iOS 5 said to sport over-the-air update facility
Apple's iOS 5 will support over-the-air firmware updates, it has been claimed. So say "multiple sources" - none named, mind - who've spoken to 9to5 Mac. Once iOS 5.0 has been installed on devices using the customary method based on iTunes, iOS 5.0.1 or whatever comes next will be pushed direct to handsets. Presumably punters …
As usual
Welcome to several years ago, Apple. I don't even remember the last phone I had which wasn't happy to update itself OTA.
Bet they'll trumpet it as a new thing, and the fanbois will bleat about how innovative Apple are, while the rest of us just go "oh, you didn't have that already? how quaint."
I welcome your downvotes.
Perhaps they're getting a clue
iTunes is bloatware and an enormous millstone for people who (reasonably) expect to be able to use a device without tethering it to a PC to do anything except transfer files. Who knows, perhaps this is baby steps towards Apple making iTunes completely optional and eventually superfluous.
I can't think much reason it has to stay around these days - the phone should be able to handle things like downloads & purchases for itself, and the cloud can do the rest. Of course cloud based computing has its own issues for privacy and price. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple try and reposition iTunes as a cloud proxy.
iTunes will stay
iTunes and the idea of having to plug your device to a PC/Mac is the basis of entire control/rip/unofficial media monopoly model of Apple. For example, you can use a Nokia smart phone or even a good dumb phone without plugging it to PC for all its life even including purchasing/downloading original music. There is absolutely no reason other than convinience and/or greedy operator to plug a Nokia to PC. On an iPod, without gsm/3g connectivity (there goes operator excuse), you can't even download freely available podcasts. Why? Think about it.
Also, they really code very badly on Windows, they don't respect to the very basic development model of Windows and they code like UNIX, that is where the problem begins. If you code for Windows, code like Windows.
Man this was a real "thumbs down" suicide ;)
Haterz gonna...
> "On an iPod, without gsm/3g connectivity (there goes operator excuse), you can't even download freely available podcasts. Why? Think about it."
My God you're right - clearly Apple are abusing their monopoly and somehow making money by supplying iTunes for free and forcing you to use it for free to download free podcasts (unless of course you use on of the free podcast apps instead of course).
> "There is absolutely no reason .."
There is.
Apple's approach is to do things Apple's "one true way" in their own closed systems.
Which is why so many people hate them - but removing those external factors is a massive part of their overall attempt to simplify tech and make things that "just work".
You might not like that approach. Many don't. But that kind of closed approach is the reason my old mum can work her iPhone but not her TV remote.
This almost never happens
"Bet they'll trumpet it as a new thing"
This almost never happens. In fact, sometimes Apple acknowledge that they've been left behind.
Usually, when you read an Apple hater's comment complaining that Apple is claiming to have invented something that was already commonplace, that comment has no basis in fact. It was made up. Other times, they're reacting to the media reaction rather than what Apple themselves are saying.
Oh they'll claim they INVENTED it
no doubt their Pavlovian userbase will believe it too
Apple's misleading claims
From www.apple.com/iphone/features/facetime.html
"People have been dreaming about video calling for decades. iPhone 4 makes it a reality. "
As we all know, phones that could make video calls had been around for years before the iPhone 4 "made it a reality."
Is this not deliberately misleading? (aka blatant lie)
Pavlovian, yes, good answer
We all operate on conditioned habit for the trivial and mundane tasks in life. Saving our higher conscious mind for the less repetitive tasks which require analysis. So you have hit the nail on the head.Apple's success is in understanding you have to provide tools which integrate with habit and place as little demand on higher cognitive function as possible. The tool fades into the background like the ticking of a clock, enabling you to simply accomplish the task you wish to accomplish. This is why Apple fans are indeed Pavlovian. The only problem with your argument is you are equally as Pavlovian as me as me. We are all creatures of habit. Habitual conditioning allows us to apply our mind less to repetitive simple tasks and more to the kind of complex tasks which require analysis. The real difference isn't that Apple users are Pavlovian and others are not. It's that some people actually like tools which require application of the higher mind and don't mind having to think about the tools they use because they enjoy the attention the tools require as much as actually getting things done (Apple users tend not to be in this camp). But let's face it, that's often what psychologists refer to as busyness (not to be confused with business) e.g. the tendency to attend to tasks which occupy the mind but don't actually make us more productive. Though, not always, also it can be a symptom of someone who wants a more intricate tool for a more specialist task and values ease of use less than that it helps them with their specialist requirement. I know you were only being disparaging and aren't as clever as you think you are, but you really have hit the nail on the head. I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Apple's misleading claims, explained
"People have been dreaming about video calling for decades. iPhone 4 makes it a reality."
Apple have defined *a* reality, not *the* reality. And in Apple's reality, phones can now make video calls; in your reality, other phones may well have been doing this a for a while.
Much better now.
"On an iPod, without gsm/3g connectivity (there goes operator excuse), you can't even download freely available podcasts. Why? Think about it."
I've thought about and decided that since I *can* download free podcasts on my iPod using WiFi, you're just making stuff up.
Does your Nokia dumb phone accept over-the-air firmware upgrades then?
I pity the entire industry
They managed to gather, all rivals and networks and came up with 3G video telephony standard. They also managed to stop companies doing stupid stuff like "super enhanced video only between nokias". It is an amazing accomplishment to manage.
