Macedonia News 12/07/07
Women/s Celebration Meeting was Tuesday, November 27. It was so good. The Family Life Center was just full of beautiful tables.
I just was not able to do a table this year. I sat at Valerie Carters table which was so unique with large candles of varied height with greenery, little Santas, Christmas Balls, and Pine Cones around the base.
Ginger Harrell and Angela Shirleys tables were both close by, but they ate at Valeries table because theirs were full.
Gingers table was extraordinary with covers and bows on back of chairs and every corner of the table to compliment the beautiful centerpiece.
Angela had a table for little girls and it was full! Bright lipstick colors dominated her table.
All the tables were so pretty, I am sure, but due to limited walking ability, I was unable to go around the room.
Regina Russell did welcome announcements and the Call to Worship.
There was some beautiful door prizes. I won the sweetest, porcelain Nativity Scene.
Lou McQuary blessed our meal which was catered by Kathy Knighton and served by the men and boys of the church (they even picked up the empty dishes.) The meal was delicious!
Then we enjoyed singing by Still Blessed, a group composed of Sherry Wilson, Pam Gardner and David Halloway. They were very good.
Our speaker was Kay Faulkenberry with Pathway Ministries. She certainly held your attention.
Joyce Peters said our closing prayer.
By the way, if anyone found a watch that night, Ruby Jones lost one. It ahs much sentimental value as Jack gave it to her years ago. Call Ruby or drop it off at the church.
Oh, and Hailey Rhea Mattox left a little red purse in the church when she dressed for her wedding in October. She would like to have it back as it held her favorite make-up and she just liked that purse.
Mary Ellen Bowling went through surgery fine. She is still in the hospital to have therapy.
Wesley Harrell is sick, James Shirley, Stephen, Ginger, and Julie played Musical Chairs staying with him Sunday. Stephen, Ginger, and Julie needed to come to Youth Choir practice, so James stayed. Shirley was at Adult Choir practice.
Sonny Baird had eye surgery recently at the VA in Memphis.
Tom Freiday is sick. Carolyn is a little better. I think they just swap out.
Jean Marette is feeling much better. She sent the Sunday School Class work that she would see us soon.
Elizabeth Hales niece, Amanda Ross Butler, learned her headaches were caused by damage from previous surgery.
Jim Black has started chemotherapy again. He looks and acts like he feels pretty good. We went down Friday night. Beverly was there so we got to visit her too.
Bubba Cobb had gall bladder surgery. He was doing fine.
Mr. Robertson and Brother Jerry East came by one day last week. Mr. Robertson looks good. The rest of the family was fine too.
Melissa Williams did such a good job singing the special music Sunday.
Brother Louies message The Question of Faith was from Luke 18:8. The sermon answered the question.
Brandi Coopers shower Sunday was very good. From clothes, toys, diapers to stroller, she got it all.
Oh, who made the chicken salad on the little crackers! The baby carrots were good too, but the crackers were delicious. All of it that I tasted was good.
Sunday night after Youth Choir sang a very good offering of special music, Brother Louis spoke shortly. Then we had the Lords Supper.
Welcome to Macedonia to our new members! John and Diana Huston, Jerry, Brenda, and Brittany McGregor all joined our church recently.
Sunday, December 9, time of church will be as usual.
Adult Choir practice Sunday is at 5:00 P.M. and &;00 P.M. The Business meeting will be at 7:00 P.M.
On December 8 the Adult Mens Sunday School Class will treat themselves and the preacher and their wives to supper at Abbeville. The van leaves at 4:00 P.M.
On December 10. the H.O.P.E. meeting will be held at Harold and Patsy Grishams home at 7:00 P.M.
On December 13, Adult III Womens Sunday School Class will go for lunch at Taylors. The van will run.
On December 16 at night the Adult Choir under the direction of Terry Foley will be singing the Cantata Emmanuel Celebrating Heavens Child.
The Childrens Cantata will be December 23 in the evening under the direction of Carol Peters.
Adriana Shirley got sick at school one day last week and came here. She is better, mostly coughing. I enjoyed her visit.

Brand: Zebag. Designed in Paris, France. Designers Antoine Gillain and Jean-Michel Ginèbre have created a new wine
concept store in Paris called 'Nulle Part Ailleurs', which offers a wide range of unique services, including an exclusive, subscription based wine delivery service. With a burning desire to offer to their subscribers not just an original service but an original form of packaging too, they began re-creating the classic plastic milk bottle carrying cases of the Fifties into something creatively adapted for wine in the
Twenty First Century! And so was born the idea of a bag with multi-positions for
bottles that could morph from an easy to carry & hang wine bottle bag to a practical spread out wine rack...in the shape of an hexagon for the initial 6 positions version.

So glad to have found this place! Excellent sandwiches, scones, and the best tea ever. Service is superb! A must stop for high tea. Quaint little gift shop, nursery, and florist for shopping.

we stopped into EBT's for Quinche, scones and appetizers, and were we ever wide eyed with happy tastebuds! They have a relatively short appetizer list but, my goodness, everything we tried was knock-out-of-the-park outstanding. My husband and I shared and left narry a Quinche.

cute shop, has a lot of decorations and unique gifts. The Tea Room is small, not that friendly of service, and the tomato basil soup was way too salty. Not wowed by the food at all, but loved browsing the store!
Kept driving past this place on our way from Georgetown out to the east end and my British folks never failed to notice the "Tea Room" sign. We finally stopped and had a super lunch and tea. Only 4-6 tables in the back, but it's a lovely room. Our server was very sweet and our sandwiches delicious. Tea was served...
We enjoyed afternoon tea here - just tea and a scone with jam and clotted cream. Being from the UK but living in the USA - it was a nice reminder of home.
One of the best kept secrets on Grand Cayman. This tiny tea room (only 4 tables) is tucked in the back of a garden/gift shop.

