Brandi Kerns braved the mall Saturday for one last essential errand -- getting her nephew Murphy a special toy.
But she wasn't scrambling to find the latest Xbox or Nerf Blaster. She was culling through gingerbread rawhide and reindeer chew toys, in search of the perfect way to express her affection -- for her sister's dog.
"He'd notice if we didn't get him anything," Kerns said with a smile Saturday at the PetSmart on Coleman Avenue in San Jose.
Millions of pet owners throughout the nation put Fluffy and Rover on their holiday lists this year, hoping to make theirs a wagnificent Christmas.
According to a Petfinder.com survey, 66 percent of Americans planned to give their pet a new toy to celebrate the holidays, including 63 percent of dog owners and 58 percent of people with cats.
The grand ca-ching? About $5 billion annually for all holiday gifts. (Presumably, this includes at least a few million for Halloween, when feisty felines can now morph -- "fuss-free" -- into a rhinoceros via a fancy costume with a big gray felt horn or into Daniel Boone in a fringed tan jacket, according to Mousebreath, a popular cat lovers magazine.)
For Christmas, pet lovers could pick such gifts as edible greeting cards that coo, "Merry Christmas, Faithful Friend" or "Holiday Wish for a Tasty Fish." Only $2.29 each.
Or how about a turquoise Martha Stewart bathrobe for $19.99? Or would the designer's classic houndstooth check pullover go better with Rover's adoring brown eyes?
Few psychiatrists have opined on the growing popularity of Christmas gifts for pets in the worst economy since the Great Depression. But it's safe to say that it was less expensive Saturday for Santa Clara residents Ken and Linda Thomas to spend $15 on a reindeer chew toy and other stocking stuffers for their 3-year-old Jack Russell Sophie than it would have been to spend the holidays in Hawaii.
"We had to get Sophie something -- all the other kids are getting stuff,"Linda Thomas said.
"They're all around college age," Ken Thomas chimed in. "Sophie has been keeping us from having an empty nest."
Last year, pet owners nationwide spent an average of $41 to coddle their pets. This year, they are expected to fork over $46.
Ty Walias of San Jose was looking for gifts that would help make up for his failing to devote quite as much time as he would have liked to this year to Augie, his half-Rottweiler, half-Australian shepherd.
"He's totally my best friend, Walias said. "He makes me laugh all the time. Plus, my partner and I have been paying a lot of attention to our other dog, who's 15 and very ill. I really feel like Augie deserves some special attention."
Lack of attention isn't a problem for Odessa Pullin's 13-pound dog Jojo, who is serenaded to sleep every night by the crooning of the lullaby "Rock-a-bye Baby." Pullin and one of her sisters, Jerri Garcia (yes, but spelled differently), call Jojo "spoiled." They were carting home a new rubber chicken for him anyway.
"He's going to see us opening presents and want one," Garcia said.
Sometimes all the gifts in the world can pale in comparison to a day at the spa. Groomer Amber Storment -- scratch that, she prefers the term "pet stylist'' -- was busy on the day before Christmas giving a white Maltese a half-inch trim and "teddy bear head."
Even after Christmas, when all the pet presents go on sale, the salon at PetSmart is nearly booked. After all, Storment said, pets still need to look their best -- at around $40 a pop -- for those holiday family photos.

The meeting was called in response to acts of the British Parliament, collectively known in the Colonies as the Intolerable Acts. Among other things, those acts closed Boston Harbor until Bostonians paid for tea destroyed during the Boston Tea Party. The First Continental Congress helped define common grievances against Great Britain and solidified colonial resolve to band together to encourage or force Parliament to address those grievances.

Having endured three seasons in which her team went a combined 17-69, junior guard Megan Straumann says she lost a lot of sleep wondering who the new coach of the University of Rhode Island women�s basketball team would be. But when Daynia La-Force �was the one that picked up the phone, I don�t think I could have been happier.
�She�s really going to be great,� said Straumann, who joined URI supporters in welcoming La-Force as the Rams� newly-appointed head coach, this evening at the Mew�s Tavern. �It�s definitely been a roller coaster of emotions, so I think I�m just focusing on staying in the moment. I�m just very thankful that I do have one more year to have a fresh start.�
La-Force, who spent the past eight seasons as head coach at Northeastern, had recruited Tayra Melendez and Kiara Palmer to play for the Huskies before they ultimately chose URI.
�It�s honestly a joy and it�s really exciting to know somebody like her is going to lead the team now,� said Melendez, the Rams� leading scorer as a sophomore this season.

