He's Sweden's Robert Pattinson.
Stellan Skarsgard is in talks to do take after take after take alongside Daniel Craig in David Fincher's adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. He would play Martin Vanger, a suspect in the 40-year-old disappearance of a teenage girl. Hey Variety, tell us what Skarsgard had to say:
"I've met (helmer David) Fincher; I want to work with him; he wants to work me. I've had a concrete offer and now we are in negotiations. The contract is for the period September to March, but I don't know yet when I am supposed to start my part of the film."
This casting makes perfect sense since Skarsgard is Swedish and the film will take place in Sweden. But what of Stellan's son Alexander, who is ripe for the picking due to his recent "True Blood" success. Not to mention Max von Sydow. The man is a God over there.
Give him a call already, Fincher. He's practically begging you.
Looks like NBC learned a lot about bad decision making during Jeff Zucker's tenure. Heck, he is the best at being bad afterall. The network is surely making their former teacher proud with the news that they've closed a deal on "Zombies vs. Vampires."
It's a buddy cop comedy that follows two partners, one a zombie and the other a secret vampire, who are members of a squad dedicated to "zombie crime." Sounds ridiculous. But on the bright side, this will deflect the unfounded, premature hatred "$#@% My Dad Says" has been receiving. (Deadline)
"Shhhh, I have a secret to tell you: Boooooobs."
We only heard about the gestating Vince Vaughn/David O. Russell project Old St. Louis the other day, and now it appears Scarlett Johansson wants to play in the sandbox. The film is about a divorced traveling toy salesman who reconnects with his teen daughter (Chloe Moretz, possibly) after years on the road. Vulture says Scarlett would play "Vaughn's paramour, a secretary who accompanies them on their cross-country sales jaunt." She transcribes memos and services her boss sexually. The latter part is assumed and based solely on my own experience with paramours. Or my friend's…
Vulture also corrects earlier reports that the script is an O. Russell original. It's been the village bicycle for around a decade now, rubbing up against both Steve Pink (High Fidelity) and Allen Loeb's (Wall Street 2) pen. David O. Russell recently completed a extensive rewrite though so maybe this script has finally found her special sugar daddy. We'll see if she ever makes it to production and performs like a good girl.
Please don't smoke that thing while Tony's enjoying his cigar, Shia.
Tony Scott is rumored to be close to directing the adaptation of John Grisham's The Associate. From his successful "lawyers running away from things" series, The Associate is set to star Shia LaBeouf with The Departed's William Monahan on scripting duties.
This isn't confirmed yet and Scott has enough on his plate with Potsdamer Platz, Hell's Angels, and that Chippendales movie, so take the news with a grain of salt. I don't see why they really need a director for this project. John Grisham movies kind of just direct themselves. Do studios really need to pay millions upon millions of dollars to have someone say, "Okay Shia. What you're giving me right now is a light jog. I need a jaunt. Get them legs up. That's good. Okay. Now go get double-crossed by Gene Hackman." (LA Times)
Gandalf don't play that. Today California, tomorrow The Shire.
Steve Austin, or the wrestler formerly known as 'Stone Cold', may not have the same screen experience as the other Expendables, but what he lacks in acting skills, he makes up in kicking ass. How bad-ass is Austin? It took two full days to film his fight scene with Sly Stallone, during which he broke Stallone's neck.

Thanks to Twilight and "True Blood," Hollywood is buying up anything werewolf-related. MMA werewolves, teenaged werewolves, California-based werewolves, it doesn't matter what the werewolves do, as long as they are werewolves. So, it stands to reason that Hollywood would be anxious to desecrate John Landis's classic An American Werewolf In London.
The Weinsteins have just hired The Number 23 scribe Fernley Phillips to drag his butt across the remake's script. This is the Fernley Phillips who named a character "Topsy Kretts." So, yeah. Um. Yeah. The Weinsteins reportedly want to completely depart from Landis's film and give it a more modern feel. That means less gore, more mumbly romance. Which is dumb. Just make your own movie without tarnishing the memory of a horror classic. Besides, with a name like An American Werewolf In London, audiences are going to expect a Madonna biopic. (via LA Times and Bloody Disgusting)
Space prison is much like Earth prison.
Maggie Grace and Luc Besson last worked together on Taken, which Besson produced and co-wrote and Grace starred in as Liam Neeson's stupid daughter who shares cabs with strange Frenchman just because they smile at her. Now Deadline reports that they're reteaming for Lockout, a film with one of the coolest loglines I've heard in a long time:
Guy Pearce is attached to play a man wrongly convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage against the U.S. He's offered his freedom if he can rescue the president's daughter (Grace) from an outer space prison taken over by violent inmates.
He has to save her from a space prison riot? Awesome! Prison riots in general kick-ass, as evidenced by Face/Off, but imagine what one would look like with zero-gravity, once the device in the film that sustains gravity inevitably gets shut off. If they cast Charles S. Dutton, who's familiar with space prison from Alien 3 and Earth prison from real life, this film is sure to blow up bigger than Taken. I can hear Guy Pearce saying the lines now… "I will find you. And I will kill you. In space." Good luck.
Acting is a skill that requires intense focus and an incredible amount of natural talent. Acting like white trash simply requires a lack of focus and an incredible amount of Natural Light. That said, some actors manage the role better than others and that's what I'll be examining today as I present the 12 greatest portrayals of white trash in film.
Nicholas Cage as H.I. McDonnough in Raising Arizona
The road to Ghostbusters 3 has been a turbulent one. We've heard rumors for awhile about a sequel that would catch up with the paranormalists in the modern day, and serve as a passing of the torch to an Apatowized cast. Luckily, one brave man has stood in the way, refusing to allow our childhoods to miscarry in unnecessary 3D. God bless you, Bill Murray.
Now Michael Cera is fighting the good fight. He tells USA Today:
"Ghostbusters is the most influential movie of my childhood," he says. "And I would not want to be the reason that Ghostbusters was all of a sudden bad."
Looks like we'll have to depend on Jesse Eisenberg for that.
"Breakthrough with Tony Robbins" has been canceled after just two episodes, Deadline is reporting. Robbins, a self-help author, success coach, and modern-day medicine man failed to awake the giant within and tap his unlimited power, forcing NBC to scrap the show.
At last report, Robbins was chugging Jack Daniels, eating Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey and watching a 12 hour block of pornography at a Motel 6 in Bakersfield, CA, while repeatedly murmuring to himself that "it's all a big nothing."
July of 2011 is a long way off; almost a year by some estimates. Unfortunately, that's how long we'll have to wait for new episodes of "Breaking Bad." But to help keep fans from resorting to meth use, the show's producers are developing a series of three-to-four minute webisodes to run on the AMC website. According to the show's star, Bryan Cranston, these websiodes will be more than just fluff.
"I for one am eager to make these little interstitials important. I don't want them to be simply filler or recap, but something that actually moves the storyline forward. If we're going to do it, it ought to be a real part of the larger show."
This sounds like a welcome change from the "Battlestar Galactica" websiodes, which consisted mainly of deleted scenes and 15 minutes of Edward James Olmos letting loose on the can. (Deadline)
Here's the trailer for the new season of "The Venture Bros." since I know you guys love Adult Swim so damn much. I've been told it doesn't work for foreigners, or rather, people outside the U.S. If you're in the U.S. but are foreign it should play for you. Unless you're Croatian. Hey, don't blame me.

