Initial news is good: no mass, tumor, lump — ultrasound showed a bunch of dense and enhanced tissue + a lot of shadows. What does that mean? Not sure, so ultrasound doc will follow up with doc who read MRI, and she will compare with my previous MRIs to determine what exactly has changed and if there is anything to biopsy. If not, a repeat MRI will probably be scheduled. Surgeon will also be looped into the mystery. So, while I did not get a definite "everything is fine," I am at peace knowing there was nothing alarming discovered!
Next Up — Ultrasound
Ultrasound scheduled for 10:30 this morning.
Suspended State
"I'm sure you'll be in a suspended state until you know."
Suspended state.
That's it.
Credit for these words, which are so fitting for my situation, goes to Anna. She's my boss, a faraway friend, someone I've never even seen in person — that is so strange, isn't it? The virtual world makes it possible for me to work at home in Florida with a staff of others who fill a New York City office building. I am so lucky. (Not to have never seen Anna, of course, just to have the great gift of working in my house so I can be a professional and a mom.)
So, if you have not read the posts that come before this one, I am waiting. waiting. waiting. for an ultrasound (hopefully on Monday) that will give a second look at a "new conglomerate of small enhancing foci in the retroareolar region" of my right breast (not the one where I've already had breast cancer) and a non-mass-like something in the posterior of the same breast. Malignancy and infectious/inflammatory etiologies are considered, says the MRI report.
The MRI I had on Thursday was just a routine follow-up — a test that was supposed to reveal I am still cancer-free.
Maybe I am still cancer-free. Maybe I'm not. The ultrasound, and probably a biopsy, will flesh it all out. While I wait for that second look, though, I'm sorta just going through the motions and hanging in a balance. I'm up and down, and, well, this is what I feel:
Yes, a suspended state, Anna. I don't know whether to feel panic or peace, nervous or calm, worry or hope. It's crazy.
There is still plenty of happy in my world, though. I mean, how can I not count my blessings with a boy who is willing to dance his little heart out at the Gator basketball game last night just to get on TV (and in the newspaper).
All in all, I am fine. I know deep down that if cancer is back, I will just fight it again. And if it is not back, I will be the happiest girl I know.
What I Feel
Quick MRI Results Not a Good Sign
1. Incomplete MRI of right breast with new conglomerate of small enhancing foci in the retroareolar region and non-mass-like enhancement of posterior breast as detailed above. Malignant and infectious/inflammatory etiologies are considered. A second look with ultrasound is recommended to evaluate for discreet lesion that would be amenable to biopsy. If ultrasound in unsuccessful, MRI-guided biopsy should be considered.
2. Normal left breast MRI.
Next up: ultrasound, early next week.
Funny thing: seven years ago, just before Thanksgiving, it all happened pretty much like this.
Of course, it could be nothing.
Or it could be something.
I just want to know.
MRI No. 5
I had my fifth post-cancer MRI today. I get one every year, right at this time. It's just a routine thing, a method of peeking at the insides of my breasts to determine if cancer is coming back or not. I don't know what today's results will reveal — gotta wait for my oncologist to call — but I do know it was a pretty good visit. I can't always say that, because I usually wait so long to have my turn in the tube that I'm steaming mad by the time I slip into my awesome blue gown.
Today, though, no one made me wait, no one made me pay, I got my MRI in the new part of the hospital (first time there), and besides one minor blood spill when the needle came out of my arm, everything went well. The best part of the morning was meeting a woman newly diagnosed with breast cancer, telling her it's been almost 7 years since my story started (see, there IS hope!), and leading her to my blog, where she can hopefully see that what lies ahead isn't always horrible.
And to the newly-diagnosed woman — if you are reading, welcome to my blog. It's really long (that's a good thing — it means I've been surviving for a good amount of time), but I hope you'll find what you seek, and if you don't, please just leave me a comment or send me an e-mail (address is on the card I gave you), and I will happily answer any of your questions or lead you to someone who can. Best wishes to you!
Betting Biopsy Will Reveal Basal Cell
Dermatologist upon seeing suspicious spot on my arm: "Yea, we're gonna need to biopsy that."
Yea, I figured.
And in a week, if I learn I've got skin cancer, it will be cut out, and I'll sport a matching slash next to the one I already have for a basal cell cancer that was removed from the same arm in 2009.
50/50 Does Cancer Good
I don't watch movies with a very critical eye, and mostly, I don't really care much if what I see on the big screen matches reality. I'm just happy if films make me think, laugh, learn, and sometimes cry. Tonight, though, I saw 50/50 (about a young man who is diagnosed with cancer and must endure the rigors of fighting it), and it had me thinking for all 100 minutes, "Is this an accurate portrayal of a cancer battle?"
I'm thinking it was.
Not everything mirrored what I personally encountered, but a lot of it did.
Like the blurring effect a crushing diagnosis can have.
Like the chemotherapy infusion room — same pink leathery chairs and same gathering of cancer patients making small talk that turns into something more.
Like the shaving of the hair in preparation of the inevitable.
Like the bald head.
Like the pre-op room, with family standing by the bedside and doctors buzzing around, requesting signatures and pushing drugs that cause sleepiness.
Like the post-op room, with family standing by smiling because the news is hopeful.
Like the therapist still working on her Ph.D., dispensing relaxation techniques and advice and managing anger and frustration.
Like the nausea, the fatigue, the nervousness, the insecurity.
Like the mom who worries and is always ready to help.
There was no actual vomiting for me, no "medical" marijuana, no cheating significant other, no major big meltdown (just a bunch of minor ones), no Seth Rogan funny friend.
Still, the movie rings true.
A lot.
Probably because it's inspired by a true story and written by the guy who lived it.
(And Seth Rogan really was his funny friend).
October. Over.
October is almost over, which means (a) my house is filled with candy, and the ultimate challenge is upon me: to eat or not to eat, (b) the time will soon change, and I will begin hating how it gets dark so early, (c) the onslaught of pink that has probably been gagging you for 31 days will slow to a medium roar, and (d) it will soon be seven years since I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
1 in 8 Is Not Every Woman's Risk
I'm not sure why I didn't fully understand the whole 1 in 8 thing before this week, but, clearly, I did not. Because when my friend who happens to spend his days hunting down a cure for cancer told me that the 1 in 8 chance of getting breast cancer is a lifetime risk and not a risk for every woman at every age, I was sorta shocked. And way relieved.
My friend directed me to the National Cancer Institute, where I located some facts about the often-thrown-around statistic, and here is what I learned:
If you are 30 years old, you have a 1 in 233 chance of developing breast cancer in the next 10 years, a 1 in 54 chance in the next 20 years, a 1 in 24 chance in the next 30 years, and a 1 in 8 chance in your lifetime.
Did I have a 1 in 8 chance at age 34? Nope. I still got the disease, yes (which means I'm pretty unlucky, I guess), but my chances were not as great as one might believe.
Now, your risk does increase as you age (because, as my friend told me, cancer is mostly a disease of older people), but, still, even a 70-year-old woman has a 1 in 27 chance of getting breast cancer in the next 10 years. Not 1 in 8.
I am not here to minimize in any way the fact that breast cancer strikes far too many women of all ages, and I realize there are risk factors that change the odds listed above, but, I do appreciate a little perspective.
And now, I have some.
The First Two Months
This is pretty much what happens in the two months following a breast cancer diagnosis:
- Mammogram.
- Ultrasound.
- Needle-guided biopsy.
- Echo heart scan.
- Full-body PET scan.
- Muga heart scan.
- BRCA genetic testing.
- Numerous blood tests.
- Portacath inserted in my chest.
- 3 rounds of chemo.
- 2 bone marrow generating Neulasta injections.
- Hair loss.
- Insomnia.
- Exhaustion.
- Nausea/vomiting.
- Bloating/weight gain.
- Migraines.
- Appointments with cardiologists, oncologists, oncology surgeons for my future mastectomy, plastic surgeons for future reconstruction.
- Too many prescriptions to name.
- Menopause … fun times.
That could so be my list (except for the PET scan and the mastectomy and plastic surgeon appointments).
But, it's not.
It belongs to Angela over at It Is What It Is. (That's her in the pic.)
Angela, 31 years old and mom to a daughter and twin boys, is in the midst of treatment right now, and if you are, too, or you are about to be, or you just want to follow someone amazing who is tackling life despite its hurdles, you really should go visit this spunky gal (who also happens to be giving away a Bondi Band headband).

