History Turns Into Itself in This Newbery Winner
Dead End in Norvelt by Jack Gantos
Jack Gantos has a whole summer planned full of baseball, history books, and war movies when suddenly, caught in the middle of his quarreling parents, he becomes "grounded for life," ruining everything. Even though he lives in the dying town of Norvelt (originally founded by Eleanor Roosevelt to help poor families) and there's not much to do, when his mom volunteers him to help an aging neighbor type up the town's obituaries, he's less than thrilled. Soon, though, Jack finds himself absorbed in the town's history and the "original" Norvelters, as his spunky neighbor calls them, and he'll do anything to get out of house arrest and over to help her in her task. Soon he's involved not only with the obituaries but in a feud with an old man who ride's a trike, play-acting the Grim Reaper, distributing Girl Scout cookies, digging a fake bomb shelter, and a near-constant nose bleed, not to mention a potential murder. Suddenly his summer is anything but dull!
Described as "melding the entirely true and the wildly fictional," Dead End in Norvelt is a most-times funny and sometimes heart-breaking story of a boy coming of age in an old town past its prime full of wacky yet believable characters. Both darker and lighter themes blend with Gantos' humor as Jack finds himself imbedded in nearly everything going on in town. The relationships between Jack's parents and himself are enough to fill a book, but author Gantos has woven an entire town's worth of personalities and interactions together seamlessly. (more…)
A Beautiful & Authentic Midwestern Picture Book
It's Milking Time by Phyllis Alsdurf, illustrated by Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher
In the interest of full disclosure, I feel I should tell you something: I fell in love with It's Milking Time before I opened it.
Based on author Phyllis Alsdurf's own childhood on a Midwestern dairy farm, this book has a lyrical story, a description of the daily chores a daughter shares with her father each evening as they milk and take care of their cows. Each two-page spread is a beautiful illustration that supports Alsdurf's simple, straightforward narrative, a step-by-step introduction to evening tasks on a small family dairy farm. The story goes beyond that, though, sharing not only chores but the loving relationship between a father and daughter as well as the relationship between humans and animals.
So you won't think I'm overly infatuated with this book (and maybe I am), I'll let you in on a secret: I showed this book to an authentic dairy farm girl, and she loved it too. My soon-to-be Mother in Law grew up on her father's Wisconsin dairy farm, and she gave It's Milking Time her official seal of approval and accuracy. (more…)
More April Author Events!!
Jenny discovered a hidden jem of a bookstore called Mockingbird Books in the Green Lake neighborhood of Seattle. I'm doing a special post for this because they have some really great events coming up this month, including one of my favorite local authors, Stephanie Barden. I reviewed her first book in the Cinderella Smith series…check that out here. Her second book The More the Merrier comes out this month! Clete Barrett Smith is another favorite author of ours and he'll be part of The Inside Story event.

Author Spotlight: Interview with Lissa Price
Please give a warm welcome to author Lissa Price whose book Starters, a sci-fi thriller for young-adults, hits bookstores and libraries this month! Starters is the first in a duology of books (the second is Enders, due out December 12th), and it has a rip-roaring pace full of twists and turns galore. We met with Lissa after a shared event she had with fellow debut author Marissa Meyer (Cinder), and it was very clear what a huge fan of YA literature she is!
If you're new to Starters, be sure to check out our review. Also check out John Scalzi's blog where Lissa writes about how she got the idea for the series. Here's a teaser:
My Big Idea was that in the future, desperate teens would rent out their bodies to rich seniors who could then enjoy being young again. It came to me in Costco, a few years ago. Trying to get a flu shot.
Thanks so much for meeting with us! I'd just like to say that I really enjoyed Starters, and the way you set the pace was fantastic. You talked about some of the inspiration for Starters coming from The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. Did you have other literary inspirations?
I'm glad you asked that – Catherine Fisher's Incarceron. I love that book! I am probably more passionate about that than the other two, partly because a lot of people haven't read it and don't know about it (even though it's being developed into a film by Hugh Jackman's company). I think she came up with such an amazing world. [Fisher] managed to get part of the old world in there but make everything new. I love different levels of reality–that's my thing (Memento, Inception, The Matrix)–so, I love Incarceron. (more…)
Author Events for April!
There are some exciting authors coming this month. The best part about this month is that if you're not able to see some of these authors on one day, you'll have another chance on another day! Jenny and I get to interview Barry Lyga about his new book. I'm very excited that Robin LaFevers is back (we got to meet her at a secret author dinner at the Dahlia Lounge) in Seattle. The other BIG event that we're looking forward to is Trenton Lee Stewart!! It's a good month! -Ruby

