Dr. Bonni Guerin, Overlook Medical Center, will present "the Role of Immunotherapy in the Treatment of Melanoma and Kidney Cancers" at a discussion held at the Fiorino Ristorante (include complimentary dinner) at 38 Maple St., in Summit on Thursday, Jan. 24, at 6:30 p.m.
More than 53,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with melanoma every year. Currently, it's considered thefastest growing cancer, both in the U.S.and worldwide, especially among young adults between the ages of 20 and 30. While melanoma is very treatable when caught in the early stages, it is the cause of almost 8,000 deaths annually.
Similarly, more than 36,000 people in the United States are affected each year by renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer). Although kidney cancer was first reported in 1826, scientists have not yet conclusively determined its cause. It occurs in almost twice as many men as women, and most often develops after the age of 40, however the disease has been seen in children as young as six months old.
Biological agents, also called immunotherapy, are treatments that stimulate or restore the ability of the immune system to fight the cancer. There are several substances that boost, direct or restore normal immune defenses and include interferons, interleukins, vaccines and monoclonal antibodies. Interleukin-2 (Proleukin®) is a biologic agent that has been approved for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and renal cell carcinoma.
Long-term results from a clinical trial evaluating high-dose Interleukin-2 in patients with metastatic melanoma indicate that high-dose Interleukin-2 remains an extremely effective treatment option for a subset of patients with metastatic melanoma.
Interleukin-2 is the only therapy for metastatic kidney cancer proven to offer the chance to have no evidence of disease over the long-term. In clinical studies, some patients have shown no evidence of disease beyond 10 years.

From staff reports
BRIDGETON -- City officials have closed municipal court for the day following two phoned-in threats directed at the judge this afternoon, according to police.
"The threat seemed to be directed toward the municipal court judge for Bridgeton," Bridgeton Police Detective Lt. Michael Gaimari said. "But it was never directed by name."
Police are providing security for Judge Steven Neder.
The threatening calls were received at the county 911 center at 1:14 and 2:13 p.m., according to police. City hall was evacuated and searched by a Cumberland County Sheriff's Department K-9 both times.
The first call included a threat against the judge, while the second informed authorities that the first call was not a hoax, Gaimari said.
Police believe the same person may have made both calls and have identified a "solid suspect," according to Gaimari.
"Whoever called the second time obviously was familiar with the first occurrence ... either that or was familiar with the fact that we had to evacuate after the first one," he said.
Officials decided to close court for the day following the second threat.
Updates will be posted as they become available.

Silas Redd announced on Tuesday that he will transfer from Penn State to Southern California.
Here is a statement he made to the media:
This has obviously been a very busy, emotionally draining week for me and my family. As many of you know, playing football at Penn State has been a dream of mine since I was seven years old, and I will be forever grateful that this dream became a reality. This is the reason that the decision I have made is so difficult for me: I will transfer to USC to complete my education and my college football career, beginning in the 2012-2013 year. Penn State gave me a phenomenal opportunity to become part of a legendary football program. My teammates, my coaches – past and present – and the staff have provided me with a tremendous amount of guidance and support since I arrived on campus, and I can't thank them enough for their time, their advice, and their friendship. They have given me such a strong foundation from which I can continue to grow.

