U-46 Scores on Standardized Test Still below State Average
Dillon, Naomi, Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL)
Byline: Naomi Dillon Daily Herald Staff Writer
Although they continue to close the gap, students in Elgin Area School District U-46 still lag behind the state average when it comes to the Illinois Standards Achievement Test or ISAT.
District administrators presented the results and their analysis of the 2002 test - which students took in April - during Monday's school board meeting.
On average, slightly more than half of the students tested - third, fourth, fifth and eighth-graders - met or exceeded standards set by the state board of education in the subjects of reading, writing, math, social science and science.
Bonnie Wilkerson, the district's director of research, evaluation and assessment, said the district composite score was a grainy picture of what was occurring in the 38 elementary and seven middle schools.
To illustrate her point, Wilkerson said third-graders across the district improved their writing scores by two percent from last year to this year.
But 21 schools achieved gains from two to 25 percent, while 15 schools saw scores drop from one to 30 percent.
"The district view is important," Wilkerson said. …

Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker, better known as the acid jazz downtempo sensation Zero 7, performed to a near capacity crowd at Toronto's Phoenix Concert Theatre not quite two weeks ago. The duo, based out of London England and supported by vocalists Eska Mtungwazi and Martha Tilston, was in town for the first time in three years to promote their new album Yeah Ghost. The contributing artists accompanied Binns and Hardaker's signature synth-driven melodies with a plethora of traditional and unique instruments, often giving the impression that you were listening to totally different bands from one song to the next. The songs constantly transitioned from jazzy numbers, like "Pop Art Blue" with its soulful lyrics, to bass heavy instrumentals, such as "Seeing Things," that were reminiscent of early "808 State" songs and had the crowd dancing around with reckless abandon. This variety of tempo and style kept the performance unpredictable and very entertaining to watch. A lively three-song encore that included "In The Waiting Line," "The Pageant Of The Bizarre," and "All Of Us" concluded an already strong performance and left fans shouting "Zero 7 rules" and clapping long after the band left the stage.

With Big Eyes starring Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz poised to hit theaters this winter, director Tim Burton now has his focused on his forthcoming adaptation of the novel Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. 20th Century Fox recently pushed the film back again to March 4th, 2016, but it sounds like that's not stopping Burton from getting the cast together as The Wrap reports Asa Butterfield, star of Hugo and Ender's Game, is wanted to lead the film about 16-year old Jacob Portman, who seeks the truth about his grandfather's past after he's murdered by a "hollow," a creature thought to be imaginary.

Is Contact the best science fiction film that no one talks about? I had never seen Robert Zemeckis' 1997 film about mankind's first contact with extraterrestrial life, but after listening to Movies.com editor Peter Hall call it one of his favorite films of all time, I decided to rectify that. What I found was one of the most thoughtful and entertaining sci-fi movies ever made, a film that deserves to be in the same conversation as Close Encounters of the Third Kind and 2001: A Space Odyssey. And then Peter and I sat down to talk about why a movie this good has been so overlooked. Jacob: Let's talk about Contact. The funny thing about this... I remember seeing the trailer when I was younger, but otherwise I knew nothing about Contact going in. I didn't...

Originally written on Eagles Addict | Last updated 7/6/13
There was no greater position that the Philadelphia Eagles needed to upgrade this offseason than in the defensive secondary. That was obviously the case as the team signed two new starting corners and two players who could potentially be the new starters at safety. I say "potential" new starters at safety because, while the tandem of Kenny Phillips and Patrick Chung would be upgrades over the tandem of Nate Allen and Kurt Coleman, neither player is a lock to actually start come opening day. Phillips has health issues and Chung probably would not start over Nate Allen if Phillips ends up being healthy enough to play. Photo from buffalobills.com When the offseason began, I had Bills safety Jairus Byrd as tops on my list of potential free agent signings if he became available. Unfortunately, he never made it since he was slapped with the franchise tag, as was expected. However, nothing has happened since then and Byrd still has not signed his tender. Reports are coming out saying th...

How long does gabapentin stay in your system and does it show up on drug test?

