I'm spoiled by your love and I know it Like being in the ocean I feel you all around me and I'm floating Smothered with your passion I feel your warmth! Your heart beats for the both of us it's so strong! I'll glide on your beautiful grace leaving a trace for others to follow And maybe just maybe fill their hollow selves... we didn't find a book on the shelves we are what stories are made of.

More than 200 generic drugs were screened to identify the inhibitory activity on melanogenesis in mouse B16 melanoma cells. Cinnarizine and trazodone were identified as melanogenesis inhibitors. The inhibitory effects of the two drugs on cell survival, melanogenesis, and tyrosinase activity were investigated. The results showed that both cinnarizine and trazodone inhibited melanogenesis in B16 cells by a dose-dependent manner at the non-cytotoxic concentrations. Based on the results of the present study, seeking new melanogenesis inhibitors from generic drugs is an alternative approach to developing new depigmenting agents in cosmeceuticals. Moreover, cinnarizine and trazodone were proven to be good candidates as skin-whitening agents for treatment of skin hyperpigmentation.
Human skin color is mainly determined by pigment melanin, which is produced by dermal melanocytes through a melanin synthesis process, melanogenesis. Melanogenesis occurs in a special organelle, melanosome, in melanocytes and is initiated by a key enzyme, tyrosinase [
Recently, a huge number of melanogenesis inhibitors were discovered due to a great improvement on knowledge about the regulation of melanogenesis [
In the preliminary study, we selected more than 200 generic drugs to search new depigmenting agents. The criteria of the selected drugs include being approved by The Food and Drug Administration of Taiwan, on the paid-drugs list by The Bureau of National Health Insurance of Taiwan, and in the form of pill. The list of the drugs is shown in
We evaluated the cytotoxicity of cinnarizine and trazodone to mouse B16 melanoma cells before the depigmenting assay. The cells were treated with different concentrations of the drugs and then the cell survival was determined by the MTT method (
To study the effects of cinnarizine and trazodone on melanogenesis in B16 cells, the cells were treated with the drugs and the melanin contents in the treated cells were directly monitored by Fontana-Masson stain of the cells (
Because tyrosinase plays a key role in melanogenesis, we then investigated the effects of the two drugs on the activity of this enzyme using a photometric method (
A previous study has reported that many cytokines and growth factors play important regulatory roles in melanogenesis [
All generic drug tablets used in this study are listed in
Mouse B16 melanoma cells (4A5) were obtained from the Bioresources Collection and Research Center (BCRC, Food Industry Research and Development Institute, Hsinchu, Taiwan). The cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum at 37 °C in a humidified, CO2-controlled (5%) incubator. The cells were seeded at an appropriate cell density in a 24-well plate. After 1 d of incubation, the cells were treated with various concentrations of the drugs in the absence or presence of a stimulation agent (100 μM of IBMX) for another 2 d. Thereafter, the cells were harvested and used for various assays.
MTT assay was performed to examine the viability of cells [
At the end of cell culture, the cells were harvested and washed twice with PBS. Fontana-Masson stain of the cells was conducted by a Fontana-Masson stain Kit (ScyTek Lab., Logan, UT, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The Kit is used for the visualization of melanin in cells, where cell nuclei, cytoplasm and melanin would display red, light pink, and black, respectively, after staining. The staining cells were photographed under a phase-contrast microscopy equipped with a digital camera.
The assay of evaluation of melanin content in B16 cells was according to our previous paper [
Murine tyrosinase activity was examined by measuring the rate of oxidation of
All the data in the present study were obtained as averages of experiments that were performed in triplicate and are expressed as means ± S.D. Statistical analysis was performed by the Student's
In conclusion, our results clearly demonstrated that searching new melanogenesis inhibitors from generic drugs is an alternative approach to develop new depigmenting agents in cosmeceuticals. From the results of the present study, cinnarizine and trazodone may be useful as candidates as skin-whitening agents for the treatment of skin hyperpigmentation.

When the most exciting play of a game is the extra point, you know you're watching a stinker. Thursday night's preseason game between the Bengals and Patriots was just that, and it was painful to watch. New England wasn't able to muster much on the offensive side of the ball, and was unable to cross the goal line all night long, falling to the Bengals, who stunk just a little less than the Pats did, by a slim 7-6 score.
The game marked the return of Tom Brady to Gillette Stadium for the first time since the opener of the 2008 regular season, when just 7 minutes into the game, Kansas City's Bernard Pollard put a quick end to Brady's year, sidelining #12 with a season-ending knee injury. Pats fans welcomed Brady with a standing ovation as he took the field for New England's first drive of the game. Brady, who saw action for the Pats' two opening series, finished the game going 4-for-8 for 57 yards through the air.
The New England offense was limited to just two Stephen Gostkowski field goals, of 32 and 41 yards in length. On the other side of the ball, Cincinnati mounted their only scoring drive of the game in the second quarter, when quarterback J.T. O'Sullivan connected with receiver Chris Henry on a 24-yard touchdown strike, which would set up what would turn out to be the game-winning point-after kick. Arguably the biggest play of the game, with starting place kicker Shayne Graham out with a strained groin, wide receiver and professional annoyance Chad Ochocinco stepped up and delivered the point-after kick, splitting the uprights, and giving Cincinnati the seven points needed to hold onto the victory.

