The cottages have been converted from a group of eighteenth-century farm buildings and are situated around a paved courtyard in open countryside. Lark Cottage was a cow shed used for housing the dairy herd, built of brick with a pantile roof. Providing water for the cows the farm well was situated in the courtyard and is now marked with a plaque.
The cottages have been sympathetically restored using traditional materials whilst incorporating modern green technology such as the use of Ground Source Heat Pump in the heating system. It has lots of character with exposed stone walls, beams and a wood-burning stove. They are ideal if several families are looking to holiday together while still enjoying their own space and facilities.

In England's spectacular North East, Yorkshire and Northumberland are both counties that offer something for everyone. Yorkshire is world renowned for the beauty of its countryside and its scenery, reaching from the Dales in the west to the Moors in the east. There are also historic towns and cities, a spectacular coastline, much of which is in the care of the Trust, and some of the most magnificent historic houses in the country. The cathedral city of York, where the Trust has two holiday apartments, has a huge variety on offer to visitors - from magnificent York Minster to the medieval Shambles, an area steeped in history and now rich in gift and antique shops alongside fashionable boutiques. Northumberland too abounds in magnificent scenery with wide open stretches of moorland and a long and dramatic coastline. Steeped in history, protecting the border with Scotland since the days when Hadrian's army built the famous Wall, the county also has a wonderful collection of historic houses and castles including Cragside, Wallington and Lindisfarne, all of which are in the care of the Trust. The Trust now has cottages close to Hadrian's Wall itself and in many other spectacular locations including Alnwick and Fountains Abbey, a World Heritage Site.
Yorkshire is, not surprisingly, England's most popular holiday destination, as this vast county offers something for everyone. The beautiful countryside of the Dales and Moors, a dramatic and unspoilt coastline, a wealth of historic towns and cities, spectacular ancient ruins, and some of the most magnificent houses in the country. The National Trust owns over 24,000 acres of coast and countryside across the county as well as some splendid historic properties. These include Beningbrough Hall, East Riddlesden Hall, Nunnington Hall and the spectacular Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal.

I'd like to know the status of my order, which I placed before the "Get it by Christmas" deadline according to the advertisement on the website. Obviously I won't get it in time for the holiday (sad! but these things happen) but I've never ordered anything from Shapeways before and I must say it makes me nervous I haven't gotten a response. I'm hoping its because of the holidays.... If someone could let me know the order will come eventually I'd really appreciate it! I'm pretty excited about what I ordered so I'd like to know that I'm not looking forward to something that I won't get. Thanks very much!

So I'll try to ease your worries I'm pretty sure you can count on your order arriving, one way or the other. If something goes wrong, Shapeways usually spare no expense to make things right. In my experience, delivery is usually on working day 9 or 10 after ordering. Did you get an order/payment confirmation ? Did you get an email : your order is now in production ? If so, chances are, it might still arrive in time.

Maybe you guys should make lower quality products so less people want them and I can get my order really fast! Just kidding! I assumed you guys must be busy, sorry if I added to your stress. The holidays are probably jammed for you since you offer so many great gift options. I wasn't sure my email got through since I figured I'd get one of those "Thanks for emailing, someone will get back to you" automatic replies and didn't.

(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- Attendees at the upcoming Eurowebtainment conference will learn more about the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) and its work on behalf of the online adult entertainment industry, thanks to the events sponsors.
According to its promoters, Eurowebtainment is Europes leading business-to-business trade event for interactive entertainment companies operating in the Internet, telecommunications and Sat/Web-TV markets. Eurowebtainment features seminars, speeches and presentations, along with networking opportunities and special events. The 19th Eurowebtainment takes place from May 18 21 in the hotel Melia de Mar in Majorca, Spain.
"Eurowebtainment is known as the most important business event of its kind in Europe and we are pleased to help represent ASACP at this event," stated a Eurowebtainment rep. "Key players meet in a professional environment to exchange business ideas, while networking takes place in a relaxing atmosphere, with interesting presentations and parties enhancing this popular event."
Included in its support, Eurowebtainment will promote ASACP on its website, in its show guide, and via flyers in the shows attendee gift bags.
"Eurowebtainment has a long tradition of supporting ASACP, for which we are grateful," stated ASACP Interim Director Tim Henning. "Understanding that ASACP is a nonprofit organization with a limited budget which prevents it from attending every conference, Eurowebtainment and its backers have consistently volunteered to represent ASACP at these important events."
"For ASACP, Eurowebtainment is a vital component of our international outreach initiative, as its audience is composed of the industry leaders and decision makers that can benefit most from the associations services," Henning added. "Creating awareness of ASACP and its mission in European markets is key to our efforts, as is spreading the adoption of the Restricted to Adults (RTA) meta label, as the need for online child-protection heeds no borders."
In addition to its English-language offerings, the ASACP website, www.ASACP.org, is available in French, German and Spanish versions, in order to reach the broadest possible audience.
Companies interested in learning about the many ways in which they can support ASACP in its mission to keep children out of and away from adult entertainment, should contact Henning at email@example.com.

