YORK RUFC welcome back a host of big guns as they bid to get their new campaign off to a winning start against Old Rishworthians in the first round of the Yorkshire Shield tomorrow.
Head coach Sean Bass has been boosted, as he plots promotion from Yorkshire One, by the return of some key performers ahead of the start of term.
Full-back Alex Nixon, centre Sam Arkle and Ricky Roberts have all come back to Shipton Road, while Bass has also moved to bring in back-rower Dave Robinson from National League side Billingham.
They are moves that leave the York chief in optimistic mood as they prepare to welcome the Yorkshire Two outfit to Clifton Park for the cup clash.
He said: "Dave is a great player and he is good to have around. He is a York lad and he lives close by. Alex is back and he is fit. He looks in good shape as does Sam, who has trained all summer after a year off.
"Ricky is back as well and they all feel like new signings. Promotion is the aim for us this year. As a coach, I can't see the point of doing the job if that is not the aim.
"It's going to be tough. We are a proud county and, wherever you go, everyone is going to want to get stuck into you. We got a good result last week when we beat Pocklington at home (in a friendly).
"We are looking forward to getting into Rishworthians. We don't know much about them. We will focus on what we can do, welcome them to York, and get a win."
Selby will be putting out as strong a side as possible as they continue their quest to get their hands on the Yorkshire Shield.
The Sandhill Laners entertain Hullensians in the opening round and, after being finalists twice in the last five years and falling narrowly in the last four to Scarborough last term, will look to win the prestigious trophy this time around.
Head coach Richard Nicholson said: "We take the Shield very seriously and we will put our strongest side out. We fell in the last four last year and we are desperate to go one further.
"We have a few missing players but, hopefully, we will have enough. We know from our season in Yorkshire Two that they are a really tough side and they have done very well to get into Yorkshire One.
"It will be a very tough game, no doubt."
Nicholson will be missing a number of players, including Sam Weller who is suffering from a neck injury, but welcomes to the club former colt Jack Guest and centre Pete Turner.
Malton and Norton are hoping to steer clear of injuries as they plot a return to North One East.
The Gannock-based outfit get under way with a Shield clash at Heath and are confident of challenging in the top half of the Yorkshire One table - if they can avoid the losses they have experienced over the past two seasons.
Malton were ultimately doomed to relegation at the end of the last term as they fought to balance a side which was changing week to week. The summer harvest means they will be light in the pack as go to Halifax for their first competitive outing of the season.
Bill Laidler, club spokesman, said: "We will be a lot stronger than last year when we were massacred with injuries. We will be strong this time. The league is the main target and this is viewed as an extra trial game.
"But we will take it seriously and, as far as the league is concerned, we will be looking at the top half of the table."
York RI also return to action at the weekend, the New Lane outfit hosting Marist in the opening round of the Yorkshire Silver Trophy. Pocklington have a preliminary round bye in the Yorkshire Cup.

Mrs. St. Pierre Lawrence, for the first time in her life, was not sure of herself.
St. Pierre, at this period of his life, certainly did not possess them.
We lay to for three days, and when the storm abated put into the French island St. Pierre, almost exhausted.
St. Pierre's only informant was his deep knowledge of the human heart.
That the two were well known in St. Pierre sur Loire, where they had lived for many years in the relationship mentioned.
"I got good news," said St. Pierre, with no softening of countenance.
Mrs. St. Pierre Lawrence appeared to be mollified, and turned toward the house with a gesture inviting him to walk with her.
Field forges were established at St. Pierre to dismount the guns.
The situation of St. Pierre, overlooking the Seine, was pretty enough.
That day she and one of her daughters happened to be far away from St. Pierre.

During times of transition and uncertainty I always find solace in my yoga practice. It's during the times when things are easeful and going well that I'm apt to lapse and slide into the mindset that I can skip a practice… or three… or ten. But when things are feeling particularly stressful I know that the best remedy involves my bare feet, a sticky mat, and a deep breath. Yoga attunes the mind as much as the body and I've come to rely on the early morning (or late night) moments to find my emotional center. Some days recently I've woken tired and cranky and it's been hard to get out of my warm bed to face the day. The last thing I want to do is get up to spend 20 minutes on the mat when I could press snooze instead. But being accountable to show up has been such a blessing.
If you follow me on Instagram (@natanyahaviva) you've noticed I've been posting pics of my yoga practice and tagging them with the #natanyayogadaily hashtag. Sharing my daily practice has become not just an enjoyable ritual, but a major support as well.
In the next month or so Simeon and I are planning on downgrading our phones. No more iPhone means no more Instagram. Though IG is usually a giant time suck for me (one that I very much enjoy), I will especially miss sharing my personal hashtag posts, #natanyayogadaily and #simandnatgetmarried.
Perhaps I'll find another way to share those special updates here on the blog. In the meantime though we haven't downgraded yet! For now I'm updating regularly at @natanyahaviva.

"Bullock and Hairston are tough matchups."
The Tar Heels duo combined for 41 points on 13-of-23 shooting, 20 rebounds (5 offensive), six assists and six steals.
Bullock posted his third double-double in his last four games, pairing 19 points on 6-of-8 shooting (4-of-6 from 3) with 12 rebounds. Hairston scored a game-high 22 points on 7-of-15 shooting (2-of-7 from 3) to go along with eight rebounds.
"It's efficient for us on the offensive end to run the small lineup because people can't match up with P.J.," Bullock said.
Hairston sparked UNC early with game-highs of 10 points and six rebounds at halftime. Turgeon had several bigger post players to defend UNC's 6-foot-5 four-man with minimal effectiveness. If Hairston wasn't threatening from long range, he was displaying his ability to get into the lane off the dribble.
Maryland used a 13-4 run to take a 27-24 lead with 3:24 left before halftime. Hairston gave UNC the lead back at 29-27 with a deep three – on an assist from Bullock – and then rebounded his own missed free throw with 44 seconds remaining to set up a Bullock jumper to further increase the margin.
Maryland eventually went small after halftime to counter Hairston, who answered by taking advantage of the Terrapins' decision to switch screens to work against smaller defenders.
"Just play my game and basically stay on the offensive boards and try to box out those big bodies," Hairston said of his approach.
Bullock did his damage after halftime with 14 points and nine rebounds. He drained a 3-pointer roughly two minutes into the second half to push UNC's lead to 39-29 and then added seven more points over the next seven minutes to give his team a 56-42 lead with 9:31 left.
Bullock has labeled himself as one of the team's leaders throughout the season, but his play has begun to highlight that aspect of his game in recent weeks.
"I'm just trying to be more vocal on the court, telling my teammates to take shots that I know they work on every day," Bullock said. "They definitely screen the hell out of people to get me the ball, so I thank them for doing that and work to continue to get them the ball.
"I just love seeing the smile on their faces."
While their scoring is critical, it's their rebounding that drew the most praise during postgame interviews.
"The 20 rebounds is the really important part," Marcus Paige said. "We are a little undersized with our lineup, but P.J. and Reggie have really been crashing the boards. And then, obviously when they make shots that definitely helps. The most important thing is the way they control the boards."
Not only are they required to pick up the slack with the small lineup, but they also play a role against teams that shoot a lot of 3-pointers.
"I think our wing players really have to help us do a great job," UNC head coach Roy Williams said. "Particularly, in today's game, there are so many 3-point shots. There are so many long rebounds. [Maryland] shot 23 threes and so the perimeter players have got to help you get more of those because your post guys are inside and the ball is bouncing over their head."
Since UNC switched to its small lineup seven games ago, Bullock and Hairston are combining for 33 points and 14.7 rebounds per game.

