Season 2 hit a little bump with the Mandy Moore storyline. To me, it was pretty hard to watch. The entire thing didn't seem like the Entourage of season 1. The writing was a bit less witty as season 2 too, and all in all, the season felt less entertaining and interesting as season 1. Season 3 seemed to struggle with the writing and storylines as well. Seemed like they focused more on getting big-name stars on to the show than writing good dialog or storylines.
Now that season 4 has started, the show seems to have returned more to focusing on Vince, his entourage Ari, like the first season, which is an awesome switch in my eyes. What I loved in the beginning was the relationship between the guys -- plus a manic Ari -- and the more the series focuses on the guys, and the comedy that ensues, the better it is.

The prostate gland is about the size of a walnut and surrounds the neck of a man's bladder and urethra—the tube that carries urine from the bladder.
In the past 30 years, the five-year survival rate for all stages of prostate cancer combined has increased from 73 percent to nearly 100 percent.
Detailed information on the risk factors for prostate cancer
The majority of cases of prostate cancer are sporadic, which means that one person in the family developed prostate cancer by chance at a typical age for this cancer. In these cases, other male relatives have little to no increased risk of developing prostate cancer.
Early prostate cancer usually has no specific signs or symptoms—that's why prostate cancer screening is so important.

Science For Tomorrow
STEM Career Workshops
Science for Tomorrow is a program for middle school students from underserved/underrepresented communities designed to introduce students to STEM careers, show them who scientists really are and what they do, and provide them with practical tools for navigating high school, applying for college and achieving those careers.
Science for Tomorrow: STEM Career program is a series of workshops for middle school students designed to introduce them to a variety of STEM careers, let them explore the scientific method and engineering design process, teach them how to conduct and evaluate scientific research and to help them take ownership of their academic future. Each workshop features hands-on activities and inquiry based learning.
The program also offers components for parents and teachers because without their support and guidance the students have less chance of success.
The program culminates with a campus visit for the students and their families. In the past they have visited a working physics demo lab and had lunch with U-M faculty and students. They go on a campus tour and hear presentations by U-M admissions staff.
If you are interested in having the Science for Tomorrow program come to your school or group please contact Kira Berman at 734.647.8574 or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The 2014 Science for Tomorrow: STEM Career Workshops Program is funded by the National Science Foundation, Suzanne Goodrich and the James A. & Faith Knight Foundation.

text: Im looking for a shoulder holster setup for a ruger GP100 4". It doesnt need to be real fancy but nothing cheap (crappy). Im about 5'10" and 145lbs. This will be used mainly in the colder months, unless I have a particular reason to be wearing a jacket during the summer (I really wish I had more reasons to wear a jacket during the summer:rolleyes:) Has anybody here used one for a GP100 or similar sized revolver that they could recommend? Thanks!

The rapid adoption by the car industry of catalytic converters for petrol engines that reduce the quantities of toxic nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbon pollutants entering the atmosphere has significantly improved air quality, particularly in busy towns and cities. However, this improvement comes at a price, according to Italian scientists who have studied the metallic fallout from catalytic converters.
Claudio Botrè of the University of Rome and Alessandro Alimonti of the Italian National Institute of Health in Rome and their colleagues explain that the increasing numbers of catalytic converters on the road has led to rising environmental levels of the metals used as the catalysts in these devices - platinum, rhodium, palladium, and iridium. The team has published their detailed findings in the International Journal of Environment and Health.
The team analysed air particulate samples collected from two typically busy sites in Rome over the winter of 2004-2005. They used mass spectrometry to determine the chemical constituents of the samples. Their initial findings confirmed that vehicle exhausts, as opposed to hospital incinerators and industrial sites, are the main source of platinum and related metals in the urban environment.
The researchers also confirmed the findings of an earlier study that suggests that platinum is present in vehicular pollution at four times the level of rhodium. The environmental evaluation of iridium used in catalytic converters provides the first benchmark for this pollutant as no detailed tests have been carried out previously.
In terms of public health, the researchers then looked at the way the platinum group metals interact with the natural antioxidant, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and with a compound occurring in every cell of our bodies as a product of metabolic processes, the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). They hoped to determine whether the metals from catalytic converters that have entered the atmosphere and been adsorbed, or trapped, on pollutant particles which can be breathed in could ultimately have a detrimental effect on health.
They used an electrochemical method to investigate how the platinum group metals from their particulate samples reacted with ascorbic acid and NADH. Their preliminary findings suggest that these metals can trigger deleterious reactions that decrease the amount of these two vital biomolecules, in the in vitro tests at least. They will need to carry out further investigations to find out whether the body's natural defences could cope with the potential harm caused by these metals.
Lead pollution has received considerable attention, with lead in petrol rightly banned across the EU. However, the emerging problem of platinum metal pollution must be considered in evaluating the benefits of vehicle catalytic converters. The researchers suggest that closer monitoring of increasing levels of catalytic metals in urban pollution is a matter of urgency. Epidemiological studies of the health effects on children of these metals are under way elsewhere with metal content in urine samples providing a straightforward method of monitoring exposure levels.

