frustrated.
Mrs Shanab, who runs a newsagent on Lytham Road, said: “It infuriates me that she spent so much money.
“If she had spent £20 we would have put it down to experience and moved on, but this is a lot of money.
“Some of our family were left without a Christmas present.
“I’ve called them, my daughter has called them and they haven’t got back to me.”
The family contacted Trading Standards to try and get their money back, but were told they were unable to get a refund because the purchase was made from Miss Shanab’s home in Qatar.
Mrs Shanab added: “It looks like we can’t do anything about it because my daughter lives in Qatar.
“She bought it outside of this country and I can’t believe they are going to get away with it.”
Miss Shanab, a headteacher at a school in Qatar, added: “I contacted ihampers five times via email, online help and telephone to request a refund.
“I was told on each of these occasions that the refund would show in my account within three to five working days.
“It’s very frustrating, particularly as I live abroad and am not even based in the UK.”
Blackpool Council Trading Standards team have today issued advice to consumers who are ordering goods online.
Catriona Bright, public protection officer at Trading Standards, said: “When paying online ensure the payment page is encrypted. Look out for the “padlock” used by web browsers to indicate this is the case.
“Unless you’ve agreed otherwise, the supplier must send the goods or carry out the service no more than 30 days after your initial order.
“If they can’t, they must offer you another date, send you something else or give you your money back.”
For more information about online shopping rights contact Blackpool’s Trading Standards Consumer Advice section on (01253) 478375.

Chocolate Caramel Shortbread Bars are the grown up version of a HOMEMADE TWIX, and I will go on record saying they are infinity times better than the store bought candy bar. A buttery shortbread base is layered with a creamy, rich caramel, all topped with milk chocolate and some flaked sea salt for good measure!
There are just some flavor combinations out there that BELONG together. Of course you have peanut butter and chocolate…honey and bbq…cinnamon and apple…chocolate and mint…AND AND AND…
But I am here to say that caramel and shortbread is holy grail status. I made my mark on the internet many years ago with my Salted Caramel Butter Bars. They are an OG Cookies and Cups recipe, and have been made across the internets by so so many of you. Everyone love them, as everyone should. They’re freaking amazing.
Which brings me to today’s recipe. It’s one that I have intended to make (and share) here for a long time. I am sure there are many versions of this recipe out there on the google, but this is the recipe I make and love, and since we’re friends, I think you will love it too.
These Chocolate Caramel Shortbread Bars (aka Homemade Twix) are the perfect portions of each layer/flavor. The crust is has the exact right amount of crunch, the caramel is creamy and soft, without oozing everywhere, and well, milk chocolate topped with flaked sea salt is a winning combo.
The crust can be baked ahead of time…or not. It’s all about versatility here. The caramel is sweet and buttery, and the addition of sweetened condensed milk makes it the perfect texture.
And like I said…milk chocolate…
Spread that gorgeous chocolate all over the top and go ahead and sprinkle on some flaked sea salt to make everything better.
Allow them to set up completely….you can chill them or let this happen at room temperature. Totally up to you…like I said, versatility.
Be prepared to be BLOWN AWAY with how delicious these are.
You can cut them into small pieces for a bite-sized treat or into bars like a Twix!Print

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Supreme Court leaves behind a decision rejecting the challenge of environmental groups for parts of the wall that the Trump administration is building on the U.S. border with Mexico.
The Supreme Court declined to appeal on Monday with the construction of 145 miles (233 kilometers) of steel bollard walls along the border in Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas.
The Center for Biological Diversity, the Animal Legal Defense Fund, Defenders of Wildlife and the Southwest Environmental Center had challenged a federal law allowing the Secretary of Homeland Security to waive all laws necessary to allow rapid construction of boundary fencing to make. The groups had argued that this is contrary to the separation of powers from the Constitution. However, a lower court dismissed the case.
This is not the first time that the Supreme Court has addressed the construction of boundary walls during the Trump administration. Last year, the Supreme Court gave the administration the go-ahead to tap into billions of dollars in Pentagon funds to replace barriers along the Mexican border in Arizona, California and New Mexico with more robust fencing.

Question about Cars & Trucks
I would say you have a failed wheel bearing
or brake problem
I doubt you have a strut issues
Maybe ball joint, but if a tire was involved it wouldn't
last long & you would be under there checking all
around the tire,correct,you have ruled out the tire have you not?

