Maybe his awakening will increase his stamina so much he'll be able to fight for days/weeks or something.
And he'll be able to deliver things like a "King Kong gatling" I guess.
Others are saying he'll be able to create "shockwaves" like Lucci's rokugan
Well, they just have to drill holes in the ships' hulls. Or, just bomb them you knowWell, Big Mom's fleet is huge, so they might sink a bunch, but eventually they will get caught; seems like a risky move to do honestly, but it would be cool if the Sun Pirates sunk every ship; but it is not realistic in a sense. There also might be other fishmen that would be part of mom's fleet, so that might be another risk as well.
It's nice to have a different ending. It's not like I was rooting for a fight.I have to disagree with you on this. I actually like how he is making the cake and showing off his talent. Plus, I do feel like he has to defend the cake as well. Also, if there was no cake, Big Mom would still go on a rampage, and probably die. So, of course with what I said earlier, it would not be a good idea to have an entire fleet after the Strawhats. Big Mom's crew is like a giant army in my opinion.
But Oda made it clear the SHs were completely totally fucked, and in the end they're just gonna bake a cake and say bye. The idea isn't that bad, it's actually good--- but it should have been done wayyy sooner. Like, when he was captured, and not used as a deus-ex-machina tool
Honestly, I would have liked to see Bigmom asking Sanji to cook her something. But I guess it would have looked like Komatsu (in Toriko) escaping Midora's base...
Because in the end what happened ?
"Sanji: wow I must go see Bigmom, Zeff is threatened and all.
Luffy: come with me idiot
Sanji: no I can't escape, muh pirate trash
Luffy: just do it lmao haha
Sanji: okay"
Like ffs, why did the madmen even follow Capone into Bigmom's territory in the first place ??? In the end they've all blacked out on the floor and forgot Zeff's existence
I'm not suggesting her to die. I'm suggesting to delete the whole bs about her needing what-she-wants-as-food (this time it's the cake, the last time it was something else) as her Achilles heelWell, he still would want to catch Luffy, plus it would be risky for me to go into Big Mom's territory; unless he has an entire army like it was in the Marineford arc. Plus, again, by the Strawhats escaping, the Big Mom Pirates will still pursue them since from your suggestions if there was no cake then ---> Big Mom would die ----> Big Mom's crew will get revenge at the Strawhats, since they were the ones to destroy the cake in the first place.
Also, it's not risky for Fujitora to get into Bigmom's territory no.
And it can happen in many different ways. I've already mentioned a few of them
Also, concerning the theory about Chopper curing her illness (because for some people, the whole theory is about "Sanji baking the cake" + "Chopper curing Bigmom"). It's not really that bad, but it is in that that who the fuck is Chopper ffs ? Like, why didn't the crew think about curing their mom sooner? in the past decades.
Mommy has so many connections and all, but they'll be relying on Tony Tony Chopper to cure her ? Is he the only physician in the onepiece-verse?
It's not like Chopper was already the best doctor in the world. There must be famous doctors out there who could be kidnapped or blackmailed in order to cure their mama.
This is what they should have been looking for in the last decades. A solution in the long term! And not giving her the food she wants until she starts going crazy again, and again...
Bigmom isn't gonna let them go because she has an eating disorder, but because the cream will be so fucking delicious. Does Capone have an eating disorder too ?he does not have a eating disorder like Big Mom does.
It's not wrong in itself, it's wrong because it's a cheap (kinda deus-ex-machina) pullout from all this mess.Also, what is wrong in having Big Mom as an ally or be at peace after this arc?
Also because it's taking so much time maybe.
I mean, for me, it's as bad as "omg, Luffy is out of haki! let's take a break, and we'll come back to our current issues in a few chapters. lol"
I'm not asking Luffy to beat the shit out of her. They just have to escape, and once they'll enter the wano country, the bigmom pirates will stop at the frontier because they don't want to get into more trouble only because a brat smashed the cake or something like that.I feel like you are overthinking this whole cake thing. Not everything has to be solve with fighting; plus this is a very original and unique way for an arc to end, instead of the same old routine.
Or maybe they fuck up, and they try to attack Wano, and they get swamped like assholes without even getting there.

Question for you guys
you say each member has a design that makes them unique from the other members, does that mean because of Usopps nose there's a zero percent chance that we will get a tengu to join the crew? (remember Kinemon mistook him for one)
Member of Beelzebub is Freakin' Awesome Group

"For the love of God, don't ask me what I am going to gift to friends and family this Diwali. Because I don't know!" said my aunt.
"It is so confusing, same story every year. Should I give the tea set to the Mehtas? Oh, but I think I gave them a tea set last year too.
Maybe a dabba (box) of mithai for the Sharmas. But the same kind of mithai is there everywhere in the market. Mine will also be just another dabba. I want it to be different, something nice, something new, something fun and something that they will remember for a long time."
Familiar scene during festival season?
Struggling to think of that "nice, different, perfect" gift?
Want to break away from the mundane and cliched stuff ?
Here are some things you can try out this season and do let us know how it worked out :)
Diwali cupcakes, Diwali cookies anyone??
Cute eh? You can even send tarts and mini cupcakes with a festive theme.
Sick of all the mithai (sweets) going around? Gift someone the tea hamper to soothe those frazzled festive season nerves, to help them relax.
Know someone who loves to host taash (cards) parties?? Perrrfect gift for them - the funky playing cards which can be customized with a photograph of your choice.
Or a box of the You're The Bomb mint chocolates. Apt for gifting to your firecracker friends :)
Are you hosting a party at your place? Need some funky shot glasses? In addition to making people feel happy, they also make for great conversation starters :)
And for all the post festive season recovery, this Pamper me Spa Pail will be awesome! It is the perfect gift to spoil your friends and yourself ;)
None of these work for you? Still confused about what to give? No worries. We have some super fun gift certificates for you. Reach out to us.
Wishing you a fun filled, happy and warm festive season ahead. Happy shopping and gifting!

