Hope for lung and pancreatic cancer patients - Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act will soon be enacted in the US
Singapore: The US Senate has given its final approval to legislation containing the Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act that gives priority status to lung and pancreatic cancers for the development of a master plan of action that the National Cancer Institute has to send to Congress and make publicly available within 18 months. The US President is expected to sign the bill, the Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, which contains the cancer legislation.
"This is a holiday gift for all the lung cancer advocates around the country who came to Washington in person, or called and emailed their representatives to make lung cancer a priority for federal research," said Ms Laurie Fenton Ambrose, Lung Cancer Alliance President and CEO.
The Senate action concludes the long congressional journey of the Lung Cancer Mortality Reduction Act that started in 2006 with a resolution introduced by then Senators Hillary Clinton, Chuck Hagel and Mike DeWine. The bill now has to be enrolled and officially signed by the President before becoming law.
Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA) is committed to ending injustice and saving lives through an alliance of advocacy, education, and support. LCA provides live, professional support, referral and information services for patients, their loved ones and those at risk for lung cancer; advocates for multiple millions in public health dollars for lung cancer research; and conducts national awareness campaigns.

Thanks much for the kind post, John. No problem on the photo, btw, it's mine (can't remember who I handed my camera to...can't remember lots right now, the pain meds suck, make me feel stupid, something I can ill afford).
Thx for the follow-up, Doug. Very, very nice of you -- really appreciate it. Hoping it won't wreck me, I have insurance, though super high deductible and by the time I'm done with the things they weasel out of paying, we'll see how broke I am. Funny how they don't weasel out of w/d-ing $277 from my bank every single month...for a $2k deductible...last time I used my insurance, 4 yrs ago, I ended up paying at least 5k -- all of my life's savings -- despite an "out of pocket maximum" of 3k. now, I know there was to be no math on this exam, but, uh, so how does that work? I'm far from rich, but at least I can afford insurance, so I'm grateful for that. And grateful to be here, and for so many things.
Take care, Kelly

A HUGE thanks you to everyone who came out tonight. We had a great time despite some technical difficulties (which we hopefully learned from). There was definitely some cash in the margarita fund by the end of the night and hopefully everyone enjoyed themselves and learned something about how badass a resource the Alpine Training Center is. We'll probably do this shindig in the late Summer/early Fall again.
Thank you!!!

|Paging Mr Cordes... how did it go yesterday?
By Kelly Cordes
Feb 20, 2010
Thanks much, everyone. Went well, Kirra, thank you. Had to keep me an extra day (had hoped to get out Thurs), as the nerve block wore off way too fast, after only about 12 hrs (they planned/thought 24-48; apparently it can vary a lot with individual things, metabolism, etc.) which left me in excruciating pain late Wed night. So, they kept me Thurs/Thurs night to get it under control, got out Fri and am ok now, just loopy from the pain meds. Sucks b/c it makes me stupider than normal.
Guess the surg went well. They installed 2 plates and 11 screws, if I remember right. Have another one Wednesday (Feb. 24). Thatll be surg #3; first was in Bzn, minor, to put on the external fixator (aka medieval torture device), that cage-like thing, on my lower leg; itll come off after this final surgery, cant wait! I'm like a freakin' dog with the lampshade over my head, bumping into things and all. This Wed's surg should be the last, at least until another way on down the road, if they need to remove some of the hardware after the bones have healed.
Can't wait to be done with the surgeries, will truly feel like I'm able to focus on recovery, and also be more mentally able to get into a groove with work and things and not be interrupted by hospital stays, etc. woohoooo!
take care,

That's what most of the clubs around me are charging this season.
"Force fetch isn't about retrieving as much as it is conditioning a dog to handle pressure, in a very controlled environment. It's about putting a dog in the position of having to figure out how to turn off pressure by finding the correct response. This translates into numerous areas in training." Sharon Potter.
The average down south for 55/65/75 for AKC, and we charges 50/60/70. AKC is higher since we need more birds and the cost of birds is getting out of hand.
Our delivery charge on birds is 1/3 of our bill
In No. Calif. for an AKC hunt test it's 80-75-75 or 75-75-75. Only one club has Juniors at 70. They will be raising their Junior rate to 75. Expenses to put on a hunt test or trial keep going up in No. Calif. Cost to use grounds is $300 a day. Birds are $12; add to that delivery and stewarding charges if the club doesn't steward its birds. AKC increased its recording fees several years ago. Another recording fee increase goes into effect July 1. Motels have increased their rates. Cost to pay for judges' travel (air fare or fuel for their vehicle) has gone up. Clubs are trying to hold the maximum fee to $80 and it isn't easy.
Just paid $90 in Texas. Honestly, the entry fees are least of expenses involved with campaigning an all age dog. Anyone who has put on a trial should have an appreciation for what it takes to break even or have a small profit as a cushion for the next trial with low entries and no margin.
When I hear people complaining about high entry fees (Pat was asking, not complaining), I want to tell them to get in charge of an event and see how it goes and how much everything costs and adds up and see if they can do any better. It all costs money.

