Best of the Bassmen
Michael who?
Not even close--Missourian Denny Brauer was 1998 Angler of the Year on the professional bass fishing tour and is the first outdoor-person ever featured by Wheaties on their "Breakfast of Champions" cereal box.
Not bad for a kid who taught himself to fish and who discovered that he had a talent for catching bass that not only left other anglers bobbing in his wake, but that also makes him a fine living--he is the career top money winner on the B.A.S.S. circuit at about $1.5 million.
He learned much of his trade on what he thinks is the best bass lake in the country, Lake of the Ozarks. "It's amazing how it holds up year after year," he says. He can be on the water in minutes from his Camden County home.
There's a wrought-iron bass on the gate fronting the home that is set well back from a county highway on 500 acres. A dozen gobblers often strut on the back lawn, and the rolling, wooded Ozark hills stretch away far to the south.
Brauer and his wife, Shirley, love the home but don't spend much time there. The pro bass tour is demanding, and when he's not fishing tournaments, he's at sports shows giving fishing seminars or otherwise involved in the business of fishing.
It's a big business. He has designed a lure that is the current top seller nationwide, and he has business ties with an array of outdoor marketers, from automobile dealers to catalog outfits.
The Wheaties' tie-in came about because of the Angler of the Year honor. General Mills had agreed that whoever won the title would be featured on the cereal boxes, in company with 75 years of other athletes from Mary Lou Retton to Michael Jordan.
"Boy that got me fired up," Brauer says. "I fished as hard as I could. It was definitely something I went after and everything worked out right." Brauer won four major tournaments in 1998, including his 16th try at the Bass Masters Classic, the World Series of bass fishing. "It was a wonderful year. Everything came together and because of the successes in 1998 and previous years, it's given me a chance to be an ambassador for bass fishing," Brauer says.
But the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) protested. Ingrid Newkirk, president of PETA, said, "Anglers have no place next to real sportsmen like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods,

I have a completly stock 2005 Eastern Shovelhead. I either want to get a new 3-piece crank or a new cassette rim. Which part do you guys think I should get? I dont know how to put links on here, but the bike is on danscomp.com.

I have a completly stock 2005 Eastern Shovelhead. I either want to get a new 3-piece crank or a new cassette rim. Which part do you guys think I should get? I dont know how to put links on here, but the bike is on danscomp.com.
What cranks and rims do you have right now?
Cassette rim?
Cut him some slack. Cassette hub. A rim with a cassette hub. Cassette. 8 track.
Why don't you wait to see which breaks first or becomes a pain in the a$$ first. I suspect it will be the bargain, looseball, chinese 3pc. cranks. Is that a sealed cassette on that thing? The description on the Eastern and Dans websites aren't very clear.
What is with Dans description "100% chromoly top and down tube"? Are they trying to be misleading? It either has a "100% cromo frame" or it has a "cromo top and down tube"...
Considering this bike isn't full cromo, don't waste your money upgrading anything. wait til you can afford a full cromo bike with good cranks and wheels or live with the Shovelhead without upgrading.
Sorry, just noticed you already own the bike - not thinking of buying the bike then upgrading. My mistake. In this case, definitely wait until something starts giving you hassles then spend your money fixing the problem.
The cranks on it right now are just stock eastern 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks. The rims are stock 48H high-wall alloy rims with a cassette hub on them. Bikebros, I plan on just building my bike up as I get the money and eventually get to where I can get a new frame. Once I figure out if im getting new cranks or rims i'm going to be ordering a bunch of parts from dans to upgrade my bike.
If you've already got tubular cro-mo cranks and 48h wheels, why waste money now? I don't mind spending money, but I don't see why you'd want to replace those parts first. Just save for a frame. If it was your plan to replace wheels and cranks right away, you should have started with a better frame.
Watch yourself, old man. We don't mess with that all up in here.Originally Posted by Expatriate
If there was a way to fit in Hungry Man TV dinners - the ones in foil, I would have. By the way, a customer complained yesterday that the freewheel on his son's BMX blew it's guts out after only 8 months. I had to excuse myself when he proceeded to buy the kid a GT Zone.Originally Posted by Beerman
wait, do you mean he bought the kid a new bike just cause of the freewheel?
No. But he complained about the last crappy bike he bought, then bought another crappy one.
Jeez, I keep buying Yugos, and they keep falling apart...
Get the cranks.
...and this is the 3rd kia rio this week
Your bike ALLREADY has a cassette hub and 3pc cranks (stock), wait till something breaks before you go out and buy something your dont need...
why would u need a new crank or cassette wheel.cassette wheels are expesive. maybe just buy a double or triple wall rim(just rim) and get it built with ur old hub and spokes. cheaper than a new wheel.
I have an Odyssey procassette wheel w/11t driver, 3pawl engagement. Can I replace the driver with a 4 pawl driver?
I know that you can use a 3-pawl driver with the 4-pawl cassette, but I'm not sure about the other way around.
Email Chris C or Nuno O at Odyssey, and they'll get back to you pretty quickly.

Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ryan Dungey celebrated his first AMA Motocross 250 class championship at the final round of the series at Steel City Raceway in Delmont, Pennsylvania, on Saturday afternoon. Dungey came into the final round leading the championship by 17 points and when the gate dropped, the young Minnesota rider did not disappoint. Dungey rode two impressive motos on his Rockstar Makita Suzuki RM-Z250, finishing second overall after carding two second-place motos finishes.
Round 8 – AMA Motocross Series – Washougal Motocross Park
Chad Reed continues to dominate AMA Motocross as the twotime AMA Supercross Champion picked up another victory this past weekend. Reed won both 450 class motos to take the overall victory at Washougal Motocross Park in Washougal, Washington, on Saturday afternoon. With this victory, the Australian extended his lead in the overall championship points standings. Rockstar Makita Suzuki teammate Michael Byrne also had cause to celebrate.
Chad Reed captured his second AMA Motocross 450 class victory at Spring Creek Motocross Park in Millville, Minnesota, on Saturday afternoon (Round 7 – AMA Motocross Series). The two-time AMA Supercross Champion started the day by getting the holeshot in the first moto and finishing second. Then he completed the day by winning the second moto and taking the overall victory. Currently, Reed leads the overall championship points in AMA Motocross.
Rockstar Makita Suzuki teammate Michael Byrne also had a lot to celebrate at the Millville race.
Chad Reed extended his AMA Motocross championship points lead after carding another podium finish this year at Red Bud Track 'N' Trail in Buchanan, Michigan, on Saturday. The two-time AMA Supercross Champion picked up a second-place overall result after winning the first moto and finishing third in the second one. Rockstar Makita Suzuki teammate Michael Byrne enjoyed a very consistent race weekend.
Mike Alessi won his second-consecutive AMA Motocross race at Freestone County Raceway in Wortham, Texas, on Saturday afternoon. Formerly a runner-up at the Texas track, Alessi won both 30-minute motos to take the overall win and to pick up his second AMA Motocross victory of the season. This win allows Alessi to extend his lead in the overall championship points standings.
Mike Alessi celebrated his first career AMA Motocross 450-class victory and took over the points lead at the Hangtown Motocross Classic in Sacramento, California, on Saturday afternoon. Alessi rode two impressive motos on his Rockstar Makita Suzuki RM-Z450, winning the first and finishing in the runner-up spot in the second.
Although that performance was enough to secure the overall victory, the winner of the second moto was penalized by the AMA, which gave Alessi 1-1 moto victories as well as the overall he'd already earned.
Ryan Dungey celebrated his first race of the 2009 AMA Motocross series with a victory on Saturday afternoon at Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino, California. The young Minnesota rider carded second- and first-place moto finishes to take the overall victory in the 250 class.
In the 450 class, Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Mike Alessi enjoyed a second-place overall finish, thanks to third- and second-place finishes in the two motos.

I'm living in a very rural area south of Phoenix and because of where I live never have anyone to ride with. Thats fine I guess but it increases my anxiety about breaking down out in the desert and having a long walk back to whereever.
For years I've ridden my road bike with SPeedplay pedals and cant complain much. Out here however the sand and grit causes me to have major maintainance time, and if I ever had to, walking in Sidi Genius Road shoes with Speedplay cleats is a short distance exercise only!
I bought some eggbeater pedals for my mountain bike and have zero complaints, THese pedals are great for the purpose and I am serioulsy considering replacing the Speedplays with one of the Eggbeater models. I'd like to be able to ride both bikes with the same Sidi Dominator MTB shoes.
The Eggbeater Candy model looks good - because it seems to provide a bit more support under the foot than the minimalist plain Eggbeater models - as does the road specific "Quattro". My question re: the Quattro is will it work with MTB shoes or only smooth soled treadless Road shoes?
Anyone have any relevent experience they are willing to share using Eggbeater pedals (any models) on a road bike?
Thanks much

Chinese New Year and Crane House
Chinese New Year, also known as Spring Festival or Lunar New Year, has been around for thousands of years. It has its roots in Chinese legend and tradition; its celebration is believed to ensure good luck in the coming year.
Chinese New Year begins with the new moon on the first day of the new year and ends on the full moon 15 days later.
Several countries observe the festival outside of mainland China. These include Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Singapore.
Celebrations can also be found in Australia, Canada, and the United States, although Chinese New Year isnt an official holiday in these countries.
Many locals celebrate Chinese New Year along with Crane House, The Asia Institute in Louisville. Their Annual Asian New Year Dinner and Auction is the organizations largest fundraiser.
However, Crane House celebrates Asian culture all year long, offering a variety of art, educational and appreciation programs for all ages. This includes cooking and language classes, exhibits and even business-related services.
- There are three ways to name a Chinese year: by animal, by formal name, or in terms of 60-year cycles (a cycle equals a century, or 100 years). 2010 is the year of Geng Yin (formal name or Stem Branch) and Year 4707 in the Chinese Calendar. In the United States, the Chinese year is most often referred to by its animal name. 2010 is the Year of the Tiger.
- Chinese New Year ends with the Lantern Festival, on the 15th day of the celebration. This culminates in nighttime lantern displays and a parade.
- Postal services in the U.S., Canada and Australia honor Chinese New Year with themed postage stamps.
For more information on Crane House, The Asia Institute, check out our Season One segment and our interview with Crane House Director Bryan Warren.
- Program 416
- On this edition of "Louisville Life", get a healthy serving from "Chef Nancy", meet a woman who holds the fate of some lucky Kentuckians in her hands, celebrate the Chinese New Year with Crane House and enjoy the culinary delights at the . (#416)

