Adding on to retaining wall?
margolaneAugust 3, 2014
We recently built a new "old house" on acreage. We have a walk out basement and a couple of 5 ft retaining walls, however, the builder did not extend the wall out far enough to make a decent sized level spot above for a patio.We literally step off our back porch, take a few steps and it becomes a pretty steep incline. My question is: Is it possible to add on to the retaining wall blocks ourselves with smaller blocks in order to fill it with dirt and have a larger level top to pour a patio on? Or do I just have to get a guy out here to add more big retaining wall blocks? A smaller retaining wall will have to be done on two more sides as well to hold the dirt.

The world's sexiest woman is featured in the September issue
By: Ashley Baylen
After beating out hundreds of other girls for the spot, Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli was recently named the 'Hottest Girl in the World' by Maxim magazine.
To celebrate her win, Refaeli appears on the cover of the upcoming September issue of the men's magazine flaunting a black bikini, and dawns even less inside the publication.
In the feature, Refaeli shares what physical attributes she is attracting to in a man.
"Teeth are the first thing I look at," Refaeli begins.
"With today's orthodontists, I don't understand why people wouldn't fix them."
The supermodel also explains that she isn't attracted to men that act "too cool for school."
"If someone is funny, he should say something funny," she explains. "If someone is sweet and gentle, he should talk that way. Just be yourself. Like, the other day, I was at the airport, and there was a cute guy who I saw notice me. But instead of coming up next to me, he put his head down and started texting to appear like, 'Oh, didn't even see you!' I was like, if you really were cool, you'd just be yourself and talk to me."
Apparently though, Refaeli doesn't get asked out much.
"I think part of the reason is that I'm not out much," admits Refaeli. "I'm usually at a photo shoot or getting to sleep early. I don't really have a chance to meet people other than businessmen on planes. They're all married and much older, though."
The supermodel is currently linked to snowboarder, Shaun White.

"Important lessons learned for young ones"
My 9 year old chose this book from her reading list this summer and to my surprise became one of our families favorite. This book teaches some very important lessons about growing up and learning to find ones own identity in a world that when young seems so large and exciting, but when the time comes to step outside ones comfort zone only makes us realize there is no place like home.

This year's RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific) maritime military exercises have ended, and any attention we've given the biennial war games will quickly turn elsewhere. But before we let RIMPAC drop from view, it's worth pausing to consider what we've just witnessed (or not witnessed, since most of the RIMPAC takes place out of sight).
Conditions are rife for a global revolution, with channels to drive one ever strengthening. All that's missing is a charismatic leader to pull the strings. History imparts that person will arrive. Pray for goodness because it could be evil.
Inquisitions to current day intolerant extremists, life and resources are wasted with perverted extravagance. Difference and deviance have become the most frequently employed rationale to persecute, punish and kill.

China's continuous rise and China's active strategic engagement with South Korea are increasingly challenging the basis of the U.S.-Japan-South Korea cooperative triangle in Northeast Asia.

Has the United States sent its Special Forces or drones into or over the territory of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea? Or, worse, has the United States prohibited Dennis Rodman from celebrating any more of Kim Jong-Un's birthdays in North Korea? No, "it" is much worse than that.
A new controversy at the Department of Defense has raised troubling questions about competency, perhaps even national security.
North Korea never fails to offer up interesting and telling examples of how ideology functions. One such example can be found in their claim that homosexuality doesn't actually exist there.
As Secretary of State, she visited 112 countries, and travelled one million miles. The book will appeal to Clinton supporters, and her many critics will harshly trash it.
Today, Asia once again faces a historical challenge. It is standing at the crossroads between progress and retrogression. Why and how have we come this far? Partly, this is accounted for by the new and divergent outlook for the regional order -- a rising China, a resurgent Japan, strong Russia, anachronistic North Korea obsessed with the pursuit of nuclear weapons, and the United States who is rebalancing to Asia. It looks like the "Pandora's Box" is being opened, with all sorts of problems -- both old and new -- popping up, complicating the already very complex situation. Any of these developments, if mishandled or left unchecked, could escalate into a much more serious situation with far reaching consequences for the region.
May is AAPI (Asian-American and Pacific Islander) Heritage month. During this month, we need to remember the case of Kenneth Bae. We need to make a moral appeal for his release and put the spotlight back on his case.

