Characterization and Modulation of the Natural Antibody-Mediated Immune Response to Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Cells that originate in human embryos, commonly referred to as human embryonic stem cells (HESCs) present almost unlimited potential to replace damaged cells and tissues in a host of diseases by virtue of their ability to be converted into any cell type. The immune system in humans that is responsible for primary defense against infectious agents may prevent the transplantation of HESCs. Most HESC lines from federal and nonfederal sources are grown using culture systems that require animal products. The use of animal products results in the expression of a foreign sugar on the surface of HESCs that causes them to be destroyed by the human immune system. The antibodies that destroy HESCs are called "natural antibodies." Healthy humans acquire these antibodies after consuming dairy products and red meat. The persistence of these foreign sugars on cells and tissues made from HESCs would be expected to cause immediate rejection after these cells or tissues are transplanted into humans. Efforts are underway to design alternative animal free culture systems that will prevent HESCS from acquiring animal sugars; however, it is not clear whether use of these new animal free systems will eliminate HESC destruction by the immune system. It is possible that there are other foreign substances that may be present on the surface of HESCs that would also activate the human immune system even though they do not come from animal products. We propose to compare the natural antibody response in HESCs grown with and without animal products to determine whether animal free culture conditions are effective in eliminating the innate immune response of humans to HESCs. We also plan to define the pathways that lead to the destruction of HESCS that are exposed to antibodies in human blood. We will examine HESC lines from federal and nonfederal sources. This proposal would therefore not be eligible for federal funds. In addition, we plan to transfer a protective gene into HESCs in order to prevent them from being destroyed when they come into contact with natural antibodies in human blood. The ability to prevent the immune system from destroying transplanted HESCs by altering the culture conditions or by transferring protective genes into HESCs will be an important first step in advancing HESC research to the point where it could be used to help patients. The experiments in this proposal will also help to develop new diagnostic tools that will be used to confirm that the newly designed animal free culture systems are both safe and effective before using them in clinical trials. Similarly, information from gene transfer experiments and animal free culture systems from this proposal will help to create new therapies that will benefit adults and children with autoimmune and/or degenerative diseases such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease as well as cardiac injury and spinal cord trauma.
In passing Proposition 71, Californians made the landmark decision to commit $3 billion to human embryonic stem cell (HESC) experiments and in doing so created the largest-ever state-supported scientific research initiative in the country. The projects supported by this measure will likely put California at the forefront of the HESC field, far ahead of existing HESC research programs in the United States, whether privately or publicly funded. By devoting resources to the advancement of HESC research, Californians are ensuring that they will be well positioned to benefit from new technological developments as bench research is carried into translational studies and ultimately into clinical trials. Many Californians suffer from such conditions as diabetes, Parkinson's disease, cardiac injury or spinal cord trauma. These patients may someday undergo transplantation of HESC-derived cells or tissues as a means of regenerating damaged and/or diseased organs. Until now almost all HESC lines from federal and nonfederal sources have been grown in culture systems that require the use of animal products. Recent reports have revealed that cells grown in this manner possess nonhuman sugars on their surfaces. These animal sugars make the cells vulnerable to destruction by preformed "natural" antibodies in human blood shortly after transplantation. Several groups are working hard to design new animal free systems that may prevent destruction of HESCs bearing these animal sugars. Whether these animal free systems will eliminate HESC destruction by preformed antibodies has not yet been confirmed. HESCs grown in newly designed animal free systems may not possess animal sugars on their surfaces; however, they may possess other targets that fail to be seen as "self" by the immune system. The studies in this proposal will benefit Californians by carefully assessing the safety and efficacy of newly created animal free systems before they are used for therapeutic purposes. Additional studies will focus on preventing attack and destruction of HESCs by preformed antibodies by using gene therapy to help HESCs to make the prototypic protective protein, heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). By transferring the genetic machinery needed to make HO-1 into cells, tissues and organs before they are transplanted, investigators have been able to prolong survival and prevent rejection. The ability to prevent rejection through the transfer of a protective gene into HESCs will benefit Californians by advancing HESC-related research. The ability to overcome attack and destruction of transplanted HESCs is an important first step that will bring this technology closer to the citizens of California. Studies designed to better understand and prevent destruction of transplanted HESCs by the immune system will ultimately bring the dream of a cure closer to a reality for countless adults and children in California.

Singapore joins growing mermaid trend worldwide
The 21-year-old student from National University of Singapore, Cara Nicole Neo, is the city-state's first ever mermaid. The English Literature student calls herself "Mermaid Syrena" and she loves to don her shiny fish tail as a hobby, and sometimes earning pocket money from it as she entertains guests at private party, or when she poses for photo shoots or functions. But she is not the only mermaid around. Others have surfaced across the globe as well, including male mermaids, also called "Mermens".

