These socks are perfect for my 6 year old son who likes his socks to come up to his knees and always gets so cold outside in the winter. He loves them. I did order the size L because they do seem to run a little small. My son is currently about a size 1 shoe and these socks seem just about right wit... Read More
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Caitlyn from Virginia on Friday, December 23, 2016I was pleasantly surprised when I received these socks. The cushion is nice and thick. The sock itself is a lot thicker than I had imagined it would be. We love the bright, vibrant colors and the length of them. I can't attest to their longevity yet but fr examination, they look very well made so I have high hopes.
Verified Buyer Reviewed by VermontMama from Vermont on Wednesday, November 16, 2016These are great socks marked irregular. From what I can tell there is a skipped thread around the arch of the foot, but it doesn't look like something that will unravel or further deteriorate with wear. These will be perfect for my little guy thus winter.
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Ashley from Minneapolis on Wednesday, August 19, 2015We haven't tried these yet in cold conditions but, if my experience with other SmartWool products says anything, it's that they will be warm and snuggly. They seem to run true to size. My son is a size 7 shoe and the size XS seems like it will fit perfectly, maybe even a tiny tiny bit small. Very thick area on the foot and nice quality along the sock part as well. These will be great for our MN winters!
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Greta from New York on Saturday, August 8, 2015We cannot recommend SmartWool socks highly enough. My son has been wearing them since he was a baby (he is 10 now) and they're awesome. We buy extras, multiple colors, and give them away as gifts. They last for more than 1 child (we would hand them down, twice, when he was young and growing out of them more quickly).
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Joolieboo from Massachusetts on Tuesday, February 24, 2015We have tried a number of different brand ski socks and my entire family agrees that SmartWool is the best for comfort, breathability and warmth. My 12-year-old son thought these were really cool and was very happy skiing in them on a 1-degree day where the wind chill brought temps down to negative digits.
Yes, these are seconds but usually that means that there's a stitch of color out of place in the pattern (for these socks, it was a tiny line of grey thread in the heel). In all the SmartWool socks purchased from Sierra Trading Post, I have never had anything structurally wrong with the socks. Some socks are stamped "IRREGULAR" but this comes off in the wash.

I bought the large and it fits like a 3-5
Sock sizes are the same as shoe sizes. For kids sizing it goes from 6-13 and then up to youth, which is 1-6.

"Are the navy or steel blue stipe socks also known as Smartwool's Wintersport Stripe sock? They look like the same sock. Thanks"
This is the same as the Winter Sport Stripe, they used to be called the Snow Angel.

McNurlin vying for sheriff's post
Scott McNurlin has always silently dreamed of being sheriff.
The career goal is one the 27-year Goodhue County law enforcement veteran has kept quiet as Sheriff Dean Albers' chief deputy.
"I've thought about being sheriff my whole career but have never said it out loud out of respect," McNurlin said.
That changed Friday when Albers announced he would not seek re-election in November. McNurlin, the sheriff's right-hand man the past 12 years, announced the same afternoon he will run to fill his boss's shoes.
"Being the sheriff is kind of that ultimate opportunity to be able to serve the people you live with and work with every day on that next level," McNurlin said. "I really do believe I'm helping my neighbors and as I've risen the ranks through the sheriff's office I've always been able to do that."
McNurlin started his career with Goodhue County in 1983 as a jailer/dispatcher. He's held numerous positions with the agency.
The 48-year-old father of one said experience and education are what set him apart from the competition, Red Wing police Sgt. Marty Kelly.
"I understand the Sheriff's Office inside and out," McNurlin said. "It boils down to experience, qualifications and a proven ability to lead. I think that's really what separates us."
McNurlin said as sheriff he would look closely at ways the department can collaborate with other agencies to better utilize resources and save tax dollars. He also wants to continue utilizing cutting-edge technology to help officers do their jobs better.
McNurlin, of Belle Creek Township, said operating a transparent agency is important to him. If elected, he plans on starting a sheriff's advisory board made up of county residents.

Is it time to rid our vocabulary of the term "snowbird?"
It's a question we have been pondering for weeks at AZ Local Media, which includes newspapers and websites from Surprise to Tucson, including the Ahwatukee Foothills News.
In fact, we're wondering if there may be just as many, if not more, "staybirds" in the Valley.
Sure, there always will be Americans who keep two homes, one in Sleepy Eye, Minn., and another in Sun City; one in Medicine Hat, Alberta, and another in Mesa.
But for years now, the migratory patterns and numbers of snowbirds have been something of a mystery.
Arizona State University, which used to track snowbirds flocking in and out of the state, no longer does so. The Valley's proliferation of single-family homes has made research more difficult than it was when snowbirds arrived annually in their RVs, parking for six months or more in places like Apache Junction.
So we are taking on a project to determine whether the term snowbird and all that it implies remains accurate.
We want to find out if those we have come to know as snowbirds truly keep two residences and treat them as two homes — half a year in Medford, Wis., and half a year in Gilbert.
Or, has that pattern been altered?
Are snowbirds now staybirds?
Do they live in Arizona most of the year and take off for a few weeks or a month to visit their hometowns or vacation elsewhere when the sun blazes in the Southwest, and then return to their true home here in Arizona?
This won't be an easy task.
Normally a project such as this has a beginning, middle and end.
Consider this the beginning.
The middle will continue as long as it takes to squeeze out enough information from snowbirds, former snowbirds, businesses who rely on snowbirds and experts in the field of economics and other sciences. In other words, months.
As for the end, honestly, we don't know yet.
But we will work to get to that point, researching and publishing a series of stories that will shed some light on an issue that has a significant cultural, social and financial impact on our state.
We will begin by asking questions of a variety of people, groups and organizations to determine how things have changed since ASU last charted the snowbird pattern. Some of that information will involve hard numbers from government agencies and chambers of commerce. Some of it will be anecdotal, stories from business owners and others who make their living by providing goods and services to snowbirds and staybirds.
And then there is you.
We need to hear the stories of how your lives in the Valley have changed — or not — over the years.
Do you stay in your home here longer than you did five or 10 years ago? If so, why?
Have your annual vacations changed over the years? What about those of your friends and neighbors?
Also, let us know what kinds of questions you think we should be asking to obtain an accurate definition of "snowbird."
Keep an eye out for our Snowbird/Staybird logo over the next several months to learn what we have been finding out.

