This is a continuation-in-part of copending application International Application PCT/US94/01413 filed on Feb. 8, 1994 and which designated the U.S.
The present invention relates to a method for removing leukocytes from suspensions containing them and especially from blood-derived suspensions. The invention also relates to a filter unit which can be used in the above method.
In recent years it has become apparent that leukocytes in transfused blood are in most cases not only superfluous but often detrimental. Leukocytes in the blood have been found to cause non-hemolytic febrile reactions and alloimmunization as well as to harbor viruses.
Donated blood can be used without prior treatment ("whole blood"), or, more frequently, processed to produce a red cell or platelet concentrate. Various methods have been developed to remove leukocytes from these blood products, the most popular being filtration methods.
EP 155003 (to Asahi) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,925,572 (to Pall) describe filtration methods using fibrous, non-woven media to capture the leukocytes as the blood suspension is passed through them. A leukocyte removal rate of over 98% can be obtained using these methods. The disadvantage of these methods is that the filter units used in them have to be composed of many layers of filter media in order to reduce leukocyte counts efficiently while at the same time providing a reasonable flow rate. This makes industrial assembly cumbersome and expensive.
An alternate method of leukocyte filtration has been described in Patent Application EP 406485 (to NPBI Nederlands). This method uses continuous porous membranes for the filtration process instead of fibers. One of the materials used for preparing the membranes described in the above application was cellulose acetate, which was found to give the best results. However, as can be seen in FIG. 9 of the above application, over 35% of the leukocytes remained in the blood filtrate, resulting in a leukocyte removal of less than 65% as compared to greater than 98% for conventional methods. The authors of the above application came to the conclusion that a series of stacked membranes having decreasing pore size in the blood flow direction (`asymmetric filter`) showed a larger leukocyte removal capacity than membranes of uniform pore size. However, only a 25% leukocyte removal percentage was obtained with this `asymmetric` filter, which contained a series of 8 membranes (FIG. 8). The filtration method described in the above application is therefore not useful for the purpose of leukocyte removal from blood products.
Other recent patents have described the use of polyvinylidene fluoride and polyvinyl formal membranes for use in leukocyte removal (see e.g. WO 89/02304).
It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for removing leukocytes from a blood-derived suspension which is efficient, simple and inexpensive.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a filter unit for use in such a method.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for removing leukocytes from a suspension containing erythrocytes and leucocytes comprising, passing the suspension through a filter including a nitrocellulose membrane having a pore size of at least 5 μm and capable of passing erythrocytes while blocking leucocytes.
According to further features in the described preferred embodiments, the filter comprises at least two layers capable of passing erythrocytes, at least one of the layers including the nitrocellulose membrane, which nitrocellulose membrane has a pore size of 5-15 μm and is capable of passing erythrocytes but not leucocytes.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a filter unit for a blood-derived suspension containing both leucocytes and erythrocytes, the unit having a filter for removing leukocytes from the suspension, the filter including a plurality of layers all capable of passing erythrocytes, at least one of the layers being a nitrocellulose membrane having a pore size of at least 5 μm blocking the leucocytes while passing the erythrocytes.
It has surprisingly been found that by using commercially available nitrocellulose membranes, it has been possible to obtain a leukocyte removal percentage of between 97-99% using no more than 2 layers (Note: in this application, a membrane is defined as a continuous, nonfibrous porous matrix, and a layer is defined as consisting of one or more identical filtering elements). This result is unexpected since nitrocellulose membranes are known to be strong binding matrices for proteins. Due to this property they are used extensively in diagnostic kits where protein probes (antigens or antibodies) are irreversibly bound to the membrane surface. It could have been expected that such membranes would clog very easily upon contact with blood due to the binding of blood proteins and corpuscles. It was therefore surprising to find that such membranes are very efficient leukofilters. The filtration is accomplished with a minimal loss of erythrocytes, and blood flow is equivalent to that of conventional fiber filters.
Without limiting the invention in any way, it is thought that the mechanism by which this separation works is probably related to a selective adsorption of leukocytes on the membrane surface. The separation cannot depend on size alone, as erythrocytes and many leukocyte types are of similar size. The invention, however, does not depend on any particular theory of separation.
The method of the invention can be carried out using a single nitrocellulose membrane. Alternatively, two nitrocellulose membranes can be used, or a non-woven or membrane prefilter overlying a nitrocellulose membrane. In a further embodiment of the invention, non-woven fiber sheets can be inserted between individual nitrocellulose membranes so as to act as spacers. Ordinarily, no more than two layers are necessary in order to obtain optimal results. The non-woven prefilter can be prepared from polymer fibers such as polyesters, polyurethane and polypropylene.
The pore size of commercial nitrocellulose membranes compatible with the method of the invention ranges from 5-15 μm, preferably 8-12 μm, and more preferably 8-10 μm. Nitrocellulose membranes with pore sizes greater than 15 μm are generally not available commercially. However, if such membranes become available, it may also be possible to use them in the invention. The pore size of the prefilter also ranges from 5-15 μm.
Nitrocellulose membranes which have been chemically modified may also be used in the method of the invention. This chemical modification may be accomplished by performing a surface grafting reaction in which the membrane is exposed to a suitable initiator while in contact with a monomer. The initiator may be chemical, or it may be gamma or U.V. radiation. Suitable monomers can be various acrylic monomers carrying functional groups such as hydroxy, carboxy or others.
In accordance with this invention there is also provided a filter unit having a filter for removing leukocytes from a leukocyte-containing suspension, the filter including a nitrocellulose membrane having a pore size of 5-15 μm.
Such a filter unit can be constructed, for example, from a conventional reusable filter holder. One or two layers according to the invention are placed in the filter holder which is tightly closed and connected to a reservoir containing a unit of blood or blood product. The blood or blood product is then forced through the filter unit by applying hydrostatic pressure. The layers can be easily replaced after one or more blood units have been filtered through them. Alternatively, the filter unit can be constructed from a disposable filter housing into which the layers are heat sealed, glued or clamped mechanically.