Most expectant mothers experience uterine contractions before the onset of true labor. These Braxton-Hicks
contractions or practice contractions can occur almost any time during the pregnancy, but are more common
during the last few weeks before delivery. Sometimes it is very difficult to tell the difference between
the practice contractions and true labor. Listed below are some of the differences between Braxton Hicks
contractions (practice contractions or false labor) and true labor. Regardless of your expected delivery
date, if you think you are having contractions stop what you are doing and time your contractions. As you
time your contractions, compare your contractions with the ones described below. If you think you are in
labor, follow your doctor's instructions. If you are not sure, call your doctor and follow his/her instructions.

Sharing the vision
How do you get 175,000 people in more than 150 countries excited about a single vision? With a personal touch.
"When I heard about our Visionaries program I jumped at the chance to participate because I believe it's important for any large organization to not only have a vision but also to talk about it," says Wei Hock Lee, an Assurance Senior Manager in the EY Singapore office. "This was an opportunity to lead conversations that will help my peers think about the broader picture — beyond our country practice — and inspire them to find out more about our purpose and their role in achieving our ambition."
Wei Hock is one of more than two hundred participants in our Asia-Pacific EY Visionaries network. The network was developed to encourage discussion about Vision 2020 among the 30,000 people across our Asia-Pacific Area. The Visionaries support open and honest two-way communication across EY and create an informal channel for our people to provide feedback to senior leadership.
To make sure that Visionaries have the most up-to-date information, they are kept informed through quarterly webcasts, a members-only online community and face-to-face meetings with senior leaders.
"In my 11 years with EY, I've never been more proud to work here. Vision 2020 is an important step in our journey to becoming an even stronger organization globally, and I want to share my excitement with my colleagues," Wei Hock adds.

Violet Petal Study
|Watch this
|View More Posts Ignore
I just found out that I may qualify to participate in the Violet Petal Study. I had my pre-screening today. If you haven't heard of it yet, it's a medical test for a new daily drug for endometriosis pain and it is supposed to basically do what Lupron does without the harsh side effects. Have any of you done this or considered doing it? It's scary to me, but Lupron is equally scary so I'm not sure what I should do! I currently can't afford Lupron because my insurance denied it, so I feel like this could be a good option. The downside is that the treatment period is 20 months, whereas Lupron is only 6. The upside is that I would get paid to receive free treatment and if it works it could change my life.
I'm just looking for some advice from those who have already considered it!

Try doing a search on this boards and others. There have been a bunch of ladies who are participating in the study, or have thought about it. I decided not to participate because I cannot risk getting a placebo. Good luck if you decide to do the study!

I declined to participate because I want to get pregnant soon and I was also afraid to take the chance of getting the placebo. My pain is through the roof, and I was specifically told I wouldn't be able to take pain meds. I think if that hadn't been a requirement then I probably would have done it.

Just realize that there can be risks taking anything experimental. When I took Femara it was considered experimental (an off label use) for endometriosis. I completely regret doing it. It caused me physical pain, financial issues (hospital bills!), and I'm still dealing with problems even years after I took it.
Now when Femara came out, it just happened to coincide with the patent expiration of Tamoxifen. You can read about that coincidence here:
Were aromatase inhibitors actually better than tamoxifen, or was it a patent issue? Could've been just coincidence, but I would've liked to have known this information before I took Femara.
Now here's a link discussing Elagolix vs Lupron (both connected to the same company btw). In it is mentioned the fact that Lupron loses it's patent protection in 2015:
I looked into Elagolix, but It was little too déjà vu for me. Then I saw it's from Abbott and that made up my mind not to even bother (but that's just my feelings on it).
And when I took Femara the doctor that prescribed it recorded me as responding well to it. No problems... Yeah, he just completely forgot to mention the ER visit, the surgery, and all of the other medical problems I got from it.
I don't know how truthful doctors are in these studies. For the Femara my doctor already knew what outcome he wanted, and he probably would've written "responded well" even if I dropped dead. My primary doctor was the one that told me to stop taking it, and to never go back that doctor.
Just do your research, and make the best decision you can. At least with the Elagolix it looks like it's in pill form and not an injection. That seems like a plus at least.
Take care, and good luck!

Thanks for the info, ladies. I've been talking with the doctor conducting the study in Seattle and she's also speaking with my endo doctor and primary care doctor to determine if it is a good route for me. Reading the detailed consent form and talking to the doctor, it seems like the side effects of this drug are nothing compared to Lupron. That gives me some hope! My only concern is that I have to go through a "Washout" period before I can start the drug. That's two months without any birth control and I'm worried about how my body will react to that. I've been on BC since I was 14 to control my periods and menstrual pain- I don't really know what life is like without the pill.

