Gap-toothed Australian beauty Abbey Lee Kershaw has been a regular on the supermodel circuit since she made her splashy debut in 2008; since then, she's fronted campaigns for various high fashion labels ranging from Chanel to Rag & Bone. With those crystal-clear blue eyes and her free-spirited demeanor (the original Cara Delevingne, if you will), Kershaw has maintained an air of mystery about her wild-child demeanor, 10 piercings and all.
As part of i-D magazine's online relaunch, the style glossy has featured Ms. Kershaw as part of its "More Than a Model" weekly series. The four-minute video is directed by Graydon Shepperd (one half of the zeitgeisty Shit Girls Say duo) and exposes more than just the Aussie's Hollywood Hills home. Below, see her show off her secret musical talent while discussing the quality she finds most attractive in a man. In short: it's supermodel gold.

Sales mentor Pat Cavanaugh responds to the following question from an inc.com user:
I am starting a business but since I am on a limited budget I need to contract out for independent sales reps and pay by commission only. Can you give me advice on the best ways to find them? My business offers business services.
Pat Cavanaugh's response:This is a very good question, and one that needs to be addressed differently depending on the industry involved. Business services might range from consulting, to temporary help, to copy services, to a wide range of services. As a result, my recommendation is to do three things.
- First, work your tail off to obtain new clients, large or small. This will help get the business off the ground, and, more importantly, it will show potential independent sales reps that success is achievable and that people need your services.
- Second, look for similar or complementary industries or businesses in which reps would either have established relationships with decision-makers or be able to direct you to the right person. These people are probably independent sales reps, and if they can call on the same company for multiple services they will be more valuable to the end-user. These reps could be networked through trade shows, local associations, competitors or sales agencies that have many, many reps to represent different companies and their products and services.
- Third, develop an incentive plan or referral plan for reps you hire to reward them for bringing on new reps -- some type of structured plan for them to be compensated for multiple sales opportunities. This way you'll be able to grow exponentially.

WEST YARMOUTH — Jacob R. Clark found an easy way to get out of jury duty after receiving a summons in the mail.
The 9-year-old told the jury commission office his age.
Actually, the third-grader had his father, Robby Clark, make the call for him.
Jacob gets kind of nervous talking to adults on the phone. Besides, he doesn't get home from Station Avenue Elementary School until 4 p.m.
"I was like, 'What's a jury duty?'" Jacob said after being summoned to appear in Orleans District Court on April 18.
Jacob's grandmother Deborah Clark joked that jury duty was good for a day off from school.
But once she explained that jury duty could mean facing people accused of crimes, school seemed like a holiday.
"He said, 'I don't want to go! I don't want to go!'" Deborah Clark said.
Robby Clark called the jury commission office to find out what happened.
While the state agency got his son's name and address correct, someone apparently had typed 1982 for Jacob's birth year instead of 2002, Deborah Clark said.
The mistake was quickly corrected, she said.
Summonsing a child "doesn't happen that often," Massachusetts Jury Commissioner Pamela Wood said. "We hear about it once or twice a year."
Erroneous birth years usually originate in the census records of the municipality where the child resides, she said.
Some town officials will enter fictional birth dates — such as Jan. 1, 1980 — if parents do not supply a birth year for their child, Wood said.
The state discourages town officials from appropriating birth dates that are within the realm of human possibility, she said.
It asks municipal officials to leave the date blank or to type in something obviously fictional, such as July 4, 1776, Wood said.
Folks who seem to be born the same year as the United States or have no birth year will receive jury summons, Wood said.
But it's important to keep the juror system inclusive, she said. Prospective jurors still in their childhoods or over the age of 70 can call the jury commissioner's office to explain the situation.
"We can just clear it up over the phone for you," she said.
Things get more complicated if parents ignore multiple summons for their child. If it reaches the level of a notice of delinquency, the parents will have to come up with some kind of proof of the child's age, such as a birth certificate, Wood said.
Deborah Clark said her grandson was relieved to learn he had ducked jury duty — for now.
"I said, 'Some day you'll have to go,'" she said.

Lebanon County's director of elections is entering Tuesday's election with a bit more confidence than she had in the spring primary.
That's because Lori Oliver had only been on the job a couple of months and was still on the low side of a steep learning curve. Although supported by an experienced staff, Oliver received additional aid by having a representative from the electronic voting machine manufacturer, Election Systems & Software, to provide backup assistance.
That won't be necessary this time, Oliver said.
"I thought the primary election went great, but I had more assistance," she said Thursday during an interview in her office at the Lebanon Municipal Building. "However, I do feel I am prepared for this one even without the assistance. The machines are all programmed and ready to go."
Oliver believes the voting machines will get more of a workout on Tuesday than they did in the spring, when 16 percent of registered county voters turned out to the polls -- but not too much more.
She is predicting one in four voters will take the time to vote on Tuesday. That would equate to 20,006 voters based on the 80,026 registered to vote.
Numbers on Tuesday should be higher for a couple of reasons, Oliver said. One is, there are more competitive races involving Democrats than there were in the primary. The other is because, unlike the primary, the county's 11,013 registered independent and third-party voters are eligible.
There has been very little movement in overall voter numbers since the last election, Oliver said. Republicans still outnumber Democrats by a healthy margin. There are 43,093 registered Republican voters, or 54 percent of the total, compared to 25,920 Democrats, who represent 32 percent of all voters. Independents and third party voters represent 14 percent of the total.
There have been no new rule changes, Oliver said.
Although a Voter ID law is still mired in the courts, like it did in the primary, the state has directed poll workers to ask for photo identification, Oliver said. However, unless you are a first-time voter in a precinct, you will not be required to show it, she said.
But another rule change may be in the works for future elections, regarding the use of cellphone recordings.
A YouTube video made by a Perry County voter gained national attention in last year's presidential election when it showed a malfunctioning voting machine repeatedly registering a vote for Republican Mitt Romney when the Barack Obama tab was pressed.
Now the state is urging counties to come up with policies to regulate recording devices, Oliver said. About 70 percent of counties already have policies in place prohibiting their use, she said.
Lebanon County is not one of them, but it was briefly discussed just days before the primary after a polling worker raised the issue during a training session, Oliver said.
"When we did the primary training, somebody asked about it," she recalled. "I suggested that we not allow them (cellphones), thinking that it might infringe on someone's privacy. However, I was new and didn't know I would have to get the approval of the Board of Elections, which would be the commissioners. "
With no chance of getting formal approval in time for the primary, a decision was made to table the idea until the next election cycle, Oliver said.
"We didn't want to not approve in the primary and then approve it in this municipal election," she said. "We want to do it in the beginning of an election year, if we want to go forward with it."
Even without a formal policy, election judges can use their own discretion if they believe someone is interfering with another voter, Oliver said.
"Keep in mind, if the judge of elections feels that someone is infringing on someone's privacy, they can ask that person to put their phone away, or whatever it might be," she said.

