French Trial Ended Due to Deaths Among Patients on Docetaxel-Doxorubicin Regimen
A breast cancer chemotherapy regimen that involved simultaneous administration of docetaxel and doxorubicin suppressed white blood cell activity in 40 percent of patients and led to two treatment-related deaths, concludes a report on the European RAPP-01 clinical trial published in the May 18 Journal of the American Medical Association.
The first death occurred in March 2000, when a 49-year-old patient became ill with abdominal pain 7 days after receiving the doxorubicin-plus-docetaxel regimen under study. She developed febrile neutropenia 2 days later and subsequently died. An autopsy was not performed, and the steering committee concluded that the death was "not specifically attributable" to docetaxel and decided to continue the trial. In January 2001, a second woman developed febrile neutropenia. She went into septic shock 6 days after her fourth cycle of doxorubicin and docetaxel but later recovered. In January 2003, a 39-year-old woman fell ill 6 days after first receiving the regimen. She died a week later from septic shock. The investigators ended the trial and switched the remaining patients in the docetaxel arm to the standard regimen of doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide. Read more
Advocates: Helping to Forge a Path to 2015
We use the term "cancer community" because, perhaps unlike any other disease area, there is a vast collection of groups and individuals who play an essential role in the cancer research enterprise. In my time as director of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), I've come to more fully appreciate the complexity, robustness, and diversity of this collective, especially with regard to the advocacy community and its remarkable success in advancing cancer research.
Just last week, for example, I participated in an event celebrating the 10th anniversary of the National Breast Cancer Coalition's Project LEAD. This program has helped to educate breast cancer advocates about the science of breast cancer, allowing them to work more closely with the research community in promoting new approaches to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.

French Trial Ended Due to Deaths Among Patients on Docetaxel-Doxorubicin Regimen
A breast cancer chemotherapy regimen that involved simultaneous administration of docetaxel and doxorubicin suppressed white blood cell activity in 40 percent of patients and led to two treatment-related deaths, concludes a report on the European RAPP-01 clinical trial published in the May 18 Journal of the American Medical Association.
The first death occurred in March 2000, when a 49-year-old patient became ill with abdominal pain 7 days after receiving the doxorubicin-plus-docetaxel regimen under study. She developed febrile neutropenia 2 days later and subsequently died. An autopsy was not performed, and the steering committee concluded that the death was "not specifically attributable" to docetaxel and decided to continue the trial. In January 2001, a second woman developed febrile neutropenia. She went into septic shock 6 days after her fourth cycle of doxorubicin and docetaxel but later recovered. In January 2003, a 39-year-old woman fell ill 6 days after first receiving the regimen. She died a week later from septic shock. The investigators ended the trial and switched the remaining patients in the docetaxel arm to the standard regimen of doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide.
Investigators have long known that combining docetaxel with doxorubicin can drop white cell counts, according to Dr. Jennifer Low, a senior investigator in the NCI's Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program. Hence, the report underscores the importance of providing prophylaxis. "Febrile neutropenia is a serious risk with any doxorubicin-docetaxel regimen," said Dr. Low. "Prophylaxis - especially the use of growth factors - is used in all of the current trials with this regimen to help prevent febrile neutropenia and reduce the risk of septic death."
Because the trial was terminated early, the investigators were unable to determine if the docetaxel regimen extended survival. "At this time the doxorubicin-docetaxel regimen should not be recommended outside of carefully designed clinical trials," write the authors, who hail from several French research institutions including the Centre Rene Huguenin, Centre Leon Berard, and the Sainte Catherine Institute Breast Clinic.
While the docetaxel regimen caused less nausea and vomiting than the standard therapy, it was responsible for 72 of the 87 severe adverse events (82.8 percent) reported to the French Medicines Agency. Most of these events (87.5 percent) were related to febrile neutropenia.
One hundred twenty-six of 311 women (40.5 percent) receiving doxorubicin-docetaxel developed neutropenia accompanied by fever. In contrast, only 22 of 316 women (7 percent) taking the standard doxorubicin-cylcophosphamide therapy developed febrile neutropenia. The rates of neutropenia in the docetaxel arm were so high because, unlike similar studies conducted in the United States, the French trial did not employ prophylaxis for neutropenia. Patients received granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) only after their white cell count had already dropped.
Studies of doxorubicin-docetaxel combinations that employ prophylactic antibiotics or G-CSF report substantially lower rates of febrile neutropenia, according to Dr. Low. The Breast Cancer International Research Group 001 trial documented neutropenia in 24 percent of patients who received docetaxel, while the corresponding figure for the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project B-27 trial was 21 percent.
Because the major risk from neutropenia is blood-borne infection, the antibiotic ciprofloxacin is sometimes given prophylactically to patients receiving docetaxel. But, said Dr. Low, "Most physicians now prefer using hematopoeitic colony-stimulating factors" because it boosts white cell production and is more effective than antibiotics.

Advocates: Helping to Forge a Path to 2015
We use the term "cancer community" because, perhaps unlike any other disease area, there is a vast collection of groups and individuals who play an essential role in the cancer research enterprise. In my time as director of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), I've come to more fully appreciate the complexity, robustness, and diversity of this collective, especially with regard to the advocacy community and its remarkable success in advancing cancer research.
Just last week, for example, I participated in an event celebrating the 10th anniversary of the National Breast Cancer Coalition's Project LEAD. This program has helped to educate breast cancer advocates about the science of breast cancer, allowing them to work more closely with the research community in promoting new approaches to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
NCI recognizes the extensive reach and influence of the advocacy community - as advisors, educators, fund raisers, and legislative activists. NCI's Office of Liaison Activities (OLA) coordinates several programs that provide cancer research advocates with meaningful opportunities to offer guidance and feedback on NCI's priorities and initiatives.
Through the Consumer Advocates in Research and Related Activities (CARRA) program, for example, individual advocates can participate in the routine but important work that underlies much of what we do at NCI. Because of their expertise in patient issues, for instance, individual CARRA members are often asked to participate in the peer-review process, providing a consumer's perspective on research proposals.
The Director's Consumer Liaison Group (DCLG) gives the advocacy community a direct conduit to the NCI Director's office. DCLG, NCI's only all-consumer advisory group, played an important role in the launch earlier this year of a pilot initiative, the NCI "Listens and Learns" Web site. In its short existence, this Web site - http://ncilistens.cancer.gov/ - has provided an important venue for cancer advocates to voice their opinions on some of the most pressing issues facing NCI.
OLA also coordinates teleconferences with advocacy groups to help them better understand and educate their constituencies about important new issues. Several months ago, for example, OLA coordinated a trans-HHS teleconference to clarify changes in Medicare reimbursement policies for cancer care. We plan to conduct a formal series of such educational teleconferences.
NCI also is engaged in a diverse array of initiatives with individual advocacy groups. Last year, the institute joined with the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network to launch an initiative that will create a map pinpointing researchers and clinical trials focused on pancreatic cancer. The goal is to facilitate the development of national strategies to maximize and leverage resources in the fight against pancreatic cancer.
The Lance Armstrong Foundation announced last week that it has sold more than 47.5 million of its yellow "Live Strong" bracelets. This demonstrates what can be accomplished by committed advocates with a good idea. The cancer advocacy community is rife with people who have been affected by cancer in one way or another and decided to take action to help others. I welcome their participation in the effort to achieve the 2015 goal, and I continue to be awed by the willingness and motivation that cancer advocates display every day.