Spectra Precision introduced today the new ProMark 700 GNSS receiver to meet the evolving needs of the land survey market. The new ProMark 700 is an ideal RTK rover specifically designed for network RTK applications. Weighing only 650 grams (1.4 pounds), the ProMark 700 is the lightest GNSS RTK smart antenna available on the market today. Its light weight, together with a very compact and slim design, makes the receiver portable and comfortable for field use. It features a long battery life (typically over 10 hours) for all-day operation without the need for battery recharging or replacement. With its rugged, waterproof design and a wide operating temperature range, the ProMark 700 can be used in harsh outdoor environments.
The new receiver is equipped with 220 dual-frequency and dual-constellation GNSS channels that allow tracking of all available L1/L2 GPS/GLONASS satellite signals. It provides all the necessary features for effective network RTK operations, without the unnecessary complexity of rarely-used modules or options.
In addition, the ProMark 700 has been designed as an intuitive, simple and easy-to-use receiver, where all operations are performed from the data collector. Due to their size and light weight, the perfect companions to ProMark 700 are the low-cost MM10 data collector or the new T41™ data collector with a smart phone design.
The ProMark 700 receiver can be used with Spectra Precision field software: either Survey Pro™ v5.2.1 or FAST Survey™ v3.1. Both field software applications provide a complete set of features that meet the demanding expectations of professional surveyors and are optimized for RTK network surveys.
"Surveying is hard, physical work, but the new ProMark 700 lightens the load through its unique ergonomics and rugged design. And with its powerful RTK capabilities, the ProMark 700 offers surveyors an ideal network RTK rover solution," said François Erceau, general manager of Trimble's Spectra Precision Surveying Business.

Gear Review
Camera might not work inside bag
So..sounds great. Can put your camera in and take photos under water, right? I understand you can't use your zoom. I put my camera in and just turned it on. My camera automatically pokes the lens out just a bit- it hit the other side of the bag. The camera totally freaked out- sending the zoom in and out. Then the screen went blank. I bought this because of the idea you could take pictures through the bag. So, there is no way that I could use this underwater or even just in the bag. If the Aquapac is just to store the camera, I can find a cheaper product. Had to return it. Hope it works for you though.
To me, it just sounds like this bag is too small for your camera. Measure your camera when on (my ultra small digital camera basically doubles in diameter when on vs when off) to make sure it will work.

09.06.07 - By Nick Mathur: Last month, Edison Miranda was thoroughly beaten up by Kelly Pavlik and ultimately knocked out in the seventh round after being on the canvas twice in the preceding round. The two engaged in a competitive, crowd pleasing battle and exchanged numerous shots that probably would have been enough to wreck almost any other middleweight in the world.
Pavlik, universally regarded as one of boxings brightest prospects after such a fantastic showing, fought with a style that was the polar opposite of what his moniker, "The Ghost," would suggest. He did not attempt to be an elusive target for Miranda, and showed no apparent fear of Pantera's vaunted punching power as he willingly absorbed hard punches in order to land his own.
One can obviously make a case for why Miranda may never be a serious threat to the middleweight crown after being defeated in such a manner. Some may suggest that he is only capable of being effective when he is the aggressor, the "bully," and that he will always have problems when someone is able to withstand his best punches and forces him to fight going backwards. Others may speculate that he may never be the same after participating in such a brutal war of attrition that had to have taken a substantial toll on him physically. One that may have damaged his confidence as well.
I believe the opposite, that Edison Miranda demonstrated that he has all of the necessary attributes that it takes in order to be a great fighter. Even though his effort against Pavlik ultimately resulted in a knockout loss.
Miranda possesses a kind of raw punching power that very few fighters in his division are capable of handling. I also believe that he has a good chin, proven by the fact that he was able to stand up to Pavlik's constant assault for as long as he did. However, what impressed me about that fight is that he never thought of giving up, even after being battered during the sixth round and having virtually no chance to get back into the fight. He never quit.
While the lack of craft in his fight game is clearly evident, it is something that can be improved upon greatly if he were coached by one of the best trainers. He can be molded into a more polished boxer, but would still possess the will and physical traits that have allowed him to fight competitively with some of the best middleweights in the world.
It took an amazing, almost superhuman effort by both Arthur Abraham and Pavlik in order to beat Edison. Abraham had to finish the last seven rounds of their fight while dealing with the excruciating pain of a broken jaw. And although Kelly Pavliks head is somewhat stationary when he fights, he did not even wince when he was caught by some of Miranda's heaviest punches. He just took them, and fired back after being hit instead of retreating. I am usually good at judging a fighter's durability, and believe after watching that fight that Pavlik has a granite chin.
It may surprise some to know that I was rooting for Kelly Pavlik to win, and was not a fan of Mirandas until afterwards. I watched the fight with my father and chastised him for saying that he was cheering for Edison. I tried to lecture him regarding all of the disrespectful things that Miranda has said about other fighters, and how he provoked Jermain Taylor at the press conference before the fight. My father simply smiled and said, But look at all of the things he has had to overcome.
I would suggest that boxing fans should not be too hard on Edison Miranda for any of his trash talk or brash behavior. He has clearly shown that he can back it up in the ring, win or lose, and that he has as much heart as anyone in the game today. The truth is that I dont know whether or not he will eventually become a champion or even a world titlist. But I have no doubt that the product of such rough circumstances has the resolve to keep fighting even after incurring a setback like this one.
All fighters lose. Sometimes they get knocked out. It happens. Edison Miranda is an exciting fighter who is certainly willing to take on top challenges, in an era where most of the athletes in this sport are extremely protected. Regardless of what he is able to accomplish from this point on, that is what makes him a special fighter.

