Treatment of pregnancy-associated breast cancer
ABSTRACT In primary breast cancer three therapeutic components-cytotoxic, endocrine and targeted antibody therapy-have led to a significant reduction in breast cancer mortality. In pregnancy associated breast cancer the right therapeutic choice is still under discussion while incidence is increasing. With an incidence of 1/3,000 to 1/10,000 pregnancies, pregnancy-associated breast cancer is the most common solid tumor in pregnancy after cervical carcinoma.
This article reviews the evidence base for the use of various treatment modalities in patients with pregnancy-associated breast cancer.
Medline review, searching for articles including years 2000 through 2008 was performed. Search was conducted for the terms "pregnancy" and "breast cancer". Cross references up to the second level were taken into account if of interest for this review.
Loco-regional therapy of pregnancy-associated breast cancer follows the general guidelines for breast cancer therapy in principle. Radiation of the breast and/or chest wall is usually not performed during pregnancy. Chemotherapy is indicated for the majority of patients with pregnancy-associated breast cancer. After the first trimester, anthracycline-based chemotherapy is regarded as the treatment standard in pregnancy. Folate antagonists such as methotrexate are strictly contraindicated as they are the main cause of fetal malformations. Adjuvant endocrine therapy with anti-estrogens during pregnancy is contraindicated. Data on targeted biological treatment, particularly for HER2/neu positive tumors during pregnancy are scarce and this treatment should be postponed until after delivery.
This article summarizes the special features of the diagnosis and primary therapy of pregnancy-associated breast cancer with particular emphasis on cytotoxic therapy.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed during pregnancy and its frequency is increasing as more women postpone their pregnancies to their thirties and forties. Breast cancer diagnosis during pregnancy and lactation is difficult and complex both for the patient and doctors. Delay in diagnosis is frequent and treatment modalities are difficult to accept for the pregnant women. The common treatment approach is surgery after diagnosis, chemotherapy after the first trimester and radiotherapy after delivery. Even though early stage breast cancers have similar prognosis, advanced stage breast cancers diagnosed during pregnancy and lactation have poorer prognosis than similar stage breast cancers diagnosed in non-pregnant women. Women who desire to become pregnant after treatment of breast cancer will have many conflicts. Although the most common concern is recurrence of breast cancer due to pregnancy, the studies conducted showed that pregnancy has no negative effect on breast cancer prognosis. In this review we search for the frequency of breast cancer during pregnancy, the histopathological findings, risk factor, diagnostic and treatment modalities. We reviewed the literature for evidence based findings to help consult the patients on the outcome of breast cancer diagnosed during pregnancy and lactation, and also inform the patients who desire to become pregnant after breast cancer according to current evidences.11/2011; 12(4):247-255.

ABSTRACT: Cancer is the second leading cause of death among women of reproductive age. Although the coincidence of pregnancy and cancer is rare and treatment may sometimes be safely delayed, the use of chemotherapeutic agents in pregnancy is sometimes unavoidable or inadvertent. We review the literature for the use of antineoplastic agents in single-agent and combination therapy from 1951 through June 2012. We also summarize the evidence relating to teratogenicity of disorder-specific combination chemotherapy treatments for those malignancies frequently encountered in women of childbearing age. Major endpoints were called "adverse pregnancy outcomes" (APOs), to include structural anomalies (congenital malformations), functional defects, blood or electrolyte abnormalities, stillbirths, spontaneous abortions (miscarriages), and fetal, neonatal, or maternal deaths. The registry totals 863 cases. Rates of APOs (and congenital malformations) after any exposure were 33% (16%), 27% (8%), and 25% (6%), for first, second, and third trimesters. Among the groups of cancer drugs, antimetabolites and alkylating agents have the highest rates of APOs. Mitotic inhibitors and antibiotics seem more benign. Mixed results were observed from single-agent exposure, often because of small numbers of exposures. As a whole, the alkylating agents and antimetabolites are more harmful when given as a single agent rather than as part of a regimen. First-trimester exposure poses a more permanent risk to the fetus. Systematic ascertainment of women early in pregnancy, preferably in a population base, is needed for assessment of true risks. Long-term follow-up is needed to rule out neurobehavioral effects.Birth Defects Research Part A Clinical and Molecular Teratology 08/2012; 94(8):626-50. DOI:10.1002/bdra.23063 · 2.21 Impact Factor