Now a company comes up with a complete monopolistic, single brand only solution and there isn't a single word from the industry or anyone who would whine "standards" if any other company did it.
I hate Google guys but their chat/video/talk team did a real heroic job tying everything to open standards, XMPP to begin with. We see who wins. Even Skype begun to lose entire mobile scene with their stupid "we code the clients" new policy.
Boilerplate bollocks.
Yawn. Next...
Your comment is disproved by trivial research. From the Apple-specific websites that have reported the rumour:
9to5mac, from where the story originates: "Apple has long used the proxy of iTunes to push updates to its iOS devices ... Smartphone competitors have long offered a different, more direct method for software updates that happens over-the-air."
Mac Rumors headline: "iOS 5 to Finally Deliver Over-The-Air Updates?"
MacWorld: "Other smartphone operating systems such as Android can be updated over-the-air,"
GigaOm: "Smaller, incremental updates like those served to Android might be the way to go, but that would require a significant change in the way Apple approaches updates "
Welcome to 2009, Apple.
It wouldn't be the first time Apple have pushed out a standard feature as something 'new'. A welcome break away from iTunes though. All Apple needs to do now is re-brand the Mac App store as the Apple App store, and shift iOS apps onto that platrform, which makes much more sense.
While the Mac App Store almost surprises by being quick and snappy (though it shouldn't; this is just comparing it to iTunes), it is as the name suggests Mac only. So the Windows people, for whom iTunes performs about a thousand times worse still, would be left out.
That said, the handset itself has a pretty good client — maybe leave iTunes to back up and possibly to organise, but otherwise keep itself out of the software side of any of Apple's network connected devices? If ever an application could do with having its functionality pruned, it's iTunes.
Black Helicopters
So when will OTA stop being the "recommended" update method and start being the "required" update method. Will be a kick in the gonads to the jailbreakers.
Not sure I want this
Sure hooking up to iTunes to update is a bit of a pain - BUT its big advantage is that your entire phone contents are safely backed up should anything go horribly pear-shaped with the update.
And that's useful. I had an update completely brick my iPhone about a year ago.
Quick trip to the local Apple Store, who replaced it on the spot with a brand new one, then back home, plugged it into iTunes which completely restored it from the backup.
Result: shiny new phone with EXACTLY the same contents as the old one.
So unless this OTA update offers some way to backup (and I'm not sure it can) then I'll be sticking to tethered updates thanks.
"And that's useful. I had an update completely brick my iPhone about a year ago."
Many, many people experienced this or a subset of this on upgrading to iOS 3.x as I recall. Didn't brick it, but lost all the data. Had three friends email out after upgrading to say "lost all my contacts when updating iPhone, please email me your number". I pointed out they'd probably backed it up inadvertently and got a lot of gratutude in my direction (though one poor sap had always cancelled the backup process).
Has happened to me on 3 occasions (turned out to be a dodgy USB cable causing it) and the restore helped every time!
Small patch?
No Apple iOS update i've ever downloaded has been a small patch. They've always been 600MB+ behemoths. Unless Apple discover how to efficiently patch iOS i will be sticking to an iTunes-induced patch, thanks. Which will also backup my phone's data to my computer prior to it being updated. I don't fancy a "MobileMe" backup of my handset to the cloud prior to iOS update. I'd be there all week!
This is awsome
I look forward to O2 seamlessly sending out 600Mb updates to all its millions of customers. Hell, they can't even deliver texts on time.
There is a restriction on the size of file that can be downloaded from the App and iTunes store onto the handset over 3G. I can almost guarantee you that the same will apply for OTA updates. I doubt it'd be a telco issuing the update either, that's (thankfully) not Apple's MO. I suppose that doesn't fit you "comedic" polemic though.
Check a friend's dumb Nokia S40
Almost all Nokia S40 phones comes with OTA firmware updates even with an option to check monthly as default. I haven't heard a single S40 update went wrong either. We speak about 500M devices here, we would sure hear smallest single glitch.
This is nothing more than anti jailbreak very fast action.
Try READING next time before ranting. The article explains to you, in words, in English that they already have that ability, its just not used on the iPhone yet. "Apple already has this technology in place in iOS: it's how the iOS-based second-generation Apple TV updates itself."
Why are Apple so slow to stop being stupid?
"As it stands, a small tweak to the OS... ...involves the entire OS being swapped out when all that may have changed is a few kilobytes of code. "
Don't forget they use UNIX model too
The basic reason that people can easily update their iOS devices is the UNIX model of doing things.
Everything is in their place, especially with app store model. So, user data is absolutely in seperate place and caches are also in that folder, which can be easily ignored.
So, update process does download that gigantic file to itunes, asks Apple "serial nr is this, user is signed on, no mysterious process running. Should I go on?". Backs up the /Users (that is the only thing), likely ignores /Caches, puts that entire gigantic image to device telling it to program rom. Puts users back to place.
Same process could easily ask for patch between certain versions (games do it for decades), use standard diff like app to create new image and verify the result with Apple and do the drm thing.
You know what? They wasted petabytes of bandwidth (and users) for a single thing. Not to allow unencyripted os image to be stored in a real pc/mac.
Worse-than-useless update methodology.
Explain something to me. My wife and I have an iPad. My wife likes hers so much, she went out and got a Mac laptop to be able to use the iOS SDK to write stuff for her iPad.
Why is it that iTunes (or its Mac laptop ilk) can pause, stop and restart iTunes/AppStore downloads, but if something happens during the download of the iPad firmware (or the SDK, as we've found out 3/4 of the way through the 4Gb download) you have to start the download *from the beginning again*?
Small apps download have the ability to restart, but apparently 600Mb/4Gb downloads don't need it? Stupid.

