This woman's impressionso of celebrities, which she films while stuck in traffic, are on point. I'm not even sure which ones are my faves...maybe Lena Dunham, the Olsens, Kim Kardashian and Mindy Kaling...
24 posts categorized "TAYLOR SWIFT"
I'm in love with the freaky "song" detected coming from that comet that was just boarded. If some enterprising music producer doesn't make it into a creeptastic dance tune, then what was the point of the entire mission anyway? Diplo, get to work and stop pancake-ass-shaming Taylor Swift, you toddler.
UPDATE: And it begins...
Mikey Wax covers and mashes up Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off" and Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass", making the songs infinitely more bearable...
(At 1:19) Taylor Swift discusses being influenced by Madonna and naming her debut pop album after "Like a Prayer"...
Buzzfeed's latest diva ranking is pretty solid, in that Madonna easily makes #1. The fact that it is a definitive ranking of pop divas makes her the inevitable champeen.
I would rearrange the list a bit...

The theocratic regime in Iran earned global mockery last year when its state news agency fell for an article by the satirical newspaper The Onion, which claimed that a vast majority of rural whites in the U.S. would rather have a beer with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad than President Obama. It turns out, however, that apparatchiks in the Iranian press are not the only ones to have mistaken parody for hard news. The Washington Post today published a blog post by Suzi Parker that claimed Sarah Palin, the former vice presidential candidate, had joined the Qatari-based news channel Al Jazeera. Parker went on to rub Palin's face in it a bit, noting the delicious irony that Fox News, Palin's former employer, had dubbed Al Jazeera "an anti-American terror mouthpiece."
The only problem with Parker's analysis is that Palin never joined Al Jazeera, and the only source that ever claimed so was the satirical site the Daily Currant. A sample from the Daily Currant's "scoop":
"As you all know, I'm not a big fan of newspapers, journalists, news anchors and the liberal media in general," Palin said. "But I met with the folks at Al-JaJizzraa (sic) and they told me they reach millions of devoutly religious people who don't watch CBS or CNN. That tells me they don't have a liberal bias."
The Post has been forced to publish an embarrassing correction, which reads:
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this post incorrectly reported that Sarah Palin had signed on as a contributor to the Al Jazeera America news network. The blogger cited a report on the Daily Currant Web site as the basis for that information without realizing that the piece was satirical.

Other World Computing (OWC) has announced that it is offering 4GB Memory Kits for the newly announced MacBook and MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo models.
"We're all about maximizing performance and impressively, we've found there can be better performance attained even between 2.0GB and 3.0GB memory configurations than getting a new system with a faster processor," said Larry O'Connor, president. "More memory makes a tremendous difference, as our real world testing illustrates, and going up to 4.0GB offers a noticeably significant benefit beyond just what a faster processor provides."
OWC's 4.0GB Memory Upgrade Kits are available immediately, priced at $96 ([2] 2GB modules). Additional savings are also available for customers who take advantage of OWC's trade-in program, which provides $20 cash back for the trade-in of two 1GB modules.

Two Family Members Want to Throw Party on Same Day
By Peggy Post
Special Offers
QuestionAfter putting down a deposit on a hall and sending out invitations to your son's confirmation, your sister-in-law calls to say your niece's graduation is going to fall on the same day -- and her invitations are already in the mail! With more than half the guests invited to two events scheduled for the same time, what should you do?
1) Offer to change your date, even though you'll lose your deposit.
2) Don't do anything, and let the guests decide.
3) Talk to your sister-in-law and decide which party will be easier -- and less costly -- to change.
AnswerThe correct answer: (3) The good news is, there's a lot to celebrate in your family! Recognize that this is a unique and difficult situation. Make the best of it by discussing the dilemma with your sister-in-law to work out an amicable solution. Which event will be easier to reschedule? If you decide to change the date of your celebration, call those you've invited immediately. Perhaps your sister-in-law could even help you make the phone calls. And, maybe the hall will let you reschedule and apply your deposit to the new date. If your sister-in-law changes her plans, offer to help her contact the guests that she has invited. Another option: One of you could change just the time of the celebration, allowing both parties to take place on the same day.

SINGAPORE Japan wants to overturn a decision by China to levy anti-dumping duties on some Japanese high-performance stainless steel seamless tubes (HP-SSST).
Tokyo is expected to request the establishment of a panel under the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement during an April 24 dispute settlement body meeting, saying China hasnt provided enough evidence on how its decision was made, Japans Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) said.
"Japan considers that Chinas imposing of anti-dumping duties is inconsistent with the WTO Anti-Dumping Agreement (Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994) because of flaws in the determination of injury and a causal relationship and in the investigation procedure," according to METI.
Chinas central government initiated an anti-dumping investigation on some imports of HP-SSST from Japan and European Union countries on Sept. 8, 2011, and decided to impose anti-dumping duties on Nov. 8, 2012.
The affected Japanese products are subject to duties ranging from 9.2 to 14.4 percent.
Japan subsequently requested consultations with China under the WTO agreement on Dec. 20, 2012, with consultations held Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 of this year.
Based on the result of the consultations, Japan decided to "seek an appropriate solution to this issue in accordance with the WTO agreements."
Japan exported approximately $72 million worth of HP-SSST to China in 2011. They are used in boilers of coal-fired power plants.A version of this article was first published by AMM sister publication Steel First.

