Rumors are always flying when it comes to Jennifer Aniston being pregnant. Unfortunately, not all of the gossip surrounding Jennifer has to do with babies. For weeks, tabloids have claimed that Aniston may cancel her wedding to Justin Theroux. Those allegations seem slightly more likely, after photos surfaced of Aniston spending Thanksgiving with Ed Sheeran.
Like Us on Facebook
Justin Theroux was nowhere in sight, when photos were uploaded of Ed Sheeran's Thanksgiving celebration. Jen was there, however, posing beside both Sheeran and her manager, Aleen Keshishian.
This latest outing has some concerned, especially considering the increasing number of articles that claim the two is splitting. Star went so far as to accuse Theroux of cheating on Aniston, quoting a source as revealing:
"[Justin] gave [the mystery woman] a friendly kiss and a hug when she walked up, which is normal. But what was abnormal was the fact that they were touchy-feely and stood around with their arms around each other...Justin's close affection with the blonde was definitely the talk of the party. It didn't seem like a situation Jen would be happy about."
It's more likely, however, that Jen just isn't in a rush to tie the knot. The 44-year-old actress pretty much said so herself, when she told the press:
"We just want to do it when it's perfect, and we're not rushed, and no one is rushing from a job or rushing to a job. And, you know, we already feel married. We have yet to set any dates. There have been no canceled weddings. There have been no postponed weddings. There have been no arguments about where to get married. Just clearing all that up."

Petr Cech looking to complete Chelsea's 'amazing' year at the Club World Cup in Japan
It would also, Cech said, be deeply "ironic" that in a year of traumatic upheaval – with Andre Villas-Boas and Roberto Di Matteo sacked as managers and Rafael Benítez an unpopular interim with the supporters – Chelsea could end 2012 on an unprecedented high.The 30-year-old goalkeeper who has captained Chelsea and is the most senior player in the absence of the injured pair of John Terry and Frank Lampard — the latter, however, will travel – claimed it was now the "evolution" of football that managers do not last long at clubs. The upheaval, he said, is also worth if it the club is successful."Of course it's not an ideal situation but, on the other hand, you play football to win things and win trophies so in the end if you manage to have trophies then this is what gives you satisfaction," Cech said. "If you have a rollercoaster year but in the end you keep winning trophies you are happy. If you ask anyone who has a nice steady year with no major issues and they win nothing then you don't look forward to it."

Week 11
- Slides shown in class on 4/6/10 are available on MyLMUConnect under "Content".
Overview of Microarray Data Analysis
This is a list of steps required to analyze DNA microarray data.
- Quantitate the fluorescence signal in each spot in the microarray image.
- Typically performed by the scanner software, although third party software packages do exist.
- The image of the microarray slide and this quantitation are considered the "raw-est" form of the data.
- Ideally, this type of raw data would be made publicly available upon publication.
- In practice, the image data is usually not made available because the raw image file of one slide could be up to 100 MB in size.
- Also, some journals do not require data deposition as a requirement for publication, so often published data are not actually available anywhere for download.
- Microarray data is not centrally located on the web. Some major sources are:
- EBI ArrayExpress
- Stanford Microarray Database
- PUMAdb (Princeton Microarray Database)
- In addition, microarray data can sometimes be found as supplementary information with a journal article or on an investigator's own web site.
- Calculate the ratio of red/green fluorescence
- Log(base 2) transform the ratios
- Normalize the log ratios on each microarray slide
- Normalize the log ratios for a set of slides in an experiment
- Perform statistical analysis on the log ratios
- Compare individual genes with known data
- Look for patterns (expression profiles) in the data (many programs are available to do this)
- Perform Gene Ontology term enrichment analysis (we will use MAPPFinder for this)
- Map onto biological pathways (we will use GenMAPP for this)
Preparation for Next Week's Journal Club
In preparation for the Journal Club, each individual will do the following assignment on their individual Week 11 Journal page.
- Make a list of at least 10 biological terms for which you did not know the definitions when you first read the article. Define each of the terms. You can use the glossary in any molecular biology, cell biology, or genetics text book as a source for definitions, or you can use one of many available online biological dictionaries (links below). List the citation(s) for the dictionary(s) you use, providing a URL to the page is fine.
- Write an outline of the article. The length should be the equivalent of 2 pages of standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper. Your outline can be in any form you choose, but you should utilize the wiki syntax of headers and either numbered or bulleted lists to create it. The text of the outline does not have to be complete sentences, but it should answer the questions listed below and have enough information so that others can follow it. However, your outline should be in YOUR OWN WORDS, not copied straight from the article.
- What is the main result presented in this paper? (Hint: look at the last sentence of the introduction and restate it in plain English.)
- What is the importance or significance of this work?
- What were the limitations in previous studies that led them to perform this work?
- What were the methods used in the study?
- What samples did they collect and use for the microarray experiment?
- How many microarray chips did they hybridize in the experiment?
- Which samples were paired to hybridize on the chip?
- Which was labeled red (Cy5)? Which was labeled green (Cy3)?
- How many replicates did they perform of each type?
- Biological replicates are made from entirely different biological samples.
- Technical replicates are made when one biological sample is split at a particular stage in the procedure and then carried through to the end of the procedure.
- What do they say about how they performed each of the steps listed in the Overview of Microarray Data Analysis section above?
- Briefly state the result shown in each of the figures and tables.
- How do the results of this study compare to the results of previous studies (See Discussion).
- Upload your completed PowerPoint slides to your journal page by the Week 11 journal deadline (you may make changes before your presentation Tuesday morning, but I will be evaluating the presenttion you upload.)
Get Acquainted with Your Microarray Dataset
- Find the web site or database where your paper's microarray data are available.
- Download your dataset from this wiki and open it in Excel.
- Match the columns of data with your description of the experimental design from your outline.
Week 12
- Journal Club presentations on your group's paper.
- Statistical analysis of the microarray data
Week 13
- Project work session
- GenMAPP and MAPPFinder Protocols
- For the groups working with Arabidopsis thaliana, Staphylococcus aureus, and Vibrio cholerae, you will need to download the GenMAPP Gene Database for those species from the XMLPipeDB SourceForge site.
Week 14
- Final project presentations in class.
- Course evaluations

