I've arrived at my final assignment of the semester! It's a paper written for the my independent study on The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri. Sounds fun right?
I officially just reached my five page mark, meaning that I am (more or less) half way there. To give myself that extra little boost, I'm posting this crowd-pleasing anthem of Queen.
We can do it! A bond has formed between everyone on campus. People are complaining together (which makes it easier?…), sharing videos on facebook to enhance every moment of every study break (examples here and here), and we motivate each other so that when someone comes back from a final and wants nothing more than to take a nap, we stop them, and bring them out to study some more.

Sentinel node biopsy is an investigational technique to determine the status of the axillary lymph nodes without performing a full axillary dissection. Using radioisotpes or blue dye surgeons identify and remove just one or two lymph nodes (the sentinel nodes) for pathologic evaluation. While this procedure avoids the morbidity of a full axillary dissection, is relies on the theory that cancer spreads in an orderly progression from the breast tissue into the sentinel node then into other nodes in the axilla. However, it remains to be proven whether the status of the sentinel node is indicative of other lymph nodes in the axilla. Towards this end several papers have reported on cohorts of women who undergo sentinel lymph node biopsy followed immediately by an axillary dissection, which allows investigators to determine if the pathologic status of the sentinel lymph node is indicative of rest of the lymph nodes.
Feb 9, 2011 - Patients who have limited sentinel lymph node metastatic breast cancer have similar survival rates when treated with sentinel lymph node dissection or axillary lymph node dissection, according to a study published in the Feb. 9 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Hoarseness refers to a difficulty making sounds when trying to speak. Vocal sounds may be weak, breathy, scratchy, or husky, and the pitch or quality of the voice may change.
Voice strain; Dysphonia; Loss of voice
Hoarseness is most often caused by a problem with the vocal cords, which are part of your voice box (larynx) in the throat.When the vocal cords become inflamed or infected, they swell. This can cause hoarseness.
The most common cause of hoarseness is a cold or sinus infection, which usually goes away on its own within 2 weeks.
Another rare, but serious cause of hoarseness that does not go away in a few weeks is cancer of the voice box.
Less common causes include:
Hoarseness may be short-term (acute ) or long-term (chronic ). Rest and time may improve hoarseness. Hoarseness that continues for weeks or months should be checked by a health care provider.
Things you can do at home to help relieve the problem include:
Call your health care provider if:
The doctor will examine your throat, neck, and mouth and ask you some questions about your symptoms and medical history, including:
You may have one or more of the following tests:

"Westminster encouraged in me an intellectual curiosity and love of learning that has lasted until this day. I can't think of a better compliment or a more effective way to prepare students for success in their chosen careers and in all other aspects of life. Small classes, an accessible and attentive faculty that focuses on teaching, and a caring environment all come together to define the Westminster Way."
Jeffrey Wiley '75
Managing Director
Dickie, McCamey and Chilcote
Pittsburgh, PA
"My career as a lawyer for 33 years and a District Attorney for 20 years was formed in the classrooms and on the athletic fields of Westminster College. Professors developed my lifelong curiosity for learning and an ability to communicate effectively. Titan coaches instilled the need for careful preparation and undaunted discipline and determination. The opportunity to participate in extra activities like wrestling, the radio station and the Mock Convention honed those traits. Westminster's "Winning Tradition" formed the basis for my professional and personal success."
Robert Buehner Jr. '75
District Attorney
Mountour County
Danville, PA
"For four years as an English major, I heard my professors say this repeatedly; if you can communicate effectively through the written and spoken word, you can do any job in the world. We'll teach you how. I didn't necessarily believe them then. I absolutely believe them now. Writing and speaking were the foundation of my liberal arts experience, and they are the tools that I use every day as a professional person."
Richard Dalrymple '82
Public Relations Director
Dallas Cowboys
Coppell, TX
"Looking back, Westminster was not just important for what I learned, but for how I grew and developed while learning. While I may not have realized it at the time, my professors, whatever the subject, were teaching me to think critically – while creating an environment that made it "safe" to try it. Because critical thinking forms the basis for sound judgment and problem-solving, I can say that it has made all the difference."
Deborah Platt Majoras '85
Chief Legal Officer
The Procter & Gamble Company
Cincinnati, OH
"Westminster College has a great reputation as an outstanding liberal arts institution. When I arrived, it somehow felt 'comfortable' and friendly, almost like being at home. My priority and desire was to get a well-rounded education, growing personally, academically, and hopefully professionally. I realized soon after graduation and upon entering the business world, that Westminster helped prepare me to compete extremely well at IBM with peer college hires all over the world -- many with more advanced degrees. My math major and computer science minor helped me logic through some awful tough business challenges and work them through, logically and often times with innovative thinking....and surprisingly my Spanish double major, helped further my career 22 years into IBM, when running our sales operations in Latin America! Having graduated and worked in various locations around the U.S. and worldwide, I can attest that Westminster continues to have a GREAT reputation as a well-rounded liberal arts college that continues to prepare students extremely well for the dynamic, complex challenges of today's world."
Peter Andino '77
Vice President, Global Sales
IBM Sales & Distribution
Norwalk, CT
"Westminster's excellent chemistry program and related research projects gave me a sound technical foundation to be a successful professional chemist upon graduation. The liberal arts education broadened my abilities outside the laboratory to also excel in business, leadership and social settings. I also took full advantage of the cultural and leadership activities both on campus and the global semester's abroad program to expand my horizons. Westminster offered me a great foundation to build on my technical, business and cultural dreams to become the global executive that I am today."
Mary Park '85
Global Color Director
PPG Industries
Strongsville, OH
"Among the things I failed to understand about my Westminster College education until years later was that the value of my degree is continually appreciating. A Westminster degree opens doors and sends the message to potential employers that a candidate can contribute to their organization with a level of insight, understanding and integrity that comes with a liberal arts education from such an outstanding institute of higher learning."
Robert Jackson '91
Chief Executive Officer
Grove City Medical Center
Grove City, PA
"Westminster provided a solid foundation for my life ahead. It was a perfect "fit" and enabled me to gain valuable leadership experience through participation in student activities. Playing a varsity sport for three years taught me how to compete effectively, how to win and lose graciously, as well as how to best manage my time while balancing academics with student activities and intercollegiate athletics. Where else but at a Westminster can one return for a 50th year reunion and be greeted by first and last name by a favorite math professor whom I had not seen for 50 years!"
William W. Rankin '60
Vice President (Retired)
Pfizer Inc. Consumer Health Care Group
Gibsonia, PA
"One of the things that makes Westminster so special is its outstanding faculty and staff. Both provided me with unique opportunities to learn and grow. From co-teaching a class with my advisor to internship opportunities, I gained real-life experience as a public relations major that I don't think I would have received at another college. These experiences gave me an excellent foundation for my career in fundraising."
Julie Weagraff '92
District Director, Development

"A couple of great professors grabbed this kid from Cleveland by the collar and said 'we are going to teach you how to study.' They spent hundreds of hours of their own personal time and did just that. Westminster just wasn't about fine academics, people cared for you as a person and wanted you to succeed--body, mind and spirit. It's the Westminster Way. It's about finding your place in the world and giving back. It is an honor to say I graduated from Westminster and I am especially proud to serve on the Board of Trustees."

"Majoring in mathematics and political science gave me the foundation needed for a legal career. I developed analytical thought processes used in problem solving and an understanding of the roles and relationships of individuals and groups. I learned to account for multiple, and adverse, views and demands in issue resolution. My professors continually encouraged and challenged me, stretching my intellectual curiosity and teaching me to ask the difficult questions – indispensable skills for a lawyer."

