Your 2014 VSL Cubs!
The VSL Cubs begin their 68-game 2014 season tomorrow morning with a game against the VSL Phillies.
The Venezuelan Summer League (known as the "VSL") was established as an MLB affiliated "Foreign Rookie League" in 1997, and was designed for players from countries in South and Central America like Venezuela, Panama, Nicaragua, Colombia, Brazil, and Curacao. Players from the Dominican Republic can play in the VSL, although most Dominican players who haven't yet graduated to North American minor leagues play in the Dominican Summer League (DSL). Also, U. S. and Canadian players cannot play in a "Foreign Rookie League" (the VSL and DSL), and no more than two Puerto Rican players can be on a VSL team's roster.
The VSL started with just six teams, but by 2001 the league had doubled in size to twelve teams. However, the league struggled to survive the first decade of the 21st century, and after the Pirates and Reds transferred their VSL affiliates to the Dominican Summer League after the 2011 season (creating DSL Pirates #2 and a second DSL Reds team known as "DSL Rojos"), there were only four VSL teams left (VSL Rays, VSL Phillies, VSL Tigers, and VSL Mariners).
The Cubs established their first "Foreigh Rookie League" team (DSL Cubs) in the Dominican Summer League (DSL) in 1997 (they had been providing players to various DSL co-op teams 1991-96), but the Cubs did not participate in the VSL until 2007, when a Cubs/Twins co-op team existed for just one season, The Cubs then established a second DSL team (DSL Cubs #2) in 2008 as the VSL Cubs/Twins co-op team folded. The Cubs operated two DSL teams (DSL Cubs #1 and DSL Cubs #2) for five sesaons (2008-12), and Venezuelan players deemed not yet ready for the AZL Cubs (Arizona Rookie League) were assigned to one of the two DSL affiliates. But then (somewhat surprisingly) the Cubs decided to transfer their second DSL team (DSL Cubs #2) to the VSL (locating the team in Los Guayos), creating a "VSL Cubs" team in 2013 that added a 5th team to the VSL (bucking the recent trend of MLB clubs either folding their VSL team or transferring their VSL team to the DSL).
The 2014 Venezuelan Summer League (VSL) regular season runs from May 12th through August 4th, followed by a post-season championship playoff between the 1st and 2nd place teams (since it's only a five-team league, there are no "divisions"). Because the VSL season begins and ends about three weeks prior to the beginning and end of the DSL season (the 2014 DSL season does not open until May 31st, but it runs until the last week of August), last year the Cubs transferred two of their better VSL players (VSL batting champion Roney Alcala and INF Bryant Flete) from the VSL Cubs to the DSL Cubs after the VSL playoffs concluded, and Flete and Alcala remained with the DSL Cubs through the conclusion of the DSL playoffs.
Because there are currently only five teams in the VSL, the regular season schedule follows a very specific pattern that is peculiar to the VSL. Each VSL team plays four games in a row against the four other VSL teams in exactly the same order and then the team has a day off (a bye). For example, the VSL Cubs play the VSL Phillies-VSL Rays-VSL Mariners-VSL Tigers (always in that sequence) and then have a day off. This sequence repeats throughout the VSL regular season.
Eleven members of the 2013 VSL Cubs (RHPs Adbert Alzolay, Francisco Carrillo, Jesus Castillo, Greyfer Eregua, and Victor Salazar, LHP Alberto Diaz, catcher Eufran Vargas, 1B-3B Roney Alcala, 2B-SS Bryant Flete, and outfielders Arnaldo Calero and Ricardo Marcano) plus 17-year old Venezuelan SS Gleyber Torres and 17-year old Colombian RHP Erling Moreno (who are making their pro debut in 2014) are presently at Extended Spring Training in Mesa, and because most (if not all) of them will likely be remaining in the U. S. this summer, the 2014 VSL Cubs will feature a number of newly-signed players.
Only 17 of the 33 players presently assigned to the VSL Cubs Active List were on the squad last season. One player (18-year old LHP Carlos Rodriguez) spent the 2013 season with the AZL Cubs, and there are 15 players on the roster who are new to the Cubs organization, including 13 professional "rookies" and two others (RHPs Jesus Arias and Julio Sanchez) who were signed after being released by other MLB organizations. Infielder Humberto Garcia is presently on the VSL Cubs roster, but he may end up with the DSL Cubs since he is Dominican. (Garcia was signed by the Cubs last May after being released by the White Sox, and was assigned to the VSL Cubs last season only because the newly-formed VSL Cubs were short of infielders, but that should not be a problem this season).
One of the more interesting names on the VSL Cubs 2014 roster is Danny Gutierrez, supposedly a 17-year old hot-shot shortstop prospect signed by the Cubs to a substantial bonus in 2012 (reported to be $185K at the time) but who did not make his pro debut (as had been expected) in 2013. Now it turns out that Gutierrez is (apparently) actually 23 years old (at least according to information provided by the Cubs).
So here is the 2014 VSL Cubs Active Roster. Both the VSL Cubs Reserve List and Active List roster limit is 35. 30 players can be designated "active" for any one game (at least 10 of the 30 must be pitchers), The players listed as "INACTIVE" on the roster have either been released or will start the season on the 7-day or 60-day DL.