- Topics:
- gabapentin, drug test
Answers (1)
that's not true about testing. if the test is sent out to a lab(common for most half-way houses) they do tests for gabapentin, due to the fact that neurontin(johnies) is a commonly abused med in sober living communities. but with a quick cup it won't show up. my boy just got kicked outta the 1/2 way house we were in for gabapentin
I am sorry you are facing adversity, I wish you and your family the best.-
Take care,
Thank you all who answered. ive never taken them before. i just graduated a program

Future optical transmission systems and signal processing circuits will require optical pulse sources capable of producing subpicosecond (sub-ps) pulses with low timing jitter at repetition rates of tens of gigahertz. In this paper, we present the theory, design, and measurements of a novel InP-based hybrid mode-locked laser diode (MLLD) structure with an ultrafast monolithically integrated, reverse-biased, uni-traveling-carrier (UTC) absorber. The necessity of an ultrafast absorber to obtain sub-ps pulses is analyzed and explained with our advanced time-domain rate-equation model. The realized MLLD demonstrated clean sub-ps pulses of 900 fs at 42-GHz repetition rate and the potential in an optimized device to reach values around 600 fs.

Yes, the X-E1 and X-Pro1 can both be configured this way by simply placing the camera into MF mode. The AE-L/AF-L button then becomes an AF button.

The Story of Psychology
Anchor Books, 2007 - Psychology - 877 pages
Socrates, Plato, Descartes, Spinoza, Mesmer, William James, Pavlov, Freud, Piaget, Erikson, and Skinner. Each of these thinkers recognized that human beings could examine, comprehend, and eventually guide or influence their own thought processes, emotions, and resulting behavior. The lives and accomplishments of these pillars of psychology, expertly assembled by Morton Hunt, are set against the times in which the subjects lived. Hunt skillfully presents dramatic and lucid accounts of the techniques and validity of centuries of psychological research, and of the methods and effectiveness of major forms of psychotherapy.
Fully revised, and incorporating the dramatic developments of the last fifteen years, The Story of Psychology is a graceful and absorbing chronicle of one of the great human inquiries—the search for the true causes of our behavior.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy, godly lives you should be living! (2 Peter 3:11 LB)
Your commitments can develop you, or they can destroy you, but either way, they will define you. Tell me what you're committed to, and I'll tell you what you'll be in twenty years.
It is at this very point of commitment that most people miss God's purpose for their lives. Many are afraid to commit to anything, so they just drift through life. Others make half-hearted commitments to competing values, and that leads to frustration and mediocrity. Others make a full commitment to worldly goals, such as becoming wealthy or famous, and they end up disappointed and bitter.
Every choice we make has eternal consequences, so we need to choose wisely: "Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy, godly lives you should be living!" (2 Peter 3:11 LB). As believers, we should be defined by godly, loving commitments. If we want to become more like Jesus, then we need to commit to the same things he did.

Most people want to be closer to God and experience more fulfilling relationships. Jesus gave us the keys to accomplish this when he taught us that of all God's commands only two are most important: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbors as yoursef. This sounds so easy, but we struggle in this area. That's why Pastor Rick developed the 40 Days of Love Study Kit. This unigue tool will equip you to fulfill the two greatest commandments. And, as you learn to live a love powered life you will grow closer to God and others. You'll become more like Jesus!
Everyone has a life principle, whether it's comfort, fun, safety, or affirmation. Join Pastor Rick for this series that walks through the ways to make love the most important goal of your life and be obedient to Christ: "Let love be your greatest aim" (1 Corinthians 14:1).

Old English rice "strong, powerful; great, mighty; of high rank," in later Old English "wealthy," from Proto-Germanic *rikijaz (cf. Old Norse rikr, Swedish rik, Danish rig, Old Frisian rike "wealthy, mighty," Dutch rijk, Old High German rihhi "ruler, powerful, rich," German reich "rich," Gothic reiks "ruler, powerful, rich"), borrowed from a Celtic source akin to Gaulish *rix, Old Irish ri (genitive rig) "king," from PIE root *reg- "move in a straight line," hence, "direct, rule" (see rex).
The form of the word was influenced in Middle English by Old French riche "wealthy, magnificent, sumptuous," which is, with Spanish rico, Italian ricco, from Frankish *riki "powerful," or some other cognate Germanic source.
Old English also had a noun, rice "rule, reign, power, might; authority; empire." The evolution of the word reflects a connection between wealth and power in the ancient world. Of food and colors, from early 14c.; of sounds, from 1590s. Sense of "entertaining, amusing" is recorded from 1760. The noun meaning "the wealthy" was in Old English.

