Clippers Waive Ruben Patterson
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Thu, 12/13/07, 11:30am:
MEMPHIS -- The Clippers today waived forward Ruben Patterson in a move aimed at creating roster flexibility.
The move does not necessarily mean the roster spot will be immediately filled. The organization is concerned over the lingering injury to point guard Sam Cassell, who has missed the last eight games because of a strained left calf, and may seek help at that position.
Patterson was the only Clipper whose salary was not guaranteed. His one-year contract of $770,610 would have become guaranteed on Saturday.
He is coming off a career year for the Milwaukee Bucks, where he averaged career highs in points at 14.7 and rebounds with 4.7.
Patterson, 6-foot-5 and 223 pounds, is considered an undersized forward but an aggressive defender.
He waited deep into the off-season, looking to sign a large free-agent contract, but found the market frigid.
Instead, he signed for the veteran's minimum with the Clippers after forward Elton Brand sustained his Achilles' tendon injury.
Patterson started five of the Clippers 21 games, including the season opener against the Golden State Warriors, when he was charged with the task of defending Warrior point guard Baron Davis.
A lot of observers consider Patterson a quintessential "energy guy" which, for me, has always been a euphemism for "can't really quantify his attributes." That "energy" manifested itself for me most visibly last night when Patterson tried to save the ball under the Charlotte basket...resulting in an easy Bobcat hoop. Examine his astronomical turnover rate of 18.1 and you'll see "energy" all over the data.
Given his absolute lack of offensive skills, you think it would be enough for Patterson to continue his winning formula of scoring without shooting -- namely, picking up garbage every five or so playing minutes for an easy bucket. That's how Patterson became a >.520 FG% shooter in this league. Unfortunately, this season he's been an unbridled basketball playing id. His FG% has dropped to .453. Though he can't hit a FT, he'll insist on working his way to the line on a 2-on-1 break rather than returning the ball to a teammate across the lane who can actually finish.
In any event, the Clippers just became a better basketball team, though one fears for those who might confront Patterson with his newfound free time. Those of you who communicate with a higher power should pray for their safety.
ADDENDUM: Please don't interpret this as anything other than what it is -- a cost-cutting move, and a smart one.
Answer these questions:
[1] Does the presence of Ruben Patterson on the roster help the Clippers achieve their goals for success this season?
[2] Does the presence of Ruben Patterson on the roster impede the progress of Al Thornton, a player who plays the same position as Patterson?
[3] Is the presence of Ruben Patterson on the roster worth about $575,000?
"Then why did they pick him up in the first place before the season?!"
Why not? Maybe the addition of Ruben Patterson will be the magic bullet that allows the Clippers to hang out in the #8/#9 race until spring. Then Elton comes back, etc, etc. And you know what? If he doesn't add anything, then we can always cut him before December 15. Nothing lost.
Makes sense?
I know these teams are awash in cash, but it's still over half a million dollars -- which buys a lot of legal work.

Flashback: How Henrik Lundqvist Became The King
In the NY Post, Larry Brooks writes that he bestowed the moniker of "King Henrik" on Henrik Lundqvist early on during his Rangers career.
The first mention, as far as the NY Post archives could pull up, was in a game story on October 16, 2005 which was a 5-1 win over the Thrashers.
"Fast becoming a Broadway folk hero, King Henrik of Sweden took an abbreviated victory lap around the ice while raising his stick and glove in a return salute to the fans who alternately chanted, "Henrik" and "Lundqvist" throughout the match in which the goaltender made several nifty stops among his 28 saves."
In SI, where Hank was on the cover, Brian Cazenevue wrote about how that was the night that NY started to embrace Hank, "But it wasn't until his second game at the Garden, two days later against the Thrashers, when the affection between goalie and city became palpable. Late during a brilliant night in the net, Lundqvist gave up an unlucky, bad-angle goal after it bounced off a teammate's skate. A 4-0 Rangers lead was now 4-1. The crowd stood, but instead of booing, it chanted, in a Gotham-inflected serenade, "Hen-REEK! Hen-REEK!" He was thrown. "That's not for me, is it?" he asked himself. "I just got here." Ten minutes after New York's 5-1 win, he again circled the ice as the game's first star, clapped for the crowd's generosity and tossed his stick into the stands. "
As also noted in many articles from the NY Post archive, Hank was looked at as a highly regarded player in the Rangers system a few years before he made his debut.
9/18/03: "The Rangers cannot at this date bring Henrik Lundqvist, their very highly regarded, 21-year-old Swedish netminder, over to North America. Lundqvist, who last month was selected as the all-star goaltender in a four-nation European tournament, is under contract to Frolunda of the Swedish Elite League. The deadline for bringing players of his contractual status to North America was a loophole-free Aug. 15."
12/26/03: "Defenseman Fedor Tjutin is a high-end prospect. Forwards Dominic Moore, Hugh Jessiman, Garth Murray, Jed Ortmeyer, defenseman Ivan Baranka, and goalies Henrik Lundqvist and the recuperating Dan Blackburn all have a good chance to play."
6/13/04: "The Rangers seem to have been caught in a vise concerning Henrik Lundqvist, the Swedish goaltender the Blueshirts had hoped to sign and have in Hartford for the start of the AHL season. Lundqvist, selected by the Rangers in the seventh round of the 2000 Entry Draft, and who earned all-star honors at the World Championship and a spot on his country's World Cup squad, has one year remaining on his contract with Frolundia of the Swedish Elite League that he's not going to be able to void. We're told that Frolundia asked the Rangers for $450,000 in order to release Lundqvist, but the Blueshirts refused to make the payment. Hence, it appears as though it will be at least one more year before the 22-year-old gets his first North American experience."
6/25/04: "Despite the presence of goaltending prospects Dan Blackburn and Henrik Lundqvist on an otherwise shallow organizational depth chart, the Rangers this week have indicated serious interest in selecting U. of Michigan netminder Alvaro Montoya with the sixth overall pick in tomorrow's NHL Entry Draft, sources have told The Post."
6/27/04: "We think we can win a Stanley Cup with Danny, and that Henrik is the best goaltender in Europe," said Maloney. "Hopefully they're all going to be stars, and they're all going to be assets."

