Restylane & Perlane
Restylane® products are safe and natural dermal fillers that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct facial wrinkles and folds. Made of a substance called hyaluronic acid (a natural and very important part of skin structure), Restylane's job is to replace the natural hyaluronic acid that diminishes with age - or was insufficient to begin with, as is the case with thin lips.
Why is hyaluronic acid important?
Young skin is smooth and elastic and contains a large amount of hyaluronic acid that helps the skin look healthy - almost like jello that's been in the refrigerator. As we grow older, the ability of your skin to produce this "youth" component decreases. What used to be firm jello is now almost melting jello.
Since hyaluronic acid helps to bind water, the ability of the skin to retain water also declines with age. As a result, your skin becomes drier, thinner and less able to restore itself. The loss of skin fullness also means that your skin becomes looser. This leads to wrinkling and an older appearance.
Lots of hyaluronic acid = Youthful skin appearance
The lower layer of your skin, the dermis, contains two protein fibers - collagen and elastin. These fibers support many of the active structures found in the dermal layer of your skin - things like hair follicles, oil glands, sweat glands and blood vessels. You can think of the fibers like the inner walls of a house. When the walls weaken, things start to sag.
When you're young, your body keeps everything hydrated by floating these proteins and skin structures in an "ocean" of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid holds 1000X it's own weight in water so it's an incredible support molecule that helps keep your skin looking young.
Once there is decreased hydration, which happens to all of us as we get older, all these little components weaken and the skin structures lose flexibility. With time and exposure ( to things like sun, smoking, pollution ) we lose all three - the collagen, elastin and that vital hyaluronic acid "ocean". What we get as a replacement are wrinkles and lines and skin that's lost much of it's bounce-back. and firmness.
Important Pre Treatment Instructions
Recreating lost Hyaluronic Acid
Recent advances in technology have made it possible to recreate this hyaluronic acid in a lab and stabilize it to make it more long lasting. It is known as NASHA gel--Non Animal derived Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid--and it enables us to instantly 'add back' what we've lost in a simple quick office procedure.
Hyaluronic acid is such an important part of hydration that it exists in the same form in almost all species on earth, and has been around since the dinosaurs---and now, with these recent remarkable scientific advances, you can essentially stop in and 'get a refill' whenever you need it!

How does Restylane work?
Restylane, and the denser version called Perlane®, are identical content cosmetic dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in your body. The hyaluronic acid also creates volume in your face, giving it a healthy, youthful appearance. Perlane is used for deeper-planed injections where more subdermal support is required and in areas under the eye where surface injections might be noticable. Perlane is sometimes used as a "base" filler which is then topped with a less dense filler such as Restylane or Juvederm.
When Restylane is injected directly into areas where the body's support structures have been weakened, depressions can be raised to the level of surrounding skin. This smoothes and minimizes facial lines and most types of scars. In addition, skin texture is improved and has a softer and more even tone. See how the use of Restylane can improve your looks

Lip & Nose
How is a Restylane procedure performed?
Restylane is injected directly into your skin in tiny amounts by an ultra fine needle or with a tiny flexible cannula, resulting in minimal discomfort. The integration of lidocaine further reduces any potential discomfort. The procedure is simple and quick, and results are practically instantaneous. A "lip block" may be used before the Restylane treatment to optimize your comfort during the short procedure if your treatment is in areas such as the lips or around the mouth. Numbing cream is used for other facial areas. Read about the new Micro-Cannula "needle-less" injection technique.
A Restylane treatment will actually fill the depressions in you skin and smooth out the skin's surface, resulting in the appearance of a more youthful complexion.
Where can Restylane be used?
The areas most commonly treated are:
- the area between the eyebrows
- the nasolabial folds
- the area around the mouth
- lip border definition
- fuller lips
- jowl area
Can I use Restylane with Botox?
Yes, and in many cases Dr. Fitzgerald recommends this wrinkle fighting technique. By preventing extreme muscle movement, the Botox helps the Restylane last longer. It's a synergistic effect that seems to prolong the positive effects of both.
How long will the results of a Restylane treatment last?
Restylane effects last between six and nine months. With a timed program of injections, you can see up effects for up to 18 months.
Will Restylane work for me if I have facial hollows?
Restylane is an excellent wrinkle filler and lip volumizer, but like any filler, it has limitations. If you are experiencing the hollowness in your face that comes with fat loss (again, a natural result of aging for many women and men) you may want to explore a re-volumizer like Sculptra.
Sculptra is a collagen-promoting micro-particle implant that is injected deep in your skin. Results are not immediate as it takes a number of months to become fully evident but the replaced fullness is very long lasting.
Prior to a Restylane treatment, you should avoid taking aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication or vitamin E supplements unless recommended by your doctor. If in doubt, please check with your primary physician before stopping any medications. More about Restylane on the Restylane USA website.

