MONDAY, June 2, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Breast cancer patients with small-sized "HER2-positive" tumors have a low risk of cancer recurrence, even without chemotherapy and an especially potent drug called trastuzumab, a new study finds.
HER2-positive breast cancer, which accounts for 15 percent to 20 percent of all breast cancer cases in the United States, has been shown to respond well to the antibody medication trastuzumab. However, the drug can cause heart failure in some patients, particularly those who are older and have other diseases, the authors of the new study noted.
"Our results suggest that trastuzumab therapy may not be needed for patients with HER2-positive tumors that are 0.5 centimeters in size or smaller," lead author Dr. Lou Fehrenbacher, medical director of Kaiser Permanente Oncology Clinical Trials and oncologist with Kaiser Permanente Vallejo Medical Center, said in a Kaiser news release.
In the study, Fehrenbacher's team reviewed nearly 17,000 cases of breast cancer diagnosed between 2000 and 2006. They found that 5-year survival without a "distant" recurrence of the tumor was 99 percent for patients with the smallest (0.5 centimeters or less) HER2-positive tumors who did not receive treatment with trastuzumab or get traditional chemotherapy.
Distant recurrence -- cancer that spreads outside the breast to other organs -- is considered to be more life threatening than cancer that recurs in the breast.
The 5-year survival rate without distant recurrence was 97 percent among patients with HER2-positive tumors that were 0.6 to 1 centimeter, according to the study, published June 2 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
Fehrenbacher stressed that the size of the tumor seems to be key. Trastuzumab treatment "should be considered for patients with larger tumors, with stronger consideration as the tumor size nears 1 centimeter," he said.
Two experts were cautiously optimistic about the study results.
"One challenge of treatment is to decide who should be treated and what will be the individual's benefit-and-risk ratio," said Dr. Marleen Meyers, assistant professor in the department of medicine at the Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City.
"While this study is very compelling, the decision to treat a person with HER2-positive breast cancer still needs to be made on an individual basis," she said.
Dr. Amy Tiersten is associate professor of medical oncology at the Icahn School of Medicine in New York City. She said that in early stage HER2-positive breast cancer, the combination of trastuzumab and standard chemotherapy "has been shown to dramatically reduce the risk of the cancer returning."
Tiersten also noted that the new trial is retrospective in nature, and not the "gold-standard" prospective, controlled trial.
However, the new data "reassures us that in these very small [HER2-positive] cancers we may be able to hold off on treatments that have definite side-effects because the chance of a distant recurrence or 'spread' of these cancers is so low without any treatment."

(WMC-TV) - It is the first year the option to provide free lunch to students has been available and Shelby County Schools plans to choose it.
Officials at district headquarters call it a universal free child nutrition program. It will offer free breakfast, lunch, and dinner to all SCS students during the 2014-2015 school year.
"Like me as a working parent, sometimes we're in a rush and the child might not get everything he or she needs," said Charles Wilhite. "So you can be okay thinking that when we get to school, he or she has a free meal, something to count on, to depend on."
At the school board meeting Tuesday night, Central Nutrition Director Tony Geraci explained the district is going this route because it means faster cafeteria service, higher revenue, and simpler administration.
"This is science. When a healthy kid has great food they perform better," said Geraci.
The plan is made possible under the federal Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which was designed to ensure children have access to proper nutrition in high-poverty school districts.
SCS says the way it is reimbursed makes fiscal sense to offer free meals to all students.
"I'm looking forward to it and I can't wait to see it get started," said Wilhite.
The district has filled out its state application, which is not a request for funding, but is simply an official record of the plan with the state and USDA.
Nothing is a done deal until July 1.
Click here to read more about the free breakfast, lunch, and dinner program, how SCS qualifies, and how it is funded.
Here are some details about the plan and the process:
1. The application for this program has been completed by the district, but the application submission period for this program is not until April. (Context: every year, we fill out an application to communicate to thestate and USDA which nutrition service option we will be providing. This year, we are selecting a new option.)
2. 2014-15 is the first year this option of providing universally free meals is available to public school districts in the U.S.
3. The April application will not be followed with an approval or denial response, nor is this an "application for funding." The application simply serves to put our intentions of providing this nutrition service option on official record with the state and USDA.
4. We are already providing universal breakfast and universal supper. This would add universal lunch to our service plan.
5. While superintendent and staff communicated their support for and intent to provide this service in 2014-15 last night, it is not officially a "done deal" until July 1, 2014. This does not require a Board vote.

