GPS units get smaller and smaller, and here's an example—the Acer e310, a 4-inch-tall GPS device that runs on Microsoft Windows CE. About the size of an iPod, its 2.8-inch 320x240 touchscreen just about fills up the front of the thing, and in addition to its GPS navigation duties it also functions as an MP3 player, photo viewer and address book.
Too bad there's no flash memory slot (see correction below). It's said to deliver four hours of navigation time or eight hours of other uses such as playing music. Now if these GPS functions could be incorporated into every cellphone, our interest would be piqued. No release date or pricing was set.
Update: Thanks, Martin, for translating the company's German site, and letting us know the Acer e310 does have an SD/MMC memory slot!

For the 13th year, the Black Bear Film Festival has given film enthusiasts a place to see some unique films that they might not otherwise get to see. The three-day event offers full-length films, film shorts, presentations and a gala dinner to kick off the weekend.
For the 13th year, the Black Bear Film Festival has given film enthusiasts a place to see some unique films that they might not otherwise get to see. The three-day event offers full-length films, film shorts, presentations and a gala dinner to kick off the weekend.
"It's basically many events. Friday is the gala. It's not to be missed. It will be a nice group of community people at St. Patrick's Event Venue in Milford," said Jerry Beaver, founding president of the festival. "The opening night film is 'Should've Been Romeo.' It's the perfect opening night movie."
Saturday morning kicks off with the film "Eleanor's Secret." It's an animated movie for the whole family.
"Milford is in the process of watching the library being built, and the opening movie is all about the love of books. It's important for the area to celebrate the fact the new library is being built," Beaver said. "It's a children's film; a brilliant animation about a brother and sister and what happens when Aunt Eleanor dies. They find a key for a secret room filled with books."
Saturday offers film lovers seven movies: "Eleanor's Secret," "Beasts of the Southern Wild," "Queen of Versailles," "Hello I Must Be Going," "Everything or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007," "Starbuck Centerfold Film" and "Neil Young Journeys."
"Each movie is an event unto itself, and each is special," Beaver said. "They were hand-selected from 300 independent movies. I've screened almost 300 movies in New York City. I think of the joy of bringing the movies up here to people who many have never seen them. We are bringing a piece of the culture from New York City to Milford."
Sunday offers six movies: "The Thief of Bagdad," "Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel," "L'Enfant d'en Haut (Sister)," "Searching for Sugar Man," "Your Sister's Sister" and "Meet the Fokkens."
Sunday also brings the close of the silent auction that begins tonight.
"We have a big festival tent in front of the theater. Our silent auction offerings are fantastic. I entice everyone to stop by and take a look. There are 75 to 80 donated things," Beaver said. "We also have an area in the tent with catered food concession stands."
Throughout the weekend, the free film salon will also offer movies to anyone interested. The film salon is being held at St. Patrick's Event Venue, just a block away from the theater.
"It's what I call the sidebar film salon," said Beaver. "It's free to the public and begins at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday until 6 p.m. and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. The idea is for people to flow back and forth from the film salon to the theater. Last year, the film salon was packed."
The film salon offers short films, presentations and student films.
"We have about a dozen short films that are five to 10 minutes in length and some longer feature length films such as documentaries," said Justin Riddle, co-director of the film salon. "There will be four main movies and two to three presentations by a film professor and a film historian."
The films shown at the film salon are typically made by locals or focus on issues important to locals.
"We went through hours and hours of movies to choose them. I was interested in things in the local area," Riddle said. "Environmental issues and sustainability issues seem to be the flavor of the salon."
A young amateur filmmakers' forum will also take place in the film salon. It will highlight short films from local high school students.
"It was great last year," Riddle said. "We want to do this because it's a great thing to do. I'm a big believer in creating a thriving film community. That's the idea of the salon."
And, of course, let's not forget about the dressed bears around Milford. They will be present at the theater for all to see.
"There are 11 bears on the streets. We gave out bear maps with descriptions, artist, and rationale behind each bear," Beaver said. "Starting Friday night, the bears will be at the theater."

They never lost a single penny from the foreclosures but made billions of profits. Course whatever they ask for they will pay a price to get it…except not to you.
Banks helped create the housing crisis, and now they're seeking a new way to profit from it. As Bloomberg reported Monday, several financial and investment companies have submitted proposals to the federal government, suggesting ways that they can help manage a program to rent out 180,000 foreclosed homes.
Fair and affordable housing advocates are calling on the Obama administration to reject help from the financial sector, or at least limit its influence.
"It's really a question of whether the banks that made so much money creating this crisis are going to profit again," Jeremy Rosen, policy director at the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty, told The Huffington Post.

Saw Iron Man 2 today....great movie. It did not have the Cloverfield trailer though...possibly because we saw it in IMAX.
I can´t bend Tlc Fett arms tomake him grab the rifle with both hands, if someone has photos how to do it I would truly thanks.
Public libraries won't work because you wont be able to download and install the coupon/printer software. These coupon are proprietary to that site and aren't available elsewhere.
In the end, I ended up with about 40 of these coupons from all the stations (Mac) that I have access to at work and home.
Actually the each coupon is different. Look at the barcode underneath the Expiration date - each coupon has a different 4 digit number so you are good to go.
Someone on RS posted a link to a $5.00 off of $20.00 Hasbro Star Wars purchase.
It's a few pages in, but it's there:
I got mine at TRU and it wasn't in their computer system. It was also, oddly, the only battlepack on the shelves that I noticed.
No need to cross your fingers. They're about as reliable as you can get.
If it lasts for a few more days, I'll buy some.

