Like many advanced technologies, the field of regenerative medicine has gone from boom to nearly bust to boom again in the span of just 30 years. Today, there are over 55 regenerative medicine products on the market focused on diverse therapeutic areas, including repair of skin/soft tissue, wound care, cardiology, oncology, and diabetes.i Thirty years in, regenerative medicine has truly "come of age," the result of a tenacious pursuit to translate groundbreaking research into therapeutic products and overcome initial setbacks that almost derailed this critical new medical approach.
Yet while the past decade's focus on scientific advances and business fundamentals has propelled regenerative medicine forward, I believe this is just the start. By reflecting on the successes and lessons learned over the past three decades, we can begin to chart a roadmap for the future that will help to ensure that regenerative medicine continues to deliver important new treatments for patients, while creating sustainable value for shareholders.
From its origins in the mid-1980s, regenerative medicine was greeted with the kind of extreme excitement that has accompanied other potential breakthroughs, including monoclonal antibodies and RNA interference. By the year 2000, more than a decade after the first companies were formed, regenerative medicine companies were valued at over $2.6 billionii, TIME named tissue engineering one of the hottest jobs for the 21st century, and Barron's predicted it would become a $100 billion industry. A few years later, the bubble had burst, and company valuations plummeted to a tenth of their year 2000-high.ii
Several factors contributed to these setbacks. First, like many new medical advances, expectations far exceeded reality. Investors and the media saw incredible promise in early research, and unrealistic timelines were set for when a product could be on the market. Second, the initial regenerative medicine products to reach the market had limited commercial success, as the few companies in the space had not yet understood all that was required to achieve both clinical and commercial success. From a scientific perspective, the field was poised to deliver, but it had not yet developed the regulatory, business, and commercial expertise required for long-term success.
In the wake of these setbacks, there came a clear understanding of what was needed to propel regenerative medicine forward and strike the appropriate balance between promise and reality. When I joined Organogenesis in 2003, the company was emerging from bankruptcy and a dissolved commercial partnership with big pharma. In the decade since, I have experienced firsthand the rebirth of our company, and on a larger scale, of the regenerative medicine field itself. Our path over the past decade has taught us several lessons about what it will take to succeed in this space going forward. In the years ahead, I believe the regenerative medicine field will continue to grow and adapt in the following ways:
As our healthcare system faces an aging population and an increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, regenerative medicine will continue to play an increasingly important role in patient care, particularly where we offer therapies that deliver benefits that elude traditional drugs, devices, and surgery. Our unique ability to harness the body's own healing processes in a safe and targeted manner means that we will play an increasingly important role in the management of difficult-to-treat diseases. More than 17,000 patients are expected to be involved in regenerative medicine-related clinical trials,i demonstrating that the pipeline of therapies on the horizon continues to expand.
Now that the first living allogeneic cell-based therapy (GINTUIT) has been approved through the FDA via CBER, we have achieved a major milestone: the first step in establishing consistent approval pathways. This clarity is critical to ensuring that a high level of scientific and clinical integrity is applied to all regenerative medicine products, which in turn will provide a clear differentiation from the growing number of unproven products that are flooding the market today with dubious claims that are unsubstantiated by rigorous clinical research. This is an important step in the continued maturation of the field, and a key value-driver for industry as we work to demonstrate the value of our therapies for physicians, patients, and payors alike.

Hey-O! GundamBen here with some more tips on fixin those annoying elbows for all your Duke body types and green-shirts. I'll discuss how you can get more articulation out of your figures. This is not a hard fix to accomplish, only dangerous part about is you have to handle a blade. The tools are simple all you need is your trusty hobby knife and the tools from the previous boiling joe method. First off you need to remove the lower limbs and that can be achieved by boiling/heating them up till their soft and can be pulled apart. Once you have them separated you can now make your incision to the arm (look at the picture for exact area to cut)
After you make your first initial cut you may need to do some extra trim work to make the bicep look rounded. This isn't too hard and shouldn't be hard to mess up the arm just keep in mind that when your making your cuts that you DO NOT cut past the hole that the arm peg fits back into. Just cut around the arm socket and it will turn out great.
Also just a little tip as well, I don't know how many of you like making your joes more life-like or better holding their weapons instead of just having a gun in his hand
you can have him actually holding the gun with his itchy trigger finger ready.
This is really really easy to do and takes less than a second to accomplish. Just take your hobby knife and get it between his pointer finger and middle finger, (remember this is soft plastic the knife will cut right trough it) carefully guide the knife and make sure not to cut into either of the fingers but right down between them. I usually do this for alot of my joes because I get tired of just seeing them "hold" their guns I want them lookin like they are ready to fire.
Ok well hopefully this was yet again helpful to you joe customizers out there. Again if you have questions please feel free to pick my brain

Hall of Fame broadcaster Rick Jeanneret made the trip to Washington with the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday and will return to his custormary spot in the broadcast booth for this afternoon's game against the Washington Capitals in the Verizon Center.
Jeanneret missed the first four games of the season due to an undisclosed illness. He was honored in November by the Hockey Hall of Fame with the Foster Hewitt Memorial Award for broadcast excellence and was expected to do the Sabres' entire schedule this season when it was still an 82-game slate. Jeanneret, who started working for the team in 1971, worked about 65 games last season, taking some trips off to cut down on his travel schedule.
After the lockout ended, Jeanneret's deal was expected to consist of the entire 48-game schedule of the shortened season. But the Sabres announced two hours before last Sunday's season opener against Philadelphia that Jeanneret was ill and unavailable to work. Paul Hamilton called that game and Kevin Sylvester worked in Jeanneret's place for the last three.
Jeanneret will join Rob Ray on the call for MSG and WGR Radio. In home games this year, Jeanneret will work from his usual spot in the press box while Ray will work from ice level between the benches. Ray will work some road games from the press box.
The talent-laden Washington Capitals have been one of the big disappointments of the NHL's first week of play. They enter today's game against the Sabres at 0-3-1, their worst start since dropping their first six games in 1993.
Through games Friday the Caps had the league's worst goal differential (17-8). They got their first point in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to New Jersey, rallying from a 2-0 deficit.
Winger Alex Ovechkin, who had 38 goals last season and has averaged 48.4 in his first seven campaigns, has just one assist.
"I think he needs a couple goals to relax and let it happen," new Caps coach Adam Oates told reporters after practice Saturday in Arlington, Va.
The Caps are having major special teams problems. They're just 3 for 20 on the power play in the four games and have killed only 16 of 24 penalties, leaving them 22nd in PP percentage in the NHL before Saturday's games and 26th in penalty killing.
Goaltending has been a sore spot for the Caps. Michal Neuvirth played well Friday and will start again today. He's 0-1-1, 3.36, .877. Braden Holtby is 0-2, 5.04, .863.
Sabres coach Lindy Ruff had a brief chat Saturday morning with Thomas Vanek about the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty Vanek drew in the first period Friday night against Carolina. Vanek, was penalized for slashing — the league has placed new emphasis on players not using their stick on an opponent's hands — and was given an extra two minutes for directing what appeared to be a profanity at an official.
Vanek takes a nightly beating in front of opponents' nets and told his coach he thought he's taken many more shots worse than the one he gave out. Ruff grew frustrated last season with a rash of penalties Vanek took, especially in the offensive zone, and said he doesn't want to see his star winger get disgruntled by officiating.
"I don't think we can control that. That was a discussion Thomas and I had this morning," Ruff said. "We can't control that part. He can only control what he's responsible for. If somebody else isn't getting called, we can't control that.
"We want to get away from that part. We dealt with that last year. We had a great conversation this morning about the penalties. Let's not worry about what the opposition is getting or not getting. I told him, 'You're off to a fabulous start. Let's make sure that doesn't creep into the game.' "