VMware Releases Tools and Acquires Dunes Technologies
VMware has released most of its VMware tools as Open Source. The manufacturer of the popular virtualization software announced this move at the VMworld Conference in San Francisco.
The VMware Tools are software components that run on a guest system within the virtualization solution. According to the manufacturer, the tools boost system performance and simplify management of virtual machines running on VMware.
Distributors will now be able to integrate the free VMware technology with the free Linux operating system under the name of Open Virtual Machine (VM) Tools. Other Open Source virtualization projects can use the technology under GPLv2 and compatible licenses. According to Stephen Herrod, Vice President for Technological Development with VMware, the company hopes to serve a wider range of guest operating systems and additional virtual applications by taking this step.
VMware is currently working with Linux distributors Novell, Red Hat and Ubuntu on integrating VMware Tools directly with the installation routines for the Linux operating system. According to Novell manager Holger Dyroff, Open VM Tools will become part of the Suse Linux Enterprise Platform, and Red Hat's Vice President Scott Crenshaw was delighted with the greater choice of virtualization software for Linux users. Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of the Ubuntu operating system, announced the inclusion of VMware Tools with future Ubuntu versions: "Open VM Tools give us the ability to offer users of the Ubuntu operating system a turnkey solution."
The Open VM Tools source code is available on the Open Source portal, Sourceforge. The vendor's Virtual Machine Interface (VMI) has been Open Source for awhile now, and became part of the Linux kernel in March 2007.
And there was more news from the VMworld Conference: VMware is purchasing Swiss virtualization solution supplier Dunes Technologies and will be adding the Dunes management software for virtual environments to its own portfolio in future. Additionally, Dunes technology now gives VMware a solution capable of managing virtual machines throughout their lifecycle. Financial details on the acquisition were not disclosed.

Since Sherdog has started ranking fighters I thought I'd do some comparison charts with their rankings against MMA Weekly and 411 Mania. Here's the heavyweights:
411 Mania | Sherdog | MMA Weekly |
Fedor Emelianenko | Fedor Emelianenko | Fedor Emelianenko |
Antonio Rodrigo Noguiera | Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira | Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira |
Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic | Gabriel Gonzaga | Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic |
Josh Barnett | Mirko Filipovic | Josh Barnett |
Gabriel Gonzaga | Josh Barnett | Randy Couture |
Randy Couture | Randy Couture | Gabriel Gonzaga |
Tim Sylvia | Tim Sylvia | Tim Sylvia |
Andrei Arlovski | Andrei Arlovski | Andrei Arlovski |
Aleksander Emelianenko | Fabricio Werdum | Fabricio Werdum |
Brandon Vera | Aleksander Emelianenko | Aleksander Emelianenko |
Everybody agrees about the top two, but I gotta differ with 411 and MMA Weekly ranking Cro Cop over Gonzo. I think it's been pretty well established how that one comes out. I think 411 has Brandon Vera pretty overranked at 10.
The UFC has 8 of these 11 fighters signed. The Emelianenko brothers and Josh Barnett being the only ones unsigned at this time. This is one division where I'd like to see the UFC have a monopoly but I bet they blow it with Fedor and continue to diss Josh. Lame.
As far as upcoming matches featuring ranked fighters, we've obviously got Couture vs Gonzaga at the end of this month for the UFC belt. Cro Cop is fighting the unranked Chiek Kongo in September at UFC 75 -- a loss could drop him from contention. Tim Sylvia will be fighting at UFC 77 -- here's hoping its against Werdum. And Arlovski and Vera will be meeting at UFC 78 in November. Cro Cop is rumored to be first in line for a title shot if he gets past Kongo. No word on what's next for Big Nog.

