National audit reveals improvements in lung cancer care
Lung cancer care in the UK is continuing to make incremental improvements, according to a major NHS audit.
Patients are benefiting from improved standards of treatment - including more receiving surgery aimed at curing their disease, according to the latest instalment of the National Lung Cancer Audit.
Cancer Research UK said the improvements, which build on last years results, "are to be applauded" but need to be sustained.
The first audit was published in 2004 with the aim of allowing individual NHS trusts and Cancer Networks to compare their record on delivering treatment with that of others across the UK.
By pooling their data, the institutions are able to learn from one another, improving their standard of clinical care and, ultimately, patient outcomes.
The latest audit is based on data for 38,500 patients first seen in hospitals in Great Britain in 2011, accounting for around 93 per cent of total new cases.
The review shows that three in five lung cancer patients now receive active treatment such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy, compared with less than half (45 per cent) in 2005.
Around 15 per cent of all patients diagnosed with lung cancer or mesothelioma now receive an operation to try to cure their condition, prolong their life or at least alleviate symptoms, compared with nine per cent in 2005.
While the overall surgical figures may seem low, most lung cancer patients go to hospital with very advanced cancer, meaning a curative operation is no longer an option.
In total, 96.2 per cent of lung cancer cases were discussed by a specialist team of health professionals - known as multidisciplinary teams - compared with 95 per cent in 2009, and only 86 per cent at the audit's inception.
NHS guidelines state that everyone diagnosed with lung cancer should be under the care of a multidisciplinary team, as they are key to accurate diagnoses and choosing the best treatment.
Dr Mick Peake, who led the audit, said: "The performance of hospitals has improved consistently year on year over the period of the audit and this is making a really positive impact on patient care and outcomes."
But he said the level of variation shown in the report means that there is still "significant room for improvement" to bring all hospitals up to the standard of the best.
Sarah Woolnough, executive director of policy and information at Cancer Research UK, welcomed the continued improvements in lung cancer care highlighted in the audit, which she said are to be applauded.
But she said lung cancer survival rates remain extremely low, with only nine per cent of adults in England surviving their lung cancer for five years or more, and variation in services persist in some parts of the country.
"Progress in treating lung cancer must be maintained, so we must all continue our efforts to improve services, alongside sustained research, prevention and early diagnosis to better tackle this horrible disease," she added.

