WARNING: EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY and VENOUS AND ARTERIAL THROMBOEMBOLISM
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
POMALYST is only available through a restricted distribution program called POMALYST REMS®.
Venous and Arterial Thromboembolism
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Pregnancy
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
POMALYST REMS® Program
Because of the embryo-fetal risk, POMALYST is available only through a restricted program under a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) called "POMALYST REMS®." Prescribers and pharmacies must be certified with the program; patients must sign an agreement form and comply with the requirements. Further information about the POMALYST REMS® program is available at www.CelgeneRiskManagement.com or by telephone at 1-888-423-5436.
Venous and Arterial Thromboembolism: Venous thromboembolic events (DVT and PE) and arterial thromboembolic events (ATE) (myocardial infarction and stroke) have been observed in patients treated with POMALYST. In Trial 2, where anticoagulant therapies were mandated, thromboembolic events occurred in 8.0% of patients treated with POMALYST and low-dose dexamethasone (Low-dose Dex) vs 3.3% treated with high-dose dexamethasone. Venous thromboembolic events (VTE) occurred in 4.7% of patients treated with POMALYST and Low-dose Dex vs 1.3% treated with high-dose dexamethasone. Arterial thromboembolic events include terms for arterial thromboembolic events, ischemic cerebrovascular conditions, and ischemic heart disease. Arterial thromboembolic events occurred in 3.0% of patients treated with POMALYST and Low-dose Dex vs 1.3% treated with high-dose dexamethasone. Patients with known risk factors, including prior thrombosis, may be at greater risk, and actions should be taken to try to minimize all modifiable factors (e.g., hyperlipidemia, hypertension, smoking).
Hematologic Toxicity: In Trials 1 and 2 in patients who received POMALYST + Low-dose Dex, neutropenia (46%) was the most frequently reported Grade 3/4 adverse reaction, followed by anemia and thrombocytopenia. Monitor patients for hematologic toxicities, especially neutropenia. Monitor complete blood counts weekly for the first 8 weeks and monthly thereafter. Patients may require dose interruption and/or modification.
Hepatotoxicity: Hepatic failure, including fatal cases, has occurred in patients treated with POMALYST. Elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase and bilirubin have also been observed in patients treated with POMALYST. Monitor liver function tests monthly. Stop POMALYST upon elevation of liver enzymes. After return to baseline values, treatment at a lower dose may be considered.
Hypersensitivity Reactions: Angioedema and severe dermatologic reactions have been reported. Discontinue POMALYST for angioedema, skin exfoliation, bullae, or any other severe dermatologic reactions, and do not resume therapy.
Dizziness and Confusional State: In Trials 1 and 2 in patients who received POMALYST + Low-dose Dex, 14% experienced dizziness and 7% a confusional state; 1% of patients experienced Grade 3 or 4 dizziness and 3% experienced a Grade 3 or 4 confusional state. Instruct patients to avoid situations where dizziness or confusional state may be a problem and not to take other medications that may cause dizziness or confusional state without adequate medical advice.
Neuropathy: In Trials 1 and 2, patients who received POMALYST + Low-dose Dex experienced neuropathy (18%) and peripheral neuropathy (~12%). In Trial 2, 2% of patients experienced Grade 3 neuropathy.
Risk of Second Primary Malignancies: Cases of acute myelogenous leukemia have been reported in patients receiving POMALYST as an investigational therapy outside of multiple myeloma.
Tumor Lysis Syndrome: Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) may occur in patients treated with POMALYST. Patients at risk are those with high tumor burden prior to treatment. These patients should be monitored closely and appropriate precautions taken.
Nearly all patients treated with POMALYST + Low-dose Dex experienced at least one adverse reaction (99%). In Trial 2, the most common adverse reactions included neutropenia (51.3%), fatigue and asthenia (46.7%), upper respiratory tract infection (31%), thrombocytopenia (29.7%), pyrexia (26.7%), dyspnea (25.3%), diarrhea (22%), constipation (21.7%), back pain (19.7%), cough (20%), pneumonia (19.3%), edema peripheral (17.3%), peripheral neuropathy (17.3%), bone pain (18%), nausea (15%), and muscle spasms (15.3%). Grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions included neutropenia (48.3%), thrombocytopenia (22%), and pneumonia (15.7%).
Pomalidomide is primarily metabolized by CYP1A2 and CYP3A. Pomalidomide is also a substrate for P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Avoid the use of strong CYP1A2 inhibitors. If medically necessary to co-administer strong inhibitors of CYP1A2 in the presence of strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 and P-gp, reduce POMALYST dose by 50%. Cigarette smoking may reduce pomalidomide exposure due to CYP1A2 induction. Patients should be advised that smoking may reduce the efficacy of pomalidomide.
Pregnancy: If pregnancy does occur during treatment, immediately discontinue the drug and refer patient to an obstetrician/gynecologist experienced in reproductive toxicity for further evaluation and counseling. Report any suspected fetal exposure to POMALYST to the FDA via the MedWatch program at 1-800-332-1088 and also to Celgene Corporation at 1-888-423-5436.
Nursing Mothers: It is not known if pomalidomide is excreted in human milk. Pomalidomide was excreted in the milk of lactating rats. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for adverse reactions in nursing infants from POMALYST, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
Pediatric Use: Safety and effectiveness of POMALYST in patients under the age of 18 have not been established.
Geriatric Use: No dosage adjustment is required for POMALYST based on age. Patients >65 years of age were more likely than patients ≤65 years of age to experience pneumonia.
Renal and Hepatic Impairment: Pomalidomide is metabolized in the liver. Pomalidomide and its metabolites are primarily excreted by the kidneys. The influence of renal and hepatic impairment on the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pomalidomide has not been evaluated. Avoid POMALYST in patients with a serum creatinine >3.0 mg/dL. Avoid POMALYST in patients with serum bilirubin >2.0 mg/dL and AST/ALT >3.0 x ULN.

