Let's keep it going! There is no off-season when it comes to UK basketball. :D
A good way to get this thread started:
Who is the "impending commitment"?
So tough to say... you would think either Uchebo or Lacey??? Perhaps DeAndre Daniels?
Can't see Daniels since he has scratched Kentucky off the list. Lacey is supposedly going to visit Kansas and there is concern with grades.
I don't know much about Uchebo but he would be a post presence we need.
I think it's somebody for 2012 possibly. Hoping for Shabazz Muhammad.
Jones and Liggins will be back IMO. Knight's gonzo.
I'd kill for Jones and Liggins to come back. If all 3 decided to it'd be incredible. It's just a little depressing because of the fact that other schools have been able to return their studs.
My statement earlier about the OSU one and dones is that they were required to attend class because their 2nd quarter grades were due right as the tournament was starting. If they were not attending class they would have been ruled ineligible just prior to the NCAA tournament.Quote:
WMR Buckeye fans (still angry about the Tournament obviously) pointing fingers about one and dones is rich indeed. Shall we start counting the One and Dones from OSU over the past several seasons? Where were all the Buckeye fans whining about One and Dones when they were playing for the National Championship?
As for OSU's one and dones I don't like it either. The only player that truly was ready to turn pro after his freshman season was Oden. You can teach that kind of size as well as defensive knowledge. Guys like Connely, Cook, Mullins, Kufos all could have benefited from staying.
One and dones along and their class attendance is an issue in college basketball today. If someone enters the draft they don't really have the time the go through all the pre-draft combines, interviews, camps, etc. You would be hard pressed to find any underclassmen that is able to attend class with all that going on.
Bob Knight apologizes to Kentucky.
Bob, apology not accepted. We know you still loathe Kentucky and don't worry the feelings are reciprocated fully.
Saturday, March 22 1975 - http://bigbluehistory.net/bb/Statist...22Indiana.html
I still think Knight's instructional golf videos are the best! :D
The Kentucky Combine was in Lexington the past two days, and from the looks of things:
Brandon Knight is gone. He was getting confrimation from teams to stay in the draft.
Terrence Jones is borderline. I think it comes down to similar to what happened last year with UW-UK. Now its UK-NCAA and to be fair, he can do a lot by coming back and improving his draft stock. He could be 9-12 this year or possibly a top 3 next if he comes back.
Liggins will probably be back. I don't think he can get any team to guarantee to take him late in the first round.
On a side note, I did hear something about other teams wanting to send their players to the Kentucky Combine and Cal said no. I doubt Louisville would have with Terrence Jennings but I would feel bad if Kenneth Faried from Morehead State was turned away by Cal. I would have opened it up to any Kentucky school but Louisville, mainly because Pitino has the resources to do it himself.
I think Terrence Jones could be CRAZY good next year.
Right now he is projected to go toward the end of the lottery. By coming back and putting together a consistent season and becoming a top option for this team, he could be a top 5 pick next year. He showed great potential early in the season to do just that, but once SEC play rolled around, he hit a wall.
If he comes back and doesn't improve (doubtful), then he is in the mix with a whole slew of forwards coming out. His stock could really take a hit, especially if he is going up against Anthony Davis, Jared Sullinger, and Perry Jones.
And the labor situation could be added to that mix as well.

The Samsung Gravity 3's full QWERTY keyboard and messaging features are enough to satisfy most heavy communicators, with other advanced features icing the cake. At $50 with a two-year service agreement, the Gravity is a good midlevel option for those who aren't ready to jump into the smartphone arena.
But there's a catch: You have to commit to a new smartphone as part of the new upgrade program. Also, only a select number of flagship phones are available for an upgrade.
A merger between the nation's fourth-largest wireless carrier and second-largest satellite-TV provider is intriguing. Here's why.
The carrier's new "Never Settle" promotion will give Verizon customers a free phone to play with for 14 days and then pay Verizon's early termination fee for customers who switch over permanently.
T-Mobile's customer base surpassed the 50 million mark as aggressive promotions once again stoked growth. Its profit was helped by a gain from a spectrum licensing deal.
CNET's Marguerite Reardon takes a look at T-Mobile's new plan to entice wireless customers to jump ship from their existing carriers.
The carrier is also guaranteeing that prices won't increase for customers on existing plans -- even if you're on a promotional program.
The prepaid carrier gives customers unlimited access to high-speed data, but with a few caveats.
The carrier serves up two options for customers looking to save on international phone calls to dozens of countries.
The wireless carrier is expanding its existing Wi-Fi calling and texting service with promises of more coverage in the home and in the air.

