How cancer spreads: Metastatic tumor a hybrid of cancer cell and white blood cell
Yale Cancer Center scientists, together with colleagues at the Denver Police Crime Lab and the University of Colorado, have found evidence that a human metastatic tumor can arise when a leukocyte (white blood cell) and a cancer cell fuse to form a genetic hybrid. Their study, published in the journal PLOS ONE, may answer the question of how cancer cells travel from the primary tumor's site of origin to distant organs and tissues of the body -- the deadly process of metastasis. Such a theory was first proposed as an explanation for metastasis more than a century ago. But until now, the theory was unproven in human cancer because genomic differences between cells from the same patient cannot be distinguished. To get around this problem, the researchers analyzed genomic DNA in the secondary malignancies of a patient who had a melanoma brain metastasis and had received a bone marrow transplant from his brother.
They found signature genes from both the patient and donor together in the tumor cells, providing the first evidence that leukocytes (in this case from the donor) can fuse with cancer cells and initiate a tumor.
"Our results provide the first proof in humans of a theory, proposed in 1911 by a German pathologist, that metastasis can occur when a leukocyte and cancer cell fuse and form a genetic hybrid," said corresponding author John Pawelek, research faculty in the dermatology department of the Yale School of Medicine. "This could open the way to new therapy targets, but much work needs to be done to determine how fusion occurs, the frequency of such hybrids in human cancers, and the potential role of hybrids in metastasis," he added.

Nosema ceranae is a microsporidium parasite infecting honey bees worldwide. All colony members including workers, drones, and queens can become infected. In this study, we inoculated queens of age 1, 6, and 12 days post-adult emergence, with N. ceranae spores of different doses and allowed them to age an additional 12 days. The results indicated that younger queens were indeed more susceptible to N. ceranae inoculation than older queens. Moreover, this is the first report of the effects of N. ceranae inoculation on immune gene expression in queens of different ages. Our results demonstrated that the expression of genes related to the bee immunity apidaecin, eater, and vitellogenin in the gut and the remaining abdomen was different among queens of different ages when inoculated with N. ceranae. All three ages of queens inoculated by N. ceranae showed upregulation of apidaecin in gut tissue 6 days after inoculation, but only in queens aged 1 day post-emergence were the differences significant. However, transcript levels of eater were increased in all three ages of queens when sampled on day 12, and significant differences were obtained in queens inoculated at 6 and 12 days post-emergence. We clearly show that immune responses to N. ceranae changes as queen age and this knowledge may provide clues for understanding the ability of queens to resist infection by this gut parasite.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and China, two of our nation's most distinguished internationalists rang the opening bell Monday at the New York Stock Exchange. One of them, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Dr. Henry Kissinger, served as national security adviser and as secretary of state. The other, David Stern, has been commissioner of the National Basketball Association since 1984. There they were, Kissinger and Stern: the professor and the litigator, the men who opened up China to Western-style industrialism and Rockets jerseys, respectively. You can decide to whom the Chinese people are more indebted.