TOULOUSE (FIBA U17 World Championship for Women) – Argentina turned their recent fortunes around with a 75-49 victory over Mali, but it was too little too late as they failed to qualify for the quarter-finals.
The result saw Argentina finish Group B of the Preliminary Round with a 2-3 mark and Mali 0-5.
The two teams will go to Rodez and play in the Classification Round, which begins on Friday.
Mali's M'Bamakan Kanouté opened the scoring with a three-pointer, but Argentina quickly overtook them – despite the absence of Fanta Guindo who was injured on Tuesday – and led 17-12 after at the end of the first quarter.
Eduardo Pinto's side took advantage of Mali's numerous turnovers to score easy baskets and go up 41-22 at the interval.
Mali did have their moments when they were a pleasure to watch, but their passing was not crisp enough and allowed Argentina to pull away further, going up 56-35 to end the third period.
The Malians had a 9-0 run early in the final frame, but Argentina had a sizable enough lead not to be concerned.
Eduardo Pinto (Argentina head coach): We won but we are sad because we finish in fifth place, despite our great game against Belgium. We could have done better. It's a pity. We will prepare to play for the ninth place. It will be better than nothing.
Sidiya Oumarou (Mali head coach): Honestly, we didn't expect to lose by such a big difference. We thought Argentina had more or less the same technical and tactical level as us. We have the smallest and youngest players of the group and this is one reason that explains our difficulties. Six of our best players stayed in Africa to compete in the African Nation Cup as it remains a priority for our country as we currently hold the title. We will keep on working. FIBA/LOC

The great curassow (Crax rubra) (Spanish: hocofaisán, pavón norteño) is a large, pheasant-like bird from the Neotropics.
At 78–100 cm (31–39 in) in length and 3.1–4.8 kg (6.8–10.6 lb) in weight, this is a very large cracid.[2][3] Females are somewhat smaller than males. It is the most massive and heavy species in the family but its length is matched by a few other cracids.[2][4][5] Four other species of curassow (the northern helmeted, the southern helmeted, the black and the crested) are all around the same average length as the great curassow. In this species, standard measurements are as follows: the wing chord is 36 to 42.4 cm (14.2 to 16.7 in), the tail is 29 to 38 cm (11 to 15 in) and the tarsus is 9.4 to 12 cm (3.7 to 4.7 in). They have the largest mean standard measurements in the family, but for tail length.[6]
The male is black with a curly crest, a white belly, and a yellow knob on its bill.[2] There are three morphs of female great curassows:[2] barred morph females with barred neck, mantle, wings and tail; rufous morph with an overall reddish brown plumage and a barred tail; and dark morph female with a blackish neck, mantle and tail (the tail often faintly vermiculated), and some barring to the wings. In most regions only one or two morphs occur, and females showing a level of intermediacy between these morphs are known (e.g. resembling rufous morph, but with black neck and faint vermiculations to wings). This species has a similar voice to several other curassows, its call consisting of a "peculiar" lingering whistle.[6]
A monogamous species, the great curassow is distributed in rainforest from eastern Mexico throughout Central America, to western Colombia and northwest Ecuador.[2] In Mexico, it is absent from drier western coastal forests but does occasionally occur in dry areas of the Yucatan, Cozumel Island and Costa Rica. The great curassow spends much of its time on the ground, but nests and roosts in trees. This species is gregarious, occurring in groupings of up to a dozen birds, though occasionally birds can be seen alone. Its diet consists mainly of fruits, figs and arthropods. Small vertebrates may supplement the diet on occasion, including small mammals (such as rodents) and small fledging birds. Unlike other cracids, such as guans, they feed largely on fallen fruit rather than pluck fruit directly from the trees. In Tamaulipas, it feeds largely on the fruit Spondias mombin. Elsewhere, it may prefer the red berries of Chione trees.[6]
The male great curassow may build the nest and attract a female's attention to it, though in other cases both members of a pair will build the nest structure. Two eggs are typically laid in a relatively small nest (usually made largely of leaves), each egg measuring 9.1 cm × 6.7 cm (3.6 in × 2.6 in) and weighing 200 g (7.1 oz). The young curassow weighs 123 g (4.3 oz) upon hatching; 2,760 g (6.08 lb) as a half-year-old immature fledgling; and by a year of age, when fully fledged and independent of parental care, will be about three-quarters of their adult weight at 3,600 g (7.9 lb). This species has been noted for its rather aggressive temperament, which has been regularly directed at humans when the birds are held in captivity. Undoubtedly, they have this inclination in order to repel natural predators, from both themselves and their offspring. Known natural predators of this species have included ocelots and ornate hawk-eagles, though chicks and eggs likely have a broader range of predators. When a potential predator is near their offspring, curassows have been noted to engage in a distraction display, feigning injury. When attacking humans, the curassows leap in fluttering flight and scratch about the head, targeting the eyes. Their lifespan in captivity has reached at least 24 years.[6]
The great curassow is the most northernly Crax species. It is part of a clade that inhabited the north of South America since about 9 mya (Tortonian, Late Miocene). As the Colombian Andes were uplifted around 6 mya, this species' ancestors were cut off from the population to their southeast. The latter would in time evolve into the blue-billed curassow. The ancestral great curassows then spread along the Pacific side of the Andes, and into Central America during the Pliocene and Pleistocene (Pereira & Baker 2004) as part of the Great American Interchange.
Due to ongoing habitat loss and overhunting in some areas, the great curassow is evaluated as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. It is listed on Appendix III of CITES in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Colombia and Honduras. Of the smaller subspecies griscomi of Cozumel Island, only a few hundred remain. Its population seems either to have been slowly increasing since the 1980s, or to be fluctuating at a low level; it is vulnerable to hurricanes.[2]
This species has proven to produce fertile hybrids with its closest living relative the blue-billed curassow, and also with the much more distantly related black curassow.[2]