At some point I wonder how
At some point I wonder how long TheoCorp can keep saying, well, the kids are coming, the kids are coming. Year three and the record promises, right now, to be among the MLB's worst. Couldn't they have done at least something to get a real outfield? I'm not much of an armchair GM, I just know that if I was paying good money as an owner I'd be wanting better results than this charade.
Please don't give me the shit about the farm system being fixed. It's fixed when the kids are on the big league team and the team isn't in last place anymore.
What kind of consequences do
What kind of consequences do you foresee?
based on what's going on with
based on what's going on with attendance and a general lack of fans giving a shit on the internet (cubs boards seem to be slowing down every year, even the popular ones)...it seems the damage is done.
that said, this is the cubs and they're in the large chicago market. as soon as things get interesting the fans (old and new) will return in droves quite quickly.
Rob had a good point last
Rob had a good point last time I ranted that echoed what you are saying about them coming back but I am saying that the kids, the future fans, they won't come back because they simply won't be Cubs fans, and there's nothing to come back to. Older fans will come back, casual fans will come back, and if they actually win a World Series new ones will be created. But if this lingers on then all bets are off. And we all can't just assume that a world series is in the cards. We really don't know that. Lots of teams have good prospects.
Pretty fair odds on the No. 1
Pretty fair odds on the No. 1 pick in 2015, I'd say. Houston will definitely contend, but I don't expect them to drop off at the trade deadline the way the Cubs will when they trade Ninja and possibly Jackson.
The best we can hope for is
The best we can hope for is that Jackson keeps pitching decently. He's not dominating but he's got a steady past other than last year and he's durable. If Ninja doesn't bring Garza times two I'll be pissed.
But honestly, I'm getting tired of this game of how high can they draft.
If they can get somebody to
If they can get somebody to pay Jackson's $13M/per for 2015 and 2016, that would essentially pay for the next two years of ninja. After this coming draft and next years top 3 draft pick, the farm system should be in the top 3, if not number 1. I say fuck it, give him the Homer Bailey contract if you can unload Jackson on some sucker.
Jackson is certainly more
Jackson is certainly more replaceable than Samardzija. Ninja's never put it together for a whole season, as many have noted, but his stuff along with the potential to command it doesn't come along much. I'm dreading the Cubs trying to build a rotation with not a single pitcher on the staff that looks like a #1 or #2, which is what they'd have to do if they traded Samardzija.
If Ninja would sign for the
If Ninja would sign for the Homer Bailey contract, he'd be signed already. I think he's holding out for a Hamels/Felix contract, especially from this shitshow.
I don't think any pitcher is
I don't think any pitcher is worth that kind of money. They just get hurt too often. The awfulness will continue, and they'll trade him for a basketful of prospects.
Meanwhile, all the kids who were 8 when Hendry was in his last year are 12 now, and all the kids who were 12 are...you get the idea. The Cubs are in trouble as a franchise if they think they can ride on the existing fan base. The kids are the future, and I can't imagine the kids are flocking to their iPad to watch this team. If this keeps going, everyone in Chicago younger than 16 is going to have an Abreu jersey.
The kids can't flock to their
The kids can't flock to their iPads to watch the Cubs unless they are several states away from the Cubs...
Also, comparing Hamels and
Also, comparing Hamels and Felix to Samardzija is comical, at best.
Yep, you offer him #2 or #3 money. If some team wants to pay him ace money (and some team probably will), then fine, let him walk. It may be painful, and he may put in some good innings (also, overpaid innings) somewhere else.
i-cubs score 12 runs...baez

