Here is a transcript of Patriot head coach Bill Belichick's comments following New England's 31-28 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
On why it comes down against the wire against Peyton Manning and the Colts:
"He's pretty good, he's pretty good. They've got a good team, I mean, it's not just him, they've got a lot of other good football players too. They're well coached, they do a good job. They've won a lot of games….they've won a lot of games."
On the interception by James Sanders:
"I'm sure they'd like to have it back. It was a heck of an interception by James. He went up at the high point of the ball – it was a terrific catch."
On if the Colts changed anything in their last few drives:
"No, we were playing some zone coverage and they hit them underneath. And we got in man a couple times and they ran good routes and stuck it in there like they normally do. It was a great catch on the middle read there for the touchdown. Look, they're tough. They're tough."
On whether moving Kyle Arrington, was an in-game adjustment or something they planned:
"Yeah, yeah, we planned it. We don't draw them up on the dirt now."
On what it says about the team being able to come up with a win:
"As usual, games like that come down to a couple plays. Today we were fortunate enough to make them."
On his thoughts about the touchdown run by Danny Woodhead?
"He's a good runner. I thought Benny [BenJarvus Green-Ellis] ran hard. Woody [Danny Woodhead] ran hard. Those guys break a lot of tackles, they're tough to bring down. Looked like we had a couple good blocks there from Branch and Welker. It was hard to see the whole play, but it looked like Branch came over and kind of helped spring him there. Wes was making a block in the end zone, so good running, good downfield blocking by the receivers. It was good team football."
On his thought process in putting Darius Butler back out there:
"Well, we switched Kyle."
On the reasoning for the move of Arrington:
"It's something we felt, you know, could help us in the game."
On how they'll manage the short week with the upcoming game in Detroit on Thursday:
"Yeah, it's tough. We've got to go quick. Tomorrow is going to be a scouting report and get going on Detroit day. And Tuesday it will be a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday combined, and Wednesday we're travelling, so we're going to have to cram a lot in here and do a good job on preparing for the Lions, they've got a lot of stuff to get ready for. [They're] a real explosive team offensively. So we've got our work cut out for us on the preparation for that. That's the way it is. With every long week comes a short week, with every short week comes a long week, so it all balances out in the end. But that will be a big challenge, preparation challenge for us this week.
On if he sees Tom Brady getting more comfortable:
"There were a lot of great things in the game. Unfortunately, the fourth quarter offensively that wasn't part of it. Defensively we just didn't do a good job on our two possessions or their two possessions after it was 31-17. After we kicked the field goal we had two bad drives on defense and two bad drives on offense. We certainly need to do better in that situation as a team."
On if he thought Deion Branch and Tom Brady are "meshing" really well:
"Yeah, I mean they are both really good players. They are both really instinctive players. Deion almost always makes the right decision and does the right thing on his routes based on the corner's technique or the coverage, and Tom of course does a great job of reading that stuff. So they're just two good players."
On the offensive line protection of Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis:
"Well, I don't think you ever want to hold the ball against those guys. You try to get that out as quick as you can, but you've got to mix in some downfield routes or the defense will just sit on everything and throw all two-yard patterns – they'll just sit on top of those. So somewhere along the line you've got to mix it up and get the ball down the field. But blocking those guys is a challenge."
On his thoughts on the short week and playing on Thanksgiving:
"I mean, I think Thanksgiving is a great day for football. It's a great day for high school football and obviously for the NFL the double header is now a triple header. I mean that is a great day for everybody to be with their family and eat turkey and watch football. That's kind of what that holiday is, so it doesn't get any better than that. It's a great day for all of us to be thankful for all of the opportunities that we have, particularly the opportunity to play in the National Football League, and for me personally, to be with the Patriots and to be here and the opportunity that Robert [Kraft] and his family have given me, so that's great. But I mean football is football and everybody looks forward to Thanksgiving Day. But having been in Detroit, I know what a big game that is for the Lions and how much that is a part of that city and that franchise and the tradition that has been there. They are always ready to go on Thanksgiving. Jim Schwartz – I know he does a great job and his teams are always well prepared and I know that they'll be ready to go. We have a lot of work to do to get to that point. So after a couple hours we're just going to have to turn it around and get going."
On the last interception, whether or not he thought Sanders would be there based on the coverage:
"No. He kind of fell off on the route. He kind of read the quarterback and fell off on the route."
On whether he made the play just based on instincts:
"Yeah, well, he read the quarterback and making a good play on the ball. He went up – I mean, he covered some ground to get to the ball, went up, high pointed it. I mean, it was a great interception."

This information was added by Reid Scheinman on 3-10-11: Winston was Prime Minister during 2 World Wars.He won a Nobel Prize in literature in 1953.
Soldier, politician and finally prime minister, Winston Churchill was one of Britain's greatest 20th-century heroes. He is particularly remembered for his indomitable spirit while leading Great Britain to victory in World War II. Churchill fought with the British Army in India and Sudan, and as a journalist was captured in South Africa (where his dispatches from the Boer War first brought him to public prominence). He became a member of Parliament in 1900 and remained an MP for over 64 years. His early topsy-turvy political career earned him many enemies, but his stirring speeches, bulldog tenacity and refusal to make peace with Adolf Hitler made him the popular choice to lead England through World War II. When Britain and its allies prevailed in 1945, Churchill's place in history was assured. (Ironically, he lost the prime ministership two months after Germany's surrender, when the opposition Labor Party took majority control of Parliament.) One of the 20th century's most quotable wits, Churchill wrote a plethora of histories, biographies and memoirs, including the landmark four-volume A History of the English-speaking Peoples (1956-58). In 1953 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature; he was knighted the same year. Churchill served as prime minister from 1940-45 and again from 1951-55... He married the former Clementine Hozier in 1908. They had four daughters and a son: Diana (b. 1909), Randolph (b. 1911), Sarah (b. 1914), Marigold (b. 1918) and Mary (b. 1922). Marigold died in 1921... Winston's wartime contemporaries included presidents Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, French resistance leader Charles de Gaulle and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin... More recent British PMs have included Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair... The famous portrait of a scowling Churchill was taken by Canadian photographer Yousuf Karsh. |