Volleyball open gym
The final open gym session for girls who aspire to play volleyball for Ramona High School will take place Dec. 17 in the school's new gym.
The Saturday sessions, which began Dec. 3, will conclude Saturday, although the first two Saturdays of January will be assessment sessions for girls interested in playing on one of Ramona's Amateur Athletic Union teams. The AAU teams will be formed based on age, skill and experience. No experience is necessary to attend Saturday's open gym session.
"It's an opportunity to get ready for tryouts and to explore playing before trying out," said Connie Halfaker, Ramona High School varsity volleyball coach. "Kids that have never played before are welcome."
Halfaker will be at Saturday's open gym session, as will junior varsity head coach Kyle Adelman and varsity assistant coach Adrian Papps. The session for fifth-grade and sixth-grade girls will be from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. while the session for seventh-grade and eighth-grade players will be from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. There is no charge for the open gym session, which includes coaching tips, although there will be a cost for participation in the AAU leagues.

Casual Friday: Ankle cowboy boots from River Island
Something a little different for this week's 'Casual Friday' column...
Nothing says "relaxed chic" quite like a pair of beat-up old cowboy boots, and while these ones from River Island certainly won't start out looking worn-in, it won't take too long for you to give them that "well loved" look, and they'll only get better with age, meaning you can justify the £74.99 price tag on a "cost by wear" basis. These are a great buy for winter: although cowboy boots faded off the fashion radar a couple of years ago, they never really go out of style, and are great for pulling on over jeans on those days when you're kicking back and relaxing in fine, casual Friday style.

Greetings all,
Here is an exciting summer opportunity that could certainly inspire some Native students! Please read and share with others.
Prof. Lechusza Aquallo
Ayukîi, Greetings,
The Karuk Youth Leadership Council (Skyler McNeal, Krista Reynolds, Summer Goodwin, Sinéad Talley, Geena Talley, Jared Wilder, David Burlew, and Jolie Super) has been invited to Washington D.C. from May 31st to June 2nd to visit the White House and attend a function related to Michelle Obama's "Let's Move! In Indian Country " program; in part because an article by Maymi Preston-Donahue about one of our activities, a 12-mile run from Independence to Happy Camp with Karuk Tribal Council member Crispen McAllister, was recently recognized by the Obama Native News Contest.http://www.tworiverstribune.com/2012/04/karuk-charity-run-inspires-youth/ Maymi also nominated Crispen as a White House Let's Move! Champion of Change. Of course, we are all thrilled by this exciting news.
The Karuk Youth Council, Tribal Council, Diabetes program, TANF, TERO, and others have raised enough to pay for the airfare and hotels in Washington, D.C. We are now trying to raise funds to cover food, ground transportation and a couple of hotel rooms in Medford for the Youth Leadership Council's trip to the White House. Any support you can provide will be greatly appreciated by us all.
This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the youth are looking forward to the opportunity to positively represent our tribe in our nation's capital. No matter what you decide, thank you for your consideration.
And, don't miss the bake sale/hamburgers/hot dog sale/snow cones/car wash this weekend at McLaughlin & Sons in Orleans!
Yoôtva, Thank you!

