- How to Read a Study Record
Brain metastases occur when cancer cells from the initial tumour site (for example, lung or breast) spread to the brain. This develops in approximately 10% - 30% of adults with cancer. They can produce different complaints related to their effect on brain functioning, decrease in a person's ability to carry on with their usual activities, a reduction in the quality of life and shortened life expectancy.
The standard treatment particularly for people with more than one brain metastasis consists of palliative radiation therapy to the brain and steroids. Steroids (such as Decadron or Dexamethasone) are medication used to reduce swelling around the tumour, and thus symptoms improve. Steroids could be very helpful but have a number of potential side effects, particularly if used for longer periods of time. There is no standard dose of Decadron used in treating brain metastases patients. The most commonly dose used is 4 mg four times/day.
This study will assess if lower doses of Decadron - 8 mg every morning for symptomatic patients and 4 mg every morning for asymptomatic patients - are effective in maintaining symptom control in patients with brain metastases, without neurological deterioration that necessitates the patient to go back or to a higher dose at any time. This information will help also in understanding how to decrease the side effects associated with higher doses of steroids in people with your condition.

Myasthenia Gravis
What is bulbar myasthenia? how is it differed from the plain myasthenia? if there is a plain myasthenia.
Patients with myasthenia gravis develop a range of symptoms. Some have only weakness of eye muscles (ocular myasthenia). Others have weakness only (or much more severely) of bulbar muscles. This term refers to weakness of muscles supplied by an area of the brain called the brain stem (or bulb). These muscles are those of the throat and face. Patients have speaking and swallowing difficulties.
At present it is not known why some patients have particular involvement of these muscles.

Judith Viorst's The Tenth Good Thing About Barney
Illustrated by Erik Blegvad
Children's book review by Steve Barancik
Ages 4-8
Sometimes things just are what they are. They have to be accepted. Parents might be able to make things a little better, but they can't make things all better.
Written in the first person in simple, childlike prose, this is a little boy's account of his cat's death and the mourning that followed.
And with mourning, learning.
After Barney's death, Mom has a hug for her upset son. When that isn't enough, she offers a funeral.
She suggests her son think of ten good things about Barney to say at the ceremony.
She's giving him something to do, and isn't that what children need at a time like this?
Dad digs a grave. A little friend attends from next door. But the grieving boy is only able to think of nine good things about Barney. (For instance, that he only once ate a bird.)
They all sing a song and head inside for lunch.
Life goes on. Mom and Dad return to their own business.
But it's not over for the boy. He remains upset and snaps at his little friend for saying Barney is in heaven.
Barney is in the ground, the boy says. He isn't going to take comfort by deluding himself, and his parents - to their credit - don't encourage him to.
Dad does invite his son to join him in the garden, where they consider how Barney's body will return to the earth and help things grow.
The boy takes some comfort from this. He decides that this is the tenth good thing about Barney.
I appreciate Viorst's proportionality. She doesn't try to turn something sad into something happy, nor does she depict parents overindulging their son as if the world just came to an end.
If the death of a cat is treated like the worst thing that could happen, what then when a beloved grandparent dies, or - God forbid - a parent or sibling?
Blegvad's black and white sketches are the perfect, mood-appropriate accompaniment for Viorst's text, but with two notable touches of whimsy.
Judith Viorst has written many children's classics. This one is still in print 38 years after its initial publication.
Do your children have pets? They won't last forever. That's why The Tenth Good Thing About Barney is a good book to keep around.

Ozuna already making history with Marlins
MIAMI -- In the big leagues for only a month, Marcell Ozuna is already making a historical presence for the Marlins.
The 22-year-old right fielder is riding a 14-game hitting streak after his infield single in the fourth inning on Wednesday -- one of only three hits the Marlins had in a 3-1 loss to the Rays.
Ozuna's streak is the longest active stretch in the Majors and the most by a Marlins player this year. It's also tied for the third longest streak by a Marlins' rookie.
Edgar Renteria holds the club's rookie mark at 22, set in 1996. Chuck Carr is second at 15 games (1993), and Chris Coghlan (2009) and Renteria (1996) also had strings of 14 games.
"He's brought that energy every day," manager Mike Redmond said. "He's having fun. He appreciates the opportunity he has to be here in the big leagues, and he wants to stay. To see that energy and to see a guy just throwing it all out there every single night is fun."
Ozuna's hitting is obviously getting attention. But so is his hustle, which was evident in Tuesday's 7-6 loss at Tampa Bay.
On Desmond Jennings' walk-off single in the ninth inning, Ozuna played hard until the end. He had no chance of throwing out Kelly Johnson, who scored from second. But Ozuna still charged to the ball and attempted a desperation throw home.
"You don't know if maybe he falls down," Ozuna said.
On the bases in the eighth inning, Ozuna showed aggressiveness, which set up the go-ahead run.
"I'm trying to get make the pitcher [concentrate on me] and throw a lot of balls, and try to get more people on base," he said.
Redmond has Ozuna batting cleanup, and he projects to be a major piece in Miami's building process.
"I want guys to throw it all out there," Redmond said. "That's what we talked about when we talked this winter about bringing guys in to change the culture. Those are the kind of players I want. I want guys that play hard the entire game."

A petition to take Northgate area schools from the Mt. Diablo school district and merge them with Walnut Creek and Acalanes school districts has fallen short of the required number of signatures.
Ruth Carver and other Northgate High School parents fed up with Mt. Diablo school district in January turned in close to 3,000 signatures to the Contra Costa County Office of Education.
The group, then called Northgate Parents for Transfer, gathered signatures from voters in the Walnut Creek School District and need at least 10 percent of 29,321 to sign before county school officials would hold a hearing.
However, the petition turned into the county Office of Education had duplicate signatures and some from outside that district, said Peggy Marshburn, office of education spokeswoman. Marshburn said the group needs more than 400 additional names to qualify for a hearing.
Carver said she and her supporters will head out to gather more signatures this week.
"We're already organizing," Carver said.
Carver is trying to change district boundaries so that the area within the city of Walnut Creek and inside the boundaries of Bancroft, Valle Verde and Walnut Acres elementary schools be placed under the authority of Walnut Creek and Acalanes Union High school districts.
If successful, about 5,000 students would be shifted from Mt. Diablo schools to these two neighboring districts.

