The level of an RNA molecule (PCAT-14) expressed in prostate tumors is an indicator of whether the cancer is likely to spread, according to research published by Chris Maher and colleagues. Down-regulation of PCAT-14 is associated with a greater probability of metastatic progression, and this finding may help to determine the intensity of therapy in individual patients.

Foluso Ademuyiwa and her colleague Laura Beirut (Department of Psychiatry) are launching a major study in African-American women with breast cancer to learn whether their genetic risks are influenced by the same mutations that affect white women or are altogether different mutations. Such information may lead to new ways to prevent or treat breast cancer in African-American women. WU Record 7/29/16
David DeNardo, Andrea Wang-Gillam and their colleagues have shown that immunotherapy against pancreatic cancer can be effective when given in conjunction with focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitors, drugs that break up the fibrous tissue in these tumors. A phase 1 clinical trial to test the safety of FAK inhibitors in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer is underway. Nature Medicine 2016 Jul 4 | WU Record 7/5/16
Examining databases of proteins' 3-D shapes, a group led by Li Ding has identified more than 850 DNA mutations that appear to be linked to cancer. The information may expand the number of cancer patients who can benefit from existing drugs. Nature Genetics 2016 Jun 13 | WU Record 6/13/16
Tim Ley is being recognized for his pioneering research in cancer genomics. His studies have laid the groundwork for precision medicine in cancer, which targets treatment to a patient based on the genetic makeup of a tumor and how it responds to therapy. WU Record 5/18/16
To help improve access to cancer specialists for underinsured residents of north St. Louis County, Express Scripts, a leading pharmacy benefit management company, has donated $200,000 to Washington University to establish the Express Scripts North County Oncology Fund. Proceeds will provide greater access to specialty care and treatments, including clinical trials, at Christian Hospital on Dunn Road. WU Record 4/6/16
Ramaswamy Govindan has been named the Anheuser-Busch Endowed Chair in Medical Oncology. The Anheuser-Busch Foundation established the endowed chair in 2001. Govindan was honored for his innovative research, including in genomics, aimed at developing better lung cancer therapies and improving patient outcomes. WU Record 2/17/16
Li Ding and co-workers developed a software tool for finding a certain type of genetic error that has been consistently missed by cancer genome studies. These "complex indels" appear to cluster in important cancer genes more often than can be attributed to random chance. Patients may benefit when indels are found in genes that already have drugs designed to counter the effects of mutation. Nature Medicine 2016;22:97 | WU Record 1/5/16
Luis Batista and Grant Challen have received 2015 V Scholar Grants from the V Foundation for Cancer Research to support their work on telomerase RNA in dyskeratosis congenita and novel tumor supressors in chronic myeloid neoplasms. Chris Sturgeon and Steve Oh are recipients of 2016 Scholar Awards from the American Society of Hematology.
Tim Ley, Director of the Stem Cell Biology Section in the Division of Oncology, received a seven-year, $6.4 million Outstanding Investigator Award from the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health. The funding allows him to continue research aimed at understanding the mutations that initiate acute myeloid leukemia. WU Record 10/22/15
175 adults and 40 kids played in the 11th annual Rally for Cancer Care tennis tournament on August 29th at the Frontenac Tennis Club. This year's event raised over $30,000 for the Patient Care Fund. Highlights Video
Using genetic profiling to study bone marrow samples from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), Tim Ley and colleagues found that those whose cells still carried mutations 30 days after the initiation of chemotherapy were about three times more likely to relapse and die than patients whose bone marrow was cleared of these mutations. JAMA 2015;314:811 | WU Record 8/25/15
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has awarded Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis an "exceptional" rating, based on a rigorous review of Siteman's research programs. The rating is the highest possible by the NCI, the principal federal institute that funds cancer research. WU Record 7/7/15
Michael Tomasson and colleagues have designed a nanoparticle-based therapy that is effective in treating mice with multiple myeloma, a cancer of bone marrow immune cells. Targeted specifically to the malignant cells, these nanoparticles protect their therapeutic cargo from degradation in the bloodstream and greatly enhance drug delivery into the cancer cells. Mol Cancer Ther 2015;14:1286 | WU Record 5/18/15
Linda Eissenberg, John DiPersio, and their colleagues have developed a new approach to mitigate graft-versus-host disease. In a pilot study, they showed that donor T cells genetically modified to contain a suicide switch can be administered safely to patients with leukemia. The desired result of donor T cell administration is to produce a graft-versus-leukemia effect. If the donor T cells expand and cause severe graft-versus-host disease, however, they can be killed by turning on the suicide switch with ganciclovir. Mol Ther 2015;23:1110 | WU Record 5/11/15
Each year, medical students express appreciation for their teachers' efforts by selecting the course masters, lecturers, clerkship directors, attendings and residents who distinguished themselves most in educating students. Among this year's recipients of the Distinguished Service Teaching Awards are Scot Hickman of the Hematology Division and Jason Weber of the Oncology Division (Molecular Oncology Section). WU Record 12/11/14
Terrence Wong, a hematology-oncology fellow working in Dan Link's laboratory, found that mutations that accumulate randomly as a person ages can play a role in a fatal form of leukemia that develops after treatment for another cancer. This study, which was done in collaboration with colleagues in the Oncology Division and The Genome Institute at Washington University, challenges the view that cancer treatment in itself is a direct cause of therapy-related AML. Nature 2015;518:552 | WU Record 12/8/14