Account determination for entry 1000 GBB 0001 ___ 7920 not possible
Message no. M8147
The system did not find an account for this transaction. This means that the account determination for key 1000 GBB 0001 ___ 7920 is not maintained in MM Customizing (Valuation). The key is made up of:
Chart of account
Transaction key (= Posting transaction)
Valuation grouping code
Account grouping code
Valuation class
System Response
The system cannot update a G/L account for this transaction. You cannot post the transaction.
Contact your system administrator.
If you have the authorization, check the Account determination in Customizing for Valuation.
The relevant posting transaction can be found in Table T030A.
Go to OBYC
Double Click on GBB
GIve the Chart of Accounts
For the appropriate General Modifier, maintain the GL account for the valuation class 7920.
Hi Mike,
Thanks for your post. All the Account modifiers and val.class7920 combination is in place and GL accounts have also been created. The main hitch here is that, the system is unable to identify the "Account Modifier" itself and hence we are unable to know which account modifier has no GL assignment.
Analysed the issue with couple of consultants here who did the following to resolve the error. Sharing this on SDN so that anybody who encounters with the same error may find this information useful.
1. Inserted a new entry in GBB leaving "Account Modifier" as "Blank" and assigned the GL
2. The error message in MIGO changed to u201CAccount determination for entry 1000 WIP not possibleu201D
3. Assigned WIP account under transaction Key "WIP" in OBYC
4. MIGO Posted successfully.
However, can you confirm whether this is as per the Best Practice? Though the current error has gone, Is this config. setting of OBYC advisable and stands correct?
Awaiting your views.
Though the issue has been answered, you can still post your views on the solution cited by me.
Can you explain what was the transaction you were trying to post through MIGO? The account modifier would depend upon the transaction.
Hi Mike,
It was sub contracting scenario with movement type 101 & "GR for sales ord.st."
With Regards
Valuation Grouping Together with TCode OMWD
Suppose give XX
And Account Assignment is TCode OBYC
Value Group XX, Valuation Class Modifier AUF or AUM, GL Ac
Hope you ll solve

Klein Dytham architecture won the T-Site commission in a 2 stage invited competition. 77 architects were invited to submit proposals and KDa made it to the final selection with Kengo Kuma, Atelier Bow Wow, Mikan Gumi and Kumiko Inui, before winning the project in the final round.
KDa's new Daikanyama T-Site is a campus-like complex for Tsutaya, a giant in Japan's book, music, and movie retail market. Located in Daikanyama, an up-market but relaxed, low-rise Tokyo shopping district, it stands alongside the legendary Hillside Terrace buildings designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Fumihiko Maki.
Slotted between large existing trees on the site, the three pavilions are organized by a "magazine street" that threads through the complex, blurring interior and exterior. Tailored particularly to over-50 "premium age" customers, Tsutaya's normal product range is complimented by a series of boutique spaces carrying carefully curated product ranges.
Other facilities include a café, an upscale convenience store, and the Anjin lounge, where visitors can browse a library of classic design magazines and books or peruse artworks for sale as they eat, drink, read, chat, or relax. Externally, KDa's characteristic wit emerges in subtle ways – the perforated screens of the façade are formed from the Ts of the Tsutaya logo, and much larger T-shapes are disguised in the building plans and elevations.

Medical science is an intricately detailed tapestry of evidence, woven over many decades, from tens of thousands of hypotheses and observations. Astute observers rarely discern the tapestry's pattern from single studies; they know that a single study seldom allows people to see a pattern that changes insight and clinical practice. Far more often, medical practice changes only after a body of evidence accumulates to the point of revealing meaningful patterns. Recognizing the central role of evidence synthesis in shaping standards for clinical practice, Annals places a high priority on publishing up-to-date summative articles. This editorial offers advice for review artisans who hope to see their wares on display in Annals. In an accompanying supplement sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (part 2 of this issue), authors from the North American Evidence-based Practice Centers offer detailed advice on how to do systematic reviews, how to compile evidence reports, and how to handle the many methodologic challenges involved in writing systematic reviews.
Please read the other comments before posting. Contributors must reveal any conflict

If we are to continue to enjoy the relative quiet, laid-back atmosphere still existing in Duvall and keep intact what is left of the untouched beautiful country that surrounds us here, Mayor Kuntz needs to know how we feel.
The rate at which Duvall has been "declining" since Mayor Kuntz has presided over Duvall is alarming. But he's not operating on his own. This growth is backed by more than the mayor.
Those of us opposing the direction Duvall is heading toward are probably the least likely to voice our opinions about it, and the best way to be heard is to be seen the first Tuesday of every month (11:45 a.m.) at the City Council meeting. At the very least, a letter to the mayor (P.O. Box 1300) would be an effective alternative to the inaction which is quickly changing Duvall as we know and love it.
Your opinion counts.
Rebecca Harter, Duvall

Garfield, who had been Ricky's best friend, actually took his collar off when he passed (the other two didn't have collars at the time) and carried it around with her for the longest time.

