SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. ( TheStreet) -- Few investors expect Onyx Pharmaceuticals' ( ONXX) carfilzomib -- a proteasome inhibitor, like Takeda's Velcade -- to receive FDA approval in July for the treatment of late-stage multiple myeloma. After all, Onyx management disclosed late last year that FDA had concerns about whether the company's single-arm Phase IIb trial, upon which the carfilzomib approval filing was based, would be adequate for approval. Onyx asked FDA for a priority (six month) review, which the agency typically gives for drugs designed to satisfy urgent unmet medical needs. FDA instead assigned carfilzomib a standard ten-month regulatory clock.
Investors also question Onyx's decision to seek accelerated, or Subpart H, approval, which would be based on response rate (a surrogate endpoint) instead of a more robust survival benefit endpoint. Carfilzomib is also likely to undergo review by the FDA's challenging Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee, or ODAC. Does Onyx sound like a mess? Not to me. I view Onyx as a buy. Onyx's $2.4 billion market capitalization is low given that Nexavar -- marketed for kidney and liver cancer -- reached $1 billion in annual sales last year, enough to support the stock's current enterprise value. On top of the base business, Onyx also has an interesting R&D pipeline, including Nexavar in thyroid, breast, and late-stage lung cancer, novel molecules like carfilzomib, and roughly $500 million in net cash. Let's take a look at carfilzomib, the multiple myeloma drug that has lost the confidence of many investors. Onyx acquired carfilzomib when it purchased the privately held drug developer Proteolix in 2009. I have little doubt that carfilzomib is an effective multiple myeloma agent and will eventually be approved. The question is when. Most investors expect a delay, which mitigates the downside in Onyx's stock price should those fears be actualized. The FDA approval decision date is July 27th. An FDA approval on or before that date would be a major positive surprise. The 257-patient, single-arm Phase IIb trial of carfilzomib -- Study 003-A1 -- that supports Onyx's New Drug Application showed a 24% overall response rate in late-stage multiple myeloma. Management believes this compares favorably to the 11% response rate that would be expected had patients been treated with best supportive care.
Remember, Study 003-A1 treated all patients with carfilzomib so Onyx doesn't have actual comparative data. Still, these were heavily pre-treated individuals with advanced multiple myeloma. Patients in the trial received a median of five prior lines of therapy, had progressed on Takeda's Velcade and Celgene's ( CELG) Revlimid, and were refractory (unresponsive) to their last form of treatment. FDA has expressed a preference for randomized clinical trials even when reviewing cancer drugs aimed at late-stage patients. I'm cautiously optimistic about carfilzomib, however, because of similarities in the results seen in Study 003-A1 and those from the single-arm Phase II trial that supported accelerated approval of Velcade in 2003. In that trial dubbed "Summit," the response rate to Velcade therapy was 28% -- similar to the 24% response rate in the carfilzomib study. The duration of Velcade response was longer than what was recorded in the carfilzomib study, however multiple myeloma patients in both studies reported a median survival of roughly 16 months. That's good for carfilzomib since many of the patients in the study were no longer responsive to Velcade. The FDA's approval of Velcade based on a single-arm study in refractory multiple myeloma patients sets a precedent that could allow the agency to likewise approve carfilzomib. An on-time approval may not be likely but then investor expectations for Onyx are low enough that downside risk is minimal.

Cold weather fishing: During the winter most local game fish are looking for warm water. We have several areas along the coast that provide such water, such as rivers, deep-water canals and power plants. Most of the rivers have small freshwater springs in them that pump 72-degree water year-round. Sometimes you can locate these springs using a bottom machine with a water temperature gauge. These areas will most likely be the most productive for fishing in the river. Some of the game fish to look for are snook, redfish, trout and juvenile tarpon. You may also locate ladyfish, jacks and sheephead.
Best baits for rivers: You can catch these fish on artificial and live baits. Some popular live baits are jumbo live shrimp, creek chubs and live freshwater shiners. Some of my favorite artificial lures for the river are crankbaits, topwater plugs, and plastic jigs.
Tip: When fishing in these rivers bring both saltwater and freshwater fishing licenses, because you might catch some largemouth bass also. I sometimes go several miles upriver, where it is mostly freshwater. Several times in the past, I have caught a snook on one cast and a largemouth bass on the next.
Happy holidays and tight lines.