Analyzing blood samples from subjects enrolled in The Cancer Genome Atlas project, Li Ding and co-workers discovered that 5 percent of people over age 70 harbor mutations linked to leukemia and lymphoma. Since the incidence of these disorders is less than 0.1 percent among the elderly, additional research is needed to determine whether these mutations increase the risk of developing a hematologic malignancy. Nature Medicine 2014;20:1472 | WU Record 10/19/14
The American Society of Hematology (ASH) will honor Grover C. Bagby Jr., MD, and John F. DiPersio, MD, PhD, with 2014 Mentor Awards at the 56th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition in San Francisco for their sustained, outstanding commitment to the training and career development of early-career hematologists. ASH Press Release 7/22/14
Steve Oh is one of seven new Damon Runyon Clinical Investigators. The recipients of this prestigious three-year award are outstanding early career physician-scientists conducting patient-oriented cancer research at major research centers under the mentorship of the nation's leading scientists and clinicians. Each will receive $450,000 to support the development of his/her cancer research program. Dr. Oh aims to investigate the cellular abnormalities that underlie myeloproliferative neoplasms. Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation 6/23/14
Ramaswamy Govindan and collaborators in The Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network have discovered mutations in the RTK/RAS/RAF signaling pathway that are present in about 75% of patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung. The new findings may expand treatments for this disease, because drugs targeting some of these genetic changes already are available or are in clinical trials. Nature 2014;511:543 | WU Record 7/9/14
Jason Weber's laboratory has found that triple-negative breast cancer cells lacking the tumor suppressor proteins p53 and ARF turn on a JAK-dependent pathway involved in the innate immune response to viral infection. This antiviral response may create a local environment of inflammation that supports more aggressive tumors. The study suggests that some patients may benefit from JAK inhibitors, a class of anti-inflammatory drugs currently prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis. Cell Reports 2014;7:514 | WU Record 6/26/14
A laboratory within the Center for Human Immunology and Immunotherapy Programs (CHiiPs) will monitor changes in the immune system during clinical trials of new immunotherapies. The centerpiece of the laboratory, directed by Steve Oh, is a state-of-the-art instrument known as a time-of-flight mass cytometer that simultaneously can detect more than 50 different structures either on the cell surface or inside the cell. WU Record 4/17/14
The Journal of Biological Chemistry has recognized Ron Bose and his colleagues for their work describing the combined structure of two proteins (HER2 and HER3) that, when bound together, drive growth of many breast cancers. This work was chosen as JBC's best signal transduction article of 2013. J Biol Chem 2013;288:25254 | WU Record 3/27/14
Members of Stuart Kornfeld's laboratory have identified an unusual cause of the lysosomal storage disorder called mucolipidosis III. They found that a phosphotransferase, which is responsible for adding the targeting signal to lysosomal enzymes, seems to lack a mechanism that keeps it properly localized in the Golgi apparatus. PNAS 2014;111:3532 | WU Record 3/12/14
A new study by Li Ding and colleagues estimates that about 20% of women with ovarian cancer have inherited genetic mutations associated with increased risk, even though most of these women do not have strong family histories of the disease. The research is the first large-scale analysis of the combined contributions of inherited and acquired mutations in a major cancer type. Nature Communications 2014;5:3156 | WU Record 2/22/14
Lee Ratner's primary research interest focuses on retroviruses, including the human T-cell leukemia virus type 1, which causes a specific form of lymphoma, and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated with AIDS. His studies have been applied to developing novel therapeutic approaches for these viral infections. WU Record 11/7/13
Evan Sadler, chief of the Division of Hematology, has been elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, one of the highest honors medical scientists in the United States can receive. The Institute of Medicine serves as a national resource for independent analysis and recommendations on issues related to medicine, biomedical sciences and health. WU Record 10/21/13
Li Ding and co-workers have identified 127 repeatedly mutated genes that appear to drive the development and progression of a range of tumors. For example, a gene mutated in 25 percent of leukemia cases also was found in tumors of the breast, rectum, head and neck, kidney, lung, ovary and uterus. The discovery sets the stage for devising new diagnostic tools and more personalized cancer treatments. Nature 2013;502:333 | WU Record 10/16/13
Obi Griffith and his twin brother Malachi, working with colleagues at The Genome Institute, have created an online database that matches genes linked to cancer and other diseases with drugs that target those genes. The database includes more than 14,000 drug-gene interactions involving 2,600 genes and 6,300 drugs. Another 6,700 genes are in the database because they potentially could be targeted with future drugs. Nature Methods 2013;10:1209 | WU Record 10/13/13
Working in mouse models of breast cancer and breast tumor samples from patients, Greg Longmore and his colleagues showed that a protein on the surface of tumor cells, called DDR2, binds to collagen and activates a multistep pathway that encourages tumor cells to spread. This finding may explain why women with dense breasts are at increased risk for invasive breast cancer. Nature Cell Biology 2013;15:677 | WU Record 5/5/13
In research that one day could improve the success of stem cell transplants and chemotherapy, Dan Link and co-workers have found that distinct niches exist in bone marrow to nurture different types of blood stem cells. The new findings, in mice, suggest that it may be possible to therapeutically target support cells in a particular niche. Nature 2013;495:227 | WU Record 2/24/13

