Rowing Against the Current by Barry Strauss
Book DescriptionIn the midst of the standard, dreary midlife crisis -- complete with wine-tasting courses, yoga classes, and a failed attempt at a first novel -- forty-year-old Barry Strauss falls unexpectedly and passionately in love with rowing, a sport in which a twenty-seven-year-old is a has-been. Strauss, a professor of classics and history, writes about the unanticipated delights of an affair that, like so many others, begins as a casual dalliance and develops into a full-blown obsession. Drawn to the sport in part because of his affinity for Greek antiquity, he develops a love for old boathouses, a longing for rivers at dawn, a thirst to test himself, and, ultimately, a renewed sense of self-reliance -- as someone who had experienced sports humiliation as far back as Little League suddenly finds himself bursting into athleticism at an unlikely age. From the awe-inspiring feats of the war-bound Greek triremes with their crews of 172 men rowing on three levels to the solitary pride of finishing a first race in which he gets stuck in the weeds and has to be fished out, Barry Strauss shows us why "there is nothing -- absolutely nothing -- half as much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."

Next night he appeared once more demanding to see Natalie.
Natalie clarified that noone had ever come back 3 nights in a row and that there were no discounts. She was annoyed by his behavior. Essentially, once more quite old man took out the money, the 1 went up to room and half an hour later, he left. A well-famous fact that is. Shortly prior to landing in NY, she used intercom to announce to all the cabin, Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in newest Orleans, please raise the hand.
LA to NY.
Lawyer leans over to her and makes sure if she should like to play a fun game. She politely declines and tries to get some sleep.
Definitely, he enlightens how game works. However, whenever saying that game has been actually plain easy and lots of fun, the lawyer persists. She politely declines and rolls over to window to catch a few winks, the blonde has been tired and simply wants to make a nap. He makes another offer, the chauvinistic lawyer figures that since his opponent is usually a blonde he will readily win the match.
By the way, the lawyer looks at her with a puzzled look. He wakes the blonde and hands her and turns away to get back to sleep. All to no avail. You should make this seriously. What IS choice, the lawyer. Wakes blonde and asks, Well, right? He requires out his laptop computer and searches all his references. Besides without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer

Thanks to a winter frost heave and a tiny canvas carport I had the misfortune of accidentally breaking my side mirror when the car rolled over a bump in the driveway due to the tire positioning and the closer than close proximity of the poles holding up the carport wall. My neighbor who owns a garage tried to help me find a new mirror "preloved" so that I could save a few bucks. Even if he went to the junk yard himself and pulled it I was going to be paying at least $80. This was money that I didn't have for a side mirror I needed to have. He gave me his contact list & the website he uses to try and find the part on my own because I was getting ready for a road trip through a few states and we thought I would have better luck elsewhere. So online I went. Lots of phone calls made & websites searched but it wasn't until I came upon your website that I found what I was looking for at a price I could afford. I couldn't believe it. With shipping I was saving over $40 and the part which arrived 2 days after I got home from my trip looked perfect and still works great! I shared your website with my neighbor and he too was shocked by the price. We both love your website and while I haven't damaged anything since or needed any additional parts I will always visit your site 1st because I am confident that based on my experience with your customer service team and the pricing as well as shipping time and fantastic communication that I will always find the best deal when ordering from you.

Price Quality Average: 5 / 5 stars***EDIT***. Recieved a call from Mr. Smith and he explained to me that they were having problems with their phone system. Stated that he was concerned about my experience and was sending me a new radiator as we spoke. Got the new radiator in a week (that was great) and send back my old one. Considering I have no reason to not believe the company i am revising my review and rating to good as of 4/08/2009. I ordered a A2207 Koyo Radiator from this company on Monday, March 23, 2009 and recieved on the 28th. That was great until i opened the box and saw that the overflow nipple was busted of and the radiator was twisted. To be fair i tried to contact them on Saturday (28th) and now again on Monday (30th). What worries me is i cant leave a message and nobody answers the phone. As an auditor that raises a red flag instantly. Also, statistically speaking, thier bias towards all great reviews and then some bad reviews is an oddity. Statiscally speaking, most reviews should fall in theby hross14

A short 'scientific' description of a typical chef has been made using actual features of those elements used in the word above. This works really well for cooking... The chef is a bit of a crazy perfectionist as he/she is described as being: strong and stable even under high pressure (property of Carbon, [C]), with optimal boiling and melting points [He] and reactions that are often sudden and explosive [F].

