- Inter-strain differences of serotonergic inhibitory pain control in inbred mice (2010)
- Background: Descending inhibitory pain control contributes to the endogenous defense against chronic pain and involves noradrenergic and serotonergic systems. The clinical efficacy of antidepressants suggests that serotonin may be particularly relevant for neuropathic pain conditions. Serotonergic signaling is regulated by synthesis, metabolisms, reuptake and receptors. To address the complexity, we used inbred mouse strains, C57BL/6J, 129 Sv, DBA/2J and Balb/c, which differ in brain serotonin levels. Results: Serotonin analysis after nerve injury revealed inter-strain differences in the adaptation of descending serotonergic fibers. Upregulation of spinal cord and midbrain serotonin was apparent only in 129 Sv mice and was associated with attenuated nerve injury evoked hyperalgesia and allodynia in this strain. The increase of dorsal horn serotonin was blocked by hemisectioning of descending fibers but not by rhizotomy of primary afferents indicating a midbrain source. Para-chlorophenylalanine-mediated serotonin depletion in spinal cord and midbrain intensified pain hypersensitivity in the nerve injury model. In contrast, chronic inflammation of the hindpaw did not evoke equivalent changes in serotonin levels in the spinal cord and midbrain and nociceptive thresholds dropped in a parallel manner in all strains. Conclusion: The results suggest that chronic nerve injury evoked hypernociception may be contributed by genetic differences of descending serotonergic inhibitory control.
- R-flurbiprofen reduces neuropathic pain in rodents by restoring endogenous cannabinoids (2010)
- Background: R-flurbiprofen, one of the enantiomers of flurbiprofen racemate, is inactive with respect to cyclooxygenase inhibition, but shows analgesic properties without relevant toxicity. Its mode of action is still unclear. Methodology/Principal Findings: We show that R-flurbiprofen reduces glutamate release in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord evoked by sciatic nerve injury and thereby alleviates pain in sciatic nerve injury models of neuropathic pain in rats and mice. This is mediated by restoring the balance of endocannabinoids (eCB), which is disturbed following peripheral nerve injury in the DRGs, spinal cord and forebrain. The imbalance results from transcriptional adaptations of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and NAPE-phospholipase D, i.e. the major enzymes involved in anandamide metabolism and synthesis, respectively. R-flurbiprofen inhibits FAAH activity and normalizes NAPE-PLD expression. As a consequence, R-Flurbiprofen improves endogenous cannabinoid mediated effects, indicated by the reduction of glutamate release, increased activity of the anti-inflammatory transcription factor PPAR gamma and attenuation of microglia activation. Antinociceptive effects are lost by combined inhibition of CB1 and CB2 receptors and partially abolished in CB1 receptor deficient mice. R-flurbiprofen does however not cause changes of core body temperature which is a typical indicator of central effects of cannabinoid-1 receptor agonists. Conclusion: Our results suggest that R-flurbiprofen improves the endogenous mechanisms to regain stability after axonal injury and to fend off chronic neuropathic pain by modulating the endocannabinoid system and thus constitutes an attractive, novel therapeutic agent in the treatment of chronic, intractable pain.
- Nerve injury evoked loss of latexin expression in spinal cord neurons contributes to the development of neuropathic pain (2011)
- Nerve injury leads to sensitization mechanisms in the peripheral and central nervous system which involve transcriptional and post-transcriptional modifications in sensory nerves. To assess protein regulations in the spinal cord after injury of the sciatic nerve in the Spared Nerve Injury model (SNI) we performed a proteomic analysis using 2D-difference gel electrophoresis (DIGE) technology. Among approximately 2300 protein spots separated on each gel we detected 55 significantly regulated proteins after SNI whereof 41 were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF MS. Out of the proteins which were regulated in the DIGE analyses after SNI we focused on the carboxypeptidase A inhibitor latexin because protease dysfunctions contribute to the development of neuropathic pain. Latexin protein expression was reduced after SNI which could be confirmed by Western Blot analysis, quantitative RT-PCR and in-situ hybridisation. The decrease of latexin was associated with an increase of the activity of carboxypeptidase A indicating that the balance between latexin and carboxypeptidase A was impaired in the spinal cord after peripheral nerve injury due to a loss of latexin expression in spinal cord neurons. This may contribute to the development of cold allodynia because normalization of neuronal latexin expression in the spinal cord by AAV-mediated latexin transduction or administration of a small molecule carboxypeptidase A inhibitor significantly reduced acetone-evoked nociceptive behavior after SNI. Our results show the usefulness of proteomics as a screening tool to identify novel mechanisms of nerve injury evoked hypernociception and suggest that carboxypeptidase A inhibition might be useful to reduce cold allodynia.
- Progranulin contributes to endogenous mechanisms of pain defense after nerve injury in mice (2012)
- Progranulin haploinsufficiency is associated with frontotemporal dementia in humans. Deficiency of progranulin led to exaggerated inflammation and premature aging in mice. The role of progranulin in adaptations to nerve injury and neuropathic pain are still unknown. Here we found that progranulin is up-regulated after injury of the sciatic nerve in the mouse ipsilateral dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord, most prominently in the microglia surrounding injured motor neurons. Progranulin knockdown by continuous intrathecal spinal delivery of small interfering RNA after sciatic nerve injury intensified neuropathic pain-like behaviour and delayed the recovery of motor functions. Compared to wild-type mice, progranulin-deficient mice developed more intense nociceptive hypersensitivity after nerve injury. The differences escalated with aging. Knockdown of progranulin reduced the survival of dissociated primary neurons and neurite outgrowth, whereas addition of recombinant progranulin rescued primary dorsal root ganglia neurons from cell death induced by nerve growth factor withdrawal. Thus, up-regulation of progranulin after neuronal injury may reduce neuropathic pain and help motor function recovery, at least in part, by promoting survival of injured neurons and supporting regrowth. A deficiency in this mechanism may increase the risk for injury-associated chronic pain.
- Learning and memory with neuropathic pain: impact of old age and progranulin deficiency (2013)
- Persistent neuropathic pain is a frequent consequence of peripheral nerve injuries, particularly in the elderly. Using the IntelliCage we studied if sciatic nerve injury obstructed learning and memory in young and aged mice, each in wild type and progranulin deficient mice, which develop premature signs of brain aging. Both young and aged mice developed long-term nerve injury-evoked hyperalgesia and allodynia. In both genotypes, aged mice with neuropathic pain showed high error rates in place avoidance acquisition tasks. However, once learnt, these aged mice with neuropathic pain showed a significantly stronger maintenance of the aversive memory. Nerve injury did not affect place preference behavior in neither genotype, neither in young nor aged mice. However, nerve injury in progranulin deficient mice impaired the learning of spatial sequences of awarded places, particularly in the aged mice. This task required a discrimination of clockwise and anti-clockwise sequences. The chaining failure occurred only in progranulin deficient mice after nerve injury, but not in sham operated or wildtype mice, suggesting that progranulin was particularly important for compensatory adaptations after nerve injury. In contrast, all aged mice with neuropathic pain, irrespective of the genotype, had a long maintenance of aversive memory suggesting a negative alliance and possibly mutual aggravation of chronic neuropathic pain and aversive memory at old age.

