The quantity of iron in body is carefully regulated, primarily by control of iron absorption, and excess total body iron can be extremely toxic. Since humans have no mechanism for elimination of excess iron, multiple transfusions of red blood cells, which are required for the management of a number of disorders, inevitably result in iron overload. Cumulative iron overload, in turn, leads to iron toxicity with organ dysfunction and damage.This review examines the relationship between iron metabolism and hematologic disorders treated with multiple transfusions, with emphasis on the diagnosis and current methods of management of iron overload and toxicity in transfusion-dependent patients. Primarily using key words, we identified and reviewed more than 100 pertinent articles in English and other languages in the Medline database plus an additional number of abstracts of presentations at recent meetings of relevant scientific associations.Transfusion-dependent disorders include those characterized by decreased red blood cell production, increased red blood cell destruction, or chronic blood loss. Patients receiving chronic transfusion therapy should be screened and monitored for iron overload, yet in our opinion, this is not always done routinely. Once iron overload has been identified, it should be treated to reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality from iron toxicity, which particularly affects the liver and heart.Increased awareness of the risks of iron overload from chronic transfusion therapy should result in greater use of interventions such as iron chelation to reduce total body iron and the risk of long-term sequelae.

And I don't see any actual play value in this thing. You hunt for "cryptids" (animals... I guess). And if you catch a cryptid, it tells you what kind it is. Except that it only recognizes cryptids that you have acquired cards for. So it apparently says, "Unrecognized cryptid" when you catch anything other than the included komodo. That's real brilliant, Mattel.

I'm not a MOTU collector. I'm not actively buying MOTUC, I didn't even buy them at Big lots prices. I don't go after the vintage stuff, primarily as I lack the money and space for it. I've mostly been limited to the misc forums. My sales posts do almost no business- very few items I list up for sale actually move, and I get more business on other sales outlets. I did sell one toy this week to a member, but it's been mailed to the buyer as of yesterday.
I've severely cut back toy collecting to a bare minimum, putting money to other things I want. I had to completely purge my Monster High collection due to dental bills but I find I'm not interested in the line much anymore to go back to collecting them. I'm also now something of a jerkwad, a fact I don't think I can change, and I've said "sorry" to so many people over the years I've grown sick of saying it. Rather than turn this into another falling out situation such as what happened between me as Joe Customs I'd rather just leave.