We've been at 65-70 for JH for years in WA.
Damn I'm getting old. I remember when I thought $35 was high.
Bill Davis
I am wondering how many clubs out there have liability insurance, Directors and Officers insurance, and also pay for Workman's Comp? Those three insurance policies come to $2,263.33 for one club for whom I am treasurer. The club holds 2 field trials and a hunt test each year. The club pays annual dues to AKC $25, to the National Amateur Ret Club $100, to the National Retriever Club $100, to the Master National Retriever Club $50, and is a member of the California Retriever Training Association for whom membership is $100. Total dues paid every year is $375. Together insurance and dues come to $2,638.33.
Additional overhead expenses: equipment purchase and repairs. supplies for marshal boxes, postage, and assorted misc. Every this year club spends on the average $3,500.-$3,700. beyond what expenses there are for the club's trials and hunt test. Equipment replacement costs depend on how many radios or other equipment gets lost or broken beyond repair.
This is why clubs have to make a profit on their field trials and hunt tests and also have a raffle to cover those costs.

By Ginna Parsons/NEMS Daily Journal
Nutrition researchers and doctors have been touting the possible health benefits of eating foods popular in Mediterranean cultures for decades.
Now, they have proof.
The first major clinical trial on the Mediterranean diet shows that eating this way can prevent 30 percent of heart attacks, strokes and deaths from heart disease. The results of the University of Barcelona study, published recently in The New England Journal of Medicine, reveal that people at high risk for heart disease because they were overweight, smoked or had diabetes were able to cut their heart attack risk by eating a diet rich in olive oil, nuts, beans, fish, fruits and vegetables. They even got to drink wine with their meals.
"I'm not surprised by the results of the study at all," said Dr. Barry Bertolet, an interventional cardiologist on the medical staff of North Mississippi Medical Center's Heart Institute. "A lot of other smaller studies pointed in this direction. It just makes a lot of sense."
Bertolet was so sure of the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet, in fact, that he and a team of other cardiologists came up with the idea to implement the diet at the hospital, serving it to heart patients at every meal.
"That was in 2009," he said. "When I heard about the study last week, I made a smart comment to my wife, saying, 'I'm glad they finally caught up with Tupelo.'"
The nearly 7,500 study participants were divided into two groups, consuming either the Mediterranean or a low-fat plan. The five-year study actually ended early because it was evident the low-fat group might be at higher risk for heart disease.
The Mediterranean daily diet regime included at least four tablespoons of olive oil, a quarter cup of nuts, a glass of wine, at least three servings of fruit and at least two servings of vegetables. Weekly, they were to eat fish and legumes (peas, beans and lentils) at least three times a week, choose poultry instead of red meats and avoid sugary desserts.
"The meals we serve our patients are a little different," Bertolet said. "Of course, we don't serve wine. We're still using the menu for heart patients and now it's spread to involve diabetics, and a good number of the general medicine patients are using it. It's involving a broader number of people."
Bertolet said what he likes about the Mediterranean style of eating is that it doesn't involve specialty foods – you can just go to the grocery store and make a few good choices.
He suggests yogurt, whole-grain cereal and fruit for breakfast, a nice big salad at lunch and a lean meat or fish for supper with lots of vegetables.
"At the hospital, we do provide meat at one meal each day, but there are other sources of protein where you don't have to have meat every day," he said. "When people design a meal, they start with the meat. We need to move away from meat being our centerpiece."
Bertolet pointed to another study released last week that found an association between eating meat and premature death, this time linking the consumption of bacon, sausage and other processed meats with cardiovascular disease and cancer in a study of nearly a half-million Europeans.
The research, which followed people in 10 European countries in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition over one to two decades, was published Thursday in Biomed Central's open-access journal BMC Medicine.
Sabine Rohrmann of the University of Zurich, who led the study, estimated that 3 percent of premature deaths each year could be prevented if people ate less than 20 grams of processed meat per day. Twenty grams is about 0.7 ounces; a hot dog comes in at 50 to 70 grams or more, depending on the brand, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture website.
"The bottom line is the more processed meat you eat, the shorter your life," Bertolet said. "Our meat and three culture has gotten us into trouble."
McClatchy-Tribune Information Services contributed to this report.

According to recent news stories, Israel believes that Syria is supplying SCUD missiles to Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon. Should Israel bomb Syria to stop them? As the charges and threats from both sides multiply, the story of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701 is worth recalling.
On Aug. 11, 2006, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1701 as part of an effort to end the war then raging in Lebanon between Israeli and Hezbollah forces. The resolution was the product of long negotiations involving primarily the United States, France, and the governments of Israel and Lebanon. The final text made crystal clear--over and over--that supply of weaponry by Syria to Hezbollah was prohibited.

Sanchez strikes again
Sancheeze with another turnover-for-a-touchdown... fantastic
Fitting that Brad Smith lines up in the WC and scores.
Cellar dweller Jests.
I predicted a 4 or 5 win season. Pretty much dead on. The Jests got so lucky to beat us in that first game.
The Jests played like the worst team in football down the stretch. Capping the season in a fury of fist pumps to be BLOWN OUT by the BUFFALO BILLS!
First two drives of the game..... Jests ran 8 straight times, moving the ball on Buffalo's terrible D. Then they passed twice in a row..... 2 complete misses by Sanchez and they settle for a fist pump. Drive 2.... Sanchez throws a pick 6 right to a LB deep in his own territory.
The Jests are one giant buttfumble of an organization.
Well. So much for finishing in front of the Dolphins. Gotta love how we are going forward while the Jets are backing up further into the sewers of New York. I can say, I am pleased with this season.
So what happened to Miami still looking up at the Jets there Junc?
It's all over for you now, nyjunk.
All of your crutches have been taken away. Your armor made of excuses has been shattered.
Your "team" is 110% dog ****. Dog ****, dude, dog ****. No other way to explain it. The Jets ****ing suck something awful.
The nonsense you said about Sparano being less conservative...lol...dude is out of another job. Laughable.
I guess you can tell us all about how the Bills just bent you over...yet you finished ahead of them in the division on some kind or butt****ing ******** technicality that only you care about.
Jets get a higher draft pick. I guess they're the real winners in the eyes of junk.
Best thread of 2012 without question.

