Amgen 2Q net dips on higher research, other costs
Tuesday - 7/30/2013, 10:32pm EDT
AP Business Writer
Amgen Inc. said Tuesday that its second-quarter profit dipped 1 percent as higher spending on research, production and other items offset rising sales of its medicines.
However, the results from world's biggest biotech drugmaker soared above Wall Street expectations and it raised its profit forecast significantly. The company releases its results after the stock market closes, and despite the impressive results, Amgen's stock fell $1.80, or 1.6 percent, to $109.40 in after-hours trading. The stock gave back most of the $1.83 it gained during the regular trading session.
The maker of osteoporosis drug Prolia and Enbrel for rheumatoid arthritis and skin disorders said second-quarter net income was $1.26 billion, or $1.65 per share, down from $1.27 billion, or $1.61 per share, a year earlier.
Excluding one-time items, Amgen said adjusted net income was $1.44 billion, or $1.89 per share, well above the $1.74 analysts were expecting.
Thousand Oaks, Calif.-based Amgen said revenue rose 5 percent to $4.68 billion. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expected $4.49 billion.
"There are some questions about whether this can be done quarter in, quarter out," said Judson Clark, biotech analyst at Edward Jones.
Clark said that uncertainty might explain the drop in Amgen's stock after the results were announced, but he noted that Amgen often posts "stellar results" and they get shrugged off by investors. He said much of the earnings beat was driven by a very low tax rate, just 11.9 percent, which was partly offset by "suboptimal expense control."
Amgen noted during a conference call that operating expenses rose 8 percent in the quarter, mainly due to a 17 percent jump in research spending because multiple experimental drugs are now in the very expensive final stage of patient testing. However, production costs were up 7 percent and sales and administrative expenses rose 3 percent.
"We will remain disciplined and committed to maintaining our dividend," while looking for attractive acquisition prospects, CEO Robert A. Bradway told analysts on the call.
Amgen said its drug pipeline is progressing well, and it expects to announce key final-stage testing data on three experimental drugs in the first half of next year. That likely will enable the company to seek approval for them from regulators. The drugs are for malignant skin cancer, recurrent ovarian cancer and high LDL, or bad cholesterol, that doesn't respond to pills such as Lipitor.
Sales in the quarter were led Neulasta and Neupogen, for fighting infection in cancer patients, with their combined sales up 7 percent to $1.44 billion. Enbrel sales jumped 9 percent to $1.16 billion, but sales of anemia drug Aranesp slipped 2 percent to $524 million.
Two newer drugs, Prolia and Xgeva for preventing skeletal damage from solid tumors, saw their combined sales jump 46 percent, to $437 million. They contain the same active ingredient, but at different doses. Xgeva got approval for a second use, for treating giant cell tumors in bone, during the quarter.
Amgen raised its 2013 profit forecast to $7.30 to $7.45 per share, from the $7.05 to $7.35 per share it predicted in April. It also tweaked its revenue forecast, saying it now expects to hit "the upper end" of its January forecast of $17.8 billion to $18.2 billion in sales for 2013.

I don't use USB so I turned that off at the BIOS and removed it from my kernel, but I still get "interrupt storm" on my bge0 device. No idea why.

Sweetpea Cottage is selling a Navajo Rug that is dating to the 1930's. Most likely this was for sale to the tourists as they disembarked the trains in New Mexico. The colors are black, white, gray, golden-brown, and dominant in red with a cream field. The primary design consists of a boxed step diamond pattern with a dazzler diamond lozenge in the center. Overall, this rug is in good shape. The dimensions are about 37 inches by 46 inches, although there is some minor variation as the edges are not perfectly straight. It is very heavy and tightly woven. There are the common color variations throughout the rug that are a result of the blending of different wools, along with the usual lazy lines. There are no signs that this was ever a floor rug. There is no indication of any thinning as would be expected from floor wear. The overall condition is excellent with the exception of some very minor spots and pulls. We have never cleaned it and do not feel that it needs cleaning. The corners have the usually loss of tassels along with some minor losses along the edges.
With its very bold and simple design, this is a very nice looking rug that displays well on the wall or draped over a railing or piece of furniture. We would hesitate to put it on a floor because of its fine condition. Recognizing that people feel that buying an early rug over the internet can be risky, we believe that the description is as accurate as possible. If you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to send email. Also, as is always true of purchases from Sweetpea Cottage, YOUR SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED. We are the primary Navajo Rug dealer on Ruby Lane and if you wish to return the rug for any reason, that will be fine. Within three days of receiving the rug, simply notify us by email that you wish to return it. Once we receive it in original condition in a timely fashion, then we will refund the full purchase price of the rug minus shipping charges. Domestic shipping is $30 for this item. We will not be able to ship this item to international customers.
LAYAWAY is possible. Ask for details.

