International Visitors
Since 1950, the Council's International Visitor Program has fostered meaningful connections between Oregon communities and leaders worldwide. The Council's visitor program annually hosts more than 500 emerging world leaders. These rising stars in key fields are connected for business exchanges, professional development and hands-on experience with local/regional business and community leaders. Because of Portland and Oregon's strong culture of volunteerism and civic innovation, visionary sustainability and environmental policy, progressive governance practices and a thriving NGO/nonprofit community, the region has in recent years become a magnet for international visitors seeking professional development exchange. Aside from professional hosting, Oregonians have the opportunity to connect with these visitors and become citizen diplomats by hosting visitors in their home for dinner, or even overnight.
Watch this video featuring 5-time World Figure Skating Champion and Senior Advisor to the U.S. Department of State, Michelle Kwan, as she shares how to "Expand Your World" by becoming a citizen diplomat.
2012 Year-In-Review
579: Total Number of Visitors
129: Number of Countries Represented
220: Number of International Visitors who were Hosted for Dinner
45: Number of International Visitors who were Hosted on Overnight Programs
840: Number of Professional Resources who met with International Visitors
Most Represented Countries in 2012: Argentina, Belarus, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, Egypt, Georgia, Iraq, Israel, Japan, People's Republic of China, Russia, Turkey, and Yemen.
A huge Thank You goes out to all of our Professional, Dinner, and Overnight Hosts who, as true Citizen Diplomats, enable the success of this program. We could not do it without you!
Hosting Opportunities
Have you wondered if the challenges you face in your profession were unique to the United States, and maybe to Oregon? Would you like to speak with leaders in your profession from all over the world? We constantly seek new professional resources to represent Oregon's vast and diverse professional workforce.
Nothing sets the table for mutual understanding better than a shared meal and shared experience. Hosting International Visitors for dinner is an excellent way to exercise everyday diplomacy as an ambassador for Oregon. Hosting international visitors in your home is one of the many benefits of membership in the World Affairs Council of Oregon.
Share your home and build lifelong connections! The Council regularly offers overnight home-stay hosting opportunities that provide international visitors with an American home experience. Hosting opportunities range from three nights to five weeks depending on the program.

The Florida Gators have owned the Tennessee Volunteers for quite some time, but to continue their dominance the Gators must slow down the SEC's hottest passing offense.
Vols quarterback Tyler Bray can make all the throws, but it helps he is throwing to wide receiver Justin Hunter.
Hunter is coming off a three-touchdown game against Georgia State and has the size (6-foot-4, 200 pounds) and skills to dominate anyone in the SEC that lines up across from him.
"Justin Hunter would be a tough matchup in the NFL, much less college football," CBS color analyst Gary Danielson said.
Danielson compares Hunter to former SEC studs Julio Jones (Alabama) and A.J. Green (Georgia), who were top 10 picks in the draft, and Rueben Randell, a second-round selection out of LSU.
Hunter is sure to cause some problems for a Florida secondary lacking a big, physical shutdown cornerback to match up with him. The Gators top corners are Marcus Roberson (6-0, 178), Jaylen Watkins (6-0, 187) and Loucheiz Purifoy (6-1, 189).
The Gators cannot put all their attention on Hunter, either.
Cordarrelle Patterson, a 6-3, 205-pound junior college transfer, has been clocked at 10.3 in the 100 meters and scored a touchdown on a 67-yard reverse in a season-opening win against N.C. State.
"It's like being a kid in a candy shop with two guys like that to throw to," said Tennessee quarterback Tyler Bray, who leads the SEC in passing yards (643) and touchdowns (six).
It's a headache for an opposing defense.
"When you play a lot of press and bump [coverage] like we do, you want some guys who have some length when there are some, what we call 50-50 balls, that are up in the air and can go to either guy," Florida defensive coordinator Dan Quinn said. "That's why with those two guys in particular, Roberson and Purifoy, with the length they have, we'll certainly get a lot of work at that.
"Both of them (Hunter and Patterson) are real physical guys and accomplished players that know how to go get the ball, and certainly it's a matchup our guys are looking forward to as well."
But it could have tougher for the Gators and defenses around the league this season. Hunter was projected to be Tennessee's No. 2 wide receiver, behind Da'Rick Rogers, who was dismissed from the team in August after failing multiple drug tests.
Rogers led the SEC with 67 catches last season and was second with 1,040 receiving yards.
The Gators faced Hunter a season ago in The Swamp, but did not get a chance to see much of him.
While trying to make a leaping catch on the fourth play of the teams' annual matchup, Hunter twisted in mid-air and landed awkwardly to tear his ACL.
The Gators rolled to a 30-7 lead, but struggled to hold on against Tennessee's passing game – officials whistled Florida for pass interference six times – in an eventual 33-23 win.
Tennessee might have come closer to completing its comeback had Hunter had been on the field. He is eager for another chance, this time in Knoxville.
"I'm ready, just ready to get out there and do what I didn't have a chance to do last year," he said.

Comments about Womens Saucony ProGrid Hurricane 13 Running Shoe: First pain-free run I've had in a year. I'm a big Hurricane fan, but this shoe is the best Hurricane yet. It's light weight, comfortable and supportive. I've been running marathons for 5 years and this is by far my favorite shoe.

As they started to wear, they became my go to for a comfortable casual shoe. I have extreme pronation and very flat feet, and these have been the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned.

