Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (epoetin alfa, beta, theta and zeta, and darbepoetin alfa) are recommended as possible treatments for anaemia in people having chemotherapy to treat cancer.
What does this mean for me?
If you have anaemia and are having chemotherapy to treat cancer, and your doctor thinks that an erythropoiesis-stimulating agent is the right treatment, you should be able to have the treatment on the NHS.
Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents should be available on the NHS within 3 months of the guidance being issued.
Your responsibility
The recommendations in this guidance represent the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available. When exercising their judgement, health professionals are expected to take this guidance fully into account, alongside the individual needs, preferences and values of their patients. The application of the recommendations in this guidance is at the discretion of health professionals and their individual patients and do not override the responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or their carer or guardian.
Commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to provide the funding required to enable the guidance to be applied when individual health professionals and their patients wish to use it, in accordance with the NHS Constitution. They should do so in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, to advance equality of opportunity and to reduce health inequalities.

Deep Vein Thrombosis Health Center
Does Alcohol Affect Deep Vein Thrombosis?
In this article
Drinking alcohol can sometimes be a touchy issue between patients and doctors. But it's a topic you should talk about with yours when you have deep vein thrombosis.
Alcohol itself, in low to moderate amounts, isn't likely to raise your DVT risk. It may even protect healthy adults. It can act as a blood thinner. And a researcher in Norway found studies that show the more you drink, the lower your blood clot risk.
Recommended Related to DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis)
Obesity has more than doubled since 1980 worldwide. The number of deep-vein clots is rising right along with that. Doctors aren't yet sure exactly why, but people who have a body mass index of at least 30 are more likely than people of normal weight to get a blood clot deep in a vein, called deep vein thrombosis, or DVT.
Read the How Weight Affects DVT article > >
But moderation is key. Doctors don't recommend drinking alcohol to protect against DVT.
The relationship between alcohol and deep vein thrombosis may depend on what, and how much, you pour in your glass.
Beer and Wine
A 2013 study of almost 60,000 people found no difference in the risk of blood clots between wine or beer drinkers.
An antioxidant found in the skin of grapes, resveratrol, helps fight blood clots.
Another study found that, compared to non-drinkers, people who drank more than 3 ounces of liquor per week had a 53% higher risk of DVT.
It might be a question of habits. People who said they drink a lot of liquor also tended to binge drink, which counteracts any helpful effects you might get from alcohol in moderation.
Blood Thinner Drugs
Be careful about drinking if you're taking a blood thinner, such as warfarin (Coumadin).
Your liver breaks down alcohol and some medications. If it's busy working on the alcohol instead of your blood thinner, the level of the drug in your blood will go up and raise your bleeding risk.
When you drink, you might get tipsy and lose your balance, too. You don't want to fall and hurt yourself. That could be very dangerous, especially if you hit your head.
Having a drink or two every once in a while is probably fine when you're on blood thinners -- just be sure to talk to your doctor. If you're a regular drinker, you may need to get your medication levels checked more often.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/449,287, filed Jun. 8, 2006, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,406,735.
The present invention relates to an air-inflated mattress, and more particularly to a supporting structure of an air mattress.
The inflatable mattress, by means of its light weight, easy storage and portable features, not only is used as an outdoor apparatus, but also is accepted as indoor furniture. The conventional prior art inflatable mattress, shown in
But, there are shortcomings existing in the prior art inflatable mattress, as follows:
Since the above-mentioned disadvantages exist, the conventional prior art inflatable mattress cannot compare with an innerspring mattress.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an air-inflated mattress that has an improved top surface, which increases the contact area of the mattress with the human body, for increasing comfort in use.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an air-inflated mattress that not only keeps the evenness of the surface of the mattress, but also enhances the support intensity of the edges.
To achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present invention provides an air-inflated mattress, which is comprised of a top layer, a shroud band, a plurality of anchor separators and a bottom layer. Said shroud band connects the top and bottom layers together, to form an inflatable bladder. A middle layer is built below the top layer, by sealing some portions of the middle layer on the inside of the top layer to form a plurality of cross-sealed or half-sealed cavities. Some or all of said cavities are in fluid communication with the inflatable bladder, so as to form a plurality of small air-pockets on the surface of the mattress.
Said small air-pockets are arrayed on portions of the surface of the air mattress in contact with the human body.
Some of said cavities communicate with the inflatable bladder via air vents built into the middle layer.
The joint lines welding the top and middle layers together, create closed or half-closed patterns to form air pockets.
Anchor separators in cylindrical, or other shapes, have air holes on the joint portions of the anchor separator's trunk, and are connected with said middle layer and bottom layer separately at opposite ends of the trunk.
In another embodiment, the inflatable mattress also includes a middle shroud band and an inner shroud band, wherein said middle shroud band separately connects, by welded joints, to the outer shroud band and the inner shroud band to form alternative anchor points, to divide into several closed or half-closed cavities. Some of said cavities are in fluid communication with said inflatable bladder to form a plurality of air pockets on the outer shroud band of the air mattress.
The middle and inner shroud bands have riser vents communicating with said inflatable bladder.
Said middle shroud band is fixed on the outer shroud band by line welding to form closed or half-closed air pockets.
The present invention has the following advantages:
Referring now to
Said anchor separators 3 are generally cylindrical in shape, and connect at their top, to middle layer 2 and at their bottom, to bottom layer 7.
Referring to
Middle layer 2 and top layer 1 are welded 30 alternating with the joint portion 32 of middle layer 2 and anchor separators 3 (see
Referring specifically to
Middle shroud band 6 is welded onto inner shroud band 5 at 20 and onto outer shroud band 4 at 18, 18′ alternatively and respectively between said side sub-chambers B to work as a reinforcing rib. On the other hand, the joint spot 18, 18′ of middle shroud band 6 and outer shroud band 4 is line or point welded, to form a plurality of closed or half-closed circle, rhombus, or other pattern, small side air pockets B1 on shroud band 4 of the air mattress. Air pockets B1 communicate with side sub-chamber B, via riser vents 61 of middle shroud band 6, and via riser vents 91 of middle shroud 6. Side sub-chamber B communicates with main bladder A, via riser vents 51 of inner shroud band 5.
Middle layer 2 is welded 30 to top layer 1 to construct a plurality of closed or half-closed circle or rhombus or other pattern air pockets C, which are arrayed on the top surface of the air mattress which is in contact with the human body. Air pockets C are in communication with main bladder A via overlapped riser vents 21 of middle layer 2.
The present invention has the following advantages:
A second embodiment of the invention is described by reference to
A third embodiment of the invention is described by reference to
A fourth embodiment is shown in
Lower chamber 72, shown in
Air passes through vent holes 51 and 61 into sub-chambers B and B1 and into bladder A and through riser vents 21 into small air pockets C. This embodiment provides a high-rise mattress with superior support provided by lower chamber 72 having I-beam anchor separators 9 for added support. I-beam anchor separators 9 are welded to the top of layer 10 and to the bottom of layer 8 and are placed below and in between anchor separators 3, to keep the lower bladder D level and even. The double mattress is easier to sit on or lie down on because of its greater height from the floor and it also raises the user farther from a cold floor.
While I-beams are used as anchor separators in the lower chamber, as shown in this embodiment, any other types of anchor separators, as described previously hereinabove, may be utilized.
Variations of the placement and the number of riser vents or holes between the chambers described may be made at the desire of the manufacturer, which will change the stiffness and feel of the mattress. However, the use of additional shrouds and the additional layer in the construction as described, provides an air mattress which is firmer, more comfortable for the user and more like an innerspring mattress.
While the air-inflated mattress of the present invention has been described with reference to certain embodiments, the invention is not limited to the particular embodiments disclosed. Other variations, in design may occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. The scope of the invention is limited only by the claims appended hereto.

