About 13,500 former Madoff clients were named today in the first official filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan. As the God Blog reported earlier, Sandy Koufax was added to the growing list of celebrity clients—Kyra Sedgwick, Larry King, Kevin Bacon, Steven Spielberg—swindled in the $50 billion Ponzi scheme.
But the same 162-page list that outed the Dodger great also spilled details about ordinary folk, including those who live here in Southern California. The L.A. Daily News has posted a searchable database of California Madoff victims. The searches list only names, cities and zip codes; no amounts were given in today's court filing.
If you're still craving more detail (sans dollar figures), you can download all of Exhibit A here, titled simply "Customers." The list includes mostly individuals, trusts and funds—few charities and institutions—with some names repeated multiple times, which could indicate multiple accounts with Madoff.

La Colorada is an underground polymetallic silver mine located in the Sierra Madre mountain range in Zacatecas, Mexico, and was acquired by Pan American in 1998. Silver, gold, zinc, and lead mineralization is present as epithermal veins, breccia pipes, mantos, and lime stone replacements in three main zones known as Candelaria, Estrella, and Recompensa. The mining method used throughout is cut and fill stoping.
Oxide and sulphide ore is treated in separate oxide and sulphide plants. The oxide plant comprises a conventional cyanide leach plant consisting of crushing, ball mill grinding, leaching, Merrill-Crowe zinc precipitation, and on-site refining to produce silver and gold doré. The sulphide plant is a conventional flotation plant comprised of crushing, ball mill grinding, and selective lead and zinc froth flotation circuits to recover silver, gold, zinc, and lead into separate lead and zinc concentrates. The daily processing capacity of the oxide plant is 650 tonnes and the capacity of the sulphide plant is 750 tonnes.
An expansion project was approved in December 2013 to increase the overall production rate of the operation to 1,800 tpd by the end of 2017. The expansion project, which started in 2014 and is expected to be complete by the end of 2017, involves the construction of new mining infrastructure, including a new 600 metre deep extraction shaft with a capacity for hoisting ore and waste of 2,300 tpd as well as serving as the main access to working areas for mine personnel and additional underground development to extend the operation to deeper levels. The sulphide ore processing plant will be expanded to 1,500 tpd from the current capacity of 750 tonnes per day. The expansion plan also includes the installation of a new 115 kV power line connected to the national electricity grid.
In 2014, silver production at La Colorada rose to a record 4.98 million ounces, 9% higher than in 2013, making La Colorada our largest silver producer. The production increase was due to higher throughput and an increase in average silver grades which were achieved using additional equipment acquired as part of the mine's expansion project.
2014 gold production of 2,600 ounces was similar to 2013 production due to lower average gold grades and a 3% decrease in gold recoveries due to mine sequencing. Increased sulphide ore throughput had a positive effect on base metal grades and recoveries, which led to record annual zinc production of 7,700 tonnes and lead production of 3,700 tonnes, 14% and 13% greater than 2013 production, respectively.
2014 cash costs, net of by-products, were $8.14 per silver ounce, the lowest in the Company, and a 14% decrease from 2013 cash costs. Lower cash costs resulted from a 9% increase in silver production and a 17% increase in by-product credits driven by record base metals production, which was slightly offset by lower realized gold prices and gold production.
La Colorada's 2014 all-in sustaining costs per silver ounce sold ("AISCSOS") decreased by 10% to $10.90 from $12.14 in 2013 due to lower production costs, higher by-product credits and an increase in payable silver ounces sold.
The La Colorada expansion project commenced in January 2014 and is expected to increase the mine's annual silver production by approximately 67% to approximately 7.7 million ounces by 2018. The project's main components include a new 600-metre deep shaft and hoisting system, the development of new mining zones, the expansion of the mining fleet, the expansion of the sulphide treatment plant to approximately 1,500 tonnes per day, the expansion and upgrade to the mine's dewatering and ventilation systems, the expansion of the tailings storage facilities and the construction of a new power line.
In 2014, we invested $17.9 million on the La Colorada expansion. The majority was spent to purchase new underground mobile mining equipment, to advance project related underground mine lateral development, on engineering work and equipment purchases for the plant expansion, on new community infrastructure, procurement of the new production hoist, camp and site infrastructure expansions, as well as to fund indirect project costs. Work on the expansion project advanced on track during 2014.
La Colorada is expected to produce between 4.90 and 5.00 million ounces of silver, similar to 2014 production. 2015's processing rates are estimated at between 1,260 and 1,275 tonnes per day, with sulphide ore from the Candelaria mine zone comprising 60% of the total mine production, similar to 2014's ore distribution. Oxide ore feed is expected to contribute the remaining 40% with the majority coming from the Estrella mine zone. Base metals by-product production is expected to be consistent with 2014 production.
2015 cash costs per silver ounce of $8.50 to $9.25 are expected, an increase from $8.14 per ounce in 2014, primarily due to minor production interferences expected from the new shaft excavation project, which will somewhat reduce underground mine productivity. This is expected to be partially offset by Mexican Peso devaluation.
In 2015, sustaining capital expenditures at La Colorada are expected to decrease from 2014 to between $11.0 million and $12.0 million and are expected to be allocated as follows: $7.2 million for mine related capital, the largest components being a mine discharge water treatment plant (primarily sediment removal), a ventilation raise, and equipment rehabilitation; $1.4 million in development exploration; and $1.1 million in processing plant capital.
AISCSOS at La Colorada for 2015 is expected to be between $10.95 and $11.70 per ounce, in-line with 2014's AISCSOS.
In addition, capital expenditures relating to La Colorada's expansion project are expected to total between $75.0 million and $80.0 million in 2015. Activities programmed for 2015 include underground mine development and additional equipment purchases, work on a new power line, as well as the expansion of site infrastructure. Key milestones planned for 2015 include completing the physical excavation and detailed engineering for all shaft works, installing the new hoist, fabricating and installing a new headframe, advancing the lining and equipping of the shaft, and completing construction of the new plant sufficiently that commissioning can be completed by mid-year 2016. The new hoist and new shaft installations are also targeted for completion by mid-2016.

