David Beckham is officially off the LA Galaxy's injury report.
Beckham was listed as questionable earlier in the week with a left ankle sprain, but the midfielder was removed on Friday's updated Injury Report. The 37-year-old English midfielder went 87 minutes in last week's 1-1 draw against the Colorado Rapids in his first match in a month.
Following training on Friday, Beckham told reporters that he is ready to participate in Saturday's match against Real Salt Lake...
"The ankle didn't feel perfect [after the Colorado match] but it felt a lot better than what it had done," said Beckham. "I've done a lot of strengthening work this week and while it's not 100 percent, it's close. It's 98."
The complete Injury Report is below:
OUT: DF A.J. DeLaGarza (L knee sprain); DF Leonardo (R knee inflammation); MF Kyle Nakazawa (back spasms); QUESTIONABLE: MF Christian Wilhelmsson (L calf strain)
CARSON, Calif. – The last time that the LA Galaxy took on Real Salt Lake on June 20 at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah, the two teams were on the opposite end of the Western Conference spectrum.
The LA Galaxy were a dismal 4-8-2, sitting near the bottom of the Western Conference while Real Salt Lake 10-3-2 perched atop the West ahead of the then-second place San Jose Earthquakes.
The match started poorly enough for LA as the game was delayed for 15 minutes because the Galaxy team bus was stuck in Salt Lake City gridlock, but it would get worse once the opening whistle was sounded. Within 25 minutes, goals from Kyle Beckerman and Alvaro Saborío saw RSL take a 2-0 lead on the Galaxy.
Although things had taken a turn for the worse, LA would pull one back in the 29th minute on a brilliant individual effort from Landon Donovan, who capitalized on a Salt Lake defensive gaff. Following his goal, Donovan shouted at his teammates seemingly signaling that the time for a comeback was now. They immediately responded. LA would tally two more goals in the second half from Mike Magee and Donovan as LA roared back to earn a valuable three points at the RioT.
Now heading into the MLS Regular Season's final week, the Real Salt Lake sit two points ahead of the Galaxy in the chase for second place in the West. As the Galaxy reflect on their season ahead of Saturday's match against RSL at The Home Depot Center, there is no doubt that June's clash was a turning point for the Galaxy.
BECKHAM: "I think it brought us together. Going there is always a difficult place to go so going there and being 2-0 down and winning the game 3-2 was a big thing for us."
DONOVAN: "I think that it gave us come belief to go down there and get a result after being down 2-0. It's a big feat and what really helps is that if we play them in the playoffs, we have the belief that we can go down there and do it again so that's good."
CARSON, Calif. – Since 2009, two teams have reigned supreme in the Western Conference—the LA Galaxy and Real Salt Lake.
Having appeared won two of the last three MLS Cups and two of the last three Supporters' Shield trophies, matches between the two clubs have emerged as one of the top competitive rivalries in MLS. For the LA Galaxy, matches against RSL are always contentious, physical clashes that have a flair for the dramatic. Just how dramatic have LA and Salt Lake matches been? In the seven matches the 2009 MLS Cup—a match RSL won in penalties—four have been decided by one goal as the Galaxy have amassed four wins and three defeats in all competitions.
investigate this rivalry, I asked Galaxy fans, players (David Beckham, Landon Donovan, Edson Buddle and Todd Dunivant) and head coach Bruce Arena about the view of RSL as LA's main competitive rival.
BECKHAM: "I consider them to be a good team. I think that we've got quite a few rivals because we won the championship last year and people want to come here [to The Home Depot Center] and beat us. I do consider most teams our rivals, but Salt Lake are a good team, I think they play the game well and they have done that for a number of years. They've had quite a lot of success over the last few years so I think that they're a very good team."
DONOVAN: "I don't know, Seattle are a tough team, San Jose through the years. Salt Lake and us for the last four or five years have been two of the best teams in the league so it makes for good games all the time and I'm sure that this one will be the same."
BUDDLE: "I would consider them a rival especially because of the Final. We look forward to playing these games. I thought about the [2009 MLS Cup Final] a lot in the [2010] offseason [before Buddle scored 17 goals en route to an appearance on the U.S. national team's squad for the 2010 World Cup ] I didn't want that [penalty miss that set up Robbie Russell's Cup winning penalty] to be the last memory of me in a Galaxy uniform. I've let that go now, but I'm still shooting for that championship so whomever is in my way has to get taken down."
DUNIVANT: "You can date it back to '09, we didn't have anything going into that even or even through that season, but obviously the Cup final kind of changed that. They made it through the Eastern side of the bracket and then beat us in penalties so that's the start of the rivalry right there. But it's really been two of the better teams over the last four years, when you have that, you have a lot of meaningful games, a lot of things that matter and battling each other for the Supporters' Shield for the last couple of years and they're two of the better teams so of course, it's a rivalry."
ARENA: "I think that every team in your conference is a rival. I think that any is much different. Obviously, the one that brings a lot of attention is the geographic [rivalry] because of Chivas here, but everything else in the conference is pretty much the same. They're all pretty competitive rivals."
@lagalaxyinsider For competitive reasons they are the only team I care about beating. Seattle next cause their fans bother me so much.
— Chris Tucker (@ZeroCool138) October 4, 2012
@lagalaxyinsider Definitely true - they have had some of the best games over the last 3 years - hard fought, wins at each other's home, etc
— Michael (@SaltyGunner) October 4, 2012
@lagalaxyinsider @realsaltlake @lagalaxy yes, based on the fact that you have a MLS Cup, Conference Final, and close rivalry since 05

