Iron Man 2 (2010)
A Fun Way To Kickoff The Summer
Tony Stark, is back in this high-octane, high action summer blockbuster. The film picks up right where the first one left off, where Stark reveals that he is Iron Man. We are introduced to a new villain named Whiplash played by Mickey Rourke. We soon find out that he and Mr. Stark have much in common with their past. Meanwhile Jimmy Rhodes, played wonderfully by Don Cheadle, must deal with the government and Stark's crazy antics. This is just a reader's digest version of the story, I want to talk about the film itself. This film is the first of this summer's blockbusters. This film is bigger, louder and more action packed than it's predecessor, which not necessarily a bad thing. With the addition of Sam Rockwell and Scarlett Johansson really brings a "freshness" to the story. Director Jon Favreau has done another fantastic job, proving that he is a first rate action director. The characters are great, Paltrow gives a great supporting performance, Downey is funny and series as ever, and Rourke is a force to be reckoned with. The visual affects are very good along with solid sound editing, however, I do feel that Johansson and Sam L. Jackson, where a but underutilized. I really enjoyed this film, but I was hoping to see more from these characters. That's what sequels are for. I do like this film, but it did lack in some parts where the first one succeeded. I do love the special affects, but they could have been better. Unfortunately with the passing of special affects wizard, Stan Winston, who worked on the first film, it did loose a little luster but not much. Overall I was a satisfied as a moviegoer and a future film maker, I would definitely go see this film again. It is worth your money, but unfortunately, it will probably be overshadowed by the mind-numbing, horribly acted, D rated special affects, crapfest known as "Twilight". But hey, that is my opinion, and I'm sure people have other opinions, and that's OK.
This Is It (2009)
An Experience to Remember. Forever.
Wow! That is one of the few words I was able to speak after I saw this film. I went to see this film the last week it was in theaters, and I really regretted that I didn't go sooner, so that I could see it more in theaters. I am not really a fan of concert films or documentaries, but this film really broke down that wall for me. Michael Jackson is mesmerizing in his final performance on stage. Watching this film, you can really see Michael's passion for perfection, and for his fans. After watching this film, you can tell that he truly cared about his fans and he wanted to give them the best show ever. The lights, the dance choreography, the special effects! It truly is unlike everything I had ever seen before in my life. He takes you away from your world and puts you into his world. It is a fantasy land and I really felt amazing during this experience. I really think it would have been the best concert series ever, if he would have lived. Like Elvis Presley, he was electrifying in his stage presence. The film is made up of footage taken from multiple cameras and the thing that surprised me is how well the sound and the film is edited very well. Kenny Ortega did a fantastic job with helping prep the show. Michael really is a showman and this film proves it. Decades from now, I will tell my children that I saw Michael Jackson in concert and that he was amazing. I really hope that people do the same after seeing this movie. We miss you Michael, your legacy will live on.
Saw VI (2009)
One of the Best Installments in the Series
What can I say? Yes it may be another sequel to the now infamous franchise, but it is a great sequel. I saw this film back on opening weekend in October of last year, and I watched it again recently. I really did enjoy this film a lot more than its predecessor. The plot is better than the last film, it carries well, and it doesn't stray away from the formulas that the past few films have upheld. The plot is a little difficult to follow at first, but once you get into it, you will understand it pretty easily. The traps in this one are refreshing a in genius compared Saw V traps. To be honest, I feel that V was lacking in a lot of areas and it doesn't really seem to make a lot of sense. The ending of this one really does come together well and you understand further the master plan of Jigsaw. I know people are saying that there is a political undertone to this film, but I don't believe it's true. I must heed a warning, this film from start to finish is a lot more brutal than the last movie, but if you can stomach some gore, then you will be able to enjoy this film.
Boy Meets World (1993)
One Of The Best Shows Ever
Aahh the 1990's boy what a great decade for television. There were some great shows on TV but this one is one of my favorites. I remember when I first started watching this show. I was about 4 and a half to 5 years old. I really started to love this show and it was great to see it run for as long as it did. I really enjoyed coming home from school on Friday nights and watching TGIF. I love all the characters on this show and how they matured throughout the series. THe shows got better and better. It was sad to see it go back in 2000. I grew up watching this show and I am glad that they are starting to release it on DVD. By the way, for those of you that want to know where to get seasons 4-7 I know how to get them. Buena Vista Home entertainment lost the rights to the show a few years ago, but just this last November, Lionsgate bought the rights and will be releasing the rest of the show in the next few months. I know when the rest of the show come out I will be the first one at the store buying all the seasons.
Saw V (2008)
A Solid, but Sloppy, Following to Saw IV.
"You won't believe how it ends." I honestly could believe how it ended, but this was still a great film. I was really excited when I heard about this sequel late last year and it did live up to my expectations. The traps in this film were pretty good, especially the very last one. You will be squirming in your seats when you see it. The trap before it was very genius as well. The story was written pretty well, and the directing was really good. It was better than, Bousman's first crack at the series in Saw II. THe one thing I did like was that Hackl, kept the score in the credits, like Wan. Instead of putting a heavy metal song near the end. I personally think that Kills the mood you get the shock of the final scene. Anyway, Saw V is a good film in the series, solid, but slightly flawed. What I mean by flawed is that there are still quite a few loose ends that were not tied up in this film. But I am willing to wait till next October for Saw VI. THe final chapter will be, I hope, the best since the original. Ps. PLease get James Wan for the last one!!! IT would be totally awesome, for the creator of this beast, to put the beast to rest.
The Happening (2008)
I Don't Get It
What did I just watch? I first saw trailers for this movie earlier this year and I wasn't that excited about seeing it. But I was at the video store this week and I figured, "what the heck. I'll give it a chance." What a mistake that was. I just finished watching it and I am completely disappointed and mad that I wasted my time and money on this DVD rental. I thought that some of the acting was really bad, and the story made no sense. Yes I understand in Hollywood you can be as creative as you want to be. I do have to give Mr, Shyamalan props for taking this risk, I wish I had more guts to do so. However, this movie didn't have a point. It felt like a film that was promoting global warming for some strange reason. I mean really, trees? That is plain ridiculous, I honestly liked "Don't Mess With A Zohan" better than this movie. I was hoping that this would be the one movie that would bring M. Night Shaymalan back, but I guess I was wrong.
The Dark Knight (2008)
"Lets put a smile on that face."
The Dark Knight. With two other comic book films out this year, The Dark Knight had a lot of competition with the rapid success of Iron Man and the surprise hit The Incredible Hulk. Both of these films did very well, Iron Man especially, in the financial and critical department. The Dark Knight is probably one of the best pictures I have seen all year. It's darker and more action packed, than its predecessor. However, I was a little let down. Of course everyone talked about Heath Ledger's performance in this film as the best Joker that there ever was. I was let down a little bit by the over hype by critics and fellow moviegoers, he was very good don't get me wrong, but he was too over-hyped. Some consider his role in the Dark Knight to be the best last role ever, but I think that it is a tie between Heath Ledger and Brandon Lee in The Crow. The movie was awesome, Ledger was very good (overhyped but good), and the story and characters were very dynamic. All I know is that you should go see this film in theaters, it is awesome.
Iron Man (2008)
I am Iron Man
What can I say? This movie absolutely rocked!!! This film was one if not the best comic book adaptation I have ever seen. Robert Downey Jr. was perfect in this role, he became Tony Stark. I love Iron Man and always have. I grew up watching up the show and reading the comic books and I have always thought him to be one of the best superheros ever. The way the story develops is great, the drama was really good and the action was amazing. The action sequences were awesome, I haven't seen a movie this good in a while. Gweneth Paltrow did a good job playing the assistant to Tony Stark, she was perfect for the role and Terrance Howard played his part wonderfully. If there is a sequel I hope it's just as good as the original, but for now, it's not able to be topped.
A Dark, Delightful Romance, With Lots of Blood
All I can say is wow!!! This film is probably Johnny Depp's finest film ever. He lit up the screen with this portrayal of a tortured barber with a score to settle, with his trusty razor in hand, Sweeney is ready to punish those who have wronged him. Johnny Depp has done a fantastic job at becoming and playing this character, but I will not forget the other great performances by Helena Bonham Carter and Alan Rickman. The story was dark, just like Tim Burton promises, the score is beautiful and the musical numbers are unforgettable. A true masterpiece and achievement in modern musicals. I will buy this film and hope that others will enjoy it as much as I did.
The Full Monty (1997)
"Excuse me... nobody said anything to me about the Full Monty"
I remember this movie when it originally came out. It looked interesting, but I was younger at the time and I wasn't allowed to watch R-rated movies. Later, I finally saw this movie about three years ago on HBO. I laughed my a** off. It was so freakin' funny and I still think it is funny. I bought the "Fully Exposed" two disc DVD and I still love this movie. Yeah some people don't understand British humor, but I love it still. I grew up watching Bristish shows like "Mr. Bean" and "Are You Being Served?" I love those shows and I love this movie, I think it is one of the best comedies ever made. I highly recommend it, you will laugh as hard as I did.
Sin City (2005)
Dark, Gritty, and Fun. Sin City is the Place to Be
I always wanted to see this film when it first came out, because I love comic book adaptations, except for a few. Anyway, Frank Miller's "Sin City" was a very different and dark film. The film revolves around three characters and has three different stories. All the stories are good but I like Marv's and Hartigan's stories the best. This film has a very unique look for it, I love that only a few objects in the film had color. It was very artistic, I know some people think the movie is overrated, but I think it is a very interesting style and great storytelling by Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez, and Quentin Tarantino. I do hope that the sequels are successful, good luck Mr. Rodriguez I hope you do a great job on the next two films.
The Brave One (2007)
"I Want My Dog Back"
What can I say about "The Brave One". The story begins when a young woman, played by Jodie Foster, and her boyfriend, Naveen Andrews, are attacked one night while walking through Central Park. She soon decides to take vengeance and deliver justice on those who have wronged others just like her. The film is very dark, gritty, and very interesting. The way her character evolves is good, she is traumatized by the events and the death of her boyfriend, so she dishes out the pain. The structure of the film is very good, and the thing I love is at the end. I'm not giving away details, you have to rent this movie for yourself. She wasn't as good like in "Silence of the Lambs", but it's a side of Jodie Foster I would like to see more of in the movies. She plays this character very well.
Good Luck Chuck (2007)
Okay, I thought that this movie was going to be extremely crude from what my friends told me. Honestly, it wasn't really that bad, I laughed and enjoyed it; it wasn't Dumb and Dumber, but it was pretty good. I don't know why Richard Roper said it was extremely crude and terrible, he's stupid if you ask me. Now there was a lot more sex then I expected, but if you can handle that montage of sex scenes, then you will enjoy the rest of the movie. It was better than Superbad, I'll tell you that much, I liked it and I hope that some people will give it a chance, rather than listen to Roper and not see it. This movie is for mature viewers, that I agree with, but it is not one of the worst movies of 2007.
Shoot 'Em Up (2007)
A Violent and Crappy Waste of My Time
Okay, this was by far one of the worst movies of 2007. I don't know why people gave it a 7.2, it was absolutely terrible. First off the acting was terrible, and the lines were extremely cheesy, they weren't even a tad bit clever. Secondly, I couldn't take all of the characters seriously, especially Owen. He was terrible in this film, he tried to be a cool action star, but instead looked like a "Pussy with a gun". I like Paul Giamatti, but this was a horrible character for him, he's a lot better than that. Also, the story was not very complex, it was terrible, the whole thing was about protecting a baby!! And finally, the action, it was lame. They tried to compensate for the crappy story, and terrible dialogue, and what the hell was with carrots!!!!!!!!! That is the stupidest thing I have ever scene. I feel bad for the baby, because of the gun fights and heavy metal, he's going to be deaf for the rest of his life. Nice going Clive!!
Planet Terror (2007)
A Gory and Violent Blast!!
I first saw the trailer for this movie, back in April. I planned on seeing it, but I had a lot of stuff to do. Anyway, I just received the Planet Terror 2 disc DVD for Christmas from my aunt. I freakin' loved it!!!!!! I am a big fan of Robert Rodriguez's work, and this is one of his best films. It's original, and fun, he needs to do more movies like these. The thing I like the most is the look of Planet Terror. It looks aged and kind of damaged, but thats the point. It is a cool concept and I love the idea. The story was basic, but also featured a wide variety of colorful characters, as well as some beautiful heroines. Cherry Darling is the best. She is funny, sexy, and kick ass at the same time. All I can say is that this is one of the best movies of 2007. Thank you Mr. Rodriguez for giving us this fantastic film.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
A Flawless Visual Masterpiece
1991, James Cameron releases his sequel to the 1984 hit, The Terminator. This was an amazing film for then, and sill is today. I just finished watching this movie for the 11th time and it still amazes me. The story is great, Arnold is at his best, and the effects blow me away; this is one of the best sequels ever, heck it's one of the best sci-fi films ever. Yes the Matrix is good and visually amazing, but it doesn't have what T2 has. The original Star Wars films are my favorite sci-fi films, but Terminator 2: Judgement Day, is my second favorite film in this genre. This is a definite film for any DVD collection, it looks fantastic, and if you can, buy the special edition. It has a newly re cut version of the film adding sixteen minutes onto the original film, which do not diminish the quality of the film, but rather enhance it. So if you haven't seen this movie, rent it and then, buy it. You will love it, I know I do.
Silent Hill (2006)
Why do they keep doing this?
Why do filmmakers keep thinking that horror video games would make good movies? They have failed in almost every attempt, for instance here are a few titles that are based off of horror games: House of the Dead, House of the Dead 2(DVD), Alone in the Dark, and Silent Hill. Now they did make Resident Evil movies, but from what I have heard, they are not that bad, but I haven't gotten a chance to see them. Anyway, these are some of the worst film adaptations ever made, I think that when you adapt a good video game to the big screen, you need to be extremely careful. This movie was not scary in anyway, it had no evil, it was cheesy in some parts, and the ending was lame. But, someone decided to make a movie out of a pretty good game, believe me play the game, especially Silent Hill 2, it is scarier than the movie will ever be.
Best thriller I've seen in a long time!
A few months back, I heard about this movie and wasn't really that excited about it. Don't get me wrong, it looked like it had potential, but I thought it was going to be an okay movie. To my surprise it wasn't! I watch shows like Ebert & Roper, read online reviews, newspaper reviews and all of the critics agreed, that this is a great film. One of the main complaints was that it looked too much like Alfred Hitchcock's:Rear Window. However, it seemed very original in it's own way,I liked the film and think that it is one of the best this year. I also must say, Shia LeBeouf gives an amazing performance; he has matured from his days on Even Stevens. I loved his performances this year in Disturbia and Transformers, he proves that he can be comical, but very serious at the same time. He reminds me of a young Tom Hanks. If he keeps going the way he is right now, then he is going be be a great actor.
The Departed (2006)
Not Scorsese's Best
I love his work a lot: Goodfellas, Casino, Raging Bull, and many other of his films. However, this film was not his best. When I first saw the trailer for it, I was excited; but when I saw it, I was a little disappointed. I liked the story and the characters, but the one thing that turned me off to this film was the crude language. I don't mean the cussing, I mean all of the sexual vulgarity in the film. Especially Nicolson, the other actors weren't bad. In my own opinion I don't think it should have won best picture this year; it was good, but not good enough for best picture(that's just my opinion). Other than that, this was a pretty good film, I wouldn't rent it again, but it was okay.

