The Olympics' attraction is sport's elite athletes.This isn't actually true, right? I mean, in many of the biggest Olympic sports, the world's elite athletes aren't involved. Soccer, boxing, and cycling immediately come to mind.
This isn't actually true, right? I mean, in many of the biggest Olympic sports, the world's elite athletes aren't involved. Soccer, boxing, and cycling immediately come to mind.
When I think of pure athletes, my mind goes immediately to the track and field and gymnasts. For some reason, I know that soccer players are great athletes but for some reason my mind doesn't go there. Of course I think internally my mind doesn't really think of sports athletes as "athletes" as much as players.

A Comic-Con 2016 report from the "Creating Universes" panel, featuring Neil deGrasse Tyson, Len Wein, Bill Prady and Peter S. Beagle.
Werner Herzog's "Fitzcarraldo"is a movie in the great tradition of grandiose cinematic visions. Like Coppola's "Apocalypse Now" or Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey," it is a quest film in which the hero's quest is scarcely more mad than the filmmaker's. Movies like this exist on a plane apart from ordinary films. There is a sense in which "Fitzcarraldo" is not altogether successful -- it is too long, we could say, or too meandering -- but it is still a film that I would not have missed for the world.
The movie is the story of a dreamer named Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald, whose name has been simplified to "Fitzcarraldo" by the Indians and Spanish who inhabit his godforsaken corner of South America. He loves opera. He spends his days making a little money from an ice factory and his nights dreaming up new schemes. One of them, a plan to build a railroad across the continent, has already failed. Now he is ready with another: He seriously intends to build an opera house in the rain jungle, twelve hundred miles upstream from the civilized coast, and to bring Enrico Caruso there to sing an opera.
If his plan is mad, his method for carrying it out is madness of another dimension. Looking at the map, he becomes obsessed with the fact that a nearby river system offers access to hundreds of thousands of square miles of potential trading customers -- if only a modern steamship could be introduced into that system. There is a point, he notices, where the other river is separated only by a thin finger of land from a river that already is navigated by boats. His inspiration: Drag a steamship across land to the other river, float it, set up a thriving trade, and use the profits to build the opera house -- and then bring in Caruso! This scheme is so unlikely that perhaps we should not be surprised that Herzog's story is based on the case of a real Irish entrepreneur who tried to do exactly that.
The historical Irishman was at least wise enough to disassemble his boat before carting it across land. In Herzog's movie, however, Fitzcarraldo determines to drag the boat up one hill and down the other side in one piece. He enlists engineers to devise a system of blocks-and-pulleys that will do the trick, and he hires the local Indians to work the levers with their own muscle power. And it is here that we arrive at the thing about "Fitzcarraldo" that transcends all understanding: Werner Herzog determined to literally drag a real steamship up a real hill, using real tackle and hiring the local Indians! To produce the movie, he decided to do personally what even the original Fitzgerald never attempted.
Herzog finally settled on the right actor to play Fitzcarraldo, author of this plan: Klaus Kinski, the shock-haired German who starred in Herzog's "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" and "Nosferatu," is back again to mastermind the effort. Kinski is perfectly cast. Herzog's original choice for the role was Jason Robards, who is also gifted at conveying a consuming passion, but Kinski, wild-eyed and ferocious, consumes the screen. There are other characters important to the story, especially Claudia Cardinale as the madam who loves Fitzcarraldo and helps finance his attempt, but without Kinski at the core it's doubtful this story would work.
The story of Herzog's own production is itself well-known, and has been told in Les Blank's "Burden of Dreams," a brilliant documentary about the filming. It's possible that every moment of "Fitzcarraldo" is colored by our knowledge that Herzog was "really" doing the things we see Fitzcarraldo do. (The movie uses no special effects, no models, no opticals, no miniatures.) Perhaps we're even tempted to give the movie extra points because of Herzog's ordeal in the jungle.
But "Fitzcarraldo" is not all sweat and madness. It contains great poetic images of the sort Herzog is famous for: An old phonograph playing a Caruso record on the deck of a boat spinning out of control into a rapids; Fitzcarraldo frantically oaring a little rowboat down a jungle river to be in time to hear an opera; and of course the immensely impressive sight of that actual steamship, resting halfway up a hillside.
"Fitzcarraldo" is not a perfect movie, and it never comes together into a unified statement. It is meandering, and it is slow and formless at times. Perhaps the conception was just too large for Herzog to shape. The movie does not approach perfection as "Aguirre" did. But as a document of a quest and a dream, and as the record of man's audacity and foolish, visionary heroism, there has never been another movie like it.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

