Oyster Harper Banquette
This is one of the most comfortable, and well built products made. I love all worldmarket products ,and are all quality and reasonably priced. This piece looks stunning in my dining room, especially against the deep grey walls and clean white trim accents. Gives a high contrast! NOTHING went wrong moving the piece into my home, NOTHING broke off like a wheel, or ripped.
October 9, 2012
Better than we expected
the little wheels were a great design feature to make it easy to use at the dinning table. The fabric is incredible durable
July 5, 2013
I really love the way it looks!
I have a small area that has been very hard to decorate.
This gives a look that is beautiful and unique.
I can't wait to have my family and friends over!
May 22, 2013
I bought this product because I have small doorways 24" wide so it is difficult to buy furniture. This fit and the legs were easy to get on. I suggest putting a rug under the wheels to prevent scratching to your wooden floors. The color is not white but a taupe beige. It's very pretty with pillows on it too.
February 25, 2013
Looks beautiful!
My style is eclectic, and I don't like "matchy matchy" furniture. I wanted a piece that looked attractive, was functional, and a bit different from a table with all matching chairs. This piece fits the bill perfectly! I love the color, and the fabric is oh so soft and the seat is very comfortable. My husband is not easily impressed, and even he finds this banquette very comfortable. My only worry is the other reviews reporting caster issues. I plan not to move the seat around, so I hope maybe this will prevent any issues there. Sure love this! So stylish!
January 17, 2013
Love it
I purchased this to use in my formal living room. It sits in the room with 2 wing back chairs and looks absolutely wonderful. I couldn't be happier. It is incredibly comfortable.
November 14, 2012
Pretty and comfortable
Very pretty and soft. Easy to put together, but I do recommend having a second person to help lift. Love this banquette.
January 30, 2013
Beautiful, poor leg design
This is an absolutely beautiful piece, but it does have some quality issues. Within a week of getting it the front casters started bending. I was the only one that had used it at that point and I only weigh 120 lbs. I figured the casters wouldn't last very long just by simple physics. They manufacturer should re-design these legs, honestly they would be even more beautiful if they were just wood. I did manage to fix it by getting longer screws and re-screwing the casters in. I haven't had any issues since I did that. I am planning on changing the casters out for a wood piece just because all that stress at that small of a point does cause damage to the hardwood floors.
Other than that it is really comfortable and absolutely gorgeous. It adds a lot of character to my dining room. The color is great too since it is an off white/beige. I would recommend buying it simply because it is a great piece, but just be ready to have to fix the legs right away.

Peterson Counseling Center
The Peterson Counseling Center (PCC) provides free, confidential services for Ringling students, including individual and group counseling; emergency psychological services; consultation with home and community providers for students with specialized or long-term needs; and outreach and educational programming. The PCC also offers psychological consultation to students, faculty and staff as well as parents and families who are concerned about a student.
Peterson Counseling Center Mission Statement
The Peterson Counseling Center (PCC) believes that good health is essential for achieving educational objectives and supporting the quality of our students' educational experience. The Counseling Center strives to enhance the well-being of students by working with students' families, home providers, community therapists and off-campus providers/specialists, and other campus departments to provide emotional support, impart life skills, and encourage self-reflection. Our purpose is to empower students to navigate their way through the world as individuals with both greater autonomy and effectiveness, and the skills to manage their personal and mental health needs during and after college. We work to create a safe environment that is inclusive and welcoming of all students. We strive to continue to develop relevant expertise, make substantive contributions to the field, and to serve as consultants to the greater campus, promoting an informed, prepared and safe community.
Commitment to Respect for Differences
The staff of the PCC are committed to delivering professional services that respect both individual differences and our common humanity. Our professional guidelines and personal values call us to recognize prejudice, privilege, and discrimination in all of its forms (including but not limited to gender identity, race, ethnicity, culture, religion, sexual orientation, disability status, socioeconomic status, and more), and to become aware of the effects on individuals and groups to which those individuals belong. We seek to apply this commitment in all of our professional activities, and to support the growth of communities that work better for everyone.
Our mission is closely aligned with The larger Office of Student Life, which provides a variety of programs and services designed to promote the artistic development, academic success, personal growth, and overall well-being of the student body, and aims to support the broader mission of the Ringling College, which "Through its policies and practices, supports excellence in teaching and fosters the aesthetic, intellectual, professional, personal, and social development of its students."

