Description of Research Expertise

Life demands that proteins fold into elaborate structures to perform the overwhelming majority of biological functions. We investigate how components of the proteostasis (protein homeostasis) network enable cells to achieve successful protein folding. In particular, we seek to understand how cells prevent, reverse, or even promote the formation of diverse misfolded conformers, encompassing: prions, amyloids, fibrillar structures, amorphous aggregates and toxic soluble oligomers.

Amyloid fibers are self-templating protein conformers. They self-replicate their specific ‘cross-β’ conformation at their growing ends, by converting other copies of the same protein to the ‘cross-β’ amyloid form. When amyloid fibers grow and divide with high efficiency they can be infectious, and are then termed prions (Cushman et al., 2010; Shorter & Lindquist, 2005; Shorter, 2010). Cells have evolved a sophisticated machinery to alleviate such aberrant protein aggregation. For example, protein disaggregases resolve protein aggregates, molecular chaperones prevent protein aggregation, osmolytes act as chemical chaperones, and degradation systems eliminate misfolded proteins (Shorter, 2008; Vashist et al. 2010).

Nonetheless, these safeguards can be breached, especially as organisms age, and the consequences are often fatal. Prion and amyloid formation are associated with some of the most devastating neurodegenerative diseases confronting humankind, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson's disease, variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and Huntington's disease (Cushman et al., 2010; Jackrel & Shorter, 2011). Yet, surprisingly, it is becoming increasingly clear that prions and amyloids are not always a problem. In fact, several have been harnessed during evolution for adaptive purposes and feature in some of the most revolutionary new concepts in biology and evolution, including protein-based genetic elements, long-term memory formation, melanosome biogenesis, evolutionary capacitance and the revelation of cryptic genetic variation (Shorter & Lindquist, 2005; Watt et al., 2009; Shorter, 2010). We employ biochemistry and genetics to understand the enigmatic mechanistic interfaces that exist between protein disaggregases, molecular chaperones, small molecules and amyloid/prion fibers or other misfolded species, and how these interfaces can be manipulated to divert pathogenic and promote beneficial phenotypic trajectories. Specifically, we are pursuing the following goals:

1) Defining the structural and mechanistic basis for Hsp104 function. One major focus concerns Hsp104, a protein disaggregase of the AAA+ superfamily from yeast, which disaggregates denatured proteins and returns them to normal function (Shorter, 2008; Vashist et al. 2010; DeSantis & Shorter, 2012). Hsp104 is also essential for the formation and inheritance of several yeast prions; protein-based genetic elements comprised of amyloid fibers that self-perpetuate alterations in protein form and function. Hsp104 can both construct and deconstruct self-replicating amyloid forms of Sup35, which comprise the yeast prion [PSI+], and Ure2, which comprise the yeast prion [URE3] (Shorter & Lindquist, 2004; Shorter & Lindquist, 2006). We aim to elucidate the hexameric structure of Hsp104 (Wendler et al., 2007; Wendler et al., 2009; Sweeny et al., 2011). We also strive to understand the mechanistic basis of how Hsp104 structure enables these disaggregation activities and other prion-regulatory functions (DeSantis et al., 2012; DeSantis and Shorter, 2012).

Hsp104 is often assisted by a supporting cast of molecular chaperones to rescue aggregated polypeptides (Sweeny & Shorter, 2008). Most notably, Hsp70, Hsp40 and small heat shock proteins synergize with Hsp104 to promote the reactivation of protein aggregates (Duennwald et al., 2012). We wish to understand how these molecular chaperones achieve these synergistic activities (Doyle et al., 2007; Shorter & Lindquist, 2008; DeSantis & Shorter, 2012; Duennwald et al., 2012). Finally, we seek to define the natural substrates comprising the Hsp104 folding reservoir and determine the impact of specific Hsp104 clients on yeast biology.

2) Applying Hsp104 to disease-associated protein misfolding and aggregation. Inexplicably, Hsp104 has no known homologue or orthologue in metazoa. This deficiency is vexing, for it would seem that a protein that reverses protein aggregation and restores protein function, would be critical in our fight against several diseases caused by aberrant protein aggregation. Hence, we engineer, evolve and apply Hsp104 to metazoan systems to antagonize and reverse the proteotoxic aggregation pathways that are intimately connected with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and Huntington’s disease as well as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and HIV infection (Lo Bianco et al., 2008; Shorter, 2008; Vashist et al. 2010; Castellano and Shorter, 2012; DeSantis et al., 2012).

