Springer and the International Society of Cellular Oncology (ISCO) will collaborate to publish Cellular Oncology starting this year. Cellular Oncology is the official journal of ISCO and publishes original papers and reviews on the latest advances in cancer research. It was previously published by IOS Press.
Cellular Oncology publishes scientific contributions from biomedical and clinical disciplines involved in basic and translational cancer research on the cell and tissue level, technical and bioinformatics developments in this area and clinical applications. A major goal of the journal is to translate the latest developments from the research laboratory into routine patient management. Cellular Oncology thus provides a platform of scientific exchange between molecular biologists and geneticists, technical developers, pathologists, oncologists and other clinicians involved in the management of cancer patients.
Cellular Oncology will be available electronically, and in print, on www.springerlink.com, and six issues per year will be published. Features include Online First™, Cross Reference Linking, Electronic Supplementary Material and Alert services.
Professor Gerrit Meijer of the VU University Medical Center in Amsterdam, the Editor-in-Chief of the journal said: "That Cellular Oncology is now being published by one of the top-ranking publishers is excellent news for the authors who will now reach a much wider community of scientists as well as for an expanded readership, that may not have had access to the journal before. For the editorial team this is an exciting development since wider exposure and the publisher's professional approach provide excellent opportunities for achieving the ambitious goals of Cellular Oncology."
Evelin Schröck, President of the ISCO, said: "The International Society for Cellular Oncology aims to provide excellent communication platforms for scientists working in the field of biomedical oncology research. That the journal of the society now will be published by Springer strengthens this objective. ISCO looks forward to a fruitful and long-lasting collaboration with Springer."
Peter Butler, Editorial Director at Springer, said: "We are delighted to be partnering with the ISCO to publish such a highly-ranked journal. We look forward to working with Professor Meijer and his Editorial team to further develop Cellular Oncology, bringing the journal to as wide an audience as possible".
The International Society of Cellular Oncology aims to advance science in investigative and diagnostic cell pathology in cancer and other diseases. ISCO's mission is to provide a forum to share research, technologies and ideas; to promote collaboration between researchers worldwide; and to provide education on the latest advances in the field.