Saudi Women Arrested for Defying Driving Ban - Lama Hasan, ABC News
June 29, 2011
Five Saudi women who dared to break the driving ban by getting behind the wheel were arrested for a few hours and then released by the Kingdom's muttawas, or religious police, in the Red Sea coast city of Jeddah.
To gain their release, the women, along with their legal male guardians, had to sign a pledge declaring they would not drive again.
In what is being described as "dramatic" night time raids, police detained one of the women as she was driving in the city. She was reportedly surrounded by four police cars and taken into custody.
According to a conservative Saudi news website, her car was also confiscated. The other four were first accused of defying the ban and then arrested.
Galvanized by the recent revolutions in the Arab world, the organization Saudi Women for Driving, a coalition of leading Saudi women's rights activists, released a statement that read,
"The Saudi police decided to wait a few weeks before cracking down in the hope that international attention on the ban on women driving would subside."
The law in the Kingdom does not actually prohibit women from driving but there are fatwas, or religious edicts, which follow Wahabism, a strict form of Islam that follows the Koran literally and has been in place for centuries. It is the muttawas who police the streets and enforce those edicts in the country.
It is the first time the muttawas cracked down on women drivers since women's rights campaigner and single mother Manal Al Sharif was arrested for driving in May this year and remained behind bars for nice days. Al Sharif is one of five organizers who set up the facebook group "Women2Drive" page, launched a nationwide campaign calling on all women across the country to drive on June 17. Dozens of women across the country hit the streets, some documenting their audacious act and posting their videos on YouTube.
The Saudi women have been tirelessly trying to reverse these laws to enable women to drive so that they can have more freedom and no longer have to rely on their male guardians to commute.
Eman Al Nafjan, a Saudi women's rights blogger and college teacher, is one of them. She spoke of her frustration, telling ABC News, "Do you know how difficult it is for me? I am 32 years old, a mother of three, teaching college students, and I am trusted to teach but not trusted behind the wheel just because I don't have the right genitals?''
Al Nafjan is working on getting the voices of other women heard and finding a platform for their organization (http://www.change.org). She told ABC News that the ''local media deny we exist.''
Will these recent arrests deter women from driving and force them to drop their quest?
Not according to the Saudi Women for Driving campaign, who have defiantly said the women will continue their efforts to pave the way for female drivers and lifting the ban in the Kingdom: "If Saudi police think arresting women drivers is going to stop what has already become the largest women's rights movement in Saudi history, they are sorely mistaken. On the contrary, these arrests will encourage more women to get behind the wheel in direct defiance of this ridiculous abuse of our most basic human rights."

Second year architecture students are stepping into the past with the help of Kennedy Library's Special Collections. The upcoming exhibit, Atelier Morgan, features an inspiring collection of Julia Morgan's sketches and drawings. As part of the exhibit, every second year architecture student at Cal Poly participated in the Julia Morgan Symposium, where they had a chance to look through the Morgan Papers to draw inspiration.
Architecture instructors rarely choose the same projects for their students, so this is an opportunity for the students to work on the same subject and explore Cal Poly's Special Collections, architecture professor Robert Arens said.
"Students will take this opportunity to see the Special Collections and also see this great exhibit," Arens said. The exhibit opens at Kennedy Library on November 9, 2012.
Faculty selected one of three Morgan projects to focus on for the quarter, having students design structures or create drawings that are inspired by, but not necessarily derivative of, Morgan's iconic work.
"Everyone's taking kind of a different approach to it," Arens said. He described the challenge for students: "How do you fit into an existing context and kind of a revered one? How do you respond to that without imitation?"
And the students' experience with these revered works has inspired them too.
For architecture student Karin Bjorkman, who is working on a sketch inspired by Morgan's work at Hearst Castle, access to the Morgan Papers is a special privilege, she said. "It was really touching that they brought it down to us," Bjorkman said.
For architecture student Eli Beckman, that privilege is also an incredible way to study something first-hand. "It's a great sort of primary source as to what Julia Morgan's work looked like," Beckman said.
The Atelier Morgan exhibit is November 9, 2012 – January 11, 2013, with an opening on November 9 from 3-4pm in the second floor Gallery at the Commons. The opening is followed by The College of Architecture and Environmental Design's 2012 Hearst Lecture Series featuring Victoria Kastner, historian for Hearst Castle and author of two books: "Hearst Castle: The Biography of a Country House" and "Hearst's San Simeon: The Gardens and the Land." The lecture will be from 4-5pm in the Business Rotunda at Cal Poly.
The architecture students' Morgan-inspired projects will go on display in the Gallery at the Commons on the second floor of Kennedy Library, January 14 – February 1, 2013.
UPDATE: See photos from the exhibit opening on our Flickr.

So, I mentioned that my oldest daughter starts Kindergarten in a couple of weeks. (!)
As soon as we got her class assignment, she was anxious to write her teacher a note, and make her a gift.
I had pinned this idea from Think Crafts - and it seemed like the perfect gift for a Kindergarten teacher.
I used the foam tubing from the plumbing department of the hardware store to make a wreath form - just like I did for this Christmas wreath here...works like a charm. Just cut the tubing down to the size you want, and tape the ends together with packing tape. Nice and inexpensive.
Then, we wrapped and hot glued school themed fabric around the foam tubing:
Finally, we hot glued school supplies around the outside, with the word "Welcome!" cut out of cardstock, and the teacher's name and grade handwritten on the little notebook. A bit of ribbon is tied around the top to hang it. I plan to give the teacher a 3M hook to make hanging the wreath anywhere easier.
I think it turned out really cute - and hopefully it will make a nice addition to the Kindergarten classroom that everyone can enjoy!

Jolene Klassen's Autumn Circle Quilt is filled with gorgeous color and playful use of print fabrics. It's also a wonderful interpretation of the classic Wagon Wheel block.
Jolene blogs at Blue Elephant Stitches. Her post about making this quilt can be found here. We also asked her a couple of questions.
MQG: What do you think makes your quilt modern?
Jolene: I don't know that I would technically call this quilt modern. But I think the one modern element in all my quilts, including this one, is my way of approaching the so called "rules" of quilting. I believe that the rules are to be respected, but not necessarily followed! There is no 'wrong' way to make a quilt, whether it's construction or design. The sky is the limit, and I always want to keep my mind open to new concepts and ideas, while still making things that I love!
MQG: What is your all-time favorite block pattern?
Jolene: To answer this question I looked through all my previous quilts, as well as my favourite quilts on Flickr and Pinterest. I came up with squares! As in plain patchwork squares, nine patches, trip around the world, and more.