Remicade User Reviews
Remicade - User Reviews
Remicade User Reviews
Now you can gain knowledge and insight about a drug treatment with Patient Discussions.
Here is a collection of user reviews for the medication Remicade sorted by most helpful.
this medication has been the difference of life and death for me. i have Rheumatoid Arthritis & Crohn's disease. the benefits of this medication are numerous. It enables me to live and work. i have never had any adverse side effects. best medication ever!!
My dad died June 10th from multiorgan failure due to histoplasmosis. He had complained of side effects to treatment doctors and staff, but they assured him there wasn't a problem. He was in a lot of pain for several weeks before he died. So, my advice is to make sure to be tested often for these infections if you choose to try this treatment.
Related Reading: histoplasmosis
I am in complete remision and have been for about two and a half years without side effects. I think you should at least try it it your doctor feels it right for you. The three hour infusion time has become me time and is a good time to unwind.
Have been on Remicade for 10+ years and my life has gone from almost cripple with 7 joints replaced to an active peerson who regularly goes to exeercise and yoga classes. For me, it is a quality of life issue. Yes, there may be side effects which fortunately I have not had but I am willing to take the risks and be a contributing member of society than being someone with debilitating pain and depressed.
This treatment had the opposite effect and seemed to cause a "speed up" in the disease.A waste of my financial resourses.I was hoping for a different result.Because of a reaction in the middle of my last infusion(5th),the DR. decided this treatment had to be terminated.
I'm one of the rare ones....took my first infusion in Sept. and 1 week later ended up in the ER where I stopped breathing and spent the next 6 days in the ICU. As I understand it, the belief is that I had a reaction to the mouse protein in the Remicade.
Before being on Remicade i took steriods which totally messed my whole body up, like most of CD and UC patients. Still under those i was cramping and using the restroom alot. After the first treatments i felt tremendously better. The only downside is the three hour sit a the Dr. every 8 weeks. Thats not too bad since i was used to being at the Dr. Office. I was diagnosed in 2003 with UC, 6 months later i had a colectomy followed by a reversal of my ileostomy. After all my surgeries were over i thought i was ok but started cramping and bleeding again. I now have Crohns but Remicade has been amazing and i am now enrolled in school taking 21 hours and working as a construction manager 3 days a week. Remicade works.
I am a 42 yr old man who, 2 years ago, seemed to contract Rheumatoid Arthritis overnight. I woke up one morning almost unable to walk due to severe pain in my ankles. Within a couple of weeks the pain had spread to nearly all of my joints. I could not even turn a doorknob with one hand...I had to use both hands. Remicade has saved my life. It has allowed me to again be active with my kids. And thats what was one of my main concerns. I've experienced no side effects. I get treatments every 8 weeks & I still experience minimal joint stiffness from time to time between treatments. If you have Arthritis, this drug can give you your life back.
I was on Remicade for at least three years. I did go into remission with my Crohn's for about one year. I continued the infusions every 8 weeks (instead of 6) as a maintainance therapy. I was given 2 Tylenol by mouth, Benadryl, Phenergan, and Solymedarol(sp?) (steriod) as pre-meds through my IV prior to receiving Remicade. The pre-meds were very helpful to aleviate the itching, nausia and headaches I would get from Remicade. I also found it very helpful when the nurses would slow down the rate of speed the infusion was being administered. Due to changes in health insurance coverage I have decided to give Humira a try for financial reasons. I had my first four pen injections today. I found it to be very painful. I will follow some of the tips I have read on WebMD in 2 weeks when I have to have 2 more. I had a friend who is a nuse give them to me. Because the shots burn so bad I am not sure if I will ever be able to inject myself. She suggest I try to see if I can get a RX for a vial to inject with a syringe instead of using the pen. I may be going back to Remicade if Humira doesn't work out. Good luck to you in your treatment!

Stem Cell Research - What is it? (cont.)
Is there any hope that down the road it can also help people with COPD?
There is a possibility, but I think it's a distant possibility. That represents a phase of regenerative, reparative medicine, which is still far in the future. It's possible that what we learn from these cells will enable us to custom engineer new tissues to replace damaged tissues. That is far in the future.
How long of a period of time will that be for those of us who have been type I for more than 35 years?
The treatment of type I diabetes by what we will call "cell therapy" may not depend on stem cells. It is possible that pancreatic islet cells, which are the cells that produce insulin, can be transplanted and can grow in number to provide a possibility for treating type I diabetes. There have been some reports of success with this approach appearing. How many years before cell therapy is widely available? My guess would be at least 10 years.
Do we really need to harvest stem cells from embryos when skin cells and blood products have given such promising results?
That is the hard question. We don't know what the limitations are on stem cells from the skin, from the blood, from umbilical cord blood. It is possible that these cells may be able to do everything that embryonic stem cells might be able to do. However, if we use these cells and we fail, we will not know whether we failed because of technical reasons or we failed because we really required an embryonic stem cell. Scientists would prefer to use all possible approaches -- that is embryonic stem cells and other stem cells.
I have been told that in England and Japan stem cell research is being tested for patients like me who have amyotrophic lateral sclerosis -- Lou Gehrig's disease. I have tried to research this online and I have been unsuccessful finding anything. Where can I find out more information?
I have not heard of it being tested, and I know of no success in animals with stem cell treatment for the animals that have the human form of ALS. That does mean it is not being tried, but I don't know the results. I would suggest the ALS Society might be the best source of information.
Do you really think that stem cell therapy will someday cure multiple sclerosis?
That is an area where there could be a great deal of promise for stem cell therapy. Would that be the cure? I do not know. It's possible to think stem cells could be put in and repair the damage to the nerve sheath in MS. It is also possible that the new cells would be attacked in the same way as the original cells were, but this would be one area of potential stem cell application.
We have several people inquiring about stem cell therapy to repair catastrophic nerve damage from trauma. Do you see this as a promising area of research?
This has potential, especially as the therapies could be applied shortly after injury.
We are almost out of time, Dr. Shelanski. Before we wrap things up for today, do you have any final words for us?
I remain committed to the belief that stem cells will eventually be useful in treating a variety of diseases, and that what we learn about stem cells will enable us to also develop new drug treatments to treat these same diseases.
Finally, we should remember there are also stem cells in adults, and as we understand how to make embryonic stem cells show their potential, we will probably also be able to use the knowledge that we have obtained to enable us to exploit the potential of adult stem cells in the brain and in other tissues.
Our thanks to Michael Shelanski, MD, PhD, for joining us. For more information, please check out the links on our web site for stem cell research and visit the condition centers for Parkinson's disease and other conditions that may benefit from this research.

Sarah Chapman named #Seawolves assistant coach
June 17, 2014
Stony Brook, N.Y. - Sarah Chapman, a winner throughout her playing and coaching careers, has been named an assistant coach for the Stony Brook women's soccer team, head coach Sue Ryan announced Tuesday.
"We are excited that Sarah is a member of our Stony Brook women's soccer staff," beamed Ryan. "Sarah has a great passion for the game and will be involved in all facets of our program. She is a rising star among the early career coaches in our profession."
Chapman played at the University of Florida from 2008-11. During her four years in Gainesville, the Gators appeared in the NCAA Tournament four times, winning the SEC championship three times and the SEC tournament in 2010. She won five NCAA tournament games in that span, including a run to the round of 16 as a freshman. Chapman was named to the Soccer America National Team of the Week and was also voted SEC Freshman of the Week as a player.
Prior to her time at Florida, Chapman was a highly-touted prep star out of Silver Spring, Maryland, where she earned all-conference, all-state and Parade All-American accolades at Our Lady of Good Counsel High School. She was also a member of the Bethesda Extreme Soccer Club and Freestate Shooters, where she won Maryland State Tournament and State Cup titles. Chapman also competed for the Maryland State ODP team and Region I team, winning numerous regional championships as well as a national championship in 2006. She was placed in the youth national team pool from U16-U18.
Chapman has served the last two years as the U17 Girls' Assistant Soccer Coach at the Shattuck-St. Mary's Soccer Center of Excellence, one of the top soccer development academies in the country. She also gained valuable coaching experience serving as the Assistant Camp Director of the University of Florida soccer camps from 2008-12. Additionally, she served as a student-assistant coach for the Gators and worked as the head coach of a U15 girls State Cup club in Florida. She has received her NSCAA National and Advanced National Diplomas in coaching.
Ryan's staff returns 19 letterwinners from last season's America East regular season championship team. Fifteen of those 19 returners started at least one match for Ryan's club a year ago. The Seawolves open the 2014 season at Rutgers on Aug. 22.

