Since it's your birthday, this is the first time we've spoken in months. I just want to have a conversation with you. I wonder if you want to as well.
I'm pretty sure that a lot of you want to weigh less as a new years resolution, but keep some things in mind:
- Weight is just a number.
- Your health is more important than a number.
- Body fat percentage is more important than weight.
Don't work to make yourself weigh less. Work to make yourself healthier, work to make yourself look sexy as fuck, and work to make yourself feel better.
I don't know about you, but I'd rather weigh 160 with <10% body fat than 140 with >10% body fat.
Eat well, sleep well, be well. Good luck everyone. Let's motivate each other!
until my girlfriend and I can take road trips together.
or travel to other countries together.
or sleep and wake up to see the sun together.
or sleep together at all haha.
or take her out without having a curfew.
or cooking with her.
or cooking for her.
I seriously cannot wait.
After seeing my cousins wedding, I'm going to keep my head up. This girl is the one I plan to keep for a long time. Married? Idk. I want to. I'm not going to let this fall through.
I had a dream that I proposed to my girlfriend and she said yes.
And when I told everyone, no one cared at all and blew me off.
But I was still hella fucking happy because I was marrying my girlfriend.
Holy fuck. Is this what being in love feels like? Haha.
I can't wait to give my girlfriend her birthday gifts. I'm pretty sure she's going to love 'em and I wanna see her face when I deliver them to her haha.
I feel like tumblr has been a huge negative weight on my relationship. Seriously. Most of the problems that have occurred these past 2 years have been because of shit on tumblr. I feel like I should delete my accounts, which sucks because I get a lot of my gaming and art news from it. And I've made good friends with people online! I don't know what the fuck is going on. And it sucks because I'm 6 hours away.
The stupidest and most smug thing I think that someone can say is "… well I think ____ should be everyday!"
What I mean is when people talk about holidays and say that we should celebrate them everyday instead of one day. Well, NO SHIT! I never understand WHY THE HELL people have to say this haha. Yes, we should give thanks every day. Yes, we should appreciate our parents every day. Yes, we should take care of our earth every day. It's the fact that we choose one day to celebrate that specific ideal. Granted, there are actually a few holidays that were created to "generate money" (I think it was Father's Day?), but my point still stands. We celebrate those ideals on a specific day to remind us and be honest with yourself, there are days where you don't keep up those ideals.
It's fucking common sense that we should always celebrate those ideas. Don't be fucking smug and say "we should do it everyday!" when you know that you wouldn't celebrate it everyday anyway.
A couple of days ago, Jenna and I were hanging out in her car because we had time to kill before she went to class. We somehow got onto the topic of kissing and we both have no clue if we're good kissers or not lol. I mean, how would we know if we only made out with one person? Hahaha.
Well, she said something that made me happy for some reason. It happened after we laughed off at the fact that we don't know if we're good kissers or not. She said "I guess we'll never find out."
I hope that we never find out as well.
So I was at Barnes today with a friend of mine, Jenna, and by extension, Marcus, and we(not including Marcus because he didn't sit with us) started talking about fighting in a relationship. Not really anything bad, but my friend brought up the fact that he had an argument with his girlfriend today and that in the end, it's only going to help the relationship grow.
He asks me and Jenna if we fight a lot, and that if not, we should(in a kind of half-serious, half-not serious way). I mean, we really don't fight haha. I can count on my fingers with how many times we've argued, so that must mean something considering we've been going out for almost 6 years.
Anyway, I don't think that fighting is essential in a relationship. It does help, especially if you two manage to actually listen and understand each other instead of blaming one or the other, so you'll find an appreciation for each other instead of a reason to not like the other person.
Our relationship has always been strong, and we've only fought when it was something serious, so of course it's going to make us stronger. But with our arguments only happening <10 times, you have to admit that our relationship is strong because we don't fight a lot.
Idk, I'm only bringing this up because my friend tries to generalize about relationships in general(he's been going out with his girlfriend for almost 5 years), but you seriously cannot generalize the relationship I have with Jenna hahaha. It's not the kind of shit you can learn by watching TV and looking for cliches.
Well, I haven't updated here inna while. It's not like anyone reads this anyway hahaha. I only have 7 followers on here.
Somethings wrong with me. I know there's something wrong with me. Bleh. I can't even explain what it is haha. I need someone to talk to. Maybe I'll hit up Christian later this week. Or not. I have tests to study for. I'll see what happens lol.
OH, and just for completions sake, yes, I did get into a university. I'm going to Sac State in the Fall! Heyooo!