To improve portfolio yields in a climate where other fixed income instruments are showing historically low yields, many investors have turned to European corporate bond markets in recent years. Meanwhile, corporate issuers in Europe are increasingly looking to access capital markets as a result of balance sheet constraints in the bank loan market, which they have traditionally relied upon for a large part of their financing needs. Upcoming regulatory changes and a desire for greater operational efficiencies within asset managers have combined to form an ongoing and significant increase in the electronic trading of European credit instruments.
The shift towards e-trading in European credit bonds corresponds with widespread change in the investment patterns and workflows of "real-money" institutions. European dealers are increasingly looking to electronic platforms to service clients' flow business in vanilla products—precisely where there is greatest liquidity. Growth in electronic trading of investors' flow business has boosted e-trading volumes overall—estimated now to represent well over 35% of the European credit market, up from less than 20% just a couple of years ago.
Access to liquidity lies at the heart of successful e-trading platforms. There has been a sizeable increase in the number of market makers providing prices in European credit over electronic marketplaces such as Tradeweb. Sell-side participants' desire to win volume through e-platforms has led to significant improvements in the quality of electronic liquidity compared to that offered by phone. This is especially evident in recent months, and has not necessarily reflected conditions in the market overall. There is indeed an increasing buy-side perception that a growing proportion of overall sell-side liquidity is now being offered electronically as opposed to voice trading.
Yet, for institutional investors, operational efficiency is almost as important as liquidity. Throughout the entire trading cycle of price discovery, execution and post-trade processing, electronic trading platforms provide ready access to trade information, analytics, and price transparency. And both buy- and sell-side institutions can fully integrate electronic trading platforms into their existing workflow systems.
This automation must not come at the cost of flexibility. Buy-side traders can tailor tickets to their precise requirements on electronic platforms and request prices from specific dealers (the "request-for-quote" or RFQ model). This auction-like process gives buy-side traders fast and transparent price discovery, simultaneously putting dealers into competition. Increased competition optimises pricing efficiency and helps the buy-side demonstrate best execution.
More sophisticated electronic trading platforms are also flexible enough to allow buy-side investors to execute multiple trades concurrently from a single list of orders across multiple asset classes. The time saved allows asset managers to invest resources more efficiently to boost overall productivity and performance.
The need for flexibility in trading these instruments has become increasingly important as both regulatory and macroeconomic factors coalesce, reducing overall market liquidity. This has led various market participants recently to explore new price discovery and execution models which, if successful, could increasingly challenge the way business is done and even the current market structure.
However, the common thread running through the fundamental changes underway in the marketplace is the greater use of electronic trading. Whilst the main driver stimulating the willingness to look at new ways to execute trades may be regulatory and macroeconomic change, the need for more efficient and cost-effective trade execution is also at the core of these moves. In other words, the evolution happening today is underpinned by some of the same drivers that have been central toward the increased use of electronic trading across fixed income markets for more than ten years.
It is clear that the fixed income markets are becoming an increasingly dynamic and exciting place in which to operate, especially in the burgeoning electronic marketplace for European credit. This presents us with challenges, but also many opportunities to contribute to the accelerating evolution of the market. As electronic trading continues to meet the needs of financial institutions seeking better liquidity, increased efficiency and improved performance, marketplaces like Tradeweb will continue to partner with the buy- and sell-side to drive innovation in the new regulatory and economic environment.

To the Editor: In their article on the diagnostic characteristics of D-dimer assay and alveolar dead-space measurement (ADSM) for rapid exclusion of pulmonary embolism (PE), Dr Kline and colleagues1 conclude that this diagnostic strategy "could have obviated pulmonary vascular imaging [PVI] in 43% of hemodynamically stable ED [emergency department] patients with suspected PE." This would only be true if ED physicians ordered this combined test with the same frequency that they now order PVI tests. D-dimer assay and ADSM were only evaluated in patients for whom the decision had been made to order PVI. Kline and colleagues mention that current diagnostic tests for PE, that is, PVI, "often require hours to perform, add substantial cost to the evaluation, and expose the patient to ionizing radiation. Moreover, pulmonary vascular imaging tests may not be available quickly 24 hours per day in many facilities." In contrast, D-dimer assay and ADSM could be available around the clock, are inexpensive, and are noninvasive.

President Obama
Like many, I hoped McCain would win, but intellectually knew he would lose. We were asking America to do one recently uncharacteristic thing in this election: choose age, experience, self-sacrifice, and competence over perpetual adolescence, indulgence, inexperience, and energy. We were asking Baby Boomers – let me emphasize BABY here – and their younger minions to hand power backward to an older generation, and specifically | Read More »
People are concentrating on the slogan "It's the economy, stupid!" again, but they fail to see why the economy's troubles are based on the assault on masculinity, which radical feminists started decades ago.

Class warfare in America has become worse than ever before, thanks to the Dems and their constant agitprop about "tax cuts for the WEALTHY" and "tax breaks for BIG CORPORATIONS." I am reminded of class-warfare complaints in England during the 1930's about "the idle rich."

I have written various pieces (q.v.) about the few bishops of the Catholic Church who stood up to Pelosi and Biden last month about abortion, which brought back the debate about excommunicating leftist Catholics (oxymoron alert!) who support all sorts of issues inimical to Catholic/Christian teachings, or at least denying them Communion at Mass, a sort of half-way step toward excommunication.