Bald Isn't Bad Forever
If cancer ever forces you to lose your hair, you will probably be devastated, like I was.
But, in time, you might like the benefits of bald.
Like no shampoo; no hair drying, curling, flattening; and no time at all to get ready in the morning. (No shaving or eyebrow tweezing either.)
Not that you won't love it when your hair returns, but bald isn't the worst thing forever. Just in the beginning.

Her First Mammogram
My friend Heather wrote a story about her first mammogram, and, in the name of breast cancer awareness, she is donating it to me so I can publish it for you. Her words follow, and see that photo to the right? That's her — the girl I first met when we were something like 25 years old, and, now, we're something like 40.
Oh, and the "cancer-surviving friend" in the story — that's me!
My First Mammogram
Heather Dilatush
I just had my second mammogram. I really don't mind going to the doctor or dentist – I like staying on top of my health, but I did skip last year's mammogram and I think I know why.
Two years ago, I went for my first "mammo." People will probably not believe this, but I wasn't nervous or worried about the pain that sometimes accompanies getting "squished." I figured that if it hurt, I would take some deep breaths and get through it. As my cancer-surviving friend said, getting squished may hurt, but cancer hurts more.
But first, let me put that time in a little context. I was getting my mammo at the start of a new school year. Although I was heading into my sixth year of teaching, I was thrown into teaching photography. I am a skilled artist, but I confess, I am not a photographer. I don't even have a background in photography. Zippo, ziltch, nadda. So I was about to learn in front of 16-year-olds. I know, fun, right? It was one of the few times in my life when I felt like I didn't know which end was up. Everybody kept telling me I was a great art teacher and I would be good. But like all teachers, I like to know my stuff really, super double extra well so that I can teach the hell out of it. Where do you start when you don't know anything? And another confession: I have no passion for it. I appreciate it; my partner is a great photographer, my dad had a darkroom in our basement, but that particular artform does almost nothing for me. It makes no sense, I know.
So like a good 39-year-old, I went in for my mammogram and was greeted and fondled by a very nice woman. I got squished, and it was fine. She said that sometimes people have to come in a second time, but that 80% of the time it is just to get some better shots. I thought that made sense. And I remember thinking I could never do her job. I am scared to death of my new position, but I could never work as a technician. Sometimes you have to smile at the patient knowing that something is abnormal in those images.
I got the call that I needed to come in for some more images. This time, I was more nervous because I had been trying all week to plan lessons for something I had no clue about. When my students' film doesn't come out, why doesn't it? And if you have ever shot photography, is it me or is learning aperture a little tricky? Oh, and darkroom chemicals, how do those work? I felt like a fraud. Also that week, when I went into our finance office to order some supplies, I looked at Cheryl's desk full of purchase orders, mounds of paperwork-filled columns and numbers and stuff, and said, "I could never do your job." She said chuckling, "well, I could never be a teacher, so we're even."
I was feeling so scattered that when I showed up for the second mammogram, I realized I had forgotten my wallet when I went to get my money for the co-pay. They took me anyway, and when I was in the room with the technician, she said, "I will let you know that this is not going to be very pleasant." Ugh, okay. I thought to myself, just breath, it's all you can do. She was right. It was not pleasant. But it still wasn't really the worst pain I have ever experienced. I used it as a time to practice breathing.
But it still happened. I panicked. I realized that she was trying to get a particular shot. There was an area of my breast that she kept squeezing the heck out of. I closed my eyes and thought about my breathing. I assume she had no idea that I was concerned. I went back to the dressing room to get dressed and was on the verge of tears. Just as I finished pulling my shirt over my head, a woman with a beautiful, warm face and handshake said in a run-on sentence, "Hi Heather, I am Doctor Bryant we will see you next year everything is fine." When she left, I thought, I could NEVER do HER job. I went out to my car and wept. I was both relieved and upset about the upcoming year. Somehow I would get through it. Maybe I would use it as a year to breath.