You may have more sandles, you may want more sandles, but these are the only sandles you'll need. I live in them every single day of the non winter widths. And I work / walk outside for 8-10 hrs a day. Rain or shine, these are the best & most comfortable sandles. My first pair lasted 10 yrs!!!! No joke... 10 yrs! I took them diving in Israel, hiking for my honeymoon... They just never fell apart!!! I finally replaced them with the same ones cause it just seemed wrong to wear 10 yr old sandles. But as I walked away, after disposing them, I have to admit I was slightly sad. We'd been through a lot together
These shoes are super comfortable, and will go with just about anything! They are great for water-filled adventures or climbing up mountains. The only downside is that the front strap was a little rough on my foot the first time wearing them, so I would suggest breaking them in a little before you begin wearing them all day. The adjustable straps are very helpful. I highly recommend these shoes!

Our internal dialogue regarding the above picture of Zani Gugelmann from yesterday's Charlotte Ronson show:
Wait a second. Is Zani Gugelmann really wearing an anti-fur button on a shearling coat? No. She can't be. But it looks kind of like she is. Maybe the fur is fake? But it is so lustrous. It looks like real fur. But can it really be possible that she picked up the anti-fur button, chirped 'I support animals,' and pinned it to her (fur-lined) bosom without noticing that as she did this her fingers brushed actual fur? NO. Yes? No. YES.
Also, are those leather boots?

Nov 14, 2011This is hands down the worst movie i've ever seen. It's not funny, the acting is horrible and she plot is just ridiculous. This movie made me question humanity.
Sep 9, 2014I was married to a beautiful woman, as soon as Pauly Shore came on the screen and made an annoying noise, she killed herself. This movie will destroy everything you love, Pauly Shore will destroy everything you love.
May 17, 2011This movie was just insanely funny, id give it an 8 but since everyone on here either gives 10s or 0s, mostly 0's i have to give it a ten
Sep 10, 2011C'mon you lousy critics. This is a Stoner comedy. STONER as in smoking weed and having some buds. Just like Half Baked, when is the last time a movie critic saw the movie? Oh yeah, nothing. But I enjoyed watching Bio-Dome. Pauly Shore is a great underrated comedian and someday soon I love to see a remake if that might happens in the future. One of the greatest comedies of the 90's.
Mar 2, 2011t's a brainless gem of childish giggles and one liners. Just the right cup of tea for dull morning.
Plus the environmental message is there (obviously)...
Overall I chuckle every time I watch it.
Apr 4, 2011Yes, it's dumb. It's not a great movie. But it's not absolutely terrible either, at least not terrible enough to deserve a 1. It still is good for a stupid laugh.
Apr 21, 2011First of all let me just start off by saying that whoever says is a bad movie is a stuck up person. They have put tons of thought into making this movie and it blew my mind. Things that people waste ther money on when they should be buying this movie: Milk its a scam, Car its a conspiracy, and anything to do with Rebbeca Black cuz she sucks
Sep 24, 2012This movie is a complete and absolute disaster.....one of the worst movies of all time.....
Aug 7, 2011this movie is a MONSTROSITY it make "Dude Where's My Car" look like a masterpiece! its not even funny. this movie is marketed toward potheads or people who don't know 1 thing about movies. DO NOT SEE THIS!!!
May 30, 2012I'm Not A Tough Critic But This Is A Very Poorly Made Movie..
The Acting Is Meh The Jokes Arent Even Funny..
Rose McGowan Makes A Cameo She Act's Better Than The 2 Main Stars!
Just Not A Funny Movie At All..
Apr 20, 2013How could this movie be possibly bad? Mediocre acting, terrible jokes, and it's a lousy ripoff of the Bill and Ted series, which is kind of bad itself. People say you have to be stoned to enjoy this, but that's a lie. 0/10 (That means it sucks).
Sep 11, 2013Well, come on, it's a Pauly Shore movie, so it's not going to be much to write home about. Even this knowledge, however, cannot prepare you for the pile of steaming ineptitude that this movie is.
Shore and Baldwin deliver career-low performances, the script is woeful, with no jokes in it at all; and the direction, from first-timer, Jason Bloom is not up to par.
Jan 3, 2014This movie is so terrible it is amazing. The irony is totally lost and the acting is awful, but I recommend this as a must-see for everybody, if not to enjoy it, to truly understand the epitome of a terrible film.
Jan 20, 2014This movie is painful, Pauly Shore, and Stephen Baldwin are obnoxious, and annoying, there are no funny jokes whatsoever, all the humor is seeing the main characters being obnoxious, and annoying.
Dec 30, 2014if you watch this movie for any reason then you are truly dumber for having done so. watching it makes you wonder how Pauli Shaw ever had a career in comedy and how writers though this uninspired waste of a stoner comedy would make anyone laugh and if you were trying to get an environmental message across well you failed completely. the only good part of it is a cameo of Tenacious D makingif you watch this movie for any reason then you are truly dumber for having done so. watching it makes you wonder how Pauli Shaw ever had a career in comedy and how writers though this uninspired waste of a stoner comedy would make anyone laugh and if you were trying to get an environmental message across well you failed completely. the only good part of it is a cameo of Tenacious D making me realise i could be watching better movies… Expand
Jan 24, 2015This may be the single worst movie of all time. Never in my life have I rooted for a group of characters more in my life than I did in this movie for the "bad guys" to castrate Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin. If that HAD happened I would have given a standing ovation.
Thoroughly incoherent... A dreary fizzle. [12 Jan 1996, p.C12]
Shore possesses only two talents -- his ability to assume yoga-like positions and fondle his own behind, and his mystifying knack for getting starring roles in bad movies.
A potentially amusing comic premise -- dropping a pair of anarchic stoners into the spaced-out, sanctimonious world of New Age bio-dome enthusiasts -- gets submerged in a shower of witless gags and the feeble one-joke persona of MTV celebrity Pauly Shore.

