Thumbs up: Was this the beginning of a new era at quarterback for the 49ers? At the very least, Monday night's impressive blowout of the Bears was a coming out party for Colin Kaepernick, who gave an impressive display of his ability and potential during the first start of his NFL career. Throwing down the field and emerging as a playmaker with his strong arm and quick feet, Kaepernick completed 16 of 23 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns for a passer rating of 133.1. He also moved well in the pocket, was sacked only once and didn't commit a turnover against a Chicago defense that led the NFL with 30 takeaways entering the game.
Thumbs up: A 4-for-4 start through the air on the game's first offensive series was a pretty good way for Kaepernick to begin his first start and loosen up a Chicago defense that wasn't prepared for such an early onslaught through the air. "I don't think they were expecting us to come out slinging like that," tight end Vernon Davis said.
Thumbs up: But Kaepernick's 3-for-3 showing on San Francisco's next drive was even prettier, with Kap dropping a well-thrown deep pass over Kyle Williams' shoulder for a 57-yard gain, followed on the next play by a 3-yard scoring strike to Davis, the first touchdown pass of Kaepernick's career.
Thumbs up: On his second touchdown pass – which turned the game into a rout at 27-0 early in the third quarter – Kaepernick displayed patience and nimble feet in the pocket when he looked right, looked left, danced away from trouble and bought time to find Michael Crabtree work his way open in the corner of the end zone for a 10-yard scoring strike.
Thumbs up: With Kaepernick behind center, Davis became a central figure in the passing game again, hauling in a season-high six receptions for 83 yards, including a 32-yarder on which Kap fit the football into a tight window between two defenders. Davis had just five receptions over a three-game span in October before catching four passes last week against the Rams. "Colin is The Man!" Davis exclaimed afterward. "It felt like somebody took the handcuffs off."
Thumbs up: Kaepernick guided the offense on four consecutive scoring drives on San Francisco's first four possessions, the first time that has happened for the 49ers since Jeff Garcia was at quarterback in 2002.
Thumbs up: You can contain one hard-charging Smith on the right side of San Francisco's defensive line, but it's pretty difficult to contain two at the same time as Justin Smith and Aldon Smith proved on Chicago's first third down of the game, when the Smiths overpowered the left side of the Bears' offensive line and Aldon Smith dropped quarterback Jason Campbell for a 10-yard loss. That would be an act that would be repeated several times in this game.
Thumbs up: It was all Aldon Smith on his second sack early in the second quarter, when Smith slammed into Bears left tackle J'Marcus Webb, tossed him aside and in one motion collapsed the pocket to bury Campbell again. Smith picked up his fourth sack coming from the right side in the third quarter, and he blew right tackle Gabe Cimini for half sack in the fourth quarter – with Justin Smith getting credit for the other half sack, his first of the season, on the play.
Thumbs up: Before all was said and done, Aldon Smith had dropped Campbell yet again in the end zone, forcing a fumble that was recovered by the Bears for a safety. That gave Smith 5.5 sacks for the evening, just behind Fred Dean's team record of 6 in a game set in 1983 against New Orleans. Smith took over the NFL lead with a career-high 15 sacks this season, moving past Von Miller of Denver, who has 13. Smith also finished with seven quarterback hits on Campbell and forced two fumbles. Wow.
Thumbs down: Since it negated a huge defensive play that would have taken the Bears out of scoring range, we might as well knock Smith for getting flagged at the end of a third-quarter sequence during which he was penalized for illegal use of hands. On a third-and-19, Ahmad Brooks sacked Campbell from behind and knocked the ball loose as it squirted backward and toward the sideline. Smith pushed a Chicago lineman in the back as the ball was rolling out of bounds at the San Francisco 49-yard line, and the resulting penalty nullified Brooks' sack and gave Chicago a first down at the San Francisco 26 instead of the Bears being forced to punt. Chicago scored its only touchdown five plays later.
Thumbs up: Yes, you could say the 49ers came out ready for this one. They held a 148-22 advantage in total yards after one quarter. The edge was even more dominant at halftime, when the Niners' edge was up to 249-35.
Thumbs up: The Bears went right at Patrick Willis in pass coverage twice on their second offensive series, and both times Willis made plays on the football, knocking it out of the hands of tight end Evan Rodriguez to force an incompletion on first down, then stepping in front of running back Matt Forte two plays later to force another Bears' punt.
Thumbs up: Willis and NaVorro Bowman were complete beasts on defense throughout the evening in one of the finest combined performances of their career, once again establishing themselves in the Monday night spotlight as the best pair of middle linebackers in the league. Bowman recorded a game-high 12 tackles and Willis had seven stops along with his prowess in pass defense as the 49ers limited Chicago to just 143 yards of total offense - the second-lowest total allowed in a NFL game this season.
Thumbs up: Kendall Hunter busting up the middle of Chicago's stout run defense for a 14-yard touchdown run was a punch in the gut to the Bears and also displayed both Hunter's quickness in cutting inside to make a defender miss and his power in carrying a different defender over the goal line after being hit at the 3-yard line.
Thumbs down: An unnecessary roughness penalty on C.J. Spillman on the ensuing kickoff didn't really matter much as the Bears turned over the football three plays later, but it did give Chicago starting field position at its own 41-yard line and was the first notable glitch in what had been a practically spotless all-around performance by the 49ers up to that point.
Thumbs up: Tarell Brown looked more like the intended receiver than Devin Hester when he perfectly read a sideline pass and broke decisively in front of Hester to smother Campbell's throw for his first interception of the season. Free safety Dashon Goldson later swooped in from center field and tip-toed the sideline on Campbell overthrow to grab his third pick of the season.
Thumbs up: Michael Crabtree looked more like a defender delivering punishing hits than a wide receiver absorbing them when he went over the middle on a slant pattern and bounced off safety Major Wright and cornerback Tim Jennings before being dragged down after a 20-yard gain deep in Chicago territory to set up a David Akers field goal.
Thumbs up: Every now and then, Carlos Rogers will get an opportunity to show everybody that he can deliver a big blow for a guy who's considered a cover corner. Rogers got that chance at the end of Campbell's scramble up the middle in the third quarter, when Rogers finished the play with a pad-popping lick that had the sellout crowd roaring its approval.
Thumbs up: When you can get one of the greatest return specialists in NFL history to run backward for a punt return of minus-9 yards – as the Niners did when they gang-tackled Devin Hester, who got caught going the wrong direction trying to elude them – that says a lot for coverage units that shut down Chicago's dangerous returner the entire game. The Niners also forced Hester to cough up the football on a fourth-quarter kickoff return – the Bears recovered the fumble – and limited to a minus-0.3-yard average on his three punt returns.
Thumbs up: The Niners picked the Monday night spotlight to once again show everybody that they can be a dominant team, even when playing against one of the best teams in the league. This one wasn't nearly as close as the final score and the Bears were overmatched from the first snap of the game forward. In the process, the 49ers won for the 43rd time on Monday night, tying the Dallas Cowboys for the most victories in that prime-time slot in NFL history.

