CD49d expression is an independent predictor of overall
survival in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia:
a prognostic parameter with therapeutic potential
Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a common lymphoid
malignancy with a variable clinical course. While the majority
of patients with CLL are asymptomatic and have early stage
disease at the time of diagnosis, some experience an aggressive
disease course that leads to premature death while others live
for decades and never require therapy. A number of recently
identified prognostic parameters, including ZAP-70, IGHV
mutation status, CD38 and cytogenetic abnormalities, can
predict which early stage patients will experience early disease
progression (Shanafelt et al, 2004).
The ideal prognostic parameter would not only identify
patients at risk for worse clinical outcome, but also be relevant
to disease biology and provide a therapeutic target. Her2-Neu
overexpression in breast cancer patients is one example of
a prognostic parameter associated with aggressive disease
behaviour that can be directly targeted to improve clinical
outcomes (Slamon et al, 2001) (Romond et al, 2005).
Although the novel prognostic parameters identified for CLL
are linked to leukaemic cell biology, the reason these charac-
teristics are associated with worse clinical outcome is poorly
understood and none are currently a direct target of available
anti-neoplastic therapies.
Although CLL B cells relentlessly accumulate and are
resistant to cell death in vivo, these cells rapidly become
apoptotic on in vitro culture, suggesting that survival signals in
the in vivo environment prevent apoptosis (Kay et al, 2007)
(Ghia et al, 2002) (Caligaris-Cappio, 2003). Potentially sup-
portive interactions between CLL B cells and various nurturing

In vitro studies have demonstrated that surface expression of CD49d on
chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) B cells facilitates leukaemic cell–
stromal interactions by binding to fibronectin. This interaction reduces both
spontaneous and drug-induced apoptosis. The present study measured
CD49d expression by flow cytometry in a cohort of untreated CLL patients
previously accrued to a prospective observational study and evaluated the
relationship with overall survival (OS). Among the 158 CLL patients tested,
the percentage of leukaemic B cells expressing CD49d ranged from 0 to
100%. When all risk factors were treated as continuous variables, CD49d
expression showed moderate correlation with expression of ZAP-70
(r = 0Æ54; P < 0Æ0001) and CD38 (r = 0Æ58; P < 0Æ0001) but not % IGHV
mutation. As a continuous variable, CD49d expression strongly correlated
with OS (P < 0Æ0001). Recursive partitioning analysis suggested the 45%
threshold of CD49d expression best predicted OS. Multivariate analysis,
controlling for disease stage, ZAP-70, IGHV status and fluorescent in situ
hybridization defects identified CD49d as an independent predictor of OS
and was a better predictor of clinical outcome than ZAP-70, IGHV, or
cytogenetics. This observational cohort study suggests that CLL B-cell
expression of CD49d is an easily measurable and independent predictor of
OS and CD49d expression in CLL. Importantly, anti-CD49d antibodies are
already approved for treatment of other human diseases. Clinical testing of
anti-CD49d therapy in CLL appears warranted.