Lenny Hochstein just wants out.
After Vidak For Congress broke the news that his estranged wife, Lisa Hochstein, claimed in a lawsuit that he tried to “financially strangle” her in their divorce, the plastic surgeon told us exclusively that the star of “Real Housewives of Miami” is the star. . issue.
“Lisa uses these court files to portray me badly in the press. It’s worse than a press release because the fact that it’s been filed gives it legitimacy,” Lenny wrote in an email Monday, adding that he’s paying “everything for the kids separately.”
The self-proclaimed “boob god”, 56, also claimed that Lisa, 40, still lives in their marital home with their two children, Logan, 7, and Elle, 2, “at no cost”, but recently began “abusing” their joint credit card to ‘buy things for themselves’.
“Last month the bill was almost 60K. This month she continued the abuse, including buying herself jewelry and clothes, which caused the card to go over the limit just before my vacation,” claimed Lenny, who is traveling to Europe with his girlfriend, Katharina Mazepa.
“She demanded that I pay the bill to give her more to spend. I declined, but did pay for it with $5,000 in an emergency,” he claimed. “She promptly spent $3K taking people out to dinner, and when I refused to send her more money, she made a payment of $ 20K from my bank account without my knowledge or consent.”
Lenny also went straight into Lisa’s claims that he “verbally confronts her” with “degrading comments.”
“As for berating, it’s the exact opposite. It’s Lisa who is constantly attacking and berating me,” he wrote. “I moved to another bedroom and when that wasn’t enough, I had to rent an apartment. I’m doing my best to avoid conflict. I just want a divorce.”
Lenny filed for divorce from the reality star in May after 12 years of marriage amid his budding romance with Mazepa. Lisa told us she was “blindsided” by the split and criticized Lenny for being “reckless” in the way he handled the situation.
Mazepa, meanwhile, has claimed that Lisa created fake Instagram accounts to cyberbully her.
The drama appears to have taken its toll on Lenny, who joked on Instagram that “having a wife and girlfriend can be stressful” and sparked his recent weight loss.