Personally I think we should do what Mexico does and have the oil companies be government run. Then we know exactly what the price of the fuel is since all Pemex stations are priced the same. In my book, there is no reason for a company to make profits in excess of $40,000,000,000.00 (40 billion). Especially when our economy is based so heavily on petroleum products. I live in L.A. which is the most spread out city in the world, with probably the worst mass transit system. I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that I would continue to drive if the prices went to $10/gallon-along with the majority of people-meaning we're car bound. I wish our government would step in and lower the prices back down. I know I'd be satisfied with a $.50/gallon reduction-and stay there for some time. Course too, the car companies could jump in also with cars that get better fuel mileage-read turbo-diesels. The Mini gets about 35 mpg with gas and close to 50 with Diesel (although the Diesel isn't going to be imported). The Smart For2 gets about 42mpg with gas and around 60 with Diesel. There is a Diesel Hybrid being designed that will get close to 80mpg-now that's what I call a good commuter car. Good Luck, TomC

I wish I could say it will work. But having been in the trucking & Bus industry all my life, I know it won't! The only way it will work is if the majority of the industry shuts down for just a day or 2 mayb 3 at the most. But that will never happen, the major companies will not join & most of the independents won't either.
The big companies won't for 2 reasons #1) they are affraid they will lose their big contracts with their shippers & receivers & #2) they think that if the others shut down they will be able to take over more contracts.
The independants won't shut down crying that they can't afford too because they got payments to make and families to feed. And I know they do, back when I was an O/O trucker I had the same worries. But I also knew that if enough of us banded together we would be heard. The banks don't want to REPO all those trucks they did that back in the late 90's and got stuck with tons of them! And many also see it as the oppertunity to get some loyality (yeah right) out of some shippers and receivers if they keep hauling when others shut down.
The company drivers won't join in because they are afraid they will be fired (again yeah right) as if there isn't already a major shortage of good quality drivers anyway!
We tried to do several shut downs in the late 90's and it was the same stories over and over! The last ime it worked successfully was back in the 70's when the teamsters did it and they had drivers scared not to shut down! Unfortunitly yes violance was involved back then, but the guberment & the public heard the demands and things changed for a little while. FWIW

. . . . Good Luck, TomC
Right, like the gubbermint can do anything more efficiently. Aren't the taxes already higher than the proffits? ? ?
The bigger the company, the bigger the proffits should be. Ain't that what made this country great?
Bill gates didn't get all his $$$$$ without healthy profits. So what's the difference between big oil & microsoft?
A good marketing campaign works wonders at keeping the customers in line with cash in hand . . .
Yes, I did like the lower prices. No, I didn't expect them to stay low, especially after 'they' got us addicted to using the product.
My in-laws bought their house based on walking distance to work so he wouldn't have to pay for gas. He never allowed himself to get addicted to cheap gas, so the higher price is more of an inconvenience than anything now.
How many are willing to buy a house & base their planned activities on walking distance? Most have bought into the marketing ploy that you don't have to plan ahead - you can just drive anywhere at anytime. It is hard to get away from that way of thinking.
To me, that is my biggest problem - not being able to plan ahead. When I try, it seems I'm swimming up stream.
There are several that I could car-pool with to work, but they don't want the inconvience because it would take longer to get home from work!
With that attitude, say hello to $10+ per gallon!

OK, do you guys really think gas will go up to 10$ a gallon?
I just saw a mass transit bus in our parking lot with only three people on it. I can't see us going that way.
I think the best idea is to increase fuel efficiency in our automobiles. Wouldn't be so bad to pay 10$ a gallon if you got 100 mpg.

Wouldn't you think that a company that made 40 billion profit would want to do more business?
Then why don't they?
Maybe someone or some thing is stopping them!!!!!!
GEE I wonder who would stop some company from getting more oil or energy out of the ground and stop them from building refineries to make gas and oil out of the stuff they got out of the ground.
Find what is stopping them and get rid of that and we get more gas and oil.
What a concept.

In my book, there is no reason for a company to make profits in excess of $40,000,000,000.00 (40 billion).
Wow... I don't know what business you are in, but that statement is very dangerous. Who should get to decide how much profit is "too much"? Should we allow someone to audit your company every year and decide if you made too much profit?
If you have an issue with that $$$ figure, your problem is with the people who paid that much money for petroleum products. All the company did was maximize the investment of its' shareholders and return the highest possible profit (which the market would support) for their risk. ...kinda like what I hope the companies in my 401(k) plan do for me. To say that the profit is "too much" is to advocate taking the stock earnings away from my grandmother, the pension plans, etc. that have invested in those companies. And frankly, my grandmother scrapes by on her retirement so I bet she would be just a little offended.
Do I have an issue with the price fixing by OPEC? Yup! Do I have an issue with Uncle Sam taking 40+% of every fuel $ I spend? Yup! But penalizing a company for legal maximizing shareholder value...no way.
BTW, look at their profit
as opposed to the net $$$. You might surprise yourself.