Bill Hawkins: Continuing Education is Essential for Business Success!
For Executive Diamond and Former IBOAI Chairman Bill Hawkins, presenting Why Amway? and Product to Plan at past Achievers events was enjoyable and gratifying for several reasons — the feedback was positive from the IBOs who attended the sessions, having the company involve IBOs in the development and delivery of training demonstrates the company's partnership with the field, and last but not least, it was a fun experience for someone with a "teacher's mentality who will always love a classroom."
When asked what was most rewarding about partnering with Amway, Bill was quick to respond, "the cooperative spirit between the company and the field! Its better than it has ever been." If you've been fortunate enough to witness Bill in action at Achievers, you understand just how contagious his enthusiasm and love for the business is. And, you're also aware of how committed he is to keeping the partnership strong between the company, the field, and the family. For Bill, it's what makes the AMWAY™ business model unique.
"Continuing education is essential for anyone who is serious about their trade and being successful", according to Bill. He's a big believer in training at any level because you're never too old to learn something new and "if someone picks up even one new point from a presentation, then the time spent was worth it."
Right now, as Bill sees it, training and education for our IBOs is a coordinated effort. "By using real IBO experience and leveraging the company's resources, you've got a winning combination. We're giving IBOs the best information and help we've ever given them — it's why we're growing. And I think it will continue. The future looks better than ever."

Must Escape The Farm Walkthrough
Nice game, Thanks !
found a fish for the farmer but he won't take it?
had to back out of the scene and then go back in to give him the fish
starting again, my flash crashed
fishing pole on deck of house, worm in garden, combine for fish
fish to farmer for key to barn
color code for box in chicken house, clue on deck of house
Hey there! Happy Queensday! (Netherlands)
4 digit code box on tractor, number in barn under dried mud
5 golden eggs go in barn, door opens for place to use the wrench. gives ladder
Thanks Japieo ;-)
key for truck under hay in upstairs of barn
and out
nice and easy
Thanks self-defiant!
How do you get the worm?
I have a wrench, but I'm missing one golden egg.
There was one in the mailbox, one under a hen, one in the colour codebox, one in the numbers codebox.
use the shovel from the chicken house to dig in the garden for the worm
Fun and out on my own! Yay!!
No help for the 5th egg ?
for the last egg, feed the horse some carrots from the garden
sorry, firefox crashed on me! had to reload!
I can move some hay up in the barn, but don't see a key for the truck...??
there are three spots that can be moved
Zoe... move all the hay and you will find the key
I can move three darker yellow piles of hay, and then nothing else. I clicked 1,000 times over the remaining hay, but nothing happens. Nothing is in inventory. Am I supposed to have a pitchfork or something?
Nevermind...I have the key - I just couldn't see it very well (my monitor here at work is an old one)....I'm out.
thanks for your help!!!
@Zoe, no, for me I just clicked the spots
the key was on the right side of the ladder (you are upstairs in hte barn right?)
glad you're out!
Thank you very much, Jo-Ann !
Have not found any shovel in the chicken house?
Umm....never mind, I completely overlooked the very obvious arrows that I could click on to alter my view.
@Proud... There are 3 views in chicken house (look left and right)
Just going in late! Thanks you AGAIN Selfdefaint :)
Might sound like a baby, but i always feel bad putting a worm on a fishing hook lol

Those packages of pink meat might not be as healthy as you think.
Separate cooking techniques for breast and legs in this recipe ensure that the different cuts reach their most delicious potential. Cutting the raw turkey into parts is the only challenge here; if possible, ask your butcher to do it for you.
We borrowed a trick from grilled cheese sandwiches and applied it to roast chicken. The results were superlative.
One simple tip that'll allow you to really stretch your wings.
Chicken thighs may be more popular these days, but chicken breasts still deserve a place on your table.
So you've got an [instant-read digital thermometer](http://www.epicurious.com/expert-advice/what-kind-of-thermometer-should-i-buy-article) and a passion to make sure your turkey doesn't overcook? Cool. Now you just need to figure out where to stick that thing.
You've gathered the guests, conquered the cocktails, wrangled the side dishes, and roasted one heck of a turkey. Now it's game time. Here's how to carve your bird. With ease.
From meatballs to chili and everything in between, they're kitchen workhorses.
_(Djej Emshmel)_ **Editor's note:** The recipe and introductory text below are excerpted from Paula Wolfert's book [_Couscous and Other Good Food From Morocco_](http://astore.amazon.com/epistore-20/detail/0060913967)_._ Wolfert also shared some helpful cooking tips exclusively with Epicurious, which we've added at the bottom of the page. I first ate this dish in a home in the city of Meknes, sometimes called the City of Olives. _Djej Emshmel_ (pronounced _meshmel_ or _emsharmel_) is a classic Moroccan dish—chicken served in an intricately spiced, creamy, lemony, and sublime sauce with a scattering of pale-hued olives.
Chicken legs, potatoes, and briny Kalamata olives star in this easy one-pan dish. "This entire meal comes together on a single rimmed baking sheet. It's comforting and ridiculously simple." —Claire Saffitz, assistant food editor

