Cholesterol Drug Cuts Heart Risk in Healthy Patients
AstraZeneca PLC's cholesterol drug Crestor sharply lowered risk of heart attacks among apparently healthy patients in a major study that challenges longstanding heart-disease prevention strategies. The findings could substantially broaden the market for statins, the world's best-selling class of medicines.
Heart experts said the findings, presented Sunday at the annual scientific meeting of the American Heart Association in New Orleans, could reshape cholesterol-treatment guidelines used for more than a decade to fight cardiovascular disease, the world's leading killer. They also could help AstraZeneca boost its 9% share of the global cholesterol-drug market, which exceeds $15 billion and is now dominated by generic statins and by Pfizer Inc. PFE 0.05 % 's Lipitor.
The study, called Jupiter, found that Crestor reduced the risk of heart-related death, heart attacks and other serious cardiac problems by 44% compared with those given placebos. The 17,802 participants were entering prime heart-attack ages -- over 50 years for men and over 60 for women -- but none had evidence of serious heart disease or cholesterol levels high enough to call for treatment under current guidelines.
All participants did have elevated levels in their blood of C-reactive protein, or CRP, an inflammatory marker that in previous studies has been shown to identify patients at heart risk independent of their cholesterol levels. Half of heart attacks occur in people with normal cholesterol. As a result, some experts say the study supports broad use of a high-sensitivity CRP test to find people who may be falsely assured by low cholesterol levels that they are protected from trouble and determine if they might be candidates for treatment. High-sensitivity CRP tests are available just like cholesterol lab tests, and are already covered by insurance in many cases.
"This takes prevention to a new level," said Douglas Weaver, head of cardiology at Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, who wasn't involved with the Jupiter study. "It defines a new population" of patients at risk.
Others urged caution. "Before we expand treatment indications in any drastic way, we need to do due diligence," said Mark Hlatky, a cardiologist at Stanford University. "The idea that everybody should get CRP measured is premature and not backed up by good data." Little is known about the long-term effects of the aggressively low cholesterol levels achieved in the study, he added.
Moreover, despite large relative benefits, the actual number of patients helped was small. Those on the drug suffered 142 major cardiovascular events compared with 251 on placebo, a difference of 109. Dr. Hlatky said that raises questions about the cost-effectiveness of CRP screening and the value of putting millions of low-risk patients on medication for the rest of their lives.
Jupiter is the talk of the heart meeting in New Orleans, which is expected to draw more than 25,000 cardiologists and other attendees involved in battling cardiovascular disease. Doctors and investors have been awaiting the results since last March, when the trial was halted after an interim check found overwhelming benefit for the drug. That was after patients had been followed for an average of just 1.9 years, two years earlier than planned.
The findings will stir new debate in a field already divided over the role of high-sensitivity CRP testing in clinical practice. They are certain to figure in deliberations of U.S. cholesterol experts who plan a major update of prevention and cholesterol guidelines next year. Jupiter researchers estimate that six million people in the U.S. meet the criteria of those participating in the study and thus might benefit from statin therapy; some analysts put the number above 10 million.
The study comes after the uproar early this year when the cholesterol drug Vytorin failed to show a benefit in a trial involving a controversial surrogate for heart risk. The episode involving the Merck MRK 0.41 % & Co. and Schering-Plough Corp. drug triggered skepticism about the value of statin therapy and the benefit of lowering LDL, or bad cholesterol. Researchers said the new data should dispel those concerns.
"This is very reassuring for statins as a class and for the public at large," said Paul Ridker, a cardiologist at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital who led the Jupiter study. The drugs "are highly effective at doing what really matters," preventing serious heart-related events.
In the study, which randomized patients to 20 milligrams of Crestor or placebo, LDL cholesterol among patients taking the drug plunged 50% to an average of 55, the lowest achieved to date in a major statin study. CRP fell 37% and wasn't associated with how much LDL was reduced. Deaths from any cause were reduced by 20%, the first time that has been shown in people without diagnosed heart disease. Among women, the drug lowered risk of major events 46%, with a similar reduction for blacks and Hispanics. Risk of a first heart attack, stroke and the need for procedures to clear or bypass clogged arteries declined at rates from 46% to 54%.
"Those benefits are approximately twice as large as what doctors expect when you use statins in patients with [high cholesterol]," Dr. Ridker said. "And they didn't have [high cholesterol]. What they had was high CRP."
Dr. Ridker, who is an inventor on CRP-related patents held by Brigham and who along with co-authors has received grants and other fees from AstraZeneca, presented the data. The study was published online Sunday by the New England Journal of Medicine.
It isn't known from the study how much of the benefit results from LDL lowering and how much might be attributed to lower CRP. Other statins, including Lipitor and generic simvastatin, have been shown to lower both.
Dr. Ridker said an analysis by study statistician Robert Glynn of Brigham estimated that applying the Jupiter findings to medical practice for six million Americans for five years would prevent 250,000 major cardiovascular events. The study suggests 25 patients would need to be treated for five years to prevent one major event, a number Dr. Ridker says appears at least as cost effective as strategies screening for high LDL.
Reports of serious adverse events were evenly divided -- 1,352 on the drug and 1,377 on placebo -- as were reports of muscle weakness -- 1,421 on the drug and 1,375 on placebo. Muscle side effects cause some patients to go off statins. There were 270 cases of diabetes among Crestor patients, compared with 216 on placebo.
For London-based AstraZeneca, which sponsored the study, Jupiter fills a big void. Crestor, which had sales of $2.6 billion in the first nine months of this year, up 24% over the same period in 2007, is the most potent statin for reducing LDL cholesterol.
Still, the company faces challenges in quickly converting the Jupiter findings to higher sales. For one thing, it can't aggressively market the results until regulator approval of a label change reflecting the data. That isn't likely until 2010.
Analysts are split on the likely impact of the study. Morgan Stanley analysts predicted Crestor revenue could rise to as much as $8 billion and 18% of the global statin market in 2014.
But Timothy Anderson of Sanford C. Bernstein said in a note to investors that physician adoption of the data could be tempered by questions over the safety of aggressive long-term treatment of patients with normal cholesterol.

