Innate and Adaptive Immune Mechanisms in Cytokine-Mediated Regression of Mouse Kidney and Liver Cancers
The mechanisms by which the immune system can mediate tumor regression in vivo are complex and incompletely understood. Successful induction of cytokine-induced tumor regression may depend on a complex interplay between critical elements of the innate immune system (dendritic cells and NK or NK T cells) and classical elements of the adaptive immune response such as CD4+ or CD8+ T cells, and the ability to mitigate the immunosuppressive effects of T regulatory (Tregs), myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSC), and their active mediators In particular, successfully engaged innate mechanisms may trigger inflammatory events in the tumor microenvironment that, in turn, minimize the effects of Tregs and MDSC, resulting in overall instructive signals for the development of beneficial adaptive responses. In this regard, we have focused our efforts on several approaches:
Specifically, we are studying the immune-regulating and cancer therapeutic potential of IL-12, IL-18, and the role of IFN-gamma in the innate and adaptive immune response; approaches for coordinating the beneficial effects of innate and adaptive responses with a mitigation of Treg and MDSC-mediated inhibitory effects, via stimulation of the CD40 receptor on antigen presenting cells in concert with IL-2 or IL-15 treatment; opportunities for simultaneous engagement of anti-angiogenesis and immune-based strategies for cancer treatment; and analyzing unique microenvironmental dynamics and influences in the lungs and liver as a model for organ-specific immunotherapy.
In addition, the liver, lungs and kidneys serve as unique model organs to understand the mechanisms by which parenchymal cells and leukocytes communicate in different microenvironments. These studies have relevance to understanding the regulation and optimization of development of innate immune responses and their relationship to metastasis formation and disease-induced inflammation. IL-12 and IL-18 are potent immunoregulatory cytokines for natural killer (NK), NKT, and T cells, and they induce beneficial antitumor activities in numerous experimental models. Our results have shown that although both IL-12 and IL-18 induced potent IFN-gamma-dependent anti-metastatic effects, they have very distinctive effects on the NKT/NK subsets in different organs. In addition to studying the different immunoregulatory effects of cytokines on NKT and NK cells, we are also studying the interactions between these two subsets and the relative roles each plays in antitumor defenses.
Most recently, we have applied our findings primarily to mouse models of renal cell cancer (RCC) to develop new immunotherapeutic approaches for the treatment of cancer, and translated them to human clinical trials. We have also developed oncogene-driven models of liver cancer and are using them to study inflammation-driven events in the tumor initiation to progression continuum, and as a complement to our transplantable mouse RCC models for the development of new immunotherapeutic approaches to cancer treatment.
Using the Sleeping Beauty-mediated, in vivo genetic modification of hepatocytes with dysregulated AKT, MET, and β-catenin genes, we developed reproducible, clinically-relevant, subtype-specific models of oncogene-initiated hepatic cancers and are using them to determine how selected innate immune cells of the liver microenvironment respond to the dysregulation of specific oncogenic pathways. Gene expression profiling studies have correlated an inflammatory gene signature with a propensity for metastatic potential in HCC patients. These findings suggest that a better understanding of the role of the immune system may inform new strategies for early intervention/prevention and treatment through the use of immunotherapy in combination with selected molecularly targeted agents.
The overall goal of our studies is to provide new insights into complex immune interactions in vivo and develop preclinical approaches for the use of immunotherapy, alone and in combination with other molecularly targeted strategies, for translation to clinical trials in cancer patients.

The microprocessor-based on-screen display (OSD) controls let you adjust a variety of image settings. Setting up the monitor Setting up the monitor consists of two procedures: attaching the base and connecting the monitor cables. If you are setting up your computer for the first time, see the setup poster for more information about connecting additional peripheral devices. To attach the base: To connect the power and video cables: Removing the base To remove the base: Starting the monitor To start the monitor:
Adjusting monitor settings This monitor features an on-screen display (OSD) that lets you adjust and save contrast, brightness, and other settings for the display image.
To adjust the monitor settings: OSD options Software controls Adjusting the color depth and screen resolution are two of the most basic monitor settings you may need to change. Adjusting the color depth Color depth is the number of colors the video card uses. Most images look best displayed with the maximum number of colors available. Windows lets you choose from several color depth settings for the monitor. We recommend that you use the 32-bit True Color setting or the highest setting available at all times. If the color in your images seems "false" or "jumpy," especially after you have played a game or run a video-intensive program, check the color depth setting and return it to 32-bit True Color, if necessary. To change the color depth:
Adjusting the screen resolution You can change the screen resolution to a size you prefer. For example, you can increase the resolution to fit more icons on your desktop, or you can decrease the resolution to make reading and identifying objects on the monitor easier. The higher the resolution, the smaller individual components of the screen (such as icons and menu bars) appear. To change the screen resolution:
Power management ENERGY STAR As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, Gateway has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. This monitor complies with the EPA's International ENERGY STAR Program, which is a program designed to encourage manufacturers of computer equipment to build circuitry into their products to reduce energy consumption during time of non-use. Energy declaration When connected to a computer that supports the Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) Protocol, this monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will then enter the Active Off mode (different from total shut down). In the Active Off mode the power LED will still show amber. Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels: To "wake" the monitor when it is in Active Off mode, move your mouse or press any keyboard key. Access the power management options in the Control Panel to change the period of time after which the monitor enters these low power states. Maintenance
Troubleshooting If you have problems with the monitor, the information in this troubleshooting section may help you solve them. No picture
Picture is scrambled If the picture is scrambled or does not look right, you can reset the monitor to its default video mode and resolution settings. To reset the monitor settings:
Display colors are wrong
Picture is fuzzy Adjust the contrast and brightness controls to improve the display image. For more information, see Adjusting monitor settings. Picture bounces, jitters, or has waves
If none of these suggestions solves the problem, try plugging the monitor into another outlet, preferably one on a different circuit. Picture has shadows or "ghosts"
Color is not uniform Make sure that the monitor warms up for at least 30 minutes before making a final judgment about color uniformity.
Image is not sized or centered correctly Use the size and position controls to adjust the image. For instructions on how to change the monitor settings, see Adjusting monitor settings. Image cannot be adjusted full screen Some video modes used by the monitor produce images that cannot be adjusted all the way out to the bezel edge (the edge where the screen glass and monitor casing meet).