Earlier I posted about being nominated for a Liebster Award by Denise. Now I'm completing the 2nd part of the requirements.
3. Nominate 10 blogs with 300 followers or less.
4. Give your nominees 10 questions to answer.
I really like this part because it gives me a chance to give a shout out to some fantastic blogs I've discovered recently. I have found inspiration, clever ideas, funny stories, and witty writing amongst this list of bloggers. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
The 10 blogs that I have nominated in no particular order are:
Relief Teaching Ideas
Mel the Literacy Coach
Mrs Kilburn's Kiddos
Planning 2 Learn- A 4th Grade Teacher
Teaching Paws-Itively
A Stylish Teacher
(I apologise if some of these blogs have more than 300 followers! I looked at their pages, but it was hard to determine how many people subscribed to some of them!)
…and the 10 questions I'm asking them:
1) Why did you start your blog?
2) At what point did you decide to become a teacher?
3) What is one of your talents?
4) Did/Do you have a favourite teacher? What were they like?
5) What is your best memory of school? (Can be either past or present)
6) If the sky's the limit, what would you like to do next?
7) What is a piece of advice you would like to share?
8) If you have some spare time, what do you do?
9) How do you see yourself: planner or spontaneous?
10. By this time, next year, where do you hope to be? What do you want to have accomplished?
I look forward to reading the responses! Please leave a link in the comments so we can easily find them.
Thank you so much to Denise, from http://reliefteachingideas.wordpress.com/, for nominating me for a Liebster Award!!! A Liebster Award is a blogging award, given by fellow bloggers. It's a great way to learn more about each other, build community, and help spread the word about lesser known, and up & coming blogs.
I am overwhelmed with gratitude. I'm not sure if you could even classify me as a blogger at times as my page is a little blank when I am busy with University endeavours or volunteering! However, my blog is a great outlet to share ideas, resources and comments that I have come across in my educational journey to become a teacher.
I'm hoping that this year I'll be able to spend more time, to add a few more posts.
Back to the award! Reading through Denise's post, I saw that there are some guidelines to follow.
1. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog 2. Answer the 10 questions sent to you as part of the nomination. 3. Nominate 10 blogs with 300 followers or less. 4. Give your nominees 10 questions to answer. **5: You can't nominate the blogger that nominated you! 😉
I've covered number one, so straight onto number two…
THE QUESTIONS Denise ASKED ME:
1. What made you start blogging?
The reason I started the blog was a means of Professional Development, however since its creation I have found interesting tips and articles and it just grew from there.
2. Which do you prefer…. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or other?
Facebook, although I have found Twitter and Pinterest to have many benefits as a Preservice Teacher.
3. Did you have a favourite teacher? Tell me about them.
It's so hard to just choose one so I will do an overall statement! What sets my favourites apart from the rest is their caring, empathetic and outward nature.
4. If you could teach any year level, any subject, what would it be?
I know it is not strictly related to the curriculum, however I feel it would be wise to teach students more about morals and everyday life. If the Ethics program that is in DEC pipelines can be introduced I think this would be a great subject to deliver to any year level.
5. What's your best tip for a new teacher?
Believe in yourself and remember if you are having a bad day leave that at the gate when you go home and start the next as a new one!
6. How did you learn how to blog/set up your own page?
Before embarking on my journey to become a teacher, I dabbled in Information Technology and I was once taught by Australia's chief Web Design Worldskills Judge 🙂
7. How often do you post on your blog?
The occasional post here and there when something catches my attention or I find something new and innovative to post about. (Most of my blogging is very time dependent as I am a Preservice teacher)
8. What has been your most popular blog post you've ever published?
Hmm.. it is close between two posts however, granted that I looked ahead at the next question I will go with my post on world autism awareness for this one ;): https://katrinawirth.wordpress.com/2013/04/02/world-autism-awareness-month/
9. What is YOUR favourite post you've ever written? (Please provide links!)
I think my favourite would have to be: https://katrinawirth.wordpress.com/2013/02/14/societys-perceptions-of-teaching/, as that morning after reading Connell's (2007) article I thought to myself Educational Sociology is all around us and today's memes really do highlight these ingrained perceptions that some people still have of teachers.
10. By this time, next year, where do you hope to be? What do you want to have accomplished?
This time next year, I hope to be finishing off the last of my Undergraduate Degree and to continue to have a feeling of accomplishment that I am making a difference in the lives of those that I am helping.
So there you have it! A little bit about me! Later I'll post the 10 blogs that I've nominated & the questions I'd like them to answer.
Thanks again to Denise for the nomination!

First quality bass with classic sunburst finish.
The two basses that put Music Man on the map and made them serious competition for the legendary premier American electric string instrument brands were the StingRay and the Sabre. The Classic Sabre is a faithful reproduction of the original Sabre design, along with some improvements in manufacturing consistency and electronics manufacture and shielding. It is a magnificent professional quality electric bass guitar.
This particular one is a special issue with an all-rosewood neck (most are issued in maple). It likewise has a rosewood fretboard. Music Man is all about stout and hearty construction, and the Classic Sabre participates in that tradition. Notice the covered humbuckers, an immediately discernable departure from the original. It is equipped with a 5-way switch that lets you solo the bridge pickup, use the bridge with the bridge-side coil of the neck pickup only, use all coils of each pickup, solo just the coil of the neck pickup closest to the bridge, or solo the neck pickup. Lots of tones, especially when you consider the 2-way active EQ.
Great playability, comfortable balance, everything you expect from a first quality American-made bass.

text: Cane 0 Posted October 30, 2017 After having seen whatever little footage were available to us before the end of the kickstarter it felt pretty clear to me that the game lacks a lot of resources. It feels downright silly to only include a single herb and box of handgun bullets for a scenario with several players. Anything less than 1 handgun bullet reload for each player seems way too little. Yes ammo was limited in the RE games but not even close to what it looks like in this board game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites


text: Moon Struck by 'Extraordinary' Asteroid Blast Spanish astronomer spotted the dramatic strike last year By Neal Colgrass, Newser Staff Posted Feb 24, 2014 5:18 PM CST 47 comments Comments Moon Struck by 'Extraordinary' Asteroid Blast A video of the lunar-impact blast. (YouTube) (Newser) – A car-sized asteroid smashed into the moon last year and left the longest-ever afterglow for a lunar impact ever seen—one big enough to be spotted by the naked eye under good viewing conditions, a Spanish astronomer said Monday. Jose Maria Madiedo said he witnessed the blast while working two lunar-observing telescopes on September 11, AFP reports. "At that moment, I realized that I had seen a very rare and extraordinary event," he said. The 8-second afterglow was for a brief moment as bright as the Pole Star in the northern hemisphere, British scientists said. The asteroid weighed about 880 pounds, measured up to 4.5 feet in diameter, struck at roughly 56,000mph, and caused a blast equivalent to 15 tons of TNT—making it three times bigger than any other such recorded hit on the moon, Space.com reports. Similar asteroids hit Earth more commonly than previously believed, but our atmosphere burns them up into so-called "fireball" meteors; on the moon, it's just a direct hit. NASA has seen more than 300 meteors hit the lunar surface since 2005, and plans to keep watching. "In this way we expect to identify clusters of rocks that could give rise to common impact events on both planetary bodies," Madiedo said. "We also want to find out where the impacting bodies come from." (Read more asteroid stories.)

