Rock's Top 7 Bass Playing Lead Vocalists
by Dan Mitchell
posted Nov 9 2010 3:48PM
They play the Bass and sing...it's multi tasking on the bottom end in a rock and roll band and the following are my choices for the 7 best Bass Playin' Lead Vocalizing Rock Dudes;
7-Phil Lynott with Thin Lizzy-*he wore Chuck Taylors too...very cool
6-Greg Lake-Emerson Lake and Palmer
5-Roger Waters-Pink Floyd
4-Geddy Lee-Rush
2-Jack Bruce-Cream
1-Paul McCartney-you know...that Beatle guy
Paul is my number one choice and his place in history as well as his influence on so many others cements him there. I'm always curious to know what you think. Tomorrow on The List-the 7 Essential Albums of the 80's!

Hi Dan, I enjoy your lists every afternoon. But just few comments about this one. When you played the songs representing the Bass playing Lead singer guys, when you played the Floyd and beatle songs, you played songs where Gilmour was singing lead and Lennon was singing lead. I think this might have confused some people. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Woah nelly, how about them aeppls!

Very friendly, welcoming and accommodating, and they went out of their way to help us print some boarding passes. Nice quiet rooms and comfy beds. Absolutely delicious breakfast with a wide choice of hot breakfasts made for you upon request. Really enjoyed our stay (albeit a bit short!). Definitely recommend.

Castle Lodge is a really great place, the staff is friendly and welcoming, the facilities are very clean and give you the feeling that you're at home. The value for money is excellent you get the quality of a hotel, with the coziness of a home for the price of a hostel. Full Irish breakfast was included plus access to cereals, bread, freshly cut apples, yoghurt, milk, orange juice, etc. Overall Castle Lodge is a great choice.

The room was good even though the tv was very small. Great shower, and great breakfast. The other guests were noisy and we could here them talk in the middle of the night. The location was not as indicated on the website, but further away, which was a disappointment.

NORFOLK - Nearly 7,000 Sailors and Marines deployed with the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group (HSTCSG) will return to Norfolk early next week following a seven month deployment.
Carrier Air Wing Three will return this weekend. This includes nearly 100 naval aviators and crew aboard 40 aircraft. They'll be returning to Naval Air Station Oceana and Naval Station Norfolk.
Among those returning are two C-2A Greyhound aircraft from Fleet Logistics Support Squadron Forty, Det. 4. The 'Rawhides' will return Saturday to Naval Station Norfolk Chambers Field.
The 'Seahawks' from Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron 126 will arrive at Chambers Field Sunday with four E-2C Hawkeye aircraft.
The Sailors and Marines have been supporting Operations Enduring Freedom (OEF) and New Dawn (OND) in the 5th Fleet Area of Responsibility (AOR) and conducting maritime security operations in the 6th Fleet AOR.
The Norfolk-based Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) and embarked Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 3, guided-missile cruiser USS Normandy (CG 60) and guided-missile destroyers USS Winston S. Churchill (DDG 81), USS Oscar Austin (DDG 79),and USS Ross (DDG 71) are scheduled to return.
In June 2010, the HSTCSG participated in the 100th Anniversary of French Naval Aviation, which included several interoperability exercises with French aircraft carrier (CVN)Charles de Gaulle (R 91). The event culminated in the first Rafale F3 jet engine swap-out onboard an aircraft carrier, performed in Truman's hangar bay.
During Truman's (CVN 75) deployment to 5th fleet, CVW 3 flew more than 2,900 missions into Afghanistan and Iraq, providing vital close air support to coalition forces on the ground.
While supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, USS Normandy acted as the Regional Air Defense Commander (RADC) in support of OEF. Executing duties as RADC, Normandy was responsible for surveillance of more than 264 million square miles of air space.

Editorial: Barrett Jones represents Memphis like a champion
There was a time, not so many years ago, that when you mentioned University of Alabama football and the Memphis area in the same sentence, you were talking about the Albert Means recruiting scandal.
These days, the local connection to the Crimson Tide is a source of pride and inspiration: former Evangelical Christian School star Barrett Jones, center for the repeat national champions.
Consider noted perfectionist and Alabama coach Nick Saban as among the most impressed. "As fine a human being as I've ever been around," Saban told the media the morning after the title game victory over Notre Dame. "Actually makes you wonder sometimes, even as a coach who's trying to set a good example for the players, should I be more like him?"
Jones completed one of the most storied careers in college football history, winning three national titles in four years and enough individual awards — athletic and academic — to fill some schools' trophy cases. Oh, and he played the national-title game with an injury, for which he was scheduled to have surgery Wednesday. Then it's on to rehabilitation and training for an NFL career.
Athletes can get outsized amounts of attention, just because of their ability to throw a football or catch it, to dunk a basketball or run at a blur's pace. Sometimes they're not so good at that thing called life, but we tend to overlook the flaws because we're such fans.
It's nice when one comes along like Jones, who excels at both — the game, and life.

Haven't been but up until last year it was called Mona Lisa Euro Bistro.

Is there ANY restaurant at all worth going to in Wilmington, DE?
How does it compare to DiMeo's in downtown Wilmington? That's been our go-to for consistent quality pizza for the past few years - we think it's better than Pizzeria Vetri in Philly and have never been much impressed with Elizabeth's (nor much else in Greenville or Centreville - though we've had good luck with Cromwell's Mexican menu, believe it or not).

This is the first I heard that the Fair Hill was sold - no mention at all of it in their emails. Any idea what Phil Pyle and Brian Shaw are up to now?

Considering that the opening date for the planned Concordville Wegman's is still listed on their website as TBD (To Be Determined), it would likely be a ways off.
Nov 15, 2013MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
Very preliminary and unverified but I heard today through some Delaware grocery pros that Wegman's may be bringing a store to the part of the Cavaliers Country Club near Christiana Mall that is being developed.

