Loved the kindness of staff and funny drag shows as well as seven size room for the money.
Super slow elevator, thin walls were not fun when you have couples coming in screwing loudly at 4am. Wasn't sure I saw any of the staff wash hands when dealing with breakffast so I chose to never order the full English breakfast. Not sure rooms were vacuumed.
The staff are amazing! Super friendly and warm. They will go beyond expectations.
If you don't have a sea view you will get a side view of a wall and when the window is open you can hear the outside generators
A technical error was made and we were accidentally assigned a room that already had an occupant. The reception staff was only too happy to upgrade us to a superior room by way of apology.
The room was large
Hotel was tired and in need of brightening up, which. One member of staff covering reception and the bar on Friday night. Check your bill, as some mistakes did occur.
Near the sea and main facilities
Friendly, helpful staff. Clean and quiet. Good location on seafront. Nice little bar. Good value for money. Booked a double room for myself and then my son and his friend found the hostel unacceptable so booked a single for his friend and my son shared with me. Staff very helpful.
total party hotel- drunken slobs everywhere and very loud. Request a non-smoking room when booking if you value lung function. Bring earplugs if you are staying.
Location is great. I am sure this was once a great hotel.
Mold everywhere, peeling paint and wallpaper... Lack of maintenance and neglect destroyed what was once a great hotel.
With some investments, this could be a great place. But right now an average Motel 6 is cleaner than this place.
Very pleasant and helpful staff.
The reception area and dining area were very cold. I also felt that the music in those areas was a bit loud and dominating.The double bed was smaller than anticipated.
the comfortable clean modern and quiet rooms
Old (!) rooms
Unfriendly staff
Broken windsor fixed with tin foil
Staff mostly trainees who don't have a clue
the best in many things
comfort and value for the money
friendly staff, great cocktail bar, very contemporary rooms although pink is not my colour (better half chose this!!) was excellent and the Location was perfect for christmas shopping and restaurants.
The room service food selection was very poor, we really wanted a pizza, sandwich etc but could only get a cheese and bread board.
The position in Brighton, we stay quite often as my son lives in Brighton and it is the first time I noticed your hotel.
I found the hotel room unwelcoming and the bathroom was so small you couldn't turn arround in it. My daughter and I had trouble trying to get ready at the same time. The colours were a bit "in your face" I know I am older than perhaps most of your guests, but even my son and daughter thought it was not very restful.We also had to move rooms as the television did not work. The rooms were over the bottle bins and they were being filled most of the evening and emptied at about 6am on Monday morning which I realise someone has to stay in those rooms but if everything else had been OK it wouldn't have been a problem. It was a nice hotel but for me a little bit too modern. Also the reception desk was far too small to do anything on.
The service and staff were excellent. The room was of a very high standard and the location was perfect.
The breakfast that we had from room service was very good but could have done with being a bit warmer.
friendly efficient staff, cleanliness, comfy bed
no tea/coffee in our room, no window to outside, enquired about plug adapter i left in room, no reply.
The hotel had been tastefully refurbished and had a pleasant atmosphere. Good breakfast and friendly service. Good value and location, handy for the town and beach.
comfy bed and breakfast
the room smelt of cigarettes
Position geographically, close to beach and shops.
Meeting point for every stag and hen night in front of hotel, because the rooms where so warm you had to have the windows open and the last talking stopped at 5.30 am and the traffic took over at 7.00am
Nice big room, plenty space to include the baby buggy. Excellent location right on seafront, very close to the Pier. Right on Town Centre for shopping.
Expensive parking on site. Room right outside next door Fish & Chip shop, open until 4am which was noisy for baby, room was on left side of building, a room on other side may have been quieter.
Cleanliness and friendly staff
On our arrival, one of the owners jumped in the car to take us to an available parking space which was a great help. We were shown to our room which was bright and clean with a contemporary style. As we were out quite early both mornings and therefore missed breakfast we were given freshly made bacon sandwiches to take with us which was a nice addition.
We felt the price was a bit expensive and the shower could have been a power shower.....especially after a day of kite surfing!!
quick check-in, not noise problem despite central area , parking ok in Grand Avenue.
Room fine for 3 star apart from very worn red carpet that let room down - looked dusty at first sight but was where worn out in main places - room 301.
Room clean and comfortable.
Not easy to get to room. Up one floor then a long walk to stairs down again to room. Very poor breakfast as buffet style. Food not kept hot and also dry.
Cold shower when asked to sort was told it was 'warm enough' service was disgusting, asked to speak to manager but was not available
The location was the best thing about this hotel.
It is in need of a complete overhaul. The whole place is cramped, our room was crammed with fake tudor furnishing which were cheap and falling apart. If you get make-up on the towels, they want to charge you between £10-£20 per towel, the whole bale would not cost that much new. Sea view was spoilt as the condensation build up in the morning between the window and double glazing ruins the view.
I liked everything about the hotel. Staff, the bar, the rooms, etc.
I had a family style room, it had two small twin beds that kept separating.
Great location close to the train station. Clean and functional with good service.

