BSABRCAN
Number of biological sons under 50 when first diagnosed with brain cancer
BSABRCAN is a two-digit count variable.
For sample adults with at least one biological son (BSNUM) who ever had brain cancer (BSBRCAN), BSABRCAN reports the number of the respondent's biological sons who were under 50 years of age when the brain cancer was first diagnosed.
BSABRCAN is one of a series of related variables in the "Family History" section of the 2000, 2005, and 2010 Cancer Modules. In all years, this section begins with the general comment:
According to the 2000 and 2005 Field Representative's Manuals, the purpose of this and other family cancer history questions is to "determine the prevalence of cancer in families in the population" to "allow a greater understanding of how data obtained from genetics clinics can be applied to the general population." The 2010 and later Manuals provide a similar rationale, stating that the collection of this data "will allow analysts a greater understanding of how family history relates to cancer."
BSABRCAN is fully comparable between 2005 and 2010.
BSABRCAN is largely comparable between 2000 and 2005/2010, though there may be some difference in the meaning of "refused," "not ascertained," and "don't know" as used in 2000 compared to the meanings of those terms in 2005 and 2010.
The Survey Descriptions for all three years caution that while "all sample adults were to be asked the questions in the Cancer Control Module, some persons did not complete the supplement." However, whereas in 2000, persons who answered less than 50 percent of the questions in the supplement had a value of "not ascertained" automatically inserted in the appropriate fields of the Cancer Control Module file, in both 2005 and 2010, persons who answered none of the questions in the supplement had a value of "not ascertained" automatically inserted in the appropriate fields of the Cancer Control Module file.
2000; 2005; 2010: Sample adults age 18+ whose son(s) ever had brain cancer.

In the past decade open surgical procedures have been partly replaced by the widespread introduction of laparoscopic and endoscopic techniques. Similar changes have affected vascular surgery, with the development of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for peripheral atherosclerotic disease. Until recently, the treatment of abdominal aneurysms had relied solely on surgical exposure of the aneurysm and direct graft replacement. However, the recent advent of endovascular aortic aneurysm repair has offered an alternative to conventional surgical practice. This new technique has been enthusiastically endorsed by vascular surgeons worldwide.
Endovascular aneurysm repair involves the transfemoral or transiliac placement of a endograft within the aneurysm, with the aim of completely excluding the aneurysm sac from the circulation. The endograft is anchored in place by self expanding or balloon expandable stents, which may support all or part of the graft. The advantages of this technique are principally related to the absence of surgical exposure of the aorta and avoidance of aortic cross clamping, which are both obligatory during direct graft replacement.
The less invasive nature of endovascular aneurysm repair therefore has the potential to reduce the mortality and morbidity of conventional aortic procedures and may offer an opportunity to treat patients with severe coexistent pathologies, who are denied conventional aneurysm repair. Unfortunately, endovascular techniques are not applicable to all patients with abdominal aneurysms, as a short length of normal aorta is required below the renal arteries to facilitate effective fixation of the endograft.
1. The minimally invasive approach used in endovascular aneurysm surgery allows for an easier recovery for the patient.
2. Many patients are able to have the surgery under epidural anesthesia and leave the hospital the very next day.
3. Blood transfusion is no longer needed.
4. Dr. Aybek's team has excellent short-term and long-term endovascular repair results, including the lowest complication rate and a zero mortality rate.
What are the risks of endovascular aneurysm surgery?
Vascular surgery places a patient at slight risk of bleeding and blood clots. The experience and expertise of NYU's vascular surgeons render these complications rare.

Q: Changing value of an array with function call Suppose i have an array
int x[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};

And a function
   int at(int p[],const int i){
   return p[i];
   }

and i'm trying to get access to the elements such as
cout << at(x,4);//works fine,output is 5
cin >> at(x,3);// error

I know it's returning the constant of that index only, and we can't change the constants. So is there some way to somehow modify this function to get full access for the array's elements, to be able change the values on specified index.

A: Simply change the function to return a reference instead. Change this:
int at(int p[],const int i){

To this:
int &at(int p[], const int i) {

I know it's returning the constant of that index only, and we can't
  change the constants.

That's not the problem. The issue is that if the function returns just an int, then you are returning an rvalue. cin >> however requires an lvalue, which is an object that is stored in an identifiable place in the memory. x[3] is such an lvalue, and by returning a reference to that, we are returning such an lvalue. By just returning an int, we would have only returned a copy of the value in x[3] and that copy wouldn't have an address, it is gone at the end of the statement.

Bernal Díaz del Castillo (1496-1584)
Bernal Díaz del Castillo (c. 1496 – January 11, 1584) was a Spanish conquistador, who participated as a soldier in the conquest of Mexico under Hernán Cortés and late in his life wrote an account of the events. As an experienced soldier of fortune, he had already participated in expeditions to Tierra Firme, Cuba, and to Yucatán before joining Cortés. In his later years he was an encomendero and governor in Guatemala where he wrote his memoirs called The True History of the Conquest of New Spain. He began his account of the conquest almost thirty years after the events and later revised and expanded it in response to the biography published by Cortes's chaplain Francisco López de Gómara, which he considered to be largely inaccurate in that it did not give due recognition to the efforts and sacrifices of others in the Spanish expedition.