The Dumpling House was in Wilmington. It was located where Juliana's Kitchen is now.

Is there ANY restaurant at all worth going to in Wilmington, DE?
Curious as to why this thread was resurrected after over a year.
I have to say though that we have found that Delaware Mag's People's Choice or the Snooze-Journal's Reader's Choice designations are the kiss of death. We generally know we're going to be disappointed when we see that designation. (Case in point, the old Pan Tai on Union Street being named Best Thai restaurant by readers for a number of years.)

Fair Hill Inn is a great choice but it may be too far depending on where OP is in NCC. We're in North Wilmington and Fair Hill is a 45 minute drive while Center City Philly is only 30 minutes away.

Domaine Hudson has been sold! (Wilmington DE)
Delaware Online is running mini-reviews by staffers of restaurants participating in Delaware Dines Out this week on Patricia Talorico's Second Helpings blog.
DH got a not-so-glowing review: http://blogs.delawareonline.com/secon...
The News Journal (which is a sponsor of Delaware Dines Out) tends to steer clear of negative remarks in its reviews so this strikes me as fairly harsh by its usual standards.
While restaurant weeks like DDO with their limited menus aren't the best way to get a true taste of a restaurant, the service issues described are disappointing at a place like DH which used to pride itself on the quality of its service and personnel.
Sep 29, 2012MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
Where Can I get Decent Steaks at a Fair Price in the Wilminton DE area?
Even though ShopRite is my default supermarket (partly due to being raised in Northern NJ), I can't recommend them for their steaks. They're not well-marbled and are cut too thin to be cooked properly. I've gotten much better steaks at the Safeway on Foulk Road.
Aug 06, 2012MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
We were at DH for the first time under the new owners for Mother's Day brunch (I believe the old chef had left right before then). The limited menu struck us as unremarkable with a very disappointing selection that seemed out of place for brunch. Even with the place only half-full, service wasn't up to the standard we had come to expect from DH.
However, a couple with two young children were sitting behind us. Being Mother's Day, I didn't think anything of it. But the youngest kept tossing his silverware to the floor and crying intermittently creating a bit of a racket. I know that this can't be helped but the parents didn't think to take their child outside until he calmed down and the wait staff kept picking up the tossed silverware. Finally, the family finished their meal and left but I later saw the father standing in the back of the restaurant near the register by the kitchen. I later learned to my consternation that the couple were the new owners of DH.

Specialty & Gourmet Food Shop Gift Card Suggestions
We're going to a relative's wedding in Los Angeles at the end of next month. We bought cookware off the couple's gift registry but want to add a gift card to an area specialty or gourmet food shop to make it a little more personal. I don't know the couple very well, but as best as we can determine, they like to entertain and cook along a broad spectrum of cuisines. Any and all suggestions on where to get a gift card would be most welcome.

Casual but delicious dinner in Wilmington, DE?
Eclipse wouldn't be a bad choice. It's definitely not white tablecloth and you don't have to have a full-blown dinner there. Last time we were there we had the burger and the pork sandwich. And it's not too far from 95.
Jan 27, 2012MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
Is there ANY restaurant at all worth going to in Wilmington, DE?
I have to agree that La Tolteca is pretty bad even when compared to other less authentic Mexican places in the area.
As for Iron Hill, I think it's more accurate to say that while the food isn't Chow-worthy, the beer is.

Szechuan Restaurant- Wilmington, DE
The authentic menu at Szechuan is in English - no need to ask for a translation. And it's not a separate menu, the authentic items are clearly marked on the first couple of menu pages. Additional items are found on their specials board and there are some off-menu items like soup dumplings (which are regularly found on their DIm Sum menu offered on Saturdays and Sundays).
You can check out their authentic menu at their website: http://www.szechuanwilmington.com/Aut...

Simba Tropical Grill? (Claymont DE)
The latest issue of Spark had a "review" of Simba: http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/2...
It looks interesting and definitely something different - most African cuisine I've had in the past was either West African or Ethiopian/Eritrean. It would be nice if something like this could help break the Tri-State Mall curse.
Oct 17, 2011MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
Based on your recommendation and bona fides (I grew up in Northern NJ), I'll have to give Manhattan Bagel a try. I had figured that since they and Einstein share the same corporate parent that their bagels would be comparable. (And their website claims that have bialys which I'd have to see to believe.)
Oct 04, 2011MrRuffles in Mid-Atlantic
I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions for decent bagels in or near Northern New Castle County. All we have in the Brandywine Hundred is chain (Einstein/Manhattan/Dunkin - which Mrs. Ruffles, a native Delaweenean, enjoys to my horror) and supermarket bagels.There's no bagel shop that I know of. It would be asking too much to expect something approaching a decent NY-style bagel. I just want something that would at least come close to a bagel rather than the soft, puffed-up "savory donuts" I find everywhere.

The Frequency of
Outbursts of the Dwarf Nova U Geminorum
pdf ps
Lewis M. Cook
1730 Helix Court, Concord,
Received 3 December 1987
U Geminorum visual data
from 1855 through 1985 are used to determine variations in the frequency of
outbursts of this dwarf nova. Patterns in the O-C curve of times of outbursts
resemble other types of dwarf novae in that intervals of more or less frequent
outbursts occur for periods of up to ten years. The duration of outbursts is
determined to be bimodal with peaks at 9 and 16 days. Wide outbursts tend to be
more common when the interval between outbursts is longer. Changes in the
published counts of maxima were determined to be necessary to correct
discontinuities in the O-C curve. A new table of outbursts is presented.

What Can Reduce Redness from an Existing Grease Burn to the Face?
Doctor Answers 1
Reducing Facial Scar Redness
One way to reduce skin redness in scars is to perform Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments to the affected area. Consult with a facial cosmetic surgeon to examine the area and recommend the best course of treatment.