I'm feeling really overwhelmed and trying to figure out where to start. DS's grades have been steadily slipping this year and finally did the testing for ADHD or possible learning disability. I was relieved to learn he doesn't have a LD, but the psychologist does believe he has ADHD(predominantly inattentive). I don't know much about it and would like some direction. Can anyone recommend books on the subject? We're going to request a 504 plan for the classroom. The psychologist will submit a list of recommendations. Anyone been through this process and can give me some idea of how it works? It was also recommended that we consider medication for the ADHD. I know nothing about that either. We're going to make an appt. with his pedi to discuss it. It doesn't help that DH is in complete denial. He thinks everything is fine. Where do I start?
DS just diagnosed with ADHD
Comments (2)
Well first, take a deep breath. It is not a death sentence and this diagnosis can actually be the first step to helping him with his grades and consequently, with his self-esteem and sense of self-worth as well.
A couple of good books- The Inattentive Child and a couple of others that I will check for you and link a bit later.
The main thing is to determine his severity- do you see him being unable to pay attention for more than 5 minutes at a time, 3 minutes, 2 minutes? Will he hear something and not acknowledge it but be hyperaware and attentive to something he is interested in? Does he forget homework assignments, tasks to do? How often? Can it be managed with chore charts and constant reminders or is it creating a significant issue for him at school and home? Do he say that he is the "bad boy"in the class or the one always in trouble? Does that lead to a sense of failure and depression?
For me, I have determined the need for meds based on my son's ability to feel good about himself. If he doesn't feel like he is "normal"or like he can do everything the other kids can do, meds might be the answer. But it isn't the ONLY answer. Meds will treat the hyperactivity- the leg shaking or constant movement but it won't treat behavior. So if the behavior is still there, more work will be needed to address that.
Some things to keep in mind- ADHD kids tend to not do some things well, like tell time for instance. That isn't him being defiant, it is just him not knowing the damn time frame and what it means. There is also not a good idea of cause-effect. Short term memory isn't usually a strong point so that means he needs constant reminders (without frustration) on daily tasks and taking those tasks and breaking them up. Don't give him a list of things and expect him to really understand it, give him one at a time, check, give him another one, check and so on.
That goes for homework too. He does 10 questions or a section of reading, have him run around the table or do 30 jumping jacks. Next section, have him take the dog out to throw the ball for 15 minutes. It helps to relive some stress and some of the energy. But it doesn't cure it, or make it suddenly better, you are now responsible for teaching him coping mechanisms. Those coping mechanisms will take a long time to shift from short term memory to long term memory, but once it does- it will stick.
A lot of times, kids with ADHD won't pay attention unless they are interested in a subject or teacher. So, do your homework about the next years teacher, have your child meet them all and spend some time with them prior to the next year. It will help with routine changes and any anxiety that might happen with change. Oh yeah- Routine (I have ADD too), routine is key! It helps so much to have a strict routine and stick to it. That is so important for them to know what is going to happen next. Without out that and because they don't really get time, prepping them for what happens next helps them anticipate the change. It cuts down on the "crazy" as I call it.
So, I hope that helps! I am a teacher who teachs kids with some type of ADD/ADHD, learning disability, emotional issues, behavioral issues, and the like. I also have ADD, my DH has ADHD and my 6 and a half year old son has a pretty severe case of ADHD, diagnosed at 3.5 and meds at 4. He takes Vyvanse- I have found that one to be the best for him but before this he was on Adderall 5 mg (2 pills 2x a day). It didn't like the kick back from the adderall so we switched to 40mg of Vyvanse with 1 5 mg of Adderall at 3pm to take him through the evening. If doctors suggest taking him off during the weekend, I would advise against it. Those meds are generally made to stay and your body does get used to needing them so taking them off for 2 out of 7 days keeps them on a constant sense of withdrawl.
Good luck- it isn't a horrible thing and can, in fact, be quite useful for some people in their professions! My DH for instance and manage hundreds of units in a multi-family construction site because of his ability to multi-task!

Picture: Orlando Bloom drove his car to the back entrance of M Cafe in West Hollywood to pick up his wife Los Angeles, California - 03.06.11
Orlando Bloom's hopes of romance during a trip to Thailand were dashed when his roommate Billy Boyd was struck down with food poisoning.
The British actor and his fellow Lord of the Rings stars Boyd and Dominic Monaghan were on a break in the Far East when Boyd fell ill after eating raw shrimp.
But it was Bloom who suffered the most from the incident - his date deserted him when she realised he was sharing a room with his sickly pal.
Monaghan told fans at the Comic-Con event in California, "We decided to rent a kayak for the day and go paddling over to this island with a restaurant on it. There's this dish which is raw shrimp in chilli oil, super hot, so we order it.
"(Boyd) got the s**ts as soon as we got back on the boat. He ran to his room when we returned to the hotel. Billy puts the key in the door, runs into the toilet and is like: 'Arghh, oohhh, eurgghhh.' Poor Orlando's date left pretty quickly after that."
Bloom is now married to supermodel Miranda Kerr.

China's Chengdu J-20 stealth fighter is believed to have made its second test flight, with new images showing the aircraft being prepared for the sortie on 17 April.
Performed from Chengdu airfield in Sichuan province just over three months after the J-20's surprise flight debut on 11 January, the latest milestone will bring fresh attention on Beijing's drive to field a fifth-generation counterpart to designs including the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor.
In these images, aircraft 2001 is shown undergoing pre-flight checks involving a team of engineers from state-owned AVIC.
The J-20's emergence has prompted several other nations to step up their air force modernisation activities. Japan earlier this month issued a request for proposals in a contest to replace its oldest McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantoms, despite having to recover from the effects of a devastating earthquake and tsunami. Candidates for its F-X fighter requirement include the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, Eurofighter Typhoon and the Lockheed F-35.
Taiwan also has stepped up its efforts to get the US government to approve its long-stalled request for an additional batch of 66 Lockheed F-16C/D fighters.