Volume 95, Issue 9, 31 August 2009
Microassembly based on origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, presents an attractive methodology for constructing complex three-dimensional (3D) devices and advanced materials. A variety of functional structures have been created using patterned metallic, semiconducting, and polymericthin films, but have been limited to those that curve in a single direction. We report a design framework that can be used to achieve spontaneous bidirectional folds with any desired angle, and we demonstrate theoretical and experimental realizations of complex 3D structures with , −90°, , and −180° folds. The strategy is parallel, versatile, and compatible with conventional microfabrication.
Photonic bandgap engineering with inverse opal multistacks of different refractive index contrasts95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3216582View Description Hide Description
We have self-assembled photonic crystal with a multistack structure using same size of spheres but from materials with different refractive indices., ZnO, and are infiltrated into opal templates by atomic layer deposition. Stacking multiple inverse opalstructures with different refractive index contrasts broadens the reflection bands dramatically. Numerical simulations with plane wave expansion method show good agreement with experimental results.
Slow light in narrow paraffin-coated vapor cells95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3207825View Description Hide Description
Alkali vapor cells with antirelaxation coated walls can have long atomic coherence times. However, using such coated cells in the hyperfine configuration for electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) requires longitudinal atomic motion to be confined to less than the hyperfine wavelength. We employed a narrow (1 mm) coated cell geometry to study hyperfine EIT and slow and stored light in warm vapor, with results comparable to those in buffer gas cells and showing the promise of such cells for several applications.
Practical fast gate rate InGaAs/InP single-photon avalanche photodiodes95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3223576View Description Hide Description
We present a practical and easy-to-implement method for high-speed near infrared single-photon detection based on InGaAs/InP single-photon avalanche photodiodes(SPADs), combining aspects of both sine gating and self-differencing techniques. At a gating frequency of 921 MHz and temperature of we achieve a detection efficiency of 9.3%, a dark count probability of , while the afterpulse probability is , with a 10 ns "count-off time" setting. In principle, the maximum count rate of the SPAD can approach 100 MHz, which can significantly improve the performance for diverse applications.
Extremely high efficient coupling between long range surface plasmon polariton and dielectric waveguide mode95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3212145View Description Hide Description
To connect the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) based devices with the conventional dielectric devices is a significant issue for the further development of SPP and related applications. In this paper, extremely high efficient coupling between long range SPP (LRSPP) waveguide mode and TM mode of dielectric waveguide has been demonstrated from a hybrid coupler, which composed of an Au (LRSPP) waveguide and a SiN (dielectric) waveguide. Based on this hybrid coupler, a polarization splitter with pure TM mode output from one arm and TE mode output from the other arm with high TE/TM extinction ratio has been realized.
Surface-plasmon distributed-feedback quantum cascade lasers operating pulsed, room temperature95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3202765View Description Hide Description
We report distributed-feedback surface-plasmonquantum cascade lasers operating at . The distributed feedback is obtained by the sole patterning of the top metal contact on a surface plasmon waveguide. Single mode operation with more than side mode suppression ratio is obtained in pulsed mode and at room temperature. A careful experimental study confirms that by varying the grating duty cycle, one can reduce the waveguide losses with respect to standard, unpatterned surface-plasmon devices. This allows one to reduce the laser threshold current of more than a factor of 2 in the temperature range. This approach may lead to a fabrication technology for midinfrared distributed-feedback lasers based on a very simple processing.
High efficiency reflective liquid crystal polarization gratings95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3197011View Description Hide Description
We experimentally demonstrate a reflective-mode liquid crystalpolarizationgrating with high reflectance, small grating period, and subms switching times. This switchable optical element can diffract into a single order, have highly polarization-sensitive first orders, and have a polarization-insensitive zero order. Here we introduce an absorbing layer that overcomes the reflection of the (ultraviolet) holographic beams, which otherwise prevents high quality fabrication. At a grating period of , we report 98% diffraction efficiency, 90% reflectance, contrast-ratio, and polarization contrast. These elements can therefore be configured as polarization-independent modulators or switchable polarizing beam splitters, for use in telecommunications, displays, spatial-light modulators, and polarimetry.
Contribution of water droplets to charge release by laser filaments in air95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3220066View Description Hide Description
We measured the electric charge release from single watermicrodroplets illuminated by ultrashort laser filaments in air. This charge is up to 600 times larger than from a comparable filament volume in air. In contrast, for atmospheric droplet concentrations and sizes, the volume-averaged overall droplet contribution to the charge is small as compared with that of the filaments along its whole propagation path.
Laser dynamic forming of functional materials laminated composites on patterned three-dimensional surfaces with applications on flexible microelectromechanical systems95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3222863View Description Hide Description
Laser dynamic forming (LDF) is a three-dimensional (3D) forming technique, which utilizes laser to induce shock wave and shape the target thin films onto micro/nanoscale 3D surfaces. This technique has been used to form metals on 3D surfaces. This letter extends LDF to functional and brittlematerials sandwiched by elastomeric polymers on patterned 3D surface. The elastomeric polymers absorb the shock energy and minimize the degradation of the functional materials. The patterned 3D surfaces control the plasticity in the structure and therefore retain the function of the structure. The performance was evaluated and mechanisms were studied.
Selective excitation of laser modes in an organic photonic dot microcavity95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3222981View Description Hide Description
We experimentally investigate variable laser mode excitation in an organic photonic dot microcavity by shifting the excitation beam position. The sample comprises two highly reflective dielectricmirrors and a square-shaped organic dye mesa of a DCM doped (2 wt %) -matrix. Its wavelength-size transforms the cavity mode dispersion to a set of discrete states, each with a different intensity distribution of the electromagnetic field in space. Numerical simulations, including absorption and gain, confirm the experimentally observed relation between mode distribution and progression on the excitation condition.
High-temperature continuous-wave operation of low power consumption single-mode distributed-feedback quantum-cascade lasers at95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3216074View Description Hide Description
Continuous-wave operation of a distributed-feedback quantum-cascade laser in a packaged module is demonstrated up to a heat sink temperature of with an output power of greater than 10 mW and a power consumption of less than 3.8 W. Single longitudinal mode emission near is observed over a temperature range from 10 to with a side mode suppression ratio greater than 20 dB limited by the instrumentation. A single spatial mode is determined with far-field pattern measurement. The above performance is achieved using a buried heterostructure and a small cavity of .
Capacitance switching in thin film embedded with Ge nanocrystals caused by ultraviolet illumination95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3224191View Description Hide Description
A structure of indium tin oxide/ embedded with Genanocrystal substrate was fabricated. The capacitance of the structure can be switched to a high-capacitance or low-capacitance state by an ultraviolet (UV)illumination. The increase (or decrease) in the capacitance is accompanied with the decrease (or increase) in the oxide resistance. The capacitance switching is explained in terms of the UV illumination-induced charging and discharging in the nc-Ge.

