After five or ten minutes she sat up in the dark. It didn't go away. Can I tell you about it? Tears fell down her face as fast as words fell out, and she blurted out a vivid tale that left her alone and permanently apart from us. She knew she'd never see us again and in her sleep she shook with fear until she woke herself with her trembling. Only with an eternity of darkness shushing and promises of her safety and my proximity did she finally fall back to sleep. It took her an hour this morning to awaken past her tremulous memories of the dream, and she stayed extra close by my side.
This evening we got an email message that the father of one of her classmates died yesterday. We don't know any details, only that the little girl's birthday party, which was scheduled for tomorrow morning, is cancelled. I keep thinking about that little girl, her father gone forever and the idea of birthdays probably forever ruined.
And I keep thinking about my girl, to whom I have to tell this story tomorrow, and to whom I spent a midnight hour promising I'd never disappear.

Great working with Blue Nile customer service to find a diamond that was available and able to make it to my house in time for a gift. Thanks so much
This ring exceeded my expectations! Absolutely gorgeous!!! The purchase process was above and beyond any I've ever experienced. Picking out a diamond with every one of you diamond experts was an absolute pleasure; they were knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and never in a hurry to get off the phone. I would never have made a purchase this large on line if I hadn't heard so many rave reviews from others, and now I know they were absolutely right and I would re om end you guys to anyone!
ANDREY, APOLLO BEACH FL 02-Apr-2014
This bracelet is magnificent -- high quality diamonds of exceptional color set in a premium grade platinum setting. The price was very fair vs. local jewelers in my area, although none had a 10 caret tennis bracelet in stock when I went to price compare and no local jeweler carried the diamond quality I was seeking in such a bracelet which made price comparison understandably difficult. Bottomline: I trust Blue Nile and know, first-hand, with other former Blue Nile diamond purchases that local jewelers cannot beat Blue Nile prices because jewelers have confided that to me on previous occasions when I wanted to buy from my local jewelers instead. I firmly believe Blue Nile prices can't be beat, and they stand behind their diamond gradings -- honest and ethical. I have not been "burned", and I fully expect to make future purchases through Blue Nile even though I could easily go into NYC's diamond district instead.
Denise, Holmdel NJ 25-Mar-2014
He wanted a ring that isn't not too flashy but somewhat unique. He also wanted it to be a strong metal that didn't easily scratch and wasn't too expensive. I was worried that the ring might look inexpensive, but I was wrong. We both love this ring and it fit all his requirements. We also bought my engagement ring on Blue Nile and both rings and the service both times were fantastic! Also you get a 10% discount on wedding bands if you purchased the engagement ring through Blue Nile.

I notice that the tags on Amazon feature a new addition to the English language -- the new verb "to spore", as in "prepare to be spored". There it appears to mean "to have your reputation shredded by customers infuriated at your shitty treatment of them". Personally I feel it also needs to have a transitive sense, viz. "to cheat your customers by treating them as pieces of shit who don't deserve to get anything for their money".
"I got spored" - said after buying one of EA game's heavy DRMed games.

To be bitterly disappointed after a very long, exciting and anxious wait.

UK lifesavers analyse their rescues in 2010 By Sail-World Cruising, 10:40 AM Tue 1 Feb 2011 In the UK last year, just under 20% of all Royal National Lifeboat Insititution (RNLI) lifeboat launches were to sailing vessels. Another 33% were to motor boats and manual boats, and the rest, a whopping 47% of the rescues, did not involve a boat of any sort. Analysing these numbers, the RNLI is calling on boaters and watersports enthusiasts to stay safe and wear a lifejacket in 2011. ...[more] Brickbats to the rude crew of a Beneteau 37 in Pittwater By Nancy Knudsen, , 7:30 AM Tue 25 Jan 2011 A hundred brickbats to the eight (or so) crew on board the Beneteau 37 which departed in a rush without a thank you or providing any details after an incident near Lobster Beach in Pittwater over the weekend. ...[more] Suddenly Alone: A vital seminar for YOUR sailing club By Nancy Knudsen, 11:09 AM Sun 23 Jan 2011 As a sailing writer I am constantly saddened by the too-frequent tragic outcomes when couples set out on a sailing journey without both people knowing the basics of how to handle the boat. Almost every month somewhere in the world I learn of a man overboard situation where the crew member left on board, most often female, does not know how to turn the boat or contact authorities ...