subjects and skills
Developed by educational experts of Weekly Reader Publishing, The Weekly Reader prepares you with the kindergarten tools needed to help build a child's cognitive skills and enthusiasm for learning. Includes English, French and Spanish versions.
Learning should be positive, enjoyable, and inspirational. That is what Weekly Reader Publishing has brought to the nation's classrooms for more than a century. The Weekly Reader Magazines make learning fun and help teachers meet standards with students in grades Pre-K to 12. These award-winning periodicals cover social studies, English/language arts, science, reading. Now, you can enjoy the Weekly Reader Learning System on your computer.
See how The Learning System fits in with your unique educational requirements.
- Learning System for Parents
By taking a look at your student's syllabus or working closely with their teacher, you can understand which subjects could be supplemented by the Learning System. This is why parental participation is not only encouraged, but highly recommended. It is also recommended that you understand which areas of their homework can be supplemented by noting which subjects are being taught in their class. The product is not intended to replace school curriculum, but rather expand on it and act as an accessory tool to building your child's knowledge. Using the Learning System software has been shown to not only improve grades, but to also encourage independent study habits. Narration, video, and audio in all subjects will adapt to any sort of learning style, and actually compliments learning disabilities by providing those three options. Use Audio Books of your student learns best through listening, watch video presentations if your student learns best by example, or read through a titles chapter's if your student learns best through reading.
System for Home Schoolers
The Learning System offers great content to reinforce the curriculum used by home schoolers. The software covers key topics at all grade levels to ensure that home-schooled children get a complete and comprehensive education. The benefits of a supplementary tool as an accessory to home school curriculum are immense. For instance, if there is a subject that your child is experiencing difficulty in, what better way to reinforce their knowledge with complete video demonstrations, comprehensive narrations, and images to spark their imagination. Even if your child is not experiencing any trouble with understanding their studies, the benefits of the Learning Systems are that they provide information centered on each subject to provide a fuller understanding of what is being learned. Your student may even learn something that they did not know before!
- Learning
System In the Classroom
The combination of video, audio and images all on one computer will create a positive and independent environment. A student could access the materials in private, in a group setting, or even in a class room setting; making this software perfect for class projects as well. As confidence is built by understanding, good self-study habits will follow!
Preparing for Kindergarten helps build learning skills by making education a fun and engaging experience. Each subject is presented as a series of puzzles that make children think, recognize patterns and work through solutions.

In 1999, the Mekong Delta's agriculture accounted for 30% of Vietnam's GDP and more than 80% of its rice exports. However, without appropriate infrastructure, the delta's many canals and irrigation networks were vulnerable to salt water intruding from the South China Sea during the dry season and flooding during the rain season, thereby threatening the quality of farm soil and the reliability of harvests. Poor drinking water supply and inadequate rural transport also held back production levels and rural incomes.
- The Mekong Delta Water Resources project sought to rehabilitate water control infrastructure- salinity intrusion, irrigation, drainage, flood protection and rural drinking water supply - in 5 subproject areas covering more than 500,000 ha, to enhance productivity of the agricultural sector and increase rural incomes.
- Engineering plans were modified during project implementation to introduce greater flexibility in the operation of sluice gates and allow a shift in land use from rice to cash crops and aquaculture.
Substantially improved availability of freshwater supplies for irrigation and ability to control salinity and floods in the delta..
- Overall agricultural production has decreased slightly because of the change in cropping patterns toward more mixed uses (rice + shrimp or rice + cash crops for example), but productivity per crop has increased. The average yield for double rice cropping has increased from 4.7 t/ha in 1999 to 5.3 t/ha in 2007. The average productivity of rearing fish and shrimp in rice fields has tripled.
- Sluice gates help contain seasonal floods to allow farmers to complete their harvest.
- Average farmers' income has doubled between 1999 and 2007 from VND 300,000 to VND 625,000 (about $1,000).
- Connection rate to clean water supply has gone from about 40-30% in 1999 to about 75% at the end of 2007. About 1 million people are likely to benefit from the expansion of clean water and improved sanitation facilities.
- 41 main sluice gates and 125 secondary sluice gates built. Over 1,000 km of primary and secondary canals dredged and enlarged.
- 234 km of dikes protecting towns from floods. The impact is especially noteworthy in the O Mon – Xa No area, entirely protected by a ring dike system.
- The delta is to some extent better prepared to withstand rising sea levels and weather catastrophes.
- The doubling of water fee collections envisaged by the project did not occur: a government decree exempted all farmers and individuals from paying water fees from 1 January 2008.
- IDA credit of $102 million out of total project cost of $148 million.
- Regular supervision and meetings with local authorities helped accelerate the process of land acquisition and resettlement of households affected by the construction of new infrastructure.
- AusAid conducted a study on Delta-wide water resources management.
- The project's impact will be sustained provided proper attention is paid to operation and maintenance. Because of the decision to exempt farmers from water service fees, heavy subsidies will be needed to maintain the newly created infrastructure. But beneficiary farmers whose livelihoods depend on irrigation and drainage are likely to continue to use the new facilities effectively.
- Further investments in sea dikes and sluices could help the delta cope with the effects of climate change (droughts, floods and rising sea levels).
- Investment in agricultural processing, marketing techniques and information technology could help maximize the impact of irrigation infrastructure.

