MedImmune, LLC, Rockville, MD
PURPOSE:Interleukin-9 (IL-9) increases airway inflammation, obstruction and hyperresponsiveness, mucin production, mast cell generation, and Th2 lymphocyte and eosinophil accumulation in experimental systems. Conversely, blocking IL-9 reduces airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness in animal models of asthma. Thus, blocking IL-9 may provide benefit in asthma. MEDI-528, a humanized, IL-9 monoclonal antibody, is currently in development by MedImmune, LLC as a potential therapy for asthma. Single ascending subcutaneous doses of MEDI-528, up to 9 mg/kg, have shown no serious adverse effects in healthy volunteers. The current report summarizes the first clinical experience with multiple subcutaneous doses in asthmatics.
METHODS:MI-CP-131 is Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple SC doses of MEDI-528, ranging from 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mg/kg, in patients with mild to moderate atopic asthma. Patients received 8 total doses over a two week period and were followed for a total of 150 days. This report summarizes the blinded safety information from the first two cohorts (0.3 and 1.0 mg/kg, 12 patients each) in the study.
RESULTS:No serious adverse events (SAEs) have been reported. There have been no reports of deaths, interruptions of study drug administration, discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs), or anaphylaxis. The three most common AEs were nasopharyngitis, urinary tract infection, and blood in the urine. All AEs were mild to moderate, and all resolved without sequelae. No clinically significant trends in laboratory values were observed, and all abnormalities were mild or moderate in severity.
CONCLUSION:Multiple subcutaneous doses of either 0.3 mg/kg or 1.0 mg/kg of MEDI -528 appear to be well tolerated in patients with mild to moderate atopic asthma.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS:MEDI-528 merits continued evaluation as a potential therapy for asthma.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dunkinjean from Great for seed starting! I bought these growing pellets last year and they worked wonderfully. I did put one pellet in each tray and then added a little more (about 1/2 pellet) since I like the trays to be full. As previous reviews from other people, make sure the pellet lies flat in the tray and hold down with utensil when pouring warm/hot water over the pellets for their expansion. I then stirred up the pellet soil if needed. I intend to purchase these pellets again for this year shortly.

Rated 2 out of 5 by elaine31347 from The little pellets never expanded with warm water! I like that there is a cover to create a greenhouse effect, and a system to keep the seeds moist. But the pellets did not expand, even after an hour of watering it and waiting. I had to take a knife to break it apart, and even then they didn't expand. I had to put regular potting soil in the individual holes. I just hope my seeds germinate!

Life on Earth
In the time that the Miffantiks roamed the earth, women were treated in a prejudice manner. So, it seemed normal for this race to think of a goddess to be passed around just to give birth to gods.
Her first offspring was dubbed the elementals. Quadruplets who were blessed by the gods upon birth to help to people on earth. The child gods and goddesses were named Verukag, Waquam, Terrum and Flanzen. Only the latter was a girl. As gods they matured more quickly than mortals and had become true adult gods by the time thier father and spun the earth once (24 hours to us)
Verukag gave the people fire to keep them warm while Waquam began poaring lakes and oceans for them to drink. There were some lakes that he created that look his fancy. He did not want the people to drink these so cursed them to make them taste salty and undrinkeable. Terrum gave new earth to the people while Flanzen dropped seeds into the new earth. When Waquam splashed the earth, plants grew bearing fruits that the people could eat. Flanzen also made life that was edible to the mortals. The seven gods had created a perfect home for the people.


text: tags: [skills] two iss sword muses, equal in power! equipped with good ol' epic jewels! whose song of silence will be louder? who'll be the winner in their duel? purpose: in this test we will see how the success rate of mass song of silence changes when old (normal) epic jewelry is used: zaken's earring and antharas' earring. we will do three tests. test conditions: in our first test, one level 99 iss sword muse will be using mass song of silence against another level 99 iss sword muse. both characters are without equipment or buffs. then, we would like to test the protective properties of epic jewelry. to do that, the second iss sword muse will equip two earrings: zaken's earring and antharas' earring. finally, in our third test we will check whether the earrings still increase the success rate of the new "silenceâ€. the first iss sword muse will also equip a zaken's earring and an antharas' earring, while the second sword muse is still equipped with the same jewelry he used in the previous test. 100 attempts will be made for each test. this must be sufficient for spotting the difference, since, if the earrings still provide the effect, altogether they are supposed to give a 50% bonus (to attack or defense). the results are shown in the table: {tr}equipmentchance{tr}no jewelry65{tr}earrings (defense)5{tr}earrings (attack + defense)59{/tr}{/tr}{/tr}{/tr} conclusion: judging by the test results, we can say for sure that zaken's earring and antharas' earring give a bonus to both attack and defense when the silence skill is used by sword muses. although in our test the defense bonus equaled 60% while the attack bonus equaled 54%, there are no grounds for assuming that the bonus is different from the 50% indicated in the game. a slight variation is due to the fact that during the test we used a minimal number of attempts.

Page Edited : GMOxDOC22 : Defining Geronimo server runtimes and servers
Defining Geronimo server runtimes and servers has been edited by Ying Tang (May 31, 2009).Content:
A Geronimo Server Runtime in GEP associates a Geronimo 2.1 Server installation with a JRE to be used to run that server. A Geronimo Server in GEP associates a Geronimo Server Runtime with a profile consisting of Security settings, Publish Settings, Port Configuration, JVM settings to be used with that Geronimo Server Runtime.
Defining a Geronimo server runtime
In order to define a new Geronimo Server v2.2 Runtime, follow the steps below:
Additional Server Runtimes to use a different Geronimo server installation or a different JRE can be added in a similar manner.
Defining a Geronimo server
Follow the steps below to define a new Geronimo v2.1 Server:
This completes defining a new Geronimo 2.2 server. The newly added server will appear in the Servers view. The server can be started by selecting the server and clicking on the Start server button.
Administering the server
To view the server status in the Java EE perspective, open the Servers view. GEP monitors the server's status and sets the stopped, starting, and started indicators appropriately. This information is accurate even if you do not start or stop the server using Eclipse.
Starting the server
Use this procedure to start a server using the Eclipse framework.
Stopping the server
Use this procedure to stop a server using the Eclipse framework.
Launching the administrative console
Use this procedure to launch the server's administrative console in Eclipse.
Note: The server must be started for this option to be available and for it to work.
Launching the support
Use this procedure to launch the server's support page in Eclipse.
Debugging the server
Use this procedure to start a server in debug mode using the Eclipse framework.
Creating custom server assemblies
Starting from Geronimo 2.2, you can customize server assemblies with GEP in Eclipse. See Assembling a server using GEP for more details about creating server assemblies using GEP.
Local deployment
Use this procedure to deploy Java EE assets to a local server.
Removing an asset that has been published to the server
Once an asset has been published to the server, you must use the tool's Add/Remove project option if you want to remove it from the server. If you simply remove the asset without removing its project, the asset will remain deployed on the server.
Remote deployment
You can use the same steps discussed above to deploy a Java EE asset to a remote server, but there are additional considerations.
Debugging a remote application on an already running server
Before debugging the remote application on a running server, you have to start the server under jdpa debugger using geronimo.sh/bat:
geronimo jpda run
geronimo jpda start
Use this procedure to attach a remote application (a WAR file in this example) to an already running server started in debug mode.
Creating a new project
Once Geronimo Server Runtimes are defined, Eclipse provides these runtime for selecting as a target runtime while creating an EJB, Web and Java EE projects. Notice the Target Runtime field in the Dynamic Web Project dialog shown in the figure below.
In order to run an application on Geronimo, follow the steps below:
The application can also be run on Geronimo by adding the project to the Geronimo server explicitly as given below:

Creighton University, Omaha, NE
The pathogenesis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) involves a shift from the host's native, non-pathogenic resident flora, to an opportunistic, ICU-acquired colonizing flora rich in pathogens. This study was undertaken to determine whether restoration of the normal host flora using a commercially available probiotic agent could successfully prevent VAP.
After obtaining informed consent, adult patients expected to require prolonged mechanical ventilation were stratified by APACHE II score and randomized to double-blinded administration of 10(9) CFU of Lactobacillus GG or placebo suspended in vehicle and applied to the oropharynx and stomach every 12 hours. When clinically diagnosed with VAP using ACCP criteria, quantitative cultures using non-bronchoscopic bronchoalveolar lavage were collected to microbiologically confirm infection.
Key baseline characteristics were not different between the two groups. Compared to placebo (n=70), Lactobacillus (n=68) administration was associated with significantly lower rates of clinically-diagnosed VAP (25.0% vs. 47.1%, p=0.03) and microbiologically-confirmed VAP (19.1% vs. 40.0%, p=0.03). There was no significant difference in mortality (12% vs. 17%, p=0.47). Patients given Lactobacillus had significantly less ICU-associated diarrhea (3.1 days vs. 6.2 days, p=0.001), and Clostridium difficile disease (6% vs. 19%, p=0.02). Trends were seen towards reduced rates of bacteremia (38% vs. 73%, p=0.08) and urinary tract infections (21% vs. 33%, p=0.14) with Lactobacillus administration. Although total antibiotic consumption was not different between the two study arms (13.3 days vs. 16.3 days, p=0.16), patients given Lactobacillus had less antibiotics prescribed for pneumonia (8.6 days vs. 5.6 days, p=0.05) or Clostridium difficile (2.1 days vs. 0.5 days, p=0.02). No adverse events attributable to Lactobacillus administration were encountered.
Administration of the probiotic agent Lactobacillus GG to critically ill patients is safe and reduces the frequency of clinically-diagnosed and microbiologically-confirmed VAP. This probiotic agent also holds promise for the prevention of other nosocomial infections.
Probiotic therapy may provide a novel, inexpensive, non-antibiotic opportunity for the prevention of VAP.

It's in the Blood // Claire & MohinderMature
"Well it's a rather handy little gift," she replied, looking down at it for a moment before going back to her peppers. For a moment, Claire got caught up in the sheer normalcy of what they were doing. In the brief silence, Mohinder could've been William, her brother; he could've been a dear friend; he could've been a lover. They were making breakfast together, laughing. As she looked over the selection of cheeses–the man had a selection, and that alone made her like him a teeny bit more–Claire couldn't help but think of how nice it was. Not that she minded her typical solitude, or the company of her sibling, but there was a certain lack of…warmth in that atmosphere. They were too busy staying alive, staying hidden, to cultivate this sort of coziness.
Steering her mind to the more pleasant task of cheeses again,she picked out a sharp cheddar and set it aside. It ought to go nicely with the assortment they had laid out. All in all, a pleasant scene.
Then he broke the comfortable silence with a decidedly not normal question, one that didn't fit the domesticity of the task at hand. One she had honestly expected to come long before cooking. Making sure one's house guest wasn't being followed felt like it should've been more important than offering her eggs, but then, they'd gotten caught up.
"My abilities have been my most closely guarded secret," she answered him as she finished cutting the last of the peppers, face and voice somber, "and I assure you, the amount of people aware of them can be counted on less than one hand."
The only people still alive who knew of her talents were her employers and her brother. To most of the underworld scum who might whisper of her talents, she was merely a tall tale, something to scare naughty children. None of them had any real influence and she didn't fear them talking. She knew for a fact that no one was tracking her; her own job was to do such things, and certain precautions were always taken to ensure her own safety. It shouldn't have surprised her to learn that the doctor had his own safety net in place. She wasn't the only 'special' he'd helped after all, and she doubted she was the only dangerous one. It seemed Mohinder had his own past. Claire tucked that away for later rumination.
She laid the knife down on the cutting board and leaned forward on the counter. "The passages might be something to see after we get my things, unless you would feel better about me knowing where they are before we leave?" His level of trust was baffling. He was a smart man, she could see that, so he must be quite sure in himself to just tell her such things. Or perhaps her years of hiding and line of work had caused her to be overly paranoid. In his position, she wouldn't have let herself in. How did he know she wasn't going to kill him? That he wasn't being tracked?
"I heal quickly," she said, shrugging, pushing aside her train of thought yet again "but not abnormally so. Sad to say." She didn't address his mention of her safety, however, sweet though it was. Claire felt safe almost anywhere, confident in her own abilities. But now was not the time to brag about her kill record.

When visiting Closeburn, Matakauri Lodge is a great choice to consider. You can grab a bite to eat at the restaurant and visit the spa to be pampered with massages, facials, or mani/pedis. There's an outdoor pool and a bar/lounge, and rooms at this luxurious lodge get the details right with fireplaces and iPod docks.

