Admission hyperglycemia has been associated with worse outcomes in ischemic stroke. We hypothesized that hyperglycemia (glucose >8.0 mmol/l) in the hyperacute phase would be independently associated with increased mortality, symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH), and poor functional status at 90 days in stroke patients treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV-tPA).
Using data from the prospective, multicenter Canadian Alteplase for Stroke Effectiveness Study (CASES), the association between admission glucose >8.0 mmol/l and mortality, SICH, and poor functional status at 90 days (modified Rankin Scale >1) was examined. Similar analyses examining glucose as a continuous measure were conducted.
Of 1,098 patients, 296 (27%) had admission hyperglycemia, including 18% of those without diabetes and 70% of those with diabetes. After multivariable logistic regression, admission hyperglycemia was found to be independently associated with increased risk of death (adjusted risk ratio 1.5 [95% CI 1.2–1.9]), SICH (1.69 [0.95–3.00]), and a decreased probability of a favorable outcome at 90 days (0.7 [0.5–0.9]). An incremental risk of death and SICH and unfavorable 90-day outcomes was observed with increasing admission glucose. This observation held true for patients with and without diabetes.
In this cohort of IV-tPA–treated stroke patients, admission hyperglycemia was independently associated with increased risk of death, SICH, and poor functional status at 90 days. Treatment trials continue to be urgently needed to determine whether this is a modifiable risk factor for poor outcome.
Admission hyperglycemia has been associated with a worse functional outcome after ischemic stroke (1–3). Poor functional outcomes and increased mortality have been described in nonthrombolyzed cohorts, and increased rates of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have been found in the few studies in which patients treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV-tPA) were studied exclusively (4–6). Baseline hyperglycemia is found more commonly in patients with preexisting diabetes but is also present in a significant proportion of nondiabetic patients (1). A causal relationship between elevated glucose and worse outcomes has not yet been proven, but current guidelines suggest that excessive hyperglycemia be treated in acute stroke patients (7). Trials of insulin therapy to treat hyperglycemia in acute stroke are ongoing (Glucose Regulation in Acute Stroke Patients [GRASP] trial), and two smaller studies showing equivocal results have been published (8,9).
The bulk of previous studies exploring the role of hyperglycemia in stroke have included only nonthrombolyzed patients. Glucose values were measured beyond the hyperacute (≤3 h) phase, and in several of these studies, ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes were pooled in the analyses (1–3,10). The few studies of admission glucose in tPA-treated ischemic stroke patients have all been relatively small (the largest included 748 patients) (4–6,11–15); some were retrospective (5,14), examined only ICH (5) or short-term (<30 days) outcomes (12,14,15), or included patients treated with IV-tPA beyond 3 h (6,14) or with intra-arterial tPA (11). We sought to determine whether, in a large national cohort of stroke patients treated with standard protocol IV-tPA, elevated admission glucose was associated with worse outcomes, particularly disability, death, and symptomatic ICH (SICH).
Data prospectively collected in the Canadian Alteplase for Stroke Effectiveness Study (CASES) were analyzed (16). This was a national prospective cohort study that led to the full approval of IV-tPA for acute ischemic stroke in Canada. Sixty sites across the country participated over a period of 2.5 years and, where relevant, each center obtained institutional ethics approval for data collection. If patients were incapacitated by their stroke, next of kin provided informed consent. Patients were treated at the discretion of the site neurologist according to Canadian guidelines for intravenous thrombolytic treatment in acute stroke (17).
Baseline demographic data were obtained as were pretreatment basic blood tests and data regarding timing of drug administration and stroke subtype as de-termined by the site investigator using the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project classification. Baseline glucose was determined before IV-tPA administration, either by laboratory blood testing or from capillary blood. The particular method used was determined by the site's own usual practice and was not specifically recorded. The severity of the baseline neurological deficit was assessed with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) before treatment. The NIHSS is a validated 11-domain systematic assessment tool that provides a quantitative measure of stroke-related neurologic deficit, such that a higher score corresponds to a more severe deficit (mild 0–15, severe >15, and maximum 42). The outcome was measured using the 7-point modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 90 days by clinicians who were not necessarily blinded to patients' baseline glucose values. A favorable outcome was defined as an mRS of 0–1.
All patients underwent a follow-up head computed tomography (CT) scan at 24–48 h. Baseline and follow-up CT scans were centrally reviewed by a stroke neurologist and neuroradiologist blinded to clinical information, and the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS)was applied. ASPECTS is a validated 10-point score assessing the extent of infarction in strokes of the middle cerebral artery using noncontrast CT. A lower score suggests a more extensive area of infarction (minimum score 0) (18). SICH was defined as any hemorrhage documented on a follow-up CT scan that was associated with a decline in neurological status within the first 24 h after thrombolytic treatment as judged by the site investigator, who was not blinded to clinical information. Asymptomatic ICH involved hemorrhage on a follow-up CT scan without associated clinical deterioration.
The definition of admission hyperglycemia was prespecified to be serum glucose >8.0 mmol/l in accordance with other studies (10,13,19). As a primary analysis, patients were dichotomized into those with admission hyperglycemia and those without hyperglycemia and compared with regard to baseline characteristics, rate of SICH, functional outcome at 90 days, and death. A secondary analysis examined the association of these outcomes with admission glucose as a continuous measure.
Standard descriptive statistics were used to report the data. Fisher's exact test and Student's t test were used to compare the two groups. Both binomial regression and logistic regression were used to develop models for the three outcomes of interest depending upon use. The large sample size provided sufficient power to perform multivariable analysis. For graphical descriptions, multivariable logistic regression was used to plot adjusted curves. For tabular description of risk ratios (RRs), multivariable binomial regression was used to identify predictors of outcome using a log-link function. The final models were all parsimonious models, meaning that variables that were not significant at P < 0.05 or variables that showed no evidence of confounding were eliminated from the final models. Models were developed by backwards stepwise elimination beginning with the variables listed in Table 1. Analyses were conducted using STATA 8.2 (StataCorp, College Station, TX).