In his heart, Rick Santorum knows that Dutch people are forcibly euthanized
- By Joshua Keating
Joshua Keating was an associate editor at Foreign Policy
A few weeks ago, a video circulated online of Rick Santorum claiming that 1 in 20 deaths in the Netherlands are caused by involuntary euthanasia. According to Santorum, elderly Dutch wear bracelets that say "do not euthanize me" and "don't go to the hospital, they go to another country, because they're afraid because of budget purposes that they will not come out of that hospital if they go into it with sickness."
The remark was met with some bafflement in the Netherlands, and a Dutch television reporter recently cornered a Santorum spokesperson to ask about it:
"It's a matter of what's in his heart. He's a strong pro-life person," press secretary Alice Stewart replies.
After all, like the origin of the universe or the existence of a supreme being, Dutch medical statistics are ultimately unknowable — just another of the unresolvable mysteries that have confronted us since the dawn of mankind. Who are we? Why are we here? What are the laws in the Netherlands concerning doctor-assisted suicide? We all have our own beliefs.
Santorum knows in his heart that elderly Dutch people are routinely euthanized against their will by doctors. He believes this to be true, no matter what the elite media tries to tell him.
It's the same way I know that one in four Laotians are born with an extra finger and that the most common name in Chad is Chad. It's just what I believe.

Charlie Sheen's "Anger Management" Is a Family Affair
ABC Digital
Updated at
(NEW YORK) — Charlie Sheen is focused on family following his well-documented meltdown last year.
The proof is in Sheen's new comedy, Anger Management, which premieres on FX this Thursday night. His ex-wife, Denise Richards, and his father, Martin Sheen, are both scheduled to make guest appearances on the show.
Sheen tells ABC News Radio that his father plays his on-screen dad.
He continues, "He's fallen on some hard times and he has to come and he's trying to work an angle on me but it doesn't really work."
Sheen notes that his brother, sister and nephew work on the show behind the scenes.
Sheen says he's working with Richards away from the camera, too, as parents of two daughters.
He says, "Everything with them is great. The girls feel like they have two parents back in their life again, which is really important, you know?"
Aside from Anger Management, Sheen has been named a "social media ambassador" for WWE's 1,000th episode of its flagship series, Monday Night Raw, airing live on USA on July 23. He'll tweet commentary throughout the show.