Harvest Butternut Squash Kale Salad with Farro is a hearty fall salad tossed in a sweet, tangy apple cider dijon dressing!
I was a child of the 70's, so there were more canned fruits and vegetables in my life than fresh produce. I'm not complaining because I loved produce any way that it was served to me, and I happily ate my siblings' shares too if they didn't want them.
Now that I've dated myself, I'll get to the point. Naturally times have changed, and it's reflected in the way that I eat today.
When I was younger, "organic", "local" and "sustainable" weren't household words. There was never a choice to buy organic that I remember, and I'm so glad that's changed because buying organic is so important to me now.
When I eat salads like this Harvest Butternut Squash Kale Salad with Farro, I feel good knowing that the main ingredients are from Earthbound Farm Organic.
I had the privilege of visiting a few of Earthbound Farm Organic farms to learn about organic farming practices, how crops are harvested, and more about the company in general.
I've been a big fan of the company for years, but after visiting the farms and spending time with the CEO and many of the company's employees, I'm even more impressed.
What sets Earthbound Farm Organic apart is that 100% of its products are certified organic and carry the certified organic seal. The commitment to exclusively grow organic started with its founders Drew and Myra Goodman 30+ years ago and it has never wavered.
This company is so passionate about cultivating land that provides quality organic products for its consumers and for the betterment of the environment.
In fact, company management specified that while they would love everyone to purchase their products, they stressed the importance of buying organic as a whole, whether it be from the store, farmers markets or from them.
We've all heard the saying "leave the earth better than we found it", and growing organic is the way that we can achieve that.
The soil on an organic farm is thicker and richer because its nutrient-dense, and it holds water better, which is ideal in drought conditions.
Organic farming requires plenty of passion as it's so much harder than conventional farming. It takes 3 years to establish an organic farm, and once certified, the farm and its suppliers are subject to annual audits.
Over 1,000 synthetic pesticides are used in conventional farming, but only a small toolbox of 24 allowed natural substances may be used by organic farms only when all other methods have failed.
Farmers walk the fields daily to ensure the health of the crops, and adjustments must be made in a timely manner or the entire crop may be lost. There is no recipe for organic farming…experience is key.
I could go on and on about why buying organic is important, and I'm so grateful to Earthbound Farm Organic and other organic farmers that go the extra mile to grow quality produce that's better for me and the world that I live in.
This Harvest Butternut Squash Kale Salad with Farro was a salad that I created during a salad competition at the Earthbound Farm Stand.
Many of ingredients that were available to us were picked from the garden on site and some were prepared by the farm stand chef.
That garden is the garden of my dreams, and if you're ever in the Carmel Valley I highly recommend visiting this beautiful place. I truly never wanted to leave.
As soon as I saw roasted butternut squash, farro and cranberries on the table, I knew exactly what type of salad that I was going to make.
My salad was enjoyed by all at lunch along with the other creations, and I knew I wanted to share it with you.
This Harvest Butternut Squash and Kale Salad with Farro is even easier to prepare with Earthbound Farm Organic Baby Kale and frozen Butternut Squash.
I love using dinosaur or curly kale in salads, but Earthbound Farm Organic Baby Kale is the simplest alternative. It's triple washed and there's no massaging necessary as the leaves are more tender than other varieties of kale.
The frozen butternut squash is a huge time saver! Simply separate the frozen squash and toss in olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast at 425 degrees for 20-30 minutes until tender and golden brown and cool slightly.
The frozen butternut squash may also be prepared according to package instructions to make salad prep go even faster.
This harvest salad wouldn't be complete without the apple cider dijon dressing! The dressing is tangy, flavorful and the perfect complement to all of the ingredients in this salad.
I've been eating this salad almost non-stop for the past month and a half. The colors and flavors are just perfect for this time of year, and it's perfect as a side dish for dinner parties, holidays and even your meal prep lunches.
This Harvest Butternut Squash Kale Salad with Farro is the perfect fall feel-good food. It's good for the planet and it's good for you.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Toss the frozen squash with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, then separate and spread in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.. Roast for 20-30 minutes or until tender and golden brown. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Place all ingredients in a mason jar and cover tightly with a lid. Shake vigorously until emulsified, then taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
Place the baby kale, butternut squash, farro, apple, dried cranberries and pepitas in a large bowl. Add the desired amount of dressing and toss well to coat.
Nutrition information was calculated using My Fitness Pal and is meant to be an estimate only. The numbers will vary based on the quantity consumed, brands used and substitutions that are made. This information includes half of the salad dressing and no added salt.
Instead of roasting the squash, you can save time by cooking the squash according to the package instructions.
Make this a mason jar salad! Layer ingredients in a mason jar from the bottom up in this order: dressing, farro, squash, apple, cranberries, baby kale and pepitas.
I bought pre-toasted pepitas at Trader Joe's. Toast your own by spreading out in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes.
I love all your salads Marcie, but this one is especially lovely! It's light and fresh, with all the perfect fall elements. And that frozen squash really does sound like a time saver. Chopping squash is so time consuming!
That looks like such a fun farm trip!! That's so cool you got that opportunity. 🙂 And this GORGEOUS salad!! This is totally Thanksgiving worthy with all that squash and grain goodness and I totally want this on our menu!
Earthbound is such an awesome company! How wonderful that you got to visit their farm. This salad looks absolutely perfect and so much better than canned spinach, lol!

