ALLARD PIERSON MUSEUM - Antiquities
Allard Pierson Museum is the archaeological museum of the University of Amsterdam.
The museum is housed in a nice classical building formerly from the Nederlandsche Bank. Allard Pierson was a professor who started the collections on the civilisations of ancient Egypt (on the first floor), the Near East, Cyprus, the Greek world, Etruria and the Roman world (on the second floor). Another professor J. Six completed the collection.
This collection has not the importance of the British museum or Le Louvre but the Art-objects and utensils, give a good insight of everyday-life, mythology and religion in Antiquity. They are displayed in a modern way.
Room 2 on mummification is interesting as well as the large scale model of Olympia.
Photos are allowed so that I set up a travelogue with some art-objects I liked.

Allard Pierson Museum
This museum is devoted to meditterranian archaeology. I stumbled across it while wandering the city and was very impressed by its collection. It had a scale model of ancient Olympia which gave me a much better sense of the site than I got when actually visiting it in Greece :)
I also liked its Egyptian collection, which was very well presented.

The Archaeological Museum of the University of Amsterdam shows objects from ancient Mediterranean cultures (Malta, Cyprus, Greece, Egypt and Etruria). The articles exhibited date from 4000 BC – 1000 AD. Very interesting is the mummification room, where you can see how the ancient Egyptians used to embalm and bury dead people!

Archaeological Museum
Archaeological Museum of the University of Amsterdam, or ALLARD PIERSON MUSEUM is also a great place to visit in Amsterdam. In the recently installed Egyptian department you can see a model of the Pyramid of Cheops and other pyramids at Giza, and mummies and funerary and ritual objects; a computer prints out your name in hieroglyphics. Ancient Greece, Rome, Etruria, and Cyprus are among the best represented of other cultures, with pottery, sculpture, glassware, jewelry, coins, and household objects.
The Allard Pierson museum of archaeology is rather quiet, with not so many visitors, and you can take your time and admire the nice antiques (really antiques pieces of art .. or just pieces of that times - that's also very valuable after few thousand years).
The admission is free with the Amsterdam Pass, or 4,3 EUR (adult) / 1,4 EUR (12-16) / 1 EUR (4-12) without, so basicaly it's cheap and a recommended visit.

I bought these about three weeks ago along with some Image Dynamics CTX-4 coax speakers and let me tell you that they sound amazing. It took about a week at 80hz for them to break in but after that all I have is sonic bliss. If you are looking for a great set of comps up front and a matching set of coax's in the rear, you would be hard pressed to find a better set for the money. Thanks Sonic for getting me the lowest price.

Swedish Lung Screening Program Meets and Exceeds the Standard of Care
This is an exciting and pivotal time for those at risk for lung cancer and those caring for patients on the front lines of healthcare. This recent recommendation and understanding that LDCT screening in high-risk people saves lives and also means ...
Celebrating Lung Cancer Awareness Month in a BIG Way!
Swedish Cancer Institute and Seattle Radiology have been screening for lung cancer by low dose CT scan since 2000 as Principal Investigators in the International Early Lung Cancer Action Program, an international screening registry. This program, in addition to the large National Lung Screening Trial by the National Cancer Institute and several other international lung screening research trials, has been instrumental in delivering the need for lung cancer screening to the forefront and addressing this dreadful cancer in a complete face off. This research has clearly demonstrated an ability to significantly improve survival and save lives by early detection of lung cancer through routine low dose CT scan imaging.
Nearly a year ago the United States Preventive Services Task Force made a formal Grade B recommendation for lung cancer screening, by low dose CT scan, in high-risk people. People ..
Join Swedish Cancer Institute at Seattle's Lung Force Walk on June 7
The American Lung Association (ALA) has dedicated 100+ years to promoting lung health through prevention of tuberculosis, cleaner air, smoking prevention, and providing resources to those who wish to quit smoking.
In their fight for healthy lungs, the ALA has taken on a fight with lung cancer. Lung cancer is the #1 leading cause of cancer deaths in America for men and women. This initiative against lung cancer is called Lung Force.
Swedish Cancer Institute has a long history of fighting lung cancer through research, early detection via low dose CT screening, staging of lung cancer, surgical and medical therapies, and palliation of lung cancer.
In support of the ALA and their efforts to spread awareness of the risks of lung cancer, raising funds for lung cancer research and providing advocacy for those affected by lung cancer, Swedish will participate in the Lung Force Walk on June 7th, in Seattle.
We welcome you to join Team Swedish for a fun filled morning of music, the 5K walk, and festivities at the finish line. You can register for the walk for free and/or make a donation in any amount that you wish. Dogs are invited to walk too!