Definition: During an ice storm, the thick, clear coating of ice covering surfaces is known as glaze or glaze ice. It is formed when supercooled water droplets known as freezing rain come in contact with cold surfaces on the ground. It is one of the most hazardous types of winter precipitation. Surfaces coated with glaze are very slick and the ice is heavy often causing damages to plants, trees, buildings, and powerlines.

Thesaurus' came in very handy when I was essay writing in Uni and are still very relevant to me as a search marketing professional today. The thesaurus is my number 1 keyword research tool and the perfect resource for finding synonyms or related keywords. The beauty of using a thesaurus is that a bulk of keyword research has been done for you by thesaurus publishers. My favourite online thesaurus site is Thesaurus.com. Visual Thesaurus is also a handy tool if you are after a visual representation of keyword relationships (but it requires an annual subscription of about $20). I'd rather keep things simple by sticking with Thesaurus.com. Better still, thesaurus.com used in combination with the AdWords Keyword Tool is a clincher for your keyword research efforts.
How to Use Thesaurus.com and AdWords Keyword Tool
Type in your keyword in Thesaurus.com (in this example I typed in "architect") – it should generate a list of results
Copy the URL- I copied "http://thesaurus.com/browse/architect" for this example
Go the AdWords Keyword Tool – then copy and paste the thesaursus URL in the website text field.
AdWords Keyword tool crawls the specific page on thesaurus.com and returns even more keyword results
This not only helps you leverage two very powerful keyword tools at the same time but also ensures that no stones are left unturned over the course of your keyword research.

Neuropathic pain — pain that results from a malfunction in the nervous system — is a daily reality for millions of Americans. Unlike normal pain, it doesn't go away after the stimulus that provoked it ends, and it also behaves in a variety of other unusual and disturbing ways.
Someone suffering from neuropathic pain might experience intense discomfort from a light touch, for example, or feel as though he or she were freezing in response to a slight change in temperature.
A major part of the answer to the problem of neuropathic pain, scientists believe, is found in spinal nerve cells that release a signaling chemical known as GABA. These GABA neurons act as a sort of brake on pain impulses; it's thought that when they die or are disabled the pain system goes out of control. If GABA neurons could be kept alive and healthy after peripheral nerve or tissue injury, it's possible that neuropathic pain could be averted.

