A small town in Somerset, England, next door to the county Dorset. Its a very pretty, historic town, and is well known for the glasotnbury tor, up on the hill. This hill can be seen for miles around Glastonbury, which leads on to the famous Glastonbury festival. The festival is locatedin Pilton, about 2 miles from Glastonbury, but you can see the tor from the festival, and as it is the closest prominant town to the festival,so it takes its name. the festival is an amazing place, like a city that springs ups from nowhere for a couple of days per year. the green fields host the more traditional festival, most like when the festival first started, as a gathering on mr Michael Evis's land, with healing and meditation tents, and the tipi field is such a tranquil place. around the main pyramid stage, where the more commercial side of the festival lies, is completely different. still an amazing atmosphere, with everybody just happy to be there. on wednesday and thurday at the festival, before the music starts is good wil all round, and random cheers through the crowds start up and travel all around the festival site. all in all, the festival appeals to such a wide range of people, original traditional grass roots festival goers and people who prefer to spend there time around the dance village. I had an amazing time at glastonbury this year, people say its overrated, but only when you've been can you know the sheer diversity that it holds.

Glastonbury is a market town situated in the Mendip hill, in the County of Somerset in Western england. The supposed location of the mythical Isle of Avalon, something of a magnet for crystal waving new-agers and serious pagans alike.
NB: NOT purely an over-hyped and hideously over-expensive music festival. stoned townie dickhead: "I bin Glastonbury innit"
Normal person: "Really, is that shop 'The Truckle of Cheese' still in the high street?" stoned townie dickhead: "Yoooo wot?, mobile phone, mugging, sattelite tv, and other urban bollocks...innit." |

A high-class suburban area full of preppy white kids wearing polo shirts and uggs who play tennis for fun, yeah that's right, tennis. This town is also associated with the rumors that the locals can turn anyone from any other race into a snobby rich cracker, it's true. Other nicknames: White-ass town USA, Glastonboring, the caucasian ghetto ect ect Black guy: hello there maurice, hows it goin?

At its core, the ElliptiGO is a fitness device that emulates running outdoors without the associated impact. It was designed by runners to be the ideal low-impact substitute for running. We believe it is the ideal cross-training device for healthy runners and the best replacement for running for injured runners. It delivers an exercise experience that is closer to running than anything else available today.
The ElliptiGO has some unique characteristics that make it a great solution for a wide variety of people. Obviously, running is near and dear to our hearts, and the ElliptiGO was designed in particular for cross-training and injured runners. However, most of our customers are not runners. They are people who want a comfortable, fun, efficient, low-impact, and weight-bearing exercise that they can enjoy outdoors. The ElliptiGO delivers on each of these conditions in a way that no other device can. As a result, our customers range from elite athletes to recreational fitness enthusiasts just looking to get fit. It's a customizable experience, enabling you to challenge yourself as much or as little as you�d like.
There's nothing wrong with the bicycle. It's a great vehicle. In fact, every member of our company has spent a lot of time on a bicycle. The two founders are former Ironman triathletes (a race that includes a 112-mile bicycling portion) and our employees include former professional road and track bike racers and competitive triathletes. We are not trying to recreate or change the bicycle - far from it. In fact, what we've created isn't actually a bicycle - it's a pedal-driven scooter. If it were at all easy to say "elliptical pedal-driven scooter" we'd call it that. We've simply chosen the term "cycle" out of convenience, but we're the first to admit that the ElliptiGO is not a bicycle. The ElliptiGO is an exercise device made for runners, by runners. Our goal is to re-create running outdoors without the impact. As any runner will tell you, bicycles don't do that for a number of reasons.
First of all, the overall cycling experience is different from the running experience. Cyclists ride seated with their upper torso leaning forward so they can reach the handlebars. They tend to ride in packs and cover great distances. Runners exercise in a much more upright position and bear their own weight the entire time. They tend to exercise in smaller groups and for shorter periods. Secondly, the cycling propulsion motion is very different from the running motion. Cyclists pedal in a circle while runners take long elliptical strides. Finally, the culture is different. Runners tend to wear loose clothing and comfortable shoes. Cyclists often wear tight apparel with cleated shoes. Large recreational cycling events tend to be without a specified mass start time, include several long rest stops and can last an entire day. Recreational running events tend to include timing chips, run-through water stations, and are of much shorter duration. Cycling and running both have their good points and bad points, but we believe that they are significantly different, and the ElliptiGO is designed to deliver an experience that is much closer to running than to cycling.
People often ask us how it's possible to ride without a seat. Fortunately, it's easy to ride an elliptical cycle because it turns out that people are able to balance quite well when standing. Think about the last time you were riding a bike over some kind of obstacle - train tracks, potholes, speed bumps - chances are you stood up on the pedals to improve your balance when crossing the obstacle. Basically, the ElliptiGO rider is in that well-balanced position the entire time.
In addition, the need to rest on a seat while exercising is something of a myth. People run marathons without sitting; people hike for hours on end without sitting; and almost everyone finds themselves walking and standing for long periods of time fairly frequently. Just think about the last time you were at the mall, or Disneyland, or sightseeing. Riding an elliptical cycle is basically like walking, hiking, or running. You can comfortably do it for hours, and as you'll see on the "Epic Rides" pages, we've tested our theory and found that there is no substantive difference in the amount of time we can ride the ElliptiGO versus how long we could walk, run, or ride a bike.
We haven't seen any other elliptical cycles out there yet, or anything else that is designed to truly emulate running outdoors without the impact .
A lot. Check out the information we have posted here on our website. If you are interested in testing out an ElliptiGO, please schedule a demo or sign up for a test ride . If you have any questions check our FAQ page or feel free to email us at: firstname.lastname@example.com .