Of 1,135 patients enrolled in CASES, 1,098 had adequate admission glucose data for inclusion in the current study. Of these patients, median age was 73 years, 45% were women, 96% had an anterior circulation stroke, and 16% had a known prior history of diabetes. A glucose value of 8.0 mmol/l corresponded to the 75th percentile and, overall, 296 (27%) patients had admission hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia was present in 70% of those with diabetes and 18% of those without diabetes. Hyperglycemic patients were older; were more likely to be non-Caucasian; were more likely to have atrial fibrillation, hypertension, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, and known diabetes; and were less likely to be current smokers. The greater prevalence of comorbid illness in the hyperglycemic group is probably explained by older age and the higher proportion of diabetes. There were no differences in sex, stroke subtype, or baseline stroke severity between groups (Table 1). No relationship was observed between baseline serum glucose and baseline NIHSS score.
Rates of ICH, 90-day outcomes, and mortality are shown in Table 2. A total of 49 (4.5%) patients had SICH. Among hyperglycemic patients, this proportion was 6.8% compared with 3.6% for nonhyperglycemic patients (P = 0.03), resulting in an unadjusted RR of 1.87 (95% CI 1.07–3.25) for SICH in patients with baseline glucose >8.0 mmol/l (Table 2). Multivariable regression attenuated this relationship somewhat, yielding an adjusted RR of 1.69 (95% CI 0.95–3.00).
Clinical outcomes at 90 days, unadjusted for confounders, are shown in Fig. 1. Only 80 (27.7%) hyperglycemic patients experienced a favorable functional outcome (mRS 0–1) compared with 316 (40%) nonhyperglycemic patients (P = 0.0002). The proportion of patients who were dead at the 3 month follow-up was also significantly higher among patients with admission glucose >8.0 mmol/l (30.8 vs. 18.7%, P < 0.0001). Unadjusted risk ratios for favorable outcome and death among hyperglycemic patients were 0.69 (95% CI 0.56–0.85) and 1.64 (1.31–2.06), respectively.
After multivariable regression, adjusted risk ratios were 0.7 (95% CI 0.5–0.9) for favorable outcome and 1.5 (1.2–1.9) for death. Multivariable analysis showed that independent predictors of 90-day outcome and death were age, baseline NIHSS, baseline ASPECTS, and admission glucose. Each of these had a comparable magnitude of association with outcome. When dichotomized as age >80 years, baseline NIHSS >15, and ASPECTS >7, unadjusted RRs for favorable functional outcome were 0.64 (95% CI 0.52–0.80), 0.40 (0.32–0.48), and 1.53 (1.26–1.86), respectively. The negative association between admission glucose and functional outcome and death persisted even after exclusion of patients with SICH, a known independent predictor of death and disability after thrombolysis (4,20). These relationships were not different for patients with and without diabetes (no evidence of an interaction effect).
No heterogeneity was found with regard to the association between baseline hyperglycemia and a favorable clinical outcome when analyzed by Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project stroke subtype (χ2 test, P = 0.80) or when mild strokes (NIHSS ≤5) and moderate-to-severe strokes were compared (χ2 test, P = 0.29), suggesting a deleterious effect of hyperglycemia on outcome regardless of stroke subtype or severity.
With glucose as a continuous variable, the predicted probability of SICH adjusted for age, atrial fibrillation, onset-to-treatment time, and sex was calculated and represented as a fractional polynomial estimate of best fit (Fig. 2A). An increasing probability of SICH was seen with increasing admission glucose values. Similarly, the predicted probability of death at 90 days according to admission glucose, adjusted for age, baseline NIHSS, ASPECTS, onset-to-treatment time, and sex was calculated and represented using a linear least-squares line of best fit (Fig. 2B). An increasing risk of death was found with increasing baseline glucose. Finally, the predicted probability of a favorable outcome at 90 days, adjusted for age, baseline NIHSS, ASPECTS, congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and diabetes was determined, yielding an inverse relationship between admission glucose levels and the probability of achieving an mRS of 0–1 (Fig. 2C). The predicted probability of a favorable outcome was also determined for only those patients with baseline glucose <8 mmol/l. Even among these nonhyperglycemic patients, a linear decline in the probability of a good outcome was seen with increasing glucose levels.
This study further confirms the relationship between admission hyperglycemia and SICH, death, and poor functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients treated with IV-tPA. Our findings bolster and expand on those of previous studies, the majority of which examined smaller numbers of nonthrombolyzed stroke patients and some of which analyzed hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes together (1–3,10).
Published studies of baseline hyperglycemia in stroke patients treated with thrombolysis have been few, were generally small, and often did not report 3-month outcomes (4,6,12–15). However, all have suggested an increased risk of poor outcome with elevated glucose, despite using different cutoff levels to define hyperglycemia (from 7.7 to 10 mmol/l) (4,6,12–15). One study included 312 tPA-treated patients from the original National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke IV-tPA trial and analyzed these together with 312 placebo-treated patients (4). This study showed that regardless of treatment assignment, as admission glucose level increased, the odds for a favorable outcome progressively decreased and the odds of SICH increased (4). A recent post hoc analysis of 748 patients from the European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study (ECASS-II), a trial of IV-tPA given within 6 h of stroke onset, examined the prognostic value of hyperglycemia at baseline and 24 h (6). Patients were classified into four groups: isolated baseline hyperglycemia, isolated 24-h hyperglycemia, hyperglycemia persisting at both time points, and persistent normoglycemia. Thrombolyzed (n = 384) and nonthrombolyzed (n = 364) patients were analyzed together. Interestingly, isolated baseline hyperglycemia was not found to independently predict poor outcome or ICH. In this study, the strongest predictor of poor outcome, death, and ICH was persistent hyperglycemia at baseline and 24 h, although this observation was only true in patients without known diabetes. The prognostic utility of hyperglycemia exclusively in those patients treated with IV-tPA cannot be determined because this subgroup was not analyzed separately. Two other studies of tPA-treated patients, one with intravenous treatment and the other with intra-arterial treatment, also showed that elevated glucose was an independent predictor of ICH (5,11).