Q: Can't connect to Postgres container with Docker Compose from Sequelize I can't connect to the default Postgres image from a separate docker service running node & Sequelize.
I'm assuming that my setup of the container is not correct and also perhaps my connection info is incorrect too because I when I run docker-compose --build I cannot connect to my database using the connection info:
Host: 0.0.0.0
Port: 5432
User: guy
Password: password

The error message is
Unable to connect to the database: { SequelizeConnectionRefusedError: connect ECONNREFUSED 0.0.0.0:5432

# Define the services/containers to be run

I originally made this recipe from My Kitchen Cafe to go along with her Italian Meatball Subs. I made them again yesterday, just trying to get some practice in (I have a long way to go when it comes to baking still), and although they turned out much better than the sub rolls from the night before (which still tasted great, just didn't look pretty), hers are much prettier (see them here)! The good news is that any bread recipe that I can follow get a yummy result with, you can too :-). One of these days I'll get it down!
*Can freeze the rolls after baking – microwave on high for 2 minutes before serving.
When I saw this on Sarah's blog, I really, really wanted to try it, but I was a little nervous. It has some fancy ingredients and if I had just seen it in a cookbook I probably would have passed it off as too complicated, but thankfully Sarah made me brave enough to try it! I even called her from the grocery store to see if I was getting the right chile...I think it's pretty funny that we had not actually spoken on the phone for nearly 5 years and a dried chile finally got me to call :-). It was worth it! The flavor the chile gives the broth of this soup is AMAZING.
L-O-V-E this soup and will make it again and again!
2.Heat the oil in a medium (4-quart) saucepan over medium-high. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 7 minutes. Scoop up the onion and garlic with a slotted spoon, pressing them against the side of the pan to leave behind as much oil as possible, and transfer to the blender. Process until smooth.
3.Return the pan to medium-high heat. When quite hot, add the puree and stir nearly constantly, until thickened to the consistency of tomato paste, about 6 minutes. Add the broth and epazote, if using. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes. Taste and season with salt, usually about a generous teaspoon (depending on the saltiness of the broth).
4.Just before serving, add the chicken to the simmering broth. Divide the avocado, cheese and tortilla chips between serving bowls. When the chicken is done, usually about 5 minutes, ladle the soup into the bowls. Garnish with the crema. Pass the lime separately.
I actually tried this recipe the very day I saw it posted on The Sister's Cafe! At Christmas time my friend Amy gave us a jar of THE most delicious chocolate sauce EVER, but the recipe is top secret so I have been left wanting some for months :-). When I saw this is sounded like the same idea and I couldn't wait to try it. It is simple AND delicious...almost as good as Amy's, and definitely enough to scratch the itch until she's ready to share her secret :-)!
Put butter and cream in a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until cream is hot. Do NOT BOIL. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Let it melt then whisk until smooth and add vanilla.
The May 2010 issue of Cooking Light featured a series of risotto recipes and this is the one that I was most excited to try. It was my first time trying risotto and I'm ready to try another now...especially since I have the rice I need for it! This one was SO good! The crunchy bacon was the highlight and I loved the rich flavor the different mushrooms added to it. Tasty!!!
-Bring Homemade Chicken Stock to a simmer in a small saucepan (do not boil); keep warm over low heat.
-Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add bacon to pan; cook 8 minutes or until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove bacon from pan with a slotted spoon.
-Add shallots, oil, thyme, and garlic to drippings in pan; cook 6 minutes or until shallots are tender, stirring occasionally.
-Stir in mushrooms; cook 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-Add rice, and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
-Stir in Madeira; cook 1 minute or until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly.
-Stir in 1 cup stock; cook 4 minutes or until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly.
-Add remaining stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each portion of stock is absorbed before adding the next (about 25 minutes total).
-Stir in spinach; cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in cheese, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle with bacon.
1. Add chicken breasts to Crock pot.
2. Add black beans, salsa, and corn.
3. Cook on Low 6 to 8 hours, or until chicken is cooked through.
4. Add cream cheese and cook for 30 more minutes. Stir to combine.
I remember loving this gravy type sauce when my mom made it growing up. My grandma has had the recipe forever and despite the picture above, you are supposed to serve it over toasted, buttered English muffins (like below). I quickly took the pictures below on Easter and didn't like how they turned out so I took another one with some of the leftovers yesterday, but we only had regular bread. The nice thing about this recipe is that you can put it all in the crock pot and it's ready to serve when you are. And it is SOOO good :-)!
-In a large bowl, combine bread, asparagus, ham and cheese.
-Whisk egg whites, eggs, milk, lemon juice and garlic powder; pour over the bread mixture and stir until blended.
-Transfer to a 13x9 baking dish coated with cooking spray.
-Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
-Uncover and bake 8-10 minutes longer or until knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Aren't family recipes THE best?! Tried and true and tasty. This is Mike's mom's lasagna recipe and it was Delicious...my first ever lasanga attempt was a success! It makes A LOT of lasagna though, so be prepared. I used 3 separate 8x8 dishes, which worked out well for me (1 for Mike and the girls, 1 to share with a friend, and 1 using gluten free Penne noodles for me and Preston). If you don't have a humongo dish, I think a 9x13 and an 8x8 would do the trick.
*Boil water for 1 lb pkg lasagna pasta noodles and cook as directed.
*Mix all of the above and fry in a pan. Break up meat as it cooks so there aren't big chunks.
*Bake at 400 for 20-30 minutes, until hot in center.

