'Leave It on the Floor,' 'Bully' coming to ATL
Despite the recent focus on bullying in schools, many LGBT kids face their worst bullying at home. Take your pick from new films about these two kinds of bullying – or see both.
Old school meets new in "Leave It on the Floor," a refreshing musical set in the ball scene immortalized by Jennie Livingston in "Paris Is Burning," or at least its West Coast equivalent.
It begins when the mother of the teenaged protagonist, Brad (Ephraim Sykes), finds out he's gay and throws him out of the house. (It's OK. He steals her car.) Brad lands on his feet and discovers another kind of house in the ball scene, where his guide is Princess Eminence (Phillip Evelyn) of the House of Eminence.

Belgian authorities arrest 12 in anti-terror raids
Belgian authorities made 12 arrests in an anti-terror raid, nearly three months after the deadly bomb attacks on Brussels.
The 12 detainees were arrested on suspicion of plotting attacks within the country. They were among 40 people taken in for questioning.
Searches were conducted in 16 municipalities, mainly around Brussels, with checks on 152 lock-up garages.
No weapons or explosives were found so far.
Incidents Mar 2016
Recent terror events in Europe connected to Belgium
The 22nd March attacks in Brussels were the latest in a long list of terror incidents in Europe, tracing its origin to Belgium's jihadist networks.
They include Nov 2015 Paris attacks, masterminded by Belgian-born Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 2014 shooting at the Jewish museum in Brussels and the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January 2015.
Estimatedly, at least 470 Belgians went to fight for Islamists in Syria/Iraq.
Belgian fighters for Islamic state per million
For a small nation with a population of 11.2 million, Belgium has a ratio of 45 fighters per every 1 million citizens, fighting for Islamic State (ISIS). This is more than twice that of its neighbor France.
Brussels' Molenbeek, hot bed of terror
Molenbeek district, a densely populated part of Brussels, is notorious for its associations with jihadists. Belgian jihadism is concentrated here.
It is a neighborhood of nearly 100,000 people, which has had a large immigrant muslim population for many years.
Situated close to city center, Molenbeek reels in poverty, very high unemployment, complaints of inadequate government services and has acquired a reputation for lawlessness.
Existing terror networks in Belgium
Belgium has long-existing jihadi networks that became especially active as Western countries got involved in conflicts in the Middle East.
The existence of a number of well-organized salafi-jihadist networks, such as 'Sharia4Belgium' drove many individuals to fight for Islamic state.
Sharia4Belgium, set up in 2010, was crucial in spreading jihadism. It recruited dozens of young Belgians to travel to Syria and wage jihad.
Small size of security forces
Belgium's security force is very small and there is a huge gap between size of threat and security institutions. They are overwhelmed by number of radicalized people who pose threats to the country. Over the years, they struggled to penetrate the country's homegrown Islamist network
Segregation and lack of opportunity possible reasons
Some argue that the attraction towards violent jihad was because of socio-economic problems that young Muslims faced in places like Brussels.
Like in many places of Europe, Muslim immigrants are not fully integrated into the Belgian mainstream.
Lack of opportunities and feeling isolated from privileged parts of society coupled with a lack of knowledge about Islam also possibly attract young Belgians to jihadist recruiters.

Belgium charges 3 with 'attempted terrorist murder'
After raiding dozens of homes and detaining several individuals, Belgian police have charged three men with 'attempted terrorist murder'.
Identified as Samir C., Moustapha B. and Jawad B., they have also been charged with "participation in the activities of a terrorist group."
The raids were conducted as part of an ongoing operation in response to perceived threats to the Euro 2016 football tournament.
21 Jun 2016
Brussels would remain extremely vigilant: PM Charles Michel
With increased security, Brussels stayed on high-alert following the arrests of three people, including relatives El-Bakraoui brothers–22 March suicide bombers.
Officials charged three people with terrorism after raiding and detaining 40 people; the investigation reportedly required 'immediate intervention' as authorities feared a new attack.
The MVIB metro transportation stated that on authorities' request, the entry into six subway stations was reduced for safety reasons.
26 Jun 2016
Belgium charges 2 after terror raids
Belgium's federal prosecutor's office stated that two men were charged with terror related offences after overnight raids in Brussels.
The men allegedly planned to attack the Euro 2016 football championships.
Officials said they were charged as "perpetrator and co-perpetrator for participation in the activities of a terrorist organization."
However, officials said there were no weapons or explosives found.