3) Defining the metazoan disaggregase machinery. The loss of Hsp104 from metazoan lineages is abrupt. The choanoflagellate protist, Monosiga brevicollis, one of the most advanced pre-metazoans has a clear Hsp104 homologue, whereas even early branching metazoans like the sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis do not. The reason underlying the loss of Hsp104 is unclear, especially because Hsp104 is well tolerated in animal systems. Whether mammals possess an analogous protein disaggregase (AAA+ protein or otherwise) has endured as an important open question. Recently, we have answered this question and identified a mammalian disaggregase system comprised of Hsp110, Hsp70 and Hsp40, which catalyzes the disaggregation and reactivation of chemically and thermally denatured aggregates, but is unable to rapidly remodel amyloid (Shorter, 2011). However, together with small heat shock proteins, Hsp110, Hsp70 and Hsp40 can slowly depolymerize amyloid fibers from their ends (Duennwald et al., 2012). We are now delineating the mechanism of Hsp110, Hsp70 and Hsp40 action . We are also interested in identifying additional metazoan disaggregases.

4) Defining how small molecules modulate amyloid folding trajectories. We employ a variety of small molecules as mechanistic probes to understand amyloid foldings pathways of Sup35 and Aβ42. These include 4,5-dianilinophthalimide (DAPH-1) and analogs, which dissolve Aβ42 fibers (that occur in Alzheimer's disease) and eliminate their neurotoxicity (Wang et al., 2008). DAPH-1 also disrupts Sup35 prion structure and function (Wang et al., 2008). We are interested in defining the mechanisms by which DAPH-1 and other small molecules modulate amyloid formation. Intriguingly, we have found that some small molecules select for the formation of drug-resistant prions or amyloids (Roberts et al., 2009; Shorter, 2010; Duennwald & Shorter, 2010). We have also discovered that specific small molecule combinations can preclude the formation of drug-resistant polymorphs or 'strains' (Roberts et al., 2009; Shorter, 2010; Duennwald & Shorter, 2010). Furthermore, we seek to elucidate synergies between small molecules and protein disaggregases that may accelerate the disruption of specific amyloid oligomers and fibers.

5) Defining the misfolding trajectories of RNA-binding proteins bearing prion-like domains in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and other neurodegenerative disorders. Finally, we are investigating the mechanisms by which certain RNA-binding proteins, including TDP-43 and FUS, misfold and aggregate in various neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) with ubiquitin positive inclusions (FTLD-U) (Johnson et al., 2009; Sun et al., 2011). Intriguingly, using a bioinformaics approach we have discovered that TDP-43 and FUS harbor a prion-like domain similar to the domain in Sup35, Ure2 and other yeast prion proteins that confers prionogenicity (Cushman et al., 2010; Sun et al., 2011; Gitler and Shorter, 2011; King et al., 2012). Remarkably, our bioinformatics approach indicates that several RNA-binding proteins in the human genome harbor prion-like domains similar to FUS and TDP-43 (Gitler and Shorter, 2011; Couthouis et al., 2011; Couthouis et al., 2012; King et al., 2012). We have determined that two of these, TAF15 and EWSR1, are intrinsically aggregation prone and connected through pathology and genetics to ALS (Couthouis et al., 2011; Couthouis et al., 2012). We are interested to determine whether other RNA-binding proteins bearing prion-like domains misfold and contribute to other neurodegenerative disorders (King et al., 2012; Li et al., 2013). Indeed, we recently established that mutations in prion-like domains in hnRNPA2B1 and hnRNPA1 cause multisystem proteinopathy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Kim et al., 2013). We aim to understand how the prion-like domain enables misfolding and whether these RNA-binding proteins access prion-like conformers (Li et al., 2013). We are also elucidating methods to prevent or reverse the misfolding of various RNA-binding proteins with prion-like domains and mitigate their toxicity (Sun et al., 2011; Armakola et al., 2012).

3 Ways You’re Helping Your Competitors Get Ahead

“We can’t compete with the practice down street!”

Ever heard or thought that phrase?  It’s something we’ve heard many times from our 2,800 aesthetic medical members.  Just like any other business, we’re all concerned about our competitors and new entrants to this space.

There are many ways that aesthetic practices can easily differentiate themselves. Some invest in their unique brand or position themselves as ‘experts’ in a particular treatment or procedure.  Others become first-movers with new technology and place a foothold in the market for new treatments.  A few even have the capital to make large investments in marketing, becoming well-recognized with billboards, television, radio and social media.

However, not all of us have the resources to make these kinds of investments in our brand, equipment, and marketing.  In contrast to the providers above, we’ve seen many smaller businesses take other measures to ‘compete,’ which, although seemingly strategic at the time, have been detrimental to their businesses.  You may not be the biggest, most recognizable practice on the block, but you can take steps to ensure that your actions are to your benefit, not your neighbors’.  Here are three ways your actions could be helping your competitors get ahead:

Getting into price wars.

