Date Committed: 4/12/2012
Position: Running Back
Foster plays in a pro-style offense in high school at Peoria Richwoods, so he gets his fair share of carries. It's no surprise that he was very productive, especially playing in one of the larger classifications in Illinois high school football.
Foster racked up an impressive 30 Touchdowns on 2,362 yards, averaging 7.5 yards per carry. With other top offensive threat from last year Clayton Glasper graduating and heading to Northern Illinois, all eyes will be on Foster this year to carry an even greater load.
What He Brings:
Despite being a bigger-bodied running back, Foster still has great speed for his size. He recorded times in the 4.4 range at the Semper Fidelis underclassmen combine in Arizona over the winter, opening a lot of eyes and proving that he has the physical tools to be a division one running back.
What Can Improve:
Though Foster has very strong straight-line speed, he still needs to develop his lateral quickness as he prepares for college. His vision gives him the ability to find his gaps, but he will need to be able to react quickly and hit the gaps with both speed and power.
What Makes Him Unique:
When Foster gets to Illinois, it won't be his first time playing a game at Memorial Stadium. Foster led his team to a state runner-up finish in the 2011 IHSA State Football Tournament. Foster rushed 18 times for 65 yards and a touchdown in that game.

The Top 9 Books I've Read About Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Parentingcaitlinhtp
Raise your e-hand if you love books. Me, me, me! So, it only seemed natural that the day I discovered I was pregnant, I whipped out my Kindle and began to download every pregnancy book I could get my e-fingers on.
Some pregnancy books are amazing… some are not. Some share new and exciting information… some just make you feel anxious and scared (What to Expect When You're Expecting, anyone?).
Click through to see my nine favorite pregnancy books, including the best breastfeeding guide, the best natural childbirth book, and the book that stopped me from becoming a paranoid basketcase.
What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Children's Vaccinations 1 of 9I thought "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Children's Vaccinations" was a very well-written book about issues surrounding vaccinations. The book was written by a medical doctor; I thought it did a good job of tackling a controversial topic without making black and white declarations. More than anything, I appreciated the tips on how to prepare your child for vaccinations and an alternative vaccinations schedule to follow.
$10.19 from Amazon.com
Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth 2 of 9This humorous take on pregnancy was a nice change from the more serious reading... Although I didn't agree with everything Jenny McCarthy did (why complain about your excessive weight gain and then tell me that you ate a batch of brownies ever night?!), she did make me giggle. And that, my friends, is very, very good.
$10.98 from Amazon.com
The Panic-Free Pregnancy 3 of 9EVERY PREGNANT WOMAN should read "The Panic-Free Pregnancy: An OB-GYN Separates Fact from Fiction on Food, Exercise, Travel, Pets, Coffee, Medications, and Concerns You Have When You Are Expecting." After spending the first month of pregnancy constantly talking myself off the crazy ledge, this book calmed me and washed away my fears. I have had a panic-free pregnancy, thanks largely to this book.
$11.29 from Amazon.com
How to Exercise When You're Expecting 4 of 9As an active pregnant lady, I loved and appreciated the balanced advice in "How to Exercise When You're Expecting: For the 9 Months of Pregnancy and the 5 Months It Takes to Get Your Best Body Back." The book is broken down by trimester and offers sample at-home workouts. I am especially looking forward to do the post-pregnancy 'stroller' workout with my little one!
$10.88 from Amazon.com
Husband-Coached Childbirth 5 of 9Alright - I'm cheating. I have not personally read "Husband-Coached Childbirth: The Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth." My husband, however, is currently engrossed in the book, which promotes techniques for helping your wife have a medication-free labor. He is really enjoying the book and constantly approaches me with fun and interesting factoids.
$10.36 from Amazon.com
Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way 6 of 9If you're interested in natural childbirth, the ONE book I highly recommend you read and memorize is "Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way." The book is so clear and easy-to-understand; plus, it comes with 'coaches tips' for the husband/birth partner to learn, too. I appreciated the pictures and diagrams and will definitely be returning to this book immediately before delivery - probably two or three times.
$12.19 from Amazon.com
Origins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Lives 7 of 9While not technically a 'pregnancy' book per say, "Origins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Lives" is an interesting mish-mash of non-fiction and memoir. The book discusses how a mother's lifestyle choices impact her unborn child's health and personality. From the Amazon.com plot summary: "[The author] discovers dramatic stories: how individuals gestated during the Nazi siege of Holland in World War II are still feeling its consequences decades later; how pregnant women who experienced the 9/11 attacks passed their trauma on to their offspring in the womb; how a lab accident led to the discovery of a common household chemical that can harm the developing fetus; how the study of a century-old flu pandemic reveals the high personal and societal costs of poor prenatal experience." Interesting, to say the least!
$17.16 from Amazon.com
The Green Pregnancy Diet 8 of 9As a vegetarian momma-to-be, I was initially very concerned about how my diet would impact my growing baby. "The Green Pregnancy Diet," which is targeted at vegetarians but can really be used by anyone interested in eating a cleaner diet and living a more chemical-free lifestyle, gave me good tips and reduced my overall anxiety.
$13.95 from Amazon.com
The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding 9 of 9The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding is the La Leche League's official handbook for breastfeeding. I'm currently halfway through but am already so glad I picked this book up. It's easy to read and understand and FULL of useful tips.

On Sunday, the 75th "Christmas Music by Candlelight" will be presented at 4 p.m. in the First United Methodist Church at Market and Ross streets. The service is provided by the Williamsport Music Club as a musical Christmas gift to the community.
The first such candlelight service was at the first Baptist Church in 1937.
The beautifully decorated sanctuary was the setting for boys in choir robes serving as ushers with members carrying lighted red candles while processing to "Adeste Fideles" as the congregation joined in the singing of the hymn.