Ron Washington Resigns as Texas Rangers Manager
ESPN is reporting that Ron Washington has resigned as manager of the Texas Rangers.
ESPN is reporting that Ron Washington has resigned as manager of the Texas Rangers.
Not a whole lot of action this week at cinemas, with just one new movie coming out and it isn't even getting a full, 3,000-theater release. But it is about Elvis, sort of.
It takes a lot for badminton to get any sort of coverage. File this under "a lot." During a tournament in Vietnam, the roof at the Phan Dinh Phung Sports Centre collapsed.
Most of the big names have "money games" against overmatched opponents this week, but we do have our first Top 10 matchup that could shake up the playoff hunt.
Nothing quite like a brutally graphic piece of physical evidence to drive the point home.
The lesson here, clearly, is don't put stupid stuff on your head in a desperate, misguided attempt to get on television. Your plan just might work.
Our long national nightmare is almost over, and we are down to just a few more days until college football returns on August 28. Here are some of the burning issues we can't wait to see play out in the coming weeks.
No matter what level of sports you're playing, losing is always hard to swallow, but it might be most difficult when you're a kid. That's what makes this postgame speech so amazing.
If Peyton Manning doesn't get into TV after he retires from football, it'll be a huge blow to society as a whole.
It's safe to say that the talent competition at the Miss Texas pageant doesn't involve pitching.
The Victoria Generals were in the League Championship Series, and even though they came up short for the 2nd year in a row, 6 players received the honor of being named to the All-Texas Collegiate League team, the most of any team.
Defending champion Florida State picks up right where it left off last season, atop the college football rankings.

Nursing is slavery Period!!! - page 18

0Jun 25, '12 by pnut8377With your experience you could go into travel nursing, probably would work your butt off there too but at least you get to see and go places that may make up for it. Plus you get to work out your own contract in advance. Also get out of the hospital. Look in doctor offices or become a school nurse. My CNA instructor was a school nurse and loves it!! Being an RN gives you so many options, don't let this bad experience make you throw in the towel!