Fox News now has testimony from people on the ground and are reporting what they say actually happened on the ground at Benghazi on "9/11" 2012 when Ambassador Chris Stevens and other US staff were murdered.
• Everything was quiet at 8.30pm. There was no "protest" or anti-video "mob."
• There was an explosion at the gate about 9.30pm.
• The Consulate came under military-style attack.
• There was an urgent request from the CIA annex (about a mile from the Consulate) for military back-up during the attack on the U.S. consulate and subsequent attack several hours later on the annex itself which was denied by the CIA chain of command.
• The same CIA command told the CIA operators twice to "stand down" rather than help the ambassador's team when shots were heard at approximately 9:40 p.m.
• Former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods was part of a small team who was at the CIA annex where Ambassador Chris Stevens and his team came under attack.
• When he and others heard the shots fired, they informed CIA command at the annex they were hearing gunfire and requested permission to go to the consulate to help. They were told to "stand down," according to sources familiar with the exchange. Soon after, they were again told to "stand down."
• Woods and at least two others ignored those orders and made their way to the consulate which at that point was on fire. Shots were exchanged.
• The rescue team from the CIA annex evacuated those who remained at the consulate and Sean Smith, who had been killed in the initial attack.
• They could not find the ambassador and returned to the CIA annex at about midnight.
• At midnight they again called for military support and help because they were taking fire at the CIA safe house (annex). The request was denied.
• There was no communications problem at the annex; the team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters.
• One member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA annex. The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground in intense firefights. The operators were calling in coordinates of where the Libyan forces were firing from.
• CIA spokeswoman Jennifer Youngblood, though, denied the claims that requests for support were turned down.
"We can say with confidence that the Agency reacted quickly to aid our colleagues during that terrible evening in Benghazi," she said. "Moreover, no one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate.
•The fighting at the CIA annex went on for more than four hours — enough time for any planes based in Sigonella Air base, 480 miles away, to arrive.
• Two separate Tier One Special operations forces were told to wait, among them Delta Force operators.
• A Special Operations team, or CIF which stands for Commanders in Extremis Force, operating in Central Europe had been moved to Sigonella, Italy, but they were never told to deploy.
• A second force that specializes in counterterrorism rescues was on hand at Sigonella, according to senior military and intelligence sources, that could have flown to Benghazi in less than two hours.
• Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told reporters at the Pentagon on Thursday (25 Oct) there was not a clear enough picture of what was occurring on the ground in Benghazi to send help. ??????
• There were two military surveillance drones redirected to Benghazi shortly after the attack on the consulate. They were already in the vicinity. The second surveillance craft was sent to relieve the first drone, perhaps due to fuel issues. Both were capable of sending real time visuals back to U.S. officials in Washington, D.C.
• Any U.S. official or agency with the proper clearance, including the White House Situation Room, State Department, CIA, Pentagon and others, could call up that video in real time on their computers.
• Tyrone Woods was later joined at the scene by fellow former Navy SEAL Glen Doherty, who was sent in from Tripoli as part of a Global Response Staff or GRS that provides security to CIA case officers and provides countersurveillance and surveillance protection. They were killed by a mortar shell at 4 a.m. Libyan time, nearly seven hours after the attack on the consulate began.
• A motorcade of dozens of Libyan vehicles, some mounted with 50 caliber machine guns, belonging to the February 17th Brigades, a Libyan militia which is friendly to the U.S., finally showed up at the CIA annex at approximately 3 a.m.
• An American Quick Reaction Force sent from Tripoli had arrived at the Benghazi airport at 2 a.m. (four hours after the initial attack on the consulate) and was delayed for 45 minutes at the airport because they could not at first get transportation, allegedly due to confusion among Libyan militias who were supposed to escort them to the annex.
• The American special operators, Woods, Doherty and at least two others were part of the Global Response Staff, a CIA element, based at the CIA annex and were protecting CIA operators who were part of a mission to track and repurchase arms in Benghazi that had proliferated in the wake of Muammar Qaddafi's fall.
• Part of their mission was to find the more than 20,000 missing MANPADS, or shoulder-held missiles capable of bringing down a commercial aircraft.
• There is testimony the team inside the CIA annex captured three Libyan attackers but was forced to hand them over to the Libyans. U.S. officials do not know what happened to those three attackers.
• Ambassador Chris Stevens was in Benghazi that day to be present at the opening of an English-language school being started by the Libyan farmer who helped save an American pilot who had been shot down by pro-Qaddafi forces during the initial war to overthrow the regime. That farmer saved the life of the American pilot and the ambassador wanted to be present to launch the Libyan rescuer's new school.
The Weekly Standard is reporting today in breaking news that General Petraeus is adamant that "No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate."
This poses the question, WHO in the US government decided NOT to send in military assets to help.
• The secretary of defense would not make such a decision on his own.
• The Wekkly Standard says this would have been a presidential decision. There was presumably a rationale for such a decision. What was it? When and why? "…did President Obama decide against sending in military assets to help the Americans in need?"
For more than 18 days the Obama Administration at the highest level told the American people this was simply a mob protest out of control and was motivated by a 13 sec. video clip. This was a lie. They also maintained when this was exposed that they 'did not have enough information to call it a terrorist attack.' This is also a lie, they had emails directly from the Ambassador and the CIA, as well as other security traffic during the attack as it happened. Military aircraft also flew into Benghazi and someone had to have ordered that. Based on what?
The following people spun these lies for 18 days and continue still:
- President Obama (including in the second Prez. Debate)
- Vice -P Joe Biden
- Sec of State Hilary Clinton
- UN American Ambassador Rice
- White House Press Sec Jay Carney
At the most generous level, this was an unmitigated security debacle on "9/11" that continued for two weeks and the Commander-in-Chief as he likes to be called (especially about 'getting bin Laden) was 'all-at- sea.' If only he was, perhaps on a Carrier off the Tripoli coast rather than in Vegas fundraising or playing golf.
Prediction: there will be top level sacking/s by Monday to take the heat off Obama's potential reelection in 10 days time. These unfortunates will take the fall for the Libyan 'Watergate.'
In another ghastly parallel to this mess, is the Liberal media white-out on coverage of the Libya 9/11 crisis, avoiding it to protect President Obama, and deny the American people the truth. This is a failure of the US fourth estate in favour of factional party political allegiance. It is an utter disgrace.
There are now two governmental inquiries and the details will all out, as they did during the Republican Iran–Contra Affair under President Reagan and Bush Senior.

