British Antiques Roadshow
Liverpool (#2501)
Michael Aspel introduces the programme from Liverpool in the splendour of St George's Hall, which was built during the city's heyday as a trading port. It was opened in 1854 as a law court and for musical concerts. The Great Hall, with its Minton-tiled floor, has helped to earn it recognition as one of the finest neo-classical buildings in the world. A suitable venue then for the first programme in the silver anniversary series of the Antiques Roadshow.

Daily Shot With Ali Wentworth
What do cookies have to do with true love? Lisa G from the Howard Stern Show explains in her new book, "Sex, Lies, and Cookies," and she stopped by to chat about it with Ali. More importantly, she brought baked goods. "Every chapter has a recipe that reflects the craziness that was going on in my life," Lisa said. There are 25 recipes in the book, including 'Lisa Goes Nuts Brownies' and 'Linzer Broken-Heart Cookies.' "Magicians have smoke and mirrors. I used sex and cookies to masquerade what I was all about," she explained. The cookies Lisa made to win a man's heart were the 'How-To-Get-A-Man Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Squares.' And she swears they worked. CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE.
A look back at the greatest moments from this season of "Daily Shot," and a final scene you won't believe.
In this "lost episode" of "Daily Shot," Ali interviews her husband. Things get uncomfortable. Many months ago George Stephanopoulos came into the "Daily Shot" studio for an interview. So why hasn't it aired? While George is famous for asking hard-hitting questions on "Good Morning America," we discovered he doesn't like being on the other side of the interview table, especially when Ali is the one asking the questions. The "GMA" host did his best to be a good sport, but it's clear he wasn't altogether comfortable with his wife's "less formal" interview style or "loose interpretation of facts." That said, if you want to find out how often Ali embarrasses George or see how George rates himself against fellow handsome Greek John Stamos, check out this ... the penultimate episode of "Daily Shot"!
Top Tupperware salesperson Aunt Barbara helps Ali say goodbye with a tribute to the best past canceled shows.
On the new season of "Inside Amy Schumer" on Comedy Central, viewers can look forward to celebrity guests like Paul Giamatti of "Sideways" and "The Hangover Part II," Zach Braff of "Scrubs," Rachel Dratch of "30 Rock," and Parker Posey, among others. But the show's success doesn't mean it's easier the second time around for host and star Amy Schumer. "They gave us less money, so I'm also playing the extras," Amy jokes. Did she hook up with any of the famous guest stars who appear in Season 2? Nope. "I've never hooked up with anyone who could help my career," she says. "I've been sleeping my way down." Amy was quick to dismiss Ali's jealously over her TV success and upcoming movie, "Train Wreck," directed by Judd Apatow. "I'm lonely, and I don't have any time to enjoy my life," she said. To watch Amy play a hilarious round of "Which Is Worse?" with Ali, check out this episode of "Daily Shot."

While standard protocols have been established for the treatment of virtually all cancers, doctors will often modify them for their individual patients. These modifications are based on many factors including the patient's age, general health, desired results, and the specific characteristics of this cancer.
There is only 1 generally recognized curative treatment for MDS—allogenic stem cell transplant (SCT), or bone marrow transplant (BMT). SCT may be done in otherwise healthy patients.
Chemotherapy is used to treat advanced MDS. There are 3 standard combinations of chemotherapy drugs used. These combinations include cytarabine and idarubicin, cytarabine and topotecan, and cytarabine and fludarabine. This treatment can have serious side effects and may not be an option for all patients, especially those who are elderly.
Certain medications have also helped treat the disease. A drug called a hypomethylating agent has shown positive results in treating MDS. Examples include azacitidine (Vidaza) and decitabine (Dacogen). These drugs work by slowing down cell growth. Some patients have shown improved blood counts, reduced risk of leukemia, and a longer life with these drugs. Immunomodulating drugs are also used to treat MDS. These drugs alter the immune system and include thalidomide and lenalidomide (Revlimid). Lenalidomide is generally preferred over thalidomide because of fewer side effects. Immunosuppressant drugs are used to treat certain types of MDS. Anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and cyclosporine are both immunosuppressants used in the treatment of MDS.
All other interventions are supportive and depend on which family of blood cells is involved. The mainstays of treatment have been blood component transfusions to replace the deficient cell types and antibiotics to treat the infections. Radiation therapy is not used for the treatment of MDS.
Clinical Trials
Treatment protocols have been established and continue to be modified through clinical trials. The research studies are essential to determine whether or not new treatments are both safe and effective. Since highly effective treatments for many cancers remain unknown, numerous clinical trials are always underway around the world. You may wish to ask your doctor if you should consider participating in a clinical trial. You can find out about clinical trials at the government website ClinicalTrials.gov.

