Alberta Motorcycle Insurance In Vancouver

"Whoever wants to fish ...

get wet .. ass ". This was the phrase used to repeat to our professor of mathematics and physics at the Institute when he wanted to remind us of the value of the effort to achieve success (in this case, the victory meant nothing more than pass in order to go on vacation in summer, but equal).
In these times where it seems that anyone can succeed simply by having their 15 minutes of glory "? television by making a fool of what value is the effort in achieving professional success?

hard top. Even Spiderman.
Until recently it was believed that a genius was born, meaning that if you went to Mozart was because it's in his genes and that we devote a little more time to practice or not could only improve a little but not mark a big difference. But in recent years have shown that the influence of the effort and time devoted to practice and improve the natural abilities is what makes the difference between a genius and an "amateur." Dr. Ericsson Stockholm University has devoted much of his career studying what makes such experts be coming to the conclusion that to excel in something have invested hours of training (a numerical example are those 10,000 hours of practice to get to become an expert violinist, say). But time to practice consistently and deliberately, this is by choice (not because someone behind you pushing you to go to ballet class) requires certain qualities of character, one of them is guts, or rather a pair (of noses / balls / ovaries) already know.


So in a study also signed by the same doctor Ericsson, psychologist Angela Duckworth studied a group of children involved in spelling bees such as famous in Estates and also to check that those who spent more hours practicing were more successful (as expected) also found that one of the skills that set them apart from the others was that they were able to force yourself to do even when this activity will not result especially fun and according to the authors of this study due to the "guts" (no fish now think that no) that can be evaluated on a scale because of the consistency of the passions (for how long have you been interested in the next Picasso) and consistency of effort (how long it takes to throw in the towel).
I do not think anyone surprised that finding those people who can obsess with its passions are more able to withstand the challenges of adversity and do what it takes to achieve their goals ... and I speak not only to spell.

At the risk of falling into the self, given the circumstances of the past week with the news letter bomb of our beloved Minister of Science "? (If you have not already, take a look at the great letter in response Arturo Quirantes) seems to me that if there is something scientists and not only English, but especially those at home have is guts "to continue fighting for carrying out work which is his passion and that is not recognized or socially or salary terms even by our Minister.

But work and effort will continue to invest in science, even despite himself, here or abroad ... with a pair.

Wat Is A Stayfree Pad

Donate a small part of you to Science.

Henrietta Lacks, "mother" of HeLa.
Thanks to Iberia (and their delays) just finished the book Rebecca Skloot on HeLa cells and the woman who was its origin: Henrietta Lacks. I must admit I not only liked but I highly recommend it as a perfect blend human and scientific literature, if you understand what I mean. Unfortunately, I do not think the sale is still a translation, but here you have a small comment about the book in English .

However, with everything that is interesting and the various controversial issues that touch on that I think is most interesting at this point in the letter genomes and data protection policies that are laughter, and where capitalism comes to levels where it is possible to patent and hamper the public benefit of knowledge or the identification of genes (as I wrote in earlier , it seems that this situation could end if the American Court of Justice maintains the verdict against the BRCA gene patent) is the membership of tissues and / or biological samples that "we" in the hospital after treatment (see biopsy), giving birth, or even after a simple blood test.

The case exposes the book, a patient whom to undergo treatment for cervical cancer were extracted samples without their consent, samples that subsequently led to the HeLa cell culture line appears a strange case, which at the time of informed consent has no reason to be (If dates from the decade of the 50 in an American hospital for patients of color) but apparently there are precedents in the United States in the Court of Justice which gave the right to researchers without the consent / knowledge of the patient tissues used extracted from them for marketing. The reason given is that once you were no longer owned and biological material since it is discarded (by biopsy, tumors ...) can not be held accountable to the hospitals by their use of them as well if given the right the patient that inhibit the progress of science, say (for details, if Moore).

Would you give your heart to science?
In Europe the situation is somewhat different as reflected in the report European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods in 1998 (although the group's name sounds pretty strange and induces chills pseudo) at least in this report only focus on discussing the benefits that would enhance humados tissue donation in order to limit the research in animal models. This report presents the reasons why in Europe, in sharp contrast with the U.S. most tissues transplantable not lost, mainly due to the ethical and legal implications for physicians may have to transfer these tissues for research in the absence of clear legislation (hence, the majority of human tissue for research is imported from the U.S.). However, in recent years are putting initiatives in Europe to organize the availability and tissue distribution of human experimentation for example in Britain or Switzerland. Although the great difference between Europe and the United States about the donation of human tissue for experimentation is that in old Europe possible must be an active donation and informed consent. In Europe it would be illegal tissues removed from patients were used for profit and make someone rich at the expense of selling the tumor cells taken from a patient.

