A catheter is inserted through a tiny incision in the groin and threaded through the arteries until it reaches the hepatic artery, one of two blood vessels feeding the liver.
The physiology of the liver makes it an ideal organ for this type of treatment. The hepatic artery is the one that most commonly supplies blood to the cancerous tumors.
When the catheter is in the proper place, millions of the microscopic beads containing Y-90 are released. The microspheres lodge in the smaller vessels that directly feed the tumor, stopping blood flow and emitting radiation to kill the tumor cells.
Patients need not be isolated after treatment with Y-90 and usually are released about three hours after the treatment.
What Y-90 offers, Dr. Johnson said, is optimism. "Hope is a magical thing."

Talk:Sasuke Uchiha
Back to page
this wiki
Rinnegan Tomoe
According to Naruto Gaiden 700+8, the tomoe of Sasuke's Rinnegan appear when he's at full power and when he's drained, he loses them...but he was able to use Amenotejikara while it was a "regular" Rinnegan. What?
Can we all agree on something before it's added and starts an editing war? --Jizo 悟 (talk) 05:57, June 18, 2015 (UTC)
- He may have mastered Amenotejikara to a point where he didn't need to use too much chakra. For more grandiose techniques such as maybe the Six Paths Technique and its variants, yeah, he might need the full power of the Rinnegan. ★WindStar7125 06:04, June 18, 2015 (UTC)
We know that his Mangekyo was supposed to be his EMS(art error in this chapter), but it is confirmed he has a normal Rinnegan but it is powered up basically 2 Rinnegan in one with his Left EMS Powers put into it adding 6 tomoe to it, when he overuses it, it's back to a normal tomoe-less Rinnegan and we didn't know this before because he simply closed his eyes before. Btw, DB4 says Amenotejikara is a Rinnegan tech regardless, it seems it is just his personal tech, like Madaras personal tech is Limbo QuakingStar (talk) 06:08, June 18, 2015 (UTC)
- It's also possible he could only teleport with the tomoe Rinnegan, and when it reverted to its original Rinnegan form he had to wait to regain chakra before transforming it, again. He didn't say he used the normal Rinnegan form to teleport. Diamonddeath (talk) 07:11, June 18, 2015 (UTC)
Healing Power
There seems to be confusion on whether Sasuke has Hashirama's cells or not. Even if he doesn't have his arm, would he not still have his cells due to Kabuto implanting them into him when healing him? Also, if you're going to say that Kabuto didn't implant the cells into him but used his "study" of the cells to help him then can you link the chapter please? Cause that doesn't make any sense. How does the study of Hashirama's super cells help Kabuto heal Sasuke faster? Would it not make sense for him to be implanting Hashirama's cells into him? --Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 (talk) 17:45, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- Well thing is that it actially creates even more mess that we have already, Kabuto implanting Hashirama cells(instead of using knowledge) into Sasuke means that Kabuto himself had them. As we know implanting Hashirama cells is very hard to achive(considering Yamato is sole survivor and Danzo needed Shin's hand) while i ready to buy that Sasuke is able to "acept" them(as Madara did) i doubt that Kabuto is can do the same. Moreover in fight with Itachi and Sasuke, Kabuto stated that his healing power stems from Karin, if had Hashi cells why did not he mention it as better source? ./ Rage gtx (talk) 18:03, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- You don't need the cells in your own body to apply them to another body, lol • Seelentau 愛 議 18:16, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- So snake-hose was not from Kabuto's body?And i didn't see anything that even remotely resembles any equipment(medical for this matter) near Kabuto. ./ Rage gtx (talk) 18:20, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- No idea, but he said he used them, not the he himself possessed them. • Seelentau 愛 議 18:21, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- So snake-hose was not from Kabuto's body?And i didn't see anything that even remotely resembles any equipment(medical for this matter) near Kabuto. ./ Rage gtx (talk) 18:20, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- You don't need the cells in your own body to apply them to another body, lol • Seelentau 愛 議 18:16, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
Yes, it's quite possible that Kabuto simply carried Hashirama's cells and later implanted them into Sasuke. What I'm trying to say though, is if the translation of that chapter is correct, then Sasuke certainly has Hashirama's cells, then he has the healing power doesn't he? That should settle the whole editing war going on on the Healing Power page ya think? --Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 (talk) 21:47, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
- Well i don't know considering amout of cells that need to heal pierced heart is minimal i don't even think it can work with him. Anyway i think we must list only people who actually displayed this feat and exclude Jugo, Yamato, Sasuke, Naruto who didn't show it. ./ Rage gtx (talk) 23:09, June 19, 2015 (UTC)
Animated Rinnegan Pic (Boruto trailer)?
I can add it, but didn't want to do anything without consensus.--KirinNOTKarin98 (talk) 03:15, June 25, 2015 (UTC)
- I was gonna upload it but it didn't show all 6 tomoe fully. I'd wait a couple of weeks for the anime but thats just my opinion. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 03:39, June 25, 2015 (UTC)
- It's cool. The current picture is a really good one after all.--KirinNOTKarin98 (talk) 04:37, June 25, 2015 (UTC)