Two Teen Boys Found Dead with Can of Four LokoCarolyn Castiglia
The makers of Four Loko, the so-called "blackout in a can," have been under siege for the past several months, after the hospitalizations and deaths of college students who drank Four Loko became public this fall. In November, right after New York State banned the sale of Four Loko, the makers of the caffeinated alcoholic beverage announced that they would remove caffeine from the ingredient list. Even without caffeine, Four Loko is dangerous; one can contains the alcohol equivalent of three cans of beer. The sale of Four Loko has been banned in 13 states.
Which is probably why the LA Times is focusing on the presence of a can of Four Loko at a crime scene in Huntington Beach, where 15-year-old Aaron Saenz and 16-year-old Chelsea Taylor were found dead Friday "with an empty can of an alcoholic energy drink and traces of drug and alcohol use." As of this morning, police were still looking for answers in this tragic case. "We're trying to determine if there was anyone with them that evening, how they obtained the alcohol and what kind of drugs they might have used," Lt. Russell Reinhart said.
Police believe there was no foul play involved in the deaths of these teens, rather that they accidentally overdosed. According to the LA Times, "Autopsies were conducted on the teens Monday but the cause of their deaths remained under investigation." The teens' consumption of Four Loko is clearly not the only cause of death in this case, but this incident will likely put Four Loko under scrutiny from lawmakers once again. Phusion Projects, the makers of Four Loko, have devoted an entire section of their website to responsible drinking, and maintain that they "have a vested interest in the safe and responsible consumption of (their) products by adults of legal drinking age." The have pledged to "market (their) products only to adults 21 and over" and say, "If you're under 21, respect the law and don't drink."
The sale of Four Loko is not prohibited in California. What do you think? Should Four Loko should be banned nationwide?

SUNY Upstate forum examines 'Public Health and the Drug War' Jan. 17
Peter Christ, retired police captain from Tonawanda, N.Y., and Gene Tinelli, M.D., Ph.D., a faculty member at SUNY Upstate and an addiction psychiatrist at the Veterans Administration Medical Center, will present a free public presentation on "Public Health and the Drug War" Wednesday, Jan. 17 from noon to 1 p.m. in Room 9295 Weiskotten Hall, 766 Irving Ave., Syracuse.
Christ and Tinelli will discuss current belief that America is losing the war on drugs and speak on the public health implications for our present and future drug policies. They also will explore the ethical and moral dilemmas framing this issue.
Both speakers are members of ReconsiDer, an organization dedicated to harm-reduction and the search for alternatives to the drug war. The organization believes the drug war contributes to racism, wasteful government spending, over-crowded prisons and gun violence.
This presentation is part of the Faith and Values Forum sponsored by the Cooperative Campus Ministries Committee. Free pizza and soda will be available.

He has been unwell mainly diarrhea - on one occassion has a bit of blood in stool - on another occasion mucus in stool. He has had random rashes which only last a few hours on back thigh, knee and upper arm today he had a rash on his scrotum both sides only for 1-2 hrs then completely went away. He also has had random muscle pain and feeling sick - never a temperature. He has random pain in urethra at commencement of passing urine and end of urine then for lasts upto a couple of pain (sting). UTI ruled out by pathology. Please help

It will help if you could provide some further information:
Where was the rash of the shingles?
Was he placed on acyclovir?
Did he have the diarrhea from the beginning of this illness or did it develop later?
Has he had a blood count? If so, do you know the result?