- September 08, 2009 - El Segundo, Calif.-Galorath Incorporated, the producer of the SEER project estimating software is pleased to have received official notification that Galorath's Plug-in for Aerostructures, formerly known as the Composites Affordability Initiative Plug-in, has been freed from restrictions for international sales. This means Galorath can offer SEER for Manufacturing - Aerostructures Edition to customers in any country with which the United States allows trade, as well as use by non-US citizens.
Galorath is proud to have worked with several leading American aerospace manufacturers (Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and GE Aircraft Engines) in a major cooperative effort to develop the Aerostructures plug-in. The plug-in provides a method for quickly and accurately evaluating the cost of alternate composite materials and manufacturing processes.
Specifically, the Aerostructures Plug-in for SEER-MFG provides a direct cost model, which includes over 25 existing and emerging composite fabrication and assembly processes, as well as some state-of-the-art metal processes such as high speed machining and Super Plastic Forming-w-Diffusion Bonding providing a method for quickly and accurately determining and evaluating costs of alternate designs and manufacturing processes. SEER-MFG with its Aerostructures plug-in enables an increased number of trade studies in a shorter period of time resulting in cost reductions by the early identification of the most affordable composite structural concepts with greater dependability than previously possible.
In a case study from Northrop Grumman, they stated: "SEER-MFG with the Aerostructures Plug-in is the heart of our cost evaluation on the F-35." "Assessments of cost for assembly and composite operations come out of the plug-in, and it provides the totalness and versatility that is required in aerospace engineering that was not available before." Both Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin engineers for the F-35 program had established SEER-MFG with the Aerostructures Plug-in as the "tool of choice." It is being used daily to perform trade studies and as an affordability tool.
For more than two decades Galorath Incorporated has developed solutions to help government and commercial organizations plan and manage complex software, hardware, electronics and manufacturing projects. Leveraging sophisticated modeling technology and project-applicable knowledge bases, SEER solutions enable engineers, project managers, cost analysts and IT professionals worldwide to simulate and analyze alternative project scenarios, develop and optimize detailed project plans and ensure that projects stay on track and meet objectives for functionality, cost, effort, duration and quality. Combined with extensive consulting and support services, SEER by Galorath is the most comprehensive, intuitive project estimation and management solution in the industry.

Let's say this wasn't the best 24 hours for the Baltimore Ravens.
On Sunday night, Baltimore inexplicably gave up a 49-yard touchdown to Cincinnati Bengals receiver Tyler Boyd on fourth-and-12, which was the game-winning score in a game that knocked the Ravens out of the playoffs. Then on Monday morning it was reported that one of the architects of their success this decade is retiring.
Defensive coordinator Dean Pees, one of the most respected coordinators in the NFL, is retiring according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Pees, who spent most of the early part of his career in college and was the head coach at Kent State from 1998-2003, had a big hand in the success of two of the best franchises in the NFL this century. He was with the New England Patriots from 2004-09, and was defensive coordinator his final four seasons there. He joined the Ravens in 2010. He was linebackers coach for two seasons and defensive coordinator for six, including the Ravens' 2012 Super Bowl championship season.
There was a report Sunday that Pees was considering retirement, and after the game the players showed their respect for the work he has done.
"All I can say is I appreciate him," defensive tackle Brandon Williams told the Baltimore Sun. "He's the best defensive coordinator I've ever been around."
"His fingerprints are all across this defense," cornerback Brandon Carr told the Sun. "Just the years that he's been here, you've seen the shutouts and big-game defenses that we've had from his play-calling. So without him, moving forward, if it happens that way, we're going to miss him. But at the same time, it's going to be time for the next person to step up, that next signal caller for the Ravens defense to go out here and call some plays for us."
The Ravens had an aggressive defense that was a huge reason the team was in playoff contention right until the end of the regular season. Through the years the Ravens have been known as a strong defensive team. That reputation preceded Pees, but he did a great job keeping the tradition going through his excellent play-calling.
The Ravens didn't expect their offseason to begin so suddenly, and now they have a big task of replacing a coordinator who helped shape their success.

True Love Will Find You in the End
Well, I never thought I'd have a Daniel Johnston song on my ipod, but I've been obsessed with this simple, hopeful yet melancholic track. If you haven't already seen the excellent documentary "The Devil and Daniel Johnston," which is a portrait of the manic-depressive singer/songwriter/artist, then I highly recommend you get yourself a copy and take a look.
Beck covers Johnston:

Sam Allardyce admits Sunderland could bring in more than their two planned signings in the January transfer window.
But an injury blow to Younes Kaboul will NOT alter Allardyce's thinking over fresh blood, with a new centre-half already at the top of the Sunderland manager's wish-list.
Sunderland's priorities for the window are to bring in a centre-forward and centre-half, with the latter position becoming even more pressing after Kaboul was ruled out for several weeks with a hamstring problem.
Kaboul tore his hamstring in last weekend's defeat at Chelsea, to leave John O'Shea and Sebastian Coates as near-certain starters for Boxing Day's clash at Manchester City, with only veteran Wes Brown and youngster Tom Beadling in reserve.
However, if second-bottom Sunderland are able to offload players next month, then that could prompt further acquisitions to boost the Black Cats' survival bid.
Allardyce said: "I still think we'd have wanted a centre-half (if Kaboul had not been injured), because sometimes we'll play with a back three.
"If you're going to strengthen, it's got to be the core of the team first of all.
"Who might leave, who knows?
"Some of the players might not play as much as they want and say they're not happy. Does somebody else want them?
"A bit of trading might be the case, so you end up bringing in more than you think.
"It's a balance of the quality of the player, financial package, a desire to come.
"It will change week in, week out. All of a sudden, a player will pop up that you didn't think was available and might want to come.
"You have an opportunity so you need to be able to strike as quickly as you can."
However, the absence of Kaboul does leave Sunderland's squad stretched over the festive period.
Seb Larsson and Lee Cattermole have missed the last three games through injury, Jack Rodwell is suspended against Manchester City on Saturday and forgotten man Adam Matthews has torn his ankle ligaments.
And with the squad depleted over the busy festive period, Allardyce is hoping to bring in players at the start of the window.
Allardyce added: "We've got our finger on the pulse with negotiations in a lot of areas – various positions, various players who are available.
"Those processes are being done here and now and have been done for the last few days in the hope that we can pull one off in the early stages of January.
"If not, then we certainly want to get two players by the back end of January to help us in our push to get out of the bottom three."

