Last Modified: June 29, 2003
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I have recently finished treatment for male breast cancer, including a mastectomy with removal of some lymph nodes and 6 months of chemo with A/C and Taxol. Now, 2 months after very difficult treatment I am experiencing easy bruising all over my body, joint pain and swelling, and loss of strength in the hand of the effected side of my body. Is there a relationship between these symptoms and the chemo regime, and will it improve? As a Toolmaker I work with my hands for a living and am currently incapacitated by this new development. . Is there anything I can do or a course to pursue to alleviate the pain and/or reverse this new problem?
Kevin R. Fox, MD, Assistant Director, Clinical Affairs and Associate Professor of Hematology/Oncology at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Some patients that receive cancer treatment may have a variety of complaints even after the full treatment course is completed. The symptoms you are complaining about are common and are most likely related to the Taxol chemotherapy. It can sometimes take months for these symptoms to improve and resolve. In my experience, it will almost certainly get better. You should discuss these complaints directly with your physician to make sure that there are not any other potential causes of these symptoms related to your individual situation.
Learning as much as you can about your cancer diagnosis gives you the tools you need to make treatment decisions. Read more.

The logo in not catchy and also the top most navigation links looks misaligned from the rest of the page border. Also the paragraph text size is a bit large.
I'm starting a new social bookmarking website: http://www.wickedmarks.com/
Please check the site and let me know your feedback and opinions
The logo in not catchy and also the top most navigation links looks misaligned from the rest of the page border. Also the paragraph text size is a bit large.
Your logo looks weird as the logo background has an other color as the header background.
Also the top menu (above the logo) is hanging to much to the left.
The rest looks fine to me.
Free Web Proxy: WP Like!
Not bad but really need a new logo as mentioned and maybe center your top bar.
Hi ,
As the above two members have said the Logo is a Big No...
There is nothing to comment on the theme as it is common on most of Pligg sites...
I would say optimize your Google Ads better as thats the only way you can make some revenue out of these type of sites..
site is ok but I did like the page redirection ads
might have to change your colors on the site.
too bright on the eyes.
and my you got a number of ads there too.
I'm ok with the colors. Highest value change would be to the Nav bar/search. They need to be aligned with something (either below or above the black header line - probably above). This may mean having far fewer link ads (maybe make them a lot smaller and right align them) or by eliminating the topic links on the very top.
Great site, your traffic is looking good too, I wish you the best of luck.
I joined too and posted.

Guilt-Free Self-Care by Shelly Radic, Author of Momology
Pulling into the gas station, I started the pump, merrily grabbing squeegee and paper towels, singing as I washed the front windshield. The young station attendant appeared and commented on my cheery demeanor. Delighted to speak to another adult, I told him I was out by myself for an evening at the grocery store. From the clueless look on his face it was clear that he'd never spent a week with three sick preschoolers! Then IT hit. Guilt! How could I be so happy about being away from my girls? What kind of mom likes going to the grocery store better than reading bedtime stories? Then, IT number two crept into my brain. Disgust! What kind of woman sings merrily because she gets a night out to squeegee her windshield and do the grocery shopping? Answer to both — did I mention a solid week spent with three sick preschoolers? What is it with moms and guilt? We pour ourselves out caring for our families and then feel guilty about an evening, an hour, even 15 minutes caring for ourselves. Sometimes we let ourselves become so depleted that we're disgusted with the woman looking back from the mirror when we brush our teeth. The truth is moms who practice self-care are more likely to raise healthy, resilient children. Self-care not only allows moms to deal with their children in a more positive, proactive manner, it models a healthy approach to life. (Momology, p. 51) Self-care includes taking care of ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Every mom's self-care looks a little different; it might include journaling, learning Spanish, taking a spiritual retreat and, yes, even playing once in a while. Two challenges to practicing self-care are motivation and lack of child care. That's where moms can help each other, trading childcare for gym visits or taking a college course, organizing a mom's night out or a book club. Joining another mom, or group of moms, for self-care activities provides encouragement and accountability. So, before you confound the gas station attendant, take some time to take care of yourself. Self-care is part of being a better mom who makes a better world.