A Brief Respite
Remeck nodded, not quite understanding, but unwilling to press the issue, and watched Roxanne walk away, her bright red hair a beacon amongst the crowd. With a start he reached for his pouch, realizing too late that he had forgotten to pay Roxanne her stipend for working with him. Though, in retrospect, he had never informed the strange red-headed girl that he had been hiring her as a helper back at Balamb Garden. Promising himself that he would rectify the situation as soon as he could, he started a mental check list. For now, the least he could do was make sure that accommodations were made for the two of them.
His first stop was the village inn. There, he found the place filled to the gills with travellers and merchants trapped by the sudden siege. It took some haggling, but Remeck finally managed to get a particularly annoyed Shinra merchant to vacate his room till nightfall so that the pair might rest before they ventured into the fray. It had cost an arm and a leg, and Remeck silently thanked the heavens that Balamb Garden was fronting the bill.
Next, Remeck wandered into town. Surprisingly, despite the siege, the townsfolk seemed to continue about their business with an earnest intensity. It was still too early for supplies to be running dry, the attack a mild annoyance to some, a surreal event to many. With little difficulty, Remeck found the local guildhall for the Order of the White Lily. The left hand of Baron's magical might. Far more numerous than their black magic wielding cousins in the Order of the Black Lotus, they were scattered across the continent in the cities, towns and hamlets, tending to the needs of the populance.
Stepping into the small single story building, Remeck caught the tail end of a hurried conversation between the local white mage and a messenger. "…and don't forget to let Master Thomas know that we need to continue to stockpile ethers and potions. I won't be able to keep up with the injured forever." With a curt nod, the messenger bowed himself past Remeck and hurried out the door as the white mage turned his attention to Remeck. "Hello, can I help you?"
"Yes, I'd like you to heal a wound for me please." Remeck dropped his gear in the corner and removed his jacket so that the white mage could get a look. From somewhere beneath the thick white robes the healer produced a small knife and gingerly cut away the bandage and examined the wound.
"Not very serious at all. You've already had it partially treated." The white mage sucked on his teeth for a moment, probably calculating the least powerful cure spell he would need to get Remeck back into tip top shape. If ever the goblionids launched a serious assault, he'd need all his strength and more to keep the townsfolk alive.
"Well, I can't heal you for free, but given the situation and the fact that you look like a person who'd be useful in a fight, how about 50 gill?"
Remeck blinked and nodded. That was a 90% discount. Clearly the white mage was predicting an eventual blood bath where every sword arm would count. The white mage reached out with both arms, placing both hands on Remeck's head and muttered the words to a cure spell. His hands glowed a muted green and Remeck felt a subdued warmth wash over him. In its wake, he found that all the aches and pains in his body gone. With a deep breath, the white mage sat back, his breathing slightly shallow, as if he had just rushed to arrive.
Allowing the white mage time to catch his breath, Remeck counted out the coins before thanking him and gathering his gear. Just outside the door, Remeck nearly ran into Roxanne. Pulling up short, Remeck grinned sheepishly just a little embarrassed that this woman was taller than he was. "Want me to wait for you?" he asked, brushing some of his hair back, only to have it promptly fall back into place.
"No. I can handle this on my own." came the brusque reply.
Remeck shrugged and pulled a pouch of coins from his pocket. "By the way," he tossed the bag to Roxanne, "this is payment. For working with me." Remeck added, answering Roxanne's questioning gaze.
"I'll see you back at the Inn then. 203. We have the room till nightfall when we'll be moving out." Walking away, Remeck waved over his shoulder. Next he'd visit the armory and pick up a spear for tonight. Behind him, Roxanne would find the pouch filled with 1000 gill.

The server market is taking off again after three years of slowing growth, says research firm IDC.
According to IDC's quarterly report, the server market grew 6.3 percent year-over-year to US$13.1 billion for the second quarter of 2007. The firm attributes this growth to users refreshing the servers used in their data centers and to expanded distributed-workload deployments.
Servers priced at under $25,000 sustained the largest growth -- at 11 percent year-over-year -- while growth of midrange enterprise servers (costing $25,000 to $499,000) grew by .2 percent, and high-end enterprise servers (costing more than $500,000) showed a 1.7 percent increase.
IBM led the server market with a 31 percent revenue share, followed by HP with a market share of more than 28 percent. Sales of IBM's System x, System z and System p servers accounted for the majority of the company's server revenue, while HP's growth could be attributed to ProLiant and BladeSystem servers, IDC says. IBM mainframes running the z/OS operating system accounted for 9.5 percent of all server revenue in the second quarter.
Sun's server revenue grew 5.6 percent year-over-year; the company is the No. 3 player with 13.1 percent of the market. Dell, which showed more than a 20 percent revenue growth in x86 servers, follows Sun.
On the operating system front, Linux servers represented 13.6 percent of server revenue. Microsoft Windows accounted for 38.2 percent of server revenue, and Unix system revenue tallied in at 31.7 percent of the market.

It is world-famous as the rest home for troubled stars and the biggest name in British psychiatry. Now the Priory, the clinic favoured by addicted, depressed celebrities such as Robbie Williams, Caroline Aherne and Michael Barrymore, has unearthed a new market: GCSE students.
The south-west London clinic last week opened a purpose-built centre for adolescents to coincide with the start of the exam season. A growing market of stressed pupils prone to self-harm, suicide and depression are expected to keep 52 new beds full this summer.
The most tested generation of students in history is increasingly struggling to cope with the pressures posed by GCSE and A-level exams, said Peter Smith, hospital director of the Priory in Roehampton. Youngsters will be offered the same level of treatment - and pay the same fees of up to £500 a night - as high-profile residents.
'Exam time is a particularly stressful period during which young people often experience mental health problems ranging from anxiety to more serious forms of eating disorders and self-harm,' said Smith.
The move came the week 15-year-old Tina Dziki committed suicide, apparently over the pressure of GCSE exams. The bright teenager took her life last Monday in the grounds of Dunraven School, one of south London's best state schools. Dziki was due to take her religious education exam a year early last week. For many her suicide was a grim sign that the exam season was truly under way.
Figures collated last week by the charity Childline reveal a 50 per cent increase in calls concerning exam pressure over the past year.
'Fear of failure and the pressure to succeed can be immense. They don't want to let parents, teachers and themselves down,' said Adrian Brown of Childline.
Smith says figures from accident and emergency wards show that more than 500 15 to 19 year-olds attempt suicide every year. In addition, one in five pupils in south London develops a mental health problem linked to the pressures of adolescence.
Dziki's death follows numerous warnings that the current crop of pupils are under too much pressure. Three years ago the 150,000-strong Association of Teachers and Lecturers warned pupils would take their lives because of the increasing burden of exam pressure. And the moderate Professional Association of Teachers has likened the existing testing regime to 'child abuse'.
Yet the government has so far failed to catalogue suicides caused by the exam system, prompting critics to claim that it is failing to monitor the extreme psychological effects of the testing regime it has introduced.