Voice Platform and Support Network for Families of Missing and Victims of Crime
How Society Reacts to Survivors of Homicide
Margaret states that, "To me the best thing that could ever happen is that somebody would say, "Do you have a picture?" When it's your child you feel like you want to talk about them. But when I talk about John, I will cry. Then there's this thing about murder. If I tell people that John was murdered, then I have to take care of them. It's hard to decide whether or not to mention it. In fact, one person did say, "Why did you mention it?" I say, well, I did have three children. I hate to leave him out of my life. I had him for seventeen years and I was very proud of him. I still want people to know that he was very good looking and that he had a good personality."
Though murder is the focus of so many Television shows, movies, and newspaper articles, we never imagine that it could possibly happen to someone we love. Although statistics tell us certain types of people are more frequently the victims of murder, we are all vulnerable to drunk drivers when we are on the highway and we may all be prey to wanton murder.
Murder is commonplace in the fake reality of the mass media. However, the drama of murder that we witness on our TV screens focuses on investigations, arrests and courtroom scenes. These programs rarely give us any view of the terrible emotional impact on the survivors of murder and often even the victim is given little attention.
It was only when the Oklahoma City Bombing occurred on April 19, 1995 that the stark reality of such a loss was brought home to us through television and newspapers. Our first reaction was to blame foreign terrorists, attesting to our desire to hold on to the assumption that our world is safe and that we are somehow exempt from such senseless killing. Since September 11, 2001, society as a whole now realizes, at least for a period of time, that none of us are truly safe any longer.
Because murder is such a distasteful subject, survivors often suffer additional pain from the reactions of their friends and even from the religious community. Their friends may be distant or may even avoid them. Some members of the clergy unintentionally minimize their anguish by either saying that, "your loved one was called by God" or by advising them to forgive the murderer. Survivors need support in their struggle with these emotions, rather than what often seems like a cavalier dismissal.
People don't like discussing the painful subject of murder and may try to distance themselves from the event by blaming the victim or the survivors. People feel that if they can somehow place the blame on the victim or on the victim's family, they will be invulnerable to murder themselves.
Survivors also learn firsthand that the justice process is lengthy, that many murders are never solved, and that the killer can be acquitted or receive a very light sentence. Even if the killer is convicted and receives a life sentence, survivors don't always feel the emotional relief that they expected.
The trial can be postponed or delayed for months or years, leaving survivors suspended in their grief and outrage. As survivors sit through the trial they must also face the relatives of the defendant, a terribly upsetting experience that may be compounded by the hostility sometimes displayed by that family. However, survivors are not permitted to show emotion or the judge will dismiss them because their feelings may "influence the jury."
Survivors must face other painful choices during the trial - like whether to leave or stay when evidence is presented, such as grisly photographs of the crime, bloodstained clothing or other personal property of their loved ones.
If the victim was a young woman who was raped during the murder, the trial will likely focus on her reputation, not on the question of whether she was assaulted. A professor of evidence and ethics at New York University School of Law has stated that not only is it not unethical to question or malign the victim's character, but it's the defense lawyer's duty to do so if it will render a not guilty verdict.
During the trial, public opinion and the media might be concerned more with the suspected killer than with the victim.
Even if the murderer receives what survivors feel is a just sentence, they may be surprised at their response. Many expect that a just sentence will lessen their pain - but their loved one is still dead. When the trial is over, many survivors' emotions surface with full force, for they are no longer focused on that external event. They are left with the terrible emptiness created by the murder and the knowledge that they have to live with it.
There is always the prospect of endless appeals and the overturning of the conviction or even an acquittal in a second or third trial. Such dealings with the court system draw out survivors suffering even longer.
Ralph Myers states, "Those of us in society that are surviving victims are unique. Even though violent crime greatly disturbs most decent and law-abiding people, my perception as a crime survivor is that we have become almost callused to the terrible tragedies that constantly take place. Even myself, the father of a son whom I loved very much and miss beyond what I have even yet begun to fully realize, often times think back to the constant reporting by the media, of hearing or reading about a family's struggle in trying to cope with the murder of a loved one."
"Crime victims and their survivors are soon forgotten by the public and the media. If they are murder victims, their voices have been forever silenced. If they are victims of domestic violence or rape, they soon become the accused rather than the victim. After all, they must have done something that would justify why they were beaten and abused by their spouse, or raped by someone they knew. Or provoked an action being taken upon them by a total stranger because they looked or dressed in a certain way."
Ralph goes on to say that, "It is uncomfortable being around someone that is a victim or surviving victim of crime because most people have never, and hopefully will never become a victim. We are not taught how to deal with events that happen, or persons that experience being victimized."
"How many times have we all watched a local or national newscast wherein the person reporting a particularly tragic story or gruesome murder end the report with an obvious look of sympathy, and a statement of outrage - only then to go on to the next story by stating, "Now, for some lighter news?" Their whole demeanor is completely transformed to one of cheerfulness - like the story they had just reported was to be cast aside."
"From a victim's perspective, that appears or seems to be our duty or plight for the rest of our lives. The life of our murdered loved one has been reduced to a ten to thirty second sound byte. Hurriedly reported on and just as quickly cast aside. The attention then usually focuses on the person or person that committed the heinous act against our loved one. In future newscasts, the victim's names are not even mentioned. Instead, all commentary centers around such topics as to whether the person that is accused of the violent crime will be able to get a fair trial because he or she may be a member of a particular race, color, or creed. However, their victims that have been murdered have forever lost those same considerations. Their voices have been forever silenced. They cannot participate in the arena of public debate or discussion. Any constitutional rights they ever had were stripped away from them the very instant they became a victim. All that is left for them is for their voices to be heard through those that loved and survived them. The criminal justice system is only concerned about the rights of the accused, even after they are proven guilty and convicted."
"As a surviving parent or family member of a loved one that has been murdered, you become their voice since they are no longer able to speak for themselves. Ever since Tom was murdered, I consider our involvement as parents as an extended act of parenting. Looking out for the interest of our child the same as we would if they were still living and depended upon us for protection."

