Charlotte — Entering Saturday it had been 35 years since the UNC football team last won an ACC Championship.
That number will now go to 36, as the nation's number one team–the Clemson Tigers–defeated the No. 10 Tar Heels 45-37 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte behind an incredible effort from their star quarterback, sophomore Deshaun Watson.
Staking his claim for the Heisman Trophy, Watson absolutely annihilated UNC's defense all game long–to the tune of 420 total yards and five touchdowns. For his efforts, he also took home the game's MVP award.
Clemson now improves to 13-0 and will be a prime contender for the national championship.
The loss is the Tar Heels' first since opening week, and second in Bank of America Stadium this year.
At 11-2, head coach Larry Fedora and his team will now have to wait and see where they will be headed this bowl season–with a trip to the College Football Playoff ruled out of the question now.
"Just a hell of a ballgame tonight," Fedora said. "You know, Clemson was the better team tonight, and they did a heck of a job. Our guys fought all the way to the end and felt like we were in it all the way to the end. And I'm proud of the way we played."
Watson's counterpart, Tar Heel senior Marquise Williams, struggled mightily with the Tigers' pass rush. Pressured consistently throughout the night, Williams completed just 11 of his 33 passes for 224 yards. He threw for three touchdowns, but also threw a crucial interception with his team threatening to re-take the lead in the third quarter.
"It's tough,"Williams said. "Coming back into my hometown not being able to get a win.
"I'm excited the way we fought today," he continued. "A lot of people thought we were going to come out here and just lay an egg, but we didn't. We came out and fought to the end. That's what I love about this team. So what I didn't win?"
The running back matchup played out in a similar fashion.
UNC sophomore Elijah Hood rushed for 65 yards on 14 carries, while Clemson's Wayne Gallman–also a sophomore–picked up 187 on 28 touches, with all but 17 of his yards coming in the second half.
However, UNC was able to put together a late rally after falling behind by three scores midway through the third quarter.
With just over a minute left in the game and trailing by eight points–following a 17-yard touchdown pass from Williams to Ryan Switzer–UNC recovered an onside kick attempt near midfield.
For a moment, it appeared as if there might have been a chance.
The only problem was that the referees determined that one of the Tar Heels was offside–much to Fedora's dismay.
"I had a chance to look at it," the coach said after the game. "And they missed it. They were wrong. That's all I'm going to say about it. They were wrong."
For a good portion of the first two quarters UNC held the lead, but it simply could not hang on as the game progressed.
The Tigers showed why they have been the class of college football all year long by using their extreme talent and athleticism to take control. From a pure statistical standpoint, the Tar Heels were dominated the entire game, as head coach Dabo Swinney's team finished with 608 yards of offense, compared with UNC's 382.
Clemson went into halftime leading just 21-16, needing a 68-yard drive in the final two minutes of the second quarter–capped with a 1-yard touchdown toss from Watson to tight end Jordan Leggett–to pull in front.
Then the sophomore led his team to touchdowns on each of its first two possessions of the second half–one after Williams' interception and another after UNC failed on its own fake punt attempt.
Up by three scores at that point, the Tigers went into cruise control the rest of the way–much like the Tar Heels have done all year long.
However, that led to three late UNC touchdowns, which put the team in a position–with just over a minute remaining–for the critical onside kick that was wiped away by the late flag.
On the next try, Clemson picked up the ball, and with it the conference championship.
"The fun thing about this group is what they've got inside of them," Fedora said of his Tar Heels. "And they never stopped fighting, and they never stopped believing. The way they were scrambling around on those last two onside kicks, you could tell they believed if we got that ball we were going to win, and they knew that was all we needed to do.
"So their effort was tremendous all night," he added. "They've got a tremendous amount of grit and I'm really proud of the way these seniors led this team this year."
Up Next:
The regular season is now over for UNC, as the team will now have to wait to find out which bowl game awaits.
Game Notes:
It all comes down to this. Back in Charlotte at Bank of America Stadium, the same place where it picked up its first—and only—loss of the season, the No. 10 UNC football team now finds itself playing for the ACC Championship and a chance at the College Football Playoff.
The only obstacle?
The undefeated Clemson Tigers—America's top ranked team.
This season has already been one of the most successful in UNC's school history, with an 11-game win streak following the opening loss to South Carolina propelling the team to an 11-1 record.
Under head coach Larry Fedora, the Tar Heels now have a chance to bring home an ACC Championship for the first time since 1980—when Fedora was a senior in high school and a man named Lawrence Taylor was roaming around UNC's defensive backfield.
With all that on the line, the coach is nowhere near satisfied just yet.
