Cancer Health Center
Testicular Cancer: A Second Chance
July 25, 2007 - When the preferred treatment fails to cure testicular cancer, a daring new treatment strategy offers hope.
The strategy involves intensive doses of chemotherapy. These doses would be lethal to blood cells, but researchers rescue patients by giving them infusions of stem cells isolated from the patients' own blood.
Can such a tricky business really work? Yes, suggests a study by testicular cancer pioneer Lawrence Einhorn, MD, Rafat Abonour, MD, and colleagues at Indiana University Cancer Center.
The researchers tested the treatment in 184 consecutive patients with metastatic testicular cancer that continued to spread despite state-of-the-art, platinum-based, combination chemotherapy.
Amazingly, 116 of these 184 patients had complete remission of their cancer without relapse for a median 48 months.
"Over the years we have mastered how to give these drugs -- two chemotherapy cycles with stem cell support," Abonour tells WebMD. "We have been able to show we can cure over 65% of these patients. Even among those not previously considered curable, 25% are cured with our approach."
The technique isn't without risk. The drugs apparently killed three of the patients; two from liver failure and the other from toxic effects on the lungs. Three others developed leukemia; two died.
"The toxicity window is very narrow," Manish Kohli, MD, a testicular cancer expert at the University of Rochester School of Medicine, tells WebMD. "There were three drug-related deaths in this study -- and that is in the hands of experts. But this provides hope as an option for patients who respond poorly to first-line treatment."
Patients undergoing the treatment take drugs that drive stem cells from the bone marrow to the blood. These cells are harvested and stored. The patients then undergo high-dose chemotherapy at five times the usual dose, followed by an infusion of stem cells to replenish their blood cells. Three or four weeks later, doctors repeat the process.
"We give them the big-dose chemotherapy, the big guns, to get rid of all the cancer cells. This also kills off the bone marrow, so we replace it by infusing these healthy cells," Abonour says. "So the patients, instead of being without normal blood cells for four to six weeks, it is only four to seven days. You can do it safely that way."

Yosemite National Park ATTRACTIONS See all
Glacier Point
During the winter, skiers are rewarded only after a 10.5 cross-country tour; during the summer, hikers can choose from the misleadingly named Four Mile Trail (it's actually closer to five miles long), the nearly nine mile Panorama Trail or, for the truly ambitious, a combination of the two trails, to reach the promontory.
However, if you lack the time, desire or stamina to climb the nearly 3,200 feet (975 meters) above the valley floor, consider the four-hour Glacier Point Tour, which departs daily from Yosemite Lodge.
Practical Info
The Glacier Point Tours require reservations, but can be made from any Tour & Activity Desk. Tours depart at 8:30am, 10am and 1:30pm daily from May through October. Cost ranges from $23 for a child to $41 for an adult; children under five years of age are free. One-way tickets are available if you decide to ride up and hike back down.

Dear guys,How's the power consumption of D700? I seldom hear anyone comment on this. As good as D300?This is one poorest problem in D200, sometimes 2 batteries are not enough for whole day taking.I'm selling my D200 and DX lenses for D700 I remember I post few questions here when I first learn to take photos with my "new" F80s.D700 draws me back finally Regards,Philip

I really can't answer your question directly as this is my first Nikon DSLR. I have been using my D700 to take 100 or so images with lots of checking things out on the LCD plus lots of use of the menu to change/adjust setting and it is still on the same battery and initial charge. That is good enough for me but how it compares to other models I don't know. I am sure that if there was any glaring deficiency in battery life, or any other deficiency for that matter, you would have heard about it by now.Bob

Nikon gives figues for expected battery life in the camera manuals. Whilst these are not really a great guide to how long a battery might last for any given user, they are done using a standard test procedure and thus should allow a reasonable comparison of battery performance in different cameras.For example, with one EN-EL3e in the camera, the approximate estimates given are:D700 - 2,500D300 - 3,000D200 - 1,800So I would expect the D700 battery life to be noticeably better than the D200, but not as good as the D300.

This is very subjective, but it seems to me that my D700 is going through the battery much more quickly than my D300. But, I haven't tested it in any systematic way, so it is possible that I am wrong.I would be interested to know if anyone else has measured batter life.

The battery life is much improved over the D200.I was lucky to get 200-220 shots from a D200.I'd say that battery life is about twice as good?