Display Content from Random child Page (based on Count)
16 July 2009 at 10:37am Last edited: 16 July 2009 10:39am
Hi there,
I really need help here before I go mad!
On the left hand side of all my templates I want to display a small box with a random client comment.
In the CMS I have set up a "Holder" page with the URL/ID "client-feedback-items". (This is a blank page)
The children of this holder use a page type which has three custom fields:
Quote (text)
Name (text)
Organisation (text)I am using the following naming convention for each new child page: clientFeedback1, clientFeedback2, clientFeedback3 and so on.
The pages themselves are never displayed within the site structure (they are hidden from menu and search). Instead I want to display elements from them on most other pages (randomly picking one)
I have an include, called by most pages in my site, named RandomQuote.ss
This contains the following code at the moment:

<% control Page(clientFeedback1) %>

"$Quote"

$Name,
$Organisation

<% end_control %>

This allows me to display the content of the first quote page.
If I changed it to <% control Page(clientFeedback2) %> it would display the contents of that page instead.
(This works so far...)STEP 2) this is where I am coming undone!!!
I need to know how many child pages there are in the holder "client-feedback-items", then i need to pick a random number between 1 and the 'child count' of "client-feedback-items". I then have to return this value to the template page in order to display the random quote.
Here's how I've tried to go about it:
In the Page.php controller I added the following code: (idea was to count child pages then return a random number)
function pickRandomQuote() {
$upperLimit = $Children(client-feedback-items).Count; //count number of child items
$random = rand(1, $upperLimit);
$theRandomQuote = 'clientFeedback'.$random;
return $this->$theRandomQuote;
}then I changed the code in RandomQuote.ss as follows:

<% control Page($pickRandomQuote) %>

"$Quote"

$Name,
$Organisation

<% end_control %>

(Replacing the hard-coded ID with the variable/funtion: $pickRandomQuote)
For reason(s) that I don't understand it doesn't work. It's maybe something a bit obvious and stupid that I'm just not seeing (well, it's getting late now and I'm losing the will to go on!)
I also tried using:
$upperLimit = $Children.Count(client-feedback-items); //count number of child itemsand just a hard-coded one:
$random = rand(1, 4);to test if it worked or if the count code was wrong, but it still didn't work.
Any help would be much appreciated. I know I'm waffling on a bit, but its hard to explain it all!!!

Just bumping this up in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction...?
Re: Display Content from Random child Page (based on Count)
4 August 2009 at 10:14am
I *hope* this is what you're after (to go in the Page Controller and called by $RandomChild on the template):
function RandomChild()
// This returns 1 object (last argument) of QuotePages (your group of quotes)
// and the object returned is ordered randomly (RAND()) so it'll be random!
$randomChild = DataObject::get("QuotePages", null, "RAND()", null, 1);
return $randomChild;
}In the template you should then do a control:
<% control RandomChild %>$Quote by $Author<% end_control %>
I must say that this would be much more efficient if you had a data-object of quotes rather than full pages. This tutorial goes into it really well:

Thanks very much for your suggestions.
I'll try it out and I'll also have a look at the alternative version too. Need to do a bit more reading on this: am just trying to learn on the fly while I develop my first couple of SS sites, so I am probably missing a lot of cool functionality!

Re: Display Content from Random child Page (based on Count)
12 September 2009 at 2:10am
Hi there,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Project was on hold for a wee while.
I still can't get this to work. Keep getting errors and not sure how to fix them...
Am having a look at the data object info just now but i think its going over my head!!!
Re: Display Content from Random child Page (based on Count)
12 September 2009 at 2:25am
I take it back - I've just worked it out!!!
In this part:
$randomChild = DataObject::get("QuotePages", null, "RAND()", null, 1);I was setting the $obj (which you had called QuotePages) to the name of the parent page, whereas it should have been the PageType!
Thank you!
Re: Display Content from Random child Page (based on Count)
22 October 2009 at 9:16am
... and if you want last 3...
class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
// Get random object
function getRandomProductObject() {
return DataObject::get('Product', null, 'RAND()',null,$limit=3);

I felt that I need to make this post:
I apologize for not having posted openly in the main thread that FrostyGaga needed subbing out/mod-killing when she told me by VM. I will make sure everyone gets the necessary information in similar occasions like this in the future.

Okay, yeah. We got super unlucky with our kill. I can't defend myself because I'm obviously mafia, but let me tell you, town, you will love which one of us you lynched.
Well I wasn't gonna vote you, but Vote: Sputnik I guess.
I claimed JOAT, and guess what, I killed the JOAT, so my cover was blown. XD I'm just not going to defend myself because everything is exposed already. And no, I will not tell you who my mafia buddies are. That will be up to you to find out. :evil:
I think this is considered bussing myself, is it not?