Just ordered it! I'm so excited! This will be my 1st 3DHS plane! yay! I'm running a 1350 mAh 3s Thunder Power (sometimes i'll use a 1800 mAh Turnigy Nanotech. I will save up later and buy like 3 1800 mAh Turnigys) with a 103g Omega, a 50a ESC, and Solar digital 11g metal gear servos.

Finally killeded mine
Well over 100 flights, and an least 12 crashes. Fixed the original motor monut 7 times and the scratch built one 5 times, Landing gear ripped totaly out 2 times..... but this crash is it Could fix it again but it will be pretty brittle and the wing is torn now an well as the SFG is pretty trashed.... At some point you have to say "thank you little fella, you can RIP now"
Just finished The 48" EPP Yak 54..... Poor guy has no idea what I am about to put him through for the sake of learning to 3-d better |

Ouch. Ya gave that one a beating.
I've ripped the landing gear out of mine a couple of times but this last fix has held strong thru a few bounces. Only other damage to mine is a cracked trailing wing edge that Happenned on one of the landing gear tear outs. Guess I need to fly lower or crazier. Haha. It is a great plane for learning on for sure. Love it. |

So, what is the final verdict on this plane? Worth buying, or go for something else? I was originally holding off from getting the 48" epp extra for this to come out. Then read about the wing warp issues, and now I'm not seeing as many complaints.
I have the guts to put in this plane, but if I do end up getting the 48" extra I will have to get a new motor since my biggest one is the 103g. I do like the smaller size of this one since I'm wanting something I can keep in the truck and go fly at an open parking lot/soccer field during the winter months and not have to load everything up and make the 30 minute trek to the flying field. Thanks |

Wade go for it. My only thing to say is just check the wing before you put it in. Mine was slightly twisted when I bought it but I caught it before installation and I have had zero issues with it. I love mine. I,m not the best pilot with it yet but I always want to get out and fly it.
Nov 15, 2012, 11:47 PM | |
Yep Wade, do it. mine had no issues except the right roll at full throttle, but its really not designed for fast its made for slow and Low! And it does that great. Mine had aurora lights and i'd fly it on basball fields anytime, day or night. Crashed alot and mine is dead. Have the 48" epp yak and love it but it flys a lot bigger and fatser and is really to big for a keep in the car fly anywhere plane, like the extra. Its pretty big.

Got mine up in the air this past weekend. Anybody have any advice on why I can't do a decent inverted flat spin or elevator? On my 42" Slick, I can just give it full up elevator and no power and it will just float perfectly flat upside down.
But with this plane, I can't keep the nose up; not even close. If I give it throttle, it just snaps around. I'm guessing it's all just a CG issue? I'm also having a problem with wobbly harriers and hovering, which I also suspect is a CG issue. And now that I've typed this all out and "thought out loud" as it were, it looks like I may need to just go fiddle with the CG a bit. |