Yesterday it seemed a little odd when it was announced that Oscar-winning director Davis Guggenheim would direct the upcoming 3D Justin Bieber biopic. And I guess it seemed odd to Guggenheim too, because he has just taken himself off the project according to Deadline. Guggenheim cites "scheduling conflicts" as the reason for his departure, but we all know that's just Hollywood speak for "This diminutive singing child punches people in the balls. I'm not willing to put my balls at risk to work with him."
So as of right now, the very important film is left without a director. I think what Justin needs most is someone who can really identify with him. Someone who knows his music inside and out. Someone with Doritos breath. If only such a person existed.
Little Fockers is in trouble, and Universal Studios is deperately looking for a solution. Earlier in the week, Deadline reported that execs think a week of pickups with the principal cast in September is required to bring the movie closer to a viewable state. They were even at one point considering replacing director Paul Weitz with producer-writer John Hamburg, but that tactic got "rejected after Hamburg visited the set one weekend." He obviously wasn't pleased with the BBQ chicken quesadillas craft services slaved over.
Now Universal believes the answer to their problems comes in the form of a short, Jewish, 73 year-old man named Dustin Hoffman. Vulture reports that the studio is "looking into whether Hoffman might consider a last-minute reprise of his role as Bernie Focker in an effort to funny-up the comedy." Yeah, let's shoe horn in the arrival of Ben Stiller's character's neurotic Jewish father and all will be well. If Dustin doesn't cut it, then we'll fly in Barbra Streisand. If she doesn't work out, we'll add a ton more foreskin jokes, say our prayers, and let the chips fall where they may. Somewhere, some Universal exec has a thousand-yard stare and is tracing the trigger of a revolver with his index finger.
Ah, to be young again.
Hot on the heels of the magical time-travel plot device news, comes word that Hollywood is officially out of ideas. Fox has greenlighted the body swap 29. Based on the book by Adena Halpern, 29 tells the story of a 75-year old grannie who turns 29 again for just one day. She teams up with her granddaughter for an adventure, while her daughter and best friend assume she's been kidnapped and embark on their own mission to save the wrinkled, old coot.
Okay. I'm just gonna put this out there. Nana, stop reading. Okay, no olds reading? Okay, here goes. F*ck old people. I don't need to see their adventures on-screen. I just need to know what to buy them for Christmas (otherwise they're getting gloves again). Stop wasting this genre on old person turns young stories, and give America what it really wants. A husband and wife switch bodies and while the wife/husband is trying her/his best to win the bread for the family, the husband/wife is sitting at home playing with his/her own boobs all day. It would be Hollywood's first approach at a body swap movie grounded in reality. (THR)

Every day for the next two weeks, we're going to feature a cast member from the upcoming film The Expendables. These ten bad-ass actors, who deliver a extensive amount of property damage in the film, are legends in the action movie genre. Today the spotlight is on none other than the Governator himself. Arnold Schwarzenegger only has a small cameo in The Expendables, but his brief appearance completes the circle of legends.