In the meantime, Obama encouraged the company to pursue a shorter portion of the pipeline from Oklahoma to Texas, which would help relieve a bottleneck in Cushing. TransCanada received the necessary permits for that southern portion earlier this year and began construction.
But many Texas landowners have taken to the courts to fight the company's land condemnations in a state that has long wed its fortunes to oil.
Bishop owns 20 acres in Douglass, a town about 160 miles north of Houston. He used to raise poultry and goats on the land where he lives with his wife and 16-year-old daughter, he said, but sold the animals about two years ago because of the planned pipeline. Initially, the Vietnam War veteran said, he fought the company's attempt to condemn his land, but settled because he could not afford the lawyer's fees of $10,000.
Bishop said he settled under "duress," so he bought a law book and decided to defend himself. Since then, he has filed a lawsuit in Austin against the Texas Railroad Commission, the state agency that oversees pipelines, arguing it failed to properly investigate the pipeline and protect groundwater, public health and safety.
Aware that the oil giant could have a battery of lawyers and experts at the hearing later this month, Bishop, a 64-year-old retired chemist currently in medical school, said he is determined to fight.
"Bring 'em on. I'm a United States Marine. I'm not afraid of anyone. I'm not afraid of them," he said. "When I'm done with them, they will know that they've been in a fight. I may not win, but I'm going to hurt them."