Fortunately, cancer in children and adolescents is rare, although the overall incidence of childhood cancer has been slowly increasing since 1975. 1 Children and adolescents with cancer should be referred to medical centers that have a multidisciplinary team of cancer specialists with experience treating the cancers that occur during childhood and adolescence. This multidisciplinary team approach incorporates the skills of the primary care physician, pediatric surgical subspecialists, radiation oncologists, pediatric medical oncologists/hematologists, rehabilitation specialists, pediatric nurse specialists, social workers, and others in order to ensure that children receive treatment, supportive care, and rehabilitation that will achieve optimal survival and quality of life. (Refer to the PDQ® Supportive and Palliative Care summaries for specific information about supportive care for children and adolescents with cancer.)
Guidelines for pediatric cancer centers and their role in the treatment of pediatric patients with cancer have been outlined by the American Academy of Pediatrics. 2 At these pediatric cancer centers, clinical trials are available for most of the types of cancer that occur in children and adolescents, and the opportunity to participate in these trials is offered to most patients/families. Clinical trials for children and adolescents with cancer are generally designed to compare potentially better therapy with therapy that is currently accepted as standard. Most of the progress made in identifying curative therapies for childhood cancers has been achieved through clinical trials. Information about ongoing clinical trials is available from the NCI Web site.
Dramatic improvements in survival have been achieved for children and adolescents with cancer. 1 Between 1975 and 2006, childhood cancer mortality has decreased by more than 50%. Childhood and adolescent cancer survivors require close follow-up since cancer therapy side effects may persist or develop months or years after treatment. (Refer to the PDQ® summary on Late Effects of Treatment for Childhood Cancer for specific information about the incidence, type, and monitoring of late effects in childhood and adolescent cancer survivors.)
Wilms tumor is a curable disease in the majority of affected children. Approximately 500 cases are diagnosed in the United States each year. Since the 1980s, the 5-year survival rate for Wilms tumor has been consistently above 90%. 1 This favorable outcome occurred despite reductions in the length of therapy, dose of radiation, extent of fields irradiated, and the percentage of patients receiving radiation therapy. 3 The prognosis for patients with Wilms tumor is related not only to the stage of disease at diagnosis, the histopathologic features of the tumor, patient age, and tumor size, but also to the team approach provided to each patient by the pediatric surgeon, radiation oncologist, and pediatric oncologist (COG-AREN9404). 4 5 6 7 Patients who develop Wilms tumor in their second decade of life have a poorer survival (5-year survival, 63%) than younger patients with Wilms tumor. 8
In an analysis of Wilms tumor patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database, adults (n = 152) had a statistically worse overall survival (OS) (69% vs. 88%, P < .001) than pediatric patients (n = 2,190), despite previous studies showing comparable outcome when treated on protocol. 9 10 Adults with Wilms tumor were more likely than pediatric patients to be staged as having localized disease, to not receive any lymph node sampling, and to not receive any radiation treatment. The investigators recommended that all adult patients diagnosed with Wilms tumor should undergo lymph node sampling and that there should be close collaboration with pediatric surgeons and oncologists in treatment planning. The Children's Oncology Group has increased the enrollment age for their Wilms tumor trials to include patients up to age 30 years. 11
Congenital Anomalies and Syndromes Predisposing to Wilms Tumor
Wilms tumor typically develops in otherwise healthy children; however, approximately 10% of children with Wilms tumor have a congenital anomaly. 12 Children with Wilms tumor may have associated urinary tract anomalies, including hemihypertrophy, cryptorchidism, and hypospadias. Children may have a recognizable phenotypic syndrome (including overgrowth disease, aniridia, genetic malformations, and others). These syndromes have provided clues to the genetic basis of the disease. The phenotypic syndromes have been divided into overgrowth and nonovergrowth categories.
Screening Children Predisposed to Wilms Tumor
Children with a significantly increased predisposition to develop Wilms tumor (e.g., most children with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, WAGR syndrome, Denys-Drash syndrome, idiopathic hemihypertrophy, or sporadic aniridia) should be screened with ultrasound every 3 months at least until they reach age 8 years. 13 14 15 30
Approximately 10% of patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome will develop a malignancy, with either Wilms tumor or hepatoblastoma being the most common, although adrenal tumors can also occur. 31 Children with hemihypertrophy are also at risk for developing liver and adrenal tumors. Screening with abdominal ultrasound and serum alpha-fetoprotein is suggested until age 4 years; after age 4, most hepatoblastomas will have occurred, and imaging may be limited to renal ultrasound, which is quicker and does not require the child to fast for the exam. 32
Children with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome, a unilateral limb overgrowth syndrome, had been considered to be at increased risk for developing Wilms tumor. The risk of Wilms tumor in children with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome, when assessed using the National Wilms Tumor Study (NWTS) database, was no different than in the general population and routine ultrasound surveillance is not recommended. 33
Wilms tumor (hereditary or sporadic) appears to result from changes in one or more of at least ten genes. Several, but not all, will be discussed here.
The WT1 gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 11 (11p13). The normal function of WT1 is required for normal genitourinary development and is important for differentiation of the renal blastema. Germline mutations in WT1 have been found in about 2% of phenotypically normal children with Wilms tumor. 34 Germline WT1 mutations in children with Wilms tumor does not confer a poor prognosis per se. The offspring of those with germline mutation in WT1 may also be at increased risk of developing Wilms tumor. Because deletion of WT1 was the first mutation found to be associated with Wilms tumor, WT1 was assumed to be a conventional tumor suppressor gene. However, non-inactivating mutations can result in altered WT1 protein function that also results in Wilms tumor, such as in the Denys-Drash syndrome.
WT1 mutation is more common in those children with Wilms tumor and one of the following:
The observation that lead to the discovery of WT1 was that children with WAGR syndrome (aniridia, genitourinary anomalies, and mental retardation) were at high risk (>30%) for developing Wilms tumor. Germline mutations were then identified at chromosome 11p13 in children with WAGR syndrome. Deletions involved a set of contiguous genes that included WT1 and the PAX6 gene (responsible for aniridia). Aniridia is characterized by hypoplasia of the iris and it occurs in sporadic or familial cases and has an autosomal dominant inheritance. Mutations in the PAX6 gene lead to aniridia. The PAX6 gene is located on chromosome 13 closely associated with the WT1 gene, deletion of which confers the increased risk of Wilms tumor. Some of the sporadic cases of aniridia are caused by large chromosomal deletions that also include the Wilms tumor gene WT1. This results in an increased relative risk of 67-fold (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.1241) of developing Wilms tumor in children with sporadic aniridia. 35 Patients with sporadic aniridia and a normal WT1 gene, however, are not at increased risk for developing Wilms tumor. Children with familial aniridia generally have a normal WT1 gene and are not at an increased risk of Wilms tumor. The mental retardation in WAGR syndrome may be secondary to deletion of other genes including SLC1A2 or BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). 36