The Culture of Secrets
An alphabet of Italian food, family, and pride: An essay by a Scholastic Writing Award–winning high schooler.
Note: Slate is proud to publish two of this year's winners of the Scholastic Writing Awards, honoring the best teen writers in the country. This piece, which was part of a gold-medal-winning portfolio, is by Anthony DeSantis, a senior at the South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities.
You can read Isabella Giovannini's "Death of a Sunflower," part of her gold-medal-winning portfolio, as well.
From the Latin Antonius. I never believe Papa Nicki, my great-grandfather, when he tells me that my name means "worthy of praise." I tell him too many people are named Anthony for it to mean anything special, and yet, he has a way of saying the word that's different than when he calls any of the other Anthonys in our family by their name. This is especially true now that we both knew that he's dying.
"Anthony," he says to me from his hospital bed. My great-grandmother cries in the corner, but only he and I exist in that cramped room. He grabs a limp hold of my arm and tells me to have many children—preferably sons. My family has told me this all my life. "We need you to continue the family line," Papa Nicki says, "to not let it wither away in this country." I only bring myself to tell him I love him.
An Italian dessert, also what I think of when I think of marriage. Grandma Della puts two of her homemade chocolate biscotti on a plate for me alongside a glass of milk. My grandparents' house is quiet enough for me to hear the rigid cookie crunch in my mouth as I chew. I eat my biscotti with my grandfather as Grandma Della cleans the kitchen. He tells her what she could have done to make dinner better and asks her to pour him more coffee. When I fall in love, this isn't what I want it to be like.
First boyfriend. He has rich, Charlestonian blood in his veins and so I make room for one more in the closet. "Please, my family will love us both even more when we come out," I say. He asks me when I think that's going to happen. "Soon," I say, "real soon."
Grandma Della tells me that the Vietnam War hadn't even lasted a week before she and my grandfather rushed to a courthouse somewhere in Brooklyn to get their marriage license. She now loves him so much that she cooks perfect meals for him, does his laundry with precision, and cleans his house with the knowledge that he won't always say thank you.
One day while we shop through the cleaning supplies aisle of Publix, my sister asks our parents why they've never taught us to speak Italian. They explain that they never learned it themselves. Our grandparents can't speak it, either. Their parents could, but only because they had to serve as translators for their parents, the first of our family in America. I realize howtrapped I feel in three generations of English.
Soon after, I purchase a book of Italian grammar and begin to flip through the pages. A boy I've had a crush on since grade school sees me conjugate the verb "negare" and asks me why I feel I have to teach myself Italian. I don't answer. They he asks me what "negare" means and I say, "To deny."
I have it all figured out once. I will marry my preschool sweetheart, Catalina Bernadini. We will have 10 children, all sons, and name them all Anthony. That would please Papa Nicki. After my parents pull me out of Catholic school and dump me into a public school, though, plans change. Thank God.
Gay (An obvious choice, but hear me out.)
"So at that art school you're going to," my grandfather says over Sunday dinner one summer afternoon, "what are you going to do if, you know, one of those gay guys comes up and asks to see your salsice?" Because clearly gay men are only after thesalsice.
I tell my grandfather that I'll say, "Sorry—not interested," and he laughs.
"Hey that's my guy," my grandfather says, "My guy's not a faggot." I don't sleep that night.
H is silent in Italian.
Francesco Gaggi came to America with $7 in his pocket and spoke no English. How he became one of the most prominent barbers in Long Island is a mystery. Francesco's son is my Papa Nicki, and he tells me about how his father regularly took his whole family to see operas in Manhattan. Each of the five children received private piano lessons, prided themselves on the fine quality of their clothes, and never questioned the process of Americanization. "That's how we got to where we are now," Papa Nicki says. I regret never asking him, "Where exactly do you think we are?"
In Italian, none of these letters exist.
One of the first things I learn while trying to teach myself Italian is that love is a difficult word to translate. The concept itself is usually referred to as l'amore, but the action can either be amare or volere bene, which literally means, "to like well." I sometimes spend long and pointless nights in an F-150 with a boy I know will later call what we did "unclean in God's eyes." The Italian word for such a thing is still unknown to me.
She's a confident Irish woman who says Connor is her favorite of my friends after the three of us and my father go out to eat one night. I think that obviously, she didn't see us hold hands under the table. One day Connor forces me to come out to her. I curl up in a corner of my mother's bedroom and try to stop myself from crying while she and Connor sit on the bed and laugh at how overdramatic I can be.

Is it normal to have a low milk supply after only 7 weeks of Breast feeding?
I think my 7 week old gets upset while breastfeeding because there isn't enough Milk for him during his feedings.

The only ways to judge your milk supply are diapers and weight gain. If he's peeing enough (at least 5 to 6 very wet diapers in 24 hours, poops can be anything from multiple per day to one every few weeks) and he's still gaining well, your supply is fine. Baby's behavior does not tell you what your supply is. 7 to 9 weeks are the worst for fussiness. Just feed completely on demand. If he's extra fussy, nurse again even if it's been just a few minutes since the last time. You can't nurse too much and if it's a growth spurt, then it's what he needs.posted 11/20/2012 by emmara
What makes you say that you have low supply? At 7 weeks old your body has likely adapted to baby's needs so you won't get the engorged feeling as often, but that doesn't mean you aren't producing milk. If baby is fussy check to make sure he is latching properly and keep an eye open for any signs of food intolerances, etc. But like the other poster said, this is a period where fussiness peaks so this is COMPLETELY normal. So many people buy into the idea that they have supply problems when it is actually a non issue because of lack of support, so as long as baby is gaining weight and going through diapers please feel assured that your supply is NOT the problem.posted 11/21/2012 by andarte

It's hard to imagine that anyone who's deeply interested in the Civil War didn't make it to the theaters to see Steven Spielberg's Lincoln during its incredibly successful run up to the Oscars, where Daniel Day-Lewis stomped the competition to win Best Actor but the movie lost out to Argo in most of the other major categories.
Lincon is out now on home video. They sent us the 4-disc Blu-ray/DVD/Digtial copy combo pack, but it's also available to rent or buy digitally from iTunes and Amazon or you can get a 2-disc Blu-ray/DVD combo pack or a single-disc DVD.
If you haven't seen the move: Lincoln is a huge surprise after the sweep and bombast of Spielberg's WWI spectacle War Horse. Lincoln feels far more dramatic, but the only real action comes in the opening scene of the movie. The rest is (mostly) guys (and Mary Todd Lincoln) arguing about the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution (the one that abolished slavery) and making some points about the historically messy political process in Washington.
Lincoln holds up over several viewings and all the other actors seem inspired by Day-Lewis' work. There are notable performances by Tommy Lee Jones, Sally Field, David Strathairn, Hal Holbrook, James Spader, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jared Harris, Jackie Earle Haley, John Hawkes, Bruce McGill, Tim Blake Nelson and Walton Goggins, all of whom must've taken a pay cut to make this movie possible.
Spielberg based his movie on Doris Kearns Goodwin's bestelling history Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln and hired his Munich screenwriter Tony Kushner to write a script based on the book. The first draft came back at 550 pages, as evidenced by the above photo included in one of the documentaries included as one of the extras on this release. Since they weren't going to make a 9-hour movie, Spielberg and Kushner decided to focus on the bipartisan dealmaking that led to passage of the 13th Amendment. The fact that we live in a time when Congress seems incapable of making those kinds of deals was most likely not a coincidence.
The Blu-ray transfer of this film is magnificent. The image is at least as good as what I saw in the theater and the sound mix comes across far better. The most interesting documentary extras are only on the 4-disc Blu-ray. "Living With Lincoln" and "In Lincoln's Footsteps" offer some real insights into how the filmmakers subbed Richmond, VA for Washington and what kind of decisions went into giving the movie its first-class period detail.
The documentaries on the main Blu-ray (one of which is also on the DVD) are shorter and less detailed but they're also worth watching. The digital copy is an iTunes or Windows media download that lives on your computer or can be streamed from the iTunes store to an iPhone or Apple TV, something that still seems easier than the UltraViolet scheme used by other studios. Since the 4-disc Blu-ray package currently costs the same as the 2-disc version at Amazon, there's no reason you shouldn't go all the way if you're looking to by.
The digital and streaming versions look just about as good as the movie will once it shows up on cable TV next year. Lincoln's a good title for the library and most certainly a movie you can use to demo why you spent all that money on a home entertainment system.
The clip below shows off a lot of the interviews included on the main disk extras, even though it's not the exact same versions you'll get on the home video version.