Gene Discoveries Driving New Treatments for Kidney Cancer
It was 12 years ago that Drs. Marston Linehan, Berton Zbar, and colleagues from NCI's Center for Cancer Research (CCR) and elsewhere published a wonderful discovery. For many years they had studied families with Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome, a rare, hereditary disease associated with benign tumors in multiple organs, but also with a form of the most common type of kidney cancer: clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The work paid off. They had linked VHL to a single gene on chromosome 3 - the first gene found to cause kidney cancer. Research done since that time has shown that 60 to 80 percent of patients with nonhereditary, or sporadic, RCC have a VHL mutation.
Drs. Linehan, Zbar, and their NCI colleagues have led the search for additional genes associated with other forms of kidney cancer, an effort that has taken on increasing importance "because of the steady, relentless increase in its incidence since the early 1970s," Dr. Linehan says.
More than 36,000 patients are now diagnosed with kidney cancer every year. Although patients diagnosed with early stage disease have a 95 percent 10-year survival, in advanced disease, the odds of surviving for 2 years are less than 1 in 5. The current treatments for advanced disease are interferon α and interleukin 2 (IL-2). Although IL-2-based therapy can result in complete responses and may be effective in up to 20 percent of patients, it takes specialized expertise to administer and can be accompanied by serious side effects.
Since the VHL gene discovery, the researchers have discovered two other kidney cancer genes (see table), all via studies of families with hereditary forms of kidney cancer conducted at the NIH Clinical Center.
Of these genes, VHL has been the most intensively studied. In particular, researchers have been able to map some of the intracellular signaling pathways affected by this gene. Part of VHL's function is to help suppress tumor growth. But when a mutation arises in VHL that either silences it or greatly decreases its activity, it can have a serious domino effect, explains Dr. William G. Kaelin, a leading expert on the molecular biology of kidney cancer at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. First, there is an overproduction of a transcription factor called HIF. This, in turn, spurs the production of growth factors such as VEGF and PDGF, both of which fuel cancer cell growth.
So the discovery of these genes, says Dr. Ronald M. Bukowski, director of the Experimental Therapeutics Program at the Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Center, has been significant because it has allowed kidney cancer researchers to more rationally investigate agents "that might affect the pathways these genes modulate."
Over the last few years, in fact, a number of early-phase clinical trials testing a variety of targeted agents against advanced kidney cancer have generated much excitement. Earlier this month at the ASCO annual meeting, for example, researchers from the University of California, San Francisco reported on the results of a 52-patient, phase II trial testing AG-013736, an experimental agent that targets VEGF and PDGF. At 1-year follow-up, the drug prevented disease progression in three-quarters of the patients.
Hopeful results also have been reported with the experimental agents SU011248 and sorafenib, as well as with targeted drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of other cancers such as bevacizumab (Avastin), which targets VEGF, and erlotinib (Tarceva), which targets EGFR, also in the VHL pathway.
These findings have significantly changed the perception of kidney cancer, says Dr. Kaelin. "Kidney cancer was one of those solid tumors that medical oncologists always thought were pretty intractable in terms of chemotherapy," he notes. "So it's ironic that…there is now a lot of excitement about using targeted agents against it."
Dr. Bukowski argues that more than just the perception of this disease has changed. The findings from these trials are demonstrating "a changed paradigm for the treatment of [advanced kidney cancer]," he says. "Whenever you change how you approach the treatment of a disease, that's big news. That's clearly something that's happening with this illness."
Dr. Linehan's laboratory recently launched a phase II clinical trial of an antibiotic derivative called 17AAG for the treatment of kidney tumors in patients with VHL disease. Dr. Len Neckers, a principal investigator in the Urologic Oncology Branch, worked with NCI's Developmental Therapeutics Program and Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program to translate 17AAG to the clinic. This agent blocks a so-called molecular chaperone that protects HIF - and other critical signaling proteins - from damage when tissues are under the stress of low oxygen. In laboratory and animal models, 17AAG has shown impressive antitumor activity.
Over the more than 2 decades of conducting this research, Dr. Linehan recounts, the progress has been slow but steady.
"You can cure tumors in animals, you can cure them in the lab," he says. "We just have to go one step at a time. We're in this for the long haul, and I have hope that we'll get there."
By Carmen Phillips
Drs. Linehan and Zbar have worked together for more than two decades on determining the molecular basis of kidney cancer in order to provide the foundation for finding more effective treatments. They talked with the NCI Cancer Bulletin about where they have been and where this research is headed.
Can you talk about the role of studying families in your work over the years?
Dr. Zbar: We sent letters to physicians in the United States and Canada to recruit families with hereditary renal carcinoma. Physicians were targeted based on the specific clinical characteristics of the disease under study. I worked with a small NCI team to evaluate renal carcinoma families, which included conducting detailed medical histories and collecting blood samples for DNA analysis at our laboratory at NCI-Frederick.
We then set up a large, multidisciplinary team to evaluate patients. We constructed family trees and performed genetic mapping, then physical mapping in the hope of finding the disease genes. We've seen families from all over this country and, really, all over the world.
After everything that's been accomplished, is it now just a matter of seeing which agents are most effective in clinical trials?
Dr. Zbar: It would be extremely useful to identify molecular markers to determine which patients will be the best candidates for the various targeted treatments. The presence (or absence) and specific type of somatic VHL mutation would be one genetic alteration that might predict response of metastatic renal carcinomas to drug therapy.