After holding on a hope that Netflix would pick it up, "Terra Nova" looks pretty much dead now. Multiple sources said that the streaming service has opted to pass on reviving the prehistoric dino series since a deal could not be reached in the talks with studio 20th Century Fox TV.
According to TV Guide, budgeting issue is only one of the sticking points in the discussions. Additionally, a source revealed that international broadcasters may not have been keen on the idea of Netflix serving as the sole U.S. "broadcaster" of "Terra Nova".
Following reports that Netflix gave up on reviving "Terra Nova", Jason O'Mara seemed to be confirming the show's end in recent tweets. "A moment of silence for what has passed and what might have been. #Netflix ends talks to revive our show," he wrote on Monday, January 26.
The Jim Shannon depicter added in another post, "A BIG thank you to the legion of #TerraNova fans all over the world for your passion & support. Had a great time playing Jim. #saditsallover"
"Terra Nova" was officially canceled by FOX in early March after only one season. At that time, the studio said it's trying to keep the show alive by shopping it to other networks and Netflix soon showed an interest to rescue the drama series.

I really need to go shopping. My closet is so empty because I've sold so much stuff. I can't believe next month is back to school. I really think summer is too short or maybe it's just because this summer has been lame. I haven't really done anything too exciting. Hopefully I will have my license by my bday.

Hip. What it used to be was something much different than is commonly referred to as hip today. The past 10 years at least has totally dissolved what hip used to be. Hipsters don't exist anymore, even though there is a group of people that consider themselves hipsters or that other people call hipsters, they simply aren't hipsters. It's been going on for years and i've been struggling to find the culprit or the turning point. Was it the 90's? The last real counter culture movie was Fight Club, however i feel that it was ahead of it's time, and if released now might actually spurn a counter culture. However it merely reached cult status where people who desired the status quo to be splattered on the walls, wistfully and quietly hoped something would happen or someone would do something about it.
Hip was really defined in the beat generation, hip was someone who 'got it' like a secret society member you could pick out in a crowd – a secret scholar, artist, genius, player, socialite – someone who bucked the trends, set the trends or flat out refused to do anything by the social norm. It was the beginning of the counter culture. It spanned decades but seems to have died. I've considered the hippie culture as the death before, but i think it was premature, yes the hippie culture was the advent of the new 'hipster class' where there is a big social movement that yes is bucking the overall trend of society, however was a marketable group, a group that wannabe's and hanger on's would be able to wear a uniform and be a part of the group with out really getting 'it'. However then came punk, and i'm talking about actual punk, not anything that claims to be punk past 1982. Punk died then friends. Anyone who claims to be punk (rich kids trying to join another group to be cool, and call themselves punk). The reason punk isn't punk today? Punk was about smashing all the social norms in the face – it was about anarchy. Tell me what 'punk' kid you know wants that? Not in a society that accepts punks now – where tattoo's, weird hair cuts, funny dress are as an accepted part of society as roided out Ed Hardy Douchebags. If you are apart of something that is accepted by society, than you are not counter culture, and you are not hip. But punk did die. Was that the death? In the 80's the pressure to be cool (look wealthy) started to take off. But you still had the rebels, the undercurrent of hip, people who didn't accept it, not because they were nerds, but because they were hip.
Hip is not wearing trendy clothes. Listening to trendy music. If everyone does it, it's not hip. I laughed when someone told me once that they were shocked to see me dressed a certain way because it was hip – i laughed (cried inside) because it wasn't hip, it was trendy. The two are as a far apart as left wing and right wing americans. Hip was being a part of a small group of people who got 'it'.
What's it? Well that's the thing, if you don't know what 'it' is, you ain't hip. That was always the definition. Think of Kerouac, think how he'd be acting in this generation, you think he'd be a roided out douchebag? Or perhaps a neo-hipster wearing skinny jeans and pretending to be an artist? Doubtful.
I concede that one of the issues of not having a counter-culture anymore is our post modern world which incorporates everything and references everything ad nauseam. What can you do anymore that is different and unique – it's all been done before right?
Game. Game seems to me as the only last vestige of counter culture. It's something not everyone gets, not everyone knows about, not everyone does. Getting game, you get 'it'. A social way of being that only members or people who know about 'it' know what you're doing. Game is the new hip, the new counter culture. If everyone in the room thinks you look hip, it means you fit in, you look normal, you look status quo, you might look good – but you are not 'hip'.
At some point hip changed to being with it. But the 'it' changed somewhere and i still don't know where it died. If game is the new counter-culture, it too is being sucked up by the masses by websites like my own, contributing to the spreading of 'it' to the masses. It's an endless cycle. And as much as Game may be the closest thing to the new counter culture, we are lacking in literature (outside of Roosh and others) that create a cultural shift, a change – we lack movies, actors, painters, musicians to change the way we look at the world, who changes the landscape of our culture. By definition game can't do that, anyone who's famous is just running fame game, and can't influence non-famous guys to run the same.
So i'm reaching the end of this article and i'm left wondering if this mundane bland politically correct world will suffocate in it's replication of boring sameness. Recycle everything and you are left with nothing new. A strong telling of the true state of decay our society is in. I figured the first decade in the new millennium would be this way, and that we wouldn't have a generational imprint until the new decade awaiting us. I may be right, but i may be wrong. I however do not think i can endure another decade of the same. I'm bored, i thought i just had a.d.d. but it's not that, it's just that no one is interesting anymore, not in the least. I'm literally bored to death with most people in 20 minutes. It's only the dying and out of date hipness in my brain that keeps me entertained with people these days, as internally i shake my head at them and mock them endlessly, while smiling and nodding on the surface.
The times my friend, are not changing.