Nicotine addiction and quitting smoking
The presence of tobacco dates back at least 8,000 years in the world's history. Throughout time, this plant was central to religious ceremonies, thought to have healing powers, delivered as gifts, traded for goods, and smoked by many. As early as the mid 1700s tobacco was formally manufactured and distributed in the form of cigarettes. Interestingly doctors were featured in promotional cigarette ads in the 1930s. However, the ill effects of tobacco were identified long before this and Massachusetts state law banned smoking in public in 1632.
Nicotine is a stimulant and a very addictive substance contained in tobacco. It is extremely easy to become addicted to nicotine. With repeated exposure to the chemical, the brain's nicotinic receptors crave more and drive the need to smoke at higher levels. Nicotine is well known for its pleasurable physiological and psychological side effects. These pleasurable side effects result in addiction to the substance and make it difficult to quit smoking, even when an individual is highly motivated to stop. Tobacco companies have complicated this addiction by adding numerous other addictive chemicals that strengthen the difficulty in quitting, making cigarettes the most common form of chemical dependency in this country.
Use of cigarettes in the United States (U.S.) has dropped considerably since an all-time consumption high of 640 billion cigarettes in 1981. Currently the U.S. consumption is about half that volume but smoking remains the leading cause of preventable illnesses and death in this country; attributing....
What's New in Lung Cancer Screening?
For too long lung cancer has been detected too late to benefit from the most effective treatments. Screening for lung cancer with Low Dose CT (LDCT) has been shown in large research trials to reverse this trend. There is now cause for optimism that screening has the potential to change the negative statistics around lung cancer.
The current reality is that lung cancer related deaths in our country has surpassed those of prostate, breast, and colon cancers combined. Although smokers are not the only people at risk for lung cancer they are at much higher risk than the average population. In fact, if they have a smoking history of 1 pack per day for 30 years or more, are actively smoking or have quit in the last 15 years and are now 55 years old or older, they are considered in a higher risk group for developing lung cancer and would benefit from being screened to detect lung cancer early and at a treatable state.
The last decade has been pivotal in ....
Are you or someone you know at risk for lung cancer and should you be screened?
As lung cancer awareness month approaches us in November, we think about what lung cancer risk means to ourselves, friends, family members, and our patients. Many don't know that lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S., far surpassing the rates of other cancers like breast, colon, and prostate.
What's the risk of getting lung cancer?
The health risks from cigarette smoking are considerable and pose the largest risk for lung cancer; more than any other risk factors combined. Men who smoke are at 23 x the increased risk and women at 16 x the risk for lung cancer. This lung cancer risk is directly correlated with the concentration of (numbers of cigarettes smoked each day) X (number of years smoked).
Fortunately, the number of those who have quit smoking is growing, but sadly, more than half of all newly diagnosed lung cancers today are occurring in former smokers or non-smokers. People who have quit smoking remain at continued risk for lung cancer and there is also concern about lung cancer in second-hand smoke exposure.
The positive news on lung cancer is that two large multicenter research trials have been conducted in the past 12 years. The Swedish Cancer Institute was a major study site for one of these trials in association with Seattle Radiology. These trials have very clearly and consistently shown significant benefit in the early detection of lung cancer with low dose CT scan, reducing lung cancer mortality by 20%.
Who should be screened and how?
Understanding who is at risk for lung cancer is helpful but identifying...

The safety of students, staff and visitors on the Hudson Valley campus
is the primary concern of the Public Safety department. These are some
of the things we do to keep you safe:
Continuously surveying and recommending where additional or brighter
lighting is needed.
Inform the college's Physical Plant department when lights are out.
Increase the number of outdoor emergency phones and check their service.
Provide escort services.
Maintain uniformed patrols in the college's parking lots as frequently
as possible.
Even with all the steps and precautions we take, we still need your help.
Here are some suggestions we hope you'll consider:
Try to leave your classes or buildings with others. Be cognizant of your surroundings. If it appears that someone is following or watching you, get to a blue light or campus phone and call Public Safety.
If you are a victim of a crime, or if you witness one, report it to Public Safety at immediately. Hudson Valley also offers many forms of support including the college's Health Service and counseling services.
When parking on campus in the evening, try to park in a well-lit
area near buildings.
If you arrive on campus early in the day and have to park a considerable
distance from an evening class, go out before dark and move your vehicle
to a spot near the building your class is in.
Report suspicious activities. If something doesn't seem right (for example,
if someone is sitting in a vehicle and watching you), report it.
Don't hesitate to request an escort. They're free.