CANTON A North Dakota mans attempt at accepting a plea deal for an alleged DeKalb burglary in July went south Friday in St. Lawrence County Court when he was unable to admit guilt.
Louis J. Massei, 53, a cross-dresser who told County Judge Jerome J. Richards that his legal name in Oregon is Lisa, is charged with the violent class C felony of second-degree burglary and misdemeanor petit larceny with Robert J. Warren Jr., 50, also of North Dakota. The two men, both Level 3 sex offenders, were allegedly found by Warrens estranged cousin, Linda Cutway, leaving her residence in the town of DeKalb when she was returning home on July 6.
As a part of the proposed plea deal in court Friday, Massei agreed to plead guilty to the second-degree burglary charge, confessing to his knowledge that jewelry and other items had been stolen from Ms. Cutways home.
The indictment against Warren was dismissed on Feb. 21 with leave to represent to a second grand jury. He is still being held in St. Lawrence County jail without bail.
As an additional requirement to the proposed plea deal Friday, Massei would have been required to testify truthfully against Warren in grand jury, at trial and in a submitted written statement regarding the events that took place on July 6.
Judge Richards told Massei he also would have to cooperate in the attempted recovery of weapons allegedly stolen later that same day during a second burglary at a Morristown residence.
If Massei complied with the requirements of the plea deal, he would have been able to plea to a reduced class D violent felony of second-degree attempted burglary and would have been sentenced to five years in prison and five years of post-release supervision.
But following his guilty plea and his agreement to all of the requirements, Mr. Massei began to recount the events that unfolded that day in July and said that while he was with Warren when he went to his cousins home, he didnt know that items were stolen from it.
I didnt know those items were in my vehicle until the police told me, Massei told Judge Richards.
What about the ring they found in your rectum? the judge asked him.
State police located Warren and Massei at the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino later that day and while Warren was taken into custody without incident, Mr. Massei said he panicked prior to his apprehension about 20 minutes later at the Comfort Inn, next door to the casino, and he hid the ring in his rectum.
Im not taking your plea, Judge Richards said. Im not going to listen to you not allocute the crime. If you didnt commit the crime we will set it for a hearing and got to trial and see what happens.
Massei now runs the risk of being sentenced to 15 years in prison if convicted on the current burglary charge and a possible consecutive 15 years if he is indicted and convicted in the alleged Morristown burglary.
Massie was returned to St. Lawrence County jail, where he is being held on $150,000 cash bail and $300,000 bond.

A recent CTO presentation I attended addressed the changing security landscape we are facing with consumerization - what I deem to be… (choice of our own devices for corporate and personal use from our smartphones to our tablets. This brought up the pros and cons of the various operating systems out there: iOS, Research In Motion, Android and Windows. The graphic associated with the Apple slide was a glass biosphere that was thriving and completely self-contained – the perfectly controlled environment.
This closed environment comes at a price: consumers have little control over their OS and the possibility of customizing to their needs. Requests for changes and customer gripes are eventually addressed. iPhone users now have MMS, multitasking, copy and paste and a full list of other revisions that also make our tablets and media players better. Unfortunately, one issue they haven't fixed is control over alerts.
Just imagine an area in settings where custom alerts could be set. Different profile modes where the choice of ring, vibrate, volume, and ringtones can be chosen. Apple could take a page out of RIM's book; BlackBerry cell phones have long had this kind of alert controls. And, there is room for improvement that could include location-based profile alerts (example, goes to silent in movie theatre) and the like. Perhaps hanit could connect in those settings to all devices on the platform including the iPad, iPhone, iPod, etc).
No matter if you'd like your Bluetooth turned off when you walk through the door at night or have different rings and notifications based on who is calling or texting, iOS users should have a bit more flexibility with their high-end devices. Moving to an iPhone from RIM and Android was challenging and this writer is still baffled that the handset is simply either "on" or on "vibrate."
Research In Motion certainly isn't competing at the same level as Apple in terms of handsets, accessories and projected sales these days, but this is one area where the Canadian company trumps the iPhone capabilities.

Take your acrylic paintings to new levels of intensity with Golden Fluorescent Heavy Body Acrylics. These brilliant colors are produced from dyes surrounded by a polymer coating. They have the same rich, thick consistency as traditional Golden Heavy Body paints, and retain brushstrokes and knife marks on the canvas.
Because fluorescent colors are so transparent, greater intensity can be achieved by working over a bright white surface.
Note — Fluorescent colors are not lightfast. If a great permanency is desired, we recommend adding a topcoat of Golden MSA Varnish, although it will eliminate the fluorescent "glow" under black light.