yes they are!! with everyone spoiling each other's season (and national championship hopes) in the Big 10, it's only fitting that MSU takes its turn doing the same. GO SPARTY!!
Bad day for Michigan teams And it's about to get worse. MSU hoops down 21 to Hawaii with about 2 minutes to go.
Although I am a Buckeye thru and thru, I can't wait to see the how the Spartans do this year. They are my adopted second favorite team now that they hired ex-OSU coach Dantonio. I really think they are heading in the right direction. I think they will learn how to play good, sound, fundamental football under Dantonio. I am going to follow them more closely this year and will be rooting for them to knock off that other team in the state. I do think the grass is getting a little greener as we speak!
That's funny you should ask that cause I almost also typed that I would NEVER be happy if he had gone to UM, but I was in a hurry, so I didn't. That's probably why I am getting excited for the Spartans because it is the antiUM. My favorite teams are OSU and anyone else playing UM. When the Big Ten schools are in bowl games, I root for all of them except for UM.
Top Eight Reasons Why State Sucks 8. Only prerequisite for school admission is kindergarten 7. The quarteback drinks, smokes, and snorts his way into the starting lineup 6. Haven't seen a Big Ten title since Ronald Reagan was president 5. Birds fly upside down over E. Lansing because it ain't worth a crap 4. Football players have a drug problem, they get drug up and down the field 3. Between state and Cheerios, only one belongs in a bowl 2. OJ hid out there since it was the last place you would expect to find a Heisman Trophy winner 1. One second left on the clock my butt
I agree with ggazoo. Northwestern should be the one to go. Even though I greatly dislike UM (don't hate the people though-some people take this stuff way too seriously), I love playing them and am glad we have such a great rivalry. Especially now since they are the ones with Cooper.
I shouldn't post this because I know the U of M guys will sabotage the vote, but here goes. Go Sparty! Most Dominant College Mascot on Earth: Spartans vs. Cowboys - CBS SportsLine.com
At the half scores MSU 45 UAB 3 Appalachaian St. 28 U of M 17 Life is good. (I fully expect the wolverines to come back, but it's funny anyhow). Of course, the guys I work with are BSU nuts, but there is a guy who is a U of M freak who flew in for the game. This Tuesday could be fun!
As I write, UM is down 31-26 and just gave up the ball. I'm not sure what's more amazing: The fact that UM has given up 31 points to a team in Division I AA or that UM's AD hasn't realized what a poor coach Lloyd Carr is. Oh sure, Lloyd has his supporters. People will talk about his great overall winning percentage and how UM goes to a bowl game every season (and loses). Hopefully, this embarrassing game (win or lose) will be enough to sound the alarm in the AD office at UM. Lloyd stinks. His teams consistently underachieve. It's sad to think how much UM could have accomplished over the years with a different coach.
I left to go watch my kids soccer game at the half with the score tied. I held my breath while checking the score. Whew. Good to see they won. Looks like they blew a lot of opportunities. Bowling Green is a decent team but a team we should beat. Glad we didn't blow it. I wasn't looking forward to hearing the Blue fans laugh at us after last week. Plus at work college football is a big thing (BSU is all they have), so I gotta defend the Green's honor.
Michigan fan. But I don't activily root against State. Most Michigan fans don't so thats where we differ.
Max...I do believe I wrote that post you just responded to LAST year. You are as slow at responding as Carr is. My oh my the Meechigan people are looking to lash out at anyone these days, I see. At least they are getting SLAUGHTERED by a GOOD team THIS week.
I really like to Root for MSU. Loved their team in 1984 when they won the Big Ten. Here's hoping they have a good season for their new coach.