In a .338 Lifetime Average, Every Day Counted
I was a teenager when I first interviewed Gwynn, working for a small magazine I published from home. This was not Sports Illustrated or ESPN. He had no special reason to be nice. But every time the Padres came to town, Gwynn would greet me warmly.
He noticed things others would not. One time we spoke, I was wearing a Vanderbilt golf shirt. Gwynn noticed the logo and asked if I went there. When I said yes, he lit up. The Padres beat writer Buster Olney, of The San Diego Union-Tribune, also went there, Gwynn said excitedly. "You've got to meet him!" he said.
Pause for a moment to consider how rare this is. Few players would bother to notice a detail on a reporter's shirt. Few would know which college the team's beat writer had attended. Fewer still would then offer, with genuine enthusiasm, to play matchmaker.
But that was Gwynn. When our interview ended, he went back to the clubhouse, found Olney and brought him to the dugout to meet me. A few years later Olney was writing for The New York Times, and he recommended me for a job. Gwynn had set me on my career path.

I learned this week that Gwynn (for years) spent a lot of time in the offseason in Indianapolis, he owned a home in the area as his spouse/family had business ties here, and he was quite the local booster of teams, businesses and people.

"So Many Angles"
A high class P.I. firm with so many cases, and emotional ties and hangups, and yet it was somewhat entertaining. The climax of each case for the most part seemed very unsuspenseful, especially in light of the build up for each one.
"Another fun, fast-paced read from Patterson"
Patterson (& Paetro) is always one of my go- to authors when I'm looking for light reading. This is my first audible.com with him. I was hesitant because Patterson tends to like short, quick chapters with lots of characters. Would I be able to keep everyone straight? Peter Hermann did an outstanding job reading this book "to me". I was able to keep the characters and plot straight while enjoying all the little extras that Patterson throws in. It was a great combination: Great book; fabulous narration!
I am a long haul owner operator truck driver, listening to audio books has been a salvation for me.
"Private: book one"
Good story, and good characters, keeps moving forward. The narrator has a good voice for the male characters but not the female ones. kinda hard to differentiate between the two sometimes. But all in all easy to listen to. I'm moving on to book 2
Patterson is usually a good read..I had to work to get thru this book. Main character was flat
love grabbing a book that has me racing to the last page
"a good multi-layered story"
thought the book and it's content were all great, but I feel like there were several items, issues, plots, scenes and scenarios that felt rushed or incomplete
"Solid story"
While this is my first read in this series, I look forward to the next books. Altho this was a little slow, I can see how this neat premise can (hopefully) become an interesting series of good reads. I thought his previous books were getting a little same old, same old.
"Enjoyed every moment"
I haven't read James Patterson for a while and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Private.
"A mystery?"
I enjoyed this book, but I'm not sure I liked the formate of the story. I knew the answer and I was hoping for something more umm scary.
I purchased this book because it was on sale and I thought "if I don't like it, no big deal" but, to my surprise it was a very good book. The flow was consistent the characters were believable and although there were several characters I was only confused once, lol.
That's the good points, however, I was a bit disappointed by the relationship the main character had with his twin and I wanted some back story on the father.
As far as the narrator, I think this is my first time hearing him narrate and he did a wonderful job at putting in the story making you feel each emotion. Over all, I'm glad I purchased the book.