A majority of African-Americans working in the philanthropic sector do not believe they have real opportunities for meaningful leadership roles within the sector, according to a new report from the Association of Black Foundation Executives.
The report found that in 2012 only 3% of chief executives and 7% of trustees at philanthropic organizations in the U.S. were African-American, while the percentage of African-American professional staff and program officers had declined slightly from 10% and 17% in 2010 to 9% and 16% in 2012.
Seventy-two percent of study participants believed that African Americans were making some progress as staff at grantmaking institutions, but that leadership roles were not substantial.
The study was based on interviews and focus groups with current and former African-American foundation staff and executives conducted in partnership with the Black Philanthropic Network, and on a survey developed by LM Strategies Consulting.
Asked why African-American philanthropic professionals left grantmaking work, 41% of respondents said their role within the institutions did not allow them to work directly with communities, 65% said they had found professional growth opportunities elsewhere, and 22% said they had been pushed out.
The study also identified challenges to the retention of African-American foundation professionals. Forty-four percent of respondents cited a sense of isolation owing to politics, lack of a diverse staff and/or a glass ceiling at the middle management level.
Forty-five percent pointed to an overly bureaucratic organizational culture and limited professional-track training, pipeline networks and support systems.
And program officers especially felt that their expertise was not valued or trusted by colleagues.
The report made several recommendations.
It said executive leadership teams at foundations should do more to identify and implement solutions to high turnover and attrition among African-American professionals in philanthropy. They should also do more to collect and analyze employment data for African-Americans in the sector.
The report said foundations should provide mentoring to develop the leadership capacity of African-American staffers.
Finally, regional associations of grant makers should do more to support the retention of African-American professionals in the sector.
"Retention strategies are much more about changing the culture of philanthropy as well as providing diverse leaders with the 'armor' and protective factors they need to survive in foundation environments, particularly if they are leaders on issues of racial and social justice," ABFE president Susan Taylor Batten said in a statement.

We often hear people complain about "too much recoil for semi-auto weapons", so let me summarize our recoil philosophy.
1. We always prioritize PvP gameplay because AI won't complain of balancing
2. We assumed that having no scopes, combats are happening at shorter range than modern ones, 250 to 0 instead of over 500.
3. Under 100m, with former values, it was possible to empty one semi-auto weapon (garand-m1-g43) in a 20*20cm square within 2 seconds. This give absolutely no chance to any bolt action rifle within those ranges, and they don't have "more chance" at long ranges because whether you don't see well whether the ammunition are as lethal as semi auto guns which have a reduced rate of fire when distance increases. In extenso, it generally meant "the first to see is the one who survive" because spamming your gun like a retard was 95% kill success under 100 meters.
5. Therefore we had to reduce rate of fire and accuracy of semi auto, without changing bullet dispertion (like any arcade game would do), so we changed the recoil.
6. No matter what you think, recoil is reallistic, one will tell you "I am american I shot the garand it doesnt move". Yeah, we agree with you, it doesnt move that much, but :
- back then men were 1,70 meters average, 60 kilograms, not 1.m85 90kg.
- they shot old ammunitions which powder had not the same properties.
- they were scared, exhausted and shot to kill, you fired on a firing range with absolutely no stress.
7. Therefore, if you want to be accurate and steady, lean or use the world to rest your weapon, take the time to aim it back when you shoot. Otherwise, do like any soldier with a semi auto : supress in the general direction, knowing you'll probably won't hit anything.
Playing tactical PvP once a week (here, without zoom), I have returns from a decent player base : kar98 are still unadvantaged at short range, but they have a better survivabilty and have time to make escape moves, which was the goal of the tweaking, so for now it will likely remain like this. But feel free to make a recoil less patch and share it to steam workshop

Taylor Swift really did have a haircut party!
And it turns out that the likes of Harry Styles, Cara Delevingne and Ellie Goulding were gathered round backstage in London to watch Swift get her long locks chopped off.
Now, she's not exactly in pixie territory, but we'll call that a curly shoulder-length bob.
Entertainment News
"London, I could never thank you enough. See you next time! P.S. short hair, don't care. (!!!)," Swift wrote on Facebook alongside the reveal pic, a photo of a Polaroid in which the country-pop superstar is giving Goulding a squeeze.
PHOTOS: Celebs who've gone full pixie
Well, she obviously cares a little bit.
The 24-year-old Red artist apparently wasn't too attached to the hair-whipping move she busted out at the Grammys while performing "All Too Well."
We'll try to get the deets on who did the honors for Taylor ASAP.
But in the meantime, her short little curly 'do couldn't help but remind us of another famous hairstyle--and sure enough, Swift tweeted earlier today, "Sitting backstage at the O2 in London, thinking about what an impressive and extraordinary life Shirley Temple led. Thanks for the memories."
Did Swift's inspiration come straight from the Good Ship Lollopop?! Either way, the results are adorable.

The phrase "The Circle of Life", for individuals of my age demographic, typically conjures up images of Timon and Pumba. Hopefully I did not pull you into this blog under false pretenses but unfortunately the title is the only relation to the famous Disney movie. My hope is that you will continue reading in order to find out what "The Circle of Life" has to do with microfinance and Kiva.
First off, let me introduce you to the place, which is not Africa. For this circle of life I will be showing you around the workings of my MFI placement in Manila, Philippines. My MFI placement is called Center for Community Transformation (CCT). I have been working with CCT for just a week and already had a whirlwind introduction to what was microcredit services at birth and has transformed into a diverse body of services to enhance the lives of their "partners" in Metro Manila and to the greater body of the Philippines.
Prior to starting my Kiva fellow duties associated with their microfinance activities, the staff at CCT wanted to introduce me to the breadth of services they offer so I can understand how my participation in their microcredit services is contributing to a much bigger picture. I am going to bring you along on the ride, so you can get a glimpse of this bigger picture as well.
- Microfinance services- My first two days here I got to travel to several field offices of CCT, in order to see individual lenders and community lending meetings. One of these areas is just outside of Manila and it is called Payatas. This place is home to Manila's infamous trash mountain called "The Smokey Mountain" (please see links on bottom for more information). Here many of the entrepeneurs own junk shops to clean and re-sell the items that have been scavenged from the nearby infamous "Smokey Mountain".
- Health services- In this same field office I was introduced to just a portion of the services offered by CCT in their field offices. Here the CCT staff look for individuals that show leadership and consistency in participation in order to recruit them to be health partners for individuals undergoing Tuberculosis treatment in their area. The reason this is important is because the treatment for TB is a daily, six month long treatment that requires much support to complete correctly. If left to themselves, TB patients will often not complete the treatment without support.
- Feedings for Kaibigans (Tagalog for friends) aka Street dwellers- Manila is home to a large community of street dwellers. CCT has developed a transitional program to help individuals, who desire to do so, get off of the streets and find housing, mentorship, job training and school services for their children.
- Trade/job training- for the Kaibigans in areas of trade that include construction, janitorial work, sewing and agriculture (rice farming).
- School services and job skills for Kaibigan children- CCT has constructed several schools (by Kaibigan construction workers) to provide boarding and school services to students of all ages. In addition to this, they provide trade and job skill training to the teenage students.
- Agricultural services- for those Kaibigans who choose this areas of speciality they get to move out of Manila to help manage the rice fields and agricultural areas that are a part of the CCT portfolio . Not only do they earn a wage and food for their home/community, the food goes to supply the on-going Kaibigan feeding program from which these individuals came.
- Jobs- CCT provides jobs to the Kaibigans that go through their training programs as well as increased leadership opportunities for the entrepeneurs that show potential in these areas. The janitorial staff work at all of the CCT field offices (spanning the Philippines), the construction workers help build the buildings going up for CCT's growing programs and the agricultural workers get to help raise the crops for the feeding program.
- Support and create community water programs- CCT finds local spiritual communities to become partners in supply affordable and safe drinking waters to low income areas. Through the water program, CCT is able to offer more jobs to Kaibigan to run the water purification process and packaging. CCT also works with local microentrepeneurs so that they can sell the safe water products.
The aforementioned items are a part of the whirlwind orientation I received over the last four days. I hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I did. These programs grew out of what was initially just microcredit services. It became a circle where borrowers become health partners and community leaders and former street dwellers find homes, get jobs, supply their products and skills to enhance CCT's day to day functions. A CCT field staff and I were talking over my time in orientation and she kept emphasizing to me this element of spiritual transformation, long term growth/vision and sustainability. Together we joked about this "circle of life" that CCT is trying to provide. At the end of four days, it is not so much a joke but a serious and inspiring vision to me.'