Withings Go
Go for better
Everyone knows that getting enough activity is crucial to good health. But measuring this activity shouldn't be a job. That's why we designed our latest activity tracker to be fun, easy-to-use, and accessible. Already honored with numerous design awards, Go features an always-on E InkTM screen, a battery that lasts up to 8 months, and seamless pairing with our highly-rated Health Mate app. Simple on the outside, highly-advanced on the inside: Withings Go is perfect for anyone ready to give activity tracking a go.
Go for it
Motivation to go the extra mile:
The Withings Go screen always displays how active you've been
each day, and how far you are from your goal.
The Go also automatically syncs with the highly-rated Health Mate app
to provide you with in-depth metrics.
Data: Why 10,000 steps is important & how to reach your goal
- Activity
- Time
Go further
Automatically track run and swim sessions and see them come to life in the app. Withings Go is sweatproof and water-resistant to 50m so you never have to stop.
- Activité
- Heure
Go on
Thanks to the energy-saving E Ink screen, the Go display never quits and reads perfectly in all conditions. Bright sunlight and water? No problem. You'll always see your activity progress and you can access the watch function at any time without ever worrying about your battery.
Go for a bite
Food logging helps you stay on track, but it doesn't give you the big picture. Go will tell you what you burn each day, and with nutrition integration, you can easily find the right balance between what you're taking in and the effort you're putting out.
Go to bed
How much and how well you sleep is crucial to your health. Lack of quality sleep can lead to accidents and to an increased risk of chronic diseases. But Withings Go never sleeps: you go to bed; it goes to work. Then you wake up to a comprehensive sleep cycle analysis that can help you know how to have better nights.
Go for gold
The screen always shows you how close you are to your goal and lets you know when you've achieved it. In the Health Mate app you'll get rewards, advice, and the option to invite your friends to join you for some healthy competition.
Works with iOS 7+ and Android 4.3.3+
Healthy day
It's the first time you've reached 10 000 steps in a day.
Go the distance
Up to 8-month battery
Studies show many people abandon activity trackers because charging them is a hassle. That's why we made Withings Go work on a simple button cell that lasts up to 8 months. No cord, no need to recharge = no stopping you.
E InkTM Technology
The screen is always on, but conserves power brilliantly. Bright sunlight and water? No problem. E InkTM is highly legible in any condition.
Water-resistant up to 50m
From the automatic swim tracking to showering to a sudden downpour -- Go has no fear of H2O.
Go for versatility
How will you want to wear it? Every Go comes with a wristband and a clip so you can decide on the look and feel that works for you. You can also easily customize your Go screen by choosing white on black, or black on white in your settings.
- Belt
- Keys
- Wrist
Go look
With five colors to choose from,
you're sure to find one that suits your style.
Go for it
What are you waiting for? Time to Go!
What people are saying about Withings Go
"A big improvement for trackers on the lower end of the scale: there's finally a display to look at!"
"You'll be more interested in the Go for what it doesn't do: Run out of battery."
"A low-cost fitness tracker with high-end design."

OC Mail Thief: Please, Please Go Easy on Me & My Meth Habit!
Vargas: See, I was trying to lose weight with Meth and then . . . Oh, never mind
Orange County's Amanda Helen Vargas apparently has never heard of Jenny Craig.
Vargas stole other people's private mail in hopes of finding value information, cash or credit cards that ultimately could support a methamphetamine habit she claims she started a decade ago as a way to lose weight.
Vargas committed the federal offense while already on criminal probation, but--claiming rough circumstance growing up and bad treatment by men in her life--sought leniency this month from U.S. District Court Judge Josephine Staton Tucker.
To Vargas' delight, federal probation officers recommended a punishment of two months of incarceration.

But Assistant United States Attorney Lawrence E. Kole believed that Vargas deserved a tougher sentence: four months in prison plus four more months in a federal halfway house.
Inside the Ronald Reagan Federal Courthouse in Santa Ana, Tucker handed the 33-year-old Vargas her wish: a two-month sentence plus three years of supervised probation.
She must also pay $3,576 in victim restitution.

In Norv We Trust
It's time Norv Turner gets the credit he is due, says BOLTHYPE's Jeff Williams. Turner has taken a beating from the fans and the media, and yet through it all Norv has his Chargers playing their best football as they roll into the playoffs.
When are we going to learn? For a third straight year, the Chargers got off to a rocky start, and Norv Turner was believed to be a failure. For the third straight year, the Chargers fought back from that rocky start to make the playoffs. Each of the last three years I picked the Chargers to win the Super Bowl (I know, big surprise), and in the previous two years they came close but not close enough. Through it all Norv has taken a beating from the fans, and I'll admit to leading the charge against him more than once. But it is past time to give Norv his due credit. He has coached through an incredible number of injuries and poor defensive schemes yet still manages to have his team playing their best football in December and January. This season more than ever, he has been passionate on the sidelines, he has been incredibly focused, and most importantly he has Philip Rivers playing like an MVP.
Norv Turner was brought in for a number of different reasons, including his familiarity with the offense, and his ability to get along with others (like his GM), but primarily he was brought in to mentor Rivers. After their first year together back in 2007, Rivers performance really took off. In 2008 he posted career highs in passing yards, TD's, completion percentage, and QB rating. This year he has already set a new career high for passing yards with 4155, and tied his career low for interceptions with just 9 (in a full season, assuming he doesn't play enough Sunday to throw for another one).
Back in 2007 I wrote about Turner's expert handling of QB's, and compared the numbers put up by Troy Aikman early in his career to what Rivers might be able to accomplish under Turner's tutelage. Turner was offensive coordinator for the Cowboys from 1991-1993, when Aikman threw for career highs in yards, touchdowns, completion percentage, and QB rating. As previously mentioned, Rivers has already thrown for career highs of his own under Turner, and has greatly exceeded the numbers put up by Aikman in that same time span. In fact, the only stat that Rivers has not topped Aikman in is Super Bowl victories.
Aikman won two Super Bowls while Norv was the offensive coordinator for the Cowboys, and he was named MVP of Super Bowl XXVII. Rivers is still waiting for his first opportunity to play in a Super Bowl. After so many chances and missed opportunities, will this be his year? I'm going to stick to my prediction and say yes, and this year I really believe it. And I really believe in Norv.