On the other side of the fight to raise awareness for the donation of transplantable organs have learned that it is difficult to combat social prejudices about what organ donation means and cases like that of Henrietta Lacks, even distant in time and distance, do a disservice to progress in the awareness of the importance to the advancement of science and the benefit to everyone who has the gift for show that capitalism reaches even the cellular level. Fortunately there are significant efforts to raise awareness as proposed by the association BrainNet Europe explaining how and why the donation, in this case, your brain, Science. We Need BRRRRRAIIIINSSS!

"Colors of evil child" (Illustration: Henry)


__Börek Cretense__ Potatoes (thinly sliced)
Zucchini (sliced \u200b\u200bthin) 1 bunch spearmint
1 / 2 cup milk Feta Cheese
Sal

ground black pepper
corn flour (cornstarch) olive oil

3 sheets of filo pastry ( * home or frozen) * Place flour in a bowl, add salt and mix. After doing well in the center and pour olive oil, ouzo, 1 whole egg plus a clear and yeast.
Mix the dough by adding water as needed. Stretch helping with the corn flour (which keep it from breaking

and stick) to achieve a desired thickness (as thin as possible). Cut the dough into thirds and make three sheets of pasta over the font size that we will use for baking.
For more specific instructions on how to make the homemade phyllo Bosphorus can check here. and also wash and cut zucchini.

5 /
About potatoes will have a layer of thin slices of zucchini.
6 / on these well-crumbled feta cheese seasoning with salt, pepper, chopped mint and a little olive oil.
7 / repeat a second layer of both vegetables, more potatoes, more zucchini and more seasoning.
8 / will place another sheet of just covering the inside edge of the dish. Oil the top of our Kritik boureki and from the sides will overcome philo dough sticking thus closing the pie.
with milk bathe the entire top of pie and, optionally, sprinkle some pepper and finely chopped mint.

Optionally the surface can spread some sesame oil and a layer of hard cheese from sheep Cypriot type Kεφαλότυρι
(Kefalotyri) or Macedonian Μανούρι (Manouri). It will also be a good Φέτα (Feta) (although this will cost a bit more grating properly.) Auque, in the end, we have added some
cured Manchego.

With a sharp knife will cut a sheet upper edge as an indicative division of the future to help lots and from mass to be very crisp philo and we easily break . 9 /

in a preheated oven at 180 º C cook for 45 minutes (or until our filo pastry is browned and potatoes cooked - whether these are at their recommended pierced with a toothpick before finally extrer oven-).
10 / The result is really crisp and aromatic. It is advisable to let it sit for ten minutes covered with a damp cloth to soften the top layer a bit so you can cut better. Anyway this top layer is broken and the portion irregularly, once served, have a rustic, home, ultimately as ca we like ' Bosphorus.
Afiyet olsun! Bon appetit!

Pepe Gonzalez: "The father of Vanpirella
"




José González (Pepe Gonzalez) was, is and will be one of my most admired illustrators. I was lucky to know him and I dedicate this picture that I keep with affection. This was in third edition of the Barcelona Comic Fair, back in 1983. González also an illustrator elite was an excellent cartoonist and, thus, became known worldwide after birth the character Vampirella , exuberant woman who disturbed the dreams of more than one its readers. Are remarkable pencil drawings and magnificent portraits, among them Marilyn Monroe's , Dean Jeam or Greta Garbo . Pepe González left us in 2009 in his hometown, Barcelona, \u200b\u200bat the age of 70. I, like many other fans "comics" not forget your contributions and great savoir faire, and his kindness that, despite the almost thirty elapsed, I remember with tenderness. Serve this small tribute to glorify his memory and let it be known throughout the world in Bosphorus

were, are and will, fans Pepe great.

Before Period Comes Is Mucus Wet

Cunnilingus twisted.

Since I moved to Germany one of my hobby horses is being multilingualism. Many people have realized the mistakes I make in my own native language and although I could not secure with absolute certainty whether I have noticed that in recent years, the more often I have spoken in another language I found it harder to "come home." Now I find to fight with three in those days when mental capacity is not enough for most are too juggle. And so today I want to talk about the science behind language learning.