Perhaps more than any working directors, Belgium's Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne suffer from what might called "Ho Hum, Another Masterpiece" syndrome. The brothers are so consistently good, and so dedicated to the same themes -- and even the same location, their native Seraing -- that it's easy for critics to become jaded, or at least less excited, with each now movie. But "Two Days, One Night," which had its worldwide unveiling at the Cannes Film Festival today, is stoking the fires anew, aided by Marion Cotillard's central performance, which has quickly become the frontrunner for Cannes' acting prize.
The plot of "Two Days, One Night" is simple, almost schematic, as is often the case with the Dardennes: Cotillard's work colleagues are given a choice to pick between a thousand-Euro bonus and Cotillard keeping her job, and she must spend a weekend trying to convince just over half of them to vote her way. But putting Cotillard in the lead, rather than the Dardennes' favored method of working with nonprofessional actors, is a gamble that seems to pay off, with several critics calling the movie the Dardennes' best and prompting talk of an unprecedented third Palme d'Or for the brothers.
"Two Days, One Night" has been acquired for U.S. distribution by Sundance Selects. It does not yet have a release date.
Reviews of "Two Days, One Night"
Eric Kohn, Indiewire
Belgian sibling directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne are best known for taut, bittersweet tales involving the struggles of working class characters captured in a naturalistic style that creates an immediate sense of involvement in their lives. To that end, their latest effort "Two Days, One Night" boils down their appeal to its primal essence: Set over the course of a weekend in which a depressed young mother struggles to save her job, its deceptively simple premise belies a satisfying demonstration of their distinctive talent.
Scott Foundas, Variety
Rich in the Dardennes' favored themes of work, family and the value of money, and infused with the suspense of a ticking-clock thriller, "Two Days" may be dismissed by some as more of the same from the Belgian siblings who rarely stray far from the industrial port town of Seraing. Yet within their circumscribed world, the Dardennes once again find a richness of human experience that dwarfs most movies made on an epic canvas.
David Sexton, Evening Standard
Compared with nearly every other scenario behind a feature film these days, it seems such an ordinary, small-scale problem -- but it's as involving as any do-or-die thriller. Some eminent rogue said the art of cinema consisted of finding a pretty woman and pointing a camera at her. Most social realists forget that. Not the Dardennes, not here.
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
It is another great performance from Marion Cotillard, who does not look out of place, like a starry A-lister, in the more austere Dardenne habitat. She is restrained and dignified, and again Cotillard shows what a marvelous technical actor she is: every nuance and detail is readably present on her face. She is compelling and moving -- and so is the film.
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
While the setup might seem the basis for a look at people's venal natures, and their inability to think beyond personal gain, the Dardennes are unfailingly compassionate filmmakers. In casual observations full of small but telling details, we see one person after another engaged in his or her own struggle, many of them in immigrant families, working two jobs or with spouses on unemployment.
Dave Calhoun, Time Out
As filmmakers the Dardennes are never less than reliable, yet still "Two Days, One Night" feels like one of their best, up there with "The Child" or "Rosetta" in its cast-iron sense of purpose, searing relevance and understanding of how tough it is for all of us, especially the less well-off, to do the right thing in our everyday lives.
David Jenkins, Little White Lies
Down to the marrow of its subject matter, this is a film which examines the notion that, if one is fully-attuned to fine nuance, that genuine repetition is in fact beyond the capabilities of the human body and mind. If you're seeing the same film ad infinitum, you'd probably do well to look a little closer.
Lee Marshall, Screen Daily
While it may lack the breathless dramatic energy of earlier works like "La Promesse" or "L'Enfant," this is still a powerful, finely scripted issue movie, made all the more incisive by Marion Cotillard's raw performance as a woman fighting to save her job while suffering from depression.
Robbie Collin, Telegraph
Another hugely admirable entry in the Dardenne canon: nothing all that new, perhaps, but as thoughtful, humane and superbly composed as we have, very fortunately, come to expect from them.
Peter Labuza, Film Stage
What separates "Two Days, One Night" from just another tale of a poor woman in desperate need is that the Dardennes have also, rather subtly, rendered a stunning portrait of marriage on the brink.
John Bleasdale, CineVue
"Two Days, One Night" is well made, and Cotillard and the rest of the cast give assured performances, but its optimism is desperate. By no means the Dardennes' best work, one wonders if they shouldn't perhaps stray outside of their comfort zone.