Scenario Tree time:
1a) Yes, it is against Apple's new guidelines, but these apps were submitted, reviewed, and approved before these guidelines went into effect. This seems most likely, but that leaves a situation where WB has gone through the time, effort, and money to develop these apps (and the infrastructure behind them) only to have Apple change the rules after the fact.
1b) Yes, it is against Apple's new guidelines, but Apple allows WB a pass because they want these apps on the store. I think this is doubtful -- Apple really does not need a TDK app separate form iTunes purchase/rental, but included for thoroughness. Not much else to say here, except the iOS dev's lament that ill-defined and inconsistently applied "guidelines" are the single biggest externality (pain in the ass cost) in our entire business.
2) No, it is not against Apple's new guidelines. The app is clearly centered around a single movie, so, if this is not against the guidelines? Are DVD-style extras what makes this not a media chunk for iTunes? Or is a set of trivia questions about a film enough to make a film-centric app "not media" and therefore not subject to these guidelines? Where can I, as a developer, know where Apple draws the line so I can follow Apple's rules? Like most other frustrations with the App Store, it seems like the content guidelines are going to be unclear and somewhat arbitrary.
Warner Bros. launches Dark Knight and Inception as apps
Warner Brothers today released two of their movies, Dark Knight and Inception, as applications in the App Store and is available in 35 different countries. The interesting thing to note is that 23 of those countries are unable to get these two movies through iTunes.
The apps are free and they come ready to go with a five minute preview of each film along with games, trivia, extras and other materials for users to enjoy. If you decide you want to watch the movie you have two options at that point. You can choose to stream the movie or download it to your device to watch at a later time. Dark Knight is currently available for $9.99 and Inception is available for $11.99. Thomas Gewecke, president of digital distribution made a short comment about their new "apps."
We think this is an innovative way to build a global footprint on devices that are optimized for video viewing.
Yes it is definitely an innovative way to allow countries without iTunes movie access to have a chance at getting these movies but is it against Apple's new App Store developer guidelines? Specifically they say that apps that are for media should be sent to iTunes and not the App Store. So who knows if these two movies will make it as apps for long but if they do this opens up a whole new way to get movies on your iOS devices. Will you be downloading these movies as apps? Do you like the idea of downloading movies as apps instead of the standard way from iTunes? Tell us what you think in our comments section.