Can anyone join the study? do you have the info, I'd love to check it out.
I've done quite a few studies (for the type of cancer that I had) and honestly I don't regret any of them. I'm not sure if they made you aware but you can stop taking the meds or drop out of the study any time you like.
Starting new meds is petrifying!!!! So much to consider. I'd say with reading your post there seems to be more upsides then down. Remember not only could this help you in the long run but think of all the others that will come after you that could potentially be affected in a good way because of this.
Let us know what you decide. I think its awesome that you are considering a clinical study, its really brave to be a guinea pig I know! Good Luck in what ever you decide.

Yeah, you should be able to find out where it is being held in your area by going here: https://www.violetpetalstudy.com/Ho...
They have a pre-screening process that will tell you if you're eligible. I know you have to be between 18-49 and you cannot have started menopause or pre-menopause and you have to have regular periods.

I'm currently in this study, and I'm definitely not on placebo. You don't technically know, but if you get the actual drug your period stops and you get hot flashes, so I'm positive I'm on the real meds. The good thing about this study is that if you are in placebo group you can sign up for the extended study after, and in that one your guaranteed to be on the medication.
The treatment period includes washout, where you go off other meds including birth control, and the follow up period. You only take the medicine for 6 months. I'm in my third month of medicine, and so far, pretty good results! The hot flashes suck, and keep me up at night, andmy sex drive has plummeted, but other than that side effects are mild. The first month was hard, lots of bleeding, cramping, and nausea, but it quickly faded. The side effects to me, while frustrating at times, are worth the benefits. No period, huge reduction in pain, bloating, etc.
m hoping that it doesn't all come back when I stop. Supposedly this should help for a few years after I stop taking it.
I really didn't want lupron, and while this is similar, it doesn't lower your hormones quite as much, do side effects are lessened. Also, because its pills instead of a shot, you can stop taking it at any time and get it out of your system ASAP if you have problems on it. That said, you take pills exactly 12 hours apart, and can't eat 2 hours before or one hour after taking them. Not a big deal, but it can be tricky sometimes.
It's also great to not worry about paying for treatment, and in fact they pay me, so missing work for my monthly appointment gets made up for. Honestly, the biggest downside is the endometrial biopsy. They do it before and after completing the study. You're awakefor it, and I was unprepared for the level of pain. It was bad.
Still, I would recommend talking to your doctors about qualifying for this study rather than lupron. For me, it was the right choice.
Also, this is a phase 3 study, meaning they've already tested it for safety in human subjects. I work in clinical trials, this one is low risk.

@rachens-Thanks so much for posting the update. Sounds like everything is going well and hopefully this will be a magic bullet that we can have for this crappy disease.

After a somewhat prolonged absence, 94.5 the Buzz is bringing back Buzzfest, and man, did they make it worth the wait. Buzzfest 32, taking place October 18 at Woodlands Pavilion, features the following: Chevelle, Papa Roach, Cage the Elephant, Young the Giant, Switchfoot, Big Data, Milky Chance, P.O.D., The Dirty Heads, Evans Blue, New Politics, Bear Hands, Bad Suns and New Medicine.
So, yeah, kind of a badass lineup. Tickets are on sale now, and while they're not nearly as cheap as the recent Bud Light Weenie Roast, this bill pales that one in comparison (though the Weenie Roast was solid).
Having seen a number of these bands over the years, I'm particularly stoked for Papa Roach, Cage the Elephant, and P.O.D, and I'm curious to check out some bands I haven't seen, such as Big Data, Young the Giant, and The Dirty Heads. Should be a good show for sure, and even better? It's not taking place in the dead-ass heat of summer!

"We're not a company that goes in and out of brands," notes TOMY International spokesperson Scott Goldberg, referring to the toy supplier's venerable John Deere line in particular.
He's standing in front of a display stand at Toy Fair featuring John Deere farm and construction play product, an entire wall of which is merchandised just a few feet behind him. It includes a new addition to the line in Gear Force-tagged toy vehicles offering both farm and off-road play for preschoolers.
Meanwhile, TOMY senior VP Willie Wilkov lauds the Gear Force collection's heightened sound, movement and overall play value.
"There's just more to it," he says. "There are different characters, so it's a play set all in one."
The Gear Force set does in fact bring articulated and poseable character figures and animals, along with themed accessories, to an assortment of vehicles led by the biggest, the Combine Harvester, which features sound and lights, the ability to pick up bales and pop them out of the hopper, two figures, a bull and numerous accessories.
The other Gear Force earth-moving and heavy hauling vehicles follow the "adventure story in a box" form in including figures, accessories and animals. Other entries in the new group include Gator off-road and utility vehicles; new non-Gear Force John Deere product includes various ride-ons, a radio-control Monster Treads Gator and Monster Treads tractor and wagon. There's also a Raging Bull Roundup set and Monster Treads Shake N Sounds off-road vehicles, as well as various preschool-targeted farm-related sets.
TOMY has marketed John Deere product since the early 1950s.