Firearms training: Quiet on the line
Running a quiet range takes a lot of work but results speak for themselves
To start with, I'm a big supporter and admirer of range safety. I intend to retire with happy memories and no "extra" holes. The trends of increasing violence and a more focused and in many cases, better trained criminal force us, as instructors to adapt our drills and courses appropriately. The use of simulators, Airsoft, and Sims can augment this training, but I wanted to focus on lethal firearms for this article.
One of the skillsets I have focused on recently is the ability to "see." Not "civilian see" but "cop see." What I've found is by honing this ability, it makes us quicker and more reactive. Yelling "gun" on the range does not get us there though. It starts with giving our courses and ranges depth. Even though the possibility of having a 360 degree shooting arena is remote with lethal firearms, there's nothing that says you cannot involve scans or movement.
In that vein, I wanted to put some ideas together.
Range Commands
By doing these you're forcing the thought process — the shooter has to develop a plan based on what they see. The danger in any training is conditioning and programming. I've had people not shoot because they felt the gun wasn't pointing at them or they thought they had more time. The fact is that we don't shoot everyone with a gun. That decision to shoot is a personal one and a multitude of factors are involved.
Contagious Fire
We can use this for felony car stop, traffic stop, ped stop, any number of scenarios. Because of the width of the car, it is probable that both the driver and passenger Deputy do not have full view of the area and suspects not to mention these things in dim light. Imagine, driver sees handgun while passenger does not. What's going to happen? If that driver shoots what's going to happen? If the driver yells, "gun partner" then fires, what's going to happen?
When to Stop
Imagine a shooter making that decision to stop firing when the situation changes to where that type and level of force is not needed. Do they tactically reload, transition to their TASER or other option? Do they get on the radio to update their status? As cops, all of us know that the most dangerous time is immediately following an incident. Adrenaline coursing through our bodies and the myriad emotions slamming into our head.
Real Weapons
No Shoots
It's hard to limit the ideas for an article but I hope that the ones I mentioned are of value. In my experience with this type of training, a debrief is mandatory. As instructors you also have to ask yourself what if a violation of policy occurs during these drills. This is an evolution but solid foundational policy and legal training will limit these issues.
At the beginning of every class, I ask myself, "what am I trying to do here and is it going to make our people faster, better and safer?" Running a quiet range takes a lot of work but results speak for themselves with higher accuracy, quicker (appropriate) reactions, and a more stress-inoculated Peace Officer.

|Occurrence and human exposure of p-hydroxybenzoic acid esters (parabens), bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE), and their hydrolysis products in indoor dust from the United States and Three East Asian Countries.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23025715 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|p-Hydroxybenzoic acid esters (parabens) and bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) are widely present in personal care products, food packages and material coatings. Nevertheless, little is known about the occurrence of these compounds in indoor dust. In this study, we collected 158 indoor dust samples from the U.S., China, Korea, and Japan and determined the concentrations of 11 target chemicals, viz., six parabens and their common hydrolysis product, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HB), as well as BADGE and its three hydrolysis products (BADGE▪H2O, BADGE▪2H2O, and BADGE▪HCl▪H2O). All of the target compounds were found in dust samples from four countries. Concentrations of sum of six parabens in dust were on the order of several hundred to several thousands of nanogram per gram. Geometric mean concentrations of BADGEs in dust ranged from 1300 to 2890 ng/g, among four countries. Methyl paraben (MeP), propyl paraben (PrP), BADGE▪2H2O, and BADGE▪HCl▪H2O were the predominant compounds found in dust samples. This is the first report of BADGE and its hydrolysis products (BADGEs) in indoor dust samples and of parabens in indoor dust from Asian countries. On the basis of the measured concentrations of target chemicals, we estimated the daily intake (EDI) via dust ingestion. The EDIs of parabens via dust ingestion were 5-10 times higher in children than in adults. Among the four countries studied, the EDIs of parabens (5.4 ng/kg-bw/day) and BADGEs (6.5 ng/kg-bw/day) through dust ingestion were the highest for children in Korea and Japan.

Slow Feed Non-Skid Dog Bowl
Slow Feed Non-Skid Dog Bowl 14 14
Waste of money Made for dogs with long skinny nose. My lab can't get his nose in the bowl & we bought a large. And the nonskid part is a joke! 01/09/2015
Slows them down but skids The dogs looked at me funny when I first fed them with this product. It definitely slowed them from eating to fast. The product works great for that. I have a tile floor and two of the three dogs were chasing their bowls across the kitchen floor. 12/10/2014
A great product My Yorkie ate his food so fast he would immediately get sick. When I saw this bowl at the 1-800-PetMeds site, I knew I had to give it a try. Works really well and has ended my little guys habit of eatting his food so fast. The bowl did tend to slide a little as he ate, but placing it on a small mat solved that problem. 10/21/2014
Didn't work This didn't slow my Maltese down one bit. 09/07/2014
Yes, but NO for Pug Nosed Dogs!!! This is a great item .... For dogs with a long nose only. I didn't think of this, but my dog's face became reddened after a while using this product. Then we found out and realized that my dog (PUG) shoves his face in there to eat, it slows him way down ... but injures his face due to the raised slots that he presses down on while trying to eat the food. I have seen other bowls for this same purpose and will buy one with LOW raised BUMPS in it instead. Then it will still be a challenge for him, but won't injure his face. Other breeds to watch for: Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Boxers, any dog, especially SMALL Toy Type of dogs, I would not recommend this product. 02/03/2014

Review for Heartland Golden Retriever Rescue, Knoxville, TN, USA
We adopted a 2 year old golden retriever from this organization over a year ago. We were working with a golden rescue in the DC area but quickly found out what great golden this organization rescued and that they needed the help more than the other organization. They went above and beyond sending us U Tube videos of the dogs that they had because we were out of state. They also let us meet a few during off hours, again going above and beyond. Its been a great experience working with them and we have supported their cause ever since.
People still stop and ask us where we got such a beautiful dog and they looked stunned when we tell them she was a rescue. I

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
Do we ever have any evidence that Scott and Uhura were attracted to one another prior to The Final Frontier?

