2013 Stanley Cup Playoff Team - Toronto Maple LeafsFor the first time since 2003-2004 - that's two NHL lockouts for those of you scoring at home - the 2013 Toronto Maple Leafs are finally back in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Behind the stellar play of goalie James Reimer and offensive success of players like Phil Kessel, one of the two most heralded franchises in NHL history is finally back in the tournament for Lord Stanley's Cup. The beginning of the lockout-shortened season was a bit ominous, as long-time GM Brian Burke was fired; the four years he invested in the franchise finally paid dividends this year, though, as big acquisitions like Kessel and defenseman Dion Phaneuf led one of the NHL's flagship organizations into the postseason.
Now that they've qualified for the playoffs - almost guaranteed the No. 5 seed - the potential Toronto Maple Leafs 2013 Stanley Cup Playoff run is being dissected by the analysts and fans long-hungry to see this team tested in the NHL's intense postseason. Toronto is still waiting to see if their first round NHL playoff opponent will be the fierce historic rival Montreal Canadiens or recent nemesis and recent Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins. Fans are hoping to meet the Habs in the first round, a fitting reintroduction into the playoffs with an intense rivalry to instantly increase the energy level. Toronto has also enjoyed far more success as of late against Montreal, not so much against the Bruins.
Toronto Maple Leafs Stanley Cup Playoff Opponent
While the Maple Leafs are unlikely to ever have home ice advantage in the 2013 NHL Playoffs, their fans are guaranteed at least two postseason games in the Air Canada Centre for the first time in nine seasons.