(Clear Waters (talk) 19:17, June 28, 2015 (UTC))
- I'm fine with the current one, as other people are. Besides the first image has lightning streaks and a curse mark visible, the second one shows the Akatsuki hood (which isn't something he prominently wears), and the third image I'm pretty sure is edited. All in all, no. --SSJ2AJB (talk) 19:26, June 28, 2015 (UTC)

Interesting info from Kiper. As the Falcon's with Bailey,Watt or Broyles. Adrian Clayborn if he fell to the Falcon's.I;m not in love with any of these picks although Broyles would give more production than Douglas and return punts. If the Falcon's feel confident Douglas can bounce back then no receivere will be selected.Also consider Kerry Meier will be back don't forget. Bailey and Watt I just don't think have the edge type of speed to get to the QB and be an ABE like player. Why draft second type def ends when you already have Biermann? Falcon's need some star players.
Every Friday, Mel takes a look at the NFL through the prism of the draft.
A couple weeks ago I took a look at how the Top 10 could shake out, based on the at-the-time records of those teams. That's a particularly interesting subject right now because of the uncertainty surrounding Andrew Luck. With the teams sitting at the top of the draft, one thing was clear: unsettled quarterback situations dotted the picture. Nine of the worst 13 records in the league, by my count, had a quarterback situation probably best defined by putting a question mark at the top of the depth chart.
Looking at the bottom of the first round, the opposite is true. Quarterback situations in New England, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Baltimore and on down into the middle of the first round are solid in almost every case. But these teams aren't without holes. Even the Patriots have clear needs, and fortunately (and traditionally), a ton of picks. So let's stack the "Bottom 10" in the first round, with a few added because of tied records.
The draft order below is based on current records, with one game left. Pick ideas are based on the current Big Board, which as you all know will change a lot as juniors decide on draft entry and the workout process.
32. (and ?) New England Patriots
Top needs: LT/LG, OLB, RB, WR
Pick strategy: Based on contracts, there's some uncertainty on the New England offensive line moving forward, and even when the line is sound, there's hardly a better guarantee of success in the NFL today than keeping Tom Brady upright. Late in the first round, the Patriots look at versatile interior linemen like Florida's Mike Pouncey or Villanova's Ben Ijalana, or an athletic tackle like Tyron Smith. If a guy like Wisconsin's Gabe Carimi fell here, that would be too good to pass up.
Another area this team needs to address is getting a pass rush from the outside linebacker position. I like Jermaine Cunningham's potential, but between he, Rob Ninkovich and Tully Banta-Cain, the Pats got just nine total sacks. So given that the Patriots have the Oakland pick, a likely mid-teens choice, they can hope a guy like Von Miller falls to them, or "settle" for a great talent like Akeem Ayers. At the end of the first, perhaps that could be a Justin Houston or Jeremy Beal. The wild card? I think the Pats should target a big wideout to re-open the down-the-field threat. Perhaps Julio Jones falls to them in the teens. If so, he'd be an ideal pickup. I also see this team targeting a RB at some point -- no slight to the current cast. I just highly doubt that would be early, unless a guy like Mark Ingram is still sitting there at No. 32.
31. Atlanta Falcons
Top needs: Pass-rushing DE, WR, OLB, TE
Pick strategy: In general I really like the way this team has been put together. They don't have a lot of what most teams would consider clear needs. I'd like to see them target a pass-rusher at the defensive end position, and if a guy like Adrian Clayborn fell this far (doubtful), they should grab him. A player like Allen Bailey of Miami or J.J. Watt of Wisconsin would be more likely, however. I also think the team should target a reliable receiver to put opposite of Roddy White, who draws an extremely high rate of targets for them. This year, he has 171, with the next closest Atlanta wideout at 65. If Oklahoma's Ryan Broyles is around, he might be the ideal complement.
Tied: Pick Nos. 30-27
New Orleans Saints
Top needs: Pass-rushing DE, DT, OLB, RB
Pick strategy: Nobody likes to bring the blitz more than Gregg Williams, but necessity is a bigger reason. I wouldn't call a pickup like Alex Brown a disappointment, but this is a position where the Saints should get younger and better. So go ahead and repeat the possible trio just mentioned for the Falcons. As well, the team could use an OLB, or really active defensive tackle if one is sitting there late. Maybe North Carolina's Marvin Austin can see his stock reach previous levels and land here, or the Saints go with a guy like the rising Corey Liuget of Illinois. One guy I think fits here at OLB, but could be a slight reach (at least with current ratings) is Travis Lewis of Oklahoma.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Top needs: OL, CB, WR
Pick strategy: Pittsburgh is in a good position to get the kind of player they need. You could see Carimi here, Derek Sherrod of Mississippi State, or even Anthony Costanzo of Boston College, a player I thought could be a mid-first round pick before the season. But I really think Pittsburgh should target a cornerback. Janoris Jenkins, if he's around in the late 20's, is a steal in terms of overall skill-set. He's a guy who helps out your defense in some capacity in Week 1. If he's gone, Ras-I Dowling of Virginia could be available. Dowling was a constant on the Big Board for much of the year but fell off because of injury concerns, but nothing that looks like a long-term issue. I also think the Steelers will look at a WR at some point. Hines Ward keeps producing, but bringing along a rookie in the way they did Mike Wallace is a good idea.
Chicago Bears