Eating Chicken As Teenager Could Reduce Colon Cancer Risk
A new study published has linked chicken consumption during teenage years to a lowered risk in colon cancer, reports the National Chicken Council.The study of more than 20,000 women found that those who ate more chicken as teens had a lower risk of colorectal adenomas, which are benign tumors that can progress into colon cancer.The researchers didn't find a direct relationship between red meat intake and adenomas, but the results showed that replacing one serving per day of red meat with one serving of poultry or fish may reduce the risks of rectal and advanced adenomas by about 40 percent.The correlation was only found between women who ate larger amounts of poultry during high school. No correlation was found between poultry consumption as an adult and reduced risk of colon cancer. Diet is usually a lower risk factor for cancer, but among all cancers, colon cancer is most influenced by one's diet.The results add to previous evidence that eating poultry may decrease risk of colon cancerThis study was published in the American Journal of Epidemiology on June 19.The abstract can be found at http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2013/06/18/aje.kwt099.abstract

Variation and change in relativization strategies has been well documented (e.g. Ball 1996: 46, Biber and Clark 2002, Biber, Johansson, Leech, Conrad and Finegan 1999, Johansson 2006, Lehmann 2002). Certain types of relative clause,
namely that-relatives and zero relatives, were difficult to retrieve from plain-text corpora. Studies therefore either relied on manual extraction of data or a subset of
possible relativization strategies. In some text types, however, the zero relative is an important member of the class of possible relativizers. Recent advances in syntactic
annotation should have made that-relatives and zero relatives more accessible to automatic retrieval. In this article, we test precision and recall of searches on a
modest-sized corpus, i.e. scientific texts from ARCHER (A Representative Corpus of Historical English Registers), as a preliminary to future work on the large corpora
which are increasingly becoming available. The parser retrieved some false positives and at the same time missed some relevant data. We discuss structural reasons
for both kinds of shortcoming as well as the possibilities and limitations of parser adaptation.

|Men's hoops hands out awards
MOSCOW, Idaho – The Idaho men's basketball team handed out its team awards on Wednesday, and six players earned honors, headlined by senior Stephen Madison who took home the Ronald White Award as the team's most outstanding player as voted on by the team.
Madison averaged team-bests of 20.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.5 blocks per game in 2013-14 and finished his career as Idaho's second all-time leading scorer with 1,624 points. His 684 points in 2013-14 are the fourth best in a single-season in Idaho history and his 20.1 scoring average ranked 24th in the nation. Madison was a first-team all-Western Athletic Conference and WAC all-tournament team selection, and earned a league-record five WAC Player of the Week honors during the season.
Senior Glen Dean received the Oz Thompson Award as the player who best inspires sportsmanship, scholarship and leadership. Dean was a team captain and vocal leader in his only season at Idaho, as he joined the team after earning his bachelor's degree at the University of Utah. Dean, who is working towards his master's degree, averaged 9.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game in 2013-14.
Dean and fellow senior Joe Kammerer shared the Jay Gano Award, which recognizes the team's Most Inspirational Player. After starting two games in his career leading into his senior season, Kammerer started 28 of Idaho's 34 games in 2013-14 and tallied 78 points and 72 rebounds on the season.
The George Greene Award for the most unselfish player went to junior point guard Mike Scott. Scott began the season as Idaho's back-up point guard but started 15 of Idaho's final 16 games and averaged 11.1 points, 3.6 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game in that time, with a 2.1 assist-to-turnover ratio.
Junior Bira Seck earned the Gus Johnson Award as the team's top defensive player. Seck was one of three players to start all 34 games in 2013-14 for the Vandals, and averaged 4.3 points and 5.1 rebounds per game.
Connor Hill, who averaged 14.2 points per game and shattered Idaho's career 3-pointers made record, was the recipient of the Kathy Clark Award for matching his athletic achievements with his academic achievement. Hill, a junior, made 98 3-pointers in 2013-14, just one shy of Idaho's single-season record, and hit eight 3-pointers in a game against CSU Northridge, one shy of Idaho's single-game record. He will enter his senior season with 232 career 3-pointers made. Hill holds a 3.13 cumulative GPA in the college of Business and Economics.

Is there a way the this can be send to me on an alternative E-mail or to my cellphone number that I use for this account?
This is the only way you can get your id back. That's why Gmail is secure. Phone number is used only for authentication, not for recovery process.

Great pairing! I love the bench, too. Wonder if it's a warmer pink, as it looks to be in the photo?

Clever, clever, clever. The pink really makes this room (IMO).
I could probably learn from this and introduce some bold pink accents somewhere...
Thanks for the great pic!