Warner Bros. launches Dark Knight and Inception as apps
Scenario Tree time:
Downloading an app that's really aovie in disguise is not only retarded, but... Yup. It's retarded. I'm surprised Apple allowed this. I can download the movie from the iTunes store, or online and sync it. There is no need to have another app on my screen. It's not an app. It's a movie.
"Warner Brothers today released two of their movies, Dark Knight and Inception, as applications in the App Store and is available in 35 different countries. (The interesting thing to note is that 23 of those countries are unable to get these two movies through iTunes.)"
Try reading before saying something stupid. You think it's retarded because YOU are in one of those other 12 countries that can actually get these movies in iTunes.
So you can download it elsewhere and sync it as it was intended. Where's your point?
It's just cluttering the crapp store with garbage. I hate apples strike control sometimes, and other times I wish it were more strict.
DAMN. NOTHING to do with. Are they going to stop me from going to a website and buying something? Cydia exists today because of Apple's stupidity. What I see happening is that dev's will have their own website and you will be able to go there and get this stuff. Wait, THAT IS Cydia!! In the long run, this will cost the App store MONEY. If this app gets kicked, all I have to do is go to WB's site, use my Paypal, and buy this movie.
Cydia exist today because Apple was BRILLIANT in locking down iOS (you may say dumbing it down) so as to ensure every user gets such an extraordinarily powerful yet even more extraordinarily easy to use suite of devices to play with that the iOS market grew so large it could even support a sub-market of fringe 1%'ers who want to go that extra yard by adding un-vetted experimental software tweaks into the mix.
I already have the movie via iTunes (that via the Triple Play on my Blu-ray copy). Would be nice if the extras would be available to me. Not worth playing £11.99 for. Yes that's right £11.99 not $11.99. They are playing silly games with the currency conversion here.
this is great. a game after a popular movie!!

Carvers Bay High Schools volleyball team enters the season with a lot of young players, but rather than worry, head coach Kimberly Baker is excited.
We have a lot of young girls, Baker said. But Im really looking forward to a good year because we have a lot of talent.
Bakers seniors are confident in the younger players.
The majority of our team are freshmen so I feel like this year well be really good because we only lost two seniors last year, said Hannah McLean.
These girls are really, really athletic. I think we can go far if everybody has the right attitude.
We have a lot of talent on the team this year, said Haley Miller. We have a lot of freshmen coming up, so I think not only this season youll have a great next few years because well have a lot of great young talent.
Caitlin Mason said she, McLean and Miller have to keep the young girls in line and dont let them slack off.
Youve got to stay energized, youve got to want it, youve got to love the game, Mason said.
The Lady Bears captured a region title two years and made the playoffs again last year, but have struggled to find post-season victories.
Baker scheduled trained in the spring, worked through the summer on skills, drills and conditioning, and brought in the volleyball coach Paul MacDonald from Frances Marion University for a camp.
The seniors said its their job to keep girls spirits up throughout the peaks and valleys of the season.
Were got to keep everybody motivated during the season and keep them uplifted even when we do have a bad game, McLean said. You cant win every game, but I think we can be pretty dominant if we keep our heads in the game.
Your attitude affects how you play, Miller said. If you have a bad attitude at school, you need to leave it off the court, so when you come you can play a great game and hopefully win.
The Bears scrimmaged Waccamaw and Carolina Forest on Aug. 12, trying out a new defense Baker has installed.
Hopefully theyll get comfortable [with] where theyre playing and who theyre playing with, calling the ball and talking [to each other], Baker said.
McLean said with all the younger players on the roster this season, the future looks bright.
In about two years, everybody is going to know who Carvers Bay is because these girls, they have a lot of potential, she said.
The Lady Bears host a scrimmage against Lake City on Aug. 21, and host a preseason tournament featuring Georgetown, Andrews and Loris on Aug. 23, before opening the season at Timberland on Aug. 26.

Melco Crown Entertainment: Rolling the Dice and Other Ways to Raise Capital
Stephen Sapp; Matthew Gray
Price: $6.93
The case deals with how the investment banker advising the chief financial officer of Melco Crown Entertainment Limited (MCEL), a casino and entertainment company based in Macau, suggests the company finance two new gaming resorts currently under construction. The development of these properties has stopped because of insufficient funding, and project timelines have started to be questioned. A decision regarding the best means to raise the necessary capital needs to be made quickly or MCEL may not be able to capitalize on the lucrative, growing gaming market in Macau. The advice must consider both the immediate need to raise capital to get the projects back on track as well as the need for long-term financial flexibility to take advantage of future opportunities. The case considers a variety of domestic and international options to determine what best meets MCEL's needs.
Learning objective:
The case is targeted at a course in international finance or financial markets at either the undergraduate or graduate level. The case allows for a discussion of the most common debt and equity alternatives, but the focus quickly turns to U.S. depository receipts (ADRs) due to the interest in raising equity rather than debt and the higher valuations available in the United States relative to the domestic Hong Kong market.