Top needs: C, RG, DT, CB
Pick strategy: I'm not sold on the idea that it's a foregone conclusion the Bears will go after an offensive lineman in Round 1. That's because where they really need to look -- mainly on the interior given development they've gotten on the edges -- is a place you can find some value at a later point. You just don't see guards and centers drafted in the first round too often, unless you have a guy like Maurkice Pouncey or Mike Iupati last year, where the guy will immediately be starting and an upgrade. Keep an eye on corner, where Jenkins could be a good get. As well, while the Bears have developed a competent core of wideouts seemingly on the cheap, if a big target that can overwhelm smaller DBs is here, such as Jon Baldwin of Pitt, it's something that could help diversify what Chicago can do in that passing game. And while Chicago has gotten the job done up front, if they want continued effectiveness from an aging corp of linebackers, they'll need to invest in a defensive tackle, perhaps right here.
Baltimore Ravens
Top needs: WR, OLB, CB
Pick strategy: Derrick Mason is still a big part of the Baltimore offense, but like Pittsburgh with Hines Ward, they can't count on that forever. With Anquan Boldin not much of a deep threat, Baltimore may try to address the void they attempted to fill with Donte' Stallworth and target a real stretch WR. Depending on how he runs, Justin Blackmon could be around into the 20's, and Baldwin is also an option. The circumstances surrounding Sergio Kindle leaves that OLB position as something that could be addressed again, and a guy like Houston could be around here, or Ayers if Baltimore is lucky. But a big thing they could target is corner, a position they didn't draft at all in 2010.
Mark J. Rebilas/US Presswire
Plenty of teams will be eyeing Akeem Ayers.
Tied: Pick Nos. 26-24
Philadelphia Eagles
Top needs: CB, OLB
Pick strategy: It's good for Philly that they really don't look like a team with what I'd call glaring needs. What they do face is an odd situation where the health of two of their top picks in 2010 is at issue. Both Nate Allen and Brandon Graham face rehab, so both those spots are places where I can see Philly making depth picks, if not early ones. The Eagles should target a corner, and both Dowling and Jenkins could figure in here. I can see them going for an OLB here as well.
Kansas City Chiefs Top needs: C, WR, 3-4 DE, OLB
Pick strategy: The Chiefs got a lot out of their draft in 2010, and they can do so again, as this is a team that's close but still could use talent upgrades at some key spots. The Chiefs could be the team in best position among several here with needs along the interior of the offensive line to get Pouncey out of Florida. But they could also use some fresh legs on the other side of the formation from Dwayne Bowe. As well, a good 3-4 DE opposite Tamba Hali would be ideal. If Nevis is still around into the 20's, the Chiefs could scoop him up.
New York Jets
Top needs: Pass-rushing OLB, DE, S, WR
Pick strategy: Rex Ryan can scheme with the best of them, but his ability to work with what he has might conceal some holes in terms of talent on the defensive side of the ball. I expect the Jets to address the pass rush, and a great 3-4 DE still on the board would be a good get here, or an OLB who can do some damage in the backfield. This is too high to grab a safety, given the current class, but I can see the Jets looking there if a guy like DeAndre McDaniel is still around later. As well, there are no guarantees yet that Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes will be back, and if the team is going to be without one or both, wideout suddenly jumps to the forefront as a need, and several of the receivers mentioned above could come into play.
Cleveland Browns
Top needs: WR, 3-4 DE
Pick strategy: If Green is somehow on the board at this stage -- and he could be, if you know drafts and how things can shake out, particularly if his 40 time isn't remarkable -- the Browns should have their pick in before the Commish is done taking photos with the previous pick. If he's not, Bama's Julio Jones or Oklahoma State's Justin Blackmon could come into the picture. If they don't like either, they should go D-line.
Let's quickly run through the four teams tied at 9-6.
Tied: Pick Nos. 23-20
Green Bay Packers
Top needs: OLB, T, RB
Pick strategy: Maybe the first team that could pull the trigger on the top RB on the board, the Packers could also consider a tackle, perhaps moving Bryan Bulaga in the process. They could also use an OLB opposite Clay Matthews, a player who could thrive as a rusher given the blocking attention Matthews will continue to get.
Indianapolis Colts
Top needs: DT, OL, WR
Pick strategy: This team really needs a big-time defensive tackle. If Stephen Paea of Oregon State is here, while it could be a slight reach, he could fit there. They could also target offensive line, and while they've been resourceful at WR, Peyton Manning's frustration with that current unit could come into play. With uncertainty surrounding Austin Collie and Reggie Wayne going into a season where he'll turn 33, some long-term answers would help.
New York Giants
Top needs: CB, LB, WR
Pick strategy: I really like the makeup of this offense. The Steve Smith injury might have them looking at WR help, but not this early. I think targeting a LB or CB is a more likely plan, and Jenkins could be a good fit for the latter. If the top LBs are off the board, they may choose to wait so they don't have to reach.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Top needs: DE, CB
Pick strategy: They addressed the defensive interior last year, but defensive end would be a good target in 2011 for a team happy to be so far down the board. I also think a young corner to apprentice under the ageless Ronde Barber is a move they need to make.
The next team in line? Based on current records, would be St. Louis, where a focus on targets for Sam Bradford should be a focus, as will a top DT or OLB.