Jason.bonham necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 31 diseños de 9 diseñadores freelance.
Inspired, fledgling entrepreneur seeking super-creative design mega-squad to be part of the next big thing...
First and foremost I appreciate your time and look forward to working with you. I'm closing in on the launch of a new site that provides a similar service to sites like eLance but for professional service providers. The site has amazing potential so your design will be the front of today's biggest no brainer!
What is it?
CityBidz.com is the eBay equivalent for professional service providers. We take customers through an easy three step process of creating a bid request. This bid request includes photos and video to provide contractors (CityBidderz) all the necessary information to submit proposals. These proposals are then presented to the customer with pricing and job description along with links to CityBidderz' profile pages. Viola, customers have just received multiple bids without making a single phone call! On the flip side, our CityBidderz can now fill their work week without driving all over town giving "Free Quotes."
Who is it for?
CityBidz.com is for everyone! Whether you'd like a price for work in one of our more than 30 categories or you're a qualified service professional, CityBidz.com serves a purpose for you.
Who is it NOT for?
Aliens and mythical sea creatures (sorry Nessy)
CityBidz.com has a purpose for everyone with two distinct user experiences. In the CityBidz world there are:
Customers: Users who engage the site to receive bids on the work they need done. This side of the site has almost zero friction. It will be in a three easy step fashion so anyone who engages the site will take the call to action and post their work.
Contractors (CityBidderz): These are skilled labor professionals who subscribe monthly to the site for notification alerts when work is posted. This is the real function side of the site. All internal pages will follow the same look / feel as the homepage.
Site design concepts include but not limited to:
- Homepage has two basic purposes
1. Sell the sites purpose and highlight its ease of use
2. Present two clear paths or call to action
a. To enter a project and receive bids
b. Become a contractor on the site
I'd like to see:
-Lime green / black / white color scheme
-Rounded corners on all containers
-Big buttons / large font
-Pop-up data entry for things like login etc.
-Live action section where news / alerts / site content can be updated daily. This section would include things like:
1. Number of contractors who signed up daily
2. Blog postings by contractors
3. Number of jobs available for contactors to work on
4. Daily Dealz presented by contractors to keep users returning to the site. A Groupon if you will for service providers.
5. Featured contractor of the day / week etc.
6. You get my drift
For the call to action buttons I'm considering a 'Got Work' / 'Need Work' concepts.
'Got Work' would be the casual users call to action to post their need to, for example, have a cat door installed. Below the tag line would be room for text to further explain.
'Need Work' would be the contractor (CityBidderz) call to action. Again, room for text to further explain.
Priority... EASE OF USE.
Home Page!!!
The idea for CityBidz is not completely original so branding is key. Once a user arrives at the site it needs to look fun / inviting and very easy to use.
This homepage is more of a sales / pitch page. The login will be done via popup window so very few if any form fields. See the existing site for navigation options.
AGAIN, the home page presents two clear paths!
http://www.citybidz.com - we recently overlaid the concept onto a prebuilt site. The original site look / feel is attached.
http://www.thumbtack.com - this is a competitor site that does a great job with look and feel. I like the cleanliness of the site and it also presents two clear paths.
http://www.hellohandy.com - a recent addition to the market. I like the icons and general contractor theme. CityBidz will have over 30 categories so it doesn't have to be construction contractor centric.
http://www.gogoinflight.com - I like the color theme of this site and the logo was inspirational in the CityBidz logo (attached).
http://www.elance.com - I'm providing this as an example of the sites function. Basically all the function of eLance with the fun of one of the sites listed above.
http://citybidz.com/logo-large.png - link to the logo in PNG
Attachments include:
Pics of CityBidz original concepts. I like the look and feel but the function was the reason we purchased an off the shelf site.

She is accepting her award for winning the Afton trail race 50k in Minnesota in 4:24:11.
Talk about envy. I KNOW that this is always where women go wrong. They see a picture of a woman and think THAT is how I want to look and become unsatisfied when they continue to look, well, just like themselves. If I were wise, I would say "Eve is beautiful and fast and I can also be beautiful and fast but may never look exactly like her". But I am not wise. I am, as always, foolish and get angry at myself for not sticking to my strict diet plan (gosh darn body getting hungry - why do I give in to you?!) and my unrealistic goal of "looking like Eve".
SR had the day off today and offered to pace me in "Figure 8" intervals on the trails in the woods behind our apartment. Well, you know I LOVE intervals, because they are so effective, but I also dread them and start acting like a lunatic if anyone gets near me before I start running them. As SR and I were warming up, I actually started crying, and even sort of accusing SR: "If I were as skinny as Eve, you know I could run 5ks faster!! Why do people tell me I need to weigh MORE to get faster?!?!?"
He always runs away without saying anything when my lunacy starts. Here he is taking a couple pictures of me, still with tears in my eyes before we start the intervals (I am hopeless).
So here is what we did:
8 x approx 1 km intervals each in 4 minutes. This consisted of out-back in one direction, out & back in another direction in the shape of an 8 on the trails and then repeat. 2 minute breaks. Half way through I felt a turtle head. So I squatted down and SR started yelling "go! go! go! 30 seconds" (of course this made me mad, but I love how he pushes me to keep on the schedule. The way I expressed this at the time was "give me a fucking break! I'm taking a shit here!" I think he knew this meant I was glad he was there).
Okay, so the interval session went really, really well and was amazing fun. SR seemed pleasantly surprised that I could consistently run just under 1km in 4 minutes all 8 times. I was surprised, too. But then again I wasn't. I mean, why do I get so down on myself? And even if I couldn't run fast intervals, there is still no reason to get down on myself.
Anyway we are planning to do it every week we can. Hopefully I can run further and further in each of those four minute intervals as time goes on.
As usual, after I get done running intervals, life just seems to make more sense and I can look at my little obsessions and see that yes, I am a fool. But then again, part of me is thankful that I have my obsessions, which help keep me fast and in shape. I have been converted into a lifelong runner of intervals by my husband. And I love him for sticking by me, despite the fact that I don't look like Eve.
When I run intervals, I have noticed I tend to like songs where the lead singer is being tortured in some way. Actually during our last marathon it was a song about drowning and today it was about sinking into quicksand. The song was Quicksand by La Roux. And if you are just too annoyed by La Roux, then I will recommend Some Girls by Nenna Lavonne.