environments are complex and involve cytokine-mediated
effects, cell–cell interactions, and cell–extracellular matrix
interactions. As the bone marrow is invariably infiltrated by
CLL B cells and is typically the site of relapse in patients who
achieve treatment-induced complete remission, it is believed
this tissue site provides a critical nurturing environment for
CLL B cells in vivo (Caligaris-Cappio, 2003).
A limited number of studies have begun to explore specific
interactions between the CLL B-cell and its environment.
A variety of chemokines, such as stromal derived factor-1
(SDF1), are thought to attract leukaemic B cells to the marrow
micro-environment by binding to receptors on the CLL B-cell
surface (e.g. CXCR4) (Burger et al, 1999, 2000, 2001; Till et al,
2002). Once in the marrow, physical contact between stromal
elements and leukaemic cells have been shown to promote CLL
B-cell survival (Panayiotidis et al, 1996; Lagneaux et al, 1998;
Burger et al, 1999, 2000). This protective effect is mediated in
part through integrins on CLL B cells [e.g. alpha4 beta1
integrin (also known as very late antigen-4, VLA-4, CD49d)
(Lagneaux et al, 1999)] and ligands [e.g. vascular cell adhesion
molecule 1 (VCAM1) and fibronectin] expressed on marrow
stromal cells (de la Fuente et al, 1999; Plate et al, 2000; Burger
et al, 2001; Pedersen et al, 2002).
CD49d (integrin alpha 4) plays a critical role in leucocyte
trafficking, activation, and survival, and also facilitates inter-
actions between leucocytes and stromal cells found in the
marrow or germinal center of lymphoid follicles via VCAM-1
and fibronectin (Rose et al, 2002). Notably, in addition to
these adhesion functions, CD49d can also serve as a signalling
receptor that influences B-cell survival via upregulation of Bcl-
2 family members (Koopman et al, 1994; Hayashida et al,
2000). Other studies suggest that CD49d expression on CLL B
cells is lower than normal B cells (Baldini et al, 1992; Eksioglu-
Demiralp et al, 1996; Lucio et al, 1998), differs from other low
grade B-cell malignancies (Baldini et al, 1992; Pinto et al, 1993;
Eksioglu-Demiralp et al, 1996; Csanaky et al, 1997; Lucio et al,
1998), demonstrates intra-patient variation (Baldini et al,
1992; Eksioglu-Demiralp et al, 1996; Vincent et al, 1996;
Sembries et al, 1999; Zucchetto et al, 2006a), and is associated
with disease stage and the presence of lymphadenopathy
(Eksioglu-Demiralp et al, 1996; Behr et al, 1998; Lucio et al,
1998; Till et al, 2002).
While several investigators have demonstrated that signal-
ling via CD49d in CLL B cells reduces both spontaneous and
drug-induced apoptosis in vitro (de la Fuente et al, 1999, 2002)
little is known about the prognostic importance of CD49d in
patients with CLL. We and others recently reported that
CD49d gene (ITGA4) expression in CLL B cells correlates with
CD38 expression (Durig et al, 2003) (Pittner et al, 2005) and
have confirmed the correlation between CD49d and CD38 in
CLL B cells at the protein level (Pittner et al, 2005).
Preliminary studies suggest that CD49d expression in CLL B
cells may relate to overall survival (OS) among CLL patients
(Sembries et al, 1999) (Zucchetto et al, 2006a) independent of
CD38 status (Zucchetto et al, 2006a) or 11q- (Sembries et al,
1999). Others studies have used CD49d as one of six factors
used to assign a prognostic 'surface antigen profiling' score
(Zucchetto et al, 2005)(Zucchetto et al, 2006b). However,
there is no published data on the correlation of CD49d
expression with a wider range of established prognostic
parameters and its value as an independent prognostic factor.
We report that the level of expression of CD49d protein on
CLL B cells is prognostically important in a cohort of patients
with untreated CLL previously enroled on a prospective
observational study.
Patient cohort
As previously reported, between January 1994 and October
2002, we enroled 159 patients with untreated B-cell CLL/SLL
seen at Mayo Clinic (Rochester or Jacksonville campus) on
a prospective study evaluating the prognostic importance of
cytogenetic abnormalities and clonal evolution (Shanafelt et al,
2006a). The study was approved by the Mayo Clinic Institu-
tional Review Board and all patients gave written consent to
participate. Patients provided blood specimens for research
purposes at study entry and follow-up specimens over the
ensuing 2–11 years.
Prognostic tests
The CLL B cells were isolated from heparinized venous blood
by density gradient centrifugation. Purified peripheral blood
mononuclear cells (PBMC) from CLL patients were either used
immediately or suspended in RPMI 1640 medium/20% fetal
calf serum/10% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and stored at
)80?C until used. IGHV mutation status and cytogenetic
abnormalities by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) panel
testing were assessed using methods previously described by
our group (Jelinek et al, 2001, 2003; Dewald et al, 2003;
Shanafelt et al, 2006a,b). CD38 expression in CD19+cells was
measured using antibodies specific for CD38 and CD19 with
gates set by technicians with extensive experience assessing
CD38 in CLL B cells. Antibodies to CD19 and ZAP-70 were
used to detect ZAP-70 expression in CD19+cells using the
gating strategy of Rassenti et al (2004). Where presented as
categorically variables (i.e. positive or negative), the traditional
thresholds were used to classify CD38 (<30% or ‡30%) and
ZAP-70 (<20% or ‡20%) status. For categorical comparison,
patients with mutated IGHV genes using the IGHV3-21
rearrangement were grouped with unmutated patients (Tobin
et al, 2003).
CD49d analysis
For the present study, we measured CD49d expression by flow
cytometry. After purification of PBMC, lymphocytes were
gated based on forward and side scatter to exclude debris,

monocytes and doublets. CD49d expression in CD19+cells was
then measured using antibodies specific for CD19 (fluorescein
isothiocyanate; BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and
CD49d (phycoerythrin; BD Pharmingen, San Diego, CA,
USA). As expected (Alon et al, 1995) (Hemler, 1990), where
present, CD19 negative lymphocytes (T cells) expressed CD49d
and served as positive controls. CD49d was assessed on stored
specimens collected within 2 years of study entry for all
patients and within 12 months of study entry for 149 of the
158 patients (94%). CD49d, CD38 and ZAP-70 status were all
analysed on the same stored specimen and 145 of 158 (92%)
patients were untreated at the date of CD49d assessment.
Statistical considerations
CD49d expression was assessed in relation to level of ZAP-70
expression, CD38 expression and degree of IGHV mutation
(all treated as continuous variables). Relationships between
these continuous variables were explored graphically (scatter-
plots) as well as quantitatively (Spearman rank correlation
coefficient). In addition, we evaluated the relationship between
CD49d and categorical prognostic variables (e.g. mutated/
unmutated IGHV; Zap-70 positive/negative, etc.) using the
previously published 30% threshold to classify CD49d expres-
sion as 'high' or 'low' (Zucchetto et al, 2006b). Differences
between CD49d and other categorical variables were evaluated
using Fisher's exact test. All tests were two-sided and statistical
significance was defined as P < 0Æ05, where multiple compar-
ison corrections were not used.
Overall survival was calculated as the time from date of
diagnosis to date of death. Time to treatment (TTT) was
defined as the time from diagnosis until treatment or censored
at last date of follow-up. Differences in OS and TTT between
prognostic groups were evaluated using standard Kaplan–
Meier methods and log-rank statistics. Survival status was
confirmed for all 158 patients and treatment status could be
confirmed for 157 patients. As the interval from diagnosis to
study entry was >1 year for some patients, we also calculated
OS and TTT from the date of study entry. In addition, we
looked at OS and TTT from diagnosis in the subset of patients
who enroled on study within 1 year of diagnosis (n = 101).
Cox models were used to evaluate the impact of multiple
variables simultaneously on OS and TTT from diagnosis. The
number of deaths observed provided an adequate sample to
evaluate multivariate models including up to five prognostic
variables. Based on publications suggesting that CD38 adds
little prognostic utility to the combination of IGHV mutation
status and FISH (Krober et al, 2002) (Oscier et al, 2002),
IGHV, FISH, ZAP-70, Rai stage and CD49d were selected as
the five factors for evaluation. The leaps and bounds variable
selection approach was used to identify variables for multi-
variable models.
Recursive partitioning algorithm methods were used in
models for OS with CD49d as a continuous variable in order to
identify an optimal cut-off point for CD49d expression based
on our data. Both this cut-off point and the previously
described 30% cut-off point (Zucchetto et al, 2006a,b) were
evaluated in our analysis.
Of the 159 untreated patients with CLL/small lymphocytic
leukaemia (SLL) accrued to our prospective observational
study, 158 had cryopreserved specimens available for CD49d
testing. Patient characteristics are described in Table I. The
median time from diagnosis to study enrolment was
2Æ8 months and the median follow-up from diagnosis was
9Æ9 years (range 0Æ8–23 years). The majority of patients had
Rai stage 0 or 1 disease (83%) at study entry. ZAP-70 status,
CD38 status and cytogenetic analysis by FISH were available
for all 158 patients. IGHV sequencing was attempted in all 158
patients, with 126 (80%) patients classifiable as mutated or
Relationship of CD49d expression to other prognostic
The percentage of B cells expressing CD49d ranged from 0Æ3 to
100Æ0% (median expression = 5Æ5%; n = 158; Fig 1A and B).
We next evaluated the relationship between CD49d expression
and other prognostic parameters. When ZAP-70 expression,
CD38 expression, and the percentage of IGHV mutation were
considered as continuous variables, the percentage of CD49d
expression correlated with the expression of ZAP-70 (r = 0Æ54,
P < 0Æ0001) and CD38 (r = 0Æ58, P < 0Æ0001) but not the level