*they both already went through the toughest stages of puberty and nobody knows what will happen to Yulia's body next year.
besides Tuk has alarming weight issues and Adelina is a headcase so I don't think Julia is out of the running, it will depend on next Season as who is the most successful in GP , Nationals and Euros
so she should get more experience too.
the one just has a shorter time, elements, also junior worlds were much more strict compared to senior worlds where the scores were handed out like free candies. but how they performed the three are equal
I have nothing against Yulia, she's great, but if she grows just a what will happen to her jumps and how will she deal with the pressure of being the front lady for the Russian team at the the most important events in 4 years?
Russia is sending her best team out there, unlike last year...I guess they really want that team medal...
I want Menshov to beat Kovtun as marked by international judges...if only to see the look on the Russian Fed's collective red faces. I wonder what fresh excuses Tarasova would come up with then!
Has the US announced their Team yet?
I really like Kanako but I won't deny I am very happy Akiko is on team Japan and I will get to see
her programs skated one more time. I love this competition it is so much fun for the fans and for the skaters.
It is so nice to see the team spirit and support the teams give to each other, Last year the K&C antics were a blast!
I remember Dai saying that he was Captain in name only and that it was Akiko who was the real boss. lol
Team Russia is very strong. Good for Adelina and Liza for making the team.
That's how it worksOriginally Posted by demarinis5
I'm very glad to see both Adelina and Liza on the russian team! I hope they'll do great after both might be a little disappointed with their world's performances.
Suprised that there's no Kanako, but hopefully Akiko will have an amazing event.
Akiko had a very strong showing at 4CC, that should have placed her around 5th at worlds, maybe 4th. The only person out of the worlds top 4 to be at WTT is Mao... so Akiko can definitly place 2nd.
IF V/M indeed will not compete, we all know Moir's big mouth
and probably can't take another loss to D/W

According to Credit Suisse:Apple has an 85% share of the $500+ market and a 50% share of the $400+ market, but nothing to speak of, before the 3GS price cut, in the $250-$400 range.The $250-$400 slice of smartphone market is expected to grow 80% over the next four years, from 119 million to 213 million.Apple is well positioned to capture 25% of that market, putting more pressure on competitors whose margins are already being squeezed.HTC and Samsung are the most exposed, with a 22% and 20% share, respectively, of the $250-$400 market.The impact, according to this report, could be most severe on Research in Motion (RIMM) "given ongoing concerns around its product portfolio."On Monday, Credit Suisse lowered its price target for RIM from $30 to $20.Its price target for Apple is $500.

Looking for a new game is overwhelming if you are just hoping for the right mixture of addictive and challenging fun to just pop out at you on the Google Play Store. The good news is there is plenty of variation available. The bad news is that the same variety is overwhelming. How should you know if that new game is going to overdeliver and underpromise, or just fail to impress at every angle?
You do not need to work to find a game. Instead, read this list, and reap the benefits of the work we have provided for you. Save your time for playing games, not in downloading lemons. We offer the variety that makes a game for every taste available right here, from matching three games to the best of the Android RPG selection.
The 6 Best Android Games
Alphabear is a simple game that still provides plenty of fun. The concept is simple in that the letters reveal themselves one by one, gradually onto the playing field. Though, the challenge is that each letter has a timer. As the letters' timers run out they turn into stones to block your path to the big payoff bonus points.
Timed mode challenges force you to work quickly. You also have the option for playing on a big board to provide a different kind of challenge. In return for solving more difficult boards, you will receive not only a huge score but will receive a rare bear as a reward. Part of the game involves collecting cuddly bears that provide a boasting of big points.
PixWords is free, fast moving, and challenging. It is a great way to increase your vocabulary and provides a solid puzzle challenge that is available in 22 different languages. It is a crossword puzzle stuck inside a picture. The challenge is to solve all the words. As you do so, new letters are revealed to you, until the whole word is unveiled. This is a game of patience and perseverance but provides a payoff for word lovers.You can also find cheats online pixwordshelp.org but you can also find cheats in other supported languages, for example in Romanian language, french, greek etc
Plants vs Zombies is addictive and sets you in the zombie apocalypse. The antidote to the zombie invasion is a garden. Specifically, the foods that protect you start with a barrage of peashooters and sunflowers. Flora turrets toss flames and launch melons so that the zombies have no chance at winning. Grow the plants while fending off the zombies, until your plants are ready to shoot them off.
Jetpack Joyride. A "Do Not Steal" sign is posted next to the jetpack prototype in the top-secret lab that tempts you into action, flying off. You are Barry Steakfries and bust into the lab's wall for a freeing but majorly destructive path of fun and mayhem.
It's an endless runner game with plenty of vertical movement. You will be challenged to collect coins that are floating, and need that vertical movement to grab the coins. Electrified gates require you to weave around while avoiding missiles. The game gets even better when you find power-up vehicles. A metal slugesque mech and Mr. Cuddles, a friendly and large dragon are part of the fun party.
Building Boats You must, for it is in the game's title. YMBAB gives you a dinghy replete with a skeleton and a zombie. By the end of the game, you will have built a cruiser that you happily captain. Game progression proceeds with successfully and quickly working through the match-three puzzles.
During the gameplay, you will be challenged to manipulate entire columns and rows, not the individual tiles. You have the challenge of time against you. The 2D dungeon sits atop the screen and you must line combinations up at a good speed to prevent monsters from overtaking your gameplay. You do get to recruit your own new monster crew, as to dispose of the zombie and skeleton. It's pretty imaginative and fun for a simple concept that's available for play on your phone or tablet and other devices.