This past weekend my family and I went here. We enjoyed the exterior opportunities that the place offered, from the birds to the plants. It was truly a sight to behold.

This small garden center has a small tea room tucked into the back of the building. While the menu isn't extensive, the sandwiches are different and delicious.
It was a nice and relaxing environment to enjoy a quiet lunch.

Finally, I've managed to catch up with the roving band of trucks serving up all sorts of delicious things around the city. And I do mean around the city– rarely do they venture outside the confines of Clifton, Over-the-Rhine or the Central Business District. I can't tell you how many times I've discovered Cafe de Wheels outside of Mica 12/v… right after I've eaten. Or they've ran out of food. Or, they're just too far away. Yesterday, I saw this tweet from @SenorRoys:
Kenwood? That's close to me. Do I have a lunch meeting? Nope! So I got in the car and drove down to Kenwood to catch up with the Taco Patrol. The thing that's tricky about these trucks is they essentially have to be invited someplace, or else they get kicked out, which can make them a bit hard to find. First they were in Barnes and Noble's parking lot, then they moved to the corner of Kenwood and Montgomery, then finally– when I'd nearly given up– they were in a parking lot across from St. Vivian's.
I've read some other reviews of this place, and they've ranged from adoring to disappointed. I tried not to get too excited– fearing the worst– but came out with what I would consider a satisfactory lunch experience, and much improved from either Gavin's or Liz's experiences.
The menu is essentially a Chipotle on wheels. They have some interesting toppings for your tacos or burritos– pickled onions, cotija and chihuahua cheese come to mind– but if you've had Chipotle, this is very similar, but local and on wheels. I am not sure if they do any local or organic sourcing.
The process: you start on one end of the cart, and choose your poison: burrito, tacos, salad, and a couple of other choices. I chose the Lunch Special– 3 tacos (which I had no intention of finishing, but wanted to try all three meats), chips, salsa and a drink for $7.95. Initially, they asked if I wanted beans and rice, which I assumed to be on the side. When they started filling the tortillas with it, I stopped them and said that I assumed it would be on the side. They happily took out the rice. I chose corn tortillas, and one each of the meats: steak, chicken, and al pastor– pork cooked in a pineapple sauce. When you pay, you get to choose the toppings– for mine, I chose cotija cheese (a crumbly, salty Mexican cheese, not unlike feta), cilantro and some pickled red onions. I took the chips and salsa too– tomatillo salsa was my choice. For $8, this was a veritable ton of food– there was no way I could finish it, but I could, at least, take a few bites in the interest of the readers, right? Sure.
My favorite, by a landslide, was the al pastor taco. It was nicely seasoned, spicy and a little sweet, with some nice chunks of pineapple along with the pork. It was topped with a spicy-sweet red sauce. It combined well with my toppings of cotija, cilantro and red onion. Authentic? Maybe not. Delicious? Absolutely. I can't say the same of the steak tacos, which I found dry and somewhat flavorless. The chicken came out in the middle– it was moist, almost dripping, but not as well seasoned as I'd liked. In the future, I'll stick with the al pastor tacos and skip the rest.
You can get their (no-very-often-updated) schedule on their website, or follow them on Twitter to find their latest location.
Sounds like fun. Hunt for your lunch like caveman days. At least you didn't have to kill it too!
How do you rate it to La Mexicana in Newport (Monmouth St)?
.-= Christina Baita´s last blog ..Too Tired Sunday =-.
Figured as much. It's hard to beat a place where the cook barely speaks English! I have been eating one pork, one mushroom and one vegetarian (or parts there of if I don't want to be sick). So yummy!
.-= Christina Baita´s last blog ..Too Tired Sunday =-.
I'm wondering why you say things like: '(which I had no intention of finishing, but wanted to try all three meats)' & 'there was no way I could finish it, but I could, at least, take a few bites in the interest of the readers, right?' You do this in quite a few of your posting.
It seems like you are apologizing for having an appetite.
I'm more bothered by how a review can read so negatively throughout, yet in the end, you can somehow conclude you had an okay lunch. What a jolt for the reader!
Rarely do they come out of the city. I have to find them. They don't update their schedule enough. They tried to put rice on my taco. Waa waa waa.
With all that moaning maybe you need to at least bold the part where you say it was delicious. So easy to miss that.
I'll have to go back again and give it another try. I agree that (United States of) Americanized doesn't have to be a bad thing. When they started putting rice and beans in mine, I asked about that and they said it was traditional to do that in Mexico. I wasn't in the mood to discuss it, so just went with the flow. Next time I'll definitely ask for them on the side. Glad to hear your meat was good – I bet it'll be a better experience for me next time…
.-= Gavin DeVore Leonard´s last blog ..Dinner Out @ Riverside Korean =-.
Cincinnati is always late to the party, "insert overused Mark Twain quote here". LA has the coolest trucks, something like 1400 of them I heard, asian influence is big, selfabsorbent twitter was made for taco trucks, this one is Korean/Mex.
When I read this
last year I was drooling thinking about bringing one to town.
Take a look at these photos and drool more
I keep thinking I'll try Sr Roy's but I end up at Cafe de Wheels. There burgers and sweet potato fries are tops… always delicious…
Oh my god. I just had my lunch break and you made me hungry again. I am so going against the title of my blog here. But you did say your tacos had pineapples right?
.-= Healthy Eating Recipe´s last blog ..Ceasar Salad: A Healthier Take On A Classic Recipe =-.
Okay, now I am hungry sitting in a hotel room in San Antonio. I could of course go downstairs to the restaurant but have been told by more than one flight attendant that the food is bad. Suppose that's just their opinion but do I chance eating at an overpriced hotel restaurant that may or may not be good? I was going to go to bed soon (4am wake up call) but now all I can think about is pork tacos and hamburgers! Thanks alot! 😉 Other food choices are between me and a really big highway.
Can't wait to take my Mom to Cafe de Wheels (she's not a big "Mexican" food person) but we always love a good burger! mmmm
.-= Christina Baita´s last blog ..Airline Drink Choice =-.
I was lucky enough to catch up with Senor Roys on Tuesday. I had not read your review yet and did not notice that they put the rice and beans on my tacos. It did take away from the flavor and I think it added a need for some salt. I went with crema, cilantro and the pickled jalapenos and carrots (which I eat by the can full).
I agree the pork was best. I ordered queso and chips and apparently was not my day for paying attention, or I would have asked them to put the queso on the side instead of on top of the chips.
I was very pleased with their friendliness. I really enjoyed the food, even if I was sitting on upper 12th street and ended up dripping salsa all over my pants (which forced me to go home and change).
LOL, finding said trucks seems to be an issue, would love to try Senor Roy's but a visit to their web reveals a little problem, you can't eat food you cant find. Looks like the notorious Sales Prevention Committee was in charge of the web site design. I don't do the self absorbent Twitter (I have enough fricking distractions) they kind of need to let you know where they are if your going to BUY anything.
Humm Twitter feed on their site is working today but they are in Clifton so no taco today!
I need to hunt these trucks down!
Just (re)discovered your site, Julie, when I was searching for Tacos al Pastor, one of my favorite foods. I discovered it last year on a family trip to Playa del Carmen, Mexico, at a wonderful place called "Aca Los Tacos". If you are ever there, I *highly* recommend you give that place a try. We were in Playa for a week and it was the best place we ate by far. The next time I am in Cincinnati, I am going to have to hunt down Senor Roy's! Thanks! –Eric

