LAKELAND, FL (September 12, 2013) -- A fully signalized traffic signal will be installed at Bella Vista Street and US 98 (North Florida Avenue). The City of Lakeland's Department of Public Works will start the needed construction on September 9, 2013. The project is scheduled to take about one week to complete. Only one lane of traffic will be closed at any time in any direction. All work that requires lane closures will be done Monday – Friday between 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. The signal will incorporate a flashing yellow arrow for motorist making left hand turns. The flashing yellow arrow is a result of a national study conducted by the Federal Highway Administration, which demonstrated:
· The flashing yellow arrow is a safety measure to help prevent crashes.
· Moves more traffic through an intersection.
· Provides additional traffic management and flexibility.
· Provides a clear distinction so motorists know if they are protected from oncoming traffic.
The left hand turn lane on US 98 (North Florida Avenue) for both southbound and northbound traffic will feature the new flashing yellow arrow signal.
· A red arrow indicates traffic should stop and no left turns are allowed.
· A solid yellow arrow means prepare to stop or complete your left turn if you are in an intersection.
· A flashing yellow arrow means left hand turns are allowed but motorist need to yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. The oncoming traffic has a green light.
· A green arrow means go and it is safe to make a left hand turn. Oncoming traffic must stop.
The Florida Department of Transportation is installing the flashing yellow arrow signals at various locations throughout the state on a case-by-case basis. The Bella Vista Street and US 98 (North Florida Avenue) intersection will be the first in Lakeland to feature the new traffic signal.

Start Here! How VPN can change living abroad
For even the most adventurous spirit, day-to-day life in a foreign country can get tedious and exhausting. So, for those moments where you are just looking for a taste of home and want to curl up and watch a familiar movie or television show, VPN can be an invaluable luxury. VPN, at it's most basic level, has three primary features: IP forwarding, security and anonymity.
IP Forwarding
IP forwarding means that while you may live, work, or play in Europe or anywhere else in the world, you can assign your computer location to be in the United States. This is an excellent workaround for location based site blocking. A very common experience is going to an online streaming service like Netflix and realizing that you cannot view the content because your computer is showing outside of the United States. IP forwarding is a very handy work-around to content location restrictions. By appearing to be American based, you can then access whatever American content you would like. The same, of course, goes for the BBC outside of the UK.
VPN, by default, encrypts all of your traffic. This is especially great if you are using Wi-Fi. Phishers and hackers can't slip into your network and see all of your passwords. This feature, paired with the IP forwarding, is perfect if you still bank in the United States. Many banks firewalls won't let you access online banking from outside of the country. Even if they did, you would be pray to local hackers. Security freak or not, an extra firewall never hurt anyone, right?
Privacy and Anonymity
If you live in a country with a high level of government oversight, VPN will protect you from those prying eyes. Because your IP is hidden behind your VPN provider, there is no way to track your online activity back to your specific computer. In fact, if you are connecting to another country, it won't even look like you are physically where you are in the world! This also means that sites that are blocked by your host country will be available to you with this "hidden" IP address.
So, where do you start?
First, you have to have a high speed internet connection (DSL/fiber/cable/satellite). If your end goal is streaming video or music to a device like an AppleTV, SmartTV or Roku, you want at least 12MB from your ISP. There are tons of factors that can affect your speed over VPN, so getting the fastest connection available is recommended.
Second, you need to have a VPN service provider. There are several that are compatible with a Sabai VPN Router, which you will need if you want to stream to the devices mentioned above. On it's own, a VPN service will allow you to access American websites like Netflix, Hulu, ABC.com, NBC.com, Pandora, Spotify and more on your computer only. If you are a frequent Skype user, there is also the added benefit of being able to use the service "domestically" instead of internationally, saving you a little bit of money. (If you are still confused, our intro video might help.)
Third, to connect this VPN goodness to ALL of your network devices (tablet, laptop, gaming system, smart phone, streaming player, smart device, ereader, etc.) you will need a VPN Router. This specialized router extends your single VPN connection to any device on your network. Sabai Technology provides the easiest to setup and use and boasts advanced features such as dual gateway. A VPN Router is like the cherry on your VPN Sunday. Not only can you connect to the internet the same as when you are in America, but you can do it on any wireless device in your home!
Now you are on your way!
The three steps above are the basic setup for a wireless home VPN. Many customers appreciate being able to access this content for not only themselves, but their children who might be having trouble adjusting to a new culture. Being an expat is fun and exciting, but that doesn't mean that a little homesickness isn't normal. Now, you can enjoy home away from home!