Hi everyone. I'm trying to make posts that have custom fields which contain numerical decimals, e.g.,
234.34, 500.00, 3000.00. Now, I want to sort those posts by using a custom
I did the
meta_key=decimal&orderby=meta_value thing, but I'm having a problem because it's sorting alphabetically. So in doing that, it is treating 500.00 to be greater than 3000.00. Is there a way for me to fix this by modifying the query? Or maybe a custom function?
Any help will be much appreciated.

I have been trying to figure out how to install and register IIS using an Inno Setup Script, but I have so far been unsuccessful.
I need to create an application, application pool with .Net version 4 and a virtual directory, get the machine's IP and proceed to edit the bindings of the website with this IP.
So far all that works in my install is checking to see if IIS is installed.
If anyone has ever done anything like this before, I would really appreciate if you could share your script.
Thank you.

My managing editor has "recommended" that I stop posting so much about my hero Agent Zero. So, we agreed that I'd only post about Gilbert Arenas when he posted 40 points or more. (You'll remember, Jillbert went for 44 against Boston on Sunday night. )
Well, I came home from work yesterday pretty stoned on life alreadyDemocrats took the house, Rumsfeld out, Democrats take the Senate!!!!, Susan Owens beat Stephen Johnson with 60 percentand then I tuned in the Washington Wizards game. Well, not only are the Wizards beating Indiana by 35 points, but Gilbert's got 37 points … in the third quarter. Coach Eddie Jordan took Gilbert out with 10 minutes to go in the 4th after Jill landed another jumper to hit 40 on 14 of 20 from the field and 8 of 9 from the line.

