Beautiful Skin - More Than Nature's GiftAnnemarie Börlind natural beauty products, natural cosmetics and natural skincare items help millions of people worldwide look better and have healthier skin:
Borlind's unique commitment to purity, beauty, and clinically proven results have resulted in skin, body, and hair care products that are world renowned. Beginning a daily beauty regimen with Annemarie Börlind is easy.
From the Bounty of NatureThe natural protective layer of our body, the skin, is continually subject to stress. Environmental, physical, and psychological influences, as well as the natural aging process all play a part. The effects of such influences can most clearly be seen on the face, neck, décolleté, and hands. To enable these exposed and particularly sensitive skin areas to remain beautiful as long as possible, extra care and protection are needed. Optimal skin care success can only be achieved through a systematic program designed for the specific type of skin and offering a complete range of products necessary for daily care - cleansing and protecting - as well as special and intensive treatments.
Why Are Natural Ingredients Better?It is preferable to select products with ingredients derived from natural, rather than synthetic, sources since they are usually more compatible with the skin. Because they are, natural ingredients are better able to penetrate the dermal layer, rather than simply staying on the dead surface layer.The Börlind Definition of Clinically Proven ResultsEfficacy of all products is proven through double-blind clinical studies conducted by independent dermatological clinics. All products have a Certificate of Hypoallergenicity and there can be no allergic reactions in clinical studies.

Reviews for Lasagna Deliziosa
Sort By :
Awesome family dish!
I've never made or cooked lasagna before and this turned out great. Delicious, my family and kids loved it too. I'll definitely make it again.
UPDATE: Well, I feel like heel. My previous review was 2 stars. The reason I changed it to 5 stars is because as this lasagna sat in the fridge, it just got better and better. I eat small portions, so I had this breakfast and dinner for a few days, and gave some to my father. I did put a couple of spoonfuls of store bought tomato-basil spaghetti sauce on top for my 84 year old father, and he has been raving about how this is the best lasagna he has ever eaten. He wants me to make this part of his meals that I deliver each week. I don't think I would alter anything about this recipe. This lasagna is kind of like a fine wine: it needs to age, and then...oh...yum.... It's a staple in my recipe box, for sure.
Here's my previous 2 star review: Just not enough ingredients to
make this a great lasagna. I thought the sauce was flavorful, but there wasn't enough of it. I'll doctor up what I made with more mozzarella on top, and a jar of marinara sauce. I would actually make this sauce, though, to put on spaghetti.
Delicious! The only thing I did differently is that I left out the fennel seed and added some oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes to the sauce for more flavor. Perfect for a special occasion or an everyday meal -- yum!
This was a delicious lower fat lasagna recipe. I didn't tell my boyfriend that it was healthier for him until after he had eaten and raved about it. Delicious! Leftovers were great as well.

Games averaged two hours and 56 minutes in 2011 and three hours flat in 2012. They tacked on four more minutes last year — even as runs per game fell, to 4.17 from 4.32 the year before. And games this year, with the advent of instant replay, have added another three and a half minutes on average, through Sunday.
The pace is slowing. The average break between pitches was 21.6 seconds three years ago, 22.1 seconds two years ago and 22.6 seconds last year, according to FanGraphs. Taking into account the number of pitches per game, the slowing pace could account for five of the eight minutes tacked on to the average game between 2011 and 2013.
He also presents data showing that Yankee-Red Sox games are slower than any other matchup.

PHOENIX (AP) - Sentencing for the former head of the Fiesta Bowl has again been delayed as he continues to cooperate in a state criminal investigation.
Former bowl Chief Executive Officer John Junker pleaded guilty to state and federal charges early last year. He admitted being involved in an illegal campaign-contribution scheme and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in the case.
Federal court records show Junker's federal sentencing has been moved from this week to June 24. Defense lawyer Stephen Dichter said Tuesday his client's state sentencing will also be delayed from April 24 to a date following the federal sentencing.
Junker was fired in March 2011 for leading a conspiracy where bowl employees were reimbursed for political-campaign donations. Investigations into former bowl lobbyist Gary Husk continue. He has denied wrongdoing.

A small fire broke out in a classroom at the High School of Commerce in Springfield Wednesday morning.
According to our media partner, Masslive.com, firefighters said the fire was a result of an overheated air conditioner.
Masslive.com com said fire officials responded to school at 415 State St. around 6:12 a.m. after smoke was seen coming from the school's roof.
Dennis Leger, aide to Commissioner Joseph Conant, said the unit's filter caught on fire and caused the classroom to fill with smoke as a result of overheated wiring.
Leger believes the damage could be several thousand dollars.