Romanticism and Animal Rights by David Perkins
Book DescriptionIn England in the second half of the eighteenth century an unprecedented amount of writing urged kindness to animals. This theme was carried in many genres, from sermons to encyclopedias, from scientific works to literature for children, and in the poetry of Cowper, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Clare and others. Romanticism and Animal Rights discusses the arguments writers used, and the particular meanings of these arguments in a social and economic context so different from the present. After introductory chapters, the material is divided according to specific practices that particularly influenced feeling or aroused protest: pet keeping, hunting, baiting, working animals, eating them, and the various harms inflicted on wild birds. The book shows how extensively English Romantic writing took up issues of what we now call animal rights. In this respect it joins the growing number of studies that seek precedents or affinities in English Romanticism for our own ecological concerns.

Israeli Military Torturing Palestinian Children ~viewer discretion~
- published: 15 Feb 2014
- views: 340851
The Israeli military is facing a backlash at home and abroad for its treatment of children in the West Bank, occupied territory. Coming up, a joint investigation by Four Corners and an Australian newspaper reveals evidence that shows the army is targeting Palestinian boys for arrest and detention. Reporter John Lyons travels to the West Bank to hear the story of children who claim they have been taken into custody, ruthlessly questioned and then allegedly forced to sign confessions before being taken to court for sentencing. He meets Australian lawyer Gerard Horton, who\'s trying to help the boys who are arrested, and talks to senior Israeli officials to examine what\'s driving the army\'s strategy. http://rt.com/news/israel-children-torture-palestine-044/ http://rabbibrant.com/2014/01/03/ngo-report-palestinian-children-kept-in-outdoor-cages/...

Night Court: Kansas wins 10th straight Big 12 title
Kansas has the likely No. 1 pick in June's NBA Draft. Kansas has the likely No. 2 pick in June's NBA Draft.
But down the stretch on Monday night, neither of those players got the ball.
Naadir Tharpe hit two jumpers in the final two minutes to help the Jayhawks pull away from Oklahoma down the stretch for an 83-75 win. Tharpe, the much-maligned point guard, scored 12 of Kansas' final 18 points as the Jayhawks clinched a 10th straight Big 12 championship.
He finished with 19 points, five assists and just one turnover to lead the way for Kansas, which saw all five starters hit double figures. Freshman Wayne Selden went for 15 points, as did star Andrew Wiggins. Joel Embiid chipped in with 12 points, 13 rebounds, three assists and three blocks.
Oklahoma hung tough throughout the game, matching Kansas in the paint and in transition, but couldn't pull it out late. Cameron Clark proved to be a matchup problem at times, scoring 18 points. Buddy Hield knocked down three 3-pointers en route to 16 points.
Kansas' balance was on full display Monday night. Wiggins couldn't find his shot for most of the game, but the Jayhawks were able to overcome that because of the other options. Selden is capable of getting his own shot and knocking down jumpers from the perimeter; Perry Ellis a difficult matchup for most teams; Embiid is one of the best centers in the country; and then there's Tharpe.
Most people would say Tharpe being consistent is the biggest worry heading into the NCAA tournament, but he's been much improved this season. Before Monday, Tharpe had shot just 2-for-19 in his last three games, but he bounced back in a big way. And this isn't the first time he's come up big in a tight spot this season. He had 22 points at Baylor earlier this year, also going for 12 assists against Iowa State. Tharpe also went for back-to-back 20-point performances against Iowa State and Oklahoma State at the start of conference.
And he's the biggest personnel "concern" for Kansas in March. That's scary.
By the way, it's absolutely remarkable what Bill Self has done the past decade in Lawrence. Ten straight Big 12 titles is insane. As Jeff Eisenberg of Yahoo! Sports pointed out on Twitter, no other program in the country has a current streak longer than three. And it's not like the conference has been mediocre – at least one other Big 12 team has received a four-seed in the NCAA tournament in each season. There have been 14 top-four seeds given to Big 12 teams besides Kansas during the past 10 seasons. The Jayhawks have had stiff competition.
Yet Self continues to churn out conference championships. And it's going to be impossible to pick against the Jayhawks until they lose one. Whenever that happens.
Other results of note:
-- Southern clinched at least a share of the SWAC regular-season championship by beating second-place Alabama State by 23 on the road. Unfortunately for the Jaguars, they are currently banned from postseason play pending an NCAA investigation into the school's APR.
-- Syracuse bounced back from its two-game losing streak with a two-point win at Maryland. The game wasn't decided until Seth Allen's running 3 at the buzzer bounced off the rim. That's now five games in a row for the Orange that have been within one possession with 15 or fewer seconds remaining.
-- Oklahoma State has won two straight games since Marcus Smart returned from suspension. The Cowboys rolled past TCU, 76-54, as Smart finished with 17 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and five steals.