Ginger Treatment For Cancer-Related Nausea and Vomiting
Name of the Trial
Principal Investigator
Why Is This Trial Important?
In this trial, researchers are testing the ability of two different doses (lower vs. higher) of the herb ginger to treat delayed nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy. Ginger is believed to affect receptors in the digestive tract for the neurotransmitter serotonin. This action is similar to conventional antinausea drugs.
"Ginger has been shown to be effective in a number of clinical trials against nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness, pregnancy, and postoperative recovery," said Dr. Zick. "With this trial, we hope to determine its efficacy and safety for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.
"We hope ginger will be effective for patients who continue to experience delayed nausea and vomiting despite treatment with other antinausea drugs," Dr. Zick added.

Cancer Risk Prediction Models: Priorities for Future Research
More than 100 researchers met last May at an NCI-sponsored workshop on statistical models for predicting a person's risk of developing cancer. A detailed report on the meeting, including recommendations for future research on cancer risk prediction models, appears in a commentary in the May 18 Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Participants identified research priorities and resources in the areas of: 1) revising existing breast cancer risk assessment models and developing new models; 2) encouraging the development of new risk models; 3) obtaining data to develop more accurate risk models; 4) supporting validation mechanisms and resources; 5) strengthening model development efforts and encouraging coordination; and 6) promoting effective cancer risk communication and decision-making.
The workshop included epidemiologists, statisticians, geneticists, clinicians, and genetic counselors, among others. They identified strengths and limitations of cancer and genetic susceptibility prediction models in use or under development, and they explored methodological issues related to their development, evaluation, and validation.
"This meeting brought together a diverse group of scientists to talk about how we can develop and improve our current statistical tools for predicting the development of cancer," says Dr. Andrew Freedman of NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences, who co-chaired the meeting.
"There's been a lot of interest in cancer risk prediction models, and now is an important time to explore issues involved in developing, applying, and evaluating these models," says Dr. Freedman.
The workshop focused attention on risk prediction models and "actually has spurred quite a bit of research activity" since last spring, notes Dr. Ruth Pfeiffer of NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, (DCEG), the other co-chair. DCEG staff are working on models for melanoma and colorectal cancer, and criteria for evaluating risk models.
Among the findings to emerge from the workshop, Dr. Pfeiffer says, is the importance of communication between the people who develop the models and the people who use them.
The number of risk models has grown steadily since a model for predicting the risk of heart disease was published in 1976. In the late 1980s, researchers began to publish models that predicted a woman's risk of breast cancer based on such risk factors as age, age at menarche, age at first live birth, and family history of the disease.
Today, statistical models are widely used by physicians to make decisions about cancer prevention and treatment. Like clinicians and researchers, the public is interested in cancer risk prediction, as is clear from the number of related Web sites, handbooks, and information resources from professional societies.
A number of companies in the United States and the United Kingdom offer genetic risk profiling. "With the proliferation of new risk models, there's been a concern that the models are used appropriately, and this was one reason for the workshop," notes Dr. Freedman.

While its camera isn't best-in-class and Windows Phone's underwhelming app selection still stings, the elegant and sophisticated HTC One M8 is an enticing alternative to Nokia models.
Verizon subscribers can't beat the polished-metal HTC One Remix for value and style.
The One E8 offers the high-end HTC experience in glossy colors and a plastic case, but without a unique selling point, there's little reason to buy this expensive device.
Run-of-the-mill specs paired with sleek, minimalist designs make the LG G Pads attractive budget buys, but there's little to distinguish them from similarly performing slates in the same price range.
This phablet packs the Xperia Z's beautiful design in a supersized 6.44-inch frame and looks set to give the Samsung Galaxy Note range a run for its money.
Pricing not available
With its slick metal body, the HTC One Mini 2 is among the most luxurious compact phones around. HTC, however, has given it a set of specs that put it more alongside the dirt-cheap Moto G than the One M8. This is definitely not the flagship One M8 in a more compact form. If style is of the utmost importance, it's worth checking out, but the Moto G is much better value.
If you want a sturdy, easy-to-use keyboard accessory that looks nearly as good as the iPad itself, the Belkin Qode Thin Type is one of the best.
Quibbles aside, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones are a modestly improved version of the already spectacular model they're based on, and among the best-sounding pairs you'll find for less than $200.
Unless you need a great deal on earbuds, there's no reason to buy the HTC One M8 Harman Kardon Edition.
With its powerful processor, great camera, decent screen and gorgeous, waterproof design, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is the best small Android phone around.

Hi All...
Yesterday I picked up a Super C with cultivators and side dressers for my organic corn crops. I'm not a hippie radical... they just pay more for organics, so I do what the market demands! It fit between the fenders on the trailer with about 1/4 inch to spare for it's 5 hour long ride from Toledo, OH to SW PA.
We had a Super C when I was very little in the early 80's, and it was for cultivating the sweet corn. This one has dressers on it, and each bucket has two tubes, it has a splitter. It also came with the sheilds for the corn rows, and all new shovels.
Where is the serial number? It should be under the seat, but the tag is gone, it is stamped somewhere?
It has some kind of suspension seat on it that's badly worn, and will just fall over backward into the tool box as the strap is rusted thru. I want to convert it to just the regular, as I remember it, steel seat with the big cone shaped coil spring. Anyone have one??
It has the round fiberglass bins for the dressers, were those factory? They look to be the same ones we had on the IH 56 planter we used to have. I need the lids if someone has them or reproducing them?
I've seen these cultivators on restored tractors and they are always blue... are they IH or aftermarket? I see some blue paint in places on these ones.
I'll post pictures tomorrow... someone along the way painted it with a paint brush in a lighter red... ugh. I'll repaint it this winter, but it's going to be a working machine, so it has to earn it's keep for now.
FYI... this guy is selling 2 more SC's... one is exceptional condition, I didn't see it run, and the other has been sitting out back, not bad looking but the exhaust has been open to the weather for 2 years, I put a bucket over it when I was there. He also has an A or SA all rusting up and 2 140's with cultivators. I can pass his info along if someone wanted to look at them in NW Ohio.
Thanks for your help!

It was the best experience I have had with a storage company, Mr. Ray was very attentive, informative and even offer and brought me and daugther water to our storage unit. It was a very very hot day, and we greatly appreicated his thoughtfulness. Because of his thoughtfulness I will never rent with any other storage company again, but Uncle Bobs thanks, thanks again to Mr. Ray for making this a good day for me and my family, i will never forget it.Leaisa from Baton Rouge, LA

I needed unit for emergency and the associate Jodi gave me all of the options and gave me time to think; she did not rush my decision at all and was very helpful. She has awesome customer service skills and is great at multitasking. I still have a unit currently and will always look for Uncle Bob from here on out. Associates like Jodi are what make businesses succeed!!Katrina from Baton Rouge, LA.