Now take all of THAT...and stretch it out over a period of four, five, ten or more years for Loved ones of a Missing Person...whos body(s) was NEVER found, so a funeral, or proper ceremony, and Goodbye, never took place. Aside from a Candle Light Vigil, or prayer services, we dont get nearly the same level of or time for grieving...because no bodies are available. Also multiply the investigation, the talk and gossip, and the well-meaning people who we, the loved ones of the missing feel we must "take care of" answer questions, or simply say, "its ok, I know you dont know what to say, its a very difficult situation." I now tell people, Id rather not talk about it. Then I dont have to worry about comprimising the integrity of the investigation, saying something so very shocking to most people that we have become numb to...or simply becoming so sadened ourselves by telling the 'story' again and again, that we end up crying and leaving a public place from the embarrassment of being "so emotional...still"
YES! I have become the voices and the Justice seeker of my missing/murdered sister and niece. And I will be that untill we, at the very least see Justice for them, Peace for our family, and a restored sense of safety and security for our community again!
Thank you PEACE4, for finding so many beautiful and insightful people to speak about and share thier experiences of love, and loss, fristration, and pain...so that we dont have to feel alone or misunderstood andy more!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this article. I have tried to put together a decent comment about this but really all I can say is thank you.
I realized what I wanted to say yesterday.... For someone who has been on both sides of the coin here, I can understand how frustrating things can be. It's hard to talk to someone who has gained answers, when you can be feeling jealousy that your loved one hasn't been found. It's hard to talk to people who still have a missing loved one, when yours has been found. It's still your world, but you are all of the sudden an outsider. You didn't just all of the sudden suffer having a loved one murdered. You have had years to soak in the grief. So you don't quite fit in the homicide world just yet, and you are no longer in the missing persons world. Its like a limbo for a while. There are people who are truly happy for you to have answers and truly understand that it doesn't mean closure. Then there are people who make you feel ungrateful if you don't stick around once your loved one is found. Its very hard. It's even harder to see the words - located deceased on so many forums and sites that you have come to as a support system. The one thing that my answer did for me that was almost more traumatic than the actual time my Mom was missing, was the loss of hope. Any thought, prayer, or gleam of it I had, was crushed in one swoop. There was no sweet dream of her sitting on a beach somewhere with amnesia. Or the thought maybe she was being held somewhere and she would escape someday. No more hope. That has by far been the worst part of it all. And if you think that LE is not supportive enough during the missing persons case, it's worse when the remains were left on a hill, far away from the road, in the desert sun for 6 years with no forensic evidence whatsoever and no viable leads. Your loved one disappears all over again and the only people who remember her are those that she gave birth to and a handful of sweet people. You can yell and scream and stamp your feet all you want and you still are stuck without answers. Without your loved one. Without LE support. Even I have considered just turning my head to the investigation and letting it alone. Just let it be. But like this article states. I must be her voice. It is exhausting. The only difference in my life now, is that I know where my mom is and we can actually take vacations that don't involve funerals or searches. I actually got to take my son to Disneyland, not to a desert wasteland roaming around in the hills looking for my mom in all the wrong places.
Stephanie ... thanks for sharing. I know that limbo but in a different sense. I wrote a little about it on Helen Zimmel's blog: http://insearchofmomandmyself.wordpress.com/2012/04/24/guest-post-m... You might consider doing a guest blog on Helen's blog http://insearchofmomandmyself.wordpress.com/. What happens after the answer is extremely important and we all who have gotten our answer, or in my case an answer without an answer, need to share what we've experienced just so those families to come have some preparation emotionally for their answer. Project Jason's Keys to Healing Retreat will be including this topic in their retreat this summer.
Thank you for putting me in touch Maureen. I felt like I was reading my own thoughts on her blog. Almost a mirror. I am glad Project Jason's retreat is addressing this. I honestly didn't and sometimes still don't know what to do with myself now that I have "answers".