That was quite an interesting turn of events.
VOTE: Sputnik.
After the explanations yesterday, I think this is the best action to take. Of course, unless any other evidence comes through.

Just posted a few shots of a new 5 panel we'll be releasing early next month with our Winter 2012 drop.
You can see more at: http://cxcitybrand.com/first-look-rivington-5-panel/
Though I know I said a somewhat different thing in the post above - I think things like these are very oversaturated. The pattern obviously isn't self designed and it makes me think about how much work actually went in to creating this hat...
You shouldn't worry too much about what other people are saying. Buy a hat because YOU like it, not because somebody else likes/disklikes it. There is always going to be someone who has something bad to say about something else.

Superbowl Follow Up
While I would note that the context of the panel was long term fundamentals there was not much in the way of caution other than my talking about small weightings to each country. Part of my reply to this question was to note that PE ratios for emerging market stocks used to be in the mid to high single digits and I stressed that this was important for anyone investing here to understand.
After thinking about this some more I think there is a more productive way to address the issue. First, the person asked about emerging market PE ratios. This frames the issue as if all emerging markets are the same thing which of course they are not--early on on the panel I said I thought the term emerging markets is useless and talked a little about looking a the story on the ground, the things to look at in terms of economic stats and demographics.
I'll repeat that the term emerging market has lost most or all of its meaning. Many of the emerging markets had their debt crises years ago and are now far less indebted than the developed markets--in many instances. Every investment destination on the planet has attributes, positives and negatives. This includes stories on the ground, valuations and everything else. There is also the dynamic of how each country, depending on how it is accessed, interacts with the other countries and how they are accessed in the portfolio.
The nature of the current event has been to punish countries with the largest debt problems. As "the worst crisis in 80 years" it stands to last a while longer. If you agree with that line of thinking then it makes sense to avoid or underweight the countries that have the largest debt problems. Taking the largest debtors off the table leaves plenty of destinations with all sorts of attributes to choose from and while plenty of them are emerging or frontier I would say in this context a country being healthier debt-wise is more important than the label of emerging or developed.
From there anyone buying at the country level then needs to analyze each country on the totality of its merits. Someone who places a high priority on PE ratios would not buy something with a high PE ratio. Of course even if a country has a high PE ratio there will be stocks in that market with low PE ratios. The decision to buy or avoid should boil down to how you weigh the various attributes that comprise the story. Long time readers will know I've gone back and forth a few times with China being in, then out, in again, out again and now in but underweight via a couple of thematic (not China specific) ETFs. Decisions along these lines cannot always be correct of course but a reasonable process for country selection is possible for people inclined to put the time in.

Good point(s) regarding emerging markets. It reinforces the need to reset our minds (and portfolios) to an everchanging global situation.
The US was considered a frontier market to Europeans and Imperial Russia in the 1800s. Money was won, and lost, speculating with both bonds and common stock on ventures from railroads, to steamships to Confederate commerce with neither transparency or a strong central rule of law. American-style capitalism, warts and all, especially post-Civil War to the early 1900s, set the stage for the fruits we enjoyed for the past 100 years.Perhaps history will find similar situations elsewhere in the world sooner rather than later.
Unfortunately, all good things come to an end.Simplistically, in the US, what was a relatively mild dose of class exploitation then has turned into a rather senseless version of fat, lazy class warfare with sport spectacles to keep the population in check now. Greece, Rome, Euroland anyone?

"the fruits we enjoyed for the past 100 years" was 100% because America won WWII and put the USD in place as the world's reserve currency for 100 years.
It is called world domination.
Every other country in the world must pay back it's debt while the USA can simple print money and inflate it away into pennies on the dollar at any time.
That is what is chaning, US capitalism is NOT the reason.

How do you figure out what the PE ratio of a country is? Which countries have the lowest PE's? Even more useful would be to compute PE where earnings are averaged over a large number of past years, such as Shiller's PE where he averages over the past 10 years of S&P 500 earnings.

the best answer is if you know someone who has access to a bloomberg machine. WEI , then find the country you want and go to the info page for that country (more specifically it is the benchmark index of that country).
beyond that the info page for a single country ETF often has PE ratios for the fund which is certainly close. Bigcharts sometimes has it but finding a chart of a particular index can be tricky. Bloomberg.com might have too (do a google search and see what you see). - 7:57 PM
- Anonymous said...
What's "WEI"? Is that something on the bloomberg machine? Unfortunately I don't know anybody with a bloomberg. I've tried using single country ETF's to answer this question, but the information doesn't seem very accurate.
For instance, let's take iShares EWZ, the Brazil ETF. On Yahoo it says PE=11. The fact that it's an integer makes me question it right off the bat. How often is that figure updated? Does that use trailing 12-month earnings? The price changes daily, but I don't think the reported PE changes daily. I've tried to go to the iShares website itself, but I keep getting a message saying I need to register as a financial professional in order to access that page, or something like that. It's very frustrating. Any suggestions? For me, knowing the PE of a country would be very useful information. I would also be very interested in knowing the earnings trend of a country - for instance, what's the average growth rate over the past 5 or 10 years?