In recent years, Cambria has concentrated its vineyard and winemaking resources into amplifying different aspects of the Cambria estate. This effort launched an in-depth exploration of the vineyard and varieties on this cool-climate property. The result has elevated the quality of Cambria's core wines, created new site-focused and distinct winemaking styles, and dramatically highlighted the bold flavors of each variety. Today, the flagship wines, making up 90% of the production, include Katherine's Chardonnay, Julia's Pinot Noir and Tepusquet Syrah. Each wine represents the broad definition of flavor, for that variety, on the estate. View all Cambria Winery Wines
About Central CoastView a map of Central Coast wineries
The largest of California's wine growing regions, the Central Coast produces the majority of California's wine. The district sprawls out, covering most of the vineyard land between San Francisco and Santa Barbara. Smaller sub-AVAs of the Central Coast include Monterey Bay, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria Valley, Santa Cruz Mountains and many others.
Notable FactsGrape varieties range from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Some Central Coast wine is generic, bulk wine that contributes to the high production numbers of the area. But many winemakers and wineries, particular in some of the smaller AVAs, are small production artisans, creating unique and high-quality wine. The great thing about the Central Coast is its diversity - you're able to find a number of grape varieties and styles at a number of different price points.
About California
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Tanner Lectures explore pre-emptive war, Nov. 8-9
Posted November 1, 2006; 10:31 p.m.
Michael Doyle, a leading scholar of international affairs and former
adviser to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, will deliver the annual
Tanner Lectures on Human Values at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday,
Nov. 8-9, in McCosh 50.
Doyle will address "Anticipatory Self-Defense: The Law, Ethics and Politics of Pre-emptive and Preventive War." His first lecture will include a critique of existing standards of pre-emptive and preventive military actions. The second talk will focus on what the standards should be and how they would inform judgments of key events such as the U.S. blockade of Cuba during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, Israel's 1981 attack against Iraq's Osirak nuclear plant and the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq.
Doyle is the Harold Brown Professor of International Affairs, Law and Political Science at Columbia University and a visiting professor at Yale Law School. His books include "Ways of War and Peace," "Empires" and "Making War and Building Peace," a study of U.N. peacekeeping efforts written with Nicholas Sambanis.
Doyle served as a special adviser to Annan from 2001 to 2003, with responsibilities including strategic planning, outreach to the international corporate sector and relations with the U.S. government. He recently was named the secretary-general's representative on the advisory board of the U.N. Democracy Fund.
Doyle served on the Princeton faculty from 1987 to 2003 and is the University's Edwards S. Sanford Professor of Politics and International Affairs Emeritus.
Two scholars will serve as commentators for each of Doyle's lectures: Jeff MacMahan, professor of philosophy at Rutgers University, and Ruth Wedgwood, professor of international law and diplomacy at Johns Hopkins University, for the first; and Harold Hongju Koh, dean of Yale Law School, and Richard Tuck, professor of government at Harvard University, for the second.
The lectures are sponsored by the University Center for Human Values.

I've also been doing a lot of video gaming -- mostly NES games. Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles is coming out in less than a week; when it does, I anticipate not having any free time for about a month.

Illicit Firearms as a Threat to Global Security
Organized crime manifests itself in many forms and activities, ranging from traditional types of criminal organizations, to trans-national criminal networks, with elastic structures and the ability to move quickly, transform and be controlled from multiple locations. The illicit trafficking and misuse of firearms is intrinsically linked to these criminal organizations and networks: as facilitators of violent crimes, as tools to perpetrate power, and as lucrative trafficking commodities, that fuels armed conflicts, crime and insecurity. Oftentimes, different forms of criminality are intertwined, such as human, firearms and drugs trafficking.
No region in the world is exempt from the dramatic consequences of firearms violence. While the death toll in the context of armed conflicts is well known, less evident but even more dramatic, is the fact that more lives are lost worldwide from non-conflict firearm events, than do during ongoing wars. The problems associated with firearms violence covers the whole spectrum of human security: ranging from high levels of individual physical insecurity (domestic violence and street, gang and criminal violence) with serious economic and social consequences for the society at large, to large scale armed conflicts in which these arms enable widespread violence and account for the majority of deaths.
The problems associated with criminality and firearms are of such a complex nature, that curtailing them requires tailored interventions involving corresponding criminal justice responses in terms prevention, investigation and prosecution of crimes.
UNODC Global Firearms Programme was created to assist states in building adequate criminal justice systems to effectively respond to the challenges posed by organized criminality specifically related to trafficking in firearms its parts and components.