The floor recognizes the distinguished gentleman from New York.
In any event, the sight of Kissinger and Stern side by side got me thinking -- no small feat. In a time of national crisis, when our economy teeters on the brink of collapse, on a day when Nobel Economics Prize laureate Paul Krugman wrote in The New York Times that we are edging ever closer to Great Depression Part Deux, why is David Stern working for hoops nation rather than the nation? Suddenly, it seemed clear to me that the man who rescued pro basketball when it was flirting with oblivion shouldn't be wasting his time on 5th Avenue. He should be on Pennsylvania Avenue, or on whatever street the Capitol Building is situated. Here is a man who is a master negotiator, a skilled businessman, a man of the world, independently wealthy -- and therefore unsusceptible to loathsome special interests -- and tough-minded but fair. Here is a Webster, a Clay, a Quayle -- a man, in short, who belongs in the U.S. Senate.
Serendipitously, here in New York, a job is open. Unlike his counterpart in Illinois, Governor David Paterson has not yet named a successor to the state's soon-to-be-former junior senator. Unlike his counterpart in Illinois, Paterson might be willing to name a new senator without first putting the job on eBay. David Stern for Senate? You laugh? Don't. Here are some good reasons why Stern is, if anything, overqualified:
It appears that Al Franken -- a middling comedian -- has probably eked out a win in his effort to unseat Sen. Norm Coleman in Minnesota. Please don't tell me that Franken is more qualified than Stern.
The front-runner (for now) to succeed Sen. Hillary Clinton is Caroline Kennedy, who is demonstrably less proven than Stern.
Bill Bradley was elected to the U.S. Senate just one year after retiring as a player from the NBA -- and served well and honorably for three full terms.
Milwaukee Bucks owner Herb Kohl is serving his fourth term in the Senate. With all due respect to the Honorable Mr. Kohl, is there a Bucks fan alive who thinks Kohl is smarter than Stern? Remember Dirk Nowitzki for Robert Traylor?
I could go on -- and I will.
Economics isn't Stern's only area of expertise. Unlike his counterparts in baseball, football and hockey, he has truly succeeded in the arena of international relations. The NBA is the closest thing we have to a global league with global impact. Now that Joe Biden has left the Foreign Relations Committee, I would feel safer knowing David Stern is there to safeguard American interests abroad.
There are precedents for commissioners entering politics, kind of. Happy Chandler was baseball's commissioner when the color line was finally broken. Previously, he'd been a U.S. senator and governor of Kentucky. For what it's worth -- not much I'm afraid, in this discussion -- the father of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was a U.S. senator who represented the Empire State.
Here's another factor: President-elect Obama is a hoops man. So is Education Secretary-designate Arne Duncan. And Attorney General-designate Eric Holder. With a basketball-loving administration, Stern would have instant entrée.
In other words, this is an easy call for David Paterson. David Stern must be shipped off to Washington. He meets all the constitutional requirements. He's older than 29, he's been a U.S citizen for more than eight years and he resides in the state he would represent. As far as we know, he has never communicated with Rod Blagojevich. Plus, in the grand tradition of the Senate, he's flexible, a great compromiser. Would a rigid ideologue have implemented instant replay? I think not. Commissioner, your state and your nation need you. Don't worry about the pay cut. Compared to New York prices, Washington real estate is cheap -- and you could always share a place with Gilbert Arenas.

If I calculate $e$ using the following formula.
$$e = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}{\frac{1}{k!}}$$
Is it possible to predict how many correct decimal places I get when I stop summing at $n$ terms?
If I calculate $e$ using the following formula.
$$e = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}{\frac{1}{k!}}$$
Is it possible to predict how many correct decimal places I get when I stop summing at $n$ terms?
If we use $n$ terms, the last term used is $\dfrac{1}{(n-1)!}$. The missing "tail" is therefore $$\frac{1}{n!}+\frac{1}{(n+1)!}+\frac{1}{(n+2)!}+\frac{1}{(n+3)!}\cdots.\tag{$1$}$$ Note that $(n+1)!=n!(n+1)$ and $(n+2)!\gt n!(n+1)^2$, and $(n+3)!\gt n!(n+1)^3$ and so on. So our tail $(1)$ is less than $$\frac{1}{n!}\left(1+\frac{1}{n+1}+\frac{1}{(n+1)^2}+\frac{1}{(n+1)^3}+\cdots \right).$$ Summing the geometric series, we find that the approximation error is less than $$\frac{1}{n!}\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right).$$
You can use the remainder term in Taylor's expansion
In this answer, it is shown, by comparison to a geometric series, that $$ 0\le n!\left(e-\sum_{k=0}^n\frac1{k!}\right)\le\frac1n $$ Therefore, the error after $n+1$ terms is at most $\frac1{nn!}$ .
To $n$ decimal places:
When asking for a number to $n$ decimal places, there are two common meanings
The series converges rapidly. If you stop at $\frac 1{ k!}$ you can bound the error by $\frac 1{k(k!)}$ by bounding the remaining terms with a geometric series.
The $n$-th Taylor polynomial is $${P_n}(x) = f(0) + \frac{{f'(0)}}{{1!}}x + \frac{{f''(0)}}{{2!}}{x^2} + \cdots + \frac{{{f^{(n)}}(0)}}{{n!}}{x^n}$$ (in this case $f(x)$ is simply $e$) and the error we incur in approximating the value of $f(x)$ by $n$-th Taylor polynomial is exactly $$f(x) - {P_n}(x) + \frac{{{f^{(n + 1)}}(c)}}{{(n + 1)!}}{x^{n + 1}}$$ where $0 < c < x$. This form of the remainder can be used to find an upper bound on the error. If the difference above is positive, then the approximation is too low, and likewise if the error is negative, then the approximation is too high. We only need to find an appropriate $c$.

