A total of 20 contestants will be cooking chili that day, judged by five anonymous judges for an overall award as well as the visitors for the People's Choice award. Musical entertainment will be provided by The Crossroads Band and Friends, a group that has been playing for the Griffin Humane Society's chili cook-off for many years.
The event is a fundraiser for the local humane society — an all-volunteer group that has been around for 29 years.
"Anything we make, we'll be happy with," said Debbie Yelvington, president and one of the founders of the Griffin Humane Society. "We do the best we can with what we can get."
Yelvington said this year's chili cook-off is dedicated to former Griffin Mayor Cecil Davis, who used to foster dogs at the local humane society and donate to the organization with his wife.
The event will not include animals for adoption, and those who want to bring their dogs need to keep them on a leash, she said.
Asked why it is important to support the Griffin Humane Society through the cook-off fundraiser, Yelvington said the group serves as an advocate for those animals who may otherwise have no advocate.
"We tend to help those who cannot help themselves. We take care of them," she said, adding that she encourages people to spay or neuter their animals.

I have a rather weird question today:
I am having a fast Gentoo-box with a 64bit i7 CPU and a rather slowish 32bit laptop, single core, on which I installed Sabayon for good reasons. Problem is now that here where I am (Philippines), the Internet connection is a pita and basically I download many packages twice, once for my Gentoo machine and then some days later Sabayon asks for it again...
Isn't there a techy, nice way to reuse my gentoo-distfiles or to deploy packages to the sabayon machine?
I hope I made clear what I mean.

Pryor commitment at center of rivalry
COLUMBUS — Terrelle Pryor hasn't spoken to Rich Rodriguez since the morning of his commitment. No one knows what Pryor told Rodriguez in their final conversation, but it wasn't "no thanks." That call came from his father, Craig.
"I had a relationship with Coach Rodriguez and his staff members," Pryor said. "It was kind of hard to say no to them, so I had my father talk to him."
Pryor's college choice ultimately came down to Ohio State and Michigan. After delaying the decision six weeks, Pryor stuck with his gut and chose the Buckeyes. The rest is history, for better or worse.
For Ohio State, it was for the better. For Michigan, it was for the worse. Much worse.
Pryor took over as the starter after just three games at Ohio State. Had he chosen Michigan, he likely would have started the opener. It's November, and Michigan's quarterbacks still haven't shown much progress since August.
Both Steven Threet and Nick Sheridan played last week for the Wolverines, but combined to complete just 12 of 36 passes for 83 yards. Threet has started most of the season and ranks last in the Big Ten in passing efficiency (105.3).
Sheridan is likely to get the start Saturday against the Buckeyes as Threet recovers from a shoulder injury. Against Northwestern, he completed 8 of 29 passes for 61 yards — a miniscule rating of 45.3.
Conversely, Pryor leads the Big Ten with an efficiency rating of 152.2. He has only thrown for 1,125 yards, but he has 10 touchdowns and just three interceptions. He is also the second-leading rusher with 560 yards and six touchdowns — one less than Beanie Wells.
"We knew that he was a talented young guy. Everyone in the country knew that," Tressel said. "I don't know that anyone knew just what a student of the game that he wanted to be."
A large part of Michigan's problems on offense revert back to the inconsistent play at quarterback. Pryor certainly could have made a difference in losses to teams like Toledo, Notre Dame or Purdue. Continued...
Rodriguez focused all of his efforts on recruiting Pryor, first to West Virginia and then to Michigan. Rodriguez reportedly called Pryor and informed him he was taking the Michigan job even before he told his own players.
Ever since Pryor committed, Rodriguez has refused to discuss the decision, typically dismissing all questions with "I only talk about players we have here."
This week, though, Rodriguez has no choice. As he watches game film of the Buckeyes this week, he is confronted with what could have been.
"There is a challenge because we're playing against him. He's obviously a terrific athlete, and the things he does well, we're going to have to have an answer for and try to stop them," Rodriguez said. "Sometimes he makes plays when the plays aren't even there. You may have good coverage or you may have it defended well, and he makes somebody miss or outruns somebody. So the challenge is focused on trying to stop him and trying to keep him from making big plays."
By wrestling Pryor away from Michigan, it was viewed as a double victory for Ohio State: Not only did Jim Tressel snag the nation's top recruit, but he also kept Pryor away from his biggest rival.
"A lot of times when you're involved in your regional recruiting, typically someone in your league is going to get someone that you don't," Tressel said. "I felt more of the win was the fact that we were getting a great young man coming to our program."
It is to Pryor's benefit that his first exposure to the Ohio State-Michigan game will be within the friendly confines of Ohio Stadium. Pryor has been a target for both opposing defensive players and fans in opposing stadiums.
Following the victory at Illinois, Pryor went over to slap hands with some Ohio State fans before pointing and laughing at the Illinois student section. The students responded by throwing objects at him.
"I love taunting," he said. "I like to have fun. I like to be taunted, I like taunting."
Such behavior is out of character with typical Tressel teams. After a few touchdown celebrations, Tressel has grabbed Pryor and told him to go celebrate with his teammates rather than run down the sideline waving his arms in the air. Continued...
It's a fine line between "having fun" and showing off, and Pryor is still learning how to walk it.
"He loves to compete and he loves people questioning whether he can get something done or not," Tressel said. "Is that always the best thing to communicate back and forth? Not always, but you don't know what was said, you don't know if it's good-natured."
Pryor has not spoken to Rodriguez since committing to the Buckeyes, and he's not entirely sure what to expect in this rivalry.
"I can't wait to find out," he said.