U.S. says market access for China tied to key issues
- Tweet
- Share this
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - The United States is willing to open up its markets to China and give it more access to U.S. technologies if Beijing makes progress on key issues, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said on Thursday.
"We are willing to continue to make progress on these issues, but our ability to do so will depend in part on how much progress we see from China on issues that are important to us," Geithner said ahead of government meetings in Beijing next week.
Geithner said China's financial system is still dominated by large state-owned banks that favor lending to large state-owned companies, and he urged the country to raise the ceiling on deposit rates so that Chinese households could earn a higher return on their savings.
Higher deposit rates would help reduce the need of Chinese households to save, increase their income and their ability to consume goods and services, including those from the United States, he told the Commonwealth Club of California.
Geithner pledged that the United States would continue to push aggressively for fair treatment of U.S. companies doing business with China, and he repeated that China's currency, the renminbi, needed to appreciate more rapidly.
A stronger, more market-determined renminbi will provide China the "independence and flexibility to respond to future changes in growth and inflation," he said.
Geithner said China had made significant progress on a number of U.S. objectives, including opening up new sectors of its economy to foreign firms and committing to improve the protection of U.S. intellectual property rights.
China also eased some restrictions on its currency by doubling the size of the yuan's trading band against the dollar.
"The economic relationship between the United States and China provides significant benefits to both our nations. Even though we compete in many areas, our economic strengths are largely complementary," he said.
Geithner and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will meet with their Chinese counterparts next week as part of a series of ongoing talks designed to strengthen ties between the world's two largest economies.
U.S. lawmakers acknowledged that the majority of states and congressional districts were benefiting from a jump in U.S. exports to China, but said more had to be done to open Chinese markets to American goods and services.
Foreign banks and institutions "currently face a nearly impossible uphill struggle in the Chinese marketplace," Democratic Senator Mark Warner and Republican Senator Mike Johanns said in a letter to Geithner this week.

Saurabh's Thoughts on Texas State
Why Texas State
Texas State University has one of the best creative writing programs in the nation. It is always a budding writer's dream to interact closely with the best contemporary writers. The MFA fiction program here, under the visionary leadership of Tom Grimes, also includes Tim O'Brien, Dagoberto Gilb, Tom Grimes and Debra Monroe. My first semester here I had a class with Tim O'Brien, one of my favorite writers. Besides the enriching intellectual experience that such close interaction results in, the presence of such well-regarded faculty motivates me to have a strong work ethic and strive for perfection of prose in my stories. Further, one of the unique features of the program is that writers who come to speak on campus also hold workshops with students.
Why I Chose Creative Writing
I changed majors multiple times as an undergraduate before finally settling on writing and economics with a math minor at St. Lawrence University in New York. I'd gone to college with the goal of being a computer science major, but switching to writing was an easy choice for me. I've always loved writing. Writing, for me, is more than just telling a story. It is about striving for change and empowering the voiceless and the marginalized. My challenge as a writer is to get my ideas across in an entertaining manner!
Career Goals
Ideally, I want to write a bestseller and retire early, so I can spend the rest of my life traveling and writing! I'm also interested in working on a political campaign full-time later this year after graduation.
Best Studying Advice
Just do it! It is important to get in the habit of making time for studying.