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
I think there were some hints throughout TOS that Scotty was attracted to Uhura. But it was the same level of attraction he showed to other female crewmembers from time-to-time.

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
People, including actors like Chris Pine, always talk about how these characters cannot function as human beings without the other and I cannot imagine what people would say if the same things were said about Uhura.
So it's kinda ironic that people think that in a franchise that is mainly based on a friendship that defines the characters it's Uhura the one defined by her relationship with Spock and further ironic is that they consider that diminishing of her character all the while the same identical thing (and "worse") is considered the biggest appeal of the K/S friendship for many.
IMO It all comes down to the fact that according to some women cannot express love and feelings because if they do that they're considered "weak". On the other hand there is this very radicated patriarchal idea in the star trek fandom in particular that men being defined by their interpersonal relationships are good story telling and character development (maybe because it had always been like that) Only men are allowed to show feelings without being made weak by them.
Take how McCoy is mainly defined by his friendship with Kirk in nu!trek as almost the totality of his most important scenes are about his friendship with Kirk and yet no one complains about that making McCoy weak as a character.
Spock: I apologize, Captain, but the complexities of human pranks escape me.
|July 2 2013, 02:43 PM
Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
none at all. Both James and Nichelle were pretty much puzzled by that, from what I remember, because there is no hint in tos that these two characters could be more than friends. BUT she said for example that Spock/Uhura was a pair that Roddenberry himself had in mind but it was controversial to explore or even just hint in the 60s.
Anyway there is no relationship to talk about even in "the final frontier". Not even the script mentions a romantic relationship or even a build up for that.
The only hint that she could have romantic feelings for Scotty is a scene where a mentally compromised (thank Sybok) Uhura tried to seduce an unwillingly Scotty (who knew she was a convert and therefore not herself) and they never mentioned it again. The only mention it gets is in the DC comics where they have them say that they're just friends and she hadn't been herself.
I know that some people think that they were already together before that (cue that other scene where she brought him lunch) but if that was true then what she said under Sybok's influence wouldn't make any sense as she explicly stated that before Sybok had made her realize those feelings she had never expressed them (also Scotty's reaction suggests she had never acted that way with him. He had the biggest wtf face when she started to talk) they were friends since so many years and a family so they could be affectionate toward each other as Kirk was when he hugged her after Spock died or how she acted when Spock came back.. but nothing more than that.
as a black female character played by a black actress Uhura had never been allowed to have any hint of on screen romance unless it happened while she was under some influence (like the Kirk/Uhura kiss and the whole Uhura/Scotty thing) so thanks but no thanks. At least the nu!trek relationship between Spock and Uhura is real, reciprocal and the old fashioned free will and "people met and fell in love" that is always better than "I suddenly decided that I love you because a crazy mofo manipulated my feelings".
If that was my thing I'd ship Spock and Leila Kalomi then.
Spock: I apologize, Captain, but the complexities of human pranks escape me.

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
Mostly I think that the moment of entry of their ship into Kronos' atmosphere, 3 minutes eta from Harrison, was a really inappropriate moment for her to front Spock about his apparent lack of care for her feelings. This was underlined by Kirk's "are we really doing this now" which elicited a generalised snicker from the audience when I saw it and IMO made Uhura look unprofessional and foolish.
Elsewhere in the movie she did really well, but that IMO unfortunate moment was what caught my attention the most on first viewing.

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
I have mixed feelings on the scene with uhura's emotional outburst .however I did find it realistic in the sense that that is the way we humans behave. we humans tend to lose control at the wrong place at the wrong time it is one of our most tragic flaws.
However I don't think uhura will have had an outbust if anyone's but kirk was there. kirk was her and spock's close friend so it was not like she let loose in front of a random co-woker.
Also remember spock throwing kirk out of the ship in the first film? that was way more un professional than uhura emotional outbust. I don't see people calling spock out on that.
Also when he was an acting captain, Spock attempting murder on the bridge by strangling kirk in front of his crew mates and his dad that was way unprofessional either.
Sure Kirk provoked him by saying he did not care for his mum but uhura is in the same position as well. spock provoked her by not caring of his life and her feelings.
Lastly, how about kirk eating an apple and treating the kobayashi maru test as a joke in front of his class mates and instructors...how un professional is that?
I don't mean to bring up race/sex, sadly it is a huge factor with uhura. its like her white male counterparts gets a free pass for behaving like the flawed humans we all are but she gets put down.
a lot of people said all uhura ever did was cry. however what is so weak about crying because your captain and friend died or crying because of your boyfriend's potential death.
Didn't Kirk cry when Captain Pike died?
Spock cried when kirk died and he also cried when his planet got blown up and he watched his mum die. the tears may not have fallen from his eyes but his eyes were still filled with tears. This was the reason why he got off the captain's chair and headed to the elevator.Spock was about to burst into tears.
Why is Spock and Kirk not called weak? oh yeah...they are men.
But like you said, uhura was great in other parts of the film. she did help spock a lot, even after she told him to get the bad guy. Carol is the other girl that has been crucified for just been a pretty face. lets all forget how she confronted and slapped her dad because of his evil plans (sarcarsm)
oh well....

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
I dislike the timing of Uhuras outburst because they were in mid mission, approaching Kronos, 3 minutes eta Harrison and their lives were in danger not because Kirk was there. The discussion was ended by an attack by the Klingons, which IMO reinforces that as a bad time.
Sure humans loose it at the wrong moment sometimes, but not every time or we'd be extinct. Uhura is a trained professional and the volcano thing had happened some time earlier - I'd have hoped she'd have picked a better time.
I think the writers put it there because there was nowhere better, given the amount of action but I still dislike it. I dont dislike Uhura btw, it pulls me out of the story and I think bad things about the writers.
wrt your examples
Spock marooned Kirk immediately after Kirk mutinied and attacked him but when they were deciding what to do next, not mid mission . It was still inappropriate and iirc while he was climbing out of the hole Kirk muttered about suing him.
Spock attacking Kirk was definitely unprofessional and Spock removed himself from command because of it. Also IMO having your love for your mother attacked immediately after you'd seen her, your home planet and 99. 9 % of its people destroyed is more immediately provoking than your boyfriend not being demonstrative when he thought he was going to die some days ago. YMMV.
Kirk's behaviour at the Kobayshi Maru was unprofessional and Spock was trying to get him thrown out of The Academy because of it when news of the attack on Vulcan came. Moreover that happened in a simulation, not on the front line.