Where personal property is sold during the year in which an assessment for taxes is made, and there is no agreement between the parties as to the payment of taxes, there is no authority for prorating such personal property taxes between the vendor and purchaser, but a purchaser who has been required to pay said taxes may have a right of recovery therefore against the vendor.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
May 21, 1951
Honorable Edward G. CrossProsecuting AttorneyAdams CountyRitzville, Washington Cite as: AGO 51-53 No. 44
Dear Sir:
We have your letter of April 19, 1951, requesting our opinion on the following question:
Where personal property is sold during the year in which the assessment is made, and there is no agreement between the vendor and purchaser for payment of the property taxes levied upon said property later in that year and due the following year, are such taxes to be prorated between the vendor and purchaser?
Our conclusion may be summarized as follows:
There is no statutory provision or court decision providing for the prorating of personal property taxes between the vendor and purchaser of personal property sold during the year in which the same is assessed, but a purchaser who has been required to pay the taxes on the item purchased, in order to save it from sale for taxes, may have the right to recover the same against his vendor.
[[Orig. Op. Page 2]]
You have set forth a situation wherein the owner of an item of personal property sold the same on January 2, 1951. The assessment for 1952 personal property taxes was made and listed on the county assessor's rolls against the vendor, as the owner of the property at noon of January 1, 1951. Your questions are: (1) Who is liable for these 1952 taxes? (2) If the vendor is liable, does he have relief in the form of being able to prorate the taxes with the purchaser for the portion of the assessment year each owns the article in the manner in which real property taxes may be prorated?
Section 1, chapter 139, Laws of 1939 (Rem. Rev. Stat. 11112) provides that all personal property shall be listed and assessed "with reference to its value and ownership on the first day of January in the year in which it is assessed." By section 1, chapter 122, Laws of 1937 (Rem. Rev. Stat. 11112-1), noon of that day is the exact time for determining ownership. Thus, the owner of taxable personal property on January 1, 1951, will be assessed for property taxes to be levied subsequently that year and to be due in 1952, known as the 1952 taxes. Section 2, chapter 136, Laws of 1939 (Rem. Rev. Stat. 11112-2).
Section 11265, Rem. Supp. 1943, provides two sources of payment of personal property taxes. Palace Fish & Oyster Co. v. Bean, 32 Wn. (2d) 56, 200 P. (2d) 753, summarizes the statute as follows:
"Rem. Supp. 1943, § 11265 (P.P.C. § 979-493), provides that the tax assessed on each item of personal property shall be a lien upon such personal property from and after the date on which the same is listed with and valued by the county assessor. We have repeatedly held that the county may follow the property on which the tax is 'assessed' (using the statutory language) wherever it may be found within this state, and that no distraint is necessary to perfect the lien. Personal property taxes may also be made a lien on other personal property of the person liable for the taxes, but in such a case distraint is necessary to perfect the lien."
There is no statutory provision or court decision of which we are aware providing for the prorating of personal property taxes between a vendor and purchaser of property. We doubt if there is any basis for such a procedure. Rather, we believe, the attempt should be made to determine the primary [[Orig. Op. Page 3]] responsibility for the personal property tax: Is the item assessed or the person assessed primarily liable. Perhaps, then, there may exist a right of recovery between the parties for taxes one has been required to pay.
Should the assessor first go against the item of property assessed or against the person assessed, by charging his other property? There is no statutory direction. InWilberg v. Yakima County, 132 Wash. 219, 231 Pac. 931, the Supreme Court attempted to set forth a rough order of procedure. The court there said that personal property taxes were a "personal obligation" of the person who owned the item at the time of assessment (now the January 1 owner, by statute), that the tax should be collected from the item assessed if it remained in the hands of the person assessed, that the tax should be collected from other real and personal property of the person assessed "if that specific property does not exist in such hands," and that if the tax be not collected from the person assessed, then "it may be collected from a subsequent owner in whose hands the property may be at the time of the attempted collection." Thus the court indicated primary responsibility is on the person assessed. However, we have always held that this did not force the treasurer to follow one course in preference to or in priority over another.
While statutes for the collection of personal property taxes have been amended since theWilberg decision, the changes have only been to incorporate most of that decision's contents into the amendatory enactments. Noticeably absent are the provisions directing the order of procedure in making collection.
We mention the order of procedure as an indication of the relative responsibility between the person assessed and the new owner. It is certainly arguable that in the Wilberg case the Supreme Court has indicate that a new owner of the item assessed, who has been required to pay the tax, would have a recovery against the person assessed because it directed the assessor to proceed first against the person assessed. We do not attempt to decide that question because you have not presented it directly, if, indeed, it is capable of being decided at the present time without a court action. We also should mention the possibility that a warranty of title by the vendor to his purchaser may be pertinent in the determination of a right to exoneration.
Very truly yours,
SMITH TROYAttorney General
C. JOHN NEWLANDSAssistant Attorney General