WEI is a bloomberg machine function; world equity index. I am pretty sure the iShares data is updated monthly. other than a google search I'm not sure where else to look.
one idea i just had, ask your brokerage firm. I know Schwab and Fido have international desks that will give that info to clients. - 8:33 PM

About the PAHO Strategic Fund - Challenges |
The Challenges facing Member States in Access
The challenges facing Member States of the Pan America Health Organization, regional office of the World Health Organization in the region of the Americas, in improving access to essential public health supplies lie principally in important areas of selection of quality products, financing and procurement, cost containment and intellectual property regulation, and supply management.
The selection of essential public health supplies is often not based on rational criteria resulting in the selection and use of inappropriate commodities.
Sources of commodities are often selected based on price alone, and without appropriate consideration of product quality and quality assessment of manufacturers and suppliers. Price information is often not readily available to facilitate referencing in procurement, and there is insufficient information on pricing policies and methodologies being applied.
Too often essential drugs are inaccessible to the poor because of high price: differential pricing policies are not necessarily equity-based. Due consideration has not been afforded to the importance of supply management systems, forecasting, programming and planning in ensuring the continued availability of public health supplies.
The adoption of national health and medicines policies throughout the Americas is not resulting in the development of integrated supply systems at the national level. It is not uncommon to find isolated and disconnected procurement processes, parallel supply systems in operation, and duplication of functions with poor coordination between authorities at the district and national level. The supply of products is often ensured through isolated procurement systems designed and operated without consideration of the importance of managing and monitoring system processes as a whole: this ultimately leads to stock shortages, cost increases, and missed opportunities to utilize available funding.

thumbs-up !
I bought HexaLite Original Chair for my friend who is the best partner of my trecking. He was looking for handy chair. Very light, fold away easily for storage, and quick adjustable reclined position. He said "I give two thumbs-up to HexaLite Original Chair !"
- June 23 2011
buy this if you like sitting
finally got around to buying one of these things. i love em! couldnt imagine my hikes without them. so light and easy to hike with and its great to have something symmetrical and comfortable to sit in at camp or quick breaks. definitely recommend. too convenient just to pass up.
Altrec.com Shopper - August 5 2010
I like this chair!
This chair is not huge, but it also is very light. I tried hiking with a 'sit pad' and that just wasn't enough for me. This chair supports my back and is just what I wanted.
niema coleman - March 12 2010
seems too small
I like that this chair is very packable- however, it really has a narrow seat and is not very comfortable. I will try the high-back version and compare the two - regardless, I will keep one because they pack so well.

It's hard to remember things like that sometimes... especially with the media's idea of a perfect female is... but I really don't want any more negativity in my head. There's just not enough room in there for that kinda stuff! It's nice to have someone around to tell me I'm doing something right, though -- snap me back into reality. =)