SXSW 2017 Review: INFINITY BABY
By Jan Hamilton
In the not too distant future, a new corporation has developed the ultimate product: a baby that never grows up, and needs only minimal care. For some reason, the corporation pays the parents to take the baby. In this black and white film, Larry (Kevin Corrigan) and Malcolm (Martin Starr) play a gay couple who work for the baby company, and because of a cancellation, they end up taking in an infant. Larry just seems to be interested in the money they will receive, but Malcolm seems truly committed to being a parent. An unforeseen tragedy occurs, but with miraculous results.
In a parallel story, the audience meets Ben (Kieran Culkin) a young man who wants to be in a relationship, and then wants to move on. He has even hired Hester (Megan Mullally) to pretend to be his disapproving mother. When he wants to end the relationship, he brings the women to meet her and she gives them reasons why they are not suitable for her son. One of the girlfriends he brings home (Trieste Kelly Dunn) is so great that Hester refuses to find fault with her, spoiling Ben's plans. While this movie is not "laugh out loud" funny, it has a unique plot, with a cast who does a great job.
The Bottom Line: Some good spots in an uneven film, you may find it to your liking.

SXSW 2017 Review: FITS AND STARTS
SXSW 2017 Review: LANE 1974


I'm going to write about a holiday which changed my life. In the year 1998 my friends Celia and Esther went to India and invited me to go with them. They were going to adopt their second daughter, Meda. They had adopted their first daughter two years before.
We went to the Orissa State, it is on the east coast of India below Calcutta. The Capital of Orissa is Bhubaneswar. The orphanage was in Bhubaneswar, and we met with Meda there. After that we continued our trip to Udayagiri, in the mountain. This place is a tribal zone where villages are very small and have few inhabitants. There I learned about the deep India. people live in poverty, they don't have the bare necessities of live, they can't even find something to eat every day.
In this trip we had been thinking of setting up an NGO to get money to help those people. One year later we created Amigos de SMSS (Friends of Subhadra Mahatab Seva Sadan). Since we started working, we have been developing some projects. At the moment we have a hostel housing about 300 children, more girls than boys but also women who are widows or whose husbands abandoned them. The children's expenses are all covered, including education, and now we are also trying to prepare them to get a job. Women look after these children, they cook for them, do their laundry, etc. We have got a big building which is a primary school and now we are going to begin the construction of another building for secondary school. We also have 50 small schools in 50 tiny villages, and a Health Centre with two doctors, one of them is an ayurveda doctor and the other is a conventional GP. The ayurveda doctor works with plants, uses plants to treat illnesses. We are lucky because there are Spanish people who volunteer in this Health Centre as dentists, nurses, cholera researchers, you see this is a place of endemic cholera.
A residence for girls so they can go to high school -- at the moment, the girls have to walk four kilometres from their houses to high school. We fundraised in Spain and have just got enough money to begin this building.
A residence for the doctors and nurses, near the health centre.
A mango tree plantation. In this area there isn't any fruit, and we think this is important for people's health.
A microcredit program in tribal areas.
Our main problem is to fundraise for the maintenance of children and to pay doctors, teachers, nurses, etc. their monthly salary, so we need to set up fundraising campaigns, so we are selling clothes, diaries, etc.
If you want to learn more about Friends of SMSS or buy some of our products, you can visit our website at http://www.amigossmss.org or send an email to: Mercedes [ AT ] sonifolk.com, or amigos.smss [ AT ] telefonica.net.
Any assistance or ideas are welcome!


Kensal Park PS - Thames Valley District School Board - Who Is NOBODY?
My name is Madison. I am a grade 3 student participating in the "Nobody Project" in my classroom.
Nobody is a cloth doll with no features. He has no clothes and no face. He is just a blank person. The object of this project is to make Nobody a somebody. Each student in the class has to choose their own unique project and add something to Nobody to make it a somebody. After all, everybody is a somebody.
Our projects have to be something that helps others. We can volunteer or do a fundraising project. By doing this I will learn how special it is to help other people. I like doing that.
I have chosen to help Operation Smile. They do wonderful work for children all around the world.
Operation Smile and Doctors without Borders helps these children. For as little as $240, they can provide a cleft lip or cleft palate surgery. This surgery can change a child's life forever and can take as little as 45 minutes.
I really like that his organization fixes the smiles of little children. Thousands of children are waiting to have the happy life that they deserve. Together we can make a difference. You and I can put a wonderful smile on a child. I am going to try and raise $1200. That would be enough money to help 5 children. Every little bit helps!
At the end of this project I will give Nobody a smile to wear. He and the children we help deserve that!
I hope you'll help me bring hope and new smiles to children suffering from facial deformities.

