Lung Cancer Health Center
Lung Cancer - Treatment Overview
Dealing with your emotions
If you have been recently diagnosed with lung cancer, you may feel denial, anger, and grief. Reactions vary from person to person. Talk to your doctor about steps you can take to help with your emotional reactions.
If you are having a hard time moving forward with your life, talk with your doctor. Your cancer treatment center may offer counseling services. You may also contact your local chapter of the American Cancer Society to help you find a support group.
Having cancer can change your life in many ways. For support in managing these changes, see the topic Getting Support When You Have Cancer.
Follow-up care
After initial treatment for lung cancer, it is important to receive follow-up care.
- Your oncologist will schedule regular checkups, usually every 3 to 4 months, depending on the therapies used in initial treatment. After 2 to 3 years, regular checkups will occur less often but more than just once a year, depending on your medical history.
- Checkups may include a physical exam, blood tests, chest X-rays, CT scans, or other laboratory tests recommended by your oncologist.
Clinical trials
You may be interested in participating in research studies called clinical trials. Clinical trials are based on the most up-to-date information and are designed to find better ways to treat people who have cancer.
People who do not want standard treatments or are not cured by standard treatments may want to participate in clinical trials. These are ongoing in most parts of the United States and in some other countries around the world for all stages of lung cancer.

Distinct 'fairy rings' consisting of narrow fringes of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) expand radially over a bottom of chalk plates outside the calcium carbonate cliffs of the island of Møn, Denmark. We conducted a survey to evaluate possible explanations for the formation of the rings and, more specifically, for the apparent die-off of eelgrass shoots on the inner side of the rings. The fairy rings were up to 15 m in diameter consisting of 0.3- to 1-m-wide zones of sea grass shoots at densities of up to 1,200 shoots m−2 and rooted in an up to 10-cm-thick sediment layer. On the outer side, shoots expanded over the bare chalk plates. On the inner side, shoots were smaller, had lower absolute and specific leaf growth, shoot density was lower and the sediment eroded leaving the bare chalk with scattered boulders behind. Sediment organic matter and nutrients and tissue nutrient contents were not different among positions. Sediment pools of acid volatile sulfides and chromium-reducible sulfur increased from outer to the middle positions of the rings, and so did total sulfur content of eelgrass tissues, while tissue δ34S isotope ratios, regardless of position in the fringes, were low reflecting substantial invasion of sulfide from the sediment. Neither the clonal growth pattern of eelgrass, sediment burial of shoots, hydrodynamic forcing nor nutrient limitation could explain the ring-shaped pattern. We conclude that the most likely explanation must be found in invasion of eelgrass shoots by toxic sulfide accumulating in the sediment due to low iron availability in the carbonate-rich environment.

Committee will craft state budget compromise
A legislative conference committee soon will begin deliberations to reconcile the House and Senate versions of the state budget, which would take effect July 1.
"We are cautiously optimistic that a solid, fiscally prudent budget will emerge from conference and be voted into law within the next few weeks," House Speaker William J. Howell, R-Stafford, said Tuesday.
A number of sticking points could delay any agreement. They include road tolls in Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads, different provisions on Medicaid eligibility and the shuffling of money between education and transportation. The Republican-heavy conference committee could mean that a budget looking more like the House version will come out of the deliberations.
"With various localities and agencies waiting for final adoption of the budget, I hope that the conferees will produce a balanced conference report for final passage in short order," Howell said.
Senate Democrats were able to use the evenly divided chamber to their advantage for the first time.
As lieutenant governor, Republican Bill Bolling has been able to cast tie-breaking votes on legislation, essentially giving Republicans an unofficial majority in the chamber. However, he cannot cast the deciding vote on matters pertaining to the budget.
Democrats pushed the advantage to force a budget more to their liking. It kept more money in education and pushed back tolls in Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads, according to Delegate Mark Sickles, D-Franconia.
"What the Senate has done is exactly what House Democrats were fighting for during each round of the budget process," Sickles said.
A sizable Republican majority in the House blocked passage of the Senate version of the budget, setting the stage for joint budget conference meetings. A panel of senators and delegates will compare the two budgets, see where they don't match up and try to hammer out a compromise. The result would go to both the House and Senate for final approval.
The budget conference committee consists of six representatives from each chamber. The panel has eight Republicans, including House Majority Leader Kirk Cox, R-Colonial Heights; three Democrats; and one independent, Delegate Lacey Putney of Bedford. Putney chairs the House Appropriations Committee.

