Breastfeeding Facts: Is Breastfeeding Best for Baby?
The Bottle Feeding vs Breastfeeding Debate

Lupus and Pregnancy: A 'Miracle Baby'
Surgical Procedures for Endometriosis
The decision to breastfeed has gone from a private choice to a hot-button issue. It's the subject of federal advertising campaigns and the nightly news. Some media reports claim that a formula-only feeding strategy could jeopardize your baby's health. But, according to experts, saying 'no' to nursing might not be so bad after all. We weigh in on the breastfeeding vs. bottlefeeding controversy...
Breast milk offers some clear benefits over formula. Research shows that breastfed babies have a lower risk of developing ear infections, respiratory infections and chronic diarrhea. The antibodies, nutrients and vitamins in a mom's breast milk also transmit an impressive defense system to her infant.
Moms benefit, too. Women often experience a sense of calm during nursing that enhances mother-baby bonding. What's more, they enjoy faster uterine contraction post-delivery, a degree of natural contraception (although not 100% effective) and quicker weight loss when breastfeeding (or pumping) full-time. (A woman burns an extra 200 to 500 calories a day while she's nursing!) And let's not forget a reduced risk of breast, uterine and ovarian cancer.
However, it's the long-term benefits to the baby that are up for debate – and sparking some serious maternal guilt.
Breastfeeding has been touted as a way to reduce the risk of infant mortality and to lower your offspring's odds of contracting such serious diseases as diabetes, autoimmune illnesses and cancer. Breastfed infants are also said to develop higher IQs and even better social skills.
That may be taking it too far, says Rebecca Goldin, Associate Professor of Mathematical Sciences at George Mason University and Director of Research at the media watchdog group STATS. "Once we went back to the original research these claims were being based on, we were shocked to find a wealth of badly done studies."
Dr. Goldin says that although some of the benefits were supported by solid research (among them, reduced risk of colds and certain infections), others were debatable. She and her colleagues found questionable support for claims of increased diabetes risk, lower IQs and higher mortality rates among children who were formula-fed as infants.
But even in the face of such confusion, there are still solid incentives to nurse, Goldin says.
Breastfeeding Facts: Breast Is Best?
Launched in 2004, the federally funded program "Babies Were Born to Be Breastfed" set off a national maelstrom when advocates compared women who didn't breastfeed to women who smoke during pregnancy. What began as a well-intentioned plan to encourage breastfeeding created widespread guilt and confusion. According to Goldin, the choice to not breastfeed is "hardly similar to a woman smoking during pregnancy."
The campaign recommended that women breastfeed exclusively for six months, and aimed to increase compliance by 50% by the year 2010. This means nursing on demand or supplementing by pumping and storing breast milk.
Unfortunately, these guidelines are often hard to meet for moms juggling the demands of career, older children and daily life. More than 60% of new moms return to work, often within 12 weeks of giving birth, per the federally mandated maternity leave program.
The logistics of breastfeeding at work are formidable. A woman must find a private place to pump several times a day and a place to keep her milk chilled and stored. Plus, she has to transport bottles and an insulated carrier to and from work each day, as well as boil the bottles and valves regularly to sanitize them between uses.
Odds are she's also getting up several times during the night to nurse her infant, which can be exhausting physically and mentally.
Add to these obstacles the fact that most workplaces and public venues are hardly conducive to nursing or pumping. In effect, moms are getting the message that they should breastfeed, but society isn't supporting it. Last fall, a woman named Emily Gillette was kicked off a Delta Air Lines flight for breastfeeding her daughter and refusing to cover up with a blanket offered to her by a flight attendant.
Breastfeeding Facts: Making it Work for You
More than 75% of women breastfeed their newborns while they're in the hospital after giving birth. By the time their babies are three months old, 41% of women are still breastfeeding exclusively. By six months, only 14% are still nursing. Based on these figures, breastfeeding for half a year proves unrealistic for the vast majority of new mothers.
Logistics aren't the only problem. Some women try to breastfeed, but find they are physically unable. Insufficient milk production, problems getting the baby to latch on and significant breast and nipple pain all can stand in the way of successful breastfeeding.
Chicago pediatrician Dr. Bill Barrows says bad information and advice are culprits, too. He gives his patients simple rules to overcome setbacks. For example, limit feedings to 20 minutes or less, with equal time on each breast. Feed at 2-hour intervals, from the
of one session to the
of the next.
He encourages his patients to breastfeed, but explains that it's not for everyone.
Breastfeeding Facts: Hope for the Future
The Surgeon General has released a breastfeeding "Blueprint," with hopes of increasing breastfeeding rates by 2010. The goals aim to have 50% of women still breastfeeding when their babies are 6 months old and 25% when they're 12 months old.
To reach these goals, women need more support and information, especially lower-income and young moms. Studies show that women are most likely to breastfeed when they are older, college-educated and affluent, which suggests the decision is affected by education and – perhaps more significantly – resources.
A new mother needs to keep herself healthy enough to care for her infant in the way that's best for both of them. For some women, that means little or no breastfeeding. (Remember, stress shows up in the body hormonally and neurochemically and gets passed along to the baby via breast milk.) For others, full-time breastfeeding works well.
As Dr. Barrows says, "Guilt doesn't work very well in getting patients to breastfeed. All we can do is educate them in the pros and cons, and help them make the decision that's best for their family."
Research suggests that 75% of new moms plan to breastfeed. More support would help them actually do it. To learn more about how you can make breastfeeding go more smoothly, read our