She'd be another Clarence Thomas:
This past Friday, Judge Janice Rogers Brown of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals voted to uphold a blatantly protectionist law designed to prevent competition in the dairy industry. As a matter of judicial doctrine, the case is unremarkable — such laws are upheld all the time. And that — as Judge Brown explained — is the problem.
The case concerned a 2005 federal law designed to prevent dairies that both produce and process milk from having a competitive advantage over dairies that only produce milk. More precisely, the law was written to hamstring a specific Arizona dairy business whose competition had led to a 20-cent drop in the regional price of milk.
The three-judge panel unanimously upheld the law. But Judge Brown, in a scathing concurrence joined by Chief Judge David Sentelle, made clear that she wasn't happy about it. Her vote, she explained, was compelled by decades of bad U.S. Supreme Court precedent.
Since the 1930s, the Supreme Court has ordered lower courts to review economic regulations with an extremely deferential "rational basis test," which requires only that such regulations be "rationally related" to a "legitimate government interest." In practice, this amounts to no meaningful review at all.
With that kind of precedent, it is no surprise the D.C. Circuit upheld a law primarily designed to subsidize milk producers by forcing consumers to pay artificially inflated prices for milk. As Judge Brown aptly put it, the Supreme Court has "abdicated its constitutional duty to protect economic rights."

Mix the sugar and cinnamon for the churros in a wide, shallow dish; this is for coating the cooked churros.
Churros: Put the flour into a bowl and stir in the baking powder, then beat in the olive oil and 1 cup freshly boiled water. Keep mixing until you have a warm sticky dough, and let rest for about 10 minutes or for as long as it takes for the corn oil to heat up.
Heat the oil in a smallish saucepan; it should come about a third of the way up the sides of the pan. When you think it's hot enough, toss in a cube of bread and see if it sizzles and browns. If it browns in about 30 seconds, it's hot enough; or if you're using an electric deep-fat fryer regulate the temperature, it should be at 325 degrees F. Keep a watchful eye on your hot oil pan at all times.
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees F.
When you are ready, load up a piping bag with a large star shaped nozzle (8mm) and fill it with the churro dough. Squeeze short lengths, approximately 1 1/2 to 2 inches, of dough into the hot oil, snipping them off with a pair of scissors as you go. Cook about 3 or 4 at a time. Once they turn a rich golden brown, fish them out with a slotted spoon or tongs onto a kitchen towel lined baking sheet. To keep the churros warm while you fry the remaining dough. Blot them with paper towels and transfer them to a parchment lined baking sheet. Put the baking sheet into the oven to keep the churros warm. Even if you let them sit out of the oven, they do need 5 to 10 minutes to rest before you eat them, to allow them to set inside.
Chocolate sauce: Melt all of the chocolate sauce ingredients in a heavy based saucepan over low heat. Once combined and the chocolate has melted, remove the pan from the heat and set it aside in a warm place.
Toss the hot churros into the sugar and cinnamon mixture and shake them about to get a good covering, just before serving. Arrange the churros on a serving platter and serve.
Pour the chocolate sauce into individual pots for serving (to avoid the double dipping dilemma) and dip'n'dunk away.