I dig it, next sketch you do you should thicken up your outline a bit, make your shit a little bolder it will look better.

Rolling Kush-- the second two pieces are dope. the AMS isnt nearly as good as the other two. im not really diggin the heart shaped thing at the end of the M
Spyder-- deffinitely thickin lines like ribcage said
++++++SIR CREW++++++ sircrewgraffiti.blogspot.com
Eat poop all day
Spyder - Like those two said. And your 3D is very sloppy, especially those lines. E isen't flowin well, i would fatten the lowest bar. The whole piece could be cleaner, but diggin it overall, letters are kind of nice, its got potential. keep it on man.
Shush- i like that bottom piece but i would forgot about the designs on the top ones till you get some good letter structures

seriously dont know what i was thinking when i drew the character

Eat poop all day
are you in israel or some shit? why the fuck do you get a whole week off for a jewish holiday.
and crits:
Shush - work on keeping all your letters the same size. draw horizontal lines across the page if you need to. cause especially on the bottom piece it really throws the whole thing off when the letters are changing sizes.
Fokes - other dude was right the top piece could use some work but that bottom one is the shit.
block - there's a lot going on and the letter structure could use some work. especially that c.

I sever heads, just to sharpen my skills
here is a throwback peice i did, says "SEK" was the first word i ever wrote n got arrested writing, so i felt like doing something with it again, besides the weak color combo, lmk what yall think. any and all crits are welcome.
not sure where i should post so ill start at the bottom, crits please
heres some more work that i could find, please crit, advice is always welcome, some of these are older than others btw. thanks
This is a shot at a detailed throw that turned into a piece-of-shit simple.
Can i get some crits on how to make it a simple
give up, stop attempting to write
i learned simples from doing keybaord letters, simply draw the letters on your key board. figure out sizing, and spacing and there's your simples.
Souloner- you got some dope pieces but id say work on letters and structure rather then complex color schemes. get dope letters. its hard to do complex colors schemes with markers anyway
saiko- what soul^^^ said
Crits please
++++++SIR CREW++++++ sircrewgraffiti.blogspot.com
Eat poop all day
Thanks,Soul & block
@block it'd look better if the letters were even. And maybe drop that extention on the staff of the k Also that indent on the o should point to the right. Not really feeling that c either
ty man, ill work on some more letters, and for yours its pretty much like what saiko said the "L" looks awkward when its so small,
soul, dope pieces. Heres what i try and keep in mind. even though im still a toy and JUST gettign in to straight letters and what have you, before any extentions what so ever you should aim to have super dope and crazy letters. Then from there you can add all the fancy stuff. w/ that style im wondering where youre from?

Sorry dt...thought I would help clarify....
Also the dealer is in full control of the warranty/goodwill approval process. Bmwna has given a lot of autonomy for self approval. I would ask your dealer directly to put you in contact with the regional vp for BMW, unless they are willing to continue working with you. I hate to say this but the 07 my was not the best year of the x3 line and trade assist/buy back might be the best options. I would pm Evlenger as he has been through this with an 07 and he might have some thoughts to help.
As a side note...don't let this bad apple ruin your taste for BMW/x3...my 09 has been rock solid to 99k miles. I would argue one of the best commute cars I have ever owned and fully expect it to hit 300k and beyond.
Happy to help off line if you need my input. I was ready to sign off BMW for life when I had the 07 AT. Once I got the new MT 08 in a trade assist most of the major problems went away. I can tell you that (Passport BMW of MD) contributed a great amount of pain and BS to the issue. i switched to a different dealer years later for another problem that had been on going for 5 months. The other dealer (Russel BMW of MD) resolved it in 5 hours! A dealer that will work with you can make a HUGE difference. BMWNA will back up their dealers 100% whether they are wrong or right. If they are wrong it took me a lawyer and almost a year of documenting to get past (Passport's) BS.
Good Luck and PM if you need me.

RICHLAND, Wash. – This week Senator Ron Wyden is on a fact-finding mission at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in southeast Washington. The Oregon Democrat chairs a key committee that shares jurisdiction over a $12 billion waste treatment plant being built at Hanford. Soon, the main contractor on that project might face hefty fines.
The punishment stems from an investigation of the troubled plant by the U.S. Department of Energy. The findings in that report are startling.
At Hanford, there's a slow grinding conversation in paper going back and forth, back and forth. In scientific-speak and legalese these reports have slapped down between government agencies, contractors and watchdogs. Lately, that conversation has been getting terser.
And it's raising major questions about the waste treatment plant, says Tom Carpenter. He's the head of the Seattle-based watchdog group Hanford Challenge.
"How bad is it? Is this plant really salvageable at this point? If so what do we need to do to fix it, what will it cost, how long will it take?" Carpenter asks.
This report was circulated and leaked in November — but here, we're taking a closer look at what it says. The document was drafted by the U.S. Department of Energy's investigative and enforcement arm. Even its name is a mouthful: The Office of Health, Safety and Security's Office of Enforcement and Oversight.
The report is a pretty dry read – but if you look close, it includes some serious concerns.
First, just a tiny bit of history. This waste treatment, aka vitrification plant, is a 65-acre complex. It looks like downtown high-rises smashed together with a major-league stadium. The massive factory is supposed to treat 56 million gallons of radioactive goo.
Yes, goo… continue reading at Northwest News Network.