June certainly presented some ups and downs for me. Overall I decided that I needed a bit of a blogging break. I am at a point now where I feel refreshed and ready to start up again.
One of the major ups of June was finishing my final semester of school. I am so excited to be finished with that chapter and move on to the next one. My mom found this adorable bicycle bell and sent it to me as a graduation gift. It is so suiting, my bike has really been my car for the past three years here in Eindhoven. It has gotten me to school on time rain or shine day in and day out. Not to mention that it carries just about anything I require (including my oversized prototypes and a pile of 2x4's)
Who needs a car really anyways?
I took the new bell out for a spin yesterday and met up with some friends for celebration drinks.
I've been writing lists and making plans for the coming weeks, so I will have lots of fun activities to share in the near future :)

The common perception of pre-Islamic Makkah during the age of ignorance (or 'jāhiliyya') is that society was wholly immoral, that they were tribal savages who did not know right from wrong. It is said that Islam came to these people because they were in desperate need of it. What is often overlooked are the admirable qualities that eventually made them the right hosts for the early stages of its journey and propagation.
Of the significant pre-Islamic events, consider the chivalrous pact that was made against a notable Makki, who refused to pay for some valuable goods as he thought that, because the merchant was foreign (non-Makki), he could get away with it. The clans pledged that they would stand together against the oppressor until justice was done. Muhammad (s), who was taken along by his uncle, said: "I was present in the house of Abdullāh ibn Jud'ān at so excellent a pact that I would not exchange my part in it for a herd of red camels; and if now, in Islam, I were summoned to it, I would gladly respond." (Ibn Ishāq)
And what about the rebuilding of the Ka'bah, following a flash flood, as a smaller square instead of its original rectangle? The Quraysh decided to use licit funds only (and not the proceeds of usury or prostitution) and, as such, the smaller square is what the Quraysh could afford to rebuild. They discerned right from wrong and feared sacrilege.
Such examples not only raise important questions as to what 'jāhiliyya' really means but also ask whether Islam came to Arabia only because they were in need of it, or because they also had the requisite qualities to eventually carry the message. More crucially, do we today exhibit these good qualities which were valued and implemented even in pre-Islamic Makkah?

Selling older iPhones is Apple's new strategy to gain market share in India. The iPhone 4 was released in June 2010 but is still available and popular in emerging markets like India. Not only can you find the iPhone 4 in India, you'll also find the iPhone 4s that launched in October 2011.
225 million smartphones were sold in India last year. Apple wants a bigger slice of that action and is offering older devices to gain market share.
Here's Punit Mathur, vice president of a digital media company who made the switch from a Nexus 4 to an iPhone 4s:
"You flaunt an iPhone, but you don't flaunt an Android. An iPhone 5s that would cost 53,500 rupees ($874) is too expensive, but the 4s is still an upgrade."
The plan to gain a footing in emerging markets is by offering factory-refurbished phones from developed markets. This strategy to sell older handsets in India is a test for Apple. If successful, its' likely they'll expand to even more emerging markets like Brazil and Indonesia. Places where it's the norm, not the exception, to pay for devices outright.
What do you think of Apple's strategy to sell older hardware in emerging markets?

SCOTUS Expands Parole Rights For Juveniles Sentenced to Life:
The Supreme Court on Monday ruled that its 2012 decision banning mandatory life-without-parole sentences for juvenile killers must be applied retroactively, granting a new chance at release for hundreds of inmates serving life sentences without the possibility of parole for murders they committed in their youth.The vote was 6 to 3, and the majority decision was written by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, the court's leading proponent of cutting back on the death penalty and other harsh punishments for entire classes of offenders. His opinion strengthened the 2012 decision, which merely required new sentencing where life without parole had been imposed automatically, without taking into account the defendant's youth.Monday's opinion indicated that life-without-parole sentences for juvenile offenders should be exceedingly rare. Justice Kennedy also gave states a second option — instead of resentencing the affected prisoners, they could make them eligible for parole.In the 2012 decision, Miller v. Alabama, the Supreme Court ruled that automatic life sentences for juvenile offenders violated the Eighth Amendment's ban on cruel and unusual punishment. Life-without-parole sentences would remain permissible, the court said, but only after individualized consideration. But the court did not say whether the decision was merely prospective or whether it required new sentencing hearings or other review for offenders who had already exhausted their appeals.
As I and others wrote back in 2012 when Miller came down, this question of retroactivity (re Teague v. Lane 1989, and others) would eventually come back before the court. What I didn't predict is that the five who wrote the Miller decision would pick up a vote (CJ Roberts) to join them.
Doug Berman speculates that maybe there was a bit of horsetrading going on (Roberts joins this, the other five stop short of banning all life sentences for all juveniles). Lyle Denniston doesn't really touch on Roberts joining the majority, but gives a reasoned summary of the decision.
I just think it's interesting since at orals in October, he seemed as skeptical as the other three dissenters.
Nonetheless, the day this decision came down, the president also announced a categorical ban on solitary confinement for juveniles in federal prisons, another landmark move for juvenile rights in the criminal justice system.
President Obama on Monday banned the practice of holding juveniles in solitary confinement in federal prisons, saying it could lead to "devastating, lasting psychological consequences."The move, which Mr. Obama outlined in an op-ed article published by The Washington Post on Monday night, adds the weight of the federal government to a growing movement among state prison administrators, who have begun sharply limiting or ending the use of solitary confinement.Mr. Obama said federal prisons would no longer use solitary confinement for juveniles or for inmates serving time for low-level infractions. He said the change, along with expanded mental health treatment, would affect as many as 10,000 inmates in the federal system, about a tenth of those being held in solitary confinement in the United States, including in state prisons.
Again, somewhat limited in the sense that it affects only federal institutions (the vast majority of juveniles and/or mentally ill inmates are held in state facilities), but sweeping nevertheless. And his op-ed in the WaPo was even more forceful, even perhaps sending a signal to SCOTUS that the practice might be scrapped permanently as well.
There are as many as 100,000 people held in solitary confinement in U.S. prisons — including juveniles and people with mental illnesses. As many as 25,000 inmates are serving months, even years of their sentences alone in a tiny cell, with almost no human contact.As president, my most important job is to keep the American people safe. And since I took office, overall crime rates have decreased by more than 15 percent. In our criminal justice system, the punishment should fit the crime — and those who have served their time should leave prison ready to become productive members of society. How can we subject prisoners to unnecessary solitary confinement, knowing its effects, and then expect them to return to our communities as whole people? It doesn't make us safer. It's an affront to our common humanity.
He may have also sent a signal to the Catholic members of the court:
In America, we believe in redemption. We believe, in the words of Pope Francis, that "every human person is endowed with an inalienable dignity, and society can only benefit from the rehabilitation of those convicted of crimes." We believe that when people make mistakes, they deserve the opportunity to remake their lives. And if we can give them the hope of a better future, and a way to get back on their feet, then we will leave our children with a country that is safer, stronger and worthy of our highest ideals.
If you remember, Anthony Kennedy issued a out-of-the-blue concurrence in a death penalty case last summer where he suggested it might be time to reconsider solitary as a violation of the 8th amendment. Expect that war drum to get louder as we move forward.
Overall, between the court decision and Obama's order banning solitary, it was a good day for juveniles in the criminal justice system. And a better day for the country.
The case is Montgomery v. Louisiana (2016)

