21 January 2014
Clockwise from top right: Tomas Berdych (CZE) and Radek Stepanek (CZE); The Canadian team; Andy Murray (GBR) and Colin Fleming (GBR); Richard Gasquet (FRA) and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (FRA)
The nominations for the World Group first round ties have been announced and there are some surprises all round.
France has opted for strength in depth in singles, by naming a team that includes two Top 10 singles players in No. 9 Richard Gasquet and No. 10 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, as well as No. 32 Gael Monfils and No. 38 Julien Benneteau.
The French will not know what to expect from their Australian visitors for the opening round clash in La Roche sur Yon as captain Pat Rafter has named two juniors in his side to play in the Antipodeans' first World Group tie since 2007.
Davis Cup stalwart Lleyton Hewitt will lead an inexperienced team that includes teenagers Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis as well as doubles go-to man Chris Guccione.
"We believe we have a chance," said Rafter. "These kids, they're pretty exceptional in many ways. There is an element of bleeding them into the team - no doubt about that - and give them that exposure.
"How they deal with that, I think they'll deal with it really well. I think they're going to love the atmosphere and the occasion.
"Davis Cup has a tradition of throwing up some upsets. When you've got youth and energy on your side, you have passion, you always have a chance.
"Davis Cup is a great platform. It's helped a lot of people, including myself. I don't see why this will be any different for these two boys."
Reigning champions Czech Republic have named a full-strength line-up to take on Netherlands in Ostrava.
The Czechs welcome back captain Jaroslav Navratil, who will oversee his dynamic duo of Tomas Berdych and Radek Stepanek in their bid for a third consecutive Davis Cup title.
There are no surprises with the team to represent Netherlands as Jan Siemerink has nominated Robin Haase, Igor Sijsling, Thiemo de Bakker and Jean-Julien Rojer to play the defending champions.
The first tie of the weekend time-wise is sure to be a closely contested affair as Japan and Canada have both named their top players.
World No. 17 Kei Nishikori will lead the host nation against a Canadian side that contains World No. 11 Milos Raonic and the up-and-coming Vasek Pospisil.
Canada is looking to improve on last year's performance when the North Americans reached the World Group semifinals for the first time. Japan is hoping to win a first World Group tie.
The tie between USA and Great Britain looks set to be a thriller. The hosts have named John Isner and Sam Querrey to contest the singles and the Bryan brothers to play in the doubles.
Britain, meanwhile, have named world No. 4 Andy Murray, James Ward, youngster Kyle Edmund and doubles expert Colin Fleming.
Murray is expected to play on all three days, whereas Edmund, who won a Futures title on clay last week, is expected to serve more of a purpose as a practice partner.
Switzerland will be without Roger Federer for its trip to Serbia. The Swiss will be led by Stanislas Wawrinka, who defeated Novak Djokovic in the Australian Open quarterfinals on Tuesday night.
They take on a Serbian team that will be without either world No. 2 Novak Djokovic or Janko Tipsarevic. Instead, the Serbians will turn to Dusan Lajovic and Filip Krajinovic in singles with Ilija Bozoljac and Nenad Zimonjic in doubles.
Germany welcomes back Tommy Haas for its first round tie against Spain. Haas has played just once for Germany since 2007 and will be hoping to make the difference against a tough opponent.
Backing up the 35-year-old will be Philipp Kohlschreiber and Florian Mayer, with Daniel Brands set to partner one of the above in the doubles.
Carlos Moya's first tie as Davis Cup captain could be a tricky one as the Mallorcan has to face Germany on an indoor hard court without either world No. 1 Rafael Nadal or No. 3 David Ferrer on his team.
Instead, Spain will be led by Feliciano Lopez and Fernando Verdasco with back-up in singles from Roberto Bautista Agut. The doubles team will likely be Verdasco and David Marrero.
Argentina is aiming to continue its fabulous record of always reaching at least the World Group quarterfinals every year since 2002, but the South Americans face a stern test from an in-form Italian outfit.
Argentina has named Carlos Berlocq and Juan Monaco in singles, with Horacio Zeballos and Eduardo Schwank expected to make up the doubles partnership.
Italy has gone with its strongest possible line-up, naming No. 16 Fabio Fognini and No. 25 Andreas Sepppi alongside Filippo Volandri and Simone Bolelli.
And lastly, Belgium will make the trip to Astana to play Kazakhstan in the first round.
David Goffin returns from a thigh injury to lead an expectant nation in arguably the easiest draw for his team. He will be supported by Ruben Bemelmans, Oliver Rochus and Germain Gigounon.
The Kazakhs have a tried and trusted unit to call upon, with Mikhail Kukushkin once again leading the charge alongside Andrey Golubev. They will be backed up by Yevgeny Korolev and new boy Denis Yevseyev.

Lessons learned at WVU camp
MORGANTOWN - What I learned from WVU's football camp Friday:
Offensive lineman Pat Eger, all 6-foot-6, 302 pounds of him, was talking about various topics when he started in on the relationship between the Mountaineer football team and West Virginia residents.
"In the winter," he said, "sometimes the coaches would come up and teach us about the program, the past players, the history of the state and how much [the team] means to the state.
"Some of these kids are from the Midwest. I'm just from [Pleasant Hills] Pennsylvania, up the road. But I learned some things.
"We were able to understand the significance of the team and the role it plays here. There's no pro team. And what's the population here, 1.9 million people? Ninety-five percent seem to be Mountaineer fans.
"We learned how West Virginia seceded from Virginia. We learned about the immigrants and coal miners. Coach [Tony Gibson] talked to us about how his dad was a coal miner.
"We learned about the former players, from Brian Jozwiak to Major Harris and Pat White. The younger players already knew about Geno Smith and Tavon Austin."
"I was at left tackle the first couple of days," said offensive lineman Nick Kindler. "But I've been switched to right tackle lately. Each day you have to be on your toes, be prepared for change."
Kindler certainly understands change. The redshirt senior has worked with three line coaches since arriving: Dave Johnson, Bill Bedenbaugh and, now, Ron Crook.
"I'm just going to work hard," Millard said. "I've been here 21/2 years. I pride myself on working hard. Whatever happens, happens. God got me here so far."
"Coach [Lonnie] Galloway is doing a great job with them," said running back Dustin Garrison. "They still have a little more work to do though, like understanding new routes and things like that."
"It's the deepest group since I've been here," said Ivan McCartney, who was with WVU, left, then returned. "There's a lot of competition. I love it.
"For us to be so young, though, we're adapting so well. It's a talented group."
McCartney, by the way, said he's "doing very well, better than ever."
Might that mean a starting position for a senior who entered school as a highly regarded recruit?
"I'm very confident in myself," he said. "But right now I don't know. I'm just trying to help the best I can."
That redshirt senior Will Clarke, all 6-7, 273 pounds of him, is indeed a defensive leader.
On Friday, the defensive lineman wore ice on his right shoulder. ("Just soreness," he said. "Prevention.") He said his backup, Eric Kinsey, a 6-2, 265-pound sophomore, has been getting work with the first unit.
He complimented Hinds [Miss.] Community College transfer Dontrill Hyman, a 6-4, 265-pound junior.
"I see him playing a lot of snaps," Clarke said. "He has a lot of explosion. He just needs to get some technique down."
Then he gave a state of the WVU football state address.
"As the days go on," he said, "the intensity is picking up. There's a battle going on between the offense and defense."

