Bella Dahl
Emily Blunt in MOTHER The Looker Fray and a Bella Dahl Shirt
Emily Blunt was snapped while heading into the salon in a double denim look. She wore a pair of MOTHER The Looker Zip Fray skinny jeans in Kale with a Bella Dahl chambray blouse and black Supra sneakers.
The chambray shirt really makes the green pop. It seems like it's been a while since we've seen a celeb in colored denim. It was such a big trend for a while and now it is refreshing to see since we haven't seen it in a while. You can buy MOTHER and Bella Dahl online from Shopbop.com.
Chrissy Teigen in Bella Dahl and One Teaspoon Shorts
Chrissy Teigen posed for cameras while attending the Super Bowl in Arizona. Chrissy's husband, John Legend, performed at the pre-show.
Chrissy wore double denim for the game with a Bella Dahl shirt tail button down and a pair of One Teaspoon Bandit shorts in Ford. I think this is a really fun look, especially for a more casual event like the Super Bowl. You can buy Bella Dahl and One Teaspoon online from Shopbop.com.
Sofia Vergara in Current/Elliott The Boyfriend Jeans
Sofia Vergara was pictured on the set of Modern Family in Los Angeles, California. It looks like she was done filming and was just about to leave.
Sofia wore a double denim outfit, consisting of a pair of Current/Elliott The Boyfriend Jeans in Loved Destroyed with a Bella Dahl Ombre Tencera Denim Split Back Button Down. She accessorized with some brown heels and a tan bag. I love double denim, so I think Sofia looks fantastic here! Buy Current/Elliott online at Shopbop.com and buy this shirt online at Saks.

LeAnn Rimes in a Bella Dahl Shirt & One Teaspoon Bandit Shorts
LeAnn Rimes was photographed while leaving lunch, wearing a pair of One Teaspoon Bandit Shorts in Worn White and a Bella Dahl chambray tank top.
When it comes to denim trends and brands, LeAnn tends to keep up with them, so I am surprised that this is the first time we've seen her in a pair of One Teaspoon jeans. She has been wearing a lot of distressed styles lately, so I wonder if we'll see her in a pair of their trashed jeans next? Buy Bella Dahl and One Teaspoon online from RevolveClothing.

Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 laser multifunction
This business-class multifunction printer can pump out pages fast, and has very low running costs
- Fast printing speeds, very low cost per page
- High initial price tag
Bottom Line
Fuji Xerox's WorkCentre 4250 business multifunction printer is heavy but surprisingly compact. It is easy to operate thanks to a good touchscreen interface, and, most importantly, it prints very quickly.
Price$ 3,299.00 (AUD)

The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 is a monochrome laser multifunction printer incorporating a 600dpi scanner, a copier and optional fax machine. It is a similar product to the Samsung SCX-5835FN. Its high initial price tag is offset by very cheap consumable costs, and a few nifty features make it useful for a medium or large office.
Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 has a range of multifunction office capabilities on top of its high-speed monochrome laser printing abilities, unlike the cheaper HP LaserJet P4015N and HP LaserJet P3015x which can only print. It has an 80GB hard drive as well as 256MB of internal memory, and an optional fax module lets it take the place of a standalone fax machine. The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 can be shared across an office network through its 10/100Mbps Ethernet port. A front-mounted USB 2.0 port means direct printing and scanning is also possible. We successfully printed PDF, Rich Text and plain text files using the USB port, but could not print a Word file. Administrators can set security options to prevent direct printing without a password.
The flatbed scanner means you can digitise business documents easily, and it is possible to scan to USB or e-mail. The scanner's door does not move off its hinges to allow thick documents to be scanned, but this will only be a problem when copying documents over an inch in thickness. You can use the duplex document feeder to quickly scan multiple-page documents.
We set up the printer with the help of the included manual and connected it to a wired network. The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250's embedded Web server and browser-based management system made it easy for us to check consumable levels and change various printer options. It is easy to set up e-mail notifications, too — useful for alerting IT administrators of low toner levels or maintenance requirements.
The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 is easy to use directly, with a large and bright 7in touchscreen that has a relatively simple interface. We were able to copy, scan and e-mail scanned documents with ease thanks to the clear and intelligible icon-based user guide. For most direct work you will need to use a combination of the touchscreen and physical buttons — thankfully these are clearly labelled and intuitive.
Two-sided printing lets you cut down on paper usage. This is a usefulbecause the standard front-loading document tray can only hold 500 sheets of A4 paper. Large photocopying jobs are made simple with the combined use of the 100-sheet duplex automatic document feeder and the printer's two-sided printing mode. If you plan to do some serious printing you'll need the optional additional 500-sheet tray or 2000-sheet feeder, or the optional finisher to collate and staple documents. Fuji Xerox quotes a maximum duty cycle of 200,000 pages per month.
The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 has been designed with high-speed, high-volume printing in mind. We were able to achieve very close to Fuji Xerox's quoted 43 pages per minute figure during print runs of 100+ pages, with a 50 page document taking 1min 23sec to copy — the initial page takes the longest at 9.8sec, then is followed by pages at 1.3sec each. Photocopying a single-page document took 9.6sec from starting the copy process to outputting a printed sheet. The WorkCentre 4250 can handle large volumes with ease, but paper refills will be a frequent without the optional 2000-sheet high capacity feeder attached.
The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 printer requires a new toner cartridge every 25,000 pages and a drum cartridge every 80,000 pages, with a maintenance kit also required after 200,000 pages. At $231 for a toner cartridge, the short-term running cost of the Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 is less than a cent a page (0.92 cents, to be specific). Once you reach higher printing volumes the cost of the printer rises — after 200,000 pages (requiring eight toner cartridges, two and a half drum cartridges and a maintenance kit) the overall running cost is 1.8 cents per page. This is still on par with or better than competitors.
The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 4250 is a very competent medium- to big-business printer. If you will be conducting large print jobs then pick up the high capacity paper feeder to avoid regular refills. It may be an expensive investment to start with, but its low ongoing running costs mean that over time it will pay for itself.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Yo, just joined and thought I needed to share something.
I beat the story mode a week after the game came out, and have been screwin around ever since. Today I decided to get to 100% for shits and giggles. The first thing I did was fly under the 14 bridges and got that achievement, 40 Gamerpoints and it probably took me 20 minutes. Then I did the stunt jumps, which took me about 5-8 hours. I had a printout from here, checking off all the ones I had done and shit, and the achievement for that was only 30 Gamerpoints.
I guess what I felt I needed to share was...thats !@#$ing retarded. Anybody else feel that's a bit off? Seeing that, I'm scared to see what kind of "reward" you get for beating the game 100%.
Didn't piss me off in the slightest. :rolleyes:
Hmm, yeah it is a bit stupid and it's annoying that you don't get little rewards for every 10 stunt jumps/flying rats you get, like in GTA Vice City every 10 hidden packages you got you get another weapon at your safehouse. The rewards are pretty stupid on this one, get all 200 flying rats and it only adds 2.5% towards your 100% haha.
But I kinda got the impression that Voide was more concerned about the achievement points not ingame rewards. :)
Oh right, I don't like Gamerscore whores haha, when people just buy the games just to get the achievements for Gamerscore points ;p
Disn't really get to me either. I guess I'm used to getting hosed by R* for attempting to get 100%. San Andreas was the only GTA that gave you any kind of decent reward for 100%. Oh yeah, welcome to the forums.:D
As far as being a gamerscore whore, just thought I'd put something into perspective. I bought a 360 back in January and have 3 games. Forza (came with it), Halo 3, and GTA IV. I bought this thing for GTA, and without its release, I'd still be playing GTA: SA on the original Xbox. None of the other games excite me, and I could not care less about gamerpoints.
Ive never really played any of the GTA's for the points or rep. I have gotten 100 percent on III and vice city, but not SA or IV. I dont really intend to either. I just like blowing shit up and causing chaos.
Watch the news, cause if i do anything stupid, ill blame GTA. :laugh: If only i can find a way to massively contribute to "global warming", so i can blame the game for that. Im still waiting for that news headline.