We have studied the effect of simultaneous oral treatment of aqueous garlic extract (
There has been a significant application of metals in the various industries due to a general global increase in industrial activity over the past few decades. This in turn causes a great escalation of metal in the environment. Although some metals are essential to human health, these may act as toxicants when humans or animals are exposed to high concentration. In this regard nickel and chromium are considered potential health hazards although in some amount they are essential to human health. Both these metals are major components of stainless steel and their salts are used extensively in electroplating industries. After entering the body, nickel penetrates organs and accumulates primarily in bone, liver and kidney, being excreted in bile and urine [
As the previous studies showed that raw garlic is more beneficial than its other form [
Adult (aged 60–70 days) laboratory bred male Wister rats weighing 160 ± 5 g each were fed with laboratory stock diet and water
Mean ± SD values were calculated for each group. To determine the significance of inter-group differences, we analyzed each parameter separately. A one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by post hoc't' test was done to determine which of the groups differed among themselves. Duncan's Multiple Range Test was applied with the level of significance fixed at P < 0.05 [
Lipid is an important part of a healthy body because it is used to form cell membranes, several hormones and is necessary for other cellular functions. The various forms of lipids cannot dissolve in the blood and must be transported to and from the cells by low density and high density lipoproteins. High density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) tends to carry cholesterol away from arteries back to the liver. Therefore, high serum cholesterol level can be due to hepatic dysfunction.
Nickel and chromium induced rise in serum TC, LDL-C, VLDL-C and TG and fall in serum HDL-C in Group III and Group V rats may be due to changes in gene expression of some hepatic enzyme like HMG-CoA reductase (hydroxyl-methyl-glutaryl-CoA), which in turn depresses LDL-receptor gene expression [
Hence it can be concluded from the present study that both nickel sulfate and potassium dichromate adversely affect the serum lipid profile. Simultaneous treatment with garlic relatively improved serum lipid profile in nickel treated rats than its chromium treated counterpart.