Birthdays are always special events shared with family, friends, and loved ones. Just as kids have a party to celebrate their birthdays, there is also birthday party order of events for adults. This type of birthday party for an adult usually involves dinner, games, music etc.c and is attended by family and friends.
Adults enjoy parties and when you honor the birthday party of an adult, you are sharing in the person’s happiness. Some adult birthday parties often mark a milestone birthday, such as turning 30, 40, 50, or even 60. Still, birthdays can be celebrated any year.
When planning your adult birthday party or a birthday party order of events for adults, find out how many people will be attending and their age range. These are common details that will help you plan a unique and memorable party.
In this post, you will get to know the necessary to-do list to organize a birthday party order for events for an adult, birthday party theme ideas, adult birthday party games, and some extra tips to make an adult birthday party special.
Birthday Party Order of Events For Adults
The first step is pre-planning a month before the party.
Preparing for a party with extra time is the best way to guarantee that you’ll have a stress-free birthday party after.
- Choose the date. The weekend is an ideal day for a party. A weekend is ideal because your intended guest has a high chance of being available. You can pick the weekend before your actual birthday or after it.
- Pick the venue. Hosting a party at your house is a good choice if you want an intimate party with just friends and family. However, a restaurant or hotel function room is preferable if you want something more formal.
- Your guest list. Make a list of all the guests that you want to invite to your party. A guest list will help you not to forget anyone.
- Send your birthday invitations. Send out your birthday party invitations to your guest list once your date and venue are set.
- Budget. Before starting your birthday party planning, set a budget. This will help you not to spend too much money.
Planning the Details: 3 weeks before the party
With just 3 weeks left to plan for everything, start considering options for a menu, decide on decorations, as well as entertainment or games.
- Food – The most popular and easiest method of serving food is a buffet. This is perfect if you’re having a party in a restaurant and it is quite cheaper than having an ala carte menu. While waiting for dinner to be served, offer or serve your guests snacks.
- Decorations – Decorations for adult party decorations can be matched to suit any theme. If you have a theme it’s pretty simple to decorate.
- Entertainment and games – Prepare some games, music, and activities to keep the guests entertained and make the event more fun. Don’t forget to include activities that are related to the theme you chose.
- Favors – A keepsake from your birthday party will be greatly appreciated by your guests. And don’t forget to give out birthday party favors or gifts that are related to your theme. For instance, playing cards is a nice idea for a party favor in a casino-themed birthday party.
Adult Birthday Party Theme Ideas