The medieval city of Agrigento -- best during spring or autumn when the fields are still green and filled with wildflowers -- is an hour away, and the town of Sciacca, with its charming harbour and thermal spas, is a little further along the coast.
As well as a restaurant with outdoor terraces, the resort has a wellness centre, two swimming pools and two bars. All rooms have plasma TVs, mini bars and air conditioning, as well as a veranda or balcony.
The Sicilian dinner starts with a selection of starters such as arancini and fried aubergines, followed by a pasta course, then

Water bottle recalled after reports of kids tongues' getting stuck
Metal bottle dangerous to kids who got their tongues stuck inside
Published On: Jan 10 2013 11:18:45 AM EST
A company pulled its aluminum water bottle product from the shelves after it posed a danger to children who got their tongues stuck inside the bottle.
PrintGlobe Inc. issued a recall after 11-year-old Demetrice Gibson got his tongue stuck in an aluminum water bottle and was taken to the Intensive Care Unit in Arnold Palmer Hospital. The bottle was surgically removed, but Gibson was forced to use a ventilator after his airway swelled up.
Although Gibson has recovered, similar cases have been reported in Georgia and North Carolina.
PrintGlobe urges other companies to recall similar products until safety improvements can be made.

It's been nearly three years since the Organic Seed Growers and Trade Association (OSGATA), along with a few of its friends and peers, filed a groundbreaking lawsuit against agriculture giant Monsanto in federal district court.
After two unsatisfactory and somewhat contradictory rulings in the lower courts, the Public Patent Foundation, which is serving as the plaintiff 's lead counsel in the case, filed a brief last week with the U.S. Supreme Court.
The brief is an effort to get the high court to hear and reinstate the OSGATA case, which now has a plaintiff group that has swelled to more than 300,000 individuals and 4,500 farms, along with numerous seed businesses and public advocacy groups, all of whom are seeking protection from potential Monsanto patent infringement lawsuits and the damages caused when Monsanto's genetically engineered (GE) pollen contaminates organic or non- GE crops by way of drift or other accidental means. The suit also seeks to invalidate Monsanto's patents on 23 of the company's GE crops.
BW has been reporting on the twists and turns of this important case since it was filed on March 29, 2011. Here's a brief recap of what has transpired to date.
In its original hearing before Judge Naomi Buchwald in federal district court in New York, the court sided with Monsanto's motion to dismiss the case. The court basically found that the plaintiffs couldn't seek protection from Monsanto's patentinfringement lawsuits because the company hadn't actually sued the plaintiffs yet and therefore no actual damage had been done. Apparently, it was Buchwald's opinion that it wasn't enough that Monsanto had sued or settled out of court with more than 600 other farmers for patent infringement and could sue any of the plaintiffs at any time if the wind happened to blow the company's GE pollen in their direction.
OSGATA and the farmers appealed Buchwald's decision to the Court of Appeals in New York. There, a three-judge panel rendered a mixed message in July 2013. While the appeals court ultimately upheld Buchwald's earlier decision, the judges also noted that Monsanto's patented GE crops were quite likely to contaminate nearby non-GE crops.
According to a statement released this December by OSGATA and the Public Patent Foundation, the "three-judge panel at the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., issued a bizarre ruling that plaintiffs are not entitled to bring a lawsuit to protect themselves from Monsanto's transgenic seed patents 'because Monsanto has made binding assurances that it will not take legal action against growers whose crops might inadvertently contain traces of Monsanto biotech genes,' as stated anonymously on the company's website. Farmers find this ruling inconclusive and insufficient to protect their future economic interests since the appeals court readily admitted that contamination from Monsanto's genetically engineered crops is 'inevitable.' This Appellate Court ruling importantly validated that farmers do have a legitimate fear of contamination, something that the court and Monsanto's own attorney, former Solicitor General Seth Waxman, admitted in court during oral arguments. Despite dismissing the farmers' and seed growers' case, the Court of Appeals ruling found the likelihood of contamination significant enough to order by estoppel that Monsanto make good on its promise not to sue farmers that are 'inadvertently contaminated with up to one percent of seeds carrying Monsanto's patented traits.'" While Monsanto's promise not to sue can be viewed as a small victory for the plaintiffs in the case, overall, it was hardly a definitive decision by the appeals court.
Monsanto describes trace amounts as less than 1 percent of a crop. This means that farmers who have more than 1 percent of their crop ruined by Monsanto's blowing GE pollen can still be sued by the company for possessing the company's patented seed traits.
The suit was originally filed because the current interpretation of the law seems to allow the victim to be sued by the perpetrator. When Monsanto's GE pollen trespasses onto a neighboring field, contaminating and ruining a non-GE crop, the neighboring farmer whose crop has been ruined is considered to be in illegal possession of a patented product.
It truly boggles the mind. In a recent interview with BW, OSGATA president and seed grower Jim Gerritsen described it this way: "Can you imagine if a person decided to paint their house purple on a windy day, and as they're spraying their purple paint, it's blowing all over their next-door neighbor's white house. But instead of having to pay the neighbor for ruining their house, the guy with the purple house sues his neighbor for taking some of his purple paint. It makes no sense."
For now, the appeals court decision does nothing to reverse this bizarre legal position afforded to Monsanto and other seed monopolies that have patented traits within living organisms that can be spread inadvertently by nature.
That is why the plaintiffs in this suit are now asking the U.S. Supreme Court to step in and reinstate their case.
When asked if he thinks the plaintiffs could be successful at the Supreme Court, considering its current conservative, pro-corporation majority, Gerritsen answers with cautious optimism. He says, "We've learned not to try and guess how judges are going to act. This is a good case with merit, so we have to hope the Supreme Court will give us the opportunity to present our arguments in a U.S. court. That's all we have been trying to get for three years."
Gerritson says the biggest problem that the plaintiffs have run into is that the judges to date have had no understanding of agriculture. He says that "1 percent is not sufficient protection for farmers to carry on operations. I know farmers who have had more than 1 percent of their crops damaged. I know farmers who have had to abandon growing organic canola, corn and soy beans, not because of the possibility that it could become contaminated [with GMOs] but because of the certainty of contamination."
It's not just the contamination that is affecting farm families. According to Gerritson, in their effort to protect their crops, farmers are having to spend thousands of dollars a year to test their organic and non-GE crops for Monsanto's patented traits. They are also having to leave some of their land unplanted on their side of the fence to act as a buffer against Monsanto's GE crops.
"We're paying property taxes on all of our land," says Gerritson, "but we can't farm all of our land. It's unfair. The polluter that is causing this expense doesn't have to pay anything. Farming is a difficult enough proposition without having to spend money to protect ourselves from Monsanto."
Gerritson sees the fight with Monsanto as something far more than a struggle between farmers and a corporation. He says, "We've spent 37 years as a seed grower. We've got four children who farm with us, two are still in school. We've raised them to believe that this is the greatest country in the world. We've taught them that it is based on a system of justice, a system that works for the common man.
"All we want is to be able to carry on our work of feeding the nation without having to protect ourselves from being sued into bankruptcy. We went to court seeking justice, and we're not going to give up if we lose this case. The problem is still there and it needs a remedy.
"This is not a battle of farmers against Monsanto, but a battle of the American citizenry against Monsanto. It's a battle for access. It's a battle that will determine if people can have good food for their families."
The farm families who account for many of the 300,000 plaintiffs expect the Supreme Court to make a decision on whether to hear their case sometime in 2014.
They are eagerly awaiting their day in court. Respond: email@example.com
Monsanto can't sue a farmer for patent infringement if there is no clearer intent to use their intellectual property, and no organic farmer could use the roundup ready or bt gmo traits, so no organic farmer has been or will be used by them for inadvertent contamination. This whole case is grandstanding, particularly from Gerritsen whose antics are megalomaniacal. From his Occupy stint, to the "humble" farmer photos, to his hitting all the right notes in his American Farmer politaspeak. I worked with him in organic certification circles 30 years ago, and he's in love with listening to his own voice. Pubpat found the right grand stander anyway. Waste of money and time....why they didn't get conventional farmers for plaintiffs is the big question. They're the ones at risk of lawsuits.
Who is this RD below? How dare he insult and try to silence a true American patriot who is speaking true against a corporation of such gigantic, even mythic, devilry?
They're going about it all wrong. Sue Monsanto for crop pollution. Their GE crops are ruining organic non-GE crops.
I hope that justice will be served one day. Big and rich corporations manipulate politicians. We, the consumers, have no power and say. We still don't have labeling laws in the US when most of the other countries have labeling laws for genetically modified foods. I certainly don't want to eat Bt toxin, glyphosate, viral genes, defect proteins, and so forth. Many farmers in Argentina and India suffer mysterious diseases since the introduction of GM farming. I hope that farmers who grow their own seeds win at the end.
considering th supreme court is run by clarens thomas, an ex monsanto exec. I doubt highly he will rule against monsanto