A few long-requested features and bug fixes around the place. Changes to chat colouring after the complaints of it being too grey. Limitations to usernames in IRC. Toggles for gameplay elements.
Things I think people will ask: Q: Why can't I change my IRC name anymore??? This is stupid! Change it back!!! A: People were abusing IRC connection name changes. You can still use a suffix on your osu! username if you wish. The number of people out there that use IRC connections is very low, and I did not see it wise to keep supporting fully customisable usernames considering the primary focus of osu!: a game, not an IRC server. Q: I have to play a map once to disable stuff? This is stupid! I'm just gonna continue deleting files from my maps!! A: This will be considered cheating in the near future (and at that point will be recorded). I would highly recommend you stop deleting files as it will save yourself the burden of downloading the missing files again when checks are properly implemented. If you disagree with having to play through the song once, please leave the community quietly, as I will not be budging from this standpoint (hell, I have already dropped most of my personal opinion on this issue to allow these toggles to exist). Q: Do I need to download the stuff I deleted from map directories? A: No, this will be handled for you in a future update. But please stop deleting things now. Q: Chat colours still look stupid. I can't tell normal users from supporters. A: Keep giving feedback on this. I will tweak further if there is more push for it. Q: OMG I FOUND SOMETHIGN AWESOME A: PM me; I'll give a prize to the first person who finds this . frans_niko wins Q: Something isn't working A: Report it here Known issues (will be fixed soon): * Usernames can get confused with IRC clients and osu! clients. Please relog if this happens. |

One question: will osu! (in future updates) prevent you from playing certain beatmap unless you have all beatmap elements? I don't want to get myself into trouble because I already have deleted blank OSB files and bundled Thumbs.db file out from my song folder (stopped doing so since that post of yours).

peppy wrote: It will restore files automatically once this is enforced. I appreciate the toggles. Why are you so adamant about forcing people to play with skins and storyboards, many of which are EXTREMELY distracting and otherwise hurt people's ability to play the game competitively? My skin has semi-transparent hircircles, which blend in to bright backgrounds, making it much harder to read on anything but a black background. And many skins have large hitbursts, which obscure notes quite a bit, especially during streams. Forcing me to deal with either of those reduces my ability to play well on many maps. It could potentially keep me from being able to pass a map I could pass with the elements disabled. |
Rhythm Rookie 4 posts |
I personally think that you should only have to play through a song once to ignore storyboards, skins, and hitsounds instead of playing through each individual map. If they're not to your taste and you've already played through the song to realize that, then you shouldn't have to play through all of the difficulties once to remove them from their respective maps, no?
A very nice batch, though. Thanks peppy! Last edited by omniwynd on , edited 1 time in total.

Hot Rod 'Liner, a couple more ride picsRe: Hot Rod 'Linerits lookin great ! that head badge idea is awesome !!
The cost of my desire, to sleep now in the fire....
Re: Hot Rod 'Liner Updated 17May11Thanks you guys for the comments and support.
I needed it last weekend with the pain of putting the sealed BB into this frame. First there was the tube trimming that had been done. Then I had to go to demel for a few hours to get them to fit with out tension. I'm so not proud of the amount I had to do so I'm not going to post a pic. It's not like it will be dangerous but it's kinda hacky. I glad it will be covered up. In the pic, I still have the disposable installation 1/4" screws installed but they came out after all the trial fittings. I'm almost ready to dump the used cheap Sugino crankset. I carefully measured and calculated the width I wanted and ordered a 103mm Sugino BB. Unfortuneately 103mm is too short to fit the Maxx design so it bottoms out. Then I bought a FSA BB at 118mm. Now it looks too long, a bit goofy and the chainline may be off. Also the FSA (cheaper than the Sugino by half) doesn't have the rotating thread removable. So I have to screw it in the one side then line both threads up and screw them both in simultaneously (without stripping the aluminum adaptor threads). Maybe there is another method of installing into the adaptor before the adaptor's installation but that a pain too. So a LBS has Origin 8 singlespeed crank sets on sale (32% off) so it would be almost as cheap (and less painful) than getting another BB. The Origin 8's look really good and they take the 103mm BB. I'll have to monkey around with the gearing but that's doable (Sugino 52T and Origin 44T (but has bigger chainring options and I have a 13T hub gear). I weighed the bare frame and it 9lbs.
Hot Rod 'Liner Update 21May11Wow, People are getting done already and the bikes look fantastic. This is so much fun.
I plan to have several revisions and then pick one (with your gracious input). I finally got the bottom bracket in. I used the 103 mm and bought the Origin 8 crankset I mentioned earlier. I had to flip the gear to the other side to get the chainline a little better. I think It looks ok. It spins very smooth. I love Big and Littles but I got an idea. Maybe it could be a relative term. These are both 32mm but I think I could go 37 and 28. I really like the way a larger than 26" wheel looks on certain forks. The top of the tire is even or higher than the bottom of the fork tube. So I mocked up it up with my Felt wheels to see. What do you think? It will have to take some planning. And my credit card already got smoking. We'll see... I put a kinda white with silver metal flake seat from a 2010 Schwinn Racer on it for trial. I'm not sure yet. The chain guard is a repop my wife picked up from the used section of a LBS. It's shiny. Then I switched gears Thinking Big (27.5) and little (26") just for fun. The 37mm fit in the back. I wonder if there is a 29er slick out there that might fit. I lost the look I was after but I had to try. It was worth checking out. I tried a splash of color with the seat to see what that might look like. "S" could stand for Spaceliner but probably not. I bought some NOS "matching" grips but they turned out too purple (versus metal-flake fire engine red like the seat). I flipped the handle bars up and I kinda like it better. I really like the look when other people flip them though. There was some discussion of the radically cut handlebars I mocked up previously. I like the look too to but the side shot doesn't tell the whole story. There is very little grip area. I'll try them again once I cut the fork threads down. It depends if I want them Show or Go. I'm glad the difference is only 5 minutes apart. The fork is next. That will drop all the previous handlebar height by about 2 inches so I hope it won't look weird. See Ya
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerWow! Now THAT's a transformation... All that shiny metal is really beautiful... I like the deep v wheels. But I also like the combo with the smaller front wheel... What are the ERTO or ISO sizes of the tires? There's quite some choice in tires nowadays... Schwalbe seems to have the most choice in retro-esque rubber in a lot of sizes...
The radically chopped bars... the amount of room you have to grip the bars is only relative. How many touringbikers with dropped handlebars where actually gripping the drops? Not many. They grip the upper part of the bars just next to the stem. That's even shorter than the bars from your initial idea. But it's up to you to decide if it'll look good... I didn't realize uptill now you were going this much for a roadbike look. Absolutely love it! Keep on doing what you do.