Detectives in York want to question Malcolm Bull, 18, in connection with Tuesday's fatal shooting of Edward Green.
Green, 46, was shot in an apparent carjacking in the 400 block of West Princess Street, police said.
When two men approached his car, he got out and ran away, police said. The men chased Green and shot him multiple times, they said. He died while in surgery at York Hospital.
Green's car, which was taken from the shooting scene, is a 2007 white Toyota Camry with a Pennsylvania registration of HFY 3684.
Bull faces an attempted homicide charge and firearms violations in a separate shooting that happened Monday afternoon at the intersection of Roosevelt Avenue and Lincoln Street, police said.

It wasn't that long ago when one of every seven Buffalo police officers was out on leave because of on-the-job injuries.
Even worse, some were suspected of scamming the system.
Eighteen months later and after a crackdown of sorts that included the high-profile prosecution of two Buffalo cops, the number of officers on leave is down 70 percent.
What that means in numbers and bodies is that 82 officers have returned to work or retired. All told, those officers represent more than $6 million in pay and benefits.
"Something was wrong," said Buffalo Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda. "There was a time when we had no idea why people were off or when they were coming back."
In July of last year, Derenda, at the direction of Mayor Byron W. Brown, set out to correct what city officials say was one of the highest injured-on-duty rates in the state.
It was an effort that resulted in a series of reforms within the department and an ongoing FBI investigation into officers suspected of abusing the system.
"There was a temptation to just remain injured on duty," said U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul Jr., "but if officers are fit for duty, they should report."
Even more important than the prosecutions, perhaps, is a new arbitration process that allows for injured-on-duty cases, especially those involving conflicting medical opinions, to go before a neutral third party.
The Buffalo Police Benevolent Association agreed to the process and in return received a guarantee from the city that injured officers will receive quicker evaluation and treatment.
In the past, it wasn't unusual for officers to wait months for the city to order diagnostic tests and begin medical care.
"The PBA stepping up to the plate helped to block the logjam on this issue, and I think both sides are now moving in the right direction," said Thomas H. Burton, a lawyer for the union. "But in my eyes, what's even more important is ensuring that officers who are injured promptly get the treatment they need to get back on the job."
In Hochul's eyes, one of the biggest causes behind the sky-high caseload was New York State's benevolent approach to officers injured on the job.
Not only do they get a paycheck, their pay is untaxed.
Hochul says the extra income – an officer injured on duty can see his paycheck increase by more than 30 percent – has served as incentive for mischief and abuse.
He also thinks his office's prosecution of officers accused of falsely posing as injured cops – two are facing charges, and Derenda says more are coming – has sent a message to every officer on leave and helped to drive down the number of injured-on-duty cases.
"There's a strong correlation," said Christopher M. Piehota, special agent in charge of the Buffalo FBI office. "People now know this is a problem the Buffalo Police Department wants to address, the FBI is willing to investigate and the U.S. Attorney's Office is willing to prosecute."
Of the 82 officers who are no longer on leave, more than half have retired, some of them with disability pensions.
The rest have either returned to full duty or been assigned to light duty, such as desk work.
Derenda and Brown are careful to note that not all officers are abusing the system and that those who are legitimately injured on duty deserve everything the department can do for them.
"We understand it's a very dangerous job," Brown said, "and in no way, shape or form do we believe that all officers on IOD are doing the wrong thing,"
He and Derenda, however, draw the line at those who are cheating the system.
"Some are probably nervous and should be," Derenda said of the officers who are retiring.
The high number of officers injured on duty came to light last year and took on an even greater urgency when federal prosecutors charged Robert Quintana and Patrick S. O'Mara with fraud in May.
The two officers – O'Mara is now retired – are accused of faking their injuries as part of scheme to cheat the city. O'Mara and Quintana, a former Common Council member, had been out on leave for seven years.
"He has indicated he is not guilty of any of these charges," Barry Covert, Quintana's attorney, said at the time of Quintana's arrest, "and he looks forward to being able to defend himself."
Hochul thinks the Quintana and O'Mara cases sent a clear message to rank-and-file officers that Derenda is serious about cracking down on injured-on-duty abuse.
Even more importantly, he said, that message contributed to the dramatic drop in officers on leave and the corresponding increase in officers on the street. He also thinks it will save the city money in overtime.
"This is a win for taxpayers," Hochul said. "It's also a win for the other officers who patrol the streets and for the residents who depend on good police protection."
Derenda said Brown had those goals in mind when he directed him to review the injured-on-duty system with an eye toward reforming it.
The result was a new case management system that emphasized quicker evaluation and treatment for officers on leave, as well as a new system of handling conflicting medical opinions.
The city also is using a new doctor, as well as a Buffalo police officer who is a nurse, to monitor cases.
Brown says the results – the numbers of officers on leave is down to 34 from a high of 116 – speak for themselves.
"From a public safety perspective, to get those officers back on the job is critically important," he said.
Burton is quick to point out the police union brought about the biggest reform – an arbitration process that has so far resulted in at least 30 cases being resolved.
The process, he said, has helped put an end to a treatment and evaluation system that was haphazard at best.
"In the past, how you were treated with an on-duty injury was whimsical," he said.
Burton said the next logical step is for the city and the union to work together so they can better understand why these injuries take place.
"The fact that these cases are being resolved is good," he said. "The next step is to look at what causes these injuries and how to prevent them."

