Q: sending variable from one jsp to another jsp I have one JSP file as jsp 1.jsp
and another JSP file as jsp 2.jsp
I've included jsp 2.jsp in jsp 1.jsp using <%@include file="jsp 2.jsp" %>
Now I need a click event on some element. And on that event I want to transfer a string variable to included jsp.
Lets say I have a list and on click of it I want to transfer the name of the list to another JSP,
And in another JSP I am trying to use that string to carry out some task.
And I am doing all these without any servlet.
challenging one!!
I have google'd a lot, but didnt find anything.

A: If the reason for including your jsp 2 in jsp 1 is for sending variable, then its not needed.
you just need to set a hidden variable in jsp 1, and in your jsp 2 you should able to access it, by using the jsp implicit request object.

A: You have a number of options:

*

*Store it in the session.
// Memorise any passed in user.
String username = request.getParameter("username");
if (username != null && username.length() > 0) {
  session.setAttribute("username", username);
}

*Store it as a hidden field in the form.
<input name="username" type="hidden" value=""/>

*Store it in a cookie.
username = getCookie(userCookieName);

// Get from cookie.
function getCookie(name) {
  if (document.cookie) {
    index = document.cookie.indexOf(name);
    if (index !== -1) {
      f = (document.cookie.indexOf("=", index) + 1);
      t = document.cookie.indexOf(";", index);
      if (t === -1) {
        t = document.cookie.length;
      }
      return(document.cookie.substring(f, t));
    }
  }
  return ("");
}

*Persist it on the client side in sessionStorage. See here for details.
sessionStorage.setItem("username", "...");

*Not really another option but a mechanism - pass it in the URL:
.... onclick="window.location='details.jsp?username=...'

A: Try to use Ajax with JQuery to achieve your goal or you can simply store the String object in session and you can delete it in jsp2.jsp when ever you use it. or you can simply append to a url as query string there are multiple ways among them the above are few.
These questions may help you
Question 1
Question 2
Question 3
Question 4

A: in jsp1
use this way to pass value.
<form action="">
<input type="hidden" name="hidden" value="hidden">
<input type="submit" value="submit"></form>

in jsp2 to get value
String value=request.getParameter("hidden");

A: You can set a jsp:param, as in this example jsp:param element or take a look at this similar post Passing parameters between JSP pages.

72 luxury apartments are on sale right across from Buckingham Palace.
The No. 1 Palace Road property, set to be complete in 2019, boasts views over the Palace's Gardens.
The apartments start at £2.5 million and go up to £30 million.
If you're a fan of the royal family, you can now get a front row seat to their lives — if you have £2.5 million to spare, that is.
No. 1 Palace Street, a luxury development from London developer Northacre, is offering prospective buyers the opportunity to live right across from Buckingham Palace.
Located in the sought-after St. James' Park neighbourhood, the residence — which will boast 72 "state-of-the-art" apartments — is due to be complete in 2019. Apartments start at £2.5 million and go up to a whopping £30 million — and 70% of them have already sold, according to the company.
Set on a 300,000 square foot island site inside a Grade II-listed property originally created in 1890 as The Palace Hotel — which hosted guests of Queen Victoria before the third wing of the Palace was built — the residence will offer views over the 47-acre Buckingham Palace Gardens. The location is even more idyllic if you can blag your way into one of the Queen's garden parties.
Whether it's a one-bedroom or a penthouse, each apartment will have a unique layout and a custom design to "complement the different architectural styles of the building," according to the company.
The property's 10,000 square feet of facilities will also include a 6,500 square foot "haven of wellbeing" which will feature a gym, personal training suites, treatment rooms, and "one of the most impressive private pools in the Capital," which will overlook the courtyard and private garden.
The property will also feature a cinema room, library, and entertaining suite, while residents will be able to make use of personal catering from the development's restaurant.
And if these pictures are anything to go by, the outside of the building will be equally as impressive.


Swimming is one of the most popular low-impact fitness activities. Both competitive and recreational swimmers practice and compete year-round. While the benefits of swimming certainly outweigh the risks, there is still a possibility a swimmer may suffer an injury.
Most commonly, swimmers experience shoulder pain due to the repetitive nature of the sport. Repeating the same motion for a long period of time, on a daily basis will result in an overuse injury to the shoulder.
Shoulder instability occurs when the ligaments that hold the shoulder ball to the socket becomes loose.
Biceps tendonitis occurs when there is inflammation of the biceps tendon.
Shoulder impingement is an inflammation and compression of the rotator cuff tendons and bursa sac.
Most times these shoulder injuries can be treated without surgery. "Non-surgical treatment options include rest from swimming, rehabilitation with an athletic trainer or physical therapist, modifying a swimmer's work out or identifying problems with their stroke technique," said Dr. Gudeman.
Recovery from these injuries depends on the severity of the problem. Length of recovery may range from a simple work out modification to a swimmer missing an entire swim season.
Although shoulder injuries are the most common injury among swimmers, they are also prone to injuries of the knee, back and hip.

Ganga likely to have necessary e-flow by December 15
Hydropower, irrigation projects on Ganga asked to release sufficient water to ensure uninterrupted flow in river; e-flow describes quantity and quality of water flow to sustain freshwater ecosystems
A view of the holy river Ganga in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.
The Centre has directed hydropower and irrigation projects on Ganga to ensure a minimum and uninterrupted flow in the river by December 15, a notification said.
Issued last month, the notification reduced by more than half the time that was originally given to the projects to ensure compliance with the mandated environmental flows.
The National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG) in October last year had come out with a notification asking hydropower and irrigation projects to make necessary arrangements like controlled gated spillways and structural modifications in the next three years.
It was issued after demands from Ganga activists for ensuring necessary environmental flow that was being affected by irrigation and hydropower projects.
Environmental flows describe the quantity, timing, and quality of water flows required to sustain freshwater and estuarine ecosystems and the human livelihoods and well-being that depend on these ecosystems.
There are 11 major projects from Uttarakhand to Uttar Pradesh that have the capacity to modify the flow and the NMCG had specified release of water from all of them.
NMCG Director General Rajiv Ranjan Mishra said the CWC submitted a report in July recommending that all the existing projects have a provision for releasing the mandated environmental flow through controlled gated spillways or water ways, and that structural modifications in the body of the project may not be required.
The Central Water Commission (CWC) is the designated authority for supervision, regulation of flows and reporting on quarterly basis to the NMCG.
Accordingly, a fresh notification was issued last month. It asked the hydropower and irrigation projects to start releasing the water by December 15.
"The central government is of the view that the time period of three years allowed to the existing projects to ensure proper compliance of the mandated environmental flows specified in the said order, is excessive and not necessary," a notification said.