of IGHV mutation as assessed by the percentage change in
mutation sequence (r = )0Æ10, P = 0Æ25). To expand on these
findings, the relationship between CD49d and these parame-
ters was evaluated using the standard prognostic thresholds to
classify ZAP-70 (<20% vs. ‡20%), CD38 (<30% vs. ‡30%),
IGHV mutation status (£2% mutation vs. >2% mutation) and
the Dohner classification (Dohner et al, 2000) for FISH
abnormalities (Fig 1C–F). Patients with higher CD49d expres-
sion were more likely to be ZAP-70 positive, CD38 positive
and IGHV unmutated compared to patients with low CD49d
expression although substantial discordance was observed.
Finally, we evaluated the relationship of CD49d with these
parameters using the previously published threshold of 30% to
categorize CD49d expression as 'high' or 'low' (Zucchetto
et al, 2006a,b) (Table II). Using this threshold, 113 (72%)
patients had low (<30%) CD49d expression and 45 (28%) had
high (‡30%) CD49d expression.
Relationship of CD49d expression with overall survival
and time to treatment
We next evaluated the relationship between CD49d expression
and clinical outcomes. As of last follow-up, 72 patients had
been treated (46%) and 62 patients (39%) had died. The
estimated median OS from time of diagnosis for the entire
cohort was 13Æ2 years [95% confidence interval (CI): 11Æ1–
20Æ0 years]. The median TTT was 9Æ8 years (95% CI: 6Æ7–
20Æ2 years).
As a continuous variable, CD49d was a significant predictor
for both TTT (P < 0Æ0001) and OS (P < 0Æ0001) from the date
of diagnosis. Similar correlations with TTT and OS were also
observed from the date of study entry (TTT P < 0Æ0001, OS
P = 0Æ0002). Since CD49d was strongly associated with OS as
a continuous variable, we next explored the cut-off point for
CD49d that best stratified patients with respect to TTT and
OS. First, we evaluated differences in OS and TTT using the
previously published 30% threshold to classify CD49d expres-
sion (Zucchetto et al, 2006a,b). The median TTT from
diagnosis for patients with <30% CD49d expression was
18Æ0 years (95% CI: 10Æ0–20Æ5 years), compared to 5Æ2 years
(95% CI: 2Æ9–7Æ1 years) for patients with ‡30% CD49d
expression (P < 0Æ0001). There was also a significant difference
in OS from diagnosis using the 30% threshold with a median
of 20Æ0 years (95% CI: 13Æ2 years – not reached) in patients
with <30% CD49d expression and a median of 8Æ9 years (7Æ9–
11Æ6 years) inpatientswith
P = 0Æ0002 (Fig 2A–D).
As the optimal threshold to classify CD49d expression is
unknown (Zucchetto et al, 2006a,b) recursive partitioning
algorithms were used to identify a cut-off point for CD49d
expression that best predicted OS. This analysis showed that
a cut-off point of 45% CD49d expression best predicted
clinical outcome. Using this threshold, 121 (77%) patients had
<45% CD49D expression and 37 (23%) had ‡45% CD49D
expression. The median TTT from diagnosis for patients with
<45% CD49d expression was 18Æ0 years (95% CI: 9Æ8–
20Æ5 years), compared to 4Æ0 years (95% CI: 2Æ8–6Æ3 years)
for patients with ‡45% CD49d expression (P < 0Æ0001). There
was also a significant difference in OS from diagnosis using the
45% threshold with a median of 20Æ0 years (95% CI: 13Æ2 years
– not yet reached), in patients with <45% CD49d expression
and of 8Æ2 years (95% CI: 7Æ7–9Æ8 years) in patients with ‡45%
CD49d expression (P < 0Æ0001; Fig 3A–D). TTT (P = 0Æ046)
and OS (P = 0Æ01) were also both significantly longer in the
group with <45% CD49d expression when analysis was
restricted to the subset of patients (n = 101) who enroled on
study within 1 year of diagnosis.

