Common warts are small, grainy skin growths that occur most often on your fingers or hands. Rough to the touch, common warts also often feature a pattern of tiny black dots — sometimes called seeds — which are small, clotted blood vessels.
Common warts are caused by a virus and are transmitted by touch. Children and young adults are more likely to develop common warts, as are people who have weakened immune systems. Common warts usually disappear on their own, but many people choose to remove them because they find them bothersome or embarrassing.
Common warts are:
Common warts usually occur on your fingers and hands. They may occur singly or in multiples. Warts may bleed if picked or cut. They often contain tiny black dots, which are small, clotted blood vessels.
Most common warts don't require medical treatment, but some people choose to have their warts treated because they're bothersome, spreading or a cosmetic concern.
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are more than 100 types of HPV, and different types of the virus cause different types of warts. Most types of HPV cause relatively harmless conditions such as common warts, while others may cause serious disease such as cancer of the cervix.
Wart viruses pass from person to person. You can also get the wart virus indirectly by touching a towel or object used by someone who has the virus. Each person's immune system responds to the HPV virus differently, so not everyone who comes in contact with HPV develops warts.
If you have warts, you can spread the virus to other places on your own body. Warts usually spread through breaks in your skin, such as a hangnail or scrape. Biting your nails also can cause warts to spread on your fingertips and around your nails.
People at higher risk of developing common warts include:
Because warts shed HPV, new warts can appear as quickly as old ones go away. They can also spread to other people.
Although most warts don't require medical treatment, some people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or because their location makes them uncomfortable. If your warts don't respond to conservative treatments, you might be referred to a doctor who specializes in skin disorders (dermatologist).
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your time together. For warts, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor may also have some questions for you, such as:
Your doctor can usually diagnose a wart just by looking at it. Sometimes, your doctor may scrape off the top layer of the wart to look for the clotted blood vessels that are common with warts. If the diagnosis is still in doubt, your doctor may take a small sample to be analyzed in order to rule out other types of skin growths.
Many common warts don't require treatment. They usually disappear within two years, though new ones may develop nearby. You may want to treat them for cosmetic purposes, if they're causing discomfort or to prevent their spread. Home treatment is often effective in curing common warts.
If you have stubborn warts and home treatment isn't helping, your doctor may suggest one of the following approaches, based on the location of your wart, the degree of your symptoms and your preferences. Doctors generally start with the least painful, least destructive methods, especially when dealing with young children.
Many people have removed warts with:
Avoiding cross-contamination can reduce the risk that you or your child will get or spread warts. Examples include:

Students warm to Channel 9 weather man
Thursday, January 24, 2013
ROCHESTER — For some people, the technical aspects of weather forecasting may be a dry subject, but Kevin Skarupa, Channel 9's morning meteorologist, with his sunny smile and infectious enthusiasm, was able to make the topic engrossing for School Street School students, during a recent visit.
He told the students there are 50 different cloud types (but didn't complicate matters further by mentioning Undulus Asperatus, which the Cloud Appreciation Society is lobbying for as an additional species).
He explained how hailstones are formed — they usually only reach a maximum of golf ball size in New Hampshire — and asked the students what is needed to form a rainbow. Sun and rain, they responded, and he reminded them that they can achieve the same effect with a garden hose.
Kindergartner Hayley Peace-McClelland asked, "How do you make rain?" After Skarupa explained the formation and content of clouds, and what triggers rain from them, he said that sometimes clouds travel great distances before releasing their content. He gave as an example, storm clouds coming over the Atlantic all the way from Africa, and, over Florida, releasing rain that contained copious amounts of Saharan sand grains.

My Favorite Aragorn Stories
Playlist Navigation Bar
The Sword of Elendil: 20. Beyond the Circles of the World
In the torchlight Halbarad saw a clutter of monstrous clubs in a pile to the right. Beyond, in the gloom, loomed vast shapes, silent, motionless. Bones and ragged bits of hide strewn on the floor showed that the Troll had not always eaten her catch whole. Just beyond the smaller opening—the Troll must have had to stoop to enter—the rough-hewn, dark rock soared up to a narrow roof where the dark shapes of sleeping bats hung.
They moved cautiously to the larger space where ancient chests stood against the walls, covered with skins. Giving his torch to Aragorn, Halbarad heaved open one massive lid to reveal a jumble of broken daggers, pieces of armor, bones—some human—with shreds of dried flesh attached. He dropped the lid in disgust. If the chest held coins or jewels, it would take work to find them.