Voting now open for SiriusXM's Top of the Country Competition
Calling all Canadian country music fans! Voting now open for SiriusXM's Top of the Country competition
Help decide who will vie for $25,000 and major showcase opportunities
TORONTO – June 2, 2022 – SiriusXM Canada is inviting Canadians to help choose the next big star in country music as voting opens for the fourth annual SiriusXM Top of the Country competition, in partnership with the Canadian Country Music Association® (CCMA). The public will decide which of the eight semi-finalists will make it to the final three, to perform at some of Canada's biggest country music events, embark on an exclusive songwriting trip and compete for the grand prize of $25,000.
Tyler Joe Miller of Surrey, BC, solidified his place as one of Canada's most loved country musicians when he was named the 2021 SiriusXM Top of the Country winner. "I have always loved performing and will be forever grateful for SiriusXM's Top of the Country competition that gave me an opportunity to realize my dreams," said Miller. "Having the support of Canadian music fans was exhilarating and I'll never forget it."
The 2022 SiriusXM Top of the Country semi-finalists are:

Five Roses (Montreal, QC)
Josh Ross (Waterdown, ON)

Beginning at 10 a.m. ET today through June 14, country lovers can watch the recordings and cast their votes daily for their favourite artist at siriusxm.ca/topcountry.
"Canada has a country music talent pool that is overflowing with potential and our eight semi-finalists all have star power," said Jeff Leake, Director, Music, Podcasts & Listenership Analytics, SiriusXM Canada. "Country music fans are in for a treat as they discover some impressive talent and vote for their favourite new artists. Their support will help determine who will be fighting for the title of Canada's next winner of SiriusXM's Top of the Country."

Men with advanced prostate cancer could benefit from 'amazing' immunotherapy trial
by Ruby West
in Health Care
— Jun 6, 2018
Aspherical 47,000 males are identified with prostate most cancers annually within the United Kingdom, with 11,631 deaths from the illness.
"If we can prove that in the planned new trial, it should be possible to provide some men with advanced prostate cancer with an exciting new treatment option".
Michael English, 72, was one of 258 men who took part in the trial.
"Today I'm effectively cancer-free".
Pembrolizumab, also known by its brand name Keytruda, is one of a new class of drugs called "checkpoint inhibitors".
He said: "We were astonished when scans showed that the tumour had become undetectable".
He says he's now planning out the next 20 years of his life, not the next two.
Eleni Efstathiou, MD, and colleagues at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, studied 197 patients with M0HNPC randomly assigned to receive AA plus leuprolide (99 men) for 8 months or leuprolide alone (98 men). Black patients experienced higher rates of several hormonal-based toxicities, such as hyperglycemia, hypokalemia, and hot flashes, "suggesting perhaps a greater exposure risk to this medicine", George said.

The city is serving as the host for the CFP National Championship, which will be played later that day at Levi's Stadium. He must have been a head coach for a minimum of 10 years and coached at least 100 games with a.600 winning percentage.
Jordan protests resume despite resignation of embattled prime minister
The latest protests started last week when unions called for nationwide demonstrations. The measures have sparked some of the biggest economic protests in five years.
Lava from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano destroys hundreds of homes overnight
The eruption has also been triggering earthquakes , including a 5.5-magnitude tremor early Tuesday morning at Kilauea's summit. To date, the coastline has been extended 0.7 miles, and lava continues to fountain from fissure 8, the source of the flow.
In addition, he said, "This research shows that by providing equal access to treatment, we can reduce racial disparities in outcomes for men with advanced prostate cancer".
However, he said that only between 10% and 15% of patients had any response to the therapy at all.
That is not unusual for immunotherapy. However, the researchers were expecting it, since immunotherapy only works for some patients.
The researchers from London think that patients that have heavily-mutated cancer respond better to immunotherapy.
Nell Barrie, from Cancer Research UK, said: "The next step will be to find out how to tell which men will benefit from taking this drug". As a result, there is insufficient evidence about possible differences in treatment efficacy and side effects by race.
Immunotherapy drugs work by stimulating the immune system to recognise and fight the cancer, and are used to treat some advanced cancers, including lung and melanoma.
The recent study with a drug named pembrolizumab was worked out with those who are at the very advanced stage of the prostate cancer. It is an IgG4 isotype antibody that blocks a protective mechanism of cancer cells, and allows the immune system to destroy those cancer cells. The team presented their findings in Chicago, where cancer doctors and scientists go to the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology.

Early user interface prototypes for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive began when Hidden Path Entertainment attempted to port Counter-Strike: Source to consoles until Valve decided to turn it into a full game. The game was internally known as Counter-Strike 1.5 (not to be confused with the beta release of the original mod for Half-Life with the same title) until it was renamed. These images, published by Hidden Path Entertainment artist Mark Forrer, show us the early user interface prototypes and Valve's original ideas for the game.
The game was to have a full character customization system which included selectable character gender, head type, skin tone, eye color, and camo face paint. In addition to that, there were cosmetic items that could be equipped including selectable helmet or hats, clothes for the upper and lower body, and an insignia. The final game features only weapon and glove skin customization. The images also show a split screen mode, the original names for the weapons, early versions of the maps, and unused character artwork. While left unused, some of these menu images were included in the files of the final game.
Reactions: Reconciliation
The in-game UI was also cluttered as hell apparently.
Thankfully this never went through, though I wonder what CS:GO could be like with that level of customization on release.
I can't quite guess what reaction the community would have.