shingles two spots on left side back and two spots on front in a row just under arm near nipple. The medication was Ezovir EZOVIR® for shingles contains the active ingredient famciclovir 250 grams. Yes he had dirrohea from before shingles came out. No blood count test result taken. The urethra sting lasts for upto 2 hrs after passing urine
Dr. D. Love
replied 2 years ago.
Very good. I know that various drugs are marketed under different brand names in different countries, but i could not find any listing for the spelling that you listed in the original question (eyzoir). However, the Ezovir (famciclovir) is in the same class as the acyclovir.
The most likely cause of this constellation of symptoms is that there has been an acute illness that has caused the diarrhea and associated symptoms, which then also precipitated the shingles outbreak. While some episodes of shingles can occur spontaneously, there are also some episodes of shingles that are precipitated by an acute illness, particularly an acute infection.
The most common cause of diarrhea would be a
infection, and viral infections can commonly have minor rashes and muscle aches. However, a viral infection of the gut would usually be improving by this point of time. Consequently, the next level of concern would be a bacterial or a parasitic infection of the gut. The usual method for diagnosis of a bacterial infection of the gut is a culture of the stool. There also are stool tests for common parasitic infections, but these are harder to detect, so it is recommended to repeat the test up to three times before relying on a negative test. A CBC also may be suggestive of what type of infection is present. You said that stool tests are pending, and this may clarify the diagnosis, although further stool tests may be needed. If these tests do not clarify the cause of the symptoms, then it may require an evaluation by a Gastroenterologist.
It sounds like he has been tested for the infections that can cause burning with urination, with the exception of a prostate infection, which would usually be diagnosed by physical examination.
While awaiting the stool tests, it may help to try to replenish the good germs in the gut, such as by eating yogurt with an active culture or a probiotic supplement. It also would be important to be drinking plenty of fluids to maintain hydration, offsetting the fluid loss from the diarrhea. Simplifying the diet to a clear liquid diet also can help ease the diarrhea.
If you have any further questions, please let me know.

he also has been experencing a sharp pain that comes and goes near a scar on his scrotum and also has tingling sensations on the inner knees that also come and go these symtoms have been present on and off for around 4 days now - tonight is the first better 'normal' stool. Would a 19yr old have infected prostate?
Dr. D. Love
replied 2 years ago.
If he has had his first normal stool, then that may be a sign that he is finally starting to mend. It certainly is not common for a 19 year old to have prostatitis, but it also is not common for a 19 year old to have shingles.
Ask Your Own Medical Question
replied 2 years ago.
he is worried it could be genital herpes given the symptoms do you think its a possibility? his Doctor hasn't thought so and has tried to convince my son that it isnt. The rash on his scrotum this morning disappeared within a couple of hours and has not come back.
Dr. D. Love
replied 2 years ago.
None of these symptoms are typical for genital herpes. The only symptom that could occur atypically from genital herpes is the urinary symptoms, as herpes can rarely affect the urethra, but even then, it usually would not cause symptoms that have persisted for this length of time, and it still would not explain the other symptoms.
As an aside, the famciclovir that was used for the shingles would also treat genital herpes.