|How many moving draft parts could
your nervous system stand?
You must prepare for any permutation in the NFL draft. We've kicked around a short list of favorites. I think, based on what I've read and heard, that Dallas has a short list of four targeted players, guys who could vastly improve weak spots on the team. They are (and your mileage may vary) David DeCastro, Fletcher Cox, Michael Brockers and Mark Barron.
What to do if all four go ahead of Dallas? Say the following Cowboys nightmare scenario plays out:
7. Eagles, from Jaguars — Fletcher Cox
9. Panthers — Michael Brockers
11. Chiefs — David DeCastro
12. Seahawks — Mark Barron.
What then? You could grab a pass rusher, but what if Melvin Ingram has also gone? What if Ryan Tannehill and Trent Richardson have been picked, but teams are calling you for a receiver? Say Michael Floyd is generating interest.
What could you get for moving down? Using the somewhat suspect, but still relevant draft value chart as our guide:, here are some hypotheticals.
1. Sliding to 18 and letting San Diego replace Vincent Jackson would net you the Chargers 3rd rounder (78th overall).
2. Sliding to 22 and letting the Browns add another weapon for Colt McCoy could be accomplished by adding the Browns 3rd (67th overall) and swapping spots in the 2nd, with Dallas moving up to 37 and Cleveland dropping to 45.
3. Moving up from pick 45 to pick 31 at the bottom of the 1st, and adding New England's 5th rounder would cost the Cowboys 3rd rounder (81st overall).
4. Moving up from pick 45 to pick 33 at the top of the 2nd would cost Dallas its 4th and 5th rounders and perhaps more.
Let's say Dallas goes true Rube Goldberg, and makes the deal with Cleveland, dropping to 22, but also wants to jump up into the late 1st. If the team attains the Browns' 2nd at 37, moving up to 31, the second of New England's two 1st rounders, would cost Dallas' 4th, the 113th pick.
And what about tradeable assets? Could Anthony Spencer be flipped in a sign-and-trade? Perhaps, but two things would have to occur before such a move was even contemplated.
First, the team would have to draft his replacement.
Next, Spencer would have to sign his tender, putting him under contract.
Any team that trades for Spencer would not give up an early pick for a one-year rental. They would want to make a long-term commitment, which is also what Spencer wants. In a year that's lean in outside linebacker prospects, which 'backer might Dallas draft before they think of such a move?
What could Spencer bring in return?
Which teams would consider dealing for him?
The draft is only eight days away. Which of these options might come to reality?