[851] Tau Protein Expression in Recurrent and Non-Recurrent Prostatic Adenocarcinoma
MP Gailey, G Lee, BR De Young. University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, Carver College of Medicine, Iowa City, IA
Background: Tau is a microtubule-associated protein whose principle function is in stabilizing and promoting microtubule (MT) assembly. Previous studies have investigated the relationship between tau protein expression and drug resistance in certain forms of carcinoma. These studies suggest that tau protein competes with antimotitic drugs for binding sites on MTs and thus renders resistance. However, another study has shown that in prostatic adenocarcinoma tau does not bind MTs, suggesting another mechanism of resistance. No studies to date that have examined the relationship of tau protein expression and outcome in prostatic adenocarcinoma.
Design: We matched 26 patients with recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma and 25 patients, who were free of recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma after 10 years of follow-up, according to Gleason score and margin status at prostatectomy. Utilizing standard technique, immunohistochemical staining of formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue from each patient's prostatectomy specimen was performed with an antibody specific for tau-13 (B11E8, 1:12,500 dilution). Tau protein expression was recorded as the percentage of tumor cells that stained positive.
Results: In patients with recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma, a slightly higher percentage of tumor cells (52%) showed tau expression when compared to those without recurrence (46%). However, no statistical difference between cases of recurrent versus non-recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma was identified (p=0.61). Moreover, expression of tau was variable, independent of Gleason score at prostatectomy (R2=0.02 and 0.003 for non-current and recurrent cases, respectively). Tau expression also varied within the same gland amongst benign acini, acini involved with high grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and adenocarcinoma.
Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that while cases of recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma show slightly higher expression of tau protein expression, no statistical difference in expression was identified. Furthermore, Gleason score does not correlate with tau expression and there is variable staining for tau between both benign and malignant acini within the same gland. These results support the hypothesis that tau is a multi-functional protein that does not influence outcome prostatic adenocarcinoma.

Denial - page 4
Same one I've had trouble with. Loved one in end-stage cx. Mets everywhere. Intubated a few weeks ago. Finally a DNR. Not eating, not voiding. POA had us stop the MSO4 because that's why... Read More
2Aug 11, '10 by Blackcat99Family are not the only ones in denial. I once had a terminally ill patient who was receiving pain medications. It took awhile but she finally got the right dosages and was no longer in pain. Imagine my surprise when I returned from my 2 days off and found her in pain again. I couldn't believe it. I checked her chart and found out that a nurse had called the doctor to decrease her pain medications. The nurse charted that the pain med was preventing the patient from participating in " the LTC's social activities." The family came in and was furious. I called and got the pain meds reordered immediately.tewdles and SuesquatchRN like this.
0Aug 11, '10 by SuesquatchRNQuote from tencatNo one is going to remove the POA as POA. Not happening.Can you get adult protective services involved?
5Aug 11, '10 by CapeCodMermaid, RNTwo incidents stand out in my mind:
Elderly man admitted to my unit. He was hours away from death...bleeding from every orifice. Doc ordered labs and IVs. His wife of 60+ years begged me to just let him be. I called the doc, told her the wife's wishes and get screamed at for 15 minutes...who did I think I was...SHE is the doctor, I the mere nurse. I let her rant on and on and told her we were going to honor his wife's wishes and if she wanted to come in and start the IV that was up to her. The poor man died less than 4 hours later, relatively peacefully with his wife at his side. She wrote me a 5 page thank you letter 2 days later. When I can't remember why I do this, I read that letter.
Other resident, same facility. 95 year old woman totally A+0. Diagnosed with cancer. Doctor recommended chemo therapy. She politely declined. Family was fine with that, doc was fine with that. A priest came in, found out she said she wasn't going to have chemo therapy and started screaming at her that it was tantamount to suicide and she was going to burn in hell. I called his superior I gave my opinion of how the priest had acted. The priest get sent to South America to preach to the natives and the woman was able to get her affairs in order and spend some time with her family. She died peacefully.
WE have to continue to be advocates for our residents. We are forming an Ethics Committee at my facility.

I wanted to write and express my gratitude to the LPGA, particularly the RR Donnelley Founders Cup. I took my two daughters to the practice round to watch the ladies. The girls purchased pins flags so they could get a few signatures throughout the morning. Every player they approached was kind and gracious. They all signed when asked and most engaged the girls in conversation. Of particular note, my girls are huge Natalie Gulbis fans. Not only did she sign their flags, she posed for a picture with them. They walked away grinning from ear to ear and are still talking about it. In an era where professional athletes are aloof or involved in scandals, the women of the LPGA are role models my children can look up to.
Thank you for providing such an amazing experience!
Topics: For the Love of the Fans, LPGA Founders Cup, Gulbis, Natalie

