Chemotherapy is a drug treatment that uses powerful chemicals to kill fast-growing cells in your body.
Chemotherapy is most often used to treat cancer, since cancer cells grow and multiply much more quickly than most cells in the body.
Many different chemotherapy drugs are available. Chemotherapy drugs can be used alone or in combination to treat a wide variety of cancers.
Though chemotherapy is an effective way to treat many types of cancer, chemotherapy treatment also carries a risk of side effects. Some chemotherapy side effects are mild and treatable, while others can cause serious complications.
Chemotherapy is used to kill cancer cells in people with cancer.
There are a variety of settings in which chemotherapy may be used in people with cancer:
Some chemotherapy drugs have proved useful in treating other conditions, such as:
Side effects of chemotherapy drugs can be significant. Each drug has different side effects, and not every drug causes every side effect. Ask your doctor about the side effects of the particular drugs you'll receive.
Common side effects of chemotherapy drugs include:
Many of these side effects can be prevented or treated. Most side effects subside after treatment ends.
Chemotherapy drugs can also cause side effects that don't become evident until months or years after treatment. Late side effects vary depending on the chemotherapy drug but can include:
Ask your doctor if you have a risk of any late side effects. Ask what signs and symptoms you should be alert for that may signal a problem.
How you prepare for chemotherapy depends on which drugs you'll receive and how they'll be administered. Your doctor will give you specific instructions to prepare for your chemotherapy treatments. You may need to:
Make arrangements for help at home and at work. Most chemotherapy treatments are given in an outpatient clinic, which means most people are able to continue working and doing their usual activities during chemotherapy. Your doctor can tell you in general how much the chemotherapy will affect your usual activities, but it's difficult to predict exactly how you'll feel.
Ask your doctor if you'll need time off work or help around the house after treatment. Ask your doctor for the details of your chemotherapy treatments so that you can make arrangements for work, children, pets or other commitments.
Prepare for your first treatment. Ask your doctor or chemotherapy nurses how to prepare for chemotherapy. It may be helpful to arrive for your first chemotherapy treatment well-rested. Eat a light meal beforehand in case your chemotherapy medications cause nausea.
Have a friend or family member drive you to your first treatment. Most people can drive themselves to and from chemotherapy sessions. But the first time you may find that the medications make you sleepy or cause other side effects that make driving difficult.
Your doctor chooses which chemotherapy drugs you'll receive based on several factors, including:
Discuss your treatment options with your doctor. Together you can decide what's right for you.
Chemotherapy drugs can be given in different ways, including:
Your doctor determines how often you'll receive chemotherapy treatments based on what drugs you'll receive, the characteristics of your cancer and how well your body recovers after each treatment. Chemotherapy treatment schedules vary. Chemotherapy treatment can be continuous, or it may alternate between periods of treatment and periods of rest to let you recover.
Where you'll receive your chemotherapy treatments depends on your situation. Chemotherapy treatments can be given:
You'll meet with your cancer doctor (oncologist) regularly during chemotherapy treatment. Your oncologist will ask about any side effects you're experiencing, since many can be controlled.
Depending on your situation, you may also undergo scans and other tests to monitor your cancer during chemotherapy treatment. These tests can give your doctor an idea of how your cancer is responding to treatment, and your treatment may be adjusted accordingly.

anybody interested in knitting together this weekend?
My felted belt has a long story which begins with my apparent weight gain. I had this old leather belt that couldn't stand life anymore, so it broke as I was walking down the hallway at work.
Yep, this newbie knitter neophyte is knitting his first sock. Just using a Red Heart sport weight here.
I am working on the "Dashing" fingerless gloves by Cheryl Niamath.
I was doing a three needle bind off on the shoulders of my knit-in-the-round Fair Isle sweater when I realised I'd made a mistake about 4"(10cm) down.