Hey people I was wondering that since Jack Swagger returned with this new attitude, what if he went on to feud with Alberto del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania? Then at Wrestlemania he beats del Rio and suddenly....
"I'm here to show the world, I'm here to show the world!!"
Dolph Ziggler comes out with the Money in the Bank briefcase and cashes it in, winning it from Swagger. This could be a good way to restart their feud from before and it might be better this time with Swagger's new swagger(pun intended). The only possible downside to this that I could see is that one of them would have to turn face.

BALTIMORE, Md. – US Lacrosse announced Tuesday that Sarah Albrecht, head coach of the University of New Hampshire women's lacrosse team, has been named to the 18-player U.S. Women's National Team that will compete in the 2013 Federation of International Lacrosse (FIL) World Cup, July 11-20 in Oshawa, Ontario.
Albrecht, one of seven midfielders on the roster, was a member of the U.S. gold-medal team at the 2009 World Cup and was named to the FIL All-World Team in recognition of her outstanding play, which included 14 goals and three assists in seven games.
The 2013 team was selected from a 25-player U.S. women's national training team roster that was previously selected from a group of 38 players comprising the 2012-14 U.S. women's national team.
Team USA most recently competed at the Jan. 25-27 Champion Challenge, a US Lacrosse event in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., where it compiled a 3-0 record against Northwestern University, Syracuse University and the English women's national team.
Albrecht scored two goals, including the tally that gave the U.S. team the lead for good, in a 16-9 victory against Northwestern in the Champion Challenge finale. One day earlier, the first-year UNH head coach netted a team-high three goals in a 19-11 win against Syracuse.
Team USA will reconvene for an exhibition against Team Canada at the 2013 US Lacrosse Women's National Tournament, May 24-26 at Lehigh University. After two training camps in Baltimore (June 26-July 2) and Buffalo, N.Y. (July 5-7), the team will travel to Oshawa for the World Cup.
Albrecht will make her head coaching debut at the helm of the UNH Wildcats on Feb. 16 (11 a.m.) at Hofstra University. New Hampshire's home opener is Feb. 23 (1 p.m.) against the University of Massachusetts at Memorial Field.

High clouds in Juneau today (Tuesday) mostly obscured the roughly twice-a-century transit of Venus across the sun.
"If the sun was the size of a beach ball, Venus moving across the sun would be about the size of nickel," Marie Drake Planetarium Director of Programs Ken Fix says, describing what could have been seen from Juneau, if there were no clouds blocking out the sun. "So, you're actually going to be able to see it, even if you just use a filter and you don't look through a telescope."
Fix and other amateur astronomers from the planetarium were at Marine Park during most of the 7-hour transit, waiting for a break in the clouds. But alas, despite a few teases, the sun never made much of an appearance.
Venus actually comes between the Earth and the sun five times every eight years. But because their orbits are on different planes, Fix says Venus usually misses passing over the sun's disk as seen from Earth.
"Venus' orbit differs from ours by about three and a quarter degrees," he says. "And it's only when we lap each other, with Venus on the inside track on the same side of the sun, that we have the possibility of a transit. But we have to be on the same zero line reference to the sun. And that only happens every 105 or 113 years, depending on what part of the cycle we're in."
That means it won't happen again until December 2117. Maybe the sun will be out in Juneau by then.