Wakefield driven by Gaussian (1,0) mode laser pulse and laser-plasma electron acceleration95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3187221View Description Hide Description
An ultraintense Gaussian (1,0) mode pulsed laser applied to laser-plasma electron acceleration is investigated based on 2.5-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation(PIC). It has been found that Gaussian (1,0) mode laser pulse may blow out plasma electrons and form two symmetrical electron cavities with an electron wall between them. This electron wall separates two twisting bunches of transverse injected electrons and lets each of them be accelerated in one cavity, respectively. At the front of the wall, a bunch of reflux electrons with a magnetic field contributes to the electron self-bunching effect. This mechanism may generate two symmetrical, high-density, and monoenergetic electron beams with small transverse emittances.

Microassembly based on hands free origami with bidirectional curvature95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3212896View Description Hide Description
Microassembly based on origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, presents an attractive methodology for constructing complex three-dimensional (3D) devices and advanced materials. A variety of functional structures have been created using patterned metallic, semiconducting, and polymericthin films, but have been limited to those that curve in a single direction.

Self-organization of polymer nanoneedles into large-area ordered flowerlike arrays95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3213394View Description Hide Description
Combination of top-down and bottom-up process is crucial for fabricating ordered complex micronanostructures. Here we report a simple, rapid, and versatile approach to demonstrate this useful concept, which involves the joint use of multibeam interference patterning and capillary force self-organization. Regular hydrophobic arrays of four-peddle nanoflowers consisting of bent needles with 300 nm tip diameters are readily produced. A "domino model" based on the balance of the capillary and support forces were proposed to interpret realization of large-area homogeneity of the array. The technology, promising for preparing more complex and functional structures, may find broad utilization in nano and biological researches.
A comprehensive study of the phase diagram of95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3212861View Description Hide Description
The phase diagram of lead-free piezoelectric has been studied, with particular focus on the proposed morphotropic phase boundaries, by powder and single crystalx-ray diffraction. The tilt system and cation displacement has been mapped out as a function of temperature and composition, highlighting changes in the oxygen octahedra at and at room temperature. The orthorhombic to monoclinic boundary at has been investigated, with a subtle change in the structure observed. The conclusion is that does not display a morphotropic phase boundary comparable with that in lead zirconate titanate, and that the most significant structural change as a function of composition occurs at because of the change of the tilt system.
Characterization of the quality of ZnO thin films using reflective second harmonic generation95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3216848View Description Hide Description
A polar mirror symmetrical contribution originated from the arrangement of grain boundaries existing in the ZnOfilm is detected by reflective second harmonic generation pattern. The ordering of ZnOgrain boundary is dependent on the kinetic energy of deposited atoms and affects the quality of ZnOfilms. The net direction of the grain boundary in ZnOfilm trends toward the direction of Si(111) to reach the minimum grain energy for better quality ZnOfilm. The polar structure of the mirrorlike boundaries under the optically macroscopic viewpoint presents a correlation with film quality.
Direct measurement of thermal conductivity of aluminum nanowires95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3216035View Description Hide Description
A nanofabricated electrothermal test structure is reported for directly measuring the thermal conductivity of aluminum nanowires near room temperature. Interdigitated nanowires perturb an otherwise symmetric heater-sensor structure analogous to an electrical bridge circuit. Nanowires studied are 100 nm thick with 75, 100, and 150 nm widths. Finite element simulation accounts for complex device geometry. Thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity vary significantly with nanowire dimensions. Electron transport equation models which adequately describe the resistivity data consistently underestimate the thermal conductivity. Incorporating a phonon contribution of to the total thermal conductivity is found to accurately describe the measured values.
Optical anisotropy readout in solid-state porphyrins for the detection of volatile compounds95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3202400View Description Hide Description
The controlled adsorption of molecules of volatile compounds on Langmuir–Schäfer films of tetraphenylporphyrins produces a modification of the film optical anisotropy, as revealed by reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS). These experiments allow a better understanding of the molecular package occurring in the film as well as of its alteration upon the interaction with volatile compounds, helping in the comprehension of the mechanisms responsible for the binding of molecules. The results recommend RAS as a potential transducer technique for chemical sensing.
Depth-profiling of elastic inhomogeneities in transparent nanoporous low- materials by picosecond ultrasonic interferometry95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3220063View Description Hide Description
We achieve depth-profiling of the elasticity of a thin transparent film of a nanoporous low-material using picosecond acoustic interferometry. The variation in the material properties with depth is extracted from time-resolved femtosecond optical reflectivitymeasurements. More than 40% of the variation in the longitudinal elastic modulus between the front and the back surfaces of an 800 nm thick nanoporous layer is mapped with a 40 nm spatial resolution. We attribute this variation to the spatially inhomogeneous UV curing of the film during fabrication.
Effect of microcontent of oil in water under confined condition95(2009); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3222913View Description Hide Description
The lubricant film thickness between two contacting surfaces is important for the evaluation of lubrication effectiveness. According to the elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory, the film thickness of pure water is usually on the order of a few nanometers. It was found, however, that microcontent of oil contamination can cause a lubricant film more than 100 nm, much thicker than the predicted. The effect of micro-oil content in water between a smooth plate and a highly polished steel ball was investigated. The film forming characteristic of such films was presented. The film formation mechanism and influencing factors were discussed.

Beat any of the bosses listed in the achievement by yourself, and NO one else. After Once you've beaten one of these bosses, do NOT "turn in"(or complete) to whomever assigned you that quest. Instead, quit to the main menu, load your game in split-screen co-op(2 controllers required obviously), and by the time you spawn, the achievement will be yours.

does anyone know if you can get this by returning to a boss? I know the bosses respawn if you return to the area after a while
|Comment #12 by defaultdotxbe
Monday, August 22, 2011 @ 02:02:35 PM
yes you can get this by returning to a respawned boss
also, it works in local (splitscreen) co-op, so if you have a second controller you can actually do this solo, just leave your second guy at the beginning of the area where theres no enemies and go kill the boss on your own

LISTEN, this is the easiest way because you ca do it ALONE!! Listen,go and beat
a boss for example sledge. After you beat him,leave the place and look for a
save.The best one is just before you leave the map and go to another place.When
you get to the save.after it is saved,get out of the game to the menu.Go to coop
and make the other player connect to your game.When you two appear on to the
game.You will get this achievement.Its easy and you can do it alone.

Lortmil Mountains
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)(Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game, the Lortmil Mountains are a mountain chain located in the central part of the Flanaess, forming the eastern border of the Sheldomar Valley.
The Lortmils are noted for their gem and precious metal deposits.
The Lortmils are home to many dwarves, gnomes, and halflings; human settlements are scattered throughout the hills as well, as are scattered flocks of aarakocras.
The Lortmils were once the home of considerable orcish and goblinoid settlements, but these were driven into the Pomarj during the Hateful Wars.
Hateful Wars[edit]
Common Year (CY) 510 completed the end of the Hateful Wars, a decades-long battle against many kinds of humanoids (orcs, goblins, hobgoblins, etc.) which drove them from the Lortmil Mountains. Having no other place to run, they fled to the Pomarj which was too weak and divided to resist the invading forces. Approximately seventy years later, the events in the Scourge of the Slavelords module took place, in the midst of these occupying humanoid forces.
Many dwarven kingdoms are known to inhabit the Lortmils, supplying aid to the Principality of Ulek.
Features and settlements[edit]
The hidden valley of Esmerin, home to a mixed community of tallfellow halflings and stone giants, is somewhere within the Lortmil Mountains as well.

|On sale in May, "Teen Titans" #71 will be Sean McKeever's last as series writer
Writer Sean McKeever announced in a message board post last night that he is leaving âTeen Titansâ with Mayâs issue #71. McKeever scripted the DC Comics series for 22 issues.
âIt's been a wild ride for 22 issues (plus an Annual and Terror Titans)--sometimes good, sometimes bad, and often awesome,â McKeever wrote. âI've really come to care about these kids during my tenure, but now it's time for me to place my focus elsewhere.â
McKeever will continue to be a presence in the title itself, writing a backup feature starring Ravager that begins in issue #71. âIt's gonna be great to get inside Rose's head and write her with a first-person narrative,â he said.
âI want to thank you all for your questions, enthusiasm, praise and criticisms,â McKeever wrote. âIt's been a real pleasure communicating with some of the title's most passionate fans.â