Martin Luther King, Jr. was most well-known for his role as a civil rights activist, but he also understood the need for balance with nature.
Early Saturday morning, Fuquay-Varina residents gathered at the Carroll Howard Johnson Environmental Education Park on Wagstaff Road to give back in honor of King. As part of the National Day of Service, called for by President Barack Obama, the Center for Human-Earth Restoration set up the project to plant 34 Chokeberry trees in the flood plane at the park.
Randy Senzig, president and board chair for the center, said King's "Cosmology of Connectedness" speech in December 1967 showed his understanding of nature's importance. So, this was a great way to honor him.
Volunteer Tricia Kitto said she was inspired by King's story and his love of community.
While she said it was hard to get up on the cold Saturday morning, she was happy to help.
"(King) had to overcome a lot more than 26 degrees," she said.
Tricia and her son, John, came out to help dig holes and plant trees. They learned about the project after seeing a post on Twitter about the National Day of Service.
Tricia went to the White House website and put in the Fuquay-Varina zip code to find ways to volunteer locally. Not only was the tree planting project close to home, but Tricia said it was a cause she liked as well.
"It certainly is a worthy project," she said.
John said it's great to encourage the National Day of Service, but he wanted to get out and actually participate.
The Chokeberries were donated by a nursery in Durham and the project was approved by Fuquay's Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department. During the fall months, students from Fuquay-Varina Middle School helped remove invasive species from the area in preparation for the project.
The trees, natural hybrids between the red and black Chokeberries, are purple. They are native to the Piedmont area and grow to be eight to 12 feet tall and about nine feet wide.
In May, the trees' white flowers will bloom and they will bear fruit into the middle of the winter, offering food for the local birds.
The Center for Human-Earth Restoration does many projects throughout the year. Iris Senzig, the center's chief operating officer, said through the CORES (Character growth through Observation, Restoration, Ecology and Scientific principles) project, eighth grade students went to the park nine times during the fall. They will return in February and March.
Iris said the purpose of the project is to help students feel that they can express themselves in a natural way. Many students use time in the park to journal and take a timeout from their hectic, electronic-filled day.
The center will begin a program with high schoolers this spring. And the Earth Elder Revolution will start soon as well. The five-week class for retirees will help develop an environmental project that can be monitored over several months, giving locals the chance to become more connected with nature.

C.J. and The Poets are a side-project grown out of local bluegrass and Americana favorite The Groundhawgs.
"I think Groundhawgs fans will enjoy what we've got in store," said Clayton Jones, frontman of the band. "This is a little more rockin' than the bluegrass numbers," he said. Jones, guitar and lead vocals, has been playing music in the Northwest Georgia area for the past 20 years.
In addition to his work with the Groundhawgs, he has been playing guitar for the Georgia Griddle Lickers as well as performing original compositions with his brother, Clark Jones.
Jones is joined by Sean Bennett on drums. Bennett is from Silver Creek. Recently, Bennett has been touring with Julie Gribble, a singer-song writer from L.A. Finishing out the line-up for the Mad Poets is Chris Hodges on standup bass. Hodges is an artist and educator living in Rome, GA currently teaching art at Rome High School.
"I just want to make good art," said Hodges. See www.chrishodgesfineart.com for more information.