On the other side was a crude wooden table as high as Halbarad was tall, beside it a vast carved stone tub, set to catch a trickle of water off the cave wall. On the table were several human skulls, upside down and without their jaws. Halbarad saw a glimmer of liquid through the eyeholes and muttered, "Some mother's son, now a drinking cup." Aragorn shuddered and moved deeper into the cave. He gestured Halbarad forward: a bend in the passage loomed ahead. Cautiously and noiselessly they rounded it, to find the Troll's hoard: weapons of all kinds littered the floor. In the flickering torchlight gleamed many swords and axes.
Halbarad drew one blade and fingered the edge. "This is a fine weapon that we should put to use against our enemies." He placed it against the wall and picked up a heavy leather scabbard: the knife within bore a black pommel carved with a hideous red face at its end. In revulsion he dropped it. "A weapon of the Enemy, no mistake."
Last were several pots of copper and silver coins. Beyond, a dark, low tunnel dug into the bowels of the earth.
The company loaded two sturdy pack horses, brought from the main Ranger camp, with as much of the valuables from the Troll's hoard as the beasts could carry. The coin and weapons all would be of great worth to the Dúnedain in use and trade. They hastily buried what human remains could be quickly removed from the loathsome den. Halbarad tried not to think about Rodnion rotting beneath the earth, soon to be bones like these, but the image of the dead boy would not leave his mind.
The journey home seemed endless. Even the blossoming spring did not lighten Halbarad's mood. When dark fell, Rodnor curled up to sleep between Malbeth and the two great hounds, but even so he had bad dreams nearly every night. His nightmare cries of fear and sorrow shook Halbarad's heart. Aragorn also seemed to be passing restless nights, but he growled at Halbarad's questions or expressions of concern. Halbarad stomped off in disgust. Manwë asking Fëanor for the Silmarils probably got a more friendly response.
Halbarad struggled to keep up his own spirits. He dreaded telling Hawk the news of his grandson's ghastly death. But Goenor shook his head. "No, Halbarad, it will be best from me. I am the leader of this troop and his lifelong friend."
Halbarad nodded, and glanced at Aragorn to catch his eye. But Aragorn sat alone, his shoulders slumped, wholly absorbed in his private sorrow. Irritated, Halbarad wondered if Aragorn thought death was any easier for the rest of them, just because they had known it all their lives.
The people of the Angle were busy with the spring sowing as the company journeyed to Thurnost, and there were few other travelers on the road. The Keep, too, was quiet. Except for the men needed to guard the perimeter of the Angle and the Keep itself, all Rangers were now in the Wild till winter set in. Hawk had gone to Tharbad, and Goenor and Malbeth soon left to bring him the tidings of Rodnion's death and to bolster the post. Ivorwen took Rodnor to stay for a time with her family in the Commons, to look after him in his grief. Hallor buried himself in his work, and often traveled the perimeter of the Angle.
Even Idhril was gone; she had at last gotten leave for a sojourn in Rivendell to learn healing from Master Elrond. Her heart's desire, but lonely for me. At least we could have mourned together. He thought often of his dead mother. When he spoke to Aragorn of his own anguish, the reply was a curt "So be it." His temper rising, Halbarad was about to tell Aragorn just what he thought of him when he noticed Fíriel creeping around like a frightened cat as she performed her duties. He left with an abrupt turn, and told his father he wished to spend more time at the Point, where he was needed.
Aragorn put his low mood down to a weariness such as he had never known. In Thurnost, at least, he would rest and regain his strength and spirits. With Daeron gone, and minds turned away from past troubles, surely the mood in the Keep would have improved. But everything seemed grey and faded. What ails me? Never have I felt such despair. He wanted more than anything to be left alone.
He threw himself into work to raise his spirits. And he had much to do: without Daeron, arms training fell upon the other Rangers. Every morning he taught the sword to Rodnor and a few other gangly, half-grown boys; the rest of the day he divided between caring for the horses and helping in the healer's cottage, shorthanded in Idhril's absence. When Halbarad, he felt only relief at finally being left alone. Now he would be pressed with questions he did not want to answer.
He thought often of his great-grandmother, as if his grief over her death had not faded, but rather grown. He went by horseback to pay his respects at the barrow where Saelind now lay next to her lord, Argonui son of Arathorn I, the last chieftain buried in the Angle. But he found no comfort there. Her wisdom, her good heart—all had come to this, a cold grave. Even the trilling of a thrush in the tall grass did not lift his heart.
At night, a dream troubled him in endless repetition.
A dreary rain fell, chill and sad, upon the stark slopes of the mountain top. Alone, he struggled on foot up a desolate path. He bore no arms, carried no pack. Suddenly, as if out of the very air, Orcs and fierce Men attacked. Disarmed as he was, he fought with fists and feet, but without hope. Death bit his flesh….mourners dressed in black, keening their sorrow, followed a woman weeping, her face covered in a dark veil. She stood before a bier. In dread, he, as one of the mourners, approached the bed of the newly dead. But no man lay there, only the Sword that was Broken, with blood on its edge.