Curtain Theatre
Curtain Theatre circa 1600 (cylindrical building in the background). Some authorities believe this to be a depiction of The Theatre, the other Elizabethan theatre in Shoreditch Further to the East in this illustration is a building with a flag on it which is now thought to be the curtain.
|18 Hewett Street
|Years active
The Curtain Theatre was an Elizabethan playhouse located in Hewett Street, Shoreditch (part of the modern London Borough of Hackney), just outside the City of London. It opened in 1577, and continued staging plays until 1624.[1]
The Curtain was built some 200 yards south of London's first playhouse, The Theatre, which had opened a year before, in 1576. It was called the "Curtain" because it was located near a plot of land called Curtain Close, not because of the sort of front curtain associated with modern theatres, but of its proximity of the City walls, curtain or curtain wall referring to the part of city walls between two bastions.[2] Its remains were rediscovered in archaeological excavation in 2012. The most signficant find was that the Curtain was rectangular not round. They found a 14m stage, and evidence of a tunnel under the stage and galleries at the first floor level. Finds included a ceramic bird whistle; ceramic money boxes for collecting entry fees; beads possibility decorating stage custumes and a small statue of Bacchus.
The Curtain Theatre was built in 1577 in Shoreditch, and was London's second playhouse. Little is known of the companies that performed there, or of the plays they performed. The first clear mention of the Curtain is in 1584, when the City of London petitioned the parish of Shoreditch to shut down their playhouses.[3]:63 The proprietor appears to have been Henry Lanman, described as a "gentleman": in 1585, Lanman made an agreement with the proprietor of the Theatre, James Burbage, to use the Curtain as a supplementary house, or "easer," to the more prestigious older playhouse. From 1597 to 1599, it became the premier venue of Shakespeare's Company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men, who had been forced to leave their former playing space at The Theatre after the latter closed in 1596. It was the venue of several of Shakespeare's plays, including Romeo and Juliet (which gained "Curtain plaudits") and Henry V. In this latter play the somewhat undistinguished Curtain gains immortal fame by being described by Shakespeare as "this wooden O". The Lord Chamberlain's Men also performed Ben Jonson's Every Man in His Humour here in 1598, with Shakespeare in the cast.[4] Later that same year Jonson gained a certain notoriety by killing actor Gabriel Spencer in a duel in nearby Hoxton Fields.
The Lord Chamberlain's Men departed the Curtain when the Globe Theatre, which they built to replace the Theatre, was ready for use in 1599.[5] For seven years Henry Lanman (owner of the Curtain) had an agreement with James Burbage (owner of the Theatre) that all profit would be shared between them. This deal is how many believe Lanman was able to afford to open the Curtain, the rest is all very unclear. J. Leeds Barroll focuses in Shakespeare studies: An annual gathering of Research, Criticism and Reviews on the fact that Henry Lanman had offered the Curtain as an easer to James Burbage, proprietor of the Theatre. Thereby, he assumes that Lanman's business, the Curtain, must have been doing as well as Burbage's business, the Theatre, since both, Lanman and Burbage, had agreed on a pooling arrangement for seven years in 1585, to pool profits. As far as is known, Lanman ran the Curtain as a private concern for the first phase of its existence; He died in 1606[6] and it is assumed by Edmund Chambers that the theatre had been re-arranged into a shareholder's enterprise before his death at some point. Thomas Pope, one of the Lord Chamberlain's Men, owned a share in the Curtain and left it to his heirs in his last will and testament in 1603. King's Men member John Underwood did the same in 1624.[3]:63[7] The fact that both of these shareholders belonged to Shakespeare's company may indicate that the re-organization of the Curtain occurred when the Lord Chamberlain's Men were acting there. Otherwise, it would be very unwise of Burbage to pool profits if he did better in the first place. Thus, the suggestion is given that both proprietors were doing equal business. Burbage's father Richard had shares in the theatre at the time of his death.[8]:144
The London theatres, including the Curtain, were closed for much of the period from September 1592 to April 1594 due to the bubonic plague according to Alchin in his complete works on Shakespeare.[citation needed] In 1597, people wrote to the local magistrates' court demanding that no plays take place at the Curtain or the Theatre that year.[8]:37 The Curtain was named in John Stow's Survey of London in 1598, but was not listed in the 1603 edition.[9] In 1600, the Privy Council tried unsuccessfully to shut down the Curtain theatre,[3] and in 1603, the Curtain became the playhouse of Queen Anne's Men (formerly known as Worcester's Men, and formerly at the Rose Theatre, where they'd played Heywood's A Woman Kill'd With Kindness in February of that year).[3]:64 In 1607, The Travels of the Three English Brothers, by Rowley, Day, and Wilkins, was performed at the Curtain.
The Curtain was in use from 1577 until at least 1624, after which its ultimate fate is obscure as there is no record of it after 1627. The reasons for its closure are not known.
Site and rediscovery[edit]
The Curtain was believed to have been built near The Theatre, but the exact location was for many years unknown.[10][11] However, a commemorative plaque was erected at 18 Hewett Street.[3]:62[12]
In 2012, archaeologists from MOLA announced that they had discovered the remains of the theatre during trial excavations.[13][14] In 2013 plans were submitted to develop the site with a 40-storey tower of 400 apartments plus Shakespeare museum, 250-seat outdoor auditorium and park, with the archaeological remains visible in a glass enclosure.[15][16] Completion of the project is expected in 2019.
In May 2016, excavators announced that the theatre was not round, but rectangular, fitting into the space between existing structures along the city wall. The galleries were straight.[17]