AbstractTraditional channel irrigation systems in Switzerland are managed on a community basis and have high cultural, touristic and ecological values. However, many irrigation communities disappeared in the last decades. This paper analyzes the factors contributing to the continuation of a still existent irrigation community. Our analysis thus provides insights into how to avoid further losses of these unique agricultural systems and to preserve the associated benefits. Based on hypotheses derived from game theoretical analysis, a survey was conducted in an irrigation community located in the canton of Valais. Our results show that the motivation of community members to remain in the traditional system is not a financial one. In contrast, factors such as long-term perspectives, system knowledge, communication and the institutional setting seem to be the basis for the continuation of the analyzed irrigation community. For policy makers, this example shows that the creation of institutions that enable self-governance, communication and knowledge transfer should be considered in this field of rural and agricultural policy making.

The weather got worse, Bradley and Ryder called it a day, Cavendish became a centurion and Nibali strengthened his grip on the maglia rosa. Our blogger Blazin' Saddles looks back at the second phase of the Giro d'Italia and makes some predictions for the final week.
The big story of the last six days in Italy was the persistent adverse weather conditions which brought about the withdrawal not only of the defending champion but also the peloton's most decorated rider. With Sir Bradley Wiggins and Ryder Hesjedal throwing in their snotty towels, the grip of maglia rosa Vincenzo Nibali on the 2013 Giro became all the more secure.
While it seems like Nibali has yet to break a sweat in the 96th edition of La Corsa Rosa, former British cyclist Robert Millar has described this year's Giro "not really bike racing anymore, [but] survival training".
Such has been the hellish combination of snow, relentless rain and chilly temperatures that you half expect Bear Grylls to pop up at the side of the road during the feed zone, explaining to the riders how to skin a rabbit with their spokes and how to use the inside of their bike frame as a percolator through which to purify their own urine in the case of emergency.
Sadly, because none of the host TV cameras seem to be operating in the kind of weather seen in northern England and Scotland for 51 weeks of the year, spectators will not be able to view such scenes. But fans will be safe in assuming that whatever Nibali does, Cadel Evans will do just moments later.
The never-ending rain must be particularly galling for the peloton's South American contingent – and in particular those Colombians who had been tipped to shine during the Giro's two weeks of mountains. As it is, most of the stages have either been shortened, altered or ridden at an enforced go-slow rate.
At one point, online betting patterns put Mark Cavendish as favourite for Sunday's stage to the Col du Galibier after rumours started to circulate that both the Galibier and the preceding climb of Mont Cenis were to be scrapped from the parcours.
With Nibali looking pretty much like he can canter to the overall victory in Brescia, most of the excitement has come from the battle for lesser places – and in particular the fight for the white jersey.
A string of second places has put Carlos Betancur into the white jersey at the expense of the exciting Pole Rafal Majka, while Vini Fantini's Mauro Santambrogio did the honourable thing in acting as a beacon for the main pack to follow during the misty ascent of the Jafferau.
Following his victory in stage 10, Rigoberto Uran has been very quiet indeed – even in the wake of being elevated as Sky's captain following Wiggins's departure.
One senses that neither Uran nor Evans has the power to put Nibali under any significant pressure – and you must remember that the Colombian's stage win only came about because he was allowed to zip clear given his then lesser standing within the grand scheme of things.
Besides, given Alexandre Vinokourov's management position at Astana, perhaps the roof of London 2012 silver medallist Uran's expectations is capped at finishing runner-up behind Nibali come next Sunday?
Dutch fans were once again dealt that Ge-sinking feeling when their 'eternal hope' from Blanco shipped four minutes on the Jafferau to complete his bi-annual drop down the standings of whichever Grand Tour he enters with the hope and expectation of a nation hanging round his narrow shoulders.
It was certainly a good week for Centurion Cavendish after his ton of professional wins took him back into the red jersey – while Stefano Pirazzi will be happy not to have had his own blue jersey prized off his back by a mob of angry Colombians.
Time for an alternative recap of the past six days before looking ahead to the remaining six days of action...
Stage 10: From Wet Wet Wet to Uran Uran
"Everything went perfectly for me and for the team," says Rigoberto Uran after he solos effortlessly to victory atop the Altopiano del Montasio while Sky team-mate Bradley Wiggins concedes more time in the battle for GC. At the end of the day, Wiggo trails Uran by one second on GC amid claims that the Colombain should take over as leader.
Defending champion Ryder Hesjedal trickles over the line almost 21 minutes down to end any lingering chances of retaining his Giro crown as Nibali extends his lead at the top. Carlos Betancur finishes second yet again – but this time doesn't celebrate so wildly.
Stage 11: Garmin sweetener from the Honey Bear
Ramunas Navardauskas drops Daniel Oss on the final climb of the day to solo to a much needed win for Garmin following the freefall of their man Hesjedal. The Canadian is seen punching his fist in celebration on hearing the news of Navardauskas's win, somewhere off the back of the main pack and alongside his makeshift walking stick for the week, Tom Danielson.