The Maltese with bad teeth loves the food and the other dogs love to clean the can. Wish the cans didn't have such sharp edges, and many of the cans are dented even though they are boxed.
Lol, now that I have your attention my two little dogs love Mighty Dog. When I first got my dogs I went through trial and error to see what they liked the best without spending a fortune. Some feeds made them sick, some gave them diarrhea, etc. My dogs split one can mixed with Purina One Smart Blend. It seems to do the trick as the eyes, hair and nails appear healthy. In fact I never seen whiter nails on a dog until I started this mix. They went from a clearish white to a bright white. The dogs never get sick anymore. One is 13 and the other 14 and still get around great. It's important to feed your dog the same diet. Their digestive system doesn't adapt well to change. So don't think you are spoiling them with a buffet of feed. Stick to one good food. Mighty Dog is a good wet food to mix with a dry.
I have a very picky chihuahua. It's almost impossible to find a dog food he likes. He likes Mighty Dog been and chicken meals in gravy, so I buy it by the case.
My dogs eat this all the time. Even my little kitten tries to grab a bite. I love their slogan "for small dogs with big attitudes."
I've always had large dogs, and since Mighty Dog has come on the market I have been feeding ti to all of my dogs thru the years. They all loved it, it doesn't upset stomachs, and it's easy to mix with the dry kibble.
I am so glad they had this product stocked and eye level on the shelf. It is usually out of the flavor i need or i have to bend over and reach and i have a bad back and hip so it makes it hard so i am soooo glad they moved it
Good price, smelled fine just thicker cuts and the dogs are
Use to gettingel "pulled " mighty dog they turned their noses
up at this at first.
This is a good basic dog food that even my fussy Sheltie likes...can be suppemented with dry food for a little extra volume
Thought I would try it and my dog absolutely loves it...will continue to purchase.
My dogs love this. Excellant, thank you
little dogs love it.
Im a coupon person so if you use these, I would buy this product in the store. Its a great deal, esp if you want it shipped to your home.

Re: HP ENVY 700-210xt hard drive configurat

Desktop Computer
Hard Drive Zinc
Hex Head Machine Screw
6-32 x 1/4
I thought these screws would work but they did not. When installed the drive would not fit into the cage.
Re: HP ENVY 700-210xt hard drive configurat
Good luck and hopefully HP reverses the "head up their arse" situation regarding availability of these proprietary components.
Re: HP ENVY 700-210xt hard drive configurat
Yes - the above solution from airstang worked well for me. I replaced the four screws on the back of the case that secure the power supply with standard 6-32 screws I had from another PC. I then used the smooth-head screws to mount the second disk drive.
I am incredulous that HP would sell a computer that required proprietary mounting screws for a second HDD, and they didn't include any extras in the case. Adding a second disk drive is a common upgrade for many users. I completely agree with the previous comment about HP having their "head up their arse" on this one.
Re: HP ENVY 700-210xt hard drive configurat
I'm glad the work around worked. So sad that HP can't manage to deliver on a screw.

I assume you are asking about the (low profile socket) Fillister head Torx T-15 / Slot machine screw?
Usage of that type of screw can be traced back to Compaq Desktop and Portable Computers in the 1980s. There are English 6-32 (hard drives/removable chassis cages) and Metric M3 (CD/DVD) versions, in at least 2 lengths -- for each type.
I acquire my repair/restoration supply from the Texas and Florida "computer parts chop shops" for HP and Dell computers.
These screws also appear routinely on eBay.
I just ordered 50 from an Isreal-based jobber (scrap operator), that should arrive later this month.
Ambry.com is one such supplier.
Amazing that no one answered this, common HP computer service bench issue in North America.
BTW, it was also an issue for IBM PC dealers in 1980s, as well.
Guess no one worked in production/manufacturing, before that was shipped in East Asia in early 1990s.

Dakotah - On Television
The internet television news outlet, www.ukiahvalley.tv and their reporter, Tamara Drake, published their story on Dakotah yesterday and I posted it on his MySpace page: www.myspace.com/rondakotahRon asked that I convey his sentiments regarding the events of Sunday and they are as follows:http://worldonline.media.clients.ellingtoncms.com/img/blogs/entry_img/2009/Jan/07/IMG_1059.jpgGreetings, to all my friends;The last few days have been a mixed bag of goodies that have left me with a host of emotions. Everything from fear (when I was told by the CHP officer that they were there to arrest me) to anger (for having my right to travel freely within the country of my citizenship infringed upon) to extreme gratefulness for the help given to me when it looked like my journey (and my lifestyle) was about to end.I am camped right now on Highway 16, near the little California berg called Capay. I am sitting in an area that looks untouched by modern civilization since the time when my mode of travel was commonplace.My horses are so happy to eat the lush grass that they actually walked over the alfalfa I put out for them this evening. While I was watching my team enjoy a well deserved rest and renew, I too have had a moment to let the last few days settle in and make sense.To that end, I want you all to know that, even though the CHP acted in a manner that was inconvenient for many (I, being the least of which, as I have no actual destination or schedule) they were acting in good-faith towards what they perceived as a dire and unsafe situation.I could make a case for my road-worthiness, as after 25 years living on the road as I have, but the greater good was to humble myself and ride this bronc out.Even at my age, I am not above having my character built up. And this was one good thing to come out of the experience. Even greater still, was the chance to meet folk just like myself. .Spencer Brewer and his wife Ester Siegel; along with John Tilley and Alvin and Sally Tollini; Tamara Drake (www. ukiah. tv) and Don Nichols and his girlfriend, Diana; just to name a few.I am living a life of my choosing and at a speed that gives me an appreciation for the little things most people can't see at sixty miles an hour. I see every sunrise and sunset and it is the tabernacle in which I worship.I am thankful to have met everyone of you that have stopped, and those who couldn't stop but sent words of appreciation and encouragement via MySpace.Chuck here is my mouth-piece, as I don't type; and if I tried, I would never be able to get very far. And, as you may have noticed, I don't sit too well.Happy trails to all my MySpace friends. I'll be in touch again soon.Happy Trails,Dakotah