US hits Iran with fresh sanction on banks 390 R.
(photo credit: REUTERS/Morteza Nikoubazl)
Lesley Stahl (on US sanctions against Iraq): We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima.... Is the price worth it?" Madeleine Albright (then-UN ambassador, later secretary of state in the Clinton administration): "I think this is a very hard choice, but... we think the price is worth it. – 60 Minutes, May 12, 1996 US economic sanctions against North Korea have failed for 40 years... Economic sanctions are blunt instruments that wreak havoc with an economy. They especially afflict a country's ordinary citizens, often without affecting the ruling elite. – Thomas Henriksen, Hoover Institute, Stanford University, October 1998 Wednesday's protests against the Iranian regime are an encouraging sign that sanctions imposed on that country are beginning to bite, but it is way too early to deem them a sign of success in halting Tehran's drive for nuclear capability.For although it certainly would be a welcome outcome if the sanctions induce Iran to end its nuclear program before it attains the ability to weaponize the enriched uranium it has/will have produced, there is good reason to doubt that they will.Flawed logic of sanctions Experience leaves scant room for optimism. In recent decades, sanctions – no matter how severe – have had little success in coercing dictatorial regimes to comply with demands from the international community.The operational rationale of sanctions, as an instrument of policy, has, in many respects, been deeply flawed, particularly if their objective is to elicit timely compliance from a despotic regime. To a large degree, the envisaged mechanism of their operation is entirely illogical.In principle, sanctions try to achieve their goal by imposing punitive measures – typically the denial of welfare-producing goods/services – on a civilian population that has little influence on, and whose well-being is largely irrelevant to, the despotic rulers from whom compliance is required.Those who are subject to the sanctions have little, if any, contact with those who are the object of the sanctions. It is thus highly improbable that the suffering of the former will induce the latter to make the response the sanctions were designed to precipitate – certainly not with the required alacrity.This stark disconnect between cause and effect was dramatically illustrated in the case of Iraq, where unspeakable hardships wrought by sanctions on the civilian population, for over a decade, failed to make Saddam Hussein bow to international demands.Inefficacy of sanctions The futility of inflicting punishment on people who can neither make the requisite decision for terminating the punishment, nor sway those who can, was succinctly conveyed in a 2011 Strategic Research Project conducted at the US Army War College (USAWC) on the "Efficacy of Economic Sanctions": "After Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990 the UNSC passed Resolution 661, imposing the most comprehensive sanctions ever implemented by the UN.... Resolution 661 created a humanitarian crisis in Iraq in the late 1990s."Yet, as the Strategic Research Project noted, despite the comprehensiveness of the sanctions and the widespread human suffering they caused, the sanctions did not succeed in forcing Iraqi forces to leave Kuwait, instead forcing the UN to use military force to achieve the resolution's objectives.Continuation of sanctions after the First Gulf War failed to achieve full compliance by Iraq of the cease-fire resolution, providing partial justification for the invasion and toppling of the Iraqi government in 2003.The project goes on to conclude: "Economic sanctions have had minimal effect in dissuading [countries such as] Pakistan, N. Korea and Iran from pursuing and obtaining nuclear weapons," since their drive to acquire nuclear capability "outweighed any negative costs from sanctions."Significantly, it observes that when sanctions are applied to regimes such as in Iraq, these "eventually required reinforcing by military action to finally force compliance."Flawed morality of sanctions It is not only the logic and the efficacy of sanctions that are flawed, but in many ways, their morality. For as we have seen, almost by definition, they target innocent civilians.When this is applied to extremely authoritarian regimes, it appears little more than mindless injustice, for the victims of the sanctions have little capacity to change the policy for which sanctions were applied. Imposing deepening and prolonged deprivation on them seems senseless and futile.Perusal of the impact of the effects of sanctions reveals that there is little room for those who advocate sanctions over the use of military force to claim the moral high ground.For example, the sanctions against Iraq were a near-total financial and trade embargo imposed by the UN. They began on August 6, 1990, four days after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, staying largely in force until May 2003.Although there is considerable dispute as to the exact figures, what is beyond dispute is that the sanctions resulted in death, disease and destitution on an appalling scale.(As an aside, it is worthy of note that the suffering inflicted by this US-led, UN-endorsed initiative dwarfs that allegedly caused by Israel's quarantine of Gaza. Moreover, most the participating countries were not directly threatened by the Iraqi regime, neither in terms of their national security, nor in terms of the physical safety of their citizens, in the way Israel and Israelis are threatened by the regime in Gaza.) Death, disease and destitution The estimates of sanction-related deaths in Iraq have been put as high as one million, up to 500,000 of them children. There was a dramatic and documented spike in infant mortality, more than doubling (from 47 to 108 per 1,000 live births) in the southern and central areas of the country.Water-borne diseases were rampant because of the prohibition on importation of chlorine and equipment for sewage treatment plants. Malnutrition was rife –particularly among children, afflicting up to one-third of under-five year olds.But medical ailments were not the only problem. There was a surge in social ills as well. Literacy rates plummeted – particularly among women. In the 1980s, Iraq had been declared "illiteracy-free" by UNESCO.Today, it has one of the highest levels of illiteracy in the region. The per capita income in Iraq dropped from $3,510 in 1989 to $450 in 1996, heavily influenced by the rapid devaluation of the Iraqi dinar. In late 1989, one dinar was valued at over $3 (although the black-market rate was considerably lower). Six years later, $1 