Thesee creative recipes featuring pretzels prove that the salty snack is no longer just a second-rate companion to potato chips. From the sickeningly sweet to the ultra salty, these delicious pretzel recipes offer a host of bold new flavor combinations.
The most popular variation on a pretzel has of course been the pretzel bun. Adding a hint of salt to a basic slice of bread, the pretzel bun has proved perfect for everything from hearty, festive burgers to unusual croissant hybrids. Pretzel bread has even proven pizza-friendly, serving as a delicious substitute for traditional dough.
Beyond transforming pretzels into bread, some of the other bold recipes featuring pretzels demonstrate that the salty snack can easily be added to classic recipes for an unexpected twist on old favorites. Chocolate chip cookies and pretzels seem like a perfectly natural combination, as does the addition of pretzels to buttery popcorn snacks. However, pretzel bits also seem to pair perfectly with decadent cheesecakes and nutty chocolate puddings for a different kind of indulgent dessert.

Are You Silently Incredible?
Several years ago I watched a movie called "Pay It Forward" that touched my heart to the core. The new social studies teacher gives his students an assignment to come up with some idea that will improve or change the world. Young Trevor thinks seriously about this assignment and comes up with just such a plan. You see his notion to change the world is to find 3 people and do a good deed for them, something that they can't do for themselves. Instead of them paying him back for his good deed they are ask to "pay it forward," ... to each find 3 people to bless who each one will do the same for 3 more people.
Trevor's choices to try and help are a homeless man, his physically scarred teacher and a classmate of his that is a constant victim of bullying. After attempting to help the first two he feels like a failure and stops but eventually as the story goes on he is found by a journalist who has been crossing the nation trying to find the originator of the "pay it forward" movement. You see, though Trevor tried to help the homeless man (Jerry) who was addicted to drugs it didn't go well. Jerry eventually leaves town but in the midst of his "bad" place he finds a woman about to commit suicide by jumping off the side of a bridge and talks her down. He can't ignore her needs and walk on as if nothing is going on. The seed of "paying it forward" had been planted in him and just needed time to grow. And it does continue to move forward story after story. Then a journalist becomes the recipient of a brand new Jaguar S-type car after his old Ford Mustang is damaged in a car accident. When he ask why the man was giving him this brand new car he was told that he was just "paying it forward." As he listens to the stories he tracks them back till he eventually finds 12 year old Trevor. Unknown to Trevor, this journalist is evidence that he has not failed. He has silently affected the lives of many people across the nation that he would never know and never meet. So the journalist conducts an interview with Trevor to find out what he was thinking. Trevor explains how "paying it forward" works and explains what his hopes were. He then goes on to explain his concerns that many people are just too afraid to change their own lives in order to make the world a better place.
After the interview, Trevor leaves the classroom and hears the sounds of his friend that is being bullied once again. Even if he couldn't help the others, this is one person he can help. He goes to his classmates defense and ends up being pushed into the main bully who was brandishing a knife. Trevor gets stabbed in the abdomen and sadly enough dies from the stabbing.
Whether because of his death or not the "pay it forward" movement goes nationwide and hundreds of people gather outside of his home to pay their respects to him with a stream of cars visible in the distance all carrying those to are coming to honor Trevor.
Trevor ... in this story.... is silently incredible. He wasn't asking for attention. All he wanted to do was positively affect the lives of those around him. He didn't want people to owe him and he wasn't looking for recognition by others of this "wonderful" thing he'd done for someone. He just wanted to make a difference in someones life.
Are you silently incredible?

DeVos Place celebrates 10th Anniversary with Celebration
Open House, Saturday, June 13th from 10AM - 5PM.
#FBF: 10 Years of Fun
DeVos Place® wasn't always the grand convention center in the heart of Grand Rapids that it is now. The ground upon which it was built was once treaded on by Native Americans, ironmongers, factory workers, retailers and shoppers. With such an important part in Grand Rapids history, the land and area that DeVos Place is built upon has a vibrant history all its own.
Something New
In June 1997, Grand Action, a nonprofit organization that identifies downtown revitalization projects and building, presented information regarding a convention center expansion on the Grand Center. With Grand Rapids growing into a cultural hot spot, conventions would bring business and people to the city. Through a variety of fundraising efforts, the Convention Center Ceremonial Groundbreaking took place in August 2000. The Convention Center would be named DeVos Place. In 2003, the Grand Gallery and Meijer Exhibition Hall were opened with the final addition to the building being completed in 2005 with the opening of the DeVos Place Steelcase Ballroom.
DeVos Place brings Tourism to Grand Rapids
In the ten years that DeVos Place has brought conventions, events and culture to the city, it has been the center to a variety of fun and interesting shows. From bringing a Ferris wheel into the Exhibition Hall for the Grand Opening, to thousands of rabbits for American Rabbit Breeders Association and beyond. It has also been the pinnacle of its community with thousands of people attending events and millions being spent on the city, bringing forth a true economic impact.
DeVos Place is celebrating with an Open House on Saturday, June 13th from 10AM-5PM! There will be free parking, free hot dog and Pepsi® for the first 10,000 people, Ferris wheel and much more! Community organizations such as the Kent District Library, Grand Rapids Police Department, the Harbor Humane Society, and many more will be present with a variety of activities for all ages. There will also be two entertainment stages with performances such as Jump with Jill, The Diemakers, Pacific Island Dancers, Bangarang Circus and much more! For a full list of performances, and more information about the DeVos Place 10th Anniversary Open House, please visit our Facebook or website!