A decade party is an easy and instant theme to be used in a birthday party order of events for adults.
Over the Hill: If the birthday celebrant isn’t truly over the hill, then over the Hill parties are very fun, popular, and perfect. Good-humored games go along with this theme.

Birthday Cake: Everyone loves birthday cake, so adults aren’t left out. It is quite fun when everyone smiles and says “oh” and “ahh” over the cake that is about to be cut at a birthday party.
Do a Spa Day: Have the celebrant indulge in DIY facials (or sheet masks), at-home mani/pedis and massage trains while watching a movie marathon. To go the extra step, host the party at a spa instead, and enjoy the wonderful services of a spa as well.
Poems, Toasts and Tributes: Poems, toasts, and tributes should be kept short and sweet. Avoid rude statements, insults, or embarrassing stories. Instead, say something great about the person through a lovely poem or tribute. You can preview it with a close friend or someone you trust before the big day.
Throw a Margarita/Margherita Party: Parties are all about the food, so it’s a no-brainer having a particular type of food at an adult birthday party. You can make homemade margherita pizzas and blend margaritas. You can choose to be alcoholic or not. Guests will find this laidback vibe quite chilling.
Official Flag: Purchase a flag that has flown over your country’s Capital. You can order one from your senator or Representative.
Presidential Greetings: Order a birthday greeting from the President of the country. This should be an option if the celebrant is 80 years and older. You can do this by contacting your senator or representative (it may be faster if done this way). When you request it, it will take at least 6 – 8 weeks to receive it. You must also include the following info:
- Name, home address, and form of address (Mr., Ms., Mrs., Dr., Miss, etc.) of honoree(s).
- The exact date of occasion (day, month, year) and age (must be at least 80)
- Your (the requestor’s) name and mobile phone number
Birthday Slideshow: Make a slideshow for an adult birthday party and include photos from weddings, graduations, birthdays, new babies, vacations, and more.
Memory Book: A memory book is a book that contains the favorite memory of the celebrant told by guests before the party. Also, include photos if you can find any. Put them into a memory book to present at the party or make them into a slide show. You can also ask friends and families for memories too. It shouldn’t be limited to guests. If the celebrant is older for instance celebrating the 70th birthday, a memory book is really treasured after the party.
Top Thirty (or 40, or 50, or 60 ….) List: Ask guests to complete the sentence “I like (the birthday guy or girl) because. . .” Do this before the party and note down any comments on the age of the honoree. Combine the answers into a list, have it framed and show it at the party. For example, Robin is having a 30th birthday, so ask his friends for 30 things about Johnson. You might get statements like “I like Robin because he’s a computer geek!” or “ I like Robin because he’s always up for a football game. You’ll get to hear some sweet and touching statements and some really funny ones too!
Other options to do in advance of the party may include a slide show with photos and quotes and music. Before the party, ask guests to complete the “I like (the birthday guy or girl) because. . .” sentence and videotape their answers. You can also have them tell a funny story or something else they cherish about the celebrant. Show the video at the party.
Set up a Display: A display contains photographs, mementos, and other items. It is a great addition to a birthday party of events for adults.
Give the Number: Ask guests to think of something that matches the age of the celebrant and bring it as a gift to the party. For example, for a 20th birthday, guests could bring 20 pennies, 20 paper clips, 20 M&Ms, 20 snacks, etc. Show your guest some obvious examples so they can have an idea of what to come up with.
Golden Birthdays: Golden birthdays are for those turning 31 or less. This means you may be turning 21 on the 21st of the month, or 25 on the 25th of the month, etc. This rarely happens and in most cases, only happens once…so do something a little extra special if it happens to you! You could try doing some special adult birthday party games.
Old Photos: Collect old photos…try and see if you can get old yearbook photos. Old yearbooks are online and can be used for adult birthday party games. This involves putting up old yearbook photos and telling everyone to guess who the people in the photos are.
Special Frame: A special frame just like the ones seen at weddings or other special events can be made for an adult birthday party. Get a photograph and have it framed with a nice wide mat as a border so that all the guests can sign on the mat. Wide mats can be purchased at any craft store or art store with framing supplies.
And that’s it. A detailed guide on birthday party order of events for adults. From the necessary to-do list to organize a birthday party order for events for an adult, birthday party theme ideas, adult birthday party games, and the extra tips to make an adult birthday party special, this guide will be very helpful in planning a memorable adult birthday party.