was valued at 3,000 dinars! As poverty became more pervasive, crime and corruption proliferated and Iraqi society became increasing fractured and dysfunctional.Yet despite all this widespread misery and suffering of the populace, Saddam remained defiant and compliance could only be achieved by force. Tyrants' 'tolerance' for tribulation Tyrants have typically shown remarkably high tolerance for the tribulations of others.North Korea is an archetypical case in point. Despite decades of sanctions that imposed crippling penury, famine and starvation on millions of its citizens, it has failed to bow to Western demands, either with regard to human rights or nuclear ambitions. It comprises an edifying and sobering example for Israel.Clearly the North Korean outcome, in which the acquisition of weaponized nuclear capability was not prevented, is unacceptable for Israel. For it, the specter of a nuclearized theocratic tyranny in Tehran has existential significance, far beyond any that a nuclearized Democratic People's Republic of Korea has for the US or its allies.Accordingly, the elements of Pyongyang's resilience and resistance to sanctions are a matter of acute relevance to Israel. The observations of the previously cited USAWC study are significant: "N. Korea presents an extremely difficult challenge for the US.Kim Jong-II realizes that the US and the world will not resort to military force. As long as enforcement of the sanctions can be circumvented through China and other third-parties, Kim Jong-II [today Kim Jong- Un] has no incentive to change his path."The message is clear: In the absence of a credible military threat, sanctions can – and typically are – circumvented while the targeted regime pursues its malevolent goals.Circumventing sanctions while centrifuges spinA paper, "Sanctions as Grand Strategy," published by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (2011), drew a grim parallel between the sources of resilience of the Iranian and North Korean regimes: "... third-party support for Pyongyang and Tehran has had the biggest impact in terms of helping these countries to circumvent the worst effects of sanctions, particularly those targeting trade."Likewise, the USAWC study warns, "Target nations often find it easy to circumvent sanctions by changing habits, finding alternate sources on the black market, or directing the effects away from the regime and down on the populace."Few countries are better endowed to "circumvent" than Iran. It shares a land border of almost 6,000 km. with seven neighbors (Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Pakistan, Turkey and Turkmenistan) and has direct maritime access to Russia and Kazakhstan (via the Caspian Sea) and to numerous counties on the Arabian peninsula across the Persian Gulf. Indeed, a "circumventer's paradise."Moreover, Iran's economy is vastly larger than North Korea's, with a GDP over 20 times higher, and roughly triple its GDP per capita. Accordingly, there is much leeway left before sanctions inflict the kind of economic pain that Pyongyang (and pre-2003 Baghdad) endured – or allowed its people to endure – without submitting to the will of the sanction-imposers.Deceptive deteriorationAccordingly, Iran's capacity to circumvent sanctions and to compensate for their impact should not be underestimated, especially over time. Reports of the impending collapse of the Iranian economy, the ravages of its devaluing currency and the spread of civil unrest should be regarded with caution. For even if true, these developments may have little – or at best, a long-delayed – impact on decision-making echelons in Tehran.This point is often lost on proponents of sanctions/opponents of military force, such as The New York Times' Nicholas Kristof and The Atlantic's J.J. Goldberg, who seem to have difficulty distinguishing between wreaking harm on the Iranian public and getting the ayatollahs to stop the centrifuges.In an inane blog post (June 20) titled "Mr. Netanyahu, Meet Mr. Kristof," Goldberg quotes Kristof's opinion piece (June 16), which conveys the anger and anguish some Iranian manufacturers and traders are feeling, expressing optimistic hope that these might be the harbingers of regime change.What he studiously neglects to mention is that Kristof also describes the abundant availability of up-to-date computers, tablets and smartphones, remarking that despite everything "Iran is a relatively rich and sophisticated country."More significantly, Goldberg omits to mention how Iranian businessmen are finding ways to sidestep sanctions – and hence delay or attenuate their effects – such as the use of the Hawala system (an informal Islamic network for financial transfers) in response to the ban on Iran using the SWIFT facility.Too early, too early... Oops! Too lateFor Israel the issue of time is crucial to its operational decision-making, and the question of when sanctions might succeed is no less pivotal than if they succeed. Thus underestimating Iran's resilience is an unacceptable risk for Israel.For in a world of inherent uncertainty, where – by definition – a decision-maker can never know if he/she can get his/her timing exactly right, it would be far better to launch an attack a little too early, than a little too late. As Middle East Forum fellow Asaf Romirowsky recently remarked: "Israel cannot afford to make any mistakes regarding Iran because 'do-overs' are not an option."For those who warn of Iranian reprisals if force is used, it should be underscored that there is little reason to believe that the negative repercussions of an attack, launched exactly at the last minute, are likely to be significantly different from those of one launched a little too early.Some have warned that a military strike would galvanize the population behind the regime. This leaves one to wonder why suffering induced by military action, resulting from regime-recalcitrance, would induce the population to unite in support of the leaders, while sufferings induced by prolonged sanctions would not.Of course it is difficult to predict with any certainty, but there is a respectable body of scholarly opinion which holds that "economic attacks may rally a beleaguered population to its despot, who points to the United States as the source of its lowered living standards rather than his failed statist policies."So who knows? Avoid use of force The only way to avoid the use of military force is to convince the theocrats of Tehran they face an adversary with unwavering resolve to use it.That is not jingoistic saber rattling – it is just the way of the world.Martin Sherman is the founder and executive director of the Israel Institute for Strategic Studies.www.martinsherman.net