Barack Obama Speaks Out on Reverend Wright; Virginia Reels from Three Tornadoes
Aired April 29, 2008 - 15:00 ET
DON LEMON, CNN ANCHOR: All right, the minister and the senator who would be president. Barack Obama says he can't make his former pastor shut up, but he can make clear that the Reverend Jeremiah Wright does not speak for him. MELISSA LONG, CNN ANCHOR: Senator Obama says the Reverend Wright shocked him yesterday with outrageous rants and is not the man he knew for two decades. And Wright, Obama says, clearly does not know him either. Hello to you. I'm Melissa Long here at the CNN Center in Atlanta. I'm in today for Kyra Phillips. LEMON: And I'm Don lemon. You're in the CNN NEWSROOM. All right. Right off the top here, anger, shock and surprise from Barack Obama, as he responds to the latest comments from his former pastor. The Democratic front-runner chose to speak out about Jeremiah Wright a short time ago in North Carolina. (BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) SEN. BARACK OBAMA (D-IL), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Hello, everybody. Before I start taking questions, I want to just open it up with a couple of comments about what we saw and heard yesterday. You know, I have spent my entire adult life trying to bridge the gap between different kinds of people. That's in my DNA, trying to promote mutual understanding, to insist that we all share common hopes and common dreams as Americans and as human beings. That's who I am. That's what I believe. That's what this campaign has been about. Yesterday, we saw a very different vision of America. I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened over the spectacle that we saw yesterday. I have been a member of Trinity United Church of Christ since 1992. I have known Reverend Wright for almost 20 years. The person I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago. His comments were not only divisive and destructive, but I believe that they end up giving comfort to those who prey on hate. And I believe that they do not portray accurately the perspective of the black church. They certainly don't portray accurately my values and beliefs. And if Reverend Wright thinks that that's political posturing, as he put it, then he doesn't know me very well. And based on his remarks yesterday, well, I may not know him as well as I thought either. Now, I have already denounced the comments that had appeared in these previous sermons. As I said, I had not heard them before. And I gave him the benefit of the doubt in my speech in Philadelphia, explaining that he has done enormous good in the church. He's built a wonderful congregation. The people at Trinity are wonderful people. And what attracted me has always been their ministry's reach beyond the church walls. But, when he states and then amplifies such ridiculous propositions as the U.S. government somehow being involved in AIDS, when he suggests that Minister Farrakhan somehow represents one of the greatest voices of the 20th and 21st century, when he equates the United States' wartime efforts with terrorism, then there are no excuses. They offend me. They rightly offend all Americans. And they should be denounced. And that's what I'm doing, very clearly and unequivocally, here today. Let me just close by saying this. I -- we started this campaign with the idea that the problems that we face as a country are too great to continue to be divided, that, in fact, all across America, people are hungry to get out of the old divisive politics of the past. I have spoken and written about the need for us to all recognize each other as Americans, regardless of race or religion or region of the country, that the only way we can deal with critical issues like energy and health care and education and the war on terrorism is if we are joined together. And the reason our campaign has been so successful is because we had moved beyond these old arguments. What we saw yesterday out of Reverend Wright was a resurfacing and I believe an exploitation of those old divisions. Whatever his intentions, that was the result. It is antithetical to our campaign. It is antithetical to what I am about. It is not what I think America stands for. And I want to be very clear that, moving forward, Reverend Wright does not speak for me. He does not speak for our campaign. I cannot prevent him from continuing to make these outrageous remarks. But what I do want him to be very clear about, as well as all of you and the American people, is that, when I say I find these comments appalling, I mean it. It contradicts everything that I am about and who I am. And anybody who has worked with me, who knows my life, who has read my books, who has seen what this campaign is about, I think, will understand that it is completely opposed to what I stand for and where I want to take this country. Last point, I am particularly distressed that this has caused such a distraction from what this campaign should be about, which is the American people. Their situation is getting worse. And this campaign has never been about me. It's never been about Senator Clinton or John McCain. It's not about Reverend Wright. People want some help in stabilizing their lives and securing a better future for themselves and their children. And that's what we should be talking about. And the fact that Reverend Wright would think that, somehow, it was appropriate to command the stage for three or four consecutive days in the midst of this major debate is something that not only makes me angry, but also saddens me. So, with that, let me take some questions. QUESTION: Senator... OBAMA: Yes, go ahead. QUESTION: ... why the change of tone from yesterday? When you spoke to us on the tarmac yesterday, you didn't have this sense of anger and outrage. OBAMA: I will be honest with you, because I hadn't seen it yet. QUESTION: (OFF-MIC) OBAMA: Yes. QUESTION: (OFF-MIC) the AIDS comment? OBAMA: I had not. I had not seen the transcript. What I had heard was s that he had given a performance. And I thought at the time that it would be sufficient simply to reiterate what I had said in Philadelphia. Upon watching it, what became clear to me was that it was more than just a -- it was more than just him defending himself. What became clear to me was that he was presenting a world view that contradicts who I am and what I stand for. And what I think particularly angered me was his suggestion, somehow, that my previous denunciation of his remarks was somehow political posturing. Anybody who knows me and anybody who knows what I'm about knows that I am about trying to bridge gaps and that I see the commonality in all people. And, so, when I start hearing comments about conspiracy theories and AIDS and suggestions that somehow Minister Farrakhan has been a great voice in the 20th century, then that goes directly at who I am and what I believe this country needs. QUESTION: Senator, what do you expect or what do you plan to do about this right now to further distance yourself from him, if you think you need to do that? And what does this say about your judgment to superdelegates who are right now trying to decide which Democratic nominee is better? If your candidacy has been based on judgment, what does this say? OBAMA: Well, look, as I said before, the person I saw yesterday was not the person that I had come to know over 20 years. I understand that I think he was pained and angered from what had happened previously during the first stage of this controversy. I think he felt vilified and attacked. And I understand that he wanted to defend himself. You know, I understand that, you know, he's gone through difficult times of late and that he's leaving his ministry after many years. And, so, you know, that may account for the change. But the insensitivity and the -- the outrageousness of his statements and his performance in the question-and-answer period yesterday, I think, shocked me. It surprised me. As I said before, this is an individual who has built a very fine church, and a church that is well-respected throughout Chicago. During the course of me attending that church, I had not heard those kinds of statements being made or those kinds of views being promoted. And I did not vet my pastor before I decided to run for the presidency. I was a member of the church. So, you know, I think what it says is that, you know, I have not -- you know, I did not run through -- run my pastor through the paces or review every one of the sermons he made over the last three years -- 30 years, but I don't think that anybody could attribute those ideas to me. (END VIDEOTAPE) LEMON: OK. What effect will this have on Obama's campaign? How does he respond to that? And was it an attack on the black church, as Reverend Wright has said? And will Barack Obama continue to go to Trinity United Church in Chicago? He answers those questions right after the break. (COMMERCIAL BREAK) LONG: Senator Barack Obama, while on the campaign trail today, took just shy of 30 minutes to answer questions from reporters in North Carolina about the Reverend Jeremiah Wright controversy. He used the words "appalling," "ridiculous," and that the "comments offend me" when talking about the Reverend Wright. Now, we're going to play the second part of that lengthy news conference for you. And I just want to set it up. You will hear a question from a reporter in the audience. And the question is, what could this all do to the Obama campaign? (BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) QUESTION: (OFF-MIC) OBAMA: You know, that's something that you guys will have to figure out. And, you know, obviously, we have got elections in four or five days, so we will find out what impact it has. But, ultimately, I think that the American people know that we have to do better than we're doing right now. I think that they believe in the ideas of this campaign. I think they are convinced that special interests have dominated Washington too long. I think they are convinced that we have got to get beyond some of the same political games that we have been playing. I think they believe that we need to speak honestly and truthfully about how we're going to solve issues like energy or health care. And I believe that this campaign has inspired a lot of people. And that's part of what -- you know, going back to what you asked, Mike, about why I feel so strongly about this today, you know, after seeing Reverend Wright's performance, I felt as if there was a complete disregard for what -- for what the American people are going through and the need for them to rally together to solve these problems. You know, it now is the time for us to not to get distracted. Now is the time for us to pull together. And that's what we have been doing in this campaign. And there was a sense that that did not matter to Reverend Wright. What mattered was him commanding center stage. QUESTION: Have you had a conversation with Reverend Wright? And... OBAMA: No. QUESTION: ... what's going to happen if these distractions continue? OBAMA: Well, the -- I want to use this press conference to make people absolutely clear that, obviously, whatever relationship I had with Reverend Wright has changed as a consequence of this. I don't think that he showed much concern for me. I don't -- more importantly, I don't think he showed much concern for what we're trying to do in this campaign and what we're trying to do for the American people and with the American people. And, obviously, he's free to speak out on issues that are of concern to him. And he can do it in any ways that he wants. But I feel very strongly that -- well, I want to make absolutely clear that I do not subscribe to the views that he expressed. I believe they are wrong. I think they are destructive. And, to the extent that he continues to speak out, I do not expect those views to be attributed to me. QUESTION: I remember, after the story -- when the story immediately broke, Trinity Church, the current pastor kind of defended Reverend Wright. I'm wondering -- I don't know what -- how he has reacted to the latest, but I'm wondering if you continue planning on attending Trinity. OBAMA: Well, you know, the new pastor, the young pastor, Reverend Otis Moss, is a wonderful young pastor. And, as I said, I still very much value the Trinity community. This -- I will be honest. This obviously has put strains on that relationship, not because of the members or because of Reverend Moss, but because this has become such a spectacle. And, you know, when I go to church, it's not for spectacle. It's to pray and to find -- to find a stronger sense of faith. It's not to posture politically. It's not to -- you know, it's not to hear things that violate my core beliefs. And, so, you know -- and I certainly don't want to provide a distraction for those who are worshipping at Trinity. So, as of this point, I am a member of Trinity. I haven't had a discussion with Reverend Moss about it. So, I can't tell you how he's reacting and how he's responding. OK? QUESTION: Senator, I'm wondering, to sort of follow on Jeff's question about, you know, why it's so -- a little different now, have you heard from some of your supporters? You know, you have some -- obviously (OFF-MIC) supporters who have expressed any alarm about what this might be doing to the campaign? OBAMA: No, look, the -- I mean, I don't think that it's that hard to figure out from if it was just a purely political perspective. You know, my reaction has more to do with what I want this campaign to be about and who I am. And I want to make certain that people understand who I am. In some ways, what Reverend Wright said yesterday directly contradicts everything that I have done during my life. It contradicts how I was raised and the setting in which I was raised. It contradicts my decisions to pursue a career of public service. It contradicts the issues that I have worked on politically. It contradicts what I have said in my books. It contradicts what I said in my convention speech in 2004. It contradicts my announcement. It contradicts everything that I have been saying on this campaign trail. And, you know, what I tried to do in Philadelphia was to provide a context and to lift up some of the contradictions and complexities of race in America, of which, you know, Reverend Wright is a part and we're all a part, and try to make something constructive out