By Alan Robinson, AP Sports Writer
PITTSBURGH With his place in home run history secure, Barry Bonds says next season likely will be his last. Bonds previously talked about playing in 2008. On Monday, the San Francisco slugger looked toward retirement.
"(Playing) after next year? I don't know. I don't think so," he said. "I don't think two years I can make." As for where he'd finish up, Bonds wasn't sure. "It's hard for me to think about that right now, I'm a Giant," he said. "That's who I am, it would be hard for me to take that uniform off. It would be very hard. But I don't know yet, I have a lot of time to think about it in the wintertime." Bonds said he wants to play one more season because he still has some reachable goals. "Yeah, I need to win a championship and get 3,000 hits, that would be nice to (end) my career," he said. Bonds has 2,919 hits after getting a single in the first game of Monday's makeup doubleheader against Pittsburgh. Bonds spent the first seven seasons of his major league career with the Pirates. He went 1-for-3 as San Francisco lost the opener 3-1. The last-place Giants are expected to undergo an offseason roster overhaul to get younger, and it is anticipated they may finally cut ties with 43-year-old Bonds despite his strong production -- 24 homers and 56 RBIs. Bonds, who has played for the Giants since 1993, is unsigned past this season. Bonds previously joked about playing until he was 100. He has kidded in the past that not everything he says is set in stone. Last week, Bonds broke Hank Aaron's career home run record with No. 756. He's now up to 758. Bonds, a two-time MVP while playing for division-winning Pirates teams in 1990 and 1992, received far more cheers than usual as he played left field. Some fans saluted the home run champ by holding up signs reading "Congratulations, Barry" that were included with the ballpark purchase of a local newspaper. "I had great times here," Bonds said. Despite his success in Pittsburgh -- he hit 176 home runs for the Pirates from 1986-92, even while leading off for four seasons -- Bonds has been one of the city's least-favorite athletes since his departure. But unlike other cities, Bonds' lack of popularity in his former home has far more to do with his playoff failures than the late-in-his-career allegations involving performance-enhancing drugs. The Pirates lost three consecutive NLCS with Bonds in left field, losing a 3-2 series lead in 1991 against Atlanta and a 2-0, ninth-inning lead in Game 7 in Atlanta in 1992. The Braves scored the winning run when slow-footed Sid Bream made it home on Francisco Cabrera's line-drive single, beating Bonds' throw to the plate. That play is the one Pittsburghers most associate with Bonds. Bonds talked at length Monday about that throw for the first time in his career, defending where he was playing at the time and his off-line peg. Bonds remembered the count as being 3-2, but it actually was 2-1. "In that situation, full count, you've got to take a step back and try to cover as much ground as you can in case he hits a line drive. I wanted to make sure if he did hit a line drive to give myself every opportunity to catch the ball, let alone worrying about playing so shallow that I couldn't get there," he said. "I had to come over to my left and then crossfire -- you can look back and look at the history of baseball and how many times have guys thrown guys out in that situation?" No matter those postseason failures, Bonds said he fondly remembers the Pirates, manger Jim Leyland, coaches Tommy Sandt and teammates such as Bobby Bonilla, Doug Drabek, John Smiley, Andy Van Slyke, Lloyd McClendon and Rick Rhoden. "We used to play around-the-world basketball in the locker room with a Nerf ball, but I never won," Bonds said. "I got to the finals a couple of time. The times I had with Mac and Andy and Rhoden and all those guys, that's where you started. You never forget those guys." Bonds also talked about the raised-hands pose he struck about hitting his 756th home run. He said the only other time he did that was to celebrate a game-winning home run off the Cardinals' Lee Smith in August 1991 at Three Rivers Stadium. "That was big ... that was the one that got us to the playoffs," he said. Copyright 2007 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Samsung to Update Wide Range of Galaxy Phones to KitKat
Feb 18, 2014, 9:08 AM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Samsung today announced that it plans to update a significant number of its U.S. Galaxy-branded smartphones and tablets to Android 4.4.2 KitKat. The list of phones includes the Galaxy Note II and 3; the Galaxy S4, S4 mini, S4 Active, and S4 zoom; the Galaxy S III and S III mini; and the Galaxy Mega and Galaxy Light. Samsung will also update the Galaxy Note 8, Tab 3, Note 10.1, and Note 10.1 2014 Edition tablets. Samsung said the timing of the updates will vary by carrier, but they will begin today and continue to be pushed out for several months.
Can someone tell me what are the greater diferences between JellyBean & Kitkat?
There are small differences, the most noticeable is how Google now is available from the home screen instead of having to launch the app. However, everything seemed to run smoother. I tried it on the Nexus 5. Liked it...
Plus you can try out (Depending on OEM) ART which compiles the apps farther at install, bigger app size on storage, but apps should run even more smoother because it do...
So you won't be able to organize any folders you've created on the microSD card. No addi...

My laptop turns on and shows the logo for a few seconds then the screen goes blank. Ive carried out system fast tests with both extensive test and quick test and all categories passed. Please help. Thanks.
I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)
Do any lights stay on when the screen goes blank or does everything go dark? It sounds like the screen stays on when you are in the BIOS since you were able to run the diagnostics. You might try restoring Windows back if that is what is not working using the F11 system recovery option.

Hi Lori, I use SanDisc Memory card for both my Laptop and Camera.. Its really good.. Compact And excellent performance.. I would suggest u to by a 64GB or 128GB Memory card for storage.. But 128gb sd cards are more than 2 or 3 times expensive than the 64gb memory cards.. 64gb would cost u around $30 but 128gb would be costing around $70 or more.. So, wat i would suggest is to buy an 1TB External Hard drive which would cost u around $50... Western Digital and Seagate are good.. I prefer WD and i own one..So u can do like this - keep a budget of $80 and purchase a 1TB WD Ext HDD and a 64 GB micro SD card.. (Product pricing may vary).. But remember this - Internal Hard disc or the External HDD, both a very delicate.. Should be handled with atmost care.. You Drop down your HDD once, thats it, its gone.. Dead.. But Memory cards are strong, can handle Drops, bumps and pressures.. And yes, i both HDD and mmc, u can store Media files (Pics, Movies and Songs), Software files (exe files only), games and other documents.. But u can not "install" Softwares or games into mmc ot ext HDD, there r chances that it wont work.. Also mmc are Compact but Ext HDD are not.. So upto u to decide..

Hi, HP Stream is made specifically for browsing purposes only. The agent that sold you the laptop should have educated you about HP Stream Notebooks properly. As the name itself. It was made for surfing purposes only. So theres no need to FIX the computer. What you need is an upgrade. If you want to store more files or docs then get an sd card.

Read other 9 answersI attempted to contact HP is regard to the issue that I am experiencing, but cannot as my warranty expired on 6/22/16. I'm hoping someone e here can provide insight. When I turned my Stream on this afternoon, it wouldn't boot. Odd, since it was fully charged last night, so I went ahead and plugged it in. Upon doing so, I encountered a black screen stating my internal battery was nearly at capacity. What precisely does that mean? I am able to use the notebook as long as I keep it plugged in. Also, while plugged in I receive a message stating that it's connected to a power source and the battery is not charging. The moment I unplug it, it shuts down. I'm more than upset in regard to this new and unwanted development. The notebook is only 15 months old. Is there any way to salvage it or am I looking at buying a new one? I've always used HP desktops,laptops, and notebooks; now I will never purchase one again. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

I can try turn it on, sometimes it turns on for a few seconds then turns off, other times it just works as normal. But now and then, I can't use it at all because it just won't turn on. Strangely, when it does turn on, the cursor usually isn't on the screen and only appears after about a minute. It's fully charged and I have the charger plugged in. It has enough memory, and I have seen problems like this where laptops have overheated, but the HP Stream Notebook PC 14 has a solid state drive, and it never feels warm. Any help?