I previously used the D200 and I have only used my new D700 on a few occasions but the one thing I did notice was the battery life is very much improved. I also have the MB-D10 grip with an extra cell and on two full days shooting at the Edinburgh Fringe I have only exhausted one battery. Previously with my D200 I would have to charge both cells for the second day's shooting and even occasionaly have to use AA cells towards the end of the day.Some of my Fringe photos here,http://www.flickr.com/photos/daviddalziel/sets/72157606512298488/

I never ran the battery all the down in my D200 or D300, and I don't do so in the D700 or D3 either. The charge/recharge cycles of these particular sorts of batteries seem to respond better with only occassional full drains (especially using the fancy-schmancy charger supplied with the D3). So far, the EN-EL3e in the D700 is running for days (and at least 1,500 exposures) before I get down to somewhere between 25%-50% of charge capacity, at which point I switch to a spare EN-EL3e and recharge the other one. The first full charge seemed to last as long (see above) as it did for similar use in my D300. I think the second charge has lasted longer (going strictly by exposure count) but it's kind of meaningless/impossible to estimate in that I have no real way of accurately matching shots, fill flash usage and so on with previous usage of another camera and battery combination. My subjective impressions are that the electronics in the D700 are incrementally more efficient than in previous bodies in this form factor and that battery life is consequently slightly longer per charge. Considering that battery life in the D200 and D300 was/is excellent, it's good news all around.