I have to admit that Norv has done a great job coaching the Chargers. I have to admit that I hated what Norv was doing as a head coach for our football team. I was still in love with Marty Schotteinhiemer and what he had done with our football team, especially our defense. Marty was a defensive guy, 'cause he played on defense in his days in the NFL, and that led the chargers to be the number 1 total defense for about 1-2 seasons. Now, Norv is an offensive guy as we all know, I have never seen the Chargers offense this good out of all my years of watching the chargers play, since I was 5 in 1995. Really it's really really good. I'm falling in love with what Norv is doing, and since he's an offensive guy our defense has fallen a little bit over the years, but still, I think we're pretty decent on defense, especially with all the injuries. That's one thing Marty didn't have as a coach for the Chargers, injuries. Injuries weren't a problem for us back then, but they are a problem now. Norv has done a great job with what he has, 2nd string 3rd string, maybe 4th string backups, and their backups backup, Norv is just a genius and is directing this team really really well.
Well that's all I've got to say.
But great post Jeff.

I've never seen the Chargers offense more dominant; Norv is at the top of his game, and Philip Rivers has really blossomed with a coach who is willing to let him play to his abilities. The Chargers will be a deadly team come playoff time, and Norv has a chance to erase many of the knocks on him and really cement his legacy.
Norv is a genius. I have followed his teams since Washington and was irate when he was dismissed by Dan Snyder, especially the way he was dismissed. I always believed he would be where he is today. Nobody has a more exciting offense than Norv and he has done a great job at keeping his team focused and ready to play regardless of injuries to starters. The backups perform admirably. A testament to a true leader.
HOLD ON THERE fellow Bolt fans! You can cue the music, but it's not time to "kiss the bride" just yet! There's still one regular season game to go and, of course, the all-important playoffs (the ring, the vows, Goodell's "power vested in me"; and THEN the Kiss).
It's a little premature to anoint Norval, just in case Rivers has a (gulp) bad game, or Norv bungles critical clock management again at the end of a game. And although "I DO" (see, another wee wedding pun) agree Norv has done a wonderful job this year, especially keeping and playing the WHOLE team despite injuries, this is no time to jump the gun or presume anything. However, that said; If (nay, WHEN!) our Chargers WIN this upcoming Super Bowl, I vote for Rivers as League MVP and Norv as NFL Coach of the Year. No doubt about it.
Meanwhile, everyone vote for Amanda today and every day, no exceptions!
Go BOLTS!!!
BTW, Just for review I think there have been two times the Charger's offense has been even better than it is right now:
(1) The Air Coryell days when Chuck Muncie was also in the backfield.
(2) The Air Gillman days when both Lincoln and Lowe were running, and Alworth was unstoppable as a flanker.
This is to take nothing away from the great current crew though, although I do think they benefit greatly (as does the whole NFL) statistically because of gross rule changes in recent years. Nowadays (by design), every NFL game isn't over until the last 13 seconds because every advantage goes to the offenses.
Go BOLTS!!!
"When are we going to learn? For a third straight year, the Chargers got off to a rocky start,"...
Actually, it's there 6th straight year of being either 3-3 (5 times), and once they were 4-2.
It's what this team does, under Marty, under Norv. Doesn't matter.
"When are we going to learn..., it's what this team does, under Marty, under Norv. Doesn't matter."
Sorry, but I cannot concur (although I'm happy with the chance result) about the "logic" of the idea that *because* the franchise HAS done something in the past, it in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER is destined, or even likely, to therefore do it again; is just nonsense. And although such loose thinking helps keeps a nearby casino open 24 hours all year, it's a very poor basis for training and supposition for a sports franchise; even our beloved Chargers. In other words, bad habits and bad luck will catch up with everybody eventually, and you can never "enter" a running river in the same place twice (because the water IS moving).
Just sharing a thought, but I do *hope* you're right.
Go BOLTS!!!
Norv had me in question the first 3 weeks, odd play calling, too conservative and a lack of passion from the "D". But a Charger fan is a fan that is now used to these minor set backs, and yes Team Norv and Co. showed again just how it's done on the West Side. Rivers is and will become the QB of the next few years and this is the Year of The Big Game which we will win. Why, just listen to the players, they are in total sync with Norv's "one week only - no ups no downs - believe in my system" approach completely. He is now showing that he is a Leader and they are following...he has been hot on his play calls and time management and they are poised to be the most dangerous Team to play in the playoffs. What is great is that until only the last 2 weeks, the national media has all but ignored the Chargers playing up only the Saints and Colts stuff, great it keeps us focused like a fine tuned killing machine on the task at hand. Thanks Norv and his entire staff to get so far with such adversity...it takes a Leader to lead a Team...MVP no question!

Updated May 6, 2013 Updating Adam Rubin's report this past weekend, which you can read about below, Mets GM Sandy Alderson spoke to the Daily News and said the following: "It's no secret Jordany has had a slightly different approach to some things, there is a certain level of tolerance that we have. I hope he doesn't exceed that level." As I've been alluding to for months now, my conspiracy theories and pursuit of this so-called "non-story" wages on. Alderson is hoping that Valdespin continues to mature, but clearly he is as close to "persona non grata" as you can get despite his enormous potential and upside. "I am hoping he will continue to mature," Alderson said. "He has, I think, made progress. Hope he continues to do so on that front." I just call them the way I see them. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, just someone who is very good at reading between the lines. So let's talk about this non-story some more, shall we?

