The Motorcycle Personality Test
Their result for The Motorcycle Personality Test ...
The Old Volvo
You scored -4 moxie, -4 zeal, and -6 pomp!
Because you aren't especially interested in style, of all the test-takers that scored in the Volvo family, you are the most likely to actually own a Volvo, probably one that is old and rusted and a lot less safe than you think it is.
In any case, you are entirely unsuited for motorcycling. In fact, your propensity for suddenly slamming on the brakes at the end of highway onramps, driving 55mph in the left lane, leaving your blinker on for 10 miles, and "being nice" by unpredictably stopping in a multi-lane road to let people turn in front of you makes you fairly unsuited for driving anywhere, particularly if there are any motorcycles around to get crushed by your tank-like car.
Their Analysis (Vertical line = Average)
They scored -4% on moxie, higher than 3% of your peers.
They scored -4% on zeal, higher than 5% of your peers.
They scored -6% on pomp, higher than 1% of your peers.

Australia 1974
USA 2002, England 2003-2006, USA from 2006
Model for a sunken monument
synthetic polymer paint on composition board
108.2 (h) x 222.0 (w) x 242.2 (d) cm
National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne Purchased through The Art Foundation of Victoria with the assistance of the Joan Clemenger Endowment, Governor, 1999 DC3.A-L-1999
© Ricky Swallow
Ricky Swallow's sculpture has long revealed a connection to, and reinvestment in, the objects and images that were significant in his childhood. His back catalogue is replete with model-like recreations of a hand-held Game Boy, a BMX bike, his family's telescope and first portable tape recorder, as well as a series of revolving diorama-like worlds that sit atop old record players.[1] It is perhaps not surprising, given the overwhelming impact and popular appeal of George Lucas's Star Wars for his generation, that Darth Vader also made his way into the 'boys-own-zone' repertoire of Swallow's early work.
The artist's interest in the imaginative and otherworldly possibilities of sci-fi cinema (with its embrace of both illusionism and special effects) is reflected in works that draw upon popular films, including Planet of the apes 1968, Westworld 1973, ET 1982 and Stanley Kubrick's 2001: a space odyssey 1968. Within this context, the strange and self-conscious exactitude of many of the artist's sculptures―the fact they so closely replicate real objects but in fact do not (and cannot) work―makes them seem like obsolete film props. Just as the make-believe nature of a prop or puppet is revealed when no longer animated by living actors, Swallow's work is 'empty' and shell-like as if the life has somehow been sucked out.
In Model for a sunken monument, Darth Vader's stratified, topographical form slowly melts, and the hard, angular surfaces of his fearful visage undergo transformation; he is caught in a suspended moment of mellifluous ooze. The unsettling stillness which characterises Swallow's recent carved wooden sculptures is also evident in this slowing eroding Sphinx from 1999. Darth Vader's form resembles the human skull, a recurring motif in the artist's oeuvre. Replete with contemporary fashion, design and sub-cultural associations such as Goths and skaters, the skull also makes reference to concepts in art history like the vanitas. It circulates within the artist's practice as a marker of the passing of time. On a fundamental level, the skull is a poignant reminder of our impending deaths. For Swallow it also becomes a symbol of the time it takes to physically craft his works and, ultimately, to view them. As the artist has stated: 'I still think the time invested in a piece is somehow contained or embalmed in the object in the final result and also contributes to the time an audience can spend with a piece ... There must be an equation there ... Again I'm thinking of the phrase "to give something time."'[2]
This sense of time past, and of the importance of memory, is also highlighted by Vader's status as 'monument', as expressed in the work's title. The sculpture's commemorative role is achieved through the medium's ability to 'freeze' its subject in the past, as soon as the work is complete. There is of course a certain irony to the artist's inadvertent claims―sculptor of monuments/monumental sculptor?―his choice of 'bad guy' sitter, and the fact that this work captures a moment in what appears to be its own demise. Firmly weighted to the ground despite its slipstream physicality, Swallow's sculpture does not tower above its audience on a traditional museum plinth, As we circumnavigate it, gravity pulls the work's dissolving hard/soft form into a strangely still pool at the edge of our feet.