Before making a decision about where to store my items I read reviews about several different storage place. Uncle Bob's storage had very good reviews and I was not disappointed at all. Michelle was fantastic and very helpful. This is not my first time using a storage unit but this is the first time I have been this happy with a place. I am pregnant and due in a couple of months, Michelle went so far as to ask me to bring my little boy to see her sometime after he was born. So many places don't take the time to get to know there customers this place is not one of them!Sunshine from Independence, LA

I can't say enough good things about this company. I had my unit almost 3yrs and I never had a problem. When I was moving out I didn't have anyone to help me on that last day and I called and was told that I had until the 5th of the month to empty it out. She was so nice about it and I was so glad to have the extra days.Sarah from D. S., LA

What a pleasure it is these days to work with a business who is knowledgeable and goes above and beyond the call to make a customer feel satisfied and happy. I'm in my 70's and had never had the need to rent a storage locker before....it was all new to me, but both Jayme and Connie made me feel comfortable, assuring me my personal belonging would be fine and safe. Knowing I could call on them at any time if the need arises, was also very re-assuring. Thank you for taking the time to put my mind at ease.Laura from Greenwell Springs, LA

First Prince of Persia Movie Trailer Debuts (Updated)The debut trailer for Disney's game-inspired Prince of Persia film has arrived, offering a glimpse of the Jake Gyllenhaal's antics as the titular (and time-traveling) prince.
Partially written by franchise creator Jordan Mechner, directed by Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Caribbean), the film rolls out to theaters in late May.
A higher quality version of the trailer is expected tomorrow--for now, you'll have to make due with this blocky YouTube embed.
Update: As expected, a much higher quality version of the trailer is now available.

If your ironing board cover is dull as dishwater, it may be time to spruce it up! I guarantee ironing will be a little more fun when you have something pretty to iron on, like Kate Spain's gorgeous Verna line.
1 Jelly Roll - Verna by Kate Spain
2 Yards of Muslin
Luna Batting - Crib Size
3 Yards of 1/2" Wide Ribbon
Coordinating Thread
* Note: all seams are 1/4"
1. Sew three jelly roll strips right sides together along long sides. Press. Repeat with three additional jelly roll strips.
2. Layer pieced jelly roll strips right sides together. Stitch along each long end to create a tube.
3. With a 10" square ruler (or 10" square template made of posterboard), cut tube into 5 blocks as pictured:
4. Press blocks open.
5. Repeat Steps 1-4 four more times for a total of 5 tubes and 25 blocks.
6. Arrange blocks into a grid of 3 blocks across and 8 blocks down. You will have one leftover block from Step 5. Sew the blocks into rows, then join the rows together. Press well.
7. Lay your pieced quilt top right side down on the floor. Place your ironing board on top. Add 3.5" to the perimeter of the ironing board. Trace. Cut along traced line.
8. Cut batting and muslin to match quilt top. Sandwich batting between muslin and quilt top. Baste and quilt as desired.
9. Serge, pink, overcast, or zig-zag perimeter to prevent fraying.
10. Press and pin perimeter 3/4" to the wrong side. Edge stitch perimeter to create a channel for the ribbon drawstring. Be sure to leave a 3" opening in the back of the cover to thread ribbon!
11. On the center back of quilt top (directly above 3" opening), sew a buttonhole parallel to stitched line. Slice open with an X-acto knife.
12. Thread ribbon through button hole and entire ironing board channel. Hand stitch 3" opening closed, leaving only enough room for threaded ribbon. Place quilted cover on ironing board. Pull ribbon snugly and tie in a bow!
One sassy ironing board cover!

Fox 2's Alexis Wiley talks to two cousins who are opening new businesses in the Woodward Gardens Development, which includes a new restaurant, The Grille Midtown; the renovated Garden Theatre; and a soon-to-open apartment building. VIDEO: Click on the video player above to learn more in Fox 2's Alexis Wiley's report, or read the transcript below---------------------------------This is a 50 million dollar project that no bank was willing to fund 12 years ago, so the owners took a lot of time and put a lot of heart into making this a reality. And now, three young woman are determined to make it a success. "We saw that midtown was in need of a change," Leslie Byrd says. But the vision that Michael Byrd and George Stewart had 12 years ago was one that many couldn't see. And today that vision has paid off big. This block of Woodward just south of Alexandrine is one of the hottest blocks in midtown. "It took a lot of long hours, going back and forth with the state of Michigan, and with the Detroit Historic Preservation as far as getting funding for the entire project," Stephanie Byrd says. But after 12 years that hard work's paid off. These four buildings are home to the popular Great Lakes Roasting Company, businesses and nonprofits - and now a new restaurant called The Grille Midtown, which is now open. And the decor fits the name."The restaurant, The Grille Midtown, is where upscale and casual meet. And it is a comfortable neighborhood establishment. So you can come and have a wonderful world-class lamb chop in a comfortable environment," Leslie Byrd says.And the Garden Theatre - a place that's been around since the 1920s. It was designed by the same architect who created the Fox Theatre, and was once an adult theatre called The Sassy Cat. And thanks to a serious renovation it's ready for an encore.Wiley: "This is its first time open in more than 20 years, right? Stephanie Byrd replies: "Yes. We've been open for about a month now. We've had a few shows so far and a few parties as well."And soon this development will include a luxury apartment building, complete with bamboo floors, quartz countertops and great views."This is urban living at its finest."And who's in charge of all of this? They are: Leslie and Stephanie Byrd. They're cousins and this is a family project. And these women say despite their youth they have everything it takes to make this development a success."We come from the hospitality industry. We both grew up in it. So we're very familiar with the business side, the operation side and the back end. And we are up for the challenge," Leslie Byrd says. The apartments will be available in mid-January and the Garden Theatre is already booking a lot of shows.