Turning Cooler...
After temperatures soared into the lower 90s locations such as Falfurrias (Brooks County), Hebbronville (Jim Hogg County), and Edinburg (Hidalgo County) on the afternoon of the 29th, it seems hard to believe that these same areas may see a light freeze by daybreak on Friday, February 1st. However, a front will sweep across all of Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley on Thursday, allowing high pressure to rapidly build southeast across the entire state of Texas by Thursday night and Friday. As the high settles in, winds will become calm to light. Under starry skies, temperatures will plummet overnight, likely falling to between 35 and 40 area wide, with normally colder locations from Jim Hogg to Kenedy County falling to or just below 32 for a few hours early Friday morning. Residents of these areas may want to consider taking precautions to protect any sensitive plants sometime on Thursday.
...And Much Drier
After the front passes on Thursday, winds will rapidly increase from the northwest to 25 to 30 mph with higher gusts. Some of the driest air of this winter, with a source region in northwest Canada, will bring afternoon relative humidity values down to perhaps 10 percent or less across much of the Valley north and west of a McAllen through Raymondville line. Unlike recent weather fronts, which were accompanied by raw chill, low clouds, and light rain or drizzle, skies will become crystal clear behind this one. In all areas, the low humidity combined with strong gusty winds will create a high threat for explosive wild fire growth. Most counties remain in a burn ban (below). Needless to say, all residents of the Rio Grande Valley should remain vigilant on January 31st.
While Drought Continues
The latest Texas drought monitor shows that the recent rainfall since January 15th put a slight dent into the moderate drought area, particularly along and near the coast, including Brownsville and Harlingen. However, the upcoming windy, dry conditions may erase some of the positive impacts from the rain, especially if longer range forecasts for the next two weeks verify. Stay tuned.

I know she gives us so much to choose from, but I'm surprised our beloved PM's latest mangling of the English language has, so far, escaped attention.
In the big finale of her waffling Australia Day speech, she told the assembled newly naturalised Australians that "Australia is your country now, and you'll never want for another".
Now I assume she was trying to tell them that they'd never 'desire' or 'need' another country, but when the word 'want' is followed by 'for', it takes its correct and original meaning - which is 'lack'.
So she told them they would never lack another country, which I suspect is rather than opposite meaning from the one she intended.
Of course, were she to be re-elected, those lucky folk might well be glad there they'll never have any lack of other countries to go to.
Sun 27 Jan 13 (06:53pm)
yay! Tim on TV! Give that Andrew Leigh heaps - please. Whenever he is on Sky he talks such rubbish and rarely gets called on it.
Sun 27 Jan 13 (07:10pm)
Mon 28 Jan 13 (09:12am)
So when is there someone on Sky news that doesn't talk rubbish ? Sky news is as bad as Ch 7, Ch 9, Ch 10, SBS or ABC.
No wonder they call it the idiot box.
I don't have Pay TV, Tim. Will I be able to watch it on the interweb later?
Modern tennis is about as boring as waiting for the Bunyip to update his blog, or reading the comments at Bolt's.
Sun 27 Jan 13 (07:29pm)
Mon 28 Jan 13 (08:58am)
That's my problem too. I actually cancelled my Austar subscription because of Sky News. Could not see why I should pay extra when I could get the same left-wing bias for free from the ABC. Sky News also seemed to lag well behind the free-to-air channels on the latest news, which is a fatal flaw in any subscriber news service.
Mon 28 Jan 13 (08:45pm)
Could not see why I should pay extra when I could get the same left-wing bias for free from the ABC.
You are not getting it free from the ABC either, they don't even give you the option to subscribe, they just take your money. And there's nothing any of us can do about it.
No freeview?

Tell The Right Honourable Member for Fraser that pin stripe suits are sooo last century.
Sun 27 Jan 13 (08:27pm)
Great stuff Tim!
A few simple facts about emissions etc, spoken with clarity and conviction leaves the others no where to go.
And to think Stan Grant was going to be the final straw for me switching off Sky for good…
More please!!
Sun 27 Jan 13 (09:12pm)
Trying to find it on line Tim. Is it available? Don't have cable and barely use the TV at all anyway. Maybe I should but I just can't find much that holds my interest for more than 10 minutes. A few news/current affairs programs and then some sport.. that's about it. Nothing (including the above) that I could say I watch with any regularity. Books, music, blogs etc.. better fodder I think.
Sun 27 Jan 13 (09:46pm)
Mon 28 Jan 13 (12:11am)
Don't believe you can get the HQ stuff without paying. Maybe in five years. We'll have to wait Puzzled. Pretzel?
Hey Tim,
The tennis was sooooo good!
Braveheart went pea-heart in the second, developed a chronic case of losers limp and MacWimped it.
Aye, it warmed the cockles 'a mae sporrrran!

Toad, sadly I have to agree with you, despite the fair share of Picto-Celtic blood in me. P***poor show, Muzza.
Chris is a great presenter and interviewer. His show tonight was one of his best. And you did well too Tim. How that intelligent and wise Casandra ever got involved with the Labor Socialist Wreckers is beyond me. From the first time I saw her on Sky News, on The Bolt Report and reading her columns in The Australian, she has impressed.
Sure she is a lefty at heart, sadly, but has a good deal of commonsense