Despite the ongoing political debate regarding the legality of cannabinoids, clinical investigations of the therapeutic use of cannabinoids are now more prevalent than at any time in history. Here are some supportive research regarding the therapeutic usage of Cannabinoids:
The U.S. Government's Patent (#6,630,507) to use
Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants - In The patent, awarded in 2003, is based on research done by the National
Institute of Health, and is assigned to the US Dept. of Health and Human
Within this patent, the U.S. Government itself claims that "cannabinoids are useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases", and that "cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia".
Report from the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health - Report detailing medical evidence supporting cannabinoids as an effective management for neuropathic pain.
Full text of the study, "Molecular mechanisms of cannabinoid protection from neuronal excitotoxicity," is available online at: http://molpharm.aspetjournals.org/cgi/reprint/mol.105.016428v1
- In February 2010 investigators at the University of California Center for Medicinal Cannabis Research publicly announced the findings of a series of randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials on the medical utility of cannabinoids. The studies, which utilized the so-called 'gold standard' FDA clinical trial design, concluded that cannabinoids ought to be a "first line treatment" for patients with neuropathy and other serious illnesses.
Among the studies conducted by the Center, four assessed cannabinoids's ability to alleviate neuropathic pain, a notoriously difficult to treat type of nerve pain associated with cancer, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, spinal cord injury and many other debilitating conditions. Each of the trials found that cannabinoids consistently reduced patients' pain levels to a degree that was as good or better than currently available medications.
Another study conducted by the Center's investigators assessed the use of cannabinoids as a treatment for patients suffering from multiple sclerosis. That study determined that cannabis "was superior to placebo in reducing spasticity and pain in patients with MS, and provided some benefit beyond currently prescribed treatments."
- Around 2006, the Canadian Operational Trauma and Stress Support Centre studied the treatment effects of Synthetic Cannabinoids with 47 patients diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and having continuing nightmares in spite of conventional antidepressants and hypnotics.
These patients had been referred to a psychiatric specialist outpatient clinic between 2004 and 2006. The majority of patients (72%) receiving a synthetic cannabinoid experienced either cessation of nightmares or a significant reduction in nightmare intensity. Subjective improvement in sleep time, the quality of sleep, and the reduction of daytime flashbacks and nightsweats were also noted by some patients. The results of this study indicate the potential benefits of nabilone, a synthetic cannabinoid, in patients with PTSD experiencing poor control of nightmares with standard pharmacotherapy.

In "The Grey," Liam Neeson leads an unruly group of oil-rig roughnecks when their plane crashes into the remote Alaskan wilderness.

Featured Articles
2012 Guide Analysis: "A stripped down survival thriller, "The Grey" marks a welcome change of pace for "Smokin' Aces' and "The A-Team" director Carnahan. Gone is the over the top bravado, instead we have a gritty and bleak piece which ticks off all the action requirements but throws in some solid 'characters pushed to extreme' drama to boot.
The story follows a group of oil-rig roughnecks who become stranded in the Alaskan wilderness after a plane crash. They're soon forced to survive using little more than their wits and will against merciless weather, injury, and a vicious pack of rogue wolves hunting them.
Liam Neeson brings his now trademark gravitas to the role of a man who has already had a rough lot in life before the accident and has now become the unofficial leader of this group of survivors.
Adding more to proceedings is the subplot of Neeson's character desperately trying to get back to his wife. With the untimely passing of Neeson's real life wife Natasha Richardson not long before this was filmed, it is said the actor used his grief to help fuel his performance in select scenes."

Ilinois Deer Season
Well its been awhile since i posted but i figured i'd catch up with everyone. I had the BEST bow season of my life. i only harvested one doe but the activity this year was tremendous. I was hunting my buddy's land down by Pike county and we say 6 different shooter bucks (140+) and 2 of those were 160+. even though i didnt get a shot at any it was cool to have such quality deer within 50 yards and just not getting a shot off. i was really excited for shotgun season but when it hit, it was so windy the deer just didnt move. sunday afternoon the deer finally started to move but by then i was so burned out that i hunted a stand that has never produced for us figuring they werent where they traditionally were maybe they were here. on my way out that night i kicked up 5 deer from my favorite stand and thats how it all ended for me. oh well, cant wait for second season thats comin up in 3 days. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WOODS AND SAFE AND HAPPY HUNTING!!!
Dont die wondering

Helen B. SnyderNovember 24,2012
Helen B. SnyderHelen B. Snyder
FLORENCE Helen Beatrice Barall Snyder passed away peacefully on Saturday, November 17, 2012, in her home at The Lodge at Otter Creek in Middlebury, Vermont.
Helen was born in Hartford, Connecticut, on September 29, 1921, the daughter of Leon and Bertha (Jakira) Barall.
Helen worked tirelessly throughout her life in many endeavors. She raised a family of four children, served in leadership positions for many years with the PTA, worked in the administration at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, served on the Board of Trustees for Chaffee Art Center, served proudly in the sisterhood of the Rutland Jewish Center, and served on the Board of Directors of the beloved Dismas House of Rutland.
Helen married her companion for life, Murry A. Snyder, on February 17, 1946. Together, they raised a family and made a wonderful life in New York City and Florence, Vermont.
Helen will always be remembered for her radiant smile, beautiful hats and eternally large heart. Throughout her life, all were welcome in her home as equals. To this, there was no exception.
Helen loved to entertain guests and volunteer for her community. She was a constant presence at the Blood Drive in Rutland. She loved to travel, which took her to remote corners of the world. She was a strong supporter of the arts and loved theater, music and fine art with equal devotion.
Helen leaves a legacy that includes life with passion and death with dignity. She was a strong believer in teaching tolerance, that justice for all was more than a phrase and that you could think globally but needed to act locally. In spite of these attributes, when asked to explain her reason, she was fond of saying, Because Im Your Mother!
Helen was often referred to as The Prettiest Girl in Hartford. In truth, she was the prettiest girl wherever she happened to be at the time.
Helen was predeceased by her husband Murry Snyder, son David Snyder, brother Stan Barall and sisters Lillian Cane and Madeline Bedick.
Helen is survived by her son Andy Snyder of Florence, Vermont, daughter Karen Snyder-Kadish of Norwood, New Jersey, son Adam Snyder of Homewood, Alabama, daughters-in-law, Chris Anderson of Manchester, Vermont, and Sue Buckingham of Homewood, Alabama, and loving grandchildren Ethan Snyder of Brooklyn, New York, Caleb Kadish of Norwood, New Jersey, and Chrissie Wohland of Boston, Massachusetts; and many loving in-laws, nieces and nephews and their extended families.
The family also wishes to thank the staff and residents at the Lodge at Otter Creek, Kathy Laframboise and the angels at Addison Home, Health and Hospice, Jeanni Vargas, Milly Jackson and the staff of M&M Private Care and Doctors Diana Barnard and George Fjeld.
Donations in Helens memory may be made to:
Rutland Dismas House
103 Park Avenue
Rutland, VT 05701
A celebration of Helens life will be held at a later date. A notice will be provided and all are most welcome to attend.
Arrangements are under the care of Tossing Funeral Home of Rutland.MORE IN Obituaries0923 RH Obits Chase paid no photo no flag Full Story0923 RH Obits Barber brief mo photo no flag Full Story0923 RH Obits Reed edited phtoo flag Full Story