"With my professional career now behind me but my learning still ongoing, I truly understand what my professors meant when they told us that Westminster College was "just the beginning." They coached and encouraged us through tough courses, then helped us to get jobs or positions in graduate programs. They cared, almost beyond imagining, and were intellectual, ethical, and moral examples to emulate. We went away, carried on, and made our place, but never forgot them or their support."

"Westminster College provided me with an education, a career … and a spouse! Its faculty, through instruction and example, prepared me for medical school and encouraged me to develop the instruments to be successful in my chosen profession. As the first in my family to obtain a college education, Westminster was a major source of support."

"First, Westminster emphasizes the personal touch; mutual concern and respect are modeled in relationships among students, faculty, administrators, and staff. Second, Westminster encourages the development of leadership skills and a lifelong commitment to community service. Third, for students seeking to integrate faith and learning, Westminster nurtures generous, healthy and diverse expressions of spirituality."

"Westminster went above and beyond in preparing to get me where I am today. The professors gave me everything I needed to gain experience in writing and public speaking, which turned out to be the cornerstone of what I needed to succeed. They made sure all of the PR students were given the opportunities to accomplish their goals, and to this day I still use the valuable lessons I learned during my time at Westminster."

November Dreamers Recommend!
We used to have a LOT of November birthdays. I want to say it was like 20% of our very small staff seemed to have a birthday this month, which added a lot of cake and joy into one of our busiest seasons.
Nowadays we only have three birthdays in November, two folks from our "Downstairs" house brand team, Rachel and Stephanie, and our original king of the shipping department, Mr. Natosi.
One of my favourite things about Rachel is that she brings some of the most ace props when modelling socks. She's another one of the Dreamers with an almost supernatural ability to match and complement colours across an outfit and I end up clapping my hands gleefully when I see how she's put the socks I need to shoot to work!
• Neon Striped Acrylic OTKs •
• Vinyl Records Crew •
• Rainbow Net Fingerless Gloves •
Rachel's favourites are a regular favourite for a lot of us, and for good reason. She says:
My current favorite socks are the O Dreamy Stockings. They're warm, comfortable, and the yarns are always so beautiful. Plus they're easy to wear with lots of different outfits due to all of the colors contained in just one sock. They're always at the top of my OTK sock drawer.
I love that she paired the Shorty Scrunchable Warmers in Teal with these. The jewel tones of the Shorty Scrunchables is a perfect foil to the secret vividness of the dark marls of the O Dreamy in Nebula.
Stephanie knew exactly what her favourite socks were: slipper and house socks, the cosiest of them all! She says:
Most important criteria for a favorite sock: coziness. I can dig dressing up socks for daytime wear, but if it isn't soft, squishy, and ultimately made for lounging, it will sit at the bottom of my drawer. My favorites right now are the Lumberjack Fleece Knee Highs, but basically anything from Polar Feet is great. I used to think that color didn't factor into what socks I sported more, but based on what socks have the most wear, I suppose I like warm colors! Bonus if it is space dyed, marled, velvet, or tie dyed!
You can tell that the Lumberjack Fleece Knee Highs are a top fave because she's worn them in well. I love how extra cozy this fleece gets as it is washed, worn and loved.
At first, Mr. Natosi couldn't remember the name of his favourite socks, "the textured ones" he said, having the same problem most of us do when trying to remember the name of one of our over 1,000 styles. I had a guess that it was one of B.Ella's newer cotton larger-footed midcalves and I was right! Their casual dapperness totally matches his style.
I also had to make sure to grab a snap of the arm warmers he's wearing today, because I honestly can't picture Mr. Natosi without them. He's had his thumbs in almost every arm warmer style we carry!
• Acrylic Fingerless Gloves •
• Harajuku Arm Warmers •
• Polonova Velvet Wrist Warmers •
• Alpaca Cable Hand Warmers •
Cozy slipper socks, warm, layerable styles and arm warmers! Snuggle up, November birthday folks, it's going to be quite the winter and those favourite socks of yours will be keeping you warm!