In August, I will be traveling from Tennessee to Washington for my first IronMan 70.3. All of my previous races have been local (driving distance) races, so this is my first time to fly and compete.
Do any seasoned athletes have suggestions on how far in advance I should travel? Are there certain rules to adhere to for top performance on race day?
Also, how is a lake north of Seattle going to feel at 6:30 AM in August?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Hey there,
That sounds like fun!

The stress field around a pore was analyzed as a function of the pore position in depth in the surface of a linear elastic solid using finite element modeling. It was found that the pore depth dominated the stress field around the pore on the surface and that the maximum stress was increased sharply when the pore intercepted with the surface at its top. Given the applied nominal stress, the magnitude of the maximum main stress only depended on the relative depth of the pore, while the pore size affected the stress distribution in the surface. An elastic-plastic model was also used to account for the yielding effect in the region where stress was over the yield strength. The results still indicated a significant maximum stress concentration when the pore was just buried underneath the surface, but with a lowered value than that of the linear elastic model. These results were consistent with the experimental observations that fatigue cracks were preferably initiated from pores and particles, which were just intercepted at their top with the sample surface or just buried beneath the surface.

Asher Kaufman: Stop Beating the Drums of War against IranRoundup: Historians' Take
Asher Kaufman is associate professor of history and peace studies at the University of Notre Dame's Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies. He is the author of "Reviving Phoenicia: The Search for Identity in Lebanon."
(CNN) -- President Barack Obama's rebuke of Republicans who are "beating the drums of war" in encouraging the United States to take military action against Iran should be targeted not just toward those critics but also, and more important, toward the Israeli government.
An attack on Iran would not only fail to achieve its stated goal of denuclearizing the country, it would unleash a devastating confrontation between Iran and Israel that would harm thousands of Israelis and Iranians, and affect those in neighboring states.
It would drag the U.S. into another Middle East quagmire, and it would launch an oil crisis that would throw the global economy into turmoil. Then, once the dust settles (or before it does), Iran would only be more motivated to pursue its nuclear ambition....

Toyota and education
The CREATE Foundation announcement that it will spend $278,000 of Toyota's money on a curriculum audit of eight school districts in Lee, Pontotoc and Union counties is good news for two reasons.
First, of course, is the districts will benefit from an assessment by Phi Delta Kappa International, a well-known association of educators, that will include specific recommendations for improving student learning.
But, perhaps more important, the announcement is a clear indication that Toyota intends to move ahead on honoring its commitment to help education in the area and build cars at its soon-to-be-completed Union County plant.
When Toyota decided to locate its plant here, the company agreed to give $50 million over 10 years to enhance education in the three counties. The first contribution of $5 million is due in May.
Mike Clayborne, president of the foundation, said the plan is to invest about $4 million of each contribution in an endowment fund and allocate up to $1 million a year to educational projects.
He also said the foundation will make a major announcement of another education project soon. He didn't say what that is, but it's no secret that the foundation intends to create a high-end vocational-technical education center. A similar center has been developed near a Toyota plant outside San Antonio.
We have yet to be convinced that that would be the best use for the money. Our region desperately needs comprehensive early childhood education and a focus on sending more students to college and the higher-paying careers that result from it.
But we also understand that Toyota wants to create something that Clayborne says will have a "significant lasting impact" and it is their money. So apparently we will have a vocational-technical center.
And we should also note that it is the state, not Toyota, that has the responsibility to provide enough money to move our public schools forward rapidly. So far it has failed to do that.

I'm not interested in automatic updates (the fewer things I can have changing when I'm asleep, the better), but I am interested in always keeping my server up to date, so my question is: When I see output such as that, is it always considered safe to run
apt-get upgrade, or are there times when it can break things. I understand that patches are not always perfect (hence the quoted "always" in the title), but as a general rule, is it assumed safe to run this (esp given this is a database server vs something that just serves CSS files via Nginx)?

Identity Management
The Department of Homeland Security will use video footage collected at a recent Western Hockey League game in Washington state to compare various facial recognition technologies. It's part of an effort to help other federal agencies decide what kind of recognition system they might need.
The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) gathered the video at the request of DHS Science & Technology Directorate's Resilient Systems Division.
DHS Science & Technology Directorate spokesman John Verrico told FCW that the video footage collected by PNNL would be used to compare the capabilities of various current state-of-the-art and commonly available, off-the-shelf facial recognition systems in changeable, realistic conditions.
Just a (recognized) face in the crowd
The video was taken with standard video cameras, not specialized equipment, he said. Standard-grade cameras are more commonly used at government agencies than cameras capable of capturing extreme detail. Using the standard cameras would present a more typical foundation to measure the effectiveness of facial recognition systems, Verrico said.
The results of the comparisons, he said, could be used by federal agencies "to figure out what their needs are and what kind of capabilities" might fill them.
PNNL collected generic background video of the crowd gathered at the Toyota Center in Kennewick, Wash., on Sept. 21 to watch the Tri-City Americans' season opener. In the crowd, however, were 20 PNNL volunteers who had agreed to be identified by DHS in its comparison work as they walked the arena's concourse and stood in concession lines. Hockey fans were notified in advance of the activity and given capabilities to avoid cameras and opt out of being recorded.
The video was taken from several set locations in the arena's concourse before and during the game, according to PNNL. The Toyota Center has been used as a test bed for data collection since 2008.