The history of the word derby is intertwined with the history of the horse races that are held annually. In America, we tend to think of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs when we hear the word derby, but the original derby is an annual horse race run at Epsom Downs near London, England. The first of these races took place in the year 1780 and got its name from the race's founder, Edward Stanley, the 12th Earl of Derby. (Stanley's title comes from the name of an English county and town.) Later, people started using the word derby for important horse races in other countries, and then for any race or contest open to all comers or to a specified category of contestants—for example, a fishing derby or a bicycle derby.
The sense of derby meaning "a stiff felt hat with a dome-shaped top and a narrow brim" is first recorded in the late 19th century. Apparently, this type of hat was first made in the 1860s by a London hatter named Bowler; thus, it is called a bowler hat in England and in the United States either derby or simply bowler. No one knows just how this hat came to be called a derby, but it probably started when men began to wear such hats on sporting occasions, as when going to the races.
Americans pronounce the first syllable of derby so that it rhymes with fur, but the British pronounce it so that it rhymes with far.

GAMBIER, Ohio – Jordan Fowler delivered a career day though the air, and the Gators' special teams and defensive units manufactured several big plays as Allegheny raced to a 31-17 victory at Kenyon on Saturday. The Gators moved in front, 24-3, one minute into the fourth quarter and never looked back en route to the NCAC road win.
Ahead 10-3 late in the second quarter, Fowler pieced together a near-perfect two-minute drill to give the Gators (3-3, 1-1 NCAC) a comfortable advantage heading into the break. Fowler, who finished the day with a career-high 271 yards, was 8-of-10 on the drive while targeting five different receivers. On second down and with 25 seconds left in the frame, Fowler hooked up with Matt Griffith for a 16-yard score to extend the lead to two touchdowns.
Special teams and defense fueled the Gators' last two scores. After a quiet offensive third quarter for both teams, sophomore Zach Hill re-energized the visiting sideline with a blocked punt deep in Kenyon (0-5, 0-2) territory on the last play of the period. Rookie Raysean Glenn scooped up the ball at the 12-yard line and returned it 10 yards to the Kenyon two. The play marked the first blocked punt by an Allegheny player since Sept. 30, 2006. Two plays and a penalty later, Fowler connected with Griffith in the end zone for the second time as Allegheny's advantage swelled to a game-high 21 points.
Although Kenyon sliced into the lead with a 13-play, 90-yard touchdown drive midway through the quarter, junior defensive back Colin Hartford solidified the victory with a 32-yard touchdown return for touchdown with just over three minutes left in regulation. The spectacular individual effort resulted in Hartford's second pick-six of the season.
Fowler set career highs for completions and attempts (25-of-39) while leading the Gators to their sixth win in a row versus Kenyon and their 19th win in the last 20 meetings of the series. Brian Tamburlin, who caught nine balls for 66 yards, was the team's top target and finished with the most catches in a single game since Jake Vite hauled in 11 passes on Oct. 24, 2009. Tamburlin also rushed for a team-high 53 yards and a touchdown to finish with 119 all-purpose yards. Griffith added six catches for 84 yards, including the pair of scores, while Sean Griffin had five receptions covering 80 yards.
Defensively the Gators were paced by Brad Burkley, who made eight tackles, including a career-high six solo stops. Trevor Colvin and Doug Williams each closed with seven tackles, while Drew Perry picked off Kenyon starter Dan Shannon midway through the third.
Allegheny scored the first 10 points of the game after orchestrating two strong drives early. Tamburlin rushed four straight times in delivering the opening touchdown, and senior placekicker Ryan Zipf added a 42-yard field goal on the third play of the second quarter.