Re: Hot Rod 'LinerMplsCoaster
This thing is looking sick! I dig all the ideas you got going here, the chain guard is cool! The three pc crank turned out great! worth all the effort! I like the shorty "hipsters" bars I like the flat bars also Schwalbe tires have some slicks in 700 and 29er. they will make the credit card smoke http://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires ... es/citizen Keep up the great work!

Re: Hot Rod 'Liner Update 21May11
I like the way the front wheel looks on the fork in your first mockup, but I kinda like this second mockup look better overall... The bigger wheel in the rear helps bring the long seatpost into better proportions, and with the lost 2" of steerer tube I think the upright handlebars will work better. REI actually carries some 29" & 26" city tires in the same style, maybe they could add to the big/little look? http://www.rei.com/product/793100/serfa ... re-29-x-20 http://www.rei.com/product/793099/serfa ... re-26-x-15 Very nice looking bike so far, and good job on the BB conversion!
Re: Hot Rod 'Linerthese 29er's 28's and 700c are aall the same size ther ISO designation is 622mm
The tire industry makes all kinds of slick's and semi slicks in this size check out schwalbe's site.
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerHey Guys,
Thanks a lot for your comments. I now see some stuff I hadn't earlier. The rear tire size is limited by 28" from the axle. I don't think I have the skills and the energy to extend it like some of other great bikes have. Herr_Rudolf Thanks for the Schwalbe thought. I have some on a Royce Union that are exceptional. The rear tire size I have on it now is 37 and I have to deflate it to get it on. The felt wheels are just for mockup. I don't like the machined surface. It changes the look. I can't do the fixie of the felt wheels any more so no brakes otherwise. So the first vote for the 26 in front. I found a 1.3" to match the 700 in the back. A very different look than original. But I had to see. I like the look of your bike with the Tall and Smallers . If the stuff in the mail doesn't fit this bike, I've got a few bikes they might Thanks for you continued support for the bars. I agree about putting my hands near the stems. I usually do that so I bought these bars: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=40277 They're nice and wide. Perfect for blasting around the lakes. I'll be looking in the mountain bike section for something with slightly wider vertical area (that I can chop). I'm glad you mentioned the road bike comment. I didn't see it before. It's not what I originally intended. I still like the smooth rolling fattie that I had on earlier. I have to think about for a while.. Shiny metal does look good, doesn't it... Skipton Thanks for the links. They have a 45s (1.75)but I don't think they'll fit. I could try 40s. I already know that my 26 x 1.95 fits perfectly and gives me the hot rod look. I don't know if I can keep my original intention on what I have coming. I'll have to see their limitations of width. That's the 3rd time I been called hipster. I guess if it looks cool then its alright... Three-Wire 2nd vote for the small wheel/front tire. Do you think it fits with the fork? I saw somebody else customize their fork and the tighter fit look great. It's beyond my skill level. Thanks to the link for rei. They have a big sale, practically giving them away, I had to buy them... I hear that one a lot... Some thing me and the misses have in common. I'm glad you like the one set of bars up. See my link previously for the new Typhoon bars. They don't have the same effect upside down. Especially with the stem, even though the Porteur's are kinda shallow. I do like other's bars down though. Skrufryder Thanks for the info and the standards. I measured again and 29ers might be out. I'll check them out closer. So go mock ups.. I'm torn about the (Hot Rod versus Transformed Road bike) look but I'll see better after I get a few things. I'm gonna work on the fork now. I'll see what that changes. Sorry Guys about the seat post, it wasn't put in far enough for riding. I'm lazy with my mockups. The frame is a 18.5 so I noticed earlier that it needed less than the Typhoon (18"). Thanks for all the input. It helps. MplsCoaster