Bullying has reached epidemic levels across the United States. One organization in Middleton is teaching kids how to protect themselves.
Infinity Martial Arts is teaching kids a series of ways to stop bullying. It's happening more and more, and not just in the classroom. Kids are also turning to the web to bully others.
Instructor Mike Welch, says "we don't have to be stronger than the bully, we just need to outsmart the bully." He teaches kids to look the bully right in the eye and tell them to stop. If the bully turns physical, there are certain moves your child can do to get away from them. Then there's always the advice of just walking away.
Welch also teaches kids to be confident and assertive. Then they are less likely to become the target.

Mobile Blogging Using Dragon Dictation
Internet marketers working today would most likely agree that there is less and less time to manage all of the different aspects of the typical search and social media campaign. That's why I thought in this post I would share with you a handy little tip to help you trod through some of that sludge a little bit faster.
One of the more time-consuming tasks we often struggle with as marketers is blogging. You know you have to do it, whether for link building via guest posts, building your own personal brand, or creating keyword rich blogs that no one will ever read. And unless you're paying someone to create the posts, you're the one who has to pony up and get to it. So let's see where we can trim some time on that.
I bring you the dragon dictation app.
It's free, currently works on the iPhone and probably android though I haven't checked it out.
Here's what you do- after downloading the app, gather your thoughts. breakdown two or three bullet points and start blabbering. I've found the Dragon dictation app to be surprisingly accurate. Much more so than trying to type on the iPhone. The only downside is that it limits the number of characters that it transcribes during each session. Though I haven't noticed any limit to the number of sessions you can have while using it so you can close -reopen, close – reopen, close….well, you get the point.
If all you're looking for is a quick and easy way to post up an image with a paragraph of copy, if combined with the very good WordPress mobile app for iOS – this will definitely do the trick . Just tap the copy button on the Dragon dictation app after you're done talking, open the wordpress app and paste in. For longer posts, I find copying and pasting to the notes app first is faster. When you've got the words in wordpress, do a quick editorial run through, as you'll likely need to add some punctuation here and there – correct any proper nouns and bad grammar, etc.. Upload an image from your iphone photo library or snap one from within the app, and publish.
Booyah, you're done – and all in less than 2 minutes.
Is this a perfect solution?
Uh, no. Not by a longshot. I used the app for the whole section above using it, but decided to finish up on my main computer, at my desk.
In fact, it's likely much quicker to just type out a post on your laptop or desktop computer than trying to re-edit mangled dictation on a mobile device. You'll also need to edit the alt attributes for the images you upload, add tags to the post, etc…all of which is much better accomplished when at a real keyboard.
But as a way for quickly gathering your thoughts, and throwing into a draft for later – it's great. Nothing's perfect in this world, but anything that helps even a little can go a long way…
What about you?
Do you blog via dictation, either on your mobile device or while sitting in front of your monitors? What's the most effective way that you've found to blog?