CSR Previews Wireless Audio Platform For Sound Bar Market At CES 2013
CSR plc (LSE: CSR; NASDAQ: CSRE) will be giving attendees at the International CES 2013 conference and exhibition a private preview of its forthcoming wireless sound bar platform reference design, demonstrating a fully integrated and scalable hardware and software system that provides consumer electronics OEMs a fast, flexible and cost-effective path to producing a range of next-generation sound bar products. The design achieves substantial competitive advantages by offering all the platform components – CSR MAPX™ audio SoC, Bluetooth® wireless SoC and sophisticated integrated system software – from a single source, and signals the company's move to capture the nascent sound bar market.
"With our family of pin and software-compatible MAPX multimedia application processors, OEMs will be able to leverage common solution platforms to develop a variety of sound bar products and bring them to market faster and with lower risk," said Anthony Murray, SVP Business Group at CSR. "CSR is a leader in the industry with a fully integrated hardware and software sound bar solution that gives customers extensive control over the audio processing chain, Bluetooth® streaming, user interface and audio I/O routing without them having to undertake a substantial software development effort, allowing them to deliver quite complex, highly differentiated sound bar products readily and quickly."
According to a recent report [1] from Portland, Oregon-based Quixel Research, sound bars are one of the bright spots in the home entertainment market, racking up Q2 2012 U.S. sales of $200 million, 75 percent above 1Q2012 sales and more than doubling year over year.
The invitation-only demonstration at the CES 2013 show will highlight how the highly integrated MAPX 7-series media application processor and CSR8600™ Bluetooth audio platform can be combined to create a 2.1 channel sound bar home audio system that provides standard-definition audio decoding and processing for HDMI sources, in addition to wireless high-fidelity audio streaming over Bluetooth using the CSR aptX® audio codec when connected to smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices.
The CSR sound bar platform being demonstrated is the first to provide all the wireless connectivity from a single chip, employing a CSR8600 family Bluetooth device to not only allow smartphones, tablets and other Bluetooth enabled devices to stream high-quality audio wirelessly to the sound bar, but also to simultaneously provide low-latency wireless connectivity for the remote subwoofer. This eliminates the need for an additional proprietary radio module, antenna and other components traditionally used in the sound bar for the subwoofer channel, significantly reducing complexity and the potential for interference between the two radios, while also optimising costs. Further, Bluetooth® Smart Ready capabilities provided by the CSR8600 Bluetooth audio platform allows the use of point-anywhere wireless remote controls, as well as mobile device apps for controlling the sound bar and providing the best user experience.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

What Place Is Besieged?
Walt Whitman
What place is besieged, and vainly tries to raise the siege?
Lo, I send to that place a commander, swift, brave, immortal,
And with him horse and foot, and parks of artillery,
And artillery-men, the deadliest that ever fired gun.

Holographic Diffusers are used to control the diffuse area of illumination and increase transmission efficiency to greater than 90% from filament lamps, LEDs, arc lamps, and other sources. Standard ground glass and opal glass will produce diffuse illumination, but the diffuse light area will often exceed the requirements of the system. This over-illumination, associated with traditional diffusers, reduces efficiency and can often lead to added costs by requiring higher power illumination sources, lenses, and possibly filters. It is important to note that diffusing angles are given for a collimated input beam and angular divergence will vary for different incidence angles.
Unlike many holographic elements, these specific polycarbonate components can be used throughout the visible and near-infrared. Available individually, as umounted sheets, or in sets of four filters. Holographic Diffusers can be cleaned with a de-ionized water rinse, followed by a forced air drying. Wipe gently with lens tissue soaked with methanol, followed with a forced clean air or nitrogen drying. Holographic Diffusers are resistant to methanol and methylene chloride.

Two Koreas trade fire across maritime border: military
Published on Mar 31, 2014 12:16 PM
SEOUL - North and South Korea traded fire across their disputed maritime border on Monday, with the South's military saying it had responded to shells landing in its waters from a North live-fire drill.
"Some of the shells fired by North Korea dropped in our area and our side responded with fire," a spokesman for the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff told AFP.
There was no indication that either side was firing at any particular target.

WaPo's Milbank: Walker Disqualified as WH Contender Because He Didn't Condemn Giuliani
Dana Milbank of The Washington Post is throwing a hissy fit at Scott Walker because he didn't condemn former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani for saying that President Obama doesn't love America.
Giuliani made his remarks at a dinner where Walker was the guest of honor.
Milbank tut-tuts:
That dinner Wednesday, at New York's 21 Club, is where Giuliani challenged Obama's love of country. Even the former mayor preceded his outrageous allegation by saying, "I know this is a horrible thing to say . . . "
Walker surely knew it was horrible, too, but he refused to say so — and in this failure he displayed a cowardice unworthy of a man who would be president.

The provision, a part of the Mortgage Reform and Anti-Predatory Lending Act, targets no-income-check loans, also known as "liar loans" or no-documentation loans, and requires that lenders analyze tax returns, payroll receipts ...