What remains unclear is whether hyperglycemia is merely an epiphenomenon of underlying stroke severity or if it is itself directly harmful to ischemic brain tissue. After adjustment for clinical stroke severity, a dose-response relationship between baseline glucose and unfavorable outcome is still suggested by our results and those of others (1,4,6,10). There is ample animal literature suggesting plausible mechanisms by which glucose may exert a deleterious effect on ischemic brain, including cellular acidosis caused by anaerobic glycolysis, enhanced free radical production, increased blood-brain barrier permeability, impaired mitochondrial function, influx of intracellular Ca2+, and cellular edema (21).
However, noncausal explanations have also been proposed. Baseline hyperglycemia may represent an acute stress response from activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis causing a rise in cortisol and catecholamines and, therefore, may simply be indicative of underlying stroke severity. Furthermore, it may also be a result of injury or irritation of brain areas involved in glucose regulation, a theory supported by the association of hyperglycemia with strokes involving the insula (22). Finally, hyperglycemia may reflect previously undiagnosed diabetes.
The argument for causality is also further mitigated by the equivocal results of trials targeting aggressive glucose-lowering therapy in the acute phase after stroke (8,9). No evidence to date supports the concept that ensuring strict poststroke normoglycemia improves outcome. The UK Glucose Insulin in Stroke Trial (GIST-UK) was both stopped early and underpowered but suggested no difference in clinical outcome between patients randomly assigned to glucose-potassium-insulin infusion to maintain glucose levels at 4–7 mmol/l over the first 24 h and patients given saline without glucose-lowering interventions (9). The lack of benefit may be related to the relatively late initiation of therapy after stroke (median 14 h) and the modest mean reduction in glucose achieved in the treatment arm (0.57 mmol/l).
Our prospective cohort study is the largest yet to report on the effect of admission glucose exclusively in stroke patients treated uniformly with IV-tPA. Our results confirm the notion that poststroke hyperglycemia is a predictor of death, worse functional outcome, and SICH in thrombolyzed patients. This association remains true regardless of stroke subtype or severity and in patients with and without diabetes. We acknowledge that our work has several limitations. First, it is an observational study. Nonetheless, the data were prospectively collected from a large number of representative patients drawn from 60 hospitals across Canada. Second, our results are based on only a single admission glucose value. Contrary to data for acute coronary syndromes arguing that dynamic changes in glucose are not prognostically significant (23), it has recently been suggested that changes in glucose over the first 24 h among stroke patients may provide additional prognostic value (6). However, use of a single baseline glucose value presumably underestimates potential harm, because patients with the highest admission glucose levels would most likely have been treated earlier and more aggressively with glucose-lowering therapies. Also, because thrombolytic treatment is necessarily rapid, a single admission glucose level has greater clinical utility for guiding acute treatment decisions. Third, we did not collect A1C values and so we do not have any measures of chronic dysglycemia. However, in acute coronary syndromes, A1C levels convey little short-term prognostic value with respect to mortality (24). Fourth, the method of blood glucose determination was not uniform, with either capillary blood or laboratory glucose measurements used at different sites. Both methods have been shown to provide comparable results in critically ill patients (25). Fifth, we have no information regarding glycemic management during hospitalization or after discharge. Last, baseline differences between both groups may be potential confounders that cannot be entirely accounted for using statistical adjustments.
Although it remains unclear whether correcting elevated glucose in the acute phase after ischemic stroke is beneficial, it is apparent that admission hyperglycemia rapidly identifies patients at higher risk for poor outcomes in whom glucose levels should be closely monitored.

After Northern Nash persuaded Laney to play its week four matchup on Thursday night rather than Friday because of weather concerns, lightning and rain delayed the start of the second quarter for more than one hour and eventually cancelled the contest after more storms swept through Rocky Mount as both teams headed to the locker room for halftime.
Laney has played back-to-back games on the road, traveling a total of 630 miles and finish their road swing at East Bladen on September 18.
Some of the first half highlights include, Sharod Sidbury jarring the ball loose on third and long to force a Northern Nash turnover on the first drive of the ballgame.
The Knights' second drive ultimately stalled thanks to the efforts of senior defensive end Ryan Daborowski, who hurried the quarterback to force a long down and distance before Eli Boone picked up a sack.
A holding penalty on the next Laney drive created a 3rd and 18 situation, and Travone Greene just missed a pass downfield to Ryan Williams as the Buccaneers punted on its first two drives of the game.
After the 90-minute break, Laney forced another North Nash fumble, but the Bucs were stuffed on fourth and goal from the one-yard line late in the second quarter. The Knights got the board just before halftime on a four-yard touchdown pass as Northern Nash took a 6-0 lead.
Week four high school football schedule
Hoggard (1-2) @ Charlotte Christian
Showing vast improvement on the offensive side over the past two weeks, Hoggard has a tough test tonight as the Vikings travel to the Queen City to face Charlotte Christian. These two teams squared off last season in what could have been the game of the year before weather postponed the contest in Wilmington after halftime.
Hoggard has been able to move the chains all season and finally converted those drives into touchdowns in a 27-26 loss to Pine Forest last week. A late touchdown proved to be the difference, while Tony Allen continues to pound the rock. The junior running back has 325 rushing yards on 46 carries this season. Classmate Rashad Wallace has also been steady in the backfield, with 29 rushes for 151 yards through three games.
Bryant Sasser has been an accurate passer moving the pocket left-to-right, and Keon Bradley made two touchdown receptions in last week's ballgame.
Hoggard's defense has been led by seniors Will Kandare and Omar Jones, who both have three sacks this season.
The kicking game proved to be a valuable commodity last week as Caleb Kuhne connected on 2-of-3 attempts, including a 46 yard field goal, but the kickoff team has surrendered two touchdown returns in three games.