Individual and Group Counseling
Involves meeting short-term one-on-one with a counselor or in a small group. Many students meet with a counselor sporadically throughout their college years as particular concerns arise.
Typical concerns students discuss in personal counseling include:
- Adjusting to college
- Coping with stress
- Confusion, anxiety or depression
- Dealing with fears
- Family concerns – including parental divorce
- Loneliness
- Romantic concerns
- Balancing academics and social needs
- Self-destructive use of alcohol or drugs
- Loss of a relationship
- Understanding one's sexuality
- Exploring career choice
- Personal trauma such as sexual assault
- Illness, death of a friend or family member
Small groups of students are occasionally formed for mutual support and shared learning. Examples are: First Year and Non-Traditional Student Support Groups, Art Therapy, and Depression/Anxiety. Students are encouraged to contact the Counseling Center to find out about more specific groups.
For students who come in to college with a significant history of mental health needs or otherwise decide they require more frequent, more specialized, or longer-term services that our counseling center can provide, we are happy to work with students to help them find a therapist in the community.
Please schedule an appointment with us if we can help with this process, check your insurance to see who is covered, or view our online list of Community Providers.
Community Providers
We have compiled a list of community providers to help make your meeting your or your students assessment or long-term therapy needs easier. This list includes long term therapist, specialized assessment and treatment providers for areas like ADHD and Eating concerns, as well as specialized assessment and recovery centers for alcohol/substance abuse.
Click here to download a copy of the most recent list of Community Providers.
Psychopharmacological Referrals
While classes are in session, the medical staff can works with students who require psychotropic medications in combination with their ongoing therapy. For students with existing prescriptions from home providers, please let your therapist know so they may communicate openly with each other. By working as a team with your existing provider, we are able to provide the most complete service and ensure a higher continuity of care for you. If you are receiving medication, please continue to stay in contact with your existing provider regularly via phone and during breaks as possible for medication management, and let your therapist know about any changes to your medication. Off-campus referrals for local psychiatrists can also be provided upon request for students requiring more specialized treatment. Controlled substance prescriptions are not given by on-campus staff. Our goal is to help support your total health and long-term success.
Documenting Learning Disabilities
The staff of the the Ringling College Health Center is not able to provide assessment and/or documentation of learning disabilities. Receiving services from PCC or SMH will not lead to accommodations or other services, even if you disclose a qualifying disability.

Disabilities services are available to anyone with a condition that interferes with classes, coursework or activities on campus and accommodations can only be arranged through ARC.
The following professionals would generally be considered qualified to conduct evaluations provided that they have additional training and experience in evaluating adolescents and adults with learning disabilities: clinical or educational psychologists; school psychologists; neuropsychologists; learning disabilities specialists; and medical doctors with demonstrated training and experience in the assessment of learning disabilities in adolescents and adults. You may consult with your home provider, your insurance provider, or view our list of community agencies to locate a trained professional to provide a thorough assessment.

The Counseling Center's Clinical Staff provides emergency services to students who are experiencing acute emotional distress, are a dange to self or others, or require immediate intervention or hospitilization. In an emergency the student should contact their Resident Assistant, Associate Dean of Residents Life, Administrator on Duty or Public Safety at (941) 359-7500.

Occasionally students, faculty and staff have a concern about the behavior of a student and would like to consult with a professional about what might be done to help the individual. The Counseling Center staff is available to provide assistance and when appropriate explore ways to make an effective referral.
In some cases the Counseling Center is unable to provide the service requested or a student may seek services outside the Counseling Center. The staff of the Counseling Center is often able to help individuals find the most appropriate source of help and facilitate the referral process.
Sarasota Area Inpatient Mental Health Facilities
If you or someone you know is in immediate danger of harming themselves please call 911 or visit the local Emergency Room. ER staff after providing an assessment can facilitate transport to Bayside Center for Behavioral Health inpatient unit.