A Frenchman has insisted on his innocence as he appealed his conviction for murdering an Australian student who was beaten, strangled and dumped in a car park outside Paris.
Brazilian-born Adriano Araujo Da Silva, 37, was found guilty and sentenced to 30 years in prison in January last year for the murder 11 years earlier of Jeanette O'Keefe, 28, from Melbourne.
O'Keefe's body was found rolled up in a sleeping bag in a car park in the Paris suburb of Les Mureaux on January 2, 2001 - three days after a series of events left her alone and without a bed for the night on New Year's Eve.
''I am innocent, I must be acquitted,'' Araujo Da Silva told the court as his appeal began on Tuesday in the Paris suburb of Nanterre. A ruling is expected on Thursday.
Araujo Da Silva had confessed to the crime twice before retracting his testimony, saying he had been pressured by police. He said he took O'Keefe home and argued with her, but insisted she left unharmed.
O'Keefe's four brothers and sisters, who are civil plaintiffs, were in court.
''We feel sick to the stomach to have to go through this again but we do it for Jeanette,'' her sister Denise said. ''Even after he killed my sister, he still has lied. I think he'll make up any story that he thinks will get him out of jail.''
Araujo Da Silva said he had met O'Keefe on the Champs Elysees on New Year's Eve and taken her to his home in Les Mureaux, where her body was found three days later.
French investigators found male DNA under her fingernails, but it was eight years before they found a match, when Araujo Da Silva was arrested for theft.


text: Both chambers of Congress are moving quickly to consider legislation that will effect a long-overdue reauthorization of FAA funding for several years. This time, Senate Commerce Committee chairman Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) is touting the FAA Air Transportation, Modernization and Safety Improvement Act (S. 223) as the first jobs bill of the 112th Congress. Nearly identical to multi-year FAA legislation that the Senate passed 93-0 early last year, it resurrects a prohibition on Stage I and Stage II turbojets weighing 75,000 pounds or less. In the House, Rep. John Mica (R-Fla.), new chairman of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, has scheduled two hearings next week on new FAA legislation. When Republicans took control of the House this year, Mica called FAA reauthorization a top priority. He said a long-term reauthorization bill will result in job creation and reform and streamline FAA programs and processes. Meanwhile, 116 members of the House have signed a letter saying user fees would be bad for general aviation.

Boys' Fashion Trends 2010
Boys' fashion has had a lot of catching up to do with the plethora options that are available for our little girls, but in the last couple of years we've seen the offerings broaden and really come into their own. No longer are we bound to pastel blues and puppies! Really, a lot of what we're seeing lately is what we're loving about girls fashion these days- heavily vintage influenced style with a modern twist. Most importantly the trends we're highlighting here are ones that let boys be boys, without sacrificing style.
Our top 5 boys fashion trends of 2010
Patterned snap and button down shirts with contrasting yolk
We've seen these popping up EVERYWHERE! Every label seems to have their own take on this classic look for boys. The contrasting yolk lends funky style to an otherwise clean cut shirt. Patterns like diamonds, bold polka dots, and tonal stripes are the order of the day, with patch pockets and snaps also make the rounds for easy on and off.
Stylish headgear- Snowboarder hats and fedoras
The number of options for headwear for men has expanded significantly over the past few years, and in turn has trickled down into boys' fashion as well. We're seeing a lot of military inspired hats, classic fedoras, and skater style snowboarder hats. As we all know boys have much fewer options for accessorizing than girls, so we have to make each one count!
Our favs
Snowboarder lid by Eli's Lids
Harbor Tweed Newsboy by Eden's Bouquet
Fedora by Axel and Hudson
Varsity Jackets and Bombers
Another great throwback to the timeless look that embodies boys and all the rough and tumble madness that they carry with them every day. Snaps, zippers, leather accents, patches- they offer endless opportunities for unique embellishments that give each piece as much individual personality as the boys who wear them.
They come in many styles and shapes and sizes, and they are everywhere! Taking inspiration from the classic Nike and Converse hi-top style from years past, this new breed of sneakers is multiplying in new varieties every day. Like hats, the right pair of sneakers can add some whimsy to a formal outfit that takes itself too seriously, fit right in with a skater style outfit, or simply be a staple of you boys' wardrobe.
Our favs
Cesario Black Sneaker by Creative Recreation
Command Hi Top Sneaker by Children's Place
Coronado Hi Top by Keen
Quality Denim- Rolled Cuffs
Being a consummate denim addict, I am loving the selection available for boys these days. As boys' fashion lines have expanded to cover more and more different styles, you're able to get denim the way you want it. Rolled cuffs are particularly popular lately as the vintage revival continues to grow in strength and variety.
Greaser Jeans by Knuckleheads
5 Pocket jeans by Scotch & Soda
Original Fit Selvage Jeans by GAP
What are your favorite trends? Which ones can't you stand?