Morsi Code: Egypt Goes to the Polls
But the Egyptian military has other ideas
Unless Egyptian politics are among your father's most cherished hobbies, it's possible that you missed the swirl of election news out of Cairo yesterday. Here's what happened:
The Muslim Brotherhood (unsurprisingly) predicted that its own candidate, Mohamed Morsi, had pulled out a decisive electoral victory over Ahmed Shafik, a former Air Force general and the last prime minister selected by Hosni Mubarak before he was deposed. In pro-athlete fashion, Morsi thanked God for his victory. And so ended the first-ever free Egyptian presidential election, an affair marked by various boycotts, a low voter turnout, and accusations of fraud. One of the simmering controversies involved the decision by Egypt's Supreme Constitutional Court to allow Shafik to run some two days before the election, despite the law forbidding Mubarak-era officials from holding office.
But of much greater consequence were the actions of the Egyptian military, which dissolved the Egyptian Parliament on Friday and then wrote its very own constitution on Sunday. Aided by Mubarak-appointed judges, the military guaranteed itself powers that would greatly dwarf the role of the new Egyptian president (whoever that might ultimately be). Through the interim document, the military will have immunity from oversight, total power of the purse, and control of all laws.
So, what does all this mean? In the short term, it means that military rule in Egypt is not going away just yet. It could also mean that the Muslim Brotherhood and Morsi, ostensibly the popularly elected Islamist president of Egypt, may take their case to their streets, perhaps violently. They may find some support. Egyptians are tired of military rule, and the Muslim Brotherhood knows it.
With news of some flare-ups on the border between Israel and Egypt this morning (as well as reports that the rocket fire that hit Israel on Friday came at the behest of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt), renewed instability in Egypt is unwelcome news.

News of a favorable clinical trial for the drug, eteplirsen, rocketed Sarepta shares (ticker: SRPT) to $35 from $15.53 last week, giving the company an $800 million stock-market value. Wall Street is betting Sarepta wins accelerated approval from the Food and Drug Administration in 2013 and markets the drug by 2014.
Barron's has written favorably on Sarepta, most recently this past April and August, with the stock around $10. The trial showed that eteplirsen stimulated production of dystrophin in muscle cells. Dystrophin, critical to muscle health, is missing in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Four boys showed improvement on a six-minute walking test after 48 weeks on high levels of the drug, while those who got a placebo for 24 weeks and eteplirsen for 24 weeks showed a decline in their walking. Thus, eteplirsen might reverse the course of the disease, not just halt its progression.
That result "is astounding, given that boys of this age [about 10 years old] with DMD essentially never show improvement" in the walk test, wrote Wedbush analyst Gregory Wade, in lifting his price target to $70 from $26. He thinks eteplirsen could generate $450 million in peak annual sales.
An estimated 1,800 U.S. boys have the genetic mutation that eteplirsen addresses. Sarepta is working on drugs for two other mutations that affect over 1,000 boys here.

Barron'swrote favorably on MetroPCS in 2010, noting that the company could be deal bait for a larger competitor ("MetroPCS Makes the Right Calls," May 17, 2010). The shares are up 45% since then, compared with a 29% gain for the Standard & Poor's 500.

The general objective of the lab is to explore the crosstalk between the transcription machinery, the RNA it produces, and the chromatin.
Currently, we are focusing on chromatin factors best known for their role in long-term transcriptional repression (Silencing) and on the function these factors may have in regulating gene-expression and alternative splicing outside of constitutive heterochromatin.
Alternative splicing affects the activity of Silencing proteins
We have investigated how alternative splicing affects the function of two human histone methyltransferases (HMTase): G9A and SUV39H2. We show that a wide range of tissues express multiple isoforms of these proteins, each displaying activity, stability, or sub-nuclear localization.

Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday said that her party is contesting the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections for forming a government and not for striking a coalition with any party.
"Congress is not contesting these elections to forge a coalition with any party but for forming its government," Ms. Gandhi said at an election meeting in Chamrauli area this afternoon.
"Congress would establish a relationship of trust with the people and would stand by them in the good and bad times", he said.
While stating that there was no difference between the BJP, BSP and Samajwadi Party, Ms. Gandhi said all these parties have entered into alliances with each other at different times and ruined the state by distributing chairs (posts) to serve their vested interests.
The Congress president lamented that for the past 20 to 22 years the governments taking over the reins had betrayed the people and instead of developing the state have dragged it behind.
"There had been the rule of either the criminals or corrupt," she said.
Referring to the various welfare schemes of the UPA government like the loan waiver for farmers and package for weavers, she said that had it not happened things would have been worse.

Arcteryx Women's Phase SV Long Sleeve Zip Neck
The Arc'teryx Women's Phase SV Long Sleeve Zip Neck is a cold weather base layer for alpine adventures.