This Month in the Garden (November 2009)... The
flowers of native witch-hazels are the final blooms in Port Washington
gardens. They appear after
the last yellow leaves flutter away, leaving the tree's bare branches
festooned in yellow streamers. Hamamelis
is native to North America east of the Mississippi River and takes its
name from a corruption of the Old English words meaning pliant hazel.
It is a multi-stemmed understory tree usually growing 10 to 15
feet tall and wide although specimens in ideal locations may reach 30
feet. This native is hardy
from zones 3 to 8 and is easily identified by its zig-zagging branch
pattern. The
tree's leaves and bark are used to make astringent used in
after-shaves, acne treatments, and to soothe aches and bruises.
It's also used for the "divining rods" dousers claim will
find water. Witch
hazel is unusual not only for its late season bloom but because its
jingle bell-like fruit capsules take a year to mature before explosively
expelling their seeds. In
the autumn the four petal flowers, seed capsules and buds for the next
year's blossoms are all present on the tree at the same time. Most witch hazels available at nurseries are hybrids of Asian species (sold as Hamamelis x intermedia) which bloom in late winter, from late February to early April. These trees have flowers ranging from yellow to orange to red and autumn color of yellow through orange. They're pollution tolerant and hardy from zone 5 to 8.

On Earthday 2009, I was coming home when I noticed a dog was coming to the middle of the highway. I felt sorry for the dog, but I told myself not to take her, I already got heartbroken by taking in a stray. I don't know why, but I stopped the car. I knew if I didn't come and help her, there would chihuahua splat-o on the road. So, I ran to the middle of the highway and came closer to the dog. I just wanted to see if she had tags and chase her from the highway, but as I came closer to her she looked me in the eyes. I'll never forget that look. Her eyes just screamed "Help Me." So I scooped the chihuahua up in my arms and took her inside the car. 2 weeks passed and no one replied to the posters we hung up. The dog, now known as Bambi, had a forever home. I'm glad I stopped and picked her up, I love her so much now.

Gene expression evidence for off-target effects caused by RNA interference-mediated gene silencing of Ubiquitin-63E in the cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus
Lew-Tabor, A.E., Kurscheid, S., Barrero, R., Gondro, C., Moolhuijzen, P.M., Rodriguez Valle, M., Morgan, J.A.T., Covacin, C. and Bellgard, M.I. (2011) Gene expression evidence for off-target effects caused by RNA interference-mediated gene silencing of Ubiquitin-63E in the cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus. International Journal for Parasitology, 41 (9). pp. 1001-1014.
*Subscription may be required
Knowledge of cattle tick (Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus; Acari: Ixodidae) molecular and cellular pathways has been hampered by the lack of an annotated genome. In addition, most of the tick expressed sequence tags (ESTs) available to date consist of not, vert, similar50% unassigned sequences without predicted functions. The most common approach to address this has been the application of RNA interference (RNAi) methods to investigate genes and their pathways. This approach has been widely adopted in tick research despite minimal knowledge of the tick RNAi pathway and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) uptake mechanisms. A strong knockdown phenotype of adult female ticks had previously been observed using a 594 bp dsRNA targeting the cattle tick homologue for the Drosophila Ubiquitin-63E gene leading to nil or deformed eggs. A NimbleGen cattle tick custom microarray based on the BmiGI.V2 database of R. microplus ESTs was used to evaluate the expression of mRNAs harvested from ticks treated with the tick Ubiquitin-63E 594 bp dsRNA compared with controls. A total of 144 ESTs including TC6372 (Ubiquitin-63E) were down-regulated with 136 ESTs up-regulated following treatment. The results obtained substantiated the knockdown phenotype with ESTs identified as being associated with ubiquitin proteolysis as well as oogenesis, embryogenesis, fatty acid synthesis and stress responses. A bioinformatics analysis was undertaken to predict off-target effects (OTE) resulting from the in silico dicing of the 594 bp Ubiquitin-63E dsRNA which identified 10 down-regulated ESTs (including TC6372) within the list of differentially expressed probes on the microarrays. Subsequent knockdown experiments utilising 196 and 109 bp dsRNAs, and a cocktail of short hairpin RNAs (shRNA) targeting Ubiquitin-63E, demonstrated similar phenotypes for the dsRNAs but nil effect following shRNA treatment. Quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR analysis confirmed differential expression of TC6372 and selected ESTs. Our study demonstrated the minimisation of predicted OTEs in the shorter dsRNA treatments (not, vert, similar100–200 bp) and the usefulness of microarrays to study knockdown phenotypes.

Mom brings rabid bat to school
Filed under: Big Kids, Tweens, Health & Safety: Babies, Weird But True, Day Care & Education
Show and tell at school is great. Kids love it because it is a chance for them to bring something personal from home and show it off to all their classmates. Choosing just what to bring for show and tell can be difficult, but favorite toys and vacation souvenirs are always good ideas. But if you are looking for bad ideas of what to bring for show and tell, look no further than this mom in Stevensville, Montana. She brought a dead bat to her kid's elementary school. And if that wasn't bad enough, that bat was dead because it had rabies.
Now, I don't know if it was really show and tell day for her two kids at Stevensville Elementary, but she did more than show and tell about it anyway. She allowed the students in one kindergarten class and four fifth grade classes to actually handle the dead creature.
According to Superintendent Kent Kultgen, her bad idea was well thought out. She presented the bat along with "good information" and even brought hand sanitizer for the kids to use after touching it. Maybe she thought this would be a really cool Halloween-related presentation, but clearly it was not. Although the risk of contracting rabies from touching the bat is fairly small, the school is taking no chances. About 90 kids are now receiving rabies shots just in case they came in contact with the bat's saliva.
Those shots could end up costing over $70,000, which will be paid for by the school's liability insurance. As bad as that is, the worst pain will be felt by the students themselves. Over the next few weeks, they will undergo a series of six shots to ensure that they are not infected with a potentially fatal neurological virus. Way to go, mom.
Nothing -- she's probably embarrassed enough. | |
She should pay for the kids' shots, of course. | |
Someone should SUE HER!!! |