North Brunswick (1-1) @ South Brunswick (2-1)
Coming off the bye week, North Brunswick makes the short trip to Boiling Spring Lakes as the Scorpions take on a much improved South Brunswick football team.
Josh Carter accounted for five touchdowns in last week's 54-26 win over Pender. The Cougars improved to 2-1 overall, while North Brunswick has been steady on both sides of the ball, with a 47-46 point differential through two games.
Friday's matchup also serves as a homecoming for Scorpions' Head Coach Larry Brock, who will return to his alma mater for the first time as a head coach after taking over the job in Leland earlier this year.
Topsail (3-0) at Croatan
Topsail has sprinted out of the gate thanks to a strong running game and face a big test Friday night when the Pirates travel to Croatan. D.J. Montano's status throughout practice was a question mark after the standout running back left last week's game with a lower leg injury.
If Montano is unavailable, look for Drew Gaither, Justin Smith and Grant McCoy to take over the workload. All three running backs have over 100 yards rushing this season. Sophomore quarterback Jacob Floyd also continues to mature under center, completing 13-of-23 pass attempts in three games, with one touchdown and one interception.
West Brunswick (2-1) @ Whiteville
West Brunswick looks to get back in the win column after disappointing week three setback at home to North Myrtle Beach. Hunter Ashburn has found Quinlyn Moore for a touchdown reception in each of the first three games played, but the Trojans have struggled with turnovers.
Junior running back Anthony McCray has also been hampered with injuries, but if West Brunswick can get the run game going early and hold onto the ball, the Trojans are in good position to grab a road win at Whiteville.

The Man
The man killed her. That's all I know. And that's all I'll say. But rest assured, he won't get away with it...
I saw the life leave her eyes and I saw the frightful astonishment of her killer. I saw her drop to the floor. I saw the man's face, and it burned an eternal image of despair and hopelessness into the innermost regions of my mind. I saw the man clearly, but he did not see me. In trial, they found no evidence. There were no other suspects. I suspected no other man. They released him, claiming he was not guilty of the murder. They said that he was not the instigator of her deliberate death. But I knew. I knew — I knew all too well! — I knew it was him. How could the court not trust the power of my eyes, how could they? I was behind glass, not some hallucinogen. They punished me! The treacherous court banished me to a facility for "people like me". But no one is anything like me. I have a plan. They say I have gone mad, crazy, even insane. They think I need to be looked after, like a child. My mind is far beyond that of a mere child. But I have one thing in common with a child — children run away. And that is just a minor part of my plan
Everywhere I go I see him. I remembered his face when the judge told me that he was innocent. I see his face sometimes when a man is infuriated at my facility. I see him in the news, on the faces of foreign radicals, insane killers, and jail inmates. Ha! And they say I am a madman! I hate the man, so much that even I am fearful of how deep my hatred runs. I can feel it constantly running through my veins, cold and shaking, a deep, violent trace of misery that burns my inner soul, eating away at my sanity, a constant reminder of what I must do. It consumes all of my energy, all of my thoughts, all of my life. Nothing compares to the continuous torture that the man has brought upon me.
The time has come, and to end my misery I must end his life. My plot has been meticulously crafted, with every detail rooted in my mind. It would take perfect execution to pull this off without any evidence that I killed the man. I have learned that tonight is his night for the night shift. I will have my chance — my long awaited chance! — my chance for redemption will be on this night.
I had smuggled a screwdriver into my facility a week ago and have stowed it under my mattress. Tonight I grasp it firmly in my hand, adrenaline pumping, as I unscrew the window frame in my dwelling just enough to push my hand through. My accomplice, who I dare not name, is waiting on the other side. He is able to slide the window panes inside, and I place it below my bed. I silently move through the new opening, slowly — very, very slowly — so slowly that my breaths come more frequently than an inch's worth of movement. My partner in crime hands me a knife, my weapon. He insists that he keep the gun, and when I raise my eyebrows at the statement, he noted that the path he would take to the murder site would be a tougher route, and he might need it more than I would. I shrug it off, and we set off on our separate paths.
While I walk, the hatred swells inside of me, flaring up at moments of intense emotion. I walk for half an hour in my black pants and black long sleeve shirt until I start recognizing my surroundings. When I look around I see his face in ordinary pedestrians through the windows in stores, not just in someone doing something wrong. I pass a library, the local mall, the police station, a supermarket, and eventually I end up within 100 yards of the spot. I check my wristwatch. I have 4 minutes until I am supposed to round the corner. My anger starts to grow to an uncontrollable rage. I start to sweat, the knife becoming slick in my hands.
Two minutes. The memories of her, seeming ages ago, but also surprisingly fresh in my mind. This only adds to my extreme anger and deep rage. It takes all of my willpower to stop myself from rapidly turning the corner and facing the man. But my accomplice would be here any minute. I wait — it seems like hours but I know it is only seconds and still I wait — I wait for my lethal collaborator to arrive. The time eats away, and soon I realize that something must have gone wrong. I decide that my window of opportunity is dwindling.
I make up my mind and take action. As I round the corner, I think of her, I think of her murder, I think of her life. That's when something inside me snaps. It's like all the anger and emotion I have ever felt was stored up inside my soul, and as I turn the corner, the floodgates open and I feel no fear. I feel the purest of all emotions. It is as if my mind is filled with this feeling, reaching every nook and cranny of my soul. I can not control this terribly intense emotion so as I turn the corner I lose all sanity, all goodness left in my heart, and I lose all sense of humanity. I become an animal when this pure feeling flows so smoothly throughout my body that I feel nothing else. This emotion is agonizing, violent, extremely powerful fury.
But as I turn the corner I do not see what I expect to see. I see the man, staring me in the eye, with a long machete pointed straight at my chest. But what surprises me the most is the man standing next to him. I know him all too well, and he knows my plan. He is my comrade, my accomplice, my partner in crime. And in his right hand he points the barrel of his gun directly at my face. He smiles, an evil grin, an expression that sends chills down my spine. Next to him, the man stares straight into my soul. I lose all of my adrenaline and the stares of the traitor and the murderer turn my confidence into total, true, complete fear.
