That's Supposed To Be Troy Polamalu
I guess this is "Supposed-To-Look-Like Day" at PSAMP. We had hockey earlier, now time to check out football.
To be honest, I have no idea what Little Big World is. I mean, I know it's a video game for Wii Playstation 3, but that's about it. I'll just link you to this video, where some dude shows you the custom characters he's made. The one above is supposed to be Troy Polamalu, you know, with the white face and black hands.
No idea why there's a voodoo doll pulling fake-Troy's hair, though. Last I checked, Chiefs RB Larry Johnson wasn't a voodoo doll.

Lawmakers across the country are looking into steps to ensure another tragedy like the shooting at a Newtown, Conn. elementary school never happens again.
In Colorado, gun control and violence is up for its first debate of the year in the state legislature.
A Senate committee is scheduled Monday to consider the first gun-related bill of the legislative term.
The measure would permit school officials to allow employees to carry concealed weapons. Under current law, an individual with a valid permit may not carry a concealed handgun at any public K-12 school.
Groups opposed to the measure plan to hold a rally outside the Capitol to talk about gun violence and measures to prevent it.

Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III
- For the band see: Black Obelisk (band)
The "Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III" is a black limestone Neo-Assyrian bas-relief sculpture from Nimrud (ancient Kalhu), in northern Iraq, commemorating the deeds of King Shalmaneser III (reigned 858-824 BC).
It is the most complete Assyrian obelisk yet discovered, and is historically significant because it is thought to display the earliest ancient depiction of a biblical figure - Jehu King of Israel. The traditional identification of "Yaw" as Jehu has been questioned by some scholars, who proposed that the inscription refers to another king, Jehoram of Israel.[1][2] Its reference to 'Parsua' is also the first known reference to the Persians.
Tribute offerings are shown being brought from identifiable regions and peoples. It was erected as a public monument in 825 BCE at a time of civil war. It was discovered by archaeologist Sir Austen Henry Layard in 1846 and is now in the British Museum. Replicas can be found at the Oriental Institute in Chicago, Illinois, at Harvard's Semitic Museum in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at the ICOR Library in the Semitic Department at The Catholic University of America, in Washington, District of Columbia, in Salem, Oregon, at Corban University's Prewitt/Allen Archaeological Museum and in the library of the Theological University of the Reformed Churches in Kampen, the Netherlands.
Height: 197.85 cm-(~6.5 ft). Width: 45.08 cm-(~1.5 ft).
The obelisk features twenty reliefs, five on each side. They depict five different subdued kings, bringing tribute and prostrating before the Assyrian king. From top to bottom they are: (1) Sua[disambiguation needed] of Gilzanu (in north-west Iran), (2) "Jehu of Bit Omri" (Jehu of the House of Omri), (3) an unnamed ruler of Musri (probably Egypt), (4) Marduk-apil-usur of Suhi (middle Euphrates, Syria and Iraq), and (5) Qalparunda of Patin (Antakya region of Turkey). Each scene occupies four panels around the monument and is described by a cuneiform script above them.
On the top and the bottom of the reliefs there is a long cuneiform inscription recording the annals of Shalmaneser III. It lists the military campaigns which the king and his commander-in-chief headed every year, until the thirty-first year of reign. Some features might suggest that the work had been commissioned by the commander-in-chief, Dayyan-Assur.
Second register[edit]
The second register from the top is thought to include the earliest surviving picture of a biblical figure. The name appears as mIa-ú-a mar mHu-um-ri-i. Rawlinson's original translation in 1850 seminal work "On the Inscriptions of Assyria and Babylonia" stated: "The second line of offerings are said to have been sent by Yahua, son of Hubiri, a prince of whom there is no mention in the annals, and of whose native country, therefore, I am ignorant"[3][4] Over a year later, a connection with the bible was made by Reverend Edward Hincks, who wrote in his diary on 21 August 1851: "Thought of an identification of one of the obelisk captives — with Jehu, king of Israel, and satisfying myself on the point wrote a letter to the Athenaeum announcing it".[5] Hincks' letter was published by Athenaeum on the same day, entitled "Nimrud Obelisk".[6] Hincks' identification is now the commonly held position by biblical archaeologists.
The name is now commonly read as "Yaw, son of Omri (Bit-Khumri", see House of Omri), understood by Hincks as the Biblical Jehu, king of Israel. The identification of "Yaw" as Jehu has been questioned, based on the fact that Jehu was not an Omride, as well as transliteration and chronology issues.[1][2]
The stele describes how Jehu brought or sent his tribute in or around 841 BCE.[7] Jehu severed Israel's alliances with Phoenicia and Judah, and became subject to Assyria. The caption above the scene, written in Assyrian cuneiform, can be translated:
"The tribute of Jehu, son of Omri: I received from him silver, gold, a golden bowl, a golden vase with pointed bottom, golden tumblers, golden buckets, tin, a staff for a king [and] spears."