SOURCE: strut mounting kit
I just did that a few weeks agon on my daughter's 2004 Stratus Sedan. Same passenger side rear! The original factory part was **** and fell to pieces. The new parts are greatly improved. Buy two (2) because you will need one for the other side in the near future.
You will need a coil spring compressor for this job, some metric wrenches/sockets, and something to hold the top stud of the Strut when you loosen the nuts. I think the nuts inside the trunk are 15 mm and the big one at the bottom of the strut is 18 mm.
Check out moparpartsamerica.com/schematics/p/pm01495.gif for a great exploded view of the entire strut top to bottom. Go to the Auto Zone Web site and look up your struts and print the inspection and repair/replacement topics. Check the strut closely before you decide to put it back in, particularly if they have a lot of miles on them. I plan to replace all four struts next summer on my daughter's car.
I reused the old strut, but you need to decide if it is a good time to put new struts on for yourself. This would be a great time to do it if you need them. Look closely at the rubber bushings at the top of the strut and buy a new set if they are not really solid. I bought new ones when I did it.
Start inside the trunk by pulling back the trunk liner to expose the top of the strut and mounting bolts for the broken bracket. Spray all the nuts/bolts at top and bottom of the strut with liquid wrench a few times. Remove the two (2) outside nuts first. You will need a special socket to hold the end of the strut stud while you turn the nut off. I used a big pair of Vice Grips on the flats, but use the socket if you can get one.
That big bolt & nut that attaches the bottom of the strut will take some effort to remove. Use the coil spring compressor to take the load off that bolt before you try to remove it. The suspension component to the left of that bolt will need to be unbolted and lowered for the strut bolt to be removed. Good Luck!

struts frozen or not will not control how close the tires are to the strut. The tire and lower portion of the strut move of one. The compresson/rebound point is about the strut base

Okay....here is the steps first....and then the directions on how to use the tools:
Posted on May 13, 2009
problem is with over inflating the tires,causing middle tread wear,as long as you have more the 3/32 tread wear in the middle than you are ok.always set tire pressure when cold at around 33psi,check tire inflation sticker on dar jam for exact tire pressure

The E-brake is stuck on. Rock it back and forth from Drive to Reverse and it should free up. You really should get the brakes checked too.

Continuous (or cardiac) arrhythmia by atrial fibrillation is an anomaly in the cardiac rhythm characterized by irregular contractions of the heart's ventricles. The cardiac rhythm is generally situated between 120 and 200 (tachycardia). It can be permanent, but it can also occur as an attack, can be felt by the person through palpitations, and can disappear suddenly. Its identification is made by recording the heart, or by electrocardiogram which is sometimes performed during a 24-hour period: this is the Holter ECG. The goal of the treatment is two-fold: fight against the major complication of the continuous arrhythmia, thin out the blood, and reduce the frequency of the heartbeats with medication or sometimes with electric shock.

BIKER ROMANCE LOVERS REJOICE!!! KATHY IS LOVING this series, and it just had a new release she’s excited about, so I thought I’d post it for everyone that’s into Biker Romance (that haven’t read it yet) could play. 😉
Kathy: I found a new MC series by a new author, Lola Wright. The first book is the Devil’s Angel’s MC Book 1. I enjoyed it so much, I ended up reading the second book on the same day (husband and son were gone all weekend at golf) so I got some reading in:) They are both free on KU.


I first read about the Boom Box on eGadget.
“Two blocks can power the average high-consumption American home — one block can power the average European home. At least that’s the claim being made by K.R. Sridhar, founder of Bloom Energy, on 60 Minutes last night. The original technology comes from an oxygen generator meant for a scrapped NASA Mars program that’s been converted, with the help of an estimated $400 million in private funding, into a fuel cell. Bloom’s design feeds oxygen into one side of a cell while fuel (natural gas, bio gas from landfill waste, solar, etc) is supplied to the other side to provide the chemical reaction required for power. The cells themselves are inexpensive ceramic disks painted with a secret green “ink” on one side and a black “ink” on the other. The disks are separated by a cheap metal alloy, instead of more precious metals like platinum, and stacked into a cube of varying capabilities — a stack of 64 can power a small business like Starbucks.”
This does seem to bonafide… and we will be watching this space.
There are some parallels betten this and Daniel Nocera’s work at MIT, although they are two distint system.
It looks more an more likely each day that we will soon be living a cleaner world. The big questions is, how do the big energy suppliers meter these progressive energy sources???