At the start of free agency, the Jets' plan was to get linebackers Bart Scott or Ray Lewis and safety Jim Leonhard, all of whom played for the Ravens last year.
Sometimes the best-laid plans do work out.
Tuesday, the Jets signed Leonhard to a three-year deal after a few harrowing moments in which the Broncos made a late run at him. Financial terms of the contract weren't available.
The arrival of Leonhard, who doubles as a punt returner, completes the makeover of the Jets' formerly suspect secondary. Leonhard will start opposite Kerry Rhodes. Newly acquired two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Lito Sheppard and Pro Bowler Darrelle Revis will start at cornerback.
In Leonhard, Sheppard and Scott -- who signed a six-year, $48 million contract on Friday -- the Jets now have three new starters on a defensive unit that ranked 29th in the NFL in pass defense last season.
And the Jets aren't finished trying to raid the Ravens. They're also interested in Ravens veteran cornerback Corey Ivy, who visited on Friday. The team is also eyeing former Ravens defensive end Marques Douglas.
In Scott, and now Leonhard, new coach Rex Ryan has two players who can help teach his blitz-happy schemes and bring the in-your-face attitude to the defense that Ryan wants.
"I am extremely excited to become a New York Jet," said Leonhard in a statement. "Obviously, to be reunited with Coach Ryan and (Jets defensive coordinator Mike) Pettine on the defensive side of the ball is a great opportunity. I am really excited to get in there this first year with Coach Ryan and, hopefully, help do some great things."
Last season, Leonhard, a four-year veteran out of Wisconsin, stepped in for an injured Dawan Landry and had a career year. He finished with 69 tackles, one sack and one interception in 16 games (13 starts). He's a sure tackler and smart player who earned the respect of his teammates with his tenacious play.
As a punt returner, Leonhard (5-8, 186 pounds) averaged 11.6 yards on 20 returns and can catch the ball "in a hurricane," according to Ryan. The Jets plan to use him in that role to give a break to Pro Bowler Leon Washington, who will see an increase in rushing carries.
Meanwhile, Sheppard addressed the media Tuesday in a conference call with beat reporters. He expressed joy in getting out of Philadelphia and having the opportunity for a new start.
Sheppard, 27, earned Pro Bowl honors after the 2004 and 2006 seasons while with Philadelphia, where he played his first seven seasons. But he got into a contract dispute following the 2007 season and it got even uglier when the Eagles signed Asante Samuel to a big free-agent deal last offseason.
"Obviously, we saw things a little different and one thing led to another," said Sheppard. "The best thing for me, if I wanted to continue to play football, was to go elsewhere."
The Jets announced the re-signing of FB Tony Richardson.
Sheppard said he was named after a friend of his mother who is from the Philippines.
Tight end Billy Bajema (49ers) will visit the Jets this week, perhaps as early as Wednesday.

The Most Pointless Greatest Hits Collections
Getty Images
While the pick-and-choose nature of the digital market has almost rendered the Greatest Hits album obsolete, there are some career retrospectives which would have struggled to sell even if their respective record labels paid audiences to buy them. Here's a look at five compilations which would have been more suitably titled Greatest Hit.
Lou Bega – Beautiful World (A Little Collection Of Lou Bega's Best)
Borsalino hat-wearing Lou Bega joined the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias in the Latin pop explosion of 1999 with his irresistibly catchy cover of Perez Prado's "Mambo No. 5," reaching number one in nearly every country in continental Europe. But unlike his fellow hip-shakers, he miserably failed to sustain its success. Follow-up "Tricky, Tricky" peaked at a lowly No. 73 in the US while his last three albums even sank without trace in his native Germany, making 19 out of the 20 tracks on this 2013 compilation entirely surplus to requirements.
Crazy Frog – Best Of Crazy Hits
Incredibly, the computer-animated amphibian who terrorized pop in the mid-'00s with his impossibly irritating moped engine impersonation scored five UK Top 20 hits and two US Top 40 albums before he was thankfully retired. But released four years after making the leap from ringtone adverts to the charts, surely no-one would have been in the mood to hear 40, that's 40, examples of his ring-ding-ding brand of pop.
Tag Team – The Best Of
Atlanta hip-hop duo Tag Team didn't really make much effort to distance themselves from their one-hit wonder tag, re-recording 1993 US No. 2 hit "Whoomp! (There It Is)" twice a year later for Addams Family Values and the Houston Rockets, and then again in 1995 for an all-star Disney version. It also appears on this 2000 compilation three times, although how many people would sit through the other seventeen tracks to get to the House and Spanish mixes remains to be seen.
Hilary Duff – Most Wanted
Predating Miley, Selena and Demi's transition from the Disney Channel to the US Hot 100, tween favourite Hilary Duff has probably now earned the right to release a retrospective. Less so in 2005 when she was only two albums and two US Top 40 hits into her career. Amazingly, despite the fact that most of her fans would have only bought the majority of its material during the previous two years, Most Wanted reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
Chesney Hawkes – The Very Best Of Chesney Hawkes
Recently and unexpectedly heard in both of Duncan Jones' critically-acclaimed big-screen efforts, Moon and Source Code, Chesney Hawkes' "The One & Only" is one of the more cherished one-hit wonders of the early '90s. But having failed to bother the charts ever since, it still doesn't justify this 2005 20-track collection.