Serves: 8 servings
Total Time: 11 hr 50 min
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 2 cup(s) buttermilk
- 2 tablespoon(s) hot pepper sauce
- 1 tablespoon(s) salt
- 2 chickens, each c ut into 8 pieces
- 2 cup(s) flour
- 1.5 teaspoon(s) baking powder
- 1 teaspoon(s) black pepper
- 1 teaspoon(s) paprika
- 5 cup(s) vegetable oil , or shortening for frying
- In extra-large (2- to 2 1/2-gallon) zip-top plastic bag, combine buttermilk, hot pepper sauce and 1 tsp. salt. Add chicken pieces, turning to coat. Seal bag, pressing out excess air. Place bag in bowl; refrigerate chicken for 2 to 24 hours to marinate, turning bag over once.
- In pie plate or bowl, stir flour, baking powder, pepper, paprika and remaining 2 tsp. salt until well mixed. Remove a few pieces of chicken from buttermilk mixture, shaking off excess liquid. Add chicken to flour mixture, turning to coat well. Place chicken on wire rack set over waxed paper, without letting pieces touch. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces, using a second rack if necessary; let stand 15 minutes to set coating. Discard buttermilk mixture.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 250úF. Line two large cookie sheets with paper towels. Divide oil between two 12-inch skillets, preferably electric (there should be about 1/2 inch of oil in each skillet) and heat over medium heat until temperature reaches 360úF on a deep-fry thermometer.
- To each skillet, add 4 pieces of chicken, skin side down, being careful not to crowd pieces. Cover skillets and cook until chicken is light golden brown on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn pieces over and cook, covered (reducing heat to medium-low, if necessary, to a temperature of 300úF), 8 to 10 minutes longer for white meat, and 13 to 15 minutes longer for dark meat, turning pieces every 4 or 5 minutes. Chicken is done when well browned on all sides and juices run clear when thickest part is pierced with the tip of a knife. Transfer chicken to lined cookie sheets to drain. Keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining chicken.

Nearly 10,000 Michigan men will learn in 2012 they've got prostate cancer.
For many surgeons worldwide and right here at Covenant HealthCare, the da Vinci® Surgical System is routinely used to treat prostate cancer and other urologic conditions. In fact, roughly three out of four prostate cancer surgeries in the United States today are performed using da Vinci® Surgery, a minimally invasive, robot-assisted procedure to remove the cancerous prostate.
At Covenant, 208 urologic surgeries have been performed using the da Vinci® robot it was purchased three years ago. Many were for prostate cancer -- the second leading cause of cancer death in U.S. men.
It gives surgeons enhance vision, precision, dexterity and control, while offering patients many potential benefits such as:
* Excellent cancer control * Faster return of sexual function * Faster return of urinary continence * Shorter hospital stay * Low level of pain * Less blood loss, fewer transfusions * Lower risk of infection and complications * Faster recovery and return to normal activities
Men facing prostate cancer are often given the treatment options of watchful waiting, hormone therapy, radiation, or surgery to remove the cancerous prostate (radical prostatectomy). Some recent studies found that when comparing surgical removal of the prostate to radiation, surgery had the lowest cancer death rate.
More American men today choose da Vinci Surgery to treat their prostate cancer than any other treatment.
State-of-the-art da Vinci® Surgery enables your doctor to operate through a few tiny incisions allowing for a faster recovery.
But surgery with the da Vinci® doesn't place a robot at the controls.
Your experienced and knowledgeable Covenant surgeon controls every aspect of the surgery with the assistance of the da Vinci® system; the da Vinci® merely replicates the surgeon's movements. Seated just a few feet away, the surgeon looks into a 3D, high-definition screen and sees an actual image of the surgical field and then maneuvers miniature surgical instruments inserted into the patient through tiny incisions.
The da Vinci® is also used for patients facing other urologic surgeries because of its many potential benefits over traditional open surgery.
Is robotic surgery right for you? Talk to your doctor about da Vinci ... and get back to your life faster.
To find a Covenant HealthCare da Vinci® surgeon, use our surgeon locator.
As with any surgery, these benefits cannot be guaranteed since surgery is specific to each patient, condition and procedure. It is important to talk to your doctor about all treatment options, including the risks and benefits.

DONNA TALK: Donna Karan sure knows how to charm a crowd. On Monday, she took to the stage for the French Institute Alliance Française's Fashion Talks series hosted by Pamela Golbin, curator in chief of 20th Century and Contemporary Fashion at the Musée de la Mode et du Textile in Paris. Karan discussed her early days at Anne Klein, the launch of Donna Karan New York, DKNY and, most recently, Urban Zen. She also told the audience at the jam-packed Florence Gould Hall that, in these times, "it's about being conscious at shopping. We have a big responsibility in fashion."
Karan also talked about everything from going public ("Not one of the highlights of my career," she admitted. "For a minute, the stock was up") to selling her business to LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton ("It's been an amazing experience"). Her favorite designers include Azzedine Alaïa, Yohji Yamamoto, Karl Lagerfeld and Rick Owens, and she would like to dress Tilda Swinton and Michelle Obama. Fashion Talks will continue next month with Catherine Malandrino on March 20 and Diane von Furstenberg on March 23.