NHL Playoff Preview - Toronto Maple Leafs
Toronto Maple Leafs - Because It's the Cup
Maple Leafs Hope to Avenge 1993Toronto was so close to making the Stanley Cup Finals in 1993. Since then, they managed to make two more Conference Finals in the 90's but haven't returned to the playoffs in the last nine years. A controversial Game 7 loss still stings Maple Leafs' fans everywhere, and they'll rally around those memories as they cheer their team toward a cup.
3/25/15: Well, that did not last long. Young and beleaguered forward Nazem Kadri earned a four game suspension from the NHL. He got that in his first game back after a three game suspension by the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Leafs suspended him for sleeping through a team meeting. The NHL suspended him for an elbow to the head of Edmonton's Matt Fraser. Kadri seemed to know he hit Fraser wrong and immediately went to the ice to help and apologize. But the damage was done and the NHL kicked him off the ice, which was probably the right move.
3/18/15: The Maple Leafs' tumultuous season is mercifully nearing an end, but the drama continues. The team suspended young forward Nazem Kadri for three games for sleeping through a team meeting. It seems a bit harsh, but president Brendan Shanahan obviously wanted to send a message about maturity and accountability. Kadri says he is embarrassed by the situation and has learned a lesson. The punishment seemed a bit harsh, but since the Leafs are out of playoff contention and management wants to change the culture, it was probably a good thing to do in the grand scheme of things.
3/11/15: There are no two ways around it. The Toronto Maple Leafs, and that includes the players, coaches and team management, have been under heavy fire from fans and media alike all season. Considering they have one of the most disappointing records in the league, that is somewhat understandable - though fans and media have both crossed the line between fair criticism and damaging attacks many times. But now former Leaf Olli Jokinen is raving about his time with the team. He was only there two weeks before getting traded to St. Louis, but said that everything about the organization is first class, and wonders why every free agent does not try to sign with Toronto.
3/4/15: Another pre-trade deadline deal is in the books, and, not surprisingly, it involves the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Leafs are hitting the reset button on the franchise, a move that is long overdue. So they are selling. They traded the controversial and gritty David Clarkson to Columbus for Nathan Horton. Clarkson has a big salary that he earned by becoming a 30 goal scorer. Horton, however, may well retire after this season. If nothing else, the Leafs essentially got an expiring contract which will save them money in the future that they can put toward the rebuilding effort.
2/25/15: The mess that is the Toronto Maple Leafs continues, but there are only about 20 games left in the season. New Maple Leafs management has a mandate from ownership to tear down the team and rebuild it through the draft. That goes against their philosophy of the last decade of signing high priced and old free agents. The trade deadline is around the corner and most expect the Maple Leafs to be sellers. They have some good players that would be helpful for a contending team, and that could allow the Leafs to slash payroll and build up draft picks.
2/18/15: Perhaps this is what has been needed in Toronto for a long, long time. President Brendan Shanahan received approval from the Maple Leafs board of directors to completely overhaul the team. That does not mean to do patchwork repairs, which has been the status quo for a years, but rather to strip the team down and rebuild it through the draft and player development. This same song was sung under Brian Burke seven years ago, but never executed. Now it seems they are really serious about improving a team that has made the playoffs only once in the last 10 years.
2/11/15: The Toronto Maple Leafs continue their slide that started well before the All Star break with another loss last Friday. That extended their losing streak to 11 games, with a 0-10-1 mark in that time. The Maple Leafs have fallen to seventh out of eight teams in the Atlantic Division, ahead of only lowly Buffalo. The losing streak is obviously frustrating to the players, organization and fans. The Maple Leafs hit the road for a short trip this week: at the New York Islanders on Thursday and at Montreal on Saturday, before returning home to host the Panthers on Tuesday.
2/5/15: The media out of Toronto, heck even throughout the U.S. and Canada, has had their fun taking shots at the Maple Leafs for their struggles over the last six weeks. Therefore, no such need exists to do so here. But it is inevitable that there will be changes within the organization coming soon. According to at least one report, Chief Leaf Brendan Shanahan would like to tab Rob Blake as the next GM. That job is currently filled by Dave Norris, but who knows how long that will last. Blake is considered unlikely to leave Southern California, though, and the Kings would have to grant permission first.
1/28/15: It is easy to pick on the Toronto Maple Leafs right now. The team is 3-14 in their last 17 games, including six straight losses, and has slipped toward the bottom of the Atlantic Division Standings. Considering their recent woes, the All Star break has come at a good time. The Maple Leafs have 34 games left in the regular season, which means 34 chances for management to assess their interim head coach and the roster. Toronto gets back to work tonight at New Jersey before coming home to host the Arizona Coyotes on Thursday - then embarking on another roadtrip.
1/21/15: Some teams tend to excel on the road, treating it like a business trip and focusing on the task at hand. Others, such as the Toronto Maple Leafs, struggle when away from their home, and that puts their chances at getting into the playoffs at risk. They lost their third game in a row and fifth consecutive road game last week to the San Jose Sharks. They are reverting back into the style of play that got Randy Carlyle fired a few weeks ago - leading many to believe that it is more than coaching that is bringing the team down.
1/14/15: For a team that has as much talent as the Toronto Maple Leafs, the 2014-15 season has to be considered a disaster. One not look any further than the fact that the team fired head coach Randy Carlyle a couple weeks ago, even with a winning record. Peter Horachek is the interim coach, and he got a come-from-behind win over the Columbus Blue Jackets last Saturday. But team management is not just stopping with replacing the head coach, chief Brendan Shanahan warned all the players that they are 'watching' everyone, so do not be surprised if there are some big trades coming up.
1/7/15: The Toronto Maple Leafs continue to confound their fans with their erratic play that is sometimes at all-star levels and sometimes at high school levels. In any case, they finished the 2014 calendar year in fourth place in the Atlantic Division. That is not quite good enough for a guarantee playoff spot, but still within wild card parameters. Later in the season, the rosters will open up and it will be interesting to see if they call up prospect William Nylander. He is playing in the Swedish league this season, but is with the Swedes in World Juniors Championships. Nylander is only 18 years old, so this may not be his season, but it looks like the Leafs have a keeper in the young forward.
12/3/14: Toronto continues to be among the more inexplicable teams in the NHL this season. The bad side is that they sit fifth in the Atlantic Division at 27 points through November. The good side is that they would have the eighth spot if the playoff started today. The leafs can score - they have registered 76 markers through 23 games - over 3 goals per game on average. But that is tempered with questionable defense that has surrendered 69 goals - exactly three goals per game. The Leafs probably know this too, so do not be surprised if they make a move to bolster their defense or goaltending some time this season.
11/19/14: The Toronto Maple Leafs have been one of the better teams in the NHL over the past two weeks, though the media would have you think that they share a record with the Buffalo Sabres. The fact is that they struggled in the early going, but are 6-3-1 over their last 10 games, which is good for 13 points. They have moved up into fifth in the Atlantic Division, but would hold a playoff spot if the postseason started now. Toronto has home games on Thursday (Tampa Bay Lightning) and Saturday (Detroit Red Wings) before heading to Pittsburgh.
11/12/14: At 7-5-2 through last Saturday, it would seem that the Toronto Maple Leafs are doing pretty well. Unfortunately for them, they are sixth in the Atlantic Division, as everyone seems to be playing well (except Buffalo). Interestingly enough, Wayne Gretzky announced that he spoke with the Maple Leafs about being president of the team. He said it did not work out on either side and has a lot of faith in the man they hired, Brendan Shanahan. While the cache of having Gretzky run the team would be nice, he has never been a great coach or executive. So maybe it was for the best after all.
11/5/14: Oh, Toronto. What are we to think of you? The Maple Leafs, through last Saturday, had a winning record at 5-4-1. At the same time, that was because they won consecutive games to get above .500. It still seems like this is a team without an identity. They are not a scoring machine, averaging only 2.9 goals per game. They are a good, but not great defensive team - allowing 2.6 goals a game. We may get an indication of who the Leafs are this season in the next week: at Colorado on Thursday, host the Rangers on Saturday and at Ottawa on Sunday.
10/29/14: The Maple Leafs were scheduled to play at Ottawa against the Senators last Wednesday, October 22nd. However, an assault on Canadian personnel was carried out by gunman, putting the city on lockdown. The game, of course was postponed to another day. Professional sports is a minor thing in comparison to such a tragedy. News outlets have more information for those that are interested, but for now, the thoughts are with the victims, their families and the good people of Ottawa. The hockey can be played on another day, now is a time for remembrance and thoughtful reflection.
10/22/14: It is said that anyone who can turn the Maple Leafs around and win the Stanley Cup will have "schools named after him" in Toronto. It has been a long time since the Leafs hoisted the Cup, almost 50 years (1967 was the last championship). It is too early to tell if the Leafs have what it takes to win this season, though they have some interesting talent on the roster. But many are already thinking about next season and the possibility of landing Detroit Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock. Perhaps he could do it, but let's play out this season first.
10/15/14: Toronto went to Montreal in the opening night of the NHL as one of the premier matchups. To be fair, it was a good game, though the Leafs lost to the Candiens 4-3. Hoping to get a little more offensive punch, the Leafs claimed Richard Panik off waivers from the Tampa Bay Lightning the following day. Panik is still young, only 23, but has failed to make the jump from the AHL to the NHL as a consistent offensive threat. His minor league numbers are good: 11 points in 13 games last season and 41 points in 51 games the season before, but he only managed three goals and 13 points in 50 NHL games last season.
10/8/14: The Toronto Maple Leafs took a bit of a risk by signing 37 year old defenseman Stephane Robidas to a three year, $9 million deal in the offseason. What is more is that Robidas, as good as he is, broke his leg twice last season. He only began skating again recently. But there is optimism that he could be in lineup tonight for the season opener. He claims that the leg feels 'great'. He played in the preseason game last Friday against Detroit and was evaluated afterward. The Leafs will need him this season for them to improve on last season's disappointments.
10/8/14: The Montreal Canadiens made it to the Eastern Conference Finals last season before being eliminated by the New York Rangers. They are a quality team and could well end up representing the East in the Stanley Cup this season. In the short term, they may be without newly acquired forward P.A. Parenteau, who suffered an upper body injury in a preseason game last week against the Ottawa Senators. Parenteau can score, but is better known for setting up his linemates and registering assists. Montreal opens the season with four straight road games against Toronto (October 8), Washington (October 9), Philadelphia (October 11) and Tampa (October 13).
10/1/14: Many casual sports fans may not realize this, but playing in Toronto is the NHL equivalent to playing in New York for baseball, football and basketball. It is a pressure cooker where excellence is expected. The Leafs have won 13 Stanley Cups, but none since even before Woodstock (1967 to be exact). While the team missed out on the playoffs last season, the Leafs look to be an improved squad this season, and have a good chance to get to the tournament. Toronto opens the regular season in a week, with their first game being at home against the Montreal Canadiens.