The incidence of Wilms tumor in children with sporadic aniridia is estimated to be about 5%. 24 Patients with sporadic aniridia should be screened with ultrasound every 3 months until they reach age 8 years, unless genetic testing confirms that they are negative for WT1. 15 30
Monitoring for late renal failure
Children with WAGR syndrome or other germline WT1 mutations are at increased risk of eventually developing hypertension, nephropathy, and renal failure and should be monitored throughout their lives. 37 Patients with Wilms tumor and aniridia without genitourinary abnormalities are at lesser risk but should be monitored for nephropathy or renal failure. 38 Children with Wilms tumor and any genitourinary anomalies are also at increased risk for late renal failure and should be monitored. Features associated with germline WT1 mutations that increase the risk for developing renal failure are stromal predominant histology, bilaterality, intralobular nephrogenic rests, and Wilms tumor diagnosed before age 2 years. 37
Activating mutations of the beta-catenin gene (CTNNB1) have been reported to occur in 15% of Wilms tumor patients. In one study, all but one tumor with a beta-catenin mutation had a WT1 mutation and at least 50% of the tumors with WT1 mutations had a beta-catenin mutation. 39 40 That CTNNB1 mutations are rarely found in the absence of a WT1 or WTX mutation suggests that activation of beta-catenin in the presence of intact WT1 protein must be inadequate to promote tumor development. 41 42
WT1 mutations and 11p15 loss of heterozygosity are associated with relapse in patients with very low-risk Wilms tumor who do not receive chemotherapy. 43 These may provide biomarkers to stratify patients in the future.
A second Wilms tumor locus, WT2 gene, maps to an imprinted region of chromosome 11p15.5, which, when constitutional, causes the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. About 3% of children with Wilms tumors have constitutional epigenetic or genetic changes at the 11p15.5 growth regulatory locus without any clinical manifestations of overgrowth. These children may be more likely to have bilateral Wilms tumor or familial Wilms tumor. 36 There are several candidate genes at the WT2 locus, comprising the two independent imprinted domains IGF2/H19 and KIP2/LIT1. 44 Loss of heterozygosity, which exclusively affects the maternal chromosome, has the effect of upregulating paternally active genes and silencing maternally inactive ones. A loss or switch of the imprint for genes (change in methylation status) in this region has also been frequently observed and results in the same functional aberrations. A study of 35 sporadic primary Wilms tumors suggests that more than 80% have somatic loss of heterozygosity or loss of imprinting at 11p15.5. 45 The mechanism resulting in loss of imprinting can be either genetic mutation or epigenetic change of methylation. 36 44 Loss of imprinting or gene methylation are rarely found at other loci, supporting the specificity of loss of imprinting at IGF2. 46 Interestingly, Wilms tumors in Asian children are not associated with either nephrogenic rests or IGF2 loss of imprinting. 47
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome results from constitutional loss of imprinting or heterozygosity of WT2. Observations suggest genetic heterogeneity in the etiology of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome with differing levels of association with risk of tumor formation. 48 Molecularly defined subsets of Beckwith-Wiedemann patients may not require ultrasound screening for malignancies. Approximately one-fifth of patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome who develop Wilms tumor present with bilateral disease, though metachronous bilateral disease is also observed. 15 16 17 The prevalence of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome is about 1% among children with Wilms tumor reported to the NWTS. 17 49 50
Wilms tumor gene on the X chromosomeWTX)
A third gene, WTX, has been identified on the X chromosome and plays a role in normal kidney development. WTX mutations were identified in 17% of Wilms tumors, equally distributed between males and females. 51 This gene is inactivated in approximately one-third of Wilms tumors but germline mutations have not been observed in patients with Wilms tumor. 52
Additional genes have been implicated in the pathogenesis and biology of Wilms tumor:
Genetics of Familial Wilms Tumor
Despite the number of genes that appear to be involved in the development of Wilms tumor, hereditary Wilms tumor is uncommon, with approximately 2% of patients having a positive family history for Wilms tumor. Siblings of children with Wilms tumor have a low likelihood of developing Wilms tumor. 60 The risk of Wilms tumor among offspring of persons who have had unilateral (sporadic) tumors is less than 2%. 61 Two familial Wilms tumor genes have been localized to FWT1 (17q12-q21) and FWT2 (19q13.4). 62 63 64
About 4% to 5% of patients have bilateral Wilms tumors, but these are not usually hereditary. 65 Many bilateral tumors are present at the time Wilms tumor is first diagnosed (i.e., synchronous), but a second Wilms tumor may also develop later in the remaining kidney of 1% to 3% of children treated successfully for Wilms tumor. The incidence of such metachronous bilateral Wilms tumors is much higher in children whose original Wilms tumor was diagnosed before age 12 months and/or whose resected kidney contains nephrogenic rests. Periodic abdominal ultrasound is recommended for early detection of metachronous bilateral Wilms tumor as follows: 63 64
Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney, rhabdoid tumor of the kidney, neuroepithelial tumor of the kidney, and cystic partially-differentiated nephroblastoma are childhood renal tumors unrelated to Wilms tumor. 66 67 (Refer to the Cellular Classification section of this summary for more information.)
Cellular Classification
Back Up
Although most patients with a histologic diagnosis of Wilms tumor fare well with current treatment, approximately 10% of patients have histopathologic features that are associated with a poorer prognosis, and in some types, with a high incidence of relapse and death. Wilms tumor can be separated into three prognostic groups on the basis of histopathologyfavorable histology, anaplastic histology, and nephrogenic rests.
Histologically, Wilms tumor mimics development of a normal kidney consisting of three cell types: blastemal, epithelial (tubules), and stromal. Not all tumors are triphasic, and monophasic patterns may present diagnostic difficulties. While associations between histologic features and prognosis or responsiveness to therapy have been suggested, with the exception of anaplasia, none of these features have reached statistical significance and therefore do not direct the initial therapy. 1