Wednesday, April 8
[B]Sleep:[/B] 2:30am-10am. Slept soundly with a full belly! No dreams, no getting up in the night, no thirst or hunger.
[B]Supplements:[/B] No change.
[B]Exercise:[/B] Meant to lift weights today, but my "personal trainer" didn't feel up to it, so I ran. A [I]lot.[/I]
9 miles, 60 minutes.
[B]Food:[/B] B: Coffee, almond milk, stevia.
L: 100g raw sirloin steak & green salad: "power" greens, cherry tomatoes, raisins, baby carrots, 5 crushed almonds, baby cucumber. H-made ranch dressing: 1oz. 0% Greek yogurt, splash almond milk, spices.
S: 5oz. 0% Greek yogurt, PB2, crushed walnuts, 1/2 small banana. 2 corn cake thins.
PreWO: 1 small mango, a few cherries.
D: H-made "sushi:" cauliflower rice cooked in sesame oil + rice vinegar, 2oz. smoked salmon, 1oz avocado, baby carrot, cucumber rolled in Nori sheet. Leftover cauli-rice was used up in a small shrimp fried rice with a spoonful of precooked baby shrimp and green peas. Used tamari.
S: Chocolate "dip" for fruit: canned pumpkin puree, cocoa powder, monk fruit sweetener, 2 tsp sugar, splash almond milk. Used 1/2 banana, cherries and strawberries to dip. Also had 2 corn cake thins, and 5 almonds. Went back for seconds and had 1 more corn cake (like 12 cals per cake) with PB2 and raisins topped with shredded raw carrots and ginger.
Before Bed: 2 slices Italian bread with sweetened cream cheese. 1 glass unsweetened almond milk + rosewater. Yum... No guilt, right?
Drinks: Coffee, water, almond milk, RockStar + Hydration Orange energy drink, blueberry iced tea, mineral water, hot sleepy tea, a sip of orange soda, Slenderize Fuze.
Cravings: After running, I wanted frozen yogurt! Also wanted fruit all day. Obviously, I indulged my craving for that... soooo much fruit today!
Ended up around ~1800 cals, net estimated ~1200? (Not sure if this is good, bad, acceptable, excellent. It is what it is, I suppose)
[B]Physical State:[/B] In desperate need of a haircut, but I don't wannaaa. Got a new zit on the side of my face, [I]yay.[/I] Had some digestive issues today (went 3 times, with nausea) but I feel better now. I snack on fermented veg here and there, and take probiotics, so possibly I should cut back. Or take less magnesium. My hip joint doesn't hurt too much anymore, but my inner thigh muscles, biceps, and lower back are all achey in a muscular sort of way... which is good! Means I'm getting stronger.
[B]Mental State:[/B] Emotionally, today was a mess. Woke up very [U]excited [/U]to enjoy the beautiful day. I got dressed earlier than usual, which for some reason annoyed my SO? He said he felt pressured to go out too early just because I was ready to leave. He was being very difficult today, which made me feel [U]stressed, annoyed, and impatient[/U] with him. Honestly, I think that he is on his man-period or something. He was moody, very tired, and had a lot of ups-and-downs, which is abnormal for him. He ended up taking a nap (!) instead of going out, and was even upset with me when he woke again at 4:30pm and I still wanted to head out for the day. I [U]patiently[/U] waited over 4 hours for him to get his shit together, and even while we were out doing errands, he was quiet and detached. We stopped home so I could change for the gym, and as he was driving me there, he said he was depressed because I hadn't had sex with him yesterday or today. It actually [U]angered[/U] me so much that he thought that I didn't want to be intimate with him for any particular reason: yesterday, a friend was over until after 1am, and today, he was so emotional that I didn't really feel attracted to him sexually. I was so [U]irritated[/U] that I told him he could just drop me off at the gym and I'd do my workout alone. In a [U]rage-filled[/U], energy-drink fueled run, I went a whole 9 miles in exactly 1 hour, which is better than I've ever done before. I always knew that I exercised better when I felt upset, but this was pretty amazing. My SO was unfortunately still moody when I returned, and I took a shower alone, hoping he'd feel better sooner or later. I planned out the whole evening to spend by myself, to give him space. As I was drying off with a runny nose, he poked his head up and asked if I was crying. Me, cryiiing? He's the depressed one! Finally, we resolved our issues without really talking, and the rest of the night has gone swimmingly. As I sit here with a full belly and tired eyes, I am not afraid to go to bed in conflict with my bf.
Thursday, April 9
Hmm, I'm probably going to keep changing the titles of these things until I find something too amazing and fitting to change.
[B]Sleep:[/B] 3am-11:30am. Woke up several times during the night.
[B]Supplements:[/B] No change.
[B]Exercise:[/B] Warm-up: 1 mile sprint (elliptical): 5:23, level 2 (heartrate 150bpm)
1 full pull-up, Almoooost 2
Shoulder Press: 20lbs per hand x 10; 25lbs per hand x 6 (couldn't finish the last two)
Tricep Pull: 40lbs x 10; 50lbs x 8
Bench Press: 45lbs x 10; 55lbs x 8
Glute Machine: 60lbs per leg x 10; 70lbs per leg x 8 (should increase these soon)
Back Extension: 100lbs x 10; 125lbs x 8 (recently increased)
Leg Extension: 70lbs x 10; 85lbs x 8
Adduction: 130lbs x 10; 145lbs x 8
Calf Raises: 70lbs x 10; 80lbs x 8 (should increase these soon)
Seated Leg Press: 150lbs x 10; 170lbs x 8
[B]Food:[/B] B: Coffee (freshly ground, mmm), almond milk, stevia.
L: Shared a small mango (100g), had some cantaloupe (~120g) with prosciutto (1oz) (gave the fat to my kitty, she loves it so much! lol) bowl of cherries (~75g) and strawberries(~100g). 3 smoked almonds. Fruity!
PostWO: 1 corn cake thin with PB2 + 1 tbs 0% greek yogurt.
D: (planned) center-cut (130g raw) pork chop, roasted apples (1/2), onions(1/2) & potatoes (~80g). Also sauteed some sauerkraut.
S: 4 corn cakes spread with 5oz 0% greek yogurt + cocoa powder + stevia + sugar, 1/2 banana, cherries and strawberries on the side. Had a bit of PB2 + coconut oil also. Drank a big cup (~12oz.) unsweetened almond milk + rosewater.
Before Bed: slice of Italian bread with butter. Damnit, I don't want to make this a habit!
Drinks: Coffee, almond milk, Cherry-Lime Xyience Energy Drink, water, Neuro Bliss. (Calories: estimated ~1500 Net ~1300)
[B]Physical State:[/B] Didn't rinse out all of my hair oil mask, so that's looking pretty gross--greasy even though it's clean. I'll shower after my gym session though. Skin is breaking out again, ugh. My SO even asked if I was stressed out about something! sadface. Wish I could wear foundation at the gym without the consequence of more zits. Digestion is kind of in hyperdrive, from all the fruit I suppose. I've already been 3 times today! TMI, always. In other news, my feet sort of hurt, and my inner thigh muscles feel a bit sore.
[B]Mental State:[/B] Woke up this morning, forgot that a friend stayed the night. Got spotted walking to the restroom naked as soon as I got out of bed, so that sucked. I've been in a relatively good mood so far today, and am [U]motivated[/U] to get to the gym. I rather enjoy running more often than lifting weights, I feel as if it will give me my desired results better than lifting weights more often. If anyone disagrees or has more knowledge of this and would like to give advice, please do so! As much as I try to get it right with being active and staying in shape, there is always room for another perspective.
[I]Update:[/I] After getting home from the gym, I ran around and was [U]busy [/U]with cleaning up and getting dressed to go out. We went to go smoke some hookah at a bar that we frequent. We sat outside, and it was breezy, sunny, and beautiful. I [U]enjoyed[/U] the [U]relaxing[/U] time that we took to talk about nothing and just hang out. After an hour or so of that, we went back home, alone. I was ready for some intimacy, but my SO said that someone else was on their way to our house as we were driving home. This [U]annoyed[/U] me because yesterday my bf was giving me a hard time about being depressed over our lack of intimacy (which isn't even true because we have sex nearly every day, just to clear that up.) Anyway, I asked him to hurry to the house to get there before our friend, and it was [U]exciting[/U] to be a little risky, even though I felt [U]disappointed[/U] that the friend arrived before we were finished. Nevertheless, I felt [U]glowing and satisfied[/U] knowing that we could go again after the friend left. I did a few chores around the house, and started on dinner. The food I made was delicious and filled me up even though I wasn't sure it would since I hadn't had much to eat so far and had done some weight lifting. As soon as dinner was ready, the friend left (we didnt have enough to share) and we ate, then decided to have another round, so to speak. Unfortunately, it [U]wasn't as satisfying[/U] as it could've been if we'd just had as much time as we needed the first time, but that isn't always the case, and I still [U]appreciated[/U] it. After some laundry folding and a bit more t.v., I had my snack. I'm sitting here, now, and I feel [U]accomplished, tired, and content[/U] with the day. I hope that tomorrow can be a bit more eventful but just as satisfying. I realize, though, that every single day that I experience is exactly the way that it [I]should[/I] be, whether I it goes exactly as I want it to, or not. With every up and down, I am learning more about myself and life, and truly, everything does happen for a reason (sooo cheesy but I believe it.)
What are your desired results with lifting/running?
I like the way you underline your feelings in your journal. That's really inspiring, especially to see the fluctuations in the way you feel on different days. My optimism and feelings wax and wane in a very labile way too. I like the saying, "feelings aren't facts". Thank goodness they aren't.
Also, you've made great progress with your re-feed, that body fat % going up and up. What does it feel like? Do you weigh and measure yourself or does a doctor do it for you?
[QUOTE=Zach;1185793]What are your desired results with lifting/running?[/QUOTE]
Hmmm. Wellp, that's sort of a long story. Before I relapsed into Anorexia, I was working out a lot and was in shape. I have always just really been into health. Then I suffered a traumatic injury that caused a relapse, and I couldn't exercise, restricted too much, blah, blah. I lost all of my muscle in my butt, and everywhere else, too. While recovering (on my own, without doctors) I started working out again in January to build back my muscle, stimulate my appetite, and relieve the stress involved with recovery. I've always been the type of person who feels the need to work out in order to feel at peace and get rid of anxiety.
Fast-forward four months later, and here I am, with a weight-restored body. Now, I am just trying to stay lean and have a good waist-to-hip ratio, with maybe some abs thrown in there? About a month ago I was focusing on lifting heavier weights and gaining muscle, but right now I have a good bit and I'm not trying to get bulkier arms, so I'm running to keep that from happening, while still trying to gain just a bit more muscle in my butt, lol. An inch or so?
When/if I reach my goals, which are varied from feeling confident in the nude/on the beach, to being able to do anything physical without wimping out, I still feel that I'll just keep exercising, and adapting to however my body reacts to it. Sorry if that was long, I just have a lot of things in mind in regards to this. :)
One more thing! I wanted to ask your opinion on electronic body fat calculators. There's one at my gym, and I was wondering if I should rely on this to tell my bf% correctly, or if it's a shitty piece of equipment? Thanks ^___^