UTAU (not to be confused with the Shugo Chara! character, or Uatu, a Watcher from the Marvel Universe) is a musical voice synthesis program created by Ameya as a freeware response to Vocaloid. Using UTAU is much like using Vocaloid, however there are some differences in usage (which may lead to Damn You, Muscle Memory). Also, UTAU has the feature of importing vocal samples manually, which allows a person to use their own voice in UTAU.Before the appearance of the now popular Teto Kasane, UTAU was virtually unknown. To date, there are over 1500 UTAU voicebanks from all over the world.Near the end of 2009, Ameya created a special voicebank recording style first known as renzokuon, or "continuous sound", also widely called VCV (vowel-consonant-vowel). This allowed UTAU voicebanks to sound much smoother and more human than before. As of recent years, another new recording style, CV-VC (consonant-vowel-vowel-consonant) has became rather popular due to allowing one to create voicebanks for different languages other than Japanese. (Like, for example, english) A Mac version of UTAU, known as UTAU-Synth, has now been released, and a mobile version of the software is in the works.Since all UTAU are essentially OCs, opinions may be conflicting as to how fitting a trope may be. Edit with caution.

Remember when Democrats were so concerned about health care that we had to pass, I mean ram, the legislation down our throats?
Well, after three years of learning what golden little nuggets are in ObamaCare, we can expect it to be a total disaster. Here are 10 highlights:
- Boost insurance costs. Officially the "Affordable Care Act," ObamaCare promised to lower premiums for families. But regulators decided to impose a 3.5% surcharge on insurance plans sold through federally run exchanges. There's also a $63 fee for every person covered by employers. And the law adds a "premium tax" that will require insurers to pay more than $100 billion over the next decade. The congressional Joint Committee on Taxation expects insurers to simply pass this tax onto individuals and small businesses, boosting premiums another 2.5%.
- Push millions off employer coverage. In February, the Congressional Budget Office said that 7 million will likely lose their employer coverage thanks to ObamaCare — nearly twice its previous estimate. That number could be as high as 20 million, the CBO says.
- Cause premiums to skyrocket. In December, state insurance commissioners warned Obama administration officials that the law's market regulations would likely cause "rate shocks," particularly for younger, healthier people forced by ObamaCare to subsidize premiums for those who are older and sicker.
Read the rest here. The middle class gets screwed once again by Democrats.

The phenomenal 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour is the greatest BV Private Reserve made since the 1970 and 1968. The good news is 11,000 cases were produced. The return of this superb Napa classic is fabulous news, and the brilliance of this wine is evidenced by its opaque purple color and its big, sweet, blackberry, cassis, subtle smoke, graphite, and spicy oak-scented nose. Dense and full-bodied with sweet but substantial tannins, thrilling levels of concentration, texture, and richness, and a heady finish, this wine will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age, and last three decades or more. Its time to once again fill your cellars with the BV Private Reserve, one of the historic names in California wine folklore.
(10/ 2009)
Good full red with ruby highlights. Sexy aromas of redcurrant, cherry, strawberry and cedar. Opulent and thick but very young, with an element of inner-mouth floral lift I did not find in the 2006. Here the substantial, firm tannins are sweeter, allowing the berry and floral flavors to linger and build. Stambor describes this as a better-structured version of the 1997. Certainly the best vintage for this wine in recent years.
(6/ 2010)
Firm, ripe, rich and concentrated, full-bodied and tightly focused, with a chewy core of dried currant, mineral, fresh earth, spice, black licorice and dried sage, gaining weight, depth and density and ending with a potent, full-bodied finish. Best from 2011 through 2018.