I'm having somewhat of a trouble with my WordPress site.
Basically, none of the pages (besides Homepage) or blog posts work.
Unless I have my permlinks set to default.
And while I find default permlinks the best visually, I can't use them because I'm trying to set up a Buddypress and it doesn't offer default.
Also, when I save and activate Buddypress, not even the Homapeg works.
It just loads for half a minute and then shows "This web page has a redirect loop".
Could someone help me?

Quick, what is the right word for a life threatening but nonlethal wound?
Joe Biden, the Democrat's Dick Cheney, but not as mean nor as smart.
That's almost as dumb as the Biden quote.
Is that supposed to be Biden?
Looks more like Fred Thompson.
Yees, deadly is so much different from mortally wounded. Was or wasn't it a fact that people at the time didn't know wether she would make it, and it was said that she was fighting for her life – i would interpret that as mortally wounded even in these days with medical care.
I used to think Biden was an awkward speaker, until the Ryan debate.
Umm, no. The right answer is "gravely". "Critically" is also good with the "ly" ending. (Critical would need that too.) But deadly? Careful, Benson might be doing a cartoon about you next.
It's a small misspeak and I'm surprised Benson bothered. I'm also surprised that no one — Benson in particular — didn't notice that the VP stumbled on the fact it happened in Tucson. Just before the thing quoted.
But does either matter? It reminds me of when people voted for GWB in 2000 because Al Gore looked a bit stiff when he gave a speech. Look where that got us. When will Americans learn to distinguish what matters. Steve Benson usually does better.
…and I said, "…that no one…didn't notice…" when I meant, "no one noticed". Oh my!
Joe Biden, the Democrat's Dick Cheney, but not as mean nor as smart.
What fault do you have with that? Very accurate.
Slow day, eh? When Bush was in office, you must have been tossin' off the cartoons fifteen or twenty a week!
Dick Cheney was the mastermind behind the military/industrial 911 takeover of the United States. Biden is a buffoon along the lines of Dan Quayle. To equate Cheney with Biden shows a deep misunderstanding of history.
You can bet she didn't have Obuma care. Gub'mint care I bet. good thing NPR kept us posted that she died and a right winger did it