'Friendly Chet' Enstrom lived up to his nickname
"Friendly Chet" Enstrom didn't get that nickname from the Colorado State Capitol press corps by accident.
A big, amiable, easy-going man, Grand Junction Republican state Sen. Chester Enstrom always seemed relaxed and unruffled, even under the most stringent circumstances. Such crises occurred often in the Colorado Legislature.
Early in his senatorial career from 1966 to 1974, Chet became famous for bringing Enstrom's toffee over for distribution to the legislators at least once each session. But that wasn't the only reason he lived up to his nickname. He just liked people, and he showed it.
As a first-term senator, when he was still a member of the governing board of Colorado State University, Chet and his wife, Vernie, had been invited to the CSU president's home for dinner followed by a basketball game viewed from the presidential box. He impulsively invited the late Marietta Benge, a Senate page from Grand Junction, and me, a freshman reporter in the Legislature, to go along. He explained that the president had told him he could bring a couple of friends, and he had chosen us.
That's why, when he walked out of the Republican Senate caucus a few years later, slammed the door behind him, and angrily stomped down the hallway, it seemed so out of character. This was before the days of the Open Records Law, and caucuses by both political parties were off-limits to reporters. We routinely gathered in the hall outside when a caucus was in session, hoping to learn something we didn't know.
"Go after him, and I'll grab the caucus chairman (as I recall, it was Sen. George Jackson of Colorado Springs). We'll find out what happened," advised respected Associated Press reporter Gordon Gauss. Gauss had been on the Capitol beat for more than 20 years and knew all the ins and outs of what was happening.
I raced down the hall after Chet, caught up with him, and learned that some of the GOP senators were balking at state funding for Mesa College, then a two-year institution. Since the Republicans controlled the House and Senate that year, their decisions on appropriations were the ones that counted.
Whether Chet was actually angry or whether the performance was a bit of strategy, I never did learn. After all, this was the man who took a candy business started in his basement and developed it into a product with a worldwide reputation. So he knew how to achieve a goal.
And that afternoon, he did achieve what he set out to do on the budget. When the Republican senators met again in caucus the next day, the funding was restored.
Chet's helpful side came to the fore several years later, in spring 1974, shortly after a devastating fire had destroyed The Daily Sentinel's presses. I had been called back to Grand Junction from Denver a few weeks earlier because we were short-staffed, but I was still trying to cover the Legislature by phone. It was near the end of the session, and the long bill — the annual appropriations bill, through which the Legislature funds various projects and institutions — was about to be released. Although I can't remember what appropriations were intended for western Colorado, I do know that there were several that were of prime interest to residents of the area.
The Sentinel's problem after the fire was that we had to write stories by midnight the night before, send them by truck to Glenwood Springs for a 3 a.m. press run, truck the newspapers back to Grand Junction, and distribute them early the next afternoon. This arrangement went on for six weeks, and trying to keep the news fresh was a major problem.
But I had a solution, and I needed Chet's help. He was a member then of the Legislature's Joint Budget Committee, which puts together the Long Bill of state appropriations, so I called him. My request was simple (to me, anyway): The bill was to be completed late one day and presented to the Legislature the next day, with a late-morning deadline for press release.
I argued that, with our delivery timeline, the Sentinel couldn't possibly beat the Denver newspapers and wire services if I got the information the night before, after the Joint Budget Committee had OKed the bill but before it was distributed to the press the next morning. I didn't add that I knew the articles on the wire services and in Denver newspapers would be involved with statewide funding when they first got the bill and wouldn't get to local funding until a day later, if at all.
Chet said he would see what he could do, and I waited beyond my usual departure time from the office, hoping that he would call. It was 6:30 or 7 p.m. that evening when Chet called, apologized for being so late, but said the final JBC meeting had gone longer than expected. He had a list of everything he thought I might want, read it to me, and accepted my thanks with typical "Friendly Chet" aplomb.
We were happy the next day that our story on Western Slope appropriations beat every other news outlet in the state.
Chet's friendly approach to life didn't cease when he resigned from the Senate and went back to private life. He had dabbled in painting in the past and now began to spend a lot more time with it. Friends were often surprised when Chet showed up to present them with an oil painting he had just finished.
I was one of the recipients, and I still have on my bedroom wall the painting of Grand Mesa at sunset that Chet presented to me as a retirement gift 25 years ago.
Mary Louise Giblin Henderson worked for The Daily Sentinel for more than 40 years, and was the newspaper's political reporter for many of those years. She is retired and lives in California.

Permission Granted to Take It to the Bridge
Standing uselessly in the Gap the other day as my girlfriend tried on clothes, my mind wandered to the wretched dance music being relentlessly pumped into the hip boutique. Though I can't dance a single step, I bounce around in my chair in near epilepsy every time I hear a booty-zapping groove. As such, the monotonous rhythms of most popular dance music since the disco infection does little to me but make me long for the sweet release of death. The very idea of dance music as we've come to know it through the African-American tradition has always been based around the notion of syncopation. It's the very thing that gets the most dexterous butts out of their seats, but it's also what befuddled the white folks who wanted to get down at Studio 54 or have some suitable background music while paying inflated prices for threads designed to make them look like they inhabit the fashionable socio-economic stratum somewhere between where they actually are and the position occupied by the sweatshop laborers that made the clothes. But I digress
James Brown knew a thing or two about syncopation and had righteous scorn for disco and, one surmises, its modern equivalent. "In funk, you dig into a groove, you don't stay on the surface," preached Soul Brother Number One. "Disco stayed on the surface. See, I taught 'em everything they know but not everything I know." For overwhelming evidence of this vast disparity between Brown's knowledge and that of his bastard children, look no further than In the Jungle Groove, a collection of odds and ends from the tumultuous years between 1969 and 1971. Remastered and expanded by one long cut, it proves as vital a reminder in 2003 as it did in 1986 that the dross that superceded funk as pop's premier dance music can in no way compete with the original. Still, it's understandable that Brown doesn't get the sheer volume of people moving that, say, Kylie Minogue can, just as it's understandable that Stravinsky has only a fraction the devotees of John Williams. As fierce and visceral as the music on In the Jungle Groove is, it's hard, tight funk that works itself into a coil more complex and tense than fans of funk-lite purveyors like Dave Matthews can safely ingest. Moreover, the album features none of the pop instincts that Brown showed with singles like "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" or "I Got You (I Feel Good)." Instead, it's made up of uncompromising funk jams that pay about as much attention to harmony and melody as the Bush administration does to credible intelligence. Lyrics are an afterthought as well, here trimmed back even from their Spartan norm, but even if Brown will never be in demand as a librettist, he can still make a sharper criticism of Richard Nixon with grunts and deft rhythmic counterpoint than poets of the century like Bob Dylan.