1Jun 25, '12 by docomoI'm going to make a bold statement that many won't like. You are 100% correct about how bad the conditions are for nurses overall. I'm a new nurse, but I've been in healthcare for more than 20 years and I've seen a lot of what goes on. Things you forgot to mention are the ridiculous physical demands and very high risk to occupational injury and the constant threat of litigation or losing your license. The reason nursing is this way, is because nursing is a predominantly female profession, and women are used to taking a beating and saying thank you sir. Just look at the board of nursing. They are feared and loathed. It's really little more than a revenge tool to ruin peoples careers. People say nurses eat their young. OMG did I ever learn that lesson in nursing school. I was mommied like a 9 year old the whole 3 years and if anyone did the slightest thing wrong the professors would pounce like lions on a gazelle. Anyone who thinks I'm full of bull, I ask you, where is our woman president of the united states? Women have been voting since the 20's and in all that time there hasn't been a single woman worthy of leading this nation? Baloney! Nursing is the way it is because more often then not, women in nursing leadership positions are still taking a beating and saying thank you sir, can I get you anything else with that?
My advice for you is to take advantage of the fact that nurses can work anywhere, and in many types of jobs. Don't stay a single day more if you are sick of where you work. Have the courage to leave and go somewhere else. There are lots of good nursing jobs, but lots of bad ones as well.
0Jun 25, '12 by Susie2310Quote from sarahgolenThank you for expressing your concern and caring for both your patients and their families. I am an RN. My husband has been hospitalized several times with serious medical problems, and we have both greatly appreciated the nurses who managed to take the time to show caring and consideration towards both of us, in addition to providing very good care. You are absolutely right that those thoughtful words and deeds are remembered and appreciated greatly, even years later.As much as bedside nursing sucks at times it seems that someone who would write this has no passion for truly helping people. Yes, families, docs, patients and bosses can all be demanding and downright cruel at times but the reward that you feel when you know you've helped save another's life makes it all worth it. We have to remember that we are with our patients at the worst moments in their lives so if the families and patients are on edge it would be expected. The people that we help will remember us for a lifetime, they will remember that warm tea you brought them after being up all night worried if their husband will survive to see his children again. They will remember your hug or touch when they found out thier cancer has spread. They will remember the extra time you spent making sure their mom was comfortable at her last breath. They remember everything you do for them so if waiting a little longer to eat your lunch or take a bathroom break seems like the end of the world you have your priorites all wrong. People that find only the negative in nursing are not truly nurses and they should find a different career path because I sure as hell would rather have a nurse that puts all my priorities ahead of their own in my time of desperation. That's what a real nurse does and they don't think twice about complaining about it. We dont do this job for recognition or money we do it because it is what we were put on this earth to do.
1Jun 25, '12 by nursejenna1986Completely agree!!! It is a hell profession.Last edit by TheCommuter on Jun 26, '12
3Jul 3, '12 by lilysereneI definitely think you are at the wrong job but that doesn't mean you can't make it in nursing. If you love bedside nursing, then find a job/hospital/unit/clinic/office, etc., that puts an emphasis on and gives you enough time to do bedside nursing. **DO NOT SETTLE FOR THE FIRST JOB YOU CAN GET YOUR HANDS ON**...Save some money, quit your job, take a Much Needed break, and then start interviewing for what you want.
Nurses--along with other high-demand workers--need to realize the importance of being happy on the job, and stop looking at the dollar amount they make. When going on interviews, WE are the ones who should be interviewing the job: what is the character of your manager; what kind of co-workers will you work with; what is the rn to patient ratio; get a job description of the CNAs/unit clerks, along with your job description, etc. Don't wait until after you take the job to find all this out, because then you will be at the mercy of the job, and Yes, you can feel mentally trapped, like a slave. You might feel there is no way out, and if you wanted to leave, you might feel like nobody else will take you. BUT you must remember that you are NOT a physical slave. There are good nursing jobs out there, ones for you. Go find them. Even if you have to relocate.
0Jul 3, '12 by lovedijahI don't know. Every job I've had that I didn't like, I found a way to get out. Even if it meant sacrificing financially. I realize this is a luxury some people don't have, but some people just complain and complain. If I felt like a "slave", I would be looking for either a new job or new career.
0Jul 10, '12 by DaqueengeneQuote from sonia211It is so hard these days to find the balance in Nursing. It is true that times have changed and there are many different responsibilities and pressures to handle. I feel bad for nursing right now but I feel worse for the patients we serve. We are loosing the focus of patient first. I have fallen in the abyss of more computer entry, more responsibilities, and less time for actual patient care at times. I have been burned out and crispy over the years but have always found my way back by concentrating on the care that I can give. If there are questions or things that I need to know I have sought them out through study, research of standards, clinical practice articles, books and professional certification in my specialties. This gives you more credibility and helps develop a stronger sense of professionalism. It also gives you a credible and factual platform from which to affect change in your work place. You are still so new to the profession and are really in the place where it is the hardest. Give yourself some time and focus on the people you are charged to care for. I have been a working RN for 29 years now. There have been many times that I have thought of giving up and walking away from the profession. I have stayed because I know that through my actions I can help someone in there time of need. I can make there stressful and scary time of illness or physical change easier. I have a professional responsibility to be practicing from a place of true knowledge and care. Be the best you can be. We have a grand opportunity now to merge the highly technical side of nursing with the softer and very important side of caring. When we can do that we elevate our profession. Don't give up on yourself. Remember each person you touch you give them a part of yourself but they also give you a part of them selves too. We are so lucky to be able to actually take the hands, the heart and the knowledge we have and use it for healing.I am probably going to offend some of you and I apologize in advance for that.
However I really need a safe place to vent my frustrations about nursing and
this is the place.
A little background:
I have a Bachelors in Business. I worked in that field for just under 8 years. I liked it but it was starting to get boring and I felt I needed a challenge. I got my BSN and started working as a nurse for a big hospital. I didn't expect it to be all roses however I have to say what I have found in this profession has quickly turned me negative. I have been in this profession for over 2 years now and while I know that isn't long I have to be HONEST and say that I don't feel that I can honestly make it in this job.
Here is what I have noticed about the roles a nurse plays:
to administration: cogs (yet they don't want to pay the price required to keep us
so they keep increasing our task list, Responsibilites, documentation requirements,
etc while not increasing our pay)
to Dr: waitress/slave
to families: waitress/slave
Every job I have done went by satisfactory meaning I have never been written up or even had a verbal warning given. In this job people get written up for stupid stuff and no one thinks to give verbal warnings. The amount of demoralization that takes place on new grads is profound and now I understand why the smiles on new grad faces quickly turn sour. Every Dr I have s/w told me the same thing which is "get out of nursing or go higher fast . . . but do not stay in it"
Thus the message is clear that this profession needs a Major rehaul. Policies change on a daily basis (No Joke) and there is no effective means of getting the information across to all employees such that NO ONE has any idea what is the proper way of doing anything anymore. Everyone I've asked has a different idea and the new policy is not always on the intranet. The more nurses I talk to the more I realize they are not leaving this profession only because they do not have another option. The ones that do take it QUICK!
I keep hearing people tell me that nurses make such great money at the bedside but I have to say Nurses earn every single $ they make NO JOKE. We are expected to work tirelessly without taking bathroom breaks, lunches, etc. There is no regard for our healthy while all focus is given to patient safety. Now I know why nurses burn out at the rate that they do.
And after all is said and done the amount of responsibility and liability that a nurse carries is starting to increase. We live in such an age of Entitlement where people want the best care and they do NOT understand the stressors that are forged upon nurses such that if you don't bring them their cup of tea on time they get upset with you. I thought about pursuing my MSN in the clinical arena however after much deliberation I realized despite the fact that my desire to help people is strong I don't want the amount of liability that comes with it. I am working on getting out of it. Although I do feel like a failure because I will always remember that I wasn't able to make it in nursing.
I have spoken to other new grads about this and they feel the same way in fact a lot of them didn't even finish 1 year bedside nursing before they turned around and enrolled themselves in NP programs to get out of this dreary profession.
Please feel free to comment on this post. . .
0Jul 10, '12 by nursedidiHow sad to hear that! I have a Bachelor in Business too and I am going to start the Prerequisites and go for
a BSN. My husband have been warning me how miserable life is for those who choose a nursing career ( his best friend
is a nurse for 30 years on ER and he says she is as bitter as she can be).He tried to make me change my mind several
times but the only thing I can think about is become a nurse and help people. My grandpa and uncle are doctors in Brazil,
maybe that s why I have a 'thing' for the medical field. But honestly, I am so so so disappointed to read this post..
3Jul 10, '12 by Havin' A Party!A lot of what Sonia writes is right on.
Change will only happen when market forces re-align. Right now nurses are stuck... managers don't understand, care or have no power to institute change. Execs are pretty much focused on dollars. And patients and government are accepting of the status quo.
Sorry... sad but true.
0Jan 5 by Nola009I find nursing dreary and demeaning. I have only been a nurse since'13, and I'm lookin to get up and out too!!
0Jan 6 by Tenebrae, BSN, RNI'm doing bedside nursing at the moment. Working in a SNF. I love the work. What I hate is the ongoing chronic short staffing. I worked three weeks ago with a temperature of 38.5 degrees C, simply because I was told there was no one else to take my place. I made a med error and while no negative effect was experienced by the patient, that was good luck more than anything else IMO. And ended up spending almost a week in hospital which management also ******* about because apparently I cant have been that bad. Doctors dont keep people in hospital any longer than they have to these days due to the increased risk of nosocomial infections, and they certainly dont keep someone in for 6 days unless they really have to
I put my foot down two weekends ago when I ended up not having an enrolled nurse on my shift. Just me to do all the nursing care for 40 odd residents including 1 palliative and 1 patient who was admitted to acute care with a UTI. I told them if they couldnt find me an enrolled nurse they would have to give me a registered nurse, because I wasnt prepared to work in such unsafe conditions.
Funnily enough I got the most hard time from the other nurses. Why the hell should a nurse that speaks up against unsafe staffing levels be vilified. The blame should clearly lie with management who never have us adequately staffed.
Like I said, I love the actual work, its all the excess ******** that does my head in. OP can understand where you are coming from
2Jan 6 by subeeQuote from Nola009You may so oppressed and unhappy now that you aren't able to make a more realistic decision. You may not have to give up nursing but just give up this job that makes you so miserable. Or maybe you were miserable before you took this job and you're bring this "drearieness" to work. This forum tends to be skewed because people are more willing to post when they're in a bad position than in a job they enjoy. You don't have to throw your education away to be content.I find nursing dreary and demeaning. I have only been a nurse since'13, and I'm lookin to get up and out too!!