There are many challenge sites on the net, and one to unify them all.
I decided to focus on hacker.org as there are many high quality challenges involving programming, cryptography and maths, and a bit less of ugly exploits and similar. The site organizes challenges on a map. Harder challenges are on mountains, easier ones on grass. Each time a challenge is solved, it opens the road to new challenges. Castles protect challenges that are on crossroads. Winning against a fortified castle opens new possibilities and new areas to be discovered.
From easy to hard or the other way round
Sometimes i get stuck solving a harder challenge. At first time, it looks like i am wasting my time, but the point is that if by chance i manage to solve it, several other challenges suddenly get much easier.
This was the case with the Labyrinth challenge, which forced me to develop new techniques for the HVM. In the end, I invested more than one month of time on it. Once Labyrinth was solved, I could solve the similar Deluge and the sequel "Flash Flood warmup" in one day. Other challenges like "King Mouse", "Brokenest Keys" and "Mus Minutoides" finally found a solution through new ugly techniques (mainly calls with no returns and what i call the statistical approach, to spoil them a bit).
To sharpen my weapons further, I put Caesum's Challengers handbook in my journeyer's backpack. And here I found a good explanation of the chi and kappa test, so that I added the index of coincidence to the magic spells I am aware of.
It was a great satisfaction to besiege the castle protected by 'Spiral bits'! The path following algorithm did his job well, but the decoding part was a complete nightmare, so that i turned the Lazarus GUI into a complete editor for inserting, deleting and flipping bits. I also had an integrated lens on board and a tool to compare the decoding on slightly different paths (which did not work very well though). And a good bit of luck was also part of solving it!
I then succesfully attacked 'No full ACK in HEX' and 'No full ACK in DEC', learning Knuth arrow notation, the tower of powers, and in particular learning Python's ability of computing with large numbers, which is unrivalled. Maple couldn't do what Python did. Now I know why some numeric people I worked with were so happy with Python :-)
And still, there is work to do. My armies failed several times against 'Blizzard' and 'Descartes'. The 'Captcha' prototype needs further refinement as well...
(current ranking on hacker.org is 188 with 180 challenges solved/on Khan 200 challenges solved and Copernicus badge reached, next goal is one million points)

Well perhaps you could try using:Serial.println(reading); instead of Serial.print(reading);Lefty
void loop(){ Serial.print(millis()); Serial.print("\t"); Serial.print(analogRead(A0)); Serial.print("\t"); Serial.print(analogRead(A1)); Serial.print("\t"); Serial.print(analogRead(A2)); Serial.print("\n");}
alternative is the use of \nSerial.print("first line\n second line\n");Besides \n the \t (tab is also interesting as it allows to columnize numbers and text in the output (copy to Excel is a breeze;).

There's something about owning a satellite tower that makes a clergyman fixated about the weather.
Pat's been predicting hurricanes ravaging the American coastlines for the past few years. God told him judgment was coming. Dover was going to get a particularly nasty meteorological spanking for it's school board weighing in on the wrong side of the Creation/Evolution Debate.
Focus on the Family's, Stuart Sheppard produced a video clip that wondered aloud if it would be appropriate for Christians to pray that rain would ruin the Democratic National Convention.
Most recently, the Vatican promoted a man to bishop who once stated that Hurricane Katrina was God's judgment on New Orleans:
"The amoral conditions in this town are indescribable," Bishop-designate Gerhard Wagner said in a parish newsletter in 2005, after Hurricane Katrina had devastated New Orleans.
"This is not just any city which has been drowned, but the people's dream town with the 'best brothels and the most beautiful whores,'" he said, according to excerpts from the newsletter which appeared on the Austrian Catholic Web site Kath.net.
The Vatican announced Jan. 31 that Pope Benedict had named the 54-year-old parish priest of Windischgarsten, Austria, to be auxiliary bishop of Linz, Austria.
"Hurricane Katrina didn't just destroy all the nightclubs and brothels in New Orleans ... it also destroyed all five abortion clinics" in a city of less than half a million residents, the bishop-designate said.
"Is the piling up of natural catastrophes merely a consequence of the environmental pollution carried out by people or is it rather the consequence of a spiritual environmental pollution?" he asked, adding that the question should be further discussed in the future.
There's precedent for God using weather to judge. There was that whole "Flood" thing. That was biggish. Sodom and Gomorrah were taken out by fire and brimstone. So, these clergy get some credit for Bible literacy. Talking about "spiritual pollution" is not nonsense. Heck, the Apostle Paul wrote about all creation groaning under the weight of the curse.
But you still have to wonder, where are the predictions (or post mortems) that the weather event would come because of a lack of social justice or care for the poor?
The problem with these wannabe Elijah's is that they are so selective in their application. They've weaponized the Biblical concept of corruption and they use it to berate their opponents. Those sinners over there, they deserve a divine disciplinary tsunami. If they were more like us, well then, that would be different.
Actual spiritual pollution is everywhere. Its the lines and bags under my eyes, my graying hair, and that roll of fat that I can't seem to outrun. The living fill funeral homes to mourn those cut down by corruption. Spiritual pollution takes the form of weeds, rust, and moth-eaten shirts. It rolls off my tongue in the form or bitterness, cynicism, and biting sarcasm. The proliferation of boy bands in the '90s and three High School musicals now might be signs of spiritual pollution.
Spiritual pollution isn't a missile that God menacingly points at the wicked. Its a curse that humanity unwittingly unleashed on itself, all of us.
When Jesus was on earth, a building collapsed and killed the eighteen people were inside. The professionally religious responded to the disaster by assessing blame. "What kind of sin and what kind of sinner could cause this type of calamity?" Its likely that the Pharisees had used the disaster to reinforce the moral pecking order that they established. "Those fools died because they didn't listen to our teaching."
Jesus disrupted this ghoulish line of thinking with these words: "If you don't repent, you will all likewise perish." Jesus wasn't being morbid, or grouchy. He wasn't cracking open a can of brimstone. Instead, Jesus reminded us that spiritual pollution isn't something that happens to "them" but is something that hurts all of "us."
Jesus knew that he could only rescue people who realized that they weren't living in Eden but in a field with moths and weeds.