The Libya Blame Game
Losing sight of what's useful
With weeks to go before the election, seemingly every aspect of last month's attack on the U.S. mission in Libya has become a cudgel for Americans–politicians and pundits alike–to beat each other senseless with.
One example of countless many was a post last week (or perhaps all posts last week) from Washington Post blogger Jennifer Rubin. Here's a bit of what she had to say.
The Obama administration had touted Libya as a great success, a model of nation-building. But, in fact, like the accusation it hurled at the Bush administration for its handling of the Iraq war, the Obama team had sublimated reality to ideology. They were grand liberators! They like us! So, therefore, there could be no danger to Americans in Benghazi or elsewhere.
But the facts that the Obama team had access to back in August told a different story: "Al-Qaeda appears to constitute a significant threat to the state-building process in Libya. The current Libyan leadership seems unable to deliver on the promise of security or to carry out meaningful reforms in order to build strong popular support for state institutions, destroyed by the former regime."
Four Americans paid the price for the Obama administration's refusal to pay attention to inconvenient facts.
Earlier this week, in an editorial titled "Republicans Have No Shame," the Times fired in a different direction:
At a hearing of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform last Wednesday, Representative Darrell Issa, Republican of California and the committee's chairman, talked of "examining security failures that led to the Benghazi tragedy." He said lawmakers had an obligation to protect federal workers overseas. On Sunday, he said more should be spent on diplomatic security.
But as part of the Republican majority that has controlled the House the last two years, Mr. Issa joined in cutting nearly a half-billion dollars from the State Department's two main security accounts. One covers things like security staffing, including local guards, armored vehicles and security technology; the other, embassy construction and upgrades. In 2011 and 2012, President Obama sought a total of $5 billion, and the House approved $4.5 billion. In 2009, Mr. Issa voted for an amendment that would have cut nearly 300 diplomatic security positions. And the draconian budgets proposed by Mitt Romney's running mate, Representative Paul Ryan, would cut foreign affairs spending by 10 percent in 2013 and even more in 2016.
The hits keep on coming. Benghazi entered the discourse of last week's vice-presidential debates and we'll no doubt see it again tonight in the second presidential debate.
Last night, in the moments following Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's interview on CNN, in which she accepted responsibility for the loss of American life in Libya, her words immediately took on a new life of their own. Suddenly, she had spoken only to protect the President or, more conspiratorially, she was finally, at long last, exacting revenge on President Obama for 2012.
That Clinton asked, in the wake of the deaths of four of her colleagues, to keep the issue from being "a kind of political gotcha" fell on deaf ears. That's to be expected. But also making a similar plea: Jan Stevens, the father of Ambassador Chris Stevens:
The security matters are being adequately investigated. We don't pretend to be experts in security. It has to be objectively examined. That's where it belongs. It does not belong in the campaign arena.
Perhaps we should listen.

McCALL, Idaho -- It looks like winter has finally arrived in parts of Idaho.
Brundage Mountain officials report they have received 10 inches of fresh powder since Monday morning at the resort near McCall, and more snow is on the way.
Two inches of snow fell at the 5,800 foot level Monday morning, and by 2 p.m. Tuesday an additional eight inches fell at that level. More than a foot of snow is reported at Brundage Mountain's 7,640 foot summit.
The slopes have been transformed into a powder paradise, with soft, fluffy conditions from top to bottom, said resort spokesperson April Russell.
Forecasters are calling for an additional 1-2 feet at the base of the mountain, with 3 more feet possible on the upper south and west-facing slopes over the next few days.

Thanks for the Tip! The only camera I really have issues with is the GoPro angle we use for our podcast. We use 4 soft boxes to try and boost up the light, but I also think it has a lot to do with all of the natural light coming in the salon as well. Thanks for the add!

The oil has been tested and is found to be edible: officials
'Tobacco plants can be used for extracting edible oil, production of vaccines and pharmaceuticals'
'There is no bar on cultivation of tobacco crop for alternative uses even after 2028'
BANGALORE: "Pakodas" fried in tobacco oil? Well, that may soon be a reality. According to top officials of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), the oil has been scientifically tested and found to be edible.
The cost of the oil, produced from tobacco seeds, is said to be only half of what conventional edible oil costs.
Tobacco plants are synonymous with odorous cigarettes and beedis.
Alternative uses
But now scientists are trying to create awareness on alternative uses of tobacco as India has to reduce tobacco cultivation by 50 per cent by 2028 in accordance with a World Health Organisation directive.
Director, Central Tobacco Research Institute, V. Krishnamurthy, explained that there was no bar on cultivation of tobacco crop for alternative uses even after 2028. ICAR Deputy Director-General S.K. Datta pointed out that tobacco plants could be used for several other applications such as extracting edible oil, production of vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
He told The Hindu on the sidelines of a workshop on tobacco organised by the University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore, and Central Tobacco Research Institute here on Saturday that the U.S. and several European countries were making progress with regard to alternative uses of tobacco, especially in pharmaceuticals.
Mr. Datta said that the tobacco plant had several bio-components which were useful in production of vaccines, enzymes, bio-compounds and medicines, especially related to treating malaria and cholera.
He said that the advantage was that the tobacco plant had higher bio-mass and the cost of production of bio-compounds would be cheaper.
In fact, it was possible to extract nicotine from the tobacco plant and sell it as there was high demand for it in the pharmaceutical industry, he said, while pointing out that the plant was also rich in proteins.
Mr. Datta and Dr. Krishnamurthy said that Karnataka, which topped in terms of production of international quality tobacco, had great potential to cash in on such alternative uses of tobacco.
Speaking at the workshop, assistant director-general, ICAR, K.C. Jain stressed the need for moving to alternative uses of tobacco.
Vice-Chancellor of UAS P.G. Chengappa released a book, "Two decades of research on FCV tobacco", brought out by the All India Network Research Project, Shimoga.