Tori Slatton could have spent Monday and Tuesday at home riding her bike, watching television or playing video games.
Instead she painted houses, worked at a food bank and helped out with a vacation bible school. And she plans to do it again today.
"I have a lot and I like giving back," she said. "It feels good. It's worth giving up sleeping in summer sometimes."
Slatton is one of about 65 middle-schoolers participating in MIA - Mission in Amarillo. The program was started three summers ago by several area Churches of Christ to give younger youth group members a mission trip without actually leaving Amarillo.
"We do a lot of high school mission experiences during the summer, but we wanted something for the middle school," said Greg Dowell, youth minister at Central Church of Christ. "We thought, 'Let's do something local that they can serve our community with. Let's give them a variety of service and ministry experiences to serve God in Amarillo."'
This year that meant middle-schoolers from Central Church of Christ, Comanche Trails Church of Christ, Church of Christ at the Colonies, and Westbury Church of Christ from Houston stayed busy this week. They sorted food at High Plains Food Bank, played games with residents at Park Central Retirement Community, painted Another Chance House and cleaned up at the Downtown Women's Center.
"One of the things we hope happens is that maybe they discover a passion they have for a certain kind of ministry, whether it's the elderly or the poor or hammering a nail," Dowell said. "We hope they fall in love with some kind of ministry and they pursue it after the week's done."
For Slatton, at least, that's a definite possibility.
"I think I'd like to work more at the food bank," she said. "And I might volunteer at a soup kitchen. When you're helping other people, not just yourself, and you do it for God, it gives you a warm, fuzzy feeling. And it gives you something to do."
Slatton's youth minister, Bryan Brush, minister at Church of Christ at the Colonies, thinks her attitude, and those of her fellow workers, proves that the stereotype some people have of middle-schoolers is wrong.
"I feel like a lot of people have negative stereotypes about middle school students," Brush said. "A lot of people just assume because of their age that they're not going to be able to do a lot. These kids have really just blown me away. They're really excited. They just get into it and enjoy doing it and enjoy doing service."

How Dupuytren's Contracture Progresses
When Dupuytren's Progresses: Symptoms During Later Stages
Dupuytren's tends to progress more rapidly in men than in women and in those who have both hands involved. As Dupuytren's progresses, the nodules thicken into cords that feel like strings beneath the skin. The skin begins to shrink in the area that once felt lumpy. What happens is similar to what happens when the body heals open wounds, says Eaton. The wound triggers a scarring and shrinking process, and the body gradually pulls the edges of the skin together so that the wound is closed.
With Dupuytren's contracture, this process is activated inappropriately, says Eaton. "If you biopsy tissue that's active with Dupuytren's, you'll find that the biology is very much like what you'll see with an open cut."
When do symptoms become a problem? People begin to notice changes, says Eaton, if the shrinkage causes contraction that is enough to limit the motion of a finger. Most people notice tightness in their fingers when they can't straighten them all the way. As the condition progresses, it can interfere with the use of the hand.
How Life Is Affected by Dupuytren's Contracture Progression
The greater the degree of contracture, the greater Dupuytren's will affect your daily activities. Those who do activities where the palm needs to be stretched flat may notice the tightness of Dupuytren's progression earlier than others, says Eaton. Musicians who play keyboard or reed instruments need to spread their fingers, so they may notice the changes early on.
"Just imagine your ring finger bending and not being able to straighten," says Eaton. After a point, you will have trouble doing very specific activities, such as getting your hand into your pocket if you're wearing tight jeans or reaching into a narrow space to put a seat belt into the slot.
As the finger bends farther and gets closer to 70-80 degrees, applying shaving cream or scrubbing the scalp with shampoo also becomes tough because flattening the palm isn't possible.
As the bend gets closer to 90 degrees or more, you may have trouble putting on gloves or washing your face.
With fingers pointing down at 135 degrees or more of bend, hygiene can become a problem because the folds of skin become difficult to dry. As a result, they may develop foul-smelling fungal infections similar to athlete's foot.

