Refers to the angles and proportions of a diamond. The cut of a diamond refers to the exact proportions, quality of polish and the arrangement of a diamond's facets. While nature determines a diamond's clarity, carat weight and color, the hand of a master craftsman is necessary to release the diamonds' fire and sparkle. A diamond has facets that allow light to enter it, become refracted, and exit in a rainbow of colors.
When a diamond is cut to ideal proportions, is carefully polished and has exact symmetry, light will then reflect from one facet to another and disperse through the top of the stone, resulting in a display of brilliance and fire. Diamonds that are cut too deep or too shallow, lose or leak light through the side or bottom, resulting in less brilliance, fire, scintillation and value. The cut can affect the value of a diamond by up to 35%!
Refers to the degree to which a diamond is colorless. The farther from colorless that a diamond's grade is, the less rare and therefore less valuable it is. Diamonds are graded on a color scale established by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), which ranges from D (Colorless) to Z. Icy winter whites (D-I) look stunning in white gold or platinum. Warmer colored diamonds (J-Z) are more desirable when set in yellow gold. Color differences can be very subtle and grading is done under controlled lighting and compared against a 'master' for accuracy. This color chart is representative of the color grades of a diamond.
Refers to the presence of inclusions in a diamond. Inclusions are natural identifying characteristics such as minerals or fractures, that appear while diamonds are being formed. They may look like tiny crystals, clouds or feathers. Inclusions are usually viewed at 10x magnification. The position of inclusions can greatly affect the value of a diamond. Some inclusions can be hidden by a mounting, thus having little effect on the beauty of a diamond. An inclusion in the middle or top of a diamond could impact the dispersion of light, making the diamond less brilliant. Inclusions are ranked on a scale of perfection known as the clarity scale. The scale ranges from F (Flawless) to I (Included) and is based on the visibility of inclusions at 10X magnification.
A diamond's weight is measured in what is known as a 'carat', which is a small unit of measurement equal to 200 milligrams. Carat is not a measure of a diamond's size, but rather a measure of a diamond's weight. One carat can also be divided in 100 points. A .75 carat diamond is the same as 75 points or 3/4 carat diamond. Because larger diamonds are found less frequently in nature, they are more valuable. Therefore, a 1 carat diamond will cost more than twice a 1/2 carat diamond, assuming other characteristics are similar. The most important thing to remember when it comes to a diamond's carat weight is that it is not the only factor that determines a diamond's value. The diagram to the right shows the size of various carat weights of a diamond in relation to each other.

The Reseller Control Panel comes built in with a customizable Payment Collection agent which you can use to ensure timely collection of Payments from your Customers and Sub-Resellers. It is important to understand the different financial instruments available within the Control Panel before we delve into a discussion of the Payment Collection module.
Your Customers and your Sub-Resellers in the course of their operations will owe you money for specific reasons. These reasons can be as follows:
They place an Order.
You enter a Debit Note in their account.
A payment made by them in the past charges back
You add an Invoice in their account
There are two types of transactions which you can use to collect money from your customers and Sub-Resellers. These are Invoices and Debit Notes. You have the ability to raise Invoices and Debit Notes yourself, as well as the system will occasionally raise them for you in specific circumstances. For instance when your Customer places an Order an Invoice for that Order is automatically raised by the system.
An Invoice and Debit note are quite different transactions. An Invoice is always related to an underlying Order, and may actually have some action of the Order dependant on the Invoice. For instance an Invoice for Renewal of an Order, has the action of renewal dependant on the Invoice. A Debit Note on the other hand is not related directly to any Order. Both of them share some common characteristics with respect to Payment Collection. An Invoice however has extra and more powerful Payment collection parameters.
Reminder Days
Let us first examine the single shared Payment Collection parameter that an Invoice and Debit Note have. Both an Invoice and a Debit Note have one field in common, namely the Reminder Days. This is a simple Payment Collection parameter which allows you to send a Payment Reminder to your Customers and Sub-Resellers for their Pending Payments. Every Invoice and Debit Note has a Reminder Days value. This includes Invoices and Debit Notes that we automatically generate as well as Invoices and Debit Notes which you feed in.
Reminder Days is basically the number of days the System waits before sending the next Payment Reminder for a particular Invoice/Debit Note, to your Customers. If for instance the Reminder Days value is set to 5 days for a particular Invoice of a Customer, then the Customer will receive a reminder to pay for that Invoice EVERY 5 days, until the Invoice is FULLY Paid. The Reminder days value is irrelevant after an Invoice or Debit Note is fully paid.
Default Reminder Days for Invoices
To begin with you can set a default Reminder Days value per Product, which will be used by the System when it automatically generates Invoices for that Product. This can be done from the Settings -> Finance & Billing -> Payment Collection Settings. If for instance you set the default Payment Reminder Days for Product A as 10 days, then for EVERY Invoice generated for an Order of Product A, will have a default Invoice Reminder days set to 10 days.
Default Reminder Days for Debit Notes
You cannot set a default Reminder days value for Debit Notes. This is a hard-coded value, set to 5 days, for ALL Debit Notes. Therefore any Debit Note that the system generates automatically will contain a Payment Reminder Days value of 5 days to begin with.