I just purchased my first TIG machine, a syncrowave 180SD (serial no. LB037766, stock no. 903600). The previous owner had this machine and another for sale stating that he was a hobbyist and both machine had given him trouble and he was done with them. This machine had the main board replaced, new HF capacitor and new arc points; however, the HF was still not working. Once home I started testing and discovered the following:
-63 volts unloaded output on DC stick and TIG
-77.5 volts unloaded output on AC stick
-73.0 volts unloaded output on AC tig
-120 volts output from main transformer via red leads (wire numbers 4 and 9)
-0 volts output from main board via lines 4 and 31 to the HF transformer
-Operation of stick without remote and tig with remote worked
I am concerned that all unloaded outputs are less than the specified 80 volts, and particularly concerned that it appears the main board is not outputting the 120 volts to the HF transformer.
I'd greatly appreciate any recommendations as to what I should test next as right now it seems to me to be the main board (hopefully Im wrong). If it is the main board I am curious if anyone has a schematic for it?

Sweet Surprise from the Neilsons
You could tell something was going on yesterday because the administration was crowded into the Mess Hall at lunch, attention fixed upon the hooded figure placed before the student body. Pictures were taken, hands were shaken, and not a single student had the slightest clue what was going on. This confusion was quickly solved by Dean Neilson, who started his announcement by absolving himself of all involvement in the events about to ensue, crediting his wife, Denise, instead. A few eyebrow-raising comments about "25 pounds of hair" later, the figure was unzipped to reveal a chocolate bunny the likes of which Webb Institute has never seen before. Standing proudly at 3 feet tall and weighing in at a whopping 25 pounds, this hare was certainly a welcome addition to the Webb Family. To prevent the mounting free-for-all, Dean Neilson wisely delegated the task of rabbit distribution to the Food Chairman, Jack Oczeretko.
No word has been given on whether or not this bunny is of the egg-hiding variety, but only time will tell.