But which you think would look good on my blog? Bottom one is my current one. The top one is simple and I like that.
I was going through google images and these two are the only one I liked. I might go for looking through DA too.
So tell me what you think :) Leave it to the bottom one or replace it with the top one?

Ishmael (Moby-Dick)
|Created by
|Herman Melville
Ishmael is a fictional character in Herman Melville's Moby-Dick (1851). A minor character, his importance derives from his function as the narrator of the book. In early literary criticism of Moby-Dick, he was either mistaken for the author himself or was wholly overlooked. Yet from the mid-twentieth century onward, increasing attention to narrative technique, in addition to ongoing biographical research, revealed that Melville's prose was no mere autobiography and served to establish Ishmael as a central force in the book. By contrast with his namesake Ishmael from Genesis, who is banished into the desert, Ishmael is wandering upon the sea. Each Ishmael, however, experiences a miraculous rescue; one from thirst, the other as the lone surviving crewmember.
Both Ahab and Ishmael are fascinated by the whale, but whereas Ahab perceives him exclusively as evil, Ishmael keeps an open mind. Ishmael's worldview is not static, as Ahab's is, but flux. "And flux in turn ... is the chief characteristic of Ishmael himself."[1] In the chapter "The Doubloon," Ishmael reports how each spectator sees his own personality reflected in the coin, but does not look at it himself. Only fourteen chapters later, in "The Guilder," does he participate in "what is clearly a recapitulation" of the earlier chapter.[2] The difference is that the surface of the golden sea in "The Guilder" is alive, whereas the surface of the doubloon is unalterably fixed, "only one of several contrasts between Ishmael and Ahab."[3]
Ishmael moves from New York to New Bedford to sign up for a whaling voyage aboard the Pequod, under Captain Ahab. The voyage ends in disaster: Ahab is obsessed by a white whale named Moby Dick, and when he finally encounters him Ahab loses all sense of carefulness and responsibility for his crew, with the result that the whale sinks the ship. All crewmembers drown, with the exception of Ishmael, who keeps himself afloat on a coffin until he is picked up by another whaling ship, the Rachel. It is not known how long after the voyage he begins to tell his adventure, the second sentence's "some years ago" being the only clue. The shaping of his narrative with use of many different genres including sermons, stage plays, soliloquys, emblemetical readings, is itself one important theme.
"The second Ishmael," Bezanson insists, "is not the narrator, not the informing presence, but is the young man of whom, among others, narrator Ishmael tells us in his story. He is simply one of the characters in the novel. ... This is forecastle Ishmael or the younger Ishmael of 'some years ago.'... Narrator Ishmael is merely young Ishmael grown older."[4] In a later essay, Bezanson calls character-Ishmael an innocent "and not even particularly interesting."[5] According to F.O. Matthiessen, the reader would do well not "to forget that the first reason Ishmael gave for going to sea was 'having little or no money in my purse'."[6]
And Ishmael (Old Testament)[edit]
The name Ishmael is Biblical in origin: in Genesis 16:1-16; 17:18-25; 21:6-21; 25:9-17, Ishmael was the son of Abraham by the servant Hagar. In 16:11-12, the most significant verses for Melville's allegory,[7] Hagar was cast off after the birth of Isaac, who inherited the covenant of the Lord instead of his older half-brother.
Melville shapes his allegory to the Biblical Ishmael as follows:
- Biblical Ishamel is banished to "the wilderness of Beer-sheba," while the narrator of Moby-Dick wanders, in his own words in "the wilderness of waters."[8] In the Bible the desert or wilderness is a common setting for a vision of one kind to another.[9] By contrast, Melville's Ishmael takes to sea searching for insights.
- In Genesis, Hagar was visited by an angel who instructed her to call her still unborn child Yishma'el, meaning "God shall hear." The prophecy in the name was fulfilled when Ishmael, perishing in the desert, was saved by a miracle: the sudden appearance of a well of water.[10] In Moby-Dick, only Ishmael escapes the sinking of the Pequod, and "that by a margin so narrow as to seem miraculous."[11]