Congress has only one agenda - to stop me, says Modi
The Congress is pursuing a single-point agenda "Stop Modi" but the voting trend so far in the Lok Sabha elections indicates that the UPA is on its way out, BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said here Monday.
Addressing an election rally in Kalyan town in Thane district, Modi said the Congress was not fighting to retain power or to win the election.
"It is only pursuing a single-point agenda 'Stop Modi' at any cost, as they apprehend they will be ruined," the Bharatiya Janata Party leader said at the rally where he shared the dais with ally Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray.
Hitting out at the Congress, Modi said: "They have looted the country and all the wealth is kept in foreign banks."
"It must be brought back. People want it to be brought back. It is only those whose money is stashed abroad that are scared," he said amidst thunderous applause.
He said this was the first general election in India that was not being fought by the political parties or candidates. "It is the people who are fighting this election."
Citing acts of omission by the Congress-led UPA, Modi said they had promised to make India "slum-free" in five years, provide 10 crore jobs and control inflation.
"Has all this happened? The rulers in Delhi must reply, but they are keeping quiet. They have betrayed the people of the country. Instead, they are asking Modi to give replies," the Gujarat chief minister said as the crowds cheered enthusiastically.
He also attacked Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi for his statement about "a prince on a white horse carrying a magic wand, who would solve all of India's problems".
"I was wondering who that prince could be. Then I realised that it must be one person with Rs.1 lakh in his pocket, a Class 10 pass who is now worth Rs.300 crore," Modi said, referring to Rahul Gandhi's brother-in-law Robert Vadra.
Modi said that all these years, the Congress has never faced a real challenge.
"But now, they are worried. A challenge is there, that too, from a chaiwala (tea seller)," he said, referring to his own humble beginnings.
He urged the people not to be misled by the government's tactics and ensure that the Congress-Nationalist Congress Party combine does not get a single seat out of 48 in Maharashtra.
"Vote for the NDA. Give us a strong government. We will give you a strong nation," he told the crowd.

Editor's Note: Maria will be back writing new articles in a couple weeks. In the interim, this weekend's selection was originally published Jan. 7, 2012 — a classic tale of loved ones trying to give to each other, but at cross-purposes. — Amanda
By Maria Padhila
It was an O. Henry holiday. Gift of the Magi, I mean. We all seemed to be offering each other things we hoped would please each other, at a cost of compromising what we most needed.
I had been looking forward to the season for at least a month. On the day after Christmas, Isaac was going to take our daughter to visit her grandparents. He has done this several times since she was born, and I luxuriate in the time alone — once I painted walls and made curtains and rearranged the furniture, once I did a seven-day ritual, often I'll go to as much theater as I can stand and afford. Best of all is the freedom from the primary responsibility of making sure a small and very vulnerable being is always OK.
It's something awesome in the old sense of the word, if you think about it, how frightening it is to care of a child. Mostly we all just do it and don't think about how important it is, how much is riding on every move. It's one of those denials that's necessary for survival, much as denying one's enjoyment of being free from it is. Issac was the one taking the hit for this trip, with hours in a minivan ahead of him. But one can learn to enjoy a week of child care and grandparents when you have a nice ocean view.

Haven't made a dent in the film industry: Ranvir Shorey
He'll be remembered for his accurate comic timing and effortless humour in films like "Bheja Fry" and "Khosla Ka Ghosla", but Ranvir Shorey does not think he has managed to make much of a mark in the Hindi film industry. Anyway, he has no grudges and says that sometimes things don't work out as expected.
"I don't think I have really made a dent in the film industry as I would have liked to. There are many reasons for that. Bollywood is not an even playing field. Under the circumstances, you do the best you can," Ranvir told IANS on the phone from Mumbai.
But the 41-year-old has managed to come to terms with his failures, which he feels are far fewer in number than his successful blockbusters.
"Sometimes the choices you make work well and sometimes they don't. I like to think that I have more successful films than unsuccessful films. Films which have not been received well by critics or the box office are far fewer than the ones which have done well. I hope I can continue making those kinds of wise choices," he said.
It is safe to say that comedy is one of the "wise choices" which Ranvir has made. As long as he can balance these rib tickling roles with other meaningful ones, he is satisfied as an actor.
"I think humour is an inherent part of me. Why I keep getting more comedy roles is because I have been more successful at them. That image of comedy and me continues. I don't have a problem with that as long as I am getting dramatic roles and I am doing well in them," said Ranvir, who has made many laugh with his performances in films like "Singh Is Kinng" and "Chandni Chowk to China".
He is married to Konkona Sen Sharma, but the two barely discuss their movie projects.
"It is not like she reads my scripts and I read hers. We have too many other things to worry about than to start putting double the effort in each job," he said.
The two, along with their son Haroom, who will soon be three, love "hanging out" as a family.
"We love spending time at home with Haroom. The three of us love hanging out. We love going to friends' places for dinners, lunches. I have a great friends circle. That keeps us busy," he said.
The actor will be seen soon in action-adventure show "Khatron Ke Khiladi 5" but said that he was warned by his wife to think about his participation.
"She is a far more cautious person than I am. She asked me to think this through if I really wanted to do this, specially now that we have a baby," he said.
But nevertheless, Ranvir is looking forward to being a part of the show, which will help him overcome many fears, loneliness being on the top of his list.
"I think the biggest fear which I have faced in life is being alone. I don't know if this show will be able to tap that or not. But I feel that there are plenty, which it will tap into," he said.
With an endeavour to always try to "do something different", the actor is also keen to venture into writing or direction.
"I am keen to start something else with acting...maybe writing or directing. I am keen as Haroom will be three in a month and will start school. I feel I should start something which involves me every day, rather than in spurts," Ranvir said.