Skip to comments.Democrats Air Frustrations with Obama 'Cockiness'
Posted on 09/03/2012 8:35:32 AM PDT by Justaham
President Obama's competitive, boastful nature and condescending advice rubs even loyal Democrats the wrong way, a new profile alleges.
The New York Times' Jodi Kantor airs complaints from "loyal" Obama associates -- not as a buried lede but explicitly in her introduction:
He has mentioned more than once in recent weeks that he cooks a really mean chili. He has impressive musical pitch, he told an Iowa audience. He is a surprisingly good pool player, he informed an interviewer not to mention (though he does) a doodler of unusual skill.
The article reports Obama's associates characterize this bluster and political zeal as "cockiness." Further, Washington Democrats say he is all too eager to offer unsolicited advice -- on handshakes, writing, and parenting, among other topics.
For those activities at which he feels inadequate, Obama reportedly dedicates considerable time to practice, no matter how trivial the pastime:
He has played golf 104 times since becoming president, according to Mark Knoller of CBS News, who monitors his outings, and he asks superior players for tips that have helped lower his scores. He decompresses with card games on Air Force One, but players who do not concentrate risk a reprimand (Youre not playing, youre just gambling, he once told Arun Chaudhary, his former videographer).
His idea of birthday relaxation is competing in an Olympic-style athletic tournament with friends, keeping close score. The 2009 version ended with a bowling event. Guess who won, despite his history of embarrassingly low scores? The president, it turned out, had been practicing in the White House alley.
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
"He is everywhere and yet nowhere. He constantly wants our attention, but has nothing to tell us. There is a real physical Barack Hussein Obama walking about somewhere, but there needn't be. He would be just as real, if he didn't exist. If he were nothing more than a poster, a logo, a few books, some computer graphics and a slogan. He would be no less real, because he isn't real. He's a brand."
" Confucius say: _resident with hand in pocket feel cocky all day."?
Kim Il Obama triumphs again!
Bowling at the WH alley, watching ESPN, filling out his college BBall brackets, campaigning....
When does he have time for family and focusing on jobs???
Wait. Let me rephrase
Confucius say: _resident with hand in AMERICA's pocket feel cocky all day.?
We didn't build that — him or his candidacy. Zero is a Demwit problem.
Thanks Justaham.
He's compensating because he has no identity.
Obama's cockiness is the bluster of a vapid man.
"Shut up, peon! Send me three dollars."
Something tells me that as soon as he's out, unlike Jimmy Carter, no one will want anything to do with him.
Main complaint: How can we continually lie to our constituency about how much you care when you act like you don't?
"You're not playing, you're just gambling." -Obama
Sounds like what a bad player says when his bluff gets called...
Just a case of malignant narcissism indulged and humored on a massive level.
Democrats Air Frustrations with Obama's 'Cockiness'
Republicans Air Frustrations with Obama's 'Aswipiness'..
He just don't do a good job of it..
Gimme a small movie theater, and a small room with a couple of guitars, bass included, drums and a few amplifiers.
I don't play golf, so I'd mostly have guitars around my shoulder.
But only one at a time, because two can't fit.
Unless it's a double neck.
From the looks of things, does this special person do anything remotely connected to traditional American President duties....all I hear or see about is golf, beer, chili, golf, golf, golf, B-ball, and so forth....what time does this welfare president wake up in the morning?
LOL. They are just now figuring out the man is a narcissistic self-absorbed jerk? Obama walking down WH halls where he had all the pictures replaced to pictures of himself didn't do it?
It would be fun watching media heads who are suddenly discovering who O really is, if it weren't for the destruction and havoc he's wrought on this country in the four years that they hadn't figured it out yet.
Bill O'Reilly suddenly figuring the man is anti-family. So many Dem businessmen realizing he's anti-business. Me screaming at the TV, why do you not see the warning signs? Why aren't you paying attention?
All those speeches they raved about and we all looked at each other saying, "Do they not realize the man used the word "I" 72 times? The defects of his character were blazing out for anyone not blinded by self-delusion. Of course, nowadays people are thought to think of themselves first so it went by the secular-progressives.
"Logic, why don't they teach logic in these schools!" -The Magician's Nephew, CS Lewis
"He is everywhere and yet nowhere. He constantly wants our attention, but has nothing to tell us. There is a real physical Barack Hussein Obama walking about somewhere, but there needn't be. He would be just as real, if he didn't exist. If he were nothing more than a poster, a logo, a few books, some computer graphics and a slogan. He would be no less real, because he isn't real. He's a brand."
We conservatives have been saying the EXACT same thing since Obama announced his presidential run back in 2007 and most of us were called racist.
Is Greenfield a Racist or only certain people allowed to critize Obama?
Did anyone else watch the home films of Romney playing with his kids at the RNC and wonder, why haven't we seen any home films of Obama and his kids, playing?
Even the Kennedys had that.
This is his 'tell'.....arrogant, omnipotent - evil tyranny rolled up into one human being so corrupted by hate he can't even think about anyone but himself.
Does it account for the oft-repeated opinion that if citizens do not approve of his actions and policies it is because he has not spent enough time explaining them?
Is "practicing" a role as President of the United States in order to fulfill a need to be what has been longingly described as one of the top few to fill the office leadership? Or, is it the action of an immature and arrogant actor/tyrant who wants to beat others' expectations of his abilities.
Are they really his?
"I can create a steaming pile of impressive proportions and amazing pungency."
I guess BO's "friends" don't like him much, either.
It is only a matter of time until the RAT's start jumping ship — JMHO.
My ears are bleeding from the racist dog whistle sound of that word!
My God, if a Republican had called Obama "cocky" Ed Schultz would blow a gasket.
Good grief.
Their shredders will be working in overdrive from November to January. The damage this incompetant fool has done will not be fully known until he is gone, but I fear he is going to be around for years spreading his socialist doctrine. We can't get rid of these people.
It's going to take days to fumigate and clean the WH.
I've never understood why he gets a pass on playing golf so much.
Golf is a game played by wealthy people, the proverbial 1%. Obama and good Democrats sympathize with the poor and downtrodden, etc. So, how can he in good conscience play golf, the game of the wealthy and powerful????
Obama: The "Smartest person in America"?
If George W. Bush had doubled the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had criticized a state law that he admitted he never even read, would you think that he is just an ignorant hot head?
If George W. Bush joined the country of Mexico and sued a state in the United States to force that state to continue to allow illegal immigration, would you question his patriotism and wonder who's side he was on?
If George W. Bush had put 87,000 workers out of work by arbitrarily placing a moratorium on offshore oil drilling on companies that have one of the best safety records of any industry because one company had an accident would you have agreed?
If George W. Bush had used a forged document as the basis of the moratorium that would render 87,000 American workers unemployed would you support him?
If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a TelePrompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?
If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had stated that there were 57 states in the United States, would you have said that he is clueless?
If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?
If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?
If George W. Bush would have flown all the way to Denmark to make a five minute speech about how the Olympics would benefit him walking out his front door in Texas, would you have thought he was a self important, conceited, egotistical jerk.
If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?
If George W. Bush had misspelled the word "advice" would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoes as proof of what a dunce he is?
If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?
If George W. Bush's administration had ok'ed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?
If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?
If George W. Bush had created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening in America, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had ordered the [termination of employment] of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 19 months — so you'll have two years and five months to come up with an answer.
Every statement in this pathetic laundry list of failures is factual and directly attributable to Obama. Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.
That's the Democrats' way of saying they think Ubama is "uppity".
Sounds very racist to me!
He may be all those things but he sure is one $hit-for-brains pResident.