IT'S been a man's world in the Sydney to Hobart for the past 68 years but the winds of change are roaring in faster than a southerly buster for this year's race.
For the first time in the long history of the famous Australian ocean classic, female sailors will be aboard all three fancies for the line honours win.
And for the first time one yacht will carry almost an entire watch of women with Grant Wharington's Wild Thing crew boasting a record six female sailors.
Triple Olympian and former round the world sailor Carolijn Brouwer from The Netherlands is the latest recruit to Wharington's team who are considered a dark horse for the fastest time honours in the 628 nautical mile race.
"It feels like a fantastic boat and I can't wait to do the race," said Brouwer who sailed from Newcastle to Sydney aboard the supermaxi as part of a meet-and-greet with the team this week.
Brouwer, the only female to race against men's teams in the Tornado class at the Beijing Olympics, has plenty of offshore sailing experience and was part of the all-female crew which raced in the Volvo round the world race in 2001/2002.
But the 2012 race to Tasmania will be her first Rolex Sydney to Hobart.
In contrast physiotherapist Sue Crafer is the most experienced female campaigner aboard Wild Thing with the 2012 race her 13th trek to Hobart.
"Lucky I'm not superstitious," she laughed.
"I just consider this one the race between 12 and 14."
Joining the pair will be Kelly Mathews, Karen Meyer, bowman Sophie Ciszek and navigator Jess Sweeney, who did onshore navigation and weather for the Camper round the world campaign.
"I don't care if they are male or female. If you are a good sailor you are a good sailor," said Wharington of his mixed crew.
Wharington has long been a supporter of women on the water with Crafer and Ciszek regular members of his crew and both racing to Hobart with him in the past.
Women have been part of the Sydney to Hobart since 1946, just a year after the inaugural event where nine yachts set sail for Hobart.
Both Jane Tate, on a little yacht called Active, and Dagmar O'Brien, on Connella, set sail but only Tate completed the race in 1947.
The trophy awarded to the first female skipper to complete the Sydney to Hobart each year is dedicated to and named after Tate.
This year world renown navigator and mother of two Adrienne Cahalan will be aboard Wild Oats as it attempts to win a sixth line honours crown and trimmer Vanessa Dudley will be aboard Ragamuffin Loyal, being skipper south by 85-year-old Syd Fischer .
Gail Harland , the second most capped woman in the Hobart, will embark on her 18th race to Tasmania on the Sydney yacht Patrice with Mary Holley racing south for the 16th time with husband Jim on their yacht Aurora.
There are also numerous other women in key positions on yachts heading to Hobart this year.

In 1940, Bartók and his wife, Ditta, moved to New York City for good. Among the pieces Bartók composed in the US were the Sonata for Solo Violin—Yehudi Menuhin premiered it at Carnegie Hall—and his most popular work, the Concerto for Orchestra.
Bartók returned to Carnegie Hall in 1943; his performances with Ditta, an accomplished pianist, and the New York Philharmonic were his last. He spent the brief remainder of his life in an apartment just two blocks from Carnegie Hall. He died on September 26, 1945, at West Side Hospital.
Bartók kept composing until only days before his death, but left two works unfinished. Although he did little more than begin to sketch out his viola concerto, his third piano concerto (which he was writing for his wife) was almost complete, requiring only a few minor additions by his former student, Tíbor Sérly.
On February 26, 1946, the Philadelphia Orchestra and conductor Eugene Ormandy presented the New York Premiere of that final, posthumously completed concerto at Carnegie Hall, with Bartók's friend György Sándor as soloist.

I don't know who DJ Splash is but this isnt bad at all. It's a shame how barren this website has gotten in the feedback and review department. Nobody ever takes the time to write something.
It's very upbeat and happy sounding and has a nice melody. I do prefer more ambient/trance music to this, but it doesn't mean i don't ever like songs of these kind. It just depends the mood i'm in.
A few of my songs are upbeat, similar to this one, but not recently, so it was nice to listen to this and hear a contrast in what i've been making lately. It actually reminded me of what I used to try to aspire to create when I first started on newgrounds years ago.
Thanks for the feedback :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I really do love how well-mastered the pads & the plucked synths sound, the whole track overall sounds pretty damn good. Well done bro :D
Thank you sir :D

Sebastian Vettel was back on top form in Korea to win the constructors' title for Red Bull, ahead of a thrilling battle for second between Lewis Hamilton and Mark Webber.