There are two theories about the origin of language: the biological theory of Chomsky (1959) and learning Skinner (1957). However, studies of phonetic perception in infants one year showed how cognitive, social computing and combine to give rise to language learning not look like the model of learning by operant conditioning and reinforcement of Skinner or the comprehensive overview of Chomsky's parametric settings. In other words, the discussion remains open and in some forums, bitter ( Child's Play )

Language learning is one that could be considered classic examples of what is called critical period in neurobiology (also described for the development of senses such as vision, for example) and that in this case means that there a period in which learning ability is high and once overcome learning new languages \u200b\u200bis much more complicated. That's why children and even babies are much more able to learn languages \u200b\u200bthan adults, despite the higher cognitive development of the latter. Grrr y. .. if only a language! What do you think of the rage that these dwarfs are not two feet from the ground up on the ski slopes with snot hanging out and give you not one but many turns you almost do not know how to put your feet in line ... C 'est la vie.


There are several hypotheses about the causes of this temporal limitation on the learning of new languages \u200b\u200bin adulthood. In the 60 Lennenberg suggested that the growth of the corpus callosum was responsible for this impairment. More recently, Newport has proposed the hypothesis of "less is more" for which the limited intellectual capacities of children would learn better babies simplified language that they speak (1990), Patricia Kuhl proposed the concept of neural commitment by which the architecture and neural circuits for infant / child are developed to maximize the efficiency of language processing to which the child is exposed, and once established, this architecture will impede the learning of those patterns that do not conform to the known and this is where you enter all the other languages. Experiments in this laboratory have shown that as early as 9 months of age can learn a foreign language for the first time (2003 Kuhl ) and the presence of human beings, the real contact improved learning. The importance of social interaction in learning / language development may be due among other reasons, increasing attention and interest, such as interaction with parents and guardians directed infants' attention to the figures and images that were related to adding new vocabulary contextual information and thus facilitate learning. So, as much as Home Inglés sell us the wonder of its methods of language learning is most effective real interaction, to live the language, creating a social context that increase the interest and facilitate recall by association, so please to work and take it get yourself a foreigner gives canes, the kind of language is most effective (but not cheap) you can get.
Better not. Do as she picks up the suitcases and go.

But what differences between the brains of bilingual people and those who are beginning to learn a new language? Can be followed by looking at the role brain structures and progress in mastering a new language? The answer is yes.
Since the late 90's knows that there are differences in activation patterns depending on the age at which you learn the second language, bilingual PET or fMRI studies show a strong left hemisphere activation for the native language that overlap in activation patterns of the second language, but when the second language is learned later the neural circuits used for the second language differ from those of the native tend to be less lateralized and vary between individuals (for a summary of all areas involved in learning the different forms of language, I recommend reading the work of Neville et al ). Likewise, it has been shown that in the beginning when you do not have much control over the second language (especially in semantics and syntax, or grammar), there is a high activity in the cortex prefontal, especially in the areas of language and less activation in temporal region (1). these differences tend to disappear as you increase the domain of the second language. As regards structural changes, the work of Stein et al (2010) studied the structural changes that 5-month learning German students whose native language was English and showed a correlation between structural changes in gray matter (mainly composed of neuronal cell bodies or bodies / glial) of left inferior frontal gyrus (where Broca's area) and increased competition in the second language. However, in absolute terms in the second language competence and the gain of gray matter are not correlated, meaning that learning occurs a reorganization, but the relationship between these two events is not direct, we can not that gray matter how much you earn more about bilingualism are. Remember buddies and repeat after me: "Correlation does not imply causality."

areas where increased gray matter density correlates with increased competition in the second language. Yellow (left frontal gyrus.) Red (left anterior temporal lobe.) Stein et al.

In a final twist an article appeared this year offers the possibility to predict the ability of parendizaje a second language based on the activity of the caudate-spindle circuit in the left hemisphere for what they studied a group of Chinese children of 10 years who had begun to study English as a second language at 6, they were put in a scanner (fMRI) and measured the changes that occurred in their reading skills and understanding in a year. They found a correlation between activity in these areas and also reading ability was specific to the second language thus concluding that it is possible to use these measures as a proxy for learning ability. However, Chinese is a symbolic language used to read different brain areas is therefore expected that the integration path for English is independent of the Chinese. So do not run yet the scanner because it will not give the answer the million: Will I be able to deal with English / German / francés...o it's time to surrender?

I though decreasing curve damn I continue to rely on brain plasticity in these meetings tandem: beer + conversation = guirilike in no time.