We went here for an afternoon of entertainment and were not disappointed. We were able to play with all sorts of things from a realistic plane simulation, to a 3-D planet experience. We were able to interact with musical instruments and see how they work. We explored inside of a boat and touched huge replicas of the great lakes. We tried out various kinds of maual machinery and learned about sustainability. Then we went downstairs to the aquarium, that went below our feet and over our heads. We ended up at the touch pond where we were able to pet sharks and sting rays. It was an awesome and very interactive experience. If you do not have children with you, then we suggest going after 2:00 during the weekdays (not sure on weekends) due to the children clean out about then and you have the place to yourself! A very fun time.

I'm having the same problem that was reported on an earlier version and that the plugin author said would be fixed in the next release. That was about a year ago. (No complaint here, just a report that it may not be fixed.) After running the diagnostics, there are conflicting reports, one, for example, saying that .htaccess files are writable, and another saying they're not allowed.
When I try to configure the password, the message says the .htpasswda3 file can't be created, but it actually has been created, but without the password information.
I contacted my hosting provider (BlueHost) who looked at the diagnostic output and suggested I contact the developer. So here I am.

Gene Simmons, famous front man of the rock group KISS voted for Obama, but is not happy with Obama's foreign policy or tax policies, economy or Health Care! And he is not shy about saying so.
On a recent FoxNews interview, Simmons was seriously unhappy with Obama's plans to grab the wealth Simmons has worked so hard to accumulate. He has started a Life Insurance Company called Cool Springs Life to protect the wealth of high-net-worth individuals.
Details were not very forthcoming during the interview, but Simmon's company has created a way that people with tons of money can avoid paying these higher taxes using a Life Insurance policy as cover.
So, while Obama plans to soak the rich, as predicted, the rich are paying smart lawyers to keep Obama away from their fortunes. Which means that these massive debt loads that the Socialist progressives are putting in place will be financed by … the middle class.

Cancer in women
Certain cancers are of specific concern to women. These include not only cancer of the female organs, such as the breast, cervix, womb (uterus), and ovary but also of the pancreas, large bowel (colorectal cancer), and lung.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women. In the U.S., a woman has a 12.4% chance of developing breast cancer in her lifetime. Research studies show that the smaller the breast cancer is when it is detected, the greater the chance of survival. Currently, mammography and breast examinations serve as the recommended screening tests for breast cancer. The discovery of inherited gene mutations permits the identification of at least some women at increased risk for developing breast cancer.
Cancer involving the ovaries is also referred to as ovarian cancer. Because ovarian cancer is very difficult to detect in its early stages, it is often referred to as the "silent killer." Although ovarian cancer can occur at any age, a woman's risk gradually increases over time, and it is much higher if there is a history of ovarian cancer in the family. One in every 70 females in the U.S. develops ovarian cancer.
Colorectal cancer is cancer of the large intestine. Most cases of colorectal cancer occur in people over 50 years of age. A woman with a history of cancer of the breast, uterus, or ovary has an increased risk for colorectal cancer. Regular screening is recommended for all women over 50 years old. Research studies show that eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables and supplementing the diet with antioxidants may help reduce a woman's risk of developing not only colorectal cancer, but a number of other cancers as well.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths among women. As smoking is the primary cause of lung cancer, it should be obvious that abstinence from smoking is a significant way to avoid this dreaded disease. Smoking cessation is essential in minimizing the damage already caused by smoking and optimizing long-term health.