About 70 janitorial workers from the Fort Belvoir military base have gone on strike to protest hours, wages and benefits they say are being unjustly cut, prompting both a local union and U.S. Rep. Jim Moran (D-Dist. 8) to seek action on their behalf.
The workers are employed at the military base through a contract held by contractors Brown & Pipkins/Acsential of Atlanta, Ga. They allege that the contractor is attempting to reduce their contracted hourly wages and have also attempted to reduce the hours of many workers in an effort to not have to provide full-time benefits such as bereavement leave and pensions.
Calls and emails seeking comments from Brown & Pipkins/Acsential and Fort Belvoir were not returned.
Eva Aleman, 43, is a single mother of three from Lorton who says her contracted 40 hours a week at $13.80 per hour are being unlawfully reduced to 35 hours a week at $11 per hour, and that both her vacation days and sick leave time are being cut in half. "I can't afford to lose the hours, the money or my benefits," she said.
Charges filed with both the National Labor Relations Board and the U.S. Dept. of Labor by local union 32BJ SEIU against the contractor also allege that the company has both disciplined and terminated some workers for protected union activity, and allegedly coerced at least one worker to change their work status.
"B&P has forced at least one worker—under the threat of discharge—to sign an employment agreement allegedly changing her status from employee to 'subcontractor.' We believe that this change in status is invalid as a matter of law and should be investigated and corrected," wrote Katy Dunn, associate general counsel for the union.
"Too many federal contractors like Brown & Pipkins try to break the law and mistreat hard-working janitors," said 32BJ SEIU Capital Area Director, Jaime Contreras. "Nobody wants to strike, but these men and women are willing to do what's necessary to support their families."
Rep. Moran has written a letter to Fort Belvoir Commander Col. Gregory D. Gadson, asking him to rectify the situation. "The allegations are serious and disturbing, and as a result I respectfully request that you investigate the matter and, if appropriate, immediately terminate the installation's contract with Brown & Pipkins/Acsential," he wrote.
On Feb. 21, nearly all 70 janitorial workers picketed in front of Fort Belvoir, holding signs, blowing whistles and blaring their complaints through vocalizations and the blowing of vuvuzelas.
"I work very hard without complaints, all I ask is for a fair chance to get my job back," said Dionicia Gomez, who is one of five janitors--all over 40 years old--who were laid off from their duties at Fort Belvoir on Feb. 1. "It's hard to get by as it is, but without a paycheck, I don't know how I'll support my family."