However, the way it is being done is causing a bit of controversy. The water will be taken from Canton Lake near Enid.
The Army Corps of Engineers is expected to start releasing the water Wednesday morning, but those opposed to the plan fear it will cause Canton Lake to nearly dry up.

"#Come gather 'round you Walsall folk, come make a mighty crowd…"Posted: 27 August, 2012 Filed under: General Info, Random Stuff 1 Comment
And they did.
A few hundred people came to watch the three performances of Robin Hood and the Giant on Saturday and as far as I'm aware a good time was had by all – even by the audiences that had to briefly shelter under cover when the heavens opened upon our playing space. I have already seen plenty of photos kicking around facebook from the show, hopefully these will also find themselves onto a publicly accessible site at some point (although these already are accessible to all). I noticed a fair few videos being filmed as well so hopefully they too will surface. There was a professional group of archivists taking pics and filming the shows and I will post up links to these when they have been edited and uploaded.
If you have any footage, stills or video, of our performance, please feel free to upload it somewhere and tell me or the guys at the Bayard's Colts Project.
Although the show was tiring, it was very rewarding. During our brief processional following the first performance the Mayor of Walsall reached out to shake my hand, which I can only assume means he enjoyed my role – probably the bits where I was dead and lying in the street. My favourite critique of all time came via one of my fellow cast members, Tony Barrett – the Tat Man for those who saw the show, as he tried to get some audience feedback from one child. Apparently the conversation went something like this:
Tat Man – "Did you enjoy that?"
Child – "Yeah."
Tat Man – "What was your favourite part?"
Child – "When 'e died."
Tat Man – "You mean the Giant?"
Child – "Nah. Robin Hood."
Tat Man – "Why did you like it when Robin died?"
Child – "'Coz he was a show-off!"
With comments like that I think it's safe to say I did the job that was put in front of me… and I had a bloody fun time while I was doing it!
The next play in the Bayard's Colts cycle of mummery, The Alchemist and The Devil will be performed on Saturday 10th November. Rehearsals will begin on Wednesday 3rd October. If you would like to be involved then please get in contact with the director, Glen Buglass. His details can be found here (second set of details on that page).
I'll leave you to enjoy your Bank Holiday Monday now. Have fun whatever you're doing and I'll bring you another thrilling installment of stuff I do next week.

OK, not directly C&V, but I did see and talk to a guy on a 1973 Raleigh Twenty folder!
Today was the event that those of us in the Hudson Valley of NY have waited almost 20 years for. Some crazy people once presented a plan to turn an old rail line and the mighty bridge that spans the river into a linear park, and today it happened! I rode the newest segment of the Dutchess Rail Trail a few weeks ago, and today we walked (way too crowded to consider riding) the 1.25 mile bridge and feeder path.
I wrote more about the day on the Northeast Board, so will just leave you with the web link. I'll get some pictures up when I have time to get them off the camera.
An incredible experience being part of the grand opening celebration!