The 208-hp 2.0-liter turbo four in the CLA250 combines numerous advances to deliver more power from less fuel. Its rapid-multispark ignition and high-pressure Direct Injection can fine-tune themselves in milliseconds. Its twin-scroll turbo quickly spins up to 230,000 rpm to boost response, with all of the engine's 258 lb-ft of torque on tap at just 1,250 rpm. Widely variable timing of all 16 valves and innovative 3-phase cooling team up to reduce emissions while raising your emotions.
An ECO Start/Stop system automatically shuts off the engine at stoplights and other idle situations, to save fuel and reduce emissions. As soon as the driver lifts off the brake, the engine instantly restarts, for immediate acceleration response. The ECO Start/Stop system can also be shut off by the driver at any time.
The racing-inspired 7-speed transmission combines the sporty response of a manual, the smooth refinement of an automatic, and better efficiency than either. Dual clutches offer quicker gear changes than a human can shift a traditional manual gearbox, while three overdrive ratios boost highway mpg. Selectable ECO, Sport and Manual modes let you favor fully automatic efficiency and comfort, intensified response, or shift-for-yourself excitement via the steering wheel-mounted shift paddles.
A pair of paddles strategically positioned behind the upper steering-wheel spokes allows you to manually upshift and downshift the 7-speed DCT transmission with just a flick of your fingers.
Engineered to balance quick-witted responsiveness with quiet refinement, the 4-wheel independent suspension of the CLA features a combination of MacPherson struts and wishbones up front, with a four-link design at the rear.
A first for Mercedes-Benz in the U.S., the CLA's front-wheel drive system is an ideal match for the car's sporty demeanor and efficient packaging. Impeccable calibration of the Electronic Stability Program (ESP®) and Electronic Traction System (ETS®) enhances tire bite under hard acceleration, while equal-length driveshafts virtually eliminate undesirable torque steer. The compact powertrain design also allows for generous cabin and trunk space within the CLA's sleek profile.
A multimode drive program selector on the dash lets you transform the CLA's character with the touch of a button. Three modes (ECO, Sport and Manual) alter the throttle response and shift points, with the Manual mode offering full control of gear changes via the shift paddles on the steering wheel.
Advanced electromechanical power steering delivers quicker response in corners, easier maneuvering at low speeds, along with precise on-center feel and straight-line stability.
Inspired by its trendsetting big brother, the CLS, the CLA is a near-verbatim translation of the acclaimed Concept Style Coupe showcar that captivated the international auto show circuit. Flowing curves are joined by crisp, sweeping arcs to create a three-dimensional sculpture that's enticing from every angle. Frameless door glass, an expressive front fascia and taut proportions define it as a true, and truly modern, Mercedes-Benz 4-door coupe.
Bold, wide and upright, the CLA grille is an instantly recognizable icon of automotive passion. While its curved borders are echoed in the headlamps and draw the eye to its bulging "twin power dome" hood, its impeccable detail inspires more than a lingering glance. Radiating from the central Star is a series of intricate haxagonal "pins," each one individually shaped by the car's designer to optimize both aesthetics and airflow. Each pin is tipped in chrome with the optional Sport Package.
In the Mercedes-Benz coupe tradition, the CLA cabin combines four sporty seats with a clear focus on driving enjoyment. Yet in an ultramodern twist, the CLA includes room for a fifth passenger along with a fresh take on its ergonomically ideal displays and controls. A new 7-inch freestanding screen takes center stage atop the winglike dash, while aluminum-ringed air vents would be equally at home in a private jet. Every shape and surface is designed to please the eye and invite the touch.
A sporty new design for the standard 17-inch wheels features five wide spokes with subtle sculpting. They're outfitted with all-season Extended Mobility tires. Disclaimer
With thick padding and a leather-wrapped rim with perforated side grips, the 3-spoke steering wheel puts the delights of precise handling literally in your hands. For fingertip access to some of the vehicle functions you use most often, convenient buttons adjust the audio, access your Bluetooth® phone and activate the available voice control. You can also scroll through the features of the illustrated multifunction display in the instrument cluster, with a "home" button further enhancing its convenience.
With an intriguing texture and cool anthracite tone, the standard dash and door trim brings sporty refinement to the CLA cabin. It's particularly effective at highlighting the high-quality, low-sheen metallic trim encircling the five dashboard air vents and instrument cluster.
Controlled via the multifunction steering wheel, this sharp color display in the instrument cluster lets you scroll through various screens, including a trip computer, numerous programmable vehicle settings, as well as the audio system status and more.
An advanced system of 8 air bags offers 10-way occupant protection. Dual two-stage front air bags, front side-impact head/torso air bags, dual front knee air bags, and side curtain air bags for both seating rows are standard. Disclaimer
Radar-based technology alerts you if you're approaching a vehicle ahead, or even some stationary objects, at a speed and distance that suggest a collision is likely. As soon as the driver starts to brake, its Adaptive Brake Assist automatically provides the ideal level of braking, to help prevent a collision or reduce its severity. The system can also provide autonomous braking from speeds up to 65 mph. Disclaimer
The first system of its kind, ATTENTION ASSIST® continuously monitors up to 70 different parameters of driving behavior, and can automatically alert the driver with both visual and audible warnings if it detects signs of drowsiness on long trips. Disclaimer
Arguably our most important passive safety feature, all four outboard 3-point seat belts are equipped with Emergency Tensioning Devices (ETDs) and belt force limiters. If a collision exceeds a preset threshold, ETDs instantly remove slack from the seat belts. Belt force limiters allow a slight amount of give in the seat belts, to reduce the peak seat-belt forces on the occupant.