Friend of Doug digs deep against SoccerCity
Mission Valley developers pour cash into San Diego State measure
Matt Potter 6 p.m., Nov. 21
Southwestern College, the Sweetwater Union High School District, and the Chula Vista Elementary School District, all located in the South Bay, have several school-board seats up for grabs in a few days. The level of campaign contributions received by candidates at Southwestern and Sweetwater is considerably higher than the contributions in the elementary school district. Could it be because of bond money?
Southwestern College is currently spending $389 million of Proposition R funds approved in 2008 and $120 million that remains from Proposition AA, approved in 2006.
One of the most contested races in the Southwestern College district is between Yolanda Salcido, the president of the board, and Norma Hernandez, former president of the college. In Salcido's most recent campaign-donation filing (covering the period of October 1–16), Seville Construction Services, the company managing Southwestern's bond money, donated $7500. The majority of the $57,250 picked up in this period is from contractors or is contractor-related. Salcido has received a total of $102,598.
Salcido's opponent, Hernandez, received no donations from contractors in the last filing period. Her two largest donors during the first half of October were Pacific Spanish Network, which gave $5000, and San Diego PAC, which gave $2000. She has received a total of $40,001.51.
Voters approved Proposition O in 2006, which gave Sweetwater Union High School District $644 million to use for construction and reconstruction. Incumbent Sweetwater boardmember Jim Cartmill and Karen Janney, a retired educator, are waging a fierce battle.
The Seville Group Inc., which is managing the Prop O construction, gave Cartmill $20,000 on October 2. Most of the $34,884 collected in this period came from contractors. Cartmill's total to date is $85,970.
Cartmill's opponent, Janney, has altogether $40,638. No contractor donations are listed in her latest filing. The majority of her donations were for $100. Her highest donation was $5,625.46, from the Sweetwater Education Association PAC.
The Chula Vista Elementary School District is not working with any bond money. The Union-Tribune reported on October 18 that "incumbents Larry Cunningham, Douglas Luffborough and Pamela Smith — who are running as a team — have collected a total of $7,000." The same article reported that Nick Segura, the challenger with the most campaign donations, had raised "nearly $5,000."
Pictured: Jim Cartmill
Between the Sweetwater Union High District and Southwestern College, there's over $1 Billion dollars in construction bonds available in Chula Vista. Contractors with current contracts with these institutions have contributed nearly $200,000 to candidates in the Sweetwater Union High School District alone. Of 34 contractors working on the Montgomery High School Prop O bond contract, only 2 are from Chula Vista and very few are from San Diego County. Chula Vista residents are paying taxes on these bonds to keep citizens from other cities throughout the state and country employed. These tax dollars should be supporting our students and families to the maximum extent possible and reasonable. Shame on the candidates who have taken campaing contributions from contractors with current contracts. While it may not be illegal these candidates should realize they have not taken the moral/ethical high ground and this sends a very disturbing message to the people they are elected to represent.
The U/T has done, by my count, two articles recently on this subject as it relates to contractor's giving large sums to their candidates of choice for the SUHSD Board of Trustees. The most recent article:
Goes to greater length specifically on the SUHSD campaign contributions. I think it is important to note that there appears to be a strong slate where contributions are given by contractors to Cartmill, McCann & Ricassa, while the other three strong challengers seem to be getting a lot of their contributions from employee unions.
An interesting point related to all this campaign money is that in the Chula Vista elementary school district the starting teacher's salary is $35,000 and in the Sweetwater district the starting teacher's salary is $40,000.
It's interesting to think about all the ways this campaign money might have enhanced students' education.
Having read the articles above and the comments therein, it seems only appropriate that we (the voters) should institute term limits for starters for ALL ELECTED positions AND secondly, prohibit donations from any contractor who expects to participate in or compete for bids offered by the School Districts and/or College. If companies donated solely out of the kindness of their hearts, with no intentions of future bids for district / college work – great, we should note no decline in their campaign contributions. IF however such ordinance, rule, regulation is enacted AND a significant reduced donation level is noted, then we'll know for sure that the companies donated in hope of achieving a specific gain. The Voters can have no part in such games of illusion where a pay for play kind of scenario is displayed.
Reply #1-#4 It is apparent to me and many others that the Money has replaced Education, as the most important thing in this election! I agree with dwalden that term limits and a prohibition of Contractors donating to those they wish to get Contracts from is long over due!
South Bay's Students education should be Job #1, and it is up to the Voters to make sure that happens. Electing New Board Members will send a strong message that, "Pay for Play" is no longer acceptable!
We need to provide many more Students with degree's not build more Huge Buildings with ornate furnishings just to fatten Contractor's wallets!
Education Not Construction
I believe Karen Janney, who is running for the Sweetwater school board, refuses to accept contractor money. Other than maybe a few exceptions like her, "pay to play" seems to have become the norm in private contractor/public agency relations. I agree with #4 and #5. We've got to fix this corrupt system!
Norma Hernandez has had more than 300 people donate to her campaign to raise the money for her campaign, most individuals. SHe is the choice of teachers and staff to bring the focus back to education and reinstating a good accreditation standing. Salcido has had a lot less donate to her campaign, but it is mostly big dollar donations from the very construction companies whose bids she has approved, many only after they have donated to her campaign. It's time to dump these incumbent folks who have put our college at risk of losing its accreditation, are cutting classes in favor of building buildings, and most likely getting their pockets lined with money that comes from our taxes. Think about it, a company like Echo Pacific or Seville donates $10s of thousands to your campaign and are rewarded with a fat juicy contract paid for with your tax dollars. Guess where they make up for the money the donate to the campaign? It comes from the bid they have just won.
So vote out the unethical incumbents who have accepted tens of thousand dollars in "pay-for-play" money, and insist that new school board members enact term limits while prohibiting donations from contractors who are doing business or want to do business with their districts.
--Philip Lopez
I agree with all the previous comments. Vote out the incumbents. If Cartmill and Ricasa can raise this kind of money from contractors for their campaigns, why haven't they asked the contractors/vendors to donate to save some of the district programs that have been cut due to budget constraints? Where are their priorities? Obviously, not with the students!
Oh by the way, it's interesting to note that one of the latest contributions on Cartmill's list is a $5,000 donation from Citizens for Good Government in South Bay. That FPPC committee is actually organized by GCR (Garcia, Calderon, and Ruiz), a law firm owned by Bonifacio Garcia. He is the Sweetwater District's legal counsel. The Citizens for Good Government has also contributed to Yolanda Salcido's campaign efforts in past years. The Citizens for Good Government has received contributions from contractors, like Barnhart, in the past. We don't know if they have received any recent donations from contractors/vendors because they have NOT filed all the required disclosure statements for this campaign season.
It's useful that these forms are now listed on the county website for all to see.
Another SWC Governing Board reform that's needed:
Currently, candidates compete for a single seat on the Board, even though the "seat" they're running for is meaingless. It's not a geographical seat or anything else. What have, in effect, is seperate elections for seperate Governing Board seats.
As a consequence, the winner of a seat might not receive a majority of the votes. Almost certainly, this is going to happen on Tuesday: Tim Nader is running for a seat against the incumbent Jorge Dominguez, against Bud MacLeroy, and against Jaime Mercado. Because there are four candidates, none of them is likely to receive a majority of the votes.
(I'm going to pause inside these partentheses to suggest that the reason Mercado is running for this seat is to split the ballot and take votes away from Nader--which will benefit his Sweetwater Union High School District colleague Jorge Dominguez. Why else would someone like Mercado--who's politically savvy--place himself on the ballot and then do absolutely nothing to win the election? He has shown up at none of the candidate forums, mailed no mailers, taken out no ads, done nada, zip, zero, zilch, but he's sure to get several thousand votes simply because he's on the ballot and because some folks will vote against any incumbent. These are votes that Nader will not get.)
Back on topic: Because SWC Board elections are for individual seats, there's a real possibility that a loser in the election for a given seat could receive more votes than a winner of the election for a different seat.
The solution for this undemocratic mess is simple: If there are three seats open, then voters should vote on the entire list of candidates, and the top three vote-getters win.
--Philip Lopez
South Bay Voters are being "Gamed" by the very folks they are expected to trust to run the educational systems fairly for the People in South Bay!
Quality Education begins with Quality Oversight, otherwise Faculty and Staff never have a chance of doing what's best for Students.
The current Board is skimming educational money and rewarding Fat Construction Companies with Fat Contracts in exchange for FAT Donations!
Wake up South Bay Voters and first vote in all new Board Members, then make sure they change the way the South Bay Educational Institutions works by demanding that they be selected by District instead or "At Large" because as explained above in #11's great post; these Boards are "RIGGED"...
Vote OUT THE OLD Pro Business Members, who accept BIG Contractor $ and VOTE IN the Pro Education Members that want to teach Students.
All South Bay Students are depending on you, Vote Smart!

Would Buster Baxter Ever End Up in The White House?
While everyone in America is worried about the presidential race, Japanese officials recently appointed a cartoon ambassador. And, the popular cartoon robot cat, Doraemon fills the position.
Foreign Minister Masahiko Komura appointed the cat an "anime ambassador," handing a human-sized Doraemon doll an official certificate at an inauguration ceremony, along with dozens of "dorayaki" red bean pancakes — his favorite dessert — piled on a huge plate.
To hear about Doraemon's role and responsibilities,
While wee ones aren't always aware of world leaders, they certainly take notice of the characters on their television screens so it will be interesting to see if this idea becomes a trend with other nations. During the unusual inauguration, the foreign minister who hopes "to harness the power of pop culture in diplomacy" said:
"Doraemon, I hope you will travel around the world as an anime ambassador to deepen people's understanding of Japan so they will become friends with Japan," Komura told the blue-and-white cat.
Do you think the United States will ever follow suit?