Colours: Grey
Weather-wise, in the Portland area November stops being fall and starts being winter abruptly and wetly. The darkening skies of incoming winter storms mean grey is the perfect colour to focus on this month.
More often than not called "silver", "charcoal", "graphite", "anthracite" or "slate", grey is a wonderful neutral that stays surprisingly neutral (though some styles tend more blue or yellow). A mutable hue, it's greatly affected by what it is next to, like these O Chevrons (and an A Chevron) show for our Dream Stockings in Grey and in Charcoal.
Grey falls into about three categories: light, medium and dark, as you can see by how I sorted out my bins of examples.
Disclaimer time! I'm not trying to define grey. If you want some poem-like lists of names for shades of grey, both Wikipedia and the Color Sorting Wiki are kind of amazing resources. I've done my best to accurately represent these hues in relation to each other, so you can gather a good idea of what matches and what doesn't. There are a lot of greys from our suppliers, so I'm not going to clutter your monitor with all of them, just representative examples.
Dream Stockings and Dreamer Socks
We have a pretty lovely range of grey, if I say so myself! From light to dark, we've got 'em in lots of different fibers (including the Dreamer Acrylic Slouch Socks in Silver Grey that I forgot to add here)!
From left to right: O Woolies, Extraordinary Thigh Highs, Cotton Slouch Socks, N40s, Extraordinary Thigh Highs, Cotton Slouch Socks, N40s
Tending to the darker side of grey, with Graphites and Charcoals, B.Ella does have some interesting lighter shades as well in a few styles.
From left to right: Gregorio Wool Bootsocks, Sergei Recycled Cotton No Shows, Zena Knee Sock, Bess Cashmere Slouch Rib Knee Sock, Ginger Ribbed Knee High, Pantera Jersey Dress Midcalf, Kayla Stripe Trouser Sock, Erika Microfiber Tights
Just a single shade, really, Anthracite is the fanciest-named grey we carry.
From left to right: Cotton Overknee, Ribbed Wool OTK
EG Smith
Just two shades of grey here, but both medium and dark greys covered nicely!
From left to right: Heather Socklings, Heather Bobby Socklings
Foot Traffic
Tending towards marled, Foot Traffic offers some nice greys that go a bit bluer in the microfiber versions.
From left to right: Signature Cotton Tights, Textured Cable Acrylic OTK, Cotton Rag Bootsock, Microfiber Stirrup Legging, Signature Cotton Tights, Opaque Nylon Trouser Sock, Fleece Lined Knee High, Super-Long Ribbed Leg Warmer
From light silvery grey to dark Night Grey, Tabbisocks offers a lovely range of greys across several fibers.
From left to right: Crochet Lover OTK, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Basic Tabi Socks, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Cotton Tabi OTK, Crochet Look Tights, Harajuku Arm Warmers, Harajuku Scrunchy Socks
Bottom row: Color Tights in Silver Grey, Color Tights in Dark Grey
Most of the various greys that are only represented by one or two styles in other brands fall in the medium to medium-darker grey range. I'm just showing some good representative examples below.
From top to bottom: MP Cotton Lined Wool Tights, High Waist Crop Legging, Leaf Pattern Fleece Arm Warmers
Grey falls into some pretty simple categories: light, medium, dark and tending to yellow or blue. Check out the breakdowns after the jump!