The American Future Fund, a conservative group opposed to the nomination of Chuck Hagel as defense secretary, is opening up a new front in its effort against him with a national television campaign painting him as ethically challenged.
The ad for the most part cobbles together flare-ups from Mr. Hagel's tenure in the Senate to argue that he is not qualified to head the Defense Department, and its producers hope to draw attention to the issue of his ethics in his coming confirmation hearings.
In the commercial, which is to run on CNN and Fox News Channel this week, an announcer asserts that "while serving in the Senate, Chuck Hagel declined to publicly disclose millions in 'underlying assets.' '' The spot is referring to an issue investigated by The Hill newspaper regarding whether Mr. Hagel appropriately listed the assets of a group he had a financial stake in, McCarthy Group Inc. But Mr. Hagel was not accused of any wrongdoing by the Senate ethics committee.
The ad goes on to say Mr. Hagel "accepted gold-plated trips from lobbyists – and campaign cash from banking interests he was supposed to be regulating." It is making reference to flights Mr. Hagel took on the corporate jet of Novartis along with four other Republican lawmakers cited in a 2003 USA Today article, and to accommodations the American Bankers Association provided him and his wife in Orlando, Fla., when he was a featured speaker for the group, according to a 1999 Associated Press report.
The ad notes that Mr. Hagel sits on the board of Chevron, which has received numerous Pentagon contracts, and that he "even sits on the board of a private equity firm with investments in Iran.'' The spot appears to be referring to his board appointment to Deutsche Bank's Americas advisory board. The New York Times reported in August that federal and state prosecutors were investigating whether Deutsche Bank and other financial institutions "funneled billions of dollars through their American branches for Iran, Sudan and other sanctioned nations." The bank said it had not done business with Iran since before a sanctions loophole closed in 2008 that made such activity legal under certain conditions.
In a statement, a White House spokesman, Eric Schultz said, "Chuck Hagel has served this nation with honor, in Vietnam as an enlisted Army officer and in the United States Senate. Any suggestion otherwise as part of an ad campaign during a Senate confirmation process is disappointing and not reflective of his lifetime of service."
Addressing sanctions and Iran, the statement continued, "Senator Hagel has made it clear that he fully supports President Obama's commitment to preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Hagel strongly supports the unprecedented sanctions the international community has imposed on Iran under the leadership of the Obama administration – the toughest sanctions ever put on the regime. And he recently called on the United States to continue increasing the sanctions on Iran to keep upping the pressure on the regime."
American Future Fund strategists said they were spending $500,000 to place the spot on CNN and Fox.

Paul McCartney's Up and Coming Tour Gets Back to South America - First Live Shows of 2011 Announced
Paul's headline making visit to South America last year resulted in Macca-mania as makeshift 'McCartney villages' were built by fans in Brazil and Argentina, camping outside stadiums waiting days for the doors to open to get themselves the best possible position at the front of the crowd. Paul's Up and Coming Tour played to over a quarter of a million people in just five shows last November, creating an even larger appetite for the McCartney live experience. Earlier in the year Paul smashed box office records in Mexico for the fastest ever selling live show in Mexico City.
Now, following weeks of feverish speculation, Paul today announces that his record breaking Up and Coming Tour will be returning to South America in May for three massive shows in Peru, Chile and Brazil. It's expected that these shows will contain some special unique moments.
9th May will see Paul's first ever show in Lima, Peru at the Estadio Monumental. The tour then travels to Santiago, Chile, returning there for the first time since 1993 with a show on 11th May at Estadio Nacional. The run of shows will finish in Rio de Janeiro at the Estadio Olimpico Joao Havelange on the 22nd of May with Paul being the first ever artist to perform at this venue. The last time Paul played in Rio, 21 years ago, a World Record was set for the 'Largest Stadium Attendance' in history.
Speaking about his forthcoming shows Paul said, " We had a great time in South America at the end of last year. The audiences know how to party and me and the band are looking forward to going back in May for some more rock n' roll fun!"
Paul and his band are currently rehearsing ideas for this new leg of the Up and Coming Tour and it's safe to say that these shows will feature nearly three hours of the world's best loved and most known music. Paul's live show features songs spanning his unrivalled career, from The Beatles, Wings, solo material and The Fireman's critically acclaimed album 'Electric Arguments'.
In 2010 Paul performed over 30 shows as part of his 'Up and Coming Tour' in North America, South America and the UK, winning unprecedented reviews wherever the band played. Paul rocked over 750,000 people last year and audience members included fans such as Katie Holmes, Dave Grohl, Samuel L Jackson, Quincy Jones, Woody Harrelson, the Jonas Brothers, Kings Of Leon, Kaiser Chiefs, David Walliams, Kanye West, Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow, Tom Hanks, Neil Young, Brian Wilson, John Paul Jones, Jack Nicholson, Steven Tyler, Danny Devito, Jerry Seinfeld, Alec Baldwin, Martha Stewart, Tony Bennett, Ben Stiller, Kevin Bacon, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood, Steve Coogan, Paul Weller, Frank Skinner, Rob Brydon and Chris Moyles.
The year saw many career firsts for Paul including rocking The White House in front of President Barack Obama and his family in June when Paul was awarded with the prestigious Gershwin Prize For Popular Song (he was the first ever UK recipient). Paul returned to the White House again in December (where even the President joked about Paul becoming a regular there!) to be awarded with a Kennedy Centre Honour.
Paul ended 2010 with three intimate homecoming shows in the UK. He played the smallest club show of his career at London's legendary 100 Club to just 300 people, which made headlines as far as China. The final two shows were at the Hammersmith Apollo and at Liverpool's O2 Academy. Both shows broke venue box office records.