In less than 30 days, the ROUTE 66 RV Network in Canada has grown to 15 locations that represent over $100 million in RV sales, parts and service. And, according to a press release, the group continues to strengthen.
Rob Merrill, ROUTE 66 partner, noted, "Quality dealers attract quality dealers. Not only are these Canadian dealers very solid business operators with impressive dealerships, they have been serving their community's RVing needs, on the average, for over 32 years. That's certainly reassuring to customers knowing that they'll be there when they need them."
In the last couple of weeks ROUTE 66 has added five new locations in Canada, including:
• Smith's RV Centre – Jason Johnstone – Thunder Bay, Ontario
• Outdoor Travel – Ken & Andy Whiting – Hamilton, Ontario
• Roulettes A.S. Levesque – Andre Levesque – Ste-Helenes/Trios-Rivieres, Quebec
• Roulettes Gilbert – Andre Levesque – Chateauguay, Quebec
Andre Levesque, president of A.S. Levesque, sees the growing strength of the group being a major benefit to his dealerships' customers as they travel.
"RVs typically don't experience mechanical issues close to home, it's usually while out traveling and using the RV," he said. "With this solid group of service-minded dealers I can rest assured that my customers will be well taken care of in both Canada and the U.S."
Smith's RV Centre's general manager, Jason Johnstone, recognizes the group's buying opportunities as the network's footprint grows in Canada.
"Anytime you associate yourself with an organization that is larger than yourself you'll realize greater economies of scale in your purchasing," he said. "These advantages not only result in financial benefits for the dealership but also translate into great values for our customers."
Outdoor Travel President Ken Whiting believes the engagement with ROUTE 66 in Canada will create a unique competitive advantage for his dealership.
"As a ROUTE 66 dealer we now have over 150 satellite locations in North America ready to help my customers as they travel," he said. "No other RV dealer group provides a universal brand, like the ROUTE 66 shield, that offers RVers peace of mind knowing that they've got a friend close by willing to help."
Additional dealers will be added to the ROUTE 66 RV Network in Canada with "the recommendation from these and other future member dealers," according to Merrill. He noted that each dealership's territory will be clearly defined to ensure every dealership enjoys market exclusivity in offering the network's unique dealer and consumer program benefits in the U.S. and Canada.
The ROUTE 66 RV Network is comprised of RV dealers in North America with nearly 150 locations in 44 states and provinces and promises.

An internet security start-up reveals a plan to create mobile data centers out of old container ships. From the article:
It seems a company dubbed IDS is getting set to change the way we look at traditional data centers. The San Francisco-based startup is reportedly about to build 22 new centers, but rather than looking for unused closets and underground caverns to store hardware, it's planning to erect said data centers on decommissioned cargo ships.
Wow, this is an interesting idea. It may sounds crazy but you will end up saving lots of money on air conditioning and other factors.