The free flow of skilled human capital was identified as a top priority at an Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) senior officials innovation meeting I led in Medan, Indonesia, this past weekend. The approval therefore by the U.S. Senate last Thursday of its version of immigration reform legislation was met with keen interest. Why is this legislation so important for the United States?
The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship is pleased to share a free electronic copy of Vivek Wadhwa's ebook, The Immigrant Exodus: Why America Is Losing the Global Race to Capture Entrepreneurial Talent. Wadhwa is an entrepreneur and academic who was been on the front lines of the immigration debate for the past few years and the book is a 2012 Economist Book of the Year.
duled for the week ahead as members of Congress left Washington this past weekend for the annual Fourth of July recess. Each recess is typically met with at least a couple of media stories about how it is ill-timed or even undeserved vacation. But don't fall into the trap of thinking it's a vacation. Last week, Roll Call, the pre-eminent publication for Capitol Hill and everyone who follows it closely, highlighted some findings from a Congressional Management Foundation survey about members' work habits and how they spend time on recess.
Female entrepreneurs in the United States benefit from more than just their own personal strengths and aspirations—they also benefit from an environment that is more open to women-led startups than any other country in the world. A new index released last month in Turkey at the Dell Women's Entrepreneur Network conference compared 17 countries across 30 indicators that foster high-potential entrepreneurship. For those hoping for a silver bullet issue to focus policy efforts, there isn't one.
Each day, Innovation Daily checks the pulse of global innovation--courtesy of Innovation America. Here, we take a look at a handful of relevant stories it compiled last week.
As economic recovery indicators fell flat last week, the leaders of G20 nations held meetings in Russia. Entrepreneurs were present and armed with a two reports from a couple of "Big 4" heavyweights to help them deliver their message -- "Help us help you stimulate job creation." We take a look this week at some of the highlights of what the authors had to say.
It is going to be a busy week in Washington, especially on the House side. The House Judiciary Committee has two days devoted to markup of a couple pieces of legislation – H.R. 1772 (the Legal Workforce Act) and H.R. 2131 (the Supplying Knowledge-based Immigrants and Lifting Levels of STEM Visas Act) – that focus on tighter employment verification and expanding H1-B visas. Of particular interest to those in the startup space might be the House Small Business Committee hearing on how mobile medical app entrepreneurs are changing the future of health care. Meanwhile, the Joint Economic Committee examines "smarter regulations." Other topics include: impact of Obamacare on U.S. businesses, energy jobs, wireless technology and the history of minimum wage.
The Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship was recently recognized as the top university business incubator in the world—beating out 150 incubators from 22 countries. The Houston-based incubator from Rice University led the charge as 15 U.S. universities dominated the top 25.
Spending a few days in Moscow last week where I spoke at the G20 Young Entrepreneur Alliance Summit, I found a dynamic and outward facing city with startup communities as vibrant as any in Europe. I check on things in Russia on the eve of this Thursday's St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and on the heels of an announcement yesterday that Russia will convene the next Global Entrepreneurship Congress (March 17-20, 2014) only a few yards from the entrance to the Kremlin in the historic Moscow Manege.

This is the first musical in five years that Martin Costello has presented at the Broadway.
Never mind Oh What a Beautiful Morning. The evening is equally delightful with the wind coming over the plains matched by the sound of audience clapping and non-stop cheering.
Thom Southerland, a rising talent among directors for his acclaimed productions of Annie Get Your Gun and The Pajama Game, auditioned 1,000 actors for the 16-roles. Three of them come from a seven-piece band to join the action.
The good news for supporters of the south east London theatre is that Southerland has already agreed to present Mack and Mabel and Kiss Me Kate there later on. Judging by the current show, that suggests more sell-outs.
Opening with Beautiful Morning and closing on the rousing Oklahoma! anthem, this is a musical that can do no wrong. Yet there is an anecdote about the New York opening that the tour reviews of "No girls, no gags, no chance" changed to "No tickets".
It is a team show and all involved can take credit, but there are some stand-out roles and performances.
Karl Clarkson has the big build and bigger voice (fond memories of Howard Keel) for the male lead of Curly, while Stephanie Nielson as Laurey, his reluctant girlfriend, sings equally well.
She could improve her impact by raising her voice at times because we want to hear the points she is making.
Rope-spinning Chris Love catches the eye with his dancing and confident personality and Jenny Bade makes a big contribution as his girlfriend - the girl who can't say no.
Nick Whitley is always prominent as a Jewish pedlar who knows that a good profit is better than a good girl.
Pearl Marsland is totally at home as lovable Aunt Eller, the wise matron who has seen it all, and Georgi Wooderson does wonders with a wicked laugh.
A final mention for the villain of the piece. That's Jacob Chapman as jealous Jud, Curly's rival for Laurey, who sings up an ovation at one point.
You could argue that the ground-breaking musical is an obvious winner. And you'd be right.