Clinical outcomes of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients with brain metastasis treated with lapatinib and capecitabine: an open-label expanded access study in Korea

BMC Cancer 2012, 12:322 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-12-322Published: 28 July 2012
To evaluate efficacy in patients with brain metastasis (BM) on entry into the lapatinib expanded access program (LEAP).
LEAP is a worldwide, single-arm, open-label study. HER2-positive, locally-advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients with progression after an anthracycline, taxane, and trastuzumab were eligible. Patients received capecitabine 2000 mg/m2 daily in two divided doses, days 1–14, every 21 days and lapatinib 1250 mg once daily.
Among 186 patients enrolled in 6 Korean centers, 58 had BM. Progression-free survival (PFS) was 18.7 weeks in patients with BM and 19.4 weeks without BM (P = 0.88). In patients with BM, brain response was synchronized with systemic responses (P = 0.0001). Overall survival (OS) was 48.9 weeks in patients with BM and 64.6 weeks without BM (P = 0.23). Multivariable analysis found hormone receptor positivity (P = 0.003) and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of combined systemic and brain disease (P < 0.0001) significantly associated with prolonged brain PFS, and CBR of combined systemic and brain disease (P = 0.03) and longer trastuzumab use (P = 0.047) associated with prolonged OS in patients with BM; prior capecitabine did not affect PFS or OS in patients with BM.
Lapatinib plus capecitabine is equally effective in patients with or without BM.

Fall colors are now reaching their peak at Chimney Rock State Park, as seen here on Chimney Rock Mountain in Rutherford County. The state park offers miles of hiking trails, special programs, rock climbing and live music on the weekends.
- Filed Under
The great thing about a trip to Chimney Rock State Park, less than an hour's drive southeast of Asheville, is that you can be as bold or as boring as you want to be - and still be blown away by the fall colors.
This weekend should bring peak color to the state park in Rutherford County, said Matt Popowski, public relations and events manager at the Chimney Rock attraction section of the park.
"It's getting to the exciting time of year when the colors are really starting to pop and you can watch them creep down the mountainsides," Popowski said. ...

This was our first trip to PR and having found such a comfy and quiet place to stay was great! From the start Max and Maritza were so helpful to answer any questions we had about the area, also they gave good suggestions of restaurants, nearby towns, things to do and see. Each day we walked to and from the beach, which we found to be easier than trying to find a parking spot at the beach. And by this walking, we justified the sweets we found at Espana (terrific local bakery). The neighborhood was friendly and safe, we would have missed out on so many great local people had we stayed at a resort. Thank you Maritza and Max!
The condo was perfect and had everything we needed. The owner Max is the sweetest man, he met us at the condo and even drove us to get groceries! The area is safe and secure and just a short distance to walk to the grocery store, beach and restaurants. We'd definitely stay here again. Thanks for everything :)
We recently stayed here for our spring break vacation. The place is absolutely perfect and comfortable . The landlord Max was there to open the door when we arrived. We had a delay he was kind enough to wait up for us .The place was clean and the beds were comfortable . We were there with our 3 yr old son and it was just perfect. I like that he had brochures with thing to see and do while visiting the Island. There is so much to do . I really recommend to rent a car to get to some places can be a little to far. There is a car port so your car is safe . Things You must visit, the Espanola Bakery ,around the corner it is delicious. Im looking forward to returning next yr again .
Thank YOU Maritza and Max .!
Loved staying at this place! It was within walking distance of the beach, so it was perfect to just get away! It was clean and organized with everything I needed for my vacation. It's a quiet neighborhood and easy access to shopping.
I would definitely come back!
Great place to stay, everything new, clean, modern with all the amenities you need to feel comfortable.
All places walking distance, beautiful Beach, restaurants, casinos, 20 minutes from Viejo San Juan. I would highly recommend, we received good customer service from owners very friendly .