Three members of the LA Galaxy will be away on International duties over the next two weeks as Christian Wilhelmsson (Sweden), Robbie Keane (Ireland) and Dan Keat (New Zealand) have been called up by their respective nations for World Cup qualifiers, the club announced on Friday.
All three players will leave on Sunday and return to Southern California around October 17, ahead of LA's penultimate league match of the year against San Jose Earthquakes at Buck Shaw Stadium on October 21.
Wilhelmsson rejoins the Swedish national team after missing the last International period to finalize his deal with the Galaxy. "Chippen" and Sweden continue World Cup qualifying in UEFA Group C with matches against Faroe Islands in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands on October 12 and against Germany at Olympic Stadium in Berlin on Oct. 16. Meanwhile, also in group C, Robbie Keane's Ireland will face off against Germany in Dublin, Ireland on Oct. 12 before taking on the Faroe Islands in Tórshavn. Across the globe, Keat and New Zealand face a pair of World Cup qualifiers against Tahiti, the first on Oct. 12 in Papeete, Tahiti and the second taking place on Oct. 12 in Christchurch, New Zealand.
The Galaxy may be joined by Galaxy captain Landon Donovan, who may be called up by the United States for their own World Cup qualifiers against Antigua and Barbuda on the Caribbean island on Oct. 12 and Guatemala at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kans. on Oct. 16. The USMNT will announce their roster on Monday at 12pm PDT.
Galaxy commentators Mark Rogondino and Cobi Jones preview Saturday's game against Real Salt Lake...
CARSON, Calif. -- There's a postseason atmosphere in the air around the LA Galaxy training ground these days.
As club looks to continue their ascent up the Western Conference standings ahead of the start of the MLS Cup Playoffs later this month, the Galaxy have begun to raise their level across the field. LA look to continue the drive to postseason this Saturday in a crucial match against Real Salt Lake, a team that the Galaxy would face in the Western Conference Semifinal if the playoffs began today. For the Galaxy to defeat RSL on Saturday, they'll need another big game from leading goal scorer forward Robbie Keane, who has scored an impressive 14 goals -- the fifth highest mark in MLS-- along with eight assists.
Keane, who scored a goal in the Western Conference Final against RSL last season admits that a postseason atmosphere has arrived at The Home Depot Center a bit earlier this year.
KEANE: "I think so yeah, if you look at the teams that we're playing they're the teams that we could get in the playoffs. It's going to be three tough games, we know that. They're good teams and we're going to get these out of the way and focus on the playoffs, but we're hoping to finish as high as we can."
(On Salt Lake...)
KEANE: "They're a good team and a tough team to play against. From now until hopefully the final, there's not going to be too many easy games. They're very, very good and a solid team. They've been scoring goals and scored quite a few goals against Chivas. We know that it's going to be difficult, but we're playing at home and we always fancy our chances when we're playing at home."
CARSON, Calif. – The LA Galaxy may be able to call upon Swedish winger Christian Wilhelmsson for this Saturday's clash against Real Salt Lake.
Last week, a strain in his left calf prevented him from appearing in last Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Colorado Rapids, but the Swede told reporters on Thursday that he believes that he expects to be up for selection.
"I should be ready to be available this week at least," said Wilhelmsson, who is still listed as questionable on the club's injury report. "I'm optimistic."
Wilhelmsson's comments come after his first day of full training since sustaining an injury last week according to Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena. The Galaxy boss said on Thursday that Wilhelmsson participated in just half a session on Wednesday and still needed to be evaluated ahead of Saturday's game.
Although Wilhelmsson hopes to participate, the Swede, who has already scored one goal in two appearances with the Galaxy, is not looking to rush back and risk another injury.
"Every time that you're injured or have some problems, you just want to get back as soon as possible, but you can not rush it or hurry because you could get injured again," said Wilhelmsson. "You need to take care of what the body tells you and how fast that you can go with them."
Steadily, the number of households that can view Time Warner Cable's newest sports networks is growing.
On Thursday, Time Warner reached a deal with Bright House Networks to carry both Time Warner Cable SportsNet and spanish language station Time Warner Cable Deportes.