Seton Edgar B. Davis Hospital has added a new tool in the fight against breast cancer. Computer-aided detection (CAD) uses a computer to analyze mammograms. The computer can alert the physician to take a closer look at subtle warning signs that might easily be missed.
The use of CAD can help radiologists detect up to 68 percent of actionable missed cancers an average of 15 months earlier than screening mammography alone. Early detection of breast cancer saves lives and often allows for less costly and less invasive cancer treatment options than when detected at a later stage.

- An estimated 246,660 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to occur among women in the U.S. during 2016.
- Cancerous tumors in the breast usually grow very slowly so that by the time one is large enough to be felt as a lump, it may have been growing for as long as 10 years.
- About 85 percent of breast cancers originate in the mammary ducts.
- Breast cancer is the most common cancer among African American and Hispanic/Latina women.
- Studies also show that even though Hispanic/Latina women have lower breast cancer rates, they are 20 percent more likely to die from the disease.
Important Information About Mammograms*:
- Experts recommend all women age 40 and over get a mammogram every year and perhaps earlier if there is a family history of breast cancer.
- Getting tested regularly for breast cancer is the best way for women to lower their risk of dying from the disease. Screening tests can find cancer early, when it's most treatable.
- If you have insurance, most plans cover it. Medicare also pays for mammograms.

Knights of the Old Republic
Lethan Vao Family
There's a trend going around if you haven't noticed. I remember when people went through a phase where there were Mandalorian skins being produced left and right at an incredible rate. Recently
Show All
Show All
it's been changing Mission Vao and sometimes it comes with a change to her brother Griff in the first [i]Knights of the Old Republic[/i] game. Well, since I brought it up, you can only guess what this is. :p Ecce is bringing his version of the popular Twi'lek and her brother. This one only focuses on one color change, the red colored Twi'lek. So now you have Mission and Griff with red coloring along with some minor changes to their clothing and Mission's underwear is now black. The trend also has it that the contrasts on the skins are very high, though this one is much better compare to the other releases. The contrast doesn't need nearly as much work. Maybe someone who is inspired by this skinning trend will decide to work on one carefully and get the contrast right. Only time will tell. Enjoy! :D [b]Note:[/b] Please leave the author feedback, especially if you download this mod and use it. It really helps encourage the author to make more mods in the future. -Shem