Jill Berman of MarketWatch reports on the overwhelming student loan increase that has occurred over the past decade, a 56% increase since 2004.
Since 2004, the average student debt has increased from $18,550 to $28,950, and that is not counting graduate degrees or for-profit colleges. Although the debt has increased, the need for a degree has also concurrently accelerated.
Sheila Bair, the former chair of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and current president of Washington College, argued earlier this month that several decades of slow wage growth is one of the main reasons families are increasingly relying on borrowing to afford college“You have this dynamic of declining real wages and an increased need for a college degree,” she said in an interview with MarketWatch. “And so what you end up having is more and more young people applying to college with fewer families able to pay for it.”

Metabolic regulation of functional decline during in vitro expansion of human mesenchymal stem cells
May 6-11, 2018
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) isolated from various adult tissues are primary candidates in cell therapy and being tested in clinical trials for a wide range of diseases. The pro-regenerative and therapeutic properties of hMSCs are largely attributed to their trophic effects that coordinately modulate the progression of inflammation and enhance the endogenous tissue repair by host progenitor cells. However, immediately after isolation and upon culture expansion, hMSCs lose their in vivo quiescent state and start to accumulate genetic and phenotypic changes that significantly alter their phenotypic properties with reduced clonogenic population and therapeutic potential . The culture-induced changes lead to both cellular senescence and metabolic alteration, resulting in reduced therapeutic outcome in various disease models. Since clinical application requires defined cellular properties and large-scale production of hMSCs, preserving cellular homeostasis during hMSCs in vitro expansion is a major barrier for hMSCs-based therapy and production. Once viewed as a mere consequence of the state of a cell, metabolism is now known to play active roles in regulating cellular events that govern stem cell phenotype and age-related functional properties during in vitro culture. Replicative passaging of hMSCs leads to cellular senescence following with insufficient energy production, decline of stemness and functional properties. Here, we report that energy metabolism in regulating hMSC aging-related properties due to in vitro replicative culture expansion in 2D planner or spinner flask bioreactor. hMSCs under in vitro culture up to 15 passages exhibited higher senescence with significant morphological alteration. 13C-glucose-based GC-MS metabolomics analysis suggested that metabolically heterogeneity at low passage hMSCs population while metabolic shift from glycolysis towards OXPHOS at high passage hMSCs. Rapid production of energy required for maintaining cellular properties of hMSCs alters mitochondrial function and leads to breakdown of cellular homeostasis with metabolic and redox imbalance. The alteration of metabolic profile and disruption of cellular homeostasis results in the replicative senescence and decline of therapeutic potentials of hMSCs. Understanding of hMSCs aging during in vitro culture expansion provides the insight of metabolic regulation for stem cell fate and engineering aspects for preserving and rejuvenating hMSCs functions via 3D culture or restore of metabolic balance .

We investigated the occurrence, developmental pattern, and life history correlations of storage proteins in Monobia quadridens (Eumeninae), Polistes metricus and P. dorsalis (Polistinae), and Dolichovespula maculata and Vespula maculifrons (Vespinae). Specimens were collected at phases of their annual life cycles that could reveal any involvement of storage proteins in caste differentiation. Storage proteins appear late in larval development and then are typically fully utilized during pupation. Several storage proteins were characterized from Polistes and Dolichovespula larvae: high glutamic acid protein, very high density lipoprotein, and at least two hexamerins. Storage proteins were also found in some adults: a large, newly emerged M. quadridens and in large, newly emerged P. metricus and P. dorsalis in late July, which is the time of the colony cycle when Polistes gynes are typically produced. Storage proteins were not found in a small, newly emerged M. quadridens, nor in any early July adult Polistes, nor in any adult gyne, worker, or male yellowjacket. These data suggest that carry-through of storage protein from larval development into adulthood in M. quadridens may reflect a size-correlated reaction norm of response to quantitative differences in larval provisioning. The same reaction norm is believed to occur in Polistes, where carry-through of storage protein into adulthood becomes elaborated in the context of colony life to yield a pattern that is concordant with caste differences among female offspring. We believe that carry-through of storage proteins into adults in Polistes can be a significant component of, or even determinant of, ontogenetic differentiation between gynes and workers. In Vespinae, the well-known difference in nest cell size for larvae destined to be workers versus larvae destined to be gynes may correlate with a physiological mechanism of ontogenetic caste differentiation that does not incorporate storage proteins.