In other news, Frenchman Sylvain Georges tests positive for the stimulant Heptaminol – a vasodilator which helps relax the blood vessels and is sometimes used in the treatment of low blood pressure. The Ag2R-La Mondiale rider withdraws from the race of his own accord – and although he claims he only took the over-the-counter product because he had 'heavy legs', his team could now be ejected from the Dauphine in June.
Besides, most riders with heavy legs during this Giro would only have to take off and wring out their sodden leg warmers if they sought a bit of leg levity.
Stage 12: Cycling or synchronised swimming?
With the stage finishing in Treviso, the home of Pinarello bikes, Sky do a spot of impromptu PR by team time trialling into the finish. Unfortunately, their seven-man squad (minus the Colombians but including Wiggins) trundle home on their Pinarellos more than three minutes down on the stage winner, Sky outcast Mark Cavendish.
The Omega Pharma-Quick Step sprinter canters to a century, roaring to a routine bunch sprint win – his 100th scalp as a professional – after some brilliant climbing and descending in continued Apocalyptic conditions more conducive to synchronised swimming than cycling.
Funny that – because four of the five breakaway riders follow Maxim Belkov's lead and slide out on a slippery bend, with only Belgian journeyman Bert de Backer of Argos Shimano staying on his bike and hindering a full set of 10s from the judges.
Stage 13: Arrivederci Sir Bradley and Ryder
A chest infection (or, according to his critics, "smokers' cough") forces Wiggins to retire from the race, with an ill Hesjedal also following suit. With both men already looking forward to a spot of Froome-nobbling on the Tour de France, Cavendish gets his fourth win of the race thanks to some superb solo sprinting skills.
On the longest day of the race so far (ironically played out under sun and blue skies now that Brad and Ryder have flown home), OPQS swallow up a 13-minute breakaway advantage before Cavendish pulls the strings from distance in a clean bunch sprint (that's what you get when Nacer Bouhanni is no longer around).
Mistaking the finish town for the word 'Charrasco' (a Brazilian BBQ), the only Samba star in the peloton, Rafael Andriato, is one of the seven escapees seeking glory in Cherasco. Sweden's Tobias Ludvigsson was just 10 years old when two of his fellow fugitives – Danilo Hondo and Pablo Lastras – last won stages on the Giro, back in 2001.
Stage 14: Italians in the mist
With no live TV images until the last 400m of the deciding climb of Jafferau, frustrated spectators are on the edge of their seats until Vini Fantini finally provide justification of their garish fluorescent day-glow yellow jerseys after Mauro Santambrogio shines bright as he emerges like a beacon through the mist.
Hot on his heels is the equally illuminous Nibali, with an electric blue shorts and pink top combo. Together, like a Kazakh-style Battenberg cake on wheels, the duo scale the final hairpin bends before the maglia rosa magnanimously gifts the stage to his compatriot. A wise move given the earlier withdrawal of his collared team-mate Alessandro Vanotti – plus the growing talk of a Colombian alliance.
Stage 15: Visconti victorious in the snow
The irony of the Marco Pantani monument covered in a dusting of white snow is lost on most people – as is the fact that victory goes to a rider who sat out the close season while serving out a ban for dalliances with the dastardly doctor Michele Ferrari.
To his credit, Giovanni Visconti rides the entire last climb of the Grandes du Galibier solo, defying first rain, then snow, and then a bizarre Colombo-Polish four-way chase group (Niemiec & Majka with Betancur & Duarte). Taking second for the third time in the race atop a mountain, Carlos Betancur may decide to attack just that little bit earlier next time.
Saddles can hold his hands up and admit that his last predictions were complete and utter tosh. Gesink won no stage and is no longer in contention, Evans did not suffer the expected nosedive down the standings on the Galibier while Hesjedal, instead of turning things round with a win, was more Maypole Grief than Maple Leaf.
Cavendish did indeed win in Treviso but could not be denied by Degenkolb in Cherasco because the German Magnum P.I. had by then packed his bags with exhaustion. Samba rouleur Rafael Andriato was indeed inspired by the prospects of a Brazilian BBQ (or 'churrasco') but couldn't make his break last.
Worst of all was the assertion that Sky would have three riders in the top five – instead they have just two in the top 16 and one watching the race on the telly while rearranging his diary for the rest of the season.
In short, there's nothing Saddles can say now that will make him look even more of a cycling novice, so here goes nothing...
- Nibali will win the Giro with his Italian ally Santambrogio in second place and Evans third.
- The Colombian alliance will be a thing of wonder but on each occasion it will be thwarted at the last, leaving Betancur alone to pick up a flurry of second places and Uran to just miss out on a podium finish in Brescia.
- Any alliance will be immaterial because Nibali will win the mountain ITT on Thursday and build up an unassailable lead on GC.
- Nibali will also win the race's queen stage to Tre Cime di Lavaredo on Saturday.
- Cavendish will win two more stages on his way to the red jersey.
- Friday's stage with the Gavia and Stelvio will feature a break of grizzled Italian veterans including Garzelli and Scarponi. They'll be chasing down a group made up entirely of Colombians (plus Robert Gesink), but the move will be thwarted by token Italian Jose Serpa, who will infiltrate and then undermine. Lampre team-mate Scarponi won't be able to deliver, so Polish rider Przemycoleslaw Niemiec will rise to the occasion. Ciao!