Inside you are more than thirty different organs, which include more than two hundred different cell types and about 100 trillion cells. Each organ is patrolled by your immune system, which is constantly performing surveillance for possible threats. Following are some of the major players.
Bone marrow, the reddish-looking material inside nearly every bone in the human body, is where all of the blood cells are produced.
Inside the marrow, on an inner framework, lie the bone marrow stem cells. These cells are constantly dividing, producing huge numbers of cells that turn into red and white blood cells.
The bone marrow stem cells continue to divide, even as they keep making red and white blood cells. And just as a couple of million are being produced every second, the same number are being gobbled up and destroyed in the spleen, which is, in effect, the cells' decommissioning center. The spleen is where blood cells are taken out of circulation once they've completed their useful life cycle (see below).
This process-birth in the bone marrow, death in the spleen- should be evenly balanced. If it isn't, you will be prone to a blood disorder. For example, if your system is destroying more red blood cells than it's making, you'll become anemic, which will make you feel tired and appear pale. If you're making more than you are destroying, you'll become polycythemic, or suffer from blood that is overcrowded with red blood cells.
Once the cells form in the bone marrow, they remain there and mature, at which time they exit and enter the bloodstream. There they circulate, the red cells carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide, and the white cells patrolling for invaders.
The thymus, located in front of your windpipe in the upper chest region, is the most mysterious organ in your homeland.
In infants, the thymus is, relatively speaking, huge. It grows until about puberty and then starts to shrink. By old age, the thymus has almost completely disappeared.
The thymus serves the role of a kind of boot camp for the white blood cells called T cells-it's where these cells go to mature. The thymus is especially active early in life because, during youth, T cells are constantly being exposed to new things, from new proteins in your diet to new germs. These T cells need to have a place to congregate, share information, and learn about threats and attacks.
For example, let's say one of the cells in your immune system comes in contact with a foreign invader. It now has to communicate that information to other cells so they can become aware of the invader too. The thymus is where this information is shared and training occurs.
Why does the thymus later atrophy? Science doesn't know for certain, but as you grow older, your immune system has less to learn. So the current thinking is that there may be less need for a large thymus as we age. But although the thymus is not as big or as active as it was when we were young, the smaller thymus is still able to help train T cells well into our eighties, nineties, and beyond.
Another important training center and meeting ground for the immune system is the spleen. This large organ, about the size of your fist, is located on the left side of your belly, tucked under your ribs.
The spleen is a common meeting place for all the immune system's cells. Blood routes to the spleen, where the cells circulate and mingle, allowing them to tell each other what they've learned, what they've seen, what they've killed, and what antibodies they've made.
The heart pumps the blood around the body about once every minute, which means each blood cell might find itself in the spleen about 1,400 times a day. That's a great many trips.
The spleen is also important because it's where the body decides if a red or a white blood cell has gotten too old. Once the decision is made, the cell is decommissioned and disassembled and its building blocks are recycled.
You can live without a spleen; if it ruptures, the liver can take over its functions. Still, if your spleen is removed or no longer works, your immunity becomes impaired; people without a spleen are more susceptible to infections.
Nearly everyone knows about the bloodstream: it's a road map of blood vessels that allow our blood to circulate through our body. But few people realize that another important, and completely different, circulatory system exists in the body-the lymphatic system, which circulates our lymph.
Lymph is a clear fluid that travels through your body, cleaning your tissues and keeping them nourished. Just as blood circulates back to the heart through our veins, lymph must also be recycled and return to the heart, which it does through the lymphatic system.
The lymphatic system is something of a secondary transportation system for your homeland troops. Like the circulatory system, it is composed of a series of vessels and tubes. The major difference between the circulatory and the lymphatic systems is that the latter lacks a pump to move the fluid it carries. For the blood, that pump is the heart. For lymph, the flow back to the heart is achieved through a more passive process involving muscle contractions and gravity.
You may have noticed that your feet swell during a long journey on an airplane or in a car. This is due to lack of movement; your muscles haven't been able to circulate lymph, so because of gravity, it collects at the lowest part of your body-your feet.
You also may be aware of a condition known as edema, which is swelling that results from a collection of lymph. Edema occurs when excess lymph fluid cannot be returned back into circulation.
The bloodstream is extensive, branching out from its main trunk, the aorta, as well as smaller arteries, arterioles, capillaries, veins, and venules, but there is still a large portion of our tissues the capillaries can't reach.
Here is where the lymph comes into play. Nutrients such as glucose (blood sugar) must be helped so they can reach and nourish each and every cell, including those the bloodstream can't reach. That happens via the lymph fluid, which bathes and nourishes all of the body's tissues. And once those nutrients have been used, the fluid must be recycled or your body would swell up like the Michelin tire man.
Along the course of the lymphatic system are way stations known as lymph nodes. These are outposts whose sentries make sure nothing passes through the lymphatic channels that shouldn't. The lymphatic system could provide easy and direct access for a germ or microbe to our heart and bloodstream, so to prevent that from happening, lymphocytes (T cells and B cells) aggregate in lymph nodes, waiting for something bad to pass by. When they spot that something, the node cells attack before it can venture into the heart and bloodstream.
When a problem is stirring in your body, the lymph nodes become enlarged. For example, if you have swollen glands in the neck, your nodes may have found some virus that landed in the back of the throat and is trying to gain access to the lungs or bloodstream. Lymph nodes responding to some infection can become swollen almost anywhere: in the groin, neck, chest, abdomen, and so on.
Probably the most important cells of our immune system, as well as the best-known and the most numerous, are the white blood cells. This term distinguishes them from the red blood cells, the disk-like cells responsible for carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide from our lungs throughout the rest of the body.
Most people probably think of white blood cells simply as formless globules floating through our bloodstream, randomly patrolling for microbes. But our white blood cells are very purposeful and deliberate in their surveillance, and there are actually many different types of white blood cells, each with specialized functions. And these white blood cells are found not just in the blood, but throughout our bodies-in each of our organs, from the brain to the liver to the lungs, as well as throughout the lymphatic system.
The first line of immune cells are the lymphocytes. Cyte means "cell," so lymphocytes are the lymph or lymphatic cells. The ones you most need to know about are the B lymphocytes (better known as B cells) and the T lymphocytes (better known as T cells).
B cells were so named because they were first studied in the bursa of Fabricius, an organ unique to birds. In humans, B cells actually originate in the bone marrow.
The B cells have two major jobs: they maintain a memory database, and they create complex protein structures that are used as weapons against threats and invaders. These complex structures are called antibodies, about which more is coming.
B cells keep a record of every single interaction your immune system has ever had. This means that within your body, a record of every germ and virus you've ever encountered, every protein you've ever eaten, every piece of pollen you've ever inhaled, has been stored in a memory bank-not in your brain, but in your immune system. Think about it: for each of these interactions, there is a B cell floating around inside your body that has retained a memory of the encounter.
Your immune system's memory is, in some ways, more impressive than your brain's. Most of us can only evoke faint memories from early childhood. Your immune system, however, remembers your first vaccination, which probably occurred in the earliest days of your life. Research now suggests that your immune system even stores memories from when you were still developing in your mother's womb.
Shortly after birth, you were probably immunized with vaccines for diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough). Although the memory of that immunization may fade somewhat, and a booster may be needed to remind your immune system, some remnant of that memory lasts a lifetime.
These stored memories are critically important for your survival; they are what make you immune to becoming sick more than once from certain illnesses.
For example, after a bout of chicken pox in childhood, you become immune-you usually can't catch chicken pox again as an adult. Likewise, after being immunized with a shot for tetanus, you won't succumb to the bacterial infection that causes tetanus. Your B cells now have the memory stored away and prevent you from coming down with the disease.
A memory of exposure to prior threats is crucial because it allows your immune system to respond more quickly and effectively to serious threats if you are re-exposed. Without such a memory, and a rapid response, exposure to ailments such as tetanus or diphtheria could be fatal.
It's also important for your immune system to remember prior contacts and exposures even if they're not potentially lethal, as it makes your immune system less likely to cause an overwhelming reaction when encountering nonlethal microbes. If, for example, your immune system overreacted every time you ate a particular food, or breathed in a particular pollen, you would forever exist in a state of immune hyperactivity and unnecessary battle.
One example of an overreaction by our immune system is an allergy, which can trigger serious problems like asthma or even anaphylaxis, which can be lethal. We'll talk more about this later. B cells possess another important function. They make antibodies, whose role in your internal homeland security is similar to that of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Here B cells work closely with T cells to build complex mechanical and chemical structures that act as deadly weapons to neutralize invaders.
Antibodies are complex proteins manufactured to exact specifications. Each antibody is built by the B cells to neutralize one specific invader. Medical science does not yet fully understand the way in which these antibodies are made. What is known is that B cells team up with macrophages in order to create them.
First, what is a macrophage? Phage comes from the Greek phagon, meaning "to eat." Macro, from the Greek macron, means "big." Thus a macrophage is a "big eater."
Macrophages constantly patrol the body, which means they can be considered your body's military police, or MPs. The MPs are constantly on the lookout, in every organ in your body. Always moving, they crawl between the trillions of cells in all of your organs like an amoeba might crawl across a petri dish.
These bloblike, voracious eaters are searching for any invaders that might have sneaked into your body. When an MP encounters one, it will capture it, cut it up into a thousand tiny pieces, and then take the bits and show them around the body to let the other troops, such as the B cells, know exactly what the invader looks like.
Sound overly dramatic? Actually, it's quite close to the literal truth. When macrophages encounter an invader, they grab it with amoebalike fingers and engulf it, swallowing the invader whole so that it becomes a captive. The macrophage then releases enzymes to digest it, breaking it down into tiny bits. These little sections become pieces of proteins-small enough to be moved around but large enough to provide a unique "fingerprint" identifying the invader the MP just gobbled up and digested.
The MP next spits up these little digested bits of protein fingerprints and displays them on its own surface, similar to placing a "Wanted" poster for the rest of your immune system to see. Now the B cells move in, going up to that "Wanted" poster, or that piece of the invader, and learning its shape. They then build an antibody that suits the shape of the invader perfectly. This antibody can now recognize and attach itself to the invader the next time it comes into contact with it.
The B cells next start making millions and millions of copies of this antibody, releasing them into the bloodstream. They fl oat through our blood, and if they come into contact with one of these microbial invaders, the antibodies immediately attach themselves to it, triggering a series of events that will ultimately kill it.
Our B cells manufacture antibodies to exceptionally tight specifications so that the antibodies are specific to one particular germ. And the antibodies must be a perfect fit; otherwise, critical problems would result, the most important being that the antibody might not be properly able to recognize and neutralize the threat.
If, for instance, the antibody mistakenly grabbed onto your eye, you would go blind. If it grasped your brain, you'd suffer brain damage. As soon as antibodies take hold of something, a chain reaction is produced, and that thing will either be neutralized or killed.
Once a B cell learns to produce an antibody with the help of a macrophage, it retains the memory to produce that antibody forever. So in effect, that B cell is forever programmed to recognize a specific invader. If it ever encounters that invader again, the B cell will immediately begin producing millions of copies of its antibody, and will also reproduce itself thousands of times to create a force of so-called daughter cells. Each daughter cell also inherits the know-how to recognize that specific invader and to produce its specific antibody.
It is thought that B cells live anywhere from about a year to about six years. B cells reproduce themselves (by cell division) to maintain their collective memory, which is crucial for your very survival. And B cells can also multiply quickly in response to the recognition of a known threat. This ability to multiply helps build a formidable antibody response in the event a known invader gains entry into your body again.
There's a lot of brainpower in the B cells.
The other major group of lymphocytes is the T cells (T stands for thymus, the body organ in which they mature).
T cells look like B cells under a microscope-they are spherical, with a big nucleus and not much cytoplasm (the stuff that surrounds the nucleus). These T cells are the marines of your homeland security team. Just as every marine has a job classification, or a military occupational specialty (MOS), every T cell also has an MOS.