FEATURES of the Arcteryx Women's Phase SV Long Sleeve Zip Neck
- Phasic fabric has soft touch and exceptional moisture management properties
- Composite construction reduces bulk, improves thermal regulation
- Flat locked seams improve next-to-skin comfort
- Encapsulated silver ions reduce odours

- Fit: Next-to-skin
ARC'TERYX NEXT to SKIN FIT: These snug-fitting garments are made with stretch fabrics to fit next to the skin and enhance moisture management and thermal efficiency. Arc'teryx next to skin fit pieces constructed with their heavier-weight AR and SV fabrics also perform very well as mid layer pieces, so you should consider sizing up to accommodate a base layer underneath if the intention is to use this as a mid layer option if you are building a layering system.

So far I have only used this base layer once to climb a mountain, but I am loving this base layer so much. I was very hesitant about the zipper because I was worried it would be cold against my skin, but there are some little fabric flaps that you can't see in the pictures that protect your skin. In addition, I found that even after I was sweating, I didn't feel wet, and it managed to dry fast enough not to freeze at all after I removed some other layers. The fit was great (I am 5'3, 110lbs, and the small was perfect). This base layer moved with me and kept me comfortable all day long. The only bad thing is that in the description it says that this is supposed to smell less bad, but at the end of my trip, this thing smelt just as awful as I did. Overall, I thought this base layer was perfect. Just don't count on it to mask your smell.
I bought this base layer for a ski/boarding trip and felt it worked fantastic to keep me warm. Love the zip on it; felt kind of tight at first but ended up working out well after layering. I am guessing this is part of the design as well as helps to trap heat. Not only does it function very well as a base layer it also looks very nice and compliments a woman's figure. I would suggest this base layer to anyone looking to ski/board at colder times or if you want to only wear a light base layer and a wind breaker during spring skiing. Great buy!

In the past, I would use a "Spam Keybind" (pressing F every 2-3 seconds) that had two copies of EPtS and EPtW (as well as Fire All Beams and Balance Shields) attached on it. This worked great to keep the EPtX abilities chaining and keep my Weapons and Shield power as high as possible. This was when I used my Excel mostly for tanking and pressure, which aren't needed so much in STFs anymore (and I got bored not killing anything by myself - Yeah, I know, fly an Escort... Sorry, for this character, I like my Cruiser.
Now I've got 2x AtB (w/3x Purple Techs), and 1x each EPtS and EPtW - And these are all on my F spam keybind. But it doesn't seem to be working right on the CD, especially with my other abilities I care to use (like FAW, ATB, and DEM, which I trigger separately, as needed, via a 2nd keybind).
Should I remove the AtB from the Spam Keybind and just trigger them manually as I need CD reduction? I've read this whole thread, and keybinds aren't mentioned much, so I'm wondering if that's how you guys do it? Here's my basic build info:
8x Beam Boat (Romulan Plasmas and a Cutting Beam)
EPtS1, A2B1, RSP2, DEM3
EPtW1, A2B1
Assim Modual, Zero Point, Neutronium, Electroceramic
All Embassy Shield Emitters w/Pla and -Th tags
All Plasma Infusers
Goal would be to keep the EPtS and EPtW chaining, while having the FAW, APB, and DEM available as often as possible. I'm not sure why I have the EPtA in there, honestly. I thought it might help get Aux back if needed, but it's never available, I'm considering changing it to an ET1 or ???). Any advise on timing would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Publishing this July: Building Capitalism from Routledge Revivals
First published in 1992, this Routledge Revival sees the reissue of a truly original exploration of the nature of urbanization and capitalism.
First published in 1992 Linda Clarke's Building Capitalism: Historical Change and the Labour Process in the Production of the Built Environment continues to provide an exemplary study of the social relations and labor processes involved in producing the built environment. Through the case study of the development of Somers Town from Brill Farm from the end of the eighteenth to the early nineteenth centuries, we discover how the built environment of London reflects the change from artisan to industrial production, from the craftsman-builder to the contractor, and, in particular the development of wage labor.
This conception of urbanisation as a social labor process engaged in production is fundamentally different from the more usual physically-based view of the city as a conglomeration of built products. Drawing on a wide range of original material, including maps and other illustrations, we discover how the activity - including the production of building materials and infrastructure - which produced the world's first metropolis, illustrates the transition from a feudal to a capitalist mode of building production.
Editor Linda Clarke will shortly be appearing at LONDONICITY 2011 to promote the reissue of this book.
Building Capitalism is due to publish on the 30th of July. Order your copy today!