It sounds like something out of a science-fiction movie, but bio-medical engineering students at the University of Minnesota are learning to make everything from ears, noses and blood vessels using a 3-D printer and biological material.
"Bio-printing is 3D printing," Angela Panoskaltsis-Mortari, with the Division of Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplantation at the University of Minnesota, said. You are printing in layers, one on top of the other, but instead of using plastics you are using biological materials as well as cells...so you are printing a living tissue."
Bio-printing is still in experimental stages, but someday soon it could be used for organ transplants, tissue engineering and reconstructive surgery.
U of M students are training for when that day arrives. In the lab they create models of noses, ears and blood vessels using gel-like substance that can contain proteins like collagen and stem cells.
Grad student Abby Van Dusen is in the lab because she is interested in a career in pharmaceuticals.
"I'm interested in drug delivery," she said. "Eventually you could test the drugs on actual human cells using this application."
"This will really revolutionize medicine," Panoskaltsis-Mortari said. "Some people say it will change it the way the internet changed communication."
This semester is the first time bio-printing has been offered at the U of M and it's the only class of its kind in the country right now.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if I have received a request for public information?
You will receive an email from Open Records notifying you of a received request, providing a copy of the part of the request that is relevant to you, and providing you a date by which you must respond. You will also receive the assigned number for the particular request.
What do I do if I think I will not be able to respond by the deadline provided?
Please contact Open Records as soon as possible. Sometimes we are able to extend deadlines and sometimes we are not. It depends on the request and the potential responsive records, but our 10-business-day deadline to respond to requestors must be strictly adhered to, or there may be legal implications.
What if I am an employee who has been asked to produce documents that I think may be confidential under the law?
If you are asked to provide information pursuant to a properly issued request, provide whatever you have that is responsive to the public information officer, even if you believe it should not be released to the requestor. The public information officer will make a determination, with input from the TAMUS Office of General Counsel, about whether a request for an exception will be made and the requestor will be notified. The university may not determine, on its own, to not release responsive information.
What is the Texas Public Information Act?
The Texas Public Information Act (the "Public Information Act" or the "Act"), is located in the Texas Government Code, Chapter 552. The Act provides a mechanism for citizens to inspect or receive copies of government records. It also provides for instances in which governmental bodies wish to, or are required by law to, withhold government records from the public.
What types of information are subject to the Texas Public Information Act?
Any information collected, assembled, or maintained by or for a governmental body is generally subject to the Texas Public Information Act. The format (paper, electronic, microfilm, etc.) of the record does not affect its status as a public record. The location in which the information is retained also does not affect its status as public information (employee's home computer, personal phone, USB drive, etc.) The governmental body does not, however, have to create or manipulate documents to respond to requests, nor must it answer questions.
What should I say in my public information request?
Your request should be as specific as possible to enable us to identify exactly what information you are requesting. Providing date ranges, individuals involved (if seeking emails), university offices you believe to be connected to the information, etc. are all helpful to our office in attempting to promptly respond. The university may respond with a clarifying request if we are unable to locate the records based on the initial request. If you do not know specifically what documents you are looking for, a request that states "I request records that demonstrate [insert information here]….." is better than asking a question. You must provide a method of written contact—email, fax or mailing address.
What is the cost of copies of public information? Rules for charges
How long does the university have to respond to my request for information?
The Act provides that a governmental body must respond promptly to a request for information. If we are unable to produce the requested information within 10 business days, we will contact you to let you know that we are unable to do so, and will set a date and time when the records will be available to you. This will include letting you know by the 10th business day if the university is seeking an open records decision to withhold any information
When may a university refuse to release the information I request?
If the information you request falls within one of the exceptions to disclosure found in the Texas Public Information Act, the university may refuse to release the information while it seeks an open records decision from the Office of Attorney General. Unless the governmental body has a previous determination from a court or the Attorney General regarding the precise information requested, a governmental body cannot determine on its own to withhold information.
How do I make a public information request?
Public information requests must be in writing and may be made by mail, email or fax. Email and fax requests, must be sent directly to the Open Records (Office of University Compliance). Another university department's receipt of an email or fax request will not be sufficient to initiate the university's required response. Departments receiving fax or email requests should not forward the request to the public information officer, but rather return it to the requestor with a notification about how to send it to the proper office.

Get parchment paper at the Perfection Bakery. They will sell you a bunch of sheets for five cents each. They usually don't count and I've always gotten a bundle for never more than a dollar.

Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...and Others Don't, by Jim Collins
Based on a five-year research project, Good to Great answers the question: Can a good company become a great company, and, if so, how? True to the rigorous research methodology and invigorating teaching style of Jim Collins, Good to Great teaches how even the dowdiest of companies can make the leap to outperform market leaders the likes of Coca-Cola, Intel, General Electric, and Merck. New York: HarperBusiness, 2001. 320 pages, 9 chapters.
Profit From the Core : Growth Strategy in an Era of Turbulence, by Chris Zook and James Allen
A 10-year-long Bain & Company study uncovered that only 10% of businesses achieved sustained growth and provided shareholder satisfaction. The authors argue that most companies veered off course from their core business into adjunct markets without redefining their core market strategy. Without clearly defined strategies, the move into adjunct businesses hurt, rather than helped, most companies. Chris Zook and James Allen say companies fare better when they concentrate on customer loyalty, channel dominance, product superiority and value. Chris Zook and James Allen, Harvard Business School Press, March 2001 .
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, by Stephen R. Covey
Effective Individuals Make an Effective Organization The key to an organizations success is the people. From the mailroom to the boardroom, it becomes more imperative that employees are effective, both personally and professionally. This book was a groundbreaker when it was first published in 1989, and it continues to be a business bestseller, with more than 10 million copies sold. Stephen Covey, an internationally respected leadership authority, realizes that true success encompasses a balance of personal and professional effectiveness, so this book is a manual for performing better in both arenas. His anecdotes are as frequently from family situations as from business challenges. Free Press, 1989.
The Experience Economy, by B. Joseph Pine & James Gilmore
In The Experience Economy, the authors argue that the service economy is about to be superseded with something that critics will find even more ephemeral (and controversial) than services ever were: experiences. In part because of technology and the increasing expectations of consumers, services today are starting to look like commodities. The authors write that "Those businesses that relegate themselves to the diminishing world of goods and services will be rendered irrelevant. To avoid this fate, you must learn to stage a rich, compelling experience." Harvard Business School Press, 1999.
The Balanced Scorecard: Translating Strategy into Action, by Robert S. Kaplan & David P. Norton
As running a corporate or government or not-for-profit enterprise becomes increasingly complicated, more sophisticated approaches are needed to implement strategy and measure performance. Purely financial evaluations of performance, for example, no longer suffice in a world where intangible assets relationships and capabilities increasingly determine the prospects for success. Kaplan, a Harvard Business School professor of accounting, and Norton, president of Renaissance Solutions, make a key contribution by describing and illustrating the balanced scorecard, a multidimensional approach to measuring corporate performance that incorporates both financial and non-financial factors. The concept of a balanced scorecard originated in a study group of 12 companies that met throughout 1990; since then, the authors have worked with several companies, including FMC Corporation, Brown & Root Energy Services, Mobil and CIGNA, to create scorecards and use them as a systematic means to implement new organizational strategy. Though still in the preliminary stages of development, balanced scorecards could represent the emergence of a new era of management sophistication, in which both the hard and soft variables of work life are taken into account in a rigorous, testable fashion. Kaplan and Norton provide an excellent, though dry, introduction to a new methodology of management. Harvard Business School Press, 1996.

If your eyes have unexpectedly changed from bright white to red, you might be experiencing red eye. At Galleria Vision Center in Dallas, Texas, Youngson Joe, OD is committed to providing immediate relief to men and women suffering from red eyes. Through a comprehensive diagnosis, Dr. Joe can determine whether you're having a reaction to irritants or whether the redness is part of a more significant issue. Contact the office by phone or online today to learn more about the treatment of red eye.
Having red eyes is a pervasive issue that can affect one or both eyes. When blood vessels on the surface of the eye expand– or dilate– because of irritation or infection, the white part of your eye starts to redden.
Red eye can be caused by a variety of irritations, infections, and diseases. The redness typically stems from the dilation of the blood cells between the sclera and the conjunctiva.
Environmental or lifestyle-related factors– such as airborne allergens, pollution, smoke, dry air, dust, or overexposure to sunlight– can induce swelling in these blood vessels and cause redness.
The most common causes of red eye are allergies, dryness, fatigue due to digital strain, contact lens overuse, or pink eye. However, red eye can also be a sign of severe diseases, like glaucoma, uveitis, or corneal ulcers.
You might also experience red eye following trauma, injury, or as a side effect of eye surgery like LASIK or other cosmetic procedures.
Dr. Joe recommends a series of at-home remedies in addition to doctor-prescribed solutions to alleviate your red eye symptoms.
While you wait for your appointment at Galleria Vision Center, it's recommended that you apply a warm or cool compress around the affected eye to keep it at a stable temperature. Compresses will increase blood flow in the eye, create lubrication, and relieve swelling and itchiness. You might also consider over-the-counter artificial tears to keep your eye hydrated and avoid dryness.
In most cases, however, Dr. Joe will prescribe eye drops or medication to treat your symptoms.
While red eye can at first seem like an issue that doesn't require medical attention, it's important to realize that your symptoms can drastically and quickly worsen, leading to any of the following:
You should contact Galleria Vision Center immediately if you experience any of the above symptoms, as this could mean that your red eye is related to a more significant, dangerous condition. Additionally, you should call Dr. Joe if you have a known history of red eye and pain.
Red eye should not be left untreated. Not only is it unpleasant, but it's also potentially dangerous for the overall health of your eyes. Go online or call the office today to book an appointment with Dr. Joe.