September 28, 2006
Aiken County has three sex offenders registered as violent predators.
Investigators can't seem to find one of them.
59-year-old Tony Lacarter is wanted for failing to re-register with the sheriff's office.
South Carolina's sex offender laws have recently changed. All offenders are now required to register twice a year instead of only once.
But those labeled as a predator, like Lacarter, are supposed to check in four times a year.
He hasn't.
Just check Lacarter's listing on the South Carolina Sex Offender Registry, and it's easy to see why investigators want to get this man back under their watch.
Tony Lacarter has been convicted of first degree criminal sexual conduct three times: in 1985, 1991 and yet again in 1992.
The 1991 case involved a six-year-old girl.
"It's proven sex offenders have a high recidivism rate, and that's why registering is so important," says Capt. Charles Barranco with Aiken County.
This three-time convicted sexual predator's last address is a house he rented off Old Ridge Road in North Augusta, just across the street from a school bus stop.
It is the last address he gave authorities back in May...but once his neighbors and the property owner learned of his criminal history, they say he was evicted.
Now investigators believe Lacarter may have left the area.
"Lacarter doesn't have a residence," Capt. Barranco told News 12. "That's what makes it more difficult to locate him."
Lacarter was arrested again on June 29 for a probation violation, then released a month later.
Because investigators make frequent checks with sexual predators, they say most offenders often comply with the registration requirements.
His daughter told us she believes Lacarter may be living in Florida.

Toss the Guidebook. Hit the Streets
Road Warrior provides travel tips from those who know best: busy executives and other globetrotters. See previous columns
Kevin Wilkey is the head of Asia legal at life insurer MetLife in Hong Kong.
The Kansas native talks about Paris' best udon, being stuck in a snowstorm in Tibet, and how to navigate Hong Kong taxis even if you don't speak Cantonese.
How often are you up in the air?
Twice a month.
Where do you go most often?
New York, Paris, London and Australia. In Asia, Japan, Korea, China, India, Malaysia and Vietnam.
Favorite hotel?
The Mandarin Oriental in Tokyo. I love the modern vibe, especially when looking out at Tokyo. I can feel the pulse of the city, gazing at all the railway lines, buildings and overhead expressways. Inside the hotel, one also gets a feeling of spaciousness, which is often hard to find in Japan.
Favorite airline?
Cathay Pacific [Airways]. The new business class is much more spacious and has a better entertainment system. The airline has a wide network. I like the new lounge. I love having a coffee in the back, and maybe an ice cream. The service is great.
Best airline seats?
The seats on the aisle with the most legroom. I bring along my own noise-reduction headphones. It cancels out all unnecessary chatter, making the experience more pleasant.
Frequent-flier program?
Cathay Pacific.
Favorite airport?
Incheon [near Seoul]. Everything works like clockwork. The spaces are immaculate, clean and beautiful.
Preferred luggage?
Carry-on. Waiting for luggage at the end of a long trip can be frustrating.
Packing strategies?
As little as possible. One really doesn't need that much.
Which travel apps do you use?
Apps can be very convenient but also condemn you to spending even more time with your mobile phone. However, the Hong Kong Taxi Translator app, which translates to Cantonese and shows the characters for streets, is extremely helpful. Google Maps and other maps are essential for navigating Seoul and Tokyo, where street addresses don't provide much help.
What's your best travel advice?
Don't be wedded to a guidebook. Try to enjoy life as those who live there do. Walking the streets is the best way to get to know a city. As the world gets smaller and more uniform, it is most interesting to try to find something unique about where you travel. I love studying foreign languages—French, German, Russian, Chinese, Korean—and like to try to speak the local language when overseas as much as I can.
How do you stay fit while traveling?
I go to the gym as much as possible and try not to overeat. Walking, instead of taking a taxi, helps. However, in any unfamiliar city, it's always best to be vigilant.
Most memorable travel experience?
Tibet. I was stranded on the top of a 15,000-foot pass in the middle of a snowstorm, faced with having to rescue only the dearest belongings and trudging in the snow to the nearest village some miles away. Fortunately, we were able to cram 10 people into a passing jeep. Once across the pass, all was sunny and bright.
What's left on the bucket list?
Antarctica, Africa, Latin America, and Samarkand [Uzbekistan]. Unfortunately, a number of the places like Syria, Iraq, Iran and Libya aren't the most accessible places to visit these days.
Favorite city?
Paris. I visit as often as possible for the cafes, the streets, the architecture, the food and the wines. It's where my favorite udon restaurant, Kunitoraya, is located.
Favorite restaurant/bar?
Fan Tang in Hong Kong's Causeway Bay. It's a relatively small restaurant. Some of my favorites are the corn and salted egg yolk fritters, and the sirloin beef cubes with garlic appetizers. The choy sum in claypot is amazing as is their tai tse gai fried chicken. Lunch and dinner here never disappoints. For bars, MO Bar at Landmark Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong is always a central place to meet people and hang out.
Which city has the best taxis?
Hong Kong. It's usually possible to get a taxi, which is the main determinant. New York is not far behind. London cabs are, of course, the most comfortable, while Paris is about the hardest place to get a taxi.