In the Jungle Groove
US: 17 Jun 2003
UK: 30 Jun 2003
The music on Jungle Groove is great, of course, but a question remains: why re-release this album now? When it originally came out in 1986, Brown was soaring from both the surprise success of "Living in America" and his omnipresence via sampling in the exploding field of hip-hop. The album's "Bonus Beat Reprise" of "Funky Drummer" begged to be rapped over, reducing the complexity of the original (also included) to an easily lifted nugget. But today, drum machines are sophisticated enough to make borrowing Brown's beats less of a necessity for the funky people in hip-hop, and the real lucre lies in the mmm-sss-mmm-sss stuff blaring from every nook and cranny of your local mall. So what's the point, you ask? At the risk of being obvious, In the Jungle Groove deserves another shot because the music earns it. Its origins as a quickie cash-in don't detract from the undeniable power of the grooves unleashed within, nor are the proceedings hurt by the revolving-door lineup of the period. Maceo Parker, Bootsy Collins, and Clyde Stubblefield all come and go, but the funk remains undiluted. Brown's diminished vocal presence and virtually non-existent instrumental input could lead listeners to forget about his importance in assembling the sound he's known for, and certainly, all the sidemen he worked with at the time were major talent, but they were still sidemen, forged into a mold that was Brown's stunning creation. In the Jungle Groove isn't the best place to start investigating that creation, but anyone interested in Brown specifically or funk in general—and every responsible citizen should be both—shouldn't stop digging before they get here.

A series of cannibalism cases were reported to be occurring in the forest of Raccoon City, a mid-western US town. Due to the alarming concern, the police department, "R.P.D"(Acronym for "Raccoon Police Department") ordered its own special force unit, the "STARS"(Acronym for "Special Tactics And Rescue Service") to survey the area and to investigate the matter. The Bravo team was send in first, but they lost contact with the Alpha team. Later on, the Alpha team was send in for assistance. Almost the entire STARS units were wiped out. The survivors that made it back to the R.P.D were Bravo team medic "Rebecca Chamber", Alpha team members "Chris Redfield", "Jill Valentine", "Barry Burton" and "Brad Vickers". Alpha team leader, Albert Wesker, went missing. The survivors reported that they encountered hideous monsters, apparently created by Umbrella Company, who had created a virus which can contaminate living humans and turn them into 'zombies' and the creation of other mutants. However, the police chief, Brian Iron, refuses to recognise their 'ridiculous' statement. He disbanded the STARS, and ordered the case close. That doesn't stop the trouble. Reports of missing people and cannibalism resurfaces in the town. The public began to put pressure on the local police chief to do something about it. All this while, the virus which the former STARS member encountered, the "T-virus", had slowly leaked into the town. The Raccoon City citizens are slowly turning into zombies one by one. September 1998. The whole town became chaotic, as the zombies began to invade the city. Now, you play as one of the survivors who haven't been infected yet. Good luck escaping this town.

To know more about it, refer to the previous section. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------ | JUNK PARTS | ------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ By combining the BROKEN SHOTGUN found in scenario 2 with the JUNK PARTS, David can repair the weapon to make it work again.

Any weapon which the Hunter smashed can be repair by David. Melee weapons like BENT IRON PIPE and BROKEN CRUTCH cannot be repaired. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------- | DUCT TAPE | ----------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Every time David combines 2 items to form a weapon, a duct tape will be used up.