Kennedy publicly rejected the idea that he had failed to get a mandate. "The margin is narrow, but the responsibility is clear," he said. "There may be difficul-ties with the Congress, but a margin of only one vote would still be a mandate." Nonetheless, Kennedy conducted himself with an acute awareness of the closeness of his win and of the tenuousness of his congressional majority. In the weeks following his election, he took care to appear above partisanship, thereby to reassure the country. His first two announced appointees were incumbents whom he retained in their jobs, Allen Dulles, director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Several weeks later Kennedy chose C. Douglas Dillon, the incumbent under secretary of state, who had contributed money to the Nixon campaign, as secretary of the treasury. Kennedy made a well-publicized and unusual visit to Nixon several days after the election. In addition, he publicly thanked Eisenhower for his cooperation and assistance in the transition, which was marked by a cordiality sometimes lacking in the past, and he revealed that he had asked Eisenhower if he would be available for assignments in his administration.
Kennedy's decision to postpone promised civil rights legislation reflected his recognition of congressional realities. He did not want to alienate southern Democrats, whose support he needed in other areas. Given the makeup of Congress, it would have been a futile gesture to seek civil rights legislation in 1961 anyway.
Within the space of a few months, Kennedy transformed himself from a president-elect without a clear mandate to a highly popular incumbent who raised public expectations of the office. The most visible moment in this transformation came with his inauguration itself, where the contrast between him and Eisenhower could not have been more striking. Eisenhower was the oldest man to occupy the presidency until that time; Kennedy, at forty-three, was the youngest person ever elected president. Eisenhower was the last president born in the nineteenth century; Kennedy was the first born in the twentieth. Eisenhower had been the great World War II commander, and Kennedy, a mere junior officer. Eisenhower had grandchildren; Kennedy had a three-year-old daughter and a son who was born between election and inauguration. Eisenhower had taken care not to endanger his personal popularity by taking on divisive causes and had practiced a kind of indirect leadership, so indirect as often to be undetectable; Kennedy advocated that the president be at the center of the action.
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans, born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility; I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it, and the glow from the fire can truly light the world.
Kennedy embraced a universalistic conception of the country's international responsibilities that his successor and the Vietnam War's critics alike cited as a major reason for America's involvement in the war. "Let every nation know," he asserted, "whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." Yet even in this tough-sounding speech, Kennedy declared an interest in opening a dialogue with the Soviet Union to relax tensions and reduce the chance of war. "Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate," he said in one of his most famous contrapuntal sentences. He also promised to help the world's poor help themselves "not because the Communists may be doing it . . . but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich." To Latin Americans, he offered a special pledge, "a new alliance for progress, to assist free men and free governments in casting off the chains of poverty."
Just as the inauguration and the inaugural address were studies in contrast, so too was the mood Kennedy set in his first months in office. Kennedy painted a sober, even grim picture of the world as he found it. Things were worse, he said, than he had expected, America's defenses were weaker, its position in certain international situations in greater jeopardy. Yet that sobriety was countered by his youth, vigor, self-confidence, and wit. He flooded Congress with requests, held frequent and impressive press conferences, and proposed bold new national goals, the most important of which was met—to place a man on the moon before the decade was out. "Above all, Kennedy held out such promise of hope," Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., the historian who served as his assistant, wrote. "Intelligence at last was being applied to public affairs. Euphoria reigned; we thought for a moment that the world was plastic and the future unlimited."
Kennedy made an important innovation upon becoming president when he allowed press conferences to be televised live. He used these conferences to communicate directly with the public, which was immediately impressed with his personality, poise, and knowledge of government. As of May 1961, three out of four adults surveyed had seen at least one of his press conferences, and 91 percent had formed a favorable impression of Kennedy from them. The live press conference became Kennedy's communications forte. None of his successors has felt it possible to abandon the practice, though none has done as well by it. Here was a leading example of Kennedy's permanent effect on the presidency and public expectations of it.
Another demanding legacy Kennedy bequeathed his successors lay in press relations. Kennedy, who had been a reporter briefly himself, followed the press closely, had friends among journalists, and sometimes sought the advice of certain columnists and reporters. Kennedy's immediate successors, Johnson and Nixon, each believed that the press had been infatuated with Kennedy and had treated him with kid gloves, in contrast to the rough treatment they received. In fact, Kennedy received a normal amount of criticism in print and collided with the press on news management (which Kennedy practiced), press self-censorship (which he advocated), and other matters. Like all presidents, he was pleased when he received praise in the press and unhappy when he received criticism. But the fact that his successors forgot the clashes and criticism suggests that Kennedy was at least highly successful in creating merely the impression of good press relations, which may be almost as good as the reality.
Kennedy paid attention to the nation's culture. He honored leading writers, artists, poets, and musicians, and invited them to the White House. The recognition of artistic excellence fit Kennedy's expansive view of the president as the promoter of excellence in virtually all areas of the nation's life. Sympathetic to contemporary intellectual criticisms of mass culture, he appointed as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission Newton Minow, who promptly told the nation's broadcasters that if they ever watched television from morning to night, "I can assure you that you will observe a vast wasteland." At Kennedy's behest, the federal government began to provide aid for educational television. Kennedy also sought to raise aesthetic standards in the design of federal buildings and promoted historic preservation. Not surprisingly, the nation's cultural elite tended to return Kennedy's flattery and then some. Lewis Mumford, for example, in 1964 called Kennedy "the first American President to give art, literature and music a place of dignity in the national life." This was an exaggeration, but Kennedy did set an influential precedent for his immediate successors.
President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy stand by the White House Christmas tree in the main entrance hall of the White House, 12 December 1962.
embarked on careers in government and politics, which Kennedy gave a respectability and appeal they had usually lacked. Partly as a result of his influence, television news and public affairs broadcasting expanded dramatically.
The social questioning that Kennedy sanctioned and encouraged led some people to ideological conclusions that Kennedy rejected. His presidency saw a rise in both radical and conservative movements, but Kennedy was comfortable with neither extreme. He was not even comfortable with liberalism, though he counted many liberals as his allies and though he espoused many liberal programs. Kennedy described himself as an "idealist without illusions." He was a pragmatist and problem solver who perceived the limitations, as well as the possibilities, of presidential power. As a politician, he worried about his reelection and about how Congress and the public received his suggestions. He believed that many problems called out for new and essentially technical solutions. The central issues of our time, Kennedy said in a speech at Yale in 1962, "relate not to basic clashes of philosophy or ideology but to ways and means of reaching common goals." Kennedy declared, "What we need is not labels and clichés but more basic discussion of the sophisticated and technical issues involved in keeping a great economic machinery moving ahead."
Liberals sometimes faulted Kennedy for being too rational and cool. They wanted a more passionate and feeling leadership than he usually projected. They hoped he would mount the "bully pulpit," as Theodore Roosevelt described it, to preach to the public and rally it behind just causes. Kennedy certainly liked to think of himself as a leader, but as a practical politician he was disinclined to lead futile crusades. The most compelling moral cause of Kennedy's years as president was civil rights, and it is therefore worth looking at his handling of it in some detail.