- The modality constituent : a neglected area in the study of first language acquisition (1978)
- Studies of syntax in first language acquisition have so far concentrated on the propositional side of the sentence, i.e. on the occurrence and interplay of semantic roles like agent, benefactive, objective, etc. and their syntactic expression. The modality constituent, however, has received little attention in the study of child language. This may be due in part to the impetus more recent research in this field has received from studies of the acquisition of English, a language with poor verb morphology as compared to synthetic languages. The research to be presented in this paper is concerned with an early stage of the acquisition of Modern Greek as a first language, a language with a particularly rich verb morphology. Since modality, aspect, and tense are obligatorily marked on the main verb in Mod. Greek, this language offers an excellent opportunity for studying the development of these fundamental categories of verbal grammar at an earlier stage than in more analytic languages. [...] As this paper is concerned with the semantic categories of verbal grammar mentioned above as weIl as with their formal expression, only utterances containing a verb will be considered. For reasons of space we shall further limit ourselves to those utterances containing a main verb. Such utterances divide into two classes, modal and non-modal. [...] In spite of Calbert's claim (Calbert 1975) that there are no strictly non-modal expressions, affirmative and negative statements as well as questions not containing a modal verb will be considered as non-modal. As will be shown below, modal and non-modal expressions are formally differentiated at the stage of language acquisition studied.
- The development of modality in language acquisition (1983)
- Defined as a general inner-linguistic function, modality pervades language and there can thus be no strictly nonmodal predicative expressions. We shall, however, in what follows, keep to grammatical tradition and exclude declarative and interrogative sentences in the indicative mood from consideration. Although a thorough study of the development of modal negation should prove most rewarding, we must renounce such an attempt out of space limits. […] [W]e shall be concerned with the formal linguistic devices employed by the child for expressing modality in various languages and the functions these serve, i.e. how they are used. Only by the conjoint study of form and function can one hope to arrive at a fair understanding of how the modalizing function develops in the ontogenesis of language.
- First verbs : On the way to mini-paradigms (2000)
- This 18th issue of ZAS-Papers in Linguistics consists of papers on the development of verb acquisition in 9 languages from the very early stages up to the onset of paradigm construction. Each of the 10 papers deals with first-Ianguage developmental processes in one or two children studied via longitudinal data. The languages involved are French, Spanish, Russian, Croatian, Lithuanien, Finnish, English and German. For German two different varieties are examined, one from Berlin and one from Vienna. All papers are based on presentations at the workshop 'Early verbs: On the way to mini-paradigms' held at the ZAS (Berlin) on the 30./31. of September 2000. This workshop brought to a close the first phase of cooperation between two projects on language acquisition which has started in October 1999: a) the project on "Syntaktische Konsequenzen des Morphologieerwerbs" at the ZAS (Berlin) headed by Juergen Weissenborn and Ewald Lang, and financially supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, and b) the international "Crosslinguistic Project on Pre- and Protomorphology in Language Acquisition" coordinated by Wolfgang U. Dressler in behalf of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.
- Studies on the development of grammar in German, Russian and Bulgarian (2003)
- The papers of this 33th volume of the ZAS Papers in Linguistics present intermediate results of the ZAS-project on language acquisition. Currently we deal with the question of which functions children assign to the first grammatical forms they use productively. The goal is to identify grammatical features comprising the child's early grammar. This issue is investigated within the analyses of longitudinal data (cf. the papers of Gagarina/Bittner, Gagarina, Kühnast/Popova/Popov, Bewer) as well as within experimental research (see the papers of Bittner, Kühnast/Popova/Popov). The main topic of this volume is the acquisition of definite articles and verbal aspect. Bewer – who has worked as a student assistant in the project for a long time and wrote her MA-thesis on the topic of the project – investigates children's acquisition of gender features in German. Kühnast/Popova/Popov discuss the correlations between the acquisition of definite articles and verbal aspect in Bulgarian. Bittner presents results of an experimental study on definite article perception in adult German. Gagarina traces the emergence of aspectual oppositions in Russian and examines the validity of the 'aspect before tense' hypothesis for L1-speaking children. Additionally, the paper of Gagarina/Bittner deals with the interrelation between the acquisition of finiteness and verb arguments in Russian and German.
- Intersentential pronominal reference in child and adult language : proceedings of the Conference on Intersentential Pronominal Reference in Child and Adult Language, December 1 - 2, 2006, Zentrum für Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft (ZAS), Berlin (2007)
- The 48th volume of the ZAS Papers in Linguistics presents selected papers from the conference on Intersentential pronominal reference in child and adult language held at the ZAS in December, 2006. The conference, organized by the project Acquisition and disambiguation of intersentential pronominal reference, brought together leading researchers dealing with anaphora resolution in diverse theoretical approaches and the acquisition perspective on pronominal reference taken by the ZAS project.
- The Acquisition of Intensifiers versus Reflexive Pronouns (2000)
- The ultimate goal of the study is to examine the acquisition of intensifiers in English and German. In this paper an overview of the first results regarding four L1 English-speaking children will be given. Contrary to previous claims in the literature (e.g. Thomas 1990), it will be argued that intensifiers are used by children in early phases of language acquisition. Intensifiers play an important role in early phases of language acquisition since they can be used to express the wish either to be included or excluded in a certain action and thus contribute to structuring a central aspect of the child's discourse.
- The Acquisition of Clitic Objects in Modern Greek : Single Clitics, Clitic Doubling, Clitic Left Dislocation (2000)
- The present study is concerned with Single Clitics, as weil as with Clitic Doubling and Clitic Left Dislocation constructions and will test the Uniformity Hypothesis (Sportiehe 1992), according to which all three constructions involve the same underlying structure. It will be shown that: - acquisition data pose a problem for the Uniforrnity Hypothesis (Sportiche 1992) and support rather the idea that Single Clitic, Clitic Doubling and Clitic Left Dislocation constructions do not involve the same underlying structure, - omission of definite articles in Clitic Doubling and Clitic Left Dislocation constructions parallels omission of definite articles in simple DPs, - selective omission of some types of Determiners, i.e. definite articles and use of another type of Determiners, i.e. clitic pronouns, can be explained in terms of the different feature specification of words belonging to the category D and the different status of clitics vs. definite articles.