If you are the user of any unlocked mobile device having an AMOLED screen, you too would face certain problems when trying to use the phone in direct sunlight. In other words, it is nearly impossible to read anything on phones such as the HTC Desire that makes use of an AMOLED screen. In a view to combat this downfall of AMOLED screens, Samsung has recently released their new Super AMOLED screens that are not only much thinner, but at the same time can also deliver a much brighter and crispier image when directly held in the sun. Samsung conducted a recent test to determine which was better; whether it was the regular AMOLED display or the Super AMOLED screens releasing a video that pitted two mobile phones against each other, the HTC Desire that had a regular AMOLED screen and the Samsung Galaxy S that had a Super AMOLED screen.
The 7 minute long video shows both devices having their brightness at maximum and the position of the phones is switched around so as to ensure fairness. Under direct sunlight, the HTC mobile is practically worthless as it is nearly impossible to see anything apart from the big clock display on the screen. On the other hand, the Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S Super AMOLED screen had a much clearer display, allowing users the ability of seeing nearly perfectly.
Although neither display would require any backlight, thereby prolonging the battery life of the phone, Samsung's Super AMOLED screen fared better when it came to color saturation and contrast of the two screens. Considering the fact that the Galaxy S has an incredibly large 4 inch screen, it makes sense to have it equipped with a Super AMOLED display having better clarity. Apart from the display of the Galaxy, the phone will support enhanced graphics and be powered by a 1GHz processor.

Studies have found that omega-3 fatty acid is crucial to good health. The nutrient plays an important role in brain and nervous system functioning and can help the body resist the development of heart disease and other conditions. Unfortunately, omega-3 fatty acid is not manufactured by our bodies and must be ingested with food. Worldwide, omega-3 fatty acid deficiencies are rampant, as most people do not consume enough fish and nuts to obtain an adequate supply.
The Nordic Naturals supplement collection was founded by a Norwegian native who had experienced the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for himself when he used fish oils to help overcome a sports-related injury. Inspired to help make quality fish oil from Norway available to people around the globe, he enlisted the help of a team of researchers to develop a dietary supplement collection like no other. Nordic Naturals products are fresher than most fish oil supplements on the market and have a more pleasant taste as a result. In addition, the Nordic Naturals collection has higher purity standards and uses more sustainable production methods.
Change the way you think about fish oil with the Nordic Naturals collection. Featuring oils derived from fish off the coasts of Norway, the line of supplements tastes great and is free of heavy metal contaminants.
Nordic Naturals Complete Omega 3 6 9 Soft Gels combine omega-3 fatty acid with omega 6 fatty acid. The latter nutrient is clinically proven to strengthen the joints, improve skin health and assist with fat burning. Vitamin E is also added to the formula, providing the body with antioxidant protection. The formula is free of mercury and other heavy metals. One bottle contains 120 capsules, a 2-month supply.
Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega Purified Fish Oil receives 70 percent of its total volume from omega-3 fatty acid, making the supplement an anti-aging powerhouse. The formula can help to keep the skin youthful and radiant for years to come and is bolstered by the presence of the free radical-fighting antioxidant vitamin E. One bottle contains 180 soft gel capsules, which feature a delicious lemon taste. At the recommended dosage, one bottle is a 3-month supply.
Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega and CoQ10 1000mg Soft Gels treat the body to a generous dose of omega-3 fatty acids along with coenzyme Q10. This nutrient is praised for its antioxidative abilities, which neutralize free radicals before they have the opportunity to cause cellular damage. The formula is recommended for improving heart health and maintaining a healthy circulatory system. One bottle contains 60 soft gels, a 1-month supply.