More information: For over forty years Gordon has enjoyed the well-deserved reputation as one of Britain's greatest guitar players. He made his first recordings in the 1960s as a folk artist, but by late 70s he had crossed into the Progressive Rock genre. A trio of albums on the Electric Records label earned Gordon much praise and an ever-increasing fan base. In 1979 the album "The Peacock Party" was released on the PVK label. The tunes by Gordon are based on characters from the book "The Peacock Party" written by George E Ryder and illustrated by Alan Aldridge. This was a sequel to the somewhat better known "Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast". Aldridge designed many well-known covers for rock albums in the 1970s including "Captain Fantastic and The Dirt Brown Cowboy" for Elton John.
"THE PEACOCK PARTY" saw Gordon backed by a band of outstanding musicians such as JOHN G. PERRY (Bass), ROD EDWARDS (keyboards), RIC SANDERS (violin) and IAN MOSLEY (drums) and featured many outstanding tracks.
This edition is newly remastered from the original tapes and includes four bonus tracks. The reissue also features a lavishly illustrated booklet with new essay and interview.

According to our recent survey, over half of people searching for water treatment solutions in the Treasure Coast area are concerned about the taste of the water and contamination.
Let's be honest. The water in Port St. Lucie can taste horrible. Between heavy chlorination and the miles of pipe city water must travel through before reaching your home, you think you're drinking from a pool instead of your faucet. The rocks & minerals the water has dissolved can cause well water to taste metallic and gritty. Water testing lets you know what's causing the distaste regardless of your water supply.
Hard water causes spots on glassware & shower doors, corrodes water-using appliances, and makes your hair and skin dry and brittle. Depending on the hardness of your water, the size of your home, and your family's water consumption, there are a variety of treatment options. A water test will provide you the information you need to find the right size solution for your home and budget.
Regardless of whether you're on city water or well water, contamination can be a real concern. We can test for many common contaminants on-site or you can have your water analyzed at our nationally accredited laboratory. From arsenic to nitrates, organics to heavy metals, our lab has the ability to tell you what's in your water AND let you know by what percentage certain treatment options can improve your water.
Bring a sample of your water in to our office in a clean water bottle.
Call or fill out the form below to have a sample collected for you and we'll call you with the results.
Have your water tested on-site by a skilled professional water expert who can also provide with solution options.
If you'd like a detailed analysis ask us to collect a sample of your water to send to our national lab for testing.
Culligan has been around since 1936 and we've been in the Treasure Coast area for 39 years. You cannot serve a community for that long unless you take care of your customers.
It's much cheaper for us to test your water and give you the proper equipment the first time compared to if we had to go back to correct it. The loss not only in our time and labor, but in goodwill, would far outweigh our costs involved with a water test in your home.

Abstract—The performance of gearless servo drives is significantly degraded by mechanical resonances in the system. For applications the parameters of the mechanical resonances of a drive are not known a priori. In order to improve the identification process of resonance frequencies this article introduces a simple and efficient real-time capable algorithm to detect multiple resonance frequencies in a single identification run. The algorithm will be implemented using a digital signal processor which runs on a frequency inverter. It uses the frequency neighborhood to compute peaks. The performance of the algorithm is shown with a synthetic multisine signal and a measurement on a machine, where a workpiece is mounted on a direct torque round table.