Web edition: June 24, 2012
Print edition: July 28, 2012; Vol.182 #2 (p. 10)
A dreamland ditty played softly during a nap helps people hit the right notes while awake. Soft tones during sleep creep into the napping brain and strengthen playing skills, researchers report online June 24 in Nature Neuroscience.
The results don't mean that after a nighttime Beethoven sonata, a piano novice will wake up with the ability to play it. But the results do suggest that an existing skill can be sharpened during a nap, says study coauthor Ken Paller of Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill.
Earlier work by Paller and others has found that sound and odor cues during sleep can improve a person's memory for the locations of objects. The new study extends those results by showing that a learned skill — in this instance, playing music — can also be influenced during sleep. Although these sorts of experiments are just getting started, "the door is wide open," Paller says. Musical ability, athletic prowess and other talents that normally require a lot of practice may be amenable to boosts during sleep.
Before the easy job of having a nap, 16 right-handed participants in the study had to do some actual work. Volunteers learned two different not-very-catchy tunes, played with their left hands on the a, s, d and f keys of a computer. In an arrangement similar to that of Guitar Hero, circles that floated up the screen told participants which key to hit and when.
After this training, the volunteers' chairs were converted into comfy beds for a 90-minute nap. When scalp electrodes indicated that the snoozers had entered slow-wave sleep, a phase that's thought to be important for memory processing, researchers surreptitiously played one of the two songs the volunteers had just learned.
Refreshed from their siestas, volunteers were better overall at playing both songs than before their naps. But there was an important difference in this improvement: People were better at playing the song that was broadcasted during their nap than the song that hadn't graced their sleep.
This effect may be caused in part by sleep spindles, waves of electrical activity that have been linked to memory processing during sleep. Spindles in the right premotor cortex — the brain area that controls movement of the left hand — were tied with the post-nap performance, the team found. "The more spindles, the more benefit," Paller says.
It's not clear whether the gain represents a simple boost or just a bias in shifting the brain's attention to one song at the expense of the other, Paller says. Sleep may offer a finite window of improvement, such that enhancing one skill may come at the expense of another.
Just because a skill can be sharpened during sleep doesn't necessarily mean that it should, says sleep researcher Robert Stickgold of Harvard Medical School. "I think your brain does a lot of triaging at night. Now, you're trying to override that triaging and tell your brain what it should be worrying about."
And overriding the brain is fraught with the problem of choosing what to listen to, Stickgold says. "I would argue that sleep might be smarter than you."

Snow surrounds a display board at the Accenture Match Play Championship (Stuart Franklin / Getty Images / February 20, 2013) |
It's not often you get to write this about golf: The first round of the Accenture Match Play Championship was suspended Wednesday because of snow in Marana, Ariz.
Competitors will try to continue play tomorrow, weather permitting.
"Yes yes the greens are covered in snow in Arizona. Wow it was freezing out there," golfer Ian Poulter tweeted.
Several matches were underway when the snow began to fall. How much snow? Enough for caddies to start a snowball fight, which they did to the delight of the sparse crowd in attendance.
Ten of the 32 matches had not started, including Tiger Woods versus Charles Howell III, who have not faced each other since Woods beat Howell in the third round of the 1996 U.S. Amateur.
The closest player to finishing was Bo Van Pelt, who overcame two bad holes early and built a 5-up lead over John Senden of Australia as they were heading to the 13th hole.
Sergio Garcia was 2-up over Thongchai Jaidee in the leadoff match that was through 15 holes.
Jason Day was 6-up over Zach Johnson through 10 holes in what was shaping up as another rout, while defending champion Hunter Mahan was 4-up over Matteo Manassero of Italy through nine holes.