September 6, 2011
To help doctors give their patients the best possible care, the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) developed evidence-based recommendations on the treatment of stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. This guide for patients contains several recommendations, one of which was updated in September 2011.
Key Messages:
- Chemotherapy for stage IV non-small cell lung cancer may lengthen a patient's life and improve his or her quality of life.
- This patient guide discusses which drugs, and which combination of drugs, are best for patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer based on results from clinical trials. These recommendations depend on the patient and the type of treatment he or she has already received.
- Talk with your doctor about your health and the treatment options that are best for you. Treatment of the symptoms and side effects from the cancer and cancer treatments is also an important part of your care.
Lung cancer begins when normal cells in the lungs change and grow uncontrollably, forming a mass called a tumor. There are two major types of lung cancer: non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type. NSCLC and small cell lung cancer are treated in different ways. This guide covers chemotherapy treatment options for people with stage IV NSCLC.
Stage is a way to describe a cancer, such as how much it has grown and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. Lung cancer may spread to the lymph nodes, the tiny, bean-shaped organs that help fight infection, and other parts of the body, specifically the brain, bones, liver, and/or adrenal glands. Stage IV NSCLC has spread to more than one part of the lung or other distant parts of the body. Learn more about lung cancer staging or treatment options for other stages of lung cancer.
Chemotherapy for NSCLC
People with stage IV NSCLC usually receive chemotherapy, which is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. This is the only treatment that will go everywhere in the body and destroy cancer cells wherever they may be located. Chemotherapy has been shown to improve both length of life and quality of life for patients with NSCLC. However, chemotherapy will not get rid of the cancer completely or cure it. The goal of chemotherapy for stage IV NSCLC is to control the disease so that it will stop growing and spreading. Patients must be prepared to take chemotherapy, on and off, for the rest of their lives to maintain control of the disease. Most chemotherapy used for lung cancer is injected into a vein (called intravenous, or IV injection). Other drugs are pills that can be taken by mouth. There are many different drugs, and drug combinations, from which the doctor and patient can choose. The first drug or combination of drugs a patient takes is called "first-line" treatment, which may be followed by "second-line" and "third-line" treatment. People with stage IV NSCLC may also consider a clinical trial or supportive or palliative care (see below).
The side effects of chemotherapy for NSCLC vary widely, depending on the drug or drug combinations and should be discussed with the doctor before starting treatment. Side effects may include fatigue, low blood cell counts, risk of infection, hair loss, rash, mouth sores, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, hearing problems, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet, or swelling in the ankles. Learn about managing side effects of cancer treatments.
Most types of chemotherapy kill cancer cells by destroying rapidly growing cells, which is why these drugs also affect blood cells and hair cells. Other types of drugs, called targeted therapies, target the cancer's specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to cancer growth and survival. These drugs include bevacizumab (Avastin), cetuximab (Erbitux), and erlotinib (Tarceva), and gefitinib (Iressa; not available in the United States). This type of treatment blocks the growth and spread of cancer cells while limiting damage to normal cells; however, they may cause side effects, such as high blood pressure or bleeding (bevacizumab), rash (cetuximab, erlotinib, gefitinib), and diarrhea (erlotinib, gefitinib).
No specific treatment or combination of treatments works for every patient. If the first-line treatment causes unpleasant or dangerous side effects, does not appear to be working, or stops working, the doctor may recommend a change in treatment.
Performance Status
When making treatment decisions with patients, doctors evaluate a patient's ability to carry out daily activities using an index (zero [0] through four [4]) called performance status. A performance status rating of 0 or 1 means that a person is able to move around easily, be out of bed for more than half the day, and take care of oneself relatively easily. A person who is strong enough to go about his or her daily activities without assistance, including working outside the home, can typically receive chemotherapy and targeted therapy. A performance status rating of 2 means a person cannot do any work, but can still take care of himself or herself and is out of bed for more than half of the day. A patient's performance status is an important factor in helping the doctor and patient decide on treatment options. For example, doctors may recommend targeted therapy, and rarely chemotherapy, for a person with a performance status of 2. Other illnesses, such as heart disease, emphysema, and diabetes may affect a patient's performance status.
Supportive Care
In addition to treatment to slow or stop the cancer (also called disease-directed treatment), an important part of cancer care is relieving a person's symptoms and side effects. It includes supporting the patient with his or her physical, emotional, and social needs, an approach called palliative or supportive care. People often receive disease-directed therapy and treatment to ease symptoms at the same time. Supportive care is always an option for a person with stage IV NSCLC.
ASCO's recommendations for chemotherapy for stage IV NSCLC depend on the patient's performance status and whether a patient is receiving a first-line, second-line, or third-line treatment. ASCO recommends the following for all patients:
- Any patient with good performance status (performance status 0, 1, and possibly 2) should be able to receive chemotherapy. Older patients should not be prevented from receiving chemotherapy based on age alone. Performance status and the patient's overall health are more important factors than age in considering chemotherapy as a treatment option.
ASCO recommends the following for patients receiving first-line treatment:
- The most effective chemotherapy for most patients with performance status 0 and 1 is a combination of two drugs in which one is either carboplatin (Paraplat, Paraplatin) or cisplatin (Platinol). Cisplatin is slightly more effective, but has more side effects than carboplatin, so either is acceptable, depending on the doctor's and the patient's preferences. Types of chemotherapy that may be combined with cisplatin or carboplatin include docetaxel (Taxotere), gemcitabine (Gemzar), irinotecan (Camptosar), paclitaxel (Taxol), pemetrexed (Alimta), and vinorelbine (Navelbine).
- Patients with a performance status of 2 may receive only one drug because there is not enough evidence to recommend taking more than one drug at a time. When a patient takes only one drug, it is typically not carboplatin or cisplatin, but rather one of the drugs commonly paired with carboplatin or cisplatin.
- For patients with a performance status of 3 (in bed or a chair more than half the day), chemotherapy has not been shown to improve quality or length of life and may cause harmful side effects that could worsen a patient's quality of life. In this situation, patients should concentrate on supportive care to improve symptoms and take chemotherapy only with special caution.
- Once a patient starts chemotherapy, treatment should be changed if it causes dangerous or difficult side effects. Chemotherapy should be stopped if the cancer grows, or if after four cycles, the cancer is stable but treatment is not causing the tumor to shrink. Two drug combinations should be given for no more than six cycles (up to five months). For patients with stable disease or cancer that is responding to treatment after four cycles, the doctor may consider immediately starting treatment with another drug, such as pemetrexed (patients with non-squamous cell carcinoma), docetaxel, or erlotinib. Or, the doctor might wait to start second-line chemotherapy until the cancer starts to grow again.
- Most patients should not receive the drugs gefitinib or erlotinib as part of their first-line treatment.
- However, some patients may receive either of these drugs and other targeted treatments as part of their first-line chemotherapy.
- Erlotinib (or gefitinib for patients outside the United States) alone may be recommended for patients with tumors that have a mutation (change) in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene, which can be detected by testing the piece of lung cancer removed during a biopsy (removal of a small amount of tissue for examination under a microscope).
- For patients receiving cisplatin and vinorelbine, cetuximab may be added.
- Bevacizumab may be added to carboplatin and paclitaxel, except for patients who have a specific type of NSCLC called squamous cell carcinoma, or who have a history of coughing up blood, or have had a recent heart attack, blood clot, stroke, or bleeding, or brain metastases.
ASCO recommends the following for second-line treatment for patients with stage IV NSCLC:
- Patients can receive one of the following drugs: docetaxel, erlotinib, gefitinib, or pemetrexed, when the first treatment is no longer effective. There is no evidence that combining treatments is effective or safe for second-line treatment, nor is there enough data to recommend how long a patient should receive a drug.
For patients receiving a third-line treatment, ASCO recommends the following:
- For patients with a performance status of 0 to 3, erlotinib is recommended, as long as they have not previously received this drug or gefitinib. There is not enough evidence to make a recommendation for or against other types of chemotherapy for third-line treatment.
Lastly, ASCO recognizes that most patients with NSCLC may not have any special molecular tests, such as one to detect an EGFR mutation, performed on their tumor. These molecular tests remain investigational, and selecting treatment based on molecular tests has not been shown to improve a patient's overall length of life. Therefore, ASCO does not recommend using any routine molecular analysis of tumor tissue to guide treatment decisions at this time. For patients with an EGFR mutation, erlotinib or gefitinib may be the best first-line therapy, but may also work well as a second or third-line treatment.
To aid future research, ASCO recommends that doctors obtain a larger tissue sample when performing a biopsy so that the samples can be tested, which may be required for patients to participate in some types of clinical trials.
What This Means for Patients
Chemotherapy for stage IV lung cancer may help lengthen and improve the quality of life for many patients with stage IV NSCLC. ASCO recommends different drug combinations based on a patient's performance status, overall health, and previous treatments. A patient's age should never be used as the only reason for deciding which treatment is best. It's important that patients and their families talk with the doctor about the benefits and risks of chemotherapy to help them choose the care that will help maintain or improve their quality of life. Many of these drugs cause different side effects and discussing the possible side effects of these treatments, both as single drugs and in combinations, and how to effectively manage or prevent any side effects can help patients make informed decisions about their care.
If disease-directed treatment is not successful, treatment may then focus on palliative or supportive care. This diagnosis is stressful, and it may be difficult to discuss. However, it is important to have open and honest conversations with your doctor and health care team to express your feelings, preferences, and concerns. The health care team is there to help, and many team members have special skills, experience, and knowledge to support patients and their families. Learn more about advanced cancer care planning.
Questions to Ask the Doctor
To learn more about your treatment options for stage IV NSCLC, consider asking your doctor the following questions:
- What type of lung cancer do I have?
- What is the stage of the cancer? What does this mean?
- What is my performance status? What does this mean?
- What are my treatment options?
- What clinical trials are open to me?
- Which treatment option do you recommend? Why?
- What are the benefits of this treatment?
- How will this treatment affect my daily life? Will I be able to work, exercise, and perform my usual activities?
- What are the names of the drugs, and how are they given?
- What are the side effects of each drug?
- What can be done to lessen these side effects?
- Will some of the side effects end when the treatment ends? Will some last longer?
- Can you or your team help me cope with the side effects of cancer if I decide not to receive chemotherapy, or when chemotherapy is no longer effective?
- How often will I need to visit the doctor to receive treatment, and how long will each visit take?
- Will I be able to go to and return from this treatment on my own, or should I arrange to have assistance?
- If I'm worried about managing the costs related to my cancer care, who can help me with these concerns?
- What support services are available to me? To my family?
- Are there any other concerns or issues I should address at this time?
To help patients talk with their doctor about chemotherapy for stage IV lung cancer, ASCO has created several decision aids. These tools provide information on the risks and benefits of chemotherapy, help for thinking through the decision, and other issues for patients to consider. Use one of these decision aids to begin a discussion with your doctor.