Chinese Netizens Pay Ai Weiwei's Taxes; Ai Says He'll Fight "to the Death"
UPDATE (7 November 2011, 9:30 A.M. HKT): The CCP-blessed Global Times has retorted with an opinion article this morning that paints the donation campaign as a distortion by the foreign media:
Some experts have pointed out this could be an example of illegal fund-raising. Since he's borrowing from the public, it at least looks like illegal fund-raising. Meanwhile, as Western media reported, Ai purchased an upscale apartment in Berlin last year, and had planned to buy a 4,800-square-meter studio this year also in Berlin. Does he need to borrow money to pay off his tax evasion? However, as we are neither legal or tax professionals, these are not the key points we have tried to make.
It might be true that a few people in China would like to give him some money. Some donators said they view the donation as an act of voting. But the thing here is, Ai's borrowing and the subsequent donations will not make any substantive change to Ai's case. First, it will not alter the matter of Ai's tax evasion, something his followers don't even question. But many hold the view that tax evasion is rampant in China. This time, it is an excuse Chinese authorities have used to punish the dissident.
The donations will not change the public's attitude toward Ai's case, either. It is absolutely normal for a certain number of people to show their support for him with donations. But these people are an extremely small number when compared with China's total population. Ai's political preference along with his supporters' cannot stand for the mainstream public, which is opposed to radical and confrontational political stances.
Read the entire piece here. In the meantime, while donations don't seem to be stopping, Shanghaiist reports that "some donors have reported being unable to send money to the Paypal account." Ruh-roh. But that hasn't stopped some supporters; Ai recently told the BBC that people had even begun "throwing money into his garden in the form of paper aeroplanes"!
Original story below.
Ai Weiwei, detained and later released by the Chinese government earlier this year, was finally issued a bill for his troubles: a startling 15 million yuan (US$ 2.4 million) of alleged back taxes and fines. With little over a week left to pay and the threat of his wife being imprisoned hanging over his head, Ai has declared that he is willing to fight the charges "to the death." Despite being banned from speaking to the press, the artist—accompanied by a team of tax experts and lawyers—met with Reuters in his Beijing home, where he explained why his defiance is now greater than ever:
Will a person like Ai Weiwei surrender? [...] Ordinary people will not be able to endure this. But because they've targeted me, I'm still willing to accompany them on this road. Because I'm not afraid of them. I think it's improper that a country is engaging in shameless activities.
Now, Ai is using his mother Gao Ying's lovely house as collateral. It was left to her by Ai's father, revered poet Ai Qing, and estimated to be worth 25 million yuan. Ai plans to ask for an administrative review in which a panel will re-examine the decision. Why he even bothers going through the motions of bureaucratic appeal confuses me. Just as the artist has stuck to his guns, the government will likely stick to theirs. According to one of Ai's associates, Fake Ltd.—the company being slapped with the tax bill—has in fact yet to receive an audit report. Its financial manager Liu Zhenggang was "illegally detained," before being sent to his hometown and barred from contact with others.
In the meantime, an incredible outpouring of support has come from the Internet. Human rights activist Hu Jia announced on his microblog that he had donated money to Ai, jumpstarting a fundraising campaign to pay off the tax bill. Not long after, Ai posted his bank account number and address on his Weibo account—emphasizing that he would be only taking loans, not charity—and thousands of netizens began to send money his way. The Chinese artist, recently voted "The Most Powerful Person in the Art World" by The ArtReview, vouched he would return all of the money, tweeting:
Lend it to me. If I lose, I'll return the money. If I win, I'll also return the money. One old Ai, 6,000 of you. What's there to be afraid of?
Organizers of this campaign have begun to ask donors for personal information, though for the most part, there is no real loan system in place. In any case, the majority of donations have come through the form of Alipay, the Chinese third-party online payment platform. Others have even used Paypal, bank transfer and postal order. We expect the latter three to become more important to this campaign, since Alipay will presumably block the payments to avoid the wrath of the CCP. But as Penn Olson acutely points out, the Alibaba-owned company "risks angering netizens," and might find it tough to prevent a crowdsourced effort if "Ai's many friends and fans began to collect donations on their own to pass along." The government has already shut down Ai's Weibo account, though he has been operating under the pseudonym accounts "Ai Huzi" (@艾虎子, lit. Ai "tiger cub," or "brave youth") and "Tui Jing Ban" (@推京办, lit. reject the Beijing Office) - which also seem to intermittently go offline.
A trusted "studio supporter" of Ai Weiwei who has helped manage the loans announced today that over 16,000 people have helped raise funds:
Thanks friends. In the two and a half days since we made the announcement on November 4th at noon, a total of 16,134 users have used Alipay and bank card loans to lend @aiww 3.48 million yuan worth of funds. This is called a miracle.
Perhaps the best suggestion we've heard so far comes from Human Rights Watch researcher Nicholas Bequelin, who tweeted: "Suggestion for Ai Weiwei: 1. Frame the tax bill. 2. Autograph it. 3. Let a rich collector buy it for the stated figure." Or, as BianTaiLaJiao.com's comic below suggests, he might think about some more drastic measures. Then again, it's not like he hasn't gone nude before (image slightly NSFW). Except we don't think he charged for a peek last time.
Bian Tai La Jiao (lit., Crazy Chili) interviews Ai Weiwei. The Chinese word for pear is a homophone for "stress" (ya li), symbolizing the giant tax burden he has to bear.
"Everyone can see it. Your pear (stress) is enormous. How do you intend to respond this time, if you don't mind me asking?"
"Sell myself…" "How?"
"150 yuan, one time viewing! 1500 yuan, monthly subscription! 15,000 yuan, yearly subscription!"
"Your mom can afford this. So when are you going to go buy it? Fuck…" (Note: The Chinese characters refers to Ai's company, Fake Design, but are also pronounced "fa ke.")
For those who are interested in helping out, Ai Weiwei's Alipay/Paypal account is email@example.com.