Researchers at Mayo Clinic are using genetic sequencing to improve treatments for men with advanced prostate cancer.
Those with advanced prostate cancer can have tumors resistant to standard hormone treatments that lower testosterone. This stage is called castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) — when hormonal treatments no longer control the cancer.
Using an individualized approach, researchers are attempting to study the genetic changes within the tissue of metastatic prostate cancer tumors to better understand how to treat and gain control of the cancer.
The research is called the Prostate Cancer Medically-Optimized Genome Enhanced Therapy (PROMOTE) study, and is sponsored by the Mayo Clinic Center for Individualized Medicine.
Men with CRPC have many treatment options that can prolong life after hormone therapies stop working. However, there's still no cure for CRPC. Also, there's no way to predict how each patient will respond to each treatment.
The study will attempt to understand how the tumors of those enrolled respond to different treatments, based on the genetic information of their individual tumors.
As part of the research, a biopsy is taken from the one of the sites in the body where the prostate cancer tumors have spread. The tissue is analyzed in the laboratory to study and test which drugs work best against the tumor. Once treatment starts, participants' tumors are closely monitored by medical oncologists with periodic imaging scans to see how the tumors respond to the new treatments.
All men who are diagnosed with castration-resistant prostate cancer are eligible to participate in the study who:
The cost of the drug is covered for the first 12 weeks of the study during which time two tumor biopsies are performed.
PROMOTE aims to help physicians better understand which drugs to prescribe, based on the genetic makeup of each person's individual cancer, and help patients live with a better control of their cancer.
For more information about the PROMOTE study, please call (507) 538-7623 or visit the Center for Individualized Medicine page at Mayo Clinic (http://mayoresearch.mayo.edu/center-for-individualized-medicine/prostate-cancer-study.asp).

Guys, I have had a Rough Road, let me tell ya!! I have had Two Life Saving Transplants at Fairview Hospital in Minneapolis there. My Senior Year, at Arizona State there, my Senior Year, I got Valley Fever!! That is a Disease, you get from even being in Arizona Desert there!!! It is a Dust Sphore, and does NOT affect most People, but it sure did Me though. Out of the 12 People who got it when I did, I am the ONLY One still Living!!!! Yes, Crazy for sure. And the Energy I got off this Coffee, was just Crazy!! And the Health Benefits, is really Cool Obviously.
I was Told, about this Miracle Coffee, and it is Amazing for sure too. It has a Bunch of these items used in Alternative Medicine too. But if you watch ANY Drug Commercial these Days, you might Consider Alternative Medicine too!! The Comedy Guys, talking about the Commercials on TV, listing the "Side Effects" they call them too, that are LONGER, than the Good things the Drug does too!!! Not for Me anyway. I found a Solution, and it is ALL Natural too!! This Coffee, has these Ancient Mushrooms Extracts in it, and it Tastes Great too. Look below, at One of the Stuff in it too!!
Ganoderma shows promise in reducing cholesterol levels and easing allergy-related inflammation of the airways, according to preliminary evidence from animal-based studies. Here's a look at more of the science behind ganoderma's health-enhancing effects.
1) Cancer and the Immune System
Often used as an immune stimulant by people with cancer, ganoderma has been shown to strengthen immunity as well as combat cancer-cell proliferation. In a 2003 study of 34 people with advanced-stage cancer, for instance, taking ganoderma in supplement form three times daily for 12 weeks led to a significant increase in T-cells (known to play a central role in immune defense).
Lab tests on breast cancer cells, meanwhile, found that combining extracts of ganoderma and green tea heightened the mushroom's ability to slow cancer-cell growth.
2) Antioxidant Benefits
Several small studies have suggested that regular use of ganoderma supplements may increase your levels of antioxidants, compounds thought to protect against disease and aging.
3) Relief of Urinary Tract Symptoms
In a 2008 study of 88 men with urinary tract symptoms, researchers found that ganoderma was significantly superior to placebo in providing symptom relief.
Using Ganoderma For Health
Ganoderma is available in capsules and liquid extracts, both of which can be found at health food stores. You can also take ganoderma in tea or coffee form, but beware that the flavor may be bitter.
This response is for Anne. Many times, the genetic make-up of a tumor cells change after initial or subsequent treatments. This is why it would be important to biopsy tissue from the current location of the prostate cancer. The tumor may be resistant to what worked previously. This is the main idea behind the study - to discover how each individual tumor is unique and form a treatment strategy designed to better control the cancer for that specific person.
In Germany, a process called transurethral hyperthermia has been used with great success for approximately twenty five years. It is very low cost and the survival rate is something that no US method has come close to. Why are there no clinical trials advertised and why do US doctors apparently receive no information on it?
My husband has just started hormone therapy after PSA went to undetectable after surgery, crept back up, back to undetectable after radiation, now creeping up slowly. Are there any genomic studies from his original pathology prior to the cancer showing up as a tumor. Current bone scan was negative. Thanks
Dean, thanks so much for sharing your blog. Writing about your cancer experience is so valuable for you as well as other survivors. Keeping an ongoing journal (or blog) can help reflect on your feelings and emotions and help you stay connected with others, which is so important! I encourage you to keep writing and sharing with others.
I have started a cancer blog and would like to know if can be added to your blog website.
Thank you.

Ulises Maldonado of Puerto Rico led all scorers with 21 points while Ricardo Archilla added 17 and Ezequiel Cruz 15.