2004 Infiniti G35 Coupe Review
6-Speed Manual
Gas Prices
Simply Amazing — It's a solid performance car right off the lot. It did lack some pick up when I first got it, but if you replace the factory intake system with the tube off of a Nissan 350z and add a K&N filter you will quickly fix this minor set back. The best thing about this car is that it is well supported by the after market industry and it is very easy to obtain performance parts. 400 hp sounds nice to me.

Style, Performance, Reliability, Maintenance
Its not an Astin Martin DB9. OK gas MPG.
Stylish, Classy, Powerful, & Reliable. — A stylish, classy, reliable, performance sedan......fairly poor gas mileage. Some reviews will state an average 25mpg....I drive mine easy, and would be happy with 21. This car is extremely fun to drive, I typically get bored with my vehicles pretty easily but I can see myself holding onto this for a while. 260 screaming horsepower on an all wheel drive platform is a joy to drive. So far has been a very reliable car, never broken down (knock on wood). Infiniti gets great style points for this car. The exterior is sporty yet classy and will hold a modern look easliy for year to come. The interior scratches just a little too easily but no more than any other car. My complaints about this car are minor: 1, BAD GAS MILEAGE, window sticker states 20-26mpg, gets 21 if your careful. Its below average. 2, Window Squeak - my right rear window was squeaking, I believe it was relatived to the minimal body roll. An easy and effective fix is to lightly grease the rubber that the window pane sits is...works great. Overall, you will be happy with this car....If you are a driving enthusiast, love to drive, enjoy performance, you can easily deal with decent gas MPG. I would highly recommend this car to anyone.

Just about everything you can imagine in a sportscar. Unequaled by anything it's price bracket.
Somewhat large blindspot and slightly small interior, but hey for a sportscar, it's not a negative, it's a feature~
Zip & Zoom... The G35 — Full marks... That's difficult to get for myself but honestly it takes owning one to know that the G35 has so much going for it. You get a fully fleshed out sports car performance with luxurious comforts on par with a well furnished 4 door sedan. Combine that with a rock solid build quality and great fun every time you drive equals to one of a few great ownership experience. The exterior also retains the refined quality of a luxurious automobile while under the bonnet lurks a beast held by a thin thread connected to the accelerator. Few words can truly describe this car and all of them are adulatory.

Poor gas mileage, price
Infiniti G35 — Needs seat coolers for the intense summer heat. Radio controls a bit awkward, otherwise, perfect in every way!

2004 Infiniti G35 x AWD Review
Car handles very well with good acceleration and solid handling.
Interior design could have been better with radio dials instead of push buttons. Brakes are persistent reliability issue.
Daily Driver 2004 G35x — I have had this car for 10 years and it has held up very well. It has been my daily driver in all types of weather. Handles competently in both dry and snow. Bose stereo sounds great and seats are comfortable with enough lateral support. Back seat, while comfortable, is a little tight, especially behind me. Reliability has been great for the age with recent repairs on wheel bearings, exhaust and brakes. The brakes have been a constant disappoint in terms of expected reliability. They wear out in about 20k miles, rotors at 40k and constant noises. The brake issues seemed to have plagued this model with other owners as well. Overall, pleased with my Infiniti, but it is time to move up to something bigger as the family grows.

interior not built to last
Xxx — Performance: Excellent take off, hugs corners .... braking system could be better.. but when you are stopping from 150 to zero... what do you expect? Build quality: Excellent .. no leaks, fit & finish still nice. Interior.... I give it about an 7... looks great.. but little things are popping off and falling off... and for 6 years old... there is definitely early signs of wear.. and for a mechanic that keeps his car in the garage... 6 years is far too soon!

Almost everything!
Great Car! — Love almost everything about this car, except the braking system. Had to replace all brake pads, calipers and rotors around 40,000 miles, however that seems to be the only problem. Love the appearance, handling, speed, acceleration, and overall feel of the car. A definite recommendation.