The Williamsport Youth Choir will perform for the Williamsport Music Club's 75th anniversary "Christmas Music by Candlelight" show, which will be held at 4 p.m. Dec. 2 at First United Methodist Church, Market and Ross streets.
For the next three years, the service was held at the former St. Paul Lutheran Church. In 1941, the candlelight service was moved to the First United Methodist Church, its present site. During the early years, fond memories are of Eva Buck's cornet introduction to the first hymn, Mrs. John R. Kaufman III, ringing her Swiss bells, the Music Club string ensemble and three vocal ensembles: juvenile, junior and senior. All performers appeared regularly to standing room only audiences.
It is interesting to note that the last remaining Music Club Charter member, Dorothy Jacobs Streeter, died just this year, 75 years after she capably served as chairwoman of the very first service. Also, another charter member and well-known musician, Mary Landon Russell, died in 2008. She played the piano at numerous services throughout the years.
A special 75th Anniversary Choir has been formed to sing for this candlelight service. Singers from all churches in the community have been invited to participate.
The Williamsport Youth Choir, an affiliate of the Williamsport Chamber Choir and Orchestra are participating as well. The Youth Choir includes grades 5 through 8, is directed by Curtin Middle School teacher Jennifer Wright and is accompanied by Bethany Fisher. The members include: Paige Bushnick, Maria Berardelli, Ellie Boring, Cassie Conklin, Melony Crissman, Elizabeth Culp, Ben Dawson, Hannah Dawson, Kayliegh Early, Lydia Fink, Joseph Freynick, Lauren Heim, Kara Hershey, Alyssa Jacopetti, Lauren Lattimer, Reagan Luna, London Mussina, Kolachi Pombar, Jordan Reed, Sydney Reed, Maddy Reeves, Naomi Rintelman, Devon Robinson, Levi Roush, Sam Sacavage, Amber Smith, Anna-Vaughn Stewart, Sadie Wentzel, Taylor Wentzel, Shayne Williams and Mitchell Young.
Traditionally, the free will offering received at this service is given to a local charity. This year, the offering will be donated to the Food Pantry of the United Churches of Lycoming County.
Richard Lakey will begin the candlelight event with the organ prelude "Of the Father's Love Begotten" by Wilbur Held, followed by the processional hymn "O Come All Ye Faithful." A 16th century English tune, "What Child is This?" will be played by flutist Lucy Henry, accompanied by Dianne Peeling.
The Exodus Brass Quintet, featuring Andrew France and Robert Wise on trumpet; Judith Shellenberger, French horn; Glenn Hosterman, trombone, and Scott Williams on tuba will present "Farandole," from L'Arlesienne Suite No. 3 by Bizet; and a medley titled "Christmastide," arranged by Malinda Zenor.
Pianist Jane Landon will perform an arrangement of the traditional Christmas melody, "I Saw Three Ships" after which the Williamsport Youth Choir will perform "Sing Noel" by Praetorius, "The First Noel with Pachelbel's Canon," arranged by Michael Clayson and "Ding Dong! Merrily on High," arranged by Howard Cable.
Program Chairman Kay Huffman will offer greetings after which organist Leatha Kieser will play "Caroling, Caroling" as the offertory, followed by the French carol "Angels We Have Heard on High" featuring a flute obligato by Lucy Henry.
The vocal solo "The Virgin's Slumber Song" will be sung by tenor Robert Hacker, accompanied by Tom Wetzel.
The 75th Anniversary Choir will sing "Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus" by Charles Wesley, "There's a Song in the Air" by Holland and Harrington and "Do You Hear What I Hear?" by Regney and Sharpe.
The Choir is directed by Kay Huffman and accompanied by Tom Qetzel.
Concluding the service will be the Recessional Carol "Joy to the World" by Handel and the Postlude "In Dulci Jubilo" by J.S. Bach, played by organist Carol Waltz.
The ushers will be Dale Bower, James Fetter, Herb Seltzer and Claude Williams. The Acolytes will be Daniel and Joseph Havrilla.

whey protein powder does raise insulin. I've been experimenting with its affects on my own blood sugar using various fat sources. I use a 0 carb whey protein powder. Pick your poison I guess
I recently heard that Whey protein powder raises insulin levels to very high levels. This was a pretty big surprise to me since I attribute carbs and sugar to raised insulin levels.
Why does whey do this?
Are there any other foods I should be aware of, that raises insulin?
I am currently trying to fix a broken metabolism here, and I'm trying to keep my insulin levels down.
whey protein powder does raise insulin. I've been experimenting with its affects on my own blood sugar using various fat sources. I use a 0 carb whey protein powder. Pick your poison I guess
--Trish (Bork)
FOOD PORN BLOG! http://theprimaljunkfoodie.blogspot.com
Protein spikes insulin substantially. Yogurt, milk and cheeses can illicit a spike much greater than carbohydrate. Then again, steak has a larger insulin spike than brown whole wheat pasta.
And it's supposed to.
How else can you shuttle amino acids into your muscles for growth and repair if protein didn't spike insulin? That's why:
Nuts spike insulin.
Chicken spikes insulin more than nuts.
Beef spikes insulin more than chicken.
Casein spikes insulin more than beef.
Whey spikes insulin more than casein.
Generally, the better quality the protein, the larger the insulin spike - because insulin spikes can quite often be a GOOD thing. Without insulin, you don't grow, you don't heal and you die very quickly.
For more information, read up on the insulin index:
Insulin doesn't make you fat. Resistance to leptin makes you fat. Insulin may store fat, but it's leptin that releases it and controls your hunger. In a healthy metabolism, the fat that insulin stores is released in kind with the ensuing leptin response. Spiking your insulin won't make you leptin resistant. Chronically elevated insulin, lots of n6 fats, trans fats and manmade frankenfoods will make you leptin resistant. No one ever got got leptin resistant from a post-workout whey protein shake or a plate of steak and potatoes...unless the steak was marinated in corn syrup and the potatoes were fried in canola oil.
Whey protein insulin spikes are also followed by a big glucagon spike - insulin's anti-hormone - so it's a much different reaction than eating a bowl of pasta. I doubt it'll raise your blood sugar much, even if it does spike your insulin. Remember, the insulin from whey isn't storing sugar as fat, it's storing animo acids in your muscle for growth and repair.