Haroutunian started with OR in 1999. "At that time," he said, "the show was doing fine and growing steadily, but we fit in Salt Lake in a nice way." Since then, the Salt Palace Convention Center has completed two significant expansion projects, in 2000 and 2005, the latter growing the venue to 679,000 square feet. And yet, Haroutunian said, "both of those times, by the time the construction had finished, we had already filled out the space."
It's a problem that most meeting planners and trade-show organizers would be happy to have — and yet it's still a problem: too many attendees. What happens when a show that's been fixed in one city for years, or has committed ahead of time to a building that can no longer contain it, starts to press at the limits of its chosen venue? What do you do? Or where do you go?
One way that Outdoor Retailer has dealt with its growing pains is by taking steps to limit attendance. And if s chosen to do that by raising the bar on registration requirements for attendees from within drive-in distance, meaning that people without a natural barrier to attendance — such as the necessity of buying a plane ticket — have to meet more stringent requirements. OR's logic is that if you're willing to fly in, if s more likely that you're not just coming to gawk at the latest in outdoor gear. "We have gotten more aggressive with improving the quality of attendance on behalf of exhibitors who are paying for the show," Haroutunian said, "by keeping out those who aren't really qualified to attend."
This practice isn't unique to OR. In fact, it's a step that the ever-popular International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) — which is always held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, and in 2013 drew more than 152,000 attendees — also has taken. According to a spokesperson for the show, "All International CES attendees must verify and show proof that they work in the technology industry or related industries."
Outdoor Retailer works with officials from Visit Salt Lake, the city's DMO, to identify legitimate industry professionals who should be allowed to attend, "so that they aren't garage bandits," Haroutunian said, meaning home tinkerers or outdoor enthusiasts without much real buying potential. In addition, the show has its own registration team and registration partner company who work on qualifying attendees. Who is the ideal attendee for OR? Broadly speaking, buyers and other representatives from outdoor retail stores. Even attendees based in or around Salt Lake City who have been on the registration list for a long time in some cases have been asked to re-qualify. "Maybe it passed muster five years ago," Haroutunian said, "but it might not now."
As for non-local attendees — anyone who must fly in to attend — Haroutunian isn't as worried about screening them. The cost of getting to the show is enough of a deterrent for people who aren't serious potential buyers. And while OR hasn't set a specific maximum number of attendees, exhibitors for the most part have responded favorably to the stricter registration requirements because they increase the average quality of attendee across the board.
Limiting attendance isn't something many shows are keen to do, however — for obvious reasons. "I don't think many shows would limit attendees, because that's the lifeblood... for exhibitors," said Hugh Easley, vice president of meetings and exhibitions for the National Association of College Stores (NACS), which in recent years has held its Campus Market Expo (CAMEX) — drawing an average of 2,100 attendees, not including exhibitor personnel — in Kansas City, Dallas, and Salt Lake. "You want to have the most attendees you can put through your show efficiently to provide ROI for more exhibitors."
While CAMEX might be unwilling to limit attendees, the show has reined in its exhibit hall, so that the ratio of exhibitors to attendees doesn't drop too low. For the last five years or so, CAMEX has maintained its number of booths at about 1,550 to 1,600, balanced against total non-exhibitor attendance most recently, at the Kansas City Convention Center this past February, of 2,578.
One way to keep the number of exhibitors in check is through an invitation-only policy, as several groups that Lawson Hockman, vice president of association services at IMN Solutions, has worked with have done. "Vetting is done through the network," Hockman said. "The groups I've worked with, they know the companies they want to do business with," and they issue them a non-transferable invitation to attend the event. "Sort of like we get for [social] parties."
But you have to be consistent when it comes to whom you do and don't invite. "If you have five rules to be a member or an exhibitor," Hockman said — such as not having any intellectual property violations, or any restrictions on doing business with the government — you can't waive a rule. If you do, you leave yourself open to a lawsuit. Although the specific rules are particular to each group, the premise still applies. "If you change a rule for one," Hockman said, "you have to notify other potential and present exhibitors that a rule has changed."
You have to apply the same standards to awaiting list, as well — another way that max-capacity shows are able to contain demand and remain in their chosen venue. Indeed, for Sam Lippman, who as president of Lippman Connects produces the Exhibition and Convention Executives Forum (ECEF), the Large Show Roundtable, the Exhibit Sales Round-table, and the Attendee Acquisition Roundtable, a waiting list is the best option for "people who are wall-bound in convention centers." When you are sold out, he said, "there is an excitement and energy that is positive for face-to-face events." But of course it's not all positive. "You are leaving money on the table," Lippman said. "And as the waiting list grows, the possibility of a new splinter event being created with those waiting-list people grows."
So how do you manage your waiting list? Lippman relates the story of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF). Three years ago, Chris Dolnack, NSSF's senior vice president and chief marketing officer, "took the pretty bold move of disinviting an entire product category" from the organization's annual 62,000-attendee SHOT (Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade Show and Conference), which for a "long, long time" now has been held at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Las Vegas. By doing so, Dolnack opened up exhibit space at the previously "wall-bound" show for new companies that attendees had been clamoring to see — as Dolnack knew from surveys that NSSF conducted — but couldn't, because of space constraints.
Outdoor Retailer has taken a similar but less drastic step. According

For every exhibition, Conservators work closely with the Curators and the Exhibitions Department to ensure that the objects selected will be displayed to their best advantage.
Our highly successful open conservation lab recently received funding for a third year and will run at least through August 2015. We continue to learn a lot (Number 1 question asked by visitors: "Is it real?"). Even though the objects being treated in the Artifact Lab have all been in our collections for many decades, the potential for new discoveries (or re-discoveries) has been amazing.
"How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time". With collections as large as the Museum's, it is a major undertaking to try to keep up with their conservation needs. One way to address this is to break it down into manageable chunks. The Conservation Department has, over the past decades, undertaken surveys of discreet segments of the collections, determining their condition, their storage requirements, and prioritizing their conservation treatments.
Conservation surveys provide a useful means of assessing the health of our collections and determining conservation priorities. Current surveys include the Ur Digital Project, funded by the Leon Levy Foundation; the Lapithos survey, supported by a grant from the Foundation of the American Institute for Conservation and funded by the Samuel H. Kress Foundation; and the Buddhist Murals survey, supported by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation and Michael Feng and Winnie Chin Feng.
Objects being prepared to go on exhibition get conserved, but they also need care while on exhibition. Each Monday, when the Museum is closed to the public, our Conservation Technicians, together with staff from the Exhibitions Department, and the relevant Curatorial Section, work in the Galleries.
The stone reliefs depicting two of the favorite horses of Emperor Taizong (r. 626-649 CE) are among the Museum's greatest treasures. Examinations conducted in 2008 showed that the mending, done sometime shortly after the reliefs arrived at the Museum in 1918, was no longer stable.
All of the objects in the Painted Metaphors exhibition were examined by the Museum's conservators, and given any treatment necessary to render them stable for exhibition and travel.
Collections care and conservation work at the Penn Museum is ongoing and overseen by the Museum's Conservation Department. As resources become available, the conditions in which our collections are kept are continually upgraded.

