Arthur M. Sackler Museum, 485 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138
Jeffrey F. Hamburger, Kuno Francke Professor of German Art and Culture, Department of History of Art and Architecture, Harvard University. Lynette Roth, Daimler-Benz Associate Curator of the Busch Reisinger Museum, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art, Harvard Art Museums
German artists of the 20th century, most famously Brücke expressionists, consciously employed the medium of wood in their practice, playing up its associations with the medieval and "primitive" traditions. In conjunction with a special display focusing on disparate objects made from the same material, Hamburger and Roth will discuss the intersections between medieval and modern art in wood, from a 15th-century Madonna and Child to expressionist printmaking and sculpture.
This series considers objects from more than one point of view. The informal talks, many of them by Harvard Art Museums curators, conservators, and educators and Harvard University faculty members, are designed to stimulate thinking about works of art and to encourage participants to explore their own ways of seeing.
Free with the price of admission.
Gallery talks are informal and include discussion. Limited to 25 participants; please arrive early.

On one of the most mountainous stages of the USA Pro Challenge, BMC Racing Team's Tejay van Garderen chased hard going up, while teammate Mathias Frank helped with the pursuit going down. But ultimately, it was not enough to prevent van Garderen from losing the overall lead Wednesday.
Loss Of Lead Provides 'Extra Motivation'
Van Garderen conceded the race leader's yellow jersey to Christian Vande Velde (Garmin-Sharp) on tie-breaker criteria. The two came into the day tied on overall time and both finished in a group of 26 who arrived two seconds after solo winner Tom Danielson (Garmin-Sharp). But the relevant criteria to determine the race leader – first to the sum of the stage placings (both totaled 30) and then to placings on the last stage ridden – favored Vande Velde. He finished ninth in the 210.1 kilometer race, three places ahead of van Garderen. "Yes, I am disappointed," van Garderen said. "But this gives me a little extra motivation for the upcoming days. I don't see anything really changing in the dynamics of the race. It's still going to come down to the time trial on Sunday in Denver."
Stage 2 Timing In Question
BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Michael Sayers said he filed a protest regarding the results of Tuesday's race after officials judged that Vande Velde crossed the finish line in the same time as van Garderen, who won the stage. Sayers said officials told him they would review the result and issue a ruling Thursday. Regardless of that outcome, Sayers said he was proud of the way the BMC Racing Team defended the lead on a stage that included ascents of two major mountain passes. "We worked very hard as a team to bring Danielson's group back," he said. "It was on pins and needles the whole day. The team rode way better than you could have ever believed and we were a really strong unit today."
All But One Brought Back
Danielson was the last of more than a dozen riders who had been part of a breakaway the BMC Racing Team had kept in check for three-quarters of the race. Over the summit, he led by 1:45 over van Garderen's small chase group. But Mathias – after catching back on the descent – worked hard to shrink the gap over the final 20 kilometers as the chase grew grew. "Garmin put a lot of pressure on us on the first climb," Frank said. "But we did everything we could to defend the jersey." Thursday's 156.5 km stage will climb two mountains before finishing with a four-kilometer climb. "Really, for the team, it's not so bad to lose the lead," Frank said. "Garmin will have to defend. And for Tejay, it's good because he is still tied on time."