Pulled over car has city registration
Southbury official told dispatcher 'this guy's nuts'
|Paul Liphardt conducts a traffic stop on a black Volkswagen Jetta at the intersection of Route 188 at Benson Road in Middlebury at 2:56 p.m. on June 24. Liphardt, Southbury's assistant building official and zoning enforcement officer, did not have authorization to take the car to Middlebury, or to pull anyone over. Liphardt called Southbury police to say the driver of the Jetta almost ran his car off the road. An audio recording of the telephone call released Wednesday reveals the car was registered to a Waterbury resident. Contributed
The Republican-American on Wednesday obtained a recording of a telephone call made by Paul Liphardt, Southbury's assistant building official and zoning enforcement officer, to the town's emergency dispatch center after he pulled the Jetta over with his blue town-issued Ford Crown Victoria sedan on Route 188 in Middlebury.
Liphardt, who did not have authorization to take the car to Middlebury, or to pull anyone over, called Southbury's dispatch center on a non-emergency line at 2:56 p.m. June 24, records show.
He identified himself to the dispatcher, and said he was doing inspections in the area. His work log shows he was supposed to be inspecting deck footings that afternoon at a home on the Main Street North side of Old Waterbury Road, more than three miles from where he pulled the Jetta over.
He told the dispatcher he was on Route 188 by the sharp turn between Judd and Old Waterbury roads when his town-issued car — a hand-me-down cruiser from the police department — was nearly struck by a car coming in the opposite direction.
"I got this Volkswagen. I made him stop. He's coming around the corner about 80 miles an hour. He almost wiped me completely out. I had to go off the road," Liphardt said in the recording. "You know, I've got SBY-33 car (the Crown Victoria's license plate number). He stopped, and I don't know if you guys want to do anything or not."
The dispatcher asked Liphardt, who is on paid administrative leave pending an investigation of his actions by the town attorney, if there was damage to the car.
"No. It was close, but I got off the road and got back on," Liphardt said. "It's just, he was going like a maniac. He pulled over."
"Are you still up there now, or ..." the dispatcher asked.
"Yeah. This guy's nuts. I don't know if there's anything you can do," Liphardt replied.
The dispatcher told Liphardt the police were on a shift change, and there was no one available to help him. Liphardt gave the dispatcher the Jetta's license plate number, and told him to check it later.
"This guy is out of control. He almost wiped out three people," Liphardt said.
"Is he on something, or you don't know?" the dispatcher asked.
"I don't know. He's a, you know, he's a colored guy. Big. I can't tell what he's on," Liphardt said.
The dispatcher ran the license plate through a computer, and told Liphardt the Jetta came back registered to an address in Waterbury. The dispatcher said the car had valid registration, and was not stolen.
The dispatcher told Liphardt he could come to the resident trooper's office and give a statement.
"We've got nobody out there now. If you want to come in and talk to an officer about it he can give this guy a call, or ... I can just give it to the guys later on to keep an eye out for him," the dispatcher said.
"Yeah ... it's a pain in the . . . right now, but just keep an eye on him coming through town again or something like that," Liphardt said.
The two-minute, 32-second call ended a few seconds later. The unidentified driver of the Jetta continued east on Route 188. Liphardt returned to Southbury.
Liphardt said during an interview last week with the newspaper that he confronted the driver, although he mentioned nothing about that confrontation in the telephone call to the dispatcher.
Middlebury police have been given information to contact the registered owner of the car, Resident Trooper Sgt. Michael O'Donnell said.
Richard Guisti, Middlebury's police chief, gave his officers orders this week to track down the driver so they could get his version of what happened.
He has not said whether Liphardt or the driver of the Jetta will face charges — Liphardt for pulling the driver over, and the driver for almost causing an accident.
The incident involving Liphardt and the Jetta was part of a larger investigation of the zoning official this summer by the Republican-American.
The newspaper investigation revealed numerous days when Liphardt left Town Hall, either in the town-issued Crown Victoria or his maroon Dodge pickup, and drove to his condominium off Southford Road, went shopping, bought food, did his banking and visited the post office when his time sheets said he was being paid to work.