At least 30 wounded in blast at Tanzanian Catholic church—police
ARUSHA, Tanzania—At least 30 people were injured, three seriously, in a suspected bomb attack Sunday at a packed new Catholic church in the northern Tanzanian city of Arusha, police said.
Witnesses said at least one person had been trampled to death in the stampede after the blast.
The Vatican's ambassador to Tanzania, Archbishop Francisco Montecillo Padilla, was attending Mass at the church but was not harmed, officials said.
"There have been 30 people wounded, three in a serious condition, and one person has been arrested," said regional police chief Liberatus Sabas.
It was not immediately clear what caused the explosion.
"This is a sad day, our security forces are mobilized, and the culprits will be arrested and brought to justice," said Arusha's commissioner Magesa Mulongo.
"For the time being we don't know if it is a bomb," he added.
However, tensions have been high between Tanzania's Christian and Muslim communities in recent months, and local member of parliament Godbless Lema condemned the blast as the work of "criminals."
"Religious fundamentalism is a reality in this country, but the government does nothing," he said angrily outside the church, as police cordoned off the area and ordered people away from the building.
The blast took place outside a Roman Catholic church in Arusha, a town popular with tourists visiting the nearby Serengeti national park and snowcapped Mount Kilimanjaro.
The newly built church, in the Olasti district on the outskirts of Arusha town, was celebrating its first ever Mass when the blast took place, and people were squeezed into the church building as well as sitting on benches outside.
"When it exploded there was a stampede, people running in all directions, walking on each other, children were screaming and women crying," said Viviana, who was helped out of the church by her son.
"I saw a dead woman trampled, I think even her two children were killed in the same way," said a woman, who gave her name only as Mariana.
An AFP reporter said that several wounded people were taken to hospital, and that police had closed off roads around the church.
Worshippers angrily accused the police and the government of failing to properly protect them.
"There were so many people, the church was full, and the faithful were sitting on benches outside—it was a great day of celebration," said Jacob, a motorcycle taxi driver, who had been at the Mass.
In February, a Catholic priest was shot dead outside his church on the largely Muslim archipelago of Zanzibar, the second such killing in recent months. A church was also set on fire on Zanzibar in February.
Last month, in the far south of Tanzania, police fired tear gas to disperse around 200 Christian rioters attempting to torch a mosque over an argument over who should be allowed to slaughter animals.
Tanzanian Foreign Minister Bernard Membe said in a message on Twitter that he was "greatly shocked" at the news of the blast.—Ephrem Rugiririza

$140.00 18 bids <1m
This stroller was used for my first child before we had to replace it with a double stroller. We took great care of it and it was very functional as well as easy to use. I am hoping someone else will be able to get as much use out of it as we did for their newborn. We are including 2 stay-in-car bases since my husband and I both had one for our two vehicles and found it much more convenient to be able to pop the car seat in and out at our convenience. Our starting asking bid is $75.00 because we are including 2 car bases with this purchase. We would be willing to sell the Travel System with one car base if needed and sell the second one separately. Just message me if you would like this option and we can work on a fair price for the Buy It Now option.
You never stay put when you're a mom. So you need a travel system that's durable, comfortable and built for convenience – like the Passage Travel System. This four-piece system features our Passage Stroller, the top rated SnugRide Infant Car Seat and includes 2 stay-in-car bases.