LISBON - First Congressman Bill Johnson's campaign accused Charlie Wilson of making false statements against Johnson in Wilson's bid to potentially unseat the man who knocked him out of office two years earlier.
Wilson's campaign this week made their own claims of false statements by the Johnson campaign.
In a press release on Monday, Wilson campaign manager JR Starrett said the first press release last week from Johnson's campaign had two false statements.
"Congressman Johnson's campaign has made false statement in an effort to inflate the truth," said Starrett in Monday's release. "This is nothing but political theater and the constituents of the 6th Congressional District deserve more."
The first, which was left out of the story in the Morning Journal, claimed that if the full panel of the Ohio Elections Commission would find Wilson guilty of making false statements, "the violation is a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail."
Johnson campaign spokesman Mark Weaver stood behind the statement on Monday. He pointed out all violations in the section of the Ohio Revised Code that they are accusing Wilson of violating are first degree misdemeanors punishable up to six months in jail.
The second claim Wilson's campaign is calling foul is the claim by the Johnson campaign that Wilson was served with a subpoena. After checking with Starrett, the Journal had reported as of Friday Starrett denied Wilson had yet to receiving a subpoena.
Weaver said their press release actually said a deposition subpoena, which is issued by lawyers seeking statements in a case. He continues to contend Wilson has been issued a deposition subpoena.
The initial claim by Johnson's campaign of false statements by Wilson's campaign was based on an advertisement where Wilson claimed Johnson voted to kill Medicare. Starrett continues to claim Johnson voted to kill Medicare "as we know it." He claims the advertisement was actually a YouTube advertisement, which may not be held to the same standards as television advertisements.
However, a press release issued by Starrett on Sept. 10 calls the advertisement a TV ad.
The two campaigns now each claim the other has been called before the Ohio Elections Commission. Wilson reportedly went before a four-person panel, which last week unanimously found probable cause to send the matter to the full panel. Now Wilson's staff is reporting Johnson will be called before a three-person panel on this morning.
"On Wednesday, we'll be pointing all these things out," Weaver said standing by the truthfulness of Johnson's campaign.

We elect candidates to public office to solve problems -- not create them.
Commissioner Terry Tomassetti would sell Valley View Home, one of our oldest and most precious facilities not only for the elderly who get excellent care there but for their families' peace of mind.
He uses the threat of tax reassessment to strengthen his position. What a lame excuse to use the fear factor of tax increase on everyone just to try to justify a simple solution, which will only multiply the problem.
The money he would spend hiring a lawyer should be used to complete the apartment units the home is looking to provide and be an added and needed update plus a fundraiser.
The commissioners are overlooking a dedicated, loyal staff who would be left at the mercy of a buyer who will be looking to profit from his purchase and hire cheap unprofessional help.
They refer to a multi-million dollar debt.
This is nothing compared to what we would be losing.
Remember when Altoona used to have a free trash removal service for all its citizens, and officials discontinued it as a tax-cutting expense?
But private enterprise came in and made millions of dollars for the same service that the city cut out. So much for a political solution for a so called problem.
Valley View is not a problem. It must remain as it is and has been. The commissioners must realize this and do what is right by the present and future residents of Valley View and the excellent staff.
If it takes more money, we could get help from our federal government. This is why we pay taxes.
How about fund drives like Red Cross, Salvation Army and others have? We can do it; we must help Valley View at all costs.
Joe Wiedemer, Altoona

Littlestown police are investigating an attempted child luring.
A 14-year-old girl walking to school about 7:20 a.m. Friday was approached at the corner of East Locust and Long Alley, police said.
Police said the victim told them a man driving a four-door sedan stopped and asked if she needed a ride.
She declined the ride and kept walking toward the high school, police said. The man then made several inappropriate comments as well as gestures and offered her a ride again before driving off, they said.
The man in his early to mid-30s has short brown hair, a medium build and wore a blue zip-up coat.
Anyone with information is asked to call Littlestown police at 717-359-4511.

Matthew McConaughey has dieted himself down to skin and bones for an upcoming movie, but when the five-week shoot is over, he's gunning for one thing: a po boy sandwich.
But if that can't be found, McConaughey, 43, says that he'll settle on a perfect cheeseburger, describing his decadent post-weight-loss meal down to the condiments.
"I will have some 70 percent beef, 30 percent fat ground beef, maybe a half pound cheeseburger with another three types of cheese," McConaughey, who is starring in the independent film, The Dallas Buyer's Club, tells Hitfix.com. "I'll prepare it all and I'll make sure that it takes three hours just to prepare."
The Texan also envisions just how he'll dress the long-awaited burger, and he plans to spare no calories.
"I'm going to have buns with butter on both sides, toasted and grilled," he said. "I'm going to melt the cheese on the top bun, Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise. I want kosher dill pickles sliced nice and thin, diced white onions, slightly grilled until they get almost hard, and some thin jalapeno slices. And then I'm just going to sit back and let the [expletive] just drop on the ground."
For now, though, the Magic Mike star reveals that he has gone from 170 to 143 pounds in his physical transformation. He is famous for his fitness and says while he's still doing some cardio, the trick to dropping the pounds at his age is all about diet. He's lost so much now, however, that he says he's not so hungry.
"Your organs and muscles shrink, your organs shrink and my stomach has shrunk as well," he reveals. "So, as much as I can't wait to have that cheeseburger on the day [shooting ends], it'll probably be damn hard to eat the whole thing."

Students were evacuated from Philippi Elementary School Tuesday after the school received a bomb threat - the fifth one targeting a Barbour County school this academic year, police said.
A note containing the threat was discovered inside the school building at approximately 9:30 a.m., Philippi Police Chief Jeff Walters told The Inter-Mountain. Walters would not comment on where the note was found or if police had identified any suspects or persons of interest, saying the incident is still under investigation.
Walters said school board personnel evacuated the students, who were transported to Philippi Middle School so law enforcement could search the building.