Anaplastic histology accounts for about 10% of Wilms tumors. Anaplastic histology is the single most important histologic predictor of response and survival in patients with Wilms tumor. Tumors occurring in older patients (aged 1016 years) have a higher incidence of anaplastic histology. 2 There are two histologic criteria for anaplasia, both of which must be present for the diagnosis. They are the presence of multipolar polyploid mitotic figures with marked nuclear enlargement and hyperchromasia. Changes on 17p consistent with mutations in the p53 gene have been associated with foci of anaplastic histology. 3 All of these characteristics lend support to the hypothesis that anaplasia evolves as a late event from a subpopulation of Wilms tumor cells that have acquired additional genetic lesions. 4 Anaplasia correlates best with responsiveness to therapy rather than to aggressiveness. It is most consistently associated with poor prognosis when it is diffusely distributed and when identified at advanced stages. These tumors are more resistant to the chemotherapy traditionally used in children with favorable-histology Wilms tumor. 5 This is the reason why focal anaplasia and diffuse anaplasia are differentiated, both pathologically and therapeutically. Focal anaplasia is defined as the presence of one or a few sharply localized regions of anaplasia within a primary tumor. Focal anaplasia does not confer as poor a prognosis as does diffuse anaplasia. 5 6 7
Nephrogenic rests are abnormally retained embryonic kidney precursor cells arranged in clusters. Nephrogenic rests are found in about 1% of unselected pediatric autopsies, 35% of kidneys with unilateral Wilms tumors, and in nearly 100% of kidneys with bilateral Wilms tumors. 8 9 The term nephroblastomatosis is defined as the presence of diffuse or multifocal nephrogenic rests. There are two types: intralobar nephrogenic rests and perilobar nephrogenic rests. Diffuse hyperplastic perilobar nephroblastomatosis is defined as nephroblastomatosis forming a thick rind around one or both kidneys and is considered a preneoplastic condition. 1 Patients with any type of nephrogenic rest in a kidney removed for nephroblastoma should be considered at increased risk for tumor formation in the remaining kidney. This risk decreases with patient age. 10 Extrarenal nephrogenic rests rarely occur, but may develop into extrarenal Wilms tumor. 11
Clear Cell Sarcoma of the Kidney
Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney is not a Wilms tumor variant, but it is an important primary renal tumor associated with a significantly higher rate of relapse and death than favorable-histology Wilms tumor. 12 In addition to pulmonary metastases, clear cell sarcoma also spreads to bone, brain, and soft tissue. The classic pattern of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney is defined by nests or cords of cells separated by regularly spaced fibrovascular septa. 12 Previously, relapses have occurred in long intervals after the completion of chemotherapy (up to 10 years), however with current therapy relapses after 3 years are uncommon. 13 The brain is a frequent site of recurrent disease. 14 15
While little is known about the biology of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney, the t(10;17)(q22;p13) translocation has been reported in clear cell sarcoma of the kidney. As a result of the translocation, the YWHAE-FAM22 fusion transcript is formed; this transcript was detected in 12% of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney cases in one series. 16
Rhabdoid tumors are extremely aggressive malignancies that generally occur in infants and young children. The most common locations are the kidney and central nervous system (CNS) (atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor), although rhabdoid tumors can also arise in most soft tissue sites. Initially they were thought to be a rhabdomyosarcomatoid variant of Wilms tumor when they occurred in the kidney.
Histologically, the most distinctive features of rhabdoid tumors of the kidney are rather large cells with large vesicular nuclei, a prominent single nucleolus, and in some cells, the presence of globular eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusions. A distinct clinical presentation with fever, hematuria, young age (mean age 11 months), and high tumor stage at presentation suggests a diagnosis of rhabdoid tumor of the kidney. 17 Approximately two-thirds of patients will present with advanced stage. Bilateral cases have been reported. 18 Rhabdoid tumors of the kidney tend to metastasize to the lungs and the brain. As many as 10% to 15% of patients with rhabdoid tumors of the kidney also have CNS lesions. 19 Relapses occur early (median time from diagnosis is 8 months). 18 20
Rhabdoid tumors in all anatomical locations have a common genetic abnormalitythe mutation and/or deletion of the SMARCB1 (also called hSNF5 or INI1) gene located at chromosome 22q11. This gene encodes a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex that has an important role in transcriptional regulation. 21 22 Based on gene expression analysis in rhabdoid tumors, it is hypothesized that rhabdoid tumors arise within early progenitor cells during a critical developmental window in which loss of SMARCB1 directly results in repression of neural development, loss of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibition, and trithorax/polycomb dysregulation. 23 Identical mutations may give rise to a brain or kidney tumor. Germline mutations of SMARCB1 have been documented for patients with one or more primary tumors of the brain and/or kidney, consistent with a genetic predisposition to the development of rhabdoid tumors. 24 25 Approximately 35% of patients with rhabdoid tumors have germline SMARCB1 alterations. 26 In most cases, the mutations are de novo, and not inherited from a parent. Germline mosaicism has been suggested for several families with multiple affected siblings. It appears that those patients with germline mutations may have the worst prognosis. 27
Rhabdoid predisposition syndrome
Early-onset, multifocal disease and familial cases strongly support the possibility of a rhabdoid predisposition syndrome. This has been confirmed by the presence of constitutional mutations of SMARCB1 in rare familial cases and in a subset of patients with apparently sporadic rhabdoid tumors. In a cohort of 74 rhabdoid tumors, 60% of the tumors occurring before age 6 months were linked to the presence of a germline mutation. However, in this same series, tumors that occurred after age 2 years were also found to be associated with germline mutations (7 of 35 cases). Germline analysis is suggested for all individuals with rhabdoid tumors, whatever their ages. Genetic counseling is recommended given the low-but-actual risk of familial recurrence. In cases of mutations, parental screening should be considered, although such screening carries a low probability of positivity. Prenatal diagnosis is feasible and should be considered. 28
Recommendations for surveillance in patients with germline SMARCB1 mutations have been developed based on the epidemiology and clinical course of rhabdoid tumors. These recommendations were developed by a group of pediatric cancer genetic experts (including oncologists, radiologists, and geneticists). They have not been formally studied to confirm the benefit of screening patients with germline SMARCB1 mutations. The aggressive natural history of the disease, apparently high penetrance, and well-defined age of onset for CNS atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor suggest that screening could prove beneficial. Given the potential survival benefit of surgically resectable disease, it is postulated that early detection might improve overall survival. 29 From birth to age 1 year, it is suggested that patients have thorough physical and neurologic examinations, as well as head ultrasounds monthly to assess for the development of a CNS tumor. It is suggested that patients undergo abdominal ultrasounds with focus on the kidneys every 2 to 3 months to assess for renal lesions. From age 1 year to approximately age 4 years, after which