What separates the good athlete from the truly great? How do some athletes transcend the pain and agony of extreme physical performance?
In a three-part series at the Fond du Lac Public Library, "Going to Extremes," three outstanding Fond du Lac athletes will tell their stories and talk about their ability to push themselves — mentally and physically — in the crush of performance. All presentations take place at 6 p.m. on Wednesdays in the summer. All are free; no registration required.
The series features:
•June 15: Andy Land, 53, is an experienced mountaineer from Fond du Lac who was starting his Mount Everest ascent when a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Nepal, triggering massive avalanches, devastating the countryside and stranding Land and others at base camp. He thought he was going to die. The quake claimed more than 6,600 lives, including 19 at base camp. Land was attempting Everest to benefit Climbing For Hospice. He is the director of Hospice and Palliative Care Services at Agnesian HealthCare and has summited Mount Rainier, Mount Whitney, Mount McKinley and peaks in South America and beyond.
Dave Haase (Photo: Photo courtesy of Matt Haas, M Magazine.)
•July 20: Ultracyclist Dave Haase, 48, grew up in Fond du Lac and Oshkosh. He's a five-time top U.S. finisher of the Race Across America (RAAM), an extreme test of ability and endurance that challenges cyclists to ride 250 to 350 miles a day from California to Maryland: 3,000 miles across 12 states, climbing over 170,000 vertical feet. A lifelong athlete, Haase found ultracycling late in life when he entered a 24-hour race on a whim. He clocked his best RAAM finish in 2015, with a second-place time of 8 days, 20 hours and 6 minutes — the fastest time posted by an American since 1999 and the fastest non-winning time in race history. He's currently training for the 2016 race, which will start on June 14. Haase owns Attitude Sports in Fond du Lac and Pewaukee.
Amy VanDyke (Photo: Photo courtesy of VanDyke)
•Aug. 17: Amy VanDyke, 45, ran the equivalent of 13 marathons in 13 days. The Fond du Lac mother of four who describes herself as a former non-athlete didn't start running until 2010. Responding to a challenge, VanDyke signed on to run two legs of the 2014 MS Run the US, 3,000-mile relay from Los Angeles to New York to raise money and awareness for multiple sclerosis. She covered 355 miles in Colorado, crossing two mountain passes. In her three years of running the relay, VanDyke has run more than 800 miles and has raised more than $45,000 for MS. "Running for a purpose gives me motivation," Amy said. "Your body can do anything your mind tells it to." Amy now works as the community engagement manager for MS Run the US.
"Going to Extremes" is a program in the library's summer reading series, "Ready, Set, Read!" which challenges readers of all ages to complete four reading cards, earning rewards as they go. "Ready, Set, Read!" programs for all ages include professional entertainers, movies and lots of hands-on fun and learning. The full roster is available at fdlpl.org, click Calendar.

Gang rape in India becomes important Women History Month topic
March 17, 2013 12:00 am by Martina Marchese Views: 11
On March 8, communication professor Sanjutka Ghosh hosted a brown paper bag luncheon in the Campus Center 1787 room in honor of Women's History Month. The event was a presentation about the gang-rape that took place in December in Delhi, India.
CHANGE coordinator Amy Bremel suggested the topic to Ghosh, who was in India when it happened. The audience consisted of about 10 women who were very active in the discussion of the topic and had many reasons for attending.
"I used to direct women's studies at another institution. I want to celebrate International Women's Day and I try to attend as many women studies events as I can," said Associate Dean of Academics Ingrid Johnston-Robledo.
On Dec. 16, 23-year-old Jyoti Singh Pandey, was attacked while returning home after going to see the Life of Pi with friends. Her and a friend were waiting for the bus when a bus appeared that was not part of the public transportation system, but looked similar. During the 19-mile bus ride, Pandey was brutally raped by five men. A metal rod was used in the rape causing her internal organs to be massacred.
Once found by the police, she was transported to Singapore to receive organ transplants. She died Dec 28.
"This is just brutal. I didn't know the rape was that brutal. How do you change the mentality of these people when a 17-year-old is the worst offender. If they [India] are so intellectual why are they so backwards?" ranted a physical plant employee who preferred to remain anonymous.
Within 24 hours, the rape stirred up a series of rallies and movements all throughout the country. The protests took place from the president's house all the way to the Indian Gate.
"There were miles and miles of people, it was just beautiful," said Ghosh.
The protests centralized around a few specific themes of patriarchy, women's rights, shame of India and violence with violence.
"[The Protesters] were trying to shame the government into doing something," said Ghosh.
Some signs displayed messages of death, as well as castration for the rapists. Others were messages shown through artwork, often done by many college students.
One of the most important factors of the rallies was how much male participation occurred. Men stood below to hold women protesters above them so their voices could be heard and their images could be seen.
"The government is corrupt, the police are corrupt, and the judicial system is corrupt," said Ghosh in her speech about punishment for the rapists.
Ghosh showed images of police using tear gas and water cannons against the protesters.
Even though the president of India is a woman, as is the chief of police in Delhi, Ghosh said "that doesn't change the fact that we live in a patriarchal society."
The men involved in the rape were indicted and the minor among them was sentenced to a juvenile home.
"The 17-year-old was the primary aggressor and he won't be convicted or held to the standard that the other men will be," said Amy Bremel.
Even though many can see how wrong these events are, it still takes time to change the fact that they happen.
"Attitudes take a long time to change even when people have voting rights," said Martha Coulter.