And so the name points to a Biblical analogy that marks Ishmael as the prototype of "wanderer and outcast,"[12] the man set at odds with his fellows. Wright says that all Melville's heroes--with the exception of Benito Cereno and Billy Budd--are manifestations of Ishmael, and four are actually identified with him: Redburn, Ishmael, Pierre, and Pitch from The Confidence-Man.[13]
As Narrator[edit]
According to M.H. Abrams, Ishmael ranks among the middle category of first-person narration types. Abrams's outer categories are: a narrator who is only "a fortuitous witness," or a narrator who is "the central character in the story." Ishmael, then, is "only a minor or peripheral" character in the story he tells (Abrams cites Nick of The Great Gatsby as another example of this device).[14] "The first Ishmael is the enfolding sensibility of the novel, the hand that writes the tale, the imagination through which all matters of the book pass. He is the narrator"[15] From time to time shifts of tense indicate that "while forecastle Ishmael is busy hunting whales narrator Ishmael is sifting memory and imagination in search of the many meanings of the dark adventure he has experienced."
The narrator explicitly states that he has experienced but not yet fully understood his adventures: "'It was the whiteness of the whale that above all things appalled me. But how can I hope to explain myself here; and yet, in some dim, random way, explain myself I must, else all these chapters might be naught.'"[16] Narrator-Ishmael demonstrates "an insatiable curiosity" and an "inexhaustible sense of wonder."[17] This Ishmael must be equated with Melville himself, and Bezanson suggests "we resist any one-to-one equation of Melville and Ishmael."[18] As the phrase "Ishmael's richly allusive text" indicates, Bezanson even attributes characteristic Melvillean features to the narrator, who in the Epilogue, likens himself to "another Ixion".[19]
Thanks to Joyce and Faulkner, the modern reader of Moby-Dick may easily get used to "the discontinuities in manner and genre."[20] Critic Robert Zoellner sees no breaking down of Ishmael's role as narrator, for if Ishmael can "speculate on Ahab's purposes" in chapter 46, then he can also "imagine a soliloquy" by Ahab.[21] Of the book is "frequently said" that Melville did not pay a great deal of attention to point of view, "and of course this is true" in the sophisticated Jamesian sense of the technique. Yet Bezanson insists that it would be a mistake "to think the narrator indifferent to how his tale is told," because the narrator's "struggle" with the shaping of his narrative is "under constant discussion, is itself one of the major themes of the book."[22] Ishmael uses, among other genres and styles, a sermon, a dream, a comic set-piece, a midnight ballet, a meditation, an emblematic reading.[23]
Abrams cites the publication of The Art of the Novel, Henry James's collected prefaces to his various novels, in 1934 as one contribution that made point of view "one of the most prominent and persistent concerns in modern treatments of the art of prose fiction."[24] His list of further reading includes Norman Friedman, "Point of View in Fiction", PMLA 70 (1955). The development of the critical view of Ishmael as a fictional narrator rather than Melville under another name reflects this growing sophistication in the study of narrative technique.
During the early decades of the Melville revival, Ishmael has been confused with Melville, whose works were perceived as straight autobiography by his early biographers. Matthiessen complained that "most of the criticism of our past masters has been perfunctorily tacked onto biographies" and to expose the "modern fallacy" of the "direct reading of an author's personal life into his works."[25] As scholars began to discover Melville's use of sources, his works have gradually been taken less and less for strict autobiography. Together with the focus on narrative technique that became en vogue in literary studies in the 1950s, this has led scholars to distinguish Ishmael from Melville himself.
In 1948 Howard P. Vincent, in his study The Trying-Out of Moby-Dick, had "warned against forgetting the narrator."[26] Robert Zoellner says that "traditional criticism" argues that Ishmael's role as narrator "breaks down" either when Ahab and Stubb "have a conversation off by themselves" in chapter 29 or else when Ishmael reports "the soliloquy of Ahab sitting alone" in chapter 37.[27]