It's time for Pastor's, Priests and leadership everywhere to stand up and do what they should be doing, lead their congregations on the issue of LIFE.
For too long the Church has been silent. Church leadership needs to be visible and rally people to end abortion and human killing research.
There are many top Christian and pro-life leaders in this video speaking out in defense of the unborn. Will you become a Christian leader for life?
If your church is against abortion yet does nothing to publicly call for an end to it, then show them this video or request a DVD by going to cherishlife.us.

The former lovers, who raised eyebrows with their high-profile lesbian relationship which lasted from 1997 until 2000, haven't spoken since their turbulent break-up.
The actress and chat show host were attending the GQ Celebrity Poker for Peace Games when Heche, who was with her husband Coley Laffoon, approached DeGeneres and her girlfriend Portia De Rossi.
A source tells Us Weekly, "Ellen's face was bright red.
"The group talked, catching up and chatting and sort of seeing where each other was at in their lives. After that they went their separate ways and didn't have much to do with each other. They were concentrating more on their poker games."

Wanted:Malabar Spinach and Cluster Bean Seeds
I am new to gardenweb and I am looking for Malabar spinach and Cluster bean(gawar) seeds. I can't find it at the local garden stores or Asian supermarkets. I don't have a lot for trade but I do have 4 different varieties of tomato seeds and 3 different kinds of peppers. If anyone has these seeds and are willing to trade please e-mail me.
Evergreen Seeds sells both gwar and malabar spinach. See the link below.
Good luck,
Here is a link that might be useful: Evergreen Seeds
Hi, I have them. I sent most of my seeds to someone in California, but I could send you a few from the ones I kept. I think one of my plants is going to seed too, but I'm not sure how it works with these plants. This was my first year with them. I hope I will eventually get seeds from the plant. I am also rooting some cuttings to grow from this coming year.
The type I have is the alba type with green stems.
I would be happy to get tomato or pepper seeds. If I get tomato, it should be a smaller type because it gets so hot here in the summer, I can't grow the large ones.
I haven't done a trade on here before so I'm not sure how it works. I also have a Ferry Morse edamame to trade if anyone is interested in that.
I want a few seeds to experiment planting and see if it grows in my backyard, mainly and solely for cooking as a vegetable for dinner. I do not need many, but just a few seeds may be 8-10. If anyone can share, I will appreciated it very much. i live in California's dry, hot, arid (not humid) area. I like to try and see if it grows here!

Now that we're deep into spring and the weather has changed, hopping on your bicycle probably is looking more and more tempting — just in time for national Bike Month.
Bike Month is, as the name implies, recognized throughout May. But it kicks into gear today with the start of Bike to Work Week and hits its zenith Friday with Bike to Work Day. Megan Cahill, spokeswoman for the League of American Bicyclists, says "Every month is Bike Month," but you'd expect her to say that.
For much of a sunny blue Saturday, a swath of downtown San Jose was all about the bike — and about the skateboard, the foot and other nonmotorized forms of transportation. There were families on recumbent bikes tugging kids and dogs in trailers behind them; a group of Mormon missionaries in pressed white shirts riding bikes with bright green, blue and orange rims; and daily bike commuters proudly astride their dusty workhorses.
San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom's famous hair was tucked away under a baseball cap and City Attorney Dennis Herrera sported shorts as city officials joined bike advocates Thursday morning to celebrate Bike to Work Day. At a news conference outside City Hall, the mayor said commuting by bicycle breeds a sense of community that is lost on those in cars. "The one thing that biking does more than anything else is it connects you to other people," Newsom said. "You don't get connected when you're in two SUVs." Newsom was dressed casually, trading in his sleek business suit and even sleeker hairdo for a plain blue long-sleeve shirt and a Giants baseball cap.
Bay Area commuters are being encouraged to trade four wheels in for two as part of Bike to Work Day on Thursday, with events scheduled throughout the region to celebrate the benefits of commuting by bicycle.
Hundreds of thousands of Bay Area bicyclists are expected to participate Thursday, according to Andrew Casteel, executive director of the Bay Area Bicycle Coalition, which is helping to organize events regionwide