"(I) لاللتعذيب" (Illustration: Henry)
___ the Bosphorus Tapas Tavern: "The Chicken Croquettes" ___

I do not think there is a cover more representative of what, as a cover, we imagine when we refer to this term. And, well, there is not one of the animals of the tavern, not one of the souls of bar and beer at the bar that has not succumbed to the temptation to sink his teeth into a golden croquettes, crisp in its surface and soft, fluffy and soft on the inside ... Behind the "parapet"
glass lids that protect hands and fingers nimble guided by greed and could incur frontages (ALL
raids evils if you want), behind these walls that let in light but not the perfume dishes and tortillas, rest, placid, poultry croquettes , Cod or cheese, meat or vegetables ... ... and, indeed, become the objects ignored in appetizing snack and moon lunera jingle-bell that echoes in our minds after the drink further aromatic hop element ... Croquettes alike who like the toothless drunk and infants in search of nothing frugal merendola, which are in the spotlight late at night and in early (and magic) which was lost evenings and sleepless , finally go to the temple of the drunks, the pimps and housewives tipple ... ... there, as one man, crouched in the brush elbows resting is the wailing wall where lay the mats in open collusion with old ashtrays, lighters and sear farias medium. And it is there, no doubt it, where the prospect is almost insurmountable, and the vision of the lid is coming little more than a little mystical and disruptive the senses. Croquette you campaigning, croquette holy kibble as the ravenous mouths of the bard, the bard and sacacuartos that, argente gab, gab, I take away pity and generous invitation to call a round without return postage ... (Il.lustració of tots els Pollastre: Marc ) But to be fair, we should not forget, the eye patch, the croquette was suspected germ of evil atavistic, Mediterranean fever, which gave birth to sin and bore the pains of gut and anus ... kibble daughter of the remains of rotting they broke off the stove and dishes stranded (if unfortunate) that da kibble that damn bad name croquetil community benefactor and battered world without blemish. Today, here, we are left with the best, with the homemade cakes and hearty thumbs molded with materials from home and who have genuine food product credential. And today, here, we launched the world's prescription bosphorianas croquettes, served the late twilight beings who recite verses Kavvadias Hikmet

or ... or

Brosa : "Sota pluja deployed the world map" ...
are ultimately our croquettes

"survival" ... we hope you like them ... and we suggest can down envisioning the excellent 17-minute short "croquettes bird" led Lluis Hereu and shot in 2006 in Havana

Part 2:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0esxurI16VI ___INGREDIENTES___ For Bechamel croquettes base

. 1 onion
. 150 gr. (Approx.) Wheat flour . 50 gr.
Butter. ¾ pint of whole milk . Nutmeg
. Black pepper
. Sal

For the batter:
. Breadcrumbs

. Egg

. Wheat flour

(and olive oil for frying)


For the filling: three chicken leg quarters (which may be substituted for turkey, rabbit, veal, lamb ...)
seasoned with our blend:
Romero,
Oregano, Thyme
,
ground black pepper,
sa l
dried parsley. 1 / We'll have the chicken leg quarters in a baking dish and season well with our blend of seasoning and a splash of olive oil.

2 / oven to 200 º C until browned (40 min. Approx.)

4 /
Using a meat grinder to pass domestic get very small pieces, almost pulverized. 6 /
8 /
flour cook a few minutes until it turns a light golden color and add the nutmeg and freshly ground black pepper. Cook a little.
9 / It's time to start adding the milk that have been warmed previously. This should be done gradually, in small amounts that will dilute the flour.
10 / Gradually all milk will mix with the flour until a smooth white sauce.
11 / Now we introduce the grilled chicken and chopped. Gently swirl so that everyone will join in mass.
12 / and cook over low heat, stirring continuously until a dough that acquire a bright tone and texture that appears will detach from the walls of the pot where it's cooking. Mass should be quite thick because it later when friamos, we run the risk that we dismantle
, opening, or undo but, yes, keep in mind that when running the mass will still significantly thicken.
13 /
We'll have the dough in a clean container and we will cover with plastic wrap to prevent drying surface.
14 / Once tuned, we will introduce our dough in the refrigerator for four or five hours to acquire consistency. 15 / Three are going to bowl put flour, egg and bread crumbs.

16 /
will take small pieces of dough to mold them into shape ... croquette.
can accompany the croquettes with a sauce mayonnaise or tartar type but, if served with a good tank cold beer do not think anyone I missed anything at the plate. Well, hope you like !