I have resolved my issue. The problem was that the laptop casing near the area of the power button had become a little bit loose. Everytime I moved the laptop it must have activated the power button and turned if off. I had a look on the underside of the laptop, and found a screw underneath one of those rubber stickers in the corners. It turns out that it had loosened itself over time. I screwed it back in, the casing is now more tight, and the problem has stopped occuring.

I tried to factory reset it and it has failed twice. I tried everything else and nothing is working. I really don't have the money to pay for an expensive repair and I need this laptop for school and work.
Hi, Are you able to get past BIOS/UEFI screen? After that to Windows setup screen? Please test your hard drive and memory (extensive testing) by tapping F2 key as soon as you power on laptop from System Diagnostics. Let it finish. If all tests passed proceed.It is a very economical notebook. Therefore manufacturer has cut down many standards like hard drive storage capacity, RAM, processor to name few. This makes Windows installation tough especially Recovery process as it uses more resources.I would suggest you to clean install Windows using Microsoft windows media creation tool by creating bootable installation USB.Get the exact version of Windows that came pre installed with this notebook -->Windows 8/8.1: Option 1https://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/18309-windows-8-windows-8-1-iso-download-create.htmlWindows 10: Option 1https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2376-usb-flash-drive-create-install-windows-10-a.htmlDownload, save additional drivers from your HP support page.RegardsVisruth
Read other 1 answersI bought an HP stream notebook for Christmas last year with Windows 10 , and I got a virus on it a few weeks ago and tried to reset it and I say it down for like 2 hrs and it was still frozen at 1% so I turned it off. When I turned it back on there would be a line at the top and then the HP welcome sign would show and then it would go black then turn off ( the power light was still on) and then continue to restart over and over. I tried pressing f11 to go and reset it but every time it says "there was an error resetting your pc" at about 44% and the diagnostic test found nothing. PLZ HELP
Hi, the Windows 10 installation image is available for download from Microsoft if you want to wipe the disk clean and do a fresh install. There are instructions here.
Read other 5 answersThe notebook was trying to run an update, a problem occured and everything froze. It would not turn off so had to let it run out of power so it could be turned back on.

Hold the power button down for 10 seconds to see if it will power down. If not, leave it unplugged from the charger until the battery completely discharges and then reconnect the charger and boot it.

@Mark-J1 Hello;Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums! This error code means one or more of the boot loader files has been corrupted. You will need access to a working PC for this step in order to create the media needed to repair your PC boot loader.Once you have that, please download and create Win10 install media from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10Note that when you go do download and build install media, the tool defaults to matching what is already installed on your PC (as in, Home for Home, 64-bit for 64-bit). While you CAN change these settings, do NOT. If you do, the resulting media will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code!Boot from the media you created, and follow the directions in this link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.htmlYou will need to go to the Advanced Options screen and click on Startup Repair. You will probably have to run Startup Repair three times for it to fix all the boot loader problems.When done, your PC should boot OK. If it does not, there is a more serious problem.Good Luck

Read other answerswhile trying to download and update to windows 10 i keep getting stopped at Note enough space, its saying i need 5GB of space. my RAM is only 2GB. does this mean i cant get windows 10? or must i get an external hard drive?
shannel First of all, you're confusing memory with disk space. The Win10 Upgrade typically needs 20GB of disk space, and as your laptop most likely has only a 32GB drive, it has nowhere near enough space to do the upgrade. Second, the 2GB you mention is system memory, which is totally unrelated to disk space. Personally I would advise strongly AGAINST doing the Win10 Upgrade, as it is a LOT of work and even when that's done, folks have complained about later, not being able to apply the Cumulative Updates, and there is a BIG one coming out the beginning of August! Here is a link from somone with a similar model who did perform the upgrade: How I was able to install Windows 10 on HP Stream 13 (32GB S... - HP Support Forum - 5179626