bancoideas's curator insight, April 24, 2013 8:04 AM
Una adecuada intervención de los espacios cotidianos, transforma las emociones y sugiere recuerdos a quienes los habitan. ¿que tal este ejemplo?
Delmai George's curator insight, May 5, 2013 2:31 AM
While I have included computer games to stimulate design ideas, this article takes a different approach. There are detailed instructions on gamifying the classroom, using experience points' hit points and leveling up to facilitate better classroom cooperation and collaboration. The ideas presented were developed in conjunction with students to improve teaching and learning. The classroom is a system that can benefit from the study of systems thinkingand design principles within the Australian Curriculum: Technologies.

Community Meetups during Strata + Hadoop World 2014
The meetup opportunities during the conference week are more expansive than ever — spanning Impala, Spark, HBase, Kafka, and more.
Strata + Hadoop World 2014 is a kaleidoscope of experiences for attendees, and those experiences aren't contained within the conference center's walls. For example, the meetups that occur during the conf week (which is concurrent with NYC DataWeek) are a virtual track for developers — and with Strata + Hadoop World being bigger than ever, so is the scope of that track.
Getting Started with Big Data Architecture
What does a "Big Data engineer" do, and what does "Big Data architecture" look like? In this post, you'll get answers to both questions.
Apache Hadoop has come a long way in its relatively short lifespan. From its beginnings as a reliable storage pool with integrated batch processing using the scalable, parallelizable (though inherently sequential) MapReduce framework, we have witnessed the recent additions of real-time (interactive) components like Impala for interactive SQL queries and integration with Apache Solr as a search engine for free-form text exploration.
What's Next for Impala: Focus on Advanced SQL Functionality
- by Justin Erickson & Marcel Kornacker
- August 26, 2014
- 5 comments
Impala 2.0 will add much more complete SQL functionality to what is already the fastest SQL-on-Hadoop solution available.
In September 2013, we provided a roadmap for Impala — the open source MPP SQL query engine for Apache Hadoop, which was on release 1.1 at the time — that documented planned functionality through release 2.0 and beyond.
Big Data Benchmarks: Toward Real-Life Use Cases
The Transaction Processing Council (TPC), working with Cloudera, recently announced the new TPCx-HS benchmark, a good first step toward providing a Big Data benchmark.
In this interview by Roberto Zicari with Francois Raab, the original author of the TPC-C Benchmark, and Yanpei Chen, a Performance Engineer at Cloudera, the interviewees share their thoughts on the next step for benchmarks that reflect real-world use cases.
Apache Hadoop 2.5.0 is Released
- by Karthik Kambatla
- August 15, 2014
- no comments
The Apache Hadoop community has voted to release Apache Hadoop 2.5.0.
Apache Hadoop 2.5.0 is a minor release in the 2.x release line and includes some major features and improvements, including:
New in CDH 5.1: HDFS Read Caching
- by Colin McCabe and Andrew Wang
- August 11, 2014
- 6 comments
Applications using HDFS, such as Impala, will be able to read data up to 59x faster thanks to this new feature.
Server memory capacity and bandwidth have increased dramatically over the last few years. Beefier servers make in-memory computation quite attractive, since a lot of interesting data sets can fit into cluster memory, and memory is orders of magnitude faster than disk.
Progress Report: Cloudera Community Forums After One Year
Cloudera Community forums are proving their value as an important contributor to a rich user experience.
It's been almost exactly one year since the debut of the Cloudera Community forums. In addition to doing the birthday shout-out, I thought it would be interesting to bring you up to date about adoption and usage patterns.
New in Cloudera Manager 5.1: Direct Active Directory Integration for Kerberos Authentication
- by Vikram Srivastava
- July 25, 2014
- 8 comments
With this new release, setting up a separate MIT KDC for cluster authentication services is no longer necessary.
Kerberos (initially developed by MIT in the 1980s) has been adopted by every major component of the Apache Hadoop ecosystem. Consequently, Kerberos has become an integral part of the security infrastructure for the enterprise data hub (EDH).
Cloudera Enterprise 5.1 is Now Available
Cloudera Enterprise's newest release contains important new security and performance features, and offers support for the latest innovations in the open source platform.
We're pleased to announce the release of Cloudera Enterprise 5.1 (comprising CDH 5.1, Cloudera Manager 5.1, and Cloudera Navigator 2.0).
Jay Kreps, Apache Kafka Architect, Visits Cloudera
It was good to see Jay Kreps (@jaykreps), the LinkedIn engineer who is the tech lead for that company's online data infrastructure, visit Cloudera Engineering yesterday to spread the good word about Apache Kafka.
Kafka, of course, was originally developed inside LinkedIn and entered the Apache Incubator in 2011. Today, it is being widely adopted as a pub/sub framework that works at massive scale (and which is commonly used to write to Apache Hadoop clusters, and even data warehouses).