If we use money saved by getting rid of Jackson to pay Samardzija, what money are we going to use to pay Jackson's replacement?
He is not earning his salary, but anyone that replaces him will cost 10 million per year anyway, and not likely to be any better.
Jackson can be easily
Jackson can be easily replaced by someone making $500k-$6M. He is nothing but an eater of innings for $13M.
I'm trying to imagine a Cubs
I'm trying to imagine a Cubs rotation sans Samardzija, Jackson, and Hammel. So far I have Travis Wood, Jake Arrieta, and Chris Rusin. The next in line would by Kyle Hendricks, Justin Grimm, and Neil Ramirez, with Pierce Johnson and CJ Edwards some distance behind developmentally. That's fairly slim pickings--the Cubs would have to get at least 2 young SP who slot in at AAA level or MLB ready in those trades to have any chance of being competitive in the next two years or so, and they'd really need 1 or 2 pitchers to come in via those trades who have ace and/or #2 potential, because Wood and Arrieta are 3/4 types and Rusin, Hendricks, and Grimm are #5/swingman types.
Don't think anyone is going
Don't think anyone is going to bite on Jackson. Otherwise similar to trading Garza/Feldman last season.
Let's just get this over with. Make the trades now and get a head start on getting a better draft pick. Send Samardzija to the Yankees for catching prospect Gary Sanchez and a couple of quality pitching prospects. McCann is blocking Sanchez (a top 50 prospect) so he is available. Cubs don't have a legitimate catching prospect. Yankees rotation is Tanaka, ???????.
Added benefit the Cubs could then trade Welly and further improve this season's odds of "beating" the Astros for the race to #1 (draft pick).
probably need a third team
probably need a third team with Yanks, Cubs probably want pitching prospects as you mentioned and Yanks are sorely lacking at the moment.
Similar to trading Garza
Similar to trading Garza/Feldman last season, except they still had Samardzija at that point. The selling off has a cumulative effect across multiple seasons, and it doesn't take long to deplete your MLB team of top of the rotation arms when you've only got two of them anyway.
Of course, if CJ Edwards proves durable and they get a #1/#2 type for Samardzija who doesn't fall victim to injury or wildness or something, that solves that problem. I just get nervous because it seems like we waited a long time between decent starting pitching prospects. Wood, Prior, Z in the late 90s-early 2000s, then nobody really until Samardzija who still hasn't settled in. Lots of disappointing pitching prospects in between.
"Cubs don't have a legitimate
"Cubs don't have a legitimate catching prospect."
Maybe not, but a couple of guys look interesting at this early stage of the season. Rafael Lopez might be having a breakout year (.994 OPS) at Tenn, while KC's Will Remillard (.966 OPS) has done nothing but hit as a pro. Lopez hits lefty, which is a nice feature.