It was back to business-as-usual at the front of the Korean Grand Prix, with Sebastian Vettel taking the lead on the first lap and then slowly cruising away from the rest of the field on his way to his tenth Grand Prix victory of the 2011 season, which also helped to deliver the constructors title to Red Bull Racing with Mark Webber also finishing on the podium.
The convincing lead meant Vettel was well in front of a tense and thrilling battle over second place between his team mate Webber and McLaren's Lewis Hamilton, who were both comfortably ahead of Jenson Button after the Japanese Grand Prix winner had a curiously underpowered but eventually quiet run to fourth place after a worrying start.
The race winner was decided through the first half dozen laps: Hamilton got a decent start on the clean side of the track but Vettel also got away well and was immediately challenging for the lead into turn 1. Hamilton held on but looked on the backfoot, and when they exited the hairpin and headed down to turn 4 the writing was on the wall - a dab of KERS and there was nothing Hamilton could do to stop the Red Bull getting past on the inside line.
Behind them, Jenson Button had lost out badly after a flying Felipe Massa slipstreamed behind Mark Webber to overtake both the McLaren and Red Bull through the hairpin. Button fought back and seemed to be back in front, but then out-braked himself into turn four which not only allowed Massa to complete his pass but also enabled Mark Webber and Fernando Alonso to get by the McLaren as well and push Button down to sixth place.
Perhaps due to the overcast conditions that deposited a light shower on the track in the early laps, neither McLaren seemed to be showing anything like the superior pace they had demonstrated in practice and qualifying. Hamilton was unable to do anything about Vettel slowing pulling away in front, while Button had to rely on an early pit stop strategy to allow him to 'undercut' the Ferraris and return to the track in front of them both after their own stops, back up in fourth place.
The leaders had all pitted by lap 17 when Vitaly Petrov totally missed his braking going into the hairpin and crashed into the rear-right of Michael Schumacher who had been minding his own business making the turn. Schumacher suffered extensive damage and was out on the spot; Petrov managed to take his crumpled Lotus-Renault to the pits, but the team diagnosed it as a severe case of scrappage and he too was out of the race.
The amount of debris strewn over the road at turn 3 required a safety car which closed up the field, but Vettel had no problems at the restart on lap 21 and set about building his lead up all over again. Even the weather was being kind to the race leader now, the skies clearing and the sun breaking through to lessen the chance of any unpredictable track conditions catching him out on his way to the chequered flag.
But while the race win was signed and sealed from early on, that was anything but the case for second and third which turned into an epic battle between Hamilton and Webber. Webber's pace was surprisingly good even on the harder tyres and he was rarely out of the DRS activation zone behind Hamilton, but he was never quite able to capitalise on his advantage when he needed to: at the critical moments, Hamilton simply had superior traction out of the key corners that gave him enough of a gap to take the ideal blocking line through the next few turns that Webber hoped to use to jump him.
Lap after lap this went on, but Webber's best opportunities to claim second position came in the laps immediately after they both pitted on lap 34, and then later at the end of lap 48 when Hamilton came up on the slow traffic of a Lotus. That gave Webber the chance to briefly take the lead, only for Hamilton to then get the advantage of the DRS activation zone to retake the position into the hairpin. It was all breathless stuff and one of the best on-track battles of the season with two perfectly matched drivers and cars giving it their all lap after lap.
Button had earlier very nearly jumped Webber at the restart on lap 21 with a daring line around the outside of turn 4 before he had to yield. Button then lost touch with the Hamilton/Webber battle but closed up again in the final stint and was ready to pounce if the drivers ahead fell over each other. Button himself came under pressure from behind from Fernando Alonso in the final laps, who continued to press hard despite at one point radioing in to the pit crew "I give up!" - as if the two-time world champion would ever seriously do such a thing, let alone broadcast it.
Alonso's race had been compromised when he emerged from his first pit stop on lap 16 behind team mate Felipe Massa, and the two Ferraris were then bottled up in turn by Nico Rosberg who had jumped them both during the pit stops despite having a side-by-side drag race down pit road with Jenson Button two laps earlier. Rosberg had won the battle but then slipped wide at the exit allowing Button past; but in doing do that gave Rosberg the advantage of the DRS activation line and the Mercedes blasted past the McLaren down the straight. Button had the pace to stay with him, and next time through it was Jenson's turn to apply the pressure and get past Nico for the position - this time for good.
Rosberg continued to lead the two Ferraris until he locked up badly into the hairpin on lap 27 and gave them both a chance to get past, Alonso nearly pulling off the double on Massa at the same time. When that didn't quite work out, Alonso instead switched to plan B and stayed out on this second set of tyres longer than anyone else, making the tyres work admirably while setting fastest laps until he finally pitted on lap 37. By then he was able to exit comfortably in front of Massa at last and free himself up to make that late-race charge up to Button's rear wing. That was as good as Alonso could do, and he had to settle for fifth with Massa in sixth place.
Rosberg had been looking set to take seventh place despite his race strategy being compromised by that lock-up on lap 27 which flat-spotted his tyres and required him to make an earlier-than-expected pit stop that dropped him as far down as 14th. But Rosberg lost the position to Jamie Alguersuari on the last lap and then crawled to a halt immediately after the chequered flag, seemingly suffering the same extreme fuel marginality that Button had done at the end of last week's race at Suzuka.
Alguersuari's Toro Rosso team mate Sebastien Buemi finished in ninth place confirming the team's strong race pace after a disappointing qualifying showing. Paul Di Resta edged his Force India team mate Adrian Sutil for the final championship point in tenth place.
Other than Schumacher and Petrov, the only other retirement of the afternoon was Pastor Maldonado who was wheeled back into the Williams garage after 31 laps shortly after having received a drive-thru penalty for taking the wrong line into the pits on his first scheduled stop. However, the team will have been buoyed by a solid showing from Rubens Barrichello, who bounced back to finish in 12th place after a bad qualifying that saw him fail to get through Q1.
Kamui Kobayashi was once again one of the more entertaining drivers of the day, although he came off worst in a three-way battle with Bruno Senna and Barrichello on lap 23 that left him with front wing damage. Recovering from that he promptly found himself in another three-way battle with Jerome D'Ambrosio and Daniel Ricciardo on lap 31, as he fought his way back up to 15th place just behind Heikki Kovalainen in the Lotus and just ahead of his own Sauber team mate Sergio Perez in 16th.
There were definitely surprises to be had at Yeongam - how little effect the dirty side of the grid actually had at the start for example, and the relative lack of impact of tyre degradation despite the teams' fears going in - but ultimately the winner was not one of them. Sebastian Vettel was triumphant again, with the enthusiastic radio celebrations and the pointing finger working to full effect.
Strangely, despite losing out on the race win, Lewis Hamilton looked far happier after the race than he had done after clinching pole position on Saturday - as well he should, because it was surely one of his best drives of the year. He even smiled as he congratulated Vettel and Webber before the podium presentation, and when he lifted the trophy he will surely agree that this was one he had needed to work exceptionally hard for.

I want to use the ISA message filter to remove any emails that have .exe's in them. So I understand that I have to install the Message screener on a separate box that has IIS SMTP on it (I don't have the IIS SMTP feature on my ISA box). Is there any problem with putting Message Screener on my box that already has GFI ME on it ?

text: Can some atheist please tell me what is wrong with the following statement? ------------------------------------ " -God has always been -Then why can't we say the universe has always been?" A: From a purely scientific standpoint, it is easy to demonstrate that matter cannot be eternal in nature. The universe is expanding from what appears to be a beginning point in space/time, which appears to be a one time event. Hydrogen is the basic fuel of the cosmos, powering all stars and other energy sources in space. If the fuel of the universe has been used eternally, that fuel will eventually be depleted, but the evidence is that the cosmological gas gauge, while moving toward "empty," is yet a long way from being there—a condition incompatible with an eternal universe. The second law of thermodynamics insists that the cosmos is moving toward a condition of disorder, sometimes referred to as "heat death." Even in an oscillating universe, things ultimately run out of energy and "die." All of these evidences, and several others we have not made reference to, show that matter cannot be eternal, as Dr. Sagan and his associates would like to believe. However, this does not mean that we automatically accept the hypothesis that God is the Creator. Why is it not equally invalid to suggest that God has always been? --------------------------------------- Enjoy.