A reconstruction of the Curtain Theatre features in the 1998 film Shakespeare in Love.[18]

Weighted and Structured Sparse Total Least-Squares for Perturbed Compressive Sampling
Solving linear regression problems based on the Total Least-Squares (TLS) criterion has well-documented merits in various applications, where perturbations appear both in the data vector as well as in the regression matrix. Weighted and structured generalizations of the TLS approach are further motivated in several signal processing and system identification related problems. On the other hand, modern compressive sampling and variable selection algorithms account for perturbations of the data vector, but not those affecting the regression matrix. The paper addresses also the latter by introducing a weighted and Structured sparse (S-) TLS formulation to exploit a priori knowledge on both types of perturbations, and on the sparsity of the unknown vector.

One of the greatest needs in today's construction industry is for qualified workers. Across all sectors of the business from engineers to foremen and craft workers, the workforce is aging and there seem to be few young workers ready to take their place. During a roundtable at the ASCC Construction Executive Leadership Conference in July, the discussion focused on changing the perception of construction for young people to, as AGC states on its web page, "show them the exciting world of construction before we are discarded as a career choice."
The Construction Users Roundtable is taking this seriously by hosting an event on September 10 to explore ways to find and develop new leaders. We need more success stories, like those we reviewed in our America's Concrete Contractors, to show that construction is both exciting and financially rewarding.
What are you doing to develop new talent for our industry?