Hah, googled "why does whey raise insulin" and the first result was Mark's

I feel like whey raising insulin isn't so bad after reading this...
EDIT: Thanks Choco, between you and Mark, I feel much more educated on the role of insulin

Haha, I used to believe in all the insulin fairy tales and was on the "It's all about insulin" bandwagon. After four months of being staunchly low carbohydrate and pure Primal with no fat loss, I figured out that that is one of the biggest loads of crap you'll ever hear about weight loss. Insulin can be your friend just as much as it can be your enemy. Fat loss is regulated through leptin, not insulin, and real weight loss is achieved through leptin manipulation. I used to eat around 500-600g of carbohydrates in an entire week. Now, I eat around 1,400g of carbohydrate from Friday, Saturday and Sunday alone and I'm finally dropping lots of body fat. It's all about partitioning, hormone manipulation and properly timed underfeeding and overfeeding...and of course, tailoring your workout schedule to your diet. They have to be in sync - you do your low level cardio on higher fat/low carb days and you do your heavy lifting on low fat/high carb days. Why? Because slow jogging burns primarily fat and heavy lifting burns primarily glycogen. Partitioning!
Don't put your trust in anyone on this forum, including me. You are the key to your own success.
Insulin spikes are good, it's chronically high insulin that's indicative of metabolic dysfunction (I haven't read enough to determine whether hyperinsulinemia is also causative or just an effect of metabolic damage).
Tealia, as long as you avoid the egregious offenders (sugar, grains, legumes) and keep carb intake to a reasonable level (100-150g/day is widely agreed to be a good level for sedentary individuals, less if your blood glucose is really out of control), you'll be doing well.
Unless you're eating pure fat, there's no way to avoid the occasional insulin spike. As others have mentioned, it's chronically elevated blood sugar/insulin that's the real problem.
I am extremely confused by some of the things said in this thread.
From what I understood (and admittedly could be wrong)
Eat giant piece of bread ==> Blood glucose spikes, Insulin spikes ==> Insulin takes blood glucose and stores it as fat ==> Insulin & glucose gone ==> crash
Eat big yummy steak ==> Blood glucose & insulin moderately increase over time ==> Insulin stores glucose as energy for muscles ==> insulin & glucose stay at good levels = no crash
----- now from what choco said:
eat big yummy steak ==> blood glucose slowly increases, insulin spikes? ==> insulin then does what? How come I don't get a crash and rollercoaster insulin effect from meat then if it spikes insulin?
I'm extremely confused
In some, whey can cause not just a spike, but an elevated blood sugar level that remains high over an extended period. If I drink whey in the morning, my blood sugar will remain 20-40 points above my fasting level all day and into the next. My body is just unable to handle it. I watched my h1ac levels rise steadily for a year until I figured out it was the whey doing it. I quit whey and my blood sugar is optimal now. Really the only way to know what effects you is to test, everyone's reactions are different.

A tax tsunami is coming at the end of this year. So this is the last chance to convert to a Roth IRA. At the end of 2010, Congress extended the Bush tax cuts for two years. But the snooze button is running out, and this time the likelihood of another extension is slim.
You have just nine more months to convert to a Roth individual retirement account under these lower tax rates and move your money to where it will never be taxed again. In a Roth conversion, you pay taxes on the appreciation in your traditional tax-sheltered account, and then transfer it to a Roth IRA.
Regardless of your political persuasion, Congress' practice of keeping taxes low amid a record national debt and budget deficits is unsustainable. The best we can hope for is gridlock, which would mean the George W. Bush rates expire and return to their previously higher values. Higher taxes are in our future until we get spending under control.
The government gave you a tax write-off when you put money into your IRA. Now the government will change the tax rate you pay when you withdraw the money. When you turn 70 1/2, the government requires you to withdraw some of the money from your traditional IRA, known as the required minimum distribution (RMD). You are taxed on it then.
It is as though your IRA has a mortgage on it and next year the government will be raising the rate you pay. A Roth conversion is like paying off the mortgage on your IRA early at these lower rates in order to own your IRA free and clear.
Converting to a Roth requires professional assistance from a financial advisor and a certified public accountant. First, determine if you are a good candidate for a Roth conversion. The answer is yes for most families.
Advantages of a Roth account: The growth within a Roth account is not taxed, both as it is growing and when you withdraw it. Roths waive the annual RMD requirement. Roth accounts inherited by your beneficiaries are tax-free over their lifetimes.
You may be a good candidate for a Roth conversion in 2012 if you can answer "yes" to any of these statements:
1. You expect your tax bill to stay the same or be higher in the future. The level of your income doesn't matter. If your income is low, you can convert a portion of your IRA at a low tax rate. And if your income is high, your tax bracket in the future is liable to be higher than it is now as the Bush tax cuts expire.
If you are working throughout 2012 and then turning 65 and retiring in 2013, you might be better to delay your conversion until you have no income and can convert it all in the lower tax brackets. Delay doing a Roth conversion any time you know your taxable income will be lower in future years.
2. You have an IRA that could be converted. The larger it is, the more essential it is to do a Roth conversion. Because the Internal Revenue Service will force you to start taking RMDs at age 70, those distributions could push you into a higher tax bracket. Converting some of your IRA to a Roth will reduce the value of your IRA and lower the distributions you ultimately will have to take.
If you have a 401(k) from a previous employer, you can roll it into an IRA and then convert the IRA. But if you only have your 401(k) from your current employer, moving it to a Roth will probably not be allowed.
3. You have sufficient assets to pay the tax from your nonretirement accounts. You lose many of the benefits of a Roth conversion if you pay taxes from your IRA account rather than from your taxable assets. This is one reason we recommend putting 5% of your take-home pay toward taxable investments.
4. You want to reduce your estate's value and leave a tax-free asset to heirs. Converting your IRA to a Roth and then leaving it to grandchildren could produce an after-tax benefit twice as large as leaving them the traditional IRA and the taxable amount that could have been used to pay the conversion tax.
5. You are willing to pay estimated taxes and incur increased tax preparation fees. The conversion slightly complicates your tax preparation, which is why we recommend you engage competent financial advice.
You can reverse a Roth conversion as late as Oct. 15 of the following year. So the more time you allow yourself between now and Oct. 15, 2013, the more time you will have to determine if the funds you converted to a Roth did well. If the Roth IRA dropped in value, you may want to un-do the conversion, known as recharacterizing. If the account held its value or grew, stick with the Roth.