Don't hold your breath waiting for stuff like THIS to trigger any soul-searching among the mainstream media:
Against overwhelming evidence that Republicans have plotted to obstruct everything President Obama does, even the things they agree with, the mainstream media has stubbornly insisted that "both sides" are the problem, that there's just a "polarization" problem in DC. In an interview on Current TV's "The War Room with Jennifer Granholm," Politico's Joe Williams says that the press has been cowed into this perversion of "objectivity" by a right-wing that specializes in working the ref (I'm paraphrasing, of course).
The Republicans' obstruction of President ...

Avon Eagles sink Vermilion Sailors in West Shore Conference action
VERMILION — Avon has been looking for something to hang its hat on. It may have found it.
Playing a tough defense, the Eagles held host Vermilion to 12 first-half points en route to a 52-37 West Shore Conference win Wednesday.
"We are a strong defensive team," Avon coach Meghan Banks said. "But over the last few games, we've been looking for something to define us. So we have been emphasizing our pressure defense which starts with our guards."
With Vermilion (12-9, 5-8) celebrating senior night and senior AuBree LaForce closing in on being the all-time leading scorer, Avon (12-9, 9-4) came out with its pressure. It held the Sailors to seven first quarter points — all scored by Hannah Bartlome.

Does anybody know one? An atheist named "Christian" is worse than Johnny Ca$h's "A boy named Sue". If anyone knows this guy, let me know so I can set up a paypal account to help support his therapy sessions.
Part of me really really really wants Christian Siriano to be an atheist. Please. That would just totally make my day so fierce.
Mine too! I ♥ this. lol

What about Jesus, or John, or Mathew, or Mark, or Luke, or Moses, or Mary, or Jezebel............don't they need help too?
Me, I am named Michael, after the big boss of all the angels, can I get some funding for therapy?

Investing in Community Education
The Elmbrook Education Foundation supports the students at all 11 of the District's public schools through its Continuing Education Scholarship, Innovation Grant and Super Grant Programs. In addition, the Foundation has established an endowment held by the Waukesha County Community Foundation to provide a source of permanent support for Foundation programs. For more information, please refer to the Foundation's web site.
Foundation Awards $17,000 in Latest Round of Innovation Grants
The Elmbrook Education Foundation strives to fund projects that show creativity and innovation in instruction with a potential to provide a District-wide impact in the future. The EEF would like to congratulate the following applicants who will be receiving funding through the EEF's Innovation Grant Program to help bring their ideas to life!
Patricia Pelzel (Assistive Technology Integrator, Dixon Elementary) will receive a grant award of $5424 to measure the benefits of using SOLO literacy software in the regular elementary classroom to determine if it should become universally accessible (available to any student at any time that can benefit from its use). This software was previously reserved for students in the special education classrooms due to its ability to provide adaptations to support students with special needs as they develop their writing skills. Studies have since proven benefits for struggling and average writing students in regular classrooms as well. Providing access to the SOLO Literacy Software in the regular classroom would not only support the District's objective to allow special education students to spend more time with their peers, it would provide additional support to other students who could benefit from its use. This 'pilot' will be conducted with a select group of elementary students in the 2nd semester of the 2010-11 school year. Results will be measured against other control groups to determine its success. This project will determine scalability of this type of product along with its recommended role in supporting the ELA curriculum for different student groups. Similar software (Kurzweil) is universally accessible at the secondary level. Results from the Elementary 'SOLO pilot' could have an impact on how Kurzweil is leveraged at the secondary level as well. The Foundation applauds Ms. Pelzel's desire to leverage proven technologies to benefit other student groups.
In memory of Landis F. Knutson .....
Landis F. Knutson passed away on November 17, 2010 at the age of 80. Services were held at the Community United Methodist Church in Elm Grove on November 21, 2010. Memorials were directed to the Elmbrook Education Foundation because of Landis's passion for education and his impact within the Elmbrook School District as both a teacher and administrator.
Landis began his career with the newly formed Elmbrook School District in 1955. Landis later served as an Assistant Principal at Pilgrim Park Middle School alongside Irv Hoesly who served as Principal from 1966-1985. Landis and Irv were close friends during their tenure with Elmbrook. Irv recently passed away as well (please see related story).
SMART Response Campaign Complete! THANK YOU!!!!
In the fall of 2009, the Elmbrook Education Foundation embarked on a campaign to deliver SMART Response Assessment Units to all middle school math classrooms at both Wisconsin Hills and Pilgrim Park Middle Schools. Thanks to community support, the last 3 units are now on order which means all math classrooms will have the benefit of this technology to kick off the 2nd semester of the 2010-11 school year.
The Middle School SMART Response Grant represents the 2nd cycle of the Foundation's District-wide Super Grant Program. The first Super Grant cycle was directed towards technology initiatives at BEHS and BCHS back in 2008. Please refer to the related link on this project later in this post for details.