For any Invoice or Debit Note that you add manually you can specify the Reminder days during the creation of that Invoice or Debit Note. Simply point to Customers / Sub-Resellers -> Billing -> Add Invoice / Add Debit Note and you can specify the Reminder days for that Invoice/Debit Note while adding it.
Reminder days can be an extremely powerful feature, and it ensures that your Customers/Sub-Resellers are constantly reminded about any pending payments until they are cleared.
The Payment Collection Reminder emails would be sent only after the request associated with the Invoice is completed, while the payment is still pending. If both the payment as well as the request are pending, then no notification will be sent regarding the pending payment.
Reminder days are also the only Payment collection feature available for a Debit Note. Remaining features in the Payment Collection system are only available for Invoices. Read on to find out about these.
Invoice Specific Payment Collection features
Apart from Reminder days there are three other fields that Invoices can have to facilitate Payment Collection. These fields are:
Request Cancellation Date
Order Suspension Date
Order Deletion Date
Note that these fields are available only if the Invoice is unpaid. They are not available for Paid Invoices since there is no Payment Collection pending for paid Invoices.
Request Cancellation Date: This field is available to any Fully unpaid Invoice which has a Pending Request associated with it. An Invoice associated with a Request can only be automatically generated. This field basically serves to cancel any Order or Request placed and then not paid for for several days. For instance if a dummy Customer comes to your website and Registers for a domain name. An Invoice is raised for this domain name. Now if the Customer does not pay for the domain name, within the Request Cancellation date then on the Request Cancellation date the Invoice and the Request for registration are both cancelled.
The Request Cancellation Date is relevant for only that Invoice which meets the following criteria:
It is system generated, and
it has a pending request, and
it is fully unpaid.
If the Invoice does not have a Pending Request, OR if the Pending Request (of the Invoice) is executed without payment (Execute w/o Payment), OR if the Invoice is partly paid, then the Request Cancellation Date ceases to exist.
Lets take an example to understand this better. Lets assume a Customer of yours - Customer A, has the following Invoice -
Invoice ID: 1
Invoice Description: Renewal of abcd.com for 1 years
Status of Renewal: Pending
Invoice Amount: USD 100
Pending Amount: USD 100
Invoice Date: 1st Jan, 2003
Request Cancellation Date: 10th Jan, 2003
The above Invoice would be created when Customer A requested for the renewal of abcd.com. After this the Customer would continue to get reminders to pay for this Invoice every "Reminder Days". The following situations can now occur -
Customer pays for the Invoice. In this case the Request Cancellation Date would cease to exist. The payment does not have to be a full payment. Even if the Customer pays only USD 10, against the Invoice amount of USD 100, even then the Request Cancellation date would cease to exist.
You execute the Request without a payment. You can do this using the Execute w/o Payment button from your Control Panel. This would also cancel the Request Cancellation Date
In case neither of the above occurs, the Invoice and the associated Request would be automatically cancelled by the system on 10th Jan, 2003
The logic for the above is that if an Invoice is partly paid, or if you Execute the Request, then the Invoice should not be automatically cancelled by the system, because both these actions mean that the Invoice should be paid for completely. If however an Invoice is simply created and not paid for or its underlying Request not executed for a long duration, the System performs a cleanup based on the Request Cancellation Date.
Since a Request Cancellation Date appears only for those Invoices which are System generated and have an associated Request, the Request Cancellation Date is automatically set by the System, based on your default preferences. These default preferences are specified per Product under Settings -> Finance & Billing -> Payment Collection Settings.
Order Suspension Date/Order Deletion Date: These two fields are the most powerful Payment Collection parameters allowing you to suspend or Delete an Order of your Customer or Sub-Reseller automatically within a predefined time period if they have not paid for a particular Invoice. These fields are available for System Generated (with the exception of Domain Registration Orders) as well as manually raised Invoices.
The purpose of these fields is quite explicit. Basically both these dates can be set to specific dates. When that date is reached and if the Invoice for which this date is set still continues to remain unpaid, the Order is then Suspended or Deleted as the case maybe. While these fields are powerful, use them with great care. A Suspended Order becomes immediately inactive. More importantly a Deleted Order cannot be recovered at all. Once an Order is deleted the process cannot be reversed. These fields are both optional, and their values depend on default settings you have made, as well as any specific modifications you make.
Lets take an example to understand these fields better. Lets assume a Customer of yours - Customer A, has the following Invoice -
Invoice ID: 1
Invoice Description: Invoice for Web Design of abcd.com
Invoice Amount: USD 100
Pending Amount: USD 100
Invoice Date: 1st Jan, 2003
Order Suspension Date: 10th Jan, 2003
Order Deletion Date: 30th Jan, 2003
The above Invoice could have been manually created by you. At the time of creation of the Invoice you set the Order Suspension Date, and Order Deletion Date. The following situations can now occur -
Customer pays for the Invoice in full. In this case the Order Suspension and Order Deletion Dates would cease to exist. The payment however MUST be a FULL Payment. As long as the Invoice is not FULLY Paid the Order Suspension and Deletion dates will continue to exist.