First, I was so tempted to give a "bad" review because I don't want this secret paradise to be overrun with visitors (I feel blessed that we found it, but would love to keep it our little secret)!! Too bad the place is so unbelievable that I cannot keep my excitement held inside!! Now I will put a very small disclaimer right at the beginning… this place is not for everyone (I just read a review from someone that left the day we arrived and my jaw hung open the entire time because I was shocked at their thoughts on the place and even more by their thoughts on the staff, but hey that is why we have this website to see so many different perspectives and I respect that)!!! Now for the reason your reading, the review…
The Staff
I am starting with this because I feel like the staff really sets this place apart from just an amazing property in Negril, Jamaica! From the time we arrived until the moment we departed, I felt like we were visiting family not at an amazing hotel! The staff size is very limited which we loved because it allowed us to actually get to know and interact with each one of them (they even talked to our son back at home via Facetime which he thought was awesome)! Razor Blade was a definite highlight, he brightened our afternoons with his smile and humor! I will always remember his favorite phrase, "RESPECT, worth more than money in your pocket"!! Camilla in the front office was so friendly and accommodating with our few requests before and after arrival. She coordinated our private 10th Anniversary dinner in the hammock hut and made sure to check with us that everything lived up to our expectations (which they exceeded in every way). I must say that they could charge for internet and even phone calls home, but they offer it free of charge. "The Lifeguard", Rasine, is really like a "jack of all trades" guy around the property. He set up our Anniversary Dinner, he would walk with us to collect our stuff when we went snorkeling so we could be free to come up at a different spot without having to retrace our steps to gather our things, he helped clean up, he entertained us with his skills flipping off the bridge, he helped with our bags, the list goes on and on… he basically did anything to make our stay more comfortable and made sure we didn't have to exude any energy that we did not want to ;) Owen is the daytime bartender and also was really friendly and accommodating, he is just not as talkative a Razor. There is a security guard 24 hrs a day that mans the gate so you feel safe leaving your doors open (we also felt safe walking down the street to explore other places so don't be scared to leave just because there is a locked gate). The housekeeping staff was wonderful and very friendly as well! Taneisha was so sweet!!
The Grounds
I am sure you have seen the pictures already, but this is one of the few places we have been that I actually feel the pictures do not do the beauty of the place justice! I want to clarify that the pool was resurfaced (it was finished on September 28th) and it looks beautiful, but the ocean is a much better "swimming pool" and almost as crystal clear. There are beautiful and colorful flowers throughout the resort that made me smile on my morning walks with Beezy (the puppy of Tensing and Shuga) to my favorite cove for a quiet moment enjoying a cup of coffee. The snorkeling was beautiful and so convenient (just jump off a cliff and swim till you decide to climb out at one of the many sets of steps located throughout the property). Once we had our morning swim in, we would rinse off at the seaside showers and choose a lounger to relax and soak in some sunshine. We loved that we were there during "the slow season" because we could go hours without seeing anyone, but we also like to interact with the other guests as well so we would relax alone in the morning and then seek out others to hang out with about midday. The bridge is a must jump spot (if you don't do it, I think you will regret it)! The water is so clear, you can see any sea-life that might be below you. The only things that I saw of concern in the water was the occasional jelly fish and sea urchins along the rocks that you should beware of near the steps (my husband got one in his foot, but it just took a minor "surgery" with tweezers to make him good as new). The gift shop had everything you could want to commemorate such a great trip and Carlene was very helpful!
The Room
We stayed in the Pine Pillar Suite and I immediately fell in love! Although it is a thatched hut with no A/C, it has a rustic yet sophisticated feel. The room was much larger than I imagined and had plenty of room for storage. The bed was so comfortable and the bug net kept us safe from mosquitos at night (I am highly allergic and only got a few bites throughout the stay). The bathroom was definitely nicer than I imagined and large. The shower was located outside under the cottage and the view was breathtaking. The balcony extends across the entire length of the cottage and is large enough for two lounge chairs, a table with chairs, and a large comfy chair. There were two private verandahs by the sea that we loved to relax at in the morning. I will admit that my husband was hot the first night, but after that he adjusted and didn't complain the rest of the trip (there are two hanging fans and a floor fan to help circulate the air and the breeze off the ocean is so calming). I highly recommend this room for a special occasion or a first time trip, but we will probably explore the other cottages next time. We went through the Long House because we met some cool people from Atlanta that were staying there and if you are traveling with a group, it is definitely the way to go (A/C in the bedrooms and an open air sitting room/kitchen). We also liked the Cove Cottage layout and view, but again no A/C.
The Food
I will review The Lodge separately, but wanted to briefly mention it here too. The food was AMAZING!! We had a lot of different offering for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and we did not find one thing we didn't enjoy! From the breakfast smoothie (I think I miss this the most of all the foods) to the lobster, it was all fresh and delicious! Also, the continental breakfast had plenty of offerings, we just liked to try different menu items too. The coffee was so yummy we both had several cups a day (and my husband is not a big coffee drinker)!
If you are looking to escape reality for a few days and travel to paradise, this is THE PLACE!! We can't wait to go back and can see exactly why people return year after year (we hope to be one of them)!

Three youths accused of throwing rocks at vehicles on Interstate 680 will remain in detention pending another hearing after they appeared in juvenile court Friday.
They are charged with multiple counts of vehicular vandalism, according to The Vindicator's broadcast partner, WFMJ-Channel 21.
After spending a night in juvenile detention at the Martin P. Joyce Juvenile Justice Center, the defendants appeared in court in handcuffs and shackles. They are 11, 14 and 15 years of age. The two youngest are brother and sister.
The court entered innocent pleas on their behalf, and at the next hearing, they will be represented by court-appointed defense counsel.
A number of large rocks still litter the shoulder of I-680 under the Wellington Street overpass on the city's West Side where the rocks were thrown.
More than a half-dozen
drivers reported their
vehicles were hit by rocks Thursday evening.
For the full story, read Friday's Vindicator or Vindy.com
"Three youths accused of throwing rocks at vehicles on Interstate 680 will remain in detention pending another hearing after they appeared in juvenile court Friday."
There was no penalty for doing this on the sreets in the hood and they didn't know that it was illegal on 680 . Now these kids will end up hating authority over this traumatic experience .
MAKE THE PARENTS PAY!! They should have taught their kids better. And as for the kids, they must be taught a lesson or they will be in court on some other charges sooner than you think.
mrblue :
This isn't going to happen ! If you didn't have full coverage insurance you get nothing . These kids will move on up to bigger and better clashes with society .
They should be charged with attempted manslaughter IMHO.

The Subaru WRX STI is one of those cars whose value to the automaker is greater than the sum of its sales.
The STI is Subaru's premier performance car, a 305-horsepower, compact sport sedan with road-racer handling. As such, it serves as a "halo car."
A halo car is typically not a big seller (the STI accounts for only about 4,000 sales a year). Rather, it is a sexy showroom magnet that pulls customers in the door. Like the rest of the industry, Subaru uses the STI to attract largely youthful buyers, even though those customers often can't afford its $34,495 starting sticker.