The problem described here belongs to this line: http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/admin/options.py#L501
Actually, the initial_data for model forms on SelectMultipleWidget expects an iterable object like a list or tuple for selecting the choices, while instead we're passing a string - i.e. "12" - that get then divided in in "1" and "2". I thought this could be changed in something like string.split(',') but I can see this behaviour is not documented anywhere, so maybe some core dev has a better idea (or maybe this should be marked as wontfix?).

A little village in the Andes
"One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak." Wise words from Gilbert K. Chesterton and the sentiment is echoed by Sean Kennaway after his visit to a very special part of Peru…
"I travelled with Intrepid to a small community called Chawaytire in the Sacred Valley, about 2 hours outside of Cuzco. Chawaytire sits at about 3300m (10,830 feet) and has a population of around 600, whose primary source of income comes from selling textiles.
No to plastic and yes to trees
When you travel with Intrepid in Thailand, you will be given a very special cloth bag that is having multiple wonderful impacts, like helping grow forests and benefitting women's livelihoods! You may well ask "How so?"
Since 2006, Intrepid Thailand travellers each receive a special shoulder bag, emblazoned with the call to action "Say No to Plastic" in Thai and English. The bags are produced by a women's cooperative, Tae Moh Hai, meaning 'Our Friends Hands' in local dialect. The group live in a small village, Baan Sawaii, located in Sri Saket province, in north-eastern Thailand.
Epic partnership for our planet
We're delighted that the Shackleton Epic has chosen Fauna & Flora International (FFI) as a conservation partner. FFI protects threatened species and ecosystems worldwide, choosing solutions that are sustainable, based on sound science that take account of human needs. Older than the original Shackleton expedition, FFI was founded in 1903 and is the world's longest established international conservation body and is a registered charity.
Operating in more than 40 countries worldwide – mainly in the developing world – FFI saves species from extinction and habitats from destruction, while improving livelihoods of local people.
Helping 1.2 million in Africa
Mid last year the Horn of Africa was affected by one of the worst droughts in decades, with an estimated 12.4 million people in urgent need of food. We launched our Intrepid East Africa Drought Appeal through The Intrepid Foundation, and many of you responded to support Plan International's efforts to ensure emergency food relief and essential items were supplied to devastated communities in Ethiopia, Kenya and South Sudan.
So one year on, what has happened in those communities and how are they now?
Caring for mums in Indonesia
A big thank you to Intrepid's passionate group leaders around the world who play a vital role in inspiring travellers to care about and donate to projects supported by The Intrepid Foundation.
One of Intrepid Travel's longest serving group leaders, Sally Arnold, is passionate about The Intrepid Foundation's Indonesian project, Bumi Sehat, which has been making huge inroads to address maternal health issues…
Answering the call of the wild
"For 10 years, The Intrepid Foundation has been supporting WSPA. On behalf of ourselves and the animals, we are so grateful for everything that you have done for us.
The support has taken many forms. Intrepid's promotion of animal-friendly choices for travellers has made people more aware of animal welfare issues on a global scale. The joint 'Compassionate Traveller' initiative was an example of the partnership flourishing; a global education campaign about travellers making the best choices for animals.
A tasty change equation
At the foot of the majestic Mt Kilimanjaro is a wonderful program that is helping to revolutionise education using the 'sandwich' approach!
The Village Education Project Kilimanjaro (VEPK) has received support through The Intrepid Foundation for five years now and we are proud to help support their long term commitment to critical primary education. Katy Allen, VEPK's Director explains…
What inspires you to give?
Intrepid has long suspected that travel helps change the world and now we have the proof! We recently surveyed people who have donated to The Intrepid Foundation over the last 12 months* and almost 60% of respondents said that travelling in the country of the organisation they donated to was a big influence in them donating to The Intrepid Foundation.
An anonymous respondent puts it best, "Witnessing first-hand the huge difference that our support makes to the lives of young people and those most in need gives you a sense of 'doing something right' for our fellow human kind."
Nourishing hearts and minds
When we eat well, we know that our brain functions better and we can learn more effectively. That's one of the key reasons behind a wonderful high altitude greenhouse and nutrition program in the Andes, proudly supported by The Intrepid Foundation.
The Peruvian charity Living Heart is supporting remote, impoverished highland communities above the Sacred Valley in Peru. Their challenge is to continue to support over 2,500 vulnerable children and abandoned elderly women and men, to help provide a better quality of life and a brighter future.
1 million seedlings and more!
For over 10 years now Intrepid has been proud to support TreeProject, helping to tackle salinity and land degradation by putting native trees back on the land.
Sponsorship from The Intrepid Foundation provides TreeProject the means to train and build a support network for volunteers, who grow low cost indigenous seedlings for rural landholders and Landcare groups. They engage in revegetation projects that deal with the remediation of erosion, water quality and quantity, carbon sequestration and native species habitat. There is marvellous engagement with people of all ages and all walks of life, including school children, youth clubs, families, business people, retirees and people living in aged care facilities. De Grebner, TreeProject's Project Manager tells us more:

"Explore nature with the LEGO Friends in Olivia's Tree House!"
This is SilentMode with his first ever Reviewers Academy review. Over the next few days I will be reviewing not just one but six of the eleven sets in the new, somewhat controversial Friends theme aimed at the girls market. With the new theme comes many new parts and even new colours, and of course the new style of minifigures.
But will these sets live up to expectations? Will they sell as much as LEGO hope? More importantly, are these sets any good?
Let's kick things off with this first review of Olivia's Tree House: a makeshift nature observatory standing in some kind of park or open space, manned (or perhaps girled) by Olivia.
Olivia's Tree House
Set 3065
Release year: 2012
# of parts: 191
# of
Links: Brickset
More pictures in my Brickshelf folder.
This set, above all the others, was the one that stood out the most when I first saw the Friends theme on sale. I think it was because, while the other sets had an obvious feminine design, the tree house looked like it could be adapted for boys' use with the right colour scheme. Instead I bought two other sets (3188 and 3931) first, and purchased this one only a few hours ago.
The Box
Promotional sticker
Not sure if other countries have something like this, but in the UK Argos is having a LEGO Friends promotion: collect four "rewards stickers" from any of the Friends sets bought from Argos, and put them in a "BFF Rewards Book" (I am not making this up), and you can exchange them for a gift. I have no idea what this gift is, but ironically you have to be 18 or over to claim the gift...
Back of the box
The back of the box shows the play features of the tree house, as well as the anatomy of a Friends figure, the other main Friends characters and some of the sets they feature in. A common feature among the Friends sets is that the featured character (in this case Olivia) is shown on the top right.
Box shape
You may notice with the larger sets that the boxes have unusual curved sides to them. I'm wondering if this was something girls specifically asked for, or whether LEGO introduced it to distinguish these sets as being for girls. Apart from the unusual shape it gives the box, I don't think it really adds anything - but it's a neat trick.
If you ever wanted to keep and store the box, you'll be glad to know it folds flat.
The Contents
LEGO seems to be slipping back into its old ways with regards to packaging: compared to the length of the box there isn't much inside. We're presented with two numbered bags (which I think are too big for the contents, especially #1), a 16x16 Bright Green plate and the instructions.
The instructions
In case you were wondering, as I was, if we'd see Gewinne!son on the back of the instructions...
...No! Surprisingly or unsurprisingly Gewinne!son has been replaced with Gewinne!th, along with a radically different, Friends-themed design.
Beginnings of the instructions
The whole instruction book has the symbolic purple throughout, but is otherwise no different to any other instruction book. This first page shows how to put together one of these new figures.
The figure
While we're here, let's show the figure parts and what they look like put together.
This is all there is to a Friends figure: a hairpiece, a head, a torso and a pair of legs. Note the connection between the torso and the legs.
Here's Olivia assembled, and you might notice there's something wrong with this figure already. No? Well the front and back of the box shows Olivia wearing a hairband, but we don't see one here or included in the set. I can see this being an issue for some picky buyers, but there is also a picture at the front of the box - and on one of the sides - showing what the included figure looks like.
You might already know that Friends hairpieces can be worn on minifigures (and probably vice versa), which I thought was a very smart move on Lego's part. None of the other parts are interchangeable: you can't put a Friends head on a minifigure (the hole is too small), and you can't put a minifigure head on a Friends torso (the hole is too big). As might be obvious, you can't rotate a Friends figure's hands independently of the arms (Jack Stone style).
Minifigure with Friends figure hair
Here's a generic female minifigure demonstrating the compatibility of a Friends hairpiece, which is made of a rubber-like material. You'll notice a hole on the side: there are three such holes in the hairpiece - one on each side and on top - for attaching hair accessories.
Friends figure with some minifigure hairpieces
If you wanted to you could use minifigure hairpieces with a Friends figure. Some combinations will work better than others, and you're free to try just about anything to find the right look.
Let's have a look at some of these parts, because there's a lot of things to cover...
New colours
This particular set showcases two new colours for 2012, as shown with these parts. The blue is what BrickLink is calling Bright Light Blue: very slightly lighter than Medium Blue, and the same colour as the S6 Sleepyhead's clothes. The purple is what BrickLink is calling Medium Lavender.
I'm particularly happy about these colours because I remember wanting to see pastel colours in LEGO. I can't wait to see what else shows up in that purple colour.
Bright Pink and Medium Blue
A bunch of parts we wouldn't expect are now in Bright Pink and Medium Blue, as shown here. (The corner panels are Bright Light Blue, included to show just how similar they are to Medium Blue.) Most unusual of all are the pink SNOT bricks and "cheese" slopes, and the Medium Blue basket thing. Note the printed 1x1 Medium Blue brick, which represents a carton of cow's milk. (Huh?)
Making a welcome return to LEGO sets are flower parts in Dark Pink and Yellow... here's hoping Blue, and colours other than Red or White, come next. We also have the usual foliage parts in Green and Bright Green.
Here's why foliage is significant. After being brave enough to pose the question at this year's AFOLcon, I was told there were going to be new plant parts for 2012 (with the Friends theme, which at the time was unknown).
We know about the new plant stalk part (which will appear in S7), but never in a million years was did I expect these...
New flower parts
I first saw these parts on the box of set 3188, and I thought LEGO had lost their minds. Butterfly-shaped flowers?! Ladybirds?! I knew they were trying to make a girly theme, but this was taking the cake.
But a closer look made more sense: we have three different flower shapes, including roses. Those bugs aren't necessarily flowers either, but extra shapes one can use to decorate their MOCs. Someone is going to find these extremely useful, and probably very expensive.
You get four of each shape in the set, for a total of 20 new flower parts. However, for some strange reason, these are all counted as one part.
These new flower parts fit on plant stalks, but they're a very tight fit.
Also included in this set is a very "feminine" kitten, along with a bird that sits in a birdhouse. I didn't even realise there was a bird in the set until taking this picture.
Stars of the show
I picked these as the most desirable parts in the set. The Medium Lavender parts and Bright Pink SNOT bricks were no contest, while at least one of those birds has to be in just about any builder's collection. We also have 11 Medium Dark Flesh bricks to play with.
The Build
The very first thing the instructions show you how to build is this cat basket:
Cat basket
Personally I don't like this kitten: it was the primary reason why I didn't pick this set up first. I think the old Belville cat would go better in this set, but then again maybe girls prefer kittens.
The tree house, part 1
The remainder of bag #1 is for the base of the tree house, with our Bright Green plate coming into play.
For some reason the base incorporates a hiding place for jewels, which is what the Bright Light Blue container is for. Is there something Olivia isn't telling us? Maybe that this nature observatory thing is a front for something else?
The tree house, part 2
Bag #2 has the parts for the rest of the tree house.
All of a sudden the instructions hit you with this:
Seriously, they waited until now?! Well it's not too difficult to put these bits in, but they could easily have been introduced earlier.
What isn't made obvious at all on this page is that you'll end up with one ladybird piece left, which is used with the bird house.
The bird house
Here's the bird house with the tree house, and the remaining ladybird part.
The completed set
Olivia on another mission to save the world from the forces of not looking after animals.
Minifigure scale
This gives an idea of how big the tree house is compared to a minifigure.
Both Friends figures and minifigures are tall enough to reach the telescope. It's a little odd that the minifigure looks slightly older, despite being shorter.
Giving the bird its new home. Minifigures aren't that much shorter than Friends figures, and with the skirt piece they'd be just as tall, so there's the slim possibility of coexisting.
A lot less parts than I'd expected, but at least we have some cheese slopes.
The Verdict
I think this is a very good start for a girls-based LEGO theme; the build itself is similar to any other set, and there are no condescending juniorised parts (like in Belville). As mentioned before, it could easily be adapted for boys, or to some other theme, just by changing the colours of the parts. The only stand-out part is the figure, but the set's been designed so that the treehouse could be just as much for minifigures as it is for Friends figures.
The parts in this set are worth the price of entry, and there's plenty of them to warrant getting two or more of them for parting out. Those flower parts, and most likely the bird and Medium Lavender parts, are going to be in high demand - you just wait and see.
If there's one thing I don't like about the set, and one thing that put me off getting it in the first place, it's that darned cat. It could just as easily be replaced with a minifigure-style cat, or perhaps even the Belville cat. I don't even think the cat basket is necessary; if they're meant to be outdoors, I'd imagine the cat would use the opportunity to go wandering. At the same time, young girls (the target audience) might actually like it - and I suppose the cat ought to have somewhere to rest.
Design: 9/10
Very clever use of specific parts to create a tree-like structure, as well as the tree house itself. Colours could easily be substituted if it's not to your taste.
Build: 8/10
The only complication was placing 19 of the 20 new flower parts after the tree house was built; otherwise there was nothing difficult.
Parts: 8/10
A number of very useful MOC parts, with some in new and/or unusual colours; uses outside of the set may be limited however.
Playability: 8/10
Simple with room to play with the set as is, or to modify and even extend the tree house into whatever you want it to be.
Price: 7/10
Similar to Games: there could have been more parts for the price, but the new colours and parts in Bright Pink and Medium Blue come at a premium. If you see these discounted...
Based on these scores the Tree House gets a solid 8/10 - and one of these:
Stay tuned for more!

hes not my first choice arshavin but think it will bring out the best in paver. having a fellow country man there will help him and arshavin does have a touch of class about him , so it can only inprove the squad. another thought is distin( my spelling is terrible sorry) of pompey or glenn johnson at right back.???
Evening all.. Don't think we will have the funds for Arshavin. I did read somewhere we are after the Wolves kid in goal. Can't remember his name though. Mind you I also read we were after the young Welsh goalie also from Wolves, I think his name is Hennesey. Wolves obviously have a couple of quality young keepers at the moment. Perhaps we can tempt one to the Lane.