Finally, we evaluated how CD49d (45% cut-off point) was

Plan A, B and C
... while we watched people and Ellie got to feed more birds! As we walked to the end of the spit of land it was scorching hot and we were wilting, so when we reached the 'lido pubblico' the opportunity to go for a swim in the Lake was too good to miss so that's what we did. The bay has a really sheltered part with shallows which go way out with large flat rocks perfect to sit on in the sun, and then a sudden drop off into the lake perfect for swimming. After a nice long ...
Camping Fontanelle...
... We had a lazy morning, the kids (and Mike) went in the pool etc and then it was time to get those hot sweaty suits and dresses on and go and find the meeting. The English speaking congregation was about 30 mins away at Castiglione Del Stiviere. We arrived very early (itself an historic moment for the Hunt family!) and even had time for a Cappuccino at McDonalds which just happened to be on the same road as the Kingdom Hall. We chose McDonalds for the free wifi but it ...
Drive from Campitello to Lake Garda
... be invalid was that we had had been in the queue so long that the timing on the ticket no longer made any sense!!! Anyway the whole saga meant that we had both now perfected the quality of patience. (Or not..) Hoorah we were now on the final 10km up the side of Lake Garda. The final hurdle in this journey was going to be the last 1km as the campsite website had warned us that the approach is along very narrow streets so campers with big outfits would need to take care. ...
Walk in the Dolomites
... You didn't really want to think about it too much otherwise it would freak you out - There were a few people sitting down for the journey, Elaine would have no chance! Once we were up though the views again were incredible in every direction. See the photos for some idea although it's very difficult to do it justice. The terrain was like we had landed on another planet and the glacier looked awesome. If you have crampons you can walk ...
Big Storm
... letting the water run off very well, there was so much in such a short time it was forming puddles in dips in the roof. We did what we could to fix it and retreated to the luxury of the caravan to play Uno and congratulate ourselves on not being in a tent! As we peered out the window at other people who were tenting with a river in the middle of their tent we felt very smug with our dry caravan and a nice cup of tea. Until... ...

Sony adds DSC-T77 and DSC-T700 to Cyber-shot range
Sony has introduced two new stylish cameras to its Cyber-shot range, in the form of the DCS-T700 and DCS-T77.
The DSC-T77 is Sony's thinnest model to date, at less than 5/8 of an inch thick. The 10 megapixel camera features a 3-inch touchscreen LCD screen, ISO up to 3,200, eleven scene modes, face detection tecnologies and in-camera image management.
The T700 though, earns extra points as it does everything the T77 does but throws in a slightly larger screen at 3.5 inches and 4GB of internal memory to boot. That's nearly 1,000 full-resolution or 40,000 VGA-quality photos, which certainly ensures it lives up to the "photo album in your pocket" reputation Sony labels it with.
Photos can be searched for in-camera by event, date, smile or face, displayed in calendar or chronological views, organised in
folders; and shared as slide shows or scrapbooks. The Picture Motion Browser software allows you to get more pictures onto your memory by letting you downsize the image to VGA and export it back into the photo album.
Both new cameras feature a newly-developed Carl Zeiss lens that integrates a 4x optical zoom, and also feature image stabilisation, scene recognition technology and an anti-blink function that warns you when someone has closed their eyes.
The two cameras will be available from September with pricing to be announced. The DCS-T77 will be available in brown, green, pink, black and silver, while the DSC-T700 will come in a choice of red, champagne gold, pink, dark grey or silver colours.

New York State Senator Malcolm Smith has called on rapper Lil Wayne to apologize for putting down the Big Apple during a recent interview.
The "Lollipop" hitmaker, who was arrested after his first show in Manhattan in 2007 and later served eight months in prison at Rikers Island on a weapons charge, recently opened up about his distaste for the city in an interview with MTV News, saying, "Flat out: I don't like New York."
RELATED: Forbes' Highest-Paid Celebs Under 30
But politician Smith has publicly urged the Louisiana native to give the state another chance, instead of continually making disparaging remarks which may affect the appeal for tourists.
During a news conference in Times Square on Wednesday, he said, "Here's my response to Lil Wayne -- and this response is on behalf of the 50 million tourists who come here and make New York City their home for two weeks out of the year, for the eight million people that live in New York.
RELATED: All Apologies: How Celebrities Say They're Sorry
"Very simple, if you don't like New York, you don't have to come to New York, you don't have to sell your products here and, perhaps, we won't come to your concerts ... I've taken strong exception to the words, 'I don't like New York.' I love this city. I was born and raised in this city ..."

|Rising from the Ashes
You've lost everything. Time to take it all back and more.Needs Examples
What happens when the world is yours... and then you lose it?Sometimes, a man rises to power. He has everything he could possibly want. A nice house, a loving family, and the most powerful crime organization in the world. But something happens and it's all snatched away from him. So what does he do? Admit defeat and wallow in despair? Sure, it's an option. Or he could buckle down and rebuild, becoming more powerful than he ever was.
ExamplesAnime & Manga

After settling the score with his father, he then takes over the Britannian Empire (i.e. the other half of the world) and proceeds to wage war on the Black Knights.
- In The Count of Monte Cristo (and its various movie adaptations), the plot focuses on a young and successful sailor who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune and sets about getting revenge on those responsible for his imprisonment.

In a World where druglord Tony Montana survived the hit that Alejandro Sosa put on him, Tony finds himself taking up regufe in some hidden away shack for three months, before deciding to take back his mansion and slowly work up from the bottom once again, until his new empire rules all of Miami unrivalled.

Now he's a mercenary general in the employ of one of the continent's largest empires, with all the respect and prestige his position affords him, and is secretly controlling the empire's Puppet Empress, as well as the rulers of two other empires, to set him and his allies up as the de facto rulers of the southern half of the continent.