of it. But there wasn't anything constructive out of yesterday. All it was, was a bunch of rants that -- that aren't grounded in truth. And, you know, I can't construct something positive out of that. I can understand it. I -- you know, the -- you know, people do all sorts of things. And, as I said before, I continue to believe that Reverend Wright has been a leader in the South Side. I think that the church he built is outstanding. I think that he has preached in the past some wonderful sermons. He provided valuable contributions to my family. But, at a certain point, if what somebody says contradicts what you believe so fundamentally, and then he questions whether or not you believe it in front of the National Press Club, then that's enough. That's a show of disrespect to me. It's a -- it is also, I think, an insult to what we have been trying to do in this campaign. QUESTION: Senator, did you discuss with your wife (OFF-MIC) Reverend Wright's performance (OFF-MIC) OBAMA: Yes. No, she -- she was similarly angered. Joe? QUESTION: Reverend Wright said that it was not an attack on him, but an attack on the black church. First of all, do you agree with that? And, second -- second of all, the strain of theology that he preached, black liberation theology, you explained something about the anger that feeds some of the sentiments in the church in Philadelphia. How important a strain is liberation theology in the black church? And why did you choose to attend a church that preached that? OBAMA: Well, first of all, in terms of liberation theology, I'm not a theologian. So, I think, to some theologians, there might be some well-worked-out theory of what constitutes liberation theology vs. non-liberation theology. I went to church and listened to sermons. And, in the sermons that I heard -- and this is true, I do think, across the board in many black churches -- there is an emphasis on the importance of social struggle, the importance of striving for equality and justice and fairness, a social gospel. So, I think a lot of people would rather use -- rather than using a fancy word like that, simply talk about preaching the social gospel. And that -- there's nothing particularly odd about that. Dr. King obviously was the most prominent example of that kind of preaching. But what I do think can happen -- and I didn't see this as a member of the church, but I saw it yesterday -- is when you start focusing so much on the plight of the historically oppressed, that you lose sight of what we have in common, that it overrides everything else, that we're not concerned about the struggles of others, because we're looking at things only through a particular lens, then it doesn't describe properly what I believe, in the power of faith to overcome, but also to bring people together. Now, you had a first question, Joe, that I don't remember. QUESTION: Do you think (OFF-MIC) OBAMA: Do I think -- I -- you know, the -- I did not -- I did not view the initial round of sound bites that triggered this controversy as an attack on the black church. I viewed it as a simplification of who he was, a caricature of who he was, and, you know, more than anything, something that piqued a lot of political interest. I didn't see it as a view -- as an attack on the black church. I mean, probably, the only time -- the aspect of it that probably had to do with specifically the black church is the fact that some people were surprised when he was shouting. I mean, that is just a black church tradition. And, so, I think some people interpreted that somehow as, well, wow, he's really -- he's hollering. And black preachers holler and whoop. So, that, I think, showed sort of a cultural gap in America. You know, the sad thing is -- is that, although the sound bites I, as I stated, I think, created a caricature of him. And when he was in that Moyers interview, even though there were some things that continued to be offensive, at least there was some sense of rounding out the edges. Yesterday, I think he caricatured himself. And that was -- as I said, that made me angry, but also made me sad. Richard. QUESTION: You talked about giving him the benefit of the doubt before, especially, I guess, in the Philadelphia speech, and trying to create something positive about that. OBAMA: Right. QUESTION: Did you consult with him before the speech or talk to him after the speech in Philadelphia to get his reaction (OFF-MIC) OBAMA: You know, I tried to talk to him before the speech in Philadelphia, wasn't able to reach him because he was on a -- he was on a cruise. He had just stepped down from the pulpit. When he got back, I did speak to him. And I -- the -- you know, I would prefer not to share sort of private conversations between me and him. I will talk to him perhaps some day in the future. But what I can say is that I was very clear that what he had said in those particular snippets I found objectionable and offensive. And that the intention of the speech was to provide context for them, but not excuse them, because I found them inexcusable. So... QUESTION: (INAUDIBLE). OBAMA: Yes, go ahead. QUESTION: (INAUDIBLE) on Sunday you were asked whether or not (INAUDIBLE). OBAMA: There's been great damage. You know, I -- it may have been unintentional on his part, but, you know, I do not see that relationship being the same after this. Now, to some degree -- you know, I know that one thing, that he said was true was that he wasn't -- you know, he was never my quote, unquote spiritual adviser, he was never my spiritual mentor. He was -- he was my pastor. And so to some extent, how, you know, the press characterized, in the past, that relationship, I think, wasn't accurate. But he was somebody who was my pastor and married Michelle and I and baptized my children and prayed with us at -- when we announced this race. And so -- and so I'm disappointed. QUESTION: Thank you. OBAMA: All, right? Thank you, guys. Appreciate it. LEMON: All right. So you heard it -- Senator Barack Obama defending himself, so to speak, against the Reverend Jeremiah Wright and many of the allegations and -- accusations is probably a better word -- that he made about his relationship, I should say, with Barack Obama. And the senator there distancing himself from what he calls Reverend Jeremiah Wright's caricature of himself in his antics yesterday and over the weekend. Let's bring in Candy Crowley, who was in the room -- Candy, I heard several people say this back in March -- and since this has happened again, since the Reverend Jeremiah Wright has resurfaced, that Barack Obama missed the moment in March to completely distance himself from the reverend and had he done, that we would not be going through this now. CANDY CROWLEY, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT: Yes. I mean had he said -- had he been as strong and as angry as he seemed when this first came up, then it probably -- you're right, we would have said well, he's already dismissed him. What -- and he talked about this today, to some extent, saying, you know, I tried when he gave the speech on race. I tried to put it in perspective. And I think, to a certain extent, what we're seeing is a little bit of a conflict of the personal versus the context of the political. And, you know, we talked about why, in fact, yesterday he seemed, you know -- he basically came out and said well, Reverend Wright doesn't speak for me and I don't speak for him. And today he was so much more forceful. And he said well, I hadn't said what he -- you know what he -- I hadn't heard what he had said. He repeated the things that I'd already denounced. And to come out and repeat them again -- and then -- and this really seemed to get him angry -- for Reverend Wright to suggest that Obama -- that he didn't -- that he, Obama, didn't mean what he said... LEMON: OK... CROWLEY: And so that disrespects me. LEMON: Well, Candy, listen, I think this was you. Was that you asking the questions about the superdelegates? CROWLEY: Yes. LEMON: That was your voice. OK. Your question about the superdelegates, should they be alarmed -- and then, you know, Hillary Clinton's campaign, her whole thing, her whole argument lately has been well, he may be leading in the popular vote -- even though she's saying she's leading because she's counting Michigan and Florida. He may be leading in that, but he's not electable. He can't get the people behind him -- the Democrats who are important for Democrats to win the general election. When you questioned him about that, what was his response? What did you think of that? CROWLEY: Well, I mean, his response, actually, was to turn it back to listen, this was my reaction to this and people need to know who I am. He said I don't think you need to be a genius to understand the politics of this and but then turned it right back to this is how I am reacting to what I saw. But the fact of the matter is you're exactly right, that Hillary Clinton has been -- both privately and a little more tactfully publicly -- saying that Barack Obama is unelectable. And one of the reasons, she says, is that he's an unknown -- who knows what else is out there? LEMON: That he hasn't been vetted yet. And this is the whole reason she's saying she's staying in, because who knows what's going to come up. CROWLEY: Exactly. LEMON: And, ultimately, she doesn't believe that he can be elected. CROWLEY: Right. And, as you know, they have been talking about the blue collar vote and how he hasn't been able to get the blue collar vote. And, of course, the assumption here is that Reverend Wright and the things he's been saying are particularly anathema to blue collar workers. I mean there is, as you know, a race component to this. And the suggestion is that somehow the blue collar workers are not coming to Obama and in some ways will be turned off by Reverend Wright in a way that other groups have not been. LEMON: Yes. And the race component that -- you know, people may not say it, but I'll say it here, is that an African-American man who is a pastor, in some sense, might have the power to unhinge the election of the possible first viable candidate -- African-American candidate for the highest office in the land. So it's very interesting what's happening right before our very eyes. Candy Crowley, I'm sure you'll agree. CROWLEY: Absolutely. I mean, there is a lot going on here, a lot of dynamics -- how are the other campaigns going to handle this. We saw Hillary Clinton saying yesterday well, you know, I'm very saddened to see that the Republican Party is making Reverend Wright's comments an issue. LEMON: Yes. CROWLEY: She, of course, said in Ohio that she wouldn't have stayed in that church. Interesting today that there also was some indication from Obama that he didn't know about his relationship with the church, that, you know, he said I don't want to go there and be a spectacle. LEMON: Right. CROWLEY: I don't go to church to be a spectacle. LEMON: Right. CROWLEY: So there is so much going on here at the political and the personal and the philosophical level, it's just -- as always, an election the likes of which we have not seen before. LEMON: Candy Crowley, thank you so much. We'll see you a little bit later on in "THE SITUATION ROOM". Candy, thanks again. CROWLEY: Thanks, Don. LONG: Coming up, we will continue to hear from Reverend Wright. We're going to replay some of the comments and remind you of the comments that the reverend made yesterday before the National Press Club in Washington. And then, also, we'll speak with CNN contributor Roland Martin and get his perspective on all of this. Also, a powerful force of nature zigzags across Virginia. We have stories of survival from the disaster zone, coming up in THE NEWSROOM. (COMMERCIAL BREAK) LONG: Let's get in the time for you. It is 3:40 in the afternoon Eastern. And here's a look at some of the stories we're working on for you in THE NEWSROOM today. Buildings and homes are shredded in Southeastern Virginia, where people are still reeling from that string of tornadoes. More than 200 people injured, but no deaths have been reported. The governor has declared a state of emergency. DNA tests confirm, in Austria, the worst. The results show Josef Fritzl did father at least six children with his daughter. He allegedly kept her locked in the cellar for 24 years. And he was in court today. Tight security in Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh City today for the Olympic Torch. Earlier in Hanoi, police took several anti-China protesters into custody for displaying a banner that said "Boycott the Beijing Olympics". LEMON: All right, and, of course, the big story here today in the CNN NEWSROOM, Barack Obama makes a big move away from his former pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Just a short time ago in North Carolina, Obama said he was outraged by Wright's comments yesterday at the National Press Club in Washington. Among other things, Wright said attacks on his racially charged sermons were actually an attack on the black church. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) OBAMA: It is antithetical to our campaign. It is antithetical to what I am about. It is not what I think America stands for. And I want to be very clear that, moving forward, Reverend Wright does not speak for me. He does not speak for our campaign. I cannot prevent him from continuing to make these outrageous remarks. But what I do want him to be very clear about, as well as all of you and the American people, is that when I say I find these comments appalling, I mean it. It contradicts everything that I'm about and who I am. (END VIDEO CLIP) LEMON: All right. Joining us now from Chicago, CNN contributor Roland Martin. Roland, thank you so much for racing in here to talk to us. We appreciate it. In my introduction just before that sound bite, I said he distanced himself. And not to be flippant, that was a Heisman. He was saying, you know what, I'm pretty much done with you. ROLAND MARTIN, CNN CONTRIBUTOR: Yes. And that was the unfortunate thing. I mean, I think, Don, the personal side is really important here. And you sort of touched on it with Candy. Obama tried everything he could to maintain the relationship, to still provide Reverend Wright a sense of dignity with his previous comments. But it really was yesterday. I don't -- I'm telling you right now -- you know, I've talked with a lot of folks in the Obama campaign. They were very worried about the Bill Moyers interview. But there was really a great reaction to it. So it really went over well Friday. Some were bothered by Sunday, but it wasn't too bad. Yesterday, though, that's what really ticked them off. And what I got from the campaign, also, is that this was not a campaign decision. This wasn't a matter of sitting with advisers, talking to fundraisers. This was Obama saying no, I am going to do this because this ticked me off. This hurt me and I'm going to stand out here and say it. Obviously, political, you know, ramifications there, as well. But he was personally offended by what he saw yesterday. And for him to call it a performance, that tells you how he felt. LEMON: OK. Remember the whole chickens coming home to roost thing, that garnered so much attention, played off of the Internet and a sermon that the Reverend Jeremiah Wright had some time ago. MARTIN: Yes, well, it was the 9/11 sermon, yes. LEMON: Yes. OK. So then he also referred to that again yesterday at the National Press Club. Let's take a listen to Barack Obama and we'll talk about Barack Obama's response just a short time ago. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) REV. JEREMIAH WRIGHT, SENATOR BARACK OBAMA'S FORMER PASTOR: Jesus said do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you. Those are biblical principals, not Jeremiah Wright bombastic, divisive principles. (END VIDEO CLIP) LEMON: OK. So that was yesterday, him saying that was biblical principles. Barack Obama, again today, saying, you know what, I think his -- his -- what he said during the press conference was that you can't be so focused on the plight of one group of people and not focus on or give attention to what we all have in common. And it seems that, in his estimation, that that's what the Reverend Jeremiah Wright had done in all of this. MARTIN: Well, I don't know if that particular comment goes with that particular sound bite. You know, but, again, I think what Obama is saying that the message of a pastor should be one where he's talking about uplifting. You know, look, pastors, whether we like it or not, do speak to ills they see, whether it's war, whether it's terrorism, whether it's poverty. But the problem, also, yesterday really was a matter of tone. It was actions. It was -- it was just his whole attitude. I mean, look, today's "New York Post" has a sign of -- has a photo of Reverend Wright, you know, sort of looking like this here, which for those of us, you know, in black fraternities know that's the sign of Omega Psi Phi. LEMON: Right. MARTIN: He's a member. LEMON: Right. MARTIN: And so, if you're a theological scholar, you take the high road. You go to the National Press Club. You're there to present a different sort of view, a different perspective. In many ways, Reverend Wright yesterday lowered himself versus showing exactly who he is, in terms of raising himself. LEMON: Yes. MARTIN: That's really what the issue is. And look, we dealt -- and a lot of people, a lot of columnists, a number of people on talk shows were really bothered by the tone and the actions of Wright, not just the words. LEMON: And he was flippant. And didn't seem contrite at all. MARTIN: Right. LEMON: Let me read this. And this is -- there have been a lot of editorials and a lot of things written about this week and about his performance yesterday. This one, particularly, is an op-ed column from Bob Herbert. And here's what he says. He says: "The question that cries out for answer from Mr. Wright is why -- if he is so passionately committed to liberating and empowering blacks -- does he seem so insistent on wrecking the campaign of the only African-American ever to have had a legitimate shot at the presidency?" And many people are going to read it -- are going to read it this way, especially among urban radio and black writers are going to say a black man destroying the possibility or the campaign of another black man. MARTIN: Well, obviously, and again -- look, I agree that Reverend Wright should have defended himself, defended his church. But the question is not do you speak, it's a matter of when you speak and how you speak. I believe, Don -- there's no doubt in my mind that if the Bill Moyers interview was left to stand and -- or even Sunday, and those were the clips that we referred to, we would not be having this conversation. LEMON: Yes. MARTIN: And if you really listened to what Obama said, he kept referencing yesterday. Yesterday. LEMON: Yesterday. MARTIN: Yesterday at the Press Club. LEMON: He even said Bill Moyers was a more rounded interview. He said that. He said that was a rounded interview, yes. MARTIN: Precisely. And that tells you that it was the events on yesterday that actually caused what happened today. LEMON: Yes. OK, Roland... MARTIN: And that's -- look, guys like me, the same thing. That's what it boils down to. LEMON: Hey, Roland, we've got to... MARTIN: He should not have done it. He was advised against it and he did it and it failed. LEMON: We've got to run. All right, thank you, sir, again. We appreciate your running in here to offer some perspective on this. MARTIN: Thanks, Don. LEMON: Roland Martin, CNN contributor. And, of course, all the latest campaign news is available right at your fingertips. Just go to CNNPolitics.com. We also have analysis from the best political team on television. It is all there, CNNPolitics.com. LONG: A powerful force of nature zigzagging across Virginia -- was it an EF3 or an EF4? Well, while we wait for official word, we're going to find out more about the destruction in that community in Virginia. (COMMERCIAL BREAK) LONG: About 23 hours ago now, this is what was heading for Suffolk, Virginia. And then minutes later, neighborhoods and shopping centers would be smashed. About 200 people would be injured. Some live pictures right now from our affiliate, WAVY, in that community, showing the ground right there, obviously. But what we're most focusing on right now is the governor, Tim Kaine. He earlier declared a statewide emergency and now is touring the damage, trying to get a better perspective on just how bad that storm was and just how many people have been affected. So as we hear from the governor today, of course, we'll share his comments with you a little bit later. But right now, let's get to CNN's Rob Marciano, who is reporting from Virginia. (BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) ROB MARCIANO, AMS METEOROLOGIST (on-camera): Residents here in Southeast Virginia trying to cope after three tornadoes tore through this part of the state yesterday. Here in Suffolk, a very strong tornado -- probably the strongest one, around 4:30 or 5:00, tore through this what was a brand new strip mall. About 45 miles an hour, likely winds of well over 120, just barreled right through there, gutting the whole thing, taking cars in the parking lot, flipping them around and twisting them like toys, pulverizing their windshields and piling them on top of each other, in some cases like this, just flipping it on its roof. Then the thing made like a right turn and headed right toward a residential area. There's been over 140 homes that have been damaged or completely destroyed by these twisters across the state, 200 injuries. And, miraculously, after about 50 percent of the homes being searched, there is zero fatalities. Researchers and rescue workers hope to have the search done by nightfall. And they certainly hope that that number -- zero fatalities -- will hold true when it's done. Rob Marciano, CNN, Suffolk, Virginia. (END VIDEOTAPE) LONG: As Rob was just pointing out, cars tossed like toys, homes flattened. Let's bring in meteorologist Chad Myers. Chad, just how powerful was that storm? CHAD MYERS, AMS METEOROLOGIST: Well, we don't know. But some of the pictures -- and I've lived in Oklahoma and have been doing some -- have been doing weather a long time. I would say we're still looking at probably a strong EF3 to a weak EF4, which would still be in the old category three, an F3, somewhere between 160 to 180 miles per hour. there could have been 200 mile per hour winds in this storm, but it didn't look ever wide enough to maybe get to that point. I did see multiple vortices at one point in time, which means there were actually more than one suction spot on the ground spinning around -- tornadoes actually spinning around other tornadoes, and then one big funnel in the middle. From our affiliate, WAVY, these are some of the hardest hit areas. Now, this is just to northwest of downtown Suffolk. And it moved right through a community -- a little bit of lake activity in there. People had boats behind their houses and things like this. But this right there, that's probably F2 damage. That would be the fringe of the tornado itself. But some of these houses don't exist anymore. All you literally see are the concrete slabs that they used to sit in and sit on. And so that was where I'm thinking probably the F4 damage would be coming in. So we'll see. They're going to get out there and look at it. But somewhere -- the numbers are going to range from 150 to 200. We'll just see what the upper -- the number that I'm concerned about and worried about is zero -- and that's the number of fatalities. And I still can't believe it. LONG: Yes. And let's hope that does hold true. MYERS: Yeas. LONG: But about 200 people injured. Chad, thank you. MYERS: You're welcome. LEMON: What do you think, it's going to be a very busy day in "THE SITUATION ROOM," do you think? LONG: Just a hunch, yes. LEMON: Yes. LONG: I think it is going to be. Let's check in with Wolf Blitzer. A busy day on tap, I imagine. WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR: Very busy, guys. Fresh off his meeting with the militant group Hamas, I'll be speaking with the former president of the United States, Jimmy Carter. And we'll talk about his decision to go ahead and meet with Hamas. And I'll ask him if he's willing to meet with other terrorist leaders, including Al Qaeda. Jimmy Carter is here in "THE SITUATION ROOM". Also, President Bush accusing Congress of dragging its feet on the stalled U.S. economy. The Democrats fire back. We're going to tell you what they're saying. And Barack Obama says he's "outraged" -- outraged at some of his former pastor's comments. We're going to tell you how this latest controversy could affect Obama's chances for the nomination. All that, guys, and a lot more, coming up right here in "THE SITUATION ROOM". LONG: Thank you, Wolf. LEMON: All right, thank you, sir. A spectacular crash we want to tell you about on a winding racetrack in Italy. You'll probably have the same reaction these drivers did off track in the CNN NEWSROOM. (COMMERCIAL BREAK) LEMON: All right. Here's a picture that caught our attention here in the CNN NEWSROOM and has been garnering a lot of attention. A Formula One driver off-track in Italy and caught on camera. In turn one, Stefan Artelli (ph) spun out, then his car went airborne. He cart wheeled across the track. You can see how he barely missed that other car. Take a look at it again. Amazing, Artelli suffered only a broken ankle. And you can see that the other racers there were even as shocked by it as the lay people out just watching. It was an -- it was an amazing piece of video. LONG: He's lucky. LEMON: Yes, very lucky. LONG: OK. Yes. Well, coming up now on the closing bell, the Dow has been down, the NASDAQ has been up. A mixed day wrapping up. LEMON: Yes. Susan Lisovicz is going to lay it out all for us. Hey, Susan. (STOCK MARKET REPORT) LEMON: Have a good one Susan, thank you. LONG: We'll talk to you tomorrow. Now to go to Washington and Wolf Blitzer.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
The origins of the name Harrison are with the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. The name is derived from the personal name Henry. The personal name Henry arrived in England after the Norman Conquest of 1066, when William the Conqueror won the Battle of Hastings, killing King Harold, the last Saxon King of England. It is of Germanic origin, and arrived with the wave of immigration that followed King William into England from continental Europe. The surname Harrison is derived from a diminutive form of the name, Harry. The name means "the son of Henry."
The surname Harrison was first found in Lancashire where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
The first dictionaries that appeared in the last few hundred years did much to standardize the English language. Before that time, spelling variations in names were a common occurrence. The language was changing, incorporating pieces of other languages, and the spelling of names changed with it. Harrison has been spelled many different ways, including Harrison, Harryson, Harieson and others.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Harrison research. Another 247 words (18 lines of text) covering the years 1590, 1669, 1640, 1669, 1579, 1656, 1583, 1655, 1621, 1640, 1606, 1660, 1685, 1713, 1797 and are included under the topic Early Harrison History in all our PDF Extended History products.
Another 239 words (17 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Harrison Notables in all our PDF Extended History products.
Some of the Harrison family moved to Ireland, but this topic is not covered in this excerpt. Another 147 words (10 lines of text) about their life in Ireland is included in all our PDF Extended History products.
Thousands of English families in this era began to emigrate the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland. Research into passenger and immigration lists has revealed some of the very first Harrisons to arrive in North America:
Harrison Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Harrison Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Harrison Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Harrison Settlers in United States in the 20th Century
Harrison Settlers in Canada in the 18th Century
Harrison Settlers in Canada in the 19th Century
Harrison Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century
Harrison Settlers in New Zealand in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Vincit qui patitur
Motto Translation: He conquers who endures.
The Harrison Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Harrison Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