Thank you so much CavMom!!! We can use all the help we can get!
Thank you so much CavMom!!! We can use all the help we can get!
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.
CavMom is a terrific mom and troop supporter. I've also asked her for addresses of people who might be willing to print some of our layouts to put up as posters in hospital wards or unit headquarters so troops can see them hanging. I'll be happy to email them to any one who volunteers to print! I'd suggest mostly 8.5. x 11 sizes, because it isn't likely they'll have wide format printers.
I once sent a picture of my grandson at 3 months of age and wrapped in an American flag to someone in Iraq and got back a picture of my emailed picture that was posted on a bulletin board over there. It was a very moving experience. Reminders of why they are there and who they are protecting may give them a little strength and added courage when it gets rough. Learning that we are grateful for their service is critical for their morale. And I know for sure they'd rather get mail than anything - well, maybe not including home-made cookies.....LOL!
I urge all of you to become involved, to hold out a warm hand to the most deserving of people, and leave your political views out of it, because it isn't about politics, its about one human reaching out to another in time of need and the lonliness of separation from their families. Every single freedom we enjoy in the U. S. is because they or someone like them fought for it at one time or another in our history.

I'll do whatever I can! I'll see if I can get any email addresses and I'll be sure to make at least one page.
My blog - where everything is Absolute Poppycock
As for me, I would love to express my support to not only American troops, but coalition troops because this is not just an American effort. To those of you in other countries, I ask that you help get our thanks to your military members, too. I remember 200,000 Germans at the Brandenburg gate expressing sympathy after 9/11, and Queen Elizabeth's tears. I have saved all pictures I collected on the internet from the weeks afterward, and the graphics that people made. They aren't all American by any means. I remember being astonished at the number of American flags that were displayed in individual's hands who are citizens of another country, and who support what we had to do. I rmember the candlelight vigils around the world, and I am as grateful to any other soldier from any other country as I am to our own. Please don't forget them, I won't.

Barbara, well said as always! I know that appreciation means more to our soldiers than just about anything, and that it still means something to them even decades after their service. My grandfather is a WWII vet and nothing makes his face light up more than when I tell him how proud I am of him or ask him about his time in the service. Really, these brave men and women are away from their families, facing untold dangers, so that we have the freedom to do the things we want to do (like hang out at GDS ). The least we can do is say thanks!
My blog - where everything is Absolute Poppycock
The former commander of the Navy's largest hospital in Portsmouth, VA. has already responded. He will be sending me the addresses of military hospitals we can send layouts to. I'm hoping they will print them to hang in the hospital wards. Be sure to ask them to do that when you email them, and provide the URL of the gallery when Holly and Debra have it available. Not all of the patients are able to get to a computer, but they will see your love on the walls!

You beat me to it - I was just going to come and post here and ask whether anyone would mind/be offended/whatever if i volunteered to take part. Being in the UK, and not an American, I didn't want to 'step on any toes' so to speak, so thanks for the 'ok' - this is something I agree is very important :)

Wednesday night inside the Shrine of the Black Madonna on Linwood on the city's west side, dozens of Detroiters filled a room eager to meet and greet five of the six candidates who have decided they want to become the next mayor.Those who were inside the house of worship included Krystal Crittendon, Mike Duggan, Fred Durhal, Lisa Howze and Benny Napoleon. This was not a debate. It was more like a hometown sit down giving the citizens an opportunity to get to know the contenders a little better -- their backgrounds, their professional positions and, most importantly, why they want to be mayor and what they want to do for Detroiters."I have been in public service in this community for almost 38 years," said Napoleon. "Over the course of that time, I've watched this great city that we know and that we love change.""The reason that I'm running for mayor of the City of Detroit, number one, is because I'm uniquely qualified to do the job. Second is I represent the spirit of the underdog, and there is one thing we have to know about the underdog, that you cannot underestimate the will of the underdog," said Howze."When I came out of law school in Ann Arbor, my friends were all going to Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta. I only wanted to be one place. I only applied to jobs in Detroit, and my friends were saying to me, 'Why do you want to go to Detroit?' You can go all these other places. And I thought Detroit's either in your blood or it's not," said Duggan."Everywhere I have gone, there have been people who have come up to me saying, you know what, I didn't think that anybody in city government would do the right thing just because it was the right thing. I was on my way out of here. I was leaving the city. I was about to throw in my towel. If you are going to stand and fight, I am going to stay here and fight with you," said Crittendon."I say to you that we need to put the right folks downtown who are community oriented, who come from the community, who did not walk away from it, who have decided to get this community back together, and the only way it's going to happen, the only way it's going to happen is leadership at the top," said Durhal.For many of the citizens who were inside that meeting, this is the first time they have been up close and personal with the candidates. We asked people for their reactions. Here are some of their responses: "Thought the meeting was great, gave us an excellent opportunity to see the candidates together and to get some questions fielded about what they're going to do for the city, what the vision is for the city and how they plan to go about it.""I think that they low balled the questions. We should've had direct answers from specific candidates.""I feel that all the men should step back and let this be a run for the women and let the women come in and let's see what they can do."

A young Allen Park mom is doing something for her dad that will change her life and his forever.She's giving her father a kidney which is a decision no one takes lightly, including 56-year-old recipient Ben Warren. "I tried to talk my daughter out of it, you don't want to see your kid hurt, pain. surgery, don't want to see your child go through this."But there's no changing 33-year-old Krista Nappa's mind. "I'm really excited to have my dad back." Her father has been coaching kids for as long as he can remember. First his own, now his grandchildren. Krista has fond memories. "As a kid he was always coaching my tee-ball teams and softball, to be able to have my kids know what a great person he is, is important to me."But Ben was born with a rare kidney disease, which caused kidney failure about 20 years ago. He waited and received a donated cadaver kidney. But now, that kidney is failing.Ben's health is deteriorating. Without a donated kidney he's headed for dialysis.Krista stepped right up. "I knew I was always his blood type, but you also have to do tissue typing. Just to go through all the processes then finally hear, 'yep it's a match, it's a go', it's a huge relief."In a living kidney transplant at the University of Michigan, the kidney is removed from the donor and quickly implanted into the recipient. You need a kidney to filter fluids in your body. Had Krista not donated one of her's, Ben may have been on a waiting list for years. Her husband Michael fully supports her, "I think it's the most amazing thing anybody could do for somebody." Heroism runs in this family. Michael is a disabled vet who served in Iraq. As for Ben, he'll never forget what his daughter is doing for him. "I'll have my daughter with me the rest of my life, its' a great feeling."If you'd like to follow their story or help with the many financial burdens, use the links below. Right now, about 100,000 people are waiting for kidneys.Online:www.giveforward.com/fundraiser/ys92/warrennappakidneytransplantfundwww.giftoflifemichigan.org