Article: High nuclear phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase expression associated with poor differentiation, larger tumor size, and an advanced stage of breast cancer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) is implicated in the malignant behavior of breast cancer cells. However, previous clinical-pathological studies have shown that expression of activated/phosphorylated ERK1/2 is not associated with enhanced proliferation and invasion of mammary carcinomas. ERK1/2 is expressed in the cytoplasm, and activated/phosphorylated ERK1/2 translocates to the nucleus. The aim of this study is to evaluate nuclear phosphorylated ERK1/2 as a biomarker for breast cancer prognosis. The clinical-pathological relation of cytoplasmic/nuclear phosphorylated ERK1/2 was analyzed in 105 surgically resected breast cancer specimens by immunohistochemistry with tissue microarray. The results showed that non-neoplastic breast tissue mainly showed faint phosphorylated ERK1/2 staining. No statistically significant association was found between the level of cytoplasmic phosphorylated ERK1/2 expression and the clinical features of the disease. High nuclear phosphorylated ERK1/2 expression was associated with high grade (poor differentiation, p = = 0.010), high T status (larger tumor size, p = 0.033), and an advanced stage (p = 0.018) of the disease. Thus, nuclear phosphorylated ERK1/2 is associated with enhanced proliferation and invasion of mammary carcinomas and may be a biomarker for breast cancer prognosis and the determination of therapeutic strategies.Polish journal of pathology: official journal of the Polish Society of Pathologists 11/2013; 64(3):163-9.

A radio receiver, in particular for vehicles, is proposed that is equipped with a decoder for decoding digitally encoded traffic news received, in particular in accordance with the RDS system. A station memory is also provided, in which all the receiver radio stations are stored in memory at regular intervals. This table is compared with a table stored in a memory of the receiver, in which the radio stations are assigned to certain regions. If a predominant match between the received radio stations and the stored radio stations is ascertained, then the associated region is output, and only traffic news associated with the applicable region is output.
1. A receiver, having
means for simultaneously tuning and processing a signal intended for audio reproduction (46, 40) and an auxiliary digital signal (38);
a decoder (10), coupled to an output of said tuning and processing means, for decoding digitally encoded traffic news contained in said auxiliary signal;
a memory device (12), coupled to an output of said decoder, and pre-programmed with a table associating highway numbers and highway access point numbers with specific respective geographic regions;
means (34) for filtering a stream of information from said decoder (10) and said pre-programmed memory device (12); and
means (14) for indicating to a user, by at least one of visual output and audio output, information selected by said filtering means (34);
further comprising, in accordance with the invention,
means (52), coupled to a control input of said tuning means, for directing a scan of a predetermined frequency band;
a rewritable scan memory (54), coupled to an output of said tuning means, storing frequencies of stations detected during said scan;
a further memory (84) which includes a list of geographic regions (85) and the frequencies (86) of stations receivable in each region;
a comparison device (82), coupled to respective outputs of said scan memory (54) and of said further memory (84), which compares the frequencies received during said scan with the frequencies (86) stored in said further memory, to find an at least partial match between the received and the stored frequencies, thereby automatically recognizing in which geographic region said scan was performed, and outputs, to said filtering means (34), a number identifying said recognized region;
said filtering means (34) subsequently limiting output of information via said indicating means (14), to traffic news relevant to said recognized region.
2. The Radio Data System (RDS) receiver of claim 1,
wherein said decoder (10) also decodes program identification codes transmitted as part of said digital signal;
said further memory (84) contains, for each of said receivable stations data on both its frequency and its program identification code; and
said comparison device, while making said at least partial match, compares the frequencies and program identification codes of received stations to the frequencies and program identification codes stored in said further memory (84).
3. The Radio Data System (RDS) receiver of claim 2, further comprising
a supplementary memory (30), associating region (e) and program identification codes (f),
means in said comparison device (82) for simultaneously specifying a desired region and a desired program identification code, from among those stored in said supplementary memory (3), and
logic means (50), having inputs connected to respective outputs of said supplementary memory (30) and of said decoder (10), and an output coupled to a control input of said scan directing means (52),
whereby said logic means (50) limits said scan directing means (52) to selection of stations matching both said desired region and said desired program identification code.
The invention relates to a radio receiver, in particular for vehicles, having a decoder for decoding digitally encoded traffic reports received.