Honda has taken the world's best touring machine in a different direction. The Gold Wing F6B changes all the rules to create the perfect bike for around-town, shorter trips or weekend getaways. Around the legendary liquid-cooled flat-six is a touring machine that's lighter, trimmer, leaner. Its radical new bodywork features a lower windscreen and sleeker fuselage while still surrounding riders with the comfort and luxury you demand from a Gold Wing.
Experience the new innovations and features of the 2014 Gold Wing F6B for yourself with a demo ride at participating dealers.
Luggage performs better when it's designed in, not added as an afterthought. The F6B sports twin-integrated saddlebags with 11 liters of storage each; both are lockable and sealed against the elements.
The Gold Wing powerplant is legendary for power, durability and smoothness, which is why we've chosen the same liquid-cooled six-cylinder for the F6B. And with a lower overall weight, expect even more performance.
A proper touring windscreen isn't for hiding behind; it's to redirect wind up and over the riders. The Gold Wing F6B's lower windscreen offers surprising wind and weather protection while connecting you with the environment all around you.
Gold Wings have been famous for creature comforts. So the Gold Wing F6B comes loaded with everything from surround sound to an adjustable air suspension. The F6B Deluxe goes even further, with self-cancelling turn signals, backrest, heated grips, centerstand and more. You even have your choice of color—luxurious Black or Pearl Yellow.

Germans Are Drinking Less Beer These Days, But Why?
Originally published on Wed February 27, 2013 4:57 pm
For centuries, Germany has been synonymous with beer. Tourists flock from around the world to take part in the country's many beer festivals, including the famous Oktoberfest.
But officials say the German beer tradition is waning. A recent government report found Germans drink less beer now than they did a generation ago. To find out why, I visited some pubs and brew experts in Berlin — and heard a range of explanations.
At the Max and Moritz tavern, in a former working-class neighborhood of the German capital, beer once flowed as freely as the nearby Spree River. The pub is named after the characters of a beloved children's tale whose images adorn the walls and shelves, but it's the beer that this tavern is famous for.
As in most traditional German pubs, local brews are served here from taps or in bottles. On the night I visited, most customers were drinking wine or soda pop.
One of those drinking a soda was my husband's friend, Jan Katzmarczyk, a German lawyer who has sworn off alcohol for Lent. Even when he does drink, the 41-year-old says, he rarely orders a beer anymore — maybe two a week, but not more.
He took us to several well-known pubs in Berlin to see what his country's statistics agency is reporting: that Germans — despite consuming 2 1/2 billion gallons of beer last year — are drinking less beer now than at any time since 1990.
"People might drink less because it has lots of calories," Katzmarczyk says. "People are thinking much about their bellies, and beer is not helping."
At a nearby tavern called Zur Kleinen Markthalle, or "small market hall," there were more beer drinkers. But bartender Andreas Varrelman confirmed what the government is reporting: Fewer patrons order beer these days.
He blamed the decrease on Germany's economic crisis, saying he thinks people are more reluctant to go out and spend money, including on beer.
Marc-Oliver Huhnholz, spokesman for the German Brewers Association, says the waning interest in beer is more about changes to German society.
"We have a shift of the population — the people become older and less younger are following," he says. That means there are fewer Germans in younger age groups, which are more typically associated with beer-drinking.
Huhnholz adds that there are also fewer jobs in fields once associated with drinking beer, like mining and construction. "When the people have built a house or something like this, they opened the first bottle at 8 o'clock in the morning," he says. "Now we have computer work, we have much more mobility, so people are driving cars."
And that means less drinking of alcohol, be it beer or anything else.
Despite the decrease, Huhnholz notes that Germany is still among the top three beer-drinking countries in Europe. The 28 gallons of beer per capita Germans consume every year far exceeds what Americans drink — 21 gallons per capita.
To lure more Germans back to beer-drinking, Huhnholz's brewers are experimenting with new products, including tasty nonalcoholic beers and fruit-flavored beers, as well as unusual mixes, like beer with cappuccino.