Customer Reviews for Child Safe Beige / Neutral Remote Control / Motorized Stripes Roman Window Shades
"beautiful high quality"
By customer
I ordered these in the Epic Crest pattern that was shown in the example. The light filtering through gives the room a nice golden glow.
View this product"Easy Install and Great Design"
By NewBuyer from Chicago, IL
The new roman shade looks amazing. I was nervous as this was the first time I've installed and purchased a blind without professional help. It was a breeze. It only took about 20 minutes to install on the window. I have now purchased more blinds for other windows knowing how easy it was.

5 Simply inspirational.Waddoo | 17/04/2010 | See all Waddoo's reviews (159)Top 100 Reviewer Top 10 Books Reviewer Management books, tend to centre around concepts of what happens in the office. Perhaps the brilliance of this book is that it is some versitile that it can be a model for all elements of life and the message is so simple. This really is one of those books that you want all of your friends and colleagues to have read, as it is simply inspirational.
5 InspirationalPemJem | 04/07/2008 | See all PemJem's reviews (3)Takes no time at all to read, and is easy to read - like a fun kids book, yet gives you lots to think about, whatever aspect of your life you relate it to. Well worth the read (and the pennies) and will almost certainly improve your outlook to change/life. I feel more positive in life for reading it. I will be recomending it to all my friends, colleagues and family.
5 Inspiring ParableMarnico | 29/09/2007 | See all Marnico's reviews (132)Top 100 DVD Reviewer Was recommended this book and like most self help books I approached it with a degree of scepticism. I found it engrossing and very interesting and although I wouldn't go so far to say it changed my life, it certainly made me think about certain aspects of it.It doesn't matter what walk of life you come from some part of this parable will apply to you. It's one of those situations where you have nothing to lose by reading it except a short amount of time but this is outweighed by the inspiration you may gain.

What Promotional Products Means
In its simplest form, the term promotional product is a catch-all phrase for products that are used to affect a behaviour or convey a message. But they are really a sophisticated tool. Some examples of the different ways to use promotional products are to motivate your salespeople, thank your board of trustees, introduce a new product, get your dealers to load up on more product, reduce on-the-job accidents....
Promotional products usually, but not always bear an appropriate logo, slogan or saying, known as the imprint. There are many different ways a product can be imprinted, depending on the material from which it is made.
Some common methods of imprinting include printing, screenprinting, embossing, embroidery, hot stamping, pad printing, etching, engraving, die-casting, etc. The message itself can be as simple as a company logo or as complex as a mission statement.
By their nature, promotional products are usually sold in quantity and imprinting is rarely done on a single item. And because promotional products are generally purchased in quantities, they usually cost less than the recipient thinks they do, giving them a higher perceived value. How a promotional product is packaged can enhance its perceived value even more.
Certain products have traditionally been used for promotional purposes, and are the products most typically associated with this market. Some of these products include calendars, mugs, pens, T-shirts, bumperstickers, keytags, etc. But there is really no limit to the type of product that can be used to communicate a message.
Today, there are literally hundreds of thousands of promotional products, including many high-value items like clocks, crystal, china and watches. Additionally, automotive accessories and desktop products are very popular.

SEATTLE, June 24, 2013 - As part of the Obama administration's work to make the United States health-care system more affordable and accountable, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released 2011 data in early May that shows significant variation across the country and within communities in what providers charge for common services. These data include information comparing the charges for the 100 most common inpatient services and 30 common outpatient services. Providers determine what they will charge for items and services provided to patients and these charges are the average amount the providers bill for an item or service. The following information is intended to help patients and family members better understand this complicated topic.

White Industries ENO Freewheel
Freewheels have notoriously been considered an Achilles heel to the drive train system. Traditionally, the freewheel has been considered a disposable component that should be replaced on a regular basis. White Industries approached the component differently. Their mindset was to create and manufacture a freewheel that would be durable, reliable and easily maintained.
The ENO freewheel utilizes a sealed cartridge bearing instead of a loose ball system. The advantage of the cartridge bearing is that it is sealed from the elements such as mud, grit, and water. The other benefit is that the bearing is nicely contained in one simple unit and can be easily pulled and replaced when worn rather than working with loose balls and retaining rings.
The ENO freewheel features a machined inner driver and machined outer gear casing resulting in a freewheel that runs concentrically without the tight and loose spots common to other freewheels. The driver utilizes 36 engagement points and three tool steel pawls for the standard freewheel. The trials version operates with six tools steel pawls in 72 engagement points.
Bike Mag Review:
"This is the first time that the word "bling" could be applied to BMX freewheels. After a year of use, it hasn't been cared for in any way whatsoever, and is still running smooth and solid. While it costs a hell of a lot more than garden variety BMX freewheels, it is sealed against the elements and lasts longer than a few months, something most unsealed BMX freewheels can't boast." Ferrentino, Mike. "Style in Spades" Bikemag.com.