Convergent seed germination in South African fynbos and Californian chaparral

California chaparral and South African fynbos are fire-prone communities dominated by species exhibiting remarkable similarities in germination response. In both regions there are a substantial number of species with germination stimulated chemically by charred wood and smoke. This type of germination behaviour has arisen independently in distantly related families and is interpreted as convergent evolution. Heat-shock is also an important germination trigger that is widespread, although in both regions it is most common in the same families. Phylogeney may play an important role in the presence of this postfire germination cue in both regions, but a much more rigorous analysis is required to show that this trait represents a single unique event in each lineage. In both regions, germination response is not randomly distributed across growth forms and there are marked regional similiarities in the type of germination behaviour associated with certain growth forms. Geophytes largely lack refractory seeds, which require fire-type cues for germination, but the presence of fire-stimulated flowering of bulbs and corms may time recruitment to subsequent postfire years. Annuals that cue germination to postfire conditions are predominantly triggered by chemicals from smoke and/or charred wood.

Cabot's Kylee Sims starting trapshooting competitively just two years ago, but last week signed on to be a part of the first shooting team in the history of Lyon College.
Sims has enjoyed hunting for years, but quickly found out she has a lot of skill at shooting the clay as well.
"It takes a lot of commitment and dedication to be a good shooter, and Kylee has that," said Cabot shooting coach Mary Martishaw. "She has the patience you need. You can't get rattled when you miss one, and she just moves on to the next."
Sims has big plans for college outside of trapshooting as well. She is looking at the pre-med and biology programs at Lyon. Arkansas State University and the University of Central Arkansas were in the mix for a while, but Lyon eventually won out.
"They've got a really good pre-med program and they've got a high success rate coming out of their program," said Sims. "It will also be pretty fun to be a part of their first shooting team."

An overview is presented of the use of a single-domain model for developing an understanding of the switching of two coupled magnetic free layers for toggle MRAM (magnetic random access memory). The model includes the effects of length, width, thickness, magnetization, thickness asymmetry, intrinsic anisotropy, exchange coupling, dipole coupling, and applied magnetic field. First, a simple perturbative approach is used to understand the basic phenomena at low fields, including the critical switching curve and activation energy. Then the more general model is applied in order to understand the effects of saturation at large field, and thickness asymmetry. The major results are that toggle MRAM should have a larger margin for half-select and full-select switching fields than Stoner–Wohlfarth MRAM, and that the activation energy should increase upon half-select, thus eliminating the half-select activated-error problem.

OSWIECIM, Poland (AP) — Pope Francis paid a somber visit in silence to the Nazi German death camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau on Friday, becoming the third consecutive pontiff to make the pilgrimage to the place where Adolf Hitler's forces killed more than 1 million people, most of them Jews.
By Maurice Tamman NEW YORK (Reuters) - In a presidential campaign notable for its negativity, the option of "Neither" candidate appears to be an appealing alternative, at least to participants in the Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll. Many voters on both sides have been ambivalent in their support for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump, complicating the task of the pollsters trying to track the race. The amended Reuters/Ipsos tracking poll will be published later Friday, available at http://polling.reuters.com.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Rag & Bone Dre Jeans in Wells
Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted making her way through LAX airport to catch a flight out of Los Angeles. The Iron Man 3 actress wore a pair of the Rag & Bone Dre Jeans in Wells with her staple necklaces, Hermes cuff, muscle t shirt, and grey ankle boots. She finished her look off with a temporary eagle tattoo.
I will never find this look tiring on Gwyneth. The way she styles it and the way everything just fits is so casual, yet still classic and put together. Even with the accessories, I find they just compliment the look instead of just embellishing it. You can click here to purchase Rag & Bone jeans from SSENSE.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Rag & Bone
Gwyneth Paltrow really loves her Rag & Bone skinny jeans! She wore her skinny jeans in Kensington with a pair of Isabel Marant Jenny boots with a blazer and sweater.
Gwyn really likes this combo, as it's very similar to the one she wore out with Cameron Diaz. I'm not sure if I like this outfit as much as her first one, I think the length of the blazer here is a bit awkward and would look better if it were longer. These jeans are great on her though! You can buy Rag & Bone at SSENSE.

