What if Godzilla was One of Us?
Director: Gareth Edwards
Starring: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Ken Watanabe, and Bryan Cranston
Plot: A bunch of horrifying creatures terrorize a city and the world is powerless to stop them! Wait, that's the plot of Smurfs 2.
Rating: PG-13 for CG explosions and destruction of perfectly good real estate.
Godzilla is a gigantic lizard/dinosaur type creature who rises out of the ocean every once in a while to teach the children of Japan valuable lessons about friendship and love, and if time permitting, fight other monsters.
The original Godzilla films featured men in monster suits fighting on sets with miniaturized buildings that were stepped on and crushed while model planes on wires flew over their rubber heads, thus proving that early monster movies were really flipping fun to make.
In 1998 Godzilla was reborn as a fully computer generated monster in Roland Emmerich's actioner Godzilla, unfortunately audiences didn't warm up to this high tech addition to the franchise. Probably because the mighty Godzilla the king of the monsters was brought down by Matthew Broderick.
After a 16 year vacation the big green dinosaur we all know and love returned to the big screen earlier this year in a movie entitled (wait for it…) Godzilla. This modernized version doesn't have rubber monster suits and hoards of Japanese extras running in terror. But is does have the guy from Breaking Bad, Kick-Ass from Kick-Ass, and the Olsen sister who can actually act.
So that's a good thing. Right?
In 1999, a mining expedition in the Philippines unearth some huge dinosaur like creatures. One of them swims towards Japan where it causes a nuclear powerplant to overload killing lots of scientists and the wife of plant manager Joe Brody (Bryan Cranston, the guy from Breaking Bad). 15 years later Brody with the help of his Navy officer son Ford (the kid from Kick-Ass) return to the plant to find out what exactly happened and instead find a bunch of scientists from the top secret Project Monarch milling about. Before Brody can exclaim "I knew there was a conspiracy!" he's killed when a giant creature explodes out of the ground and flies away, leaving Ford to be the lead actor for the rest of the movie.
Soon Ford, Project Monarch scientist Serizawa (Ken Watanabe) and the United States Navy are racing across the globe to stop these giant creatures now dubbed MOTUS – yes there are two of them now as another one shows up and crushes the Vegas strip. I guess he couldn't get Brittany Spears tickets.
Oh woe is us! If only there were a larger creature out there somewhere who could rise from the depths to battle these giant MOTUS and bring peace to the planet?
Godzilla turns into a battle royale as our title character steps into the ring against the two MOTUS who look like a praying mantis on a bad day. Unfortunately the battle takes place in San Francisco, which gets flattened in the process. But don't worry, it's just a computer generated San Francisco so stomp those buildings Godzilla! It's not like all those people are real or anything!
Godzilla is a well made update of the classic monster movies many of us watched on a Saturday afternoon when we were kids. I'm all for a good updating of a classic film, but I miss the poorly dubbed dialogue andlow budget cheesiness that made those movies so special.
The miniature buildings, tiny pyrotechnics, and radio controlled tanks are gone. And so is the fun.
Sometimes the new isn't as appealing as the old.

Natives have premiered their brilliant new video for 'Stop the Rain' – shot on location in Morocco' via The Independent.
On the project, guitarist Jack Fairbrother said:
"Our love for percussion led us to Morocco, a muslim country where the Arabic East meets sub-Saharan Africa. We instantly fell in love with the rhythm of the place, from the main squares to the mountains, everything had a beat. We met Berbers in Agadir, where drumming circles are a part of everyday social life and were captivated by the way rhythm was used to bring people together and tell stories. This idea, coupled with the welcoming warmth of the culture formed the heart and soul of Stop The Rain.
"The people we met couldn't have made us feel more welcome, we were repeatedly invited to play music with locals who were keen to pass on their techniques and knowledge and often invited us into their homes to share stories. It was a life-changing experience for us and completely reinforced our outlook on community, culture and the world."