The paper presents a simple approach for analyzing switched reluctance motors (SRMs) operating under multiphase excitation. The analysis results in specific design coefficients [derived from the SRM flux and magnetomotive force (MMF) distributions that can be used in a methodology] to calculate the SRMs initial dimensions while taking into account the magnetic loading and electric loading. Finally, the approach enables comparison of SRM configurations for an application without performing complete designs. The magnetic loading (i.e., saturation) and torque of various SRM configurations designed using the proposed approach are verified through finite-element analysis (FEA).

Miniparade for the kids set for Jan. 12
Published: Friday, January 4, 2008 at 2:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 3, 2008 at 11:00 p.m.
The Krewe of Aphrodite is bringing Mardi Gras back to the children of Houma with a miniparade and contest at 2 p.m. Jan. 12 in the parking lot of the Rouses Supermarket on West Main Street in Houma.
Children ages 12 and under are invited to dress in costume and decorate a wagon or other nonmotorized transportation as a Mardi Gras float to join the childrens parade and compete for prizes in their age group.
Angie Helluin, lieutenant of the "Bad to the Bone" float that coordinates the childrens parade, said the 450 members of the all-female krewe like to give something back to the children.
"A lot of times the kids dont get to see the other side of a parade," she said. "Theyre usually standing on the streets while we throw beads and trinkets. In this parade, they get to see what its like to be center stage, with everyone vying for their attention."
The krewe selects a king and queen for the childrens parade, usually special needs children from the community, Helluin said.
"They get to be king and queen for a day," she said. "For Aphrodite, this is what Mardi Gras is all about -- children having a good time."
The parade, which circles the Rouses parking lot, is something special to see, Helluin said. Most of the floats are wagons pulled by parents, and the children are usually dressed in themed costumes. The children arent required to dress up, but it is encouraged in the spirit of Mardi Gras.
Prizes will be given for first, second and third places, as well as best individual costume, best group costume and best minifloat. The krewe also will hand out door prizes. All the prizes are donations from krewe members and local businesses.
Registration will begin at 2 p.m. Jan. 12. The parade and judging will begin at 3 p.m. Entry is free. Rouses king cake and punch will be served after the parade.
The miniparade is a warmup for the coming carnival season. The Krewe of Aphrodite parade will begin at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 1.
For more information, call Helluin at 688-1279.

NEW YORK (October 11, 2013)—Miley Cyrus and Imagine Dragons are the first performers to be announced for the American Music Awards show.
Cyrus created a wave of controversy after her appearance on the MTV Video Music Awards this year, but the AMAs have had to walk a fine line with performances.
Adam Lambert's 2009 AMA performance generated hundreds of calls to the Federal Communications Commission after he kissed a male bass player and grabbed the crotch of another male member of the band.