Meetup Group Rules (These are in addition to meetup.com's T&C's)
a) Contacting Other Members (This is NOT a dating website) Please feel free to greet other members welcoming them, or offering them advice etc. However, please do not Facebook friend, a member of the group unless you have met them at one of the events and/or you have both agreed to contact one another. This is not match.com, and so Do Not use our member listing as your own personal free dating site. We take this kind of behaviour very seriously and ask all members to report any unwelcomed advance or unsolicited email they received.
b) Participation and "No Show" Policies
We are working hard to bring you a large amount of diverse events, but we can't do this if you do not participate. We are an active group and we want our members to be active as well.
c) RSVPs
In general, you may RSVP or drop out at the last minute as long as you change your RSVP online or contact the event host directly. The exceptions are events that have a limited number of seats or tickets or events where we specify that we need a head count by a set date. Those events are always clearly marked.
d) Events and Event Restrictions
When you're at events, participate, get to know people, and have fun. If you're a shy person, then your organizers will try to help you out by getting you acclimated to the group. That's our job. Please be respectful during events when you talk with others. We recognize that everyone's personality is different, but if someone asks you to stop doing something, then stop. We are aware that with a group of diverse people from different backgrounds, age ranges, and beliefs, disagreements and misunderstandings are bound to surface. However, we will not tolerate disrespectful behaviour at events. We reserve the right to remove any member from an event with limited seating/tickets if they have previously been marked as a "No Show" for another event with limited seating/tickets or whose record indicates that they habitually "No Show" to events.
e) Taking photos
We all like to have happy memories of the good times we've shared at Meetup events, it's only natural. Please observe these simple rules.
1) Take as many photos as you like to upload to the Meetup site as long as they are in good taste
2) Feel free to ask someone to remove or untag a photo of you.
If you upload a photo which has other members in it, and one of them asks you to remove it, for whatever reason, please respect such requests and comply. The organisers will do this if a member does not comply with such a request.
f) Removal For Non-Participation
We reserve the right to remove any member who does not participate in the group for 6 or more months or habitually "No Shows". Removal from the group for this reason does not result in a ban and members are free to rejoin at any time.
g) Zero Tolerance Behavior
In this group we have absolutely no tolerance for the following behaviour:
- Fighting or any sort of physical altercation
- Sexual harassment of any member
- Destruction of others property
- Harassment in the form of continually trying to solicit or approach any person who has made it clear they are not interested in talking or interacting with you.
If any of these behaviours come to our attention, the event hosts / organizers reserve the right to ask the member to leave the event immediately and / or permanently ban the member from the group.
h) Self Moderation
Remember that you're out in public and among a group of people who you want to make a positive lasting impression on. While we can't control or curtail your behaviour, just ask yourself, do you really want to be known as "the one who drank too much and danced on the bar" or "That person who always makes really crude jokes and belches in your face."?
Some of our events will be in places that have alcohol, so we ask that you know your limit, know when to cut yourself off, know when it's time to go home, know when it's time to call a taxi, know when to ask your organizer for help.
Never let any other member make you feel uncomfortable. When in doubt, talk to one of the organizers.
i) Event Hosts / Organizers
Please remember that hosts and organizers are volunteers. We do this in our own time, and a lot of times with our money and using our time and resources to make these events happen. If we ask you to do (or not do) something while at one of our events, please politely comply.
Some Meetups will take place in the home of the person hosting or organizing the event. Respect other people's homes, respect their property, respect when it's time to "go home" after a long night.
Remember that the Organiser and Assistant Organisers have the undisputable right to remove or ban any member if we have valid reasons to do so for any reason without question or consultation. We always have the final word.
j) Limitation of Liability
You attend all meetup events at your own risk. As stated previously, you agreed to the terms of service when you became members of Meetup as a whole and as such, you agreed to the following in Meetup's TOS.
"5.2 Release. Because we do not supervise or control the Meetup Gatherings or interactions among between users and other persons or companies, and because we are not involved in any way with physical transportation to or from these Meetup Gatherings or with the actions of any individuals at these Meetup Gatherings, and because we do not control Paypal, credit card companies or other payment processing companies, and because we cannot guarantee the true identity, age, nationality of Platform users, and because we have very limited control, if any, over the quality, safety, morality, legality, truthfulness or accuracy of various aspects of the Platform you agree that you bear all risk and you agree to release us (and our officers, directors, shareholders, agents, employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, and third party partners) and Meetup Group Organizers from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, now and in the future, arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the Platform, your Third Party Transactions, our resolution of any disputes among users, and/or your transportation to or from, attendance at, or the actions of you or other persons at, a Meetup Gathering."