A new study has determined predictors that can better identify patients who will benefit from a potentially toxic second course of treatment, which offers a small but real chance of cure in select patients with head and neck cancer. Published early online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, the findings could help guide treatment decisions for head and neck cancer patients.
Radiation is often used to treat patients with head and neck cancer. If their cancer reappears, they have limited treatment choices: chemotherapy is not curative, and surgery can be curative but is often not possible. Chemotherapy and a second course of radiation have previously been shown to be another option. Joseph Salama, MD, formerly of the University of Chicago, and his colleagues conducted an analysis of prior studies to determine how patients tolerate this second round of treatment and which patients benefit the most from it.
The investigators analyzed data from 166 patients with head and neck cancer who received a first round of radiation followed by a second round plus chemotherapy because their cancer recurred or they developed a new tumor. The second course of treatment could cure approximately 25 percent of patients at two years, but it was quite toxic. (Some patients lost the ability to speak or swallow. In addition, approximately 20 percent of patients died from treatment-related complications.)
Certain patients benefited from the treatment over others. Those who were cancer-free for a longer period of time, did not have chemotherapy with their first course of radiation, were treated with a higher dose of radiation in the second round, and had surgery prior to the second course of radiation were more likely to be cured at two years than those who had none or only one of these features. "These can help doctors determine which patients are best suited for a second course of radiation with chemotherapy for head and neck cancer," said Dr. Salama.
The authors concluded that for patients with recurrent head and neck cancer in a previously irradiated area, concomitant chemotherapy with reirradiation is a treatment option that offers a small but real chance of cure in select patients; however, due to the risk of severe toxicity, the treatment should be limited to investigational studies and experienced medical centers.