© Isabelle Francais/I-5 PublishingIf a hamster does not feel comfortable in his environment, he may start barbering his fur.
A: If your hamster is removing his hair, that is termed "barbering." Hamsters and other animals will do this for a variety of reasons and, sadly, there are many times that we run all of the diagnostic tests we have available and still cannot figure out why an animal barbers itself.
If the hair is being pulled out, the two major categories for this include physical reasons and psychological reasons. Physical reasons include parasites, bacterial infections, environmental skin irritants and organic disease. These are all reasons that a hamster may feel skin discomfort and chewing out the hair is one way for the hamster to relieve that discomfort. Psychological reasons include dominance by another hamster leading to displacement behavior of pulling out the hair. If your hamster feels "unsafe" in his enclosure or for whatever reason feels "uneasy" in his enclosure or surroundings, he may pull his hair out.

Businesses close, but Erie's Little Italy survives
On one corner sits Arnone's Bakery & Italian Deli, a mainstay of the neighborhood, now closed.
On another is Arnone's Italian Restaurant, also closed, with yellowed newspaper plastered on the doors.
Across the street is the shell of Gelateria Barbara, which once promised "the sweet taste of Italy without the passport." The store is empty now, save for a bistro table and three chairs.
The only business still open at the intersection of West 18th and Cherry streets -- the heart of Erie's historic Little Italy neighborhood -- is a car sales and service shop.
The recent closings are disappointing, said Sue Moyer, neighborhood manager for the Sisters of St. Joseph Neighborhood Network.
But, she said, they aren't an indication of a neighborhood in trouble. Walk a few blocks in any direction off busy West 18th Street and you see a still-vibrant section of the city.
"You realize people are still here," Moyer said. "They're still taking care of their homes. They're still invested in their neighborhood."
The Sisters of Saint Joseph Neighborhood Network at 425 W. 18th St. has, perhaps more than any other organization, taken ownership of Little Italy. In the past 12 years, the nonprofit has poured time, money and energy into revitalizing what was once a bustling neighborhood.
In the past year alone, the group -- working with neighbors and community partners and guided by a master plan -- has installed neighborhood surveillance equipment, painted three murals on businesses in the area, hung 20 flags identifying the neighborhood, started or completed eight facade renovations, and bought and maintained seven blighted properties with the help of state grant money.
It also started quarterly forums for businesses and landlords, created and installed five park benches that double as urban art, trimmed trees throughout the neighborhood and cleaned up a nearby park, among other accomplishments.
"It's definitely in the process of a transformation," Mayor Joe Sinnott said of the neighborhood.
The business closings won't stop that, Sinnott said.
"As that neighborhood continues to evolve, we expect there to be new businesses that the neighborhood will support as it becomes defined," he said.
The commitment of the people who live in the neighborhood has made a "big difference in the look and feel," said Kim Green, executive director of the Erie Redevelopment Authority. The authority has acquired numerous blighted properties in the area.
"They've really paid attention to it and it shows," Green said.
While much has been accomplished, much has yet to be done, said Rose Graham, executive director of the SSJ Neighborhood Network.
The nonprofit's future plans include the installation of new sidewalks on the north side of West 18th Street in 2014, paid for through state grant dollars, among other projects.
But Graham is also counting on the city -- and she means the residents, not government -- to invest in change as well. Little Italy might never be what it once was, she said, but she hopes it can be a vibrant, multicultural neighborhood that gives back to the community.
"We, the residents of our city, need to take back our neighborhoods," Graham said. "We need to take care of our properties."
Scott Corsale has seen the Little Italy transformation first hand: new facades, streetscape work, the community garden.
Through it all, the neighborhood has retained its character, said Corsale, one of the owners of International Bakery at 610 W. 18th St., another mainstay of the neighborhood.
"Not only is the city trying to make improvements, but the businesses, the community itself, is trying to make it look the way we feel," he said of the neighborhood. "We want it to look as good as it makes us feel."
Corsale said his business is thriving.
"We're doing as well as we've ever done," he said. "I have no complaints and I don't see any problems in the near future."
The SSJ Neighborhood Network would like to see new businesses just as committed to Little Italy to fill the void left by the closed ones.
One possibility -- and it is just that at the moment -- is that the organization could purchase Arnone's Bakery & Deli to make sure it doesn't fall into the same kind of blight and disrepair the organization has spent the past 12 years fighting against, Moyer said. But the group would rather find a buyer who would develop the site in a way that fits with the overall plan for the neighborhood, she said.
The nonprofit has ordered a title search as a first step. In the meantime, Graham chooses to see opportunity in the empty buildings at West 18th and Cherry streets.
"I see it as a great positive," Graham said. "It's like a painter having a slate to work with. We can reinvent it."