Daoist Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong (Qigong)
The Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong is a classical method of mind-body cultivation. As the name suggests, this Neigong (i.e., Qigong) set uses a pair of wooden implements in practice – the Taiji Ruler (taiji chi 太極尺) and the Taiji Stick (taiji bang 太極棒). Although the name of the set uses the same name as Taijiquan (Tai Chi Ch'uan 太極拳) the martial art, the Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong developed independently of Taijiquan. Other names for this set of exercises include the Guiding Qi Needle (dao qi zhen 導氣針), Stilling Mind Needle (ding xin zhen 定心針), and Heaven Earth Precious Ruler (qian kun bao chi 乾坤寶尺).
Origins – The Sleeping Immortal
by Dr. Henry McCann
Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong is attributed to the Daoist Immortal Chen Tuan (陳摶). Also known as Chen Xiyi (陳希夷) and Chen Dan (陳丹),
Chen Tuan(陳摶)
he was born in Zhenyuan, Henan Province in the last half of 9th century – the same birth location as Lao Zi (Lao Tzu). Between 900 and 930 Chen wandered around various mountains seeking instruction from Daoists and other recluses, a common practice of his day. He also stayed awhile on Wu Dang Mountain where he learned Daoist meditation and Daoyin techniques. Other tradition says that Chen was taught directly by Ma Yi Dao Zhe, the 'Hemp Cloud Daoist', and Lü Dongbin, the grand patron of Daoist alchemy. In 937 Chen was documented to be in Sichuan, and in the early 940s restored Yun Tai Guan monastery on Mount Hua in Shaanxi. Chen eventually died in 989 at age of 118.
As a result of his deep Daoist studies and personal cultivation, Chen developed great insights into the nature of the universe and the Yijing (I Ching, Book of Changes). Chen was said to have developed the famous Taiji symbol and was renowned for his accomplishments in mediation and Inner Alchemy. He developed the Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong, as well as a set of Daoyin exercises that harmonize the body with the 24 seasonal nodes of the Chinese calendar. He was also a master of Sleeping Yoga, hence his nickname the 'Sleeping Immortal'.
The Practice
The word Neigong means "inner practice" (內功). While Qigong is a modern term that refers to a wide range of breathing and movement exercises, Neigong is an earlier term that describes practices that build internal Qi, sometimes associated with either Inner Alchemy or Internal Martial Arts. The Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong uses these two implements, one representing Yin and the other Yang, to help the practitioner develop internal power.
There are several sets of exercises that comprise the total repertoire of Stick and Ruler. The student starts with exercises comprised of breathing patterns, physical movement and visualizations, that strengthen and build sensation of Qi in the Dan Tian (丹田), the area of Qi cultivation in the lower abdomen. Over time the student then uses the Neigong to circulate Qi through the channels of the arms and legs, and some of the Extraordinary Vessels such as the Du, Ren and Dai. Then, later exercises develop a connection between the practitioner and Pre-Heaven Qi. Overall the Stick and Ruler Neigong is a complete system of health cultivation. Taiji Stick and Ruler Neigong is especially useful to professional acupuncturist, chiropractors, bodyworkers/healthcare providers, musicians, athletes and keyboard users.
Benefits from this Unique Training:
1 The Taiji Stick and Ruler practice helps to prevent overuse injuries as it strengthens the wrists, tendons and muscles.
2 It develops hand, wrist and arm strength. If you notice that you are losing hand and arm strength in performing daily tasks, such as, turning the tap, opening jars and bottles, you will find a significant improvement after practicing the Taiji stick and ruler practice.
3 It teaches you to feel and integrate your core strength with arm movements.
4 It improves coordination and balance.
5 Taiji Stick and Ruler practice will improve your circulation. No more cold hands and feet!
6 This practice will improve your digestion. Since your digestion system is the keystone for the rest of the physiology of the body, one can extend this to improving all systems of the body.
7 Learn to nourish your QI! This practice will have lasting effects on your nervous system and your capacity to relax more profoundly.
8 Practicing the Taiji Stick and Ruler neigong regularly will improve your internal power and Taiji quan skill without you even being aware of it.
9 Cultivate a quiet mind and still Heart.
Cost: $85 (this includes the cost of the Taiji stick)
$50 for those repeating or already have a stick

Pool Noodle Water Workout
The old pool noodle has multiple uses, one of which is to provide floatation and stability during water workouts. Here's a small sample of just a few exercises you can do with a pool noodle.
Lay out flat in the water, with your toes hooked onto a ladder tread or safety rope. Extend your body fully, stretching your legs and arms in opposit directions. While lifting your head out of water with a deep breath, push down on the noodle, while keeping your body straight (like a plank of wood). Hold the position, and exhale as your allow the noodle to float up again.
Hold your pool noodle with arms shoulder width apart, while standing in chest deep water. take a deep breath and push the pool noodle beneath the water while keeping locked arms. Lift one leg straight back behind you, keeping your knee locked. Exhale as you relax your arms and lift your head, bringing your leg back to the starting position. Repeat for the opposite leg.
Hold onto the pool noodle with both hands, with your elbows resting comfortably. Take a deep breath and raise your knees up to the chest. Hold the pose, and slowly exhale as you bring your legs vertical again. Twisting your legs will add a workout to the obliques.
Wrap the noodle around your back with your elbows resting on the noodle and your hands gripping each end. Lean forward with a running motion and drive your knees toward the surface. Alternate between fast, low drives and longer, slower high drives.