Betaseron Side Effects Center
Medical Editor: John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Betaseron (interferon beta-1b) is an immunological agent made from human proteins used to treat relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). Betaseron will not cure MS, it will only decrease the frequency of relapse symptoms. Common side effects of Betaseron include injection site reactions (pain/swelling/redness), abdominal or stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea, upset stomach, weakness, muscle pain, nausea, swelling in your hands or feet, skin rash, or irregular menstrual periods. Most patients have flu-like symptoms such as headache, tiredness, fever, chills, and muscle aches when they start this medication. Symptoms usually last about 1 day after the injection with Betaseron and improve or go away after a few months of continued use.
The recommended dose of Betaseron is 0.25 mg injected subcutaneously every other day. Starting dose is 0.0625 mg (0.25 mL) subcutaneously every other day, and increased over a six-week period to 0.25 mg (1.0 mL) every other day. Other drugs may affect Betaseron. Tell your doctor all prescription and over-the-counter medications and supplements you use. Betaseron is not recommended for use during pregnancy. It is unknown if this drug passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Our Betaseron (interferon beta-1b) Side Effects Drug Center provides a comprehensive view of available drug information on the potential side effects when taking this medication.

What is Patient Information Overview?
A concise overview of the drug for the patient or caregiver from First DataBank.
Betaseron Overview - Patient Information: Side Effects
Most patients have flu-like symptoms such as headache, tiredness, fever, chills, and muscle aches when they first start this medication. These symptoms usually last about 1 day after the injection and improve or go away after a few months of continued use. You can reduce these side effects by injecting this medicine at bedtime and using fever reducers/pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen before each dose. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: mental/mood changes (e.g., new or worsening depression, thoughts of suicide, psychosis), feeling too hot or cold (more than others around you), unusual tiredness, gradual change in weight (without a change in diet or exercise), easy bleeding/bruising, persistent nausea/vomiting, pus or change in skin color at the injection site, stomach/abdominal pain, dark urine, yellowing eyes/skin, swelling ankles/feet.
This medication may lower your ability to fight infections. This may make you more likely to get a serious infection or make any infection you have worse. Tell your doctor right away if you have any signs of infection (such as fever, chills, persistent sore throat, cough).
Get medical help right away if any of these rare but very serious side effects occur: chest pain, seizures.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions and over varying lengths of time, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of BETASERON cannot be directly compared to rates in clinical trials of other drugs, and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Among 1407 patients with MS treated with BETASERON 0.25 mg every other day (including 1261 patients treated for greater than one year), the most commonly reported adverse reactions (at least 5% more frequent on BETASERON than on placebo) were injection site reaction, lymphopenia, flu-like symptoms, myalgia leukopenia, neutropenia, increased liver enzymes, headache, hypertonia, pain, rash, insomnia, abdominal pain, and asthenia. The most frequently reported adverse reactions resulting in clinical intervention (for example, discontinuation of BETASERON, adjustment in dosage, or the need for concomitant medication to treat an adverse reaction symptom) were depression, flu-like symptom complex, injection site reactions, leukopenia, increased liver enzymes, asthenia, hypertonia, and myasthenia.
Table 2 enumerates adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities that occurred among patients treated with 0.25 mg of BETASERON every other day by subcutaneous injection in the pooled placebo-controlled trials (Study 1-4) at an incidence that was at least 2% more than that observed in the placebo-treated patients [see Clinical Studies].
Table 2: Adverse Reactions and Laboratory
Abnormalities in Patients with MS in Pooled Studies 1, 2, 3, and 4
|Adverse Reaction

|1 "Injection site reaction"
comprises all adverse reactions occurring at the injection site (except
injection site necrosis), that is, the following terms: injection site
reaction, injection site hemorrhage, injection site hypersensitivity, injection
site inflammation, injection site mass, injection site pain, injection site
edema and injection site atrophy.
2 "Flu-like symptom (complex)" denotes flu syndrome and/or a combination of at least two adverse reactions from fever, chills, myalgia, malaise, sweating.
In addition to the Adverse Reactions listed in Table 2, the following adverse reactions occurred more frequently on BETASERON than on placebo, but with a difference smaller than 2%: alopecia, anxiety, arthralgia, constipation, diarrhea, dizziness, dyspepsia, dysmenorrhea, leg cramps, menorrhagia, myasthenia, nausea, nervousness, palpitations, peripheral vascular disorder, prostatic disorder, tachycardia, urinary frequency, vasodilatation, and weight increase.
Laboratory Abnormalities
In the four clinical trials (Studies 1, 2, 3, and 4), leukopenia was reported in 18% and 6% of patients in BETASERON and placebo-treated groups, respectively. No patients were withdrawn or dose reduced for neutropenia in Study 1. Three percent (3%) of patients in Studies 2 and 3 experienced leukopenia and were dose-reduced. Other abnormalities included increase of SGPT to greater than five times baseline value (12%), and increase of SGOT to greater than five times baseline value (4%). In Study 1, two patients were dose reduced for increased hepatic enzymes; one continued on treatment and one was ultimately withdrawn. In Studies 2 and 3, 1.5% of BETASERON patients were dose-reduced or interrupted treatment for increased hepatic enzymes. In Study 4, 1.7% of patients were withdrawn from treatment due to increased hepatic enzymes, two of them after a dose reduction. In Studies 1-4, nine (0.6%) patients were withdrawn from treatment with BETASERON for any laboratory abnormality, including four (0.3%) patients following dose reduction.
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is a potential for immunogenicity. Serum samples were monitored for the development of antibodies to BETASERON during Study 1. In patients receiving 0.25 mg every other day 56/124 (45%) were found to have serum neutralizing activity at one or more of the time points tested. In Study 4, neutralizing activity was measured every 6 months and at end of study. At individual visits after start of therapy, activity was observed in 17% up to 25% of the BETASERON-treated patients. Such neutralizing activity was measured at least once in 75 (30%) out of 251 BETASERON patients who provided samples during treatment phase; of these, 17 (23%) converted to negative status later in the study. Based on all the available evidence, the relationship between antibody formation and clinical safety or efficacy is not known.
These data reflect the percentage of patients whose test results were considered positive for antibodies to BETASERON using a biological neutralization assay that measures the ability of immune sera to inhibit the production of the interferoninducible protein, MxA. Neutralization assays are highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of neutralizing activity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies to BETASERON with the incidence of antibodies to other products may be misleading.
Anaphylactic reactions have been reported with the use of BETASERON [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Postmarketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of BETASERON. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Blood and lymphatic system disorders: Anemia, Thrombocytopenia
Endocrine disorders: Hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, Thyroid dysfunction
Metabolism and nutrition disorders: Triglyceride increased, Anorexia, Weight decrease, Weight increase
Psychiatric disorders: Anxiety, Confusion, Emotional lability
Nervous system disorders: Convulsion, Dizziness, Psychotic symptoms
Cardiac disorders: Cardiomyopathy, Palpitations, Tachycardia
Vascular disorders: Vasodilatation
Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: Bronchospasm
Gastrointestinal disorders: Diarrhea, Nausea, Pancreatitis, Vomiting
Hepatobiliary disorders: Hepatitis, Gamma GT increased
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: Alopecia, Pruritus, Skin discoloration, Urticaria
Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders: Arthralgia
Reproductive system and breast disorder: Menorrhagia
General disorders and administration site conditions: Fatal capillary leak syndrome*
*The administration of cytokines to patients with a pre-existing monoclonal gammopathy has been associated with the development of this syndrome.