- Spanish extra-virgin olive oil
- 20 stalk(s) thin asparagus
- 4 slice(s) jamon Serrano (Spanish cured ham)
- Brush a large skillet or flat griddle with a little olive oil and heat over medium heat.
- Divide the asparagus into 4 bundles of 5 stalks. Wrap each bundle with a slice of ham.
- Place the bundles in the skillet. Cook the asparagus on each side until they caramelize slighty and the ham becomes crispy, 5-8 minutes. Note: Be careful not to let the bundles over cook. You want the asparagus to stay crisp and for the ham not to burn.
Tips & Techniques
If you can only find thick stalks of asparagus, don't worry. All you need to do is blanch them for a few minutes in boiling water before wrapping them with the ham to ensure they cook evenly in the skillet

The economy is recovering at a VERY slow rate. Ben Bernanke recently said that it would take another five years to recover all the jobs lost in the collapse. That would take us to 2016, nearly a decade after the start of the collapse.
So if Harry Reid is right, the Tea Party will be around for several more years at least.

After winning the first game 12-2, the Hornets had to hold off a 7th inning rally by the Pointers to earn the sweep. WIth one out, Van Buren would load the bases thanks to a walk, and a pair of singles. Bryant pitcher Dylan Cross would get out of it, striking out the two final batters.

Some analysts believe that Egypt provided Syria with chemical weapons on the eve of the October 1973 Yom Kippur war. There are reports that Israeli troops captured stockpiles of gas munitions during the conflict but Syria apparently decided not to use them in spite of its eventual defeat.
In 1979, Egypt's peace treaty with Israel fractured already-weak Arab unity in the region. Syrian-Turkish relations deteriorated due to conflicts over water rights, among other things. Syria's then-patron the USSR decided to support theocratic Iran, secular Syria's adversary, in the Iran-Iraq War.
"The combination of increasing political isolation and observed military deficiencies vis-à-vis Israel together provided incentives for Syria to develop a self-sufficient CW capability," concludes a Syrian country report from the nonprofit Nuclear Threat Initiative.
As to the technology of Syria's chemical weaponry, it's likely the Soviet Union added more advanced equipment to the small Egyptian stockpile during the late 1970s and 1980s. Declassified US documents hold that the USSR provided Damascus with training, delivery systems, and chemical agents themselves, according to CRS nonproliferation experts Mary Beth Nikitin, Andrew Feickert, and Paul Kerr.
In 1983, a US estimate stated that Syria could not make chemical weapons on its own. By the middle and late years of the decade, US intelligence had concluded that Damascus was seeking an indigenous production capability for chemical weaponry. It remains unclear whether Syria ever reached that goal.

Transferring Contacts from Bold 9900 to the Z10
Waiting a long time for this new Z10, which takes a little getting used to, but so far, super happy!
In theory transferring data from an OS 7 device is done through the memory card, but i keep getting an error and it does not transfer all my contacts.
I have connected (and downloaded the new Blackberry Desktop Manager) the Bold 9900 to the DM and it also doesn't see the contacts.
I turned off wireless synchronisation and in the end i have 3 accounts.
a) gmail account
b) sky account
c) unknown
The unknown account with most of my contacts doesn't wirelessly sync and I can't seem to be able to transfer them if not sending them 1 by 1.
Any thoughts of how I can get these contacts onto the Z10?? -
Not wishing to upset you, but you may be suffering from a bug to do with contacts. I have a friend with a 9900 and he accidentally synced his 9900 to someone else's laptop and now it looks like every email he sends comes from her. I don't think there is a straightforward solution. There were some threads about using a clean spare Blackberry but they were beyond me. Of course, your issue may be something totally different. How about asking Blackberry tech support?

Similar issue. Tried using the media card a couple of times. Don't seem to work. Missing address book and calendar, two most important items! Frankly, been a die hard fan for about ten years, very frustrating and disappointment! Certainly hope this can be solved ASAP.
I have the same issue. My manual workaround was to sync the contacts and calendar entries on my 9900 (using Blackberry Desktop Manager 'Organizer' option) with Outlook. I exported a CSV file in outlook 2010 for the contacts and one for the calendar entries. I then imported both files into my gmail account (which is not my primary email account). I did delete all contact entries in gmail before I did the import. And finally i created an account on the Z10 to sync both gmail contacts and calendar entries.
I know this is a bit long winded...but that is only what I could come up with for now while this issue is ongoing. Apart from this obvious flaws above, I am not going back to my 9900! Enjoying the BB10 experience (that works!!)
Hope you get yours sorted out soon....
Everything Black! - 02-02-13, 02:25 PM #7
Hi everyone. The best solution I've found is to connect the 9900 to the Z10 via bluetooth. Once paired, in the BT menu on the 9900, select the Z10 by pressing it. When the menu pops up simply select transfer contacts. Job done. Thanks everyone, I'm here all week.