In case if the above does not occur, the Order will be Suspended automatically on 10th Jan and subsequently Deleted on 30th Jan
If after the Order is suspended the Customer pays for the Invoice in full then the Order will be reactivated
You can always Unsuspend an Order which is suspended, you can however never undelete an Order. Once an Order is deleted it cannot be recovered again
As you can see these parameters take the Payment Collection load off your back. The System sends several reminders to your Customers/Sub-Resellers, clearly mentioning that the Order would be suspended/deleted if it is not paid for, and if they do not pay despite those Reminders then the System will automatically Suspend/Delete those orders. Similar mails are sent to yourself informing you about the pending payments of your Customers/Sub-Resellers.
For every Invoice you create you can specify an Order Suspension/Deletion Date at the time of creation of the Invoice. Additionally the system itself sets Order Suspension and Order Deletion dates on System Generated Invoices based on your default preferences per Product. These default preferences are specified per Product under Settings -> Finance & Billing -> Payment Collection Settings.

Grand Theft Auto series
Huang Lee, the spoiled son of a recently murdered Triad boss, arrives by plane in Liberty City with Yu Jian, a sword that Huang's father won in a poker game and has decided to use as an heirloom, to deliver it to the new patriarch of the family, Huang's uncle Wu "Kenny" Lee. Shortly after landing, Huang's escorts are killed by assassins and he is shot (a bullet grazes the side of the head but he survives) and kidnapped. The assailants steal the sword and, thinking Huang is dead, dump his body in the water. Huang manages to survive and informs Kenny that Yu Jian has been taken. Kenny explains that he had intended to offer the sword to Hsin Jaoming, the aging Triad boss in Liberty City, as a means of securing a position as his replacement. Kenny is been dishonored and been reduced in power due to the loss of Yu Jian, leaving him and Huang working to keep their businesses afloat.
Eventually, Huang is contacted by Zhou Ming, a high-ranking Triad member, and Chan Jaoming, son of Hsin. Both men are also competing to be Hsin's replacement, and employ Huang to combat each other's efforts. After Chan hires Huang for a deal that goes badly, LCPD Detective Wade Heston, a crooked cop under pressure from Internal Affairs, intercepted Huang. Heston offers an alliance with Huang to find the men responsible for the theft of Yu Jian and the murder of Huang's father. Huang agrees and finds that Heston suspects a Korean gang allied with the Triads is behind the events. After combating the Koreans for a while, Heston plants a bug in the Koreans' headquarters, from which he learns that there is a splinter group inside the gang called the Wonsu Nodong. Heston determines that the leader of the Wonsu will be the one responsible for Yu Jian's theft, and is a police informant who has been causing trouble for the Triads.
Meanwhile, Hsin enlists Huang in finding the informant, only to then suspect Huang himself and attempt to kill him. Kenny arrives and convinces Hsin to give them time to find the real rat, bringing haste to Huang's mission. Hsin puts Huang on to investigate two gangs who may be housing the rat: the Angels of Death, and the Korean Mob. Huang gets into contact with Lester Leroc, a PI inside the Angels of Death, and performs his own work against the Koreans. Huang is been temporarily thrown off course by the intervention of mafia member Rudy D'Avanzo, who tricks Huang into believing the mole is a Messina Family member named Jimmy Capra. Hsin later reveals D'Avanzo's trickery and Huang kills him.
Both the Koreans and the Angels are been found to be innocent, leading to a new course of investigation. Heston employs Huang to hack into the servers of the FIB in order to find the informant. The information recovered names both Zhou Ming and Chan Jaoming as having talked to the police about Triads. This is been taken to Hsin, who, disgraced that his own son is a suspect, instantly steps down as leader and appoints Kenny as the new head of the Liberty City Triads. Huang then executes both Chan and Zhou, despite each denying their guilt. Shortly after the killings, Heston, who informs him the information they recovered was fake, and that he has learned of a meeting between the leader of the Wonsu and his allies, contacts Huang. Huang and Heston go to the meeting and find Kenny, who admits that he was responsible for the theft of Yu Jian and Huang's father's death. Heston and Huang pursue Kenny across town, cornering him at Hsin's residence. Here, Kenny explains that he was tasked by Hsin to retrieve Yu Jian, thus Huang's father would have to die for it to be passed on to him, in exchange for a position underneath Chan. Kenny complied with this, but attempted to have Yu Jian stolen to keep himself from such a dishonorable position and later framed Zhou and Chan to cover his tracks.
After a final confrontation between Hsin and Kenny, Hsin demands the hand over of Yu Jian. Kenny ironically responds by stabbing Hsin with the sword as his way of presenting it to him. With Huang as witness to the murder and truth, Kenny engages in an inevitable final battle with Huang, who is the only one left in the way of Kenny's undisputed rise to power. Centered on a fountain with Kenny slashing away, Huang eventually kills Kenny, fulfilling his promise to avenge his father. Immediately the IAD and FIB arrive to arrest Heston and Huang, however Heston claims that he was in deep undercover and orders the arrest of everyone except Huang. Hsin praises Huang with the loyalty and nobility to become his true successor as Triad Boss.
By completion of the story and locating the two Lions of Fo for the Rockstar Games Social Club, you can open up Xin Shan's missions. Xin instructs Huang to steal a Rhino to distract the police from a planned robbery. However, the cops ambush Xin; Huang attempts to take him to safety, but he succumbs to his injuries. Before his death, he makes the revelation that he is the brother of Ling Shan, a girl who was murdered early on in the game. Huang mourns for both of them.