|Three Pepper Tagine with Eggs
Adapted from Easy Vegetarian One-Pot, Ryland Peters & Small
This is one of those dishes you'll find in Morocco at street stalls, bus stations and working men's cafes. Quick, easy and colorful, it is a great dish for lunch or a tasty snack, served with warmed flat breads.
2 tablespoons olive oil
Heat the oil in the base of a tagine, flameproof baking dish or heavy-based frying pan. Add the onions, garlic, cumin and coriander seeds and sauté, stirring, until the onions begin to soften. Toss in the peppers and olives and sauté until they begin to color. Season well with salt and pepper.
Using your spoon, push aside the peppers to form little pockets for the eggs. Crack the eggs in the pockets and cover for 4-8 minutes until the eggs are cooked. Scatter the paprika over the top and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve immediately from the tagine or pan, with warmed flat bread on the side.

Phase One IQ140 vs Hasselblad H4D-50
February 27, 2013, 10:06:55 AM »
Hi Everyone,
Over the past year and a half, I have been waiting patiently for Canon to come out with a new camera with higher resolution and potentially a larger sensor (says rumors). This weekend, I grew tired of waiting.
I have decided to make the step up to mf. I have done a bit of research and from chatting with two local dealers (one for phase, one for hassy) I am able to purchase the IQ140/645DF+/80mm (new) or the H4D-50/80mm (Certified Pre-Owned) for a difference of a $3k (phase more expensive).
I will be keeping my canon system as a back up. The work I do ranges from food/still life/people photography (80% of time my camera is on a tripod) to landscapes which I love using up to 400mm (100% on tripod) and filters from Lee and Singh ray.
Here are my pros and cons of each potential system
I am very familiar with this system.
I love how I only need one battery
enjoy using the tilt-shift adaptor, think its brilliant!
like the 300mm option they have along with the teleconverter.
Love the 50mp resolution and think its a sweet spot for my work. Also like that its a full frame sensor and not cropped.
True Focus seems pretty awesome
Stuck with one system (can't use technical cameras),
while I am familiar with phocus I tend to like C1 more.
its certified pre-owned and everything should be fine, the phase would be brand new.
Body/Back seems more rugged, and for my landscapes I "feel" it maybe be better for the different weather conditions than the hassy.
Love the Touch screen/Retina LCD, just seems so field friendly. Touch focus and viewing images at 100% on the LCD to check focus is great!
The option to use a technical camera later on when I have more funds.
Like how integrated c1 can potentially be. I will be keeping my canon and it just makes sense to be able to use c1 for both systems. Profoto integration for my studio lights (which I dont have yet, but looking at).
Like the v-grip idea to trigger profoto lights.
would ideally want the 160 but its a huge price gap another $8k.
Not sure about the crop sensor, seems like I will be stepping up to mf, but only half way in my quest for bigger sensor.
40mp is better than what I have now, but the hassy is 50 and larger sensor.
have to worry about two batteries, and I'd imagine when I'm out doing landscape, I'll have to carry a twice as much.
maybe not as good value compared to the hassy
So now I'm stuck. I'm going to be visiting both dealers and ask if I can test them out, but I'm not sure if that will change much of my opinion. I "plan" to keep whichever digital back I get for 3 years or more. I have also considered the P65+ however after seeing the features of the touch screen/retina lcd, its as future proof.
Hopefully you guys can chime in and help me out! Its so much money and I'm not as familiar or technical as you guys are! Help