West Virginia State Police Cpl. D.G. Lahman guides a bomb-sniffing dog through the hallways of Philippi Elementary School Tuesday afternoon. A threatening note was found inside the school Tuesday morning, prompting the evacuation of the students to the nearby middle school for the remainder of the school day.
"We called for K-9 unit assistance from the state police and began our investigation," Walters said. K-9 units arrived at approximately 1:30 p.m. and the elementary school was declared clear at 3:30 p.m., the police chief said.
Walters said the investigation of the school went smoothly and noted there was no evidence linking the bomb threat to two other bomb scares Tuesday - a threat aimed at the Division of Highways in Doddridge County and an arrest of a student with a hoax bomb at Salem International University in Harrison County.
"We at this time believe there's no relation," he said.
Dr. Joseph Super, superintendent of Barbour County Schools, said the school executed its evacuation plan "perfectly."
"Students were evacuated in an orderly manner and served their lunch," Super said Tuesday afternoon. "Educational instruction was abbreviated, given the circumstances, but they're on buses and safely on their way home."
Bomb threats have been all too common in Barbour County this school year. Barbour County Sheriff John Hawkins told an Inter-Mountain reporter on scene that Tuesday's bomb threat was the fifth a Barbour County school has received since the beginning of the 2012-2013 academic year.
In January, officials had to evacuate students and staff from all nine schools in Barbour County after a handwritten bomb threat was found at one of the facilities.
In addition to the sheriff's office and the WVSP, officers with the law enforcement division of the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources assisted the Philippi Police Department at the school Tuesday.
Walters is encouraging anyone with any information about the bomb threat to call the police department at 304-457-3700, ext. 224.
"You can leave a message anonymously," he said.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
The pace of biomarker development is accelerating as investigators report new studies on cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer disease, and other conditions in which the evaluation and isolation of workable markers is prominently featured. CHI's "ADAPT" meeting, to be held later this month, will profile various new strategies being developed by both the academic and private sectors.
Wei Zheng, Ph.D., leader of the R&D immunoassay group at EMD Chemicals, is overseeing a program to develop biomarker immunoassays to monitor drug-induced toxicity, including kidney damage.
Although immunohistochemistry has traditionally been looked upon as the gold standard for these studies, this approach is slow and cannot be adapted to multiplexing. "One of the principle reasons for drugs failing during development is because of organ toxicity," says Dr. Zheng. "This results in proteins being liberated into the serum and urine in abnormal amounts. These proteins can serve as biomarkers of adverse response to drugs, as well as disease states."
Through collaborative programs with Rules-Based Medicine (RBM), the EMD group has released panels for the profiling of human renal impairment and renal toxicity. These urinary biomarker based products fit the FDA and EMEA guidelines for assessment of drug-induced kidney damage in rats.
Although the FDA has not yet approved kidney toxicity biomarker tests, the industry is clearly moving in that direction, according to Dr. Zheng. "We see this trend, not only for drug-induced organ damage but also for biomarkers for disease states affecting organ function."
The group recently performed a screen for potential protein biomarkers in relation to kidney toxicity/damage on a set of urine and plasma samples from patients with documented renal damage. Multiplexed immunoassays were used to quantify protein analytes and standard blood and urine chemistries were also measured.
Additionally, Dr. Zheng is directing efforts to move forward with the multiplexed analysis of organ and cellular toxicity. Diseases thought to involve compromised oxidative phosphorylation include diabetes, Parkinson and Alzheimer diseases, cancer, and the aging process itself.
Good biomarkers allow Dr. Zheng to follow the mantra, "fail early, fail fast." With robust, multiplexible biomarkers, EMD can detect bad drugs early and kill them before they move into costly large animal studies and clinical trials. "Recognizing the severe liability that toxicity presents, we can modify the structure of the candidate molecule and then rapidly reassess its performance."
Scientists at Oncogene Science a division of Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, are also focused on biomarkers. "We are working on a number of antibody-based tests for various cancers, including a test for the Ca-9 CAIX protein, also referred to as carbonic anhydrase," Walter Carney, Ph.D., head of the division, states.
CAIX is a transmembrane protein that is overexpressed in a number of cancers, and, like Herceptin and the Her-2 gene, can serve as an effective and specific marker for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. It is liberated into the circulation in proportion to the tumor burden.
Dr. Carney and his colleagues are evaluating patients after tumor removal for the presence of the Ca-9 CAIX protein. If the levels of the protein in serum increase over time, this suggests that not all the tumor cells were removed and the tumor has metastasized.
Dr. Carney and his team have developed both an immunohistochemistry and an ELISA test that could be used as companion diagnostics in clinical trials of CAIX-targeted drugs.
The ELISA for the Ca-9 CAIX protein will be used in conjunction with Wilex' Rencarex®, which is currently in a Phase III trial as an adjuvant therapy for non-metastatic clear cell renal cancer.
Additionally, Oncogene Science has in its portfolio an FDA-approved test for the Her-2 marker. Originally approved for Her-2/Neu-positive breast cancer, its indications have been expanded over time, and was approved for the treatment of gastric cancer last year. It is normally present on breast cancer epithelia but overexpressed in some breast cancer tumors.
"Our products are designed to be used in conjunction with targeted therapies," says Dr. Carney. "We are working with companies that are developing technology around proteins that are overexpressed in cancerous tissues and can be both diagnostic and therapeutic targets."
The long-term goal of these studies is to develop individualized therapies, tailored for the patient. Since the therapies are expensive, accurate diagnostics are critical to avoid wasting resources on patients who clearly will not respond (or could be harmed) by the particular drug.
"At this time the rate of response to antibody-based therapies may be very poor, as they are often employed late in the course of the disease, and patients are in such a debilitated state that they lack the capacity to react positively to the treatment," Dr. Carney explains.

................. woof!!
i don't get it
it willl be good to come outI have watched season 1 so why not season 2
whick studio is producing it in japan?""Power is whatever one makes of it."
yea i didnt know that too
i had like to know who said that
what is it abt?
if anyone can find factual info on this subject it's me i'll get back to you if i find anything.
i have bad news and a possible solution. as you know if you finished season one the series ended prematurely... this was due to a flopp meaning the japanese thought the series "sucked". therefore the is no second season because they never finished the first. but if i can get in touch with the original director/writer i might be able to convince them to continue the series what do you all think?
I liked the show and was kinda left hanging. . . Really wanna finish it. Thanks for the effort*VAMPY*
like i said i'm going to get in touch with the producers and see what i can do about restarting the series.
plz get in touch with producer plzzz u guys can make so much money off of the show to if u just let the show be known and i want to no one thing does sakura die at the end?
i don't know if they're going to make a second season
to be honest this show scarys the crap outta me it's soo nasty and gorey
they should make a new tokko i just got finished watching the first season and they need to make a new 1 i think it was realy good i even got a friend who hates anime to like it so they should make a second season and a few movies i mean its not gonna shoot up in high ratings just yet but most shows take a while to get good ratings at least finish up the show i mean come on
I've seen season one and Tokko is now my number one favorite anime. But when I found out there was no season 2...they just leave you there, with nothing. They should continue, I don't believe there are this many fans and I don't think the Japanese believe either...I hope they make a season two, Tokko is a kick--- anime!
i agree the people who make tokko if they put it out there more it can easly compete with the anime's in the world but i just want to know if sakura dies at the end?
they should atleast give us a better ending plz im hoping tokko season 2 comes out and it can also have alot more fans if they get the name out there!