As far as oil company profits go, yes, the dollar amount is huge, but their profit margin is not all that great at only around 10%. Their total revenues are sky high which is why the profit is so high in dollars.
I would certainly love to pay less for fuel, but consider if oil companies made zero profit that the cost of fuel would decrease less than 10% since the fuel taxes don't change.

I really think that the majority of people need to understand that when a company is in business to make a profit then the general rule is "Price of the product is based on what the traffic (customer) will bear" not on the cost to produce and deliver the product.

I'm afraid that I don't buy the 10% margin story. SOMEBODY, is making a 100% higher margin this year than 4 years ago and I think it is fairly certain the cost of getting it out of the ground didn't double in four years. And the cost of refining it didn't double in four years.
It has been pointed out recently in other threads that investors have gotten heavily involved in the crude oil commodities market. Until that bubble bursts and they move on to something else, I think this trend will continue. Once they do move on, maybe then it will get back to a supply and demand market again.
Then again maybe not. For a long time, the industry was certain that there would be a threshold where consumers would cut back and so they worked hard to keep from crossing the $1/gallon at the pump threshold. Then they feared the $2/gal. threshold. When demand went up and prices neared $2 per gallon at the pump, OPEC would nervously increase output to avoid crossing that threshold. When retail prices crossed the $2 threshold and people didn't cut back, they gained confidence that nothing would lower volume. Now, OPEC stands solid that they won't increase output because they know they own us. Bot figuratively and literally.

This is a dangerous subject for this board. Once it turns political, you know that flame wars will start and people will have hurt feelings.
Knowledge is wonderful, so post all the hard facts that you have, but most personal opinions just tend to cloud the issue. Great conflicting opinions can be read in the books by Adam Smith and Karl Marx.

I think the only thing an individual can do is cut down on consumption. 60mph instead on 75, less iddling, etc. When comes time to trade, get a truck or car that uses less fuel. Maybe you don't really need all that power. Passing on the cost of fuel to the end-user is the only way. I know it is hard to do in such a competitive trucking industry, but that's all one can do. An economic slow down will also take the sails out of fuel demand. In our capitalist economic system, the only way to reduce prices is to reduce demand. The only way the government should be involved is by cutting back fuel taxes. Because they pig out on the sale of fuel as much as the oil companies do.

I believe this is the problem. How many company's have moved their operations South or to China to increase profits? They don't care about this country or anything else just themselves. It is the same with Exon-Mobile, GREED GREED. When CEO's gets MILLIONS of dollars in bonuses something is wrong and it is with us stockholders. We don't care as long as the dividends keep comming.

We bumped into a tv network called LinkTv on Directv. They explain a lot about what is happening to our country and economy. There was a recent program on corporations. As they say, corporations are suppose to make money, no matter what, just like a shark eats anything they can swallow. That is what they were invented to do. It's a real eye opening tv station and if you don't get the station, they have a website, LinkTv.net. Be warned though, they seem to be mostly democrats. We just found it very interesting, not taking sides on anything.

Walter Trout
The Observatory taps into its blues vein this week with the arrival of Walter Trout—who, in February, got a double-page spread in Guitarist Magazine's 100 Guitar Heroes edition. With his newest album, Luther's Blues, released in June, Trout takes his rockstar handling of that ol' six-string on an international tour (much to the joy of his fan club members across 14 countries). If Trout was born to do one thing, it's absolutely wail on a guitar. Fans of rock, blues, jazz, and great music in general, must get to the Observatory this Friday night—and pray to the guitar gods he does a cover of "Dust my Broom.