Various leukocyte-containing suspensions can be filtered using the method of the invention. These include whole blood, packed red blood cells and platelet concentrate.
The following examples come to further illustrate and describe the invention disclosed herein. The invention is not to be limited in scope by reason of any of the following examples.
A 25 mm diameter nitrocellulose membrane having a nominal pore size of 12 μm was mounted in a holder of polysulfone. Both membrane and holder are products of Schleicher and Shuell, Germany. Whole blood that was stored for 7 days at 5� C. with citrate anticoagulant was filtered through the filter unit at a hydrostatic pressure of 0.08 atm. The effective filtration area was 3.2 cm2 and the flow rate was 0.53 mL/min.
Results: When the number of cells in the filtrate was measured, the leukocyte count was found to be reduced from 5600 cells per μl in the original blood to 200 cells per μL, a reduction of 96.5%, while the erythrocyte count remained practically unchanged (4.7�106 to 4.6�106 cells/μl).
The procedure of Example 1 was repeated, except that an additional nitrocellulose membrane having a nominal pore size of 8 μm was added beneath the first membrane. The filtration rate was 0.4 mL/min.
Results: The filtered blood was found to contain 50 leukocytes/mL (a 99.1% reduction) and 4.6�106 erythrocytes/mL.
The procedure of Example 2 was repeated, except that the two layers were a 8 μm nitrocellulose membrane overlayed with a 5 μm polyvinyl-chloride prefilter. 24hrs.-old blood was filtered at a rate of 0.5 mL/min.
Results: The leukocyte count of the filtered blood dropped from 10,100 cells/μl to 100 cells/μl (a 99% reduction) while the erythrocyte count slightly dropped from 3.9�106 to 3.8�106 cells/μl.
The procedure of Example 3 was repeated, except that the 8 μm nitrocellulose membrane was replaced with a 12 μmembrane, and a red cell concentrate was used instead of whole blood. The red cell concentrate was 7 days old and stored at 5� C. The filtration rate was 2.0 mL/min.
Results: The leukocyte count dropped 97.3% from 7300 to 200 leukocytes/μl while the erythrocyte count dropped slightly from 8.3�106 to 7.9�106 cells/μl.
The procedure of Example 3 was repeated, except that a non-woven polyurethane prefilterwas placed on top of a 12 μm nitrocellulose membrane. A membrane holder made of Delrin (Gelman Scientific, U.S.A.) was used having an effective filtration area of 3.7 cm2. 48 hrs.-old whole blood was filtered at a rate of 2.1 mL/min.
Results: The leukocyte count was reduced from 7000 to 100 cells/μl (a 98.6% reduction) while the erythrocyte count remained substantially the same (4.0�106 to 3.9�106 cells/μl).
The procedure of Example 1 was repeated, except that a 8 μm nitrocellulose membrane grafted with hydroxy-ethyl-metacrylate was used. The blood flow rate was 0.5 mL/min.
Results: The filtrate contained 50 leukocytes per μl (a 99.1% reduction) while the erythrocyte count remained almost unchanged (4.5�106, down from 4.6�106).
Three 47 mm diameter nitrocellulose membranes of 12 μm pore size were mounted in a polycarbonate holder resulting in a 12 cm2 effective filtration area. The membranes were overlayed with a prefilter comprising four identical sheets of polyester fiber. A unit (290 ml) of packed red blood cells (PRC) containing citrate-phosphate-dextrose (C.P.D.) anticoagulant was prepared by adding 100 ml of SAG-M preservation solution to a final hematocrit of 60%. The filtration was performed at room temperature 6 hrs. after donation.
Results: The first 50 ml of PRC were filtered in 10 min. The leukocyte count of the filtered PRC was found to have dropped from 7400 cells/μL to 4 cells/μL.
The procedure of Example 7 was repeated, except that a 20 hrs.-old PRC unit was used. The prefilter comprised 8 identical sheets of non-woven polyester, each sheet having a thickness of approximately 0.5 mm and a fiber diameter of 5-8 μm. The first 70 ml were filtered in 15 min.
Results: The leukocyte count was found to be reduced from 13100 cells/μL to 16 cells/μL. No significant changes were observed in the hematocrit (49.4% vs. 50.5%) or hemoglobin concentration (17.0 gr % vs. 17.7 gr %) after filtration.
The procedure of Example 8 was used with 6 hrs.-old PRC which had been stored at 20-22� C., and was found to have a 49% hematocrit after addition of SAG-M. The rate of filtration was 152 ml/20 min.
Results: The leukocyte count dropped from 5500 cells/μL to 30 cells/μL, while the hematocrit remained at 48-48.6%.
The procedure of Example 8 was repeated with 7 days old PRC having a 62.1% hematocrit and 21.9 gr % hemoglobin concentration. 36 ml were filtered in 20 min.
Results: The Leukocyte count was reduced from 4500 cells/μL to about 2 cells/μL. The post-filtration hematocrit was 60.3-61.3% and the hemoglobin concentration was 21.0-21.1 gr %.
In this Example, the filter comprised a prefilter composed of 5 identical sheets of non-woven fiber as in Example 8, and 3 nitrocellulose membranes as in Example 7 interspersed by 3 spacer sheets of the same nonwoven fiber as in the prefilter. All other parameters were as in Example 8.
Results: A 6% improvement in the flowrate was achieved without affecting the parameters of the filtered PRC. When the filter was used in the procedure of Example 9, a 19% improvement in the flowrate was obtained.
The procedure of Example 11 was repeated in a larger diameter system having an effective filtration area of 50 cm2. 360 ml of PRC treated as in Example 7 were filtered in less than 10 min. The pre-filtration values of the PRC were: leukocyte count--8300 cells/μL; hematocrit--47.9%; hemoglobin--17.2 gr %; red blood cell count--5.99�106 cells/μL.
Results: The post-filtration values of the PRC were respectively: 3 cells/μL; 47.2-48%; 17.0-17.1 gr %; 5.90-5.93�106 cells/μL.
The configuration of Example 1 was used with a platelet concentrate containing 1.1�106 plt/μL and 800 leukocytes/μL. The filtration rate was 4 ml/2.5 min. After the nitrocellulose membrane surface was modified, e.g. by coating it with a polymer containing hydroxyl and sulfonic groups, the flowrate was increased to 4 ml/1.8 min.
Results: The leukocyte count was reduced to 200 cells/μL and the platelet count ranged between 0.34-1.04�106.
A filter unit having 43 cm2 effective filtration area was used to filter a whole blood unit, containing C.P.C. anti-coagulant, 6 hrs after donation. The filter consisted of one layer of 8 μ nitrocellulose membrane, two layers of 12 μ nitrocellulose membrane, and 22 layers of prefilter material, made of non-woven polyester fibers 5-7 μ in diameter.
Two spacer sheets of the same non-woven material were used to separate between the membranes.
The whole unit was sealed inside a plastic holder, and was sterilized by γ-irradiation.
460 ml of whole blood were filtered under 90 cm pressure-head in 13 min. The leukocyte count was reduced by flirtation from 7300/μl to 7/μl, while the R.B.C. (Red Blood Cells) count remained unchanged (4.18�106/μl vs 4.12-106/μl).
20 hrs old C.P.D.-anti-coagulated blood was used in this example.
The blood was stored at 22� C. before filtration. The filter unit was the same as in Example 14, except that three layers of 12 μ nitrocellulose membrane were used, and sterilization was made by autoclave at 131� C.
485 ml of whole blood were filtered in 10 min. Leukocytes were reduced by filtration from 6700/μl to 8/μl. RBC count remained unchanged: 4.88�106/μl vs 4.92�106/μl.