Scott-Clayton Proposes Changes to Pell Grant System
Judith Scott-Clayton
Professor Scott-Clayton and co-author Sandy Baum of the Institute for Higher Education Policy recommend three major Pell Grant reforms to strengthen student success and on-time completion. The Pell Grant was originally designed as a one-size-fits-all voucher intended to serve the needs of recent high school graduates from low-income families. Since the program's inception in 1972, it has grown to serve a much larger and more diverse population—9.4 million students now receive $35 billion in Pell Grant funds—even as graduation rates for recipients remain stubbornly low. Only about 45 percent of Pell recipients obtain a degree or credential within six years.
Scott-Clayton and Baum propose three major structural reforms to improve outcomes for Pell recipients. First, the authors argue that financial assistance alone will not help high-need students complete college: "Handing students money and expecting them to steer their own courses through the maze of available options is an insufficient strategy for supporting their success." Instead, they propose that the program's financial assistance should be supplemented with guidance and support services that have been shown to improve academic outcomes.
Scott-Clayton and Baum suggest that the Pell Grant program provide services tailored to meet the needs of the different populations it serves: younger, dependent students would receive personalized, technology-assisted outreach and coaching services from initial application through the first year of college; adult, independent students—who often are returning to college to obtain specific career-related credentials—would receive third-party pre-enrollment counseling to help them choose appropriate institutions and programs, as well as one-on-one guidance provided by their institution at least once per year while enrolled.
The authors also recommend that the Pell Grant program simplify the application process by automatically calculating eligibility using information retrieved electronically from tax returns and by making eligibility fixed for several years. Furthermore they argue that eligibility should be based on a simple formula based on income and family size so that students and families can easily calculate in advance what college costs will be. Finally, Scott-Clayton and Baum suggest strengthening incentives for student effort and completion, including larger grants for students who take more credits than the current Pell maximum of 24 per year, and small monetary bonuses for on-time completion.
According to the authors, the proposal would require only a minimal increase in funding. For instance, providing each Pell recipient with technology-assisted guidance and counseling worth $500—which research evidence suggests would have meaningful impacts on student outcomes—would cost $1.3 billion, less than 4 percent of current Pell spending. If not additional funds are available, services could be financed by setting the per credit award size to maintain cost neutrality.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Adam Plutko pitched seven strong innings and Pat Gallagher had three hits to lift UCLA to a 5-3 victory over San Diego State in the teams' opening game of the Los Angeles regional Friday night.
Plutko (8-3) gave up two runs over seven innings. Zack Weiss pitched a scoreless eighth and David Berg gave up a run in the ninth, but struck out the side to close out the win. Berg earned his 19th save of the season to set a school single-season record.
Ryan Doran (8-4) gave up four runs and nine hits in 5 2-3 innings in the loss.
Gallagher doubled to lead off the third inning for the Bruins (40-17) and scored on Kevin Kramer's sacrifice fly to tie it at 1. Gallagher added a two-run single to highlight UCLA's three-run fourth inning.
Jake Romanski homered for Tony Gwynn's Aztecs (31-30).

The Vampire Diaries Stars Send Congratulations to Gabby Douglasby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Move over, Missy Franklin. You aren't the only Olympian receiving best wishes from the stars.
With Justin Bieber having recorded a video message for that swimming sensation, the cast of The CW's Vampire Diaries has now gone ahead and done the same for Gabby Douglas.
While the gymnast finished last in yesterday's uneven bars, she remains one of this year's U.S. darlings, capturing team Gold and individual Gold in the all-around competition. She gets back to it this evening and Ian Somerhalder and company are here to wish her and teammate Aly Raisman the very best of luck.
Watch now:
The Vampire Diaries Season 4 gets underway on October 11.
Love the Vampires Diares so much xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :)
Gabby Douglas is truly an inspiration; I am glad to see that she is getting the recognition she deserves. Working late for my job at Dish, I knew my train ride home would coincide with her all around performance. I am so happy that I had my Dish Remote Access App, I can stream shows recorded on my DVR and live TV right to my phone. My trip home was incredible as I watched Gabby make Olympic history. It is amazing that the Vampire Diaries cast wished her luck, I can only hope for a gymnastics themed episode in the future.