Chinatown Wars has a different presentation than any previous game in the GTA series. Instead of a third person ground-level view behind the protagonist (GTA III - GTA IV) or a top-down perspective (GTA 1, GTA 2, GTA Advance), Chinatown Wars uses a fully rotatable aerial camera angled down at the action. This angle allows the camera to rotate dynamically during action sequences, and is only featured in this game out of the entire GTA series. The game uses a basic lock-on system for combat, which yields variable results, as sometimes the system locks on to vehicles instead of enemies. The game also locks on automatically when using melee weapons. One of the main features of the game, which distinguishes Chinatown Wars from the rest of the series, is the PDA. This is where many of the game's features are been accessed from, including the Ammu-Nation online shop and Trade Info, which is used in the drug dealing side feature. The PDA is also how the protagonist receives missions in the game in the form of emails, which is a nice substitute for the lack of voice acting in the game.
One major difference between Chinatown Wars and previous games in the series is the inclusion of "hot-wiring" mini-games that the player must complete in order to start stolen parked vehicle. Failing to complete the mini-game within a specific time results in the vehicle's alarm being activated, compared to previous games which automatically sound the alarm in randomly selected vehicles. GTA IV introduced the requirement for cars to be hot-wired, but the protagonist still does this automatically. In all games previous to GTA IV, the car seemed to be started with a key, even if it was stolen from a parked position.
Chinatown Wars re-introduces over-the-top gameplay, like in GTA San Andreas, GTA Vice City and The Ballad of Gay Tony. The player can once again obtain and use weapons such as the Minigun, Flame Thrower, and Chainsaw. The game also re-introduces vehicles such as the Rhino, Bulldozer and the Speeder.
There has been some controversy over a drug dealing minigame, along with comments that some Nintendo games are being aimed at children. The drug dealing mini-game allows the player to peddle six types of drugs around the city, but the profit made depends on market conditions, which will be based on the area in which the player deals, and the amount of service this area receives regularly from the player.
"Nintendo wanted us to make GTA, and we wanted to make a game on their platform. They didn't want us to make a GTA for kids, and we weren't interested in making a game we wouldn't normally make." - Dan Houser
PSP version
In October 2009, GTA Chinatown Wars was released and features new missions, given by Melanie Mallard. The graphics have been improved and, due to obvious differences between the two consoles, all the action was condensed to the one screen, with the touch screen minigames replaced by quick time events. The PSP version includes a more diverse soundtrack of 11 radio stations, compared to five in the DS version.
iPhone/iPod Touch version
An Apple iPhone version of Chinatown Wars was announced on 31st August 2009, and on 18th January 2010, was released on the App Store. It costs $9.99. The graphics has been updated with better colour and textures, a mix between the DS and PSP styles. It also features Independence FM, a custom radio station, where players can create a playlist of their favorite iTunes songs. The initial release required 186MB of storage memory on the iPhone/iPod touch [1] and included the same soundtrack radio stations as the DS version. Since 28th March 2010, an updated version includes the six radio stations that were exclusive to the PSP version. The additional music increased the size of the game to 232MB. On June 9, 2010 Take-Two Interactive revealed that an iPad version would be released within a month.
Chinatown Wars Lite
A free demo version for the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad was released around the same time as the full game. It features the first three missions (Yu Jian, Pursuit Farce and Under the Gun) and full access to Liberty City. All radio stations were removed, with the exception of Deadmau5 and Ticklah ; also, a substantial number of in-game services like Auto Merchant and Drug Dealing were removed.
- If the player purchases Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the Nintendo DS, they will be provided with a booklet called Your New Life In Liberty City. It shows the controls, safehouses, PDA, weapons, Side missions, multiplayer mode, co-op mode, social club, as well as a few funny advertisements.
- Chinatown Wars is the third Grand Theft Auto game released on the PlayStation Portable (PSP) after Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, and the first GTA game to appear on the PSP to not get a PlayStation 2 port.
- Chinatown Wars is the first GTA released on the Nintendo DS as well as Apple's iOS platform.
- It was stated in the UK magazine Official Nintendo Magazine that this game contained at least 800,000 lines of code.
- If one had pre-ordered the game from GameStop, they were provided a cheat code that allows players to unlock all the weapons at Ammu-Nation and receive $10,000 early in the game, or the ability to acquire a bullet-proof Infernus at the Auto Merchant.
- All of the bosses in the game have their own theme songs, which occur whenever the player initiates a mission for them.
- Unlike the covers of nearly all Grand Theft Auto games since GTA III (having few pictures of random actions around the logo), the cover of GTA Chinatown Wars doesn't have a picture of a helicopter in the top left corner, probably because they cannot be flown in the game, and only ridden in one mission. However, the same applies for GTA III: The player cannot fly a helicopter in the game, and they are only ridden in one mission.
- In the top left, top right, bottom left and bottom right corners of the city (far out into the water), there are signs which say 'Here Be Dragons'.

Kathmandu, Bāgmatī is located at a latitude of 27.72°. Here is the most efficient tilt for photovoltaic panels in Kathmandu:
Your photovoltaic panels need to be angled facing south.