In Vivo US Monitoring of Catheter-based Vascular Delivery of Gene Microspheres in Pigs: Feasibility Radiology. Aug, 2003 | Pubmed ID: 12893906 In this study, the authors tested the feasibility of using ultrasonography (US) to monitor catheter-based vascular gene microsphere delivery. Polymeric biodegradable microspheres (mean diameter, 5 microm) were prepared by using a double-emulsion technique to encapsulate DNA-plasmid-encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes. With use of gene-delivery catheters, GFP microspheres were locally delivered into the left femoral arterial walls of six pigs; the contralateral arteries were not infused with microspheres and thus served as negative control vessels. The delivery procedures were monitored with high-frequency (8-15-MHz) transducer US. The effectiveness of monitoring with US was compared with the effectiveness of monitoring with immunohistochemical anti-GFP staining. A highly echogenic "star burst" sign around the entire vessel wall was seen at US and correlated with immunohistochemical findings that showed the destination of the gene microspheres. Study results demonstrate the potential of US for monitoring catheter-based vascular gene microsphere delivery in vivo.
Detection of Dual-gene Expression in Arteries Using an Optical Imaging Method Journal of Biomedical Optics. Nov-Dec, 2004 | Pubmed ID: 15568943 We evaluate the in vivo use of an optical imaging method to detect the vascular expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) or red fluorescent protein (RFP), and to detect the simultaneous expression of GFP and RFP after transduction into arteries by a dual-promoter lentiviral vector driving their concurrent expression. This method involves using a charge-coupled device camera to detect fluorescence, a fiber optic probe to transmit light, and optical filters to distinguish each marker. In animal models, these vectors are locally delivered to target arteries, whereas the gene for a nonfluorescent cell-surface protein is transduced into contralateral arteries as the sham control. The images show distinct areas of bright fluorescence from GFP and RFP along the target arteries on excitation; no exogenous fluorescence is observed in the controls. Measured signal intensities from arteries transduced with the single- and dual-promoter vectors exceed the autofluorescence signal from the controls. Transgene expression of GFP and RFP in vivo is confirmed with confocal microscopy. We demonstrate the use of an optical imaging method to concurrently detect two distinct fluorescent proteins, potentially permitting the expression of multiple transgenes and their localization in the vasculature to be monitored.
MR Imaging of Biodegradable Polymeric Microparticles: a Potential Method of Monitoring Local Drug Delivery Magnetic Resonance in Medicine : Official Journal of the Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine / Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine. Mar, 2005 | Pubmed ID: 15723408 Gadolinium diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA) was encapsulated into biodegradable, bioadhesive polymeric microparticles to enable noninvasive monitoring of their local intravesical delivery with MRI. The microparticles were characterized by contrast agent encapsulation and release kinetics, T(1) relaxation rates, and contrast enhancement in vivo. The level of Gd-DTPA loading into microparticles was 14.3 +/- 0.6 mug/mg polymer. The measured T(1) relaxation rates of the microparticles showed a direct dependence on Gd-DPTA content. Both 1.5T and 4.7T MR scanners were used to image murine bladders instilled intravesically with Gd-DTPA-loaded particles in vivo. MR images showed ring-shaped regions of enhancement inscribing the bladder wall, which were attributed to the microparticles that were preferentially adherent to the mucosa lining the urothelium. The images of controls exhibited no such enhancement. The normalized signal intensities measured from post-instillation images were significantly greater (P < 0.05) than those in the pre-instillation images. Contrast enhancement was observed for at least 5 days after the initial instillation, although the enhancement decreased due to microparticle degradation or mucosa renewal. The localized distribution of biodegradable, bioadhesive microparticles encapsulating Gd-DTPA was successfully visualized with MRI in vivo, allowing particle-mediated delivery to be temporally and spatially monitored noninvasively.
Dynamic Imaging of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells Trafficking to Myocardial Infarction Circulation. Sep, 2005 | Pubmed ID: 16129797 Recent results from animal studies suggest that stem cells may be able to home to sites of myocardial injury to assist in tissue regeneration. However, the histological interpretation of postmortem tissue, on which many of these studies are based, has recently been widely debated.
Evaluating the Intracellular Stability and Unpacking of DNA Nanocomplexes by Quantum Dots-FRET Journal of Controlled Release : Official Journal of the Controlled Release Society. Nov, 2006 | Pubmed ID: 17081642 We demonstrate a highly sensitive method to characterize the structural composition and intracellular fate of polymeric DNA nanocomplexes, formed by condensing plasmid DNA with cationic polymers through electrostatic interactions. Rational design of more efficient polymeric gene carriers will be possible only with mechanistic insights of the rate-limiting steps in the non-viral gene transfer process. To characterize the composition and binding dynamics of nanocomplexes, plasmid and its polymer carrier within nanocomplexes were labeled with quantum dots (QDs) and fluorescent organic dyes, respectively, as a donor and acceptor pair for fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The high signal-to-noise ratio in QD-mediated FRET enabled precise detection of discrete changes in nanocomplex state at the single-particle level, against various intracellular microenvironments. The distribution and unpacking of individual nanocomplexes within cells could thus be unambiguously followed by fluorescence microscopy. QD-FRET is a highly sensitive and quantitative method to determine the composition and dynamic stability of nanocomplexes during intracellular transport, where barriers to gene delivery may be identified to facilitate gene carrier optimization.
Quantitative Comparison of Intracellular Unpacking Kinetics of Polyplexes by a Model Constructed from Quantum Dot-FRET Molecular Therapy : the Journal of the American Society of Gene Therapy. Feb, 2008 | Pubmed ID: 18180773 A major challenge for non-viral gene delivery is gaining a mechanistic understanding of the rate-limiting steps. A critical barrier in polyplex-mediated gene delivery is the timely unpacking of polyplexes within the target cell to liberate DNA for efficient gene transfer. In this study, the component plasmid DNA and polymeric gene carrier were individually labeled with quantum dots (QDs) and Cy5 dyes, respectively, as a donor and acceptor pair for fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The high signal-to-noise ratio in QD-mediated FRET enabled sensitive detection of discrete changes in polyplex stability. The intracellular uptake and dissociation of polyplexes through QD-FRET was captured over time by confocal microscopy. From quantitative image-based analysis, distributions of released plasmid within the endo/lysosomal, cytosolic, and nuclear compartments formed the basis for constructing a three-compartment first-order kinetics model. Polyplex unpacking kinetics for chitosan, polyethylenimine, and polyphosphoramidate were compared and found to correlate well with transfection efficiencies. Thus, QD-FRET-enabled detection of polyplex stability combined with image-based quantification is a valuable method for studying mechanisms involved in polyplex unpacking and trafficking within live cells. We anticipate that this method will also aid the design of more efficient gene carriers.
The Convergence of Quantum-dot-mediated Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer and Microfluidics for Monitoring DNA Polyplex Self-assembly in Real Time Nanotechnology. Mar, 2009 | Pubmed ID: 19417478 We present a novel convergence of quantum-dot-mediated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (QD-FRET) and microfluidics, through which molecular interactions were precisely controlled and monitored using highly sensitive quantum-dot-mediated FRET. We demonstrate its potential in studying the kinetics of self-assembly of DNA polyplexes under laminar flow in real time with millisecond resolution. The integration of nanophotonics and microfluidics offers a powerful tool for elucidating the formation of polyelectrolyte polyplexes, which is expected to provide better control and synthesis of uniform and customizable polyplexes for future nucleic acid-based therapeutics.
Simultaneous Non-invasive Analysis of DNA Condensation and Stability by Two-step QD-FRET Nano Today. Apr, 2009 | Pubmed ID: 20161048 Nanoscale vectors comprised of cationic polymers that condense DNA to form nanocomplexes are promising options for gene transfer. The rational design of more efficient nonviral gene carriers will be possible only with better mechanistic understanding of the critical rate-limiting steps, such as nanocomplex unpacking to release DNA and degradation by nucleases. We present a two-step quantum dot fluorescence resonance energy transfer (two-step QD-FRET) approach to simultaneously and non-invasively analyze DNA condensation and stability. Plasmid DNA, double-labeled with QD (525 nm emission) and nucleic acid dyes, were complexed with Cy5-labeled cationic gene carriers. The QD donor drives energy transfer stepwise through the intermediate nucleic acid dye to the final acceptor Cy5. At least three distinct states of DNA condensation and integrity were distinguished in single particle manner and within cells by quantitative ratiometric analysis of energy transfer efficiencies. This novel two-step QD-FRET method allows for more detailed assessment of the onset of DNA release and degradation simultaneously.