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (May 29, 2011)—Owner Marsha Naify and trainer Julio Canani made it two stakes wins in a span of less than 24 hours when Givine captured the $73,250 Great Lady M. Sunday at Hollywood Park.
After winning the $150,000 American Handicap Saturday with 8-1 shot Ryehill Dreamer, who edged favored Sidney's Candy by a nose, Naify and Canani scored again as Givine, the 7-2 third choice, finish strongly in the final eighth of a mile to overtake Separate Forest and favored Broken Dreams.
Making her first start since finishing eighth of nine in her United States debut as the 19-10 favorite in the Wishing Well Jan. 30 at Santa Anita, the 4-year-old French bred prevailed by a half-length. The gray daughter of Blackdoun and the Double Bed mare Viguerie completed the six furlongs on turf in 1:08.26 while winning by a half-length.
The final time was the second fastest in the Great Lady M. since the race was lengthened to its current distance in 2007. River's Prayer won in 1:08.21 in 2007. The first 12 runnings of the race were 5 ½ furlongs on turf.
Successful for the sixth time in 10 starts, Givine increased her bankroll to $145,432. She paid $9.60, $3.80 and $2.60.
Separate Forest, who had upset Unzip Me in the Las Cienegas Handicap April 9 at Santa Anita in her previous race on grass, paid $3.60 and $2.20. She saved the place by a half-length over Broken Dreams. The 9-10 choice paid 2.10 to show. Ultra Awesome, who set the pace at 39-1, and Lunar Mist completed the order of finish.
"The first time in this country she was a little green coming down the hill at Santa Anita,'' said Rosario, who leads all riders at the Spring/Summer meet with seven stakes victories. "She kind of ran off and didn't know where she was going crossing the dirt. Today she was nice and relaxed. She wasn't pulling me at all.''
Rosario won twice more Sunday to pad his advantage in the jockey standings. The defending champion at the Spring/Summer meet, Rosario has 29 victories, five more than Rafael Bejarano and Joe Talamo.
Two races after the Great Lady M., Smash picked up his second win in three starts, defeating stablemate Hoorayforhollywood by a nose in the $52,400 optional claimer.
Owned by Kaleem Shah and trained by Bob Baffert, the 3-year-old son of Smart Strike out of the Dixieland Band mare Dixie Holiday ran the 6 ½ furlongs in 1:15.64. Ridden by Martin Garcia, he paid $3 as the 1-2 favorite.
The victory was the first of two for the Baffert-Garcia combination. They also won the eighth with 2-1 second choice Prayer for Relief.
Through 24 days of the meet, Baffert is second in the trainer's race. He has 11 wins, two less than leader Mike Mitchell.
Racing resumes Monday. Post time is 1 p.m.
There is a grab bag giveaway – one per paid admission while supplies last. All veterans and active duty personnel – with military identification – will be admitted free in honor of the Memorial Day holiday.
The 10 race card features a pair of graded stakes, topped by the $250,000 Gamely. The first Grade I offered at the Spring/Summer meet, the Gamely is for older fillies and mares at 1 1/8 miles on turf.
One race before the Gamely – which goes as the ninth – sprinters will get together in the $100,000 Los Angeles Handicap. A Grade III, the Los Angeles will be contested at six furlongs over Cushion Track.

On Saturday just after 10 p.m., a Bartow County Sheriff's Office deputy was dispatched to a Brandy Lane address in reference to a medical call later to be determined as an aggravated assault under the Family Violence Act, according to an incident report.
Upon arrival, the deputy met with the victim who was sitting on the front porch of the residence being treated for a large laceration to his shoulder by Bartow County EMS personnel. When asked if he had been in a physical altercation with anyone, the victim stated "no," but that he had fallen down the back porch steps. He stated that his girlfriend, Jory Bricker, was inside the residence.
The deputy stated upon entering the residence to speak with Bricker, that he noticed the residence was in disarray which led the deputy to believe a physical altercation had taken place.
When speaking to Bricker, who appeared to be intoxicated, she stated she was tired of the boyfriend "beating on her" and said he had punched her several times in the head, but she did not know how the male victim got stabbed in the shoulder.
After speaking with the victim a second time, the victim stated Bricker stabbed him with a knife, but that he did not want her to go to jail. He admitted the two had been in an argument, but denied hitting her.
While being treated by Bartow EMS, the victim admitted to another deputy of striking Bricker in the head to stop her from stabbing him.
The responding deputy later found the weapon, a butcher knife with blood on it, which was taken into evidence.
The victim was transported to Cartersville Medical Center and Bricker was placed under arrest for aggravated assault under the Family Violence Act and transported to the Bartow County jail without incident.
While the victim stated the girlfriend suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, the responding deputy was advised of a special condition bond between the couple. The woman was later charged with aggravated stalking (FVA) along with aggravated assault (FVA).
Car stolen on Dripping Rock Trail
On Saturday morning, a BCSO deputy was dispatched to 13 Dripping Rock Trail, Cartersville, in reference to theft by taking auto. Upon arrival, the deputy met with the complainant, who stated his car was last seen in front of the residence about 8 p.m. the night before.
The complainant stated he normally leaves his keys on the dashboard or on the center console of his car and he was not sure who might have taken it.
The deputy informed the complainant that two black male subjects were seen in his car the previous evening about 8 p.m. attempting to avoid a safety road check conducted by the BCSO. When a deputy attempted to conduct a vehicle stop on the vehicle, the subjects drove away then stopped at a closed gas station known as Paw Paw's, at which time both subjects exited the vehicle and ran away. One subject was located, arrested and transported to the Bartow County jail and will be questioned as to the name of the other subject.
The complainant stated he wished to pursue charges.
Speeding SUV had drug compartments
On June 12 just before 4:30 p.m., BCSO deputies discovered a speeding SUV with a false compartment and marijuana, according to an incident report.
A BCSO deputy was conducting speed enforcement at the time on U.S. Highway 411 when he advised by another deputy that he had clocked a black Jeep Cherokee traveling eastbound going 74 mph in a 55 mph zone.
The initial deputy observed a black Jeep Cherokee traveling east and the deputy initiated a traffic stop approaching the Kingston Highway 293 overpass, but the vehicle signaled as though to pull over to the right-hand shoulder and continued to travel east at a continually slower speed. The vehicle then pulled over at the split to U.S. Highway 41, continuing to operate its turn signal.
As the deputy approached the rear driver's side door, he detected a strong odor of marijuana and made contact with the driver, Stephen Davis, who was later arrested. The driver advised he and the passenger, Rex Page, who also was later arrested, were on their way to Atlanta and he was unaware of the speed limit on this stretch of roadway. However, Davis did confirm he had driven the route to Atlanta several times.
While speaking with Davis, the deputy observed both he and Page physically appeared to be nervous. Due to the odor of marijuana and the nervous behavior of the two, the deputy requested backup.
Upon the second deputy's arrival, the initial deputy asked the driver if there were any illegal items in the vehicle and asked permission to search the vehicle. Davis stated he did not give his permission, but the deputy stated because of the strong odor of marijuana he had probable cause to search the vehicle and he was going to do so.
Upon looking in the vehicle, the deputy observed a beverage in the passenger side drink console that smelled like alcohol. While opening the glove box, the deputy stated he observed the door to the box to be very wide, almost falling to the floor, and what appeared to be gray tape behind the box in an area that is not normally accessed by persons.
In the rear passenger side area between the seat and center console, the deputy observed a multi-colored pipe with what appeared to be marijuana inside. Also behind the front passenger side seat the deputy located a blue pack with an open bottle of beer, which Page claimed was his.
The deputy asked his backup to assist with the search, during which the initial deputy located two small glass jars under the rear middle seat cushion, both containing two small baggies of what appeared to be marijuana. At that point, both the driver and passenger were placed into the rear seat of the assisting deputy's car and the Jeep was towed to the Bartow-Cartersville Drug Task Force office. Both Davis and Page were transported to the Bartow County jail without incident.
After following the tow truck to the DTF office and upon further examination, the initial deputy determined the area behind the glove box appeared to be a false compartment. A DTF commander advised he was able to disable the compartment so that the vehicle was able to be released back to the owner per state law, and the vehicle was then released to Matthew Smith Towing to be placed in their lot until released to the owner.