Lots of feedback from the Monday preseason top 10 list to lead this week's mailbag:
From Justin in NYC: How could you possibly leave the Irish out of your way too early top 10 for 2009? Did you not watch the Hawaii Bowl? The Irish might have eight No. 1 draft picks on their starting line-up and Weis finally got rid of [offensive line coach John] Latina, the guy who had been holding everything back.
Feldman: I don't think it's so outlandish to leave a team that has gone 10-15 the past two seasons out of the preseason top 10. I did like what I saw in the Hawaii Bowl, although it wasn't like they blew up the scoreboard on USC or even BC in that game.
As I've said many times over the past year, I really like ND's receivers. That said, I'm not sure what you're basing the No. 1 picks thing on. I could envision freshman WR Michael Floyd and TE Kyle Rudolph eventually becoming first-rounders, but it's still a long way off, and on defense there just weren't any special players, although maybe some will emerge. As for John Latina, it obviously didn't work out with Weis in South Bend, but the guy had a pretty impressive track record for developing talent (Terrence Metcalf, Todd Wade, Marcus Johnson) before he came to ND.
I did give the Irish some consideration, though, because of the firepower on offense and because their schedule in 2009 is extremely favorable and schedule is a key factor. They play only four true road games. They get USC at home, and their next-toughest game is probably against Stanford. Plus, they face the two worst teams from BCS conferences, Washington State and Washington. If the Irish can improve their ground game and Clausen can become more consistent, it's hard to imagine they won't win at least nine games and probably 10 games. Then again, I never imagined they could lose to Syracuse at home, and I thought they'd win at least eight games in '08, too.
From Eric in Columbus: Aren't the Buckeyes missing or is this more anti-OSU bias coming from the media?
Feldman: I think OSU handled themselves pretty well against Texas, but the Buckeyes are losing so much to the NFL with their best two defensive players in James Laurinaitis and Malcolm Jenkins (along with LB Marcus Freeman), not to mention Beanie Wells' and both receivers' leaving. The O-line will be pretty green. Terrelle Pryor still is very raw as a passer, and working with inexperienced wideouts won't be easy. Top 25? Yes. Top 10? I'm not seeing it.
From John in Las Vegas: At South Carolina, hasn't it always been Stephen Garcia or bust? Chris Smelley has never proven to be much. And it doesn't really make a ton of difference if they can't get a line to block or a running game that ranks in the top 75. As coach Spurrier said during last season, Garcia gives us hope. But a competent running game would probably give Garcia hope.
Feldman: I agree with that to a certain extent, but from what I've been told, Spurrier has really no other viable options aside from Garcia this time around. There are no guys who have been in the program three or four years who know the offense. It's just Garcia, and considering how many quality players from their defense jumped to the NFL and that they're losing standout WR Kenny McKinley to the pros as well, that's a lot to put on a guy who has been very shaky.
From Kit in Billings, Mont.: What about Shonn Greene not making the top 10 list for bowl performances as he ran all over South Carolina for 121 yards and three scores and was the only player to eclipse 100 yards in all 13 games. Isn't that worthy of consideration?
Feldman: It is, and Greene had a great year. He got my vote for the Doak Walker Award. Still, I thought there were more noteworthy performances, and the guy I came closest to adding was UNC receiver Hakeem Nicks, who was spectacular against WVU, catching eight passes for 217 yards and three TDs, including the best catch of the bowl season.
From Sally in Charlotte: Why wasn't Riley Skinner included on the list? His 100% completion rate in the Eagle Bowl didn't qualify as a top performance? I'm sure it's because you don't consider that a "real" bowl or Wake a "real" football team. That's fine with us because we know Wake's team is much better than Notre Dame and Riley is significantly better than Jimmy Clausen, but the media will never admit that any more than they'll stop ranking the Big Ten.
Feldman: Skinner obviously was very sharp. I think Clausen's hitting on a lot more deep balls to me was even more impressive, though I see your point. And I do think Wake is a real team and I think even the most die-hard Notre Dame fan would concede that Wake was better than the Irish in 2008. Wake did beat a ranked team on the road (No. 24 FSU). Skinner also has been more consistent than Clausen, although the Wake QB is also 11 months older, and I suspect the Irish quarterback should have a big 2009 given the receivers he's throwing to and the aforementioned schedule he's facing.
From Donnie in Belpre, Ohio: Pat White was the finest HUMAN BEING ever to wear a WVU uniform. The fact that he was also the greatest player in the school's history is secondary. I wish Pat all the success in life that he deserves. I personally feel he will find success like his friend Steve Slaton, but if not, he has all the tools to do great things.
Feldman: I watched some of the Senior Bowl practices this week, and it looked like White acquitted himself pretty well as a QB. I suspect he will be drafted fairly high in April and someone will give him a chance to make plays for their offense as a change-of-pace quarterback/receiver/wingback.
From Michael in Los Angeles: To take you away from menagerie of football questions you're probably receiving, which school's pressbox would you say provides reporters the best spread (food) and which one have you attended where you've left and said "chips?" Food is almost as important as internet access to reporters.
Feldman: I did a little survey on this with about 15 college football writers who have traveled around quite a bit to weigh in on the food question. The school that got the most votes for good press box food was Texas, which has a local Tex-Mex place cater some quality fare. The brats served up at Wisconsin's Camp Randall Stadium also are a hit, as are BYU's Brazilian-cooked meats and the University of Memphis' BBQ.
The three schools that got the most votes for the worst: Iowa, Texas A&M and Notre Dame, although the Irish also got one vote for best food too.
• Dan Mullen's new staff at Mississippi State is cleaning up locally on recruits, reports David Paschall.
"Mullen was hired Dec. 11 and pledged to blanket the state, pointing out Mississippi is unmatched when it comes to per capita production of NFL players. 'Our top priority is taking care of these high-school coaches and junior-college coaches in the state to where they know they have an open-door policy here for full access to our program,' Mullen said. 'We will get in every high school in this state before we even worry about going anywhere else. We have to make sure those players know they have a home here and they have a place where they can represent their state university.'"
My three cents: Of ESPN.com's 15 top-rated players in-state, the only one committed to Ole Miss is kicker Andrew Ritter. Eight are committed to MSU, although the Rebels did get standout lineman Bo Tillman, a 6-7, 275-pounder who committed to Southern Miss last winter but didn't qualify and is expected to get cleared for 2009. Also, look for former blue-chip DB-RB Tig Barksdale, now at Hargrave Military, to end up in Oxford if he makes the grade academically. I'm curious to see how well Ole Miss closes in the next two weeks, given that the Rebs are coming off a great finish to a 9-4 season and they have one of the nation's best young QBs (Jevan Snead) to sell to young offensive prospects. That is a big chip to play. Word is they're in the mix for three very promising big wideouts in Marlon Brown, Patrick Patterson (he of the world's biggest hands) and Lamar Scruggs. Don't be surprised if they get Patterson and Scruggs.
• What is up with Devon Kennard, the nation's top-rated DE prospect and the son of former Dallas Cowboys OL Derek Kennard? The standout from Arizona assesses the pluses and minuses of his top three choices to WeareSC.com:
"I felt a real good home environment from Texas, it's a big program, a big state and it's an awesome opportunity. But if I went there, I would be leaving the Pac-10 and it's a little farther from home. That's pretty much the only negative there."
On USC, "It's very similar (to Texas), but it's closer to home. They have a really good coaching staff and a really good winning program. But you have to look at the coaching attrition and things like that."
And on Cal, "I really feel like I have a good relationship with the coaches at Cal. It's a good situation for me to walk into and the education there is obviously the awesome. All three schools offer a great education, but I think it's fair to say Cal has the best education system. But they want to alter my position to a 3-4 defensive end/linebacker type of deal. Cal is the only school to say I'm a 3-4 guy."
• There were lots of happy high school coaches in the northeast when BC elevated longtime assistant Frank Spaziani to head coach. Spaziani has epitomized to many of them what a great teacher was all about. He also made time for many of them who wanted to pick his brain in clinic settings. Adam Kilgore has more on him here in a story definitely worth checking out:
"For almost 40 years, Spaziani had been comfortable working in cramped assistant coaching offices, adhering to what a coach told him long ago: Do your job, do your job, do your job, and something good will happen. Most people get what they deserve. Spaziani recalled those words often. It was the first thing he thought after he became the head coach at BC Jan. 13, the position he wanted more than anything else.
"His new surroundings, if unfamiliar, signify the conclusion of a coaching odyssey for Spaziani, the 61-year-old son of blue-collar, first-generation Italian-Americans, the hollering, mustachioed coach who has prowled the Eagles' sideline wearing a visor, sunglasses, and a yellow towel draped over his left shoulder for the last 12 seasons. Spaziani could have left BC two years ago, figuring the school owed him the head coaching position after 10 years of service, figuring he had ably replaced Tom O'Brien as interim head coach and rallied the Eagles to a bowl victory, figuring a man deserves something more after he's coached at four colleges and in two countries."
• Perhaps there was a little backwash in the move of Auburn LB coach James Willis to archrival Alabama, writes Ray Melick:
"It's not likely Willis will be on the priority guest list for any Auburn alumni meetings any time soon. He may have a very good reason for crossing that very big divide that runs through this state, but even the Auburn people who agree that Willis was wronged by his alma mater aren't likely to forgive. According to several people close to the situation, a dispute arose when Auburn athletics department officials asked Willis to return the severance pay he'd received when Auburn fired him last month. Apparently the bean-counters didn't get Athletics Director Jay Jacobs' message that money would be no object in putting together Gene Chizik's new staff. Someone believed that when Willis was re-hired by Chizik after being fired along with the rest of Tommy Tuberville's staff that Willis should return the severance that was owed him under his prior contract.
"Willis didn't agree, believing that his being fired by Chizik and his being rehired several weeks later were isolated incidents, two separate contracts that were not related. It is difficult to believe that Auburn would risk losing Willis over an amount in the neighborhood of $50,000 to $80,000. Surely if Chizik really wanted Willis to stay, the two sides could have worked something out. While $80,000 is a lot of money to ordinary people, in the world of college athletics these days, anything less than $100,000 is treated like petty cash."
• With ace WR recruit Reuben Randle in Baton Rouge, this is a huge recruiting weekend for Les Miles, Glenn Guilbeau writes.
"Randle, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound prospect who could immediately impact the suddenly thin LSU receiving unit, leads a band of 14 prospects visiting LSU today through Sunday in the last major visit weekend for the class of 2009. Signing day is Wednesday, Feb. 4. Miles is so happy with his class that he performed the following gush last week after introducing his three new defensive coaches. 'This potentially has the opportunity to be an historic class -- one of the greatest classes ever,' he said. 'We think we have a class that can win a national championship, and certainly that's our intent. That's where we're headed. That's how we're approaching the back end.'"
Among the other visitors is fast-rising DE Sam Montgomery from South Carolina, who has been rumored in some circles to be a silent commit to Butch Davis and UNC.
• Oregon State seems to be doing very well in recruiting this winter, as it has landed Arizona wideout Markus Wheaton, who had been leaning to Oregon before the Ducks made some staff changes, reports Greg Biggins:
"'The two coaches that were recruiting me from Oregon were both let go,' Wheaton said. 'Coach Pfugrad was the receiver coach and Coach Gray was the one recruiting me. They were both let go and those were the guys I was really comfortable with.
"'Oregon State was always right there and it just felt good being there. I like that it's a small town and I love Coach Riley and the rest of the coaching staff. It's hard to explain but it just felt right at Oregon State. Like you get that special feeling about a school and that's what it was for me at Oregon State.'"
• DeWayne Walker couldn't get many JC transfers at UCLA, but he's going to have to load up this year at New Mexico State:
"'My strategy is to oversign,' Walker tells Graham Watson. 'And what that means is that if you have 18 scholarships, you sign 23 guys and out of that, those five extra scholarships are high school kids. So, if I sign 23, those five high school kids will have to sit out one semester. That's a way to catch up and to balance out your team with high school kids and then the advantage, too, is that now those kids get to participate in spring ball. And even if you need to redshirt some of them, you can have a greyshirt year and a redshirt year. So it's almost like a guy going on his mission. They get more experience and you can build your team gradually with high school players.'"
• Miami might get a visit this weekend from standout DB Greg Reid, who just recently learned he's actually related to another Canes recruit -- cornerback Jamal Reid, who is recruiting his relative, reports Manny Navarro:
"'We actually found out in late November that our granddaddies were brothers,' said Jamal Reid, who played against Greg Reid in the Under-Armour Game. 'Our families are originially [sic] from Jasper and we never knew it. Ever since then, we got each other's cell phone numbers and have been talking to each other. I'll call him every now and then to tell him he should be a Cane with me. I was supposed to be visiting Miami this weekend, but I changed it so we could come together on the 30th. Hopefully, he can come with me.'"
• Thanks in large part to the efforts of assistant Glenn Spencer, a Georgia native who spent more than a decade coaching in his home state, Oklahoma State is doing very well in the Peach State.
According to Scott Wright, OSU just landed D-lineman Ryan Robinson out of Georgia.
Robinson joins LeRon Furr and David Paulsen heading west from Georgia.
• With the commitment of tiny blazer Derrick Hopkins, USF keeps getting faster, writes Greg Auman:
"And yes, Hopkins has run against Florida freshman Jeff Demps -- they went head-to-head at last year's Florida Relays in Gainesville. 'I had him up until about 65-70 meters, and then he hit another gear,' said Hopkins, who ran a 10.43 that day; Demps ran a ridiculous 10.17 seconds."
• One-time Ohio State commitment Bradley McDougald, a safety from Dublin, Ohio, is set to play for Kansas.
• Kyle Whittingham's nephew Jason, a linebacker from Provo, has committed to stay close to his family and play for the Utes and is one of two guys with family ties to head to Utah, reports Lya Wodraska.