When I connect my Blackberry Torch 9810 with the new Blackberry Link it tells me "Device not Supported by Blackberry Link", but says I can transfer data from this device to a device running Blackberry 10 OS or later.
when I select, Transfer Data:
I don't pick up my Z10 until Tuesday, but I will certainly give it a go then. (Not sure why one image below got posted twice...sorry. Couldn't see where to remove it.) - 02-03-13, 11:29 AM #14
What about BlackBerry protect? You should be able to easily transfer all of your data from BB7 to BB10?
This simple issue must be addressed soon by BlackBerry. Is the one of the features that i alwalys defend most from iLovers or Droids!!!!! The easy way to transfer data from your BB device to your new one!!!

So the easiest way to transfer phone contacts and BBM contacts is by using BBLink? Is there any other better solution here?
- 02-05-13, 07:34 AM Thread Author #19
I just did it today. You need to download a new desktop manager from the blackberry home page called Blackberry Link and just follow instructions. Make sure you turn encryption off on your 9900 and plug both into your computer(you don't have to but if you have 2 USB cables its easier). Worked great for me(after I turned encryption off). This basically transfers everything from one to the other with the exception of a couple of things that aren't compatible.
Transferring the contacts via Bluetooth has been the easiest.
Works with phones from other platforms too.
And in case of syncing issues with email accounts, just do a "rset" solution in address book options page for the unwanted email accounts.
Please DO remember to BACKUP your data using DESKTOP MANAGER before doing it.
If you get duplicate entries in address book, use a small app/utility called Contact cleaner, available in app world.
As always, Backup before is recommended in case something goes wrong.The day when Blackberry makes another true sequel to the BOLD 9000,
That would be the day I will smile, again!

Recently I learned that one in ten girls in Ethiopia does not have a friend. This is heartbreaking… but it also reminds me that all of us--including executives--have a need to be connected. For the young girl in Ethiopia, it is literally about surviving, and thriving. For the executive, being connected is a qualitatively different experience but it, too, is about surviving and thriving. We are human and we have social needs.

4.5 Good value but lacking in quality treborforever | 10/12/2012 | See all treborforever's reviews (1) I've had this alarm clock for a good few months now and whilst it has done me well for what I've needed it for, it's annoying niggles are now making me look for a replacement.Firstly, the hum when the iPod is on dock and playing means there is a distinct hum until playing at louder levels. Initially I could tolerate this but it gets worse as time goes by to the point that 6 months in, it's too annoying to keep on.Secondly, the clock seems to drift after a week or so, meaning that it's seems to creep a bit and change what time it actually is. This has meant I've been late for work in some cases due to this time creep.This may read as a three star review but the lack of a backlight button instead of having it always on and no alarm span options reduces it a star.These aren't major factors but after a few months in, I'm looking for a better quality replacement.
4.5 Great sounds! briangates | 17/09/2012 | See all briangates's reviews (1) great sound quality, can be turned up very loud considering they are only small speakers, the alarm clock works just fine (i should know) all round good buy. thanks
4.5 Sound wise: Excellent lynnshill | 15/09/2012 | See all lynnshill's reviews (8) The sound when playing music through my Ipod is very good, but It has to be plugged in to work, so there aren't any in built batteries, it makes an annoying buzz sound which annoys me in bed.But I am just being picky. It's doubtful you will get anything this goof sound wise for this price
4.5 Amazing for the price! suziej7 | 14/09/2012 | See all suziej7's reviews (1) My parents bought me this for my birthday after I pointed it out to them and I have to say for the price of it, it is absolutely brilliant! The sound is great for something so cheap! It is a bit tricky to work but I've only just started using it so will probably get used to it. Like someone else mentioned there is a slight hum from it when it's charging without any music playing but that doesn't bother me. If you're looking for something along these lines I would most definitely advice you to get this one,you won't be disappointed!!
4.5 Excellent Value For Money LittleOwl30 | 23/04/2012 | See all LittleOwl30's reviews (1) I bought this because I wanted something that was cheap, compact, charged and played my iPod whilst also having the capacity to listen to the radio, set an alarm and see the time in the middle of the night (my hubby is obsessed with doing just that!). This ticks all the boxes - I am especially impressed with the sound quality, it's excellent! Would definitely recommend.
4.5 Racerneil ChangeName57 | 13/04/2012 | See all ChangeName57's reviews (3) Arrived well packed as expected from Play, can't believe how good this dock it, a little hard setting radio pre-sets but only want it as ipod dock, sound it great hard to beleive how good it is..... but one
4.5 . phoenix40 | 18/11/2011 | See all phoenix40's reviews (3) can you use this dock for the ipod touch 4th gen??????
4.5 almost perfect... nomatter | 19/05/2011 | See all nomatter's reviews (23) it's working great, looking very much ok etc etc... unfortunately whenever i plug my iPod in the speaker starts to make cracking noises... it's slightly annoying as the only way to get rid of them is to put the volume up... and well i don't always want to listen to loud music... anyway for that price is pretty ok
4.5 Good while it lasted iMeTaLjUsTiCe | 16/04/2011 | See all iMeTaLjUsTiCe's reviews (15) It has good sound quality and is good as an alarm clock, but now the pins are broke due to a major design fault that asks you to firce the iPod onto the dock, which means that over time, it WILL break. I'd look for a better one than this.
4.5 Excellent product, easy to use anders121 | 19/02/2011 | See all anders121's reviews (1) this clock radio has great sound, simple instructions and easy on/off buttons to set/cancel the alarm. easy radio station tuning and separate volume set for alarm. my 8yr loves his and i'm so impressed i'm ordering one too. only drawback is no backup battery in case of powercut but we don't have many cuts so should be ok.

