Alex and Dave will begin dating again, trying to "keep it cazsh." But since the last time these two got together did not end well, who knows how far the romance will get this time? While "the year of Penny" is over (and was less than "ahmahzing"), Penny will continue to date and might finally find a steady boyfriend. Brad, once the biggest breadwinner of the group, was fired from his job in last year's season finale. He'll turn to Max for tips on surviving underemployment. He'll try out a variety of jobs to make ends meet, including working on a bar mitzvah hype team with Max. Max will also keep looking for the right guy, but his road to romance won't be easy either, and even kind of dangerous when he develops a crush on a physical therapist -- with hilarious consequences for Penny.

I've been part of a trade-off. Following the closing of Carn Brea Methodist church most of the congregation joined in with St Euny church in Redruth.
That means that once a month they have a local preacher from the Methodist church who comes to do a service and the trade-off is that I get to be on the Methodist plan and going around the churches in the district at least once a month. This Sunday I had the delight of experiencing Camborne Wesley Church and although I was taking the 10:30 service, I was invited to drop in to the cafe church that preceded it.
I was are welcomed with a hug from of an old colleague that I had not seen for many years and escorted across the action to the serving table for some coffee. The local preacher leading it, a (young- compared with me) teacher called Nick, was effectively using laptop and projector for the structure of the service and providing accompaniment for the singing of worship songs are from Youtube. After a short talk interspersed with a clip from Youtube from an American speaker discussion points were posted up to enable the group to talk. Nick kindly sent me the link and questions which appear below.
Have we strayed from the church of the bible?
What's missing from the church of Acts nowadays?
Should we change our services/Change our hearts.
When was the last time you were awestruck to be a part of God's church?
What could you give to the church?
I'm afraid the American speaker did not really inspire me at all, I prefer my preaching live, but the questions are certainly of interest and some are probably those that are asked in churches of all denominations throughout the land in one way or another.
The question that instantly pricked my interest was should we change our services or change our hearts? My first thought was that this should not be an either or question, after all we can change both services and hearts just as we can change one of them without the other. And….. if you change hearts they might just want to change services….. or not!
I've now been a reader for 30 years and an active worship group and house group leader for half a dozen years longer than that and change is something with which I have wrestled more or less zealously for all of that time. I used to think that need to throw out the old staid services and replace them with lively, attractive, entertaining offerings that folk from outside the church would want to attend. These days I hope I'm a little more pragmatic and understanding of the needs of both those in the church and those outside. Let's delve a little more.
The service I lead on Sunday was in the chapel. There was a large projection screen on which I had my service and the words of the hymns of which two were reasonably modern and two were old but very singable and all had a theological content that was appropriate to the service. There was a good sized choir who, like the rest of the congregation, were mostly quite senior. There were a few children and would normally be more if it were not for café church first. Because Wesley is so large the congregation were quite spread out so it was hard to judge numbers but it seemed more than I have had elsewhere.
In the service I used prayers from the Iona community and the Northumbrian community but it pretty much followed a pattern of Anglican or Methodist morning worship interspersed with stories for children who left after second hymn and a sermon that was a little longer than I would preach in an Anglican setting. It seemed very well received and I found the experience both uplifting, energising and spirit lead. Just because the service did not use worship songs, a band and involve people losing themselves in the music did not mean that this service was any the less efficacious for the people there. Were the service to be changed radically to appeal to what our idea would be popular and then we might well run the risk of losing the good folk that we already have, and worse, we might even blame them for having hard hearts that won't change!
Somehow we have to do a balancing act even if it means having two or more congregations and I don't really see any problem with that anymore. The Church of England and the Methodist Church has a theologically broad membership who have different needs. Trying to please all of the people all of the time is an impossibility though you may certainly please some of the people some of the time and if you are very lucky, all of the people some of the time.
What do think about using YouTube clips as part of services?
Was there a question that stood out for you?
Are there any of the questions that irritate you?
The Church of England's Ministry Division is looking for an experienced lay minister…..

Ferrari can dominate F1 again - technical chief James Allison
By Andrew Benson Chief F1 writer
Ferrari won five consecutive titles in the early 2000s but have failed to match Red Bull in the last few seasons.
"I have found a team hungry and determined to get back to the top of the podium at every race and championship," said Allison.
"It is a team that is optimistic for the future and is looking forward to dominating the sport again."
Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso has finished second to Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel in three of the last four years, seasons which have been characterised by Ferrari's inability to build a car as fast as the Red Bull.
Allison, who was talking to Sky Italia, said Ferrari's form would improve as a result of "a series of investments made on the engineer, personnel and equipment side which we are going to reap the rewards of over the next several years".
Ferrari have spent this year refurbishing the wind tunnel at their Maranello base after discovering in 2012 that there were inconsistencies between the results from simulations and those of new parts when they reached the track.
That means the 2014 car has been largely developed in the former Toyota F1 wind tunnel in Cologne, which Ferrari have been using instead.
Now their own wind tunnel is up and running again, the team are hopeful that it will improve their ability to develop their car, a major flaw of Ferrari's over the last few years.
Allison, who joined Ferrari in September, said: "F1 is not a quick-fix sport. It is an incredibly difficult organisation to get every single aspect right, and you need every aspect right to win a world championship.
"The team has been one-by-one picking off its weak points. It's a work we will need to continue and a work we will never stop doing even once we do finally get ourselves back to the front.
"I don't think we have made any secret of the fact the area we have been underperforming in, relative to the completion, is we haven't made as much out of the aerodynamic rules over the last few seasons as some of our rivals.
"That's for a number of reasons and it's an area where our team has invested heavily over the last 18 months or so and we will eventually get our reward for."
Allison worked at Ferrari through their dominant era with Michael Schumacher in the early 2000s before moving back to the UK to work for Renault, where he won two titles with Alonso in 2005 and 2006, ending Ferrari's run of success.
In recent years, his reputation as one of the foremost aerodynamic engineers in F1 has grown as his group at the team now re-named Lotus has produced a series of competitive cars on much smaller budgets than Red Bull, Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes.
However, he said the extent of the rule changes for next season - which will see major changes to the chassis regulations and the introduction of new turbo-charged engines - meant it was impossible to predict Ferrari's competitiveness in 2014.
"I'm never happy because I'm always terrified. I find it much easier to work effectively when I'm scared we're not going enough, than happy that we are," he said. "(I'm) always scared, especially in a year with so many changes.
"2014 is a very big project and it's something that started well over two years ago, so that work was well under way when I arrived and is continuing extremely fiercely at the moment in the factory."
Between 1999 and 2008, Ferrari won seven constructors' titles and six drivers' championships, but have not added to their tally of 16 team and 15 driver titles since.