Kurt Russell is Kurt Russell in "Kurt Russell." Coming soon to a theater near you.
Kurt Russell is adding another entry to the "Kurt Russell Plays An Inspirational Coach" sub-genre of film with Touchback. What makes this different from the other times Kurt has hung a whistle around his neck? Magical time travel. Literally, this movie has magical time travel.
From the producer of We Are Marshall, Invincible, The Rookie, and other movies with sepia toned posters, Touchback tells the story of a would-be star athlete whose luck falls apart when he is injured during a high school game. Years later, he is magically transported back to the fateful game that wrecked his career. He must choose between the crummy life he has, for the one he always wanted. Just like when Jim Belushi had to choose between Linda Hamilton and Rene Russo in Mr. Destiny, except this time it's football and there's no Jon Lovitz. (Variety)
In my continued break down of the new fall TV shows where I tell you what to watch and what to skip, after debating lawyer shows last week, I am now taking a peek under the hood of the cop shows.
Never does a season go by on network television where a new cop show or two fails to debut. In fact, the cop show is the most popular TV longform genre in the history of da' tube and this season is keeping the streak alive with a handful of police entries. Don't get too excited, though. Only a couple of them are worth a glance.
WATCH IT: "Hawaii Five-0" (CBS), Mondays at 10 pm (ET)
Kevin Smith is rounding out Red State's cast of "well-known unknowns." He's already cast Michael Parks (who? Oh yeah. That guy.) to play the sadistic minister at the center of the story. Now there's news that a few other folks who you recognize from someplace may join the cast. Dermot Mulroney (About Schmidt), Stephen Root (Office Space), Kyle Gallner (Nightmare On Elm Street remake), Melissa Leo ("Treme"), and Michael Angarano (Gentleman Broncos) are contemplating taking roles in the horror film.
I'm not sure all these people count as unknowns. Dermot Mulroney and Stephen Root are pretty well-accomplished. Root starred on a popular sitcom for five years, and has appeared in over 150 projects. And some would argue that Dermot Mulroney is the most famous Dermot in America, nay, on the Planet Earth. (The Wrap)
Director Stephen Sommers may return for the proposed G.I. Joe sequel, Coming Soon is reporting…because they're obviously bored. Sommers, who directed G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, would join Channing Tatum, who will reprise his role as Captain Duke Hause. Whooop-dee-do!
What is interesting, however, is that Rhett Reese and Paul Wernic, the writers behind Zombieland, are working on the script. This seems to indicate one of two things. Either the next G.I. Joe film will be a vast improvement over the original, or a certain pair of screenwriters are about to be exposed as frauds. Only time will tell.
Got to get tough, Reese and Wernic!
It looks like the second time's the charm for comedian Louie C.K. Collider is reporting that FX has renewed his show, "Louie", for another 13 episode season.
After striking out with his first sitcom, "Lucky Louie", C.K. has found a winning formula. Although "Louie" has been uneven and somewhat clunky, it seems to be getting better as it goes along. Besides, the show could consist of Louie C.K. sh*tting on a bunch of war orphans, and it would still be funnier than 99.9% of the crap on TV.
Like I showed you with Tina Fey's 1995 bank commercial yesterday, we all start somewhere. Paul Rudd's entrancing air guitar solo at this bat mitzvah must have landed him the Josh role in Clueless. He quickly went from playing opposite an air guitar to playing opposite an airhead. I'm here all week, folks! Try the lobster! (BuzzFeed)

Sh*t or get off the pot, Cage. Deadline is reporting that Nicolas Cage is back on Trespass after recently quitting the Joel Schumacker-directed film. He originally signed on to play the kidnapped husband to the kidnapped Nicole Kidman. Then he wanted to play the kidnapper who kidnaps the married couple. Now he's back as the kidnapped husband again. Before production starts on August 30th, Cage is expected to quit two more times, return two more times, take over the kidnapped wife role, and kidnap the actual Nicole Kidman. Production will work around his schedule.
I didn't enjoy Inception as much as Peter Travers did. The action was great and the overall concept was enjoyable, but I didn't find the characters grounded enough to get hooked into. They definitely weren't as fleshed out as Scrooge McDuck. It's come to light today that Christopher Nolan, stealing stealer who steals, stole the plot to Inception from a Scrooge McDuck comic strip.
You'd think a zillionaire like Scrooge McDuck would have his mind trained against intruders entering his subconscious. And how do we know that Donald isn't actually Tom Hardy? God, this comic is such a mindf*ck. (via /Film)
A screening of Inception this past weekend turned into a reeeeeeeaaaaalllllll nightmare for Matthew Vaughn (crickets). Vaughn says that he was sunk when he saw Joseph Gordon-Levitt involved in a zero gravity fistfight because it was too similar to what they were planning to do with X-Men: First Class. The scene in question would feature James McAvoy's Professor X in "dream-space combat" with "spinning rooms and other physics-bending imagery," but now it's been torn from the script as Vaughn's team brainstorms a new set piece. "So it's either leave it in and look as if you're copying or change things. We completely ripped out about 12 pages of the script and the storyboards," commented Vaughn.
Whatever. It's an easy fix. Just set the fight in a bounce castle. Why waste time thinking and writing? They obviously learned nothing from the example set by X-Men 3. (LA Times)