Drummer's appearance at Ford Center a homecoming of sorts
Jeremy Spencer's heavy-metal journey began in Boonville, Ind.
EVANSVILLE - Some friends and former neighbors in Boonville, Ind., may still remember him as Jeremy Heyde, the kid who played snare drums in the Boonville High School Marching Band, but heavy metal fans around the world recognize the intensely tattooed drummer for Five Finger Death Punch by his stage name, Jeremy Spencer.
Twenty years after leaving the area to launch a career in music, Five Finger Death Punch's percussionist says he's excited to be able to beat his drums and crash his cymbals in the Ford Center on Tuesday with the headline act for the Trespass America Festival tour.
The band has played from coast to coast and beyond, with performances in Europe, Japan and Australia, but "I always wanted to play Roberts Stadium," Spencer said in a phone call from a rock festival in Cadott, Wis. The Ford Center "is the new Roberts Stadium," he said, "so I can't wait."
Spencer is the middle name given Jeremy Heyde 39 years ago, when he was born in Oakland City, Ind., he said. He was about 4 when his family moved to Boonville, where he fell in love with heavy metal rock. At 6, "I saw a Kiss record. I was just so enthralled, staring at the album cover."
The boy fixated on the drums and the drummer, Peter Criss, and asked for drums. His grandmother bought him "an $80 drum set from Sears," he said, "and I started banging away. As far as I was concerned, I was in Kiss."
He tried taking formal drum lessons when he was 13 or 14, he said, "but I struggled to read sheet music, and I think the teacher tried to make me learn an Eagles song. I never liked the Eagles — that just turned me off — so I just decided I'll figure it out myself. I would just listen to stuff and learn to play it by ear."
Spencer played snare drum in school from the sixth grade through high school. At 19, he left Indiana to live with a friend in Oceanside, Calif., where he hoped to get into the music business. Oceanside, "really wasn't a hotbed of music, but I didn't know that," he said. "I kind of blindly went out there and struggled around a few years and didn't find anything worthwhile."
He moved back to Franklin, Tenn., where his parents had moved to find work in the music business in nearby Nashville, and agreed to play with a country act his father had written some songs for.
"He was supposed to do some tour dates with Garth Brooks," Spencer said.
"I was drumming for him for a minute," he said, "but I just wasn't fulfilled. I wanted to do rock and I wanted to do metal."
He left Nashville to try California again. He played in several bands before answering guitarist Zoltan Bothary's advertisement for a heavy metal drummer to work on some demos.
"We got together and started hashing out some ideas and he and I started tracking a whole record before we even had the rest of the band that is Five Finger Death Punch."
The band took its name from a martial arts blow in the movie "Kill Bill 2," Spencer said. The movie featured a move called the Five Pointed Palm Exploding Heart Technique, but "that wouldn't look as cool on a T-shirt," said Spencer.
He changed his own last name "because the spelling's weird and everyone pronounces it wrong," he said. And he never had to worry about offending his parents with the change. That's because his immediate family are all artists who also have dropped "Heyde" for the same reason.
His father, a songwriter and more recently an author many in the area will remember as Gary Heyde, now lives in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, and writes as Austin Gary, a transposition of his first and middle names.
Spencer's sister acts and directs in Chicago as Rachel Rockwell, but Evansville audiences knew her as Natalie Rachel Heyde when she appeared in University of Evansville and community theater productions. And his mother, who appeared in lots of area stage productions as Glory Heyde, performs on Chicago stages as Glory Kissell, using her maiden name.
Heyde still has good memories of growing up Jeremy Heyde, playing in his school bands, however. He plans to give his current drum kit to the music department at Boonville High School when he replaces it.
Five Finger Death Punch played Evansville once before, in a 2008 appearance at Woody's, a small club that has since burned down.
"It was great," Spencer said. "It was packed, and I got to see some of my old friends."
Tuesday's performance, in the Tri-State's biggest arena, should offer a spectacular contrast to the Woody's show.
"Right now the band has the biggest stage show we've ever had and it's the biggest production we've ever had," Spencer said.
Size and spectacle aside, he's excited about playing to a hometown audience again.
"It's going to be really great to see a lot of my old friends. I can't wait."

Originally written on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 4/21/13
Rich Cimini of ESPN New York mentioned earlier in the week that WR Santonio Holmes is most likely entering his final season with the Jets. Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News agrees that Holmes is unlikely to be brought back given that he would make an $8.25 million base salary in 2014 and count $10.75 million against Jets' salary cap. Last year, the Jets guaranteed Holmes' 2013 salary by keeping him on their roster at the start of the 2012 league year, but would later approach him this offseason regarding a pay cut. Given that Holmes held a good amount of leverage in this situation, seeing as he already had $7.5 million of his salary guaranteed for the 2013 season, they only managed to reduce his salary by $3 million. Holmes, 29, is coming off of multiple surgeries to repair a Lisfranc fracture, so there are concerns relating to his overall effectiveness moving forward. With all things considered, it seems likely that the Jets will be looking for a future successor in the draft. The post 2013 Likely To Be Santonio Holmes Last Season With The Jets appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.