Hi-def in-car video greatly exceeds previous recording capabilities
A Mich. police department upgraded from an antiquated low-definition system
Observer & Eccentric
FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. — The Farmington Hills Police Department has purchased and installed the newest high definition police in-car video system to replace an antiquated low definition system.
With the old system failing and the cost of repairs becoming exceedingly cumbersome, the time was right to replace and upgrade the technology, said Farmington Hills Police Chief Chuck Nebus.
This new system, appropriately named "Watchguard," digitally records police/citizen contacts, and then wirelessly transmits these events to a secure server. Along with the new HD video, this upgrade also includes new wireless microphones with a line of sight range of up to two miles, and it is capable of maintaining audio reception through buildings, greatly exceeding previous capabilities.

Southern Cross was placed in receivership in early March,
owing the ANZ bank $58 million, directly jeopardising 400
The recent high cost of buying New Zealand logs, because of
Chinese demand, has driven down sawmillers' profit margins to
the point of not being commercially viable.
Amalgamated Workers Union spokesman Calvin Fisher said, when
contacted, the longer receiver KordaMentha took to determine
the company's future, the more the likelihood the company
assets might have to be split up for individual sale.
''Time is running out for those 400 staff. Receivers gave the
impression it could be sold as a going concern, but it could
also be sold in bits,'' Mr Fisher said.
He said included in the mix of assets were forward processing
contracts, which he understood made up to 35% of assets, but
if those contracts were lost, any perceived benefit ''becomes
null and void''.
''Clearly, there's's no appetite for risk from the bank,'' Mr
Fisher said, on questioning the bank holding $58 million in
debt, while estimated assets were $78 million; or $20 million
more than the debt.
While the high log price and near record strength of the New
Zealand dollar still prevailed, the Dunedin City Council
would eventually ''regret'' the loss of 400 skilled jobs and
availability of a sawmill, once log prices declined, he said.
Mr Fisher has in recent weeks urged council-owned City
Forests to supply more logs to Southern Cross, given its
large forest holdings and the implications of losing local
KordaMentha has about three more weeks before being required
to file its first report on the state of the company,
including whether it be broken up and sold, offered as a
going concern for sale, or placed in full liquidation.

Rated 4 / 5 stars
excellent work, you really took a well known song and instilled a totally new vibe to it.
I only wish it were longer
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Getting there, I like that you extended it a bit, but from what I have heard I think you can do better. I really want to hear a 3 minute or longer version.
I like how you used the drop outs for the instruments. A lot of remixes tend to drown out the vocals, but keeping the vocals on top keeps the song strong.
Keep at it. Let me know if you want any more input.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
cool sounding and its a good song to like flashback or something.