Gwyneth Paltrow made her way through the streets of New York heading towards the set of 'Thanks For Sharing' a couple of days ago. The movie is based around 3 people who go through treatment for sex addiction. It sounds interesting I think, I wonder how Gwyneth will portray her character?
Gwyneth wore a pair of Rag & Bone skinny jeans which she paired with an Alternative Apparel Eco Black Slouchy Pullover, MiH Collection's The Biker Jacket in Black Leather and a pair of black ankle boots. I think Rag & Bone jeans seem to fit everyone perfectly, I haven't seen a bad fitting pair on a celebrity yet! I still need to try the brand, I love the look of their skinnies!

LOS ANGELES (October 3, 2013)—Dr. Conrad Murray, the doctor who was sent to prison for killing Michael Jackson with a drug overdose, says he cried when he heard a jury rejected a claim that the promoter of the singer's comeback concerts was negligent in hiring him.
Katherine Jackson was seeking to hold the promoter, AEG Live LLC, responsible for her son's death, arguing that it hired Murray as the singer's physician without considering whether he was fit for the job.
Murray told NBC's "Today" show on Thursday from prison that he cried when he heard the jury's verdict.
He said he was "relieved" even though he always believed the wrongful-death lawsuit was "frivolous."
Murray, who's appealing his 2011 involuntary manslaughter conviction, is due to be released from prison later this month.
He said he's looking forward to reuniting with his family and restarting his life.

RISE'12 Home
Workshop on Redefining and Integrating Security Engineering
ASE/IEEE International Conference on Cyber Security 12
Current practices for developing secure systems are still closer to art than to an engineering discipline. Security is still treated as an add-on and is therefore not integrated into software development practices and tools. Experienced security artisans are still the key to achieving acceptable levels of security.
Several approaches and research strands have tried to address this situation in order to introduce rigor and engineering approaches in the treatment of security aspects in information systems, mainly focusing on the development phases. Traditionally, the term security engineering has been used to denote partial approaches that cover only small parts of the processes that are required in order to create a secure system, like modeling, verification, programming, etc. Moreover, the connections between the different techniques and tools is very weak or most of the times inexistent. Even in the cases that approaches are closer to a "methodology", and have achieved a certain level of maturity, the key concepts and workflows are highly influenced by the way the development process has been traditionally approached by the security artisans.
Today, the current trend towards distributed and open systems has revealed the important limitations of the current lack of rigor and integration in security engineering approaches. The main problems that the new computing paradigms introduce are the high levels of heterogeneity, dynamism and autonomy, as well as the large scale. The result is that engineers have to deal with runtime situations that are unpredictable at design time. The main drawbacks of current approaches is that they fail to provide a reasonable support for systematic engineering since the identification, characterization and specification of the protection goals and the related threats as well as the selection of appropriate mechanisms and countermeasures depends on the experience of the engineers. Consequently, these approaches represent only minor improvements over the security craftsmanship era.
The RISE Workshop is planned as a forum to discuss this situation, to present novel and promising ideas towards the
foundation of IT security as an engineering discipline
and to advocate a change of paradigm based on the definition of integrated processes with well-defined goals and interfaces that combine the different techniques, methodologies and tools to support the engineering of secure systems.
We do not only expect the workshop to be a forum for presentation of research results in the classical way, but also expect to produce as outcomes of this event the following specific results:
Presentation of the Security Engineering Forum as an entity for collaboration of the IT security community and for driving the foundation of IT security as an engineering discipline;
Creation of a "Security Engineering Manifesto" advocating the establishment of IT Security as an Engineering discipline;
Kick-starting the production of a new "Security Engineering BOK (Body of Knowledge)" that provides a map of techniques, methodologies and tools along with their relation and their role in the new security engineering processes.
Workshop Format
The RISE Workshop will have a hybrid approach that will combine a traditional scientific workshop with an interactive forum for discussion of the main workshop topics, creation of a community and a clear focus on producing tangible results and making an impact on the situation of IT Security. As such, we believe that the organization of the RISE workshop in the framework of ASE/IEEE will not only benefit the workshop attendees, but will also complement the ASE/IEEE offer.