This time of year we tend feel more stressed than festive. We run around in the I've-got-to-get-it-all-done mode and hardly even notice what it is we are doing. That is a sure way to leech happiness from the season – or any day. Sure, we all have a lot to, but instead of focusing on all that you have to get done, be mindful of all that you are doing. Pause, breathe, nourish yourself and you'll find the smaller moments take on greater meaning and joy. And, by the way, you'll still get it all done. You'll just feel better doing it.
Here are some strategies I use to keep up and still have fun.
Start the day with an intention. Set the tone for the day by declaring how it is that you would like things to go. When I intend, I focus more on the feeling I want to create in my experience rather than specific things I want to occur. Each morning I sit on the edge of my bed and start with "Today, I intend that…" Then, simply fill in the blank.
I intend that I will act lovingly toward others and notice the love in my life.
I intend that I will laugh often.
I intend that I will feel good and relaxed.
I intend that I will go with the flow.
Whatever feeling, attitude, movement you want to create in your life, it starts with an intention. When you set your intention, you set the course for good things to flow into your day.
Get quiet. Yeah. Right. This time of year? Good luck. But, I am Not Kidding. Make quiet time a priority each day. It is a quick stress relief, a mood booster, and, because of the peace of mind silence provides, you'll actually be a bit more productive when you come back to the noise of life. So, turn off that blasting Christmas music next time you're in the car and drive in silence. Eat lunch without reading, or listening to music, or doing anything other than eating. Go for a walk without the iPod. Shower and notice the sound of the water drops. In my family it also helps to threaten certain people with severe consequences if they interrupt my shower by shouting through the bathroom door.
Get the giggles. Laugh at the absurd drama and the mistakes you make and the funny Christmas sweaters. Laugh at the upbeat cartoons and stupid jokes, and the Santaland Diaries. Find ways to laugh, even when the chaos is at an all-time high, a good laugh will make everything easier to deal with.
Get up and get going. Exercise helps you sustain your energy levels and fills your body with the feel-good chemicals that diffuse the stress. Go for a walk, rapidly clean the house, hit the gym. Whatever you do, get up and move it a bit everyday.
Find grace. I read a story about the Lego company providing a brick set to a boy who had been saving his money for years to buy it — and I felt better. I saw and elderly couple painstakingly putting up thousands of holiday lights around their house and their yard, for the neighborhood to enjoy. And, I felt good. Notice the marvelous in your life. Look for the things that were salvaged by grace and compassion and love and allow yourself to feel the grace. We are all uplifted when we notice good things, awesome things, marvelous things. We are inspired by goodness. Notice the goodness – even if the crap is happening all around – see the good and pass it on. You'll feel better. Promise.
Make room for the good to appear in your life, and it will show up for you, even amid the hustle and bustle of our busy lives. It's there, if only we notice.

Freemont cottonwoods and why rainbows come now
The sun never gets higher than 42 ̊
Scott Ellis 7:04 a.m., Nov. 18
I went to the perfect Messiah performance the other night at the Neuroscience Institute.
The organization putting on the show was the Fan Faire Foundation: where science and music intersect.
I'd not heard of Fan Faire but I was impressed with the fresh, relaxed atmosphere of the concert.
For starters it was only about an hour of music. I've sang and heard The Messiah so many times that I'm thrilled when a program hits some of the highlights and calls it a night.
This was a sing along Messiah which means you show up, pay ten dollars and sing with the orchestra.
I knew I was in for a great night when I paid my ten dollars with eight dollar bills, two fifty cent pieces and four quarters.
I realized late in the game that they probably weren't going to accept credit cards so I had to scrape some cash together.
The ticket attendant treated my gravel-ish money with respect and dignity.
The orchestra was a community band and at times the intonation proved that.
However, the atmosphere was so informal and conversational that I didn't care about a few out of tune notes here and there.
There were five soloists of varying ability.
The alto had obvious health issues.
The two sopranos were both solid.
The bass had a voice of great potential but sang Handel a la Robert Goulet.
The tenor was terrifying. He made all the notes in the opening recitative and aria but from the get go I thought he was going to crash and burn. He did not.
I imagine the exhilaration I felt being similar to what one might feel while running with the bulls. Any second you're expecting to be gored but when you survive it you're happy to be alive and consider doing it again.
The program ended with The Hallelujah Chorus.
Before we started it, a few young girls joined the orchestra with their baby violins. If was very cute and increased the feeling of community.
In a setting like this, the end of the Hallelujah Chorus is booby trapped.
The text repeats, "Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah."
Invariably someone gets carried away and adds a solo "Hallelu--" When nobody did this, several people in the audience cheered.
That is why I think this was a perfect Messiah performance.
We were allowed to experience the music and comment on it during the process of the concert and that is a rare, valuable experience.


text: I've been looking for a truck and came across a 2007 GMC with the duramax. It's got the new body style. Truck has 80 000 km or 50 000 miles and real good condition. Is there anything to be concerned about with this engine? It has the LMM duramax. From my research, it appears that this is the engine that first got the DPF and other emission control gadgets put on. This, in turn, seems to have negatively affected engine performance and fuel economy. Can anyone confirm this from their experiences or knowledge of the 07 Sierra. Thanks.

My sister just sent me an email. She signed up to be a Foster Parent for a military member who is called to duty and has to leave a pet behind. She was just asked if she could foster 3 cats. However, she can't foster that many. She already has 4 cats and 2 dogs. Plus one of her cats is dying and she needs to give this cat all of her attention right now. This military person is leaving this Friday. I wish I could do something. Unfortunately, I live in a 3 room apartment with 2 cats and 1 dog so there's no chance I can foster them. I'm so depressed.
I went to buy a lottery ticket at lunchtime. If I win the lottery I'm going to buy a huge house on a huge piece of land and foster all the pets who are waiting for their loved ones return.