Mon 28 Jan 13 (08:43am)
Sure she is a lefty at heart, sadly, but has a good deal of commonsense
Therein lies the problem, yes she does make sense some of the time, the rest of the time it's just mindless, poorly thought out handwringing crap.
Tim, as one of those unfortunate enough to have Andrew Leigh as their local member, could you please ask him for me why he sees the need to spend his life worrying about such critical things such as this, when petrol in his electorate is around 20 cents a litre more expensive than anywhere else?
I have never seen him around the electorate, received any sort of corro from him, nothing. The only time he appears on local TV is as a bobble-headed idiot standing behind Juliar nodding madly at everything she says.
Mon 28 Jan 13 (08:32am)
All you need to do now is appear on Al Jazeera and you'll become a gigastar like Joe Hildebrand. (Two years ago - Tim)
Mon 28 Jan 13 (09:58am)
The only thing we really hate while watching the tennis, is having to listen to the two commentators, who spend the majority of the time talking about their own decisions and beliefs, the past and themselves.
Mon 28 Jan 13 (10:10am)
Missed it. Any chance of a link?
Mon 28 Jan 13 (10:43am)
Your spot was good, but unfortunately in waiting for it I had to sit through that pompendous (pompous and horrendous) leftoid who
- complained that they can't run the country without all-time peak corporate tax collections of the 2007 bubble and
- bitched that Mr Rabbit didn't outline the minutiae of every policy and saving measure during a 2 hour speech.
Anyhow, during the brief periods I didn't have my fingers in my ears I swear I heard him claim that Nova Peris will be the first Aboriginal in parliament! Did he really say that?
Mon 28 Jan 13 (12:46pm)
It appears the blogger has become used to the superstar status. I didn't like the dark shirt.

Dallas, meet Tesho Akindele
Here's a Q&A with FC Dallas first-round pick Tesho Akindele right after he went sixth overall in Thursday's 2014 MLS Super Draft:
What do you bring to the table?
Akindele: I think I'm a goal scorer and any team can use a goal scorer. I think I can provide assists and I'm also willing to do the work defensively. A lot of players that can score goals aren't willing to do the defensive work, but I think I'm willing to do the work on offense and defense.
Do you know Oscar Pareja from your time in Denver?
Akindele: Yeah, I definitely ran into him a few times because he coached in Denver and I was there. I'm excited to play under him because he came to Denver and did really well with the team here. I'm sure he's going to do really well there in Dallas and glad I'm going to be a part of that.
Your stock rose immensely after the combine. Talk about that.
Akindele: Yeah, it's almost surreal. Before the combine, nobody was talking about me as getting pick, definitely not in the first round, probably not until like fourth or fifth round. It just shows you how important every game is. I just had a couple of good games. We played three games, I played well and my stock just rose. It just rose by a lot just because of those games. It's just a surreal feeling, to have moved up so much. I'm just so excited for this opportunity.
What number do you prefer to wear?
Akindele: I'll wear whatever they give me. I like No. 13. I usually wear 13 or 14, but if those numbers are taken, I'll take whatever's left over. It's not that big a deal to me.
How do you feel about a jump in the level of competition with your move to MLS?
Akindele: I think everybody is facing a difference in level. Even the Division I guys are playing better opponents. I think in DII, the level wasn't bad. The level was good in DII. We played good teams. I think I showed that at the combine, that I wasn't too out of place. So, it's definitely going to be harder to play in MLS than it was to play in Division II but all of us rookies are going to be going through the same thing.
How would you describe yourself as a player?
Akindele: I'd definitely say I'm more of a speed guy and with my size, I can play target forward but I feel most of my career I've been a speed guy that can get behind defense and get around them on the wings with my speed.
What formation(s) are you most comfortable in?
Akindele: We played all kinds of things over here at School of the Mines, 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 and I played on the wing and up top in both of those formations, so I think I'll be ready for whatever they give me in Dallas.
Have you finished your Engineering degree?
Akindele: Not graduated, I have one year left on my degree but I withdrew from school. I can be an engineer when I'm 55-years-old but my soccer career has an expiration date, so I want to get the most out of it that I can.
Did you have any idea you'd end up with FCD?
Akindele: I had an interview with Dallas and they made it seem like they liked me, but I had no idea that I would get picked this early. I was definitely thinking maybe somebody would pick me up in the second round, at the end of the first round I might get picked up, but I had no idea sixth pick. Nobody seemed that interested in me. They told me they tried to keep it secret that they were going to get me that early. I'm glad they did that and just happy now, happy it's over.
Do you feel like you can contribute immediately?
Akindele: That's got to be my goal. That's my goal definitely, is to contribute right away. I'm going to work hard. I know the level is different. I'm going to have to get used to the difference in speed of play and the smarts of the players, but overall I think I will be able to come in and contribute right away.
Do you know anybody currently on the FC Dallas roster?
Akindele: No, I don't personally know anybody on the team.
How do you think playing in the altitude might help you adjust to the conditioning side of MLS a bit quicker?
Akindele: I think it might help me right away, but Dallas is a lot hotter and more humid than Colorado. That's going to be hard to get used to but I think I'll be in good shape because of my altitude training for sure.
Has it hit you yet that you got drafted?
Akindele: It's definitely not going to hit me until tonight because I'm talking to you guys. I have everybody texting me right now, so just have a lot of business to take care of right now. But once I'm able to relax, it's just really going to hit me, how early I got picked and just how awesome this opportunity actually is.
Did you call your parents first?
Akindele: Actually, my mom and dad are over here, at my house. I'm at my college house and they're over here with me. They were screaming right away. I had a couple of my teammates from the School of the Mines, they were all screaming for me. I was with them. They just said they're proud of me and I just need to keep working hard and stay humble.
Where does your persistence and work ethic come from?
Akindele: Yeah, it definitely comes from my parents. They never let me just give up. If times were tough in school or in sports or just in any situation in life, they made sure that I just stuck to it. That was instilled in me as a kid and I still carry those values with me today.
You turned down the chance to play for the Rapids Academy team to remain with your club team. Talk about that.
Akindele: Well, I was successful with my club team. I think we were playing good soccer and the academy had just started when I was like 17. So I would have only played with the Rapids two years and I had already been with my team for five years, so I felt there was really no need to change teams at that point.
What other sports do you follow?
Akindele: Not too much of a hockey fan, I follow a little bit of basketball but that's about it. I follow all kinds of soccer.
Are there any FCD players you're especially looking forward to playing alongside?
Akindele: I'm just looking forward to playing with all of them. They're all professional players and I'm just moving into their world, so I'm excited to see what they can teach me about becoming a better player and how they all help me out.
Who is your favorite club to follow?
Akindele: It's got to be Arsenal for sure, hands down.