Re: Developments you'd like to see in the NTrekverse
wrt Carol - mostly awesome with her science and weapons expertise and being willing to face off her father on the Enterprise but IMO she chose a weird time and place to take her clothes off and that's what people mostly remember. I dont think slapping him was particularly brave or clever as she didn't seem to think he'd hit her back. IMO the smart move would have been to pretend to be cowed and try to disable the weapons system for a while longer.

A few far downside strikes in SPX are seeing action this morning, with 15K Dec12 450 puts (64% out of the moneY) trading in a 1×2 vs 7500 Dec 650 puts to open a new position. Inititor paid $6 ($4.5Million total) and could be looking at positive downside in a very slow grind lower, however, experienced traders tend to consider this type of structure very risky in the case of a downside shock since the 450s have the potential to explode in a panic.

Olympus meets deadline, remains on Tokyo Stock Exchange
updated 10:50 am EST, Wed December 14, 2011
Olympus meets deadline, stays on the TSE for now
Olympus has successfully met the December 14 deadline of filing financial results and relisting the last five years of earnings. The company earlier delayed these numbers after admitting to covering up losses. It had been cleared of immediate criminal claims but risked being delisted from the Tokyo Stock Exchange. While exonerated from claims of a yakuza link, Olympys was found o have hid nearly $1.7 billion through advisor fees and takeovers.
The company continues to undergo investigations by law enforcement agencies in Japan, the UK, and the US, and may still be delisted if a review by the TSE determines that its practices were too serious to ignore. Olympus claims the deception was due to a few greedy senior executives, some of whom recently resigned.
Much of the trouble for Olympus emerged when it fired its new CEO in what's now known to have been an attempt to cover up the earlier mismanagement. While he hasn't been invited back, forced-out leader Michael Woodford has called for even more resignations in what would likely result in a major restructuring of the entire company.

Nascar holds its annual All-Star Race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Saturday night. Tailor-made for television in 1985, it's one of the events that brought Nascar into the mainstream. So it's timely that the Nascar Hall of Fame, based (like many of the race teams) in this North Carolina city, has opened an exhibit harking back to a simpler era.
"Grassroots Racing" features cars, trophies and photographs from four Nascar short tracks (all are a half-mile or less in length) where some of the sport's pioneers cut their teeth. All are still open, but the Sprint Cup, Nascar's top tier, long ago moved on to bigger venues in Daytona Beach, Fla., Texas and Las Vegas.

The Help You Need in Your Time of Need
If you've been injured while working on or near the water you probably have a lot of questions. How are you going to provide for yourself and your family now that you've been injured? Who can you count on to protect your rights as a victim? Who will ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve because of your accident? If you talk to a lawyer, will your employer hold it against you?
These are all legitimate questions and concerns shared by many injured maritime workers. This is where the experienced maritime injury and Jones Act attorneys at The Young Firm can help you. With over 50 years of focus on maritime law and Jones Act cases, our attorneys boast an impressive track record. Our history of favorable verdicts and impressive settlements speaks to our skill and experience with these types of cases.
Common Questions about Maritime Injury and Jones Act Cases
Being hurt while on the job raises many questions. Below are five common questions and concerns that you might have as an injured maritime worker:
- I was injured while working on or near the water. What are my rights? If you were injured while working on or near the water then you may be entitled to file a claim under general maritime law, the Jones Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Act, or the Death on the High Seas Act. You have the right to pursue a lawsuit and recover damages, which is where an experienced law firm like The Young Firm can dramatically improve your chances of success.
- Who can sue for a maritime injury? We've represented Jones Act seamen, maritime workers, deckhands, longshoremen, harbor workers, oil rig workers, tug boat and barge workers, and other workers in the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi River. If you've been injured while working on an oil rig, floating crane barge, crew vessel, supply vessel, cargo ship, tanker, fishing vessel, drill ship, construction barge, towboat, tugboat, or other floating vessel or structure then please contact us to find out how we can help you, too.
- What financial compensation can I receive in a maritime injury lawsuit? Depending on your situation, you may receive compensation for your medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages (including overtime), physical disability, mental anguish, disfigurement, loss of enjoyment of life, loss of companionship, mental disability, property damage, and loss of fringe benefits.
- I see you are located in Louisiana, but I wasn't injured there. Will you still take my case? In a word, yes. We've represented clients in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, and Texas as well as workers injured in the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi River. In addition, we have helped injured seamen across the United States by working with their local attorneys to ensure they have a skilled and experienced maritime injury legal team on their side.
- Will I be blackballed from future maritime jobs if I bring a lawsuit against my employer? We've been practicing maritime law for more than 50 years in the Gulf Coast area and we believe there is no black list. In fact, there are laws that prevent your former employer from revealing information like injuries you may have received while on the job. In addition, we've had several former clients who received excellent settlements later return to work offshore after they recovered from their injuries.
The Place to Turn for your Maritime Injury Case
For more information, we offer two free publications that will help you make some very important decisions about your future. The first is a short e-publication with some surprising insight titled "6 Secrets Your Company May Not Tell You When You Get Injured Offshore". This publication can be emailed to you right away.

Role of SALL4 in the progression and metastasis of colorectal cancer

Human cancer cells resemble stem cells in expression signatures leading them to share some features, most notably, self-renewal. A complex network of transcription factors and signaling molecules are required for continuance of this trait. SALL4 is a zinc finger transcriptional activator crucial for maintenance of self-renewal in stem cells; however, its expression level has not yet been elucidated in colorectal tumor cells. To determine this level and probable clinicopathological consequences, its expression was analyzed.
SALL4 expression in fresh tumoral and distant tumor-free tissues from 46 colorectal samples was compared by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Greater than a two-fold increase in SALL4 expression was detected in 87% of tumors vs. normal related tissues. SALL4 expression was significantly correlated with tumor cell metastasis to lymph nodes, especially in moderately-differentiated tumor samples (P < 0.05). Furthermore, higher levels of SALL4 mRNA expression were significantly associated with younger than older patients with tumor cells in stages I and II (P < 0.05).
These results indicate a relationship between SALL4 expression and tumor cell metastasis to lymph nodes and consequent advancement of tumors to advanced stages III and IV. Along with the promising evidence of its role in self-renewal in various cancers, SALL4 may have a role in progression, development and maintenance of colorectal cancers.

|Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia in infancy associated with parenteral alimentation.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 402457 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Liver biopsy was performed to exclude anatomic obstruction of the biliary tract in five prematurely born infants who had developed conjugated hyperbilirubinemia during intravenous alimentation with a protein hydrolysate. Each was being treated after having undergone a segmental intestinal resection for necrotizing enterocolitis. Bacterial and viral infections, metabolic disorders, and isoimmune hemolytic disease were excluded as possible causes of jaundice. Light microscopic and ultrastructural analysis disclosed cholestasis and hepatocellular injury without significant inflammatory reaction. Jaundice abated following permanent discontinuation of parenteral alimentation. The jaundice and cholestasis are interpreted to be hepatotoxic effects because of (1) their temporal relationship to the treatment and (2) the presence of hepatocellular damage.