Small Engine Troubleshooting Problems? Ask a Mechanic Now.
I have a chain saw that keeps coming off after 4 to 5 cuts. Why? thanks
Chains only come off for a few reasons.
1. The chain is too loose. Make sure that when you are tightening the chain that you hold up on the bar the entire time you are tightening the chain and are tightening the bar nuts. If you do not, the chain will come loose very quickly.
2. It is the wrong chain, Many times when a person goes and buys a chain....especially if they go to a discount store, they buy a new chain of the same length as what they need but it is the wrong pitch. The drive links are not at the right spacing and do not mesh with the sprocket of the the bar and the saw.
3. The chain has come off before and damaged the drive links. Once a chain has come off of a bar, it usually damages the drive links and it will NEVER stay on the bar again. Look at the drive links of the chain and see if ther is ANY damage to them. If there is, replace the chain.
4. The sprockets may be worn. Check the sprockets at the end of the bar and also on the saw itself. Too much wear on either of these will cause this problem. The sprocket on the shaw should have NO wear grooves in it. Most people do not know what a new sprocket looks like. There are NO grooves in them at all. The sprocket at the end of the bar should turn freely and the chain should fit perfectly in the sprocket.
5. The chainsaw may not be oiling properly or the wrong oil is being used. IF the saw is not oiling , It creates too much heat and friction and can cause the chain to start to wear prematurely.
6. The chain may be worn out. Most customers do not know that the chains wear out more at the rivets than they do on the cutters. IF the chain has worn to the point that customers think the chain has stretched, the spacing of the drive links will have increased and will not fit properly into the sprockets. With the chain off, grab a hold of the chain about 4 inches apart and see if it will move back and forth a little bit. If it does, it is too worn to use.
The chain saw that you should buy is an ECHO BRAND CS-530 20" bar.
This will sell for about $399.00. Make sure that you get it at a reputable dealership that will put it together, start it and adjust it and show you how to use it.
Make sure that you use ONLY Echo brand oil and you MUST use premium Gasoline.
Not only is this the Best saw you can get, but it will have an extremely high resale value if you decide to sell it after you are finished with your projects.
I have been both an Echo and Stihl dealer for more than 17 years. The main reason that I have now stopped selling Stihl is that they now have started to sell caws and trimmers that are not of the good quality that they used to sell. They now have TWO different qualities of units....the PROFESSIONAL saws and now the HOMEOWNER models. You do not ever want to buy the less expensive saws that they have. There professional saws are still good, but they are much more expensive than you are going to need and they are NOT better than the ECHO saws that you can get for less money.
Stay away from ANY brand that is the Discount store variety. Brands like Poulan, Homelite, McCulloch, Craftsman or just about any other brand that you can get there.
Husqvarna is a better brand than the discount store saws, but you have to be very careful because they have THREE different Qualities of saws. ONLY the PROFESSIONAL models are worth buying. AND they are just as expensive as the Stihl saws. The biggest problem is that a customer never knows which quality you are getting. In addition parts availability is much harder to get because there are not nearly as many parts dealers as there are other brands.