Congressman Chaka Fattah (D-PA) issues the fourth in a series of statements discussing "the public option" throughout American life and why it must be part of health care reform:
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following statement was released today by Congressman Chaka Fattah:
"The notion that the federal government should not be involved in providing healthcare insurance for individuals is on its face ridiculous given the numerous insurances the government is already providing.
"The government provides coverage for a wide range of possible concerns, including crop damage, flood damage, Social Security Disability Insurance, terrorism attacks, mortgage insurance and federal deposit insurance. If critics of the public option refuse to recognize the benefit that it provides to the general public, then those same critics should also demand an end to other vitally important public plans like federal deposit insurance and flood insurance.
"Across the nation, millions of Americans are dependent on the federal government to provide assurances that their needs will be covered in case of emergency or disaster. When adversity strikes, people rely on government insurance programs to sustain them. Successful government-run insurance programs such as Medicare and Social Security are an integral part of the daily lives of millions of Americans, and we are fortunate to have them.
"A government-run public option provides Americans the opportunity to purchase healthcare plans at affordable rates. Those without coverage or without enough coverage should be assured that they will be covered if they are beset by illness.
"The need to reform America's healthcare system is undeniable. A public option is critical to guaranteeing that every citizen has quality, affordable healthcare. Medicare is a publi

Fitness trackers: Help or hype?
Besides tracking movements, this wearable device can also monitor sleep and your heart rate. DL takes a closer look at eight of these multi-feature gadgets which are fast becoming a fitness buff's must-have accessory
Published on Aug 1, 2014 6:00 AM
Fitness trackers have been touted as the next big thing after smartphones.
Unlike smartphone apps that use GPS to track movement, fitness trackers use an accelerometer to measure motion, compute calories burned and monitor sleep patterns.
Often in the form of wristbands, the latest models even have heart-rate sensors and altimeters.
Such gadgets use Bluetooth or wired options to sync with users' smartphones or computers, to upload and display data with apps on smartphones or on websites. This lets even the most obsessive users track their daily fitness goals.
Sales of sports, fitness and activity monitors are set to hit US$2.8 billion (S$3.5 billion) in 2019, up from US$1.9 billion last year, according to IHS, a US-based market intelligence firm. It sees revenues from these devices rising 22 per cent to US$2.2 billion this year.
Sony, Samsung and LG are among the electronics giants that have leapt onto the bandwagon. Razer, better known for its gaming peripherals, will soon be launching Nabu, which can display notifications as well. And last week, Xiaomi announced its own fitness tracker, Mi Band, that costs a mere 79RMB (S$16).
Despite encouraging signs, things are not all rosy for the business. Nike is said to have laid off most of its FuelBand staff. Gadget company Fitbit has had to recall its latest Force fitness tracker after some users developed a rash from wearing it.
There have even been reports of some users gaining weight after using fitness trackers.
Said Mr Jonathan Collins, principal analyst of market research firm ABI Research: "While there is a danger that such adverse publicity could have an impact, these devices are providing guidelines and feedback about levels of activity that have previously not been available to consumers."
Exercise physiologist Ray Loh from Tan Tock Seng Hospital's sports medicine and surgery clinic said fitness trackers should be used for tracking physical activities and to act as an encouragement to users to reach the targeted amount of physical activities.
And it is personal interest in fitness, not advertising promises, that has driven people to buy these trendy wearable devices.
Race driver and fitness celebrity Claire Jedrek, 31, said she bought her Jawbone Up24 to see what all the fuss was about. What blew her away, she said, was the sleep tracker rather than the step counter.
"I honestly feel the fitness tracker is way more useful in monitoring my sleep patterns. It wakes me up without disturbing my partner and always manages to get me up no matter how tired I am," she said.
To entice users to stay within their ecosystems, makers of fitness trackers use proprietary scoring systems, such as NikeFuel points and Fitbit Active Score. Some users go all out to make sure they reach their targets, in order to rack up these points.
Mr Ngoh Seh Suan, 34, an insurance agent who uses a Fitbit Flex fitness tracker, said he walks the 4km to his own home after sending his girlfriend home.
He said he was keen on accuracy when he started using a fitness tracker, but has since lowered his expectations after realising that he can score just by "using a handheld fan to fan myself".
Now, he uses his tracker as a general reference to monitor his physical activities because he feels that it is better than no reference at all.
"It's going to get tougher at a later age. Without any monitoring, I am far more likely to forget about this long-term priority of maintaining a healthy activity level," he said.
It is this sort of thinking that encourages local retailers to be bullish about the marketing future of fitness trackers.
Electronics retailer Courts launched World of Wellness, as a one-stop destination for health and fitness products that include fitness trackers, to cater to the growing trend of more health-conscious customers. Demand for the gadgets has risen nearly fourfold over the same period last year, said Mr Tim Nolan, Courts Singapore's commercial director.
He said: "With the rising wave of tech-savvy and connected consumers who are increasingly health conscious, fitness trackers are becoming mainstream accessories that are changing the way we exercise, communicate and share information."
Mr Jeremy Low, business development manager of local sports equipment store, Axtro Sports, agreed. "Fitness trackers will continue to sell well as more people get health conscious and strive to get fitter," he said.
Digital Life reviews eight of the latest fitness trackers in the market.

- As you open the Bösendorfer-castle's door, you can smell the aroma of coffee wafting through the air along with the piano. Then there is a dazzling movement that flows through the whole body.You find that the most beautiful thing in life is not an article, but a profound experience that is able to touch the spirit. Bösendorfer, the embodiment of the traditional Viennese music, is the lifelong dream of a pianist.

Yet outside the doors of the National Concert Hall, Bösendorfer / Artist Series – Klimt Model is in the castle that the dream has become accessible.And what is a guest house? Is it simply a service of providing a bed and breakfast? Or serving guests as a way to making a living? I have another view on managing a guest house. For me, it is simply a place in which people can exchange dreams. I share my travel experiences with the guests. Experiences that the guests could have hardly had. I'm also so thankful that I have been able to achieve my ideal lifestyle due to the guest's encouragement. It is a lifestyle that allows me to recede from society and enjoy my piano, reading, thinking, and meditation. Since establishing this guest house, I have been able to get rid of the misery of my life as a teacher, and seek complete rest in the spiritual space close to my soul.So, welcome to the world of Bösendorfer.