''It was our first match and we weren't able to keep our rhythm,'' said Tolinson Aquino, captain of the Dominican Republic. ''We made mistakes on easy plays and struggled with our serve.''

Mexico wins five-set thriller over Venezuela at Pan Am Cup
GATINEAU – Fighting for its playoff life, Mexico defeated Venezuela in a five set thriller in Group A action Tuesday at the Pan Am Cup men's volleyball tournament 25-16, 23-25, 23-25, 25-15, 15-13.

''It was a great battle, the teams played with heart,'' said Mexico's captain Jorge Quinones. ''We played a very good the first set, the next two sets not so good and then we were better in sets four and five.''
''It was a very hard match and the rhythm changed a lot,'' added Mexico's head coach Jorge Azair. ''But it was better than yesterday ( a loss to Brazil) and we were a lot less nervous.''

The Americans feel they are improving.
''This victory was a big step for us,'' said U.S., captain Robert Tarr. ''We showed we have a really deep team with some experience and some young guys who have come in and done a really good job. Panama presented some challenges and we had to be disciplined.''

''Our team played its best against a very strong opponent,'' said Panama's head coach Sergio Ballestas. ''We have some new players and we haven't played together in any league or tournament.''

I hope no Coach interviews for the Bills.
I'm a diehard Tennessee Volunteers can and we just went through this whole spiel with Gruden coming to Knoxville including a few extremely reliable sources saying that a deal was in place and that it was only a matter of time before Gruden became our next head coach. Of course it could have fallen through at the last minute like some of the sources I had said, but I'm not getting my hopes up again as far as him coming to buffalo especially with all of the other job openings around the league.
What established coach that has not stepped outside of his mind would want to coach for Ralph Wilson the architect of the most dissfunctional franchise in the NFL? Wilson has made this franchise what it is today. That is why the fans are always subjected to retread coaches that no one else wants.
Happy New Year everyone! What a nice way to start the year with the Chan firing. I applaud Ralph for not waiting and making a quick decision on this debacle of a Coach. Chan, you are horrible at being a Head Coach. I wish you well and know that you will be fine since you are paid millions and will still be collecting a paycheck next year for doing nothing. Gruden could absolutely come here, he is a tough, gritty blue collar guy and Buffalo would fit his personality. We have plenty of talent on both sides of the ball. Gruden wants to develop his own QB not inherit an established one so he would prefer to draft his own. Also, Our team has sucked for 13 years and the expectations are very low yet again for this team. He can come in and go 8-8 and he will be the greatest thing since the stadium buddy! If he goes 9-7 we name a street after him. Should he go 10-6 and make the playoffs we will erect a statue in his likeness. Plus he gets us as fans. Sounds like a good gig to me.
he had the ribs
Get this done OBD!!!
Time to find a GM that knows how to scout recruits and build through the draft. Bills are failing at this aspect. Finally, as in all my replies here is what i believe in. You win by #1 having a top notched QB; #2 having a great LT (OFFENSIVE LINE is critical- just ask the BEARS, JETS, CARDINALS, etc.), and #3 getting a top notched COACH.
Till then Bills fans are subject to losing years!
Russ Brandon himself heard of this rumor about his purported meeting with Jon Gruden at this Tempo restaurant and today he unequivocally and specifically denied it. He said he hadn't met with anyone yet and also chuckled a bit when he was talking about it. It was during his interview on WGR which immediately followed the presser today.
A Bills fan and lifelong New England native who has been to Buffalo only once!
Later in the day, Howard Simon got on and said he has sources who have confirmed Gruden was in fact in town, but speculation was it was re: his brother jay.
"I know if I can snag one or two off him, you know take some to the touchdown... take one to the crib, we'll be alright. We'll be alright."
-Nickell Robey
THEN today... Russ got on and said none of it was true. I tend to believe Brandon, but just for conspiracy theory sake; why would Brandon admit to meeting with a potential candidate BEFORE Chan was let go?
I don't think he would.
That being said, I would bet Gruden was never in town
"I know if I can snag one or two off him, you know take some to the touchdown... take one to the crib, we'll be alright. We'll be alright."
-Nickell Robey