A system of interconnected elements work together to help protect the occupants in a collision. High-strength/low-alloy (HSLA) and ultra-high-strength steel are used in critical areas such as the roof pillars, floor and roof crossmembers, door beams and various reinforcements throughout the body. Advanced front and rear crumple zones deform progressively to help absorb the energy of an impact, while the front bulkhead helps channel some impact forces under, over, and around the cabin.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can automatically detect a substantial loss of tire pressure in any wheel and alert the driver via a warning message in the multifunction display. The advanced TPMS can also display the numeric tire pressure for each mounted wheel.
Adaptive braking technology integrates a suite of advances. If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs for more immediate response when you apply the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically applies the brakes just enough to sweep water build-up from the discs. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a brake HOLD feature can make long red lights or stopped traffic a little easier. Disclaimer
BAS® senses emergency braking via the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal, and immediately applies maximum available power boost. By eliminating the delay caused by a common human tendency not to brake hard enough, soon enough, Brake Assist can potentially reduce the overall stopping distance. Letting up on the brake pedal releases BAS. Disclaimer
The Antilock Braking System (ABS) senses impending wheel lockup under heavy braking, and pumps the front brakes individually or the rear brakes together up to 30 times per second. By preventing wheel lockup, ABS helps preserve the driver's steering ability during hard braking. Disclaimer
This safety breakthrough first introduced by Mercedes-Benz continually monitors your driving inputs and the vehicle's motion to help keep it going in your intended direction, especially in corners and during evasive maneuvers. If it detects wheelspin, severe understeer (plowing), or oversteer (fishtailing), ESP® can brake individual wheels and reduce engine power to help bring the vehicle under control. Disclaimer
ESP®, our standard Electronic Stability Program, also incorporates our Electronic Traction System (ETS®), which monitors for the first sign of wheel slip and responds to ensure torque is sent to the front wheel with better grip. Disclaimer
The convenient electronic parking brake can be set or disengaged at the touch of a button. It also automatically releases when you shift into gear and step on the accelerator. This feature also increases usable footwell and console space by eliminating the need for a mechanical brake pedal or handle.
The SmartKey remote control integrates remote door locks and trunk opener, a removable valet key, and a remote panic alarm. You may selectively unlock only the driver´s door and fuel filler, or all doors plus the trunk and fuel filler. The vehicle can be started via a pushbutton in the dash, thanks to a standard KEYLESS-START feature.
Program your Mercedes-Benz to illuminate its exterior lights when you unlock it in darkness, to help illuminate a path to your vehicle.
The standard antitheft alarm system is armed automatically when you lock your CLA from the outside. It sounds the horn and flashes the exterior lights if a door, the trunk or the hood is opened without first unlocking the vehicle. You can also sound the alarm by pressing the red "panic" button on your SmartKey remote when you´re within range of your vehicle.
Rain-sensing windshield wipers automatically adjust the intermittent wiper frequency based on the amount of rainfall.
Separate left and right temperature controls allow the driver and front passenger to enjoy personalized comfort. In addition to fully automatic or manual control of blower speed and airflow distribution, the system includes a dust and pollen filter that helps keep particles as small as 0.0002-inch from entering the cabin. Five adjustable vents in the dash and a pair of rear-cabin air vents help maintain passenger enjoyment throughout the cabin.
Five years of mbrace Connect gives you remote access to your car from your smartphone or computer. The mbrace Mobile App puts remote vehicle controls and numerous other conveniences on your phone. You can access Google, Yelp and more with an ever-growing variety of in-vehicle apps. You can send destinations to your COMAND® navigation system from your computer or phone. Even your car can reach out, with remote diagnostics and a direct connection to Mercedes-Benz Roadside Assistance. Disclaimer
Intuitive, seat-shaped controls help you find your ideal driving position with 12-way power adjustment, including 4-way power lumbar support. A memory system for the driver seat recalls three stored positions for the seat plus the power side mirrors.
Both front seats feature sport contours with deep side bolsters. A new feature lets you extend the front of the seat cushion for added thigh support. All four outboard seats feature racing-inspired integrated head restraints.
Individually folding rear seatbacks allow you to expand the cargo capacity of your CLA while still carrying a rear passenger. The release handles are in the trunk, so they're conveniently located where you'll need them, and can be kept out of reach simply by valet-locking the trunk. A new folding center armrest includes dual cupholders. Disclaimer
For long-term comfort and lower-back support, the driver's seat offers a lumbar support that precisely adjusts in/out and up/down.
A network of strategically placed LEDs casts a soothing and stylish yet unobtrusive glow on key interior areas, including the outside step area when you open any door. Illumination from beneath the front-seat head restraints accentuates the racy design of the seats while adding to rear-cabin passengers' sense of well-being when riding in darkness.
With 13.1 cubic feet of space, the trunk of a CLA provides ample room for your groceries, golf clubs or luggage.
Whether you're stuck in traffic or stopped on a hill, the HOLD feature lets you keep the brakes applied without your foot on the brake pedal. After bringing the vehicle to a stop, an additional press of the brake pedal activates the feature and illuminates a "HOLD" icon in the instrument cluster, letting you know you can relax your foot. The brake lamps stay illuminated while the car remains braked. When you´re ready to move, just press the accelerator to release the feature and go. Disclaimer
Featuring a large standard 7-inch color display and a central controller on the console, the CLA gives you convenient control of audio, video, hands-free calling and optional navigation functions. Many features can also be accessed via the integrated steering-wheel controls. The freestanding display combines a big viewing area with a sleek design with no need for a bulky visor. Disclaimer
Place and answer calls, and even access select phonebooks without taking your hands off the steering wheel with standard Bluetooth® connectivity for hands-free calling. Pairing your Bluetooth-compatible phone with the vehicle is simpler than ever. Then, just leave your phone in your pocket and enjoy hands-free conversations over the audio system.