Essex and Hampshire were thwarted by the weather at Colchester as rain completely washed out the opening day's play in the LV= County Championship.
In between heavy showers, the sun occasionally appeared as if to mock the groundstaff in their mopping-up operations but, in the end, the umpires decided at 2.50pm that no play was possible.
If, as predicted, the weather is set fair for Monday, Hampshire will seek to make up for lost time and continue their push for promotion.
They currently sit second in the Division Two table, four points behind Worcestershire and a point ahead of Surrey in their quest to claim a top-two spot, which would see them promoted at the end of the season.
Both counties have yet to announce their teams but missing from the Essex team will be 20 year-old left-arm pace bowler Reece Topley.
The fear is that he may have a recurrence of a stress fracture in the back that ruled him out of action for the early part of the season and he is due to have a scan within the next 48 hours.
If that proves the case, it will be a bitter blow for Topley, who has collected 25 wickets at a shade over 20 runs each and is Essex's leading wicket taker in the competition.
He has also played a prominent part in the county's surge towards the quarter-finals of the NatWest t20 Blast competition, although he missed the latest success over Kent at the weekend.
It was the first time in three years that he has not featured in the competition.
Reflecting on the washout, Essex head coach Paul Grayson said: "This is a big game for both sides and we feel that we can still catch the top two.
"So to lose the day has been frustrating for everyone but the outfield is saturated so there was no chance of play.
"But there are still three days of cricket and we can still get a result."
Hampshire captain Jimmy Adams said: "It's obviously disappointing that we couldn't get the match under way but when you have the weather we've had, it's not easy for the groundstaff on these outgrounds.

these look just like the item photos, but the description does not indicate that the birds have cardstock between their legs. the color between their legs is a light yellow, so they won't look as good on paper of other colors. also, the image shows little round beads on all the shells, but i hate them. i think they're supposed to look like pearls, but none of the shells pictured actually produce pearls in real life. i think they're tacky, and wish i could order this set without them.

Is Google A Search Monopoly?
Redefining What Search Engine Monopoly Means:
According to Search Engine Roundtable, Google now owns a monstrous 70+% share of the entire search market. (Image is courtesy of Hitwise
The question whether or not Google is a monopoly is a sound one. And, inherently, the answer I can come up with is, "yes" it is a monopoly, based on the proof the Hitwise image provides (see above). Google has been steadily drowning the competition for over two years, each year pushing them (Yahoo, Live, and Ask) further in the undertow. But are they are true monopoly?
The definitions of monopoly are as follows:
"Exclusive control by one group of the means of producing or selling a commodity or service"
- "A market containing a single firm"
- Investment Dictionary: "A situation in which a single company or group owns all or nearly all of the market for a given type of product or service. By definition, monopoly is characterized by an absence of competition – which often results in high prices and inferior products."
It's the last definition that gives me pause. Based on this definition, one could go either way on the monopoly vote. And, based on the last definition, my answer changes. I don't think Google has a monopoly, just a better products and services that a populous prefers. They've revolutionized search and the clarity of search. Google has competition in the market (albeit poor competition in the populous' eyes). Moreover, this competition produces inferior products and services.
So, if others will continue to insist that Google is a monopoly, then we will have to redefine monopoly for the Digital Age. Something to the effect of:
"Dominant market control in an individual industry, made up of several sub-industries, in which market competition produces inferior, under-caliber products and services."
There are, as I see it, only three possibilities from here and monopoly-hood:
- Google continues on its current path. And, by 2010, will have effectively crushed all their competition, owning over 90+% of the search market share. Read this as: Google Officially Becomes A Monopoly
- Yahoo does eventually, team up with MSN/Live (MicroHoo). This partnership creates enough innovation within search and its sub-industries to cause a slight reverse in trends. Google will still own 50+% of the search market share.
- A new search engine firm will emerge and help create destabilization within the search market. (The most unlikely of the three)
Personally, I'm rooting for the second or third option, because, frankly, it'll make my life pretty boring if all I have to do is think: WWGD (What Would Google Do). I'm not saying that Google is/will become Skynet or the Matrix, but it could happen. Anything we can do to help shake up the market is a good thing.
UPDATE: 10/08/08: Googleopoly
Check out this post by Rusty Brick (a.ka. Barry) posted on SE Roundtable. More great information about whether Google is truly a monopoly or not.