The Chemical Synthesis program focuses on the development of new, efficient synthetic methodologies and on the synthesis of complex and/or challenging molecules. Typical synthetic targets involve novel structures, structures displaying unique properties, or structures providing pathways to discover and elucidate new phenomena. Examples of supported research areas include the development of innovative reagents, catalysts for synthetic transformations, discovery of new synthetic methods, target-oriented synthesis, green synthesis, and synthesis of novel organic, organometallic, and inorganic structures. Research in this program will generate fundamental knowledge of chemical synthesis that enables the development of new avenues of basic chemical research and transformative technologies.
Submissions that address national needs for sustainability are encouraged. Examples include the development of new synthetic methods using earth abundant and inexpensive chemicals, fundamental studies that improve our understanding of rare earth elements, and the conversion of non-petroleum based resources into useful building blocks.
The Chemical Synthesis program does not support projects whose main objectives are to study the properties of target systems even though they may contain a large synthetic component. Synthesis of nano structures, supramolecular assemblies, and polymers should be directed to the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry program. Proposals containing a synthesis component but have a major focus on the mechanistic study of catalytic reactions should be submitted to the Chemical Catalysis program.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
A fellow told me that when he had surgery at Sloan Kettering in NYC, they were prepared to graft nerve tissue from his heel if there was damage to nerves that would affect sexual function. That did not come to pass for him, but he said it did for another person and the result was good. This was a first and only I heard of this. Have you heard of it?
Richard Whittington, MD, Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, responds:
They are talking about a peroneal nerve graft. This nerve carries sensation to the heel region and is not a really important nerve, so it is expendable in a sense. When urologists do a radical prostatectomy and they need to remove the neurovascular bundle, they will use a length of your peroneal nerve to replace the nerve that was removed in the "neuro" part of the neurovascular bundle. It is actually kind of cool. They have to graft the nerve in very carefully, because each nerve is only about 1-2mm across. They then use a nerve stimulator to stimulate the nerve proximal to the graft and see if the man gets an erection. That tells them that the graft is working. They actually do this 8 to 10 times to be sure it is functioning properly.
Dr. Peter Scardino, Chief of Urology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, is the expert at this procedure, and he reports that when the graft works in the operating room, there is about a 50% chance that it will work permanently. In a radical prostatectomy, they use a 2 cm length of the nerve, and the blood supply called the "vasa nervorum" is supplied from both ends. If you tried to perform this in abdominal cancers which can have erectile dysfunction as a complication, I would suspect that you would need a 10 to 15cm length of the nerve, and the likelihood of a compromised vasa nervorum somewhere along the length would be pretty high. All you need is a small area where the blood supply is lost and the tissue dies somewhere along the length of the nerve, and the whole nerve becomes useless. So, while peroneal grafting is successful in some prostate cancer cases, it may not be good for other abdominal surgeries.
Dr. Vapiwala discusses the decisions to screen for breast and prostate cancers. Read more.

Bo Johnson is 13 years old and absolutely amazing! He was diagnosed with Leukemia about a year ago and was just told that in his 13th year, he cannot beat it anymore...so Bo went home to Sister Bay to be with his family and friends to live out his day~
Doctors told Bo he developed a rare and fatal form of Leukemia. As he copes with his fate, Bo hopes his effort to cure childhood cancer will live on after he is gone.
Bo has always wanted a souped up, burnt orange Chevy El Camino.
On Sunday, Bo, 13, and family and friends got to go and meet the Green Bay Packers. When Bo and his family were told he didn't have long to live, the Make-A-Wish Foundation supplied the ride as well as a once in a lifetime Packers experience with family and friends.
"I (got) to go out on the field," said Bo. "I met the best – to me – the best athlete in the whole NFL," he added about meeting with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers prior to the Packers-San Francisco 49ers football game.
"I've gotten to do things I've never thought I would ever do before."
While jet skiing over Labor Day weekend, the Sister Bay native suffered a fractured pelvis.
Weeks later after being on crutches, his mother Annika Johnson says he started to feel more and more pain in his body.
After numerous tests, doctors and hospitals, doctors finally diagnosed Bo with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, or AML.
Johnson says Bo went through both radiation, chemotherapy and seemed to be doing well.
But on his 13th birthday, Bo was diagnosed with a more aggressive form of the disease called Extramedullary Acute Myeloid Leukemia and underwent a bone marrow transplant.
She says everything seemed to be progressing as well as one could expect, until about two weeks ago.
"Unfortunately there is nothing more we can do for Bo's Extramedullary Leukemia," recalled Johnson of when the doctors told Bo and the rest of his family. "He is going to die from his disease."
"I've tried to be a good mom," added Johnson. "I've tried to instill good values in him. But what I've learned from this kid - I didn't teach him."
Johnson says throughout it all, Bo has shown maturity beyond his years.
"As my goal, I would like to cure childhood cancer," said Bo.
The "Go Bo Fund" had been established for the community to help Bo get through treatments.
Bo planned on taking it over when he beat cancer.
Now he hopes the fund will help others.
"(For) a 13-year-old, I should be doing stuff 13-year-olds do," said Bo. "But now, I just want to do more serious stuff in the world to make a difference."
It's an attitude his cousin looks up to.
"He's just made it so far," said Thor Johnson. "It's not that he lost the fight - he's still fighting."
And living his days to the fullest.
Bo is currently in hospice care at home in Door County.
An account for the Go Bo Fund is set up at the Sister Bay/Northern Door Associated Bank. It can be reached at (920) 854-2339.