This work demonstrates the clinical efficacy, tolerability and safety of patient-syngenic hESC induced with directed differentiation to gonadotrope cells. Hypothalamus transmits gonadotropin releasing factor to pituitary that sets off LH and FSH to Sertoli cell and Seminiferous tubule resulting Leydig cell to produces testosterone. This potential offers a rationale to evaluate hESCs to cure patients with vasculogenic impotency and to improve coital frequency in males.
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of iPSc directed to interfere T-cell activation to cure patients with psoriasis. Twenty subjects were enrolled. Each patient was administered iv with syngenic iPS. Those showing lower PASI score were considered cured. The study states that induced iPSCs are safe and impart significant clinical efficacy to cure patients with psoriasis.
This presentation describes in detail the development and establishment of a current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) facility for the purpose of manufacturing cell and tissue products intended for human use in a hospital setting.
Tooth regeneration is a biological technique to solving problems of tooth loss. The detection of various stem cells in unerupted tooth buds, dental pulp or bone marrow has provided opportunities for their management in dentin-pulp repair. However, these cells types are limited by: availability, invasiveness of extraction and in some cases limited proliferative capacity. Herein we hypothesized that endometrial adult stem cells could be induced into odontoblasts.
Since the conformation and symmetry may be equally important, we examine the order of nanorods on the surface to simulate the in vitro differentiation of stem cells and we revealed that stem cells respond differently to nanoscale features under the same conditions. Altering the orientation of nanotubular zinc oxide on the surface revealed changes in stem cell behaviour.
Human MSC transplantation significantly reduced the volume of experimental ischemic lesion in rat model. It also greatly stimulated stem and progenitor cell proliferation in the subventricular region and hippocampus and cell migration from these areas towards the ischemia site. Beneficial effects of MSC in rats with brain ischemia are likely to be associated with enhancement of host neural stem and progenitor cell proliferation and migration towards the affected area.
Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) is successfully used as a scaffold material for tissue engineering; however, it lacks functional groups that support cell adhesion. The laminin-derived peptide sequence SIKVAV is known to mimic the function of laminin, which is one of the biologically active proteins of the extracellular matrix. In this report, the adhesion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to SIKVAV-modified PHEMA was investigated.
In biochemical processes involving cultivation of animal cells, the supply of oxygen in culture medium is an extremely important parameter in the project of bioreactors and its operation. In this work, the global volumetric transfer coefficient of oxygen (KLa) is evaluated in a Taylor vortex flow bioreactor (TVFB) and a correlation of mass transfer, of this equipment, is proposed.

Everything was fine ;) The owner was friendly, There is a kitchen in the hostel and also an electric teapot at the room. In Copenhagen, the public transport is not easy to understand (many zones, etc.), but you can save money, if you walk from the hostel ca 15-20 minutes to train station Husum (it is in zone 2, bus station next to the hostel is I think in zone 3). --- About the "age group" under this review - I am 26, I travelled with my father (he is 54) - I had to choose only one age group.

Somewhere here, amid the stacks of vintage Marshall amps, tweed-covered Fender cabinets, and dozens of off-brand amplifier oddities, is the sound heard in rock and roll heaven. The grungy treble of Silvertone amps (the brand for Jack White of the White Stripes), the crystalline clarity of Supro (Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin), and the ear-popping power of Hi-Watt (Pete Townshend of the Who) represent a quality of tone that has become enshrined by several generations of rock fans—a canon of sound.
At least that's the way Dave Nachodsky and Joe Rinaolo hear it. The two—partners in Invisible Sound Studios, a recording outpost they started in 1986 in Rinaolo's basement, then moved to the Crown Cork & Seal complex in Highlandtown 16 years ago—have spent two decades amassing a collection of the machines that broadcast that sound. Now, they call their assemblage of more than 150 vintage amps the North American Guitar Amplifier Museum [NAGAM], an outpost of analog tubes and wires in a download-and-digital world.
NAGAM's amps date from the early 1940's and emit a warmth and edginess that modern digital sonic delivery systems can't touch—the ear-splitting pain and pleasure that rock guitarists live for.
"You see people walking around with iPods and these buds in their ears. That's not where it's at," Rinaolo says. "We can show somebody how to get that sound for real."
Like most small boutique museums, Rinaolo and Nachodsky don't offer a lot of hours for public viewing. But every six to eight weeks, they hold a "tone geek Sunday," offering the 50 or so visitors free beer and sandwiches, and letting them loose inside the studio. Guys who want to crank it to 11 on Marshalls can stay in a large space, while the chicken-pickin' country players and jazzbos can hide in a smaller, walled-off room.
"The studio and amps are all a part of the same thing. We're making a museum built around tone," says Rinaolo.
Not that it's always used to its fullest. "We'll hear stuff like, 'Man, I want to sound just like Jimmy Page.' Then, they say they're bringing in this Peavey Classic amp," a device that will get them nowhere near Page's signature sound, Rinaolo says. "We can get them there with what we have."
"Of course," interjects the more laid-back Nachodsky, "that doesn't really help them play like Jimmy Page."

Venable, Padres agree $2,675,000, 1-year deal
The Associated PressOutfielder Will Venable and the San Diego Padres have avoided salary arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract worth $2,675,000, a raise of $1.2 million.
The 30-year-old hit .264 last year with nine homers and 45 RBIs.
Seven Padres remain in arbitration: shortstop Everth Cabrera; third baseman Chase Headley; right-handers Edinson Volquez and Luke Gregerson; left-handers Clayton Richard and Joe Thatcher; and catcher John Baker.