Recent comments
listening on ESPN 1000, caller says Bill Welke will be the home plate ump today. Supposedly his reputation is for having an even bigger strike zone than last night's Phil Cuzzi. Some of the issues with bad umpiring come from an inconsistent strike zone. Hoping at least for consistency. Last night's called strike on David Ross was outright embarrassing for Cuzzi.
That might work out in favor of Kyle Hendricks, who benefits much from a large strike zone.
it's kind of mesmerizing to watch
should Theo add some Ted Abernathy videos for minor league pitching coordinator's use?
sadly, Ted passed away in 2004 from complications of Alzheimers. I always loved the Cub bullpen trio of Phil Regan, Ted Abernathy and Hank Aguirre. As a kid, I even worked on both Phil Regan (very quirky delivery) and Ted Abernathy (extreme submarine) imitations when throwing a rubber ball against a wall. It wasn't a good imitation unless I could scrape my knuckles off the ground. I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for submariners.
HAGSAG: Chris Pieters was sent to instructs to develop his hitting, bunting, and outfield play (he is already a decent first-baseman).
Pieters is tall and rangy , a "long-strider" in the same mold as Trey Martin and Rashad Crawford. He is a very patient hitter (unusual for a hitter with his lack of experience) and has an outstanding (almost uncanny) eye at the plate, and he is a fast runner with unusually good baserunning instincts, and he is a good basestealer, too.
I doubt we will see Pedro in any more "high leverage" situations this series. With Hendricks and the pen today, we need Bryant-Rizzo-Castro to get going ASAP.
One funny thing to see before the game was the two submariner pitchers (David Berg and Corbin Hoffner) playing catch with each other. Both pitchers throw "submarine" even when they play catch, and it's kind of mesmerizing to watch, even for the other players.
CUBSTER: One of the points of emphasis at "basic" Instructs this year was teaching the position players the art of baserunning and base-stealing, like getting a good primary and seconday lead, reading the pitcher, cutting bases sharply, and different ways to slide to maximize the baserunner's chance to arrive safely.
Brooksbaseball.net has some interesting stats/graphs on pitch and strike zones and you can dial up individual games/pitchers. I'd love to see some comments from readers who can interpret this better than I can. I thought the Ump was really inconsistent with a very wide zone. Does this info seem to match up with my eyeball perception? Also, looking at the graphs, Lackey was not throwing as many pitches below the K-zone (certainly more above) while Lester was clearly getting his pitches down and not many above.
As I was fearing in my post yesterday, Maddon keeps trotting Strop out against the Redbirds and he constantly fails. I understand the psychology behind this, but in a series where there is a finite lock on who moves on, why does he keep riding the wrong horse?
AZ Phil: Agree, this must have been a really fun game to watch. There was a lot of base stealing going on. Are the pitchers not holding runners or is the catching still a work in progress?
Cuzzi has long been known as having the biggest strike zone among all umpires.
AZ Phil, give me a scouting report on Chris Pieters since he has become a 1B/OF.
I think it's probably hard to adjust to an ump's zone mid-game, as least for hitters. Pitchers can locate to an ump's zone, but hitters have minimal time to react.
But, whatever. Umps are going to miss calls. Let's beat up on the non-Lackey starters.
Watched a little of Mets-Dodgers.
Jason deGrom -- oh, my.
Cubs 3-4-5 hitters are 0-21 so far in the post-season.
Let's change that in a big effin' way tomorrow, boys.
Considering how players reacted it seemed pretty accurate high and wide (to righties), but not so accurate low and in. I thought the strike zone by the ump was awful, but it was consistent and the Cubs never adjusted.
Rizzo and Bryant need to have good at bats. They are really looking outclassed in these two games.
that game sounds fun as hell.