Announcing the Carnival of Pen, Pencil and Paper
It's time for something new! Introducing the Carnival of Pen, Pencil and Paper, which will kick off here at Notebook Stories on Tuesday, August 4th. Future editions will be hosted by The Pen Addict on September 8th , Office Supply Geek on October 6th, and other blogs yet to be determined.
If you are a blogger and want to submit a post for the inaugural edition, the deadline is Sunday, August 2nd at 5pm Eastern time. Read below for all the details.
What is the Carnival of Pen, Pencil and Paper? Will there be cotton candy and rides?
The Carnival is a monthly collection of the best blog posts about notebooks, journals, pens, pencils, paper products and other related topics, appearing at a different blog the first Tuesday of every month. Any unhealthy foods and unnatural G-force levels will be purely virtual.
How can I get one of my posts into the Carnival? How are the posts selected?
Any blogger can submit a post by filling out a simple form at this link. The carnival host will then be responsible for selecting submissions to be included at his or her discretion. One post per submitting blog per carnival. Spam, off-topic posts and inappropriate material will be rejected.
What is the best kind of post to submit?
Please submit a recent post (within the past week or two). Posts should be your own original content. The most interesting posts reflect the point of view of the writer, such as a review of a pen, or an explanation of your paper-based organization system, or examples of artwork from your sketchbook with some commentary. Photos of gorgeous notebooks and pens are always a big plus!
Are there any other requirements for bloggers submitting posts?
Bloggers whose posts are selected should write a post linking back to that edition of the carnival after it is published, as well as the carnival home page. Tweets and Facebook updates are also appreciated. Toot your own horn a bit!
How can I host a future edition of the carnival?
Contact the organizer to apply. Hosts are expected to weed out spam and post the carnival by 9am the first Tuesday of the month in order to ensure maximum exposure for all participants. It's also preferred that the host select a few "editor's choice" posts to highlight. The host should help publicize the carnival by posting, tweeting, etc. The organizer reserves the right to limit hosting to established, active, on-topic blogs.
What is the point of all this? Why should I want to participate?
If you like reading about notebooks, pens, etc., the carnival is a great way to discover new bloggers and make sure you haven't missed some of the best recent posts from blogs you may already know.
If you are a blogger who writes about notebooks and pens, either as a main topic or just occasionally in relation to other topics such as writing, organization, art, creativity, etc, then the carnival is a chance to showcase your work, find new readers, and gain more incoming links to your blog.
We hope all notebook, pen and pencil fans will find this a fun way to learn more about and interact with a large and growing community of like-minded souls! Please pass the word!
7 Responses to "Announcing the Carnival of Pen, Pencil and Paper"
This sounds like a GREAT idea. I am always looking for new bloggers that have the same loves (read addictions) as I do, and pens, pencils and notebooks are definitely in that category! Looking forward to the first Carnival next week! I may even try to get a submission in before the deadline.
I love notebooks. There, I said it.
I've never admitted, online, that I recall, how much I love notebooks. If I have admitted it, I've forgotten. But I have never, ever forgotten my love for notebooks.
I will plan to submit something for the Carnival, and I will definitely check out what others write.
Super cool.
What a great way to bring the members of the pen, pencil and paper loving community together! I especially love that the carnival will travel. For my part, I've already submitted a post.
See you all there!
[…] Some carnivals have roller coasters, fried dough, and oversized stuffed animals as prizes. This carnival offers just as much fun and variety, if you love handmade Japanese paper, fountain pens, Filofaxes, and 15-year old spiral notebooks. Every month, a different blog will host this traveling collection of the best posts about pens, pencils, notebooks, and other related topics. (More information here and here.) […]
[…] over at Notebookstories came up with the great idea of getting a blog carnival started for anyone who has a blog or individual post dedicated to anything pen, paper, or pencil. […]