United and Liverpool fight for Song: According to the Mirror, Manchester United and Liverpool are set for a summer scrap over the signing of Barcelona midfielder Alex Song. The Cameroonian is set to leave the Camp Nou, two years after making the switch to the Spanish giants from Arsenal, and could be keen on a return to England's top flight. United and Liverpool are said to be keen on acquiring the 26-year-old's services and would be willing to offer the Blaugrana £8 million. Song is reportedly happy to join either club, revealing back in March that, if he were to leave Barca, his favoured destination would be the Premier League. He said: "If I leave Barcelona it will be to return to the Premier League. I will return to England one day, that's for sure."
Paper round's view: Song has found playing time hard to come by since his move to Barcelona in 2012, though that was always going to be the case with the likes of Andres Iniesta, Xavi, Sergio Busquets and Cesc Fabregas all vying for midfield spots. However, the Cameroonian star was a key figure for the Gunners during his six-year stint in the Premier League, so it's not too unsurprising that he would be keen on a return to England. Strong, quick, with good feet and an eye for goal, Song would be a perfect fit for United, who have struggled in the central midfield position all season following the Marouane Fellaini panic-buy. Liverpool, on the other hand, have looked very strong in midfield this campaign, but £8 million for a proven Premier League player could just be too good to turn down.

Sagna to leave Arsenal: Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is expecting full-back Bacary Sagna to leave the Emirates Stadium this summer, according to the Sun. The French defender's contract is due to expire when the current season comes to an end, and it is reported that the 31-year-old would be receptive to signing a new deal – but only if the Gunners drastically increase his wages. Wenger has sanctioned improved terms for the right-sided defender in an attempt to keep him on their books – increasing his pay cheque to £75,000-per-week – but is not willing to meet Sagna's demands. The Frenchman, who joined Arsenal in 2007, is reportedly holding out for a whopping £100,000-per-week.
Paper round's view: On numerous occasions in the past we have seen players threaten to quit a club, only to sign a bumper new deal in the coming weeks or months. But don't expect that here. Sagna has been a loyal servant to Wenger and Arsenal, and is being rewarded with an offer that would see his wages rise. The defender is also being offered a two-year contract, despite being 31. It sounds like a pretty good deal to us, but if he's not willing to accept it that you can bet your bottom dollar that Wenger will allow him to leave north London in the summer – albeit quite reluctantly.

Inter want cut-price Torres: According to a report in the Daily Mail, Fernando Torres could be set to leave Chelsea this summer and join Italian giants Inter Milan. The £50-million striker is a target of the Nerazzurri, who would be willing to end the Spaniard's Stamford Bridge nightmare. However, the Serie A club would only be willing to secure a deal that would see the 31-year-old join on loan for next season before wrapping up a £10 million deal next year. The Mail report that Torres' wage demands could be a potential stumbling block, with Inter prepared to offer £3 million per year, which would fall well short of his current Chelsea wage.
Paper round's view: It finally looks like Fernando Torres could be leaving Chelsea. The striker's time at Stamford Bridge has been nothing short of a disaster, and he could probably do with a fresh start at another club in another league. 'El Nino' was a tremendous success in three of his four years at Liverpool, but a huge dip in form and a £50 million price tag following his move to Chelsea appeared to affect the Spaniard. He's not been the same player since, and would surely be keen on ending his Stamford Bridge hell. Whether Chelsea would allow Torres to first leave on loan, and then for £10 million – a fifth of what they paid for him just three years ago – remains to be seen, but Jose Mourinho is keen on a new striker so may cut his losses and let the striker join Inter.

Liverpool and Chelsea keen on Fenerbahce's Erkin: Liverpool and Chelsea are set for battle to sign Fenerbahce's Caner Erkin, according to the Metro. The utility man, whose contract is due to expire at the Istanbul club, has reportedly already received a number of offers, which includes the Premier League duo as well as clubs in La Liga and Serie A. However, Erkin's agent has revealed that his client would prefer to stay with his current club, though he would consider a switch to England. "I don't usually like giving names but it is great for the players confidence that clubs like Liverpool and Chelsea are showing an interest," Erkin's agent Batur Altiparmak said. "However, a few clubs have made offers for Caner, two clubs from England have made a bid and he has also received offers from Spain and Italy. We have received offers but have not held direct talks with any club yet, first of all we are going to listen to Fenerbahce's offer. We have not received an offer from Inter. Reports that we have held talks are a complete fabrication."
Paper round's view: Just two days ago, Italian news agency Sport Mediaset reported that Inter had beaten Roma to the signing of the Turkish defender/midfielder, claiming that the Nerazzurri had agreed a pre-contractual agreement with Erkin and would sign him on a Bosman-free in the summer. But that all now appears to be untrue, and the 25-year-old could well make a move to the Premier League. Erkin has enjoyed a spending season in the Fenerbahce team, helping them to another league title, and has unsurprisingly attracted attention from around Europe. Erkin's love for Fener may see him sign a bumper new deal, but if his demands are not met then expect him to light up one of the continents more-prestigious leagues next season.

March 23rd, 2013
Prime Ministers Netanyahu and Erdogan are to be commended for seizing the moment of President Obama's visit to the region to repair historic bilateral ties that for decades have enhanced their nations' security and provided a critical bridge between Muslim-majority countries and the world's only Jewish-majority state.

Regional Comprehensive Approach
May 1st, 2012
J Street supports the US Administration's pursuit of a regional, comprehensive approach to resolving the Arab-Israeli conflicts and welcomes the Arab Peace Initiative as part of a basis for achieving peace and securing Israel. This would guarantee the full recognition of Israel and normal relations between Israel and the Arab and Muslim countries, including all 22 Arab states and 57 Muslim states. Read More...