"Our partners at Bright House Networks value Southern California sports as much as we do and we're excited to work with them to bring Lakers, Galaxy and Sparks games and programming to our viewers," said David Rone, President, Time Warner Cable Sports in a statement. "We're extremely happy to work with Bright House Networks to bring sports fans in Southern California Time Warner Cable SportsNet and Time Warner Cable Deportes."
Bright House is the sixth largest owner and operator of cable systems in the U.S. and is one of the predominant cable operators in the Bakersfield, California area.
CARSON, Calif. -- Ahead of Saturday's clash against Real Salt Lake, reporters caught up with Galaxy defender Todd Dunivant.
Dunivant touched on a number of topics including RSL's attack, playing without A.J. DeLaGarza and LA's vital month of October.
Dunivant's thoughts are below...
(On Espindola…)
"He's tough to keep track of because he's moving sometimes to the wing, sometimes up high and sometimes underneath and that's when he's at his best when he's dribbling and making plays and being a distributor as well as a finisher. It causes a lot of headaches for defenses that's for sure."
(On RSL being a team of unsung heroes…)
DUNIVANT: "They're a good team all around. Over the years, they've been very good defensively and part of that is just the way that they keep the ball and limiting the chances. Their midfield is the key to that. Will Johnson, Ned Grabavoy, Beckerman all those guys and Morales, it's a very good midfield and it's certainly key to their team."
(On the role of Javier Morales to RSL's midfield…)
DUNIVANT: "He can make the special play and he's a wildcard because at any point, he can change the game. In playoffs in crucial times, those are the types of plays and players that you need and he's been able to do that throughout the years. You've seen it in MLS, you've seen it in Champions League. He steps up when it counts."
(On heading into October…)
DUNIVANT: "We've only got three games left [in league play] and it's against three teams that we're battling with playoff position so you can't ask for anything more than that really. When it comes down to it, we have to win to get in, we control our destiny and that's what you want. It's certainly not easy, but you have it no other way . The way that we made up grown this season is by beating Western Conference teams and climbing up the table that way and now we have a chance again to play teams that are right there with us. For the second, third, and fourth spot."
(On the postseason atmosphere of the last four games…)
DUNIVANT: "Absolutely, these games are going to be playoff intensity and these games matter. These games really matter and when you get down to these last couple then you know exactly what you need to do and that's fun."
(On LA being happy with their place in the standings heading into the last month…)
DUNIVANT: "We've set ourselves up well, but we've got to finish it off now. Like you said, three months ago, a lot of people didn't think we could be in this position, but we always believed and we knew that we had a good team and we've stuck together and the club has stuck by us and we've rewarded that with some good results."
(On playing without DeLaGarza…)
DUNIVANT: "It's tough to lose A.J. at this stage, but you have to deal with those things and it's certainly not easy and guys are going to have to step up and the whole team is going to have to step up."
(On the role the comeback victory to RSL played in LA's comeback this summer…)
DUNIVANT: "That was right when we started putting results together….we needed wins and we needed them fast and we started to put those on and suddenly we were eight points out of the playoffs at that point and for 3-8-2, that's not that bad. Suddenly we win those games and we're two points out of the playoffs and it's a whole different ballgame with 20 games to go."
(On chemistry concerns among the back four without DeLaGarza…)
DUNIVANT: "We haven't had this where A.J. has been out. He's been real reliable for us when he's been in there and we've been working this weekend in practice in getting things right so certainly , it's not going to be easy without him, he's a huge part of our defense so we're going to have to not use it as an excuse and just plow forward."
(On Meyer being a different type of defender than DeLaGarza…)
DUNIVANT: "It's going to be on us, so only time is going to tell. We've got to have baptism by fire in these last three games and we have confidence in Tommy or whoever goes in there and if we continue to play well as a group and we continue to play as we have a team then we're going to continue to get shutouts, we're going to continue to get results. It hasn't just been the starting four that has gotten results, it's been the other group as well in Reserve games and Champions League games so as a team we've improved well defensively and we need to keep that going if we want to win the championship. "