Setaceous Hebrew character
|Setaceous Hebrew character
|Scientific classification
|X. c-nigrum
|Binomial name
|Xestia c-nigrum
(Linnaeus, 1758)
The Setaceous Hebrew character (Xestia c-nigrum) is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in the Palearctic ecozone. It is a common species throughout Europe and North Asia and Central Asia, China, Japan and Korea. It is also found in North America, from coast to coast across Canada and the northern United States to western Alaska. It occurs in the Rocky Mountains from Montana to southern Arizona and New Mexico. In the east, it ranges from Maine to North Carolina. It has recently been recorded from Tennessee.
The forewings of this species are reddish-brown with distinctive patterning towards the base; a black mark resembling the Hebrew letter nun (נ) with a pale cream-coloured area adjacent to this mark. The hindwings are cream-coloured.
Technical Description and variation[edit]
- See glossary for terms used
The wingspan is 35–45 mm.Forewing purplish grey or purplish fuscous with a leaden gloss; costal area at middle ochreous, merged with the bluntly triangular orbicular stigma: cell, a submedian basal blotch, and costal spot before apex purplish black; claviform stigma minute; reniform large, the lower lobe purplish; hindwing ochreous whitish, in female with the termen broadly fuscous.[1]
Two broods are produced each year and the adults are on the wing between May and October.[1] This moth flies at night and is attracted to light and sugar, as well as flowers such as Buddleia, ivy and ragwort.
The larva is pale brown red-brown or green with obscure paler dorsal and subdorsal lines and a broad pale ochreous spiracular line. It feeds on a huge variety of plants (see list below). The species overwinters as a larva.

Reviews: The Best Revenge
Good but not without flaws
Good: Very good prose in my opinion. Fleshing out of OC's, it's a fun read in general. Not overly dark...in fact, it's almost the opposite. Bad: Problems are resolved way too easily, there's very little lasting conflict in this story, it's a feel-good tale. Prepare for a LOT of Draco in Leather Pants of Snape.
Not the best story ever (the problems are fixed a bit too neatly), but does a good job of showing how Harry and Snape's relationship would be different if they had met under better circumstances.
ridiculously optimistic but worth it
Nearly every problem in the books is solved in one way or another, some characters are straddling the line between In Character and Out of Character, if not outright crossing it, and it's kind of ridiculous how almost every character gets a happy ending (one character technically gets TWO happy endings), but if you suspend your disbelief willingly, it's still a very nice read. Snape, one of the main characters, and so, the most noticeable in this aspect, is at times out of character -which is kind of necessary to make the premise of him bonding with Harry work-, but it's still very satisfying to see him defending and protecting Harry, along with other adults, and encouraging a better atmosphere in the school, after the messes that Fridge Horror points out actually went on in Hogwarts in canon. It's even vindicating, you could say. Both this fic and its sequel close the story very nicely, leaving you with a nice, warm, fuzzy feeling.