Utilities diss utility-only cap
A climate bill without any emissions cap may be politically unworkable, as we've seen — Stick a fork in the energy-only bill: Lindsey Graham (R-SC) slams push for a "half-assed energy bill".
Because of the challenge of getting 60 votes for an economy-wide emissions cap, some folks are pursuing the idea of a climate bill with a cap just on utility emissions.
I have serious doubts that works politically. I have bigger doubts that such a bill would satisfy the requirements needed for a good bill, not the least of which is that it must enable a global deal, which requires meeting the U.S. promise of close to a 17% emissions reduction in total U.S. GHG emissions by 2020. The utility sector covers about one third of U.S. emissions, and a utility-only bill is not going to require, say, a 50% reduction in utility emissions by 2020. Indeed, it would likely be far less.
As E&E News (subs. req'd) reports today, "it is far from certain that Senate politics would be any different if lawmakers set aside the House-passed economywide approach that goes after major energy, transportation and manufacturing companies — accounting for more than two-thirds of U.S. emissions."
Not surprisingly, utilities, which were key to passage of the first ever climate bill in the House, aren't signing up to be the sole focus of emissions reductions:
EEI is urging the Senate to stick with an economywide approach. And several of its biggest member companies are also speaking out on the need to keep the emission limits as broad as possible.
"We don't agree that there should be a utility-only bill," said Melissa McHenry, a spokeswoman at Columbus, Ohio-based American Electric Power Corp. "In our view, it'd just raise electricity costs for some utilities and it wouldn't address the bigger situation, which is global concentrations of CO2, because you'd only be capping a small portion of U.S. emissions, and you're just going to raise electricity costs in a big portion of the United states without having a global agreement to address overall climate emissions."
Chicago-based Exelon Corp., which runs the nation's largest fleet of nuclear power-generating plants, offered a similar plea. "We continue to be a consistent and forceful advocate for comprehensive economywide cap-and-trade legislation," said spokesman Paul Elsberg.
"We're focused on comprehensive energy and climate legislation," added Randy Clerihue of FPL Group, the Juno Beach, Fla., umbrella company for NextEra Energy Resources LLC, and Florida Power & Light Co.
Industry lobbyist Scott Segal said he doubts a power plant-only approach has much of a chance on Capitol Hill as lawmakers representing the power companies would quickly start to hear about how they are taking on too great of a burden compared with other industrial sectors.
"I don't see how it changes the math very much," Segal said. "Even if it's utilities only, it's still a big honking bill with potential for regional disparities. And if it's not properly constructed, I don't think the politics are any different."
I'm still inclined to think that right now, we're in an all or nothing at all situation when it comes to comprehensive, bipartisan climate and energy legislation.
Graham, Kerry, and Lieberman seem to be working on some hybrid strategy that doesn't treat every sector of the economy the same, but still gets you the required economy wide reductions and a carbon price. I haven't seen any details on their plan, which he isn't expected until next month.
4 Responses to Utilities diss utility-only cap
What ever became of the *sectoral approach* once advocated by NRDC.
It made a lot of sense but had no legs because it got in the way of the W-M freight train.
Forget a bill that puts a cap only on utilities and leaves everything else uncapped and without any means to result in a price for carbon. Forget it. It won't work, and it would only be a damaging defeat for the climate cause relative to other industries that pump products that put huge amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere and show no signs of wanting to slow that down — e.g., oil.
If such a bill is passed, "I quit". And if such a bill is supported by folks in the oil lobby, at ExxonMobil, or etc., all the more reason (we've got plenty already!) to boycott them, pronto.
Cap and Trade vs. Carbon tax
From a political point of view, many say, there is no way to legislate a carbon tax in the USA. Most businesses want cap & trade to allow them to continue to emit greenhouse gases as long as they can at the minimum cost. And Congress obviously is highly "influenced" by the business lobby. Money speaks lauder than reality in Congress.
We continue to lie to ourselves, and most of the environmental movement is keeping quiet about this issue. But it is bigger than C&T, it is fiction vs., Nature.
It is obvious that carbon tax is a much superior approach to cutting GHG. But it will force the fossil fuel industry and the electric power industry to change their customary ways of large GHG emission, and will reduce their profits. And the financial sector will not be able to speculate profitably with C&T permits. So they all oppose it vigorously.
Lets' summarize the differences: (Good info in Harper Feb. issue by Mark Shapiro)
The superiority of carbon tax is that it is more accurate means of cutting GHG.
It is easier to tax, easier to monitor, and harder to evade. As a result it is easier and faster to implement, requires relatively low administration, and thus less costly to the economy.
In short, you know what you are dealing with, and you can achieve the results our nation needs.
Cap & Trade has all the opposite characteristics: It is considerably more complex, by at least ten to one, very harder to monitor, easier to falsify data- to claim you did more than you actually achieve. And since C&T is very hard to monitor it will NOT cut GHG by the amount expected. Studies of the European experience indicated that the claims were some 30% higher than the real cuts in GHG. It is clear that if businesses will find any loopholes, they will use them extensively: less cuts in GHG, higher cost to the public.
[JR: No. Very hard to falsify data. Very easy to track coal, oil, natural gas use in quantity.]
And one of the most appealing aspects to the financial sector of C&T is a very big and hugely profitable financial trading in C&T Permits and Futures. It is estimated to be in the many trillions dollar range – much larger than the recent financial speculation that brought us to the current global economic near-collapse.
[JR: This is rather easy to deal with and avoid.]
The pressure by the all powerful financial industry in the US may be the largest forcing element in the C&T picture. When they are expecting profits in hundreds of billions, no limit is set on their lobbying. The financial sector- now a powerful 20% of our total US economy, has immensely powerful political influence that the environmental sector is unable to comprehend. The financial sector controls our country more than any other sector since it is the largest sector, and the one with the most amount of ready lobbying cash. And the one with a very low morality. (see the recent PBS exposition of the banking industry).
Now add to the above that the IPCC underestimated the speed of global warming, and that we must add a safety factor to the needed reductions- we do not have neither time to delay action and we should not tolerate half measures. Nature does not care about our political games.
And that is what I am leading to; Our country is govern to a large extent by the laws Congress pass. Even the president has limited ability to influence Congress. And it is obvious that Congress is unable to function in the interest of the nation. Congress does not want to do what the country needs – curtail the rise in GHG emission. (Obviously some Congresspersons are much better than others, but the majority rule.)
We need true leadership and we do not have any now: Leadership means willingness to risk, willingness to put the national interest above your own.
As long as Congress does not face the reality of its actions, the reality of nature, as long as Congress continues to mislead itself and believes in convoluted ways represented by Cap and Trade, there is very little likelihood that the US will cut its GHG emissions by the required amount to limit the expected rise in global temperature.
This utility-only thing really irks me. The first I saw of it was Fmr. Sen. Tim Wirth:
This isn't SO2 trading we're talking about. An economy wide problem requires an economy wide solution.