The national broadband network is counting on signing up about 200,000 households to its new satellite internet service across regional Australia at a cost of almost $10,000 a customer.
NBN Co chief executive
The deal, revealed in The Australian Financial Review yesterday, will see the government company own and operate two satellites to be launched in 2015 for remote consumers not connected by the NBN Co's optical fibre or fixed wireless networks.
Coalition communications spokesman
"So you have to ask yourself why has the NBN Co yet again decided to take the most expensive approach, the slowest approach?" he asked.
In an interview yesterday, Mr Quigley set a new target for regional and remote connections and insisted that leasing satellites would be inadequate.
NBN Co's corporate plan in December 2010 set a target of 106,000 connections by satellite by 2021. The target has been revised to 200,000.
Mr Quigley said NBN Co was using as much capacity as it could get by leasing services that provided download speeds of six megabits a second but could not be offered to more than 50,000 end users. "With these two new satellites we'll be able to provide 12 meg down, one meg up, at 10 times the capacity," he said. "We're leasing just about every piece of capacity that's available. There just isn't anything we can lease. It's not there."
The world's biggest satellite operator, Intelsat, backed the Coalition's arguments. While the European company does not build satellites, it owns and operates more than 50 and rents capacity to governments, companies and users around the world.
Corporate communications director Alex Horwitz said overseas experience showed renting satellite capacity was the best way of providing high-speed broadband access to rural communities.
"A satellite program to provide broadband should not be run by a government company," he said.
Mr Turnbull said the Coalition would "look at the options" on whether to change the contracts or even sell off the satellites but conceded there were limits on what he could do. "They are putting contracts in place and it may be that we will have to live with it," he said. He acknowledged that a Coalition government might have to honour the contracts signed with Loral and keep the satellites.

Commander Steve Swanson and Flight Engineer Reid Wiseman on the ISS answer questions from middle school students at INFINITY
Middle school students from Mississippi and Louisiana participated in an extremely-long distance call on Tuesday, conversing with NASA astronauts Expedition 40 Commander Steve Swanson and Flight Engineer Reid Wiseman while the astronauts orbited the Earth aboard the International Space Station, (ISS).
The students were all crowded into the INFINITY Space Center, located in Hancock County.
More than 300 fourth- through eighth-grade students from Hancock, Bay-Waveland, Long Beach, Nicholson, Picayune and Pearl River Central middle schools, and Boyet Junior High in Slidell took part in the event.
Selected students from each school submitted questions to the astronauts, which ran from "What do you eat?" to "Were you afraid?" to "How is your body affected while traveling in space?"
Prior to the 20 minute event, students reviewed the exhibits at INFINITY and had a scavenger hunt and lunch.
"Linking students directly to astronauts aboard the space station provides an authentic live experience of space study, the scientific comments from space travel and the possibilities of life in space," Paul Foerman, INFINITY public relations director, said.

I had my sons birthday at the centre the start of 2013 and it was great to see the centre looking fresh and bright. The children all had a great time! The staff and coffee was good. It is great that it didn't get shut down because it would of been a sad loss for the Ranges.

Happy Easter...from the Easter Bunny!
This year's Easter Bunny is Nancy Boyles from Playboy's Lake Geneva club. She competed in Playboy's first Bunny of the Year competition in 1970. She came in as third runner up but the Press Association photographers at the event voted her "most photogenic".
Sweet dreams!

Kelly Brook swimwear for New Look
It's a lovely sunny morning today in Surrey and what better way to enhance it than some lovely sunny pictures of the lovely Kelly Brook.
Here she is modelling New Look's latest swimwear range; which has a nineteen fifties inspiration to it. These are very flattering and should sell well, we predict. Which is exactly what we want so New Look will use her again.
These shots were taken in Miami earlier in the year with Kelly (whose size does vary) looking splendidly fulsome of figure at this point.
This is the fourth swimwear collection Kelly has "designed" for New Look, although we are not sure exactly what input she actually has into the creative process.