Man arrested for allegedly threatening Henderson HS
Submitted by WIKY News on Mon, 04/22/2013 - 10:05am
A young man has been arrested on terroristic threatening charges, after he allegedly made statements about using explosives at Henderson County High School. Extra security is being provided at the school after 20-year-old Brenden Mathis was arrested. Henderson Police say a witness overheard a conversation and took a photo of Mathis telling a juvenile how he could use explosives at the school. The witness then contacted police and provided officers with a photo of Mathis. The Henderson County School District assures parents that the school is safe.
Chicago power outages raise gas prices
Submitted by WIKY News on Sat, 04/20/2013 - 11:19am
Gas prices have seen a spike in Indiana over the last few days, and one expert says it's due to problems in Chicago. Patrick DeHaan of GasBuddy.com says massive power outages in that area forced the shutdown of refineries and pipelines that carry gasoline through Indiana. DeHann says it's hard to say when prices will settle back down, but says it won't happen until traders regain confidence in the market.
Evansville Police have confidence in security cooperations
Submitted by WIKY News on Sat, 04/20/2013 - 8:23am
In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing, Evansville's Police Department is paying attention to how Massachusetts organized the large-scale public lockdown. Sergeant Jason Cullum says he is confidence the department could work with local, state, and federal agencies if a similar serious event occurred in Evansville. Cullum says law enforcement officials stay already updated on the best ways to improve event security, by doing an annual review of security and giving daily briefings to officers working events.
Fertilizer plant explosion in Texas raises doubts
Submitted by WIKY News on Fri, 04/19/2013 - 6:10pm
Congressman Larry Buschon tells WIKY News that he supports the decison of Gov. Mike Pence to proceed cautiously on the proposed fertilizer plant at Mount Vernon. Buschon says questions must be answered about the involvement of Fatima, a Pakistani company, as a major part of the project. And Buschon is concerned about safety, following the blast that killed several persons and left 60 unaccounted for --and probably dead -- at West, Texas. Valley Watch President John Blair raises questions about the safety of the Mount Vernon project, and a similar undertaking at Rockport.

Volunteer firefighters were dispatched and they extinguished the flames. Nobody was hurt.
Police link phone hoax and bank robbery
Submitted by WIKY News on Fri, 04/19/2013 - 12:04pm

Police say phone records indicate 43-year-old John Martinez made the hoax call to divert police away from the robbery that happened a half-hour later at the Fifth Third branch on Weinbach. Martinez is now expected to face charges of intimidation and false informing on top of charges related to the hold-up.

Fertilizer plant explosion in Texas to raise questions about Posey County plant
Submitted by WIKY News on Thu, 04/18/2013 - 1:48pm
As the nation focuses on the fertilizer plant explosion in the little town of West, Texas, some Posey County residents may be re-evaluating how they feel about a much larger fertilizer plant proposed for their area. The nearly $2 billion Midwest Fertilizer Corp. project won initial support from the governor's office but is being given a new look by Gov. Pence following reports that one of the major investors is a Pakistani firm, the Fatima Group. The U.S. and Pakistan have seen a deteriorating relationship in recent years.