ATL will face whomever comes away with the second wild card (St. Louis I'm looking in your direction), Cincy will have to keep playing hard to get the #1 seed.
Cincinatti will go all the way, I'd predict.
Yesterday the Dodgers slaughtered my Padres. I had to get out of my seat and walk around the stadium.
I just couldn't take it any more.
Heading back to the game today in about 3 hours.
I hope it won't hurt as bad tonight. (We beat the Dodgers Tuesday, so the series is still up for grabs but we should not pitch left-handers against L.A.)
Then I see the 3 final games of our year Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (versus the western champion Giants).
I did not renew season tickets for next year, but I'll be paying for a lot of single games I'm sure. The stadium's very close, tickets (for single games in my section) are $27.50 per game and we have the Yankees coming to San Diego for interleague next year. I've wanted revenge for 1998's World Series ever since 1998.
I know it's not the same teams, but the concept is attractive to me.
BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
Well, if you're gonna lose, lose to history. Pirates' first time no-hit since Bob Gibson laced 'em up. Now they just need to go 5-0 to wrap up this homestand/season. Arr!
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Tigers are back in first. Two games up thanks to Chicago being on a 2-9 spell.
Nowhere in your incoherent ramblings did you come anywhere close to the answer. Thanks to you, everyone in this room is now stupider having heard you. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul. -Billy Madison-
Twenty straight years. Twenty losing years in a row. Twenty consecutive years with a record under .500. If it happens next year, too, it will be old enough legally to drink itself in misery. And to top it off, a blown save by a pretty-reliable closer to end with the dreaded 4-3 score. I am sad.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I saw our last home game yesterday (San Diego Padres).
The Giants started up 2-0.
Chase Headley hit a 2-run homer, and Jesus Guzman followed (immediately afterward!) with a single run homer.
Padres up 3-2.
Then Edison Volquez tires. Our weak bullpen (remember 2010 when "the Penitentiary" led by Heath Bell and Master Yoda was the best in MLB???)
So our weak rookiees get out there.
Giants up 5 -3. (F-Pablo Sandoval and all the Panda Bears crashing the party at my stadium. Pandas are not cute little animals to baseball fans.)
Then the Padres catch up again. Thank you Logan Forsythe (2nd base - first full season). It's 5-5 and it looks like we're heading into extra innings.
Closer Huston Street is called out to manage a hold situation. He gets 2 outs with nobody on base.
Then 2 homeruns fly out of the park. Thank you for comforting the enemy, Huston. Really?
I had breakfast with the team and hung out with our catcher John Baker (haven't uploaded the pictures yet). Went to a pre-game party with free drinks hosted by the President of our team who's become a personal friend of mine over the past 4 years, which is why I feel kind of "in" with the Padres. I met 4 really cool fan girls, 2 of which were super-hot, and me and my Dodger buddy (yeah I have friends from other teams - even that one) hung out and partied with the girls. And our season ticket section had a great end-of-year party.
But what I remember most is Huston giving up those runs and my team leaving our home park on a loss.
We finish away in Milwaukee, but the Brewers are on a hot streak and it doesn't look good.
I have to forgive Huston Street though. At a special event at the start of this season, he coached me pitching in their bullpen and I got a nice video of it and he didn't even really know me (our players of a few years like catcher Nick Hundley and Chase Headley know me by face and name - but this was Huston's first real day with everyone in the park and he was really cool to play pitching coach to me in the pen - because Nick has traditionally been calling out to me over there when he prepares to warm up our starters before games).
Overall, I have to say that the San Diego Padres and their willingness to interact with fans and do stuff in their community goes far beyond what I've ever head of for any major league team.
Nick and his wife pay for bus loads of kids to get all their school supplies each fall at my Target I toy hunt at. He's over there when I am looking for Star Wars and Transformers and he asks if I find anything (I beat everyone into my store).
So for that kind of experience, where you get to know premier players like Chase Headley (he is very good friends with David Eckstein, by ball-player kidney transplant buddy and husband of Clone Wars Ashley Eckstein), I will always stick with my Padres.
I really wish for 2013 to go the way 2010 did, when the Padres were No.1! Only thing is, we can't let San Francisco, nor L.A. or Arizona take it from us. And I'm serious about respecting the Rockies. I forsee their ascension happening one day.
Meanwhile, my Padres, in a complete reversal of 2010, need pitching! You can't hit 'em out of Petco Park that easily.
But our rising bats have been debating that!
BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
Sorry about your Pirates Bel I was pulling for them!
Crazy to think there's still a lot to be settled on the final day of the regular season. Yankees had a great walkoff win last night that will hopefully propel them to home field advantage throughout the playoffs until the World Series...The A's are on a tear, want to avoid them at all costs...reminds me of the Moneyball team.
You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Well, my pick updates:
Orioles and Yankees = Orioles
Tigers and A's = A's
These are the "feel good choices for the underdogs" whereas if baseball is scripted, this is the AL's story.
Out of this might come the Orioles. They've been commanding it longer than the A's and they might be just a little bit better going for it. It'd be nice to see either team make it, but these guys are no match for the National League.
In the meanwhile, I have several friends on this board who are Tigers fans and I have no ill wishes for them. I'd be quite happy for any of the AL teams except New York.
Cards and Naitonals = Nationals
Giants and Reds = Reds
Out of this come the Reds - going all the way. I still think Cincinatti will capture the World Series ring. We'll see if I need to re-evaluate. But some of my ex-Padres like Latos and Ludwick play for Cincinatti, and Hairston is over there, too. I'd like to see them get this.
Anyway, here's a pick of me and our catcher John Baker at the Padres' bullpen on the very last day of this season.