Dancing With The Stars
Val Chmerkovskiy: Backstage at DWTS, Not Everyone Is As They Seem
They say you should never meet your heroes, but maybe it's OK to teach them how to dance.
Val Chmerkovskiy has been a pro on Dancing With the Stars for three seasons — and hopefully four with Season 16, which starts March 18. New York Press asked him to name a star he was excited to meet. "Last season we had Jaleel White," Val said of the Season 14 competitor. "I mean that's Steve Urkel. When I moved here from the Ukraine, that's how I learned English — watching him on Family Matters." [Cue Urkel's "Did I do that?" Yes, you did!] "Now he's asking me how to do a dance move. It's surreal in some ways."
But not everyone we see on TV is the same way behind the scenes. Asked what it's like backstage at DWTS, Val told the NY Press:
"It's a lot of fun. The best part is that you're part of a family. All in all, there are a lot of good people I had the opportunity to work with. In terms of what you really want to know about backstage, not everyone who comes off on television the way they do is like that in reality. It's Hollywood, and people put on a great show. When you meet people you've been a fan of for a long time, you might be disappointed — or inspired — by them."
It's a shame he didn't share examples. Don't tease us Val! If you're going to dish some behind-the-scenes scoop, dish a juicier helping.

Vector 6: Ben Bajarin on Amazon vs. Apple vs. Google vs. Samsung
Ben Bajarin sounds like an Apple Fanboy, Apologist who hasn't considered contrary arguments. All glowing praise for Apple and nothing mentioned about Android market share worldwide (80% for smartphones, 60% for tablets). No mention of how disruptive Amazon and Google pricing is going to be for Apple worldwide. Open software systems usually beat closed. Don't waste your time with this drivel.
I agree. Your talking about apple selling just 1 phone is is false. They currently sell 3 phones. Then they say "well if you look at "1 phone" then the iPhone is the best selling". Again they are not looking at one phone. The numbers are for 3 phones with one operating system. Second, Apple is going to have the highest sales in their "1 phone" since people buy that "1 phone" for iOS the operation system. If someone here says other wise then why is the iPhone 4 selling about 30 % compared to the other two phones? Third, is what is the mission of Android. Android isn't owned by Samsung. The point of the OS was not to make Samsung the #1 phone on Android. Android was developed so everyone can use it and add to the Android ecosystem. In doing so adds to the number of people who could have access to Google Services. I guess if you want to make yourself feel better you could try to compare Samsung to Apple sales but Google only cares that the phones uses Android so they don't have to worrying that one day the owner of the OS they run on, like Apple, could replace them for their own apps. Why didn't you talk about how Google is making a lot of money off of Apple's iOS since so many people love their Google services. How Apple's squandered their launch of Maps which put Google back in the driver seat. I'd wish I was on this podcast to bring up all these points. I know these podcast are aimed at Apple fans but shouldn't all the angles be looked at. Come on guys. Don't be like Fox "News" where you just put your slant on it for your viewers. Let you passion come out with the other sides take. Rene is one of the smartest people out there and I know your love for Apple gives you a certain prospective but come on.
I thought this was the most fanboyed- out podcast I've ever heard. It was annoying. Apparently Apple isn't a hardware company? (that's news to me) It was so biased that I couldn't even take the analysis seriously. lol
No. I just want a little less fan boy view. Leo Laporte's podcasts use to be extremely fan boy. Go back to the TWIT Specials about two or three years ago for all the Apple keynotes. He can't wait to say how great everything is. He's changed his opinion because he's seen Android out innovate Apple. Android started out way behind so they had to but about 1 to 2 years ago Leo could see that Android has more appeal to him than Apple's iOS. He wasn't seeing the innovation that he saw with Android. Yes, Apple still has tons of money and mind share so don't have to worry about Apple. You should be happy that Android is around to keep Apple on their toes.

Living the Land Grant Mission Everyday
Our greatest challenge is truly being able to capture the breadth of our department's work. It has also changed over the years, from a Farm Economics department that included rural sociology, to one that deals with the entire farmer-to-consumer food system, environmental and natural resource issues, and local and international economic development. We have faculty and staff in Lexington, Elizabethtown, Bowling Green, Hopkinsville, Owensboro, Henderson, Princeton, and Mayfield. We are also the administrative home for Kentucky's Small Business Development Center. We are heavily involved in College-wide programs like the Community Economic Development Initiative of Kentucky, the Food Systems Innovation Center, the Center for Crop Diversification, International Programs, Ag Equine Programs, and the Office of Diversity. We are collaborative and we are effective.

Shut Up and Smile
Freaking out about a speech? Smile, look at the audience, and keep quiet for 2 seconds, says T.J. Walker, president of Media Training Worldwide. It'll slow you down and create the impression that you're relaxed and in control. The audience will then feel more comfortable, leading you to actually be relaxed and in control. Now start talking. Unless you're a mime. In that case, as you were.