Community: The Fastest and Youngest Caniacs
Regan Smith
|Doug Warf
|Index | Archive
Though I have never seen him physically run, I dub Regan Smith the fastest Caniac I know of. Regan drives in NASCAR's Sprint Cup series for Dale Earnhardt Incorporated and spends most of his week driving at speeds over 150 MPH. Though some of you may try that on the beltline after work, I think he wins the title.
As you may have heard, Regan will be wearing a custom Carolina Hurricanes themed helmet in this weekend's Bank of America 500 in
What you may not know is that the idea came directly from Regan. Regan was a big hockey fan growing up in
Usually teams will have to relentlessly bother a NASCAR driver to show support like this…but not Regan. He and the folks from DEI contacted us about a month ago about the idea of wearing a Hurricanes themed helmet in a race near opening night. Regan wanted to help create a buzz for the start of the Hurricanes season while showing his support.
As a true sign of being a great guy, Regan also suggested that he donate the helmet for auction with proceeds going to benefit our Kids 'N Community Foundation.
It is/was hard to pull my allegiance from Tony "Smoke" Stewart…but I knew I was a Regan fan this weekend after I was very upset that NASCAR awarded Stewart with a very controversial win over Smith. See this article if you don't know what I am talking about
Also, Saturday gave me a great opportunity to meet some of our youngest Caniacs at
One kid that stood out was young Jack. I spoke with Jack's father, who explained he had taken him to a game at just over 2 years of age with no expectation of staying long. Jack surprised him as he loved hockey and was full of questions. Now, each morning, they get to look at the N&O together to go over last night's hockey scores. While Jack was sliding around on the Center Ice exhibit we asked him who he was pretending to be. A simple answer of "Eric Staal…he scores goals" was enough for me to know that this 3-year-old was already a Caniac. Yes, I am sure there are "younger" Caniacs, but it was great to see a kid his age having so much fun while being so excited about the Canes.
Other Stuff
I will follow-up with more information after I contact all of our fall grant applicants, but we had a great Kids 'N Community Foundation board meeting Tuesday that awarded a lot of money to deserving local children's charities.
Also, today (Wednesday) was our We Love the Hurricanes Luncheon. Thanks to the Greater Raleigh Sports Council and RBC Bank for providing the Kids 'N Community Foundation with a $15,000 check as a result of this luncheon. Thanks to Alison Barnwell and her staff for a great event today.

Medications And Contraceptives
Health care will cost a lot after you leave Barnard. Be sure you have an adequate supply of any chronic medications that you take before you leave Barnard. If you are taking hormonal contraceptives, make an appointment with the Health Service to pick up a prescription prior to graduation.
Medical Records
Student Health Services will keep your medical records for seven years, after which they will be destroyed. We will release information only when you request it, and your written signature is required. A $10 fee is charged for providing medical records. We will mail them to you or you may pick them up from the Health Service.
You will need records of your immunizations if you are planning to attend graduate school. Please come to the Health Service to pick yours up! Be careful to safeguard these records when you receive them. After graduation there is a $5 charge for providing immunization records, with a $5 surcharge for faxing. They may of course also be mailed, or you may pick them up.
Health Insurance
Make sure you're covered!! Even a minor accident, illness, or emergency room visit can turn into a financial nightmare if you are uninsured. An appendectomy or broken arm can easily cost you several thousand dollars. At the very least, you should consider excess or hospitalization insurance. [Major medical insurance, which covers outpatient costs, doctor's fees in the hospital, etc. can be a separate option.] If you have no insurance, you may be refused treatment by the doctor or hospital of your choice. Here are some tips for thinking about, and obtaining, medical insurance.
- Check with your family about whether you will continue to be covered on their policy after graduation. Coverage varies enormously, so you must determine this individually.
- Group insurance is almost always cheaper than individual plans. Barnard graduates are eligible to join the Columbia Alumni Association, which offers different types of insurance: catastrophic major medical, term life, and long-term disability. Please note that basic medical and regular major medical insurance are not offered, but recommendations can be made. For more information, contact the Columbia Alumni Association at 212-870-2535. You may also find that some other group of which you are or may become a member offers medical insurance as well. One example is NAFE (National Association of Female Executives).
- Be aware that a new insurance plan may refuse to cover "pre-existing conditions", often defined as any illness or condition for which you have visited a doctor during the past year. Pre-existing conditions are most likely to be invoked when there is a gap, even a day, in your current insurance and a new plan.
- Information released to an insurance company, including a diagnosis provided for reimbursement, is not bound by the same standards of confidentiality that protect your medical records in a hospital or doctor's office.
- Medical insurance is a benefit that is not automatic with employment, particularly part-time work. A minimum of 20 hours/week or more is often necessary to obtain health benefits. You must ask what a particular company's policy is, and what coverage its plan provides. You should be aware that many policies have minimal or no coverage for dental, eye, prescription drugs, or mental health conditions. Ask for specifics!! Most policies also require you to pay some portion of your costs yourself.
- If you need to find an individual plan yourself...consider an insurance agent. In general, the only fee is the commission on your policy. You might also explore an individual policy with your family's company. HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) options are usually much cheaper than plans that pay any doctor you might want to see, but they require you to visit specific doctors who have enrolled with them, and may place other restrictions on where and how you obtain care. You can ask to see a list of the doctors with whom they contract.
- Ask for specifics on "affordable" health care plans with rates that seem too good to be true. These may be networks that have negotiated discounted fees with specific providers (good), but do not actually reimburse you for what you may (not what you expect to) incur. This is certainly an option under certain circumstances, but be sure you understand what you will get for what you pay.
We hope some of these tips may help you stretch your health care dollar. The Student Health Service will be open in the summer for administrative questions. Please call us at 212-854-2091 if we can help answer any of your questions.
We wish you good health and much joy as you leave Barnard.