The role of Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists in the United States

Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) have been providing anesthesia care in the United States (US) for nearly 150 years. Historically, anesthesia care for surgical patients was mainly provided by trained nurses under the supervision of surgeons until the establishment of anesthesiology as a medical specialty in the US. Currently, all 50 US states utilize CRNAs to perform various kinds of anesthesia care, either under the medical supervision of anesthesiologists in most states, or independently without medical supervision in 16 states; the latter has become an on-going source of conflict between anesthesiologists and CRNAs. Understanding the history and current conditions of anesthesia practice in the US is crucial for countries in which the shortage of anesthesia care providers has become a national issue.

HUNTSVILLE – It will be a hectic week at the Huntsville Place Mall as two stores open new locations.
Lindsay Edwards, marketing and promotions manager for the mall, said the flurry of new business activity has revitalized the atmosphere at the shopping centre.
"It's a whole new look for the mall. There's a new mentality and a new vibe. And I think the community is going to see it, too," said Edwards. "It really is all at the mall."
The week begins with the reopening of Stylish Tailoring's new location on April 1.
Edwards said the clothing alteration and repair shop, which previously sat between Metro and Coles, plans to expand into suit and prom dress sales in its new, larger location.
And she was expecting a flurry of early morning activity as Winners, a clothing and home décor department store, was slated to open April 3.
"We have seen a huge traffic influx with people coming to check it out even before it opened," said Edwards.
She said the mall planned to open its doors the day of the grand opening at 7 a.m. so shoppers could start lining up. Department store staff was expected to hand out a limited number of gift cards leading up to the store's doors opening at 9 a.m.
And the first few shoppers who stepped into the store could expect gifts of Maple Bluff Farms maple syrup.
"Winners chose to do maple syrup because we're in Muskoka," said Edwards. "And there are going to do a lot of community work as well."
The store is expected to bring 40 to 60 jobs to the community.
She said the store planned a long list of other celebratory activities in the mall as well on opening day.
And other stores in the mall were joining the festivities.
For example, Ricki's and Bootlegger planned to host an employment search from 2 to 5 p.m., Ugly Mugg Café and Sandwich Shop planned a breakfast special, and charitable organizations were setting up booths.
Hundreds of people were expected to attend the opening, which took place as this paper was hitting newsstands.
But the list of openings at the mall continues.
Edwards said Maurices, a women's clothing retail chain, has leased three units at the mall.
"It will be a huge store," she said.
Renovations will be underway until June to prepare the space for the new store.
The addition of the clothing store will require Popp's Convenience Store, a long-time mall tenant, to relocate to another unit.
Edwards could not confirm an opening date for Maurices, nor for Sport Chek and Dollarama, which are both coming to the mall as well.
But she said the additions to the mall are welcome.
She said the changes are affecting the way people view the mall and she has heard several compliments from community members.

Dr Reddy's Laboratories expects price cuts in some of its generic products in the US, notably in injectables space, as more rivals enter.
Abhijit Mukherjee, chief operating officer, said the contribution from the injectable products sustained through the first quarter as there was no noticeable competitive entry.
However, with more competitors entering the market, there are possibilities of price erosion in all generic products, he said. "The other ones is a part of the business but we don't expect very large impact in there. But injectables would be the biggest hit, if more people (rivals) come in," he said during the first quarter earnings conference call with analysts.
The company posted better-than-expected first quarter results, with net profit increasing 52% year on year to Rs 550 crore during the April-June quarter.
Net sales grew 23.6% yoy to Rs 3,518 crore. North America, which contributes around 47% to the company's overall revenues, saw a 51% growth in sales, driven mostly by niche and limited-competition generics products such as Toprol XL, Zenatane, Geodon and the injectable segment.
On rising competition, he said, "It's been a good run since our launch. There are three or four products that are in the limited competition space. We hear about a competition in one of the assets soon, though not yet in the market. But would it be an onslaught of number of competitors? We don't think so as yet. But like in all generic products, a gradual erosion is expected as more people come in."
Commenting on the distribution channel consolidation underway in the US, Mukherjee said, "We've seen erosion in certain products in some places. In few cases, we've given up, but again in quite a few cases, we've retained, but there is a substantial cost. The US market is also governed by factors of some price increases, some shared increases, and some erosions, and sum total of these three governs the base business, and the launches add to the growth. Broadly between these three factors, which I've mentioned, we've been able to keep it somewhat neutral."
Ranjit Kapadia, senior VP – pharma, Centrum Broking, said Dr Reddy's is expecting some price erosion in two generic products though they have not given out the names. "It is quite obvious that if more players come in for a particular product, price will definitely fall. But the US is a big market for the company, and so even if there are some price cuts they will not be very substantial," he said.
Hitesh Mahida, pharma analyst with Antique Stock Broking, said, "As more players join the market, price erosion will happen. But usually for Dr Reddy's, most of their products are in the limited-competition space. So even if there are some price erosion, it would be slow and gradual."