Dick Cheney's favorability rating. Ana Marie Cox responds: "If he had feelings, I'm sure they'd be hurt by this."
UPDATE: Tom DeFrank writes in the NY Daily News, "Cheney may be an overall net political minus, but he's a huge asset where it counts most for Bush: the Republican base, which adores Cheney. Bush's approval numbers are at 30%, roughly the same size as his base. If Cheney left, this weakened President couldn't absorb the backlash. They're all he has left."

How to rock colorful mascara without looking silly
Colorful mascara's been making a splash in the beauty world lately, showing up on runway models and celebrities across the globe. It's predicted to be a big trend for fall, and blues, greens and purples are the most popular colors. Reds, oranges and yellows have also been spotted though, so there are plenty of choices. But how can you pull this new look off without looking silly?
First, choose a color that makes sense for your skin tone, eye color and outfit. You don't want to be mixing shades that aren't complementary unless you're a pro when it comes to colorblocking. Purple is flattering on mostly everyone, while blue eyes can be highlighted with red mascara and brown eyes can be flattered with blue. Green would be a great choice for green-eyed ladies. You can try them all out with a product like Joey New York – Mini Super Duper Lash Tips.
Second, keep the rest of your makeup understated. All you need is a neutral blush, lip color and eyeliner. Don't attempt to match your eyeshadow to the mascara – that's going a little overboard. If you're hesitant to embrace the trend full-on, ease yourself in with a barely noticeable change – like you'd get with Jane Iredale – Longest Lash Mascara – Ripe Plum.

I have a class using WordPress.org rather than .com this term. In the past (using .com) I've simply had them start a new .com site called "yourname_practice" so they could mess around and not destroy the work they'd already done on their main site.
On .org I'm not quite sure how to do this. They have created their sites on their purchased domains. I'd like to have them change things within the CSS but again, not destroy what they've done. It might be that I have them save and then restore? Or is there a practice plugin that would work?

WILMINGTON, Del. (September 29, 2013)—Jakiya McKoy, 7, the winner of the Little Miss Hispanic Delaware contest, has been stripped of her crown because of concerns she's not Hispanic, after all.
She lost the title two weeks ago, the News Journal of Wilmington reported.
Some critics say the decision to strip her of her crown was made because McKoy is black and not Latina enough.
Pageant organizers require contestants to be at least 25 percent Hispanic.
Maria Perez, president of Nuestras Raices, said the verification the child had "does not specify she was 25 percent Hispanic or Hispanic at all."
She says the decision has nothing to do with skin color.
Daniel Jose Older, who started a Change.org petition, says McKoy's grandmother was born in the Dominican Republic and lived illegally in the United States before her death.

Hey everyone! I know similar topics have described a similar need, but they most commonly involve adding links to the captions.
What I really need is to turn the caption itself into a link, pointing to the same URL as the image. So, whether you click the image or the caption you go to the same URL.
I think the solution may involve hacking the gallery creation script in media.php , but I'm not that much into PHP and don't know how exactly to do this. The images on the site are like 5000 , so adding a link to each caption isn't an option (link stripping can be easier to shut down, but it's not exactly what I'm after).
If there is some kind of plugin (which I haven't found) that would be great. If no, I'm open to your ideas. Thank you!