"Earth to Echo" aims squarely at its preteen target audience; unfortunately, the film also feels like it was written by someone in that age group.
No, I take that back - it's an insult to 12 year olds.
"Echo" is a sort of "E.T." wannabe for the 21st century, with three middle-school students working to enjoy their final night together when everyone in their prefab community is ordered to move (superhighway coming through!).
Article Photos
Shown from left in a scene from "Earth to Echo" are Reese Hartwig, Ella Wahlestedt, Astro and Teo Halm.
Their evening gets a jump-start when they discover a tiny, robotic alien who has crash-landed and, as usual, needs to rebuild his spaceship; meanwhile, the usual amorphous government workers pursue the usual harmless visitor with the usual brainless malice (see "Starman," "E.T.," "Iron Giant," etc.).
I'm willing to spot a film like this some preposterousness, but as Echo leads the children from place to place, attempting to reconstruct a "key" to his vessel, I was often unable to figure out what was happening - because so little of it made sense.
One huge problem: If the lovable alien could fly 100 million light-years, understand English and find all necessary parts in such places as a barn, an arcade and a girl's bedroom, then I don't understand why he would need help from hyperactive preteens.
Another absurdity is the way the three pals (together with an appealing female friend who joins them) are constantly able to escape adult pursuit by the simple expedient of running. Or riding bikes. Really fast, I guess.
Instead of coherent plotting, "Echo" is more interested in playing up its preadolescent milieu of jolly wisecracks, friendship above all, awkwardness around girls and mastery of technology (the entire film purports to be footage from the boys' cameras and phones).
After about 40 minutes of repeatedly thinking "But wait!", I finally gave up, trying instead to be content with "Echo's" decent performances and upbeat outlook.
Indeed these are its sole redeeming values; while all the teen actors come across as genuine and likable, Reese Hartwig is especially strong as Munch, and so is Ella Wahlestedt as Emma, who proves vital to the boys' quest; she's refreshingly "ungirly" - though I felt she acquiesced too quickly to the devastation of her tidy bedroom.
And even though I've insulted the film's preadolescent mindset, that also helps sustain interest - the "we'll-never-die" fortitude that finally enables their success.
Which then elicits the following moral, pronounced upon their separation: "Distance is just a state of mind; if you're best friends, then you always will be, no matter where you are in the universe."
Sigh. How I wish this were as true as it sounds.
Like much else here, it will nonetheless resonate with its target audience; for those who prefer more realistic preteen capers, Stick with "Stand by Me."
3 stars out of 4
Rated PG for some action and peril, and mild language.

Key points
• Meat Loaf, Mtley Cre and Status Quo among stars rejected by Live 8
• Concerts to take place in London, France, Germany, Italy and USA on 2 July
• Geldof rejects criticisms that Live 8 line-up is an all white affair
Key quote
"Three weeks ago Europe agreed, unbelievably, to double aid, throwing the ball back to the Yanks, the Japanese and the Canadians. So that forced me to do, which I didn't want to do, concerts in Tokyo and Toronto, which we are announcing tomorrow" - Sir Bob Geldof, Live 8 organiser
Story in full HUNDREDS of top musicians are facing disappointment after the Live 8 organisers reportedly turned down 65 bands that wanted to play the flagship concert in London next month.
Major acts such as Meat Loaf, Motley Crue and Status Quo, who opened Live Aid at Wembley Stadium 20 years ago, are among those who have been rejected by Harvey Goldsmith, the promoter. He said: "We simply don't have room for them."
While acts such as Travis and Snow Patrol will play Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on 6 June - the first day of the G8 summit at Gleneagles - the likes of Ozzy Osbourne and the Spice Girls are unlikely to appear.
The Hyde Park line-up, which includes U2, Madonna and Pink Floyd, who have reformed for the first time in 20 years, has been criticised by Damon Albarn, the lead singer of Blur, for failing to include any acts from Africa. Sir Bob Geldof, however, has insisted it is a political event, not a cultural event and that the biggest acts will attract the largest global audience.
Among those who have turned down invitations to appear are the Rolling Stones and David Bowie.
Status Quo famously opened the original Live Aid concert in 1985 with their hit Rockin' All Over The World. Yesterday their lead singer, Francis Rossi, said they were "desperate" to play at Hyde Park. "We're going to be there if they want us to," he said. "We want to make it clear we are desperate for this gig."
A further three concerts are to be held in Tokyo, Toronto and Johannesburg, taking the total number to be held on Saturday, 2 July, to eight. Geldof said: "Three weeks ago Europe agreed, unbelievably, to double aid, throwing the ball back to the Yanks, the Japanese and the Canadians. So that forced me to do, which I didn't want to do, concerts in Tokyo and Toronto, which we are announcing tomorrow. We will also announce Johannesburg tomorrow, which will be Live 8 Africa, which Mandela, if he is well enough, will bring to the world."
Speaking in Dublin, however, he denied rumours that Michael Jackson, who was this week found not guilty of child sex abuse, might attempt to rehabilitate his career by performing at Live 8.
Geldof said the singer had not approached the organisers and, if he did, "I'd say 'Dude, there's plenty of time. I don't think you should really put yourself through something as strenuous as Live 8 at such a fragile stage in your life'."
While 150,000 people will squeeze into a fenced-off area for the London concert, giant screens are to be set up in different parts of 350-acre Hyde Park, which will mean more than half a million people will be able to see the show. Screens will also be erected in Birmingham, Manchester and at other locations, including Inverness Caledonian Thistle's stadium.
Geldof again urged people to head to Scotland for the G8 summit and said he was not concerned about security in Edinburgh, with hundreds of thousands of campaigners set to descend on the city.