My first on the Bulger list! Did this with some new amazing friends as a day trip. Ended up being 15.5 hours and I have to admit, it kicked my butt but was the best ever. Being the first on the Bulger list and the beginning of new friendships, it will always be special to me. Although, I doubt I will repeat this one! | ||

This was a lot more enjoyable than I was looking forward to. I thought it was going to be an endless dirty slog. It is very long, but the rock formations and scenery keep you moving. There is a nice ledge at the top of the couloir that would fit 3-4 tents. I want to stay there next time. | ||

First time climbed the Cascadian Couloir, fine going up, kind of a long pain in the neck going down. Really fun scrambling near the top. The second time I climbed the West Ridge with my friend Andy in August 2007, with a great camping spot near Ingalls Lake. A long and complicated but fun route. | ||

Climbed the West Ridge. Incredible day on the mountain. 10 hrs to get up it and 1 1/2 to get down (didn't feel like a bivy with cold beer waiting at camp). My knees won't let me forget about that anytime soon. Free-solo'd the last pitch which proved very exiting! | ||

Fellow SP member "Gimpilator" and I did this as a one-day trek. 8000' total elevation gain and 13.25 hours (including one hour at the summit). Perfect weather conditions, and the awesome view from the summit made the entire climb worth it. One of my all-time favorite climbs. | ||

A wonderful 2 day climb with good weather and a great climbing partner. Climbed with Marnel on her first trip up a mountain. Well done Marnel! 5 1/2 hours creek to summit, 5 hour slide down the scree, then the trudge back over Longs pass. Long day but a great experience. | ||

laurel | West Ridge Date Climbed: Jun 27, 2009 | |
Camped at Ingalls Pass, which turned out to be a bit far from the West Ridge (we aren't the earliest risers or fastest hikers), especially since we did the full West Ridge instead of the second gully. Got to the summit at 6. Bivied in the trees at 7000 ft in the Cascadian Couloir. | ||

gcap | West Ridge Date Climbed: Jun 26, 2009 | |
Still a lot of snow on approach and on route. Climbed with Denny - some 5.6 variations. Great day, great weather, horrible descent via the cascadian. Ascent gully to summit in 7 hours. | ||

live2climb90 | Cascadian Couloir Date Climbed: Jun 13, 2009 | |
Camped at Longs Pass, left at 5 in the morning for a hard day. Finally reached the summit at about 1:30 to nice skies and good weather, and about an hour into the descent a thunderstorm rolled in really quick. I was at the top of the couloir when the false summit was struck by lightning, and I booked it down to Ingalls Creek as fast as I could. From there I waited out the thunderstorm for about 2 hours until returning to my camp at Longs pass. It was a hard day, the snow was soft which was slow going. The final summit ridge had some incredible views, but be careful to stay away from the old cornices and away from the north side as much as possible... its a long way down there. I would recommend bringing someone else along because it is really steep and rocky, and it would have been nice to have a little extra security. | ||

Tom Fralich | Ice Cliff Glacier Date Climbed: Jun 8, 2009 | |
Bill Ayers and I climbed this route from a camp at 5,200 ft. The conditions on the route were perfect. We did a few pitches on steep ice through the ice cliff, then negotiated some crevasses and the bergschrund, and simul-climbed the couloir to the ridge. We slogged up the ridge in soft snow to the summit and then descended the Sherpa Glacier. The snow on the descent was soft, but we made quick progress downclimbing. Very interesting route and descent. Terrible approach. | ||

mcpherma | Cascadian Date Climbed: Jul 9, 2008 | |
This was my first attempt at mountainiering. We made it to the false summit via the Cascadian before I ran out of talent, time and courage. I have now overcome my fear of heights and the true summit is only a trailhead access away. | ||

TRP | Complete North Ridge | |
My wife and I climbed the complete North ridge and the gendarme. Doing the Complete ridge is much longer than going up the gully, but it has some of the best climbing. We climbed the Gendarme as well, well worth it. We did have a mini epic though, as we descended the Ulrich coulior in the dark. Don't do this! The descent ended up taking as much time as the climb. | ||