Freddy Garcia is a member of the New York Yankees' starting rotation...for now.
With Michael Pineda on the disabled list and Andy Pettitte working on a comeback, it's only a matter of time before Garcia becomes expendable.
Pettitte's expected to make his debut sometime in May, while Pineda will likely see time in the minors before he cracks the big league rotation.
Garcia told ESPNNew York he would accept a bullpen assignment, but I'm not entirely sure that there will be a spot for him when the time comes.
If the Yankees were to attempt and trade away the 35-year-old Garcia, they would likely be able to obtain a bench bat or a mid-level prospect in return.
Teams are always looking for pitching at the deadline, and Garcia could be a cheaper alternative to some other highly-priced hurlers.
Here are just a few teams that could come calling at the deadline.

Hepregen Corporation has announced the commercial launch of the Company's first application-oriented Rat HepatoPac™ kits designed specifically for use in metabolite identification and profiling.
A kit may be ordered that contains either Wistar-Hahn or Sprague-Dawley rat hepatocytes. Much like the recently introduced Hepregen Human HepatoPac™ kit, each of the kits provides customers with a plug-in-ready product, which includes live rat liver cells on a micro-patterned, standard 24-well tissue culture plate that remain fully functional for more than two months.
Data generated by the kits accurately predict the profile of drug metabolite generation in a species that is one of the most important in preclinical drug testing.
Moreover, when used in combination with its human liver cell counterpart early in the drug development process, the Human and Rat kits together provide data that helps select the best compounds to advance to pharmaceutical candidate status, mitigating development risks and lowering costs.
Dr. Vincent Zurawski, Hepregen's chief executive officer stated, "The launch of these application-specific kits provides our customers and preclinical CRO partners with a second fully validated option for accurately predicting the metabolic fate of candidate drugs and for evaluating the drug potential of predecessor compounds at all stages of product development. Using our rat and human kits together, drug developers can now evaluate how animal and human data will compare, increasing their confidence in the design of preclinical experiments and improving the efficiency of the drug development process."

Yeah Ive had a quick strange odd glitch. When Ratchet waters a plant that grows into a useful plant for the jumpable flower type the low one of course. Ratchet sometimes gets stuck under the petals and you cant move out from under that spot. So you have ended up have to reload your save game to get unstuck from under the low jumpable plant.