The company's book-to-bill ratio was 1.15, compared with 1.11 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 and 0.89 a year ago. Net income for the quarter was $1.6 million, or 9 cents per diluted share, compared with $3.3 million, or 21 cents per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 1998. After a challenging first three quarters, we're pleased to have regained our revenue momentum and returned to solid profitability in the fourth quarter, said Patrick L. Edsell, Spectra-Physics' chairman, president and CEO. Our initiatives to focus on high-growth opportunities in telecommunications and other strategic markets have begun to yield results. We have entered the new fiscal year with a strong order flow and look forward to further strengthening our business through 2000 and beyond. Last week the company announced that it had signed its first multi-year sales agreement for 200-GHz thin-film filters -- part of Spectra-Physics' Zeroshift line of passive optical components -- with a major manufacturer of dense-WDM devices for the telecommunications market.

There is always hope in Christ!
Are we not like that too? No matter how bruised or battered we are by life and the world, there is hope! Hope in Christ! At the scent of water, God's living water, we start to shoot out roots of change, which leads to growth, which leads to foliage, and ultimately, fruit in Christ!
My encouragement to you is to search out and tap into God's living waters.
God bless

Despite the Republic of Ireland's diligent best efforts, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was never going to go quietly.
The 34-year-old forward might have collected seven league titles across Netherlands, Italy and Spain before arriving at Paris Saint-Germain, but the French capital will always be the place where he finally lived up to the self-made myth.
In Paris, Zlatan dared to Zlatan like Zlatan had never dared before.
A 50-goal haul this season while becoming the club's all-time record scorer led PSG to a fourth-consecutive Ligue 1 title. Three Coupe de la Ligue titles and two Coupe de France medals - won in successive treble successes -have also followed.
Perhaps it isn't so hard to see why the enigmatic Swede suggested a statue of Eiffel Tower-proportions would persuade him against a PSG departure now confirmed. At the very least he deserved an encore.
And so, a little more than three weeks on from an Ibrahimovic brace helping PSG to a 4-2 Coupe de France final triumph over rivals Marseille in the Stade de France, he led out his country for the start of their Euro 2016 campaign.
Additionally, there was the chance to pip Cristiano Ronaldo to becoming the first man to score in four separate European Championships - a delicious prospect given the often barely disguised contempt Ibrahimovic displays for his fellow global superstar.
The winners of Group E will return to Saint-Denis, those in third could play a quarter-final here and the man linked heavily to Manchester United may yet take on PSG in the opposing dressing room
But the fact remains this was possibly Ibrahimovic's last tango in a city he made his own.
It was one he began without dance partners as Ireland carried the greater threat. Ibrahimovic's most significant contribution in the opening quarter of an hour was blocking a near-post corner and dribbling out of the Sweden box.
He slipped up in his defensive responsibilities shortly afterwards as Ciaran Clark won a flick on and Ireland captain John O'Shea should have converted.
Further close shaves followed - most notably Jeff Hendrick rattling the crossbar - and there was nothing by way of comparison to excite the many thousands resplendent in Swedish yellow.
Their hero shimmied effortless past O'Shea on the edge of the edge of the Ireland box, an off-key pass and lethargic touch from recipient Sebastian Larsson ending that foray, but Ibrahimovic was generally strangled in search of such room as two narrow four-man midfields did their best impression of Paris city centre traffic.
A rancid free-kick scuffed into the base of the wall was the low point of his first-half work, and things would get worse when Wes Hoolahan smashed home shortly after the interval.
Standing in isolation from the green pandemonium, Zlatan was first to the centre circle, with the ball retrieved and trying to cajole his weary colleagues.
The pre-Paris Ibrahimovic might have sulked, but this is the city where the myth became a man. He rolled-up his sleeves, he fought and Sweden followed.
Ireland survived a flurry of corners more by luck than judgement before Ibrahimovic outmuscled O'Shea and his stabbed volley crept wide with goalkeeper Darren Randolph rooted.
An impeccably drilled Ireland backline were beginning to see the finish line when it happened. Ibrahimovic was alive to a cute backheel from substitute John Guidetti and tore around O'Shea to smash across the face of goal, where the unfortunate Clark diverted the ball past Randolph.
Ibrahimovic's momentum almost vaulted him over the advertising hoardings. He let out a roar of delight at one more joyous moment in a city where he provided so many.

Regulating Your Home's Water Pressure
Do you know how high the water pressure in your home is? Do you know what the recommended amount is? 9 out of 10 homeowners do not know that their water pressure is higher than the recommended amount. What's worse, most homeowners don't even know that having high water pressure … Continue reading

Mr Abhisit and his then-deputy Suthep Thaugsuban were formally charged at Bangkok's Department of Special Investigation (DSI), making them the first officials to face a court over Thailand's worst political violence in decades.
"The DSI has charged Abhisit and Suthep on section 288, which is murder. They both denied the charge," senior Democrat Party legislator Thavorn Senniem told AFP.
Hundreds of riot police flanked the building, as about 20 supporters carrying roses and dozens of protesters holding pictures of those killed in the unrest watched the former leader arrive.
About 90 people died and nearly 1,900 were wounded in a series of street clashes between "Red Shirt" demonstrators and security forces, which culminated in a deadly army operation in May 2010 to break up the protest.
The charge against Mr Abhisit, who was prime minister at the time, relates to the fatal shooting of taxi driver Phan Kamkong.
DSI chief Tarit Pengdith announced the move last Thursday and said it was prompted by a court's ruling in September that Phan was shot by troops – the first completed inquest into the bloodshed.
Mr Abhisit dismissed the case against him as "political" last week, saying he had no choice but to take tough action.
He said he would accept trial rather than "bargain" over a proposal by his political rivals in government for a wide-ranging amnesty plan that many believe could allow the return of the Reds' hero, ousted former premier Thaksin Shinawatra.
But experts believe British-born Mr Abhisit is unlikely to face jail because of his close ties to the Thai establishment.