Town Meeting on Human Wellbeing
UCL held a Town Meeting on 17 February 2010 on: "What is wellbeing and how can we measure it?".
The meeting, hosted by UCL's Grand Challenge of Human Wellbeing, considered how we might establish a UCL definition of wellbeing, what is important for wellbeing, and identified some key themes and aspects of research relating to wellbeing.
The Provost gave the opening address and the meeting featured a number of short presentations on different perspectives on wellbeing, followed by a panel and audience discussion chaired by Professor Nick Tyler.

Editor's note: Deep down we never thought it would happen here. Not so long after the horrors of Pearl Harbor. Terrorist attacks happened elsewhere. They were what we saw in far-off places on the nightly news. Then the planes came. Suddenly, innocence lost, we were all vulnerable. Fear, sorrow, anger and a hot desire for vengeance followed. Flags flew. Politicians ranted. We wanted a payback. And so the long War against Terror ensued. Sometimes it seems as if nothing has changed since 9/11; other times it's like everything has. Orange County Register columnists set out to examine in a personal way how the events 10 years ago have affected and shaped our lives. At best they provide a lens through which you can see how 9/11 may have changed you. We can't undo the damage caused by that 10-year-old nightmare, but maybe we can uncover what we have learned.
Ten years ago, when terrorists attacked the United States, high school social studies teacher Peter Tavoularis turned on the television for his students to watch.
You don't often get to be a witness to history.
"I told my students: 'When your brothers and sisters come here as students, everything you are seeing will be in their new textbooks.' "
The question is, what's the lesson? Does this tragedy offer a teachable moment, and if it does, what do you teach?
I asked this of teachers in the Orange Unified School District who have been part of a three-year partnership with UC Irvine to improve their teaching of American history. As part of that project this past year, many of them visited historical sites – including the battlefield at Valley Forge and Ground Zero.
Valley Forge (where the American Continental Army endured a miserable winter during the Revolutionary War) is class content mandated by state curriculum – but 9/11 is not.
Yet these teachers all take time to discuss Sept. 11 in their classrooms. They planned to talk about it before today's anniversary and again on Monday.
They want students to know what happened, but also to consider what it means.
It's jolting to realize that an eighth-grade student was probably in preschool 10 years ago with no memories of Sept. 11, 2001.
Amy Hale and Kristi Peckham teach history at Santiago Charter Middle School. Eighth-grade curriculum stops at World War I.
Their 9/11 observance focuses on the events and the victims. They show a History Channel video about the attacks to the school's seventh- and eighth-graders followed by a free-form discussion.
Many of their students have never previously seen what happened. Having visited the site allows their teachers to put more passion into their lessons.