SAN FRANCISCO - After years of bickering, Netflix and Comcast finally are working together to provide their subscribers with a more enjoyable experience when they're watching movies and old television shows over high-speed Internet connections.
The new partnership is part of a breakthrough announced Sunday that requires Comcast's Internet service to create new avenues for Netflix's video to travel on its way to TVs and other devices. In return for the improved access, Netflix will pay Comcast an undisclosed amount of money for the next few years.
The arrangement represents an about-face for Netflix Inc., which had steadfastly refused to pay high-speed Internet service providers already collecting $40 to $60 per month from its customers. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings had contended that his company's Internet video service is one of the main reasons why households pay for broadband, making it unreasonable for Internet service providers such as Comcast Corp. to demand additional money from content providers.
Comcast and other broadband providers argued Netflix's growing popularity should require the Los Gatos, Calif., company to shoulder some of the financial burden for delivering its video. In evening hours, Netflix's 33 million U.S. subscribers generate nearly a third of the Internet's downloading activity, according to the research firm Sandvine.
Now that Netflix has relented to Comcast, the largest U.S. broadband service, similar deals are more likely to be reached with other Internet providers.
Here's a closer look at what this shift means for subscribers to Netflix and high-speed Internet services:
Q: How will consumers be affected?
A: Netflix subscribers relying on Comcast should already be seeing fewer interruptions as video streams over the network. The quality of the picture should be better, too. The improvements started to appear Thursday when Comcast and Netflix began working together, though their collaboration wasn't revealed until Sunday. Some analysts believe the alliance might set the stage for Comcast to eventually include an application for Netflix's service on its cable-TV boxes, making it even more accessible.
If the claims of better performance are true, it would reverse how Netflix's video had been performing on Comcast's Internet service. The average speed during prime-time viewing hours fell 25 percent from January 2013 to this January, based on Netflix's own measurements.
Q: What was the problem?
A: That's a matter of debate. Critics of Internet service providers suspect Comcast and its peers were deliberately slowing Netflix's video as a negotiating tactic aimed at extracting additional fees. But plenty of analysts traced the slowdown to Netflix's increasing viewership and the limited number of ports that Internet providers have built to receive online content.
Netflix has long been hiring third-party vendors to deliver its video to the doors of Comcast and other Internet providers - as if Netflix had been hiring a fleet of delivery trucks to transport its products to a store. As more people stream Netflix video, the company had to dispatch more trucks. Meanwhile, other Internet services also were sending trucks with their merchandise.
Like any congested highway, bottlenecks were slowing traffic down. Now that it's getting paid extra money, Comcast is going to create special roads for Netflix's video. By bypassing the bottlenecks, Netflix video should stream more smoothly for Comcast subscribers.
Q: Is Netflix the only service with express lanes dedicated for its content?
A: No. Google, which owns the YouTube video site, and social networking service Facebook, among others, had already reached similar deals with Comcast and other Internet providers.
Q: What prompted Netflix to ante up?
A: No one knows for certain, but Comcast's clout probably had a lot to do with it. Comcast already has nearly 21 million broadband subscribers, and that number will swell to about 30 million by the end of the year if the company wins regulatory approval to buy rival Time Warner Cable.
If Netflix's video-streaming quality continued to deteriorate on Comcast, Netflix risked alienating its own subscribers. The discontent would have undercut Netflix's subscriber growth and hurt its stock.
Q: Will Netflix raise its prices to help offset the extra money that it's paying Comcast?
A: The $8 monthly price for a Netflix subscription in the U.S. may eventually rise, but the increase probably won't be tied to the Comcast deal.
Although the terms aren't being spelled out, it appears Netflix may just be reshuffling its expenses for video delivery. The company already had been paying other contractors to handle those deliveries. Now, some of the money is going to be paid to Comcast instead.