text: From the sermon by our pastor yesterday. Jesus said count the cost. That is not the way to attract people to church. Too often the sell job is attracting people to church by making following Christ easy. We sell Christianity as low cost and low risk. By any other terms, cheap grace. No responsibilities, no duties, no risk. Just believe and have fun at the pot luck suppers.

Encounters between Asia and the Nordic countries/Europe, gender, non-governmental organizing, People's Republic of China
Emilija has recently defended her PhD dissertation entitled 'Living with Others: Subjectivity, Relatedness and Health among Urban Poor in Delhi" at the University of Copenhagen, Centre for Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies.
Based on a long-term fieldwork among urban poor, formal and informal medical practitioners and at a governmental health clinic dedicated for the poor, the study provides ethnography of everyday lives of the poor and their complex healthcare ecologies in an informal settlement. By taking everyday life as a vantage point to study illness and healthcare encounters, the study explores the effects of kin and neighbourly relatedness in women's health choices and illness experiences.

Chinese workers in the mainstream media
My thesis is about Chinese participation in UN peacekeeping missions with a focus on China's contribution to the mission in South Sudan.
Peacekeeping missions are one of the UN's core activities and the aim is to look deeper into China's engagement in the UN peacekeeping mission in South Sudan as a reflection of Chinas general engagement in and development within the UN throughout recent years and where it may head in the future.
I am an anthropology student at the University of Copenhagen. I am currently working on my master thesis entitled "(Yet another) Paradise Lost?", which investigates the changing livelihood strategies of local seaweed farmers in the small island of Nusa Lembongan, located in the Balinese Sea. Through a long-term ethnographic fieldwork, I have seen how the lives and economic strategies of three different families have changed drastically in order to follow the flows and consequences of the emerging tourist industry.
At the moment his main focus is collective action theories; questioning how and why people cooperate and govern the commons. Thus he takes great interest in Danish cooperatives as well.

Subterranean Water, Mysterious Sounds, Drone Sightings -- Coast To Coast AM - June 26, 2014
Date: 06-26-14
Host: George Noory
Guests: Linda Moulton Howe, David Paulides
Earthfiles investigative reporter Linda Moulton Howe discussed a huge volume of water that might explain this planet's oceans, new cases of the strange sound mystery, a 1981 eyewitness of a dragonfly drone, and a US Army cryptographer who was briefed about UFOs. Liquid water covers much of the Earth's surface, but now a Northwestern geophysicist, Steve Jacobson, has discovered that 400 miles down in the Earth's mantle locked up in hydrate minerals is enough water to possibly equal almost three times the amount of oceans and seas on the planet's surface. Jacobson told Linda that it's possible that the mantle of the Earth and its water cycle could actually be where the ocean water originally came from, in addition to or instead of comets. More here.
On June 18, 2014 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, two people upstairs and downstairs at the same time heard a loud screeching metallic sound "like the blade of a road grader scraping against asphalt." The sound was so loud for 15 to 20 seconds that it drowned out rain falling on the house roof, witness Pattie, a staff administrator at the University of Michigan, detailed. Their neighbor across the street also heard the loud, screeching metallic sound. In addition, Linda spoke to a witness named Gordon who shared his encounter with a loud metallic sound on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska in 2011. Further info.
In her third report, Linda interviewed "Mary" about her 1981 sighting of a dragonfly drone in Phoenix, Arizona that was so close to a 2nd story bedroom window that it cast a shadow over her bed. 'The object was round with like an arm on it and it had wires sticking up out of it. And I think I was so mesmerized by this thing" she said, adding that it had white symbols on it. After Mary mailed a copy of her photo of the drone to MUFON, she said she was contacted by an "Isaac" in 1992, who became known to Linda in 2007 for sharing his "CARET" documents on ET technology.