Lewis was 'on it', exploring the limits of the car, and that was good to see.
I know we shouldn't extrapolate from Test Times, but on this evidence, he's going to be there or there abouts.

It would be a very very entertaining since the economic model of col is better suited for this kind of game than that of BtS.
Also the concept of the motherland is very much appropriate.
I think there was a mod called Song of the Moon which already did a lot of the needed graphics for a lunar colonization mod.
There would be some problems like the fact that there are no
natives on Mars or the Moon. But perhaps this could be ameliorated by having more civs compete?
Would the colonization of an extrasolar planet which would have "natives" be a better project?

Octomom's Fertility Doctor to Lose His Medical LicenseMolly Thornberg
Octomom, Nadya Suleman's fertility doctor – Dr. Michael Kamrava will lose his license to practice medicine as of July 1. No more implanting crazy numbers of embryos for you Dr. Kamrava!
Dr. Kamarava implanted Nadya with 12 embryos three years ago. Of the 12 embryos 8 survived, infamously giving Suleman the title Octomom.
At the time of implanting, Nadya was a 33-year old unemployed single mother of 6. Last year Dr. Kamarava apologized for implanting her rather then sending Suleman to get a mental health evaluation.
The board found that Kamrava "did not exercise sound judgment" in treating Suleman and two other patients a 48-year-old who had complications after becoming pregnant with quadruplets and a 42-year-old who contracted ovarian cancer after fertility treatments.
The board found that Kamrava "committed gross negligence, repeated negligent acts, and incompetence."
Kamrava's attorneys had argued that Suleman could have terminated some of the fetuses, that the negative publicity surrounding the Octomom case is a sufficient deterrent, and that Kamrava had learned his lesson. Source: people.com
How Many Embryos is Too Many to Implant?