"You have cancer." This diagnosis is a real shock for the patient and associated family and friends and occurs to someone in the U.S. most likely every minute. Even though cancer research is on-going and has made great strides, the diagnosis of cancer is and will stay an unwelcome surprise and it can happen to anyone.
Three standard methods of treatment for cancer are surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Ultimately, the patient makes the treatment decisions based on the doctor's recommendations, possible second opinions and other information gathered from qualified professionals.
Side effects of usual cancer therapies
Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses of drugs to eliminate cancer cells. Unlike surgery, chemotherapy affects the entire body, not just a specific part. It works by targeting rapidly multiplying cancer cells. Unfortunately, other types of cells in our bodies also multiply at high rates, like hair follicle cells and the cells that line our stomachs. This is why chemo can cause side effects like hair loss and an upset stomach.
Radiation Therapy: Radiation therapy uses certain types of energy to shrink tumors or eliminate cancer cells. It works by damaging a cancer cell's DNA, making it unable to multiply. Cancer cells are highly sensitive to radiation and typically die when treated. Nearby healthy cells can be damaged as well, but are resilient and are more able to fully recover. Both chemotherapy and radiation therapy also affect the immune system and leave patients with a compromised immunity system less able to fight cancer cells on its own or other secondary infections.
Because of these safety concerns among many others, science is constantly searching for gentler and safer alternatives to Chemo and Radiation Therapy. Standard medical procedure is not always the right way to achieve the goal, which is to be cancer free.
This article seeks to present readers with viable and solid investment-grade companies to capitalize on the evolution of cancer treatment. It will summarize companies specializing in Electro Cancer Therapy (ECT) and immunotherapy approaches to fighting this dreaded disease.
Electro Cancer Therapy
From the website of German's Dr. Baltins Praxis Clinic I found the following wrap up of Electro Cancer Therapy:
The use of electric current in the medicine has a long tradition which however.
Already in the 18th century the Italian Luigi Galvani researched the influence of weak electric current on organic tissue. The French dermatologist F. J. Darier (1856 - 1938) commented on the curing of malignant melanomas via percutaneously (through the skin) set needle electrodes with a few milliampere of current.
However, the inventor of the electro-cancer therapy , the doctor and electrical engineer Dr. med. Rudolf Pekar (1912 - 2004) from Bad Ischl, Austria, succeeded in finding a causal and highly effective treatment of solid tumors. Dr. Pekar researched the impact of galvanic current on cancer cells and carcinomas from the 1950s onward and refined the "percutaneous bio-electro therapy" and later the international "electro-cancer therapy" in tireless research work until his death in 2004.
There are different forms of administration of the electrical currents. Depending on the symptoms and the position of the tumor, there is the possibility of treatment with surface electrodes or with needle galvanization.
Needle galvanization employs galvanic electrical stimulation to treat tumors and skin cancers. ECT is used most often as an adjunct with other therapies. Using local anesthesia, the physician inserts a positively-charged platinum, gold or silver needle into the tumor and places negatively-charged needles around the tumor. Voltages of 6 to 15 volts are used, dependent upon tumor size. To enhance the cancer-cell-killing power of ECT, sometimes small amounts of chemotherapy agents are applied to the skin and driven into the tumor by a kind of sweating effect of the electric current ("iontophoresis"). ECT works by influencing the pH levels within the tumor and causing electrolysis of its tissue, which is more susceptible to direct current than normal tissue. The pH change depolarizes cancer cell membranes and causes tumors to be gently destroyed. The ECT process also appears to generate heat shock proteins around the cancer cells, inducing secondary cell-specific immunity. This process triggers Natural Killer cells, a welcome side effect triggering the immunity system into action additionally.
A similar method is called Electroporation. This approach causes a significant increase in the electrical conductivity and permeability of the cell plasma membrane caused by an externally applied electrical field. It is usually used in molecular biology as a way of introducing some substance into a cell, such as loading it with a molecular probe, a drug that can change the cell's function, or a piece of coding DNA.
Electroporation can also be used to help deliver drugs or genes into the cell by applying short and intense electric pulses that transiently permeabilize cell membrane, thus allowing transport of molecules otherwise not readily transported through a cellular membrane. This procedure is referred to as electrochemotherapy when the molecules to be transported is a chemotherapeutic agent, or gene electrotransfer when the molecule to be transported is DNA in nature.
Publically-traded Companies for Consideration to Capitalize on the ECT Approach
OncoSec Medical Inc (NASDAQ:ONCS) is positioned as a world leader with an electroporation technology platform to locally deliver clinically both proven chemotherapeutics (electrochemotherapy) and gene-based cytokines (electroimmunotherapy) for the treatment of solid tumor cancers.
While using different anti-cancer drugs, both techniques have shown selective destruction of cancerous cells and tumors in early-and late-stage trials, while sparing healthy normal tissue in the treated areas.
On May 29 the company issued a letter to their shareholders explaining that they are successfully executing towards their objectives for the year. Some highlights mentioned in the letter.
The company noted that it has initiated and enrolled several patients in a phase II study for the treatment of metastatic melanoma, called OMS-I100 and is expecting to report interim clinical data before year end.
The company has also initiated and enrolled several patients in a phase II study for the treatment of Merkel cell carcinoma, called OMS-I110 and expects to report interim clinical data before year end.
OncoSec said it is aiming to initiate and begin enrolling patients in a phase II study for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), called OMS-I120, by year-end.
Since the acquisition of a clinical data set of over 400 patients, OncoSec said it has compiled, reviewed and analyzed the data and presented preliminary results from a phase IV European head and neck cancer trial and phase I/II breast cancer trial.
The preliminary data sets from the completed phase III recurrent head and neck cancer studies carried out in the US are now being analyzed and the company said it intends to present the data at the 5th International Head and Neck Cancer Conference taking place July 21-25.
Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSEMKT:INO) is engaged in the discovery, development and delivery of vaccines, called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccines, focused on cancers and infectious diseases. The company's SynCon technology enables the design of universal DNA-based vaccines capable of providing cross-protection against new, unmatched strains of pathogens, such as influenza. Its electroporation DNA delivery technology uses brief, controlled electrical pulses to increase cellular DNA vaccine uptake. Inovio's clinical programs include human papillomavirus (HPV)/cervical cancer (therapeutic), avian influenza (preventative), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vaccines.
Inovio has developed multiple generations of clinical grade, electroporation-based DNA delivery systems, which consist of electrical pulse generators and needle-electrode applicators. The company continues to advance next-generation product designs and intellectual property including patents to meet anticipated usability and economy requirements for emerging preventive and therapeutic DNA vaccines.
The immunotherapy treatment of cancer has become a more promising approach in the past decade. Developments in both basic immunology and tumor biology have increased our knowledge of the interactions between the tumor cells and the immune system.
Cancer vaccines, antibody treatments and other "immunotherapies" have the potential to be more targeted, more effective and less toxic than today's approaches to fighting this disease.
These approaches - sometimes called biologic therapy, biotherapy, or biological response modifier therapy - are being developed and tested right now in research laboratories and medical facilities around the world by scientists, doctors and other specialists in cancer immunology.
Cancer immunology holds promise to be the greatest medical achievement of our era. Many of the most exciting new approaches to preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer are coming from immunological research. These immunotherapies help the immune system to better recognize and fight cancer cells and control tumor growth. These emerging approaches, of which cancer vaccines are just one example, could be less invasive and painful for patients - as well as more effective and enduring - than current, traditional treatments.
Cancer immunotherapies aim to boost the immune system's ability to find and destroy cancer cells and control tumor growth. Some of these therapies stimulate the system itself to mobilize and attack. Other therapies give the body extra immune system components to fend off cancer more successfully.
According to the Cancer Research Institute, cancer immunotherapy research is being conducted in these key areas:
- Immune-based tools for diagnosing and treating cancers
- Therapeutic cancer vaccines that target tumor antigens
- Monoclonal antibodies that can lead chemotherapy medications to tumors by binding with tumor cell antigens
- Adoptive transfer of "T cells" to recognize and attack cancer human
- Vaccines to prevent infection by viruses that can cause cancer
These advances are made possible by remarkable developments in cancer immunology, including the identification of specific, highly promising cancer antigens; the confirmation of a measurable human immune response to such antigens; the creation of techniques for monitoring various aspects of the response; and the development of novel vaccine constructs designed to induce an effective immune response.
Publically-traded Companies for Consideration to Capitalize on the Immunotherapy Approach
Dendreon Corporation (NASDAQ:DNDN) is a marketing-phase biotechnology company that applies its expertise in antigen identification, engineering and cell processing to produce active cellular immunotherapy (ACI) product candidates designed to stimulate an immune response in a variety of tumor types. Dendreon's first product, PROVENGE® (sipuleucel-T), was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in April 2010. Dendreon is exploring the application of additional ACI product candidates and small molecules for the potential treatment of a variety of cancers.