Leg warmers, Scrunchable & Ribbed
Okay, for real now, it's leg warmer season. My ankles are cold and after a couple of days of complaining about it I remembered all the leg warmers I have exactly for this season. I think most folks don't consider leg warmers as a dated fashion accessory any more, they're just a perfect way to stop drafts between your shoe and pants, or to add another layer over leggings or under boots.
How much leg warmer you want is going to vary though. How much scrunch can you handle? Do you need 'em to go up as high as they can for extra cold mornings? Are they going over pants or bare legs and tights? Well, we have two styles that each have two coverage levels that might just be exactly what you're looking for.
Let's look at the two main styles and then we can compare!
Long Cuffable Warmers
Though originally only available in a 33 inch length, the Long Cuffable Scrunchable Leg Warmers now come in a shorter version for folks who just don't need that much leg warmer. The Shorty Scrunchable Warmers, a mere 20 inches long, are also available in bolder, more jewel-toned colours. Both are made in the classic cotton blend most of our Dream Stocking styles are, which is great for folks who want warmth without fuzzy halos.
With a stretch of 21 inches at the "top" cuff, the longer version is good option for slimmer thighs that would like their leg warmers to stay up. The shorties have a 22 inch stretch throughout and are great for folks with shorter inseams who just don't want that much legwarmer and fuller calves that want a leg warmer without all the extra length. They also make a great sleeve-style arm warmer!
Ribbed Knit Leg Warmers
A Foot Traffic classic, they come in the 40 inch Super Long Ribbed Leg Warmers and the shorter Ribbed Knit Leg Warmers, which are 20 inches long. Fuzzy in texture, they're 70% acrylic, which means they dry fast, so they're awesome in snowy or rainy weather. A couple of the colours are available in both lengths, but the long version has some new, ultra-delicious options that we're in love with.
The Super Long Ribbed have one cuff that is tighter, stretching to only 25 inches (24 for the Charcoal), the body and cuff at the other end stretch to 30 inches! The shorter version have less stretch, with 20 inches at the tighter cuff, 27 inches at the other cuff and 29 inches in the body of the leg warmer.
Now, let's compare!
Or, if I may, let's see how they stack up against each other. . .
Both styles, as you may have noticed from my descriptions, have a tighter cuff and a looser cuff. The tighter cuff is supposed to be the "top", and is tighter because of the thin bands of elastic threaded through the top row of stitches.
The "bottom" cuff is just the finished, ruffly end of the legwarmer itself, so it has practically the same stretch as the rest of the warmer—uninhibited by elastic's rules, man.
And you too can reject what's supposed to be up or down and wear them as you will! Most ankles are narrower than calves and thighs, so it works out well to have the less stretchy bit down there. Keep in mind, though, that the stretchier end has little stay-up power and will need to be paired with a sock garter like the Simply Adjustables to stay up through your day.
Texture-wise, the ribbed knit legwarmers are fuzzy, wuzzy and (for some folks) a little itchy when worn against thin tights or bare skin. Due to their killer stretch, that works out well, as they are AMAZING over pants and a lot of legs find they will go even over jeans.
The Scrunchables are a thinner cotton and a little snugger. So they have a sleeker look, both in texture and how they fit against and over you. I personally find them less than ideal to go over trousers, but they are perfect over tights and leggings.
So, two different leg warmers that are also very similar. Between them, four singular styles to select from to keep those ankles draft-free and to add another layer of warmth as we snowball into winter!