David Ortiz endorses Red Sox' additions of Mike Napoli, Shane Victorino
CAP CANA, Dominican Republic -- For most of the past two weeks, David Ortiz has been here, under the sun in his native country, preparing to host his annual celebrity golf event to raise money for children who need medical care.
So, consider this a long-distance thumbs-up from Big Papi to Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington.
On the eve of his weekend-long Caribbean party, Ortiz endorsed the Sox' moves this week to bolster their lineup by reaching agreements on twin, three-year, $39 million contracts with free agent first baseman/catcher Mike Napoli and right fielder Shane Victorino. Napoli is expected to be introduced in a Fenway Park press conference Friday, while Victorino's deal is still pending the formality of a physical.
"Yeah, man, we're getting good players," said Ortiz, the recipient of a two-year, $26 million contract extension last month. "That's what it's all about. That's how you win games."
In particular, Ortiz is excited by the addition of Napoli, a slugger whom he has admired for years. Of course, it's been nearly impossible for any of the Red Sox not to notice Napoli, who has batted .288 with 15 home runs 33 RBI, a .379 on-base percentage and a 1.075 OPS against them in his career.
But Ortiz appreciates Napoli's power, especially from the right side of the plate. Not since Adrian Beltre in 2010 have the Red Sox had a right-handed hitter with at least 25 homers to provide a middle-of-the-order complement to lefty-swinging Ortiz.
"Power is hard to find right now," Ortiz said. "Whenever you get a power hitter, you've got to keep him. In today's day, Napoli is one of those guys. And of course, you need guys that are game-changers, and he's one of them. It's going to be fun to watch. It's going to be fun watching Napoli hit balls over the Monster."
Ortiz also noted the preponderance of good left-handed pitchers in the AL East, from the New York Yankees' CC Sabathia and Andy Pettitte to the Tampa Bay Rays' David Price and Matt Moore. The Toronto Blue Jays recently traded for veteran lefty Mark Buehrle and still have Ricky Romero, who won 15 games in 2011 before struggling badly this year.
Adding Napoli and lefty-mashing new left fielder Jonny Gomes to a lineup that includes fellow righty hitters Dustin Pedroia and Will Middlebrooks should only help the Red Sox neutralize opposing lefties.
"I think the American League is overran with good left-handed pitching," Ortiz said. "I think we're going to have a lot of lefties coming in. Even before last year, when we went and got (lefty-hitting Carl Crawford) and (Adrian Gonzalez), we had a lot of left-handers in the lineup. Teams won't be putting that many lefties against us now."
Ortiz is hosting several current and former players here this weekend, including Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, Dodgers shortstop Hanley Ramirez, Blue Jays infielder Edwin Encarnacion, 2004 Red Sox teammates Pedro Martinez, Tim Wakefield, Kevin Millar and Johnny Damon and Hall of Famers Jim Rice, Juan Marichal and Barry Larkin.
Meanwhile, Victorino is holding his own charity golf event in Hawaii. Ortiz has gotten to know Victorino over the past few years through Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard and believes the 32-year-old switch-hitter will bring speed and energy to the lineup.
"He's my boy," Ortiz said of Victorino. "He's going to be a guy that people are going to love in Boston. He goes at it hard. And he's got a lot of adrenaline going on. I love that. That gets me going."
And if Cherington continues the Red Sox' makeover by upgrading the starting rotation, Ortiz will be even more enthused.
"I think we're on our way," Ortiz said. "We've got some more things to do, but I think that's a good way to start things."

The site is mostly closed down for the winter with a small number of pitches in use, most of them are full at the moment with transitees like us, although we are the only Brits, most are Dutch heading South.

Coeur d'Alene
Mayor Steve Widmyer, left and NIC Head Wrestling Coach Pat Whitcomb, in the
back, read to a group of Sorensen Magnate School students Thursday before
giving each student a book. The only requirement is the students are asked to
read it to someone.
The NIC wrestling
team has distributed more than 13,000 books to elementary students through the
Shirley Parker Reading program, which was established in 2002 in partnership
with Parker Toyota. The program was named in honor of Doug Parker's late wife,
Shirley, who was a big supporter of both reading and wrestling. The program
puts at least one book in the hands of every first-grader in Coeur d'Alene
School District each year.

V - FirefightMature
Chapter Five: Firefight
We walked out of the alley and onto the streets after a minute, Caleb seemed glad to see me as he retold everything that had happened with Emily and him since he had left. I chuckled at one of his annecdote when he stopped dead, turning around and looking behind us at the road.
I looked at him puzzled and then at the road just as a black sedan turned abruptly onto our street, going toward us way past the sluggish speed limit of the area.
"What is it?" I asked.
I saw his eyes narrow with comprehension as the windows rolled down on our side and something was set against the window.
"Shit! Drive-by! Run!" He yelled, grabbing me and pushing, borderline throwing me behind a dumpster a fraction of an instant before the bullets started to fly and fill the air. I knocked my shoulder hard against a wall and stumbled back up as the car stopped in it's wake with four guys dressed in leather stepped out of the car, holding sub machine guns.
Caleb was by miracle still alive, kneeling down, holding himself off the sidewalk with his hand. I could see that he was bleeding profusely. He didn't seem to mind however as I stumbled back up and yelled at me.
"Sebastian, run. Now!"
I wasn't sure what he had gotten himself tangled into but I was rather sure that I didn't want to find out. Much less get involved. Two of the gentlemen seemed to notice me and they started to walk in my direction with a quick pace.
I ran without asking questions, sprinting as fast as I could without looking behind for the pursuers. I dashed in the alley, taking the first turn I could as to avoid giving them a clear shot in case they decided those guns would be useful.
I crossed the next street and ran in another alley, finally looking behind. I could see one of the men running after me, gun strapped around his shoulder. When he saw me stop, he took aim and shot a quick burst at me. One of the bullets grazed me and cut onto my shoulder, sending me into a new world of hurt. I didn't let it get to me though, in my days, I had gotten into more than one fight, pain was something I had learned to deal with early on...
I arrived at the end of the next alley, the man still in pursuit when something obstructed the way, jumping down from a roof and blocking the only way out between me and who ever the man behind me was. The man in front of me held a large machete in his hand, the tip of which he pressed against my throat.
The man behind me finally caught up and even from behind I could sense the cocky smile as he spoke into a walkie-talkie. "We caught the runner. We're bringing him. Over." He walked toward me, kicking me in the back of the leg, making me fall down on my knees when he took out a pair of cheap handcuffs, those you get from second rate sex shops.
The one with the machete in his hand grabbed me by the hair and dragged me back up, toward the car that parked itself next to the entrance into the alleyway. The one behind me, pushed me forward, keeping the nozzle of his SMG on my back.
They shared a few words I didn't understand as we walked forward until two new men jumped down from the roof, one of them a Arab man wearing a duster and camouflage pants while his partner, a black man in track pants and a wife beater blocked the way.
"Stand down, Blackwatch!" The Arab announced, a large handgun pointed at us. While the other held a shotgun.
The one behind me quickly flipped his walkie-talkie on before declaring. "This is Hans, we've got a problem. Meet you at the base."
His partner took grab of me, setting up the blade of his weapon against my throat and holding me as a human shield. "Leave or the man dies right here." He announced.
"Drop the weapon and let the civilian go, he's got nothing to do with this." The Black man declared, literally snarling at them, making me raise a brow regardless of how inappropriate the moment was to be surprised.
"Baptiste, calm down." The other said.
Both groups faced off, waiting for one of them to stand down and drop their weapons. The moment didn't last more than perhaps twenty seconds but it felt much longer as cold sweat ran down my neck. The Arab's eyes roamed around, examining the situation until I saw a glint appear, the rest of his expression remaining calmed and composed.
He moved his hand about and inch and pressed the trigger, the gun kicking back, letting a casing out as hot lead pierced the air and hit the guy behind me in the head. He then moved back to the other and started shooting at him too.
As soon as the grip on me lessened, I threw myself at the ground, determined not to catch return fire. Hans returned fire, spraying the area in front of him. The two others both split up in different directions. After about three seconds, the SMG clip was empty and the gun clicked a reminder to reload. Hans didn't hesitate as he decided to run, throwing the smoking gun to the ground not too far from me.
"Got it!" The black man said, running after him.
I got back up on my feet and looked at the man who had been holding me. He was miraculously still alive, holding his bloodied hand over his eyes and moaning in pain. The Arab walked closer, kicking him upside the head. When he fell back down on his back, he raised his pistol and emptied the rest of the clip into the man's head.
I looked at the bloody mess of brains and blood that painted the concrete and hurled what little I had in my stomach on top of it. Baptiste soon came back and his partner nodded.
"He got away, shifted."
The Arab spat a curse in his native language and then grabbed me by the shoulder. "You're coming with us."