Incoming Gov. Andrew Cuomo has vowed to clean up Albany's weak ethics climate.
- Filed Under
ALBANY — Scandals and budget fights again dominated the landscape at the state Capitol in 2010.
Gov. David Paterson's myriad scandals, a bruising battle over the state's fiscal troubles and Democrats' tenuous hold over the state Senate marked the key moments of a rocky year in Albany.
The debate over how to close a $9.2 billion budget gap in the current fiscal year dragged on until early August, narrowly missing the record for the latest budget passage in state history. ...

A lot of stuff gets bandied about in the Legislature in every session, but Alabama lawmakers really have only one ironclad, inescapable obligation - passing the two state budgets for the coming fiscal year. All else is secondary, for without passage of the General Fund and education budgets, everything grinds to a halt because the state has no legal authority to spend money once the current fiscal year ends.
Given that, the budgets obviously deserve the most attention from the Legislature and should be addressed before other, lesser matters take up the time of the House and Senate. Alabamians have long understood this and have seen too many sessions of the Legislature end with passage of one or both of the budgets late on the last night in a fog of fatigue and confusion, with most lawmakers not really knowing what the budgets contained.
Alabama voters even took a stab at trying to change the process 30 years ago when they approved the "budget isolation" amendment to the state constitution. Under that amendment, until the budgets were passed, no legislation other than the budgets could be considered without a three-fifths vote in the House or Senate. The thinking was that the supermajority vote required would keep the members focused on the budgets, working to pass them so that they could move on to other legislation that could be considered under the usual voting rules.
It wasn't a bad concept, but as a practical matter it didn't work. Budget isolation resolutions soon were routinely passed and all manner of legislation was thus considered, regardless of the status of the budgets. Nothing really changed.
But now state Sen. Dick Brewbaker, R-Pike Road, has offered another amendment that draws a stricter line between the essential budgets and all other legislation. Brewbaker's proposal would establish an annual regular session of 20 meeting days with 60 calendar days, during which "legislation of any nature" could be considered, except for appropriations bills - the budgets - and other fiscal legislation such as bond issues or tax proposals.
That session would be followed by a budget session of 10 meeting days within 45 calendar days. Because the Legislature's sessions now are 30 meeting days within 105 calendar days, the total length of lawmakers' in-session time would not change. In the budget session, only the budgets and fiscal legislation as described above could be considered.
That creates a forced focus on the budgets, without the wiggle room allowed under the budget isolation amendment, which is repealed under Brewbaker's proposal.
It's an appealing idea that deserves serious debate in this session.

POSTED: 9:51 a.m. HST, Apr 17, 2012
LAST UPDATED: 10:17 a.m. HST, Apr 17, 2012
Laura H. Thielen, a former director of the state Department of Land and Natural Resources under Republican Gov. Linda Lingle, said today that she will run for state Senate as a Democrat.
The Democratic Party of Hawaii has determined that Thielen is not eligible to run under the party's banner because she has not been a member in good standing for the minimum six months required under the party's rules. Thielen asked the party for an exception but was rejected.
Thielen's decision to enter the Democratic primary in Senate District 25, which covers Waimanalo and Hawaii Kai, puts the onus on the party. State Democrats could challenge her candidacy in Circuit Court or move to expel her from the party.
State Sen. Pohai Ryan, a Democrat in her first term, now represents the district. Former state Senate Minority Leader Fred Hemmings, a Republican who represented the district for a decade, has said he intends to run again.
"Voters have a legal right to choose who represents them," Thielen said in a statement. "A small group in a party cannot secretly and arbitrarily veto that choice. I am a member of the Democratic Party. Hawaii law allows me to run for public office as a Democratic candidate."
It's important to give voters a real choice among candidates this year," she said. "The Legislature is taking unprecedented action to eliminate environmental and zoning laws and limit public accountability over large government contracts and development. These laws have the potential to change the face of Hawaii forever."
Dante Carpenter, the chairman of the Democratic Party of Hawaii, has said the Democrats unhappy with the party's rules can discuss potential changes at the state convention in May.

Writing Spoken Word Poetry Guide
A guide as to help you better write spoken word.
Hey guys, I was thinking and just thought that maybe I could write about how to go about writing SPOKEN WORD poetry. Here is a guide for those interested in performing arts, as well as the art of literature.
Spoken word poetry is a way of speaking to the audience with a narration by one person. Spoken word poetry is an art form to express one's idea, opinion, and stance on a particular subject.
Step 1: Getting Started
Spoken Word Poetry requires a voice, it needs to be read and it needs to be heard. The voices behind the words have to be genuine and passionate about the subject. To start writing your Spoken Word poetry, think of a subject.
Having a hard time thinking of one? Try mind-mapping it out. On a blank sheet of paper, give yourself a situation. Write the first word that comes to mind. Continue doing so for a minute. You will then have a list of words. From this patch, pick one that interests you to explore as a topic.
Step 2: Writing Process
Nobody said writing poetry will be easy, in fact you could be staring at your paper for long hours at ends without anything coming to mind or without having any clues on how to string floating words together. The trick is to pace yourself and continuously revisit your piece. Most poetry aren't started and finished in one sitting.
The flow of your word choices is important as well. Spoken Word poetry doesn't necessarily contain rhymes; however it does beautifully form rhythm. To form rhythm in Spoken Word poetry is a way you craft your words together.
Step 3: Finishing and polishing
When you feel that your piece is done, put it away for a short amount of time. Stepping away from your work will give your eyes and mind rest from reading and re-reading the lines that have been going through your head. Once your mind is clear and your eyes had rest, reread your work.
Once you are finish writing your poem it's time to rehearse it! The main point of Spoken Word poetry is the SPOKEN word. Performing poetry is different from actually reading it. To have a great performance keep reading it out loud, memorize it, and try out different stresses and volume for words and lines.
There you have it! Your own Spoken Word Poetry!
Hope that really help J

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Nevada Highway Patrol is investigating a fatal rollover over the weekend on Interstate 215 in Las Vegas.
The patrol says a 24-year-old man was killed after he lost control of his jeep and rolled over near Sahara about 2:30 a.m. Sunday.
He was taken to University Medical Center where he later died.
Trooper Loy Hixson says the man was the only person in the truck. A preliminary investigation suggests he was driving too fast and that alcohol may have been involved.
The victim's name has not been released.