This procedure is best thought of as pulling the lower abdominal tissue down towards the pubic area.More
A variety of techniques are available for reconstruction of the breast mound after breast cancer surgery.More
Under general anaesthesia silicone breast implants into a surgically created pocket either immediately behind the natural breast tissue (Sub-glandular or sub-mammary pocket) or behind the pectoralis major muscle, the chest "pecs" muscle, (Sub-pectoral or sub-muscular pocket). The choice of pocket is largely decided by the amount of soft tissue cover available to disguise the upper edge of the implant and slimmer patients usually are best suited to placement of the implant under the muscle.
Breast reconstruction after breast cancer - A variety of techniques are available for reconstruction of the breast mound after breast cancer surgery. Factors which influence the choice of reconstructive technique are: the type of mastectomy which has been performed, the size and shape of the unaffected breast, whether radiotherapy has been used in the affected breast and the body shape and medical history of the patient.
Breast reconstruction for congenital breast asymmetry - There are a great many variations in the presentation of this condition. In many women one breast is slightly larger than the other and rarely a severe enough size and nipple position disparity exists to necessitate surgery.More
On the day of surgery markings are made on the breasts showing the new nipple position and the amount of breast to be removed. Then under general anaesthesia the lowest part of the breast gland is removed leaving the nipple attached to the chest wall by a strip of tissue called the pedicle so that its blood supply is preservedMore
Time, gravity and breastfeeding all have an effect on the shape of the breast gland. The breast gland may shrink within a stretched skin envelope leaving an empty looking breast with the nipple at its lowest pole pointing downwardsMore
With ageing and frowning our brows begins to descend (brow droop or ptosis) ultimately leading to hooding of the sides of the upper eyelids and a tired lived-in look.
Our brow posture determines the way our mood is subconsciously perceived by others. A low brow with marked glabellar creases is usually taken to indicate tiredness, frustration, anger or irritabilityMore
Retinova (Tretinoin 0.05%) is about the best kept secret for ladies over 40 years of age who desire improvement in their skin quality. Retinova is by far the strongest of the topical vitamin A based skin products and can only be prescribed by a doctor after a consultation – it cannot just be bought over the counter due to its potencyMore
We prefer to use either a hyaluronic acid based product (there are too many of these currently on the market to mention) or a Collagen based product. These are injected under topical or local block anaesthesia, last several months and are gradually absorbed away. The collagen based products carry a tiny chance of an allergic reaction and are therefore patch tested prior to useMore
Most commonly the ante helical (inner) fold of the ear may not have formed completely making the outer rim and overall projection of the ear more pronounced. This is corrected by making an incision behind the ear under local anaesthetic (or general anaesthetic in children) and resculpting the fold in the cartilage using a permanent scoring technique. Suture (stitching) techniques in this area are best avoided since they are prone to high recurrence rates and although they give a good initial result the ears can spring back with timeMore
Endermologie is the only FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved treatment for cellulite. It is becoming increasingly popular as it is non-invasive; meaning no surgery is performed. The technique is gentle yet effective and is slowly becoming one of the most popular cellulite treatments today. Results include losing up to three inches in cellulite so it is little wonder.More
The effects of aging, gravity, lifestyle and sun exposure have an effect on the soft tissues of the face and this is often seen in the region around the eye. In the lower eyelids a dark circle or bag under the lower eyelid is the first sign of contour changes here. Additionally the midface soft tissue may droop or shrink in volume exposing the facial skeleton and accentuating adverse contours in the periorbital regionMore
Gravity causes drooping of the soft tissues in the head and neck leading to ptosis (drooping) of the brow and cheek, the formation of jowls and loose folds of skin in the face neck. In addition to this the full fat pads of youth shrink and atrophy causing a hollowed appearance in some patients. Browlift, Facelift and Necklift are three procedures which may be performed individually or in harmony with one another to produce an aesthetic rejuvenation of the faceMore
Mr McDairmid frequently uses chin and malar implants in patients who are lacking prominence of the mandible or cheek. They are made of solid silicone and usually placed underneath the fibrous layer, immediately above the bone, in a so-called sub-periosteal (or partial subperiosteal) pocketMore
Mr McDiarmid is a fellowship trained hand specialist. For many years he ran the hand service at Derriford Hospital in Plymouth as the only fellowship-trained specialistMore
Removal of unwanted hairs used to be a painstaking business until recently and involved the discomfort of electrolysis and multiple treatments to achieve the desired resultMore
Laser Resurfacing involves the use of a carbon dioxide laser to precisely remove the outer layers of skin. It is an extremely effective method of getting rid of wrinkles and improving acne scarsMore
The Aura/KTP laser produces green light at a wavelength of 532nm which is ideal for selectively targeting blood vessels under the skin. By harnessing a property of laser light called selective photothermolysis the laser's light energy shines through the skin harmlessly until its hits a red target (chromophore). On hitting the target light energy is converted into heat energy selectively destroying the thread vein, broken capillarty, spider naevus or telangiectasis that it has been aimed atMore
Although the lips can be enhanced temporarily or permanently it is always a good idea to try a temporary form of lip augmentation first before deciding on a permanent option. Many of the filler materials currently available are usable in the lips with good predictable resultsMore
Fatty deposits under the skin can be reduced and reshaped through this ingenious technique which was first decribed 30 or so years ago. In Mr McDiarmid's practice liposuction is most often used as a part of other procedures e:g neck liposuction in a facelift or to the abdomen and flank regions in abdominoplastyMore
This is a process in which the outer layers of skin are removed by bombarding the skin with a controlled stream of either aluminium hydroxide or salt crystals. It is rather like sandblasting for the face and acts by peeling the outer epidermal layers of skin away providing very vigorous method of exfoliationMore
The nose takes pride of place in the middle of our faces dominating the appearance from front and side views. It lies directly between our eyes and is often the focus of attention as our eyes flit from one side of a person's face to the other during conversation. A coarse or prominent nose in a lady may overshadow a naturally attractive faceMore
This procedure is best thought of as pulling the lower abdominal tissue down towards the pubic area. Childbirth, weightloss, Caesarean section or hysterectomy scars can all contribute to a fatty bulge developing in the lower abdominal areaMore
Frowning and overuse of the muscles needed for facial expressions can lead to a tired and lived-in look. In particular the corrugator muscles between the eyebrows create frown furrows when they contractMore
The midface lift is a much misunderstood procedure. Those who consider it a sole procedure for simply elevating and rejuvenating the midface are missing the entire point of it - its effects are far greater in conjunction with fat redraping blepharoplasty and can really be breathtaking. Just as endoscopic browlift is a wonderful adjunct for upper eyelid rejuvenation in certain patients, midface lift is the corollary for the lower eyelid in patients with midfacial ptosis.More

From WENN.com
Former police officer Christopher Dorner has a $1 million (£625,000) bounty on his head and is currently being hunted by the Los Angeles Police Department on suspicion of fatally shooting a couple, killing a cop and leaving another injured last week (03Feb13).
Dorner, who lost his job with the LAPD four years ago, reportedly wrote an online manifesto in which he declared war on his former employers and colleagues, and also namechecked Sheen, who he called ""awesome"".
Now the actor has called out to Dorner in a recorded video for TMZ.com in a bid to get him to come forward. He says, ""Christopher Dorner, this is Charlie Sheen. You mention me in your manifesto so thank you for your kind words. I'm urging you to call me and let's figure out together how to end this thing. Call me. I look forward to talking to you.""
Police are currently searching the California mountains after Dorner's pickup truck was found burned out with guns inside.