I have someone wanting me to do a full body mount on a black bear, what concerns me it that it has been in his freezer for 2 years. If the hair does not slip what other things might I run into?
Return to Lifesize Mammal Taxidermy Category Menu
Only kidding
As long as it was tanned it should be fins. That's the proper way of storing a tanned hide. I will also add you have no idea on what is wrong with it as holes, size & bad cuts. I won't give him a till it's thawed and then checked over. After that you can give him a price.
There won't be any slipping problems unless he put it in there spoiled.There may be a little freezer burn or none at all.This might make it a little more difficult to turn ears etc.,but shouldn't be too big a deal.Bears thaw slowly because they are so well insulated.When you thaw it,hang it from the ceiling by a rear paw if possible and it will unravel itself as it thaws.if you just sit it on the floor it can take days and that's not good.I hang a bear skin at night and usually by morning I can start work on it.

After spending a decade in a U.S. controlled detention centre in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Omar Khadr is back home on Canadian soil. The 26-year-old Canadian is being held in a maximum-security prison in Millhaven, Ont., after arriving pre-dawn Saturday by military plane; he will serve out the remainder of his eight-year sentence for war crimes in the Canadian correctional system. National Post reporter Armina Ligaya looks what his return means for Mr. Khadr, and for Canadians.
Who is Omar Khadr?
Born in the Toronto suburb of Scarborough, Ont., Mr. Khadr is the second youngest son of Ahmed Said Khadr, whom U.S. officials allege was a close friend of Osama bin Laden and an al-Qaeda financier. In July 2002, Omar Khadr was found at age 15 in the rubble of a bombed-out compound in Afghanistan after a battle with U.S. troops. Shortly after Mr. Khadr was arrested, he was transferred to Guantanamo Bay. During his years of custody, among other things, Mr. Khadr was shackled in stress positions, threatened with rape and deprived of sleep. In 2010, Mr. Khadr pleaded guilty before a military commission to five war crimes, including throwing a hand grenade during the 2002 battle that killed U.S. Special Forces Sgt. Christopher Speer. Other charges included attempted murder in violation of the laws of war; providing "material support" for terrorism, spying and conspiracy. He still has family members living in Toronto.
Why is he back on Canadian soil now?
Mr. Khadr applied for a transfer to Canada in April, which he became eligible to do as part of a plea deal in 2010. In exchange for his guilty plea, the 40-year sentence handed to him by military-commission jury was commuted to eight more years, with only one more to be served in Cuba and the remainder to be served in his homeland.
Could Canada have refused to take him back?
Foreign Minister John Baird said that Canada "didn't have much of a choice" but to bring Mr. Khadr home. Canada has been criticized for appearing to drag its feet on the transfer, but the government has blamed the U.S. for the delay. Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said earlier this month that Mr. Khadr was likely to remain in Guantanamo until January, making Saturday's nighttime repatriation a surprise, even to his own family. On Sunday, Mr. Baird said in a television interview that Canada allowed the transfer earlier after urging from U.S. officials. When asked on CTV's Question Period whether Mr. Khadr's repatriation was sped up because of diplomatic pressure, Mr. Baird responded: "Yes…. Obviously the Americans are closing down the prison and wanted to send him back and under law, Canadian law, we're pretty obliged to take him…. He's a Canadian citizen, he has a right to come back. We didn't have much of a choice."
Is he a terrorist or a child soldier?
That depends on who you ask. Minister Toews called Mr. Khadr a "known supporter of the al-Qaeda terrorist network and a convicted terrorist." But Liberal leader Bob Rae criticized the government for not pushing for a transfer sooner, calling Mr. Khadr a "child soldier." "It is extremely unfortunate that it took the Conservative government this long to fulfill its responsibility to bring him back to Canada," Mr. Rae said in a statement Saturday. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has rejected that Mr. Khadr was a child soldier, because he was not a member of any army when he was arrested. But Dr. Samantha Nutt, founder of War Child Canada, has argued in a 2009 statement that because he was 15 when he was arrested in Afghanistan, Mr. Khadr is a child soldier according to international standards. And, she added, most child soldiers are used in rebel militias, not any recognizeable army.
So, what is Canada going to do with him now?
Mr. Khadr will remain in Millhaven Institution, just west of Kingston, Ont., where he will be assessed for permanent placement. From this point on, his case will be dealt with under the rules of the Correctional Service of Canada and the Parole Board of Canada.
When will he get out of prison?
Mr. Khadr will be eligible to apply for parole next year. The latest Mr. Khadr will be released into Canadian society will be 2018, when he finishes the remainder of his eight-year sentence. Mr. Toews said it will be up to the parole board to determine how many of the six years remaining on his sentence Mr. Khadr will need to serve.
Should I worry about my safety?
Mr. Toews said Mr. Khadr is no threat to public safety, and the minister is satisfied that the Correctional Service of Canada can administer Mr. Khadr's sentence and "ensure the safety of Canadians is protected during incarceration." However, in his three-page transfer decision released on Saturday, Mr. Toews cited some concerns. Among them is that "Mr. Khadr idealizes his father" and appears to deny his "lengthy history of terrorist action and association with al-Qaeda." Mr. Toews also cites Mr. Khadr's mother and older sister's open praise of his "crimes and terrorist activities," and notes that Mr. Khadr's limited contact with Canadian society means "substantial management" will be required to ensure "safe reintegration" into Canada. But Mr. Khadr's lawyers say the Canadian government is demonizing him and stoking public opinion against him. "We know him to be a kind, intelligent, thoughtful young man who has tremendous potential and we know that he will live up to that." His co-counsel, Brydie Bethell, said her client is "desperate" to be a normal, contributing member of society. She said Mr. Khadr has been studying various subjects with the long-distance help of a tutor in Edmonton and is "committed to his education."