Favorite San Marcos Hangouts
I've grown to love I-Hop and Taco Cabana. I never thought I'd appreciate a 99-cent breakfast burrito as much as I do now.
What I Like Most About Texas State
I experience both the comforts of a small program and the resources of a large university. A large campus certainly has its advantages, and a lot is happening throughout the semester. The small size of my own program, creative writing, allows us to get to know each other closely. We're all writers who are passionate about the language and appreciative of good writing.
The biggest advantage of working with like-minded students is that the shared camaraderie transcends beyond the immediate classes. The many friends I have made in the program are also my trusted readers whose feedback I'll continue to solicit long after I graduate.
Further, the MFA faculty is an integral part of the experience. In spite of being busy writers themselves, they're available to us for advice and help at all times, going above and beyond giving comments on assignments; they want us to fully develop as writers. The amount of time the creative writing faculty spends working with the students at Texas State is amazing. In my first class here, with Tim O' Brien, he went beyond the classroom time to help me with my novel, reading rewrites and even extra chapters. Dr. Debra Monroe practically copy edits the manuscript, going through each line! My thesis advisor, Tom Grimes, took me on while he was on sabbatical and has been very encouraging in his comments as I work toward editing my novel.

Does my red Wii have enough memory preinstalled to download , if I buy a wii points card ???
Does my red Wii have enough memory preinstalled to download , if I buy a wii points card ???
There's enough storage already in the Wii to hold a pretty good amount of downloaded VC games, so I wouldn't worry about getting a memory card until you actually need it. The Shopping Channel will tell you how many blocks of memory are needed for each download and will tell you if you don't have enough.
You need a Nintendo Club Account which is free (If you don't already have one, Nintendo.com, Tab that says Club Nintendo).
Once you have an account you can purchuse any VC game, your Wii already contains 512MB of storage. If you purchuse N64 Games, you do have enough for a few to be saved directly to the system, but I'd recommend a 2-4GB Memory card for later purchuses knowing those files are big (Especially some WiiWare Games).
It might be that people don't have to do it anymore. When I paid for my system at $249.99, I went into VC and Nintendo required the user (Me) to enter a Club Nintendo Account. I couldn't buy want I wanted until I entered in my Club Nintendo account.
Interesting. It seems unlikely that Nintendo would require the use of a computer before utilizing one of their products. All I can say is I've had mine since early '07 and Club Nintendo did not yet exist. I know I'm going way off topic here, but this is causing me to recall the Nintendo forum. That was the best. I miss it so.

Green Party Candidate Jill Stein Visits 'Moyers & Company'Posted on Sep 10, 2012
Now that the Democrats and Republicans have had their presidential nominating conventions, it's time to hear from those voicing political opinions of parties besides the two major ones. With their ideology clearly outside the traditional, confined box of politics, Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein and her running mate, Cheri Honkala, fit the bill perfectly, which is why they were two of the featured guests interviewed by Bill Moyers on this past weekend's "Moyers & Company." Among the topics discussed were how they got politically involved. Stein is a doctor specializing in environmental health, and Honkala is a single mother who was once homeless. As they tell Moyers, their personal experiences dramatically influenced and shaped their beliefs and the causes for which they fight. Watch the segment: —Posted by Tracy Bloom.

U-17/18 Finals Week Notes
Get a preview of the upcoming week's worth of matches between the older Academy group's final eight teams.