EU leaders opened tough talks over a trillion-euro budget hours late Thursday amid sharp differences over spending cuts and investment for growth and jobs.
The meeting got underway almost six hours behind schedule as leaders of the 27-nation bloc held backroom talks and Britain, notably, pressed for huge cuts in EU spending over the rest of the decade.
EU president and chair of the talks, Herman Van Rompuy, said as the summit began that he had held productive discussions in recent weeks and was "confident that around this table we can now settle on a final compromise."
Leaders needed to keep in mind "the bigger picture," he said, adding: "We need a budget for the future with a clear focus on growth, innovation and creating jobs, especially for young people."

What Is Shyness?
Lots of kids and adults are shy. Maybe you are one of them.
Shyness means to feel a little scared when you're around other people. Just about everybody feels shy sometimes. If you're the new kid in class or your Aunt Betty wants to give you a big hug, it can make you feel shy.
Nobody sits around and says, "Well, I think I'll be shy today." It is just something that happens. It can just sneak up on you. You might feel fine practicing your soccer kicks, but then feel nervous when the coach comes over to give you a few pointers.
But being shy isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's OK if it takes you a while to feel comfortable with new people and new situations. In fact, it can even be helpful to be a little shy. When you're shy, you may spend a little extra time observing the scene before jumping right into it. And you're unlikely to talk to strangers, which you shouldn't do anyway!
What Causes Shyness?
Some kids are born shy and more sensitive. Sometimes even babies act shy. Have you ever seen a baby hide his or her face from a stranger? On the other hand, another baby might kick, smile, and wave at everyone, even strangers.
Even if you weren't shy as a little kid, it's still possible to be a shy person. You might have learned to be shy because of experiences you've had at school or home. And sometimes you only feel shy for a short while, like the first time you get on a new school bus. This type of shyness often goes away after you get adjusted. For instance, after a few days, you'll probably have a seat you like to sit in and you'll get to know friends on the bus.
Can Shyness Be Serious?
Sometimes, people become so shy they are afraid to do simple things in life. For example, they won't go to a restaurant because they're too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some people are so shy about meeting new people that they rarely go outside. Doctors and psychologists often can help a person work through this kind of shyness.
If your shyness is keeping you from doing stuff you want to do, talk to someone about it. Parents, teachers, counselors, and doctors are all good people to turn to. Talking about your shyness might help you manage it. Or your friends or parents may tell you that they, too, have the same shy feelings and what they do to feel less shy. If you still feel really shy, your mom or dad might take you to see a psychologist, who can help you figure out how to feel more at ease around people.
If you know someone who's shy, try to help the person feel less nervous. Name-calling or teasing will make your friend feel even more shy, so try not to do it. The more time you spend with the person, the less shy he or she will feel around you. You might even talk about a time that you felt shy. It will help your friend to understand that everyone feels shy sometimes, even you!