Re: Kiper forecast picks 20-32 ESPN
I'm not sure why people are putting a lot of stock into Meier. He is coming off the same knee injury that Douglas came off of, and unlike Douglas doesn't even have a full year of experience.
I'm not a huge fan of Broyles, but he's an explosive slot weapon that can add some versatility. I think he would be an upgrade over Douglas, but I think he has some of the similar limitations that Douglas has.
Watt and Bailey I don't think fit our defense. Both are 3-4 defensive ends, that I think would be overmatched playing DT in a 4-3. They can play 4-3 DE, but wouldn't really add anything to the roster that Anderson already doesn't bring.
I don't see Broyles and Bailey staying in the 1st round once the underclassmen start to declare.

Watt and Bailey I don't think fit our defense. Both are 3-4 defensive ends, that I think would be overmatched playing DT in a 4-3. They can play 4-3 DE, but wouldn't really add anything to the roster that Anderson already doesn't bring.
I don't see Broyles and Bailey staying in the 1st round once the underclassmen start to declare.

Press release from CNW Group
Guyana Goldfields Continues to Confirm and Extend Gold Mineralization at the Aurora Gold Project; New Resource Estimate to Come in December
Friday, November 11, 2011
Guyana Goldfields Continues to Confirm and Extend Gold Mineralization at the Aurora Gold Project; New Resource Estimate to Come in December07:30 EST Friday, November 11, 2011TORONTO, Nov. 11, 2011 /CNW/ - Guyana Goldfields Inc. (TSX: GUY) ("GGI" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that assay results from eighty-five (85) new drill holes have been received from drilling within the "Golden Square Mile" at the Aurora Gold Project. These drill holes are part of an ongoing exploration program within the "Golden Square Mile", which began at the beginning of June 2011, subsequent to the last resource estimate cut-off date of May 2011, and will be continued in 2012. The primary aim of the drill program is to expand known mineralization at depth beneath all zones. All intervals in this release are down hole depths. There are seven (7) diamond drill rigs currently drilling on exploration targets within the "Golden Square Mile" and along trend at Aurora.These results will not be included in the upcoming Feasibility Study due to be delivered by January 15, 2012, however, a revised resource estimate for Aurora will be issued mid December 2011 incorporating all additional exploration resources discovered post the May 2011 cut-off date. The revised resource estimate is being prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada), Inc. ("SRK") of Toronto, Ontario in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") and provides an update to SRK's previous resource estimate issued earlier this year (see press release dated September 9, 2011).Rory's KnollDeep diamond drilling at Rory's Knoll continues with the objective to further expand the mineralized zone from 1,566 meters (which is the current depth of the Measured & Indicated block model for the Feasibility Study) to 2,100 meters below surface, where a previous mother hole went to a depth of 2,112 meters (see press release dated September 9, 2011). Results from five (5) drill holes have been received and confirm the continuity of grade, width, and depth of the mineralized tonalite. This new drilling to date between 1,566 and 2,100 meters has only tested 25% of the projected extension of mineralization at Rory's Knoll, which is outlined in light blue in Figures 1 and 2.New results from RKD-162 wedge holes include:RKD-162W-5: 92.00 meters @ 3.14 g/t Au from 1,014 meters, including 16 meters @ 7.12 g/t Au from 1,054 meters. And 115 meters @ 3.34 g/t Au from 1,158 meters including 16 meters @ 7.35 g/t Au from 1,211 meters.RKD-162W-6: 32 meters @ 3.05 g/t Au from 943 meters, 50 meters @ 3.32 g/t Au from 1,055 meters and 22 meters @ 4.80 g/t Au from 1,211 meters.Results from RKD-163 wedge holes include:RKD-163W-1: 174 meters @ 3.22 g/t Au from 1,557 meters, including 4 meters @ 14.70 g/t Au from 1,557 meters and