Hansen's Vision, Smeelink Optical join forces, add lab
Wait for new corrective lens to be significantly reduced once lab is completed
GREENVILLE — In today's society, quick production is demanded and fast results are expected. Optical care is no exception.
For patients of Smeelink Optical and Hansen's Vision Center, who recently merged and have renamed themselves Eye Care One, the wait for new lens will be considerably shorter once the new laboratory is constructed.
As of Sept. 24, Tim Westra's Smeelink Optical and Rocky Hansen's Hansen Vision Center have partnered together and will continue operation as Eye Care One at 307 S. Franklin St. in Greenville. Part of the building is currently under construction for the addition of a corrective lens laboratory, which, according to Eye Care One manager Cindy Hansen, will give the business the ability to do more orders in-house and cut down the wait for new lens substantially.
"We'll now be able to finish orders within an hour or the same day as oppose to waiting six to 10 days," Hansen said.
The lab is expected to be finished next month.
Most orders can be completed quickly, however, insurances may require specific labs other than Eye Care One's,, Hansen said.
Westra said he is just as excited for the new lab, which neither Smeelink nor Hansen have had before, as he is working with Rocky Hansen and his staff.
"I think the world of him and have lots of respect for him," Westra said about Hansen. "It was a great opportunity to merge businesses together and I'm thrilled with the prospect of doing something with Rocky.
"By us putting these two businesses together and rebranding it, and with the size of Rocky's facility, we were able to put in a new lab, which helps differentiate ourselves from competitors," Westra added.
For Dr. Hansen, the merger has gone smoothly and Eye Care One clients will soon see the benefits, as well.
"Tim needed more space and we knew it was a mutual benefit for the both of us because I had the space available (for a new lab)," Dr. Hansen said. "It's going to be nice because, for example, when a child breaks his or her glasses, parents won't have to wait a week for new ones; they could be ready that day."
Smeelink Optical, formerly Kent Optical, has been in the Greenville market since 1993 and in Grand Rapids since 1945, according to Westra. Hansen has been practicing for 34 years in Greenville. He joined Dr. Stuart L. Anderson's optometric practice in Greenville in 1978 after graduating from the Illinois College of Optometry in Chicago. He relocated in 2007 to his newly built office at the present location of 307 S. Franklin Street, next to the U.S. Post Office.
"Tim has been an extreme professional and gentleman to work with in this process," Hansen said about Westra. "I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with in this optician practice."
Eye Care One is open 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., Mondays and Thursdays, and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. During the winter, Eye Care One is open on Saturdays, as well, from 8 a.m. to noon.

I have been having these crazy dreams wher I am either married, getting married, or pragnant! I think its because everyone i know is getting married or just got married and everyone is asking me when i'm getting married!
They dont seem to understand I dont ever what to get married!!!!
I think the one dream that stands out the most is when i was pragnant. i was trying to take a nap, but my boobs were so sore i had to be careful. in the dream i was falling asleep and i rolled onto my stomach and my boobies!! the pain was so intense i woke up for real!! I was in pain in real life!
I asked some mommies in my life about being pragnant and if they had pain like that. they all told me yes! That dream freaked me right the hell out!!!

Just won the bidding on a (what looks) clean and functioning PS Olt Model 66.
I'm always paranoid about eBay as I think I'm a victim of a shill bidder who's just jacking up the price but that's neither here nor there. I just wanted the call. I'm excited to check it out. Not sure if it's gonna be a shelf call or on my lanyard. Depends how it sounds when I use it I guess. My hunting partner has one of the old, old D2s. It's actually just labeled with PS Olt, Peckin, Ills, and the trade mark number. Nice call. He uses it every trip. Anyhow, just wanted to brag a little bit.

Miranda Lambert Proud to Represent Country at Grammys
With three nominations, Miranda Lambert is gearing up for this year's Grammy Awards, where she is scheduled to perform on the live broadcast. While she may be suffering from a few nerves, the sassy songstress will showcase why she is up for several gramophone trophies when she takes the stage in front of some of music's top stars.
"I'm really excited about performing on the Grammys. It's my first time," Miranda tells The Boot. "It's not just country. It's all of American music put together. I feel so proud to be there because I am representing country, and I just want to do it justice. I want people to know that we're cool! [laughs]"
Miranda is nominated for Female Country Vocal Performance for 'The House That Built Me,' Country Collaboration with Vocals for 'Bad Angel' with Dierks Bentley and Jamey Johnson and Country Album for 'Revolution.' Her No. 1 hit, 'The House That Built Me,' written by Tom Douglas and Allen Shamblin, may also take home two more awards for Best Country Song and the all-genre Song of the Year.
The country superstar recognizes how prestigious the Grammy Awards show is, and how important it is for all involved. "I'm glad that I get to be a part of all this," Miranda told MTV after her performance on the 'Grammy Nominations Concert Live! – Countdown to Music's Biggest Night.' "Grammys are cool because it's one room and all these artists and one night to celebrate all kinds of music, and for the people in the industry to acknowledge the talent in the room. It's so cool to be in that room and feel that energy. It's just crazy, because music is what drives us all."
Lady Antebellum, nominated for an impressive six Grammys, are also scheduled to perform live on the show, while Miranda's fiancé, Blake Shelton, and pal Dierks Bentley will present.
Meanwhile, Miranda is in Nashville to celebrate the recent platinum certification (one-million albums sold) of her latest album, 'Revolution.' She celebrated at her record label, Sony Music Nashville, on Thursday and will be the guest-of-honor at a special party tonight in Music City, surrounded by industry friends.
The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards telecast will air live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles February 13 from 8:00 PM – 11:30 PM (ET/PT) on CBS.