Jeff said...Rabies is not something to mess around with. We had a bat in our house a month ago and when I caught it stupid me let the thing go without having it tested. Since bat bites are very small and don't always leave a mark, you have to be very careful. My four year old got the month long treatment of shots because of my mistake.
Moral of the story -- keep the bat and have it tested.
nancy said...i don't understand why the teacher didn't prevent the demonstration in the first place...
Jessica said...The only way to test for rabies is to kill the host, and test it's brain... therefore if this bat was actually tested, and was positive... it would have been headless... and WHY would you take a headless creature to an elementary school? Not all wildlife is rabid!! Just because the species is known to POSSIBLY carry rabies, it doesn't meant that individual animal is!! Respect living creatures, don't kill them becasue you are afraid of them!! LEARN about them... you'll find their not as scarey as you thought!!
Here's a fact for you... you are more likely to encounter a DOMESTIC CAT that has rabies than any wildlife! Keep that in mind the next time you want to kill a defenseless creature, and let your child play with the neighborhood stray/outdoor cat!
Sherri said...I live only 11 miles from the community in question of the rabid bat. It is very common to have them fly in early dusk here. We are a mountianous area, and many hiding places for them. For ANYONE to find a dead wild animal here is also common. I also agree caution for displaying a dead animal is common sense though. use of gloves..not allowing children to touch but observe should have been followed. Most people know that dead animals start to decompose as soon as they die harboring bacteria and viruses not to mention the reason of its death. Shame on all of them who allowed the children to touch.
Hollygo said...How utterly stupid and irresponsible of this woman, and anyone who by now doesn't know that bats are the number one carrier and offender in the spread of rabies. I have known this since I was a child myself, and I just don't understand why everyone doesn't. Don't you people read anything informative or substantive anymore?
Bruce Wayne said...Once when I was a kid i fell down this old well and there were all these bats and it scared me. Since then I've managed to use my fear of bats to instill fear in those that choose to prey on the weak.
hall monitor said...I always loved Show and Tell! "Show them a dead bat...Tell them they'll need rabies shots." Sounds great!

Jan Bay said...Those poor kids and that poor woman. She will forever be known as the "bat lady" and the sins of the mother will undoubtedly be passed down to her children. Perhaps she should have given the kids latex gloves rather than anti-bacterial wash. Oh right, some people are allergic to latex. ;-)
There is no really GOOD small animal to take to show and tell if you are worried about rabies, is there? Not long ago a kid we knew was bitten by a chipmunk and had to take rabies shots. Are there any animals that are guaranteed not be rabid or is it a good rule never to touch anything small and furry?
And didn't some kids get really sick last year from something they caught from animals at a petting zoo?
Jan from http://www.unique-baby-gear-ideas.com/
J said...Rabies has vector species (species of origin) and depends on what region you live in. Here in NJ that species is raccoons. Cats (feral) are second highest on the list since they will get into occassional scuffles with raccoons...then pass it amongst eachother in fighting. Foxes, groundhogs and VERY RARELY opposums are other species that may contract it thru contact with a raccoon or feral cat. Smaller animals, such as squirrels, chipmunks, mice etc....would be extremely rare to contract rabies...since the animal PASSING the virus is much much larger and more likely to kill the smaller animal. Most squirrels, chipmunks, etc are going to die if attacked by a raccoon or cat (if the sick raccoon/cat could even catch them). So I really don't worry about small rodents...the chances of coming across an infected one is very very slim.
Robert said...WHERE was the TEACHER???? I give NO blame to the parent..NONE!! This is ALL the Classroom Teacher's fault!!!!!!
lc said...Instead of coming up with different ways (like latex gloves) that the kids could have handled a RABID BAT, how about adults start thinking. Take the kids to the zoo or the science museum or buy a book. And, as for the mother not knowing whether or not it was rabid, it was a dead bat for Pete's sake! It is common knowledge that certain species including bats, skunks and racoons for a few examples, are highly exposed to rabies and should never be handled by humans. As a matter of fact, no wild animal should be handled by humans. Exceptions? Professionals who know the risks, and have the appropriate training and safety precautions and equipment. I don't think grade school children or soccer moms typically fit the bill.
Karen said...I think seeing the bat was ok, the problem came when the children were allowed to touch it. Had it been displayed in a clear box for the children to look at, instead of touch, there wouldn't have beena problem.
Shirley said...Why do some of these comments have a reply link and some don't? I've never been on a blog site so this is new to me. You can respond to my question at firstname.lastname@example.com if you want.
Henri said...Where was the teacher's oversight in this? She also should have known better.
They're Stupid said...Why are they taking 4 extra shots when the modern rabies series only requires 2? Are they getting rid of shouts that went out of date 8 yrs ago? Are they sensationalizing for the media? Is the media talking out of its hat again?
Or, are they just stupid?
I've handled SICK bats b4...and not gotten rabies......I think the kids are just suffering, from the schools "liability standpoint".
Shame on the school!
Robert Terry said...Excuse me jerlington, I am a nurse and there are a series of injections. And most people know from experience bats are highly susecptible to rabies. And the parents will probably sue the school and her. I would not not blame them!
Lisa said...Ok now people, you are more likely to get struck by lightening than catch rabies from a bat- so lets not go crazy and start killing bats. They serve a purpose. Educate yourselves before doing or saying something stupid. Nothing like Americans to wreak fear through the masses with their stories.
Lisa said...2 or 3 shots are normal for preventative purposes...for example for vets who might come in contact with rabid animals. Post-exposure for someone not previously vaccinated requires globulin (amount based on weight) and 5 vaccine shots.
j diamond said...the school people should have stopped the presentation of the bat
if they were worried about it, they would have stopped it before all the k ids touched it