Why It's Great To Be 'Good Enough'
in Women
"You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody." ~ Maya Angelou
Most people will tell you that they are their own worst critic. Are you that way? Do you often feel embarassed about your shortcomings? Do you long to be thinner, prettier, wealthier, or smarter?
If you focus on what you aren't and what you lack, it's easy to lose sight of what makes you special. Special, not in the sense that you're perfect, but in the sense that nobody can beat you being YOU. Whether you know it or not, that's not only good enough, it's necessary. If you struggle to accept yourself as you are, or you feel judged by others for not being what they think you ought to be, you should tune in today.
Find out why you can only be your best when you are being yourself. You CAN get better at accepting yourself - flaws and all, and learn to love it!

Health Collectors Dr. James and Semaj Brown stops by Good Deeds w/ Dr. Renee Sun
in Motivation
Dr. James and Semaj Brown stops by Good Deeds w/ Dr. Renee Sunday. Never in her wildest dreams, did Semaj Brown, co-founder of the Planted Kingdom Project ever imagine transforming herself into vegetable characters and bringing them into life. Nor did her husband, Dr. James Brown, a family physician, ever think that he would be her front man, warming up audiences with his humor, telling his story of how his wife saved him from his daily fast food diet, and ultimately saved his life. What did he do next? He proposed, they married, and the two have gone on to make history, transforming lives in their Flint, Michigan community.
Semaj Brown created vegetarian meals that are savory and satisfying, that would prove to help the couple lose weight. "Adopting a new healthy lifestyle of eating plant based foods, and exercise, was key to our losing a combined 200 pounds," says Semaj. After losing 75 pounds, Dr. Brown decided to motivate his patients and others in the community with his "Pounds Down Challenge", where the individual who loses the most weight wins $1,000.00. "Money is a motivating factor, for sure. January 25th, we will present our third "Pounds Down Challenge" winner, which is sponsored by my practice."
The Browns took to the airwaves hosting radio talk show programs, where Dr. Brown would answer health related questions, and the couple created the segment: "What's for Dinner Mrs. Brown?" Semaj, an accomplished poet, began to creatively give a voice to the vegetables that were the "stars" of her recipes.

EconoMeter: As gas prices go up, will economy go down?
Gary London, The London Group Realty Advisors
Answer: Yes
Any dollars put in the tank detract from dollars that could be spent elsewhere. The ripple effect will be felt throughout the economy as prices for many commodities will rise. The main beneficiaries of rising gas prices are the oil companies and the Middle East potentates and Russia: the U.S. consumer gets screwed. The irony is that it will ultimately be higher energy prices that will force more efficient land-use patterns and transportation alternatives and foster alternative energy sources.
Norm Miller, University of San Diego
Answer: No
Each penny costs the U.S. consumers about $1 billion in aggregate. If gas goes up $1 per gallon, that would knock about .75 percent off of our GDP. It would also push our behaviors towards more efficient cars. The recession in Europe will cost us about .25 percent of our GDP and the higher gas prices another .5 to 1 percent, so instead of growing at 2.5 percent we may grow at 1.5%, still a positive figure. We are more threatened by a lack of action on the long-term deficit by Congress and the bankruptcies of local governments who will claim that the lower property taxes, collected in arrears, were "unexpected".
Lynn Reaser, Point Loma Nazarene University
Answer: Yes
Each dollar hike in gasoline prices costs Americans about $130 billion a year. For 2012, that would essentially cancel the benefits of this year's payroll tax cut and extended unemployment benefits. Consumers, particularly lower income households, would have less to spend on other goods and services. Many businesses, particularly those with high transportation costs, would see profit margins squeezed. The stock market could reflect the resulting slowing in sales and earnings. While $5 per gas prices would probably not push the economy into recession, they would dampen growth. The faster and further prices rise, the greater will be the threat to the recovery.
Dan Seiver, San Diego State University
Answer: No
Rising gas prices are a concern, since they sap consumers' purchasing power, but $5 a gallon will not derail the economic recovery. If the average consumer uses 500 gallons a year (at 25 mpg this is 12,500 miles driven), an extra 50 cents a gallon costs about $5 a week. Of course, if your gas guzzler gets 10 mpg, this will hurt more (time to trade in). The U.S. economy produces each dollar of GDP with less energy than in years past, so we are not as vulnerable to oil shocks as we were. However, a shooting war in the Mideast would create an oil shock that could threaten the recovery.