Ray Kane was born in Ireland. He was in the South African Police when Nelson Mandela was sentenced to life imprisonment on Robben Island in 1964.
In 1965, while hitchhiking through Tanzania en route to England, he crossed the path along which Che Guevara would lead his Cuban Brigade just three days later into the Congo and his first revolutionary defeat.
Kane's first novel, The Sowti Squad, was born of these two events.
Suspected of being a mercenary while hitchhiking through Juba, the Sudanese government arrested and deported Kane to Uganda. Hoping to continue his homeward journey by ship, Kane travelled through Uganda to Mombasa, Kenya's port on its Indian Ocean coastline. Fortune smiled on Kane. The Braemar Castle, en route from Cape Town to London, was in port and had just medevaced a broken-legged crewman back to Durban. There was a vacancy. Kane became Seaman Kane and worked as a steward on the luxury liner to Tilbury (London) docks.
Commissioned into the British Army in 1965, Ray Kane served in Germany and Libya. In 1968 he joined the Omani Army. Commissioned as a Captain, he was promoted Major after a year and served for a further two years as Red Company Commander, Desert Regiment, in the Dhofar War. He led the Red Company palace assault group which seized Sultan Said bin Taimur al-Busaidi on 23 July 1970, in the coup d'état which started Oman's renaissance, and in which Kane was wounded.
Leaving Red Company in 1972, Kane commanded Firqa Forces – Dhofari irregular tribesmen. He was "sacked on-the-spot", and quite rightly too, in Kane's opinion, by Colonel Mike "Oddjob" Harvey in May 1972, after playfully shooting-up the RAF Salalah (Dhofar) Officers' Mess and its open-air cinema.
Asked by a friend if he had been drunk, mad or both, Kane replied, 'Neither, I did it for the Craic.'
Ray Kane founded his security company, Trawl Services Ltd in, in 1982. He is divorced and has a son and four daughters.

A fast paced adventure tale, set in the African bush. The characters are colourful, the story exciting and daring. Thoroughly enjoyable reading!

Review by:
Peter M
on Jan. 05, 2011 :
In the 1960s, Che Guevara was in the Congo, fomenting revolution; further south, Nelson Mandela was serving a life sentence on Robben Island. The CIA's attempt to kill one and the South African's to abduct the other forms the plot of this action adventure novel – The Sowti Squad.
Combining brisk pace with detailed and graphic descriptions of savage mercenary warfare, the narrator's insertion of vignettes of actual history makes the whole novel utterly believable, as do the characters and dialogue. We are taken on a journey spanning America, Cuba, Congo and South Africa as the plot moves from conception through hatching to birth.
Unusually in an action thriller, some female characters are as hard and nasty (one is even nastier) as the men, a trait much appreciated by two girl friends of mine who'd read the print version, and who reckon it'll make fascinating reading for women readers.
There is, of course, a completely unexpected ending, as the Sowti Squad, whom the reader by now will want to survive, fight for their lives.

Definition of stop volley in English:
stop volley
A volley played close to the net whereby the player allows the racket to be knocked backwards by the ball and sends it only just back over the net.
Example sentences
- There was a beautiful stop volley, a shot so delicate that the ball barely seemed to contact the strings at all.
- If the shot has very little pace and/or excessive backspin, the stop volley will probably drop into the net.
- He plays a lunge stop volley which lands and spins back onto his side of the court.

Arizona State Sun Devils
Former ASU TE Tyrice Thompson dies from stab wounds
Tyrice Thompson, who played football at Arizona State from 2004 to 2007, died Saturday after being stabbed five times during a bar room altercation last Sunday.
Thompson, 27, was working as a bouncer at Martini Ranch in Scottsdale and was stabbed five times in the back, hip and arm after an altercation that started inside the establishment was moved outside. Thompson was transported to Scottsdale Health Care-Osborn.
Scottsdale Police arrested 26-year-old Ian MacDonald of Tempe after review of video surveillance gave them probable cause that he stabbed Thompson.
The South Mountain High School graduate started his Sun Devil career as a walk-on in 2004 and played in 46 games during his ASU career. As a senior in 2007, he caught 15 passes for 272 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown came in his last home game at Sun Devil Stadium against Arizona in a game ASU won, 20-17.
In August of 2008, Thompson signed as an undrafted free agent with the Indianapolis Colts but was later waived.

Koren, a second-half replacement for Jay Simpson, headed home Robbie Brady's cross in the 83rd minute after Ipswich substitute Anthony Wordsworth had cancelled out Brady's first-half penalty.
Victory for the Tigers lifts them six points clear of nearest challengers Watford, who slipped to a surprise defeat at Peterborough, with four games left to play.
Ipswich had lifted themselves clear of immediate relegation trouble with just one defeat in their previous eight matches, but they were overrun in the first half by Steve Bruce's side, who secured their 11th away win of the season.
Town had been restricted to one mis-hit shot from Michael Chopra before Hull took a 28th-minute lead through Brady's penalty.
Referee Oliver Langford pointed to the spot following Guirane N'Daw's challenge on David Meyler and Brady coolly side-footed the ball, left-footed, into the bottom corner.
Defender Abdoulaye Faye headed a corner straight at Ipswich goalkeeper Scott Loach, who then pulled off a fine save to keep out Brady's shot from outside the area and did well to hold George Boyd's angled effort from 12 yards.
Ipswich regrouped during the interval and after gaining an immediate foothold after the restart the home side struck a 55th-minute equaliser with their first attack on goal.
Defender Luke Chambers broke forward down the right and his cross was met by Wordsworth, who steered his header into the bottom corner from six yards.
Visiting goalkeeper David Stockdale saved brilliantly to keep out Daryl Murphy's thumping shot from inside the area and just as it appeared Ipswich had done enough to earn a point, Koren ghosted in to head home Brady's cross with seven minutes left.