Happy Halloween!
Halloween might be one of our favourite times of year here at Sock Dreams. It's one of the reasons why our Halloween category is easy to find year-round. Normally by now on the Sock Journal I'd have talked at least once about costumes and given you ideas, but all of you are clearly on top of it this year! We've seen so many cool combos of styles go out this month, you all are really making our season.
Since this year was full of some fabulously Halloween-riffic new styles, let's just revel in a bit of Halloween trend goodness on this day o' spooky and costumes. Some are out of stock at the moment (due to this being the season they're most in demand) but, if you're anything like a lot of us Dreamers, the visual themes of Halloween aren't limited to one month of the year, so we're sure you'll find a use even in spring time for . . .
Cats! Like that familiar familiar, the black cat,
• Black Cat Slipper Socks •
• Black Cat Tights •
• Black Kitty Crew •
• Cat Tights •
Or the sideways-talking Cheshire cat.
• M Stripes •
• Cheshire Cat Striped Tights •
• Purple Knees •
Even more classic are movie monsters!
• Mummy Crew •
• Vampire Kiss Knee High •
• Zombie vs. Werewolf Midcalf •
• Bride of Frankenstein Knee High •
And of course there's just the general spookiness of spiders, bats and eyeballs.
• Bats out Knee Socks •
• Micro Net Black Widow Tights •
• Creepy Eyeball Knee High •
Okay, I'm going to close with a real nerdy thing. I noticed this year that black and orange aren't the hot Halloween colours. Both in what people are buying and what I've seen out and about. So I made some pretty ridiculous graphs of our two big Halloween brands because I know y'all are nerds too.
In Leg Avenue striped styles, the clear winner is Black & White. Then comes Black & Purple, with Rainbow and Black & Red about tied! The predominance of Pink & Purple stripes purchased from Leg Avenue is what prompted their addition to this pumpkin pie chart. A lot of sneaky Cheshire Cats about this year!
Now, in Dream Stockings and Dreamer Socks, we see more folks getting the basics they need to finish off a more complex look. Stripes aren't as stratospheric a seller. Unless you're rainbows, that is! Between the various Radiant and Harvest Rainbows, plus the Rainbow Dreams, you folks are representing all the colours! Classic Black & Orange is much higher on the list for Dream Stockings. We are embarrassed to admit how long it took us to add Black as an option in the Orange Knees, but dang we're glad we did!
Remember, seeing how you use our socks in your costumes gives us undead creatures of the night life! Tag us on Tumbr, share with us on Facebook, give us a virtual trick-or-treat of how awesome you all are. ♥
Have a happy Halloween and may your evening's celebrations be bountiful!

October Dreamers Recommend!
October! A time of magic and mystery and cooling weather. There's no better month for the original Dreamer, Niq, to be born! The founder and President of Sock Dreams, she's probably got the hardest time of all of us trying to pick a favourite sock to recommend to you all this month.
A long time ago, though, when she was the one writing the Sock Journal, Niq posted a sock of the day (or other sort of little updates). So she's had her toes in just about every style we carry and have carried! That's a lot of sock memory that can cloud up what one's current fave style is.
To buy her some time, let's look at some old favourites from Niq's daily sock postings that we still carry. Because oldies are goodies and I'm forever thankful that not all socks are seasonal!
In this post from 2003, Niq layers the Ribbed Knit Leg Warmers with the Fuzzy Toe Socks. You can see that the purple has changed some, but her love of toe socks hasn't!
Nor has her love of layering socks! Nowadays I'll often see her with a floral crew over an OTK (regularly Cronert), but she'll still often pair scrunch with smooth, like in this post from 2005:
Sure, we don't have that colourway in Boy's Socks any longer, but the style thrives on! That also goes for the EG Smith Original Bootsocks, which may have gone away for a while but are once again a staple of Niq's sock drawers.
Speaking of which, here's a newer fave that we first saw in 2010, the O Rayons!
And, it's another one of our delicious Dream Stockings that Niq picked for her current fave! Here's what she says:
Narrowing my favorite socks down to a single pair was not an easy task for me but the Super Dreamy won out because they're like a security blanket for my legs and feet, comforting all the way to my soles. I love them for traveling, especially during the chillier months, because they layer well and can turn a tank top or t-shirt into a perfect pair of pajamas that can also double as a great base for my daywear.
Most truthfully, her current favourite are a pair of Cronert that aren't live yet. But that's par for the course, Cronert's deliciously soft cotton and lovely patterns are Niq's kryptonite and have been for a long time. The Elliot Anklet is another favourite, with the sweet scalloped cuff and florals. One more that she loves and misses (and we hope is something we can restock soon!) are the Tentacle Boot Socks, made specially for us by Raygun Robyn.
So, a happy birthday month to the reason you're here shopping and we're here socking (and to all you other October babies)!

The Chocolate and More Tower was larger than I expected and nicely packaged. I have ordered Towers from other companies and when I saw them I was embarrassed. They were small and contained very little. I will certainly order from The Wine Country again. Thank you also for the free shipping. FREE SHIPPING on items always helps me make up my mind. A great value and free shipping too, how can you lose!