Talk:Unified Extensible Firmware Interface
ESP mount point /boot <-> /boot/efi
I think we should decide on a standard here. This article (and others) always use /boot/efi/, but:
- the gummiboot setup tool expects it to be mounted to /boot by default (this is only available in the [testing] package atm). Considering that the setup tool is called in post_install/post_upgrade, this will simply not work for people using /boot/efi.
- the next systemd version has a nice feature, as it will automatically create an automount unit to mount the ESP partition to /boot (it knows the ESP from the bootloader, see http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/BootLoaderInterface )
- Does using /boot/efi actually provide any kind of benefit? The boot partition has always been mounted to /boot and I don't see any reason to change that.
Other opinions? If there are no objections, I would change the paths to /boot in the corresponding articles. 65kid (talk) 15:41, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- This sounds like a sensible approach. Would it be worth adding a section on migrating; just to ease the pain?

>=512 MiB for the UEFISYS partition?
I was never told to make it 512 MiB or more, and right now it's 47.86 MiB and it works fine. Are there any other particular reasons for making it that relatively big? /// (t) 18:27, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
Microsoft Documentation mentions the minimum partition size for FAT32 to be 512 MiB. UEFI Spec. in some places mentions just FAT but in some places specifically mentions FAT32. Combining both the cases, having a >=512 MiB FAT32 (not FAT16/FAT12) partition UEFISYS is the best bet for all fimrwares out there, some of which may not support <512 MiB and/or FAT16 partition. -- Keshav P R (talk) 16:18, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
Where do you have this information from? See my post, where I give links to the only resources that I found which give a minimum size for FAT32 (and which is much smaller). --Calestyo (talk) 23:35, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Questionable edits
Buhman has totally changed the steps to create a bootable UEFI USB. Persaonlly, I find the new steps to be much more comples than before, and to a pretty terrible job helping the user understand what is actually being achieved. Buhman's first edit says that he "excommunicated the 7z crap" or something like that. Wouldn't it be better to leave a perfectly usable option and make note of alternate methods rather than "excommunicating" what is there? I vote that these instructions should be reverted, or at the very least (heavily) commented. Thoughts anyone? -- Curtis (talk) 20:00, 16 Dec 2012 (UTC)
- I'm sorry I don't really have the time to revise those edits now, but the policy on the ArchWiki is to always let the end user choose which method to use in order to do something, never hiding anything, so if you really feel that the previous procedure was better, please add it back in a separate section. -- Kynikos (talk) 12:03, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
- I think that the line in the Bootable UEFI USB section that says "Install refind-efi" is ambiguous. Does this mean chroot to the filesystem and then install it? The reason I'm trying to setup the bootable USB is because I don't have an arch install running. Or, should I boot the media using some other means and then install the package? A list of commands would be more helpful. -- Framps (talk) 23:09, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
Faulty command in Remove_UEFI_boot_support_from_ISO
I am the developer of xorriso. A few weeks ago i came to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1280444 Although the user reported no success with my proposal i still think that this option is wrong from the view of the combination of bash and xorriso:
-output "~/archiso.iso"
I believe it should be
-output ~/archiso.iso
-output "$HOME/archiso.iso"
so that xorriso sees something like /home/thomas/archiso.iso and not ~/archiso.iso.
If the normal shell of archlinux is supposed to resolve "~/archiso.iso" rather than passing it to the started program, then this bug report is invalid, of course. One can simply try: echo "~/some_file" and look what will be printed to stdout. Scdbackup (talk) 12:34, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