Formed in 1937, the American Public Works Association (APWA) is the only professional organization that caters exclusively to public works professionals.
Almost 30,000 public works directors, city engineers, fleet managers, property and equipment superintendents, utilities managers, community development directors, transportation managers, park directors, county officials, and other titles belong to the organization. Since membership's open to any person, agency, or company interested in the profession, there are also a lot of engineering consultants and manufacturers as well.
Public Works magazine features APWA's Top 10 Leaders in a cover story every year. We asked this year's crop what their favorite technology is, and their answers will surprise you.
In addition to certifications in stormwater management and infrastructure inspector, APWA offers a Certified Public Fleet Professional (CPFP) designation.
If you're looking for continuing education units (CEUs), APWA's got that covered as well.
I'm writing from Toronto, where more than 5,000 people are gathered for the first time in more than 25 years for APWA's annual convention. This is THE show for public works professionals who want to earn CEUs and/or kick the tires on the latest technology and equipment, featuring:
One last thing: Public Works isn't affiliated with APWA, which publishes The APWA Reporter, but we wholeheartedly support the association's mission. With 63 chapters in North America (including eight in Canada), you don't have to travel far to find support from people facing the same challenges. I always learn something when I attend one of the many excellent tours, seminars, and other events put on by the APWA's Chicago Metro Chapter.

Phsar Leu, Siem Reap
Hwy. No. 6 east of town, Siem Reap, Cambodia.
About Phsar Leu, Siem Reap
Phsar Leu, the original Upper Market, a wooden structure, was torn down to be replaced by the "New Big Upper Market", located along National Road 6 on the outskirts of Siem Reap. Phsar Leu is the largest market in Siem Reap Province and is a favourite of local city slickers for grocery shopping, everyday clothes, kitchenware, textiles by the meter (both imports and Khmer silk), camping equipment for out of town excursions, spare parts for motorbikes and cars, electronics, home improvements tools and just about anything. Some visitors may venture here for an occasional snapshot of the "Real Cambodia", as guidebooks in the know would advertise. A bit of sign language and our tips on Khmer idioms should be adequate for straightforward purchases.

With people still buzzing about "Hitchcock" star Jessica Biel's October wedding to Justin Timberlake, Jessica's revealing to Elle magazine the best part of being a newlywed, her buzzed-about pink wedding dress and Justin's unexpected domestic side.
On what it means to be married, Jessica says it's all about now having a constant companion.
"It means always having someone there to open the pickle jar … to share the ups and downs with, have adventures with. Someone to go swimming naked with. That kind of thing … Honeymooning is the best thing about being a newlywed. I wish I could honeymoon forever," she says.
Pics: Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel's Most Romantic Moments
Jessica's unique pink Giambattista Valli wedding dress was one of the most-talked about aspects of the A-list couple's romantic Italian ceremony, and she reveals her inspiration behind the choice.
"I wanted the dress to be very romantic and feminine and a shape that I very rarely wear. I have never been crazy about all-white wedding dresses, for me at least," she dishes. "[Giambattista Valli] had created that same fabric in a fuchsia-and-pink combination for a dress in a previous collection, and I asked him if he could create that same pattern in a white combination, and he suggested pink. It was a bit of a leap of faith at the time, but it turned out better than I could have ever imagined. [Putting it on], I felt like I had made the right choice. I felt elegant. And it moved like a dream."
And what's one thing people don't know about her multi-talented husband?
According to Jessica, he makes a mean pie.
"He bakes pies. He's Southern, so he's got all this influence from his grandma. He does a three-layer pie … and blueberry crunch cake, which is pretty unbelievable," she reveals. "It doesn't happen all that often, thank God. Otherwise, it would be a big problem."

I previously posted a question where my jQuery wasn't working when a HREF was specified in a link (original question here).
The most common suggested answer was to use preventDefault, but for some reason, this doesn't work if there's a hash/anchor in the HREF; so for example if the URL is "http://www.google.com", it prevents the default behaviour and runs the jQuery as expected, but if it's "http://www.google.co.uk#whatever", it ignores the preventDefault and follows the link.
The link I'm using has a target (indeed, is only a target within the same page). Is there a workaround for this quirky behaviour?