Take Botox for instance.  The price of Botox varies significantly between different types of practices, different regions, and different providers. If your margin on Botox is already slim and your neighbor discounts to a point where the treatment becomes a loss-leader, I wouldn’t consider trying to match their price, unless you are confident that you can provide additional services that you can easily cross-sell.  Focus your efforts on another aspect of your business that will draw patients in—this could be your stellar service, your provider’s excellent credentials, and or your amazing patient outcomes.  Instead of reducing your price, put more emphasis into sharing your successes and marketing your reputation through before and after photos, testimonials, positive patient experiences, and ratings & reviews.  Worried that your pricing will deter prospective patients?  Price transparency, specifically online, also guarantees that the patients coming to you will generally be less sensitive to price when they call you for a consultation.  The same goes for using Groupon.  I know a few practices who’ve been successful with Groupon, but I’d advise that you use caution if you’re going down this path. Without the right support and follow-up system in place, Groupon patients could easily disappear after they’ve redeemed their discounted treatment.  It is widely known that Groupon requires that you discount your product or service by up to 50% and expect fees of 20%-60% of your revenue.  In most cases, this may drive one-time, bargain-shoppers into your office at a MAJOR expense to you.  Don’t reduce your margin so significantly for so little return!  Your loss is their gain.

Not knowing your numbers.

When you do a marketing campaign, do you understand your ROI?  In our recent 2017 annual survey, 91% of our participants stated that word of mouth was a major source of patient acquisition.  However, 49% said that they still used traditional mediums such as radio, TV, and direct mail.  For every campaign, do you understand your cost vs. your anticipated and/or actual results?  How are you tracking consults and conversions (or are you)?  Each of these questions are critical to understanding where your marketing dollars are most effective.  Within our network, we’ve discovered that very little marketing spend is well thought out or lacks strategy backed by forecasted numbers, therefore a large amount of money is wasted on ineffective initiatives and those that produce zero ROI.  Keep a constant pulse on your marketing projects and associated numbers.  Educated marketing decisions can save you thousands and make you millions AND position you for maximum success!

Not knowing your numbers.

Yes, I did just repeat myself.  However, this is about your operating expenses and overall financial picture.  When you designed your business plan, you should have done several proformas or projections on your profitability.  In addition to your marketing dollars spent (see above), you should clearly understand your operational expenses (personnel, cost of goods, etc.). When someone comes in for a laser treatment, you should know exactly how much it costs you to operate that machine (consider consumable costs per patient) and perform that treatment (cost of personnel) and the revenue you’ll produce from that treatment.  Knowing these numbers will not only help you to avoid waste, but will also help you to identify your highest revenue and profit-producing treatments and services so you can focus your marketing dollars (see above) correctly!  Not knowing your numbers can quickly drain your bank account, giving you less flexibility to invest in new marketing, technologies and ways to differentiate yourself which essentially, is a bonus to your competitors!

Looking for help with your numbers?  MedResults Network is partnered with consultants who will review your financials and help you become more effective and efficient in the day to day operations of your business. Contact us at

LOCAL: Quick, Easy Photos at Clix! for $25

I think everyone knows by now I’m a proponent of individualistic photography – I want pictures that specifically reflect my kids personalities taken in artistic places like railroad tracks and abandoned buildings.

However, sometimes you just need to run in and get pictures made quickly for a gift or a grandparent requests a more "traditional” looking portrait. If you’re going that route, I would recommend Clix! We have used them on multiple occasions in the past and gotten great results – truly they’re as close to individualistic as you can get, but they have the option of doing the traditional studio portraits as well.

We had these taken when Weston was six months old. They truly did capture his little personality before it was near as evident as it is now.

And today you can get a portrait package with 1 8x10, 2 5x7, 2 3.5x5 and 4 wallets for just $25! You won’t beat that anywhere for this quality.

Coffee proves its medicinal value once again

Swedish researchers draw link between coffee drinking and reduced risk of MS

Following on from American research last year which showed that one to three cups of coffee a day appeared to reduce the likelihood of an early death over a 30 year period by as much as 9% compared to a non-coffee drinker, new research out of Sweden adds another unexpected health benefit to coffee consumption.

Previous studies have suggested that regular coffee drinking can reduce the risk of heart attacks, liver disease and melanoma.

So far scientists have been at a loss to understand why coffee may even be a factor in these conditions.

Now a link has been identified specifically to the onset of multiple sclerosis, a disease which attacks the nervous system and for which there is as yet no cure.

Researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden looked into the lifestyles of 2,779 MS sufferers and 3,960 people who were free of MS.

They found that, although no direct causal link was apparent, those who drank coffee at a high level (more than four cups a day) were 29% less likely to develop the condition.

Scientists have speculated that caffeine may produce some sort of protective barrier around the brain and central nervous system, but admit that further research would be necessary to actually identify a genuine relationship between the level of coffee intake and vulnerability to MS.

In the meantime you can continue to enjoy your coffee in the certain knowledge that, for some reason or other, a little of what you fancy can actually do you good.

Marilyn Manson releases “SAY10” music video featuring Johnny Depp

Band: Marilyn Manson
Song: “SAY10”
Album: Heaven Upside Down
Release Date: October 6th, 2017
Label: Loma Vista Recordings

Manson said of the clip:

“After the the balloons have all shriveled up and are swallowed in the puddles of puke and idealism, don’t look to Me for sympathy. I am here to be all that I am accused of not being. And to be blamed for what you made Me.