Ursula K. Le Guin, Harper's, National Endowment for the Arts, decline in reading
Americans are reading less, reports the Writer's Chronicle. The article cites a November 2007 report (pdf) by the National Endowment for the Arts, which found that Americans of all demographic groups are voluntarily reading less than 10 to 20 years ago. "If, at the current pace, America continues to lose the habit of regular reading, the nation will suffer substantial economic, social, and civic setbacks," the study concludes.
Ursula K. Le Guin offers an alternative perspective in the February 2008 issue of Harper's (excerpt only available online). "I want to question the assumption—whether gloomy or faintly gloating—that books are on the way out," Le Guin writes. "It's just that not all that many people ever did read them. Why should we think everybody ought to now?"

Getting involved with drugs abroad: the risks
Remember that:
- depending on what country you are in, if caught in possession of narcotics you could face anything from a fine to the death penalty
- many countries outside the UK refuse to grant bail to those suspected of drugs offences before trial and often detain people in solitary confinement
- you will get a criminal record in the UK if caught with drugs abroad
- if you've been caught with drugs abroad, you're unlikely to ever be allowed to visit that country again
- if you get injured or ill as a result of illicit drugs use, your holiday insurance may be invalidated and your tour operator can refuse to fly you home
If you get involved with drugs abroad, the British Consul cannot:
- get you out of jail
- get you better prison conditions than are provided for locals or other nationals
- give legal advice
You can find out about what help you can get at the page below:
Don't be a victim of drugs abroad
To make sure you don't become a victim of drugs abroad, you should:
- pack all luggage yourself and make sure it's securely fastened
- keep your luggage with you at airports and other departure points to avoid the possibility of having drugs planted in it
- be aware of approaches from people at airports - even seemingly innocent requests to look after someone's possessions can lead to problems
- don't carry anything through customs for someone else - if drugs are found, you will be held responsible
- for similar reasons don't cross borders with people you don't know or drive across borders with unknown companions
- carry a doctor's prescription for any medication you may need to avoid unnecessary delays at customs and immigration checks
- be very cautious when accepting gifts from people abroad - it's easy to hide drugs in items such as trainers, cosmetics and children's toys
Visit the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's Travel Advice pages for information on drug laws and penalties country by country.

So at my baby shower my MIL whipped out her phone and started showing me pictures of a crib. I thought this was strange as I already have a crib. I then realized that she was showing me a crib that was at her house. She then started showing me paint chips and explaining that she was going to have the nursery painted by this weekend and isn't her nursery for the baby just darling?? I really like my MIL and she is the sweetest lady but I think that this is kind of weird. I mean I haven't even had the baby and she already has a whole nursery set up for him. My dad thinks this is sweet, my mother and sisters think this is weird. I'm kind of leaning towards weird presumptuous. What do you think?
*Poll* Is this weird or am I making too much of it?
Presumptuious but probably with good intentions. MIL waited until ODS was old enough to stay at her house before getting a crib (which for us was 8+months), and at that point included me in the decision making. I think it depends on both your relationship with her, and your plans for post baby. Will baby be in daycare by 8 or 12 weeks? So its not unheard of for you to maybe leave the baby for a date night or something? Or are you planning to breastfeed with no bottles and she knows? In that case I'd take it a bit more harshly. It really just depends on how she is percieving the coming events and what you may or may not have actually made clear to her.
Mama to Finnegan Oscar 6/30/08

weird! my mil is acting the same way but worse. She by far has more baby stuff tha we do and she calls my DH every single day and only talks about the baby.
We really werent even very close to her before we were pregnant. After she found out about this baby she is sooooo involved and it just seems to be getting worse the closer we get to the due date.