View 2toAsia on akihle's travel map.
5th of July 2011 we left Amsterdam behind and drove to Vilnius, Lithuania to greet Kestas family and drop off our cute 3 rabbits for a longer holidays at Kestas mom's place
In the village visiting grand parents and enjoying the beautiful nature, the boat needed some serious cleaning, but Kestutis sorted it out and we went on the lake to do some fishing!
Kestas mom has the cutest doggie, named Pretty.
The cake is Sakotis and a Lithuanian tradition, normally made by spinning a stick whilst dripping on the dough. In the picture is a really tiny version, the ones used for celebrations are above 1 meter tall and can weigh more than 50 kilo!! All the grandma's in the photos are Kestutis grandmas sisters, they were all really cute chatting away in Lithuanian all day long!
Kestutis other grandparents also lives in a village nearby so we stopped for a visit and his dad was also there
After the village laziness we went for some proper adventure in the river Vilnele close to Vilnius, kayaking for around 8 hours with friends in 4 kayaks.
Some of us were not that lucky, the kayak was sitting in the tree until the help arrived When Kestutis was trying to help getting the kayak loose the flip flop took a permanent swim, never saw it again!
After a couple of fun weeks in Lithuania we took the bus to Riga, Latvia and from there the overnight bus to St Petersburg, our first stop in Russia.

How do personal property and liability insurance work?
You can take every precaution to protect your property using alarms, locks, etc., but some losses are simply unavoidable. Fires and natural disasters strike without warning, and even the best locks and alarms won't always protect you from a professional thief. There are also situations in which you may be personally liable to another person for injury caused by you or your property.
The three most common types of insurance used to protect against personal property and liability risks are homeowner's or renter's insurance, automobile insurance, and personal umbrella insurance.
Homeowner's insurance will cover most types of damage to your home and most types of personal property (excluding cars), as well as liabilities for occurrences such as someone tripping on your steps and incurring medical bills. Numerous exclusions apply; damage due to flooding, for example, typically must be covered by a separate policy, and high-value items such as jewelry and paintings will require an appraisal and a "rider" (an addendum to the policy). Homeowner's insurance is required if you have a mortgage. Renter's insurance will similarly cover your personal property and liabilities.
Even if you think your personal property is not worth insuring, liability insurance is an important and often overlooked type of coverage. When it comes to homes it is up to the homeowner to decide whether he wants to risk losing everything he owns in order to pay someone else's medical bills, or if he would prefer to invest in personal liability insurance. Don't forget to look at the policy limits before deciding on a liability insurance plan: if your liability exceeds the policy limit, you will be on the hook for the shortfall. Umbrella insurance provides extra liability coverage and can be purchased for homeowner's, auto, and business policies, etc.
In fact, liability insurance is so important when it comes to automobiles that every car is required to be covered by some amount of liability insurance due to the high risk of vehicles causing harm to others. However, it's up to you whether you want to pay extra premiums for "collision" insurance, which covers repairs for damage you cause to your own car in a collision, or whether you want to risk paying any necessary repair or replacement costs out of your pocket. As to injury you may cause to yourself in a collision, state laws require even the cheapest automobile liability policies to provide some coverage, but not nearly enough to pay the medical bills for catastrophic injury.
Before buying property insurance, make sure you read and understand your policy. Make sure you are aware of the following at a minimum:
- What items are covered and for how much?
- What items are excluded from coverage?
- What causes of harm are covered or excluded?
- What are the policy limits?