BKW | Late Season CC Date Climbed: Oct 11, 2008 | |
We waited a bit too long to climb this one. The snow level was around 8,000 feet. The summit ridge was caked in ice and there wasn't enough snow to fill in the cracks. We turned back about five steps after the false summit. The crappy conditions on the ridge were offset by the gold larches and other fall colors. The weather was perfect. | ||

Published Sept. 18, 2012
The S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control gave special treatment to Santee Cooper by allowing the public utility to decide whether DHEC needed to issue a new water permit for coal ash lagoons, a lawsuit filed today argues.
The Southern Environmental Law Center filed the lawsuit on behalf of the Waccamaw Riverkeeper and the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy. The groups are suing DHEC.
Santee Cooper stores 650,000 tons of coal ash in lagoons of the Waccamaw River, according to a news release from the lawsuit's plaintiffs. The lawsuit argues the lagoons are polluting the Waccamaw River with arsenic, mercury and copper.
It also argues DHEC issued its Clean Water Act permit to Santee Cooper for the lagoons in 2002, and the permit expired in 2006.
DHEC hasn't issued a new permit since then.
"Santee Cooper and DHEC have communicated about the permit, and DHEC has indicated to Santee Cooper that it would issue the permit if Santee Cooper wanted it to," according to the release. "Santee Cooper has stated: 'We don't want to push the permitting.'"
Mollie Gore, a spokesperson with Santee Cooper, said the utility hasn't seen a copy of the lawsuit yet.
"Regarding the permit, Santee Cooper filed for a permit renewal in a timely manner and since the permit expired, we have continued to operate under its terms while DHEC considers our renewal application," Gore said. " We are in full compliance with that permit. We have not asked DHEC to stall the process."
Officials with DHEC were unavailable for comment.

TOKYO - Now it's official: Toyota is once again the world's top automaker.
Toyota Motor Corp. released its tally for global vehicle sales for last year Monday at a record 9.748 million vehicles - a bigger number than the estimate it gave last month of about 9.7 million vehicles.
It was already clear Toyota had dethroned General Motors Co. as the Detroit-based automaker fell short, selling 9.29 million vehicles.
GM had been the top-selling automaker for more than seven decades before losing the title to Toyota in 2008.
GM retook the sales crown in 2011, when Toyota's production was hurt by the quake and tsunami in northeastern Japan.
The latest results show Toyota's powerful comeback.
Global vehicle sales for the maker of the Camry sedan, Prius hybrid and Lexus luxury model surged nearly 23 percent from the previous year. Overseas sales jumped 19 percent, while sales in Japan, where the economy has been troubled, recovered a whopping 35 percent.
Volkswagen AG of Germany, the world's No. 3 automaker, sold a record 9.1 million vehicles around the world.
All three automakers play down the significance of the sales ranking and say they are focused on making
"Rather than going after numbers, we hope to make fine products, one by one, to keep out customers satisfied. The numbers are just a result of our policy. And our policy will continue unchanged," said Toyota spokeswoman Shino Yamada.
Still, the recovery for Toyota is impressive. Like other Japanese automakers, Toyota's production was devastated by the March 2011 disasters, which disrupted supplies of crucial components. Flooding in Thailand, where Toyota has factories, also hurt car production.
Before that, it struggled against a crisis of massive recalls in the U.S. over defective floor mats, gas pedals and brakes, involving millions of vehicles, some recalled over and over, that hurt its reputation for quality.
Toyota officials have vowed to scrutinize quality, and have held back product development to minimize recalls.
From the middle of last year, it was hit by another kind of problem - a widespread boycott of Japanese products, including Toyota cars, in China over a territorial dispute.
But sales growth in other parts of the world, including the U.S. and Asian nations such as Indonesia and India, was more than enough to offset such losses.
Toyota is planning to sell 9.91 million vehicles globally in 2013, putting it back on track toward its earlier goal of 10 million vehicles - a target that it had made a special effort to play down after its recall crisis.