For as long as I can remember, I have loved cream cheese. I don't dream about it or go for long walks with it, but it sure makes my taste buds happy.
I also like the fact that cream cheese lends itself well to so many types of recipes. It is used in appetizers, snacks, main dishes, side dishes and, of course, desserts (as in cheesecake).
There are some people who just can't stand the stuff, but I am hoping they will allow the rest of us to explore our cream cheese fantasies for just a little while.
I have had a cream cheese cookbook for years, published by Kraft, Inc., so I will share a couple of recipes from that source, as well as others from my collection. I hope you like them! ...

A Facebook badge is an easy-to-use utility for spreading awareness about your personal or professional Facebook presence. By adding Facebook badges to your additional online profiles, such as your website or blog, your audience can quickly see updates that you wish to share from Facebook and also easily reach locations such as your Facebook profile or fan page. In order to change a Facebook badge, replace your old badge code with the code of your newly customized badge.
Badge Options
Whether you wish to edit a current badge or create a new type of badge, you'll start on the Facebook Badges page (link in Resources). Here, you have four options for badges: a Profile badge that displays personal information from your Facebook profile, a Photo badge that shares your profile photos, a Like badge that displays a fan page that you've liked on Facebook, and a Page badge that provides a link to Facebook fan page that you manage. Facebook will store the Profile, Photo, and Page badges you make so you can edit them later. Like badges simply contain a link, so they are not stored.
Editing an Existing Badge
When you click on a Badge link, you see all the badges you have previously created, sorted by type. Click the "Edit this badge" button next to a badge to make changes. In the Edit menu, you can choose from a series of Layout options and select the specific information you wish to display on your badge. The preview screen on the right side of the menu displays your changes as you make them. When you're finished, click "Save", and you're returned to your list of badges. Beneath "Choose where to add the badge," click the "Other" button to generate your new badge code.
Replacing an Old Badge
Once you've generated your badge code, copy the entire code. Within your browser, go to your website, blog or any other location where you wish to display your badge. Using your favorite code or text editor, paste the code for your badge in your preferred location on the page. Once you save your changes, you should see the badge on your live blog or Web page. If you are using a platform with a layout or theme editor, you may need to paste the code in a specific location. For example, WordPress instructs users to add the code for Facebook badges within a Text widget.
If you wish to add your new badge code to multiple locations online (or if you want to add several different badges), pasting the code into a text file is a helpful way to stay organized while you are working in multiple Web pages. Implementing the code for a Facebook badge is a simple process, but make sure you copy and paste the entire line of code without omitting any characters to prevent your badge from having display issues.

Jessie Wilcox-Smith, known for affectionate portraits of endearingly innocent, carefree children, began her career as a kindergarten teacher. When she was 20 years old, Wilcox-Smith (1863 – 1935) was pressured into taking an art class and discovered that she had an aptitude for drawing. Motivated by her success, she pursued a formal art education and became an advertising artist for "Ladies Home Journal." Her wholesome, sensitive illustrations have graced over 40 children's books and hundreds of national magazine articles and covers. Wilcox-Smith also created ads for Cream of Wheat, Campbell's Soup, the Red Cross and Ivory Soap.