Homemade Overnight Cinnamon Rolls
The dough:
1 package yeast or 1 tablespoon
1 cup warm milk (I just heat mine in the microwave)
2 eggs
1/3 cup melted butter
4 1/2 - 5 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white sugar
Mix in order given. Dough should be sticky, not too stiff like bread dough. Place in a greased bowl to rise about 1 hour. I usually turn my oven on to warm for a minute, turn it off and then put the dough in the oven covered with a damp cloth. When double in size roll on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Spread with 1/3 cup softened butter. In a small bowl mix 1 cup brown sugar with 2 1/2 Tablespoons cinnamon. Sprinkled over buttered dough. Starting at the long end, roll the dough tightly. Pinch the seam to secure. Cut into 12 rolls and place rolls in a 9x13 greased pan. The rolls should be touching (I did 8 in a 9x13 pan and then 4 in an 8x8 pan). Cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge overnight. In the morning, let the rolls sit at room temperature for 30-45 minutes. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes (do not over bake - you want your rolls soft and gooey). Frost with Cream Cheese frosting while still warm.
Frosting - beat until smooth the following:
1 package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla.

text: I looked forward to my retreat but on Day 1, I already wanted to leave, and that feeling got stronger on Days 2 and 3, remaining throughout the course. Goenka said there would be a great deal of resistance, and the mind and body would revolt due to this alien situation, so I kept that in mind. However, I found it exceptionally difficult. Not necessarily the silence, the lack of food and sleep and lack of any entertainment or distraction (though these were definitely difficult), but the apparent busyness and negativity of the mind, that would just not shut up. I felt persecuted by the people around me, judged, imprisoned. I judged everyone harshly, never a positive comment even though deep down I didn't believe those things, the mind just kept throwing negativity at me and sometimes it took my breath away. It was negative about everything, including my looks and I became preoccupied with looking in the mirror and finding fault, thinking I was getting old and planning ways to make myself prettier. Remaining in the present moment seemed near-impossible, with my mind wondering what was going on in the outside world and yearning for time to pass. The only time I felt present was when I was walking in nature, seeing the birds, looking at the sky. At almost all other times I was striving for something I couldn't have: freedom, contact with the outside world, food, a quiet mind. I also had many songs playing in my head, sometimes without me even noticing, and many memories surfacing from the past. It was quite discreet, but I would find myself remembering very random and specific things I haven't thought about in years: some difficult, some neutral. On one occasion, I cried and cried for the young 11 year old girl I was when my parents separated and had a very nasty divorce. I felt so badly for her and promised to protect her.

More than 400 parents are set to receive some amount of child support from the state of Nebraska, according to a report from the Omaha World-Herald. The state is issuing $250,292 in child support to the parents. The offer of money will come from the state Department of Health and Human Services. Letters will be sent out to the parents who are set to receive the money.
What is parenting time interference in Indiana?
When a couple with children gets divorced, a parenting agreement is created to make the custody arrangement as easy as possible on all parties involved. The agreement is made when the parents share custody of their children. The agreement can be informal, but should be approved by a court in order to enforce them if issues arise. When the agreement is not followed, either maliciously or by mistake, it can be interpreted as parenting time interference.

Allan Bloom's translation of The Republic, highly recommended by Fr James Schall, is available online at the Internet Archive.