Master Supplier is the Comeback Kid
Rest in peace was the requiem earmarked for the master supplier model, having been dismissed by many industry veterans. But it has come back with a bang.
A decade ago the rise of the managed service provider (MSP) and the vendor neutrality phenomenon was slated to crush the master supplier model. And it did. But recent numbers have it rising from the ashes. In a just-published Staffing Industry Analysts survey of large contingent staffing buyers, it was reported that use of master suppliers as a primary supplier management model spiked over the last several years among buyers with spend in the less than $100 million range. In particular, in 2013, 33 percent of buyers with CW programs of less than $20 million in spend used a master supplier as their primary supplier management model, up from just 12 percent in 2009; use also rose notably among buyers in the $20 million to $99 million spend range.
The numbers indicate that the master supplier model can work if done right. What the MSPs found through experience is that there are certain skill sets – light industrial and clerical – that are better handled by the master supplier. These master suppliers are getting direct requisitions and have the relationship with the client. The MSP manages the data and the invoicing process. Often the master supplier is on site working alongside the MSP. The MSP is still in charge – they hire the master suppliers.
"What has been established in the last decade is that it's easier for a master supplier to fulfill certain specialized requirements than have it be a neutral bid every time clients need that resource, be it shift work or short-term needs," says Kersten Buck, director, strategic solutions at SIA.
A quick glance at our lexicon may show some similarities between the two models, but the likenesses are quite superficial. The master supplier firm will always try to fill a client's order (temporary workers), only turning to other suppliers if there is a gap that it cannot meet. Any MSP, on the other hand, is there to administer the program bringing the best resources including suppliers on board. Further, the MSP manages statement-of-work workers, independent contractors, compliance, invoicing, keeps the customer abreast of trends in the market place etc. In the event the client is insistent on vendor neutrality, the MSP will not fulfill any orders.
Little wonder that across all different CW programs the MSP is the top choice for primary management model for many buyers of staffing services. Its elasticity in working with the different models that can best serve the customer has paid off for the master supplier model. At the end of the day, the market evolves according to the user's needs. And if the master supplier model is filling a role efficiently and well under the aegis of the MSP, it will thrive.

Type of Session: Scientific
It has been demonstrated that geographic variations can predict for the clinical behavior and pathologic characteristics of malignant lymphomas. Adult T -cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggressive lymphoma associated with the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-I (HTLV-I). This disease is commonly seen among the population of Southern Japan, the Caribbean, and parts of South America, and can have a very heterogeneous manifestation. The Shimoyama system describes four types of ATLL: acute, lymphomatous, chronic, and smoldering. More recently, the authors have described a primary cutaneous subtype in Perú (EHA 2001: abstract 129). The WHO-EORTC has a classification system for lymphomas that provides some assistance in developing a unified nomenclature. The authors initiated this study to establish the relative frequency of cutaneous lymphomas and to examine the clinical relevance of the new WHO/EORTC classification in a "General Hospital" in Lima-Perú
Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
In this retrospective analysis, MF is the most frequent type of primary cutaneous lymphoma seen at General Hospital, Peru, and has a relatively favorable overall survival at five years. Although ATLL is the second most common form seen, it is associated with a relatively poor prognosis.
Clinical/Scientific Implications
This retrospective, single institution report offers a very interesting perspective of primary and secondary cutaneous lymphoma. By describing the characteristics of a Peruvian patient population, the authors provide an account of the expected distribution and survival outcomes of this relatively rare disease in an endemic population. This information can then potentially serve as a basis for future epidemiologic analyses of both primary and secondary cutaneous lymphomas.