As built or as not to built, this is the question?
Were doing an addition to our house, mainly a new kitchen. But included in our wish list is a set of french doors and we must move the washer and dryer to a new location outside the main house. I had a highly recommend contractor come over to take a look. After going over our "wish list" he said the way to proceed is to make a "as built" set of drawings of the property with set-backs, electrical, etc. He does the drawings work himself and charges $50 an hour. Says the entire preliminary drawing could cost up to approx. $5000. My head hurt for awhile and I am just not clear on the best way to proceed. I know we cannot afford all the work we want to get done. I know we are willing to work with cabinetry from places such as IKEA or Home Depot, if that really makes a difference. I know I want to have everything up to code and work with permits on the job. I know my head hurts. I started my own overview house plan using Google SketchUp and the help of this very forum, but it is very preliminary and I am not sure if I am up to making it a complete drawing with gas, elec, plumb, etc that would be necessary for the final job drawings. What I am asking for is help on how to wrap my head around this project. Am I being naive to think that this can all be done without spending 5K on drawings alone? What else am I missing here?? Thanks, Henry

Why would a person want a mortgage if they didn't need it?
Assuming that you could buy a house outright, for cash, why would you get a mortgage? A conversation got me researching this recently. Many articles suggest that if the interest rate is low, a mortgage is better. Yet I can't for the life of me figure out why paying low interest is better than paying no interest. A person with a 30-year mortgage usually ends up paying about 2 times the principal. School me, financial mefites. FYI: this is just a curiosity. I'm in no position to actually do this in reality.

Small Mystery Critter in Our House...Help!

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Just months after the soybean genome was sequenced, a Purdue University scientist has discovered a long-sought gene that controls the plant's main stem growth and could lead to the creation of new types of soybean plants that will allow producers to incorporate desired characteristics into their local varieties.
Jianxin Ma (Jen-Shin Ma), an assistant professor of agronomy, used the research model plant Arabidopsis thaliana to discover the soybean gene that controls whether the plant's stem continues to grow after flowering. The find is a significant key to diversifying the types of soybeans growers can produce all over the world.
"The approach that we used in this study proves to be promising for rapid gene discovery and characterization in soybean," said Ma, whose findings were published Monday (April 26) in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. "With the genomic resources and information available, we spent only six months pinpointing and confirming the candidate gene - the time it takes to grow one generation of soybean."
Soybean plants generally fall into two categories: determinate plants whose main stem tips stop growing after flowering, and indeterminate plants that continue main stem growth after flowering. In the United States, indeterminate soybeans are grown in the northern states, while determinate are grown in the southern states, Ma said. A northern U.S. grower who may want the characteristics found only in a type of determinate soybean would not be able to successfully grow a determinant cultivar in the north.
Ma was able compare the gene known to control Arabidopsis thaliana's stem growth pattern with the soybean genome to identify four soybean candidate genes. Those genes were then sequenced in a sample of different families of soybeans, including Glycine soja, a wild type of soybean; Glycine max landraces, which were varieties developed through selection

Report: Rob Gronkowski's fourth arm surgery coming Monday
Feels like we've been talking about Rob Gronkowski a lot, huh? And not in the good, fun, Sorry-for-Partying kind of way. Gronk's been dealing with his broken arm for months now and is reportedly scheduled to undergo a fourth surgery on his arm Monday.
Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald reports that Gronk will go under the knife at 2 p.m. Monday at Massachusetts General Hospital.
This surgery comes on the heels of a report that Gronkowski's also dealing with a back injury that could cause him to face surgery as well.
Monday's operation isn't a surprise, because we've been hearing for a while it would happen. But the date of the arm surgery was up in the air.
Also up in the air is the infection in Gronk's arm. It's caused repeated issues as he tries to recover from the injury, and the timetable for the tight end's return may hinge upon the procedure.
If Gronkowski's arm is infection-free come Monday afternoon, he'll be in much better shape to get back on the field in a timely manner.
Guregian reports that cultures from Gronk's arm will be taken during the surgery. If the cultures grow, that indicates an infection and then, per Guregian, it's "back to square one, with the possibility of missed games creeping into the equation."
That's the nightmare situation for the Patriots and one they hope to have more clarity on by Monday afternoon.