Corn traders were apparently ambivalent Thursday night about the likely outcome of the weekly Export Sales reports released this morning. The actual data seemingly favored bears to some extent, since the actual sales total, at 189,700 tonnes fell short of industry forecasts in the 200,000-450,000 tonne range. On the other hand, bears could sustain only a portion of the downward pressure that arose in the immediate wake of the news. CBOT futures were mixed around unchanged levels in late-morning trading. We suspect bulls were joined by technicians thinking support around the 40-day moving average (MA) for the nearby March future would hold. That may bode well for the market as the week draws to a close, although we would warn that changing South American weather forecasts could send prices in either direction Sunday night. March corn had edged 3/4 cent lower, to $7.23 1/2 in late-morning activity, while December had fallen 1 cent to $5.84 1/2 per bushel.
The Friday morning Export Sales report proved supportive of soybean futures, since the USDA result, at 978,200 tonnes, topped predictions ranging from 750,000 to 950,000 tonnes. This certainly seems to suggest underlying demand for U.S. producer remains strong despite the looming onset of the South American harvest and the likely bearish effect that could have on spot values around the globe. Some traders may also be buying in response to the fact that the European weather forecasting model has not confirmed the Argentine rainfall implied for next week by the American model. Thus, futures could react rather dramatically to potential changes to the South American forecasts coming out over the weekend. March beans rose 7 cents to $14.42 1/4 per bushel in Friday morning trading, while March soyoil had inched 0.01 cent higher to 52.12 cents/pound and March meal advanced $2.7 to $417.4/ton.
Wheat futures posted a surprisingly weak reaction to the weekly Export Sales data released Friday morning, but gathered bullish momentum as noon approached. Industry forecasts ranged between 350,000 and 550,000 tonnes, so the stated USDA figure, at 647,500 tonnes, seemed quite supportive. Some aggressive traders may have been anticipating a larger result, which might explain the quick post-report drop, but the subsequent rally certainly suggests most were pleased with it. The ongoing lack of rainfall predicted for the Southern Plains may also have boosted the market. Finally, technicians may have been buying after bears proved unable to penetrate surprisingly robust support associated with the 20-day MA for the benchmark March CBOT future. It had surged 11 3/4 cents to $7.80 1/4 just before the lunch hour, while March KCBT wheat jumped 13 cents to $8.34 1/2 and March MGE futures spiked 14 3/4 cents to $8.70 1/4.

Over 40 Hours of CE Credit Available to Dental Teams at Heraeus' Web Site.
On-demand continuing education offered via Webinars, articles, Podcasts, and video clips; effective dental procedures and techniques featured.
Heraeus, the worldwide leader in advancing dental esthetics and dental wellbeing, is transforming the way dental professionals earn CE credit. By leveraging the power of the Internet, Heraeus has become the go-to resource for continuing education across a spectrum of procedures and techniques.

Predictable results can be fleeting for many dentists. When critical steps are either not followed through on or not followed by manufacturers directions, clinical success is not achieved. Each step is predicated on the success from the last. The goal of this course is to create consistent results in a variety of situations. A step by step approach will be reviewed for a Class V composite, placement of an all ceramic unit, a Class II composite, placement of a ceramic onlay, and taking a single implant impression. Predictable dentistry is always the goal and while adhesive dentistry is taught in dental school many well intentioned dentists quickly lose track of the ever changing science behind this extremely important and complex topic.