I had this at a brunch the other day and knew I needed to get the recipe. It is amazing on Waffles, or ice cream, or whatever your heart desires. It is super delicious!!
7 Tbsp Butter (no substitutes)
1 1/2 C. Chopped Pecans
1 1/2 C. Brown Sugar
3 Tbsp. Flour
1 1/2 C. Corn Syrup
1 1/2 C. Evaporated Milk
In a heavy Sauce pan melt 3 Tbsp of butter over medium heat. Add the pecans and cook for 5 minutes or until fragrant. Remove pecans from heat and set aside in a separate bowl. Using the same sauce pan melt the remaining 4 Tbsp. of butter. Once melted, whisk in the brown sugar, flour, and corn syrup until well blended. Cook on high for 6-8 minutes until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture starts to thicken. Then add the Evaporated milk to the pan and cook a minute more. Mixture will thicken as it cools, but you may need to cook it a little longer if it thins out too much with the milk. Pour into your favorite syrup container, and enjoy!

Ketala Fenriver
Antisocial hawk elf
Ketala was hired by King Bergen to watch over the adventurers and to easily pass messages and items to and fro from the allied leaders to their team under cover. She can shape change from a hawk into an elf, and can fly with magically enhanced speed. Not much is known about her, except that she seems to have a chip on her shoulder for the adventurers, and she seems particularly out of sorts when visiting Mixed Bag.

Just got my CPX-1, and haven't been to the range yet... But I notice that when I put regular ball ammo in it, the magazine pops out fine. If I put some fancy hollowpoints in, sometimes I the release sticks--I push it and nothing happens. I have to pull the magazine out.
Is this an issue with the ammo? Or do I maybe have a bad magazine? A bad magazine release?
For that matter, after reading the manufacturer recommendation to avoid steel and aluminum case ammo, I'm wondering if my expensive hollowpoints are going to even feed properly. I have grown rather accustomed to carrying hollowpoints and being comforted to know they are more likely to stay in a target than pass through and hit some bystander. (I carried a full sized Ruger for years, but retired and turned it back in, switching to a SCCY for its much more compact size).

Speaking in response to the House of Commons International Development Committee report and statement that the Department for International Development (DFID) should be prepared to miss aid targets where there are delays or cancellations to its planned projects, ActionAid Executive Director Richard Miller said that paying attention to value for money is vital but poor people can't wait for life-saving aid.
"The government should be commended for its commitment to spend 0.7 per cent of national income on aid and upholding this longstanding promise would be a positive sign of the UK's leadership on international development as it prepares to host the 2013 G8 summit in June.
"Delaying aid spending need not be the default solution for the problems highlighted in the Committee's report. The answer, as the report itself suggests, is to ensure DFID has the delivery capacity it needs. The report itself highlights the opportunities for greater engagement with civil society organisations. In ensuring development impact and value for money, the issue should not be whether we support initiatives but how we support them. The shifts in DFID spending noted in the report suggest that aid can play a positive role in change, for example through the strengthening of local tax collection systems.
"Of course it is legitimate for the report to scrutinise the effectiveness of spending via multilateral institutions such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. ActionAid has long campaigned for reforms to ensure investment in such institutions is effective in promoting poverty reduction. But a blanket approach should not be taken and decisions must be based on evidence and handled on a case-by-case basis, for example through the on-going multilateral aid review.
"We know that there are clear examples of where spending aid money through international organisations has been effective in supporting development and saving lives. DFID's financial support of global health funds providing vaccines and tackling HIV and Aids is one. Such bodies offer opportunities for economies of scale and maximising impact."

|The college stands in the angle between the eastern side of Turl Street and the southern side of Broad Street. It was founded in 1314 by Bishop Walter de Stapledon[1] of Exeter to train priests for his diocese. Eight of the students were to come from Devon and four from Cornwall. The chaplain was to study theology as well as performing his ordinary duties, the rector was to be elected from the ranks of the students. Bishop de Stapledon was murdered by a London mob in 1326. He had incurred great unpopularity because of his close association with Edward II.[2] His work for the college was left incomplete.
Most of the buildings are of recent date, but there is a fifteenth century fragment opposite the east end of the chapel. This chapel is an exact copy of the Sainte Chapelle in Paris and was constructed by Gilbert Scott in its present form on the site of an older building in 1855.
Richard Bristow,[3] who played an important part in the compilation of the Douai bible, was a member of the college. The rector and students put up a considerable resistance to the religious innovations of the Reformation. (From Goulder, Pilgrimage Pamphlets: Oxford & Cambridge, 1963)
The Rector, Dean and a Fellow were expelled for 'Popery' in 1571; in 1578 it was said that the College had 'but four obedient subjects, all the rest secret or open Roman affectionaries.' The College's fidelity to the Catholic Faith bore fruit in the martydoms of two of its Fellows, St Ralph Sherwin, protomartyr of the Venerable English College, Rome (at Tyburn, in 1581) and Blessed John Cornelius SJ (Dorchester in Dorset, 1594). Richard Bristowe was converted while at Exeter in 1575.