[more] Marine Safety Queensland chief urges caution to sailors in Moreton Bay By Maritime Safety Queensland, , 4:12 PM Thu 20 Jan 2011 The Chief of Maritime Safety Queensland is urging sailors wishing to enter or transit Moreton Bay, to where Brisbane's floods have carried large amounts of debris, to observe extreme caution. ...[more] MBE for rescuer after 44 years in the RNLI By Des Ryan, 9:34 AM Wed 5 Jan 2011 Whether racing or cruising, in times of trouble the safety of the leisure sailor is often in the hands of a volunteer who is willing to risk his or her own personal safety perform a rescue. It is therefore gladdening to see notable volunteers recognised for the work that they do. Charlie Tulloch, from Kinghorn Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) is one such. ...[more] The amazing rescues of 2010 By Nancy Knudsen, , 9:51 AM Sun 2 Jan 2011 None were racing. Some were families, some solo sailors, some were professionals and others novices. Some were rescued from the Southern Ocean in freezing temperatures, some had hit submerged objects and their vessels sank under them, others lost way and were rescued from rocks, some were rescued with significant danger to the rescuer. ...[more] Coast Guard - the often unacknowledged force behind every sailor By Des Ryan, 9:29 AM Thu 30 Dec 2010 The unseen force operating behind almost every yacht that goes to sea is the Coast Guard. You may never sight coast guard officers, but you know they're simply a radio call away. So it's great to hear them being acknowledged, their heroic acts, money raising activities for volunteers, or, as the California Yacht Club has done, when they are invited to speak and talk about the services ...[more] Volunteer rescue services - on the job while the rest of us holiday By Ron Cole/Sail-World Cruising, , 9:09 AM Thu 30 Dec 2010 While there are no rescues of sailing boats in this story, the newly amalgamated Volunteer Marine Rescue NSW has been 'on the job' providing vital services so that others can enjoy their holidays on the water with peace of mind. ...[more] Miracle rescue for ship-wrecked sailors off south coast of New Zealand By Ellie Constantine, Otago Daily Times, 10:08 AM Sun 26 Dec 2010 As Jinney Neale clung barefoot to rocks with a 5m swell lashing around her, Te Anau search and rescue member Stewart Burnby feared she would die. Ms Neale and her partner, Daryl Hewer, had been attempting to sail from Dunedin on the east coast of the south island of New Zealand to Jackson Bay on the west this week but abandoned their boat in rough weather off Fiordland on the southern coast ...[more] Florida sailors: rough seas warning and safety tips By U.S. Coast Guard, , 9:46 AM Tue 14 Dec 2010 The U.S. Coast Guard is urging mariners to exercise extreme caution due to high winds and dangerous waters currently affecting the west coast of Florida, with large swells and breaking waves of 10-15 feet or larger expected through Tuesday. See the five tips for boating safety ...[more] UK's volunteers ready to miss Christmas to save lives By Pamela Saunders, , 9:27 AM Tue 14 Dec 2010 Regardless of gale force winds, rough seas, icy conditions or turkey-laden plates, the UK's Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) volunteer crews will be ready to leave family and festivities behind to rescue those in danger in the seas around Britain this Christmas. ...[more] Falmouth coordinates rescue of yacht after fishing boat collision By Fred Caygill/Sail-World Cruising, , 8:37 AM Fri 10 Dec 2010 The danger of fishing boats to yachts was underlined last week when a cruising yacht was dismasted and holed in the Atlantic Ocean some 400 miles west of Cape Verde by a collision with a fishing boat. ...[more] Home-built schooner Raw Faith founders, crew rescued again By Des Ryan., 2:52 PM Wed 8 Dec 2010 Two sailors have been rescued from the three-masted schooner Raw Faith, a 118-foot, home-built yacht, which foundered approximately 100 miles southeast of Nantucket, Massachusetts. The vessel had been disabled and was reportedly taking on water. ...[more] Sailor perishes in late sail to the Canaries By Sail-World Round-up, , 8:15 AM Wed 1 Dec 2010 Sailor's lore goes that to cross the Atlantic, the savvy sailor will leave Europe for the Canaries no later than September before the savage winter gales set in. The wisdom of this was proved again this week as a British cruising sailor tragically perished in a journey between Lisbon and Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. ...[more] Sailing Tip of the Week: How never to hit bottom By Craig Headifen, , 7:38 AM Sun 28 Nov 2010 They say that there are two categories of sailors – those that have hit the bottom, and the liars. Well, with this article, I have to place myself firmly in the first category. I believe the reason 'they' (I never really know who 'they' are) make this statement is to promote caution, that you're never too immune from the bottom of the ocean no matter how much experience you have. ...