Celtics-Trail Blazers Game Day Blog: Second Quarter
|12.05.08 at 6:40 pm ET
At the half … Celtics 49, Trail Blazers 36
FIRST HALF WRAP: The Trail Blazers have been hot but their youth and inexperience is falling short against the Celtics. After holding their own in the first quarter, the Trail Blazers find themselves down by at the end of the half. Ray Allen leads all scorers with 11 points in a well-balanced game. He is the only player in double-digits. The Celtics have outrebounded the Trail Blazers 23-15 and got to the line 11 more times.
– Leon Powe kicked off the second quarter with a drive and drew a quick foul. With Greg Oden on the bench, the Celtics can capitalize on the extra space in the paint. Pierce is playing with the second unit again, which tonight includes Brian Scalabrine.
– The Spanish duo of Rudy Fernandez and Sergio Rodriguez are playing together. Fernandez has been hyped for so long and I'm very interested in seeing what he can do in the NBA. After all, not every player is greeted by a swarm of fans when they touch down in Portland.
– Notable substitutions: Brandon Roy stretched in between quarters and has returned to the game. Gabe Pruitt is also seeing significant minutes in a close game. Pruitt and Eddie House in the backcourt help the Celtics match the Trail Blazers speed.
– Fernandez is trying to guard Perk. Wonder how that's going to work out … (By the way, if Fernandez looks familiar it's probably because of his celebreality look-alike.
– With the lead up to eight, Tony Allen (dressed in street clothes) was on his feet cheering and holding his hand to his ear to encourage the crowd.
Celtics-Blazers Game Blog: First Quarter
|12.05.08 at 6:04 pm ET
We are live from the Garden for tonight's game between the Celtics and the Portland Trail Blazers, and I have to tell you, I've been looking forward to this one since the schedule came out. It's always fun to catch up-and-coming NBA teams before they hit their peak, and for the Blazers their time might not be all that far off.
So, what will it be tonight? Will the champs teach the kids a few lessons? Will the youngsters put on a show? Will Greg Oden get booed? (Actually, we already know that one: yes). Come one come all, for tonight's live-ish blogging extravaganza… Read the rest of this entry »
Preview: Boston Celtics vs. Portland Trail Blazers
|12.05.08 at 12:33 pm ET
On Friday night the Boston Celtics (18-2) will take on the Portland Trail Blazers (14-6) at the TD BankNorth Garden. These are two of the hottest teams in the NBA — the Cs are on a 10-game winning streak while the Trail Blazers have won their last six. The real headline, though, is Greg Oden's debut at the Garden. After missing all of last season with a knee injury, the Celtic that never-was will play his first game under the 17 championship banners that would not have been possible had the Cs landed the top pick in the 2007 draft.
Perk vs. Oden
Kendrick Perkins and Al Jefferson didn't want the Celtics to draft Greg Oden. The tight-knit duo were certain they could lead the Celtics to success together, and the addition of Oden would break up their tandem. Now Perk has a new front court partner in Kevin Garnett, posing a formidable challenge for Oden in the paint. Look for Perk to prove the Celtics made the right decision when he goes up against the rookie who once threatened to take his minutes.
Ray vs. Roy
Brandon Roy's backcourt versatility makes him one of the trickier guards to defend. If Roy were a traditional point guard the Celtics could put Rajon Rondo on him, but given his size and long-range abilities Ray Allen is the better option to stifle his shooting game. Roy leads the Trail Blazers in scoring with 21.1 points per game and is shooting 50% over the last five contests.
In the last five games …
Celtics: 99.5 ppg, 47% FG, 34% 3PG, 76% FT, 43.1 rpg, 21.1 ast
Trail Blazers: 98.7 ppg, 46% FG, 42% 3PG, 77% FT, 41.1 rpg, 21.6 ast
Check back with WEEI's Live Game Day Blog for the latest news and updates from the TD BankNorth Garden.
Checking In with J.R. Giddens and Bill Walker
|12.05.08 at 12:09 am ET
Last month Boston Celtics rookies J.R. Giddens and Bill Walker were assigned to the NBA Development League affiliate Utah Flash. Minutes are hard to come by with the defending world champions and the pair was headed down a road of DNPs. In just a few weeks, though, Giddens and Walker have gone from benchwarmers in Beantown to standouts in Provo. They caught up with WEEI.com in a telephone interview to explain why the grass is still pretty green in Utah.
Some players would rather forgo playing time to stay in the NBA, but you seemed to embrace the D-League. What was your reaction when you found out you were assigned to the Utah Flash?
JG: Well I was excited because I had an idea that I was going down there. My brother and some of my closest people talked about it, how it was going to be a good opportunity to go down there and get into game shape and just gain confidence and become better every day. So whenever I do get the chance from the Celtics to play, then I'll be in the best shape possible and I'll be able to take a good swing at it.
BW: I was excited to have a chance to be able to play again, so I was excited about going. J.R. was already down there and I just welcomed it.
After flying from a major city like Boston to Provo, what was your first impression of Utah?
BW: I just looked at the mountains and I was like, 'Oh I'm not in Boston any more.' I had fell asleep on the plane so that was the first thing I'd seen.
JG: I played in the Mountain West Conference so I had traveled out to this part of Utah before. I was just trying to soak up the culture. I was just trying to get a feel for it and just soak up the atmosphere out here and just enjoy the experience out here in Utah.