Subject Matter: Physical Science
National Standards: NS.5-8.1, NS.5-8.2
Paper clip
Tuning Fork - Online sources for tuning forks (price range: $10 - $20: www.carolina.com, www.fishersci.com, www.sciencekit.com)
Rubber bands in various sizes
Shoebox or tissue
Frequency – the number of vibrations a sound wave produces each second.
Pitch – the highness or lowness of a sound.
Resonant frequency – an object's natural frequency of vibration, as determined by its physical properties.
Begin the lesson by having students watch the Science Friday Video, "Belting out a Physics Lesson." Discuss with students what they know about sound and how sound travels to our ears. Tell students that they will conduct three sound related experiments to learn more about the nature of sound and vibrations.
Tell students that sounds are caused when an object vibrates. Vibrations travel in the form of invisible sound waves. Ask students if they can think of ways that we can observe vibrations and their effects on other objects.
Have students tape a piece of string to a ping-pong ball and then tape the other side of the string to the edge of a table so that the ping-pong ball hangs freely. Tell students that they are going to gently strike the tuning fork, and then slowly bring the tuning fork near the ping-pong ball. Ask students to explain why the ping-pong ball jumped when gently tapped by the tuning fork.
Ask students if they think sound travels more easily through a solid or a gas. Pair the students into teams of two. Designate one student as the "listener" and the other student as the "sound-maker".
Have the sound-maker drop a paper clip on the table while the listener faces in the opposite direction. Is the sound easy to hear?
Have the listener press one ear against the table while covering the other ear. Have the sound-maker drop the paper clip on the table. Was the sound easier to hear as it traveled through the table?
Repeat the same activity using the tuning fork instead of the paper clip. Instead of dropping the tuning fork on the floor, have students strike the tuning fork and hold it in their hand. Discuss with students the differences heard by using the tuning fork instead of the paper clip.
Have the students exchange roles and repeat steps 2 through 4. Have students discuss which was easier to hear and why.
Review with students the definition of pitch and resonant frequency. Have students use their own voices to give examples of a high-pitched voice and a low-pitched voice.
Have students stretch three rubber bands of varying widths around a shoebox or tissue box with the elastic over the opening. Use the marker to label each rubber band as "A", "B" or "C". If there is not enough space on the rubber band, label the side of the box next to the corresponding rubber band.
Have students create a chart with three rows (labeled rubber band A, B, and C) and three columns (labeled width measurement, predictions and results). In the width column, have the students measure and record the width of each rubber band. In the prediction column, have students number which rubber band they think will have the highest pitch and which will have the lowest pitch, with 1 being the highest pitch and 2 being the lowest pitch. Have students discuss their predictions.
Have students pluck each of the rubber bands and carefully listen to the sounds produced. Have students record their final results on their chart. Ask students to compare and contrast their results. Why did each rubber band make a different sound? Did they observe any differences in the vibrations of the rubber bands? What are some factors that might affect the sounds produced by a particular rubber band? (e.g.,tension, thickness, material, etc.)
What other factors do you think might affect how well sound travels through a medium?
How is sound created in instruments that don't have strings?
How is a shoebox with rubber bands wrapped around it similar to a guitar?
How are sound waves different than light waves?
Experiment further with resonant frequency by collecting several glasses of different shapes or sizes, and gently tapping them with a spoon. The sounds they release are at their individual resonant frequency. Have students organize the glasses from left to right in order of increasing pitch/resonant frequency.
Sound also can be produced by using the air spaces that certain objects have inside. Gather a few different kinds of plastic or glass bottles or jugs, and have students blow air over the top of the opening of each bottle or jug. Describe the kind of sound produced by each one. Have students try to change the sound produced by filling the bottle/jug half full of water. How does the pitch change? What if the bottle/jug is one third full? A quarter full? Two thirds?
Assign students to research a musical instrument. Have them explain how and why their instrument produces a distinctive sound.

State leaders may have passed a budget on time, but it's filled with things that you'll be paying for.
One example is the minimum wage, which is going up over the next three years. But employers aren't paying for the increase. Taxpayers are. How? The state is going to pay for it by giving the money, in the form of tax credits, to employers.
Assemblyman Michael Kearns, D-South Buffalo, voted for the budget in part because he strongly supports raising the minimum wage.
REPORTER: Is it the right thing to do to make taxpayers actually be the ones to foot the bill for the increase?
KEARNS: Well, whether it's the right thing or not, it's going to happen. And, the thing that we're having to look at is, yes, I wish it could have been done a different way. Do people need more money in their pocket? Yes. Are there people out there hurting? Yes.
Next, state leaders voted to keep a two percent surcharge on your utility bills that was supposed to end next year. It's called the 18-a assessment, and it means an extra $540 a year for a typical small business, and an extra $55 a year for the average household.
"The 18-a tax is a huge, huge killer on energy for businesses," Assemblyman David DiPietro, R-East Aurora, said. "That's another one that's just going to put a drain on our economy."
Finally, the budget has more than $400 million in tax breaks for the film and television industry. That includes a tax break to bring NBC's Tonight Show back to New York when Jimmy Fallon reportedly takes it over next year.
Political analyst Bruce Fisher said that, while taxpayers are footing the bill for all of these things, it's mostly the state's wealthiest taxpayers on Wall Street.
"If you're an upstate New York taxpayer, you are getting a huge deal," said Fisher, who teaches at Buffalo State College. "If you're a downstate taxpayer, you're still footing the bill for the rest of the state. That's the bottom line."
To the dismay of many lawmakers, the budget cut $120 million in funding for groups that help people with disabilities. At the same time, it included 54 million of your tax dollars for upgrades for the Buffalo Bills' stadium. It also includes a $350 tax rebate check for middle-class families with a child ages 2-17. The checks, coincidentally, will likely be mailed out just weeks before the 2014 election.
Kearns said he strongly opposed many provisions in the budget.
REPORTER: If there were so many things in this that you disagreed with, why did you vote "yes"?
KEARNS: I voted "yes" because, overall, I think there were some positive things for Western New York, and that's what you have to do as a legislator. You have to weigh the good with the bad. What we need is -- people need jobs. And when you're talking about 20 percent additional funding to improve our roads and our bridges, to me that's important. I know those are people that are going to go out and going to work those jobs.