Envelope - To Hope Macpherson, Poems About Bungeeltap, Melbourne, 1927 Reg. No: HT 30702
- Summary:
- Envelope posted to Hope Macpherson containing two poems, one of which was written by her Aunt Ada, about the property Bungeeltap, near Ballan.
Hope Macpherson was the first female curator at National Museum of Victoria (now Museum Victoria). Hope along with Isobel Bennett, Susan Ingham and Mary Gillham were the first women to visit the Antarctic in their December 1959 expedition.
- Description:
- Beige envelope.
- Statement Of Significance:
- The Hope (Macpherson) Black Collection is a significant addition to Museum Victoria's working lives collection, it reveals the journey of a woman from depression era Melbourne and illustrates the power of education. It also reveals the often discriminatory policies in place in Victoria before the equal opportunity developments of the late 20th century. In balance though it also exposes the somewhat free expression possible for empowered women in this period. Hope Macpherson clearly states that in her day to day work she never felt discrimination and believes she was given great opportunity to pursue her career and aspirations. However, on analysis her role was often shaped by her gender and its perceived strengths and weaknesses; she was dissuaded from applying to become a taxidermist as it was 'an unsuitable job for a woman', although part of the first group of female scientists allowed to travel to Macquarie Island they were not permitted to camp on land with the male crew for fear of inciting passions. And finally after a distinguished career she was forced to resign her tenure as Australia's first female Curator when she married late in life, as a consequence of the Marriage bar.

Kaposi sarcoma (KS) was first described in 1872 by the Hungarian dermatologist, Moritz Kaposi. From that time until the current human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease epidemic identified with the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), KS remained a rare tumor. While most of the cases seen in Europe and North America have occurred in elderly men of Italian or Eastern European Jewish ancestry, the neoplasm also occurs in several other distinct populations: young black African adult males, prepubescent children, renal allograft recipients, and other patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy. The disseminated, fulminant form of KS associated with HIV disease is referred to as epidemic KS to distinguish it from the classic, African, and transplant-related varieties of the neoplasm. In addition, KS has been identified in homosexual men apart from the HIV disease epidemic.[1]
Although the histopathology of the different types of the Kaposi tumor is essentially identical in all of these groups, the clinical manifestations and course of the disease differ dramatically.[2] A key piece to the puzzle of KS pathogenesis was the 1994 discovery of a gamma herpes virus, human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8), also known as Kaposi sarcoma herpes virus.[3] HHV-8 was identified in KS tissue biopsies from virtually all patients with classic, African, transplant-related, and AIDS-associated KS but was absent from noninvolved tissue.[4,5,6,7]
Recommended Related to Cancer
The main ingredient of 714-X is camphor, which comes from the wood and bark of the camphor tree (see Question 1). It is claimed that 714-X helps the immune system fight cancer (see Question 3). No study of 714-X has been published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal to show it is safe or effective in treating cancer (see Question 6). 714-X is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States (see Question 8).
Classic Kaposi Sarcoma
Considered a rare disease, classic KS occurs more often in males, with a ratio of approximately 10 to 15 males to 1 female. In North Americans and Europeans, the usual age at onset is between 50 and 70 years. Classic KS tumors usually present with one or more asymptomatic red, purple, or brown patches, plaques, or nodular skin lesions. The disease is often limited to single or multiple lesions usually localized to one or both lower extremities, especially involving the ankles and soles.
Classic KS most commonly runs a relatively benign, indolent course for 10 to 15 years or more, with slow enlargement of the original tumors and the gradual development of additional lesions. Venous stasis and lymphedema of the involved lower extremity are frequent complications. In long-standing cases, systemic lesions can develop along the gastrointestinal tract, in lymph nodes, and in other organs. The visceral lesions are generally asymptomatic and are most often discovered only at autopsy, though clinically, gastrointestinal bleeding can occur. As many as 33% of the patients with classic KS develop a second primary malignancy, which is most often non-Hodgkin lymphoma.[8,9,10]