"Kewper Anonymous," the U. S. Army cryptographer who worked for the CIA in 1957-1960, described his work inside a CIA group based in a southeastern military base where they analyzed film, photographs and other physical evidence collected from eyewitnesses of extraterrestrial craft and beings. She interviewed "Kewper" on eleven hours of audiotape in the summer of 1998 before government agents warned him to not follow through with further interviews. She shared one portion of the audio, which concerned his 1959 briefing of President Eisenhower and Vice President Nixon about UFOs, human abductions, and animal mutilations, which Eisenhower indicated he was already familiar with.

Strange Disappearances Update
First hour guest, David Paulides, a former lawman turned investigative journalist, reported on several new unexplained disappearances, including an Arcadia firefighter named Mike Herdman who vanished inside the Los Padres National Forest while running barefoot after his dog. The dog turned up alive about one week after he disappeared. Paulides also cited the odd disappearance and death of outdoor writer/marathon runner Karen Sykes. She'd been hiking with a friend at Mount. Rainier National Park and had gone on a bit ahead. "Her friend said she was the last person on Earth anyone would believe would disappear hiking because she knew Mount Rainier and the trails better than anybody," he noted.

ISIS / ISIL CRISIS - OBAMA Asks CONGRESS to APPROVE $500 Million to ARM SYRIA REBELS
Obama administration seeking $500m to train 'moderate' Syrian rebels
Request to Congress comes as US searches for effective alternatives to Isis, which has overrun parts of northern Iraq

The Obama administration has proposed escalating US involvement in the Syrian civil war, asking Congress for $500m for the US military to train and equip "moderate" Syrian rebels.
The request to Congress on Thursday, heralded by Barack Obama's vow, made during a speech at West Point military academy, to step up assistance to a beleaguered Syrian force, comes as the administration searches for effective alternatives to the jihadist army that has carved out massive swaths of Syria and Iraq for an Islamic state.
Previously, US aid to the Syrian opposition that is fighting dictator Bashar al-Assad focused on non-lethal provisioning, while the Central Intelligence Agency focused on sending small arms and missiles to what the US calls the "vetted" Syrian moderates. Yet the Gulf Arab states have established an arms pipeline giving a substantive military edge to jihadist groups fighting Assad and one another.
Caitlin Hayden, the National Security Council spokeswoman, said in a statement that the requested aid would "help defend the Syrian people, stabilize areas under opposition control, facilitate the provision of essential services, counter terrorist threats, and promote conditions for a negotiated settlement."
US military training for the Syrians, three-and-a-half years into a conflict that has killed more than 150,000 people and recast the boundaries of the Middle East, is likely to take place in Jordan, where the US military already trains its Iraqi counterparts. It is also in line with Obama's desired template for counterterrorism, as unveiled at West Point, in which the US trains foreign security forces to assault terrorists themselves.
Syria Reportedly Sends Warplanes Across Iraq Border to Bomb ISIS
Claims come as Iraqi forces continue fighting radical Sunni militants from ISIS
Reports that Syrian warplanes carried out a cross-border attack on Iraqi towns this week is further evidence of the blurring between the two countries' borders as they face an offensive by Islamic extremists.
At least 57 Iraqi civilians were killed and more than 120 others were wounded by what local officials say were Syrian warplanes that struck several border areas of Anbar province Tuesday. These border cities are among those under the control of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, which seeks to create an Islamic caliphate that encompasses portions of Iraq in Syria. Reports of the Syrian incursion into Iraq is a reminder that the civil war in Syria and the unrest in Iraq are not isolated, but linked in ways that threaten the security of both. obama washington u.s.