"When it's all over with, maybe I can sit back, smoke a cigar, and think back on it," Fedora said during his weekly press conference. "But for right now, we're fixing to play the number one team in the country. We don't have time to kick our shoes off and throw our feet up. We've got a lot of work to do."
Clemson comes into Saturday at 12-0 behind its charismatic head coach, Dabo Swinney, and its Heisman candidate at quarterback, sophomore Deshaun Watson—the only player in the ACC to throw for more than 3,000 yards and rush for more than 700.
But the Tigers aren't just an offensive powerhouse.
Their defense ranks seventh in the nation in yards allowed, and is one of eight schools to surrender less than 300 per game.
"This is the best offense we have faced this year, no doubt about it," Fedora said. "And this is the best defense we've faced this year. I mean, this is the best football team we have faced.
"They're the number one team in the country, and they've been that way for how many weeks? Ten weeks. Long time right?"
The Tar Heels will need to find a way to slow Watson down when they are on defense, which is much easier said than done. In Watson's first career start last year as a true freshman, he torched UNC for 435 yards and six touchdowns.
Senior linebacker Jeff Schoettmer remembers that game vividly, but says he believes his group will be up to the challenge on Saturday.
"They're definitely an explosive offense, but we're a new defense as well," he said. "[Watson] was a freshman [in last year's game], but he was poised beyond his years. He's very mature for his age, and he is a great player. That's why he's up for the Heisman.
"So we're gonna have to play a great game on defense to shut him down."
If that does indeed happen, then the Tar Heels will still need to continue to get the explosive production from their offense that they've gotten all season.
Every long touchdown and highlight reel play is another point in the College Football Playoff Committee's notebook. It may seem silly, but the week one loss in Charlotte to South Carolina—a team that finished 3-8—could potentially leave the Tar Heels on the outside looking in, even with a victory.
That talk has gone on long enough where UNC's senior quarterback, Marquise Williams, has gotten tired of hearing about it.
"They had us ranked like fifth going into this year in the Coastal [Division] anyway," he said. "That's fine. We like this. We love when people don't want to talk about us.
"Only thing I can say is just keep winning and eventually they'll have to write something good about [us]."
In a game expected by many to be a bloodbath of sorts, Williams again sees an opportunity to etch his name even deeper into Tar Heel lore. Playoffs or not, the chance exists to do something that hasn't been seen in Chapel Hill for nearly four decades.
It's moments like that which last forever.
"We want to be a team remembered for something," Williams said. "We want to leave our legacy. We want to make history.
"That was our thing as seniors. Before the season, we sat down with each other and we wrote down our own goals as seniors—what we wanted to do this year to make it special for us.
"This is what [we're] gonna remember when [we're] older," he continued. "I'll remember playing in the ACC Championship when I'm 50. Maybe 70.
"[Either way], I'll remember that."

WCHL will carry the ACC Championship game live on 97.9 FM and 1360 AM. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. It will also be televised on ABC.
Game Notes:
The UNC defense improved against the run Saturday night at Clemson, but the big plays down the field engineered by freshman Tiger quarterback Deshaun Watson doomed the Tar Heels.
***Listen to the story***
"We didn't make enough plays on offense, and we gave up too many big plays on defense. That's all there was to it," UNC head coach Larry Fedora says.
For Carolina's much-maligned defense, Saturday was a bit of a mixed bag. The Tar Heels managed to stop the Clemson rushing attack, giving up a stingy 71 yards on the ground.
But through the air, it was another story altogether.
Watson torched the UNC secondary to the tune of 435 yards and six touchdowns. Watson's six touchdowns tied an ACC record.
All in all, following Saturday, UNC's pass defense ranks second to last nationally, ahead of only Bowling Green. Shockingly, the Tar Heels average giving up 6.62 yards per play. No power five conference team is allowing more yardage per snap of the football.
Coach Fedora says the only thing that kept UNC hanging around in the contest was their success against the run.
"There were too many major mistakes on the back end. We turned them loose. We'll have to figure out what went wrong in those situations. We did do a much better job against the run, which gave us a chance," Coach Fedora says.
On the other side of the ball, Coach Fedora says he was pleased with the play of junior signal caller Marquise Williams, especially given the duress he was under most of the night.
"I thought he stood tough the entire game. He had a lot of pressure. They have a very good defensive line. We knew that was going to happen against our offensive line. Marquise got the ball out. There were just a couple times that he held onto it. Other than that, I think he did a nice job," Coach Fedora says.
Williams' four touchdown passes at Clemson moved his career scoring throws up to 25, he is now just one shy of the top 10 in school history.