The shots you will hear are from a mouth disguised as a gun. Don’t call this art. This is a hard cock in a room full of vampires and the music, man. The music is My foul blood on your faces.”

AAP supporters halted on way to Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit's home

Apr 02, 2013, 00:48 IST | Agencies

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) volunteers were stopped by police as they headed to Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit's house to deliver lakhs of letters protesting 'inflated water and power bills'.

Police stopped 272 auto-rickshaws at Bhairon Marg near Pragati Maidan in east Delhi carrying AAP volunteers, with Arvind Kejriwal’s supporters walking alongside.

Many of them carried Indian national flags and shouted anti-government slogans. “Delhi Police stopped us on Bhairon Marg near Pragati Maidan. They said they cannot allow so many auto-rickshaws and people to go to the chief minister’s residence.

Police said they would arrange four buses to ferry representatives who will hand over the letters to Dikshit,” said AAP spokesperson Aswathi Muralidharan.

The 272 auto-rickshaws represented the 272 municipal wards in Delhi.

Gaza celebrates victory as truce holds

Nov 23, 2012, 08:41 IST | Agencies

Gaza residents cleared rubble and claimed victory on Thursday, just hours after an Egyptian-brokered truce between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers ended the worst cross-border fighting in four years.

The ceasefire announcement had set off frenzied street celebrations in the coastal strip, and raised hopes of a new era in relations between Israel and Hamas.

The two sides are now to negotiate a deal that would open the borders of the blockaded Palestinian territory. “Today is different, the morning coffee tastes different and I feel we are off to a new start,” said Ashraf Diaa, a 38-year-old engineer from Gaza City.

And after the ceasefire was announced, Hamas claimed victory. “The masses that took to the streets last night to celebrate sent a message to all the world that Gaza can’t be defeated,” said a spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhri.

High Resolution Andromeda Galaxy – Messier 31

by , under Galaxies

The Andromeda Galaxy has been one of my favorite pursuits since I started with astrophotography. It took me a while to figure out how to shoot it and each telescope you use reveals different things about the galaxy. I took this photo of Andromeda Friday night using a 14.5 inch  RC and full format CCD. Andromeda is still too big to fit completely in this field of view, but I think we are getting about 75% of it. For reference, this is the same setup I used on the blue moon, so yes, Andromeda is bigger than the full moon in the night sky. Its just dimmer and harder to see with the naked eye. Imagine what it would be like to look up in the sky and see something like this.

The Great Andromeda Galaxy in High Resolution – September 7th, 2012

Click the picture above for a [2400×2400] version or download a super high res [3700×3700] version of Andromeda here.

For comparison purposes, here are some past photos I’ve taken of Andromeda: Andromeda with a FLT 98 wide field telescope and SBIG ST8300 CCD in September 2011, Andromeda with FLT 98 and DSLR Camera in September 2010, the first picture I ever took of Andromeda with a Celestron CPC1100 and DSLR in January 2010 and of course the telescopic Bolide with Andromeda picture from July 2009.

The story proceeds regardless of the player's "success" at the mini-games, and some games (eg. shaving or avoiding the feminist criticism, dodging ♀ symbols being shot from feminine lips) recur on different levels, paired with modified and, ultimately, more hopeful messages.

The word "dysphoria" evoked phonetically by this game's title is Greek, evoking a feeling of fundamental wrongness. It is the opposite of "euphoria".

The subject of the game seems cutting-edge, but within the electronic game industry there were numerous precedents at the ground floor, dating back to Danielle Bunten Berry of M.U.L.E. fame, Jamie Fenton who wrote Gorf and Rebecca Heineman who was elbow-deep in the programming of numerous early Interplay hits.

In this game, based on popular Nickelodeon comics, you control three monsters: Ickis, Oblina, and Krumm. The Gromble, a headmaster in monster school, needs you to perform the final test - monster Midterm Exam - in order to prove yourselves to be real monsters. You should collect trash, throw it on people, and scare them!

This is a platform game, where you control three characters. Each one of them has a special move that is often used to solve puzzles and overcome obstacles: Ickis can fly for a short time, Oblina can reach high ledges, and Krumm can scan off-screen areas. They can also collect monster books, that will teach them to scare people. Help the three monsters to graduate!

Aurorae Yoga Review

Have you ever heard of Aurorae Yoga they have some of the best items for yoga training. They have everything from yoga mats, apparel, accessories. The yoga mats come in all different colors and are very strong and very thick. I was able to review the blank yoga mat in blank. And I absolutely love it I use it during my new workout program called ddp yoga. It feels great it's not hard at all and very comfortable to lay on.

About the Yoga Mat:

Another product I was able to review is their Ultimate Women Yoga Pants in black. These pants are so comfortable and are so soft against skin besides me just wearing these for my workouts. I use these to sleep in also they are very cooling even for them being yoga pants I am never hot in them. And a plus black goes with everything. These pants retail for $42.99

URA impounds 100 smuggled vehicles

URA officials inspect some of the ve

URA officials inspect some of the vehicles that were impounded.