Whenever this dream came, he did not sleep again that night. He would rise, light a lantern and read the small book Saelind had given him. But sometimes that proved a poor remedy, as when he happened upon a melancholy ode on the doom of mortals.
The weariness, the fever, and the fret
Here, where men sit and hear each other groan;
Where palsy shakes a few, sad, last gray hairs,
Where youth grows pale, and specter-thin, and dies;
Where but to think is to be full of sorrow
And leaden-eyed despairs,
Where Beauty cannot keep her lustrous eyes,
Or new Love pine at them beyond tomorrow.
One afternoon Aragorn left the Keep for the woods just across the inlet to seek the early summer's young leaves of athelas. Even here, where the Dúnedain had lived for so many years, the plant was difficult to find, growing in shaded mossy gaps between stones near a spring or small stream. On the banks of a tiny waterfall gurgling over rocks and tree roots, he found a few dark leaves large enough to cull and tucked them into his pouch. His heart was heavy with the memory of a woman whose life the healers had barely saved that very morning. Her baby had died. At least the fresh athelas would bring the young wife, barely more than a girl, some soothing in her grief. The beauty of the summer seemed to insult her short life and cruel death.
Heading back, he followed the stream south toward the Keep. The rich woodsy water had cut a cleft in the earth on its way to the inlet. Here Aragorn sat down on the bank; moss and small pink and white flowers grew in the stony mouth where the clear water flowed into the murky blue of the deep, narrow bay washing up against the dark walls of the Keep. A frog burped in the shallows; flies droned in the warm air of the late afternoon sun. He had gone swimming here before and found the water cool and brisk, so inviting in the heat of the day. Carefully taking the silver chain with the Ring of Barahir from his neck, he stripped off his clothes, and waded into the shallows. A few feet in, the water dropped to unfathomable depths. He struck out with broad, strong strokes for the deep stream.
Hoping to expend his despair in action, he swam with his greatest speed and strength toward the mouth where the bay joined the Hoarwell, strong and cold with the melt water from the mountains far to the north. There the circling current had carved a great bowl into the black rock of the Keep. Closing his eyes, he lay upon his back, drifting with the power of the eddy.
The water embraced him like a mother's arms, whispering come to me, rest now, rest.…
How easy it would be! Just a few more strokes would carry him into the main channel of the Hoarwell. The power of the river would take him forever.
The current pushing his body grew stronger. He opened his eyes; the serenity of the sky caressed his sight. There against a silvery cloud spread the dark wings of a queen's falcon, blessing his choice. He turned over and lifted his head to find the shortest way to the Hoarwell, and as his ears broke into the air, the murmuring of the river ceased.
Kee kee kee.
Treading water, he looked up. The falcon circled, crying yet again.
Awareness jolted him like a scream in the night. What am I doing?
He turned back, swimming hard. Every time his head emerged from the water, he heard the cries of the falcon. But by the time he reached the shore where he had left his clothes and kit, the raptor had gone from the sky. Climbing out of the dark water, he lay back on the mossy bank and panted for breath. His eyes fell upon the Ring of Barahir glinting gold and green in the spill of silver chain.
To drown myself! What kind of man am I, to be so weak? No true son of Beren, certainly.
Shaken, he dressed quickly and set out with broad strides for the Keep. Night was falling by the time he reached the Commons, and the evening meal already past. Two young women were sweeping the floor as he walked through; they lifted their eyes and smiled shyly. Their obvious admiration only served to dishearten him still more. Every one but the one I want.
As he was filling a bowl from the soup pot simmering at the kitchen hearth, Ivorwen appeared at the pantry door. "Good evening, grandson. We missed you at supper."
He made an effort to smile. "I'll be content with soup and bread. Please do not trouble yourself."
She poured him a mug of ale and, taking up some mending from a basket, sat across from him at the rough wooden table spanning the wall covered with small pots of herbs, jam and honey. Her silent warmth comforted him, and he felt the strain in his shoulders begin to soothe. His bowl empty, he put his head in his hands and drew his fingers through his tangled hair.
Ivorwen reached out and patted his arm. "Estel."
He looked up. "You've never called me by that name before."
"I caught it from Gilraen in Rivendell, and found that it suits you."
He chuckled. "But you would not say it around Grandfather."
Her smile was mischievous. "Perhaps, perhaps not. In any case, he is far away in Sarn Ford. Come, my child. You are grieving, and you don't even know it."