what a sunny day
Hey there.. So let's get that here started. I moved over from Europe and I guess I do what we do and love what we love .. Soccer, hiking, skiing, being liberal, walking around, relaxing and very important: food. Eating, cooking, dining and a good meal comes with a good drink. Enjoying a lovely night with red wine, a pint of beer for a fun night out or an Irish whiskey for cold rainy days. Mornings start with coffee. Going on vacations is another hobby.. work hard, play hard. Most times I do road trips. Don't know if it is the spirit of adventure or being to lazy at the first place to plan a real holiday. Anyway you never know what happens on the road and where you end up having fun. With the right people or person you find a way to have fun either way. Tried to get into Philly sports... mhh Eagles were great, Phillies were awesome, Sixers rock it right now. I think thats enough. there should be something left to discover when we meet up. Want to go out. Just txt me and we will see..
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Political interests , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Cycling, Golf, Running, Skiing, Soccer, Swimming, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
Europe. Munich, SanFran, Valencia, Ireland, the Alps.. and everywhere near the sea. next destination: the Rockies.
rock music, concerts
with the right buddies everything can be fun.

7/05/2015I would have given this a 5 star rating, but all of my filters were removed and I'm not going to pay for them all to get them back.
26/12/2013Good, but crashes a lot when applying different filters
14/12/2013Was a great app then I lost my purchased filters in an upgrade
4/12/2013Love it!!
22/11/2013Looks great
28/10/2013Still playing with the app, so far I've deleted a few apps that were similar but not as good. Brilliant.
27/10/2013Tap to add a story, gps show it in Dubai when I'm in Australia otherwise a 5 star
24/10/2013Love the fact the at the moment filter packs are free. Would be 5*'s even after my quick test but the button in the bottom right hand corner (I believe it is for changing cameras) freezes the app when pressed, it doesn't effect my phone but is a semi major function of the app which doesn't function. Either way I love the app it looks great and its only failure seems to be that one button, so aslong as the rest still functions quickly and properly I'm happy and can wait for an update which fixes that one problem (and doesn't hurt the rest of the app) Lumia 920 :D (p.s great job devs)
23/10/2013Crashes when I press the switch button on Lumia 920