A few random thoughts (from an openly biased point of view):
First and foremost don't OVERLY concern yourself with the technicals. Fact of the matter is both of those systems will produce great image quality. I would be the first to point out there will be image quality differences and they may (or may not) matter to you. But in all likelihood the other factors here will end up mattering more. So if you have a feeling you'll simply "enjoy" one camera more than another, or you like the feel of shooting with one over the other don't overlook those factors. In the end, great art has been created by nearly every camera ever made, and both of these cameras are very good.
- The new LiOn battery for the Phase One body really does last in the neighborhood of 10k shots. So while I agree that the H4D-50 has an advantage regarding having one battery instead of two, this advantage I think is much smaller now that changing batteries on the P1 body is something you don't have to do very often - at all. Also, the separate battery for the digital back means the P1 back does not require any external/additional power to shoot on a tech camera or a view camera. If you plan on having the back for many years to come the chances are pretty decent you'll get the tech camera bug at some point (you write that you "can't use tech cameras" with the H4D-50; that is definitely not true, you can. Though there are several big advantages P1 has when using a tech camera.).
- The built-in two-axis level for the IQ is really nice for landscape. It's arbitrarily easy to get level in the field, and when you get back from the field you can select all and "auto horizon correct". In addition you can auto correct the perspective/keystone of the image so that if you did a bit of a tripod tilt up/down and want the image to maintain a proper vertical perspective you can do that with a single click (not as good as doing it in camera for big movements, but just as good for small movements and better/faster than doing it in photoshop).

Some other things to consider... not in any particular order
Software (C1 is easier for me and feature rich)
Vibration (DF is not so great for long lenses)
Sync speed (DF only some lenses have adequate sync speed all okay on H)
Auto focus (True focus is excellent)
Hi ISO (H4-40 may be the best - not sure about H4-50)
Ergonomics - have you tried both in your hands?

I would suggest you to reconsider P65+. Are you sure you need all IQ series features? If you do, keep an eye on used IQ160, or a demo unit at your local dealer. The bigger the better (sensor) is really true here. But, since you are lucky to have a dealer near by, it's very helpful to try all of these cameras.

Wow. You have a very conflicting set of pros and cons - not going to be an easy decision, that's for sure.
I think you need to approach this from a slightly different perspective to reach a conclusion (although based on your language, I think the conclusion is already inevitable).
Your pros for one system are the most significant con for the other. For example:
Phase? No tilt-shift adapter. That is a big con for the Phase system, and you don't list it as such.
Kind regards (from a very happy IQ180 owner),

Thanks for clarifying about using the hasselblad on a tech camera. I just spoke with someone, and they mentioned that in order to use the hassy on a tech camera, I'd need to use it with an external battery to power up the back. It all makes sense now, and I like the IQ more because I don't have to buy another battery, and its more integrated. I will be going to the store tomorrow to get a feel of the 645DF+ since I've never used it before.
When you say you notice a difference in image quality, are you referring to crop vs full frame, or phase vs hassy?
Hmmm interesting point about vibration. Never occurred to me. Is there a lot of vibration when used with the mirror up? Sync speed isnt much of an issue since I use some daylight for food photography and we aren't stopping motion for those. How does the 645DF+ AF compare? Ive only used the H4D a few things, and it seemed sufficient compared to my canon system, would it be safe to say that the 645DF+ is slower than the hassy?
My friend has an old back that I can trade in, so with that, the price of a used P65+ might be close to the new IQ. I also just have a tough time thinking of the P65+ when Ive seen what can be done with an IQ back.
Never thought about them, will do some research tonight!
Its tough right!!! I omitted phase not having a tilt shift system because I would mainly use tilt shift when shooting landscapes and I will most likely get a tech camera. With that I think I'll have more options.
Thanks Everyone for your input. Still haven't made a decision, but with more info things are a tad clearer.

I would say the exact opposite. But hopefully you get a chance to handle both bodies and make up your own mind. Taking other people's opinions on autofocus performance is only going to get you so far. Also, a lot of people confuse the DF+ with the DF or AF (previous generation bodies). The DF+ autofocus is quite good.

yes yes and yes. All will produce different renderings. "Image Quality" often get's portrayed as a singular objective measure that can only be "better" or "worse" but as just one example the IQ140 uses a Dalsa sensor and the H4D-50 uses a Kodak sensor which are widely known to have different color renderings; no one can tell you for sure which color rendering (Kodak or Dalsa) you'll prefer, but I can promise you you'd see a difference between the two.