We wanted an adjustable height stool, without a back, to tuck under the counter when not in use. These are perfect for us. The seat is comfortable and the adjustment works smoothly. The leather is nice and the chrome looks good and is easy to clean. But those darn bolts that attach the seat to the post are too long. It's an easy fix, just go to your local hardware store and ask for a 6 mm bolt with 1.0 threads that is 10 mm long. Swap out the bolts on the stool and you're done.
I loved the look of these stools but was leary after reading about the problems with the long bolts showing through the seat top. Thanks to another review though the problem was easily fixed! I just went down to the local hardware store and asked for Metric 6.00 x 1 x 10mm bolts which were in stock. They were even conveniently packaged in quantities of 4 - the exact number needed per stool! Since I bought two sets of stools, I bought 4 packets for less than $4 total, headed home, and swapped out the screws in seconds. (Do yourself a favor and buy the bolts while you're waiting for the shipment to arrive and you'll be able to put them together correctly the first time.) So now, the stools are perfect! The brown leather is soft and detailed nicely with contrast stitching (although I had to trim a few threads that were too long) and the chrome base pedestal is a good quality and polishes nicely. The padding in the seats is a little thin but they're still comfy. And this is my first experience with backless stools so I was a little worried that one might easily topple backwards if not careful but my concerns were quickly put to rest the moment I sat down. Even at the maximum height, these stools are plenty stable. If I had to be critical (after the bolts are replaced), I'd say the foot rests are perhaps a tad too close to the seating surface. I'm 5'11" and with my feet positioned directly in front of me, the seating posture feels a little formal. However, after I made my first drink, I sat down without thinking about it, my feet landed on the sides of the foot rest and my legs fell into a wider stance. This was natural and made the seating posture much more comfy! To sum it up, don't let the long bolts stop you from buying these stools! They're great!
The padding is so thin on these stools that the for assembly bolts show through. So now, the leather has 4 "impression marks" in the surface. Also, you feel the four bolts on you bottom when you sit on the, Granted, I am a 200lb man, but I didn't think there was a weight limit on the chairs. In short, the padding is so thin that if you have ANY weight to you, you will be sitting on four bolts. Thy look great, assembled easily, and the lift mechanism works great. So, if you only plan on sitting on them occasionally or not at all, they look great.
I have similar stools from overstock with a wood seat so I when I purchased these, I was expecting similar quality. The problem with these is that the base is not heavy enough to keep it stable while my kids climb up to the island seating. It would be fine for adults to sit on, but don't recommend it for kids. I ended up keeping them b/c I didn't want to deal with sending them back, and I'm using them at a lower table, but I still worry about them tipping over. The color is a chocolate brown and the leather seat is soft. Based on the light weight base, I would not buy them again.
I love the stools! Quick to assemble and my kids can adjust them very easily. The only reason it didn't get a five stars was because once assembled and sat on for a bit you can kind of see the dents of the four screws under the stool through the seat. I do like them very much and bought two others.
We love our new barstools! They don't take up room in the narrow space we have, they are comfortable and they look great!
Great product for the price. Read the other reviews about the screws being to long so I purchased the recommended shorter screws and they worked perfectly. Very happy with my purchase and the prompt delivery.
The seats were not sewn in what appeared to be very good quality thread. I purchased 6 of these chairs and 3 of them have come undon after only 2 months of use. I would not recommend buying these unless it's just for looks and not actual use.
Stools arrived very well packed and were very simple to assemble. Do not see the problem mentioned in prior reviews with the seat bolts so maybe mfgr listened and fixed?? ONE SLIGHTLY ODD THING to get used to: when you sit on the seat it initially sinks down several inches because of the pressurized cylinder that the seat sits on. OK once you expect it, but does cause a moment of with most people. Not ideal, but all in all an OK product.
love these stools. easy to assemble. Have seen them in a few stores, but only in black and white. Love the brown leather.