Not far from Fort McHenry, where the first shots were fired in the Civil War, the Green Bay Packers limped out of Baltimore, Maryland just like Civil War heroes, wounded but smiling after outlasting the Ravens 19-17 in a mighty struggle. Already down two playmaking linebackers going in, the Pack lost two playmaking wide receivers along the way with James Jones and Randall Cobb going down with knee injuries, leaving Aaron Rodgers with only two healthy receivers for the entire second half. But an inspired effort on defense, lead by A.J. Hawk with 10 tackles and a career high three sacks, helped Green Bay get to 3-2 on the season.
It was a defensive battle for the first 30 minutes. The Packers scored on their first possession after rookie Eddie Lacy ripped off a 37 yard run. Mason Crosby booted a 45 yard field goal for a 3-0 lead less than two minutes in. The Ravens tried to run the ball but could not, punting on their first five series. Protection was an issue early for the Pack, Rodgers fumbled twice getting sacked but Green Bay recovered both. The game got really interesting in the second quarter when Ryan Taylor blocked a Sam Koch punt. The ball rolled forward and John Kuhn inexplicably tried to pick it up at the 41 yard line. When he couldn't, Baltimore recovered and kept the ball. Dallas Clark then caught a 45 yard pass and the Ravens were on the doorstep looking at first and goal from the 4. That's when Morgan Burnett stepped up making three straight plays against the run. On third down, the Ravens were called for holding but Mike McCarthy declined the penalty. John Harbaugh kept his offense in one yard away but Bernard Pierce was stuffed by Mike Daniels and Micah Hyde. The Packers moved into field goal range late in the second thanks to a 33 yard catch by Nelson but Crosby missed his first kick of the year wide right from 44 yards out. With only :20 left, the Ravens took a shot downfield and missed and on second down, took another. Nick Perry sacked Joe Flacco to force a fumble that Datone Jones scooped up and rumbled 20 yards to the 13, getting tackled with :02 left. That allowed Crosby to come on for a 31 yard field goal and a 6-0 lead at the half.
In the third quarter, Rodgers had a chance to extend the lead but his shot to the end zone was picked off by Jimmy Smith. On the next series, Jarrett Boykin, pressed into service with the injuries to Jones and Cobb, finally made a play, taking a short pass 43 yards to set up Crosby's third field goal. The Ravens answered quickly when Flacco found a wide open Marlon Brown for 59 yards but the defense again held on first and goal from the 6, forcing Justin Tucker to hit a 23 yard field goal for the Ravens' first points. Rodgers then cranked up a big play, faking to Lacy, rolling right and hitting Nelson in stride behind Lardarius Webb for a 64 yard home run ball and what looked like a safe, 16-3 advantage. Baltimore then drove 80 yards in 10 plays for their first touchdown, thanks a third down holding call against Tramon Williams at midfield. Jacoby Jones ran behind Sam Shields for the 11 yard TD catch.
The Packers then put on a solid, 72 yard drive, eating up 7:35 of the clock but settled for Crosby's 4th field goal from the 31. The Ravens faced 4th and 21 from their own 19 when Flacco found Tandon Doss deep down the middle when Jerron McMillian stumbled while turning around. The 63 yard strike was followed immediately by Clark getting behind McMillian for an 18 yard touchdown and it was suddenly a two point game with 2:13 to play. Instead of an onside kick, the Ravens went deep with all three timeouts left. On third and 3 at the 27, Rodgers connected with Jermichael Finley for a 52 gain. Lacy capped his 23 carry, 120 yard day with three straight runs that picked up one last first down and allowed Rodgers to take a knee for the win.
By the numbers, Green Bay outgained Baltimore 438-360. On the ground, it was even more pronounced, the Packers rushed for 140, holding the Ravens to just 47 yards on 22 carries, a 2.1 average. Rodgers finished 17 of 32 for 315 yards, a score and a pick, leaving him with a sub-par rating of 84.8. Flacco finshed 20 of 34 for 342 and two scores, a rating of 112.6 but he was sacked five more times. Nelson finished with 113 yards on only four catches, targeted 10 times. Green Bay lost the turnover battle, had more penalties, and lost two key offensive weapons but found a way. The severity of those injuries were not detailed afterwards, more information will come on Monday.
It was the Pack's first win in Baltimore since 1974. They now lead the all-time series with the Ravens 4-1 and it was Harabugh's first home loss to an NFC team in his tenure.
The inactives were all injured players, except for Josh Boyd. Clay Matthews, Brad Jones, Jarrett Bush, Casey Hayward, Greg Van Roten and James Starks. Next up, another AFC North opponent, the Cleveland Browns at Lambeau next Sunday.