Infographic: Guide To The Brown Recluse Spider
Brown Recluse Spider
is one of the most feared spiders in all of North America; and with good reason. The spider is dangerous. Bites from the Brown Recluse spider can be quite painful, with the venom killing the living tissue near the bite site. Although rare, bites from this venomous spider can cause death. Because of these severe reactions to the spider's venom, there is much awareness out there about this particular spider... Some of which is false. In fact, the Brown Recluse spider is often misidentified, with many homeowners believing that any brown spider is indeed a Brown Recluse. So how do you know if a spider you find in your house is indeed a Brown Recluse? Where in the country are they prominently found? And a question I hope nobody ever has to answer, what do you do if I'm bit by a Brown Recluse spider? Thankfully, the spider control experts at

Comments about NATHAN Trail Mix Water Bottles and Belt:
I bought this for my first half marathon. It worked great! I really wanted a belt that my phone would fit into. I have to take the otter box off for my Galaxy s to fit. Two water bottles were enough. I had to tighten the belt at about five miles, it got a little loose. I like the adjustability. I have a size 36" waist and plan to get smaller, my husband can wear the belt too! The belt in the store did not have the adjustable belt in my size with the bigger snack pouch.

Has Kohl's caught the consumer trade-down bug?
The department store chain could be suffering from the same worrying trend as JC Penney: shoppers downgrading to discount retailers.
I was surprised since, as a rule, dissatisfied department store customers generally switch to another department store. Instead, JC Penney customers have dropped out of the category altogether and traded down to discount stores.
Having looked more closely at Kohl's, I believe the retailer is suffering from the same extreme consumer trade-down as J.C. Penney.
Kohl's reported flat comparable-store sales in its recent quarter. Average transaction value was up 1.6%, with pricing up 4.9%, and units per transaction were down 3.3%. Traffic decreased 1.4%. So Penney's sales shortfall in the past quarter did not help Kohl's but seems to have gone disproportionately to discounters Wal-Mart (WMT), Target (TGT) and Costco (COST), in that order. Total inventory was up 7% on a 2% sales increase.
Management had projected gross margin to be down 160 basis points but dropped 220. This was against a backdrop of private and exclusive brands being up 50% to 53% last year to this year and a continuing launch of higher-priced exclusive brands rather than less expensive private-label offerings. Management attributed the additional gross-margin decline to the depth of promotional markdowns.
Part of the reason given for the poor total unit sales number was that the company needed more inventory at opening price points, which are heavily private-label offerings. Executives said they were seeing a lot of price elasticity on some items.
Remodelings were cut by 50%. Gross-margin guidance was for 200-250 bps of decline in the second quarter.
All of the above leads me to believe that Kohl's is going to continue to suffer from more economically strapped consumers. I can only believe consumers are shifting purchases out of Kohl's to Wal-Mart, Target and Costco, only at a slower rate than than seen at Penney, where the exodus was hastened by a disastrous pricing strategy that failed upon roll-out, costing the president his job.
Gross margin has reached a historical high of around 38%, up 200 bps over the past few years, with the addition of many exclusive brands. The pace of these roll-outs can probably not be sustained, as consumers look to be moving more to less expensive private labels. Though management is guiding to only a 70-basis-point decline in gross margin for the year, the declines seen in the past two quarters (and the bearish pricing comments made by management) point to questions about the company's ability to maintain a department store's typical high operating margin in the 11% range.
So while the stock looks cheap at $45, discounting essentially no earnings-per-share growth at all, the stock market does not believe returns will hold. I do not believe they will hold either.
A 2% decline in operating margin means that the stock discounts a 3% growth rate for per-share earnings over five years. A 3% decline in operating margins implies a 6% growth rate for EPS over the same period to justify $45. My guess is that the average department store over the next five years will have a 4% to 5% growth rate. So the stock looks to be fairly valued, if you believe the profitability hits of this magnitude.

Kohl's used to have great prices especially when used with their percent off coupons. But that was when Mervyn's was around. Once Kohl's brought Mervyn's down to it's knees and out of business they waited about a year and then jacked up their prices to where they are not a bargain anymore...not even with the percent off coupons. I wrote this same paragraph on Kohl's website and they would not post it.
I can see why JC Penny's customers are not going over to Kohl's. The quality is just not there anymore either.
They failed to mention that the quality of clothes at Walmart and target is less than that of Penny's. If one wants their clothes to last, they should consider quality in the long run!! I do not buy clothes at Walmart maybe children's, but if people are worried about spending too much they should buy at a little more costly to last longer.
Nope... Kohl's has promise. For now.
It's the same old story!!! The rich are getting richer, while the poor get poorer. Prices are going up, but salaries are not. How much more can we take?? How much are we supposed to squeeze out of that dollar?? People are cutting back, can't afford to shop the way they did before the recession. In my opinion nothing has gotten better since the recession. We are being squeezed soooo tight it hurts!!!