The Chairman thanked those Officers in attendance and explained to Members that this item would begin in public session, but it was highlighted that should they wish to discussion the financial implications in detail then the Board would need to consider whether it was appropriate to go into private session.
The Chief Executive presented the report which provided Members with an update of the current position regarding the site and the funding application submitted to Homes England. The report also set out the conditions attached to the offer and the officers’ suggested preferred option for the site.
The Portfolio Holder for Planning and Strategic Housing advised Members that the report was a live document and that he believed that the proposal set out in option 3 – Housing Company was the best option for the Council as it would help balance out some of the current housing problems in Bromsgrove.
The Strategic Housing Manager provided background information and outlined the key issues whilst reminding Members that at the Cabinet meeting on 6th September 2017 the options available to the Council regarding developing the site at Burcot Lane had been considered. Three options had been proposed with the pros and cons of each being included within the report. The preferred option was that of establishing a housing company to manage the retained housing stock, subject to the business case for this being brought to Cabinet for approval in due course. The Strategic Housing Manager also provided Members with details of the indicative plans for the site together with the breakdown of proposed properties.
The Strategic Housing Manager also highlighted the following:
It was highlighted that the Local Housing Market currently had approximately 39k properties of which 32,000 were private, 4,000 social housing and 3,000 private rented properties. The Strategic Housing Manager also stated that it was important to explore other models to enable the Council to develop rental properties and understand the market. It was further stated that option 3 identified the model which achieved the most properties for rent and kept outright sales down to a minimum.
Members questioned the viability test and if there was any risks attached to the proposed scheme and what confidence the Council had in this test. It was clarified that a considerable amount of work had been undertaken and it was believed that the scheme was viable and would return a surplus to the Council. In response to a Member question, clarity was sought that a right to buy option was not available in the option 3 model.
Members discussed the reintroduction of a Housing Revenue Account (HRA) and the Leader confirmed that this was not a realistic option and that the introduction of a Housing Company would go some way to addressing the lack of housing that was affordable in the District..
Members questioned whether the option that was proposed within the report was that which had been made in the initial decision. Officers highlighted that the options set out in appendix 4 to the report were not in the correct order and a revised appendix was circulated at the meeting. Clarity was given that option 3 was the Housing Company and option 2 was a partnership with a Registered Provider.
In response to a Member question, the Strategic Housing Manager informed the Board that Homes England had stated in the conditions attached to the grant that it should be spent by March 2021. It was anticipated that the development would commence prior to this date pending Cabinet approval.
The Portfolio Holder for Planning and Strategic Housing confirmed that highways issues had been considered and as the Burcot Site had an existing building on it, that there should be no issues with additional highways reports. However, should the current building be demolished prior to planning permission being sought then this may impact on the highways considerations.
Members were provided with full details in respect of the costs associated with the redevelopment of the site. Officers then responded to a number of questions from Members, which covered the following areas:
· Areas to be covered by the maintenance costs.
· The Council would look to reduce the surplus cost;
· The rent would be increased by 1%.
· The role of the Shareholders Committee and the involvement of Members, in order to ensure that they had an insight into the operation of the Housing Company.
· How it was anticipated that the Housing Company would set the rent for the properties.
· How the rental figures had been calculated – it was highlighted that in the first instance a comparative figure for Redditch had been used.
· It was clarified that the properties would be available for the local people in Bromsgrove.
· The Council would look at other sites within the District for future developments once the Burcot Lane site had been established; however it confirmed that it was difficult to identify other areas at this early stage.
· Members expressed their concerns that the project was not sustainably for the Council without multiple sites being identified, as the current development for 61 properties was not sufficient. Members were advised that this was the first step and there was the potential for the project to be successful in the long term. In addition it was confirmed that the current proposals were viable as a stand alone site.
· The Board was informed that other local authorities had had a significant impact on the local market and that local businesses had also benefited from similar developments.
· Members expressed concerns that this project had not been considered in enough detail.
· It was important that long term investment was considered within this project.
· It was suggested that a Committee should be set up to look at the housing needs for Bromsgrove and to ensure that the Housing Company met these needs.
Councillor H. Jones supported the recommendations set out in the report and proposed that the matter be put to the vote without further debate.
On being put to the vote the proposal was lost.
Further debate followed, which included the discussion of a number of areas, including:
· Members suggested that a letting agency be considered as an option, it was noted that this had been a recommendation from an Overview and Scrutiny Task Group investigation previously. The Board was informed that currently there were 50 letting agencies in Bromsgrove and that Council would explore this option in the future.
· Members were informed that Homes England ad been satisfied that the Council’s application met the necessary criteria.
· The Council was aware of a number of potential sites, although further investigation was required before consideration being given to them.
· Members reiterated the view that the Cabinet should consider exploring working with letting agencies or setting up its own.
· Members suggested that there was a need for a longer term strategic plan to be developed and brought back to the Board for further scrutiny.
· Members expressed concerns that it was unclear as to how this project would be sustainable and requested further clarification in order to understand the longer term implications.
The Portfolio Holder for Planning and Strategic Housing invited Members of the Board to the Cabinet meeting due to take place on Wednesday 31st October, 2018 when the matter would be considered. He also requested that, should Members have any further questions that they email him prior to that meeting.
The Leader informed Members that a business plan of the Housing Company would be shared with the Board at an early stage. The Board was further informed that the scrutiny of the Housing Company would be reviewed by the Finance and Budget Working Group.
a) that further work be carried out to explore the options available to the housing company to allow it to act as a letting agent; and
b) that the housing company’s overarching principle be to provide “affordable” rental accommodation for local people.
(During consideration of this item Members discussed matters that necessitated the disclosure of exempt information. It was therefore agreed to exclude the press and public prior to any debate on the grounds that information would be revealed relating to financial and business affairs. However, there is nothing exempt in this record of the proceedings.)