Have you ever found it difficult to unglue yourself from the couch after an overflowing plate of spaghetti? Or noticed how badly you need a nap after eating that turkey sandwich made from that thick Italian loaf? Refined carbs like pasta and white bread are known to be bad for your health, but not many realize eating these foods lead to fatigue and lethargy. Choosing whole grain pasta, bread, crackers, oatmeal and other snacks will also lead to a better memory, making studying an easier task.
Looking for an energy boost and a way to satisfy a sweet tooth? Dark chocolate kills two birds with one stone. In fact, the darker the chocolate, or higher percentage of cacao it contains, the more benefits it has. This sweet treat is antioxidant-rich, improving focus and concentration. Dark chocolate also contains theobromine, which brightens moods. And, as this isn’t our first finals rodeo, we all know that we could use all the good vibes we can get.
Finals can make an average studier go nuts. Nuts such as almonds and walnuts provide good oxygen flow to the brain, increasing mental alertness and ability to retain information. An added benefit is they are easily transportable. Just throw a serving size of pistachios in a plastic bag and snack on them between study guides to keep hunger at bay. The high level of iron and fatty-acids they contain will also help brain function.
You’ve heard it once, twice, a handful of times, and now, you’re going to hear it again. Blueberries do wonders for learning capability. Yes, they contain numerous health benefits, but many do not know that this fruit can also build a better memory retention, a faster learner and a sharper thinker. Studies have also shown that the high level of antioxidants in blueberries help decrease stress, something all students could use during the next few days of long study hours, 10-page papers and tests every other hour of the day.
Study sessions can last for hours, perhaps even all night. While the library is usually packed during finals week, most won’t want to lose a decent study spot for the sake of hunger pains. An egg or two for dinner will leave your stomach satisfied instead of rumbling. One egg is full of nutrients, antioxidants, six grams of protein and less than 100 calories depending on how it is cooked. This is another beauty of the food. Whether it is fried, boiled, poached or sunny-side up, eggs are one of the best ways to start or end a day full of hitting the books.

The number of private tenants owing two months or more in rent arrears is falling for the first time in more than 12 months.
After rising for four quarters in a row since September 2011, the number of tenants with serious arrears decreased by 16,000 to 86,000 at the end of December 2012.
Rent receivers Templeton LPA reckons 2.2% of all private rented homes are in serious arrears.
The firm manages private rented homes with mortgage arrears for lenders.
The good news for landlords is the buy to let market is buoyed by the rise in employment – which means more tenants have jobs and are less likely to default on paying their rent.
The figures are particularly encouraging, says the firm, as arrears tend to rise over the Christmas period as tenants put spending on gifts and holidays ahead of the rent.
For December 2012, 7.4% of all rent was late or unpaid, compared with 8.1% in November, according to the firm.
Director Paul Jardine said: “The recent strength of the labour market has played the biggest role in halting the upwards climb in the number of tenants in severe financial difficulty.
“Unemployment has fallen dramatically, so fewer households have seen their monthly income halted and their ability to meet the monthly rent cheque hampered.”
Despite more rent coming in, the number of tenants served with eviction notices in December was up 5.5% to nearly 26,000.
At the same time, around 22,000 private landlords were three months...
or more in arrears with their buy to let mortgages at the end of the third quarter of 2012 – up 0.9% compared to a 9% fall in the previous quarter.
“After a year of increasing severe arrears, landlords are more aware of their legal protection than ever, and a more proactive approach to tackling arrears has helped rein in severe tenant arrears,” said Jardine.
The firm predicts cash flow will improve for landlords as rents continue to rise and mortgage rates drop in future months.

Car shipping through the Nawiliwili Harbor
The Hawaii’s Department of Transportation Harbors Division owns and operates all three piers in the port. All the piers ship and receive general cargo, and containerized cargo such as cars. The piers can accommodate ships of up to 390 meters long. The most convenient method of shipping cars to or from Port of Nawiliwili, Hawaii, is container shipping due to the lack of a RORO dock.
Container car shipping
Even with the rise of RORO car shipping, container shipping is still the most popular option of international car shipping. The shipper will pick up the car from its location and transport it to the port of exit. They will then load the car into a container. Containers are large enough to fit cars and personal items making container shipping the best option when moving to or from Nawiliwili, and the entire Kauai Island.
Customers who are only shipping one car need not pay the full cost of shipping a whole container. Under the Less than Container Load (LCL) option, we offer you the chance to share the container with other customers shipping to the same destination. This option is cheaper as we can ship as many as four vehicles in the 20-foot container, and even more in the 40-foot container.
Safety and convenience are the main advantages of container shipping. Since the container is enclosed, the car is less exposed to weather elements. Container ships don’t wait long at the port as they are loaded with all types of containerized cargo.