use & care
To Store: Roll your Manduka PRO with the top side (fabric-like finish) facing outwards. This keeps the corners of the mat flat during practice.
To Break In: The surface texture of the Manduka PRO improves with use. Our customers have found that the best way to "break in" their mat is to use it on a daily basis. Another trick is to sprinkle coarse sea salt over your mat, use just a spritz of water or dampen with a cloth, scrub it down with a sponge, and air dry in the sunshine.
To Clean: We recommend using Manduka Mat Renew or any non-solvent household cleaner and a damp cloth or sponge. Hang to dry in the sunshine. DO NOT clean your mat with a garden hose, put in the bathtub or shower, put it in the washing machine, or use a vacuum cleaner - it may break the machine and ruin your mat!
If you are ever unsure of a cleaning method, feel free to contact us at email@example.com for the best recommendations and advice for cleaning.
green mission
Manduka PRO series yoga mats, designed to last a lifetime (or two), curb the amount of PVC mats that enter landfills every year and reduces overall mat consumption. Also, during the manufacturing of most PVC products, toxic emissions may be released into the air. However, PRO series mats are manufactured through a process that ensures no toxic emissions are released into the atmosphere. The PRO series mats are certified safe for human contact by OEKO-TEX, an environmental certification agency in Europe for the textile industry.

CrockPot Bean Stew Recipe
Day 311.
This could be vegetarian if I had vegetable broth in the house. I did not, so I used chicken broth.
My back is not feeling the best, due to a bend-and-hug that turned into a hug-and-hang. I'm typing this standing up. Every movement is taking more effort than I want, and I'm a wee bit cranky.
I didn't make it the store, and needed to make due with stuff we had in the house. I was certain that I had a bag of green lentils in the pantry, and was totally bummed to realize that the bag actually was filled with split peas. I used them anyway.
The Ingredients.
--2 cups split peas (or lentils!)
--6 cups broth
--1 can kidney beans, rinsed
--1 can black beans, rinsed
--1 potato, chopped
--1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded, and chopped
--4 sad looking green onions, chopped
--3 vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped
--1 cub baby carrots
--handful of broccoli (or other veggies you have lying around)
--1 tsp dill (to be different!)
--1 tsp kosher salt
--1/2 tsp black pepper
--1 1/2 tsp paprika
The Directions.
I used a 6 quart crockpot.
Chop up the vegetables to desired size, and throw them in the pot. Rinse the beans, and add. Add the split peas. Cover with broth, and stir in the spices.
Cook on low for 7-9 hours, or on high for 4-5. Soup tastes better the longer it cooks.
The Verdict.
I had read somewhere that dill enhanced soups and stews and it was an under-utilized spice. I threw some in, and immediately regretted it, but decided to climb back in bed with the heating pad hope for the best.
I think the dill works. It tastes too strong if the broth isn't salty enough---so salt and pepper to taste.
Then you can eat it without feeling like you're eating the guinea pigs alfalfa hay.
My kids fished out the stuff they liked, but mostly ate Toquitos for dinner.
I had Advil.
I'm going to have a big bowl for lunch.

Aw I hope your back feels better. One time I was making the bed and I lifted the mattress to fix the sheets and threw my back out :( I had to lay on the floor for a couple of hours until someone got home to help me up... :(
The soup sounds good though!

Hope your back heals quickly. That is such a terrible pain!

Ah, the dreaded hug-and-hang! Yeeouwch! I feel for you, dear!

It sounds like a big bowl for lunch is exactly what you need (especially if it's a rainy day by you like it is here!)
Hope your back feels better. Let Adam lift the heavy crock pots!
- November 6, 2008 at 8:07 AM
Oh, I hope your back feels better. My hubby has had major back issues since June so I understand how you feel! I hope you feel better soon!
I tried chicken sausage gumbo in the crock the other night. Not bad but next time I leave the rice out while cooking. Looks like oatmeal with red & green flecks. Weirdness!
TAke some meds & feel better soon!

I certainly hope you get to feeling better soon(!), but I must tell you that your post made me laugh loud! You have such a wonderful way with words. :-) And thanks for taking the time to keep your resolution all year long. Thanks to you, I've developed a budding romance with my crockpot. :-)

The hang and hug is the worst. My 2 girls are about the same ages as your two. My 6 year old seems mostly over it. Thanks goodness since she weighs a ton but the 3 1/2 year old thinks it's fantastic. I never knew that I could have a sore back in my 30's, then I had kids... I hope you feel better, I know that pain, it's not fun and the kids don't cut you any slack bacause you don't feel good. Rest up and give yourself a break. Peach Betty in the crockpot maybe or packaged brownies in the crock pot? Feel better!

We like oregano in our bean soups, but I might have to try a bit of dill, now. Hope your back feels better soon!
- November 6, 2008 at 8:27 AM
Oh no, back pain is never fun. Hope you have a good chiropractor! I'm a massage therapist, but would try a good adjustment first.
Anyways hope you feel better! Oh and try some ice packs in between the heat sessions! :)

- FromThe Creek said...
That sounds good and with winter coming quickly...we could all use more soups to try! Get better soon!
- November 6, 2008 at 8:40 AM
Sorry about your back, hope it heals quickly! Back pain is the worst! :(
I must say, I love using dill, but mainly on potato dishes and in the oyster cracker snack mix. I have a container I mixed dried parsley, dill and dried cilantro in to use in potato dishes, soups and casseroles. It is also good on chicken with lemon pepper, lemon juice and garlic italian marinade (or zesty italian dressing) in the crock!
The soup sounds tasty!
- November 6, 2008 at 10:39 AM
truly sorry about your back, crockpot lady...that's a crock! but the hug was probably worth it, no?

Sorry to hear about your back! Much empathy here :(

So sorry to hear about your back. sending out BIG get well wishes...so that you can get happily back to your wonderful dishes!
Thanks for being a LIFESAVER!
off to make one of your Autumn Sausage Cassarole now...