When you hear the term "consumer trends," fashion is first to come to mind. For example, teen retailer Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE:ANF) looked outdated most of the year (until this week's bump), while luxury line Michael Kors (NYSE:KORS) took the runway — and Wall Street — by storm.
Food, on the other hand, often is seen as a staple — a steady necessity for consumers, far from the fickle world of style and seasons. But consumers still make and follow patterns when it comes to what they crave, which means the popularity of different foods comes and goes in waves.
As the New Year quickly approaches, some foods will soon find themselves tossed out as their tastes become so last year — and other consumables will rush to fill that void.
Let's take a look at which companies could benefit from food trends expected to take hold in 2013:

Desperate Housewives Season 4 DVD out today. Whoo-hoo! Nathan is in at least one of the extras "The Men of Wisteria Lane".
This was probably the best season since season 1. I was almost through watching this show but the new character(I'm forgetting her name. Nathan's wife) drew me back into the show.
I'm much more interested in Life, which is also out today, I believe. I'd say it was the second best new series last season, behind only Mad Men, and Christina Hendriks is in both of them. She's also apparently back in both this season. Hendriks is hot, hot, hot right now. Well, hot always, but hot hot hot as an actess.

Hats off for the Fourth of July (Picture Puffin Books)
It's the Fourth of July, and the people of Chatham know this is one parade they won't want to miss! A juggler and baton twirlers are the first to march down the street. Who will come next? There are cowboys on horses, the third-grade marching band, and everyone's favorite, Miss Eelgrass with the long green hair. Everyone is sorry when the parade is over, but wait! There is something else to look at-way up in the sky. "Hats off indeed to this splendid parade of a book." (Kirkus Reviews) Illustrated by Gustaf Miller

Nothing... all you get is some stupid diploma, and don't listen to INFERNAPE06, you don't get in the elite four.
AgentWaddlez - 6 years ago
I don't know, but it is unimportant for 2 reasons:
1. It is currently impossible without hacking.(Arceus)
2. If there is a reward, you could hack it.

Unless you hack you can't do it and if you can hack you could probably hack the reward!

INFERNAPE06 - 7 years ago
Just a diploma thing. And Saicotic, you are the only noob here, except maybe for Infernape06. You fail to realize that he asked this question a year ago, and the TRU Arceus was not given out a year ago at this time. So why would you call him and the people who answered his question at the time a noob?
FYI the TRU Arceus was given out from November 7, 2009 to November 15, 2009, according to Serebii's event database.
SShredder565 - 6 years ago
When you complete your Pokedex, you get a key to the house in the nice village with the hotel. There is a building there you could never enter before. Enter it and meet a person, that says he's a game creator and gives you some diploma.
(The key might not be required.) :)

Education Students Accompany 8th Grade Science Trip
Posted by Pengxeu Thao '15, Roseville on Friday, May. 23, 2014
University of Minnesota, Morris education students Luciana Ranelli '14, Claire Goodrich '14, and Evan Beranek '14 participated in the 2014 South Dakota Field Investigations Trip. From May 12–16, they assisted 40 eighth-grade students with hands-on geological investigations throughout Badlands National Park, Wind Cave National Park, Devils Gulch, and Black Hills Formation.
The students traveled with Marlene Schoeneck, science methods instructor and Parkers Prairie High School teacher, who lead the trip. Schoeneck's eighth-grade class generated research questions, created hypotheses, and expanded perspectives on the South Dakota landscape. Ranelli, Goodrich, and Beranek accompanied them not only as chaperones, but also as future educators. By helping facilitate the expedition, they applied the lessons they learned from their time in Morris's education program.
"[The trip] reinforced and rekindled my motivation for going into science education," adds Ranelli. "Being in a field- and investigation-based environment with kids of the age that I want to work with took me back to formative outdoor learning experiences that I had and let me observe and practice how to facilitate that."
Goodrich adds, "when going through the elementary education program at Morris, I learned so much about creating hands-on, minds-on and inquiry based lessons. When we reached a site, it was my job to foster an environment of inquiry. Therefore, I would ask questions that would lead the students to determine the answers on their own."
The annual trip began when Schoeneck connected with the late Peter Whelan, professor emeritus of geology. In 2003, they began the first week-long field investigation trip with Schoeneck's eighth-grade classes through South Dakota. Since then, the expedition has become an annual opportunity for undergraduate education students to apply their teaching knowledge in the field.
"The trip gives me further interaction with Morris students that were in my science methods class in the fall and gives them the opportunity to put into action the work on inquiry-based learning and essential questions that we do in class," says Schoeneck. "It is an invaluable experience for the students in education and will generally impresses potential employers. "
The South Dakota Field Investigations Trip is a collaboration between the University of Minnesota, Morris and the Parkers Prairie community. For more information, visit their website or contact Schoeneck at email@example.com.

When you backup without exhibits under the same file name, are you
first deleting the previous backup with exhibits? Or, are you letting
TMG overwrite it?
I have found that under some circumstances, you can get Win98 to
report a file size that is out of date. I noticed that immediately
after I saved a file (not from TMG) it would sometimes be reported as
having a size of 0 and, if I overwrote a file it would continue to
report the old size. Selecting refresh from the view menu would then
cause it to report the correct size.

Over the past few years, I had developed and employed a stock selection strategy based on three criterion. These included screening for valuation, using a set of criteria such as minimum yields, dividend payout ratios and dividend growth. After I had a manageable list of stocks to focus on, I would do an analysis of company fundamentals for quality, while assessing the likelihood of future earnings growth.
The more time I spent running my screen and analyzing companies in detail, the more I realized that there was a partial disconnect between the two. I was more of an intuitive investor, who focused on dividend growth and yield, but could not really explain well why I had preference on one company over another in the pre-screened stock list.
The parameters for screening of dividend champions for example included:
- P/E below 20
- Current yield above 2.50%
- Dividend Payout Ratio below 60%
- At least a decade of consistent dividend growth
The missing ingredient was evaluating companies on a case by case basis, based on the yield and growth characteristics they employed. For example, should I select a company yielding 2.50% that is growing distributions at 12% per year like Becton, Dickinson (NYSEL:BDX), or should I select a company yielding 4% that grows dividends at 6% like Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB)?
If these growth rates are expected to continue for the foreseeable future (5 years from today), which company is a better candidate? Assuming that only one of the two can be purchased at a time, I usually bought the first in month one and the second in the next month. However, this still didn't really provide for an answer that would allow me to evaluate companies in a more standardized way, other than on a one-by-one basis.
This problem was also present when evaluating my dividend growth portfolio. Should I keep a stock yielding 4% that grows distributions at 1% per year or replace it with a company that yields 3% but grows distributions by 6% annually? This decision is particularly complicated given the uncertainty of projecting past dividend growth rates into the future, coupled with evaluating dividend payout ratios, valuation and prospects for earnings growth.
Some investors add the five or ten year average annual dividend growth to the current yield, and select the stock with the highest score. For example let's assume that an investor had to choose between Yum! Brands (NYSE:YUM) with a 5 year dividend growth rate of 17.80% and a yield of 2%, and McDonald's (NYSE:MCD) with a 13.90% growth and a 3.40% yield. The score for Yum! is 19.80 , while the score for McDonald's is 17.30. The clear favorite in this scenario is Yum! Brands.
When looking at dividend growth rates however, the length of the dividend boosting streak is important if it exceeds ten years, but after that it should not be a differentiating factor. In other words, if all else is equal, a company that raised distributions for 35 years is not any better than a company that has raised them for 15 years.
On the contrary, it could be argued that companies in the early days of their dividend achiever status might have more time to grow the dividend, in comparison to a mature dividend champion. Looking at Yum! Brands versus McDonald's however, then the latter earns more points, since it has been raising them for over 36 years, while the former only has a nine year record of dividend growth.
In addition, when we look at valuation, one might notice that McDonald's is trading at 17.30 times earnings, whereas Yum! is valued at a P/E of 19.70. A big factor in Yum's stronger dividend growth could have been the expansion in the dividend payout ratio, whereas it had been more stable at McDonald's.
On the other hand, future expected growth at Yum! is much higher than that for McDonald's, as KFC franchises are opened at an increasing rate across the globe. Chinese market is in particular much more receptive to KFC than to McDonald's restaurants, which is where a large portion of Yum!'s growth can be delivered over the next couple of decades.