Looking across the field at Clemson's quarterback, Coach Fedora says he was thoroughly impressed with the maturity of Watson in leading the Tiger attack.
"He did a really nice job. The kid can throw the ball and run it. He's a very good player and going to be really good in the future," Coach Fedora says.
Despite recording their second loss of the year, Coach Fedora says he was happy with the competitiveness and fight displayed by his players.
"Our guys fought. I don't think there's any doubt about that. There was no lack of confidence that people were worried about. Our guys got after it. We just didn't make enough plays," Coach Fedora says.
But in order for Carolina to be successful moving forward, it's not so much the plays they need to make; it's the big plays they'll need to prevent opponents from making that will likely decide UNC football's 2014 fate.http://chapelboro.com/sports/unc-sports/unc-defense-still-struggling-find-form
The North Carolina football team fell behind 17-0 early and couldn't recover in a 50-35 loss at Clemson Saturday night, dropping to 2-2 on the season.
With the win, the Tigers evened their record up at 2-2 on the year. For the third straight season, the Tar Heels have now dropped their conference opener
Clemson freshman signal caller Deshaun Watson threw for 435 yards and set a school record with six touchdown passes in his first ever start to lead the Tigers to the victory.
The 19-year-old didn't shrink in the spotlight. Watson completed 27 of his 36 passes.
Watson's six TDs tied the ACC record and only Tajh Boyd has thrown for more yards in a game for Clemson.
The Tar Heel defense continued to struggle, giving up 528 yards, and has now allowed its opponent to gain more than 500 yards in the past three games.
Mike Williams had six catches for 122 yards and two touchdowns for Clemson, which has scored 49 or more points in five of its last 10 ACC games.
UNC was clamping down on the run game, but Watson excelled.
Watson had a 50-yard TD pass to Hopper in the second quarter, waiting in the pocket until the last moment to drop the pass right into the receiver's hands. Clemson gained 218 yards in the first half, with Watson's two long passes accounting for more than half that total.
In the second half, Watson had two 33-yard touchdown passes and a 24-yard scoring throw before tight end Jordan Leggett jumped high in the end zone to pull in the freshman's record-breaking TD pass.
Clemson needed Watson's passing as the Tigers gained only 71 yards on the ground.
Artavis Scott had eight catches for 66 yards and a touchdown, while Hopper caught three passes for 139 yards and 2 TDs.
Ammon Lakip hit a 27-yard and a 45-yard field goal. Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney stuck with the junior kicker after he missed two field goals in last week's overtime loss to No. 1 Florida State.
The Tar Heels are still struggling, a week after allowing the most yards, points and first downs in school history. On Saturday night, the Tar Heels had 15 penalties, one off the school record, for 130 yards, which was 20 yards away from their worst game.
Marquise Williams was 24-of-38 for 345 yards for North Carolina and threw to 13 different receivers. Elijah Hood ran 13 times for 71 yards to lead the team in rushing.
Next up for the Tar Heels is a home contest in Chapel Hill against ACC Coastal foe Virginia Tech on Saturday, Oct. 4.
The 2-1 North Carolina football team will open its ACC schedule with a trip down to Death Valley to face the 1-2 Clemson Tigers Saturday night for a nationally-televised 7 p.m. kickoff.
***Listen to the story***
"They're really good. They're really good on defense. They've settled on their quarterback for the offense with freshman Deshaun Watson, who's a very talented young man. He can run or throw. It will definitely be a task," UNC head coach Larry Fedora says.
UNC will need to reverse its recent trend in head-to-head battles with Clemson as the Tar Heels have dropped four of their last five meetings against the Tigers, including the most recent encounter, a 59-38 loss in 2011.
But Coach Fedora has never taken on Clemson. In his maiden campaign against the Tigers, he'll be saddled with more inexperience than he'd like.
Coach Fedora says he's had to work on his patience with the extreme youth on UNC's roster.
"When you're playing with young guys, you know there will be mistakes made. I don't have a whole lot of patience. I have more patience than I used to have, because I have three daughters now. It's still tough for me. Every day is tough. You want to be as good as you can possibly be every single day," Coach Fedora says.
For junior wide receiver T.J. Thorpe, an athlete who has persevered through numerous ankle injuries, the key for the Tar Heels is to just keep it simple and compete hard 100 percent of the time.
"We just need to play hard. Above all, that's the thing that I feel like we lack. We need to play hard and sustain playing hard – just compete. We have good players the same way they do. We have talented guys who can make plays. That's it – focus, attention to detail and play as hard as we can," Thorpe says.
With an experienced defensive unit at Clemson that includes National Player of the Week Stephone Anthony, the young UNC offensive line figures to have its hands full.