The Aspire R7 convertible design immerses you in content like never before. This slim, high-performance PC features the patented Ezel™ hinge, which brings your touchscreen within easy reach whichever way you use it.
Coming Soon
Screen Size
Touch Screen
The Ezel™ hinge works just right: it provides low resistance for converting the Aspire R7 into four modes with just one hand, and higher resistance so the touchscreen stays steady when you use it. Work with the Aspire R7 at your desk as a notebook, flick it into display mode for sharing, or use it as a pad for drawing.
Ezel™ mode brings the touch display closer to you, so you don't have to reach across your desk to use it. Just pull the display up and out, where it can float over the keyboard. Having the display that much closer makes switching between touch control and typing that much easier.
The Aspire R7 delivers awesome sights and sounds, in every mode. The Full HD display makes details stand out, and four powerful speakers plus Dolby® Digital Plus™1 blast four times the acoustic power of conventional notebooks. In addition, audio channels automatically reverse when switching modes, so stereo sound is always perfect.
Use Acer Touch Tools on your Aspire R7 to enjoy handwriting. The AccuFinger tool gives you extra-precise touchscreen input so you can work efficiently even without a keyboard or mouse. Plus, with the Acer Active Pen1 you can perform touch gestures, as well as write or draw with realistic strokes and turn your captured memories into works of art in MemoryBinder.
A powerful Intel® Core™ processor in the Aspire R 7 means you get the best of both worlds – the full performance of a laptop plus the fun of a tablet in one device. Edit photos one minute, watch movies the next. Go from spreadsheets to gaming in a flash. That's serious processing. Only with Intel Inside®.

Maui sailing charter Trilogy Excursions, in conjunction with the Surfrider Foundation Maui Chapter, has launched the Blue 'aina Campaign for 2010, and is organizing and hosting monthly reef cleanups. The next Blue'aina Campaign cleanup is being held on Sunday, April 11th from 9AM to 12PM. The goal of the groups is to clean up twelve local surf spots, simultaneously acting to raise awareness about protecting surf areas. The underlying theme of the effort and the Surfrider partnership is that it is up to surfers as stewards of the ocean to help protect and take care of the places that bring so much joy.
Organizer Jill Q is asking participants to meet at 8:30 AM at Lahaina Harbor and bring snorkel gear. Participants who can't commit to the half day on a boat, who aren't comfortable free diving or who would prefer to help out at the beach should meet at the Ukumehame Beach park in front of 1,000 Peaks surf break.
To get to the beach park head south from Lahaina, look for Ukumehame Park. Park in the area about half a mile from the tunnel.
Blue`aina Campaign in conjunction with Surfrider and Reef Check will be holding another beach cleanup at Lahaina Harbor on Saturday, May 1st. Click here for more information about this and other events.

Comet ISON's Death Dive
This composite image from ESA/NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) combines a series of images of sungrazing comet ISON. The Sun is blocked from view with a small disk in front of the telescope. The Sun's position is marked by the white circle.
ISON made its closest approach to the Sun during the evening of November 28, 2013, passing just 1.2 million kilometers from the Sun's visible surface. At first the comet was thought to have disintegrated during its fiery encounter, with just a remnant of its tail continuing along ISON's trajectory. But, the next day, it seemed clear that something had survived after all -- possibly a small chunk of ISON's nucleus, along with a lot of dust. This progressively faded as it edged towards SOHO's field of view on 30 November.
Scientists are still analyzing the data collected during ISON's encounter with the Sun to decipher the nail-biting chain of events that took place.

Remember the owl who shows you how many licks it takes to get to the center of the Tootsie Pop?
He's wrong. There are no licks. There are a cruel few seconds of chewing and then the stick is beheaded.
I bought a bag of Tootsie Pops knowing that we rarely get trick-or-treaters—we live on an unlit flag lot, behind several other properties—so I've been eating them. Or, rather, I've been doing a lot of chewing and beheading.
Just reread that previous paragraph. I meant chewing and beheading the Tootsie Pops. Not trick-or-treaters.

Could it be that an openly bisexual athlete be the one to cool Russian President Vladimir Putin and his hardline stance toward LGBT folk?
That may be the case after Dutch speedskater Ireen Wust had a short moment (a "cuddle" she says) with Putin after her Olympic win.
While in Sochi, she told ABC News and other press outlets that she got a surprise hug from the president, who has signed onto restrictive anti-gay laws in Russia.
Wust is open as bisexual—many media outlets incorrectly referred to her as lesbian, and then they were forced to retract their characterization and use the "b word." She is now in a relationship with a man.
Wust beat out Russian speedskater Olga Graf in the 3,000-meters race, and jokingly took a bite out of the gold medal she won in the race. She also took the stage two other times winning silver medals in Speedskating the 1,500-meter and 1,000-meter races. (She has one more race, the 5,000-meter, coming up on Feb. 19.) She met Putin and told the press about it afterward.
"He congratulated me and asked if everything was OK in Russia and I congratulated him on Olga Graf, of course, for her third place. He was happy to see me, but then he had to leave again. But I cuddled him."
Putin seemed to back off his harsh stand during the games, and there have been no incidents regarding the anti-gay law so far at the Olympic games.
She originally came out in a Dutch magazine in 2009 as having a relationship with a woman, and then criticized the media for making such a big deal about it. She says she didn't want to be a poster child for LGBT athletes. Indeed, when she first came out, she said she was surprised she fell in love with a woman, and always saw herself with a husband and children.
She said at the time:
"Will you then be known as Ireen the speedskater or Ireen who has a girlfriend? That was a struggle."
She initially didn't want to get involved in political statement about Putin or the Russian law, saying it is a "political thing that should be discussed by politicians. I'm just there to skate very fast. I can't do anything about it, and I won't. As if a well-known Dutch person can change the situation in Russia!"
Maybe not, but thank goodness she's an out and proud bisexual!