σημασία έχει ο δρόμος....
Ferrari being Ferrari
There are certain things one can rely on in life no matter what is happening elsewhere. The sun will always shine, men will always love motorsport and Ferrari will inevitably always be Ferrari.
Following on from a silly season full of stories of civil war and turmoil at Maranello it should not be a surprise to hear them up to their usual tricks. The dressing down Fernando has received from Il Padrino has not been left to rest and is certainly not forgotten by the Spaniard.
With quotes to the media in Brazil of "Second place is mine, certainly not Ferrari's" and "We started the season with great ambition, and thought we could fight for the title, we obviously couldn't, but i'm proud of what I achieved, second place in a car that is not the second fastest by far", his feeling towards 2013 are clear.
However, the most poignant one I feel is ""The reason why we failed? Why don't you ask Domenicali, because not being able to use the wind tunnel, again, didn't do us any good." So what is Alonso angling for here? Having clearly missed out on the possibility of another team for 2014, he is forced to put up with what he has at least for the short term.
It would seem he is footing the problems Ferrari have encountered at the door of Stefano Domenicali, with a possible replacement already waiting in the wings. The glory days he enjoyed at Renault were shared with one Flavio Briatore. For any who don't remember Briatore's last involvement in Formula One there is a short video explaining 'Crashgate' below.
[Briatore, on 5th January 2010, had his ban overturned]
Alonso could regain the control of the team which he is set to lose with the introduction of a team mate on equal terms to him, Kimi Raikkonen. Fernando could be changing tact, having not been offered an extension to his contract and Ferrari keeping Nico Hulkenberg on speed dial, the team must be feeling pretty safe driver wise.
A return of Briatore to Formula One would be hard for many to envisage, especially given he said he would never return to Formula One in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport. However, there is another team boss who is soon to be a free agent. Ross Brawn could want a return to Maranello where he would be well received to manage the strongest 2014 driver pairing on the grid.
Either way, Alonso is setting himself up well for next year by stirring the stew. If the car is poor, he can walk away easily citing the fact he stood by the team for so long. Alternatively, this could see the departure of Domenicali which could see an ally of his brought into the Ferrari setup instead. Should Alonso leave, he looks as if he wants to do it the hard way. The power struggles will continue long after Interlagos.
There is a long and cold winter ahead at Maranello!

Maranello, 26 November –Luca di Montezemolo gives an overview of the Formula 1 season that's just ended. At 8pm tonight (CET,) an interview the Ferrari President gave to RAI Uno's reporter Marco Franzelli will be broadcast. Here are a few samples of what he had to say, divided into the different topics.
The Alonso-Raikkonen pairing
"Whoever has the honour and responsibility of driving for Ferrari must think of the team first and foremost and not of himself. None of our drivers could ever hurt the other one. Alonso is maybe the strongest race driver I've ever met, even if it is always difficult to make comparisons with the past. We have taken Raikkonen back for his experience, for what he has done over the past two years and because he is much loved inside and outside the team. I was very pleased to see the enthusiasm that greeted the news of his return, again both internally and externally. I am sure they will help one another."

Interview to Mika Hakkinen thanks to Monica 92
http://sundayafternoonclub.blogs.topgear...-and-james-may/
And what of the partnership between his protégé Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso at Ferrari? He smiles. "I used to be close to Kimi, I directed him towards Ron Dennis and McLaren, so I know him a little. There's not going to be a problem [between Kimi and Fernando], believe me. They're both intelligent, experienced guys, and both understand that verbal fights won't help their careers or their lives. That is of course, unless something stupid happens on the track."

Nov.28 (GMM) Fernando Alonso has been banned from talking about Ferrari via his personal Twitter account.
The Spaniard had his ear "tweaked" by team president Luca di Montezemolo earlier this year, after making a series of disparaging remarks about the development of Ferrari's 2013 car.
"We will prohibit him from Twitter," Montezemolo reportedly said during his interview with Italian television Rai Uno this week.
"Although Alonso, like anyone else, can write on Twitter what he wants, everything concerning Ferrari will be communicated by Ferrari," he added.

#284 | RE: Scuderia Ferrari Mon Dec 09, 2013 9:59 am
Dec.9 (GMM/Inautonews.com) Fernando Alonso's frustration in 2013 triggered Ferrari's push for Kimi Raikkonen.
That is the view of the Italian team's former driver Mario Andretti.
"In my opinion, Alonso became frustrated this season, and what he said offended Ferrari," the 1978 world champion told the Spanish sports newspaper Marca.
Andretti is referring to the arguably disparaging comments made by the Spanish driver, after which Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo revealed he "tweaked" Alonso's ear.
"Otherwise," Andretti added, "they never would have hired someone who could challenge him and even beat him."
After four years alongside the often underperforming Felipe Massa, Alonso's new teammate for 2014 is the former team champion Kimi Raikkonen.
"You have to know how to behave," Andretti, still referring to Alonso's attitude of 2013, continued.
"He always had a proper behaviour, but that 1 per cent … we saw what was Montezemolo's reaction.
"It will be interesting to see what happens next," he added, "because Kimi is not arriving to help; he is going to try to win.
"It will be a great battle that will be fun to watch."