Fine, I'll do it myself
My employer recently gave me a huge unexpected bonus upon my fifteenth anniversary of employment with them, so we bought a Nexus 7 tablet. Since it arrived I've been terribly busy downloading books! My current read is James Schall's Another Sort of Learning [book, website], which is basically a guide to all the books you need. And in downloading and perusing hundreds of ebooks, I've found the essential problem with them: they're hard to navigate. The Project Gutenberg Complete Shakespeare, for example, has no table of contents at all. Some ebook apps will attempt to build a table of contents but the results aren't much more useful than blind browsing.
So, I'm hatching a project: given a Project Gutenberg text, convert it into a fully-usable and easy-to-navigate ebook.

The latest medical developments in the world of breast cancer and cancer, from Google Alerts, for the week ending 5 September 2014.
Last week's Best of Breast (w/e 29 August 2014) covered the controversy over whether cancer is curable or not. Now, I know there are many people who are in long-term remission, but remission is not a cure. The current thinking is that cancer is a chronic disease, it may go into latent mode, but it may re-surface years later.
This week seems to be the week of the metastasis – scientists are discovering more ways in which cancer cells cannily inveigle themselves into other parts of the body. It's nothing new … there have been similar discoveries every week, every month, every year. The problem seems to be putting this research into practice and finding ways of blocking the proteins or enzymes or rogue signalling-pathways that cause cancer to metastasise.
1. Stopping cancer from forming tentacles stops metastasis
- To spread, or "metastasize," cancer cells must enter the blood stream or lymph system, travel through its channels, and then exit to another area or organ in the body.
- This final exit is the least understood part of the metastatic process.
- Previous research has shown cancer cells are capable of producing "invadopodia," a type of extension that cells use to probe and change their environment.
- However, until recently, their significance in the escape of cancer cells from the bloodstream has been unclear.
- In the study, the scientists injected fluorescent cancer cells into the bloodstream of test models, and then captured the fate of these cells using high-resolution time-lapse imaging.
- Results confirmed the cancer cells formed invadopodia to reach out of the bloodstream and into the tissue of the surrounding organs – they essentially formed "tentacles" that enabled the tumor cell to enter the organ.
- However, through genetic modification or drug treatment, the scientists were able to block the factors needed for invadopodia to form. This effectively stopped all attempts for the cancer to spread.
- The study findings confirm invadopodia play a key role in the spread of cancer. Most importantly, they suggest an important new target for therapy. If a drug can be developed to prevent invadopodia from forming, it could potentially stop the spread of cancer.
For more information: Cell Reports, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2014.07.050, Invadopodia Are Required for Cancer Cell Extravasation and Are a Therapeutic Target for Metastasis
2. 'Prepped' by tumor cells, lymphatic cells encourage breast cancer cells to spread
- Breast cancer cells can lay the groundwork for their own spread throughout the body by coaxing cells within lymphatic vessels to send out tumor-welcoming signals, according to a new report by Johns Hopkins scientists.
- The researchers describe animal and cell-culture experiments that show increased levels of so-called signaling molecules released by breast cancer cells.
- These molecules cause lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in the lungs and lymph nodes to produce proteins called CCL5 and VEGF.
- CCL5 attracts tumor cells to the lungs and lymph nodes, and VEGF increases the number of blood vessels and makes them more porous, allowing tumor cells to metastasize and infiltrate the lungs.
- In the same report, the researchers say maraviroc, a drug already approved for treating HIV infection, blocked the siren call of CCL5 in tests on animals and cells and prevented tumor spread (metastasis).
- Additional experiments using a combination of maraviroc and a drug that blocks the VEGF protein suggest that the treatment duo could be an effective way to prevent metastatic disease in human breast cancer patients, according to the researchers.
- Popel and colleagues traced the influence of tumor signaling on LECs in cell cultures and in mice.
- Breast cancer cells were bathed in a nutrient-rich liquid, and, as the cancer cells grew, the investigators detected secretions of a signaling molecule called interleukin-6 (IL6) in the liquid.
- Mice that were injected with the IL6-containing liquid experienced a continual rise in CCL5 levels in blood samples for several weeks. Nine of 10 tumor-bearing mice injected with the IL6-laden liquid developed metastases five weeks later. Only two of 10 mice, exposed to the liquid and given a combination of maraviroc and a VEGF-blocking drug, developed metastases.
- Because maraviroc blocks the actions of CCL5, it could be delivered, along with standard chemotherapy, right after surgically removing a tumor in a bid to prevent any leftover circulating tumor cells from finding a new metastatic niche in the body, Popel says.
- "However, IL6-secreting tumors could be laying the groundwork for metastasis much earlier than surgery occurs in a patient," he said. "To prevent metastatic sites from taking root, we could administer drugs that block IL6 before surgery."
For more information: Nature Communications 5, Article number: 4715doi:10.1038/ ncomms5715, Breast cancer cells condition lymphatic endothelial cells within pre-metastatic niches to promote metastasis
3. Enzyme Controlling Metastasis of Breast Cancer Identified
- Researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine have identified an enzyme that controls the spread of breast cancer.
- The enzyme, called UBC13, was found to be present in breast cancer cells at two to three times the levels of normal healthy cells.
- Although the enzyme's role in regulating normal cell growth and healthy immune system function is well-documented, the study is among the first to show a link to the spread of breast cancer.
- The enzyme regulates cancer cells' ability to transmit signals that stimulate cell growth and survival by regulating the activity of a protein called p38 which when "knocked down" prevents metastasis.
- Of clinical note, the researchers said a compound that inhibits the activation of p38 is already being tested for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
- In their experiments, scientists took human breast cancer cell lines and used a lentivirus to silence the expression of both the UBC13 and p38 proteins.
- These altered cancer cells were then injected into the mammary tissues of mice.
- Although the primary tumours grew in these mice, their cancers did not spread.