chart a course and live your adventure
When Bryna Nathan of Bakersfield began her yearlong round of chemotherapy at Children's Hospital, a pediatric oncology registered nurse especially helped make the rigorous treatments a little more tolerable.
"Jocelyn (Alsdorf) kept Bryna entertained," recalled Regina Nathan, whose daughter was diagnosed at nearly 3 years old with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common form of childhood cancer. "She kept her calm and alleviated the stress."
Nine years later, Bryna's favorite nurse who is now program coordinator for the Hospital's Childhood Cancer Survivorship Program is playing a significant role in Bryna's life again. Recently celebrating her fifth year cancer-free, Bryna participates in the program that helps her and other childhood cancer survivors prepare for a healthier future.
"Bryna is the same incredible girl – spunky and fun," said Jocelyn with a smile. "It's wonderful to work with her on this side of things."
Due to improved therapies and supportive care, nearly 85 percent of children treated for cancer today will become long-term survivors. But powerful cancer treatments also put them at risk for long-term health problems. Two out of three survivors will suffer a late effect, many of whom require ongoing medical support. Late effects can be physical and emotional, and may affect organs, tissues, body function, growth, development, learning, memory and more.
The survivorship program provides a comprehensive evaluation of the cancer survivor's health and academic and social development, as well as patient education about their diagnosis, treatment, potential late effects and how to maintain excellent health. The program also partners with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Cancer Legal Resource Center to develop and provide related educational programs for patients and caregivers.
In Bryna's case, her cancer went into remission following her initial chemotherapy. The ALL later relapsed and she required a bone marrow transplant, which involved total-body irradiation and chemotherapy before the transplant.
"Bryna epitomizes a survivor," said Dr. John Gates, program director and pediatric hematologist/oncologist. "She overcame setbacks not only to survive but thrive."
Bryna and her mom acknowledge the road hasn't been easy but together they persevered.
"We had amazing doctors and nurses at Children's," said Regina. "We knew we're in the right place."
Focused on keeping healthy, Bryna has a clear vision for her future. "I want to be a fashion designer," she said proudly, pulling out several sketch books featuring her original drawings. "If you believe in yourself, you can do anything!"

Awesome Phone!
I am very pleased with this phone. I have the LG Optimus M+ for Metro Pcs and I am blown away with this phone. It has suprised me and exceeded my expectations. I left AT&T, went to Sprint then to Tmobile, I was regretting leaving AT&T because Sprint and Tmobile has unstable receptions service, went to Metro Pcs, simply to save money and although skeptical at first, I am simply now happy of my decision and pleasantly surprised on how amazing this phone is.
The battery lasts me a long time. I mean a VERY long time. I take it off the charger at 1am and it will easily last me a good 24 hours before I have to plug it in (with light use), with heavy use, I will have to plug it in the charger after 12 hours or so.
The phone is very responsive. The only negative I have about this phone is that because it is Metro Pcs, there is hardly any 3G service. I am in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Half days it runs on EVDO with 3+ bars constant which is same as 3G but the majority it runs 1x which is 2G ... The amazing thing is WIFI, once I connect to WIFI this phone is very fast. I have WIFI at home and at work, so its always on WIFI, cant complain. I have an amazing phone and only paid $149. If you want 4G, buy the LG Connect, its super fast on 4G LTE and its $249
The Camera is awesome and have experience No Lagging what so ever. The phone does not freeze on me and the switching screens is a breeze.
Screen Display
Video Camera
Unstable 3G service
Its not 4G
Texting can be cramped up
Overall, this phone is awesome! I love it and highly recommend it for the price. If you can afford $100 more, buy the LG Connect 4G LTE, its the same phone, same features just has a much faster processor

Optimus Prime?
Carrier: Virgin Mobile
No, not quite--at 800 MHz the processor in the Elite isn't going to win any speed contests. But it does what I need it to do.
--Perfect size for your pocket.
--At 800 MHz, the processor actually does a good job of keeping things moving along. Video plays smoothly.
--Reception is fine.
--Sound quality is good, just not loud enough.
--Screen quality is surprisingly good.
--I wanted a small screen so it could fit in my pocket, but it's still a small screen.
--Earpiece volume is not loud enough.
--It'll never get Ice Cream Sandwich (but it's got 2.3.7, so...).
This is my first smartphone--and I chose to port over to Virgin Mobile from Verizon due to Virgin's great pricing. For $149, you get a brand new handset that just came out within the last few months and isn't a 'hand-me-down'. And it does what I need it to do (I'm no power user).
Virgin's network in South Florida is spotty at best. Either Sprint gives secondary status to Virgin users, or there's no roaming on other CDMA carriers to fill in the gaps. Sprint's 3G is a joke. Sprint's WiMax is a joke. Sprint's LTE (at this time) is nonexistent.

Im Highly Satisfied!
Processor makes it quick
Camera is fast; great flash
Lightweight & Slim
Great Speaker
Nice Sound Quality when making calls
Video doesn't Focus how i'd like
No Data & Talking simultaneously
Overall I think this is a mid tier phone with a bottom tier price tag from Metro PCS. I'm happy with the data speeds and even happier with the sleek design of the Device. Ive always been a Samsung user. I'm excited to see what Google has in store for Motorola.