Mixed emotions for 'Noles fans as Bowden bows out
Published: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 11:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 11:24 p.m.
Dadgummit. They got Bobby.
After three years of writing his coaching obituary within the fine print of Jimbo Fishers contract, Bobby Bowden buckled under the pressure of a Seminole football nation that hadnt been this divided since Burt Reynolds bought that first set of awful garnet pants.
Thirty-four seasons after arriving, and coaching past his 80th birthday, Bowden will relinquish what was left of his duties to Fisher and wander toward higher ground.
And Seminole fans are left with mixed emotions.
They want to remember the energetic coach who combed the country for top talent in the 1970s, never said no to a tough road trip, and built a program to be respected and mostly feared by the late 1980s and throughout the 90s.
What they want to forget is a .500 team that has done little more recently than break a three-year losing streak to Wake Forest and whip BYU at altitude.
Truth be told, excitement evolved into resentment the day Bowden tapped his son to succeed Mark Richt as offensive coordinator following a 2000 season that signaled the end of a 14-year dynasty and put his rampages through the ACC in the rearview mirror.
That son wasnt Terry or Tommy, who had previously steered NCAA Division I-A programs through perfect seasons. The son was Jeff, who had the same frightened look as the poor sap who followed The Beatles onto the stage of The Ed Sullivan Show when hit with the gravity of the situation.
Once the menagerie of the last few years has given way to the memories of a time when FSU produced 11-win seasons and attracted five-star prospects who became first-round NFL draft choices, Bowdens place in history will be secure.
However, it will be difficult to forget 2009, when home rallies against Jacksonville State and Maryland were both necessary to gain bowl eligibility. For the record, it is the same season FSU had one player offensive guard Rodney Hudson selected to the 28-man All-ACC first team.
A decade ago, the Seminoles couldve lined up against an all-star team of the rest of the ACC and won handily.
It wouldve been so easy for Bowden to hang it up after the 2005 season, his last ACC title squad, when an Orange Bowl came down to a 26-23 loss to Penn State and Joe Paterno, the likely root of Bowdens recent stubbornness.
Paterno had come back from a span of four losing seasons in five years and has averaged 10 wins a year ever since.
The teeter-totter atop the list of career coaching victories has swung decidedly in Paternos favor over the past two seasons, and Bowden has always thought there is one more lightning strike remaining.
Then he visited Gainesville, and Florida won a 37-10 decision to up the Gators series win streak to six games.
Things arent always as they seem, however. Otherwise, Maggie Simpson would be of legal drinking age.
RANDOM THOUGHTS: Now we know Tiger Woods is better with a driver than as a driver. Let it be. This isnt Chappaquiddick. ... So eminent domain is about to pave the way for Brooklyn to secure property to lure the winless Nets, now co-coached by Kiki Vandeweghe and Del Harris? This is a sitcom waiting to happen.

In this society, we always want something new. We want something better than the last, and we want to be up on it before everybody else gets a whiff of it, and joins the trend.
I'm guilty of it myself. I've probably bought a new laptop four times in the four years I've been writing about the NBA. Why would that ever be necessary? Is a new laptop going to make me a better writer? Is it going to give me better ideas to present my thoughts on the NBA? No, of course it won't. But I still like to have the most up-to-date technology I can at my fingertips, literally.
I don't know why I like this new technology and I don't know why I crave it. To be honest, my last MacBook Pro was probably better than this one. It was perfect to type on and it had a great layout that I was very comfortable using. But I got greedy. I saw the opportunity to grab one with more updated specs and seized it. I wanted to be ahead of the technological curve.
This is kind of what we have going on in the world of point guard debates. For some godforsaken reason, we now have to debate every point guard matchup and figure out who is going to be the best one. We need to know which guy is a Hall of Fame player after two years in the league and which one would be best to build an entire franchise and marketing campaign around. With the rules being so favorable to the diminutive generals (not a shot at Avery Johnson) and forcing us to crave more complete players than just some Trent Dilfer type of floor leader who will uninspiringly make you wish you could find one damn YouTube-worthy highlight from each game (ABSOLUTELY a shot at Avery Johnson), it makes sense to want to have the latest and greatest point guard on your team.
With the emergence of Rajon Rondo, Russell Westbrook and Derrick Rose last season, the influx of insanely talented rookie point guards and the dominating nature of Deron Williams, we all seemed to forget about Chris Paul. A big part of this was due to injuries. He hurt his knee and it kept him out of almost half the games. Then Darren Collison became a fantasy basketball sensation, which caused everybody to lose their collective bowels and start wondering if the Hornets even needed Chris Paul. Deron Williams exploded at the end of the regular season, threw up some absurd performances in the playoffs and all of a sudden experts and pundits are proclaiming him to be hands down the best point guard in the NBA.
This is CHRIS PAUL!
CHRIS F'ING PAUL!
How did this happen? How did we move on so quickly to the latest fad when the best product on the market is still kicking ass and handing out career years to his teammates?
All he did was injure his knee. He didn't Greg Oden his knee. He didn't Shaun Livingston his knee. He didn't have Big Baby fall into it like an inebriated seal and Joe Theisman his knee. He tore the meniscus in his knee and you all decided to write his obituary and send him off on some slab of glacier to the cold Icelandic waters?
Do you know what he was doing during this time period when Darren Collison had you foolishly drooling and Deron Williams had you worshipping false point guard prophets? He was sitting there, absorbing all of this coverage. He was watching you be dismissive. Hell, he was probably relishing being passed over, just waiting for the day in which he could come back and shove his damn leadership and assists in your face.
This is Chris Paul. He's kind of an a-hole. That's not to say he's a mean guy or a bad guy by any means. But put him on the court and he's going to want to rip your heart out Temple of Doom style. He's going to fight Mike Tyson over which one of Lennox Lewis' kids he can eat first. This guy is competitive beyond any rational sense of what is okay and what isn't. I would be terrified of him in a fight because with his competitive nature, he's probably incapable of stopping until he knows the job is finished.
And you left him there stewing. Just waiting to attack. He was like Darth Maul in Star Wars: Episode 1 when he's taking on Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon at the end. There's the scene in which they get separated by some laser-infused, Kool-Aid partition. While Obi-Wan is trying to catch up to help out a meditating Qui-Gon, Darth Maul is just pacing back and forth, like a pit bull ready to make the 6'o'clock news after raiding an elementary school.
Throughout this entire time, people have just been kind enough to throw Chris Paul back into the conversation without any real proclamation that he's returned to his throne of best point guard in the league. Everyone has been looking for the new guy to be the best. Instead, you should have been preparing for the biblical apocalypse that he's going to hand down on the court this year. He's healthy now and he's almost completely in shape too. He has his teammates trying, filling in their roles and actually trying to play defense.
I saw David West show on a screen the other day on defense and it felt like I just saw Haley's Comet come chill out in my living room.
THIS is the affect Chris Paul returning in a healthy manner has had for the New Orleans Hornets. Maybe he wants to eventually be traded so he can have a real chance at a ring. Maybe he'll see the effort from this team, fall in love with their tenacity and willingness to do what it takes to rack up wins and decide N'Awlins is the place for him in his next contract. None of that really matters right now.
What matters is people took this man for granted, even though he's only 25 years old. We got lazy and we got caught up in the latest and hopefully greatest, instead of hoarding bottled water, batteries and Simpsons Uno so we don't get bored to death in the bunker we should have been building to prepare for his return to the court.
You know who wasn't prepared? James Jones.
Chris Paul killed James Jones with that crossover. He's dead now. It doesn't matter there was a charge called inexplicably after he killed James Jones. All that matters is that James' will and testament get doled out properly.
Chris Paul is back. He's the best point guard in the world and everybody needs to be ready to admit it. It's not a fluke really that the Hornets are 6-0. It's because Chris Paul is no longer hobbled with a knee injury.
After Chris Paul dismantled the Miami Heat with a 19-assist performance, LeBron James declared on Twitter that this nonsense needs to end.
Ultimately, it's okay to be impressed with what Rajon Rondo is doing. It's okay to want Derrick Rose to realize his potential or hope Russell Westbrook develops a jumper or wish Deron Williams would stop going to Supercuts to get his hair did.
The new fads are fun. You can grab a laser disc player. You get to play with your Furby. Go to town on your pogs. Just remember to not lose sight of who the best is right now.
Chris Paul is back. He never really left. And he's going to make you rue the day that you doubted he was still the best at what he does.