Seattle - Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll said at his regular Thursday post practice press conference that there was no question that Matt Hasselbeck would start at quarterback against the New Orleans Saints as long as he was healthy.
So, to keep things from dragging out for one more day, Carroll announced Hasselbeck was healthy, and therefore would start Saturday in the first round of the NFC playoffs against the Saints at 3:30 p.m.
Hasselbeck missed Seattle's final game of the regular season with a hip injury although he was on the active roster for the victory over the St. Louis Rams. Backup Charlie Whitehurst led the Seahawks to a division-clinching 16-6 victory.
Carroll could have played the games coaches play, saying both players were taking snaps in practice, both looked good, either could be the starter.
"But to be fair to Matt, I wanted to make this announcement," Carroll said.
Hasselbeck was 32 of 44 for 366 yards and one touchdown in the Saints' 34-19 victory against Seattle on Nov. 21 in the Superdome.
After last week's game, Hasselbeck said he told Carroll to do what he thought was best for this week and that he wasn't sure what he brought to the table.
"What I said to him was you can handle things however you want to handle them," he said. "I'm going try to get as healthy as I can in the training room and try to give you a choice to make.
"I felt like I had made some progress last week (before the Rams game), but I didn't get to the point where I was able to do everything in the game plan. I made a run at it and felt good about it, but we felt good about Charlie's chances and our plan and it worked out perfectly."
Hasselbeck was asked if the situation had been of concern for him, not knowing if he was going to be the guy against the Saints this time around.
"My main concern was getting healthy, it really was," Hasselbeck said. "The thing is, if Charlie had been named the starter, I would have fully supported him. He is going to support me. It's about playing well this week."

You know your department has a diversity problem when part of your title begins with "female." You can imagine how introductions might go for the token female of each department: Female Human Resources Specialist, Female Information Technology Engineer, Female Chief Financial Officer. "Male" isn't in Nova Corp titles because Nova Corp is a sausage-fest.
Female Nova Corp 1
But whoever she is should get mad props for making it to officer in such a male-dominated environment. She has the usual kit of Nova Corp: environmental backpack, tear gas grenades, and the symbol of every officer -- a pistol. The one thing she didn't get was a badge.
Female Nova Corp 2
It's odd that Ms. Officer has no badge on her chest like everyone else, including the male officers, have. It's possible they were concerned about having people look at her chest, but seems more likely that it was just an oversight. I painted it on my sculpt. Overall, a good female sci-fi trooper. You can purchase this miniature at Amazon.

What are your thoughts on this guy's? With lots of other things to think about right now I looking for a good allrounder for between 150-250 quid. I know there's a lot of choice and my default option was something like an Ortofon 2M blue. Something comfortably better than entry level which would stave of the nagging itch to immediately upgrade. Any opinions on items such as Goldring's 2500?
It'll probably be used on something Like An Xperience Classic for now.

2009 Napa Valley harvest: finished with Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir in Oakville
Earlier this week Robert Mondavi Winery hosted its 43rd annual 'Blessing of the Grapes' ceremony in Oakville.
The ceremony provides a chance to "…pause in the otherwise hectic pace of harvest, allowing winery staff to acknowledge one another and the turning of yet another season."
Along with the ceremony, the winery also provided a quick update on where its 2009 harvest currently stands…
Robert Mondavi Winery
Winemaker Genevieve Janssens shared details on the winery's Oakville harvest thus-far. The winery has started to harvest Chardonnay and Merlot grapes and expects to begin picking Cabernet Sauvignon in approximately two weeks. Here's what Janssens had to say:
The weather has been very cooperative. We have finished the Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. We had some heat, but never more than two days in a row. The quality of the fruit is excellent. Everything fermenting at the winery is very aromatic and flavorful.
For more coverage of this year's harvest, check out our special Harvest 2009 category.

Avastin (bevacizumab) has been approved for a new use to treat patients with persistent, recurrent or late-stage (metastatic) cervical cancer by the FDA. Cervical cancer grows in the tissues of the lower part of the uterus known as the cervix, and is commonly caused by human papillomaviruses (HPV), spread through sexual contact. Although two vaccines have been licensed to prevent many types of HPV that can cause cervical cancer not enough young girls and women have been getting them. As a result, the National Cancer Institute estimates that 12,360 American women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer and 4,020 will die from the disease in 2014.
"Avastin is the first drug approved for patients with late-stage cervical cancer since the 2006 approval of topotecan with cisplatin," states Richard Pazdur, M.D., director of the Office of Hematology and Oncology Products in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. "It is also the first biologic agent approved for patients with late-stage cervical cancer and was approved in less than four months under the FDA's priority review program, demonstrating the agency's commitment to making promising therapies available to patients faster."
The drug works by interfering with the blood vessels that fuel the development of cancerous cells. Its safety and effectiveness was evaluated in a clinical study involving 452 participants with persistent, recurrent, or late-stage disease. Participants were randomly assigned to receive paclitaxel and cisplatin with or without Avastin or paclitaxel and topotecan with or without Avastin. Results showed an increase in overall survival to 16.8 months in participants who received chemotherapy in combination with Avastin as compared to 12.9 months for those receiving chemotherapy alone.
The most common side effects reported by patients during the trials were fatigue, decreased appetite, high blood pressure, hyperglycemia (increased glucose in the blood), a drop in magnesium in the blood, urinary tract infection, headache and decreased weight. Perforations of the gastrointestinal tract and abnormal openings between the gastrointestinal tract and vagina were also reported in patients treated with Avastin.
For more information, women should speak with their oncologists and/or gynecologists.