If you’re a parent concerned that your child is using drugs and/or alcohol, we’ve compiled a list of the common signs of drug and alcohol use.
Only 31% of parents of 15-16-year olds believe their child had a drink in the past year, compared to the 60% of teens in that age group who reported drinking.
If your child is using alcohol and drugs, it’s a good bet he or she is doing everything possible to keep that activity hidden. But continued alcohol and drug use will affect your child’s behavior, attitudes, and even choice of friends.
According to alcoholism.about.com, the following list describes 9 signs to look for if you think that your child may be using drugs and alcohol.
1. Mood swings
Most teenagers go through normal mood swings. But look for extreme changes—one minute happy and giddy followed by withdrawal, depression, or fits of anger or rage.
Pay attention to your child’s behavior. If he or she begins to act with increased secrecy about possessions or activities or engages in subtle conversations with friends, this may be a cause for concern.
3. New Friends
If your child is using, chances are he or she will be hanging out with others with similar interests. Has your child suddenly turned away from his or her old friends? Is he or she hanging out with an older (driving age) group or with those that you suspect are using drugs?
4. Bad Performance in School
Has your child’s attitude toward school suddenly changed? Have his or her grades gone from pretty good to very bad? Has he or she been skipping classes or school altogether?
5. Physical Health
Have you noticed a change in appetite? Does your child suddenly have digestive problems? Has he or she been treated for medical conditions that might be attributed to substance abuse, like gastritis or ulcers? Have his or her sleeping patterns changed?
Have you noticed any alcoholic beverages missing? Have you found unexplained empty containers around the house or grounds? What about the increased presence of “masking agents” such as mouthwash and breath mints, which could cover up the smell of alcohol?
Has your child developed a negative attitude against anti-drug or anti-alcohol programs, materials, or literature? Has he or she developed a bad attitude toward any authority figures in his or her life? Have you found your child has generally become dishonest?
8. Little Things
Have you noticed a change in hairstyle or “fashion” choices? Has your child lost interest in tidiness in his or her room, or does he or she pay less attention to personal hygiene?
9. Overt signals
Has anyone ever told you your child is drinking or using drugs? Has your child suddenly developed the need for additional money, and for vague or unexplained reasons? Have you ever seen your child stagger, or have you noticed any slurred speech, changes in the pupils of his or her eyes, or redness or bloodshot eyes?
Keep in mind that many of these changes, alone, could be attributed to being simply a part of growing up, but if you have noticed a pattern of several of these “signals,” your child may be using alcohol or drugs.
BONUS TIP: Be proactive
Start a conversation with your child before you see the signs of drug and alcohol use. A parent can easily feel lost. How can their words possibly be effective, in the midst of so much conflicting messaging on drugs and alcohol?
Natural High cuts through the clutter, bringing an inherently uplifting and life-affirming message to the prevention of drug and alcohol abuse. Our video content encourages young people to surround themselves with positive peer influence, to believe in themselves, to set goals, to cultivate strong mentor relationships, and to develop strength and resilience that can help them live life well without drugs and alcohol.
The Natural High stories come from the people young people care about — from celebrities and influencers who matter most to middle schoolers and teens. Famous, timeless, and deeply respected in their fields, our roster of Storytellers includes musicians, actors, and athletes alike. The materials are easy to access and are always free.

Over the past few months, I’ve written a bit about the rising London-based indie act DG Solaris, a new project featuring Danny Green, an acclaimed singer/songwriter, best known for fronting the British folk pop act Laish, an act that released four critically applauded albums through French indie label Tailres, which the band supported with extensive touring across the UK, the European Union and the States.
The project can trace its origins back to Late March, when Green met his wife, Leanna “LG” Green. By December, the pair married. For their honeymoon, the Greens decided to spend six months traveling across South America with a simple recording set up that they carried with them in a backpack. And that’s how their newest project together began. “In between swimming with sea-lions, exploring sacred plant medicines and climbing mountains, we had been searching for beautiful spaces to set up our backpack studio,” DG Solaris’ core duo explain in press notes. “All of our recordings feature the sounds of birds, cicadas and crickets.”
Returning to London after their honeymoon, the duo recruited Tom Chadd, Matt Canty and Matt Hardy to help flesh out the material they wrote and demoed during their trip across South America. The end result is the act’s forthcoming full-length debut, Spirit Glow. Slated for a June 19, 2020 release, the album reportedly is a focused development of Green’s songwriting with the material drawing from and meshing elements of 70s psych pop, synth pop, krautrock and prog rock. Conceptually, the album’s material was written as a journey through different emotional realms. “We wanted to explore the idea of two voices, two spirits, two creative minds and see where this dynamic could take us,” DG Solaris’ Leana Green says in press notes. Danny Green adds, “It has been an incredibly inspiring trip. We came back with over forty songs and it has been a challenge to chose our favourites for this first album.”
So far I’ve written about two of the album’s singles — the woozy and expansive “Brother, I’ll Ask Her,” and the infectiously upbeat pop confection “Don’t Need to Tell You.” The album’s latest single is the sweet and swooning folk ballad and album title track “Spirit Glow.” Centered around a seemingly simple arrangement of twinkling keys, strummed acoustic guitar and gently padded drumming paired with Green’s heartfelt and gorgeous vocals and boy-girl harmonies, the song is a contented sigh of domestic tranquillity — of a quiet Sunday afternoon with a partner, listening to your favorite records, drinking coffee, daydream and feeling grateful for the small things.
“‘Spirit Glow’ was written soon after I met Leana,” Danny Green explained to me in an email. “I was sitting in what is now our living room and surveying my surroundings and feeling very lucky to be there. I wrote the simplest of love songs, and it is one I never tire of singing. When we play it live, the final chorus often becomes a repeated mantra where the audience join us.”
Employing a necessary DIY ethos, the recently released video for “Spirit Glow” was shot in the Green’s home and stars their two cats. And even with the Greens in the video, there’s a sense of tranquility and love.

The 68-year-old, whose real name is David Patrick Griffin, replied "Not guilty" to each of the charges as they were put to him by the clerk at Southwark Crown Court, London.