Cocoa prices near record high
Posted In: Food, Retail
Ivory Coast's incumbent leader Laurent Gdagbo has effectively nationalized the country's cocoa farms -- something chocolate lovers should be worried about.
Turmoil in the Ivory Coast could affect chocolate prices
Ivory Coast is the world's biggest producer of cocoa, the key ingredient for chocolate. And a two-month old election stalemate has one presidential contender calling for a month long ban on the overseas sale of cocoa.

Obama Directs Agencies to Buy More Bio-based Products
February 22, 2012
President Obama in a memo Tuesday directs agencies to step up their purchasing of bio-based products.
The Agriculture Department must increase the number of categories and products eligible for its BioPreferred program by 50 percent within one year. Those products include, for example, paints, soaps and detergents that are developed from farm-grown plants rather than chemicals or petroleum bases.
About 9,000 products fall under USDA's bio-based products program — a voluntary program under which companies certify their products as bio-based, making them eligible for preferential procurement by agencies.
The memo will "dramatically increase the purchase of bio-based products over the next two years." Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a news release.

Narok — More information has emerged about the events before he was charged in Narok court on May 6, Devani appeared before Narok Resident Magistrate Zainabu Abdul charged with maliciously damaging two wind screens, cargo compartments, right gear box cases of a helicopter and causing damage of Sh15 million. He faced another count of jeopardizing the safety of the aircraft and forcing it to crash land in the Maasai Mara.
He was released on the surety of his advocate Lucas Kigen. The case will be mentioned on May 19 and the hearing will be June 23.
On the morning of Saturday May 3, a local charter company collected Devani from his residence in Westlands in the company of two American girls aged around 19 years.
They were flown to Tipilikwani camp in the Maasai Mara without incident in the Eurocopter AS350.
At 10am on Sunday morning, he told the pilot that he would like to go for "an aerial game flight" along the Talek river and they flew for about 23 minutes.
After the helicopter became airborne, Devani became agitated "stating that his children had been kidnapped and were in the back of the aircraft. He embarked on tearing the back seats from the Velcro," according to a witness.
The pilot then asked the Tipilkwani camp manager, a Mr Thuo, to restrain him while he made an emergency landing.
"The passenger complained of his child being kidnapped and locked in the boot of the helicopter," according to an incident report about "an unruly passenger" made to the Ministry of Transport on May 9.
"After landing, Devani went haywire. He forced the pilot to open the cargo door so that he could check if the children were inside. He said he was armed and would shoot the pilot if he did not cooperate," said a witness.
The pilot tried to calm him down but "he got even more hyper".
"The captain opened all the access doors and Devani grabbed a metal bar used for tie-downs that secure the rotor blades when the helicopter is parked," said the witness.
"He twice tried to hit the pilot with the metal bar but the pilot managed to escape with Thuo and ran away to the camp. Thuo called the local police who came to arrest him," he said.
"When the police arrived, Devani had removed all his clothes and was wearing only underpants. He was arrested on sight and detained," said the witness.
After Devani failed to find his child in the cargo hold, he smashed up the windscreen, canopy , fuselage and doors of the helicopter with the metal bar.
"We noted that he was somehow out of his senses," stated the Transport ministry incident report.
The American girls arrived back from their morning game drive just as the helicopter landed.
"An argument ensued and the ladies left the place towards the camp," said the witness. The frightened girls hired a camp car and rushed back to Nairobi.
While Devani was detained in Narok police station for two nights, two men arrived, claiming to be from State House. However State House in Nairobi denied any knowledge of Devani and he was charged in the Narok court the next day.
Devani had also his wallet, cigarettes, and sunglasses in the helicopter.
"There were some drugs in his wallet including some capsules. The police have sent them to the Government Chemist to determine whether they are narcotics or legal medicine," said a witness.
The helicopter was patched up a few days later and flown slowly back to Nairobi. It is now grounded awaiting spare parts from France that will take at least a month to arrive.
To make matters worse for the charter company, Devani bounced his cheque of Sh234,435 for hire of the helicopter. Devani's accountants have told the charter company that they will advise when the cheque can be rebanked.
Devani is a director of Jade Petroleum that sells fuel to Rwanda and Congo. He also supplies electrical transformers to government bodies.
Devani has had a bad year. In January he was arrested by police for allegedly shooting the padlock of a five-storey building in Westlands.
He had formerly owned Shimmers Plaza but it was auctioned by the National Bank of Kenya over a Sh150 million debt.
In January he was also involved in a fracas with a politician on an Emirates flight from Dubai to Nairobi.
In 2012 he was involved in legal proceedings trying to deport his Russian wife Adina from Kenya.