text: BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- The European debt crisis is taking center stage in the U.S. Jean- Claude Trichet Now, more than three years after the subprime debacle, other financial excesses are again threatening the global economy. Just last week, Greece received its second major bailout package, though it will be expected to implement further austerity measures to receive funds. Despite accounting for just 2% of the eurozone economy, Greece could cause a contagion, meaning that if the country defaults on its debt, investors will lose confidence in the euro and other euro-zone debt, escalating bond yields, making borrowing excessively costly and, perhaps, leading to outright default. From 1993 to the present, Greece's debt load has exceeded its annual GDP, a troubling statistic. In efforts to improve employment and bolster growth, Greece vastly expanded its public sector, elevating prosperity at the cost of long-run fiscal health. Similarly, Portugal, Spain and Italy engaged in reckless borrowing. Last week, Portugal's debt was downgraded to junk status by Moody's ( MCO). Hedge funds, many of which were already profiting from European woes, smell blood in the water. One way to profit from default fears is by purchasing CDSs, or credit default swaps, insurance contracts on bonds. As fear swells, CDSs rally. Other investment strategies include shorting the stocks of companies in the eurozone with significant exposure to the peripheral countries. For example, shorting the banks may still be a relevant technique, though dogs like National Bank of Greece ( NBG) and Allied Irish Banks ( AIB) have already plummeted to all-time lows on investor fears. They may have farther to fall as the crisis intensifies. It now seems almost inevitable that a large-scale financial restructuring will occur. Three years into the so-called recovery, sovereign debt issues continue to worsen as a tepid expansion has offered no tax revenue boon. Other candidates for shorting include ETFs, or exchange traded funds, that offer direct sovereign exposure. For example, iShares MSCI Spain Index Fund ( EWP) and iShares MSCI Italy Fund ( EWI), deserve consideration. Last month, George Soros, considered among the savviest macro investors, warned that "we are on the verge of an economic collapse which starts, let's say, in Greece, but it could easily spread. The financial system remains extremely vulnerable." Soros made more than a billion in 1992 by shorting the British pound sterling and has written several books, prognosticating financial crises.

Kinda Sorta Tex Mex Burger
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
I threw these together tonight when getting in the mood for ZWT5. When I think 'Texas' I often think of good BBQ and beef. When I think of Mexico I tend to think of a bit of heat and fresh tomatoes and avocado. So, I threw them together to make one yummy burger. So, it may not be real tex mex but it comes out of the ideas of Texas and Mexico that float around in my,admittedly odd, brain.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 egg
- 1⁄4 cup breadcrumbs (I used panko)
- 4 slices tomatoes
- 4 slices red onions
- 4 hamburger buns, toasted
For avocado mixture
- 1 small avocado
- 1⁄4 teaspoon lime juice
- 1 pinch sea salt
- Put beef, onion flakes, cayenne pepper barbecue sauce, sea salt, egg and bread crumbs into bowl.
- Mix together with your hands until everything is well combined.
- Divide into four and shape into burgers.
- Cook in a frying pan with a little bit of oil for 5 minutes on each side or put onto a Foreman like grill for about 10 minutes or until cooked through.
- While the burgers are cooking, pit your avocado and scrape the insides into a bowl.
- Add the lime juice and pinch of sea salt and mash with a fork until nearly smooth.
- To assemble the burgers, spread a good dollop of the avocado mixture onto the bottom part of each bun.
- Place the burger on top of that and then give each burger a slice of tomato and red onion.
- Put the other half of the bun on top and serve.
Most Helpful
I can hardly wait for lunch when I can have leftovers from last nights BBQ - these were a huge hit! I loved the avocado mixture and made the burgers just as directed with tomatoes and red onions. I'll be making these burgers again! Made for ZWT5.
Love this burger, which we made for ZWT. I added about 1 t of lime juice to the avocado along with some garlic salt and a couple of splashes of Tabasco to make it more of a guacamole otherwise as listed.
As made these were awesome. I did make a couple of changes. For the meat did not do the egg/breadcrumb thing but did everything else. I also added the tomatoes and onion to the avacado along with cilantro. And as I do on all burgers, added a slice of cheese. Loved the combination of barbeque sauce and guacamole. For ZWT.