We all thought this chicken was pretty terrific. We used the paprika/hot pepper combo but otherwise followed instructions as written. Very tasty.
I used the substitution for the Aleppo, and it was still wonderful! I served it with naan, and I wished that I had saved some of the yogurt marinade before putting the raw chicken in so I could dip the kebabs and naan in it! This is a no-brainer; it's on my weeknight rotation, but it's good enough for company!
Marianted 8 hours and used crushed red pepper/paprika version. Very delicious but a bit spciy. I added baby bella mushrooms and red pepper to the kabobs. Served over basmati rice with a hint of lime zest and chopped green onions folded into the rice once cooked.
Made as written, but with the crushed pepper/paprika option. Flavorful, spicy. Liked by all, but not exceptional.
Amazing. I loved this. The heat of the aleppo is interesting. I am not sure how the crushed pepper could simulate it well. Aleppo has this pleasantly intense heat that doesn't last on the palate. Wonderful recipe.
The chicken was so full of flavor and extremely tender! I marinated it for around 6 hours, served it with these Mezgaldi onions http://www.kayotickitchen.com/ and grilled Naan. I am making it again tonight, 2 days later, at my husbands request (and he rarely requests anything!).
Grill the sliced lemons, too! They are delicious! Made with raita and also grilled some skewered vidalia onion and red pepper. A perfect summer meal.
Made this chicken Sunday-what a hit! It lends itself nicely to improvising. Didn't have plain greek yogurt so i used greek vanilla,figuring the spices were strong enough to mask it and they were. The important reason to use the greek is it is so thick it really coats the chicken.I put in a lot of fresh lemon juice and lots of garlic. I made the paste as the recipe recommends but next time would put the spices in separately. Served on sticks-pretty looking and tasting!
3.5 forks. These came out pretty good. I would maybe reduce the amount of vinegar next time. I made half the recipe using aleppo flakes, non-fat Greek yogurt and chicken breasts which yielded 4 skewers and I cooked them in a grill pan. I marinated the meat for an hour and the meat came out very moist and flavorful.
Wow!! This was a great recipe! My husband loved the dish and so did I. I did not have Aleppo pepper, so I used the substitute given in the recipe. I marinated boneless skinless chicken breasts and grilled them whole instead of cutting up into kabobs. The meat was moist and delicious.