Markets, Oxford
5 Reviews
5 Reviews
The Market in Oxford dates back to approximately the late ninth Century, spreading out from Carfax corner at the City Centre
Guildsmen & traders were to be found in the middle Ages on the site, together with Student Hostels & many Butchers' shops. In fact, Queen Street was once known as Butcher's Row. The Mileways Act of 1771 put an end to the outdoor trading however.
The Covered Market became the solution however, in order to clean the main streets of the mess that accumulated. In the late Eighteenth Century John Gwynn, who designed Magdalen Bridge designed the distinctive entrances, the Market Committee commissioned the building of twenty Butchers shops, and in 1773 meat could only be sold within the market. Todays market grew from out of this.
What to buy: there are today many less Butchers giving a range of organic meats as well as rarities of excellent quality. Venison, Quails eggs & other less usual commodities can be found here for more exotic recipes. There is one fish shop, though an excellent one, as a wide variety of fish, foreign & domestic are readily available. Mussels, Crab, Cod Roe, whitebait - all are available in season & staff are so very friendly.
There are a great variety of other shops also, an engravers, the Oxford Cobbler, an Andean gift centre (though why I couldn't imagine) bakeries & juice bars, knitwear & sandwich shops are all in evidence.
Gloucester Green is a Square and a market place. It is ringed by shops & Restaurants, also by the Old Fire Station (a real fire station converted into a theatre & restaurant), the Odeon Cinema & the Bus station.
Every Wednesday Gloucester Green is the site of our general market, on other days it becomes a second hand & antique market or a Farmer's Market.
It is a new square with modern brickwork that attracts a great deal of interest from students & locals alike - and who knows, perhaps the tourists have discovered it too.
What to buy: Anything & everything, plus coffee, baguettes, kebabs, spaghetti or crepes! There is also an arcade of slot machines & a taxi rank
What to pay: Good prices here!
The Market is open every Wednesday (and possibly Thursday too - I'm not sure). there are various stalls selling antiques, old coins, cds, old records, second-hand books, and so on.
What to pay: You might find the odd bargain here though, in general, prices are not too much cheaper than in the shops.
Although I may have many pictures of the covered market, it doesn't do justice to this beautiful market and it's numerous types of shops at all. This is a great place to get anything that you would like to eat, from fish to bio meats, fruits and veggies, to many diffenrent types of restaurants or eating counters, to lovelly gift shops, jewellers and clothes boutiques as well as furniture. I have seen some beautiful and trendy china here. But the best is the atmosphere, since everyone comes to this place! It is an old covered market from the late 18th century, in which they closed up streets so that the clutter of merchants in the High street could stop, as it was growing with its increased popularity. Nowdays, many regular Oxfordians come here to do some great shopping.
Opening Hours 8.30am - 5.30pm Monday to Saturday
Sunday Opening Hours 10.00am - 4.00pm
If you want to know more about the history of this covered market, go to this website.
What to buy: Here is a virtual tour of the Covered Market.
What to pay: Prices are not more nor less expensive then elsewhere. And as lunch goes I would say less for better quality.
This is a delightful place to shop with lots of unusual unique shops especially useful if its raining. There is a butchers, deli store, fishmongers & a bakery.

text: The New York Giants wiki last edited by ThePickle on 09/09/13 10:37AM View full history The New York Giants were founded in 1925. Of the five teams that entered the league that year, they are the only one still around. They derived their name from the baseball team of the same name, which has since moved from New York to San Francisco. They represent the New York metropolitan area, which includes parts of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Their home stadium, MetLife Stadium, is located in East Rutherford, NJ. They share this stadium with the New York Jets. The Giants and the Jets are the two teams in the NFL to share a stadium and hometown.Lawrence Taylor is arguably the greatest player to ever wear a Giants uniform, having played his whole career with NY from 1981 to 1993.The Giants have won 8 league championships, the third of all time for NFL franchises. Of them are 4 pre-Super Bowl championships in 1927, 1934, 1938, and 1956, and 4 Super Bowls in 1986, 1990, 2007, and 2011. They have made 19 championship appearances, the most of all NFL franchise. They are the only team to have won a Super Bowl in four consecutive decades. The Giants have also won 16 division titles (8 in the NFL East, 8 in the NFC East).The Giants' biggest rivalry is the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles and the Giants have been rivals since the Eagles' founding in 1933, almost 40 years before the New York Giants joined the Eagles' division in the NFC East. Fueled by proximity (Philadelphia is located 97 miles from New York), passionate fanbases, and similar rivalries in other sports (Mets-Phillies in the MLB and Rangers-Flyers in the NHL), the rivalry is one of the most intense in the entire league. NFL Network ranked it the #1 NFL rivalry of all time.The Giants also have a heated relationship with the Dallas Cowboys. It is the only Texas-New York rivalry in American sports. After a dominant period for the Cowboys in the 1970's, the rivalry has been very competitive with neither team taking a significant win streak.The Giants have 29 former players in the Hall of Fame, the second most for any NFL franchise. Five Giants have won the NFL MVP award while playing for the team, the most recent being linebacker Lawrence Taylor in 1986. LT is also the most recent defensive player to win the NFL MVP.

Oh what a difference a few days can make. After being beaten 71-43 in a regular season game the previous Friday, Dec. 17, to district foe Gallatin County (4-3), the Carroll County Panthers (3-4) were competitive through most of the game and were improved many times over. The two teams battled in the second round of the North American Stainless and Carrollton/Carroll County Tourism Basketball Classic Tuesday with the Panthers falling short, 52-42.