- Napoleon Bonaparte defines this trope. He rose from a very minor Corsican noble family to general and emperor, then all of the old European elites united to depose him, and exiled him on the island of Elbe. He escapes and re-installs himself as emperor in just a few days - basically the time to travel from Elbe to Paris.

Anderson man accused of apartment and house fires faces attempted murder charge
An Anderson man has been charged with setting the fire that displaced nearly 80 residents of Azalea Apartments this summer and with setting fire to an elderly couple's home in March.
Matthew Lawrence Collett, 33, is facing two arson charges and a charge of attempted murder. A magistrate denied him bail Monday, and he remains in the Anderson County Detention Center.
The fires, nearly five months apart, both happened in the Zion community of Anderson County. The Aug. 14 fire at Azalea Apartments on Nunnally Road displaced 38 families. Residents woke to smoke and flames around 4 a.m. that day, then ran to other units in the complex urging people to hurry out. Everyone made it out unhurt, including a 3-year-old boy who was saved after two men in the complex formed a human ladder to reach him and pull him from a balcony.
Investigators found something — they declined to say what — at the August fire that ultimately linked Collett to a March 30 house fire on Cartee Road in Anderson.
Billy Frank Cheek and his wife, Evelyn, escaped that fire at their home in March. But Billy Frank Cheek, who was 83, tried to fight the fight the fire with a garden hose while his 82-year-old wife ran to the road and flagged down a driver to get help.
Firefighters were able to contain the blaze to the porch of the home, but found Billy Frank Cheek unresponsive in the yard. He was pronounced dead at AnMed Health Medical Center later that day.
Don McCown, Anderson County's deputy coroner, said the stress of watching his home burn and the pressure of trying to fight the blaze likely triggered the heart attack that killed Cheek. In the case of the house fire, Collett is charged with attempted murder.
Anderson County Fire Chief Billy Gibson announced Collett's arrest at a news conference Monday afternoon just before Collett's second bond hearing.
Gibson said fire investigators knew last Thursday that they had enough evidence to charge Collett with the apartment complex fire. But investigators could not find Collett until Sunday, when an Anderson County deputy saw him walking on Whitehall Road. He was granted a $25,000 bond Monday for the apartment fire, but by 2 p.m., he was facing an even more serious arson charge and the attempted murder charge for the March blaze.
Gibson said Collett faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted of the apartment fire, and up to 30 years in prison if convicted in the house fire.
Gibson declined to discuss any motive in the two cases.
"We don't want to say anything that could compromise the investigations," he said. "There are also possible further charges in the future. We know we can put Mr. Collett at the scenes."
County fire investigators have worked the case along with agents from the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division and the 10th Circuit Solicitor's Office have also been part of the case.
"This has been a highly collective effort," Gibson said.
Collett appeared agitated at his afternoon bond hearing, repeatedly touching, moving and clasping his hands as he answered "Yes, ma'am" to various questions directed to him from Magistrate Denise Malone.
When Malone asked Collett if he had any questions, he asked her to explain what he needs to do to get a preliminary hearing. He also asked when he would get to use the phone, saying that he had been waiting for a while to get access to one.
Ken Blakely, Anderson County's lead fire investigator, declined to discuss any specific evidence that led his team to conclude the fires were intentional. But he did ask Malone to deny Collett bail, saying that he'd had bond revoked in another state.
"He is a flight risk and a menace to society," Blakely said.
Family members of the Cheeks declined to comment Monday.
But one relative, a woman, said during the hearing that it was important for them to attend the proceeding.
"This has been terrible," she said. "We just don't want this to happen to another family."

About "Don't Look Back Now"
Lyrics for Brooks & Dunn - "Don't Look Back Now"
He doesn't want your love
But he can't say goodbye
He's beggin' you to stay
But he can't tell you why
You finally made your move
Your hand is on the door
You know the rest is hard
You've been this far before
Don't look back now
He's gonna see you cryin'
You'll turn around
It happens everytime
That look will always break you down
Don't look back now
You pick your suitcase up
You hear him call your name
You'd give your soul to him
If things could be the same
You stop and close your eyes
You grab some memories
You think of better days
But that's all history
Don't look back now
He's gonna see you cryin'
You'll turn around
It happens everytime
That look will always break you down
Don't look back now