4. Loss of LKB1 disrupts breast epithelial cell polarity and promotes breast cancer metastasis and invasion
- LKB1, also known as STK11, is a master kinase that serves as an energy metabolic sensor and is involved in cell polarity regulation.
- Recent studies have indicated that LKB1 is related to breast tumorigenesis and breast cancer progression.
- Low expression of LKB1 was significantly associated with established markers of unfavorable breast cancer prognosis, such as loss of ER/PR, E-cadherin and HMW-CK.
For more information: Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research 2014, 33:70, Loss of LKB1 disrupts breast epithelial cell polarity and promotes breast cancer metastasis and invasion
5. Strong link between high fat diets, intestinal bacteria, and bowel cancer
- The study points to bacteria playing a central role in the development and growth of bowel tumours.
- Working with mice, the researchers showed that fatty food shifted the composition of gut flora – the diverse population of bacteria that inhabit the digestive tract.
- This in turn reduced the level of immune system defences against cancer.
- The effect was seen in non-obese mice with a mutant version of a gene called Kras that is known to be associated with human bowel cancer.
- Treatment to wipe out the bacteria or mimic the presence of protective "friendly" bugs was found to slow down tumour progression.
- "Diet-associated cancer development may be based on marked shifts in bacterial communities rather than on the development of obesity and metabolic disorder.
- "Thus, personalised dietary interventions might allow an individual's microbiota (flora) to be modulated to promote health, especially in those who are at a high risk because of genetic susceptibility and a high fat intake."
- Another discovery was that bowel cancer could be "transmitted" via bacteria-laden faecal samples.
- When the samples from mice with bowel tumours were transferred to other healthy animals with the Kras mutation, this was enough to trigger cancer even in the absence of a high fat diet.
- Treating mice with bowel cancer with antibiotics to kill their gut bacteria led to a slowdown in tumour progression.
- The same effect followed treatment with butyrate, a fatty acid produced in the gut by the fermenting action of "friendly" bacteria.
- Butyrate is a widely available supplement said to benefit people with inflammatory bowel conditions such as Crohn's disease.

6. Prognostic Value of Circulating Tumor Cells after Chemotherapy in Early Breast Cancer
- The detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has been shown to predict reduced survival outcomes in metastatic breast cancer but not in the earlier stage of disease—until now.
In a new study, CTCs were analyzed in 2,026 patients before adjuvant chemotherapy and in 1,492 patients after chemotherapy for early breast cancer.
CTCs were defined as nucleated cells expressing cytokeratin and lacking CD45.
Before chemotherapy, CTCs were detected in 21.5% of patients, with 19.6% of node-negative, and 22.4% of node-positive patients showing CTCs.
No association was found with tumor size, grading, or hormone receptor status.
After chemotherapy, 22.1% of patients (330 of 1,493) were CTC-positive.
The presence of CTCs was associated with poor disease-free survival (DFS), distant DFS, breast cancer–specific survival, and overall survival.
Additionally, CTCs were confirmed as independent prognostic markers in multivariable analyses.
The prognosis was the worst in patients with 5 or more CTCs per 30 mL blood.
The presence of persisting CTCs after chemotherapy showed a negative influence on Disease-Free Survival (DFS)
These results are described as the first to suggest the independent prognostic relevance of CTCs both before and after adjuvant chemotherapy in a large prospective trial of patients with primary breast cancer.