Murrysville couple accused of bilking mental health program out of $200K
A Murrysville couple have been charged with using two relatives as "ghost employees" and duping the former Westmoreland County Mental Health/Mental Retardation program out of more than $200,000, according to the state attorney general's office.
Steven L. Manns, 42, and Tammy A. Manns, 45, of Williamsburg Lane, are charged with theft, conspiracy and tampering with public records.
The Mannses operated Therapeutic Pathways, an early-intervention program where the county agency — now known as Behavioral Health and Development Services — referred children for therapy from various therapists.
Tammy Manns served as Pathway president and owner of the Export business and her husband, a former Derry Area teacher, worked there.
The Mannses submitted falsified time sheets that inflated the amount of money they should be paid or increased the county's expenses for people who did not work in the jobs listed, according to court papers filed by investigators.
Those reports were an attempt to reconcile the amounts the business billed the taxpayer-funded state Welfare Department and the county for the period July 1, 2007, to June 30, 2008, agents said.
Tammy Manns' mother and father-in-law, who have not been charged, were listed as a human resource officer or a financial officer, or as working more hours than they did for Pathways, investigators said.
Authorities got involved after the county agency questioned a report that Tammy Manns signed and her husband witnessed. The Mannses then submitted revised reports.
In the revised report, Tammy Manns listed herself as working 2,311 hours in direct program time for $147,709, investigators said.
Authorities interviewed therapists and others who disputed her claims.
Employee Jen Maselli "indicated that much of the work that was shown on Tammy Manns' time cards could not have been completed by Tammy Manns because Jen Maselli did that work," investigators said.
Tammy Manns' personal assistant, Christene Smith, said she "rarely saw Tammy Manns working with the therapists or doing work related to Therapeutic Pathways," according to an affidavit. "Smith stated that Jen Maselli ... did most of the work with the therapists."
The revised report listed additional expenses for "undocumented compensation for the owner's mother, Mary Bradshaw, and father-in-law, Leonard Manns, totaling $92,964," according to the affidavit.
Mary Bradshaw said she worked out of her home for Pathways during 2007-08 and received 1099 tax forms listing payments of approximately $4,000 per year, investigators said.
"She did not serve as human resource director ... and did not earn $46,000 in 2007 and 2008," the affidavit states.
Investigators reviewed Bradshaw's 1099 forms and found she received $4,850 in 2007 and $3,990 in 2008.
Leonard Manns said he did not work as financial officer at any time and "he was not paid $46,379," according to the affidavit.
Leonard Manns said he worked for the business in 2008; his records showed he was paid $333.38, according to the attorney general's office.
The submitted reports showed Steven Manns worked 2,080 hours for Pathways in 2007-08, "despite his full-time employment at a local school district," the affidavit adds.
Austin Breegle, administrator of the county behavioral health agency, declined comment.
Attorneys for the Manns and the county agency did not return telephone calls seeking comment. The number at Pathways' office has been disconnected.
Both Manns are free on $20,000 unsecured bond. They face a preliminary hearing April 18 before Greensburg District Judge James Albert.
Steven Manns reached a settlement this week with the Derry Area school board over a grievance filed on his behalf. He was suspended without pay on March 1 as a science teacher "on the grounds that his behavior constituted immorality under the Public School Code."
Parties agreed that action on the grievance would be delayed until the criminal matter is settled.

Our View: Everyone needs to know about threatening incidents
Any and every person has a right to know if they are in danger, and law enforcement have a duty to inform the public of that danger.
This truth was never more evident than when The Dickinson Press heard the story of a Dunn County man and a self-proclaimed traveling "insurance salesman."
The Press received a call from a person who said a man claiming to be a salesman selling "cancer insurance" came to rural Manning resident Daryl Semerad's home, where he discovered he was not welcome.
The pushy salesman wouldn't leave Semerad's property, going as far as putting his foot in the door to keep the homeowner from shutting him out. Semerad even got a mop handle to shoo him away, but the salesman took it from him.
"The situation was becoming threatening," Semerad told The Press. "To that point, that's when I told him that I was going to get my gun."
That's exactly what Semerad did. The man was told to leave Semerad's property multiple times. Eventually, Semerad fired three shots — two warning shots and one that "may have" hit the unwanted "salesman's" vehicle.
People may be inclined to condemn Semerad, since firing a weapon at someone who is fleeing is considered a criminal act. But the rural man said he felt threatened, adding he thought the salesman may cause harm to him and his wife.
When someone lives at least 20 minutes from the closest law enforcement office and feels threatened, it's hard to blame them for trying to protect themselves.
This isn't about self-defense. This is about knowing that there was possibly a man driving around Dunn County threatening people. Residents want to know if they should lock their doors, and one would think the Dunn County Sheriff's Office would be quick to let them know, right?
That wasn't the case here. In fact, this incident occurred on Jan. 21. The Press didn't learn about the incident until Feb. 1. Our staff got on the story immediately, calling the sheriff's office. Two weeks went by with no response. The reporter drove to Manning to get the story, but found that a report about the incident had not been submitted. One deputy later told The Press "we documented the fact that a guy was possibly going around impersonating an insurance salesman," adding, "it's just another day in the oilfield."
It may be another day in the Oil Patch, but shots were still fired. Someone's life may have been at risk, and others may be in danger as well. The goal of all law enforcement is to protect the people they serve. One way to do that is to inform the public of any threat. Waiting days could put lives in harm's way, but waiting two weeks or a month is irresponsible.
We understand that illegal activity in western North Dakota has increased. More people are moving in evry day. That opens the door to more crime.
A dozen deputies can't possibly be on duty at all times and have to cover more than 840 square miles, which is home to approximately 44,000 people. Those numbers should tell anyone just how much their resources are stretched.
With that said, someone did drop the ball. A report should have been filled out within days. Anyone who pays taxes has a right to know what happened whether they are a journalist, a banker or a mechanic. Every citizen can call the law enforcement department and ask for an incident report, according to North Dakota's Sunshine Laws.
This isn't the first time this has happened in the history of news, and sadly it won't be the last. One of the best ways to get the message across is through the media — especially in a newspaper like The Press, which has more than 7,000 subscribers.
Social media has also become a huge player in spreading news, but the story often gets distorted with rumors.
We want to work with law enforcement to get the correct facts to our readers as soon as possible. When it comes to safety, we hope the Dunn County Sheriff's Office will be the messenger. The Press will certainly deliver that message.
The Dickinson Press Editorial Board consists of Publisher Harvey Brock, Managing Editor Dustin Monke and Assistant Editor April Baumgarten.