I'm not even going to sweat the loss to Seattle today...the Royals just ran into a buzzsaw named Michael Pineda. This guy looks to be the real deal and a half, and if this keeps up, it'll make it an extra-interesting tidbit this Summer for the M's -- with as poor an offense as they have, they're not going to win much, so the possibility of trading Felix Hernandez will loom large.
Alright...I lied. I will sweat one thing, and that was Ned Yost's decision to have Jarrod Dyson bunt in the 8th inning. It was silly -- Dyson isn't a good hitter, but he does have a good batting eye and is able to get on-base via the walk. The Royals were down two runs with no outs at that point, so giving an out away in order to get the opportunity to score just one of the runs you'd need to tie isn't smart at all.
Also, with Dyson's speed, the possibility of a double-play should have been much reduced (and indeed he ended up beating out a double-play on that at-bat). So, with the decent chance Dyson could draw a walk, much less actually (gasp!) get a hit, why take the bat out of his hands? Or, better yet, why not have Alcides Escobar steal 2nd, where then a sacrifice gets him to 3rd -- and then even an out would score him? Sacrificing Escobar to 2nd base still means they would've needed a hit to drive him in.
Questionable, Yost.
Another thing that could become questionable very quickly is what Yost does with Chris Getz, now that he's performing more Chris Getz-like. I wouldn't necessarily say he should go against what he's done initially -- if Getz was named the starter at 2nd base, fine, I wouldn't suggest yanking him after a few poor games when he had the great start.
However, Yost has to know that his best offensive lineup features Getz sitting on the bench, and Mike Aviles starting at 2B with the still white-hot Wilson Betemit starting at 3rd, defense be damned. Getz doesn't provide enough defense to cover for the offensive jump from him to Aviles, and the Royals need to try to get Betemit more plate appearances at the moment.
We'll see how quick he is to pull the trigger, but I'll say this much -- with as quickly as he's given days off to Alex Gordon, Kila Ka'aihue, Aviles, and others for various reasons (including struggling at the plate), I'm going to start to wonder about Yost's sanity if he continues to play Getz every day while he's slumping with the bat.
Getz, Billy Butler, and Alcides Escobar are the only Royals who haven't had a day off yet. For two of those three players, that makes perfect sense -- guess which one doesn't make as much sense? You get three guesses, but the last two don't count.
Other things:
- The match-up vs. the Cleveland Indians will test some things -- the Royals have faced only one team that early in the season has scored well, and that team (the Chicago White Sox) tagged them for 16 runs in the two game series. The Indians are also scoring well, so this may be a true barometer of the Royals pitching staff, who to this point has done fairly well, but has faced some absolutely anemic offenses (especially in the Twins and Mariners)
- I'm now pretty much expecting something positive each game from Billy Butler, Gordon, and Betemit at the plate, whether it's hits of some sort or a walk (and Gordon's walked very little to this point). It won't happen, but I'm confident in them at the plate. Another thing Yost will need to consider (read: need to do), is hit Betemit 5th until such time as he cools off. He's simply a better hitter than Kila from the left side.
- Blake Wood has looked good so far, but I'll wait for a few more appearances before having any real confidence in him.
- The next 10 games will be very, very telling for the Royals in 2011. If they managed to do well in the 7 games vs. the Indians while holding their own against the Texas Rangers, then I will officially have hope of them contending for the AL Central title this year. That hope probably wouldn't fill a thimble, but hey, it'll be there.
Go Blue!

U.S. Senator Deb Fischer announced today she has written a letter to the farm bill conferees to bring their attention to significant livestock losses in western Nebraska due to the severe snow storm earlier this month.
In the letter, Fischer highlighted Nebraska's significant cattle losses to make the case for a speedy reauthorization of the Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP), which will be included in the final farm bill conference report. LIP provides assistance to producers for livestock deaths resulting from disaster.
Citing the substantial economic impact suffered by livestock producers because of the severe weather combined with drought conditions throughout the region in recent years, she writes, "LIP support would provide some modest assistance to Nebraska producers struggling through these difficult economic times for their industry."
On October 5 and 6, a snow storm reaching blizzard conditions struck the Nebraska counties of Dawes, Sioux, Box Butte and Sheridan. Nebraska Emergency Management Officials estimate cattle deaths resulting from the storm number 3,000-5,000 within western Nebraska counties.

CAT 2011 will take place between 22nd October & 18th November 2011. That leaves you with less than 60 days to prepare for it. Worried? Don't be!
CAT 2011 will take place between 22nd October and 18th November 2011. That leaves you with less than 60 days to prepare for it. If you haven't started your preparations yet, I'm assuming you're already in panic mode. Especially since CAT 2011 is going to be different from previous years.
So how do you start and from where should you start?
1.Do a SWOT analysis: This means that you should analyse your Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (i.e. SWOT). Take a mock test (even if you are not well-prepared). You will immediately get to know which areas need to be worked upon (work on your weakness), which areas need just improvements (fortify your strengths), which areas will help you score the most (exploit your opportunities) and which areas can be avoided (steer clear of threats).
2.Know Your Syllabus: Instead of randomly picking up topics to prepare, get hold of the complete list of areas that you need to cover. The syllabus for CAT is never constant, but can get a better picture of the various topics here. Post the syllabus in front of your study table and keep ticking off topics you're confident about. This is an excellent way to keep track of what you know/don't know and take some stress off your mind.
3. Practice makes you Perfect: This did not become a well-known saying for no reason! It is extremely important to take as many mock tests as possible. Since you only have 2 months left, start with at least 1 mock test every day. In the last week, take only 2-3 tests. Make sure you simulate the actual CAT atmosphere while taking these tests (i.e. take computer-based tests, sit in a classroom-like area, take the entire test in one go). Doing so will help you in 3 ways:
•It will increase your test-taking speed.
•It will condition you to take computer-based tests.
•It will help you overcome panic.
•It will give you a clear picture about the topics you're weak in.
Only taking mock tests won't help. You should follow up every test with an in-depth analysis so that you can pin-point your weak areas and work on them. Join a test series of a good coaching centre (IMS, TIME, Career Launcher etc.) Not only do they provide excellent sample tests, they also provide comprehensive analysis for every test.
4. History does Repeat itself! : Get hold of questions from previous years' CAT exams and try solving them. Though you may not find questions being repeated, you will get a fair idea about the kind of questions that CAT 2011 will throw at you. The pattern of the exam would be different this year, but that should not bother you, since the topics remain the same.
5.Get familiar with not just CAT but also the MOUSE! : CAT went from being a paper-based test to a computer -based test from 2009 onwards. So make sure that your mock tests are always taken on a computer. Students tend to get jittery and nervous in an examination hall and things can get worse if you are not comfortable taking an exam using a computer and a mouse.
6. Two Heads are Better than One: In fact the more heads, the merrier! Form study groups if they work for you. Studying with like-minded students helps you retain more of what you learn. But make sure that your study group friends are as serious about CAT preparation as you are and that you don't end up wasting time in mindless chatter!
7.Discipline is very Important: Plan your preparation calendar and stick to it! Two months is too short a time period to be wasted in procrastination. What you do/not do every day would impact your CAT score. So get out of the panic mode and get into the study mode NOW!
What matters eventually is the quality of your preparation and not quantity. There are many students who have put in 6-8 weeks of dedicated efforts and have sailed through CAT into IIMs and other top B-schools. So don't lose hope! You still stand a good chance if you start studying now!