The Signs of Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) Second Coming
Signs of Jesus' (pbuh) Second Coming
The Signs from the Islamic Resources 8
84. The Decreasing Number of Reliable People
One hadith reveals that before the advent of Prophet Jesus (pbuh), there will be few trustworthy people and only little money earned according to the rules and laws of our religion:
In the End Times, people will be carrying out their trade, but there will hardly be a trustworthy person. (Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim)
Good people will all go, leaving behind them bad people, like useless barley and grapes. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal, Sahih Bukhari)
85. The Decreasing Number of Trustworthy People
The hadiths report that close to Doomsday, the number of trustworthy people will diminish and that people will seize and use that which has been entrusted to them. Moreover, we are told that people will fall behind in their obligation to give alms:
When the spoils are restricted to a few people, when goods entrusted to one are regarded as booty, when giving alms is regarded as a heavy burden... (Muhammad ibn `Abd ar-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-Sa`ah, p. 114)
Goods entrusted to one being regarded as booty, and the giving of alms being regarded as a loan [which is hard to repay]... (Muhammad ibn `Abd al-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-Sa`ah, p.139)
When you see people breaking their words and promises, disregarding their trusts... (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi, p. 378, no. 690)
86. Abandoning Almsgiving
When they regard giving alms as a punishment [a burden instead of a religious observance]. (Tirmidhi)
When that time comes, alms will be taken by force as a punishment and extortion as loot. (Fera Idu Fevaidi'l Fiqr Fi'l Imam al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, pp. 146-47)
Protecting and watching over the poor and needy is a requirement of the religion's moral values. God has commanded believers to give alms to those in need, to meet their needs, and to protect and watch over them. As a result of this moral necessity, poverty disappears in societies that live by religion's moral values, due to the existence of social solidarity. In the End Times, on the other hand, people will turn away from the religion's moral values, causing the almost total disappearance of almsgiving.
87. Abandoning Salah (Prayers)
Hudaifa bin Yaman narrated that God's Messenger (may God bless him and grant him peace) said: Islam would extinquish just as the embroidery of a fabric become worn-out so much so that none would know… what prayer is. (Sunan Ibn Majah)
The Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace) said: "One sign of Doomsday is the abandonment of salah... At that time, O Salman! The most wicked of all sins and irreligiousness will occur. People will abandon salah and adhere to their lust. If you are alive during that period, perform your prayers at their respective times." (Fera Idu Fevaidi'l Fiqr Fi'l Imam al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, pp. 146-47)
People will encounter such a time that salah [prayers] will be abandoned, buildings will be higher, oaths and curses will be everywhere, bribery and adultery will spread, and the Hereafter will be exchanged for this life. (Muhammad ibn `Abd al-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-Sa`ah, p. 157)
88. The Spread of False Testimony and Slander
Verily, in the presence of the Last Hour there will be … false testimony and concealing evidence. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal and al-Hakim)
There will be false accusations of unchastity and slander. (Tirmidhi)
The spread of false testimony and slander are further important portents of Doomsday. Such activities occur because people distance themselves from religion's morality, which entails being honest under all conditions and being just even at the expense of one's self-interest. People who are distant from religion's morality and unaware that they will give an account of their deeds on the Day of Judgment can readily tell lies or give false testimony if doing so will benefit them. The growing number of such people is a sign of Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) second coming:
89. Giving Positions of Responsibility to Incompetent People
The hadith quoted below stresses another sign:
God's Apostle said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour." It was asked. "How will honesty be lost, O God's Apostle?" He said, "When authority is given to those who do not deserve it, then wait for the Hour." (Sahih Bukhari)
90. Considering One's Superiority To Be in Wealth Rather than in Awareness of God
It becomes obvious that the Hour is drawing near … When people esteem the well-off, and people who are superior to him stand up and salute him. (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi, pp. 480-81)
People will be judged by their wealth, and respect will be shown to people according to their wealth. These qualities are signs of Doomsday, for:
Before the Hour comes, there will be special greeting for the people of distinction. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal)
91. The Decay of Human Relations
The hadiths also mention the destruction of social relations between people:
Verily among the signs of the Last Hour is the greeting [Salaam] is limited to those known only… (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal)
The Hour will not come until hearts become strangers, words become apart, and brothers adhere to other religions.(ad-Daylami)
The Hour will not come until special people, rather than ordinary people, are saluted. (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi, p. 470)
Breaking ties with kin is among the signs of the Last Hour. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal)
92. People Value Their Pets More Than Other People
When Doomsday approaches, people will have puppies. They will hold these puppies much dearer than their own children. (al-Tabarani, al-Hakim)
Having love and compassion for animals, as well as admiring the beauties God has granted them, are surely favorable characteristics. However, the event related here is the replacement of love for people with love for animals. This is surely a warped viewpoint.
93. The Decay of Family Relations
Another characteristic will be the disintegration of relationships among families, between friends and neighbors, and the loss of community and spiritual values:
Before the Hour comes; … family ties will be cut… (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal, Musnad)
There would [first] be turmoil for a person in regard to his family, his property, his own self, his children, his neighbors. (Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim)
The portents of Doomsday [consist of] saying ugly things to one another, mockery, hostility, the severing of relations with relatives, regarding a trustworthy person as a traitor, and trusting a traitor. (Muhammad ibn `Abd ar-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-Sa`ah, pp. 136-37)

Graham Elliot Loses 91 lbs. Since Weight-Loss Surgery
"It's going to be a huge party when I hit 299 lbs.," says the Chicago-based chef, who is just six pounds shy of his goal.
"That will be the first time in well over a decade that I've been under 300 [lbs.] I see people on the street who are the size I was only a few months ago, and it's like, 'Man, I wish you could feel what I am feeling right now, it's absolutely life-changing.' "
The father of three, 36, started exercising about a month ago, after getting permission from his doctor.
"I recently ran my first mile and a half non-stop," he says. "I can even sprint and run pretty darn fast to catch a football. I haven't done that since I was a teenager."
"At first, I ran a quarter mile, and every two blocks, I'd be winded and need to catch my breath," he says. "But I kept going. It's meditative and I'm proud at the end of a run."
Elliot now runs every other day and also swims and jumps rope. "My legs still get sore!" he says. "I'm really excited to push myself more and more. I'm planning to run my first 5K around Thanksgiving."
Thanks to his exercise routine and new attitude towards food, Elliot, has dropped 10 pants sizes.
"I'm buying new clothes all the time," he says. "Before I was only able to shop at big and tall stores. Now it's much easier."