Current data shows that young adults with a bachelor's degree earn an astonishing 55% more than young adults with only a high school diploma. College attendance is furthermore associated with higher levels of civic engagement, as well as moral, emotional, and aesthetic development.
Unfortunately, only 23 of every 100 ninth-grade students nationwide earn a college degree within five years of high school graduation; in Chicago, only 6 do.
By offering a mix of programs and services designed to reach every student and family — from one-on-one student meetings, to financial aid counseling, academic advising, life skills training, mentoring, college guidance, and more — KIPP Through College provides KIPP Chicago Schools alumni with the tools for success in high school, college, and the competitive world beyond.
The KIPP Through College team is committed to ensuring that all KIPP alumni have the tools and support needed to access and attain a college degree.
The KIPP College Account Program:
The KIPP College Account program (KCA) is a joint college savings initiative between 5 KIPP regions (D.C., Chicago, the Bay Area, New York and Houston), the KIPP Foundation, the United Negro College Fund, and the Citi Foundation. The program began in the Fall of 2010 and since then 5,171 student accounts have been opened.
Students and families can make deposits to their accounts in a number of different ways: at a Citibank Branch, by mail, through online bill-pay and direct deposit.

I'm about to start developing a large-scale system and I'm struggling with which direction to proceed. I've done plenty of Java web apps before and I have plenty of experience with servlet containers and GWT and some experience with Spring. The problem is most of my webapps have been thrown together just to be a proof of concept and what I'm struggling with is what set of frameworks to use. I need to have both a browser based application as well as a web service designed to support access from mobile devices (Android and iPhone for now). Ideally, I'd like to design this system in such a way that I don't end up rewriting all of my servlets for each client (browser and phone) although I don't mind having some small checks in there to properly format the data.
In addition, although I'm the only developer now, that won't necessarily be the case down the road and I'd like to design something that scales well both with regards to traffic and number of developers (isn't just a nightmare to maintain).
So where I am now is planning on using GWT to design the browser-based interface but I'm struggling with how to reuse that code with to present the interface (most likely xml) for the mobile devices. Using GWT RPC would, I think, make it relatively easy to do all of the AJAX in the browser, but might make generating xml for the mobile phones difficult. In addition, I like the idea of using something like Hibernate for persistence and Spring Security to secure the whole thing. Again, I'm not sure how well those will cooperate with GWT (I think Hibernate should be fine...)
There's obviously a lot more to this than I've presented here, but I've tried to give you the 5-minute overview. I'm a bit stumped and was wondering if anybody in the community had any experience starting from this place. Does what I'm trying to do make sense? Is it realistic? I have no doubt I can make all of these frameworks speak the same language, I'm just wondering if it's worth my time to fight with them. Also, am I missing a framework that would be really beneficial?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the relatively broad question...

The Revolution Is Here, and the Revolution Will Be Mobilized
"The revolution will not be televised."
With those simple words, great soul and jazz poet Gil Scott-Heron reminded us that things are changing and changing fast. As he once explained, "That song was about your mind. You have to change your mind before you change the way you live and the way you move…The thing that's going to change people will be something that no one will ever be able to capture on film. It will just be something you see and all of a sudden you realize 'I'm on the wrong page.'"
Those who are successful in business today never find themselves on the wrong page. They reject the status quo and seek perfection. Mobile is taking over and leaving those who ignore it to rue the day they said no to BYOD. In my days at Salesforce.com, I saw more exploding bar charts explaining this trend than Al Gore used at his last TED Talk. This is not a disputable fact. Mobile IS the revolution, and Kinvey moves fast enough to harness it.
The debate rages over how to best allow the Enterprise to tap into the mobile revolution and harness it for their employees. While walled gardens exist, no one has been able to burrow and tunnel effectively enough to link them. Herein lies my reason for joining Kinvey. As a set of talented individuals and a company, they get it. They see the possibilities. Kinvey has the answers.
As a salesperson for most of my career, I join Kinvey knowing that to be successful, I should be able to access information about my company or customer wherever I am, at a second's notice. Though I'd like to task my brain with that job, the sheer volume of information is simply beyond one human's capacity. Mobile technology vaporizes that limitation. I don't need to take the time to fire up the laptop and enable my 3G card whenever an "important" piece of information is needed. I shouldn't have to wade through a clunky app just to find a customer's phone number or billing history. I should have it at my fingertips, and Kinvey will make that possible.
So as I embark on this great adventure, I re-borrow that famous line, since hijacked and repurposed by the great rapper Common Sense in a more applicable lyric: "The revolution will not be televised. The revolution is here."
If I might be so bold as to make it my own, I'd say: "The revolution is here, and the revolution will be mobilized."