Sophomore offensive tackle John Ferranto says he's prepared for a rugged battle Saturday night.
"They're an experienced group. The interior linemen are big, strong and quick. Their defensive ends are quick and really good pass rushers. They have a really good group on defense," Ferranto says.
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney recognizes the challenge of facing a UNC offense that he says is the most up-tempo unit the Tigers have faced.
Coach Swinney says the best defense against the Tar Heels will be a good offense.
"We are a tempo team ourselves, but they're a little faster than us. We're trying to do some things 'good on good' to try to prepare our guys, use our scouts and get them ready for the tempo that they'll see. But the biggest thing that we have to do is take care of the football on our side. We've got to do a good job offensively and keep them off the field," Coach Swinney says.
The Tigers have returned 8 starters on their defense. To put that in perspective, the Tar Heels returned a total of 10 starters on their entire team.
Coach Fedora is concerned from the havoc the Tiger defense can create, especially from veteran defensive end Vic Beasley.
"The Vic Beasley kid that everybody talks about is as good as everybody says. He's relentless and has speed like a defensive back or receiver. He's quick as a cat. They've got guys that can run at every position. They have a lot of confidence right now," Coach Fedora says.
Coach Fedora identifies two keys to the game – big plays on special teams and stopping the run.
"Starting with special teams, we've got to have a game-changing play, we really do. We have to make some plays. It's going to be vital for our success this week. Jumping over to defense, we have to stop the run," Coach Fedora says.http://chapelboro.com/sports/unc-sports/tar-heels-hoping-tame-tigers-death-valley
WCHL's Matt Oakes caught up with Tiger head coach Dabo Swinney as his squad prepares to host the Tar Heels Saturday night. Among other things, the two discussed the legendary Death Valley atmosphere, the emergence of freshman quarterback Deshaun Watson and the best way to stop UNC's Ryan Switzer on special teams.
***Listen to the conversation***http://chapelboro.com/sports/unc-sports/scouting-report-chat-clemson-coach-dabo-swinney
COLUMBIA – Coach Dabo Swinney says Clemson's offense will continue to run smoothly with reserve receiver Adam Humphries in the starting lineup.
Humphries is replacing Charone Peake, who was the Tigers (2-0) second-leading receiver when he tore his ACL in a non-contact drill a week ago and now needs season-ending surgery.
That means Humphries, Peake's high-school teammate from Dorman, will be front-and-center when No. 3 Clemson faces North CarolinaState (2-0) in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both teams Thursday night.
Humphries has started five of 29 games in his career and has 63 catches and a touchdown. But Swinney says Humphries is usually in the middle of big moments, perhaps none bigger than his 9-yard catch that set up Clemson's game-winning field goal in last season's Chick-Fil-A Bowl.http://chapelboro.com/sports/acc/no-3-clemson-back-to-work-after-losing-wr-peake

Spotted Wing Drosophila (SWD), which originated in Asia, can now be found worldwide. It arrived in Southern Europe in 2008 before being recorded in small numbers in the UK in August 2012.
Managing SWD is an important issue for the UK industry. It is a challenging pest to control which is why it is vital that we work together and take the necessary action to combat it and minimise the potential impact on soft and stone fruit crops.
A cross industry group has been working together since 2012 and a great deal of knowledge has already been learned from other countries' experiences of managing SWD. In addition, an industry funded project was set up in 2013 to investigate the behaviour and control of SWD in the UK. This project (SF 145) is being led by East Malling Research in conjunction with The James Hutton Institute and is funded by Defra, AHDB Horticulture, The Worshipful Company of Fruiterers, British Summer Fruits and The East Malling Trust.
This dedicated SWD site has been set up to provide the latest results of the industry funded project (SF 145) along with other knowledge, best practice and understanding of SWD from around the world. The site reflects the most current information available on spotted wing drosophila.

BMI View: BMI believes that the Saudi Arabian shipping company Bahri, known as the National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (NSCSA) until a change of name in April 2012, has a strong growth outlook over the coming years. The recent launch of its dry bulk arm, Bahri Dry Bulk (BDB) and the upcoming absorption of fellow Saudi oil tanker operator Vela will help the firm maintain profit growth like that achieved in the most recent quarter, ended September 30.
Bahri and Vela have reached agreement with the Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) and Vela on the terms and conditions by which Bahri will take over the fleet and operations of Vela. Vela is the wholly owned subsidiary of Aramco, formed to cater solely to the oil giant's transportation needs. Through the agreement, Bahri will pay US$1.3bn to Vela in total, comprising US$832.75mn in cash and 78.75mn in new shares, priced at SAR22.25 (US$5.93). The statement said: 'Pursuant to the terms of a long-term shipping contract, which has an initial term of 10 years, Bahri will become the exclusive provider of VLCC crude oil shipping services to Saudi Aramco for crude oil sold by Saudi Aramco on a delivered basis.'