Why legalize?
Last Updated on Wednesday, 4 June 2014 10:15
Written by theglasshousetx

Why do we care about marijuana legalization?
Many of us are ready to see marijuana legalized for recreational use – especially after hearing about Colorado's success and drooling over innovations like cannabis coffee (wake and bake!). While this has been an extremely active time for marijuana legislation, it's been mostly medically-inclined. It might be cliché, but it's important to remember that Rome really wasn't built in a day.
Last week, the United States House of Representatives voted to let the states decide their own medical marijuana laws, prohibiting the feds from interfering with state legislation. The bill hasn't hit the Senate yet, so don't hold your breath (unless you're trying to get higher) – but if a Republican-dominated house can vote it through, it's looking good.
So far, twenty-two states and Washington, D.C. have legalized cannabis for medical uses. We've seen a lot of action in the past month, even:
- Last week, Minnesota became the 22nd state to legalize it for medical purposes, and has some of the strictest laws the states have seen.
- In South Carolina, Governor Nikki Haley signed a bill Tuesday to allow doctors to prescribe a non-psychoactive oil form of cannabis to children with severe epilepsy.
- In Florida, similar to South Carolina, a bill passed in May to allow doctors to prescribe a non-psychoactive form of cannabis to patients with severe epilepsy.
- And, as we discussed, the New York State Senate will vote on a proposal to approve medical marijuana as soon as this month.
It's easy for people with no medical need to whine about how marijuana is safer than alcohol, not a lethal drug, could kick start the economy, etc. – we're as guilty of complaining as anyone. But right now, our voices are needed in support of legalization for patients suffering from a number of chronic illnesses, living in constant pain. And for minorities being targeted and jailed for simple possession. And for a failing American drug war that is, as is so well-put by High Times, "diverting the time of police, attorneys, judges, and corrections officials away from violent crime, the sexual abuse of children, and terrorism." We need to first raise our voices for those who can't do it themselves.
And that's why we want to legalize.

2015 Grammy Awards Awkward Red Carpet Moments [VIDEOS]
Poor Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic. They both faced some awkward moments while talking to -- or attempting to, anyway -- celebrities on the 2015 Grammy Awards red carpet.
Poor Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic. They both faced some awkward moments while talking to -- or attempting to, anyway -- celebrities on the 2015 Grammy Awards red carpet.
A clip of Nicki Minaj performing in her high school drama class has surfaced and Minaj gets so caught up in the moment of acting her teacher had to...
It's Tuesday, so that means we tell you about the NEW movies and music available in stores and online.
Aretha Franklin is undoubtedly the Queen of Soul, a living legend, a true vocal talent. So it only made sense that she was asked her opinion of the current crop of pop girls during her interview with the Wall Street Journal. Her answers for some (Adele, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys) were positive, fair judgments. Her reaction to others, however -- not so kind.
Have you ever wondered how your parents or grandparents might to react to Nicki Minaj's racy music video for 'Anaconda?' Well, now you don't have to. Kind of.
Beyonce has released a music video for the 'Flawless' remix featuring Nicki Minaj! The video features Beyonce's live performance of 'Flawless' in Paris, France - the last stop of the On the Run Tour with husband Jay Z. The concert took place on Sept. 12.
It seems like every pop star has a memoir, biography or autobiography these days.
It wasn't that long ago a talented singer, songwriter or musician played in every bar, joint, dive and street corner they could - while simultaneously shopping their demo to every record label on the planet.
PopCrush Mini-Mix 27 features remixed tracks from Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Sam Smith and more. Listen here!
The ladies are shaking and banging it all the way to the top of the charts!
Nicki Minaj just moved up the release date of her new album 'The Pinkprint.'
If Nicki Minaj's twerktastic 'Anaconda' video wasn't enough to break the internet, this might do it. Ellen DeGeneres parodied the iconic visual -- and it's absolutely amazing.

Banana Custard
Baking this custard in a bain-marie (water bath) ensures that it remains light and creamy. From the book "Jamaican Cooking," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Macmillan).
- Servings: 8
Source: Mad Hungry, March 2011
- 6 ripe bananas
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- 3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 3 cups milk
- 5 tablespoons sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup plain bread crumbs
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, peel and mash the bananas and mix with the lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon of the nutmeg.
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk and sugar. In a small bowl, blend the eggs and vanilla together, then combine with the banana mixture and milk mixture. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the buttered baking pan. Pour the custard into a 9 x 13 x 2-inch ovenproof dish.
Sprinkle on the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg. Place the pan into a larger pan that is filled with warm water, 1/2 inch up the side. Bake for 1 hour or until the custard is set.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
These days, Chandler's about as close as the Valley comes to having its own "Chinatown," and we mean that term broadly, in the most Pan-Asian way possible. Not only can Chandler boast of having Lee Lee Oriental Supermarket, Restaurant Cyclo, Swaddee Thai, and Lotus Asian Cafe and Grill, but the diamond in its culinary crown is C-Fu Gourmet, where you can enjoy dim sum that's as good as any you'll get in, say, Monterey Park, California (known as Cali's "Little Taipei"). Dim sum is Cantonese for "heart's delight." True to that name, at C-Fu, as in every other dim sum house, a team of waiters and waitresses circles through the restaurant's many tables with carts and trays filled with myriad traditional offerings such as pork dumplings, sugar cane shrimp, barbecued pork buns, shrimp rice noodle rolls, mango pudding, egg custard tarts, and on and on. One obvious sign that C-Fu offers the real deal: the overflow of Asian customers at this immense establishment, something rarely seen anywhere else in the Valley, save perhaps at Lee Lee. Dim sum is served daily from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and though C-Fu is also known for its seafood menu, it's the dim sum that hastens our return.
The coffee at Lux is superb, but that's not what keeps the place packed. Instead, it's the super-cool vibe you find in the patrons and the decor. Both are downtown chic, looking straight out of New York or San Francisco, rather than central Phoenix. But no, here they are, the intelligentsia of Phoenix -- city council people canoodling with artists, architects hanging with academics -- thinking big thoughts and making big plans on the hip, low white vinyl chairs. There are some out there who have started boycotting Lux, saying the snooty staff is a buzz kill. It's true, we've felt the chill from behind the counter. But we figure it's just cuz the folks at Lux are so much cooler than we are. And we're willing to live with that, in exchange for a really good latte.
Readers' Choice: Starbucks
Sportsman's is the largest volume, single location, independent wine retailer in the state's history, which doesn't begin to tell the story. The 20 staff people have a combined 250 years' experience with the sauce, and that includes two certified wine specialists and three certified sommeliers. This might explain why Bon Appètit magazine selected Sportsman's as one of the top 50 wine shops in America. Michael Fine added Arizona's first wine bar to the retail operation in 1993, which became a runaway hit with everyone from Tesseract moms to singles looking to avoid the obviousness of the meet market. This winter Michael will open up a second shop on the west side at Arrowhead Ranch.
We can't pronounce most of the names on the shelves of this little central Phoenix market, but we know it's the place we go when we want the most delicious lemon soup we've ever had. Or the freshest pita, or tastiest kebabs and tandoori chicken salad. The Middle Eastern Bakery, which has been around for years and, lucky for us, has endured recent face-lifts, has a wide selection of spices and hard-to-find items like Turkish coffee. We keep coming back for the rice pudding -- and vowing that one of these days, we'll pick up one of the cookbooks for sale and put all those items on the shelves to good use. Until then, we'll take home some hummus.
As that sage philosopher Butt-head once remarked to his pal Beavis, "Variety is the spice of life, dillweed!" We couldn't agree more. Maybe that's why we think Lee Lee Oriental Supermarket is one of the coolest places on Earth. The 52,000-square-foot bazaar includes delicacies from all over the planet, and you could literally spend a lifetime just checking out all the funky items offered. There are beers from Thailand, China, Singapore and Japan; a selection of ice creams you'll never find in Fry's, such as Chinese-style, lychee-nut flavored, and taro (purple yam) ice cream from the Philippines; a butcher's section featuring oxtail and pork uterus; a fish department that offers live catfish and golden carp, as well as fresh skate wings and baby octopus; and a produce aisle with tamarind from Thailand, tiny Indian eggplants, and Korean melons, to name but a few. Beavis and Butt-head, however, would probably enjoy the hot deer jerky and the prepared squid balls best. "Heh-heh, he said balls . . ."
Here's a little-known fact: Japan has the coolest convenience stores in the world. Shelves brimming with colorful goods in irresistible packaging -- whimsical bags of candy in flavors like peach, yogurt and soda pop, a mind-boggling array of canned iced teas and energy drinks, fancy bottles of sake, pastel bottles of shampoo, and all the ingredients you'd need to make comfort foods like yakisoba (noodles) or tonkatsu (pork cutlet) -- they make shopping for necessities into a full-blown adventure.
Although we'll probably never stop wishing that Phoenix 7-Elevens were more like their Japanese counterparts, we're quite satisfied with Fujiya's Tokyo oasis in Tempe. It's not just the place to get our fix of ultra-minty, caffeinated Black Black chewing gum, squishy white bread in rectangular loaves, or mochi-covered ice cream. Around noontime, it's also a pit stop for freshly made -- and affordable -- sushi and boxed lunches. To scary mini-market nachos and withered hot dogs, we say, "Never again!"