investing for the next 4 years of obamma-economy--
#1 think pharmacy medications
things like tranquilizers, sleeping pills, mood elevating drugs, anti-depressents and anti psycotics are all going to be big sellers in the 2013-2016 period.
anything that treats heart burn, indigestion like prevacid and all the other makes of ant-acids are having a big boom in sales.
durable goods are going to be slow sellers except for firearms and ammunition.
expect a run on consumable commodities and soaring prices.
metal prices and oil will continue to climb as the dollar drops in value.
China is currently experiencing a slow down with factory closings and hundreds of miles of prime real-estate that is empty. think factories, apartment complexes and shopping malls --brand new ones with no clients and no prospects of clients anytime in the near future.
building in apartments, factories, retail markets all look to be slowing down to a crawl.
china is bracing for an economic crash similar to the US crash of 2008 only much bigger.
if china has a real-estate market/banking crash there is not enough capitol anywhere to bail them out.
this is going to be a real problem for the USA.
if china becomes tight with their money who is going to pump up the worthless paper obamma and co is printing? even worse 'electronically" adding to the assets sheet to borrow more against--????
wall-street is reacting to all this by pretending to be having another boom. the problem with wall-street is they only papered over the last big crash, if there is another crash in the works uncle sugar may not be able to bail them out if china has cut the US off.

The signs are all over the state buckle up or deal with the law.
"it's not about going out writing tickets, and trying to make somebody's day bad, it's about trying to write the tickets to get the point across , it's important, it's a life saving tool.
A tool that helps keep drivers safe.
And riding along with law enforcement it didn't take long to find drivers not following the seatbelt law.
"That was in a matter to twenty four minutes there was one person not wearing their seatbelt at all, and one wearing it at all," says Officer Adam Davis.
And officers say even if you forget all it takes is a simple reminder.
"If that would make a sticky note, put it in their car, put it on the dash. And over time you will develop the habit," says Officer Adam Davis.
A habit they say will save lives.
"I've worked an accidents where a subject was ejected from the vehicle and if they weren't ejected, they possibly would have lived through the accident," says Sheriff's Deputy Mike Stacy
And buckling up is something officers want to ensure parents teach to their children.
"A lot of times when you're married and you got a lot of other things going on in the vehicle, it's the first thing I do stop at the end of the driveway, put the seatbelts on or we don't roll," says Sheriff's Deputy Mike Stacy
And once you break the law police will issue you a ticket immediately.
If you are issued a ticket you could possibly face a fine or appear before a judge.
But officers say if you take the simple steps to buckle up before you drive all of those consequences can be avoided.

Rated 4.7 out of 5Â by 15 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Karinka Beautiful design, disappointing practicality I've had a long-time love affair with Free People, but I've gotta be honest--sometimes the practicality of some of their pieces are a bit lacking. While this cardigan is beautifully designed, I was under the impression, based off of the photos, that this would be a bit heavier and warmer. Disappointingly however, the cardigan is extremely thin, almost to a point where light can pass through it, and the pom-poms are very lackluster and flat. I love the look and the endless possibilities of how you can wear it, but it won't keep me warm. I feel like it would be a better piece for early Fall, when the temperature is still moderate. 12.17.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by jeg Super soft and comfy I will be hiding this in the back of my closet, because if my 18 year old daughter finds it she will make it hers. This cardigan is so pretty, so soft and comfortable, perfect length, I absolutely love it. It felt so good I didn't want to take it off. Love the quality I get from FP. They never fail me. Buy it. 11.8.2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by TatieFPSantanaRow Festive! This cardigan is a little tight through the shoulder and arms, if you are big into layering like I am I suggest sizing up so you have more room to fit sleeves under the card. Love the fit and length. Wish I bought it LAST holiday, all I can say is that I am glad they brought it back this year because it is one you do not want to pass up. So cute and festive and easy to wear with blue, black or brown jeansâ¦very versatile! 11.27.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Adw Cozy Cardi This sweater is very comfortable. The fit is true to size. The pom poms are a unique touch.I love cardigans with hoods so I had to have this. 11.20.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Sdr206 Gorg I bypassed this on the site but then saw it featured on the FP Facebook page and decided to go out my comfort zone. Happy I did (isn't that what always happens when we move out of our comfort zones? ;) Phenomenal print. One star off for being so thin. I'm a size 4 and got the small and it fits Just right w/ a sweatshirt under. So size up to layer under. Was very very excited to get this in the mail and it did not disappoint. 1.2.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by thistleprick Norwegian Princess its the perfect length and softness and is ridiculously beautiful! Its my new favorite sweater. I recommend getting a medium just for layering. 12.26.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Loveorhate It's perfect I so love this cardigan. The picture does not do the justice. Fits TTS, and it stands out. Beautiful color and design. My only complaint is that it could be thicker, otherwise it's perfect. 12.12.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by deeva27 long and lean When i saw this sweater online I completely passed it over. Well when I was in the store shopping it caught my eye and I tried it on. I am very top heavy and only 5'3" this sweater hangs perfectly and is a great length ( not too long like most things they make). I am so happy because it brings balance to my body and I get great compliments when I wear it. i am also glad that the pom poms are not big and full (they are a little flat) because it helps to not draw attention to the upper half of the body. Beautiful sweater! 12.1.2013

text: Has anyone heard of a bayonet that will fit an AR-15 Carbine (16" barrel)? I know that the standard AR/M-16 bayonet does not fit due to the longer exposed barrel length. Just wondering if someone has solved this dilemma...I'm sure most AR carbine owners wonder what use that bayonet lug is (other than looking evil). Am I missing something?