Gliomas are the most common, and most fatal, primary brain tumors. Every year, about 24,000 new cases of glioma are diagnosed in the US, and about 18,000 of those people die within a year. The poor prognosis is because these cancers grow by invading the surrounding brain, rendering complete surgical removal possible only in few patients. As such, the development of a successful treatment requires devising means of eliminating every remaining invasive tumor cell left behind after surgery, at the same time protecting the functioning surrounding brain.
Our proposal addresses this great unmet medical need, and seeds a long-term goal, which is to discover novel therapeutics to treat the invasive brain cancer cell. This application is based on previous exciting studies by us and others, which has demonstrated that in animal models, neural stem cells (NSCs) move specifically towards invasive brain cancer cells and track down pockets of tumors within the brain. Importantly, NSCs can be used to deliver therapeutic agents directly to tumor cells, with significant therapeutic benefit in animals. Here, our goal is to advance the field of brain cancer stem cell therapy by establishing novel approaches to examine the mechanisms how NSCs move, or migrate, toward glioma. We expect this knowledge to translate into refinement of the processes used to generate tumor-tropic stem cells (=stem cells that specifically track tumor cells), so that this can be accomplished in a clinically practicable fashion. Specifically, the proposed studies will contribute to the development of stem cell therapy in two ways. First, we will establish rigorous "motility assays", which are laboratory tests that will facilitate an important comparison of the migratory capabilities of NSCs derived by two well-publicized but heretofore never compared routes: NSCs derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) vs. NSCs isolated directly from the central nervous system. Thus, although NSC migration is an absolute requirement for the use and further development of NSCs in stem cell therapy, migratory capabilities of different NSCs are currently unknown. Second, rigorous motility tests are needed for the analysis of the detailed mechanisms (the inner workings) how NSCs move towards glioma. We will subsequently utilize various genetic, molecular and cell biological means to study these mechanisms in detail. Our goal is to identify and characterize the genes and proteins that regulate the process of NSC movement towards gliomas. We expect our knowledge on the molecular mechanisms how stem cells track infiltrating tumor cells to allow further refinement of this therapeutic modality, because specific stem cell populations could be purified or genetically engineered on the basis of enhanced motility characteristics, thereby improving the efficiency of this treatment strategy for glioma.
Each year more than 200,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with a primary or metastatic brain tumor; primary brain tumors comprise approximately 40,0000 of these diagnoses. Brain tumors are the leading cause of solid tumor cancer death in children under the age of 20, and they are the second leading cause of cancer death in male adults ages 20-29. In California alone, 1,500 people die of brain cancers annually. Due to the high mortality rate, malignant brain cancer remains the single most costly and morbid cancer per capita in the United States, and unfortunately, the overall prognosis of brain cancer patients has remained virtually unchanged over the past 20 years. Thus, there is a great unmet medical need to provide novel and more effective treatment strategies to the people affected by this disease.
Based on animal studies, human ES cell-derived neural stem cells represent an important step forward that may prove critical in the ultimate clinical implementation of a new treatment for glioma, the most common form of brain cancer. Our proposed studies in this application, once completed, are expected to greatly accelerate the path towards the generation and engineering of clinically useful stem cell therapies for this disease. If we are successful in this goal, our studies are anticipated to significantly reduce the human and economic costs of brain cancer in California and elsewhere, and also make adjuvant brain cancer therapy more readily available to the underserved population. In parallel, we expect that a successful completion of these studies will greatly invigorate stem cell therapy studies for other cancers, as well. This could open up unprecedented new opportunities for future oncology applications, and attract scientists from other states to California, all this having a positive effect on our State. Finally, the expansion of biotechnology industry (jobs, capital investments) that translates the scientific discoveries made under the auspices of CIRM to practical applications is also expected to have a significant positive economic impact on California.

Shapes and Sizes
Shapes and Sizes
e may tire of cheeky band names and underage album art before we tire of the music behind them, but let's not let them overshadow it. Vancouver's Shapes and Sizes do indeed have crayola'd liner notes and an overarching hat-drawn moniker, but let them serve as an opportunity for an equally bland observation: yes, you guessed it, the songs on this album come in all shapes and sizes. Not that it's easy to outline or quantify the breadth of styles they cover in ten tracks, but suffice it to say that even unique songs manage to sound like entire overtures unto themselves.
This album has a shelf life, but schizo opener "Island's Gone Bad" will never stop sounding like an ill-fated trip down memory lane with Andrew Bird and Fiery Furnaces. Nor will it stop feeling like a splash of cold water to the face the moment Caila Thompson-Hannant appears without warning. Sure, her arrival is preordained by a rhythmic 180-degree turn, and her lyrics ("I like eating fruit off of trees / When I'm with you") are dull, but her voice is the only bit of calm—and fun—in a tropical storm of saxophones, lost Blonde Redhead guitar tickles, and co-lead vocalist Rory Seydel's unhelpful backing vocals. Her presence on this early track is too flirtatious to be suggestive of her power elsewhere on the album, but somehow her vocals still belie each failed or less memorable experiment.
"Weekends at a Time" is so variegated that I was shocked to find that it was only four minutes long. The song's simultaneous rhythmic and melodic changes could easily be called the development, exposition, and recapitulation—tags usually reserved for dead composers. Thompson-Hannant is given free reign over obliging drums, electric guitars, a synthesizer, and a chorus of voices, of which she comprises the most resounding cords. The guitars pedal along for awhile, repeating the same riff but promising forward motion, only to conceal themselves in twinkling fret slides whose sole purpose is to echo the virtuosity of Thompson-Hannant's melody. A lover's quarrel is the subject, and "Go, no don't / Stay," the ambivalent gist. The song doesn't end with a symphonic fanfare, as it might have two hundred years ago, but with the gritty, unstructured, po-mo plucks of a guitar, which decompose into the short silence before the antithetical rhythmic precision of "I Am Cold," a slow-as-molasses Low tribute complete with haunting male/female harmonizing, and one of the album's finest tracks.
I couldn't imagine what was going to happen on tracks four through ten, or rather, I didn't want to. But when, on "Wilderness," Thompson-Hannant drains her voice of its substance and sings, "Kisses are our friends, my friend / And I know a lot about them," there's not much else to feel but disappointment. But the teetering power of "Goldenhead"—again, only steadied by Thompson-Hannant—is strong enough to make up for two or three duds, even if it lacks the instrumental thickness of the better tracks. The above average cuts settle down comfortably, each to its own niche: the exploratory, balladic duet "Boy, You Shouldn't Have" both subverts and respects the country twangs and second-person musings of early Wilco, and the winning, straight-and-narrow indie rock anthem "Oh No, Oh Boy" still manages to depart from the standards of this week's Coachella darling. But it's the straight-A songs with Thompson-Hannant at the helm that save this album from falling to the bottom of the slush pile labeled "cute album art."

It's singles time again.
With Woolworths going into administration perhaps its time to reflect on those early record-buying years, when this writer would trawl the Woolies bargain bin looking for deleted indie singles. Will future generations get as nostalgic about iTunes, we ponder? Sitting by the computer, patiently checking the available bandwidth…
With that in mind, here is a round up of the singles due out on December 8th, dedicated to the kind people at Woolworths. Can we have some free pick 'n' mix?
_ _ _
Single Of The Week
Neon Neon – 'Dream Cars'
Gruff Rhys must have an imagination deeper than a trench in the Pacific Ocean. From those murky depths emerged the Neon Neon project, a collaboration with the producer Boom Bip. Based around the life of playboy car engineer John DeLorean, their debut album 'Stainless Style' combined lyrics about catalytic convertors with sublime synths and infectious beats. 'Dream Cars' was a standout track on that album, and now gets a deserved single release. With one eye on the past and another on the future, Neon Neon sound completely unique. Challenging and thoughtful pop – just please make another album!
Also out today…
Cat Power – 'The Dark End of The Street'
When did Cat Power get so boring? Sure, I'm glad she's wrapped up her troubles, but when it results in music as pedestrian as this dearest Chan becomes easy to love but difficult to listen to. A version of the James Carr classic that sits uneasily alongside the emotional depth of the original, and of course Power's own back catalogue, this EP retains those honeyed tones but at no point do you feel challenged.
Kings Of Leon – 'Use Somebody'
The bearded Coldplay finally follow up 'Sex On Fire'. One of the year's biggest albums and fine achievement in its own right, 'Only By The Night' is fast becoming overly familiar. Piped out from stereos in every pub, café, club and passing vehicle in the land, it is almost impossible to escape the clutches of the Followills. But with anthemic singles such as this, we may just put up with them for a little longer.
Ladyhawke – 'My Delirium'
More filthy electro-pop from the Antipodean pixie. Ladyhawke's much discussed asperger's makes touring difficult, so it's just as well she has such a club friendly sound. As ever, this single is itchily catchy, but the real fun happens on the flipside – check out the Toddla T and Sugardaddy remixes. (Read our interview with Ladyhawke HERE)
The Futureheads – 'I Wouldn't Be Like This If You Were Here'
Trends may come and go, but The Futureheads remain. Their continuing success is one long middle finger salute to 679 Records, who dropped the group after a second album that didn't match the commercial performance of their hyped debut. Energetic perhaps, but this single lacks the infectious rebellion that runs through recent album 'This Is Not The World'.
The Bamboos – 'Amen Brother'
Possibly the most sampled drum break in history (1,000 drum 'n' bass producers can't be wrong) gets reworked by the Australian deep funk legends. Whilst there are no surprises here, this is a frenetic and faithful take on one of the most influential – and uncredited – recordings of the past 50 years.
Get Well Soon – 'Listen'
The German maverick Konstantin Gropper returns with a Christmas-themed EP. Tracks such as 'We Are Cannibal Corpse' suggest it won't be a merry Yule-time round his house, but this is another example of his wonderfully unique songwriting style.
Dead Kids – 'Into The Fire'
From the opening synth arpeggio to the final chord, 'Into The Fire' is one of the most striking debuts to come our way in a long time. Combining Iggy Pop-style snotty vocals with a frenzied backing this is set to rock indie dancefloors across the country. The guitars and drums don't so much duel as hack at each other's throats, battling towards submission just as the two-minute mark passes. Dead Kids have never sounded so alive.