(b) The connecting rod BD is assumed to be a 5-lb slender rod and is attached to the 6-lb piston P. Knowing that during a test of the system crank AB is made to rotate with a constant angular velocity of 1000 rpm clockwise with no force applied to the face of the piston, calculate and plot the horizontal and vertical components of the dynamic reactions exerted on the connecting rod at B and D for values of q from 0 to 180° (5° increments).

A new theory of inertia could explain how NASA is generating thrust with a new drive design, and may even show them how to make it more powerful.
Proponents of the EmDrive are still trying to demonstrate it can work, but evidence remains thin on the ground despite a new report. The problem with the design — the fact that it violates the laws of physics — remain unaddressed.
SpaceX has successfully tested the revolutionary in-laid escape engines in its upcoming Dragon crewed space capsule.
The EM Drive has become one of the biggest internet fights of the past few years, but now the experts are finally starting to weight in with real evidence.
NASA didn't set out to confirm the feasibility of a seemingly impossible fuel-less thruster design, but it seems they did exactly that.
The public has raised more than $150,000 to save a long-retired satellite called ISEE-3 — but a deadline is fast approaching, and the team might not be ready in time.

The Indian Mongoose was originally brought to Hawaii in 1883. It was believed that the mongooses (no, not mongeese) would help control the rising Rat population on the Islands, but the mongoose is mostly active during the day while the rats were active at night and they didn't have much of an impact on the rats.

A large west-northwest swell continued to affect the outer coastal waters of Southern California today. Breakers of 8 to 12 feet, with locally higher sets, pounded the coastline. Water can be seen here making it to the top of the beach past the burm.

Shambaa people
The Shambaa (also called the Sambaa, Shambala, Sambala, or Sambara) are an ethnic and linguistic group based in the Usambara Mountains of northeastern Tanzania. In 2001, the Shambaa population was estimated to number 664,000.[1]
Kishambaa is the Sambaa word for the Shambala language, Wasambaa are the people (Msambaa for a person), and Usambaa or Usambara is used for Sambaa lands. The Shambaa call their lands Shambalai.
The language is mutually intelligible with Bondei and Zigua, with the three groups sharing significant overlap in territory and a long history of intermarriage. The similarity between them has prompted some to refer to themselves as "Boshazi" (the first syllable from each of the three groups).
Sambaa belongs to the North East Coastal Bantu languages. A group which includes Swahili, however Swahili is not mutually intelligible with Sambaa.
The WaSambaa were ruled by the Kilindi dynasty from the mid-18th century to the end of the 19th century. The founder of the dynasty was Mbegha, and his son Bughe established the hilltop capital at Vuga.[2] The kingdom reached its greatest extent under Kimweri ye Nyumbai. After he died in 1862 a civil war broke out over the succession, fueled by competition for the new wealth that the caravan trade in the Pangani valley had brought to the region.[3] Smallpox and slave trading contributed to the disintegration of the kingdom, and in 1898 a fire destroyed Vuga. The Germans took control.[4] Under colonial rule the dynasty continued to have some authority, but in 1962 the Tanzanian government removed all power from the hereditary chiefdoms.[5] Kimweri ye Nyumbai's descendant Kimweri Mputa Magogo (died 1999) was the last Lion King.[6]
The Usambara area was the early colonial headquarters for German East Africa during the hot season. Tanganyika, the name for the German colony, and later for the republic and eventually for the mainland portion of Tanzania is itself from Sambaa: Tanga means farmed land, and nyika is brushy land.

"Websites For Printers was able to adapt our website to meet our needs. We are a more atypical printer than most Websites For Printers customers, but even though we use our website differently than most of their clients do, Websites For Printers was still able to customize it to our needs.
The entire process of setting up our website was very simple, and having information readily available made it a much smoother process. It was also convenient to not have to start from scratch. Websites For Printers had the ready-to-use content that I would be selling from my website already in place. Because of this, I did not have to do all of the work myself and was able to easily tweak the information to fit our business without reinventing the wheel."