7. ASCO Updates Guidelines for HER2-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer
- The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) has updated its clinical practice guideline on both targeted therapies and chemotherapy treatment for women with HER2-negative breast cancer, which makes up approximately 80% of all breast cancers diagnosed in the United States.
- According to the guideline, hormonal therapy, rather than chemotherapy, is the preferred first-line therapy for patients with estrogen receptor–positive metastatic breast cancer, except in cases of immediate life-threatening disease or when a patient is suspected to be resistant to hormonal treatment.
- Subsequent therapy should consist of sequential chemotherapy.
- There is no single agent that is preferred as a first-line or later-line therapy.
- Rather, the decision should be based on patient factors, including prior therapies, toxicity, performance status, comorbidities, and the patient's preference.
- It was also stressed that the role of bevacizumab for breast cancer is still controversial
8. Molecular pump solves issue of how to get enough drug into tumor without harming normal cells
- Researchers have invented a microscopic pump that has the potential to transport cancer drugs from the blood into the heart of tumors, according to a new study.
- The pump is created from an engineered antibody that attaches to a protein found in microscopic pouches lining the walls of blood vessels in mouse, rat and human tumors.
- Substances attached to this antibody are transported from the blood through the vessel wall into the tumor's interior.
- The study provides a proof of concept that the pump works in lung, mammary and prostate tumors.
- Next, more animal studies must be performed testing that the technology is therapeutically useful in animals — and eventually in people, said lead researcher Jan Schnitzer of the Proteogenomics Research Institute for Systems Medicine in San Diego.

9. Radiotherapy trial: once-weekly breast radiation following lumpectomy as successful as daily radiation
- Traditionally, American doctors have favored the standard regimen of small daily radiation doses after lumpectomy for cancer control.
- But day-to-day radiation for a period of six to seven weeks can cause great inconvenience to the patients with regard to the associated costs.
- Breast cancer oncologists have recently devised a regimen that involves only once-weekly breast radiation following lumpectomy, instead of the standard practice of daily radiation.
- The interim results of the five-year Phase 2 clinical trial using the experimental regimen shows better completion results at lower costs and the same cosmetic results as daily radiation therapy.
- This new regimen reduces the total treatment time by about one-fourth to one-third of the current daily-treatment.
- Since insurers reimburse on a per-radiation basis, this regimen also lowers costs.

10. Neoadjuvant Regimen Beneficial in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
- Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with a poorer prognosis than other types of breast cancer.
- A recent study investigated the addition of carboplatin, bevacizumab or their combination to conventional anthracyline- and taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in 443 patients with stage II to III TNBC.
The authors concluded that the addition of either carboplatin or bevacizumab to NACT increased pCR rates in stage II to III TNBC, but that further research is required to characterize the effect of this regimen on relapse-free or overall survival.

Abstract: Due to its high electrical conductivity and excellent transmittance at terahertz frequencies, graphene is a promising candidate as transparent electrodes for terahertz devices. We demonstrate a liquid crystal based terahertz phase shifter with the graphene films as transparent electrodes. The maximum phase shift is 10.8 degree and the saturation voltage is 5 V with a 50 µm liquid crystal cell. The transmittance at terahertz frequencies and electrical conductivity depending on the number
of graphene layer are also investigated. The proposed phase shifter provides a continuous tunability, fully electrical controllability, and low DC voltage operation.

Yeah. So, that's what the cardiovascular surgeon said to us when he remembered to tell us about the condition of my father's three(!) bypasses. Basically, my dad's heart has created its own bypass by growing a huge vein from the left side of his heart to feed the right side. It's not the ideal situation, but it's working for now. They say he'll be going on (more) medication to regulate his heartbeat and that a 3rd open-heart surgery is our last option after all others have failed.
He also had some laser surgery on the 14″ of blocked vein in his left leg — they got alllllll the way through to within 2mm(!) of breaking through and then…they had to stop. The vascular surgeon said they had to stop because they didn't want to keep him in there any longer than the 4+ hours he already endured…too risky. Oh, and the last 2mm of calcification is usually very dense and hard to break through so it would take much longer to get through than the rest of it. He seemed just as frustrated as we were in hearing the news.
So now, it's all about time and more surgeries and living more healthfully.These are the days when I wish I lived closer to my parents. It's also a wake-up call for me…after all, I have the tendency to have all these health problems myself…yikes.
Thanks for "listening". Your support and well-wishes have really helped a lot! I promise to post happier topics next time… :)

