JFrame issues
Hi guys,
I am new to Java and I am trying to build a window-based application.
I have some idea of how to do this, however I have run into a few problems. Here is the frame section of my code, below that I will post my concerns:
//Method that creates a blank frame
public static void Form()
//Code that creates a blank frame
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Wages");
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOS E);
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
JTextArea jat = new JTextArea("Test",10,20);
JLabel label1 = new JLabel("Label 1");
JButton button1 = new JButton("Button 1");
//Main method
public static void main(String[] args)throws FileNotFoundException
/*I use a main method because the frame is
* not the only method that I am using
Core issues:
1. When I run the program, I have to resize (either maximize or minimize) the window in order for it to show the contents (i.e. the text area, button, and the label).
2. Whenever I do try to change the location of any of my panel items (eg. jat.setLocation(20, 20);), they still appear in the same location as if I did not set the location to begin with.
If any of my declarations or method uses seem elementary, remember that I am still a newbie.
I would appreciate any help that you all can offer.

I should have new tires for it in a couple days.
What I am looking for is any suggestion on gearing this bike. I have to buy chain and sprockets so I only want to buy one set.
This wil be my primary form of transportation to work so it will see some highway riding. Mostly it will be rode to work and some forest service roads.
I have had bikes from a z50 to a kz1100 but this is my first XT.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
been riding my 79 on streets. i chose 42/16 gearing, stock is 44/16
its still pretty short, dont know if you can fit a 17, but if possible, thats the ticket. mine will run at 65+ without working too hard, but feels better under that. another tip, move the forks up (drop the front of the bike) for better steering. i'll be making mine back into an enduro this summer, miss the trails

Crossed Wires
Technique and technology don't mix at Maya Beiser performance
By Scott MacClelland
Cellist Maya Beiser, who performed Sunday, Jan. 11, at UC-Santa Cruz, enjoys an enviable position in the world of new classical music: too few such specialists; too much new music. Yo Yo Ma, also to be counted a new music aficionado, has plenty on his plate. Most other prominent cellists seem content with rehashing the standard and familiar repertory.
Whether Beiser, an erstwhile member of New York's avant-garde Bang on a Can All Stars, can survive as a solo artist is not certain. But she certainly has attracted some of the best and brightest composing talent currently available. Her short program, titled after its longest piece, David Lang's World to Come, contained an important commissioned work by Steve Reich and a heartfelt, even inspired, piece by Osvaldo Golijov, the Argentinian composer whose St. Mark Passion of 2000 has attracted international success and acclaim. Arvo Pärt's "greatest hit," Fratres, opened the program, and an imaginative work by Louis Andriessen opened the second half.
On the evidence of Sunday evening, Beiser, who grew up on an Israeli kibbutz and studied with Aldo Parisot, Alexander Schneider and Isaac Stern, is neither a brilliant performer nor a compelling artistic personality. These apparent limitations she skillfully masked behind amplification, electronically enhanced reverberation, multiple layers of herself previously recorded, and fast-moving visual images projected large on the wall behind her. In most cases, her actual, live playing was, in terms of cello technique, pretty simple, and not flawless.
The Pärt, whose arranged versions for all manner of instrumentation are now running a close second to the much-molested Pictures at an Exhibition, opened with Beiser playing harmonics live over prerecorded tracks that were notably more room-filling through the hall's sound system. (Harmonics, achieved by lightly touching the strings at crucial "nodes," are tough to control anyway, and this was no exception.)
Andriessen's La Voce, based on a poem by Cesare Pavese (and played before a static projection of an empty room), called for Beiser to recite the Italian verses and vocalize as she variously stroked and hammered her instrument. At times the score called for her to silently bow the air above the strings. In the 25-minute Lang, the impression was one of tape loops being created onstage, then played back as Beiser added a new voice in counterpoint. The original material consisted of a rising arpeggio ostinato, plus much obsessing on single tones. Moreover, Beiser seemed confused as to when to join the recorded material, trying to jump in two or three times before she actually put bow to string. The work gave little to engage the intellect, but rather depended heavily on its amplified, atmospheric sonorities. Strange choice for the above reasons, but evidently popular with foundations; no fewer than seven institutions, including UC-Santa Cruz, contributed funds to the commission.