It's never a good idea to put much credence into a rumor, especially around April Fool's Day.
But there have been persistent rumors regarding the future of Aiken High School athletic director and head football coach Carey Johnson for a significant amount of time. In recent days, those rumors have increased, and there's speculation that Johnson might not be the Hornets' head coach by the end of the week, if not sooner.
As of Monday, there was no official word on the situation, making it unclear if there will be a change. Aiken High principal Garen Cofer confirmed that he and Johnson have been talking about the coach/athletic director's future.
Cofer told Aiken Standard senior writer Rob Novit those conversations have concerned "how long (Johnson) wants to continue and what he is interested in doing."
Without official confirmation, it's unclear whether Johnson is looking to step aside or is being pressured out. It's also uncertain if Johnson will be out just as head football coach or will be replaced as athletic director as well.
When contacted about the possibility of no longer serving as Aiken's head football coach after 18 seasons in the position, Johnson officially had no comment at the time. Johnson said when an official statement is made, he will speak about the situation. There is speculation that official word on Johnson's status will be released before the end of the week.
In his career as Hornets' head coach, Johnson has amassed a 135-88 overall record, a better than .600 winning percentage. Johnson's teams have made the playoffs 13 times and he was the defensive coordinator on Aiken's 1992 team that won a state championship. He also guided the Hornets to back-to-back appearances in the state championship game in 1999 and 2000, making the state semifinals three other times.
Although he's been a part of the program for more than two decades, the issue of Johnson's job security has been a topic of more discussion in recent years. That's because of the Hornets lack of success during the past few seasons.
Johnson's Hornets are coming off a 2-9 campaign, the worst season in his time as head coach. Aiken hasn't finished a season with a winning record since 2008, going 15-30 (.333) in the four years since. It has failed to qualify for the playoffs the past three seasons and hasn't won a postseason game since 2005.
"(This season) wasn't up to our expectations. ... We just need to make adjustments in the offseason and work hard to get better," Johnson said at the end of the 2012 season, not letting on that he might not return.
In spite of recent struggles, sources say Johnson – as well as any other Aiken High coach – wouldn't be removed from the post simply because of wins and losses. In Johnson's capacity as athletic director, most varsity-level sports have flourished in recent years; with the volleyball team, boys' tennis as well as boys' and girls' basketball squads all advancing deep into the playoffs. The one program that has consistently struggled has been his own football team.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Police say a paparazzo was hit by a car and killed after taking photos of Justin Bieber's Ferrari sports car in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles police Officer James Stoughton says the man died at a hospital Tuesday evening. Stoughton says Bieber was not in the car at the time.
Sgt. Rudy Lopez told the Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/ZTtuCt ) that the pop star's friend was driving the car when it was pulled over for a traffic stop. It was parked on a busy street when the photographer arrived.
Police say the man was struck by a car as he returned to his own car.
Stoughton says no charges are expected against the motorist who hit the man.
A call to a Bieber publicist was not immediately returned.

Michelle Obama's Rejected Official Portraits
Yesterday, the White House released Michelle Obama's new official portrait. And while she looks great, and it features her celebrated bangs, we've recently learned that there were other shots taken that featured alternate hairstyles for the First Lady! Never one to shy away from exposing a political scandal (no matter how coiffe-based) MAD is proud to share these…
Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Been Bad
Former Illinois Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. pled guilty to misusing $750,000 in campaign funds for personal expenses like Rolexes, fur capes and sports memorabilia (you know, the essentials). He won't be sentenced until late June, but he could face up to 57 months in prison! On the plus side, that'll give him a few months to stare at his autographed footballs while snuggled up in a sable fur poncho.
Dr. Drew's Upsetting New Book
When Mindy McCready died over the weekend, she became the fifth patient from Celebrity Rehab to commit suicide. It also put the show's host and creator, Dr. Drew, under scrutiny. Personally, we don't trust any doctor who uses their first name as their last one (We're looking at you, Dr. Phil!). And while we can't say they should throw the book at Dr. Drew for his years of exploiting celebrity addiction, we thought we'd at least throw this book at him.
MAD Responds to the Meteor Threat
The news outlets are rife with frantic reports about the meteor that exploded over Russia this past Friday and the asteroid that cruised by Earth later that day. But the danger of falling space debris has been on MAD's radar since 1998! As always, our attitude remains the same.

UFC president's suggestion to Ben Askren? Go to WSOF
"I wasn't even going to say this, because it sounds like I'm just s—ting on them, but there's just no competition for him over at Bellator," White told MMAjunkie. "There's competition for him at World Series of Fighting. This kid will probably sign with them. I don't know (since) they've got to come to an agreement and a deal. But if he does, there's actual competition for him there.""There's actual competition for him there," White said. "I think it's crazy that he's ranked in the top 10. He hasn't fought anybody and has no challenges. The best thing that could've ever happened to that kid was leaving Bellator. Now he has the opportunity to go to World Series of Fighting and show what he's got."