Since the Bush administration began the buildup in the fall of 2002 for war against Iraq, Americans have been inundated with news and analysis of the Iraq situation. Recently, leading U.S. newspapers have been running three to five major articles a day related to Iraq— either reported directly from Iraq or from Washington. Television news has been the same, including extensive on-scene footage. As a result, the public has been provided a massive amount of news and analysis on which to make its voting decisions in this important presidential election year.
Imagine my surprise, then, when I arrived in Tokyo in mid-May for a three-week visit. Newspaper and television coverage of Iraq was very limited, and viewers got little sense of the continuing controversy over the Bush administration's policies. On NHK's "Ohayou Nippon" show, Iraq received only one to two minutes a day during most of the time I was in Japan. To be sure, when the two Japanese journalists were killed, the result was a couple of days of extensive reporting. But only those Japanese who regularly watch CNN or BBC get broader and deeper coverage of these events.
At one level, this experience was a humbling lesson in the differing priorities of our two societies. Because the U.S. government chose to invade Iraq, supplied virtually all the soldiers, and remains firmly in control of the postwar occupation, it is appropriate for Americans to be strongly focused on news from and about Iraq. Japan, meanwhile, has been more concerned about developments in its very close neighbor North Korea as well as domestic issues. Perhaps it was a healthy reminder to me that events in Iraq are not perceived in all parts of the world as the most important development in the opening years of the 21st century. Despite Japanese soldiers in Samawah, it can be argued that the major policy developments in Iraq are mostly an American affair, with little direct relevance to Japan.
Perhaps Americans are so absorbed with the continuing saga of Iraq that they are paying insufficient attention to the Korean crisis. But I worry that the human-interest story of the abductees and their family members that has so dominated the news in Japan has diverted public attention from the core issue with North Korea. That issue is the question of how we should react to an unpredictable government that may now possess nuclear weapons. Getting North Korea to dismantle its nuclear weapons and missile programs is an extraordinarily difficult and important task. As devastating as the abductee story is at a human level, the fate of a dozen individuals and their family members pales in comparison to the potential destruction of human life that could result from renewed military conflict on the Korean peninsula.
Several years ago Americans allowed their views of Cuba to be skewed by a somewhat similar human-interest episode. This involved the escape to Florida of a small child whose mother died before reaching the United States and whose father was still in Cuba. The U.S. government returned the child to his father over the strong objections of other relatives in the United States. The American media frenzy over that story was quite foolish. Likewise, while the abductees are a truly tragic human-interest story, they are not a serious foreign policy issue that could affect war and peace on the Korean peninsula.
Furthermore, the Iraq story does matter to the Japanese public. Prime Minister Koizumi has been unusually outspoken among national leaders in his support for the Bush administration's policies. Koizumi has sent over 500 Japanese soldiers to Iraq, and he has decreed that they will stay on as part of the multinational force after June 30. Even though they are present to carry out humanitarian projects, they are armed soldiers present in a dangerous environment. The Japanese government is inextricably linked with the Bush administration's controversial policies.
Governments making controversial decisions— like the Bush administration's invasion and occupation of Iraq or the Koizumi government's decision to support these policies— should face a vigorous public debate. For such a debate to be well informed, the public needs the facts. With regard to Iraq, the Americans may be getting even more information than they need, but I fear that the average Japanese is getting too little.

Chronic Epstein Barr Virus
Post: #1
Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus (CEBV) Disease One of the most controversial areas in medicine today is the issue of Epstein-Barr Virus Disease. While some medical doctors and researches believe that Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus Disease (CEBV) not only exists but is at epidemic proportions here in the U.S. others believe and are adamant that CEBV is just a hoax, a fad, "the disease of the month," an excuse to rationalize fatigue and depression. Large numbers on non-medical "sufferers" of CEBV, however, are coming forward to tell their stories of the problems that they have been suffering, some for years. With or without a name for it, they see their symptoms fitting those that are most frequently used to define CEBV. Those experts who believe in CEBV, often claim that both children and adults may suffer for many years, from one or more combinations of often debilitating symptoms which can include: Fever, fatigue, sore throat, swollen glands, joint pains, ear and muscle aches, breathing pains, heat, cold and light sensitivity, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, chills, stomach pain weight loss, rashes, sleep problems, dizziness, hair loss, night sweats, alcohol intolerance, bladder dysfunction, lack of physical or speech coordination, swelling of eyelids or hands and fingers, odd sensations in the nerves or skin, confusion, inability, to concentrate, impaired reasoning, memory loss, depression, anxiety and mood swings. These experts suggest that often individuals who seek medical attention are missed diagnosed with conditions ranging from multiple sclerosis to lupus, to psychosomatic problems and even hypochondria. Often patients come to doctors with long lists of symptoms, symptoms having long durations and often significant severity. The physician may not even think about CEBV. Most doctors are taught that "mononucleosis" is that of a short term, non-reoccurring illness. CEBV infection, they say, is different from mononucleosis, it is a separate disease entity own. Some people who later develop CEBV have had full blown "mono" initially, while others have much milder symptoms with their initial infection. EBV is believed to be one of the most common viruses affecting humans. It is a member of the herpes virus' family and infects the antibody-producing white blood cells known as B-cells. It remains in these cells in latent form long after the body's natural defenses have brought the infection under control. The initial episode, and type and degree of the symptoms, often differ from person to person. They frequently depend on age, sex and the state of the immune system at the time of the first exposure. Reactivation may occur at times when the immune system is "less effective" than normal in otherwise healthy people, those individuals on immunosuppressive drugs or during pregnancy. There is some evidence of a hereditary basis. There appears to be a relationship to some form of allergy. Eighty-five percent of patients with CEBV have active allergy problems, often these allergies appear to increase CEBV symptoms during high allergy periods. There is some connection to systemic monilia infection. The interrelationship to allergy and monilia are still unclear. Is CEBV Dangerous? Generally speaking the answer to this question is, No. There have been few deaths that have been directly related to complications of CEBV. There is question about association with certain lymphomas and other cancers but no direct evidence of relationship. The major problem is the degree of the effect of the symptoms on the infected person. I have personally known one individual that committed suicide because of the severity of the symptoms. Many others may have to make major changes in their lives and in their life plans. How Can I Tell If I Have CEBV? Many people that are infected with EBV have little or no symptoms. It has been estimated that some 70% or more Americans have been exposed to EBV. Others develop mononucleosis ("mono") which goes away in a short time. CEBV is different from mono because its symptoms (described above) can linger a very long time, coming and going due to some unknown stimulant. Women are generally twice as often affected as compared to men. However, both men and women share the same severity of symptoms. If you, or a member of your family, have some or any of the above symptoms, especially the fatigue, loss of ability to function, fevers, unknown abdominal pain or joint pains you might suspect CEBV. Once CEBV is suspected, a blood EBV antibody titer should be performed. It is through the complex of symptoms determined on the medical history, the findings of the medical examination and the blood antibody titer levels that ultimately lead to this diagnosis. The blood levels of antibodies may need to be checked more then once in order to accurately make a diagnoses. A change in the blood titer levels demonstrates active infection or recurrence of CEBV infection. Is the Disease Contagious? The answer is yes and no. EBV is a common virus and is spread through oral (kissing, sharing of eating and drinking utensils, etc.) and possibly through sexual contact yet everyone exposed to it does not end up getting it. As stated above the state of the immune system of the individual exposed to it is very important. It is less likely to take hold and infect an otherwise healthy, emotionally stable individual. There is no indication that relatives become infected in normal living situations. How is CEBV Treated? There is no specific treatment for CEBV. Individual symptoms must be treated symptomatically. The most promising method of treatment appears to be activating the immune system. This is done through a series of indirect methods such as; diet, high dosage vitamins and minerals, rest, exercise, affirmations, visual imagery and positive thinking. There are no prescription medications that are antiviral of proven or suspected value. Immune Support Intravenous Drip Therapy (high dosages of vitamins and minerals given two to three times weekly intravenously) while still in research mode has shown promise. When necessary prescription or natural products used to reduce inflammation, obtain analgesia, help with sleep, reduce anxiety or depression may be helpful or even necessary. Unfortunately most often, nothing seems to help. Patients and faith are most important in waiting for the particular episode to remit. While we don't talk about a cure we often see that after some period of time (weeks to years) the disease appears to burn itself out and the symptoms either gradually or suddenly disappear. The hard part is often waiting and having patience until this happens. The most difficult part of CEBV is living with its effects on the life of the individual. Does CEBV Really Exist? While many people do believe that CEBV is a real disease entity others believe that it is not. In fact, many physicians believe that CEBV doesn't exist. Some physicians believe that it occurs as a secondary problem to chronic yeast infection. Still others believe that Epstein-Barr virus does not cause the problems listed above but rather, that it is secondary to another process entirely. I, myself believe that the primary process is a kind of depression, wherein the immune system is depressed along with other biologic processes of the body. In this conceptualization the cause of the symptoms is the kind of depression where faulty beliefs, lies, guilt and shame have been suppressed for many years. When this happens the body/mind does not allow these conflicts into our conscious awareness. This causes a constant state of stress, Fight or Flight, which over a long period of time undermines the immune system and leaves the body vulnerable to infection, especially yeast and CEBV. This process while regulated through the stress mechanism is in itself not part of the stress mechanism, but rather an affect of its overwhelm and long term over stimulation. In order to cure this process, the depression must be tackled and resolved. In this sense Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is one of a long list of conditions known as Stress-Related Disorders.