Home » News » Business » 40 Under Forty
John Weaver has adopted Portsmouth in a big way
John F. Weaver, 33Home: Portsmouth
Birthplace: Nashua
Family: Wife, Alicia; daughter, Ella; mother, Mary; father, Bill
High school: Merrimack High School
College/post-grad degrees: I received my undergraduate degree from Georgetown University and my J.D. from Boston College Law School.
Current job: I'm an attorney at McLane, Graf, Raulerson, and Middleton, P.A., working out of the firm's Portsmouth and Manchester offices. This school year, I have also been an adjunct professor of sport law at Southern New Hampshire University.
Volunteer activities: I am on the boards of Pro Portsmouth, Inc. and the Portsmouth Public Library board of trustees. I chair the New Hampshire Bar Association Real Property Section and the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee. I volunteer with the N.H. Bar Association's Law Related Education programs, judging student civics competitions and speaking at high schools. As an alumni interviewer for Georgetown, I also meet with New Hampshire high school seniors who have applied to the university. I serve as a eucharistic minister at Corpus Christi Parish in Portsmouth.
A graduate of Merrimack High School, Weaver spent time traveling after earning his undergraduate degree from Georgetown University, but his heart was in his home state.
Immediately upon earning his law degree, he gained a position with McLane, Graf, Raulerson, and Middleton, P.A., working out of their Manchester and Portsmouth offices.
His practice is varied, Weaver said, covering everything from sports law to real estate law and telecommunications.
In recent years, Weaver developed an interest in artificial intelligence and the liabilities associated with technologies like autonomous cars or Apple's Siri system.
Weaver said the premise underlying most laws is based on the idea that only people make decisions, and therefore only people can be held liable for problems.
But if two autonomous cars get into an accident, who is responsible? Or, if a computer program creates a piece of music, who owns the rights to it?
Weaver explored some of the legal issues introduced by artificial intelligence in a March article of the New Hampshire Bar Journal and is currently writing a book on the subject.
"It occurred to me . that this is going to be a huge commercial area and probably a huge legal area and nobody is there right now," Weaver said.
Weaver writes chapters early in the morning and late at night after his wife, Alicia, and two-year-old daughter, Ella, are long asleep.
When not busy with law, Weaver stays involved with the community of Portsmouth, the city he has called home since 2008.
He has been a board member of Pro Portsmouth, Inc., the organization behind Market Square Day, First Night Portsmouth, Children's Day and other citywide events, since 2009 and also serves on the Portsmouth Public Library board of trustees.
In addition, he chairs the New Hampshire Bar Association Real Property Section and the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee.
Through his work with the New Hampshire Bar, he has helped to coordinate efforts to bring more real estate expertise to the state's pro bono program.
Weaver said he is honored to be selected for this year's class of New Hampshire Union Leader 40 Under 40 nominees. He said the list is a reminder of all the good work young people are doing in the state, and helps to retain more young adults in the state.

Gain Just Enough Pregnancy Weight
Prenatal Yoga
Stretch It Out, Mama!
Prenatal yoga improves flexibility and relaxes you. That's great news if you're a snacker spurred on by stress. Preg-friendly poses:
Sit on the floor and bring the soles of your feet together in front of your body, allowing knees to fall open. Press feet together, hold knees, and slowly curl torso over to increase the stretch for a minute or so. Gently shake out legs.
Downward Dog
Position hands shoulder-width apart on a mat, feet to the back of the mat. Stretch out from shoulders and press down through heels, hold, and breathe deeply. Alternately bend right and left knees for up to a minute.
Start on all fours, wrists underneath shoulders and knees underneath hips. Inhale as you arch your lower back and tailbone upward, lifting your chin up to the ceiling. As you exhale, round your spine, tucking your chin to your chest and your tailbone under. Repeat for 1 minute.
"Why I Didn't Pile on the Pounds"
"I kept weight lifting three to five days per week, like I'd always done, adjusting the workout with each trimester."
-- Mara Wyttenbach, Madison, Wisconsin
"I ate smaller meals more often to keep my blood sugar level. I also had an egg a day -- protein gave me energy. I was back to my original weight in three months."
-- Kelly Parthen, Colorado Springs
"I always kept this thought in the back of my mind: Think of the child who is growing inside of you. Does the baby need those fried mozzarella sticks?"
-- Melissa Puppos, Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan
"I weighed myself at home to stay on target. I didn't want to suffer shock at the doctor's! I was aware without being obsessed."
-- Emily Hill, Sandy, Utah
"Doing the elliptical machine gave me additional energy throughout the day, helped me sleep better at night, and limited my weight gain."
-- Robin LaSure, Roswell, Georgia