Carina Tyrell: Miss Cambridgeshire 2014
We haven't had a beauty queen on the Adventures of Triple P for some time so here is the lovely Carina Tyrell who won the Miss Cambridgeshire contest on Sunday. She will go on to the Miss England competition in Torquay in June for a shot at competing in Miss World.
Now usually a Miss Cambridgeshire wouldn't make the national press but Carina is a medical student at Cambridge University, so is far from the stereotypical dumb girl image of beauty queens. She is the first student doctor to qualify for the Miss England competition. The organisers are very excited about her participation as she certainly fulfills their "beauty with a purpose" motto. They say she has a good chance in the finals. If I were them I'd jolly well ensure she won in June. They're unlikely to get such good publicity from anyone else. I am sure the competition is all perfectly fair, however!
24 year old Carina is attending Murray Edwards college which, in Triple P's day was better know as New Hall. We travelled to Cambridge for the first time during our first year at Oxford to attend the birthday party of a school friend. At this party we hooked up with a nice young lady from New Hall whose name completely escapes our memory but whose curvy, petite body does not. A very different looking creature from the darkly elegant Miss Tyrell, anyway.
What an effective dress!
The last Oxford College (St Hilda's) went mixed in 2008 leaving Cambridge's Murray Edwards, Newnham and Lucy Cavendish Colleges as the only three women only university institutions in the country.
Carina has to fit her modelling around her studies and her work at Addenbrooke's hospital.
Nice waist to hip ratio!
What a splendid young lady she is! She could take our pulse any day.

One marauding run by Madjid Bougherra and all was forgiven. It was the Algerian defender, whose season has been more notable for events off the field, who set Rangers on course for victory with the cut-back that set up Kris Boyd for the first of his two goals.
Bougherra was recently reprimanded by the Rangers manager, Walter Smith, after returning late from international duty for a third time. He was subsequently involved in a training-ground fracas with Kenny Miller. He had not started a Premier League match since 26 September and many Rangers supporters have questioned his commitment.
After this win, Miller said: "What happened between us was only handbags, you get those arguments all the time. We are grown men and there are going to be disagreements through the season.
"Madjid is a massive player for us. He's one of our best players and a great asset for the club. That's why he's linked with transfer moves to here, there and everywhere. Maybe if you're two or three up you expect the centre-half to be overlapping on the right wing, but Madjid did it early on. He brings stability to the back four and we have missed him."
Boyd moved past 150 SPL goals with his second of the afternoon, a powerful finish after Miller turned supplier. Pedro Moutinho pulled a goal back for Falkirk before there was an element of controversy about the visitors' third, a Miller penalty. Although Darren Barr clearly fouled DaMarcus Beasley, it appeared that the Rangers substitute had handled the ball when gaining control.
Such doubts, however, could not disguise the superiority of Smith's team, who face a vital run of league fixtures, after a meaningless visit to Seville on Wednesday. Already eliminated from Europe, they have only pride to play for.
"We have let ourselves down in Europe this season," Miller said. "We could have been much better. We must put on a good performance in Spain as we'll have fans there to support us."
The annual general meeting tomorrow morning promises to be a more raucous affair, given the club's financial troubles.
Man of the match Kris Boyd (Rangers)

His personal physician, Dr. Hunter McGuire, noted his final words.
"A few moments before he died he cried out in his delirium, 'Order A.P. Hill to prepare for action! Pass the infantry to the
front rapidly! Tell Major Hawks' -- then stopped, leaving the sentence unfinished. Presently a smile of ineffable sweetness spread
itself over his pale face, and he said quietly, and with an expression, as if of relief, 'Let us cross over the river, and rest under
the shade of the trees." [18]
Captain James Power Smith who "all night long" kept his General "warmly wrapped and undisturbed in his sleep" would
also later write:
"And here, against our hopes, notwithstanding the skill and care of wise and watchful surgeons, attended day and night by wife
and friends, amid the prayers and tears of all the Southern land, thinking not of himself, but of the cause he loved, and for the
troops who had followed him so well and given him so great a name, our chief sank, day by day, with symptoms of pneumonia and some pains
of pleurisy, until, 3:15 P.M. on the quiet of the Sabbath afternoon, May 10th, 1863, he raised himself from his bed, saying, " No,
no, let us pass over the river, and rest under the shade of the trees"; and, falling again to his pillow, he passed away, over the
river, where, in a land where warfare is not known or feared, he rests forever 'under the trees.'"
The clock on the mantle in the picture above, which was also present when Jackson died, is the same used by Dr. McGuire to note the
time of his death. For years until the National Park service restored it to working order, it was set to 3:15 which was when Jackson
succumbed to the pneumonia likely resulting from the amputation of his arm seven days earlier.
Jackson's widow, Mary Anna Jackson, later recounted, "Tears were shed over that dying bed by strong men who were unused to weep, and
it was touching to see the genuine grief of his servant, Jim, who nursed him faithfully to the end."
to his passing, General Robert E. Lee said, "I wrestled in prayer for him last night, as I never prayed, I believe, for myself."
With a heavy heart, he sadly wrote to the men of his army:
General Orders
Hdqrs. Army of Northern Virginia,
No. 61.
May 11, 1863.
With deep grief, the commanding general announces to the army the death of Lieutenant General T. J. Jackson, who expired on the 10th
instant, at 3.15 p.m. The daring, skill, and energy of this great and good soldier, by the decree of an all-wise Providence, are now
lost to us. But while we mourn his death, we feel that his spirit still lives, and will inspire the whole army with his indomitable
courage and unshaken confidence in God as our hope and our strength. Let his name be a watchword to his corps, who have followed him
to victory on so many fields. Let officers and soldiers emulate his invincible determination to do everything in the defense of our
beloved country.

Gay Marriage Bill Wins Support Of French Lawmakers
Originally printed 2/7/2013 (Issue 2106 - Between The Lines News)
France's National Assembly has approved a key article of a controversial bill that would legalize gay marriage.
The measure, approved by a 249-to-97 vote Saturday, would drop the legal requirement that a marriage in France must be between two people of the opposite sex.
To become law, that measure must now be approved by France's Senate. That is expected to happen since President Francois Hollande favors the change.
However, the legislation also contains a measure that has been more controversial in the parliamentary debate, which began Tuesday. It would legalize gay adoption, and hundreds of thousands of supporters and opponents of the measure have held protests in Paris.
The parliamentary debate on the gay rights legislation is scheduled to be completed by Feb. 12.

Birmingham-Southern College's ranking climbs in newest U.S. News publication
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—Birmingham-Southern College climbed 14 places within the top tier of the Best Liberal Arts Colleges in the country in the annual U.S.News & World Report rankings released on the magazine's Web site today (Aug. 18). The printed version of the 2007 America's Best Colleges publication will hit newsstands Monday, Aug. 21.
Birmingham-Southern is ranked No. 74 among the 213 institutions included in the Best Liberal Arts Colleges category, which U.S. News tabs as its "national" category of liberal arts schools. It's the highest category such an institution can attain. The top 110 institutions are numerically ranked in Tier I, with the remainder listed alphabetically in either Tier III or Tier IV. The annual rankings publication also includes Birmingham-Southern among the top 16 liberal arts colleges in the nation in terms of least amount of debt of students graduating in 2005.
Birmingham-Southern has been ranked among the best national liberal arts colleges by U.S. News for 13 straight years.
The college was recognized by U.S.News & World Report as the No. 1 Regional Liberal Arts College in the South Region in 1987, the third year the rankings were published. The following year, the college's classification used to compile the rankings was upgraded from RegionalLiberal Arts College to Liberal Arts College (national). Since then, the college's ranking has improved from Tier IV of this category to its current inclusion in Tier I.
Colleges in the Liberal Arts Colleges (national) category emphasize undergraduate education and award at least 50 percent of their degrees in liberal arts disciplines.
Birmingham-Southern is a four-year, private liberal arts college founded in 1856 and affiliated with the United Methodist Church. The college celebrated its 150th anniversary during the most recent academic year.