John Gosden has expressed his delight with Kingman as the colt attempts to step up on his Newmarket second in the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh.
The Khalid Abdullah-owned three-year-old has had a huge reputation since bolting up on his racecourse debut last June and enhanced that when looking potentially top class in the Greenham Stakes on his return to action this year.
He dismissed Richard Hannon's Night Of Thunder with ease that afternoon yet had the tables turned on him in the 2000 Guineas.
Classic redemption has been Kingman's aim since, and with the Newmarket winner waiting for Ascot, he has been backed into odds-on favouritism.
"He's in good form, he went nicely on Saturday and I'm happy with him now," said Gosden.
"We'd like to run on good ground - that's what everyone is looking for so you can show a turn of foot. We don't want it fast for him, but it might go the other way.
"He's in good order, he came out of his race well and I couldn't be happier."
Abdullah's racing manager Teddy Grimthorpe felt the best horse probably won at Newmarket but there will be no excuses in Ireland.
"We were very positive about him before and he's really done everything we'd have hoped," he said.
"We've got no qualms about the result (at Newmarket). If Kieren's (Fallon) horse (Night Of Thunder) had stayed straight then he'd probably win by further, so you can't complain about that. He was on our side although he diverted to the middle.
"All has been fine with Kingman in the lead up to the race and they are calling the going yielding which should be fine."
As well as saddling the winner that day, Hannon also provided the fourth in Shifting Power, who was supplemented on Monday.
Richard Hughes will be in the saddle this time having been on Toormore at Newmarket.
"He should run a good race, I think the ground should be good come the weekend. I've been speaking to my dad (Dessie) who said it hasn't been too bad and keeps improving," said Hughes.
"There's no point kidding ourselves, Kingman is the one to beat and I have to make up two lengths, but it's a horse race and anything can happen."
Aidan O'Brien is looking for his 10th win in the race and War Command is aiming to follow in the recent footsteps of Power and Roderic O'Connor who disappointed in the English Guineas before bouncing back to win in Ireland.
O'Brien has stopped short of putting blinkers on War Command, but has opted for cheekpieces.
He said: "Before the Guineas he wasn't working as impressively as Australia and the way they finished is the way they worked at home.
"He's a lazy worker and we had debated about putting blinkers on him at home last year, but then he won the Coventry and we didn't have to.
"Ryan (Moore) said at Newmarket 'he didn't wake up at all for me'.
"There is a chance (with headgear) he'll step up and he needs to."
Paul Deegan's Prince Of All is improving at a rate of knots and landed a Listed race at Dundalk in fine style last time out.
"As long as it's not too soft he'll run. He made all last time because we thought there'd be little pace and as he was coming back one furlong in trip we thought we'd make it less complicated," said Deegan.
"He's a very big horse, he's imposing and has a high cruising speed so we didn't want a tactical race. He did it well as he was out on his own a long time and could have got lonely.
"He's come on a bit since then and has improved for the run. He'll keep on improving and he's only had three runs.
"The Curragh should suit him more as it's a stiff track. He'll get 10 furlongs later in the year I think."
Dermot Weld's team have been in excellent form so far this term and he expects his representative Mustajeeb to be involved at the finish.
"He put up an excellent trial for the Guineas. Beating the older horses was good, he quickened nicely and he's a progressive horse," said Weld.
"Whether he's good enough to beat Kingman remains to be seen. He's good enough to compete - good enough to beat him remains doubtful. He's got a definite each-way chance."
Obliterator has only had two runs but has has shown stacks of ability for Ger Lyons. However, if the forecast is right he may not be run.
"Ger is very happy with the horse, but he won't run if the word soft is in the going description," said David Redvers, racing manager for owners Qatar Racing.
"It's very frustrating as he's in such good form, but there if there is a deluge of rain at the Curragh, as some are predicting, he won't be lining up.
"If the ground is not suitable, we'll probably aim towards the French Derby and then Royal Ascot."
John Murphy's Big Time was just half a length behind David Wachman's Sudirman in both the Railway and Phoenix Stakes last year and will be stepping up to a mile for the first time.
"This has been his aim since his last run, he's in very good shape and I couldn't be happier," said Murphy.
"He just had a tiny cough in late March and early April so we skipped the trials and have gone straight for it.
"I just hope it's not soft or heavy ground. If he stays, I'd be looking for him to run a big race and I'm really excited."

CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSE MKT: CVM) today announced that it has signed a co-development and profit sharing agreement with Ergomed Clinical Research Ltd. for CEL-SCI's investigational immunotherapy drug Multikine ("Leucocyte Interleukin Inj.") in HIV/HPV co-infected women with cervical dysplasia. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disease. HPV is a significant health problem in the HIV infected population as individuals are living longer as a result of greatly improved HIV medications. People living with HIV and others with compromised immunity are more at risk for HPV-related complications. Persistent HPV infection can also be a precursor to cervical cancer. Under the terms of this agreement, Ergomed will assume 50% (up to $3 million) of the clinical and regulatory costs for the development of Multikine as a potential treatment for HIV/HPV co-infected women with cervical dysplasia. The full co-development program for Multikine must be jointly agreed to prior to implementation. Ergomed already has a similar co-development agreement for up to $10 million with CEL-SCI for the ongoing head and neck cancer Phase III clinical trial. Ergomed will receive its return on investment based on an agreed single digit percentage of any net income received by CEL-SCI for Multikine from sales in this and the head and neck cancer indications. Miroslav Reljanovic, Chief Executive of Ergomed said, "We took over the largest part of CEL-SCI's Multikine Phase III head and neck cancer study in April of this year and are now in the process of rapidly expanding the study to meet its recruitment goals. In the process of working on this Phase III study we have gained a level of comfort with Multikine that leads us to broaden our co-development collaboration with CEL-SCI into this new indication." Geert Kersten, Chief Executive of CEL-SCI said, "As the Phase III trial in head and neck cancer is now gaining momentum under the new guidance of Ergomed and another CRO, we are able to expand our Multikine development program to cover other unmet medical needs. HPV infection in immune-compromised HIV infected patients is clearly one of those areas in need of new treatments."