For motor enthusiasts, few sounds rival the sheer exuberance of an Italian super car spooling up its engine as it careens down the straightaway. At G1Tour, guests can achieve this thrill by slipping into the cockpit of their choice of three iconic super cars. Two Ferraris?a 360 Modena and an F430?twist their tires with 400 and 490 horsepower respectively, with the potential to reach the exact top speed of a cheetah who is driving a Ferrari. If that's not enough muscle, drivers can watch the blood drain from their knuckles as they attempt to contain the furious 552-horsepower Lamborghini Gallardo, who's high-rev plant propels passengers from 0 to 100 km/h in less than four seconds.
Cars can swirl around the 1.4-kilometre Sanair's wide tracks and soft turns or race headlong down the ultra-long straightaways of the 2-kilometre Sainte-Croix. Drivers who take on Mont-Tremblant negotiate hairpin turns and corkscrews as they work the pedals around the course's 4.2-kilometre track.
Carved through the tree-lined wetlands near the Mont-Tremblant Ski Resort, Golf Manitou's par-58 course showcases the artistry of architect Darrell Huxham. By design, each hole is a grassy homage to a different legendary golf course—the sand encircling the tenth green, for instance, recalls the Desert Highlands Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona, and the towering pine trees around the third hole mimic North Carolina's legendary Pinehurst. Unlike the thick shag carpet covering other courses' greens, slick bent grass makes for fast putts at almost every hole—including the fourth green's two-tiered tribute to Ballybunion Golf Club in Ireland. Before rounds, golfers can warm up at the driving range, which sports both grass and synthetic hitting bays, or practice putting and chipping on a massive 18-hole, 30,000-square-foot practice green.
The Beauchesne family, founders of Beau's All Natural Brewing Co., know that music and beer go well together. However, that doesn't simply mean that they enjoy sipping beer while listening to music. They've actually based their hands-on brewing process around the strong work ethic of DIY musicians. Several employees even play in the brewery's resident band, Audio.
The brewery's beer is as unique as its music-centered personality. "The beer, made with certified organic malt and local spring water, is just as refreshing as its quirky branding,? said Ottawa Magazine in its 101 Tastes To Try Before You Die list. Lug?Tread lagered ale, belgian dubbel, and vanilla porter are among its award-winning brews. Ever involved with the community, Beau's All Natural Brewing Co. frequently organizes dinners, music nights, and other events at local spots.
Driven by a desire to share their passion for luxury and classic cars, the crew at Dream Car Rentals founded an independent rental agency that places customers behind the wheel of Ferraris, Porsches, Audis, and Dodges. They deliver their fleet of five cars directly to clients for weekend rentals, special events, day-long joyrides, or unplanned visits from 1980s action-film stars. They also coordinate race days, when customers can pilot the four-wheeled steeds on the 3.4-kilometre Circuit iCar course or the 5-kilometre topographic track at Calabogie Motorsports Park, which features 20 sharp turns and an anti-minotaur security system.

Lamb Bolognese Sauce
Ground American Lamb: 2 pounds
Ground pork: 1 pound
Yellow onion: 1 medium
Peeled carrot: 1 medium
Celery: 1 stalk
Whole garlic cloves: 10
Olive oil: as needed
Red chili flakes: 1 scant teaspoon
Dried oregano: 1 teaspoon
Tomato paste: 1 tablespoon
Red wine: 8 ounces
San Marzano tomatoes, crushed: 14-ounce can
Kosher salt: 1 tablespoon
Bay leaf: 1
Unsalted butter: 4 tablespoons
Fresh basil leaves: 12
Parmesan, grated: 3/4 cup
In a food processor, add chopped onion, carrot, celery and garlic; pulse, scraping down the sides and making sure it is a bit smaller than the ground meat.
In a large cast iron pan, heat a light film of oil to almost smoking. Carefully add the meat. Let it brown without stirring, 4 or 5 minutes. Stir, scraping up any bits left in the bottom. There should be some juice left. Add chili flakes and oregano. Add tomato paste; allow to sauté for 2 minutes. Add in pulsed onion, carrot and celery mixture; let sweat for 5 to 6 minutes. Add in wine; reduce by two-thirds. Add tomatoes.
The mixture at this point should be like a very thick soup. Stir; add salt and bay leaf. Gently simmer with lid on, over low heat, for 2 hours. Remove lid; allow to cook another 30 minutes, or to desired consistency (fairly thick). Add salt and pepper to taste.
Set aside for 10 minutes. Stir in butter to fully incorporate basil leaves and 1/2 cup of parmesan. Remaining 1/4 cup parmesan is reserved for garnish.