"Subject is abnormally stubborn. She never gives up. Ever. DO NOT TEST."
— Aperture Personnel File
Modeled after Al�sia Glidewell, voiced by Mary Kae IrvinThe silent main character of both games, Chell is an incredibly determined woman wearing an orange jumpsuit. Her exploits begin when GLaDOS awakens her from stasis to run a series of tests in the Aperture Science Enrichment Center for mysterious reasons.
Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System (GLaDOS)
her own page now, Just for Fun.
The Weighted Companion Cube
Voiced by no one as it, in fact, cannot speak.A large, (apparently) inanimate cube with hearts printed on each face. That's it. GLaDOS tries to get Chell to form an emotional attachment to it, then forces her to incinerate it.
Doug Rattmann, a.k.a. "The Rat Man"
A mysterious person who left clues for Chell to find scrawled along the course of the testing center. His identity is never really touched upon in-game, but the promotional Alternate Reality Game to promote Portal 2, as well as the new comic to bridge the gap between the two games, gives us more about him.
The turrets
provide you with product.
Party Escort Bot
The Party Escort Bot, alternatively known as the Party Associate, is a robot appearing in the retconned PC version of Portal, as of the March 3, 2010 patch. It's only role in the game is to drag Chell back into the facility after she defeats GLaDOS, so that she can have new adventures in the sequel.
Portal 2
Voiced by Stephen MerchantAn artificially intelligent "personality core" reassigned to ensure the wellbeing of the test subjects. Practically a polar opposite to GLaDOS, Wheatley appears friendly and slightly scatterbrained. He helps Chell in her second run through Aperture Laboratories, but accidentally revives GLaDOS.He also has his own page.
Cave Johnson
Voiced by JK SimmonsThe founder of Aperture Science, originally a shower curtain manufacturer before he succumbed to mercury and/or moon rock poisoning. The company's more esoteric inventions came about following Johnson's descent into madness.
Atlas and P-body
Both voiced by Dee Bradley BakerTwo robots — one adapted from a personality sphere (Atlas), the other from a turret (P-body) — created by GLaDOS to run tests in the Enrichment Center. Atlas is assumed to be of masculine personality, and P-body to be feminine. See them in action here.
Defective Turrets
Voiced by Nolan North and Ellen McLainAperture Science's turret assembly lines are less than 100% efficient. These little guys have a few minor faults. Like having been assembled sideways. Or having been loaded with ammo still in the box. Or being completely insane.
A hybrid of two turrets and a Weighted Storage Cube.
Space Sphere
Rick the Adventure Sphere
Fact Sphere
The Announcer
Voiced by Joe MichaelsAn overly cheerful AI Construct that regulates the Aperture Science facility and conducts testing in the abscence of GLaDOS. Unlike GLaDOS or the personality cores, he does not appear to be sentient, meaning his lines are pre-recorded and automatically stitched together, like a computerised phone operator.
The Monster
The chief antagonist of the Peer-Review co-op DLC, who has taken over an older version of GLaDOS's body and is using it wreak havoc.
"Hold on. (Unintelligible Muttering) Alright, my assistant Greg tells me none of that's true. Got excited.Greg is Cave Johnson's put-upon assistant, introduced in The Perpetual Testing Initiative DLC. He never directly appears or speaks, but most of the new test chamber dialogue involves Cave being corrected by Greg about various logical fallacies Cave believes in (such as confusing alternate universes with time travel). According to Cave, Greg was responsible for coming up with the idea for the Perpetual Testing Initiative.
Cave Johnson, on Greg
Alternate Cave Johnsons
Introduced in the Perpetual Testing Initiative, there are alternate universe versions of Cave Johnson who will talk to you, which forces the "real" Cave Johnson to use a Catch Phrase ("Chariots," later "chariots, chariots") to differentiate from the others.
Cut Characters
Mel was originally supposed to be the main character of Portal 2, then the co-op player 2 character alongside Chell. She was discarded when the creators decided robots would suit the chaotic, often death-filled nature of co-op mode better.Betty or the Gyroscopic Liability Absolver and Disk Operating System, was a personality core who would appear at the beginning of each test chamber in the original Portal 2, which took place in the past, to rattle off legal jargon in regards to the dangers of testing. Her role was mostly replaced by that of the Announcer.

Topics: Delivery of Care, Health Costs, Insurance, Health Reform, States
Jul 10, 2009
Analysts say many in America take jobs they otherwise wouldn't simply for the health insurance coverage, Reuters/Boston Globe reports. "It is a situation most Europeans, Canadians and others who enjoy national health services would find bewildering if not appalling and is one factor fueling the drive to reform the hugely expensive U.S. healthcare system. … U.S. company healthcare plans are usually subsidized by the employer. They are much more affordable and comprehensive than private plans that can exceed a $1,000 a month for a family, a huge burden for most households." This makes even low-wage jobs like serving coffee at Starbucks, where a coverage plan can cost as little as $25 a month, more attractive than others who sometimes have full-time jobs in addition. "'I probably work 60 hours a week because I'm a full-time realtor. ... I get up at around 4 a.m. every week day,' said (Lisa) DeWaal, 44, a South African immigrant and widow, who begins her Starbucks shift at 5 o'clock each morning. DeWaal said her plan, which includes her children, cost her $46 a week or close to $180 a month. "'Health insurance is exactly the reason why I have taken the extra job. It's company health insurance, which is a lot better than a private plan. I would put these extra hours into real estate if I had affordable health insurance,' she said. June data from the U.S. Department of Labor showed about 7.1 million Americans were 'multiple job holders,' well down from 7.7 million in June 2008 as the job market shrank with the economy" (Stoddard, 7/9). Small business owners, too, are feeling the sting of health care costs, The Peoria (Ill.) Journal Star reports: "Small business owners… are trapped in a triple-layered maze when it comes to affordable, accessible, quality health care. Increasingly, they can't afford health insurance for themselves or their employees, what they can afford often leaves them unhappy, underinsured, and… in unexpected debt. The sick business of health care is also prompting them to add their voices to the debate over health-care reform, both individually and collectively as members of state and national organizations." "Tammy Finch (owner of a small computer repair business) had been told, and had the paperwork to prove it, that they'd never pay more than $4,000 a year in out-of-pocket expenses. The couple lost the battle. They ended up with a $5,000 hospital bill and a hospital unwilling to make payment arrangements they could afford. … She recently spent a lot of time searching for a new group plan, at a cost of $700 a month, that allows the couple to extend affordable health benefits to their young employees. If either employee had opted not to participate in the plan, which is not unusual for young people, the Finches would not be able to afford it" (Adams, 7/10).
Mandating employer coverage and levying only a small fee on employers who don't offer it in Massachusetts hasn't led to a dumping of employees from plans, The Boston Globe reports: "Three years after the state passed its requirements, Massachusetts businesses have not canceled insurance plans at all. In fact,150,000 more residents are privately insured through their employers. 'Certainly this suggests that you don't need a strong employer mandate to fight erosion'' of employer-sponsored insurance, said Jonathan Gruber, an MIT economist who is advising both Congress and the Obama administration on healthcare."
Democrats believe an employer mandate is critical to reform while opponents believe it will be an unbearable economic burden, especially for small businesses (Wangsness, 7/10).