including 6 meters @ 10.37 g/t Au from 1,719 meters.RKD-163W-3: 62 meters @ 3.47 g/t Au from 1,558 meters, 50 meters @ 4.13 g/t Au from 1,684 meters and 84 meters @ 4.28 g/t Au from 1,943 meters including 10 meters @ 9.80 g/t Au from 1,985 meters.RKD-163W-4A: 12 meters @ 3.04 g/t Au from 1,578 meters, 10 meters @ 3.18 g/t Au from 1,804 meters and 14 meters @ 4.00 g/t Au from 1,954 meters.The reported grade intercepts for Rory's Knoll were calculated from a minimum grade cut-off of 1.8 g/t Au with minimum reported average grade of 3.00 g/t Au (which is consistent with the Feasibility Study parameters and SRK's latest resource estimate).Central Zone - Aleck Hill and Mad KissAt Aleck Hill and Mad Kiss, in-fill and step-out drilling continues and assay results from eighty (80) drill holes were received. Results from step-out drilling further extended the dip and strike continuity of all zones. Significant intercepts include:AHD-251: 30 meters @ 1.66 g/t Au from 405 meters, including 3 meters @ 10.30 g/t Au from 432 meters.AHD-260: 22 meters @ 5.35 g/t Au from 327 meters, including 10 meters @ 10.15 g/t Au from 333 meters.AHD-266: 63 meters @ 1.40 g/t Au from 231 meters, including 12 meters @ 4.65 g/t Au from 282 meters.AHD-268: 34 meters @ 2.33 g/t Au from 423 meters, including 7.50 meters @ 4.48 g/t Au from 449.50 meters.AHD-269: 45 meters @ 2.73 g/t Au from 561 meters, including 20 meters @ 5.27 g/t Au from 586 meters.AHD-270: 72 meters @ 2.96 g/t Au from 647 meters, including 39 meters @ 5.27 g/t Au from 680 meters, including 14.50 meters @ 12.63 g/t Au from 704.50 meters.Grade intercepts for the central zones were calculated using a minimum grade cut-off of 0.40 g/t Au (which is consistent with the Feasibility Study parameters and SRK's latest resource estimate issued Sept 9, 2011).The complete assay results received between September 4, 2011 and November 9, 2011 for the eighty-five (85) new drill holes at both Rory's Knoll and the central zones are tabulated in the attached intercept spreadsheets 1 and 2. Significant intercepts from these results confirming the continuity of the mineralized zones are highlighted in yellow.Spreadsheet 1 - Rory's KnollRory's Knoll 5 Total 5Spreadsheet 2 - Central Zone Aleck Hill zones 57 Mad Kiss zones 23 Total 80 Total new drill holes 85Dan Noone, Vice-President, Exploration states, "Exploration success thus far has exceeded our expectations and we still have yet to determine the limits of mineralization. The results show all zones continue to extend and remain open at depth and we will deliver an updated revised resource estimate in December to demonstrate the growth within the deposit that we have been encountering. We are currently devising our exploration program for 2012 which will focus on making new discoveries along strike outside of the "Golden Square Mile".The Aurora deep drilling program is being carried out under the direction of Mr. Niel Silvio (Aus.IMM), a qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101.

A South Milwaukee man was sentenced Thursday to life in prison for the killing of an Oak Creek man whom he initially reported as missing but later admitted to police the victim had been pressing him to pay a drug debt.
Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Jeffrey Conen sentenced James Szuta to life in prison for the first-degree intentional homicide of John Weinhold, who was found shot to death in June 2010 inside a minivan near a Cudahy park.
Under the sentence, Szuta will be eligible for release under extended supervision after he serves 37 years.
Szuta initially told police Weinhold had been abducted, but investigators later learned that Szuta owed Weinhold money and linked him to Weinhold's killing through DNA evidence, according to the criminal complaint in the case.
Szuta eventually admitted to police that he bought drugs from Weinhold and said Weinhold was pressing him to pay his debt. He told police he knew Weinhold always carried a large amount of money.
Investigators also said in the compliant they found Weinhold's blood near the passenger seat of Szuta's uncle's truck.