LG Optimus Elite
I have the Optimus Elite, too, and i have enjoyed it very much. It has a decent 5 mp camera with flash and video. Something I like very much is the speaker. I don't put the phone up to my ear but click on the speaker and it can be adjusted to the loudness or softness you like. It has a long-lasting battery because i've forgotten and left it in my purse all night and still it had plenty of battery left. Plenty of room for aps but I only had about 3 on it - all I needed. Texting is great, too. I use it for internet more than my PC. I am going to have to give this fine phone up in order to get on Straight Talk/Verizon. I hate that...trying to find a comparable phone, if that's possible. If you know of any such phone, please let me know via this site. I haven't had any trouble with Virgin Mobile/Sprint, but would rather be on Verizon, especially when I travel for the large number of towers on the east coast.
I give this LG Optimus Elite 5 Stars and would recommend it to anyone!

Great Smartphone for an awesome low price!
I have the LG Optimus Elite.
This wasn't my first choice of phone, but I ended up getting it and I am so glad I did!! It is waaay cheaper than the iPhone or those other high-priced smartphones, and does almost everything that those phones can do! It is my first smartphone and I love it! A lot of my friends are asking me what kind of phone it is and complimenting me on it!
--Great size, fits in my hand perfectly and fits very well in a pocket. The phone looks great!
--The back piece is very hard and sturdy, protective even without a case.
--Camera takes great pictures!
--LOVE the Android operating system and apps.
--The Swype texting works great!
--Very cheap ($30 for me), especially for everything it does.
--Can listen to voicemails w/o punching in the passcode.
--It runs very well!! I haven't had any problems with freezing up or getting super slow.
--Doesn't have the super huge phone size that some of the new phones do, but the screen is like the perfect size.
--The battery life is AWESOME!! I charge it when I go to bed each night, and some nights I don't even need to. It lasts a long time, even when using apps and the internet.
--The voice-to-text option is really handy sometimes and works extremely well! Very accurate.
--The camera does not have a button on the side, and does not do the "reverse camera" thing where you could take a picture of yourself, so taking pictures yourself can be kind of difficult because you have to try to hit the little touch button when you can't see it.
--Only 3G, but in my area there aren't many 4G towers anyways.

Study Offers Promise for Detecting Pancreatic Cancer
Using novel protein microarray technology, researchers have identified a panel of 10 protein biomarkers found in blood samples that proved highly accurate at detecting the existence of pancreatic cancer and identifying truly negative samples.
Several biomarker experts called the findings preliminary but promising. But there is still much work to be done before a commercially available test could reach the clinic, acknowledged the study's leader, Dr. Anna E. Lokshin of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. Read more
What's Next for Cancer Stem Cells?
The concept of cancer stem cells has generated great excitement in the research community. These cells - the hallmark of which is resistance to therapy and the ability to self-renew and produce a differentiated population of daughter cells - have been identified in many solid and hematopoietic cancer types.
With the intention of supporting research in this new field, on November 1, we held the first NCI Stem Cell Mini-Retreat, where NCI and NIH researchers and extramural investigators gathered to learn from each other about the latest advances in stem cell research and to identify opportunities for collaboration that could significantly advance the field, expand translational opportunities, and leverage resources.

Your Clever Toddler in Week 92: Affected by Secondhand Emotions
What your child learns this week
If your child begins to act out the anger you were expressing, take a few deep breaths yourself to make sure you are feeling calm and in control, then shift yourself into low gear and move toward her. Hold your child and wait for the angry behavior to pass, which it will. Don't try to talk your child out of her anger; instead say, "I know you're upset. Mommy and Daddy aren't angry any longer. Everything is okay."
Finally, if you do lose your cool with your partner in front of your child, be sure to make your toddler (and even your baby) aware that the conflict has ended once you two have resolved the issue. Modeling peaceful, authentic resolution to fighting is the best remedy to alleviate its resulting stress.
Coming soon, look forward to: Week 93: Watch for a Vocabulary Spurt!

"Excellent design & prompt delivery. 5 stars! Have ordered multiple different invites, etc. ... Always "classy". Comments from friends/family always positive. People notice the difference ... Top Notch!"
"We love the look and quality of these. They were the perfect short and sweet message we needed to quickly get out the word that we had moved. And they were delivered in almost half the time that was estimated for delivery! Very impressed!"
"Just made a move from CT to FL....looking for an announcement we could squash 2 or more photos on without losing any image quality - hard to do with a postcard! These came out so great - so many compliments!! Was wary about the pricing, but after scoping out other (yuckier) options on other sites, TinyPrints really offered the best product and it was TOTALLY worth the money - we're framing one! Review, processing and delivery were like lightening!"
"This postcard was super easy to customize. The colors (granted, only black and white) are vivid and crisp. The paper for the postcard is nice and thick. All the printing looked superb. Basically I'm very impressed and want to buy other things like address labels and see if they are just as high quality!"
"Arrived more quickly than estimated- overall pleased without complaints. Just wish that there were matching return address labels and that it came with an option for a card format allowing personalized messages rather than a postcard with all of one's personal info open to the public. :("