Weird and entitled. She obviously thinks she's going to have the baby for overnight visits...and soon.
Just because she has a nursery doesn't mean your child will ever use it. A pack n' play would've been sufficient if you needed a date night or something. She's going way overboard.
That is a little odd. Does she expect to be housing the baby for long periods of time or something? lol. I have no idea what I would do if my MIL did that...but I'm sure she's just excited. Maybe you should let her know (in a nice way) that you don't intent to have your LO at her house all that much, enough to need an entire nursery.
I don't know your relationship w/ your in-laws. I'm pretty close to mine. My MIL did end up having a nursery, but it was after the pack-n-play sleeping arrangement was a total crash and burn for DS. Plus my MIL lived 2 hours away from us, so it was nice to have a real crib when we went home to visit.
Is she going to be a caregiver when you go back to work or something? Still, that would weird me out!

Maybe painting is a little over the top, but my parents were SO excited to have a "grandkids room"! They decorated it in a train theme, my dad even put in a train track with a big model train that goes around the room and through the closet. The kids love to watch it go around and around. I don't think it is weird or presumtuous, even they are not babysittig for us, when the whole family is over for the day it is SO nice to have a crib that is there and set up instead of having to bring/set up the pack & play...

How do you go about telling your MIL that the baby wont be using/needing all of the things she is buying. My MIL has bought 2 pack and plays, a swing, a jumperoo and a vibrating chair. That is not including all of the toys and clothes she has bought to have at her house.
(Just a note...we probably go to our in-laws house about 5 times a year)

So, it's been a month since Radiohead released their new album, In Rainbows, based on a pricing model where punters decide how much they are ready to pay for it. There was lots of speculation as to what this means for the music industry, but we now have some hard and fast figures as to what to expect from the general public. But before you rush off, set up a website, buy some email marketing software and try to sell your records online, have a look how Radiohead got on.
ComScore have released a report that shows what has happened in this first month. Here are some salient points:
There were 1.2 million distinct visitors hitting the site and the breakdown of downloaders is as follows:
Here's the breakdown of the amounts paid:
I found that quite interesting. The majority of people aren't ready to pay anything for their music, but there are also others who are happy to contribute. The bottom line is that there's a substantial segment after free goods, and this is enormous if someone can find a way to tap into it.
It's worth pointing out the skew in the figures above. Radiohead is an established band with a huge fan base, riding on the bow of a PR wave through doing something novel and exciting. How much traction would a new/unknown band get if they tried this now?
I'm old fashioned…
I bought the radiohead album in the store.
It is very, very interesting I am not sure what it means yet..
Bought it in the store? Quite something given it's not out yet..
This post made Jo's Top 5 this week.
@Slim, I didn't buy it instore .. I bought it online

Leased a JetSportW TDI that had stalling problems from day one, by 5000
miles the dashboard lights began to dance. Four services later and not
finding the problem, the tell me I have a vacume leak and it my fault
and its not covered. They showed me that under the car there was a
scrape where the the car was dropped and this caused the air manifold to
crack (looked liked a car carrier roll off acident). They took my car
and kept it for a month added four more parts to the bill and gave me
back my car after I had to pay $1,700. Three of the parts I paid for
were not on the car or in the car. I went back and they gave me
atttidude. I insisted and demanded my parts. They looked and they found
them (they had my name on them and the VIN number). Then they said leave
the car again and they will put them on. (what a con job). I took my
parts and left. The next day I'm hand washing my Black Car and notice
the Hood and spoiler has some kind of glue on the finish. A closer
inspection shows swirl marks all over the hood the rest of the car does
not have any marks since I always washed by my own hand. I almost
believe that they switched my hood with another car, and I can't get the
glue off the hood. I would love some lawyer to bring them a bait car
and sue the s**t out of these crooks.