played up top with Paulo Wanchope and Cuauhtemoc Blanco in a 4-3-3 alignment that applied a lot of pressure to United's midfield and back line.
United's best chances came when Luciano Emilio rang a shot off the goalpost and Fire goalie Matt Pickens turned away a 20-yard Christian Gomez blast. Playing for the first time on a new grass surface laid down following the conclusion of the baseball season, United ran its unbeaten streak to 13 games in front of its biggest MLS crowd of the season (25,404) aside from the visit of the Galaxy.
Substitute Calen Carr headed a Gonzalo Segares cross over the bar with the game's final chance. The 0-0 scoreline is Chicago's fifth tie in the last six matches. Its goals-allowed average of 1.24 ranks fifth in MLS but it ranks 11th in scoring with only 30 goals in 29 games (1.03).
D.C. (16-6-7) has clinched the overall best record with 55 points even if it loses its last game and Chivas USA beats Houston, since United wins the head-to-head tiebreaker (1-0-1).
JOKERS WILD. Coach Frank Yallop didn't follow the definition of a joker to the letter but still pulled out yet another vital victory.
Sub Gavin Glinton won a penalty kick that Landon Donovan converted, and Edson Buddle scored a minute after coming into the game as the Galaxy beat Toronto FC, 2-1, at Home Depot Center. The Galaxy (9-13-6) is still four points out of the eighth spot occupied by Kansas City and Chicago but has a game in hand against both those teams.
A TFC lineup weakened by injury rebuffed numerous Galaxy attempts in the first half and rallied to tie the game after Marco Reda pulled down Glinton on a breakaway and was sent off.
Chris Pozniak's through ball ran for Collin Samuel to smash home just his second goal of the season in the 68th minute.
The Galaxy renewed its attacks. Cobi Jones cut inside but shot weakly with his left foot and Carlos Pavon headed a swerving Glinton serve right to TFC keeper Kenny Stamatopoulos.
Buddle replaced midfielder Josh Tudela and just seconds later Donovan slid a great pass that Chris Klein drove low across the goalmouth to the far post, where Buddle hit the skipping ball first-time high into the net.
TFC (6-17-6) finishes its inaugural season next Saturday against New England at home, where its average attendance of 20,112 ranks third in the league but first in atmosphere.
RAPIDS' RECIPE. Let's see, what's the best potboiler formula of a team desperately needing to win a game?
Start with going down to 10 men against a team unbeaten at home, add a defender scoring his first goal of the season on his former stomping grounds, throw in a conceded equalizer, and wrap it all off with a substitute scoring in the final minute.
Viola! Chivas USA 1, Rapids 2 at Home Depot Center, and everything still to play for!
Coach Fernando Clavijo gave midfielder Jose Cancela just his fourth start of the season and fielded three forwards, but the Rapids created few dangerous chances in the first half.
Just after halftime, got the red Brandon Prideaux dragged down Chivas USA striker Maykel Galindo, necessitating further revisions. But Chivas USA failed to take advantage right away and in the 64th minute, ex-Galaxy defender Ugo Ihemelu knocked home a loose ball for a 1-0 Colorado lead. Keeper Bouna Coundoul saved brilliantly on a Jonathan Bornstein header and denied Laurent Merlin but couldn't stop Orlando Perez, who equalized with his first goal of the year from Sacha Kljestan's league-leading 13th assist of the season. Twelve minutes remained.
Clavijo sent on Jacob Peterson and Cummings but the cause seemed lost until Conor Casey stormed up the left flank and squared a ball to the far post, where a wide-open Cummings tapped it in.
DOWN TO THE WIRE, AGAIN. Kansas City squandered another chance to clinch a postseason spot by losing to New York, 2-1, and for the third straight season will go into its final game needing a result.
The Wizards (10-12-7) equalized two minutes after going behind, then fell behind again after another three minutes and never caught up, despite being awarded a penalty kick.
Jack Jewsbury headed in Davy Arnaud's free kick to answer Juan Pablo Angel's penalty in the 19th minute, but Angel struck again a few minutes later.
Wizard Jose Burciaga gave away the penalty with a handball and his slip on the ball enabled Dane Richards to set up Angel for New York's winning goal.
Keeper Jon Conway turned aside Eddie Johnson's penalty eight minutes into the second half. Scott Sealy nearly tied it up for Kansas City in the 75th minute but Conway got a piece of his point-blank shot and Dave van den Bergh cleared it from under the crossbar.
The Red Bulls (12-11-6) won for only the second time in the last nine matches and finished the season 9-3-3 in the Meadowlands.

I joined this group originally thinking that this would be a goal of mine for next year (since I only started running on May 18th of this year). However, it looks like there's a very real chance I might be able to catch that bunny by the end of the year. Not going to push myself, just let it happen if it does.
(I have no training plan--I just run as much as feels good.)
Wish me luck!
"When a person trains once, nothing happens. When a person forces himself to do a thing a hundred or a thousand times, then he certainly has developed in more ways than physical. Is it raining? That doesn't matter. Am I tired? That doesn't matter, either. Then willpower will be no problem." Emil Zatopek
This bunny can be tricky. I was ahead in February - then fell behind after life stuff got in the way; funny how the bunny seems to enjoy absolute immunity against illness, inclement weather conditions, work demands and so on . I used the longer daylight hours of the summer months to get in longer runs and catch up. Hoping to keep up the 20 miles/week during the darker winter months. Looking at your weekly mileage you will definitely catch the bunny well before the end of the year.
Welcome and good luck!
I needed the final day of last year to to beat the Bunny, but I'm pummeling him pretty good right now.
2014 - Get 5k back under 20:00. Stay healthy!
Thanks to both of you! I passed the 700 mark today, so I'm confident I'm going to catch that pesky rabbit. My optimistic goal is now to get him in November!

Editor: Two recent columns in your paper derided the idea that God could be behind Hurricane Katrina as punishment for our sinful nation. Actually, no one not in personal contact with God can know, one way or the other.
However, as was alleged in a story in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "The day Bourbon Street was flooded was the day that 125,000 homosexuals were going to be celebrating sin in the streets.'' It was to be called a "Day of Southern Decadence.''
A coincidence? Who knows? But certainly it can't be summarily dismissed as your columnists have done.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29 (UPI) -- Christopher Plummer says he relished playing iconic Russian author Leo Tolstoy at the end of his life in the new film "The Last Station."
"It was the script (that most appealed to me) because I thought of all the vast life that Tolstoy had. You couldn't make a biography. It wouldn't be a movie anyway, it would be a series and it would take four years," the 80-year-old Canadian actor told UPI in New York recently. "So, it was wise to pick the last moments of (Leo and his wife Sophia's) lives together as the most humanizing moments of agony and joy and passion. And I thought, 'Yes, that's great; people will, perhaps, go away thinking that Tolstoy wasn't the dry old sock that a lot of people think he is because he is so remote to us.'"
Asked if he is overwhelmed by the Oscar buzz his performances in the films "The Last Station," "Up" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" have been generating this year, Plummer replied: "No, it's not overwhelming, it's work. And it's fun work, actually. I enjoyed all the things you named. I had different kinds of fun with each one of them, but it's all fun. As to the Oscar, we don't talk about that because if we do, there's no point in going on."
Written and directed by Michael Hoffman, "The Last Station" is based on Jay Parini's novel and co-stars Helen Mirren, Paul Giamatti, James McAvoy and Kerry Condon.
Plummer was recently nominated for supporting actor Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild awards for his work in "Station." Mirren earned nods for lead actress SAG and Golden Globe awards for her portrayal of Tolstoy's wife.