That's when I see her. She comes from behind the men, an apparition but at the same time the realest thing I've ever seen. She calls out my name, and her voice shatters my soul and puts it back together all at once, giving me just the boost that I need. I drop my knife and dive out towards my ex-accomplice and knock the gun from his hands. I fall to the ground on top of the weapon. Meanwhile, her voice visibly startles the murderer, causing him to drop to his knees, his head quickly snapping back, and as he drops to the ground lifelessly his machete falls beside him, landing right next to the remaining man, the traitor. The traitor quickly swoops it up and hurls it at my chest with a loud cry and, before I can react, she grabs it out of the air and turns it towards the traitor.
His eyes fill with fear, and what she does next surprises everyone. She hands it back to the man, and just as soon as she appeared, she is gone, seeming to be swept away with the wind. The man lunges towards me to try to knock the gun out of my hands, but fails to recognize where he grabs it. I let go, but it makes no difference. The bullet, now lodged in his chest, instantly kills him. It all happens so fast, and while I stand in the puddle of blood, somehow content, I see the mans face in him.
I look to a nearby window, and what I see startles me. I draw in closer, and what I see questions everything I think I know. I see the man's face in the reflection, and I realize it is mine. It has always been mine. I quickly spin around when I hear a slow dragging sound, and I see myself stand up, looking me in the eye. I stare at myself, and that's when I realize what has really happened. I freeze, with a throbbing in my chest. I know something is wrong inside of me, and as I look towards myself, I feel a deep hatred. Behind him, where the traitor's body and blood should be, there is nothing. I understand it all. I did it. I killed her. The squeezing in my chest gets more intense, and I drop to the ground. My heart feels like it's on fire. I look at myself, and he's smiling at me. While the last traces of life drain out of my soul, he laughs. I killed her.
I killed her.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - June 21, 1983, New Braunfels, Texas New Braunfels Hera\6-Zeitung Tuesday, June 21,1983 9 Court ruling will impact medical plans WASHINGTON (AP) — Striking the latest blow for on-the-job equality of the sexes, the Supreme Court says employers cannot offer male workers family medical plans that don't stack up to those available to female employees. A decision announced by the court Monday does not mean employers are legally obligated to extend the same pregnancy benefits to employees' wives as those extended to women on the payroll. Hut some employers may now come under added pressure to do so. The court said a 1978 federal law, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. prohibits a boss from giving "married male employees a benefit package for their dependents that is less inclusive than the dependency coverage provided to married female employees." Nothing in Hie decision, however, bars employers from limiting pregnancy benefits for employee's wives if. at the same time, they impose the same overall limits on coverage extended to employees' husbands. For example, an employer legally could limit all hospitalization benefits for employee spouses to 50 percent of the total bill and pay all hospital costs for employees That would mean a female employee hospitalized to have a baby would gel twice as much financial help as male employee's wife hopitalized for tile same reason. That's not why John McNulty, a Virginia .shipyard employee, complained that he was the target of sex discrimination. His company 's medical plan limited benefits for pregnant spouses, but featured no similar limits for other conditions for which employees' spouses might require medical attention. McNulty said In* meant his family's total benefit package was not as good as those enjoyed by the families of his female co-workers The Supreme Court agreed, and said that's against the law The ruling could cost employers billons. Report doesn't name killers HGI HUT. lebanon < AP) In a report based on a nine-month investigation, I Lebanon's military prosecutor fails to identify the killers who massa! red hundreds of Palestinians last fall at the Sabra and Chatilla refugee camps Prosecutor Assad Germanos, in a report submitted Monday to President Amin Gemayel, recommended no prosecutions for the time being and said the Israeli army bore legal responsibility for the massacre because its forces surrounded the two south Beirut camps during the Sept. 16-18 slaughter. The report said "armed elements not from the Israeli camp participated'' in the massacre and implied the killers may have been members of the militia of Maj Saad Haddad, a right-wing Christian allied with Israel, based in south lebanon on tile border w ith Israel "Perhaps they (Uie killers) are from Uh* border element or from among those who suffered from Palestinian excesses rn previous years," the report said Germanos said the leadership of Gemayel's Christian Phalange Part) was not responsible for the massacre. An Israeli judicial commission that investigated the massacre last February said Phalange militiamen carried out the killings. It also said Defense Minister Ariel Sharon bore personal responsibility" for allowing Uh* militiamen into the camps Survivors af Un* massacre told reporters at Uh* tune Uh* killers were members of Uh* Phalange nuiiUa CLASSIFIED AD RATES 20' per word for I tim* insertion.

"That was heroic duty," Hotter said "They were a good group of ladies " Those testa cleared the use of the toilet for the shuttle.

5 Rules For Displaying Your Family Pictures In Your Apartment
You absolutely can and should have pictures of your family displayed in your place, but it's important to know the boundaries. Having too many (or not enough) may give the wrong impression, and picture placement is key.
5 rules of displaying pictures of your family in your place.
1. Pictures of babies are always safe- in fact, they're usually a big hit. A well-placed baby picture can definitely stir conversation, such as... "awww that baby is so cute is that your nephew?"
2. Pictures are also a great and super cheap way to decorate your apartment.
3. Don't put pictures of your parents anywhere near your bed. It's just weird.
4. Too many pictures of your family can be a little much, and will send a red flag to anyone you invite over. (It's time to cut the chord. You're a big boy now.)
5. Simply displaying pictures of your family on the refrigerator with magnets is fun, cute, and won't reach overkill. I found some interesting magnets here.

Access: The Shared Dream of Bindbreakers
"Make sure you stay safe in there, Keane." Soren said as he took a seat on the floor of the guest bedroom. "We'll need you when this is over."
"Don't worry about it." Derrick tried to smile at Soren before turning to the young physician holding Nox's hand. "Vilki, speak the words that will get us in. As long as all each of us has a hand on Nox, we should be drawn in alongside you."
Vilki nodded. "Alright." she said, her voice low and thick with worry. She began to whisper as if to herself.