Paris, 5 May 2015 - The French Intelligence Bill was adopted today by the National Assembly1 despite massive cross party opposition against the text's highly harmful measures. With 438 votes for and 86 against, French citizens' representatives have given the Prime Minister the power to watch, massively and with little control, the French population. This is one more step backwards regarding the separation of powers in France, a founding principle of our democratic regime. La Quadrature du Net strongly condemns this surrendering of democratic principles and calls on senators, who will be voting the bill next, to counter this unacceptable vote.
Paris, April 20, 2015 — French President François Hollande announced yesterday that he would bring the Intelligence Bill before the Constitutional Council. At the same time there is growing criticism from all sides, previous support in favour of the bill crumbles. In this light, French president's announcement look nothing more than an evasive action to avoid public debate on crucial provisions. La Quadrature du Net calls on parliamentarians to decide for themselves whether the bill complies or not with fundamental rights and citizens must then hold them accountable.
Paris, 17 April 2015 — The examination of French Intelligence Bill ended this Thursday at the National Assembly. After 4 days of debate, very few enhancements were made to a text that was denounced by an incredibly large number of groups for its dangerous, intrusive and liberty-infringing nature and whose control dispositions are totally inadequate. La Quadrature du Net calls on French representatives to listen to the citizens' demands to reject this text during the final vote on 5 May.
Paris, 15 April 2015 – The Intelligence Billis currently being debated at a fast pace in the French National Assembly and the debates will continue until Thursday 16 April. However, both the French Government and rapporteur Urvoas refuse to hear the growing opposition pointing out the dangers of this unacceptable text. La Quadrature du Net calls on citizens to act and Members of Parliament to face their responsibilities by opposing this text altogether and mass surveillance in general.
Paris, 2 April 2015 — After the challenge introduced against surveillance and massive data retention in February, FFDN (a federation of community-driven non-profit ISPs) and La Quadrature du Net go back to court against the decree establishing the administrative website blocking.
Paris, 1 April 2015 – As the French Intelligence Bill (which should be more aptly called the French Mass Surveillance Bill) is being examined from 1 April by the French Parliament's Law Commission, La Quadrature du Net launches a new campaign website and calls on all citizens to mobilize far and wide in order to convince Members of the French Parliament to refuse a law which, in its current form, organises mass surveillance and legalises intelligence methods that are highly detrimental to fundamental freedoms, all without any serious guarantees against abuse.
Paris, 26 March 2015 — The Minister of Culture announced yesterday a plan of action for the fight against piracy and an agreement (fr) on online advertising negotiated between advertisers, advertising agencies and rightsholders under the supervision of the government. This agreement confirms the fears La Quadrature du Net has expressed over the last several months about the growing threat of repressive online policy (fr). It organises a system in which identifying "massively infringing sites" is relegated to advertising companies while circumventing the law, which alone should be authorised to decide about this in order to adequately guarantee freedom of expression and the right to information. This new development marks a step towards the creation of a private police force in the name of intellectual property rights.
Paris, 26 March 2015 — While presenting the Intelligence bill adopted during the 19 March 2015 Council of Ministers, the Prime Minister proudly asserted that it contained "legal means of action but neither exceptional means nor the generalised surveillance of citizens"!
Paris, 17 March 2015 — The information shared today by Le Figaro regarding the upcoming French Bill on Intelligence, ahead of its presentation before the Council of ministers on Thursday 19 March, only confirms earlier concerns. While this new law was announced as an important overhaul aimed at protecting fundamental rights, the securitarian instrumentalisation of the deadly events of January is bound to lead to an incredible drift in state surveillance practices. La Quadrature du Net calls on citizens and their elected representatives to oppose this bill.
Paris, 3 March 2015 — In late April 2015, the "trade secrets" directive will be discussed in the European Parliament. Having already given in to the pressure of journalists to remove the article on trade secrets in the French Macron Bill, La Quadrature du Net, Pila and a number of other organisations now call on president François Hollande and European representatives to defend whistleblowers, to define and protect their status and to ensure the necessary means are provided for judiciary follow-up on the crimes and offences that are revealed. The situation of whistleblowers, such as Edward Snowden or Chelsea Manning, is often dramatic and they must be protected and their safety guaranteed in order to safeguard fundamental freedoms.
Paris, 19 February 2015 — Together with FFDN, a federation of community-driven non-profit ISPs, La Quadrature du Net is bringing a legal action before the French Council of State against a decree on administrative access to online communications metadata. Through this decree, it is a whole pillar of the legal basis for Internet surveillance that is being challenged. This appeal, which builds on the European Union Court of Justice's recent decision on data retention, comes as the French government is instrumentalizing last month's tragic events to further its securitarian agenda, with an upcoming bill on intelligence services.
Recent Paris attacks have triggered a wave of securitarian discourse and dangerous upcoming legislative measures that are spreading way beyond France. Increased control of communications online, surveillance, attacks against anonymous speech and encryption are already on the table, under the pretence of fighting an invisible enemy in a perpetual war.
Paris, February 6, 2015 - After review by the French Cabinet last Wednesday, the implementation decree for the administrative blocking of pedopornographic and terrorist websites was published today.
La Quadrature du Net reposts here an co-signed letter by a number of European associations calling on world's political leaders to protect privacy and human rights in the aftermath of the Paris attacks.
Paris, 30 January 2015 – In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo tragedy, the undersigned call on our political world leaders to uphold international human rights. It is more important than ever that our governments work to protect journalists, activists and members of the public, without increasing the scope and scale of government intrusions into our private lives.
Paris, 28 January 2015 – On the occasion of the European Data Privacy Day, the Observatoire des Libertés et du Numérique (Freedoms and Digital Observatory) recalls on its first year's work and reminds us that privacy is more crucial now than ever. As the terrorist attacks on early January provide an excuse to give in to the temptation of mass surveillance, the OLN reasserts its commitment to contest a society turned against citizens' privacy and freedoms, based on mistrust and surveillance.