None of Exelon Nuclear's four Mid-Atlantic nuclear energy stations was affected by this afternoon's seismic activity in Virginia, and all continue to operate safely at this time.
Kennett Square, PA - None of Exelon Nuclear's four Mid-Atlantic nuclear energy stations was affected by this afternoon's seismic activity in Virginia, and all continue to operate safely at this time. An "Unusual Event" was declared at each of the stations following the seismic activity, in accordance with plant procedures: Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Three Mile Island Generating Station and Limerick Generating Station in Pennsylvania, and Oyster Creek Generating Station in New Jersey.
Plant equipment continued to function normally at each of the Exelon Nuclear stations. Operators are currently performing "walk-downs" to identify any potential affects from the seismic activity, but no damage to equipment or plant operations has been identified at this time. Each plant continued to operate at normal power level throughout the event and no evacuations or additional safety measures were required.
Nuclear energy plants are designed specifically to withstand the impact of earthquakes and other severe acts of nature. The earthquake, reported to be at a magnitude of 5.9 on the Richter Scale, did not challenge the engineered design of the Exelon facilities.
An "Unusual Event" is the lowest level emergency classifications as determined by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with more than $18 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 490,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

This seems a good time to talk about our memories of Santa. Were you one of the lucky ones who went to a mall or department store and sat on Santa's knee? I made sure my children and even some of my nieces and nephews got to do that.
But I never experienced that Santa. I had drunk Santa. Yep. When I was little, Christmas Eve was pretty exciting, and before bed Santa would show up at our front door. He smelled of liquor and was always red-faced. He laughed a lot and stumbled around our living room before sitting down to join my dad for a few drinks.
I don't remember him saying much to me but I think he did ask what I wanted for Christmas. He'd stay a long time drinking and laughing with my dad, then off he'd go stumbling through the snow to the next house on our street. Many years later I found out it was Mr. Hart, our next-door neighbour playing the part of Santa.

The Massena Central varsity girls basketball team completed a regular season sweep over Class A rival Franklin Academy while Potsdam Central knocked off division-leading Canton in NAC Central matchups on Monday.
Massena 48, FA 43: At the Massena high school gym, the visiting Lady Huskies reversed a 15-9 first-quarter deficit with a 21-9 second-quarter surge before the Lady Raiders put together a 12-4 third-quarter run to regain control. Alisha Jacobs fired through a game-high 21 points, including four three-poitners, while grabbing six rebounds and notching six steals. Steffanie Premo tallied seven points and four steals. Marissa Manley (8 rebounds), Erin Francis and Samanntha Villnave chipped in six points each while Bailie Young accounted for the other two and Dominique Valancius logged five steals.
Janelle Heden paced the Lady Huskies (9-5, 4-6) with 13 points. Erin McDonald netted 10 followed by Meg OConnor with 7, Rachel Lamica with six, Morgan Fountain with five and Emily Marshall with two.
The Lady Raiders (10-7, 9-4) close out the regular season on Thursday at Salmon River.
Massena and FA are already slated to meet again in the Section 10 Class A title game slated for Monday, February 18, at SUNY Potsdams Jerry Welsh Gymnasium.
Potsdam 55, Canton 50: At Potsdam, the Lady Sandstoners got off to a promising start with a 20-13 first-quarter run but the Lady Bears answered with a 22-12 outburst in the second. Potsdam then limited Canton to just 15 second-half point en route to posting only their second win of the season against a Central Division rival.
We have been in most of our games this season but the fourth quarter has always been a problem. We would take a bad shot, make a mistake of get into foul trouble and the other teams would capitalize, said Potsdam coach Larry Hazen after the Stoners did not allow the Bears a three-pointer in the contest.

By KEN LARSONSun Advocate publisher
Every since the mid-to-late 1980s when the threat of the cold war ended, communities began to store their emergency plans in the back room filing cabinet. But following 9-11 these plans began to surface and now, over two years later there isn't a day that goes by when we don't hear about the threat of a terrorist attack or the importance of updating community emergency preparedness.
We must admit that to a degree we live in a "it will never happen to me syndrome." I think that it's just part of our makeup. And it seldom does happen. I can count the number of disasters I have been involved in on one hand. But it only takes one to change a family or devastate a community.
I remember the day Amtrack derailed in Northern Montana and left 87 people bleeding and injured along a remote stretch of Highway 2. The confusion of that rescue will forever be etched in my mind. And in 1992 when living in Klamath Falls, Ore. a 6.5 earthquake struck just outside the city. Buildings collapsed, people were killed, electricity was out and panic ran rampart as the emergency crews began the cleanup and rescue efforts.
Do you think the people in the World Trade centers had any thought that planes would come crashing through there walls when they were getting dressed that morning in September? Or how about the commuter trains in Madrid a couple months ago. Do you think they had any idea that bombs would soon destroy their way of getting to work? Or even this week's floods in Illinois? We have no idea what type of a disaster will strike, nor when it will happen.
It seems as though disasters come in many different forms in this day and age. We are all familiar with the natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, fires or severe wind storms. These could strike at anytime.
The transporting of toxic material, either by train or truck, through our county, day and night, is one of my biggest fears.
And what about disease? According to local health officials we are long overdue for a severe outbreak of a flu epidemic. Some of these strains have not even been identified yet. We are warned daily about the terrorist chatter and what might be happening even as you read this.
I believe its a matter of when, not if, terrorists will strike again in America. Will it be in a large stadium, against a dam, a skyscraper, an airport, or a train station? How about our gas lines or power plants? Or maybe it could be even as subtle as putting toxic or poisonous material in the ventilation systems or food supplies of small town nursing homes or hospitals just to test their theories?
I am not a paranoid person nor do I worry about these possibilities on a regular basis. But the potential of what groups of terrorists are capable of pulling off becomes more real every day.
The table talk workshop that I reported on last week was another eye opener for me on the importance of continuing the efforts of developing emergency plans. We could be alone in dealing with an emergency for at least 72 hours should such an event strike the area. We must be more self reliant.
Locally CERT volunteers are constantly being trained and once certified they will be easily identified in their green helmets and vests. They are being taught basic first aid and various levels of search and rescue. These people are coming forward from neighborhoods all over the county to be trained as first respondents. The CERT groups are trained to do the greatest good for the greatest numbers. Once on a scene they divide the victims based on their need for help.
I didn't realize that 13.3 percent of Carbon county's residents were over 65 years old, which adds up to over 2600 people. And another 4263 people have been identified as people with special needs or disabilities. This means that over 7000 people or around 35 percent of our community could potentially need special treatment should an evacuation be necessary. Currently a data base is being created to identify these people with special needs. A geographical information system is being developed to tie into this data base so that addresses will be easy to find, and their special problems will be noted.
As we move forward it is important to have evacuation plans in place, not only for our homes, schools, churches but businesses as well.
What plans should we have for communications if power goes out and our phone systems are powered by electricity?
Should we be having community drills or seminars discussing methods of warning the public if an emergency should occur?
This is a huge issue and many people are working step by step to identify the concerns, create emergency plans, and network within the communities to partner with other agencies and individuals. If something happens and we are not ready, then it will be too late.
So many things have changed in our communities since the last large push for emergency plans, designed during the cold war era. Communication systems are vastly different, and we rely on computers for almost everything.
Most people think it is just the fire and police forces that form emergency response teams, but the health departments in the state are quickly becoming an important partner in this race for time. All agencies of the government are working closer together to analyze the needs and develop systems.
But the final component to all these plans is you. We all must be aware, involved, interested and willing to step to the plate to understand the dangers and start working towards the solutions, one at a time.