Saudi funded and US-trained caliphate army gains 15,000 jihadist fighters
"We went into Libya and we got rid of that terrible Qaddafi, now it's a jihadist wonderland over there," Paul said. "There's jihadists everywhere. If we were to get rid of Assad it would be a jihadist wonderland in Syria. It's now a jihadist wonderland in Iraq, precisely because we got over-involved."
Paul said ISIS does not pose a threat to the United States. Other Republicans, including Florida Senator Marco Rubio, insist the terror group is a threat to U.S. national security. Rubio said he believes ISIS poses an "extremely serious" threat and is more dangerous to the security of Americans than al-Qaeda.
"You have to ask yourself, are you willing to send your son, am I willing to send my son to retake back a city, Mosul, that they weren't willing to defend themselves?" Paul said. "I'm not willing to send my son into that mess."
Former Vice President Dick Cheney believes Paul is an isolationist.
"He doesn't believe we ought to be involved in that part of the world. I think it's absolutely essential. One of the things I worried about 12 years ago — and that I worry about today — is that there will be another 9/11 attack and that the next time it'll be with weapons far deadlier than airline tickets and box cutters."
RED ALERT! EBOLA Outbreak Sweeping Across Africa
The World Health Organization says "drastic action is needed" to stop the deadly Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa. It has sent teams of experts to help locals deal with the epidemic and WHO plans to meet next week to discuss how to contain it.
Relief workers on the ground said the epidemic has hit unprecedented proportions.
"The epidemic is out of control," said Dr. Bart Janssens, director of operations for Doctors Without Borders.
There have been at least 600 cases and 390 deaths in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, according to a WHO statement released Thursday. That's since the epidemic began in March, according to the latest World Health Organization figures.
Complicating matters, these countries have major medical infrastructure challenges and there is a real sense of mistrust from communities there of the help that has been sent. In Sierra Leone and Guinea, WHO has said that community members have thrown stones at health care workers trying to investigate the outbreak.

Webster Tarpley: ISIS is a Secret CIA army
Congressman Jeb Hensarling of Texas Seeks Total Destruction of US Export-Import Bank as Beijing, Brussels and Wall Street Rejoice, US Manufacturers Despair; If He Becomes Speaker, Maoist Tool Will Be Two Heartbeats Away from Presidency
Webster TarpleyHistorian and President of Washington Grove Institute, a think tank in Washington D.C, Webster Tarpley, discussed the conspiratorial mindset, and shared his intriguing analysis of current geopolitical and historical situations. More and more people are turning toward conspiracies because the "official story" behind such events as 9-11 and the JFK assassination are unbelievable or fantastic, he said. Tarpley doesn't consider himself a conspiracy theorist, but a seeker of truth, though he admitted that the uncovering of facts in many instances often does point to conspiracies. We live in an oligarchy run by financiers, and they often do conspire together for shared goals, he noted, adding that they compose a shadow government that secretly rules the US, intersecting with people at the State Dept., the CIA, and perhaps the Treasury and the Federal Reserve.
Tarpley spoke about his forthcoming book about Pearl Harbor and the assassination of FDR. We're told a lot of fakery about Roosevelt like he provoked Japan, and that he kept his Naval Admirals in the dark, but the opposite was true, he said. Further, a group of Wall St. Republicans that FDR put in control of the Pentagon wanted a defeat to weaken FDR in the postwar world, and Churchill knew the time and place of the Pearl Harbor attack but kept quiet in order to draw the US into the war, he continued. Roosevelt was poisoned by a female Russian painter in April 1945, Tarpley claimed, and Stalin reportedly told FDR's son "your father was poisoned/murdered by the Churchill gang."
Tarpley also commented on current situations in France, China, and Russia, as well as Syria and Libya, two countries that he visited during recent turmoils. America can get out of its economic woes by seizing control of the Federal Reserve, and stop using it to give 0% loans to bankers and financial interests, and instead give these loans with a hundred year maturity to the states, who could then start massive infrastructure rebuilding projects, he argued.
Webster Griffin Tarpley is a philosopher of history who seeks to provide the programs and strategies needed to overcome the current world crisis. As an activist historian he first became widely known for his book George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography (1992), a masterpiece of research which is still a must read. Tarpley is a member of the "world anti-imperialist conference" Axis for Peace, of Scholars for 9/11 Truth and of a research Netzwerk of German 9/11 authors founded in September 2006. He is featured in the film, Zero: an investigation into 9/11 During 2008, he warned of the dangers of an Obama presidency controlled by Wall Street with Obama: The Postmodern Coup, The Making of a Manchurian Candidate and Barack H. Obama: The Unauthorized Biography. His interest in economics is reflected in Surviving the Cataclysm: Your Guide Through the Worst Financial Crisis in Human HistoryAgainst Oligarchy. He is currently completing a study of Pearl Harbor as an episode in Wall Street's war against President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the New Deal, and FDR's economic bill of rights. His books have appeared in Japanese, German, Italian, French, and Spanish. From 1974 to 1984, he was a correspondent in central Europe, during which time he co-authored Chi ha ucciso Aldo Moro (Who Killed Aldo Moro, 1978) a study of international terrorism. In 1979-80, he appeared as commentator for Teleradiosole, a television station in Rome. From 1984 to 1996, he was a correspondent in Washington DC. Tarpley is the co-author of George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography (1992), which has sold 30,000 copies and remains the only critical biography of the former President. In 1997 he published an anthology entitled Against Oligarchy: Essays and Speeches 1970-1996. These books can be consulted on the internet at www.tarpley.net. His 9/11 Synthetic Terror, the Bible of the 9/11 Truth Movement, has sold over 20,000 copies. His two books on Obama are virtually the only critical ones in print from a progressive viewpoint. Tarpley has lectured in numerous colleges and universities around the world. In 1995 he was named a consultant to the Universal Ecological Academy of Moscow. He holds an MA from Skidmore College and a Ph.D. in history from the Catholic University of America. Webster Tarpley's talk show World Crisis Radio is now broadcast on the Genesis World Report on GCNLive Free Internet Streaming Radio, Saturdays, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm Eastern (1-3 Central, 11-1 Pacific), all 4 networks.