Debuting on March 12, 1940, the exciting radio serial was an instant hit. Starring Clayton "Bud" Collyer in the dual roles of Superman and Clark Kent, this initial nine-episode sequence tells the story of the destruction of Krypton and the Man of Steel's arrival on Earth. It features the very first appearances anywhere of Lois Lane, Perry White, and the Daily Planet, and introduces two recurring arch-enemies: the Wolf and the Yellow Mask.
The Adventures of Superman was a radio mainstay until its final episode in March 1951. In all, "Bud" Collyer played his most famous role in more than 2,000 episodes.
Up, up, and away! Download more Adventures of Superman.

"The long-running adventure serial...was one of the hallmarks of the Golden Age of radio....Superman was never able to fly as high on television as he had for an adventure-filled decade in radio's theater of the imagination." (Anthony Tollin, "Superman on Radio")
"Radio Superman Adventures"
This old radio program was thouroughly enjoyable! It was fun for me to be able to relive a radio drama as they had used to be performed in the days of my parents with my young son. A wonderful blend of time and technology. Thanks for this opprotunity!
I absolutely love my audible account, makes its from enjoying a book to loving the stories found in the books. Do forgive my errors in the reviews i do have dyslexia but i will share my love with everyone
"The Classic Hero of Imagination"
Everyone knows who Superman is. they make movies and cartoons to go with his comics. the best part of this is your imagination is at work. each person individually sees what they want to see as the cast of this great show only gives you basic ideas for what he is doing. we see the speed he can fly. we imagine how superman sees in the dark (me i personally envision night vision goggle mode) and we sore around the world beside our childhood hero
The only down side is right now there is only four volumes, four adventures of the superman story. the show ran almost every day for 11 years, if Audible can get more of this classic show i would love to buy more.

As we all know, after starting the "wonderful" Quantitative Easing II ("QE2") program in November 2010, the prices of crude oil are in a hiking process. Also the weak dollar and China's taking over actions, the crude traders had to live really excited days in the last months. The prices of WTI and Brent are around $100 or even higher and there are no improvements to await.
But, while almost every big company stays under Wall Street's control, we may find other little companies, so called "independent" firms, that don't look very affected by this crisis. Let's take for example the Legend Oil and Gas Ltd. A company based in Seattle. Works in the acquisition, exploration, exploitation, development, and production of oil and gas properties. It is not followed by Wall Street, and this makes it a real profitable trade partner for others. It also has a big stock on crude oil and gas. But the best of all is the price offered for this materials.
Around $2.28 per barrel. Isn't this an incredible number? Just look at the actual WTI and Brent charts: $99.08 and $117.15 per barrel!
However, the Legend Oil and Gas Ltd signed in the last days a very profitable contract with International Sovereign Energy Corp to adopt ISR's interests in land and production in Canada.

Students in Watkins Glen are hoping that four pairs of sneakers will keep their art program alive. They're competing in the nationwide Vans Custom Culture contest, designing Vans sneakers for a shot at $50,000 for their school's art program. Our Lara Greenberg tells us what this money could do for the students, and how you can help them win.
WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- Guitar strings as shoelaces, bike gears lining the lace holes. Courtney Tuttle is one of nine Watkins Glen students hoping their creative sneaker designs will lead to $50,000. "I'm nervous and excited. And it's kind of all I want to talk about to my family and things like that," said Watkins Glen sophomore Courtney Tuttle.
It's part of the nationwide Vans Custom Culture sneaker design contest. The grand prize is $50,000 for the school's art program. Online voting has put Watkins Glen in second place in the Northeast region. "The size school we are, to compete with some of the schools on that list is just outstanding. But I'll put up our kids against any of them," said Watkins Glen principal David Warren.
If they win in the Northeast, they go to California for the finals and win $4,000. If the students make the trip to California they could also win $5,000 for the best local flavor shoe, which in this case, features a race car from WGI and actual vines from a local vineyard.
But senior Meredith Johnson says they're not settling for second best. In a small school like Watkins Glen, $50,000 can go a long way.
"It's pretty important right now especially because of all the budget cuts that we're having and just because the art department doesn't get a lot of credit, so we don't really have that much spending money," said Watkins Glen senior Meredith Johnson.
Their art teacher says it could buy more supplies, computers, or programs like Photoshop. And with only a few days left to vote, Courtney, Meredith, and their classmates are hoping the underdogs will come out on top.
You can vote for Watkins Glen online until 11:59 on Thursday night. To vote, head over to www.vans.com/customculture.