A Lion Mom Roars: Two Determined Mothers Aim High for Their Children in Music, But in Different Ways
A few weeks ago, I took my 17-year-old daughter, Ariana, an accomplished viola player, to the East Coast to audition at top-tier music conservatories, The auditions are, of course, important – where you go to college affects your whole life. At the first audition, waiting for her turn, I asked Ariana if she was nervous. "No, mommy, I'm so excited to play for them!" She was happy, like Cinderella going to the ball.
It felt to me like the end of a long road, and the start of a new one. When Ariana and her brother Zak were little, I suddenly became a single mother. I believed that I would never be able to send them to college without scholarships. So I groomed them in something that, as a symphonic violinist, I knew well: music. I started Zak on violin at 6 and Ariana at 5 (she switched to viola in her teens). During those hard times, I sometimes sacrificed paying my utilities bills in order to buy their instruments and pay for their lessons.
The first piece in Ariana's first college audition was a dramatic Brahms sonata. I practically glued my ear to the door. It seemed to me that she was expressing all the life experiences that had brought her to this point; wonderful experiences like play dates and sleepovers with good friends, horseback riding, and playing in jazz and rock'n'roll bands. And there were echoes of difficult experiences, too, like her parents' divorce, a cross-country move and teenage school troubles.
When she emerged from the room, I could tell from her face that she had nailed it. The teacher, who served as a judge, followed her out the door, congratulated me, and said that he'd love to teach her.
I've been thinking a lot about that experience, because so many people have asked me about the 'tiger mother' essay. You've probably read the article, by law professor Amy Chua, in the (January 8, 2011) Wall Street Journal, titled 'Why Chinese Mothers are Superior.' Chua outlines her approach to childrearing, which she calls the 'tiger' way, and compares it to the 'Western' way. Her children were never allowed sleepovers or play dates. They were required to be the top student in their classes, and to play only piano or the violin, for hours each day. Chua tells an anecdote about her 7-year-old daughter Lulu's difficulty with a particular piano piece. Lulu gave up and left the piano. Her mother forced her back. "Punching, thrashing and kicking" ensued. Chua insulted and threatened her daughter, and didn't let her go to the bathroom. After many hours – with no dinner – Lulu finally played the piece correctly.
My response: Chua could have achieved the same results with none of the negativity.
I know this because, not only am I now the parent of three highly musical children, but I also direct a music school with hundreds of young clients. We groom students from the beginning so that they can become good enough to get into Juilliard or any top-tier music program, if that's the direction they choose. So in our ambition for our children, I'm a lot like Chua, who tried to get her daughter into Juilliard's precollege program.
But, aside from admiring Juilliard, my experience helping children grow and to thrive in music to reach the highest levels couldn't be more different from Chua's.
ANGER IS EASY
In letting herself become angry at her children during practices, Chua takes the easy way out. The violin is the most difficult instrument a child can play. Seeing their children mess up, a parent's anger can go from 0 to 100 in seconds. Sometimes I just want to jump inside my daughter's little body and do it for her! Add to that the financial sacrifice – no wonder parents go ballistic.
I tell the parents that they're not alone in these feelings, and offer them tools to reduce the frustration and help the child progress. My positive reward system includes plenty of praise and presents, from puffy stickers and 'silly band' bracelets, to cute Japanese erasers and plastic busts of great composers. We also offer dozens of ideas to help make practice fun, or at least tolerable.
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT VS. 'PLAYING' WITH FRIENDS
Chua puts a lot of emphasis on making her children practice for many hours – not just one or two hours, but 3 hours a day or more of solitary practice, just with mom. That would be 21 hours a week (plus whatever lessons they attend). I'm like Chua, in terms of my insistence that my children practice every day, and put in a lot of time each week. Some parents think I'm over the top. I added up the hours my 9-year-old daughter Jenna spends with music and her cello – it comes out to nearly 20 hours a week. But that's not solo practice. Jenna is in two of my music school's orchestras; and she plays in three quartets, with girls her age. On top of that, she has four cello lessons a week, one piano lesson, and one music theory class. I try to get her to practice solo for an additional – 1 hour a day. (All this isn't nearly as expensive or time-consuming as it sounds because, of course, we own the music school which is Jenna's second home.)
A more typical student in my program might take 1 or 2 lessons a week; participate in one of our string quartets once a week, and play with one or two of our orchestras weekly. He is also encouraged to practice 45-90 minutes a day, depending on level and age. That can average out 1 hours a day, around 12 hours a week, compared to Chua's childrens' 21 hours.
Putting time into practice in is important. In the elementary through high school years, it is true that the kids who practice for the most hours will have the most advanced technique, and will earn first chairs. But when they go out into the real world, and start auditioning for conservatories, high-level orchestras, and competitions, the winners will be the players who are not only technically proficient, but who are also able to interpret a piece of music in a way that is unique to them, with a high level of musicianship which can only come from varied life experiences – including non-musical experiences like play dates, sleepovers, and friendships.
Jenna is getting quality time, rather than just "doing time." A significant percentage of her 21 hours, and the 12 hours of our more typical students, is spent in groups with her peers. It's in group playing that students develop their musicality, and other critical skills like listening, leading, and rhythm. It's also in group playing that the child develops a sense of belonging that pulls him or her upwards in music. They join a wonderful club with friendships, fun, snacks, trips to amusement park music festivals, medals, pins, trophies, and above all, travel! Membership inspires them to practice – reducing parents' frustration.
Which brings up another reason that the 'tiger' approach is counterproductive. Being a professional musician is a social career. Succeeding is about making connections and friends. If there's a good job, and there are two players to choose from, it's the one who gets along with everybody who will get the job.
Chua appears to isolate her daughters. She describes as 'Chinese' her insistence that her child must be number one in almost any situation, school and music. My perspective: In music, as in life, aiming to be number one is a losing proposition. There will always be someone who plays better. Children must learn cooperation in order to succeed.
MISTAKES ARE A LAUGHING MATTER
After ten years of running a music school, we've learned that some parents should be separated from the student during lessons. I'll be teaching a child how important it is to relax their upper body, and then the parent will chime in, or even poke the child – "And don't forget to push your arm in!" – which pretty much puts us back to square one with the child's tension. Overbearing parents inhibit student progress.
Chua demands perfection from her daughters. I tell my students (and their parents) that it's O.K. to make mistakes. Something I say a lot in class and orchestra is, "I am so happy you played that wrong, now we can all learn!" My own children have made plenty of mistakes – big ones. Like the time Ariana forgot to tighten her bow before a fancy recital! Another time, she left the mute on her violin for the entire performance! You bet she'll never do that again. We laughed then, and we still chuckle about it.
When my own children fail, when they don't get first chair, I don't take it personally. I know they'll do better next time. They don't need me to rub it in.
After years of dealing with hundreds of parents, it's pretty clear to me that those who behave like Chua have tied their self-esteem too tightly to their children's performance.
STICK WITH IT
Along with being ambitious, there is another area where Chua and I are similar: We're both stubborn. If she's a tiger mother, you can call me a lion mother. I agree with Chua's attitude that, if someone wants their child to become a skillful musician, a parent must be very single-minded, stick with it, slog through the difficult parts, and never give up. But parents also must learn to separate from the child, and to grow their own lives emotionally and spiritually. And parents do not have to take away a child's precious childhood.