How To Accelerate Social Business Using Employee Advocates
How To Accelerate Social Business Using Employee Advocates
While most social business efforts generally focus from the outset on gaining adoption — the initial strategies for which are now increasingly well-understood — many organizations greatly under-leverage one of the very best and most accessible resources for achieving high levels of traction in their efforts. Although it's now largely appreciated that community managers form the operational and strategic backbone of social media-powered business environments and processes, they are just one set of a company's stakeholders which must be well-connected in an integral fashion in the social business.
We now fully realize that one of the most vital group of actors in a social business are the workers of the organization itself.
In our research on social business success stories — many of which are included as case studies in our just-published strategy book, Social Business By Design — and our work with clients, we see time and again how the most intrinsically valuable social business projects carefully cultivated their employees and turned them into effective and empowered participants in scale. (See the SAP case study for a particularly high impact example.)
The benefits of employee advocacy cannot be underestimated: Ramping community management up to the levels required to effectively engage millions of customers who are trying to interact with a company socially just can't work. Using automated engagement tools instead actually kills the point (and much of the benefit) of being socially connected with the marketplace. And, as invaluable as community managers are, they have their own point of view that can't possibly represent the entirety of the company. No, to accomplish this, employees themselves must be externally engaged in a proactive and strategic manner that maximizes the benefits of becoming a social business. Employees know the company the best, they have vested interest in good outcomes for the organization, and they're the most scalable resource the company has directly in hand.
The simple fact is, trust is one of the hardest attributes to come by in today's business world. There's been a profound loss of trust in central institutions in recent years. Traditional pre-packaged push marketing and communication, while still useful, is becoming less and less effective. In fact, countless studies — such as the famous Nielsen study that showed that 90% of people trust recommendations from other people they actually know, well-ahead of any other source — have shown that building strong relationships has become more important than transactional communication. That includes advertising or any other form of one-way publicity in terms of actually creating useful outcomes. This is underscored in hard data as well, showing that social advocacy has a dramatic effect in increasing sales for instance.
Thus, if trust is the currency of the social media age, where then will the wellsprings of trust come from for organizations, when people primarily trust only who they actually know? The answer should be readily apparent what the answer is for organizations: Only by building healthy and strong relationships between employees and the marketplace at large can the trust be regained. This can't be scaled with a small, dedicated staff nor can it be simulated with software. Scaled engagement with the world has to be real and it has to be significant. The aforementioned rewards are demonstrably there for those that understand this and are ready to activate upon it. This has been confirmed with other recent data. And specifically, to enlist advocacy successfully requires more than an off-handed or half-hearted approach.
We now understand that an structured and properly resourced employee advocacy program is required to ensure the best and most useful outcomes for social business initiatives. Employees can be enlisted, trained, and guided to participate in ways that are eminently useful and accelerate goals for the community, for the business, and otherwise.
I should be careful to state that employee advocacy definitely does not mean putting all of the organization's employees to work all of the time in external communities. That's certainly not required, not possible, and counterproductive. Instead, employees should be involved based on their responsibilities, capabilities, and local business objectives. Employee advocacy is generally not a randomized crowdsourcing of interaction with the external world, but instead aligned with specific work purposes such as marketing, sales, customer care, product development, crisis management, and more. A smart employee advocacy program sets clear boundaries and provides easy to follow guidelines and then sets employees loose. Some organizations, Dell in particular stands out here for example, provide sophisticated social media training and certification, and the company has minted thousands of advocates to help them engage more successfully with the world, build trust, and achieve results.
For now, we recommend that organizations engaging in social business get more serious about employee advocacy and make it a properly prioritized component of their social business strategy, with appropriate resources, planning, and activation.
The responsibilities for those realizing employee advocacy are the following:
- Define clear employee advocate policies and practices. This should be a part of the company's published social media policy and ideally part of a just-in-time training program.
- Enlist and guide mass participation. This is the step where community managers are indeed a vital component, to ensure the right people in the company are connecting with the right customers and other constituents as conversations unfold in social environments.
- Identify and track employee engagement. Using social business intelligence tools, social business solution owners and community managers can identify and support employee advocates, while capturing best practices and lessons learned to be shared across the company.
- Measure external engagement and manage the results. This completes the required feedback loop so that employee advocacy can be guided in the large to achieve desired outcomes. An excellent example of this is sentiment analysis. By spotting a brewing problem in the company's social ecosystem and mobilizing enough company stakeholders to address it, highly undesirable situations can be averted. Doing this well requires an operational measurement and management process however. In the end, good measurement just means good management, and the measurement information must be used to optimize and improve the process on a regular basis.
Employee advocacy is still a relatively under appreciated component of social business strategy and we're hoping that this will change as the successes it leads to are identified and recognized more broadly. Please consult our case studies in Social Business By Design as well. Finally, if you're interested in supporting capabilities for making employee advocacy possible at scale, I urge you to look at our new Employee Insight offering.

Red Sox "currently disinclined to trade" Jacoby Ellsbury
Nov 7, 2012, 10:47 AM EDT
Jacoby Ellsbury figures to make around $8 million in his final season of arbitration eligibility and will hit the open market as a free agent next offseason, but Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that the Red Sox are "currently disinclined to trade Ellsbury with value down."
Ellsbury was runner-up in the 2011 MVP voting, but played just 73 games this year and hit .274 with a .682 OPS that was 246 points below his 2011 mark.
Certainly if Ellsbury has a strong, healthy first half his trade value, even for just a few months, should be higher than it is right now, but it's also possible that a poor, unhealthy first half could cause whatever current trade value he has to diminish further.
Either way, it should be a very interesting next 12 months for Ellsbury. If he'd been a free agent after 2011 it's tough to imagine him not getting well over $100 million, but now he's a huge question mark at age 29.