Baltimore Cupcake Company...
I am usually the who suggests BCC when people ask for a cupcake/dessert recommendation. However, my wife just had a really weird/bad experience there- she dropped in to pick up 15 cupcakes to take to a BBQ, and was lectured in a really obnoxious tone that she "really needs to call ahead for such an order" because BCC is "soo busy."
Am I right to be annoyed? If your business is cupcakes, is it too absurd to assume that you can handle a person coming in to buy a dozen or so cupcakes without getting attitude? Shouldn't you be happy that people want to buy a dozen at a time? My wife didn't say anything b/c she wanted the cupcakes w/o spit on them, but seriously, what's with the attitude? You get written up in Baltimore Magazine, and you turn nasty? Not cool BCC, not cool....
I went into the new Annapolis location of the Baltimore Cupcake Company just yesterday. The ambience is adorable, but the choice of cupcakes scant - which I could have lived with. However, when we decided that we'd like two Key Lime cupcakes, the young lady working there (who only had about five single cupcakes to actually sell), told me she could not remove the cupcake from it's six pack and if I wanted one of those, I'd have to buy the $18.00 six pack! I do PR for a living, and have my own business. I though either this policy needs to change or you can expect a lot of people to walk away. It would be different if they were lined up outside the door and various flavors of cupcakes abounded, but that was not the case. I couldn't stop talking about what poor hospitality and business sense that is. I will say that I had the vanilla cupcake and while it was sweet, I did think it was quite good. Not sure I'll go back, though; not loving the attitude.
I went to Baltimore Cupcake Compnay today to see if they were as bad as most people here say that are.... And you're all right - the cupcakes were horrible, and the service was even worse.
I got a Cookies and Cream (vanilla cake with Oreo crumbs in batter, vanilla frosting topped with Oreo crumbs) and a Coconut (vanilla/vanilla topped with shredded coconut).
Both cakes were greasy and had a large, hard crumb. They seemed stale. The Oreo cupcake tasted strongly of almond. The frostings on both were horrible - butter with LOADS of confectioners sugar and not a hint of vanilla to be found.
Better cupcakes can be found at Safeway. Or with a boxed mix.
And then there's the service. When I walked in, the girl in the counter didn't even LOOK at me. When I said hi to her and smiled, she looked at me and then looked back at the cupcakes. When I asked a few questions about the flavors (of which there weren't many left - there were lots of chocolate/chocolate, vanilla/vanilla, vanilla/chocolate left, but the special ones were almost all gone), she answered me very curtly.
At $2.50 per cupcake, I should not only get better service, but a decent cupcake. None of those things were found at BCC.
I've had Charm City Cupcakes, and, while they're not amazing, they're better than BCC and at least the girl who runs the place is nice.
Bottom line: I'll stick with baking my own.
re: cpfeifer
I heard about that (in the Sun's Dining @ Large blog), and I'm not too thrilled - I've been to both Cakelove and Love Cafe and I thought the cakes and frostings were bad.
I'm really tired of people putting bad buttercream (i.e., chalky buttercream made with butter and confec. sugar) on bad (read: dry, overly dense crumb, or sometimes greasy) cupcakes. I'm from NYC, where there are a gajillion cupcakeries (and cake shops) and there are but a handful of quality cupcakes to be found, so it's clear to me that most cupcakeries sell mediocre products and get away with it because of the sheer novelty of the cupcake.
I've had enough; I'm gonna start selling cupcakes out of my tiny apartment! :D
I think Soups on at Rose's Cookies has the best cupcakes in town! I've had every one but my favorites are the Carrot Cake and the Yellow with Coconut Frosting. They are super moist and the staff there are very friendly. Located in Hampden. The soups and salads are good there too. Very reasonably priced
We live in the neighborhood and closed on our house on my birthday this spring. My husband had called ahead to reserve a special birthday celebration treat to eat on the floor of our new, empty home. (We moved from out of town, so this really was my "birthday cake.")
When we got to BCC, they acted as if they had never heard the request and were not very friendly about it. I basically got a chocolate chunk cupcake with a drink umbrella thrown on top, that I think they charged an extra $8 or so for. $11 for a (IMO) dry cupcake with some questionable customer service is not a good deal. We walk by the shop every day and haven't been back. It's a shame.
And if we're throwing out good cupcake recipes, I think Amy Sedaris' vanilla cupcake recipe is the gold standard of cupcake recipes. I make mine a little more interesting with some dried lavender flowers mixed into the batter.
All right, listen up. BBC is way overrated. I am bmorecupcake so I would know. Better off with a duncan hines cake mix and frosting. Better cupcakes can be had at cross street market or lexington market. Charm City Cupcakes is better than BBC, no doubt, but they do things like put lemon in their yellow cake which can be a turn off, e.g. with chocolate frosting. But the girl who works there is very nice and loves what she does. I make the best cupcakes in Baltimore anyway, but you gotta know me to try 'em, haha! :P
If you need to order cupcakes, I would go with Cakes by Cynthia. She made the cupcakes for my wedding. I kept the cupcakes for my wedding simple, though. Cookies and cream (chocolate cake/buttercream with oreo frosting), yellow/chocolate, yellow/strawberry, chocolate/chocolate, but everyone loved them, even the haters who thought cupcakes are just for kids. For large orders she will deliver. She is also affordable and bakes out of her home. Before she was baking in Baltimore but I think she moved out to the suburbs now.
re: bmorecupcake
Yes, I recommend Cynthia for cupcakes and regular cakes. She has a store just off Route 50 on Whitehall Road in Annapolis, before you get to the Bay Bridge. It's in that large somewhat-vacated outlet mall, where the Mikasa used to be. I'm especially fond of her caramel and chocolate layer cakes (which they do sell by the half-cake).
re: bordeauxfan
Actually, I'm pretty sure that's a different Cynthia. "My" Cynthia used to live in Fells Point, but I believe she has now moved to the Belair-ish area. She bakes out of her home, but she has been very professional every time I order from her. You can reach her at: 410-676-1485.
re: bmorecupcake
THAT Cynthia is now providing pastries to the Open Door Cafe in Bel Air.
re: bmorecupcake
Well I'm confused. If you are BCC and not BBC (? which I'm not sure what that even is) and you believe your cupcakes are indeed overrated and we're "better off with a duncan hines cake mix and frosting" why are you in business? Surely you would have faith in your own product and not be pushing CCC or anyones else? As a general rule why support someone who won't even support themselves? Or did i miss something here?...
Wow - I just went back to BCC last Friday and loved the cupcake I got (key lime flavor), it was so much better than any cupcakes I had when it first opened. I was just going to post about how much better it had gotten.
The owner is very nice - I've met her before and I really doubt that she would say anything like that to a customer. And besides, they've opened a new store (somewhere south of the city I think) and I think she's there most of the time.
i'm curious who told her that, the owner, or an hourly employee. if it was the owner, they really need to check themselves as far as their customer service skills. i'm betting it was the latter, though.
re: lulubijou
I just went in yesterday to check out what they had and at 3 p.m., they were almost out of all flavors. I went in frequently when they first opened and the cupcakes have definitely gotten smaller since they first opened and they aren't nearly as good as they used to be. It's a shame because it's a great concept. I'm sorry to hear that they didn't appreciate the business you were sending them.
re: aussiewonder
There's also Charm City Cupcakes. I tried some of their offerings at Taste of Baltimore last year and found them to be superior to BCC. Not the bestest ever, but quite good. I don't think they have a store front yet (though back in October they said one was coming); they operate out of the old Women's Industrial Exchange. But I do think you can buy their cupcakes at the cafe that's above the WIE.