Alanine scanning mutagenesis identifies an asparagine-arginine-lysine triad essential to assembly of the shell of the Pdu microcompartment.
Publication Type:Journal Article
Source:J Mol Biol, Volume 426, Issue 12, p.2328-45 (2014)
Keywords:Alanine, Amino Acid Sequence, Asparagine, Bacterial Proteins, Crystallography, X-Ray, Dipeptides, DNA Mutational Analysis, Microscopy, Electron, Transmission, Models, Molecular, Molecular Sequence Data, Mutagenesis, Site-Directed, Mutant Proteins, Mutation, Missense, Protein Conformation, Protein Multimerization, Salmonella typhimurium

Bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) are the simplest organelles known. They function to enhance metabolic pathways by confining several related enzymes inside an all-protein envelope called the shell. In this study, we investigated the factors that govern MCP assembly by performing scanning mutagenesis on the surface residues of PduA, a major shell protein of the MCP used for 1,2-propanediol degradation. Biochemical, genetic, and structural analysis of 20 mutants allowed us to determine that PduA K26, N29, and R79 are crucial residues that stabilize the shell of the 1,2-propanediol MCP. In addition, we identify two PduA mutants (K37A and K55A) that impair MCP function most likely by altering the permeability of its protein shell. These are the first studies to examine the phenotypic effects of shell protein structural mutations in an MCP system. The findings reported here may be applicable to engineering protein containers with improved stability for biotechnology applications.

Pop quiz, hot shot: your manager just retired following a World Series win. He was the most experienced and successful and savvy guy to manage a major league baseball team in decades. You need someone to follow that act, somehow. Who do you hire? WHO DO YOU HIRE?!
Why, you hire a guy with absolutely no experience whatsoever.
Well, at least no managerial experience. Matheny did play 13 years in the bigs with four teams, five in St. Louis. During that entire time, there were people saying that he was managerial material. They say that about a lot of catchers, but they always seemed to say it more about Matheny than anyone.
Also in his favor: he’s not just coming into the organization cold. He’s worked with the Cardinals for a while now, doing some minor league instruction. According Ken Rosenthal’s report yesterday — in which he really disliked the idea of Matheny getting the job — he has forged a strong relationship with Dave Duncan. That’s pretty big considering that it probably means that Duncan is not going anyplace, which may not have been the case if a different manager was hired. It will also give him some added credibility.
All of that said, yeah. No managerial experience. Not even any high-level coaching experience. He’ll command respect because he always has, but there is not a long list of successful managers who came in this green.
With Matheny, and with Robin Ventura with the White Sox, we’ll see if that trend can change.