Perhaps the dog figure (Steeljaw) could be posed eating a scaled human figure that resembles Michael Bay?
I heard about Leadfoot's problems from my scalper-friend since he's also a collector and opens his personal toys. He said the same thing about the chest, JT - good review though. So thanks.
I am still going to pursue 2 of these figures however. I like the Wreckers and I think the cars with numbers on them remind me of the G1 days with Smokescreen, Jazz, Wheeljack (?), and others who had racing numbers on them. That's probably why I like them - and I've occasionally been to some NASCAR races. There's some exhilleration to it that I can identify with.
So I'm looking to get all 3 Wreckers in all reasonable sizes:
Cyberverse - just needs Roadbuster (confirmed for release soon)
Deluxe - Leadfoot confirmed - in some Target exclusive 2-pack with Twin-Twist (EU) I think
Human Alliance - Target Exclusive Leadfoot, Top Spin's status here unknown (but I'd want him for sure)
Hopefully, if Hasbro makes a HA TopSpin, it will warrant a better review.
BTW, I've seen my scalper-friend's Leadfoot and I think they way the designers tried to put the front wheels together in the robot's chest, sort of like how the Batpod transforms, is actually a pretty decent attempt at something new and creative. That they attempted something other than the routine transformation can still be commended.

Jerome L. Kaufman
Jerome (Jerry) Kaufman, our most beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, mentor, friend, and colleague died peacefully at his home in Madison, Wisconsin, surrounded by his family, after a long, heroic struggle with cancer. Jerry was born in 1933, in Middletown, Connecticut and grew up in Corona, Queens, in New York City, the son of immigrant parents from Eastern Europe. He graduated from Queens College while living at home and later studied with the great urban planner Lewis Mumford at the University of Pennsylvania. He chose to became an urban planner himself and his pioneering work on racial segregation, urban poverty, and urban agriculture has helped to make the world a better place. From 1971 until his retirement in 2001, Jerry was a beloved professor at the Department of Urban and Regional Planning at UW-Madison, where generations of students were inspired by his protean interests in ethics, racial inequality, poverty, central cities, urban education, and food systems. In that last phase of his professional career, he proved instrumental in helping develop and shepherd the Troy Gardens community gardens project in Madison. From 2000 until weeks before his death, Jerry served as president of Growing Power, a Milwaukee-based grassroots organization led by the visionary urban farmer Will Allen, a group created to help people grow and eat healthy food in impoverished areas of Milwaukee, Chicago, and other American cities. Other passion throughout his life include a love of music, especially playing recorder; singing with the Madison Yiddish Choir; and listening to (and singling with) the arias of the Swedish tenor Jussi Bjorling. He gained great sustenance and friendship through his participation in the Shaarei Shamayin Reconstructionist Synagogue.
Jerry is predeceased by his father, Louis Kaufman, his mother Norma Grant (Grantzitzy) Kaufman Gofberg, and his brother, Arnold Kaufman, who greatly influenced his interest in the civil rights movement and the pursuit of social and economic justice. He is survived by his life partner of 53 years, Judith Zukerman Kaufman; his two children Ariel, of Madison, and Daniel, of Brooklyn, NY; their spouses Michael Kissick and Juliette Mapp; his beloved grandsons Benjamin and Luca; and his sisters Elyse Zukerman and Betty Kaufman.
A friend remarked, as Jerry lay dying, that his eyes always radiated humanity and kindness. Even when terribly ill, those eyes still burned brightly revealing his gentle spirit, wisdom, and compassion for all people. He lives on inside all those who knew and loved him. Rest in peace, our sweet man ...we love you so.
The funeral service will be held at Monona Terrace on Monday, January 14 at 11 am. In lieu of flowers, you may make a donation to the Growing Power Vertical Farm¬-a project close to Jerry's heart, which will be named in his honor. Contributions may be made through the Growing Power website, www.growingpower.org or by mailing a check to Growing Power, 5500 West Silver Spring Dr., Milwaukee, WI 53218, with "Vertical Farm" written on the memo line.

Intel expects its next-generation microprocessors to go on sale eight to 10 weeks later than initially planned, according to Sean Maloney, executive vice-president of Intel and chairman of Intel China.
In his first interview to discuss Intel's business in China, Mr Maloney told the Financial Times that the start of sales of machines equipped with Ivy Bridge – the 22nm processor set to succeed Sandy Bridge in notebooks this year – had been pushed back from April. "I think maybe it's June now," he said.
Mr Maloney said the adjustment was not caused by a lack of demand but came because of the new manufacturing process needed to make the smaller chips.
An Intel spokesperson said the company's plans to start shipping Ivy Bridge in the second quarter had not changed.
Mr Maloney also said the global launch of a series of Intel-powered smartphones would follow the launch in China of the first such handset – a Lenovo phone – in April. He said the Intel-powered Lenovo phone would become available in other countries four to five months after its China launch.
The comments come after Lenovo said last month it intended to push sales of its smartphones in emerging markets outside China this year. Lenovo is China's largest leading Android phone brand.
Mr Maloney had been viewed as the most likely candidate to succeed Paul Otellini when he steps down as chief executive in 2015, but this career prospect is now less clear after he suffered a stroke in early 2010. Mr Maloney took over as Intel China chairman in July last year, a newly-created position through which the company hopes to give the Chinese market more weight.
China is expected to surpass the US as the world's largest PC market by unit shipments this year, according to IDC, and the country is already the world's largest market for mobile phones by unit shipments, a segment which Intel is currently pushing into with its Medfield processor for smartphones and tablets.
"I think give it two or three years, and all phones in China will be smartphones, because the cost is going to be way way down," he said.
He also emphasised the Chinese server market as a source of strong growth. "First off, it's not really an emerging market. It's emerged. Secondly, it's just the same at the server side. Ali Baba, Baidu, they all want the same servers as Facebook, and really the notebooks are as advanced as anywhere," he said.