Subject: [BISSETT-L] Ancestral Spiritual Greeting!
Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2002 16:13:20 -0500
Hi All ~~ Some of you may remember that when I was at Lessendrum two years
ago I met another Bissett at the ruins. It was Bill Bissett and his wife.
Bill chases everything ancient regarding the Bissett's. Today I received
the following from Bill and have his permission to pass this on to the list.
However, attachments cannot be sent via the list so I have turned his
beautiful copy of the greeting into dull email text which you will find at
the bottom of this message. Thank you, Bill for sharing this material so
that all of us might enjoy it.
Bill Bissett wrote:
I had read a reference to a Bissett setting up a monastery in Ulster during
the middle ages but I couldn't find any further information in my research
here in England. When we went to Ireland in search of the medieval
Bissett's, I visited the library in Ballycastle to research Rathlin Island
and the local history of the Bissett's who held the Glens of Antrim and were
known as the Lords of the Glens from the 1250's to 1400, when the Lordship
passed to the Lords of the Isles through the marriage of Margery Bissett to
John Mor Macdonnell, who was the youngest son of the Lord of the Isles, by
his second wife, Margaret, the daughter of King Robert II of Scotland. In
passing, I asked the Librarian if he had heard of the Bissett's, which he
had, I went on to ask him if had heard of the reference to the monastery, to
which he replied that he knew of the monastery and that its remains were
still in existence with a church built on the site. He explained that it was
about 50 miles away and gave me its location at the entrance to the last of
the Glens. We immediately set off for the place and as you know found it, we
entered the grounds with the reverence of someone visiting an ancestors
grave, stepping carefully and searching for any mark on ancient stone where
our ancestors had once trod. Having searched the grounds we decided to have
a look inside the church which looked like a typical late 1800's building
with spire etc.
We silently entered the empty church which had been built 400 years after
our monastery, not thinking that we would find any reference to the
Bissett's. In the foyer, in a picture frame on the wall was the attached
greeting which seemed to have been put there by some one a long time ago,
who knew that one day we would come and find it. It was an incredible
feeling to read the greeting which seemed to be written for me, the hairs on
the back of my neck stood up, I stood there dumbfounded and read it several
times to make sure I wasn't mistaken and misreading the words, but it was
Below the greeting, on an old wooden table lay the manuscript written by
Hector McDonnell, Earl of Antrim with the title of Glenarm Friary and the
Bissett's. This is the document I gave you, so you know its contents. As I
was reading through the pamphlet the congregation started to arrive for the
service. The first lady in engaged us in conversation and we asked her about
the pamphlet etc., we asked if we could purchase a copy but unfortunately
she informed us that it was the only one in existence. I asked if it would
be possible to get it photocopied, she said that she would copy it the
following day and leave it in the church for us to pick up. We thanked her
and took her up on her offer, which she duly carried out. She did say that
if the Earl was in (the castle is across the road from the monastery but is
not open to the public) he would have been glad to see us given that we were
Bissett's as he obviously had a strong interest in the family and of course
is a blood relative of Margery Bissett.
I recently took out the photograph of the greeting, which was too poor a
reproduction to copy and OCR, so I experimented with the available fonts
until I made a more or less exact copy. I was so pleased with the result
that I printed it on photo paper and framed it. I have a copy on my desk at
work, which gives me great comfort, and I have a copy at home on the wall. I
thought you might appreciate a copy yourself so the greeting is attached.
Pause when you enter Traveller and bethink
thee how holy, yet how homelike, is this place.
Time that thou spendest humbly here shall link
thee with men unknown who once were of thy race.
This is Thy Fathers house, to him address thee,
Whom here is his children worship face to face.
Be at thy coming in with the peace will bless thee,
Thy going out make Joyful with his grace.
Greeting in St Patricks Church foyer, Glenarm Northern Ireland.
The church is on the site of Glenarm Monastery of the Third Order Francisan
monks, built and endowed by Robert Bissett, Lord of Glenarm, in 1465