A Texas organization that has investigated financial fraud in the American religious community is in the process of expanding their efforts globally.
The Dallas-based Trinity Foundation recently announced their plans to investigate religious fraud on a global scale following the release of research earlier this year indicating that religious fraud globally may total $100 billion in the next decade.
In a recently released statement, the Trinity Foundation noted that for 2015 alone it's estimated that international religious fraud will exceed donations to global missions. more >>
A mammoth hot air balloon featuring the painting of a smiling Jesus will ascend to the skies of western New York during the Easter season.
Named "RISEN!", the hot air balloon will be 80-feet-tall and have a volume of 105,000 cubic feet, being constructed from more than 2,000 square yards of fabric.
Sky Sail Balloons, Inc., an Ashville, New York-based hot air balloon company, will create the RISEN!, with its maiden voyage slated for this Easter season. more >>
LOS ANGELES – Together L.A., a three day conference featuring close to 50 speakers primarily discussing how churches and ministries can effectively collaborate to show the love of Christ to the city, concluded with best-selling author and pastor Tim Keller speaking about individual identity before 2,000 people in attendance last Saturday.
"Christianity doesn't just give you a new identity it gives you a radical way of forming an identity," said Keller, pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan, New York. "It gives you a unique, liberating and infinitely better identity than the one the culture is imposing on you right now."
Throughout the conference, Keller and other speakers discussed practical steps and gave examples of how the Christian community is tackling hard social issues. However, Keller's closing message was more about how Christians walking in faith can overcome skewed expectations from society. more >>
National Harbor, Md. — Members of a panel on anti-abortion activism at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday afternoon believe that the current trend of political successes for the pro-life movement may influence the Democrat Party.
"Abortion-centered feminism is dead. I really believe that's true. Now it certainly could crawl back in the crevices of new elections and new conversations and new legislative battles," said Marjorie Dannenfelser of Susan B. Anthony List.
"If we stay on the track we're on, we will continue into the next election against Hillary Clinton potentially, with a very strong, emboldened pro-life, pro-woman course, only not just Republicans but in the Hispanic community and among Democrats," she predicted. more >>
A church in Washington state is converting a former strip club into an evangelistic facility that's serving the community seven days a week.
Bethany Community Church, a Seattle-based multi-site congregation founded in 1900, acquired the former strip club called "Sugars" and has turned it into a site for missions.
The strip club was located in the city of Shoreline, which is north of Seattle. The facility will serve as part of Bethany Community Church North. more >>
A South Carolina judge has denied a motion to reconsider a ruling made in a $500 million property dispute case in favor of a diocese that voted to leave the Episcopal Church due to the national denomination's increasing acceptance of homosexuality.
Judge Diane Goodstein decided earlier this week to reject arguments made by The Episcopal Church requesting that she reconsider her order granting the Diocese of South Carolina ownership over the name and $500 million worth of diocesan church properties.
"The court has studied defendant's lengthy motion extensively and oral argument would not be of assistance to the court," ruled Goodstein on Monday. more >>