- How to Read a Study Record
Liver tumors are hard to treat with radiation because the liver moves every time you breathe. The purpose of this study is to test a new and possibly more accurate way of treating liver tumors. When a person is asleep under anesthesia, it is safe to stop breathing motion for a while. The liver will stop moving and radiation can be given to a liver tumor. The study is being done to see if radiation can be given to liver tumors safely and accurately in this way.
Condition | Intervention |
Liver Cancer |
Procedure: image guidance with general anesthesia and suspended ventilation during treatment delivery |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | A Pilot Study to Assess the Feasibility of Using Anesthesia and Suspended Ventilation to Immobilize Liver Tumors During Radiotherapy |
- To assess safety & feasibility of single dose image-guided intensity modulated radio (IG-IMRT) using gen anesthesia with apneic oxygenation & controlled ventilation to temp suspend respiratory motion for tx of mets liver disease during localization & tx. [ Time Frame: conclusion of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Estimated Enrollment: | 26 |
Study Start Date: | October 2008 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | October 2015 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | October 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: treatment of metastatic liver disease
The intervention is the use of image guidance with general anesthesia and suspended ventilation during treatment delivery. This will allow precise localization and delivery of dose to the tumor.
Procedure: image guidance with general anesthesia and suspended ventilation during treatment delivery
All study patients will undergo marker implantation approximately 2 weeks prior to the PET-CT simulation and treatment planning. PET-CT is performed for treatment planning purposes. This part of the process is in routine clinical use at MSKCC. Three cone beam imaging scans and an IV contrast injection just prior to the first cone beam scan will be added to the standard procedure. The use of these two techniques is investigational. The treatment delivery will make use of general anesthesia and suspension of mechanical ventilation to render the patient apneic during both target localization and dose delivery. This will allow the dose to be delivered more precisely than the techniques currently in use, thus allowing the use of smaller treatment margins and reducing the high dose exposure of healthy liver tissue. These measures have not previously been used for treatment delivery. |

One name the country's dramatists, writers, filmmakers and students revere most after William Shakespeare is undoubtedly Russian playwright Anton Chekhov.
Like in any other part of the world, Chekhov's works enjoy tremendous appeal in India and the problems of human interaction he explores transcend national boundaries.
Chekhov, whose fans will celebrate his 150th birthday anniversary on Friday, is credited with forever changing the way people write stories and act in plays, and with conveying universal lessons about art to an international audience.
According to Professor Sankar Basu, Dean at Jawaharlal Nehru University's School of Language, Literature and Culture Studies, directors love to adapt Chekhov's plays as they are "not the usual stuff."
"These are no ordinary plays. Chekhov's plays give ample scope for directors for innovation. That is why they are often adapted in the country," Prof. Basu told PTI.
"According to Chekhov, in plays life should be reflected as it is. His plays are less dramatic in content.
There is an undercurrent in his plays. The audience has to be active and has to sense it to get a better understanding of his plays," says Prof. Basu, who teaches Russian language in the Centre of Russian Studies at JNU.
Theatre directors love to adapt Chekhov's plays. Says theatre artiste-director Mushtaq Kak, "I like Chekhov's plays because their themes are quite contemporary. They also have an emotional element attached to them."
Mr. Kak, who was the artistic director at the Sri Ram Centre here, has directed Chekhov's plays like "The Seagull" and "The Cherry Orchard" for its repertory company.
He also directed "Chekhov In My Life" which is based on Lydia Avilov's autobiographical account of the writer.
"In 'Chekhov In My Life', I try to explore the romantic angle of Chekhov and Lydia. The play is about Lydia's 10-year relationship with Chekhov," says Mr. Kak.
Chekhov was born in Taganrog on January 29, 1860. Son of a grocer (and grandson of a serf), he joined the Moscow Medical School and became a doctor. While practising medicine, he developed a great passion for writing. Later he began writing full-time. He died of pulmonary tuberculosis on July 15, 1904, in Germany.
George Bernard Shaw wrote about him, "In the galaxy of great European playwrights who were Ibsen's contemporaries, Chekhov shines as a star of the first magnitude, even beside Tolstoy and Turgenev."
A group of engineering students are making a film based on Chekhov's short story "The Bet."
"The shooting of the film is over and we are into the post—production stage," says Naman Maheshwari, the film's publicist. The film is being produced by EICOS Productions, formed by a group of students of Delhi University.
In memory of Chekhov, the Russian Centre of Science and Culture here is organising a literary function and mini performance on February 4 at Delhi University.
"The programme will include multimedia presentations on life and works of Chekhov, his plays and exhibition of his photographs and posters," says Yelena Shtapkina, programme coordinator at the Centre.

Chinese pirates are set to miff Microsoft by adapting the Open Source Ubuntu until it is the spit of Windows XP. Apparently the pirates had made a hacked version of Windows XP but for some reason Microsoft cracked down on it.
Now the answer to that is the Ylmf OS. If you have a look at the download page and are fluent in Chinese you will find an ISO that you can download. Unfortunately looking at the testing, and the screenshots, would suggest that the OS's GUI is purely Chinese too.
Mozilla won't make a 2009 deadline for releasing Firefox 3.6 and is giving itself more time to complete a major update, version 4.0.
The organization behind the open-source Web browser had predicted a final release of Firefox 3.6 in December 2009, but the Mozilla Web site now includes "ship Firefox 3.6" as a goal for the first quarter of 2010.
In addition, Firefox 4.0, which had been due in 2010, now is "aimed at late 2010 or early 2011," with a beta due in the summer of 2010, according to Mozilla.
The world's largest software company made the announcement shortly after a U.S. court of appeals upheld a $290 million jury verdict against it for infringing a patent held by a small Canadian software firm.
The court also affirmed an injunction that prevents Microsoft from selling versions of its Word program which contain the offending software, set to take effect January 11, 2010. Older versions of Word are not affected.
Microsoft said it is taking steps to remove the feature from Microsoft Word 2007 and Microsoft Office 2007 put on sale from that date.