CAMPAIGNERS trying to persuade the government to radically improve the quality of mandatory sex education have been offered the chance to visit schools throughout Greater Manchester.
YES Matters, launched by Gemma Aitchison, aged 27, from Westhoughton, staged demonstrations in Bolton, Manchester and London, and is calling for sex education to more explicitly refer to consent and technology.
The movement was launched in the wake of the House of Lords rejecting a Department of Education proposal to put a mandatory Personal, Health and Social education programme (PSHE) on the national curriculum.
Stockport MP Ann Coffey, who is currently chairing an inquiry into the links between runaway children and child sex exploitation met Ms Aitchison and other YES Matters campaigners in London on Monday.
Tentative proposals were put in place which, once YES Matters becomes a formal organisation, will enable members of the campaign to sit on government advisory panels and visit schools to present their views to pupils.
Ms Aitchison said: "It's really good for us to get such credibility. Ann said she really admired how we've worked with Bolton Council and the universities, meeting people and explaining our arguments.
"We have not just blindly laid the blame at the door of men, but done research and made this inclusive, which feminism perhaps wasn't in the 70s and 80s.
"I'm really looking forward to the group starting work in schools Ms Aitchison began campaigning about the sexual objectification of women in the media after her 16-year-old sister Sasha Marsden was murdered in Blackpool in January, 2013.
Hotel owner David Minto was found guilty of her murder in July last year and sentenced to a minimum of 35 years imprisonment.
The campaign has also won support from Labour leader Ed Miliband, Bolton actress Maxine Peake and Greater Manchester's police and crime commissioner Tony Lloyd.
Mr Lloyd said: "By raising this issue, Gemma is making an important contribution to the debate — all our schools should be providing high quality education to young people about relationships."

Polyoxometalate-Containing Diblock Copolymers
Investigators: Zhonghua Peng, UMKC-Chemistry (PI); Yong Wang, UMKC-Dentistry (Co-PI)
One exciting development in recent years on polyoxometalates (POMs), a fascinating type of molecular anionic cluster with sizes in the nanometer region, is that new chemistry has finally allowed the rational and controlled incorporation of POM clusters into -conjugated systems. It is now conceivable to envision next-generation POM-containing hybrids which offer morphological control and possess ordered micro- (and/or nano-) domain structures. This project aims at preparing unprecedented hybrid diblock copolymers with one flexible block containing POM clusters as pendants and the other block an -conjugated polymer. The fundamental question to be carefully addressed is how attached "giant" ionic clusters affect the self-assembly process and what new morphologies may result. Such hybrid diblock copolymers are potentially new efficient photovoltaic materials. In addition to achieving efficient charge transport through diblock copolymer self-assembly, sub-phase liquid crystal order, including both nematic and discotic liquid crystalline phases, are judiciously designed to further improve charge transporting properties.

Democrats Ask Drug Policy Office to Do More to Combat Opioid Epidemic
Twenty Democratic senators are asking the Office of National Drug Control Policy to do more to combat the opioid epidemic, according to the Associated Press.
Get personalized support for your family
Facing a federal ban on terms like "light," "mild," "medium," "low," and similar descriptors on cigarette packs, tobacco companies are starting to use color-coding to distinguish one variety of cigarette from another, the Associated Press reported June 4.
Tobacco-control advocates say the move from language to colors just maintains the status quo. While tobacco companies have always insisted that the classifications denote the taste and blend of the cigarette, rather than a quantitative health-risk difference, studies have shown that 90 percent of smokers and nonsmokers believe "light" cigarettes to be healthier than their "regular" counterparts.
David Hammond, a health-behavior researcher at the University of Waterloo in Canada, approved of the new federal law but suggested that the ban on descriptive language was merely the first of many necessary steps. "This is essentially mopping up the worst excesses of what the courts in the U.S. have judged to be deceptive advertising," he said.
More than 40 countries have similar packaging and marketing restrictions; Australia, for example, is pushing legislation that would allow only nondescript, colorless, logo-less cigarette packs.
Such a move, tobacco executives say, could cripple the industry. "Absent this information," said James E. Swauger, vice president of regulatory oversight for R.J. Reynolds in a letter to the FDA, "massive confusion in the marketplace would result."

For Facebook page administrators looking for a first step into the world of marketing, PageLever recently launched Minilytics — a free service that aims to teach the fundamentals of social marketing. Minilytics serves as an introduction to PageLever, offering administrators a look at the best time to post, the number of fans the page's posts reach, the most popular kind of content to post, and an analysis of the demographics of the fanbase.
Although Minilytics just got off the ground Friday, PageLever Director of Growth Brendan Irvine-Broque told AllFacebook that more than 1,000 accounts have already taken advantage of the service.
The goal for Minilytics is for it to act as an introduction to PageLever. Marketers who are just looking to dip their toes in the water or figure out the basics of their pages can utilize Minilytics, and then once they grow accustomed to it, look into the paid services offered by PageLever. Although right now, only four questions are addressed, Irvine-Broque said the company plans to add more depth in the future.
Irvine-Broque explained the new service to AllFacebook:
Our paid product is a very serious, robust analytics product, and we didn't want to water anything down or try to appeal to all audiences, but at the same time, we wanted to create kind of a free, educational tool for people. Minilytics is kind of something that we built to educate the broader community, and I'm sure there will be people who use Minilytics to become customers of ours, but then there are a lot of people who, maybe they just manage a smaller page and this is what they need.
Readers: If you manage a page, what tools or services did you use when you started out?