The Harper Government recently passed Bill C-45, which among other things, has basically shit on Aboriginal rights and used the treaties as toilet paper. Naturally, a large number of Native Americans in Canada are a little upset. Fuck Harper. In addition to getting fucked over on treaty rights, one of the articles of the Canadian Constitution says that Aboriginal leaders must be consulted on any decisions involving Canada's resources. One of the items in C-45 is more-or-less summed up in the following picture that's been floating around my Facebook feed for a while: Which is somewhat misleading, as the ACTUAL number of protected waterways in Canada has gone from 2.5 million to 159. But the point still stands: Fuck Harper. Chief Theresa Spence is protesting this new legislation by going on a hunger strike. Because seriously, Fuck Harper.
Fuck Canadians. We had a chance to vote them out on their asses and we didn't. I'm genuinely saddened by what Canada has become since the Conservatives came to power. Fortunately I've been in Japan for pretty much all of that time but ill be coming home eventually. Hopefully Canadians have wised up by then.
I've spent a little time in northern reserves. They're pretty fucking dire. Also, very often the people are their own worst enemy, both figuratively and literally (see: Kashechewan and Fort Albany). However, you would not go far wrong if you simply assume that Harper is incapable of good faith efforts.
For the benefit of Canadian readers it's helpful to append "Warning: Christie Blatchford" to links like that.
In an odd coincidence, a federal trial court found that Metis count as "indians" for the purposes of the Constitution Act 1867. This effectively doubles the number of people who will qualify as "Indians" and to whom the federal government has particular obligations. That ruling will definitely be appealed to the Federal Court of Appeal and then to the Supreme Court of Canada, but interesting nonetheless.
In regards to Spence: going to remind people here that tying the success of a movement to a single champion can lead to disappointments once the other side starts digging for dirt. There is a lot of room for petty corruption and abuse of power even in the least insular of reserves, and once you get away from prying eyes internal reserve politics can be rather unsavoury. Think of what Rob Ford gets away with, then consider what he could do if a quarter of the people in his constituency were personal friends or relatives. And, as always, assume everything the government says is disingenuous if not an outright fabrication.
Chief Spence has now turned down a meeting with PM Harper this Friday because the Governor-General isn't attending. Seriously?
I can understand why she would want the Governor-General at the meeting, if only because of the special relationship between the crown and First Nations. That said the Governor-General has done exactly what he should have since as the Queen's representative he absolutely needs to be above politics. That said she's ruined whatever credibility she had with me (which wasn't much). From what I know the entire point of the hunger strike was to get a meeting with Harper and now she backs out at almost the last second?
Not surprising Deloitte had an unfavorable audit of the bands finances. While their situation is fairly shitty, it'd be nice to know where the federal money being sent to them is going. The GG/Crown haven't had any kind of power in Canada in decades, so I'm not sure why she'd want a Royal rep at the proceedings. I guess she would rather stay in the media spotlight and make ridiculous demands than try and get anything done with (fuck)Harper. And while (fuck)Harper has shown about as much respect for the First Nations as he has the environment, he's at least made a token effort to listen. As an aside, there was an #IdleNoMore protest at the Waterfront Skytrain station the other day. Well, "protest". It was mostly a bunch of people dressed up in cool costumes dancing and playing music. Much like Occupy, the FN groups are going to have to come up with a clear message about what they want done, or else this posturing will be about as useful as Facebook slacktivism.
AFAIK the report covers a five year span and Spence has been in charge for two, so you'd have to dig through it to get a correct impression of matters. Even then, sometimes the new guy covers for the old guy who was coasting to retirement because of familial connections or what have you. Then again, sometimes they pillage the reserve finances, set themselves up nice and cozy, give choice positions to friends, and drive their enemies out of town.
I don't know, but I suspect that it has to do with the constitutional relationship between First Nations and the government, which is a relationship between the first nation and the Crown in right of Canada. In other words, Canada's obligations to First Nations don't emanate from Parliament or the Prime Minister's office, but from the authority of the Crown. Since the GG is the representative of the Crown, it makes sense to include the governor general, although it remains symbolic.
That makes sense. I suppose one of the issues is the First Nations feel the PM isn't honouring the agreement made between the Monarchy and themselves, but it seems to me that Spence is damaging her credibility by refusing to even consider a meeting with the PM.
From what I've seen though that meeting will only be ceremonial - undoubtedly to keep the Governor-General's role at a minimum and thus preserve David Johnson's impartiality. In the end I think Idle No More would be better served by trying to get into parliamentary politics. Sure we already have more than enough division there, and it would likely fragment the left even more, but a party founded solely for Aboriginal rights might gain the kind of traction the Bloc had in its heyday. If First Nations could do that and find their own Charles Stewart Parnell they'd be infinitely better served than in our current situation. Likely though that simply can't happen due to the more diffuse nature of First Nations since the Bloc could rather easily focus its efforts in a single province. Besides that they didn't have to deal with the kind of endemic racism that still pollutes most of our interactions on a day-to-day basis - something which I think goes both ways as well.
Attawapiskat is now holding their annual shitflood. Not to be outdone, Kashechewan is also participating in this most sacred of northern reserve traditions. Turns out that if you as the federal government are planning a community that needs a ~15 ft tall earthen berm to protect your community from house sized chunks of ice and the flooding caused when they block the river, you should probably do something to isolate your sewage system from the movements of the water table. I hope you'll all forgive me if I quote myself: One last point is that Fort Albany, right across the river from Kashechewan, is doing fine right now. But, you see, it's Catholic; and Kashechewan is traditional.
More people from Attawapiskat are being evacuated. Word on the street seems to be that the Federal government still isn't going to part with land any time soon so that they can relocate these reserves inland of the floodplain they're currently located on. This isn't surprising, the chief of Kashechewan has been agitating for it since I was there in 2006. You would think they could part with some of the vast tract of peat bog and tortured and stunted woodland that is James Bay, given that it's almost completely devoid of human life or economically viable resources, and just link the new reserve to a barge accessible waterway with narrow gauge rail for the various supply needs. But then you wouldn't be the government of Canada. So, same time next year?