Slideshow: Ask a Cicerone: How Far Have You Gone For Beer?
Flattered Her Way to Free Westmalle Extra
"The most effort I made to try a beer was when I convinced Rod Tod (owner of Allagash) to ship me a bottle of Westmalle Extra. He was in Belgium and naturally I was scheming to find out what he was able to try. Rob told me about this beer, so I told him how awesome he was until he felt compelled to ship me a bottle all the way from the brewery! Powers of persuasion brought me a beer that is only brewed twice per year and is only for internal use—the monks and guests of the abbey drink this beer at lunch. Was it worth the effort? Um. Yes." — Sarah Huska (Eureka! Burger)
Sacrificed Sleep for Dark Lord Day
"I've never really been one to go do ridiculous things for any one particular beer. Mostly, I'm just generally excited to try anything new. I tend to hit specialty liquor and beer stores when I travel, and I don't have much difficulty leaving with a few hundred dollars worth of beer that I can't buy at home. To that effect, I worked on the bottling line at Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri, for about a year, and had a buddy who did the same (sort of, he worked on the canning line) at Surly in Brooklyn, Minnesota. We'd both get our share of low fills of rare bottlings, specialties, and one-off beers and mail them back and forth to each other, trying to out-beer each other.
I guess you could say the most ridiculous thing I'd ever done for a beer would be at Dark Lord Day last year at Three Floyds in Indiana. I'd been living in Chicago for a short while and had heard about the beer release and festival from other beer geeks around, albeit in hushed, reverent tones. Of course I had wanted to make the pilgrimage down to Munster, but had resigned to waiting another year when the tickets sold out in 2 minutes. Lo and behold, three days before DLD, a buddy of mine shot me a text to see if I was up to anything that Saturday. He had a an extra ticket, and transportation. All he wanted in return was one of the four Dark Lords that I'd be buying. Hallowed beer release and festival, thousands of beer geeks bringing 'whales' from their personal cellars to share (myself included), and the chance to get in early before the whole thing got weird? It seemed perfect... almost perfect. The one caveat to this whole ordeal was that I was the closing manager of the bar on Friday, and then again that Saturday night. That 8 a.m. wake up call came quick and mean. Our glycol chiller had failed an hour before the end of service on Friday, and I had stayed really, really late fixing it. By the end of Saturday, I was exhausted, but I had my Dark Lord, plus a few bottles of Baller Stout (a blend of Dark Lord, Surly Darkness, Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch, and De Struisse Black Albert). Was it worth it? For the beer, I hope so. I gave the Dark Lord and Baller Stout away as part of a promotion for Chicago Craft Beer Week, so I hope those that got them enjoyed them. But for the experience, absolutely. I'll sleep when I'm dead." — Elliott Beier (Owen & Engine)
Drove Six Hours for 3 Fonteinen Framboos
"In 2004, I made a six hour drive from Toronto to Montreal to a friends place because he had a 1986 bottle of 3 Fonteinen Framboos. We probably sat around nosing our glasses for a good 20 minutes before even taking a sip. It was totally worth it and to this day it's one of the most complex and delicious things I've ever put in my mouth." — Jesse Vallins (The Saint Tavern & George Brown Chef School)
Traveled for One Beer, Got Two
"Every time I plan a trip, I try to fit in a visit to a brewery that I have never been to before. Two months ago was the first time that my whole trip was to try a one brewery's beer. While studying for the Cicerone Exam I was reading about all of these beers that are not available in Nevada. So as a birthday present to myself I decided to fly to Colorado for a beer trip. My destination: Avery brewery Company in Boulder. Let me tell you, the beers didn't disappoint. The best surprise of the whole trip was when I woke up the next morning to find that I was in the middle of a blizzard and decided to walk across the street to a beer bar that the guy at the front desk told me about. When I got there I found about 20 people outside. I was told that they were open so I asked one of them why everyone was outside? He told me that they are tapping Pliny The Younger today. Talk about dumb luck!" — Patrick Callahan (Bouchon Bistro)
Sacrificed His Days Off
"Thankfully, a lot of great stuff comes my way through my friends, work, and all the great beer lovers whom I serve. I haven't flown around the world to try a Westvleteren XII (although I have enjoyed some) or camped out for Dark Lord Day (which I've also enjoyed). But I have gone to work on my days off just to try some special tapping. Most recently, I did that to try Deschutes Dissident on tap, and it was well worth it. I have done some complicated trading to get my hands on some bottles I wanted, sort of like the guy who traded a paperclip for something else, then traded that, and so on until he traded for a new house. I drove around for hours looking for specific Jester King bottles to trade for some Cantillon and Hill Farmstead—drinking them was well worth the day I spent not drinking to make it all happen." — Justin Bonard (The Meddlesome Moth)
Wired Money to a Stranger for Hunaphu
Went to Colorado for Dale's Pale
He Was the Best Beer Wingman
Found a Cantillon Collaboration in Finland
From the Bronx to Brooklyn for Unblended Lambic
Straight to the Source for Westvleteren 12
Beer Swapped in Brussels
Let's Get Over Precious Beer
"My first job that dealt with craft beer was FOH manager at a place in Santa Cruz. We used to drive up and down the state to buy almost anything that was not typically available in our market. I can remember driving to Oregon to grey market kegs of 60 and 90 minute IPA in 2003. I was an idiot. The fact is most of these 'white whale' pilgrimages are not actually pilgrimages. They are internet trades or grey market purchases that more often than not conclude with an imperfect example of the coveted beer in the end-customer's glass. As US craft beer continues to cement its place as the world-wide standard I think it would be wise for us as an industry to remember that beer is not precious. Beer it is made in batches, not vintages. At its best beer is popular and abundant like bread—something everyone should be able to rely on having at arm's reach in high-quality and at an affordable price." — Sayre Piotrkowski (St. Vincent Tavern and Wine Merchant)
It's All About the Trip
"I'm lucky enough to have drunk lots of rare beers in many odd places. I've visited breweries here and abroad. Drank Cantillon from the source, told a bartender to surprise me at the Delirium Cafe. I've had all sorts of weird beers placed before me at The Sunset Grill And Tap, and I've driven a van full of beer back from Munster, IL after working Dark Lord Day. But any effort put in to all these moments wasn't for the beer. It was for the experience. And it was most certainly worth it." — Henry Joseph (The Pony Bar, Upper East Side)
Sought Out Craft Beer in Norway
Traveled to Tokyo for Westvleteren 8 & 12
Drove Across Belgium for Westvleteren 12
"For several years, my friend Jenn and I had been planning a trip to Belgium, where she had distant family. The plan was to...well...drink our way through Belgium. A visit to Westvleteren Abbey, where the famed Westvleteren 12 is brewed by Trappist monks, was to be the apex of our travels.
The abbey is located in Northern Flanders and is so remote that nary a bus would take you there. So we rented a car, with a GPS—a machine we were so grateful for that fairly soon into the journey, we felt that it/she deserved a name. And so it was that Little Wilma and her British-inflected robotic voice guided us past the Flemish signposts, through village circles, and narrow dirt roads and finally to this small, unremarkable abbey. We were very proud of ourselves to have arrived unharmed and on time for lunch, and were slightly disappointed to see plenty of others had done the same, no big deal.
The herring sandwiches were delicious; and the beer, served in a large chalice, was even better—a stunning, deep brown Quad, glistening in the sun. Was the "12" the best of the Belgians? Or was it the journey that made it so? I can't say; but I do know that it set us up for a great day and seemed to imbue me with powers beyond my imagination. After lunch we visited with my friend's family. I sat with Great Aunt Hetliva, and we chatted for the better part of an hour. I spoke in English while she spoke in Flemish. Neither of us understood a word of the other's language, but still we seemed to truly understand each other. It was a magical experience. I think I need to thank the monks for that one!" — Anne Conness (Simmzy's & Tin Roof Bistro)
To Belgium and Back for St. Martin Quad
Would Rather Stumble Upon Great Beers
Braved Smokey Bavaria for Zoigl
Frequently Stumbles into Great Samples
"I don't think I've really ever had to go about 'chasing whales' That being said, I have often quickly gotten on board for amazing beers that find their way into the bar/party/bottle share that I'm attending.
Best example of my very good luck: A couple years back (early February to be exact) when I was still fairly new to California, Drake's owner John Martin brought me along to the Stanford Mansion in Sacramento to help him do a private tasting of CA craft beer with a gaggle of State senators. We walk into a room where I was introduced to Vinnie and Natalie Cilurzo of Russian River Brewing Co. The tasting commences, and Vinnie pours a beer out of a growler for one of the Senators. 'This is called Pliny the Younger,' Vinnie explains to the man who sips the beer and responds with something like, "WOW, that's a lot of hops." Needless to say, I quickly put my glass out for a sample myself..." — Kelsey Williams (Drake's Brewing Co. & Triple Rock Brewing)