Minnesota Timberwolves (2-5) at Washington Wizards (0-7), 1 p.m.
(Sports Network) - Mired in the worst start in franchise history, the Washington Wizards try again for their first win of the season this afternoon versus the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Verizon Center.
Washington dropped to 0-7 on the young season following Friday's 99-96 loss to the New York Knicks in the opener of a three-game homestand. Knicks star Carmelo Anthony poured in 37 points and nailed the go-ahead three-pointer late in the game, while the Wizards were led by Nick Young's 24 points. John Wall finished with 22 points for the Wizards, the only winless team in the NBA.
"We fought hard," said Young. "Hopefully we can continue to play this way every night."
The Wizards appeared to be headed to their first win early on with a 32-18 lead after the first 12 minutes of play. They shot 48 percent for the game, making 6-of-14 three-pointers, and got 15 points from Andray Blatche. JaVale McGee ended with 13 points and 10 rebounds in defeat.
Washington will close out the homestand Tuesday versus Toronto and is 0-3 as the host, as opposed to its 0-4 record away from the nation's capital.
Minnesota just went 2-3 on a five-game homestand and will play two straight and four of the next five games on the road.
In Friday's 98-87 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Kevin Love had another double-double with 28 points and 14 boards and rookie Derrick Williams had 12 points for the Timberwolves.
"It was just a bad night," said Timberwolves center Darko Milicic, who finished with 11 points. "We just came out flat."
Ricky Rubio had 10 points and five assists, while Michael Beasley had nine points and 12 boards. However, Beasley is expected to miss Sunday's game with a sprained foot suffered in the fourth quarter against the Cavs. Newcomer J.J. Barea has missed four of the past five contests due to a strained left hamstring and is questionable.
The Timberwolves will be playing just their second road game of the season and lost their only bout as the visitor back on Dec. 27 in a 98-95 setback at Milwaukee.
Minnesota and Washington split a pair of meetings a year ago, but the Wizards have won six of the past eight matchups between the teams. Minnesota has lost seven straight contests at the Verizon Center.

Product description
The runaway French bestseller hailed by the "New York Times" as "a survivor's guide to life in the chattering classes." If civilized people are expected to have read all important works of literature, and thousands more books are published every year, what are we supposed to do in those awkward social situations in which we're forced to talk about books we haven't read? In this delightfully witty, provocative book, a huge hit in France that has drawn attention from critics around the world, literature professor and psychoanalyst Pierre Bayard argues that it's actually more important to know a book's role in our collective library than its details. Using examples from such writers as Graham Greene, Oscar Wilde, Montaigne, and Umberto Eco, and even the movie "Groundhog Day," he describes the many varieties of "non-reading" and the horribly sticky social situations that might confront us, and then offers his advice on what to do. Practical, funny, and thought-provoking, "How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read" is in the end a love letter to books, offering a whole new perspective on how we read and absorb them. It's the book that readers everywhere will be talking about--and despite themselves, reading--this holiday season.