Cape Cod's 'biggest summer party' opens today
Written by Alan W. Petrucelli
July 20, 2007
Barbara Streisand, in one of her earlier and better recordings, asked if she'd stayed too long at the fair.
Stay too long? Obviously she was not musically wondering about the Barnstable County Fair.
Stay too long? How could it be, when the Barnstable County Fair is chockfull of more thrills and spills, chills and frills than there were at Paris Hilton's trial?
Stay too long? How could it be, when there's enough food to satisfy even the most rotund gastric bypass reject?
Stay too long? How could it be, where for the mere price of admission, you can sit on the lawn and listen to voices of those who were once Big and those who wish they weren't so small?
Stay too long? It's more like not staying long enough.
The fun and festivities, music and midway memories begin today, when the gates at the Barnstable Fair Grounds off Route 151 in Falmouth open at 11 a.m.
"Bring the whole family -- it's Cape Cod's biggest summer party," coos BCF General Manager Wendy Brown.
With the exception of the Kennedy clan, it's also the oldest Cape icon, yet for some quixotic reason, the press material leave out the fact that the fair -- produced annually by the non-profit Barnstable County Agricultural Society that awards $35,000 in student scholarships each year -- has been in operation since 1884.
Opening day will commemorate the Fab Four with a sound-alike extravaganza -- faster than you can say, "Yoko? Oh, no!" the band Strawberry Fields will take to the Main Stage at 7 p.m, followed by what Brown describes as "a giant fireworks display."
If this year's fair is as big as previous ones, more than 80,000 people will be walking through the turnstiles for, according to Brown, "a chance to get up close and personal with animals, enjoy a world of fun. foods and thrill to midway rides and games of chance. There will be dozens of different exhibits and demonstrations and new sights to see every day -- we've added new rides and three roller coasters."
("Wristband Days," to be held today, July 23 and 27, allow fairgoers the chance to regurgitate all that cotton candy and corn dogs on unlimited rides for a mere $15.)
Some will go to witness what's billed as the "World's Largest Demolition Derby," some for the line-up of entertainment including Starship (of sorts; no Grace Slick or Marty Balin, but at least Mickey Thomas is "Somebody to Love"), Disney's hip-hop "trashcan drumming" Imagination Movers (described by their PR people as "Beastie Boys meet Mr. Rogers" and "Hot Chili Peppers meet Captain Kangaroo") on July 22 and American Idol's William Joel "Bucky" Covington, who closes the fair Saturday, July 28.
Our $10 admission fee is on the July 27 appearance of the Oak Ridge Boys, a gospel-tinged gig sandwiched between their appearances at Wisconsin's Fond du Lac County Fair and Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Va.
"After all these years together, the passion has never left," said Boy William Lee Golden. "We are not willing to rest on our laurels. That gets boring. We challenge ourselves to do something better than the last time we did it. We still love performing, still love our fans. The crowds at county fairs are America at its best -- we look forward to appearing on ol' Cape Cod. Come on down!"
And stay. Long.
The fair is open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Monday to Thursday from 4 to 10 p.m. The midway is open every evening until 11:30 pm. Admission is $10; $8 for seniors and those with a military ID. Multi-day and family discount passes are available, and those 12 and younger are admitted free with a paying adult. For more information, go to www.BarnstableCountyFair.org or call 508-563-3200.

Motion to Appear IFP Granted
In Hafed v. Fed'l. Bureau of Prisons, No. 09-1090, a prisoner's appeal from the dismissal of his action for failure to appear for a deposition, the court granted plaintiff's motion to appear in forma pauperis where a prisoner must have alleged an imminent danger at the time he filed his complaint under the in forma pauperis statute.
As the court wrote: "Appellant Shaaban Shaaban Hafed is a federal prisoner appearing in this court pro se, and seeking to proceed in forma pauperis (ifp). These appeals present us with the opportunity to clarify what counts as a "strike" under the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA) for purposes of future ifp eligibility, and when, in the sequence of litigation, that the strike can be counted. In Jennings, we addressed dismissals under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B), but did not decide whether a district court's dismissal subsequent to screening under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A should count as a strike."

American Living Line to End at JCP
February 24, 2012
-- Home Textiles Today,Ralph Lauren's president said last week the company and JCPenney have decided to drop the exclusive American Living line of home, apparel and accessories goods - which, when it launched at JCP in 2008 marked the retailer's single largest brand introduction in history.
The arrangement's five-year term is drawing to an end, Roger Farah said during Ralph Lauren's quarterly conference call. "We've left the door open for future dialogue and relationships."
In addition, "...with Chaps being the No. 1 brand at Kohl's, we think we have that channel well covered."

BANGKOK, Thailand — Ford Motor Company Executive Chairman, Bill Ford, shared his vision on urban mobility during a visit to Thailand last week, addressing a group of 300 guests in Bangkok that included business leaders, representatives from the U.S. Embassy and Thai government, and media, on the looming concerns of 'global gridlock' in cities around the world.
Before giving the address at a special luncheon organized by the American Chamber of Commerce in Thailand, Mr. Ford had an opportunity to meet privately with a small group of representatives from the Thailand-branch of the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Association, as well as student-leaders from several of Thailand's top universities.