[485] Connective Tissue Nevus: A Rare Lesion Analyzed in a Series of 25 Cases
Sebastien de Feraudy, Christopher DM Fletcher. Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA
Background: Connective tissue nevus (CTN) is an unusual benign cutaneous lesion that remains poorly defined in the literature. The purpose of this study was to characterize the clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features of CTN.
Design: 25 cases of CTN were retrieved from consult files. Clinical, pathologic and immunohistochemical features were evaluated. Clinical follow-up was obtained from medical records and referring physicians. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed.
Results: Sixteen patients were female (64%) and 9 were male (36%), with age ranging from 1.5 months to 58 years (median 10 years). Most patients presented with a slowly growing, painless plaque-like or nodular skin lesion (median size 0.6. cm, grossly). Eleven cases (44 %) arose on the trunk, 9 (36%) on the head and neck, and 5 (20 %) on limbs. All tumors showed poor circumscription and were situated primarily in the reticular and deep dermis, extending into superficial subcutis in 13 cases (52%). The lesion was associated with papillomatous epidermis in 17 cases (70%) and presence of adipose tissue in the reticular dermis in 14 cases (60.9%). All tumors were composed of a disorderly proliferation of bland intradermal fibroblastic cells with palely eosinophilic cytoplasm and tapering nuclei, with no significant cytologic atypia or pleomorphism, arranged in short-intersecting fascicles and entrapping appendages. No mitoses were identified. Immunostains showed positivity for CD34 in 20 of 23 cases (87%) and weak focal positivity for smooth muscle actin (SMA) in 9 of 19 cases (47%). No case stained for desmin (0 of 11 cases). Clinical follow-up was obtained for 13 patients. No tumor recurred locally, even when surgical excision was incomplete. No lesion metastasized.
Conclusions: CTN occurs most commonly as a plaque on the trunk and head/neck of children, involves deep dermis and superficial subcutis, and stains mainly for CD34. CTN most likely represents a localized development anomaly; it is entirely benign and should not be confused with dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans or other neoplasms.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Moss!
Facts about Moss
- Breed: Quarterhorse Mix
- Color: Chestnut/Sorrel
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large
- Sex: Male
Moss's Info...
I am already neutered, rideable, up to date with shots, and good with kids.
Moss is a beautiful and well built 2001 Chestnut QH Gelding that stands around 15.2 hands. He is a very sweet and gentle boy who loves attention. Moss was relinquished after several years of no riding, but from limited evaluations under saddle, we believe he has had reining and/or cow horse training in his past. He is turning out to be a solid western riding horse, and we are very excited to see how he progresses. However, he foundered in the past, and we have not had the chance to evaluate the amount of work he can withstand. All four hooves were xrayed, and showed very slight rotation of his front coffin bones, but vet feels with strategic trimming and hoof care, angles can be corrected. He is a little tender-footed on hard ground, but we have used Cavallo Boots on him and he does very well. We are uncertain whether he can perform at an intense level. He is on the lazy side, but responds well to the riders' cues. He has not been evaluated on trail yet. He has great ground manners and is well behaved for the vet, farrier, dentist and ties, ground ties, bathes, trailers, etc. Any level rider would be well suited on him. Moss requires a special diet of Grass Hay only and limited supplements, and he need to be housed in an area with no pasture grass.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Moss, a El Dorado Hills Quarterhorse was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Quarterhorse for sale in El Dorado Hills, or seeking a Quarterhorse from a breeder in El Dorado Hills.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in El Dorado Hills already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a El Dorado Hills breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Quarterhorse breeders who help with Quarterhorse rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in El Dorado Hills paves the way for another one to be saved.

The Axial Basin (AB) Coordinated Resource Management Plan (CRMP) was developed in an effort to resolve a conflict between wildlife (primarily deer, elk, and antelope) and livestock (spring/fall cattle and winter sheep) on the Lower Boxelder and Lower Maudlin allotments. Existing forage resources were not able to meet the needs of wildlife and livestock. The CRMP was developed by a Technical Review Team (TRT) consisting of the ranchers, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Colorado State University (CSU) County Extension Directory, CSU State Extension Range Specialist, Colorado Division of Wildlife (CDOW), Craig District Board of Grazing Advisors, Axial Basin Ranch Co. (ABR) owned by Colowyo Coal Company, and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The CRMP agreement was signed May 1, 1993.
Since the CRMP was completed, a significant number of management actions have been implemented in an effort to meet the objectives of improving the overall vegetation condition of the Lower Boxelder and Lower Maudlin allotments and to meet the livestock and wildlife forage demands by:
A six-year Rotation Deferred Grazing System was initiated in 1992. The first two years the pastures at the north end of each allotment were deferred alternately from winter sheep and spring/early summer cattle use. These areas are considered severe winter deer range. From 1994 through 1997, each of the four pastures is deferred once during the growing season and once from winter sheep use. In order to set up a four pasture Rotation Deferred Grazing System on the two allotments, five miles of new fence was constructed. The three-strand fence was built so as to minimize restriction of wildlife movement. Additionally, 30 reservoirs have been constructed to improve distribution of livestock and wildlife and take pressure off the riparian areas. ABR has reseeded 750 acres of cropland to grass for wildlife.
Decadent stands of sagebrush are causing depression of herbaceous plant production, are not providing needed cover or forage for wildlife, and are diminishing watershed stability. Approximately 950 acres have been treated by brush beating to rejuvenate old, decadent sagebrush stands, improve the herbaceous understory and overall plant diversity for habitat and forage for wildlife and livestock.
Twice a year, following winter wildlife/sheep use and spring use by cattle, vegetation is monitored for utilization.
The CDOW held special distribution hunts for several years and issued additional licenses in the regular seasons in an attempt to reduce vegetation utilization by deer on the allotments. In addition, CDOW and Kourlis Ranch have signed a "Contingency Plan" that, in the event of a severe winter, Kourlis will remove his sheep from areas classified severe winter range for deer. The CDOW flies annually to estimate deer population.
As implementation of the AB CRMP began, it was obvious that the seriousness of the weed problem, primarily whitetop, had been underestimated. A special meeting of the AB TRT was called with weed specialists from CSU and Moffat County Pest Management to develop an integrated weed management plan encompassing the whole watershed. From 1994 through 1997, a total of 3100 acres have been treated at least one time to control whitetop.
The AB CRMP was developed by consensus (unanimous agreement) of all parties. Semi-annual field tours are held by the TRT to assess conditions and progress on the CRM area.
The AB CRMP is subject to the NEPA process. An Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared and approved prior to implementation.