In a repeat offense similar to last week, the woman then took her roommate's vehicle without permission. The vehicle was located a short time later and the 19 year old woman was taken into custody without incident. She was placed in jail for Disorderly Conduct and Operating a Motor Vehicle without Owner's Consent.

Thomas Dale High School will present a spectacular concert on Monday, Oct. 22, featuring a 200 voice chorale and full orchestra in an evening of thoughtful and moving music.
Thomas Dale High School is home to Chesterfield County's Specialty Center for the Visual and Performing Arts and is located at 3626 W. Hundred Rd. The Specialty Center Arts program attracts students from all districts of Chesterfield County who are highly interested and talented in art, theatre, music and dance.
Memorial is a professional caliber composition for mixed chorus, orchestra and baritone solo that was inspired by the events of September 11 and is dedicated to all victims of senseless violence. The ending of the piece is "a rather impassioned plea for peace and understanding," writes the composer, Rene' Clausen. Memorial was chosen because Thomas Dale High School has recently engaged with "Rachel's Challenge," a series of student empowering programs and strategies that equip students and adults to embrace a culture of kindness and compassion. The programs are based on the writings and life of 17-year-old Rachel Scott who was the first student killed at Columbine High School in 1999. Rachel wrote in her journal, "I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion, then it will start a chain reaction of the same. People will never know how far a little kindness can go."
"Memorial is a really beautiful and emotional piece. It shows how people were angry after 9-11, then they grieved, and then let go of their anger," said Arden Karamarkovich (violinist). Alisa Pratt (violist) adds that, "Rachel's Challenge and Memorial show that we need to come together and seek peace with everyone." Visual Arts students at Thomas Dale also created original poster designs to raise awareness of the school's "Rachel's Challenge" campaign. Those posters and other student art works will be shown in the Knight Gallery adjacent to the auditorium on concert night.
The Chesterfield Center for the Arts Foundation is also partnering with Thomas Dale High School on this evening. The Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in Chesterfield County and surrounding areas through all the cultural arts.
The concert begins at 7 p.m. in the Thomas Dale High School's Main Auditorium. Tickets are $5 and will be available at the door. The Specialty Center for the Arts will also host an open house for interested eighth-grade families on Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 7 pm. For more info please visit www.SpecialtyCenterArts.com.