Thanks, I try to underline my feelings to see how they fluctuate throughout the day without having to read my rambling in between, lol. I also try to correlate my positive/negative feelings with things that happen in my life, so that I can be better equipped to deal with things, so to speak.
As far as my re-feed, it was very difficult at first to accept that it was what I needed to do in order to get my life back. However, even though my mind wasn't exactly ready to jump into recovery, my body could not handle starvation anymore, so I experienced a lot of "reactive eating" despite my mental resistance. One cannot simply override the primitive, basic human needs forever.
I don't go to a doctor because I haven't had good experiences with them at all, and I don't really value their opinions much, honestly. I used to weigh myself every time I went to the gym and record it, but after I got to a certain weight, this became very triggering for me, so I made myself stop. The gym also has an electronic body fat calculator that I used, but I'm not sure how accurate those things are. I do still measure my body when I feel up to it, and that is the least stressful for me. It makes me happy to feel my muscles and strength, and I am so much more level-headed now that I don't obsess over food *quite* so much as I used to.
Are you going through an eating disorder, or recovering? :)
A mix of running and weight lifting is fine for your goals then. Just dont venture into the long distance cardio land of doing miles every day.
From my experience, those electronic bf% measurers are pretty dang accurate. Females are trickier because they hold more fat in odd places and in the breasts, they also tend to hold more water. Still, pretty accurate for just tracking purposes.

'What or where on earth is Almeria?'.. Did I read your mind? Well, here we go:
You surely know Spain and you even might have travelled to a few of Spain's Regions, visiting a variety of Spanish cities. Perhaps you have even been to Spain's Southern Region of Andalusia…
BUT, do you know Spain's best kept secret? – ... where the sun has gone when it disappears in the rest of Spain? – It has gone to:
This still "unknown" province of Andalusia (Spain) and yet very unique place in Europe is ideal for those, who are looking for a real hideaway, unspoilt nature, plenty of sun and adventure.
Few places have the natural beauty of this Andalusian province. It's geography is so wide-ranging that it combines the beautiful mountain scenes of the Sierra Nevada Nature Park with the spectacular beaches of the Cabo de Gata Nature Park.
Here in this breathtaking and different Andalusian Province, you might find out that:
During your stay, you may come across many urban legends, like the birthplace of Walt Disney being Mojacar or when visiting Mini Hollywood, you may stumble into Henry Fonda's secret son, like I did. And of course, before you explore the Cabo de Gata Naturalpark, don't miss to read about Federico Garcia Lorca's Blood Wedding!
Be prepared, this province will surprise you!
(click on image to enlarge)
From the volcanic regions and awesome beaches of Cabo de Gata and the desert regions of Tabernas, to the fertile foothills of the Alpujarra, the gateway to Sierra Nevada..
...whatever you prefer, mountains or beach, snow or sun..
Stick with me and uncover one of Spain's best-kept secret hideaways and, who knows, you may end up with some unforgettable Spanish holidays!
Have fun!