If you're mounting the photovoltaic panels at a stationary angle, such as on your roof, the most efficient angle is 24.2°.
If you're planning to change the angle of your photovoltaic panels twice per year, the most efficient angle is 4.8° in summer months and 43.5° in winter months.
When changing the angle of your photovoltaic panels each season, the most efficient angle is 1.2° in summer months and 48.7° in winter months, and 24.9° in autumn and spring months.
The optimal angle for your solar panels will depend on your latitude. At the equator, the sun is almost directly overhead, so solar panels should be installed at a relatively shallow angle, around 10-15 degrees. As you move further away from the equator, the sun's angle becomes more oblique, so solar panels should be installed at a steeper angle to capture more direct sunlight. This will allow them to capture the most sunlight possible and generate the most electricity.
There are several factors to consider when selecting the best rooftop solar panels for your home:
Efficiency: Solar panels are rated by their efficiency, which is a measure of how much of the sun's energy they can convert into electricity. Higher efficiency panels will produce more electricity and may be a better choice if you have limited space on your roof.
Type of panel: There are two main types of solar panels: monocrystalline and polycrystalline. Monocrystalline panels are made from a single, continuous crystal of silicon and are generally more efficient and more expensive. Polycrystalline panels are made from many smaller crystals of silicon and are less efficient but also less expensive.
Size and weight: Make sure the solar panels you choose will fit on your roof and that your roof is able to support their weight.
Brand and warranty: Consider the reputation of the manufacturer and the terms of their warranty. A good warranty can provide peace of mind and protection against any potential defects or problems with the panels.
Cost: The cost of solar panels can vary significantly. Look for panels that offer the best value for your money, taking into account their efficiency, size, and warranty.

Hey gang. I'm posting this one a few hours early, because, unless I've missed my guess (and I've just double-checked the schedule on the AETV site so I don't believe I have), this will be the day that Kazim's Special Thing that was announced for the show last month and then postponed will be happening. So consider this a heads-up for the program this afternoon, after which this will serve as the open discussion thread for what transpires.
So, now we all know what the surprise was: AETV's first ever on-air theist guest, Baptist minister Kyle Miller. A soft-spoken gentleman, and not the sort of wild-eyed fundie cretin you'd all like us to tear from limb to limb, but nice to have as a guest. Part of Russell's goal on today's show was to demonstrate atheists and theists can have civil discussions on a topic of mutual interest without having the whole thing turning into a Bill O'Reilly screaming match, and in that I thought the experiment worked fine. As it turns out, the last half hour did not seem to be nearly enough time to broach the subject matter — the Problem of Evil — with any kind of depth. A big thank you to Kyle for taking time out of his day to be a guest.
Folks, if you just tried commenting on the more recent post that was up for a short time, please go ahead and re-comment here. I went ahead and deleted that as it was redundant to have two "open thread on today's show" posts. I personally thought there were a lot of opportunities on the subject of the Problem of Evil that didn't get broached, but maybe I'll comment in more detail later.

I dwell in a lonely house I know
That vanished many a summer ago,
And left no trace but the cellar walls,
And a cellar in which the daylight falls
And the purple-stemmed wild raspberries grow.
O'er ruined fences the grape-vines shield
The woods come back to the mowing field;
The orchard tree has grown one copse
Of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;
The footpath down to the well is healed.
I dwell with a strangely aching heart
In that vanished abode there far apart
On that disused and forgotten road
That has no dust-bath now for the toad.
Night comes; the black bats tumble and dart;
The whippoorwill is coming to shout
And hush and cluck and flutter about:
I hear him begin far enough away
Full many a time to say his say
Before he arrives to say it out.
It is under the small, dim, summer star.
I know not who these mute folk are
Who share the unlit place with me—
Those stones out under the low-limbed tree
Doubtless bear names that the mosses mar.
They are tireless folk, but slow and sad—
Though two, close-keeping, are lass and lad,—
With none among them that ever sings,
And yet, in view of how many things,
As sweet companions as might be had.

Chemotherapy uses anticancer medicines to kill cancer cells. The medicines are made to attack and kill cancer cells that grow quickly. Some normal cells also grow quickly. Because of this, chemotherapy can also harm those cells. This can cause side effects.
The medicines travel all through your body in your bloodstream. They may stop cell growth, kill cancer cells, or help your immune system attack the cells.
Chemotherapy may be able to cure breast cancer. This means the tumor disappears and doesn't grow back. If a cure isn't possible, chemotherapy may help keep the cancer from growing or spreading. If the cancer is advanced and can't be controlled, chemotherapy may help ease symptoms caused by cancer and improve your quality of life. A healthcare provider with special training in cancer treatment (oncologist) will talk to you about the goals of chemotherapy and the best treatment plan for you.
Your oncologist may advise chemotherapy in any of these situations:
Before surgery. This is called neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Chemotherapy may be used to shrink the tumor so that it's smaller. This may allow you to have surgery to remove just part of the breast (breast-conserving surgery), instead of the entire breast (mastectomy).
After surgery. This is called adjuvant chemotherapy. Adjuvant chemotherapy helps keep any cancer cells that are left from growing and spreading. Whether your oncologist advises it depends on the size of the tumor, if it has spread to lymph nodes, and other factors. Chemotherapy is often given after surgery to remove breast cancer. It may be given every 2 or 3 weeks.