• Crossfire Premier has come on strong of late after finishing fourth in the Northwest Division, taking a wild card berth all the way through Playoffs.
• FC Dallas enters Finals Week on an 11-game winning streak that at one point included four consecutive shutouts.
• CASL Chelsea FC has 10 draws on the season, but still finished near the top of the competitive Atlantic Division with 15 wins and only four losses.
• Real So Cal went through the highly competitive SoCal Division with an impressive 21-3-5 overall record on the season, and won all three games in Greensboro.
• The potent Concorde Fire offense scored 75 goals in 30 games during the regular season, and kept up that pace in Greensboro with eight goals in three games.
• One of two teams from Michigan (along with the Derby County Wolves), Vardar qualified for its first-ever Finals Week by finishing atop a highly competitive Playoff group that concluded with a thrilling 3-2 win against FC Milwaukee.
• The Bays will be looking to return to the top of the U-17/18 podium after a 2008 championship, and carry an impressive 20-4-6 regular season record into The HDC.
KEEP UP WITH CARSON: U.S. Soccer will produce six shows during the course of Finals Week, keeping fans up to date on the results and standings, while providing an in-depth analysis of key matches by youth national team coaches and technical advisors. Fans can expect a closer look at what's going on at Finals Week with interviews with coaches, players, technical experts and youth national team coaches.
PLAYOFFS RECAP: Every game during the 2010 Academy Playoffs was important as no Finals Week berths were clinched until the last day of games. The Baltimore Bays, Derby County Wolves, FC Dallas, Real So Cal and Concorde Fire each won all three games in Greensboro to win their respective groups, setting up 16 highly competitive matches at The Home Depot Center.

Yes, I am sure, because I used it with my Nokia 6300 cell phone. I have never checked it in the listings, though. It just worked "out of the box".
Have You tried it with any device or just checked the outputs?
Anyway, sound issue "is" resolved with Ubuntu 9.10, furthermore the open source radeon driver gives 2D acceleration.
Sorry , but are you sure bluebooth is working? I didnt find any device in

I hope that my description will be helpful.
If someone succeeds in bringing to life the sound please let me know how You did it. Thanks in advance!

Hexagon Spy Satellite
Raleigh, North Carolina Saturday, December 1, 2012
David Waltrop of the CIA's Historical Division talks about the retrieval of a U.S. spy satellite from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. In 1972, the CIA and U.S. Navy gathered the remains of the Hexagon Spy Satellite, which contained images of Soviet missile sites and was considered highly important to American intelligence. The retrieval was classified up until August 2012. This event was part of the Raleigh Spy Conference.

Art historian Joseph Manca talks about George Washington, the gentleman designer -- and about how the grounds and architecture at Mount Vernon, his Virginia home, reflect the independence and democratic ideals of the young country he led in war and peace. Washington, as Mr. Manca puts it, was building "a new American garden" that rejected European extravagance for what was called a "plain and neat" sensibility more suited to a republic. Mr. Manca spoke at Mount Vernon's new National Library for the Study of George Washington.

Hari Jones of the African American Civil War Memorial and Museum delivers a two-part talk about African American intelligence and espionage efforts on behalf of the Union leading up to and through the war. In part one, he details the pre-existing networks of people of African descent in the United States, and how those "knowledge circles," as he calls them, were the foundations for the "Loyal League," a secret national organization of slaves, servants, and freedmen who contributed to the Union cause, and viewed the Civil War as the ultimate means of ending slavery. In part two, he details the activities and movements of specific African Americans on both sides of the lines during the war. The Historical Society of Washington, DC and the International Spy Museum co-hosted this event.
Anthony Lewis (1927-2013), a New York Times columnist, discussed his book "Make No Law: The Sullivan Case and the First Amendment." In 1960 Alabama Commissioner L.B.

Speaker: | Dean Wilkening, Theodore Postol, Michael Nacht |
Affiliation: | Various |
Contact Person: | Sarah Wittmer (510) 642-3034 |
Details: | The Administration of George W. Bush withdrew unilaterally from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty in the interest of national security, then deployed partially tested anti-ballistic missiles in Alaska in anticipation of a nuclear threat from North Korea, then proposed a "third site" for missile defense based in Europe in anticipation of an Iranian threat, which antagonized Russia. The Administration of Barack Obama has made changes in anti-missile policy, but in certain ways has continued on a similar path. The leading issues confronting these policies will be discussed by Michael Nacht of the University of California (Berkeley), Dean Wilkening of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Theodore Postol of MIT.