Derrick felt his eyelids begin to droop and motioned for Roland to put a hand on Nox's arm. Roland knelt down beside him, grabbing Nox's left wrist as he did. He soon seemed to be sleeping. Derrick glanced around the room to see Delta and Artorius asleep next to Vilki, each with a hand lain on Nox's right arm. Uther Elhawk was at the foot of the bed, his hands wrapped around Nox's feet.
Before he lost consciousness, he saw Vilki lay her head on the edge of the bed, a tear rolling down her cheek.
When he woke he was lying on a gray plain, the main support members collapsed nearby him.
"Wake up. Wake up!" Derrick jumped to his feet and began shaking Roland. "Wake up, Roland, we got through!"
"What?" Roland mumbled "Where. . .how? The physician got us into Nox's mind? Why are we in this sort of place?"
Derrick shook his head impatiently. "This is Nox's mind. It's the best way our minds can jointly project the state it's in right now. Like the six of us are sharing a dream. Picture a line of people whose heads are connected by rope seeing as one, but being able to move and act independently and-"
"You lost him at jointly projecting, Lord Keane." Uther Elhawk sat up, rubbing his temples. To his left, Vilki sat up and raised her arms, stretching. "The young guardian is not of our science."
"Yeah, but at least people do more than tolerate me." Roland snorted.
"We must be moving forward." Artorius announced. He was already on his feet. "The bindbreaking must be done quickly."
"He is right. We must reach the center of the slave's mind as fast as we can." Delta reached out a hand, and Artorius pulled him to his feet. "Lord Keane, Physician Vilki?"
"Just Vilki is fine." the beauty corrected gently. "We're not in the palace courts."
Derrick and the others got to their feet.
"We'll go straight ahead." Derrick announced.

Reading J.S. Conway's "The Nazi Persecution of the Churches 1933 - 1945," this observation strikes me with particular force:
Joey Fishkin has argued that Hobby Lobby is ultimately about "the politics of recognition," and specifically about recognizing various conservative religious claims. Fishkin neglects the extent to which the Obama administration's decision to fight Hobby Lobby over contraception mandate, and its initial decision to impose it on religious non-profits, is about recognizing certain claims made by liberal secularists, as Sanchez makes clear:
The outrage does make sense, of course, if what one fundamentally cares about—or at least, additionally cares about—is the symbolic speech act embedded in the compulsion itself. In other words, if the purpose of the mandate is not merely to achieve a certain practical result, but to declare the qualms of believers with religious objections so utterly underserving of respect that they may be forced to act against their convictions regardless of whether this makes any real difference to the outcome. And something like that does indeed seem to be lurking just beneath—if not at—the surface of many reactions.
It is the rising political assertion of the "nones," or the religiously unaffiliated, that I find most interesting. America is developing a homegrown anticlerical politics, despite the fact that we've never had an established church. While chasing the mirage of theocracy, social liberals are increasingly embracing a weaponized secularism. This has led to sharp conflicts between right and left, and traditionalists seem to be finding themselves on the losing side of these debates as often as not. Going forward, though, I wonder if weaponized secularism will prove more divisive within the Democratic Party, which must appeal to the emphatically secular and the emphatically religious alike.
Unlike Germany, Britain or France, America has not had an anti-clerical tradition - with all of its noxious hatred - because America has never had a state church.
What we are seeing, however, is the attempt to create - forcibly graft - that tradition into American culture, and it began when George Stephanopoulis lobbed the first question the first Republican debate of 2012 about whether Mitt Romney would make contraception illegal. Here's a post from the debate:
During Saturday's Republican presidential debate in New Hampshire, hosted by ABC, co-moderator George Stephanopoulos bizarrely repeatedly pressed candidate Mitt Romney on whether the former Massachusetts governor believes the U.S. Supreme Court should overturn a 1965 ruling that a constitutional right to privacy bars states from banning contraception.
Romney, befuddled by the off the wall nature of the question on such an issue that is not on any state's legislative agenda, eventually observed that it was a "silly thing" for the ABC co-moderator to ask such an irrelevant question. Stephanopoulos's odd persistence which dragged on the discussion with Romney for more than three and a half minutes inspired a number of boos from the audience before Ron Paul and Rick Santorum were then allowed to weigh in.
So, at the time, everybody else, was going "WTF? Isn't this an issue that died in 1965?"
Two years later, we have a Supreme Court decision on whether private individuals can be forced to subsidize someone else's birth control, i.e., the exact opposite of what Stephanopoulis was implying in his dishonest question that was obviously scripted to "roll-out" propaganda that Joseph Goebbels would have envied.
We simply had no idea how much damage the Obama Left was willing to do to national unity in order to have its "War on Women" and "Emmanuel Goldstein" moment.

St. James
Sequel to "MacCell." A Well-wishers story.
Prologue: Miscalculation
Vriiin. . .vriiiin.
A low moan was heard next to him. "Hey. . .Who's calling you at this time of night?"
Vriiin. . . .vriiin.
"It's five am." Derek reached over picked up his phone, staring at the caller ID in surprise. "Sorry. This is an important call."
"S'fine as long as I can sleep for a bit longer." the young woman next to him murmured.
Derek jumped out of the bed, yanked his pants on, and slipped outside the small bedroom. "Do you know how long it's been, you little-"
"I found him. He said he just got back from doing undercover work again."
"What? Are you serious?"
"Yeah, straight up." was the reply. "Dude, you have no idea how long it took me."
"Hold on a sec." Derek pulled a short-sleeved shirt over his head, then pressed the phone to his ear again. "With your investigation skills, I'm sure it would have taken a while anyway. How did you find him?"
"Actually, he kinda found me." Derek's friend admitted. "He called me out of the blue like, twenty minutes ago. He's down south, near Milanesque. He needs both of us to meet him there. Something's up, and it's really bad."
"Are you nuts?" Derek exclaimed, trying not to speak above a whisper. "There is no way in hell I can go to Milanesque right now!"