Did a search and didn't find what I was looking for. Im sure this is normal but my front wheel makes a creaking noise when Im out of the saddle climbing or sprinting, any ideas? Thanks
oh, and its done this since day 1.
Did a search and didn't find what I was looking for. Im sure this is normal but my front wheel makes a creaking noise when Im out of the saddle climbing or sprinting, any ideas? Thanks
oh, and its done this since day 1.
might be the spokes, might not even be the wheel at all though
take all the bolts off the stem and grease them..that might be it
best and safest bet would bet to get one of your buddies to lend you their front wheel for couple minutes so you can spin around see if it goes away.
it it doesnt...might be the headset....im assuming you havent had it for that long, i would just take it back to the bike shop and let them figure out. stuff like that isnt that big of a deal
The front wheel flexes side to side under these conditions. You are probably hearing spokes rubbing against each other. A bit more tension in the spokes may improve it.
Ahh, you guys are great. It is only when I rock the bike side to side. I'll take her in to the shop, thanks a lot!
that bike comes with bontrager select wheels
front wheel is radially laced so spokes dont touch eachother. might still be the tension though
I had the same thing and it was loss handlebars.
I had a set of cheap skewers that squeaked and sprayed on some silicone spray to fix it. It squeaked everytime I jammed on the pedals

1. Dis-assemble front hub.
2. Remove cups from hub shell
3. thouroughyl clean all surfaces with degreaser then alcohol
4. Apply a liberal amount of red loctite into hub shell where cup fits in
5. Insert cup and reassemble hub with NO GREASE
6. Purpose of 5 is to set the cups in place
7. Wipe of excess loctite. If no loctite squirted out the sides you didnt use enough
8. Wait 24 hours. Disassemble. Re-assemple with grease.
My hub did that from the day I rode out the LBS door. The mechanic at the LBS gave me a 'song and dance'. I just kind of looked and him funny and walked out. I E-mailed the Trek/Bontrager tech department and they told about the problem and how to fix it. I already knew but wanted to hear it from them. Two years now on the fix and NO problems.

Like mother like daughter. That's what they commonly say. But Dr. Lourdes D. Servito, the Mom, will always say, she is proud that her daughter has become better than she is, in campus journalism.
KSS SELA Manager, Maria Dolour Servito-Navarra, the daughter who is a graduate of International Cultural Studies major in Communications and Journalism publicly acknowledges that her Mom was her coach, mentor, and trainor. While the Mom graduated a bachelor's degree in Journalism (Cum Laude) in a local university, the daughter graduated Magna Cum Laude in Brigham Young University Hawaii, U.S.A.
Last year, Maria Dolour lectured in Feature Writing at the Pangasinan National High School during the Division Campus Journalism Workshops in Lingayen, Pangasinan.
This time, ten years after graduating from high school, she was back to her Alma Mater, Mapandan National High School, Mapandan, Pangasinan as a resource person in Editorial Wiriting during the two-day District-Based Seminar Workshop in Campus Journalism, Aug. 27-28.
The seminar-workshop attended by some 100 elementary and high school student writers of Mapandan District was also a reunion of successful alumni of Mapandan NHS as the chosen lecturers: Maria Dolour, Editor Class '98, for editorial writing; Marlon Perado, Cartoonist Class '99; and Caesar Francis Calimlim, Editor Class 2000, with their former language teachers, Gloria Franco Soriano and Rowena Caberto Casta, now Head Teachers of Filipino and English Departments, respectively, as organizers of the seminar.
About seven years ago, the first principal of Mapandan NHS was no less than Dr. Servito who organized the first school publications in the aforementioned school; the Mapandan Star, and Ang Pandan. Dr. Servito is now the Principal IV of Calasiao Comprehensive National High School.

The Barbizon school (circa 1830–1870) is an art movement, which occurred in France in 19th century and was named after a village of Barbizon near the forest of Fontainebleau. The group of artists led by Theodore Rousseau rejected the traditional classical style of painting and aimed to convey the nature in more realistic manner. In 1824 the Salon de Paris exhibited works of John Constable, which influenced some younger artist by his rural scenes. The painters believed in inspiration, which could be drawn directly from nature and the main idea was to work in open air. Trying to convey the life how it is and represent its every aspect, from the awesome to the mundane and ordinary, they painted such subjects as the lives of farmers, gravediggers, woodsmen, poachers, and other workers.
The leaders of the Barbizon school were Georges Michel, Theodore Rousseau, Jean-Francois Miller, and Corot. Most of them were rejected by the Salon de Paris but nevertheless gave a way such movement as impressionism.

Each week, a current or former member of the Suns discusses topics away from the court.
Question: What is the "Super Bowl Sunday" event you are putting on (at 4 p.m. Sunday) at Let It Roll Bowl (8925 N. 12th St. in Phoenix)?
Answer: It is to benefit my foundation, HOOP2HEAL. It benefits kids who have had sports injuries and need surgery and can't afford treatment. We want to build a sports program where kids pay through education and hard work instead of the parents using their hard-earned dollars. It is a bowling event that will be Cardinals vs. Suns. We'll have Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Nash, Kurt Warner, Charles Barkley, Kerry Rhodes, Grant Hill, Bertrand Berry, Channing Frye, Hakim Warrick, Derek Ware and myself. We're going to have some fun.
Q: What made you start a foundation like that this year?
A: I just grew up in an era that sports didn't cost as much. Nothing against AAU and the team sports, but it's just really expensive. I want to do my part and get that back and help out someone who doesn't have the fortunate resources to participate and travel, as well as being able to get back on the field or the court when there's an injury.
Q: You had your own health scare with the heart attack in November. How have you been?
A: Everything is great. The whole thing was genetics. I got it from my parents and family history. Me being healthy, not being a drinker or smoker and staying in shape, that really saved me. No matter how good my health would've been, this would've occurred.
Q: Whose bowling shoe has been the hardest to arrange to get?
A: Channing Frye. He needs size 18s.
Q: What else will be available at the event for the public who buys a ticket to watch?
A: We will raffle off some signed footballs and basketballs and bowling pins and do pictures and autographs with the guys. Some players will stay and bowl with fans.
Q: Why did you pick bowling?
A: I grew up in a bowling alley. My mom was a good bowler, and we'd tag along with her. I was just trying to think of a sport. The Suns are in their home stretch and the Cardinals are training, so I didn't want to do anything too strenuous. Bowling was the least-athletic thing I could do to keep it in a sports environment. I really didn't want Charles (Barkley) on a golf course.
Q: Why did you recently leave your role as emcee for Suns home games?
A: It's been 10 years since I created that role. My whole objective was to try to get in with the organization, either on the basketball side or on the broadcasting side on the radio and TV. Those are my passions. After 10 years of asking (former CEO) Rick Welts to do something and not even asking for a salary increase, I couldn't keep asking why. In most corporations, after 10 years, you move up. They seemed like they weren't worried about my well-being or future. I told them at some point people are going to get tired of me yelling at them. I could've been 10 years into something else.
Q: Will you stay involved with Suns community-relations appearances?
A: They denied that. So that just made it easier on my decision. I think I'm one of the biggest community leaders they have to relate to kids or elders. I'm a great speaker and a great guy, and they didn't want my help for free.