KAMPALA- Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) has impounded 101 vehicles that were smuggled into Uganda from the US, South Sudan and Kenya.

URA’s assistant Commissioner for Corporate Services, Mr Vincent Sseruma, said the impounded vehicles were smuggled into the country disguised as vehicles belonging to non-government organisations, diplomats or foreign visitors.

Mr Sseruma explained that 51 of the impounded vehicles were smuggled into the country by tax evaders or relatives of Ugandans working in foreign countries, whereas 28 were found with unauthorised drivers.

“Some people come here claiming they are visitors for about three months and therefore, their vehicles are not taxed. Some of these people have stayed beyond the specified period and we have impounded the vehicles so that the owners pay taxes,” Mr Sseruma said.

Mr Sseruma said URA has so far collected Shs100 million from owners of  vehicles that had been sneaked to the country especially luxury Range Rover cars. He said the taxi body has collected Shs50 million from 18 vehicles found with unauthorised drivers.

Mr Abel Kagumire, URA’s  Manager Enforcement Operations, said they have seized four containers of rice valued at Shs206 million, seven containers of acid batteries valued Shs210 million, 17 metric tonnes of micro wax from Alpha Wax Company in Netherlands valued Shs64.5 million, 1500pcs of tyres, and 160 tonnes of NPK fertilizers valued Shs677 million.

He said  the owners fraudulently imported a consignment of NPK fertilizers from Van Iperen International in Netherlands by creating an email address similar to the legitimate buyer Whitchem Stores Uganda which they used to engage the supplier thus making him believe he was dealing with the genuine Whitchem Ltd, a UK company.

“This was how the original importation documents ended up landing into the hands of the fraudster. The preceding documents from Kenya all read Whitchem Stores Uganda. On arrival, the fraudster used a one  Decenta Namaalwa, who registered with URA trading as Whitchem Stores in Uganda to claim the goods,” Mr Kagumire said.

Another fraudster identified as Anthony Johnson claiming to be from CJP Chemicals Pty Ltd in South Africa imported nine 12 x20ft containers of micro wax from Alpha Wax Netherlands. After learning about the fraudulent deal, the Netherlands Embassy complained to URA to recover the goods. URA responded and seized the containers which are being kept at Speedag Interfreight in Nakawa. However, the suspects are still at large.

Mr Sseruma added that similar tricks were used by Tropea Import and Export Corp Limited, which fraudulently imported acid batteries from Shuangdeng Group Co Ltd China.

On arrival, the consignment was cleared by Kasirye Freighters Limited and warehoused at Bolore Bond. The consignment owners did not pay the exporter but proceeded to acquire change of goods ownership from Tropea General Import and Export Corp Ltd to David Mitanda Bakalemeso.

“The exporter who flew in the country requested Interpol to prevent the clearance of goods. The matter was referred to intelligence for investigation to stop clearance of goods. URA recovered the goods and they are being kept at Bolore Bond. We are now looking for suspects,” Mr Sseruma said.

Qingdaoa, a Chinese tyre exporting company was also defrauded 1,500 tyres by fraudsters using the name of Tyre Express Valse Investments Uganda. The deal was struck by Joweria Nagujja and Solomon Waligo. When the goods arrived at Dar-Salaam Port, Tyre Express (U) Ltd was contacted by the supplier to receive the goods. But since they had not made any order, they suspected a fraudulent transaction and reported to URA. URA acted by stopping clearance of goods which were taken to the Customs Warehouse Nakawa as they wait for supplier to follow up the matter.

Pedestrian Safety Statistics

Children are at an increased risk for pedestrian injury and death because traffic rules and risks often exceed their cognitive, developmental, behavioral, physical, and sensory abilities, according to the National SAFE KIDS Campaign. In addition, parents and caregivers often overestimate their child's traffic skills. Pedestrian injuries remain the second leading cause of unintentional injury-related death among children ages five to fourteen.

Safety Tips

Preventing Injuries to Child Pedestrians

Parents are the most important models of proper pedestrian behavior for children.

  • Children under the age of ten should not be allowed to cross the street by themselves.
  • Cross streets safely. Cross at a corner, using traffic signals and crosswalks. Try to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them. Don't assume that because you can see the driver, the driver can see you. Look left, right and left again when crossing, and keep looking as you cross.Child Pedestrian Safety - child in front of mailbox waiting for bus
  • Teach children to recognize pedestrian crossing signals but not to rely on them. Before crossing, children should also be sure the traffic has stopped. Remind them to continue across if the light changes to "Don't Walk" while they are in the crosswalk.
  • Walk on sidewalks or paths. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible.
  • Be a safe pedestrian around cars. Watch for cars that are turning or backing up. Parents and children should hold hands in parking lots.
  • Remind your children to be extra alert in bad weather. Visibility might be poor and motorists might not be able to see them or to stop quickly enough.
  • At dawn and dusk, children should wear reflective clothing and carry flashlights.
  • Children should wait for adults on the same side of the street where the school bus loads and unloads students.
  • Teach children to cross the street at least 10 feet in front of a school bus.