From one fellow Chromie to another, I think this bike was pay back on myself for saying for years: "I like the chrome valve covers on that engine, that will make it go faster" Well, I got the fork cut and dry fit with new races and bearings. It worked out easier than expected. I took a bunch of pics because I thought I might have an issue with putting a Japanese fork in an old American bike but no problems. I have to do some more work on the axle clearance but that's just gonna take some time. So I mocked it up and conceptually, I built the bike (pretty close) to the bike I sketched. Everything needs to be taken back apart and greased and/or loctited yet. The seat post clamp can be dropped further on the tube so the rack could be more horizontal. The seat is not right yet, it's just a stand in for now. Its supposed to be silver metal flake but looks too white. I stole my new VO West Bank bars off the Typhoon because they were what I drew initially. The head badge/grill idea still needs more work. Clay would work much easier than foil so that's next. The seat post is still under construction. I used a suggestion from one of the guys here on an aluminum round stock (7/8") and worked with my machinist friend to get a modern clamp attached. I found that some mtb seatposts had a cast top inserted into a tube. You can pick them up used for under $10. I cut the tube off and the cast piece was 7/8". So my colleague turned down the cast piece and drilled out the end of the tube. It still has to be welded and I might try to drill out the solid aluminum stock yet. Too bad duct tape doesn't work for much more than poser pics. So Including the the chain, the whole thing came in at 29 lbs. Not too bad. I'm still considering multispeeds but not sure if I want to add a bunch more weight for gears. I guess I'll have to ride it first. Of course, I may need a little more air in the tires too. I like the way it looks but the set up looks like a lot of my other bikes. End of Rev1, Hot Rod edition... But like a little kid, I don't want it to be over... So I thought about how I got some good feedback on the "Hipster Bars" I cut. Again, I liked them but I needed to actually ride the bike so I started working on Hipster bars 2. A guy at work graciously gave me some bars form his Redline 925. He hated them so gave them to me for free It's easier to cut up some thing free. The black paint comes off but I don't have a big wire wheel at home so please use your imagination. So here is how they looked before the cut and after: I like the cut angle and will probably leave the inside color or change it for a highlight. I put them on to see how they would feel with the fork cut down and not too bad. I can stick the stem out a little more if I want them higher. My wife got in the act and helped with this pic. There is enough room to "get a grip" now. So we'll see how the next revision of this bike goes. I'm still waiting impatiently for the mail man. I'm planning on something that has a little more "wow factor". So many other people have bikes here that make my eyes pop. I hoping the next Rev to do that. I also realized that I don't have to choose setups: Hot Rod or Transformed Road bike because I have another 'Liner frame downstairs. One will be for the competition and the other will be for my own fun. What do you think so far?
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerLove the monochromatic look.
On the bars,.... keep in mind that this is a photo contest. If you think the hipster bars look the best use them for your photos and switch them out for cruising, that's my plan. My bike looks much better with flipped bars but my back would be dead in 5 minutes! Killin' threads since 2000................X
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerIm not in to the cut handlebars but I love the rest of it. This looks great.
Cruisers are Cool, But Roadsters Rule
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerAll the chrome looks great!
I like the black bars.....Keep the great work going! Chicago TailDraggers 2013

Re: Hot Rod 'LinerHey Guys,
Thanks for all the early comments. I need to read them again to respond. I forgot to put a 3d shot in. Tell me what you think of the pattern of the rack picking up the multiple top tubes. Does it just make it look busy or does it work? Sorry about the weeds but that was the only place late in the day to take the sunshine shining off the chrome.Shiny Rev2 parts will be arriving on Thursday. See Ya MplsCoaster
Re: Hot Rod 'LinerI like the rack on that bike. I think it echoes all the frame tubes nicely.