Angry Birds catapults into HTML5 and Google Chrome
It really was just a matter of time, but Angry Birds has now made it online, and is completely playable – in HTML 5 – on Google's Chrome browser.
The game was revealed at this week's Google I/O developer conference in San Francisco, where Rovio head honcho Peter Vesterbacka was more than happy to show off the new technology.
Previously, Vesterbacka explained that the company "didn't want to compromise on performance" – but now, the technology is all there.
Angry Birds is a web-based app that lives happily in the Google Chrome Web Store – right now, the 'beta' version is free and just waiting for you to drop by. There are special Chrome-only levels, and even Chrome-specific elements including Chrome flowers, clouds and rocks.
Rovio plan on using in-app payments to sell its premium levels, with Google allowing developers to keep a chunky 95% of the sale price of their apps.
Thanks for the info, CNET!

Take care when pruning young trees
By Tivon Feely
Iowa State University Extension
Landscape trees need proper care throughout their lives, and one of the most important tree management practices is pruning. Pruning is more than just indiscriminately removing branches. When done properly, pruning can improve the health and structure of the tree. Proper pruning includes knowing which branch to remove, when to do it, and how to minimize damage to the tree.
The main reason to prune young trees is to develop a good branch structure, and the first 15-20 years of a tree's life is the most critical time to prune to achieve good branch structure. The best time to prune is in mid to late winter (January-March). Pruning during this time of the year allows the tree to have a full growing season to seal over the wound.
If pruning must be done at other times of the year, avoid pruning during the spring from bud break through leaf expansion and during the fall leaf color season. Pruning during those times may reduce the vigor of a tree. Oak is a species where timing of pruning is critical. The pathogen that causes the oak wilt disease can be transmitted through open wounds by a small sap-feeding beetle. For this reason, avoid pruning oaks from March through September.
Limit pruning of newly planted trees to the removal of dead and broken branches or the correction of multiple leaders. Leave the temporary lower branches on the tree until they reach 1 inch in diameter to increase trunk growth and root development. Concentrate efforts on removing crossing, rubbing, broken, diseased and weak-angled branches in the upper portion of the tree. Also, eliminate double leaders and basal sprouts. Remember pruning is an on going process throughout a tree's life.
Before making a pruning cut, identify the branch bark ridge and branch collar. The branch bark ridge is simply where the branch and trunk meet. The branch collar is the swollen area just under the branch. When removing a branch, use the three-cut method. The initial cut is made on the underside of the branch 6-12 inches from the trunk and about a third of the way through the stem. The second cut is made through the stem about 1 inch outside the initial cut. The second cut removes the weight of the branch preventing tearing. The last cut is made outside the branch collar.
Proper pruning will help enable young landscape trees to survive and thrive. For more information on pruning, consider reading Iowa State University Extension publication Pruning Trees and Shrubs (SUL 5). That publication is available at www.extension.iastate.edu/store .

The field of modern scientific research can demonstrate few more valuable therapeutic triumphs than the results displayed by antitoxin and intubation in laryngeal diphtheria. The fondest hopes of Roux, Berhing and O'Dwyer have been realized. It remains for us, their pupils, only to defend and apply the principles which they have so perfectly laid before us. It would seem that results as marvelous as our collective investigations absolutely demonstrate ought to be sufficient, but there is much missionary work yet to be done. It is not uncommon to find at the present time many cases of laryngeal diphtheria under observation for some days without the administration of antidiphtheritic serum while operative interference is postponed until the patient is moribund.
During a recent trip abroad it was my privilege to meet those enthusiastic pioneers in intubation, Baginsky of Berlin, Egide of Rome, and Massei of Naples, and to find that their

I ended up moving it front of an entry door and it's perfect, low pile (the door doesn't get caught up non it), cleans easily, doesn't show much wear. I ended up painting the door black to play off the rug and it looks even better!...