The All Nighter
... Carnival. There were a lot of people and a huge truck that plays deafening music and has the rum. As the truck drives, the crowd follows. We stood back from it all and watched as the crowd past. By now it was nearly 6am, so we got back in the van, expecting to go home but Jim said we needed some food so drove us to his parents' house. They were very welcoming of us and made us some cornbeef sandwiches and coffee. We were finally dropped ...
Climbing La Soufriere
I woke up to Mike banging on my front door, when I looked at the clock and it s 6:10. We were meant to be leaving for the volcano at 6am. I quickly got ready and the taxi turned up at 6:30. Dan and Sarah were also coming with us but they had been sensible enough not to come out last night. I felt so rough as I climbed into the van. It was a two hour ride to the base of the volcano. We stopped once at ...

... actually washed their hands between patients (I had heard on surgery they would change wound dressings without gloves and only washing their hands at the end of rounds). Rounds finished at 10:30 and I was told that I could get off, so I took the chance as I wasn't feeling at my best.
I met Beth and Mike on the way home, which was lucky for them as they Lizzy had the key for their apartment and they hadn't been able to find her. So we went back to my apartment ...
Lazy Sunday
I shouldn't have complained about my sleep in Barbados, as last night was even worse! There was a Soca (local music) festival on last night at the stadium which was so loud I was worried if might wake the volcano on the island. I wish I had gone to it, but the other students I met were exhausted and wanted an earlier night and I wasn't quite brave enough to go too far alone on my first night. So the music kept me awake until the early hours of the morning. The bed is ...
The program for today (which happens to be another glorious day) is almost the same as yesterday's--at sea with lecture in the morning and excursions in the afternoon. Around nine there is a surprise announcement that the crew will lower the Zodiacs so that the passengers can take pictures of the ship under sail. My photos aren't perfect, someone's head is always in the way, but the Zodiac ride, my first ever in warm weather, was great fun. And the crew, at last ...

2) The month-long event that just finished up is called the Seattle International Comedy Competition. As so ably pointed out by Cienna Madrid, it was many things to many people...but a "Festival," hardly...
3) The show actually DID include a couple people who were in the competition--including the host of the late show (Dartanion London) and an unexpected guest in that late show (Emmett Montgomery.) Also, the headliner of the early show, Meghan Hounshell (who is of legal drinking age, herself) was a semi-finalist in last year's competition.