Review quote
Praise for "How to Talk About Books You Havent Read" "I probably shouldn't bring any of this up, but Mr. Bayard holds that one of the best reasons for reading a book is that it allows you to talk about yourself. H"ow to Talk About Books You Haven't Read" is an amusing disquisition on what is required to establish cultural literacy in a comfortable way. Lightly laced with irony, the book nonetheless raises such serious questions as: What are our true motives for reading? Is there an objective way to read a book? What do we retain from the books we've read?"--Joseph Epstein, "Wall Street Journal" "Witty and charming and often fun."--Sam Anderson, "New York"" Magazine" "I read and adored Pierre Bayard's book. It's funny, smart, and so true--a wonderful combination of slick French philosophizing and tongue-in-cheek wit, and an honest appraisal of what it means, or doesn't mean, to read."--Clare Messud, author of "The Emperor's Children ""It may well be that too many books are published, but by good fortune, not all must be read...A survivor's guide to life in the chattering classes...evidently much in need."--"New York Times" "In this work of inspired nonsense -- which nevertheless evokes our very real sense of insecurity about the gaps in our cultural knowledge -- reading is not only superfluous, it is meaningless. Our need to appear well-read is all."--Sarah Gold, "Chicago Tribune""In this hilarious and elaborate spoof, Bayard proves once again that being almost ridiculously erudite and screamingly funny are by no means mutually exclusive." --"Booklist" "Brilliant...A witty and useful piece of literary sociology, designed to bring lasting peace of mind to the scrupulous souls who grow anxious whenever the book-talk around them becomes too specific."--"London"" Review of Books" "With rare humor, Bayard liberally rethinks the social use [of literature] and the position of the reader...Read or skim "How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read".

Los Alamos Medical Center is inoculating its employees against the seasonal flu, which officially begins Oct. 1.
"We are cooperating with all entities including Los Alamos County, Los Alamos National Laboratory, the State Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control regarding seasonal and H1N1 issues," LAMC spokesperson Wend Hoffman said. "We will sponsor a public seasonal flu shot vaccine clinic at the Los Alamos Heart Council Health Fair."
HOBBS — The New Mexico State Transportation Commission Thursday unanimously approved the appointment of David Ploeger as Aviation Division Director for the State Department of Transportation.
Gov. Bill Richardson appointed Ploeger to the post to replace retiring Director Thomas Baca, who has held the position since 2004.
If the Los Alamos Hilltopper girls soccer team was at all worried about grabbing a high seed when playoff time comes around, those worries can probably be put to rest.
In an usually early start Saturday, the Hillltoppers picked up a huge road win, knocking off the St. Pius X Sartans 1-0 in a shootout.
Los Alamos converted four penalty kicks to St. Pius' two in the shootout after the teams finished regulation and overtime in a scoreless deadlock.
There was nothing pretty about Saturday's boys soccer game at Sullivan Field. That ended up including the weather when the teams got to overtime.
In its last tune-up game before the start of the District 2AAAA season Tuesday, the Los Alamos Hilltoppers took on the Albuquerque Bulldogs. After falling behind in under three minutes, Los Alamos scored two goals to retake the lead by halftime.
The Los Alamos Hilltopper football team took it on the chin Friday night in Silver City.
In its first road game of the 2009 season, Los Alamos was blasted by the Silver Fighting Colts, 53-0, one of its most one-sided losses of the decade.
Friday's loss was the second time the Hilltoppers (1-2) had been shut out this season. Silver, for its part Friday, nearly equaled its total point production from its previous three games.
Los Alamos scored only one touchdown this season, on defense, and its offense has produced just three points in three games.

This shampoo is great, especially when teamed with the conditioner. I have very thick coarse hair, and find it difficult to find shampoos to make it feel soft and silky. Even in the shower, i can feel my getting softer when I apply the shampoo (which usually requires a lot of conditioner to do so). The smell is also fantastic and i can still smell it 2 days after washing my hair. The only down side is that it's a little pricey, but it is worth every penny. I use it sparingly, before going on nights out, and I always get complements on my hair.

I agree with you. Becky Adlington isn't going to get invites to sit front row at London Fashion week like Victoria Pendleton or Jessica Ennis, just as she didn't do their glam photoshoots or nab as lucrative endorsements but she'll have various tv offers. SCD, I'm a celebrity, Dancing on Ice would all happily have her.
Punditry at swimming championships would also be an obvious option. Vicky Pendleton is doing the Track Cycling Championships on BBC2 at the moment with Jonathan Edwards and has made a very promising start. Rebecca may not have Vicky or Jess's looks but if she is engaging and informative and has the right presence on camera it won't matter.

Constantine of Baberon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Constantine, Lord of Baberon)
Constantine of Baberon (died c. 1263) was a powerful Armenian noble of the Hetoumids family. He was the son of Vassag, the maternal uncle of king Levon I of Armenia. He was the father of the king of Cilician Armenia Hetoum I, who ruled the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia from 1226 to 1270.
Constantine, also known as the Grand Baron Constantine, was married to Alix Pahlavouni[1] (a third-cousin of Leo II), with whom he fathered:
- Hetoum I of Armenia
- Sempad the Constable
- John the Bishop of Sis
- Ochine of Korykos, father of the historian Hayton of Corycus

text: I think you answered the question when you said you would hand-hold the SG. My initial response was going to depend on your subject matter. For general shooting, the RZ is faster handling and easier to load. If you were going to shoot a lot of Manhattan architecture, the view camera and tripod would allow you to keep verticals vertical. But you eliminated the tripod, so the SG is not going to be used as a true view camera for perspective purposes. So we end up with the RZ.