Not what it seems!
When I ordered this I thought it was more for an outdoor patio, NOT and it's very fluffy material so dog hair and grass stick to it. I have to vacuum the rug all the time. It's not a flat woven material. I do not recommend buying this rug. Poor quality for the price. I could've done better at a nearby store.Read More
I love this rug! We already have carpet in my daughter's nursery so I didn't buy it for thickness or high quality-purely design. It makes a bold, fun statement and it's exactly what we needed!Read More
Good trendy rug for a great price.
I initially bought the smallest size (4'x5'7") to see how it felt and looked before I splurged for the larger one. When I received it (just a week later) I was very happy with the look, but the feel was a bit plasticy. With bare feet you could tell the fibers were not natural, on the short side and had that polyester feeling - more doormat quality rather than carpeting. But then this rug was CHEAP - and I didn't expect too much for the price so all in all, it met my expectations. Also - it's a pet hair MAGNET. Pet owners beware and make sure you vacuum frequently. The color is indeed what everyone else is saying - off-white, or eggshell rather than pure white - but for me that works because that is what I was looking for. The black is indeed black, not grey or brown. The pattern is a bit on the small side which gives it a bit of a busier look than I wanted but still gave that graphic punch I was looking for. I'm using it now for my walk in closet and have ordered the largest one - 8x10 for my living room. It will anchor the furniture & unify my decor which is mix of vintage and modern. If you are looking for a rug that is on trend and cheap, this one which can't be beat.Read More
Chevron Rug--Good for the Price
Great rug for a child's room or a room with a lot of traffic. Fibers are easy to clean. We use it with a rug pad to keep it from sliding. The price was excellent but I gave it 4 stars because the white was not as bright as pictured; it's closer to an off-white. Also, the edges of the black stripes are not as sharp as pictured. Regardless, I still love the rug and am happy with the purchase. Oh, and it needs about 5 days to offset the plasticy fumes.Read More

Trying to eat healthier, but don't want to give up your favorite carb entrees? This light pasta dish is a simple way to ease into cutting back on flour, by substituting ribbons of squash for some of the pasta. Fresh herbs and ricotta salata add flavor to this light dish.
Serve this balanced pasta dish with our Caprese Salad, Garlic Bread, and Tiramisu for dessert.
Beverage pairing: A delicious but inexpensive white composed of varying percentages of Viognier, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette from the South of France would provide just enough body to stand up to the pasta and ricotta salata, and the freshness and delicate herbal qualities present in some of the best examples would complement the zucchini and pine nut components of this dish. Try the 2005 Côtes du Rhône Blanc La Bastide Saint Dominique.

Edit Article
How to Be a Naturally Beautiful Preteen
Many women and girls like to display their natural beauty instead of "perfecting" their faces with makeup. This is possible for anybody, including preteens. This article will help you to be a naturally beautiful preteen.
1Take care of your skin. Acne is a common issue for teens and preteens, as well as the occasional adult. Wash your face once or twice a day and avoid getting oils and dirt on your skin, and, if you wear makeup, wash it off at night-- oil, dirt, and makeup can all get in your pores and trigger acne. You may also want to get special facial scrubs and treatments, if your acne is moderate or worse.
- Drink plenty of water (at least 8 glasses a day) to keep your skin nourished.
2Take care of your hair. Wash your hair every few days, but not every day, as this can dry out your hair. Use shampoo, conditioner, and any other products you use. Brush your hair well and keep heat treatments (blow drying and straightening, for instance) to a minimum.
3Take care of your body. Drugs, alcohol, and tobacco will all negatively influence your appearance (among other things). Make sure you eat enough nutritious foods to get the vitamins and minerals you need. Get plenty of sleep (8 hours) and, as mentioned before, drink plenty of water.
4Love yourself. Many young girls think of themselves as unattractive or worse. But everyone has natural beauty, even if they don't realize it. The idea here is not to change yourself, but to maximize on the beauty you already have. If you're not stick-thin, that's okay. If you have straight or curly hair, be proud of it. If you have freckles, pale skin, dark skin, don't try to hide or change that. Love your features and be confident in your looks; confidence and positivity look good on anyone.
5Don't apologize for showing your natural beauty. It is nothing to be ashamed of. It is a legitimate and healthy choice. People who prefer different images can go find people with those images. The people who love you for your naturally beauty will come to you. The media, advertisements, and beauty empires are all striving to get you and everyone else to live up to a certain image. Take strength in knowing that you have made your own definition of beauty and are making your own way.