MLB Real Talk: Opening Shots
And from the fog, a hero emerges...
Photo Credit: dbking
Though the season is only a couple of days old, fantasy owners already have a lot of questions about players off to noteworthy starts. While some say you should stand pat with your roster for at least a couple of weeks, your boy Stat Bundles advises otherwise. I'm not saying you should completely make over your roster by adding all waiver wire dudes, but let's face it, every one of us has at least two disposable commodities on each team. If someone really interesting crops up on waivers, do not hesitate to dump one of your last rung losers for him. Championships aren't won in April? Tell that to the people who picked up Jose Bautista two years ago.
More after the jump:
-I talked about how strange it was to roster Chone Figgins in all of my mixed league rosters prior to Opening Day, but it's looking like a pretty damn smart move in hindsight. Figgins did jack shit in the Japan series, but he's collected three hits in each of the last two games as Seattle's leadoff hitter. He was my choice at 3B for the official "sleeper" tag, but to be honest, I wasn't expecting him to just completely reinvigorate his career. The price was just too good to pass up this year, which made him an attractive fantasy option. Still, any time you have a leadoff hitter with 30 SB wheels and a contact rate capable of yielding a high BA, you have to at least be intrigued. He's still available in 87 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Sure he has no power and is coming off two atrocious seasons, but he'll have plenty of value if he returns to his former three-cat glory days.
-Fuck Chad Billingsley. Not personally, just as a fantasy option. If you can sell-high off one start at spacious Petco Park, do so... now. The chronic underachiever has these great starts from time-to-time, but his K/9 has declined each of the last three years and he has just one sub-1.30 WHIP season under his belt. I suppose an ERA in the high 3.00s is possible, but odds are he'll once again be rotation filler at the back end of your pitching staff in 2012.
-Remember a couple of months ago when people were actually trying to sell that first base wasn't as deep as in years past and that there should be more of an emphasis on spending on the big guns? Well, Adam Dunn, Carlos Pena, Adam LaRoche, and Lucas Duda were all part of this so-called "poor" first base crop, and they're all looking like great cheap buys right now. Each of them has homered already (Duda twice yesterday), and LaRoche is still available in almost all leagues. Want some other cheap 1B names? Well, while these dudes are not killing it early, they are all widely available and could offer up some cheap pop: Shelley Duncan, Luke Scott, Aubrey Huff, and Garrett Jones. When you can think of four players at a position who are owned in over 90 percent of leagues that can be useful, the position they are playing is not shallow.
-Myself and Million Dollar Sleeper took sides in a Gio Gonzalez vs. Madison Bumgarner beef, but both pitchers got lit up like joints at an Allman Brothers concert. Here are the lines:
Neo-Gio: 3.2 IP, 4 ERs, 7 Hs, 3 BBs, 6 Ks
MadBum: 4 IP, 4 ERs, 2 HRs, 7 Hs, 2 BBs, 3 Ks
This ain't ovah. Being a Gio supporter, I have to point out that he gave up zero bombs in Saturday's outing and did rack up the Ks. Of course, Bumgarner started off slow last year but went on to have a dominant second half. Again, this ain't ovah.
-Speaking of Bumgarner sucking, Aaron Hill smacked two bombs off him yesterday and should really be owned in more leagues. Hill has been an inconsistent fantasy option during his major league career, but we've seen him put up serious power numbers before and he even added SBs to his arsenal last year. With Chase Field as his home park, 25 or more HRs are definitely in play.
-I'm still not 100-percent sold on Yoenis Cespedes, but the power is for real. 25-plus HRs are at hand, but expect a ton of strikeouts and a boom-or-bust player to the fullest. As the season wears on and pitchers pick up on his tendencies, he may get exposed. Me? I'd be looking to deal him relatively soon while his value and legend are at soaring heights.
-Don't get too carried away with Raul Ibanez. He had a nice debut and his swing is a good fit in Yankee Stadium, but aside from some easy HRs, the guy just isn't that nice. The Yankees already revealed that when they face lefties, Alex Rodriguez or Derek Jeter will DH most days while Andruw Jones and Eduardo Nunez will see PAs. Ibanez is looking like a platoon option and at a position as deep as OF, you can do better. See if you can pawn him off to some Yankee homer.