JPMorgan resolves gripe over MF Global payout plan
NEW YORK (Reuters) - MF Global MFGLQ.PK and its creditors have resolved a dispute with JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM.N) over the value of intercompany claims within the bankrupt brokerage's estate, eliminating what could have been a sticking point in effecting MF Global's creditor repayment plan.
The effect of the settlement, a result of court-ordered mediation, is essentially to enhance JPMorgan's recovery, according to a statement on Tuesday from Louis Freeh, the trustee liquidating the broker's estate.
Under the deal, MF's parent entity will subordinate $275 million of its $1.887 billion claim against MF Global's finance unit below JPMorgan's $1.2 billion claim against the estate.
It remained unclear exactly how much that will serve to increase the bank's projected recoveries. Court filings containing more detail were expected to be entered "shortly" in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan, the statement said.
Under the current edition of the plan, proposed by a group of MF Global's hedge fund creditors with Freeh's cooperation, unsecured creditors of MF's parent would recover between 13.4 cents and 39 cents on the dollar. Creditors of its finance unit would receive between 14.7 cents and 34 cents on the dollar. It is unclear how the settlement will impact those figures.
"The settlement will result in a slightly modified distribution range for unsecured creditors," the statement said.
Former trader customers of the Jon Corzine-led brokerage are projected to recover all of their money.
JPMorgan, which has claims against both the MF parent and its finance unit, is currently projected to recoup up to 73 cents on the dollar, but that figure could increase as a result of Tuesday's settlement.
"The settlement is in the best interest of creditors as it removes a major hurdle to confirmation of the plan," Freeh, the former FBI chief, said in the statement.
JPMorgan's claim is associated with the revolving credit facility on which it served as agent.
Creditors have until March 25 to vote on the plan, after which it must go before a U.S. bankruptcy judge for a final approval hearing, currently scheduled for April 5.
The case is In re MF Global Holdings Ltd, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, No. 11-15059.

Oncological outcomes of the prostate cancer patients registered in 2004: report from the Cancer Registration Committee of the JUA.
ABSTRACT In 2001, the Cancer Registration Committee of the Japanese Urological Association initiated a data collection of prostate cancer patients into a computer-based database. The aim of the present study is to report the clinical and pathological characteristics and outcomes of prostate cancer patients diagnosed in 2004 in Japan.
Overall, 11,385 patients from 239 institutions were registered into the database. After excluding 1105 patients because of insufficient data, duplication or insufficient follow up, 10,280 patients were eligible for the analysis. Most of them (10,198, 99.2%) were Japanese and 1195 (11.6%) had metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. The mean and median follow up was 53.2 months and 61.5 months, respectively.
The 5-year overall and prostate cancer-specific survival rate was 89.7% and 94.8%, respectively. The 5-year prostate cancer-specific survival rate of M0 and M1 disease was 98.4% and 61.1%, respectively. For 8424 cases of organ-confined or regional disease, Japanese urologists used as the initial treatment hormone ablation therapy alone (3360, 39.9%), radical prostatectomy (3140, 38.1%), radiation therapy (1530, 18.2%) and watchful waiting (394, 4.7%) including active surveillance or palliative observation.
This is the first large population report of survival data in Japanese prostate cancer patients. In Japan, the disease population, survival period with metastatic disease and ratio of patients having hormone ablation therapy differ from those in Western countries.

Article: Comparisons of perioperative outcomes and costs between open and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: A propensity-score matching analysis based on the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We compared perioperative outcomes and costs between open and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. The Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database, including cases from 2007 to 2010, was used by one-to-one propensity-score matching. The following items were compared: complication rate; homologous and autologous transfusion rate; first cystography day and cystography repeat rate; anesthesia time; postoperative length of stay; and costs. Multivariate analyses were carried out by including age, Charlson Comorbidity Index, T stage, hospital volume and hospital academic status as variables. As a result, among 15 616 open and 1997 laparoscopic radical prostatectomies, 1627 propensity-score matched pairs were generated. The laparoscopic approach showed a better overall complication rate (3.4% vs 5.0%), homologous transfusion rate (3.3% vs 9.2%), autologous transfusion rate (44.9% vs 79.3%), first cystography day (mean 6th vs 7th day), mean postoperative length of stay (mean 11 vs 13 days), and cost without surgery and anesthesia (mean $7965 vs $9235; all P < 0.001). Anesthesia time was longer (mean 345 vs 285 min) and total cost was higher (mean $14 980 vs $12 356) for the laparoscopic approach (both P < 0.001). The secondary cystography rates were comparable between the groups (18.3% vs 15.7%, P = 0.144). The multivariate analyses showed similar trends. In conclusion, these findings confirm several benefits of laparoscopy over open approach for radical prostatectomy.International Journal of Urology 01/2013; · 1.73 Impact Factor
Article: Surveillance biopsy and active treatment during active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The goals of the study were to examine surveillance biopsy and active treatment in patients under active surveillance (AS) for low-risk prostate cancer and to determine the active treatment-free survival rate. The subjects were 87 patients with low-risk prostate cancer who were under AS between 2000 and 2010. The eligibility criteria for AS were T1c, Gleason score ≤6, prostate-specific antigen level ≤10 ng/ml, one or two positive biopsies, maximum cancer involvement ≤50 %, and age ≤80 years old. Of the 87 patients, 48 underwent the first surveillance biopsy (55.2 %). In this biopsy, no cancer was found in 33.3 % of cases, 27.1 % remained eligible for AS, and 39.6 % did not meet the AS criteria (up-grade 22.9 %, up-volume 16.7 %). A second surveillance-biopsy was performed at 1.9 years after the first biopsy. No cancer was found in 20.0 % of cases, 40.0 % remained eligible for AS, and 40.0 % did not meet the AS criteria (up-grade 26.7 %, up-volume 13.3 %). A total of 50 patients received treatment by 1.7 years after starting AS, mainly due to an up-grade or up-volume. However, some patients underwent radiotherapy despite biopsy results indicating no cancer or eligibility for AS. The active treatment-free survival rate was 64.1 % after 2 years. Surveillance biopsy is important for identifying patients who require active treatment. The results in this study allowed determination of the active treatment-free survival rate and are informative for making treatment decisions.International Journal of Clinical Oncology 06/2013; · 1.41 Impact Factor
Article: How do Weekly Magazines Provide Information on Urogenital Cancer to the Public in Aged Societies?[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Little information on cancer coverage rather than newspaper and television is available. Japanese weekly magazines have a circulation of over 2,700,000 per week. To examine how they delivered urogenital cancer information to the public, cancer-related articles and advertisements in six major Japanese weekly magazines from 2009 to 2010 was ana-lyzed. 1.8% of total articles and advertisements were cancer-related. Prostate cancer (n = 119) was the second-most common topic, following lung cancer (n = 145), whereas only three articles were published on kidney or bladder cancer. The 53 articles on therapies for prostate cancer comprised radiotherapy (n = 29), surgery (n = 16), chemotherapy (n = 4), and others (n = 4). All 42 comments or interviews were cited in the article on prostate cancer, while 26 of them were attributed to only two famous doctors. Although cancer coverage in weekly magazines could be useful to spread infor- mation on prostate cancer, we should recognize their considerable bias based on a disproportionate emphasis.Open Journal of Urology 10/2013; 3(6):246-247.