Casting Competition
Today, Saturday, is the big one at the Ennis Fly Fishing Festival (fundraiser for the Madison River Foundation, not a commercial venture) and, among the many activities of the day, we're having a casting competition - distance and accuracy. Known ringers in the pro division will include Paul Arden, Bruce Richards and Brian O'Keefe, but they'll be up against a number of long guns from all over the states and the Yellowstone area's best. I'll try to get the results posted Monday on our web site ennisflyfishing.com.

thanks for the reply.
I'll try out your tips, do you have a long haul on your final forward cast?
|paul brown
Hi John
thanks for the reply.
Sounds like you enjoy your visit when you captained the US team.
thanks for the tips I'll definately try them out.
|paul brown
Sorry i've not replied sooner (I've been on holiday)
the Brenig is still a great place to fish, i had some great sport on the last visit in yacht club bay. As you say Foxon's tackle shop is still going strong. looking forward to getting out on a boat at the Brenig tomorrow!
Tight lines
I fished Llyn Brenig when I Captianed the American Team at the youth world championships back in 98. that is an impressive fishery. You are lucky guy to be fishing there. If you are bank fishing I can also understand your interest in shooting heads.
First of all if you are in a casting club that is your best shot. If you're already topping the 50 meter mark that would insure your position as one of the top American casters. I compete here in the states quite often. However, my greatest experience is with a 5 weight in competition. I did fairly well in competition this year.
As you know shooting heads are more of a function of a smooth slow back cast and getting your overhang to match your distance for turn over. The best tip I can give you is to delay turning over your hand. It really helps load the rod like crazy. It took my 5 weight distance to a new level. Another tip is to step forward into your final delivery. If you're over 50 meters I'm sure you are already doing both of those. I'll be glad to pass along anything I know.

A question for Paul Brown
Hi Paul, this post is off topic but when i saw you list Llyn Brenig as your location i have a question for you. How is the Brenig fishing these days ?, I was still living in North Wales when it was built and i got to fish it quite often in its early days. I must admit seeing the name again brought back some good memorys of my early days fishing in Wales. I used to fish it and the local rivers with Arthur Foxon from St Asaph, I know he still has his tackle shop there. Tight lines,brian
That's impressive for single handed distance!
Yes, I usually stop at full arm extension but with a quick/abrupt bottom hand pull and the rod tip at a high angle.
I enjoy instructing people on practical casting for effective fishing but the tournament stuff is on a different level. I am just starting to incover some of the little nuances that these tournament casters use, fascinating stuff and very helpful for practical applications.

Hi Juro
the rods I am using are single handed trout distance rods between 9'-9 1/2' in length.
A lot of the guys in the club are using the Loomis blanks that are available from the American Casting Association. Once I get better with the single handed I'll hopefully start concentrating more on the double-handed. You mentioned you start your long stroke as a pull accelerating to a push before the final power stroke, do you stop at full arm extension?
Speak to you soon
My interpretation may differ from Mr.Nodera and the Rajeffs among others who employ it, but here goes:
The vee grip does not rely on the meat of the thumb to flex the rod as with the standard thumbs up grip, but instead uses the crotch of the hand between the thumb and index finger at the base to cradle the rod.
The back of the hand is turned to face you and the palm does the pushing on the rod.
My preference is for the index finger to open and point upward a little, letting the middle & ring fingers become the operative fingers for gripping the cork in conjunction with the thumb.
Therefore the rod handle contacts the index finger, the palm at the base of the index finger, across the hollow middle of the palm and nestles in the cleavage at the heel of the palm between the meat of the thumb muscle and the karate chop muscle.
The rod has a huge area of contact as a result. The hollow in the middle of the palm is in-line with the wrapping of fingers and thumb, just about everything else is touching cork.
The forward cast begins with a pulling motion from the backcast but soon becomes a push about mid-way. At that point the veegrip with the palm facing away puts a huge bend in the bottom of the rod which is the potential for the upcoming power snap to release the beast into the line.
I can push much more potential energy into the blank with a vee grip, particularly when spey casting. It does however seem natural and advantageous for overhead casting the Atlantis as well, and you may find this to be the case as well.
When you try it, give it some time. The hand will naturally seek it's comfort zone and if it's like my hand it really feels comfortable in that position.
I also noticed that when I go cast my trout single hander for practice after about 100 casts my hand naturally seeks to swivel palm forward to reduce the strain on the base of the thumb.
Another observation is that when backhand casting in a crosswind the hand settles on a knuckle forward position but with the same contact points on the hand-cork. In effect this is 180 degrees from the strong side vee grip, a reverse vee grip.
I will show you at Boneclave if interested.
Can you describe the vee grip? How is that different from a standard grip?
Thanks for the reply.
How long are the rods you are throwing those lines on? Single or double hand rods?
Sounds interesting.