More Info
One morning in 2000, Dr. Jane Hightower walked into her exam room to find a patient with disturbing symptoms she couldn't explain. The woman was nauseated, tired, and had difficulty concentrating, but a litany of tests revealed no apparent cause. She was not alone. Dr. Hightower saw numerous patients with similar, inexplicable ailments, and eventually learned that there were many more around the nation and the world. They had little in common--except a healthy appetite for certain fish.
Dr. Hightower's quest for answers led her to mercury, a poison that has been plaguing victims for centuries and is now showing up in seafood. But this "explanation" opened a Pandora's Box of thornier questions. Why did some fish from supermarkets and restaurants contain such high levels of a powerful poison? Why did the FDA base its recommendations for "safe" mercury consumption on data supplied by Saddam Hussein's Ba'athist extremists? And why wasn't the government warning its citizens?
In "Diagnosis: Mercury," Dr. Hightower retraces her investigation into the modern prevalence of mercury poisoning, revealing how political calculations, dubious studies, and industry lobbyists endanger our health. While mercury is a naturally occurring element, she learns there's much that is unnatural about this poison's prevalence in our seafood. Mercury is pumped into the air by coal-fired power plants and settles in our rivers and oceans, and has been dumped into our waterways by industry. It accumulates in the fish we eat, and ultimately in our own bodies. Yet government agencies and lawmakers have been slow to regulate pollution or even alert consumers. Why? The trail of evidence leads to Canada, Japan, Iraq, and various U.S. institutions, and as Dr. Hightower puts the pieces together, she discovers questionable connections between ostensibly objective researchers and industries that fear regulation and bad press. Her tenacious inquiry sheds light on a system in which, too often, money trumps good science and responsible government. Exposing a threat that few recognize but that touches many, "Diagnosis: Mercury "should be required reading for everyone who cares about their health.

|After not very much due diligence we have learned Mr. Duncan's first name is "Robert" or "Bert" to some of his closest friends.
Canada Carbon quotes five messages that Mr. Cooper allegedly posted on Stockhouse under the alias "Doobyus" in late 2013. They include one from Sept. 19, 2013, that called the company a "balloon filled with hot air." It stated that people who had "bought this dog will wish they hadnt" and that investors are "being fooled into thinking it will all magically turn into a mine." The post advised not to "look for the people running the show right now because they'll be long long gone with your money."
BCSC lawyers charge $ 600 per hour plus, and triple that for court time. ANY lawsuit has the potential to cost six figures and far more than that if its a complete loss. Shareholder resources CONTINUALLY being throw away is what this abject stupidity is. It describes this Venture management perfectly.
|Hardy the Fork Har Har Har says we, and whenever this massive rush for dead worthless paper materializes hell would have surely frozen over.
We cannot guess at the number of BCSC actions by Venture mutts against internet posters over the past few years. Dozens, certainly.
"Phone Lines Are Open All:
For the next 3 hours feel free to contact me at 905-813-8408 or my counsel at 604-691-6864. The lines are open. I believe it is important to bring some reality to Ms. Smith's assertions that I do not exist. Hopefully Ms. Smith and her non-existent sister will get a reality check. The lines are now open for Ms. Smith's intervention.
Bruce Duncan, CEO Canada CArbon Inc.
On January 19th, 2014 I was the beneficiary of a threatening inbox from WoolyBully. I had responded to that inbox copying my counsel and placed WoolyBully on ignore. This is being dealt with.

Natalie Dormer quotes and sayings
I'm quite physical. I'm from one of those dog-walking families where hiking up a mountain is meant to be fun.
Natalie Dormer quotes
- I'm very lucky to be in projects that have such skilled writing in them.
- I've been insane from a very early age.
- I've been spoiled rotten with the costumes I've worn.
- I've been told that N.Y. in the spring is pretty special.
- I've never been far from the river. I'm sort of like a Thames-nymph.
- I've played a lot of elegance and refinement, so to do something really down and dirty is a great attraction.
- I've taken my clothes off enough in my career.
- If there's 'game' in the title, I'm there! Ready to play!
- It really bugs me the way people criticise how actors look. We're not models. Models exist.