When a college basketball team travels, the players tend to stand out in airports.
Saturday, a few hours after winning its 15th straight game to start the 2003-04 season, Saint Joseph's was going through airport security in Cincinnati when a TSA employee singled out one of the Hawks.
The woman with the wand didn't approach the player for more screening. She just questioned his role with Saint Joseph's. The player was walking among the tall group of players, but his size made it hard to believe he was actually one of the group.
Yes, ma'am ... Jameer Nelson is a player.
In fact, at the midway point of the 2003-04 season, the Saint Joseph's senior guard is the leading candidate for national player of the year honors.
The security woman obviously isn't a college basketball fan, nor was she one of those at Xavier earlier that afternoon who watched Nelson score 28 points in helping the Hawks beat the Minutemen, 81-73.
"She was like, 'Are you on the basketball team?'" Nelson said. "I said yes. And then she said, 'You must be the water boy, you're so short."
"He's amazing," Saint Joseph's coach Phil Martelli said. "He just cracked up and kept going. I've got the best player in the game and nothing fazes him, not that, not 10,000 people at Xavier, not 17 NBA teams being represented, not Larry Bird sitting courtside Saturday."
Maybe it has something to do with Nelson's lack of national attention. Unlike recent years when the nation's best players all had faces the nation knew by this time of the season, Nelson has played in all but a vacuum in Philly. The security woman isn't alone. Outside of fans devoted to the college game, few in the general public know Nelson from, well, the water boy.
Yet, with two months to go before Selection Sunday, it's Nelson that is the favorite for the Wooden Award or any other national player of the year honor.
Why? We'll let some of his peers, a teammate and Martelli clue you into Nelson's game. And, while there are certainly other candidates within striking distance -- such as Connecticut teammates Emeka Okafor and Ben Gordon, Syracuse's Hakim Warrick, Texas Tech's Andre Emmett, Louisville's Francisco Garcia and Kentucky's Gerald Fitch -- the award is all but Nelson's to lose in the second half of the season.
While all the players above could all end up making a strong case to be first-team All-America, none has as strong a case for player of the year as Nelson. And, ironically, the player who doesn't even measure 6-feet tall (Nelson is listed at 5-11) is a step or two ahead of the tallest contender -- 6-9 Okafor, who was a popular preseason pick for the honor and hasn't done anything to hurt his case.
It's just Nelson has done more than anyone expected, on a team exceeding all expectations to this point.
Just look at how those around Nelson and competing against the senior guard define the criteria for a player of the year.
Martelli: "The player of the year should clearly be the best at his position, has to perform in the team's biggest games and should be consistently excellent."
Sounds like Nelson, all right.
Emmett: "He needs to get the players around you better. Winning must be there, too."
Well, the Hawks are one of only four unbeaten teams in the country and Nelson's backcourt mate Delonte West is also enjoying a career season.
Garcia: "He's got to carry his team. He has to be the leader and must make his teammates better."
Nelson started the season with a statement, falling just two rebounds short of a triple-double (20 points, 10 rebounds, eight assists) in the Hawks' victory over Gonzaga in Madison Square Garden.
Fitch: "Your team has to win. You have to be the leader. And you've got to make big plays. You have to take your team far (in the tournament)."
The Hawks are still perfect in large part to Nelson's game-winning jumper with 4.3 seconds to play in a 59-57 victory over California in Oakland, Calif on Dec. 20. It's the closest the Hawks have come to losing. As for the NCAA Tournament? Well, it remains to be seen just how far St. Joe's will go, but Nelson's doing all he can to make sure the Hawks have their highest seed in team history going into March.
Gordon: "He's got to be a go-to guy. He has to be a guy like Emeka who plays great defense, rebounds and does something in every category. If he's a guard, he's got to be a floor leader and gets everyone involved."
While Nelson may not change the game like Okafor in the paint, he does average nearly four steals a game and is the only player in A-10 history to lead the conference in assists two straight seasons ('00-01, '01-02).
Okafor: "It's someone who plays hard every game, and leaves everything on the court."
Nelson's desire to be the best he can be brought him back to Hawk Hill for a senior season after flirting with the NBA draft this spring. Oh, and he's started every game he's played for St. Joe's.