Washington, D.C. (March 8, 2013) - The Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI) today issued the following statement regarding the introduction of legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives by Congressman Steve Womack which would stop the current National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) from enforcing any rules, regulations or decisions the government agency has issued since January 2012:
"While there are encouraging economic signs, Americans are still struggling to find good-paying, high-quality jobs. It must remain the priority of Members of Congress to pursue policies that boost economic growth leading to greater job creation. While this is widely understood among many in Washington, one notable exception is President Obama's NLRB, which has bent over backwards to reward Big Labor bosses to the detriment of American employees and employers," said Fred Wszolek, spokesperson for the Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI). "Therefore, considering the D.C. Circuit recently ruled the members of the Board were unconstitutionally recess appointed even as they engage in efforts to kill jobs and hurt economic growth, it is absolutely necessary for Congress to rein in this bureaucracy which has run amok. We support Congressman Womack's legislation to stop the NLRB from continuing to issue decisions and making any decisions it has issued since January 2012 of no force and effect, until such time as Board members are constitutionally appointed or the recess appointment issue is resolved by the courts."
House Bill Would "Stop NLRB Actions Until Appointments Fight Settled":
"Rep. Steve Womack (R-Ark.) on Tuesday introduced legislation that would prevent actions taken by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) since last year from having any effect until the courts sort out whether President Obama's appointments to that board were constitutional. The introduction of Womack's bill, H.R. 976, comes on the heels of a January decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington that the recess appointments of Sharon Block, Terence Flynn and Richard Griffin to the NLRB were unconstitutional because they were made during a pro-forma session of Congress. President Obama re-nominated both Block and Griffin last month; Flynn resigned last year. It is widely expected that the administration will appeal with court's decision, which could very well make its way up to the Supreme Court. Womack's bill would stay the NLRB's decision 'until final disposition is made in certain actions relating to the appointment of individuals to such Board that are pending in Federal court.'" (Alex Lazar, "GOP Bill Would Stop NLRB Actions Until Appointments Fight Settled," The Hill, 3/6/13)

Saddam farewells his family in 'high spirits'

AS SADDAM Hussein farewelled his family in anticipation of his imminent execution, Americans were bracing themselves for their 3000th military death in Iraq, a milestone that is probably only days away.
The ousted president bade two half-brothers farewell on Thursday, a lawyer said. Another said the US had called him to organise the handover of Saddam's personal effects, indicating his imminent release to the Iraqis.
A senior Bush Administration official said Saddam could go to the gallows as soon as today but an Iraqi cabinet minister said a week-long religious holiday would stall any execution.
"He was in very high spirits and clearly readying himself," Badie Aref, another defence lawyer, said after Saddam met half-brothers Watban and Sabawi, who are also both held at Camp Cropper, near Baghdad Airport.
"He told them he was happy he would meet his death at the hands of his enemies and be a martyr, not just languish in jail. He . . . gave them letters to his family in anticipation."
A US military spokesman confirmed that Saddam was still being held at a US-run prison. Earlier, CBS News reported a US military officer as saying Saddam would be turned over to the Iraqis in the next 36 hours for the hanging.
As US officials and Iraqis expressed concern about the potential for even worse bloodshed following Saddam's execution, the US military reported the deaths of five more troops in Iraq.
The deaths bring to 2988 the number of US troops who have died there since the war began in March 2003. The news came as some of the war's chief neoconservative proponents, Richard Perle, Kenneth Adelman and David Frum, spoke in Vanity Fair of their despair at the Bush Administration's incompetence in handling Iraq.
Despite claiming his statements had been "distorted" by the magazine, Mr Perle was quoted saying: "I think if I had . . . seen where we are today, and people had said, 'Should we go into Iraq?', I think now I probably would have said, 'No, let's consider other strategies . . ."
When the war began, Iraq was a "doable do", to use a military planner's phrase cited by David Frum.
But Mr Frum, the former speechwriter who co-wrote Mr Bush's 2002 "axis of evil" speech, said a US defeat in Iraq might be inescapable because "the insurgency has proven it can kill anyone who co-operates, and the United States and its friends have failed to prove that it can protect them".
Organisers say about 140 demonstrations in 37 US states are planned to mark the 3000th US military death in Iraq.
Tens of thousands of Iraqis have been killed since the war began. At least 30 Iraqis died yesterday in bombings and shootings, including a suicide bombing in Baghdad that killed 10 people. Police said 42 bodies of tortured men were found dumped in Baghdad.

Congressional races set for Pennsylvania
Anti-Washington sentiment in national polls won't hurt Pennsylvania's members of Congress this election year, experts say.
"None of the Democrat or Republican congressional members in the region are facing strong opposition in their primaries or general elections," said Dave Wasserman, an expert on House races at the Cook Political Report in Washington.
An ABC News/Washington Post poll last week found 68 percent of voters want to replace their House members and only 22 percent plan to vote to re-elect their members of Congress, the lowest numbers in 25 years.
Tuesday was the deadline to file for the May 20 primary election.
Of the 13 House Republican seats in Pennsylvania, 11 are ranked "safe" by the Crystal Ball, a publication of the University of Virginia Center for Politics. It rates the 8th District, represented by Republican Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick of Bucks County, as "likely Republican" and the 6th District as a "toss-up" for a seat that Republican Rep. Jim Gerlach of Chester County is vacating.
Western Pennsylvania's GOP representatives — Mike Kelly of Butler, Keith Rothfus of Sewickley and Tim Murphy of Upper St. Clair — aren't likely to lose their seats. Murphy is running unopposed in May and November. Neither Kelly nor Rothfus has primary challengers, but Kelly will confront Democrat Dan LaVallee this fall and Rothfus will take on the winner of the Democrat primary race between John Hugya of Somerset County and political newcomer Erin McClelland of New Kensington.
Kelly thinks the delegation's work ethic keeps voters content.
"Democrat or Republican, all of us are cut from the same cloth in this region," Kelly said. "We work hard for our constituents, and we listen."
Good constituent services help an incumbent hold a seat, said Wasserman, but so does a district's boundaries.
"All of those seats, Republican and Democrat alike, were redrawn to make each member safe," he said. "They would all be more of a 'swing district' if they were less packed with partisans."
Pennsylvania's five Democrats in Congress are rated "safe" as well. The party is likely to keep the 13th District seat in Montgomery County, opened by Rep. Allyson Schwartz's gubernatorial run.
Rep. Mike Doyle of Forest Hills, who represents Pittsburgh and the Mon Valley, has a primary opponent — Janis C. Brooks, who runs a North Verailles social service agency. She lost to him, 80 to 20 percent, in 2012. No Republican is running in Doyle's 14th District.
"You always approach a challenge with respect to the person running against you," Doyle said.
The situation is far different from 2006, when Democrats swept across the state to take House seats from Republicans, Wasserman said. And in 2008, the Erie-based 3rd District seat held by Republican Phil English flipped Democrat to Kathy Dalhkemper, who lost to Kelly in 2011.
"By 2010, everything turned upside down for the Democrats, and the majority of the delegation was held by Republicans," Wasserman said. That GOP trend continued in 2012 when Rothfus unseated Democrat Mark Critz in the 12th District.