Signs & Symptoms
The defining features of Body Dysmorphic Disorder are a distressing and time-consuming preoccupation with an imaginary defect in one's appearance, or excessive concern about a slight physical anomaly. This preoccupation causes significant distress or impairs school or work, personal or social functioning. Although virtually any body part can become the source of preoccupation, BDD most commonly involves the eyes, ears, nose, skin, chin, jaw or other facial features. Other areas of concern include hands, feet, breasts and genitals. People with Body Dysmorphic Disorder are ashamed of their "defect" and invent elaborate means to hide their deformity from the world. Camouflaging behaviors include excessive hair combing and hair removal, ritualized application of makeup and avoidance of situations that might expose the perceived defect.

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Caramel!
Facts about Caramel
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tortoiseshell
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Caramel's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
DSH: Black/Orange
Arrived: 10/01/10
My litter mates and I were found living in a yard in Powell. A very nice lady takes care of the strays and asked Cozy Cat to take us. Cozy Cat did and now we all need to find homes.
Other Pets at Cozy Cat Cottage Adoption Center
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Caramel, a Powell Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Powell, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Powell.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Powell 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 Powell 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 Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Powell paves the way for another one to be saved.

did you do crown moulding?
Also, do you like the walls and ceiling painted the same? Not sure this is the right forum but thought I would start here :-) Pics would be wonderful.
Follow-Up Postings:
I did it in my bathrooms because I don't like crown moulding in bathrooms (it's a thing). I like it very much and feel it makes our small bathrooms seem more spacious and the ceilings a little higher. It's a total figment of course, but the impression is there. I'm a white ceiling person everywhere else, where there is crown moulding. |
I don't know why you are asking this question, but to me, crown moulding is a way to upgrade any room, so it always is a good thing if you can afford to do it IMO. If you are painting it white and the walls and ceilings are colors that are not white, then the crown can really stand out. |
That is beautiful, Thank you! As far as the why, just trying to figure out what to do ... deep sigh ... :-) Thanks for the replies! |
My uncle is a well established interior decorator. His home is a Victorian, his decorating style traditional. He painted his bathroom ceiling and walls a nice red, and the crown moulding is BM linen white (a nice creamy white). Looks beautiful. I agree with painting the moulding a contrasting color so it stands out. Crown moulding also adds value and character to your home. |
- Posted by denali_2007 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 4, 10 at 21:00
I painted my ceiling and walls the same color and it does not have crown molding. We plan on putting in crown molding but just finished painting. I really love it just the way it is but I know that crown molding makes it look even better. I tried to take a picture but since I don't have anything in the room yet I couldn't get my camera to focus properly. Even if you don't put up crown molding go ahead and paint the ceiling. I painted the ceiling flat and have matte on the walls and there is a slight difference in looks. |
I'm wondering, is flat and matte the same thing? Did you mean flat and satin or eggshell? It's funny, I have a neighbor who is an interior decorator. She swears on flat paint in all her rooms. My uncle goes with eggshell or satin. My friend goes with semi gloss, he likes the shinier look. ALL of them have beautiful homes, so it just goes to show it's all about personal taste, but there are pros and cons to each of them no matter how you look at it. I've seen ceilings with those built in original medallions around light fixtures, and in that case I would paint the ceiling an eggshell or satin finish, to show off the texture and details. Otherwise, in my case I have no medallions on my ceiling, they look best flat, and in our old home I have imperfections to hide. I have rooms in my own house with white ceilings, color on walls, and others with the same color on walls and ceiling. Mostly, the smaller rooms I have the ceiling the same color as the walls. In my dining room, I have a picture moulding, and cove ceilings. In this case, I have unpainted moulding (stained), I painted the ceiling and cove one color, and the walls (below the picture moulding) another color, at the recommendation of our interior decorator. We also have crows feet spanish plaster, which shows off the texture better with a shinier paint (I used satin, my friend uses semi gloss), but both look nice, just depends on what look you like. Some people think semi gloss is too much. Definitely a lot of shine, in my opinion. The next time I paint my hallways, however, they will be semi gloss due to high traffic area and smudges. I know this is off the subject.... |
- Posted by just_julie (My Page) on Fri, Feb 5, 10 at 8:45
I painted my brother and SIL's bedroom all the same color. It wasn't the original plan but their ceiling was so uneven, 2 colors would have looked rediculous. The room faces north and she used a medium toned blue (to go with brown and white accents). It looks very nice and cozy. |
There is a significant difference between flat and matte. Flat paint is not washable and has no sheen. Matte is washable and has the lowest sheen of all washable paints (some claim it has no sheen but this is not true). Also, flat paint usually costs about half the price of matte because the ingredients used to make flat paint are cheaper. Cheap fillers like talc, chalk, clay are used in a flat paint to fluff up the paint film and that fluffiness is exactly what makes it a good choice for hiding and touching up. |
You guys are awesome! Thank you. I ended up painting the walls and the ceilings the same and I love them! Might do crown, have to see how much money is left at the end :-) The only ceiling that is different, is the ceiling in the 2 story foyer, it is an antique white, as the foyer walls are one color and the loft is another but they merge together beautifully on the walls, so there is one color on the ceiling that the two share. I will have a medallion in the foyer and I think it is going to look amazing!! Thank you again! |