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux have battled break up rumors in the past, but the fact that Jennifer spent her 45th birthday without her fiancé has added fuel to the fire.
Jennifer celebrated her birthday in Los Angeles, with a low-key dinner with friends, while Justin celebrated Jen's birthday with the newly single, Orlando Bloom, in New York.
Theroux is in New York filming HBO show, The Leftovers, which is what reportedly kept him from heading to the West Coast for Aniston's birthday celebration. Meanwhile, Jennifer was in California on Monday, where she interviewed Gloria Steinem, at the Makers Conference. They discussed the pressure society places on women to marry and have children, with Jen saying,
"Our worth is basically associated with our marital status or whether or not we have procreated."
Besides Aniston's birthday, Theroux attended the funeral of his good friend Philip Seymour Hoffman in New York, solo.
Are the couple broken up or is their work just keeping them apart?

Serious Eats gives us the history of fried green tomatoes. It's a dish that always sounds better than it is. But I'm not deterred. I just think I haven't had made properly yet.

A few weeks ago, Holland Cotter reviewed the new Matisse show in the Times:
For Matisse, self-appointed purveyor of luxe, calme, and volupté, it seems that trial-and-error rawness, some evidence of struggle, validated the work. You find a lot of such evidence in the zesty pinned-paper maquettes he made in 1943 for his book "Jazz," for which he had high hopes. But when it was finally published in 1947, he hated it. All the irregularities of texture, the paper-on-paper depths, what Matisse referred to as the "sensitivity" of the designs, were missing. Printing had cleaned and pressed them in high-contrast graphics, polished, perfect and dead.
Texture. It's the first thing I noticed about today's apple a day: Hudson's Golden Gem. It is rough and beautiful like a pear. Close your eyes and take a bite and damn if it doesn't taste like a pear too.
Today's apple-a-day is: Calville blanc d'hiver.
It's tart with some sweetness. Not cloyingly sweet though. Almost too tart for my taste, at least as an eating apple (as opposed to a baking one).
And it's beyond crisp. It's dense and hard and crunchy.
The heirloom apple a day is: Reine des Reinettes.
This one has a lovely name, especially when a French-speaking person like my Ma says it.
My mom visited over the weekend and brought with her a fun treat from up north. A selection of apples. Five different varieties.
And so: An Apple a Day. First up, the Esopus Spitzenburg.
It's a little tart but not too tart. Not mushy or crisp, somewhere in between.
I'm not expert but it's a good apple.
Veeeeerry Serious (like a Peek Frean).
The Wife is a cheap date in some respects. For Valentine's Day all she wants is a small box of Russell Stover chocolates. Last year I couldn't find any so I bought her a box of chocolates from Jacques Torres. She appreciated the gesture, of course, but not the chocolate. Russell Stover it is–but not Whittman's, she says. "I won't eat that crap."
Over at Serious Eats, here's a taste test: Russell Stover vs. Whittman's.
Oh, man. Kottke delivers with this post on how to buy olive oil. It stars Tom Mueller who wrote an absorbing book about olive oil (birthday gift from mom).
I use a basic Fairway brand for cooking and then have a couple of nicer ones for more delicate things like salads. Frantoia does me right though I'm far from an expert.