Throughout the season, Santa Cruz Warriors play-by-play announcer Kevin Danna and the warriors.com staff are teaming up to provide the latest on all things Santa Cruz Warriors and G League:
Preparing for a Second Half Push
The Santa Cruz Warriors are just past the midway point of the 2019-20 season, standing at 15-11 after winning nine of their last 12 games. Sixteen of the team's 24 remaining games are home matchups, including the March 14 game at Chase Center. Tied for first place in their division, the Sea Dubs are five games out of first place in the Western Conference and will need to finish the season strong if they want to maintain their current position and host a first round playoff matchup. A lot can happen over the next two months, especially in the unpredictable environment that is the G League, but one can say with near absolute certainty that a lot of meaningful basketball will be played in Surf City in the coming weeks, and that includes the current six-game homestand.
For whatever reason, the home confines haven't been all that friendly for the Sea Dubs this season. The squad is just 4-6 at home this season, but have gone 11-5 on the road. Scheduling challenges, tired legs, lack of focus; whatever it is, the Santa Cruz Warriors just haven't gotten the job done at home so far. At the same time, they've had just 10 home games this season and will certainly have a chance to get that home court advantage back during a home-heavy closing stretch of the season.
And for what it's worth, that 11-5 road record shouldn't be dismissed. That's pretty impressive for any professional team, especially one who sees so much roster turnover over the course of a season. Or, as Sea Dubs broadcaster Kevin Danna put it, "Down the stretch of close games on the road, this team is money."
Golden State Players Playing in Santa Cruz
Synergy between the Golden State and Santa Cruz Warriors has always been intentional, but this year more than any other since the G League squad relocated to Santa Cruz in 2012, the developmental nature of the G League has been on full display. Three Warriors players – Alen Smailagic, Jordan Poole and Ky Bowman – have played for the Sea Dubs this season, and a fourth, Jacob Evans, will take the floor tonight in Santa Cruz.
Alen Smailagic – Already a fan favorite in both the Golden State and Santa Cruz versions of Dub Nation, the 19-year-old forward has only had a chance to play in one game since being transferred to Santa Cruz on Jan. 17, as the Sea Dubs are ending a five-day game-less drought tonight. But in that one game, he was certainly a difference maker, putting up 20 points and seven boards on 8-for-13 shooting. The 2019 second round draft selection plays without fear and has averaged 17.1 points in under 26 minutes a game with the Sea Dubs. After playing nine games with the NBA Dubs, Smailagic figures to get much more playing time in Santa Cruz.
Jordan Poole – It was a brief stint for Poole in the G League, but boy was it a meaningful one. After starting the season off slow and struggling to find his shot with Golden State, the Dubs' 2019 first round draft selection played three games with Santa Cruz and instantly made a contribution. He keyed a fourth quarter comeback with some big shots in his first game with the Sea Dubs and averaged 26 points a game over three games in the G League. That small sample size certainly made the difference when he re-joined the Golden State Warriors, recently going four straight games with double digit scoring efforts, including a 21-point game in the Dubs' win over Orlando on Saturday.
Ky Bowman – If there is one stat that is indicative of the two-way player's time with the Sea Dubs, it's this: The Santa Cruz Warriors are 6-1 when Bowman plays for them. Bowman has brought the same energy and effort that he played with in Golden State to Santa Cruz, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 assists and 6.3 rebounds a game. His 3-point shot has been a little inconsistent, but he did go 3-for-5 from distance in a recent game, which is a good sign for the young guard.
Jacob Evans – The second-year pro spent his rookie season between Golden State and Santa Cruz, and tonight will mark his season debut with the Sea Dubs. This season, Evans has been slowed down by injuries, most recently suffering a concussion and broken nose in the Jan. 14 game against Dallas. He played in one game with Golden State since that injury, so this G League assignment could give him a chance to get some extended playing time, even if it's just for a few games. A short stint in Santa Cruz worked wonders for Poole, here's hoping that can happen again with Evans.
The Continuing Growth of the G League
The G League has proven that it's much more than a place for a young player who is not getting any burn at the NBA level some playing time. By the same token, a G League assignment for an NBA player isn't necessarily a demotion, rather it is an opportunity for development that can lead to meaningful contributions for their parent NBA club. This year's Warriors have multiple examples of that. Now, it's not unusual for injured NBA stars to practice with a G League team before returning to the NBA – see DeMarcus Cousins last year with Santa Cruz or more recently Victor Oladipo with Fort Wayne, perhaps hinting at a day in the not-so-distant future that an NBA player working his way back from injury plays his first game(s) in the G League.
Another sign of G League growth? The league is expanding to Mexico. Capitanes, a pro team out of Mexico City, will compete in the G League starting in the 2020-21 season, bringing the G League to 29 teams. One of the key features of the G League is to be a testing environment for the NBA, and depending how things go with Captanes could potentially influence NBA expansion in Mexico.
A Few More Notes
Player movement is part of the cultural fabric of the G League. Devyn Marble, who played with Golden State during the preseason, was a steady contributor for the Santa Cruz Warriors to start the season but has since signed a contract to play professionally in Italy. That follows Oakland native Jared Cunningham's lead, who earlier this season signed with the Shanghai Sharks of the Chine Basketball Association. The international departures, along with Golden State players coming in and out of Santa Cruz, has left the Sea Dubs with as few as nine players for some games, something those following Golden State have become all too familiar with.