Glad you went for it and love it! |
- Posted by phylliskirigin (My Page) on Sun, Feb 7, 10 at 19:25
We're painting hallways a light apricot, the ceiling an off white. Should the inside doors match the walls, the ceiling or be a semi-gloss off white? |

People who easily feel hungry despite just finished eating, probably because of health problems such as diabetes. But it may have been caused by the mistakes you make when eating.
Hunger may increase the desire to re-grab the food, making you eat too much, and cause obesity. Note 6 things that can cause excessive hunger despite just ate, (11/06/2012), the following:
1. Eating salty foods
Researchers have found that you may feel full after eating salty foods, but high salinity can affect the sensors associated with the satisfaction of hunger and desire to eat again.
2. Eating foods diet
Usually, a low-fat diet are containing of more sugars, carbohydrates, and sodium to create a delicious flavor. But a study published in the journal Nutrition suggests that the sweetener in diet foods or beverages can actually stimulate the appetite.
Before choosing a diet, make sure to read the nutrition label. Choose a diet containing certain nutrients such as calcium, omega-3 and low in saturated fat, and avoid foods that contain high levels of dietary sweeteners and sodium.
3. Drinking soda or alcoholic beverages before meals
Drinking carbonated or alcoholic beverages before meals can produce acid in the stomach, so that when the food started to go into the stomach, the digestive organs are ready to digest food. It can speed up the process of digestion and makes you quickly feel hungry.
4. Eat less protein
Proteins can affect feelings of fullness in the stomach and the brain. So someone needs to eat foods that contain protein that are not easily hungry. According to recent research, people who eat a diet of 15 percent protein level is lower than the total calorie of food consumed, will find it easy at all hungry.
Eat foods rich in protein at the breakfast table, like a boiled egg, whole grain cereals, and yogurt so you do not easily feel hungry throughout the day. This can prevent you from eating snacks excessive because too hungry before lunch time.
5. Eating foods that contain herbs and certain spices
The spices have health benefits for the body, of which increase appetite. But some certain herbs can make you feel hungry despite just ate, including mustard, turmeric, ginger and parsley.
Mustard can increase the flow of saliva and digestive juices that can stimulate appetite. Turmeric, ginger and parsley contain certain substances that can affect the brain to stimulate the appetite.
6. Eating foods that contain high fructose corn syrup