(from March 15th)
This weeks guest came in to talk to us about online communities and digital spaces. She had an interesting career so far doing some acting and also working on digital spaces and installments. Originally from New York, she told us of her experiences teaching at NYU and acting.
Poor Presentation
I am sorry to say, but this speaker came in completely unprepared. She said she was feeling under the weather and although I completely sympathize I do find it hard to believe she has ever taught a class, or done acting. She seemed nervous, unsure, and told us more about her personal life in a timeline fashion as opposed to things that are relevant to the industry. No offense, but I do not care about your break-ups and relationships unless it is pertinent to digital media or my career.
Answering Questions
This speaker had recently gotten a position incubating and creating an online community (sorry I am being so vague but I do not want to say something negative and have it get back to them or bash them in a public forum!). The problem with her talking about this is that nothing had happened yet. She was unable to answer questions and in my opinion did not even know the basics about social media or online community management. Every time someone asked her a question she completely evaded giving a straight answer.
Backed Projects
This project she was currently working on is funded and has quite a few connections. Unfortunately, judging from what she told me, it is going to seriously struggle. The press that it gets will come largely from the prestige of the funder and their ability to bring in talented guests. However, I really wish this speaker had shown us some examples of past success or what even made her qualified to run this project.
She literally gave us nothing. Her idealisms were good: foster community, build a network, give people a chance to engage – but she completely lacked the ability to articulate how she was doing this, how it had been done in the past, and how this was going to work. Which brings me to another issue.
No offense to the person who hired her, and IN ALL FAIRNESS, she may actually be qualified. But in this particular presentation I ended up being insulted that she might have gotten paid for this. Someone asked a question in the class: "What are some important things to take note of in terms of community management?" And she literally answered nothing. The woman asking the question ended up answering her own question and the speaker agreed with her.
I believe that this speaker was the perfect example of someone who has great talent as a host (this speaker did a lot of on camera work and hosting) being hired for something that she (as I said based on what I saw during this ONE day) is completely unqualified to do. Being good on camera does not mean that you can run a community. I thought about asking her about the main principles in being a community manager but thought it best to just keep quiet as to not come across rude or perhaps make someone feel bad when they already admitted they were feeling under the weather.
In conclusion, sorry for the downer post. From a positive perspective, if she can get hired to run an online community – I am not than qualified to do something bigger and better. And let me be clear – I am HAPPY to be wrong about her. I hope she is qualified and a completely different person on another day. But unfortunately the only people this speaker would be useful for are those that are just learning what a community manager is.
NOTE: This is part of a series based on classes I take on Thursday nights for my M.A. program. The class is taught by , a professor and media television and distribution entrepreneur. He is also the (to be changed to Digital Media soon). The class is lecture-based and usually involves a notable media industry expert coming in and talking for an hour, taking questions, followed by a couple hours of discussion and lecture from Charles. He has asked to reflect upon the opinions and news we hear, so I figured I might as well post them on my blog. Hopefully the insight of some of these leaders also causes you to think or reflect on the state and direction of digital media.

When new riders with developing skills come into these group rides, sometimes there is increased tension, nervousness and even accidents. This past Tuesday, an experienced rider from the UCLA team hit a cone that was not pointed out by the rider in front and ended up in the hospital. This was an entirely avoidable incident and indicates a need for a reminder about key points of etiquette and safety on group rides.
Please give this list a quick read and strive to apply these rules and tips in your own rides. It is incumbent on each of us to become more skilled, safer riders. Often, it is not YOU who will bear the burden of your unsafe riding but the people in the pack around you.
With that...
1. BE A GOOD GUEST - If you are not an established member of a peloton, please act as a good guest. "When in Rome..." Try and assimilate into the norms of the group. That includes pace, communication, and any special riding patterns such as rotating pace lines. Also, start nearer to the back as a sign of respect for the regulars on the ride.
2. RIDE A ROAD BIKE - I can't stress this enough. Ride a road bike with drop handlebars. Leave the TT bike at home. If you have one bike with clip on aero bars, take them off. TT bikes are inherently less stable, less nimble. At best, you are a riskier bike handler, at worst, if you get in your aerobars in a peloton you will rightly get your butt yelled at. NEVER get in aerobars in a pack unless you are on a Pro Tour team preparing for a Team Time Trial. You're not. So don't.
3. MAINTAIN THE PACE OF THE GROUP - Do not 'do your own thing'. If you are on a group ride, you need to maintain the pace of the pack. If that means going slower than you'd like, so be it. If it means hammering until your lungs burst, well...do it until you pop and then slide out the back. When riders vary the pace they create gaps behind them or allow gaps to form ahead of them. This yo-yos the pack, esp. the people near the back. Bad form. Don't do it.
4. POINT OUT OBSTRUCTIONS - Verbally call out and, when safe to do so, physically point out obstacles. This may include but is not limited to:
5. RIDE TWO WIDE - One of the great advantages of a group ride is that cars see us. I find it much safer to ride in a group than solo. But please...only two riders wide. And if there is a rotation in the group, watch what the experienced riders are doing. Are they moving up the right, rotating to the left and drifting back? Or just the opposite? Smoothly enter the rotation OR...feel free to stay near the back and stay out of the rotation if you are not yet comfortable.
6. DO NOT MOVE UP AT STOPLIGHTS - When the group comes to a stop at a light, you must NOT move up eight or ten spots. Stay where you are. The group needs to come to a stop in the same order that it was moving. Swarming the front of the group is bad etiquette. Move up when the group is rolling.
7. STAY BEHIND CARS AT LIGHTS - When you are solo (or if you are on a fixie, no helmet, smoking a cigarette) you might consider splitting the lanes and moving up through cars at a light. In a group, if you are at the front of the pack and arrive at a line of stopped cars...stay behind them.
8. WHEN IN DOUBT, PLAY IT COOL - Don't show up and be a loudmouth. Blend into the group and watch for cues from the veteran riders on what is expected in the group. Many of these standing rides have been going on for thirty years or more. Rides like Nichols Canyon, The Donut Ride, and Marina Loop have been around since long before most of us even started in the sport.
When you show up on a TT bike, bright red LATC jacket, double water bottle holders behind the seat, and your Ironman race number still stuck to your helmet or seatpost...you are basically asking to be singled out. Rightly or wrongly, all eyes are on you just *waiting* for you to blow it. Don't set yourself up for a situation. Tone it down, act like a respectful guest and you'll be fine.
Don't expect an outpouring of love. Roadies are a tough group. It ain't like a bunch of happy-go-lucky triathletes. And to some extent, the actions of one triathlete will color the way all of us are received in roadie pelotons. But the rewards for participating in group rides are undeniable - You'll ride smarter, ride better, ride harder and see incredible results.
As always, train safe and race hard. Hit me up with any questions.