Alan Gilbert Conducts 'Henry V: A Shakespeare Scenario,' with Christopher Plummer
Christopher Plummer will narrate Henry V: A Shakespeare Scenario, with music from Sir William Walton's score for the Laurence Olivier film of Shakespeare's Henry V, conducted by Music Director Alan Gilbert, The Yoko Nagae Ceschina Chair, Monday, April 11, 2011, at 7:30 p.m. The program will also include music of Shakespeare's time. Joining the New York Philharmonic will be the Manhattan School of Music Symphonic Chorus and Chamber Choir, Kent Tritle, director, and The American Boychoir, Fernando Malvar-Ruiz, director.
In 1943-44 William Walton (1902-1983) composed the music for the film adaptation of Shakespeare's Henry V, produced and directed by Laurence Olivier, who also played the title role. The late Christopher Palmer - a writer, orchestrator, and arranger - put together his Henry V: A Shakespeare Scenario, using large sections of the Oscar- nominated score, for Neville Marriner and Christopher Plummer in 1988. Mr. Plummer has recorded and performed this version several times, including with the New York Philharmonic in December 1996, conducted by Leonard Slatkin.
Christopher Plummer played the role of Henry in Shakespeare's Henry V in 1956 at the age of 26 at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in Canada. It was a performance that launched his career. -I was suddenly taken seriously,? he told The New York Times in 1981. He has performed it several times since and, as an accomplished pianist, has also branched out musically to narrate concert versions of Henry V, Peer Gynt, and Prokofiev's Ivan the Terrible.

Week 8 NFC East Power Rankings
Week 8 NFC East Power Rankings
It was an interesting weekend for the NFC East division. After two teams snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, the division went 1-3.
The Dallas Cowboys seemed to have a victory all locked up against the Detroit Lions. At least, they did until Matthew Stafford led a touchdown drive in the final minute of the game to win it for Detroit. Calvin Johnson had 329 receiving yards and Dez Bryant threw a couple fits, kind of. Those are basically the big storylines from this one.
The Washington Redskins nearly shocked the NFL-world when they were leading the Denver Broncos 21-7 five minutes into the third quarter. Then, Peyton Manning and company got real and scored 38 unanswered points while the Redskins seemingly collapsed around them. Things got ugly fast in Denver for Washington.
The third game of the day was between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants. This was the second meeting between the two and it was just as ugly as the first, but the Giants got the "W" thanks to five Josh Brown field goals.
Oddly enough, this division is wide open as we head to Week 9. The New York Giants, who at one point many believed didn't stand a chance of making the playoffs, now find themselves just two games out of first along with the Redskins. The Eagles have completely become a mess, and the Cowboys are consistently the NFL's best losers. They come oh so close against really good teams but can't quite find a way to finish the game with a win.
After Week 8 of the NFL season, the NFC East power rankings now look a little bit different.
Away we go!

4. Philadelphia Eagles (Last Week: 3)
Things have now officially hit rock bottom for the once mighty Eagles. After the way they demolished the Redskins in Week 1, many believed they were the best team in the NFL, let alone the division. Quarterback troubles have ruined this team and things aren't looking up with Mike Vick injuring his hamstring again against the Giants.
3. New York Giants (Last Week: 4)
At long last, the Giants have climbed from the cellars of the division after beating the Eagles. Eli Manning has been taking care of the football better in recent weeks and things may be starting to turn around in New York. We've seen them make a late season push in years past, and they could be setting up to do it again.
2. Washington Redskins (Last Week: 2)
The Redskins' defense looked really good against the Broncos for a whole half and some change. The offense, not so much. Don't go overboard with Kirk Cousins' good play at the end of the game. The Broncos' defense didn't prepare for him and weren't ready for him. Robert Griffin III is still the team's leader, but Alfred Morris needs more of a workload for them to find future success. The Giants are hot on their heels for the second spot in this ranking.
1. Dallas Cowboys (Last Week: 1)
Despite the comeback by the Lions, Dallas remains atop the NFC East power rankings simply because they didn't look that bad in the loss. This time, you can't blame Tony Romo for this late game debacle. The defense just didn't have an answer for Calvin Johnson. Like I said earlier, the Cowboys are good enough to beat good teams they just have an issue closing the deal late in the going.
Week 9 Outlook and Predictions
Three of the four NFC East teams will be in action this coming week with the Giants being on their bye week.
The Redskins will come home to Washington to play the San Diego Chargers. Again, the secondary has a tough task in stopping the Chargers offense. The Redskins can win this one handily if they rely on Alfred Morris more than they did in the second half against the Broncos. I think they will and Washington will come away with a 28-17 victory.
Dallas will stay home and play the Minnesota Vikings. Minnesota is a mess at every position except for running back, but not even Adrian Peterson has been able to carry this team to any success. The offensive line is a mess and the Cowboys' defense will play well in a 34-14 victory.
Philadelphia heads out west to play the Oakland Raiders. Terrelle Pryor is not a quarterback to be taken lightly and the Eagles offense isn't as stellar as we all once thought. The Eagles drop to 3-6 after losing to the Raiders, 14-6.