This is a great plugin. It's descriptive and addresses some of the major issues caused by AJAX for those unaware. Most times with ajax the url doesn't change and the fact that it automatically changes the url is KEY to its success as a WordPress plugin. They do a good job of letting you know what to do to resolve issues.
I started a music blog and needed an effective solution to allow the audio player to play uninterrupted across pages. This did it. I found it much easier and custom to implement than Jetpack's infinite scroll.
It does take a little bit of stumbling around to utilize it effectively in a custom theme, but once I got it rolling it saved me a lot of time.
It would be nice to have a cleaner field to add the reload scripts, as well as style the page loading info, but I haven't purchased it yet so I shouldn't expect a damn thing. I also think the code comments albeit funny maybe a little unprofessional. I think it also heavily clutters up the header portion of my site.

Dermatologic Manifestations of Neurilemmoma (Schwannoma) Workup
- Author: Kara Melissa T Torres, MD, DPDS; Chief Editor: Dirk M Elston, MD more...
Laboratory Studies
Microscopic examination of the tumor biopsy tissue and clinicopathologic correlation establishes the correct diagnosis. The diagnostic microscopic features are described in Histologic Findings.
Masson trichrome stain can be used to demonstrate the presence of longitudinal striations observed in smooth muscle tumors to differentiate a cutaneous leiomyoma from a neurilemmoma, which lacks striations.
Immunostaining using anti–S-100 protein antibody confirms the presence of Schwann cells. In addition, vimentin, myelin basic protein, glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) are expressed in most cases.[18, 21] On rare occasions, benign schwannomas may express alpha-smooth muscle actin.[28]
Imaging Studies
With routine radiographic examination, neurilemmomas generally appear as sharply circumscribed tumor masses.
CT scan images show circumscribed, low-attenuation masses with uniform or heterogeneous contrast enhancement.
MRI reveals a high T2 signal and heterogeneous contrast enhancement.
Both CT scan images and MRI show that large tumors often have areas of cystic changes. Benign neurilemmomas do not show active irregular invasion of bone, as is observed in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors.
Histologic Findings
The correct diagnosis of neurilemmoma is established by microscopic examination of tumor biopsy tissue.
Gross appearance
Cutaneous neurilemmomas present usually as a solitary dermal or subcutaneous nodule. However, lesions may be protruding or pedunculated.[29] In general, these lesions are firm, smooth-surfaced, and smaller than 10 cm. Most neurilemmomas affect small nerves. The smaller examples are rounded, somewhat elastic in consistency, and milky-white or semitranslucent. The larger tumors are lobulated irregularly and, by virtue of secondary degenerative changes, become partly or mainly cystic with calcification (ie, ancient change). Areas of hemorrhage and opaque creamy-yellow tumorous tissue are observed on the cut surface (see the image below)
Some tumors manifest as a firm rubbery nodule with a whorled appearance on the cut surface, resembling smooth muscle tumors of the uterus. The plexiform or multinodular variant, which accounts for approximately 5% of neurilemmomas, may be discernible upon gross examination (see the images below).
Microscopic appearance
Most tumors are unilocular masses surrounded by a fibrous capsule composed of epineurium and residual nerve fibers. While this capsule is evident in most tumors, those arising in mucosa (eg, nose, nasopharynx), the central nervous system, and viscera often lack a capsule. Intradermal neurilemmomas and the plexiform or multinodular growth pattern similar to a plexiform neurofibroma are rare. Histologically, the characteristic feature of a neurilemmoma is the pattern of alternating Antoni type A and B areas.
Antoni type A areas (as shown in the image) consist of compact, spindle-shaped cells with twisted nuclei, indistinct cytoplasmic borders, and, occasionally, clear intranuclear vacuoles.
The cells are arranged in short bundles or interlacing fascicles with nuclear palisading, whirling of the cells, and Verocay bodies. Verocay bodies are formed by 2 compact rows of well-aligned nuclei and cell processes that are arranged in a roughly oval shape (see the image below). Verocay bodies are more distinctive of schwannomas than the Antoni A and Antoni B patterns, but they are not seen in all schwannomas.
Mitotic figures are rare. S-100 protein, an acidic protein commonly found in the supporting cells of the central and peripheral nervous system, is demonstrated in neurilemmomas, particularly in the Antoni type A areas. Antoni B areas are less cellular and are often disorderly. The capsule is typically positive for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA).[29] The spindle or oval cells are arranged haphazardly in the loose matrix with microcystic changes, inflammatory cells, and delicate collagen fibers. Prominent, irregularly spaced blood vessels are present in the stroma. The psammomatous melanotic neurilemmoma (schwannoma) shows, in addition to the above features, melanin deposition and concentric calcified bodies (psammoma bodies).