I really like Tulo and I figure I will probably take him, but you cant go wrong with Hanley. I think Tulo will be better because Hanley wont have his speed forever, and I like Tulo's bat a little more than Hanley's. Itll be close, what do you guys think?

Filezilla and 1and1 *Help*
Hello everyone,
I extremely new to webhosting and web design so please bare with me.
I have setup an account with 1and1, the unlimited package, as I will need to host a number of websites.
Im using filezilla as my FTP client also.
My problem is that I can connect to my host no problem, but when I try to set up a 'new site', the files I uploaded to my original site are there already on the new site...? Not sure what or how to host properly, please help!

Your first mistake is in using 1&1 as their reputation is not good. Past that ...
Ralph is correct in assuming that you're not setting up your Addon domains correctly (not using the control panel provided). If you're provided cPanel, use the Addon tool to add a domain and be sure to specify distinct subdirectories of the main domain for each addon domain - don't worry, they will be addressed directly (bypassing the main domain's structure). Some hosts add a basic file or two (so visitors don't crash and burn when coming to an empty, just created website) but it's your job to populate the new directories for each sub/addon domain.
Like Ralph, I'm not a 1&1 client so I don't know their setup but cPanel is ubiquitous so you shouldn't have any problems. If you do, cpanel.com has good documentation (on the standard installation).

Yes, I agree . . . 1&1 should be avoided at all costs!!! Usually if you have a reseller account you use at least 2 different tools: one is something similar to WHM (Web Hosting Manager) to set up accounts, and then something similar to cPanel (Control Panel) to manage the account, upload files, add email accounts, modify the domain record, etc. Contact your hosting provider and ask them to give you some assistance in getting going with this. They also usually have some videos or help documents on their website.

With the Noles still searching for a DC to replace Stoop, should the Noles make a move?Former Defensive Coordinator at Miami, strong ties to South Florida and had one of the more aggressive defenses in the Sun Belt. Although I am pro Geoff Collins, Cristobal would be a good choice too.

Lipstick on my cheek
vendredi 6 juin 2008 à 11:56 - Lala - I sing
Calirezo : lyrics (paroles) - vocals (voix)
Marc Houri : music (musique) - guitar (guitare)
J'ai écrit cette chanson pour ma grand-mère, à la fin de l'été dernier...
Did you sleep last night ?
Give me your coat, she said
Did you eat something ?
Night is so long on the road...
Then I folded her in my arms,
a lump in my throat
I gripped her close to me
deeply moved, violently lost
Did you drive too long ?
Never seen dark rings
Under your blue eyes before
Please take a seat my dear...
Then I folded her in my arms
too many tears in my eyes
I held her very close to me
and kissed her on the cheek ... softly
Did you put lipstick on my face ?
She asked with lost eyes
I can't go out with a stain on my cheek...
Did you hear the church bells ?
They put flowers everywhere, my dear
they sent letters everyday, my child
Don't you think winter is early this year ?
Do you think he feels the cold on his grave ?
Then I folded her in my arms
a broken heart on my chest
a broken soul next to mine
Did you put lipstick on my cheek ?
She asked

Nestled at the bottom of ESPN LA's article on Jimmy Buss having no intention of ever trading Kobe was this delectable little nugget:
There weren't warm-and-fuzzy feelings toward Stern, however, when the three-team trade between the Houston Rockets, New Orleans Hornets and Lakers was vetoed on the eve of training camp, blocking the Lakers from receiving Chris Paul.
"Basically, we had a deal and the commissioner didn't think that it was a good deal and he has every right to veto it," Buss said. "It shocked us. I was in (Lakers general manager) Mitch (Kupchak's) office when that happened and I was ducking from things that he was throwing against the wall."
We knew that Mitch had some fire, but it's nice to see it in action, if only second-hand.


text: Soooooo, what is Matt Flynn's destiny for next season and beyond? The man has the potential to be a starting level QB. Would you rather have a solid backup QB or the high draft pick(s) we could possibly get for him? The Chiefs, Jaguars, Jets, Eagles, and Cardinals all desperately need a QB. You have to imagine that at least one of those teams will get too excited and offer two 2nd round picks for him. What does everybody think?

Emma Sophina was one of the survivors of the Hudson miracle of Flight 1549. The Aussie beauty has now expressed her gratitude to the pilot, the hero of the incident, through her song. Emma Sophina's song is titled "Send another prayer". The inspiration for the song, with its soul-searching lyrics and tune reflects the prayers of the passengers as the aircraft landed on the Hudson River. This has been acknowledged by Emma Sophina, a devout Christian. Emma Sophina believes that it was the power of intense prayer that saved them from the disaster. She thinks people feared the worst and apprehended that inevitably the aircraft would sink in the Hudson. So they mumbled prayers and probably made confessions and wishes.
The pop artist recorded the song recently at the Melody Club Studio, New Jersey. It is expected to be a hit. This is because, during this Valentine's Day season, people buy records with soul-searching songs. Especially at the trying times of recession, people in fact need to do a bit of soul searching than indulge in material pleasures.
It seems being rescued from a sinking aircraft was not the only boon for the blond singer, Emma Sophina. A promising growth in her career is also likely to ensue.