Samsung's new Bada smartphone platform will support multiple Web browsers, social networking, and multitouch screens, Samsung executives explained at a launch event in London on Tuesday. But there are still many painful questions about this nascent smartphone OS - including whether it will ever come to U.S. phones.
"We are opening a new era of smartphones for everyone by deploying the Bada platform in a massive number of handsets," Samsung EVP Hosoo Lee said.
Today was Microsoft's final Patch Tuesday of 2009. Microsoft released a total of six new security bulletins, the most urgent one affecting a zero-day flaw in Internet Explorer for which exploit code already exists.
Barring any urgent security issues or exploits circulating in the wild to force an out-of-band update, the total number of security bulletins for 2009 is 74--a 5 percent drop from the 78 security bulletins released in 2008.

Owners' Reviews
1999 Acura RL Reviews and Owner Comments
1999 Acura RLdudley_2, Meridian, ID, April 13, 2009 12:07I bought this car used with about 108,000 miles. Very good ride, very quiet and solid feeling. The brakes are amazing - don't follow this car too close if it needs to stop - wow! It has only had to have the needed services and we took a 3000 mile trip and all works great and it burns absolutly no oil or has any leaks. Not bad for a 10 year old car.RookieFlag ThisLike | 1 person likes this1

They all came rolling into my email on Monday morning -- the recipes for quick bread contenders in our Sunday cooking throwdown. I opened each email like I was excitedly opening presents on Christmas morning. Our quick bread competition and demo this Sunday will be a photo finish - with lots of good eats!
I actually couldn't imagine a quick bread recipe that involves a blow torch until I read through the recipe from one of our competitors. That's right, at a certain point in the preparation a blow torch is pulled into service. Can't wait to try this at home!
Nostalgia alert: we're bringing back popcorn balls.
When I was a young 'un, Halloween signified the beginning of the kid calendar. It was a fun, escapist holiday -- and a great break from the routine of a new school year. Mom would counsel my brother and I on our costumes, and help us select a variety of retired clothes that we could use to make our costumes. One year my brother went as a pirate and I went as a devil. Mom found a set of red long underwear for me and Dad built me a makeshift pitchfork. It was the best Halloween ever.
Farm Fresh City cooking demos begin 7/9

Tentorial meningioma and painful tic convulsif. Case report. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 7714618 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
A case is presented of painful tic convulsif caused by a posterior fossa meningioma, with right trigeminal neuralgia and ipsilateral hemifacial spasm. Magnetic resonance images showed an ectatic right vertebral artery as a signal-void area in the right cerebellopontine angle. At operation the tentorial meningioma, which did not compress either the fifth or the seventh cranial nerves directly, was totally removed via a suboccipital craniectomy. The patient had complete postoperative relief from the trigeminal neuralgia and her hemifacial spasm improved markedly with decreased frequency. From a pathophysiological standpoint, the painful tic convulsif in this case was probably produced by the tumor compressing and displacing the brainstem directly, with secondary neurovascular compression of the fifth and seventh nerves (the so-called "remote effect"). |

What should I get my friend for her bachelorette party? Booze? I don't know if I have time to go to a "novelty" shop.
There's always time to go to a "novelty" shop Maybe a gift voucher for something she likes? Unless the booze is good, it could be seen as a bit tacky and/or she might have things going on in her life that make her not want to drink much/at all. Depends on how well you know her, I guess.
1) Bought a heart rate monitor. This thing is nifty! 2) Persuaded BF to go to the intermediate swing class next week. It's gonna be amazing! 3) Got to social dance with one of the instructors, who led me through all of this stuff I didn't know, and it was so fun! I love Lindy!
Random compliment out of nowhere...I just went to the cafeteria to get hot tea...one of the ladies in line at the checkout said to me, "your hair is gorgeous"...I've never seen her before...anyway, it was nice...I've been debating what to do with my hair as far as cut and color...I've had a number people tell me they like my natural hair color, which is brown, with grey (actually, it's just about white) especially around my face...the feeling seems to be it looks like natural highlights...I may just go with a new cut and forget the color...which would have been caramel highlights...I'm not young anyone and I've earned every one of those grey hairs...
lol She might have things going on that make her need a drink. Like planning a wedding in one month flat. Including arrangements for friends and family from France and Czech Republic. They are crazy. I know them well enough to ask the groom what the bride's wine preference is, and I better get her something, since I work and can't attend the wedding Eta: The bride and groom are crazy, not their friends and family
It is 56 degrees today! And it is 13th January in central New York! Who said that the 13th is an unlucky number?
Oh my gosh, P! Just searching through, looking for an old post, when I found this and thought of you. A friend was showing me this really cool site where you can buy not sure what to call it custom-made? non-commercial? Indie? Non-brand name. Nail polishes. Online. I think it might've been on Etsy, but I could be wrong. A lady has a business where, for $6 for a small bottle or $9 for a large bottle, you can buy the most unique nail polishes. Very cool. One was called something like cotton candy. It has a pastel pink background and multi-colored, sparkly glitter in it. And she had lots of others. I had no idea that such a thing exists. It made me think of you. I can just see you with unique and sparkly toes. *grin*
Ooooh...what's that sight / what's the name? I'm always interested in new nail polish! (I've currently got on stuff that's hot pink, with uber-pink sparklies in it, with some larger silver sparkly bits in. It's called Gettin' Miss Piggy With It. Hehehe! Here it is, although it's more pink/less red than it's showing up on my screen. http: // www . amazon.com/OPI-Lacquer-Muppets-Collection-Gettin/dp/B0060A2QXI)
I'll ask her. btw, when she and I were checking it out on Friday, she has bright silver glittery toenails. That reminded me of you, too.
Yup, that's me! I also wear a "dinosaur hat" in winter...including to work. Professional, schmofessional!