Plenty Going On (And Not Just Basketball)
The Royals have done their part to stay in the news on the true opening day of the NCAA Tournament (Michigan State, by the way, ended up winning my bracket – because I know that was what you all were waiting for). Let's just round up some of the goings on.
Yesterday I said not to panic and even today, we probably should not. A torn meniscus is the cause for knee surgery for the Royals' catcher of the present and future. We have heard no firm timetable, but the absolute best case is four weeks and the worst case seems to be somewhere along the lines of eight weeks. Add at least a week of rehab appearances, maybe two if Perez ends up taking closer to eight to get healthy and Kansas City is realistically looking at an early May return for Salvador.
Assuming my made up logic is anywhere close, I don't think the Royals need to jump through any hoops to find a catcher to handle the bulk of the playing time. Brayan Pena is sub-par behind the plate and Max Ramirez is something worse than that, but both have played in the majors and both can hit a little. I would advocate laboring through the 23 games in April with those two as the catching tandem and hope Perez returns when the Yankees and Red Sox come to Kansas City in early May.
Now, if a veteran dropped in the Royals' lap and was willing to play everyday for a month or so and then sit the bench the better part of the year for a million bucks (yeah, that's right, Ivan Rodriguez is exactly who I am talking about) that would be great. I think it is unlikely and certainly do not believe Dayton Moore should be trying to trade for such a player, but it does not hurt to keep an ear to the ground.
On a long-term note, this is not a bad knee injury and while anything regarding 'knees' and 'catchers' gets one nervous, Salvador has youth on his side. Until something begins to tell us otherwise, I think the Royals can assume Perez will come back ready to assume the heavy workload they had planned for him when he signed the contract extension this spring.
By now you have all heard that shortstop Alcides Escobar has inked a four year contract extension that will pay him a cool million in 2012 and then three million per year each of the next three seasons. The Royals also hold team options for 2016 ($5.25 million) and 2017 ($6.5 million) with a $500,000 buyout.
Now, if Escobar never hits, but continues to be an elite fielder, this guaranteed four years of this deal probably average out at about market rate. However, if the shortstop Jesus does hit some or, let's dream a little, hits decently, then this is a great deal for the Royals. The downside is that Escobar's bat gets even worse and his defense goes with it (see Berroa, Angel), but Kansas City has to take some leaps of faith and fix some costs for the future, while also hopefully securing talent with that fixed cost.
That is what the Escobar, Perez and to some extent Billy Butler's extension of last year does. Nothing about any of those deals is roster wrecking if they don't pan out and maybe, in some small part, the combination of these helps grease the wheels of future, more important and more expensive, contracts.
One possible, albeit longshot contender for the starting rotation was sent to minor league camp yesterday: Mike Montgomery. After his struggles at AAA last year, the demotion of the Royals' number one pitching prospect was no big surprise and certainly a very rational move. The lefty pitches in Kansas City this year, it is just a question of when. I put the over/under at July 5th.
Also going down was Wil Myers, Nathan Adcock and Ryan Verdugo. I bring up the latter two only because they had very, very, very outside shots at making the bullpen. Adcock will almost surely start in Omaha, by the way, and might be number one in line to get a call-up if an injury occurs early in the season. For Myers the only question this spring was where he goes, Omaha or NW Arkansas? Consensus seems to be the south, but I kind of have a hunch that maybe Omaha might be his destination, especially if Jarrod Dyson makes the big league roster.
Neither Aaron Crow or Felipe Paulino did a whole lot to help themselves last night, so the door is open today for Danny Duffy – dominant his first time out – to stake a deeper claim on the two open rotation positions. I am and have been a 'Duffy guy' since he started out striking out just about everyone in Low A ball, so count me squarely in his camp when it comes to this battle.
If the Royals are hell bent on not losing Luis Mendoza (remember, he is out of options) than I really believe the proper move is Duffy and Paulino in the rotation, Mendoza and Crow in the bullpen. Paulino has a nightmarish performance record as a reliever, so I don't see the point of putting him back in that role. If he continues to flounder through spring training and carries that into three or four April starts, then you pull Paulino out of the rotation and go to Mendoza, but I don't think you make that move any sooner than that.

I was sent a 70's decade 4lb box of Old Time Candy. The 4 lb box measures 12 x 9 x 3 inches and is jammed with over 70 of your old time favorites. I was excited to recieve the box and reminise some of the candy. I chose the 70's even tho I was born in the 80's. I was curious to see which candies I remember. The company is also a Cleveland based company.
Old Time Candy Business History:
This adventure began in July, 1999 when we walked into a large candy store in Cleveland, Ohio that specializes in old time candy. We had no idea that many of our old time favorites still existed. It was the candy we ate as kids... Necco Wafers, Candy Buttons on paper tape, Wax Lips, Candy Cigarettes. Amazing!
We went on-line in early 2000 with our first candy assortment and began to grow. In 2003 we moved into a larger facility and expanded at the beginning of 2004. We moved into a much larger facility in August of 2006 where we are located today. 2010 began our 10th year in the candy business. Thanks for helping us be successful. We hope you like what we do and will continue to support us with your purchases and referrals.

"Bought these for a wedding in the red. Wore them with a 50's style dress. I can't even begin to tell you how many compliments I got from people I didn't know. Little old aunties at the wedding stopped me on the way to and from the buffet to tell me how much they liked it.And SO COMFY! I had some ballet slippers in my bag in case I got tired, but I wore them all night, even dancing and jumping, no problem at all. And soooo high. I love being tall!Highly recommend."