Halloween Vinyl Projects and an Old School Trick or TreatPin It
Portions of this Silhouette Vinyl post have been previously published on Crafts Unleashed. Craft Supplies have been provided by Consumer Crafts. Without these supplies, these project ideas and craft ideas would not be possible, so THANK YOU to our sponsors!
- Gold Vinyl
- Silhouette Machine
- Cut Files (Pumpkins, Halloween "tags" and Halloween Banners)
- Various Candles
- Canvas Bunting and Sharpie Marker (or black paint)
- Beat Up Metal Tray (Check your local thrift store!)
- Orange Twinkle Lights
PROJECT #1 -- Gold Vinyl CandlesThe first project I wanted to create was a simple update to basic creamy white candles. They already have a "harvest/fall" color to them, so the addition of gold vinyl decals made them perfectly Halloweeny! I used THIS Silhouette cut file (99 cents) for the three designs as well as THESE darling pumpkins (also 99 cents). You will see them pop up over and over again in this vignette!
Once you have your silhouette cut out the designs, it is simply a matter of PEEL and STICK.
PROJECT #2 - Gold and Black Halloween BannerThe second project is a play off a previous project you have seen here at Crafts Unleashed (Remember this canvas banner??) I simply colored in one side of the banner with a giant sharpie marker and added a few more of my gold vinyl "stickers". (Get the banner cut files HERE).
My favorite part of this project?
The black and white striped side reflects off the back of the mirror for added interest -- fun, eh?
PROJECT #3 - Jack-O-Lantern Metal TrayHands down, the easiest project of the bunch was this little "Jack-O-Lantern" Tray. I simply got a beat up old metal tray for pennies at the thrift store, gave it a coat of creamy white spray paint and added a gold vinyl "face". Don't own a silhouette machine? No problem!! You could ABSOLUTELY cut out fun Jack-O-Lantern faces out of vinyl with basic scissors. Wouldn't a whole display of trays with unique faces be fun??
The cherry on top of the projects?
Light 'em up baby!
I added three strands of Halloween (orange!) twinkle lights, hiding the lightbulbs as much as possible so the effect was more of a "glow" that individual light bursts. The first strand hides behind the candles and back of the dresser, while two other strands are stuffed into drawers cracked open for a bit of a creepy "something is going to pop out of the drawer" look.
I got a little carried away when searching for fun Halloween cut files and stumbled upon an old Halloween poem (the precursor to the more pedestrian "trick-or-treat"). I took a portion of the poem, cut it on my Silhouette Cameo and hand placed the letters on my office chalkboard. Why didn't I use transfer paper?? I wanted the look to be a little "off", almost like a ransom letter cut from newspaper letters. You see -- it is a bit of a "threat":
Better BewareBetter not find your Larder Bare;Of Candy Apples and Hickory Nuts& Gingerbread in Generous Cuts
In other words....TRICK OR TREAT!!

Salt Lake City police want the public's help finding the man suspected of robbing a Walgreens pharmacy.
Police released photos and a description of the masked suspect on Monday afternoon, hoping someone can identify him from the Feb. 19 robbery. About 11:30 p.m. that day, he is suspected of jumping the counter at the 909 E. 2100 South Walgreens and demanding Oxycontin, according to the police.
He received an unknown amount of the pain reliever, then left. The police do not know in which direction he left.
Investigators describe the suspect as a white man who is 20 to 30 years old, with a slim build, a light complexion and light reddish facial hair. He was wearing a black jacket, black pants, a black hat, mask and gloves.