Adult primary liver cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the liver.
The liver is one of the largest organs in the body. It has four lobes and fills the upper right side of the abdomen inside the rib cage. The liver has many important functions, including:
Anatomy of the liver. The liver is in the upper abdomen near the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, and pancreas. The liver has four lobes. Two lobes are on the front and two small lobes (not shown) are on the back of the liver.
This summary refers to the treatment of primary liver cancer (cancer that begins in the liver). Treatment of metastatic liver cancer, which is cancer that begins in other parts of the body and spreads to the liver, is not discussed in this summary. Primary liver cancer can occur in both adults and children. Treatment for children, however, is different than treatment for adults. (See the PDQ summary on Childhood Liver Cancer Treatment for more information.)
Having hepatitis or cirrhosis can affect the risk of developing adult primary liver cancer.
Anything that increases your chance of getting a disease is called a risk factor. Having a risk factor does not mean that you will get cancer; not having risk factors doesn't mean that you will not get cancer. People who think they may be at risk should discuss this with their doctor. The following are possible risk factors for adult primary liver cancer:
Possible signs of adult primary liver cancer include a lump or pain on the right side.
These symptoms may be caused by swelling of the liver. These and other symptoms may be caused by adult primary liver cancer or by other conditions. A doctor should be consulted if any of the following problems occur:
Tests that examine the liver and the blood are used to detect (find) and diagnose adult primary liver cancer.
The following tests and procedures may be used:
Certain factors affect prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options.
The prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options depend on the following:
Prognosis is also affected by alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels.
After adult primary liver cancer has been diagnosed, tests are done to find out if cancer cells have spread within the liver or to other parts of the body.
The process used to find out if cancer has spread within the liver or to other parts of the body is called staging. The information gathered from the staging process determines the stage of the disease. It is important to know the stage in order to plan treatment. The following tests and procedures may be used in the staging process:
There are three ways that cancer spreads in the body.
The three ways that cancer spreads in the body are:
When cancer cells break away from the primary (original) tumor and travel through the lymph or blood to other places in the body, another (secondary) tumor may form. This process is called metastasis. The secondary (metastatic) tumor is the same type of cancer as the primary tumor. For example, if breast cancer spreads to the bones, the cancer cells in the bones are actually breast cancer cells. The disease is metastatic breast cancer, not bone cancer.
The following stages are used for adult primary liver cancer:
Stage I
In stage I, there is one tumor and it has not spread to nearby blood vessels.
Pea, peanut, walnut, and lime show tumor sizes.
Stage II
In stage II, one of the following is found:
Stage III
Stage III is divided into Stage IIIA, IIIB, and IIIC.
Stage IV
In stage IV, cancer has spread beyond the liver to other places in the body, such as the bones or lungs. The tumors may be of any size and may also have spread to nearby blood vessels and/or lymph nodes.
For adult primary liver cancer, stages are also grouped according to how the cancer may be treated. There are 3 treatment groups:
Localized resectable
The cancer is found in the liver only, has not spread, and can be completely removed by surgery.
Localized and locally advanced unresectable
The cancer is found in the liver only and has not spread, but cannot be completely removed by surgery.
Cancer has spread throughout the liver or has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lungs and bone.
Recurrent adult primary liver cancer is cancer that has recurred (come back) after it has been treated. The cancer may come back in the liver or in other parts of the body.
There are different types of treatment for patients with adult primary liver cancer.
Different types of treatments are available for patients with adult primary liver cancer. Some treatments are standard (the currently used treatment), and some are being tested in clinical trials. A treatment clinical trial is a research study meant to help improve current treatments or obtain information on new treatments for patients with cancer. When clinical trials show that a new treatment is better than the standard treatment, the new treatment may become the standard treatment. Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial. Some clinical trials are open only to patients who have not started treatment.
Five types of standard treatment are used:
The following types of surgery may be used to treat liver cancer:
Radiation therapy
Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment that uses high-energy x-rays or other types of radiation to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing. Radiation therapy is given in different ways:
The way the radiation therapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.
Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. When chemotherapy is taken by mouth or injected into a vein or muscle, the drugs enter the bloodstream and can reach cancer cells throughout the body (systemic chemotherapy). When chemotherapy is placed directly into the cerebrospinal fluid, an organ, or a body cavity such as the abdomen, the drugs mainly affect cancer cells in those areas (regional chemotherapy).
Regional chemotherapy is usually used to treat liver cancer. A small pump containing anticancer drugs may be placed in the body. The pump puts the drugs directly into the blood vessels that go to the tumor.
Another type of regional chemotherapy is chemoembolization of the hepatic artery. The anticancer drug is injected into the hepatic artery through a catheter (thin tube). The drug is mixed with a substance that blocks the artery, cutting off blood flow to the tumor. Most of the anticancer drug is trapped near the tumor and only a small amount of the drug reaches other parts of the body. The blockage may be temporary or permanent, depending on the substance used to block the artery. The tumor is prevented from getting the oxygen and nutrients it needs to grow. The liver continues to receive blood from the hepatic portal vein, which carries blood from the stomach and intestine.
The way the chemotherapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.
Percutaneous ethanol injection
Percutaneous ethanol injection is a cancer treatment in which a small needle is used to inject ethanol (alcohol) directly into a tumor to kill cancer cells. The procedure may be done once or twice a week. Usually local anesthesia is used, but if the patient has many tumors in the liver, general anesthesia may be needed.
Targeted therapy
Targeted therapy is a treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific cancer cells without harming normal cells. Adult liver cancer may be treated with a targeted therapy drug that stops cells from dividing and prevents the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow.
See Drugs Approved for Liver Cancer for more information.
New types of treatment are being tested in clinical trials.
This summary section describes treatments that are being studied in clinical trials. It may not mention every new treatment being studied. Information about clinical trials is available from the NCI Web site.
Hyperthermia therapy
Hyperthermia therapy is a type of treatment in which body tissue is exposed to high temperatures to damage and kill cancer cells or to make cancer cells more sensitive to the effects of radiation and certain anticancer drugs. Because some cancer cells are more sensitive to heat than normal cells are, the cancer cells die and the tumor shrinks.
Biologic therapy
Biologic therapy is a treatment that uses the patient's immune system to fight cancer. Substances made by the body or made in a laboratory are used to boost, direct, or restore the body's natural defenses against cancer. This type of cancer treatment is also called biotherapy or immunotherapy.
Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial.
For some patients, taking part in a clinical trial may be the best treatment choice. Clinical trials are part of the cancer research process. Clinical trials are done to find out if new cancer treatments are safe and effective or better than the standard treatment.
Many of today's standard treatments for cancer are based on earlier clinical trials. Patients who take part in a clinical trial may receive the standard treatment or be among the first to receive a new treatment.
Patients who take part in clinical trials also help improve the way cancer will be treated in the future. Even when clinical trials do not lead to effective new treatments, they often answer important questions and help move research forward.
Patients can enter clinical trials before, during, or after starting their cancer treatment.
Some clinical trials only include patients who have not yet received treatment. Other trials test treatments for patients whose cancer has not gotten better. There are also clinical trials that test new ways to stop cancer from recurring (coming back) or reduce the side effects of cancer treatment.
Clinical trials are taking place in many parts of the country. See the Treatment Options section that follows for links to current treatment clinical trials. These have been retrieved from NCI's listing of clinical trials.
Follow-up tests may be needed.
Some of the tests that were done to diagnose the cancer or to find out the stage of the cancer may be repeated. Some tests will be repeated in order to see how well the treatment is working. Decisions about whether to continue, change, or stop treatment may be based on the results of these tests. This is sometimes called re-staging.
Some of the tests will continue to be done from time to time after treatment has ended. The results of these tests can show if your condition has changed or if the cancer has recurred (come back). These tests are sometimes called follow-up tests or check-ups.
A link to a list of current clinical trials is included for each treatment section. For some types or stages of cancer, there may not be any trials listed. Check with your doctor for clinical trials that are not listed here but may be right for you.