Gulf Keystone Transfer of Algeria Permit to BG Group Advances
Feb. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Gulf Keystone Petroleum Ltd., a London-listed oil and natural gas explorer, said that the transfer of the company's interest in the Hassi Ba Hamou permit in Algeria has advanced.
All required documentation has been executed and all government approvals obtained for the transfer of the right, title and interest for no consideration, Gulf Keystone said in a statement. The company is giving the interest to the BG Group Plc, the operator, and Sonatrach Group, Algeria's state-run energy company.
Gulf Keystone is pulling out of the north African nation to focus on the Kurdistan region of Iraq, home to about 40 percent of the country's 115 billion barrels of reserves. Gulf Keystone has announced the discovery of as much as 10 billion barrels of oil in the Shaikan field.
"We are pleased that with the HBH transfer we have made good progress towards achieving our goal of a gradual strategic exit from Algeria," Gulf Keystone chief executive officer Todd Kozel said in the statement. " We are firmly focused on our operations spanning four exploration blocks in the Kurdistan region of Iraq."

Wear a cool trench coat and blast vampires
Vampire Origins HD combines slick design and hard-core vampire-blasting action, but falls short of great with poor writing and repetitive gameplay.
Load your shotgun, put on your trench coat, and find your best black hat. The first thing you notice about Vampire Origins HD for iPad ($4.99) is the great artistic style and smooth UI. Chillingo (makers of InkVaders HD and Angry Birds) seems to have a great eye for design, but in the case of VOHD, game writing does not appear to be a priority.
Despite the coolness of the hero character, Vincent, and the fact that you get to destroy plenty of vampires, transitional screen graphics contain less-than-inspired prose. Add the lackluster variety in the gameplay and Vampire Origins HD becomes a "fun for a minute, but not likely to keep me interested" sort of game. In this case, it seems as though most of the efforts in the development of VOHD went into art direction, sacrificing the total experience.
Though Vampire Origins HD looks like it should be great, it seems more like a working concept of a game. With better writing and more interesting gameplay, Chillingo could bring VOHD out of the throw-away pile and into your primary rotation of time-wasters.

Independent forum to review health service shake-up
Proposals for changes to the health service will be assessed by an independent body, the Welsh Government has announced.
Plans by local health boards (LHBs) to "modernise" services will be reviewed by the new National Clinical Forum.
Health Minister Lesley Griffiths said changes to the NHS should not be treated as a "political football".
Plaid Cymru called it "an astonishing admission of no confidence in the LHBs".
Ms Griffiths said LHBs would submit plans in the next few weeks.
The medical director of NHS Wales, who will chair the group, said there was an "increasing consensus" that some services would have to change to make them safe and sustainable.
The forum will give independent advice to LHBs on potentially controversial plans for shake-ups in the health service.
It will include representatives of doctors' and nurses' groups.
'Modern'"Start Quote
End Quote Betsan Powys BBC Wales political editorSuch is the financial crisis facing the NHS in Wales over the next few years that change is pretty much inevitable now"
Mrs Griffiths said: "In the next few weeks, LHBs will be submitting their plans on how they plan to deliver modern, effective healthcare for their local communities.
"Their proposals must be based on addressing long term clinical needs and improving health outcomes, not based on short-sighted vested interests and free from political point-scoring.
"This is too important an issue to become a political football. That is why I am establishing an independent group to assess the proposals from a clinical perspective."
The forum would make sure the plans are in patients' interest and based on sound clinical advice, she said, adding that it will "consider important interdependencies that require a regional approach to ensure the best solutions for Wales".
'Loud and clear'
NHS Wales medical director Dr Chris Jones said: "There is now an increasing consensus that in order to deliver safe, sustainable and high quality patient care, some services will have to change.
Labour paid a heavy price at the 2007 assembly election when there was an attempt to tinker with hospitals.
Rightly or wrongly, voters went to the ballot box fearing for the future of local services.
The Welsh Government clearly does not want a repeat of that controversial attempt at NHS reconfiguration.
Henceforth, proposals to downgrade, close, centralise or shift services will need the approval of the National Clinical Forum.
Local health boards are due to submit "modernisation" plans soon and Health Minister Lesley Griffiths says they must not be be treated as political footballs.
It remains to be seen whether that will be enough to stop opponents laying the blame at her door if voters start worrying about travelling further to get to hospital.
"But we need to ensure that the proposals meet clinical best practice and deliver services of the highest quality, and also that comprehensive engagement with patients and staff is undertaken before any decisions are made."
The group is expected to meet for the first time next month.
It will include representatives from organisations including Public Health Wales, Wales Ambulance Services Trust and specialisms including nursing, midwifery, general practice and surgery.
Plaid Cymru health spokesperson Elin Jones said: "This announcement is an astonishing admission of no confidence in the LHBs by the health minister, despite the fact that they are appointed by her.
"It is noticeable from the minister's announcement that the new forum will be a national body.
"However, what is important is that local needs are heard loud and clear when considering any changes to NHS services - and that those needs are not ignored as Labour tries to push through its programme to centralise hospital services."