I asked about canceling, and he said it would be easy breezy... and if I wanted I could always just put a hold on the account for a few months, no problem. Next thing I know I had a contract in front of me... but since he was one foot out the door already and needed to run, I did take the time (shame on me) to see buried in the contract that technically this is a year commitment, and an early termination fee is $100 (with a three day grace period. three days).
In the scheme of scams, this isn't "the worst" by any means, but the sales tactics are designed to make you overlook the cancellation fee and not make you realize you are obligating yourself to a year contract. Fool me once, shame on me. But this is your first warning people... so fool you twice, then shame on you. Be careful with DS Waters.

Gabe Rosado on Canelo-Trout, Eyes Ishe Smith, More
By Chris Robinson
This past weekend in Detroit, Michigan, Las Vegas native Ishe Smith finally realized his full potential in wrestling the IBF junior middleweight title away from Cornelius 'K9' Bundrage after twelve rounds of action.
Despite the scorecards ending up with a split-decision verdict, Smith clearly was the victor, as evidenced by his grit, fortitude, and better work rate over the second half of the fight.
One man who was certainly a curious spectator was junior middleweight contender Gabriel Rosado.
Rosado is a month removed from a bloody and brave showing against WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin in New York. Despite ultimately suffering a loss that evening, as his corner elected to call the action largely due to a pair of cuts above his left eye, Rosado is still upbeat about his future aspirations and is adamant on facing the best at 154 pounds.
Continue reading below for some highlights from my conversation with the Philadelphia native…
Watching Ishe Smith defeat Cornelius Bundrage…
"It was an OK fight. I felt K9 was real slow. I thought Ishe was probably a little too tense. I mean, he did enough to pull the fight out. I thought he fought a little tense, but he did what he had to do. He got the win."
More than willing to face Smith…
"Of course. Anyone that has a title is definitely a fight I would want. Because, I definitely want to capture a world title. But I'd definitely like to get that fight. There was a fight where I turned down my #1 eliminator fight, and he ended up getting the K9 fight. I felt it was a mistake on K9's part, fighting Smith. I had Smith winning that fight when I first found out they were going to fight. But I definitely like that fight."
Reflecting on his time in the ring with Gennady Golovkin…
"You know, I felt that fight was just a situation where I got cut so early in the fight. It wasn't just one cut; it was two cuts on the same eye. It just made it that much worse. I feel that he's not hype. He is the real deal. I felt like it could have been a different type of fight if I wasn't pretty fighting blind with so much blood. Because, [Golovkin] usually hits guys and they are out. I felt like he was fading a little bit, but as he was fading, the blood was just a little too much. To the point where I couldn't see. I think if I didn't have to go through that, I think the outcome would have been different. Because the whole thing was to come on strong in the later rounds, because he probably was throwing so many shots in the beginning of the fight."
A bittersweet feeling…
"But it's just the way things happen. And the fans appreciate my effort and they saw I was fighting through the blood and wouldn't quit. It's a fight where even though I lost it's kind of bittersweet, because I got a lot of respect from the fans. And I don't think it's a fight that hurt me. I'll be back stronger than ever. Everything happens for a reason."
Thoughts on a proposed Saul Alvarez-Austin Trout showdown on May 4th…
"I would like Austin Trout to win that fight, because Trout's the underdog. I'm the underdog, so I'm always rooting for the underdog. If I had to bet on it, I would put my money on Canelo. But I'm rooting for Trout. But there are things that I saw in the Cotto fight that Cotto pulled off that a younger, strong fighter in Canelo was going to take advantage of. Cotto was just a bit off, slow; he seemed a little bit washed up. Not the same Cotto from the past. I feel like a guy like Canelo is definitely going to take advantage of the mistakes that Austin Trout made in the fight with Cotto. And I feel that Austin Trout is definitely the harder puncher. The key to that fight is, I see Trout giving him a little trouble in the early fight, then I see Canelo closing the distance and landing that left hook to the body and slowing Trout down."
Rosado said Trout is the harder puncher? He's also saying a very inexperienced fighter who has fought NO ONE near Trout's level will be able to exploit things that a seasoned fighter like Cotto couldn't do? Do we even know…Comment by .:: JSFD26 ::. on 02-25-2013

Over the years, I've been fortunate to work with some incredible leaders. Here are 7 habits, which are common to all of them:
Tip: Here are 21 Powerful habits behind highly successful business owners!
July 29, 2014
Jim Connolly
Tammy was shocked when she emailed me today.
She explained that she had been following a business expert on Twitter for years. Then today, he suddenly aged by around 15 years!
Of course, the guy is just a day older today, than he was yesterday. The thing is, he'd been using the same photo on his online profiles for the past decade and, apparently, it was a few years old when he started using it. Yesterday, he decided to update his profile photo and like all of us, he looks very different than he did back in the late 1990′s.
He has told his Twitter followers he needed to change the photo, as he was tired of people not knowing who he was, when he met them face to face for the first time.
[I wrote about ageing online here: To age online or not to age, that is the question!]
The issue this guy now has, is that his brand is strongly associated with an image, which no longer exists. By failing to invest in a professional logo and failing to update his profile photo every year or two, he's facing a totally unnecessary challenge.
However, until recently, business owners were connected to people who either saw them pretty regularly or who were seeing them for the first time.
In the digital age, we are represented online by photographs, which are a snapshot of how we looked when the photo was taken. If these are seldom updated, we risk facing the same problem the business expert now has.
If you do not already, consider updating your profile photos and avatars every year or so.
Even better, invest in a professional logo and use the logo alongside your picture. This allows you to change your photo, with the continuity of your branding intact.
Tip: Here's a great video about what makes a logo memorable and valuable!

Here's a quick tip, to improve the effectiveness of your marketing. It's all about a word you use, which is negatively impacting how people feel about your business.
People are hard-wired to fear change.
We know that change, good or bad, is a source of stress. Even something as positive as the change that comes from getting married, buying a new home or setting off for a week in the sun, is a cause of stress.
Because of the negative way people feel when confronted with change, it makes sense to remove the word from your marketing. Don't worry, I am going to give you a massively more powerful, motivating alternative!
Whenever possible, use the word improve, rather than change. Improve, is a positive word. It's an attractive word too, because we are always looking for something better.
For example, look how the phrase below becomes far more powerful, when change is replaced with improve.
"This copywriting tip will change your marketing results."
"This copywriting tip will improve your marketing results."
"This copywriting tip will change your marketing results."
"This copywriting tip will improve your marketing results."
Your prospective clients or customers fear change, but want things to improve. So, stop offering them what they fear and give them what they want!
Tip: Here are over 180 posts, related to copywriting and content marketing. Enjoy!