29 year old woman | Fairfield, OH, USA | Seeking men 25-34 within 50 miles of West Chester, OH
Dance in the kitchen. Wrestle on the couch.
I love life and doing and trying things that make me and others I love happy. I have an outgoing personality and I always try to make the best of any situation. I'm genuine, compassionate, loyal and usually very happy, which often shines through even on rough days. I'm a kid at heart, but I'm also a dedicated, hard working, and sensitive woman. I live my life with integrity and values. As a teacher, my schedule is pretty busy during the school year, but I will always make time to spend with friends and family, who are a huge part of my life. I teach high school English and I love what I do! I also coach Drama Club, work out 5 to 6 days a week lifting or cardio, and enjoy baking and cooking, especially with others. I love the outdoors, traveling, and experiencing new places, but I also enjoy a relaxing evening at home, having a nice meal, and watching a movie or tv on the couch. I'm a bit of a nerd and I love video games and board games. My hair color changes on a seasonal basis and I have nothing against tasteful tattoos, as I have one of my own. The most important thing I am looking for in a man is a strong and stable character. I am looking for someone who is caring, compassionate, and loyal, who values honesty and openness. I want a partner who is motivated to work hard in his career, relationships, and health, but is also dependable and will put others first. I also appreciate a fun enthusiasm for life and a happy demeanor! If you can dance with me in the kitchen, wrestle on the couch, and recommend new adventures, we're good to go. Above all I'm looking for a man who will never lie to me...unless it's to surprise me! I am an edgy good girl with a big heart hoping to meet someone special, develop a meaningful relationship, and have fun together!

Miami University, Oxford, OH
I can't live without family and friends, new adventures and being active, great food, and a camera. Favorite things include bonfires, roasted marshmallows, autumn, walks in the park, date night, achieving goals, laughter, and color.
A fun evening cooking out with family/friends. I love video games and board games, camping, dinner and a movie/the theater, a bbq, a ball game, or an amusement park. I love exploring museums or the zoo, and working out at the gym or taking a class
I read mostly young adult novels to recommend for my students. My last read was "The Red Pyramid" about ancient Egypt and magic brought into the 21st century. Currently reading Game of Thrones...not for the students lol

Comment on this storyA few months before their wedding, David Prior (not his real name) told his fiancée Sue his biggest secret. Although the couple had a good sex life, and were committed to a future together, he was addicted to visiting prostitutes.
Perhaps surprisingly, the wedding went ahead. "I was horribly shocked, but I thought that with some therapy he'd get over it," says Sue, 42. Fifteen years and two children later, the couple are still together – but Prior's sex addiction is still with him. "I don't think we could possibly have imagined that it would be as long-term, or as difficult as it has been," says Sue.
David and Sue are clients of a sex psychotherapist, Paula Hall, who last month published the UK's first comprehensive guide to sex addiction – she defines it as "a pattern of out-of-control sexual behaviour that causes problems in someone's life".
"I run training sessions on understanding sex addiction, and four years ago I might have been training six therapists a year," she says. "Now I'm doing 20 sessions annually, with an average of 30 therapists at each. And when you ask them why they're here, they all give the same answer: more and more clients are presenting with sex addiction."
No one understands what the rise in sex addiction is entirely about, but internet porn, Hall says, has got to be part of it. "Porn is like the gateway drug. Just as with cannabis and cocaine, many people will use the gateway drug and never become addicted; but others most definitely will. And unlike drugs or alcohol, users don't even realise they're dealing with something that might prove to be addictive."
In researching her book, Hall surveyed 350 people who described themselves as addicted to sex, 25 percent of whom were women.
The biggest problem for sex addicts, Hall says, is that it's seen as a moral deficiency rather than a mental illness. "In my survey I asked people what the worst consequence of their addiction was, and the answers were truly terrible.
"People had lost their families, they'd lost their homes and gone bankrupt, they were depressed, even suicidal, and they felt unable to embark on a proper relationship."
Of the people Hall surveyed, 40 percent were under 16 and nearly 10 percent were under 10 when their problems started.
For Prior, though, the problem started later: he was in his mid-twenties when he started to visit prostitutes. "I was in a very unhappy relationship, and I now realise that was echoing the difficult relationship I'd had with my mother," he says. "Seeing a prostitute became a way of escape; and even when I met Sue and started what became a good relationship with her, I still needed the fix of seeing sex workers.
"The strange thing was, and is, that it's never been about fun or enjoyment: the thing I craved, and still do crave, is the feeling of shame. One of the biggest ironies about sex addiction is that it's only marginally about sex; like all addicts, what it's really about is being unable to process or deal with something difficult in your life, whether it's unhappiness, boredom or frustration."
A big breakthrough for many, says Hall – who chairs the Association for the Treatment of Sex Addiction and Compulsivity – is realising they're not alone. "Many people with this problem believe they're the only one with it – so finding out that there are good people out there struggling in exactly the same way really boosts their self-esteem," she says.
Therapy focuses on understanding what addicts are anaesthetising themselves against, and finding healthy ways to meet their needs.
"I advise clients to block adult content on the internet, and to avoid people or places that trigger their need for sex," Hall says. – Foreign Service

In a gruesome incident, a middle aged woman was axed to death allegedly by her husband at Rajivnagar here in the wee hours of Monday.
The deceased was identified as M Yellamma, 50, a resident of Rajivnagar in the town.
According to sources, M Shankar, a fisherman, allegedly returned home in a drunken condition on Sunday night. He reportedly picked up an argument with his wife Yellamma when she refused to give him money for liquor. Infuriated over denial of money, Shankar, a few hours later, allegedly hacked Yellamma with an axe while she was fast asleep . The family members of the deceased noticed her body lying in a pool of blood in the wee hours of the day and passed on the information to the local police.
The three-town police registered a case and took up investigation.

Theater Review
By Millie
El Niño isn't the only natural disaster to hit San Francisco this month. Check out the New Conservatory Theater Center's production of David Mauriello's insipid drama Come in From the Rain.
Part of NCTCs Pride Season, this show is about the search for intimacy between an uptight banker and a wayward street hustler. Will this mismatched couple somehow find what they're looking for in one another's embrace? Will the prissy banker finally admit that he's gay? Will the street hustler stop smoking pot and clean up his act? Will they prance around naked for no apparent reason? Guess. The whole thing could've been wrapped up in about 20 minutes.
Of course, we would've miss all the stuff about broken homes and life on the street and, of course, gay bashing. Just think of one of those overly earnest after-school specials in the mid-'80s.
Bill Allen (Tom, the hustler) and Markham Miller (Michael, the banker) make the best of a ridiculous script. Choice lines include "When there's hot apple pie on the table and you're told it's for the church supper, you don't touch it. So you wait. And you go on waiting for the rest of your life!" (Huh?)
Miller has some funny moments when he gets detailed and prissy about coffee. Allen isn't totally unappealing. (However, he needs to pull up his jeans.) Director Ed Decker ensures lots of crotch shots and shaved asses. I think the guy in back of me was jerking off. Tits are out. Cocks are in. "Cock and balls, cock and balls," says the hustler in a particularly banal come-on to the virgin banker. It could be the slogan of the NCTC's season. It's not just boring. It's insulting.

January 31, 2011 Climber makes wrong turn, falls 1,000 feet, then reads map |
I caught the end of "Crank" on TV over the weekend and wondered how the viewer was supposed to believe the final scene, when Jason Statham falls seemingly incessantly from the Los Angeles sky and then bounces off a sedan without his body liquidating. But then I remembered having seen and read about those rare stories in which a skydiver survived a massive chute-less landing. Like this one last year. And then I read about this Scottish climber yesterday. He fell off a 1,000-foot cliff and barely showed any bruises. Rescuers found him at the bottom of the cliff reading a map. From the Daily Record: If he broke his back in multiple places, that sounds like compression fractures. I suffered one in high school, along with a broken pelvis, after falling about 20 feet into a concrete sewage culvert. The pelvis hurt much, much more. I thought at the time—and I still do—that but for the grace of God I should have died. The paramedics did too. I wonder what Adam Potter is thinking. |

In the small French village of Lansquenet where life has remained the same for 100 years, the wind of change is about to sweep through it, altering it forever. Free-spirited wanderer, Vianne Rocher has arrived with her daughter to set up a chocolaterie during the Lenten period of abstinence. Her arrival is frowned upon by some locals but to others, her presence is life-changing. Somehow, almost magically, her delectable treats are tantalising more than just tastebuds - they are curing lost hopes, awakening unexpected passions and fulfilling unspoken desires. From acclaimed film-maker Lasse Hallstrom (THE CIDER HOUSE RULES, MY LIFE AS A DOG) comes the most sweetly surprising film of the year. Nominated for 5 Academy Awards, and starring Juliette Binoche (The English Patient), Judi Dench (Shakespeare in Love) and Johnny Depp (Blow), CHOCOLAT is the most delicious comic fable - a celebration of difference and a feast for the senses.

The varsity boys bowling team kicked off its season with a convincing win over Russia Saturday, 2519-1834.
This season's boys squad features many returning varsity players from last year, and varsity coach Jim Kaeck said the team should be able to build on last year's state qualifying squad.
Saturday's match was a dissappointment in one regard for Kaeck, in that the lane conditions were poor, and the balls were hooking way too much.
The Maroon boys CYO team took to the court Sunday evening and defeated NorthStar 59-47 in their first basketball game of the season.
Leading scorer for the Maroon squad was Austin Scott, who netted 15 points on the evening.
The match was fairly even in the first quarter, with both teams knotted at 15 a piece, but the second quarter belonged to the Maroon team.
Allowing just 6 points in the second quarter to the NorthStar squad, the defense was stifling.

- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to determine if adding SOM230 LAR to bortezomib and dexamethasone is better than bortezomib and dexamethasone alone and if it should be investigated further.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Multiple Myeloma in Relapse Multiple Myeloma |
Drug: SOM230 Drug: Bortezomib Drug: Dexamethasone |
Phase 2 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Phase II Study of SOM230 LAR in Combination With Bortezomib and Dexamethasone in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Multiple Myeloma |
- Objective tumor response [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Responses (CR and PR) and incidence of SD will be tabulated by disease diagnosis. All responses will be reported. Response rate among patients with measurable disease will be summarized by exact binomial confidence intervals.
- progression-free survival [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The progression free survival function will be estimated by means of the product limit (Kaplan-Meier) esitmator with 95% confidence interval. Median PFS will be estimated from the survival function.
- Toxicities associated with this investigational combination [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Type, incidence severity (NCI-CTCAE grade), timing, relatedness of AE and laboratory abnormalities will be tabulated, with 95% confidence intervals, as appropriate.
- Effects of SOM230 LAR on PI3K/MAPK pathway [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Serum bone resorption markers, calcium, MIP-1alpha, TRACP-5b, serum (NTx), and serum C-terminal telopeptide (CTx) will be compared to circulating IGF-1 graphically (by scatterplots) and by Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients, depending on the graphical assessment.
- Effect of bortezomib and SOM230 LAR on RANKL production and OCL formation [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Serum bone resorption markers will be measured during pretreatment and on day 1 of each cycle. Their change over time will be characterized by estimates derived from a mixed effects ANOVA model.
- IGF-1 inhibition and monitor circulating IGF-1 [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To analyze whether bortezomib/SOM230 LAR treatment can restore the balance between OCL and osteoblast activity, bone marrow samples will be obtained before treatment and during treatment (day 11 of cycle 2) for OCL formation assays. Mean change over time will be estimated with 95% confidence intervals, and the null hypothesis of no change tested with a paired-comparison t-test
- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: 5-10 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed symptomatic MM, Salmon-Durie Stage II or III, International Staging System II or III, or fulfill the CRAB criteria (see Appendix A, B). Patients should have previously been treated with at least one cycle of bortezomib, after which the patient has shown progressive or refractory disease. Finally, patients must meet at least one of the following parameters of measurable disease:
- Bone marrow plasmacytosis with> 10% plasma cells, or sheets of plasma cells, or biopsy proven plasmacytoma which must be obtained within 6 weeks prior to registration.
- Measurable levels of monoclonal protein (M-protein): ≥ 1 g/dL on serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP) or ≥ 200 mg of monoclonal light chain on a 24 hour urine protein electrophoresis (UPEP) or involved FLC ≥ mg/dL (≥ 100 mg/L) which must be obtained within 4 weeks prior to registration.
- Serum and urine M-protein levels should be determined by electrophoresis rather than by quantitative immunoglobulin (Ig) measurement. Exceptions are made in cases in which the M-spike value may be deemed to be unreliable ( e.g. co-migrating M-spike). In these cases, quantitative Ig should be used. To assess response and progression, however, SPEP values should only be compared to SPEP values and quantitative Ig values only to quantitative Ig values.
- Patients must have received at least two prior anti-MM treatments. The prior treatments must include at least one IMiD (thalidomide or lenalidomide) and bortezomib. If patients are unable to tolerate thalidomide or lenalidomide they can be included without prior IMiD treatment. Patients may be included if they did not experience grade III neuropathy while on bortezomib. Patients may have previously received autologous or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
- Minimum of four weeks since any major surgery, completion of radiation, or completion of all prior systemic anticancer therapy. Exception: e.g. kyphoplasty, vertebroplasty, local radiation therapy for symptomatic bone lesions (e.g., uncontrolled pain or high risk of pathologic fracture).
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Life expectancy of greater than 12 weeks.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2 (Karnofsky ≥ 60%; see Appendix B).
Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below, obtained within 4 weeks prior to registration:
- Hgb > 9 g/dL (which may be supported by transfusion or growth factors)
- Absolute neutrophil count > 1000 x 10-9/L
- Platelets ≥ 50,000 x 10-9/L
- PT/PTT < 1.5 x upper limits of normal (ULN)
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x (ULN)
- Hepatic:
Serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 ULN
Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase
- 3 × ULN without liver metastases
5 × ULN if documented liver infiltration
- Renal:
Calculated creatinine clearance ≥40 ml/min according to the formula in Appendix D
- Cholesterol* ≤ 300 mg/dL
- Triglycerides (fasting)* ≤ 2.5 x ULN
- Fasting plasma glucose (FPG)** < 1.5X ULN for FPG or HbA1c ≤ 8% *In case one or both of these thresholds are exceeded, the patient can only be included after initiation of appropriate lipid lowering medication.
At the principle investigator's discretion, non-eligible patients can be re-screened after adequate medical therapy has been instituted.
- Patients must not be pregnant or breast feeding and must have a negative pregnancy test within 14 days of the administration of the first study treatment. Further, all women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must agree to use a medically effective contraception method throughout the treatment period and avoid conception while participating in this study. Women must not be lactating. Post menopausal patients and patients who had a bilateral oophorectomy need not take a pregnancy test.

This is a version of Super Mario PRG I made, It has a different style from others.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
It was certainly a much diffrent style then others.It was very unique and sounds perfect.Man,SMRPG was such a great game...now that I think of if,Geno could have been a great addition to brawl.Anyways,good luck in future submissions.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
You should do a Elavator version of this theme!
Hmm... not that bad of an idea but for some reason the songs is more of an upbeat one to me, but ill look into what i can do with it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
they really should make another game with Geno he rocks!!
Man I really wished that they did, but you know square they are really tight with their characters. I only wished that they had put aside their differences and let geno be in brawl.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
i dont care
i dont care what anybody says. this is really good. i like every geno maze song. :D
As do I and every super mario rpg fan my friend, it was one of those songs that would acually grow on you.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
reminds me of the Lost Woods from Zelda...
nice job on it.
Thanks, both songs are great. It was somthing done long ago and im glad ppl enjoy it.

Driving through 5 states w/ Pit Bull and not sure of local laws
Hey all! New to this site, so I apologize if I'm repeating a question that's already been answered. We're moving from Arizona to Illinois, and we're driving there with our 2 cats and female pit bull. I have looked up BSL info for the states on the following site, http://www.understand-a-bull.com/BSL...SLocations.htm, but will we be fined because we're just driving through a city that bans or restricts pit bulls? She's fixed, current on all vaccines, but does anyone know if we could still be "in trouble" by just her presence? I can't seem to find the right site online for this info. Thanks for the advice, fellow pit bull lovers!
I wondered about this too... I can't imagine driving through could be illegal but I look forward to seeing what responses you get.
Well, whenever you travel with an animal you should have it UTD on all the vaccinations and have the papers proving it.
As far as going through BSL infested areas, first I would avoid it at all costs, if you have to go through the area just limit your stops to a potty break, and make sure your dog is on the leash and controlled.
Personally, I wouldn't risk it. Some areas have the law worded so that anyone even passing through can have their dog confiscated and some areas don't. Unless you are willing to look up the ordinance for each town/city/county you are passing through just avoid the places with BSL altogether.

Stop and potty the dog in an out-of-the-way place just before a populated area. Then put the dog in a crate for your trip through the city and don't speed.
If you are going to stop and eat (or potty yourself!), have the dog in crate before you get out of the car and do not take the dog out before you go inside.
In other words, don't take dog out when there are people around.
Ohio is known for BSL laws and as far as I know as long as the dog doesn't not reside in the city then the dog should be fine. I go to Cincinnati with Mater a lot and Cincinnati has BSL.
Wow! Thanks everyone for your responses. I'm glad I found this site; we really love our little girl, and it's great to find a place where everyone has the same love for their pit bulls. I'm going to research further based off of where we'll p$#@! through and try to stay under the radar...but, this BSL is ridiculous; I can't believe I have to add this to my list of concerns for driving across country! Fix the bad owners! Have a good night, everyone!

great advice i moved from arizona to oklahoma and did the same bsl search as u and another good site to visit is dogfriendly.com u can map out your trip and it will tell u dogfriendly rest stops and restrants without door padios to eat they alsotryto mention if there is any bsl laws.
Some BSL locations have laws that state your dog could be taken, you fined etc if passing through without first letting the police know that youre passing through. like someone else said, just dont get yourself into a situation where youll get pulled over.

The biggest danger is rest stops in BSL areas like Colorado and Ohio. There are signs saying "picnic areas" where very few people stop because there are no bathrooms for humans. They would be your best bet if driving through a BSL area. But of course the best solution is plan your trips so that you don't go through Colorado, Ohio and other BSL states.
Good luck with your travels.
I would think that traveling with your dog would fall under that act that is federal that makes it illegal to charge out of state residents with state only traffic laws, like how a person from KY does not need a license plate on a trailer (I think I am right on the state) and if they go into IN they cannot be charged for not having a license plate on that trailer. That law should cover passing through a state I am sure and protect your animals, but I would not stop and let the animal out to go potty in a BSL area because then they might be able to say you were not passing through you were stopped.
I'm from Ohio and the state doesn't care if you are passing through. I was actually going to be taking Mater to a protection club in Cincinnati that has BSL and as long as the dog doesn't reside in the city he is protected.

Coming from AZ to IL. I can tell you that you will be ok in TX, KS, MO and IL. Colorado could be an issue for you if you are coming that way.
Be sure you keep your vaccination paperwork handy.
Is your plan to go from AZ through NM or CO into KS or TX?
As much as I hate this site, it is useful for this situation:
d o g s b i t e -dot- o r g (remove the spaces and dashes)
Under their tab for legislation, you can search by state and there are links to the actual municipal codes so you can see specifically what the wording of the ordinances are. Some places have outright breed bans whereas some places have regulations like mandatory S/N or muzzling, etc.
I too looked on understand-a-bull.com but it does not further link or always specify nature of BSL in particular areas.
We recently took a road trip and were in WA which is dotted with BSL. I just made sure that if we passed through a particular city with BSL, we did not take our dog out of the car. We also kept her vet records and licensing info in a binder with us in the car at all times.

1898-03-04 (118lbs) Dave Sullivan w rsc 9 (20) Patsy Broderick, Waverley AC, Yonkers, New York, USA. Referee: Frank Abrahall. Billed for the American 118lbs title with both men dead on the weight, the fight saw plenty of action before Sullivan took over in the eighth after playing on Broderick's body. Going back to his corner in a groggy fashion things did not get any easier in the ninth, and following a series of jabs and swings to the head Broderick was almost out when the Police Captain in attendance jumped into the ring and the fight was awarded to Sullivan. On 16 May, Sullivan outpointed Sammy Kelly over 20 rounds at the Lenox AC, Manhattan, NYC, New York, in a match refereed by Jimmy Dime and billed as a defence of his American 118lbs title. Unfortunately, Sullivan came to the ring weighing 122lbs while Kelly, despite losing, scaled inside 118lbs and took over the former's claim by forfeit.

Getting the superior image quality of an LED TV doesn't have to be an expensive affair, thanks to the LG 42LN5400 LED TV. Part of the LG 5400 series, this 42-inch LED TV takes advantage of technologies from more advanced sets, and puts them into a model perfect for the average user looking for a great viewing experience.
The heart of the 42LN5400 is the LED backlit panel, featuring a full HD 1080p picture. LED backlighting produces a picture with better brightness and colors than a traditional LCD television, so your favorite movies will have clarity like never before. LG's proprietary Triple XD Engine helps reduce noise and increase contrast, for cinema-like picture quality. For sports fans and gamers, TruMotion 120Hz technology greatly reduces motion blur, keeping the picture sharp when the onscreen action speeds up.
LG understands that some people just want to enjoy watching TV, without worrying about tech specs or fiddling with settings. To that end, the 42LN5400 LED TV comes equipped with Picture Wizard II, a simple on-screen calibration system. This easy-to-use feature uses images and diagrams to guide you through a calibration process, giving you the best picture output without needing a PhD in technology. An LG SIMPLINK connection lets your other LG devices communicate via a single cable, allowing easy system integration and control. And because it's ENERGY STAR qualified, the LG 42LN5400 can end up saving you money compared to an older TV.

I am very much enjoying this TV after 3 weeks of viewing. The picture quality and settings are excellent, and the menus, simple. The built-in audio is pretty poor, however, and that has required some significant adjustment for the set this unit is replacing. For watching the news, it's fine, but for any other viewing, I run the sound through my AV receiver, which sadly, wipes out any benefit to be gained from the energy efficiency provided by the LCD-LED screen. I would not recommend this unit if it is to be "stand alone."

Picture was really nice and sharp. Speaker tone was bad, very mid-range-ish, but after ten days of normal use (nights, weekend) the power shut off. I tried unplugging waiting and repluging, but the pilot light would come on for about ten seconds and shut off again. new unit too..it was made a month before I bought it. I returned it to the store and purchased a different brand

I think i got a really great deal on this tv. It is just the right size for everything I use it for, plus it has a super clear picture. One thing I did take a couple of stars off for was that I personally would have preferred a few more HDMI inputs. I have a lot of things hooked up to my tv, but I guess there are a few things you have to take off when making tv's as slim as this one. Overall, a great choice when looking for tv's

This is not the most expensive TV we looked at , but it had more features for the money than any of the others. We were pleasantly surprised when we turned it on at saw how sharp and clear the picture was compared to our old LCD TV. LG is a quality product at a reasonable price. It actually has more features than some other TV's that cost more. ie, the zoom feature (great for those letter box movies), that is included on this TV, but not on most others in this price range. EZ to read and control remote.

Comments about LG 42" Black LED 1080P HDTV:
Bought this for our son to use in his room for his new gaming system PS4 and for him to have an HD TV. Delivery was on time and set up was very easy. Picture quality is great and my son is really enjoying having it for his gaming and also watching football on. We've only had 2 weeks so can't say anything about future issues, we own another LG big screen TV that we've had for over 3 years and haven't had any problems or issue with it, hoping this will be the case with this one too.

A class of defective interfering (DI) poliovirus particles has been identified. The first was found as a contaminant of a viral stock; others have been isolated by serial passage at a high multiplicity of infection. The DI particles are less dense than standard virus and sediment more slowly. Their ribonucleic acid (RNA) sediments more slowly than standard RNA and has a higher electrophoretic mobility. Competition hybridization experiments with double-stranded viral RNA indicate that DI RNA is 80 to 90% of the length of standard RNA. The proteins of DI particles are indistinguishable from those of standard poliovirus.

Full Description
This proposal functions on the rhythmic alternation of appearance and disappearance. An object, and a voice whispering uncertain words, dissolve into each other or superimpose onto each other in an imprecise way, in an incessant back and forth. Enregistrer 1 is elaborated on the idea of unrolling, of visual and resonant wavering, the game of the compulsive gesture that starts the circle/cycle of repetition, of the loop again, indefinitely free from alteration of meaning.

Team reviews
Bill was extremely helpful in completing the purchase of the house. He went above and beyond the responsibility of a realtor with numerous calls to the bank, appraisers, and selling agent to keep the ball rolling and complete the deal while we were in a different state.
Bill has represented me as both a buyer and seller. He has outstanding understanding of the local area and neighborhoods. He is extremely personable, responsive and willing to go out of his way to help his clients. As a buyer he helped me find a great house and work the sale while I was still living out of town. He did a lot of extra legwork without hesitation and made the buying process extremely easy. As a seller, Bill sold my house in about a weeks time. He was able to bring a great buyer to the table and again went out of his way to make the selling process simple and anxiety free. I can only give Bill and his team the greatest endorsement and recommendation!
Bill and Robin were excellent, They were warm and friendly and made a very stressful process very easy. Their team was available to answer questions even after hours as we were coming in from out of state. and needed to be here as time was winding down for the kids to be in school. Their enabled us to correspond and send files via email and phone. I was impressed by their quick response and attention to detail in all matters. They did not press on us any property we did not want neither did they try to sell us anything out of our budget they provided what we asked for. These are really good folk and took care of us after closing as well as we had some question.
Full service, attention to detail and just plain nice people. I highly recommend them.
We had a rough time with the appraiser and the bank part and Bill was great during the process! We have never been to Clemson and he made it feel like home for us! Our home buying process hasn't been fun but because we had Bill it made it better!
The Dunlap Team is great. I had the pleasure of experiencing my first time buying a house with Robin by my side. As a first time buyer I was nervous, picky and had a lot of questions. Robin was always there to reassure me and answer all of my annoying questions. She had patience with me and I ended up finding my DREAM first house. The inspection didn't go well at all and Robin made sure that all things in the house were fixed. When I had the second inspection done the house was perfect. Thank you Robin for making my first time buying a house fun, you were great.
I would not recommend this realtor team. Mr. Dunlap showed me a rental property and I filled out an application. After several attempts to contact him, I gave up. He never returned my calls. I found his attitude to be arrogant and disdainful.
No idea what happened here - My Mother has always taught me to treat everyone with respect from the poorest to the richest - I have never been called either one of these names before - I do get a ton of rental calls weekly and I still try my best to help - My only thought is that this was written by a tenant that was evicted. I work very hard for my clients
We met Robin Dunlap through a friend in Pendleton, South Carolina. We had a lot of correspondence with the Dunlap Team, providing specifics to what we were looking for in housing. Being in south Florida we knew nothing of the area in South Carolina we were interested in. On our first meeting with the Dunlap Team we were provided with several houses that fit our criteria. We spent a day and a half with the Dunlap Team looking at every house until our decision was made. Once our decision was made we headed back to south Florida and left the details in the hands of the Dunlap Team. Within a short period of time, we were back in South Carolina for the closing on our new house. As from the first day meeting the Dunlap Team, the closing went very well, took no time at all. The Dunlap Team had done their homework, everything in place, all required documents/information available, all we had to do was sign. It is evident that Bill and Robin Dunlap truly care about the interest of their clients. We since have referred relatives to the Dunlap Team and will continue to do so. I guess at this point in time we could say they are on the same level as the Clemson Tigers, UNBEATABLE!
I selected the Dunlap Team because of the great review they got on Zillow. I had the pleasure of working with Robin Dunlap for five months and she was fabulous from the day we started until the day we closed on the house. I would recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in her area. Robin has great energy and is very personable. Love her!
Theresa G.
I have worked with Robin Dunlap over the past few months trying to find the home of my dreams. So far, we haven't found the ideal place for me, but it is in no way a reflection of Robin's lack of trying or expertise. She and Bill have been a pleasure to work with, and I am always impressed with their immediate response to my inquiries. If I ever do find my dream house, I will not hesitate one minute to list my current home with Bill and Robin Dunlap.
Debbie, I want to thank you for the review. I saw it a long time ago, but just now realized that there was a button where I could respond to you. It was a pleasure to work with you, but just sorry that I didn't get to sell you one! Maybe when you get ready to move on I can start the search again. : ) Take care and keep in touch!