Nelson: "Stats are going to matter, but winning and being a leader is more important. No one is going to pick a player of the year with only two wins."
Uh, did we mention the Hawks are 15-0 and realistically could enter the NCAA Tournament without a loss?
And what about talk of an undefeated season? Nelson's decision to return to college for his senior season is turning out to be one of the best of any player since the early-entry draft rules were put in place. There is no question Nelson's play at the point is the reason the Hawks are undefeated and flirting with a perfect season.
"If he doesn't stay, I don't have too many 12-for-12 games," said West, who was perfect from the field in scoring 33 points in win at Xavier. "He's the player of the year -- without question. If you see him in practice, that's where you'd see that he's not about the hype. He practices hard every day."
How high expectations were going to be on Hawk Hill depended on Nelson's springtime decision to return or not. Once he did, the Hawks knew they could be a NCAA Tournament team. The backcourt of West and Nelson was billed as one of the best in the preseason.
Fifteen games into the season, the duo is the best, hands down.
Nelson is averaging 20.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 4.9 assists a game. West is right behind him at 18.4 ppg and 5.2 rpg. Nelson's had a hand in winning every game, whether he takes a last-second shot, leads the team in scoring or simply sets up West for another big night.
Leadership is the intangible Nelson provides St. Joe's. He's a senior and his maturity shows in the way he leads the Hawks both on and off the court. There is a growing feeling in Philly, not to mention nationally, that Nelson and the Hawks are on the verge of a long-awaited deep NCAA run. Nelson was a freshman when the Hawks lost to Stanford in second round of the 2001 NCAA Tournament. Saint Joseph's lost in overtime last season to Auburn in the first round, and hasn't advanced past the second round since 1997.
There is a similarity at least to last year's Wooden Award winner -- T. J. Ford. While just a sophomore, Ford led Texas to the Final Four for the first time since 1947. The Hawks haven't been to the Final Four since 1961. Nelson certainly is the go-to player needed in March.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves a bit. What St. Joe's and Nelson ultimately do in March won't determine who win the Wooden Award winner. And again, while the nod goes to Nelson at this point, the race is far from over.
So, based on what's happened so far, just who would those in the race pick if they couldn't vote for themselves?
"I like Jameer Nelson," Emmett said. "He made a good decision to come back to school. I've watched him a few times and he's playing solid. He's doing what he does to get his teammates better."
Said Garcia, "Jameer Nelson. He's playing pretty good and he's leading his team in points and steals and they're undefeated right now and playing pretty good."
Fitch, however, would give the nod to Gordon, but that's in part because they're good friends. As for Nelson, "I haven't seen him play, but I do know he dishes out a lot of assists."
The two Huskies split their votes, which is something that could happen with voters come March, preventing either from winning the actual award. Okafor would vote for Gordon and Gordon would tab Okafor.
Again, Okafor is the closest to Nelson at this point, and could make a strong push with his nightly flirtation with triple-doubles. Okafor was four blocks shy against North Carolina, five short against Georgetown, only one away against Oklahoma, and four below a triple-double against Rutgers.
Okafor said Gordon always finds a way to contribute, even when his shot isn't falling. Gordon said Okafor dominates the game like few other players have this season. But Gordon does know all about Nelson, even if he wouldn't get his vote.
"He does a lot for his team and put St. Joe's on the map," Gordon said. "He wasn't always shooting the ball well, but he gets people involved and makes the game easy for his teammates."
Nelson said shooting and leadership were the two aspects of his game that he focused on when he returned to school. Nelson's vote, by the way, would be for West, because he continues to be overlooked and Nelson said he's one of the best at his position.
One thing is for sure, if Nelson winds up with the Wooden Award, he'll be the latest poster boy for staying in school. Shane Battier stuck around Duke as a senior and won a national championship in 2001. Nelson may not cut down the nets in San Antonio, but the five months he will have enjoyed as a senior, will make it harder for a junior or sophomore to squawk about the benefits of staying in school through his senior year.
"This has been great," Nelson said. "We're winning and I'm having a lot of fun."