It is estimated that 7,060 men and women (2,630 men and 4,430 women) will be diagnosed with and 880 men and women will die of cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum in 20131 .
The following information is based on NCI's SEER Cancer Statistics Review2 .Use the links on this page to learn more about each statistic type:
Incidence & Mortality
SEER Incidence
From 2006-2010, the median age at diagnosis for cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum was 60 years of age3 . Approximately 0.0% were diagnosed under age 20; 1.0% between 20 and 34; 7.8% between 35 and 44; 25.1% between 45 and 54; 26.7% between 55 and 64; 18.7% between 65 and 74; 14.2% between 75 and 84; and 6.4% 85+ years of age.
The age-adjusted incidence rate was 1.7 per 100,000 men and women per year. These rates are based on cases diagnosed in 2006-2010 from 18 SEER geographic areas.
Race/Ethnicity | Male | Female |
All Races | 1.5 per 100,000 men | 1.9 per 100,000 women |
White | 1.5 per 100,000 men | 2.1 per 100,000 women |
Black | 1.9 per 100,000 men | 1.6 per 100,000 women |
Asian/Pacific Islander | 0.5 per 100,000 men | 0.6 per 100,000 women |
American Indian/Alaska Native a | 1.4 per 100,000 women | |
Hispanic b | 1.0 per 100,000 men | 1.4 per 100,000 women |
US Mortality
From 2006-2010, the median age at death for cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum was 64 years of age4 . Approximately 0.0% died under age 20; 0.6% between 20 and 34; 5.8% between 35 and 44; 20.0% between 45 and 54; 24.9% between 55 and 64; 18.9% between 65 and 74; 18.3% between 75 and 84; and 11.4% 85+ years of age.
The age-adjusted death rate was 0.2 per 100,000 men and women per year. These rates are based on patients who died in 2006-2010 in the US.
Race/Ethnicity | Male | Female |
All Races | 0.2 per 100,000 men | 0.2 per 100,000 women |
White | 0.2 per 100,000 men | 0.3 per 100,000 women |
Black | 0.3 per 100,000 men | 0.2 per 100,000 women |
Asian/Pacific Islander | 0.1 per 100,000 men | 0.1 per 100,000 women |
American Indian/Alaska Native a | ||
Hispanic b | 0.1 per 100,000 men | 0.2 per 100,000 women |
Trends in Rates
Trends in rates can be described in many ways. Information for trends over a fixed period of time, for example 1996-2010, can be evaluated by the annual percentage change (APC) (See Fast Stats for trends over fixed time intervals) . If there is a negative sign before the number, the trend is a decrease; otherwise it is an increase. If there is an asterisk after the APC then the trend was significant, that is, one believes that it is beyond chance, i.e. 95% sure, that the increase or decrease is real over the period 1996-2010. If the trend is not significant, the trend is usually reported as stable or level. Joinpoint analyses can be used over a long period of time to evaluate when changes in the trend have occurred along with the APC which shows how much the trend has changed between each of the joinpoints.
Male and Female | Male | Female | |||
Trend | Period | Trend | Period | Trend | Period |
2.2* | 1975-2010 | 2.5* | 1975-2010 | 2.0* | 1975-2010 |
Male and Female | Male | Female | |||
Trend | Period | Trend | Period | Trend | Period |
38.6* | 1975-1980 | 42.2* | 1975-1980 | ||
1.7* | 1980-2010 | 1.7* | 1980-2010 |
Survival & Stage
Survival can be calculated by different methods for different purposes. The survival statistics presented here are based on relative survival , which measures the survival of the cancer patients in comparison to the general population to estimate the effect of cancer. The overall 5-year relative survival for 2003-2009 from 18 SEER geographic areas was 65.6%. Five-year relative survival by race and sex was: 61.7% for white men; 70.5% for white women; 48.3% for black men; 61.9% for black women.
Stage at Diagnosis | Stage Distribution (%) |
5-year Relative Survival (%) |
Localized (confined to primary site) | 49 | 79.6 |
Regional (spread to regional lymphnodes) | 31 | 59.8 |
Distant (cancer has metastasized) | 13 | 31.3 |
Unknown (unstaged) | 8 | 56.0 |
The stage distribution is based on Summary Stage 2000. (See Fast Stats for more detailed statistics)
Lifetime Risk
Based on rates from 2008-2010, 0.18% of men and women born today will be diagnosed with cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum at some time during their lifetime. This number can also be expressed as 1 in 553 men and women will be diagnosed with cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum during their lifetime. These statistics are called the lifetime risk of developing cancer. Sometimes it is more useful to look at the probability of developing cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum between two age groups. For example, 0.07% of men will develop cancer of the anus, anal canal, and anorectum between their 50th and 70th birthdays compared to 0.10% for women. (See Fast Stats for more detailed statistics, and Probability of Developing and Dying of Cancer for methodology)

SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975-2010, National Cancer Institute.

b Incidence and mortality data for American Indians/Alaska Natives is based on the CHSDA (Contract Health Service Delivery Area) counties.
- Annual percent change (APC)
- The average annual percent change over several years. The APC is used to measure trends or the change in rates over time. For information on how this is calculated, go to Trend Algortihms in the SEER*Stat Help system. The calculation involves fitting a straight line to the natural logarithm of the data when it is displayed by calendar year.
- Joinpoint analyses
- A statistical model for characterizing cancer trends which uses statistical criteria to determine how many times and when the trends in incidence or mortality rates have changed. The results of joinpoint are given as calendar year ranges, and the annual percent change (APC) in the rates over each period.
- Survival
- Survival examines how long after diagnosis people live. Cancer survival is measured in a number of different ways depending on the intended purpose.
- Relative survival
- A measure of net survival that is calculated by comparing observed (overall) survival with expected survival from a comparable set of people that do not have cancer to measure the excess mortality that is associated with a cancer diagnosis.
- Stage distribution
- Stage provides a measure of disease progression, detailing the degree to which the cancer has advanced. Two methods commonly used to determine stage are AJCC and SEER Summary Stage. The AJCC method (see Collaborative Staging Method) is more commonly used in the clinical settings, while SEER has strived to provide consistent definitions over time with their Local/Regional/Distant staging.
- Lifetime risk
- The probability of developing cancer in the course of one's lifespan. Lifetime risk may also be discussed in terms of the probability of developing or of dying from cancer. Based on cancer rates from 2008 to 2010, it was estimated that men had about a 44 percent chance of developing cancer in their lifetimes, while women had about a 38 percent chance.
- Probability of developing cancer
- The chance that a person will develop cancer in his/her lifetime.
- Prevalence
- The number of people who have received a diagnosis of cancer during a defined time period, and who are alive on the last day of that period. Most prevalence data in SEER is for limited duration because information on cases diagnosed before 1973 is not generally available.