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Hi, I will be happy to assist you, and it is my goal to make you a very satisfied customer! This may take a few minutes, so thanks for your patience.
Did you complete the probate and receive and order from the court distributing the estate?
Okay, thanks for the information. So, is the probate still open?
I don't know what that means, sorry
Or did you never actually open a probate estate with the court?
That is correct
Probate is the court action legally required to transfer assets that your mother owned in her name only at the time of her death. Until that process is completed, those assets remain assets of her probate estate and you would not have any right to cash the checks. If I am understanding you correctly, you never completed a probate administration of her estate. If that is correct, then you would need to retain local counsel to assist you with probating your mother's estate. That would give you rights to her property, including the residual income.
The Arizona State Bar Association's website is a good place to check for a lawyer referral service. You might also try www.martindale.com. That is also a very good website for locating local counsel.
Ok That is clear. There is not enough at stake for this kind of action. Should I tell the sender's to stop sending the checks?
If the value is small (less than $50,000), you may be able to use a small estate affidavit. That would be very quick and inexpensive. Here is link for more information on that form:
Great! I'll give that a try
If that is not an option, then you can of course let them know that your mother didn't have enough assets to complete probate and ask if you can have the checks made payable to you if you agree to indemnify them in the event some other heir claims a right to the property and sues the company paying the royalties.
Let the union writing the checks know?
Yes, if the affidavit procedure doesn't work. They'll need to know about the affidavit too if it does work.
So they can make back and future checks payable to you.
Great. Glad I could help. If you do not need additional information, I would be grateful if you could leave me a positive rating for my time assisting you. I cannot receive credit for my work without your positive rating and that is the sole means of compensation for JustAnswer experts.
Absolutely. You were clear and very helpful. I know what I can do next. Have a great day!

12/14/04 A little late, but it had to be done...
RoveCo international is proud to announce two fine additions to our fall fashion lineup. From POTUS-gear, makers of fine casual attire, come authentic replicas of recent jackets worn by Our Leader. No more "chilly receptions" in one of these "Like Ike" jackets of either fine wool or synthetic! Whether for that special "Man of the House" or the multibillion-dollar corporate chief executive, these jackets ooze "command presence"!
While personalized embroidery is available, we cannot reproduce "Commander in Chief" or include the Presidential Seal patch, as this would be disrespectful to both the man and the office. We will be happy to personalize them with a name, a corporate title, or logo as you see fit. Each comes with the mandatory and traditional American flag patch on the sleeve.
The "Like Ike" jacket comes in two different styles as above. On the left is the lightweight wool polyester blend model for only $395. To the right is the waterproof version, cotton lined, and made of Rip-Stop Poplin for only $495. Both are manufactured internationally with only the finest materials that the world has to offer America. Both also include the custom padded privacy pouch between the shoulder blades for an MP3 player, communication device, or insulin pump. No one will be the wiser, or your money back, guaranteed!
Wearing one of these fine jackets instantly aligns one with two of America's great Republican leaders! Whether in the European Theater or in the Oval Office, Ike was the definition of strong leadership. In leaving office, he wisely cautioned America against the growing threat of the military-industrial complex, and now you, too, can be a proud participant as President Bush fulfills this dream!
If you order now, you will be eligible for a 20% off discount towards a commemorative pair of matched Colt 45 semi automatic pistols with matching holsters. What a fine addition to these elegant jackets! The pistol butts are both inlaid with only the finest Texas Longhorn, and these in turn are engraved with the Texas Air National Guard emblem. The holsters are handcrafted from only the finest leather, custom dyed to match the jackets. You can command attention on any occasion, because everyone knows that nothing has the stopping power of a 45!
Order now, our toll-free operators are standing by in Bangladesh. Visa, MasterCard, and the new Political Capital Card are all accepted.
RoveCo international is a proud supporter of the new Political Capital Card from Helluvaburden. As such, cardholders will receive an additional 10% off by mentioning this ad. Just say, "I want to be like Ike!"
Political Capital Card, the card that cares... for you! So you don't have to!