Poland, country of central Europe. Poland is located at a geographic crossroads that links the forested lands of northwestern Europe to the sea lanes of the Atlantic Ocean and the fertile plains of the Eurasian frontier. Now bounded by seven nations, Poland has waxed and waned over the centuries, buffeted by the forces of regional history. In the early Middle Ages, Poland's small principalities and townships were subjugated by successive waves of invaders, from Germans and Balts to Mongols. In the mid-1500s, united Poland was the largest state in Europe and perhaps the continent's most powerful nation. Yet two and a half centuries later, during the Partitions of Poland (1772–1918), it disappeared, parceled out among the contending empires of Russia, Prussia, and Austria.
Even at a time of national crisis, however, Polish culture remained strong; indeed, it even flourished, if sometimes far from home. Polish revolutionary ideals, carried by such distinguished patriots as Kazimierz Pułaski and Tadeusz Kościuszko, informed those of the American Revolution. The Polish constitution of 1791, the oldest in Europe, in turn incorporated ideals of the American and French revolutions. Poles later settled in great numbers in the United States, Canada, Argentina, and Australia and carried their culture with them. At the same time, Polish artists of the Romantic period, such as pianist Frédéric Chopin and poet Adam Mickiewicz, were leading lights on the European continent in the 19th century. Following their example, Polish intellectuals, musicians, filmmakers, and writers continue to enrich the world's arts and letters.
Restored as a nation in 1918 but ravaged by two world wars, Poland suffered tremendously throughout the course of the 20th century. World War II was particularly damaging, as Poland's historically strong Jewish population was almost wholly annihilated in the Holocaust. Millions of non-Jewish Poles also died, victims of more partition and conquest. With the fall of the Third Reich, Poland effectively lost its independence once again, becoming a communist satellite state of the Soviet Union. Nearly a half century of totalitarian rule followed, though not without strong challenges on the part of Poland's workers, who, supported by a dissident Catholic Church, called the economic failures of the Soviet system into question.
In the late 1970s, beginning in the shipyards of Gdańsk, those workers formed a nationwide movement called Solidarity (Solidarność). Despite the arrest of Solidarity's leadership, its newspapers kept publishing, spreading its values and agenda throughout the country. In May 1989 the Polish government fell, along with communist regimes throughout eastern Europe, beginning Poland's rapid transformation into a democracy.
That transformation has not been without its difficulties, as the Nobel Prize-winning poet Wisława Szymborska wrote a decade later:
I came to the paradoxical conclusion that some workers had it much easier in the Polish People's Republic. They didn't have to pretend. They didn't have to be polite if they didn't feel like it. They didn't have to suppress their exhaustion, boredom, irritation. They didn't have to conceal their lack of interest in other people's problems. They didn't have to pretend that their back wasn't killing them when their back was in fact killing them. If they worked in a store, they didn't have to try to get their customers to buy things, since the products always vanished before the lines did.
By the turn of the 21st century, Poland was a market-based democracy, abundant in products of all kinds and a member of both NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) and the European Union (EU), allied more strongly with western Europe than with eastern Europe but, as always, squarely between them.
A land of striking beauty, Poland is punctuated by great forests and rivers, broad plains, and tall mountains. Warsaw (Warszawa), the country's capital, combines modern buildings with historic architecture, most of which was heavily damaged during World War II but has since been faithfully restored in one of the most thoroughgoing reconstruction efforts in European history. Other cities of historic and cultural interest include Poznań, the seat of Poland's first bishopric; Gdańsk, one of the most active ports on the busy Baltic Sea; and Kraków, a historic centre of arts and education and the home of Pope John Paul II, who personified for the Polish their country's struggle for independence and peace in modern times.
Poland lies at the physical centre of the European continent, approximately between latitudes 49° and 55° N and longitudes 14° and 24° E. Irregularly circular in shape, it is bordered to the north by the Baltic Sea, to the northeast by Russia and Lithuania, and to the east by Belarus and Ukraine. To the south the border follows the watershed of the Beskid (Beskidy), Carpathian (Karpaty), and Sudeten (Sudety) mountains, which separate Poland from Slovakia and the Czech Republic, while to the west the Neisse (Nysa Łużycka) and Oder (Odra) rivers define the border with Germany. Its current frontiers, stretching for 2,198 miles (3,538 km), were drawn in 1945. Except for its southern mountainous regions, the country consists almost entirely of lowlands within the North European Plain.
The natural landscape of Poland can be divided broadly into three relief groups: the lowlands, the highlands, and the mountains. The eastern extremes of Poland display characteristics common to eastern Europe, but the rest of the country is linked to western Europe by structure, climate, and the character of its vegetation. The lowland characteristics predominate: the average elevation of the whole country is only 568 feet (173 metres) above sea level, while more than three-fourths of the land lies below 650 feet (198 metres).