Rated 5 out of 5 by HappyCamper OMG! So good! 1) Soft, fresh, absolutely the best botan rice candy I've ever tried, and that's saying a lot. Not dried out, not hard, not stale. I could cry with gratitude. 2). Reasonable price. Far better than amazon. You do have to pay slightly pricey shipping, BUT... 3). Super fast shipping. Placed the order late Oct 01 night. Received early Oct 03 day... Wowza. (from VA to Boston, MA) October 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Krissy Yummy! Great candy from my childhood. Definite recommend to those who've never tried it. August 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Scoobs Memories of childhood I got this candy as a child and fell in love with it. It's unique and fun to watch others try it for the fist time especially when the rice paper dissolves in their mouth. It's nice to know that these favorites are still around for a another generation to try. November 25, 2011
Rated 1 out of 5 by disappointed first time customer good candy, bad condition Had this candy from another source in the past. Bought several boxes as a gift. Upon arrival opened one to make sure it was the same candy. It was, but in very poor shape. It appeared to have been melted at one point. The pieces were stuck to each other and to the box. Needless to say I did not give the remaining boxes away. Have since opened 2 more, same thing. December 28, 2011

Izakaya crawl with SF Hound Osho
Per Osho's post here http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/7506... he, Farman and friend, fmed and moi did a bit of a crawl on a very cold November Wednesday. We didn't have resos anywhere and only got turned away from Gyoza King. We started with 8 or so dishes at Guu Garden, which because of construction is a little hard to find. I wasn't blown away by any of the dishes here, and thought the deep fryer was maybe running a little cool. We tried Cajun onion rings $4.80, yamaimo (marinated mountain yam) $3, yuba suimono (deep fried tofu skin) $4, ingen fries (deep fried green beans) $4, yuzu marinated firefly squid (this one skeeved me out in texture and sharp taste but others really enjoyed it), a tongue dish, gindara saikyo, and a tuna tataki. A couple of the group tried the Guu Ale and pronounced it guud.
Next we scurried through the night in the sub-zero uncharacteristically chilly air to original Guu on Thurlow. There we had spareribs, kakuni (stewed pork with radish, fmed's favourite), grilled pork cheek $5.30, deep fried mackerel $6.30 (this tasted a bit fishy to me but then it was mackerel), yakko (tofu with sashimi) and pumpkin croquette (a bit disappointing -- I like this bettter at Guu with Garlic) . See photo of bill for prices. We also tried the Sayuri sake, which is in a delightful pastel pink bottle but looks milky in the (shot) glass. It was served chilled and I enjoyed it very much but I was cheating as I had brought a bottle home from San Francisco previously.
We soldiered on down the hill to Gyoza King who were too full so we went for the Guu triple header and invaded Guu with Garlic. There we tried the jellyfish, the tuna tataki (IIRC) and a kimchi hotpot. Osho ordered the house sake and kindly shared it, even getting it warm as by this time we were getting quite chilled.I think I may have missed something here as I accidentally deleted the shot of the bill; maybe fmed can help out:-).Our guest of honour needed to head back to his family so we took our leave and farman, fmed and I headed over to Zakkushi for a nightcap of things on sticks.
We tried tsukune, mentayaki, shishitou, shiso maki, mochi maki and momaki. All were tasty though I detected a bit of "gas" flavour on the shishitou which is confusing since they use charcoal to grill here. The standout for me was the garlic bolt wrapped in pork. I've now tried all the Zakkushis and they are officially my favourite izakaya style restos (for now!). Well satiated, we headed home (actually, farman headed to the Bayside but that is another story...).

re: grayelf
zakusshi is on my top 3 list of izakaya's too. i prefer the main location best. they are not all about meat on a stick.
You guys are brave souls to head out in that unusual arctic air last week.
My friends and I also ordered the firefly squid at Guu Garden and were also a little bit sketched out by it. We thought it would be something else.
My personal favourites at Guu Garden is the Saba Shima Sushi and the Beef Tongue cha-zuke.
Thanks for the the report and pics.

re: moyenchow
Sounds like a great crawl!
Agree with moyenchow... the Saba and Beef Tongue at Guu Garden were fantastic. However, if I were wanting to be a glutton, multiple orders of deep fried chicken knees and Sapporo megabeers would be highly appropriate. Liter beers!

re: peter.v
Ha, peter, that's the dish I forgot at Guu with Garlic, chicken knees. Yum!
The beef tongue dish we had at Guu Garden is the fifth one pictured in the first set of photos, where they pour broth over it. Is that the one y'all are liking?
BTB I agree that the Main Street Zakkushi is more than just sticks but I guess sticks are what I'm after at this venue :-).
re: peter.v
Mmm gyuutan cha-zuke...that's my favourite at Guu Garden as well.
Though I also love the yamaimo...not something you get all too often outside of Japan!
My only compaint about that place has been service...I swear they mess up some part of my order every time I go. Though it hasn't stopped me from going back, so, I guess they win.
re: jerkstore
Hey jerkstore, I've been on a bit of a yamaimo kick lately. You can also get it at Ajisai and Tokyo Thyme in Kerrisdale.