This 2nd edition of the national enduro in Spain named "Big Ride" has taken place in Tui last week-end. Last year Jérôme had already taken part of 2 Big Ride races (Cercedilla and Tui) and thanks to the invitation of the organizer, Guti Martin, we would like to go back to Spain.
This edition was much harder than last year, because we have 5 stages instead of 4 and around 42km pedaling with more than 1800 meters elevation. The trails were super fun and created by the team of Guti, and we were very happy to enjoy this quality of race. International riders also attended the race : Ben Cruz (US), José Borges (Portugal), and Aidan Bishop (UK) and Antonio Perez (Spain). The level was high and Jerome has to push hard to stay in front.
"I don't make mistakes and I have good legs : it was a good training for the next World Series in Val d'Allos in 2 weeks" said Jérome. He took the win with 28 secondes advanced in front of José Borges who was strong and Ben Cruz finished the podium. "It was a hard day, but I am very happy to finish and enjoy an after-race with all the riders watching together the World Cup DH in Val di Sole in live ! Nice week-end!"
Good job for the team :
Jey 1st scratch.
Ben 3rd scratch.
and Pauline 1st in the girl category!

Type of Session: Scientific
The standard of care for treatment of early stage lung cancer is surgery with or without chemotherapy. HDR-BT is an alternative option for patients with contraindications to surgery. This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of HDR-BT in non-operable endobronchial carcinoma patients.
Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
This large, multicenter, retrospective study detailed the use of high-dose rate brachytherapy as a single modality in patients with non-obstructing endobronchial lung cancers who were not amenable to either surgery or radiation. This study involves a very narrow therapeutic window, as is reflected in the relatively long time period required to treat nearly 200 patients. A majority of the patients had received prior radiation or surgery secondary to lung cancer, and it is unclear what classified the patients in the study group to be considered unfit for additional surgery or conformal radiation. More data is required to determine what patient factors might predict for treatment-related complications. Further study is certainly warranted with this modality, and it would be particularly interesting to determine how high-dose rate brachytherapy compares to other local modalities that would theoretically be offered as options to this patient population, such as photodynamic therapy and repeated laser excision.

To begin with any use or knowledge about organic growing, should be with, well, the beginning. So here is a brief history concerning organic growing methods.
Sir Albert Howard (1873-1947) was the founder of the organic farming movement. He worked as an agricultural investigator in India for some 25 years and to make a long story short, he noticed the crops and livestock in the adjacent villagers fields were much healthier than the crops and livestock in the government fields. He checked it out and discovered the reasons why and copied and improved on their methods. He wrote many books and papers concerning the subject.
J.I. Rodale (1898-1971) an American, became a follower of Sir Albert Howard's philosophy. He started Rodale press in 1930. In 1942 he launched a controversial magazine called Organic Gardening, which in now the most widely read gardening magazine in the country. He also founded the non profit Soil and Health Foundation now known as the Rodale Institute. An advocate of preventative health care he started Prevention Magazine in 1950 and today it is the nations largest health magazine.
His son, Robert Rodale (1930-1990), carried on his fathers work with many other magazines, among them are: Bicycling, Runners World, Backpacker, American Woodworker, Men's Health and The New Farm. The Rodale Book Division produces some 50 books each year on health, fitness, homes and gardens.
In 1980,with interest in the organic method growing,the United States Department of Agriculture responded with a detailed definition of organic farming. It reads "A production system which avoids or largely excludes the use of synthetically compounded fertilizers, pesticides, growth regulators, and livestock feed additives."
To the maximum extent possible organic farming systems rely upon crop rotation, green manure, off farm organic wastes, mechanical cultivation, mineral bearing rocks, (which Utah is rich in), and aspects of biological pest control to maintain soil productivity and tilth, to supply plant nutrients, and to control insects and other pests.
Robert Rodale coined the term regenerative and sustainable agriculture. In 1988 the United States Department of Agriculture started a program to fund research on a program it named Low Input Sustainable Agriculture.
Today, in order to get the maximum yields and bring out the full genetic potential of vegetables organic growers foliar feed once a week using one ounce of liquid seaweed and one ounce of fish emulsion per gallon of water and they always use a spreader sticker in the mix to prevent run off.
Organic growers have found that plants can absorb sprays three to five times more readily through the leaves than through their roots. The over spray from the treatment goes into the soil and stimulates vital microbial life. The fact that plants readily absorb through the leaves makes a good case for not using chemicals to grow plants.