The funeral industry did not emerge until after the Civil War when the process of embalming became widespread and more accepted by the general public. Before the mid-19th century, the dead were often displayed in the family home in the "parlor," hence the term "funeral parlor" that is still in use today.
While various methods had been used to prolong decomposition before the 1860s, embalming was the chosen method to preserve the bodies of dead Civil War soldiers before they were sent home. After President Lincoln's body was preserved through embalming and toured the nation on a funeral train, the public began to accept the idea. As embalming spread, so did the number of funeral homes.
New Ideas
As embalming became standard practice in the late 19th century, bereaved families began to see value in the entire "package" of a modern funeral. The preserved body could be presented in a neutral setting where the family could receive guests and hold a formal service. Private viewing in the home eventually disappeared in favor of using a funeral home.
Family Business
Instead of traveling to the home to preserve a dead body, undertakers now transported the body from the home or hospital to a central place of business. Many undertakers lived in the funeral home and their families often assisted in running the business.
As more funeral homes were established in the 20th century, professional organizations emerged to serve the funeral industry. Formal training provided undertakers with the skills needed to perform their duties and to run a business. Florists, casket manufacturers and life insurance agencies developed alongside the funeral home industry.
Ethnic groups usually preferred funeral homes run by members of their own community. After immigration laws were relaxed in the 1960s, many newly founded minority communities had not yet established their own funeral homes. Where an ethnic undertaker was not available, funeral homes began providing services tailored for specific communities, such as Vietnamese, Latino and Eastern European groups. As a result, funeral homes began performing services in a variety of non-Western religious traditions, like Hinduism and Buddhism.
As cremation became more accepted during the late 20th century, funeral homes feared their services would soon be obsolete. There would be no need for embalming or a viewing of the body in the event of cremation. With the future of their industry at stake, many funeral homes constructed their own cremation facilities or contracted with existing crematoriums. Undertakers also established new customs at the funeral home, such as viewing an embalmed body before cremation.
Corporate Model
There is a growing trend where large corporations are purchasing small, independent funeral homes to create a "big business" approach to funeral services. While the majority of funeral homes are still independently family-owned businesses, the corporate model will continue to spread in the 21st century.

Many people today consider curbside recycling the quintessential model of eco-stewardship, yet this waste-management system in the United States was in many ways a pollutersponsored initiative that allowed corporations to expand their productive capacity without fixing fundamental flaws in their packaging technology. For the soft-drink, brewing, and canning industries, the promise of recycling became a powerful weapon for combating mandatory deposit bills and other source-reduction measures in the 1970s and 1980s. In examining the nexus of business, envirotech, and political history, this article explores how American corporations enrolled government agencies to construct resource reclamation systems in the United States that became models for waste management programs in municipalities around the world.

The E-Stopp® push button emergency brake is the perfect e-brake for custom vehicles and winner of the 2012 NSRA new safety product of the year. It not only frees up room on the chassis and in the cab but doubles as an anti-theft device when the button is hidden. It works with any kind of brake system that can accept an e-brake cable and can mount anywhere on the chassis that you have room. The kit comes with the actuator, the control box w/ switch and wire connectors all at an affordable price.
The system is controlled by a micro computer that regulates the amount of pull. The E-Stopp will only pull up to 600 pounds before it locks down on itself. The button has a detachable head for easy install and has both visual and audible recognition. Also included is our patented ignition safety feature that renders the brake inoperable while the ignition is on. We recently added another ground sync wire that can be hooked up to your parking symbol light on your dash board.
The E-Stopp can be used as a theft deterrent by either hiding the button under the dash or in the glove compartment or by installing a kill switch. Basically, if someone doesn't know how to unlock your rear end, they will have a difficult time stealing your vehicle.
We just released our new extra secure button option that looks like a standard cigarette lighter. It is a separate option but can adapt right into the existing button plug.
With constant horror stories of custom vehicles being stolen during car shows, any extra defense is a necessity. So why not have that extra peace of mind built right into a functional part of your vehicle.

Tobin's Q and Stock Market Performance
Vichet Sum
University of Maryland Eastern Shore - School of Business and Technology
July 14, 2013
This study examines if the change in aggregate Tobin's q ratio (∆TBQ) can dynamically forecast return on the S&P 500 (SP). The VAR results from analyzing quarterly data from 1951Q4 to 2012Q4 show that the response of SP to ∆TBQ shock becomes significantly positive immediately. The Granger-causality test results reveal that ∆TBQ Granger-causes SP; the reverse causality is not evident. The variance decomposition results reveal that ∆TBQ forecasts about 70% of SP at the two-quarter to eight-quarter horizons.

Not at all. I felt burnt out doing 2 muscle groups a day and spending 1.5 hrs in the gym. My workouts are spaced out enough to where my sore muscles have plenty of rest in between intense workouts. Everyone I've heard of using this routine says it'll only work if you follow it to a T. For me, I think I'm going to do a few more sets than recommended. My Bi's/tri's are sore today, more than when I did 14+ sets per. I will most likely switch a few exercises around and add a set or two. I didn't like the alt. dumbbell curls and I want to do weighted dips like I always have in the past. All in all, so far a pretty stellar workout.

-I felt sick even before I entered the gym. I got a head cold. Last night I had a 12 hr. night shift, got home at 6 am, slept till 3pm, went to gym at 5pm. Not good. The weights felt twice as heavy than before. The main goal of Max-OT is to do the reps all by yourself until postive muscle failure. I needed alittle extra help because I felt like shit.

-New max weights/reps for lat pulldowns, barbell rows, cable rows, and barbell shrugs. I never tried to go that heavy before. For cable rows, I used a med. grip bar for first two sets, then my final set was with a close grip. I usually do 12-15 pullups per set, but this time I decided to have my chest touch the bar on every one. That was a big difference and limited me to only 8 reps per set. For barbell shrugs, I wanted a higher rep range than 4-6 because I don't think my traps would get the proper stimulation they deserve. Very Happy with the progress thus far. :cool:

From what it looks like, you're doing 3 work sets?
I find it hard to even do two work sets. Once I'm warmed up and I've done my weight acclimation sets, I give it my all on the work set for 4-6 and I'm done. When I try it again, I am so wasted that my next set is 2-3 reps fewer than the first one. Even when I've tried lowering the weight, the second set was always so dismal because I blew my wad on that first set so hard.
Are you training to failure on that first set? Max-OT talks about a muscle memory where your muscles remember the last set from the last workout. That's why he doesn't recommend a lighter pump set because the body remembers that last set. I'm just wondering if those two or three extra sets if necessary.

I definately hit positive muscle failure on every set. After 3 minutes I'm back in the fight. Remember, if you've seen my previous journal, I'm used to a very high volume with alot of weight. I never go down in weight from set to set, it's against my religion. Maybe your body needs 5 minutes between sets...Trust me, when I put up 335-345 for 5 solid reps on my own, I'm completely wiped out until I recharge the ol' battery for at least 3 minutes. Yes I do the long drawn out warmup before I begin. If I didn't, there would be no way in hell I could start with 315! My muscles are used to going very heavy and I feel great after 3-4 minutes. Just train your muscles to handle more volume. Never go down in weight!

-Went up in everything from last week. I'm pretty impressed with myself because I never really worked my legs before last week. I beat my friends who have always lifted legs. After legs, I hit my abs. If I have time, I'll do them every other day. Again, Max-OT wants 4-6 reps, but legs deserve more in my opinion.