Scouting sheets are one of the best things about pro basketball. Scouts know the game, they place a lot of faith in their own knowledge, and they love putting their thoughts in blunt, easily digestible form. (One of my favorite scouting sheet notes of all time, courtesy of Jack McCallum's Seven Seconds or Less, summed up Eddie House's game thusly: "Won't shoot, unless he has the ball in his hands.) ESPN Los Angeles' Brian and Andrew Kamenetzky have obtained a copy of a typical scouting sheet from Dave Miller, and it's full of lots of fun, useful tidbits about the Suns' personnel. Here are a few of my favorites:
Mike Krzyzewski: Team USA having too much fun, needs to tone it down
Mike Krzyzewski hates fun (even more than he admits).
So, the coach wasn't thrilled after Team USA's exhibition win over China, which included DeMar DeRozan nearly 360-degree dunking on someone.
Marc J. Spears of ESPN:
I want to see Team USA make highlight plays. Dunk from the free-throw line. Shoot from halfcourt. Throw behind-the-back passes. Show up weaker competition.
So, it's hard for me to get behind Coach K's criticism.
But I also want to see the Americans win gold medals in the Olympics, and I'll blame Krzyzewski if they're not adequately focused.
Fair? Not one bit.
Doesn't change what I want, though.
Report: Kevin Durant told Russell Westbrook he'd re-sign with the Thunder
Kevin Durant said he had to distance himself from Russell Westbrook entering free agency. Yet, Durant listened to the Warriors recruiting him all season and had clearly been interested in Golden State for months.
The writing was on the wall.
Except, a few days before taking meetings in the Hamptons (which led to signing with the Warriors), Durant dined with Westbrook.
Three weeks ago, Kevin Durant's sitting there at dinner, telling him "Hey, I'm coming back, man. Don't worry about it." And now, Russell Westbrook has been kind of thrown into this in having to decide his future a summer earlier than expected.
Kevin Durant, more so than even that, was telling people, "Hey, yeah, I mean I'm coming back." Like I said in there, a week before Kevin Durant sat down in the Hamptons, he was in Oklahoma City ready to make an offer on a multi-million-dollar house. So, the guy was pretty serious about coming back, and then things turned rather quickly for him to leave. And there's no doubt that the organization felt a little bit burned by this.
Maybe Durant said that. Maybe he meant it in the moment. Maybe he was just trying to appease someone he didn't want to let down. Maybe he was unclear. Maybe Westbrook read too much into a more clear statement.
There's a lot of room for imperfect recollection/interpretation. We're dealing with human beings.
Likewise on the house. Who says Durant was "ready" to make an offer? That's an awfully difficult assessment to make outside his head. Just as the Celtics had a list of players Durant wanted them to add, it seems he was preparing for all contingencies. It's hard to nail down rather he was house hunting because he was certain he wanted to stay in Oklahoma City or whether he just wanted a new place if he stayed in Oklahoma City.
So much of what we know about Durant's process for picking the Warriors suggests a rational decision. He considered them for months, met with multiple teams, conferred with his inner circle then made a choice.
If Durant told Westbrook or anyone else he'd re-sign with the Thunder, that obviously changes the equation. But I'm left wondering:
How many people in Oklahoma City heard what they wanted to hear rather than what Durant actually said?
How many people are incentivized to paint Durant as impulsive, because the alternative — Durant thoughtfully deciding the Thunder weren't his best option — indicates deeper flaws in the franchise?
Watch Carmelo Anthony put up 16 points in third quarter on China
Kyrie Irving, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, and DeMarcus Cousins are pretty much locked in as four of the Team USA starters come the Olympics. But who gets that fifth slot, the one for a wing player? Paul George? Jimmy Butler?
Don't be shocked if Carmelo Anthony gets that slot.
He helped make his case Tuesday, scoring 16 in the third quarter alone on China in an easy Team USA victory in a pre-Olympics exhibition. Mike Krzyzewski likes to reward veterans, and 'Melo is one of the old guy leaders of this team who has collected two gold medals already. Don't be surprised if 'Melo is a starter in Rio (Draymond Green started Tuesday, but only because the game was at Oracle Arena and Coach K likes to give guys a bigger role in front of the local crowds where they play).
DeMar DeRozan just missed spectacular in-game 360 poster dunk (VIDEO)
Can a missed dunk attempt be brilliant?
DeMar DeRozan says yes.
The Toronto Raptors guard almost pulled off an in-game 360-dunk over a defender during the USA's latest rout of China in an Olympics tune-up game. How impressive was the dunk? Ask LeBron James.