Hi, I currently have a Single shot Winchester 101 shotgun and i would like to get the double barrel for it. I do not need the whole gun just the barrels. any advice of where i can find this? I know i need a gunsmith to fit them but from what I understand it is not very difficult to do.
thanks for any help.
November 7, 2015
Is this a shotgun that was fitted with a single barrel for trap shooting? Sounds like the double barrel set may have been misplaced or badly damaged and discarded.

I found DJ aka Devon Montgomery Johnston the Third and he turn on his music so his female human dancers will perform and entertain both cars and humans for a dance party. They let me in to join the other kids and teenagers for a fun party dance and dance along with DJ's female background dancers. It was a great rock and roll dance party in Radiator Springs city square.
This is DJ's Dance 'n' Drive Dance Show.

I am always looking for fun ways to incorporate our family values and how to preserve their 'littleness'. This is a little craft I did this past week with the kids. It is a little hard to keep the 2 year olds still enough to get a good print, but totally worth it.
DISCLAMER: Once the kids realize they can paint their hands or feet with paint, their entire bodies will be covered! They had a blast painting themselves while I finished up writing in the words. I wish I had taken a picture of the kids when they were done painting themselves.
Now that we decided not to try and sell the house, I am planning on putting up pictures and scripture in the house. Can't wait to see how the rest turns out. What fun things have you done with your little ones this summer?


CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina PG Kendall Marshall is out of his cast after surgery on his broken right wrist.
In a text message to the Associated Press on Wednesday, Marshall's father Dennis said his son is wearing a removable splint now. Marshall said on Twitter he had shed the cast that afternoon.
Dennis Marshall said it was too early to know if his son could play against Ohio on Friday in the NCAA Tournament's Sweet 16 in St. Louis. He said his son "hasn't been ruled out, but not cleared to play either."
The school had no update on Marshall's status Wednesday.
The left-handed Marshall was hurt when he was fouled on a drive against Creighton and had surgery Monday to install a screw in the wrist.
Marshall is averaging about eight points and 10 assists for the top-seeded Tar Heels (31-5) in the Midwest Region. He has scored in double figures for six straight games and has been at the helm of UNC's fast-paced attack.
If he can't play, freshman Stilman White or versatile senior Justin Watts would handle the point guard duties.
BRAND NEW IMAGE: With its surprising advance into the Sweet 16, Ohio University has something to talk about other than parties and potatoes.
Ohio, which is known regionally for its annual Halloween party, was ranked the top party school in the country by the 2011 Princeton Review last summer, an annoyance to administrators who have been trying to change that image.
"Honestly, I don't know where that party thing comes from," former Bobcats star Gary Trent said. "I've been on other college campuses. It's no more wild than any other."
The football program got its first bowl victory in December, beating Utah State 24-23 in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl with a touchdown drive in the last two minutes.
CONFERENCE QUIPS: Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim isn't a big fan of all the conference realignment going on.
The Big East is loaded with teams, 16 that play basketball. And that makes Orange F Kris Joseph's first-team all-conference selection more impressive.
"There's 26 or 28 teams, whatever it is, in our conference," Boeheim said, "so you've got to be real good to get in the first five or six. He's had a tremendous year. He's had a tremendous career at Syracuse."
Future stars for the Orange should have a shot at winning ACC honors. Syracuse and Pittsburgh are slated to leave the Big East for the ACC.
IN THE BOOTH: VCU coach Shaka Smart and Kansas State's Frank Martin will serve as guest analysts this week. CBS and Turner Sports said that Smart will join the Atlanta studio group for the region semifinals and finals today through Saturday on CBS and TBS. Martin will work with the New York studio for the region finals Saturday and Sunday on CBS.

Q: My sister lost her husband and she has two kids viz 7 ear old son and 11 year daughter. The husband left behind his business and two buildings; one residential and one commercial where the business is running. However, these two buildings have been orally given to him by his father. There is no written proof of transfer. The father of the deceased is alive and has huge property. He has another son who has some psychological problem hence unable to make any decision.
We have temporarily transferred the business in the name of the children under the guardianship of the mother so that no one can cause any harm to the business.
My question is how will the law of inheritance apply in this case?
Father will receive 12 shares
Wife will receive 9 shares
Son will receive 34 shares
Daughter will receive 17 shares
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