The agreement between the two companies means that all that is now required for the merger to go ahead is the necessary regulatory clearance. The deal follows a memorandum of understanding struck between the two tanker operators in June ( see our online service, 'Saudi Arabian Merger Bad News For Others', June 28). As we noted at the time, the merger will make Bahri one of the largest crude oil tanker operators in the world; the total fleet of the new entity would entail 77 vessels, including 32 VLCCs, 20 chemical tankers, five product tankers, four ro-ros. Further to these the newly enlarged company would have an orderbook of 16 newbuildings.
|Moving Up The Chart
|Top Ten VLCC Operators
The effect of the merger, as things currently stand, would be to make the newly enlarged company the fourth-largest operator of crude oil tankers in the world. Bahri is currently in sixth place, while Vela lags in tenth. Once the move is completed - the companies are aiming to have the deal sewn up in November - only the Fredriksen Group ( Frontline and Frontline 2012), Mitsui OSK Lines and Nippon Yusen Kaisha would have larger fleets.
BMI believes that the deal will see Bahri enjoy huge growth in business, potentially to the detriment of other tanker operators, as it will enjoy the exclusive deal to transport Aramco's oil products where the oil giant previously needed to charter in vessels from various operators. We note that it is not only in liquid bulk that Bahri is expanding rapidly but also in dry bulk shipping.
In August BDB began operations ( see our online service, 'Bahri Dry Bulk Begins Operations', August 7). We note that the dry bulk subsidiary has a similar deal with the Saudi Arabian grains company Arabian Agricultural Services Company (Arasco) to that which it will enjoy with Aramco once the merger with Vela is completed. As BDB is a joint venture (JV) with the grains company, the shipping firm will enjoy an exclusive deal on transporting Arasco's grain. The JV is 60% owned by Bahri, with the remaining 40% controlled by Arasco. Arasco sub-lets the vessels from BDB for its grain import business.
|Becoming Grain Import Reliant
|Saudi Arabian Wheat Imports, 2002/03 - 2012/13 ('000mt)
We believe that both of these deals will see Bahri's profits continue to climb in the coming years. Saudi Arabia has continued to increase oil production through 2012 in a bid to control rising prices and allay supply-side fears largely caused through the recalcitrant nature of Iran. Increased production needs more vessels in which to transport the oil and oil products, and Bahri is perfectly placed to cater for this. In terms of the dry bulk operations, increasing grain imports over the medium term as Saudi Arabia ceases to be a producer will keep BDB's dry bulk tankers in business; in 2010/11, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that Saudi Arabia's production of wheat had fallen by 30% year-on-year (y-o-y); in the same period the country's wheat imports increased by 11%.
Bahri posted a sharp 157.3% y-o-y jump in net profit to SAR60.2mn (US$16.05mn) in Q312, compared with SAR23.4mn (US$6.23mn) in the same period a year before. Over the three-quarter period from January to September net profit rose by 145% to SAR427.4mn (US$113.95mn). CEO of Bahri, Saleh Nasser al-Jasser, attributed the rise in profit to a number of factors including the lower fuel consumption due to the slowing of ships and the income from BDB.

Asha for Education
Asha Stanford is a non-profit organization and also an active Student Group at Stanford University. It is a completely volunteer driven organization, comprising of dedicated individuals from Stanford University and the Bay Area, striving to make a difference to the society. We believe that education is one of the primary factors in shaping a child's future and by extension, future of the entire country.
Asha Stanford works towards promoting the education of underprivileged children in India by providing financial assistance and support to the NGOs focused on education projects. Volunteers of Asha work closely with the project partners in India, while locally organizing fundraisers and community awareness events. Asha Holi, a popular event in the Bay Area, is Asha Stanford's primary fundraiser, which directly helps support several education projects in India. Holi started in 1999, as a small 300 people event on Stanford Campus, which has grown to a 10,000+ people event today with continual efforts of its volunteers and the support of Stanford University.

Their uniqueness the Flora vases obtain by the ability of connecting, contrasting and fixing symmetry and asymmetry – a phenomenon that often appears in nature.
The contrast is also found in the material. The polished surface pf the stainless steel has been chosen to emphasize and reflect the vivid textures and colours of the flowers.