A "Wonderously Wonderful" Film with the "Strangest Cast[...] in History"
There exists a film whose trailer tantalizes the brain; a film whose English dub, believed to have been created by the notorious K. Gordon Murray (his previous lies - he is described as a "flim-flammer" who ran a "kiddie circuit"), has eluded even the most fervent afficionados of strange cinema. Thanks to the people of Sweden and a translator known only as Doctor Death (and fixes from uploader Justin Sane - you can see the translation by turning on captions), you can enter the world of The Secret of Magic Island: the live-action children's film starring an all-animal cast.
White God
How did they get those dogs to do that? "Hundreds of dogs rise up against their oppressors in this visually stunning, one-metaphor-fits-all Hungarian drama... a film featuring 274 dogs, no CGI, and a pair of canine protagonists who consistently out-emote their human co-stars."
They say, 'I never saw a Jew with a dog before!'
"We never forget them, they're always with us."
Beagle wins.
"But Tibetan mastiffs are so 2013."
Once-Prized Tibetan Mastiffs Are Discarded as Fad Ends in China [New York Times]
"Then there is the Tibetan mastiff, a lumbering shepherding dog native to the Himalayan highlands that was once the must-have accouterment for status-conscious Chinese. Four years ago, a reddish-brown purebred named Big Splash sold for $1.6 million, according to news reports, though cynics said the price was probably exaggerated for marketing purposes. No reasonable buyer, self-anointed experts said at the time, would pay more than $250,000 for a premium specimen."
What to do with a cart and no horse?
Hitch the cart to a dog, of course. Dogs (and sometimes goats) were used to pull small carts in much of Europe, usually by people who could not afford to keep horses. The heyday of these small dog-drawn carts was in the 19th century, when dog carts were commonly used in places like England, the Netherlands, and Belgium to deliver milk and sometimes other groceries. In fact, the Belgian Army even experimented with dog-drawn carts toting machine guns during WWI. Previously. [more inside]
Together, they fight crime!
Tanja Brandt is a German photographer who has dedicated her career to photographing animals and wildlife. In one of her most recent projects, Brandt shot photographs of a highly unlikely pair of friends: Ingo, the Belgian shepherd, and Poldi (Napoleon), the one-year-old owlet.
"Oh no! You've found my only weakness!!"
Dogs Sitting on Cats [slyt | Turn Off Annotations]
Baby Elephant gets Frustrated Chasing a Dog. [slyt | cute]
"Bonding with owners is much more important for dogs than other pets,"
"Dogs don't just seem to pick up on our subtle mood changes — they are actually physically wired to pick up on them." A recent neuroimaging study shows how closely tied to humans dogs have become over the last 30,000 years.
Stay. Stay. Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! NOPE!
The Beastmasters
GQ visits the Cute Animal Viral Machine at the heart of Buzzfeed. "One joke in the BuzzFeed offices is that no one employed there can quite explain to their parents what exactly it is they do. To those parents, I would like to say: I can't entirely explain it, either, but whatever it is, these men and women are so fucking good at it. They have thought hard about who looks at what and why. Jack has done entire studies on why cats have triumphed over dogs on the Internet. (The answer involves 'path dependency,' the fancy economics term for when one product, like VHS, conquers another equally legitimate one, like Betamax.) He can tell you with some certainty that a reader of BuzzFeed is equally inclined to click on a photo of a dog or a cat—but that he or she is significantly more likely to share the photo of the cat with others. (Why? 'Totally non-data-driven theory is that dogs are trying too hard,' Jack says.)"
That's why you don't let the puppy sleep on your head
"Owl pets dog"
Pure, uncut animal photos (and stories)
The Dodo is a new website by Kerry Lauerman (former Salon editor-in-chief) and Izzie Lerer (of the Lerer family) about animals, and particularly about humanity's relationship with animals: We think of them less as objects at our disposal, as science increasingly reveals them to be intelligent, emotional, social beings that are not as different from us as we used to think they were. Its lead article today is an essay by Glenn Greenwald (previously) on the dogs he and his partner David Miranda have fostered at their home in Brazil. And, as you might expect, there are also heartwarming posts such as this one about elephants being reunited after 20 years apart.