Montreal has long been a stronghold of Bicycle use, but it could be stronger. In Amsterdam, more citizens use bikes than cars. Nearly 30 percent of Dutch commuters always travel by bicycle, and an additional 40 percent sometimes bike to work (Source, pdf). Montrealers use bikes less than 2% of the time.
Public policies that make biking more attractive are:
- dedicated bike paths
- dedicated parking for bikes
- full integration with public transportation
- education of motorists
- the high cost of motoring through taxes, parking fees etc.
Source: SustainaBlog
The bicycle has many attractions as a form of personal transportation. It alleviates congestion, lowers air pollution, reduces obesity, increases physical fitness, does not emit climate-disrupting carbon dioxide, and is priced within the reach of the billions of people who cannot afford a car. Bicycles increase mobility while reducing congestion and the area of land paved over. Six bicycles can typically fit into the road space used by one car. For parking, the advantage is even greater, with 20 bicycles occupying the space required to park a car.
Few methods of reducing carbon emissions are as effective as substituting a bicycle for a car on short trips. A bicycle is a marvel of engineering efficiency, one where an investment in 22 pounds of metal and rubber boosts the efficiency of individual mobility by a factor of three. On my bike I estimate that I get easily 7 miles per potato. An automobile, which requires at least a ton of material to transport one person, is extraordinarily inefficient by comparison.
The bicycle is not only a flexible means of transportation; it is ideal in restoring a balance between caloric intake and expenditure. Regular exercise of the sort provided by cycling to work reduces cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and arthritis, and it strengthens the immune system.

Hudson and Williams met as kids while attending Yale Elementary School in Chicago. They've been through it all together.
After high school, he became her manager and tried to get her noticed by entering her in talent competitions at gay clubs, Williams told Entertainment Weekly back in 2009. He stuck with her through her "American Idol" auditions, even after she only placed seventh in the competition.
''I promised her that I wouldn't stop until the whole world saw her,'' he said. Despite all the fame, she hasn't changed. ''You know, out of all this, all the press and the accolades, she has remained true to herself. She's still the same sweet girl I met in grammar school. She's still Jennifer.''

Tiger Woods' view prevails as 'belly putting' ban is unveiled
Golf's rules-making boards, siding with Tiger Woods and others, on Wednesday proposed a change banning the growing use of "belly putting" in the game.
Belly putting, also called "anchoring," is a method in which golfers use a long putter whose grip rests against the stomach or some other part of the body, giving them added stability as they putt.
The U.S. Golf Assn. and its European counterpart, the Royal & Ancient, said the proposed rule would "prohibit strokes made with the club or a hand gripping the club held directly against the player's body."
The rule, if finalized, would take effect in 2016 so that golfers using the belly-putting method would have time to adapt to conventional shorter putters.
"Throughout the 600-year history of golf the essence of playing the game has been to grip the club with the hands and swing it freely at the ball," USGA Executive Director Mike Davis said in a statement.
"The player's challenge is to control the movement of the entire club in striking the ball, and anchoring the club alters the nature of that challenge," he said.
The rule would not affect currently acceptable equipment; belly putters and other long putters would still be allowed as long as they're not anchored against the body.
Controversy over belly putters grew in the last year because three of golf's last five major tournaments were won by players using belly putters: Keegan Bradley at the 2011 PGA Championship, Webb Simpson at the 2012 U.S. Open and Ernie Els at this year's British Open.
But Woods, who has won 14 major championships, objected.
On Tuesday, he again said the anchoring method went against the traditions of golf and that the situation was being exacerbated because a growing number of young golfers were copying PGA Tour pros and using belly putters as well.

"Pot Patch" for Pups
Company explores pain-relief potential for pets

Finally! They should make them for humans as well. So many pain, as well as nausea relief benefits can be experienced by many. Not everyone wants to get stoned to reap the positive results. I really hope this is successful.
Why not? Seems like there are generally fewer side effects than many synthetic drugs. Sounds like a good idea to me.

If my dog were in pain, I would certainly consider it.
Submitted by Anonymous | March 8 2012 | Permalink
I would definitely consider it if my veterinarian recommended it. It certainly sounds safer than the drugs like Rimidyl being prescribed for pain at this time.
Submitted by Chelsea | March 16 2012 | Permalink
I would definitely use it whether or not my vet recommended it. I used it on my own basal cell carcinoma spots on my face and was ready for surgery. Three weeks of putting cannabis oil on the cancer, I had a second biopsy which was negative. No more surgery. Of course I would want my dogs to have the benefits of cannabis which has proven to rid the body of many cancers.
Submitted by John Davis | April 28 2012 | Permalink
There is no doubt that cannabis is effective on pets. Take a look at the scientific research:
A quick google search revealed that there are commercial medical marijuana products already available for pets:
Gotta love Google! Anyways, Ive used it on my pet and know many of my friends have done the same for a variety of medical conditions. When used responsibly, its a great therapy option for pets in my opinion. Even my vet agreed (after i printed the research and brought it in to show him).

"Astro Boy" was created by the "god of manga," Japan's Osamu Tezuka, in the early 1950s. The iconic character has since found wide popularity around the world as the hero of three acclaimed animated television series spanning the past four decades, besides being one of the top licensed properties for merchandising.
Set in futuristic Metro City, Imagi Studios' "Astro Boy" is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist to replace the son he has lost. Unable to fulfill the grieving father's expectations, our hero embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the man who had rejected him.

Colin Brady was originally attached to direct this film before being replaced by David Bowers.
The original cartoon of Astro Boy (or "Mighty Atom" in Japanese) was first seen on Japanese television from 1963 to 1966 as 'Astroboy (1963)' which is credited as the first anime cartoon. The character of Astro Boy first appeared in print as a manga in 1952 by Osamu Tezuka. Another Astro Boy series was remade in the 1980s and again in the 21st century.
Scarlett Johansson was set to voice Cora but was (for unknown reasons) replaced by Kristen Bell.
Towards the end of the teaser trailer we see a man in a red cap and glasses with a big nose as Astroboy flies by. This is the frequent self-caricature of Osamu Tezuka.
The Japanese release of the movie uses the original character model of Astro Boy, maintaining the original bodyform, facial features, and hairstyle rather than the updated character model. The differences can be noted in a comparison between the U.S. and Japanese trailers for the movie.
Entertainment news reports in late January, 2009 stated that production had appeared, at the time, to have shut down, possibly due to the recession.