Overall, 11 385 patients from 239 institutions were registered into the database. After excluding 1105

Most of them (10 198, 99.2%) were Japanese and 1195 (11.6%) had metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. The mean

This is the first large population report of survival data in Japanese prostate cancer patients. In Japan, the

In 2001, the Cancer Registration Committee of the Japanese Urological Association initiated a data collec-
Key words:
epidemiology, Japanese, prostate neoplasm, registration, survival.
In the 1990s, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing became
widespread in Japan, as in the USA and Europe. The inci-
dence of prostate cancer in Japan also appears to be rising.
There is no doubt that PSA screening contributes to earlier
diagnosis of prostate cancer.Whether earlier detection of the
prostate cancer in Japanese men helps reduce prostate
cancer-specific mortality is unknown as a result of the lack
of detailed information about Japanese prostate cancer
In 2001, the Japanese Urological Association (JUA) ini-
tiated a study to estimate the etiology, diagnosis, initial
treatment, pathological findings and final outcomes of pros-
tate cancer using computer-based registration of prostate
cancer patients from institutions all over Japan. In 2005, we
published the initial report on the registered 4529 prostate
cancer patients diagnosed in 20001and the estimated etiol-
ogy, diagnosis and initial planned treatment were analyzed.
In 2010, detailed information including the main treatment
modality used, adjuvant therapies used and survival of pros-
tate cancer patients diagnosed in 2004 was collected to
assess the current situation of prostate cancer in Japan.
Patients and treatments
In 2010, data on patients diagnosed with prostate cancer in
2004 were collected, along with 5-year survival data and
radical prostatectomy pathology results. Incidental cancer
found within specimens removed during radical cystopros-
tatectomy for bladder cancer and transitional cell carcinoma
of the prostate concomitant with bladder cancer were
excluded from this registry. In all, 11 385 patients were