Fans sitting along the baseline were endangered by the Robinson-Smith scrap, something the league office won't ignore.
For proof, we refer you to the better comparison, which was less than a year ago.
In Seattle, on Jan. 11, 2006, Orlando's Keyon Dooling and Seattle's Ray Allen wound up in the first row of seats along the sideline after fighting.
Dooling was suspended for five games for throwing a punch at Allen (which did not connect) and for what the league described as "attempting to confront [Allen] in the hallway following his ejection." Allen was suspended for three games.
How soon will the NBA announce the suspensions and fines?
Neither team plays Sunday and both have games Monday night. That gives Stern's staff a day-plus to conduct an investigation before the Knicks or Nuggets play again.
The inquiry will begin with NBA security personnel interviewing numerous players from both teams and include an extensive review of raw footage of the game from a variety of angles -- footage that wasn't seen on the game broadcast or initial TV news reports -- in an attempt to determine exactly who did what.
Yet as much as the league would undoubtedly love to release its ruling on Sunday, when much of the nation is preoccupied with the NFL, Monday is more likely given how much has to be examined.
How closely will the two head coaches be looked at?
You can accuse Denver's George Karl of leaving his starters in way too long ... but you can't punish him for it. That's not an NBA crime. Not even if he did so as a way to convey his contempt for Knicks coach Isiah Thomas, as fallout from the offseason firing of Karl's close friend Larry Brown.
Thomas, by contrast, might be facing more than accusations. You can be sure the league will investigate suggestions that Collins' hard foul on Smith came via mandate from the Knicks' bench.
That sort of directive would be difficult to prove, but ESPN.com's Chris Sheridan reported Saturday night that Thomas, according to a member of the Nuggets' organization, warned Anthony not to venture near the paint not long before Collins' foul.
Which could put Thomas under the microscope as well, if similar accounts are conveyed to league personnel during Sunday's interview process.
Can players be traded while serving a suspension?
This is a pertinent question given Denver's well-chronicled pursuit of Allen Iverson.
The answer?
It appears to be, in the words of one Western Conference executive reached Saturday night, "a gray area."
It's believed that there is no language in the NBA's operations manual that specifically deals with teams' ability to trade a suspended player. The teams would likely require special permission from the league office if a player suspended for his actions Saturday night is needed by the Nuggets to complete an Iverson trade in coming days.