21 Most Volatile Biopharma Stocks Closing Out 2012
TheStreet) -- We're less than two months from putting 2012 to bed but an astonishing number of biopharmaceutical firms still have significant stock-moving catalysts that have yet to play out. Here's an alphabetized list of 21 biotech and drug companies with FDA drug approvals and significant clinical trial results expected before the end of 2012.Acadia Pharmaceuticals (ACAD - Get Report): Top-line results from a phase III study of pimavanserin in patients with Parkinson's disease psychosis expected in November. Read more on the BioRunUp trade in Acadia and a deeper dive into previous pimavanserin studies. Alexza Pharmaceuticals' (ALXA) Adasuve, an inhaled formulation of the antipsychotic medication loxapine, is expecting an FDA approval decision on Dec. 21. U.S. regulators have rejected Adasuve twice previously. When Amarin (AMRN) reports third-quarter results on Thursday, Nov. 8, investors will be listening for an update on Vascepa's New Chemical Entity (NCE) status and plans for the drug's commercial launch. Amicus Therapeutics (FOLD) and partner GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) will announce top-line results from two phase III studies of migalastat (Amigal) in Fabry disease before the end of the year. Biogen Idec (BIIB) will complete a busy year of drug development when it announces results from a phase III study of dexpramipexole in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig's disease. Data expected before end of the year. Biomarin Pharmaceuticals (BMRN): Phase III study of GALNS for MPS IV also known as Morquio Syndrome before end of year. If the study is successful and the drug is approved, GALNS could double Biomarin's revenue over the next five years Catalyst Pharmaceutical Partners (CPRX)has promised results from a phase IIb study of CPP-109 (vigabatrin) in cocaine addiction before the middle of November. That means data this week or next. Celgene (CELG): Top-line results from the phase III study of Abraxane in pancreatic cancer before the end of the year. TheStreet contributor Nate Sadeghi predicts a win for Celgene from this important Abraxane study. Last May, Celldex Therapeutics (CLDX) reported interim results from a mid-stage study of its targeted cancer drug CDX-011 demonstrating superior response rates in patients with advanced metastatic breast cancer compared to single-agent chemotherapy. Updated results from this study will be presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium in December.BOSTON (

Children North East has used funding from players to help over 11,500 children and young people live happy and healthy lives.
11 July 2012
Kate McCann launches unprecedented
Missing People billboard campaign
Today, Kate McCann will launch the biggest
digital billboard campaign in British history. In her first official
role as Ambassador of Missing People – a charity supported by you, the players
of People's Postcode Lottery – she will support the unprecedented campaign,
which sees a network of billboards publicise people missing across the
The campaign is being
organised by the Outdoor Media Centre and produced by Grand Visual. The value
of the advertising space donated is estimated at over £1 Million. The
campaign is hoped to reach over 10 Million adults during the summer months and
the Olympics. Staff and volunteers at Missing People will also be able to
update the appeals instantly to billboards, with details of the latest
high-risk individuals.
The campaign will see appeals on donated digital billboards in major cities
including London, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow. It will run across rail
and underground networks, on high streets and in shopping centres.
The advertisements will include details of individual missing people, creating awareness of the new number to call for sightings – 116 000 – and harnessing the public's help to join the search.
Kate McCann, a new Ambassador for Missing People, said: "When your child goes missing you want the whole world to stop and join the search. Missing People, the Outdoor Media Centre and its members are providing an unprecedented opportunity to help safely reconnect missing children.
"More than 250,000 people are reported missing each year in the UK – worryingly they could fill the Olympic Stadium three times over. Thankfully, campaigns like this can play a vital part in the search. In May, two youngsters featured in the charity's 'Big Tweet for Missing Children' were found safely.
Players of People's Postcode Lottery give their fantastic support to Missing People and have raised over £1.8 Million to date for the charity. This vital funding is used to support their searches for those thousands of people who go missing every single day across the country.

As a newly inducted member of the Havoc squadron, you must patrol and protect the planet of Ord Mantell to hone the Trooper's combat skills. The opening missions of this world involve mostly keeping the peace, whether it be hunting down radical insurgents or locating weapons of mass destruction.
- Cyborg
- Human
- Mirialan
- Zabrak
- The blaster rifle assigned to each Trooper, allows you to mow down multiple targets at long-range. This advantage is best utilized when trying to thin out a large group of enemies before they can combine and focus their firepower against you.
- Troopers have the freedom to choose their method of completing an objective without any moral consequences, resulting in a more personal and customized gameplay experience. In other words, it's your decision as to whether a situation is handled through an abuse of power or strict official procedure.
- Members of this class are also armed with grenades that will stick to an enemy's body and damage any of his teammates in close-proximity to the blast.
- A Trooper's rifle can be modified to fire highly explosive grenades, allowing for an increase in accuracy and the amount of damage inflicted.

When Julie Sherman learned she had breast cancer – two things came to mind. The first was her family.
"I have kids at home. I've got to make it. I have to survive this it was scary," said Julie Sherman.
The second thing she thought about was her hair.
"Logically as a woman you think losing your hair it's okay, it's just your hair. But let me tell you it was pretty traumatic. So I was thankful I could come here," said Sherman.
Here - is the Image Recovery Center. Alegent Creighton Health has 3 of them. They are medical salons offering services to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. It may look like your traditional salon but it's really a place of healing.
"I was clueless and afraid and didn't know where to start so when I did come to the center for my first appointment, they really put me at ease that I was going to be able to do this," said Sherman.
Staffed by clinically trained cosmetologists, cancer patients can come here for wigs, massages, makeup tips, mastectomy related products, like swimsuits and under garments, and more. The services are geared towards the special needs of cancer patients.
"We are a service through the health care system that provides that patient something they are not able to receive in the retail world. We are highly trained we have a lot of experience and it's a clean safe environment because they are cancer patients their immunities are very low, said Sandy Jensen a Clinical Cosmetologist at the Image Recovery Center.
And their anxiety levels are pretty high too. Patients who come through these doors are overwhelmed - Julie was numb but she wanted to fight the cancer on her own terms. So with Sandy's help, she shaved her head before the chemo could take her hair and then found a wig that suited her style.
"You just want to feel as normal as you can while you're going through it. I didn't want to look sick. I didn't want to feel sick. I didn't want to put that fear factor in my family. I didn't want people to look at me funny," said Julie.
And that's what the Image Recovery Center is all about - helping cancer patients going through the changes that come with cancer treatment - so they can feel better about themselves inside and out.
"If there's a question we can't provide the answer to, we find it for them. It's highly important we help them get through this journey.
It is a journey. It's been 3 years since Julie was diagnosed and everything looks great.
"Everyday is a blessing and that's how I look at it." said Julie.
She still comes here for services but now she helps other cancer patients see the disease doesn't have to consume them.
"I was thankful I could come here. I've recommended so many patients - I said just let them help you. They can hold your hand and take you through it so you can survive – you can get up in the morning and look in the mirror and think I'm going to be fine I'm going to make it," said Julie.