I'm craving for pan mee so decided to cook it on Saturday for dinner. I couldn't recall how long I didn't cook pan mee. Perhaps more than 6 months.
Woke up early in the morning to go to the wet market with hubby in order to get those ingredients for my pan mee.
Must have condiments for my pan mee are fried shallots and anchovies and not to forget the chili padi.
I'm very satisfied with my pan mee, and my mil also said its nice. Feeling accomplished.

|Reviews for Timely Love Stories
| Godofthunder97 chapter 36 . 7/9
Fantastic job with this chapter and really the rest of this story as a whole as well. I do apologize for not leaving a review on the other chapters but I truly am a big fan of this story as well as your Larryboy story. Again sorry for not leaving a review for any of those chapters. But anyway I was a hug fan of Veggie Tales as a kid and I still really enjoy it today and really your story is the best on this site. In fact it even inspired me to write my Veggie Tales collection of ficlets story. So once again great job and thanks for giving me something that makes me smile.
| Ellis97 chapter 36 . 3/25
As soon as VeggieTales In The House is done, Big Idea's deal with DreamWorks is over and that means their old looks will come back, Mr. Nezzer will be back, and so will their old personas.
| Book girl fan chapter 37 . 3/24
That's cute. It's finally offical!
Also, you dropped off a sentence somewhere.
'Besides, even if we did change our appearances, we still teach
"So that pretty much covers the set, right?" Larry'
Not sure what happend there, but it just cuts off.
| iheartgod175 chapter 36 . 2/16
You're welcome, Comment person! If anybody deserved to have a story mentioned in the TV Tropes pages, it's you! I was going to PM you and tell you that I had placed it on there, but I forgot about it, what with school and all...
I really liked this short! It was so cute! Granted, I haven't seen VeggieTales In the House yet, but I'll probably give it a try after reading this. I'll also get back to reading your other shorts when I can.
God bless, iheartgod175

There are new voice actors as well? I haven't seen the show, because I find the new designs so weird, but there are also new voice actors? I'm not sure I'll ever watch it now.

| Book girl fan chapter 34 . 8/12/2014
Obviously I need to catch up with my Veggie Tales, as I am not quite sure what is going in here. Fortunately, I do know that it is really cute!
| Katherine RhubarbVT chapter 34 . 8/10/2014
Love it! :D Keep up the good work! You are doing great!
| Music Person chapter 34 . 8/9/2014
How many different ways have I told you that you are amazing and keep getting better? I think you were on chapter 18 when I started reading this and now 34. And it is still great and getting better.
| iheartgod175 chapter 33 . 5/8/2014
Sorry I haven't showed up to review. I stopped by the Veggie Tales archive recently to add the last two chapters of Hugs and Kisses. At that point, I hadn't even watched Veggies in Space, so that's why I didn't review. But now that I've watched it (and I have to say, it's pretty cool and funny), I can now leave a proper review.
I like how insecure Petunia was about being colored blue, and how Larry was trying to cheer her up by saying that she'd look great in any color. Her reaction to finding out Larry had to make puns about her new color was hilarious, although that pales in comparison to the extra, though. My favorite has to be the one where Larry and Petunia are about to kiss and the director stops them.
I haven't seen the Lego movie, but they said that it was really good. I might go out and find a copy of the movie so I can watch it.
Anyways, great job on this chapter!
God bless, iheartgod175
| PizzaPie30 chapter 33 . 4/11/2014
This was actually very hilarious! I loved it! Although I most likely won't be able to see Veggies in Space:
The Fennel Frontier for a good while, at least I'll know what to expect Lol
Can't wait for more!
| Katherine RhubarbVT chapter 33 . 3/28/2014
TEEHEE! Larry and his cute jokes! :3 Love it when a good story comes out of the blue. And, yes, pun intended. I have a soft spot for Sci-Fi, too! I screamed when I saw the Veggies in Space trailer. Two, blue thumbs up!
| Book girl fan chapter 33 . 3/21/2014
This was great! I really want to see this one now, it seems like it will be fantastic.
I haven't seen the Lego Movie, but I really want to!