He lost his first school a few years ago because his rude and physical behavior soon got around and people learned what Michael Graves is truly like. Mr.Graves is only interested in tournament training for his students nothing else matters to him.
If you don't want to join his sport karate team to make himself look good when they fight in tournaments around the world and win his school metals he will be extremely rude to you and your training will be very unpleasant!
He will deliberately hurt you and act like it was an accident or make a poor excuse up to cover himself! I'm sharing with everyone my personal experience at this school! I would highly recommend that people that are wanting a great martial arts instructor please look somewhere else or you will go through hell like i did!
Note: He has enough loyal students that are just like him that have been with him since day one and have the same dishonorable attitude as well! They are posting comments to try to protect him in fact they are making remarks that are very untrue and again that is his staff that works for him or family and friends trying to help fight against these complaints which for him is a losing battle. majority of people know what he's about and people are coming out to warn potential victims so they can steer clear of his karate school!
He Opened back up in the same general location as before in the shopping center in wawa next to the scissor wizard!
P.S. I hope everyone heeds my warning about this school! Thank you everybody and " Bows humbly"

From the PR - "we've been focused on advancing our scaffolding device into a first-in-man clinical trial. By the 2013 Summit, we expect to have the clinical study underway"
Frank would not issue a PR that clinical trials are expected to start by summer unless he knew the FDA was preparing to approve their spinal scaffold treatment as a HUD...The ex-head of FDA has a hugely successful track record and this one will be no exception, given how the simian trials were remarkably successful.
completely agree and personally not worried about NVIV long term, but NVIV is tanking for 2 reasons, 1.) 1st 45 day window wasn't met, and we don't know if FDA response has been submitted, 2.) STEM put out positive news on their trial. Personally I don't see the STEM news as earthshaking yet. If NVIV can do to humans what it did for monkees, then that's earthshaking. What STEM says they accomplished might possibly have happened anyway with physical therapy. It's too soon and results too small to tell STEMs true impact. In any case, some stem cell investors have moved from here to there due to their news. NVIV needs to put out a PR stating exactly the status of HUD re-submission. But in the long run, I think we'll do good here. Also I bought RFMK just for fun today, we'll see how high that marujuana stock can go. GLTA longs

When I logged in the server, it said that the account has been stolen. I have also noticed this account being for sale on multiple websites.
When I told them about the problem, they told me that they would not let me wait any longer, and they gave me a gift certificate for the amount of the purchase. They said I could use this along with a credit card to purchase a new account. They told me I had to be charged an additional $.01 to verify the sale. I sent them the $.01 they asked for and still no reply.
This is a SCAM. I think they are trying to steal everyone's identity with their "verification" proccess. Do not use these guys.

Airenne Curry's goal in the 8th minute was all Manteca High's girls soccer team needed in a 2-0 road win at Weston Ranch Monday, which evens the Buffaloes' Valley Oak League record to 1-1.
Opening the contest by jumping on its opponents first has not been the case for Lathrop High, but the Spartans were able to do just that against Bear Creek yet could not keep pace in a 14-4 non-league baseball loss to the Bruins Friday.
RIPON – Throughout the first 40 minutes the Ripon Christian girls soccer team failed to convert on a handful of relatively easy goal conversions, but its luck would change in the second half cruising to a 4-0 Southern League victory Thursday.
The Manteca Buffaloes wanted to close out its non-league schedule playing good baseball and winning ball games ,and the group has accomplished that feat, handling Argonaut High with ease in a 7-1 win Thursday on the road.
Sierra High's boys tennis team appears to have righted the ship after opening the Valley Oak League season with a tiebreaking loss to Kimball of Tracy last week.
Nick Olmo was worried his Sierra softball team would be rusty after taking nearly a full week off from action in Thursday's non-league finale at Linden High.
It came down to the final minutes, but the tone was set at the start of the Sierra High girls soccer team's 3-2 loss to visiting Oakdale in the Valley Oak League opener Wednesday.
The 2011 Lions All-Star Football Game rosters for the North and South teams were announced, and four area standouts will get the opportunity to close their high school football careers in the marquee Central Valley event amongst the best players in the area.
With the Ripon Christian Knights no longer in the Trans Valley League, Escalon will have the sour taste of its two-stroke 224-226 loss to the Knights in its mouth for the remainder of the season.
With mere days remaining before the start of the Valley Oak League season, the Manteca High baseball team got a good send off from starting pitcher Matt Burrows, who went seven innings scattering four hits in a 5-2 Manteca win over Stagg High Tuesday in Stockton.
The first four innings might not have been pretty, but East Union was able to get out with minimum damage Tuesday night in their non-league matchup against Escalon.
Ripon High's Andrew Bonner edged out Logan Vos of Ripon Christian for the second time in as many days Tuesday in a crosstown rivalry golf match featuring two of the area's best golfers.
Sierra High's Valley Oak League title defense in girls soccer begins tonight when it hosts unbeaten Oakdale.
For the first four innings of Sierra' varsity baseball game with the Johansen Vikings it seemed like the normal steps to a lopsided win were taking shape, but in the top of the inning the Vikings changed the script and Sierra needed a late insurance run in an 8-5 win Tuesday.
The Trans Valley League's best boys golfers of 2010 shined in the Yellowjacket Invitational hosted by Hilmar High at Stevinson Ranch Golf Club Monday.