Wondering, he let her draw his hand into her two. "Grieving? And should I not? Rodnion's death was a cruel waste."
She stroked his roughened fingers. "So true. But perhaps your grief is more than that."
"My great-grandmother, too, of course, for all her time had come. It is still bitter, and I do not know how to mourn."
She tightened her hold on his hand. "I miss her sorely. So many loved ones have died, but it never gets easier."
"Perhaps my trouble is being so new to mortal life. There are no barrows in Rivendell."
She sighed. "No indeed. So lovely, so enchanting."
Only memory now. My home is here. But the memory of Arwen's smile as he held her in his arms was keen and sharp as a sword point. He looked up to see his grandmother's sweet and loving eyes upon him. She pressed his hand again. "You are not as new to mortal life as you think, grandson. You do not remember your first years, but I do. Death is a terrible shock to a small child, perhaps more because they do not understand and cannot speak of it. Your father was suddenly gone from your life. Perhaps his death marked you more than you know. Shall I tell you?"
Her words struck him like a flash of light. "Please."
"When I saw Elladan and Elrohir at the door of the Commons, I knew. Beleg was with them, of course, his head swathed in bandages. But Arathorn was not." She sighed, pain etched on her face. "I brought the news to Gilraen. She and Ariel were in the solar at their needlework. You were playing with your toys on the floor, absorbed by your game. And they, too, knew by the sight of me. I didn't even know till I touched my own face that I was already crying. 'Mother?' was all she said. 'Slain,' I said. We clutched each other, all three of us, crying, unable to speak. Then I felt a tugging at my skirts, and there you were, questions and fright all over your little face. I've cared for enough small children in my day to know that while they may not understand what has happened, they catch the mood. And so it was with you. Gilraen collapsed utterly for the rest of the day and all of the next, and the next after that, and I took you from her. She couldn't care for a child."
Ivorwen raised her hands in a gesture of sorrow and resignation, and her voice fell to a whisper. "My Sight was strong that day, and I saw darkness and fear, and all the more when I held you in my arms. I kept you with me for all those days, and you were either pale and silent, or crying with terror. I know you don't remember, but I do. Then Gilraen came to herself again. That evening she spoke long with Elladan and Elrohir, and I hoped that she was beginning to master her grief. I put you back in her arms, and I saw that you were her greatest solace. You mourned, child. But then you forgot. And your grief is still there, somewhere in your heart."
I grieved for my father. I do not remember his face, but I mourned him. It seemed right and true. He lifted his grandmother's hand and kissed it. "Thank you. I needed to hear that. And now I know what I should do. I have sometimes thought to find his grave in the Wild, and now I know I must." And I will take the Sword with me—the Sword that my father, too, carried in his time.
Her smile broke through her sadness. "That would be a very good thing to do."
As he expected, Hallor was more than willing to allow him leave, despite the desperate need for Rangers. "No man could deny you this, least of all me. Furthermore, a journey to the country where he met his death would be useful beyond its importance to you. I mistrust the reports of quiet we hear from east of the Weather Hills. Let's hope you find nothing but a grave, and no sign of the enemy. You cannot go alone, however. Who can go with you? Beleg was there at the time, but he lost all memory of what happened and would not know the way."
The thought of such a journey with Beleg and his changeable moods dismayed Aragorn. "Not Beleg. Elladan and Elrohir will go with me. They offered to do so two years ago, but I didn't see the need, and was eager to be here. Now I understand it better."
Hallor nodded. "Take Halbarad, too. He has just returned from duty on the perimeter."
But Aragorn shook his head. "This is a thing for me to do alone, with my brothers only. They promised to come to Thurnost this summer, when their duties allow, to bring greetings from Rivendell and its Master. I will ask them to bring me to the grave."
Hallor raised his eyebrows and seemed about to object, but then his face softened. "Well, it is your wish, of course. I will be truly glad to welcome the sons of Elrond to the Keep, and I do hope they bring my daughter with them. She is needed."
Aragorn thanked him, and took his leave. His decision brought him a measure of relief from his gloom. That evening, absorbed in his thoughts and staring distractedly at his feet, he strode out of his quarters toward the stairs down to the Great Hall—and ploughed right into Halbarad. Halbarad called out, bracing his hands against his friend. "Hold there, Aragorn!"
He looked up. "My pardon, I am stupidly distracted."
"Not stupidly."
"Thanks for your kindness." He made as if to pass, feeling guilty for his coolness and distance from his friend.
"No, you don't."
Only then did Aragorn notice the frown and the heat of anger in Halbarad's eyes. "What's the matter?"
"The matter?" Halbarad raised his voice. "You've been avoiding me for weeks. And now you plan a journey to your father's grave, and I am not to come?"