In Amsterdam, in the summer of 1942, the Nazis forced teenager Anne Frank and her family into hiding. For over two years, they, another family and a German dentist lived in a 'secret annexe', fearing discovery. All that time, Anne kept a diary.
An intimate record of tension and struggle, adolescence and confinement, anger and heartbreak, Anne Frank's diary is one of those unique documents, famed throughout the world.
It portrays innocence and humanity, suffering and survival in the starkest and most moving terms.
©2011 Anne Frank Foundation (P)2011 Penguin Books Ltd
"A modern classic . . . Anne's diary tells a story that is true, memorable, important and strongly personalized . . . compelling reading." (The Times)
"Anne Frank's diary is one of the greatest books of the century ... As she brings herself and her circumstances into such buzzing, engaged life on the page, she triumphs over her history." (Guardian)
"Still rings down the decades as the most moving testament to the persecution of innocence." (Daily Mail)
This book is well written and an excellent choice. Helena B C is a superb narrator and the story is thoroughly engaging. It is captivating from start to finish. I won't say anymore as some people may not be familiar with the story, although that is unlikely. Definitely choose this book.
"Tissues at the ready..."
This is a beautifully narrated version of this increadibly moving diary.
An insight into the thoughts and emothions of a young girl, growing and discovering herself, with the constant fears of life around her. In her well written diary, you'll become familier with all the members of her family, and the people she was forced to live locked up in a few small rooms with. Be prepared to listen to the heart-wrenching sadness, of what happens to each and every one of them.
Helena Bonham Carter does a fantastic job of narrating this powerful sombre, and thought provoking diary, written by a young girl, who wrote this book for no-one but herself, yet sends a story worldwide.
"Heart breaking"
This is well read and leaves a sense of loss at the end. It reads like a novel and I wish it was.
"Fantastically narrated."
This is a brilliant book of a horrific time. Ann Frank will live on in our hearts.
This is a must read.
Having been to Amsterdam recently i was enlightened to the subject also explained to me in detail by my wife.So i bought the book to throw more light on the subject.
Fact or Fiction you decide
It does seem strange that these were the only ones who tried this and nearly all got away with it.I also believe that it could of been written by her father not anne.
"Powerful and emotional"
Emotional, such a bright bubbly girl. such a shame she can not see how this book has effected so many people including myself. Helena Bonham Carter I think was the perfect voice to match Anne's personality. Although written so long ago, tonight my thoughts are with Anne, her family and all mentioned in this book.
"Epic document. Epic performance"
I have read some things around this document that I have found revolting. Suggestions that it was a fiction created by Anne's father to make profit - that some sort of scheming Jewish fakery was at hand. I have even read holocaust deniers citing this account to be part of a grand Zionist conspiracy to re-write the war to the benefit of the Jewish people.
When you listen to the narrative performance - which is wonderful (and I wish that all narrative performances on Audible were as sublime) - you will be moved. This is a book that everyone should know and a tragedy that should be taught to all.
**Spoiler Alert**
It is so cruel that Anne Frank, her family and her friends did not make it - just so much further - to survive. That she was loaded onto one of the final - if not the final - cattle train to certain death - is heart breaking. You find yourself staring back through the mists of time, helplessly screaming at the injustice.
You cannot fail to be moved.
"poor reading "
I have kept the same volume for all my books and I have heard them well but helena Bonham carter couldn't hear her very well
"An excellent version"
Not the first time I've experienced this book by a long way and probably won't be the last. I really enjoyed this edition. Well narrated and interesting foreword explaining the editions. Excellent.
"A powerful book"
There were a few times in this book that I thought it was getting boring, nothing happening, just a dreary story of a monotonous and uneventful life during the war. But sadly this isn't fiction, it's one of many horrible true stories of a time in our history that illustrated man's inhumanity. Having visited THE house in Amsterdam and the Auscwich death camp in Poland, there were many parts of this book that sent shivers through me. Even knowing the outcome of the story in real life, it is difficult not to continually wish that they wouldn't be found, wouldn't be caught and would survive the war. To think that Anne succumbed to illness just a few days before the end of the war makes this story even more tragic.
A sad, compelling and powerful book.
"I am glad I bought this one, the unedited version"
Having read the first version as a child this book had a lasting impact on me and shaped my life to work in human rights. I am so glad I bought this and listened to it. This version makes Anne seem even more real. You love her all the more for her naivety and teenage insights. RIP Anne, if I prayed at all it would be for souls like yours.
"Delightful and charmingly frank."
Not at all what I had expected, more a diary of a talent person forming under extraordinary circumstances than a narration on living through the fears and isolation of the circumstances themselves. If you have ever entertained a diary yourself you will relate to the extremely candid and self exploratory nature of this, the ever changing self, outbursts, self derision, externalisation, self re-evaluation and growth. Having a teenage daughter myself only made the inevitable conclusion all the more visceral. It is not a book but more a rite of passage.
Is a amazing story, and the narrator is perfectly suited for this read.
Nothing, its about something historical but written in such a fresh perspective. There are many books about the holocaust but non written in this way.
I loved the narrating, her voice suited the character and she infused it with emotions in a appropriate way. Her 'acting' was natural and not over the top.
It made me sad to realise again how many brilliant people died in the holocaust because of one man's insanity.
"Now I understand why this is a must-read"
I could experience what Anna must have felt and get a better picture of the girl with tragic, well-known history.
Anna of course.
It got me very quiet and I listened to it with little pauses in between!