I think that Savory is the most under-used spice. I use it in place of sage, in the same measurements. Goes great with poultry and pork. Sorry to hear you are under the weather.

This looks YUMMY! I hope you feel better soon!

- melanie said...
Oh, the "hug-and-hang!" Thanks for giving a name to this treacherous back breaker. As another with a fickle back, I hope you feel better soon. Ice packs, exercises and a decent chriopractor has usually been helpful for me.
And way to get dinner on despite it all - You deserve a medal!

I just happened upon this blog and as a Mom to 5 children I am SOO excited!!!! Your recipes are fantastic!!!! Hooray!!!

Split peas and lentils have been staples in my kitchen for ages. Thanks for another good recipe. - Margaret

LOVE the blog!
Here's my favorite lentil stew recipe for when you actually do have lentils in the house :)
1 bag of lentils (I think it was a pound?)
4 cups (one carton) chicken stock (low sodium, or use less salt)
4 cups water
3 stalks of celery, diced
2-3 carrots, diced
2 onions, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 tsp salt (more or less to taste)
Fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp of garlic powder
largish pinch of red pepper flakes (more or less to taste)
Directions: Throw everything into the crock, and stir. Cook on low for 10 hours or so. Near the end of the cooking time, give it a stir and add more water or broth if you want it soupier.
Crumble some turkey bacon on type. I like mine with sour cream, my husband likes his with shredded cheddar and hot sauce.

We are going to try this recipe today, I was so happy to come upon this blog! We are always so busy and use the crockpot alot, but I get tired of beef stew and chili!

hope your back is better! when i got to the part about the 'sad looking green onions' i couldn't help but laugh. my husband thought i was losing my mind. lol

- Michele said...
I just wanted to tell you how much I loved this stew! My version of it anyway- I did like you and just used what I had in the house- (1 can of black beans, 1 can of garbanzo beans, 1 cup of yellow split peas and 1 cup of lentils) I didn't have any veggies on hand so I just used an extra couple of potatoes. I skipped the dill and added 1 envelope of good seasons dry Italian dressing mix. So good! Esp. with a little shredded pepper jack on top. :)
- November 24, 2008 at 6:01 AM
- sassysaver said...
What would you recommend for the equivalent if using dry beans for the lentils, 1 can kidney beans, 1 can black beans? And would I need to add extra liquid?

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
A series of near misses coupled with several serious accidents has Utah Highway Patrol officials counting their blessings concerning an Easter weekend which concluded without a single reported highway fatality.
"While we never like to respond to any kind of accident, no one died over Easter weekend that we worked with," stated Utah Highway Patrol Public Information Officer Dan Altenes. "The one accident with the dump truck in Eastern Utah was a miracle, I mean that could have been much worse. We really dodged a bullet there."
The accident Trooper Altenes is referring to is one of three incidents which took place in the Castle Valley this weekend. At about 2 p.m. on April 7, a Ford Explorer collided with a semi-truck hauling frozen food on U.S. Highway 6 near mile marker 251. According to the UHP, the driver of the Explorer required extrication following the collision but did not face serious injury. In fact, no one involved with the accident was transported to area medical facilities for treatment.
"There were many crashes statewide," continued Altenes. "From the Wasatch Front to Castle Valley and the southern portion of the state we were pretty busy. I would say the worst situation involved the gentleman who shot himself. (See related story, this page.) However there was also a rollover on I-15 which involved the ejection of an eight year old child and another rollover on I-70 with six people involved and again everyone survived."
The Interstate 70 rollover also occurred on April 7 at approximately 1:30 p.m. The incident caused major delays by shutting down eastbound holiday traffic starting at milepost 251 for about 30 minutes. According to a report filed by Altenes, a black Ford Ranger with six occupants rolled causing minor to serious injuries to all. The trooper further reported that a medical helicopter was dispatched to transport one victim following the impact.
According to the state trooper, life saving devices such a seat belts and air bags played a major role in the fact that no fatalities were reported over the holiday as more and more motorists consistently use the equipment.
"I think that statistically seat belt use is always on the rise and I feel like drivers become more aware of the dangers surrounding holiday travel a little more with each passing year," said Altenes. "I also think the state's campaign focusing on the dangers of drowsy driving is paying off."
The trooper reported that signs have been strategically placed in both heavily traveled and outlying areas which encourage drivers to pull of and rest at the first sign of fatigue.
"During the holidays especially, people try to push it in order to get where they are going and that can become very dangerous very fast," explained the trooper. "In my opinion, drowsy driving is every bit as dangerous as impaired or distracted driving."
The trooper had no further information concerning this weekend's third incident in the Castle Valley, a chase which culminated in an April 7 suicide attempt in Price.
In that incident, suspect Richard L. McCoy, 42, of Salt Lake City, led Carbon County and UHP troopers on a lengthy car case which reportedly concluded with McCoy sustaining a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head. As of Wednesday, the suspect remains hospitalized at the University of Utah in critical condition. Following the incident, troopers determined that McCoy was wanted on four statewide warrants totaling $80,000 at the time of the incident.
"Incidents involving weapons are always difficult," stated Altenes concerning the case. "However, we were pleased that no one else was hurt during the incident because there was obviously the potential for a lot to go wrong."
While the UHP Trooper did report that 2012's Easter Weekend was a busy one for public safety officials, he was optimistic about the upcoming Summer vacation season.
"With increased traffic there is always the potential for increased accidents but we have some good campaigns out there right now and the public seems to be cooperating. What we would ask moving forward is for everyone to try and keep their speed down and make sure that they give themselves plenty of time to get to their destination. If we can get some help in these areas we could see less accidents this summer," concluded Altenes.