Final note
Oncology drugs and therapies are very important and necessary. The American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting that just started will attest to that.
According to FiercePharma the top-selling cancer drugs Rituxan, Avastin and Herceptin-were approved in 1997, 2004 and 1998, respectively. So, they've been long-term earners for the big pharmaceutical companies. Genentech's Avastin had $2.66 billion in sales in 2011. Avastin has attracted a lot of attention over the past few years and not always for reasons Genentech would welcome. Its use as a breast cancer treatment, approved by the FDA under its fast-track program, but that came into question when the FDA released data from follow-up studies. The agency moved to pull that indication from Avastin's label and the ensuing controversy grew until an FDA advisory panel meeting erupted with emotional testimony from patients, doctors, scientists and advocacy groups on both sides of the fence. The FDA did cancel that approval late last year, but doctors can still prescribe it off-label.
Alternative cancer therapies are necessary and will likely become the standard of care for many cancers in the future. A great way to capitalize on the current and upcoming advancements is to consider the aforementioned companies and ascertain positions well before the masses do and await additional data and marketing approvals as they occur. The cancer treatment field is growing and changing daily. As these new methods are recognized and validated, existing shareholders could be enjoying a substantial ride up.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, but may initiate a long position in ONCS, DNDN over the next 72 hours.

There were 128 plays in the Cowboys' 20-19 win over Cincinnati, and the Cowboys' best players made most of the game' biggest plays to end the Bengals' four-game winning streak.
It was an emotional victory for the Cowboys, who kept their playoff hopes alive. Here are five plays that shaped the game:
Play Jason Hatcher sack
Situation: Third-and-4 from Dallas 5
Score: Cincinnati, 7-3
Time: 2:19 left in first quarter
Taylor's Take: The Bengals, who had outscored their last four opponents 42-9 in the first quarter, were about to deliver an early knockout punch. But Hatcher drove left guard Clint Boling into the backfield and when Andy Dalton tried to move up in the pocket, Hatcher took him down. The Bengals settled for a field goal.
Play: Brandon Carr interception
Situation: First-and-10 from the 50
Score: Cincinnati, 10-3
Time: 12:16 left in second quarter
Taylor's Take: The Cowboys' defense had been pushed around until Carr made a fantastic play to intercept Andy Dalton's pass. Playing zone, Carr read Dalton's eyes as the quarterback scrambled. When he saw the ball thrown, Carr circled in front of A.J. Green and snatched the ball from the receiver who never saw him coming. Four plays later, the score was tied at 10-10.
Play: Gerald Sensabaugh pass breakup
Situation: Second-and-12 from Dallas 12
Score: Cincinnati, 13-10
Time: 9:34 left in the third quarter
Taylor's Take: Another big play kept the Cowboys within a touchdown. Tight end Jermaine Gresham was about to make a leaping catch over linebacker Ernie Sims in the back of the end zone, when Sensabaugh drilled him in the back to dislodge the ball.
Play: Kevin Ogletree reception
Situation: First-and-20 from Dallas 35
Score: Cincinnati, 19-10
Time: 8:02 left in fourth quarter
Taylor's Take: After Doug Free's holding penalty put the Cowboys in a big hole, Kevin Ogletree made a huge play. Ogletree, surpassed by Dwayne Harris on the depth chart, was filling for Dez Bryant who had injured his right index finger. Ogletree ran a 10-yard crossing route against a zone, made one defender missed and picked up a key first down.
Play: Anthony Spencer sack
Situation: Third-and-4 from Cincinnati 36
Score: Cincinnati, 19-17
Time: 4:40 left in the fourth quarter
Taylor's Take: The defense needed a stop to ensure Tony Romo had enough time to orchestrate a game-winning drive. Spencer, blitzing from inside, easily beat right guard Kevin Zeitler and sacked Andy Dalton as the tried to leave the pocket.

Ducks' Palmieri named No. 34 NHL prospect
The Kings' Brayden Schenn was tabbed the No. 1 prospect in the NHL in the latest edition of The Hockey News.
Schenn is the hero of the Canadian World Junior championship team whom the Kings refused to include in trade talks.
Three Ducks are among the top 60.
[caption id="attachment_60505" align="alignleft" width="150" caption="Etem"][/caption]
Kyle Palmieri, who played briefly with the Ducks in November, is ranked 34th, Emerson Etem of Long Beach is No. 57 and Justin Schultz, the defenseman from Wisconsin who made Jake Gardiner expendable, was No. 59.
The rest of the Ducks' Top 10:
4. Center Peter Holland.
5. Right wing Devante Smith-Pelly.
6. Defneseman Sami Vatanen.
7. Goalie Igor Bobkov.
8. Center Nicolas Deschamps.
9. Center Nick Bonino.
10. Defenseman Matt Clark.
The Kings had five in the top 60. A tipoff to the depth in their system is that goalie Martin Jones, who has a .932 save percentage for Manchester in the American Hockey League, is only ranked No. 10 in their system.
Schenn is No. 1 overall, center Andrei Loktionov is No. 39, defenseman Derek Forbort is No. 49, center Tyler Toffoli is No. 51 and defenseman Slava Voynov is No. 54.