Subject: 1.01 What is CFS? Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is an emerging illness characterized by debilitating fatigue (experienced as exhaustion and extremely poor stamina), neurological problems, and a variety of flu-like symptoms. The illness is also known as chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS), and outside of the USA is usually known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). In the past the syndrome has been known as chronic Epstein-Barr virus (CEBV). The core symptoms include excessive fatigue, general pain, mental fogginess, and often gastro-intestinal problems. Many other symptoms will also be present, however they will typically be different among different patients. These include: fatigue following stressful activities; headaches; sore throat; sleep disorder; abnormal temperature; and others. The degree of severity can differ widely among patients, and will also vary over time for the same patient. Severity can vary between getting unusually fatigued following stressful events, to being totally bedridden and completely disabled. The symptoms will tend to wax and wane over time. This variation, in addition to the fact that the cause of the disease is not yet known, makes this illness difficult to diagnose.

MAN I got that when I was 15 (I am now 36) and it messed me up so bad...I had to quit school and retake my sophomore year! I had a relapse the next year but made it though school. I haven't had it full blast since then, but if I don't get enough rest, I get sick. I get the swollen glands and throat and have to sleep a lot. I feel bad for anyone who gets this as an adult. Do implants cause this, too? Yikes!

I would never thought of this one. He said he will do some more test just to be sure.