The Sculptor's Apprentice is a how to sculpture site. We want to show you tips that we have learned to make it easier for you to create your work. So, watch a video, check out our resources page, post a comment, or send us an email about what you want to learn. And don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss any tutorials!
Quick Tip #1 Sculpting Clay Storage
Today on The Sculptor's Apprentice, a quick tip about sculpting clay storage.
We use Chavant Brand clay, and the type that we use is NSP Firm in the color of green. NSP stands for Non-Sulfurated Plasticine, and that is important because the sulfur in some oil based clays can inhibit the cure of our silicone mold making material.
One of the great things about oil based sculpting clay is that it doesn't dry out. But … that is only mostly true. It will dry out, but the timeline is much longer than water based clay. What that means for us is that we can leave our clay sculpture uncovered when we are working on it, and even well after we are finished. But at some point, usually when the foundry has a finished bronze casting, we need to cut the clay sculpture up and put it in an air tight container. Check out the video below to get the details.
Tutorial #1: Sculpture Boards
Welcome to the first session of the Sculptor's Apprentice! Today's post is about sculpture boards and bases. Whatever you call them, these are the things that you sculpt your clay on. There are lots of different ways to approach this, and this video shows you how we handle it in our studio. We would love to hear what you do, so post in the comments to share your tips with the community, and if you use our tutorial to get started, post a photo in the comments so we can be proud of you!
Below you will find the show notes with all the products that we talk about in the video.
Featured Project: Bill Snyder
The Bill Snyder Statue project came together over the first half of 2013. For five weeks between May 1st and June 5th, we had one goal – to complete and mold a nearly eight foot tall clay sculpture of Kansas State Football Coach, Bill Snyder. After a frenzy of clay, photos, scaffolding, and ladders we delivered the mold to the foundry in early June, where we oversaw the waxwork, casting, chasing and patination of the final bronze. After two and a half short months, our installation crew picked up the statue and headed west on I-70 to Manhattan, KS to install Coach in his new home, Bill Snyder Family Stadium. We are so thankful to the entire K-State Family for choosing us to create a monument of their beloved Coach Snyder. Read more

Michigan Lawmakers Propose Animal Abuse Registry
LANSING, Mich. (AP) - People convicted of animal abuse would be required to register with local law enforcement and prohibited from adopting animals under legislation recently introduced in the Michigan House.
Republican Rep. Paul Muxlow of Brown City and Democratic Rep. Harvey Santana of Detroit introduced legislation this weekthat would require people convicted of animal abuse to submit their address, photograph and social security number to local law enforcement.
People would remain on the registry for five years and would be required to pay an annual fee of $250.
Another bill would prohibit animal control shelters from allowing people listed on the registry to adopt animals.
Similar measures were introduced last year.

Dr. Michael Scott to Lead State Geographic Information Committee
SALISBURY, MD---Salisbury University's Dr. Michael Scott has put himself on the map—again.
Scott was recently named chair-elect of the Maryland State Geographic Information Committee (MSGIC) for 2010-2011. He will chair the committee the following year.
"Dr. Scott has been instrumental in developing geographic information system (GIS) programs and research projects at the University," said Dr. Karen Olmstead, dean of the Henson School of Science and Technology. "His selection reflects the quality of the work within the Department of Geography and Geosciences, and his ability to provide leadership and vision for GIS efforts statewide."
Representing over 550 GIS professionals in Maryland and beyond, the committee coordinates GIS activities within the state. According to Scott, this is the first time an individual from academia or from the Eastern Shore has held the position.
While chair, he will lead the committee in developing resources among those who are collecting and using spatial data and GIS technology. The committee also provides advice on GIS issues to the Governor's Office and the legislature, develops standards for GIS work, and advocates for GIS expansion throughout the state.
In 2009, Scott earned the University System of Maryland's (USM) prestigious $80,000 Wilson H. Elkins Professorship. In 2007, he became the Eastern Shore's first certified GIS Professional. He earned his Ph.D. in Geography from University of South Carolina in 1998 and specializes in the areas of GIS, cartography and environmental hazards.
For more information about the committee, visit www.msgic.state.md.us. For other details, call 410-543-6030 or visit www.salisbury.edu.