J.R. was assigned to the Flash a week before Bill. How excited were you to be playing together again?
JG: Well Bill's my partner in crime so it's like I was excited to have him down here. Just having somebody that you're familiar with and you're friends with playing with you makes it a lot easier … He's made this transition a lot easier for me and I hope that I've done the same for him.
BW: It was fun. He told me all the things the team has been up to and helped me with the plays and everything. So he helped me out with that …You always want to go into something like this with somebody you know because it's a totally different experience if you're by yourself.
Bill, you mentioned before that you enjoyed rooming with Michael Beasley at Kansas State last season. Now you're sharing an apartment with J.R. in Utah. How is having a new roommate?
BW: I wouldn't say I miss living with Mike (laughs). He was just real funny though. Him and J.R. are kind of similar in the effect that they're very funny guys.
Aside from keeping in touch with your teammates, what kind of feedback have you received from (Celtics President) Danny Ainge or (head coach) Doc Rivers?
JG: They just give me words of encouragement … It means a lot because obviously Doc Rivers, that's my coach, so he's pretty high on my priority list. So I'm just happy that he's thinking of me and knows that I'm down here working to help the Celtics out.
You were part of two Opening Nights this season ' one with the Celtics in October and another with the Flash in late November. How did the two compare?
BW: The Garden is definitely a different experience from anything I've ever seen, so I don't think anything is going to be able to top that.
JG: One opening night was a ring ceremony and the other opening night was just kind of introducing the basketball season. There was a lot more tradition in opening night with the Celtics, but the Flash had a great turnout and the fans supported us and you couldn't ask for a better turnout.
It took no time for you to become the leading scorers on the Flash. What kind of improvements have you seen in your game already?
JG: I'm just trying to be efficient and attacking the basket and finding teammates who are open and using my size to rebound and doing just more of whatever I can, whether it's enhance or defense or make somebody better by running the court. Just doing whatever I can to help the team win.
BW: Just trying to cut down on my turnovers right now, pass out of double teams, so that's the only difference. Just learning how to play in a 48 minute game, learning how to play hard but still pace yourself where you have enough to finish the game out.
You went from playing major minutes in college to hardly any in the NBA. What are the challenges in transitioning back to 35, 40, 45 minutes a night?
BW: You get a time where you're on a break and you're body is getting beat up that much because you're not getting any minutes and then all of a sudden you're thrown in there. It doesn't matter how much cardio you do. Until you play in the games, that's the only way you can really, really get into top shape.
JG: When you go from not playing to playing, I'd say the transition's more fun than hard. It's obviously difficult because you're not in game shape and you're trying to catch your rhythm, which you could be frustrated with your game or conditioning at times. But that's just part of the game and you've got to stay patient. I'm just really excited to come back out on the court because, like I said, I'd rather play than not play.
Out of the two of you J.R. was the long-range player, but so far it seems like role reversal. Bill, a power player on the Cs, has actually taken more shots from behind the arc. What sparked your recent 5-for-9 performance?
BW: I've just had more opportunities to shoot the ball down here. With the Celtics you really just play off of the other guys, you're really not a creator. That's probably the biggest difference, just the mentality change.
J.R., you used to compete in three-point shooting contests with Ray Allen after Celtics practice. So far you've shot 2-for-7 from long range. How does your three-point shot feel?
JG: I wouldn't say I'm struggling. We've only played three games and I've taken about six shots, probably less than ten. Now if I had shot like 100 and didn't make that many then I'd say I'm struggling, but no, the three-pointer feels good. It just hasn't been sinking but I feel confident and I know I'll hit a high percentage.
After being away from the team, what do you miss the most about playing with the Boston Celtics?
BW: A lot. Probably being around the guys every day. Just watching KG and those guys play every day because it seems like one of them does something good every game. (Rajon) Rondo just had a triple-double so I missed out on stuff like that.
JG: Just learning everything from being around those guys, seeing how they are every day, and just being in the NBA. It's been my dream and every experience, good and bad, you've just got to take it and just love it.
When you get called back up to the Celtics, which versions of Bill Walker and J.R. Giddens can we expect?
JG: I know I'll be a lot more confident and feel more fluid with my movements on the court and I'll feel like I'm in better shape. Being an athlete I feel like being in games in crucial because you use a certain amount of energy when you're playing. When you're not in game shape you're not as quick and you're not as on point as you normally would be.
BW: Probably a more confident Bill Walker. Just having some game experience on this level and knowing what I can do and what I can't do, so I'm learning the ropes.