Management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been continuously evolving during recent years. HCC is a worldwide clinical and social issue and typically a complicates cirrhosis. The incidence of HCC is increasing, not only in the general population of patients with cirrhosis, but particularly in some subgroups of patients, like those with human immunodeficiency virus infection or thalassemia. Since a 3% annual HCC incidence has been estimated in cirrhosis, a bi-annual screening is generally suggested. The diagnostic criteria of HCC has recently had a dramatic evolution during recent years. HCC diagnosis is now made only on radiological criteria in the majority of the cases. In the context of cirrhosis, the universally accepted criteria for HCC diagnosis is contrast enhancement in arterial phase and washout in venous/late phase at imaging, the so called "typical pattern". However, recently updated guidelines slightly differ in diagnostic criteria. Apart from liver transplantation, the only cure of both HCC and underlying liver cirrhosis, all the other treatments have to match with higher rate of HCC recurrence. The latter can be classified into curative (resection and percutaneous ablation) and palliative treatments. The aim of this paper was to review the current knowledge on management of HCC and to enlighten the areas of uncertainty.
Core tip: Management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been continuously evolving during recent years. The aim of this paper was to review the current knowledge on management of HCC and to enlighten the areas of uncertainty.
Management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been continuously evolving during recent years. However, albeit overall similar, the main Societies of Hepatology differently defined their own guidelines. In fact, despite an evident agreement in the general lines of HCC management, some gray zones still persist[1-4]. The aim of this paper was to review the current knowledge on management of HCC and to enlighten the areas of uncertainty.
HCC is a worldwide clinical and social issue. Actually, it is the sixth most common cancer and the third cause of cancer-related death. Incidence increases with advancing age, with a median age at onset of about 70 year-old in developed countries and there is a male preponderance, with a male to female ratio of about 2.4[5,6].
HCC is typically a complication of cirrhosis, although it can rarely develop in the absence of cirrhosis[1-4]. Known underlying diseases at risk for HCC development are chronic viral hepatitis C and B, alcoholic hepatitis, non- alcoholic fatty liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, hemochromatosis, alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, Wilson's disease, Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Diagnostic algorithm follows the same radiological criteria for HCC (see above) despite the different aetiologies of underlying liver disease. However, an exception is HCC developing in BCS. In fact, the radiological pattern of regenerative nodules in BCS is similar to that of HCC[7]. Moreover, as a consequence of the hindered hepatic venous outflow, radiological criteria for HCC can be altered[8,9]. Finally, although the risk of procedure-related bleeding is probably increased[10], generally diagnosis of HCC in BCS still needs histological confirmation[8,9].
Overall, the incidence of HCC is increasing, not only in the general population of patients with cirrhosis[11,12], but particularly in some subgroups of patients, like those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or thalassemia. In fact, in both HIV and thalassemia, a recent significant outcome improvement due to, respectively, iron chelating drugs in the latter and highly active antiretroviral therapy in the former, has allowed the appearance of the complication of the underlying hepatic disease[13-18].
Surveillance of HCC is important simply because as little is HCC size at diagnosis as high is the probability of curative treatment. Since a 3% annual HCC incidence has been estimated in cirrhosis[19], a bi-annual screening is generally suggested[1-4]. Although less stringent, there is a risk of HCC development also in non-cirrhotic chronic hepatitis and treated viral hepatitis, for which an annual screening is generally performed[1-4]. Ultrasound (US) is the test of choice for surveillance. In fact, US is a cheap and safe test, due to the absence of contrast medium and radioactivity[20-23]. Moreover, differently from computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR), US does not expose to the risk of false positive results. However, CT or MR should be preferred for surveillance of patients for which US is not adequate because of technical reasons or in liver transplantation (LT) waiting list[1-4].
Once hepatic nodules are discovered at US screening, the further work-up depends on the size[1-4]. Nodules < 1 cm should prompt a strict US surveillance every 3 or 4 mo for the first year and, in the absence of size increase, every six months after one year, like patients with cirrhosis without liver nodules. In fact, hepatic nodules < 1 cm rarely are HCC. Moreover, for such little size nodules, diagnostic value of either CT and MR is inadequate.
Nodules between 1 and 2 cm in size should be studied with CT and MR and, in case of non diagnostic imaging, undergo nodule biopsy. Moreover, a second biopsy should be contemplated in case of inconclusive findings at histology, nodule growth or change in enhancement pattern.
Nodules > 2 cm should undergo CT and MR and, in case of atypical imaging findings, nodule biopsy[1-4].
The diagnostic criteria of HCC has recently had a dramatic evolution during recent years[1-4,24]. In fact, till the first half of the past decade, the Golden Standard for HCC diagnosis was histology. Then, since radiological diagnostic criteria have been shaped and established[1], HCC diagnosis is now made only on radiological criteria in the majority of the cases[1-4]. In the context of cirrhosis, the universally accepted criteria for HCC diagnosis is contrast enhancement in arterial phase and washout in venous/late phase at imaging, the so called "typical pattern" (Figures (Figures11--3).3). However, recently updated guidelines slightly differ in diagnostic criteria[2-4].
Hepatic lesions > 1 cm with typical pattern at one imaging (CT or MR) have diagnosis of HCC in both the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) 2011 and European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) 2012 guidelines[2,4]. However, EASL 2012 guidelines specify that for lesions between 1 and 2 cm the concordance of typical pattern at two imaging (CT and MR) should be advices in suboptimal settings (technology, local skills)[4]. Both AASLD 2011 and EASL 2012 guidelines suggest lesion biopsy in the absence of typical pattern. Finally, both AASLD 2011 and EASL 2012 guidelines exclude from diagnostic criteria contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) and alpha-fetoprotein value[2,4].
Japanese Society of Hepatology (JSH) 2012 guidelines agree with the diagnostic value of typical pattern at one imaging (CT, MR, CEUS) regardless of the size, and maintains the diagnostic value of CEUS and biochemistry (AFP > 200 ng/dL, PIVKA-II > 40, AFP L3 > 15%)[3]. However, the main difference between JSH 2012 and both AASLD 2011 and EASL 2012 guidelines is that the former consider a diagnostic criteria the lesion hypo-intensity in hepatic image of Gd-EOB-MR[2-4].
Apart from LT, the only cure of both HCC and underlying liver cirrhosis, all the other treatments have to match with higher rate of HCC recurrence. The latter can be classified into curative (resection and percutaneous ablation) and palliative treatments[2-4].