The PDQ cancer information summaries are reviewed regularly and updated as new information becomes available. This section describes the latest changes made to this summary as of the date above.
Changes were made to this summary to match those made to the health professional version.
About PDQ
Physician Data Query (PDQ) is the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) comprehensive cancer information database. The PDQ database contains summaries of the latest published information on cancer prevention, detection, genetics, treatment, supportive care, and complementary and alternative medicine. Most summaries come in two versions. The health professional versions have detailed information written in technical language. The patient versions are written in easy-to-understand, nontechnical language. Both versions have cancer information that is accurate and up to date and most versions are also available in Spanish.
PDQ is a service of the NCI. The NCI is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). NIH is the federal government's center of biomedical research. The PDQ summaries are based on an independent review of the medical literature. They are not policy statements of the NCI or the NIH.
Purpose of This Summary
This PDQ cancer information summary has current information about the treatment of adult primary liver cancer. It is meant to inform and help patients, families, and caregivers. It does not give formal guidelines or recommendations for making decisions about health care.
Reviewers and Updates
Editorial Boards write the PDQ cancer information summaries and keep them up to date. These Boards are made up of experts in cancer treatment and other specialties related to cancer. The summaries are reviewed regularly and changes are made when there is new information. The date on each summary ("Date Last Modified") is the date of the most recent change.
The information in this patient summary was taken from the health professional version, which is reviewed regularly and updated as needed, by the PDQ Adult Treatment Editorial Board.
Clinical Trial Information
A clinical trial is a study to answer a scientific question, such as whether one treatment is better than another. Trials are based on past studies and what has been learned in the laboratory. Each trial answers certain scientific questions in order to find new and better ways to help cancer patients. During treatment clinical trials, information is collected about the effects of a new treatment and how well it works. If a clinical trial shows that a new treatment is better than one currently being used, the new treatment may become "standard." Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial. Some clinical trials are open only to patients who have not started treatment.
Clinical trials are listed in PDQ and can be found online at NCI's Web site. Many cancer doctors who take part in clinical trials are also listed in PDQ. For more information, call the Cancer Information Service 1-800-4-CANCER (1-800-422-6237).