Viral Video For "Cloverfield 2"?
While "Cloverfield 2" hasn't been officially announced the video you see above is making some serious buzz in connection to the would-be sequel. There isn't much to the clip but you get to see what might be the same sort of attack you saw in the original movie happening overseas. Of course this will probably turn out to be some snot nose kid's video project and we'll all end up looking dumb, but until then we'll all just have to speculate.
Take a look for yourself and post up your thoughts.

Mumbai: The hottest buzz in the film industry of Bollywood is that a new love story has began between two of the hottest celebrities of the moment – John Abraham and Deepika Padukone. If we are going to believe the rumors, the two really started to hit it off during the filming for the movie 'Desi Boyz' in London.
Everyone has started to notice just how much the two actors have started to enjoy each other company, so we can only assume that something serious is cooking between them two. Many sources have said that there is definitely something romantic between John Abraham and Deepika Padukone, link which took place during the shooting of Rohit Dhawan's movie.
Plus, it seems that the link they shared started to grow stronger and stronger each day also because they had drifted apart from their partners at that time. Deepika Padukone was seen on several occasions without Siddhart Mallya, while super star John Abraham and the actress Bipasha Basu have confirmed their separation and have moved on.

They say "break a leg" in Hollywood. Well, Halle Berry came close in Spain yesterday after an accident that resulted in her being wheeled out of the hospital in a cast.
The actress broke her foot after taking a misstep. TMZ reports, "she heard a crack and then felt the pain." The unfortunate injury is causing problems for the movie she's currently filming, Cloud Atlas, which also features Tom Hanks, Jim Sturgess, Hugo Weaving, Susan Sarandon and Hugh Grant.
According to sources working on the film, "the immediate plan is to shoot around her" and that will include a combination of filming Halle from the waist up, using a stunt double, and shooting scenes in which the actress doesn't appear.

The General Service List is a list of roughly 2000 words published by Michael West in 1953. The words were selected to represent the most frequent words of English and were taken from a corpus of written English. The target audience was English language learners and ESL teachers. To maximize the utility of the list, some frequent words that overlapped broadly in meaning with words already on the list were omitted. In the original publication the relative frequencies of various senses of the words were also included.
The list is important because a person who knows all the words on the list and their related families would understand approximately 90-95 percent of colloquial speech and 80-85 percent of common written texts. The list consists only of headwords, which means that the word "be" is high on the list, but assumes that the person is fluent in all forms of the word, e.g. am, is, are, was, were, being and been.
Researchers have expressed doubts about the adequacy of the GSL because of its age and the relatively low coverage provided by the words not in the first 1000 words of the list (Engels, 1968). Engels was, in particular, critical of the limited vocabulary chosen by West 1953, and while he concurred that the first 1000 words of the GSL were good selections based on their high frequency and wide range, he was of the opinion that that the words beyond the first 1000 of the GSL could not be considered general service words because the range and frequency of these words were too low to be included in the list. Recent research by Billuroğlu and Neufeld (2005) confirmed that the General Service List was in need of minor revision, but the headwords in the list still provide approximately 80% text coverage in written English. The research showed that the GSL contains a small number of archaic terms, such as shilling, while excluding words that have gained currency since the first half of the twentieth century, e.g. plastic, television, battery, okay, victim, drug, etc.
The GSL evolved over several decades before West's publication in 1953. Contrary to popular belief, the GSL is not a list based solely on frequency, but includes groups of words on a semantic basis (Nation & Waring, 2004; Dickins). Today there is no version of the GSL in print; it only exists in virtual form via the Internet. Various versions float around the Internet, and attempts have been made to improve it (Bauman, 1995). However, for practical purposes, one of its most accessible formats exists in the Compleat Lexical Tutor web site created by Tom Cobb, where it can be viewed, downloaded or used for vocabulary profiling of texts. The headwords and family members in this version of the GSL conform to Bauer and Nation, level 6.
The Classic Vocabulary Profiler, produces output in coloured form—blue for K1 (the first 1,000 words of the GSL), green for K2 (the second 1,000 words of the GSL), yellow for Academic word list, and red for words that are not in any of the lists.
For other types of reading different lists may be required. For example when reading texts in the academic genre, a person may wish to consult the Academic word list. For students studying English as a foreign language, a person may wish to consult the BNL2709 and use the BNL profiler at the Compleat Lexical Tutor web site.
External linksEdit
The actual list, along with a more detailed discussion is available here
Heatley, Nation, and Coxhead have made their RANGE and FREQUENCY programs available for download and include the GSL and the AWL as TXT files for vocabulary profiling.
An extended version of the General Service List in Excel format produced by Dickins (http://www.languages.salford.ac.uk/staff/dickins.php) can be found on [1].
This provides in a manipulable format all the information in the General Service List, plus a semantic-field categorisation of each entry using the categories in the Longman Lexicon of Contemporary English(LLCE) by Tom McArthur (Longman, 1981). This latter allows entries to be ordered or extracted according to semantic categories. Details of the LLCE categories can be found on the same webpage. The full categories for the extended version of the General Service List are as follows:
- Line numbering (order in which entries appear in the printed version of the General Service List);
- Headword as given in the General Service List;
- Lemmatized headword, i.e. standard dictionary-type headword;
- McArthur category;
- Word-class;
- Word count 1, as given in the General Service List;
- Word count 2, 'raw' word count without additional information given in the General Service List;
- Percentage scores for occurrences of words in a particular sense in the General Service List;
- Word-in-sense frequency;
- Source of information (given throughout as GenSerList);
- Meaning (as given in General Service List).