registered from 239 institutions. Excluded from the analysis
were 37 duplications (only one record was removed and the
patient remained in the registry), six patients because of
insufficient data and 1062 patients with less than 180 days of
follow up, leaving 10 280 patients included in the analysis.
Pathological staging was based on the fifth edition of the
TNM classification and the third edition of the General Rule
for Clinical and Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer
(2001).2For the PSA analysis, only cases measured with the
Tandem-R kit PSA assay (n = 4567, 44.4%) were included
to avoid statistical scatter.The definition of PSA failure was
determined based on the clinician's judgement.
Survival data were analyzed according to the main treat-
ment modality and the M stage. The initial main treatment
modalities used were categorized into four groups: hormone
ablation therapy alone (Hx), radical prostatectomy (RP) with
or without neoadjuvant hormone treatment (NHT), radiation
therapy (Rx) with or without NHT and watchful waiting
(W/W) including active surveillance or palliative observa-
tion irrespective of the intent. Characteristics and outcomes
from the four treatment groups were analyzed separately.
Analysis of progression-free survival was not possible as
a result of difficulties in timing recurrence correctly. In some
RP cases, adjuvant therapy was initiated just after the opera-
tion on the basis of the pathological findings. In addition,
there were substantial differences in how post-Rx PSA
failure was defined. For these reasons, the exact timing of
recurrence was not able to be determined for a sizable
number of patients, whom we consequently described as
having "stable disease." Therefore, we had no other choice
but to focus on the mortality rate, overall survival (OS) and
prostate cancer-specific survival (PCSS).
Statistical methods
For statistical analysis, Student's t-test was used for analysis
of intergroup differences in means and the c2-test was used
for intergroup comparisons. Survival data was analyzed by
the Kaplan–Meier method.
Overall data
The registered patients' characteristics including age, PSA,
Gleason score and TNM classification were summarized
according to the main initial treatment modality (see
Table S1,supportinginformation).Inthe10 280patients,the
number of the patients treated by Hx, RP, Rx and W/W was
4934 (49.8%), 3212 (31.5%), 1605 (10.4%) and 485 (4.7%),
There were statistically significant differences among
patients in different treatment groups. Patients treated with
RP were the youngest (median age 68.0 years), with patients
treated with Hx on average approximately 8.5 years older
(median age 76.0 years). Overall, median PSA at diagnosis
was 13.0 ng/mL, but the median PSA within theW/W group
was 7.3 ng/mL, which was the lowest. Median Gleason
score was 7 among Hx, RP and Rx groups, and 6 in W/W
T1c or T2 disease. In contrast, 11.5% of patients presented
with metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis.
The 5-year OS and PCSS of all 10 280 patients was
98.7% and 94.8%, respectively. Figure 1 shows the Kaplan–
Meier curves according to M stage. Bony disease (M1b)
comprised the majority of M1 patients. The 5-year OS and
PCSS was 61.8% and 66.7%, respectively. In M1 disease,
there was a significant correlation between survival and
Gleason score (P < 0.001).
T1-4N0M0 prostate cancer
There were 8424 patients with T1-4N0M0 prostate cancer.
The distribution and proportion of clinical T (cT) stage and
age by treatment group are shown in Figure 2. Interestingly,
in Japan more than 30% of patients received Hx as the main
treatment modality across all cT stages. Even for cT1 or cT2
disease, RP, Hx and Rx were carried out in approximately
50%, 30% and 20% of the cases, respectively. The age
distribution differed dramatically across treatment groups.
For patients less than 75 years-of-age, RP was widely used.
Rx was carried out at similar rates (approximately 20%) in
patients up to 80 years-of-age. Hx was the major treatment
in patients over 80 years-of-age.
OS and PCSS in T1-4N0M0 disease by treatment group
were shown to be 97.6% and 99.6% in RP, 95.6% and 98.5%
in Rx, 96.4% and 99.7% in W/W and 88.9% and 97.7% in
Hx. Five-year PCSS for patients without metastatic disease
was excellent (98.4%).
Distribution of age and PSA in patients with T1-4N0M0
prostate cancer according to treatment was shown in Fig-
ure S1. Figure S2 shows cT distribution and the main treat-
ment adopted in these patients. Figure S3 shows overall and
prostate cancer-specific survival by main treatment adopted
in these patients.
Radical prostatectomy
RP was carried out in 3212 patients (see Table S2, support-
ing information). Overall, 96.2% of RP patients had radical
prostatectomy through the retropubic approach, and 89%
had an open procedure. Concerning neurovascular bundle
preservation, 70.4% of the patients received RP without
nerve preservation. Lymph node dissection was carried out
in 91% of the patients with mainly limited obturator lymph
node dissection (71.6%).

The outcomes of 3200 RP patients according to NHT
duration are summarized (seeTable S3, supporting informa-
tion). Because of uncertain NHT status, 12 patients were
excluded. In the RP with NHT group (n = 1164), most
pathological parameters including node metastasis (pN) and
surgical margin status (ew) were better than in those patients
without NHT (n = 2045; P < 0.001), except for seminal
vesicle invasion (sv). However, the survival status of RP
with NHT group did not differ from the RP without NHT
group.The disease-free rate and prostate cancer death rate in
the RP group within this observation period of approxi-
mately 5 years was approximately 70–75% and less than
1%, respectively.
Hormonal therapy alone
In this registration series, 4934 patients were treated with Hx
alone (see Table S4, supporting information). In these
patients, 3582 patients (72.6%) had non-metastatic disease
(M0) and 1061 patients (21.5%) had bony metastasis (M1b).
The combination of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone
(LH-RH) analogs with non-steroidal anti-androgen drugs
were used in the majority of the Hx patients (67.4%). In M0
disease, 25% of patients received monotherapy with LH-RH
analogs or surgical castration, and 67.4% patients were
treated with maximum androgen blockade (MAB). Estrogen
or estramustine phosphate therapy as the initial Hx was rare
for M0 disease. For M1b disease, 82% of patients received
MAB and 14.4% of patients received estrogen or estramus-
tine phosphate as the initial treatment. The 5-year PCSS in
patients with M0 disease was 93.3% and in M1b patients, it
was 71.2%. In M0 patients, 8.4% of the patients died of
other causes, which seemed to be higher when compared
with patients treated with other modalities.
Curative radiation for prostate cancer
Rx as a radical treatment was used for 1554 patients. There
were 28 patients who received particle radiotherapy and 27
patients were treated by uncertain modality. Excluding these
patients, the characteristics of the 1499 patients are summa-
rized (see Table S5, supporting information). Radiation
therapy was classified as external beam radiation therapy
with Liniac (EBRT; n = 1241), brachytherapy (BT; n = 210)
or a combination (BT + EBRT; n = 48). Median age in
EBRT was 72.9 years and median PSA was 15.0 ng/mL. In
contrast, that in BT was 70.0 years and median PSA was
7.30 ng/mL. When compared with EBRT patients, BT
patients were younger and had lower PSA, Gleason scores
and earlier stage disease. The median PSA level in patients
who received EBRT was 15.0 ng/mL, higher than in RP
patients. In 1241 EBRT patients, 88.6% received radiation
to the prostate only and the median dose in EBRT was
70 Gy. No cancer deaths were observed in patients who
received BT and BT + EBRT. In the EBRT group, 5-year
PCSS was 98.3% (see Table S6, supporting information).
Watchful waiting
In this registry, W/W included active surveillance, deferred
treatment and palliative observation. At the time of regis-
tration, 72.4% of patients were maintained on watchful