Schwannomas have been variably observed to be GFAP and occasionally keratin positive, with antibodies reacting with multiple keratins (pankeratins, keratin cocktail (CK) (AE1/AE3). Both markers highlighted the cellular Antoni A areas, particularly adjacent to the capsule, myxoid or degenerative areas, and perivascularly. In recent studies of a large series of retroperitoneal schwannomas, 84% of the tumors stained positive for both AE1/AE3 and GFAP. However, the tumor cells were negative for specific keratin polypeptides (K). The findings can be attributed to cross reactivity of AE1/AE3 with other intermediate filament proteins, such as GFAP.[30] Schwannomas contain Leu7 and S-100 protein.
Ultrastructural examination of the tumor reveals almost exclusively a single cell type (ie, Schwann cells). They have characteristic thin cell processes that arrange in undulating layers and are continuous from the cell body. The Schwann cell surface is coated with basal lamina composed of electron-dense material measuring approximately 50 nm (see the image).
The basal lamina lies in stacks between the cells along with typical and long-spacing collagen fibrils with a 130-nm periodicity. These collagen fibrils are often referred to as a Luse body (see the image).
The cytoplasm contains a flattened and sometimes invaginated nucleus, microfibrils, rare lysosomes, and scattered mitochondria. In Antoni B areas, the Schwann cells have increased numbers of lysosomes and myelin figures and fragmented basal lamina.
Immunohistochemical staining using anti–S-100 protein antibody demonstrates uniformly and intensely positive staining of Schwann cells in the tumor (see the image).
This technique serves as an important diagnostic tool, and, in severely degenerated neurilemmomas, S-100 protein stain is most valuable for confirming the diagnosis.
The results of immunostaining for myelin proteins used to identify benign and malignant Schwann cell tumors have been variable.
Histologic differential diagnosis
The loose, myxomatous Antoni type B tissue of a neurilemmoma may mimic a neurofibroma. However, neurofibromas lack the thick collagenous capsule of neurilemmomas and instead are surrounded by a variably thickened perineurium and epineurium. Neurofibromas also lack the Antoni type A and B patterns and Verocay bodies typical of neurilemmomas. Neurofibromas are composed of a mucinous matrix containing scattered, myelinated, and nonmyelinated axons along with a heterogeneous cell population including Schwann cells, fibroblasts, and perineural cells. Consequently, immunoreactivity for S-100 protein is observed in only a portion of the cells comprising a neurofibroma, as opposed to uniform reactivity throughout a neurilemmoma.
Palisaded encapsulated neuroma
This is an uncommon, generally solitary, asymptomatic intraneural neuroma that may arise in early childhood or adulthood. It appears as a firm, rubbery, skin-colored or pink papule commonly affecting the "butterfly area" of the face. Palisaded encapsulated neuromas are bulbous expansions of a peripheral nerve. They appear as well-circumscribed, ovoid, or rounded nodules in the dermis, which, in contrast to neurilemmomas, contain a greater number of axons and Schwann cells in interlacing fascicles along with characteristic cleftlike spaces.
These are distinguished from astrocytoma and ependymoma by their abundant parenchymal reticulin, which is positive for type IV collagen. Schwannomas have characteristic contiguous basement membranes along the exterior surfaces of their cells. Although occasionally focal positive staining for GFAP may be present, negative GFAP staining supports the diagnosis of schwannoma. Astrocytomas are generally GFAP positive.
Fibrous meningiomas
These lack typical meningeal whorls and psammoma bodies, and they can be difficult to differentiate from schwannomas. EMA is a useful immunomarker for distinguishing the 2 tumors. Meningiomas are reactive with EMA, while schwannomas (except for their surrounding capsules) are not. GFAP can sometimes be used, because some schwannomas are positive but meningiomas are negative.
Cutaneous leiomyoma
Leiomyomas are benign smooth muscle tumors. They are not derived from neural tissue and generally lack the thick, hyalinized capsule and vasculature of a neurilemmoma. Palisading resembling Verocay bodies may be observed. The blunt-ended nuclei and densely eosinophilic cytoplasm of smooth muscle cells showing distinct cell borders and perinuclear halos help distinguish them from Schwann cells (with their more tapered, spindle-shaped nuclei).
Immunohistochemical stains readily distinguish leiomyomas from neurilemmomas, the former staining with myogenic cell markers, such as smooth muscle actin and desmin, and the latter showing positive staining with S-100. It should be noted that schwannomas have been reported to express actin.[28] Masson trichrome stain may be used to demonstrate the longitudinal striations characteristic of smooth muscle tumors. The ultrastructural features of smooth muscle cells are also highly characteristic, being bounded by a basement membrane and often containing parallel arrays of abundant cytoplasmic microfilaments (actin) with interspersed fusiform dense bodies and pinocytotic vesicles.
Palisaded myofibroblastoma
These contain palisaded cells and Verocay bodies that may mimic neurilemmomas. However, palisaded myofibroblastomas involve lymph nodes, contain fibroblastic and myofibroblastic elements, and are negative for S-100 protein staining.