Early diagnosis of cancer is of pivotal importance to reduce disease-related mortality. There is great need for non-invasive screening methods, yet current screening protocols have limited sensitivity and specificity. The use of serum biomarkers to discriminate cancer patients from healthy persons might be a tool to improve screening programs. Mass spectrometry based proteomics is widely applied as a technology for mapping and identifying peptides and proteins in body fluids. One commonly used approach in proteomics is peptide and protein profiling. Here, we present an overview of profiling methods that have the potential for implementation in a clinical setting and in national screening programs.
Population wide screening programs are used to detect early stage cancer to enable early intervention and reduce morbidity and mortality. Ideally screening tests have to be highly specific, sensitive, cost-effective and non-invasive. The development of new screening methods has become important due to an increasing incidence, as is the case for colorectal cancer (CRC). In addition, novel screening strategies aim at improved sensitivity and specificity in case of breast cancer. Advanced cancer has a poor survival, whereas when diagnosed at an early stage, survival is relatively good [
A biomarker, or biological marker, is a biomolecule that can be used as an indicator of a disease, based on abnormal presence, absence or changes in genes, RNA, proteins or metabolites. In this manuscript we will discuss protein biomarkers. The ideal biomarker is both highly specific and sensitive. For screening programs, the required measurements have to be reliable, robust, fast, and economical. The material containing the marker(s) should be easily obtainable and have a patient-friendly application. In this respect, body fluids such as serum are suitable sources of biomarkers. Possible applications are (early) detection, prediction of survival and prediction and monitoring of response to therapy. Here we focus on the use of protein biomarkers for early cancer detection.
The translation of the DNA code results in protein expression. In contrast to the genome, the proteome reflects a more dynamic state of the cell [
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in women with over one million new cases in the world each year [
Mammography is currently the most important tool in screening and early detection of breast cancer [
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most common malignancies and remains a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. There are approximately one million new cases of CRC per year worldwide [
Access to screening programs varies throughout the world, from population programmatic screening in developed countries to regional level screening programs or the opportunity of having a screening test when entering a health care system. Screening programs in most countries include average risk individuals aged between 50 and 75 years [
Currently available tests used for screening include guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (gFOBT), immunochemical fecal occult blood test (iFOBT), colonoscopy and flexible sigmoidoscopy (FS). Other less commonly used tests are stool DNA testing (sDNA), computed tomography colonography (CTC) and double-contrast barium enema (DCBE).
Due to its low costs and easy access, the most frequently used screening method is gFOBT. It detects the peroxidase reaction of hemoglobin. Disadvantages are the false–positive rates which make dietetic provisions necessary and low sensitivity rates from 20–40% [
With iFOBT, no dietetic restrictions are necessary because it only reacts to human hemoglobin. A wide range of qualitative and quantitative tests are presently available, with varying levels of sensitivity and specificity. With only one test, sensitivity rates are approximately 65%; when repeated every two years, sensitivity increases to 80–90% [
FS is an endoscopic examination with maximum reach to the splenic flexure. Its sensitivity is about 60–70% for adenomas and CRC [
sDNA examines the stool for the presence of abnormal DNA. The test sensitivity for CRC ranges from 52% to 91% [
CTC shows lesions in the colorectum by reconstructing two- and three-dimensional images. To date, no studies have been published assessing reduction in CRC incidence or mortality. DCBE shows the entire colorectum, although with significantly lower sensitivity and specificity than colonoscopy or CTC. The percentage of undetected carcinomas is up to 22% [
No available CRC screening test is yet perfect, either for cancer detection or adenoma detection. Each test has associated limitations and risks. There is a great need for alternative, non-invasive methods with high sensitivity and specificity rates, easily available and cost effective. Use of MS based proteomic serum biomarkers could form a specific, more sensitive and less invasive alternative.
Human blood is a suitable source of proteins and can be obtained in a relatively easy fashion. Both plasma and serum samples, obtained from whole blood, have been used in biomarker discovery studies. Serum resembles plasma in composition but lacks the coagulation factors. Although serum is preferred for many tests because the anticoagulants in plasma can sometimes interfere with the method, plasma seems to be more stable than serum and more suitable for analysis of the low-molecular-weight proteome. It has been reported by various authors that protein profiles obtained from plasma and serum differ and unfortunately at this time it would appear that insufficient information is available to decide whether serum or plasma should be preferentialized in MS-based proteomics studies aiming for biomarker discovery. While most studies have been carried out using serum, further research on this topic is required. A temporary solution would be to use both, however this would complicate data analysis and require longer processing times.
As is the case for all diagnostic tools in a clinical setting, MS based proteomic profiles should be precise and accurate, and the methodology needs to be robust and reproducible. Some critics have argued that discriminating peaks are influenced by various factors. Possible confounding factors can be categorized into three sources of variation and bias: biological variation, pre-analytical variation and analytical reproducibility. Examples of biological variation are race, age, diet, smoking, but also stress, drugs and general physical conditions [
It is now generally recognized that standardized sample collection is required for clinical studies [
The Human Proteome Organisation (HUPO) is an international scientific organization representing and promoting proteomics through international cooperation and collaboration by fostering the development of new technologies, techniques and training. (
Human body fluids such as serum are complex mixtures of salts, lipids, peptides and proteins. To carry out a repeatable and robust mass spectrometric analysis of proteins in body fluids, a clean-up or extraction procedure is required [
In the last decade, multiple studies have been carried out using magnetic beads as a method for offline serum peptide/protein capture [
The manual fractionation and processing steps are tedious and time consuming to perform. Automation ensures reproducibility and facilitates high-throughput performance necessary for large scale studies. In the last few years our study group developed a reliable automated technique that is specially designed for high-throughput sample handling,
Mass spectrometry (MS) is the method of choice for the analysis of proteins in serum [
As an alternative, surface enhanced laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight (SELDI-TOF) can be used [
Combined with magnetic bead fractionation, MALDI-TOF has higher throughput than SELDI-TOF and is more sensitive, as spherical particles have larger surface areas and higher binding capacity than chips. Thus, in SELDI-TOF more serum is necessary for analysis.
Next to standardized sample collection and preparation protocols, the data analysis is of major importance. In 2008, our group organized a competition on clinical mass spectrometry based proteomic diagnosis. Eleven international statistical groups participated and constructed a diagnostic classification rule for allocation of future patients on a blinded calibration set. This classification rule was then tested on a blinded validation set. A variety of statistical methods was used to create a classification rule. Mertens and co-workers described a method in which classification error rates were estimated and validated based on a classical Fisher linear discriminant analysis through complete double cross validation [
Several studies have used mass spectrometry (MS) on serum samples in an attempt to find biomarkers for early diagnosis of breast cancer using the SELDI-TOF [
However, the reproducibility of these results has been questioned. Li
All described differences can be due to modification of peptides or proteins from the moment of sample collection to freezing, which has been described [
Like in colorectal cancer, the size of the investigated groups was relatively small. Some studies found MS differentiated benign from malignant abnormalities [
Mass spectrometry has been applied for the development of tests for early diagnosis of CRC in several studies [
The aforementioned studies used discriminant analysis to discriminate between cancer patients and healthy controls. Interestingly, several peaks were repeatedly found in multiple studies signifying their potential as a biomarker. For instance, a peak at m/z ratio 8940 Da (identified as complement protein C3a-desArg) was found by Ward
However, the reason these techniques are being developed is for screening in patient populations where the
The first studies investigating the possibility of early diagnosis of breast and colorectal cancer with mass spectrometry did not include identification of discriminating peaks. Ideally, these would all be proteins produced by tumor cells only and secreted into the blood in sufficient quantities to be detected. The identification of discriminatory proteins has become an important element in recent studies and will be discussed below.
Identifying proteins is by no means simple and requires additional analytical tools. In the early days, MALDI-TOF mass fingerprinting was used for MS-based protein identification. To this end, a protein is enzymatically converted into peptides, typically with trypsin. Since the tryptic digestion is highly site-specific, the identification of at least two peptides allows identification of the original protein. This method, however, only works for purified proteins. Nowadays, the method of choice for protein identification is tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS or MS2). The tryptic peptides are first separated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) before performing MS/MS identification. The HPLC is interfaced with a tandem mass spectrometer through an electrospray ionization (ESI) source. So-called LC-MS/MS methods are highly suited and optimized for peptide sequencing. Sequencing experiments (
Only limited studies have identified biomarkers in MS studies for breast cancer. Li
One of the most frequently found potential biomarkers, C3a-desArg, is not a tumor secreted protein, but a component of the complement system. Elevation of this protein is therefore more likely to be a reflection of the body's inflammatory response activated by cancer. Interestingly, using serum ELISA testing of C3a-desArg levels, Habermann
Numerous studies have described favorable reports on serum protein profiling of breast and colorectal cancer patients. These studies used limited amounts of patients and were generally case-control studies. The fact that the control groups consisted of healthy people has made it impossible to determine whether discriminatory peaks are actually cancer-specific or only "disease-specific". It may be that peaks that are now seen as cancer-specific are in fact due to inflammation or obstruction caused by cancer. Further studies, not only including healthy persons, but also a control group representative of the general patient population, are essential to help to resolve this question. Unfortunately most reports lack detailed information regarding the control group used.
In addition, prospective studies are needed to determine the value of MS in clinical practice. However, before these can take place, more research needs to be done on the reproducibility and optimal handling and processing methods [
Studies on serum samples have identified several potential biomarkers. Most of the markers that have been identified so far were (cleaved) proteins that were present in the serum at relatively high concentrations,
In conclusion, several methods exist for the early diagnosis of colorectal and breast cancer. Current screening methods have disadvantages such as high-cost, be of an invasive nature, or offer insufficient sensitivity or specificity. Because of this, the search for a better diagnostic screening test for both these types of cancer is still ongoing. MS has recently been applied for identifying serum biomarkers and may lead to a relatively inexpensive (approximately 15 € per sample), minimally-invasive and reliable test, for early cancer diagnosis.
Several case-control studies have reported favorable results for diagnosis of breast and colorectal cancer. Comparing the reported sensitivities and specificities of the different research groups with current screening techniques, MS would appear to be very promising, however, screening results based on these groups, due to the increased