Hussain Sajwani is a Dubai billionaire that owns and founded DAMAC Properties. He has lived his whole life in Dubai and has made his living there. He graduated from the University of Washington and quickly went to work learning about construction and property value. With his savvy ability, he founded DAMAC and has never looked back. In a recent interview, the DAMAC owner said that turmoil in the Middle East is actually good for property in Dubai.
Hussain Sajwani was interviewed by CNBC and said that when turmoil has happened in the Middle East it is good for Dubai. The DAMAC owner stated two prime examples. The first example comes from the conflict between Iraq and Iran that been occurring for many years. He said it was good in that case because people from both countries would emigrate to Dubai in order to be safe. During an eight-year period where the war was intense, the trade increased dramatically between Dubai and Iran.
Hussain Sajwani points out another example. This occurred in the early 1990's when Iraq invaded Kuwait under Saddam Hussein. He points out that many Kuwaitis fled the country and came to Dubai to start over again. More than seventy thousand people came to Dubai. The DAMAC owner said that this was a good move for Dubai because property values have increased and that makes him one of the most lucrative property owners in the world today.
A final example that Hussian Sajwani points out is the collapse of Somalia. More than thirty-five thousand people migrated to Dubai due to the close proximity of the country and their security. The majority of Somalis that live in the region have started their own businesses increasing property values even more.
This proves that Hussian Sajwani is one of the savviest men in the business. It proves the old adage about location, location, and location. Dubai is the perfect spot to directly benefit from the battles in the Middle East. It is in the perfect place and position to help those who need the help the most. Hussain Sajwani definitely knows that.

Line 3 Tar Sands Pipeline Challenged in Court: Youth, Environmentalists, Indigenous Rights Advocates sue to block Enbridge pipeline
Parent Category: News
SAINT PAUL, MN -- Today, opponents of the Line 3 tar sands pipeline filed multiple lawsuits with the Court of Appeals challenging the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) approval of the project. On June 28, the PUC approved Enbridge's proposal to build a new Line 3 pipeline, which would run through Northern Minnesota and double the amount of oil running through the pipeline. The window to file an appeal opened on November 21, following the PUC doubling down on its decision by rejecting requests from intervenors to reconsider issuing the permits for the pipeline.
Appeals were filed December 19th, 2018 by Honor the Earth, the Sierra Club, Friends of the Headwaters, Red Lake Band, and White Earth Band. The Youth Climate Intervenors plan to file their own appeal by the end of the week.
Friends of the Headwaters (FOH), an all-volunteer group from northern Minnesota, won the appeals case in 2015 that resulted in an Environmental Impact Statement being prepared for Line 3, precipitating the cancellation of Enbridge's Sandpiper pipeline. FOH contends that the PUC should have heeded the recommendations of the Administrative Law Judge and Minnesota's lead environmental agencies.
"Even the Department of Commerce determined that Enbridge's Line 3 was unnecessary," said Richard Smith, President of Friends of the Headwaters. "The Department of Commerce was the agency the PUC relied on to examine the Enbridge application in depth, and the DOC said a new Line 3 was not needed. But the PUC put the interests of the Canadian tar sands industry ahead of the interests of Minnesota citizens and the preservation of our environment. We can't just let that stand. The PUC's decision was contrary to the law, and we are confident that is what the Court of Appeals will conclude."
A joint appeal was filed by Honor the Earth, the Red Lake Band, the White Earth Band, and the Sierra Club. They argue that Enbridge's application is insufficient because the company never submitted the required oil demand forecast, ignoring current trends toward climate policy and electric vehicle adoption that could reduce the future need for the pipeline.
"Honor the Earth is appealing this decision because it is a rogue decision.- There is no need for this pipeline as the world reduces oil consumption in the face of increasing climate change," said Winona LaDuke, executive director of Honor the Earth. "The certificate of need was issued based on bad math and puts Minnesotans into a very dangerous situation in terms of liability. Now the 'need' is for a transition away from fossil fuels."
"If the PUC had done an adequate review of Line 3, it would have been clear that this pipeline is not needed and that the risks to our water, communities, and climate far outweigh any possible benefit," said Margaret Levin, State Director for the Sierra Club North Star Chapter. "Minnesotans deserve better than Enbridge's dirty tar sands pipeline, and today we continue the fight to ensure that it is never built."
The Youth Climate Intervenors are a unique group of 13 young people under 25 who have represented themselves in the legal process for the last year and a half, bringing in climate scientists and Indigenous elders to make the case that Line 3 would threaten their future by increasing production of tar sands, the dirtiest and most climate-polluting fuel source on the planet. They are now being represented by student attorneys with University of Minnesota's Environmental and Energy Law Clinic to bring their case to the Court of Appeals.
"For over 500 years we have been fighting for our land and people, and the bottom line is that our futures are at stake with this pipeline," said Nina Berglund, a 19 year-old Northern Cheyenne and Oglala Lakota woman and member of the Youth Climate Intervenors. "We refuse to accept defeat at the hands of these greedy corporations and we will never stop fighting."
Other groups may file additional appeals before the Friday, December 21 deadline for legal challenges to the Certificate of Need granted by the Public Utilities Commission. Enbridge has stated that they hope to have all the permits necessary to begin construction by early 2019.