Resection is considered the First-Line treatment for patients with solitary tumours and preserved liver function (normal bilirubin and, either HVPG ≤ 10 mmHg, PLT > 100000 or no varices at endoscopy). Resection can also be performed for multi-focal HCC inside Milan criteria or in case of mild portal hypertension when patients are not suitable for orthotopic LT (OLT), although it is debated if such patients could benefit from other locoregional therapies, avoiding the risk of surgery and of liver de-compensation after surgery. In fact, perioperative mortality in cirrhotics after HCC resection is about 2%-3%. Moreover, there is a risk of tumor recurrence after surgery of about 70% at 5 years, enclosing both true recurrence and the novo tumours[25-39].
Percutaneous local ablation, namely radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and ethanol injection (EI) are the standard of care for BCLC O-A not suitable for surgery. Although RFA is recommended in most instances as the main ablative therapy in tumors less than 5 cm, the probability of complete necrosis is very high for little tumors (< 2 cm) and progressively decreases with the increase of tumor size. In tumours ≤ 2 cm both RF and EI achieve complete responses in more than 90%, making percutaneous local ablation competitive with resection. EI is better indicated when RFA in not technically feasible. This is the case of tumors overflowing the liver margin or near organs, just like gallbladder or bowel, because of the risk of thermal injury and perforation, or when tumor is adjacent to a main vessel, because of the concern of thermal dispersion and inefficacy of RFA[40-64].
Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the recommended treatment for BCLC stage B multinodular asymptomatic tumors without vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread. Drug-eluting beads have similar efficacy to gealfoam-lipiodol with probably less adverse events. Both should be discouraged in decompensated liver disease and in case of macroscopic vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread[65-80]. An alternative to TACE is radioembolization. However, radioembolization , although promising and with advantage of being indicated also in the case of portal vein neoplastic thrombosis, is expensive and further data are needed. In fact, to our knowledge there are not well designed studies comparing radioembolization with neither TACE nor sorafenib[81-84].
LT is actually a consolidated therapeutic option for HCC because it cures both tumor and underlying cirrhosis[1-4]. However, the indication of LT for HCC treatment has evolved over recent years[85-109]. Moreover, initial experiences tended to offer LT as the last therapeutic chance when resection was not feasible. In fact, till the first half of nineties, the discouraging results of some experiences had questioned the possibility of LT efficacy as HCC treatment. In 1996, the publication of a pivotal prospective study on less than 50 patients, transplanted for HCC under predefined criteria (single HCC ≤ 5 cm or 3 HCC ≤ 3 cm each), the so called "Milan criteria", showed a 4-year survival of 75%[85]. Subsequent experiences of LT for HCC inside the Milan criteria, confirmed a survival rate exceeding 70% at 5 years, with a recurrence in less than 15%. Due to these data, LT is now the first-line treatment for one HCC ≤ 5 cm or 3 HCC ≤ 3 cm each[1-4].
Although all published guidelines go on considering the Milan criteria as the only fence inside which LT should be considered as treatment of HCC[2-4], the possibility of an extension of Milan criteria as indication for LT is already a debated issue. In fact, while it is universally recognized that LT for HCC inside Milan criteria guaranties an acceptable outcome, numerous heterogeneous experiences explore the possibility of extending the Milan criteria.
A line of experiences studies the applicability of the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) criteria, that is single nodule ≤ 6.5 cm or 2-3 nodules ≤ 4.5 cm and total diameter ≤ 8 cm. In fact, UCSF criteria on explant identified retrospectively a cohort of patients whose survival was not significantly different from those of patient transplanted for HCC inside the Milan criteria[93]. The same results had other retrospective experiences by other groups using UCSF criteria. Moreover, a recent prospective study showed a 5-year survival not significantly different in patients transplanted for HCC inside Milan and UCSF criteria[103].
A recent multicenter restrospective study on over 1700 found that HCC inside the "up-to-seven" criteria at explant (those HCCs having the number 7 as the sum of the size of the larger tumor and the number of tumors) and without microvascular invasion had a 5-year survival not significantly different from those inside the Milan criteria, while survival was significantly worst in case of HCC inside the "up-to-seven" criteria and with microvascular invasion[104].
Another line of studies suggest that down-staging for HCC exceeding conventional criteria could be effective for extending LT without worsening survival. These studies are heterogeneous in design, inclusion criteria and philosophy. In fact, while some suggests to offer LT to those patients who achieve an effective downstaging, so selecting patients with a less aggressive HCC and likely reducing the probability of HCC recurrence after LT, others indicate LT for those HCC without an effective downstaging, as a rescue treatment[107-109].
Despite all the above studies, guidelines still give indication to LT only to HCC inside Milan criteria[2-4]. However, as published experiences show, many center actually perform LT outside the Milan criteria, using criteria different from centre to centre[85-109].
Whatever the criteria adopted, a significant problem of HCC candidates for LT is the drop out, that is patients who do not reach the goal of LT because of progression of HCC or of causes unrelated to HCC. Many studies have investigated the risk of drop out that remains difficult to define, although some factors, like tumor multinodularity, neoadjuvant treatment failures, elevated AFP or model for end-stage liver disease score, have been correlated with a higher probability of drop out. From an opposite point of view, given the organ shortage, some patients with single HCC < 2 cm may benefit from alternative treatments and avoid LT at least until recurrence occours, highlighting the possibility of salvage transplantation in low risk population. Moreover, it is still uncertain which is the role of LT after surgery and high risk of recurrence at pathology[2-4].
Living donor LT (LDLT) is an alternative option if waiting list is long and offers the possibility of a LT after a short time. However, there is a donor risk of death of about 0.3% and of life threatening complications of about 2%. In fact, LDLT should be restricted to centers of excellence[110-120].
The mainstay of palliative therapy for advanced HCC is Sorafenib, which is indicated in advanced HCC (BCLC C) or HCC progressing upon loco-regional therapies in patients with well preserved liver function and good performance status. Registrative studies have shown a 3-mo increase in median overall survival of sorafenib compared to placebo. Moreover, adverse events are frequent a can be severe (Diarrea, Hand-foot skin-reaction)[121-125].
The role of Sorafenib in some subgroup of patients is debated. In fact, while some experiences report encouraging results of sorafenib therapy after HCC recurrence post OLT, others suggests that adverse events could affect sorafenib efficacy[126-135]. Moreover, our preliminary experience on HCC in HIV positive patient report a high incidence of hepatotoxicity. In both the subgroup the possibility of drug interections should be investigated.