What's it like: To get treated with acupuncture
Why use acupuncture?
People see an acupuncturist to relieve a variety of ailments, including migraines, tennis elbow, dental pain or chronic pain, such as pain related to the sciatic nerve. Acupuncture can help stimulate nerves and muscles, which can help increase blood flow and your body's production of chemicals to relieve pain, practitioners say.
Acupuncture can serve as complementary care to other modern medicine. For example, some integrated cancer treatment centers have acupuncture available for patients undergoing chemotherapy to help with nausea and vomiting.
Acupuncture has been practiced for thousands of years in some Asian countries and is one of the key components of traditional Chinese medicine. There some debate around the value of acupuncture and whether it's more than placebo.
Some insurance companies cover acupuncture. It's best to talk with the acupuncture practitioner about cost and what your budget allows.
What happens during treatment?
An acupuncture practitioner will apply needles and other treatments, including heat and pressure, to places in the skin, referred to as acupuncture points. The acupuncturist will place between five and 20 fairly thin needles into your body and leave them in for a few minutes.
The needles will go anywhere from a few millimeters to a few inches deep. The number and location of needles placed is based on you and your specific condition, or conditions.
Does it hurt?
You might feel a slight prick from the needle, but it likely won't hurt. Some patients feel a deep sensation once the needles puncture the skin. The needles used are generally 32-gauge to 40-gauge, which are similar in size to a strand of hair.
What are the risk factors?
It's important to find a certified acupuncture practitioner. Oklahoma does not license acupuncturists, but the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine offers a certification. You can check the commission website to find a certified acupuncturist in your area.
During acupuncture, you might bleed at the spot where the needle is inserted. You also might experience dizziness. There is a rare risk that the needle will go too deep and harm you. This is a risk factor in pediatric patients as well. For example, a needle in the chest can go too deep and puncture a lung. This rarely happens but is a risk.
Also, it's important to go an acupuncture practitioner with good sterile practices. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires that the needles be sterile, nontoxic and labeled for single use. If a needle is reused, it can expose you to disease and infection.
And it's recommend that you not see an acupuncture practitioner if you're pregnant. There's concern that it could cause you to go into early delivery.
What's the recovery time?
Some people begin to feel the benefits of acupuncture after a day or after a second treatment. Others feel the treatment's effects immediately. It will depend on what type of condition you suffer from and how extensive your treatment is.
If you don't find relief after a few sessions, acupuncture might not be right for you.
What's the follow-up?
The number of sessions depends largely on what you're being treated for. You likely will go once a week, ranging anywhere from two treatments to 12 treatments. For some severe conditions, your acupuncturist might recommend you come once a week for a year.

A word about Paul Waldman of Media Matters for America making a big deal about the Cyber Alert item "exploiting death" by noting in passing our archive of Peter Jennings material. Not linking to it, mind you, but mentioning it. Anyone who reads the item will note it's pretty soft in tone, but apparently MMFA thinks it's unbelievably rude to "exploit" a death for political gain? But usually after someone prominent dies, their political legacy comes up for debate. They apparently missed the pile of anti-Reagan myths the media began spreading last year. Oh, and in case you're wondering, after Reagan died, it was Media Matters that began worrying that right after Reagan's death, "misinformation" surfaced that Reagan and George W. Bush had similarities. Is that exploiting death for political gain?BTW, Waldman was last seen on the Romenesko Letters page making the absurd claim that Media Matters has "no commentary" on its Web site and is "free of advocacy." He somehow expects people won't notice their "Hands Off Public Broadcasting" campaign page. How on Earth is that free of advocacy? Is it not commentary to have articles that charge "The Bush administration wants to force public broadcasting to toe the Republican line"? These people are not serious.
Peter RIP vs. Reagan RIP

HIGH POINT, N.C. -- An 18-year-old man found dead in a High Point lake in March was shot in the back of the neck before he was dumped in the water.
Fisherman found Dorien Jackson's body in Lake Townsend nearly two months after he was last seen leaving his Greensboro home on his bicycle after getting a message from a friend.
Jackson's body was so decomposed from being in the water that he had to be identified through fingerprints.