Dorothy's Diary
Dorothy's Diary Chapter 1, Dealing With Loss
I worked in my garden today. It was cold, a typical fall day that was somehow appropriate to my autumnal, melancholy mood. It is still hard for me to think of it as "my" garden. This was always Steve's province and my only involvement was to pick some flowers, or some vegetables from the back garden. Even this Steve usually did, beaming with pride as he came into the kitchen bearing a basketful of golden corncobs, fat cucumbers or scarlet, juicy tomatoes.

Frequently Asked Questions / Coping with Cancer / Nutrition During Treatment
Ellen Sweeney, RD
Last Modified: December 30, 2001
Can you take any type of herbal supplements while on chemotherapy? Is it okay to take Moducare through chemotherapy? My daughter is 23 years old and is taking chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease.
Ellen Sweeney, RD, Clinical Nutrition Specialist at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania responds;
Because there is so little valid research on the interactions between herbal supplements and chemo, we (oncologists and dietitians) do not recommend any herbal type supplements at all during treatment. Many herbs can act as blood thinners and antioxidants for example, which would be contraindicated during chemotherapy.
Another concern is that since herbal supplements are not regulated at all in the U.S., their purity, quality, and standardization is highly questionable, not to mention the 'cancer cure' claims they sometimes make when there is no quality research to substantiate it.
Moducare is one of these supplements. The company that makes it claims that it has researched its immune stimulating effects. The company has done some limited, seemingly valid research (not in the U.S. however) on its immune stimulating effects in AIDS and prostate problems, but no significant research with cancer. Taking any of these 'immune enhancing' supplements is not advised because of the lack of valid research to support its use, its effectiveness, and its safety.
The most immune enhancing effects have been seen with a diet, not supplements, that is high in fruits and vegetables (7-9 servings per day). The only supplement that is recommended during treatment is a standard (Centrum type) multivitamin/mineral. If you have further questions on supplements, including herbals, ask an oncology dietitian, if one is available where your daughter is being treated.

And kc that last shot is sweeet, maybe only apply contrast to the foreground by selecting the background the inverting selection in photoshop or whatever your using, because the sky doesnt look as good/natural as it could/should, or alternatively select foreground and just reduce the brightness or increase the blacks a little bit to get the same silhouhette your going for without making it to contrasty, cos i always used to add wayyy to much contrast as it sort of gives it a bit of pop but sometimes comes out looking just not right

My wife got me this for Xmas and I have to say that this thing is a coffee drinkers dream. It is so nice to have a fresh cup of coffee every time you reach for a cup.
Xmas day I tried several different flavors and didn't realize I had drank six cups at one point. She also bought me the Perfect Pushup and needless to say because of the caffeine in my system I just had to show all of our guests how well it works.
Anybody else have one and do you love it?

A sexual escapade involving a couple and another guy. The couple is doing it doggy style against a window on the ground floor of a building. The boyfriend has to be thrusting at a certain rhythm. Then, after a few minutes, he tells the girl to hold on a second and switches with the other guy, who pumps at the same rhythm. The girl has no idea someone else is fucking her. Then her boyfriend puts on his clothes and quickly runs outside, to the window where he waves at his girlfriend. The bitch is scared shitless. Thaddeus: I'm feelin' kinky tonight, let's do it against this window where everyone can see.
Shaniqua: Alright baby Thaddeus&Mark: Heheh we gonna ghost this bitch ...5 minutes later... Shaniqua: Ooooh baby, the rhythmic pattern to which you are currently penetrating me is delectable! Please continue! Thaddeus: Oh yeah...hold on a minute girl... *switches with Mark* Shaniqua: Yessss...30bps, just how I like it Thaddeus: *waving* Hey baby Shaniqua: Hey boy--OH MY FUCKING GOD *collapses* Mark: Oh SHIT, she just had a heart attack Thaddeus: Oh SHIT ghosting is some dangerous shit Mark: Oh snap, I think yo' bitch is dead! Thaddeus: Oh fuck... Mark:... Thaddeus:... Mark: 30 bps good for you too? Thaddeus: Lez get it on... |

Ghosting, or "to ghost" is The act of one or more dead players spectating an alive enemy player, with the intent of revealing his or her actions or location to their alive comrades, giving them an unfair situational advantage. This is achieved usually through a voice chat program, such as Ventrillo, or an IRC client.
Ghosting may also be referred to as as "Venting" in popular games like Counter-Strike. The term derives from the most popular method of ghosting in Counter-Strike, which is to use the program Ventrillo, "venting" is short for "ventrillo-ing" meaning Using Ventrillo to ghost "WTF? that douche nozzle is totally ghosting with one of this friends.