My family received this gift tower as a Christmas gift. The variety of items is good and many of the treats are delicious. The boxes of the tower have packaged treats inside each box, but aside from a bag of cookies, none of the packages have the name of the contents or the ingredients on the outside of the package. A "master" item/ingredients list is included, but it's not helpful if you have to open the bags and then try to figure out which item name best matches the contents. Also, we have a tree nut allergy in our family and knowing exactly what's in a bag and not having to match it to a separate list would be better (and safer). At the very least, each gold bag should have a label citing the name of the product inside, so that it could be easily looked up on the enclosed list.Many sweets are included in this tower and balancing it with some savory items would be nice. Lastly, many of the ingredients for the items in this tower include high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, artificial flavors, and food coloring. These are not items anyone should be eating and for the price of these towers, the ingredients should be of better quality. I would not order these towers because there are healthier, better quality products on the market.

Your Company
By Marty
from White Plains, NY
have dealt with Wine Country for many years and each time I swear never to use you again. It is always so difficult to place an order and get it right. This year was an all time low. When I called before Thanksgiving the rep couldn't really read English. Then I got someone who did and took my order for several items. When I received your several confirmations My gift cards were basically all wrong and had to be corrected. Then when I changed the delivery dates I got confirmations with the original date and then when I corrected this I received confirmations that the gifts were shipped but with the original date. This then had to be corrected. Finally at least four of my gifts were duplicated. Perhaps all were. At this point I am not sure everyone on my gift list got their gift. Your company is one of the most inefficient companies that I have ever dealt with and this time I am going to keep my vow not to return to you ever.
perfect gift

Biden makes it official with second term swearing-in
Joe Biden will remain vice president for another four years, making his second term official Sunday with a swearing-in ceremony at his official residence in Northwest Washington.
Standing in the foyer of his home on the campus of the Naval Observatory, Biden was sworn in under a painting by American artist N.C. Wyeth of President Lincoln's second inaugural - an event remembered for the 16th president's solemn, somber address.
That was hardly the mood Sunday at the Naval Observatory, where Biden's extended family and a few Cabinet officials gathered to watch the vice president take his constitutional oath. His son Beau - Delaware's attorney general - was there, as were his other children, Hunter and Ashley, and a smattering of Biden grandchildren.
He placed his hand on the massive, 5-inch-thick Biden family Bible, held by his wife Jill, and repeated the oath offered by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, whom Biden personally selected to administer his swearing-in.
Sotomayor, appointed by President Barack Obama to the Supreme Court in 2009, is the first Hispanic justice to administer a presidential or vice presidential oath of office. She's the fourth woman to take on those duties -- the first was federal Judge Sarah T. Hughes, who swore in Lyndon B. Johnson aboard Air Force One following John F. Kennedy's assassination in 1963. Supreme Court Justices Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsberg have both sworn in vice presidents.
"It's an incredible honor to have Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor swear me in," Biden said is a statement. "I believed strongly that she would make a great Justice, and it was one of the greatest pleasures of my career to be involved in her selection to the Court.
"I'm happy for the chance to be sworn in by a friend - and someone I know will continue to do great things," he added.
After the oath was complete, he quickly acknowledged the crowd and thanked Sotomayor.
"I thank you very, very, very much for sharing this morning with Jill and me. Madame Justice, it's been an honor," he said, before rushing off to join Obama at a wreath-laying at Arlington National Cemetery.
The vice president's approval rating stands at 59%, with 38% saying they disapprove of the job he is doing, according to the latest CNN/Time/ORC poll released last week. Biden's approval rating is up five points from last month. Besides leading the task force on curbing gun violence, Biden also had a high profile role, along with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, in striking a deal that temporarily averted the country going over the fiscal cliff.