An interactive murder mystery, authored by Tom and Penny Warner and directed by Charlotte Rademacher, played out while nearly 200 guests enjoyed a catered dinner at Sansar Restaurant, 430 W. Grant Line Road.
The club met its goal by raising $2,500, which will be donated to the local animal shelter.
"I am excited to see this come to life," Penny Warner said. "We are thrilled that the woman's club, in conjunction with the library, put on our play. We do this to raise money for a good cause."
The cast of characters was played by community members and city and county officials — with character names as whimsical as the roles they played.
Tracy Planning Commissioner Pete Mitracos played the aristocratic Hemlock Bones. Patricia Munson played the proper librarian Lotta Books, while Yasmine Allegretti portrayed the valley-talking Nancy Prude. Amber Land-Denoyer played the man-hungry — and often drunk — Agatha Mystery, and San Joaquin County Supervisor Bob Elliott played a skirt-chasing detective named Sam Slayed.
"The Tracy Woman's Club does great things for our community," Elliott said. "I'm just happy to have a chance to be part of this murder mystery and help the animal shelter at the same time."
Alan Gagner took on the role of the pompous Hercules Perot, speaking with a rehearsed French accent. His wife, Hayley Gagner, played the no-nonsense Kutsey Millstone. Sir Arthur Conan Hoyle, an egotistic businessman, was played by Tracy City Treasurer Ray McCray. Rounding out the cast was Don Bisbee, who portrayed a Columbo-type detective named Inspector Dogleash.
Sharon Gibson, the president of the GFWC Tracy Woman's Club, was pleased with the outcome of the evening.
"The Tracy Woman's Club thought this would be a fun event to bring to the community," Gibson said "This is a different type of fundraiser. It's interactive, suspenseful and a true whodunit."
It was Sir Arthur Conan Hoyle who ended up the unfortunate murder victim — drowned to cover up a previous murder. In the end, dinner guest Chance Sutton, 15, pieced together the clues to convict Hemlock Bones of the deadly deed.
The club also raffled off gift baskets and a $1,000 cash prize that went Tracy resident Maureen Tobin Bastedenbeck. The prize was sponsored by local community members.
For information about the GFWC Tracy Woman's Club, call Gibson at 830-1702.