Emily Johnson- chapter 4
The night sky darkened and the wind started to blow across my face. My hair flying with the wind, and there I was. I took one step and looked at the shop I was now facing. Two choices ran through my head. They were: Shall I ask the shopkeeper to help me? or just walk off?. I could hear my stomach rumbling. I hadn't eaten for a whole week. I searched through dustbins and could still not find any food that I thought could be edible. I drank water from the rain. I wondered down the long road and looked at all of the shops. So much food.

I found angels in the snow
I found it, last night.
And it wasn't at the bottom of a pint of lager
nor in the burnt out butt of a cigarette.
It was in my smile, reflected by those smiling around me,
as I tossed my hair, and caught the gaze of many guys
gazing starry eyed at me.
One approached, upon hearing me quote Shakspeare
and asked his friend "Can I keep her?"
to which I replied with sigh and the shake of my head,
as I stepped outside into the snow.
The white flakes were falling softly,
I breathed in toxic smoke.
And you, there on that sad height,
stumbled out into the night.
I forgot how much I loved you.
You forgot that you just thought of me as a friend.
With your arm in mine, we slid home,
plowing a pathway through the snow.
At your door, as I went to search for your keys
I slipped and fell,
rather than laugh, you floated down next to me.
There, we lay, making imprints of angels
without the halos,
and you turned to me and told me
you loved me so,
and now I know
I found it.
It didn't exist between the lines of a book,
nor manifest itself in a comedy sketch.
It wasn't in all my money spent,
or looking pretty when I go out with friends.
Or kissing a boy, even though he will never be you,
or giving up on love, because it will never be true.
I found happiness, somewhere at last, last night,
with snow down the back of my pants,
and frosted fingers swollen and red,
I went to bed no longer longing to have someone there
to share all my adventures with.
I no longer need to find someone like you,
I got you, and that's enough.
Love is love, regardless of how much.