|Fri, 12 May 2006 20:07:35 GMT
Thanks David! It seems to run fine on the simple plans that I have tried though I do have a few quick comments and observations.. 1) Should the version in the schema name be updated (from 1.0 -> 1.1) for both jetty and tomcat plans? For example, the following line is unchanged when the tool is run.. <web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web/tomcat-1.0"> 2) When using a unicode file as input (on windows platform) the output file isn't created in unicode format. 3) On windows platform, it seems that CR (x'0D') is inserted on the end of every line.. This appears as a musical note in my editor :) -Dave- David Jencks wrote: > I put the upgrade jar at > > http://people.apache.org/~djencks/geronimo-upgrade-1.1-SNAPSHOT.jar > > It would be very helpful to find out to what extent this works in real > life. > > It's supposed to include all the classes it needs (that's why its so big) > > usage: > > java -jar geronimo-upgrade-1.1-SNAPSHOT.jar <path to source plan> [<path > to target plan>] > > if you leave out the target, you'll get output in the same directory as > the source. > > thanks > david jencks > > >

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

June 23rd is Sonic the Hedgehog's 20th birthday. Sonic and I haven't had the best relationship - I sided with the SNES during the Great Console War of the Early 90's. Plus, the Sonic games' run-so-fast-you'll-miss-things style of gameplay kinda went against my gaming nature (I'm a bit of a collector for in-game items). I did eventually get to play the first few Genesis ones, and even some of the Sega CD Sonics (yuck).
Anyway, Sega decided to celebrate by dropping off some delicious Georgetown Cupcakes all the way from the East Coast. And stick around after the video for some photos taken by 1UP's Community Assistant, Janine.
*This blog post was actually a re-post of the GameVideos page, but Koalacherry yelled at me to write more stuff, so... thanks for reading about my brief personal history about Sonic.

If i create a symlink in Linux it works as expected in Linux. In Windows it appears as a file and we can't follow it.
If i create a link in Windows with mklink (

The problem is that i want to create the links in the Linux side and make them work on both sides.

The residential yard is an integral part of the urban ecosystem. Individual preferences and social expectations influence homeowners' yard care choices, which in turn affect urban ecology. However, little is known about residents' conceptions of their yards as part of the urban ecosystem. We asked how homeowners conceive of their yard as part of the urban ecosystem by examining urban ecosystem concepts embedded within homeowners' descriptions and stories of their yards. Our study sites included an urban and suburban area in the Saint Paul-Minneapolis metropolitan area of Minnesota, USA. We found that people's understandings of their yards as urban ecosystems are complex but have prominent gaps. Salient concepts included biotic and abiotic interactions within the yard, linkages of human inputs and weeds across yards and watersheds, and yards as social space. Stories described managing dynamic ecological processes within yards to maintain a steady state and limiting linkages of human inputs beyond the yard. Prominent gaps included ecological cycles, biodiversity, and ecosystem services within yards and ecological linkages across yards. In general, people conceived of their yards in terms of inputs rather than cycles and in terms of creating barriers between their yards and surrounding areas rather than fostering ecological interconnections across them. We provide recommendations for resident outreach programs based on our findings. Finally, our study presents a challenge to urban ecosystem research to unravel where there are gaps in understandings of urban ecosystems versus where there is resistance to incorporating certain ecological interactions within the residential yard.

Brain Hemorrhage Directory
A brain hemorrhage is caused by bleeding in the brain and is also a type of stroke. When the brain bleeds, the affected area swells and increases pressure on the brain, which can cause death to brain cells and permanent brain damage. Trauma, a ruptured aneurysm, high blood pressure, liver disease, and more factors can lead to a brain hemorrhage.

Creating the perfect loaf of bread--a challenge that has captivated bakers for centuries--is now the rage in the hippees places, from Waitsfield, Vermont, to Point Reyes Station, California. Like the new generation of beer drinkers who consciously seek out distinctive craft-brewed beers, many people find that their palates have been reawakened and re-educated by the taste of locally baked, whole-grain breads. Today's village bakers are finding an important new role--linking tradition with a sophisticated new understanding of natural levens, baking science and oven construction.
Daniel Wing, a lover of all things artisinal, had long enjoyed baking his own sourdough bread. His quest for the perfect loaf began with serious study of the history and chemistry of bread baking, and eventually led to an apprenticeship with Alan Scott, the most influential builder of masonry ovens in America.
Alan and Daniel have teamed up to write this thoughtful, entertaining, and authoritative book that shows you how to bake superb healthful bread and build your own masonry oven. The authors profile more than a dozen small-scale bakers around the U.S. whose practices embody the holistic principles of community-oriented baking based on whole grains and natural leavens.
The Bread Builders will appeal to a broad range of readers, including:
Review from Ecology Action Newsletter- The Bread Builders: Hearth Loaves and Masonry Ovens, by Daniel Wing and Alan Scott, is a serious book, written for people who take their bread baking seriously. It is not a cookbook but one whose object is to help the baker understand all parts of the process that go into creating an excellent loaf. As such, it is a technical journal that thoroughly details natural fermentation, bread grains and flours, leavens and dough, and dough development. The second part is about masonry ovens and their construction, since both authors agree that such an oven is a necessary part of creating the excellent loaf. Each chapter of the book includes a visit to a commercial or private venture which is using some or all of the processes being described. The book is not a light read but should prove inspiring to those wanting more information about the baking process, how to construct a masonry oven or anyone who is glad to see that these traditional methods are being nurtured rather than forgotten.