Why Sheep?
The answer is simple.....sheep milk cheeses are my favorite. It would have been a lot easier to become a maker of cow or goat milk cheese, because there is way more milk available. There are very limited amounts of dairy sheep in the United States, yet quite common in other countries. Some of the most famous cheeses in the world are made with sheep milk: Roquefort, Feta, Manchego, Pecorino Romano just to name a few. They have many thousands of dairy sheep in countries such as France, Italy, Spain, Greece, etc. I live in California though, and when Bleating Heart began in 2009 there were only 4 licensed sheep dairies in the entire state. That's right, just FOUR. Initially, I was able to buy milk from one of those four dairies, and there were only 30 milking sheep in that flock. The other 3 dairies in CA couldn't spare a drop since they use all of their milk for their own cheese production. After my first season, my milk source became unavailable as she needed all of her milk to make her cheese going forward. So....what the heck, I started my own sheep dairy! Sheep give very little milk though, so if anyone out there wants to start a sheep dairy, please contact me because I always need more sheep milk.

Not Quite 20 Questions with Karen White
Posted by Wanda in Authors as Guest Bloggers on October 2, 2010
Karen White, The Girl on Legare Street, SIBA Fiction Nominee is the bestselling and sleep-deprived author of twelve "grit lit" novels and Southern ghost stories.
Favorite book as a child? Time at the Top by Edmund Ormondroyd
What are you reading right now? Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
Why that title? The book involves a house on Legare Street in Charleston and a female ghost so I didn't have to think that hard…
Why independent bookstores matter? They are the sugar in my sweet tea. Knowledgeable, passionate, dedicated—and unparalleled!
Favorite part of writing a book? Typing "The End."
Least favorite part of writing a book? The middle. That's about the point in the book where I think to myself, "this sucks."
Are you working on anything new? I'm currently working on THE BEACH TREES, set in Biloxi, Mississippi, which will be out in May, 2011.
Do you have any superstitions, lucky charms, or rituals around your writing? My dog, Quincy. He's four years old and since he was a puppy he's glued himself to my side while I'm writing.
Comment on the writing life… If it were easy, everybody would be doing it.
Hardest part of the creation to publication experience? The copy edits. When I type The End I, really don't want to see it again.
Why do you write? Because I can't imagine not writing. Because hearing from readers who have been touched by my writing is the icing on my cupcake.
When do you write? Whenever I can. I love writing early in the morning the best, though, and wake up super early 7 days a week to do that.
When did you know you were a writer? I'm still trying to convince myself… Seriously, until about my 12th book, I thought this whole "writing as a career" thing was a fluke!
15. What, or Who, will you dish on, as in gossip about, at dinner? Wanda Jewell. There is SO much material there.
16. What will make you a scintillating dinner guest? I have the sense of humor of a 16-year-old boy so I'll laugh at anything.
17. Who is your favorite new author? Kathryn Stockett.
18. What is your drink of choice? Diet Dr. Pepper. I'm addicted.
19. What is your favorite food? Anything chocolate or fried. Both would be preferable.