By: JOHN BRAGG III, Post Columnist
Posted: Thursday, February 7, 2013 12:00 am
The other night I sat down to watch Martin McDonagh's film "Seven Psycopaths" and came to the conclusion that he is one of the most talented writers and directors working today.
McDonagh was born in London, England, to Irish parents and began his career in the mid-1990s writing for the stage. After winning awards for his plays, he focused his attention to screenwriting.
His first film was "Six Shooter," a black comedy that garnered him a 2005 Academy Award and cemented his place into the realm of film, which he followed up with "In Bruges."
I've written a few times about "In Bruges" because it's one of my favorite movies.
What I love even more about it is that it is set in the idyllic, preserved town that seems to have been untouched since the 1100s. The city provided an amazing backdrop to McDonagh's tale about two London hit men sent to the Flemish city after a botched job.
It's a hilarious take on a violent film, and I was hoping "Seven Psycopaths" would live up to my expectations.
It did, more than I thought was possible.
The movie is based around an Irish screenwriter named Martin (Colin Farrell) who is working on a script about seven psychotic killers.
While he has an outline for what the film should be he has no idea what to write about, so he spends his time drinking and trying to form ideas.
Through Martin we meet Billy (Sam Rockwell), a friend who doubles as a dog thief.
He goes to various parks around L.A. stealing people's dogs then going to their house to reap the reward after keeping the pups for a few days.
Things go well enough until Billy steals a shih tzu from a psychopathic gangster who turns out to be one of the seven mentioned in the title.
The gangster is very protective of his dog, so he sends his men out to find it.
What happens next involves all seven psychopaths, Billy, and Martin. Things get absolutely insane for the rest of the movie, but I'll leave you to find that out.
What I was very glad to see from McDonagh in this film was the talent that made "In Bruges" so great.
I loved the acting, the amazingly funny and poignant dialogue, as well as the great attention to detail he can store in the screen in both films.
The angle that makes this film different from "In Bruges" is the fact it's overtly obvious the director wrote himself into the movie.
We see Martin as a depressed, thought-starved writer trying desperately to grind out a script while the world around him changes dynamically because of situations outside of his control.
Another reason why "Seven Psychopaths" is so fun to watch is McDonagh used a trick out of Wes Anderson's playbook and threw tons of references to other movies in his dialogue.
At the beginning, two gangsters are discussing Moe Green from "The Godfather."
The dog thief Billy has the last name Bickle, a direct reference to Robert DeNiro's character in "Taxi Driver," and McDonagh wrote a part about the Zodiac Killer into the script.
The references are a great addition to the other awesome twists in the plot.
If you're a fan of "In Bruges," "The Boondock Saints," or anything by Martin Scorcese you must check this film out.
It's a bloody, hilarious take on a gangster film.
I'd expect nothing less from McDonagh.

Model Ruslana Korshunova Dies In Fall From NYC High-Rise
UPDATE: The medical examiner's office has ruled the death a suicide.
>> Sad news for the modeling industry today: 20-year-old Ruslana Korshunova fell to her death in an apparent suicide around 2:30 pm Saturday.
Although the fall is still under investigation, the Kazakhstani model known as IMG's "Russian Rapunzel" for her long flowing hair apparently jumped from her ninth-floor apartment in Manhattan's Financial District. Officials said there were no signs of a struggle in the apartment, where Ruslana had been living for only two months, and the balcony from which she fell had construction netting around it which appeared to have been deliberately ripped.
Ruslana was first discovered in November 2003 by Models 1 booker Debbie Jones, who saw her in an in-flight magazine article about her hometown in Kazakhstan, Almaty: "She looked like something out of a fairytale! We had to find her and we searched high and low until we did! She's really incredible with feline features and timeless beauty."
Since then, Ruslana appeared on the covers of Russian Vogue and French Elle, in ads for Marc by Marc Jacobs, Vera Wang, DKNY, and Christian Dior, and walked in numerous runways for the likes of Marchesa, Libertine, Y-3, Alberta Ferretti and Marc by Marc Jacobs.
A making of video of Ruslana's Nina by Nina Ricci fragrance television ad below.
Three months ago, Ruslana posted online: "I'm so lost. Will I ever find myself?" but Saturday, a friend said that she had just returned from a job in Paris and seemed to be "on top of the world." Her ex-boyfriend had just dropped her off at her apartment at 5 am that morning, after they watched the movie Ghost. And her best friend, Kira Titeneva avowed: "There's no way she would have killed herself. She loved life so much." Rest in peace, Ruslana.