Crisis? What Crisis?: Re-assessing the British 'winter of discontent' 1978-1979
11 September 2014
14:00 Talks Room
Over thirty years later, the 'winter of discontent' of 1978-1979 still resonates in British politics. On 22 January 1979, 1.5 million workers were on strike. Industrial unrest swept Britain in an arctic winter. Militant shop stewards blocked medical supplies to hospitals; mountains of rubbish remained uncollected; striking road hauliers almost brought the country to a standstill; even the dead were left unburied. Within weeks the Callaghan Government lost the 1979 election and Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister. Professor John Shepherd explores the origins, character and impact of a turbulent period of industrial unrest in British history when diplomatic relations between government and unions broke down.
John Shepherd is Professor of Modern British History at the University of Huddersfield and Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. He is the author of Crisis? What Crisis? The Callaghan Government and the British 'Winter of Discontent' (Manchester University Press, 2013). Currently, he is writing the biography of Jon Cruddas MP for Dagenham and Labour Party Policy Review Co-ordinator.
Book a place on this event.
This event is part of our themed programme. Diplomacy is at the heart of all human interaction. Whether between international states and colonies, monarchs and their ministers, the major players in the theatres of war, kith and kin, or friends and enemies: diplomacy - or lack of it - will play its part. This programme of events aims to reflect the broad spectrum of interpretations of historical diplomacy and the art of peace-making.

Gettysburg: The Graphic History of America's Most Famous Battle and the Turning Point of The Civil War (Zenith Graphic Histories)
Item Description
The Battle of Gettysburg is a landmark event in United States history. Widely recognized as the Civil War's turning point, it accounted for the most casualties of any battle during the war and spelled the beginning of the end for the Confederacy.
In this powerful graphic history, Wayne Vansant describes the history leading up to the Battle of Gettysburg, as well all of the major military events on July 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, including the famous fight for Little Round Top on the second day and the death march known as Pickett's Charge on the third and final day. He paints portraits of each army's leaders, such as Robert E. Lee, James Longstreet, George Meade, and the then little-known Joshua Chamberlain.
Vansant concludes a few months later at the dedication of the Soldier's National Cemetery in November, 1863, when Abraham Lincoln delivered one of the most iconic speeches of all time, the Gettysburg Address. Gettysburg delivers one of the hallmark events of American history in an exciting and innovative format.
"Wayne Vansant has authored a graphic account of the Battle of Gettysburg with rich illustrations and narrative that makes history come alive. This book will not only spark an interest in the terrible battle and sad aftermath, but will provide the reader with a good understanding of the men and armies memorialized at Gettysburg National Military Park today." - John Heiser, Historian, Gettysburg, PA

Chanel Fashion Advertising 1920-2012
I wanted to take a look at Chanel's fashion advertising from 1920-2012 and see how it has changed. Interestingly it hasn't changed that much. The pictures are still of either beauty shots of women with perfume or full length shots of women in Chanel clothes, or product shots of the perfume bottles.
These stunning pictures below are from the SS12 Chanel campaign. The shots are captured entirely in black and white over the water at Hotel du Cap Eden Roc in Antibes, France. The images are shot by Karl Lagerfeld and styled by Carine Roitfeld starring models Saskia de Brauw and Joan Smalls.
Directed by Laird & Partners they are really beautiful, fresh and modern. But they are also a little but retro and could have been taken in the 1950s or 1960s.
Photographed by Karl Lagerfeld
What is the future of fashion advertising?
We believe that fashion advertising agencies need to come up with fresh ways and new concepts to create exciting fashion campaigns for their clients. More often than not there is no concept and idea behind the fashion advertising campaign and the images are purely of beauty.
When I consulted at EURO RSCG on their first fashion advertising campaign I really felt excitement being surrounded by the conceptual thinkers you get in the traditional world of advertising.
Our fashion advertising campaign for Australian Merino Wool was exciting as we had a defined marketing strategy and objective for the campaign, a strong concept with beautiful art direction.
At Beloved Media, we strongly believe in ideas for fashion advertising campaigns. Strong ideas mixed with beautiful fashion art direction = exciting fashion advertising.

Storms forecast to linger - City's rain totals get substantial increase
Storms soaked parts of San Angelo and the surrounding area Sunday, officially bringing more than a half-inch of rain to the city.
Besides San Angelo, which registered 0.57 inches at Mathis Field/San Angelo Regional Airport, Kimble and McCullough counties saw significant rainfall throughout the day. Both recorded more than 1.5 inches of rain in their county seats.
Other areas, including Christoval and Robert Lee, saw minimal or no measurable amount of rain.
Heavy rain and thunderstorms remain in the forecast through today, mainly before 1 p.m. The National Weather Service calculated the chance of rain at 80 percent today and 30 percent tonight.
The chance of rain disappears from Tuesday's forecast before returning Wednesday, when there is a 20-percent chance of rain after 1 p.m. The possibility of rain remains in the forecast through Thursday before skies are predicted to clear for the weekend.
As of about 8 p.m. Sunday, San Angelo had received 1.18 inches of rain this month, bringing the yearly total to 3.59 inches since Jan. 1. The usual total for this time of year is 2.8 inches, 0.79 inches less than the current total.
According to the National Weather Service's San Angelo office, Sunday's storms were caused by upper-level disturbances and southeasterly winds from the Gulf of Mexico that carried moisture and fed storms into the evening. Additionally, a low-level trough to the west was expected to bring as much as two to three inches of rain through this morning.
Sporadic lightning was reported Saturday evening and early Sunday. No damage or flooding was reported in the area Sunday. However, a flash flood watch was issued for most of West Central Texas for Sunday evening.