Europe's Next Crisis: Britain Losing Allegiance to the EU
Quote Overall, assuming there were a referendum, it's likely the opinions of the British public wouldn't differ much from those of Germany. Unquote
This is precisely the problem. If there were to be a EU wide referendum tomorrow how many of the EU paymaster countries would vote to stay on this slightly dented project? I think national politicians would struggle to convince the voters from Germany, France and the UK that they are on the right path. It is more likely to be enough is enough. We are of course discussing the word never to be mentioned in Brussels, Referendum. In the last UK election the Conservative party polled 36% and they avoided talking about Europe at all. Fast forward two years and polls suggest nearly 50% of the electorate would vote against membership of the EU in a referendum. I leave you to translate how the labour party would adjust their often fluid politics to cover that position. Do bare in mind that the UK polls are based on the British electorates view on the current position. Would anyone like to forecast their views and attitude to a future EU as forecast in the Spiegel article? Answers on a postcard to 10 Downing Street. London SW1. Willy Waucht |

As an American, I welcome the end of the EU. It was a despicable copy of the USA, and from my experience, these sort of big-unions go against normal people, as if to say "Lets combine into something big that rolls over little people." International union is idealistic. The USA would be better if it broke up as well.

who says a future EU will decide to run an open market?
What Britain is failing to do is to look ahead at what kind of future union might emerge, still operating a border less trade and common Euro, but only to members and those signed up. Britain could potentially wave good bye to half its foreign trade by not sitting at the table and talking turkey. Europe has failed due to its unelected Commissioners, uncontrolled lobbying, no mechanism of audited control over the agricultural budgets, unable to respond to the machinations of the US which has always used its aircraft-carrier Britain to enter the EU with division in mind. Europe should have waved good bye to NATO in 1989 and formed its own peace and defense forces, it should have looked to a common fiscal system, looked at the elimination of tax havens far sooner, but we have trusted party politicians with this work, many of them showing psychopathic tendencies in their acts and manners, prone to go off the rails and please the arms dealers of this world, again. Germany's retarded attitude to forced child labour in Uzbekistan, for reasons of keeping the worst dictator in power, a murderous man who boils his people alive to torture them, with a pathological hatred for Muslims, and with an equally de generated daughter, Germany is keeping this man sweet for access to Afghanistan and for cotton, so we have entered a new era and people will make their views known about it. Whatever happens in Europe of the world. Britain does not know how much they need Europe, markets don't have to be open. http://www.laborrights.org/stop-chil...ign/uzbekistan PS Hot tip: the third best political blog, www.craigmurray.co.uk talks about issues as such. Btw. has anybody seen Adam Werritty?...;) |

Britain losing its allegiance to EU
Yes, a weakening of our commitment to the EU is a natural consequence of the necessity for the UK to look inwards while it re-engineers its own identity. This introspection is an unavoidable result of the Scottish referendum on independence. Normal, and hopefully better service will be resumed after 2014. In the meantime your patience is appreciated. As a good friend I would hope Germany would keep communication channels open to make sure the UK's current posturing is seen for what it is, the birth pangs of an English parliament and a federal UK along German lines.

You can grow pears, apples, and all kinds of stuff in the UK, but for many years, you imported all your pears from France! A completely pointless import. It's like importing corn from Mexico or the reverse. It has no meaning. |

For the EU to "threaten" to shut off a flow of trade unbalanced in their own favour is as stupid as a rude waiter announcing, at the end of a meal, that he will refuse to allow me to pay the bill! The UK voted, decades ago, to join a free trade area; anything more is an undemocratic and unacceptable 'bait and switch'. Germany needs to take on board that this is why it is so objectionable to have people like Ashton purporting to speak for a common foreign policy the EU has no business operating. The electorate is divided whether or not to remain in the EU as it is now, but it is virtually unanimous in rejecting the "ever closer union" others seem to take for granted. Would other EU countries really be stupid enough to shut off international trade out of spite if and when the UK rejects further assimilation? I very much doubt it; an amicable relationship would be in everyone's interests. |

fair points
As if the UK ever gave its people the opportunity for a fair vote. Not before 1994 did Britain allow a proportional election system, its democratic record is in the cellar, with elections for PCC predicted to rouse less than 20%, a sytem ruled by a chancellor who likes to print money and give it to bankers for their liquidity. Gideon Osborne, btw. they found traces of cocaine on floor 3's toilet seat, has enabled multinationals such a Barclay, vodafone and Starbucks,etc. to get away with paying no taxes, socially irresponsible looters who operate tax haven regimes as normal, for whom paying tax is a dirty word. Cameron is cutting Britain's interests off, if he has no social responsibilities with regards to Europe's citizens, regarding this all as building blocks he can just kick over, one excessive demand after the other, whilst some are trying hard to sort the mess out, then he is just sabotaging, being non-constructive and as febrile as his Ascendancy chancellor. British farmers are wholly uncompetitive in an open world market, without EU subsidies, its own agricultural system is heavily dependent on EU migrant workers, because their own young are idlers, so what are you on about. where do you live? in a penthouse/flat rented from a colleague...;) |