Lamby Lambpants understands how it feels to be hurt.
The sassy cartoon lamb had an awful encounter with the family dog, which resulted in his deformity — missing eyes.
Some might say Lamby lost the battle. But did he?
Wearing his blue-cuffed pants, Lamby's owner discovered a plastic water bottle cap would conceal his missing eyes.
Through the blue bottle cap, magic and wondrous powers evolved in Lamby's life, creating a heartwarming story of hope, love and courage for children of all ages.
Co-founders Byron and Tina Patterson established Love & Fleece LLC in Tarpon Springs in hopes of fueling positive inspirations for children in need.
"Our toys subliminally show kids that boldly accepting your imperfections can be liberating, that having a physical flaw can be like wearing a badge of courage," Patterson said. "Lamby's missing his eyes and he wears a goofy prosthetic, but his spirit's whole and his confidence is strong. In fact, having a physical impairment is the very thing that makes his ego, as well as his heart, larger than life."
Through original songs, drawings, poems, short stories and parodies, Patterson creates a message: "spread the happy, not the cranky."
For every Lamby sold, the Pattersons donate an additional plush toy to a sick or needy child.
Forty-two Lamby Lambpants, the first character in their planned line of plush toys, were given to Jessie's Place — a Citrus County child advocacy center in Beverly Hills.
"We wanted the kids to understand that just like this doll and his magical story that they don't have to be perfect just like he isn't perfect," said Joanne Peters, CEO and founder of Courtroom Dogs for Kids Inc. "But he is special and loved like they are."
She continued, "It's really important for them to know to not believe everything they have been told since they were born," Peters said. "Everything is going to be OK and you are not a loser or this or that."
Peters said Courtroom Dogs for Kids Inc. is an organization that has registered and trained therapy dogs that serve as calming companions to children who have been traumatized and who must testify to these circumstances. These dog companions visit Jessie's Place and have noticed a difference in the children since they have received Lamby.
"Carol, a therapist at Jessie's Place, tells me that they just love Lamby," said Lorraine Clark, vice president of Courtroom Dogs for Kids Inc. "They just hold him and know that he is theirs and their protector. It's a reminder to them that there are people out there that love them and will take care of them and keep them safe. That's exactly what Lamby was created for. No matter what your deficit is there is always someone there that loves you. The lamb is like a shield and friend to them when they are not feeling good. They have the lamb to bring with them wherever they are."
Peters feels that Lamby is a constant reminder and companion.
"I don't care how old they are, I think they think that the unknown is scary," Peters said. "When they have been taken out their home, no matter how bad it is — it's the known. As bad as it might be, it's a lot better than the unknown. They are trying to find their way through this unknown and they don't know which way to go or what to do. They have Guardian ad Litems, therapists, Courtroom Dogs and all that, but at the end of the day they are by themselves. Now they are not — they have Lamby. We all need something to hang onto at points in our lives."
Peters is encouraging citizens of Citrus County to purchase a Lamby toy and make a difference in a child's life.
"Some how we have to figure out how to get people to buy one for Jessie's Place so that he can give more Lamby's to Jessie's Place," Peters said. "That's two that will go to Jessie's Place. There are 1,500 children in the system in Citrus County. If people want to do something that is very concrete and positive for kids here, they can buy one of these to be donated to Jessie's Place."

Re: Amex Backdating
Looks right.
- After 2 statements, Equifax reports a clean 81 month history for backdated Amex. A manual reviewer cannot say when the account was really opened. TU and EX show the actual history and manual reviewers can spot the difference. Still great for overall Credit/AAoA and scores etc for auto approvals
- Transunion always reports the exact month and day the account was "opened" in the Amex systems. This is also a handy way to know when you are eligible for the first CLI. If Account opened shows as XX/YY/ZZZZ in TU, 61day CLI date is XX+2/YY+1. Example your account opened date in TU says 6/15/1998, first CLI eligible date is 08/16/2012. Another reason why opening Amex in January rocks.