Background. The management of cardiovascular risk factors is important for prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ACVD). Visceral fat accumulation plays an important role in the clustering of cardiovascular risk factors, leading to ACVD. The present study investigated the gender-and age-specific relationship between obesity-related cardiovascular risk factor accumulation and computed tomography (CT)-measured fat distribution in a large-scale Japanese general population. Methods and results. Fat distribution was measured on CT scans in 12,443 subjects (males/females = 10,080/2,363), who underwent medical health check-up at 9 centers in Japan. The investigated obesity-related cardiovascular risk factors were hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and elevated blood pressure. Visceral fat area (VFA) for all males and old females showed almost symmetric distribution, while that of young females showed skewed distribution with a marked left shift. Only a small proportion of young females had large visceral fat and cardiovascular risk accumulation. The mean number of risk factors exceeded 1.0 at around 100 cm 2 for VFA in all groups, irrespective of gender, age (cut-off age 55), and BMI (cut-off BMI 25 kg/m 2). Conclusions. In this large-scale Japan-wide general population study, an absolute VFA value of about 100 cm 2 equated with obesity-related cardiovascular risk factor accumulation, irrespective of gender, age, and BMI. © 2012 Informa UK, Ltd.

PLoS ONE | Year: 2011
Background: Recently, rapid advances have been made in metabolomics-based, easy-to-use early cancer detection methods using blood samples. Among metabolites, profiling of plasma free amino acids (PFAAs) is a promising approach because PFAAs link all organ systems and have important roles in metabolism. Furthermore, PFAA profiles are known to be influenced by specific diseases, including cancers. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to determine the characteristics of the PFAA profiles in cancer patients and the possibility of using this information for early detection. Methods and Findings: Plasma samples were collected from approximately 200 patients from multiple institutes, each diagnosed with one of the following five types of cancer: lung, gastric, colorectal, breast, or prostate cancer. Patients were compared to gender- and age- matched controls also used in this study. The PFAA levels were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-electrospray ionization (ESI)-mass spectrometry (MS). Univariate analysis revealed significant differences in the PFAA profiles between the controls and the patients with any of the five types of cancer listed above, even those with asymptomatic early-stage disease. Furthermore, multivariate analysis clearly discriminated the cancer patients from the controls in terms of the area under the receiver-operator characteristics curve (AUC of ROC >0.75 for each cancer), regardless of cancer stage. Because this study was designed as case-control study, further investigations, including model construction and validation using cohorts with larger sample sizes, are necessary to determine the usefulness of PFAA profiling. Conclusions: These findings suggest that PFAA profiling has great potential for improving cancer screening and diagnosis and understanding disease pathogenesis. PFAA profiles can also be used to determine various disease diagnoses from a single blood sample, which involves a relatively simple plasma assay and imposes a lower physical burden on subjects when compared to existing screening methods. © 2011 Miyagi et al.