The act of intercourse with deep pentatration. The man puts the bitch on her back holding her legs next to her head. He then sits on her ass pointing his unit straight down and he bobs up and down like a fishing bobber out at sea during a rough storm! Be careful you could seriously injure the bitch if you do it anal...

Age: 94
Residence: Thornton, formerly of Greeley
Lloyd J. Heinlein, 94, of Thornton, formerly of Greeley, died Nov. 28, 2012, at Sunny Acres Nursing Home in Thornton. He was born Sept. 8, 1918, in Haydenville, Ohio, to Harry and Carrie (Allen) Heinlein. Lloyd married Betty Jean Childs on Dec. 11, 1942, in Springfield, Mo.

After serving during World War II, Lloyd and Betty settled in Logan, Ohio, where they raised their family, and he ran the family-owned Heinlein Funeral Home. They retired in Greeley and spent much of their time traveling coast to coast in their recreational vehicle.
For more than 60 years, he loved his wife and missed her tremendously when she passed in 2002. He also loved his family and friends, but most of all he loved his Lord and Savior. Lloyd was a member of First Assembly of God Church of Greeley. Since the time Lloyd was saved as a very young man, he worked tirelessly for and expressed his love for the church. After 9/11, when he was in his 80s, he expressed his love for God's creations by walking every street in Greeley, stopping at each school, church and public building to pray for God's protection.
Lloyd constantly helped others in need and tried to brighten as many lives as possible. He will be missed by many, but is now in a far better place.
Lloyd is survived by his daughter, Carol Ann Silva; son, Ronald L. Heinlein; four grandchildren, Cheri Grace, Lisa Panzarella, Heather Flannery, and Matthew Heinlein; four great-grandchildren, Theodore and Harry Grace, Dylan Flannery and Sophia Panzarella.
He was preceded in death by his wife; a brother, Harold Heinlein; a sister, Pauline Robinson; and his parents.

Age: 88
Residence: Fort Collins

She attended schools in New Mexico, Montana and Colorado. She married Pete Maciel on Aug. 25, 1943.

Frances was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Pete; sons, Joseph, Pete Jr. and Nolan.
Frances loved traveling with family and friends, gambling, but never forgetting to have her Fourth of July birthday bash for relatives and friends.
She was affectionately known as "mom." Visiting her always ended with words of wisdom, "Have fun and don't get into trouble" as she pointed her finger at you to make sure she had your undivided attention.

The oldest child of Julius and Jennie (Carlson) Hendrickson, she was born July 11, 1914, in Brighton, Colo. A lifelong resident of Weld County, she attended Lone Tree School and graduated from Eaton High School in 1932. As the oldest of six children, she was the only one to have her picture professionally taken; it now hangs in the bedroom of the "Swedish Stuga" at Centennial Village. She graciously donated the picture when the Swedish Heritage Society of Northern Colorado was furnishing the Stuga to give visitors to the Village an idea of how a typical home of Swedish immigrants might have been furnished.
Following her graduation from high school, she attended Greeley Commercial College and was then employed at the Weld County Courthouse for two years. She also worked for Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. as a secretary.
Mrs. Peterson married Milford Peterson on Jan. 12, 1939, in Eaton at the home of her parents. They welcomed their daughter, Sherrill, into their hearts and home on Nov. 7, 1941. The Petersons had been married for 57 years at the time of Milford's death in 1996; their daughter passed away in 1977.
Following her marriage, she devoted her life to her husband and her daughter. She was also an Avon representative for 16 years in the Gill area. The Petersons were members of First Evangelical Free Church (now Christ Community) and later, shortly after its inception, became members of Mountain View Evangelical Free Church. Mrs. Peterson was active in women's ministry and was given to hospitality, often inviting friends and family into her home. She was an avid reader, enjoyed doing word searches and watching Colorado Rockies baseball. Everyone who knew her was aware of her fondness for pink and mauve, whether it was in her choice of clothing or décor in her home.
Mrs. Peterson is survived by her brother, Carl Hendrickson and wife, Lorraine, of Greeley; and her sister, Eileen Osborn, of Highlands Ranch; as well as her nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Milford; daughter, Sherrill; her parents; and three siblings.