Men's Basketball Falls To Colonials
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- George Washington closed on a 10-0 run to defeat No. 20 Creighton, 60-53, in the third-place game of the Wooden Legacy on Sunday afternoon in Anaheim, Calif.
Creighton dropped to 5-2 with its second straight loss, while George Washington is now 6-1.
George Washington came out the aggressor in the opening minutes, building an 18-10 lead by the second media timeout. The Colonials did it thanks to 7-of-11 shooting early, as well as an 8-3 edge on the glass.
Creighton would fall behind by 13 points on a pair of occasions before scoring the final five of the period to trail 32-24. CU got five points each from seniors Grant Gibbs and Ethan Wragge in the first half, while GW was paced by eight points from Kevin Larsen.
Creighton turned the run into a 10-0 flurry, scoring the first five points after intermission to cut the GW lead to 32-29 with 17 minutes to play. CU would have three chances to tie or go ahead, but could not convert before a Maurice Creek bucket returned GW's lead to four and Kethan Savage's breakaway dunk made it a 42-34 lead a short time later.
With strong defense and a more consistent offense, Creighton would rally. A three-pointer by Gibbs and long two-pointer by Wragge got the Jays within three, and Gibbs would then drive the lane for a one-handed jam to get CU within one point. Wragge would follow with a trey to give CU its first lead, 44-42 with 6:16 left, and force a Colonials timeout.
GW went ahead 48-47 before an Austin Chatman lay-up and a second Gibbs dunk made it 51-48 with 2:42 left. The teams then traded baskets, including a Jahenns Manigat stickback witih 2:15 left, setting up GW's game-ending run.
Joe McDonald began the burst with a lay-up before Chatman would miss on a drive. GW then went ahead on a score inside from Kevin Larsen, making it 54-53 with 1:05 left. Gibbs would have his shot with 23 seconds left get blocked, only to have Chatman chase down the offensive board in the backcourt. He would drive back to the lane, only to have it swiped by Maurice Creek, who was then fouled.
Creek sank a pair of foul shots to put GW up three points with 14.0 seconds left. The Bluejays were then whistled for an offensive foul on the inbounds pass, ruining any chance at a tying basket. The Colonials would sink 6-of-6 free throws in the final 15 seconds overall to ice the win.
Wragge paced Creighton with 16 points to go with a career-best nine rebounds, as the senior sank four three-pointers as well as his first two-pointer of the year. Gibbs added 12 points for the Jays, as well. Creighton had season-lows in nearly every offensive category, making 33.9 percent from the field and 28 percent from three-point land.
George Washington was paced by 14 points from Larsen, while McDonald and Isaiah Armwood both finished with 12 each. George Washington shot 39.3 percent from the floor, including 4-of-9 from deep, and turned 13 Bluejay turnovers into 17 points.
Creighton will remain in Orange County before its next game, a Tuesday night tilt at Long Beach State that is scheduled for a 9 pm Central tip. That game will not be televised, but will air on-line at http://www.bigwest.org/tv.
NOTES: Ethan Wragge started the second half in place of Will Artino ... Creighton's 24-point first half was its lowest scoring half of the season ...Ethan Wragge's nine rebounds were a career-high ...Doug McDermott's streak of eight straight 20-point games was halted, as was his stretch of 18 straight games in double-figures. He finished with seven points ... It was the first meeting between the schools ... Geoffrey Groselle threw down his first dunk as a Bluejay late in the first half, while Grant Gibbs had a pair of dunks in the second half.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Editor's Note: This is one of a series of articles about the history of the Sun Advocate and the county it covers as a newspaper. These articles are being prepared in commemoration of the 120th anniversary of the newspaper's birth in 1891.
While 1948 was a big political year for Carbon (see "A trifecta of local, state and national politics," Sun Advocate, April 26, 2011), other developments in the county produced headlines as well. Intertwined in those headlines were advancements in newspaper technology at the Sun Advocate.
Since the war ended three years before, people who lived in Dragerton (now East Carbon) had been concerned about what was going to happen to the homes they lived in. The government built town was sold in 1947 to Geneva Steel and over 700 occupied homes became the property of the steel giant. Some wondered how long they would get to live there.
That was answered in September when the company began selling homes to the people who lived in them. The first people to sign on the dotted line to buy a home were Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Bon. The sales to the occupants progressed quickly as the company divested itself of the dwellings. By November two thirds of the homes had been sold as Geneva and Kaiser Steel continued to make improvements to the community at large. At the time the housing was considered to be some of the best in the state for a mining community.
At the same time Kaiser Steel was having Utah Construction build new homes in Sunnydale. The outlook for the steel business was great; the world had been basically bombed flat by the war and the only real steel production left was in the western hemisphere. The company was in the process of building 60 new homes in the area.
In March, however, a strike by coal miners idled most of the major mines, putting 3600 employees out of work. The strike was over pensions with the union saying that the companies had "dishonored" the current contract by not agreeing to follow the pension plans. The walkout lasted over a month with workers returning to their jobs on April 21 following the issuing of a work request by John L. Lewis, who had already been charged with contempt of court for not asking miners to return when ordered to do so.
In May a murder south of Price stole the headlines in the paper for the summer. In the May 27 issue of the Sun Advocate it was reported that the "lifeless" body of Max Lopez of Hiawatha was found inside a car about five miles from town on Highway 10. Another man, Joe Herrera, also of Hiawatha, was in the car at the time of the shooting and told police when they arrived that he knew the attackers who had been in another car when they shot Lopez. He told the police that the two were Joe Trajillo and Joe Mandragon, both of Castle Gate. As soon as the officers were told that they set a message by radio from their cars and reported it to headquarters. A blockade outside of Price was set up and soon the stoppage netted the pair. They and Herrera were booked into jail for questioning.
On June 3, Trujillo was arraigned on a first degree murder charges as the investigation progressed. He was remanded without bail. At the time of the murder no weapon was found, although by the shell casings it was assumed to be a .32 caliber pistol. However by the time of the arraignment a weapon had been discovered. At the time the paper did not report where it was found. After some legal wrangling the date of the trial was set for July 19.
The wheels of the court system turned quickly in this case and on July 24 the jury found Trujillo guilty of murder. The verdict came after only four hours of deliberation and was returned to the judge just before midnight. The jury did not make any recommendations, and on July 28 Judge Fred Keller meted out the death penalty for Trujillo's actions. At the time he set the time of the execution for Sept. 11 just after sunrise. However, based on later reports the execution did not take place in 1948, and in fact never happened. Lopez's name is not listed on those executed over the years by the state prison.
The crime also brought a first for the Sun Advocate. It presented a chance for the first real crime photos that were ever printed in the paper. Photos of Trujillo being escorted from the jail and a photo of the car where Lopez died were featured in the paper on June 3.
Around the same time as that the murder verdict was decided another tragedy hit the area as a father and his small son died in the waters of Cleveland Reservoir when a row boat they were in sank and they could not make it to shore.
The incident took place on July 17 when John Brinkerhoff and his eight year old son Johnny found an old boat by the shore and went out into the reservoir about 150 feet. The boat started going down and Mr. Brinkerhoff started to swim back to shore with his son on his back. The boy slipped under and Brinkerhoff tried a couple of times to retrieve the youth from the water, but on the third try he too did not surface The drowing was witnessed by his wife and a friend, Henry Lutz.
Lutz tried to rescue them, and was within 25 feet of where they went down but couldn't find them. Three hours later the bodies were recovered.
Brinkerhoff left behind a wife and six children.
The Gooseberry Project was in the news again too. While the year before the Bureau of Reclamation said that the project was totally dead, in 1948 they started to renege on that statement. An article that appeared in the August 5 issue of the Sun Advocate pointed out that officials had recently stated that "construction of the Gooseberry project in Utah be deferred until costs are lower or a greater economic need appears."
That statement, along with others, opened the door to more years of litigation and conflict that is still not resolved to this day.
The year finished off with another disappointment, but one that Carbon county took pride in. Just the year before, Carbon High sports had been banished from playing the large Wasatch Front schools in regular season competition for what was termed "many reasons." They, for the most part, ended up playing smaller schools around the state even though they were in the Class A division in terms of size (in those days there were just Class A and Class B schools, with the dividing mark at around 800 students). But at the end of the season there were two teams that stood to play for the state championship: Carbon (6-0-2, they allowed ties in those days) and Jordan (8-0-0) who had only one team score on them all season. However Carbon had outscored their opponents in the regular season 202 to 27 while Jordan hand only managed 170 points while letting South score six points on them during their game.
In the previous 10 years Jordan and Weber had seven of the 10 championships with Jordan having four itself. Carbon owned only the 1938 banner.
On Nov. 13 the Beetdiggers and the Dinosaurs met in a clash that looked as if it could be fairly even. However, Jordan was in control the entire game, despite a hopeful first half. By the end of the contest Jordan had triumphed 28-0.
But Carbon was proud. It was the best finish in the 10 years since the last championship and they had two all-staters named from their team, Gene Plaga and George D'Ambrosio.