waiting. In the W/W group, 0.62% of the patients died of
prostate cancer. The incidence was similar to that in the RP
patients (see Table S7, supporting information).
The present report is the first large-scale study of the char-
acteristics and survival of prostate cancer patients in Japan
based on multi-institutional registry data. The estimated
number of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients in Japan
in 2005 was 42 997.3This registry seems to cover approxi-
mately one-quarter of newly diagnosed prostate cancer in
Japan. With regard to prostate cancer incidence and mortal-
ity, ethnic differences between American or European and
Asian men are well known. Understanding the actual situa-
tion of Japanese prostate cancer patients is indispensable to
addressing many clinical issues regarding prostate cancer
The incidence of metastatic prostate cancer at the initial
registration was 11.6% in the present study. In the USA,
6.5% were distant stage according to the report from the
1990–2000 database of the Surveillance, Epidemiology and
End Results (SEER) Program4, suggesting the incidence of
metastatic disease is higher in Japan than in the USA.
However, the incidence was 21.3% from the Japanese reg-
istration data in 2000.1Compared with the data from 2000,
the ratio of distant disease in 2004 was reduced by half.
However, the number of the distant diseases in 2000
(n = 964) was almost the same as that in 2004 (n = 1195).
In the report derived from the 1973–2000 database of the
SEER Program4, 5- and 10-year PCSS were approximately
99% and 95%, respectively. Two-thirds of patients were
diagnosed with well or moderately differentiated localized
or regional prostate cancer. Among these patients, 5- and
10-year PCSS were approximately 100%. In the present
study, 5-year PCSS was 94.8%, which resembles the SEER
data from 1995. The PCSS of localized or regional prostate
cancer was 98.4%, similar to the SEER data. Five-year
PCSS of patients with bony metastasis in Japan was 66.7%,
which was better than the 27–37% 5-year PCSS in the
USA4.The reason why Japanese patients with bony metasta-
sis showed a longer survival period than American patients
is uncertain.
The main treatment used for non-metastatic prostate
cancer patients in Japan was quite different from that in the
USA. In the USA, approximately half of prostate cancer
patients received surgery and more than one-third under-
went Rx.5In Japan, Hx comprised of 39.9% of the initial
main treatment, even for non-metastatic prostate cancer.
One of the reasons for the high rate of Hx might be the
relatively advanced age at diagnosis. Another reason might
be the high rate of health insurance coverage and indiffer-
ence about erectile dysfunction. In the present study, the
most frequent treatment for non-metastatic prostate cancer
in patients less than 70-years-old was RP (62.5%). Essen-
tially, for patients younger than 70-years-old, Japanese
urologists might choose treatments in agreement with major
guidelines published by the National Comprehensive Cancer
Network and the European Association of Urology, among
Concerning the administration of Hx medications, MAB
therapy was recommended for stage D2 prostate cancer.6
However, in Japan, 65% of patients with non-metastatic
disease received MAB therapy and 25% of them received

OS of patients with Hx seemed to be lower than that with
other modalities. The patients undergoing Hx are relatively
In the present series, detailed data on RP was analyzed. In
2004, open retropubic RP (89.6%) with obturator lymph
node dissection (71.6%) was the most common procedure.
Interestingly, just 20% of patients received nerve-sparing
operations in Japan. In high-volume hospitals in the USA,
most radical prostatectomy seems to be carried out using the
nerve-sparing technique. For most Japanese men, there
might be less concern about sexual function when compared
with American men.
The pathological results were sorted by NHT duration,
because they might be affected by NHT status. Similar to the
data from many randomized controlled studies of NHT7,8
most pathological findings were improved by longer NHT,
except for seminal sv and pN. However, there was no
remarkable improvement in prognosis despite longer NHT
as previously reported. However, these data came from non-
randomized, non-historically controlled patients.
Additionally, the present study might be the largest popu-
lation study of Rx in Japan. In past years, the trends and
patterns of Rx in Japan were reported by the patterns of care
study (PCS).9,10The age, PSA, Gleason score and radiation
dose in the EBRT group of the present study were similar to
PCS data. The median PSA of 15.0 ng/mL in the EBRT
patients was higher than that of the patients treated with RP.
Japanese urologists seemed to select EBRT for treating
localized advanced disease.The EBRT group in the registry
had a disease-free rate of 58% and a stable disease rate of
22.7%. Recently, higher dose radiation has been recognized
to contribute to better cancer control. In 2004, 11.0% of the
patients received 72 Gy and 11.4% patients received 76 Gy
EBRT. Nearly 50% of patients underwent 68 Gy EBRT.
Recently, relatively high dose EBRT in combination with
NHT was attempted using the intensity modulated radio-
therapy technique.
In conclusion, this is the first report of survival data
involving one-quarter of newly diagnosed prostate cancer
patients in Japan. In Japan, the patient population, survival
period with metastatic disease and the ratio of patients
receiving Hx differ from Western countries. Also notewor-
thy is the reduction in the ratio of metastatic prostate cancer
at diagnosis, which was 11.6% in 2004, approximately half
the rate in 2000. However, the total number of newly diag-
nosed patients with metastatic prostate cancer in 2004 was
almost same as that in 2000. In terms of localized (cT2 or
earlier stage) prostate cancer, Hx was used as the main
treatment in 36.7% of Japanese patients.The 5-year survival
of patients with localized prostate cancer was excellent irre-
spective of the main treatment used. Five-year OS and PCSS
of patients with M1b disease were superior to that in the