Happy Wednesday Idol worshippers! Did you miss me after the blunder in Nashville last week? I'm most definitely certain you did. Actually, I'm not certain at all. Almost as uncertain as I am about the success of Kara DioGuardi's song writing ability for Idol winners. This Is My Now. I mean, really? Speaking of Kara, how come American Idol didn't apologize to us with the ominous black card for subjecting us to her nonsense for 2 seasons, but they somehow found a reason to apologize for something Steven Tyler did that they won't even acknowledge? What were they even apologizing for anyways? Well, as we reported earlier, Ryan announced it this morning on his radio show, telling us to look out for the black card at the start of the show. Tip #1 that this is most definitely a rating's ploy. Next week, they'll want to apologize us for something J Lo did and that'll end up being something like her kissing her husband on national TV or something. So as America wondered why the apology, they showed a clip of Tyler asking a contestant, with the last name of Muck, what that rhymes with. If Mother Goose did her job, the contestant would know the answer was "duck." Ding Ding Ding! Now, rewind to last week. In Milwaukee, Steven Tyler made a comment, "Hell fire save matches, f*ck a duck and see what happens." Is that what the apology was for?
Now, this isn't the first time Idol has needed to blur someone's mouth with the Idol logo for an obscenity, yet we've never seen an apology. And, as one of our members pointed out (thanks Kristin!), if it was so offensive, why choose to edit that into the program? It's not like it was a live show where what Tyler said was beyond production's control. Another Yak reader thought it could have been because he hinted to a female contestant that she could be one of his … and he left it open to interpretation. Anyways, Idol got what they wanted. Buzz, me to talk about it (yes, I'm sure they wanted me specifically to talk about it) and I'm sure it brought up the ratings just a bit more.
But first (another shout out to our Big Brother fans), let's get down and dirty (not that way Steven), and take a look at all the goodness Idol provided us tonight! They most definitely made up for Nashville's debacle with Austin, Texas. Apparently, things are bigger down there. Oops, the Yak will apologize on my behalf tomorrow.
Let's take a dive into the back stories we got today, and we got quite a few. First up was Corey Levoy, the man who reconnected with his sister when they were both teenagers. After being separated at birth due to parental struggles, the two reconnected later in life and are since best friends. Oh, and Corey apparently has a J. Lo booty. They're gonna need to apologize for that too. I didn't need to see him strut like that. This audition marked the first of a couple where families were invited into the audition room, yet again, because the judge's pretended to not know anything about the back story. So in comes the sister. And what do you know, she sits down by Steven to judge. How unrehearsed? Seriously though, this guy can sing, giving his sister "chillbumps" and all.
Enter John Wayne Schulz. Ya, it's a different John Wayne, we won't belabor the irony. Idol did enough of that for us. Everyone's new favorite cowboy showcased his talents to America tonight with a stirring rendition of a Brooks & Dunn classic. As if his talent couldn't stand alone, Ryan and Co. were gracious enough to give us the story of his mother who fought breast cancer and urged him to audition for her. Touching? Yes. Necessary? Definitely not. His voice can easily get him far without any of this nonsense in the background over his head. Now we should move on to Courtney Penry, you know, Ryan's long lost lover woman who clucked her way into Hollywood. She's ready to marry Ryan. What more can be said?
Our final back story expose of the night was the overly loving couple of Nick and Jacqueline. Could Idol have served any more cheese tonight with that montage? I mean, skipping through fields, kissing near the water, giggling while handing her a flower, looking in each other's eyes with deep, deep love. The only thing missing was Kara fantasizing about Casey James and his guitar. And I for one am glad we didn't get that. Now I don't know if this is worse or not, but the two can sure as hell sing, skipping their way into Hollywood as Idol promises to continue the love saga. Oh joy.
The final few contestants will be brought to you by Venus and Jennifer Lopez. Anyone catch that commercial tonight? J. Lo was looking fine if you ask me. We're gonna revisit these with our AIM lingo just like last week. So let's do it!
Hollie Cavanagh – Y did the judges mke her sing 2 songs? They've let worse thru in 20 sec and she had 2 wait a whole commercial break? Not only tht but did 2nd song have to be miley? ugh.
Shauntel Campos, Alex Carr, Caleb Johnson – This wks 30 sec reel of secret gold mines Idol dsn't wnt u 2 remember. Tyler-ism on clinical trials: He has smethng n common. Tht was the 70's 4 him. Will they have 2 apologize 4 this 2?
Janelle Arthur – 2 words: country sweetheart w/ powerful voice. oops, more than 2. such confidence and sense of knowing who she is. Ne1 other than me get a sense of Carrie Underwood in her while she was singing?
Casey Abrams – save best 4 last? singing Ray Charles, the skat master gave us a big voice, soothing high notes n raspy rock sound. Ne1 wanna learn how to play that little instrument? Definitely a contender this season – I can feel it.
Be sure to join us tomorrow for Los Angeles! As always, our FORUMS will be open to all guests for commenting during Idol episodes, so stop on in. You don't even have to register to let us know how you feel! As always, let us know what you think of the episode below and let me know if you want to see anything change or stay the same in our recaps! The Yak…Out!