Hi Juro
Thanks for the reply.
I am what I call an 'intermediate' student of tournament casting (and a member of the British fly casting club), but I am slowly getting really hooked on the subject. Unfortunately I don't know of any books or videos that deal with this subject in real detail.
I like you, am talking about specialist rods and lines (heavy shooting heads 35grm 40-42 feet in length and custom built rods).
I've definately felt the benefit in my day-to-day fishing casts as normal casting with a 6 weight seems to now be in slow motion compared to the reaction time needed to control specialist tackle.
I'm at last getting some semi decent results averaging around the 150 feet mark and a personal best of 53yds 1ft (helped by a lucky gust!!!).
We've got some great casters over here in the club (Sam Davis, Mike Marshall and Carl Hutchinson to name a few) who all hit tremendous distances on a regular basis.
As regards grip I am still experimenting with thumb on top versus vee grip.
There never seems to be enough hours in the working week to practice as much as I would like, but I suppose that's true for all of us.
Give me a shout back if you've got any tips I can try out.
Cheers from England
Paul -
I am more of a fishing cast kinda guy but am very interested having seen Steve belt out ridiculous casts at Golden Gate this spring with a tournament rod. This was a distance casting two-hander which he cast for what looked like 250 ft from my angle and distance, maybe more.
By 'tournament casting' I am referring to distance casting with accuracy using extreme rods and technique, not putting a 3wt into a hula hoop. That's interesting and equally worthwhile but not what I meant, just to be clear.
Are you a student of tournament distance casting techniques? If so I am very interesting in talking about this topic. I am sure there is much to be learned to apply to my fishing casts' benefit.
For instance I have already gained a lot by adopting a vee grip, working on extending my stroke, tuning my accleration, etc. I do not cast vertical angle for fishing but understand how the top-pointed loop holds altitude when thrown vertically and is easier to aim.
What books are available on tournament casting that you would recommend? Videos?

Tournament casting
Hi any of you guys into distance tournament casting with shooting heads (Rajeff, Korich and Gillibert style)?
If so any pointers on technique/ swapping of info would be most welcome.
Hope to hear from you soon (and hi from sunny old England)

I Am A Mother.
As I was reading through NOM blog today, I came across these two posts by women on opposite ends of the marriage debate. Their heartfelt takes on marriage and what it means really impressed me. In particular, they are both powerful, emotional statements, yet worlds apart in focus:
"I am a citizen, who desires nothing more than any other citizen. I want children for the exact same reasons any heterosexual does. I want to be married for the exact same reasons any heterosexual does.
I can't change who I am, or who I fall in love with any more than you can, and I should just accept I'll never have the same thing as my sister or brother, who are heterosexual?
And because of people like you, my partner and I will probably have a harder time raising our son than you would your children.
The only reason a child would think any less of his or her family would be because people like you do.
Good night, and I really hope none of your children are gay. If they are, make sure and tell them early on why they shouldn't ever be able to marry. It'll be easier on them in the long-run." —Marci
When I dated, I chose who I made relationships with. I chose who I would live my life with. No one took those choices from me. Because of my choices, my children will have a mom and a dad, and I will work every day to make sure it stays that way because my children need a mom and a dad. I would never deny a child what they are entitled to simply because of my own selfish wants and desires. Children have rights too, rights that can't be denied simply because they don't fit a certain parent's sexual desires. I am prepared to teach my children by example what a family is, and You can bet I will make sure that they know, if they are not prepared to give a child the things they need in life, they ought not be bringing those children into the world. I am a mom, and because I'm a mom, the needs of my children surpass my petty wants. That is a sacrifice I'm willing to make a thousand times over, and one we should comit to as a society. Every child needs a mom and a dad. Death and divorce aside, we should do everything we can to give them the best chance possible to have that in their lives." —Sandee
I thought the response to Marci's letter was singularly powerful. One letter focused on the writer, what the writer wanted, what the writer felt, and children were an accessory to that. The other writer's focus is on her family, her children and what makes a family.
Two mothers. Two world views.
The first takes no responsibility, the second is the embodiment of responsibility.
It was a poignant example of the very basis of disagreement in the marriage debate, excellently articulated by two of society's mothers.

APGAR is a quick test performed on a baby at 1 and 5 minutes after birth. The 1-minute score determines how well the baby tolerated the birthing process. The 5-minute score tells the doctor how well the baby is doing outside the mother's womb.
The test may rarely be done 10 minutes after birth.
Newborn scoring
The APGAR test is done by a doctor, midwife, or nurse. The health care provider will examine the baby's:
Each category is scored with 0, 1, or 2, depending on the observed condition.
This test is done to determine whether a newborn needs help breathing or is having heart trouble.
The APGAR rating is based on a total score of 1 to 10. The higher the score, the better the baby is doing after birth.
A score of 7, 8, or 9 is normal and is a sign that the newborn is in good health. A score of 10 is very unusual, since almost all newborns lose 1 point for blue hands and feet, which is normal for after birth.
Any score lower than 7 is a sign that the baby needs medical attention. The lower the score, the more help the baby needs to adjusting outside the mother's womb.
Most of the time a low Apgar score is caused by:
If your child has a low Apgar score, he or she may receive:
Most of the time, a low score at 1 minute is near-normal by 5 minutes.
A lower Apgar score does not mean a child will have serious or long-term health problem. The Apgar score is not designed to predict the future health of the child.