Hey,I just wanted to congratulate you for the creation of this web, it's so nice to read all of this about your place when you are abroad. It's great to see how Almería is a real "kept secret" not many people around Europe know it, but when they do, they love it. It's just such a broad combination of landscape and amazing places.. I miss it so much! Once again, thanks for creating this web!! great job! Best,

Mauseus sales on the internet
Just preparing a second sales list of coins to release early April but there are coins on List 1 still available (a caveat if looking at the list, not all the sold coins are marked). There is also a group of late Roman / early Byzantine nummi that I've added to my website that are available as a lot. In the group there are a number of Leos with differing monograms, a Leo and Verina, a Marcian etc... They are cuirrently priced to sell as a lot but will be priced individually at the coin fair at Harrogate in the UK 23/24th March. Any coins remaining after that show will be on list 2. This is probably the only opportunity to buy the whole group. The coins are pictured below and can bee seen on the following link: http://www.carausius.hookmoor.com/home/?page_id=141 Thanks for looking. Regards, Mauseus

Chancellor Zimpher Concludes 64-Campus Tour in her first 100 daysSeptember 3, 2009 Albany – State University of New York Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher today held an outdoor press event on the lawn at SUNY Plaza. The chancellor then left for Sullivan County Community College to conclude her tour of all 64 SUNY campuses and the first phase of the strategic plan for the university. Chancellor Zimpher began her tour the week of June 1, with trips to the SUNY campuses at Cornell University, the University at Albany, Mohawk Valley Community College and Binghamton University. "SUNY's responsibility is to support our campus-community connections. We must seek to serve each community's needs and do what it takes to keep our gifted and well educated students within the region upon graduation," said Chancellor Zimpher. This week's visits include Herkimer County Community College, Niagara County Community College, Nassau and Suffolk County Community Colleges as well as Sullivan County Community College. Since June 1, less than 100 days into her tenure as chancellor, Zimpher has crisscrossed New York State visiting each of the SUNY research centers, health science centers and hospitals, community colleges, comprehensive and technical colleges. "Being a campus president twice in my career, I think I was just following my intuition to meet the presidents and hear the voices of the faculty, staff and community supporters," said Chancellor Zimpher. "As the president of a university, you could do this on a golf cart; it's not that easy when you're touring New York State." By the time Chancellor Zimpher has returned from her visit at Sullivan County Community College, she will have driven 6,703 miles, flown 780 miles, and sailed 24 nautical miles for a grand total of 7,507 miles over land, sea and air in 95 days. "Academics see themselves as citizens of the world. They seek national and international recognition for their work," said Chancellor Zimpher. "But the greatest pathway to national and international recognition is to serve your state, and I just think that's an important way of thinking about our work." Throughout the tour, SUNY campus presidents and the chancellor have held meetings, open forums and receptions with faculty, students, staff, elected officials, alumni, community and business leaders, members of community college boards of trustees, foundation board members, parents of students, friends and others. "These are tough times, and the last thing in the world we want to do is challenge the pocketbooks of our students and their families," said Chancellor Zimpher. "That's a partnership we have with the state and all the elected officials I meet are just as committed to affordability as I am." As part of the strategic planning process, results of the interaction with the greater SUNY community and the chancellor will be posted to the SUNY Web site for comment, suggestions and ideas, which will be followed by a series of forums held in regions around the state. "Our goal is to present a plan that makes it clear that when considering the SUNY institutions, the whole system is greater than the sum of its parts." Additional information about Chancellor Zimpher's 64-campus tour is available here. Chancellor Zimpher's biography and downloadable headshot are available here.

Vince Trocheck ranked first in faceoffs, second in shootout shooters (probably based on reputation, as he's gone 1-for-5 this year, but was 5-for-10 last year and 3-for-5 the year before), and third for "most dangerous in the goal area" by the coaches. I think he should maybe have gotten a few more mentions, especially for defensive forward and penalty killer (hello league leader in shorthanded goals), but three is obviously not bad at all and Plymouth has a ton of guys to put up for these things.
From the Sun-Sentinel: The captain of the (OHL's Plymouth) Whalers, Jenks was second on the team this past season in goals (23), assists (40) and points (63) in 52 regular season games (4 goals, 8 assists in 9 playoff games). The only teammate with more goals, assists and points: fellow center Tyler Seguin, who's rated the No. 1 overall prospect by NHL Central Scouting and is expected to go in the top two picks of this year's draft. Jenks' OHL numbers can be found here.