The Tyrannosaurus rex had a very strong bite; probably stronger than any other land animal. The force of its jaw would have been similar to that of a medium sized- elephant sitting on you.
The tyrant lizard, also known as Tyrannosaurus rex, had the strongest bite of any known land animal, new research suggests.
"Our results show that the T. rex had an extremely powerful bite, making it one of the most dangerous predators to have roamed our planet," study researcher Karl Bates, of the University of Liverpool, said in a statement.
Younger T. rexes didn't have such strong bites, the researchers found, which probably meant they had a different diet and relied less on the fearsome bite than their older counterparts. This differing diets likely led reduced competition between generations of T. rex, the researchers said. [Image Gallery: The Life of T. Rex]
The new estimate of bite force is higher than past estimates that relied on indent measures in which they pressed down the skull and teeth onto a bone until they got the imprints that matched those on fossils. In the new study, the researchers created a computer model of the dinosaur's jaw by first digitally scanning skulls from an adult and juvenile T. rex, an allosaurus, an alligator and an adult human. They used these scans to model each animal's bite.
"We took what we knew about T. rex from its skeleton and built a computer model," Bates said. "We then asked the computer model to produce a bite so that we could measure the speed and force of it directly."

BT has hailed the progress of fibre optic broadband as a key factor behind the company's latest strong financial results, revealing that up to 70,000 properties are signing up to the network each week.
The company said that over 20 million properties throughout the UK are now able to access its Openreach broadband service, although only 15% of these have so far registered for the superfast networks.
Overall, the company said, three million homes and business have signed up to its fibre optic network, 2.3m with BT, and the remainder with other broadband providers which use its network, including TalkTalk and Sky.
In the company's annual operating results, released today, BT said it had added 341,000 premises to the fibre-optic broadband network over the previous quarter (ending 30 June 2014), a 29% increase on the year before.
BT has also added 104,000 broadband customers in the quarter, a 64% share of the overall broadband market growth in the quarter, and an increase which helped its consumer division see a 10% rise in revenues.
"We have made a good start to the year," BT chief executive Gavin Patterson said. "Our fibre broadband network now covers more than twenty million premises. We are passing over 70,000 additional premises each week and demand is strong."
Patterson also highlighted that BT has announced a further 2,500 new jobs in recent months to support the company's investments in fibre and customer service, following new rules from Ofcom which state that any customer complaints must be dealt with quickly.
He also mentioned the company's newly-announced BT One Phone package, a cloud-based mobile offering for businesses which it says will help cut costs and provide better and more reliable calls for SMEs.
BT announced a 0.5% increase in revenues, totalling £4.4bn, with core earnings staying stable compared to previous results at £1.4bn, both of which were in line with forecasts.
"We are building on solid foundations and I am confident we will deliver on our strategy," Patterson said.

Last week, for example, Dow Chemical announced a 20 percent across-the-board price increase on its products, which range from antifreeze to cleaning fluids to pharmaceuticals.
Similar moves are expected. "It's just the tip of the iceberg," says Ann Paulins, director of the School of Human and Consumer Sciences at Ohio University in Athens. "The retailers can't absorb it all."
That sentiment is echoed by Wegmans, a grocery chain based in Rochester, N.Y., that normally tries to keep price increases to a minimum. Now, however, prices are rising on nearly every shelf.
"We're talking increased raw materials, packaging, transportation, the whole ball of wax," says Jo Natale, a spokeswoman. "We have tried to absorb as many increases as possible to remain competitive, but we have reached the point where retail prices have to go up."
Late this spring, the CEOs of some major consumer-products companies also said they had to start to recoup higher energy costs.

"The letter obviously, referred to our anti-gun efforts but there's 12,000 people (who) are going to get killed this year with guns and 19,000 that are going to commit suicide with guns, and we're not going to walk away from those efforts," Bloomberg said. One letter addressed to the mayor's office was opened at the city government's mail facility, Browne said.The suspicious material found in the two letters was a "pink-orange oily substance," he said, adding that it was the second of two tests that showed what appeared to be trace amounts of ricin. What is ricin?The substance is being tested at the National Bioforensic Analysis Center in Maryland, with conclusive results expected by Friday.