Shining the Hanukkah light on political corruption
Amid Israeli election season, we get the impression that political advantage requires ethical compromise. But that doesn't have to be the case.

Thomas Jefferson said, "Whenever a man has cast a longing eye on offices, a rottenness begins in his conduct." This has been on my mind lately as I have campaigned and been elected to the board of directors of our local "Minhal Kehilati," an integral part of Jerusalem municipal governance on the neighborhood and community level.

Lauranne & Nick {24.5.2014}
{lauranne & nick's wedding cake!}
love is sweet, life is hard, and God is good." — John Piper}
Last week, I was privileged to be part of the wedding covenant & celebration of my super dear friends, Lauranne & Nick. The love for them ain't ever stopping for one of my favourite couples! They're just preeeetty cool people.
The day started beautifully. With hair & make up being done. Our radiant bride telling us how calm she was and how the whole day was really about her marrying Nick & enjoying the company of family and friends.
We met under very interesting circumstances but it's been an instant love story since then! Mwahaha! Let's just say that this blog was vital for our connection
Okay, back to the story! My time in Brisbane consisted of arriving one week before the wedding for the bridal shower/hen's night, a week of shopping, meeting up with friends & baking cupcakes for the wedding before ending the trip with the wedding itself.
{the week leading up to the wedding}
On Friday, Michael kindly came over to help with troubleshooting the wedding cake & thanks to his pro skills, we managed to get the cake up and going. That evening, the bridal party finalized bouquets, emergency kits, did nails, prayed over at the Bearded Dragon.
It was starting to feel real.
On 24.5.2014′s morning, we all woke up to the surreal feeling that it was really happening. Everything ran like clockwork. Make up artists & photographers came and did a fabulous job.
We were able to do a traditional Tea Ceremony with close family members in the warm Aussie sun. Shortly after, we packed up & everyone left for the venue, except the Bridal Party! We waited for the Rolls Royce that would take Lauranne away into happily-ever-after (not really but, you know, an ever after of the hard work that marriage is!) of Mrs Cheong-ness!
{the stunning day!}
The sun was blazing on the crowd as the couple said their personally written vows, and Ps Steven Tran shared on Christian Marriage. It was short and a good reminder of the God who has blessed & perseveres the people in this marriage covenant.
{the beautiful bride & dapper groom}
Lauranne is one of those people who are incredibly grounded, with a penchant for cute stuff! She's one of those people who I jump up to share my deepest values with, wrestle through priorities with, exchange opinions & also enjoy LIVING together! We share lots of things in common, we are different personalities, and that makes us FAST FRIENDS as we learn and enjoy each other! If I haven't mentioned it before, I am a super big fan of her life and I love her dearly! I really look up to Lauranne because she holds her friends close to her & stays reflective, humble & aware that everything she is she owes to God and those around who have shaped her to who she is today! Lauranne also holds the special position in my life as an online-buddy who I got to know through this blog! Yay!
Nick is one of the most loyal guys I know, hard working, never contact with what he has, got a clear direction… AND a streak for dad-jokes. Nick's servant actions have always shown me that there are deeper reasons to why he does what he does. Whenever we have serious conversations, I come out much more thoughtful & of course. Nick, I really admire your life and strength to become independent and protect your new family! You've gotten the girl of your dreams and together y'all are TOPS!
Wah, my heart overflows with love for the both of them. Guys would learn much through interacting with Mr Nick & girls would be blessed like crazy to know Lauranne. Wait, I have the privilege of BOTH! Whoop whoop! Sigh
{the cake!}
So grateful to be part of this. I've said before that some say that baking is their life, or their profession is their life, but nay… Christ is my life & I do what I can in Him & through Him. [#neverforgetthisfact] Yay! Doing what I love and appreciating the Creator who gave me these abilities & love to make beautiful tasting yummy cakes.
Have a great day everyone!
This has been a quietly eventful few weeks, in a quietly eventful year!
I am happily nestled down into working at Excel Collegia, a place in the most part led by my father and offering razzle dazzle Business courses which make my head spin with possibilities of how young people can make a difference in this ol' world in the time we have here at college!
My baking has taken on a slightly more relaxed tone; I don't bake a million cakes a week and my fingers are barely in the kitchen. Instead I roll more on the keyboard (I design, I manage, I now teach too) and baking on weekends is now a luxurious past time I look forward to where I get my hands covered in a new bunch of ingredients naturale.
Yes you heard me right, whatever is Eunice doing back at the drawing board before baking cupcakes? Well healthy ingredients are my new muse! Small as it may be, it is so interesting to try new ingredients and concoct cupcakes that are good for the soul! ????
I've been baking a couple rounds of healthy recipes which
are turning out stellar what with a lot of honest feedback and supportive advice!
I'll be back to update this space to SHOW you what we're up to. For now, toodles and may all your dreams be delicious!
Come back to visit for healthy cupcake soon! Watch this space!