Amicus Therapeutics Announces Positive Preliminary Data from Phase 1/2 Study of Novel Treatment Paradigm for Pompe Disease
by United Pompe | Dec 8, 2016 | News | 0 comments
Amicus Therapeutics Announces Positive Preliminary Data from Phase 1/2 Study of
Novel Treatment Paradigm for Pompe Disease
ATB200/AT2221 Safety Data Show No Infusion-Associated Reactions Following 100+ Infusions Clinical Pharmacokinetic (PK) Profile as Predicted Based on Previously Reported Preclinical Data Biomarkers of Muscle Damage are Generally Stable or Trending Towards Improvement Conference Call at 8:30am ET
CRANBURY, N.J., Dec. 08, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amicus Therapeutics (Nasdaq:FOLD), a global biotechnology company at the forefront of rare and orphan diseases, today announced positive preliminary data from a global Phase 1/2 study (ATB200-02) to investigate ATB200/AT2221. ATB200/AT2221 is a novel treatment paradigm that consists of ATB200, a unique recombinant human acid alpha-glucosidase (rhGAA) enzyme with optimized carbohydrate structures, particularly mannose-6 phosphate (M6P), to enhance uptake, co-administered with AT2221, a pharmacological chaperone.
ATB200-02 Study – Design and Objectives
Š Primary objectives: to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of
ATB200/AT2221
Š Study duration: 18-week primary treatment period with all patients eligible for a long-term extension
Š Patient cohorts: ambulatory ERT-switch patients (Cohort 1), non-ambulatory ERT-switch patients (Cohort 2) and
ERT-naïve patients (Cohort 3). Enrolling up to ~20 total patients across all cohorts.
Š Preliminary data now available:
» Safety data for nine patients through interim data analysis (maximum 24 weeks)
» PK and PD (muscle biomarker) data through Week 14 for four patients in Cohort 1
ATB200-02 Study – Preliminary Data Highlights in Initial ERT-Switch Patients
Š ATB200/AT2221 safety measures (n=9) showed:
» No serious adverse events (SAEs)
» AEs were generally mild and transient
Š To date, ATB200/AT2221 has shown no infusion-associated reactions following 100+ infusions
Š Clinical PK profile through Week 14 was as predicted based on previously reported preclinical data (n=4).
» ATB200 plasma clearance suggests optimized carbohydrate structure provides efficient uptake into tissues
» ATB200 alone showed greater than dose-proportional increases in exposure, which was further enhanced with the addition of the chaperone AT2221
Š Biomarkers of muscle damage were trending toward improvement or stable through Week 14 (n=4)
» Biomarkers of muscle damage (creatine kinase (CK) enzyme, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST)) in the initial four ERT-switch patients showed early trends toward improvement in two patients and were stable in the other two patients.
"We set out on this journey in Pompe disease at Amicus with the intent to develop a new treatment paradigm," said John F. Crowley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. "These preliminary results, while still early, give us greater confidence that we are developing a drug regimen that may be highly differentiated from any other approach. Even at this interim analysis, it is very encouraging to see no infusion-associated reactions in these initial patients, as well as the desired PK profile and improvements in key muscle damage biomarkers in two of four patients. We have much more work to do to generate additional important data in the months ahead but this is an excellent foundation for this program and for persons living with this devastating disorder."Barry Byrne, M.D., Ph.D., Professor, Pediatrics and Molecular Genetics & Microbiology and Director, University of Florida Powell Center, stated, "As a lead investigator in the ATB200-02 study, I have had a positive initial experience with the novel Amicus treatment regimen for Pompe. Elevated levels of CK, ALT and AST indicate damage to muscle tissue in patients with Pompe disease. A reduction in markers of muscle damage, such as CK, ALT, and AST in patients with Pompe disease is very encouraging, especially with favorable safety and tolerability. If these positive trends continue, ATB200/AT2221 may help to address the significant unmet need among Pompe patients. I look forward to seeing additional data from this clinical study."

About ATB200/AT2221
ATB200/AT2221 is a novel treatment paradigm that consists of ATB200, a unique recombinant human acid alpha- glucosidase (rhGAA) enzyme with optimized carbohydrate structures, particularly mannose-6 phosphate (M6P), to enhance uptake, co-administered with AT2221, a pharmacological chaperone. In preclinical studies, ATB200 was associated with increased tissue enzyme levels and reduced glycogen levels in muscle, which was further improved when AT2221 was co- administered with ATB200. Amicus Therapeutics is currently conducting a global Phase 1/2 study (ATB200-02) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of ATB200/AT2221.
About Pompe Disease
Pompe disease is an inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of an enzyme called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Reduced or absent levels of GAA lead to the accumulation of the substrate glycogen in the lysosomes of muscles and other tissues. Progressive accumulation of glycogen is believed to lead to the morbidity and mortality associated with Pompe disease, including muscle weakness and respiratory insufficiency.

Application of Honey (Feng Mi) TuiNa in the Treatment of Cough and Wheezing
HONEY MASSAGE, mm-mm-mm it sounds so delicious. You probably imagine a luxurious SPA pampering, but in reality it is far from simple pleasure. Honey TuiNa is another wonderful tool to help your most difficult patients with lowered immune function suffering from hard to treat chronic non-specific or antibiotic resistant respiratory diseases. The history of the use of honey parallels the history of man. In virtually every culture evidences can be found of its use as a food source and as a symbol employed in religious, magical, and therapeutic ceremonies. The ancient Egyptians used honey as an embalming material. Hippocrates cured skin disorders with honey. The philosopher Democritus, who lived to the ripe old age of 110 years, used to say that for health preservation "viscera should be moistened by honey and skin by oil". Avicenna said: "if you want to preserve health – you must use honey". The Romans used it in cosmetic preparations. Chinese Medicine has used honey (Feng Mi) for many millennia as an essential part of their Materia Medica with wide applications.
The history of honey is extremely rich in ancient Russia. In the 12th century a manuscript titled "About Honey" with hundreds of medicinal recipes was published by Duchess Evlampia, the grand-daughter of the famous Russian King Vladimir Monomah. Until the early 20th century honey was considered an official medical remedy, and was actively prescribed by family physicians. Even as recently as World War I, doctors treated wounds with honey. With the advent of antibiotics honey fell out of use for its healing properties, but scientific research is now rediscovering honey's natural healing power. Definition: According to the Codex Alimentarius (1989): Honey is the natural sweet substance produced by honeybees (Apis Mellifera) from the nectar of blossoms or from the secretion of living parts of plants or excretions of plant sucking insects on the living parts of plants, which honeybees collect, transform, and combine with specific substances of their own, store and leave in the honey comb to ripen and mature.
Honey is a thick, viscous, syrupy, yellowish or yellow-brown fluid, clear when fresh, but losing its translucence with age and depositing crystals. It has an intensely sweet, feebly acrid taste, and a distinctive odor. There are more than 300 types of honey, varying in flavor and color (from pale yellow to dark amber), depending on the type of blossoms visited by the honeybee. Some of the most commonly produced types of honey in the United States are alfalfa, orange blossom, clover, buckwheat, and tupelo.
Principal Constituents: Laevulose (fruit sugar) 36%, dextrose (grape sugar or glucose) 32%, and sucrose (cane sugar) 2%, maltose (malt sugar) 8%, mineral salts 2%, hydrogen peroxide, phenolics, flavonoids, terpenes, vitamins, microelements, and anti-bacterial substances. Properties: Antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory. Honey works due to its sugar content, low protein composition, and by osmosis. Honey acts as a natural antibiotic that limits the growth of bacteria. Honey promotes tissue regeneration due to its high vitamin and microelement content.The value of honey differs by diastase number (quantity of enzymes per unit of volume). This allows measuring the effectiveness of biological activity of honey. The highest diastase number is found in honey manufactured at northern latitudes with harsh climates. For example: southern honey has a diastase number of 5 to 9, while northern honey has a diastase number of 30 to 50. In this diastase number range, northern honey is not just a food but a drug. The only type of honey shown to be effective in treatment is crude unprocessed honey. Properties of Feng Mi in Chinese medicine: sweet in flavor, neutral in nature, enters the Lung, Spleen and Large Intestine channels. Actions: strengthens middle-jiao, relieves spasm, alleviates pain, moistens Lung to arrest cough, moistening dryness and relaxing the bowel to relieve constipation. Indicated for gastric pain, consumptive diseases, lingering cough, dryness in the bowels and constipation, and for the elderly and those patients with weakened body resistance due to chronic diseases. According to "Compendium of Materia Medica," by Li Shi Zhen, honey can help dispel pathogenic heat, clear away toxins, nourish yin and strengthen the spleen.
Contraindications: Allergies to bee products!!! Open form of TB, lung cancer, congestive heart failure, kidney failure, general high fever, fragile capillaries, hemorrhages, advance osteoporosis, and all contraindications that apply to circulatory massage. Indications of Honey TuiNa: To relieve cough, facilitate expectoration, moisten lung, clear toxins, reduce edema, and strengthen immune function in the treatment respiratory system diseases characterized by cough and wheezing.
Chinese Differential Diagnosis according to Zang Fu Syndromes:
a. Cough and wheezing with hard to expectorate mucus d/t Wind-Cold with internal Heat, Wind-Heat, Lung-Heat, Phlegm-Heat, Liver Qi Stagnation damaging the Lungs, Liver Fire invading Lung, Lung and Kidney Yin Deficiency are treated with combination of Honey TuiNa and Inhalation.
b. Cough and wheezing with easy to expectorate profuse mucus d/t Wind-Cold with Phlegm Fluids, Phlegm-Damp, Lung and Spleen Yang Deficiency are treated with Honey TuiNa without Inhalation.
c. Cough and wheezing without mucus or with red blood expectoration d/t Warm-Dryness, Cool-Dryness, Lung Qi, and Blood Stasis are contraindicated for treatment with Honey TuiNa. Technique of Honey TuiNa: due to breathing difficulties perform while patient is seated.
1st step – prepare inhalation using a steam inhaler, with a solution consisting of 1 table spoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of baking soda and 20 drops of eucalyptus essential oil in distilled or mineral water. Allow the patient to inhale the steam for 20 minutes.
2nd step – using Ca (rubbing) method massage abdominal, intercostals, SCM and scalene muscles and entire back with no lubricant for 3-4 minutes.
3rd step – warm up 1 table spoon of solid variety of honey in your palms, distribute on the patient's back using palm An (pressing), follow with Pai (patting) and continue with palm Ji (beating), repeat the sequence with alternating rhythm on entire back focusing on lungs region.
4th step – wipe the residue from the back with a moist, hot towel.
5th step – cover patient with a blanket. Offer a cup of warm herbal tea appropriate to Chinese differential diagnosis with a teaspoon of honey. Let the patient rest for at least 10 minutes before letting them leave.
Because honey is extremely potent, honey TuiNa should not be administered more than five times every other day. A patient should perform inhalation at home every evening up to ten times. Summary: Tested for millennia folk therapy shouldn't be forgotten in our modern age of synthetic drugs and quick fix strategies. Recent research underlines the scientific basis for honey therapy utilizing its antibacterial properties working even for the most antibiotic resistant strains of microbes. Honey can be successfully used to treat many disorders and for enhancement of well-being. Resources: P.I. Filippov, V.P. Filippova, 2003, "Honey and other bee products in diet and medicine"