Through the first three games of the D-League season, Giddens is averaging a team-high 23.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and shooting 54% FG. Walker is posting 22 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and is shooting 46% FG. To keep up with their progress, visit www.utahflash.com.
Sounds of the game… Celtics 114, Pacers 86
|12.04.08 at 12:30 am ET
So, only 55 more wins until the Celtics set the all-time NBA record for wins in a season. That means the Celtics need to go 55-7 the rest of the way. Based on what we've seen so far this season, there's no reason to think they can't do it. The latest example came on Wednesday. As the Indiana Pacers showed of making a courageous run to stay in the game in the third quarter, Rajon Rondo reminded everyone that he just might be the MVP of the team, lighting it up for 16 points while handing out a career-best 17 assists. Just think, that's MVP Rondo on the same team with Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and vintage Ray Allen, who is tearing it up for the Green so far this season. Now you see why there are those who feel this team may be on the verge of something historic.
Rajon Rondo said driving the basketball has been the key to the offense.
Rondo said he was anxious to return from bloody lip after collision with Indiana's T.J. Ford.
Rondo said Sam Cassell told him how close he was to triple-double in first half.
Ray Allen said Rondo is the catalyst of the team right now.
Allen said Rondo and he go hand-in-hand right now.
Kevin Garnett said it was like there were three Rondos on the court.
Indiana head coach Jim O'Brien's team played the Lakers and Celtics on back-to-back nights. He can see a rematch of last year's NBA Finals.
O'Brien said it was just a case of too much Rondo and no answers.
Hibbert Has Close Ties to Celtics
|12.04.08 at 12:02 am ET
Roy Hibbert never played for the Boston Celtics, but with all of his ties to the organization he might as well have.
When the Celtics landed the fifth pick in the 2007 NBA Draft, all signs pointed to selecting the big man from Georgetown. Hibbert had already impressed Red Auerbach and seemed to have the size and potential to help the struggling Cs.
'Playing for John Thompson, [Red] used to come watch our practices at Georgetown for a number of years,' Hibbert said prior to Wednesday's Boston Celtics-Indiana Pacers game. 'He would talk to me after practice and talk to me about big man stuff, and him and Big John would relive some memories.'
Hibbert made an unexpected decision to return to Georgetown for his senior season and played alongside Doc Rivers' son, Jeremiah. That year Auerbach passed away. In the short time they talked, Auerbach left a lasting impression on him.
'It was nice because he's such a nice person and he obviously knows the game really well,' Hibber said. 'He's coached a lot of great players so any time you get to soak up a minute of his time is always great. I went to his funeral and all his former players came. It was a special moment.'
When Hibbert entered the league in 2008, he was appropriately enough traded to Larry Bird's Indiana Pacers.
'I always grew up a Celtics fan, obviously of Larry,' Hibbert revealed. 'Once you start playing it's all business, no more admiring. You have to go at it every night and it's all business so you have to take care of it.'
On Wednesday night the business at hand was tying to beat the Celtics for the second time this season. Hibbert couldn't afford to be starstruck, even against one of his favorite basketball players.
'Paul (Pierce) [was my favorite] when I was in high school. I have one of his jerseys back home,' he said. 'But it's all business when we get out on the court. It's nice to be able to play against the greatest players in the world right here.'
Pierce and the Celtics may have got the best of the Pacers, but simply being in the house that Red built was special for Hibbert. Auerbach's signature scrawled across the court was a reminder of just how much it meant to know the man behind the organization.
'Obviously I'm going to have to work for everything I get but it was nice that he had confidence in me,' he said. 'I have a long way to go but it nice that great folks like that would take the time to talk to me and see something in me.'
Cowboys to Celtics: Allen Stays the Same
|12.03.08 at 11:45 pm ET
A lot has changed about Tony Allen since he entered the NBA in 2005. From overcoming a gruesome knee injury to winning a championship with the Boston Celtics, Allen is far from the basketball player he was at Oklahoma State University. But that doesn't mean he isn't the same person.
'He was the exact same way,' said former college teammate and current Indiana Pacer Stephen Graham. 'I don't think he's changed a bit.'
It has been over three years since Allen and Graham led the Cowboys to the NCAA Final Four. On Wednesday night they were pitted against each other when the Celtics defeated the Pacers. Graham laughed as he recalled Allen's antics and was not surprised that he is one of the most animated characters on the Celtics.
'My first impression of him was that he was just a guy who didn't want to be bothered by nobody. He was kind of quiet when he first came to school,' Graham recalled. 'But when everybody loosened up, he was the guy who wanted to be in the main scene all the time. He's pretty much like that now.'
Allen still keeps his teammates loose in the Celtics locker room. He can often be found cracking jokes or rapping loudly to one of his favorite artists.
'For some reason he thought he was Cam'ron,' Graham chuckled.
Allen's role on the court is another story, though. He went from the spotlight to the bench and accepted his responsibilities as a role player. There is enough offense in the Celtics starting lineup that he doesn't have to put the ball in the basket to be effective. Read the rest of this entry »