* Prices may differ from that shown
This mobile looks like the perfect answer for somebody who wants simplicity. However, I have owned two of them, and, after about a year the same thing has happened to both. You switch the phone on (or try to), get a momentary blue screen, then a buzz, then it switches itself off again. Nothing else is possible. My local Moby shop says that this kind of software failure happens to phones of all makes, but I am buying other makes in future.

Suggestions for further research
Web sites that are critical of TM...
TM-Free. This is a blog with several highly knowledgeable ex-TMer contributors. These are people who know where the bodies are buried.
Coming To Life Stories. This is Gina Catena's blog. I mention her in my discussion of David Lynch. She literally grew up in the "TM Movement" (as TMers like to call it) and also knows where the bodies are buried. She is also a frequent contributor to the TM-Free blog mentioned above.
Behind the TM Facade (specializes in very effectively debunking TM's claims to "scientific validation")
Meditation Information Network (don't miss the TM-EX Newsletter Archive and the TM Dissenter's FAQ )
Web sites that educate the public about destructive cults
International Cultic Studies Association.
Steven Hassan's Resource Center for Freedom of Mind
Cult Awareness & Information Centre
Books that educate the public about destructive cults
The best single book to start with is Combatting Cult Mind Control by Steven Hassan.Ā This book is an excellent popular introduction to the psychological techniques used by destructive cults to surreptitiously alter their recruits' experience of reality.
I also recommend Hassan's second book, Releasing The Bonds: Empowering People to Think for Themselves.
Another excellent book is Cults in Our Midst by Margaret Thaler Singer, Janja Lalich, and Robert Jay Lifton.Ā Dr. Margaret Singer is emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of California at Berkeley, and is one of the foremost contributors to the understanding of the psychological influence techniques used by destructive cults in order to recruit and retain members.Ā There are many references in the book to "empty mind meditation." Before publication she had originally specifically written "Transcendental Meditation" instead, but a professor at MUM caught wind of it and she was threatened with a SLAPP suit that she didn't want to have to defend.
TM and Cult Mania was the book that introduced me to how TM worked via trance and suggestion. It is written by Michael A. Persinger Ph.D. He is Coordinator of the Behavioural Neuroscience Program at Laurentian University.
Web sites that are favorable toward TM...
Ask the Doctors (This site is a hoot! I discuss it here).
Fun with TM web links
- Here's a fascinating new angle on the Evolution of Man. I recommend the whole thing, but if you get tired of it be sure to at least search for "2001" before giving up.
- Have a look at The Maharishi Channel. Just click around, there are hours and hours of fun here. "Coronation of New Rajas" is pretty cool.
- Are these guys really hovering?
- Click on some of these trademarks.
- Make "Global Good News" your primary news source every day!
- TM has a King of the World.
- Maharaja Raam is is anxious to help (and in a big way!).
- In fact, Maharaja Raam will lead the world to a state of "non-good nowhere"!
- Not only do they go out in public in those things, but they give speeches! In this video David Lynch introduces the Raja of Germany at a press conference being held to announce the purchase of a site for Berlin's new Tower of Invincibility (that's what the building in the picture is). The Raja starts to spout torrents of standard TM-babble but the German crowd is apparently culturally very perceptive of snow-jobs.
- Maharaja Raam's "Global Country of World Peace" issues its own currency. It's pegged to the dollar.
- Help make your nation become "invincible" by becoming a yogic flyer!
- Get your horoscope cast, not just by any old astrologer but by a special Maharishi-branded astrologer.
- If your horoscope says that things are looking dark then don't panic, you can make sacrifices to the Vedic gods to make things ok again. (Hey, that's cool if you're Hindu but this is supposed to be a completely secular relaxation technique that's being taught!)
- You can also help dig yourself out of a karmic hole by living in a house built according to Maharishi-branded (of course) Indian feng shui. This will help because the orientation of the house means everything!
- In fact, as a TMer you'll buy just about anything with a "Maharishi" brand!. The "Maharishi Vedic Observatory" is just amazing. Click on the yantras (those things in the ring) to read about the "Vedic influence" of each according to "Maharishi Vedic Science." And the Observatory is easy to use! All you have to do is to look at the thing (search for "How to Use") and "ten kinds of specific balancing influences are enlivened in the physiology." Ordering is easy! It's a mere $4.000 and comes with its own maple table and domed cover!
- Here's an experiment:
- Please meet John Hagelin, Ph.D., Director of the Institute of Science, Technology and Public Policy at Maharishi University of Management, and Minister of Science and Technology of the Global Country of World Peace. Whew.
- The experiment involves listening to his "important message for all military leaders." Go to his website at the link above, find "Dr. Hagelin presents the Invincible Defense Technology", and click on the "Watch on Flash" link just below.
- Listen to it for a full 15 minutes, making your best effort to follow his arguments.
- Did your mind sort of glaze over while listening, enough so that you had to struggle somewhat to resume your effort to pay attention? In other words, did you get a bit spaced out? You may have gone into a light trance. Listening to extended complicated nonsense delivered in a pleasant monotone is a form of trance induction. You only had to listen for 15 minutes, but a TMer would have listened to the entire hour and a quarter! TMers, who have already proven themselves to be susceptible to trance induction, listen to thousands of hours of this sort of thing during their careers.

text: I spent over an hour last night searching every gun auction and sales site I could find on the web, looking for a used G36. I hear enough stories about people having trouble getting them to function reliably I figured one of those un-happy owners would want to get rid of the "problem". Well, if they do they seem to think they can make money on the deal. Every used G36 I found would cost as much (counting all expenses) or more than buying a new one from Glockmeister. Where are all the "piece of junk" malfunctioning G36s? I want to buy one that doesn't work reliably and see if I can figure out why. Sure not going to pay a new gun price for a gun that may not work!