Thanks everyone for being here tonight – it is always great fun and a pleasure for me and Sally to have you all over for such good company! I want to introduce my friend Shane who some of you have met already. He works as a health educator. We invited him here especially tonight to talk to all of us about an important disease.
You see, my very good friend Frank was recently diagnosed with colon cancer. I was with him at times during his treatments, and I realized that I didn't know very much about this disease – neither did Sally for that matter. Frank is only 10 years older than I am so this really hit home. It has been 5 years since he was initially diagnosed and there is no still sign of any cancer returning. That means he will probably live his normal lifetime. The earlier a cancer is discovered and treated, the better the chance for long term survival.
Shane knows a lot about colon cancer and he taught me and Sally a good deal about it. Shane knows Frank very well also. Because of how important this is, we asked Shane to share what he knows about colon cancer with our whole group tonight!
Yes, in fact, from what we have learned from Shane, both of us realized we needed to see a primary care doctor to make sure we were checked out.
Shane, you're on!
Thanks John. I know some of you guys, and it is a pleasure to meet the rest of you and share this important information as John requested. I want to make this very informal, so please interrupt me at any time to ask questions.
Frank told me he is glad that I am sharing his situation with you! In fact, do any of you have any questions about what we are talking about when we say "colon cancer or colorectal cancer?" We should probably start there.
Yes. Did you say "colorectal" cancer?. I thought you said Frank had "colon" cancer….What's the difference?
Well, cancer can occur anywhere in the colon, even at the end of it, which is called the rectum.
Frank had his cancer in the left side of his colon which is the most common part of the colon to have cancer. But some people have cancer only in the rectum which is at the very end of the colon. We use the term "colorectal" cancer when we are talking about things that are related to both the colon and rectum. But we also distinguish colon cancer from rectal cancer because they are often treated differently.
Wow. I had no idea about that. So, the only real difference between colon cancer and rectal cancer is the location of the cancer, and that's why the treatment is different?
Yes. The two cancers can look a little differently under the microscope, but the main difference is where they are located and how they are treated.
Hey – Sorry, I hate to ask a question like this, but what exactly is cancer anyway? Do the doctors know?
Let me explain it like this: All the organs of the body are made of up tiny cells. As cells normally die they are replaced by new cells. Sometimes though the cells do not die as they are normally supposed to, but keep on dividing, making more of themselves. They grow out of control. That is a condition called cancer. When there are many cancer cells that keep growing, they become a tumor. Tumors can spread to many other places in the body.
Think of your colon as a tube, sort of like a garden hose. The whole inside of it is lined with tiny cells. The food you eat passes through this tube where your body extracts energy and nutrition. Now the food turns into waste. If the cells lining the tube start growing out of control, then they can sometimes become colon or rectal cancer.
So, how did Frank get colon cancer anyway?
Even the doctors don't really know how anyone gets colon cancer. There are some things that put you at higher risk for getting colon cancer though. Age is the biggest risk factor. The older you are, the more likely you are to get colon cancer. Most colon cancers are diagnosed in people between the ages of 50 and 70. If you have family members that have had colon cancer, that can also put you at higher risk. Sometimes people have a type of colon cancer that is passed down through their family. Those people usually have cancer at a younger age, so everyone needs to tell their doctor about any family members who have had cancer.
People all over the world get colorectal cancer. But many more people who live in North America and Europe get colorectal cancer than do people who live in Africa and Asia, or other parts of the world.
Aren't there other things that can make you more likely to get colon cancer? And what about diet? I thought high fiber diets help prevent colorectal cancer, with things like vegetables, beans, and fruits.
Eating a healthy diet high in fiber is recommended for everyone, but it doesn't actually prevent you from getting colon cancer that we know of. The big medical studies have not conclusively shown that eating a high fiber diet can prevent colorectal cancer, but eating a healthy diet is always a good idea. There are other risk factors. The doctors do know that smoking increases your risk of colorectal cancer, in addition to other cancers, so it is always a good idea to stop smoking.
The other group of people besides those with a strong family history of colon cancer, that are at high risk of colorectal cancer are people with a disease called "ulcerative colitis." This is probably new to you. Ulcerative colitis is a disease of young people, usually in their 20s and 30s that causes abdominal pain and often bloody diarrhea. So the doctor will watch patients more closely if they have ulcerative colitis.
So, how did Frank even find out that he had colon cancer? Did he have any symptoms?
No, he really felt fine, and that is just why this information is so important. Most people don't really have symptoms until the cancer is more advanced. Frank went to his primary care doctor for a routine check up. The doctor did a digital rectal exam. He does that by putting a gloved finger into the rectum and feeling for bumps. Then he also checked for any blood in the stool. Both were negative, but the doctor recommended a flexible sigmoidoscopy anyway just for routine colon cancer screening because Frank had just turned 50 years old.
Are those things usual for a doctor to do?
Yes. Part of routine screening is that doctors do the digital rectal exam because occasionally rectal cancer can be felt that way. They also check the stool for occult blood at the same time, which means blood that cannot be seen with the naked eye. They put the stool on a special card and see if a chemical makes it change color. There will be a color change if there is blood in the stool.
Colon cancers can leak little bits of blood into your stool, and it can be detected when the laboratory checks these cards. Fecal occult blood testing doesn't detect all cancers though, so all people over age 50 are recommended to have flexible sigmoidoscopy if they are at average risk for colon cancer. That's what Frank had done because he was over 50 and didn't really have many risk factors. Again, the sad thing is that most people don't have any symptoms with colon cancer until the cancer is very advanced. Remember, Frank didn't have any symptoms at all.
What is flexible sigmoidoscopy? I've heard of colonoscopy. Is that the same thing?
They are very similar. A sigmoidoscopy and a colonoscopy both use flexible tubes with a camera on one end and the other end connects to the monitor that both the doctor and patient view.
It is inserted into your rectum and the camera looks at the insides of your colon. The sigmoidoscopy tubing is short. It is just long enough to look at the inside of the left side of your colon. That's where most cancers occur - on the left side of your colon.
The doctor can see the insides of your colon and remove any polyps that might be cancer, or be a type of polyp that could turn into cancer someday. I actually brought one of these with me. Here, have a look.
That's what Frank had done. They saw a polyp that had turned into a mass in the left side of his colon. The doctor took a little piece of it to determine if it was cancer. The medical term for that is "taking a biopsy."
Does that "sigmoidoscope" thing hurt? What about when the doctor cuts the small piece of the colon out to examine it? Does that hurt?
Usually you just feel pressure, but your doctor can give you medicine to make you feel as comfortable as possible. You might feel bloated or like you have to pass gas. That is completely normal.
So, how come they only look at the left half of the colon instead of all of it?
Good question! Remember colon cancer usually happens on the left side of the colon. That brings me back to the difference between sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy. The sigmoidoscope tube is shorter than the colonoscope one. What Frank had that we just talked about was sigmoidoscopy, which is only long enough to see the left half of the colon, and is used for screening all people of average risk over the age of 50. This is used for screening because the majority of all colon cancers happen on the left side of the colon.
If you have had symptoms though, like bloody stools, abdominal pain, weight loss, or if your stool was positive for occult blood, or if you are at high risk because of a family history of colon cancer, then your doctor will recommend a colonoscopy. That's just a longer tube with a camera on the end that is long enough to look at the insides of the entire colon.
During colonoscopy, because it is more extensive, you are given medication to put you to sleep.
Where does the doctor do this? Can it be done in a doctor's office or would I have to go to a hospital?
These tests can be done right in the doctor's office if they have the right equipment. Or they might be done in hospital facilities also, but you get to go home the same day. If you have been sedated, as with colonoscopy, you need to have someone else to drive you home.
When Frank had his done, the doctor had it set up so that Frank could see the TV monitor showing the inside of his colon, and the interpreter had a good place to sit so there was good communication for Frank, the doctor and the interpreter, but Frank still had privacy.
So patients have either a sigmoidoscopy or a colonoscopy. The sigmoidoscopy is for people at average risk of colon cancer and needs to be done every five years. So, beginning at age 50, you should have one at 55, 60, 65, 70 and so forth. The colonoscopy is for people at above average risk and is only done every 10 years. Which means, if you have one at age 50, you should have another at 60, then at 70 and so on.
Is it true that colon polyps are the same as cancer?
Not exactly. It is true that most colon cancers start out as bumps on the inside of the colon called polyps, but only some polyps become cancer.
Many polyps are not harmful at all, but some are "pre-cancers" and so they need to be removed by your doctor. Then the polyp cells can be looked at under a microscope to see if there are any cancer cells in it. In Frank's case, the polyp had already turned from a polyp into a mass of cancer cells. It was therefore called a tumor. That's another name for a cluster of cancer cells.
So, the doctor told Frank that he had colon cancer. Then what did he do?
First, Frank took some time for himself and to be with his wife and family. He was pretty scared. He contacted me for advice at that point. He wasn't sure what would happen, or how long he might have to live. The doctor did a CAT scan to see how advanced the cancer was and see if it had spread anywhere. A CAT scan is a picture of your body to see if the cancer has spread. CAT is an abbreviation of a long medical term. Luckily they didn't see the cancer anywhere else except in his colon. He had to have surgery to remove the part of his colon that had cancer in it, and then have chemotherapy every few weeks for 6 months. Because a lot of Frank's colon had to be removed to get out all of the cancer, the surgeon had to give him a colostomy.
A colostomy is where the surgeon connects the remaining normal end of your colon to the skin on the outside of your stomach. You wear a pouch over the hole in your abdomen to collect the stool. The bag has to be changed every day.
That took a while for him to get used to! The colostomy doesn't have to be permanent for everyone, but it was for Frank because he had to have a large portion of his colon removed to take out all the cancer.
Do you always have to have surgery for colon cancer? Or is there something else they can do?
For cancer of the colon, surgery is always needed to remove the cancer from that part of the colon. Chemotherapy alone isn't enough.
Sometimes the normal ends of the colon can be reconnected.
But sometimes so much has to be removed that there isn't enough colon left to be reattached to the rectum. That's what happened to Frank. That's why the remaining colon had to be brought out to the skin on the abdomen and empty there into a pouch. That's called a colostomy.
Chemotherapy is usually recommended for 6 months after surgery to try to kill any cancer cells that might be left, and decrease the chance that the cancer will recur.
Didn't you say that if the cancer is just in the rectum, that it is treated differently?
Yes. That's a very important point. Rectal cancer is usually treated differently from the rest of the colon.
For cancer of the rectum, surgery is usually, but not always, necessary. Occasionally radiation and chemotherapy alone can cure rectal cancer if it is detected early enough.
Very often chemotherapy and radiation are given before the surgery to make the cancer smaller. That way less has to be removed at surgery.
Sometimes the very end of the rectum must be removed and the rectal opening is closed up. Then the healthy end of the colon is attached to the skin of the stomach as a colostomy that is permanent. If the very end of the rectum does not have to be removed, then the colostomy may be temporary, and the normal end of the colon can be reattached to the rectum after healing has occurred there.
This is why early detection is so important.
Even though screening tests can be uncomfortable, catching cancer before it spreads is vital. In Frank's case, if he had the screening test 5 years earlier, the polyp might have been in the pre-cancer stage. Then only a small section of his colon would have been removed.
So if Frank had been tested earlier, he wouldn't need a colostomy?
Probably not! That's why I'm glad you all are here today. So you can learn what Frank didn't know. And you can help us get this information to others.
What happens when the cancer has spread to other places in the body already?
If colorectal cancer has already spread to other parts of your body, surgery and chemotherapy are usually given only if they might make some of your symptoms better. This is because our treatments cannot cure colorectal cancer if it has already spread throughout the body. This is called metastatic cancer. So you can see how very important early detection is. The scientists have not been able to develop very good treatments for advanced cancer yet.
People who have advanced cancer should talk to their doctor about experimental treatments. These experimental treatments are called clinical trials.
Clinical trials? What are they?
Clinical trials are studies done with human beings. For people with colorectal cancer these studies are especially important because once a patient's cancer has spread to other parts of the body, treatment options are very limited. We do not have any treatments that can cure colorectal cancer at this time. So clinical trials for colorectal cancer are being done to try to find better ways to treat colorectal cancer, as well as to prevent it and detect it early.
Are clinical trials only done for colorectal cancer?
Clinical trials are done for all cancers, as well as all other diseases. Clinical trials can also be used to search for ways to identify those at high risk of developing an illness, prevent an illness, find it earlier, treat it more effectively, reduce its symptoms, or find less expensive, but equally effective, ways to treat a disease.
You should keep an open mind about clinical trials. Ask your doctor if there are any clinical trials for which you may qualify. What researchers can learn from your participation may benefit you and others in the community who develop the same disease. Since the risk of getting many diseases can increase if someone else in the family already has the disease, the knowledge gained by your participation in a clinical trial might even help members of your own family in the future.
Many clinical trials are only open to people who already have a specific disease. In these trials, if you already have a particular disease, you might receive either the treatment for the disease that is routinely given or you might be given the new treatment for the disease. Then the researchers evaluate if the new treatment is as good or better than the standard treatment.
How will I know if I am part of a clinical trial? Will they ask me first?
The researcher will ALWAYS thoroughly explain the study to you ahead of time and ask if you are interested in participating in the evaluation of the new therapy. If you decide that you want to participate, the researcher will be sure you fully understand the study and then ask you to sign a consent document that confirms that you wish to participate in the study. You can always stop participating in a study if you are not satisfied with the experience.
The researcher can also end your participation in the study if you do not do your part of the study in a reliable manner. For example, if you miss a lot of your scheduled follow up appointments, the researcher will have no choice but to drop you from the study, because the measurements of your progress are essential to knowing the true results.