Gun Bros Review: Battling bad guys and a buggy port
Seeing as how we haven't had a new Xbox Windows Phone game to review in a while, it's time to set our critical eyes on older releases that haven't been reviewed yet. Sometimes we miss a game because it's too terrible to endure (Babel Rising 3D), but on other occasions your favorite game reviewer has just been too tied up to review every single release.
With Gun Bros 2 due to hit iOS sometime soon, I've been inspired to put the original Gun Bros for Windows Phone through its paces. Is Gun Bros really one of the worst Xbox games on Windows Phone or just woefully misunderstood? Read on for our final verdict!
Mid-game loading screens use art of varying quality.
Each time players boot up Gun Bros, they will endure an amazingly long load time. The wait varies; I saw the game boot up in about 30 seconds once, but it usually takes about three minutes. It even took seven minutes once, causing my Lumia 920's screen to time out before the game even started.
Sometimes the game crashes during the loading process too… It's a real crapshoot. The protracted startup time seems to be due to Gun Bros' online connectivity. It will load much faster if you turn off your phone's internet connections. But that also disables some important features, so I tend to just leave the internet on, launch the game, and read a book until it starts. Seriously.
Build a bro
Some waves end with bosses.
At the outset players will choose between one of the two titular brothers. Both are big ugly muscle dudes, presumably based on a young boy's fantasy rather than what most would consider the idealized male form. The choice doesn't matter anyway since the two bros play identically.
Your character can be customized with a variety of weapons and power-ups. He can only carry two weapons at a time, switching back and forth at will. Guns come in a variety of categories such as rifles, shotguns, flamethrowers, and spread shots. Since enemies come in huge swarms, the spread shots and weapons with splash damage are the only truly useful guns. Each weapon has its own stats and can level up three times through extended use.
The game offers a nice assortment of armor broken down into head, chest, and legs categories. Each one affects the bro's attack, defense, and speed categories – sometimes decreasing a stat instead of enhancing it. Unfortunately there is no way to view your overall stats; you have to just pick the best stuff you can afford and hope for the best.
Also, the armor stat system severely undermines the potential for visual customization. Players will want to equip the pieces that provide the greatest stat bonuses, so the vast majority of items go unworn and everyone ends up looking the same by the end. Too bad you can't mix one item's stat bonuses with another's appearance.
Daddy Warbucks
Like most freemium games, Gun Bros has two forms of currency. Coins are the standard form, easily earnable in-game after refining minerals gathered from missions or by completing daily challenges. You can buy fairly good stuff with coins, but many weapons, armor, and even power-ups cost Warbucks.
Warbucks cost Microsoft Points, but players can also earn a few of them by playing the game consecutively for several days in a row. Unfortunately, the MS Point prices of Warbucks can hardly be considered fair or even sane. To get a decent weapon you'll easily have to spend twenty real dollars, with prices soaring all the way up to into the hundreds of dollars! I know Glu hopes a few unhealthy individuals will blow their life savings on rare weapons, but I'm sure they'd get way more sales if a good gun cost about $5 and the best topped out at $20.
Twin sticks of death
Gun Bros is an overhead-view twin-stick shooter, much like Zombies on the Phone. The protagonists run around a handful of contained sci-fi environments, shooting everything in sight. Each kill gets them XP, leading to level ups and increased health.
While the core gameplay is actually quite fun and addicting, the controls often hamper the enjoyment. The virtual sticks are tiny and not adjustable. On a 4.5 inch screen they end up being a reasonable size, but on 4 inch and below screens they become uncomfortable to use. Regardless of screen size, the sticks occasionally become unresponsive, causing the player not to fire. Would love to see that fixed.
Buddy system
Whereas the iOS version supports both 2-player cooperative and competitive multiplayer via Wi-Fi and the internet, the Windows Phone version lacks true multiplayer. It does have a pretty decent buddy system that allows you to play along with an AI representation of someone from your Xbox Live friends list though. The AI companion actually uses whatever equipment its owner has equipped and shares the same experience level, giving players a way to show off their builds to friends.
The actual AI is rudimentary at best and terrible at worst though. It follows the player along, never moving of its own volition. It often refuses to shoot unless enemies come within point blank range and always switches between its owners' two weapons at random intervals instead of just using the strongest weapon, which can be irritating. That said, better a stupid companion than no partner at all!
The Windows Phone version game has only four unique planets to visit, as it lacks the iOS game's fifth planet. More planets are teased on the map screen but will likely never materialize.
Each planet contains 10 revolutions. Within a revolution are 50 waves of enemies to decimate. Knock out all of the waves in a revolution and you move on to the next one, facing tougher enemies for greater XP rewards. Complete a wave without taking damage and you'll receive a 10 percent mineral bonus. The game tracks which waves you've perfected, and you can always resume any previously completed wave.
The Bokor grinding spot
While much of the game is a technical mess, Gun Bros' Achievements seem to be in full working order (unlike Bug Village and Contract Killer). The three most time consuming Achievements require players to "service" (kill) 50,000 targets, reach level 100, and complete Revolution 10 on any planet. The first two actually aren't too bad, as you can easily grind for kills will virtually no effort on planet Bokor.
Completing Revolution 10 tasks the gamer with finishing all 500 waves of a planet. It's a laborious and time consuming process that you'll want to spread across a few days. Later Revolutions become quite challenging because enemies start taking more hits to kill. Still, when equipped with the best coin purchasable weapon (the Coronal Ejector) and lots of health kits, you'll do alright.
Overall Impression
Gun Bros is a tough game to pronounce judgment on. On the one hand, its technical shortcomings are completely reprehensible. The eternal start-up load times, crashes, occasional losses of inventory, broken daily challenges ('Taze Me Bro' never works), and Options screen references to nonexistent social network and Game Center features (come on!) all should have been ironed out during the development and certification processes. Once the game somehow slipped out with such gaping flaws, the developer and publisher should have worked quickly to update it and improve the experience. They have not done so.
Still, despite the crappiness of the port, a lot of Gun Bros' charm remains unabated. People who enjoy grinding will love working to level up, earn more money, buy new equipment, and enhance their weapons. Gun Bros may lack an appealing art style, but the core game is hard to put down. It's probably too late to wish for a performance enhancing update at this point. Let's just hope that Glu Mobile brings Gun Bros 2 to Windows Phone and that the porting team shows it far more care than the first game.
Gun Bros is a free game that runs on both Windows Phone 7 and Windows Phone 8. Grab it here at the Windows Phone Store.