Costa Rica Offers Thrilling Adventures in Paradise
An adventurer's paradise, Costa Rica is full of thrilling opportunities for the intrepid traveler. Whether it is ziplining through the rainforest, or fishing for the big one in the crystal blue waters off the coast, you'll find no shortage of exciting things to experience here.
Arenal Volcano and Tabacon Hot Springs
Costa Rica's best known volcano, Arenal was one of the most active in the world until 2010. While eruptions have for the most part ceased, Arenal remains a stunningly beautiful, symmetrical conical volcano worth a visit. The Arenal area also boasts lakes, white-water rafting excursions, and hiking trails complete with hanging bridges and gorgeous views. No visit to Arenal would be complete without a dip in the Tabacon Hot Springs, a completely natural, geothermal gem surrounded by lush rainforests.
Zipline Canopy Tour
Ziplining remains one of the most popular adventure activities in Costa Rica, and with good reason. Nothing can quite compare to the feeling of soaring through the rainforest canopy alone, with nothing but breathtaking views of the flora and fauna all around you. Tours can be found almost anywhere in the country, but those located in the Arenal and Monteverde regions are especially popular.
White-water Rafting
From gently floating down calm rivers, to fast and exciting white-water adventures, Costa Rica's rivers offer boat, kayak, and canoe opportunities for all experience levels. For a real heart-pounder, arrange a rafting trip with one of the many guided water tours that can take you over the rapids and rappelling down waterfalls. You'll also see areas of the jungle untouched and rarely visited while on the water, a big, and increasingly uncommon, treat.
Deep Sea Fishing
The coast off of Los Sueños offers some of the best fishing in the world. Boats wait to take you to top deep sea fishing locations teeming with marlin, sailfish, tuna and more. Local captains who know the best spots will guide you on a chartered sport fishing adventure you'll long remember. Check out the latest fishing reports for some current local fishing conditions and news.
ATV Tours
To really experience all that the mountains and jungles of Costa Rica offer, there's no better way than on an all-terrain vehicle, or ATV. Whether you're on a smooth beach or braving a muddy, jungle trail, these four-wheeled vehicles give you the freedom of a motorcycle with the ability for off-road adventuring.

Teachers'incentives and professional development in schools in Mexico
The quality of education is a determining factor in a nation's competitiveness. To compete globally, Mexico needs to raise its education standards. Several innovations to raise the quality of basic education at the federal and state levels have been developed: professional training of teachers, new"learning presence in schools,"and improvement of working conditions and salaries of teachers. The author examines teachers'incentives and their impact on students'learning achievement. She shows that early in their professional lives, teachers in basic public schools are better paid than in other comparable groups. She also finds that some incentives for teachers at the school level improve learning achievement. For instance, the enrollment of teachers in the Carrera Magisterial program has a positive effect on students'learning achievement. Furthermore, teachers'training is most effective when targeted toward increasing their practical experience and developing content-specific knowledge.

An employee who has been discharged doesn't have much to lose by suing her former employer. She may go looking for some underlying reason other than poor performance to explain why she got the ax.
And she may suddenly remember incidents that now seem awfully a lot like sexual harassment.
Your best defense to such charges is a robust harassment and discrimination policy that tracks every complaint. You'll also want to offer proof that you tell employees how and where to complain. Those simple steps go a long way toward insulating you from liability. Courts rarely hold employers responsible for conduct that employees never reported until after they were fired.
Recent case: Andrea Anderson was hired by a Family Dollar Store—and fired the next day. She complained to HR, which looked into her dismissal and offered her an interview for another position.
Family Dollar subsequently hired her as a manager. Several months later, Anderson was again fired. The stated reason: poor performance.
That's when she sued, claiming that during a long-ago telephone conversation, her supervisor had told her he was in a hotel in Florida and that she should be there with him, drinking a Mai Tai. This, she claimed, was proof that she was fired because she rebuffed the advance.
The court noted that Anderson knew at the time how to complain about sexual harassment and hadn't done so. It dismissed her lawsuit. (Anderson v. Family Dollar Stores, No. 08-3061, 8th Cir., 2009)

Those who are looking for info on how to lose excess water weight can rest assured that they are reading the right article. Basically speaking, a number of factors will cause you to gain excessive weight from water. The only consolation is that just about anybody can gain water weight. However, trying to lose this weight will get somewhat frustrating. This is especially when you notice the pounds fluctuating on the scale. Anyway, use the following tips on how to lose excess water weight and you will be met with some commendable success.
1. Eat Well
The first step would be to ensure that you eat a well- balanced diet. This will help in regulating the nutrients passing through the cells in your body. If your body has an imbalanced level of minerals and vitamins, it will typically retain excess water. The best thing, therefore, would be to include vegetables, fruits, poultry, fish and lean meats into your diet on a daily basis. Eating fresh vegetables and fruits that have more water content like cucumbers, celery and watermelons will also force excess water out of your body in the form of urine thus helping you lose water weight.
2. Drinking Water
Of course it will sound weird for you to be required to add more fluids into your body when you are suffering from water retention. However, you can rest assured that this dos help a lot. If you don't drink enough amounts of water, your body will hold more water volumes within its cells. Dehydration will also slow down your body's ability to lose weight and burn fat. It is highly recommended that you drink at least 1. 5 to 2 quarts of water on a daily basis. If you are engaged in a rigorous exercise regimen, you may even be required to drink more fluids.
3. Drink Natural Diuretics
Add lemon and/or cranberry juice to water. Then, drink one or two glasses of this concoction every day and your body will be better placed to rid itself of any excessive water weight. This is one of the best tips on how to lose excess water weight. Coffee and green tea also rank among the natural diuretics that will increase your urination rate. Still, you should ensure that you don't drink too much tea or coffee since the caffeine found in these popular beverages have been known to cause the human body to lose iron and calcium.
4. Avoid Salt
Excess sodium helps the body retain fluid and water weight. You should avoid processed and canned foods that have high sodium levels as listed on their labels. Also, take in les salt in your cooked food and cut off salty snacks like salted pretzels and potato chips from your diet. Finally, you should do everything else in your power to adopt the various tips on how to lose excess water weight. This includes exercising, speaking to your personal doctor and warding off stress from your life. In the long run, you will notice a considerable decrease in your water weight.