Drug information provided by: IBM Micromedex
Doxorubicin injection is used together with other medicines to treat cancer of the blood, lymph system, bladder, breast, stomach, lungs, ovaries, thyroid, nerves, kidneys, bones, and soft tissues, including muscles and tendons. It may also be used to treat other kinds of cancer, as determined by your doctor.
Doxorubicin belongs to the group of medicines known as antineoplastics. It seems to interfere with the growth of cancer cells, which are then eventually destroyed by the body. Since the growth of normal body cells may also be affected by doxorubicin, other effects will also occur. Some of these may be serious and must be reported to your doctor. Other effects, like hair loss, may not be serious but may cause concern. Some effects may not occur until months or years after the medicine is used.
Before you begin treatment with doxorubicin, you and your doctor should talk about the benefits this medicine will do as well as the risks of using it.
This medicine is to be given only by or under the direct supervision of your doctor.
This product is available in the following dosage forms:
In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:
Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to this medicine or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.
Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated pediatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of doxorubicin injection in children. However, heart problems are more likely to occur in children younger than 2 years of age, who are usually more sensitive to the effects of doxorubicin injection.
Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of doxorubicin injection in the elderly.
Studies in women breastfeeding have demonstrated harmful infant effects. An alternative to this medication should be prescribed or you should stop breastfeeding while using this medicine.
Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. When you are receiving this medicine, it is especially important that your healthcare professional know if you are taking any of the medicines listed below. The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines is not recommended. Your doctor may decide not to treat you with this medication or change some of the other medicines you take.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines is usually not recommended, but may be required in some cases. If both medicines are prescribed together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use one or both of the medicines.
Using this medicine with any of the following medicines may cause an increased risk of certain side effects, but using both drugs may be the best treatment for you. If both medicines are prescribed together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use one or both of the medicines.
Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
Using this medicine with any of the following is usually not recommended, but may be unavoidable in some cases. If used together, your doctor may change the dose or how often you use this medicine, or give you special instructions about the use of food, alcohol, or tobacco.
The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of this medicine. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:
A nurse or other trained health professional will give you this medicine in a hospital or cancer treatment center. This medicine is given through a needle placed in one of your veins.
The medicine is usually given once every 21 to 28 days. You may also receive other medicines to help prevent nausea and vomiting.
Doxorubicin is sometimes given together with certain other medicines. If you are receiving a combination of medicines, it is important that you receive each one at the proper time. If you are taking some of these medicines by mouth, ask your doctor to help you plan a way to take them at the right times.
While you are using this medicine, your doctor may want you to drink extra fluids so that you will pass more urine. This will help prevent kidney problems and keep your kidneys working well.
This medicine should come with a patient information leaflet. It is very important that you read and understand this information. Be sure to ask your doctor about anything you do not understand.
This medicine needs to be given on a fixed schedule. If you miss a dose or forget to use your medicine, call your doctor or pharmacist for instructions.
It is very important that your doctor check your progress at regular visits to make sure that this medicine is working properly. Blood tests may be needed to check for unwanted effects.
Using this medicine while you are pregnant can harm your unborn baby. Use an effective form of birth control to keep you or your partner from getting pregnant during therapy and for 6 months after the last dose of this medicine. If you think you have become pregnant while using the medicine, tell your doctor right away.
This medicine may cause irreversible heart muscle damage, leading to heart failure. This is more likely to occur if you have other heart problems, have had or currently receiving radiation therapy to your chest, or have received other cancer medicines. Tell your doctor right away if you have chest pain, decreased urine output, irregular heartbeat, trouble breathing, rapid weight gain, or swelling of your hands, ankles, or feet.
This medicine may increase risk of new cancers, such as acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Talk to your doctor if you have concerns about this risk.
If doxorubicin accidentally seeps out of the vein into which it is injected, it may damage some tissues and cause scarring. Tell the doctor or nurse right away if you notice redness, pain, or swelling at the place of injection.
While you are being treated with doxorubicin, and after you stop treatment with it, do not have any immunizations (vaccinations) without your doctor's approval. Doxorubicin may lower your body's resistance, and there is a chance you might get the infection the immunization is meant to prevent. In addition, other persons living in your household should not take oral polio vaccine, since there is a chance they could pass the polio virus on to you. Also, avoid persons who have taken oral polio vaccine within the last several months. Do not get close to them, and do not stay in the same room with them for very long. If you cannot take these precautions, you should consider wearing a protective face mask that covers the nose and mouth.
Doxorubicin can temporarily lower the number of white blood cells in your blood, increasing the chance of getting an infection. It can also lower the number of platelets, which are necessary for proper blood clotting. If this occurs, there are certain precautions you can take, especially when your blood count is low, to reduce the risk of infection or bleeding:
This medicine may cause a serious type of reaction called tumor lysis syndrome. Your doctor may give you a medicine to help prevent this. Call your doctor right away if you have a decrease or change in urine amount, joint pain, stiffness, or swelling, lower back, side, or stomach pain, a rapid weight gain, swelling of the feet or lower legs, or unusual tiredness or weakness.
This medicine may decrease the amount of sperm made and affect a man's ability to father a child. It may also cause premature menopause in women. Talk with your doctor before you use this medicine if you plan to have children.
Doxorubicin causes your urine to turn reddish in color, which may stain clothes. This is not blood. It is to be expected and only lasts for 1 or 2 days after each dose is given.
Do not take other medicines unless they have been discussed with your doctor. This includes prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicines and herbal (eg, St. John's wort) or vitamin supplements.
Along with its needed effects, a medicine may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention.
Check with your doctor or nurse immediately if any of the following side effects occur:
Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
After you stop using this medicine, it may still produce some side effects that need attention. During this period of time, check with your doctor immediately if you notice the following side effects:
Other side effects not listed may also occur in some patients. If you notice any other effects, check with your healthcare professional.
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

A business colleague came back from Indianapolis last week and told me about some of the dizzying price tags he saw while strolling around Super Bowl Village.
A ticket to a luncheon with members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, he said, was going for $975. A ticket to the game five hours before kick-off was fetching $2,000. If you wanted a VIP pass to Volkswagen's Rock & Roll Fan Tailgate Party, call your banker: $10,000. For a luxury suite in Lucas Oil Stadium, where the game was played, most Americans would have had to sell their homes to come up with the $240,000.
Despite these staggering numbers, you didn't need to be wealthy to have fun last weekend. Fans had their first opportunity to attend Media Day, a great chance to see and hear players and coaches from the Giants and Patriots talk about the game. Tickets for this were just $25. Tickets for the Jimmy Fallon Show on Sunday night after the game: free. A seat for celebrity flag football: free.
No, you didn't need to be wealthy. You simply needed to plan ahead. Those cheap and free tickets were scooped up almost immediately after becoming available.
I bring this up because once again life shows us another example of the difference planning can mean to the bottom line. Those who don't think through the possibilities ahead of time can end up paying the price.
Just look at the potential for corn this year. With the stocks-to-use ratio being tight, a continuing debt crisis in Europe, rising tensions with Iran, and the ever-present weather wild card, corn in 2012 is shaping up as classic example of the need for pre-planning. We are seeing price projections from $3.50/bushel to over $10.00/bushel. This range easily translates into more than enough to purchase a Super Bowl luxury suite. Are you ready for whatever the market may do?
As always, I encourage to you to begin preparing for possible scenarios well ahead of time. Know what you will do no matter what the market does. Here's an overview of the steps you can take to get it done:
· - Analyze all the possible scenarios based on fundamental and technical analysis, along with "what-if" scenarios.
· - Develop strategies for each possible price scenario. Set trigger points to signal when a particular scenario is unfolding.
· - Execute the appropriate strategies, aware of the impact of your strategies on overall price.
· - Repeat the process – strategic farm marketing is nothing if not dynamic.
Planning your marketing may not be nearly as fun as preparing for a weekend in Super Bowl Village. Still, in either case, if you have your moves mapped out ahead of time you're apt to feel a lot better about your bottom line at the end of the day.