Despite having been amended twenty times to date, Federal Law No. 135-FZ: "On Protection of Competition" dated July 26, 2006 (the "Competition Law"), passed in July 2006 with the aim of effectively regulating monopolistic activity and eliminating unfair competition, still contains a number of excessive administrative barriers that confuse and sometimes unnecessarily burden companies operating in the Russian market. In its continuing effort to clarify and streamline the Competition Law, the State Duma (the lower House of Parliament) is now considering Draft Law No. 199585-6 on "Amending the Federal Law on Competition" (the "Draft Law"), which was introduced at the end of last year and just recently passed its first reading. The Draft Law would ease the burdensome requirement of notifying the anti-monopoly authorities within 45 days following the execution of certain transactions that result in an economic concentration1, including M&A transactions.
Transactions Requiring Notification
Article 30 of the Competition Law lists six transactions that result in an economic concentration that require notification to the Federal Antimonopoly Service (the "FAS"). At present, these include:
Changes Introduced by the Draft Law
According to its accompanying explanatory note2, the Draft Law aims to remove the requirement that companies notify FAS in cases in which their transactions result in economic concentration in the form of any of the six cases listed by Article 30 of the Federal Competition Law. This move comes after a study conducted in 2011 by FAS found that it issued only 14 prescriptions ruling against anti-competitive activity out of the 2,124 notifications it received – a statistic that indicates that FAS has a negligible need to monitor the economic concentration activity specified in Article 30. Companies that are unsure as to whether their economic concentration activity falls under the cases listed in Article 30 often notify FAS in an abundance of caution, creating unnecessary work for both companies and FAS, and resulting in perfectly avoidable delays and excessive costs. In its current form, the Draft Law will allow companies with transactions that fall under Article 30 to completely bypass this cumbersome procedure and complete their transactions without involving FAS.
However, it is important to stress that the removal of the abovementioned notification requirement in this respect does not mean that the relevant companies would necessarily be exempt from obtaining preliminary approval from FAS. According to Article 28 of the Competition Law, preliminary approval from FAS is still required if the cumulative assets of the participating companies according to their last balance sheet exceed RUB 7 billion, or if the cumulative revenue of the companies together exceeds RUB 10 billion and if the cumulative assets of the target company and its group according to their last balance sheet exceed RUB 250 million.
As the Draft Law has only passed its first reading in the State Duma, it is early to draw any conclusions. However, if adopted, the Draft Law will significantly reduce administrative burdens for companies and individuals engaged in these transactions and will naturally relieve FAS of the unnecessary requirement of reviewing notifications that are highly unlikely to require any scrutiny or response. We will, of course, monitor the situation as it progresses and keep you updated.
1. Under Russian Law, economic concentration is defined as a transaction or action that might influence competition, including the formation and reorganization of companies, and transactions involving shares and participatory interests, property of commercial organizations, and rights over other commercial organizations.

It's that time again to publish a poem of mine. This poem comes from the inaugural Spring 2014 issue of Isthmus, a literary review. This may just be my biased opinion, but I think the issue is excellent, with strong poetry and prose. You can purchase the journal HERE.
OceansI get out of bed this morning to find oceans falling outside, tiny ones, smaller than my pinky nail but still containing all the world inside them, or so they say. In this weather, I keep putting things together and sending them off, typed and binder-clipped, and all I can hope is that they get where they're going before they all fall apart again and I disappear from the pages. Today, though, I'm sending nothing into the world, not even myself. I won't venture out beneath the water shooting down like a tiny tragic Daedalus a million times over. Today, I'll stay inside and make my apartment a mirror of all that water: open the windows and invite the rain in and pour a thousand cups of tea. Drink up, I'll tell the rain, it's only getting colder out there. I'll draw a bath a leave the faucet on until the water's sliding across the floor and soaking into the carpet, and when I've drenched the whole place and have my own little sea, I'll lie face-up in the waves between the couch and the TV and drift for a while, bobbing in the ocean I've made. I'll hold onto my books, floating like buoys, and realize they've always been my buoys, in this ocean and all the other ones, too.

Nasal Septal Perforation Directory
A nasal septal perforation is a hole in the nasal septum -- the tissue that divides the nostrils. Causes of nasal septal perforation include long-term use of decongestant nasal sprays, aggressive nose picking, chronic nose bleeds, nose surgery, cocaine use, and intentional nose piercing. Small perforations can cause a whistling sound when breathing; larger perforations can cause more severe symptoms, including bloody discharge from the nose, discomfort, and breathing problems, among others. Surgery can usually repair the septal perforation. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage about nasal septal perforation, what it looks like, how to treat it, and much more.
Medical Reference
Nasal sprays may ease nasal congestion, but overusing them can backfire into a condition called rhinitis medicamentosa.

While you have spent a lot of time sitting on your boat and others, you have never really tested your personal ability and character ever since that scare. All the internet bullying in the world does not change that obvious avoidance of personal growth in your sailing career.
I now understand why you feel so threatened by solo sailors and those who approawch sailing as a personal challenge, instead of a social activity. The mystery is why you would feel so proud of your perceived role as the SN "enforcer". I assume the mods encourage you in this role because you perform some useful function in organizing the get-togethers and shilling for the sponsors?
Again with the personal James. Trust me I am neither the SN enforcer or a shil for the moderators. The Rondevous are also for members of this site as well as other sites and all sailors on the Chesapeake. You could come, but that would mean you couldn't hide like on the Internet. If you displayed this behavior in person it might be dealt with differently.
I have nothing to prove sailing wise to myself or anyone else. I am comfortable in my own skin. I thoroughly enjoy this period of my life, after raising kids and approaching retirement, with the type and amount of sailing I do now, which by the way far exceeds yours even at this point. I watched my daughter by her first keelboat last year a 27 Catalina and she's teaching her new husband how to sail on Barneget Bay.
I really am quite fulfilled sailing with my wife sharing new places, friendships, and am looking forward to our chances to do long range cruising in a different boat in the future like some of our friends on here. I get plenty of time singlehanding Halekula, but really I like when my wife and I are together on her.
Even at this moment we are anchored, rafted up with friends enjoying a beautiful sunrise, breakfast and commradiere on the Chesapeake n the Magothy River while you hide solo behind your computer. Priceless sharing experiences with my wife and friends. No need to have the loneliness of going a solo.
Seek your own personal challenges James. Everyone's are different, and you certainly don't have the credentials, experience, or right to criticize others about theirs. We are in different places in life. I said my wife's experience has long passed yours not only in the Chesapeake but offshore and the gap widens every year. We sail safely and alert, nothing to prove but enjoying ourselves.
Give us a all a breaks from your personal animus.