There is a quiet revolution stirring in our food system. It is not happening so much on the distant farms that still provide us with the majority of our food; it is happening in cities, neighborhoods, and towns. It has evolved out of the basic need that every person has to know their food, and to have some sense of control over its safety and security.
Nutrition makes a difference. Neighborhood farms grow food for many who would otherwise not have access to nutritious foods. This is a lifeline for many who want to stay healthy or regain their health. It brings all walks of life together because everybody eats.
The farms act as gathering places and outdoor classrooms.
Garden City Harvest not only reduces the chain from farm to plate by selling CSAs directly from the farm, but also grows food for 17 agencies, including the Missoula Food Bank, the Poverello, and all of Missoula's Youth Homes.
We employ over 30 people. We offer many volunteer jobs (around 450 each season) including internships, Food Corps, and more. Plus, if you volunteer with Garden City Harvest, you take home vegetables in return.
We grow healthy food for all, aiming to find ways for all Missoulians to have access. With a tight budget, healthy food is often the most flexible line item, replaced by higher calorie, packaged foods that cost less.
FARMacy – Working with St. Patrick Hospital & the VA MT Healthcare System, we have developed a growing program to give prescriptions to patients working to manage their diabetes, weight, and more.
Mobile Market – Youth Development teens harvest and sell veggies (nothing over a $1/lb!) to seniors and low income families at our Mobile Market farm stands. Traveling to the seniors and families, these youth bring joy, connection, and health to those who are often marginalized in our community.
Orchard Gardens Farm Stand – Sells food to Orchard Gardens residents offering EBT options and subsidized prices.
Our farms go the extra mile by installing solar panels, using water saving measures, incorporating habitat for wildlife and pollinators, building the soil and, of course, skipping the chemicals. Any new projects keep the environment and climate change in mind.

A 30-year mystery of how the molecular machinery works through an enzyme that makes a potent antibiotic was revealed by the scientists at Rutgers and universities in Russia, Poland, and England.
The findings, which appear in the journal Molecular Cell, provide the tools to design new antibiotics, anticancer drugs and other therapeutics.
The potent natural antibiotic, microcin B17, kills harmful E. coli bacteria. Microbial resistance to antibiotics- due to their overuse and misuse - is one of the biggest threats facing humanity, and there's an urgent need to find new drugs. Natural antibiotics that evolved over eons represent an attractive option to overcome resistance.
The scientists found that the enzyme triggers two chemical reactions that produce several chemical "cycles" required for antibacterial activity, according to senior author Konstantin Severinov, a principal investigator at the Waksman Institute of Microbiology and professor of molecular biology and biochemistry at Rutgers University-New Brunswick.
"Our research allows rational design of new peptide compounds that could become treatments ranging from antimicrobials to anticancer drugs," Severinov said. "There may be a trove of new antibiotics that could be made from peptides, using enzyme machines like McbBCD as a production tool."
The international team included scientists at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology in Russia; Russian Academy of Sciences in Russia; Jagiellonian University in Poland; John Innes Centre in England; and Lomonosov Moscow State University in Russia.