Mosquitoes Are a Total Buzzkill in UP
A mosquito sample near Highland Park Middle School tested positive for West Nile virus. You know what that means: University Park will fog all parks and school campuses after 9 p.m. tomorrow night. For more info, go here.

…it also means so done will work mosquito larvae in water fountains in every one of his posts, regardless of the original topic. Chuckling…
HP spraying, too: tonight, tomorrow night, and Sunday night.
Wish my neighbors would let me know when their mosquito guy is fogging. Nothing more terrifying than being in your yard and hearing that familiar noise behind the neighbor's fence. Think about it…

Associated Press
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — The Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer said to have been shot and killed by the Boston Marathon bombing suspects has been identified as 26-year-old Sean Collier.
The Middlesex district attorney's office says Collier was a Somerville resident who had worked at MIT since January 2012. Before that, he was a civilian employee of the Somerville Police Department.
MIT Police Chief John DiFava says Collier was a dedicated officer who was liked by his colleagues and the MIT community.
Collier was found shot several times in his vehicle in Cambridge at about 10:30 p.m. Thursday. He was pronounced dead at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Authorities say he was shot by the two suspects in Monday's marathon bombings.

NEW CARLISLE ŌĆö FridayŌĆÖs New Prairie Sectional semifinals were both tales of two halves as Plymouth got off to a strong start but couldnŌĆÖt hold off St. JosephŌĆÖs in the opener, and Culver Girls Academy fell behind by 10 at the half and was never quite able to get over the hump against Marian in the nightcap.
The Pilgrims closed their season with a 51-33 loss, while the defending champion Eagles were unseated by the Knights 46-37, setting the stage for a championship match-up between Marian and the Indians tonight at 7:30 p.m.
Plymouth jumped out to an 19-10 lead, but a 19-4 St. Joe run spanning from the 3:58 mark of the second frame to the 4:44 stop of the third gave the Indians a 23-20 edge. With over four minutes remaining in the third quarter and a one-possession lead, St. Joe opted to pull the ball out, and the Pilgrims laid off of them as the clock wound down for over 3:40.
St. Joe finished off Plymouth with a 22-7 fourth quarter to advance to the championship.
ŌĆ£We were struggling going into that, and we decided to let it run down,ŌĆØ said Plymouth head coach Dave Cox. ŌĆ£Hunter Stevens had three fouls at that point, and we were a little bit gassed. I think we played really, really hard in the first half. I thought we came out and we were struggling to stay ahead. We were already slipping off the pole at that point, and we were hoping that that would bring us back. In the huddle at the end of the quarter we said ŌĆśLook, youŌĆÖve got eight minutes. YouŌĆÖre pretty fresh. TheyŌĆÖre fresh too, but youŌĆÖre pretty fresh. YouŌĆÖre in great shape.ŌĆÖ And then we started having kids do things that theyŌĆÖve never done. The wrong kids taking the ball out, nobody coming to the ball. IŌĆÖll tell you what, itŌĆÖs a mental maturity thing, and IŌĆÖm not going to cover for the kids. I told them in the locker room, youŌĆÖve done a lot of good things this year, but when you get to the tourney, tough-minded kids win, and right now we just werenŌĆÖt tough-minded.ŌĆØ
After surrendering just seven turnovers against the St. Joe press in the first half, Plymouth gave up 14 turnovers in the second half, which the opportunistic Indians capitalized on with 20 points, and the Pilgrims hit just one field goal after the break as they fell apart for a season-ending margin of defeat 14 points worse than the one they sustained in the two teamsŌĆÖ regular season meeting less than two weeks ago.
ŌĆ£We were up and then they hit a couple shots, and we were down like two or three, and we had a couple really decent opportunities to score and we didnŌĆÖt score. We got down five when I called timeout, and by that time you could already see it in their eyes. They had decided,ŌĆØ said Cox. ŌĆ£We are a 6-15 team, and weŌĆÖre a 6-15 team for a reason, and itŌĆÖs probably that reason. IŌĆÖll tell you, as long as IŌĆÖve been doing this, there are two things involved in that. Number one, it only takes one kid to be a trooper and refuse to allow that to affect them. And on the other side of the coin, if a couple of the kids that are perceived as maybe your most mature kids do it, boy, itŌĆÖs tough. ThatŌĆÖs what happened to us, and we just kind of slipped right off the pole and right into the bottom. ItŌĆÖs a shame because it really didnŌĆÖt need to be. I donŌĆÖt know that we could have won the game, donŌĆÖt know that we couldnŌĆÖt, but we certainly couldŌĆÖve been right there at the end.ŌĆØ
Plymouth was led by junior forward Amber RedingerŌĆÖs 16 points and eight rebounds, while freshman forward Stevens finished with seven points before fouling out with 4:03 to go, and junior guard Lauren Tanner put up six points in the loss.
St. Joe was led by Alex KubshŌĆÖs game-high 21 points, all but three points of which were earned in the decisive second half after the senior sat out much of the first half in foul trouble.
The Pilgrims close out their season at 6-15 and will bid good-bye to seniors Victoria Dewar and Brittany Himes, who was sidelined Friday after receiving a concussion in PlymouthŌĆÖs regular season game at St. Joe Jan. 31.
ŌĆ£TheyŌĆÖre program kids. Brittany injured herself the last St. Joe game with a concussion, and it ended her season, ended her career. Dew, a trooper this year, sheŌĆÖs never walked on the best set of legs, which makes mobility a problem. I have to really appreciate those kids. They came into practice every day and worked really hard,ŌĆØ said Cox.
ŌĆ£We surely have a high percentage of our points coming back. What they do with it is whatever they want to do with it. I kind of challenged them in the locker room, and weŌĆÖll see where that goes.ŌĆØ
Mishawaka Marian closed out the first half on a 10-0 run highlighted by a pair of 3s from senior guard Kathleen Kavanagh to take a 21-11 halftime lead, and Culver Girls Academy never got closer than six points the rest of the way as Marian converted11 of 17 free throws in the second half.
CGA converted 4 of 6 3-pointers in the fourth quarter but still couldnŌĆÖt get over the hump against Marian.
ŌĆ£They got a nice run on us to start, we got back in the lead, and they got un a run and got us down 10 at half. Every time we cut into it, they answered,ŌĆØ said CGA head coach Gary Christlieb. ŌĆ£Then late, we were aggressive and we knew that the downfall would be getting them to the free throw line, which is their strength, but we had to try; we had to do something. Give them credit, they answered every run we threw at them.ŌĆØ
CGA could find no answer for Kavanagh, who finished with a game-high 22 points earned at a perfect 8-for-8 clip from the field with a 3-for-4 finish from the stripe.
ŌĆ£KavanaghŌĆÖs a heck of a player,ŌĆØ said Christlieb. ŌĆ£We knew what she was capable of. SheŌĆÖs been a thorn in our side for quite some time.ŌĆØ
The Eagles were led by 11 points from senior guard Lindsay Haller, who played through illness to finish with 11 points, while junior combo player Andrijana Cvitkovic finished with eight points, nine rebounds and four blocks.
CGA closes the year at 13-8 and loses three seniors in Haller, point guard Andrea Lin and Monique Novoa.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre optimistic. WeŌĆÖve got to do some things. Andrea Lin was playing great at the end of the season handling the ball; weŌĆÖve got to replace that,ŌĆØ Christlieb said. ŌĆ£Lindsay was shooting the ball well and really starting to stretch the defense out for us, which really opened things up for Andi and Victoria. Monique was just kind of the all-around player. She rebounded, she got some tough buckets, she would set a screen when you needed one.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖll have to replace those kids, but weŌĆÖve got some experience with some of the other kids. Hopefully weŌĆÖve got some kids that can step up and get working at it.ŌĆØ