Also remember if you decide to go ahead later and get a view camera that you need to shoot a dark exposure for the IQ. That is a huge stumbling block for me. Think of it, for every exposure you shoot, you have to follow it with a 2nd exposure of equal length. IE you shoot a 60 second exposure, than you have to shoot a 2nd 60 second exposure and start tapping those toes. I tested an IQ 160 recently and although it is a lovely back it is the main reason why I could never realistically work with it.
The H4D also as a built in spirit level.
You can use a Hasselblad Back on a view Camera. You don't need to shoot a dark exposure.
A quantum turbo 3 battery back hooked up to a H4D Back on a view camera will outlast any alternative. I just spent 6 days shooting landscape. I charged the battery once in that time.

Will be trying it out for the first time tomorrow!

Thanks for your input! Didnt know you had to do two exposures. Is that for all view cameras and the IQ backs? or based on how long the exposure is? This would be something that I would most likely forget to do often! Do view cameras require a battery as well? I haven't dont much research but saw a few threads with alpas and they look so nice!

I think there is a misunderstanding regarding the "dark frame" that Phase backs make when photographing long exposures.
Phase backs do NOT require you to "remember" to take a "dark frame" during long exposures; a dark frame is done automatically by the MFDB. The digital back then uses this information to better process noise in the image. I have not found this to be an issue, particularly since long exposure capability of the IQ180 is a rather paltry 2 minutes. At ISO 35 I find myself rarely over 30 seconds or a minute when doing longer exposures.
A dark frame is only taken by the back for long exposures only---not every frame that you take with a Phase DF or other camera such as a technical camera (no batteries).
It's easier than you think. I find using a technical camera easier (and more enjoyable) to use with a MFDB than a Phase DF or a DSLR.
It is a good practice to take an LCC frame to compensate for movements when using a technical camera, adjusting in post. This too becomes rather easy to incorporate into your own personal workflow.
It seems to me the ideal system for you would require a slightly higher budget: used/certified IQ160, H4x, and a technical camera. Best of both worlds!
Personally, I'd place more emphasis on the system that gives you more personal enjoyment. After that, all else will fall into place.

I'm not a fan of the DF or any of its previous generations. I shoot with an Rollei AFi which I love. I have the AFi-ii 12 back which is essentially the same as an Aptus 12 R but built for the Rollei Hy6/AFi. If I didn't shoot with the AFi then I would probably have an H4. I have a older hasselblad CF 528 back also which I sometimes use as well. Previously I worked with a phase back. In a way they are all good. There is more differences in the camera bodies and lenses for me than the backs, especially if you shoot tethered a lot like I do. Read about the DF's. Many have complained about vibration with longer lenses and slow shutter speeds even when locked down on tripods. Viewfinder is significantly better in the the Rollei and the H bodies than in the DF bodies too. Forgot about that. Also you can use WLF and prisms on the H and Hy6 whereas with the DF you are stuck with the one option.

Thank you for clarifying! That isn't so bad then, and seems easier to handle. I'm really leaning away from the IQ140. This may sound weird, but I saw the sensor of the 140 and just felt very dslr
Sad I know since the quality is great, but just doesn't seem right.
Thanks for your suggestions. I think I'm going to start refocussing my efforts. I feel I'm asking too much for my budget.
My first goal now is to get the best sensor I can. I played with the DF+ body and I have experience with the H bodies, and to be honest, they are about the same to me. I love the fact that I can use the Hasselblad back on a technical camera, just opens up more options.
I've also downloaded sample files from Hasselblad to see the difference between 50 vs 50ms vs 200ms. While the native file from the 200ms was massive, it was nice to see that when blown up and with a bit of sharpening, the 50 and 50 ms weren't too far off. Its still not as good as the 200ms, but the quality is there. I don't imagine needing to print larger than a 60" wide, so I think a 50 mp sensor from hassy or a P65+ is a great spot for me.