I understand, but I keep thinking about that "colostomy" thing. How do you deal with that?
It is difficult for most people initially. For so long Frank just concentrated on recovering from surgery and getting through the chemotherapy. He was afraid the cancer might come back. It was also hard for him to have to see the colostomy; the doctor had said that it was a possibility before the surgery. Many people are worried what their spouse will think about it, how it might affect their sex life.
You know what though? When it came right down to it, Frank's wife was so happy to still have him alive and to be together, she couldn't care less about the colostomy. Sure, it took getting used to, but when you love someone, things like that just don't matter in the long run.
Frank also found some people who could help him and his family. He called the American Cancer Society and they got Frank and his wife into a group of colon cancer survivors. They said it was amazing to hear everyone's stories and how they got through it. Most of them have spouses or partners, too, so they talked about how colon cancer affected relationships as well. They all shared ideas that were very helpful. Most important of all, being around all of these positive cancer survivors really helped Frank and his wife figure out how to be positive in the face of uncertainty.
They could have been referred to a sex therapist if they had wanted to go, but just talking about it in the survivors' group really helped them enough. That was a great support. In fact, the whole group is celebrating Frank's 5-year cancer-free anniversary!
Wow. That's great that there are such helpful groups out there and available to us. But, how did Frank know for sure that the cancer never came back?
He went back to the doctor periodically for follow-up exams to look for any recurrence. They looked at his whole body with a CAT scan. There was a blood test too called a "CEA level" that they periodically checked. CEA stands for Carcinoembryonic Antigen. "Carcino" is a medical term for cancer. A new word for you to learn. Anyhow, the doctors use it as a marker sometimes to follow patients after their surgery and chemotherapy. If the CEA starts rising again, it means the cancer could be coming back. Luckily, Frank's CEA never did rise. Of course Frank and his wife will continue to get their regular checkups. Early detection of just about all diseases is very important.