My partner and I are two high school students from Wisconsin. We were recently approached by an avid gardener about gardening carts. She is a senior citizen who wanted an easier to get around in the garden. Kneeling is painful, and it is hard for older people to keep getting up and down. The same goes for gardening scoots or just sitting on a bucket. We are trying to innovate a new product that would solve this problem. If you could take the time to answer a couple questions, it would be greatly appreciated.
Do you have any physical limitations/ disabilities when you garden? If so describe
Do you own/ use a garden scoot? If no, what do you use?
Are there problems with this?
Was it affordable/ how much did it cost?
Would electrically motorizing this be beneficial?
Any other problems/ suggestions?
Thank you for your time
The idea of some sort of INEXPENSIVE garden stool that would move without having to get up and down is very appealing. I am a senior with bad hips and knees, and the foam kneeler I use isn't keeping my knees from aching after I finish up. I would prefer to sit, or have a semi-kneeler of some sort, that would move easily, maybe with large wheels.
I think motorizing the device would make it unaffordable for most seniors like me who are on fixed incomes. Wide wheels made with good quality bearings would be better.
perhaps this seat would help, the only drawback that I see is no break. If you were to redesign to make a similar seat - make sure there is a way to park so it will not roll out from under a person because the person will lean over to work in the garden often. Also something like a roll-bar that the person could grab to assist them to stand up. This item would work better if the garden was raised beds.
What I personally really want is where the garden itself is raised in chair height planting boxes where I could sit on the side and reach to the middle of each box from either side. This would work now for a mobile person - and if the person became disabled they could have the "sit on ledge" taken off and be able to work the garden from a wheelchair. See the following examples. GOOD LUCK!