Do hula hoops and convince with wittedness … have fun at work
Traditionalists will say that work is serious business. One of the most creative minds of the Industrial Age had a different point of view:
I never did a day's work in my life — it was all fun. — Thomas Edison
Meghan M. Biro, CEO + Founder TalentCulture Consulting Group + TalentCulture World of Work, says:
"Edison's point is well taken, but I doubt he ever worked in any of the deadening cultures most of us have had to suffer in at some time during our careers. I'm not asking for rainbows and unicorns, they call it work for a reason. But the fact is that leaders can add some zing, zest and just plain fun to being at work. And numerous studies have shown a lively, personalized workplace culture improves business performance (and profits).
I'm talking about fun, but this is serious business. It's our job to help create happy employees."
Life is serious enough.
It is indispensable to enrich our private, and also our business life through fun and joy.
Spontaneous moments of fun and humor are able to transform a boring office life into an exciting workplace.
Now you will ask …
But we are in the office – how does that work?
Indeed we do not need a whole portable suitcase for entertainment to have fun at work.
There are easy ways to cheer ourselves and others up:
1.) Begin with small hula hoop exercises throughout the day. You will hit two birds with one stone. You will have fun and your body gets a good shape.
2.) Switch on the radio and listen to some good music. Move your body to the rhythm. And soon you will begin to smile.
3.) Be quick-witted in your communication and find some humor in debates.
Wittedness amuses people and enlivens conversations.
Being witty is a good way to use your intelligence and knowledge.
Be sarcastic and ironic. Be bold and be short. Brevity is the soul of wit.
Use puns in dialogues ( Read Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde and study satirical characters on TV ).
Respond with a meaningful quotation from a movie, book, or significant figure.
When we look at history's most successful entrepreneurs, leaders and employees, we will see a common thread: They all love what they do.
Learn to have fun at work and show that!
Fun makes you happy and makes others happy!
It creates a bond with you and your surrounding.

Primary Central Nervous System Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) represent a spectrum ranging from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-driven polyclonal lymphoid proliferations to EBV+ or EBV– malignant lymphomas. Central nervous system (CNS) PTLDs have not been characterized fully. We reviewed the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features of 12 primary CNS PTLDs to define them more precisely. Patients included 10 males and 2 females (median age, 43.4 years) who were recipients of kidney (n = 5), liver (n = 2), heart (n = 2), peripheral blood stem cells (n = 2), or bone marrow (n = 1). All received immunosuppressive therapy. CNS symptoms developed 3 to 131 months (mean, 31 months) after transplantation. By neuroimaging, most showed multiple (3 to 9) intra-axial, contrast-enhancing lesions. Histologic sections showed marked expansion of perivascular spaces by large, cytologically malignant lymphoid cells that were CD45+, CD20+, EBV+ and showed light chain restriction or immunoglobulin gene rearrangement. In distinction to PTLDs in other organ systems, CNS PTLDs were uniformly high-grade lymphomas that fulfilled the World Health Organization criteria for monomorphic PTLDs. Extremely short survival periods were noted for each CNS PTLD that followed peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Survival of others with CNS PTLD varied; some lived more than 2 years.

Generic Name: clonidine (oral) (KLOE ni deen)
Brand Name: Catapres, Kapvay
What is clonidine?
Clonidine lowers blood pressure by decreasing the levels of certain chemicals in your blood. This allows your blood vessels to relax and your heart to beat more slowly and easily.
Clonidine is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). The Kapvay brand of clonidine is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Clonidine is sometimes given with other medications.
Clonidine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What is the most important information I should know about clonidine?
Follow all directions on your medicine label and package. Tell each of your healthcare providers about all your medical conditions, allergies, and all medicines you use.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking clonidine?
You should not take this medicine if you are allergic to clonidine.
To make sure clonidine is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:
heart disease or severe coronary artery disease;
heart rhythm disorder, slow heartbeats;
low blood pressure, or a history of fainting spells;
a history of heart attack or stroke;
pheochromocytoma (tumor of the adrenal gland);
kidney disease; or
if you have ever had an allergic reaction to a clonidine transdermal skin patch (Catapres TTS).
Older adults may be more sensitive to the effects of this medicine.
It is not known whether this medicine will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while taking clonidine.
Clonidine can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Catapres is not approved for use by anyone younger than 18 years old. Do not give Kapvay to a child younger than 6 years old.
How should I take clonidine?
Follow all directions on your prescription label. Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results. Do not take this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
Clonidine is usually taken in the morning and at bedtime. If you take different doses of this medicine at each dosing time, it may be best to take the larger dose at bedtime.
Clonidine may be taken with or without food.
Do not use two forms of clonidine at the same time. This medicine is also available as a transdermal patch worn on the skin.
Do not crush, chew, or break an extended-release tablet. Swallow it whole. Tell your doctor if you have trouble swallowing the tablet.