ETSU hoops teams help out at MSHA Family Activity Day
Saturday, September 25, 2010
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Sept. 25, 2010) - The ETSU men's and women's basketball team, along with other athletic department personnel, volunteered their time Saturday morning to help out at the Niswonger Children's Hospital's Family Activity Day.
The event, which was held inside the ETSU/Mountain States Health Alliance Athletic Center, was sponsored by multiple organizations, including MSHA, Fit Kids, the Kohl's "Kids on the Move" program, and ETSU athletics.
"It's important for our program to be involved in community service and this was a great opportunity to help support an important effort," said ETSU men's basketball head coach Murry Bartow. "Athletics is about being fit and developing healthy habits that can help a person throughout their life. This day is all about attempting to do that as well."
The Family Activity Day focuses on showing parents and children different ways to spend active time together. Multiple events were made available for participants, including inflatable games, Wii Fit stations, and jump rope activities.
In addition, MSHA's Health Resource Center provided health screenings for blood pressure and body mass index to those that attended.
"We are glad to do our part and help out," said ETSU women's basketball head coach Karen Kemp. "Staying active is so important to a person's quality of life. Hopefully, we were able to promote that to parents and kids today."

Kosher Fish
|Gefilte Fish 'Crab' Cakes
Contributed by Bitayavon Magazine
A Twist on the Traditional
It is sometimes difficult to imagine getting excited about gefitle fish or cholent, being that these are foods eaten every Shabbos and don't change that much in composition and flavor. The following recipe is a creative twist on a traditional dish that transforms the flavor profile and look of traditional Gefilte fish. Your guests will be wowed by this sophisticated modern dish which tastes incredible.
Use old bay seasoning and imitation crab in the filling to transform traditional gefilte fish into a gourmet starter appreciated by all. The spicy mayo adds a kick and is a great accompaniment to the fish cakes. The recipe works well without the imitation crab.
1 roll gefilte fish defrosted
Spicy May Sauce (recipe below)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine defrosted gefilte with celery, red pepper, dill, imitation crab, egg, mayonnaise, old bay seasoning.
Form into patties and coat with panko bread crumbs.
Pour exactly enough oil in frying pan to coat the bottom of the pan, heat on medium heat.
Place patties in frying pan and fry for 2-3 minutes per side; just to get a golden brown color.
Place patties on parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake in oven uncovered for 35-40 minutes.
Spicy Mayo Sauce:
1 cup mayonnaise
Mix ingredients together. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Yields: Serves: 12
Recipes: Side Dishes, Fish, Parve, Kosher

Hello Everyone,
Is it possible to hook up the Spoolmate 3035 to the MM175 without using a control box??? I opened up the 175 for a peek inside. I noticed that the wires from the 2 prong standard gun are routed to a large multi wired plug that plugs into the circuit board. That large plug at the board has several open slots.
The spoolmate gun has a 4 wire connector. Do the extra 2 wires on the 3035 hook to 2 of the openings on the large circuit board plug?????
I'd luv to be able to use the $250.00 I have to spend on the control box for my next project.

Tacmig is right, but it is well worth it. I love mine. Every time I use it, I have a stupid grin on my face. ('Course, my wife says that's the way I always look, but you get the idea.)

Scent is great. Not too strong and not too subtle. It's a scent to use on any occasion. I have been looking all over the place for this cologne and was so glad to find it that I placed an order for 2 bottles. The only complaint I have is that it took forever to receive the product.

If progressives are so influential how come we didn't get a public option?I suspected I would get the reaction I did from the "liberal" regulars on this forum.
Maybe you consider yourselves the unique few that can really see things objectively. It's pretty obvious that many of you don't, and your comebacks consist of quips or pictures that dismiss what I write as a joke. How can one even think that your outlook on life could have been remotely been shaped by the media and your schooling? Get real.
Aside from your parents, your biggest role models will be mentors like teachers and/or celebrity idols etc. Many kids don't even have two parents to guide them, so guess who is going to have a big impact on their beliefs and outlook?
It's easier to laugh and reject everything I put forth on here, because otherwise it would mean admitting you have been duped by your beloved professors and TV programs.
The second pro-Obama ad has been compared to ads that uses children to exalt North Korea's leaders. Maybe you need a more side by side comparison to see my point.
The Dunham Obama ad has been compared to an ad that was done by Vladamir Putin. Again, appealing to people's emotions and has no substance as a means to influence voters.
Again, not playing to the victim card, but I am simply showing how entrenched "liberal" or "Progressive" propaganda has become, and such ads are sadly similar to those ads found in Russia or North Korea.
People should be insulted by the ads, and dismayed at the use of kids as a political tool. I have seen kids used too many times used as a means to push through so many Propositions for fear that education will get cut and children will suffer. It's almost always misleading, and the schools rarely benefit because such funds are used pay off the teachers unions (not teachers) instead of getting books and school supplies. These unions, in turn, help to keep those who create these Propositions in power.
Furthermore, many of you have bought into "climate change" as being our ultimate demise or "class warfare" as a zero sum game between the rich and poor. As you read this, you think how stupid or how dare he challenge the very tenets of liberalism. Where do you think you learned these beliefs? Likely your professors or your favorite MSNBC program. Just saying.
Ultimately, the name-calling or jokes just mask an uncomfortable insecurity in your own belief system, and the need to have it reaffirmed by those similarly deluded.
I don't believe in the Illuminati nor do I believe that that we are living in "1984" as of yet, so you can put your tin foil hats away. However, I do believe that the "Progressives" are now running the show (think media-government complex), and have in a sense become "the system," "the machine" or "the man." Americans turn to "the system" hoping they (socialized government) have the answers, but ultimately these Progressive leaders placate their followers with false hopes and buy votes through government subsidized programs and welfare. Those that do speak out against big government (namely libertarians or conservatives) are labeled as racists, religious zealots, misogynists, plutocrats (usually without cause), and are summarily dismissed by the media as not being PC or out of touch.
The government needs to be held accountable to the people, but not enough people are questioning the motives and the actions of their chosen leaders. The issue is being further compounded by a media that propagates government lies (Benghazi for example) and an educational system that doesn't teach kids to think critically but encourages collectivism or group think. America was founded on individualism, and taking calculated risks not being lemmings.
Obama tells us to just trust him and the government with our healthcare (Obamacare), trust them with out tax payer money (massive stimulus spending that result in hemorrhaging debt), and on foreign policy matters (he'll stop Iran from getting the nuke but couldn't do a thing about Benghazi). Anyone who trusts "the system" will come away disappointed. It's time to shake things up, and buck "the system" in 2012 by voting the incumbent out of office.