Next, a brutally honest look about what it means to try to turn a passion for the arts into a career...in this case acting. This book should be given to every young aspiring actor to see what it REALLY means to try to make a career in it.
Finally, as Robin learns to make a career out of music, what it REALLY means to be a professional performing artist. It breaks open imagined story book tales of glamour, and shows the nuts and bolts of what it's about.
Throughout she shares her experiences and what she learns with lots of humor (I literally LOLed...a lot!), with compassion, and incredible intimacy. She really lays bare her soul. If you're familiar with her music or have been to her concerts you will know what I mean. And if you're not, you're in for a treat as you discover this beautiful person who magnanimously shares her window on life with us...after all, isn't that what being an artist is about?
The book begins with a recurring childhood dream where Robin discovers secret rooms inside her piano and is able to meet regularly with a grandfather she had never met and to hear him play. From those magical moments, we travel through the life of a budding artist from her hyperactive childhood thinking everyone must have an orchestra playing in their heads like she did to the poised and polished concert artist she is now. Quite a few chapters recount the years in New York City when Robin played in upscale piano rooms during much of the day and acted in theater productions by night. One of the founding members of the Atlantic Theater Company, she was able to juggle her pianist and acting selves for an impressive period of time, and many of those stories are enlightening, laugh-out-loud funny, and tear-jerking - some all at the same time! Robin also tells her very human stories of love lost, true love found, and the miracle of her daughter, Valerie.Read more ›
More than an exciting journey, I found nuggets of wisdom which Robin relayed from her mentors and sometimes from her own experience. "Already there" has become my new mantra. And I need to have Robin's courage to allow my soul to be "naked on the bench".
Having been privileged to accompany Robin on her piano pilgrimage, I can now listen to and play her music with fresh insight.

Africa's Second Independence
—NPR's Jennifer Ludden examines how the political landscape in Central Africa is changing, as the result of regional cooperation in the overthrow this year of the late Zairian dictator, Mobutu Sese Seko. Mobutu's successor, Laurent Kabilia, received support from a new generation of African leaders, such as Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and Rwandan Vice President Paul Kagame. The changes seem to mark the end of the post-colonial era, during which authoritarian rulers looted their countries with little interference from their European and American supporters.

I think Yahoo has been doing this new forum rollout alphabetically and that there are still forums left that are on the old system. At least a random stock I chose that starts with "Z" today was still on the old system!
Can anyone think of/find a microcap company forum that has traditionally had little to no activity for months, and that hasn't been switched over to the new buggy forum? Maybe we could hang out there, even make it the central place for other key mREITS, assuming folks can post topics that start with an identifying ticker of the mREIT they are posting about.
If we were really lucky and we picked an alphabet letter that's the last in line to get "upgraded"... Maybe we can stick it out there and the old forum style stays long enough until Yahoo gets the important issues w/ the new format fixed, or alternatively reverts everything back to the old format.
I think we are stuck..... I just keep complaining!
Just deal with it! I am. You will be assimilated.

Bodega BAMZ ft. Curt@!n$ - Hot Like 95
Posted 4 years ago
Tags: Bodega BAMZ , Downloads
Apollo Brown
None (Promo Single)
Just how hot is Bodega BAMZ' Booth debut? To quote rap legend Nas on Thief's Theme, it's "...Hot Like 95 Fahrenheit on a summer night." This new single finds producer Apollo Brown (recently featured as one-half of duo Daily Bread) serving up a gritty, sampled beat to back the Spanish Harlem representer's hard-hitting street lyricism, as well as that of Big Apple spitter Curt@!n$. This joint isn't currently attached to a larger project, but fans can keep it locked to the Booth for all the latest.

But why are we going back to mechanical keyboards, which were popular in the early days of computing and then fell out of style? Should you consider investing a mechanical keyboard? They are typically more expensive than what we might consider a normal, or common keyboard. In this article, Benchmark Reviews takes a look at one of Cooler Master's CHERRY MX Brown Switch mechanical keyboards, the CM Storm MECH.