A more proportional system might be nice, but in a proper democracy it would need to get public support first; so far, that hasn't happened. I don't like the money-printing either, but the money printed is being given to the government to spend, not to banks. Quote:
Uncompetitive farmers are certainly a problem the EU has exacerbated with the CAP; reforming that is something we have been requesting for at least a decade, but reform seems to be an alien concept there. |

Dover, the door to Europe?
This is nothing new whatsoever! Ever since Winston Churchill suggested to the exiled General de Gaulle, in the 1940s, that after WW2 a new form of co-operation between European states could be formed, the political parties in Britain have done all they can to stop the idea.
This opposition to an objective which, when sensibly organised, can only be of benefit to us all, includes the deliberate disinformation of the British public, about the ideas and future concepts of the EU. The main reason for such resistance is not so much patriotism, as the selfish wish not to lose personal privileges which still exist within Britain�s traditional class system. The thought would appear to be, it is better to be a large fish in a small pond than a small fish in a large sea. How far such resistance can go, is easily portrayed by examining the democratic rights of Britons who choose to be resident in another European land. An Expat, permanently living in Germany, loses his/her right to vote for the British government. At the same time, as a Briton, he/she has no right to take part in elections for the German government. The result is, that those who wish the most to support a free democratic Europe, are punished for doing so. Of course the way Europe is currently being run, gives sceptics every chance to pour salt into open wounds. A common currency without a common tax and social system cannot work with any great deal of success. A Briton, who sees how German taxpayers are now expected to work until the age of 67, in order to pay the pensions of Greek pilots, who have retired and receive pensions from the age of 49, is unlikely to be enthusiastic about doing the same. Also, the way in which those who are responsible in Brussels are spending money for countries outside of EU, while at the same time member states are struggling under unpayable debts, is certainly not an encouragement to take part. Let the EU first set a sound fundament for financial and social co-operation, instead of dancing in the clouds. Then there might be the chance for pro-Europeans in Britain to take over the national Rudder. |

"The Inside Story" takes a deeper look into technology news by interviewing the people behind the story. We talk to the sources involved in the news and explore important and interesting issues.
The Inside Story discusses the mobile graphics processing unit, which has rapidly become critical to smartphones' ability to produce better and better graphics, with Dave Shreiner.
Dave is director of graphics and GPU computing for leading chip designer ARM Ltd. He is an expert in computer graphics and has written books on OpenGL programming.
Sam Madden is a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, where he works on projects including the C-Store column-oriented database system and the CarTel mobile sensor network system. He has a PhD in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley, and was named one of Technology Review's Top 35 Under 35 in 2005. He's the recipient of several awards, including a US National Science Foundation CAREER award and a Sloan Foundation Fellowship.
The Inside Story interviewed Sam Madden about his review of Big Data in IEEE Internet Computing magazine last year ("From Databases to Big Data," May/June 2012, pp. 4–6).
The Inside Story discusses the numerous serious security issues that have affected Java this year with software-security expert Gary McGraw.
Gary serves as chief technology officer at Cigital Inc., a major software-security consultancy. He is the author of eight best-selling books on software security and more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications.
His research interests include software security; software exploits; online game security; mobile-code security, especially involving Java and .NET; and malicious code and the technologies that can counter it.
David Kasik is a computer graphics expert who is a senior technical fellow in visualization and interactive techniques with Boeing. His research explores new ways to visualize large amounts of geometric and nongeometric data.
Kasik has been involved with computer graphics since 1969, via work in a scientific laboratory, an automotive business, and an aerospace company. This has given him a different perspective on the technology than that found in the arts and entertainment industries, which so heavily influence the field today.
He has written on the history of computer-graphics advances and where the technology is headed today. He says the field is currently at an innovation plateau but is ready for the next wave of innovation.
Distinguished research professor Joseph Mitola III, currently vice president for the research enterprise at the Stevens Institute of Technology, is well known for his research in developing software-defined radio and cognitive radio systems. Both ideas were not seen as practical at the time but have since become important, mainstream radio approaches.
His current focus is multifunction RF, which would combine radio communications and the radar technologies used to track aircraft. Multiple small radar stations would replace the relatively few stations near major airports. They could provide both traditional radar and high-speed public radio-communications services. Mitola said this could bring broadband services to sparsely populated areas and add reliability to the nationwide radar system.
The Inside Story interviewed Mitola about multifunction RF.