What are you doing about your own health since you watched Frank go through all of this?
We have annual exams with our doctor. We don't smoke and we try to eat a healthy diet high in fiber. Lots of vegetables, fruits, fish and poultry. Very little red meat or fats. Because we don't have many risk factors for colorectal cancer, our doctor is doing standard screening tests since we're over age 50. We've had our flexible sigmoidoscopy a couple months ago and it was normal.
We have the sigmoidoscopy done every 5 years. If we were at higher risk, we would have a colonoscopy done. They only have to be done every 10 years. We also do something called "Fecal Occult Blood" test every year.
It's a routine screening process for people over 50 years of age. Every year my doctor gives me a packet so I can do my fecal occult blood test at home. This is a little cardboard packet with three little windows. You test your stool three days in a row. Every morning you put a little smear of your stool on one of the windows in the packet. Three cotton cloths and little wooden sticks are included in the packet. You use a cotton cloth to catch your stool before it goes into the toilet water. Then you use the wooden stick to scrape lightly along all the sides of the stool. Then you smear the stool on the stick in the first little window. You do the same thing for window 2 on the second day and window 3 on the third day. After all 3 windows are smeared, you mail the packet to the laboratory using the envelope they include in the packet. The laboratory sends the results of the Fecal Occult Blood test to your doctor. So far so good for us! Everything is normal.
Everyone here should establish a primary care doctor so that you can have the appropriate preventive medicine done for you. Without doubt, Frank is living proof that screening for colon cancer can save a life! So I hope each of you will schedule your annual screening with your doctor tomorrow morning. Then next month when we gather for another social, we can all report on the accomplishments of our screening. It's important to have a good support system. We can be that for each other. On that note, I think it is time to get the games going again!

text: I am totally loving and coveting so many looks from the J. Crew Spring 2013 RTW collection. The line's mix of charming prints, punchy and pastel colors, embroidery and brocade make for some really wearable pieces in my book. And I'm such a fan of their eclectic pattern mixing and signature tomboy meets feminine chic styling. While it's fun to swoon over all the luxurious designer collections, I also like to see what might realistically be making it into my closet come next Spring. These are some of my favorite looks. The rest can be viewed here. What did you think of this collection?

Geometrium Design Studio creates a design contemporary style Apartment in Izmailovo, in Moscow, Russia, for a mature family with 3 children. "The spaces were used neutral complex tones of brown and grey. There is an active grey wall in the living room. Children's room looks a little bit hipsterish because of usage of white brick in combination with bright accents of blue and yellow colors. This room is the only one, were used bright colors." explained the architect.

J.J. Watt feels as if he gets asked about Jadeveon Clowney every day.
When the Texans selected Clowney with the top overall pick, they instantly created what on paper looks like one of the league's most formidable pass rushes.
The two showed a glimpse of what they could do on the second play from scrimmage in last week's 32-0 loss in Arizona. Both charged from the right side and Watt sacked Carson Palmer.
Watt, however, did not want to read too much into the play. The Texans did nothing complicated, and Watt wasn't even paying attention to where Clowney lined up.
The Texans wrapped up two days of joint practices with Atlanta on Thursday. The teams meet in an exhibition game Saturday night.

since I'm of two minds. One one hand, I like that Batman's villains are so awesome that they a series three seasons and counting without the titular hero. I don't think any other hero's villains can do that.
On the other hand, I want to see Batman! I don't want to see a Batman series with everyone except him.
And teenage Bruce Wayne doesn't count.

I am a big fan of Shandy's in the summer and since we didn't have our usual ginger ale when we were craving them late one evening, we made this instead. We were worried that the concentrate would be too sweet, but it actually worked quite well and we have added it to our summer drink rotation. —Kelsey Banfield

ounces can limeade concentrate
ounces light rum

Thriving and Surviving the Morning Rush

I just wanted to say I'm so happy I found your site. I did baby wise with my first and it went really well though it was a lot of work at first but she was on a great schedule right away and things were so smooth I was ready for #2 when she was 6 months old! Then our second came along at 21 mths and I had felt bad for being quite so uptight about the scheduling and my surrounding family hubby included seems pretty opposed to the structure, the control and the organization I seem to love and thrive on, combine zero support in that area with a colic baby who I could not put on a schedule no matter how hard I tried and the doctors said to just hold her there was nothing I could do... And somehow all structure has left my life and I've been in a place of feeling very wrong for those needs of control and organization, struggling with depression and anxiety and have flat out been told by "helpful" people to not have things so under control or "perfect" except that my brain doesn't work that Way. My baby is now 3.5 and I am struggling to find a way to find some order and bring my home back under control! So thank you for your resources! I felt very lost after my second and couldn't find any resources anywhere on adding a second and finding some sanity and structure and what to expect etc

I am so glad you found it Amy! I am glad to help. You definitely need to do what feels natural and right to you as a mom. There is no one right way to be a mom for all women, but there is a way that is right for you.
Is the colic gone?