Fat Cow: Gordon Ramsay's New Grove Restaurant
Wednesday, November 21, 2012 | 2 years ago
Tucked into a sliver of real estate next to the movie theater at the Grove (yes, it's in a mall -- we'll consider that in a bit), the room's long, swanky, barn-themed decor is awfully cute. A mixture of rustic and playful Etsy-like cow art adorns the walls, along with burnished mirrors. Semicircular red booths line the room, with long, farmhouse communal tables in the center. It's smaller than you might imagine, giving it the feel of a neighborhood joint rather than a mall restaurant. Read the full review.

|Use of Atorvastatin as Adjuvant Therapy Among Suboptimal Responders to Antiretroviral Therapy in an African Cohort of HAART-treated Adults: A Randomised Controlled Trial
|Brief Summary
We hypothesise that atorvastatin changes immune activation among HAART-treated adults with suboptimal CD4 recovery by 25%
|Detailed Description
The investigators have previously shown that up to 40% of HAART-treated adults have suboptimal CD4 recovery despite viral suppression. The investigators have also shown that immune activation and exhaustion are significantly higher among patients that do not exhibit satisfactory rise in CD4 counts despite viral suppression (suboptimal responders); when compared with their counterparts with viral suppression and satifactory CD4 count recovery (optimal responders). Given that atorvastatin changes immune activation in this pilot study, then larger studies can be done to understand its effect on CD4 count increase among suboptimal responders.