East Union's nine-year run as Valley Oak League champion in girls golf may be in jeopardy.
Often described as "old school," Joe Miller was a no-nonsense leader who expected the best effort from his players on the field and beyond it.
East Union has higher expectations after a 3-7 finish in 2015 with an experienced core of third-year varsity seniors returning.
It has been a year – one very exciting year.

I'm 31 weeks along and have gained 3lbs so far. I actually lost weight the first couple months due to morning sickness, which actually was worst in the evenings. So, I've been having an issue lately eating in the evenings. I am starving in the morning and eat a good breakfast and also eat lunch, neither meal are big meals, I just don't seem to have the space for a lot of food. However, by the time I get home from work and its time to eat dinner, I feel incredibly bloated and just have no appetite at all, almost to where I feel sick. Yesterday I ate lunch about 1pm, a slice of pizza and salad. I didn't end up eating anything else until close to 9pm when I had a banana and then a half sandwich. I'm concerned about it, because I don't want to starve the baby but at the same time, I just can't bring myself to eat. Is anyone else experiencing this?? I'm going to the Dr tomorrow and plan to talk to her about it, up until now she has told me not to worry about having such a small amount of weight gain because I am taking the prenatals every day and he's getting what he needs from me.
Problems Eating in the evening
Comments (5)
I am not hungry at all in the evening. I did not have any morning sickness at all (well yet) but have had no appetite. I asked my dr about it and he said the baby will pull what it needs from you no matter what. For example, calcium. If you don't drink milk or get any calcium the baby will pull from other sources to get what it needs and leave you without. I am only 15 weeks tho so maybe at 31 weeks it is different. Let me know what your Doc says.
I talked to the doctor on Friday, she told me not to worry about it. As long as I am eating earlier in the day, and drinking enough fluids (including milk) and my weight stays steady, its fine. He will take what he needs from me.I told her sometimes all I can manage is a pudding cup or yogurt and that too is fine. Just keep up with the vitamins, eat healthy when I can.
That's pretty much what my dr said. I just feel bad not eating thinking that the baby is not getting enough of what it needs. But dr knows best. Good Luck!
Yesterday my husband got home from work and asked what I ate...all I could say was yogurt and some crackers! I've never been sick this pregnancy, but I have zero appetite.
I'm right there with all of you! I'm rarely hungry at all or if I'm hungry, I eat a few bites and then I'm stuffed. I lost 25 pounds in the first trimester and have yet to gain any back. I'm most hungry in the middle of the afternoon-morning and evenings are no good. Like all of these ladies have said, the dr says it's fine because baby girl is measuring right on track and is "excessively active" as the midwife called it so they're sure she's fine. And since I was told not to gain much weight (10-15 pounds at most), I guess it's ok that I'm not starving all the time! I just make sure I drink tons of fluids and take my vitamins

PARIS (KFSM) - If the Paris Eagles were in any other conference in 3A, they'd like be a favorite to win the league. But the Eagles are in what might be the deepest 3A conference you've ever seen.
"I've never seen anything like this," Paris coach Bryan Hutson said. "This is the SEC of I guess football in the whole state. I know the 7A-West is tough with all those schools but for 3A football it doesn't get any more difficult than this."
Paris won six games in 2013 despite having only one returning starter when the season began. That experience will be huge with the gauntlet of a schedule the Eagles face this fall.
"We have six teams that are in the top 20 in the state in just our conference," senior Grant Hutson said. "I think every team is a playoff team. There's only five spots to battle for."
The Eagles return 16 starters, eight on each side of the ball, but with that returning experience brings high expectations.
"It raises a lot of expectations," senior Ben Nix said. "We're expected to do more and we're planning on rising above our expectations that we have so far."
Just because they aren't one of the league favorites for the first time in recent history, that doesn't mean Paris isn't expecting to finish near the top of the league standings.
"It will be tough as always with Charleston and Booneville but as long as we can compete with them, I'll think we'll have a really good run at the playoffs," senior Eric Sarmiento said.