Removing Food & Wine Stains from Tablecloths
- CindyJ Apr 16, 2009 08:36 AM
Maybe this is SO "not about food" that it doesn't even belong on this website, but I'll give it a shot anyway. What's the best way to clean a tablecloth that can't be bleached, or even washed in hot water? I usually stay away from tablecloths that aren't indestructable, but I have one that's been sitting in the closet, never used, because I just know it'll be ruined after the first time I put it on the table. It's a very pretty April Cornell 100% cotton print. The cleaning instructions say to wash in cold water and line dry. So my question is, what can I use to treat the inevitable spills, spots and stains, prior to laundering, that won't ruin the cloth?
As a former April Cornell employee and chowhound, you can wash that tablecloth in warm water and pretreat spots with a gentle detergent like woolite or shout and not do too much damage. Also, line drying isn't entirely necessary, tumble drying on low will be fine. For removing wine stains, dousing the spot in several liters of cold club soda works the best.
re: Janet
Since you mentioned salt, is there any truth to the "club soda and salt" fix from Curb Your Enthusiasm? I've been thinking about it since I first saw this thread.
If it doesn't work, it's a funny clip just the same.
re: kattyeyes
That's a funny one, can't believe I never saw it. Didn't they do the same trick on Seinfeld? Can't remember the particulars....
re: kattyeyes
Overdue response: never never never put salt on a red wine stain, salt is a dye fixative. Ask my brand-new custom-made white linen pants that matched my wedding suit that I wore to our first married dinner out and got Bordeaux spilled on. Waiter put a lot of salt on the stain, took to the hotel dry cleaner, never came out. Sigh.
Just do what Sue Ann Nivens "The Happy Homemaker" suggests. "Stretch the stained part over a bowl and pour in boiling water from a height of two feet..those stains will come out in a jiffy!!" LOVE the old MTM show... adam
There's a product called Folex - which I've bought in the cleaning section of Linens and Things or one of those places. It's fantastic on wine and works well on other food stains. It's not a bleach so it won't take the colour out of the fabric. I have NO idea how it works I just know it does. You spray the stuff on - even the next day if you've forgotten - and something magical happens. The stain begins to disappear immediately. Throw it in the wash - owever you're allowed to wash it - and the stain is gone altogether. I swear I do not own the company and I do not make any money selling it. A similar product - Wine Out - works as well but is more expensive.
re: Nyleve
I use Folex on carpet and upholstery spots, and you're right, it's a great product. There's another cleaner I get at BB&B called "Incredible!" that I use for fabrics -- clothing, etc. and it works miracles, too. I used it last week on the tablecloth in question, washed the cloth in warm water, dried it on an air setting and it came out great.
re: Nyleve
I spilled a glass of red wine on our multi-colored, very expensive, oriental carpet about a month ago. My wife was almost apoplectic! After talking to lots of people, including the store we bought the carpet from, I was getting resigned to the fact that we were going to have to replace the carpet. I "googled" the internet and found some things that sounded OK and some that sounded crazy. Then, I thought "I ought to try the CHs"! I searched this board and found Nyleve's Folex recommendation. Sounded exactly like what I was looking for. I found a bottle of Folex at Lowe's. I took an old towel and splashed some red wine on it, let it sit for a week and then tried the Folex on it - it was gone in two applications! I tried Folex on a tiny red area of our carpet where you could just barely see a purple stain. Gone! I got a little more daring and tried it on a medium green area. Gone! I got really daring and tried it on a white area. Gone! You would never know that there was an area about 4X2 on the carpet that had endured a red wine spill! Needless to say, there will always be a bottle of Folex in our laundry room. Thank you Nyleve!
re: bucksguy14
You're welcome. I love that stuff. It's magic.
re: Nyleve
Thank you so much -- I just came from a dinner where the waiter spilled a glass of wine down my back. How cool to find the solution within ten minutes!
re: KTFoley
Ooo - chilly. Hope you got a free dessert, at least.
re: Nyleve
The waiter was mortified but managed to do all the right things -- apologized immediately, brought towels etc. to help wipe up, offered to pay for dry-cleaning, comped my meal. Did NOT expect that last one. But they were terrific and I have no complaints
re: KTFoley
Excellent. And if you actually got the entire stain out, even better.
re: bucksguy14
There's another product, similar to Folex, that I've been using to remove wine and other food stains from fabric lately. It's called "Incredible!" and I buy it at BB&B. I treat the fabric just before I launder it, and it's amazing. I use Folex on rugs and carpets and Incredible! on fabric, and in my house, I go through a lot of both!
re: CindyJ
Guess I've got another line on my shopping list!
I have a tablecloth like that, I spray it with Scotchgard a few hours before company comes, and then treat any stains with Zout before washing. Never a problem.
I highly, highly recommend this enzyme cleaner: Bio Kleen Bac-Out. http://www.amazon.com/Bac-Enzyme-Clea...
I have spilled several glasses of red wine on pale carpet, blotted them, poured on some Bac-Out, and watched the stain go purple-gray-gone! It's great stuff. Smells good, cheap, from a good company, and it actually works. Fine on colors.
It's also handy-dandy for things like shower curtains, drains, etc.
re: Vetter
Does it work on stains that remain after laundering?
There is not a single thing I have not been able to remove by soaking in Oxyclean. You can make it into a paste and spot-treat, or for my very worst stain situation (a hot pink crayon ruined an entire load of laundry by going through the dryer and melting on EVERYTHING), I soaked the load in a heavy concentration of oxy (I think it was about 2 cups for a large load.) Not a spot left. That said, it did fade the load a bit, but nothing was ruined. I swear by Oxyclean for everything.
Saturday night, I spilled wine all over the sleeve of a light grey shirt. My friend told me to try Masters Brush Cleaner. It's a soap to clean oil paint out of brushes. It worked, you can't even tell there was a giant stain. It costs about $5 in art supply stores.
Wine Away (www.wineaway.com) is a wonderful product. I have, um, a history of red wine dribbles, and this product has removed every one of the stains without harming the fabric or fading or discoloring.
We also swear by OxyClean at our house for tough stains.
re: jmckee
My mom swears by wine away as well. And she's had more than her fair share of red wine spills.
re: dagwood
Worst one: right after we moved into our new house a little over 12 years ago, I had settled into my chair with a glass of chianti to watch a movie with my son. Talbot, one of our cats, decided she wanted to get in my lap and figured she could thread her way between the wine glass and the lamp. She was wrong. It went everywhere. Wine away took care of it.