The Carroll County Panthers fell 53-36 to the LaRue County Hawks, finishing in fourth place in the North American Stainless and Carrollton/Carroll County Tourism Basketball Classic Wednesday night. Senior Tyler Grant and sophomore Dallas Gibson were named to the all-tournament team.
Every winter we look forward to the pleasures of warming our hands and feet by a blazing fire, mesmerized by the dancing flames.
When buying firewood two factors will determine just how hot your fire is—seasoning and the kind of wood.
Wood is made up of air and cellulose (wood fiber). The more air space that wood has, the less there is to burn. Buying wood with the heaviest/densest per unit volume will keep you toasty.
Osage orange, hickory, black locust, all of the oaks, sugar maple and ash produce hot fires; plus they are easy to split.
Happy New Year!
I hope that you have had a happy and prosperous 2010 and here's to a very Happy New Year 2011!
The Carroll County Extension Service will be offering many special programs and activities this coming year. Make it a habit to read my column here in The News-Democrat weekly to keep abreast of these programs and other activities. Also check out the News-Democrat for information from me or Tim Hendrick, our Ag Agent about activities at the Extension office. I hope you are having a blessed and enjoyable holiday with your loved ones and friends.

The Carroll County Lady Panthers tasted revenge in the second round of the North American Stainless/Carroll County Tourism Basketball Classic by defeating Gallatin County 46-36 on Tuesday, Dec. 21. The win avenged a 56-51 overtime loss to the Lady Wildcats only three nights before and boosted Carroll County into the championship round of the tournament.
Well, we got through Christmas and now we're headed to a completely new year. I predict that only good things are ahead of us. This is a community of really good people and we are here to help each other through good and bad times. You all are so amazing, so don't worry about making resolutions just keep doing the wonderful things you are already doing.

The mascot moniker is a misnomer. While Ashland Blazer's boys' basketball team is known as the Tomcats, their coed equivalents are known on the basketball court as the Kittens. But in Wednesday's title matchup of the North American Stainless/Carroll County Tourism Basketball Classic, these Kittens fought like alley cats in what local fans hoped would be a real cat fight with the Carroll County Lady Panthers.

From the moment Carrollton Mayor Dwight Louden stepped into office in January 2006, part of his focus was on developing the riverfront along the Ohio and Kentucky rivers.
For years, many have said they wanted a river walk, but little to no action had been made. Louden was one of those who recognized the opportunity and seized it.

Villagers claim deaths, complicating Afghan push
Airstrikes were the single largest cause of civilian deaths by foreign and Afghan government forces during the first half of 2010, accounting for 31 percent, said the U.N.
The Marines in Sangin have tried to counter civilian casualty allegations by broadcasting over local radio details of who they and the Taliban have killed or wounded, said Morris. But the Marines ability to influence public opinion pales in comparison to the Taliban.
"They will send people down to the bazaar to say, 'Have you heard what's going on in X,Y,Z places? It's terrible,'" said Phil Weatherill, a British government adviser who has worked in Sangin since 2009. "It just needs one flicker and it will spread like wildfire."
Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar has also urged his fighters to try to avoid killing innocent civilians. Many of the crude roadside bombs the insurgents rely on to target NATO or Afghan forces kill ordinary citizens instead.
"Pay attention to the life and property of civilians so that ... your jihad activities will not become a cause for destruction of property and loss of life of people," Omar said in a message e-mailed to the media last week.
The Marines have tried to sway public opinion by increasing the number of development projects in Sangin. But they have discovered that better roads and new flood walls may do little good if locals believe the Marines are killing civilians.
"The people say we don't need any help, just stop injuring and killing our civilians," Mira Jan Aka, a village elder from central Sangin, said during a recent meeting with the Marines.
Aka was one of several elders who spent most of the weekly session complaining about Marines killing civilians.
"It's clear the Marines can kill Taliban, so why are they making mistakes and killing civilians by dropping bombs on their compounds?" said Haji Gul Mohammad, an elder from northern Sangin.
The Marines dismissed the cries of the elders, many of whom they believe are sent by the Taliban to deliver a message the insurgents hope will hinder military operations. As proof, they point out that none of the elders have been targeted by the Taliban for meeting with the Marines even though the insurgents threaten locals with death if they go near the base.
But locals who don't show up at the base have also complained about Marines killing civilians.
Tuma Khan, a landowner from central Sangin, complained to Marines during a recent patrol that they shot and killed one of his farmers who was working in the field. The Marines said the man was planting a homemade bomb in the ground.
Mullah Abdul Wali, another landowner from Sangin who recently fled with his family to Helmand's provincial capital of Lashkar Gah, complained that aggressive attacks by the Marines have killed dozens of civilians.
"The foreign troops should leave Sangin," said Wali. "They are bringing disaster to the area."
Around 40 people burned tires in Sangin's main bazaar to protest civilian casualties several weeks ago, but the Marines and the district governor, Mohammad Sharif, said they suspect the Taliban had engineered the demonstration.

Overall great camelbak that has many compartments to put anything you need for a hiking trip or what ever your use may be. The amount of water it holds is a plus too. The straps are also very comfortable. I would recommend this item to anyone that does a lot of outdoor activities.

We Heart Men in Tights
The pointy shoes, the green tights, and those rosy cheeks. Who doesnt love a little elfin magic? For ladies who prefer a man of diminutive stature, this is your day to find your very own Seth Green at the Tropical Fairy Festival. With wands and dust aflutter, you can gleefully skip from booth to booth while shopping for holistic and spiritual products, whimsical crafts, and unique clothing. Rest your tiny feet with a relaxing Reiki or massage session, and then attend an enlightening lecture about the healing power of crystals. Still looking for your little man? Have your cards read to see if hes waiting for you behind that kapok tree. There will also be plenty of food, games, and entertainment for the family, and dont forget to dress up for the costume contest. Spread your fairy wings today and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Coral Castle, 28655 S. Dixie Hwy., Homestead. The festival is free with Coral Castle admission ($9.75, $6.50 for seniors, $5 for children ages seven to twelve). If you arrive in costume -- pixie, fairy, elf, or any mystical creature -- youll save a buck. Call 305-297-5516, or visit www.tropicalfairy.com.