Immunogenicity and safety of a booster dose of an MF59-adjuvanted H5N1 vaccine containing 7.5 ?g
A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like (clade 2.2) H5N1 hemagglutinin, given approximately 18 months after primary
vaccination with a heterologous strain, were evaluated. The booster vaccine was well tolerated and induced a
robust, cross-reactive immune response.
Immunization against pandemic virus strains, such as H5N1,
is a keystone of pandemic preparedness plans (5, 7, 12). In
addition, due to the need to rapidly produce many doses,
vaccine hemagglutinin (HA) content may be a limiting factor,
which may be countered by the inclusion of an adjuvant, such
as MF59. Considering the unpredictable emergence and rapid
spread of pandemic influenza together with the time needed to
produce and distribute a pandemic influenza vaccine, proactive
prepandemic vaccination presents a valuable opportunity to
reduce the impact of pandemic influenza disease. In addition
to having an excellent safety profile, a prepandemic vaccine
should offer broad, robust immunity that can be easily boosted
with a flexible dosing schedule (5).
(This work was presented in part at Influenza Vaccines for
the World [IVW 2009], 27 to 30 April 2009, Cannes, France.)
An H5N1 vaccine containing the MF59 adjuvant (Aflunov;
Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics) was developed and admin-
istered to healthy volunteers in a clinical trial setting. The
present study was an extension of a trial (NCT00311480) in
which 486 subjects over 18 years of age received two primary
doses of the MF59-adjuvanted H5N1 vaccine, formulated with
7.5 ?g or 15 ?g HA per dose of the A/Vietnam/1194/2004
(clade 1), at an interval of 3 weeks; a subset of 223 subjects
received a homologous booster dose at 6 months (2). Those
who did not receive the booster dose at 6 months were eligible
for inclusion in this extension study (NCT 00561184), which
evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of one 0.5-ml dose of
MF59-adjuvanted H5N1 vaccine, containing 7.5 ?g of HA
from the A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like strain (clade 2), approx-
imately 18 months after primary vaccination. The inclusion and
exclusion criteria and laboratory and safety surveillance meth-
ods used in this extension study were similar to those of the
initial study (2). There was no statistical null hypothesis for the
immunogenicity assessments, which were based on European
Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP)
criteria (4), and the calculations of all statistical parameters
and confidence intervals are descriptive.
Following completion of the primary vaccination course in
the initial study using the MF59-adjuvanted H5N1 vaccine
formulated with A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (clade 1), all CHMP
criteria were met (2). Following the primary course, hemag-
glutination inhibition (HI) antibody for the priming strain,
A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (clade 1), declined to low levels by the
time of the booster dose (Table 1). Antibody levels increased
1 week following the booster vaccination for both the booster
(A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like [clade 2.2]) and heterologous
priming (A/Vietnam/1194/2004 [clade 1]) strains and remained
high 3 weeks postbooster (Table 1). The CHMP criterion for
the seroprotection rate by HI was met 3 weeks following the
booster vaccination for the A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like (clade
2.2) and A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (clade 1) strains in elderly sub-
jects and for the A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (clade 1) strain in non-
elderly subjects. The seroprotection rates 3 weeks after booster
vaccination were comparable to those reached after comple-
tion of the primary vaccination course (2). The CHMP crite-
rion for the seroconversion rate by HI was met for both strains
1 week after the booster dose in the nonelderly subjects. Sero-
conversion rate criteria were met for both strains for elderly
and nonelderly subjects 3 weeks after the booster dose. Immu-
nogenicity, when measured using the SRH and MN assays,
showed similar trends (data not shown). Overall, the results
from this study compare favorably with those in other clinical

trials, with similar immune responses after primary vaccination
and booster doses (6, 9). These results suggest that subjects
were effectively primed, which facilitated a rapid immune re-
sponse to the heterologous A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like (clade
2.2) strain after a single dose.
The incidence of solicited reactions reported within 7 days of
booster administration was 72% (22/29) in nonelderly subjects
and 39% (7/18) in elderly subjects. The most frequently re-
ported local reactions for all subjects were pain and induration
(Fig. 1). The most frequently reported solicited systemic reac-
tions were myalgia and headache for nonelderly subjects and
myalgia and fatigue for elderly subjects (Fig. 1). No subject
reported fever. All reactions were transient (?2 days) and
were considered mild to moderate in intensity. No unsolicited
AEs and SAEs were considered to be vaccine related. The
incidence of AEs compares favorably with the results from the
initial study (2). Overall, the safety assessments confirmed that
the A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005-like (clade 2.2) booster was well
tolerated when administered after primary vaccination with
A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (clade 1), supporting the safety profile
of MF59-adjuvanted vaccines (8, 10).
Several studies have demonstrated that the inclusion of
MF59 in a seasonal or pandemic influenza vaccine increases
both the homologous and heterologous immune responses (1,
3, 9–11) even at low antigen doses. The findings from this
extension study provide further support for both the immuno-
potentiating capabilities of MF59 and the potential for adop-
tion of antigen-sparing strategies in a prepandemic context.
This study further illustrates how prepandemic vaccination
may prime a population, providing initial protection against an
influenza pandemic that can be boosted with a different strain.
This prime-boost strategy is likely to be the most effective way
to protect populations against future influenza pandemics.