[150] Molecular Classification of Screen Detected Breast Cancers.
Gelareh Farshid, Adrienne Walker, Glenda Battersby. BreastScreen SA, Wayville, SA, Australia; SA Pathology, Adelaide, SA, Australia
Background: Detection by mammographic screening confers a survival advantage of approximately 20% compared to symptomatic breast cancers. The improved prognosis is only partly explained by stage migration. The distribution of the molecular subtypes of screen detected breast cancers has been studied little, with varying findings regarding HER2 amplification. We wished to assess a large series of cases with whole section immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization to ascertain the possible role of molecular profile in the improved prognosis associated with screening.
Design: For invasive breast cancers diagnosed during 2007-08 in our statewide screening program we analyzed patient and tumour related variables including ER, PR and HER2. Molecular subtypes were defined as luminal A (ER+ and/or PR+, HER2-), luminal B (ER+ and/or PR+, HER2+), HER2 (ER-, PR-, and HER2+) and basal-like (triple negative). Results were compared with the findings in previous studies in our population.
Results: During this time 698 invasive cancers were diagnosed (mean age 61.7 +/- 8.1 yrs), mean diameter 15.3mm (+/- 10.8). 114 cases (16.3%) were node positive. The carcinoma was stage I in 67.6%, IIA in 21.7%, IIB in 8.8%, III in 1.3% and IV in 0.4%. For the 682 cases with established biomarker status, 578 (84.8%) were luminal type A, 41 (6.0%) luminal type B, 23 (3.4%) HER2 subtype and 40 (5.9%) were triple negative. The proportion of ER positive cancers is substantially higher than that of symptomatic cancers in our population (89.8% vs. 68.8%), while the 9.4% rate of HER2 positivity is significantly lower than the national average of 15.4% for all breast cancers.
Conclusions: The molecular profile of screen-detected breast cancers is different from that of symptomatic cancers. Since HER2 amplification is a prognostic factor even for small breast cancers, these differences, particularly the relative paucity of HER2 amplification, may account for some of the survival advantages attributable to mammographic detection. The observation of very low rates of HER2 positivity in this cohort suggests that HER2 amplification may not be an early genetic event, but be acquired later in the progression of the disease. It is also possible that HER2 negative cancers, prevalent in screening, are less likely to present as symptomatic tumors. The finding of significant differences in the biomarker profiles of screen detected versus symptomatic cancers has implications for laboratory quality assurance programs in setting target ranges for positive results.

Carrots are good for your vision: true or false?
To this day, children are told that carrots are good for their eyes. But is this saying really true? Or is it just another way to get kids to eat their vegetables? The answer is a complicated as it is both a yes and a no. In short, no, you will not receive super human night vision. However, carrots do contain beta-carotene, a substance that converts to vitamin A, which is important for overall eye health. Some other benefits of the vitamin A received from eating carrots include healthy skin and a healthy immune system.
The myth of carrots providing super human night vision originated with John Cunningham and the British Royal Air Force. Propaganda was spread throughout the 1940s that the pilot, John "Cats' Eyes" Cunningham, was able to see and be such a skilled fighter pilot at night due to his routine diet of carrots! This, of course, was not the actual source of his skill, but rather the "radar" technology developed by the UK. This myth was so wildly believed that British residents began to grow their own carrots in hopes of improving their night vision in the compulsory blackouts during World War II.