Chapter 13: CalumMature
Going to work was never my favourite thing. They only hired me about a week ago because they thought I showed 'potential' but lately, the only potential I had, was potential to find out more about Elodie. Isabelle had given me hope, even though she told me she wasn't talking to Elodie anymore because of some girl fight that they had. Girls confused me sometimes; sometimes they had fights and started World War 3 and then the next day they were back to being best friends again.
Working at a popular café had its advantages though. Lots of people from school came through and said hi, and it was a good way to get to meet other people. Not to mention the money. I got paid, and that meant I was getting money. Money to buy a car one day and maybe even money to travel to unknown places…. The thought of going somewhere and leaving everyone made my brain dizzy.
I came out of the staff room wearing black pants and a black shirt. That was the dress code uniform that the boss had instructed that I wear. As I opened the door and turned around, I swore. Elodie was sitting in the booth directly across from me, under the window. She was with a guy; a guy who I knew was not her brother because I had seen her with her brothers. He was obviously making her laugh and I was obviously jealous. I shook my head. Yes, I was sure that Elodie had saved me, but I should have been logic and known that there was no way that Elodie was ever going to like me.
I went and stood at the counter, waiting for my manager to finish serving someone so they would tell me what to do. She finished.
"Booth 7 still needs to order, could you take care of that, Calum." She smiled and turned to another couple who stood at the counter. I smiled back because the number seven was my favourite and my lucky number. I stopped smiling when I got to the booth though. Elodie and her black eyed, black haired, black clothed boyfriend smiled up at me and recognition flew over Elodie's face. I smiled, hoping that I didn't look too hopeful, hoping that I didn't look as though I needed her to remember saving me.
"Calum, you work here? Sheesh, I've been here all my life and I haven't gotten a job anywhere." Elodie laughed. She was in a better mood today than the other day when she told me off. But then I remembered. It was Thursday afternoon; she wasn't at school because she was sick. She wasn't sick. "Can I have a cup of English breakfast tea and bacon and eggs please? Dean, what do you want?"
"We have the soup of the day special." I offered. Dean looked at me and shook his head. Then he looked at Elodie and smiled. She seemed to know exactly what to do.
"He'll have the same, please." Something dawned on Elodie and she looked like someone had died. But, for all I knew someone could have already died and I wouldn't know because I wasn't her boyfriend- hell I wasn't even sure if I was her friend at all. "Actually…scratch that, we have to go. See you tomorrow."
She pushed Dean forward out of the booth and pushed him towards the back exit. I wanted to know why he was taking orders from her. Until I saw something silver pressed against Dean's back. Elodie gave me a warning look that said 'don't follow me'. Too bad I was a nosy piece of work.
They exited out the door and I quietly followed. I didn't have to go far- they were standing outside the back, only a couple of steps away from the door. It wasn't necessarily dark outside the front of the café but it sure was dark out here.
"You're one of them?" I could hear the disgust in Dean's gravelly voice. I watched his skin ripple, but before he could hurt her- which I was fully capable of helping Elodie if he chose to lash out on her or-
Elodie interrupted my thoughts when she pulled a knife out of the inside pocket of her leather jacket. I watched in silence as Dean attempted to wriggle out her grip, trying to get as far away from the little knife as possible.
"Ignis…." Elodie hissed. I took Latin with her friend Sam. I shook my head and then, unthinking, I gasped. The knife lit up- exploding into flames. Dean made a noise that I didn't think was humanly possible. But then Elodie slammed the flaming knife into his gut. Dean fell over and Elodie pulled out the still flaming knife. She stepped over Dean's convulsing body and plunged it into his chest, right where his heart would be. When she pulled the knife out, the flames abruptly stopped with no trace of blood dripping from its perfectly clean surface. She sheathed it in her pocket and smiled. Then she opened her phone, and began talking into it.
I didn't understand. I didn't understand how someone who had saved me could kill an innocent guy who she was just on a date with. I stumbled back, tripping on a pile of rubbish that some stupid person had left there. Elodie looked up at the noise and stared at me. Now, she was the one who swore. I didn't have to hide anymore and I was lucky because I wanted to yell at her.
"What the hell, Elodie? First, you save me and then you kill your date? Why would you do that? You can't just kill people; you know it turns people off you. I just watched you kill an innocent man and when I go back in there I'm going to call the police." I screamed. She smirked.
I turned on my heel.
I turned back. I crossed my arms. I tried to look all tough but I knew that she knew that I was scared of her.
"I can explain." She said breathlessly. "But you wouldn't believe me."
"Try me."
And that was how we ended up sitting in one of the booths after I was fired for bad customer service and I made two customers leave the café. That is very bad and now because of the strange girl sitting across from me who saves people and then kills other people- I had lost my job and now would have no money to go places or maybe even buy a car.
"I can….jump through time. The guy you saw me kill was a Time Ender. He could stop time." She was about to continue talking but I held up my hand and pointed at her jacket.
"What the hell is that weird knife thing that lights up into flames?" I asked shakily.
"It's called a fire knife and-
"Wait- do you even remember saving me?" I asked. Her head came up sharply. She swore about three times before banging her hand down on the table- hard.
"Stone warned me about this, it's like a conundrum." She muttered to herself, and then to me- "I haven't saved you yet. Well, you remember it because it happened to you, but I haven't saved you yet. It doesn't make sense and you shouldn't even believe me because I sound so crazy."
"Elodie," I must have sounded so sincere and firm because Elodie looked at me like I was the sun. "You saved me. I was going to drown that day. And you, with your orange bandana pulled me out of the water. You introduced yourself as Elodie, freaked out, left me by the water and disappeared. That's why, in the morning at sport on Wednesday, you were wearing the same bandana and looked exactly the same. I knew I had seen you before but it took me about a day to remember where I actually saw you."
"But it doesn't make sense. I didn't save you on that day. I Jumped to some convention and almost got killed. You know what, I'll save you tomorrow. I'll wear the bandana and-
"You have to have your hair in a ponytail." I said. She laughed and it was a real, honest laugh.
"Ok. Anyway, I have to go. I asked Stone- he's my Double, kind of like my brother from another mother…but from the same mother- to get a couple of his buddies to clean up the mess I made. I have to return the Fire Knife to him."
I still didn't understand everything only the fact that Elodie could jump through time and she was stuck in some massive war between a group of her people who could also jump through time and a group of people who could stop time altogether. Who knows what they could have done to people.
I realised that I had zoned out and Elodie was gone.
But she wasn't just gone.
The memory of Elodie saving me was slowly fading; replaced by a memory of a young man saving me instead.

Abigail Adams to Mary Smith Cranch, 30 Apr. 1797
Springfield April 30 1797
My Dear Sister
I know you will rejoice to hear that we are so far on our journey without meeting any accident my Quincy Friends and Neighbours who accompanied us as far as Westown could tell you that they parted with us in as good Spirits as the peculiar circumstances which preceeded our leaving home would admit, we reachd Williams's and lodgd there, it was fortunate that mr Brisler was with his wife, for in the Night she was taken with one of her sick turns, and was ill all night and part of the next day, worry and fatigue had brought on, what would have taken place without it as soon as the Hot weather commenced, having effectually cleard her stomack, I hope she will proceed without any further inconvenience, the next day we reachd Worcester to dine, and Brookfeild to lodge, how we got to Springfeild to night, is not worth your while to inquire, the Attorney General will not present us I presume, as we caught him on the Road, returning from Northampton Court, but with a Family of thirteen persons it behoves us to get on as fast as we can, particularly when I consider my detention, and how necessary to the Wheels of the Presidents Family Brisler is. My Thoughts are continually like Noahs Dove, returning to the Ark I have left.
whether like that I shall return no more, must be left with that Being, in whose hands my Breath is, I consider myself following where duty leads and trust the Event,
"is Heaven tremendous in its frowns? most sure;
And in its favours formidable too:
It [] here are trials, not rewards;
A call to duty, not discharge from care
And should alarm us, full as much as woes;
Awake us to their cause, and concequence;
O'er our scann'd conduct give a jealous Eye
And make us tremble,"
Such appears to me the situation in which I am placed, enviable no doubt in the Eyes of some, but never envy'd or coveted by me, that I may discharge my part with honour, and give satisfaction is my most earnest wish—
My kindest regards await <
my> my Friends, particularly to
Brother Cranch, Love to my dear Eliza, I hope she will not let her spirits faint or sink
under her bereavement, how consolutary the reflection, that whom the Lord loveth, he
you have the consolation of knowing that no part of your duty was omitted, all that the tenderest Love and kindest affection could do or perform was done by you, for the dear Girl whose loss we mourn
This with her dying Breath she bore witness too,
Let mrs Howard know that Betsy
Stands her journey pretty well
The other Girls are very well
I forgot to mention to mr Porter to attend to the first catipillar webb and take them of as soon as they appear, pray send him word, I see they are beginning upon the Road.

Talking of predictions, yesterday it was announced that a team of Canadians have found a long-lost British ship at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean. It sank during an 1845 Franklin expedition to the North-West Passage. Many searches have been launched in recent years but explorers should, perhaps, have just asked Cormac James.
The author's novel, The Surfacing, is released next week and there is something serendipitous about the narrative. It traces the trail of a ship which, in 1850, set sail to find the lost Franklin vessels in what became one of the great maritime mysteries. This foresight has us wondering if all authors are imbued with clairvoyance.Reuse content