Texas wine developments: 2015
Some thoughts after driving some 900 miles through the Texas High Plains in search of Texas wine:
• It's not so much that this year's harvest was plentiful, or that quality looks to be good. Rather, it's that growers who normally had a couple of tons of grapes to sell have six or eight. Or 10. That means wineries may have more grapes than they know what to do with — something that could only happen in Texas, where short harvests have been the norm for a decade. Hence, there may not be anywhere to store the extra crushed grapes, and I don't even want to think about what it will do to grape prices over the next couple of years. The good news? That there will be almost no excuse to sell Texas wine that doesn't carry a Texas appellation, a practice long common here and which has generated huge controversy.
• Even I get tired of ragging on Dallas restaurants that don't carry Texas wine, but after eating in three Lubbock restaurants that do Texas wine justice — the Pecan Grill at the Overton Hotel, La Diosa, and West Table — Dallas restaurants have no excuse for not carrying Texas wine. If they can do it in Lubbock, why can't we do it here? We are supposed to be more cosmopolitan than Lubbock, aren't we?
• Neal Newsom, a west Texas cotton farmer who planted his first grapes 30 years ago and today grows only grapes, says his fellow cotton farmers used to heckle him — literally — over that decision. Because what kind of self-respecting cotton farmer would grow something as silly as grapes in a part of the country where cotton is king? Today, though, says Newsom, they're practically jealous, given his success. "I got more people asking me about growing grapes last year than I did in the previous 29 years put together," he says.
• The less said about my experiences in Post, about 50 miles southwest of Lubbock, the better. Who knew driving through a small town, no bigger than five minutes from north to south, could cause so much aggravation, and both times I went through it?
• The best wines I tasted? A tempranillo from Llano Estacado (which I'll use in my American Wine Society seminar about Texas wine in November) and the McPherson rose. The former had varietal character — some earthiness, a bit of orange peel — but tasted of Texas, with more red fruit than a Rioja and more balanced acidity. It's about $15 for people lucky enough to have an HEB in their town. The rose, about $10, is sold out in much of the state, but a couple of restaurants in Lubbock still had it. That it sold out so quickly speaks to how well it's made — juicy strawberry fruit and a crispness that makes me smile when I write about it — as well as how much Texas wine drinkers have changed. Just a couple of years ago, to paraphrase my pal John Bratcher, you couldn't sell rose here if you left it outside the liquor store with a sign that said free for the taking.