Dubai: The top official from the world of professional tennis has backed men's sport to scale even greater heights in the future.

Drewett backs rise of men's tennis
Newly-appointed ATP boss is upbeat about sport as he prepares to share plans with board

- Brad Drewett, the new Executive Chairman and President of ATP, believes there is no need for him to revolutionise the sport following his appointment on January 1.
Brad Drewett, the ATP's new Executive Chairman and President, believes there is no need for him to revolutionise the sport following his appointment on January 1.
"Would I change anything? Men's tennis at the moment is as strong as it has ever been, both on and off the court. We have an amazing group of players and three of these — Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer — are among the best sportsmen in the world today," Drewett told Gulf News in a candid chat.
"And then there is a band of exciting names like Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Tomas Berdych, David Ferrer, Andy Murray and Gael Monfils who all have great personalities. And this depth goes all the way down to 20 and even the top 50.
"We have such great players on court and commercially, television and sponsorships are very strong. My role is to keep this momentum and maintain this growth going in the same direction." Tennis has been a major aspect of Drewett's life for many years, whether as a professional player on the ATP World Tour, or now on the business side of the game. Before taking on his new role, he had served as the ATP's CEO for the International Group, since 2006, overseeing the ATP's operations in the Middle East, Asia and Pacific regions.
Great responsibility
Prior to that, Drewett led the region as Managing Director from 2003 to 2005 and was Executive Vice-Chairman from 1999 to 2003. He had also been an elected member on the ATP Player Council from 1993 to 1999 and an elected representative on the ATP Player Board.
"I am very excited with this new role after being involved with tennis all my life. Men's tennis, I believe, is one of the greatest sports. It's very successful on the planet at the moment and it is a great responsibility to lead the organisation for the next two years," he said.
"The major challenge for me is to maximise the true potential that we have and obviously we are doing very well now, but we need to take things a bit higher."
The 53-year-old will meet the ATP Board for the first time in Monte Carlo in April and that is when he proposes to present his plans to push men's tennis to another level.

A 37-year-old Georgetown woman has been charged with careless driving and driving with a handheld communications device after a crash on Guelph St. that killed an 89-year-old woman.
The collision occurred Dec. 17 while Patricia McCarthy, 89, of Georgetown was crossing in the crosswalk at Guelph St. at Sinclair Ave. McCarthy succumbed to her injuries Dec. 20.
Jennifer Unsworth is charged under the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) and has been summoned to appear in a Milton court March 25.
Sergeant Paul Davies, of the collision reconstruction unit, said police decided to lay HTA charges and not more serious criminal charges because "the evidence best fit HTA."
He said he could not elaborate on what that evidence is.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
Describes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
The purpose of this study is to find out if giving the study drug Ruxolitinib (INC424) prior to a combination of other chemotherapeutic drugs (Fludarabine and Busulfan) before infusing another person's hematopoietic stem cells (bone marrow transplantation) will be successful in people who have advanced primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF) or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (PET-MF), collectively known as myelofibrosis (MF). MF is a disorder in which bone marrow tissue develops in abnormal sites because the bone marrow itself undergoes fibrosis or scarring. This study plans to evaluate whether adding the drug Ruxolitinib will further aid in reducing pre-transplant spleen size, improve physical performance levels and reduce adverse events (side effects) related to the transplant. Ruxolitinib is a drug that is approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with advanced forms of myelofibrosis. Using Ruxolitinib prior to stem cell transplantation is experimental.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla.
This is a phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SGN-CD19A in adult and pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), Burkitt lymphoma or leukemia, or B-lineage lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL).
This phase II pilot trial studies how well ruxolitinib phosphate and danazol work in treating anemia in patients with myelofibrosis. Ruxolitinib phosphate and danazol may cause the body to make more red blood cells. They are used to treat anemia in patients with myelofibrosis.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.
Panobinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well panobinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of patisiran (ALN-TTR02) in patients with transthyretin (TTR) mediated amyloidosis.
This study is being conducted to examine the safety and tolerability of SGN-LIV1A in patients with metastatic breast cancer, and to find the highest dose of the drug that can be given without unacceptable side effects. Other goals of the trial are to find out if SGN-LIV1A has any antitumor effects, to learn about the pharmacokinetics of SGN-LIV1A, and to explore the relationship between antigen expression and SGN-LIV1A effects.
The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety profile, characterize pharmacokinetics (PK) and determine the dosing schedule, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase 2 dose (RPTD) of ABT-199 when administered in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.
The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety profile, characterize pharmacokinetics (PK) and determine the dosing schedule, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and the recommended phase two dose (RPTD) of ABT-199 when administered in subjects with relapsed /refactory multiple myeloma who are receiving bortezomib and dexamethasone as their standard therapy.
This pilot clinical trial studies scrambler therapy in treating pain and peripheral neuropathy in patients previously treated with chemotherapy. Scrambler therapy may help relieve pain from peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy.