WASHINGTON -- Social media has changed the way people get weather information, for better and for worse.
Savvy social media users know that bad information can spread just as fast as useful or actionable content -- and weather information is not exempt from the trend.
The term "polar vortex" resurfaced in July when a cool airmass oozed southward from Canada. Through social media, the catchy classification again spread like a common cold.
Experts weighed in. The Mid-Atlantic's bout with cool weather was merely a look-a- like. It was not a violent, whirling maelstrom of mayhem but instead, a welcome reprieve from the summer heat.
The next time a weather forecast that highlights an eye-catching moniker appears on a news feed, think twice before buying into the hype.
Recently, some online weather forecasts have been conflated with scientific lingo. As these terms course through social networks, the essence of the forecast is lost.
More recently, a new strain of "cyber weather flu" has been making the rounds on social media. Over the last week, Twitter users began seeing posts about a large-scale weather pattern known to meteorologists as a "rex block."
A rex block is a high altitude weather pattern that forces weather systems to zigzag between large high and low pressure areas, effectively gumming up the works in the polar jet stream, the main weather highway across North America.
The posts were based on medium to long-range forecasts generated by computer weather models.
"The upper level pattern looked rex-blockish two days ago but is looking more progressive now," says Alex Liggitt, executive producer of weather at ABC7 News.
Liggitt says the takeaway should be the cool weather that is forecast to arrive by early next week, with the complexities of the forecast as an aside.
"High temperatures may only be around 80 degrees to end the month... 8 degrees below average."
Mentions of the polar vortex and rex block have since waned. But their hashtags lie latently in the dark corners of cyberspace.
Cyber weather flu is transmitted through the veins of social media, conflating the jargon and the users' expectations.
"With social media, it gets retweeted and retweeted, [whether] it's the polar vortex or the derecho, and nobody knows what they're retweeting or comprehending what they're reading," says ABC7 meteorologist Lauryn Ricketts.
The good news is that there's a cure for cyber weather flu.
"Know what sources you're looking at. Is it a broadcast meteorologist? Is it a government-based entity? Not everything that's pushed out on the internet is accurate," says Ricketts.
Andrew Woodcock has seen weather patterns of all shapes and sizes over his decades-long career as an operational forecaster with the National Weather Service.
"Sociologically, we seem to have moved into an era where we need to name everything," he says.
Woodcock remains pragmatic despite recent trends.
"The atmosphere is essentially a bunch of air masses of differing densities, and these are ever changing. But sometimes a high or low will become semi-permanent, and this will likely continue... for the next 10,000 years."

Sara Crewe seemed just like a real princess...
When Sara Crewe arrives at Miss Minchin's London boarding school, she seems just like a real little princess. She wears beautiful clothes, has gracious manners, and tells the most wonderful stories.

Sara is all alone, but keeps telling herself that she can still be a princess inside, if only she tries hard enough.

Mike Rotunda
Real Name
Lawrence Rotunda
Date of Birth
March 30, 1958
Place of Birth
A lot of positive things are happening for Bo Dallas as of late. In addition to finally being called back up to the main roster by WWE, he also recently got married. It's interesting to note that he did not take any time off of television for the ceremony. The belief is that several of his famous relatives, such as Bray Wyatt, Barry Windham and Mike Rotunda, were on hand for the event.
June 27, 2014
Since his son Bray Wyatt is rapidly rising up the ladder in WWE towards stardom, a lot of people have been asking about Mike Rotunda as of late. The man formerly known as Irwin R Schyster is still working for WWE, where he is a producer backstage at Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. Rotunda's job is to script out the matches and segments for the wrestlers.
April 18, 2014
In a sign of how much the company is vested into the character, Bray Wyatt is not allowed to do any media interviews. The Hernando Times in Florida did a feature article on Mike Rotunda, Blackjack Mulligan, Barry Windham and the family. It was revealed that WWE would not grant Bray Wyatt permission to be involved in the piece, but Bo Dallas was allowed to give quotes.
April 14, 2014
Back when he was with the NWA, Mike Rotunda had an amateur wrestler gimmick when he teamed with Rick Steiner. It was actually based on his real life athletic career in college. Rotunda really did wrestle at Syracuse University. He was never an All American, though.