The symptoms have since subsided.Civilian workers showed no symptoms, Browne said in a statement."We take a lot of security measures as you know," Bloomberg said. "The men and women that open the mail for example ... they are well trained."The second letter to the mayor was opened by Mark Glaze, director of Mayors Against Illegal Guns -- founded and co-chaired by Bloomberg -- in Washington on Sunday. Browne's statement appeared to indicate Glaze showed no symptoms.A spokeswoman for the organization declined to comment Wednesday.Opinion: Ricin - almost never deadlyBoth letters were postmarked in Shreveport, Louisiana, on May 20, the American Postal Workers Union said on its website.Bloomberg is an outspoken critic of current gun laws. In March, he said nationwide background checks on all gun sales would save lives."We know that's true, because in states that already require background checks on private sales, the rate of women murdered by an intimate partner armed with a gun is 38% lower than in states that don't have such background checks," he said.FBI spokesman Jim Margolin told CNN the agency is working to determine from where the letters were sent and who sent them. If inhaled, injected or ingested, less than a pinpoint of ricin can kill a person within 36 to 48 hours because of the failure of the respiratory and circulatory systems. There is no known antidote for the toxin, which is derived from castor beans.It has been included in letters in the past few months sent to President Barack Obama and other officials.In April, letters were sent to Obama; Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Mississippi; and Sadie Holland, a judge in Lee County, Mississippi. James Everett Dutschke of Tupelo, Mississippi, has been charged with possession and use of a biological agent in connection with the case.Last week, FBI agents arrested Matthew Ryan Buquet after a grand jury charged him with mailing threatening communication to a senior judge in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington state.The FBI said in a statement that tests -- conducted by that agency and the Spokane Regional Health District -- showed that a suspicious substance found with the letter was "active ricin toxin."There are no indications the cases are connected.Man, 37, arrested in probe of Washington state ricin-laced lettersMore from usEngineer in California Metrolink train crash diesTake a stroll through America's Skid Row, in downtown Los AngelesReport: Clinton had no official State Dept. email addressPowered by Livefyre

I really like this stitch (had never tried it before), since I crochet looser than many others, using the 5.0 mm hook, I reached 19.05 cm square with just the main body. This was a decent size for a dishcloth, so stopped there. Will try a smaller hook next time and add the edging! Thanks for posting this pattern.
i've made many of these and also do not use the border in the patter but just work a simple border around. My friends love to get there as gifts.
Love, love love this web site! Never crocheted before, and with the videos provided, I have been able to do the impossible before! Please keep videos coming! So much easier!
How do I just print the pattern? Comments are nice by don't need to print 91 comments just to get the pattern. love this website! I check it out everyday.
This is NOT an easy stitch. Consider changing the ability category to "advanced".
I've made a few of these and haven't had any problems following the pattern. I prefer not to make the border as called for in the pattern, I just make my own.