Obama takes military action in Ukraine off the table.
Personally, I don't see any reason to get involved in military action either, but Obama is being an idiot to rule it out publicly. Of course he does tend to lie so who knows what the bleep is going on.
This is just giving Putin tremendous joy. Ukraine is his whenever he wants.
Obama is letting this thing get out of control. We are going to a gunfight, not with a knife, but a community activist mediator.

Softball Sweeps Tennessee Wesleyan in First Home Games of the Season
Tuesday, March 05, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (Mar. 5, 2002) -- The East Tennessee State softball team defeated the Tennessee Wesleyan Lady Bulldogs, 9-1 and 6-2, in their first home games of the season Tuesday afternoon from Metro-Kiwanis Park in Johnson City, Tenn. The Bucs (5-7) got on the board in the bottom of the second as sophomore pitcher Tiffany Vandergriff (Sale Creek, Tenn.) lined a double to left center, driving home three runs. Tennessee Wesleyan (1-5) answered in the top of the third, scoring a run of their own as shortstop Shasta Gatlin came home on an error. ETSU loaded the bases in the bottom of the fourth and Vandergriff cleared them with a grand slam home run, blowing the game open, 7-1 after the fourth inning. Freshman right fielder Amy Moore (Jacksonville, Fla.) ended the game with a two-run double in the bottom of the fifth, making the final score 9-1. Vandergriff finished the game 2-3 with a double, a home run, seven RBI and a stolen base. She also picked up the win on the mound, pitching 2.2 innings, allowing one hit and striking out three Lady Bulldogs. Moore continued her hot play of late, going 3-3 at the plate, scoring two runs and driving in two. East Tennessee State wasted no time getting on the scoreboard in game two, scoring three runs in the bottom of the first inning. The key blows of the inning were a home run by Moore and a two-run single by sophomore outfielder Rhea Holler (Peoria, Ariz.). Moore's bat did not cool down for her next at-bat, as she belted another homer to left-center on the first pitch of the third inning to make the score 4-0 in favor of the Bucs. ETSU put another run on the board as sophomore infielder Julia Chance (Knoxville, Tenn.) scored on an error. Tennessee Wesleyan fought back, scoring two runs in the top of the sixth to make the score 5-2. first baseman Nikki Shockley singled home center fielder Amanda Potuk, who led off the inning with a walk. Shockley would later score on a passed ball. The Bucs closed the scoring with a run in the bottom of the sixth. Holler singled to lead off the inning and was driven home by Chance, who followed with a triple. Senior pitcher Marsha Giles (Jonesborough, Tenn.) pitched a complete game, allowing one earned run and four hits while striking out two. Moore went 2-3 at the plate with two home runs. For the doubleheader, Moore and Vandergriff dominated at the plate. Vandergriff went 3-7 with seven RBI, two stolen bases and a run scored.

Comments On Oct 28, 2013:Terrain: Wide Trails and gravel roads. I wanted something that would give me traction yet allow me to powerslide with control, the chamfered edge lugs allow this, other tires have too aggressive edge lugs that bite hard on a slide. This is definately a great tire.

What we're told vs what it actually says vs how it's interpreted.
My state was among the first to pass seat belt laws. We were promised that it was only a secondary offense. No one could be stopped just for not wearing a seat belt. There had to be another legitimate reason for the stop before the seat belt ticket could be written. That lasted a few years until the state government needed money. Suddenly seat belt violations are a primary offense.
Traps were also outlawed here. It is illegal to use any type of harmful trap when hunting bear, cougar, coyote, wolf, raccoons, etc, etc, etc. This did not include nuisance pests such as moles, ground squirrels, etc. Once the law passed those interpreting the law read it differently than those who wrote the law and now it does include nuisance pests that dig up our yards. It was a bit embarrassing when the gounds crew at the state capital were caught using mole traps. Of course, as government workers, they weren't fined or put out of business like others. Now we poison our soil to kill the food source for these nuisance pests to keep them out of our yards. It's just a matter of time before all poison that has a negative effect on our rivers, lakes and ocean.
Could our elected officials have voted against a law because of what might be in it or how it might be interpreted? Absolutely. How much time do they get to read and understand UN treaties? It's not uncommon for legislation to be finalized in the morning and voted on in the afternoon before anyone except the authors know all the details.
To be fair, GOP has to play to their base. The United Nations isnt exactly popular among conservatives. But this sort of pettiness is beyond absurd. There is a theory floating around that many voted against this to avoid tea party challenges in future elections, but even that "logic" rings false to me. The fact that they pulled Bob Dole from his deathbed to attend this mockery just makes this entire thing all the more more disgraceful.
Either way, ill be laughing my ass off when conservatives nerdrage about the need for our "leadership" around the world. We create a gold standard that the rest of the world wants to adopt that has absolutely no down side and Republicans cant vote against it fast enough. I suppose our "leadership" is only warranted when it comes to staring through the scope of a rifle.

I appreciate symbolism, i really do. I appreciate the Rocky or The Rudy that faces insurmountable odds and while they may not win, they can be victorious, their courage inspires others to dream and drive them to be their best. Nothing suggests this treaty would have improved one vets life....so whats the symbol we are suppose to aspire to? We already lead because we have had ADA and now some UN countries aspire to do what we have....they symbolism has already been achieved.