The K Factor: Guess Who's Styling Simon Cowell?
Posted Wednesday January 2, 2013 10:47 PM GMT
Photo Credit: Getty Images
Simon Cowell is always looking for new ways to boost ratings, and now he's considering a special addition to his UK "X Factor" program.
According to an insider, the media mogul is in talks with Kate Moss to be the show's stylist, and help rockstar hopefuls look their best. "Kate could give the contestants advice and ideas on how they want to look and also how to look after themselves and still look great in the years ahead."
It sounds like Cowell is pretty sold on the whole idea, so if Kate declines the gig he'll likely find another high-profile poser to sign on.

Don't have one, but have been considering the Bulldog for a while. Most of the information I've found on them point to a decent value.
The new ones I've handled are well built but rough, er, less refined than other makers.
IF I were to buy one, it would be in a caliber that wasn't available from Ruger, like their .44 Special or a .22 Magnum Pathfinder.

The following is a reply I got back from Charter Arms. Seems they are willing to stand behind their products.
"Charter Arms has a lifetime warranty on their guns. We take care of all costs. With this warranty in place we must stand behind our guns to the fullest. If the quality was not excellent that type of warranty would put us out of business! We have less than ½ of a percent of guns that are returned!! The ones that are returned are fixed and out of our factory in 5 days!! You can feel confident in buying a Charter Arms revolver! We are 100% American made. If you have any questions feel free to contact us again!"

I already have a 44 Special revolver I love (Rossi 720) but if I was looking for one, the newer versions look pretty good. Haven't shot one in a few years, but aside from some mechanical issues with the older ones, they worked fine. Ya gotta love a 44 Special!
If this was heaven, Smith & Wesson would bring back the 696. My gun pusher has one, and I told him that when he dies, I'm stealing it while his son is at the funeral.
If the Senate needs an expert to speak at the hearings on meddling in another countrys elections, they should subpoena Barack Obama. twitter satirist @weknowwhatsbest
I have no knowledge of the new ones. I owned a couple back in the 70s. My advice is to buy something else. The ones I owned had a life span of about 200 wadcutters, then they became a POS. My revolver money has gone to Ruger and Smith since. Since I am a little slow to learn, it took me two to catch on.

I purchased a 2.5" bulldog pug in 44 special back in December. I bought it primarily for a CCW. Initially all my shots were grouping to the left with any ammo I tried. I called Charter and told them what it was doing and they emailed me a prepaid shipping label to send it to them for adjustment. I got my gun returned within a week and they sent a test target with all the ammo info and range report. They ended up tightening the barrel a minute amount and that cured the problem, not 100 % but it is acceptable to me for what I want it to do. It is a little on the rough side and the trigger pull is a bit stiff, but after shooting it, it has smoothed out some and I expect it to smooth out more. If I can locate a 2.5 or 3" S&W 44 Special, and if I have the money to do so I will prolly sell the charter and buy the Smith or trade it in. It is a sturdy gun and does what I want it to do, but it aint the purdiest gun in the world. Dan
Charter Arms does back their guns 100%, the adjustment didn't cost me a thing, just my time in taking it to the UPS Store.

so does that mean marlin/remington is going out of business soon cause just about every rifle they make needs to be sent back.Originally Posted by thetoad64
Seems everyone has their own opinion so I have mine. I think they are junk compared to S&W and Ruger.
Hows that for a revised comment PapaJ?

Text Size: A A A
The first symptom of melanoma is often a change in a mole, or the appearance of a new mole that has ABCD characteristics. These ABCD rules can help you tell a normal mole from cancer. The ABCDE rules are:
Asymmetry. One half of the mole does not match the other half.
Border irregularity. The edges of the mole are ragged or irregular.
Color. The mole has different colors in it. It may be tan, brown, black, red, or other colors. Or it may have areas that appear to have lost color.
Diameter. The mole is bigger than 6 millimeters across, about the size of a pencil eraser. But some melanomas can be smaller.
Evolving. A mole changes in size, shape, or color.
Diagnosing melanoma starts with checking out a mole or other mark on your skin. Your health care provider will examine your skin with the ABCDE rules in mind. This means looking at:
Your health care provider will ask you about the mole. Tell him or her:
When you first noticed it
If it hurts or itches
If it oozes fluid or bleeds, or gets crusty
If it's changed in size, color, or shape
Make sure to tell your health care provider if you've had skin cancer in the past. Also note whether anyone in your family has had skin cancer.
A biopsy is a sample of tissue that's taken to be checked in a lab. Your health care provider will likely take a biopsy of any mole or other skin mark that may look like cancer.
The different types of biopsies include the following:
Excisional biopsy. This type of biopsy is often used when a wider or deeper piece of the skin is needed. It's done when a melanoma is suspected. The entire mole and part of the surrounding skin is removed. First, a local anesthetic is used to numb the area. Using a surgical knife (scalpel), a full thickness wedge of skin is removed. The wound is closed with surgical thread (sutures), staples, steri-strips, or surgical glue. This depends on the size and location of the incision.
Incisional biopsy. This procedure is the same as an excisional biopsy. But only part of the mole or mark is removed.
Punch biopsy. This type uses a special tool to take a deep sample of skin. The tool removes a short cylinder of tissue, like an apple core. First, a local anesthetic is used to numb the area. The punch tool is turned on the surface of the skin until it cuts through all the layers of skin. This includes the dermis, epidermis, and the most superficial parts of the subcutis (fat). The biopsy sample is removed and the edges of the wound are then stitched together.
Shave biopsy. This type of biopsy removes the top layers of skin. They are shaved off with a scalpel. Shave biopsies are done with a local anesthetic. This method may be used on a mole if the chance if melanoma is very low. This method is not usually used if melanoma is suspected.
A biopsy sample is sent to a lab, where a doctor called a pathologist looks at them under a microscope. He or she may do other tests on them to see if they contain melanoma cells.
If melanoma is found, the pathologist will look at certain features of the melanoma. These include the thickness of the melanoma and the portion of cells that are actively dividing (mitotic rate). These can help determine the extent (stage) of the melanoma. The stage of melanoma helps determine treatment options.
The pathologist might also do other tests to look for certain gene changes within the melanoma cells that could affect treatment options. For example, about half of all melanomas have changes in the BRAF gene that help the cells grow. Certain medicines can help treat melanomas that have this change. But these medicines are not likely to help treat melanomas without this gene change. Testing the cells before treatment is important.
Your biopsy results will likely be ready in a few days to a week or so. Your health care provider will notify you of the results. He or she will talk with you about other tests that may be needed if melanoma is found.
You may have questions and concerns about your treatment options. You may also want to know how you'll feel and function after treatment, and if you'll have to change your normal activities.
The doctor is the best person to answer your questions. He or she can tell you what your treatment choices are, how successful they're expected to be, and what the risks and side effects are. Your doctor may advise a specific treatment. Or he or she may offer more than one, and ask you to decide which one you'd like to use. It can be hard to make this decision. It is important to take the time you need to make the best decision.
Treatments for melanoma are local or systemic:
Local treatments. These remove, destroy, or control the cancer cells in one area. Surgery and radiation therapy are local treatments.
Systemic treatments. These are used to destroy or control cancer cells in the entire body. Chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and biological therapy are systemic treatments.
You may have just one treatment, or a combination of treatments.
Each type of treatments has its own goal. Below is a list of treatments and their goals:
Surgery. The goal of surgery is to remove the melanoma, while leaving as much of the nearby skin as intact as possible.
Radiation therapy. The goal of radiation is to destroy cancer cells. It may be used after surgery to try to kill any cancer cells that are left. It may also be used to help treat melanoma that has come back after initial treatment or has spread to other parts of the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy X-rays or other types of radiation.
Chemotherapy. The goal of chemotherapy is to destroy cancer cells directly to shrink tumors that can't be removed by surgery. Or, it may be used to kill cells that have spread to other areas of the body (metastatic melanoma). Chemotherapy is done with medications.
Biological therapy. The goal of biological therapy is to shrink advanced melanoma tumors. This type of therapy is done with medicines. The medicines use chemicals that affect the immune system. It is also called immunotherapy, antibody therapy, or vaccine therapy. The medicine uses your body's immune defense to attack the cancer cells. Common medicines for this include interferon and interleukin-2. These may also be given along with chemotherapy for stage IV melanomas. Medicines called immune checkpoint inhibitors can also boost the body's immune response. These include pembrolizumab and ipilimumab.
Targeted therapy. The goal of targeted therapy is to shrink advanced melanoma tumors. This type of therapy is done with medicines. The medicines target specific parts of melanoma cells. For example, medicines called BRAF inhibitors target cells with a change in the BRAF gene. This gene is found in about half of all melanomas. BRAF inhibitors include vemurafenib and dabrafenib.
Researchers are always finding new ways to treat cancer. These new methods are tested in clinical trials. Talk with your doctor to find out if there are any clinical trials you should consider.
At first, thinking about treatment options may seem overwhelming. Talk with your doctors, nurses, and loved ones. Make a list of questions. Consider the benefits and possible side effects of each option. Discuss your concerns with your doctor before making a decision.