I'm currently exposing it for 20 minutes to see if it turns out okay but i know i'm doing leaps of faith here.
If anyone knows i'll be grateful.

Barstool Local Smokeshow of the Day – Erin
Introducing Erin from Emerson via Haverhill. I got to be honest. I have no fucking clue what is going on in Haverhill. I always thought Haverhill was kind of a dump. But I swear they've had a run of smokeshows that are just about the hottest smokes we've ever had including Erin. It's wild. I think I greatly underestimated that place or something. Had no idea they had this type of talent.
And yes Barstool Foam is 1 week away from coming back to Boston. We got shows Wednesday and Thursday of next week. My guess is both will be sold out probably by the end of the weekend judging how ticket sales are going. So if you don't want to pay triple by now. And yes all smokes party for free. Just email or facebook us if you need to claim your tix.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Cowboys player's attorney: $500g bond excessive
Monday, December 10, 2012
IRVING, Texas — Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Josh Brent remained in custody Sunday on $500,000 bond, one day after being charged with intoxication manslaughter after what police said was a drunken-driving accident that killed close friend and teammate Jerry Brown.
Brent was arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated, and the charge was upgraded after Brown died. The manslaughter charge is a second-degree felony punishable by two to 20 years in prison.
"They praised him," she said. "They were all really upset and crying" when they found out about his death.
On Fox's NFL Sunday show, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the team had focused on Brown's death in the "last few hours." He didn't mention Brent.
In February 2009, Brent was arrested in February 2009 near the Illinois campus for driving under the influence, driving on a suspended license and speeding, according to Champaign County, Ill., court records. Four months later, Brent pleaded guilty to DUI and was sentenced to 60 days in jail, two years of probation, 200 hours of community service and a fine of about $2,000.
The Cowboys signed Brown to their practice squad Oct. 24, but he hasn't been on the active roster. He was released from the Colts' practice squad Oct. 20. Brown was active for one game with the Colts, a loss to the New York Jets on Oct. 14.

quote:You need to read between the lines here man. The entire part that the 6 billion 'bitcoin peasants' will not allow this is how it becomes worthless. The largess of the world's polpulation will not tolerate having a few early adopters be essentially trillionaires and buy up the world's assets. They'll simply adopt some other form of currency, and thus make bitcoins worthless.
quote:939.06 million shares it's already been reached
quote:in which case these bitcoin billionaires will be broke, which is the opposite of what happens in a ponzi scheme.
quote:Hmmm, your whole scenario sounds awfully familiar, it this suppose to be a metaphor?
quote:A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to its investors from their own money or the money paid by subsequent investors, rather than from profit earned by the individual or organization running the operation. The Ponzi scheme usually entices new investors by offering higher returns than other investments, in the form of short-term returns that are either abnormally high or unusually consistent. Perpetuation of the high returns requires an ever-increasing flow of money from new investors to keep the scheme going.[1]
quote:seems like some other fiat currency systems like the US dollar or not?
quote:Yep, bitcoin fits the definition of a Ponzi scheme.
quote:imaginary money
quote:So what I gather from all these bitcoin threads is that bitcoin is nothing more than imaginary money
quote:Money is whatever people want it to be.
quote:that is not backed by a central back
quote:and has no use value to the majority
quote:But his point wasn't really so much about early adopters as it was about those who get in the game much later.