Travel report Los Angeles
Many travel reports view the main claim to fame of Los Angeles as the fact that it is the capital city of the movie industry. One of the most well-known places of interest is the word "Hollywood" emblazoned on a hillside. Recent travel reports also recommend a visit to big film studios like Universal. The Kodak Theatre is particularly well-known and rates as a place of special interest around Oscar time, as it is there that the awards are presented. Beach lovers are recommended to visit Venice Beach or Malibu in Los Angeles County, where the Baywatch lifeguard series was also filmed! The attractions of this place of interest are not confined, but there is also the prospect of "bathing beauties"!

Tigers top prospect Nick Castellanos is hitting .444 this spring. (Robin Buckson/Detroit News)
Notes, thoughts, items from Week 4 of Tigers spring camp …
1 . An office-pool guess on when the Tigers call up Nick Castellanos is June, maybe earlier. Castellanos, who turned 21 on March 4, is close to crashing Comerica Park.
"I'd feel comfortable putting him up there against a left-handed pitcher right now," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said Friday when asked about a player Leyland says "is in that terrific prospect category."
Castellanos is 6-foot-4, 220 pounds, and a right-handed hitter who has the pleasing habit of driving pitches to right-center field. In his next at-bat he might wheel on an inside fastball and rip it past the third-base bag for a double, as he did Thursday against the Braves.
This is a gifted hitter dealing with professional baseball's realities. That would explain Leyland's qualifier about batting Castellanos against left-handers if he were to stick him today in a big-league game. Castellanos isn't ready to take on the right-handed arsenal he will see once he makes it to Detroit.
The Tigers and Castellanos are also dealing with a position change from third base to left field. This isn't the easiest transition for a natural left-side infielder. He is an outfield apprentice who in a few weeks probably will head to Triple A Toledo, which will make for a short, one-hour commute when the Tigers place their inevitable phone call.
And if you have May, or even April, in that office pool, you might be a winner.
2. Now you know why the Tigers grabbed Jeff Kobernus in December's Rule 5 draft. If 25-man rosters were submitted today, Kobernus makes the team.
He is batting .294 in 13 games and 34 at-bats. He has base-stealing speed. He handles second base. And although he hadn't played the outfield since his days at Cal-Berkeley, there has been nothing awkward or amiss about his work in left field and even in center.
Kobernus is 24. The Tigers got him only because the Nationals are loaded and had no space for Kobernus on their 40-man roster.
If he goes north, Detroit must either keep him on the 25-man squad for all of 2013, or ship him back to the Nationals for one-half the $50,000 fee Detroit paid in stealing him from the Nationals. Or, the two teams could opt for a trade.
Kobernus had two walks and a single in Saturday's game, a 4-2 loss to the Jays at Dunedin.
"He gives you a good at-bat," Leyland said afterward. "I thought he had about 2-3 terrific at-bats today."
Speed. Versatility. Can handle the bat. Knows the strike zone.
There was a decent chance ahead of spring camp Kobernus would go north. It has gotten better.
3. Leyland and the Tigers will take their roster problems.
They have too many outfielders, with Kobernus, Brennan Boesch, Don Kelly, and Quintin Berry, fighting for no more than two available jobs.
And now they have a potential surplus of infielders. Danny Worth is putting heat on Ramon Santiago, even if Worth has a minor-league option remaining and Santiago has a guaranteed contract ($2.1 million).
Worth is batting .381 in the Grapefruit League wars, with five doubles. He can also play three infield positions. Uh, make that four: Leyland purposely had him work at first base in Thursday's game at Disney as a way of making Worth even more versatile.
The Tigers have always liked Worth's defense and baserunning. They weren't as keen on his bat. But he has gotten stronger and has hunkered down with Lloyd McClendon, the Tigers hitting coach, who has driven through Worth's gourd that it's better to forget fences and concentrate on gaps in left- and right-center fields.
"He's in the mix," Leyland said Saturday. "He is definitely a candidate to make the team, without question. How's it gonna play out? I don't know."
The Tigers might play it safe and send Worth to Toledo. Or, they might trade Santiago, which is feasible, given Santiago's skills (when healthy). What's obvious is that a team bent on pumping more athleticism into its lineup and bench options has a different appreciation for Worth.
4. Bruce Rondon. Couldn't ignore him as a wild week for Rondon and the Tigers front office wraps up.
The Tigers will be 19 days from breaking camp when Rondon makes his next appearance, Monday against the Mets at Joker Marchant Stadium.
Think about it. A team's closer candidate is not so much auditioning as he is aspiring to prove he can finish games. Rondon was so intent on throwing strikes and avoiding mayhem during Friday's game against the Mets that of his 15 pitches 14 were fastballs.
He threw one slider. For a ball.
That mix won't hold up against good big-league batters. They will attack even his 99-100-mph fastball and drill their share.
But for the very reasons the Tigers brought him to camp with such hopes and projections, you can't dismiss Rondon as camp moves through the backstretch.
If his fastball behaves, a slider and change-up he regularly corralled in 2012 could follow suit and deliver at the wire a closer Dave Dombrowski, the Tigers boss, all along believed he had.