Portal hemodynamic effects of sorafenib in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma: a prospective cohort study.
ABSTRACT Sorafenib is currently in clinical use as an oral multikinase inhibitor that blocks tumor growth and cell proliferation in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It has been demonstrated in a translating study that sorafenib had a beneficial effect on portocollateral circulation in cirrhotic animals with portal hypertension. This study was prospectively performed to evaluate the portal hemodynamic effect of sorafenib in patients with advanced HCC using duplex Doppler ultrasonography (DDU).
Twenty-five Child-Pugh class-A patients with advanced HCC had received sorafenib at a dose of 400 mg twice daily. Primary outcomes were changes in portal venous area (PVA; cm(2)) as seen by using DDU before and after a 2-week administration of sorafenib. Secondary outcomes included the changes of laboratory data and other flow data revealed on DDU.
PVA was significantly decreased after a 2-week administration (0.78 ± 0.23 vs. 0.64 ± 0.25, P = 0.023), while the portal venous flow velocity (PVV; cm/s) was not significantly changed (0.22 ± 0.06 vs. 0.24 ± 0.07, P = 0.17). Therefore, the congestion index (PVA/PVV), which reflects the pathophysiological hemodynamics of portal venous system, was significantly decreased (3.9 ± 1.7 vs. 3.0 ± 1.4, P = 0.042).
We demonstrated the portal hemodynamic effect of sorafenib in patients with advanced HCC. Considering that this was a short-term study, because sorafenib could be a potential beneficial therapeutic agent for portal hypertension, it will be necessary to verify its clinical benefits for portal hypertension in future studies.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Sorafenib is currently the only approved systemic therapy shown to have efficacy in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recent studies suggest that hepatitis C (HCV)-related HCC patients derive more clinical benefit from sorafenib than other subgroups, but the mechanism for this effect is unknown. In vitro data suggest that sorafenib may exert anti-viral properties, and thus our aim in this study was to evaluate potential anti-viral activity of sorafenib in patients with HCV-related HCC. AIM: To evaluate potential anti-viral activity of sorafenib in patients with HCV-related HCC. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled patients with HCV-related HCC treated with sorafenib for up to 6 months. Baseline clinical, viral and oncologic data were collected. Patients' HCV viral loads were obtained at various time points, and compared with their baseline viral levels. No patients received any known anti-viral therapy during this time. RESULTS: Thirty-three patients were identified with baseline and subsequent HCV levels available for analysis. Six patients completed 6 months of full dose sorafenib, and comparisons of their HCV viral loads showed no significant change at week 24 (difference of means = 0.3500, CI: -0.1799-0.8799, P = 0.150), or the interim time points. Similarly, the HCV viral loads of all patients who received sorafenib and the viral loads of those patients who had tumour response to sorafenib showed no significant changes at any time point. CONCLUSION: Despite preclinical data and previous subgroup analyses suggesting that sorafenib has an anti-viral effect against HCV, this study suggests that sorafenib lacks significant anti-viral activity in HCV patients with HCC.Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 10/2012; 37(1).
