from the article:

Dr. Tania Crombet, director of clinical research for CIM emphasized that Cuban scientists are investigating CIMAVAX EGF for other epidemoid (solid) cancers and have demonstrated its effectiveness in cases of neoplasia of the lung, head, neck, brain, stomach, breast, rectum, prostrate, cervix, bladder, ovary and pancreas.

I'd also like to mention how pleased I was with the Boston Massacre last evening. Go Rays!

 

I've got a question for you: Would you rather freeze to death or die in a fire?

Never could get used to the taste.

I used to drown myself in espresso, because it was a shot and goes down to quick to taste, or load it up with other crap I don’t really want to drink anymore.

Bad enough I seem to be quitting everything else.

He's recruited pretty well, all thing considered

the guys he’s gotten have been very good, now he just needs a little depth to fill out the roster. I don’t think UW is all that far away.

At least the Huskies are out of the police sheets.

And are getting clear of NCAA sanctions. I may be wrong but that’s part of why Willingham was brought in here. Same with Paul Wulff at WSU. And his ability to recruit. I hope like hell Wulff gets at least 5 years to build and field his own team.

I feel bad for him in a way.

“Come in here and clean up our mess, then when the program is ready to get off it’s knees… uhhh… you’re gone.”

That’s how the conversation plays in my head anyway. Kind of wonder is Riggleman will wind up in a similar situation. He handles the press and cleans up after Silva’s mouth pretty decently.

Woohoo, no John Hart! And no Al Aliva says Rotoworld:
According to the Detroit Fress Press, the Tigers denied the Mariners’ request to interview assistant general manager Al Avila for their GM job.
Avila was allowed to interview for the same job in 2003, but apparently the Tigers’ stance has changed since then. With Avila not an option and Chris Antonetti, David Forst and Jed Hoyer each pulling themselves out of the running, the Mariners may have narrowed their search to Jerry DiPoto, Kim Ng, Tony LaCava and Peter Woodfork.

"my wife" is possesive.

I don't actually care.

I think it’s kind of funny. I refer to people that way as well occasionally. Now if I’m sitting next to my fiancee and I’m on the phone, I’m probably not going to say “let me check with the fiancee”, but I might say “let me ask the boss”.

See, both have always bothered me.

“The boss” especially. It implies that there is no partnership. I don’t even care if it’s meant to be a joke, because it usually doesn’t turn out like one.

Now on the internet, it’s a little different, since we’re not going to use names. But in real life…names. It’s not that hard.

I'm the same way.

My wife hates the use of the word “partner”, but that’s the way we view it – if I’m not referring to her by name, it’s usually in jest and to her face.

It’s like code for "Honey, I’m about to make some plans that you probably won’t like, but they already bought tickets.

As for the other stuff, it’s always accompanied by a goofy face, usually sparks a minute of verbal sparring, and is pretty much our equivalent of TWSS. Just juvenile hijinks and good fun.

I'm tremendous fun to watch matches with

because unlike most of my English friends, I believe there are more default values to a game than “life” or “death”. I mock my own team as much as the opposition.

The challenge in Portland is finding a good place to watch; the one big English pub in town has an owner that doesn’t like football and only shows it grudgingly, so there’s no real atmosphere. Which is annoying.

Seriously, where do you go?

I’m assuming Horse Brass is the “big English pub” you’re referring to?

I watched a US match at the Bitter End; certainly no shortage of atmosphere there, but that was sort of a special case.

Where would I go if I found myself in PDX on a Saturday morning and was hangover-free enough to watch the match?

They roll in a big one for Saturday matches

and put it in front of the dartboards. But again, not great atmosphere – they do have matches, though.

As far as where to go, the Bitter End’s good, and there’s a couple sports bars downtown that will show them, but if it were me I’d go with the Bitter End.

Oh, and as far as where I go?

I usually go to the couch and watch Fox Sports World on my big TV. But for WC/Euro matches I’ll go to the Bitter End, or if I’m at work (downtown) I’ll go, of all places, to the Marriott sports bar – it’s kind of bland, but it’s no smoking (which won’t be an issue after Jan 1) and there’s lots of TV’s.

but a lot of the people that listen to NPR seem to adopt this pseudo-intellectual stance that really annoys the crap out of me – people seem to think that if it comes from NPR it must be The Truth, when what comes out of NPR is no more true or not true than what comes out of any other media outlet.