The top reason for drug candidate attrition is not poor efficacy as one might expect but rather unacceptable toxicity, highlighting the need to identify drug-induced toxicity in the early stages of drug development. The challenge is to identify and validate sensitive and specific biomarkers that can detect drug-induced organ damage early in exposure and also fulfill the requirements of regulatory authorities.
In the pharmaceutical and chemical industry, the kidney is routinely assessed during preclinical safety evaluations. The role of the kidney as a central detoxification organ leads to a high exposure of renal tissue to drugs, reactive metabolites, or environmental compounds. Traditional markers for assessing renal toxicity, such as blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr), have low sensitivity. Although both are direct measurements of renal function, serum concentrations of these biomarkers increase only after substantial renal injury, demonstrating a clear need for improved biomarker assays to detect damage earlier.
The Predictive Safety Testing Consortium (PSTC) was formed in 2006 to support the development of new biomarkers. PSTC encourages pharmaceutical companies to share and validate innovative safety testing methods that can be submitted for formal regulatory qualification by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), the EMA (European Medicines Agency), and the PMDA (Japanese Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency). This is a major step forward to establishing improved cross-industry methods that are applicable throughout the drug development spectrum and can be independently validated and accepted as proof of safety by regulatory authorities.
The first project of the PSTC identified eight effective rat urinary biomarkers, including KIM-1 (Kidney Injury Molecule 1) and clusterin, that were endorsed by FDA and EMA for the detection of acute kidney toxicity during nonclinical drug development. Rat urinary KIM-1 and clusterin can be detected by ELISA, but this method has a number of disadvantages, including narrow dynamic range, large sample consumption (particularly problematic in preclinical work with small laboratory animals), and long assay times and hands-on time, especially when a large number of samples need to be analyzed.
EMD Millipore has overcome these weaknesses with new kits for rat urinary KIM-1 and clusterin based on a nanoliter-scale immunoassay platform developed by Gyros AB. This combination of fit-for-purpose assay kits and an automated high-throughput immunoassay platform using small sample volumes offers the potential for a sensitive robust method with significant advantages.
Gyrolab™ xP workstation performs automated immunoassays within nanoliter-scale microfluidic structures in a compact disk (CD) format. Each structure on the Bioaffy CD comprises a 15-nanoliter affinity column prepacked with Streptavidin-coated particles, supporting a variety of assay types including sandwich and indirect antibody assays.
Working at the nanoliter scale means that the consumption of sample and reagents is dramatically reduced compared with plate-based ELISA. Apart from obvious cost-saving advantages of reducing use of expensive reagents, the availability of sample, often taken from small laboratory animals, can become a limiting factor with ELISA, especially as regulatory demands drive the need to perform an increasing number of analyses on each sample.
The microfluidics ensure controlled flow of capture reagents, sample, and detection reagents, so that all samples within a single CD are processed in parallel. Parallel processing eliminates time-dependent artifacts that may arise in a typical plate-based ELISA and ensures that samples are processed under uniform conditions. Each individual microstructure equates to one data point, thus eliminating cross talk. The control and analysis software is 21 CFR part 11 compliant and gives flexibility in run setup and data analysis, ensuring that assays can be developed and transferred through to GMP and GLP environments.
Using Gyrolab xP workstation, EMD Millipore developed and validated fit-for-purpose GyroMark™ HT Kits for rat urinary KIM-1 and clusterin that had the following properties:
• High linearity over a broad dynamic range (Figure 1)
• High sensitivity with LLOQ down to 0.02 ng/mL
• Target detection of spiked control in rat urine samples = 80–120%
• Minimal matrix effects, with minimum required dilutions as low as 1:2
• Dilutional linearity accuracy well within acceptance criteria over a broad dilution range
• Inter- and intra-assay precision in the 3.6–8.6% range
The results confirmed that the combination could indeed be suitable for studying drug-induced nephrotoxicity. The results from GyroMark HT kits also correlated very well with those from an alternative method—MILLIPLEX® MAP multiplex assays based on Luminex® technology.

By Jim Roy
Well, it's been a couple months and five tournaments since I've been on the Champions Tour and I've had middle-of-the-road success but an enjoyable start.
I've seen my name on the leaderboard in two events, shot three rounds in the mid-60s and, oddly, I've even been recognized by some fans I didn't know because of a profile that was done on me in the May issue of Golf Digest by Dave Kindred. They asked me to sign copies of the article.
Oh, and I've even overcome my first travel problem, a dreaded bout with Montezuma's revenge that put a damper on my trip to the Dominican Republic. That cost me about seven pounds in lost weight, but at least the golf gods were kind to me. I was fine while I was on the golf course; it only hit me before and after the day's round. Strangely, I had my best finish of the season. (And by the way, no, I didn't drink the water!)
Right now, I'm starting to play with some confidence. I think I'm getting close and have a feeling that something good will happen in the next few weeks.
It helped this past week in Tampa (Fla.) that I played the first two rounds with Wayne Levi, who's from New Hartford. We had a nice following, including a lot people from Central New York.
It's good to learn from a veteran like Wayne, who won 12 times on the PGA Tour. He has such great tempo and hits about 90 percent of the fairways. When I hit a couple of the squirrely drives I'm famous for, he would just kind of look at me and say, "What's it like over there?" He wouldn't know, but I think golf would be pretty boring playing from the short grass all the time.
For the tournament, the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am, I finished tied for 44th after rounds of 73 and 72. I was bitten by the double-bogey bug twice when I hit shots into water hazards. But on the bright side, I was 1-under par for 34 holes and 4-over for those other two. That's what I mean when I say I think I'm getting close.
The most important thing that is happening is that I'm starting to believe that I can play out here. I can't say that I'm 100 percent cocky about that, but I have had some limited success. My name was on the leaderboard after a first-round 66 in Boca Raton and after a second-round 67 in the Dominican Republic.
The two areas where I'm falling short is I'm not taking advantage of enough of my birdie chances – I'm averaging about three birdies per round, while the top players like Freddie Couples and Bernhard Langer average about six – and I've had a few double bogeys that I really need to hold to bogeys.
I'm ranked 54th on the money list right now with $44,979 in winnings. That's middle of the pack. I've had a top finish of T-23 in the Dominican Republic, but I certainly think top-10 finishes are possible for me.
Where I stand as far as playing ability goes is hard to say. Certainly when Freddie or Bernhard shoot 19-, 20- or 21-under par for three rounds, it makes me wonder how they could do that. I was playing the same course and the thought of shooting those numbers never crossed my mind.
But golf is so funny. If on a given week my putter is going well, would it shock me to contend? Not at all.
I'm off this week because I'm not eligible to play in the event in Savannah, Ga. It's reserved for guys who won on the PGA Tour. But I'm excited about the tournaments that are coming up.
I'll be driving to Mississippi to play in Biloxi next week and then, after coming back to Syracuse for a few days, will be going down to Birmingham, Ala., for a tournament May 14-16.
After that, I'm hopeful that I'll get to play in the Senior PGA Championship in Denver. The eligibility guidelines say you have to be in the top 50 on the money list to play, but the guys have told me that in the past couple of years, a few players within the top 90 have made it in.
So, I probably will get in that way, but I'd rather just take care of any doubt by having one or two good finishes. As I said before, I think I'm close and I have a feeling that something good is going to happen in the next few weeks.
Stay tuned.