TOP STORY >> Lincoln upbeat on reform in visit
Leader senior staff writer
Sen. Blanche Lincoln, at the center of the current storm over health-care reform in the U.S. Senate, Thursday toured the Lonoke Exceptional School and Remington Arms with a Los Angles Times reporter in tow.
Political writer Mark Z. Barabak last tailed Maine Sen. Olympia Snow, who is also a key player the Senates health-care debate.
Lincoln, who faces reelection challenges amid declining poll numbers, toured the school, speaking with board members, staff and school clients, young and adult. She asked Exceptional School Director Janie Sexton questions about funding and services available to the center and its clients.
Later she discussed the health-care issue en route to Remington.
I think health-care reform is something we can do, she said. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has glued together a plan.
We dont know what the bill is. We need time to look at the Congressional Budget Offices cost analysis.
As she has throughout the debate, Lincoln said there were alternatives to the public option when it comes to getting people covered by health insurance, making insurance companies more accountable and holding down costs.
She said there were 500,000 uninsured Arkansans, including about 77,000 children, of whom about two-thirds should be eligible for ARKids First.
She said she wanted to fully use existing resources such as Medicare and Medicaid as opposed to recreating the wheel.
My worry is that a public option would be putting (the taxpayer) at risk, she said.
I think you can create in the market- place nonprofit co-ops and a nationwide plan allow states to form compacts, she said.
I think competition is the key. There is a risk of too much of an advantage for insurance companies to put less healthy people into a public option.
Lincoln, who met with former President Bill Clinton about health care last week, quoted him as saying this is a process. Youre not going to solve everything overnight. Dont let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Congressman Marion Berry and Congressman Vic Snyder supported the House version of the health-care bill, which passed 220 to 215 last week. Congressmen Mike Ross and John Boozman did not. Berry, Snyder and Ross are Democrats, Boozman is a Republican.
Berry explained his vote Thursday saying, The United States, as a people, spends twice as much on health care as any other country and our outcomes are about 37th (in the world).
A child born in Cuba today has a better life expectancy than a child born in America. (Were) not getting our moneys worth.
We cant possibly compete (worldwide) with twice as much health-care expenses as any other county.
Berry said he wanted to make sure that everyone legally in the U.S. has health insurance. That would lead to more timely diagnosis and treatment, and reduce the cost.
I was in the Clinton White House in 1993 and went through the same exercise. Not quite as volatile.
Berry said that while there were a lot of things in the bill that he didnt like, When you vote (down) a bill you lose the ability to have any more input into it. This is not the time to give up. That would have been the end of it and we would wait another 16 or 17 years, its such a toxic political issue.
I think well get (a health-care bill) and I think well get it before Christmas, Berry said. Its a test for the Senate and for Harry Reid, our leader. Its a difficult time to be in the Senate.