Clinical implications of atypical glandular cells of undetermined significance, favor endometrial origin
The Bethesda System recommends qualifying atypical glandular cells with regard to their possible origin: endocervical versus endometrial. This study was undertaken to determine the clinical significance of atypical glandular cells of undetermined significance that favor an endometrial origin (AGUS-EM).METHODSA computer search identified 62 cervicovaginal smears (5.25% of all smears classified as AGUS) with a diagnosis of AGUS-EM in the files of Shared Cytopathology Laboratory of New York University Medical Center/Bellevue Hospital Medical Center between January 1995 and December 1999. The patients ranged in age from 29 years to 88 years (mean age, 53 years). Thirty-four patients were postmenopausal (55%), and 5 patients were on hormonal replacement therapy. Follow-up was available for 56 patients (90%); 45 patients (73%) underwent biopsy, and 11 patients (17%) had repeat cervicovaginal smears. Six patients were lost to follow-up.RESULTSAmong patients who underwent biopsy, 14 patients (31%) had a clinically significant uterine lesions, including 6 (13%) endometrial adenocarcinomas, 5 (11%) endometrial hyperplasias, and 3 (7%) squamous lesions (2 high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and 1 squamous cell carcinoma). Ten of 11 patients with significant endometrial pathology findings were postmenopausal. The remaining 31 patients had benign pathology results, which included chronic cervicitis, endometritis, endometrial polyps, microglandular hyperplasia, and tubal metaplasia. Among the patients with repeat cervicovaginal smears, one patient had atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance; the remaining patients were within normal limits.CONCLUSIONS
Approximately one-third of women with a diagnosis of AGUS-EM had a significant uterine lesion on subsequent biopsy; the majority of these lesions were endometrial in origin. Patients with a diagnosis of AGUS-EM on cervicovaginal smears should be followed closely, and endometrial curettage or biopsy should be included in their initial work-up.

ABSTRACT: To determine the frequency of detecting tubal metaplasia of the endocervix (TME) in cervico-vaginal cytological smears, we retrospectively reviewed 450 out of 2,371 cervico-vaginal Pap smears, selected by chance, with no glandular abnormality at the first examination (150 from women using intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD), 150 from sterilized women by bilateral tubal ligation (BTL); and 150 from women using no or other contraceptive methods). TME was seen in 16.7% of the patients using IUD; 70.1% of the patients submitted to BTL; and 49.0% of the patients from the last group. Atypical glandular cells on cervical cytology are a problem for clinicians and pathologists alike. The differential diagnosis of endocervical glandular abnormalities including TME is discussed.
Article: Abnormal uterine bleeding.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Abnormal uterine bleeding occurs across the entire age spectrum. Pregnancy, infection, birth-control methods, psychogenic causes, organic pathology, endocrine disorders, blood dyscrasias, systemic diseases and dysfunctional uterine bleeding are considered in the differential diagnosis. While the historical questions are similar regardless of age, the diagnostic methods, differential diagnosis and the management plan vary within each age bracket. Pregnancy-related disorders, infection, birth-control methods and psychogenic factors are the most common etiologies in younger women, but endocrine, systemic and hematologic disorders must be considered. In the middle years, irregular bleeding frequently occurs due to perimenopausal ovarian failure. With postmenopausal bleeding, endometrial carcinoma must always be ruled out. Treatment consists of correcting the underlying disorder. If no organic cause is identified, hormonal therapy or more invasive procedures are used.The Nurse Practitioner 05/1989; 14(4):40, 43-4, 47 passim.
Article: Atypical glandular cells[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The 2001 Bethesda System has radically altered the classification of glandular abnormalities. The recognition of the cytologic features of atypical glandular cells on cervicovaginal smears is important because a significant number of patients will be found to have an underlying cancerous or dysplastic lesion of the exocervix, endocervix, or endometrium. The differential diagnosis of AGC on cytology is diverse and accurate classification is necessary because the most appropriate form of follow-up depends on the specific subcategorization of the atypical glandular cells. Because the level of interobserver agreement in the diagnosis of AGC is poor, effective communication between cytopathologists and clinicians is essential to accurately triage these patients. This article should help the cytology practitioner by providing a comprehensive review of the approach to the interpretation, clinical significance, histopathologic correlation, and management of patients who have atypical glandular cells on gynecologic cytology specimens.Clinics in Laboratory Medicine 10/2003; 23(3):633-57.