WACO - Law enforcement officials searched a gravel pit near the Brazos River on Tuesday for the body of missing Baylor basketball player Patrick Dennehy.
Waco police Sgt. Ryan Holt said no body had been found by Tuesday afternoon. Asked whether he thought a discovery would be made soon, he said, "For the family of Mr. Dennehy, we certainly hope so."
Former teammate and roommate Carlton Dotson, 21, was charged Monday night with murder after he confessed to FBI agents that he shot Dennehy in the head "because Patrick had tried to shoot him," an arrest warrant released Tuesday said.
"Mr. Dotson provided specific information about the murder of Mr. Dennehy that would lead us to believe he committed the murder," Holt said.
Holt said it is early in the investigation, and he wouldn't rule out any motive.
Dennehy, 21, was last seen on campus June 12; his family reported him missing June 19. The next day, Waco police said Delaware police told them a police informant said Dotson told someone he shot Dennehy in the head after the two argued.
Dotson was seen "during the late evening" June 12 in Sulphur Springs, the hometown of his estranged wife, driving Dennehy's Chevrolet Tahoe, and told someone he planned to go to Maryland, the warrant said.
Dennehy's Tahoe was found abandoned, without license plates, June 25 in Virginia Beach, Va.
About a month later, Waco investigators learned that Dotson contacted authorities in Maryland and requested to speak with FBI agents about Dennehy's disappearance. He "made this telephone call voluntarily of his own free will," the warrant said.
"Investigators learned from FBI agents in Maryland that Carlton Dotson confessed to shooting Patrick Dennehy," the warrant said.
Dotson attorney Grady Irvin said Tuesday afternoon he had not spoken to Dotson since his arrest.
"I don't think he's in a mental state right now to be speaking to anyone in any lucid fashion," Irvin said.
Irvin said he would examine the arrest warrant and see whether any comments that Dotson made in recent weeks were included.
"If it is, there is a significant likelihood that his competency to make those statements are in question," Irvin said.
The search for Dennehy's body began Monday night after Dotson spent about two hours with authorities in Maryland, where Dotson lives in the small coastal town of Hurlock.
Waco investigators, some on horseback, searched Tuesday the river banks and a gravel pit surrounded by pastures, tall grass and sunflowers a few miles from the Baptist-affiliated university where Dotson and Dennehy were on the basketball team last season.
Baylor basketball coach Dave Bliss gave a brief statement Tuesday, saying the team and university were "shaken by the events that have occurred."
"We keep hoping this isn't true. It seems unreal, especially that a 21-year-old who always wore that big smile and couldn't wait for the season to begin might be gone," Bliss said. "I wish we knew more. We don't know why, and we don't know what happened."
Dennehy's stepfather and mother, Brian and Valorie Brabazon, have said that Dennehy had been threatened shortly before his disappearance and reported the threats to his coaches.
Bliss said Tuesday that "Patrick never reported any threats to the coaching staff."
Melissa Kethley, Dotson's estranged wife, said Tuesday she does not think Dotson killed Dennehy.

United Nations, Feb 20 (EFE).- Bolivian President Evo Morales said here Wednesday that Spanish energy group Repsol and other firms that invest in the Andean country need not fear nationalization because that step is only taken against companies that come to "plunder."
"For those companies that invest, I can tell them that their investment is guaranteed" and that they have the right to recoup their investment and make a profit, Morales said in a press conference at the United Nations' headquarters.
Morales stressed that Bolivian authorities work "jointly" with "companies that are partners" and invest, citing Repsol as a prime example.
His comments came two days after La Paz nationalized the Spanish-owned firm that runs Bolivia's three largest airports, accusing the company of not investing enough in improvements.
Servicios de Aeropuertos Bolivianos S.A., or Sabsa, is the sixth Spanish-owned Bolivian enterprise to be nationalized in less than a year.
Sabsa obtained in 1997 a 25-year-concession to operate the airports serving La Paz, Cochabamba and Santa Cruz.
The company changed hands twice since then, passing in 1999 from U.S.-based Airport Group International to Britain's TBI, which five years later sold the firm to two Spanish concerns: state-owned aviation administrator AENA and infrastructure giant Abertis.
From 1997 to 2005, there was "no investment plan, just plundering," Morales said Wednesday, referring to Sabsa's stewardship of the airports.
While Sabsa later pledged to invest $26 million between 2006 and 2025, "they had only invested $5 million" by 2011, the Bolivian president said.
Morales said he was on the verge of nationalizing Sabsa three years ago, but then-Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero convinced him to wait and hold talks and pledged he would ensure that the company invested in its operations.
"Unfortunately, in that dialogue with the company all we did was waste three years," the president added.