Rochester, Minn.
Describes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
This phase I clinical trial investigates the side effects and the best dose of local (intrapleural measles virus therapy in treating patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). The investigators anticipate that the intrapleural of the vaccine strain measles virus will enable the virus to specifically infect and kill cancer cells and spare, without damaging normal cells. Furthermore, the investigators expect the measles virus to trigger an anti-tumor immune response which will result in additional destruction of the tumor by immune cells.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for belinostat when combined with CHOP regimen and establish the recommended belinostat dose for the Phase 3 study.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.
Hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT) are one treatment option for people with leukemia or lymphoma. Family members, unrelated donors or banked umbilical cordblood units with similar tissue type can be used for HCT. This study will compare the effectiveness of two new types of bone marrow transplants in people with leukemia or lymphoma: one that uses bone marrow donated from family members with only partially matched bone marrow; and, one that uses two partially matched cord blood units.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.
Each year, the number of breast cancer survivors who choose post-mastectomy breast reconstruction keeps rising. Among women who elect to pursue breast reconstruction, approximately 75% will choose prosthetic breast reconstruction. Implant-based breast reconstruction is frequently achieved in two-stages. The first stage consists of the placement of a tissue expander after mastectomy. This is followed by a period of weekly tissue expansions that can last several months. In the second stage, the tissue expander is removed in a surgical procedure and replaced with a permanent breast implant. Tissue expansion is a well-established breast reconstruction technique characterized by high success rates and high patient satisfaction. Despite the well-recognized advantages of this successful breast reconstruction technique, the subpectoral placement of a tissue expander is associated with significant pain and discomfort in the immediate post-operative period and during the phase of tissue expansion. Pectoralis major muscle spasm is a frequently reported problem during tissue expansion. Legeby et al. recently showed that women who underwent prosthetic breast reconstruction had higher pain scores and took more analgesics that those who did not choose post-mastectomy reconstruction.
In the past 10 years, publications on the use of BTX-A for pain relief in a wide array of clinical conditions have increased tremendously. BTX-A is one of the neurotoxins produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. By reversibly inhibiting neurotransmitter release, BTX-A has both analgesic and paralytic properties. The analgesic action of BTX-A was initially thought to be related to its effects on muscular contraction. However, a recent in vitro study of embryonic rat dorsal neurons did confirm that BTX-A inhibits release of substance P, a neurotransmitter associated with pain and inflammatory reactions. The presence of analgesic properties of BTX-A is increasingly supported by several clinical observations: pain relief with BTX-A injections has been reported for migraine headaches, chronic pelvic, chronic tennis elbow, and post-operative pain control for lower limb lengthening correction, among others.
This aspect has never been studied in breast cancer survivors who elect to pursue breast reconstruction with tissue expanders. Furthermore, physical function outcomes are important to consider with BTX-A use because the link between temporary muscle paralysis and improvements in participation in daily activities is not a given.
The investigators propose to complete a double-blinded prospective randomized controlled trial of women undergoing unilateral and bilateral mastectomies with immediate placement of tissue expanders, to establish the efficacy and safety of BTX-A in alleviating pain and in improving physical well-being during the expansion period.
The purpose of this study is to show that improvements in the molecular breast imaging (MBI) technology will allow reduction of the administered dose of Tc-99m sestamibi while maintaining a sensitivity of 90% for tumor detection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cryoablation therapy used to treat tumors in patients with pulmonary metastatic disease. This study is to enroll patients who will undergo cryoablation of at least 1 metastatic pulmonary tumor that is less than or equal to 3.5cm. Patients will be followed 24 months post their cryoablation procedure.
Jacksonville, Fla.
This multicenter, randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and sa fety of MPDL3280A as monotherapy or in combination with Avastin (bevacizumab) ve rsus sunitinib in patients with previously untreated locally advanced or metasta tic renal cell carcinoma. Patients in Arm A will receive MPDL3280A 1200 mg IV ev ery 3 weeks (eight 6-week cycles or up to 1 year) plus Avastin 15 mg/kg IV until disease progression. Patients in Arm B will receive MPDL3280A alone (up to 1 ye ar), and patients in Arm C will receive sunitinib 50 mg orally daily for 4 weeks followed by 2 weeks rest until disease progression. Following disease progressi on, patients in Arms B and C will be given the option to receive combination tre atment with MPDL3280A and Avastin.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. It is not yet known whether giving bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab together alone is more effective than giving bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab together with bortezomib or lenalidomide in treating follicular lymphoma.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying giving bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab together with or without bortezomib followed by rituximab with or without lenalidomide to see how well they work in treating patients with high-risk stage II, stage III, or stage IV follicular lymphoma.
This is a Phase II therapeutic trial combining Decitabine days 1-5 with oral Vorinostat twice daily days 6-15 followed by a single infusion of CD3-/CD19- enriched donor natural killer (NK) cells on day 17 and a short course of Interleukin-2 (IL-2) to facilitate NK cell survival and expansion. Two courses of treatment will be given separated by 6-8 weeks. The intent is to administer all treatment in the outpatient setting.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
This is a trial of AGS-003, which is being studied as a possible treatment for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an overall survival (OS) benefit between subjects treated with AGS-003 in combination with standard treatment versus subjects treated with standard treatment alone.