Okay, here's irony at work in a BIG way. I decided a while back that I would write this month's Blog about memory. And guess what? I forgot to print it out! Does that sound like cosmic interference?
I've been thinking a lot about memory lately. Probably because, at my age, memories take up a lot of my time.
The thing is the more I remember, the more I question the accuracy of memories – mine and everyone else's.
I have been working on the IDEA of memory quite a lot lately, probably inspired by a book I am reading called Pieces of Light by Charles Fernyhough.
Mr. Fernyhough suggests that "…when you have a memory you don't retrieve something that already exists, fully formed – you create something new." I find that idea fascinating, and acceptable.
For one thing, I have discovered that when I think back on shared experiences – like those of my children and me – I find we have amazingly different takes on the same subject. Mine being the correct oe of coruse.
Who said what and how he or she said it for example. Was the tone angry or perhaps teasing?
I (think) I remember, very clearly, having a discussion with my, by then adult, children, about an incident involving one of the boys and his father. He remembers it as a focused argument between himself and his Dad. The other kids said it wasn't that way at all, it was a general argument.
Well, he was right. The memory belongs to the person who owns it, but that doesn't mean it is exactly as it occurred.
One witness will swear that the man was a woman in disguise with red hair who limped, but another definitely remembers a heavy set black man. Probably an athlete. They are all working from well-intentioned memories of what they think they saw.
Chances are really good, that when you talk to them later, they will "remember" things a little differently. By then the possible witnesses are away from the excitement and possibly fear involved in – well – in being involved at all. So the atmosphere is different. The circumstances are different…their memories are different.
I can't speak for anyone but myself but I think I can admit that my memories are probably influenced by a bit of ego. In most of my clearest remembrances I behaved very well. And if I wasn't the bravest person on the scene, I was undoubtedly the cleverest or the most logical – or perhaps the kindest.
For example, I remember one time, rather long ago when I was back in Philadelphia, I noticed a very old and rather frail looking lady walking down the street carrying what seemed to be a really heavy bag of groceries. So I stopped my car and got out and asked her if I could drive her some place. She accepted, gratefully, and got into the car where she began a recital of the way she was mistreated by her thoughtless grand daughter who didn't seem to care that she, the grandmother, had to walk to the store because the girl was too lazy.
It took about five minutes to get to the lady's home and as we drove up the much maligned grand daughter came racing out of the house. She'd been worried. She couldn't find the older woman. Why had she left without telling anyone? She hugged her grand mother and then turned to acknowledge me. She said thank you and took the bag from her grandmother and turned to go in to the house. Her grandmother turned to me and invited me in for tea. I said no but she persisted and her grand daughter joined her so I accepted.
It was a pleasant home. And the tea was fine. I asked the old lady what she did with her time and she told me she knitted…and then she smiled at me. I must, she said, have one of her hand made scarves. And, despite my protest that that wasn't necessary, she sent her grand daughter to fetch them.
The girl returned with a stack of some really, really ugly shawls…all in brilliant crayon box colors. The old lady showed them off proudly and said that I must have one. I should, she said, just take my pick.
Okay, I did a good deed and I got punished for it. I left the house in a hurry, really angry that I'd been suckered like that. But then I rethought. This was one of those happenings that was going to be a really funny story – later.
All these years later, I remember it well. But look at what I get out of it. I get to tell everyone about a good deed I did, plus get a little empathy for being taken advantage of, and still get a laugh. Is it 100% accurate? Probably not But it's MY memory, and you can't change it.
I was out driving a few day ago and as I rounded a corner I noticed a particularly good looking young couple standing down the road a bit. They were an attractive pair. She, fairly tall and slender, wearing one of those long skirts that moves gracefully in the breeze, and he, in a fitted Tshirt and jeans, looking just the way he should.
As I watched they would glance tenderly into each others eyes then quickly look down as if embarrassed by the emotions they were obviously feeling.
I'm a writer…I see a scene, I automatically fill in the dialogue. This one danced around beautiful blue eyes and strong hands, and maybe marriage and a honeymoon back packing around Europe…or no…maybe climbing to the top of the Eiffel Tower and gazing at the world's most romantic city.
It was all there and it fit so perfectly.
But, no matter how slowly I drove I finally reached them and started to go around the next corner. I couldn't complete the turn without looking back for one last glance. There it was…the exchange of glances and the quick look down at the ground, where stood the explanation I really didn't want to see.
They were standing together, small bag in hand, tenderly watching and waiting as their doggie pooped!

Q: Four-square Conjecture Lagrange's four-square theorem states that every nonnegative integer
can be written as the sum of four squares. My following conjecture is much stronger than this classical theorem.
Four-square Conjecture. Each integer $n>1$ can be written as
$$x^2+y^2+(2^a3^b)^2+(2^c5^d)^2$$
with $x,y,a,b,c,d$ nonnegative integers.
I have verified this for all $n=2,\ldots,5\times10^8$ (cf. http://oeis.org/A308734). For example,
$$11= 0^2 + 1^2+ (2^03^1)^2 + (2^05^0)^2=0^2+3^2+(2^03^0)^2 + (2^05^0)^2.$$
It seems that none of the known proofs of Lagrange's four-square theorem could be adapted to yield a proof of the conjecture.
QUESTION. Is the Four-square Conjecture true? Can one find a counterexample?

How were the first genes isolated from genomic or cDNA libraries without already knowing a hybridization probe?
Let us go back in time to around 1975. It is my understanding that at that point (or at least by the end of the decade), both genomic and cDNA libraries had been created for a few organisms, e.g. rabbits. I'm interested in the logic of techniques that first used these libraries to isolate genes encoding for particular proteins. Note: I'm not interested in how we'd isolate a gene today; I want to understand the history.
First, consider the following thought experiment. Say it's around 1975. The one assignment for my Cal Tech biology class is a doozy: it goes as follows. The instructor (Tom Maniastis?) hands me a protein along with the cells from which the protein was isolated as well as genomic and cDNA libraries of the organism that makes the protein; the challenge is to isolate the gene encoding for the protein. I do not know anything about the protein except that the product I've been given is pure.
Of course, the basic idea is simple: isolate the gene by screening the libraries with a radioactive nucleic acid probe and using a hybridization assay. But alas, I do not have a complementary probe: all I have is the protein! What do I do?
Here is one solution I can imagine. (I don't know whether it was possible around 1975, much less whether it actually happened.) I could try to isolate the mRNA that codes for my protein (but how to do that?), then radiolabel it and use the radiolabelled mRNA as a probe in a hybridization assay on the cDNA library (not the genomic library, since the unprocessed DNA could have noncoding regions).
Would this have worked?
Did anyone actually do this?
If yes to either (1) or (2), how could one figure out which mRNA coded for the protein?
The question, in essence, is how to get to DNA, given only a protein, circa 1975.