[more] Collision with ship: how we survived By Sail-World Cruising/Russell Furlong, , 9:56 AM Tue 16 Nov 2010 Australian Jessica Watson did it last year when she didn't check her horizon, South African Russell Furlong did it when his crew member made the same mistake last week. Watson survived by a miracle, as did the yacht Pontus off the coast of South Africa. As it is so unlikely for a yacht to survive a collision with a ship, doubt had been expressed about the story. Furlong describes what happened: ...[more] A Day in the Life of the Coastguard By Nancy Knudsen, 9:06 AM Sun 14 Nov 2010 'Bill I thought you could give me a hand with my boat.' 'What Eric? What boat? I didn't know you had a boat.' 'Well I've just bought it and I have to go pick it up and bring it back to Newcastle...and seeing you've had more experience than me...' 'Yes, well that certainly was a great afternoon sailing I had with my son-in-law...learned quite a bit...' ...[more] Young sailor killed driving tender into anchored yacht By Sail-World Cruising, 11:05 AM Wed 10 Nov 2010 A young British sailor has lost his life by colliding with an anchored yacht in the Port of Monaco. William Black, a crew member on the 56 metre ketch Burrasca, was driving his tender at 10.20pm and collided with an unmanned, anchored yacht, only illuminated by the regulation anchor light at the top of the mast. ...[more] Yacht crew shaken after collision with cargo ship By Dispatch Online/Sail-World Cruising, , 11:27 AM Fri 5 Nov 2010 Three South African crew members on a yacht delivery trip between East London and Port Elizabeth had a narrow escape after their yacht was smashed from behind by a large cargo ship near Port Alfred. The incident happened in broad daylight at around 6am yesterday as the crew were underway to deliver the vessel to its owner, Quinton Dosson, in Port Elizabeth. ...[more] South Africa makes it official: Vessels 'required' to carry EPIRBs By Sarene Kloren, 6:40 AM Fri 5 Nov 2010 As rescue coordination centres around the world step up their pressure on yachts, ships and all seagoing vessels, the South African Maritime Safety Authority's (SAMSA) Centre of Sea Watch Response has issued a statement that all 'ships' are 'required' to carry an EPIRB.

Which ones are we talking about though? I mean, there are a lot of obscure characters to choose from. This question is too vague. I want them all.
Mini-Comic Characters
secondary NA characters
Curious as to who folks would rather have made into characters FIRST. Would you rather have never-before-made mini-comics characters, or classicized versions of secondary NA characters?
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a headThe B-52's
Which ones are we talking about though? I mean, there are a lot of obscure characters to choose from. This question is too vague. I want them all.
Minicomic pleaze
Mini-comic. Rana, Garn, Lodar, Prince Dakon...
Ask not for whom MOTUC is made, it's made for thee.
If you have to disclaimer your like, then you don't really like it.
i dont want them all but i gotta agree its too vague a question. who do you consider background? realistically how many could we get of either.
frankly i consider every hero in na other than he man hydron and flipshot to be background. except maybe sagitar and thats only cause hes boss
who are the secondary NA characters? If it's Master Sbrain, Grot, Critta, Drissi & Caz then I don't know. these are important characters.
I do love the mini comic characters too like Lodar, Kobolds, Prince Dakon, Garn, Goat Man & others.
Balancing the line is what is important to me when it comes to who comes first.
Skeleton-Warriors, Ra-Jar, Spinwit, Rock Golem, Evil Seed, Lord Masque, Prahvus, General Tartaran, Hawke, Slob-Boar, King Agho, Hunga the Harpy, Sh'gora, Masks of Power Demons, Nocturna, Lizzor, Horde Wraiths, Sagitar, Crimson Fury, Lodar, Vizar, Angast, Negator, Melaktha, ABC Giants, Stridor
Depends on the characters I'd say, so I call it a tie.
Maybe Marzo as an archenemy was the biggest thing to happen to Mekaneck, but as far as Marzo was concerned...it was Tuesday.
I'd much rather have the secondary NA characters. Such cool designs if they were made in Classics style.
The mini-comics characters (other than Geldor and maybe Loday) are VERY secondary, so NA secondary characters...(Nocturna, Kayo, Vizar...) would be cooler than getting Consul Ari and Leon in my opinion....
I would have to say mini comic characters because that is what I loved growing up. I am excited to see Garn and I really hope we geta Lodar at some point. I actually want him as much as any character left, except maybe Modulock.
I don't think it really matters if any are specified....just assume the top tier of secondary characters from each era....
I don't care for the comics, because I just really don't like Comics....nor do I like the early comic stories much. That being said, I don't like the NA story at all, He-Man leaving Eternia for another world....no.
But Since there are only 2 options to pick, original Vintage media characters vs characters from a story I could care less about.....
Mini Comics first.