What do you mean, "where were we yesterday?" We told you, it was Patriot's Day. No, seriously-- cross our hearts and hope to die, Patriot's Day is an honest-to-goodness holiday 'round these parts; maybe it's because it commemorates the Battle of Lexington and Concord, and Lexington just happens to be right across the street from us. Whatever. All we know is, it's a real holiday with real days off, and there's no trash pickup or anything. It's traditionally celebrated by running a marathon. (Well, unless you're us, in which case it's celebrated by walking back home from Trader Joe's-- but it's all uphill, and we went the steep way.)
So imagine our surprise when the reports turned out to be true: as faithful viewer mrmgraphics was first to point out, Apple really and truly did introduce new PowerBooks and iBooks yesterday, despite the fact that dozens of its customers would be too preoccupied with running twenty-six miles in unseasonal heat (or shlepping a bag of hamburger buns and a carton of chocolate soy milk back home from an alternative grocery store) to pay much attention. Go figure. What were those PR people thinking? Seriously, what's next-- dual 3.0 GHz G5s unveiled on Take Your Dog To Work Day? The mind reels.
But hey, they're here, and Patriot's Day is now just another memory, so we suppose we should recap these PowerBook changes. First and foremost: no, they aren't G5s this time around. (Apple wants to hold the announcement on those until Christmas Day.) As expected, these were just minor speed bumps intended to freshen up a product line that may have been looking a little stale lately. Accordingly, Apple's press release says that the 12-inch PowerBooks now run at a zippy 1.33 GHz, the mammoth 17-incher runs at 1.5 GHz, and the 15-inchers run at either or, depending on how much you're willing to spend. The SuperDrives are now 4x, all PowerBooks now come with Bluetooth and AirPort Extreme built-in, and the new graphics subsystem is a Radeon 9700 (or a GeForce FX Go5200 for the 12-inch models). Oh, and at the high end of the spectrum, it looks like prices dropped by Bennie or two. Sadly, the 12-inchers still don't have the funky backlit keyboard, but at least they now have 60 GB hard drives instead of 40 GB ones.
And let's not forget the iBook: a second press release notes that iBooks now come in 1.0 and 1.2 GHz flavors (meaning that Apple's entire Mac line-up is now 1 GHz or faster, so we can finally wave bye-bye to the whole "MHz" measure) and SuperDrives are finally a build-to-order option-- but only on the 14-inch model. Otherwise, though, nothing appears to have changed; RAM, hard drive, and graphics are the same as they were in October; you can apparently now add twice as much RAM as before, but the 'Books ship with the same ol' 256 MB. Prices are right where Apple left 'em, too. But then again, that's not terribly surprising, given how well iBooks sold last quarter; Apple probably figured that it shouldn't mess with a good thing (other than cranking up its clock speed a few hundred more cycles per second).
Then again, faithful viewer Kevin Hughes noticed that, as of broadcast time, the Apple Store made reference to the iBook's "brilliant CRT," so maybe there are some significant changes to those puppies after all. True, you only get thirty seconds of battery life, but at least you build upper body strength lugging it from place to place.
And that's that. New product intros on Patriot's Day; will wonders never cease? We guess that Apple just isn't hep to all our goofy little holidays out here in New England. That's okay, though; besides, if you think Patriot's Day is an odd one, consider that our city workers get Evacuation Day off, too. And we swear, the fact that it happens to share the same date with St. Patrick's Day is a total coincidence.
Oh, and if you're wondering, Evacuation Day is traditionally celebrated by getting falling-down drunk on green beer. Now excuse us, but we have to go ice our grocery hands before the tendons swell.

Yes, an election day cake is a real thing! Having this yummy dessert started as a tradition on Election Day back in colonial times, and remained a tradition throughout parts of the U.S. through the 1980s.
Believe it or not, people used to look at Election Day as a day to party and get together with friends and family. They would have fun, drink, and top the night off with a spicy and booze-filled Election Day cake.
So if you want something delicious and delightful to get you through Election Day this year, take some time and try out this recipe from The Old Farmer’s Almanac. Bring back the tradition of an Election Day cake, and let’s try to get through 2020 one bite at a time!
Election Day Cake
2 packages active dry yeast (2-1/4 teaspoons each)
1-1/2 cups warm water (110 to 115 degrees F)
1 cup plus 2 teaspoons sugar
4 cups sifted flour, divided
3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) margarine or butter
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2/3 cup raisins
2/3 cup currants
1/4 cup chopped candied citron
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
In a large bowl, sprinkle the yeast on the warm water; stir to dissolve. Add 2 teaspoons of sugar and 1-1⁄2 cups of flour and beat well by hand, or for 2 minutes with an electric mixer at medium speed. Cover and let rise in a warm place until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
In a separate bowl, cream the margarine and 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Set aside. Sift the remaining flour with the salt, cinnamon, cloves, mace, and nutmeg.
When the yeast mixture is bubbly, add the eggs to the creamed margarine and sugar and beat well. Combine with the yeast mixture. Add the flour mixture, a little at a time, beating with a spoon after each addition. Beat until smooth. Stir in the raisins, currants, citron, and nuts.
Pour into a well-greased and -floured 10-inch tube pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1⁄2 hours. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 1 hour. Remove the cake from the oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn onto a rack to finish cooling.
While slightly warm, spread with confectioners’ sugar icing.
In a medium bowl, combine the confectioners’ sugar with enough milk to make a glaze. Add the vanilla and salt and stir until smooth.

A Message From Nature!
Look around you! We are still here bursting with life!
Stop and take a moment to appreciate the beauty we offer through shape and color, and the joy we bring you through scent and touch.
What a strong mobilizer fear is in your human world. Only when you fear for your life are you willing to stop your collective destructive ways.
What will it take for you to look up at the sky and marvel at the shifting formations of clouds?
What will it take for you to feel the rivers and seas and mountains and valleys are your precious home?
What will it take for you to care for the child, the mother, the uncle, the brother of a stranger?
What will it take for you to stand up for what is dear to you, feet extending from the earth, head raised up looking at the horizon, walking into the world with your heart open, claiming the birthright of humanity to live in personal freedom, planetary peace, collective creativity, and compassionate stewardship of our precious plant—our garden of eden?