Torell Troup's legacy with the Buffalo Bills so far is this: He's the guy drafted one pick ahead of local product – and New England Patriots star tight end – Rob Gronkowski.
The Bills don't have much to show for their big investment in Troup, the 41st overall pick of the 2010 draft. The hulking defensive tackle has played in just 21 games over three seasons, and made just two starts. His career stat line reads like this: 31 tackles, two passes defensed.
You could play the "what if" game for days when it comes to draft picks, but there's no question Troup's production looks even worse when Gronkowski is brought up. The Amherst native looks like a future Hall of Famer, with 187 catches, 2,663 yards and 38 touchdowns in his first three seasons.
What's even harder to swallow is Gronkowski was said to have back problems in college, part of the reason he lasted until the 42nd pick. That injury is exactly what has hampered Troup as a professional.
"I had a couple bad-luck years here. I know what the expectations are," Troup said matter-of-factly last week, as the players cleaned out their lockers. "I just had to get healthy. I'm there now. I'm ready to prove myself."
Troup missed all of 2012 after being placed on injured reserve during training camp because of those lingering back problems. That came after playing just six largely ineffective games in the 2011 season.
Those problems are now a thing of the past, though, according to Troup, who met with team doctors around Christmas and got a clean bill of health.
"The doctors told me everything is all pretty much healed up, so I'm going to keep pushing forward and keep working out," he said. "Hopefully this offseason goes by fast."
Asked how much of a relief that news was, Troup said he expected it.
"I kind of already knew that just from the way I'm feeling when I'm working out and able to push sleds and do field work -- able to move around -- I can just totally feel a difference from camp," he said. "I knew it was going to be a good thing once I got the MRI back and everything. They all looked significantly better than they did at the start of camp.
"I feel like I'm done with rehab. I've been working out for the last month. I haven't been seeing much of the trainers, because there's been no need, other than icing and things like that."
Troup, who makes his offseason home in Atlanta, chose to stay in Buffalo to do his rehab while on IR.
"I spent the whole season here, going to meetings and working out when they're at practice. I really think that helped just to stay focused," he said. "When you go away, you kind of lose focus a little bit for the simple fact you're not around the team. I got to be around the team the whole year."
Troup, who will be 25 at the start of next season, was originally drafted to play nose tackle in a 3-4 defense. At 6-foot-3 and 327 pounds, he's got the ideal size for the role, provided his back is healthy.
He might once again get that chance under new defensive coordinator Mike Pettine, who has plenty of experience with the scheme from his time with the Baltimore Ravens and New York Jets.
"We'll be a multiple front, multiple coverage defense. The trademark of our defense is we're going to be smart, tough and relentless. How we configure it is more player-driven," said Pettine.
Troup just wants to be a part of that, whatever his role may be.
"That's all I've been thinking about. I'm so hungry and so ready to get out on the field, just to have any kind of contact and be a normal player again," he said. "It's hard coming to camp knowing I wasn't ready to go and still trying to go. Now that I know I'm good and I get these couple months to train and be with my teammates, I really can't wait to get out there."

Common causes of insomnia include:
Insomnia becomes more common with age. As you get older, you may experience:
A change in health. The chronic pain of conditions such as arthritis or back problems as well as depression, anxiety and stress can interfere with sleep. Older men often develop noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland (benign prostatic hyperplasia), which can cause the need to urinate frequently, interrupting sleep. In women, menopausal hot flashes can be equally disruptive.
Other sleep-related disorders, such as sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome, also become more common with age. Sleep apnea causes you to stop breathing periodically throughout the night. Restless legs syndrome causes unpleasant sensations in your legs and an almost irresistible desire to move them, which may prevent you from falling asleep.
Sleep problems may be a concern for children and teenagers as well. However, some children and teens simply have trouble getting to sleep or resist a regular bedtime because their internal clocks are more delayed. They want to go to bed later and sleep later in the morning.

"The Jew's domination in the state seems so assured that now not only can he call himself a Jew again, but he ruthlessly admits his ultimate national and political designs. A section of his race openly owns itself to be a foreign people, yet even here they lie. For while the Zionists try to make the rest of the world believe that the national consciousness of the Jew finds its satisfaction in the creation of a Palestinian state, the Jews again slyly dupe the dumb Goyim. It doesn't even enter their heads to build up a Jewish state in Palestine for the purpose of living there; all they want is a central organization for their international world swindle, endowed with its own sovereign rights and removed from the intervention of other states: a haven for convicted scoundrels and a university for budding crooks." (A. Hitler, English translation by Ralph Manheim, Mein Kampf, Houghton Mifflin, Boston, New York, (1971), pp. 324-325
At last, the Jews had achieved the weapon which they planned to use to terrorize the entire world into subjecting itself to their insane frenzies and their frequently voiced goal of world domination of the 'animals,' or non-Jews. As Chaim Weizmann boasted, 'We will never actually have to use this atomic weapon in military operations as the mere threat of its use will persuade any opponent to surrender to us." (Eustace Mullins, Foreword, War! War! War!)
.Nuremberg defendant Julius Streicher, who was eventually hanged because he published a sometimes sensational anti-Jewish weekly paper, was brutally mistreated following his arrest. He was badly beaten, kicked, whipped, spat at, forced to drink saliva and burned with cigarettes. His genitals were beaten. Eyebrow and chest hair was pulled out. He was stripped and photographed. Fellow defendant Hans Frank was savagely beaten by two black GIs shortly after his arrest. August Eigruber, former Gauleiter of Upper Austria, was mutilated and castrated at the end of the war. /78
'The millions of Jews living in America, England, France, North Africa and South, not forgetting Palestine, have decided to carry on the war in Germany to the very end. It is to be a war of extermination.'
The Toronto Star (26 February 1940) printed a declaration of a Rabbi Perlberg, Director of the British section of the Jewish World Congress:

"We are not denying and are not afraid to confess that this war is our war and that it is waged for the liberation of Jewry... Stronger than all fronts together is our front, that of Jewry. We are not only giving this war our financial support on which the entire war production is based, we are not only providing our full propaganda power which is the moral energy that keeps this war going. The guarantee of victory is predominantly based on weakening the enemy forces, on destroying them in their own country, within the resistance. And we are the Trojan horses in the enemy's fortress. Thousands of Jews living in Europe constitute the principal factor in the destruction of our enemy. There, our front is a fact and the most valuable aid for victory." - Chaim Weizmann, President of the World Jewish Congress, Head of the Jewish Agency and later President of Israel, in a Speech on December3, 1942, in New York.

Ferns and trees ferns belong to an ancient family of plants. Beloved for their stunning structures and lush green foliage, they generally grow best in moist and /or shady areas.
Ferns tend to thrive out of the sun, having originally had a natural forest habitat where large trees acted as a canopy to block out the sunlight. The large luscious leaves associated with ferns evolved to help them cope with growing in the shade.
If your garden or an area of your garden is in the shade, then it is worth taking the time to explore the possibilities offered by ferns and tree ferns. Ferns can create a mass of beautiful green foliage in striking shades and shapes, even in the darkest corners of your garden.
Ferns group very well with each other or with other plants, Combine ferns with Hostas and Japanese Maple to create a leafy oasis with an architecturally interesting structure.
At Paramount Plant nursery tree ferns and ferns are a speciality. We stock a vast range, some have specific soil preference, some are hardier than others. Whatever your requirements, we can help you select the best fern or tree fern for your situation.
We have decorative, ornamental and tree ferns for conservatories and for indoors. We also have lots of hardy ferns for sale that will survive winter frosts – including a range of native hardies.
Highlights from our collection of Tree Ferns include the Tasmanian Tree Fern, which we stock in heights of up to 3 metres, ready for planting! Read our Blog on Dicksonia Antarctica