Poland's relief was formed by the actions of Ice Age glaciers, which advanced and receded over the northern part of the country several times during the Pleistocene Epoch (from about 2,600,000 to 11,700 years ago). The great and often monotonous expanses of the Polish lowlands, part of the North European Plain, are composed of geologically recent deposits that lie over a vast structural basin.
In the southern part of the country, by contrast, older and more diverse geologic formations are exposed. The mountainous arc of the Carpathians, dating from the mountain-building Paleogene and Neogene periods (from about 65 to 2.6 million years ago), dominates the topography. Around the northern rim of the Carpathians lie a series of structural basins, separating the mountain belt proper from a much older structural mass, or foreland, that appears in the relief patterns of the region as the Bohemian Massif, the Sudeten, and the Little Poland Uplands (Wyżyna Małopolska).
The relief structure can be divided more specifically into a series of east-west–trending zones. To the north lie the swamps and dunes of the Baltic Sea coast; south of these is a belt of morainic terrain with thousands of lakes, the southern boundary of which marks the limit of the last ice sheet. The third zone consists of the central lowlands, whose minimal relief was created by streams issuing from the retreating glaciers. This zone is the Polish heartland, the site of agriculture in places where loess has been deposited over the relatively infertile fluvioglacial deposits. The fourth zone is made up of the older mountains and highlands to the south; though limited in extent, it offers spectacular scenery. Along the southern border of the country are the Sudeten and Carpathian ranges and their foothills.
The coastal plain
The Baltic Coastal Plain stretches across northern Poland from Germany to Russia, forming a low-lying region built of various sediments. It is largely occupied by the ancient province of Pomerania (Pomorze), the name of which means "along the sea." The scarcely indented Baltic coastline was formed by wave action after the retreat of the ice sheet and the raising of sea levels. The Pomeranian (Pomorska) Bay in the west and the Gulf of Gdańsk in the east are the two major inlets. In the southern portion of the former, two islands block off the Szczeciński Lagoon (Zalew Szczeciński), into which the Oder River discharges its waters. In the Gulf of Gdańsk, the Vistula (Wisła) River forms a large delta. Sandbars, on which the winds have created large dunes, line much of the coast, separating the coastal lakes and lagoons from the sea.
The main urban centres are the ports of Szczecin (German: Stettin) on the lower Oder and Gdańsk (German: Danzig) and Gdynia in the east. The central portion of the Baltic Coastal Plain is scantily populated—there are only small fishing ports, of which Kołobrzeg is the most important—and the landscape has a desolate beauty.
The lake region and central lowlands
The belt immediately to the south of the coastal plain is a varied landscape with lakes and hills of glacial origin. Wide river valleys divide the region into three parts: the Pomeranian Lakeland (Pojezierze Pomorskie); the Masurian (Mazurskie) Lakeland, east of the lower Vistula; and the Great Poland (Wielkopolskie) Lakeland. The larger settlements and the main communications routes of this zone lie in and along the river valleys; the remainder of the area is mostly wooded and thinly populated. Only the eastern portion of the Great Poland Lakeland has a developed agriculture.
The extensive central lowlands contain isolated relief features shaped by the oldest glaciations, but their character is generally flat and monotonous. The postglacial lakes have long since been filled in, and glacial outwash masks the weakly developed meltwater valley channels. The basins of the main rivers divide the area into the Silesian (Śląska) Lowland, which lies in the upper Oder; the southern Great Poland Lowland, which lies in the middle Warta River basin; and the Mazovian (Mazowiecka) and Podlasian (Podlaska) lowlands, which lie in the middle Vistula basin. Lower Silesia and Great Poland are important agricultural areas, but many parts of the central lowlands also have large industrial centres. Warsaw, the capital, situated on the middle Vistula, is the most prominent.

I'll be in the corner with a book today, over by the fire, if anyone wishes to join me.
*wanders in for a cup of peppermint green tea*
I've got time off until the 21st. This is like a mini-vacation. I can work at home on my own stuff.
I'll be off in the corner booth if anyone wants to join me.
Good Monday afternoon. Kind of got caught up in chores this morning. Hope all had a good weekend. Be careful in upcoming blizzards, rains, and colder weather. Warmth continues in sunny (?) Fl. Guess the clouds rolled in for the week.

Hello Tet!
I apologize for my absence. Last week I lost a friend to cancer. This brought up feelings about my Mom's sudden death 3 years ago. Anyway, I just wasn't up for online stuff.
But I am now. I was accepted as a write for Addicting Info, a political news/blog site. Yeah, I write for Daily Kos, too, but AI pays me! Okay, yeah, not very much and its on a per-view basis but, hey! -- writing and getting paid for it. :::happy dance:::
Here is the site: http://www.addictinginfo.org/
I'm writing as "T. Steelman" and, yes, it's Left-leaning though we do have a few Republicans that write for it. Tonight I got a scoop. Keep your fingers crossed for me to get lots of views!
Wishing everyone a great week!