"Hallor shouldn't have told you."
"And why not? I am your friend and your cousin. I'm going too."
"No, you're not."
"Besides, I knew it already."
"You did not."
"I did. I can read you, Aragorn, however secretive you get."
That was just what Aragorn did not want. "No, you can't," he said, raising his voice in turn. "It's none of your business. Now get out of my way." He hardly understood the hot surge of rage that shot like a bolt into his head, but all his pain and sadness fed it.
"If you leave me behind, I'll track you," Halbarad hissed. "You know I can."
"You dare not track me," Aragorn snarled. "I command you to stay. And my brothers are going with me, anyway."
By this point they were eye to eye and both red-faced.
"They are going, and not me? Your 'brothers'? Am I not your brother? You 'command' me? We'll see about that!" Halbarad threw a punch that landed on Aragorn's left eye.
Taken by surprise, Aragorn blocked the blow too late. Enraged, he balled up his fist and smacked Halbarad on the nose.
The hallway was too narrow for a good fight, and the force of their swings soon had both of them leaning up against the walls to either side, holding sorry hands to their bruises and groaning. Then they burst out laughing and fell into each other's arms. Halbarad's bloody nose smeared Aragorn's beard.
Running feet sounded along with their boisterous laughter. "What is this disgrace?" boomed a great voice. "Brawling like drunkards in the Commons?"
Aragorn looked over Halbarad's shoulder to see the acting chieftain standing there, his face warring between disapproval and laughter. "Nothing to worry about, Hallor. Merely two brothers solving a dispute in the manly fashion." He thumped Halbarad on the back.
"Ouch! You'll pay for that. I'm coming now, right?"
"I dare not deny you."
And they began laughing again.
A week later, Aragorn's black eye had faded, but Elladan and Elrohir had still not come, nor had Idhril returned from Rivendell. "Good thing, too," Halbarad said. "I would have a lot of explaining to do, punching out their little brother."
Aragorn laughed. "When you know them, you will not say that."
Halbarad could not imagine what he meant. As fair as Elf lords, they say. He had known very few Elves—Gildor Inglorion and his companions sometimes spoke with Rangers in the Wild, but others rarely traveled. Why should they leave their havens for this treacherous world? A good question. The sons of Elrond, however, were famous for their ceaseless Orc hunting in vengeance for their mother's torment. Surely they were far too serious and grim to be brawling in the hallways.
Halbarad was engaged in an archery lesson with a moody Rodnor when the gate warden's bell rang, announcing visitors to the Keep. "Hold, Rodnor," he said to the boy, who was about to nock another arrow. "Let's go greet the guests."
They hurried to the gate, but even so, Aragorn was already there, embracing two tall, dark-haired figures, their fair, smooth faces alight with joy. Ivorwen and Hallor stood respectfully by, and bowed in formal greeting. A silent crowd of gawking people gathered around them.
"Halbarad!" His sister flung herself into his arms. Bright-eyed, she wore a handsome cloak that Halbarad had never seen.
"You return looking like a queen, sister."
Idhril spread wide the sleeves of her furred mantel. "Isn't it lovely? Gilraen made it. She made me dresses, too. Ah! She is charming and so very beautiful."
Laughing, Halbarad hugged her hard. "I have missed you terribly."
Then he noticed that Rodnor stood frozen, his face white and drawn. "What is it?"
"Twins," Rodnor said. "They are twins. Twin Elves."
One of the twins—Halbarad certainly did not know who—turned to the boy with a laugh. "Twins, yes. Elves, almost."
Rodnor looked like he was going to be sick. Ivorwen grasped his hand and quickly led him away.
"You will have to excuse him," Halbarad said, his voice low. "His own twin brother died not long ago."
"Ah!" Two clear grey eyes appraised him. "That is a thing not to be borne. We will talk to him of it when he is ready." He held out a hand in formal greeting. "I am Elrohir."
"Halbarad Hallor's son am I, and most pleased to meet you and your brother."
A musical laugh joined a winning smile, and Halbarad wondered where the grim warrior was. "Estel has told us all about you, and now we will find out how much of the truth he has told."
"Yes, we will be companions on the road. Aragorn wishes to go to his father's grave."
A wave of sadness passed over the expressive eyes. "I knew he would wish to do so, eventually. I am glad you will come."
Halbarad shivered to think that this man, who looked no older than he, had known all of his ancestors as far back as Valandil, and had seen generations of the Heirs of Isildur grow to manhood, age and die. Beyond the circles of the world.

I'll wait and get this bundle with the next one
Actual I wanted to, Traume looks really good, how much time left?