When the athletes of the US Olympic Skeleton Team go down the course in Sochi they are moving at a great rate of speed. One of the lesser known sports of the 2014 Olympics, the challenge is epic and the opportunity needs plenty of speed. This year the Winter Olympics is offering a little fun for the viewers watching this event and it has everything to do with the Olympic skeleton helmets. According to the New York Daily News on Thursday, some of the athletes on the course will be recognizable by their helmets.
On Wednesday the official Olympic Twitter account highlighted Johnny Fairbairn's helmet to showcase how the helmets of the sport has changed. Looking like someone's brain, the noggin appeared to be racing down the hill exposed quite quickly. He isn't the only athlete to make a visual impression on the course and fans are taking note of the unique looks.
For American viewers watching the event, it's Noelle Pikus-Pace, John Daly, Kyle Tress, Katie Uhlaender and Matt Antoine who are considered the biggest contenders for the US Olympic Skeleton Team. Going for the gold, the athletes are expected to pick up medals and grace the podium as they beat their competitors.
Take a look at the photo slideshow of the Olympic skeleton helmets. This aspect of the Olympics is going to be cool for the viewers and even the kids will want to know more!

Young Prince Anduin carries a heavy burden, but it is the preservation of uneasy peace, not the stratagems of war.
The son of Tiffin and Varian Wrynn, Anduin Llane Wrynn is the heir to the throne of Stormwind. Years ago, when his father disappeared, young Anduin was crowned king of Stormwind. Due to his age, he was unable to rule, and the task of regency was given to Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, a venerated paladin of the Alliance. Once King Varian returned to reclaim his throne, the prince began to focus his efforts on spiritual matters and diplomacy, traveling throughout Azeroth to understand how he might heal lands and souls ravaged by war. Anduin's spirit and empathy--so unlike his father's warrior impulses--enabled him to form strong bonds with the draenei Prophet Velen and even a few members of the Horde.
With Pandaria revealed to the world, the young prince has personally led a campaign to unveil the region's secrets and cool the flames of war that threaten to consume the continent. Anduin's wisdom and sense of justice may be all that stand between the Alliance, the Horde, and a catastrophe of epic proportions.