Flushing residents push for removal of commercial site project impacting quality of life in their community
By Carlotta Mohamed

Residents living at Underhill Avenue near Kissena Park angrily voiced their concerns Monday night during the Community Board 7 meeting regarding a commercial site project that has caused a loud ruckus in the quiet residential neighborhood.
Complaints of loud noise from a dozen large dump trucks carrying debris, air pollution, contaminated water, and damages to homes, resulted in residents uniting at the Feb. 11 meeting at Union Plaza Care Center in Flushing, calling for removal of the site located at the end of Underhill Avenue and 170th St.

"The goal is to remove them because this is a residential area, it's a park where people walk their dogs, kids ride their bicycles, it just doesn't belong," said Bebe Rohani. "A processing site belongs in an industrial site. "We already have a petition with over 70 signatures and counting."
Rohani says the large dump trucks are destroying their roads.
Residents say there was no community input to allow construction at the storage facility site, which belongs to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), to operate from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily in the community of one and two family homes. It is also the testing site for the Department of Motor Vehicle, which residents say is endangering the safety of children as well.
"It's a dangerous environment when you put large trucks and inexperienced operators in the same area working on the streets," said Joe Smeragliuolo. " We've got the sound from the trucks, we've got pollution from trucks, we've got all of these issues burdened on us."
Smeragliuolo added, "If it has to be in the DEP area, why does it have to be within 15 feet of one house and 10 yards of another? If they place this in the DEP yard where the people park, it would be the minimum 100 yards away from the nearest homes. That's the solution."
Diane Varisco and her husband Jim, whose home is adjacent from the site, are awaken every morning by loud disturbing sounds rattling their home.
"From the vibrations I have window panes that are falling out, we have a severe water problem on the side of the property that connects with their site," said Varisco. "We have a lot of dust and debris that's flying around."

The Varisco's flooded backyard
When Varisco approached the contractor of the site, he told her he would pay for the cost of repairs, but never fulfilled his promise, Varisco said.
"We have no proof that this is going to happen, because somebody else had approached him also and he said 'Yeah, Yeah I'll fix it' but when?"' said Varisco. "I can't afford to make these repairs, we're talking about tens of thousands of dollars. One guy wanted $11,000 for windows, who has that laying around?"
Eugene Kelty, chair of Community Board 7, informed residents that the DEP site is being used for a capital improvement project for Community Board 11 in Bayside, replacing a four mile stretch of old sewage pipes.
The public works project — involving the DEP, CAC (management of construction at the site), and DDC (Department of Design and Construction) — began in the summer of 2018 and is expected to be completed by 2021.
Prior to the start of construction, according to Kelty, he had no objections when the contractors asked him about working at the site and requested a letter. In the letter, Kelty "listed conditions and concerns, due to past unacceptable work and the city agencies lack of response for requests for corrective actions and enforcement."
A DDC contractor, who was present at the meeting, was unable to speak amidst the loud outbursts from residents in the room asking whether they're conducting legal or illegal work at the site screening, processing, and crushing material.
When asked by the environmental chair of the board, James Cervino, if they have a permit from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to "process, handle, and shake material," the contractor said they're "not crushing anything, we're just screening."
On Jan. 30, after receiving an influx of complaint letters, the community board, 15 residents, the president of CAC, and DDC personnel met with City Councilman Peter Koo at his Flushing office to discuss the issue.
"The fact that it's been transformed into a storage facility to an active all day long processing site that's noisy with constant truck traffic coming out of the narrow street, there's a significant quality of life impact," said Koo's representative, Scott Sieber. "We think residents are justified in being upset."
Koo's office wrote a letter to DEP to discontinue work at the site.
"We're hoping they're going to reconsider the request from the community," said Sieber.
Cervino recommended a site meeting and an abundance of evidence such as photos and videos to present to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
"If sediment, liquid and water has been impacting their property, dust samples from their window sills, I need a clear cohesive package that documents the concerns," said Cervino. "And if they don't have a permit to manage solid waste, historic fill, and petroleum contaminated work from the trench work they're doing, they're operating illegally."

Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are been shown to be involved in the
November 28, 2018 ground
Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are been shown to be involved in the regulation of circadian clock. [8,9]. CCGs, such as and and bind to an ROR element in the promoter of gene family, the enforced expression of which leads to an altered circadian rhythm [14]. Kadener et al. discovered that a miRNA, the developmental regulator in 3 UTR in mice [17]. Therefore, mounting evidence shows that miRNAs become essential regulators from the circadian clock [18]. We have been thinking about the miRNAs that may straight target the primary clock regulators, and and its own manifestation was controlled by CLOCK/BMAL1 heterodimers. Outcomes Mir-142-3p is really a (Shape ?(Figure1A).1A). Both of these miRNAs (mir-142-3p and mir-448) had been put through validation by luciferase reporter assays using reporters including the 3UTR of mouse 3UTR-luciferase reporter (Shape ?(Figure1B).1B). We also discovered that over-expression of mir-142 could considerably decrease the luciferase reporter RNA amounts (Extra file 1B), recommending that mir-142 could accelerate focus on mRNA degradation. Because pre-mir-142 can create two adult miRNAs (mir-142-3p and mir-142-5p) (Shape ?(Shape1C,1C, best), a luciferase reporter assay was performed to make sure that mir-142-3p was the relevant effector. Certainly, the results verified that mir-142-3p however, not mir-142-5p repressed the 3UTR-luciferase reporter activity (Shape ?(Shape1C,1C, bottom level). Open up in another window Shape 1 mir-142-3p can focus on mRNA and proteins amounts To research the regulatory aftereffect of mir-142-3p for the manifestation of endogenous Bmal1, we recognized the manifestation degree of mir-142-3p and Bmal1 proteins level in six cell lines (NIH3T3, 293ET, MCF-7, U87MG, T98G and U251) generally found in our lab. We discovered that the amount of mir-142-3p was incredibly high as well as the proteins degree of Bmal1 was lower in U87MG cells weighed against another five cell lines. On the other hand, NIH3T3, 293ET, MCF-7, T98G and U251 cells with low mir-142-3p amounts expressed high degrees of Bmal1 proteins (Shape ?(Figure2A).2A). To verify that mir-142-3p can regulate the manifestation of and mouse had been established. The over-expression of mir-142-3p resulted in reductions within the degrees of both (by straight focusing on its 3UTR. Open up in another window Shape 2 mir-142-3p regulates the mRNA (Shape ?(Figure3),3), suggesting the expression of mir-142-3p may be less than circadian control. Oddly enough, by examining the 5 flank series from the mir-142 gene we discovered a conserved canonical E-box (CACGTG) (Shape ?(Figure4A).4A). The outcomes of ChIP assays demonstrated that CLOCK could bind Tnf towards the E-box straight; the canonical E-box of as well as the upstream series from the mir-20a gene had been used because the negative and positive settings, respectively (Shape ?(Shape44B). Open up in another window Shape 3 The manifestation of mir-142-3p oscillates in serum surprised NIH3T3 cells. The NIH3T3 cells had been serum surprised and gathered every four hours for removal of total RNA. And the manifestation patterns of and improved the luciferase 1108743-60-7 activity 1108743-60-7 of P142-LUC by around 2.5 fold. Mutating the conserved E-box considerably reduced the basal luciferase activity and decreased the induction (1.8 fold) of luciferase activity by co-expressing and (Shape ?(Shape5B5B and C). Aside from the 1108743-60-7 conserved canonical E-box, there is an unconserved non-canonical E-box in the upstream regulatory sequence of mir-142 gene which might contribute to the induction of luciferase activity of P142-MT-LUC by co-expression of and (Additional file 2). The results confirmed that this over-expression of and enhanced the transcription of mir-142. Moreover, the simultaneous ectopic expression of and (but not or alone) significantly induced the expression of mir-142-3p in NIH3T3 cells (Physique ?(Figure55D). Open in a separate window Physique 5 CLOCK/BMAL1 heterodimers activate the expression of mir-142. (A) The schematic representation for the luciferase reporter constructs. The upstream regulatory sequence of mir-142 together with pre-mir-142 was inserted upstream of the luciferase reporter gene. E represents the conserved canonical E-box (CACGTG). MT and DEL denote the mutation (GTCGAC) and deletion of the E-box, respectively. (B) The over-expression of by targeting its 3 UTR. A concise model describing this potential unfavorable feedback loop is usually shown in Physique ?Figure55E. Discussion In this study, we showed that this clock-controlled mir-142-3p can directly 1108743-60-7 target its circadian activator, Although mir-142-3p has been reported to be a potential both in mouse and human cells. By over-expression of mir-142-3p in NIH3T3 cells, we showed mir-142-3p can regulate the expression of in circadian clock, we speculate that this molecular clock might be also fine tuned by the miRNA-mediated unfavorable feedback. Besides was also predicted to be targeted by several miRNAs using three bioinformatic algorithms (Additional file 3A). The results of our luciferase reporter assay showed that six candidates (mir-20a, mir-106a, mir-106b, mir-148a, mir-182 and mir-301a) could be in a recent study [20]. Although we did not perform additional experiments to confirm the interaction between the miRNAs and by miRNAs.