This alone will motivate the Dragons towards a better performance but they still need to make some structural adjustments. Let's take a look at what Steve Price and his men will have worked on.
Before you do anything in the NRL, it is important to carry the ball forward strongly in an attempt to get the opposition's defensive line retreating. Every single tackle in the game is a mini-battle for play-the-ball speed and the results of these battles are very important. If one team consistently dominates the ruck area with fast play-the-balls, they will win the game. It's that simple. Last week the Dragons were lacking in that area. Every time they played the ball Cronulla had their defensive line set which made the Dragons easy to defend. The remedy for this is a tougher attitude towards fighting in the ruck and support play.
While supporting the ball carrier is vital to making breaks and scoring tries, it also has a major part to play in ensuring good go-forward and play-the-ball speed. A player who carries the ball on his own will be gang-tackled and a slow play-the-ball will ensue. Carrying the ball with support, however, makes it harder for numerous defenders to join the tackle. This gives the ball carrier a better chance to win the battle of the ruck. In fact, carrying the ball with support and being prepared to pass just before meeting the defensive line makes gang tackling almost impossible. Getting a big man one-on-one with a defender in this fashion almost guarantees a victory in the ruck. The picture above shows Michael Weyman carrying the ball one-out last week. As you can see there are four Sharks defenders homing in on him because he is on his own.
All teams have their 'attacking shape' that they fall into once they get into a try scoring position. Attacking in this area is hard work if it is done correctly due to the effort required by continually returning to position (re-loading). All players should know exactly where they need to be positioned on every play. In the old days when a team got to the opposition's try line, the front-rowers would have a run and then stand out the back watching the rest of the set. Today, everyone has a role on every play. If a player has been involved in a play, as soon as the ball goes away from him he needs to re-load and be ready for the next play. Defensive structures are continually improving and it now takes more than a couple of hit ups followed by a set-play to score a try. Most sets will start in this fashion but it is what happens after the set-play that is most important. The best attacking teams have the ability to put on a good play, followed by a good play, followed by another good play. If you want to see this done well, watch Melbourne. Their players are shaped up and ready to go either side of the ruck on every play. It is then up to the key players to send the ball to the correct side at the right time. While normally very good in this regard, the Dragons were off their game last week. They were slow to re-load on the edges and they rarely put good plays back-to-back.
In league there is an old adage that says, ''you must go forward before you go sideways''. And while there are exceptions to every rule, last week's game was anything but an exception. When the Dragons failed to get the go-forward and play-the-ball speed dominance they required, they compounded things by trying to shift the ball regardless. The longer the game went the more the Dragons relied on passing the ball from side to side to conjure the points they needed. All the while, the Sharks defenders became more comfortable and confident in their sliding defence. Whether going around the Sharks was the game plan for the Dragons or it just panned out that way, we'll never know. But, at some stage during the 80 minutes they needed a change of tack. Somewhere along the way, Ben Hornby, Jamie Soward or coach Price needed to intervene and take the Sharks on in the middle of the field. Something tells me we'll see the Dragons do more of this tonight.

Rabbi Martin J. Pasternak, Director
1:1-14 — A list of the names (Hebrew, shemot) of 11 sons of Israel (Jacob) who came to Egypt with their families (Joseph was already in Egypt). The beginning of the enslavement and the affliction of the Israelites.
1:15-22 — Pharaoh's plot to kill all Hebrew males at birth and the heroic disobedience of the midwives.
2:1-10 — The birth of a son to a couple from the tribe of Levi. The baby was hidden by his mother for 3 months then placed in a water-tight basket in the river. He is watched by his sister until he is found by Pharaoh's daughter who raised him and, ultimately, named him Moses.
2:11-22 — Moses observed an Egyptian attacking a Hebrew slave and, seeing no witnesses, Moses killed the Egyptian. The next day Moses observed two Hebrews fighting and tried to intervene. Moses immediately recognized from the reaction of the attacker that his murder of the Egyptian was known. Fearful of Pharaoh's retribution Moses fled to Midian where he became a shepherd, married and had a son.
2:23-25 — The Israelites, suffering in their servitude, cried out. God heard them and recalled the covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
3:1-10 — Moses is serving as a shepherd for his father-in-law, the Midianite priest, Jethro. An angel of God appears to Moses in a burning bush and God speaks to Moses. In Moses' first prophetic experience God tells Moses that he will lead the Israelites out of Egypt.
3:11 — 4:17 — Moses expresses anxiety and doubt about his worthiness and ability to accomplish the task that God has chosen him for. God encourages and reassures Moses and gives Moses signs by which the Israelites will recognize that Moses is, indeed, God's messenger. Moses refuses God's assignment 5 times and God provides 5 counter arguments until Moses finally accepts the task.
4:18-23 — Moses seeks and receives permission from his father-in-law to return to Egypt to witness the condition of the Israelites. God advises Moses to return and he does so along with his wife and family. God instructs Moses as to how he is to act with Pharaoh.
4:24-31 — Tziporah, Moses wife, circumcises their son. God tells Aaron to meet with Moses and Moses tells Aaron all that God had revealed. Moses and Aaron assemble the elders of Israel and Aaron tells the elders what God had promised and show them the signs and the elders are convinced.
5:1-6:1 — Moses and Aaron's first confrontation with Pharaoh fails. Pharaoh retaliates by oppressing Israelites even more harshly. The Israelites blame Moses and Aaron for making their plight worse. Moses complains to God who reassures him that he will see what God will do to Pharaoh.
Selected Text
Moses said to God: "When I come to B'nei Yisrael and I tell them Elohei (the God of) your ancestors has sent me to you and they ask me 'What is His name?' What do I tell them?" God said to Moses: "Ehyeh asher Ehyeh, tell B'nei Yisrael this, Ehyeh sent me to you" God then tells Moses to "say to B'nei Yisrael, YHVH, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob sent me to you, zeh sh'mi l'olam, this is My name forever." (Ex. 3:13-15)
Bemoaning their fate by reason of the fact that that their family names had predetermined their destiny, Shakespeare has Juliet ask: "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet" (Romeo and Juliet II:1) While Shakespeare may have doubted that there is a connection between the essence of a person and his/her name, Jewish tradition has a different view.
"K'shmo ken hu, As one's name so is the person." (I Samuel 15:25). Our name reflects both how others view us and how we view ourselves. A midrash teaches that each of us has three distinct names: one that we are called by our parents, one that we are called by others and ehad mah she'karu lo b'sefer b'riyato, one that is a name of our own creation. (Kohelet Raba) Rabbi Yohanan went further and claimed that a person's name actually determines that person's destiny. (Berakhot 7b) Thus, in Jewish tradition, names are significant, we have many names and our names are a reflection of our reputation and character. Interestingly, we find that this is also true of God's names.
Sefer Shemot (literally, names) reminds us of the importance of names: peoples names, the names of places and even the name of God. In the famous story comprising Moses' first prophetic experience, the revelation at the burning bush (Ex. Ch. 3), Moses expresses serious doubts about his ability to carry out the task to which he has been assigned. Moses' inquiry (above) of God is: What is Your name? God's response was a most enigmatic one; however a close look may help provide an answer. "Ehyeh asher Ehyeh (I will be what I will be, or, perhaps, I am what I am) … say to B'nei Yisrael, YHVH, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob sent me to you, this is My name forever." (Exodus 3:13-15).
In next week's reading (Va'era) God tells Moses: "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as El Shaddai, but by my name YHVH I was not known to them." (Ex. 6:3) God's unique name, YHVH was, however, made known to the patriarchs (see Gen. 15:7, 28:13). What therefore does this statement mean?
Rashi notes that the verse (6:3) does not say that God did not make the name YHVH known to them but, rather, that the patriarchs did not know (fully understand and appreciate) the meaning of that name. God's name, YHVH, the name we never pronounce, refers to God's faithfulness in fulfilling promises. Thus, as Rashi notes, the patriarchs could not have appreciated this attribute since God's promiseshave not yet been fulfilled.
Additionally, the Tetragrammaton, YHVH, is known as the shem hovayah, the name of existence, of being. YHVH is related to the verb "to be." Thus, this unique name gives us a sense of God's essential nature: Gods eternal existence. The patriarchs did not fully appreciate this aspect of God.