Those who were unable to see the Christmas program put on by the folks from Paramount Baptist Church, "It's a Wonderful Life," missed a blessing.
We never have been to a Broadway production. But none can be performed any better than by these folks. You can tell it is from the heart and soul from everyone in the play.
We applaud not only the cast, but also those who carried all the props and scenery from the church to the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts, the stage hands who changed all the props and scenery, the people who took care of the lights, musicians and people behind the scenes. Praise also goes to the steering committee and the wonderful seamstress who made all the beautiful costumes.
And thanks to those who were responsible for taking all the scenery and props down after the final curtain and getting them back to the church.
Thanks to all of you for a fabulous performance.
Deane and Eva Martin

I wish we could interview an Official that was there at the congress and ask about the atmoshphere and the LONG discussion about the pros and cons of anonymous judging.
This is not my view but something a friend said as a joke :P
Russia voted for abolition because they worried S.Korea would deny them OGM at 2018.
S.Korea voted for its retention because they want to deny Russia OGM at 2018.
What was the proposal about the Reverse order draw that did not pass?
LOL at this. Why do the federations with no power vote for anonymous judging, that will not do any good to their skaters..That's sooo strange. And that KSU, are they planning for a revenge, they don't care about fs at all as you can see.
It's becoming hilarious to see some of you guys going too far and conveniently assuming that Korean fed is a villan, and treating them as if somehow they already committed to an evil action even though KSF has not done anything harm to other fed/skaters. In gpf, 4cc in Korea, winners were Japanese, even when Yuna was a heavy favorite. As far as I know, there has been ZERO scandal in Korean soil. And Pyoungchang is in 4 years. NOTHING happened yet.
I am all against anonimous judging, and deeply dissappointed at KSF's decision. But it is indeed presumptuous to assume that Korean fed will take their vengence by bribing all the judges to prevent Russians to win etc. , using anonymous judging. why, really why will they do that with their own money?
One thing I can say for sure is that, Pyoungchang will be covered by Yuna Kim(her interviews, images etc) and all of koreans will treat her as a double gold medalist (based on their reaction and news article, and in my heart she is the double gold medalist) whether you like it or not. That may be their own way of revenge.
The motion about reverse order also failed to pass.
Something that did pass was that the program components for dance are set to increase.

The road to Hollywood success is clogged with fast-lane types, but seldom has L.A. run up against a hard charger like Bruce Penhall. At 25, his clean-cut features make him look, as one observer puts it, "like a new, improved Robert Redford." He already is a millionaire who can indulge his latest passion—offshore powerboat racing in a handcrafted $375,000 machine expected to reach 120 mph—or buy a black BMW 635 and have it performance-tuned and reassembled for a mere $65,000. Two years ago he also became the first American in 44 years to win the World Speedway motorcycle racing championship, a title he successfully defended last year. After all that, Penhall may be the only one who doesn't see his role on NBC's cycle cop show CHiPs as anticlimactic. "I felt that I couldn't do much more with motorcycle racing," says Bruce, whose TV contract bars biker competitions. "CHiPs is like a breath of fresh air."
Maybe so, but Penhall's recent elevation from CHiPs cadet to Erik Estrada's riding partner is something of an ill wind for co-star Tom Reilly, 23. After replacing former CHiPs star Larry Wilcox this season, Reilly was busted for alleged drug possession (a single Quaalude) last December. His fortunes further declined due to reported on-set friction between CHiPs honcho Estrada, 34, and Reilly's entourage. Reilly's troubles mean more exposure for Penhall. "Bruce is a team player," says Erik. "You don't find many young actors like that. They're too busy trying to become overnight sensations."
Penhall's prominence certainly was hard-won, though he was born in Newport Beach, Calif. with racing in his blood. His wealthy father, Leroy, owned a large demolition company and "raced everything—motorcycles, Indy-type cars, flat-bottomed boats, prop planes and finally F-86 jets," Penhall recalls. Bruce himself began to race cycles at 12 and turned pro at 16. Then came the family tragedy that marked his life. Returning from a 1975 vacation at Mammoth Lakes ski resort, Penhall's parents were killed when their private plane (the family once owned 10 jets) crashed on takeoff. "No one knows what happened," says Bruce. "I woke up every morning crying, wondering what I would do without them." After he, his brother and sister scattered their parents' ashes over the ocean off Newport Beach, Penhall made a resolution. "I decided," he says, "that I wanted to win the world motorcycle championship as a memorial to them." He lived in Birmingham, England, a hotbed of the sport, for five years to accomplish his goal.
The garage at his $350,000 Manhattan Beach bachelor home is crammed with cycle trophies, but women apparently find the 5'8", 145-pound Penhall just as racy when he's standing still. His girlfriends include actress Kim Richards, 18, once the daughter in ABC's Nanny and the Professor, Terry McQueen, 23 (Steve's daughter), and Little House's Melissa Gilbert, soon 19. "I look at him and say, 'You're so stupid, you could hurt yourself,' " admits Melissa, who is concerned about Bruce's plans to race his speedboat off Miami this month. "But he's very determined, stubborn and strong. If he wants to be the best, he'll be the best."
Even as an actor. Penhall has hired two acting coaches and will take singing and dancing lessons during CHiPs' summer hiatus. "He's devoted his life to it," says Melissa. "Acting's not like racing, which he knows he can win." Penhall isn't plagued by doubts about his prospects. "I'm hard-working and easy to get along with," Bruce grins. "And besides—I'm a terrible loser."