Freddie Blassie led Nikolai Volkov and the Iron Sheik to the ring, as the evil foreign team challenged Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham, collectively known as the US Express and accompanied by Freddie Blassie. It would be the first ever title change to take place at Wrestlemania 1.

No more O-Kumbaya: Gunmen attack US embassy in Yemen
The US embassy in Yemen received a warning about this pending attack hours before gunmen drove by and fired shots:
Unknown gunmen opened fire at a checkpoint outside the U.S. embassy in Yemen on Monday, hours after the mission said it received a threat, but a Yemeni official said no one was hurt.
"Police are chasing the car that opened fire. No one seems to have been hurt. It was a checkpoint leading to the embassy, and not close to the building," the official told Reuters.
The embassy had earlier urged Americans to be cautious in the Arab country that has been the scene of al Qaeda attacks on Western interests.
The incident comes on the heels of al Qaeda's latest love letter from two Gitmo recidivists who are now top al Qaeda leaders in Yemen — and in the wake of business ties between AG nominee Eric Holder and his Yemen Gitmo detainee-representing law firm, Covington & Burling.

Hateful Sister 2 ContinuedShe woke me again the next day with an arm full of underwear, she had even made me wear those panties at night now and much to my own confusion when i was finally getting to sleep i was having wet dreams. I could see her looking at me as i crawled out of bed, just seeing her was making my head buzz with so many different emotions now, fear being probably the biggest one, but somewhere somehow my captured maleness was also twinging. with a careful peep up at her i could see her looking at my sticky panties and a smile on her lips. Her voice was harsh though and I was sent to the bathroom to clean myself up and to get back to her quickly.
As was becoming the norm, i was so terrified of my big sister that i rushed and obeyed her in fear of her further anger, the clothes were laid out on the bed, please forgive my listing them but I am sure you will see how they made me feel when i saw them.
The Panties were obviously her old ones, but they were pink white and extremeley sheer a filmy fine material that clung but didnt hide. there was a training bra this was white the sort young girls wear, there was a white suspender belt with little pink flowers on the dangling suspenders, I didnt really have any idea what it was but i know now of course, tan stockings, a very short petticoat or slip (I had no idea of their proper names) this was white and like the previous one slippy satin material, that awful horrible short dress that i had been made to wear all this last week and a pair of heeled shoes (i was size 4 then, i am not that much bigger now, size 7, they were my mums shoes).
I dressed with her directing me, cajouling me and cursing me, my fingers all a tremble, my heart in my throat and those mixed emotions buzzing in my head. (I hated what i was doing, i hated putting these more and more obviously feminine clothes on, i was scared to death of her and yet my silly willy was being stupid and twitching like crazey and that upset and embarassed me even more)
Again she was behind me pushing as we went downstairs, Mum was there in the hallway wearing her coat a case beside her, she looked at my sister and addressed herself to her, she asked her if she was sure and my sister mysteriously said of couse it was the only way, then she turned to me. We have to take Mum to the station, those words turned me to jelly, i tried to tell her that i would run and change but oh no she wouldnt have it and her hand was raised to slap as she pushed me through the door out to her car. Mum and her sat in the front and I sat in the back on the way, cringed down trying to hide from view from anyone and everyone. We live in a very rural area and the station is quite rural too, Diana pulled the car to a stop outside and accross the small car park from the station building, she got out of the car, going round to the boot where she helped Mum take her case out. she looked towards me, asking why i wasnt going to say gooddbye to Mum. Bye Mum i mumbeld through the window still trying to make myself invisible, but oh no that wasnt good enough and my sister made that a real point telling me to get my lazey body out there to kiss Mum goodbye properly. I remember looking round fearfully to see if anyone was looking, the old cleaner was sweeping infornt of the station and nosily looking at the car. She had the door open now and I wriggled out trying to hide behind it and make myself look small. I kissed Mum and mumbled goodbye again, but as i was kissing her cheek i felt myself being pushed to one side and that last little security lost as the door shut.
I was so self conscious now, i couldnt look towards the man, i was trying to look away, my hands trying to pull the hem of my dress down as much as possible, they were taking so long to say goodbyes and talk and all the time i could feel the eyes of that cleaner boring into me. Eventually Mum went off to get her ticket and my sister told me to get in the front, i had the door open quicker than that, but then i realised that if i just jumped into the seat that man would get a real eyeful of my panties.. my bottom too because thay did little to conceal. I stood there for a few seconds in torment wondering what to do then swivelling round i carefully sat back on the seat frantically pull the hem of my dress down as i swung my legs in and again she was grinning in some sort of triumph.
This afternoon we are going to uncle Williams for tea, so you had better keep yourself clean and pretty for him, my face couldnt have been redder my heart couldnt have been beating harder my head screaming noo oh god noo and my stupid willy was twitching again.
Shall i carry on with our visit? i would hate it if i was boring you all with my silly memories.
Riche 46-50, M 6 Responses 4 Jul 15, 2010
Oh you must!
oh yes please do carry on !!!!!
Please keep it coming. This is very interesting
more please
Yes, do go ahead - the visit to Uncle Williams sounds so much like something that happened to me I can't wait to compare.
Please continue Riche, I'm loving the story! I don't think there's any need to be shy about telling the sexual aspects since this part of the site is edited and people have to confirm they are adults.