It is not the absence of evidence that makes me an atheist. It is my awareness of the fact that the idea a frankly absurd. Intelligence or skill in one area does not mean intelligence or skill in all areas. It does not matter what other people think the world is like, whether or not they are 'scientists'. We have varying degrees of genetic susceptibility to being overwhelmed by our emotions that getting in the way of an objective world view. I don't find it surprising at all that many people good at science, don't understand the full implications of the axioms they use to do science.
It appears to me that Francis Collins believes because he wants to believe. He had at least one experience that seemed mystical to him, but he fails to realize that our marvelous brain will conjure-up strong emotions, even visions, if we want them strongly enough.
Exactly. Idaho Spud. And furthermore, he testifies very clearly that he does not agree with creationism and their errors of logic, but he does have a sense of the spiritual.
Is it possible that he and others feel a sense of wonder? I feel that all the time, i.e. My goodness, this water is precious and I am not the one responsible for creating it, only to manage it wisely; the sky full of stars enchant me and I had nothing to do with making them even as I enjoy them; or my great-grandchildren are very special even as my step-great-grandchildren are; or the baby girl I watched being born in China is a marvel to behold, even as I wept knowing she had few options in this world.
"Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?"
-Douglas Adams
MCT, yes, it is enough to see that a garden is beautiful.
We live in a culture that embraces a god belief based on the ignorant assertion of our forbearers of power and wisdom to proclaim as known the unknown decrying the unknown to be god. God is nothing and represents the something unknown to the wisdom of vanity denying our own ignorance with arrogance. God and the question of god exists in and of this paradigm alone. Even as Atheist we are trapped by believers into this mindset. Leave being an atheist, step outside the box into a world where god never was an imaginary answer nor a something such as a social bonding mechanism confused for a driving power of god's spirit. step out and away into nature as it evolved into the complex from the simple from powers such as exploding stars the cooled into planets and stars and later life forms that emerged because the it simply could as it could not in other places and did not in other ways. step into that world searching for the reason life caught a foothold and life as people now looks back upon itself. we as natures entity building a body of information that informs anew, each generation without reverence to the infallible or outdated wisdoms of the past assessments, grow that human conscience to an understanding of self and nature, such that we traverse the black-hole in the center of our earth through wormholes out into other galaxies and back through particle data streaming. Now that we are outside that paradigm of old into what is natural, what is possible, and what becomes real, we have arrived to a new paradigm that is 100 percent free of god. It is only the precedent of religion preceding science much like ignorance precedes knowledge or bad habits learned first rear their ugly heads, that we are not 100 percent sure those old myths may have some place in life.
Jon T, it isn't easy to parse your sentences, but a black hole at the center of the Earth would doom us all in exceedingly short order. It would be disastrously evident in a matter of perhaps hours, were one ever to appear at the Earth's core. I don't dispute your other conclusions (if I understand them correctly), but you can't be serious about this idea.
My point is that god is an imagination of old ideas that we debate endlessly because we imagined it to be true first, and ignorance as does knowledge shapes belief if sprinkled with imagination. There are many things we are 100 percent sure do not exist like the imaginary infinitesimally small black hole that pulls matter into it at the center of the earth.
Hubris, Madhukar; evolution yes, origins no. Any headway in understanding origins only begs the question. A bit deeper into the unexplored cave goes the spelunker. On what rational basis can the spelunker be said to know what is beyond known limits?
I am wondering: wherefrom my name comes here? I am not in this discussion for long time.
Madhukar, it does get confusing and I am constantly trying to find the thread of a conversation. There are some things I want to chat with you but taxes are taking too much time. My dear family came for dinner tonight, but one of my sons and his family live far away and couldn't join us. We had 12 at the table tonight, ranging from two years old to 76 ... and I am so grateful for and proud of this splendid family. Life is sweet! I'll get back for a chat in a day or two. Hope all is well with you.

Most parents will be familiar with the fight against the temptation of the treats cupboard; with chocolate, crisps and biscuits becoming an all-too-easy way to keep children full between meals.
Unfortunately, unhealthy snacking is just one of the factors contributing to Luton's ever-expanding shocking childhood obesity statistics.
Obesity in Year R children (3-4yrs) in Luton is 11.2 per cent, significantly higher than the England average of 9.4 per cent, and for Year six children (10-11yrs) it's 21.9 per cent, compared to the England average of 19 per cent.
Alive N Kicking is a free healthy weight programme for parents and children to help educate them about better eating, and while the grown-ups take part in a relaxed and interactive lesson, the youngsters get to run around and play nearby.
Programme manager Matthew Hudson said: "We work with children aged 5-15 and their families, who are concerned about their weight. We support and empower our families to make manageable lifestyle changes that can have a positive impact on the health of the family as a whole. Alive 'N' Kicking is here to help families set and achieve nutritional and physical activity goals in pursuit of a healthier lifestyle."
No one is made to feel stupid, and there is a was real sense of everyone learning together.
Matthew explains things in ways which make you think differently about food, and I was quite shocked when we looked at some of the ingredients in foods you assume are healthy.
Mum-of-three Julie Coffey said: "I was referred here by the hospital as Lucas (9) had a BMI that was too high. I've been coming 10 weeks and found it really useful. I've made changes like not buying treats, and now if Lucas asks for a snack I give him something healthy like a yoghurt or a bit of fruit. It's easy to give in when your children are asking for chocolate, but it's better to stay strong and eventually they ask for the unhealthy things less."
Nicky Jerbi, who brings her seven-year-old daughter to the sessions, said: "It's about changing the family's mindset. We've all tried new foods in the sessions, and if the children see others trying new foods that encourages them to try them as well. It's fun."

PG and West saved the day big time going 20-of-30 from the field with 7 from downtown along with a 3-for-3 day at the stripe. The rest of the team shot 17-of-57 or 29.8% so if those two both had good games rather than great games this could been a loss.
When your job is to be the bench scorer you only need to pass when you don't have a shot or someone is wide open, but he's passing up shots to dish out a bad pass elsewhere. If he was the starting PF making him pass more would be a good idea but taking away his aggression was stupid when he's in for 18-22 a game. Also Danny is taking more shots than he did all last year since the fix the offense practice despite having more weapons around him.