Correlative studies
Detailed Description:
I. To determine whether Akt inhibitor MK2206 achieves objective tumor responses (complete response [CR], partial response [PR]) in advanced breast cancer patients who have a phosphoinositide-3-kinase, catalytic, alpha polypeptide (PIK3CA) or Akt mutation and/or phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) loss or mutation.
I. To determine the 6 month progression-free survival on MK2206. II. To determine baseline molecular markers that may predict clinical outcome. III. To determine pharmacodynamic markers in blood and tumor tissue that may predict a decrease in Ki-67 and clinical outcome.
IV. To determine safety and tolerability of MK2206 in previously treated patients with advanced breast cancer.
V. To determine if decrease in Ki-67 at 2 weeks correlates with anti-tumor effect (CR, PR, or stable disease [SD] > 6 months).
VI. To determine concordance of PIK3CA and PTEN status between primary tumor and distant metastasis.
VII. To determine concordance of PIK3CA status of circulating free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and distant metastasis.
Patients receive Akt Inhibitor MK-2206 orally (PO) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 3 weeks.
Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed breast cancer, with diagnosed or suspected metastatic, inoperable locally advanced breast cancer, or inoperable locally recurrent breast cancer
- Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as > 20 mm with conventional techniques or as > 10 mm with spiral computed tomography (CT) scan
- Patients who have failed to respond to at least one line of systemic therapy are eligible for MK2206 therapy; if the patient has a HER2 positive tumor, it is expected that they will have received at least one HER2-targeted therapy in the metastatic setting; if the patient has an ER+ tumor, it is expected that they will have received at least one ER-targeted therapy in the metastatic setting; patients can be enrolled for molecular screening while on another therapy if the patient is interested in MK2206 therapy upon progression
- Archived primary tumor biopsies or surgical specimens, or biopsies of recurrence or metastasis, will be available for PIK3CA/Akt mutational analysis and PTEN analysis; patients with surgical samples, or core/punch biopsies available, will be eligible for testing for PIK3CA/Akt status as well as PTEN testing; the most recent sample will be preferred (i.e. in patients with metastatic disease, metastases samples are preferred over archival primary tumor and in patients with local recurrences a biopsy of the recurrence is preferred over archival primary tumor); NOTE: PIK3CA or Akt mutation status can be determined on FNA samples, but PTEN status cannot as stroma and endothelial cells are used as internal controls and PTEN testing has not been validated on FNA samples; thus patients with only FNA samples and no tissue blocks available will be considered to be eligible for screening for PIK3CA/Akt mutations and will be enrolled onto the study only if they are found to have PIK3CA mutations or Akt mutations; patients whose tumors have already been tested in the CLIA environment and have been found to have a PIK3CA mutation or Akt mutation or PTEN loss will be eligible for treatment; patients whose tumors have been tested in the research environment and found to have a PIK3CA mutation or Akt mutation or PTEN loss will have their marker status confirmed in the CLIA environment
- Patients whose tumors have already been tested in the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) environment and have been found to have a PIK3CA mutation or Akt mutation or PTEN loss or mutation will be eligible for treatment; patients whose tumors have been tested in the research environment and found to have a PIK3CA mutation or Akt mutation or PTEN loss or mutation will have their marker status confirmed in the CLIA environment
- Patient will have a tumor suitable for fine needle aspirate (FNA) and/or core/punch biopsy for research purposes
- Patient must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1,000 /μL
- Platelets >= 100,000 / μL
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) >= 9 g/dL
- Creatinine =< 1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Prothrombin time (PT), partial thromboplastin time (PTT) =< 1.2 X ULN
- Total bilirubin =< 1.5 X ULN
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) < 2.5 X ULN
- Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) within 72 hours prior to study registration
- The effects of MK2206 on the developing human fetus at the recommended therapeutic dose are unknown; for this reason, women of childbearing potential and men must use two forms of contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation and also for 4 weeks after the end of therapy; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, the patient should inform the treating physician immediately
- Patient must have completed any systemic therapy regimens and therapeutic radiation a minimum of 21 days prior to initiation of study therapy
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
- >= 6 months life expectancy as documented in patient records
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 3 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events to grade 1 or less due to agents administered more than 3 weeks earlier
- Patients may have received prior investigational therapies; however, they not be receiving any other investigational agents concurrent with MK2206; patients must have completed therapy a minimum of 21 days prior to initiation of study therapy
- Patients may not have received treatment with another inhibitor of PI3K, Akt or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant or metastatic setting with the exception of rapalogs; patients with metastatic breast cancer, who received PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitors on short preoperative window trials (treatment for 4 weeks or less), will be eligible if the treatment was over 6 months prior to registration; patients must have completed therapies a minimum of 21 days prior to initiation of study therapy
- Patients with known brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events; patients will not undergo pre-treatment imaging of the brain, unless clinically indicated
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to MK2206 or other agents used in the study
- Patients receiving any medications or substances that are potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP 450 3A4 are ineligible; however, patients will be permitted regular dietary consumption of caffeine; glyburide will be allowed for the treatment of hyperglycemia
- Preclinical studies demonstrated the potential of MK2206 for induction of hyperglycemia in all preclinical species tested; patients with diabetes or in risk for hyperglycemia should not be excluded from trials with MK2206, but patients with poorly controlled diabetes (HBA1C > 8%) should be excluded
- Preclinical studies indicated transient changes in QTc interval during MK2206 treatment; prolongation of QTc interval is potentially a safety concern while on MK2206 therapy; cardiovascular: baseline QTcF > 450 msec (male) or QTcF >470 msec (female) will exclude patients from entry on study
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
- Baseline bradycardia related to cardiac disease, or significant bundle branch block
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because MK2206 is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with MK2206, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with MK2206
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with MK2206; in addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy; appropriate studies will be undertaken in patients receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when indicated
- Patients at high risk for coagulopathy
- Liver disease burden greater or equal to 50 percent
- Need for blood or platelet transfusion within one month from baseline laboratory testing as well as within treatment initiation