Creating a facet_wrap plot with ggplot2 with different annotations in each plot
Add text to a faceted plot in ggplot2 with dates on X axis
Occasionally when faceting data in ggplot, I think it would be nice to annotate each facet with the number of observations that fell into each facet. This is particularly important when faceting may result in relatively few observations per facet.
What would be the best / simplest way to add an "n=X" to each facet of this plot?
mms <- data.frame(deliciousness = rnorm(100),

Keep denying it all you want but it is coming for you or your children. It is for real.
Neil Bush, son of the then vice president of the United States, was scheduled to have dinner on March 31, 1981, with Scott Hinckley, brother of John Hinckley, the day after a bullet came within an inch of making Neil Bush's father the new president of the United States.
Even though John Chancellor had let slip out this most remarkable assassination coincidence shortly after John Hinckley tried to kill President Reagan, it was censored by NBC News and the other organs of the national news media during the subsequent 10 years. And even in the several months of extensive coverage of Neil Bush's part in the massive savings and loan fraud, no mention was made of his role in the continuing coverup of the most significant story in the 1980s. Back in 1981, I thought the dinner engagement was so extraordinary that I looked everywhere for it in the days following Chancellor's raised-eyebrow report in the hours after the shooting. One magazine laughed at it and a few smaller papers carried a story by United Press International, but the Associated Press and the other major news outlets, in response to my numerous protests, made clear to me that they had no intention of letting the American people learn of Neil Bush's connection to the Hinckleys or, for that matter, the many other astonishing unanswered questions in the wake of the Bush-Hinckley coverup.
First of all, it is called Agenda 21 because it was meant to happen in the 21st century. That gave them enough time to slowly implement it. Here is what's happening now: Agenda 21 Targets Family Farms
This is an article with proof of it happening and it was written in 1998, while we were all sleeping. Agenda 21 implementation
I don't know where you live in New Hampshire, but here is a site promoting a meeting about it on Aug. 27th. It says New Hampsire in the heading. Agenda 21 and the ICLEI-An Expose - Ron Paul Headquarters New Hampshire (Concord, NH) - Meetup
Here is a website called Agenda 21 Now. It is a site for students aged 14+ to try to brainwash them while they are young. Agenda 21 NOW! - The 24h Internet-Conference
Here is a site showing what has been done in Florida. THE HORRORS OF AGENDA 21 AND ICLEI IN FLORIDA
I know you probably won't believe these sites but just don't say you weren't warned. And you should attend the meeting if it's near you. I am sure they can tell you much more than me.
So I skimmed through the articles and sites and what I see is after 20 years of infilitrating the government and installing a new world order the most heinous thing that I saw was a proposal for additional restrictions on who could drive tractors.
If this is the way they are going to take over my life and obsolete the constitution they better pick up the pace.
Jim, its not how these things effect you today. Its about the erosion of our constitutional rights piece by piece. Those pieces together can spell the end of our freedom. Maybe not in our lifetime, but our children's freedom is in jeopardy. The first hint is when you start hearing about us moving to an Amero to replace the dollar. This would be currency shared with Canada and Mexico.
During a time of war, you don't let your enemy strategically assemble an army around you just because they are not being hostile toward you. Any deviation of our constitutional freedom is a hostile act in my opinion.
Do you live close enough to the meeting in NH? Maybe you could enlighten us if you go to it.
Not that I would go,b ut the meeting is ion Northern Maine, just about as far away from where I live in New England as you can get.
I guess I respect how strongly you all feel about this, but to think that all this is about to happen, to me, is delusional. Besides some provisions of the Patriot Act, I don't see how any of my constitiutional rights have been degraded.
I am really looking for stuff that has happen. Not proposals that some group would like to see happen. If there is a serious proposal for the Amero, then maybe I will start to pay attention.

Genetics of Colorectal Cancer (PDQ®): Genetics - Health Professional Information [NCI] - Psychosocial Issues in Hereditary Colon Cancer Syndromes
Table 14. Summary of Studies Evaluating Interest in or Intention to Have Genetic Counseling and Testing for Lynch Syndrome (LS)a continued...
Studies conducted before the clinical availability of APC testing showed that most parents favored testing for FAP in early childhood.[18] In one study, 94% of FAP-affected adults indicated that children should be tested for FAP at birth, though 79% stated that this condition should not be discussed with children until at least age 10 years.[19] The majority of respondents wished to withhold information about FAP risk from their child for nearly a decade, suggesting that research is needed regarding the timing of disclosure of cancer genetic risk information to children.
In a survey conducted in the Netherlands of members of families with FAP, one-third (34%) believed that it was most suitable to offer APC gene testing of children prior to age 12 years, whereas 38% preferred to offer testing to children between the ages of 12 and 16 years, when children would be better able to understand the DNA testing process. Only 4% felt that children should not undergo DNA testing at all.[20]
Results of qualitative interview data from 28 U.S. parents diagnosed with FAP showed that 61% favored genetic testing of APC mutations in their at-risk children (aged 10–17 years); 71% believed that their children should receive their test results. The primary reasons why parents chose to test their children included early detection and management, reduction in parental anxiety and uncertainty, and help with decision making regarding surveillance. Reasons provided for not testing focused on discrimination concerns and cost.[21]
Interest in the use of assisted reproductive technology (ART)
The possibility of transmitting a mutation to a child may pose a concern to families affected by hereditary CRC syndromes to the extent that some carriers may avoid childbearing. These concerns also may prompt individuals to consider using prenatal diagnosis (PND) methods to help reduce the risk of transmission. PND is an encompassing term used to refer to any medical procedure conducted to assess the presence of a genetic disorder in a fetus. Methods include amniocentesis and chorionic villous sampling .[22,23] Both procedures carry a small risk of miscarriage.[22,24] Moreover, discovering the fetus is a carrier of a cancer susceptibility mutation may impose a difficult decision for couples regarding pregnancy continuation or termination and may require additional professional consultation and support.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The massive scar along Desmond Bishop's right leg is a daily reminder to the Packers' inside linebacker that he's never going to be the same physically. Well, not the physical appearance near the area of his surgically repaired hamstring, anyway. It's not that Bishop won't be able to regain the level of play that led him to be Green Bay's leading tackler last season. In fact, doctors have told the 28-year-old that he could come back even stronger. But the season-ending injury Bishop suffered in the team's first preseason game on Aug. 9 has left him with a permanent memento on his body from the play that put a one-year halt on his burgeoning career. "I look at my scar, and I look at the way my knee is, I'm just different," Bishop said Monday at his locker. "Hopefully it can be at least back to where it was before, if not better." Just eight days after Bishop completely tore his hamstring, he was in surgery. And he remembers that date well: Aug. 17. When asked, Bish...