Background: We have recently reported on the changes in plasma free amino acid (PFAA) profiles in lung cancer patients and the efficacy of a PFAA-based, multivariate discrimination index for the early detection of lung cancer. In this study, we aimed to verify the usefulness and robustness of PFAA profiling for detecting lung cancer using new test samples.Methods: Plasma samples were collected from 171 lung cancer patients and 3849 controls without apparent cancer. PFAA levels were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-electrospray ionization (ESI)-mass spectrometry (MS).Results: High reproducibility was observed for both the change in the PFAA profiles in the lung cancer patients and the discriminating performance for lung cancer patients compared to previously reported results. Furthermore, multivariate discriminating functions obtained in previous studies clearly distinguished the lung cancer patients from the controls based on the area under the receiver-operator characteristics curve (AUC of ROC = 0.731 ~ 0.806), strongly suggesting the robustness of the methodology for clinical use. Moreover, the results suggested that the combinatorial use of this classifier and tumor markers improves the clinical performance of tumor markers.Conclusions: These findings suggest that PFAA profiling, which involves a relatively simple plasma assay and imposes a low physical burden on subjects, has great potential for improving early detection of lung cancer. © 2013 Shingyoji et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Pulse-wave velocity, the ankle-brachial index, and the visceral fat area are highly associated with colorectal adenoma

Digestive and Liver Disease | Year: 2014
Background: Although both colorectal neoplasms and atherosclerosis may be induced by visceral fat accumulation, no association between these factors has yet been elucidated. Methods: Among Japanese participants in our colonoscopic screening and annual surveillance programs, asymptomatic subjects were investigated. Visceral fat area was measured by computed tomography, and the ankle-brachial index and pulse-wave velocity (markers of systemic atherosclerosis) were also estimated. Colorectal findings during screening were investigated in association with these parameters. Results: Nine hundred and seven subjects (males: 71.9%; mean age: 57.3. ±. 8.7 years) were enrolled. Colorectal adenomas were identified during colorectal screening of 407 subjects (44.9%). The prevalence of all colorectal adenoma and advanced neoplasia increased with an elevated pulse-wave velocity from 32.2% (advanced neoplasia, 2.6) to 62.1% (8.4%) in higher quartiles (. p<. 0.001 and p=. 0.003). The risk of advanced neoplasia was higher in subjects with an abnormal ankle-brachial index (33% vs. 4.6%, p<. 0.001). Upon multivariate analysis, visceral fat area and pulse-wave velocity were associated with all adenoma, and the ankle-brachial index with advanced neoplasia. Conclusions: The risk of colorectal adenoma was strongly associated with visceral fat area and markers of atherosclerosis. Colorectal adenoma and atherosclerosis may share a common pathogenesis and the same populations are at high-risk. © 2014 Editrice Gastroenterologica Italiana S.r.l. Source

Methods: We analyzed 15,551 Japanese adults who had no history of gastrectomy, cholecystectomy, HP eradication, and didn't use proton pump inhibitors, anti-diabetic drugs, or anti-cholesterol drugs. 1,057 subjects who previously had HP eradication were analyzed separately. Results: Gallstones were detected in 409 of 8,625 men (4.74 %) and 285 of 6,926 women (4.11 %) by ultrasonography. Among the 25 factors univariately analyzed, age, HP infection, alcohol intake, weight, body mass index (BMI), and 14 blood test values (AST, ALT, ALP, γ-GTP, T-Chol, HDL-Chol, LDL-Chol, TG, TP, Hb, HbA1c, pepsinogen I, pepsinogen II, and pepsinogen I/II ratio) displayed significant association with gallstones (p < 0.05), whereas gender, smoking, height, and three blood test values (Alb, T-Bil, MCV) did not. Multivariate analysis showed that age, gender, alcohol intake, BMI, γ-GTP, LDL-Chol, TP, and HP infection had significant association (p < 0.05). Successive multiple logistic regression analysis calculating odds ratio (OR) and standardized coefficients (β) showed that age (OR/β = 1.57/0.450), BMI (OR/β = 1.30/0.264), HP infection (OR/β = 1.51/0.206), lower alcohol intake (OR/β = 1.33/0.144), γ-GTP (OR/β = 1.15/0.139), and pepsinogen I/II ratio (OR/β = 1.08/0.038) have significant positive association with gallstones, whereas gender does not. The gallstone prevalence among HP-negative, HP-eradicated, and HP-positive subjects was 3.81, 4.73 and 6.08 %, respectively. The matched analysis controlling age, BMI, γ-GTP, alcohol intake, pepsinogen I/II ratio and gender also demonstrated that gallstone prevalence among HP-eradicated subjects was significantly lower compared with HP-positive subjects (p < 0.05). Conclusions: HP infection is positively associated with gallstones. HP eradication may lead to prevention of gallstones. © 2013 Springer. Source