Indians: Gomes will play for Team Brazil in the WBC during spring training
For all those Indians fans who have been wondering when the team was going to fill that gaping hole on their roster for a Portuguese-speaking, Brazilian-born catcher/third baseman/first baseman — your ship has finally come in.
Say hello to Yan Gomes.
Then say goodbye to Yan Gomes.
In spring training he'll take time out from trying to win a job on the Indians' opening day roster in order to fly to Japan as a member of Team Brazil, which will compete in the World Baseball Classic.
"Hopefully they (Indians officials) won't hold it against me that I'm going to be representing my country," said Gomes.
The globetrotting Gomes rarely stays in one place very long. He was born in Brazil, speaks fluent Portuguese, attended high school in Miami, was a freshman All-American as a catcher at the University of Tennessee, transferred to Barry University in Miami, was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 10th round of the 2009 June Draft, played minor league ball in, among other places, New Hampshire, Lansing, Mich., and Las Vegas, and was traded to the Indians two months ago.
"He's a great story," said Indians Vice President of Player Personnel Ross Atkins. "The first Brazilian to make it to the major leagues."
That happened last year, following the first of the five times Gomes was recalled by the Blue Jays from Triple-A Las Vegas.
In 305 at bats at-Las Vega,s Gomes, a right-handed hitter, batted .328 with 13 home runs and 59 RBI. His batting average, slugging percentage (.557), and OPS (.938) all would have ranked in the top 10 of the Pacific Coast League had he not been called up to the majors five different times.
"Only five? It seemed like more," said Gomes, with a laugh. "But I took it as a benefit. I learned a lot and got a lot of experience." Continued...
In 98 at-bats with the Blue Jays, Gomes hit just .204 with four homers and 13 RBI, but he impressed the Indians enough that they were willing to trade one of their top relief pitchers last year, Esmil Rogers, to Toronto for Gomes and infielder Mike Aviles.
"The trade surprised me, but I'm excited to be here, and to have the chance to play for a manager as well respected as Terry Francona," said Gomes.
"What stands out most about Yan is his commitment to baseball," said Atkins. "It's evident that it's very important to him. What his role will be here remains to be seen, but he has no ceiling."
In all likelihood, Gomes will compete with Lou Marson for the backup catcher's role. However, Gomes could also figure in as a utility infielder, since he has experience playing first and third base.
"I still like to think I'm a catcher at heart," he said.
Last year with the Blue Jays, in addition to catching and playing first and third base, Gomes was also used in left field and as a designated hitter.
All that versatility could be a big plus for him as he tries to win a spot on the Indians' roster.
Gomes was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and his family moved to Florida when he was 12 years old.
"I spoke nothing but Portuguese when we moved to Florida, but I learned English in middle school," said Gomes, who speaks excellent English, without an accent.
Gomes said there are no real organized youth baseball leagues in Brazil. He started playing the game at age seven, as part of a club team. Continued...
His baseball career took off when he came to this country, but he is still a citizen of Brazil, and played on the national team, managed by Hall of Fame shortstop Barry Larkin, in the WBC qualifier. Gomes drove in the only run of the game in Brazil's 1-0 win over Panama, to advance to the 16-team WBC field. That tournament starts in March, which is when Gomes will leave for Japan.
"It's going to be exciting," he said. "We were underdogs vs. Panama, but we played with no fear."
Following the WBC, Gomes will return to the Indians spring training camp in Goodyear, Ariz., and resume his quest to win a big-league job.
"The Indians are a team on the way up and I hope to be a part of it," he said.
Arbo men
Tuesday was the deadline for eligible players to file for salary arbitration. The Indians had seven players among the 133 major leaguers who filed. The Indians who filed are Matt Albers, Mike Aviles, Lou Marson, Justin Masterson, Chris Perez, Joe Smith and Drew Stubbs.