Take a look at this close-up of the obverse (heads side) of the Lincoln penny. Apart from minor tweaking, this side hasn't changed in over a century, a sign of Abraham Lincoln's deep hold as an American hero.
Try to imagine this is the first time you've seen Lincoln's face on the penny. Try to imagine it's the first time you've seen any American leader on any circulating U.S. coin.
That was the situation in the summer of 1909, when citizens got their first look at Lincoln on the new penny. Previously, almost every U.S. coin in circulation had shown a symbol of "Liberty" on the obverse — an idealized female figure (originally the "goddess of liberty"). An actual person had never been depicted. U.S. coins were supposed to signal the ideal that animated the body politic, not to herald the greatness of an individual.
The "Indian-head" penny, minted between 1859 and 1909, hadn't shown an actual Indian, but a white female figure wearing a feather headdress — with "Liberty" spelled out on the headband. As one magazine explained in 1859, "the obverse presents an ideal head of AMERICA. The drooping plumes of the North American Indian give it the character of North America. The head is intended as an illustration of 'Liberty.'"
At the moment of most intense Lincoln enthusiasm — his 100th birthday in February 1909 — the government announced its initial plans for a new Lincoln coin. Yet many people were reluctant to part with their long-familiar penny.
Some believed that even their most beloved Chief Magistrate should be kept off the metal currency. Putting Lincoln or anyone else on a stamp, or on paper money, was fine, they felt. The solidity and permanence of coinage, however, suggested caution.
The New Orleans Picayune feared setting a precedent that would haunt future generations. Presidents in power might use coinage to help turn themselves into quasi-monarchs, provoking "the transmogrification of the Republic into an empire."
The New York Times reminded readers that when the U.S. Senate passed a bill in 1792 to put George Washington on the one-dollar coin, the House rejected the idea as "a feature of monarchy." Since the "American Indian typifies the love of liberty and the possession of it," the Times campaigned to block the new coin — at the very same time that the paper was avidly promoting the Lincoln centennial events and praising his greatness.
"The idea of further honoring the memory of LINCOLN in this way," said the Times, "is absurd. That most modest and humble of our Presidents would never have consented to change a long-established custom by putting his own profile on the cent… The Indian must remain."
The Times soon realized that resistance to the Lincoln penny was futile. The Theodore Roosevelt administration didn't need congressional approval to make the change, since the Indian-head cent had been circulating for more than 25 years.
By summer, the 12 sub-treasuries in American cities were getting frenzied orders from banks anticipating heavy customer interest in the new coin. All the commotion showed the Times, as it satirically noted, "the Lincoln penny is to start a war of extermination on the one bearing the bust of the red man." Indian-head pennies would still circulate, but the Mint would no longer make them. In short order, people would be hiding them in drawers.
On August 2, thousands of men and boys lined up at the sub-treasuries to get the maximum allotment of 25 pennies per person. In Washington, D. C., 3,000 customers made it up to the disbursement window on the first day. Instantly a speculative market took over the streets, with newsboys selling pennies for up to a nickel each. By this point, nearly everyone seems to have loved the Lincoln coin.
One Lincoln disciple, 31-year-old Carl Sandburg, countered the Times claim that Lincoln himself would have disapproved. The "great, good man," said Sandburg, would probably be "perfectly willing" for his face to adorn the penny. True, as symbol-in-chief for "the people," Lincoln might object to being put on a fancier gold or silver coin. But he'd likely smile at seeing himself on "the cheapest and most common coin in the country."
Having fought the new penny in February 1909, the Times joined the applause in August. With Lincoln's "face relaxed" and showing "a benign expression," the paper conceded, the immigrant medalist Victor David Brenner had delivered a "handsome" coin. "The entire design is noteworthy for its simplicity of line."
It was soon obvious that people liked this coin so much because it was so artfully designed. Brenner had given the obverse a spacious layout, which allowed the word "Liberty" plenty of room to catch one's attention in the open area to Lincoln's left.
Brenner positioned the coin's date lower than "Liberty," leaving another wide-open space for Lincoln to gaze into. And Brenner managed to invoke the president's whole body. This is not a "Lincoln-head" penny. The shoulders and chest convey his authority and equanimity.
If the Lincoln penny ever succumbs to changing times — its utility in the marketplace is already being widely questioned, with some calling it "worthless" — the nation will have lost a beautiful and historic artifact designed for daily, hand-to-hand exchange.

text: New Zealand played a key role in achieving the successful agreement of guidelines on limiting the impact of deep water fishing on fragile fisheries and habitats, Fisheries Minister Jim Anderton said today. Sixty nine countries, including New Zealand, participated in the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisations two-year negotiation process leading up to the acceptance of the guidelines last week. The successful negotiations were chaired by New Zealand Fisheries Ministry international manager Jane Willing. She said the agreement lays out guidelines that fishing nations should use when operating in high-seas areas outside of the national waters, where many deep sea fisheries are located. "As the agreement states, deep-sea areas need to be rigorously managed to identify and protect vulnerable ecosystems." The agreement provides a range of guidance on the sustainable use of deep sea fisheries, which includes fishing nations assessing fishing by their fleets to determine its impact. Deep sea fishing should cease in areas where significant adverse impact on vulnerable ecosystems is taking place. Conservation and management measures should be put in place to achieve the sustainable use and long-term conservation of deep sea fish stocks. The guidelines will also outline steps for improving the information on the location and status of vulnerable deep sea ecosystems. Jim Anderton said the New Zealand delegation was to the fore of the negotiations for the agreement. "New Zealand is one of the few states that has practical experience of managing deep seas stocks. It was with this knowledge and experience that the delegation was able to ensure the agreed guidelines were workable. "Our delegates' participation and influence in the agreement was considerable and showed the immense commitment we have made to the conservation of our own deep seas ecosystems." In April 2007, New Zealand closed 17 areas within its Exclusive Economic Zone to deep sea bottom trawling, providing protection to an area of seabed habitat equal to 1.2 million square kilometres, or an area four times the landmass of New Zealand. This is the largest single marine protection initiative anywhere in the world and accounts for 32% of New Zealand's Exclusive Economic Zone.

Comments about Nexera Nocce Wardrobe Armoire in Truffle Finish:
This is the product we need and what we hoped to buy. It is as described. The only problem we have with this is for the price we paid we expected more (ie. not pressed wood and a bit sturdier). It's on par quality wise with what you will find in the major retail chains. Good product just not quite worth the price.