Their cakes are not bad actually but I think their marketing is better than their cakes. The coffee is disappointing though.
3 Days in Sydney
Museum Guide for Sydney
Best & Worst of Sydney
Was once a good thing but now rolled by the opposition. With dough collective across the road I think business has been dissected. Still Asian style cakes are ok. But that's it. The new kid dough has taken over
Deserts are nice and tasty but the staff were very rude when I visited the shop.
We were there just before they were closing the shop so there was a guy and a girl that they were so rude that I felt like throwing their desert on to their faces.
I'm never returning here purely because of he service I...
I'm more for the presentation here rather than the taste. It is a well recognised cake or dessert store and has many franchises in sydney. My girlfriend is a big fan of their cakes.
We takeaway one birthday cake from this cafe and it is really nice!!!!! The price is also quite reasonable, about $40 for a cake that could easily serve 10-12 pax...
The cafe also provide a numbered candle and paper plate and fork for us to enjoy the cake. This comes handy especially for tourist
This Chain store is the best when it comes to coffee and breads. It has authentic Taiwanese Breads and Cakes. Their is a variety of cakes to choose to match your coffee or tea. And the price is not expensive. It beats any other bread shops in Chinatown. Definitely worth going.
For Coffee lovers, try the sea salt flavour coffee...
Large variety. Too bad it doesn't taste as good as it looks.
Cakes aren't overly sweet, and they are nice and light. Try the 'salt' coffee, sounds awful tastes great!
Yummy cakes, all sizes and flavours!! absolutely delicious. No place to sit, it is a take away place.

Publisher's Description
David Anderson writes about multicultural leadership not from the perspective of an ivory tower intellectual, but as a hands-on practitioner who loves and believes in the body of Christ. . . . If you believe there is no solution to the race problem, I urge you to reconsider and to learn from someone who is on the frontlines of making multicultural ministry a reality in the church today. Bill Hybels, founding and senior pastor, Willow Creek Community Church Multiculturalism isnt a trend, its a reality. Evidence of this countrys rich racial mix is all around us in our schools, our stores, our neighborhoods, our recreational facilitieseverywhere except our churches. Heaven may include every culture, tongue, and tribe, but in the United States, Sunday morning remains one of the last bastions of ethnic separatism. Its time to stop merely talking about multicultural worship and start living it. In this groundbreaking book, David Anderson invites us allAfrican-American, Asian, Caucasian, and Latinoto learn how to dance the dance of multicultural ministry. Weve all got different moves, but thats the beauty of diversity: the various gifts we bring, the wisdom of our heritages, the different creative ways we express the same Lord. Think it cant be done? Think again. As Anderson demonstrates, it is being done successfully by more and more churches. Wherever your church is now on the multicultural continuum, you can join the ranks of those moving toward a diverse and thriving ministry. Combining frontline insights with inspiring stories, Anderson takes you and your church into the strategy-level realities of what it takes to make multicultural ministry work in your setting. Do you hear the beat of the Spirit? God is calling your church to the dance of unity in diversity. Dont hold back! Grab this book, get out on the dance floor, and let Multicultural Ministry show you the steps. Includes a Racial Reconciliation survey and six-session Racial Reconciliation curriculum.

Pratt & Whitney has sanctioned a new round of studies of a modified JT8D-219 to power the proposed Aerion supersonic business jet (SSBJ). P&W believes there could be a market for between 250 and 300 aircraft, representing up to 600 engines.
The company, which has already spent about $1 million on initial studies, completed a "system level zero" review on 4 November. "We got a passing review, which means we will continue to work on refinement of the design with Aerion," says advanced commercial engines and technology programme manager Peter Robertson.
P&W is anxious to sustain the JT8D, which it believes will "be in service well out to the 2020s", and believes the production line could be reopened "at the end of this year or early next", pending the go-ahead next month of a long-delayed US Air Force Northrop Grumman E-8 JSTARS re-engining programme.
Initial studies for Aerion focused on mitigating concerns over the endurance of the JT8D-219 at sustained supersonic cruise, and in particular looked at high- and low-pressure turbine oxidation and creep; high- and low-pressure compressor (HPC and LPC) stability and creep; fan blade stability at high thrust; and oil system temperature control.
"Because of the adaptations we have done for the engine and the higher workload on JSTARS, we have been able to come up with LPC and HPC fixes, such as revised materials for the HPC," says Robertson. Fan blade stability tests are planned for 2006, "though the flow hitting the fan should be no worse than on the [Boeing] MD-80".
Provisional adaptations include adding an air/oil cooler in the fan duct and using materials in military engines such as the F119 and F135 for the turbine, to withstand the higher operating temperatures. As part of the next phase, United Technologies' research group will work with P&W on refinement of the inlet, nozzle and exhaust "to ensure we meet Stage 4", says Robertson.

I notice in impnotes it says that this doesn't work.
(I also notice it gives an error when I try it.)
This seems to me to be incompatible with the CL spec.
If so it should be changed.
I suppose it's an implementation choice whether this returns
a pathname or nil (if you consider a directory to not be a file),
but I'd suggest an extra keyword argument to control that choice.
Has this been discussed before?
If so I must not have been paying attention.