"Cassandra'll find you if you don't leave now. Far as I know, she's trying to pinpoint us so she can get us both tails. I booked the flight just now, it's at noon. Meet me downtown in an hour, okay?"
"Jerry, I can't just leave. I know it's stupid, but I gave up on finding him last night. There's no way he can just appear as soon as-"
"What did you do now?" Derek heard laughter on the other end of the line. "You made a classic, didn't you? Who did you spend the night with, huh? That woman you met six months ago?"
Derek hesitated, glancing nervously at the door. "That's not of consequence as far as you're concerned. I'll be there. This better not be a fake lead, Extra."
"You want me to bring proof? I can get it."
"You'll probably just mess that up. Where should we meet?"

Spandow suggested the man be paid what recent "Caucasian" hires had been offered, but was told he should make a substantially lower offer. "He knows everyone on the team, and will of course, know what they earn within days of arriving," Spandow then wrote in an email to his boss, Ryan Bambling. "Moreover, he has 6+ years Oracle experience ahead of them."
The filing alleges that Spandow was rebuked for his complaint and was told to offer the candidate a salary of $50,000, which Spandow described in his email as "nothing short of discriminating against him based on his ethnicity/country of origin." A fair offer, he says, would have been more than $60,000 a year.
When Spandow raised his concerns with sales director Keith Trudeau, he was again rebuked and allegedly told that the salary offer was "good money for an Indian." After more complaints and rebukes, he was fired in mid-December.
Spandow says he believes that Oracle has made a practice of underpaying Indian employees and in is in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and that his firing was illegal retaliation for his complaints.
Yes, Silicon Valley discriminates
Silicon Valley thinks of itself as the cutting edge of more than just technology; it fancies itself as a force for social change. But in an era when the United States has elected and re-elected an African-American president, only one in 18 leaders of technology firms are black or Latino, says Laura Weidman Powers, executive director of Code2040, a nonprofit group that is working to open the doors in Silicon Valley for black and Latino engineers.
When Catherine Bracy, who ran the President Barack Obama campaign's Silicon Valley tech team in 2012, looked at who is getting venture money to start tech companies, she found that in 2010 (the most recent year stats are available) less than 1 percent of founders were African-American and 3 percent of all founding teams were all female.
As to the status of women, high-level and rank-and-file IT staffers are still much more likely to be male, and that probably won't change any time soon. Women comprise only about 15 percent of students working for a computer science degree in the United States, although they represent more than half of the overall university population, according to statistics compiled by the National Science Foundation in 2010.
What's more, women who work in IT are less likely to have the highest-paying positions. "What we have is a position gap, not a pay gap," says Tom Silver, senior vice president of Dice, a large job board for tech workers. In a survey of Dice users that garnered 15,000 responses, the company calculates that "average salaries are equal for male and female tech pros, provided we're comparing equal levels of experience and education and parallel job titles."
When it comes to importing lower-paid foreign tech workers under the H-1B visa program, Oracle is no slouch. In 2012, the feds approved 481 requests by Oracle to bring in foreign workers under that program, according to an analysis by Computerworld, an InfoWorld sister publication. Many of those workers are paid less than the prevailing wage, and as I've argued, they are used to hold down salaries for the workforce as a whole.
Obviously, there are many well-paid people from India working in Silicon Valley. It's also possible that Spandow has an agenda and a history that belies his complaint. But given the indisputable facts of discrimination in Silicon Valley, his charges sadly have the ring of truth.

[nggallery id=hudson_mohawke_5_28_14]
The month-long series of concerts and lectures presented by Red Bull Music Academy came to a bombastic climax last night at Webster Hall. The prolific and generally obscure electronic producer Hudson Mohawke headlined the show with a handful of surprise guest rappers and vocalists in support of his forthcoming record on Warp Records.
Commencing the night was a 90-minute DJ set by the Spainish producer Mwëslee, whose original material is closely aligned with Hudson Mohawke's angular, rampant productions. This live set though was calm, cold and calculated. Shifting slyly through disparate genres, the last part of his set was sustained by protracted synths and airy string textures, like the end credit score of a very dark, very somber film.
The New York-based rapper/producer Le1f followed Mwëslee shortly after. Drastically shifting moods, Le1f laid dystopian whizzes and whirs on his original beats, spitting ferocious-sounding but often muffled verses in between expertly executed choreography. The last few moments of his second number were spent twerking sternly and unapologetically for the crowd, to which he followed up with, "Sorry, dudes." Le1f's set, though brief and slightly bewildering, was evocative and well-received, turning a large number of HudMo fans on to the up-and-coming rapper. Le1f concluded his set with the clamorous, body-invading number Wut, joined by two synchronized backup dancers.
Hudson Mohawke began his set with serene, blue-toned noises that finally proliferated as his "Peaches and Guacamole RMX" of Björk's "Virus." Soon, the crowd's excitement could hardly be contained as he performed tracks from the production duo TNGHT, like Higher Ground. HudMo's first guest, Travis Scott, garnered the most amount of crowd response, imploring the audience to crowd surf and lose their shit. He ended the set by climbing on top of HudMo's table of gear, ripping off his t-shirt, then jumping headfirst into the crowd.
Bodega Bamz emerged right after Scott. His performance was slightly less electric, but maintained that sense of dynamic excitement. The last guest artist was an unprecedented curve ball: the English transgender artist Antony Hegarty of Antony and the Johnsons and Hercules and Love Affair notoriety. This collaborative performance was the most disarming of the night, but not necessarily the most effective or organic. Following Antony's appearance, HudMo returned to noisy, uproarious bangers with tracks like Cbat, Thunder Bay and a remix of Duck Sauce's NRG.

These sleeved baby bibs by Bumpkins make for a hassle free clean-up even on spaghetti night! A must have for our messy babies and toddlers - the long sleeves protect clothing and the catch-all pocket help protect the lap and floor. Tie closure to the back keeps a wiggly one securely covered.