TEL AVIV, Israel, June 24 (UPI) -- More than 60 Grad and Qassam rockets were fired at southern Israel during the weekend despite a shaky cease-fire between Israel and Hamas, officials said.
Sunday morning, two mortar shells exploded in the Western Negev Desert, no one was injured and no damage reported, Israel Radio said. One Israeli was injured when a rocket exploded near a factory in Sderot Saturday, the Channel 2 television network said.
'Israel Defense Forces will act forcefully against those who are trying to harm us, and if necessary, will act even more forcefully. Our policy is to use force in order to return security and quiet to the residents of the South," The Jerusalem Post quoted Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu saying at Sunday's Cabinet meeting.
Saturday night an Iron Dome missile defense battery deployed in the south, successfully intercepted five Grad rockets fired at the city of Ashkelon, the television report said.
The Israeli Army said it will continue to maintain its policy of "fire will be met with fire and quiet by quiet," Channel 2 said.
Since the eruption of violence Monday when an Israeli construction worker was killed by terrorists near the border fence with Egypt, some 16 Palestinians have been killed in retaliatory Israeli air strikes in Gaza, the television station said.
Although Hamas has officially accepted the Egyptian-brokered cease-fire it has done little to enforce it, Haaretz reported.
Jamal Muheisen, a senior Fatah official told the Palestinian news agency Ma'an Saturday night that efforts were underway to renew the truce agreed upon between the sides last week.
Hamas official Ayman Taha told the Safa news agency in Gaza that an Egyptian brokered agreement to halt hostilities had been reached on Saturday night.

Tea leaf ironstone dishes are named for their decorations. There was a superstition that it was lucky if a whole tea leaf unfolded at the bottom of your cup. This idea was translated into the pattern of dishes known as "tea leaf." By 1850 at least twelve English factories were making this pattern, and by the 1870s it was a popular pattern in many countries. The tea leaf was always a luster glaze on early wares, although now some pieces are made with a brown tea leaf. There are many variations of tea leaf designs, such as Teaberry, Pepper Leaf, and Gold Leaf. The designs were used on many different white ironstone shapes, such as Bamboo, Lily of the Valley, Empress, and Cumbow. The tea leaf pattern pictured a luster tea leaf on a white dish.

jardain crochet coaster tutorial with guest rebecca of nook
you all know i have a love affair with knitting & sewing but i also adore crochet. it's the one craft that often get's pushed aside for me though. it's not that i love it less, or don't enjoy it as much, i just for some reason always have my knitting & sewing battling it out. so in honor of throwing some crochet love your way i asked one of my good friends rebecca of the blog and shop "nook" to come give us a fun, easy and very fun tutorial on how to make one of my favorite crocheted things - coasters!
for my birthday this year i got this lovely little package from becca filled with the coasters above, a mug cozy (you can buy these in her shop) and the fabric she used to wrap it! how sweet is that!
rebecca is one of those people you meet who eats, sleeps and breathes knitting but she also crochets. i mean seriously people, check out this blanket!! LOVE!
she knits faster than anyone i know (her hands are like a speedy blur at our knit nights) and i know a lot of knitters. she also seems to have some strange knack for knitting in superhero style...she can be baking bread or making dinner - knitting, talking to me on the phone - knitting, i bet she even knits on the potty..lol. needless to say if there's a chance my bud can pick up her sticks she will. she's got an adorable etsy shop filled with some of her handmade goodies, a pretty blog and if you live in my city (victoria, bc) she also teaches some pretty rad classes at the cloth castle. check out her fall listings..where else can you take lessons for jane richmond's super stylish patterns? plus you get to hang with rebecca and take it from me....she's super fun to be around. i heart her. she feeds me and makes me coffee....a lot.
so get those hooks & yarn out and get ready to whip up some jardain coasters! happy hooking..lol...now let's hear from rebecca....
i have been looking forward to being a part of versus for a long looooong time now. i'm so happy to be here, thanks so much for having me!
it is my honest opinion that a home can never have enough coasters, inside or out.... well... almost. meet jardain. these little cuties are so adorable, you'll wanna be sure to make a set... or two... ! it's enough to make your fav tea cup or mug or even mason jar of homemade smoothies exclaim "oh la la!" so quick, grab your hook and let's get started!
this is a great project even for the very beginner crocheter. and they make perfect gifts from house warming to stocking stuffers.. (eeks! already??) to just because... they're a fairly instant gratification project. i know what you're thinking... "sa-weeeet". yeah, i know.
so here's what you'll need:
4.0mm/US 6 hook
worsted weight yarn. ... each coaster really really doesn't take much, just use up some scraps for this little project.
with your crochet hook, loosely chain (ch) 4 stitches (st). then join with a slipped stitch (sl.st.) to the first ch to make a ring.
rnd 1: make 8 single crochet (sc) inside the ring. sl.st. in your first sc
rnd 2: ch.2. 2sc in the second ch. from hook and continue with 2sc in every stitch around. you have now doubled your stitch count to 16 sts. make a sl.st. in the first ch. of this round. ... in this way, you are basically crocheting a spiral. see?
rnd 3: ch.2. sc in second ch. from hook and in every st. around. sl.st in first ch. of round.
rnd 4: ch.2. 2sc in second ch. from hook and continue with 2sc in every ch. around. sl st. in 1st ch. (36 sts.)
rnd 5: ch.2. sc in second ch. from hook and in every ch. around. sl.st in 1st ch. of round.
rnd 6: ch.2. sc in second ch. from hook, sc, 2sc in next ch, *(sc, sc, 2sc)* repeat from * to * around until last ch. sc. join with sl st. to 1st ch. of round. 46 st. total.
rnd 7: ch.4 sl st. in 5th ch. from hook. *(ch4, skip 4st, sl st. in 5th ch)* repeat from * to * around until 6st remain. ch 4, sl st. in 3rd st from hook, ch4, sl st. in last st. of rnd. you will have created 10 loops.
rnd 8: 6dc in 1st loop space created. sl st. in previous rnd's sl. st. continue around in this manner. 6dc's in every loop space, with a sl. st. in between.
draw a knot through final loop. sew in ends.
and you're done!
see? easy peasy lemon squeezy. enjoy!
thanks so much for joining in on the fun here on versus rebecca! i'm gonna go sip some tea out of my cozy mug sitting on my fave coaster :) you can find more nook here:

I love these and I've made 4 of them now, but my numbers don't match yours. After round 4 I have 32 stitches (as 16 x 2 stitched each =32)ReplyDelete
Then when I make my loops in round 7 I only end up with 9, not 10. Maybe I'm joining my rounds with the sl st in the wrong place... do you sl st into the first sc of that round or into the 1st ch of the initial ch.2 for that round?
Hi there! nook. here, i slip stitch into the first ch. of the initial ch. 2 of the round... so that would increase your st. number by a little. does that make sense? so wonderful that you've already made 4 of them! hrmm maybe we should start a flicker group of photo sharing for these coasters.. what do you think?ReplyDelete
Hello :) Just found your blog via FPK. Thought I'd say hi, and that I totally empathise with the constant knitting/sewing battle. I have also just acquired a spinning wheel, so I think thats going to join in! Really nice blog x SamReplyDelete

Ok so I'm very new to this (just started 3 days ago :)) So I'm doing this and it is creating a dome shape instead of being flat? What am I doing wrong?? I know it me cuz this is like the 3rd round thing I havr tried anf they are all turning into a dome :) Thanks for all the help :)ReplyDelete
Hi Annie! the second round of the pattern is an increase round, so you've doubled your amount of stitches... that is what keeps the circle lying flat. are you remembering to 2sc in every stitch around? hope this helps you out.
also, thanks to Anya! I hope you enjoy them :)
- Annie~~October 26, 2011 at 1:45 PM
Nook, thanks :) I was not increasing the second round kust learned how to do it :) YAY!! Thanks for this pattern I LOVE it!!!ReplyDelete
you're very welcome annie! can't wait to see how they turn out! :)
Hi Nook, I like these a lot, and have tried two already, but I have the same problem as someone above (Anonymous) I end up with 32 stitches in round 4, and I added four increases around the next round to get the 36, but still didn't get 46 the next time for the loops. I end up with 9 1/2 loops, not room enough for all the dcs in the last loop. Any clue how to fix it?ReplyDelete
hi cyn!one thing i can think of from the top of my head, is trying to join with your sl. stitch a stitch before you have been currently doing... that will add to the number of stitches during your rounds. does that make sense?
just let me know, and i'll whip up some more and see where i think the problem is:)
hope this helps out!
I really liked the coasters! So, I whipped out my hook and yarn and stitched one up! Quick and easy to understand! Thank you.ReplyDelete

Cute coaster! Just made my first one and I love it. Haven't crocheted in decades but your little coaster inspired me to start again. Thank you for sharing! :)ReplyDelete

I couldn't get this pattern to work for me. I altered it by just doing continuous sc around without the chain 2. Also, in several places I think it says ch when it should say st.ReplyDelete

Thanks for the cute coaster pattern. I am making some for my friend's bday.ReplyDelete

I love them, once I got started I couldn't stop!ReplyDelete
Hi there! Your work is beautful, thank you for sharing. I have tried the coasters and I have checked myself over and over ... please could you look at round 7 ... it isn't possible to create 10 loops around if you only have 46 stitches ... unless I'm going mad!! Which is possible ;-) If you skip 4 ten times and you join with slip stitch ten times, that equals 50 ... please let me know if I'm loosing my mind?ReplyDelete
hi amy :) if you look at the second half of rnd 7 it says to repeat "around until 6st remain. ch 4, sl st. in 3rd st from hook, ch4, sl st. in last st. of rnd. you will have created 10 loops." that will look after the last loop that you are missing :)ReplyDelete
hope that helps! looking forward to seeing your finished coaster!

Hi nook! Ioved the aqua coasters! You've inspired me to pick up my hook again and start a new project!ReplyDelete
Could these be done with Sugar and Cream thread? They are really a great idea. You are right. Never can we have enough coasters!ReplyDelete
Hi! What yarn did you use for these aqua colored two-toned coasters? They are beautiful and inspiring! Can't wait to make some :)ReplyDelete
I love the coasters, gonna make some... NOW! (just leave all my other projects unfinished..)ReplyDelete
Thanks both of you for the great tutorial.
Just made one of the coasters, sometimes I was confused and I'm not sure if I understood everything right... I had to redo it several times... I think it could be really helpfull if you add the numbers of stiches in EVERY round of your tutorial!ReplyDelete
But however, the coaster turned out to be very nice and cute, I will let you know when I upload it, haven't taken any picture yet.
thx again!

I made one!! Great project for getting back into crocheting. I'm using spring colors to liven up the place. Off to make more coasters! :)ReplyDelete
I too only end up with 9 loops. when I follow your pattern the way I think it says, I end up with a pointy side where I join and ch 2. I can't figure it out. Too bad because yours are so cute.ReplyDelete
Thank you everyone for all of the lovely comments! It makes me so happy to see you all making these coasters! Carol, I don't know if you've read the previous comments? But Amy was having the same issue, of ending up with 9 loops... if you look at the second half of rnd 7 it says to repeat "around until 6st remain. ch 4, sl st. in 3rd st from hook, ch4, sl st. in last st. of rnd. you will have created 10 loops." that will look after the last loop that you are missing :)ReplyDelete
hope that helps! looking forward to seeing your finished coaster!