Grigorenko was a top 3 prospect virtually all season and fell at the end due to mono and stupid myths (age myth and Russian flight factor myth). Teams who take big chances are ones who win the cup. We need a big center next season, Grigorenko is 6'3 and still may grow a little.
I don't think Grigorenko is the type who will get "ruined" if he plays as an 18 year old. I just think he is far too talented to not make the team, there are NOT 12 forwards better then him in the system. I don't want a Matt Ellis taking away minutes from Grigorenko. We are better off having him up with us then having him play in juniors, he already had a dominant season and has proven he can tear up the Q, let him play with the big club and have him learn from a Vanek or Pominville.
I guess we will see how he performs in the camps, I just do not hope it is a situation where no matter how he does in camp that he is going to be sent back down no matter what to aid his "development". At the very least he needs to get the 9 game tryout, there is no reason to not give him that at least.
You literally said everything I wanted to say. He seriously is too good for the Q what is it that you guys want to do while he is there? Get stronger ya that's certainly possible but when you are that dominate you don't progress at the rate you could when you are playing with inferior competition.

AMBER Anderson had placed her daughter's name on the waiting list of 45 city daycare centres through the province's online registry, but as her maternity leave was coming to an end last year she still hadn't found a spot.
"That's when I was getting panicked," said the Island Lakes teacher, who had promised her school division she would return to work in April.
Anderson put the word out to parent groups and employed social media in a desperate bid to find child care. Finally, she found a spot for daughter Jocelyn, now two, by responding to an ad on Kijiji.
Anderson said Tuesday her experience leads her to question the value of the online registry. While the province claims it's helped more than 4,000 kids get placed in daycare, she said she knows of no parents who have used it successfully.
"As a new parent at the time when it came out, it seemed like this would be one-stop shopping," Anderson said. "And you were going to have plenty of options and I was going to have time to select carefully where I wanted my daughter to go. That is not what happened."
Anderson, who will give birth to a second child in the next two weeks, said she will keep Jocelyn in daycare while she's on maternity leave just to protect the spot.
The Selinger government announced the online registry in June 2011. The service cost $1.6 million to launch, and $150,000 was budgeted for annual operating costs.
Pat Wege, executive director of the Manitoba Child Care Association, said the problem is not so much with the online service, as it is the huge shortage of child-care spaces.
While the government has added thousands of new spaces in recent years, it's not been nearly enough to meet demand.
"It's hard for parents," she said.
Complicating matters is that when the online registry was created, it was logistically impossible to input all existing waiting lists kept on paper by individual daycare centres. Out of fairness to parents, many centres kept whittling away at the paper list first before accepting clients who had registered online. Some of these centres had 400 to 500 names on a waiting list.
As of the end of December, there were 9,759 children registered on the government site. Of those 5,884 needed a spot within three months. "Most of those kids are not going to get into the system," Wege said.
Progressive Conservative Family Services critic Leanne Rowat said it appears implementation of the online registry has created more confusion for parents than answers to their needs. "I feel extremely sorry for the families who have been led down a garden path," she said.
Family Services Minister Jennifer Howard said the government is on track this year to complete a commitment to fund 6,500 new child-care spaces within five years. It promised during the last provincial election to fund 2,000 more.
The online registry is working, having placed more than 4,000 kids, she said. Some 88 per cent of city daycares are using it, she added.
"It's like with any tool. It's not going to be perfect. It's not going to work for all families. And we can always do better," Howard said.
The minister said her department could perhaps be clearer on the website that it cannot guarantee when parents sign up they're "going to find a spot immediately or as soon as you would like."
Anderson said what she and other parents have found is it is far easier for child-care centres -- particularly smaller ones -- to bypass the registry in filling spots. They will accept new kids through word-of-mouth or through social media because they lack the personnel, especially during the day, to call parents on a waiting list.
Ironically, Anderson said, the woman operating the home-based licensed daycare who placed the ad on Kijiji was one of the operators she had selected through the provincial online registry.
"We were on her list from the provincial registry. I was third on her list and she had actually called the first two people and they had already found someone (a day care).
"But she found it was just easier to place an ad on Kijiji or use social media and have people contact her because she's just one person."