More Fun in AJ
Barbara got out the bags and the picker and strongly encourage everyone to take grapefruit, oranges, and lemons. She been working very hard to get rid of this year's banner crop.
We're still doing a fair amount of dancing, and recently discovered Superstition Skies in AJ. My favorite entertainers there are Brant and Kerry, who perform every Wednesday from 5-8.
They are terrific singers, and 2 of the best guitarists I've ever seen. Here's a short clip of the Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun."
It certainly beats Filly's where everyone sits in the hot sun, that is if you can even find a seat.
The only good thing about Filly's is all the cowboys that arrive on horseback.
I saw a few poppies blooming in the area so we went out to an area where I had seen lots of them 3 years ago.
Unfortunately, it is not a good year for wildflowers and I saw not a one, so I dug out a picture from 3 years ago. (Is that cheating?)

Hi Diana
I have been following you for awhile and just wanted to say how much of an inspiration you have been.
My wife and I live on a boat in the summer and rent during the winter. We live in Canada. We still have to work for 5 years or so but we`re getting close to setting ourselves free. We just purchased a 25ft camper and hope to hit the road a little this summer. Thanks for the work you do and `taking the road less traveled`.

Now I really need to find out about Superstition Skies. We went to Filly's but it was so loud and packed that we didn't stay very long.
And no it's not cheating to use pics from prior years. Sometimes nature just doesn't want to cooperate.

The Philadelphia 76ers and Sam Hinkie did some end of the draft trading and things and one of the results of this was the acquisition of Jordan McRae. The 76ers wound up drafting a lot of athletes in the NBA Draft, but McRae was someone that can actually shoot the damn ball. What a surprise.
Who is Jordan McRae?
The funny thing about the Sixers' draft was that it appeared that the Sixers were not going to get a shooter. And yet, here were are with Jordan McRae.
Well, McRae was a senior SG from Tennessee. If you say that previous sentence the right way, I just made you rhyme. Good for you! The Sixers had this to say about him:
In four years, McRae (6-6, 185) averaged 14 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 1 steal in 33 minutes per game while shooting 42 percent from the floor. He led the team in scoring with 19 ppg his senior year and 16 ppg his junior season. He also led the Volunteers in assists with 3 apg as a senior. McRae was named First Team All-SEC as both a senior and junior.
The first thing you get from him is that he can shoot. He's got some range. McRae shot 35 percent from deep during his senior year at Tennessee. And, as the Sixers let you know, he led his team in scoring and assists. He's grabbed a few boards during his time as well as steals and blocks. He's a shooting guard, so that's actually a little impressive. He's also a decent defender, which is nice.
Some would say he's too small in terms of his frame at 6-foot-6, 185 lbs. Dealing with contact may not be ideal. So, for now, you might expect him to do nothing but shoot. His ball handling could use some help. Actually, the ball handling thing also would make him a shooter. Tuck him in the corner and let it fly! However, he'll gain some weight over the course of his NBA tenure.
Considering that the Sixers may not have good team next season, if the Sixers hold onto him, he could see some minutes for the Sixers. Even then, he could end up with the Sevens. I'd personally love to see what he has going on. It's going to be interesting for sure. Jordan McRae was the No. 58 selection, so those guys usually don't turn out to be anything special. Any production from Jordan McRae will be a positive, considering he came over with the No. 58 selection.