Ordering for a Team? Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
I love the bright colors but I am having some trouble with the back of my hair getting wet while swimming laps.
Another Sporti product that delivers! Colors are great and keeps the water out and it stay's tightly on your head!
This cap is so cute, I love it!!! I was looking for another cap because I didn't like the way that my old cap would slide up my forehead while swimming. So far this cap doesn't ride up nearly as much as my old one, it's great.
I like this product very much. It's comfortable
You gotta get the matching suit. This cap like all silicone caps is kind to the hair. It is a regular cap, though. My head is rather large so a long hair cap fits me better but it is still worth it to match my suit.
I was a bit nervous because I did not know the brand of the product so was afraid the quality wouldn't be as good as named brands but it is and I will now be ordering more of them. I live in Ireland and swim in the sea all year round so it is important that the cap is thick to keep the cold out and it is.
I love this swim cap. I have it in the purple/pink and I find it just the right amount of funky. Great quality for the price.

Not considering the shotgun vs pistol for home SD arguments, there is only one issue concerning the pistol. If you can't carry all the time, and you go with pistol, just make sure to secure it in a safe / lock-box when not in use. If one of your roomates or family gets ahold of the pistol and does something (stupid things happen), I think there are more laws concerning pistols then shotguns. Just a rough though.
IMO, go pistol. Easier to secure.

Went here and learned a ton in a short period of time about the underground railroad. It was seriously interesting. I did not realize Delaware's roll in it or that heroes of slavery were right here in our state.
Nice place to visit, if you can find parking. Not the Archives fault, blame the city. But the Archives does host the Dover Genealogy group, so its not too bad. Worth a visit if you are doing research, the building itself isnt too historical.
If you are looking to learn more about the state's history or that of your own family, the Delaware Public Archives has a wealth of resources to aid in your studies. The staff is very helpful and the materials are well organized, making it easy to gather information on a variety of subjects.
If you're not from Delaware (I'm not), why would you want to visit the state archives? I did because I was with a tour group -- I doubt I'd have ventured here on my on. But I'm glad I did. Our guide was friendly, appropriately humorous, and exceedingly knowledgeable. The impressive reading room where the tour began was adored with... More
Very helpful eager staff but getting in is kind of a hassle( no phones, pens, or anything else allowed). They have lockers to put all your stuff in. They have lots of information on just about anything in the state, although I do worry about the old newspapers being in folders.
I went to the archives to find out more about the history of education in our school District which is in the city of Dover. Everyone at the archives was extremely helpful and even made some copies for me as needed. They seemed to enjoy the journey of discovery as much as I did. They pointed me to some collections... More
I learned so much about Delaware and its significance from the exhibits here. It is definitely worth a trip, whether you're a tourist or a local.
I am a genealogist (when time allows) and love visiting cemeteries when I travel. This place is like a second home to me, I only wish they were open more often and had longer hours (like they used to), but I understand cutbacks are cutbacks. The staff are wonderful, very helpful and very knowledgeble.
Great place to visit. There is a brief exhibit of Delaware History. If you need genalogy for Delaware ancestors...this is the place to go. They have a wonderful collection availble and the clerks are extremely helpful. Suggest you go on You tube first...The Delaware Archives has several 5 minute clips giving you a mini tour and what to expect if... More

I saw the original of this type of chair at a design store and loved it. I was thrilled when I found a more affordable version on overstock. The chair looks great and is very easy to assemble. Sadly, 2 years later I need to find a replacement. I used the chair 2-4 hours a day. Over time it got a little squeaky when swivelling. Luckily I didn't glue the cushion to the seat, since I had to tighten the screws every 6 months or so. Unfortunately at some point the screw threads wore off, just from sitting. I can no longer attach the chair top section to the base. The white part of the chair still looks brand new, but the cushion definitely looks a bit dirty. If you plan on using this chair for mostly decorating or very occasional sitting, this chair would be a great choice. Sadly, not great if you plan on using it on a daily basis.
Got this chair as an office chair. The assembly is simple. It is really comfy and looks fabulous!