Isocaloric practical diets containing 35, 40 and 45% were used in the first experiment and 40 and 45% protein in the second one. In both trials, shrimps fed with 45% protein diet reached the highest growths. The nutritional factors assessed were always better in that organisms fed with the diet of higher protein content. The histological analysis of the hepatopancreas in shrimp feds with diets containing lower protein levels showed degeneration and necrosis of the hepatopancreatic tubes.

It appears that TNA had a well written plan all along for Rockstar Spud. They purposely made him an annoying character when he first made his debut in the company.

The creative department was then deftly able to slowly convert his character into a lovable underdog that could be a serious threat in the ring.

Watch Frigid Weather Immediately Turn Boiling Water Into Snow [VIDEO]
Unless you've been living in an extremely well-insulated cave, you know it's insanely cold across the country.
Unless you've been living in an extremely well-insulated cave, you know it's insanely cold across the country.
Old Man winter has packed a seriously cold punch lately. A "polar vortex" of frigid, dense air has blasted much of the US with frigid, sub-zero temperatures and it's not over yet. Central New Yorkers, we have a Wind Chill Warning in effect from midnight tonight until 7pm Tuesday night.
Have you ever been blasted with the snow coming from the roof of the car in front of you? Have you ever been unfortunate enough to be traveling behind one of these rude motorists? A friend (who commutes through Connecticut) and I were having a spirited conversation about following a snow covered car and getting blasted with their deliberate white out and he said "It's like someone throwing things out the window at you".
Governor Andrew Cuomo has declared a Statewide state of emergency as Winter Storm Hercules has started bringing snow, sub-zero temperatures and high winds across New York State.
Those of us living in the Northeast are feeling the impact of winter storm Hercules which is bringing bitter cold and snow to millions of Americans.
Central New York is under a Winter Storm Warning that could bring us 6-12 inches of snow. So what should you do when you're expecting this much snow? Make snow angels of course. Grab your phone and show off your little ones making snow angels right here. Then when you're back indoors warming up, grab some hot chocolate and check out the snow angel photos.
Looking for a subtle way to make a statement of love? Try making a heart in the snow with your car's tire tracks.
It's starting to look a lot like a slippery Christmas after a massive ice storm caused extensive damage to trees, power lines and poles.
As I look outside at the snow and check the temperature here in CNY (it's about 34 right now) it's hard to believe it's still fall. At least for one more day. Winter arrives this weekend. Yup, the winter solstice of 2013 starts tomorrow, December 21st.
A unique phenomenon occurred over Utica and portions of Central New York this week, tall pillars of light strove upward into the night sky.
The National Weather Service in Marquette, Michigan shared a radar image that is usually seen over a tropical ocean. A 'snowicane' formed over Lake Superior recently.
A chilling record has been set. Antarctica has recorded the coldest temperature ever on earth. How cold? Colder than North Dakota, Siberia or Alaska.

The girls triumphed in the FA National Futsal Finals in Birmingham.
Futsal is mainly played indoors on a smaller playing area with a smaller-size football.
1,200 teams originally entered the competition and qualified through a regional qualifying campaign.
Ten regional winners went on to represent their region in the finals at the Birmingham Futsal Arena for the right to be crowned National Champions.
Spurs Under-14s team won every game in the group stages and then completed a memorable day by winning their semi-final and then the final by a comprehensive scoreline of 5-1.
Courtney Parsons led the way with a hat-trick with a double from Giorgina Baldwin completing the scoring.
Coach Ian Biggadike said: "The girls were magnificent at the finals and the quality of football they displayed was a real credit to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.
"I am really proud of every single one of our players and I know their parents feel the same way. To be champions of England is a great feeling and a magnificent achievement, something we will remember forever."