I have two fig trees in my back yard. Both started to grow new leaves but one of them all of the sudden stopped. I water them the same amount. The tree that has all its leaves is already bearing fruit but the other is not. I am afraid that the upcoming hot months will burn the bark if the leaves don't grow out to protect it. I have pictures of it to show what I am talking about. Any ideas why it stopped growing new leaves. |

If they are both getting the same mount of full sun hours and soil conditions are the same they may have different fertilization needs. Have you given these trees any fertilizer or compost? |

96% of the Salvation Army Money goes to help the poor. This can not be proven, because as a Church they are not held to the same financial accountability! The only way this could be true is if supporting their pastoral staff and conversion programs are part of it. I know a number of Salvation Army officers (ask Pastors) who live quite well. I have seen some money reports of some of their corps (aka churches) and very little goes to helping the poor. Then of course, they do some good stuff, like help the Hurricane Igor victims but this was only doable because the Radio stations raised millions for them and where did this money go and, even more interesting, where did the interest on these millions go? Doing good in every part of the world, I think not! There is no larger provider of food, aid, health, and education worldwide than the Catholic Church then you have other global Churches. Other Churches like the Anglians are also very global. The Salvation Army is mostly based in the well off English speaking countries like USA, Canada, England, and Australia. They may have a pin in the map in other places, but is just that, a pin in the map. Then they do a lot of false advertising or misrepresenting themselves. How many people know that they are a Church? Not many. People are unaware who they are handing their money over to because the Salvation Army often forgets to tell their true nature.

I am not sure what you mean by the word orge Doc?It means I believe 1. A giant or monster in legends and fairy tales that eats humans. 2. A person who is felt to be particularly cruel, brutish, or hideous.As far as heaping praise on a slum landlord is concerned you ought to be ashamed of yourself.As a taxpayer I am not pleased to see you support slum landlords and low life who feed on the pocket book of the less fortunate ,in this case elderly people who pay $1100 bucks each month to sleep on the floor and live in filth.This is all happening right under the nose and eyes of the whole City council and every one on that sinking ship ought to be deeply ashamed of that.You got more than enough inspector generals working there and wasting our tax dollars to at least let them root out this type of human disgrace.If you think eveything is just dandy in the city or that the slum landlord is your new hero then I say move on and let someone else do the job of mayor.You appear to be rather cocky and satisfied about this matter but let me tell you straight up that the people of St.John"s are not.I hope you speek for yourself and no other councillor?????What "FOOLS" elected politicans sometimes show themselves to be.

These houses should have been torn down years ago. They are an eye sore . And if memory serves me right , there was someone mudered in one of the green houses years ago? O'Keefe says they are helping the tenants find new places to live , but then it says the landloard is helping find them places? I guess no real difference than people getting evicted so that the landlord can out up the rent .

Don't expand the convention centre? Boy are you guys living in the past. Quite frankly everyone knew the convention centre was going to be expanded for a couple years now. The houses will not be torn down for another year. Why can't the people living in them find other accommodations? Are they renting for $500/month? Is it the city's fault that the landlord was charging subsidized rates for rent? I think that the last 2 years would be plenty of time for 3 houses worth of residents to find alternate accommodations. I'm not being heartless, I just think that you cannot not look to solve your problems. The city is growing, prices are going up and each individual is responsible to make sure they can afford to live in it. The whole cost of rent situation has been about 6 years in the making.

You're talking about a welfare state,not a city!It costs money to run a city and you can't run a city properly built on the dole.Take a lesson from Detroit where the population is down to 800,000 when it used to be almost four million because of the generous welfare benefits bestowed upon its lazy citizens.The same lazy citizens that now control it.And they still have their maulers out for more money to squander.A city in financial ruin with thousands of abandoned shacks as far as the eye can see.I'm all for affordable housing but not on the backs of the taxpayer.