random question.. who's the play by play guy on 93.1 with Croshere? i had to listen to the 2nd quarter on the radio coming back from downtown. he has to be the most boring, lifeless announcer ever. i assumed he was the Mavs announcer until i heard "Pacers Radio"
I love this team, always have and always will.
Best regards from Germany.
best part of that block was Terry's face afterward...
Jet's rockin' his "WTF just happened to me!?" look
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
Oh wow, are you serious? That's Mark Boyle, our long time radio play-by-play guy. Boring and lifeless he is not...
i had never listened to a pacers game on the radio before tonight, so thats all i have to go by.
"and George makes a three."
"ball is stolen, Granger drives in and scores"
stuff like that, all completely monotone.
Being a scorer is the reason to shoot, if we wanted a passer we should have took Lawson or kept Josh. Also when on the outside passing you can't draw fouls getting other players on the bench and feasting on the bonus or getting in faster. We don't have Hill and Tyler got 1 shot in 19:22 or the same as Lou who played 2:25. We got by with West and PG going off like they did tonight but that's not going to be the case every night and with no Hill for a while we need to get Tyler scoring off the bench.
I may be in the minority here but that extra .37 APG and bad passes aren't worth the loss in scoring and fouls drawn as well as the getting him in the flow of the game on both ends along with those shots not taken going to people like Lou, AJ or a Dahntay Jones circus shot in the lane.
Dude....if I knew about this a month ago...I would have asked for one when I went to the Pacers / Warriors game
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
By the way, D.Jones has been really good coming off the bench these past couple of weeks.
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
I see some similarities in Hibbert, but he is nowhere near the low post scorer that Smits was... yet. He is probably developing a mid-range game earlier in his career than Smits did. Roy is a better rebounder and is very much ahead of what Smits was defensively. However, Smits was not needed for rebounding nearly as much because we had Dale, AD, McKey, etc.
Smits was the #2 scorer on his teams, behind Reggie. He was always needed for scoring. I doubt Hibbert will feel the pressure to be the #2 scorer. We have Danny and George is emerging. The scoring on our present team will be much more balanced than any of the Reggie-Rik teams.
Looking back, I'm now very pleased with what Smits accomplished. I am certain I will say the same once Hibbert's career is over. The two function slightly different in their respective teams/eras, but both fit very well and will have established their places in Pacer history.
I don't know if Lance got any burn this game...and didn't really notice Amundson out there....but is it me...or did we go with a 8 man rotation?
I think that we can get away with it against a Team like the Mavs with a Center that can't score, Nowitzki, Terry, Roddy and Delonte West where we could switch off Paul George on the opposing Team's PG and letting DC guard the smaller SG ( Roddy / Terry / Delonte ) ...but I don't think that we can go without a bigger Frontcourt on a regular basis.

found this interview online
Nothing too interesting but thought i'd share anyways
...and i have no idea what D210 is (D for dallas i guess). Also, the interviewer seems super nervous & is pretty awkward lol
Here's the thing about Boyle, he's a big Pacers fan but he really believes in trying to be impartial in calling the games. I had a little back and forth with him on Facebook a year or 2 ago about this, I was comparing his work to Bob Lamey, who is the play by play guy for the Colts, who easily loses his **** in any game, any time. He really just believes it's his job to call the game so that the listener can best follow it. The broadcast seems really incomplete on the road this year without Slick Leonard, who has been his sidekick for a long time until he had health problems last season and has only been doing home games this year. His "Boom Baby!" after 3 pointers was really a staple of the radio broadcast. But if you put Mark in a big game, big play situation he can make some really, really great calls, like the ones I posted in my last post. It will be a sad say when Mark decides to move on.

This is tough because I want to just jump out right now and say that I think Roy is significantly better than Rik was.
However then I have to stop and think about the level of competition that Rik had to play against vs. what Roy does.
I'll just say this, I think Roy loves the game more and therfor ultimately will be the better player over time. That is not a slam at Rik but listeing to Rik talk after he left the game he stated that he never grew up loving the game and didn't really start working on it till college and after he left the game he attend on occasion but he has other interst. I think this is Roy's life.
I will be the first to admit though that I did not give Rik nearly enough credit while he was playing. In going back and watching him play now and comparing it to how soft todays NBA is I have to believe if Rik played today he would be almost an enforcer. He just happened to play in a time when even the small forwards in N.Y. (Mason) were stronger than most players in the NBA today.
I was there the night Rik scored 40 points vs. the Clippers and that was special.
Ok I'm rambling.
Right now Roy is the better defender and rebounder, Rik was the better shooter.
But if I had to pick one over the other I'll go with Roy everyday.
I'll repeat it for him and this should sound familiar because I have been beating this drum in every single thread where someone wants to pretend that our team should be ran like 2K12.
He said Team Chemistry.
We are a freaght train rolling, you do NOT want to mess that up.
George's top of the key 3 totally reminded me of Danny. You can tell they worked together all summer

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
Needham, MA, United States, 2010/07/19 - Windchill®-based modular platform PHENIX CHANGE provides harmonization, flexibility and efficiency within the enterprise (Nasdaq: PMTC). NASDAQ: PMTC
PTC (NASDAQ: PMTC), The Product Development Company®, today announced another major milestone in the strategic relationship between PTC and EADS with PHENIXCHANGE, the Windchill-based modular platform.
EADS selected PTC as the sole provider for its PHENIX Master Product Definition backbone in 2008 as part of its enterprise Product Lifecycle Management solutions (PLM). Since then, EADS has been working in partnership with PTC to set up a harmonized PLM environment that is both flexible and efficient for its multiple businesses and well integrated with the other applications constituting the EADS PLM core solution. The Windchill-based enterprise PLM solution is now deployed on multiple programs throughout the group.
"On behalf of the PHENIX program team, we are pleased to announce that we have fulfilled a commitment to the group by providing a modular enterprise PLM platform," said Jean-Yves Mondon, head of both the PHENIX program at EADS and the newly created PLM Harmonization Center. "This showed immediate as well as future value to the group and is mapped to key corporate initiatives at EADS."
Sponsored by the executive committee of EADS, PHENIX is a cross-divisional program and a group-wide strategic initiative launched in 2007 to achieve harmonization of enterprise PLM methods, processes and tools between its business divisions.
The EADS PHENIX organization and PTC have partnered to innovate the way in which several EADS business processes are embedded with PTC PLM technology into modules. The result is PHENIXCHANGE, an approach based on a configurable modular technology platform to provide both the benefits of harmonized processes for the group and the efficiency and flexibility of COTS (Commercial-off-the-Shelf) PLM technology for its business divisions. Jim Broughton, head of the PHENIX Integration Committee, added, "It is an exceptional human and innovative experience."
PHENIXCHANGE is a platform for supporting and maintaining PLM harmonisation and integration between the business divisions, for reduced time-to-market and for improvement of overall product quality.
"We are very pleased to demonstrate our technology leadership in enterprise PLM, our efficiency in execution and partnership spirit. Over the past year, the PHENIX program has matured into a full-fledged EADS-PTC partnership and is on track to deliver extensive value to EADS over the years," said James E. Heppelmann, president and chief operating officer, PTC.