European economies have been faltering. We look to the business sector to generate the growth on which economic recovery depends.
Arguably, better corporate governance - where boards and company shareholders are focussed on ensuring that companies create long term value - is the best way to ensure that listed companies and capital markets contribute to a sustainable recovery.
The Action Plan proposes three initiatives in support of this objective: enhancing transparency, engaging shareholders, and supporting companies' growth and competitiveness.
This conference, jointly organised by ecoDa and EuropeanIssuers in partnership with ACCA, will evaluate the likely effectiveness of the Action Plan in contributing to better governance, more successful enterprise and, in turn, a healthier economic recovery in Europe.

Gerbera daisies come in a wide array of colors, shapes and sizes that can add variety to your garden. / Contributed
The Wild Ones organization is going wild for monarchs as they launch the Wild for Monarchs campaign to help preserve this beloved butterfly.
Wild Ones chapters and members are meeting with organizations and community members to promote the use of milkweed in gardening, including providing information on how to collect and clean seeds, plant milkweed and ensure the public is aware of the current plight of these beautiful insects as they embark on the best known insect migration in the world.
Monarchs are already on their return journey north, arriving in our area over the next several weeks.
Monarchs face challenges not only here in their breeding areas, but also in their traditional wintering areas in central Mexico. Habitat loss in their breeding areas and the loss of the milkweed plants they depend on, herbicide use in agricultural areas, as well as logging of their wintering mountain forests have all contributed to a decrease in the Monarch population.
According to Wild Ones, if we all grow milkweed as host plants, as well as additional nectar plants to fuel the journey, we can help conserve the Monarch.
For more information on the Wild for Monarchs campaign, visit Wild Ones online at www.wildones.org/learn/wild-for-monarchs.
Giant hostas are among the most sought-after of all garden plants. Learn all about some of the largest next week as Rob Zimmer introduces you to the Sum and Substance family of giant hostas, including the newest varieties available and where to get them.
The National Garden Bureau has marked this year as the Year of the Gerbera daisy, celebrating the bold, vibrant colors, non-stop blooming habit and beloved status of this popular garden flower.
Gerbera daisies feature large, heavily textured, colorful flowers reaching 4 to 8 inches across in some varieties. Members of the sunflower family, the flowers of Gerbera daisies are colorful, bright and used heavily in the cut flower industry.
Perfect for containers, for either mass plantings or specimens in the front of a garden bed or border, or as a colorful house plant, Gerbera daisies are versatile and fairly easy to grow, making them an annual tradition for many gardeners.
Colors and forms
Gerbera daisies come in a huge array of colors, shapes and sizes, making collecting or growing them a fun and vibrant hobby.
The most popular colors are the rich, brilliant reds, purples, wines and pinks that are commonly seen at garden centers in spring and summer. Gerberas also come in sunshine yellow, pumpkin orange, cinnamon and spice, snow white, creamy ivory, as well as neon shades.
There are many Gerberas available in tropical shades of melon, tangerine, coconut, mango and pomegranate.
In addition to solid colors, there are many varieties of Gerbera daisies that are available in bi-colors, meaning multiple colors on one flower.
Breeding of Gerberas has also resulted in fun floral effects created by varying the color of the center of flowerhead, darker or lighter. The same color ray petals on a plant with two different colored centers creates two completely different and unique plants.
The flowers of these plants come in many fun shapes and forms. Single blooming Gerberas are the popular, main class of flowers that resemble sunflowers with a single layer of overlapping ray petals surrounding the center of the flower.
Semi-doubles have an extra row of smaller petals surrounding the eye of the flower, adding a bit of bulk and texture to the single form.