My Visit to Swaziland: The Country With the World's Highest HIV Prevalence RateBy Jeffrey S. Crowley, M.P.H. May 26, 2011 This article was cross-posted from the AIDS.gov blog. Last week, I wrote about my attendance at the PEPFAR annual meeting in South Africa, the country that has more people living with HIV (over 5 million) than any other country in the world. After this meeting, I visited the neighboring country of Swaziland, which has the unwelcome distinction of having the highest HIV and TB prevalence rates in the world. This part of my trip had special personal significance for me. Twenty-one years ago, I had the privilege of serving as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in Swaziland, where I worked as a high school science teacher. This trip really was part homecoming as Swaziland remains a part of me, and it gave me a chance to reconnect with many friends whom I haven't seen in more than a decade. But, I also spent several days with the PEPFAR team in the country -- especially the Peace Corps -- learning about the broad range of ways that the United States government is extending a hand of friendship and is partnering with Swaziland to respond to their HIV epidemic. A major focus of PEPFAR's work is to assist the Swazi government's plan to scale up adult male circumcision. This lowers the risk that men will acquire HIV infection and research models indicate that if the country can get up to 80% of its adult men circumcised, they could observe a substantial decline in HIV transmission. I visited one of several mobile sites that enabled Swaziland and PEPFAR to quickly expand access to circumcision. I visited a rural clinic where PEPFAR is working to train and support nurses so that they can initiate people on antiretroviral therapy, a step that will help expand access to therapy in the country. I also had the opportunity to meet with many current Peace Corps volunteers, most of whom are assigned to HIV prevention and education and are doing great work in very rural communities to support community level efforts to educate about HIV, promote HIV testing and access to care, and support people living with HIV. In fact, it was with a Peace Corps volunteer that I met a most impressive woman who is an outspoken peer educator and advocate. Despite very strong stigma facing people living with HIV, everyone in her community knows her status and she is doing important work to support other people living with HIV and bring people into care. One of the truisms I see as I reflect on the work on the ground in Swaziland is how similar are the challenges in the United States. We have made enormous progress in responding to the epidemic at home, but we still struggle with access to prevention and care services, we must still do more to decrease stigma and discrimination, and as in Swaziland, the engagement and leadership of people living with HIV is a core ingredient of a successful response. Despite the overwhelming scope of the epidemic in Swaziland, I left feeling encouraged. There is strong leadership by senior government officials; the Ministry of Health estimates the country has achieved roughly 70% coverage on antiretroviral therapy for people for whom this is clinically indicated -- which is very respectable progress. I also met a broad range of skilled and committed Americans with critical expertise who are doing really important work to foster partnerships with Swazis and collaborate on a range of prevention and care issues. I also left with a memory of going back to Nsongweni High School where I was a science teacher so many years ago. They welcomed me back in grand style with a program of traditional dancers and a choir and I was given an opportunity to address the students and meet with the headmistress (my former colleague) and the teachers. I love that community and that tiny country on the other side of the world, and I am proud that the United States is actively engaged in their fight against HIV/AIDS. Jeffrey S.

Pacific Rubiales Executives Said to Plan Share Purchase
Cristiane Lucchesi, Andrew Willis and Nacha CattanA group of Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. executives hired Banco Itau BBA SA and Citigroup Inc. to arrange a loan and seek partners for a possible management buyout, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter.
The plan is a defensive move after Alfa SAB, the Mexican auto parts and petrochemical company, raised its Pacific Rubiales shareholding more than 20 times in just over two months, the two people said asking not to be named because talks are private. They declined to specify the size of the loan, which is being arranged with other banks, or how many additional shares the executives would buy. The stock price surged today.
Itau, Citigroup and Alfa declined to comment. Pacific Rubiales Chief Executive Officer Ronald Pantin didn't respond to an e-mailed request for comment or answer telephone calls.
"The company hasn't hired Itau and Citi for this transaction," Pacific Rubiales Vice-President for Corporate Affairs Federico Restrepo said yesterday. "Personally, I haven't signed any contract with Itau and Citi regarding a decision to buy shares. I don't know if any other vice president has, but we are not grouped together for this."
Alfa's holding in Pacific Rubiales, Colombia's biggest oil producer after Ecopetrol SA, rose to 14 percent from about 10 percent when it disclosed the stake on May 20, according to Canada's System of Electronic Disclosure by Insiders or SEDI. While Alfa describes the share purchases as a "financial investment," the San Pedro Garza Garcia, Mexico-based company's actions boost the chances of a takeover, according to Monex Casa de Bolsa. Pacific trades in Toronto and Bogota.
Mexico Opportunities
Alfa is already the largest shareholder in Pacific Rubiales after Lazard Ltd., which has 19 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Capital Group Companies Inc. is the third largest with 11 percent, the data show.
Pacific Rubiales, which has a $6 billion market value, is looking at opportunities in Mexico and hired Bank of America Corp. to review options for its midstream assets. The company, Latin America's largest non-state oil producer, hasn't been approached by a potential buyer, CEO Pantin said on May 13 during an investor event in New York.
Mexico broke its 75-year state monopoly on crude production last year with constitutional amendments that grant companies the right to drill with government-owned Petroleos Mexicanos or on their own. Alfa executives said July 15 that after they study the ensuing regulations they will "assemble the right structure to pursue those opportunities. Pacific Rubiales investment could be part of that structure."
Share Rally
Alfa's purchase of Pacific Rubiales stock is a financial investment that may go up or down depending on markets, the performance of Pacific Rubiales or the economy, spokesman Enrique Flores said May 21.
Pacific Rubiales gained 5.7 percent to C$22.03 at the close in Toronto today. The shares have advanced 30 percent in the past six months compared with an average gain among 15 peers tracked by Bloomberg of 9.6 percent.
The company is run by ex-Petroleos de Venezuela SA executive Pantin who left in 2000 as then-President Hugo Chavez stepped up control of the state company. Pantin was head of the services unit at PDVSA, where he worked with Rubiales President Jose Francisco Arata. Pantin and Arata co-founded the company in 2008 along with Miguel De la Campa and Serafino Iacono.
Pacific Rubiales directors own 5.8 million shares, or about a 2 percent stake, according to data compiled by SEDI.