Parrot knocks on front door for help
A MISSING parrot was found two miles from home after he astonishingly tapped "urgently" on a front door with his beak for help.
Bobby disappeared from his cage in Elfordleigh, Plymouth, and devastated owner Margita Vilagiova launched a massive search, pinning up dozens of posters.
She had almost given up hope when five days later her amazing pet landed on a doorstep in nearby Chaddlewood and knocked hard on the door.
Sarah Purdie, 41, opened it and at first looked straight over the Eclectus bird. Just as she was closing the door she saw 12in-tall emeraldgreen Bobby at her feet.
She took him to her local Woodside Animal Welfare Trust who reunited him with his owner.
Communications manager Sarah said: "It was definitely the most bizarre day of my life. I had just got home when I heard an urgent tapping at the door. It was actually quite loud.
"I thought someone had thrown something at the door.
"I opened up and didn't see anyone there and was about to shut it but looked down and there he was.
"I actually half closed the door and walked away because I didn't believe my eyes. I was wondering if it was real."
Relieved Margita said: "He is so beautiful and I was so worried about him."

Ex-police chief in Pa. gets jail for check theft
'If a public official doesn't have respect for the law, how can anyone else?' the judge said regarding the request for probation
By Joelle Farrell and Kathleen Brady Shea
The Philadelphia Inquirer
CHESTER, Pa. — A former Chester Township police chief was sentenced to nine to 23 months in jail Tuesday on charges stemming from his theft of an insurance check that he used for a down payment on a Cadillac Escalade.
Booker T. Wilson, 49, of Chester, was working part time at a halfway house in Chester in 2007 when he took a check for more than $6,600 intended for a former resident, prosecutors said.

This is one awesome and inspiring amp! My guitar tone is so unreal that it inspires me to play better and with more melodic control than ever before. When you are happy with your sound, you can play for hours and not have to add this effect or take away that one. This amp is a two channel tube combo with a 12" celestion for unmatched clarity and response. The spring reverb is very satisfying. The 30 watts are plenty loud for practice or jams/gigs and can easily be sent out through the line out to a 8 ohm speaker cabinet. I run my crate as a slave unit to a Vox speaker cabinet with two 12" Vox speakers when I need to hear myself louder and with more articulation. But I am very pleased with the stock speaker (Celestion 70/80) and wouldn't waste the money to upgrade to another. This is for sure the best tube amp you'll find anywhere for the price! As a side note, this amp is very versatile and can make any Strat with fat strings (11's) sound like Ritchie's Blackmore's 200 watt custom made Marshall, just much quieter. If you push this amp hard, it will push you back just as hard! Try one and see! It does crystal clean with a lot of headroom and that fat "brown sound" for raunchy riffs with lots of sustain, easily suited for legato runs and Malmsteen sweeps. This amp will handle all you can throw it's way!
Almost all of the classic and modern "class a" sounds in one box,from the mid-range chime of 60's British rock, to tight overdriven, dare I say "boutique"sounds of modern country lead guitar. Works great with all of my guitars, whether in the studio, or on stage. Just so you all know, don't let the size fool you... this little tone monster weighs a ton!
Great Clean Tone with headroom. Awesome grind from just enough to insane. The MIDBOOST function puts your leads in the Front of the Mix. GREAT JOB ON THIS ONE

Bayer CropScience: verdict in Arkansas biotech rice trial incomprehensible
In addition to the compensatory damages, the jury awarded punitive damages in the amount of $42 million. According to U.S. law, punitive damages may be awarded to plaintiffs in addition to compensatory damages if the defendant has acted in reckless disregard of the consequences. "This decision is especially incomprehensible to us, because the U.S. Department of Agriculture has completed a thorough and diligent investigation without concluding that Bayer CropScience violated any legal requirement with respect to low-level presence of genetically engineered rice in commercial rice. To insinuate a malicious act by Bayer in this case is completely unjustified," said Mackintosh. Bayer CropScience has acted responsibly and appropriately at all times in the handling of its genetically enhanced rice.
"Furthermore, the amount awarded to the plaintiffs by the jury exceeds by far what is permitted by Arkansas law," said Mackintosh. For that reason alone the verdict should be reversed, he added.
Genetically modified rice safe for human consumption
In the litigation the rice farmers have alleged economic loss stemming from traces of Bayer CropScience pre-commercial genetically enhanced rice. The traces were detected in 2006 from the long grain harvest of 2005. Following the detection some countries, primarily in Europe, imposed restrictions on U.S. long-grain rice imports. Most long-grain rice grown in the United States is consumed outside of Europe and thus the marketing of that portion of the crop remained unaffected by the European regulatory system.
The traces of biotech rice posed no food safety issues. The protein involved, which makes the rice tolerant to a herbicide, has been affirmed safe for various crops by regulators in a number of countries, including Canada, the European Union, Japan and the United States. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Department of Agriculture have determined Bayer CropScience biotech rice to be safe for human consumption; however, Bayer CropScience has not yet commercialized biotech rice.
Regarding the rice litigation, Mackintosh added: "Bayer CropScience is willing to work with those parties who approach discussions of economic loss in the genetically enhanced rice matter with an appropriate and reasonable frame of reference. Our recent settlement with Riviana Foods and four related companies for $5.8 million attests to our willingness to consider such opportunities to bring an end to litigation."