My life is devoted to preaching the Gospel: That God came bodily in the person of Jesus Christ, to reconcile a sinful world to Himself (2 Cor. 5:19; Rom. 3:23). Now, those who confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in their heart that God raised Him from the dead will be saved (Rom. 10:9).
I believe, and confess. You should too. Please feel free to ask me about anything.

Steve Morabito of the BMC Racing Team continued his climb up the general classification at the Amgen Tour of California with a 12th-place finish Tuesday on Stage 3 that moved him from 25th to 19th overall.
Morabito 27 Seconds Off The Lead
The 182-kilometer race shattered on the ascent of Bonny Doon, the last of four climbs. "At the bottom, (Simon) Zahner and (Alexander) Kristoff put me in good position," Morabito said. "Radio Shack did a hard tempo and the bunch exploded." Morabito finished in the lead group, 17 seconds after a three-up sprint was won by new race leader David Zabriskie (Garmin-Transitions). BMC Racing Team U.S. national champion George Hincapie finished 32nd, 1:41 back.

This is interesting because of the soooo many scams that promise you that you can earn money sitting at home. In parenthesis (hidden) it is implied that you dont have to work hard to do it.
This is one that is not a scam but it also highlights that it was all hard work.
It is a millennial project that earns money because millennials+ are watching.

"UX is short for User Experience. Broadly speaking UX design is a process for designing positive interactions between people (users) and products (often software or websites) and/or other people. Taking a user-centric approach and drawing upon the disciplines of visual design, psychology, and human-computer interaction (HCI) research, UX aims to design not just the visuals and interface, but the entire user experience. While UX is most often applied to software and website design, UX designers are also designing physical experiences like in-store shopping experiences, airport lounges, classrooms for schools, museum and art exhibitions, etc."

How To Bake Eggs in the Oven (Eggs en Cocotte)
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
In case you're new here, you may not yet have noticed: I love eggs. For breakfast or dinner; scrambled, hardboiled, fried, or poached. I don't like to play favorites, but baking them in individual ramekins until the whites are barely set and the yolks reach that creamy, pudding-like consistency may, perhaps, be my egg de resistance. It's so easy and has an air of fancy that makes a weekend breakfast feel extra special. Here's how to do it.
Cooking baked eggs (also called eggs en cocotte or shirred eggs) is a pretty darn straightforward process. There aren't many tricks or secrets here, which is handy when you're groggy first thing in the morning.
I like to cook them in a hot water bath. This might seem a bit fussy, but it helps to gently cook the eggs all the way through. You can also make plain baked eggs, or you can layer a spoonful of something tasty in the bottom of the ramekin. Mushrooms sautéed in butter or a nest of caramelized onions are my favorites.
You can make baked eggs just as easily for one or for a dozen. The only limiting factor is the number of small ramekins at your disposal. This is a great breakfast to have in your back pocket around the holidays when family descends and long brunches ensue.
Do you have a favorite way of making baked eggs?
How to Make Baked Eggs en Cocotte
What You Need
Butter or olive oil
Large eggs
Milk or cream (optional)
Optional Extras: minced fresh herbs, grated cheese, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, crumbled bacon, spring onions, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, or any other little bits or spoonfuls that would be tasty with eggs.
Small ramekins (2-3 ounces for baking single eggs, 5-6 ounces for baking two eggs)
Roasting pan, cake pan, or other oven-safe dish
Clean dish towel
1. Prepare the Oven and Hot Water Bath: Pre-heat the oven to 375°F. Line the baking dish with the dish towel; the dishtowel will keep the ramekins from sliding when you carry the baking dish.
2. Butter the Ramekins: Rub the insides of the ramekins with butter or olive oil. If you're adding any extras like grated cheese or veggies, add a spoonful or two to each ramekin.
3. Crack the Eggs into the Ramekins: Crack one egg into each ramekin (or two eggs if using larger ramekins).
4. Sprinkle with Salt and Pepper: Sprinkle each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper. If you'd like a richer baked egg and some extra insurance against the yolk drying out in the oven, add a spoonful of cream to each ramekin.
5. Transfer Ramekins to the Baking Dish: Arrange all the ramekins on the towel in the baking dish. Pour hot water into the baking dish to come partway up the sides of the ramekins. Very hot tap water is fine, or you can heat water on the stove until it's just starting to steam.
6. Bake the Eggs: Transfer the baking dish with the ramekins of eggs to the middle rack of the oven. Bake until the whites are set: 12-15 minutes for runny yolks, 15-18 minutes for soft-cooked yolks, or 20 minutes for hard-cooked yolks. Remove the ramekins with oven mitts and eat immediately with toast for dipping.
Additional Notes:
• Baked Eggs in the Toaster Oven: Nix the water bath and bake ramekins of eggs directly on the rack in the toaster oven. Using the toaster oven tray can make transferring them in and out easier.