I've recently been branching out and trying new mascara's. As you know, I'm pretty faithful to my MAC products and that hasn't changed. I first tried MAC's Zoom Fast Black Lash. I liked it. Can't say I loved it, but it got the job done. It does have a carbon black pigment in it, which I liked. But I also felt like it didn't last very long. I was in need of a new tube quicker than I had hoped. Then I switched to using the Opulash Optimum Black, that's what I use now and I love it. I'm really picky about my mascara wands. I prefer a thicker brush, and by the photos above you can clearly see the difference in the two. It lasts all day (15 hours to be exact) and lengthens them pretty well. It's supposed to give more expansion and curl. I'm the type of person who puts it on pretty thick and this mascara makes it much easier to do so.
Both of these mascaras can be found at MAC for $15.00 each
I did more of a subtle take on this look. Instead of using yellows I used golds, I'm ok with how it came out. I used;
The Goldenair eye pencil was used to achieve the gold color. Didn't use eye shadow at all for that. I used the pencil and then the Dazzleray pigment on top to give it a bit more shimmer. The photo above gives a list of items that the pro's used to achieve this look, I didn't use any of them and still came out with a decent outcome.
It's been so long, I apologize. I swear I haven't abandoned this blog lol Yesterday I did a little experimenting. Well not exactly, but I went out of my comfort zone. I always always always use liner on both my top and bottom lid. I just love a full eye and I feel that it just looks better on me. But I felt like being different and trying just my usual liquid liner on top. It didn't look as bad as I thought, a little weird, but I didn't mind it.
I used Loreal's Carbon Black Lineur Intense.
It's perfect for those of you who may have difficulty applying liquid liner because of it's felt tip applicator. Felt tip is a MUST if you're just starting out with liquid. It allows you to create as thin a line as you want, or as bold a line as you want. It's about $6.99-9.99 depending on where you buy it. You can find it anywhere Loreal is sold; Wal Mart, Target, Ulta, etc. I love this stuff, definitely recommend it.
About a week ago I bought the MAC Pro Longwear Foundation and I promised a quick review. I am so glad that I bought it. I was skeptical at first because I was sure that it would just make my face even oilier than it is and I'd have wasted $40. But that wasn't the case at all. I put it on before work everyday around 9 AM. Most nights I go out after work so I'm not getting home until around midnight or after and I barely need to touch it up! My lovely lady at my local MAC store told me that these typically run dark, so your color might actually be lighter than you think. Make sure you try a couple until you find your match.
All you need is 2 squirts (I use more like 1 and a half) and apply evenly with a brush, not a sponge. Brushes give the best results! I was told to use brush #130 and I recommend it to the fullest, but if not any similar brush will do
After you've applied it evenly, set it with a powder. No need for a thick coat, just a light sweep over the face. I use MAC's Mineralize Skinfinnish Natural
And after that you're done! It works wonders. My skin is naturally oily, those who can relate know that no matter what you'll probably have to use blot powder at least once a day. But it definitely lives up to it's name, because it lasts a very long time. They're made to last 15 hours! I took a 3 hour nap today, face rolled all over my pillow and it still looks great lol. Definitely recommend!! So far I love the Pro LongWear Collection. I've got the foundation, I have the lipcreme (will do a review on that if you like) that I absolutely adore, all that's next to try is the concealer!