Friday 3 October
Far from the predicted support group for suffering newspaper and magazine industry types, the recent Distripress conference showed signs of a society still enamoured with paper and ink. Monocle's David Plaisant reports.
As some of you may have heard, our local newsagent here in London's Marylebone closed down last week. The passing of Green's has resulted in something of a campaign led by our editor in chief with The Stack: our print…

24K gold BlackBerry Q10 is what oil barons use to send email
Sad that it's been a while since Vertu put out a phone? Well, you can try a 24K gold BlackBerry Q10 instead. It comes from Goldgenie, which has a history of turning BlackBerrys into gold (Apple products too).
Anyway, the BlackBerry Q10 has a 24K gold-plated bezel and a 24K gold panel below the QWERTY keyboard. All other specs of the phone remain the same, except that the packaging has been upgraded to a snazzy wooden box. And it's heavier, but Goldgenie gives no concrete numbers about that. Read more »

OU coach Bob Stoops addresses Sam Bradford injury, Missouri during weekly Big 12 teleconference
Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said on the weekly Big 12 teleconference that torn ligaments in quarterback Sam Bradford's thumb on his non-throwing hand will not prevent him from playing in the conference title game.
One reporter asked if it could make it tougher for Bradford Saturday night at Arrowhead Stadium. "I don't know if it will be tougher," Stoops said. "It was awful painful (Saturday). Having it happen on the third series of the game you don't have a plan for it. You're only able to tape it and try to support it. We'll have a better support structure around his thumb now... "Hopefully it won't bother him. It sure bothered him the other night. You don't see a guy drop a snap in two years and then you see him drop two trying to take the snap from center. With his left hand it wasn't able to work it. But we'll be able to prepare for that through the week and he should be able to take the snap." Bradford played through the injury to lead the Sooners on nine consecutive scoring drives in a 61-41 win over Oklahoma State which was pivotal in OU winning the BCS tie-breaker in the computers. "The guy is incredible," Stoops said. "He just has poise. Not only those drives but look at his third-down throws when he had to have them, just putting the ball on the money. Several of them with people in his face. Diving for the end zone. The guy has all the courage in the world and toughness. The other night he showed it. He's as tough as they come." The Sooners face Missouri Saturday night for the Big 12 title. OU swept Missouri in two games last season. Since the Tigers return quarterback Chase Daniel, wide receiver Jeremy Maclin and tight end Chase Coffman is it similar to the offense the Sooners faced last season or Texas Tech? "The fact they're spread I guess there are similarities that way in some screens, but they're a different offense than Tech," Stoops said.

- Detailed Description

If you like the wonderful flavor of apples, you will love this apple extract. It tastes like apple cider when used in your favorite cake or cookie recipe. Add it to your apple pies and tarts to boost the apple flavor. It is also wonderful in frostings, ice cream as well as beer or wine. When you use it for baking we recommend a teaspoon for every three cups of cake or cookie mix. Two or three ounces are sufficient to flavor five gallons of ice cream. This apple extract is both sugar and gluten-free. Ingredients: Propylene glycol, water and natural apple flavor. Gluten-free and Certified Kosher.

I used 1 tsp of this in the Fresh Apple Bundt Cake recipe found on this website. The cake was very moist and had a delicious apple flavor. Loved it so much I made three of them in one week......for sharing, of course!

ULM coach Keith Richard instructs his team during a time out. The Warhawks return home to face South Alabama Thursday night in a game that will have tournament implications on the line.
- Filed Under
Finally, the ULM men's basketball team has something to play for as the season begins to wind down.
It may not be a Sun Belt title or even a finish in the top half of the standings, but the Warhawks have a chance to make the conference tournament in the first year where only the Top 8 of 10 teams will get into the postseason.
That's saying a lot, though, considering ULM missed the tournament two years ago because of APR sanctions and every other year finished last in the Sun Belt standings. ...

N50 mixer
I have a couple of these that I am looking to sell if anybody is interested. Both are in excellent working order w/SS bowls but no mixing hooks or paddle. Anybody interested?
I have a couple of these that I am looking to sell if anybody is interested. Both are in excellent working order w/SS bowls but no mixing hooks or paddle. Anybody interested?
Anyone have experience with this mixer? I am looking for a new one.
BakeMax (BMPM007) - 7 qt Planetary Mixer
I sent for one of these proofers after I manage to produce an underproofed, underbaked excuse of a sourdough loaf. So far, I'm very impressed indeed.
Has anyone used their cane banneton in the proofer?
In looking at specs, here's what I find in terms of capacity:
Haussler Alpha - 13 lbs
Ankarsrum - 10.5 lbs
Bosch Universal Plus - 15 lbs
The Bosch is the least expensive and has the greatest capacity according to the specs. The Haussler has a larger bowl. It seems everyone loves the Ankarsrum. All three mix differently. Two are multi-purpose while one is mostly just for dough. Is there enough difference in the performance of these three to justify one over the other?
My Bosch drained a smoothie down the tower. This mixer is not under warrently since I bought it via Craigslist. Should I just consider it trashed? I'm not sure how to clean out the electric motor if it is gummed up.
First I wore out a KA 6qt mixer. Now I've about killed a Bosch Universal Plus. Believe it or not, it was not heavy dough that did it in this time. It was a smoothie. I should have learned long ago that multi-purpose machines do plenty but most of it poorly.
After adding the blender attachment and enjoying several smoothies, the blender decided to let one drain into the machine. Nice. Now the BUP sounds like a saw. I do not know if it can be salvaged.
I recently saw a suggestion for two stones in an oven. One above and one below the bread. It also mentioned the possibility of baking on both at the same time. Has anyone here tried such an arrangement?
Help! I just had to sell my current Electrolux mixer because we are moving overseas and it was a 110v model, which I loved.
Does anyone have a 220v Electrolux mixer with attachments you want to sell?
We need have it before mid August so that it can be included with our shipment overseas.
Thank you!
Hi everyone,