Mario Kart 3DS + Mario Kart Wheel 3DS
Mario Kart 3DS + 3DS Mario Kart 7 Wheel
The newest installment of the fan-favorite Mario Kart franchise brings Mushroom Kingdom racing fun into glorious 3D. For the first time, drivers explore new competitive kart possibilities, such as soaring through the skies or plunging to the depths of the sea. New courses, strategic new abilities and customizable karts bring the racing excitement to new heights.
The Mario Kart franchise continues to evolve. New kart abilities add to the wild fun that the games are known for. On big jumps, a kart deploys a wing to let it glide over a track shortcut. When under water, a propeller pops out to help the kart cruise across the sea floor.
Players can show their own style by customizing their vehicles with accessories that give them a competitive advantage. For instance, giant tires help a kart drive off-road, while smaller tires work best on city courses.
People can choose to race as one of their favorite Mushroom Kingdom characters or even as their Mii character.
New courses take players on wild rides over a mountain road, on city streets and through a dusty desert. Nintendo fans will recognize new courses on Wuhu Island and in the jungles from Donkey Kong Country Returns.
The game supports both SpotPass and StreetPass features.
Players can compete in local wireless matches or online over a broadband Internet connection.
Mario Kart 3DS + Mario Kart Wheel
Fitting snugly around the Nintendo 3DS, the Mario Kart 7 Wheel offers a comfortable and intuitive way to control Mario Kart 7 via the Nintendo 3DS's gyro motion controls.

November 28, 2014
MUNICH, Germany (AP) -- Researchers say women typically get heart disease much later than men -- but that the difference narrows quite a bit if they smoke.
In fact, say the scientists, women who smoke have heart attacks nearly 14 years earlier than women who don't smoke. For men, the gap is not so dramatic, about six years.
Doctors in Norway based their study on data from nearly 1,800 patients admitted for a first heart attack at a hospital in Lillehammer.
Their study found that the men on average had their first heart attack at age 72 if they didn't smoke, and at 64 if they did.
Women in the study had their first heart attack at age 81 if they didn't smoke, and at age 66 if they did.
After adjusting for other heart risk factors like blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes, researchers found that the difference for women was about 14 years and for men, about six years.

Daily Dose Of Jazz…
Eddie Harris was born on October 20, 1934 in Chicago, Illinois to a Cuban father and New Orleans mother. He studied music at DuSable High School, then Roosevelt University becoming proficient on piano, vibraphone and tenor saxophone and playing professionally with Gene Ammons.
After graduating and a stint in the 7th Army Band playing alongside Leo Wright, Don Ellis and Cedar Walton, he worked in New York City prior to his Chicago return. He signed with Vee Jay Records and released his debut "Exodus To Jazz" and his jazz arrangement of the theme to Exodus was so heavily played on radio, it became the first jazz record ever to be certified gold.
Throughout his career he recorded for Columbia and Atlantic Records, ventured into electric piano and Varitone saxophone mixing jazz with funk on albums like "The Electrifying Eddie Harris" and crossing into rhythm and blues markets. By 1969 he would perform with Les McCann at Montreux with an unrehearsed band that produced the seminal work Swiss Movement that became one of the best selling jazz albums ever.
In the early to mid '70s Harris experimented with altering instruments like his reed trumpet with a sax mouthpiece, saxobone with a trombone mouthpiece and guitorgan, a guitar/organ combination. He also forayed into singing blues, played with jazz-rock, and comic R&B consisting of mostly stand-up comedy all of which ultimately declined his popularity.
He would work with Horace Silver in the '80s, record regularly well into the 1990s, tour and perform in Europe and return to hard bop. His move to Los Angeles in the mid-1970s allowed him the opportunity to provide much of the music for The Bill Cosby Show.
Eddie Harris, tenor saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist and composer of "Freedom Jazz Dance" popularized by Miles Davis in the Sixties and also the tune "Listen Here", passed away from bone cancer and kidney disease at the age of 62 on November 5, 1996.

Daily Dose Of Jazz…
Melvin Rhyne was born on October 12, 1936 in Indianapolis, Indiana and started playing the piano shortly thereafter. By the time he turned 19 he was playing piano with then-unknown tenor saxophonist Rahsaan Roland Kirk but quickly switched to the Hammond B3 organ. His skills as a pianist fluidly translated to the organ fluently and he soon became a sideman for B.B. King and T-Bone Walker.