It was a Chinese buffet restaurant in southeast Missouri, and from the outside, no one would know there was anything illegal or wrong about it.
But from the kitchen's view, things were very different, according to Erin Heil, a criminal justice professor at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. The restaurant's workers were kept against their will, forced to live together in a house monitored with video cameras, and were not allowed to leave except to work.
The workers' "rent" was taken out of their salary, but since rent was $50 a day, their salaries never paid off their supposed debt. Thus, they could never leave, and were forced to work for nothing.
It's human trafficking, which SIUE political science professor Denise DeGarmo called "the most common form of modern-day slavery." Three members of Congress organized a summit at SIUE earlier this week to share information about the problem of human trafficking for labor and sex, and its prevalence right here in the metro-east.
U.S. Rep. John Shimkus, R-Collinsville, said there is a lot of shock, even in the halls of Congress, that it's happening in small towns and rural areas, not just large cities like Chicago or Las Vegas.
"It's a multimillion dollar industry. It can happen in your town, in your neighborhood, next door," said U.S. Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Taylorville.
U.S. Rep. Ann Wagner, R-St. Louis, said the average age of a girl drawn into sex trafficking is 14. Wagner has sponsored several bills including the SAVE Act, which adds advertising to the list of activities that can get one charged with engaging in human trafficking and/or child sex crimes.
The primary targets of the SAVE Act are websites that allow blatant ad images and "unsubtle offers" of sex for sale, Wagner said. Quite often, the girl being offered is a minor forced to service 20 or more customers a day, she said.
"It is a horror that is hiding in plain sight," she said.
In 2013, one website alone made more than $4 million per month on sex ads, Wagner said. "They are making way too much money off this conduct to stop," she said.
The SAVE Act would make those selling the ads for the girls as culpable as the ones who kidnapped or forced them, she said. Other pieces of legislation include Justice Department grants to expand efforts against child trafficking in the U.S.; "safe harbor" laws to treat minors involved in sex trafficking as victims rather than criminals; and an international "Megan's Law" that would require the Department of Homeland Security to establish an "Angel Watch" center to track sex offenders and notify other countries of their international travel.
The bills all passed the U.S. House of Representatives on May 20, but still must be approved by the Senate. This is one area where Davis and his Democratic opponent, Ann Callis of Edwardsville, agree. "I see a real opportunity for Congress to crack down on human trafficking and do a better job enforcing the law to protect victims across the world," said Callis, who is a former judge.
One of the most important steps is getting the public to realize sex trafficking is not solely about undocumented immigrants in some faraway metropolis, according to Deirdre Lhamon of The Covering House in St. Louis. It's also about teenagers lured away by pimps soliciting them on Facebook, pretending to be a Hollywood agent and telling them they can be actresses or models. He starts them with a "few photos," then a webcam, and then the clubs and the hotel rooms, she said.
Sometimes it starts closer to home: parents or stepparents renting children out for drug money, girls with older boyfriends renting them out to pay off a debt. It's not just girls, either: boys are drawn in and forced into the sex trade as well, but people tend to stereotype that females are the only victims, said Kristen Eng of Hoyleton Ministries, which has been actively fighting trafficking in Southern Illinois.
Among adults, sometimes it's a mail-order bride lured to the U.S. on a ruse and finds herself trapped with a "debt" she can never pay off.
And the children are not always runaways or kids from bad homes. "I honestly thought most of the girls had no parents who cared, but we've had two fathers who rescued their own children, one of them overseas and the other out of state," Lhamon said. Others are kids who even continue their normal lives, going to school and church, but have a secret life that is taking them over.
It's not just happening on the streets of St. Louis, but here in the metro-east, Lhamon said. "The river divides the states, but it doesn't divide the problem," she said.
Last month, the FBI partnered with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and local law enforcement for Operation Cross Country, which rescued 168 children across the nation from child sex trafficking and arrested 281 traffickers. The FBI division for southern and central Illinois recovered two children and one pimp during the operation.
While sex trafficking -- particularly of children -- gets the most attention, Heil said it is important to remember labor trafficking as well. The workers in the Missouri restaurant are just one example; undocumented immigrants are particularly vulnerable, but American citizens who fall into hard times are also caught in it.
"They're told, 'I'll pay your mortgage if you go work for my brother in Texas," Heil said. They may be promised a job, a house, any bait-and-switch from answering the wrong advertisement. They follow the work, and are ensnared in a nightmare, she said.
Rescuing them often takes more than just a police raid, particularly for victims of sex trafficking. The trafficker's hold on the victims is mental and emotional as well as physical; the mental dominance takes months or years to break, according to Lindsey Ellis with Covering House.
Derek Velazco of the FBI said between 100,000 and 300,000 children are drawn into sex trafficking each year across the country. But in one year alone, there were fewer than 6,000 prosecutions. About 42 percent of traffickers are female, far from the stereotype of the male pimp. Orders come from the Internet, rather than walking the street.
In one case, a Chicago trafficker named Datsun Sawyer had more than 16 girls in his "stable." The youngest was 12 years old and carried her teddy bear to her "dates." The girls are often branded, sometimes with a tattoo behind the ear, to indicate they are the property of their trafficker.
Sawyer was recently convicted and sentenced to 50 years in federal prison, Velazco said.
And in all the interviews he's done, he said, not one woman was the Hollywood stereotype, happy in the life, being paid and doing what she chose to do. Every one of them had been beaten and raped, he said, and would tell him, "I can't keep doing this."
The online ads are often misleading, Velazco said, using pictures of adult women to throw off the police but using key words to advertise for child sex.
It's those ads they hope the SAVE Act will stop, Davis said, by giving prosecutors more tools to fight them. In the meantime, there are projects like the proposed Eden's Glory safehouse in Bond County where survivors of human trafficking can receive shelter, counseling and a chance at a new life. In addition, the Violence Prevention Center of Southwestern Illinois plans to begin speaking in public schools this fall, warning kids about the false promises made on social media to lure them.

Built this in one day! Well, it felt like it. I did the body and wheels/tires about a year ago for a decal demo at the last TamiyaCon. Gotta admit, it goes together quite well. And the Tamiya lacquers dry really fast when you put them on lightly. I think I'll have to do another and take my time...

Hayden Panettiere has been making headlines lately in regards to her attempt to save the whales. The 'Heroes' star has become a hero in her own right as she fights to bring awareness for the Whaleman Foundation.
We caught up with Hayden at an intimate dinner she hosted at L.A. hotspot Beso which brought out Eva Longoria, Isabel Lucas, Ken Paves, Donald Faison and her boyfriend Milo Ventimiglia.
Isabel Lucas was mum about her recent accident with Shia Labeouf, but did talk about her commitment to bringing awareness towards this cause. She says, "In Alaska, the women can't breastfeed their baby because their diet is predominantly whale meat and whales have so much mercury in their bodies because of ocean pollution. They've been infected and the breast milk feeding their baby is actually highly toxic."
Hayden's man Milo confessed that he learned about the charity through Hayden. He said he thought Hayden was really brave "to put herself in a position that a lot of people wouldn't put themselves in."
In regards to the arrest warrant that was issued against her, Hayden said, "There was, the Japanese culture is such that its one of the kindest most polite most welcoming cultures you can ever run across. I think they did it to pretty much scare us from coming back."
She added, "I went and had a meeting with the foreign minister…the foreign minister said I was welcome anytime. Very kind man. Very welcoming, and he said I was his most welcome guest so there's a shocker."