Have a question about chiropractic care?
See the list of Frequently Asked Questions listed below.
If you can't find the answer you're looking for, feel free to contact the OCA for more information.
How to select a chiropractor?
2. What is an adjustment?
An adjustment is a highly skilled and precise movement usually applied by hand to a joint of the body. Adjustments free up the joint to restore proper movement and optimize function.
Chiropractic adjustment techniques have been researched extensively. Complications are rare and side-effects, such as temporary soreness, are usually minor. Your chiropractor will determine if your problem will respond to chiropractic care or if you require referral to another health care provider.
3. When should I see a chiropractor?
Many patients including, seniors, find that treatment helps them to maintain mobility and good range of motion. Pain should never become a way of life, especially when there is qualified help available.
4. What are some of the benefits of chiropractic care?
5. Is chiropractic adjustment safe?
Most patients experience immediate relief following an adjustment, however, some may experience temporary pain, stiffness or slight swelling. Some patients may also experience temporary dizziness, local numbness, or radiating pain. However, adverse effects associated with spinal adjustment are most often minor and short-lived.
Prior to starting treatment, all regulated health professionals are obligated by their regulatory standards to obtain informed consent documented in a written form to treatment from their patients. Health care consumers must receive appropriate and accurate information to assist them in evaluating their health care choices, and in balancing the relative risks of treatment options with the benefits. The chiropractic profession takes this responsibility seriously and has been a leader in obtaining informed consent.
Almost half of us experience some kind of neck pain at least once a year. Persistent or recurrent neck pain is reported by an estimated 50–85% of patients one to five years after initial onset. Twenty-seven percent of patients seeking chiropractic treatment report neck or cervical problems. Thus, treatment of neck pain is an integral part of chiropractic practice.
There are evidence-based clinical practice guidelines in place for chiropractic treatment of neck pain. For both chronic and acute back pain, the guidelines state that manual therapies, mobilization, and patient exercises and stretches are recommended.
Evidence also demonstrates that chiropractic care, including spinal manipulative therapy, can be an effective treatment for cervicogenic and tension-type headaches. More so, studies have demonstrated that care offered by chiropractors can also decrease the intensity and frequency of migraines. A plan of management should be individualized to the patient's needs.
Chiropractic has been proven safe and effective for a range of conditions including neck pain. Patients and their chiropractors work together to determine what treatment options appropriately balance risks with potential benefits. Chiropractors work to limit their patients' risk by performing thorough histories and examinations and frequently re-evaluating symptoms and progress.
6. Does chiropractic care require a referral from an MD?
No. Chiropractors are legislated as primary care professionals in every province in Canada. This means that patients can consult them directly. However, chiropractors often work closely with medical doctors, many of whom refer to chiropractors when they believe chiropractic treatment will help alleviate a patient's condition. Similarly, chiropractors frequently refer to medical doctors when necessary.
7. Can chiropractic care cure other ailments besides back pain?
Chiropractic care cannot "cure" every ailment, but there is some evidence to indicate that adjustments may have a beneficial effect on a variety of conditions. For example, someone with asthma may find that they can breathe easier after an adjustment, which is not curing the asthma itself, but can provide some relief from associated symptoms.
8. How many Ontarians use chiropractic?
Chiropractic is one of the largest primary care professions in Ontario, with more than 3,100 practicing chiropractors. Almost 2.7 million Ontarians use the services of a chiropractor each year to help them get back to work, and back to doing the things they love.
9. Are there many athletes who use chiropractic?
10. Does chiropractic care require X-rays?
X-rays can play a role in diagnosis and are taken when a need has been determined after taking a patient case history and conducting a physical examination. Most patients do not require X-rays.
Chiropractors receive 360 hours of education in radiology covering a full range of topics from protection to X-ray interpretation and diagnosis. Governments in every province have recognized the training and competence of chiropractors to take and interpret X-rays and have granted them this right.
11. How to select a chiropractor?