Best iPad Stock Market Apps
Wall Street On Your iPad
If you work with stocks on a regular basis, then this AppGuide is for you. We will guide you through some of the best apps to track and manage your stocks right from your iPad.
Essential Apps
Stock Guru for iPad
by Value Prime
Stock Guru is a powerful stock analysis app for the iPad. The app provides thorough analysis of every stock aiding you in selling or buying stocks. The app helps you judge stocks based upon risk, valuation, financial strength, and momentum. Stock Guru includes over 6,700 stocks from NYSE, AMEX, NASDAQ, and over the counter stocks. For each stock you are given a guru rating, valuation rating, financial strength, momentum rating, stock screening, comprehensive financial data, risk score, risk percentile, risk return chart, sharpe ratio, sharpe percentile, risk volatility comparisons, and key stock data. The app provides a nice interface to work in and is loaded with tons of features. Stock Guru is fairly expensive, but is an app that should help you create some nice income. If you are looking to become your own stockbroker, then this is a great app to have. No app competes with its ability to analyze the stock market.
StockWatch - iPad Edition
by Toughturtle LLC
StockWatch is an app to help you track your stocks from your iPad. The function and purpose of the app is somewhat different from Stock Guru. While StockGuru is designed to help you make decisions in buying and selling stocks, this app is designed to help you track stocks you already own. StockWatch was featured by Apple in their iTunes Rewind 2010 as one of the best apps of 2010. The app allows you to create unlimited numbers of portfolios, watch-lists, and symbols for portfolios. It provides constantly updated prices, gains, costs, and values for your stocks. The app also provides news feeds and technical charts. StockWatch supports stock markets from the United States, Europe, and Asia. It's loaded with great features and is built around a fantastic user interface. If you need to track stocks on your iPad, this is the app to have.
CNBC Business News and Finance
by NBCUniversal Media, LLC
The CNBC Real-Time app for iPad is a great free app to stay up to date with the market in real time. The app features live stock quotes and charts. CNBC Real-Time includes historical interactive charts and a playlist of all of your favorite stocks. The app also has all of the latest news and alerts from CNBC that relate to the stock market. It also helps you when the market is closed by providing pre-market data and post-market data and how different stories will impact the market in the future. CNBC Real-Time also includes over 150 news clips each and every day. These clips are taken from the television broadcasts that are done each day. The interface is fantastic. The app is so well done that many would gladly pay for it. If you are in need of a great app to keep your eye on the stock market, this is a simply great one.
Notable Apps
Stock TickerPicker - stock charts and investing analysis
by MF Software
Stock TickerPicker is a great app for stock quotes, stock charts, and technical analysis. The app is universal so it will run on both your iPad and iPhone. The app was featured by Apple in the iTunes 2010 Rewind. The app has a simply great interface on the iPad and an equally great interface on the iPhone. The iPad app truly feels like an iPad app rather than a simply blown up iPhone app. Stock TickerPicker is one of the best ways to keep track of your stocks and check out some prospective stocks for purchase in the near future. It is an app that does more than one thing right, though the price keeps it out of our Essential category.
iChartist Stock, Forex and Futures Charts
by Technical Trading Solutions Ltd
While not for just any investor, iChartist proves its usefulness to any serious trader on Wall Street. This app provides technical analysis and professional charts that include Average True Range, Bollinger Bands, Exponential Moving Average, Momentum and much more. Although iChartist is a fantastic app, it is hard to recommend it to anyone who doesn't completely know what they're doing in the field of investing. With its steep price tag, it's not for the casual investor.
Market Scan - Stock Technical Analysis
by missingSTEP.com
MarketScan is a nice alternative to StockGuru. The app includes tools to help analyze the stock market. The app includes the most-used technical indicators for stocks, predefined stock scans, info from the past four days, and charts. The developers are working on including weekly scans, alerts, stock search, and more. The app does provide many nice features, but does not provide nearly as much as StockGuru. The interface is nice, but somewhat harder to use in comparison to StockGuru, and it certainly isn't worth twice the price. If you are looking for an alternative to StockGuru, this is it.
by Visible Market Inc.
StockTouch provides a beautiful interface for viewing the top 100 stocks of both the U.S. and Global markets. The grid interface helps you visualize the top 100, and you can view by nine different sectors. The app also shows charts that visualize how the stock has done over the past day, week, month, three months, year, and more. There are even links to news articles that are relating to the company that you are viewing stock for. Updating data is not done in real-time, but it is done in five-minute intervals during the trading day. If you care about stocks and also care about having a great interface to work with, then give this app a try.
Decent Apps
Portfolio mobile - Stock Tracking & Market Analysis for iPad
by Bare Reef LLC
StockTrac HD includes portfolio tracking, technical analysis, foreign currency trading, and price alerts. The app is designed to be your one stock app. The number of tools available is simply great. The app can also sync data with your broker through OFX tools. The one downside of trying to do everything is it is harder to do everything well. The execution of all of these functions is not as good as having two stand alone apps designed for those special functions. Having StockGuru and StockWatch is a much better solution than what this app provides. If you are looking for a one stop shop this is it, but we would recommend using a few apps instead.
Bloomberg Business for iPad
by Bloomberg Finance LP
Bloomberg for iPad app accesses some great tools from Bloomberg. The app allows you to track your own stocks and stay up to date with the latest financial news. The app also includes access to the podcasts that Bloomberg runs. The app has access to a wealth of knowledge, all available for free. The one problem the app does have is ads. The app is just loaded with ads that take away from the experience of using the app. If you don't mind the ads, this is a great free app to have.