North Palm Beach County news briefs: April 11
Bicycle proliferation
Turning the tide on 259 pedestrian fatalities
With the number of bicyclists and runners/walkers throughout the Jupiter area, residents are being asked to become more aware of a new program initiated by the Florida Department of Transportation called "Alert Today, Alive Tomorrow." The program as met with "a good response from the public" as it has move northward from Miami-Dade and Broward counties, according to FDOT's Robyn Chiarelli. And with the proliferation of bicycles in Jupiter and North County, she is hoping for an enthusiastic response from Jupiter-Tequesta residents as well. The new pedestrian and bicyclist awareness program is designed to increase safety and decrease crashes by using social media, billboards, bus displays and public service announcements. The rules tell pedestrians to always use the crosswalk and to look before crossing the street, and for motorists and bicyclists, to stop before turning right on red and to yield to pedestrians. Broward and Palm Beach counties, with the highest populations, also had the highest numbers of pedestrian and bicycle crashes and fatalities in the five counties in FDOT's District 4. In this district, there were 3,676 pedestrian crashes and a total of 2,943 bicycle crashes between 2008 and 2010. These crashes resulted in 259 pedestrian fatalities and 59 bicyclist fatalities for this time period.
Education MILESTONE
Batt Learning Center heralds 25 years
Batt Learning Center in Juno Beach, founded by Judie Batt-Yarnell and her late husband, Roy, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, and plans to have some special events to recognize the event, according to Batt-Yarnell. The Batt Learning Center originally assisted students who requested enrichment of remediation at all levels and in all subject areas. This after-school assistance is still provided. All the teachers are certified, with accelerated degrees, with many of them with PhD degrees. The Batt Schools draw student from as far north as Vero Beach and as far south as Delray Beach, with many students coming from northern Palm Beach County. Juno Beach Prep, which is part of Batt Educational Services, offers students one-on-one education by different teachers for different subjects. Each student has his/her own office at the school. "Some of our curriculum is highly accelerated and some is remedial," Judie said. "We have 4-year-old children through college students. We offer very elaborate electives that are geared to the students' passions. I can't wait to get to work every morning," she said. "Best of all, my son Jordy, is pursuing a dual doctorate degree on counseling psychology and school psychology at Florida State University. When he graduates in 2016, Jordy will join his mom at the school that bears her name.
"Jupiter U" still open
Tours to educate residents about the Town of Jupiter are still available as part of the Jupiter U program, according to the town officials. Among the classes that still have room are: a tour of the Loxahatchee River District Wastewater Treatment Plant on April 16; a tour of the Jupiter Police Department on April 23; a tour of the Jupiter Water Treatment Plant on April 25; a tour of Max Planck Florida Institute on April 30, and a tour of the Waste Management facility, with that date to be announced. The Jupiter History Tour is full, but town folks say that if the waiting list warrants it, they will add another tour to accommodate those who want to participate. For information, visit www.jupiter.fl.us.
Harbourside now more than a dream
The big machinery is looming above the site of what will be Harbourside, long a dream of the Town of Jupiter and Allied Capital Corp. as part of Riverwalk. The construction is under way on the mixed use zoned property at the northwest corner of Indiantown Road and U.S. 1. Eventually it will have restaurants, a hotel, shops, an outdoor event area along the Intracoastal Waterway and a parking garage, which will help relieve the parking situation when the town hosts activities at the Events Plaza under the Indiantown Road Bridge. Also, it will provide parking for hundreds of people expected to come to Harbourside each day.

As of this writing, I have several copies that I'd be willing to sell to readers in the United States, so if you or someone you love speaks Latvian and wants to read this book, drop me a line (via my contact page). Once they're gone I probably won't have any more, so if you want it, don't delay.

STOCKHOLM — The Roman Catholic church has turned down a request from Swedish former tennis ace Bjorn Borg and Italian pop singer Loredana Berte to marry in Milan next month, a spokesman said today.
Borg adviser Ingmar Alverdal told Sweden's national news agency TT that he does not know why the church wedding planned for Feb. 26 has been stopped.
"Bjorn and Loredana are deeply shocked and don't know what to do next," he said.
A Catholic church spokesman said: "They have both been married before and, according to our belief, marriage is sacred. Of course you can have a marriage annulled, but it takes time."
Borg, 32, who retired from professional tennis in 1983 after winning five consecutive Wimbledon titles, revealed his plans to marry the 38-year-old singer earlier this month.