Re: Mathematica code & Latex
Thanks for your answers
Including Mathematica code without notebook2e doesn't work. And I don't

notebook2e.sty won't change the fonts. Can't I "reset" the fonts after
loading notebook2e?

"I knew that I wanted to go to Auburn after taking my visit there this weekend," he told Inside the Auburn Tigers. "I wanted to get home and talk to my family about my decision and I am excited about it."
The 6-2, 205-pound safety, a long-time Arkansas commitment, considered Arizona State and others, but said Auburn stood out.
"I really felt comfortable there with the players, coaches and everybody I met," he said. "It is really like a family there and that is important to me.
"Auburn has great tradition and I want to be a part of that," he added. "I want to be a part of the group that gets the program back to the top, and I want to be a part of the group that starts beating Alabama again."
Khari Harding
As a senior Harding made 105 tackles as his Sante Fe High School team finished with a 10-2 record in 2012. As a junior he collected 71 tackles.
"I like these coaches a lot," Harding said about Auburn. "They are real with you. They know what they are talking about. They've coached a lot of great players. They have put players in the league and I like that a lot."
Harding and wide receiver Tony Stevens are Auburn's two most recent visits. Stevens, a wide receiver from Evans High School in Orlando, Fla.. also committed to the Tigers on Sunday.
With Auburn switching to a 4-2-5 defense this season, safeties are a high priority for the Tigers. Harding said that is one of the reasons he chose the Tigers, noting he believes he will have a chance to contribute as a freshman. "It is a great opportunity for me," he said.