Vagrant Story out on PSP and PS3 this week [Update]
Did you know Vagrant Story was releasing for PSP and PS3 in Europe this week? We didn't. And yet it's true. It's a crazy world we live in.
The dungeon-crawling RPG was first released in 2000, and is a bit of a classic. You'd do well to give it a waz.
Thanks, Spiral.
Update: Bad news. We've just been told by Square that the date – taken from the company's newsletter – is actually wrong. The game's coming to PSN soon, but not this week. We'll let you know as soon as the correct date's announced.

SOURCE: Roth, John K. "From Night to Twilight: A Philosopher's Reading of Elie Wiesel." Religion and Literature 24, no. 1 (spring 1992): 59-73.
In the following essay, Roth delineates the major thematic concerns of Wiesel's oeuvre.
Everything to do with Auschwitz must, in the end, lead into darkness.
—Elie Wiesel
Plato and Aristotle, Hume and Kant, Hegel and Kierkegaard, James, Camus, and Wittgenstein—these great masters of philosophy move me. Philosophically, however, no writer disturbs and provokes me more than one who claims he "never intended to be a philosopher."1 Whenever I read a book by Elie Wiesel, survivor of the Holocaust, the Nazi attempt to annihilate the Jews, I feel compelled to respond in writing of my own. No other author affects me quite that way. For more than twenty years I have been doing a philosopher's reading of Elie...

The UNHEALTHIEST Restaurant Meals in the Country
Posted July 31st, 2014 @ 5:06am by Chilli Amar
12 hours of brisk walking is what it takes to burn off this 3,540 calorie meal from Red Robin: http://t.co/zX484lW2hU pic.twitter.com/6wR56qHeum
— USA TODAY (@USATODAY) July 30, 2014
The Center for Science in the Public Interest conducted a study and found that a "Monster" double burger, served with "bottomless" fries and a "Monster" milk shake at Red Robin is the UNHEALTHIEST meal...at 3,540 calories.
The Cheesecake Factory has the most unhealthiest meals — three — for its Farfalle with Chicken and Roasted Garlic (2,410 calories), Bruléed French Toast (2,780 calories) and Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake Cheesecake (1,500 calories).
To burn off those calories, the center says, you would have to do:
- 12 hours of brisk walking for the Monster Burger meal
- 7 hours of lap-swimming for the French toast.
- 5 hours of jogging for the chicken pasta dish
- 4.5 hours of aerobics for the cheesecake.

As such, they often don't display the gritty conflict between sin and grace that Christianity is all about. Christian movies aren't the only films with these kinds of faults, as Jackson Cuidon shows in his review of 42, about Jackie Robinson and the integration of baseball.

Dr. John Duffy is a nationally known parenting expert. On early August, 2013 he appeared on a morning talk show where he was featured in a special segment. The focus of the segment was kids talking back. This is one of the universal issues most parents face. Dr. Duffy is known for helping parents with both practical and approachable advice.
The conversation included teens telling Dr. Duffy why they talk back. The teens were asked what it would take to prompt them to stop this defiant behavior. The results of the research done live were amazing and successful at the same time.
Dr. Duffy is a certified life coach as well as a parenting expert. He is a highly sought after clinical psychologist and a proud parent. He has spent fifteen years working with tweens, teens and their families. Critical intervention has been provided by him and he has provided the support needed to help hundreds of families. He is a regular on the Steve Harvey show and the Morning Blend on NBC. He is proud to be the regular relationship and parenting expert on these shows.
In his book, The Available Parent, he gives parents new strategies for helping their adolescents become resilient, competent, connect adults. Dr. Duffy believes it is not teenagers that are the only ones who are not available. He believes that far too often it is the parents who strike first with fear, anger, judgment and ego. He believes that when this occurs, the teens are simply reacting in kind.
Teen-tested strategies can be found in The Available Parent. The strategies are designed to change this dynamic. Available parents are open to non-judgmental, loving discussions. They offer advice but don't insist that the child take it. These parents are self-aware. They keep their own emotions in check. Their availability has no limits. More importantly, they don't hover over their children and don't become overly involved. They recognize that their children need to be given a wide berth. Their children have to be allowed to make decisions, whether good or bad. This allows them to learn from both.
If you would like to read more about the Available Parents, Dr. John Duffy offers private advice and additional books on his website.

1. If it's "pre-seasoned", do I not have to season it again after washing? 2. Can it be washed in the dishwasher? 3. Exactly how would I "pre-season" if I need to?
Hello, you do not need to fully season this product after washing, just dry it completely right away and then rub lightly with oil and set aside for storage. This product is not dishwasher safe. There are different ways to pre-season a cast iron product, but generally it is rubbed with oil and then heated in an oven for about an hour and then cooled in the oven before use. Thank you!

Bush was never really interested in taking out bin Laden.He needed his boogeyman to scare the public,to push through his devastating agenda.
Trump asked a foreign power to interfere in a US election. Where's the outrage from the so called "patriotic" Republicans? #TreasonousTrump

Palin blamed Obama for her son's violent outburst. I guess she forgot that Republicans cut VA funding?! #TheFive #PTSD
Bristol Palin said Obama is a bad role model for his kids. Her father is a great role model. Did she forget she got knocked up in the woods?
#Hostess execs gave themselves a 70-80% raise last year. Now they file bankruptcy beacuse the labor won't accept an 8% pay cut. Go figure.
Right Wingers are saying Obama shouldn't use a national tragedy to pass gun legislation. Didn't Bush use 9/11 to pass the Patriot Act? #tcot