But as many said, a good mix would be better. I don't want any of the NA figures we have, but they do look cool and fit with everyone else....so far, and we also have a couple Comic characters for the line. I personally don't want all the figures, but there are those that do, so, bring 'em.
Recent.... Lizard Man
Wanted.... NA She-Ra, Jitsu....
Needed.... Dragstor
Oh man, did I forget to use these [sarcasm][/sarcasm] again? Sorry....
Check here for my My collection page, MOTU and more!
Agreed, it really depends on which characters we're talking about! I'd prefer a Prince Dakon figure over Grot, but I'd prefer Grot over Goat Man! Everyone has his own favourite "obscure" characters...
I also think that we have no time for secondary/tertiary characters right now... Give us the rest of the main characters from every faction or era (NA/POP/POG/Rock People/Horde/SnakeMen). Give us some "most wanted" vintage and Filmation characters (Two Bad/Extendar/Scorpia and so on). And if there's still some life in the line after that, make characters like Grot, Drissi or Dakon...
20 Most needed characters before MOTUC ends...
Heroic: King Miro / Hawke / Dakon / Delora
Evil: Evilseed / Lodar
POP: King Micah / General Sunder/ Twiggets 3 pack
Horde: Vultak / Hunga / Prahvus
POG: Veena
SnakeMen: Sssqueeze
Rock People: Granita
NA: Darius / Sebrian / Crita
New Adventures ALL THE WAY!!!
DESPERATELY need ThunderCats Minimates series one!!!
**Staunch FILMation lover!!! **** MUST have a New Adventures Subscription!!!**
MOTUC NEEDS more TROLLANS !!!
Mini-Comic should go first, though I too want all of them!
...having said that, the NA Sorceress is WAY TOO AWESOME to take a back-seat to most of the minor characters in ANY genre, so I'm kinda torn...
Last edited by Collec-Tor; July 30, 2013 at 06:40am. Reason: based on research
I voted Mini-Comics, but characters such as Sebrian, Drissi, and Mara need to be made-though I'd hesitate to call them secondary.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
I'd probably lean towards mini-comic characters but i wouldn't mind seeing it done like a Filmation style sub i.e. six figures a year type of thing.
Most Wanted MOTU Classics:
*MotU ~ Multi-Bot/Tung Lashor *PoP ~ Angella/Mermista *200X ~ Roboto/Calix *Filmation ~ Teela Na/Lord Masque
*Play-Sets ~ Snake Mountain/Fright Zone *Vehicles ~ Roton/Land Shark *Beasts ~ Night Stalker/Stridor
Mini Comics. Most of the original NA designs are awful, and the cartoon was awful. NA stuff looks a lot better as Classics figures, but still, why not start with better source material?
Mini comics!!!
No lockout on lodar!!!
'Tis the wind and nothing more.....
New Adventures is heavily Underrepresented and they had toys, so characters who had a toy should take priority over obscure mini-comic folks!
FINALLY!! GLIMMER IS IN MY SHELF!! Now I need a Crita!! Crita is to Mara what Evil Lyn is to Teela. If we ARE getting Mara, then we NEED Crita.
New Adventures with out a doubt. The only Mini-comic characters I'm really fussed about are Lodar and maybe Garn.
MOTUC NA Most Wanted: Darius, Kayo, Vizar, Hoove, Lizorr
Trade my Red Stone He-Ro Staff for a Green one
Mini-comic characters, no contest.
"A knight is sworn to valor. His heart knows only virtue. His blade defends the helpless. His word speaks only truth. His wrath undoes the wicked."
Easy. Mini-comics. This line is getting too expensive for more NA.
Support Green Mini-Comic Trap Jaw in MOTUC!
Land Shark in MOTUC!!!!!! Do it Mattel!!! Do it NOW!!!!
Support The Power & Honor Foundation
I grew up with quite a few new adventures figures. It has some terrific character designs (SAGITAR!!! LIZORR!!!). And we've seen what the 4HM are capable of.
So definately NA!
Press down on dragon's head. It will bite off your frickin' fingers !!!
Not sure how to vote since it kind of depends on the circumstances. Characters like Lodar and Delora are pretty high on my want list but after that I'd probably prefer secondary NA. Also if we were down to the final final characters and the line was coming to a permanent end and we had to choose between COMPLETING all the vintage NA figures or getting some of the top wanted mini comic figures I might choose to complete NA just so it would be a complete set, but on the other hand if completing NA was too far out of reach and it was just a question of do you want a couple more NA or a couple more mini comic before the line ends I might choose mini comic.