Getting Real in the 21st Century Market: Commercial children's television has never had as many different channels, platforms and distributors as it does today. Yet there are a couple of names that you will always find, wherever you are in the world, and whichever way you choose to watch content. Disney and Sony are global providers and have regional offices in all major markets. Sony are also very much open for business for titles and brands that live in the Pay TV world.
So how do they commission? We can all read the website blurb. But what chance does a small but perfectly formed British indie have of finding their way through labyrinthine commissioning protocols to actually get their idea seen by these titans of the industry? What are the actual numbers of hours commissioned from UK providers last year? How many were small companies, how many were big studios? If the regional office covers Europe, the Middle East and Africa, are the execs looking for different ideas for all three markets, or can you pitch one idea for all? How fully formed do your ideas have to be and is linear content still their first priority? How commercial do your ideas have to be from the very beginning, how much funding will actually be put up front, and most importantly, are there any slots still open for next year?
Top Disney and Sony Execs will set out their stalls, talk us through successful pitches that turned into commissioned shows, and spell out the best way to survive and succeed in today's new and constantly changing market.


Follow: Holy Land Trip- John & Brendan.
Could you imagine being there to hear those words descend on Jesus and those nearby? While time may impede the possibility, place doesn't have to- not if a trip to the Holy Land is a possibility!
From my very first class in my undergraduate degree- in fact, a class on the synoptic gospels- my mind has longed to tangibly consider the context of this powerful narrative. Whether it was Mark's sharing of the disciples' lesson learned about priority and purpose in Capernaum, Luke's hope for the possessed and dis-possessed in the Gerasenes, or simply John's party in Cana, I have often wondered what in God's Story would better come alive for me (and from me in the lessons and sermons that I share with those that I minister alongside) if I only had a chance to go and see the very place.
With this trip it is more than a curiosity!
And if simply being able to stand by the Jordan was not enough, what a blessing it is to consider having my own son, Brendan, by my side. As a Fall 2019 incoming freshman with a Religious Studies major (minor in Pastoral Ministries) at Trevecca Nazarene University (Nashville, TN), this will be one of the best imaginable ways to frame his life and lessons as a witness of God's Good News that grew and grows in a very significant place in our current landscape.
This is where we need your help. I have brushed aside trips like this in the past because of cost, but as I have watched Brendan's passion for the proclamation of the Gospel grow (even to the point of pursuing a personal call to study and prepare as best as he could), I knew that the timing of this trip was providential. Everything in me struggles to ask for support of any kind, but as I have learned from missionary colleagues, the joy is found in knowing that I am not merely a consumer of your gifts, but that in this partnership you join Brendan & I in the further opportunities God places before us to share more clearly the Story of God among us. To that end, I say a heartfelt "thank you" for whatever you should feel led to give, and the same for the prayers you lift on our behalf as we prepare and eventually participate in this trip.
The cost: Approximately $3,500 per person (Brendan & I). Includes airfare from Chicago, hotels, meals, tips, entrance fees, transportation and insurance. Not included: personal items, soft drinks, souvenirs, passports. Transportation to Chicago from Boston will cost approximately $250 per person.
*Please note that donations made through this site will not be able to be tax deductible. Should you wish to make such a donation, I would invite you to give to Lowell First Church of the Nazarene, noting the Holy Land Trip Fund in your donation.

Our original building, close to Weston Park, is currently under refurbishment so we are now based at Cathedral Court in the city centre. Our offices are located on the floors above the Blood Donor site, in between the City Hall and Cathedral tram stops.
When you arrive, please wait in reception and one of our researchers will come and meet you.
There is not much parking at the department, but there is limited pay and display parking on the roads surrounding the department. There are also several multi-storey car parks in the city centre, that are a few minutes walk away.
Cathedral Court is located in between the City Hall and Cathedral tram stops. Our central location means that many bus routes also have stops close to the department, including the 52, 120 and 123 (West Street), and the 25, 52, 83, 88, 120, and 123 (Leopold Street).


Played on a squash court to the same rules as squash but with a bigger ball and larger racket making the ball easier to retrieve and hit. Clothing as for squash/tennis with non- marking shoes. A reasonable level of fitness is required. Racket and ball provided. The less experienced players, in the judgement of the Course Tutor, will be enrolled into the second class.
Additional costs: £3 per session for court fees.


The sun is blazing down on the vines, Christmas is looming, and the last wisps of snow are melting into the deep blue lakes of the Queenstown region. Summer is nearly upon us, and we've had a stunning few weeks of weather here at Kinross Cottages recently, with blue skies for miles and perfect spring temperatures hovering in the high 20's.
For the savvy traveller, the arrival of hot weather in New Zealand's South Island means exactly one thing: it's time to start thinking about booking winter accommodation deals and Queenstown skiing holidays.
Kinross Cottages has three excellent ski-fields in close proximity, making it an outstanding Queenstown accommodation choice for all snow sports, whether that's skiing, snowboarding, cross-country, heli-skiing, or even husky sledding.
And how better to enjoy your winter snow escape than in at Kinross in the Gibbston Valley, where a morning of cutting through fresh powder on the mountain can be followed by a superb winery tour along the Queenstown wine trail, a blissful soak in the hot tub overlooking the valley, a relaxing yoga class in our Willow Room, or a fondue and quiz night in the cosy General Store bar?
Kinross Cottages is a superb Gibbston ski lodge experience just outside Queenstown, offering luxury vineyard cottage accommodation. Our boutique cottages offer exceptional privacy and a special feeling of seclusion, which you often don't find in a crowded ski-lodge.
It's just a very short stroll from your cottage door past the duck pond and the willow trees to our welcoming bistro, bar and cellar door, which is is the ideal place for wine tastings or enjoying a delicious lunch and dinner in the Gibbston Valley. We've got plenty going on in the evenings over winter, with quiz nights, movie nights, and our famous Friday nights when local winemakers, residents and guests gather together in the bar.
You might just want to relax by the giant fire out in the wine garden, rug over your knees and tucking into some delicious pizza straight from the wood-fired oven.
You can also buy restaurant-quality meals to take back to enjoy with a bottle of wine in your private, self-contained cottage if you feel like a romantic evening alone.
And did we mention that our excellent cooked and buffet breakfast is included in your room rate, and comes with an espresso coffee of your choice? What better way to start your day on the mountain, or fortify yourself for a fun day on the wine trail?
While some of us more spontaneous types are often loathe to book ski accommodation so far in advance, it's a no-brainer for those of you who want to save money and get the rooms you want, on the dates that you want them.
Booking for winter 6 months ahead means room rates are cheaper, you'll have better room availability to plan your trip, and you'll have something to dream about and look forward to for the next six happy months.
For cheap ski holidays around Queenstown, you can't beat booking in advance.In fact, at Kinross we're offering an incredible early bird 30% OFF Winter Accommodation Special, but only if you book now, when the mercury is rising across the Gibbston Valley.
For couples looking for a romantic winter getaway, or groups looking for a winery and ski experience with lots of adventure on offer, Kinross Cottages in the Gibbston Valley is the place to be. Forget the stag dos and tricky parking of increasingly hectic Queenstown—escape just outside the city into the vines with us instead. And if you want to only pay for every two of three nights you stay in winter, well, you know where we are.
Spontaneity is all well and good, but it's a terribly expensive way to a book a Queenstown skiing holiday.