Parks and Recreation
Board agrees to add paths at five Champaign parks
CHAMPAIGN — The Champaign Park District plans on adding walking, running and biking paths in five of its parks within the next two years or so.
Following Wednesday's hourlong discussion of the need for paths at many of the district's parks, the park board reached a consensus on five priority projects.
Ribbon-cutting set for accessible playground at Eisner Park
CHAMPAIGN — The park district went "above and beyond" in building an accessible playground at Eisner Park, officials say, and it will provide a better range of activities for people with special needs.
Crews were putting the finishing touches on the playground on Friday, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sunday will mark its official opening.
Accessible playground to open in Champaign
A local advocate for people with disabilities said a new playground opening in Champaign this weekend is the next step in efforts to provide opportunities for children of all abilities.
Developmental Services Center CEO Dale Morrissey said the new Eisner Park playground, which has its grand opening Sunday, is very important in getting all children playing together.

Razed Gibson City site may become park -- or opportunity
GIBSON CITY — There's a gap in downtown Gibson City, and Randy Arends isn't quite sure how it will be filled.
Maybe a new business will elect to build where two dilapidated structures were torn down, or maybe Arends will develop the lots as an outdoor plaza where people can eat lunch, sip coffee and enjoy green space.
Urbana to dedicate first living legacy tree
The trees that tower over the streets and neighborhoods of Urbana can now be recognized, and one such tree will be celebrated Thursday.
The bur oak at 301 Griggs Street is estimated to be around 150 years old and will be recognized as Urbana's first living legacy tree at a ceremony Thursday at noon at the tree site.
Top of the morning, Oct. 6, 2014: From the archives
Bridges in rustic locations have an allure all their own.
Put a roof on them, paint a warning to "cross this bridge at a walk" at their entrance and surround them with trees changing to their fall wardrobe, and you've got a winner.
It's deer season at Forest Glen
WESTVILLE — As soon as Illinois' 16-week deer hunting archery season opened, Cory Roseman was up and at 'em Wednesday and Thursday, so he could climb into his tree stand before sunrise, prime time for activity.
The Gifford resident is eager for a reason.
Through a lottery, he was one of 64 hunters given one week to hunt in Forest Glen Nature Preserve, and this is Roseman's week.

Local athletes enjoy a big day at the KingCo track championships
May 17, 2011
It was by all means a championship day for several local athletes.
Liberty High School Patriots win track titles
May 12, 2011
NEW — 3 p.m. May 12, 2011
Two members of the Liberty High School track and field team captured individual titles Wednesday in the first day of the 3A/2A KingCo Conference Championship meet at Juanita High School.
Joshua Gordon won the boys long jump by leaping 22 feet. He was also the top qualifier in the preliminary 200-meter race with a time of 22.47 seconds.
Devin Bennett, of Liberty, was third in the long jump by going 20-8 1/2. He was also the top qualifier in the preliminary 400 race with a time of 52.06.
Liberty's Tyler Westendorf was fourth in the 1,600 in 4:29.52. Teammate Nick Knoblich took sixth in 4:35.20.
Kevin Ahrens, of Liberty, finished eighth in the shot put with a throw of 39-3.
In the girls competition, Liberty's Amy Broska won the 1,600 in 5:24.17. Teammate Megan Chucka was second in 5:28.91. Rachel Shaw, of Liberty, also placed seventh in the race with a time of 5:34.81.
Liberty boys, Issaquah girls take first in district track meet
May 10, 2011
The Liberty High School boys team and the Skyline girls team earned district bragging rights May 5, when each finished first at the annual Issaquah School District track and field meet in Issaquah's Gary Moore Stadium. Read more
Bragging rights will be on the line at track tri-meet
May 3, 2011
District bragging rights will be on the line May 5 when the Liberty, Skyline and Issaquah high school track and field teams tangle at 4 p.m. in a regular-season ending meet in Issaquah's Gary Moore Stadium.
Many athletes will use the meet to tune up for next week's KingCo Conference championships at Juanita High School. However, head coaches for the three schools will still put together competitive lineups for the Issaquah District Meet, which annually showcases some of the top athletes in the state.
Certainly one of the headliners at this year's meet will be Skyline's Kasen Williams, who has the state's best high jump at 6 feet, 11 inches and top triple jump at 48-3. Williams won the high jump and long jump April 30 at the Shoreline Invitational.
All three teams were in action last week and had some strong performances.
Liberty athletes set records at track meet
April 29, 2011
NEW — 12:45 p.m. April 29, 2011
Hamilton Noel and Madison Birdsall each set school records Thursday to help their Liberty High School track and field teams defeat host Interlake in a 3A/2A KingCo Conference meet.
Noel won the pole vault with a school-record effort of 13 feet, 6 inches. He also ran on the Patriots' winning 4×400-meter relay. Nick Knoblich, Joseph Bergmann and Hiron Redmon were other members of the relay.
The Liberty boys defeated Interlake 85-56.
Redmon won the 800. Devin Bennett captured three events for the Patriots. He won the high jump by going 6-3. He also won the long jump by going 19 feet, 1/4 inch, and took the triple jump by going 40 feet, 7 1/4 inches.
Birdsall won the 400 in a school-record time of 58.30. She also ran on the Patriots' winning 4×200 relay and 4×400 relay. Delane Agnew, Elizabeth Ryker and Stacy Christensen were other members of the 4×200 relay. Ryker, Michaela Chucka and Agnew were other members of the 4×400 relay.
Liberty High School track team excels at meet
April 27, 2011
NEW — 11:45 a.m. April 26, 2011
After spending much of the spring practicing and competing in inclement weather, the Liberty High School track team got a treat April 23, when the Patriots competed in the Viking Relays at Tacoma's Curtis High School.
There was no rain. After being a no-show for most of the track season, El Sol finally appeared.
The Liberty boys made the most of the pleasant spring day as they finished first in the team standings. Liberty totaled 57.95 points to top second-place King's, which had 55.9 points. The Patriots' girls team also fared well, placing third.
"It proved to be a wonderful meet. It wasn't windy. It was just a gorgeous day. We actually had some sunburns," Liberty coach Michael Smith said.
Skyline High School girls beat Eastlake, Garfield
April 15, 2011
NEW — 2 p.m. April 15, 2011
Elena Frerker and Jordan Branch each won two events Thursday as they led the Skyline High School girls track team to 4A KingCo Conference victories against Eastlake and Garfield.
Skyline won the three-way meet with 73 points. Eastlake was second with 68 points and Garfield was third with 35.
Frerker won the discus and the javelin.
Branch captured the 1,600 and the 3,200. She also ran of the Spartans' winning 4×400 relay. Erin Bryar, Caitlin McIlwain and Maddi Hutson were other members of the relay.
The Skyline boys finished second to Garfield, which totaled 81 points. Skyline had 69 points and Eastlake had 31.
Patriots trample Beavers in season's second dual meet victory
April 5, 2011
The Liberty High School track and field program headed for this week's spring break feeling rather good about the season. Both the boys and girls teams had easily won their first two dual meets of the season and captured team titles at the Liberty Invitational.
Issaquah girls track team charges past Roosevelt
April 1, 2011
NEW — 3 p.m. April 1, 2011
It's getting to be an old routine for Issaquah High School's Eva Perry.
She broke her own school record in the pole vault for the fourth time Thursday in a 4A KingCo Conference meet at Roosevelt. Perry went 12-feet, which currently ranks second in the state and first in the conference.
Issaquah's McKenna Hogan came close to a school record in the long jump, leaping 17 feet, 3 1/2 inches. She came within 3/4 of an inch of the school record. It was also the longest jump by an Issaquah girl in 36 years.
Both Perry and Hogan finished first in the events. In addition, Haley Jacobson had a pair of first places as the Eagles ran past Roosevelt 89-52.
Jacobson won the 100 meters in 12.9 seconds and the 200 in 26.5. She anchored Issaquah's winning 4×200 and 4×400 relays. Teammates Lauren Bruner and Katie Zhong each had two first places, too. Bruner won the 100 hurdles and the 300 hurdles. Zhong captured the discus and javelin.
Skyline races to win first meet of the year
March 29, 2011
Skyline High School senior Kyle Branch didn't even look like he was trying as he rounded the final curve on his way to a win in the 1,600-meter race against Woodinville.
The standout distance runner finished way ahead of the competition, but afterward said he was actually trying to conserve energy for his next events, the 3,200 and the 4×400-meter relay.
"It was a nice, relaxed pace," he said.
He finished in 4 minutes, 47.2 seconds.
His wins in the 1,600 and 3,200 (10:04.1) helped the Skyline boys to an 82-55 season-opening 4A KingCo Conference win March 24 against the Falcons. The Skyline girls also beat Woodinville, 88-62, despite lacking points from key returning players like high jumper Sydne Tingey, who was out with an injury.

WPSDTV ran a story pointing out a small irony that came out of a speech given by US Senator Barack Obama on Monday in Metropolis, IL. After encouraging the crowd to give up their SUVs for hybrid cars, he left in a GM Envoy. The Envoy is rated at 15 mpg.
Obamas press secretary asked WPSDTV to correct their story by claiming Obamas vehicle was flex fuel capable (Runs on E85. E85 gasoline is 85% ethanol and 15% unleaded).
There are two problems with that statement. One, Obama did not get into the vehicle that was flex fuel capable. It seems he jumped into a staffers vehicle. Second, and this is the biggest problem when considering flex fuel cars, its unlikely the gas in the car was E85. There are very few flex fuel pumps in the US, nevermind Illinois. So, chances are the fuel in the tank of the flex fuel capable vehicle was just normal gasoline.
Vietor withdrew his demand for a correction on the basis of the first issue.
A similar incident occured back in April. Senators held a group rally to protest high gas prices at a local gas station (one block away from the Senate). One Senator then jumped into a Chrysler LHS (18 mpg) while another jumped into a Hyundai Elantra for the return trip.

- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

On Tuesday April 15 at 3:42AM Eastern Time a full moon and lunar eclipse will occur at 25 deg Libra. This is a time of release especially if this aspects your chart. With the moon being in Libra our emotions can be expresses in a logical and analytical way, and since Libra is about relationships there could be turmoil in our personal relationships. If there are unresolved feelings in your relationships there is strong potential that they will be expressed.
When looking at the astrology chart for Detroit Michigan using the February 1, 1802 charter date we find full moon does not aspect anything. What that means is that there will not be any new major emotional issues coming to the surface in the city on this day; however, if it aspects anything in anyone's personal chart they may be affected.