In 1995, Ted Turner's World Championship Wrestling presented a program entitled Monday Night Nitro. The show was aired on TNT and was presented as competition to the recently un-opposed Monday Night Raw that was produced by Vince McMahon of the World Wrestling Federation. The stars of the WWF at the time included Yokozuna, Bret Hart, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, all for the most part relatively young. The stars of WCW included Lex Luger, Sting, Ric Flair and the WCW Champion, Hulk Hogan, all who were grizzled veterans of the sport at the time. The fight between Raw and Nitro would produce the greatest time to be a wrestling fan for sure. The Monday Night Wars, mixed with a little bit of Paul Heyman's Extreme Championship Wrestling, allowed every fan of wrestling to watch an alternative, something that is greatly missed today. The WWF, WCW and ECW staged weekly battles, though the WWF and WCW were the center stage promotions. Over the course of six plus years, many memorable moments would come out of these battles. Kevin Nash and Scott Hall abruptly left the WWF to join WCW. Hulk Hogan, the greatest face of all time became a heel and aligned himself with Hall and Nash to form the n.W.o. At the same time, a budding young star named Steve Austin had recently won the King of the Ring Tournament and was on the road to superstardom. WCW staged battles for the WCW Championship with big named talent whereas the WWF was showcasing lesser known but more talented stars in the main events. Nitro and the WCW rose to stardom and nearly put Vince McMahon's WWF out of business.
A "Murphy's Law" scenario occurred where during the 84 week long winning ratings streak by Nitro, WWF suffered some near fatal blows. At the 1997 Summerslam, Owen Hart defended the Intercontinental Title against challenger Steve Austin. Austin was quickly becoming the most popular star in the company. During an exchange in the match, Owen countered a gut wrench and hit an inverted Tombstone Piledriver. The move was botched and Austin would be near motionless for most of the remainder of the match. Austin would wind up finishing the match, weakly rolling up Owen Hart for the victory and the championship. Several officials helped Austin after the match. Clearly there was an issue when Austin held the Intercontinental Title above his head and quickly dropped it. Austin suffered a serious neck injury and was forced to sit out for several months. Perhaps the move that could have really killed McMahon's promotion occurred at the 1997 Survivor Series pay per view in Montreal Quebec, Canada. The main event would feature the proud Canadian Bret Hart defend the WWF Title against Shawn Michaels. There was a lot of build up to this match that was not seen on television. For one, Hart and Michaels did not like each other and still aren't fond of one another these days and that's putting it mildly. Secondly, Bret Hart's contract was expiring. Hart was under the impression that he had signed a 20 year, $20 million deal to stay with the WWF pretty much for life. At the same time, WCW was offering Hart a deal somewhere around three years, nine and a half million. So Hart was willing to stay for a lot less money. Suddenly, Vince McMahon told Hart to take WCW's offer because he couldn't afford to pay him. Hart was still the champion and decided that he would take WCW's offer but told McMahon that he was still loyal to the company, but he did not want to drop the title to Michaels. McMahon was afraid because several years earlier, Madusa, who was Alundra Blayze in the WWF and the WWF Women's Champion, took the belt over to Nitro and dumped it in the garbage can on live TV. McMahon feared that Hart would do the same thing, ignoring Hart's loyalty. Hart had agreed with McMahon for the finish of the match. Michaels would lock Hart in Hart's finisher the Sharpshooter. Hart would then trip up Michaels and reverse the hold, locking Michaels in the Sharpshooter. Triple H would then hit the ring and cause the DQ as members of the Hart Foundation would hit the ring. From there, many ideas were thrown around for Hart to lose the belt. One rumor that I heard was for a Fatal Four Way Match at the December pay per view Degeneration X that would feature Hart defend the title against Michaels, The Undertaker and Ken Shamrock. Michaels would pin Shamrock, win the title and Hart would be in WCW. Things didn't go according to plan however and the "Montreal Screwjob" occurred. Hart destroyed equipment at ringside, painted the letters "WCW" with his hands and the most memorable part of all, spit on Vince McMahon immediately. Bret, his brother-in-law Davey Boy Smith and Jim Neidhart all left the WWF after this.
The WWF was falling apart but towards the middle of 1998, things began to change. WCW was becoming a circus act, as the older veterans would refuse to let the younger guys get over. The main draw for WCW in 1998 was Bill Goldberg. Meanwhile Steve Austin had defeated an injured Shawn Michaels for the WWF Title at WrestleMania 14 that would be Michaels' last match with the company until 2002. Anyway, there was a power struggle within the WWF between Austin and McMahon. The 84 week ratings streak came to an end when Raw televised Steve Austin vs. Vince McMahon. Dude Love interfered and the match never got off but the WWF finally won a round. WCW's last ratings win came when Bill Goldberg put his undefeated streak on the line against Hulk Hogan for the WCW Title. Goldberg defeated Hogan and won the Title. From that point on, WCW was on its way out and the WWF would begin to trample them. The WWF created new stars in Steve Austin, The Rock, The Hardy Boys, Kane, Edge, Christian and expanded the credibility of their older stars like The Undertaker and Triple H.
In the early part of 2001, the wrestling world would take a turn for the worse. In January of the year, ECW presented their final show, a simple live event that ended with the roster saluting the fans while drinking beer and bitter enemies in The Sandman and Justin Credible embracing each other. Meanwhile World Championship Wrestling presented their last show on March 26, a Nitro telecast that featured the United States Champion Booker T win the WCW Championship from Scott Steiner and Sting defeat his greatest rival, Ric Flair. Shane McMahon also appeared on the show and said that he owned WCW not Vince McMahon. This appearance was the beginning of the Invasion angle, one that made a lot of money for Vince McMahon but in essence blew his credibility out the door. Indeed the closing of WCW and ECW left the wrestling world in bad shape.

Ninja Theory must have thought the old title really wasn't cutting it, and I can't really blame them for it. Hellblade does sound like a Ninja Theory game, but it didn't reflect the new direction they were going for with this one.
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice [official site] should more accurately reflect the two souls of their work-in-progress, pairing their typical hack-and-slash action with an uncommon attention spent on accurate portrayal and characterization of mental health issues. The new trailers lets us listen in on Senua's inner monologue.

|really good route for trying to break into easy 12. actually, for the tower it is probably the perfect route for doing so. it is pretty short, most of the climbing is easy, the crux is only about 15 feet of straight forward climbing that is easier than it looks. the left wall is lichen covered, but fortunately quite grippy. you can place great stoppers that don't interefere with the locks. the crux is probably just taking the pain of the locks. surprised it doesn't get more traffic, i think the published grade kind of keeps folks off it.

The comedian would slip in the fictional sleuth role made famous by Morgan Freeman in 'Kiss the Girls' and 'Along Came a Spider'.
Actor/director Tyler Perry has signed up to play famed fictional sleuth Dr. Alex Cross in a new movie. The character, created in James Patterson's crime novels, has been immortalized on the big screen by Morgan Freeman, who played the role in 1997's "Kiss the Girls" and 2001's "Along Came a Spider".
Perry has now agreed to take Freeman's place in a new film, which will be helmed by "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" director Rob Cohen. The movie is reportedly titled, "I, Alex Cross".
British actor Idris Elba had previously signed up to play Cross in a different adaptation, which is currently on hold, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