SBC cam for the street, hydrulic or soild lift
Hey guys,
I'm gettin ready to do a cam swap in my 406 pop-up motor. What do you guys think that would be the best for street and every once in a while drag racing? hyd or soild cam? I want a cam lift around 501 to 550 tops, like I said I want to drive this car on the street. I got all the good stuff to make a big cams work (intake/carb/gears/stall)
I do want to produce a decent amount of hp, just enough to get me in the 12's, but most of all it has to have a really chopy sound, the car is running low, low 13's as it is with a hydraulic 515 lift cam in it now.
I'm just wanting to freshen up the motor, and dont know if i should stay with hydraulic or go with a solid. Hydraulics are the easiest to adjust the rockers i do believe , I'm really not that familiar with solid lift cams that much, but i hear they produce the most power. With keeping in mind that this a street/strip car, would it be ok to put a solid lift in it? The reason i ask is i hear that solid lift cams make alot of valve train noise when driven daily. Is that true?
I also have a new set of 1.5 roller rocker's and a new set of 1.6 ratio rocker's so when making a cam suggestion which rocker's would be best for the cam/ext set up??? once again THANKS for all the great info i get on this site
If needed you can found out a little more about my car and engine set up on this previous post Thanks again still having 406 trouble
Last edited by tiresmoke55; 08-27-2006 at 11:39 PM.
I am sure somebody with more experience with solids will correct me but I was always under the impression that solids do make more power but they always had to have the lash adjusted. But I have also heard that you can use polylocks with them just like a hydraulic so you can set the lash and it will stay where you adjusted them eliminating that particular hassle.
Yes, solids are very noisy. If you don't like very mechanical sounding valve train then don't get a solid.
I find it easier to adjust a solid lifter cam because you do it with the engine off. However, it needs it done about once a month, depending on how you drive it.
A solid cam will typically make a little more power due to faster ramps.
I like the compcam 292H for your car. However, the cam you have is not your problem. The stock heads is what is holding you back. Invest in some Edelbrock rpm heads and leave the cam alone.
I would go with the Lunati 276 Voodoo cam with 1.6:1 rockers- its hydraulic, but the ramps are more agressive than alot of solids. You may need to keep the 1.5:1 on the exhaust side if you cannot get the valvetrain clearance. If you really like some lope ask them to reduce the LSA to 108 instead of 110.
ok for the street would a comp cam 305h 525 lift be little 2 much for a weekend driver???? they say its not recommended but i really think it would be ok.. what do you guys think? thanks
I also believe the Comp 292H would be a good choice for you, the 305H is a little to radical for a street motor. I am using the Comp XE284H and am very happy with it also.
I have run solids for over 25 years. I adjust them once or twice a summer.
Depending on the grind, some are little noisier than some hydraulic grinds.
Solid cams allow the tuner to change the lash to get the car tuned in better (within reasonable limits).
Solid lifters don't pump up.
I guess you might say I favor solid cams.
gear drives
does any body have any sound effects on timing gear drives from your motor, post them, and what drive co it is,
I run a solid roller In my Nova. I started the engine for the first time, got it to operating temp, adjusted the valves again, and never touched em since. Not much noise at all. I used a good set of stud girdles and rockers. The power gains over my hyd flat tappet was felt to me like 50 hp ! And If you like to work on your car like most of use do, its fun to adjust your valves once in a while. If your adjusting to get noise out all the time then something is failing in your valve train. Just my .02
I agree with 454C10 and the people in your other threads. Upgrade the heads. They will become the ultimate limiting factor, it takes more than stall, gears, intakes and carbs to make a big cam work. It's all about the total package and the heads are HUGE part of that. I think at this point the bigger cam isn't going to get you where you want to go, or at least you aren't going to get the results the engine would be capable of putting out. Dollar for dollar I think your biggest gain is going to come from a head upgrade. Save the money for some good heads. They can be expensive but you're gonna have to jump in some time. Might as well make it now.
Maybe then you can match those up with a Comp 294S if at that point you still want to swap cams.

Im rolling my Penny's to get some new heads at the moment right now.... i just figure if im going to have the motor apart i would go ahead and freshing it up u know with a bigger cam is well..... wont take a extra hour with the heads off to do a cam swap, then im 100% sure whats in the engine also it should wake it up quite a bit i think,,,, kinda kill 2 birds with 1 stone u know...
Does anyone know where a good deal on a set of aftermarket set of heads are kinda cheap? used or not... just need a good deal.... dont forget im a poor boy lol thanks
You have to remember that bigger isn't always better. The 305H is excessive, the 292 (or whatever you have now) sounds as if it's plenty big enough. If you're gonna swap cams with the heads try to find a solid right around the same size cam you already have.
World Products and Dart have good Iron heads for under $1000. You're probably gonna want something with ~200cc heads, probably nothing bigger than that.
hey guys.... Im going to a swap meet in Springfield Ohio this weekend,,, I hear they have a vendor there that sell's dart heads for company cost, like under $700 for a complete set WOW!!!!
comp cams says a 305h cam 525 lift is to much for the street but hmmm not sure about that,,, i know guys with 550 lift cam in there cars and they drive them ever weekend... There good on gas to, NOT just kidding about the mpg !!!!
ok i agree a 525 lift is alot for the street but for a weekend car it shouldn't be that bad i dont think... i had a 292h comp 501 lift in a nova i had and drove it ever day but i considered it as a mild motor.... the 501 lift sounded and rev-ed great but it could used a little more pounding from the tailpipes lol........
Yes i do know bigger isnt better so thats why im not sure i want to use the 305h 525lift cam in my car,,,, but i want this car to pound the ground when cruising into a car show With that said i might use the 292h comp 501 with 1.6 rockers or the 515 lift bracket master from luniti w/ 1.6 rockers............. i really think the 525 lift with 1.6 rockers would sound really really good but might be a little mis matched with my motor w/o getting new heads right now.... it would sound good but most likely run slower lol
thanks again guys
I think you should have titled the thread " which cam sounds the best, I dont care how it runs!"

HAPPY Wednesday all! Aren't you glad to see that Australian Homes are BACK!? Thank goodness for that. Imagine a Wednesday without a gorgeous new Australian home to drool over. How sad that would be :)
ANYHOO we're kicking things off this week with what I would consider a typically kooky, eclectic, op-shop fabulous Melbourne home! This sweet pad in Footscray belongs to photographic artist Jessica Tremp and her musician hubbie Michael Madden. They live here with their distinguished dog Soda, an ex-racing greyhound (who is adorable but much less energetic that you might imagine a greyhound to be).
This creative couple have been here only 6 months, but have already put their stamp on their new surrounds. They're renting, but nevertheless have made a concerted effort to spruce up their new place, even re-painting the whole interior. They're still getting used to their new neighbourhood after moving from the Northside, but are loving the generous proportions of their new home, with it's high ceilings, large rooms and huge green backyard (with trampoline!). Jess says 'I love that I always feel relieved when I walk through the front door, it's a space that allows for being creative in'. Michael says his favourite thing about the home is that Jess is in it. Awwww!
Massive thanks to Jess and Michael for sharing their home with us – do share the love by taking a moment to check out Jessica's beautiful photographic work. Her fine art photographs are here. Her commercial stuff is here. Much gorgeousness to discover.
Jess has a thing for taxidermy, and has collected many pieces over the years. They're dotted throughout her home. This one is the most striking… I think because it's mounted so unnaturally on the wall? Very eery but beautiful.
More with the taxidermy! This wise owl watches Jess as she works at her desk! The image on the computer screen is one of Jess's photographs from this recent series. The original watercolour of the jumping fox is by T. Grice. The man on the left is an old tin plate photograph.
Bedroom. Jess wears extremely cute vintage shoes. I wish my feet were small enough.
More with the vintage shoes. Quite a collection!
Both Jessica and Michael love this painting in the hallway. 'We found him on a dumpster and call him the 'sad man' says Jess!
Bathroom details
Kitchen detail – isn't that colander an excellent colour?!
Soda the dog at the front door!
Fab backyard. Swing – check. Trampoline – check.