When the breast cancer has spread to other parts of your body. Chemotherapy travels around the body to kill cancer cells. So it can be used to kill cancer cells that have spread. How long this treatment lasts depends on how much the tumors shrink.
The oncologist will determine how often and how long the treatments will be. Most often, more than one medicine is used. The medicines may be given in your home, a hospital outpatient facility, a healthcare provider's office or clinic, or a hospital. The medicines may be given in any of these ways:
IV (intravenous) infusion. A bag is filled with medicine that drips through a tube into a small catheter that's put into a vein in your hand or arm. Another choice for this is a semipermanent kind of IV called a vascular access device (VAD). Some examples of VADs are ports, PICC lines, and Hickman catheters. A VAD may be used if you need IVs often, if your veins are hard to find, or if you're taking more than 1 medicine by IV.
Oral. You swallow the medicines as pills.
Injection. You get the medicines through a needle that's put into a vein, into muscle, or under the skin.
You will be watched for reactions during your treatments. Ask your healthcare provider or nurse what your treatment will be like. Some treatments last for a while, so you may want to take along something that is comforting to you, such as your favorite music. You may also want to bring something to keep you busy, such as a deck of cards or a book.
You get chemotherapy in cycles over a period of time. That means you may take the medicine for a set amount of time and then you have a rest period. Each period of treatment and rest is one cycle. This schedule may continue for multiple cycles. Having treatment in cycles helps by:
Killing more cancer cells. The medicine can kill more cancer cells over time, because the cells aren't all dividing at the same time. Cycles allow the medicine to fight more cells.
Giving your body a rest. Treatment is hard on other cells of the body that divide quickly. This includes cells in the lining of the mouth and stomach. This causes side effects, such as sores and nausea. Between cycles, your body can get a rest from the chemotherapy.
Giving your mind a rest. Having chemotherapy can be stressful. Taking breaks between cycles can let you get an emotional break between treatments.
The medicines most often used include:
Doxorubicin. This is an IV medicine. The medicine is red in color, and it turns urine red for several hours after treatment. This medicine is most often given with cyclophosphamide. This combination is referred to as AC.
Cyclophosphamide. This is a medicine that can be given by IV or orally in tablet form. This medicine is most often given with doxorubicin.
Methotrexate. This medicine is usually given by IV. It's yellow in color. It's most often given with both cyclophosphamide and fluorouracil. This combination is referred to as CMF.
Fluorouracil (5-FU). This is an anticancer medicine that is given by IV. The medicine is clear. This medicine is most often given with both cyclophosphamide and methotrexate. This medicine combination is referred to as CMF.
Epirubicin. This is a medicine similar to doxorubicin and is given by IV.
Paclitaxel, docetaxel, protein-bound paclitaxel. These belong to a group of medicines called taxanes. Paclitaxel is for treating early and advanced breast cancer. Docetaxel is for treating locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic breast cancer. Protein-bound paclitaxel is for treating metastatic or recurrent breast cancer. Protein-bound paclitaxel is a form of paclitaxel that may be used to decrease the chance of having an adverse reaction to the medicine.
Capecitabine. This is an oral medicine that is converted into fluorouracil in the body.
Gemcitabine. This is an IV medicine.
Vinorelbine. This is an IV medicine.
Ixabepilone. This is a new IV medicine that can reduce tumor size or slow tumor growth in some women with advanced, recurrent, or metastatic breast cancer.
Eribulin. This IV medicine works somewhat like ixabepilone. It can be used to treat recurrent or metastatic breast cancer in women who have already had an anthracycline and a taxane medicine.
You may also be given other medicines during chemotherapy. These may fight the cancer in a different way, help the chemotherapy work better, or help prevent or ease side effects.
Chemotherapy medicines are designed to attack and kill cells that grow quickly, including cancer cells. These medicines can also affect normal cells that grow quickly. These include hair follicles, intestines, mouth, and bone marrow. The side effects of chemotherapy are different for everyone. They usually go away when the treatment ends. Most side effects can be treated.
The most common short-term side effects of chemotherapy include:
Loss of appetite
Nausea and vomiting
Easy bruising or bleeding, from low levels of blood platelets
Tiredness, from having low levels of red blood cells
Infections, from low levels of white blood cells
Hair loss
Mouth sores
Numbness, tingling, or pain in fingers or toes (neuropathy)
Memory changes (chemo brain)
Nail changes
Sexual changes and fertility problems
Skin changes, such as redness or dryness
Possible long-term side effects of chemotherapy include:
Early menopause. Some chemotherapy medicines can harm your ovaries and cause long-term side effects if you haven't gone through menopause yet. If you think you might want to have a child after chemotherapy, talk with your healthcare provider before you start treatment.
Heart damage. Some of these medicines can cause permanent heart damage called cardiomyopathy. Your healthcare team will closely watch for symptoms of this and do tests to check how well your heart is working.
It's important to know which medicines you're taking. Write your medicines down, ask your healthcare team how they work, and what side effects they might have.
Talk with your healthcare providers about what signs to look for and when to call them. Make sure you know what number to call with questions, even on evenings, holidays, and weekends.