Mmmmm, how interesting, eh, Morris and Debbie?
And someone else who lived on the Island some years ago no longer does.
Mmmmm. Even more interesting.
At least there's a place to park a car …
… And what a pity the Lilly Deacon pub is now a block of flats when the 'local' was so close, just across the road, and had such a great 'cellar'.
But then, maybe not.

A blast in the northern Gaza Strip killed an Palestinian Palestinian and critically wounded another, medical workers said on Saturday. Medical workers had earlier said two Palestinians had been killed in the blast.
According to Reuters, the Popular Resistance Committees group said an Israeli air strike targeted a group of its activists as they approached the Israel-Gaza border near the town of Beit Hanoun. An Israeli army spokesman denied that the army had carried out an air strike.

The U.S. ground troops deployed to Syria by the Trump administration to join the battle to retake Raqqa from the Islamic State are not welcome, said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in an interview published Saturday. "Any foreign troops coming to Syria without our invitation or consultation or permission, they are invaders, whether they are American, Turkish, or any other one," he charged.
"And we don't think this is going to help. What are they going to do? To fight ISIS? The Americans lost nearly every war. They lost in Iraq, they had to withdraw at the end. Even in Somalia, let alone Vietnam in the past and Afghanistan," Assad continued. "They didn't succeed anywhere they sent troops, they only create a mess; they are very good in creating problems and destroying, but they are very bad in finding solutions."
Though U.S. intervention in Syria, which is beset by the twin crises of civil war and ISIS invasion, began under President Obama, President Trump's recent decision to deploy 400 Marines and Army Rangers marks the first time U.S. troops will engage in conventional warfare in the country instead of maintaining an advisory role.

The GOP plans to raise the lowest individual tax rate from 10 percent to 12 percent while dropping the tax rate for the wealthiest Americans from 39.6 percent to 35 percent, Axios reports, based on conversations with five senior Republicans.
The White House intends to sell the plan as a "tax cut" for the middle class by doubling the standard deduction, which will leave many people paying no taxes: "The standard deduction would almost double to $12,000 for a single filer and $24,000 for married couples, meaning Trump can accurately argue that many more low-income earners would pay no tax under his plan," Axios writes. The seven tax brackets would be collapsed down to three.
"We have a tax plan that is totally finalized," Trump boasted Sunday. "I think it'll be terrific. I think it's going to go through." While Trump will introduce the proposal in Indiana on Wednesday, he is expected to leave details intentionally vague so congressional tax-writing committees have the flexibility to negotiate and maneuver. Read the full scoop at Axios. Jeva Lange
Appeals court overturns 2015 corruption charges of former New York state Senate majority leader
A federal appeals court has overturned the 2015 corruption charges of former New York state Senate Majority Leader Dean G. Skelos (R), 67, and his son, Adam Skelos, 33, due to the Supreme Court shrinking the scope of what constitutes as corruption last year, The New York Times reports.
According to the case laid out by prosecutors in 2015, the elder Skelos used his position to direct consulting payments to his son, ultimately amounting to roughly $300,000. Dean Skelos was sentenced to five years in prison in May 2016, and Adam was sentenced to more than six years.
Since the Skeloses' conviction, though, the Supreme Court "made it harder to prosecute public officials for corruption" when they overturned the conviction of former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell in June 2016, The New York Times writes. "We identify charging error in light of McDonnell v. United States, which was decided after this case was tried," determined a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in Manhattan. "Because we cannot conclude that the charging error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt, we are obliged to vacate the convictions."
The United States attorney's office is expected to retry the Skeloses. Jeva Lange
Americans' views on President Trump's tax reform proposals are split along predictably partisan lines, a new Washington Post/ABC News poll reports Tuesday, albeit with some noteworthy details.
A mere 7 percent of Democrats back Trump's plan compared to 60 percent of Republicans — a strong majority, but not an indicator of enthusiasm as dramatic as Democrats' distaste — and 29 percent of independents. In aggregate, just 28 percent of Americans support the plan. Another 44 percent oppose it, while 28 percent told pollsters they have no opinion, perhaps due to ongoing uncertainty as to what, exactly, the plan will change.
One point on which Americans can agree, however, is that middle and lower income earners deserve a tax break. Tax cuts for businesses receive greater support (45 percent) than those for the wealthy (33 percent), and corporate tax cuts are viewed most favorably, another survey published Monday noted, if they are cast as an opportunity for economic growth. Most of the Post/ABC poll respondents (51 percent) believe Trump's plan will cut income taxes for the rich, while a third say it will favor the middle class or treat both groups equally.