Jameer Nelson may be the smallest of the player of the year candidates, but he's made the biggest impact so far.

What would a hero be without a mighty steed? How else does a champion ride boldly into the thick of battle? What self-respecting hero walks to the battlefield, instead of riding in style?
You've met the pandaren and learned of their rich and enigmatic history, but the time has come to reveal their mount of choice, the Dragon Turtle.
The pandaren have long sought mounts that embody their values: patience and strength. With a naturally armored hide, and even gait (no matter how heavy the passenger), and the relaxed attitude that welcomes long journeys, the Dragon Turtle is perfect for the pandaren adventurer. Indigenous to mainland Pandaria, these fine steeds are easily outfitted with the essentials: maps, cushions, footstools, and brew-storage. Comfortable and hardy, the dragon turtle's slow, even stride will gently ease passengers into new parts of the world and/or a relaxing nap time.
*Disclaimer: Do not operate while napping. May not actually charge into battle. Maps, cushions, and brew-storage optional.May cause mount envy and wanderlust. For recreational use only. Keep fingers and toes away from mouth. Do not leave in sun. Feed and water regularly. No guarantees real or imagined apply.
They look more like...tortoises?
Strange that the Level 20 mounts are Epic quality, considering all other Level 20 mounts are of Rare quality (not counting the AQ40 bugs).
These look fine.The flying ones should go into their shell and have little jets of flame that shoot out of the leg holes.
Turtles are slow? You have never tangled with a snapping turtle then. Wow those things are scary fast. lolOn another note, I agree with the other folks. Take my bloody money already!. lmao
Is that TWELVE mounts in total from a race? Hey, it doesn't bother me. I just wish my 163 mounts had their own pen to sleep in or something.
Have to admit, the turtles are a pretty nice change of pace.Anywho, there's one thing I would like to say about the number of mounts. If you haven't already, keep in mind that there is only one race this expansion and even though the Worgen and Goblins only have two mounts, the rest of the races had between 6 - 8. So, we have a Horde and Alliance race in one race this expansion, meaning that there should be some extra mounts to make up for the singularity. Besides, how many mounts can you think up for Worgen, besides a giant orange levitating raccoon with laser eyes, SAMs, and cup-holders? Which would explain why the Goblin mounts were so limited, come to think of it...Anyways, point is, it's a Horde and Alliance mount. If they divide them between factions or let the two factions buy all of them, I wouldn't care either way... I just want to ride my awkward turtle onward to victory...P.S. TURTLZ SHULD B ONLY MONTZ 2 CARRY WSG FLAG
Stop complaining guys... it's not normal turtle! IT'S DRAGON TURTLE! IT WILL FLY ASWELL!
LOL"May not actually charge into battle"Does it come with airbags? (ie. pillows for said napping)
Many players were saying this was all a joke, but I'm glad it isn't; they look awesome!
As if I needed any more reasons to make a Panda...
not bad looking better than the worgen mounts.
Hurry! No time to explain, jump on my turtle!
for the pvp mounts they could just do Blue and Red the other usual colours for faction mounts and i think they would look better with 2 heads
I remember WC3 Dragon Turtles, awesome.

I just make myself the 8th just because I like using...bigger teams rather than smaller teams. May sound stupid, but eh. It makes me feel more secure.
Figured. Well, before B/W 1-2 they amount of Pokemon on team vary, but I don't think there's a Gym Leader with 6 Pokemon before a rematch. That's why I left mine off with 5.

Before battle: I see you've follow quite a circuit to get here. Lets test this power of yours. But I warn you, don't expect low resistance from my side.
First poké down: YAAAHOOO!! Full charge, I like it!
Last poké: Well done so far. Lets increase the voltage, shall we?
Defeated: I'm "Franklin" shocked
Medal presentation: I was going for a direct victory, but you were skillful enough to alternate your current. I see a lot of potential in you. Keep shocking the world with your energy, (trainer's name). And take this with you *Hands over the Tesla Medal*

I'm pretty sure Blue did, and maybe Giovanni but thinking about it more I doubt it. I think it used to be more common for the eighth Gym Leader to have 5.
Personally, I'd only have two or three, since I imagine I'd be one of the earlier Gym Leaders (but not the first) and also because there aren't many confirmed Fairy-types yet (and even fewer I'd want to use).

Dark Type Gym
Team: Absol, Bisharp, Sableye, Umbreon.
Before battle: Welcome to my domain! Now to suck on your bloood! Just kidding, I actually have quite a fear of blood. Why do I use dark types? They're practical and willing to do whatever it takes to win. Do you?
First pokemon: First blood, but is that all?
Last pokemon: No holding back, give it everything you have.
Defeated: Practical and pragmatic, you have what it takes to win the Pragmatic Badge.
Post-battle: Many people find Dark moves to be dishonourable and underhanded. You have shown that you will do anything to ensure your pokemon will win. In honour of that, I will give you the Pragmatic Badge. Oh, and here's a move that is a personal favourite *gives TM 12*. Taunt will prevent the opposing pokemon from using any attack that doesn't damage you directly. It's very useful against pokemon that will try and heal themselves. Be careful to not taunt any Pokemon stronger than you.

Giovanni had 5. I believe Blue only had 6 AFTER you beat whatever 2nd gen game you play and battle the Kanto leaders, which he was a part of.