Wound Causes and TypesWounds occur when the skin is broken or damaged because of injury. The skin can be damaged in a variety of ways depending upon the mechanism of injury.
Proper wound care is necessary to prevent infection, assure there are no other associated injuries, and to promote healing of the skin. An additional goal, if possible, is to have a good cosmetic result after the wound has completely healed. This wound care article is designed to present information on wounds involving mainly the skin; it is not meant to cover all wounds (for example, gunshot, degloving wounds, tendon lacerations, and others).

Album Rating: 3.5Cheers guys! Agreed about that album art too.
Album Rating: 4.0'Ambient music is open, it lacks structure, it's ambiguous and it thrives off textures, and it's pretty much everything that pop music isn't.' Nice contrast. "it prefers to lurk in the background and swirl and ebb and flow, like a river slowly eroding a rock into a pebble over hundreds of years, where, at its completion you marvel at the process and the way in which it achieved the end result." Genius. "Witxes occasionally allow the mists to clear and you are treated to a glimpse of daylight through smooth jazz, as saxophones permeate the all encompassing denseness and provide brief reprieves from the eeriness, most notably on "Canyon Improbable."" One of my favorite elements. Fantastic review. This greatly needed one. Pos'd hard.Digging: Emancipator - Soon It Will Be Cold Enough