TEDx SP
Nice to meet you, visitors from outside Brazil!
Exceptionally this post will be written in English (desculpa aí, amigos brasileiros!). Let me explain why:
This week, on May 26th, we'll give a talk at the Gov 2.0 Conference in Washington DC, which is really really cool. We'll be there introducing the American public to our project Votenaweb.com, which will soon be launched in other 4 countries! We'll ask people there at the conference to visit our website. So we thought it would be polite to receive them with a post in English. Isn't it cute?
Let me tell you then who we are. We're a company created only a bit more than a year ago, to use technology to create civic engagement and – why not – make the world a better place. From then on we did so many things that it feels like we've been working for decades! We were among the people who brought TED to Brazil – we curated and organized the TEDxSP conference last November. We edit a cool magazine on values called Gotas – the first issue discusses transparency, the second one wants to make a concrete impact on a neighborhood. We are also about to launch a very cool and fun website called Duelo Tube, which lets youtube videos fight with each other! And we work for a state government (the state of Minas Gerais) providing information services to the public. Not to mention a hundred other projects we've been dreaming about.
Thanks for passing by. I hope you come back one day. If by any chance you need a hand from passionate people in Brazil, just let us know.

It is nothing new to anyone that there are several regions in the world with difficulties to obtain drinking water. In Saudi Arabia, for example, there is really no water at all. Brazil does not suffer from this problem, even in its semi-arid region there is water, because there is rain. Besides, Brazil has the largest aquifer in the world, the Guarani. The question presented by the ad-man Danilo Mendes at TEDx SP was a solution to deliver water using technology. The idea was to produce water.
Not just did he think about it, but he also applied it. And he has invented a machine that makes water. Do you want to know how? Watch the video in which Danilo presents his machine at TEDx SP.

Victor Araújo has been on the road for 20 years now, not only professionally, but in his life, with a career spanning 10 years, and four as a professional and a classical piano promise in the country. This may be a quantitatively short trail, but one that already draws great attention.
His great challenge is part of his greatest determination: to combine erudite with popular music, as he did at his performance at TEDx SP, with the intent to break down the prejudice that erudite music is difficult to comprehend.
An example, not necessarily because of his age, but because of his dedication and enthusiasm noticed in his eyes when he is on stage.

He went on stage a little shy, but soon the designer from Rio de Janeiro, Flávio Deslandes, loosened up in order to share with the audience of TEDx SP his invention. He has designed and idealized a bike made of bamboo. Actually, he has made more than ten types of bikes using native bamboo from Brazil, moved by the ideal to create an instrument that would strengthen the harmonious relationship between bikes and the city.
Living in Denmark since 2000, Flávio has developed a bike for the brand Biomega and submitted that to a resistance test, in which a bike is submitted to a force greater and greater, until it breaks. The machine performing the test broke before the bike did, a sign of work, dedication and research on the idea. In the process, the designer even created special machines and tools to work with the material. According to him, "it's necessary to see Brazil's riches and to work with them, because we have a lot of creative people with excellent labour skills".
The interesting thing is to effectively see the will-power and effort turning ideas into something concrete, as in the case of the bamboo bike.

She's a computing designer and has presented the site Many Eyes to the audience at TEDx SP. The site aims to change complex statistics into visually easy to understand graphics. "It's very hard when information is delivered in massive amounts of data in spreadsheets" Fernanda confirms.
Then came Many Eyes. At that site any person can insert data, and the site changes them into graphics that can be understood by a glance. As mentioned, even a Brazilian soap opera can be an example. The exemplification made all the audience laugh, when they realized they could follow the entire plot without even watching it on TV.
Fernanda shows this project that is very much in tune with the TEDx SP proposition: to share ideas, possibilities and to pave ways which indicate a harmonious world. And she does all that, making us laugh.

Where comes from the unconscious gaze taking people to have exceptional ideas? Could be the moment? Could be the place? Maybe it's just the way how we see the occurrences in front of us, the way how we notice them. To the advertiser and musician Jarbas Agnelli it's "possible to see poetry anywhere, depending on the way we see". And he did just that.
During some time, Jarbas was divided into music and commercials direction. In doubt he's decided to be with both and has created the AD Studio. There, designers and animators work alongside with musicians in the creative process for movies. Especially in music they had a good experience with the band Avenida Paulista which placed hits on radios of London. As advertiser he had prominence as the only Brazilian to win the Grand Clio, American advertising award in addition to have worked more than 13 years for the agency W/Brasil.
In his speech at TEDxSP, Jarbas shared the story of the picture which was the origin for the composition "Birds on the wire". The song has traveled for thousands of homes through Internet and has won a proportion greater than he thought. An account which makes us believe that good ideas can come from inconceivable places and accomplishment depends only on the will power.

Jim Larranaga says the Verizon Center is "not just any other arena."
The Miami coach returned to the scene of his greatest triumph Wednesday, leading the Hurricanes' practice in the same building where his George Mason team beat Connecticut to advance to the Final Four seven years ago.
Larranaga is in a different league now, leading Atlantic Coast Conference champion and top seed Miami against fourth-seeded Marquette in Thursday's East Regional semifinals.
Even though he's moved on from George Mason, Larranaga hasn't changed. He greeted old friends in the arena before gathering his players and telling them: "You know why they call it the Sweet 16? It's sweet! Let's go."