text: I recently experienced two racquets (Yonex rds 003 and yonex rqs 11) which TW specs show to have the same stiffness value: 65. However, as a player of over 25 years, nobody can convince me that this is true... The difference is very obvious, rqs 11 is a very flexible, comfortable stick and rds is 003 is a stiff one that I could not tolerate after a few trials. Maybe the flexibility that I experience with rqs 11 may belong to the neck part while rds 003 is stiff at that point.. Does anyone know how stiffness values are measured and what may cause my dilemma???

Arts workshops offered for teachers
The Arts Partnership of Greater Hancock County, in conjunction with the Findlay City and Hancock County schools and the University of Findlay, will present two arts integration workshops in February and March.
The professional development workshops are free to area educators and pre-service educators and provide a hands-on approach to integrating the arts into the curriculum.
Tami Wallace from Millstream Career Center will present "Incorporating the Digital Arts into Your Teaching" from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Feb. 13 at the Millstream Career Center.
The workshop will present strategies to incorporate digital arts into the classroom that are designed to increase student engagement and creativity and personalize student learning. Educators will receive tips for planning and evaluating projects and many mobile tools for digital storytelling and photo and video editing.
The resources and projects shared will be scalable for any kindergarten through 12th grade setting and will be applicable to all content areas.
Wallace has been an educational technology specialist for over 20 years. She is the career tech coordinator and adult education supervisor at Millstream Career Center and teaches educational technology classes at Owens Community College.
Workshop participants can earn contact hours. Space is limited so pre-registration is encouraged by Feb. 11 by contacting Peggy Grandbois, executive director of the Arts Partnership, at 419-422-3412, ext. 3, or at email@example.com.
The final workshop for the 2013-14 school year is "Helping Students Develop and Tell Their Stories," presented from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. March 4 at the Mazza Museum by Judy Thibault Klevins.
Educators will learn ways to help students understand story structure by developing personal narratives and use storytelling techniques to tell stories more vividly. Participants will also explore a process for helping students choose appropriate topics, visualize the story and use simple sketching and writing to organize and capture stories.

Man jailed for using counterfeit cash to buy breakfast tacos
Fri, 21 Mar 2014 17:23:47 GMT —
Authorities are investigating how a man got a hold of $60 dollars in counterfeit cash.
Edinburg police arrested 24-year-old Abraham Nava on two counts of forgery on Thursday.
Investigators told Action 4 News that Nava used a fake $20 dollar bill at a Denny's restaurant off Monte Cristo Road.
Police said Nava then used another fake $20 dollar bill buy a breakfast taco at a Stripes off Schunior Road.
The store clerk learned that the bill was fake and called police.
Officers arrested Nava on the 1400 block of University Drive where he allegedly had another fake $20 dollar bill.
Nava appeared before an Edinburg Muncipal Court judge on Friday afternoon where he was issued $60,000 in bonds.
Police said investigators are interviewing Nava to find out the source fo the counterfeit bils.

From Futenma to Fukushima, Japan's Costly Dithering — Maher
The disputed U.S. military base at Futenma in Okinawa has been off the radar for the past few months, as Japan sought to cope with what Prime Minister Naoto Kan called the country's "worst crisis since World War II" — the March 11 disasters and their aftermath.
But that's likely to change — soon. With the U.S. grinding through a major budget crisis this summer, unless Tokyo and Okinawa hammer out details of a thorny relocation plan that more or less triggered the downfall of Mr. Kan's predecessor, Yukio Hatoyama, within a matter of weeks, the funds to cover the cost of relocating Futenma may be taken off the table, and the base will likely stay where it is, regardless of local outcry. At least, that's the view of former U.S. diplomat Kevin Maher, visiting Tokyo to promote a new book — in Japanese only so far — called "The Japan That Can't Decide." And with Mr. Kan's own resignation likely only weeks away, it would take a skilled, and bold, incoming prime minister to resolve the issue rapidly.