Nashville, Tenn. (AP) -- Raymond L. Danner Sr., one of the founders of the restaurant chains Shoney's and Captain d's, has died.
He was 83.
The Danner Co., the firm he started after retiring in 1989 as Shoney's chairman, confirmed his death on Saturday at his Nashville home.
Francis Guess, Executive Vice President of the Danner Co., told the Tennessean that his life was a true rags-to-riches story.
Shoney's was started by Alex Schoenbaum in 1947 with one drive-in restaurant in Charleston, W.Va.

Idol Seiyuu Rundown -- 2channel post
2010 popular idol seiyuus
If you know more than eight, you've got it bad. (I know them all....)
Hirano Aya -- model idol-seiyuu activities. many antis.
Mizuki Nana -- always in the music charts. also quite active as a seiyuu.
Kugimiya Rie -- from shotas to tsunderes. her addicts are many.
Inoue Marina -- no model's face, but wide-ranging talents.
Chihara Minori -- became famous as Nagato Yuki. most active as a singer.
Koshimizu Ami -- became known by her strong performances.
Horie Yui -- past her peak, but with undimmed popularity.
Hikasa Youko -- got her break with K-On. aggressive performer and voice.
Hanazawa Kana -- despite some dead-voiced performances and a (blabbermouth) boyfriend, her real ability is helping her grow into Osawa Office's next ace.
Tomatsu Haruka -- she has real ability, but her agency over-promotes her, and she has many antis.
Yuuki Aoi -- began as a child actress. increased visibility since 2009 has her popularity shooting upward.
Itou Kanae -- Amu-chan (in Shugo Chara). won a new seiyuu award and is riding the wave.
Kitamura Eri -- many talents, wide acting range, and real ability. but her image is still weak.
Toyosaki Aki -- began to stand out in 2008. now one of the young seiyuus riding the wave.
Taketatsu Ayana -- got her break with K-On. I"m Enterprise's new weapon.
Iguchi Yuka -- got her break as Index. Osawa Office's new weapon, but not blessed with roles.
Kanemoto Hisako -- stood out in Sora no Woto. chosen to play Squid Girl this fall (a role Iguchi Yuka was expected to get). a new seiyuu riding the wave.
Gotou Saori -- still invisible.
Here are their photos, in the order listed (l-r):

I know them all, except for the last two. However, while I had never heard of Kanemoto Hisako simply because I never watched any of the anime she played in, it looks like I've heard Gotou Saori in quite a few shows, yet I still had no idea who she was... "sill invisible" is spot on, lol.
Most of the descriptions are fairly accurate, I guess. I had no idea Tomatsu Haruka had so many antis though. Hocchan past her peak? Sadly, it looks like that may be the case. She's still one of my all time favorite (noticed her in School Rumble).
My favorite of the list right now is Hanazawa Kana, without a doubt. And I think it'll stay that way for a long time. I just wish they'd cast her in more varied roles... I think she has the talent to pull it off, she just needs an opportunity to showcase it.

Know them all except for 2nd last one, damn.
I think Inoue Marina is cute too and I like some of her performances, not all though. As for over-promoted, I should think Hirano Aya is the one. Do like Koshimizu Ami, and yes, WTF is Gotou still unknown?
Hocchan FTW.

Interesting how many of them have roles in a handful of shows (e.g. Rosario+Vampire, Saki, Mayoi Neko Overrun, Ichiban Ushiro, Sora no Woto).
I'm surprised that Yui Horie would be deemed past her peak after her recent turns in Saki, Mayoi Neko Overrun and most especially Bakemonogatari.
After her work in Mayoi and Railgun, I'm looking forward to watching (well hearing) Itou Kanae in Ookami-san.

Saorin's manager really needs a wake-up call; you know you've got a problem on your hands when you have a parrot (Inko-chan in Toradora!) and a background-background character (Ai in Zetsubou-sensei) amongst your most popular roles.
And then you have an even greater problem on your hands when people call themselves your fans and then go on to mistake you for Goto Yuuko or Hayami Saori, like I do. *shrug*
As for Horie - well, she still gets major roles because she's a solid voice actor who gets her job done well, but her star is slightly dimming - just not the good old School Rumble days anymore.

You have post about Hirano's antis before. What about Tomatsu's antis? What are some common grounds that they use to attack her? D:
- 07 July, 2010
- hashi said...
@anonymous -- I wasn't previously aware of Tomatsu's antis, so I read the anti- thread in 2channel, etc. She doesn't have as many antis as Hirano, but they seem to concentrate on her being pushed harder than she deserves by her agency and Sony. They say she isn't as pretty as people think, she just has good legs.
And interestingly, they call her an "anime killer." There's a long list of studios that folded (Kemeko Deluxe), or where the director left (Basquash), or where the anime had bad ratings (Cross Game), or where the author's wife left him (ToLove-ru), or where a manga ceased publication (Kannagi), etc., after she had been involved in an anime.
There was also some long and convoluted explanation of why she was Korean, or associated with Korea, despite having been born in Nagoya.
@another anonymous -- I first heard Gotou Saori in Rakugo Tennyou Oyui, and I thought she was the best thing in that show, rally excellent in all ways. Since then, she hasn't had great roles.
She and Katou Emiri did a series of nice videos for their agency, 81 Produce, called Natural Voice - 81 Room. In those, she is just devastatingly cute and a bit boke. She apparently has the reputation of squeezing cute girls' flesh when she can, and is included in collections of supposed yuri seiyuus.

I am sort of wondering... why Yukarin isn't there, despite B Gata H Kei garnering a lot of attention (even mine...)
and don't worry hashi... I know all of them too.. xD!
@Mizuki Nana - She actually don't have a lot of roles recently, except for her ongoing HeartCatch Precure! and then her new Kuroshitsuji II (And then Hirano Aya's there too... this anime is giving me reasons to watch it.)
In my opinion the seiyuu this season with the most roles is Shizuka Itou. xD!
about Aya Hirano, hmm basically that's rate, I heard her fan threads tie up with her anti threads.
And I didn't know Haruka has a lot of antis now, that's new to me.
Well if Hocchan has a lot of antis... I won't wonder too. xD

Hashi, if you are not too busy, can you please elaborate a few sentences more on Tomacchan's Korean ancestry? Thanks!
- 09 July, 2010