I have 30$ on paypal and transfering to my bank account takes 3-4 bussiness days... But my parents are gone for today and I'm starving -_____________-
Is there any online place I can order food with paypal?
If you have a credit card you can just order pizza, and order Chinese food... 30 bucks isnt gonna be much if ur trying to get stuff delivered.
Zam I have a debit sadly... and the money I put in already isn't getting processed till wednesday :/ and 30 is enough for me . I usually get papa johns and it comes out to 20 bucks with tip.
And Papa John's hasn't accepted paypal in like a year already sadly..
I already searched online, that's why I'm asking you guys. Hopefully someone has something... Brooklyn doesn't even have a pizza hut :(
Paypal discontinued their virtual debit card... so that's out of the question too -_______-
where state do u live in
lol go ask ur parents to use their cc or ask a friend and order pizza pay them back theres not really many places that deliver.... or better yet why dont u just buy a $25 credit card with the 30 and order dominos using that?
Zam can you link me to where I can buy a 25$ prepaid please? I don't like asking friends to pay them back cause it's not a good position to be in :P
Ask you parents if there's money in the house? They probably have something.
You are a FAGGOT!!!
@Zam Thanks. I'll make a black market thread :)
Just make something. There must be food in the fridge/pantry.
It's empty. My mom is going through a really bitchy phase right now, so she's not buying food until I get a job even though I'm only 16.
I usually just ask my dad for like 20$ daily but NOONE is home.

Wired's Star Wars issue: article after article...
Wired magazine published a special "Star Wars is back!" (did it ever leave?) issue today, and with it comes a large amount of quality Star Wars content on Wired.com. I haven't read it all yet, and probably never will (I do have a day job...) but here's a quick rundown.
Star Wars—the Fandom Editors by GeekDad's Nathan Barry is a great overview of the best fan-made remakes and documentaries, including a Star Wars "despecialized edition" in HD, a Star Wars Revisited that keeps the good special edition additions and dumps the junk, and Jamie Benning's awesome Star Wars Begins fanumentary.
74 Things Every Great Star Wars Movie Needs by various contributors is an amusing list of op-eds highlighting some of the ingredients that went into the good Star Wars movies, such as Mystery, Music, Flaws and Funny Droids.
Inside the Battle of Hoth is a jokey piece about how badly the Empire bungled its invasion of Hoth. I found it a bit long and dull, myself, but I've already had e-mails from several people saying they liked it. Follow the link and decide for yourself.
Star Wars Revolutionized Special Effects Twice; Can It Do It Again? by Jason Mitchelitch reviews the special effects of the original trilogy and prequels and considers what more might be done. The conclusion: probably not much.
There's more than just this on Wired.com. Or you can download the magazine itself onto your tablet here.

Like many Pagan parents, I do not live in a solely Pagan household. When you factor in extended families, it becomes incredibly rare for a child's entire family to be Pagan. This can definitely create some issues, especially for those with families who don't accept Paganism as a legitimate and positive religion.

By Janice Lloyd, USA TODAY
Fear of swine flu in the early days of the outbreak sent people racing to grab up antiviral drugs just to feel safe, and that has caused concern among experts who worry about the virus developing drug resistance.
H1N1 is susceptible to two antivirals, Tamiflu (oseltamivir) and Relenza (zanamivir), which are helpful if taken within several days of having symptoms, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.
1st AMERICAN DEATH: Swine flu claims teacher in Texas
INTERACTIVE MAPS: Tracking the global, U.S. spread of virus
In the week after the USA had its first cases, new antiviral prescriptions at retail pharmacies were 19 times higher than in the previous week, health care information company SDI said Tuesday.
Shortage of the medications isn't a concern at this point. Richard Besser, acting director of the CDC, said last week that no reports of shortages were expected in any states.
And there are encouraging signs that the strain causes mostly mild cases of the flu.
Still, officials caution that there is a lot to learn about the strain, and no one can predict what might happen if it returns in the fall and how severe it might be if it does.
Harvard researchers warn that widespread use of one of the antivirals would risk creating a resistant strain of the flu and make it difficult to halt its spread. Experts say the medications should be reserved for only the very ill or people with severe immune deficiencies.
"We had a story here about a pharmacy that had 500 doses, and it cleaned them out," Charles Ericsson, an infectious-disease expert at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, said last week. "Too many people are the worried well. No one can guarantee you zero risk, but I'm afraid the worried well might be looking for zero risk."
Some consumers are buying the drugs online, which also worries physicians and pharmacists.
"We encourage people to not buy drugs online," says Paul Juang, assistant professor of pharmacy practice at St. Louis College of Pharmacy. "It is essential to see physicians and that physicians continue to test people that meet the CDC case definition to define the burden of influenza in the community."

Extensive menu, you are sure to find something you like. Food and service are both very good. Spring rolls, ginger chicken & beef w/vegetables were all excellent. Wine prices are reasonable with a very nice selection. Highly recommend if looking for Chinese restaurant.
Great place, nice people and delicious food. These are a few words that could describe Panda Restaurant. I truly recommend it.
One great chinese restaurant. The food is delicious, the service is great and you will have a great time there. I will come here more often.
This is definitely the best Chinese restaurant. A must go. Good things about it: Reasonably priced set menus Awesome view Delicious food Good services The only drawback is the air conditioning is a bit too strong. Tea get cold easily.
I have been here for take out at least five times, the staff is always fantastic and the food is fresh and delicious. Wonderful!
Disgusting! We ordered take-out and got the General Tsaos chicken which had a very strange plastic smokey taste. I had sat down to eat and heard my sister scraping the friend rice into the trash because there were long spider legs in it!

I had a night with friends staying home and watching a movie when we decided to order Chinese food. We ordered 3 dinner meals. We waited an hour and twenty minutes until it was delivered. The delivery driver didn't knock or ring the doorbell; he just turned the handle and walked in!! It scared us all. Then we only got 2 of the 3 meals we ordered. When I called and complained, the woman on the other end handed the phone to another woman (possibly a manager) who spoke better English. She apologized and stated if i wanted to make another order for the third meal she could give me a discount. I stated that I'd be more than willing to pay full price if they could just have it delivered in 20 minutes. I live 20 blocks away from the restaurant and this call was placed at 8:45pm, it would only take 10 minutes for delivery. The woman stated she didn't have control of the drivers and that she could guarantee a 45-1hr delivery time but not 20 minutes. I mentioned that its a business and they should have control of their staff. I then told her that if it took more than 20 minutes, I couldn't guarantee I?d pay them. I was not going to wait two and a half hours after my first initial phone call to eat dinner. Very poor customer service and I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN and should suggest the same to everyone.

We eat out every weekend. This is the only Chinese restaurant we eat at since the Bear Paw in Eagle River changed ownership. They should put more tofu in the hot and sour soup and they should let you know how large their portions are. I meal can feed 2 people. Don't even think about getting soup an entree and egg roll you can't eat it all
While the atmosphere may not scream fine dining, this comfortable, family-friendly, restaurant is by far the best Chinese food option in Alaska. They are consistently satisfying with fresh, hot, entrees, good service, and fair prices. They've been voted top 10 if not the BEST place to dine by Press Picks, Anchorage Daily News, and even by U.S.A. Today! You will not be dissapointed.