I've written a few times about "the real unemployment" that is bedeviling the country as a result of Barack Obama's destructive policies. My previous comments should be supplemented by Elizabeth MacDonald's Fox Business column of this past Friday on "The real unemployment rate." Now comes Americans For Prosperity with a powerful political ad titled "The Dinner Table." It is an ad that captures something of the widespread suffering I mean to capture by reference to "the real unemployment." AFP footnotes the video with a citation to its jobs agenda.

This tweet got a Jazz employee in trouble. / @NetsTakeOver, via Deseret News
Mark Cuban does not own the Utah Jazz. If he did, this might not be an issue.
An unnamed Jazz employee tweeted a very mild insult about the Brooklyn Nets and point guard Deron Williams, who spent 5½ seasons in Salt Lake City, on Thursday after the team fired coach Avery Johnson. That employee has been punished, the Deseret News of Salt Lake City reported.
"Yesterday, a member of the Utah Jazz staff posted an inappropriate Tweet to the official Jazz account. This employee no longer has login access to the Jazz Twitter account and further disciplinary action is being taken internally," the team said in a statement. "The Jazz does not comment on other NBA teams transactions and furthermore, does not condone any negative comments about any players, coaches, or front office staff throughout the league. It is simply unprofessional and unacceptable."
The tweet in question, captured by @NetsTakeOver, said, "#PhilJackson won't go to Brooklyn. He'll only go somewhere he can win a title. Not interested in good players, he wants great players. #NBA"
Now, the reasonable inference here is Williams, the supposed star of the Nets, is not a great player. But Williams has slumped all season, so that doesn't seem like much of a stretch.
The bigger question we have is where this random Jazz staffer is getting inside information on Jackson's desires. It may seem like a logical point, but these things often operate outside the bounds of logic.
Either way, we're guessing Cuban, the Dallas Mavericks owner with a running feud with Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov, would have laughed this one off. No harm, no foul.
Prokhorov? He's been heli-skiing in British Columbia. Because he's a James Bond villain.

Taxi fares in Cleveland don't take you for a ride
Blog Entry:
April 30, 2013 2:08 PM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
If you find yourself in need of a taxi in Cleveland, you'll get a
pretty good deal
compared with other big U.S. cities.
USA Today
asked TaxiFareFinder.com to calculated estimated one-mile, five-mile and 10-mile fares in the 60 largest U.S. metropolitan areas.
In Cleveland, the average 10-mile fare is $27.37, which ranks 44th out of the 60 cities. Fares here are slightly lower than Columbus ($27.98) and Cincinnati ($27.55).
The country's cheapest average 10-mile fare is in Detroit, at $19.97. Pittsburgh, at $22.42, is another peer city where fares are quite a bit lower than Cleveland.
Fares are highest in Honolulu — a 10-mile trip there will set you back $41.61 — followed by San Jose and San Francisco.
Taxi rates "have been steadily increasing" and "can certainly hit the wallets of avid business travelers," Ippei Takahashi, founder of TaxiFareFinder, tells
USA Today
. Other transportation costs also are rising, and "the door-to-door convenience and quickness of taxis" remain in "very high demand by business travelers," he says.
Taxi fares are generally higher in cities with higher costs of living and gasoline prices, and in cities that are popular tourist and business destinations, Mr. Takahashi says.
This and that
By the numbers:
is doing the work
Congress asked of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Three years ago, the news service notes, Congress directed the SEC "to require public companies to disclose the ratio of their chief executive officers' compensation to the median of the rest of their employees'." The agency, though, has yet to produce a rule.
So Bloomberg calculated ratios based on the U.S. government's industry-specific averages for pay and benefits of rank-and-file workers. The above link will take you to a table, searchable by company name, CEO or industry, that shows the Standard & Poor's 500 Index top 250 companies by ratio.
No. 1 on the list is JC Penney Co., where the ratio of former CEO Ronald Johnson's pay to that of the median JC Penney worker was $1,795 to 1.
The first Northeast Ohio company you'll find on the list is Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., at No. 44 with a 407-to-1 ratio for CEO Richard Kramer.
Eaton Corp. is No. 48 on the list; its ratio for CEO Sandy Cutler is 394 to 1.
Other Northeast Ohio companies listed are Parker Hannifin Co. (No. 96, with a 304-to-1 ratio), FirstEnergy Corp. (No. 197, 204-to-1) and Sherwin-Williams Co. (No. 228, 184-to-1).
Try it. You'll like it:
Ohio politicians played a
key role
in making sure the Army gets more tanks it didn't ask for and doesn't want.
"Lawmakers from both parties have devoted nearly half a billion dollars in taxpayer money over the past two years to build improved versions of the 70-ton Abrams tank," the Associated Press reports. "But senior Army officials have said repeatedly, 'No thanks.' "
Even so, there's now a bipartisan push to spend an extra $436 million "on a weapon the experts explicitly say is not needed," according to the AP.