Article: Gene Signatures Derived from a c-MET-Driven Liver Cancer Mouse Model Predict Survival of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Biomarkers derived from gene expression profiling data may have a high false-positive rate and must be rigorously validated using independent clinical data sets, which are not always available. Although animal model systems could provide alternative data sets to formulate hypotheses and limit the number of signatures to be tested in clinical samples, the predictive power of such an approach is not yet proven. The present study aims to analyze the molecular signatures of liver cancer in a c-MET-transgenic mouse model and investigate its prognostic relevance to human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Tissue samples were obtained from tumor (TU), adjacent non-tumor (AN) and distant normal (DN) liver in Tet-operator regulated (TRE) human c-MET transgenic mice (n = 21) as well as from a Chinese cohort of 272 HBV- and 9 HCV-associated HCC patients. Whole genome microarray expression profiling was conducted in Affymetrix gene expression chips, and prognostic significances of gene expression signatures were evaluated across the two species. Our data revealed parallels between mouse and human liver tumors, including down-regulation of metabolic pathways and up-regulation of cell cycle processes. The mouse tumors were most similar to a subset of patient samples characterized by activation of the Wnt pathway, but distinctive in the p53 pathway signals. Of potential clinical utility, we identified a set of genes that were down regulated in both mouse tumors and human HCC having significant predictive power on overall and disease-free survival, which were highly enriched for metabolic functions. In conclusions, this study provides evidence that a disease model can serve as a possible platform for generating hypotheses to be tested in human tissues and highlights an efficient method for generating biomarker signatures before extensive clinical trials have been initiated.PLoS ONE 09/2011; 6(9):e24582.

Article: DLK1-DIO3 genomic imprinted microRNA cluster at 14q32.2 defines a stemlike subtype of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with poor survival.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous and highly aggressive malignancy, for which there are no effective cures. Identification of a malignant stemlike subtype of HCC may offer patients with a dismal prognosis a potential targeted therapy using c-MET and Wnt pathway inhibitors. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) show promise as diagnostic and prognostic tools for cancer detection and stratification. Using a TRE-c-Met-driven transgenic HCC mouse model, we identified a cluster of 23 miRNAs that is encoded within the Dlk1-Gtl2 imprinted region on chromosome 12qF1 overexpressed in all of the isolated liver tumors. Interestingly, this region is conserved among mammalian species and maps to the human DLK1-DIO3 region on chromosome 14q32.2. We thus examined the expression of the DLK1-DIO3 miRNA cluster in a cohort of 97 hepatitis B virus-associated HCC patients and identified a subgroup (n = 18) of patients showing strong coordinate overexpression of miRNAs in this cluster but not in other cancer types (breast, lung, kidney, stomach, and colon) that were tested. Expression levels of imprinted gene transcripts from neighboring loci in this 14q32.2 region and from a subset of other imprinted sites were concomitantly elevated in human HCC. Interestingly, overexpression of the DLK1-DIO3 miRNA cluster was positively correlated with HCC stem cell markers (CD133, CD90, EpCAM, Nestin) and associated with a high level of serum α-fetoprotein, a conventional biomarker for liver cancer, and poor survival rate in HCC patients. In conclusion, our findings suggest that coordinate up-regulation of the DLK1-DIO3 miRNA cluster at 14q32.2 may define a novel molecular (stem cell-like) subtype of HCC associated with poor prognosis.Journal of Biological Chemistry 07/2011; 286(35):30706-13.

Article: Predictive genes in adjacent normal tissue are preferentially altered by sCNV during tumorigenesis in liver cancer and may rate limiting.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) genes predictive of survival have been found in both adjacent normal (AN) and tumor (TU) tissues. The relationships between these two sets of predictive genes and the general process of tumorigenesis and disease progression remains unclear. Here we have investigated HCC tumorigenesis by comparing gene expression, DNA copy number variation and survival using ∼250 AN and TU samples representing, respectively, the pre-cancer state, and the result of tumorigenesis. Genes that participate in tumorigenesis were defined using a gene-gene correlation meta-analysis procedure that compared AN versus TU tissues. Genes predictive of survival in AN (AN-survival genes) were found to be enriched in the differential gene-gene correlation gene set indicating that they directly participate in the process of tumorigenesis. Additionally the AN-survival genes were mostly not predictive after tumorigenesis in TU tissue and this transition was associated with and could largely be explained by the effect of somatic DNA copy number variation (sCNV) in cis and in trans. The data was consistent with the variance of AN-survival genes being rate-limiting steps in tumorigenesis and this was confirmed using a treatment that promotes HCC tumorigenesis that selectively altered AN-survival genes and genes differentially correlated between AN and TU. This suggests that the process of tumor evolution involves rate-limiting steps related to the background from which the tumor evolved where these were frequently predictive of clinical outcome. Additionally treatments that alter the likelihood of tumorigenesis occurring may act by altering AN-survival genes, suggesting that the process can be manipulated. Further sCNV explains a substantial fraction of tumor specific expression and may therefore be a causal driver of tumor evolution in HCC and perhaps many solid tumor types.PLoS ONE 01/2011; 6(7):e20090.

ABSTRACT: Studies of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) reveal that these cell lines can be derived from differing stages of embryonic development. We analyzed common changes in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) and mRNAs in 9 different human ESC (hESC) lines during early commitment and further examined the expression of key ESCenriched miRNAs in earlier developmental states in several species. We show that several previously defined hESC-enriched miRNA groups (the miR-302, -17, and -515 families, and the miR-371-373 cluster) and several other hESC-enriched miRNAs are down-regulated rapidly in response to differentiation. We further found that mRNAs up-regulated upon differentiation are enriched in potential target sites for these hESC-enriched miRNAs. Interestingly, we also observed that the expression of ESC-enriched miRNAs bearing identical seed sequences changed dynamically while the cells transitioned through early embryonic states. In human and monkey ESCs, as well as human-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), the miR-371-373 cluster was consistently up-regulated, while the miR-302 family was mildly down-regulated when the cells were chemically treated to regress to an earlier developmental state. Similarly, miR-302b, but not mmu-miR-295, was expressed at higher levels in murine epiblast stem cells (mEpiSC) as compared with an earlier developmental state, mouse ESCs. These results raise the possibility that the relative expression of related miRNAs might serve as diagnostic indicators in defining the developmental state of embryonic cells and other stem cell lines, such as iPSCs. These data also raise the possibility that miRNAs bearing identical seed sequences could have specific functions during separable stages of early embryonic development.Stem cells and development 07/2010; 19(7):935-50.