Pharmaceutical Waste Disposal
Regulations in Wisconsin regarding the disposal of prescription drugs (pharmaceutical waste) may be changing in the near future. Currently it is illegal to possess a prescription medication that has not been specifically prescribed to you by a doctor.
The EPA and the FDA have recommended the following two procedures for disposing of unwanted medications:
- Most medicine should be disposed of in a landfill (normal trash) with some additional precautions to protect the environment. The guidelines are available here: www.epa.gov/ppcp.
- Certain controlled substances or pain killers that are commonly abused should be disposed of by flushing them down the drain. The listing is found here. More information from the FDA can be found on the FDA's website.
Controlled substances used in research are strictly regulated and require a DEA license. Guidelines for working with controlled substances can be found at the University of Wisconsin System Administration Page.

The ManUtd.com team are in Rome, blogging on the build-up to the Champions League final live from the Italian capital...
19:14 OK, all the gang are in the stadium now and it's time to follow the action live in Match Tracker. Thanks for following the Live blog from Rome over the past two days... here we go, come on United! (AB)
18:07 I'm taking the tram up to Stadio Olimpico. Barcelona fans are on the tram too, singing 'Man City' at us but it's all good humoured really. In fact, the majority of fans on board seem to be Catalans and they're very vocal so far but we know United fans are spread all over the city and we'll make ourselves heard when we get to the ground. Both sets of supporters seem confident - a common prediction among the Barcelona faithful is 2-0. (PD).
18:02 Our bus is stuck in heavy traffic en route to the stadium. But it's okay, we went past the Barcelona squad's hotel and they apparently haven't left yet. The game can't start without them so we should be there in time. Dimitar Berbatov's family have hitched a ride with us and are sitting near me. They've brought huge Bulgaria flags with them. (BH)
17:08 I'm in the hotel lobby, waiting to leave for the stadium with my fellow journalists. I'm actually feeling really nervous now. Even though we've achieved so much this season - count 'em: Community Shield, Club World Cup, Carling Cup, Premier League - it feels like 10 months of hard work have come down to this one match tonight. Fingers crossed the Reds will end the campaign on the highest of notes. (BH)
16:39 OK, so I lied earlier about not being here to sight-see. With hours still to kill before kick-off, I couldn't resist breaking away from the crowd to visit the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain - both are very impressive. There are fans everywhere and surprisingly, from what I've seen around the city, Barcelona's outnumber United's. I hope it's not the same at the stadio. (JT)

Gov. Bob McDonnell has reversed his predecessor's ban on state agencies' and institutions' purchase of individual-sized plastic water bottles.
Then-Gov. Timothy Kaine issued the directive that the state shouldn't buy plastic-bottled water, unless there's an emergency or health reason, as part of an overall government resource-conservation plan. Plastic water bottles are a major
source of waste worldwide, and their continued use has been criticized as adding to overall pollution.
But McDonnell scrubbed Kaine's plastic-water-bottle ban, which he said would hurt state bottled-water manufacturers. He did carry over many elements from Kaine's plan, including asking state employees to recycle, turn off lights, and employ carpooling.

George Will: Lois Lerner's serial abuses of power
Government requires trust. Government by progressives, however, demands such inordinate amounts of trust that the demand itself should provoke distrust. Progressivism can be distilled into two words: "Trust us." The antecedent of the pronoun is: The wise, disinterested experts through whom the vast powers of the regulatory state's executive branch will deliver progress for our own good, as the executive branch understands this, whether or not we understand it. Lois Lerner is the scowling face of this state, which has earned Americans' distrust.

text: Kanye West finally dropped the full length in early '04 – and it's one of the best hip hop albums of the year. Kanye is probably the hottest beats producer of the year, too, having dug through the greatest soul hooks of the past few decades for his samples, and piled on the chunkiest, catchiest, thickest beats anywhere. And if he doesn't have the greatest vocal delivery in hop hop (if he did, he'd be Superman considering his production pedigree), he makes up for it with some masterful lines, like "I gotta apologize to Mos and Kweli/is it cool to rap about gold if I told the world I copped it from Ghana and Mali?" from "Breath In Breath Out". Hilariously, Kanye also found just about the sharpest theme for a record that we've scene in a while – the tangential connection between gang bangers and frat boys! He ain't granola, he ain't bling bling, he's just a guy from Chicago with a sometimes astoundingly strong production aesthetic, very smart rhymes and a lot of people who owe him great guest spots, and deliver. Were you looking for more than that? It's a triumph, one that Chicago couldn't be more proud of!