Why's that? From the story:
Keeping the Abrams production line rolling protects businesses and good paying jobs in congressional districts where the tank's many suppliers are located.
If there's a home of the Abrams, it's politically important Ohio. The nation's only tank plant is in Lima. So it's no coincidence that the champions for more tanks are Rep. Jim Jordan and Sen. Rob Portman, two of Capitol's Hill most prominent deficit hawks, as well as Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown. They said their support is rooted in protecting national security, not in pork-barrel politics.
"The one area where we are supposed to spend taxpayer money is in defense of the country," said Jordan, whose district in the northwest part of the state includes the tank plant.
Everyone loves a winner:
Brand Keys' 21st annual "Sports Fan Loyalty Index," summarized
by Forbes.com, shows very clearly that losing takes its toll on even the most dedicated team supporters.
The index's calculations are based on four factors: History and Tradition (35%), Fan Bonding (28%), Pure Entertainment (20%) and Authenticity (17%).
Based on those factors, the five most-loyal fan bases in the NFL are the New England Patriots, the Green Bay Packers, the Baltimore Ravens, the San Francisco 49ers and the Indianapolis Colts. (All winners, if you hadn't noticed.)
The bottom five: the Oakland Raiders (No. 32 out of 32 NFL teams), the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Cleveland Browns, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Arizona Cardinals.
All this is pretty meaningless, though, until we see how loyal 49ers fans are if their team goes nearly 20 years without a playoff victory. (Yes, it was 1994 when the Browns last won even one game in the playoffs.)

Clinical Study of an Aluvia-based HAART Regimen for Prevention of Mother-to-child HIV Transmission in Africa
Recruitment status was Active, not recruiting
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Therapeutic options to prevent vertical transmission of HIV remain limited. Combination antiretroviral therapy in the form of HAART (Highly Active Anti Retroviral Therapy) is generally recommended in the developed world, both for its ability to reduce maternal viral load, and thus the likelihood of transmission, as well as for its prevention of drug resistance mutations, which might otherwise reduce future options for therapy in the mother, infant, or both. Exclusive formula-feeding is also recommended in the developed world (where clean water sources & adequate hygiene is reliably available) to prevent HIV transmission through breastmilk, however, this is not yet a feasible option in many developing world settings due to economic, infrastructure, social and infant-health reasons.
The investigators propose use of a HAART regimen during pregnancy and breastfeeding that is based upon the recently released Aluvia tablets (tablet form of LOPINAVIR/RITONAVIR or LOP; established capsule form is known as Kaletra) to improve maternal virological control and thus mother-to-child-transmission (MTCT).
Hypothesis: Maternal use of HAART containing Zidovudine, 3TC and Aluvia (Lopinavir/Ritonavir) can prevent antepartum, and intrapartum transmission of HIV, as well as allow exclusive and then subsequent complementary feeding to be carried out with minimum risk to the mother and infant.
- Study regimen: ZDV/3TC (combivir) + 2 Aluvia Tabs all PO BID to start at 14-30 weeks gestational age (GA) and continue through labor and as long as the mother breastfeeds
- Peripartum single dose Nevirapine (sdNVP) (Note: Mothers will also be receiving ZDV as part of the study regimen) to mother and sdNVP + 5 days postpartum ZDV to the infant will be given as per current Zambian practice
- Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) x 6 months then complementary foods to be added, with aim for a gradual wean of breastfeeding by infant age of 12-13 months. In case of inability to wean by 13 months, however, drug will be continued until the mother has achieved a complete wean.
- Follow-up period: Mother & child will be followed to an infant age of 24 months, as per schedule-of-visits (approx every 3 months)

For Sochi, who is our besthope? Who'll be number 2 at Nationals. I think Mirai may be peaking again next year. It wont daunt her. Is she a possibility besides Grace?

Who are we assuming is going in as the National Champion?
Way to soon to look that far ahead. Hopefully the U.S has 3 spots by then. Wagner if she stays on course is a lock for an Olympic spot, the others still wide open at this point, however IF the 2nd U.S lady at Worlds this year helps the U.S regain 3 spots, she will be a near lock for 1 of the remaining 2 spots if she doesnt fall apart next season IMHO, leaving one open for the others to fight for.
I think with the downfall of Russia and Canada's lady lacking experience things are looking good for three spots.
I think it will be hard for Mirai. I was watching her 2010 programs last night and her body has changed so much since then that I don't think her build is as suited to doing the triples as it once was. In contrast Yuna and Mao have maintained similar builds in the last few years. I think we'll have 3 ladies in Sochi, my guess would be Ashley, Gracie, and someone currently off the radar like Angela.