Fathers and daughters have a unique connection that may seem like a love/hate relationship at times of conflict, especially when boyfriends are involved, but one of the strongest in the long run. Former Rockford resident and mystery author W.S. Gager has written an essay as a tribute to her father and grandfather for the latest "Chicken Soup for the Soul" book subtitled "Thanks Dad."
"I found out they were looking for more entries to finish the book from a fellow writer. The story just popped in my head and I sent it off. The next thing I knew I was in the bonus section in the book," said Wendy Gager who writes as W.S. Gager.
"Chicken Soup for the Soul: Thanks Dad" is 101 stories of gratitude, love and good times compiled by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Wendy Walker with a foreword by Scot Hamilton, the 1984 Olympic gold figure skater.
Gager's story is in the bonus section entitled "Purely Grand Dads" and details a story called "Running the Gauntlet" about her father's and grandfather's attempts at questioning would-be suitors at the embarrassment of others.
"My dad and grandpa were horrible if I ever invited a date home. I can look back now and laugh at it, but as a teen I was mortified," Gager added. Her parents, Ken and Judy Gager, still live in Rockford. Sadly, her grandfather is now watching from above.
Gager lives in Fremont with her husband and two children. Her second book in the Mitch Malone Mystery Series, "A Case of the Accidental Intersection," will be released this summer.

Hey guys,
I'll be placing my order on a new 2014 WRX Hatch soon and am trying to get some input on options.
The limited model cost $3,500 more but it comes with HID headlights, Leather seats, fog lights, heated seats, heater mirrors, wiper de-icers, and moonroof.
I really want the HID headlights and the winter package since the car will be my daily driver.
Also the leather is pretty nice too (easier to clean, possible kids in the future and I plan on keeping the car very long).
The fog lights I planned on adding anyway ($300 online)
I'm not worried about the added weight as I highly doubt I'll be taking it to the track much if at all.
I've done a lot of reading online about retrofitting to HIDs and I definitely do not want to be opening the casing for anything due to safety issues (blinding other drivers) and melting the housing.
Now my questions are,
Is the H9 conversion a simple bulb switch out? and how does it compare vs base model halogens vs limited model HIDs?
Does anyone know where I can buy new OEM HID headlights from the limited that I can just drop into the base model? (haven't been able to locate any online)
If I could manage to get the Limited's HIDs into a base model then I'm sure that is the route I will choose.
I know its a personal preference but any feedback would be great.
Thanks in advance and I'm happy to be joining the community.

Michigan's Academic All-Americans
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- University of Michigan field hockey fifth-year senior Eileen Brandes (Falmouth, Maine/Falmouth) was named a 2012 Capital One Academic All-America third team member Thursday afternoon (June 7), as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
Brandes becomes Michigan field hockey's first Academic All-America honoree and U-M's 12th Women's At-Large All-American. She also is Michigan's second Academic All-America this academic year. Zach Novak earned third-team honors in men's basketball.
Brandes, who graduated from U-M in December of 2011 with a degree in biology and a minor in French, is a three-time Academic All-Big Ten selection and a two-time Big Ten Sportsmanship Award recipient. She also was a four-time selection to the NFHCA Division I National Academic Squad and earned the U-M Athletic Academic Achievement award three times. Brandes earned high honors on her biology thesis last December.
Brandes started all 22 games in 2011 as U-M claimed the Big Ten regular-season title outright and reached the NCAA Tournament quarterfinals. The co-captain helped the Wolverine defense to six shutouts on the year.
Brandes scored her first career goal in a 5-4 win over New Hampshire in the NCAA Tournament first round on Nov. 12. She also had a pair of assists in the 4-2 win over Indiana, helping Michigan clinch the Big Ten regular-season title. In her Michigan career, Brandes played in 70 games and had a goal and 10 assists with a defensive save.
The Falmouth, Maine, native was one of two field hockey players on the Academic All-America teams as Penn State's Kelsey Amy was a third-team selection. Brandes also is one of three student-athletes from the Big Ten to earn Academic All-America honors. Ohio State rower Ulrike Denker was a second-team selection.
To be eligible for Academic All-America honors, a student-athlete must be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.30 cumulative grade-point average (on a 4.0 scale) at his current institution. A student-athlete must also have participated in at least 50 percent of the team's games, completed one full calendar year at his current institution, and reached sophomore athletic eligibility.
Athletes from the following women's sports may be nominated for the at-large team: bowling, rowing, fencing, field hockey, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming and diving, tennis and water polo.
Michigan ended the 2011 season with a 15-7 overall record and a 5-1 record in Big Ten play, winning the outright regular-season title. The Wolverines advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the 10th time in school history, defeating No. 9 New Hampshire, 5-4, before falling to No. 1 North Carolina, 5-1.