Weekly Fitmesh Finds has rolled around again, and of course as the first of the month rolled around, so did many events! Two particularly interesting events I noticed on the calander this month were BuyNow and LuxeBox. Though very different in concept, they're both deviations from the crowded sim and laggy event styles that we tend to see more of in SL.
BuyNow – This event consists of a group of designers each round who create a new item, then sell it on marketplace. A simple, but effective concept. This means you can buy your items at your leisure using the links they send out each round, rather than battle to get in to a sim.
Luxebox – This event is almost like a 'luxury grab bag' style event. Essentially, you join the group in world each month and a pay a join fee. This fee is your payment for that round (the first month, May, is set at 1,000L though I suspect this will increase a far bit). Once you've joined the group, you wait until the 15th rolls around, and then you will be sent a HUD which will enable you to have all the surprise items sent to you from the designers taking part in the round. This concept has a little more risk involved – I mean, you have no idea what you'll get – but it is kinda fun, and the designers taking part (in this round at least) are all of such high quality that to me it's a no-brainer. We'll see after the 15th though – and I'll let you guys know what I find in the box!
Interesting times!! What do you think about the new event styles?
My problem with something like Lukebox is… will they let us know IN ADVANCE OF PAYING how many of the merchants will support our various mesh body choices?
As I am seeing a lot of them go one body specific only of late… I've been crossing a lot of merchants off my list. I would not want to pay into something only to later find out I can't use a notable number of them items.
Once I'm told I'm second class, I remember that.
Oh, I noted it last night in comments on last week's updates. But Razor/// has a bunch of new fitmesh as well that seems to have come out this week, and supports all 3 Bellezas, Maitreya, and both Slinks.
I am liking the idea of the marketplace-based event instead of having to wait days to get into a sim or hammering the servers trying to teleport. As long as there is a decent buying guide and access to demos, I am all in for this group.
LuxeBox: no. I do not buy stuff just to have it, for the most part, and much of the stuff in the box, I will not need or want. It's just an expensive way to bloat my inventory and I don't see myself being able to use everything, especially when it's from designers I don't know or really care about because the stuff they make is not in the ambit of the way I use SL. I am sure it's all really nice products, but I just don't need to keep adding so much stuff. And I'm not going to buy a big package just to get one thing.
It will also be a challenge for people who use mesh bodies other than Maitreya, Slink or Belleza. Erratic is awesome but exclusive to Maitreya. Her products will be useless for anyone else, and that is going to irk some people.
this gives a list of designers and what bodies they cover if you scroll down. If you fatpack everything blueberry gives or even reign then this a must have as you are paying 1000L for something that would cost you more on its own, the rest is a bonus. The designers will probably be different for each round. If you like a surprise then this is for you but not everyone likes surprises just as not everyone likes gachas or MM boards. To cater for everyone isnt possible so doing something different now and again to cater for different people can only be a good thing. If you dont want to take part thats fine, I just dont see the point of complaining about it.
As for events.. would be great if demos were given out a few days before the actual event in the event groups.. would save the hassle of having to take demos home and try to get back to an event.
Re luxebox… I count 5 fitmesh designers that do not support Belleza on that list.
Not going to happen with my money.
I don't care if some of the others do support it – my money will not go towards helping anyone that has made a choice to leave me out.
They have chosen to split us mesh body users into different camps, so I will stand in my camp.
The 1000L price is just an introductory price. I expect it to go up significantly, and then what happens?
I'm interested in new event types. I've joined this round of Luxebox because it's new and I suspect the stuff in this first one will be extra specially good for that reason. But talk of increasing prices puts me off. And if I wasn't a Maitreya user I'd probably be put off too.
The truth is as much as I'm keen about this round I don't think this event type is destined to succeed. 1000 (or more!) is a lot to spend in one lump on a bunch of unknowns. I think a lot of people won't want to risk it. I suspect uptake will be fair to begin with but drop off fast if prices are raised and then the designers won't want to take part that that will be the end of it.
Different people make buying decisions for different reasons. The Luxebox model is just not flexible enough to cater for all the different people's approaches.
I purchased the 'flagship' LuxeBox, mainly to see what it was all about. I have to say I was not as happy as I could have been. If you wear Maitreya's Lara you are in like Flynn since every thing in there had a version to fit that body and some of them flat out were ONLY for that body. Slink came in second, Belleza a far third and TMP only had a pair of shoes that were fitted for it. I wear Belleza and TMP so not the monthly event for me and my ilk apparently. I realize TMP has sort of shot themselves in the foot by not releasing their mesh weighting earlier but seriously, Belleza got ignored?
There were a few nice items that were not geared to a particular mesh body or mesh bodies at all like hair, a bed, a house and a pet. I did receive over $1000L worth of items but not the same value as some of my fellow group members–it was the Maitreya LuxeBox. I don't think I'll be supporting the next round of this since it is really not geared towards me but I wish them well.