These specific genetic changes may be combined with traditional clinical factors such as patient age and tumor stage to refine neuroblastoma risk classes.
Children whose tumors have lost a copy of 11q are older at diagnosis, and their tumors contain more segmental chromosome changes in gene copy number compared with children whose tumors show MYCN amplification.[19,20] Moreover, segmental chromosome changes not detected at diagnosis may be found in neuroblastomas at relapse. This suggests that clinically important tumor progression is associated with accumulation of segmental chromosomal alterations.[21]
Molecular features
Approximately 6% to 10% of sporadic neuroblastomas carry somatic ALK-activating mutations, and an additional 3% to 4% have a high frequency of ALK gene amplification. The mutations result in constitutive phosphorylation of ALK, leading to dysregulation of cell signaling and uncontrolled proliferation of the ALK-mutant neuroblasts. Thus, inhibition of ALK kinase is a potential target for treatment of neuroblastoma, especially in children whose tumors harbor an ALK mutation or ALK gene amplification.[22]
Genome-wide association studies in children with neuroblastoma have found common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with a modest susceptibility to develop high-risk neuroblastoma.[23,24] Other SNPs are associated with susceptibility to develop low-risk neuroblastoma.[24] SNPs associated with race predict a higher incidence of neuroblastoma and worse outcome.[25]
Large genomic studies have found few recurrent gene mutations in patients with neuroblastoma, including ALK (9.2%), PTPN11 (2.9%), ATRX (2.5%; 7.1% focal deletions), MYCN (1.7%), and NRAS (0.8%).[19,21,26,27]ATRX is involved in epigenetic gene silencing and telomere length. ATRX mutation without MYCN amplification is associated with older age at diagnosis in adolescents and young adults with metastatic neuroblastoma.[28] It is unclear whether an ATRX mutation is an independent prognostic risk factor.
Neuroblastoma Screening
Current data do not support neuroblastoma screening. Screening at the ages of 3 weeks, 6 months, or 1 year caused no reduction in the incidence of advanced-stage neuroblastoma with unfavorable biological characteristics in older children, nor did it reduce the number of deaths from neuroblastoma in infants screened at any age.[11,12] No public health benefits have been shown from screening infants for neuroblastoma at these ages. (Refer to the PDQ summary on Neuroblastoma Screening for more information.)

STOCK MARKETS NEWS (More)
Thursday May 2, 2013 12:26 PM
By Ryan Vlastelica
NEW YORK - U.S. stocks advanced about 1 percent on Thursday as data pointed to improved labor market conditions a day before the closely watched payroll report, while the European Central Bank took steps to shore up the euro zone economy.
Jobless claims fell sharply in the latest week, dropping to their lowest since the early days of the 2007-09 recession.
The data follows a string of underwhelming reports, including a slow rate of growth in factory activity in the United States and China, which added to concerns about the pace of growth going into the April jobs report. Analysts are looking for 145,000 jobs to have been added in the month, up from the 88,000 added in March.
"U.S. markets are very focused on jobs, and the claims report suggests the positive trend of hiring could be continuing," said Weyman Gong, chief investment strategist at Signature in Norfolk, Virginia.
In an effort to boost the recession-hit euro zone economy, the ECB cut interest rates for the first time in 10 months and held out the possibility of further action. The move follows Wednesday's Federal Reserve statement in which the Fed said it will continue its bond buying scheme to keep interest rates low and spur growth, and would step up purchases if needed.
"This shows that central banks are very determined to ensure that the system is stable and that the global economy continues to be propped up if needed," said Gong, who helps oversee about $2.5 billion. "This makes us very comfortable with U.S. markets for the rest of the year."
The Dow Jones industrial average was up 129.59 points, or 0.88 percent, at 14,830.54. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 15.68 points, or 0.99 percent, at 1,598.38. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 44.50 points, or 1.35 percent, at 3,343.63.
The S&P fell almost 1 percent Wednesday in its largest drop in two weeks. The benchmark earlier hit its record high intraday level at 1,598.58 and is up nearly 12 percent so far this year.
The Nasdaq advanced on strength large-cap tech shares like Apple Inc
Also boosting tech shares was Facebook Inc
General Motors
With 76 percent of the S&P 500 having reported, 68.5 percent have topped profit expectations, more than the 67 percent average over the past four quarters. However, only 45.6 percent have topped revenue expectations, below the 52 percent beat rate over the past year.