Pujols' deadline changes season's tune
Castrovince: Pujols' deadline changes season's tune
All it did was serve to widely spread the belief -- at a time when the focus should be on optimism for the new season ahead -- that the game's greatest player is willing to leave the team he's come to represent for greener (pun intended) pastures. Pujols' self-imposed deadline might have been set with the intention of keeping his contract situation from becoming a distraction, but that's just what it is and just what it will be throughout the season.
At year's end, Pujols has every right to pursue his market value and/or what he deems to be his best chance to contend for a World Series title. He's certainly earned it, especially after pulling in less than his true market value over the past decade. But if Pujols thinks the questions about his contract status -- posed to him, his manager and his teammates -- will cease now that the deadline has passed and position players are reporting to camp in Jupiter, Fla., he's dreaming. This was, is and will be a major story, both in St. Louis and the national media. Furthermore, the daunting deadline served to divide the fan base between those who now view Pujols as representative of the supposed greed ruining professional sports and those who believe the Cardinals are crazy for not meeting his demands. Again, this is a time when everybody on board with the Cards -- either officially or from a rooting standpoint -- should be embracing the season ahead, not agonizing over doomsday scenarios.Highest-paid players in the game
Player | Team | Season(s) | Salary |
Nolan Ryan | HOU | 1980 | $1.17M |
Dave Winfield | NYY | 1982-84 | $2.4M |
Eddie Murray | BAL | 1985-88 | $2.7M |
Orel Hershiser | LAD | 1989 | $2.76M |
Frank Viola | MIN/NYM | 1989 | $2.76M |
Jose Canseco | OAK | 1990 | $4.7M* |
Roger Clemens | BOS | 1991 | $5.38M |
Ryne Sandberg | CHC | 1992 | $7.1M |
Barry Bonds | SF | 1993-95 | $7.29M |
Ken Griffey Jr. | SEA | 1996 | $8.5M |
Albert Belle | CWS | 1997 | $11M |
Pedro Martinez | BOS | 1998 | $12.5M |
Kevin Brown | LAD | 1999-2000 | $15M |
Alex Rodriguez | TEX/NYY | 2000-07 | $25.2M |
Alex Rodriguez | NYY | 2007-10 | $27.5M |
You don't get to be a player of Pujols' stature without supreme focus, so this distraction likely won't affect his performance. If anything, the fact that he's potentially angling for the richest contract in the history of the game could and should motivate him all the more.
But this deadline has created an unnecessary -- possibly even incorrect -- theme to the 2011 season. Now, the focus will be that 2011 will be No. 5's last season in Cardinals colors. And the public perception of Pujols is shifting from that of a franchise face who cares about the St. Louis community to just another money-hungry mercenary looking to cash in. Fair or not, accurate or not, that's what this deadline accomplished. In reality, without being privy to the conversations that went on between the Cardinals and Pujols' representatives the past few weeks and without knowing the full extent of what it would take to make Pujols happy and how far the Cards would go to make him happy, there's really no telling if these talks are as over as they appear. If the Cards suddenly raise the ante later this spring or even later this season with a proposal that they believe would satisfy his demands, you can't tell me Pujols wouldn't at least mull it over. He might have been underpaid, relative to others in the game with lesser statistical triumphs, for the majority of his career, but he at least owes the Cards that much. His deadline, from that perspective, might be meaningless. On the other hand, if the two sides are so far apart with no reasonable hope of getting a deal done before free agency, then Pujols, who has 10-and-5 rights, owes his team something else -- the option of trading him. Obviously, this scenario would require the Cards to be out of the National League Central race at midsummer (a scenario neither side wants to consider at this juncture). But if that scenario does indeed present itself, then the Cardinals ought to have the opportunity to consider trade proposals from contending teams so that they can lose their living legend and have more than just a couple future Draft picks to show for it. It's unfortunate that last point had to be made at this time. As fans of the game, we value baseball's traditions and we increasingly value those rare players who commit to one club for the length of their careers. The only ones not rooting for Pujols to remain with the Cards are those who have a selfish (and realistic) interest in him joining their team of choice. But the Pujols-imposed deadline has made such a topic fair game. Despite his intentions, this story won't go away. Because now that his course is a little more clear, the 2011 season, from its outset, will be made to serve, rightly or wrongly, as a countdown to the end of Pujols' Cardinals career.Anthony Castrovince is a reporter for MLB.com.

The attorney general's office filed a motion asking U.S. District Judge Kristine Baker to stay the proceedings in the lawsuit filed by two same-sex couples challenging a 2004 constitutional amendment and earlier state law banning gay marriage. The AG's office later filed a similar motion before the state Supreme Court, which is also weighing the state's ban.
In the filing, the AG's office cited Utah's appeal filed a day earlier with the U.S. Supreme Court asking it to uphold the state's gay marriage ban. A federal appeals court in Denver ruled in June that states cannot deny same-sex couples the fundamental right to marry. The ruling upheld a December decision by a federal judge overturning Utah's ban.
State officials said potential involvement by the U.S. Supreme Court could make the Arkansas case moot.
"Without a stay of these proceedings, the parties and the court will suffer the hardship of unnecessary and unwarranted litigation, and the parties and court could suffer the hardship of a ruling quickly reversed or modified by the United States Supreme Court," the filing said. The state argued the stay wouldn't hurt the Arkansas couples' case since it could still be taken up if justices won't consider the Utah appeal.
If the Supreme Court decides to take the Utah case, it will be the first time the top court considers gay marriage since justices last year struck down part of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Since that decision, gay marriage advocates have won more than 20 victories in federal courts.
The state later Wednesday morning filed a similar motion before the state Supreme Court, which is also weighing whether to uphold Arkansas' gay marriage ban. A Pulaski County judge earlier this year struck down the state's gay marriage ban, which prompted more than 500 same-sex couples to wed before the ruling was suspended. The motion before the state Supreme Court also asks justices to suspend proceedings while the nation's high court considers Utah's appeal.
Gay marriage is legal in 19 states and the District of Columbia.

"I learned so much and really feel that what I've learned will assist me in helping students with specific needs for reading and language improvement. I have more ways to support teachers, not only through assessment, but next steps for targeting areas for student assistance and practice."
"The practicing we did before actually administering the assessments to our emerging and struggling readers was helpful, and I was able to do the test administration much more smoothly. Everything we've been learning came together in this course."