Microbiologists share some of the concerns that patients have about the current diagnostic tests for Lyme borreliosis and other tick-borne diseases. The laboratory diagnostic challenges stem from the organism's complex antigenic composition and its variation in expression depending on the environment where the organism is located. Borrelia burgdorferi has both linear and circular plasmids along with chromosomal DNA, and, in contrast to many other bacteria, a large portion of its genes are in plasmid DNA. The plasmid genes encode outer membrane components allowing the pathogen the flexibility of switching on and off antigens depending on the environment. This mechanism allows the pathogen to survive during the inactive tick stage (wintering) and to replicate during blood feeding on a suitable host.
Unlike other spirochetes, B. burgdorferi can be cultured in vitro. However, researchers are just beginning to understand the difference between immune responses to antigens expressed in vivo and antibodies detected using antigens from B. burgdorferi cultured in vitro. The Borrelia pathogen expresses some antigens as it first comes in contact with the host mammal leading to the early antibody response. Then, as more antigens are presented, the mammalian host develops the corresponding immune response in a sequential fashion. The intensity and type of antibodies developed depend on the duration of disease prior to antimicrobial treatment, the host immune system, and, perhaps, pathogenetic properties of the microorganism. Researchers have found that there are antigens expressed in vivo and others expressed in vitro. Therefore, the assays that are used to identify antibodies need to include those antigens expressed in vivo.
Two methods are available for directly detecting the presence of the pathogen in humans: culturing and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Both of these have had mixed results in detecting B. burgdorferi (Table 7-1). Culturing spirochetes from a patient's blood or synovial fluid has been difficult because the concentration of spirochetes is low. The key to this approach would be to optimize the culture methods that could allow scientists to detect these spirochetes efficiently. Microbiologists attain the best results from culture when using skin from a patient's erythema migrans rash.
Modifications to the medium used to culture a patient's blood have had mixed results. The sensitivity of the test depends on the volume of cultured blood and evidence of early disease dissemination, when the organism is most likely to be present in the bloodstream. However, only 40 percent