Trent Forbes (6), of Invercargill, wants to be ''just like
Dad'' when he grows up.
His father, Gavin Forbes, owns, trains and drives 8-year old
pacer Lord Forbes.
While Mr Forbes, a meatworks butcher, admits his ''hobby
horse'' has not been doing too well lately, that doesn't
matter to Trent.
''I'm going to be just like Dad.''
They were both at the Wyndham Harness Racing Club's Cromwell
meeting yesterday where Trent and mum Rochelle Mathieson
watched Gavin and Lord Forbes in the feature race over 2600m.
Out of 12 horses, they came 11th; Smiling Star won the race.
Mr Forbes said the horse was getting ''reasonably old''. Ms
Mathieson said Lord Forbes had had 114 starts over his 6-year
racing career and yesterday's could be his last.
However, Trent seemed oblivious to the horse's plight. He
said the best thing about race day was ''beating all the
other horses ... and the go-karts''.
Go-karts, or mini jeeps, have kept the children entertained
at all the recent race meetings in Central Otago. Yesterday's
also featured a bouncy castle face-painting and, between
horse races, moonhopper and sack races and a lolly scramble.
Southern Harness Racing promotions officer Lindsay Beer said
more than 2300 people attended the 11-race meeting at

A client I am working for wants a public prayer wall and this seemed like a solution. The only problem is that thus far I have only been able to post prayers as a logged-in user; the site will not have a base of users with accounts. Is there a way to set it so that users do not have to be logged-in to post a prayer? Updating the prayer can still be done by and admin. I figured out only how to have certain users be able to manage the prayers.
Thanks for your help.

I have a friend who just miscarried.Ā Its kind of rough because we all just found out she was pregnant and I'm going into my 19th week and was really excited and invited her out to lunch...the same night she was miscarrying =(
I want to do something special while me and a mutual friend pray for her.Ā She's been trying for a couple years and I want to "weave our prayers" into something special we can give her when she's out of the first trimester with her Rainbow baby.
Because I can't relate, I want to know if this is a good idea or not?Ā You guys have been where she is now and are now experiencing a successful pregnancy (all should be well out of the first trimester by now).
Just some background - I have had pain in life followed by great joy.Ā I have my rainbow moment, if not a rainbow baby.Ā I learned from that that the storm makes the rainbow that much more beautiful.

ATLANTA (AP) - Police say four men are hospitalized after being
shot in what might have been a drug-related gun battle in southwest
A police spokesman, Officer James Polite, says the four - in
their mid 20s to mid 30s - were found in a muffler shop parking lot
and a nearby business just after the shooting was reported about 3
p.m. Tuesday on Metropolitan Parkway.
Polite says they are in surgery at Grady Memorial Hospital. He
does not know their conditions but says "one is more bad off than
the other three."
Polite says investigators found a handgun, 10 spent shell
casings, narcotics and a large amount of cash.
They are unsure what roles the wounded men might have played in the shooting or whether a suspect may be at large.

Pimp My Cop Car
The sheriff's new ride
by Kim Beson
From the December, 2010 issue
Ann Arborites may have seen the Washtenaw County sheriff's new customized ride--a 2009 Chevrolet HHR--parked at Wheeler Park or directing traffic at U-M football games. Featuring a black-and-white paint job, red and blue flashers in the grille, and an LCD TV and a powerful bass system in the back, the department calls the retro-styled station wagon its "community engagement vehicle" (CEV). "We are not making arrests with this vehicle," explains Derrick Jackson, the department's director of community engagement. "It's not something to be feared." Deputy Ray Yee drives the CEV to elementary schools to talk about stranger danger and Internet safety, and shows educational videos at parks, festivals, and community events. When Jackson overheard teens talking about guns at a Ballin' in the Willow basketball game, they put on a video about gun safety.
The makeover was done by the Custom Cars and Concepts class at Washtenaw Community College. The department's only requirements were to make it resemble a police car and to post a disclaimer to forestall any taxpayer complaints: "This vehicle was paid for with drug forfeiture funds."

Hi all,
I'm desperately trying to find a photogallery plugin/widget that allows commenting on each photo, but I'm not having any luck. Does anyone know of such a thing?
I'm looking for something similar to facebook, where comments can be posted for each photo. Is this possible? Or would a seperate blog need to be made or something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone!

Re: Advice for young person (re)buildi
ng credit?
Thanks for all of the advice! Even though I will probably take a hit because of the AAoA - my util will be much lower. Also, because I have so few accounts reporting, I am going to take a big hit on the AAoA. Once I am more established, opening new accounts wouldn't hurt so badly.
Because my #1 goal right now was to increase my credit limit, I decided to go ahead and app the NFCU platinum Visa. I was not approved instantly, so I guess I'll have to sit back and wait to see what happens. Assuming I am approved with a decent limit, I'll sit back for another year or two and consider my options.
Thanks again to everyone for all of the help!