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
In this course, author Josh Harris shows how to create radio and club arrangements, and a radio edit of a club mix. He utilizes four different digital audio workstations (DAWs)—Pro Tools, Ableton Live, Logic, and Reason—and shows how to build different arrangements from the ground up, by adding guitars, drums, bass, and synths. Each DAW explores different types of arranging scenarios. Plus, learn how to add ear candy and take your arrangements to another level.
What you're looking at are the exported stems from the club mix that was created in Ableton Live. I decided to export the stems and create the radio edit of the club arrangement and logic because over the years I've had projects come across my desk where an artist needs to club mix edited for radio and they feel confident in their own abilities to do it, so they reach out for outside help. In other words, don't feel that you have to be in any specific DAW to create a radio edit from stems that were created in a club mix in another program.
As long as you have all the files starting at the same point and you are able to line them up in your DAW of choice, then you simply go in and edit, as we are about to do with this song. I'll double-check and make sure that everything is lined up in measure 1, and right away I realize that this hype main sound is 1 bar off, so I need to adjust that. And I'll zoom in on the Lead Vocal track so that I can see where verse 1 starts: measure 33. I'll place the playhead there, shrink the screen, and I will insert an edit point using my Scissors tool.
What I am doing is identifying where the song starts, and I'll do the same at the end here where the vocal ends: 161. Shrink the screen, highlight, and there we go. So this is our outro from the club mix and this is our intro from the club mix. And I like to take advantage of color coding things, so I will do that here.
As you can see, the blue is the body of the song, and that's essentially what we are going to be working with for our radio arrangement. If I place the playhead here at measure 33 and I look down at the transport, I can see that the song is already 1 minute in, and as a place the playhead over here at 161 and I see that that time is 4 minutes and 55 seconds, I am working within almost a four-minute window for a radio edit. It's a little bit on the long side, but remember that a radio edit of a club mix takes on a little bit of a different feel than just a radio mix.
So next I'll mute these regions on the intro and outro, and I simply play the song, starting at measure 33. Now I know this edit is not clean, and I'll need to create some sort of an intro or a lead-in before verse 1 starts, but that's okay. I'll come back to that in a minute. The point of this movie is to identify where the intro and outro start and end and look at the duration of time that you're able to trim off by muting them and taking a look at the body of the song. Now, I'm leaving the body of the song at measure 33 and I'm not moving it yet, because in the event that I need to go back to any of these regions or do any additional editing to clean up my edit points, I want to be able to take advantage of the full stem of the file.
In other words, if I get rid of this and I shove all of this over to the left, I am merely going to have to move all that over to the right to create my intro. As you'll see in subsequent movies, as we begin to dial in the final arrangement for the radio edit, I will move the body of the song over to the left and closer to the start point of the session, so that we can get a more accurate handle on how long the radio edit is in length. But for now, let's leave all of these files as they sat in the full, longer club arrangement.

29 year old woman | Sonoma, CA, USA | Seeking men 29-37 within 20 miles
I'm looking for my person.
I am a friendly and kind person. I have a good sense of humor and enjoy chatting with just about anyone. I care deeply about my family and friends. I value humanity and strive to do my part to be a better person. I recently finished a certification program in holistic nutrition. I am passionate about helping people achieve their optimal health and wellness goals. I educate people regarding how to eat healthful foods that will make them feel good. I love to eat healthy food and be active, but also enjoy indulging at times. I'm quite a foodie at heart and growing up in the wine country, I have developed an appreciation for tasty wines. A perfect day for me would be doing something fun in nature and then cooking a nice meal. I love to stay in and be cozy but equally enjoy a night out! I'm always up for a night in SF or a weekend trip to the coast. Road trips are a favorite, as well as further explorations to Europe (or wherever). I feel happiest when I'm in the sunshine! I would like to meet someone with whom I can laugh and enjoy life. I admire people who work hard and would like to meet someone with a strong work ethic. I like being really busy and accomplishing a lot! I have a better time relaxing after I've crossed a few things off my to-do list. I would love to find someone to work and play hard with, someone who will be my best friend. An ideal partner would be a guy that inspires me and who wants to keep learning things together. I believe a healthy relationship is one that is a balance between friendship and romance.

I love to cook for other people, drink wine, and hang out with my friends. I enjoy biking and hiking, most outdoor activities, and I love to swim or go to the beach in the summer.
I think I'm reading 3 different books right now. One about Buddhism, one about nutrition, and a Paleo cookbook (I read cookbooks in bed like they're novels).