Double flowers have many full layers of ray petals that completely cover the flowerhead of the plant, creating a wonderfully textured and feathery look.
There are also Gerbera daisies that take on a spidery form, with quilled or pointed petals that thrust outward creating a sea urchin effect.
Growing Gerberas
Many gardeners avoid growing these beautiful plants because of their tendency to be a tad bit picky about their growing environment. However, once established, these plants are non-stop bloomers in the garden or indoors.
Gerberas should be treated as annuals, or plants that are enjoyed for one growing season and then discarded. However, it is possible, and quite fun, to save Gerbera seed for planting the following spring. It is also quite simple to bring the plant indoors and place in a sunny patio window, window sill or sunroom, where it will bloom all winter quite happily.
Shorter plants that are most frequently used as container plants, Gerberas grow to about 12-18 inches tall. Most varieties remain well below that.
The foliage of the Gerbera daisy is rich green and almost lettuce-like, with the thick, furry flower stalks rising from the center of the rosette.
Temperature is key in keeping Gerberas happy, healthy and blooming. Gerberas will bloom and grow best in the moderately cool temperatures of spring and fall. Temperatures above 70 degrees stunt the plant, so do not place against a wall or surface that reflects summer heat. Temperatures below 45 degrees are also not tolerated, and the foliage will begin to blacken.
When planting Gerberas, take special care to ensure the crown is properly placed. The crown, or center of the plant where the foliage meets the soil, should be planted slightly raised. During the season, the crown may sink back beneath the soil. When this happens, simply lift the plant and reposition the crown.
Because Gerbera daisies flower based on the amount of sunlight the plant receives into the center of its rosette of foliage, keep your plants blooming by removing excess leaves from the center throughout the season.
To encourage new blooms and help prevent disease, deadhead the plant frequently. When a flowering stalk has finished blooming, simply snip the stalk at its base and a new one will soon form. This practice can be continued indoors all winter long, creating a full year of bloom.
Gerbera daisies can be choosy when it comes to soil type as well. They will not tolerate heavy moisture, preferring soil that is rather dry. However, do not allow the soil to become dry to the point where the flower begins to wilt. Careful watering is important.
In our area, Gerbera daisies should be planted in full sun.

DMX, the rowdy performer who earned hip-hop celebrity status in the late 1990s, will perform for the first time in York this weekend.
The show is scheduled for 8 p.m. Saturday at the Belmont Banquet and Entertainment Venue, 36 W. 11th Ave.
DMX was originally scheduled to perform in Lancaster. But, his promoter needed to change the location at the last minute, said Aaron Will, co-owner of the Belmont and owner of Smash Radio, which is hosting the concert.
"He called us and we bailed him out," Will said. "We're excited. It's a big deal for us."
According to an article published in the Intelligencer Journal/Lancaster New Era newspaper, a promoter intended to hold the show at the Lancaster County Convention Center on Saturday.
But, according to that article, there's a dispute between Lancaster Mayor Rick Gray and promoter Larry Bently, who told the newspaper Gray intervened to have the convention center cancel the concert because of security concerns. According to the newspaper article, Gray denied doing so.
As for the show in York, Will said he does not have any security concerns. The Belmont will be staffed, as it always is, with a professional security team, he said.
"It's going to be fine," he said. "DMX is not bringing that vibe. He's a¥'90s hip-hop artist. None of his music was ever violent. He'll cry on stage about his grandma. He'll break down on his knees and start praying to God. We're not afraid of that."
Will said he's expecting a racially and generationally mixed crowd at Saturday's show.
The Belmont opened in early September, replacing Club XS, which closed after several years of legal troubles with the Liquor Control Board.
Tickets for the DMX show, which can be purchased at www.loudnationwildlife.com, are $25 in advance and $45 at the door, according to a news release from Smash Radio.
Doors open at 6 p.m. Concertgoers must be 21 or older.