I would like to answer Fred Richardson's letter (Nov. 20, Sun Advocate) as to why anyone would vote for President Obama.
I am a liberal and I got all my liberalism from the most liberal man that ever lived. I would like to introduce him to you; his name is Jesus Christ.
When the rich man asked him how he could enter the kingdom of heaven Jesus told him to sell everything he had, give the money to the poor and to follow him. He ended that verse by saying "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than have a rich man to get into heaven." Jesus often told the rich men you that they had their reward.
I would like Fred to name anyone that has made a statement even close to as liberal as that. If I had any objections to Obama it is he has been to willing to compromise. I hope he does not back down again on cancelling the Bush administrations tax cuts for the rich and for corporations.
The man I admire more than any other living person is Jon Huntsman Sr. I understand he donated a hundred million dollars to start the Huntsman Cancer Institute and is giving 80 percent of his earnings to it and eventually all of his estate as well. I am sure if he asked Christ that same question he would tell him he has a place reserved for him.
Obama got some good bills passed in his first two years, but even with a filibuster despite the majority being Democrats, he had to have a few moderate Republicans cross over to get it done.
Romney claimed with his business experience he could eliminate unemployment, but as a venture capitalist he was in the business of causing unemployment. They called it downsizing which was the first thing they do, including getting rid of most of the employees' benefits (including their pensions). If his business experience was eliminating jobs, how does that qualify him to create jobs? I'm sure the Chinese would be grateful for those jobs.
I have always believed in a graduated income tax. I worked for the railroad for 36 years. In 1977 I went from a switch foreman in the yard and went on the main line. My gross pay increased 50 percent, but no one heard me complain that my net pay only increased 40 percent.
I could probably name a lot of other reasons I voted for Obama, but I mostly did it because I am a liberal Christian.