ABSTRACT: microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate numerous physiological processes such as cell division and differentiation in many tissue types including stem cells. To probe the role that miRNAs play in regulating processes relevant to embryonic stem cell biology, we used RNA interference to silence DICER and DROSHA, the two main miRNA processing enzymes. Consistent with a role for miRNAs in maintaining normal stem cell division and renewal, we found that perturbation of miRNA pathway function in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) attenuates cell proliferation. Normal cell growth can be partially restored by introduction of the mature miRNAs miR-195 and miR-372. These miRNAs regulate two tumor suppressor genes, respectively: WEE1, which encodes a negative G2/M kinase modulator of the CycB/CDK complex and CDKN1A, which encodes p21, a CycE/CDK cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor that regulates the G1/S transition. We show that in wild-type hESCs, WEE 1 levels control the rate of hESC division, whereas p21 levels must be maintained at a low level for hESC division to proceed. These data support a model for hESC cell cycle control in which miRNAs regulate negative cell cycle modulators at two phases of the cell cycle to ensure proper replenishment of the stem cell population.Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.) 11/2009; 8(22):3729-41. · 5.01 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes results from severe insulin resistance coupled with a failure of b cells to compensate by secreting sufficient insulin. Multiple genetic loci are involved in the development of diabetes, although the effect of each gene on diabetes susceptibility is thought to be small. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding 19-22-nucleotide RNA molecules that potentially regulate the expression of thousands of genes. To understand the relationship between miRNA regulation and obesity-induced diabetes, we quantitatively profiled approximately 220 miRNAs in pancreatic islets, adipose tissue, and liver from diabetes-resistant (B6) and diabetes-susceptible (BTBR) mice. More than half of the miRNAs profiled were expressed in all three tissues, with many miRNAs in each tissue showing significant changes in response to genetic obesity. Furthermore, several miRNAs in each tissue were differentially responsive to obesity in B6 versus BTBR mice, suggesting that they may be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes. In liver there were approximately 40 miRNAs that were downregulated in response to obesity in B6 but not BTBR mice, indicating that genetic differences between the mouse strains play a critical role in miRNA regulation. In order to elucidate the genetic architecture of hepatic miRNA expression, we measured the expression of miRNAs in genetically obese F2 mice. Approximately 10% of the miRNAs measured showed significant linkage (miR-eQTLs), identifying loci that control miRNA abundance. Understanding the influence that obesity and genetics exert on the regulation of miRNA expression will reveal the role miRNAs play in the context of obesity-induced type 2 diabetes.Mammalian Genome 10/2009; 20(8):476-85.

ABSTRACT: RNA interference-mediated suppression of DICER and DROSHA in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) attenuates cell proliferation, supporting a role for an intact microRNA (miRNA) pathway in the control of hESC cell division. Normal cell growth can be partially restored by introduction of the mature miRNAs miR-195 and miR-372. These miRNAs regulate two tumor suppressor genes, respectively: WEE1, which encodes a negative G2/M kinase modulator of the cycB/CDK complex and CDKN1A, which encodes p21, a cycE/CDK cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor that regulates the G1/S transition. We show that in wild-type hESCs, WEE1 levels control the rate of hESC division, whereas p21 levels must be maintained at a low level for hESC division to proceed.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs regulate gene networks and therefore are inherently complex. MicroRNAs themselves function in networks of other microRNAs, some of which are co-expressed from the same locus. To better understand the interplay among microRNAs that underlies their functions, we examined the potential of combinatorial effects of endogenously and exogenously co-expressed microRNAs. In this review, we first distill the similarities and differences between three microRNA families that function in cell division, miR-16, miR-34a and miR-106b, with emphasis on their exquisite phenotypic diversity. Given that the microRNAs affect cell cycle progression via distinct targets, we tested for phenotypic synergism among them. Furthermore, we investigate target regulation by individual and pooled microRNAs to gain insight into interactions among microRNAs co-expressed from the same chromosomal locus. The ability of microRNAs to modulate multiple genes within a molecular pathway engenders a novel way of thinking about targeting pathways: instead of a one-inhibitor-one-target model, multiple components in a pathway can be modulated by a microRNA resulting in a potent yet reversible inhibition of the pathway. To fully realize this potential, we need to understand how microRNAs function singly and in concert with each other.Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.) 11/2008; 7(20):3137-42.

ABSTRACT: microRNAs in the miR-106b family are overexpressed in multiple tumor types and are correlated with the expression of genes that regulate the cell cycle. Consistent with these observations, miR-106b family gain of function promotes cell cycle progression, whereas loss of function reverses this phenotype. Microarray profiling uncovers multiple targets of the family, including the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21/CDKN1A. We show that p21 is a direct target of miR-106b and that its silencing plays a key role in miR-106b-induced cell cycle phenotypes. We also show that miR-106b overrides a doxorubicin-induced DNA damage checkpoint. Thus, miR-106b family members contribute to tumor cell proliferation in part by regulating cell cycle progression and by modulating checkpoint functions.Molecular and Cellular Biology 05/2008; 28(7):2167-74.