Here are some of the times I didn't leave my partner: I didn't leave him when he hit me so hard that he paralyzed my diaphragm and I couldn't scream for help. I didn't leave after neighbors had him arrested, or when he grabbed me by my throat and dragged me around the house, or when friends and family begged me to leave. I did not even leave when he threw me against the floor while I was six months pregnant. Did I think about it? Of course I did. I thought about it every single time he raised his hand to me. Sometimes I even did leave--for a night, for three. But I always came back, because as any battered woman can tell you, the leaving can feel harder than the abuse. Most of us carry with us a wretched crib sheet of times we should have left, and that list just keeps getting longer. Here's the story of how I put an end to mine.
Meeting Scott* was like meeting the rest of my life. He was gorgeous, a successful male model. I was a model too, and a single parent-- devoted, but also wild and a little unsettled. He came into the picture and love-bombed me, constantly telling me that I was the most beautiful woman in the world, asking to spend every waking minute together. He took on my baggage (and believe me, I had some). At that time in my life, I was convinced that I needed a husband and a father for my son, Christian. I believed that being with Scott transformed me from a statistic--another woman of color with a baby and no man--into half of a perfect couple.
We moved in together after just three months. Scott brought his clothing and a stack of video games, plus a vicious temper and a need for control that I hadn't known was on the packing list. The fights were ugly. He'd call me "slut" and "whore" and tell me that a sexual assault I'd suffered while we were together was my fault. His words destroyed me, but I thought that if I kept Scott happy, I would have a partner and a proper family for the first time in my life, something I desperately wanted. So instead of removing myself from the situation, I became hypervigilant. I would make myself sick trying to follow all of his rules, constantly reassuring him that I wasn't cheating and telling him that I'd always be there to take care of him. Slowly, I became estranged from all of my friends. (Scott thought that everyone--male or female--was "trying to sleep with me.") I became totally isolated from the rest of the world and, unsurprisingly, completely miserable.
It went on like this for years, him slowly exerting more control over my life, and me letting it happen. I stopped modeling and took on menial work--the only work Scott would allow me to do. My primary job, of course, was punching bag. Whenever Scott felt insecure or uncomfortable, he let me have it. This abuse was only emotional and verbal (though that was bad enough; the things that came out of his mouth couldn't be printed in this magazine), until it wasn't. About a year and a half in, we rented a new apartment because I was pregnant and we needed more space. On our way to pay the landlord, we got into an argument about money. I showed him a stack of bills and reminded him that I was the primary breadwinner. In response, he grabbed my shoulder and shoved me hard against a wall. I was startled, more shocked than scared, and threw the rent money at him. Scott immediately switched back to normal and apologized profusely, saying he had no idea what had happened and swearing he'd never touch me again. (Reader, know this: At no point did I think to myself, Oh, he says he won't hurt me again, but that's what they always say. There are patterns to abuse, but they never feel like your patterns. A woman can take herself to the grave thinking that she is the exception, not the rule.)
Three months later, he broke that promise. We were having a heated discussion over what to name our future daughter. He grabbed me by the hair and yanked me to the ground. I stood up and, in self-defense, cracked him on the elbow with a plate. He exploded and dragged me through the house. I left that night, taking a long, sob-filled subway ride with my son and sister to a friend's house. The next day, Scott called and told me he loved me. He was sorry. He didn't want to be apart. We were a family, he said. Please don't break us up. I was back home in three days.
Did he hit me again? Of course he did. He hit me too many times. (Once should have been too many.) My son witnessed that violence, a tragedy I will spend the rest of my life trying to forgive myself for. I finally left for the love of something bigger than myself--I left for my children. I'd like to say that I loved myself enough to do it for me, but women in my situation rarely do.
About two years after the baby-naming incident, I was sitting in the living room when I heard Scott yelling at 5-year-old Christian for removing the tag from a stuffed animal. I told Scott to leave Christian alone. He bent down, picked my son up, and threw him across the room as if he were casually tossing a Nerf football to a wide receiver. Christian landed on his bed, unhurt but completely stunned. I'd made a promise to myself to endure Scott's abuse for the sake of my family as long as he never laid a hand on my kids. (I know, I know. What kind of a deal is that?) Now all bets were off. It finally clicked that things were only going to get worse. Continued.

Nani set for shock return
Manchester United are confident they will have Nani back for tomorrow's Champions League clash with Marseille. The 24-year-old Portuguese winger trained on Friday and again yesterday with the club's physios. Boss Alex Ferguson feared he would lose Nani for three games after a horror challenge by Jamie Carragher nine days ago left him with a gashed leg. But Nani can run now freely and, today, he will be tested in a more competitive environment with the rest of the players as doctors want to be sure there is no risk of stitches bursting in match action. Ferguson is desperate to have Nani fit for the return against the French champions. His 10 goals and 15 assists so far this season have made him the club's star performer.
Neil Custis, The Sun
Whether or not Nani returns on Tuesday, The Sun says Marseille's preparations have been hampered by a police investigation into striker Branda - although Didier Deschamps' side still warmed up for Old Trafford with a 2-0 win at Rennes on Friday.
The Daily Mail says United have earmarked David De Gea as the man to replace Edwin van der Sar at the end of the season, and are preparing a £15million deal for the 20-year-old Spaniard.
United's FA Cup semi-final pairing with Manchester City prompts huge coverage across Monday's papers. City's Micah Richards - scorer of the Blues' winner against Reading - admits: "We're looking to gain revenge for Wayne Rooney's overhead kick. It's going to be a great game and we'll all be looking forward to it." Edwin van der Sar, meanwhile, wants to bring down the curtain on his career with an FA Cup triumph: "An FA Cup winners medal would mean a lot despite what I have already won in my career," he says.
Sunday's dramatic FA Youth Cup victory at Anfield warrants a sizeable mention in several outlets, although the Reds' 3-2 victory is overshadowed by crowd unrest and the dismissal of two players from either side.

From a 1982 article appearing in the New York Times, "A Nobel Winner Assesses Reagan": "The only way you can finance a deficit is by inflation. You cannot raise this amount by genuine borrowing. You borrow from banks, which create credit for the purpose. A large government deficit is a certain way to inflation."