Discovery May Advance Cancer Therapy
What makes some stem cell populations multiply rapidly while others are laggards? And what would the answer to this question tell scientists working to understand colorectal cancer, the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States?
Much of Vanderbilt-Ingram's colorectal research today is built on a foundation laid decades ago by Stanley Cohen, PhD, a Vanderbilt biochemist who received a Nobel Prize in 1986 for his discovery and characterization of epidermal growth factor and its receptor. Today, Cohen is retired and lives in Nashville.
Research ongoing in the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center laboratory of Robert Coffey Jr., MD, is tackling that mystery, and a recent advance there puts scientists yet another step closer to improved colon cancer therapies. As reported this spring in the journal Cell, Coffey and his colleagues have identified a new population of stem cells, and these cells are unlike any other identified in the colon. They're slow growers, what scientists describe as "quiescent," while other stem cell populations in the colon are proliferating much more rapidly.
Coffey said there's been a "rethinking" about cancer from a stem cell perspective – and a recognition that while conventional therapies may eliminate 90 percent of a tumor, it can still "come back with a vengeance," repopulated by the cancer's stem cells. A promising therapy for treatment of colon cancer would be to target these colon cancer stem cells.
The stem cell population identified by Coffey and colleagues negatively regulates the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor by accelerating its degradation within the cell. "After we fully characterize this population of normal colonic stem cells, the next step will be to determine how this population of stem cells relates to colon cancer stem cells," Coffey explained.
To that end, researchers in Coffey's lab have been able to genetically manipulate this new population of stem cells to cause colon tumors in a laboratory mouse. "What that shows us is that this population has the ability to cause tumors under the right conditions. Now the question is, how is this relevant to human disease? Now we have an additional aspect to examine in human tumor formation," said postdoctoral fellow Anne Powell, PhD, the first author of the Cell paper.
This work is part of Vanderbilt's Gastrointestinal Special Program of Research Excellence, an initiative sponsored by the National Cancer Institute. The NCI established SPOREs in 1992 to promote interdisciplinary research into specific cancer types. The emphasis is on translational projects, work that spans the gap from basic laboratory discovery to clinical application. Vanderbilt nabbed its first highly competitive GI SPORE grant of $13 million in 2002, under the direction of Coffey. In 2007, that grant was renewed for another five years with $11.8 million, and Vanderbilt received the top score in the country in that pool of applications. Funding of the 2012 renewal application is pending, although Vanderbilt's application was scored, yet again, among the top in the country. The decision on funding has been delayed more than four months because the NCI budget has not been approved.
"Our GI SPORE is focused exclusively on colorectal cancer, and we have some very exciting developments in terms of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to colorectal cancer," Coffey said.
In the area of drug development, SPORE funds have allowed Vanderbilt researchers to develop a novel inhibitor of Wnt signaling, a pathway that is thought to be overactive in more than 80 percent of colon cancers. This therapy is now being tested in mice.
Yet another SPORE project focuses on promising candidate compounds that will inhibit a specific mutation called KRAS, which is present in about 50 percent of colon cancers and more than 90 percent of pancreatic cancers. A clinical trial is also under way at Vanderbilt to help understand why patients with mutant KRAS aren't helped by the drug Cetuximab, which blocks the EGF receptor and has been approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration. "Unfortunately, it only is successful in about 10 percent of patients, and the results are not long-lived. This underscores the need for new approaches to the treatment of colorectal cancer," said Coffey, adding, "What makes our study particularly exciting is that we've identified this new population of normal colonic stem cells that are largely quiescent. This population is actually marked by a negative regulator of the EGF receptor, which may help put the brakes on cell growth and proliferation."
Coffey's lab consists of a team of 16 individuals, ranging from undergraduate and graduate students to technicians and postdoctoral and senior research fellows.

The Huawei P8 Lite's affordable unlocked price is compelling, but the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 is a much better deal.
Although it doesn't have LTE, the ZTE Nubia 5's impressive specs and reliable performance make it a great value for an unlocked, high-end phone.
At $280, the Vortex is a good deal for a rugged phone, but those looking for a high-end Android phone should look elsewhere.
Equipped with a 2-megapixel camera, dual-SIM capabilities, and a four-row QWERTY keyboard, the Nokia Asha 210 is a budget-conscious feature phone bound for Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
The Galaxy Grand smartphone helps you get more out of your phone with its 5-inch screen, dual-SIM capabilities, and a Multi Window feature.