Man I love Trader Joe's.

After spending a ton of money, while putting away the groceries I realized I don’t have to go to the store for another 3 weeks, and breaking down the bill it’s awesomely reasonable.

Community, that's it. Kind of reminds me of Hills Brothers.

I’m thinking of one of the few coffee shops I’ve been able to find in Baton Rouge, Sunshine Coffee Company. Big sun on the sign. They just shut down the Starbucks. I usually grab a cup across the street from LSU. It surprises me most of the students I’ve spoken to don’t know Robert Penn Warren was a professor there.

Not that it’s a bad car, I just wanted to look around a bit.

Actually that’s not true. Honestly this makes the whole thing easier. I had no idea how many damn cars there are out there in the class we’re looking for, and sorting through all the different models and researching them was getting on my nerves.

“Due to the intense public interest in the failure of Washington Mutual, I want to assure our community that federal law enforcement is examining activities at the bank to determine if any federal laws were violated,” Seattle U.S. Attorney Jeff Sullivan said in a written statement.

I was one of the first 60 employees at a (now huge internet startup).

During my three years there, the went through VPs, COOs, and the like as if they were Kleenex. It’s simply the way these things go. The higher up you get, the more expendable you seemingly are; especially throughout the first years of initial growth. From there, those high-ranking company officials moved on to equally challenging positions at other companies, only to be replaced by others who had either been fired from their previous position, or left on their own accord.

Much like the Jackson family and 2/3 of Hollywood, swapping heads is common and often necessary.

In my limited experience with these things

if you do go the art school route, make sure that you know going in what kind of shots you want and do not want. One of the best things about our wedding photog was that he has done it for years, so he knows the general flow of a wedding and what people are going to want to see later; a student or somebody (and we talked to a couple PNCA kids about doing photography for us) will be more likely to shoot what THEY think is important, which may not be what YOU think is important.

So, if you talk to art school kids, make sure you have a rough idea of what kind of pictures you want and the ability to articulate that vision as clearly as possible.

Yes.

I met with the bride beforehand, and she had a list prepared of shots that she wanted. We discussed and I took notes.

I'm not mass-experienced...

But it’s been REALLY helpful for me to get a shot list out to my clients a few weeks before the ceremony. I have a general checklist that I give and room for them to add/change, etc.

Of course, I’m very picky about the clients whose weddings I photograph, too. I generally like to have some sort of knowledge of the people involved. The last wedding I shot, I didn’t really know the people all that well when I agreed to shoot their wedding, so I gave them an “engagement session” to see if we could mutually work for each other. Made all the difference in the world for me.

Now if I could only not be at work all the time, and have some energy in the evenings again to finish processing the ~1500 shots we took (I had an assistant/trainee). And a faster computer to process them as well…

I've always felt that when you go into a situation knowing what the agreement is, don't bitch when you don't hold up your end.

If someone has a valid reason for their movies coming back late, I’m more than willing to listen and in most cases kill the fee. But it’s not fair to people who are responsible about returning their movies on time if people who do can just bitch a little bit and not have to pay.

I'll do the same with people and their rent payments.

But when you’re late every month, and complain about the fees every time, I have very little sympathy.

It just bugs me because hey, I'm not the most responsible guy in the world.

I used to rack up late fees at a video store. But I paid them. That’s the price of being kind of flaky about these things. People that understand that and never complain about their late fees find that I’m not as ana; about making sure they pay every cent. Funny how that works.

Isn't though?

My favorite line is: “I had no ideas the late fees were that much!!”

To which my response usually is: “The late fee amounts are specified in section 4-C of your lease agreement, would you like another copy of your lease?”

Or my other favorite is when I tell people they can contact their property manager to see if they are willing to waive all or part of the fees and they say “my property manager is a jerk, there’s no point in even asking them”.

So if you know the manager is a stickler for being on time, why are you surprised when you have to pay late fees, especially when you are almost half a month late?!?

I have very little leeway when it comes to late fees unfortunately. “Technically” I’m not really authorized to waive anything unless it is an accounting error, but I’ve been given “wink, wink, nudge, nudge” authority by the owners to use my best judgement if need be.