Set pedestrian safety rules for your children.

  • Never allow children under age 10 to cross streets alone. Adult supervision is essential until you are sure a child has good traffic skills and judgment.
  • Children should walk on direct routes with the fewest street crossings.
  • Make sure children know to cross 10 feet in front of a school bus, never behind, and to wait for adults on the same side of the street as the school bus loading or unloading zone.
  • Teach your child never to run out into a street for a ball, a pet or any other reason.

Help create an environment that's safe for pedestrians.

  • Make sure your child plays in safe places away from motor vehicles, such as yards, parks and playgrounds - never in the street. Fence off play areas from driveways and streets.
  • Buy clothing and accessories incorporating reflective materials for your family to wear at dawn and dusk, in the evening and during other low-light situations, such as rainy or foggy weather.
  • Check frequently for children when backing out of a driveway or a parking space.

Follow the same rules that you want your child to follow. Be a good "road" model by obeying traffic signals and markings. Even if your children aren't with you, someone else's children may follow your example.

Stoner holds lead on home soil

Stoner holds lead on home soil

Casey Stoner lapped over half a second quicker than the MotoGP field for the third practice session at the Iveco Australian Grand Prix, with Lorenzo and Pedrosa the only two within one second of the leader.

The Repsol Honda rider led the third practice session of the weekend at Phillip Island, just as he did the previous two on Friday, lapping 0.640s ahead to his closest challenger, Jorge Lorenzo (Yamaha Factory Racing), with a best lap of 1’30.550.

Cooler temperatures and an increase in wind marked the Saturday morning outing, with only Repsol man Dani Pedrosa able to improve on his lap times from the day before, setting a 1’31.465 to rank the Spaniard third for the morning.

Marco Simoncelli (San Carlo Honda Gresini Team) crashed in turn ten for the third time this weekend, and again was able to quickly return to the track, posting the fourth quickest time ahead of Ben Spies (Yamaha Factory Racing) by a margin of 0.066s.

Andrea Dovizioso (Repsol Honda) was again sixth in the field, his time of 1’31.791 was two tenths behind his best time of Friday, while Randy de Puniet (Pramac Racing) followed in seventh with a 1’32.162.

Álvaro Bautista (Rizla Suzuki), Nicky Hayden (Ducati Team) and Colin Edwards (Monster Yamaha Tech 3) completed the top ten, with Valentino Rossi (Ducati Team) circulating down in 12th.

Replacement rider for Héctor Barberá (Mapfre Aspar), Aussie Damien Cudlin had a crash in turn two early in the session and was taken to the medical center to treat a superficial wound to his hip.

Kate Winslet will Rock a Sleepy Town in "The Dressmaker"

Saturday, October 17, 2015

Based on the wickedly hilarious and couture-filled book of the same title by Rosalie Ham, “The Dressmaker” is set at 1951 in a town called Dungatar, a one-horse town deep in the wheat belt of south-east Australia. The sleepy town of Dungatar is suddenly alarmed at the return of Tilly Dunnage (Academy Award winner Kate Winslet), a beautiful, talented misfit, who’s been working as a dressmaker in France for the great haute couture designers, who returns home to Dungatar. After 20 years away, Tilly has been driven back by a recent tragedy, to do two things – look after her ailing, eccentric mother Molly (Judy Davis), and right the wrongs of the past that continue to haunt her. Tilly Dunnage has revenge in her heart.

Tilly feels instinctively that she was wronged as a child, but she also feels cursed and can’t clearly remember what happened. The Dungatarians are drawn in by Tilly’s bewitching skills of transformation, and one by one, she extracts from them the information necessary to piece the truth together. The extraordinary gowns she creates become her means for revenge against those who did her wrong. There’ll be a price for looking this good.

Along the way Tilly bares her heart and against her better judgement falls in love with local football hero, Teddy McSwiney (Liam Hemsworth). Most importantly, she forms an initially volatile but finally tender reconciliation with her mother Molly.

Director Jocelyn Moorhouse says: “A designer friend of mine once said to me, couture is a weapon and that stuck with me. I like the idea of a woman being able to use her skills at designing extraordinary clothes that can transform the people wearing them, and to use that as a weapon against those people.

Clothes are crucial to “The Dressmaker” – costuming is key to any film, but here it takes on a profound level of importance. Rosalie Ham had the clothes close in mind when writing the source book: “Clothes as a disguise, something to cover the flaws of your body, was what I wanted to explore, but in this case, it exacerbates the flaws in the people - things like vanity and jealousy - and so it all came from that.

Fashion in “The Dressmaker” is about disguise. Tilly Dunnage takes advantage of the women in the town and appeals to their sense of competition and vanity. The women of Dungatar haven’t looked or felt good for a very long time, so it’s a way of luring people and giving them a false sense of hope. Tilly simply gives them enough rope – or ribbon – to hang themselves with. She lets them “bring themselves unstitched”, as Rosalie puns.