Abstract: Glioblastomas (GBM) are one of the most malignant adult primary brain tumors. Through decades of research using various model systems and GBM patients, we have gained considerable insights into the mechanisms regulating GBM pathogenesis, but have mostly failed to significantly improve clinical outcome. For the most part GBM heterogeneity is responsible for this lack of progress. Here, we have discussed sources of cellular and microenvironmental heterogeneity in GBMs and their potential regulation through microRNA mediated mechanisms. We have focused on the role of individual microRNAs (miRNA) through their specific targets and miRNA mediated RNA-RNA interaction networks with the potential to influence various aspects of GBM heterogeneity including tumor neo-vascularization. We believe a better understanding of such mechanisms for regulation of GBM pathogenesis will be instrumental for future therapeutic options.

YouTube May Remove Expose of Planned Parenthood, Conservative Eyeblast.tv Won't
This should come as no surprise to anyone who knows the political leanings of YouTube and its past of banning controversial conservative videos.
Here are the details from LifeNews:
The popular video sharing web site YouTube is threatening to censor a new video that exposes how a Planned Parenthood center in New jersey aided and assisted actors in an undercover investigation with sexual trafficking of minors.
The video has received national attention and more than 230,000 plays at YouTube but the video site claims a "privacy violation" occurred and is demanding that Live Action, the pro-life group that conducted the sting operation, take it down. The group also released a second videoshowing more sex trafficking coverup at a Virginia Planned Parenthood abortion clinic.
All of the videos put out by Live Action on their Planned Parenthood stings are up on Eyeblast.tv right now including the video YouTube is threatening to pull off their site. You can see them all, including the one YouTube is threatening to remove, over at Eyeblast.tv's blog, The Blast.
We've also embedded the edited video of the January 13 sting at the Perth Amboy, N.J. Planned Parenthood below:
For full disclosure, Eyeblast.tv is a division of the Media Research Center (MRC), the parent company of NewsBusters.org.

Compare the Planned Parenthood sting to the ABC AZ Immigration
Submitted by Gary Hall on Thu, 02/03/2011 - 7:34pm.
Quite the contrast here - these two videos - these two efforts. In this one, the sting op is conducted by catching the employees of Planned Parenthood actually engaging in illegal and disgusting and immoral activities. Here, we find that much of the national MSM, and liberal pundits, either ignore the news entirely, or decide to use it to attack the conservative side of the isle - not those at fault. What we find, is censorship - the need for the MSM to keep this out of the hearts and minds of the broad public, as it would be damaging to the Democrat party and liberals in general.
In the second video, ABC Sets Up Sting Operation to Find Racism in AZ Immigration Law, posted by NB's Scott Whitlock today, we see that ABC's 20/20 primetime show is willing to set up a sting op based on a complete misrepresentation - a fabrication - a lie - of the AZ immigration bill, in order to promote hatred, political division in the country. Their prime target (crosshairs intended), naturally, is conservatives - the want to do damage to the Republican party.
Just the daily by our national MSM.

Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
I love the Galaxy Note 2. It's a powerhouse, it feels slim despite it's giant dimensions and it does everything I need it to do without the slightest hiccup. I'm new to Android but not new to hacking and in my case for many, many years, Jailbreaking (iOS). So when I got my Galaxy S3, I rooted it and installed several custom ROMs and loved it. It actually sped up the phone and increased the functionality of the device.
Now with the Note 2 I decided to root it and give a few custom ROMs a try. Rooting was easy and installation of new ROMs was a breeze but I've noticed that I've begun to miss TouchWiz and some of the functionality that I've lost in the process, namely the S-pen features. I've been enjoying AOKP's JB 4.2.1 for a week or so now and I love the look of stock JB. But it's taking me more time to get to where I need to go within the OS than it did with touchwiz. Also, I never used the S-pen that much but it was very convenient when I needed to jot down a quick note or impress some onlooker. And it seems crazy to me that a device such as the Note 2 that was designed around the use of the S-pen, that other ROMs wouldn't include it in their system. You loose, what, a third, maybe half of the functionality of the device by losing the built in features of touchwiz?
This is why I'll be going back to TouchWiz. I love changing as much as I can about the phone to really tailor it to my needs and aesthetic wants, but sometimes it's just nice to not mess with it and use it how the manufacturer or developer intended it to be used.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
Appreciate your post about rooting the Note II and providing details around losing Touchwiz...S-pen functionality.
This is my first android device and haven't seen the need to root as it is performing to my liking as is.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!! - 02-21-2013, 12:35 AM #3
Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
If you guys want Spen functionality and want custom rom i would suggest Cleanrom, it is smoother than stock has alot of customization and has stripped most of the bloatware out.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
I'm running CleanROM AT&T SE, and it doesn't lose any of the S-Pen functionality or remove Touchwhiz. It runs so much better than the stock ROM that there is absolutely no way I could go back. Battery life is greatly improved using it as well.
The CleanROM ACE version is also a great choice if you don't want to to lose S-Pen functionality or Touchwhiz. Both ROMs and the 23 toggle mod and ability to basically use any app with multiview.
I have tried them both and have never had a single issue with either and I recently rooted and flashed CleanROM AT&T SE to a phone for a buddy of mine and all he has talked about since then is how much of a difference it made battery life.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
The 23 toggle mod allows a total of up to 23 toggles in the notification screen and allows them to be arranged in what ever order you'd like. Here's a link with more info:
As for the battery life, I easily get 2 full days out of one charge, sometimes more. Plus I usually have 7-9 hours of screen being on, never got the much when stock. I have no idea what all has been changed to improve it but its been great.
And screen shots of battery usage for today:

What's so wrong with the stock rom that made you want to change is what I ask...
Cleanrom is good, yes, but what it offers is nothing you can't install yourself with root access.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
I wonder if anyone here know that you can disable the apps in the app manager list. I have a few tmobile apps that I never use and I went to their app page and click disable, no question asked. If disabled app causing problem, you just go back and enable it. That the beauty of ICS/JB, it allow you have control over what app can be running.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
UPDATE: So...I installed CleanRom ATT SE 1.2 and, so far, I'm quite pleased. Here are some of the advantages I see using this ROM over stock.
1) Adding any app to the multi view window. This is huge for me. Countless times I'll be trying to schedule trips for events in my email or Facebook and now I can have any travel app open along side my calendar or email. YouTube and Big Oven, Facebook and Pandora, Press and reddit. Awesome.
2) It seems faster and better battery life. I'm only two days into the new rom so I can't say for sure but initial impressions seem to confirm this.
3) It's still, for the most part, stock, only better.
It's weird but my hacker habits have changed over the years. I've built my own computers, I've jailbroken every iteration of iPhone and rooted and hacked countless Android devices. But lately I'm becoming more and more a proponent of stock firmware. I like to see how the manufacturer intended their devices to be used. That being said, I hate bloatware, thus I still root everything the first day. As far as everything else goes, keep it stock or keep it close to stock.
CleanRom (any version) gives the best of stock and more. Very pleased so far.

Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
I unlocked bootloader and was running cleanrom 3.5 on my note 2 for months but I hated that I lost allshare cast in the process and if you notice all of your templates that are meant to be used with the spen are gone you have the basics but most of the templates are removed also I ended up deciding to go back to stock and than after I did so I also recived the exynos exploit patch which we are suppose to be able to work around and still root and I was unable to so I went into odin to recovery my stock recovery and it failed and now im in between a halfway rooted back to stock slash the phone seems bricked does anyone know anyway to work around my issue .The only thing I can think of is that ota not only pathched up but will not let you go back to stock recovery vralljb ..Does any pro out there know what I can do otherwise im in the hole about $400 on this device I definitely feel all hope is lost and I have done my fairshare of rooting this is not new to me ive never bricked I get a message on my screen saying attempting to do a firmware upgrade please visit kies for support
Re: Why I'm going back to stock ROM.
and to c mathews I just came from stock and was getting about 9 on screen time and about 2 days stock and on cleanrom I was getting 5 hours on screen time and maybe a day and half of battery life so go figure and I have everything enabled the only thing I would change about stock is having all apps enabled in muti touch dont care for mobile hotspot much I use my internet here at the house how often do I really whip out my phone to use it as a mobile hotspot never this phone is great its a feaking computer anything I need to do on a computer I can do on this beast and with all of these kickass launchers you can get the look and feel of aosp or whatever floats your fanny ..I wonder if there is a way to enable all apps muti touch without rooting the phone ? Unless your just board easy and a flashaholic addict find one stable rom and stick with it or dont root and enjoy what you have if your new to rooting I would highly reccomend you get some help being this phone is a little more complex and there are several stages in order to root and unlock bootloader and than flash another rom

The House is expected to vote today on a budget bill that funds agriculture, food safety and nutrition programs, cutting over $2.6 billion from those programs. But Republicans balked at extra cuts offered by GOP budget hawks, blocking a number of other budget reduction plans in debate this week.
On Wednesday, farm state Republicans led the rebellion, objecting to plans to cut $167 million in farm subsidies as part of this one budget measure for next year.
The plan would have saved money by blocking the payment of agricultural crop subsidies to farmers who have incomes above $250,000 per year.
Rep. Frank Lucas (R-OK), the Chairman of the House Agriculture Committee, objected to that provision - and another one which would have saved money by reducing cotton subsidies. Both were pulled from the bill because of Lucas' procedural objections.
The objections of farm state lawmakers was yet another reminder that while it seems easy enough to find ways to cut the budget, it doesn't always translate into actual cuts and budget savings.
That was also evident by votes on budget cutting amendments from various GOP lawmakers, who pressed for a series of amendments to cut even deeper than the plan offered by Republican leaders on this one budget bill for next year.
"The American people have made it loud and clear that they want spending cuts and debt reduction to be Washington's foremost priorities," Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) said, as he alone laid out 11 different amendments to the bill, designed to cut $2 billion.
By Wednesday afternoon, the House had voted on a half dozen of Broun's budget cutting plans, easily rejecting all six.
In fact, the best Broun or any other Republican could do was to muster 125 votes for one of his plans, as at times more than half of all House Republicans joined with Democrats to reject these extra budget cutting plans.
It was much like votes earlier this month for an across the board cut in the Homeland Security budget, where just 110 lawmakers voted for $4 billion in savings, as many Republicans again displayed their distaste for extra cuts.
Lots of talk about budget cutting - but not seemingly much of an appetite for more.
"We just have to stop spending money we don't have," Broun argued in vain on the House floor.
At one point, Broun got into a dustup with the top Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, who verbally rebuked Broun for backing cuts that Rep. Norm Dicks (D-WA) said would "do harm" to Americans.
Dicks chided Broun - a doctor - for violating the Hippocratic Oath that says 'do no harm.'
"I resent the fact that you accuse me of doing harm," Broun said, as he used a parliamentary objection to try to expunge the remarks of Dicks from the record of debate.
After some back and forth, Dicks backed down and revised his words so "they wouldn't be close to an insult."
The snippy debate over the last two days on this bill was yet another reminder that while lots of people in both parties talk big about cutting trillions of dollars or saving money in all areas of the budget, finding agreement on how to do that is like pulling teeth.
It isn't easy, and everything about it is very, very political.