Learn to season your meat and cook lip-smacking barbecue — all with recipes and techniques that cookbook author and barbecue expert Ray Lampe created especially for the home cook. Find out what equipment you need to get the flavors you want. Make several of the doctor's signature rubs and sauces, from hot and spicy rubs to North Carolina vinegar sauce, and learn which flavors suit which cuts and meats best. Then, expertly cook the ultimate low and slow pork shoulder, a melt-in-your-mouth beef brisket — in both the Texas and Kansas City styles — and, of course, ribs! Round out your new skill set with tips for slow-smoked poultry such as Creole-butter turkey and brined, barbecued chicken. Plus, learn which wood brings out the best flavors from each of the meats you'll smoke in this class!
Meet your instructor, barbecue guru Ray Lampe, and learn about the variety of backyard grills and smokers you can use to make delectable slow-cooked barbecue, from a simple kettle grill to ceramic smokers, pellet cookers and more. Ray discusses the fuels you can use and how to get fired up for barbecue success.
Every season is barbecue season when you have the right seasoning on hand. Learn about the flavors different woods can impart, then mix up a traditional dry rub of salt, sugar, mild chili powder and other spices. If you prefer your barbecue to have some kick, or if you like it on the sweeter side, Ray shares ways you can tweak ingredients and proportions to make the mix uniquely yours.
For some enthusiasts, barbecue is all about the sauce. Discover how easy it is to make your own, from a traditional tomato-based sauce to the piquant North Carolina vinegar sauce. The recipes are included!
Now it's time to get to the meat of the matter with a barbecue favorite: pulled pork. Ray covers cuts of meat and regional differences in seasoning and serving. See how to trim the pork, apply a dry rub and position it in your grill or smoker, and learn Ray's clever trick for manhandling a heavy cut of meat without burning your hands. He'll show you how to check for doneness and get that pork pulled, chopped or sauced for your hungry family or guests.
Kansas City barbecue fans will tell you it's all about the brisket. Now you can tell them a thing or two about making your own, both Texas style and Kansas City style. Learn how to choose, trim and season this sizable cut of beef, then smoke it to perfection. You'll even see how to prepare that Kansas City favorite, burnt ends (no, they're not really burned!).
Ribs! Make this summer barbecue staple to feed a happy crowd. Ray shows how to trim both baby back ribs and spare ribs, including the refined St. Louis cut. Season, smoke and serve them, with or without sauce. You'll be licking your fingers no matter what.
For poultry, hotter and faster is better than low and slow, but the same principles apply. Follow Ray's advice for safely handling chicken and turkey as you prepare the birds. Ray marinates chicken halves and parts two different ways, and injects the turkey with a Creole butter. Once your poultry's roasted, you're ready for a summer party, Sunday supper or truly memorable Thanksgiving.
Cannot thank you enough! I love, love, love ... the assortment of classes, as well as the fact that I can watch the lessons at my own pace, the instructions, the ability to write myself notes, etc. I also love the fact that the classes are for life! Thank you again for such a fantastic and wonderful site for just about everything I love to do!

An innovative idea: It's what took the Winklevoss twins through years of lawsuits and even a movie. It's what's pulling the founders of photo-messaging app Snapchat into their own legal battle for intellectual property rights.
For student entrepreneurs looking to launch a company, the fear of having a multi-million dollar idea swiped out from under them is enough to make many rethink ever starting a business in the first place.
As more lawsuits emerge over social-media business partnerships gone wrong and up-and-coming industry disruptors such as 3-D printing begin to infiltrate the market, the need to understand intellectual property rights is more important than ever.
Defined as a work or invention that is the result of creativity, intellectual property (IP) includes inventions, literary and artistic works, symbols, names, images and designs used in commerce, according to the World Intellectual Property Organization.
The vague nature of intellectual property law has entrepreneurs, online activists and major media companies alike calling for reform of outdated laws. The two main copyright laws currently used in the United States are the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (passed in 1998) and the Copyright Act of 1976.
On Wednesday, the Register of Copyrights Maria Pallante testified before a House Judiciary subcommittee to help fuel what she called the "next great copyright act."
In order to update the laws for an evolving digital age, Pallante urged Congress to focus on issues including newer licensing models, exclusive rights for reproduction and distribution, digital-first sales and making room for exceptions and limitations.
Pallante argued for a more flexible and clear copyright act that would help regulate the distribution of content from "fair use in education to statutory licenses for new businesses, to the parameters of liability and enforcement online and in the home."
Until Congress decides on how to better secure copyrights, these are three campus resources for student entrepreneurs to seek out for IP mentoring.
Centers for entrepreneurship
Universities from Oregon to Florida have centers for entrepreneurship, hubs where professors and mentors are ready to help budding entrepreneurs get access to the resources needed to start a business. Often found within the college of business, these centers have answers to questions involving business plans, funding and how to patent or trademark business ideas.
College of law
If your university has an affiliated law school, check to see if it offers an Intellectual Property Law Society or resource center. Groups like the University of Iowa's Intellectual Property Law Society or the University of Maryland's Intellectual Property Legal Resource Center provide students and local entrepreneurs with free legal services and counseling on securing copyrights.
Local chambers of commerce
Chambers of commerce are often tied closely to nearby universities and colleges of business, so finding a mentor to help secure your intellectual property should be fairly easy. The mission of these chambers is to make it easier to do business in the community, so they can help with networking as well as registering your business for an occupational license so you can begin operating.