If not, what story are you telling yourself, which is motivating you to do less than you're capable of?
Tell yourself a more empowering story. Choose to give everything you do your very best shot. Then, do the same tomorrow.
The world deserves to see what you are truly capable of… not a cranked-down version of your amazing self.
Could this mindset have a direct, positive impact on your business and your life? Yes. Yes it could!

Your next 10 clients will usually be a lot like the previous 10. They will pay you a similar fee, have similar requirements and expect a similar level of service too.
That's great news if you already attract high value, high profit clients. It's not such great news, if you tend to attract fee sensitive, average clients.
If you want to build a more valuable client list, start today by getting specific about the type of clients you want to work with. When you have done that, consider the following:
As service providers, we have the freedom to choose who we work with. Deliberately selecting the kind of clients we want, in advance, is the key to building a highly valuable client base.
In every sense, it pays to choose wisely.

Leigh asked me a great question yesterday. She wanted to know why her newsletter, which has over 5000 subscribers, generates very few client inquiries for her consultancy.
As Leigh was making a mistake, common to lots of newsletter publishers and bloggers, I thought I'd share my answer with you.
The root cause of Leigh's problem, is that she is doing everything possible to build her list. This is the mantra of pretty-much every content marketing guru and newsletter / blogging course out there.
It's also total, utter bullshit.
If the purpose of your newsletter or blog is to generate business leads from prospective clients, then your focus should be on quality, not quantity. It's about building meaningful, deep relationships with the right people, not shallow relationships, with a wide, vague readership.
For example: If you have just 50 engaged subscribers, who value your newsletter or blog and are a perfect fit for your services, you have a valuable list.
If, like Leigh, you have 5000 poorly-targeted people on a list, who you gained using list building techniques, you're wasting your time and money.
For example: If you have just 50 engaged subscribers, who value your newsletter or blog and are a perfect fit for your services, you have a valuable list.
If, like Leigh, you have 5000 poorly-targeted people on a list, who you gained using list building techniques, you're wasting your time and money.
Get out of the list building mindset. Stop chasing the wrong numbers.
Instead, focus exclusively on earning the attention of your prospective clients. Learn about their most pressing challenges. Then, publish answers and ideas, which will help them. Become a valuable asset, before they need your services.
If you get too few client inquiries from your newsletter or blog, it's probably because you're building a list, rather than creating connections with prospective clients.
In short: Go deeper. Not wider.

I could not find the correct location for this review, so this is close enough. This review is for this coin, but in a slab graded a MS69. I have made many purchases from the site without an issue. I purchased this coin (MS69) via APMEX eBay. I received this slab and it looked like a dog chewed on it. There is a rather large chip on the side and a small crack as well. I would not of had an issue with this if it was described properly, but it was not. Not sure if I would have purchased it if I had known ahead of time. APMEX did not indicate this in the description. The coin itself looks nice though. I think the bird design, yet simple is elegant.

Doha: Commercialbank of Qatar, the largest private sector bank in Qatar, has signed a strategic partnership with the London Metropolitan Business School (LMBS). The partnership sets down the roots of a new Doha-based Training Academy which will provide invaluable training and development opportunities to employees of the Bank.
This strategic partnership will cater for employees at all stages of their career path leading the way in developing talent who will play an active role in the Bank and the future of Qatar.
The signing was attended by Andrew Stevens, GCEO Commercialbank; Professor Malcolm Gillies, Vice-Chancellor of London Metropolitan University; Andy Inglis, Associate Director; Frank McKenna, Business Development Director and Abduljalil M Borhani, Executive General Manager Corporate Banking from Commercialbank. Also in attendance were Mark Ellam, Director of Trade and Investments at the British Embassy and the first batch of management trainees from Commercialbank.
The London Metropolitan Business School, which is based in one of the world's most thriving financial centres, is renowned for its excellence and brings to the table over a hundred years experience in financial related teaching.
The partnership will strategically enhance the nationalisation drive of Commercialbank by ensuring that Qataris within the Bank are trained to lead the way in the banking sector in one of the world's fastest growing economies.
The Training Academy, which will be supervised and developed by LMBS, will bring together professional development, Certificate, Diploma and eventually, Masters programmes, tailored to the needs of the Bank's management trainees and executive leadership staff. This will start with basic banking training for fresh recruits through to a two year programme for middle management and culminating in a one year Executive Leadership Programme to nurture high flying Qataris for senior leadership roles within the Bank. Adding to the Academy's training programmes will be a Summer School held at LMBS, the largest business school in the City of London.
Attending the signing, Malcolm Gillies, Vice-Chancellor of LMBS underscored the significance of the event
"This brings together the Bank's great experience in financial services and the University's expertise in business, management and financial education."
"There is a voracious market for talent and we all have an obligation to extend the skills of our staff as far as possible. We are delighted to welcome the first cohort of students and look forward to a productive relationship ahead."

Hey there,
When automatic live blogging updates are set to "poll" (the default) - conflicts appear with the plugin "Blackbird Pie".
Blackbird Pie allows you to embed specific tweets inside blog posts, something which is very useful when liveblogging events. The plugin does this through shortcodes, eg:
[blackbirdpie id="133072907701194752"]
The issues which arises is this:
When a blackbirdpie shortcode is embedded within a live blog entry, upon the first page load the tweet appears (correctly) - however when the ajax call runs to check for new entries, the embed breaks, and the shortcode appears in plaintext - not displaying the actual tweet.
So when you load the page for the first time - you see all embedded tweets, however after 25 seconds (or whatever the interval is set to) they all disappear and are replaced with plaintext shortcodes.
Can you help? :)

Rams Show Promise And Hope For Future, But 2014 Ends As Many Others HaveThe St. Louis Rams did not have an awful season in 2014, but a 6-10 record isn't what they were hoping for.