Microsoft needs an intervention
At some point you have to really feel for the Microsoft employees who care about the company and are passionate about the products they are responsible for. There comes a point though where even the most passionate employee must begin to wonder why they are bothering. With Ballmer leading the company on the fool's errand of trying to pull off a merger of Microsoft and Yahoo much is being made of trying to create some kind of synergy and blending of two different corporate cultures with the incoming Yahoo employees. What isn't being talked about that much is how are the Microsoft employees reacting to all of this.
In a post today Mary Jo Foley does indeed talk about just this and take away on it from what she has been able to find out isn't very good. With some Microsoft employees looking to move into any newly created Yahoo related teams as soon as they can to other employees pointing fingers at badly managed sections of the company the internal picture isn't looking very good to say the least.
As Mary Jo quotes one anonymous source as telling her
"No one wants it (the Microsoft-Yahoo merger) to happen. The only reason it's being considered is that the management of Windows Live has been so ineffective that they can't ship anything worth using. They are consistently behind what consumers want, and unlike the old Microsoft, they are so poorly managed that they can't even copy everyone else. "
My feeling though is that as bad as the internal conflicts are for Microsoft it is only a smaller part of a much larger problem with the company.

The hip-hugging flare cut of these pants makes them a flattering choice for going to the gym, a day out with friends or an evening on the couch. The elastic waist, two pocket design makes the Roxy Tuned In Fleece Pants as practical and comfortable as they are cute. The 100% polyester jacquard anti-pill fleece material will keep these pants looking great even if you wear them several times a week for years... which you will.
Tuned In
I love these pants; bought them more than 2 years ago, and still wear them all the time! They're holding up pretty well considering all the washes.

It's literal couples tennis. Emanda and Daniel versus Tyler and Ashley. Emanda is smoking cross court shots against Tyler who's struggling to return. Emanda wins the match and everyone is super impressed except Tyler. He invites everyone out for lunch, but Ashley can't go because she has to plan the charity event. Well, how about hitting up a nightclub? Daniel tells Tyler he's avoiding nightclubs this summer and Emanda chimes in to remind Dan of fake plans they have for dinner tonight anyway so he can save face with his friend. Tyler's face gets a little scrunchy because he's not an idiot, but all should be OK because Ashley can go to the club tonight with him. Right?
Poor Porter Bar. Jack has an envelope of his father's valuables from his safety deposit box, which he proceeds to empty out onto the counter in front of Dec. "Valuables" being simply a formality of a word. The only cash in there is the first dollar the Stowaway Bar ever made back in the 70s. Mrs. Porter's wedding ring is in there, but Jack thinks they should hang on to family heirlooms. Declan's like, "Speaking of heirlooms..." and suggests they try to sell the bar. Jack's not entirely opposed to the idea since it could mean money for Declan to finish school and for him to finally set sail to Haiti. He agrees to see how much they'd make after paying off the loan on the bar. Dec is so excited.
It turns out Victoria is a patient of Dr. Banks, as well. In session, she talks about being worried about her future with Conrad. This recent accusation about the Kingsly thing actually bothered her, but she won't dignify it enough to tell Michelle what Conrad's accusation was. Victoria sits in reflection after making her point and Dr. Banks asks what she's thinking about. "The past," Victoria replies as the first notes of Agnes Obel's "Riverside" begin to play. We cut to Emanda watching this exchange on her laptop and being caught a little off guard by Victoria's dwelling on the past. She pauses the video and brings up another. It's a surveillance video of Little Amanda sitting on a bed in some institution cell beside Dr. Banks. She promises her psychiatrist she'll be good and asks if she can see her dad. Saying she'll be good isn't good enough for Michelle because Amanda could just be pretending. FLASHBACK: We're in the scene depicted in the video now. Dr. Banks explains she can't trust Little Amanda because her father pretended to be good, too. Amanda insists her father really was good. Michelle gets up to leave and Amanda starts begging not to be left in her cell, promising she'll be a good girl. The doctor stops and turns in the doorway to explain again Amanda would just be pretending. "People who aren't who they claim to be, Amanda, are very, very dangerous. You would be wise to remember that." Can't say the girl doesn't take advice. Michelle shuts the door on Amanda. /FLASHBACK. Emanda watches the rest of the video of Little Amanda crying and banging on her cell door, pleading to be let out. The video ends and Emanda turns to open up a magazine with an article about Victoria's upcoming charity tea with a photo of her and Michelle. Emanda circles the doctor. Evil Emanda stare.

This will be the season of playing against coaches who told Steve Ross thanks, but no thanks. Jeff Fisher, center, kept everyone in suspense for a week before he picked the Rams over the Dolphins. Sam Bradford, left, and the ability to probably draft Robert Griffin III led Fisher to think the quarterback situation in St. Louis was much more attractive than it was down here. Steven Jackson, right, remains a stalwart running back, albeit one who gets nicked up frequently.