Vick may not get out of this one
Published: Sunday, July 22, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, July 22, 2007 at 12:34 a.m.
Michael Vick has earned a reputation as one of the most elusive athletes in all of sports.
Since making a splash as a redshirt freshman quarterback at Virginia Tech, Vick has caused many sleepless nights for opposing college coaches. They tried -- and most times failed -- trying to devise a scheme to slow down the fleet-footed quarterback.
Nothing changed when Vick made the jump to the NFL. Opposing coaches are still trying to find ways to slow down the Atlanta Falcons quarterback.
Although his completion percentage is not the best, Vick remains one of the NFLs most dangerous quarterbacks because of his elusive speed.
At times, many people wondered if someone or something could slow him down.
On Tuesday, Vick may have met his match -- the United States government.
Although it did not happen on the football field, Vicks career may be stuck in neutral.
A federal grand jury indicted Vick and three others for operating Bad Newz Kennels, a dogfighting operation in Virginia. The four were charged with competitive dogfighting, procuring and training pit bulls for fighting and conducting the enterprise across state lines.
If convicted of all charges, Vick -- known as "Ookie" in the dogfighting world -- and the others involved could face up to six years in prison, $350,000 in fines and restitution.
The 18-page indictment had some gruesome details on how the pit bulls were treated at Bad Newz Kennels. When a dog lost a fight, it was put to death by drowning, strangulation, hanging, gunshot, electrocution or some other method, including slamming the animal to the ground.
Its hard to believe that one of the NFLs high-profile players could be involved in such a gruesome activity. Unfortunately, it appears that Vick was more than involved in dogfighting he was one of the leaders.
Now, its up to the courts to determine Vicks fate.
When this goes to trial remains to be seen, but there is a good chance Vick could be in a courtroom fighting for his freedom as the Falcons are fighting for a playoff spot.
Vicks first day in court will be Thursday, as he and the other defendants will be arraigned. Ironically, it is the first day of training camp for the Falcons and first-year coach Bobby Petrino.
What is the next step for Vick?
Will he play during the 2007 season?
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has taken a tough stance on other players that have tarnished the leagues image (Adam "Pacman" Jones and Chris Henry), but he wants the Falcons to handle the Vick situation.
Some reports have stated that the Falcons would like Vick to take a year off with pay so he can take care of his legal problems.
Vick has not spoken publicly about the situation, so it remains to be seen if he will take some time off.
But playing in 2007 could be a challenge, as a day will not go by without people calling out Vick and calling him a cruel person for his treatment of animals.
In their eyes, Vick is guilty of all charges and should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
We have to remember that Vick is innocent until proven guilty.
But whenever a federal grand jury issues an indictment, its never good news as it has a 95 percent conviction rate.
If that is the case, theres a 95 percent chance that Vicks promising NFL career will come to an abrupt end.

BEIJING, June 24 (Xinhua) -- The Ministry of Civil Affairs has vowed to draft regulations for management and operation of baby hatches for abandoned infants, which are currently in a trial run amid controversy.
A baby hatch allows a parent to safely and anonymously abandon an infant and consists of an incubator, a delayed alarm device, an air conditioner and a cot. A person can place a baby in the hatch, press the alarm button, and leave. Welfare staff retrieve the baby five to 10 minutes later.
In a Tuesday statement, the ministry revealed that the country's existing 32 baby hatches had received 1,400 abandoned infants as of the end of June 18.
The first baby hatch in the country was set up in June 2011 in Shijiazhuang, capital of north China's Hebei Province.
Some believe the hatches encourage people to abandon their babies. However, others argue they demonstrate social progress in protecting and saving the lives of babies.
The ministry noted that babies collected from the hatches were usually sick to varying degrees and many were severely handicapped.
Zhan Chengfu, a senior official with the ministry, said that these baby hatches play a role in improving the lives of abandoned infants. However, compared to other countries with similar systems, a relatively large proportion of the infants collected in China clearly have parents and many are older than the norm.
Zhan noted that the oldest received in a baby hatch in China was 12 years old.
The ministry is cooperating with the China Center for Children's Welfare and Adoption in gathering experiences in operating these baby hatches and drafting management regulations before the system is implemented nationwide, according to the official.
"For children, families remain the safest 'hatches,' and a baby hatch only serves as the last straw. The two can never swap positions," the official added.