The Spain back-up keeper, 30, did not play in the 1-1 draw with France but "felt a slight twinge at half-time" according to Reds boss Brendan Rodgers, and will undergo a fitness test on Friday to see if he can line up against the Royals.
"We'll wait another 24 hours to see how he is," Rodgers said. "It's nothing overly serious - he felt just a slight twinge in his hamstring at half-time in the game.
"We had the checks on him and he had a scan this morning. It's not overly-serious, but we just need to weigh up the risk in the next 24-48 hours.
"I think Spain picked up a few injuries. By all accounts the pitch wasn't the best and a number of them picked up muscle injuries."
Rodgers confirmed that, if Reina has not fully recovered, Australian Brad Jones will start in his place.
"It's good for us that if he can't play, we've got Brad Jones, who has made fantastic improvement since the beginning of the season and shows up every day of his life very well here," Rodgers added.
"So if Pepe can't play, we've got an able understudy who can come in and do very well, I'm sure."
Rodgers said that he had no other major worries following the international break, although Uruguay duo Luis Suarez and Sebastian Coates are yet to return from Bolivia and will return later on Thursday.
Suso, meanwhile, will sign a new improved deal at the weekend.
The Spain U19 international forward, who is just 18, is expected to be a first-team regular following the foot injury that ruled Fabio Borini out for three months.
"I have been really impressed. He is a good boy and very keen to learn," Rodgers added. "He is a wonderful technician, he's very bright and a thinking player - which I like."

I know daphne is the hot one, but Velma is actually pretty bodacious under that baggy sweater...
super wonderful! even when i was tiny, velma was my favorite, as i really saw myself in her more than daphne.
thanks for making great art!
Did Scooby put his collar on you
very nice work !!!
I'm not even going to ask why she's wearing Scooby's collar, lol!
She's got a fine body. She's also really cute for maintaining that tomboy look.
Why is she wearing Scooby's collar?
deliciously sexy.
Jinkies, just as I expected. Her jumper is far more figure hugging in What's New Scooby Doo.
Sexy geek girls are sexy.
Sigh... I always preferred Velma.
I love it! Great artwork!
What the... is she wearing Scooby's collar?
Wrong: Velma was, is and will always the hot one. Nerds are sexy!
Oh my....
Damn you made Velma look amazing here. You always knew she was sneaky hot...
Oh wow this is so awesome Oh how I love Velma