Cooling demand from the recently buoyant Chinese market for business jets is set to result in weaker overall sales for 2012, Gulfstream Aerospace president Larry Flynn said this week at Jet Expo in Moscow. The U.S. manufacturer has seen a dip in new orders from China this year in a reversal of last year's market conditions in which Flynn said, "Overheated orders from China drove our 2011 sales well ahead of plan."
Having achieved some success in lifting import taxes for some foreign-made business aircraft, the Russian United Business Aviation Association (RUBAA) has said it will not lobby to eliminate duties for aircraft weighing more than 20 metric tons (44,000 pounds) operating empty weight (OEW). The decision, which is likely to frustrate Western aircraft manufacturers, was this week during Jet Expo 2012 in Moscow.
Embraer brought a newly completed example of its Lineage 1000 bizliner to Moscow's Jet Expo show in a bid to build on the success it has already had in Russia with the super-midsize Legacy 600/650. Ernest Edwards, president of the Brazilian manufacturer's Executive Jets division, declined to say whether the company has yet achieved any Lineage sales in Russia, but he insisted that the airplane is set to do well in a market that has favored larger aircraft. "There is no other aircraft in this segment that can carry 19 passengers and sells for $54 million," he told AIN.
Business aviation traffic in Russia will show a slight increase this year as the sector continues to buck the trend seen in the country's commercial traffic overall, which saw a significant fall in 2011. Official figures also show that the increase represents stagnation compared with more rapid initial growth in the sector. The prognosis for 2012 is that the number of business aviation flights in Russia will increase from 152,500 to 154,000 flights, with just more than half of these being made by foreign operators.
Russian aircraft interiors specialist AviaPrestige has forged an alliance with business aviation services group Avcom to make cabin refurbishment more readily available to aircraft owners in Russia. At Jet Expo this week in Moscow, the company announced that it has established a facility within the Avcom's engineering base at Moscow Domodedovo Airport so that interior work can be done while aircraft are undergoing maintenance there.
Bombardier's Global 6000 aircraft, featuring its Global Vision flight deck, attracted a lot of attention at this week's Jet Expo show in Moscow. The Canadian airframer hopes the appearance of the new long-range model will boost its position in a Russian market, where it already claims the number one slot with a 35 percent share of deliveries in terms of business aircraft registered in Russia or operated by local operators.
The Vaso factory of Russia's United Aircraft Corp. (UAC) is completing a pair of VIP-equipped Ilyushin Il-96 jets under a contract from the Russian government worth approximately $333 million. Both of the four-engined aircraft will be used by the office of Russian President Vladimir Putin and operated by the country's Special Air Detachment.
Daher-Socata's TBM850 single-engine turboprop is making its fourth appearance at Moscow's Jet Expo show this week, but the first since the aircraft received type certification for the Commonwealth of Independent States, including Russia.
Russia's seventh annual Jet Expo show opens tomorrow, with more than 100 exhibiting companies from 27 countries and up to around 40 business jets and helicopters at Moscow's Vnukovo Airport. According to Jet Expo managing director Nikita Gorchakov, the rapid expansion of the three-day show (September 27-29) reflects strong growth in demand for business aircraft in Russia and the wider Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
The Russian United Business Aviation Association (RUBAA) is seeking to broaden its membership base during this week's Jet Expo show in Moscow. The group changed its structure earlier this year so that it is no longer confined to representing purely Russian aircraft owners and operators. It now wants to attract the support of international business aviation manufacturers and service providers.

If you have trouble playing the meditations
The meditations may not play on Firefox. If this happens on your system, please switch to Chrome, Internet Explorer or Safari.
If you felt tense or numb…
Many of us numb ourselves and learn to ignore our emotions by squeezing our muscles tight and holding our breath. Consequently, it is only by learning to relax your body and breathe deeply that you will become emotionally aware.
Maintain slow relaxed breathing throughout the meditation:
- Close your eyes and take several slow, deep breaths, releasing your thoughts each time you exhale.
- Exhale as much air as you inhaled.
- For a deeper sensation, try repeating the phrases "soft belly" and "soft chest" as you breathe in and out.
If you had trouble identifying and exploring emotions…
There are two ways to trigger emotional exploration:
- Ask yourself what emotion you're experiencing right now and explore the physical sensations related to that emotion.
- Recall an emotional memory, an event from your past that disturbed or upset you, and direct your focus to the physical sensations that memory triggers.
The second option can be more intense if the emotional memory continues to force its way into your life or trouble you in other ways. Keep the recall process as short as possible—just long enough to return your focus to the physical sensations the memory evokes in your body.