'How many times do you make the same mistake?' Hemp shop owner in Luzerne County frustrated by legal confusion over his legal products
By Terrie Morgan-Besecker
Scranton Times-Tribune
Joseph Molitor owns the CBD Shop of Northeast Pennsylvania in West Pittston. (Jason Farmer/Scranton Times-Tribune)
Joseph Molitor believed his legal woes were over.
He was cleared of drug charges filed in 2019, after authorities mistook legal hemp flower he sells for marijuana, freeing the former Old Forge man to resume operating the CBD Shop of Northeastern Pennsylvania. He restarted the business in West Pittston, Luzerne County, as online-only, selling hemp and various cannabidiol-infused, or CBD, products without fear of arrest — or so he thought.
On May 27, West Pittston police seized $1,500 worth of product after a police officer responding to a request for an ambulance at Molitor's home noticed a smell of purported marijuana, which remains illegal in Pennsylvania except for verified medical users.
Molitor, 49, said he has lab tests that prove all the products, which include hemp flower and edible products, have less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, which makes them legal. THC is the main psychoactive compound in marijuana. He says police refused to examine the documents.
The case remains under investigation and no charges have been filed. Molitor said the seizure has caused him financial difficulties.
"They took $1,500 worth of product I'm sure I'll never get back," he said. "This is not a hobby. This is my livelihood."
Molitor's case illustrates the dilemma law enforcement and hemp sellers have faced since the 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp, attorneys who specialize in cannabis law said.
The problem is hemp looks and smells like marijuana. The only definitive way to tell them apart is to test for the THC level. Marijuana has a level of 0.5% or higher.
There are no tests readily available that give immediate results, however, said attorney William Roark of Lansdale, chairman of the Pennsylvania Bar Association's medical marijuana and hemp law committee. That's led to some people being wrongly charged.
"The law is evolving … however, there is still a good amount of confusion around this," Roark said. "Frankly, it's the science I think that needs to catch up … How is it that we're going to be able to determine on a relatively quick basis whether or not this product is legal or not?"
Locally, Molitor is one of three people charged in hemp-related cases. He was arrested after a Scranton postal employee thought they smelled marijuana coming from a package containing hemp flower Molitor mailed to a customer. Charges were dropped after subsequent testing showed the THC level was 0.34%. While the level was over the limit, it was within the margin of error for the testing method.
The other case was filed in Wyoming County Court against Hunter Smetana and Colby Kluk, owners of 3Buds LLC, a hemp and CBD dispensary with several locations including Scranton, after a Tunkhannock police officer found purported marijuana — which Smetana and Kluk claim was hemp — during a March 2020 traffic stop. That case is scheduled for trial in September.
Most hemp-related arrests occurred in the early days after the Farm Bill passed, said attorney Patrick Nightingale, director of the Pittsburgh chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. They have since subsided as authorities become more knowledgeable about the act.
"Law enforcement seems to understand that, yes, there are legal products that look exactly like marijuana and that's just something that they have to deal with," Nightingale said.
The latest case involving Molitor began after he called an ambulance for his wife. An officer obtained a search warrant after he said he smelled marijuana and saw items commonly used to package the drug. Police seized 19 items, which were sent to the state police lab for testing.
Nightingale is not involved in Molitor's case but said Molitor's description of what happened is troubling and could potentially open the department up to civil liability. He noted the odor of marijuana is no longer considered probable cause in criminal cases.
"The mere notion that we're going to take something that we're not sure whether or not it's legal, we're going to seize it, test it and then maybe return it to you, that to me is not a good way of moving forward with this type of investigation," Nightingale said.
West Pittston Police Chief Michael Turner, who was among the officers who served the warrant, defended the department's handling of the case, saying he had an obligation to investigate.
"At the end of the day, my job is to make sure he is abiding by all laws," Turner said. "We have to make sure our communities are safe."
Molitor said his business is no different than any others that sell CBD-infused products, which are readily available at multiple retail outlets, including many convenience stores. He suspects he was targeted because his is a home-based business.
Molitor said he understands police could not simply take his word. They had an obligation to evaluate evidence before seizing his product and refused to do that, he said.
"I don't know where the communication breakdown is, but I'm sick and tired of operating a legal business and going through this," he said. "How many times do you make the same mistake? You can't just keep violating people's rights."

Jo Serrapere and the LaFawndas
Gutsy, topical songs
By Sandor Slomovits | www.geminichildrensmusic.com
Nov 2, 2016 | Event Reviews, Uncategorized | 0 |
Jo Serrapere has a real talent for attracting good musicians to her bands–or maybe good musicians are attracted to her bands by her talent. She was one of the co-founders of the old-time country group Uncle Earl, then went on to front the bluesy Willie Dunns, formed the all-female roots trio Stella!, and now has a new CD with the LaFawndas, a band made up of musicians from each of those previous groups, plus some new faces.
The LaFawndas' debut CD, Dollar Store Nation, is vintage Serrapere: Gutsy, topical songs—the CD's title is a clue—with touches of biting humor. In "Turn My TV On" Serrapere sings about political misdirection and the brain-numbing, anesthetizing tendency of TV: "First it was communism, then drug wars we did fight / Now it's terrorism makes me lock my doors at night. Sometimes I feel like standing up 'til corporate greed is gone / But really I'm too tired and American Idol's on."
Serrapere's country-style love songs sound like they're straight from the Fifties, and she sings them with a voice reminiscent of Patsy Cline—no small achievement. But even these familiarly themed love-gone-bad songs have intriguing surprises: "If I were me I wouldn't treat you this way / If I were me I'd never gone away / If I were me I wouldn't be as cold as ice / If I were me I would take my own advice." And then the punch line, "Bet if you were you I'd get another chance."
Occasionally, though, her anger flares with words that were never heard in Fifties songs: "Someday you'll find this place is closed for business / 'cause it ain't your [f-ing] business anymore." And there are still more surprises. "Don't Let Me Die," a truly scary song, with an ominous, insistent beat, is sung from the vantage point of a clerk in a dollar store who's afraid of being killed in a robbery. Serrapere follows that with a gorgeous little lullaby for her daughter. It's just Serrapere and her ukulele, and the contrast could not be greater—except that the first song ends with sirens in the background, and the same sirens are jangling behind the lullaby.
It takes imaginative musicianship—as well as some real chops—to pull off these kinds of dramatics, and the LaFawndas are up to it. Multi-instrumentalist and in-demand sideman Drew Howard contributes great pedal steel and guitar licks; Tamineh Gueramy–Serrapere's former bandmate in Uncle Earl—bows in with fine fiddle; Jen Sygit and Laura Ann Bates of Stella! provide backing harmonies that could give the Chenille Sisters a run for their money; and you could look long to find a rhythm section tighter than bassist Dave Roof and drummer Stuart Tucker.
Jo Serrapere and the LaFawndas are at the Ark on November 5. The opening act is the Hoodang acoustic trio—David Rossiter, Dave Keeney, and Sophia Hanifi.

Father attended seminary in his country and was ordained a priest in July of 1998, for the Archdiocese of Kananga. He was appointed Diocesan Chancellor/Administrative Assistant and private secretary to the Archbishop. In 2002 his Archbishop asked him to come to the U.S. for pastoral experience and further studies in management.
From August 2002-May 2005, Father served as associate pastor for Our Lady Help of Christians, St. Angela and St. Martin De Porres on the West Side of Chicago, and from May 2005-January 2006, at St. Matthew Parish in Schaumburg, Illinois.