The Anthropocene Epoch
I heard an interesting interview on NPR while driving home today. Some scientists are arguing that we are entering a new geological epoch, characterized by human impact on the planet. The proposed name is the Anthropocene Epoch. The last 12,000 years have been classified as the Holocene Epoch.
The scientists interviewed gave some examples of how human actions were recorded geologically. With the widespread cultivation of arable lands, fossil records will show the shift from grasslands and forests to farm fields. Rising ocean temperature and acidity may threaten coral activity, which would also be noticeable in fossil records. Development has drastically changed the ways in which sediments are moved and deposited.
I'm not really writing this with any strong opinion, though some of the changes are clearly problematic. It's just strange to think that the actions of our species will be recorded in the very geology of our planet. We've come a long way (for mostly-hairless monkeys).
Check the interview here.

On my way home, I stopped by a book store to pick up June's issue of Vogue Japan. I thought it would be fun to share some of the pictorials from the magazine.
Head piece: Rochas. Sunglasses: Piers Atkinson. Top: Jil Sander.
I adore the sunglasses in the photo above (don't be surprised if you see me wearing them in the near future :P) and I'm intrigued by the texture and colors of the head piece.
Top & shorts: Balenciaga. Sunglasses: Hotel De Ville. Bangle: David Webb.
Love the Hair and the bangles in both the photo above and below, but I'm not sure about the semi-tiger print shorts above. This is an outfit that I can see Yuli from yuliconversations.blogspot.com pulling off :)
Top: Marc Jacobs. Shorts & belt: Balmain. Sunglasses: Cutler and Gross. Bangles: David Webb.
LOVE the two-toned Marc Jacobs print top, the shorts and the bangles, but I'm not a fan of the championship belt.
Top & Skirt by Emilio Pucci. Shoes by Charlotte Olympia.
I'm a big fan of prints and this print is just lovely. Also, I love how well those wedges work with the outfit.
The next three photo are just brilliant pieces of art. I would definitely hang these pictures up in my apartment.
Top & Skirt by DOLCE & GABBANA.
I have an affinity for black and white photos.
Top & dress by Oscar De La Renta.
Don't you just love the colors in the photo above...I do! I love this photo on so many different levels.

this wiki
Angelica Baggins was a Hobbit of the Shire.
Angelica was born in TA 2981 (SR 1381). She was the daughter of Ponto Baggins II and the grand-niece of Bilbo Baggins, and the granddaughter of Gilly Brownlock. Angelica was young at the time of Bilbo's Farewell Birthday Party and was noted for her vanity and considered her face to be quite shapely. She received a round convex mirror from her uncle Bilbo after the Birthday Party. She apparently never married.[1][2]
Like many Female hobbits, Angelica was named after flower or a jewel.
Portrayal in AdaptationsEdit
Video GamesEdit
In The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (video game), she was seen around Bywater and was sad to see that Frodo was leaving. Ironically, she claimed his visit was taking him "practically to the end of the world" (thinking he was going to Crickhollow) unaware of how correct her comment was.
Her she was played by Kath Soucie.

Solaris Reviews
ChipboardPosted : 1 year, 7 months ago on 1 February 2013 05:13
2hrs of gut wrenching, mind numbing, head melting boredom.
If you value two hours of your life then do not watch this film.
The only people I've found who actually watched this and say they liked it is people who thought Razorhead and films of that ilk was good cinema.
2 stars simply for the eye candy.
Go and paint the garden fence, you'll have way more fun, trust me!

Solaris reviewPosted : 2 years, 3 months ago on 24 May 2012 07:14
Rarely does a film entrance me with the kind of atmosphere and ideas that Tarkovsky's films do. He is the master of nostalgia, of the great struggles with reality and memory, of morality and selfishness. Can one escape a mistake from the past? How do you possibly learn from a mistake like that while simultaneously putting it behind you and out of your mind? At what point does tragedy lose its impact? In this film, Tarkovsky shows how real these memories can be for people, despite the decades that have passed. Dr. Kelvin is sent on a mission to go to the space station docked at the mysterious planetary object dubbed Solaris, which seems to be having peculiar effects on its inhabitants. Of the team sent there to research the planet's great oceans, only two remain. The rest have either left or succumbed to their ailments, tormented by apparitions conjured by Solaris. But not just any apparitions, these are personal ghosts of the individuals on-board the space station—in fact, the most personal. Kelvin, who never really got over his ex-girlfriend Hari's suicide, now seems to have a chance to start anew, or at least find some sort of closure in this apparition… but what exactly is it? "It" knows that it is not Hari, that it looks and feels and talks and remembers just like Hari, but it is not human and cannot age and cannot die. There is a memorable scene where Kris Kelvin, stricken by a fever, begins to see Hari everywhere he looks. He cannot imagine ever leaving Hari, nor loving someone like he loves her now. But this is not Hari. Who is Hari? Did he love Hari? If Hari is dead, the only thing left of her is Kelvin's memory of her, which is what this apparition seems to be… so is she not Hari? Is this apparition part of Kelvin himself? As Kelvin slowly becomes an island of a man, the film wraps up with what is one of the greatest closing shots I've seen, cementing itself as a true masterpiece that reveals the emotional and moral power of science fiction.