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - If you listen to Dave, Shelly and Chainsaw in the morning on Jack FM, you probably know they were on the air live when the 9/11 attacks happened. This Sunday, the DSC is going to re-air that program along with new commentary and reflections on what happened 10 years ago.
"I had truly pressed the button to start our music for the morning and my producer came running in and said, second plane, second building, and that's when everyone knew," Dave Rickards said. "And it occurred to me, you hear these things throughout your life; you hear President Reagan has been shot, you hear President Kennedy has been shot, you hear the Challenger exploded after take off. And, it didn't dawn on me until 10 years later, I was that guy. And I wish I could have been cooler about it, but…"
"I don't know how I looked when I came back but Dave said, 'Tell me what you saw', and he walked back and looked and I remember Dave saying, 'We're at war'," Shelly Dunn said.
"No one really thought that structure would actually collapse like it was a planned demolition. And I don't think the terrorists knew that either," Cookie "Chainsaw" Randolph said.
"Very early on in the show Shelly you commented, 'How is it possible to bring down a plane with all the security measures in this day and age?' And back then, I think you could skip onto a plane," Rickards said.
"And it was seven or eight days later that Giuliani, who emerged as a hero, hosted a baseball game at Shea Stadium and Liza Minnelli sings beautifully," Randolph said.
"Wasn't it 'Never Forget', wasn't that the slogan? It's a good thing," Randolph said.
The DSC has put together a two-hour radio show with audio from the 9/11 program that aired live back in 2001. It's called "9/11 Revisited", hosted by the DSC, and it will air this Sunday, September 11 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on 100.7 Jack FM. You won't want to miss it.

Kittanning to swear in police chief
KITTANNING — The borough's new police chief, Bruce Matthews, is to be sworn in on Tuesday afternoon after what has been a contentious and drawn-out process.
Monday night, council voted 5-1 to rescind Matthews' previous 10-day suspension and to pay him all lost wages and benefits.
Council members Mike Rosenberger, Betsy Wilt, Joie Pryde, Ange Turco and Chris Schiano voted in favor of rescinding the suspension.
Richard Reedy voted against the measure.
Council members Kim Fox and Andrew Peters were absent.
The vote followed a 25-minute executive session during which time council said it discussed matters related to Matthews.
According to president Schiano, council was not able to make public the reasons for Matthews' suspension because of the collective bargaining agreement.
"There is a petition to unseat (Matthews), to make the suspension stick," said Schiano, adding that rumors had been circulating that some people had been strong-armed into signing the petition.
Resident Joe Bowser said he had started the petition but had not coerced anyone into signing.
"How can you honor a man who can't follow the law," asked Bowser.
"He hasn't been proven guilty," said Schiano.
Resident Tim Crytzer said he hoped that council had done its due diligence in the investigation process.
Schiano assured him that had been the case.
"The bargaining unit has a contract that says council can't comment on disciplinary action of police officers, said Schiano.
"We investigated it. It was investigated by an independent insurance (agency) and no wrong-doing was found."
"I'm the personnel chair and I can assure you I did due diligence," said Pryde, adding that she had asked to review personnel files.
Crytzer said he didn't like council's decision and cited a limited budget as the main reason for his objection.
"I'm asking that the borough be run the right way without personal agendas" he said.
Schiano argued that present council members were staying so well within the budget that the $250,000 tax anticipation loan for 2013 had not been touched so far.
"We're approaching solvency. Somebody must be doing something right," said Schiano.
Mayor Kirk Atwood commended Pete Harmon for his service as officer-in-charge while the issue over a police chief was resolved. Atwood noted that to save on overtime, the borough needed to hire a police officer to fill a floater position — to fill in for the other six officers' vacation and sick days.
Council voted 6-0 to hire an officer to fill the position.
After the meeting Atwood said the officer working as a floater would earn 70 percent of the base salary, which is $50,666.
During the meeting, Pryde said council had been notified by U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly's office of a federal grant that would fund 75 percent of the salary and benefits of the police chief for three years. The borough is eligible for the grant, and if awarded, would only be responsible for paying $8,865 total for two years.
"That's not a bad deal," said Pryde.
Cell phones
Reedy raised concerns over what he believed had been disruptive use of cell phones by some council members during previous borough meetings. His initial motion to ban all cell phones during the public meetings did not pass.
However, council voted 6-0 to put up signs in council chambers limiting cell phone use during meetings.
DreamWorks movie
John Adkins, location manager for DreamWorks, told council that filming for the movie "Glimmer" would begin July 21. During several days between that date and early October, some of the filming will take place along the Kittanning Citizens Bridge and along portions of Market Street, he said.
"We will be treating Kittanning with respect," said Adkins.
He said that movie making is an intrusion but the film company intends to minimize any negative impact on the town.
In other business, council voted 6-0 to hire two full-time street workers.

Topic: Mom newly diagnosed
Hello all,
I just found this site this morning. I posted on another thread earlier, but realized I should probably go to the intro thread first. My 56 yo mom was Dx with CC in late Oct. They found the tumor while doing a CT scan because she was having slight abdominal pain and had lost about 25 lbs. in a couple of months. She has a 10 cm tumor in the middle of her two lobes so we were told surgery is not and probably will not ever be an option. The first onc we saw told her she had 3-6 mo. and needed to "get her affairs in order." He said that he could do chemo, but it would be a waste of time because it never works. We were blindsided by this. My mom has never been sick and has been in perfect health untill this. We sulked around, cried and were devastated for a couple of days when my sister and I decided we just could not live with that attitude in our Dr. so, we did research and got her into MD Anderson in Houston, Tx. They seem to be much more positive there. He started her on Xeloda 1500mg twice a day and an IV of Gem something once a week. She does this two weeks on and one week off. She will have her scans rechecked in Houston in Jan. He expects that she will do 6 rounds of this regimine and then do 6 weeks of radiation. I told mom, atleast they gave us a plan that lasts longer than the first Drs life expectancy. Has anyone had any experience with MD Anderson? So far, ours has been good, but of course I want the best for my mom. It sounds like after reading other posts that her chemo is pretty standard for this cancer. We are hopeful, but still very scared and confused. We've been told everything from no hope at all to she could live for years by taking a maintainance dose of chemo after this treatment is over. We don't know what to believe, we're just hoping and praying for the best. This is all brand new territory for us. We don't know anyone with cancer, let alone this kind! So far, she is feeling OK, but she is totally exhausted most of the time. Any advise or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