If you need surgery, tell the surgeon ahead of time that you are using clonidine. You may need to stop using the medicine for a short time.
Do not stop using clonidine suddenly, or you could have unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Ask your doctor how to safely stop using clonidine.
Call your doctor if you are sick with vomiting. Prolonged illness can make it harder for your body to absorb clonidine, which may lead to withdrawal symptoms. This is especially important for a child taking clonidine.
If you are being treated for high blood pressure, keep using this medication even if you feel well. High blood pressure often has no symptoms. You may need to use blood pressure medication for the rest of your life.
Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.
Overdose symptoms may include dangerously high blood pressure (severe headache, pounding in your neck or ears, nosebleed, anxiety, chest pain, shortness of breath) followed by low blood pressure (feeling like you might pass out). Other overdose symptoms may include feeling cold, extreme weakness or drowsiness, weak or shallow breathing, pinpoint pupils, fainting, or seizure (convulsions).
What should I avoid while taking clonidine?
Avoid drinking alcohol. It may increase certain side effects of clonidine.
Clonidine may impair your thinking or reactions. Avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how this medicine will affect you. Dizziness or severe drowsiness can cause falls or other accidents.
Clonidine side effects
Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have:
severe chest pain, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeats;
a very slow heart rate;
severe headache, pounding in your neck or ears, blurred vision;
anxiety, confusion; or
a light-headed feeling, like you might pass out.
Serious side effects may be more likely in older adults.
Common side effects may include:
drowsiness, dizziness;
feeling tired or irritable;
dry mouth, loss of appetite;

Clonidine dosing information
Usual Adult Dose for Hypertension:
Initial dose (PO): 0.1 mg orally twice a day (morning and bedtime).
Maintenance dose: 0.2 to 0.6 mg/day given in divided doses.
Initial dose (patches):Clonidine TTS-1 (0.1 mg/24 hr) applied once a week.
Maintenance dose: If after 1 to 2 weeks the desired reduction in blood pressure is not achieved, increase the dosage by adding another TTS-1 film or changing to a larger system.
An increase in dosage above 2 clonidine TTS-3 films is usually not associated with additional efficacy.
Extended-release tablets:
Initial dose: 0.17 mg orally once daily at bedtime. Further increments of 0.09 mg orally once daily may be made at weekly intervals if necessary until the desired response is achieved.
Maintenance dose: 0.17 mg to 0.52 mg orally once daily at bedtime
Extended-release oral suspension:
Initial dose: 0.17 mg (2 mL) orally once daily at bedtime. Further increments of 0.09 mg (1 mL) orally once daily may be made at weekly intervals if necessary until the desired response is achieved.
Maintenance dose: 0.17 mg to 0.52 mg orally once daily at bedtime
Usual Adult Dose for Pain:
Continuous Epidural Infusion:
Initial dose: 30 mcg/hr.
May be titrated up or down depending on pain relief and occurrence of adverse events.
Maximum dose 40 mcg/hr.
Usual Adult Dose for Pheochromocytoma Diagnosis:
0.3 mg orally once. Clonidine is only recommended after baseline determination of plasma catecholamines. Two baseline samples can be obtained five minutes apart from an existing IV line after the patient has remained supine for 90 minutes (a new needle stick could increase catecholamine concentrations and foul the test).
After the initial dose of clonidine, three additional hourly blood samples may be obtained for plasma catecholamine concentration measurements.
Generally, patients with hypertension and pheochromocytoma do NOT show a decrease in plasma catecholamine levels after this "suppression test", whereas hypertensive patients without pheochromocytoma do. False negative tests have been reported.
Usual Adult Dose for Hypertensive Emergency:
0.2 mg orally once. Additional doses of 0.1 mg may be given as needed and tolerated every hour to control this patient's blood pressure. Be cognizant of the risk of stroke or heart attack or other problem associated with aggressive blood pressure reduction, especially in older persons. The maximum recommended total daily dose in any case of emergent hypertension is 0.8 mg.
Some clinicians report a poor antihypertensive effect of clonidine in patients with spinal injuries since this drug acts on the central nervous system to inhibit peripheral sympathetic tone, and the central and peripheral nervous systems are disrupted in these patients.
Usual Adult Dose for Alcohol Withdrawal:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Anxiety:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Benzodiazepine Withdrawal:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Migraine Prophylaxis:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Perimenopausal Symptoms:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Smoking Cessation:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Bipolar Disorder:
0.1 mg orally twice a day or TTS-1 (0.1 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Adult Dose for Opiate Withdrawal:
0.2 mg orally twice a day or TTS-2 (0.2 mg) transdermal patch once a week.