I've gotten to the point with these had port jobs, that if they can't try, I can't try.
cdb033 says:
The load time is so long I just deleted it.
operand says:
Wow. I have played this game alot and never experienced the load time issues (Nokia 920) so I guess I should consider myself lucky.
sholokov says:
I think it has a lot to do with how many friends you have on Xbox. Because it has to select the top...i donno 30 for the game. I reached level 178 or so with maximum armor. Then I bought the L 920. When I installed the game, my armor and all guns were gone (including what my Bro was wearing). So... I stopped playing. Oh...and my start times by level 178 were around 7-10 minutes.
johaas says:
Load times were never that bad for my 920 either...usually about 30 seconds. The controls, on the other hand. It sucks to be killed during an intense moment just because the sticks stopped responding.
Chill510 says:
I stopped playing just because I got to about level 50 on my character on my Radar and when I got my L920 it was all gone. It sucks there's no way of saving your progress. I invested a lot of time into that game. I hope they do a better job at porting GunBrothers2.
Chill510 says:
I think its hit or miss....cause there's others who posted reviews on that same issue in the app review. I wish they would at least iron out the bugs.
cdb033 says:
I also have the 920, and I had to start over in every game I've played.
Tomasz S. says:
I don;t why people hatin so much on this game.
The controls work fine, unlike Galaga for example. I grinded Gun Bros on my Lumia 800 months ago and enjoyed it. Shooting and killing is always fun. And the game isn't that hard if you have XBL friends leveled up.
As for the loading and connecting times - I got used to those quircks and learned how to workaround them, so It really wasn't that bad. At least the game didn't crash after connecting to XBL like Contract Killer did.
mrcraggle says:
I played a bunch on this on my Omnia 7 but just haven't even bothered with it on my 920. Starting from scratch with all of the issues that exist and will never be fixed is too much of a headache to endure all over again.
Emerald Thales says:
I'm just annoyed that my OCD nature for achievements insists that I keep it around and go for the achievements
theefman says:
I had surprisingly few issues with this game and got all the achievements with no problems. Only later did I encounter server issues so stopped playing it on my Lumia 900 but it was a blast and was fun to play with all the various Bros! If there's a Gun Bros 2 I'll definitely check it out.
Arsenic17 says:
This game was no where near as glitchy as contract killer, but it still had its fair share. The game play is horrendously repetitive and boring though.
malikah86 says:
Add me: olcay86
playin daily, but need more buddies!
AgentVinod says:
When I read review I realised I can use health packs...!!!
Lol, was stuck on wave 50 of revolution2
LuWiiGi333 says:
I need friends who play this and contact killer, so add me please: LuWiiGi333
garfieldm89 says:
Installed the game yesterday. As soon as i started it, i was stuck at the first screen where i have to select my player. Nothing happened after that. Will reinstalling the game solve this issue. I am having Lumia 920

I haven't kept up with WOTM precisely due to my displeasure with it, but my sense is that nothing has changed since my first anti-establishment rabblerabble. If that hunch is correct, the "we're always looking to improve WOTM" line smells an awful lot like bullshit. Kagamine said that enough last time. Of course, to address my complaints would require a fundamental restructuring of WOTM, and seeing as the world hasn't stopped turning because of my dissatisfaction with the competition it's really not a big deal. I'm content in my lack of participation and I'm certainly not going to ask everyone else to roll over because I'm unhappy.
I'll voice my concerns, though. In my opinion, the components restrict the freedom to write by forcing writers to adhere to often ridiculous tropes thrown in for "fun." Overall themes are mediocre, neither bad nor good. They aren't limiting, but they aren't inspiring, either. The same can be said for Components, most of the time. My spin-off, Writer's Underground if I recall the name correctly, only restricted writers to a specific genre. People were enthusiastic about it, but being unofficial it failed dismally.
I'll put no more work into such endeavors.
Well, I said there's always room for improvement, not necessarily that constant improvement is going to happen or even a true goal.
But yeah, that makes sense. Unfortunately, you're correct in that nothing has changed or likely will change because it comes down to a fundamental difference in opinions in what makes for a good writing contest. Thanks for taking the time to remind me of your views on the subject though, criticism is useful.
Did you know we have a Writer of the Month contest? Come join it.
WOTM #26: Evil Wins is open and accepting entries through June 4th.
Oh hey. This is a thing again.
I almost said something about taking the theme and all, since even Foxes came up with his own genre when WU was a thing, but then I was like "fuck it WOTM got 22 entries this month I don't even care".
It's not like Travel Log which got enough flack here that I really thought there would be an entry shortage with WU around. But there still wasn't. Not much less than the highly popular Betrayal which was last month's. Also quite a few Spammers entered if I recall.
But yeah, WOTM does look to improve. We make tiny changes all the time trying to fix little things and make the contest better. Unfortunately Foxes while I respect your opinion, a complete restructuring of WOTM will not happen. Especially since it doesn't pertain to "the masses" like you kept talking about with the WU thing. You're fervently against components, I get that. But it's mainly just you.
But uh, yeaaaah... The current system works well. We just focus on fixing what doesn't.
At any rate, I'm glad this thread could go up without either one of us spitting flames at each other like last time. I groaned when I saw this thread just because I was afraid of all that bubbling back up.
Oh lol, well it started out as a joke, I was going to make my own anti-WOTM since I didn't get my 'inspiration' until today. x) I figured since the entries were all in for WOTM using the theme wouldn't matter. Since my beautiful masterpiece was structured around the theme of the actual WOTM. x) So yeahh wee WOTM: Spam Edition. <3