The Department of Homeland Security announces intention to collect information about immigrants' social media accounts
The Department of Homeland Security has announced its intention to expand the sort of information it collects on immigrants, with "social media handles, aliases, associated identifiable information, and search results" subject to be added to immigration files as soon as Oct. 18, BuzzFeed News reports. The new policy would apply to both green card holders and naturalized citizens.
The changes "will not only allow DHS to collect information about an immigrant's Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts, but it also mentions all 'search results,'" Gizmodo writes. "It's not immediately clear if that means the agency will have access to things such as Google search histories nor is it clear how that would be obtained."
An additional consequence of the new policy is that everyone who interacts with immigrants on social media would also presumably be subject to having those conservations under surveillance, Gizmodo reports. What's more, social media surveillance has historically not proven to be a promising mode of vetting: "In cases of benefit denial, the denial was based on information found outside of social media," presidential transition documents by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services report.
The Brennan Center's co-director of liberty and national security, Faiza Patel, raised another concern to BuzzFeed News: "The question is, do we really want the government monitoring political views?" Patel said. "Social media may not be able to predict violence but it can certainly tell you a lot about a person's political and religious views." Read the full report at BuzzFeed News. Jeva Lange
By the time you read to the end of this post, another person in America will have been arrested on charges of marijuana possession. In fact, on average, U.S. law enforcement arrest one person for pot possession every single minute of every single day.
In 2016, that pace amounted to about 587,700 arrests for marijuana possession nationwide, The Washington Post reported Tuesday based on aggregate crime data released by the FBI Monday. That figure is larger than the combined total of arrests for all crimes the FBI places in the violent crimes category, including murder, non-negligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, some cases of arson, and aggravated assault.
That comparison becomes all the more remarkable in light of the fact that polling shows about six in 10 Americans support legalizing recreational pot use, and public opinion has been steadily trending toward legalization for years. That support rate is 71 percent among millennials, now the largest generation in the United States, and even a majority of Republican millennials (63 percent) support legalization. Bonnie Kristian
When President Trump issued a new travel ban on Sunday, he dropped Sudan from his old ban and added three new countries: Venezuela, North Korea, and Chad. Of those three, only Chad has a (barely) Muslim majority, and all three are odd picks. The ban mostly targets government officials in Venezuela, and North Korea doesn't let its citizens leave — making it hard to argue that either ban makes America safer from terrorists, Trump's rationale. And Africa experts are baffled as to why Trump included Chad, a Central African nation with a close military partnership with the U.S. and France and a strong track record of combating Islamic militants.
Chad seems puzzled, too, and upset. On Monday, Chad said it is "baffled" and "astonished" to be included in the ban, and it "invites President Donald Trump to reconsider this decision, which severely tarnishes the image of Chad, and the strong relationship between the two countries, particularly in the fight against terrorism." Trump's proclamation said that "Chad does not adequately share public-safety and terrorism-related information and fails to satisfy at least one key risk criterion," but Africa experts said they doubt Chad is worse than its neighbors, especially Sudan, which is still on the State Department's list of state sponsors of terrorism.
"It makes no sense whatsoever. In fact I wonder if there wasn't some sort of mistake made," John Campbell, a former U.S. ambassador to Nigeria and senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, told BuzzFeed News. "It's an insult. What really gets to me is the apparent sheer stupidity of it." Brandon Kendhammer, a West Africa expert at Ohio University, said he bets "the ambassadors and AFRICOM are losing their minds right now." The decision is "totally nuts," he added. "This morning we were all like, 'What the hell is going on?'" "This makes no sense at all, even from a Trumpian standpoint," Reed Brody, a Human Rights Watch lawyer who has worked extensively in Chad, tells The New York Times.
Several analysts suggested that the lack of State Department and Pentagon experts may have contributed to the counterproductive decision. Trump hasn't even nominated 80 key State Department appointees, including the assistant secretary for African affairs, and the Pentagon is only 15 key positions confirmed out of 54. Peter Weber
Equifax has ousted CEO Richard Smith following the credit reporting agency's announcement earlier this month of a massive security breach, The Associated Press reports. Equifax's response to the breach, which affects an estimated 44 percent of the U.S. population, has been heavily criticized.
Additionally, the Justice Department has opened an investigation into whether or not three Equifax executives who sold $1.8 million in stock just days after the breach broke insider trading laws. Smith served as CEO since 2005; Paulino do Rego Barros Jr. will serve as interim CEO. Jeva Lange

I have heard/read mixed reviews on the tappits, most unfavorable. Which do most ccers prefer and why? Is there something out there that rivals both tappits and clicksticks? If so I would sure like to hear about it? Thanks to all who answer
here is a thread titled the same:
I use both because I like using different fonts. I'm not looking it up, but ig you google Edna's youtube video, she does the exact opposite from the directions that come with the tappits. Applying her method to both tappits and click stix will give you great results.
But I also still hate both. I charge .50 a letter and still cringe when someone orders them. They still take time even when they are made properly.
They take me no time at all. I roll out my gumpaste extra thin on my ultra clean kitchen counter but first put down a very thin layer of solid white fat (Crisco). Then I put a little Crisco on my fingers and bless the top of the paste with it. This way the letters stay stuck to the counter and don't stick to the tappits. I also grab one stick at a time and go through the phrase I'm cutting out (in my mind), using all the letters on that stick in my hand to cut out necessary letters from that one stick before moving on to the next stick. Saves fussing around looking through each stick for letters. I can press out a happy birthday message in under a minute. I usually leave the letters on the counter for a couple minutes to harden slightly before removing.
I didn't like Edna's method, I use the same method as Lorraine McKay
I've never used the clickstix so can't help you with that.
Never used the Tappits, but I love my Clickstix. They come out of the molds perfectly, and there are several fonts to choose from. I run my fondant/tylose through my pasta machine, cut it small squares, and press out the letters. Easy peasy.
Wow...thanks for all the feedback! Since I've never worked with either I've decided to purchase both and then decide which ones I like best. I'm also going to try both Edna's and Lorraine's methods. I'll post my results when I'm done. Thanks again!!
Never used the Tappits, but I love my Clickstix. They come out of the molds perfectly, and there are several fonts to choose from. I run my fondant/tylose through my pasta machine, cut it small squares, and press out the letters. Easy peasy.
I use the same method as poohsmomma. If my fondant is not cooperative for whatever reason after I press the fondant, I pop the clickstick in the freezer for a couple of minutes and it pops out. Works every time.
i love tappits. fondant with tylose, rolled thin, let it sit 15-20 minutes. then press and tap; they come right out.

When claiming married filing separately; mortgage interest is deducted by one person or both people?
When claiming married filing separately, mortgage interest would be claimed by the person who made the payment. Therefore, if one of you paid alone from your own account, that person can claim all of the mortgage interest and property taxes.
In most cases, if you paid the expenses with a joint account you must divide the expenses evenly. If you both were liable for and paid interest on your mortgage that was on a Form 1098, attach an explanation to your return. Include:
- How much of the interest each of you paid
- The name and address of the person who received the form
Deduct your share of the interest on Schedule A.
Ready to file?
You've got your forms. And we've got your back. There's only one thing left to do. Let's do this.
So how much will you get (or owe) this year? That's the million-dollar question. We happen to have three very useful calculators to help you estimate your refund or balance due.