For an average Indian, an understanding of miniatures rarely goes beyond the traditional Mughal and Rajasthani miniature paintings. The Harmony Art Show 2011, a brainchild of art aficionado Tina Ambani, however, interprets miniatures through the works of contemporary artists, stressing the idea that miniatures can mean many different things. It may be a work created with intricate "miniatured" detailing; it may refer to the size of the subject in the painting (the subject would be restricted to a specific, and, relatively, smaller size); and it may, of course, refer to the size of the painting itself.
Under that definition, even a Florentine Renaissance painter like Sandro Botticelli can qualify as a miniaturist. Which is why artist T Venkanna has adapted Botticelli's masterpiece Birth of Venus to the present day by painting the goddess Venus as a dark-skinned woman. It's an attempt, he says, to comment on racism. "I wanted to represent beauty in a contemporary manner," explains the Baroda-based artist, "This work focuses on the inner aspect of beauty, rather than appearance."
Looking at the traditional miniature through contemporary eyes and drawing inspiration from it is what the Harmony Art Show, being held in Mumbai, seeks to do. "The show explores how inspiration is drawn from the past, integrated, internalised and then externalised by the painters of today," says BN Goswamy, a distinguished art historian.
The show opened at Coomaraswamy Hall, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya, on August 6, and will continue till August 14.
Called "Fabular Bodies: New Narratives in the Art of the Miniature", this year's exhibition focuses on how the art form has moved into the present day through the works of contemporary artists, who have drawn inspiration from traditional miniatures. For instance, there are sculptures that use materials such as staple pins and ball bearings to comment on urban life today.

Definitely be back :)