If I'm making more than a few, I'll use a muffin pan. I like them slightly more cooked (I like runny yolks but cannot stand runny whites), so I skip the water bath.
They're also fantastic with a crust of freshly grated asiago cheese, and a few arugula leaves thrown in.
I admit that I've made this dish many times without knowing it was an actual recipe. Pretty much the same way I braise veggies all the time... I pop them in a ramekin or tiny loaf dish, toss a knob of butter or a glug of oil on top, add some salt/pepper and other spices, and stick it in the oven to cook. It's a lazy way of cooking when I don't want to hover over the stove.
I'll alway have fond memories of the brunches served at the Alta Mira Hotel (Sausalito CA) many years ago on their rooftop deck. Every time I went there I ordered the shirred eggs with spinach and chicken livers. I've always wanted to make them myself but never have. This article has inspired me to finally step up and finally make them myself.
I always seem to have a problem getting both the yolks & whites to the right level of done-ness. When my yolks are good, the whites are still undercooked. I just saw a posting here that mentioned tenting the ramekins with foil. Perhaps I'll try that next time.
I tried Rachel Khoo's version of oeufs en cocottes. Involves dill and (too much for me) creme fraiche - but gives ideas on what to make with them. The dill especially is great. I found this was really good with some ham and I had it with griddled asparagus - great lunch. Youtube link below for her video recipe & the written version on the BBC website:
p.s. Rareflower - try a bain-marie
i use mark bittman's method - a pat of butter, a dash of cream, and two eggs...my sis and i used to have this for saturday breakfast when we lived together for a summer in london - one of my favourite memories and most special times!
Thanks, David. ;-)
I have constant problems with baked eggs, and have tried just about everything. My yolks ALWAYS cook before my whites do. I've tried a long time at a low temp, a short time at a higher temp, in a water bath, not in a water bath, nothing makes any difference.
Thank you for the great post!!!! I have some neglected ramekins that will now be put to service. Also, my breakfast creativity is severely lacking. I could do toast with peanut butter or Nutella every day for the rest of my life. This idea helps me get out my rut.
Thank you, BRIE, for the "Bittman method."
I have an unfounded prejudice against ramekins (they seem so fussy to me), so I use ovenproof teacups. The bain marie has made a big difference when I try it, and I think I get better results when I err on the side of more fat than less (that could just be the part of me that likes butter).
For those with runny yolks - do you let the eggs sit for a few minutes to finish cooking? I think you do have to remove the eggs before the whites seem completely cooked but if you can wait for 5 mins. more, you might get a better result. Mine have been mixed - I've done them at 400 degrees for 15 mins. with success but I had 1/2 an english muffin and some sauteed spinach/bacon on top, then the egg. No water bath- or the muffins might be soggy.