PLUS Diagnostics Launches Expert Genitourinary Pathology Consultation Service
UNION, N.J., Nov. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — PLUS Diagnostics, a national anatomic pathology laboratory announced today that it is launching an Expert Genitourinary (GU) pathology consultation service. Building on the expertise of a nationally recognized GU pathologist, Dr. Adnan Savera, who was recently appointed by PLUS Diagnostics as the Executive Medical Director and National Director of GU Pathology, this service would be of benefit to urologists, patients and pathologists who are seeking second opinion consultations for a variety of routine and challenging urologic specimens.
Dr. Savera is a leader in the field and has been providing GU pathology second opinion consultations for almost a decade, including such consultative diagnosis for thousands of patients at a large academic urology referral center. He was a senior staff physician at Henry Ford Hospital, where he led GU pathology services and research and played an instrumental role in revamping the hospital's GU pathology service to support the launch of its globally acclaimed robotic prostate surgery program.
Dr. Savera has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for his contributions to the field of prostate cancer and is also listed as one of America's top physicians by the Consumer Research Council of America. Dr. Savera most recently served as Chief GU pathologist and medical director for a private lab and offered specialized urologic pathology and consultation services nationwide.
"The addition of Dr. Savera to our team is another example of our commitment to providing the highest quality of service to our customers and patients. He is one of the best and brightest talents in GU Pathology," said Dr. Mohammad Kamal, chief medical officer, PLUS Diagnostics. "Dr. Savera has played a vital role in further development of our national GU Pathology program as we continue to introduce new services and state-of-the-art technologies. The GU consultation service is another step in this direction and makes it effortless for a clinician or patient to take advantage of Dr. Savera's expertise and obtain an expert second opinion and other recommendations."
Dr. Savera completed his internship at Howard University Hospital, his pathology residency at Henry Ford Hospital and oncologic pathology fellowship at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. He has participated in numerous research grants funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and has authored more than 70 peer-reviewed papers and abstracts.
"Given that the interpretation of many urologic specimens can be challenging for general pathologists and that pathologic diagnosis is the foundation for all subsequent patient treatment, obtaining a second opinion from an expert, especially for those with equivocal (atypical) and malignant diagnoses is highly recommended," said Dr. Savera.
About PLUS Diagnostics
PLUS Diagnostics is a leading national pathology company that provides a full range of multi-specialty services, including extensive diagnostic procedures and specialist consultations. Accredited by the College of American Pathologists, PLUS Diagnostics has long been recognized for exceptional service and quality. The company currently focuses on a broad base of specialty pathology services, including urology, gastroenterology and hematopathology. For more information, visit, www.plusdx.com.

AFC West rivals limp into San Diego after divisional losses
Joel Roza's Thursday Night Football Pick
CORPUS CHRISTI - Just a little picks teaser ahead of my regular picks. I always missed this game last season, so this is my editor's solution. Consider this like you would an album single or an EP.
Raiders (4-4) at Chargers (4-4)
NFL Network – 7:20 p.m.
Line: Chargers by 7
- Midway through the third quarter last week, the Raiders led 24-14 over the Denver Broncos. From there, Hue Jackson made a critical error by having Carson Palmer throw, throw and throw at Denver, begging the Broncos to pick off the newly-acquired, past-his-prime quarterback in the midst of stretches when Oakland could've eaten valuable clock, which was possible given Michael Bush's performance (96 yards on 19 carries). Denver's offense was put in great positions, and Oakland's run defense decided to not exist as Willis McGahee, Tebow and the Broncos earned a 38-24 win.
The Chargers aren't much better coming off "The Phumble" against Kansas City last week, but I can't in good conscience believe, or think about thinking about believing, that Carson Palmer can win a road game in San Diego when this team can't even protect a 10-point second half lead at home against Denver.
Pick: Chargers