Lewis Hamilton had no complaints after his new chassis helped him secure fourth place in Sunday's United States GP.
Last time out in Abu Dhabi, the Mercedes driver struggled for pace with his team later revealing that there was a crack in his chassis.
Handed a new one for this weekend's race at the Circuit of the Americas, Hamilton qualified in fourth place before bringing his W04 home in the same position.
"The car was night and day different compared to where it was in Abu Dhabi, so I'm sure the new tub helped," he said.
"I'm really just so happy that I could contribute and get some points for the guys. They've been working so hard all year and they've had so many difficult races in this half of the season.
"To finally have a half decent qualifying, move forward, utilise the tyres and have life left in them, makes me really, really happy."
Hamilton's race on Sunday was largely uneventful as once he was overtaken by Mark Webber he had lonely race.
He did, however, come under pressure from Fernando Alonso in the closing stages with the Ferrari driver finishing just two seconds behind.
"I could see Fernando was catching, so I was just looking after the tyres and waiting until he started to push," he told Autosport.
"He started to push, so I reacted a little bit.
"When he was going to bring out a tenth, I was going to bring two tenths. When he was going to bring three, I was going to bring four.
"I'm really, really happy I could do that today."

Justin Timberlake to appear on 'SNL' anniversary special
Justin Timberlake's so-called 'comeback album,' "The 20/20 Experience," received positive reviews from critics and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 behind first-week sale of nearly one million copies. What it didn't earn were any Grammy awards. In fact, the pop star was shut out of every other major category – including song and record of the year. Will this year mark a turnaround for Timberlake?
Justin was nominated twice at the 2015 Grammys for the coveted album of the year award, thanks to his guest vocals on "Brand New" from Pharrell's album "G I R L" and for co-producing "Partition" on Beyonce's self-titled release.
Though he didn't take home any hardware, there's one place Timberlake will always have the proverbial seat at the table – on "Saturday Night Live." In fact, the five-time host has signed on appear at SNL's 40th anniversary special, alongside Paul McCartney, Kanye West, Paul Simon and Taylor Swift. The show airs February 15th at 8 p.m. on NBC and will be a three-hour event.
And finally, to prove that all is right in the world of Justin, we saved the best news for last. Justin recently celebrated his birthday with a photo of a very special 'present' posted to his Instagram account. The photo showed him kissing wife Jessica Biel's pregnant stomach. Justin wrote, "That you EVERYONE for the Bday wishes! This year, I'm getting the GREATEST GIFT EVER. CAN'T WAIT. #BoyOrGirl #YouNeverKnow #WeDontEvenKnow #WeAreTakingBets."
Justin Timberlake gets dressed up for "Suit and Tie" (Updated 2/13/14)
All the talk these days seems to be centered on Justin Timberlake's wardrobe. Or at least his "Suit and Tie."
When the video for Timberlake's latest single rolled out on January 10, 2014, he dished on his music making process in a video clip, saying, "I'm the one that sits and is obsessive about it before you even get to hear it."
And obsessive might be a good way to describe Timberlake, who has had his hands in other projects while working diligently to promote his third album "The 20/20 Experience." He was given a writing credit on track six on Beyonce's self-titled fifth studio album "Beyonce," which was given an iTunes release on December 13, 2013.
Then, in February, Timberlake joined in the online lovefest for Jay Leno's final episode of "The Tonight Show" when he tweeted, "Much love to the one and only @jayleno. Thank you for all thelaughs and great times! Also…Can I have a car? No? Ok, cool." And what did Timberlake do a few weeks later? Booked an appearance on one of the first episodes of "The Tonight Show Starting Jimmy Fallon."
Timberlake was also nominated for numerous awards at the Grammys this year (seven, to be exact), and is otherwise bringing "SexyBack" – and most of his other monster hits – to arenas across the country as part of his current tour. The 2 1/2-hour marathon shows feature all of the singing, dancing and showmanship Timberlake has become known for and continues through August 12, with the last date on the calendar penciled in for the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Justin Timberlake 20/20 Experience TourJustin Timberlake decided that he liked the first half of 2013 so much that he would do his best to duplicate it in the latter half of the year. Album release? Let's do that again. With a little push from Questlove, JT announced earlier this year that a second volume of his much-anticipated The 20/20 Experience would be released before the end of 2013. Concert tour that everyone's scrambling to see? Sure, let's make another one of those, too! After he and Jay-Z finish making the rounds, giving all of their fans an adequate dose of the Legends of Summer tour, Timberlake will support his new two-part album with The 20/20 Experience World Tour, coming to a city near you.
Fans of All Things Timberlake are certainly clamoring for second shots of the rest of the JT media blitz we've seen thus far in 2013. He hosted Saturday Night Live for a fifth time and co-hosted The Late Show with his buddy Jimmy Fallon for a whole week. Will Timberlake duplicate everything from the first album and achieve full 20/20 symmetry with these additional 22 concert dates? Or will he find new, unique things that merely aim to duplicate the buzz and satisfaction he gave to his loyal fans as a reward for their dedication during a six-year musical hiatus? He has certainly crafted a full, balanced entertaining experience for the entire industry this year, and it'll be interesting to see what the full vision looks like after both albums and both tours are on full display from the PNC Arena to the MGM Grand, for everyone to see.