Really? I think it'll be harder to get three spots this year than last year or the year prior, actually.
1. The first members of Russia's baby brigade are finally eligible for worlds. Leonova and Marakova were able to get three spots!!! With Sotnikova and Tuktamisheva, it should be at least equally easy for them.
2. Canada's lady definitely lacks experience. But a top ten spot is certainly within the realm of possibility.
3. Meanwhile, so many other skaters are fighting here. Korpi, Suzuki, Asada, Murakami, Kim, Kostner, Zijun Li, Mae Berenice Maete.... all have the ability to skate well enough to make it difficult for two ladies to earn that third spot. THAT stated, Wagner's best score along with Gao/Nagasu/Gold would be enough to get the third spot. But it would be a get, and would suggest that the two Americans skated at or above par.
4. I'd argue that the seismic shifts that took place in pairs means that it's the easiest discipline for any nation with two slots to earn a third one (four of the top 12 have either split up or been injured; five if you include Dube/Wolfe who've been question marks)
Downfall of Russia is right. Tuktamisheva has the worst pcs. Sotnikova likes to single her flips and fall a lot. Gosviani is a total no one. Russia will be lucky for 2 spots in ladies.
I think Russia will do okay. Liza T's PCS aren't the best but her TES should keep her close to the top 5 and even though Adelina is a headcase, even when she tanks she scores well. Both ladies have the hardest content (3-3s in the SP and LP and a 2a-3T in the LP as well) and are capable of scoring well enough to earn three spots. Alena has been MIA all year long so I'm not expecting much from her (she is going, right?).
The Russian's aren't dominating the way everyone assumed they would two years ago but I think they have a decent shot at getting three spots this year as well.
As for the OP's topic, I hope Ashley and Skater X are able to earn three spots this year. I'd love to see Ashley stay on top as the US champ and lead the team to Sochi. As for the other two spots, it's wide open right now.
A lot of people are putting their faith in Gracie based on her potential but until she's far from a lock for Sochi or even worlds this year. She has not proved herself to be a strong competitor yet. She's had one good SP and two mediocre LPs this season. I'm not convinced she's the best bet. I still don't see the hype about her...
If Mirai continues on the path she's on now and is able to add some better programs and consistency to her skating, she'd be a good candidate...If Christina settles into her style and really learns to sell her programs to the judges, she'd in the mix. If Agnes can find some consistency...if Alissa makes a full recovery and gets back to where she was in 2011...and then there are the newbies: Angela has all 5 triples including 3-3s and a lovely style, but she's unknown outside of the junior circuit...then there's Hannah Miller, Leah Keiser, Samantha Cesario...any one of these girls could have a breakout year and position themselves to get on that team.
It's way too early to guess and waaay too many thing that could factor in.

too early for sochi 2nd u.s. lady
but you are right in getting 3 for u.s. in all displines going to be tough.
russia has 3 elizaveta, adelina those two alone will make it tough to get in top 10
china has zijun li, does any one know if kexin zhang going
finland has kiira korpi
japan 3 ladies of mao, akiko, kanako
canada, of kaetlyn does canada qualify two for worlds, if so have to count in amelie la coste. or 2nd canadian since in canada
france of mae bernice will 2nd france lady be anais ventard.
georgia, elene gedevanishvilli
germans lady of either natalie, sarah
sweden of victoria helgesson and joshi helgession
itlay =carolina kostner, valentina marchei
korea -yu na kim
anything can happen after the top 6 of yu-na mao carolina kostner, ashley, elizaveta, and kaetlyn 7-12 anyones guess

Last edited by fairly4; 01-04-2013 at 01:45 PM. Reason: add men dance
viture and moir i am assuming gilles and poirer makes the team. possible paul/islam
france pechalat /bourzat; carron & jones
russia, bobrova soloviev, ilynkh & katsalapov, riazonova & tkachakov (sorry about misspelled)
italy, cappellini and lanotte
german =zighanshina and gazsi
not easy.
let see
german team of s/szolkowy, 2nd place finisher
russian 3 teams. v/t, k/s/, b/l
china team of pang/tong, 2nd place team
canadian 3 teams, duhamel/radford, i am assuming moore-towers/moscovitch, dube /wolfe, however the young teams of purdy/marinaro, and boback and beharry can upset the apple cart
italy, berton and hotarek
france, teams
since u.s. is possible sending new young teams in. difficult to say the least. can be done, but all u.s. skaters in all displines have to be on top of their game
At the gpf Liza did well on jumps and her tes was 63 but so was maos! Mao tied Liza on tes and then of course pcs was not even close! lizas jumps didn't mean anything because even though Mao is a terrible jumper she filled all her jumping slots and did grea spins and steps and got great goe. At worlds you will have Yuna and Carolina and akiko and Ashley all with much superior pcs and near equal Tes. Plus there are others as well. Lizas Tes isn't actually high enough to make up for the pcs being so atrociously awful. That's why she needs near 70 or above which may require triple Axels plus two 3/3's.