Burlington (39 miles)
... fun at all!" Thanks for the observation, dude. Many other cars pulled up and just about everyone had some little remark about how what I was doing was hard or how they'd never want to be in my place. What a contrast to my last interaction with people. As I was finishing up repacking, I heard one last "you look like you're having no fun at all" from the first man as he drove away. Oh man ...
2nd day driving.....
... Liam procured a souvenir from the "Adult Themed" vending machine in the men's room. Horny Goat Weed. He was surprised to find the main ingredient to be: Horny Goat Weed!
Back in the RV it was finally my turn to take the helm. I chickened out since I have watched Rob struggle to control this beast like he was hoisting a sail on a boat and not sway off. Did I tell you that no one in this group is impressed with the RV???
Pike's Peak and Bust
... with sweeping curves through pines and rocks steadily climbing from around 6,000 foot elevation slowly watching Colorado Springs getting smaller and smaller with each set of upward curves. Passing the bluest lakes you have ever seen. Crystal clear full of clean mountain water. This is Sasquatch country and a sign was there indicating such at mile marker 6. It was stated that it was a crossing. Soon the steepness became more evident ...
Day 4 - Colorado Springs Here We Come!
... checked into the Broadmoor. Our room was in the penthouse (5th floor) of Broadmoor West. It was the largest room we've had so far with a nice view of the lake that is central to the resort property.
It didn't take long for the kids to hit the pool and the famed water slides. Canyon and I took a paddle boat on the lake (pictures below) and Canyon provided some interesting video of each water slide (also below).
Dinner was in one ...
Almost in Colorado, again.
... built in 1907-1909 and given to the Seward Country Historical Society.
Bit further on we drove by Fort Riley, there was hundreds of Black Hawk and Choctaw helicopters on the airfield. Very impressive.
Also saw a sign for the Custer Museum.
We have decided to stay at Goodland, Kansas, tonight.
About an hour after we arrive, a storm hits. Some hail and wind, but again not too bad.

Buying advice: £1,001+ power PCs, December 07 issue
Processor: They might soon face some serious competition from AMD's quad-core processors but, for now, the Core 2s reign supreme. In fact, Intel has been busy adding to its line-up - the quad-core QX6850 is the latest fantastic addition.
Quad-core processors potentially offer 50 to 100 percent extra performance in applications that are programmed to take advantage of the extra cores included within each chip. Don't expect multicore apps and games to flood in, but in a couple of years the software landscape could shift dramatically - and the higher the number of cores, the more impressive the performance boost is likely to be.
You can still get the dual-core E6750 and E6850 processors at good prices. And these chips are devastatingly fast, so don't discount them.
Memory: No sooner had we welcomed the age of the 2GB PC than 4GB machines started appearing in our charts. Three of the models in this chart now include this much memory.
If you want your PC to cope easily with programs in 2008 and beyond, 4GB is the key - but 2GB remains a decent option if you want to save money. For the best performance, buy from a high-quality memory maker such as Corsair.
Storage: Unbelievably, anything less than 500GB is now considered a small amount of storage - the PCs in our £1,001+ chart come with between 500GB and 1TB of hardware space. Unless you specialise in a particularly gigabyte-hungry pastime such as video, 500GB should be more than enough. Make sure you get serial ATA cabling for rapid transfer rates.
Cover backup with a multi-format DVD writer. Dual-layer capabilities (allowing you to store 8.5GB rather than 4.7GB on a disc) are a must, and you should make sure the drive supports DVD+R DL at eight-speed or more. Eight-speed DVD-R DL is nice but not essential, and look for good eight-speed DVD+RW facilities. Other optional formats include DVD-RAM.
Display: You might think all of the flat-panels found in this category would be of superior quality - but you'd be mistaken. The PCs in our chart mostly come with 22in displays, but you should be careful when choosing screens larger than this. Some bigger models produce poor colours and fuzzy images, which might cause problems for those with sensitive eyes. If in doubt, 22in screens are safer bets, but you'll have to accept inferior resolution support.
Graphics cards: At this price point, you should be able to get something rather startling. The GeForce 8800 Ultra is undoubtedly the most prized acquisition. Its support for DirectX 10.0 means Vista adopters can look forward to some impressive games titles in the future.
The Ultra also has bags of performance and sizzling features. The 8800 GTX is nearly as good and, as stocks dwindle, could be available at a juicy price. However, you shouldn't overlook their slightly less exciting sibling, the 8800 GTS, nor the brand-new ATI HD 2900 XT. The latter can't keep up with the Ultra and GTX, but it will eclipse even the 640MB version of the 8800 GTS.
Sound card and speakers: Onboard or integrated sound has come on in leaps and bounds, with support for 7.1 channel sound - but it's still no match for a decent sound card. Hunt around and you should be able to get a PC with a Creative Audigy card or, better still, one from the excellent X-Fi range. If you only want 2.1-channel speakers, make sure they're high-quality. Most manufacturers are bundling 5.1-channel speakers. Strangely, 7.1 speakers are becoming less common but, if you want audio excellence, you'd be best off holding out for a set of these.