5 Great Stadiums Making Up for Bad Baseball Teams
Citi Field
It was bad enough when the bank in its name was the only thing collapsing; the Mets haven't had a winning season since their new stadium opened in 2009, the Wilpon family of owners was nearly cleaned out by Bernie Madoff, team chemistry has been unstable and stars such as Jose Reyes and R.A. Dickey ended up in Toronto, while high-priced ace Johan Santana went from pitching the franchise's first no-hitter last year to a potentially career-ending injury this year.
In short, the Mets stink and their prospects for getting better in the near future aren't great.
Fortunately for fans, that means there's nothing to distract them while waiting on line for a burger at Shake Shack. Citi Field's mock Ebbets Field entrance, its Jackie Robinson Rotunda inside, its home run apple, Wiffle ball field for kids and Mets museum inside are all lovely, but it's really the food that steals the show. Even before Citi Field moved in its fences in response to home-team hitters' complaints and painted those fences Met blue to soothe the die-hards, a whole different class of fan was coming to the ballpark just to get some Blue Smoke BBQ, fries from Box Frites or kimchi and Korean BBQ from Cafe Hanover. Even Mama's of Corona churned Italian sandwiches and blue-and-orange stuffed pastry tubes for folks who don't much care about obstructed views and pitchers' parks. As long as the pastrami was hot, piled high between slices of rye bread, packaged with a sour pickle and paired with a Brooklyn Brewery or Sixpoint beer, all was right with the world. Those fans are even happier now that a 7% drop in ticket prices put the average cost of seeing the Mets at $25.30, or below the league average and less than half the price of going to a Yankee game ($51.55).Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Association ready to play lead role in formulating guidelines
CHENNAI: The Indian Association of Bronchology has expressed the need for a recognised certificate course in bronchoscopy. It has also come forward to play a leading role in formulating guidelines for different bronchoscopic procedures.
At the inaugural session of the association's 10th national conference here on Friday, Dr. V.K. Vijayan, outgoing president and director of V.P. Chest Institute, New Delhi, said training bronchoscopists was a challenge in the country due to varied infrastructure at hospitals and nursing homes. Training now was happening more on a trial-and-error basis. "However, we do not have recommendations for optimal bronchoscopy training. We have written to the National Board of Examinations for conducting a certificate programme in bronchoscopy." Formulating guidelines for bronchoscopy was a must in the context of Consumer Portction Act.
Pratap C. Reddy, chairman, Apollo Group of Hospitals, chief guest, appreciated the association's efforts in bringing together bronchologists from various parts of the country. The three-day seminar would provide an ideal platform for exchange of expertise. Indian professionals were respected worldwide, he said and urged the doctors to believe that they were capable of innovation.
Dr. Nalini Krishnan, medical director, The Hindu, guest of honour, said there were several occupational health problems that were going unnoticed for want of information. She urged the doctors to communicate the advances in their area of specialisation with others.
Awards given
The association awarded the lifetime achievement award to Prof. Dr. S.K. Sarkar, cardiothoracic surgeon, SMS Medical College, Jaipur, and a special appreciation award to M.S. Nanjundaiah for his contribution to the association. Dr. Nalini Krishnan presented the awards.
Dr. Rajan Santosham, organising chairman for the seminar, and Dr. R. Narasimhan, organising secretary, also spoke.

Morrison issues Baggies warning
West Brom midfielder James Morrison believes Aston Villa cannot be underestimated despite the contrasting fortunes of the clubs going into Saturday's derby.The Baggies are riding high in ninth in the Barclays Premier League after winning their last two matches, scoring seven goals into the bargain.Villa, meanwhile, are just two points above the relegation zone on the back of a run of three successive league defeats.Ahead of the game at Villa Park, Morrison rightly concedes that "form goes out of the window in a derby".Speaking to the Birmingham Mail he added: "We're on a decent run and they haven't been at their best, but they've got some decent players and we'll have to be wary of them."They'll be looking to bounce back after defeats. It'll be a tough game. But we're on a high, so it will be interesting."

Tour de France: Bradley Wiggins backed by Team Sky after rant
Team Sky principal Dave Brailsford has backed Bradley Wiggins after his expletive-laden reply to a question about drugs and the Tour de France.
Britain's Wiggins, asked for his response to critics on Twitter who say riders must take drugs to win, swore four times in his answer.
He was speaking after retaining the yellow jersey on stage eight.
Brits in yellow in Tour de France
- Chris Boardman: six days, 1994 (three), 1997 (two), 1998 (one)
- David Millar: three days, 2000
- Tom Simpson: one day, 1962
- Sean Yates: one day, 1994
- Bradley Wiggins: one day*, 2012
"I totally agree with the sentiment and I like the passion, I back him 100%," Brailsford said.
Team Sky rider Wiggins won the Paris-Nice, Tour de Romandie and Criterium du Dauphine stage races this season leading into the Tour de France, and is aiming to become the first British winner of the famous race.
"The guy's just got off his bike after a very, very hard six-hour stage. He's stuffed, he comes in and then he gets asked if he's cheating," said Brailsford.
"There may be a few choice words language-wise that you could change but, apart from that, the sentiment was spot-on as far as I'm concerned and there is no issue whatsoever for me."
Asked about the Twitter critics, Wiggins also said: "I cannot be doing with people like that.
"It's easy for them to sit under a pseudonym on Twitter, rather than get on in their own lives and apply themselves and work hard at something and achieve something."
The Tour de France has a history of doping allegations, with the latest controversy seeing seven-time winner Lance Armstrong formally charged with using performance-enhancing drugs by the US Anti-Doping Agency.
Team-mate Mark Cavendish also backed Wiggins on Twitter : "Good on [Wiggins] for an honest answer in Sunday's press conference, aimed at people who know nothing better than to be sceptical."
Monday's stage nine is the first of two longer individual time trials - 41.5km from Arc-et-Senans to Besancon.