It may be helpful to keep a diary of your side effects. Write down physical and emotional changes, as well as changes in the way you think (rational). A written list will make it easier for you to remember your questions when you go to your appointments. It will also make it easier for you to work with your healthcare team to make a plan to manage your side effects.

See more Setting of implementation: N/A Professionals delivering the intervention: Educator Targeted self-management behaviours: Physical activity /exercise
Individual sessions
A single person receives the self-management support. Examples: self-guided actions (without the participation of any other person) during a clinical visit or within the context of a support or educational session
Self-management support delivered in a face-to-face encounter between the providers and patients and/or caregivers.
See more Setting of implementation: Virtual location Professionals delivering the intervention: Educator, Service Targeted self-management behaviours: Condition-specific behaviours, Device management, Physical activity /exercise, Self-monitoring
Education (E)
Education (E)
Sharing information. This form of support consists in sharing of information about self-management topics like coping with symptoms, diet, exercise, medication, information about what other people are doing, and information about the disease itself, or about any other relevant aspects that could lead to improved self-management, and ultimately better health. This information can be told or distributed in printed materials like a folder or workbook, or via website or DVD.
Examples: Educational session on healthy eating for people with obesity, provision of a printed leaflet on the importance of foot care in diabetes, or a link to a website with information on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease care.
Monitoring techniques (MT)
Monitoring techniques (MT)
Self-monitoring training and feedback. Training and encouraging people to recognize, monitor, and record behaviours, symptoms, or clinical data. This process may include regular feedback from a clinician, or a synopsis of information registered in a digital tool to encourage you to continue monitoring your illness and behaviours.
Example: Showing a patient how to record blood sugar levels, physical activity, or pain.
Action-based behavioural change techniques (AB)
Action-based behavioural change techniques (AB)
There are different action-based behavioural change techniques:
Enhancing problem-solving skills. This technique consists in teaching on how to analyse factors that influence your behaviour and provide you or help you to develop strategies to reduce or overcome barriers and/or support facilitators (e.g., not eating unhealthy foods when you feel depressed). Strategies include anticipation, self-treatment, resource utilization, and problem management. Ideally, there should be an initial plan, but this is not a requisite.
Example: Identification and attenuation of environmental barriers (e.g., no gym in the neighbourhood when one want to exercise) and facilitators (e.g., someone who keeps you company during exercise) to everyday physical activities.
Goal setting and action planning. This technique consists in encouraging you to set one or more achievable goals based on your needs and preferences. These goals may be behaviours (e.g., a consuming a healthy meal three times a day) or outcomes (e.g., less pain) and can be used as a starting point. The process usually involves the formulation of a detailed action plan, specifying what you would do and at least when and/or where you will do it. It could also include an assessment of your behaviours with your health care provider and a discussion of goals and the writing up of agreed-on action plans, including plans for emergency situations.
Examples of goals: achieving a daily walking distance of 2 km or a weight loss of some kilograms in x months with diet and exercise.
Emotional-based change techniques (EB)
Emotional-based change techniques (EB)
There are different emotional-based behavioural change techniques:
Stress and/or emotional management. This technique consists in helping you to understand the role of stress and emotions and teaching them to use different coping strategies to manage, for example, stress and painful emotions caused by your disease.
Examples: Mindfulness, exercise, stretching, listening to music, deep breathing, or meditation.
Coaching and motivational interviewing. This kind of support helps you to change behaviours by looking what's important to you, and then offering support, taking into account your needs and preferences. One provider (healthcare professional, peer or lay person) is usually your coach. Motivational interviewing and counselling are included, as well as collaborative conversations with a practitioner, helping with motivation and commitment, minimizing resistance, and resolve ambivalence to change.
Examples: coaching sessions led by a nurse to ease the transition from hospital to home, or rehabilitation programs using coaching methods.
Individual sessions
A single person receives the self-management support. Examples: self-guided actions (without the participation of any other person) during a clinical visit or within the context of a support or educational session
Self-management support delivered in a face-to-face encounter between the providers and patients and/or caregivers.

David Sharp was born in 1932 in Hackney, East London. The product of a broken home, he was taken in charge of the church and when he was eight was sent to foster parents in Sutton Valence, Kent. They were caring parents, who noticed his talent for art and decided that he should go to art school when his conventional education was finished. Duly he enrolled in a two-year foundation course at Maidstone School of Art.
During a summer holiday he visited the charming little town of Rye, just over the Kent border in Sussex. He saw the Rye Pottery and his interest in ceramics was born. In 1947 he became Rye Pottery's first apprentice. He worked for them for six years, learning the necessary skills for a potter, before being called up to serve his country in the army. During his National Service his talents as a boxer and as a musician came to the fore.
When he returned to the pottery two things had changed - the pottery and him. Rye Pottery had grown and become more commercial, concentrating less on studio pottery and more on commercial runs, and David had seen a lot more of the world. He had itchy feet and in 1956 left to form Rye Art Pottery, which later became Cinque Port Pottery, (note singular 'Port'), with his friend George Gray.
When the partnership dissolved, David stayed at the existing Cinque Ports Pottery (which had now become plural) premises at The Mint. David's new company was named the David Sharp Pottery.