I see the Kenai City Fathers are making good on their plan to get the hoards of dip-netters to the South side of the Kenai River in exactly the same amount of time and driving the exact same distance as it has taken before at the original beach entry, Dunes Rd. The one exception to the timeliness issue occurred for the first time two summers ago when the owner of the large white house adjacent to Dunes Rd. erected a fence around his property on the beach.
On behalf of my family I would like to offer thanks to the owners of TrustWorthy Hardware, and their staff for welcoming us to their facility for several weekends. Thanks are also due to Kalifornsky Christian Center, and pastor Steve Toliver.
In addition, thank you to the many friendly community-members who purchased cookies at our bake sales.
The funds raised will help send our son Nathanael on a missions trip to Laos. The organization he is going with is Chi Alpha, from the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus.
I would like to express my gratitude to Tina who works as the Obamacare navigator at PCHS. This program has been very useful and fruitful for my husband and myself. Having public locations such as schools and libraries to meet at reached out to us; and then Tina taking the time to meet us as our location is extremely helpful, especially to those of us unable to make it into her office.
Thank you PCHS for this free service. Thank you Tina for your dedication, concern, and problem solving skills.
Two of the three recipes offered for your Mother's Day celebration come from cookbooks worth owning. The "Baked Ham and Cheese Savory Custard," from Tessa Kiros' strikingly beautiful "Apples for Jam" cookbook, may remind you of a breakfast strata, except this dish does not require the customary overnight stay in your refrigerator before baking. From start to finish, the "light and tasty" casserole, a "variation on ham and cheese sandwiches," is ready to serve in under an hour.
Our legislature will be allowing concealed guns on UA campuses soon. Everything that can help Alaska's students to get A's in college needs to be done right now.
I feel compelled to comment on the "unfortunate" job of refereeing during the Kenai-SoHi soccer game on April 14.
Although there are always calls that we might disagree with in sports, the repeated denial of penalties and injuries inflicted by SoHi against Kenai elevates the seriousness of this situation. These were not a question of degree; they were outright penalties that the ref chose not to assess against SoHi.
With the 47th annual observance of Earth Day just around the corner, this is a great time to explore more effective ways of slowing climate change and conserving Earth's natural resources for future generations.
A 2010 UN report charged animal agriculture with 19 percent of man-made greenhouse gases — more than all transport — and recommended a global shift to a vegan diet. A subsequent World Watch study placed that contribution closer to 50 percent.
Congratulations to Robert Ruffner on his fish board appointment. Talk about a reversal of fortune compared to all the flap a year ago. Alan Cain, from Anchorage, made a comment about "evenly distributing fish," whatever that means. Israel Payton, former Mat-Su AC member, wrote specifically antagonistic proposals against the commercial fishery in the past. Mr. Ruffner will be one of seven, but hopefully he can carry on with some stewardship actions on the Kenai River and elsewhere.
I have lived, worked and raised a family in Kenai for over 47 years. I, like many of you love our state and the beauty and opportunities that it has to offer. Unfortunately, we've gotten ourselves into quite a fiscal mess and those opportunities are disappearing. I would think all of us have played some part in creating this debt over the years. I visited the web site "www.plan4alaska.com" as suggested by many of our legislators. Once you begin manipulating the numbers it won't take long before you'll be sick to your stomach. So, what now?