- Made of easy to wipe waterproof fabric
- Stain and odor resistant
- Recommended for ages 6-24 months
- Free of: Lead, PVC, BPA, phthalates and vinyl
- Measures 13.5" across chest, 12.5" from neck down and 32" cuff to cuff
- Great to use during toddler art projects!
Washing Instructions: Machine or hand wash with any detergent and hang to dry
This is the best bib ever! After having to change my son's clothes after every meal and fight stains on the collar and sleeves, I finally splurged on this bib -- fantastic! It keeps the mess off his clothes, and wipes up so easily. Once a week I toss it in the wash and it comes out looking like new.
Loved this so much I'm back for a second one to rotate! Best bib I've used. Washes easily in the sink or the washer.
I love this bib! It fits both my 9 month old and my 2 year old great! And the 2 year old hasn't figured out how to get out of it yet. Unlike the bibs I had before the trim around the bib is not fabric so when you wash it in the sink it doesn't get smelly! I bought 8 of these for my girls so that I could just wash bibs once a week but because of their washablity in the sink I could have gotten away with 1 or 2 each. So I'll probably give the others as gifts! These are worth every penny every mom should have one!
I absolutely love Bumkins bibs. I bought one on a whim, and I swear I have never turned back! They store great, the wash wonderfully, and they are just too cute. Bumkins has prints/colors for every child, they even have Dr. Seuss! Bumkins not only has the #1 Superbib, but the Jr. bib and the Starter bib. I have 3 in my daughters room and at least one is used everyday. I am a proud owner of Bumkins products and I will never turn back!!
I love these bibs. I had before these bibs about 15 bibs in my house. Now I only have 4 Bumkins bibs. It saves so much space. They are so easy to use. Plus when we go out I can go to the restaurant bathroom and wash it and it is ready to use next time. They are also PVC, Phthalates and BPA free. A big thumbs up!!

Loss of GSPT2 (show GSPT2 Antibodies) and/or MAGED1 function may contribute to the intellectual disability.
The ectopic subcellular localization of NRAGE mediated nuclear translocation of beta-catenin (show CTNNB1 Antibodies).
High NRAGE expression is associated with esophageal carcinomas.
MAGE-D1 plays important roles in the central nervous system in both developmental and adult stages.
Univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that MAGED1 expression was an independent prognostic factor in colorectal carcinoma
NRAGE may participate in the formation of radioresistance of TE13R120 cells by changing its subcellular localization, but its relationship with cell apoptosis has not been confirmed.
we establish the roles for Dlxin-1, one as an anti-tumorigenic and anti-invasive protein in high-grade gliomas and the other as an inducer of differentiation of glioma stem cells.
Data report that NRAGE, (show NFKB1 Antibodies) via the same XIAP- (show AMH Antibodies)Tak1-Tab1 complex, (show CDKN2D Antibodies) is required for the phosphorylation of IKK -alpha/beta and subsequent transcriptional activation of the p65 subunit of NF-kappaB.
A RING finger protein (show TRIM31 Antibodies) Praja1 (show PJA1 Antibodies) regulates Dlx5 (show DLX5 Antibodies)-dependent transcription through its ubiquitin ligase activity for the Dlx/Msx-interacting MAGE (show MAGEB10 Antibodies)/Necdin (show NDN Antibodies) family protein, Dlxin-1.
hNRAGE arrests cell growth through a p53 (show TP53 Antibodies) dependent pathway. hNRAGE also increases the p53 (show TP53 Antibodies) protein level as well as its phosphorylation (Ser392).
MAGED1 as a novel regulator of osteoblastogenesis, osteoclastogenesis, and bone remodeling in a mouse model
Maged1 deficiency prevented the interaction of Maged1 with cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB).
NRAGE is a potent regulator of proliferation and odontoblastic differentiation of mouse dental pulp cells, which might be via the NF-kappaB (show NFKB1 Antibodies) signalling pathway.
Show Ror2 (show ROR2 Antibodies) expression is higher in highly metastatic cell line than in low metastatic variant cell line. Our data show that Ror2 (show ROR2 Antibodies) is a potential factor in the tumorigenesis and metastasis in a Src (show SRC Antibodies)-dependent manner that is negatively regulated by NRAGE.
We conclude that Maged1 is required for OT processing or stability. A decrease in mature OT levels in Maged1 mutants affects social interactions and possibly other behavioral processes
Maged1 is involved in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. Mice deficient in Maged1 protein had decreased bone mineral density (BMD (show BEST1 Antibodies))
the present findings suggest a novel role for MAGE-D1 in depressive behaviors: modulating SERT (show SLC6A4 Antibodies) ubiquitylation.
XIAP (show XIAP Antibodies)-TAB1 (show TAB1 Antibodies)-TAK1 (show NR2C2 Antibodies) complex is dependent on NRAGE for IKK-alpha (show CHUK Antibodies)/beta phosphorylation and NF-kappaB (show NFKB1 Antibodies) activation.
MAGED1 binds to nuclear receptor RORalpha to bring about positive and negative effects on core clock genes of Bmal1 (show ARNTL Antibodies), Rev-erbalpha (show NR1D1 Antibodies) and E4bp4 (show NFIL3 Antibodies) expression through the Rev-Erbalpha (show NR1D1 Antibodies)/ROR responsive elements (RORE).
NRAGE induces NF-kappaB (show NFKB1 Antibodies) activation and MIF (show MIF Antibodies) expression in P19 (show CDKN2D Antibodies) cells
This gene is a member of the melanoma antigen gene (MAGE) family. Most of the genes of this family encode tumor specific antigens that are not expressed in normal adult tissues except testis. Although the protein encoded by this gene shares strong homology with members of the MAGE family, it is expressed in almost all normal adult tissues. This gene has been demonstrated to be involved in the p75 neurotrophin receptor mediated programmed cell death pathway. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.

If that doesn't work, I'm going to write a new taskdef that start a new compiler instance for each java file. This is a huge waste of resources, but it might solve the problem. I mean, that behavior is a real blow. It makes Ant useless for my (presumable very common) purpose. Ingmar