Kate Winslet says: “Tilly has trained as a couture dressmaker in France with Balenciaga and Dior and Madame Vionnet. The Dungatarians don’t really understand quite how magical and beautiful her creations truly are, they think it’s ‘dress up’. It’s kind of a gift that she’s giving them, as well as carrying out little bits of revenge along the way. They go from looking pale and a bit tea stained to looking like they’re all walking down a red carpet. It’s really quite striking.

The post war 1950s were a time in which fashion had two competing movements - Christian Dior created ‘the new look’ in 1947, which took women back a little bit to the corset and the cinched waist. Madame Vionnet and Balenciaga were both couturiers who didn’t use artifice, they used what was already there and the way fabric was draped on the body to enhance the good qualities and disguise the bad.

Rosalie Ham says: “I wanted to make the distinction between those two things in The Dressmaker. You can be feminine and beautiful but you don’t have to wear a corset or alter yourself particularly to be able to do that.

Check out Kate Winslet’s runway-worthy creations in “The Dressmaker” when it opens November 4, 2015 in Philippine cinemas, nationwide from Axinite Digicinema. Below is the full movie trailer for "The Dressmaker".

Jackass: The Movie Details

Johnny Knoxville and his crew of fun-loving masochists bring their routines to the big screen in this feature adaptation of the popular but controversial MTV series Jackass. A crew of young men perform a variety of strange, painful, and often humiliating stunts for the amusement of themselves and those around them, including crawling across dozens of mousetraps while wearing rodent make-up, being rolled down bowling lanes on skateboards, racing in golf carts across an ancient driving range, giving themselves self-inflicted paper cuts, making snow cones out of urine, tightrope walking over live alligators, using uninstalled sanitary plumbing in a hardware store, terrifying Japanese pedestrians while wearing panda costumes, and much, much more. Johnny Knoxville, the show's creator and star, returns to head up this movie version of Jackass, along with series regulars Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn, Chris Pontius, Steve-O, Dave England, Jason "Wee Man" Acuna, Preston Lacy, Ehren McGhehey, and Brandon DiCamillo; Henry Rollins, Tony Hawk, and Spike Jonze are among the movie's guest stars. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Residents protest 64 percent sewer rate hike for BHV homeowners

SOUTH BRISTOL — The South Bristol Town Board Sept. 11 unanimously approved a sewer rate increase for Bristol Harbour Village homeowners of more than 64 percent. An average homeowner will see a jump from $504 to $893 a year in the sewer fee, according to the association representing the development’s 347 households.

It’s a rate hike villagers are ready to fight. Contending the increase is unjust, unfair and unreasonable — and a violation of rights — Bristol Harbour Village Association (BHVA) put the Town Board on notice it is prepared to file an Article 78 proceeding, challenging the decision in court.

“The South Bristol Town Board’s approval of this fee increase, we contend, was irrational, arbitrary, and capricious, and in violation of the rights of BHVA’s members to due process and equal protection, among other things, under the United States and New York Constitutions," stated PhillipsLytle LLP, the firm representing the association, in a Sept. 25 letter to the Bristol Sewage Disposal Corporation, owned by Todd and Laura Cook. The film noted that all BHVA members’ payments on or after Sept.12, 2017, of sewer fees charged by the corporation "are made under protest, until further notice.”

The proposed increase was controversial for months. Villagers objected to the dramatic spike in their sewer rate, along with a proposed 116 percent water rate hike. The water rate hike, involving the water works also owned by the Cooks, remains under review by the state Public Service Commission, which will have the final say.

Reached Monday, Town Supervisor Dan Marshall declined to comment citing the pending lawsuit. Messages left for Todd and Laura Cook were not returned.

Attorney Mark Moretti with PhillipsLytle LLP, in a Sept. 13 letter to Marshall, contended the Town Board passed the sewer rate increase “without sharing with the ratepayers the financial information that was apparently recently provided to the Town by the Cooks or the prior shareholders. Without this financial information, the ratepayers could not do a review nor could comment be made.”

Moretti further contended that the resolution to raise the rate was passed at a meeting “without reasonable notice, and some residents had been told that action on this application would probably be deferred until December.”

A number of issues are in play over the sewer rate hike. According to Moretti, who is also a Bristol Harbour Village resident, one major question is what happened to more than $300,000 “that magically disappeared.”

Those funds were built up with the collected payments of the ratepayers over a period of years, according to Chad Flansburg, partner with PhillipsLytle, in an Aug. 9 letter to Marshall, stating that asset “was on the books when the Sewer Corporation was owned by the prior owner and has disappeared when Mr and Mrs. Cook acquired the stock of the Sewer Corporation, and they now request funds in their rate case to replace that which has disappeared.”

Moretti said a Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) request was submitted to the town for a full accounting of the funds. The FOIL asks for all documents and other materials pertaining to the sewer rate hike. Included are agendas, minutes, and any transcripts or audio or visual recordings of Town Board meetings, along with all correspondences and other communications.