G.O.O.D. Music's Big Sean recently reflected on the impact he has had on his Detroit, Michigan hometown and how proud he is of his Motown roots.
Talking to radio personality Tim Westwood, Sean recalled how proud he has made his grandmother.
"When I got the key to the city when I got back to Detroit, [it was best moment in my career]," Sean explained. "When I [looked at] the expression on my grandma's face — she wanted me to go to school and I didn't go and to just see her so happy and proud and to see my mom so proud and be able to support them, that was the best…It's tight that I could be a vessel for my city, as a Detroit player and just carry that legacy. I'm just excited to be here. I'll be as exhausted as I've ever been, but you'll never here me complain. I'll tell you I'm tired, but I'll never be like, 'I don't wanna do this'…I'll always do what I can do until I can't do it. Flat out." (Tim Westwood TV)
In June, Sean talked to SOHH about his new Finally Famous album representing Detroit.
"H*ll yeah, I represent Detroit in everything I do," Sean told SOHH when asked if he is ready to carry the torch for his city. "That's my city, they show me love. Detroit is a city where you have to earn your love. I earned their love and they show me love back. Everything I do is for my city. Detroit has the most soul in the world and I feel like it's my shot to show it to the whole world and show a different perspective than Eminem shows. But shout-out to Em, shout-out to Kid Rock and Royce Da 5'9, Trick Trick, Slum Village, Street Lord." (SOHH)
Sean also said if fans listen closely, they can notice the multiple Detroit rap influences in his music.
"H*ll yeah I was influenced by Detroit rappers," Sean added. "I feel like you can hear the lyricism from Eminem, Royce Da 5'9 in my music. I try to keep some soul in my music as well. You can hear the J. Dilla, Slum Village. I feel like every Detroit artist you can hear a little bit of them in me." (SOHH)
A month prior, Detroit's eLZhi talked to SOHH and gave his impression of the hip-hop rookie.
"We done kicked it out in L.A. together and he pulled me out on stage and introduced me to 'his' audience of fans who might not know who I [am]," eL told SOHH. "It's much love to him. He's a real cool brother and I definitely like what he's doing. I let him know numerous amounts of times that I've seen him out there [and] I like what he's doing. What's crazy is [rapper] Mike Posner is trying to get me and Big Sean on a record together. So once everybody is free and able to do that, we're gonna jump in the studio and knock that out. It's just a matter of timing. I got with Mike Posner [about a month ago] and he said, 'Let's make it happen.' Everybody is definitely down to do it, we're just trying to figure out when the time's right." (SOHH)