Hi, Todd,
I only did the one day, because the 15 water gain caused a severe peaking of my blood pressure, along with severe shortness of breath, and exacerbated some other health issues I was dealing with at the time. It was too dangerous for me to keep it up at that time. Like I said, being older (I'll be 50 this next year) and very overweight, I'm unwilling to take that kind of chance of stressing my body. So, I'm taking the gentle route, and so far, so good. I'm feeling good, all bodily processes are working fine (digestion and elimination, if you will forgive me, LOL), and I don't have to worry about anything being harmful in any way to my system. And like another writer said, it just doesn't seem like a natural way of dealing with my body. If something feels awry with my system, a few days of simple water fasting seems to work best for cleansing.
But again; everyone is at a different place, and I know that different things work for different folks. You've had an amazing experience with the whole raw foods lifestyle thing, Todd, and you have my admiration. (I've been following your story on fromsadtoraw--thanks for being willing to share so much of your story.) I just am following a different path that seems to work better for me right now.

Aquatic Animal Imports
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency:
- implements controls to prevent aquatic animal diseases from being introduced into Canada, and
- safeguards Canada's natural aquatic animal resources.
Exemptions for aquatic animals used as pets or for personal use do require the owner to verify the intended use of the animal. These exemptions are outlined in the Health of Animals Regulations.
Import Permits
Import permits are required for susceptible species of finfish, molluscs, and crustaceans. These animals must meet the import requirements to enter Canada.
Enforcement of the aquatic animal import permit requirements will be phased in and will come into effect either on December 10, 2012, February 4, 2013 or April 8, 2013 depending on the specific end uses and the applicable codes.
Import permits contain specific requirements based on the disease risks associated with the animal, the origin, and other relevant health information. Imported aquatic animals may require health certification from the country of origin, to ensure that the animals imported into Canada, meet Canada's aquatic animal health requirements.
The Application for Permit to Import PDF (140 kb) is completed by the importer. Prior to completing the application, the importer should ensure that a permit is required for the commodity(ies) being imported. Please verify that a permit is required with the CFIA Area Office.
The completed application is faxed or mailed to the CFIA Area Office. Fees will be charged for import permits, where applicable.
You will be contacted by the CFIA Area Office within five (5) business days of receipt of the application form with information on how to proceed.
Importers should be aware that any conditions associated with aquatic animal imports are posted on the Automated Import Reference System (AIRS).
For important updates on aquatic animals policies and information on changes to AIRS, importers are encouraged to sign-up to recieve email notifications.
Information we provide for the aquatic animal industry includes:
- 2012-11-30 – Notice to Industry – Import Requirements for Aquatic Animals
- Aquatic Animal Diseases
- Consultation: Changes to import requirements for aquatic animals
- Containment Standards for Facilities Handling Aquatic Animal Pathogens

Eyewitness News Rides-Along With Snow-Plower During CNY Storm
By: Rachel Polansky
Updated: December 27, 2012
Eyewitness News reporter Rachel Polansky spent the morning riding along with Art Risucci, an area snow-plower. He spent all day and night plowing over 40 driveways. But he says keeping people safe is what keeps him going.
"We got up at 2am, we went out at 3am, we went 3 times around with everybody," says Arthur Risucci, Art's Tree, Stump, Snow Removal.
Risucci says when a storm hits, he makes sure his customers are taken care of.
"ItLs a long-term relationship. when I get a plowing customer, I always tell them, it's not something I want for 1 year. I'm gonna do it the rest of my life so I wanna have customers that are gonna stay with me for a lot of years," says Risucci.
And he says he's been doing it for over 30 years, and for a few of the same customers.
"I still probably have 10-15 customers that I've done since day 1," says Risucci.
"I don't have to call him, he's always there when the snow is there," says Margaret Morris, Deerfield resident.
"I live all alone so it's rather necessary," says Evelyn Perry, Deerfield resident.
"I'm 81 years old. What if I had a heart attack, you gotta get out, so we need that driveway open," says Morris.
But Risucci says snow-plowing is no easy job.
"When it's snowing hard, we're looking for the addresses of drive ways, so it takes us a little longer. Everybody tries to go around you. It becomes dangerous," says Risucci.
Risucci says snow-plowers face more obstacles than people might think. The placement of your recycling bins and garbage cans, for example, can cause quite the delay.
"Either move the garbage pales or go around them. If you get out of the truck 20-30 times on your route, usually you're pretty wet," says Risucci.
And during a storm like this one, Risucci will plow at least 4 times for each customer.
"So we'll go back, sleep for a couple of hours and try to get back out by 2 o'clock this afternoon and do a final clean up," says Risucci.
We also spoke with the Utica Department of Public Works. They say they've been working day and night plowing over 200 miles of road. And they're planning to do another sweep at 10pm.
And due to the snow, the city of Utica is still under a snow emergency. A parking ban will be reinstated tonight at 10pm. At this time, all vehicles must once again be off city streets.