Pier 17 Sets Sail: Landmarks Commission Approves New Designs by SHoP, Still Not Sold on Another Mall
Does a developer have any obligation to undo the ills of the past?
That was the rather existential debate that took place at the Landmarks Preservation Commission earlier this month, as commissioners debated the merits of a proposal to transform Pier 17 at the South Street Seaport. While the designs by SHoP Architects were roundly applauded, and ultimately won unanimous approval, many commissioners lamented the fact that the current mall was being replaced with a new one, rather than something less commercial or even nothing at all, just a wide-open public pier.
"There's lots of proof in Manhattan that a shopping mall never works, but nevertheless, there's a developer who insists they have the right formula for this shopping mall to finally work, so I guess within the context of that, then the question really is—is the architecture appropriate for the Seaport?" commissioner Margery Perlmutter said.
Commissioner Fred Bland felt so strongly about the issue, including the destruction of the notable-for-its-time Ben Thompson-designed mall, that he had composed his comments earlier that day, something he said had only happened twice before in his four years on the commission (for St. Vincent's and "for the infamous mosque").

Bill Raney, president of the West Virginia Coal Association, contends that the federal law doesn't obligate coal companies to develop the flattened sites, but merely "to make sure the opportunity is there."
Raney is wrong. SMCRA is specific about the obligation of permit-holders. Before a variance can be granted, the coal company must show (1) a need and market for the proposed post-mining use, (2) that appropriate agencies have committed to making the necessary public investments, and (3) that the development is "practicable with respect to private financial capability for completion of the proposed use."
In addition, the coal company is supposed to attach a timetable to the reclamation plan, to integrate ongoing mining and reclamation with the post-mining land use.
Such detailed plans, even on those mountaintop sites that get the required variances, are rarely - if ever - included with permit applications, despite the legal requirement. That's because state and federal regulators fell down on the job.
As Rep. Nick Rahall, D-W.Va., said, "OSM has been out to lunch." Only recently has public pressure convinced the U.S. Office of Surface Mining to take a closer look at the state program.
Moreover, instead of developments providing jobs, housing or recreation, most post-mining plans say the terrain will be used for hay-growing, pasture, rangeland or fish and wildlife habitat.
SMCRA was supposed to be a social compact between the coal industry and coalfield residents. In exchange for being allowed an environmentally devastating form of mining, industry was supposed to leave something better behind for the communities.
Mountaintop removal mines may be "fields of dreams" for out-of-state coal executives who line their pockets with profits from this most economical form of mining.
But this is the stuff of nightmares for West Virginians whose wells are ruined and whose foundations are cracked by the blasting, for communities choked with dust and pounded by rocks, and for mountaineers who watch their beloved hills lose their wild beauty.
Worse, West Virginians are left with little to show as coal companies fail to live up to their part of the bargain, and regulators let them get away with it.

Star Trek Online Going Online, Sometime
Star Trek Online is going to be unveiled in a little over four days at the Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas (August 10th). Leonard Nimoy is set to make the announcement and show some actual gameplay footage. In case you were wondering, it's going to be a MMORPGLOLROTFLMFAO that takes place in the Star Trek universe. For those of you too lazy to go to the website:
Become part of Star Trek®: The Star Trek universe will appear for the first time in a massively multiplayer online game. Everything from the elegant domes of Starfleet Academy to the ancient temples of Vulcan, from the towers of Qo'noS to the Fire Caves of Bajor, from the mysterious Mutara Nebula to the unexplored voids of deep space, all will be represented in stunning 3-D graphics. Immerse yourself in the future of the Trek universe as it moves into the 25th century: a time of shifting alliances and new discoveries.
Adventure in the Final Frontier: Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations in an expanding vast universe. Make contact with alien races, discover resources and uncover mysteries that will change the future of the Star Trek universe.
You Are the Captain: Command your own starship as a Federation Captain or a Klingon Warrior. Outfit it with the systems that you need to make your mark in the galaxy. Customize your ship as you see fit. Recruit, train and mold your crew into an elite force for exploration and combat.
Boy am I excited. But truthfully, there's still only one way to play Star Trek, and that's dressed in a Starfleet jumpsuit you made out of your old highschool track uniform while sitting in a cardboard Enterprise. Want to play? Good, I'll be Geordi La Forge. Okay, now where the hell is my VISOR? Oh, great. Godammit woman, I told you that is NOT your hairband anymore, that's my freaking VISOR! I need it to see.

If you've ever driven a Focus ST in anger—meaning you powershifted it—you've felt the engine move on its mounts. To me, it feels like the engine wants to come through the dash and land in your lap. The factory mount (left) is so flimsy that it's been addressed by a factory TSB calling for a revised OE unit. The Steeda mount is built of billet and polyurethane, while the cast factory unit uses a rubber bushing.

The STEP Program Wants to Help! Nassau County is urging residents to apply for the FEMA funded Sheltering and Temporary Essential Power (STEP) Program before the new deadline of January 18th. It is the intent of this project to provide temporary power, heat and hot water to residential homes in the areas adversely affected by Hurricane Sandy so as to allow residents to remain home while they wait on their permanent repairs. The STEP Program can provide up to four (4) electric baseboard heaters, an electric water heater and can also replace an electrical panel. In conjunction with these services, STEP is working with a volunteer mold program to provide remediation for homes affected by the storm. Additionally, they are working with a licensed contractor to provide limited carpentry services to protect the exterior of people's homes and roofs from the elements. All of this is provided at no cost to you! Residents seeking assistance through the Nassau County STEP Program should dial 516-573-0315. After an assessment is conducted, you will be matched up with a contractor who will contact you to schedule the installation. The STEP program's hours of operation are 9am-9pm seven (7) days a week. They are working around the clock to help people as quickly as possible. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Nassau County STEP Program has thus far assessed over 5,400 homes. In order to be a part of this program, you need to have your home assessed by January 18th. You can follow the program on facebook and twitter to help spread the word to local residents who need help!