Big Data Analytics Rollout: 10 Obstacles to Bridging the Skills Gap
Big Data Analytics Rollout: 10 Obstacles to Bridging the Skills Gapby Chris Preimesberger
The Analytics Skills ShortageDespite their deep understanding of the value of analytics, more than 65 percent of organizations lack enough professionals with the skills to analyze and glean insights from data. Without the proper skills, which include critical thinking and analytical tool training, enterprises' capacity to take advantage of analytics' potential is in serious jeopardy.
Tool-Related InefficienciesBecause of the lack of technically advanced data professionals, intuitive, easy-to-understand, highly visual platforms have never been more important. Yet, according to Lavastorm's research, inadequate self-service tools/reports are preventing 38 percent of professionals from accessing data.
Lack of Ongoing EducationSixty-four percent of respondents do not rely on any organization for ongoing education and networking. Not only is data being generated at an exponential rate, but it is also becoming more complex. To discover opportunities buried deep within these new data sources, new tools, more critical thinking skills and ongoing training are essential for business analysts to wring value from the data.
Lack of Funding or ResourcesEighteen percent of respondents claimed a lack of funding or resources is a main factor in preventing their organization from leveraging analytics more. For companies working with limited budgets, agile analytic tools that can deliver value without the high data management or administrative overhead of traditional tools are worthy of evaluation.
Inadequate Executive SupportSome executives and managers remain wary when it comes to applying analytics to solve business problems. In this survey, 15 percent of respondents claimed that a lack of support from executives or their organizations is standing in the way of leveraging analytics.
Data Is Not IntegratedIn organizations where day-to-day decisions are driven by analytics, analysts need the proper tools to react to new questions and unplanned scenarios. To do so, analysts must have the necessary data, from all facets of the organizations, at their fingertips. In fact, nearly 13 percent of respondents thought that better data models, integration and consistency would help make their jobs easier and more valuable.
Poor Alignment With ITIn 36 percent of organizations, business and IT departments both have analytic capabilities, but they function separately. Because of this separation, information and tools may not flow smoothly to the business decision makers, limiting the analytic capabilities of the organization.
Time ConstraintsThe requirements-gathering process eats up time for everyone. In fact, it consumed 13 percent of survey respondents' time over the past year, almost equivalent to time spent on the actual data analysis/mining process (14 percent of respondents' time).
Shortage of Quantitative SkillsMath skills aren't just in short supply for engineers and scientists; they are more important to managers and executives than ever before. In the survey, more respondents (48 percent) claimed that statistics, math or quantitative skills are the tools their organizations most urgently need to increase.
Steps to Fix the ProblemSo what can organizations do to overcome these obstacles and reap more benefits from analytics? Among other methods, organizations can implement analytic solutions that close the "skills gap." This can be done by bringing greater analytic power, including statistical analysis and integration capabilities, to business users and solutions that can close the "trust gap" through visualizations that encourage collaboration and communication among analysts, IT managers and executives.
Enterprises everywhere are scrambling to find actionable insights into their data—and for good reason. With the right analytics platforms in place, enterprises can boost sales, increase efficiency and improve operations around activities such as fraud management, customer service, risk management and strategic planning. Of course, there is a learning curve involved. As organizations rely more on analytics, there is a sense of urgency to retool their workforce with skills that will enable more decision makers to take advantage of new analytic technologies. Lavastorm Analytics' Analytical Skills, Tools & Attitudes 2013 report, released in October, sheds some new light on this issue. On the bright side, of the 425-plus analytics professionals who were surveyed for the report, 83 percent claimed analytics is critical to their organization. Yet, there are a number of significant obstacles preventing organizations from realizing analytics' true potential. In this eWEEK slide show using Lavastorm's research, we examine these issues.

White House Heritage's Alyssa Arden might have been an eighth grader coming into this year, but she took the lead role in the circle halfway through the season and never looked back. She came within a win from taking the Lady Patriots to the regional round in their first year of AA classification.
"I heard how good she was coming into this season, but once I saw it for myself, I was a little surprised, to be honest," said Heritage coach Leslie Barrow. "She's just so calm and she doesn't let anything get to her, good or bad.
"You can't ever tell from her expression whether she's just struck out five batters in a row, or if she's just given up a game winning homerun. Her expressions and temperament just don't change and that's uncommon for any pitcher, but especially one that's just in the eighth grade."
Arden only started half of the season in the circle, but managed to end the season with a 1.6 ERA with 78 strikeouts and allowed just 10 walks, and gave up just 39 total hits.
She also did well on the offensive side of the ball, finishing with a .462 batting average with three homeruns.
"This is a huge honor, but it's really more of a team honor than an individual honor with me," said Arden. "The team really did a great job of backing me up this season and was always there for me, so it's great to get acknowledged for what I've done, but again, it was my team that help me accomplish everything I've accomplished this season."
Coach Barrow said she had second thoughts about throwing her out there at such a young age, but Arden took that decision out of her hands after an outing at a tournament. She followed that up with a pair of back-to-back no-hitters.
"We were in a tournament earlier this season when I basically just asked the girls who wanted to pitch in one of our last games while we were there," said Barrow. "She immediately spoke up and ended up winning that game and the next one, and then she went out and got back-to-back no-hitters in district contests so she kind-of took the decision out of my hands.
"For a while I was worried how the team would react with having someone so young in the circle for us, but our girls rallied around her and I think they are like anyone else, they just want the best person out there that would give us the best chance to win. Alyssa was that person for us and she really handled everything really well this season."
Arden said she wasn't really nervous about leading the team.
"I don't guess I really even thought about it," Arden said. "The seniors and juniors never gave me a hard time, they were all really nice all season.
"I think everyone else really made a big deal about my age at first, but by the end of the season all I was really talking about was my pitching and not my age so much."
Barrow said the way Arden burst onto the scene this year gives the Lady Patriots something to look forward to in the future, but she also realizes that there will be those that think she's still unproven and doesn't deserve the award.
"I've heard some talk about her being a fluke and once the district has time to scout her that they will catch up, but I don't really believe that," said Barrow. "She's not a Collins yet, but hopefully she will be as a senior."