5 Ways To Make A Great First Impression (Career Advice)
Research findings show that a firm handshake characterized by strength, good eye contact, and a completeness of grip, leaves a positive impact.
By Kelly Studer (Career Stylist, Kelly Studer Consulting)
At one point or another, we've all had an experience meeting someone new and not have it pan out the way we thought it would. Without even realizing it, we may have left a poor first impression and it's hard to change someone's mind about us once this has happened.

trying in POCO/code-first to create the following schema:
createtable Customer (
Id intIDENTITY(1,1) notnullprimarykey,
Namenvarchar(50) notnull,
/* More customer detail columns... */
DefaultShippingContactId intnull
createtable Contact (
Id intIDENTITY(1,1) notnullprimarykey,
CustomerId intnotnull,
Namenvarchar(50) notnull,
/* address/... details */
altertable Contact addconstraint Contact_Id_CustomerId foreignkey (customerid) references Customer (Id)
altertable Customer addconstraint Constomer_DefaultShippingContactId_ContactId foreignkey (DefaultShippingContactId) references Contact (Id)
That is: DefaultShippingAddressId can identify one of the customer's contacts to use as a default.
The code first should have entity types like:
class Customer {
publicint Id { get; set; }
publicstring Name { get; set; }
// ...publicvirtual ICollection<Contact> Contacts { get; set; }
publicvirtual Contact DefaultShippingContact { get; set; }
class Contact {
publicint Id { get; set; }
publicstring Name { get; set; }
// ...publicvirtual Customer { get; set; }
class Contact : DbContext {
protectedoverridevoid OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder) {
What goes here?
But everything I try in the fluent interface fails to give me what I want. Even accepting that Customer.DefaultShippingContact is required (because I can't use WithOptional(customer => customer.DefaultShippingContact).WithRequiredDependent(contact =>
contact.Customer) as it results in the FK in the wrong direction...
Is this scenario possible? If it is, then how?
(Having a IsDefault property on Contact would work, but would require code to validate that only one contact is default per customer.)
Answer 1
You should be able to create a schema of this form with a couple of caveats.
Something like this should put the FKs where you want them:
.HasMany(c => c.Contacts)
.WithRequired(c => c.Customer)
.Map(m => m.MapKey(c => c.Id, "CustomerId"));
.HasOptional(c => c.DefaultShippingContact)
The caveats are:
There is currently no way to change the name of the FK for the second relationship, so it will be called "ContactId" rather than "DefaultShippingContactId".
We hope to rectify this for RTM.
Since you are not mapping FKs into your model you are using "independent associations".
Independent associations make certain things like n-tier scenarios, data binding, and concurrency resolution very hard, and also have some quirky behaviors.
Usually it is better to map FKs if possible even though it detracts from the pure OO nature of your classes.
Answer 2
Thanks, that works. Including when extended to a Customer.DefaultBillingContact as well.
Re: Caveat 2: That seems a good reason to include Contact.CustomerId then (and note that it should generally not be used in code).
Re: Caveat 1: Being able to use an explicit property for the FK (and name the key in the db) would be appreciated. Having columns "ContactId" and "ContactId1" doesn't make for supportability or maintainability (or, I expect, happy DBAs).

Product DescriptionVastly different than Smith & Wesson's top break revolvers, the Hand Ejector models require the user to depress a plunger to eject spent casings. The Smith and Wesson .32 Hand Ejector was the first Smith and Wesson revolver to employ the side-opening cylinder. Smith & Wesson is known for their high-quality revolvers and that reputation was well-earned from the very beginning. Like many handguns of its day, the .32 Hand Ejector is designed for long rounds, so shooters can use the same ammo for their rifles. This Second Change revolver features a blade front sight with a rear groove and black synthetic grips. Its grips are in good condition and its metal and bore are in fair condition.

This answer was rated:
Almost two weeks ago my 12 year old pit bull experienced three grand mal seizures in 12 hours. She has since then had an MRI and spinal tap. The spinal tap came back normal however, the MRI showed two brain lesions. She is currently taking 90 mg of phenobarbital daily as well, as 0.75 mg of Dexamethasone two times a day. In addition, she has also been in kidney failure for three years. The other day my husband noticed her cheeks looked slightly sunken in. This evening I noticed how severely sunken in her face looks. We are both very concerned as this seems to have come out of no where. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Aloha! You're speaking with Dr. Michael Salkin
I'm sorry to hear of this with your Pit Bull. You've described a syndrome called
facial muscle wasting
- atrophy of the muscles of mastication, mainly the temporal and masseter muscles.
There are quite a few etiologies for this syndrome. There are idiopathic (unknown cause) etiologies such as trigeminal neuropathy (cranial nerve V disorder); infectious etiologies such as toxoplasmosis and neosporosis - both rare; immune-mediated etiologies such as systemic lupus erythematosus, idiopathic polymyositis, and masseter muscle myositis; iatrogenic etiologies such as glucocorticoid administration (her dexamethasone?!); metabolic etiologies such as Cushing's disease and cardiac cachexia (wasting); neoplasia (malignancy) - which is an important consideration because two brain lesions have been seen; and disuse atrophy due to TMJ problems (unlikely in this case).
By the principle of Occam's Razor we should incriminate the brain lesions but a careful physical exam - particularly a neurologic exam - is necessary to clarify why facial muscle wasting has occurred. It would be prudent to ask her neurologist if the lesions seen in her brain are in areas where her facial muscles might be affected.
Please respond with further questions or concerns if you wish.