The Potteries of Rye, 1793 onwards by Carol Cashmore |
The David Sharp Pottery started in 1964 producing studio pottery. In 1965 he was joined by his wife, Dot, and towards the end of the sixties the pottery began to flourish. During this time he started making animal figures and his famous wall plaques. In the seventies the production of the house plaques had grown to the extent that he needed to take on a full-time painter, Joyce Stewart, and form a separate company, the Rye Plaque Company. The plaques became a familiar feature of Rye, and are still produced and shipped world wide today.
Sharp seemed never able to stand still; he was always game for a new venture, and in 1973 he teamed up with Michael Doulton, with funding from the Doulton family, to make table wares. The enterprise was not successful. In the winter of that year the oil crisis struck and Britain was plunged into the turmoil of the three-day-week. Businesses were allowed to operate on only three days of each week, to conserve energy, and at any time power cuts were likely to occur - the use of electric kilns was made impossible. The venture folded and Michael Doulton went to Australia.
Sharp's animals, by this time, were well known and in 1974 he was commissioned by Bayer, the chemical company, to make a sheep for them to give to their farmer customers. This commission was repeated annually for some years with the type of animal changing each time.
In the late seventies he was asked to make a fisherman toby jug for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. When it was made, they didn't want it, so he kept it for himself and it became the first of a series of half-a-dozen Buccaneers of Britain. The buccaneers were modelled on drinking companions, and most were to be seen in the flesh walking around Rye. They were not a great commercial success, being large and ugly - not right for the time, but now very collectable.
The slump in the property market in the early nineties caused a drop in sales of house plaques. David went back to making more individual studio pottery using a gas kiln that produced better glazes than the electric kilns. He produced some fine work during this period until his death in 1993.
The pottery is run now by Dot and Ben Sharp, and can still be found at The Mint, Rye. The showroom has a changing display of studio pottery and house plaques and you can visit the David Sharp Pottery web site.

Data coverage:
Data refers to B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the sale of physical goods via a digital channel to a private end consumer. This definition encompasses purchases via desktop computers (including notebooks and laptops) as well as purchases via mobile devices (e.g., smartphones and tablets). The following are not included in the eCommerce market: digitally distributed services (see instead: eServices), digital media downloads or streams, digitally distributed goods in B2B markets, and the digital purchase or resale of used, defective, or repaired goods (reCommerce and C2C). All monetary figures refer to the annual gross revenue and do not factor in shipping costs.Modeling approach / Market size:
Market sizes are determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, based on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Statista Global Consumer Survey), data on shopping behavior (e.g., Google Trends, Alibaba Trends), and performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price/product). Furthermore, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations such as GDP, consumer spending, internet penetration, and population. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the particular market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer spending per capita, internet penetration, and population.Additional Notes:
The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is considered at a country-specific level. The impact of the Russia/Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.Visión general

Commercial Maintenance
Not spending money unnecessarily as a business owner is a smart strategy toward success. To cut costs, sometimes owners will decide against spending on regular commercial HVAC maintenance, since their systems and equipment seem to be running well. That is a mistake. By having regularly scheduled maintenance performed, you are actually saving money in the long run, since many repairs are preventable with regular maintenance. This saves you money in two ways––the repair itself and you not losing production time from employees who need to stop working due to the HVAC incapacity. Setting up a preventive maintenance agreement or contract with professionals ensures your system is serviced regularly and customized to your company's specific needs.
Preventive Maintenance Agreement
By purchasing a commercial HVAC preventive maintenance agreement, your system's equipment is serviced on a regular basis, typically quarterly, to avoid problems and breakdowns. The professionals servicing your company, like the ones at Precise Heating, can customize a plan that best suits your company's needs. Maybe you don't need every piece of equipment serviced quarterly, only a few. Maybe your system is very nuanced and needs more frequent visits. Whatever your business needs, an agreement can be customized to address those needs. When setting up your agreement, be sure to ask your professional how long each maintenance visit will take, what needs to be done to improve your system's performance, and after each visit if he or she will be reviewing any maintenance issues with you. These three things in particular can help you decide which company can best serve your business when deciding which HVAC company to use for your HVAC maintenance program.
Advantages to Regular Maintenance
The biggest advantage of regular HVAC maintenance is cost savings. By servicing your equipment on a regular basis, these same professionals will become familiar with your equipment and can spot beginning problems easily, avoiding costly repairs and issues. Also, by regularly maintaining your equipment, your system will work more efficiently, using less energy and providing more comfort, translating to less money spent. Regular maintenance leads to longer lifespans for equipment as well, meaning less equipment replacements overall.
Quick HVAC Maintenance Checklist
Here's a general seasonal checklist of tasks to be performed on your equipment:
Spring and Summer
- Check refrigerant charge and inspect for leaks
- Replace filters on cooling equipment
- Clear pans and drains
- Check belts and pulleys, replacing as needed
- Clean evaporator coils and condenser
- Check electrical connections
- Lubricate bearings, motors, and moving parts
- Check fan and blower motor, adjusting as needed
- Check for adequate airflow
- Check thermostats and other controls
Fall and Winter

- Check electrical connections
- Lubricate bearings, motors, and moving parts