Alcatel, Huawei and ZTE are hoping that low prices for quality products will lure US consumers online.
Starting July 1, smartphones sold in the state must come with software that lets users lock a stolen phone so it can't be used, making it harder to resell. Crime statistics show the tech is already working.
Though the Ativ S boasts a dual-core processor, an 8-megapixel camera, and Microsoft's newest Windows Phone 8 OS, Samsung has no plans to bring it to the U.S. yet.

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
dear all,
this summer i'll be teaching a highschool course in computational physics.
one of the goals of the summer is that the students will be building their
own PC's. we've bought parts for a few athlon systems.
i'm writing a guide which will have them build a PC from parts and give
theory of how PC's work along the way. the hope is that by the time they
read the guide, they'll be able to go to pricewatch and piece their own
system together.
target audience is highschoolers with a minimal knowledge of computers.
i'm assuming they know what a hard drive and RAM is, but not much more.
and certainly not any of the details.
i'm having a rough time writing something on such a basic level. if anyone has
the time, i'd be grateful if someone could read and comment on what i have.
what i'm worried about:
1. is it suitable for (bright) high schoolers?
2. is too much detail?
3. accuracy of content
anyone willing to read through (it's about 12 pages not including the index)
please send me some private email and i'll send you either the tex code or a
postscript file.

"Isn't it a wonder that out in the pond, smooth wiggly tadpoles lose their tails and grow legs, and turn into frogs? And that fuzzy caterpillars weave silken cocoons around themselves and go to sleep, then wake up as pretty moths or butterflies?"It's a rare nonfiction book that's also a simple, beautiful poem. In this gorgeous Little Golden Book from 1957, Eloise Wilkin's stunning and realistic artwork is accompanied by gentle text that brings an awe of nature to the youngest readers.

Although it's been forever since I've posted about renovating our rental, but I have been thinking, dreaming, pinteresting NON STOP!!! JT and I have had many conversations so far this year about where we live and I'm so glad that we've decided to stick with our $500/month 2-bedroom apartment! It is perfect for us now, and I'm really enjoying the makeover process. By saving money on rent, we can afford to make our home look nice using things that will go with us when we do decide to move!
One of our biggest struggles is storage. With a large laundry room, two bedrooms, and a single-car garage, there is plenty of SPACE. But space doesn't mean storage. Let's be real...stacks of cardboard boxes and rubber maids is not efficient or appealing.
Also...a big built-in bookshelf is not great storage. This lovely catch-all was always overflowing with clutter. I solved this storage problem with some cute storage bins from Tuesday Morning ($20), and a curtain ($10) to hide half of the mess.
Another issue in our house is what to do with pi's and loungewear. It isn't dirty, but we don't feeling like putting it back away. It always ends up on the bed, floor, chair, etc. So I found these two adorable fabric bins at TJ Maxx to hold these problematic items ($25). They work perfectly under our night stands! The tables are painted with a $4 half-gallon of green paint from the Lowe's "oops" table.
We have finally moved most of our things into the back bedroom. I have to try not to cringe sometimes when I see the panelling, but I'm doing everything I can to improve it!!!
I had a few canvas paintings form high school and college that didn't work in any of the rooms, so I pulled of the canvas, leaving plain frames. I bought paint, burlap, pom pons, wood letters, and a neat wood cut frame at Michaels for $25. After a few hours of crafting...VOILA! Gallery wall for the master bedroom! I hope one day to have a really wide dresser to go on this wall, and maybe a small tv. The horizontal layout really makes the room look bigger!
Our yet-to-be hung headboard that I made JT for a wedding gift :)
More artwork I already had, and a cute heart farm that I purchased form Michaels and embellished!
I found this handsome fella at Goodwill. They have been raising their prices on well-known brands and other "nice" items. I turned down an awesome mirrored side table because I knew I could get a new one for a similar price. However, I couldn't turn down this awesome piece that looks like it jumped off the page of a magazine ($13).
I also found this adorable bowl on the clearance rack at TJMaxx, which is always FULL of goodies! ($6)
So for $100, I was able to clean up some clutter and spruce up our bedroom. Organization and decoration are two things that will make you feel LOADS better about your rental :)
Up next...the laundry/mud room. HELP!!!!!