Valencia's ninth-inning homer powers O's
In bid to make rotation, Matusz yields one run, six hits, notches two strikeouts
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Danny Valencia pummeled a solo homer over the Green Monster with two outs in the top of the ninth to break a tie and lead the Orioles to an 8-7 victory over the Red Sox on Tuesday at JetBlue Park.
The third baseman played for Boston during the latter part of last season and is likely to start this year at Baltimore's Triple-A Norfolk affiliate.
Down 7-1 entering the bottom of the eighth, Boston rallied with a six-spot. Mike Carp, Jeremy Hazelbaker, Mauro Gomez, Jonathan Diaz and Jackie Bradley Jr. all had RBI hits for the Red Sox during the rally.
Orioles lefty Brian Matusz, who is trying to earn a rotation spot, wasn't unhittable, but he still got the job done. Over five innings, Matusz scattered six hits and a run, walking one and striking out two.
"For me, I have the mentality of wanting to build up pitches and innings and be a starter this year, and that's my mentality and taking advantage of the opportunity when [manager Buck Showalter] gives me the ball."
Would Matusz be disappointed if he doesn't land a starting job?
"You know what? That's really not on my mind right now," said Matusz. "My focus is just taking care of working out in the weight room … staying on my cuff program and just getting stronger, staying in good shape, keep competing and let those things fall into place."
Showalter said Matusz is still in the mix for a starting job.
"Nobody's really taken a step back," said Showalter. "We got a little less than two weeks, so we'll continue to take in the looks we have and try to make a good decision."
Is it too early in Matusz's career to consign him to the bullpen?
"I don't know about consign," said Showalter. "There are guys that go to the bullpen and come back to start."
In 68 games as a starter, Matusz is 21-33 with a 5.51 ERA. In 18 relief appearances, he's 1-0 with a 1.35 ERA.
"I'll be frank with you," said Showalter. "If he hadn't had the success he had in the bullpen, we probably wouldn't be having this decision. So it bodes well for him as far as his ability to make our club in some form. It does have something to do with some of the thinking, but I do not look at it as a bird in hand that he's going to be as successful in the bullpen as he was last year. I got nothing to make me think he wouldn't be, but I think this is the time of year you get in a lot of trouble if you assume something just because it happened last year."
Ryan Dempster continued to get stretched out for the Red Sox, giving up six hits and three runs over five innings. The righty walked two and struck out one.
"I got extended again," Dempster said. "I made a couple of mistakes ahead in the count, but I'm feeling better and better and I felt stronger today. Next time out, just get a little further. Things are coming together nice."
Orioles leadoff man Brian Roberts had a hit, a run, two steals and a walk. Third baseman Manny Machado belted two hits.
Will Middlebrooks had two hits for Boston, including a ground-rule double. Mike Napoli hit a first-inning sacrifice fly to get Boston on the scoreboard, but the lead was short-lived.
Trayvon Robinson hit a leadoff homer in the third, and then Roberts added an RBI single while Nate McLouth brought home another run with a run-scoring groundout.
Red Sox setup man Junichi Tazawa fired a scoreless sixth inning, striking out one.
Baltimore would tack on three more runs in the seventh off Daniel Bard, who hadn't allowed any in his previous five relief appearances. Jason Pridie made it 4-1 with an RBI groundout and then Ryan Flaherty added a two-run single.
Orioles reliever Kevin Gausman followed Matusz and fired two shutout frames of relief. The righty allowed just one hit and fanned three batters.
Up next: The Orioles are back home Wednesday against the Blue Jays, in a 1:05 p.m. ET scheduled start. Lefty Zach Britton goes for Baltimore against right-hander Jeremy Jeffress.

The Fire will be looking to bounce back from last week's 1-0 defeat to the New York Red Bulls and pick up their first points of the season when they travel west to take on the Colorado Rapids at Dick's Sporting Goods Park on Saturday.
Historically, the Fire have had a nightmare playing in Colorado. Prior to last year's 2-1 victory at the Rapids, Chicago hadn't won in Colorado since 1999—a span of 10 matches.
"I think that it's always a challenge," Fire head coach Carlos de los Cobos said of playing at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. "But we need to prepare good and go to Colorado [and] think that we can change the history, [so] we can return to home with a good result."
If the Fire are to return home with a good result, they will need to stop several key Colorado players. Forwards Conor Casey and Omar Cummings are always dangerous, and the Fire's back line will have to play well if they are to effectively limit the skillful tandem. In particular, the Chicago defense will want to keep a watchful eye on Cummings, who scored two goals in the teams' last meeting.
The Fire will also want to keep a close eye on Colorado central midfielders Jeff Larentowicz and Pablo Mastroeni. Larentowicz, brought in this offseason from New England, and Mastroeni figure to put a physical stamp on the proceedings and whoever gets the nod in the Fire's central midfield will have a tough test.
It would be nice to see de los Cobos give Baggio Husidic and Logan Pause the start in the center for Saturday's match. Pause and Peter Lowry started last week, but Husidic—who played well after coming on as a second half substitute in Matchday 1—provides a more physical presence than Lowry and did well at Colorado last year. Regardless of who starts in the central midfield this week, they will need to play well against the solid pairing of Larentowicz and Mastroeni if the Fire are to leave the Rocky Mountains with a result.

Chinese E-Commerce Behemoth Alibaba Finally Has a Real Competitor
Alibaba Group Holding has so far dominated China's e-commerce market, and its Taobao and Tmall marketplaces continue to attract hundreds of millions of online shoppers. But the alliance between Chinese e-commerce firm JD.com and social media giant Tencent Holdings, announced Monday, will likely create a strong competitor to Alibaba.
The deal, in which Tencent takes a 15% stake in JD, comes at a time when established Internet companies are scrambling to adapt to a new environment where more Chinese consumers use smartphones as primary Internet tools. The combination of Tencent's ability to attract smartphone users with its massively popular WeChat mobile messaging application, and JD's expertise in retail and logistics, could pose a threat to Alibaba when more e-commerce transactions occur through mobile devices, analysts say.
"For the first time ever, there will be a serious local contender to challenge Alibaba's dominance in e-commerce," says Forrester Research analyst Bryan Wang.
An Alibaba spokeswoman declined to comment on the tie-up between Tencent and JD.
While Alibaba runs marketplace sites that serve as venues where millions of merchants sell items, JD, like Amazon.com , runs its own online store that sells goods kept in its own warehouses. Beijing-based JD also operates its own delivery services.
Tencent, whose WeChat app has more than 272 million monthly active users, last year added an electronic payment function to the messaging tool, a step toward creating a broader mobile platform for other services such as video games and e-commerce.
To be sure, just because WeChat can occupy smartphone users' time and attention doesn't mean it can also make people want to do a lot of shopping. Efforts to connect communication and e-commerce could put off some users if the commercial intention becomes too obvious.
Still, there are ways for WeChat and JD to combine their services without annoying users too much, says Mr. Wang.
While Tencent and JD haven't said how exactly they will cooperate in e-commerce, Mr. Wang says that Tencent could, for example, make it possible for WeChat users to share their purchase history on JD's shopping site with their friends. At the same time, JD could also allow shoppers on the site to view what their WeChat friends have said about certain items.
"Chinese consumers take their friends' reviews very seriously," says Mr. Wang.
Even so, Alibaba is still the most popular destination for online shopping for most Chinese consumers, either through personal computers or mobile phones, and challenging its position won't be easy. In November, on Alibaba's annual day of discounts called the 11.11 Shopping Festival, Taobao and Tmall generated more than $5.75 billion in sales just in 24 hours.
Alibaba, for its part, has made a series of acquisitions since last year to make its services more attractive to smartphone users. Last month, the company made a $1.13 billion offer to turn AutoNavi Holdings into a wholly owned unit, after it bought a 28% stake in the mobile map developer last year. Alibaba last year also bought an 18% stake in Sina's Weibo microblog, the Chinese equivalent of Twitter, as a way to attract mobile users.
Tencent's deal with JD will put more pressure on Alibaba to further strengthen its mobile-based operations, while also improving its logistics and customer services, Mr. Wangs says.
"This will push Alibaba to change more quickly."