The default money split is interesting. Trauma gets nothing (maybe something from the humble tip), Frozen Synapse, Frozenbyte and SpaceChem equal parts (Frozenbyte even when the donation is below average).
After the three "proper" bundles, they seem to be experimenting a bit now. I don't mind it (just pay what it is worth to me), but find it interesting to see what happens in different cases. Even more interesting would be some post-mortems with graphs over time, e.g. how did the amount of buyers change this time after Trauma and SpaceChem were added etc.
I would agree with that. I haven't seen any stats apart from the front page since the first HIB.
i bourght this when it was 1 game but it currently is the first indie bundle where ive not bothered playing any of the games. they dont seem bad its launch just syncs with me getting onlive working satifactorly on wine.
Yeah... it's not all roses. Poor devs... only making 1 million dollars in half a month... what a failure!

Dominant second half lifts Spartans past Tigers Sanford 22-0 run sparks comeback
Thursday, February 7, 2013
SANFORD — Trailing 34-23 at the half, Sanford High School's boys staged a tremendous second half rally that featured an amazing 22-0 run on the way to a 65-50 win over the Biddeford Tigers here Friday night.
The Spartans continued their run into the third quarter. Stanton started things off with a free throw that tied the game 48-48, and Camire moved the Spartans into the lead with four straight from the line to make it 52-48. A put back by Shain was followed by Nolette and Morgan 3-pointers to make it 60-48. Camire finished the 22-point run with a pair of free throws and a layup on a pass from Nolette to make it 64-48.
Nadeau led Biddeford with 18 points.

Tumors need a blood supply in order to grow and spread. The development of these blood vessels is called angiogenesis. One way of controlling cancer is to inhibit angiogenesis.
MEDI3617 is an antibody (a type of protein that is part of the immune system) which binds to proteins involved in angiogenesis called angiopoietin 1 and angiopoietin 2. Laboratory studies suggest that MEDI3617 can inhibit new blood vessel formation in tumors, thereby "starving" the tumor of the nutrients and oxygen it requires to continue to grow.
In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of MEDI3617 that can be given safely in patients with advanced solid tumors that continue to grow despite standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists. This is the "dose-escalation" part of the study. In a second part of the study, MEDI3617 will be evaluated specifically in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer or advanced colorectal cancer that continues to grow despite therapy.
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
For more information about this study and to inquire about eligibility, please contact Dr. David Hyman at 646-888-4226.

36 Great Mexican and Tex-Mex Recipes
Quick Green Chili and Chicken Enchiladas
Chicken tenders, Mexican-style four-cheese blend, green chile peppers and bottled green salsa fill these easy enchiladas. Buy hot or mild chilies to suit your family's taste for heat.
Mexican Chicken Salad
A tiny bit of taco seasoning mix packs big flavor in this south-of-the-border twist on traditional chicken salad. Try it in a tortilla wrap with crisp romaine lettuce.
Mexican Tacos Carnitas
Slow-cook pork shoulder roast and Mexican spices to tender goodness, then serve with corn tortillas. Fresh cilantro, green onion and bottled green salsa add the finishing touches.
Mexican Mac and Cheese
Pair Mexican flavors with pasta for this comfort-food casserole that includes sausage, salsa and Monterey Jack cheese.
Simple Salsa Skillet
For a change in routine, substitute green salsa for red in this easy Mexican-inspired meal.
Shredded Pork Tacos
Root beer and chipotle peppers yield pulled pork that's sweet, spicy, smoky and marvelously tender—perfect for wrapping in a tortilla with cheese and vegetables.
Mexican Sweet Potato-Veggie Medley
Create a meatless main dish in minutes by sauteing sweet potatoes, then adding canned corn and black beans. Top with a chipotle-flavor sour cream, avocado slices and fresh cilantro.
Chicken Enchiladas Adobo
Wrap meat in multigrain tortillas with adobo sauce and fire-roasted tomatoes for a fresh take on chicken enchiladas.
Mexican Cornmeal Pancakes with Black Bean and Pineapple Salsa
Corn and diced ham stud buttermilk pancakes topped with bright fruit salsa. Serve them for a savory brunch or light dinner with a green salad.
Mexican Cornmeal Pancakes with Black Bean and Pineapple Salsa
Tex-Mex Cheesy Chicken Chowder
This easy-to-make dish travels well to potlucks or other gatherings. "It uses a variety of convenience foods that are stirred together in one big pot, and brings out the great flavor of all the ingredients," says recipe developer Nina Swan-Kohler of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Mexican Meatball Stew
This easy slow-cooker meal has just five ingredients, all packaged or canned. Toss it together in minutes in the morning, and come home to a finished meal in the afternoon.