Calm Reigns at First Planning Meeting for Bike Share Stations
Given all the sturm and drang that has accompanied New York's bike lane expansion, you might think the first meeting to discuss where to put 600 bike share station when New York rolls out its bike share program in July, tempers would be hot.
After all, in a place where every inch of space is contested, figuring out where to locate 600 bike share stations is no small task.
But you'd be wrong.
Tuesday night the city held what will be the first of many planning workshops. About 50 people gathered in an overheated room on West 42nd Street to pore over large maps of Community Board 4, which stretches from 14th Street to 59th Street on Manhattan's west side.
"We're very excited," said Corey Johnson, the chair of CB4. "I'm glad New York is finally catching up to something that has performed quite well in other cities across the country and across the globe."
That attitude seems typical: ever since the city put up an online map requesting ideas, more than 8,000 locations have been suggested.
City Department of Transportation employees walked community members through a presentation about the bike share program, then unveiled a large map of the district that had suggested bike share station locations on it. There had already been some vetting. "We have technical criteria," said DOT policy director Jon Orcutt. "You're not going to put one that blocks a fire hydrant, you're not going to block a narrow sidewalk." He said there's no one-size-fits-all approach to station siting. Some will be on wide sidewalks, some will be in the street, some will be in plazas.
Corey Johnson said for him, pedestrian space trumped parking. "[Bike share stations] may eliminate a parking space or two on a residential block, but it's not going to eliminate sidewalk space for pedestrians," he said. "So is it worth having a dozen bicycles that are easy access on a residential block and give up one or two parking spaces? I believe the answer is yes."
Orcutt said the DOT had held over 100 meetings about the bike share program so far. "We're talking to property owners, talking to everybody we can, and carving out space here and there," he said. "You can't just say they're all going to be 15 feet from odd-numbered street corners. There's no way. You have to go and plan each single one of these."
So dozens of people gathered around six separate tables and scrutinized the map, block by block. "This specific site, I think, is very challenging," said Ben Donsky, the vice president of the Chelsea Improvement Company, as he put a red arrow on the map at 14th Street and Ninth Avenue. He said there was already scant space for pedestrians to relax, and that the sidewalk there is too narrow. "However, I think there are probably a dozen great locations right nearby." Richard Gottlieb, who lives on West 44th Street, put a black arrow on West 57th Street. Why? "West 57th Street is a very busy area and it would strike me as a good place to have a stop. It's that simple."
Others were thinking more macro. "I really like the idea of using the bike share as a means of expanding the transportation network," said Tyler Gumpright, who lives in Jackson Heights. He'd like to see stations "both close to existing transit options, like the subway, and putting them a little bit further away from existing transit."
Those long crosstown blocks between Eighth Avenue and the waterfront were also on the mind of Steven Collado, who works in Herald Square. "People will come in from the subway and want to get to say all the way down to the Hudson River or even 11th Avenue, they'd have a long walk. If they had a bike share, they would definitely take advantage of that."
They were singing Orcutt's tune. "One of the places we think this will really serve are the parts of the city are developing fast away from the traditional subway spines, like the waterfronts and other former industrial places," he said, "so you're seeing a lot of feedback there. Like 'hey, it's really hard to get anywhere from here,' or 'I can't get to the next neighborhood without taking a bus that takes all day.'"
Jess Berlin, who lives on the Upper West Side and works near Herald Square, said after the workshop that the experience was valuable. "I really liked the fact that they had a large map that we could really envision how the system would work," she said. She lives in a fifth-floor walk-up, she said, and didn't own a bike because she didn't want to have to carry it up and down stairs. Bike share "makes someone like me able to have a bike in the city," she said.
Orcutt said the next step is to take all the public feedback and "synthesize it into a recommendation, and then come back to community boards, business improvement districts, electeds, and get further input, make some further adjustments." He said the city would have a final station siting plan by early summer.

Disney Announces Acquisition of Marvel Entertainment Inc
Reported by Jay Cochran - 2009.08.31
Building on its strategy of delivering quality branded content to people around the world, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) has agreed to acquire Marvel Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:MVL) in a stock and cash transaction, the companies announced today.
Under the terms of the agreement and based on the closing price of Disney on August 28, 2009, Marvel shareholders would receive a total of $30 per share in cash plus approximately 0.745 Disney shares for each Marvel share they own. At closing, the amount of cash and stock will be adjusted if necessary so that the total value of the Disney stock issued as merger consideration based on its trading value at that time is not less than 40% of the total merger consideration.
Based on the closing price of Disney stock on Friday, August 28, the transaction value is $50 per Marvel share or approximately $4 billion.
This transaction combines Marvels strong global brand and world-renowned library of characters including Iron Man, Spider-Man, X-Men, Captain America, Fantastic Four and Thor with Disneys creative skills, unparalleled global portfolio of entertainment properties, and a business structure that maximizes the value of creative properties across multiple platforms and territories, said Robert A. Iger, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company. Ike Perlmutter and his team have done an impressive job of nurturing these properties and have created significant value. We are pleased to bring this talent and these great assets to Disney.
We believe that adding Marvel to Disneys unique portfolio of brands provides significant opportunities for long-term growth and value creation, Iger said.
Disney is the perfect home for Marvels fantastic library of characters given its proven ability to expand content creation and licensing businesses, said Ike Perlmutter, Marvels Chief Executive Officer. This is an unparalleled opportunity for Marvel to build upon its vibrant brand and character properties by accessing Disneys tremendous global organization and infrastructure around the world.
Under the deal, Disney will acquire ownership of Marvel including its more than 5,000 Marvel characters. Mr. Perlmutter will oversee the Marvel properties, and will work directly with Disneys global lines of business to build and further integrate Marvels properties.
The Boards of Directors of Disney and Marvel have each approved the transaction, which is subject to clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, certain non-United States merger control regulations, effectiveness of a registration statement with respect to Disney shares issued in the transaction and other customary closing conditions. The agreement will require the approval of Marvel shareholders. Marvel was advised on the transaction by BofA Merrill Lynch.

"That was my first time doing [that dive] because I'd go to practice and I'd be like, 'No, I'm not doing it,'" she told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover on Friday's Access Hollywood Live. "But I got up there and when I saw little Hank in the audience yelling, 'I love you,' I felt power."
Seeing her son in the crowd and realizing he would remember her actions for years to come, prompted Kendra to take the dive.

"I'm like, 'There's no way I can turn back. There's no way,'" she said. "That was the first time I did it and I nailed it. It was the scariest moment, but I did it."
Adding, "Would I do it again? No!"
Her courage didn't go unnoticed by 3-year-old Hank, who Kendra said is now mimicking her dive around the home she shares with husband Hank Baskett III.
"Now he's like jumping off his bed on his bean bag like, 'This is what you did!'" the proud mom said. "So it's inspiring him to be not afraid. It's actually really, really cool."
"Splash" returns Tuesday at 8/7c on ABC.

From Chapter 7 of Team Challenges, this activity is also featured at A to Z Home's Cool. This task simply cannot be completed without the participation of every person on the team.
Set Up:
Mark a finish line on the floor using tape. Line up the team parallel to the finish line and about twenty feet away. Place a blown up balloon or beach ball between each player's hips and instruct them not to drop the balloons or balls. Read the team instructions out loud to the team.
Team Instructions:
Have you ever heard the term 'joined at the hips'? In this task, you have the opportunity to see exactly what that means. Without dropping any of the balloons or beach balls, you have three minutes to work your way to the finish line. If you drop a balloon or beach ball, you must begin again at the start line. You will be notified when you have one minute remaining.
Have Fun!