Long, Porcaro Shine In Horizon League Tournament Opener
May 24, 2013
NILES, Ohio - Senior Jake Long was at it again, allowing just one run in a complete-game effort as the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee baseball team opened play in the 2013 Horizon League Tournament with a 6-1 victory over Wright State University Friday at Eastwood Field.
After being honored pregame for the specialty awards they claimed earlier this week, Long and sophomore Michael Porcaro helped lead the Panthers (29-19) to a win over the Raiders (23-29), their eighth-straight victory overall.
Long (8-3), the Horizon League Pitcher of the Year, tossed a gem. He was perfect through three innings in recording his fifth complete game of the season. Long allowed just five hits and one run, tying his career-high with eight strikeouts while not walking a batter.
"I know our guys were antsy to play after sitting around all day yesterday and then Jake came out and just gave us a great start and we played great defense behind him," UWM head coach Scott Doffek said.
Porcaro, the Horizon League Player of the Year, got Milwaukee on the board with a sacrifice fly in the first inning and came through with a two-run single in a big second-inning rally.
"If you look at that inning, we had a bunch of quality at bats, but more than that, we really put some pressure on their defense on the basepaths," Doffek said. "If you can do that, it's hard to defend. We are excited to get that one under our belts and are excited to come back out tomorrow and put it all together again."
That offensive outburst gave UWM control and Long did the rest. The Panther sent 10 batters to the plate, scoring five runs on the strength of five hits. Following a pair of walks, senior Alex Erdmann dropped a single over the shortstop's head to drive in a pair and get things going. Sophomore Luke Meeteer followed with a solid single up the middle to make it 4-0.
Porcaro then tacked on two more when his single went off the glove of the drawn-in, diving third baseman and into left field.
Porcaro finished 2-for-3 with three runs batted in. Sophomore Derek Peake (2-for-4, 2 runs, 2 stolen bases), Meeteer (2 hits, run scored, RBI, two steals) and junior Ryan Solberg (2-for-3, run) all came through with big days at the plate.
With the tournament schedule adjusted due to the weather Thursday, the Panthers are done for the day and will not play again until Saturday. They will take on Valparaiso University in the first game of the day, set to start at 10 a.m. CST at Eastwood Field.

How to Hire a New York City Divorce Lawyer
If you are considering a divorce or if your spouse has filed for divorce, you are going through a difficult emotional time. You probably have a lot of questions about your rights, what will happen to your children (if you have any) and how divorce works in New York. If you have never hired a New York City divorce lawyer before, you will need to find one who can help you through the process. This article will describe the steps to take to find a lawyer who focuses on divorce proceedings in New York.
As you move through the divorce process, you need an attorney who has experience with divorce in New York. Consider that, under New York divorce law, marital property is divided equitably. That doesn't mean that you are entitled to half, only that the division is "fair." A knowledgeable attorney will help ensure that you get what you are entitled to when you get a divorce in New York City.
You should also know that the issues in your divorce will be different if you are seeking a New York City uncontested divorce or if you and your soon-to-be-ex can't agree about property division, child support, custody or other issues.
Finding New York City Divorce Lawyers
Regardless of the issues, you need to find the right lawyer for your specific situation. You can start by asking friends, relatives and coworkers if they have any recommendations for New York divorce attorneys. Recommendations can be very useful, but remember that your situation is unique. The right lawyer for one person may not be one you feel comfortable with or who understands your goals in your divorce. You also need an attorney you can afford.
You can also use a web site like Attorneys.com. Whether you live on Long Island, the Upper East Side, Westchester or elsewhere in the New York metropolitan area, by providing a few simple pieces of information, you will be connected with an attorney who has experience with New York divorce law. You can complete the form on this site or call 1-877-913-7222 to get started. You can contact the lawyer directly or the attorney will reach out to you within two business days.
Meeting with a Lawyer about Your Divorce
Next, you should schedule an initial consultation. The initial consultation, which gives you the chance for you to get to know the lawyer and decide whether you want to hire him, is usually free, but it's a good idea to double check first.
When you meet a divorce lawyer for the first time, bring all your relevant information. This can include prenuptial agreements, financial documentation, deeds and mortgages of property you own with or without your spouse, and other records. If you have children, spend some time thinking about the child custody and child support agreements you would like to seek in the divorce.
If you feel threatened in any way by your spouse, you should ask the lawyer about whether getting an order of protection.
You will have a lot to talk about during your initial consultation, so prepare a list of questions ahead of time. Be sure to ask about child custody and support, if that's appropriate in your situation. You should ask about your assets and how those could be divided in the divorce. If you may be eligible for alimony, or you think your spouse may seek it, be sure to ask about that. Bring a notepad and pen or pencil, so you can write down everything and refer back to it later.
Choosing the Right Lawyer for You
After the initial consultation, write down your impressions and refer back to them when you are ready to choose an attorney. A divorce is an emotional, life-changing event, and it's particularly important that you feel comfortable with and trust your New York City divorce lawyer.
If you are still not sure, get references from the lawyer and talk to those references. Ask about their experiences. Once you have made up your mind and hired the right New York City divorce lawyer for you, you can move forward with the proceedings.