Newly-concocted college football playoff leaves room for improvement
Since journalists are meant to be objective, reserved types, there was no dancing, nor were there fireworks set off when commissioners from the 11 FBS conferences and lone wolf Notre Dame announced that a four-team playoff would replace the fetid BCS to determine a college football champion, beginning in 2014.
That's a good thing, since integrity is important in our business. But many writers, analysts and commentators share significant responsibility for the new set-up, which replaces one of the most contrived, transparent cash-grabs in recent sporting history. (And that's saying something.) Were it not for the tireless efforts of those who realized that the BCS was fraught with inconsistencies and outright conflicts of interest, college football would still be relying on computer geeks and the comedic Harris Poll to determine the best team in the land.
Worse, we would still be subject to the propaganda that BCS overlord Bill Hancock spewed about how "every game mattered" under the crazy system, when in fact, each week made more and more games meaningless, as the quest to find just two worthy title combatants winnowed the field and eliminated teams from contention – and significance.
From the standpoint of the schools involved in the BCS (it is not an NCAA-sponsored program), the system made perfect sense. Rather than turn over the administration of its championship apparatus to an organization that would retain a significant amount of the money involved, the big-time football schools ran the thing themselves, with maximum revenue the ultimate goal. If there happened to be a legitimate meeting of the top two teams in the country (who could know for sure?) as a by-product of the process, all the better. But the ultimate goal was to make sure the bowl dough settled into the coffers of the conferences, not the NCAA, which would never have guaranteed a complete payout.
It was something of a Bonfire of the Vanities. Since the NCAA isn't the most popular group around, and the BCS was widely considered to be the disfigured spawn of a self-serving group of athletic departments, it was hard to favor one side over the other. That's why so many members of the media wretched at the mere utterance of the letters B-C-S. They knew why the system had been created and were irate that its proponents and propaganda partners tried to convince us that it was legitimately devoted to finding college football's finest team.
Two years from now, things will change. The BCS will be no more, replaced by a four-team "playoff." And while that is cause for a celebration of sorts, media members must be careful not to rejoice too much. There is still work to be done.
First off, remember that while commissioners from 11 conferences (and the outlaw Fighting Irish) met to concoct the latest incarnation, only six leagues – five, once the Big East completes its disintegration into a version of C-USA – will reap the riches. By keeping the playoff at only four teams, it's unlikely we'll see a Cinderella from the Sun Belt Conference playing for the title. Perhaps a Boise State-style candidate will find its way into the Final Four once in a great while, but with a selection committee charged with the job of selecting the participants, it's less likely a school from the Great Unwashed will get a shot.
And what about that committee? Will it be an egalitarian group, with representatives of the Mountain West and Mid-American Conferences sitting next to power brokers from the SEC and Big 10? That's unlikely. Again, there may be a token representative from the small leagues allowed into the boardroom, but he won't likely have the influence to force a mid-major school into the quartet.
Further, we must know what the criteria will be for choosing the combatants. During the meetings that have led up to this moment, we heard about representatives from certain conferences demanding that only league champs apply. Others (hello, SEC) want it open to the four "best" teams, regardless of their regular-season finish. The media must hold this committee accountable for its decisions and demand transparency, the better to find out exactly why certain teams have been chosen. Remember that while four teams are better than two, there will still be schools left outside to make strong arguments for inclusion.
The end of the BCS is a big step for college football fans. Incorporating the bowl games into the championship "tournament" is a good idea (two bowls will host the semifinals each year) that maintains tradition. And getting rid of the preposterous system that chose the title game participants is a huge step forward.
But let's not get complacent, folks. This new model is far from perfect, and it's up to the media to make sure the methods used to choose the teams are legitimate. We are not so naïve as to think this is an altruistic nod to fans and playoff proponents. We understand this remains about control of huge amounts of money. But that doesn't excuse the media from its job as vigilant watchdogs over those who would rather see a fat bottom line than a genuine method of choosing a champion.
Enjoy the moment, but it will soon be time to get back to work.

Midsumma returns biggest surplus in years
Midsumma announced its biggest surplus in years at their Annual General Meeting last week.
The festival recorded a $154,769 surplus which is over $100,000 more than their last surplus which was in 2010.
Midsumma chair Aaron Hockly was pleased to announce the improvements after "many years of losses".
In 2013 the Festival recorded a loss of $78,883.
The report covers Midsumma's previous 15 months as opposed to 12 months – the 15-month report was to allow for the organisation's recent change to their financial year to match up with the standard financial year of July-June.
Previously, Midsumma's reporting year was April-March, which caused some confusion with funding bodies and did not allow much time after the festival wrapped up in February to settle all accounts and implement the audit.
Midsumma festival manager Monique Thorpe told MCV the organisation was not expecting such a large profit.
"We were hoping to make up for the loss of 2013," Thorpe said.
"It must be mentioned, however – before everyone thinks that we are flush with cash – that some of the money, approx $50,000, is income that has come in for the Midwinta Gala Ball with the costs associated for the event yet to leave the account. The profit of $110,000 at the close of March 2014 is closer to the actual profit made."
Thorpe said the success of the past year was due to perfect weather at Carnival 2014 as well as the office team completing the workload of two or three people each to ensure that the budget stayed on track.
Thorpe said budgeting for the "worst case scenario" and sticking to budgets all contributed to this year's achievement.
She said the same strategies will be employed in the coming year, even though the industry standard is to budget for 30 per cent capacity.
"The biggest risk every year is Carnival. Unfortunately, the costs remain the same whether the event is successful or not, whether it's sunny or raining and our suppliers do not give us a discount if our bar sales were lower than projected."
The festival will also employ an event manager onsite at Carnival in 2015, which will ease the burden on current Midsumma staff.
Earlier this year Midsumma announced it will take over Pride March Victoria, which Thorpe says will need to be given additional attention in this first year of the new model.
"We are of course aiming for a surplus again in 2015, however with so many large changes this year to the organisation, including the addition of Midwinta and the management of Pride March, I will personally be happy with a break-even result, to allow the profit from 2014 to remain a 'rainy-day' or 'emergency' fund for Midsumma."
T Dance will also remain a free event in light of its success this year:
"The changes implemented at T Dance in 2014 were part of this risk mitigation strategy," Thorpe said.
"We were able to reduce the costs of T Dance and remove the pressure of selling tickets, which only served to amplify the effects of bad weather.
"If the weather is bad the crowd are less likely to purchase tickets to an outdoor dance-party. With the free T Dance model, we have saved the expenses associated with T Dance and more people get to enjoy the event."
However, the challenges Midsumma face are still very real.
The festival expects to see government funding plateau or decline over the coming years.
"While it may look like we are sitting pretty financially, this is just a base level of stability that the organisation needs to become financially stable," Thorpe said.
"This profit in 2014 is the start of that safety net fund for Midsumma, which is part of a larger effort to stabilise the festival and ensure its longevity."