Turkey-Mango Quesadillas
Tuck mango salsa, Gouda cheese, and chopped turkey or chicken into flour tortillas for sweet and smoky quesadillas.
Mexican Seven-Layer Dip
Combine pantry ingredients, such as canned bean dip and taco sauce, for this easy dip. Serve with tortilla chips.
Tilapia Tacos with Chipotle Cream
Either fresh or frozen tilapia works well for these tacos. Just rub the fish with seasonings, and it's ready for the skillet. Serve with a creamy chipotle sauce and a zesty combination of chopped onions, tomatoes and cilantro.
Mexican Winter Chili
Cook pork in a blend of cocoa powder, cumin, cinnamon, pumpkin and poblano pepper for a rich, hearty chili.
Mexican Polenta Pie
Great for a potluck or family dinner, this 12-serving casserole combines polenta with ground turkey, spices, black beans, tomatoes and Monterey Jack cheese.
Five-Way Margarita
Switching a few ingredients in our 10-minute limeade drink creates new options. Go for Original Limeade, So Strawberry, Blue Lagoon, Pomegranate or the nonalcoholic Designated Driver.
Fiesta Tortilla-Shrimp Casserole
Layer wedges of corn tortillas with a mixture of green salsa, sour cream, shrimp and corn for this casserole. Give it a fresh finish with some cilantro, sour cream and chopped tomato.
Nacho Potato Skins
Whip up this easy appetizer and store it in your fridge until it's snack time. To serve the skins hot and crispy, broil them just before serving.
Fall Vegetable Fajitas
Thinly slicing tougher cuts of meat, such as beef chuck eye steak, flank steak and skirt steak, ensures tenderness. Tip: Pop the steak in the freezer for about 20 minutes before slicing—it should be firm but not frozen. Hold a chef's knife at a 45-degree angle to the meat and thinly cut across the grain.
Tortilla-Black Bean Casserole
Layer a tomato-bean mixture, cheese and tortillas for a casserole with south-of-the-border flavor. Let each guest top their portion with chopped tomato, shredded lettuce, green onions, olives and/or sour cream.
24-Hour Tex-Mex Salad
Based on Tex-Mex ingredients, this layered salad can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance. For a fun presentation, assemble individual servings in clear jelly jars, dressing and all, then refrigerate.
Best Salsa
Make this thick and chunky salsa with fresh tomatoes from your garden. Add more jalapeno peppers if you prefer more heat.
Let your family or guests build their own filled tortillas. The recipe comes from Manny's Restaurante Mexicano in Kansas City. Although Manny makes his pico de gallo, chili sauce, refried beans and Mexican rice, you can substitute purchased products.
Mexican Tortilla Casseroles
Combine cubed cooked chicken, corn, Mexican cheese, tortillas and salsa in individual-size baking dishes for this casserole dish, which you can make ahead and freeze.
Mexican Sausage Strata
This lighter version of a classic brunch dish uses ground turkey sausage, skim milk, light sour cream and reduced-fat cheese to cut down on fat and calories. You can make this up to 24 hours ahead and refrigerate until baking.
Aunt Bonnie's Taco Soup
Make this hearty soup on the stove or in a slow cooker. Serve with sour cream, salsa, shredded cheese and tortilla chips for added taco flavors.
Chicken Tacos with Avocado Salsa and Ranch Taco Sauce
Fresh tomatillos and jicama add authentic tartness and crunch to this made-in-minutes dinner. You can find both veggies at large supermarkets or Latin groceries.
Black Bean Salsa
This salsa does double duty as a tortilla dip or a meat topper. Serve with a slotted spoon over grilled pork, smoked bratwursts or sausages, grilled chicken or salmon.
Bonanza Bean Dip
Lime- and jalapeno-spiced guacamole adds a kick to layers of refried beans, cheese, tomatoes and onions. Serve seasoned tortilla chips on the side.
Mexican Biscuit Casserole
This taco-flavored main dish is a potluck favorite from a Fargo, North Dakota, reader. Serve it with tortilla chips so your guests can scoop and eat.
Avocado-Feta Salsa
Fresh herbs, tomatoes and avocados create a refreshing salsa. Serve with pita or tortilla chips.
Ground Beef and Salsa Chili
Ground Beef and Salsa Chili, from The Dakota Diner in Webster, South Dakota, can be on the table in 30 minutes or less. Customize the heat level to your preference by the spiciness of the salsa you use.
Corn-Roasted Walleye
Use corn husks to package your fish fillets in this main dish. Roasting the corn for the salsa intensifies its flavor. Serve with tortilla chips for scooping up any leftover salsa on your plate.
Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies with Dulce De Leche Filling
Sandwich creamy dulce de leche filling between homemade chocolate cookies for a Mexican-inspired dessert treat.
Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies with Dulce De Leche Filling
Mexican Black Bean Pizza
Start this veggie pizza with refrigerated dough, then spread on blended black beans, spices, salsa and garlic. Top with cheese, chopped red sweet pepper and sliced green onion.
Light and Layered Taco Dip
Ground turkey, reduced-sodium and light ingredients, and a confetti of crisp, colorful veggies make this potluck staple more nutritious than a typical layered dip—but every bit as tasty.

Alsaplayer is good, but it has one grave weakness: playlist handling. And the most grave problem there is the lack of "find/search" function!?!

South Berwick woman receives Red Cross award
Thursday, April 25, 2013
SOUTH BERWICK, Maine — Amy Miller, a local writer and activist, has changed one little corner of the world.
The school has electricity, fresh water, new classrooms, books, clothing and toys, all with help from the Rotary Clubs of South Berwick/Eliot, Kittery and York; the Great Works School; Berwick Academy; Marshwood Middle School and Kittery's Mitchell School as well as the local Catholic Church parish.
"We have had many sponsorships to feed the students, but it's getting harder. We try to get the funds together to even just pay the teachers," Miller said, mentioning it costs $110 a month to pay teacher salaries for the school.
Agnes Charlesworth of Kittery, a music teacher and musician Miller knows, has been going down to Haiti almost every year since 2009 to help take pictures of children being sponsored locally and bringing the story back to her community in Kittery. That, said Miller, is key to support from Kittery residents. "Without Agnes, the project would not be where it is today," Miller added.
"And really, I could go on about the many people who have said they wanted to make a difference and this is where their heart took them. Those people have allowed the school to grow and have kept it alive. Anglade's vision, her energy and her love of Haiti and her home is what really makes the school something we all want to be involved in," Miller said.

Blueberry Maple Oatmeal Muffins with Pecan Streusel
I just couldn't let blueberry season go by without making some blueberry muffins! I wanted to try a healthier muffin recipe and a quick search turned up this recipe for blueberry oatmeal muffins. I liked the sound of using the rolled oats in the muffins along with whole wheat flour and a mashed banana and some vanilla yogurt for some extra moisture and flavour. Of course I could not resist replacing some of the sugar with maple syrup. Next, I just had to work in some pecans and I though that a pecan streusel would be a good idea. I had to make one unexpected additional change to the recipe as I was out of vegetable oil and I replaced it with an equal amount of butter. The blueberry muffins turned out great! I don't even want to say how many I ate when they were fresh out of the oven. The muffins were super moist and had a really nice light and yet substantial texture and they full of flavour! The pecan streusel topping worked out surprisingly well. It stuck to the muffins and provided additional texture and flavour to every bite of muffiny goodness. These muffins are going to disappear way too quickly.
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup vanilla yogurt
1 over ripe banana (mashed)
1/4 cup butter (melted)
1 egg
3/4 cup rolled oats
1 cup flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup blueberries
1/4 cup pecans
1/4 cup flour
pinch cinnamon
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoon unsalted butter
1. Mix the brown sugar, maple syrup, yogurt, banana, butter, egg and rolled oats in a bowl and let it sit for 10 minutes.
2. Mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
3. Mix the wet and dry ingredients along with the blueberries until just mixed.
4. Spoon the mixture into a greased muffin pan.
5. Mix the pecans, flour, cinnamon, brown sugar and butter until they form crumbs.
6. Spoon some of the streusel onto the muffins.
7. Bake in a preheated 375F oven for about 20 minutes.

In March 1995, Kuakini Health System adopted the Total Quality Management (TQM) philosophy. This philosophy has customer service as its focus. Since its introduction, the TQM philosophy has been integrated into the daily operations at Kuakini.
Total Quality Management (TQM) is defined as "a way to do business" through people, leadership, values and culture. It is the integration of quality and management concepts, tools and values into the culture and systems of an organization to achieve key business objectives through continuous improvement and total customer satisfaction.
One of the key components of implementing the TQM philosophy is the development of teams. The idea is to empower employees to work together as teams with the goal to improve "the way Kuakini does business.
In the implementation of the TQM philosophy, Kuakini teams use a seven-step problem solving process which is as follows:
• Identify the improvement opportunity
• Summarize the current situation
• Conduct a root cause analysis
• Create and test countermeasures
• Evaluate results
• Standardize the improvement process
• Determine "what's next?"
Kuakini's goal is to involve all employees in the TQM philosophy, either through participation on a team (within departments and between departments) or involvement in other continuous improvement activities.