SolarisPosted : 2 years, 6 months ago on 28 February 2012 02:48
In "Solaris" Russian director glances from the cosmos to the earth, to man. Tarkovsky does not make a trip "to infinity and beyond", but to the inner world of man. "I consider it my duty to encourage reflection on the specifically human and the eternal that lives within each of us," wrote Tarkovsky. It is no coincidence nor a matter of "resources", that special effects have been reduced to a minimum in the film, and the space station that hovers over the ocean presents a neglected aspect intelligent "home" very earthy, which presented a house whose owner is absorbed by other issues and never found the time to fix the leaky faucet or light socket ... Ironically, no other film has so many traces of Tarkovsky humanly mundane as "Solaris" (Vera Ivanova).
Tarkovsky adapted a novel by Stanislav Lem's sci-fi, and does so in his day many thought the Russian response to Kubrick's 2001. I do not think that I and my brain are prepared to say whether or not there is a relationship between these two films. It is sufficiently dense, hard, intense and interesting to also compare them. In any case, beyond science fiction, Solaris is a deep study of human nature, love and loneliness.
Solaris has, in short, the story of a man who travels to a space station to investigate the death of one of the inhabitants of the station, and look for strange phenomena that occur there.
The story presents us perfectly, in about forty minutes long, which gives us some keys to understanding what happens next. Tarkovsky's camera is accurate, but deeply cold and distant. During the next two hours we see a dense sampling of the Solaris effects in humans. Here Tarkovsky shows at times intense and at times impenetrable. I personally am interested in what I see, but I am unable to draw any conclusions about what I've seen. It's all too tight.
Solaris is almost three hours of film difficult, personal, and definitely interesting, but that challenges deeply assimilative capacity of the viewer.
Special mention, of course, the dialogues, which are essential parts of a script flawless, like all great films of Russian director (at least until "Stalker"). The world of "Solaris" is not aseptic and clean the world of "2001: A Space Odyssey" with its wide array of special effects and dazzling display of ships and flying machines (some impossible), with a striking design, convincing and realistic than almost anything you see on the screen there today...

You Don't Need Lasers to Make A Good Sci-Fi FlickPosted : 5 years, 4 months ago on 16 April 2009 05:33
This film is an excellent example of what can happen when all of the effort of special effects is replaced with maximum effort into the script.
Definitely a thinking man's science fiction film whose intellect sacrifice none of the science nor none of the fiction.
The plot utilizes the fantasy element of the genre to delve intricately into themes of the pysche such as regret, love, pity, self-inflection & even the most monumental of these concepts, the justification of life and death. It does so with enough room to allow the viewer with no other answer other than the store of reflection which he or she carries into film, before & after.
Despite an incrimately moving pace that many of today movie-watchers may at first be uncomfortable with, once you settle into it's richly layered rythym, Solaris is a great film whose provocation of thought is as richly satisfying as is the grandest world-demolishing visuals of any other more explosive sci-fi films.

Well worth the almost 3 hoursPosted : 7 years, 7 months ago on 17 January 2007 11:39
I looked up the review for this in an old movie guide I used to use (Video Hound) and I was surprised that it gave it a fairly low rating. It focused on a negative comparison with 2001 and complained that there was too much talking in the film. This strikes me as a strong indication of cultural bias, as thought the Russians weren't allowed to have their own investigation of memory and the symbolic place of outer space. Which is to say that if you just want to compare movies to 2001 this isn't the movie for you.
That review couldn't have been any more misleading. This film is loaded with long saturated shots that make you feel like you're watching someone's old family photos come to life.
--semi spoiler warning--
The plot is simple but captivating: a dead loved one comes back to life. This is equal parts curse and blessing. This movie fleshes out most of the nuances of this scenario while maintaining a sustained mediation on memory and visual reproduction. A must for those who like Videodrome type movies.

Good for Nix. The wishy-washy standoff is over.
The NBA is proving what happens when the players start controlling the league. Bad news.
I'm proud Buddy decided to do what they don't have the balls to do in Minnesota.
I'm sorry, but if you want to play in the NFL, you should be at camp. If it's too tough for you, but you still like to play the games, tough doo-doo. Man up, Brett. Cowboy up, Aaron. Schobel said he was "relieved, happy, and a weight lifted off his shoulder" when he heard Nix's decision. That just confuses me. No wonder Bing can market itself as the 'decision maker' search engine. I used to wonder what kind of a person wants someone else making big decisions for them. Now I know. Does Aaron needs to go ask his mom and dad what team he should play for?
That may be a bit harsh for a man like Schobel, who I have great respect for otherwise, but someone needs to put a stop to this silly game.
If all the GMs decided to discontinue allowing Farve behavior, these guys wouldn't have the option to dog training camp, and there wouldn't be this stupid grey line between "the guy has proven enough to skip camp," and "miss practice, loose your job."
Good on you, Buddy. Be a role model for the other wussy GMs.
Some will say that as long as Brett is winning games for the Vikes, there are undesirable, but allowable behaviors. This brings up the debate on how far should teams go to win? Should NFL players, as role models, be allowed to create their own rules once they reach a certain status level? Is that a good message to sent to the kids? Where does this fall into the cost of winning?
The way I understand it, Buffalo is likely to keep AS from going elsewhere without compensation, and they can do that by keeping him on the "did not report list" all season, so they do have leverage in the situation, but I also assume Aaron could 'retire,' which would terminate his contract, and then sign on somewhere else, ala Farve. If I'm wrong on these details, speak up. Also, this is obviously reactionary, given the time frame of the events and this post, so I'd like to hear if this thought process isn't logical.
Here's a piggy-back poll from today's front page Gailey poll:
