The first word on Monkey Island 2: The Special Edition has emerged from the muddy swamps. We don't usually report rumors, but we can report reporting on rumors. From Kotaku:
We've heard from sources that the game is due to be announced very soon, perhaps even next week at the Game Developer's Conference, and that like the first game's special edition, will contain all-new graphics and audio.
Unlike the first game, however, this one will be reaching a few more consumers, with versions planned for not just the Xbox 360, PC ad iPhone (like Monkey Island), but the PlayStation Network as well.

1. If I'm not over-weight or allergic..and I don't have history of breast cancer in my family - is it okay to take in soy milk, any brand? I get frustrated when random people even, say 'oh soy is bad for you, it's unhealthy and causes this/that'
2. How could I make my own non-dairy milk alternatives, like rice or almond? I guess it will sound strange, but for my own soya based milk - could I use tofu and mash it up/blend it?
Thanks guys =) This month was better but wasn't able to completely cut the dairy. I think April 1st will be a good month - hoping for it!
No matter what changes you make to your diet or lifestyle, there will be naysayers; those who don't like what you're doing because it goes against their own pre-concieved notions. That includes those with carnivorous, omnivorous, herbivorus diets. I have read recipes for making your own plant milk, but frankly I am too lazy to do that so can't give you one off the top of my head. They are available if that's what you'd prefer.
I bought a soy/nut milk maker. They are inexpensive and saves me a lot of money, not to mention the chemicals/sugar in commercially processed milks.
I don't know if the hype about soy is due to the fact that 90% of soybeans produced here are genetically modified. GMO's are proving to be the cause of a lot of food allergies and other health concerns.
All I know is that when I eliminated all GMOs from my diet, I feel better. That includes the meat and dairy which are fed GMOs.
I'm in control of what I put into my body and that is liberating for me. Not to mention the amazing body transformation I've had. I now weigh less than my goal weight at weight watchers...lol And I don't count calories or measure my food.
There are lots of plant-milk recipes available online if you want to make your own. I used to make my own almond milk because it was super simple. Soy milk I never tried, but I suspect it is pretty easy too.
Susan Levin, MS, RDPCRM Director of Nutrition Education
Good for you for making the change! Don't let others discourage you, keep your thoughts on positive, helpful things and more will open up to you.
Soy milk is made from whole soybeans, not tofu. There are machines that make the process easy. I prefer almond milk and The Chef and The Dietitian have DOZENS youtube videos out teaching vegan cooking, one of which is how easy it is to make almond milk!

Great job
Very impressed with quality customer service and product overall
good quality and cute save-the-dates
My wedding has a rustic theme and my fiance is a big outdoorsy person so these were the perfect design. They are small, so don't be surprised like I was, but they fit the text fine and are legible. I chose a different font than the sample. The cards are a good quality and thickness and the coloring is great. I picked the red leaves since my accent color is red.
Exactly what looking for
we are having fall wedding and these cards were perfect fit for the fall themed wedding. I loved the fact you can have both sides created for same price!! We ended up putting our picture on the back of card and it looked AMAZING. The price was also great!! Turnaround time exceeded my expectations. Only thing that suprised by was size. Thought card was going to be bigger than it was. Only good part was it did save me on postage!!
Great design for a GREAT price!
I loved the desing of the card. My Fiance and I fell in love with the design at first sight. It went perfectly with our "fall" themed wedding. The price was great for what i got. The card size was a bit samller than i had anticpiated. However, for a save-the-date card it was perfect. I would recommend this website to anyone.

If you need a replacement Noma Idler, such as a Flat Idler, Heavy Duty Flat Idler, Heavy Duty V Idler or V Idler, think Jack's first! We've been selling lawn mower parts and small engine parts online since 1997, so when you need replacement Noma idlers, just come to Jack's! It is important to know that idlers are not the same as pulleys. There are parts called idler pulleys, but they are actually pulleys. The difference is that a pulley will have a notch (or some other device) to fix it to a shaft that it rotates around, while an idler rotates freely around bearings at its center

Milia are tiny white bumps that most commonly appear across a baby's nose, chin or cheeks. Although milia can develop at any age, these tiny white bumps are common among newborns. In fact, up to half of all babies develop milia. You can't prevent milia, but the good news is that milia usually disappear on their own in a few weeks. The best treatment for milia is usually none at all.
Milia are most commonly seen on a baby's nose, chin or cheeks, though they may also occur in other areas, such as on the upper trunk and limbs.
Sometimes similar bumps appear on a baby's gums or the roof of the mouth. These are known as Epstein pearls. Some babies also develop baby acne, often characterized by small red bumps and pustules on the cheeks, chin and forehead.
If you're concerned about your baby's complexion or it doesn't clear up within three months, consult your baby's doctor.
Milia develop when tiny skin flakes become trapped in small pockets near the surface of the skin.
If you're following a standard well-check schedule, your baby will likely visit with your family doctor or pediatrician soon. These regular appointments offer a good opportunity to discuss concerns about your baby's health. For milia, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Milia are easy to see on a baby's skin. No specific testing is needed.
Milia typically disappear on their own within several weeks, and no medical treatment is recommended.
Try these tips to help your baby's skin look its best:
There's little you can do to prevent milia. Simply wash your baby's face with warm water and look forward to the clearer days ahead.

Tennessee is a style of whiskey that differs from Bourbon whiskey very slightly in production. Every other process is the same, though the mash bill need not contain the same quantity of corn.
The additional process is known as the Lincoln County Process. It was named for Lincoln County, in which Jack Daniel first distilled. This process involves filtering the spirit through sugar maple charcoal. This process removes some of the congeners and esters in the spirit and proffers a slightly smoky character. There are two distillers who produce Tennessee whisk(e)y; George Dickel and the famed Jack Daniel.

Comments about Continental X-King Race Sport 29Er Tire:
After trying several tires with my 29er hardtail, I think I've found a keeper here! Big volume with the 2.4" width that provides ample cushion for the hardtail. Installed them tubeless without any issues (Note: I did use an air compressor) and so far the grip the black chili rubber compound has provided is unreal! As for durability, not the thickest sidewalls but definitely not the thinnest either and surprisingly, the tread still looks like new! They aren't cheap but if you're looking for an great XC or "all-rounder," give these a whirl.

Wonderfully relaxing
This property is as good, or better, than it is represented in the description. My husband and I had the most relaxing week at this cottage. Some days we drove to attractions like Acadia. Others we simply lounged around and read. We have had bad experiences in the past with online vacation rentals and were reluctant to take another chance. The owners put our fears to rest with their prompt communication and reliable follow through. The unit was very clean and everything was available for convenience and comfort. So glad we made the trip. It was exactly what we needed and were expecting from the description. We will be smiling from our memories of this trip for a long time.

We are devastated to report that a three-month-old Pit Bull puppy named Joey was thrown from a car in Brentwood, Long Island, on Saturday. A witness found the tiny 10-pound pup in a plastic bag near the Sagtikos State Parkway, covered in fleas and crying out for help. Joey suffered three broken vertebrae in his neck and is recovering at the Veterinary Medical Center of Long Island.
The ASPCA is offering a reward of $15,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this case. This reward is in addition to a $5,000 reward offered by the Suffolk County SPCA. We are also providing a $10,000 grant to the Veterinary Medical Center to offset some of the costs of treating and caring for Joey.
"We were both outraged and saddened to hear about this disturbing case of violent abuse, and the callousness that was demonstrated by those responsible," says Matt Bershadker, Senior Vice President of the ASPCA's Anti-Cruelty Group. "While our ultimate hope is that these types of heinous acts never occur, this is a message that cruelty toward animals will not be tolerated. We are pleased to be in a position to help those who are helping Joey."
If you have information related to Joey's case, please contact the Suffolk County SPCA by calling (631) 382-7722.
Animal cruelty is a crime in every state—if you see something, call 911. Please join our battle against animal cruelty today!
Such cruelty cannot be tolerated. Whoever did this needs to stay in jail!!
My God, what despicable humans - wish I could have seen it - I would have chased them until I caught them and then beat them to death. Hope this poor little dog heals quickly and that he finds the loving, kind and compassionate home he so deserves. It is little wonder I hate the majority of humans.
I continue to be amazed at the stupidity and the cruelty of people even though those characteristics run rampant in today's world. You'd think that I would be desensitized, but (thankfully?) I am not. I will send up prayers for Joey and although it will be hard for me to do so, I will send up prayers for the ___________________ that did this to him.
Where's Steven Segal when you need him?
I am sickened and outraged to read of this incident. My heart goes out to this puppy, this baby. May his recovery be smooth and the rest of his life be filled with the love he, and all animals, deserve.
I am trying to hold back tears as I write this. I look around at my canine children -- all 10 of them -- sleeping and playing around me, and I can't even begin to imagine what kind of monster it would take to hurt such a tiny, innocent being. Poor little Joey! Please take good care of him! I hope whoever did this to him goes to prison for a very long time, and I hope Joey will find it in his heart to forgive the rest of humanity for letting him down and not protecting him when he needed us. May he find a loving forever home someday soon and learn that we are not all monsters.
I am so sad about what happened to Joey, thank you so much for the people who found him and are helping him, when they find the person or people who did this to him, they should get the same punishment, how can anyone hurt a defensless animal, they say the way you treat animals is the way you treat people, and I believ this. Get better Joey, will be praying to St. Francis for you.
Poor baby. I hope the people responsible are caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Jail? No....that is way too easy - the person who through a helpless, voiceless puppy out of the window of a car should be SET ON FIRE and die a slow, tortuous death. These types of "humans" (I use this word loosely), should not be roaming on this earth. It has been proven that animal abusers will also abuse and/or kill other humans. I pray for all the animals that suffer at the hands of humans in this world.
Let's try to focus on finding the loser who did this to little Joey and Joey's recovery, not so much hating the people from Long Island. There are animal abusers everywhere, and believe me, I wish we could round each and everyone one of them up and give them a taste of their own medicine - let's put him in a plastic bag and throw him/her out a window. I have no sympathy for animal abusers - they are completely aware of what they are doing, and show no remorse or mercy, and so I have no mercy on them either.

On March 24, the ASPCA assisted the Federal Bureau of Investigation, United States Attorney's Office and local law enforcement agencies in a federal dog fighting raid that resulted in the seizure of nearly 100 dogs from multiple properties in Missouri, Kansas and Texas.
Yesterday, at a federal court in Kansas, justice was served. Two individuals connected with last March's raid learned that they would serve time in prison, pay large fines and perform community service for their roles in the illegal enterprise.
Pete Davis Jr., 38, was sentenced to 16 months in prison and Melvin Robinson, 42, was sentenced to 10 months after pleading guilty to charges related to dog fighting. Davis and Robinson were also ordered to perform 50 hours of community service and pay $430,919 to the ASPCA for the care of the dogs seized. Both Davis and Robinson are also banned from owning dogs for three years following their sentences.
"The ASPCA is proud to have helped secure justice for the dogs involved in this case," says Tim Rickey, Vice President of ASPCA Field Investigations and Response. "Thanks to the persistence of the FBI, U.S. Attorney's Office and Missouri State Highway Patrol, these individuals are finally answering for the suffering they caused these dogs. Dog fighting is a horrific crime, and we encourage the public to continue to report suspected dog fighting activities to local authorities."
The ASPCA provided daily care, medical treatment and enrichment for the animals seized in the raid before placing the majority of the dogs with rescue groups to be made available for adoption.

Three years until they can own dogs again? Guess we know when they'll be running dog fights again! Shame on the legal system and shame on us for allowing this leniency.
They should be banned from owning dogs for the rest of their lives!
Until individual states enact legislation increasing penalties for animal abuse, cruelty and fighting these are the sentences you will see. It is up to you, the animal lovers, to strongly encourage your state and local representatives to develop harsher penalties, more vigorous enforcement, and more enthusiastic pursuit of those who abuse animals. Then and only then can you complain about 16 or 10 month sentences for such offenses.
Are you kidding me!?! The sentences given do not, in any way make up for what these creeps have done!! And, what of the other folks involved? While it is good to see some small level of "justice" done, it is way too little a "punishment." And there is NO WAY these horrible creeps should EVER be able to own any animal(s) again to recreate this suffering and abuse of innocent creatures!!! Are you kidding me!?!
I want to thank all the people involved for saving these dogs. It is my hope that the majority of them were able to be placed for fostering or adoption. I find the amount of time the judge sentenced deplorable. The fines are great but in reality who will stay on top of this in a timely manner to make sure they are paid?? It goes without saying both men will only serve a few months. But at least they will be behind a bar for awhile. Although all 3 agencies did the best they could, our justice system failed to do so. Those that abuse any animal have no regard for life, any life. They enjoy torture,causing pain,watching sufferage to the point of death. It is this realization that our justice system must address. They do not belong in society. But because they abuse animals and kill them, they get rarely any jail time. But if they did the same to a person, they are sent to prison. As far as I'm concerned any person who abuses an animal or person does not deserve to be among us. Our justice system must accept these people do not change. Start giving animal abusers prison time, with out 3 meals a day, no cable tv, no healthcare, no mattress, no heat or air conditioning. And this suggestion is much too kind for what they truly deserve.
I concur with the strong feelings already submitted but don't blame the judges for the sentences. They do not write or make our laws - it's up to the elected politicians to write the laws and the prescribed sentences. Therefore, if you don't like the laws, elect those politicians who value animal welfare and will change the laws. If they don't do what you want, then vote them out the next time around!
Michael Vick has a dog, a "family pet" for his children. He should have never been allowed to own a dog or any other animal ever! His sentence was also too mild, in my opinion. Animal cruelty needs to be taken more seriously as a criminal offense.
At least they got some jail time--many of these scumbags get no incarceration whatsoever. I like that they must pay for the dogs' care-- something I am sure they neglected to do while they had possession of them. The thing that disturbs me most is the ban on owning dogs. Three years is not enough. It should be a mandatory lifetime ban.
At least, though, the judicial community is waking up to the problem. That is a good fist step!
this has to be a joke - there is no way this can be all they got...they should never be allowed to own another animal, that's all they got for jail time and a whole 50 hours community service?? they should have to give so many hours a week to an animal rescue or shelter for years to come. the justice system should be embarrassed to allow this to continue.

Results vs. Limestone (2007-02-08 19:30:00)
February 8, 2007
|Falcons Fall to Limestone 97-91
|Thursday, 08 February 2007
Misenheimer, NC---Pfeiffer(13-8,7-7) lost a heartbreaking 97-91 decision to Limestone(15-5,10-3) in CVAC men's basketball action Thursday night. The Falcons, down 22 at halftime, made a furious comeback but fell just short. DeMario Grier scored 48 points to lead the Falcons who had two shots late to tie the game but both rimmed out. Andre Coleman led Limestone with 26.
Limestone came out on fire and quickly built an 11-3 lead. The lead grew to 20-9 with 15:14 to go.
A DeMario Grier three-pointer cut the Saint lead to 23-17 with seven minutes gone.
Two straight Limestone three-pointers gave them a 37-21 advantage with 6:52 to go until intermission.
The lead continued to grow and at halftime Limestone led 55-33.
DeMario Grier led Pfeiffer with 12 points in the half despite only playing eight minutes because of foul trouble. Limestone shot 11 of 16 from beyond the arc to build their twenty-two point advantage.
Second Half--Two Words: DEMARIO GRIER
In one of the great offensive displays in Pfeiffer history Grier scored 36 points in the second half to lead an incredible Falcon comeback. Grier shot 11 for 16 from the field, including 5 of 8 from "3" and 9 of 9 from the free throw line.
The Falcons came out attacking offensively and pressing defensively. The Saints were able to keep their 22 point lead for the first four minutes but then the Falcons started coming back.
Down 74-55 with 11:09 to go DeMario Grier led Pfeiffer on an amazing 14-1 run to cut the Saint lead to 6 at 75-69 with 7:21 left. Grier scored all 14 points of the run.
The Saints battled hard but Pfeiffer kept up their pressure defense and got a couple of good looks from beyond the arc to tie the game with a little over one minute remaining. Both shots just missed and Limestone hit their free throws and were able to hold on and win 97-91.
Grier led Pfeiffer with 48. Robert McGriff added 12 and Logan Call chipped in with 11. Five Saints scored in double figures led by Andre Coleman's 26.
Coach Davis said after the game, "It was my fault for not attacking in the first half. Nearly the whole team is sick or hurt and I thought we needed to conserve. We attacked the last twenty minutes and boy did we do it. Our team showed tremendous heart and character. Grier was unbelievable. He carried us offensively and is playing the best defense of his career right now. We were without Tavares Cooper(injured) and played most of the game without Craig Thomas(hurt) but our guys never quit."
Pfeiffer will host Coker at 7:30 pm on Saturday.

We already knew that Greyhounds at racetracks suffer immensely. But today, Greyhound advocate group GREY2K USA released a report that shows just how bad things are for dogs forced to race in Texas.
The report, produced with funding from the ASPCA, showed that at Texas racetracks:
• Greyhounds are forced to live in confined, stacked cages, with large Greyhounds being unable to stand fully erect in their cages.
• In 2012, six Greyhounds died at Gulf Greyhound Park from a form of canine influenza, often a recurring epidemic in cramped living situations.
• In 2011, a Texas Greyhound trainer failed to obtain veterinary care for an injured Greyhound until two days after the injury occurred.
• Greyhounds are fed 4-D meat from diseased animals to reduce costs.
The report also showed that1,507 greyhound injuries were reported at Texas racetracks from January 2008 through December 2011. Fifty-six of these injuries were fatal or required euthanasia, with the most commonly reported injury being broken legs. Other serious injuries reported included torn muscles, puncture wounds, a fractured skull and paralysis.
Frankly, we don't see why the Texas dog racing industry doesn't just throw in the towel—Lone Star State residents are way over dog racing. The report shows that gambling on dog racing and dog race attendance are way, way down.
Angry? Join the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade to stand up for animals.
The mistreatment and cruelty in Texas greyhound racing is a black mark against the great state of Texas and should be abolished by state legislative action.
We know you footed the bill for the reporting but what exactly are you doing to prevent this from continuing? to stop the cruelty to these poor animals? Dog racing should be illegal. It's upsetting to know that these people are allowed to treat those dogs poorly. No vet care, dumping them in stacked cages, obviously no walks/exercise other than forcing them to race. I would like to see a report on what the ASPCA is doing to end all this.
Millions have been donated to the ASPCA yet there is still a backlog on animal cruelty reports all over New York. By the time the humane law enforcement actually get to investigate these abuse reports, it's many months later and sometimes too late to even save a life. I'm very upset. I would like to see change. Maybe you guys should hire more animal cops to catch up on your backlog and be up to date. People have donated so much to see animal lives saved. What is the money being spent on?? Many admins?
This is so sick and so inhumane! This cruelty HAS to stop!!!! These are beautiful animals that need love, comfort and joy in their lives....being abused is NOT one of them!! STOP THIS INSANE ACT OF CRUELTY!!
I had a greyhound. It was the MOST lovable dog of all times. People that make animals suffer one day will suffer as well. I hope that day comes soon.
Greyhound racing is not entertainment. It is just another explotation sp?
using a wonderful animal to make a buck. Stop this insane form of torture.
We are 100% agaist greyhound racing. My wife and I are Greyhound people, we are members of a Greyhound group. The act of racing is clowing coming to an end - many many tracks are closing. It will take time, but we see that one day Greyhound racing will be a thing of the past. Over the years I have been aroung "Great"Hounds, we have not seen one that was not sweet. Adopt one, or two....
Grey2K is my favorite charity. They achieve great results in closing tracks and defending dogs that are victims of the racing industry. PLEASE give whatever you can to them to help them in their worthwhile efforts.
If this type of treatment and abuse was given to thorough bred horses, even the horse owners would be enraged. Greyhounds are bred to race like fine horses are but if we take the joy of running from them by how we treat them, we have no business racing them. I enjoy watching and cheering on a good race - be it human, horse, or even turtles - but the runner must be the one who enjoys it the most and should receive the most benefit from it. If not, then we all are the cruel abusers.
I adopted a greyhound, who just turned 2 in December, and she is absolutely one the the most awesome, loving, dogs I have ever had. She is a clown and makes me laugh.
I can't believe that the United States as a so called civilized nation would allow this to continue. Senators and Reps.........open your eyes and stop greyhound racing altogether. It is not a sport and it should not be tolerated!

Troopers and road crews work hard to keep U.S. 2 safe
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
A WSDOT truck checks for slides over U.S. 2 caused by avalanches triggered by artillery fire along U.S. 2 near the Stevens Pass summit last week.
Washington State Trooper Alex Keltz talks with WSDOT technician Mike Moreshead near Stevens Pass last week.
Mark Mulligan / The Herald Washington State Trooper Mark Francis watches a WSDOT snowcat prepare for avalanche control along a closed section of U.S. 2 near the Stevens Pass summit Tuesday afternoon.
Along U.S. 2, urban becomes rural becomes mountainous. In winter, everything turns white, with glimpses of green and gray.
The snow coats and clings. It sheathes road signs and markings. At the guardrails, it piles and leans, perpetually spilling down the mountainside and over the asphalt.
About 5,000 drivers head over Stevens Pass every day.
A handful of folks with the Washington State Patrol and the state Department of Transportation -- many of them from Snohomish County -- work to keep them safe.
On winter days, the temperature drops as much as 20 degrees as U.S. 2 winds through the lowlands of east Snohomish County and up to Stevens Pass.
Four Washington State Patrol troopers from Snohomish County are assigned to the pass full-time.
Technically, they work the west side, and Wenatchee-based troopers work the east side, but everyone helps out as needed, pass Trooper Alex Keltz said.
They do the usual trooper stuff: ticketing speeders, arresting drunken drivers and reporting abandoned vehicles so they can be towed off the roadway.
However, at this time of year, they also help a lot of stranded drivers, Keltz said.
He calls it "community care-taking."
"A lot of times they're stuck in a snowbank, a little embarrassed, and cold and wet," he said.
Many people struggle with getting chains on their tires, he said.
"I'm not the quickest at it, but I'll get them on and get them moving," he said.
Most drivers who end up needing help on the pass aren't prepared for conditions, he said. Many forget they don't have cellphone service. Plenty have four-wheel-drive vehicles but are going too fast and lose control.
"The least we can do is get a tow going for them," give them a ride down to cellphone service, or get them some help from friends or family, said Mark Francis, another trooper and the regional State Patrol spokesman.
Before Keltz headed up to the pass Jan. 8, he filled the gas tank in his state-issued Ford Expedition. He made sure everyone with him had an avalanche beacon. He checked his traction tires.
There was no accompanying safety lecture: It was, clearly, just something he does.
Inside the bright lemongrass-colored snowplow it's warm and a little smelly -- of mud and fuel.
Dirty snow, ice and slush sprays and arcs from the plow blade, angled away from oncoming traffic.
Plow driver Dan Farmer, 62, of Wenatchee, keeps the heat cranked up and the windows cracked.
"We've got a good looking road there," he said. "Don't turn your back on it."
The voices from all the pass crews crackle over Farmer's radio. An on-board computer lets him decide when to lower the plow blade, or when to apply salt or de-icer. A green beam of light shines a few yards ahead, warning him where the plow blade is aimed next.
Icicles hang from the plow's front side mirrors, twisted back by the wind.
In his red flannel shirt, knee-high boots and heavy-duty vest, Farmer keeps the plow steady.
He paces the pass, back and forth. Occasionally, he pulls up alongside another rig to chat. The crews make sure everyone knows when avalanche control is planned, where the highway is closed, where everyone else is. They share plenty of those two-hands-on-the-steering-wheel-style waves -- just raising their fingers.
In warmer months, Farmer flies a private helicopter in the Wenatchee area, mostly for agricultural operations with a little law enforcement work on the side.
On Jan. 7, his plow shift started at 2 a.m., though most days it starts later. Traffic picks up after 6 a.m.
Farmer likes the challenge of the mountains and the organization of the machines working together.
"In the mornings, it's spectacular up here when it's clear," he said. "I flew for years in Southeast Alaska, and this country is just as dynamic as that."
He sees about a half-dozen spinouts a day while driving the plow.
In a typical snowfall, within 10 minutes of plowing, the road turns "totally white," he said.
On the afternoon of Jan. 8, about a half-inch piled up between plow trips.
"For some folks, this road condition is a tremendous challenge," he said. "You can't (stop) plowing otherwise the road will keep getting closed."
On his way home, back west, Trooper Francis suddenly flipped on his red-and-blue lights.
A bedraggled woman was waving at drivers, somewhere near Skykomish. She was cold. Her car was stuck.
Francis and others tried to push her car from a snowy side road. The trooper offered to drive her to a safe place, where she could meet up with family or friends.
She directed him back down to Index, and a cabin about a mile down a gravel road.
The woman climbed out of the Expedition and walked toward the home overlooking the Skykomish River.
"Thank you, sir," she said.

BELMONT – When Jay Council, Tyshawn Good, Alonzo Long and Terrone Sheffey were recruited to Belmont Abbey College in the spring of 2009, the Crusaders were coming off the school's first 20-win season in six years.
Head coach Stephen Miss and then-assistants Jonas Hayes and Jason Williams told were so confident the class could be successful they felt Good and Sheffey would form Conference Carolinas' best backcourt by the time they were seniors.
Add the defense that's been provided by Council and Long, those hopes could be realized – and then some – this season as the Crusaders are in contention for only the school's second senior college conference regular season title.
"From the first day we got here, I knew we had a chance to be good," said Sheffey, a 2009 Gaston Day School graduate who earned All-Gazette honors in 2009 before coming to the Abbey. "At the beginning of this year, we knew we had a lot of veteran players and felt we could win the championship. I still think we can do that, especially with how we've been playing."
As Sheffey, Council, Good and Long prepare to play what could be their final game at Wheeler Center Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. against Mount Olive, the Crusaders (18-6, 11-5) are one game out of first place in a congested Conference Carolinas race.
"My confidence has never wavered with this team," Good, the leading scorer in NCAA Division II at 26.8 points per game, said of the Crusaders' 5th-place preseason pick in the 11-team league. "I knew we had experience, I knew we had a good group of guys, I knew we were hungry and I knew it would all work out."
Clearly, the seniors have led a late-season surge as they will take a six-game winning streak into Wednesday night's game and have won 10 of their last 12 games since a 8-4, 1-3 start had them near the bottom of the league standings.
"I think this is our time," Council said. "We've been talking about doing something special the last few years. We've always had talent since I've been here. As seniors, we know more what needs to be done."
Over their four-year career, they've seen the Abbey hover around the middle of the league standings, as the Crusaders went 15-14 in 2010, 14-14 in 2011 and 15-12 last season.
This season was the group's last chance to make a bigger impact – or fulfill the expectations they had when they first met in the spring of 2009. The quartet met one another during their visits to the Belmont Abbey campus and, as freshmen, Long roomed with Good and Council roomed with Sheffey.
"From the first day we got here, we knew we had a chance to be a really good team and play well together," Sheffey said.
With that in mind as their final college season winds down, the group has high expectations for how they want to end their careers.
"I think we can win our conference tournament and then make some noise in the national tournament," Long said.

Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Young Patients With Newly Diagnosed Liver Cancer
Childhood Hepatoblastoma | Liver | Stage I Childhood Liver Cancer | Stage II Childhood Liver Cancer | Stage III Childhood Liver Cancer | Stage IV Childhood Liver Cancer
What is the purpose of this trial?
This phase III trial is studying the side effects of giving doxorubicin hydrochloride together with combination chemotherapy and to compare different chemotherapy regimens to see how well they work in treating young patients with newly diagnosed liver cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective with or without chemotherapy or which chemotherapy regimen may be more effective in treating young patients with liver cancer.

Download Instructions
Mostly you will find a simple hose-off will do the trick. If there is a little more dirt, a simple wet rag and natural spray cleaner should be sufficient to keep Loll furniture clean. Microfiber towels work great! If there is dirt embedded in the texture, you can do well with a mild soap and water and a stiff but gentle bristled brush. You can power wash your furniture if you like that sort of thing.
We have tried our very best to accurately represent product colors on this website. However, due to the nature of the recycled plastic we use and electronic media, color of actual products may differ slightly from how they appear on this website on your particular computer. Please request a sample to see actual product color. Call or email us with a good ship-to address and your requested sample will be sent to you free of charge or submit a Color Sample Request.
What kind of material is Loll made out of?
Loll products are made with 100% recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE) primarily from milk jugs (#2 plastics) that you take out to the curb every week. Milk jugs are used due to their lack of pigment so Loll's vibrant colors can be created. As Loll material is a post-consumer recycled material, the medium to create the material does inevitably fluctuate. Although we do continuously strive for the best consistency possible, material color and texture may slightly vary from sheet to sheet and thus product to product.
Is there ultraviolet (UV) stability in Loll material?
Yes. Loll products are manufactured with a highly weatherable HDPE sheet. Our post consumer resin includes a superior UV additive designed for plastics that improves exterior durability, greatly reducing characteristic surface degradation caused by sunlight and other UV light sources. Pigments / color concentrates are also added that are formulated with the best weathering pigments available in the market in a particular color-space.
Is fading covered under warranty?
No. The sun is very hard on materials that have constant direct exposure and we cannot guarantee the material color will not change over time. However, the HDPE that Loll uses has a UV stabilizer and is very resistant to fading. The color is not a finish coat; it is a pigment embedded in the material throughout. Some pieces use Richlite natural paper composite. Richlite will patina as it weathers and the lighter, natural colored material will redden or turn grayish. Black will remain black for years but with some apparent weathering. You will never have to paint or stain Loll Furniture. Our Warranty.
Will I see any change of color in my product?
The good news is that in most applications probably not. Further, darker colors are naturally much more resistant to change than lighter colors.
When products are placed in full direct sun, testing has shown NO significant change of color over time for:
- Black
- Charcoal Grey
- Chocolate Brown
- Cloud White
- Evergreen
- Sky Blue
Testing has shown INCREASED change of color over time for:
- Apple Red
- Sunset Orange
- Leaf Green
- Sand

The European Coalition to End Animal Experiments (ECEAE), for which the BUAV is Secretariat, has expressed its disappointment at a decision by the Board of Appeal on an animal test case at the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).
The ECEAE was granted leave to intervene in the case last year due to its recognised experience with animal testing and REACH. It supported the case made by the Dow Chemical Company, which was appealing a decision made by ECHA forcing the company to conduct a prenatal developmental toxicity test on rats for one of its substances.
The substance is dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate (DPMA) and is used as a solvent. The experiment would involve force feeding high doses of the solvent to pregnant rats and then killing them and their unborn babies the day before they are due to give birth. Dow calculates that nearly 1,500 animals would be involved.
Dow did not want to conduct the test because it has enough evidence from similar, non-toxic substances. Its submission to the ECHA included this 'read across' approach where the information gap in question is filled by 'reading across' from information for similar substances instead of doing another animal test. The approach was accepted for DPMA by a key international body called the OECD, of which most European countries are a member.
This week, the Board of Appeal announced its decision and rejected the claims made by Dow that the ECHA acted unlawfully in rejecting the read across approach. The Board said that the Agency has a wide discretion in whether it can accept adaptations to avoid testing. As a consequence the Board did not feel ECHA had acted inappropriately and avoided ruling on the scientific acceptability of the read across approach presented by Dow.
BUAV Senior Scientific Adviser, Dr Katy Taylor representing the ECEAE states: "We are very disappointed by the Board of Appeal's decision. In our view and that of Dow, ECHA set the bar for acceptance of read across unacceptably high. If ECHA continue to take this overly conservative approach, the ability of companies to use read across to avoid new animal tests will be severely restricted. It is a real shame that the Board did not advise ECHA about the soundness of their scientific approach."

H7N9 Influenza Strain Resistant to Antivirals, But Tests Fail to Identify Resistance
CONTACT: Jim Sliwa
WASHINGTON, DC – July 16, 2013 – Some strains of the avian H7N9 influenza that emerged in China this year have developed resistance to the only antiviral drugs available to treat the infection, but testing for antiviral resistance can give misleading results, helping hasten the spread of resistant strains.
The authors of a study published in mBio®, the online open-access journal of the American Society for Microbiology, characterized viruses taken from the first person known to be stricken with H7N9 influenza and found that 35% of those viruses are resistant to oseltamivir (commercially known as Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza), front line drugs used for treating H7N9 infections. However, lab testing of the viruses, which detects the activity of a viral enzyme, fails to detect that these strains are resistant, so monitoring for the development of resistance using this technique would prove futile.
"If H7N9 does acquire human-to-human transmissibility, what do we have to treat it with until we have a vaccine? Oseltamivir. We would be in big trouble," says corresponding author Robert Webster of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Resistant strains of H7N9 can flourish in patients treated with oseltamivir or zanamivir, he says, inadvertently leading to the spread of resistant infections.
In the mBio study, the authors tested antiviral susceptibility of an H7N9 strain isolated from the first confirmed human case of avian H7N9 influenza using a method that tests the activity of the neuraminidase enzyme. The reassuring results were, unfortunately, misleading: the enzyme-based test indicated that the flu strain was susceptible to NA inhibiting antiviral drugs, but it is not.
A closer look at the viral isolate revealed it is actually made up of two distinct types of H7N9 viruses. Roughly 35% of the viruses carried a mutation known as R292K, making them resistant to NA inhibitors, while 65% were sensitive to these same drugs. The enzyme-based testing gave misleading results, says Webster, because the functioning wild-type enzymes masked the presence of the non-functioning mutant enzymes.
Using NA inhibitors to treat a patient infected with a resistant strain of H7N9 only encourages the virus to proliferate and can lead to enhanced spread of the resistant strain. The authors write that these results prove that it is crucial to use a gene-based surveillance technique that can detect these resistant influenza strains in a mixed infection.
H7N9 first emerged in China in early 2013, in some cases infecting individuals who had been in contact with poultry or with places where poultry are housed. The virus has since been detected in poultry at live markets near where human infections have been reported. After the closure of many live poultry markets in China and with the start of the warm season, which is not conducive to influenza spread, the infection rate appears to have slowed. As of July 12, the number of infections stands at 132 and the number of deaths at 43.
If the recent history of H5N1 influenza is a guide, says Webster, then H7N9 could rapidly evolve the ability to spread from person to person. If it does, and if the virus reemerges in the fall, the situation with H7N9 could become quite serious. In the event of a widespread outbreak, Tamiflu and Relenza will work alright as treatments, but the development of the R292K mutation puts those options in jeopardy, says Webster.
But the news isn't all bad. Webster also points out that antiviral resistance is something of a burden for influenza viruses, and that fitter wild-type H7N9 strains may eventually win out over resistant strains. In the absence of a drug like Tamiflu, Webster says, it seems unlikely that these resistant viruses would acquire epidemic characteristics.
Regardless of the specific evolutionary steps H7N9 will take, influenza is an ongoing threat - and the lack of suitable drugs is a grave cause for concern.
"The great need at the moment are additional drugs aimed at additional sites in the influenza genome. There are some [drugs] in the pipeline, but they are still under testing at the moment," says Webster. "We'd better get some vaccine seed stocks up and ready. The antiviral option for controlling H7N9 isn't too good."