There are two major kinds of renal malignancies: renal cell carcinoma arises in the renal cortex and comprises 80-85% of total kidney cancers, and transitional cell carcinomas, which arise in the renal pelvis and represent the remainder of cases. The incidence of kidney and renal pelvis malignancies has increased over the past three decades, although they still only account for about 2% of all cancers.
Feb 24, 2010 - Serum cell-free DNA integrity may serve as a predictive marker for the diagnosis and detection of clear renal cell carcinoma, according to a study in the February issue of Urology.

Love the style!
I love the style of this cardigan because it is so different from anything else I have. It is very warm. I have received lots of complements. The only drawback is that the arms are tight. Not thrilled about this since the overall fit of the cardigan is open and loose. They weren't cut in proportion to how the rest of the garment was made.

The role of chemotherapy in soft tissue sarcoma remains controversial. Multiple randomized trials have shown no benefit in the addition of chemotherapy to surgery and radiation therapy (RT). High grade sarcomas have a greater propensity for dissemination. The present prospective study examines the ability of systemic therapy to address this subset of patients with a higher likelihood of metastasis at presentation.
Materials and Methods:
Apr 30, 2010 - Treating high-risk soft tissue sarcoma by applying heat to the tumor area during conventional chemotherapy may prevent local progression and improve patient survival better than chemotherapy alone, according to a study published online April 29 in The Lancet Oncology.

In the wake of 9/11, author Stephen Johnson wrote in Wired that "density kills" and advocated turning to the decentralized vision of Frank Lloyd Wright's 1939 Broadacre City as a way of protecting Americans in the future. As it turns out, he got it backwards: Density saves lives. The contemporary affinity for higher-density, mixed-use, walkable places in cities and suburbs alike arguably represents the single most significant contribution to public health — for those who can afford them — since World War II.

Great giveaway! I saw that she has several colors of the Hello Pilgrims Jewels print on sale, and I *love* that print, so if I'm being practical, that's what I want to buy. If funds weren't an issue (if I could convince somebody to get it for me as a gift!) I would love to join the stash stack club.
ReplyDeleteI love the personal service Brenda provides. I needed a rainbow of patterned fabrics so I ordered 4 fat eighth bundles. I asked her on Twitter for her to choose me a good rainbow selection instead of the usual random selection. She picked out a fab range and I only had to substitute a few due to value. Great and fast service!
ReplyDeleteI subscribed to the Pink Castle Fabrics Stah Stack Club and the fabric bundles they send out every month are really gorgeous! And, what I really value, Brenda packs her shipments that I get them customs cleared delivered to my door, that's really great for international orders.
I'd love to win these bundles. Thanks for the chance!
I have participated int he Stash Stak but unfortioatly had to quit since $4 was needed else where :(
ReplyDeleteWow! What wonderful fabric! The modern quilt movement has opened my eyes to to the virtues of solids and I appreciate posts that feature them. I looked around Pink Castle. I was captivated by a gray fabric called "Junk Drawer in the Sky" -intriguing name and great fabric! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteJust placed my first order with Link Castle Fabrics recently and am now in love! Love these fat quarter selections
ReplyDeleteA trip to the Pink Castle website was such a treat. When my eyes fell upon the "Sketch Chevron Ziggy" series, I knew it was the one I would mention in my post as my favorite. Loved the vibrant colors and my idea wheels have started turning. At 49 I'm new to quilting but I have a great teacher...my 80 yr. old mom and we are having a blast. Thank you for the opportunity to have a chance at the blue and green giveaway. It would be a great addition to our stash. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at their Stash Club last week thinking about joining it... I think I just might do that. I am really trying to create a "stash" as honestly I don't have much of one. I tend to buy very specific to the projects I am working on, but then I can't play around much... And I really want to start doing that.
Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.
I apologize for the current comment settings that require a registered user account. They are the only way that I don't get tons of gross spam. I'm hoping Blogger will make a way where people who are not registered users, but would like to leave a comment can do so. Please, Blogger! In the mean time, thanks for your patience.
I also love to respond to questions. If you are a no-reply blogger, please leave an email address so I can get back to you. Or you can email me directly: amy @ diaryofaquilter.com. Thanks!