$\begingroup$ I am curious as to why you posted here. If you really are at Caltech and just wanted to know the answer you should be smart enough to do a literature search and find the answer. However, again if you are at Caltech you presumably are bright enough to want to work it out by yourself, so you don't want those of us (me) who were around in 1975 gave you the answer (which I won't). As you, yourself admit, your proposal is flawed ("how to isolate the mRNA?"). Do you want a hint or discussion? That's not what SE Biology is for. Tell me why I shouldn't vote to close. $\endgroup$
$\begingroup$ @David: I'm not at Cal Tech. I'm a math-trained grad student in the history and philosophy of science. I said explicitly it's a thought experiment. I don't know how to find the result in the literature. If you want a different way of asking the question: tell me how Maniatis et al 76 and 78 got mRNA rabbit insulin probes. I'm not trying to start a discussion: I want the answer. I find it cynical and unnecessary for you to assume I didn't want the answer. $\endgroup$
– symplectomorphic
$\begingroup$ Another possible solution: get the protein's amino acid sequence (using Sanger's technique), then synthesize a lot of RNA or DNA probes compatible with it (there will be a huge number, thanks to degeneracy of the genetic code). But was synthesis possible then? I don't know enough of the history to know which of these methods could've been done in the late 70s. $\endgroup$
$\begingroup$ I wasn't being synical, just trying to find the context to your question (which nobody else had responded to). Your latest suggestion is a more logical use of the pure protein idea. You might think what else you can do with a pure protein, and also — as you mentioned cells — why proteins like insulin and globin were "low-hanging fruit". I'm a bit busy at the moment, but will respond in due course if nobody else does. $\endgroup$
$\begingroup$ Thanks. I assume no one answered because others don't know the answer: it's a non-trivial problem, not Googleable or capable of being looked up easily. I know insulin and globin were overproduced by insulinomas and red blood cells, so their mRNAs were abundant. But how to isolate the mRNA responsible for insulin, say, in particular? $\endgroup$
The following is based on a chapter on Cloning DNA in the 10th edition of The Biochemistry of the Nucleic Acids (RLP Adams et al.) published by Chapman & Hall in 1986. (This is probably more pertinent than the 11th and final edition, which was published in 1992 and had a more contemporary treatment.) Apologies for the fact that it will be difficult to find. It should be available from some university libraries and through inter-library loan systems in certain countries. Section A.7.3 gives a taste of the methodology used at that time.
Protein properties that could be used as the basis of a cloning strategy
In attempting to clone DNA for a particular protein for which there were no pre-existing clones to use as hybridization probes, one had to consider the properties of the protein one is able to exploit. These might include:
Antibodies to the protein
Particular physical properties, such as size
(Clearly if one had no such 'handle' to the protein one was not in a position to try to clone its cDNA or gene.)
Three general approaches
There seemed to be three general approaches:
No expression
Indirect expression
Direct expression
The approach that one might take was also governed by whether the protein is particularly abundant in a specific tissue, when one might expect less sophisticated more labour-intensive approaches to stand a chance of success.
Another point to emphasize is that, at least with eukaryotes, one would look for a cDNA clone first, and only try for a genomic clone after one had this to employ as a hybridization probe.
1. 'No expression' approaches
In the no expression approaches one relied on the amino acid sequence to identify the cloned DNA. One such approach was to use hybridization probes against stretches of amino acids, the codons of which had limited redundancy (Met and Trp have a single codon, and some other amino acids only two) using low stringency hybridization conditions. This required luck. Alternatively one could sequence random clones and hope to find one that correlated with the amino acid sequence. At that time DNA sequencing was slow and labour intensive, so that this was only applicable to proteins that were relatively abundant in the tissue from which the libarary was prepared.
2. Direct expression approaches
Direct expression generally entailed using a bacterial expression vector which produced a fusion of a bacterial protein with a part of the eukaryotic protein. (Statistically only one in six of clones would have the correct reading frame in a fusion protein.). This approach was favoured if one had an antibody, which did not require a complete protein.
3. Indirect expression approaches
By indirect expression was meant using immobilized cloned cDNA to select corresponding mRNAs ('hybrid selection') which could be expressed in a cell-free system. This was appropriate if the distinguishing characteristic required a full-length protein, as in the case of biological activity or size.
Specific to the insulin gene, the following paper is, as far as I can tell, the first to isolate it:
Ullrich A, Shine J, Chirgwin J, Pictet R, Tischer E, Rutter WJ, Goodman HM. 1977. Rat insulin genes: construction of plasmids containing the coding sequences. Science 196:1313-1319.
The took advantage of the fact that insulin is produced by β cells in the pancreas and so are enriched in insulin mRNA. After poly(A) RNA was isolated and reverse transcribed, the major band observed upon electrophoresis of the resulting cDNA was expected to belong to the insulin gene:
It seemed likely that the [major] fragments were derived from insulin cDNA because of their prominence in the total cDNA preparation. Therefore, these fragments as well as the complete cDNA preparations were used in the cloning experiments.
Thus they cloned this cDNA, sequenced it and discovered that it contained the entire proinsulin coding sequence:
Since the mRNA contains a terminal poly(A) sequence, the [cloned] DNA strand containing 3' terminal poly(dA) is of the same sense. This strand determines an amino acid sequence which exactly corresponds to the entire coding region for rat proinsulin I and 13 out of 23 amino acids of the prepeptide sequence.
With this sequence determined and because of its high degree of conservation, the homologous human gene could be isolated by hybridizing with rat insulin cDNA:

TSSniper is a transport stream(ts,m2ts) editor. This software is not yet completely finished but cutting of transport streams containing H-264 or MPEG2 video should work without problems. The following audio/video formats are supported: Transport streams(.ts, .mts, .m2ts, AVCHD) with one video track containing either H.264 or MPEG2 video (with or without PAT/PMT) together with the following audio track formats: MPEG1, MPEG2, AC-3, AAC, AAC-HE. Transport streams containing multiple programs (transponder dumps) can only be processed if the qualifying desciption elements (PAT/PMT) also exist in the dump. Teletext und subtitle tracks are not yet supported. Cuts are placed on I/IDR-frames.
Install ffdshow and Haali media splitter if you get DirectShow problems.
Download TSSniper Portable download from the Download links under Download and Download other versions!
The picture denotes that knn have not even looked at the settings: on Extras > Settings... >General tab, under Generic behavior you can set the "Default mode for new projects": Cut mode - Cut areas are defined, or Scene mode - Scenes are defined.
1) Whatever splitter I select (Haali, MPC, MAD VR, LAV) it gives me an error "You will not be able to select audio streams". Only Haali Media Splitter AR works.
2) Due to this error selecting/marking is not possible (= the ruler snaps always back to 0:0:00), but that isn't told anywhere.
3) Utterly idiotic ridiculous way to mark/select. I have never seen anything as bizarre and unnecessary and unintuitive as that. Actually I think it's a bug.
...and ask yourself: If I press "save" what part will it save?
5) The output file name is not based on the input file name, but is ALWAYS "new sniper project". That means if you save several scenes from 1 file you will always have to type in the name anew.
6) Doesn't honor default output paths (at least sometimes).
8) Takes way too long to start up. Mind you, it doesn't accept command line parameters, thus the start up is for the naked program without any file loading.
* instead of simply "Open file".
I wish it would work like mpeg2cut2.
1. TSSniper's interface is wonky and takes some getting used to. There is no documentation, and various elements of the program do not operate as one might expect. However, click around enough and you will figure it out -- at which point it becomes quite useable.
2. TSSniper does not like Nero's software. It may give you an error message about proper codecs. I have found differing opinions on what this message means and whether it's a problem, but for me I simply uninstalled Nero -- a foolproof solution, especially considering that CDBurnerXP is good enough for most people.
3. TSSniper cannot always splice two streams. I am videotaping on a Canon Vixia HF M300, whose .MTS files, when spliced, result in a corrupted output stream. However, other tools exist to concatenate video files -- my tool of choice is TSMuxer.
Bottom line: use TSSniper because A) it's fairly good and B) if you want something free, you don't have a better choice anyway.


For a few weeks in April, male Greater Prairie Chickens spend much of their time in skirmishes on the lek with a goal of impressing one of the females watching from the sidelines. This male took a break from the fray to fly to the roof of the school bus blind we were sitting in for a better view of the females he was trying to impress. He stayed atop the bus only briefly but returned several times to survey the possibilites. He was only about 10 or so feet away from my lens when he took off from the lek, flew directly toward me and landed on the roof just above my head.

This study examined the potential use of keystroke dynamics to create keyprints (typing fingerprints) to authenticate individuals in online assessment situations. The implications of this study are best understood in terms of the keystroke behavioral biometric. While previous studies considered the degree to which keystroke typing patterns are unique, this study was set up to determine how well keyprints are able to identify individuals when typing under various treatment conditions (copy typing, free typing, and typing with mild or moderate impediments). While authentication can be difficult when attempting to correctly identify individual users, the results of this study indicate that keyprints can be a solid indicator of negative cases (i.e., flagging situations where a typing sample is likely not the correct individual). As anticipated, typing with a temporary impediment does diminish the algorithms' ability to identify students. This is also the case when user samples are typed under conditions different from those in which the keyprint baseline signature was captured (i.e., copy versus free typing). The ability to identify individuals is also challenging when using small comparison samples. However, the ability of the system to identify negative cases functions fairly well in each instance.

Transcendence and the Africana Literary Enterprise
Christel N. Temple - Foreword by Molefi Kete Asante
Africana literary critic and cultural theory scholar, Christel N. Temple, whose groundbreaking books, Literary Pan-Africanism: History, Contexts, and Criticism (2005) and Literary Spaces: Introduction to Comparative Black Literature (2007), have been some of the most influential models of contemporary Africana Studies-based literary criticism, responds to the demand for a core disciplinary source that comprehensively defines and models literary praxis from the vantage point of Africana Studies. This highly anticipated seminal study finally institutionalizes the discipline's literary enterprise. Framing the concept of transcendence, she covers over a dozen traditional African American works in an original and thought-provoking analysis that places canonical approaches in enlightened discourse with Africana studies reader-response priorities.
This study makes traditional literature come alive in conversation with topics of masculinity, womanism, Black Lives Matter, humor, Pan-Africanism, transnationalism, worldview, the subject place of Africa, cultural mythology, hero dynamics, Black psychology, demographics, history, Black liberation theology, eulogy, cultural memory, Afro-futurism, the Kemetic principle of Maat, social justice, rap and hip hop, Diaspora, and performance. Scholars now have a focused Africana Studies text—for both introductory and advanced literature courses—to capture the power of the African American literary canon while modeling the most dynamic practical applications of humanities-to-social science practices.

Conclusion: An Atmosphere of Freedom
In Transcendence and the Africana Literary Enterprise, Temple's critical approach models the freedom of vision and engagement that I seek when embracing an expansive African aestheticism and my best pedagogy. It is a major achievement.
— Joanne V. Gabbin, James Madison University
Temple centers Africology as a cultural lens. By doing so, she expands and reshapes literary criticism. In essence, this intervention into literary criticism can operate as a companion to existing and emerging African American anthologies. Transcendence is a paradigm shift that certainly incorporates previous works of literary criticism, but provides a new Afrocentric framework for learning and teaching Black culture.
Her contribution repositions our notion of text and reader by connecting historical readings to contemporary literature. She traces a Black cultural evolution from 19th century novels, through contemporary fiction and theatre, to Afro-futurism and hip hop thereby offering a rich continuum of Black writing and creative impulses. Her choices for each chapter combine new approaches to well-known pieces and innovative assessments of lesser-known but critical texts.
Beyond taking a deconstructive stance, Temple focuses on Black freedom. Liberation permeates her prose, creating a fresh, constructive journey for her readers. Indeed, the entire text offers a 'critical benchmark,' one of her goals clearly reached.
— Stephanie Y. Evans, Clark Atlanta University
Transcendence and the Africana Literary Enterprise—where Black studies, Pan-African studies, and Africology meet Africana literary criticism and reader response criticism—is a brilliant coming together of theory and literary analysis that provides a new and much-needed approach to reading literary texts.
— Georgene Bess Montgomery, Clark Atlanta University