ARDMORE -- The first Winter Lupus Symposium, held by the South Central Oklahoma Lupus Support Group, kicked off in Ardmore on Saturday.
The one-day symposium took place at Mercy Memorial Hospital, and was open to anyone interested in learning more about lupus.
Doctors say more than 25,000 people in Oklahoma are living with the disease, 90% of whom are women.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can attack any organ in your body, and is often accompanied by other joint related diseases.
"Lupus is so closely related to many other diseases, fibramaligia, arthritis, renoid syndrome - there are so many other things that are, most people who have lupus have something else along with it so we're hoping to reach out to everyone who might be connected to lupus either directly or indirectly," Lea Jensen, the Executive Director of the LFA-OK chapter, said.
For more information about the disease, click here - http://www.lupus.org/newsite/index.html

If shopping is your thing then whilst staying at one of our luxury vacation rentals and villas on Emerald Island Resort why not visit one of the nearby malls.

FaithBuilders 2.0
The FaithBuilders 2.0 Connection Class consists mainly of couples with pre-school and school aged children but all are welcome. We seek to study God's word in order to grow in our relationship with God and with one another. Our Sunday morning studies are Bible based and interactive. We enjoy fellowship with one another through family events, couple's nights, as well as men's and women's activities. We desire to reach others in the body at Concord who are not in a Connection Class or LIFE Group, and we regularly reach out to those who do not know Christ. We meet on Sunday mornings at 11:00 a.m. in room 207.

Dear Dr. Donohue: My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for two years. I have just seen a gynecologist who thinks I might have polycystic ovary syndrome. He has me on metformin. It's a diabetes medicine, but I don't have diabetes. Why has he given this to me? -- R.W.
Dear R.W.: The criteria used to define polycystic ovary syndrome -- POS -- are much broader than they were when it was first described in 1935. They include disturbances in ovulation, which are most often seen as scanty or missed menstrual periods; ovaries that contain many cysts; and evidence of too much male hormone. The cystic ovaries are seen on ultrasound pictures. Evidence of male hormone overproduction comes from things like facial or chest hair and acne.

According to the pilot, due to radio traffic congestion at his landing airport, he missed the tower's call for his landing clearance, and his attempts to confirm his clearance were continually blocked. He completed all items on his before landing checklist except the landing gear, and by the time he got confirmation to land, he was on short final approach, and he forgot to lower the landing gear. Postcrash examination of the wheels up warning circuit revealed an operable warning horn.

I've been!!!! The professionals put on a great show. It was just a shame the layout was so bad. Standing in a 4 deep crowd meant i had to watch everything on screen. Go back to the seated arena. James Whitham is brilliant and plays to the crowds really well. He, John Mc and Nial Hodgson were always staying around to sign things and talk to us mortals. The show was good but the no show by Suzuki was very noticable. The biggest crowds were around HD, Ducatti and Triumph. I go to NEC and Excel every year. Nec is always better but Excel did well this. Parking for bikes is always good and free. I've been going to this show every year and will be going again next year!!! 7 out of 10.

Without doubt the worst I ever have been to. The perimeter stands reminded me of a Sunday car boot.
The arena viewing was impossible unless you were prepared to get to the front 30mins or so before it started and the noise made it impossible to talk to reps on the nearby stands.
Understand stands were stiil available two weeks or so before the show.
Unless they change the concept, cannot see it lasting. Many outside in the eating area were of the same opinion

It was not very big for the price ?
but we had a good day and i got some good deals , better deals than at the NEC actually , got £40 off a set of tyres and £50 of a can for my bike and £10 off a WSB ticket for the WSB at Donnington also £5 off some pannier liners and some discounted accessories for my heated jackets so i enjoyed it and i met some mates we had not seen over the winter

Having the revolution show in the main hall took up far to much floor space,as well as no seating made it difficult to see what was going on.Doing the same races over and over again made the show a bit boring it needs to mix it up abit.With the show down from four days to only three,less stands and smaller area will it still be here next year? I some how doubt it.

Ducati stand was packed. Kwak only really had ZX6s and Z800s. Harley roped everything off (even stuff you could sit on last year), Victory didn't bring a highball or hardball (but did have a Mustang pace car - nice, very nice, but why is it at a bikeshow? it wasn't a prize). The custom show and Zodiac stand were good; but if you went for that you'd be better off going to the Ally Pally show.
Honda only had 1 CB11 (and 1 CRF250) and nothing else that anyone seemed to be paying any attention to. Yamaha tried to wow the world with a grey FJ (at least the Streetglide on the Harley stand was an unpalatable yellow). Guzzi had one California and a couple of V7s if you went looking. Aprilia were a blink and you'd miss it.
Thank goodness for BMW, Triumph and (to a lesser extent) KTM. But £20 for an hour's browse and a live show you can't see? Joy......