“Hopefully this will reveal some of the documents that have been cloaked in mystery,” said Moretti, who talked about the matter in a conference call with several Bristol Harbour Village residents who got together Monday at the village’s Community Center: Joe Kohler III; James Bachman, a former South Bristol Town Board member; John York, retired Livingston County sheriff; and Fred Sarkis, who founded Bristol Harbour in the late 1960s.

“We want this to be fair and equitable,” said Bachman.

The residents also demand transparency. “Too much has been going on behind closed doors,” said Moretti.

Also at issue: Who benefits from the rate hike? An expansion of the sewer district, which is under consideration, should not penalize ratepayers, according to the BHVA. On the contrary, adding ratepayers should lower rates, not generate a 64 percent rate hike, they contend.

The town should be scrutinizing these matters, they say, to ensure that the owners of the sewer corporation are not just acting in their own self-interest.

“The town should be on our side,” said Sarkis.

York said he recognizes the Cooks have made tremendous personal investment in Bristol Harbour. “They have spent millions of dollars of their own money to upgrade both the facilities and golf course which improve it for all of us living here,” York said. He added he recognizes the need for upgrades in the water and sewer systems.

“I just feel the rate increase proposals were too high and could have been better handled by open dialogue and an increase over time,” he said. “Now we are mandated by the town to comply with a 64 percent sewer increase for 5 years and a pending 116 percent increase in water.”

“We are not asking for anything unfair," added York. "Just reasonable and open accountability.”

This weekend I’ll be attending Long Beach Comic Expo on Saturday and Sunday. Below is my schedule of signings and panels!

Saturday February 28th, 2pm – 3pm Signing at the IDW Booth #604

Sunday March 1st, 10:30 to 12pm, Room S5, #MakeComics: PREVIEWS & the Direct Market panel. I’ll be discussing the importance of pre-ordering comics and how it affects comics sales with the hosts of Fanboy Comics’ Previews Party Podcast.

Sunday March 1st, 1pm – 2pm Signing at Livio Ramondelli’s table #C6

Since I don’t have a table if you see me on the show floor and want to say hi or get a book signed, I’ll be happy to stop and talk. See ya there!

SoS-Chaos-Cov-A-Chin-60ce5So do you ever have that dream where one of your professional heroes emails you and asks you to write a book for them? Well, a few months ago that dream came true for me when Gail Simone asked me to write the Chaos special for her upcoming Swords of Sorrow series. Of course, my head exploded, but once I gathered all the pieces I wrote a really cool and nonchalant response email as I secretly said “Yes, Yes, YES!!!”

Swords of Sorrow is a 6-issue event where Gail brings together the coolest heroes of the Dynamite Universe. There will also be special tie-in issues by awesome ladies like Marguerite Bennett, G.Willow Wilson, Erica Schultz, Leah Moore, Emma Beeby, Mikki Kendall, and Nancy A. Collins. I get to write the Chaos special with art by Mirka Andolfo which introduces the antagonists of Gail’s series, Chastity, Purgatori, Mistress Hel, and Bad Kitty. These ladies are deadly and totally out of f*cks to give. They will rip your heart out and smile as they show it you.

Check out the awesome cover by Joyce Chin to the right and check out the full Swords of Sorrow announcement here.

So excited!

Every year, over one million patients treated by MSF for malaria in 30 countries

Over one million people continue to die each year from malaria, even though simple and effective tools exist which have been proven to dramatically reduce the burden of this disease. Each year, MSF treats over a million malaria patients in 30 different countries.

“The fact that quick, effective diagnosis and treatment is now possible makes the continuing tragedy of malaria in the developing world all the more unacceptable.” said Dr. Martin De Smet, malaria expert with MSF. “The necessary tools to fight malaria have been developed and now need to be used and implemented on a wider scale.”

Where reliable microscopy is not available, MSF uses Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs). These require just a single drop of blood from a patient’s finger tip to diagnose the disease within fifteen minutes. RDTs ensure that a correct diagnosis is made, and have been shown by MSF to work in many different contexts including busy hospitals, remote health outposts, and by trained village malaria workers.

The medication MSF uses is artemisinin based combination therapy (ACT). These pills are the most effective medicine to treat malaria. They have low toxicity, few side effects and act rapidly against the parasite. If a patient is diagnosed early, it takes just three consecutive days of taking ACTs for the patient to be cured.

MSF also distributes bed nets that have been treated with insecticide to people most at risk from malaria including pregnant women and children under five years old. Through health promotion activities, MSF educates communities on how to correctly use and maintain their bed net to protect themselves from mosquitoes at night.

“Developed and developing countries need to be consistently committed to supporting the fight against malaria,” said De Smet. “On the occasion of World Malaria Day 2010, MSF highlights the need for all parties to stick to their commitments to ensure the scale up and implementation of RDTs, ACTs and bed nets in countries where malaria is endemic.”