Wow we come out of games so slow.
Danny made a good cut to the basket.
boom baby
Nice PG
If Vogel takes George out next dead ball I will be mad.
I will always remember the Boston fans for chanting "Ugly Sister" at Lamar Odom.
Haha Hibbert...getting blocked by no knees Jermaine
Great play by DC
we would be the ones who make Jermaine look good
I can't stand watching us look so lost on the offensive end.
Man our offensive execution is so terrible, never seen so many crappy attempts to run a pick and roll.
every time i see Collison play i'm more and more convinced that he's not the PG of the future for the Pacers. Not starter, at least.
the only way PG will reach his potential is if Danny Granger is traded... give PG the ball!
JO definitely doesn't have anything left athletically but dude is still a formidable shot blocker because of his great timing and willingness to block (even if he does occasionally get posterized).
Boston fans also need to get over themselves about the whole David West thing.
The shots not falling is really starting to frustrate me.. I keep making excuses for them cuz it was a lockout and short training camp.. but cmon, with 2 weeks of training camp and 9 games under your belt, you should have your legs enough to make a shot.. Cmon Pacers!
PG is the only one that's been shooting well, cuz he played ball all offseason with a bunch of young NBAers
sorry but after seeing rondo showboat knocking the ball off his head then showing off after the layup, I say **** rondo we're fine without him. go pacers!
I know the Celtics fans are chanting defense, but it might as well be D-West through my speakers.
Well look at that PG is out of the game...
1 - You think Rondo wants to get to the FT line? With that shot? He was just acting like an ***.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
2 - It was more about the stupid fake pass crap after the shot.
I expect Bass to look amazing today.
Maybe it's just me but it seems like DC is refusing to make easy plays for us while Roy keeps struggling..
While our halfcourt defense has been quite good, we look like we don't understand that there is such a thing as a fast break that the other team can run.
I love that Boston is booing David West. You mad, Boston? hahaha.
"Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better." - Albert Camus
"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well." - Voltaire
Michael Pina, Red94: "There are so many different ways the Pacers can beat you. They have an All-Star scoring threat, imposing figures on the front line, steady point guard play, and most importantly, a defense that'll choke the life out of just about every offense that crosses its path."

"I am here for you! You can count on me!" This seems to be Elizabeth Dang's silent motto, her nominators noted, as she "always has a smile and shows genuine concern to anyone" who walks into the Ambulatory Care Services (ACS) department.
"Liz (her nickname) is a go-getter with lots of energy and cheerfulness that is so infectious," they said. "She's a trooper, always accommodating and always ready to help peers, patients, and this hospital – anything to make things better and go smoothly. She is not only a valuable team member; she is like family to everyone in Kuakini Medical Center."
As a nurse in the ACS department, Elizabeth makes sure that patients receive the best care from the time of admission to their discharge from Kuakini. She involves patients and their families in the care plan by making them feel comfortable, "talking story," and keeping everyone informed, her nominators said. She also interprets for Cantonese-speaking patients who cannot speak English.
"I keep the family informed because they are worried. Everybody is affected (when someone undergoes a procedure)," Elizabeth said. "It is very rewarding when I can help them, when I can ease their pain and their fears."
Elizabeth, however, credits her performance as a nurse and her Employee of the Month recognition to people who have mentored and supported her.
"I'm honored and humbled, but I feel that it's because of all the support from my mentors and my peers and everybody else that help me do my job. It's a team effort."
Elizabeth joined Kuakini in 1986 as a unit clerk while studying for an associate's degree in nursing at the University of Hawaii. She was awarded her associate's degree the following year and became a student nurse technician. She then worked as a registered nurse on Ewa 4 and eventually moved to the ACS department in 1991. She received her bachelor's degree in nursing in 1989.
"Everybody here in Kuakini comes to help, not just (staff in) my department. On every floor, if there's a problem, they come and help you," she said. "That's what I love about Kuakini – the people are here for you no matter what. Everybody takes care of each other. There's a loving environment here that makes it great for me to come to work."
Elizabeth spends her free time with her family. They often eat out and go on picnics or fishing trips. Right now, she said she is "sad but proud" that her two boys will be going to the mainland for college in a few months.

Dad will enjoy sharing a refreshing chardonnay with you alot more than tossing that ugly tie in the closet. The Dreaming Tree Chardonnay is light and buttery, backed with grated lemon and tropical melon peels. Perfect when dad grills seafood or poultry! My wine gal at Hardings Markets has it at $14.99. Plus, it goes great with Dave Matthews music, one of the co-conspirators of Dreaming Tree, along with veteran Sonoma winemaker Steve Reeder.
Silk Oak has a full bodied cabernet with several layers for dad, cracked black pepper and notes of dark chocolate and spiced cherrys. Great to share over a few stories and baseball scores.
If dad's grilling steak, a Shiraz Australia can make the meal. When the whole family's over for a cook-out, the Cocobon Red blend brings a red fruit flavor to the party. It runs $7.- $9.99.
Happy Fathers Day, don't forget the card to go w/the cork.

Morning DiscussionLast night, one of the best shows on television ended. Five years after continuing the story already made into a film inspired by the novel from author H. G. Bissinger, Friday Night Lights has run its final play.
It's odd though; for some, the season hasn't even started. Friday Night Lights first runs on Direct TV and then jumps to a major network--in this case, NBC.
On NBC, Friday Night Lights begins its final season on April 15. If you haven't seen the series, I recommend it. It really is something special, even if you don't like football.

By Taryn AsherFox 2 NewsDETROIT (WJBK) -- Two young women were kidnapped at gunpoint, robbed and one of them was raped, but then they were able to convince their attacker to let them go. One victim attributes it to smart thinking and prayer."I thought I was dead. We both thought we were dead. We thought that was the end," said a 22-year-old woman.It all started last Friday as she and her friend were leaving the Tiger Liquor Store at Puritan and Meyers on Detroit's west side. A man pulled out a gun and pointed it at their car window."We basically did what he said, gave him everything we had. He counted the money, said it wasn't enough, and he said, 'Which one of you [is] going to get shot?'"Fearing for their lives, they agreed to the man's demands. She said he forced her friend to drive to an abandoned building at Ward and McNichols. He then held a gun to one young woman's head while he sexually assaulted the other.He then demanded their money, forcing them to drive to an ATM and give him whatever they had."That's all we kept saying, you can have the money, you can have everything. Just let us live."She only had two minutes to get the money out of the machine at grocery store before he threatened he would shoot her friend. She grabbed what she could and was able to alert a worker to call police. But by the time officers arrived, their attacker forced them to drive away.With nothing to lose, this woman decided to try something else. She started to pray and offering to get the man help if he let them go."We were just thinking smart and it was God. It was only God. All I could do is pray," she said. "We could take you to church with us. We'll talk to you. We'll be your friend.""He made us put our phone numbers in his phone and he asked us to take him to church."Then something happened they never expected. She explained her attacker started apologizing, eventually got out of the car and let them go. They headed straight for the hospital and called police. On their way, they got an unexpected phone call from the man."Texting and calling us. He texted my friend first and asked was she okay and where were we going."Detectives connected that phone number to 19-year-old Javontaw Fizer and traced it to his house on Manor. There they found his gun, the cash and Fizer, who we're told confessed to police."I'm so glad that they got him as soon as they did. Basically, we're just thankful to be alive."