Amando M. Tetangco Jr, Philippines
The Philippines has seen strong growth with tame inflation and a current account surplus, a lot of it thanks to a well-balanced monetary policy
Analysts say the governor of the Philippines central bank, Amando Tetangco, managed monetary policy well in the face of the twin threats posed by the eurozone debt crisis and a slowdown in Chinese growth. Tetangco is a career central banker, who joined the institution in 1974 and was reappointed to a second six-year term as governor in July last year.
The bank was one of the last central banks in the region to begin normalizing interest rates from the extraordinary accommodative policy seen in the wake of the global financial turmoil, implementing two 25 basis points (bps) hikes that left rates at 4.50% in May of 2011. This year it has chopped a combined 75 bps via a 25 bps reduction to 4.25% in January, a 25 bps cut to 4.0% in March and another 25 bps cut in July, bringing the interest rate to a record low 3.75%.
The central bank has also done a good job on communicating what theyre doing and why theyre acting, says Nigel Chalk, managing director and head of emerging Asia research at Barclays Capital. Tetangco also deserves credit for resisting the temptation to introduce capital controls in the face of speculative inflows, he says.
Gareth Leather, Asia Economist at London-based Capital Markets says that there is speculation that further upgrades by the credit ratings agencies are on the cards, which would benefit the country. Leather says that efforts at tightening tax collection and anti-corruption standards helped the Philippines to attain another ratings upgrade this year, with an investment-grade status now within sight.
Ratings agency Standard & Poors (S&P) has raised the Philippines credit rating to BB+ from BB, the highest level since 2003, taking it one step closer to its aim to become an investment-grade economy.
After subdued growth in 2011, the economy rebounded strongly in the first quarter of 2012 to a year-on-year rate of 6.4% among the best performing in Asia partly reflecting a spike in net exports and fixed investment.
In its recent Article IV assessment, the IMF said that growth was expected to stabilize around 4.8% and 4.9% in 2012 and 2013 respectively. The Philippine economy has sustained its solid momentum, and has the policy space to support growth if tail risks from the global economy materialize, the assessment said.
When he accepted his first appointment as Philippines central bank governor back in 2005, Amando Tetangco thought that there was no need to reinvent the wheel.
What we need to do, Tetangco remembers thinking at the time, is to make sure that the wheel continues to turn in the direction that we had intended it to, smoothly, with minimum bumps along the way. Fortunately during the early part of my first term that wheel turned the way we wanted it to.
But then came 2007, with its subprime mortgages crisis, which quickly spread and brought on the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the global recession. So suddenly, given the developments, not reinventing the wheel, which I thought was going to be my approach, was no longer going to be enough, he tells Emerging Markets.
The central bank enhanced its policy toolkit by putting in place liquidity measures to maintain confidence in the banking system, expanded its tools for the open market operations, improved surveillance and modelling. During Tetangcos second term, which started in the second part of last year, the banks mandate has expanded, and it started to look at financial stability as something that should accompany price stability.
If there is more active risk taking in the economy, this can make that economy more vulnerable than before to asset bubbles, so we needed to sharpen our monitoring of market behaviour and be creative in implementing market-based solutions to reduce, contain or eliminate asset bubbles, says Tetangco, who adds that there are no indications of stretched market valuations right now.
Maintaining a sound banking system has been a crucial part of the central banks strategy and has supported the countrys economic advance. The banks assets have been increasing while the ratio of non-performing loans has been declining. That shows that the banks would not only be chasing every credit exposure possible, but they also evaluate and make sure that the credit that they extend would be good, he says. The liquidity that has been available in the system has helped finance the economic growth of the country.
Philippines external position is robust, with the current account in structural surplus for the past 10 years. This has allowed us to build up our international reserves which, as of the end of August, reached about $80 billion from $75 billion at the end of 2011, Tetangco says, adding that the strong external position has contributed to the series of upgrades by ratings agencies, as it was seen as a source of strength for the economy.
Investment grade is in our sight, given the good performance of the economy, the improvement in the fiscal position of the country and the low and stable inflation, he says. This has contributed to the strengthening of the economic fundamentals, which will help us achieve sustained growth over the medium and the long term.