Kelly Clarkson should donate it to the museum. It's great she is a collector and has the means to buy this, and has every right to personally have this precious item. The ring is such a wonderful piece of history, for Jane Austen fans in Britain and around the world. She'll get a whole new group of fans, and her current ones will love her even more.
It was Miss Austen, not Ms.Austen. I don't think being PC actually applies here.
Let kelly take the ring! The british government possess "national treasures" from other countries as well and when they are asked for return the items, they just say no... This is just STUPID!

. Now
was brilliant.
And I just finished listening to
Storm Warning
. I liked it, but I don't think I enjoyed it quite as much as I wanted to. I guess I was expecting something...more...from the first 8th Doctor story. Maybe I'll enjoy the separate Eighth Doctor series more...
So, as soon as I can, I'll get the Sarah Jane series. And as I can buy more from the main range, should I start back at the beginning with
(the second story) and just go from there?
Sirens of Time
, I actually enjoyed more than expected. Not one of the best, by any means, but, still enjoyable.
Spare Parts
, yes, most excellent
Storm Warning yea, it's enjoyable, but, also not the best story, though I do enjoy Charley and The Doctor's performances
As far as where to go next, I've noticed many of the 2004 and earlier are cheaper then 2005 and later, especially for just download (Which is what I do), so, you may want to consider that in your decision.
The Marian Conspiracy
introduces Colin Baker's Companion Evelyn, and she is fantastic, as is Colin Baker as Six (I'm going through her stories myself for the first time). The story is pretty alright, though not fantastic, but, again, the Doctor and Evelyn are great together, and you'll be meeting a Companion from the begininng. Her next story is #9
The Spectre of Lanyon Moor
which also features The Brigadier
and is a pretty good story, and her next story is #11
The Apolypse Element
, which is where the Evelyn/Six Audios start to become pretty great, I believe, and it features Lord President Romana
So, yea, considering the cheaper prices, and so much Six/Evelyn early on, I would say go in order up to at least #15 (#14
The Holy Terror
is very popular and #16 is
Storm Warning
and the next 3 are McGann/Charley next 3 stories
So, by that time, you should have a good sampling of Doctors, Companions, and Enemies and have a good idea where you want to go from there (Wether you want to continue in order or maybe break off into a certain Doctor, certain Enemy, or certain companion)
Side note: Ooh, #10
Winter for the Adept
features Peter Jurasik (Londo Mollari from Babylon 5) and #5 features Jacqueline Pearce (Servalan from
Blake's 7
; Chesini from
The Two Doctors
Once I get all caught up with everything I already bought (And of course I'm getting Gallifrey Final Series in the Fall), that's what I'll likely do is fill in the holes of the early releases, since they are only $7.99 a download

Hi! I'm a baking addict. But first, I'm Sally. I like to take pictures, write, run, and bake. Scratch that, I'm addicted to baking. The kitchen is where my creative juices flow and Sally's Baking Addiction is where I can share it all with you.
About My Blog
I started this space to document my life after college, mostly to share the recipes I baked on the weekends. I was in my mid-twenties, working in finance, and felt a little lost in both my career and my life. I began searching for something new to take on. I tapped into my many fond memories being in the kitchen when I was younger, picked up a camera (and taught myself how to use it!), and the rest is history. In 2013 I made Sally's Baking Addiction my full time job and I've published two cookbooks (this one and this one!).
For more information about how I began my blog, made it my full time job, and the different techniques I use, feel free to browse my posts about blogging.
Sally's Baking Addiction is a fun, friendly place for readers to find their passion in the kitchen. About the food? I'm a from-scratch encourager. Butter, flour, eggs, and sugar can produce millions of unique recipes. My recipes are classic and approachable, inspired by my favorite seasonal flavors. A lot of my inspiration comes from recipes passed down in my family. I am a self-taught, mom-taught, grandma-taught baker, learning purely through my experience. The recipes on Sally's Baking Addiction are mostly all developed by myself. I bake through trial and error, testing recipe after recipe to find the perfect result.
But it's not just about the recipes. I enjoy writing informational posts about different baking techniques and how to use proper ingredients to achieve the best results. I like to share my recipe fails and triumphs with readers so they can learn along the way with me. I want everyone reading to feel like they can be a master in the kitchen. Not only that, I want everyone to enjoy the experience of making really really good food.
About Me
I grew up and currently live in Philadelphia. I graduated from Loyola University with a degree in marketing and met my husband, Kevin, while living in Baltimore. Our dog Jude is a 115 lb German Shepherd/Rottweiler rescue. Jude loves peanut butter almost as much as I do. Almost.
My favorite dessert is apple pie, my favorite TV show is Friends (and I annoyingly quote every episode as I watch), I love to run and practice yoga nearly everyday, and the only books I read are cookbooks. I also type run-on sentences and enjoy staying in my pajamas as long as possible.

- You stay out later and even all night
- You don't spend time with your family or friends your own age very much
- You don't go to school
- You've tried and use drugs and alcohol
- You are chatting online to people you don't know and have never met

Some adults encourage young people into sexual relationships. These adults will often be nice to young people and make them feel special. They may offer young people drugs and alcohol and a place to chill out – they may also buy young people gifts like clothes or mobile phones.
Once these adults have gained young people's trust their behaviour changes. They will ask young people for sexual favours in return for the gifts, often they will become violent and threatening.
You are not to blame if this is happening to you – we are here to help you.