Cosmetic Surgery Procedures Increase by 5% in 2010, Says ASPS
Posted: February 9, 2011
page 2 of 3
Cosmetic minimally invasive procedures increased 5%, with nearly 11.6 million procedures in 2010. The top five minimally invasive procedures were:
- Botulinum toxin type A (5.4 million)
- Soft tissue fillers (1.8 million)
- Chemical peel (1.1 million)
- Laser hair removal (938,000)
- Microdermabrasion (825,000)
"Injectables have remained robust despite the economy," says Haeck. "Botox and Dysport injections are up 12%, while, interestingly, fat injections are up 14%, which could reflect how a patient's own fat is being used in more creative ways to rejuvenate the face and body."
Reconstructive plastic surgery, which improves function and appearance to abnormal structures, increased 2% in 2010. The top five reconstructive procedures were:
- Tumor removal (4 million)
- Laceration repair (357,000)
- Scar revision (161,000)
- Hand surgery (106,000)
- Breast reconstruction (93,000)
Breast reconstruction is up 8% in 2010 and is new to the top five reconstructive procedures. It replaces maxillofacial surgery.
"It's been a major goal of the ASPS to increase women's awareness of their breast reconstruction options, so much so that in 2009 the ASPS started a breast reconstruction public education campaign," says Haeck. "It's great that we can report that this procedure is now among the top five reconstructive procedures."

I liked how the Chinese wielder, who was smuggling his family into the ship, was hesitate to help Cusack's family. It was like he was worried that somehow he would be written-up or suspended within the last 15 mins of Humanity's existence.

"I do a similar thing with our left-over mashed potatoes except that I throw in either a can of tuna or a cup of sweet corn kernels. They are delicious eaten cold as well."
"I have made this twice now and the first time round I used a tablespoon of hot vencat curry powder instead of the half teaspoon. I loved it but others found it a little too spicy so for the next time I used just a teaspoon of the same curry. It is delicious. Thank you for sharing"

Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman
I may be a bit biased, but Ron Paul took Krugman to school. He has a way of making Krugman's positions look ridiculous, which in fact they are.
Ron Paul made a reference to Milton Friedman and the Great Depression. Krugman was correct that Friedman actually advocated that the Fed should have printed more money. Ron Paul's point was that the Fed is constantly causing booms and busts, regardless of who is in charge and what the policies are.
I found it amusing that Krugman says that the time after World War II was the most prosperous time in the country's history. First, it really wasn't the most prosperous. If you simply measure growth and an increasing standard of living, the late 19th century was better. Regardless though, as Ron Paul pointed out, the end of World War II brought on liquidations, less regulations, bringing home the troops, drastically less spending, and less debt. Many of the policies followed right after World War II were the epitome of being anti-Krugman.
I liked the point about allowing competition with currencies. Ron Paul makes the point that if he is wrong, then there is nothing lost. But people should be free to use whatever they want in the way of money. Krugman said that people can barter, but that misses the point. Businesses are not free to accept gold and silver and decline the use of federal reserve notes. Even in a bartering situation, people would have to pay taxes on capital gains in gold or silver if it is to be legal.
Krugman said, "do you really think that people use dollar bills only because the federal government isn't allowing them to use other stuff?" But if this is the case, then what is he afraid of? If he thinks that people would use dollars even if there were no legal tender laws, then why doesn't he allow Ron Paul's proposal to stand? Again, if Ron Paul is wrong, then there is nothing lost. Krugman doesn't explain this.
This debate is the debate of the country, or maybe the whole planet. It is a solution of liberty vs. a solution of big government. These two people represent each side well. If you think that more debt, more money creation, and bigger government is the solution, then Paul Krugman is your man. If you think more liberty and drastically less government is the solution, then Ron Paul is your man.

Krugman believes that we need to spend more money to get the economy going. He states that it is "austerity" that is prohibiting our rise out of recession. How can the very thing that has caused our economic calamity, deficit spending, be the cure to what ails us. This is the equivalent of a man in boat filled with water trying to keep it afloat by drilling holes in the bottom of it. Absolute madness. I really wish Ron Paul spoke as clearly as he writes. He was all over the place. Frustrating.

If you go to the link posted in the last comment, Krugman said "everything Paul said about growth after World War II was wrong, but who will ever call him on it?"
But wasn't it Krugman who said that growth was strong during that time? Ron Paul was agreeing with Krugman on this point. The difference is that Ron Paul was saying that there was a major retraction in government during this period (one of the few times in history). - May 1, 2012 at 8:30 PM