Keppinger homers to lead off for Louisville.
Keppinger homers to lead off for Louisville.
Hamilton homers. Bats up 2-0.
Oh yeah, he's pretty good.
Surprise, surprise. Josh Hamilton's homerun was to the opposite field. What a shocker that is.
And now Bellhorn homers. That's three homers in the first inning. Can Votto make it four?
Can't really tell on Gameday how deep Votto's fly out to center was.
the announcer got excited, he said it was caught up against the wall.
Gameday shows Votto flying out to deep leftcenter but the ball was over the fence on the gameday board. Was he robbed of a homerun or something?
Dayton is tied 1-1 after one inning.
Stubbs walked, Valaika singled, and then Francisco singled to score Stubbs.

On a rainy afternoon on Aug. 22, Sidur was joined by fellow soldiers from the Army National Guard's 105th infantry, including John Goot, and Don Trudeau, a member of the 165th infantry who was awarded a Purple Heart. The weather didn't seem to bother the three men as they traded war stories.
While Goot said with three different people giving their account, they may not all agree on what exactly happened, but Sidur said he was learning so much from just talking things out with the other two.
On Aug. 15, Sidur was awarded the Purple Heart, for an injury sustained during fighting in Okinawa, Japan, that resulted in a bullet lodged in his right hand on April 21, 1945.
That was not the first time he had been injured during battle, though.
During the Banzai Charge in Saipan, Sidur was shot in the same hand, as well as along his entire arm. There was no medical record of his treatment by a corpsman with the 2nd Marine Division, which was the reason he did not receive a Purple Heart for that injury.
Sidur and Goot were riflemen in the infantry, while Trudeau was a part of the anti-tank company where he fired motors to take out tanks and armored cars.
When the battle had turned sour for the Japanese, Emperor Hirohito promised soldiers, as well as the civilians in Saipan, eternal rewards in the afterlife if they were able to kill at least seven American soldiers before they died, according to Greene.
The two infantries were alerted of the charge by a Japanese scout the night before. When the next day came, a large gap stood between the 105th and the 165th, a gap the Marines were supposed to close, as well as one the Japanese soldiers took advantage of around 5 a.m.

In our recent travels around Alabama, we visited Montgomery and the Rosa Parks Museum. The museum and library is in a beautiful, relatively new building on the corner where Rosa Parks was arrested and where once stood a movie theater. Troy University, which operates the museum, was going to tear down the theater and build a parking lot, but an effort was organized to establish the museum.
There are two parts to the museum tour, a Children's Museum with a theme-park style ride and the main museum. The Children's Museum attraction is a bus transformed into a time machine that uses video and special effects to take visitors through reenactments of black American history starting in the early 1800s up to the time of Rosa Parks' arrest. Upstairs there's a digital library and research center. Unless you have kids, I'd recommend skipping the time machine exhibit.
The main museum has extensive exhibits and artifacts from the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott, which gave way to the modern civil rights movement. Along with the other exhibits, there's a replica bus with a unique video presentation projected through the bus windows portraying Rosa Parks' arrest.
The visit is a little too structured and controlled for my liking. There's a mandatory introductory video, and a tour guide accompanies you through the museum telling the story and explaining the exhibits before letting you go back and study them at your leisure. Photography is not allowed in most of the museum areas. Still, it is definitely worth a visit if you're in Montgomery.
On our way out of town we spotted the Hank Williams Museum, which naturally we had to visit. No photography allowed there, either, but they had tons of great memorabilia, including costumes, instruments, recording contracts, royalty payment statements, letters, furniture and so on. They also have the Cadillac Hank Williams was riding in when he died from a heart attack at the age of 29. He had just hours before left Knoxville on his way to a performance in West Virginia.
Downtown Montgomery is pretty and there's some cool old architecture and of course the imposing state capitol building. There's also a very nice waterfront park. Curiously, everything was deserted -- it was like a ghost town. Click the above image for some photos.
I've spent many a week in
I've spent many a week in south Alabama and south Georgia visitng customers. Never had a chance to just visit. I'm glad we made this trip. Lots of history and small town USA.

I forgot to mention there's a prominent exhibit at the Rosa Parks museum about her time at the Highlander School.
Hank Williams on Rutledge Pike
The drive-in sign was still standing last time I drove by. I believe it was the Twin-Aire. It stands near the Corryton/ Mascot boarder. That is where the hitch hiker was picked up and it was at that point Hank Williams was last asserted to be alive. The spot is near the point Rutledge Pike intersects with Mine road.
Years ago, this area was in the middle of a route I ran and every day I thought of Hank Williams when I drove past the ruins of the drive-in and John Bean when I drove past the ruins of Skaggston School. The area could be haunted, you know.