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2

Point out the kink aspects to customers looking for edgier material.
"More anal sex," is Lauren Phoenix's response to Jack's query of what America needs most, and sure enough, that's what she gets from Mark Ashley in four positions (plus a glass buttplug, anal beads, 69, mish and doggie) in this latest addition to the Jack's Teen America line. It's the feature's best scene, but fortunately, things don't go very far downhill from there.
Kink fans will like Sativa Rose's getting ball-gagged, paddled and finger-fucked before the mish, reverse cowgirl and doggie... and then there's Rachel Rotten in a cheerleader costume getting crop-whacked on her pussy. Plenty of head follows, plus both cowgirl positions and mish.
The finale has cute Meagan flashing in a parking lot by the freeway before getting ball-gagged, wrist-cuffed and led on a leash by Tommy Gunn. But she's out of the restraints for doggie and reverse cowgirl.

Hello, looking for suggestions for a middle name for Lydia. I'm currently 3 months pregnant with number 2. We are hoping for a girl, we both like the name Lydia but are not sure for a middle name. We like differnt names...We have a son who is almost 3 years old right now, his name is Draven Wolverine. Wolverine is my husbands middle name. So any suggestions would be nice. Our last name is St.Clair in case you needed to know.
Middle name for Lydia?
I wanted to name my second due this Jan. Vydia and my mom really liked the middle name Stone...but then hubby said name sounded to much like Viddit...or video nerd...I was offended and the name hasn't been the same to me since so I can't use it now. I like the name Lydia a lot better but don't worry I wont steal it. :P
Lydia Stone....??
Nadia Ava Born at 28 weeks & 2 days weighting at 880 grams. My Miracle.
lydia anne was the first thing to come to mind, but i know you like different names... hmm.. lydia corinne, lydia carys, lydia moon, lydia antoinette, lydia elodie, lydia serafina.... hmm, different names are hard to come by tonight lol. but i love lydia, i think thats an awesome name. lydia stone would work.

I love Lydia!!! it's my Grandma's name but since DH has a cousin or friend or something with that name, he refuses to use it. Her name is Lydia Mae.
Any family names you could use? Perhaps your fn or mn or one of the grandmas?
Is there a whimsical name that you like but are not brave enough to use as a fn?
If not, I'm partial to nature names or something traditional in the mn slot. Since last name begins with S, avoid a mn that ends in the S sound (Grace sounds like Gray for example).
Catherine / Katherine / Katharine / Kathryn
Rebecca / Rebekah
No, really - it isn't "uniQuE" if it's in the Top 1000!
How about your middle name? Your ds gets your DH's middle name and your daughter gets yours?
~Katie, wife to Aaron and mommy to Cassidy Jamie (2/18/2007)
Confident with my choice of being "one and done!"
I love Lydia! Lydia Joan St. Clair is very nice. I don't think you can go wrong with Lydia though.
Lydia Primrose? Then you get the unusual/whimsical thing you've got going on with Wolverine.
Mom to my beautiful girls M (2009) and I (2011)

I have a raspberry pi with a webserver and ftpserver running. (apache and proftpd) its just a little website, a playground.
I would like my files to be backed up every time I update/change them via FTP. So when I upload my new, changed, html-file, the old one should be copied over in another directory, possibly with date and time in the filename.
I would then set a maximum number of files in this directory, so it doesn't fill up my whole space.
Like I said, it doesn't have to be perfect, it's just a small playgroud where I'm testing some things, but I would still like to have at least some earlier versions of the files available.