Roberts offers to recite King speech from memory

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- A Kansas State Board of Education member who was criticized for using a racial slur has offered to recite Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech at a public discussion.
Steve Roberts, a Republican from Overland Park, said Monday he would recite King's famous speech from memory at the event Friday if he gets the opportunity, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported (http://bit.ly/14eAslN ). The event is being organized by Topeka activist Sonny Scroggins to discuss the "N-word" and free speech.
Roberts drew criticism in May after he said the "N-word" at a state board meeting during a discussion on African-American history. Roberts said during that discussion that it was the 50th anniversary of King's Letter from Birmingham Jail and that King had used the "N-word" in his letter. He also said it was important to push the boundaries of political correctness.
Ben Scott, past president of the Topeka NAACP, said in May he didn't understand the connection between Roberts' comments, King's letter and the study of history.
"It appears to me in those remarks that it is an attempt to denigrate the reputation of our great leader," said Scott, who addressed the board in April, raising concerns about proper treatment of black history in Kansas schools.
Roberts said he didn't know Scroggins but appreciated his invitation to attend the event Friday. He said he would be happy to recite King's speech, which is one of six documents he has memorized and refers to as "Patriotic Recitations." The other five texts are the Declaration of Independence, a 1787 address by Benjamin Franklin to the constitutional convention, the Bill of Rights, an 1802 letter written by Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
"I feel that these are important things that people ought to know," he said.

Well maybe not too stupid, but stupid enough
It saddened me to have to put the big boy down, but after Ike and the ice-storm, not to mention the 4 70 plus mph wind gust t-storms that caused further damage, it had to be done.
I climbed and removed some huge branches from the last remaining spar, this took two weeks of work, slow, steady, and very careful. When he was neutered down to the last 40 plus feet of spar, I felled him with the stihl, made me sick.
200 Plus year old White Oaks don't grow on trees ya know But he was unsafe especially with my kids playing out back and this whacked out neighbor looking for an insurance payout should he have fallen on his property.
Anyway the bucking and splitting has been going on for days on end, massive tree he was. No worries something I've done too many times to count, all by hand, axe and wedges.........Then it happened, the stupid rookie mistake.
I've been fighting a few things, physically ( nasty cold ) mentally---kids, school, etc..Yet in my need for finishing the job I messed up.
Split a large chunk of the log, heavy, 200 plus lbs. Wedged it and reached in to pull the piece away, only the wedge hung up on the log, probably due to my weakened state of mind. Usually it slides down the split and makes for breaking any hanging fibers with the axe a simple task.
Yes the piece will snap back toward the log you're splitting, no problem when the wedges has slid down the split, big problem when it hangs and wedge meets middle finger when middle finger has no place to go...
You should be thinking " child birth type of pain about now " My threshold is extremely high so I was mostly pissed as hell at myself for being so utterly freaking stupid.
Nail cracked and has become a nice shade of dark Blue/Black....probably lose it in time... After icing the hell out of it for 30 minutes, until it was dead...........I split 3 ricks, maybe 4..almost a cord..
This was three days ago and it still twitches ever now and then..lol
So, so long old friend and thanks for the badge.
Stihl lots and lots of cutting and splitting ahead.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My brother was operated on for rectal cancer and had the anal sphincter removed. I was wondering if you know if anyone does rectal and sphincter reconstruction? Thank you very much.
Najjia N. Mahmoud, MD, Assistant Professor of Surgery at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in the Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery, responds:
Preservation of the anal sphincters and distal rectum is an option for certain people who have mid or high rectal cancers. If the rectal cancer is low or involves the anal sphincters, then complete removal of the rectum is necessary. Sphincter preservation can be done in other diseases, but not in ultra-low rectal cancer involving the muscle, as the chances of recurrence would be unacceptably high, in general. Once the sphincters are removed, there unfortunately is no good way to replace that mechanism, or to create an artificial rectum.
For patients with a permanent colostomy, there are on-line societies and organizations, as well as clubs or meetings in many communities, for dealing with the problems associated with the ostomy. The most well-known group is the United Ostomy Association. Many communities also have nurses or nurse practitioners who specialize in the care of stomas and in helping people with colostomies to solve problems associated with their use.
Jan 20, 2011 - The combination of chemotherapy with intensity-modulated radiation therapy is equally as effective for the treatment of anal cancer after two years as the combination of chemotherapy and conventionally delivered radiation therapy, as well as less toxic, according to a study presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology's annual Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, held from Jan. 20 to 22 in San Francisco.

Every year in the U.S. more than a thousand babies die from unexplained causes. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) happens to babies under the age of one year and has no known cause, even after extensive investigation. Over the years health professionals have encouraged parents to place babies on their backs when putting them to bed at night or for a nap, with no loose blanket or bedding. This simple action has reduced the SIDS rate by 50%. To learn more about ways to ensure that your baby has a safe sleep, visit http://www.nichd.nih.gov/SIDS.