Trust is an element that school system Superintendent Rick Stout believes has been lacking between the Scotland County Board of Education and the Board of Commissioners.
Stout warned that "unless we start trusting each other" it will be difficult to "move forward as a county."
"I always think there is progress when you have two parties talking to each other," said Stout.
Voicing his agreement, commissioners Chairman Bob Davis underlined the importance of unity.
"It's not the school board versus us — we are all in this together," said Davis.
The boards met on Thursday to discuss funding of the school system's capital outlay request as well as improving the relationship between the two boards. Officials say they plan to continue the joint sessions.
While a date has not yet been set, the boards also agreed to reconvene in July.
"(Bob Davis) and I have talked about maybe meeting quarterly," said Stout.
Stout said that the two boards may look to form a joint committee that will meet four times per year, with the full-board meetings occurring twice a year.
"A lot of things can be resolved when you meet as a party, and this represents an excellent opportunity for us to meet going forward" said Stout.
The joint meeting tentatively scheduled for July will focus on the development of future funding sources for the school system's capital outlay budget.
"We need to look at revenue streams to fund the school system," said school board member Terence Williams. "Unless we do, we are going to be in this same position next year."
Another issue that will be dealt with at future joint meetings, if Commissioner John Alford has his way, will be the adjustment of the current school system funding formula ("the school floor"). Alford hopes that a permanent agreement can be reached between the two boards that would see the school system funding formula permanently reduced.
"(The)$10 million going to the school system out of our $35-million budget is more than the county can afford without raising taxes," said Alford.
During the meeting Alford told the school board that he has "no interest in telling the school system how to run its business."
"I just want for you all to face up to the current situation, as they did in 1963 when the school floor was created … and adjust the school floor," said Alford.
"We have lost 20-plus industries and 5,000 jobs, and we need to change the school floor," Alford added.
While his request to consider the school floor was not discussed during the recent meeting, Alford said that he plans to continue to pursue the floor change at July's joint meeting.

NEW YORK — The tenor turned a bit after a second straight marathon day of NHL labor talks. Gone was some of the lightheartedness and rare optimism expressed about 24 hours earlier.
Representatives of the league and the players both said Wednesday's long talks were "candid" and offered some sense of hope by announcing negotiations would resume later Thursday.
There is no doubt that work still needs to be done for a deal to be made that would save the hockey season.
"We had good, candid dialogue," NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly said early Thursday after nearly nine hours of talks at a Manhattan hotel. "There continue to be some critical open issues between the two parties, and we understand the union should be getting back to us (Thursday) on some of those issues."
It isn't known what progress — if any — was made, but owners and players understand that an agreement must be reached soon if they hope to get the game back on the ice this season.
The players' association is expected to have internal discussions Thursday morning before meeting with the NHL later in the day.
"We had a series of candid discussions. We will meet again tomorrow," said Winnipeg Jets defenseman Ron Hainsey, who like Daly didn't take any questions after the talks ended for the night.
Negotiations resumed a little after 2 p.m. Wednesday and proceeded in fits and starts as the league and the players' association searched for an agreement. The talks again went through the night, breaking two hours for dinner before finishing shortly before 1 a.m.
Talks on Tuesday lasted about eight hours and wrapped up at midnight, with the promise that negotiations would continue Wednesday.
Very little information leaked out of the meeting room, but it is believed that the sides exchanged proposals and spent much of the time apart discussing what had been offered. One point of contention is the length of a new contract, with owners looking for a 10-year pact, and players wanting a shorter term.
Owners often retreated to their room one floor above the location of the bargaining session and then took the elevator back down to get talks going again. Some of the joint sessions lasted only 15 minutes.
Cautious optimism emerged Tuesday in the first round of talks that kept NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman on the outside along with union executive director Donald Fehr, while six owners and about 18 players talked inside. The positive feeling carried over into Wednesday morning when various team executives said they heard good reports during an NHL board of governors meeting.
Bettman spoke briefly after that, just before negotiations started again, and the sides remained silent the rest of the day while talks continued. The reemergence in a media workroom at the hotel of a podium with a lectern featuring the NHL shield sparked hope that some sort of announcement soon would be coming. Though it remained unoccupied for quite some time, it gained instant popularity on Twitter.
Bettman declined to take any questions earlier Wednesday when he stood at that podium. A ray of hope that a season-saving deal could be made emerged late Tuesday night after about eight hours of bargaining.
"We are pleased with the process that is ongoing, and out of respect for that process I don't have anything else to say," Bettman said.