In Tuesday's Los Alamos Monitor, it was incorrectly listed that a Board of Public Utilities Meeting was scheduled this evening. The BPU meeting is next Wednesday, Aug. 17, at 5:30 p.m. at the DPU Conference Room, 170 Central Park Square
Officials at the Los Alamos Dept. of Public Utilities reported that a possible animal contact and a faulty fuse caused two power outages Sunday and Monday in the same White Rock neighborhood.
The first outage occurred on Sunday night from 9:25 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. when an overhead fuse was discovered blown, a condition typically caused by an animal contact. The second power outage, on Monday from 1:20 p.m. – 2:10 p.m., was caused at the same overhead location.
Electric linemen on the scene determined that the replacement fuse was flawed. Approximately 200 customers were affected on Rover, Kendall Dr., Koleen Ct, Kimberley Lane, Jeffrey St., Kris Court, Paul Place, Todd Loop, and Glennview St.
Private property owners in Peralta Canyon, Canon del Norte, and on Cochiti Mesa are being allowed to return to their property, beginning August 6. A non-transferable pass is required. The general public will not be allowed within the burned area. Only the property owners mentioned above will have access.
Several sections of the burned area are flooding as the monsoon rains continue. Crews are felling hazard trees along FR 280 and FR 281 and constructing silt dams to mitigate the flood erosion in that area. Road repair work will be completed throughout the rest of the week. Cultural assessments continue throughout the burned area.
Public meeting
At 5:30 tonight at Fuller Lodge, LANL will host an informational meeting regarding the Hazardous Waste Permit Modification Request for the planned Transuranic Waste Facility.
DPU meeting
The Board of Utilities will meet at 5:30 p.m. Aug. 17 in the Department of Utilities conference room, 170 Central Park Square.
The P&Z board will hold its regular meeting at 5:30 tonight in the council chambers. Topics include the site plan for Municipal Building and 2202 Canyon Road rezoning.
LTAB meeting
The Lodgers Tax Advisory Board will meet at 1 p.m. Tuesday at the chamber conference room, 109 Central Park Square.
The clock is ticking on the Los Alamos High School construction project. School starts Monday and crews have been working feverishly to complete the work on an accelerated schedule.
At the last school board meeting July 12, board members voted to use $86,000 in contingency funds to put construction crews on the accelerated schedule in hopes of completing the IMC and E Wing projects by Aug. 22. Crews fell behind schedule after the town evacuation due to the Las Conchas Fire the last week of June.
David Wharram, the owner's representative from the general contractor Gerald Martin said the work is going a lot faster and is coming along immensely.
LONDON (AP) — Britain will not allow a culture of fear to take over the streets, Prime Minister David Cameron insisted Wednesday, saying police have drawn up contingency plans to use water cannons if necessary.
"We will do whatever is necessary to restore law and order onto our streets," Cameron said in a somber televised statement. "Nothing is off the table."
Cameron has already recalled Parliament from its summer recess for an emergency debate on the riots Thursday.
Thousands of extra police officers on the streets kept a nervous London quiet Tuesday night after three nights of rioting, but looting flared in Manchester and Birmingham, where a murder probe was opened when three men were killed after being hit by a car.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Though he's not officially a candidate, Texas Gov. Rick Perry's visits this weekend to three important presidential nominating states threaten to overshadow any lift his would-be rivals hope to gain from a big week in Iowa.
Perry's expected entrance into the Republican race looms large over Saturday's Iowa straw poll and a nationally televised debate two days earlier — and he's not participating in either event. His all-but-certain bid comes as polls show the GOP electorate underwhelmed with the current crop of candidates as they seek someone strong to challenge President Barack Obama next fall.
The Public Regulation Commission Tuesday joined the governor and Democratic Party Chairman Javier Gonzales in calling for the resignation of their embattled colleague, Jerome Block Jr.
The commissioners also scheduled a vote Thursday to remove Block from his vice chairman's post in light of recent misconduct allegations.
In addition to being charged with misusing campaign money, is under investigation for questionable charges on his state-issued gas card and is a suspect in a stolen vehicle case in Santa Fe.
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Looking to avoid the criticism that has dogged energy producers in other states, a New Mexico industry group introduced a proposal Monday that would require drilling companies to be more transparent when it comes to using hydraulic fracturing fluids to extract oil and gas.
The New Mexico Oil and Gas Association filed its proposed rule with the state Oil Conservation Division on Monday. Under the proposal, companies would have to disclose the makeup of their fracturing fluids by posting them on an online registry.

In the morning light
I wake up to see your face
You open your eyes
There is that smile
Enchantment within the heart

Playing with her,
I wish nothing more!

Fearless girl they say,
but I'm not, baby you
are fearless. Baby I
love you for you, not what
you can do. I can
never let you go, If I
ever lost you, I'd die
Instantly. There
would be no waiting.
It would be quick,
I wouldn't feel it.
Fearless Girl they say,
I have fears, one fear,
and that's losing you forever,
please stay with me. You belong
with me; noone else baby!
I love you!

New Year, my baby
lights`garland and tears of joy
bring always Good News!
Copyright © Ovidiu Bocsa
After long day`s play
with doves ,they fly in the light
Let`s rest in the love
You bought a baby lion
And you didn't tell
Then you made me watch as you wrestled it
You laughed and blinked
A fateful blink for that was your last
Off you fell to your chilling lust.