Great Product you can't go wrong!
This review is from: Pioneer VSX-1123-K 7.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver
Pros: Very up to date with the very easy to use app remote control, air play and various ways to connect and play sound and music thru the receiver, they should have named it a SMART receiver because that's what it is it connects to the internet very easily and can be controlled with your tablet or smart phone. I never use the manual remote, the app is much easier to use to control the receiver. I think it took me less than 10 minutes to set up this receiver (I was switching out an older pioneer receiver which went out after it took a whole cup of orange juice spilled into it beware these receivers have an open grill on the top of the receiver and it's easy to spill things into the receiver) I am very proud of my purchase the receiver does go very loud I have it hooked up to a set of polk audio 510s which the speakers gave lasted me about 6 years I'm planning to buy another set of rm510 to get the 7.2 effect instead of my current 5.1 set up.
Cons: because of the vent on the top of the receiver you should always have it in a cabinet or under a table, it will be tempting to sit things on top of the receiver such as a cup or food which will very easily get inside the receiver it seems that dust will easily enter it as well. The on screen GUI lacks a modern feel, but the free app makes up for it in controlling the receiver.
Other Thoughts: This receiver is replacing a poineer I bought back in 2008 it's so much more advanced it's like it was made by aliens but easy to use.

Great Reciver
This review is from: Pioneer VSX-1123-K 7.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver
Pros: Lots of power, sounds great. Have it hooked up to 5.1 and it works crazy well. The clarity is very good. Great options for Zone a and B, or Zone a and B at the same time.
Cons: GUI could be nicer. I would also say that I wish I could have a little more direct control over the EQ, but it is what it is.

Excellent equipment
This review is from: Pioneer VSX-1123-K 7.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver
Pros: Great sound, intuitive on screen interfaces (although I'd prefer higher graphics), Pandora and PC streaming, control via Android app (I love being able to turn on the receiver from the bedroom), great sound, speaker volume leveling via MCCAC, great sound, and green friendly. Seriously, this thing seems to use less power than my old home theater in a box.
Cons: For the price I don't see any serious cons.

Nice while it lasted??
This review is from: Pioneer VSX-1123-K 7.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver
Pros: Upgraded My lower resolution video to 1080p. Had very good sound and power for the price. For 6 weeks???
Cons: Everything worked perfect for 6 weeks, after that I noticed intermittently I would have flickering video. It would shut off for a couple seconds and go off, no matter which input I was using. Now 2 weeks later... it's gotten worse, now ity keeps searching for a video format then goes black for a few seconds, does that a few times then the screen goes purple. I still have audio but no video or on screen display. Movies are unwatchable.. I'm plugging back in my old Sony that I've had for 16 years(no problems) and sending this dissapointment in for service. I was worried about the quallity of this unit when I saw the made in China sticker and when you turn the knobs, the detents or clicks are spongy and cheap, My first instincts were to return the unit immediatelly and I wish I would have listened to them.
Other Thoughts: My last reciever lasted 16 years, this one not even 16 weeks. I'm sure even after it's repaired it wont last 16 months. I will repost and let you know how there warranty and customer service is, but I've read other posts and it doesn't look good for me... Good luck to you

Pleased so Far
This review is from: Pioneer VSX-1123-K 7.2-Channel 4K AV Receiver
Pros: - Easy to set up
Cons: - On-screen menus don't look great considering the modern design of the rest of the receiver
Other Thoughts: I have not been able to really delve into this receiver the way I've wanted to, but once I move that will change. However, it's been nothing but solid so far. I replaced my Onkyo with this one because it had many more HDMI inputs as well as better HD support and is just packed with much newer technology (my Onkyo was 7 years old).

Mariah says Kree looks "divalicious" and the song was a very smart choice for her. She thinks Kree showed her versatility with this song and she's going to be around for a long time. Keith Urban says it was the right song and Kree stayed in control of it the whole time. Nicki Minaj says "hi 'Kreedom' you're back" and says Kree is not country, she's worldly, she's iconic. Nicki compares her to Adele and Celine Dion. She thinks Kree is like one of those divas you can watch when you are 20 and when you are 50. Nicki thinks 'Kreedom' is "everything."

MLAs Call On The North West To Work Together In Tough Times
Session: 2011/2012
Date: 20 October 2010
Reference: E&L 04/10/11
The Northern Ireland Assembly Committee for Employment and Learning has called for better partnerships between business and education to help regenerate the North West economy. The call came as the Committee visited Magee College to hold a Committee meeting and meet the Vice Chancellor of the University of Ulster and the Chief Executive of the Ilex Regeneration Company.
Dolores Kelly, MLA, Chair of the Employment and Learning Committee said: "We are here today to hear about the opportunities for regeneration that are available in the North West. The University of Ulster is hosting us and obviously we will be talking to them and Ilex about the kind of support they need to build a smarter future for the people of the North West. The Committee is keenly aware that development of our people is the best way to see us through the current economic problems.
"Value for money and partnership working will be the watch words for public investment. On this visit the Committee has seen a number of excellent collaborations which are delivering results for the local economy.
"We believe that the North West has considerable potential to take advantage of opportunities that exist in education, training and personnel development and to win new business and investment."
As well as holding its meeting in the College, the Committee also hosted a breakfast meeting, bringing together MLAs and representatives from the local universities, students and business organisations, providing a useful opportunity for local stakeholders to discuss their concerns and ideas for regeneration with Committee members.
Jonathan Bell, MLA, Deputy Chair of the Committee added: "The Committee recently hosted a breakfast at Parliament Buildings which brought together business and the further education sector. This is the kind of joined-up thinking and working that we need to see more of. We are very keen to support activities which bring together the different drivers within our economy to allow us to make better use of the resources that we have.
"The Committee will be taking back to the Assembly the examples of partnership working we have seen in the North West today. We must share best practice. We are working hard to bring groups together where we believe it will prove useful".