I stayed at this Inn more than a year ago, as a gift from a friend who lives in Monceito, nearby. We both had a lovely room overlooking the ocean. I liked the decor and the private little garden area for sipping wine, or reading. The highway noise was not a big concern. Breakfast was more than ample, and the lobby personnel, the wine service and nibbles, all very happy-making and easy. A walk through the village is a must. Terrific antique shops, garden shops and clothing stores, plus a very fun and lively pub where President Bill Clinton once played the sax, spontaneously, when he was president. I would defiintely return to the Inn on Summerhill. I stayed downstairs in the last room on the left, my friend stayed in the first room on the right, downstairs. We both felt our rooms were furnished nicely, elegantly and made us feel good to be in them. The beds are excellent. Parking is easy. And, you are in paradise - Summerland, Montecito, Santa Barbara? The best.

The Antec Sonata III case comes with a nice 120mm fan that has a 3 speed switch. Most of the time the fan is fine on low, but for games or other taxing workloads I need to switch it to medium or high. Opening the case every time I want to change the setting is kind of a pain.
Has anyone figured out a way to control the speed from the outside of the case without going nuclear (e.g. cutting holes in the case)? Other than this annoyance I like the case and the fan that comes with it.

On October 19, 1973 "The Way We Were" was first released in theaters. (Cue: "Memories".)
The romance sees Robert Redford and Barbara Streisand as star-crossed lovers, pulled away from each other due to the usually deal breakers — political convictions, naval service (and, I guess, curly hair?). In the 39 years since its initial bow, even a mention of its title still elicits a wistful "ugh" and a heart-clutch.
But that reaction is practically tepid compared to that of my mother's. When Babs was pushing away Hubbell's golden locks, she was 17-years-old and it has remained her favorite tear-jerker ever since.
Whenever I would remind her that, no, I have not seen "The Way We Were," she would become wild-eyed and throw up here hands. "Oh, my god!" she'd shriek. "We have to see it. We absolutely must. You will love it. Love." (There aren't enough italics in the world to convey her enthusiasm.) It was like that scene from "Sex and the City." All the time.
So, suffice it to say, we never watched the film together. Until now. Yes, it's another installment of my sob-blog! But for this particular rite of passage, my mother will be here, crying to my left. Destiny, here I come.
Like mother, like daughter.
My mom's nearly-hyperventilating.
Why he is a totally estranged father?
Final hair push. Embrace. I am dying.
"You never give up, do you?" Crying.
She sees him! Outside the plaza! Her hair is c-c-curly!
And now we're back in New York.
Who breaks up during a pregnancy?
"Will you do me one favor, Hubbell? Will you stay with me 'til the baby is born?" WOW. Bleak.
"Wouldn't it be lovely if we were old? We'd have survived all this. Everything thing would be easy and uncomplicated; the way it was when we were young." "Katie, it was never uncomplicated."
"What's wrong with us has nothing to do with another girl."
Hubbelllllllllllllllllllllll, you cheater.
"Are you still a nice gentile boy?" I can't tell you how many times I've said that.
"I'm getting rid of some things in my apartment. For bon voyage." VIXEN.
The beautiful, simple girl has emerged. Be strong, Hubbell. Be strong.
Hubbell and Babs are fighting. Again. About politics. Can't these two crazy kids just get along?!
Hubbell's in a fight! Somebody struck his beautiful face!!
"Katie…" He watching the projection with a smile on his face. "She's beautiful."
They're walking on the beach and wearing so much beige knit. I'm in heaven.
"…tells her gorgeous goyishe guy…" "- Good alliteration." "…That she's pregnant, you see. And… he just looks at her and…"
She's dressed as Harpo Marx — pretty adorable Halloween costume.
Now they live together. And she's putting away their books. And he came over and just picked her up and laid her down on the couch. This is love. First tears have been shed.
Now, they're back together. And on a boat.
"You'll never find anyone as good for you as I am, to believe in you as much as I do or love you as much!" "I know that." "Well then, why?!" HEART-CLENCH.
"It's because I'm not attractive enough, isn't it? I'm not fishing. I know I'm attractive…sort of." This is every awkward duckling's movie.
He came over with sleeping pills. That's nice?
Mom, motioning to computer: "You gotta see it again without any of this."
"Your the best friend I've ever had." She's crying. And pleading with him to come over. "I promise I won't touch you." Wince.