Salvation Army is involved? WHY? This is nothing more than a Church group. A chruch group that does no more or no less than any other Church group. The only difference with this one is that they do not follow the Gospel message In Matthew 6 "But take care not to perform righteous deeds in order that people may see them; otherwise, you will have no recompense from your heavenly Father. When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets to win the praise of others. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing, so that your almsgiving may be secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may see them. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward." If there should be a seperation of Church and State the Salvatoin Army Church should not be favoured by the CIty or any government.

The Salvation Army provides 96 pct of their donations to the poor and needy.I know because I do volunteer work with them.No other religious group or non-profit organizations come remotely close to what this group does every day,365 days a year in all corners of the world.And they don't ask you to convert like most religious organizations are want to make you do.I suspect that the Salvation Army is involved in this decision by the city because of their outstanding work with the truly poor,the downtrodden and the homeless.And they are truly accepting of other peoples religious beliefes, no matter what the denomination.They could care less if you're Catholic,Baptist,Mormon etc,etc,etc.There's a whole lot us Catholics and other religious faiths that could learn much from the Salvation Army's great works amongst the destitute ,the mentally ill and just plain old no hope folks in the world. You can spout bible versus till the proverbial cows come home ,but to me it's all just hot air when it comes to really helping others,like most religious organizations are want not to do, unless one agrees with their doctrine.And one last thing,you're woefully wrong about the Salvation Army just being another religious group.They are far and above the rest of them.You don't have to take this Irish Catholics word for that,just get on line and do some research before you go embarassing yourself in the future with inane and unfounded comments!

Ubisoft has outlined some of the planned differences between Assassin's Creed 4 on current and next-gen platforms.
"In addition to improved graphics and physics," creative director Jean Guesdon has said that next-gen versions will offer enhanced connected features, although he was vague about their exact nature.
"Next-gen versions will bring to the players new connected features allowing them to feel that even if they remain 'single player' it will be better to be a 'single connected player'. I mean, that next-gen consoles will allow players to have a solo experience that benefit the presence of a huge community."
While game studios familiar with new consoles from Sony and Microsoft aren't yet ready to fully divulge their next-gen development plans, Guesdon's comments echo some made recently by Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli, who said: "I think the notion of a single-player experience has to go away. However, I'm not saying that there will be no single-player experiences ... it could be it's called connected single-player or online single-player instead.
"Online and social can reignite single-player in a new type of context and provide benefits that will make you want to be a part of a connected story-mode rather than a disconnected story-mode," he added. "Sure, if the technology forces you to play a traditional single-player game online, that doesn't make sense but if it's offering actual benefits to be online then you want to be part of it."

4th Mississippi Infantry Civil War Flag RestoredThanks to the efforts of a local group, another historic Civil War flag from the MDAH Museum Division collection has been conserved. More than $80,000 has been donated by the Mississippi Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans through the "Save the Battleflags" program. Ten historic flags have been conserved with the funding, and funds continue to be raised for work on additional flags. The most recent flag to be conserved is the battle flag of the 4th Mississippi Infantry. The flag was captured by 1st Lt. Adjt. Thomas P. Gere of the 5th Minnesota Volunteers at the Battle of Brentwood Hills (near Nashville) on December 16, 1864. The flag was returned to Mississippi by the War Department in 1905. The almost-150-year-old flag was cleaned and attached to a stretcher frame for preservation. Wool and linen fabrics were dyed to blend with the colors of the flag to use as underlay patches to support and infill the areas of loss in the flag. Holes were stabilized and the missing letters in "VICKSBURG" were reproduced. In total, the flag underwent 160 hours of work by professional textile restorers in New Orleans. "The work done by this group has truly been amazing," said Mississippi Department of Archives and History director H.T. Holmes. "This generous contribution, the latest in a series, shows a real dedication to history." To learn more about this project or to donate funds to MDAH towards flag conservation, please contact Cindy Gardner, director of collections, at 601-576-6901 or by email. |

An Israeli coder named Tal Ater was working on speech recognition software when he found a security bug in Google's Chrome browser. The bug allows those with malicious intent to exploit the way Chrome handles speech recognition, making the browser continue to listen in on you — using your computer's microphone — even after you leave that particular page or website.
Normally, when a site wants access to a user's microphone, a pop-up appears in Chrome asking for permission to use it. When granted, Chrome then displays a blinking red dot on that particular site's tab. According to Ater, hackers could use specific code to open "pop-under" windows with the speech recognition enabled — basically turning Chrome into an eavesdropping device until the entire browser (or that particular process if found) is closed.
Ater says that Google was told about the bug all back in September of last year and found a fix for it in October. So why are we still talking about it? Apparently Google hasn't rolled out the fix, even today. The company is reportedly waiting for the World Wide Web consortium (W3C) before making a decision. They also say that the speech recognition software is in W3C specifications, and believe that there is no immediate threat since users must first grant permission.
If you'd like to see Ater's blogpost detailing the exploit, along with an accompanying video to demonstrate it, you can check out his post here.

You don't have to disable your mic. Just make a habit of not enabling your mic on any site you don't completely trust.