-Last week and my first set of this week my military press was off (form). I was looking up for the whole repitition which was why I wasn't doing good. This time, after the bar passed below my chin, I pressed lokking up only until it came just above my head. After that, I levelled my head back straight and pressed the bar directly above my head. That's what I wasn't doing last week. Last week the bar was too far forward! I hit postive failure on each set. That's why I don't have a spotter anymore. Sweet workout today, next week I'm going to go up again because the rear laterals were still too easy.

-Bench remained about the same, but I felt stronger. I probably could've went a little heavier, but I wanted to hit at least 5 on my own. Inclines went up from last week as well as declines. My weighted dips were the biggest improvement. I still could've went even heavier. I'm good at dips. Definately a win in my book because of the strength I felt. I also did my warmups a little different. I did the 135 X 12 (slow), 135 X 10 (fast), 225 X 4, 275 X 1, 295 X 1. I think I was stronger on my second set than my first because I was better warmed up. Next time I will do 275 X 3 for a better weight acclimation set.

Cities in the French-speaking world share not only a language, but also values and projects. Paris is deeply committed to its active role in this living, fertile network focused on real benefits for all its members.
In 1956, Paris and Rome signed an exclusive twinning agreement which marked the start of a special relationship. Fifty years later, the two cities have never been as close.
Paris enters into friendship and cooperation agreements based on exchanges to come up with solutions to the major challenges facing large cities. It does so with one goal in mind: to make the lessons learned from these agreements benefit Parisians directly.
As an active member of city networks, Paris has two goals: being available for others, and benefiting from experience gained elsewhere.
Cooperation with Mediterranean cities has gathered speed over the last few years. Urban development, culture, the environment: ambitious, technical projects developed with different cities.
A tailor-made tool for solidarity between cities, decentralised cooperation enables Paris to share its expertise and skills with other cities around the world.
The City of Paris offers each year the "Paris Co-développement Sud" label. This request for proposals is open to associations based in Paris whose members are migrants or work regularly with Parisians of foreign origin.

The Needle in the Ball Pit
Netlore Archive: Latest version of a hoary playground myth has a child dying from contact with a heroin-contaminated hypodermic needle in a fast-food restaurant ball pit.
Description: Email hoax / Urban legend
Circulating since: Nov. 1999
Status: False (see details below)
Email contributed by N. Brown, Nov. 3, 1999:
Hi, My name is Lauren Archer, my son Kevin and I lived in Sugarland, TX.
On October 2cd, 1994 I took my only son to McDonald's for his 3rd birthday. After he finished lunch, I allowed him to play in the ball pit. When he started whining later on, I asked him what was wrong, he pointed to the back of his pull-up and simply said "Mommy, it hurts."
But I couldn't find anything wrong with him at that time. I bathed him when we got home, and it was at that point when I found a welt on his left buttock. Upon investigating, it seemed as if there was something like a splinter under the welt. I made an appointment to have it taken out the next day, but soon he started vomiting and shaking, then his eyes rolled back into his head. From there, we went to the emergency room. He died later that night. It turned out that the welt on his buttock was the tip of a hypodermic needle that had broken off inside.
The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died from heroine overdose. The next week, the police removed the balls from the ball pit and lo and behold. There was rotten food, several hypodermic needles: some full; some used; knives, half-eaten candy, diapers, feces, and the stench of urine.
If a child is not safe in a child's play area then where? You can find the article on Kevin Archer in the October 10, 1994 issue of the Houston Chronicle.
Please forward this to all loving mothers!
Update: The specimen above is the earliest version of this text I received (Nov. 1999). In it, the needle-in-ball-pit incident is alleged to have occurred in Sugarland, Texas. Later variants specify the location as Midland (presumable in Texas) or "Midrand" (presumably a misspelling of "Midland").
Latter-day variants also list Discovery Zone and Chuck E. Cheese restaurant playgrounds as dangerous places for children to play unattended.
Analysis: Experience has taught me that as soon as I've debunked this unsubstantiated text I'll start getting emails from folks informing me that all sorts of nasty and potentially dangerous objects really do turn up in fast food restaurant play areas, particularly ball pits. So let me say at the outset that, yes, that is true things like hypodermic needles can and do end up in playground ball pits. An incident like the one described above could conceivably happen. And parents should be discriminating when deciding where to let their kids play.
But this incident didn't happen.
So far as we know, Kevin Archer never existed, let alone died as the result of a "heroine" [sic] overdose after playing in a McDonald's ball pit. No such news story ever appeared in the Houston Chronicle (or the "Midrand Chronicle" or the "Midland Chronicle," neither of which actually exists).
See 1998's "Snakes in the Ball Pit" for the online progenitor of this hoax/legend. The two texts, both false, are strikingly similar. It's gruesome, I know, but people love to spread tall tales about children being injured or killed in places normally regarded by adults as "safe for kids." These stories about fast food restaurant playgrounds are variations on older legends about amusement parks (e.g., snakes in merry-go-round horses and razor blades in water slides). All are examples of cautionary tales warning parents to be vigilant. All are versions of every parent's worst nightmare.
McDonald's has responded to the current rumor with the following statement:
We have thoroughly investigated this rumor and it is absolutely not true. There have been no such incidents ever reported at any McDonald's. In addition, there has never been an article in any newspaper regarding this rumor.
Unfortunately these types of rumors bring unnecessary concerns for our customers. It is important to know that safety is a top priority at McDonald's, especially as it relates to children. We take many precautions to ensure our Playlands are safe.
As for the Houston Chronicle, the paper has been fielding inquiries about the tall tale since November 1999. Here's its editorial statement:
The "Kevin Archer" email being circulated these days is a hoax. There is nothing to be found in the archives. No such article appeared in this or any other newspaper on Oct. 10, 1994, or any other date as no such or similar incident ever has occurred here or been reported by any news service or in any medical or legal records.
Chronicle writer David Galloway debunked it again in his January 9, 2000 column, "Hoax Writers' Technique."
In February 2000, a source at the Midland Reporter-Telegram told me that they, too, were continuing to receive inquiries about the version of the hoax set in that city. A Feb. 3, 2000 article in the paper confirmed, yet again, that it's false.