The issue is that.. Roster 1 is willing to trade Backstrom (G) but in return they want Crosby. So... what should Roster 1 add to Backstrom in order to make it fair and get crosby

if i were u i would keep my team the way it is but thats what i would do seems pretty solid all around

im reaching that point as well.. i cant someone i want unless i give up alot for them so i dont think its worth it
umm wut about Crosby and Alfredson for Backstrom Dastsuk and Selanee
what if i offer something like
Crosby and Phanuef
Backstrom (MIN), Zetterberg and Markov
would that be even? am i giving too little or too much or whats good?

A Yahoo! User Dec 3, 2008 1:43 PM Flag
I don't think he would go for that cause Markov and Phanuef are some what even to one another and Markov has more points at the moment. Try this if you like it Langkow and Backstrom for Crosby. Since you are in a small league I'm sure you know that you can go from first to 3rd in 1 week so if I where you I would only change 1 big player of yours cause the change you make could hurt your team more than you think.
goalies are very important so you arent gonna get dats or zetts with backstrom. I think selanne and backstrom for crosby is fair. how many people in this league?
- 1 Reply to Roland
its a 10 team H2H btw.. should have mentioned that
ps: so is my team solid as it is? should i not do many changes?
Roster #1: 62-38-20 .600 144 Rank 3
Roster #2: 63-33-24 .625 150 Rank 1 (thats me)
What kind of league? Not that it matters the following book applies to both Roto and H2H as far as I'm concerned.
Considering your C core you can afford to loose Crosby for a goalie in Backstrom's situation. I would forget about Datsyuk or Zetterberg, that is reaching, but Staal is a thought. You may have to tack on another above average player who is hot right now in a position he needs improvement, but that would make the deal worth it to me.
Try sending Crosby and either Kozlov or Versteeg to him for Backstrom and Staal.
That sounds palatable... but Im still not sure I would do it, your goalies don't look bad to begin with,and they look far better than Team #1's set up. Nabakov is back, Biron has turned it around and will be #1 from here out, and Auld had quality numbers except for the wins and he's not in any position to loose his job. Nabakov and Biron should help make up for the wins so you're golden.
As for Team #1 Osgood has had as bad a year as any goalie could have in Detroit and has split more time with Conklin than he should have had to, Bryzgalov is on the brink of loosing his job, MacDonald will be a memory in a few weeks when DiPietro gets back, and Huet will only be getting full time duty until Khabibulin is healthy again. The only starter without baggage that he has is Backstrom. Not to mention if he's running with that many goalies, his offensive stats are bottoming out or soon will be, making it that much easier for a powerhouse such as yourself to keep rolling.
Don't be too eager to part with Crosby for a goalie you don't really need.
Now if this is a Points league, forget everything I have said, i hate that format and am terrible at it.
Anyway... Good Luck, hope you enjoyed reading!

wow that was an amazing read.. thank you
ask for zetterberg or datsyuk... but you might have to put in more than crosby to get one of those and backstrom.

Just as an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs and made way for small, furry mammals, a new wave of planetary disruptions is about to occur. The new asteroid is called "exponential technology." It is going to wipe out industries in a similar manner to the rock that fell to Earth during the Cretaceous. That is the premise of a new book by Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler.
Imagine a fleet of drones, overhead, out of sight, tens of thousands of feet in the sky. Imagine those drones being powered by sunlight -- effectively aerial satellites that are orbiting constantly, never having to touch down for fuel. Now imagine thousands of them with cameras and radio repeaters on board.

Tech Would You Like to Play a Game?
posted by February 6 at 8:27 AMon
Israel is in the early stages of developing a robotic defense system that has the ability—in "very complex scenarios"—to "generate a level of supreme situational awareness and snap intuitive capabilities that could surpass the very best wartime commanders."
In extreme circumstances, "where the number of incoming weapons could overwhelm todays systems and their human operators, [Israel's] envisioned super system could take over completely."
Even the systems we currently have malfunction some times, killing people. This idea involves extending those systems so that they're actually designed to act completely on their own in certain situations, making it much more likely that some bad input or data sends them down that pre-programmed path.
The Israelis are calling the new system Skynet. Just kidding, they don't have a name for it yet.

A little side project I started working on. Really excited about spending some time on this and figuring out some great ux and design solutions.
Today I thought about finding some nice treatment to illustrate different Issues of something called "interactive magazine".
The style is heavily inspired by the icons I did earlier (http://dribbble.com/shots/665206-File-Browser?list=users and http://dribbble.com/shots/844901-Icon-Collection-II-WIP/attachments/88931), but it aims to be more bold and heavy.
Hope you like it.