No one knows what tomorrow may bring which means we only have today. Of course, it is wise to plan for tomorrow, but pointless to lament over negative possibilities.
Everything we did yesterday and will do today affects tomorrow. I'm sure you've often heard that kindness begets kindness. Well, it is a saying based on reality. Humans have a basic good within them, but it must be nurtured. Selfishness is an evil that can stifle all the good and love out of any relationship similar to weeds in a flower garden. The best way to counteract the negative taking over is to be kind, thoughtful and caring for one another.
This isn't a new concept. Christians are taught to "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Others call it "The Golden Rule" or "Ethic of Reciprocity." It doesn't matter what name you give the practice as long as you just live it.
A simple act such as yielding for a merging car, allowing another customer with only one item to purchase move ahead of you in the check-out line, or smiling at a passerby are little ways to incorporate sincere and kind acts into your life.
The "pay off" usually appears when you least expect it and in a way you need it the most. This has happened to me many times before just as I'm sure it has to you also. Invest in your happiness – it's worth it.
from which the flowers
of tomorrow's happiness grow."

More often than not, people in this industry work ridiculous hours. It's not uncommon to find someone who works 80+ hour weeks in the summertime. It certainly isn't uncommon to find someone who does one 8 hour shift, and immediately goes to do another 8 hour shift. Even more commonplace than those two scenarios, it's not uncommon to work a long 12-14 hour day, and then get 4 hours of sleep (or less) and then get up to do it all again.
All these years I've wondered: "Why we do it to ourselves?"
The simple answer would be that it's for the money.
The not-so-simple answer would be that we have to. We have to because if we want to live in what was considered in 2010 to be the eighth most expensive city in the world to live in, we have to work our tails off just to be able to afford our expensive apartments, overpriced groceries, and our over-priced/under-serving transit system.
The issue doesn't stop there. The other issue is that I feel we are often under-valued. In any other industry/trade, if we worked as many hours, we would all be making six-figure income. So why the heck are we all making so little?
One problem I see is the fact that there unfortunately are so darn many of us. There's a number of "schools" that are pumping kids out of their $20,000+ programs at a rate that no market could possibly employ them all. This drives the value of all of us down. Why would anyone pay X when they can get Y for 33% less?
Of course the argument can be made of how well and efficient the person does the job. The answer there, unfortunately lies in the eyes of the beholder. How much is efficiency worth? Often times the rental of the venue is not handled by the production company – the production company strictly is responsible for paying for their transportation and labour, and the rest of the income from the production covers their overhead.
Let's say for example that a load out stacked with a stellar crew can get the gear out of the venue in 2.5 hours. 20 people are on the call, all at $25 per hour. Of course there is the lovely thing known as a minimum 4-hour call, so we're still all going to be charging for four hours, even though we pulled off the job in 2.5. We all consider this a nice little bonus to ourselves, right? 4x20x25 = $2000.
Now, let's make it so there are 2 people on the the load out as supervisors, and the other 18 are making $15 per hour. And since the 18 other crew aren't as experienced, the load out takes the full 4 hours. If you do the math that figure comes in at $1280.
So what will the company choose? They really don't care how long it takes because it's not costing them any extra. I think you can see how this tiny little example can be carried over into all areas.
Now here's the interesting question: how can we solve this problem of being undervalued?
Quite honestly, the only solution I see here is a solution that exists out there already, and I can't believe I'm going to say this: Unionize.
As long as these schools are going to keep pumping out 20 year olds at a rate that allows companies to perform a complete annual turnover of personnel, The only realistic solution could be unionization. I think I just threw up in my mouth a bit. I've always been anti-union, because they often result in one person losing accountability for their work, and as a result become more difficult to deal with on a daily basis.
But they get paid. And get paid well.
Have you been to a venue that has a union? All of the older guys bragging about how they make six figures? And the crazy thing of it all: they don't kill themselves with insanely long days, and when they do, they make even more money. That acts as a heck of a good way to make sure you aren't on the job too long, and if you are you get properly compensated.
Having said that unions are not immune to their fair share of issues either. Nobody likes doing productions in unionized venues. They're expensive, and drive the ticket prices through the roof as a result. But heck, I think you get medical coverage.
I think if companies valued their staff and treated them as well as possbile, said company would ultimately succeed. When someone is proud to work for a company, the job is done better as a result. Companies need to realize that 9 times out of 10 it doesn't matter what sound or lighting equipment you own, it's the people who deal with the clients, artist, and audience. If a glowing review comes into your inbox from a client bragging about how well the show went, do you think it's about the par-cans that you own, or the LD? Is it about your new hip digital console, or the person behind it? Good people make for a good product. Nickel and diming definitely has its place in this industry, but when you take from the people (or refuse to give to the people) what is fair just so they can maybe afford to take a vacation once a year, you end up taking from yourself, because one unhappy employee is poison, and when it's company wide, it's even worse.

The New York Times and other mass media publications have been publishing articles that downplay the dangers of radioactive fallout from nuclear disasters like the Fukushima and Chernobyl disasters. And the Environmental Protection Agency has now stopped testing air, water, and milk samples for radiation despite the continuing release of radioactive materials into the environment from Japan.
The Fukushima disaster has resulted in a nuclear meltdown that has no end in sight. That reactor is still spewing fallout into the ocean and the atmosphere. It may never be brought under control. Chernobyl is still leaking dangerous radioactive materials. Nuclear reactors are fundamentally unsafe. Every one of them is subject to a meltdown situation in multiple unforeseen and even predictable scenarios. Chernobyl resulted in at least one million deaths. How many will Fukushima claim?
And the New York Times pundits have the audacity to remind us that the atomic bomb tests of the 1950s resulted in more persistent radioactive fallout than these nuclear reactor disasters. And what about those decaying barrels of nuclear waste material dumped in the ocean, they ask. And the junked and sunk nuclear submarines in the deep abysses of our oceans. But the New York Times and other media fodder have an agenda – to promote the deadly nuclear energy program.
Everyone is being exposed to radioactive fallout, which is much more dangerous to you than natural sources of radiation. Don't be fooled by fancy graphs of the relative exposure from rocks and x-rays and reassurances about your exposure during airplane travel. Man made nuclear reactor disasters result in radioactive particles that animals ingest. These particles emit radiation. They lodge in body tissues of cows. They are passed through their milk. They enter our bodies through water and milk and rain. They persist in our bodies near vital organs and continue to emit radiation that damages cells and increases cancer risk.
Please be aware that seaweed, kelp, spirulina, chlorella, and other sea vegetable sources that chelate and detoxify radiation exposure may now be radioactive if they are produced in Japan. Some kelp sources have shown elevated levels of radioactivity. Fish and seaweed may be dangerous. Research your sources of these products. Call the manufacturer and ask about their monitoring for radioactivity. Then determine if you are satisfied with their assurances.[pinterest][follow id="FebicoHealth"] [button color="orange" size="big" link="http://store.febico.com" target="blank" ]Click Here For the Febico Store![/button]