Project Selvage: Pick Me, Please!
What better place, then, to look for inspiration for my Project Selvage contest entry? And there is no better symbol of everything my daughter's school stands for than colorful rain boots, which can be seen cramming the shelves and cubbies on any given school day. My entry may not scream "baby" (which could be a problem, given that the entries were supposed to be "baby boy"-themed), but I hope it reflects one of the simple joys of being a young child: Pulling on your boots and exploring a pond. Or the world in general.
Going into this, I had several other ideas all inspired by my daughter's school, so on the off-chance I make Spoonflower's 75 finalists, I know I could come up with a whole line centered around this print. In fact, I might just do that anyway, even if I don't make the 75 finalists. At the very least, I could make some awesome potty-privacy curtains for the school. : ) And of course, with a real live contract with Michael Miller on the line, the Project Selvage competition is unbelievably steep. Click here to check out some of the other entries—there are some very talented people over on Spoonflower, you guys. They announce the 75 finalists next Thursday, March 31, and voting will begin at that time.
As an aside, if Project Selvage is Project Runway for fabric designers, then where's our Tim Gunn? As I toiled into the wee hours on my entry, I longed for somebody who would walk past, peek over my shoulder at the computer screen, study it thoughtfully with his chin in his hand, and say something along the lines of, "Those colors are fabulous. But the scale is all wrong." Maybe they'll line up somebody to make home visits to all the finalists? Think about it, Spoonflower! : )

But I don't think you needed the help! It looks awesome. :)

text: Two people arrested in string of break-ins Posted: Saturday, March 9, 2013 12:18 a.m. Tweet E-Mail Print Haley Nicole Dial SALISBURY — A Salisbury man and woman were arrested Thursday in connection with a string of break-ins and thefts in December and January. Haley Nicole Dial, 21, of Statesville Boulevard, was charged with nine counts of felony breaking and entering, seven counts of felony larceny one count of failure to appear or comply and one count of resisting a public officer. Jeremy Eugene Motley, 22, listed at the same address on Statesville Boulevard, was charged with eight counts of felony breaking and entering and seven counts of felony larceny. The Rowan County Sheriff's Office says Motley and Dial broke into several homes, including ones on: • Goodman Lake Road in Salisbury. • Old Union Church Road in Salisbury. They're accused of stealing a satellite receiver, assorted jewelry and a DVD player with a total estimated value of $1,300. • Shuping Mill Road in Rockwell. They are accused of stealing prescription drugs, cash, gift card, assorted Cracker Barrel toys and clothes. The property has a total estimated value of $985. • Starnes Road in Salisbury. They're accused of stealing four packs of chewing tobacco estimated to be worth $20. • Jack Brown Road in Salisbury. They're accused of stealing a jewelry box and several items of jewelry with a total estimated value of $955. The two were taken to Rowan County Detention Center. Dial was given a $25,270 bond, and Motley was given a $25,000 bond. The sheriff's office says others may have been involved and its investigation is still ongoing.

Phasing seeks to reproduce the effect that arises when the speed of one of two tape recorders simultaneously playing back the same signal is altered. When the delay time of about 0.5 ms is slowly modulated, the changing phase relationship (i.e. the shift of one waveform relative to another) between the two signals causes a number of frequency bands alternately to be cut and boosted.
The result of phasing is a 'whooshing' filter-like effect, not unlike that of a number of wah-wah pedals linked together, each affecting a different part of the spectrum. In a graphic display of the spectrum, the effect appears as a shifting comb, each 'prong' corresponding to a resonance peak - hence the technical name 'comb filtering' applied to the use of this range of delay times.

Supply Chain Planning Transformation
How Deloitte assisted a client in improving supply-chain efficiencies, visibility and controlsDOWNLOAD
A rapidly-growing global biopharmaceutical company was seeking more efficient supply-chain planning processes and information flow in order to achieve greater supply chain visibility, better controls and lower costs. Internal efforts to transform the supply chain planning organization had been unsuccessful due to cultural differences among regional stakeholder groups and the lack of planning standards. By involving stakeholders in the process and clearly defining the rationales for change and the future state, Deloitte worked with the client to gain buy-in from stakeholders and to achieve the desired business objectives within seven months.
The biopharmaceutical company had historically been effective in delivering its products to patients around the world. With the launch of new products, however, the number of SKUs continued to multiply, creating the need for greater efficiencies, visibility and controls. The client engaged Deloitte to assess the supply-chain organization and facilitate the transition to a global organizational structure with a refined strategy, clear roles and responsibilities and improved information and product flows, as part of a global Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) program.
Deloitte's approach spanned the following areas and activities:
Global Strategy and Organizational Structure
Master Data Structure
Global Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) Program
The project culminated in a Deloitte-facilitated Leadership Summit to help drive better collaboration throughout the Supply Chain, Commercial, Finance, Quality and Regulatory functions. Today, these transformation efforts drive greater planning efficiencies, improved global inventory visibility, better-informed decisions, lower supply-chain disruption risks and increased flexibility to accommodate organic growth and acquisitions.