[Intro: 2Pac]
Under pressure
Yeah, baby
When the pressure's on
Thug life
When it's on it's on
[Verse 1: 2Pac]
One of these days I'll, learn
Don't fuck with trick ass niggas
Cause they, turn
Into bitch ass niggas
I'm sick of being stuck in the county jail
My niggas clown, bring a pound when they're posting bail
Smoking blunts in the driveway
My 4-5 screaming" Fuck tha police" won't fly away
Thug 'til I die, you wonder why I'm made this way
I wasn't turned out, I was raised this way
I'm thinking these, are the dreams of a young teen
Scheme, and stack green over crack fiends
One time can't hold me
One of these days, we gotta bust back for the homies
Locked down in the penitentiary
I'll finally lose my mind if the pigs succeed
I'm stressed, smoking weed and nicotine
But what a nigga really need is Thorozine
Right before I die, I'll be cursing the law
Reincarnated bitch, even worse than before
My 4-4's giving payback
My underhanded plan to get them niggas while they laid back
And Big Stretch hit the scene with the mini 14
Serving suckas like dope fiends and lead the whole team
[Interlude: 2Pac]
Under pressure, nigga
That's right
[Verse 2: Stretch]
Never run, throw your gun in the air, oh yeah
Nigga bust ain't no time to spare
Called tha ruffest mothafucker and we fuck shit up
And with the stainless steel razors, boy, we cut shit up
Flash and blast a nigga with the quickness
Cock the 4-pound motherfucker when I spit this and rip this
Damn, my mind is in the depths of hell
But when I'm walking on tha street kid my name rings bells
And I never fell, nigga, I stand too tall
I'm just a thug motherfucker who was born to brawl
Giving my all, some niggas wanna bring it to me
So I'ma sell my cocaine, and lay their ass down, G
[Interlude: Stretch]
Under Pressure
[Verse 3: 2Pac]
(Yeah, look here though)
Running wild, I never smiled as a juvenile
Even now, I keep a frown when I come around
Don't ask me about the past, it was all bad
Shots blasted, will I last in the wrong path?
In the dark is where my heart saw the most grief
Motherfuckas is getting shanked over gold teeth
Am I sick cause I'm addicted to get splifted?
Watching stupid ass tricks get lifted
Nothing's changed cause in the game it's a steady aim
Fuck friends, cause when in danger them niggas change
Puff weed and stuff G's in my sock, G
Car keys and Hennessy, where the Glock be?
Times passing, will I last here another day?
I put my gun away and grab my AK
It's getten hectic, I can't call it
House full of alcoholics
Now a nigga's under pressure
[Interlude: 2Pac]
Yeah, that's right
Under Pressure, we're niggas under pressure
[Outro x11: 2Pac & Stretch]
When the pressure's on it's a hit
Ski mask, extra Gats, bring the clips
Don't nobody move when we walk the streets
They stay silent, cause talk is cheap

Not really the same. For example, Luby's Restaurant is very popular here in Texas, (I think there are only a handful outside the state, all in the south) and a popular dish is the Luann Platter – which is the niece's name. As a state, we are also obsessed with high school football and the Dallas Cowboys.

I recently moved to Providence after spending 5 years in NYC. You could call it a little bit of a transition haha, but it ended up working out really well. Plus, I go to Boston when I need my city fill.
I love to laugh and joke around and learn new things. I'm not one that is quick to judge and I tend to see the good in people. I have a soft spot for beautiful smiles and great laughs. I am well over the bar-hopping phase of life and would much rather have a nice low-key night and relaxing dinner. I love dogs and each day go back and forth on whether or not I should get one! My sister has the cutest goldendoodle that I take care 1 or 2 days a week (pictures are above). So I guess that will have to suffice for now.
I'm really happy with where I am in life and am now ready to meet someone special :) I am looking for someone that I can have fun with in day-to-day life (i.e. sharing meals, seeing movies, going on walks, etc) and someone that has depth and wants to do right and has compassion for others.
If you think we'd get along, I'd love to hear from you!

Any woman who has more than one child can tell you how different each child is from birth. You are born with your personality intact. The Color Code is based on your natural, innate personality type. Of course, people may change over time, but your Core Color will always remain the same.
Sometimes it is difficult to choose from the four options given, but there is usually one that fits better than the rest, or at least one that you could see yourself as more so than the others. If you're still unsure, try asking someone who knows you well, such as a parent or sibling. They can give clarity on areas of your personality that you may not notice.