Mojo's World
As usual, Mojo was found near the combat outpost, on the front steps of the governance center. As the mayor's son, he has the unofficial responsibility of hawking as much crap obtained by less than legal means as possible our way. Phone cards, cell phones, movies, iPods, and various forms of porn far more creative than necessary are always readily available through him – and that's what he's willing to try and sell in front of the LT. I've been informed there are even less refined aspects of the Mojo inventory. This isn't exactly your friendly suburban neighborhood lemonade stand.
"LT," he said, greeting me with a sly grin and green eyes that are far too dubious for one so young. "Maybe you want the phone cards today?"
I paused next to him, meeting the extended fist bump, and took off my Kevlar helmet. "I'm good on phone cards," I told him, relishing the simple pleasure of running my hands through my cragged spikes of hair still drenched in sweat. "You got any Boom-Booms?" I asked, referencing the local brand of energy drink. The theories of what exactly makes up a Boom-Boom are many, but it certainly can keep a man awake hours beyond what the body is capable of. If it means anything, I haven't failed a piss test yet.
"Why don't you ever go to school?" It was the voice of SFC Big Country. My platoon sergeant has the rare gift of asking questions in the form of an order, no matter whom it is posed to. I've seen many young soldiers turn into deers caught in headlights because of this, and Mojo was no different.
"Because … well, because they would steal me or kill me if I went," he responded eventually, kicking pebbles as he spoke. The green eyes swung back up at us from the concrete. "Mother fuckers. So I stay here, where the Americans are. And my father says getting my English better is better than school."
SFC Big Country and I looked at each other, and exchanged conciliatory nods. "A fair point," he said. "Although you probably should know soldier-English is a little different than regular English, Mojo. You can't say 'fuck' every other word in America like we do here."
A group of my Alpha section soldiers walked up at this time, bringing a bright smile to Mojo's face. He momentarily shed the front of mischievous skeptic when SPC Haitian Sensation picked him up and twirled him around, and began to giggle - freely and easily and joyfully, just like any other child deserves to in this world.
"How old are you today?" SPC Haitian Sensation asked him, putting him back down on the ground, next to the broom closet that serves as Mojo's shop.
"I'm still fifteen," came the reply. It's not as outrageous of a lie as it appeared, even though Mojo doesn't look a day over a malnutritioned nine; the brutal reality is that most Anu al-Verona citizens do not know their exact age. Birth certificates aren't exactly a traditional commodity over here. Most aren't even sure what year it was when we invaded, even though that was only five years ago. Time is a lot more malleable in the third world.
We waited for the rest of the platoon, and started moving towards the combat outpost again. Mojo bartered quickly with a few of my soldiers, something I decided I was better off turning two blind eyes to. I had a patrol debrief to get to, anyways. I was halfway up the stairs when I heard a voice behind me.
"Hey LT!" It was Mojo, scurrying after me. He handed me a Boom-Boom, and winked. "On the house," he says, repeating a phrase SSG Bulldog taught him. As he ran back over to his Gravedigger clientele, I shook my head in bemusement.
That kid is going to either end up very rich or very dead, I thought to myself. Local kingpin or bust. I cracked open my Boom-Boom, and decided that it will probably be the former. He has certainly had enough examples of the latter over the course of this war to study. Just another sort of education that can't be learned in school.
Mojo is still at his lemonade stand as I type this. He hasn't gone home with the sunset for a few days, though. Call it a hunch, but it may be a couple more days until he does.

If I were unaware of the current situation with JAM, I would think it was just another quite day in the lives of "The gravediggers". It is a nice piece of writing, as usual. Your Irish ancestors had a prayer with you in mind.
I hope and pray that none may kill me,
Nor I kill any, with woundings grim
But if ever any should think to kill me
I pray thee, God, let me kill him

Yeah, you can always tell when a natural disaster is coming. The native species go into hiding. You don't really know how they know, but you know to start looking out for yourself, if you want to survive whaterver natural disaster is coming.
Good to hear from you. Sorry this is happening. Wish you were back home safe already. Big stuff coming up. Play it real safe, will ya?

Hate to see a kid grow up in that environment (and he is one of many), with death and destruction all around. He is aged before his time.
Stay frosty Lt. Mojo is probably one of the best set of eyes you got. But stay frosty, and bring the gravediggers home.

LT G, watch a full 360 and trust your instincts to get you and the Gravediggers back safely. Mojo might be a good guy or he might be trying to earn his $20. Your call is always a tough one and that's why you get paid the big bucks and have that high exalted rank. Heck it must be time to tip back another Guinness in your honor.
Also, please say a prayer for the soul of Staff Sgt. Maupin who's being returned home.

LT G, Here's insane Iraqi oxymoron:
From today's Reuters wire service."We are now making phone calls to headquarters," a low-level Mehdi Army commander in Baghdad's Sadr City, Abu Haidar told Reuters. "We don't know what to do. If we carry guns the government will oppose us, but if we put them down, the Americans will come, surround our homes and capture us." Excuse me, are we all confused?
May you get through this Iraqi selfdestruct that tries to take you down with them, and come home. But sadly, it sucks to be a Mojo.

BTW: You may have already seen this but . . .
Achmed the dead terrorist;
Either you haven't seen it, and it's funny, or you've had it so long you think I'm funny. Either way, enjoy.
Saw your 'Doone today. Rerun? That dark stuff is situationally appropriate. I remember being a JO (PAO) during 'Nam. AFRTS and MACV censored anything that wasn't 'positive'. Negative (no mater what the 'truthiness' content) was not an option.
We couldn't report any of the really heroic stuff because it DID involve loss of life and limb. In the end, we gave up, did what we were told, and cynically adopted the motto, "We make war fun". I never entered journalism again.
I've respected and enjoyed your candid and self depreciating viewpoint. BTW: Mojo will be, as a survivor in these chaotic times, equally dangerous as friend or foe. Although he is a child, he is also a survivor in one of the grimmest places on the planet.
While you gotta respect that, it also means that others, previously around him, likely did not survive. Kids were some of the most lethal adversaries because western morality and concepts ruled out a child as a potential combatant. This morality does not apply universally. Point is, well, you decide what the point is. As always, prayers for you and you unit to return home safely.

Hey LT, I stumbled on your blog, it's interesting reading about you and the 'gravediggers'. I'm actually heading over to Iraq in a month, so it's interesting reading stuff about your experiences over there. I'm deploying for a year to Camp Anaconda.

Open-Label, Multi-Center, Phase 2 Study of Anti-CCR4 Monoclonal Antibody KW-0761 (Mogamulizumab) in Subjects With Previously Treated Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL)
PTCL is a rare and heterogeneous disease that remains difficult to diagnose and treat. In
the majority of PTCL subtypes, patients are of older age (>60 years) and present with
advanced stage disease.With the exception of the ALCL-ALK-positive subtype that responds
well to CHOP combined chemotherapy, most PTCL subtypes become refractory even to aggressive
chemotherapy regimens or relapse. Overall survival of PTCL patients is poor compared with
that of aggressive B-cell lymphomas.Thus, novel and effective therapies are
needed.KW-0761(mogamulizumab) is a defucosylated, humanized, IgG1 mAb with enhanced antibody
dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)that binds to CCR4, a molecule that is suggested to be
significantly involved in patients with PTCL.
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