Usual Pediatric Dose for Attention Deficit Disorder:
May be used alone or as an adjunct to stimulants.
Immediate release (unlabeled indication):
Children less than or equal to 45 kg:
Initial dose: 0.05 mg orally at bedtime. Increase sequentially every 3 to 7 days by 0.05 mg increments as 2 times daily, then 3 times daily, then 4 times daily.
Maximum dose: 0.2 mg/day orally for patients weighing 27 to 40.5 kg; 0.3 mg/day for patients weighing 40.5 to 45 kg.
When discontinuing therapy, taper gradually over 1 to 2 weeks.
Children greater than 45 kg:
Initial dose: 0.1 mg orally at bedtime. Increase sequentially every 3 to 7 days by 0.1 mg increments as 2 times daily, then 3 times daily, then 4 times daily
Maximum dose: 0.4 mg/day
When discontinuing therapy, taper gradually over 1 to 2 weeks.
Extended release (Kapva {R}):
Children greater than or equal to 6 years:
Initial dose: 0.1 mg orally at bedtime. Increase in 0.1 mg/day increments every 7 days until desired response. Doses should be administered twice daily (either split equally or with the higher split dosage given at bedtime).
Maximum dose: 0.4 mg/day orally
Note: Maintenance treatment for greater than 5 weeks has not been evaluated.
When discontinuing therapy, taper daily dose by less than or equal to 0.1 mg every 3 to 7 days.
Transdermal: Children may be switched to the transdermal delivery system after oral therapy is titrated to an optimal and stable dose; a transdermal dose approximately equivalent to the total oral daily dose may be used.
The dose of clonidine extended-release tablets, administered either as monotherapy or as adjunctive therapy to a psychostimulant, should be individualized according to the therapeutic needs and response of the patient. Dosing should be initiated with one 0.1 mg tablet at bedtime, and the daily dosage should be adjusted in increments of 0.1 mg/day at weekly intervals until the desired response is achieved. Doses should be taken twice a day, with either an equal or higher split dosage being given at bedtime.
What other drugs will affect clonidine?
Taking this medicine with other drugs that make you sleepy can worsen this effect. Ask your doctor before taking clonidine with a sleeping pill, narcotic pain medicine, muscle relaxer, or medicine for anxiety, depression, or seizures.
Tell your doctor about all your current medicines and any you start or stop using, especially:
other heart or blood pressure medications;
an antidepressant; or
any other medicine that contains clonidine.
This list is not complete. Other drugs may interact with clonidine, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. Not all possible interactions are listed in this medication guide.

This article first appeared on NBA Gauntlet on 8/18/08. Kobe is leading the poll 145-142.
Doberman vs. King James
Kobe Bryant and LeBron James routinely factor into the discussion every season as MVP candidates. Each year, they have among the highest scoring averages, PERs, Win Shares, and any other metric commonly used to determine the best basketball player.
Last year, LeBron flirted with a triple-double for the season, but slowed down a bit as the season progressed. Even so, he still ended up with numbers that would often win the MVP. Unfortunately for him, many players had compelling arguments for the MVP award. The highest rated by many metrics were Kobe and LeBron.
Kobe: 28.3 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 5.4 APG
LeBron: 30 PPG, 7.9 RPG, 7.2 APG
ESPN conducted a poll and determined LeBron should win, but in actual results, he came in fourth. Kobe won, followed by Chris Paul, Kevin Garnett, James, and Dwight Howard.
How can this be justified?
- Kobe was the best player on the second best team in the NBA. LeBron's team was just average.
- Kobe prides himself on defense and frequently asks to guard the opposing team's top scorer.
- Kobe shoots better from three-point range.
- Some voters thought Kobe was "due" for the award after many fantastic seasons.
Of course, LeBron had a much weaker supporting cast, so you can't blame him for winning fewer games.
LeBron also has none of Kobe's character issues. He has never asked to be traded, was never indicted for a major crime, never changed his uniform number, and doesn't complain about bad teammates.
LeBron also has posted many great seasons back-to-back, yet still hasn't gotten recognition. Also, if they're including a whole career in MVP discussion, why did Chris Paul end up second?
Maybe the MVP voters made a mistake.
The MVP just counts the regular season, so how do they compare in the postseason?
They have each carried their teams through the playoffs, but could not win a championship without an all-star sidekick.
In NBA Finals, each man faltered when confronted with stifling defense. LeBron and his Cavs were swept in the 2007 NBA Finals by the Spurs, who had won four championships in nine years. Kobe and the Lakers could not handle the intense pressure applied by the Celtics in the 2008 NBA Finals.