Keepers of the Wild, a nonprofit sanctuary, sits on 175 acres held in Trust, giving nearly 200 exotic animals a permanent home with beautiful rock formations, and natural vegetation. Animals featured include lions, tigers, wolves, many species of birds, reptiles, deer, various goats, donkeys, alpaca, lama, raccoons, a grizzly bear and more, all of which have been rescued from abuse and neglect.
History: Founder Jonathan Kraft had long established himself as a producer, creator, and performer in Las Vegas when he acquired two tiger cubs for a production. His work with wild animals included movies, TV shows, commercials, documentaries, specials, and a variety of shoots and exhibits. He soon witnessed the neglect and abuse that many animal performers suffer behind the scenes and learned that once these magnificent creatures lose their value as a performer they are commonly disposed of.
Jonathan started rescuing animals and as this reputation spread, he started receiving calls from performers seeking to unload under-performing animals. Consumed with the full-time care needs of the animals, he put his production on hiatus and launched Predator's Paradise, an educational wildlife theme park at the Aladdin Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. Predator's Paradise was successful, however Jonathan realized that animals in entertainment do not have a quality of life, even under the best circumstances. So in 1995, Jonathan established Keepers of the Wild as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal sanctuary on a three-acre site in Las Vegas, NV.
Keepers of the Wild relocated from Las Vegas to a 32 acre site in Whithills, AZ along Hwy 93 about 26 miles south of Hoover Dam in 1999. In 2006, it was relocated to the present location on Historic Route 66 and sits on 175 acres held in trust, giving nearly 200 exotic animals a permanent home with beautiful rock formations, and natural vegetation.

Perfect for Magic Loop Socks
By Laura
from West Chester, PA
Best Uses
Let me start by saying that there is another review here on Webs of these needles that says there was a smell to them. I bought the 47" size 1's and there is no smell, so hopefully that was a small scale problem. Putting that aside, I love these needles! The cables are flexible and perfect for magic loop socks. Smooth joins, nice tips, and less expensive than my other favorite needles for magic loop socks, which are the Knitter's Pride Karbonz.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The culture has changed
|Matt Pawlowski and his classmates left an indelible legacy at Guilford.
Photo courtesy Guilford Athletics
Guilford football now believes that it is a perennial contender.
Five years ago, the Quakers were winless. The following year, they went 2-8 in Chris Rusiewicz's first season. Then, the class of Matt Pawlowski and Adam Smith arrived on campus.
The freshmen contributed immediately, leading the Quakers to a 5-5 season. That was followed by 6-4 and 8-2 seasons and capped by this year's 9-1 finish, the best in program history.
The Quakers are still seeking the program's first playoff berth, but there is no question that the culture change is complete.
"All of us seniors felt like we were the turning point in this program," said senior receiver Adam Smith.
This year's nine wins are a record. The Quakers narrowly missed earning the first playoff berth in program history. As much as it hurts now, this year's senior class altered the course of this program.
"We knew our senior class was special when we brought them in," said Rusiewicz. "They really came together as one group and bonded together. They took care of the classes that came after them."
Smith set a program record with 3,988 career receiving yards. His 46 receiving touchdowns are also a record. Pawlowski finishes second behind Josh Vogelbach in nearly all of the Quakers career passing categories. He is the all-time leader in completion percentage at 63.7 percent.
"He's very accurate and very smart," said quarterbacks coach Steve McNeely of Pawlowski. "He will take what the defense gives him and will not be greedy. He uses his brain to his advantage."
McNeely knows what it takes to build a championship program. He arrived at Guilford earlier this year after coaching at Mount Union. He coached Kevin Burke, a two-time Gagliardi Trophy winner. He noticed right away that the coaching staff had prepared the Quakers to approach each week at a championship level. He also recognized that his new quarterback shared many attributes with his previous All-American.
"They are both tremendous kids on and off the field. They are hard workers who do whatever it takes for their team to win," said McNeely, comparing Pawlowski and Burke. "Either of them would trade all of his accolades for team success."
Smith and Pawlowski began their relationship as competitors. Both were high school quarterbacks, and Rusiewicz would have been comfortable with either starting as a freshman. Pawlowski won out and in Week 2 of that season Smith moved to wide receiver. The pair...