Justin Timberlake New Album
Justin Timberlake announced that a second volume of The 20/20 Experience is due to arrive later in 2013 with another 10 songs to compliment the first volume, released earlier in the year. Here is a video for the second single from the first volume, "Mirrors," and fans are looking forward to doubling their love from JT in 2013.

Brooklyn Decker may be a former Sports Illustrated cover model, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have body insecurities, just like the rest of us. The blond bombshell opened up in the May/June issue of U.K.'s Women's Health magazine, revealing that she was nervous to work out with her "Just Go With It" co-star Jennifer Aniston.
At 44, Jen is certainly one ageless A-lister, and Brooklyn has definitely taken notice and revealed that Aniston would be her ideal body double. The 25-year-old actress dished, "She just has this glow about her. I was a bit awestruck!" Who could blame her?
Check out the vid to find out what else Brooklyn had to say about her bikini body crush.

In a town filled with lawyers and lobbyists, we know a thing or two about professional dress codes — and the struggles that come with them, like sprinting to meetings in pencil skirts and navigating sidewalk grates in skinny-heeled pumps. So, we're pretty taken with the story of Rochelle Behrens, a D.C. local who is slowly building an empire off of her exasperation with traditional work clothes. The short story? Behrens channeled her irritation with ill-fitting button-up shirts and launched her own line — simply called The Shirt — with the mission of creating a blouse that doesn't gape open between the buttons.
We were already fans of Behrens' pretty, feminine tops, and, after snagging a one-on-one chat, we dig her even more. This gal is a real go-getter — she's attracted famous fans (think Oprah and the cast of E! News), patented a few fashion inventions, and landed her product in stores from Connecticut to California — all by the time she turned 29. The former Washington insider (she was a White House intern and a lobbyist) gave us the inside scoop on her seemingly overnight success, what she misses about the Hill, and how you (yes, you!) can achieve your dreams — read on!

X-Men: First Class
Release Date :June 03, 2011
Studio :20th Century Fox
Director :Matthew Vaughn
Starring :James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, January Jones, Zoe Kravitz
"X-Men: First Class", following the classic Marvel mythology, charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga. Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men.

Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo says that as long as Fernando Alonso is at Ferrari, he doesn't think Sebastian Vettel will be joining them.
There were reports last summer that Vettel was set to join the Italiam team at some point in the future and that Ferrari were actively courting him to do so, perhaps as early as 2014.
While Di Montezemolo said in October that he did not want "two roosters in a henhouse", he has often spoken of his admiration for the German, saying as recently as December that Vettel "would be very good for us".
But when asked recently if he ever envisaged a time when Vettel and Alonso would be driving as a team at Ferrari, Di Montezemolo said: "No, I don't think so."
The Italian's curt response perhaps signals a change in attitude from Ferrari, and some reports suggest that could be down to Alonso's new contract, which was renegotiated towards the end of last season, securing his seat until the end of 2016.
One of Alonso's demands, sources close to Ferarri say, was that they not sign Vettel alongside him.
It could all be a moot point anyway, as Christian Horner has signed up with Red Bull to the end of 2017 and chief technical officer Adrian Newey, regarded as one of the main architects of Red Bull's success, also has a multi-year contract in place.
With a team like that behind him, three-time Champion Vettel might not be in any hurry to leave.