Chapter 8:
The layover of General Howard's command on the shores of Henry's Lake coincided with a broadening of the army's pursuit of the nontreaty Nez Perces. After Henry's Lake, matters became increasingly complex for both the troops and the tribesmen. As Howard pursued, a military cordon slowly began to encircle the tribesmen on north, south, and east. This envelopment was composed of commands from the departments of Dakota and the Platte, overseen, respectively, by Brigadier Generals Alfred H. Terry and George Crook. On August 13, on Sherman's authority, Lieutenant General Sheridan directed Terry to cooperate with Howard, "even to temporarily placing such troops as you may have to spare under his command." At Camp Brown, Wyoming, Crook was alerted to the approaching Nez Perces and his men prepared for field duty. When Howard expressed concern that the Indians might be intending to join Sitting Bull's Sioux somewhere below the Canadian line, Sheridan responded that "such junction is preposterous." Yet to forestall efforts by the Nez Perces to gain a foothold in the Yellowstone country, Terry directed that troops be sent to watch the area of the Musselshell River and Judith Basin above the Yellowstone. [1]
In fact, such efforts were already underway. At the Tongue River Cantonment (soon to be known as Fort Keogh) on the Yellowstone, Colonel Nelson A. Miles, as early as August 3, had sent First Lieutenant Gustavus C. Doane with Company E, Seventh Cavalry, and about sixty Crow scouts to the Musselshell River to watch for signs of the Nez Perces. According to a directive to Doane, the lieutenant was to "use every effort to either capture or destroy the Nez Perces band of hostile Indians that have recently been engaging the troops in Idaho, and who will doubtless, if defeated, endeavor to retreat and take refuge in the Judith Basin or vicinity." [2] Of major concern at this juncture was maintaining the allegiance of the Crows, and Doane was expected to use whatever diplomacy he could muster to that end. [3] On the twelfth, underscoring Miles's determination to stop the Nez Perces, he sent Colonel Samuel D. Sturgis with six companies of the Seventh Cavalry up the Yellowstone to observe the country about the Judith Basin, some 250 miles northwest of the Tongue River post. [4] Another directive to Doane asserted:
Seven days later, Sturgis deployed his force on the Musselshell, but shortly removed to the mouth of the Stillwater River on the Yellowstone "with a view of taking up a central position where we might guard the various passes by which the Indians might attempt to debouch from the mountains." [6] Sturgis also received notice from Howard stating that, based on information from his scouts, the tribesmen "will probably cross Stinking [Water] River one hundred miles south east of Crow Agency." [7] Much against Sturgis's wishes, Lieutenant Doane, acting on orders received from Colonel Gibbon, moved his scouting force to Fort Ellis and, on August 29, set out for the upper Yellowstone leading into the national park. [8]
All the while that Howard's troops and animals had been resting at Henry's Lake, his Bannock scouts trailed the Nez Perces east through Targhee Pass, across the valley of the South Fork of the Madison, and into the national park. There, along the main Madison River on August 25, they came upon two men, William H. Harmon and Charles Mann, whose party had been captured the previous day by Nez Perce warriors. This information, plus news of the general course of the Nez Perces relayed to Howard on his return from Virginia City, confirmed in his mind that they were headed for the Crow Agency near the Yellowstone River and ultimately for the buffalo grounds above that stream. "I believed that the route of the enemy, conforming to the features of the country, would be through [the] National Park to Musselshell Valley, by way of Clarke's [sic] Fork, or possibly leading further south by way of some point between Crow agency and the Stinkingwater [present north fork of the Shoshone River], crossing to the valley of the Musselshell." [9] It was in looking to the possibility of heading off the tribesmen that Howard had sent Captains Harry C. Cushing and Norwood to Fort Ellis. Those troops had instructions to keep Howard posted and to communicate with Colonel Sturgis's patrolling command. [10]
As Howard pondered the Nez Perces' objective points, unknown to him General Sherman, following up on his previous communication with Howard, and possibly in response to continually mounting criticism of his brigadier, had set in motion plans to gently remove him from command. On August 29, from Helena, Sherman wired Sheridan:
Two days later, Colonel Gilbert departed Fort Ellis with Company L, Second Cavalry, now under command of Second Lieutenant Charles B. Schofield, to find Howard and take over the general's column in accordance with Sherman's wishes. [12]
The missive Gilbert carried to Howard outlined the troop dispositions underway in Sheridan's division and noted that his column, as the "pursuing force," had "not much chance of a fight." In it, Sherman continued:
The effort by Sherman to remove Howard reflected not only the commanding general's deep-seated frustration toward the overall progress of the campaign, but also his extreme anger at the Nez Perces themselves. His harsh views toward the Nez Perces were evident in a telegram to Sheridan sent from Deer Lodge on August 31:
Oblivious to all this, Howard, on Tuesday morning, August 28, pulled out of camp at Henry's Lake. There the Montana volunteers departed, as did most of the wagons hired in Missoula. The command marched through Targhee Pass to the Madison River, on the very course the tribesmen had taken six days before. As the troops coursed up the Madison, they encountered "a most wretched figure, worn and ragged." He was Henry Meyers, another escapee from among the same group of tourists accosted by the Nez Perces four days before at Lower Geyser Basin. Later, yet another man, Albert Oldham, appeared, having been shot in the face by the warriors and in a "famished condition." [15] Howard camped that night on the Madison River, leading into the park.
The national park, informally called "Wonderland" because of its variety of natural features ranging from vast and nearly impenetrable forests intertwined with lakes and streams to unique geologic formations and abundant thermal phenomena, had been established by Congress in 1872 "for the benefit and enjoyment of the people." The park then encompassed nearly 3,313 square miles, principally in northwestern Wyoming Territory (the west and north boundaries were in Idaho and Montana territories, respectively), running approximately sixty-two miles north-to-south by fifty-four miles east-to-west. Besides the Madison and its contributory streams, the Gibbon and the Fireholeencountered by the Nez Perces as well as by Howard's command as they proceeded into the parktwo major rivers draining the area were the Yellowstone, flowing northward through the park to form high-altitude Yellowstone Lake, and the East Fork of the Yellowstone (later named the Lamar River), which converged with the primary stream in the north-central part of the park as it angled northwest and beyond the boundary. Numerous affluents joined these streams everywhere as they coursed across the mountainous park topography. In 1877, there were no major roads and few trails leading through the Yellowstone wilderness, although wagons traveling up the Madison and Firehole rivers could reach the area of the Lower Geyser Basin. Across the Yellowstone River, above its confluence with the East Fork (Lamar), a wooden bridge had been erected by Collins J. ("Yellowstone Jack") Baronett, enabling travel between Mammoth Hot Springs, where a log cabin hotel stood for the benefit of tourists, and the route east to the mining region around Cooke City. [16] All of the activity related to the Nez Perces and Howard's army in that year took place in the northern half of the national park.
Oddly enough, as the course of events unfolded, the pinnacle of army leadership had left the national park just days before the Nez Perces entered it. Commanding General William T. Sherman, on a tour of western posts during the summer of 1877, had left Fort Ellis on August 4 with an entourage of two officers besides himself, his son, a packer-guide, three drivers, and only four soldiers, a total of twelve persons. "I do not suppose I run much risk," he wrote Secretary of War McCrary, "for we are all armed, and the hostile Indians rarely resort to the park, a poor region for game, and to their superstitious minds associated with hell by reason of its geysers and hot springs." [17]
From August 6 to 17, Sherman's group ranged through the north and west parts of the park, visiting Mammoth Hot Springs, Mount Washburn, the Lower Falls of the Yellowstone and the geyser basins, and Old Faithful, impressed by its beauty and geologic features. At Mud Volcano, the general's people peered inside the boiling, churning enigma, deciding it was not of volcanic origin but of "muddy water, and . . . thick mud, puffing up just like a vast pot of 'mush.'" [18] On August 16, they were overtaken by a courier bearing news of Gibbon's battle at the Big Hole, and the next day, en route back to Fort Ellis, Sherman's party received dispatches, telegrams, and newspapers describing the event. Back at the post on August 19, the commanding general wrote McCrary that "we saw no signs of Indians, and felt at no moment more sense of danger than we do here." [19]
Sherman had no knowledge of his proximity to the Nez Perce cavalcade that entered the park only six days after the general's party had vacated it. On Tuesday, August 21, the tribesmen camped at Henry's Lake, their livestock fairly blanketing a three-square-mile tract as it grazed. On the following day, the people filed into Madison Basin along the road from Virginia City to the Lower Geyser Basin, their presence creating a brief scare along the Madison Valley as panicky residents fled toward Virginia City. That night a party from the Nez Perce camp raided a small band of miners twenty miles away along the West Fork of the Madison and got away with most of their horses. [20] The arrival of the Nez Perces in the national park on August 23 opened to them a myriad of possibilities regarding their course throughout it and egress from it. One of the army's principal authorities on the park was Colonel John Gibbon, who had explored the region on a visit in 1872, subsequently lecturing and authoring articles describing its wonders for the public. [21] On Sherman's direction, he offered Howard his views of the route the tribesmen might take:
Gibbon proved correct in predicting at least part of the Nez Perces' route. It is apparent that the people themselves, for a major portion of their trek through the park, remained uncertain of their course. Few Nee-Me-Poo accounts addressed the matter of their route, and whatever clues to the mystery of where they went have been derived from non-Nez Perce sources, principally from the account of Howard's leading scout, Fisher, who with the Bannocks trailed them for much of the way, and that of John Shively, a prospector who was captured and held by the Nez Perces during their passage (and then escaped). It is the latter stage of the people's course through the park that is open to question and has been the focus of considerable debate. [23]