Thank you for your prompt and very thorough reply.
The MRI showed a focal lesion within the left frontal lobe of the brain, with a smaller focal lesion affecting the caudal vermis on the right. Could the location of the aforementioned lesions be consistent with what you are describing?
Dr. Michael Salkin
replied 3 years ago.
No, I wouldn't expect so. The caudal vermis of the cerebellum is involved with posture and locomotion. The frontal lobes are involved with motor functions and higher order functions such as reasoning, planning, and memory. Once lesions expand, however, the pressure exerted on other parts of the brain can confound our understanding.
Her presentation is going to be a challenge to clarify. Many of the etiologies I mentioned are treated with corticosteroids such as dexamethasone! Please continue our conversation if you wish.

Thanks again for your input and expertise.
I will consult with her regular vet and neurologist as soon as possible.

Sounds good. I'm going to check back with you in a few days for an update. Feel free to return to our conversation - even after rating - prior to my contacting you if you wish.

May I have an update, please?

Thanks for checking in. We took our dog to our regular vet last Thursday. He was perplexed by the facial atrophy but suggested it may be due to pressure on a nerve. He didn't seem to think it was a result of the steroid because it happened so fast. He also ran a full CBC which showed significantly raised liver levels. Surprising since she's only been on the pb for just under two weeks. He was anxious for us to meet with the neurologist.
Well we met with the neurologist today. She thought the facial atrophy was due to the dexamethasone. She has cut her dose of the demo to once daily and suggested that we may consider halting that dose again in a week. Our dog has also lost 3.5 lbs in the last two weeks. We are waiting for the results of the pb levels. Our primary vet would like to cut the pb dose to 75 mg a day but the neurologist believes we should stick with 90 mg a day.
The dog does not appear to be in any pain and has quite an appetite and drinks lots of water. She doesn't want to play or go for walks. We worry about her happiness and struggle daily with the decision weather or not to put her down. How do you know when it's time to say goodbye?
Thanks in advance
Dr. Michael Salkin
replied 3 years ago.
Thank you for the update. I would listen to the specialist. I hold them in high regard.
I predicate the decision to euthanize on my patient's quality of life. If they're not having fun anymore - if they can't do the things they used to do - they become anxious and depressed. Dogs don't have any conception of lifespan and so there's no fear in that regard. They are emotional, however, and their response to illness and incapacitation is an important clue for me when I discuss their prognosis and how to move forward. There's no denying that the decision to let go is difficult. It should be but when my owners have been kind to their pets all their pet's life, the final kindness should be considered when it's appropriate to do so.

1969 Jimi Hendrix Original Concert Poster
Starting Bid - $500.00, Sold For - $812.00
Rare and exquisite concert poster promoting an appearance of The Jimi Hendrix Experience on Friday, May 2, 1969 at the Cobo Arena in Detroit, Michigan. This richly colored poster features stylized portraits of Jimi Hendrix, Noel Redding, and Mitch Mitchell surrounded by a three-dimensional design of stars, clouds, and rainbows, with naked women flanking the study. Note the insanely cheap (by today's standards) ticket prices ranging from $3.50 to $6.60. Now THOSE were the days! They opened the night with "Fire" then went on to perform "Spanish Castle Magic," "Foxy Lady," "I Don't Live today," "Sunshine of Your Love," "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)," and closed with "Red House." It was reported that the packed crowd was "managed" by a huge contingent of police officers who forced the entire audience to remain seated for the duration of the show. The poster is professionally and archival linen-backed. Several minor creases and cracks have little impact on the overall Excellent appearance and beauty of this exceptionally attractive 1960s advertising display. As the years pass, the legend of Jimi Hendrix continues to grow. Significant material related to his brief and brilliant tenure is rare, important, and highly prized. This is a superb example of one of the premier Hendrix display pieces and a great example of vintage rock artwork. Dimensions: 14 x 22 inches. Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000/$1,500. SOLD FOR $812.00

SOUTH CHARLESTON - Elkins once again received dominating pitching in Little League 11-12-year-old state tournament as three pitchers contributed to keep Pineville hitless in an 11-1 win Tuesday night at Little Creek Park.
Jessie Williams, Read Schumacher and Jonathan Phillips combined for 17 strikeouts on the night, and only two Pineville batters put the ball into play, both coming on groundouts in the sixth inning.
The victory gave Elkins the Pool B championship and it will face the loser of today's Pool C contest between Martinsburg and Barboursville at 6 p.m. Thursday when the tournament switches to a single-elimination format.
"To get another no-hitter in the state tournament is quite an accomplishment for our pitchers," Elkins manager Jim Gainer said. "But we need to start hitting the ball or we're not going to go much further in the tournament.
"That's a real concern because the level of competetion will increase starting on Thursday."
In a game that was delayed twice due to lightning and finished close to 11:30 p.m., Elkins took control early, striking for six runs over the first two innings.
Beau Bright had an RBI single and Phillips a run-producing double in the first, while three Pineville errors, a two-run double by Schumacher and an RBI single by Bright accounted for the second-inning tally.
Jessie Williams, meanwhile, dominated on the mound, striking out seven of the first eight batters he faced before giving way to Schumacher in the third inning.
Pineville scored its lone run and the first allowed by Elkins pitching in the tournament when Tanner Hall drew a bases-loaded walk in the third.
Schumacher finished with five strikeouts in 1 2/3 innings. Phillips fanned five batters during his time on the hill.
Elkins broke the game open in the sixth with five more runs. Phillips and Grant Simmons had RBI fielder's choices and Elliott White added a two-run single. Another run crossed on a throwing error.
Bright and White each had two hits for the winners.
"Our goal was to get the highest possible seed coming out of pool play and we accomplished that," Gainer said.
"Whover we face on Thursday will be a big challenge. Both of those teams are very good and we have to come out and play our best to be successful."
Evan Preece, Preston Breeden, Hall and Tyler Bradford all saw time on the hill for Pinesville. Breeden relived Preece in the second and struck out four and didn't allow a hit in 3 1/3 innings.
Pinesville will face Bridgeport today with the winner advancing to the single-elimination tourney as the Pool B runner-up.