I've always wondered about that endearing connection between fallen Soldiers and the returning veterans who come back to honor and remember them.
Like one Memorial Day ceremony in Margraten American Cemetery in Holland. At its conclusion, I decided in the time I had left to walk through as many of the rows of heroes as possible and say their names, see where they were from. See if there was anybody from my state, that's Texas, HOOAH! I wanted to say thanks and reassure them they are not and will never be forgotten.
Within in a few minutes, an elderly woman came jostling by. She caught my attention for many reasons. First she was dressed rather oddly in an old-fashioned dress accompanied by a dated hat.
Despite the solemn occasion, she had a brilliant grin on her face. And although a senior citizen, there was a defiant spring in her step - definitely a lady with a purpose.
The huge bag she carried was what really sparked my curiosity. I couldn't imagine what was in it, but I didn't have to wait long to find out.
She stopped about five markers down from me and began pulling various items out. The first was an old Army jacket that she lovingly placed around the horizontal arms of the cross.
Next, she spread out a most beautiful quilt, undoubtedly homemade, and then strategically placed various pieces of memorabilia about.
There was a vast assortment of pictures and what looked like high school or college year books. There was even an old kewpie doll I decided the Soldier she was visiting had won for her, and she'd kept it all these years.
It was her next item that sent me and other onlookers frantically searching for a handkerchief. After a close inspection of a champagne bottle, she expertly uncorked it, and poured two glasses.Then came what I can only describe as an eloquent toast to her "hero." After placing his glass gently in front of the memorial, she seated herself for what was obviously going to be a long afternoon's visit.
That was the moment I knew: the lady was on a date! And then it all made sense. Her outfit was from the '40s. I fantasized this must have been what she was wearing when they met, maybe on their first date.
The champagne was undoubtedly left over from their wedding and she had saved it for just this moment. When she held up the pictures I assumed they were of children, and I hoped he'd had the chance to know them.
The desire to join and learn about her special quest was raging inside me, but to intrude on such a personal observance would have been unforgivable. I resumed my own mission and every so often checked to see how the "date" was going. Each time I found her holding up pictures or other mementos and conversing heartily.
Later, I found out her Soldier was simply her fiancAfA. They had never had the chance to marry, raise a family or grow old together. And while she had resumed her place in life with a career and considerable volunteering, she had chosen not to enter into another personal relationship. It was enough for her to come back every year on Memorial Day and celebrate it in this same fashion. At the last count, she's kept the date for 43 years. I like believing she's there every Memorial Day.
There were other private memorial services held by veterans throughout the cemetery that afternoon. I truly believe each and every conversation and prayer shared that day were heard by the living and those destined never to return home.
I distinctly detected the soft drawl of a young man whose marker indicated he was from Texas. He was asking me if I was available for a little Texas two-step that evening to which I replied, "You bet, Soldier!"

Hike, climb, ski? How about all three? The super-versatile Millet Women's Monterosa Softshell Pant has all the essentials for cold, inclement weather protection in a highly breathable and stretchy package that is appropriate for any or all alpine activity.

Element Shield Activ three-layer fabric shields you from wind and snow while allowing better mobility and breathability than hardshell fabrics so it won't hold you back during high-intensity activities. The microfleece lining adds a touch of coziness, and the semi-elastic waistband has a bit of give for comfortable movement. Boot gaiters keep snow out, and reinforced cuffs boost durability.

Since the temperatures have dropped and rain has turned into snow, I have been really enjoying testing these pants in beginning winter conditions. So far, it's been a blast! They are withstanding PNW wet/cold environment .
Size: 26 in waist, 36 in hips, 5 ft 2 in. I usually wear size 2 / XS pants. Millet Monterosa fit me perfectly in XS size. They are snug around my waist and butt and have just the right length to go over my boots without any extra material bunching up at the bottom. This might be an issue for someone who is tall.
Quality: Outstanding! Dry coating works great in moist conditions, perfect for a day out in the snow or rain. The material is thick with fleece cover on the inside which kept me warm in sub freezing conditions- no long underwear needed. Monterosa pants are super flexible which makes them great for a variety of activities from touring to ice climbing. Warm and durable softshell pants have some drawbacks- in my opinion they donât fit 'lightweight' category and they are pretty bulky when packed.
Style: Simplicity is the key: two side pockets, one pocket in the back and two bottom side zippers that increase the calf size to accommodate larger boots (like ski boots). These pants are pretty straightforward- all pockets are large enough to fit a cell-phone and extra, all zippers work without snagging.
Iâve been enjoying these pants while skiing in resorts as well as backcountry. I plan to try myself in ice climbing this season and I will definitely be bringing Monterosa plants for more testing. So far, I have no reason to doubt their performance. Big thanks to Millet for making great quality gear for a reasonable price!
edit: love these pants! unfortunately ended up with a broken leg while wearing them, so they got cut in the ER. Cant say much about durability, only got to wear them for 2 months but the fit and performance was phenomenal. I think I will get myself another pair next ski season.

I would like to create a slideshow on a webpage linking to a presentation.
Could you please help me do this?
The code is as below:
function loadCountryRegion() {
var selectedCountryName = document.getElementById("listCountry").value;
No, there is no misspelling. When I select the country name from the drop down list function does not get the name but when I click on submit button it gets. So I am wandering why it happens?
listCountry is the id of 1st listbox (<select>) and listCountryRegion is the id of 2nd which I would like to populate based
on the 1st one.
I am developing my project using Java web technologies...
Hi everybody!
I want to load one listbox on the basis of the another in Java. The following function should work while I change country list.
function loadCountryRegion() {