Girl made Facebook page to get support from public
|source via:-facebook page, the girl is being harassed by a guy and have made a facebook page to get support from public
|source via:- facebook page, The girl is claiming that a man named Anmol Chandan is harassing her and she wants support to fight against him
The girl is claiming that she is being harassed by a guy who's name is "Anmol Chandan" where this guy is from and what does he do where he lives, we have no clue about it.
She has also posted some picture which are very disturbing.
After seeing this we as a normal citizen feel that the girl have not received proper justice and hence shes promoting this page for her justice.
So whatever may be the case but the photos seems to be real and are disturbing.
|source via:- facebook page, disturbing photos of the girl being hit by a man
|source via:-facebook page, she was hit by him very brutally without any mercy
Where only 180 people have liked the page but , if it would have been a celebrity page there may be millions of likes and share.
Share this post if you feel that this kind of harassment should stop on women's around the world.

Vintage photos of:
Washington, D.C., circa 1914. "Georgetown University Hospital graduating nurses." Harris & Ewing Collection glass negative. View full size.
As the grandson of the "sweet-faced young woman on the far left," I can verify that this is the Georgetown University Nursing School Class of 1914.
No lie. About a year ago I was in a ER at our local large city Hospital. I had a blood clot in my lungs caused by surgery the week before. I swear they all look just like these fine ladies but meaner.
Soooooooooooo! times have not changed over the years. BUT I was glad to have them they did save my life. Even though they scared the hell out of me. All kidding aside nurses save lives and I do appreciate them.I bet they were really pretty girls when they did smile though.
Instead of the usual "Everybody smile" that photographers usually blurt out before snapping the shutter, it looks like this one yelled "Tenj hup!" And as a token gesture, they're all holding their diplomas like rifles, but other than that, not showing much enthusiasm. As a matter of fact, they all look like they just finished a 12 hour shift.
First Row, extreme right: "Roll over please, tonight is enema night!"
I reviewed the Washington Post archives trying to find out information on this specific class of nurses. From 1908 to 1912, the Post published the names of all graduates and a short piece on the commencement speaker. After 1912, the commencement exercises were apparently not as newsworthy. Given the class size in the photo, it must be 1913 or later. Class sizes for the published years are: 1908 (5); 1909 (3); 1910 (3); 1911 (10); 1912 (11, the largest class to date).
Top row, second from left - nice mustache, dude.
I can't think of a single season in the DC area when this would have been a comfortable working uniform. I think they would be hot, sweaty, and chafe year-round for any nurse actually doing hard work bathing or moving a patient or running around a busy ward.
not to get sick.
I don't think I want the nurse in the front left to tend my health needs--she may be my number 1 fan!
Back in the days of yore when nurses wore white uniforms you could tell who was in charge in the wards. Today every employee in a hospital wears scrubs, so you can not tell if you are talking to a nurse, records clerk, or a custodian, or the lady who will groom my dog at the vet clinic, or the receptionist at the dentist. These starched white uniforms loudly proclaim authority and responsibility for patient care.
The local hospital just ran a pic of nurses in whites for National Nurses' Week. Brought back memories of my late aunt starching and ironing her caps. So much more professional looking.
The high stiff collars give a look like the faces are pasted on -- think intro to Monty Python's Flying Circus.
However, the two women in the back row wearing spectacles do look more intelligent.
That "sweet-faced young woman on the far left" looks more like, "Autoclave? Why bother, he's going to die someday anyway."
It makes me wonder if wearing neck rings was part of the training. Some of them look like they are ready to choke. And those bibs look to be absolutely bulletproof. If they could see the comfy "uniforms" that are worn now...
Quick, everybody look in a different direction!
Now that's a uniform! It doesn't look easy to work in -- indeed, would this be what they wore for everyday work? -- but the very sight of all that clean and pressed white cotton is reassuring. Most of them seem quite young, but they look so capable.
(Well, that sweet-faced young woman on the far left in front looks more like "Are we done yet? Can I go now?" But I feel that way about posing for group pictures myself.)
If you were really, really sick, which of these ladies would you prefer to see walking into your room? There are lots of choices such as efficient, kind, bossy and even clueless.

OpenSSO Community Day 2.0 – Munich – May 5 2009
You asked, we listened... the next OpenSSO Community Day is in Europe!
After I announced the NYC OpenSSO Community Day, one of the most frequently asked questions was "Can we do an OpenSSO community day near me?", with many requests coming from the other side of the Atlantic. So... we got together with our friends at Kuppinger Cole and are pleased to announce... OpenSSO Community Day 2.0!!!
Hosted by the European Identity Conference 2009 at the Deutsches Museum in Munich, Germany, and sponsored by Sun Microsystems, this is another opportunity for OpenSSO contributors, deployers and users to come together in an informal 'unconference' setting.
Being an unconference, the only rigid item on the agenda will be to decide at 9am on the sessions for the rest of the day. You can show up and talk about any OpenSSO-related topic you like. Maybe you have an interesting deployment, a new extension or a nagging question - sessions can be discussions as much as presentations. Now, that doesn't mean that there need be zero preparation - if you have a session in mind, go to the wiki and add it there, so folks can get an idea of the likely content ahead of time. We've already posted a few ideas.
All are welcome, attendance is free, and lunch will be provided. We'll likely adjourn to a nearby bar at the end of the day to continue the conversation 🙂
We're using meetup.com to manage the registration process - just join the OpenSSO group and RSVP!