- How to Read a Study Record
This is a phase III randomized multi-center study of equivalence comparing the radiological follow-up for patients benefiting from the correction of the esthetical relapse of the preservative treatment by fatty transfer compared with a simple supervision.
It is planned that 440 patients participate in this study which plans to compare 2 groups of patients: a group of patients which will benefit from the surgical treatment by transfer of fatty tissue and a group of patients under simple supervision.
follow-up consultations are planned in 10 in 45 days post-surgery then at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 5 years to look for the expected unwanted effects in relation with the surgery but also to estimate the impact of the fatty transfer on the rate of local and\or from a distance relapse.
During these consultations, the surgeon and the patient will also estimate the cosmetic result of the surgery thanks to a questionnaire of cosmetic evaluation and to standardized photos.

Yahoo! China! sued! in! US!
I still say: Stupid is as stupid does
Mike Moyle - No I didn't mean spelllNG checker. I meant spell checker, but if you'd prefer spelling checker or even spelllNG checker, not a problem. And check the word Alien in the original article.
The lawsuit is just wrong. If the US government allows this, while at the same time encouraging companies to do business in China, there is something seriously wrong with the law.
But if this woman succeeds in blaming Yahoo! for something that is only between her husband and the Chinese Government, I do agree with some of the other posts ... Yahoo!, Google and all other companies should immediately leave China and not do business there again until this is corrected. It would be like suing a newspaper because they printed an article and from the article a country prosecuted one of their citizens. And the organizations who encourage this type lawsuits are just a drain on our society. Unless everyone wants everyone else to be afraid to do anything lest they be sued, someone, somewhere needs to put a stop to this nonsense.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I hope that the US court throws this lawsuit out of court. One country cannot rule on the laws of another. If they do not, then should Yahoo! disobey the laws of the United States in the United States if some other country wants them to do so?
The human rights issues involved in this case is not the fault of Yahoo! or Google. They hardly should be held responsible for something they did not create.
If the wife of the dissident wishes to sue someone, perhaps it should be China. Where she would do this, I have no idea. But a US court should not be involved.
And the organizations backing this should be ashamed of themselves for leading her to believe that this has merit. They would serve their cause better if they acted in a responsible manner.
PS to whomever wrote this article: You may want to run the article through a spell checker before posting it. You have several errors in spelling and you use the wrong word in some cases.

The Women's Committee of Martha Jefferson Hospital hosted its second-annual "Squash Cancer" tournament.
Teams were signed up for $50 to play at the McArthur Squash Center at the Boar's Head Sports Club from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday.
Proceeds from the tournament go toward supporting the breast health screening days at Martha Jefferson Hospital. Those screenings can help with early breast cancer detection.
"We have had some women who have been called back after our screening days for some additional screening and we have caught some cases of breast cancer," says Sharon Greene, chair of the Squash Cancer tournament. "So it's an important service."
Martha Jefferson holds breast health screenings twice a year.

Richard Bruton, the deputy leader and financial spokesman of the opposition party, Fine Gael, has been sacked by party leader, Enda Kenny.
Bruton was sacked following his proposal of a motion of no confidence in the party leader.
Last week an opinion poll showed that the Labour Party had overtaken the opposition party in popularity. Kenny was to face Bruton's challenge on Tuesday morning.
Those supporting Kenny insist that he would have had the numbers to defeat Bruton's challenge.
Following two independent reports which suggested that governmental policies contributed to the country's economic problems Kenny had planned to put down a motion of no confidence in the Fianna Fail – Green Party coalition government.