ROCKFORD — The Historic Village of Rockford and the Rockford General Store have hosted the Rockford Civil War Battle and Living History Weekend for nine years, with reenactors portraying life in camp, drill, tactics and battle, including the Bond School House Shootout that occurred between local militia and men hiding in the Bond School House on Feb. 12, 1863, near Deep Creek Friends Church in Yadkin County.
Reenactors from the 7th NC Calvary, along with the 21st Infantry, 63rd NC, 12th NC, 38th NCT, 24th VA Infantry, 6th NC, and the NC 28th camped out on site all weekend, dressed in period clothing, with many bringing their families to experience the life of a Civil War soldier.
The smell of country ham was heavy in the air around the Rockford General Store, as folks inside prepared food to feed the reenactors and visitors who arrived in Rockford to enjoy the battle and Living History Weekend. Co-owner Pam Foy said the weekend is the start of the tourist season in Rockford, and added that they always bring in extra help to work for the weekend.
Freshly-prepared fried apple pies were plentiful, but were selling out fast, as Foy said they do almost every weekend. "They are our most popular food item. We make them every Friday morning, and have them until they are sold out, but we also have people who call ahead of time, before they come, and tell us to hold some for them," Foy said.
The general store also was selling coffee, biscuits, sandwiches, burgers and just for this weekend, they had homemade chicken stew and pintos and cornbread. Many people were taking home fried apple pies and chicken stew for loved ones who didn't get to make the trip.
Prior to the Battle of Rockford, Part 1 and Bond School House Shootout, reenactors were enjoying their camps, sitting around campfires and chatting with friends. Tammy Rhyne, from the Charlotte-area, said this was her first year participating in the Rockford Civil War Battle, but she added that she has participated in many other reenactments. This was also her son's first time and they were there with her husband, she added, part of the 28th NC group. She was watching several children play in the camp and crocheting a yellow scarf for her niece by the campfire. She was dressed in period clothing and wearing a pin she made from her grandmother's pin, with old-fashioned pictures of her husband and son.
Also in the camp were husband and wife Dawn and Damon Wilson, who traveled from Hamptonville with their children. They enjoyed camping in period tents on Friday night, and planned to camp on Saturday night as well. Damon said he was interested in participating in reenactments because he had family in the Civil War, including his great-grandfather. When he married Dawn, she became involved as well. Damon is a physician's assistant and this is his first year serving as a medical officer for the camp, with his son Seth, 14, serving as his orderly sergeant and daughter Mikayla, 10, and wife Dawn as his nurses. Mikayla said her favorite part of the weekend is camping, and Seth said he loves the battles, especially because he gets to be in them this year.
Dana Quesinberry of Rockford was enjoying interacting with the reenactors and walking around the camps with her daughter Kacyn, 1, and son Cord, 3. She said Cord enjoys the soldiers, who taught him how to carry his toy gun at shoulder arms last year. She was there with her dad U.E. Martin, who was born in Rockford, and brother Doug Martin.
Although a Civil War battle did not take place in Rockford, there is a Civil War Trail sign in the village, at York Tavern, commemorating April 1 and 2, 1865, when Stoneman's Raiders passed through Rockford on their way to Virginia. In nearby Siloam, Stoneman's Calvary encountered armed resistance from Confederate Maj. Richard Reeves and a colonel who was recuperating in the major's home. The two men fled after killing a Union trooper and escaped.
Rockford was once the county seat of Surry County, when it encompassed Forsyth, Stokes, Yadkin, Davie and Rowan counties. The county seat moved to Dobson in 1850. Many original buildings still stand, including Jesse Lester Tavern, built in 1790; the railroad section foreman's house, built in 1883; the Robert Clark Store; and the Rockford General Store, built in 1890. The remains of the Grant-Burrus Hotel, built in 1796, burnt in 1974, but the remains were made into a park, across from the general store.