Attorney: Sinton's closed-door meetings illegal
CORPUS CHRISTI - Sinton school Superintendent Steve VanMatre would like to know where he fell short in convincing city officials to back a wind turbine project at Sinton High School.
But he doesn't know, because two city boards held their discussions and made a policy decision behind closed doors.
"This is, on its face, illegal," said Joe Larsen, an attorney and director of the Freedom of Information Foundation of Texas, an open government advocacy group.
City Attorney Heather Meister could not be reached for comment.
City Manager Jackie Knox said the board members requested the closed session because they knew a crowd of school officials would be attending.
"It was an intimidation deal of having all the school people there," Knox said. "It's just small town politics. They felt intimidated if they had to discuss it out in open session."
Larsen said the closed-door meetings render the city's decision voidable by any person who wants to challenge it in court, and it opens the board members to prosecution for misdemeanor violations of the Texas Open Meetings Act. The chief prosecutor in San Patricio County, District Attorney Patrick Flanigan, could not be reached for comment.
School officials went to a joint meeting of the city's Board of Adjustment and the Planning and Zoning Commission on Monday night to state their case for two wind turbines at the school. VanMatre said the federally funded project would give students a rare opportunity to apply math, science, physics and engineering lessons in a way that directly impacts them.
Opponents worried about noise, visual impacts, and whether granting variances to the city's wind turbine ordinance would set a precedent for disregarding the rights of property owners whom the ordinances are meant to protect.
It was the most controversial issue to come before city officials in months, according to residents and officials at the meeting, where visitors packed the city's council chambers and spilled into the lobby.
The two boards listened to the arguments from school officials and residents before the Planning and Zoning Commission went into closed session for about 20 minutes. When they reconvened in public, they announced a recommendation to deny the variances. They did not take a public vote.
The Board of Adjustment, which has the final say over variances, then went into closed session for about 70 minutes to talk about whether to accept the recommendation. They reconvened and voted in public, with no discussion, to reject the variances for the school district.
There had been questions about the cost of the project, how much it would cost to maintain, how much energy savings the district would net, how loud the turbines would be. What would be the impacts from the shadows cast by spinning blades? Could the district sell electricity back to the power grid? How would children learn from the turbines? What's the impact to a nearby residential developer? Does having a symbol of green energy and technological progress in town outweigh the objections?
Residents walked away from Monday's meeting with no idea how their representatives felt about any of these issues.
Larsen said the planning commission and Board of Adjustment violated state law in several ways. First, neither board announced the reason for its closed session before convening in private. Meister, the city attorney, would not cite the section of the Open Meetings Act that applied when the Caller-Times objected to closed session.
"I can think of no exception that would apply and quite obviously they couldn't either," Larsen said.
Next, the planning commission made a policy decision in private without taking a public vote. Finally, the Open Meetings Act has no exemption that allows city boards to debate the merits of a variance in private.
Larsen predicted city officials might try to rely on an exemption that allows government bodies to confer with attorneys in private on legal issues, but he said that argument is thin.
"Obviously this was not a discussion with their lawyer," he said. "They went in to talk about whether they should or shouldn't do it. The whole idea on this is public accountability. At least in the case of the Board of Adjustment, the public knows how the board members voted. In the Planning and Zoning instance they don't even know who stands where. It's astonishing."

If you're looking for a way to spruce up your bedroom try this tutorial from Alexa Westerfield for a Paper Graffiti Lamp. Making your own graffiti is easy when you use some paint and telephone book pages.
- Tulip® Fashion Graffiti™ paint taggers
- Tulip® Fabric Spray Paint in orange and black
- Aleene's Tacky Glue
- Yellow acrylic paint
- Lampshade
- Phonebook
- Ruler
- X-acto knife
- Foam brushes
- Stencils/stickers (I used Tim Holtz masks and large and small vinyl Stickers)
- Paper towels
- Acrylic spray sealer
- Cutting mat
- Rip out phone book pages. I didn't want my pages to align perfectly, so I cut them at a diagonal using X-acto and ruler on mat. I did this so that I could create a straight edge to align with the top of my lampshade border.
- Rip apart page as desired.
- Slightly water down acrylic paint so that it is slightly transparent.
- Spray with fabric spray for a cool spattered effect. Set aside and let dry.
- Once phone book pages are dry, water down (slightly) the Tacky glue and spread all over back of each piece covering entire back. Place on lamp, aligning, and then collaging in all the rest of the areas until totally covered. Spread evenly and smooth as you apply to prevent air bubbles.
- Spritz entire lamp share with black fabric spray. I liked doing small squirts so that it would create a dripped effect.
- Lay down stickers/stencils and cover over top with various paints and sprays. I actually just used my finger to spread the paints around. I just played different colors/textures until I was happy with the end result.
- Clean up any messy areas or edges with paper towels. Let dry. Seal with an acrylic sealer. Here's a detail with it illuminated and here's a detail of it with the light off.

6-10 Cebu slotman June Mar Fajardo joining PBA draft
MANILA, Philippines—The projected top pick has signified his intention to join the 2012 PBA Rookie Draft, while another marquee player may throw in his name, too, by next week.
June Mar Fajardo disclosed Thursday his plans to join the pro league, while national team standout Chris Tiu has also set a self-imposed deadline for his own application.
"Gusto ko ng maglaro sa PBA, kahit naman sino kumuha sa akin (I want to play in the PBA, I won't mind which team will draft me)," Fajardo said in an interview yesterday with a radio reporter.
As of yesterday afternoon, the PBA office has yet to receive Fajardo's application.
A prized 6-foot-10 slotman from Cebu, Fajardo last saw action with San Miguel Beer in the Asean Basketball League.
Petron owns the top pick for the draft slated on Aug. 19 at Robinsons Midtown Manila.
Tiu, meanwhile, said he'll decide by Wednesday if he'll join the draft.
"It's now or never," said the 27-year-old Tiu. "It's this year or not. If I don't join this year, that's it for me."
The former national team captain had hoped to continue donning the national colors, but the Smart Gilas program was discontinued.
Tiu, though, doesn't see coaching as an option even after local basketball's poster boy recently agreed to teach the basketball basics on television.
"Coaching at a professional or collegiate level, as of now, I don't think so," said Tiu.
Sports5, the sports arm of TV5, recently tapped Tiu to host the "1-on-1 Tiu-torials" instructional, which will air on free TV on AKTV on IBC 13 and 24/7 sports channel HYPER.
"To be able to have a well conceptualized sports segment, you have to supplement it with being seen on court," said Tiu.