Mike Hamrick cannot sit around and pull his hair out over what might happen in the next year or two with conference realignment.
For starters, Marshall's athletic director has a fair amount of hair to yank, particularly for a fifty-something male. Second, he is in the same boat as dozens of other ADs - powerless to alter the thinking of the Big Ten, which wields the opening tile in the next game of conference dominoes.
His job right now, most of all, is to make the Thundering Herd program as attractive as possible, in case the school wants to (or has to) shop itself around.
"You wait, and then you react," Hamrick said. "As far as Marshall is concerned, what we're trying to do is get our program as good as we get, so if change does occur you're in a situation where you have to do something different, you can sell yourself.
"Are we in that position now? I'm not sure if we are, but we're working hard to get there."
Hamrick was across the country when Conference USA was the league most bombarded by the Atlantic Coast Conference-triggered realignment. As athletic director at Nevada-Las Vegas, he abetted that - he chaired the Mountain West Conference's expansion committee, which eventually added Texas Christian.
That was the next-to-last move in the C-USA shakeup, with the league replacing TCU with Texas-El Paso. Before then, the league added Central Florida, Marshall, Tulsa, Rice and Southern Methodist to come to 12 teams.
That was in response to losing Louisville, Cincinnati, DePaul, Marquette and South Florida to the heavily raided Big East, Charlotte and Saint Louis to the Atlantic 10 and Army to football independence.
Football-wise, that earthquake seemed to deepen the division between the so-called BCS conferences and the rest of what used to be called Division I-A.
Yes, there was the increased access that led to Boise State "busting the BCS" twice, but only the Mountain West has made a credible case for a seventh league landing a BCS automatic bid.
But really, the big prize is joining one of the six BCS automatic qualifying leagues, and several schools are ready to pounce on a Big Ten-sparked opportunity.
If you're reading this, you've probably seen a zillion permutations of what the Big Ten will do, and its ripple effect all the way to the Western Athletic and Sun Belt conferences.
As the thinking goes, the Big Ten will get whomever it wants and will expand to 12, 14 or 16 teams. Does it relieve the Big East of Pittsburgh, Syracuse and/or Rutgers? Does it relieve the Big 12 of Nebraska, Oklahoma and/or Missouri? Or does it rope in Texas or Notre Dame, the biggest prizes of all?
Whatever happens (unless the Big Ten just lures Notre Dame, or does nothing), a free-for-all will ensue, as happened in 2003. Conference USA will no doubt feel it, perhaps losing schools, splitting up or even imploding.
A chunk of its schools fancy themselves as BCS-league candidates, including:
Memphis carries the mighty corporate backing of FedEx, which is bigger than Elvis in that city. If you don't believe that, consider this: Memphis International Airport has been the world's busiest for cargo for 18 consecutive years, with FedEx planes jamming the nighttime skies.
It may be no coincidence, either, that FedEx has pulled its name off the Orange Bowl after a two-decade sponsorship.
Any league that adds Memphis wins a basketball gold mine, NCAA infractions history notwithstanding. The Tigers drew an average crowd of 16,500 in the rebuilding year of 2009-10, and their fans react to the slightest developments surrounding the program.
But basketball tends to take a back seat in the realignment process. The Tigers are down in football, which isn't unusual. The week of the Marshall game, they had to practice at a high school field when their on-campus facilities became waterlogged, much to their embarrassment.
The Tigers could land in a BCS league and still suffer the poaching of local football talent by all those surrounding Southeastern Conference schools.
Enrollment is comparable to that of Ohio State. There is an on-campus stadium, entering its fourth season. The indoor practice building is slightly older and the basketball arena is slightly newer. It's a top-20 TV market, in the middle of a hotbed for football talent. Financial commitment doesn't seem to be an issue, as George O'Leary's $1 million-plus salary illustrates.
So if the Big East or ACC needs an addition, what's not to like?
It may be as simple as UCF somehow failing to establish itself as much as Interstate 4 rival South Florida, which launched its football program 18 years after UCF did. It could be political, as UCF is overshadowed by Florida, Florida State, Miami and, recently, USF.

When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.
Shocked yet thrilled by Grey's singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family—Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey's secrets and explores her own dark desires.
Erotic, amusing, and deeply moving, the Fifty Shades Trilogy is a tale that will obsess you, possess you, and stay with you forever.
This book is intended for mature audiences.