The Tayside club have also written to the Scottish Football Association and the Bank of Scotland Premier League to confirm the appointment.
The Anglo-Italian hit the headlines in 1999 with a move to buy the Dark Blues, but his bid floundered amid a rash of bad publicity.
Di Stefano was prepared to defend the Serbian paramilitary chief Arkan against his indictment for war crimes before the warlord was assassinated in January 2000.
Arkan and Di Stefano co-owned the club Obilic, but the Northampton-based lawyer has since disposed of his interest in the 1997 Yugoslav champions.
Di Stefano, who is currently representing serial killer Harold Shipman, hopes to use his contacts in European football at Dens Park and has been tempted to invest some of his vast fortune in the club, although he would not reveal any figures.
"You just have to look at the place to know there is enormous potential and, hopefully, we can realise some of it."
Di Stefano's interest in Dundee was fostered after his son, Milan, became a supporter of the club during a spell at Gordonstoun - the same Scottish public school attended by the Prince of Wales.
Di Stefano has promised to renovate the dilapidated South Stand and turn it into a 'community project' within two
The stand, which still houses the home fans on benches, will be knocked down and replaced as a matter of priority and the new director revealed that he will personally stand as guarantor for the project.
He said: "In two years from now if you come back and speak to me there will be a new stand to replace the south stand.
"It is a matter of priority for me and I've already talked to the other directors about it and we want to make it a real community project.
"If I have to stand as guarantor for the project myself I'm happy to do that."

Effect of fenestration soft contact lenses on corneal oxygen availability
Efron, Nathan & Carney, Leo G. (1983) Effect of fenestration soft contact lenses on corneal oxygen availability. American Journal of Optometry and Physiological Optics, 60(6), pp. 503-508.
Recent clinical and experimental evidence suggests that a better physiological response to hydrogel lens wear can be obtained with fenestrations. To determine whether those observations could be attributed to increased corneal oxygenation, the equivalent oxygen percentage (EOP) was measured at the cornea of eight subjects wearing hydrogel contact lenses which had multiple fenestrations of 0.8 and 1.8 mm. It was possible to increase the mean EOP by 1.7 +/- 1.3% O2 (p less than 0.002) beneath a standard thickness lens using four 1.8-mm fenestrations. However, such lenses were uncomfortable to wear. Fenestrations that provided comfortable wear (0.8-mm diameter) did not significantly increase the EOP beneath standard thickness lenses (-0.1 +/- 1.0% O2, p greater than 0.1 for four fenestrations, and +0.2 +/- 1.2% O2, p greater than 0.1 for eight fenestrations) or ultrathin lenses (-0.1 +/- 1.3% O2 p greater than 0.1 for four fenestrations). It is concluded that fenestrations do not provide a clinically efficient means of increasing the oxygen tension beneath hydrogel contact lenses.

You're missing the point - you can't do this. In a properly configured
network, DHCP clients will never have a different mask from their
gateway. You can't give clients a /32 mask, their gateway IP would
then fall outside their subnet. You can't do a /30 without lots of