Saturday, March 15
Buffalo at Toronto (7 p.m. EDT). The Sabres and Maple Leafs are both trying to catch Philadelphia for the final playoff spot in the East.
Sunday, March 16
Edmonton at San Jose (8 p.m. EDT). The Sharks try to extend their franchise-record winning streak to 12 games when they host the Oilers.
-Derek Roy, Sabres, had two goals and an assist to lead Buffalo past Carolina 7-1.
-Brooks Laich, Capitals, scored two goals to lead Washington to a 4-1 win over Atlanta.
-Olli Jokinen, Panthers, scored the tiebreaking goal 7:12 into the third period to help Florida edge the New York Rangers 3-2.
San Jose scored four times in the first period and extended its franchise-record winning streak to 11 games with a 4-1 victory over St. Louis on Friday night. It is the longest winning streak in the NHL since New Jersey won its final 11 games of the 2005-06 season. The Sharks were 11 points behind Dallas last month, but have since moved three points ahead of the Stars and four in front of Anaheim, with two games in hand over both teams.
Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby said after practice Friday he will miss another week to recover from a high-ankle sprain. If Crosby remains out of the lineup that long, he will miss three more games: home Sunday against Philadelphia, Tuesday night at the New York Rangers, and home against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday. The Penguins are 12-6-4 without Crosby this season.
Washington's Alexander Ovechkin scored his league-leading 57th goal and added an assist for his 99th point in a 4-1 win over Atlanta on Friday night. He is now three goals shy of Dennis Maruk's team record set in 1981-82.
The Sabres outscored Carolina 15-2 over two meetings in Buffalo this season after a 7-1 rout on Friday night. The Sabres scored four goals on their first seven shots, snapping a four-game skid (0-2-2) and creeping within two points of eighth-place Philadelphia in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
Florida extended its winning streak to a season-high six and handed the New York Rangers their first regulation loss in more than a month with a 3-2 on Friday night. The winning streak is the third-longest in the Panthers' history. Florida won seven straight in the 1995-96 and 2005-06 seasons.
Chicago snapped a four-game losing streak by beating Columbus 6-3 on Friday night.
Carolina forward Ray Whitney will have ankle surgery on Saturday and could miss the rest of the regular season. Second on the team with 59 points (25 goals, 34 assists), Whitney has missed six games with a sore ankle, the result of an infection from earlier this season. The Southeast Division-leading Hurricanes are already missing captain Rod Brind'Amour, out indefinitely following reconstructive knee surgery last month.
``I watch scores. That's all I do. It's a fun time of the year to be scoreboard watching. The biggest thing is when you don't play, you lose.'' - Washington coach Bruce Boudreau on his plans for Saturday with the Capitals on the fringe of the Eastern Conference playoff race. The Caps beat Atlanta 4-1 on Friday to move within three points of eighth-place Philadelphia.