Dance won't be all that hard. D&W are unlikely to finish lower than 2nd, in which case 11th will do for 3 spots. And since the US has 3 spots this year, there are two teams (Shibs & some other team) with a shot at finishing high enough for 3 spots. So while it's not impossible (as ice is slippery), the discipline in which the US is most likely to have 3 spots for Olympics is dance.
If you look at the top ISU total dance scores for the season:
8. Shibutanis (NHK)
10. Chock & Bates (CoC)
12. Hubbell & Donohure (TEB)
15. Kriengkrairut & Giuletti-Schmitt (SkAm)
Now looking at the teams above KG/S, at least 2 would not be there if they are (USA)
(9)Stepanova & Bukin and (14) Papadakis & Cizeron are competing as juniors (and won't be at Worlds)
Consequenly, K &G-S would be in 11th place without these teams.
Hubbell and Donohue would be in 10th place without these teams
Chock & Bates would be in 9th without Stepanova & Bukin.
And that's assuming Weaver & Poje will be able to compete at Worlds
Pairs will be hard, even though a lot of good teams won't be competing, because the US ranks are so decimated that it is possible that Castelli & Shnapir may be the top US team at Worlds. With luck, the US should qualify for 2 teams, but 3 is asking a lot.
True. But once you get out of the top two tiers of skating (Yu-Na, Mao, Carolina, Ashley, Akiko), PCS is less of a factor and TES is what counts and that's where Liza can compete. She's a very long shot for a medal and an outside shot for top 5. But if she skates well and hits her jumps, she should be in the top 6 or 7 ladies this year.
I'd argue that three spots is most likely for the following countries/disciplines
Japan, Men and Ladies
Canada, Pairs
USA, Dance
Russia, Pairs
and Possible/Plausible
Canada, Dance
USA, Ladies
Russia, Dance and Ladies
France, Men
Germany, Pairs
China, Pairs
Anything else would qualify as a surprise.

By Joanne Sperando-SchmidtPH Patient and New York Fun Walk Organizer
Left to Right: Jean Steck, Joanne's husband Ken, Joanne,Kerri and Juan Rubio at the Disco Fever Concert
Kerri Rubio is one determined lady. Not only has she participated in the New York Fun Walk many times, but she recently organized a dinner fundraiser and, through those efforts, connected with a local radio fundraiser to further raise PH awareness and benefit PHA programs.
Kerri and her husband, Juan, are resolute that no other family should have to experience a loss as they have. Their 14-month-old daughter, Kayla, passed away in August 2008 after battling severe pulmonary hypertension. Just two months later, Kerri and Juan attended the 4th Annual New York Fun Walk to walk in Kayla's memory and participate in the memorial balloon release. They've attended the walk every year since then.
Now they are turning their grief into further action. On October 9, Kerri and Juan organized a dinner fundraiser. They contacted their local businesses, who donated food and other items. They also held a raffle of donated items, and the event raised $3,000.
While planning this event, Kerri contacted a local oldies radio station, B103, on Long Island, N.Y. She was put in touch with Mickey B, a writer/singer/producer known as "The Prince of Rock n Roll." When she told Mickey the story of Kayla's battle with PH, he immediately wanted to help. Mickey was producing a charity event on November 6, the Thanksgiving Disco Fever Concert, with many artists from the '70s. Three other charities would be present and have the opportunity to raise money to benefit their organizations, and Mickey added PHA to the roster. On October 2, Mickey attended the New York Fun Walk to promote the event. He addressed the crowd and got everyone dancing; he even held an impromptu dance contest and gave away two tickets to the disco concert on the spot.
On the night of the concert Kerri and Juan set up a table with lots of information about pulmonary hypertension and a poster board that told Kayla's story. Together with Juan and Kerri, my husband Ken, my friend Jean Steck and I worked the lobby as concert attendees arrived, selling tickets for a 50/50 raffle and telling all who'd listen about PH and our efforts to raise awareness and funds for research. We were thrilled when the winner of the raffle donated his winnings right back to PHA.
Kerri and Juan Rubio aren't done and promise to continue their efforts in Kayla's memory and on behalf of all families affected by pulmonary hypertension. We are so lucky to have them fighting with us.