German Patent Disclosure Document DE-OS 35 36 820 Bragas and Busch/BOS a traffic broadcast decoder that is arranged to process digital signals. These digital signals are for instance superimposed on an auxiliary carrier that is broadcast by radio stations, or transmitters, together with the FM radio program. As a result, the information present in these digital signals can be transmitted unimpeded, parallel with the actual radio program. This applies particularly to traffic news, which can be decoded by demodulation of the aforementioned auxiliary carrier. Besides signal transmission by means of auxiliary carriers, however, it is also possible for these digital signals to be supplied to a digital radio transmitter, for instance interlaced with the digital radio information.
If the traffic news transmitted as digital signals is formatted on the same principle as traffic news broadcast in the clear, then instead of the complete information, it is also possible to transmit memory addresses, which invoke standardized texts stored in memories in the receivers. This makes a substantially smaller data capacity adequate for transmission. As a consequence, substantially more traffic news on individual events can be provided than was the case previously.
While keeping the same selection criteria as before for the traffic news, which depends essentially on the number of drivers affected, traffic news relating to a larger, supraregional geographical area, e.g. the region of the Federal Republic of Germany and possibly the neighboring countries, could also be transmitted over all the chains of FM stations. Another possibility is to restrict the region into which the traffic news relates to approximately the region supplied by the station or chain of stations, but in return to expand the selection of traffic news to events that affect even only a few drivers.
Whatever selection is made for the traffic news transmitted, the great number of reports would be excessively demanding of the driver's attention if he received them all in a visual or acoustic form.
It has already been proposed that a selection from among the traffic news be made to decide what will be displayed or reproduced. This can be done for instance in terms of the intended trip route, which the driver has input via an input device in the form of data on the section of highway to be traveled. It is then assured that only the traffic news that applies to that trip route will appear on the output device.
Still, making a limitation to the trip route selected may be too narrow, if the driver should become interested in the traffic situation elsewhere or in relatively persistent bottlenecks in other places, because he might wish to drive to those places soon.
In German Patent Application P 39 14 104.7 and corresponding PCT/DE 90/00250, the publishing dates which do not precede the international filing date of the present application, it has already been proposed that a selector be provided in the radio receiver, by means of which the radio receiver user can individually specify a region for which he wishes to have information on the traffic situation. Based on this specification, a station is then sought that essentially transmits information on this region. It is also possible as a result to incorporate filters that filter out traffic news beyond the local region that is for instance also broadcast by the same station, so that only the information that actually refers to the selected region is output.
Manually inputting a certain region makes input means such as keyboards a prerequisite, and it is also somewhat inconvenient for the user, because if he wishes to obtain the regional traffic news he has to input the applicable region first. Often, therefore, he does not bother, and so the danger still exists that the radio user will either be overwhelmed by unnecessary information or, having tuned to a station from a different region, will either not receive the desired traffic news, or will not receive all of it.
The radio receiver according to the invention has the advantage over the prior art that it is automatically capable of determining the region in which the radio receiver is presently being operated. This makes it possible to select the traffic information transmitted in accordance with that region so that only traffic news applying to that region to be output. With only slightly increased effort, namely the evaluation of the program identification code, it is possible to increase the reliability with which the region is determined. Because of this provision, reliable region determination is attainable even if the same station distribution might coincidentally prevail at more than one location. Because of the program identification (PI) code, a reliable association of the regions, even for relatively small regions, is still possible.
Exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawing and described in further detail in the ensuing description.
FIG. 1 shows a radio receiver according to the invention;
FIG. 2, in an excerpt, shows an important detail of the radio receiver according to the invention; and
FIG. 3 shows a further, simpler possibility for embodiment of the radio receiver according to the invention.
FIG. 1 shows a vehicle receiver that has a first receiving part 46 with a loudspeaker 40, for receiving the usual program, and includes a further receiving part 38, with a decoder 10 connected to the output side of the receiver part 38, for decoding digitally encoded traffic news and program identification codes received.
The decoder 10 is connected to address inputs of a memory device 12. The memory device 12 includes memory fields 16 with memory locations 18, 20 and 22, which car be selected via addresses. Connected to the memory device 12 is a logical linking element 34, which via a demultiplexer 36 leads to a visual output device 14. An event memory 42 is also provided, the address inputs of which are also triggered by the decoder 10, and which leads via a further logical linking element 44 to a further field of the visual output device 14. A further memory device 26 is also provided, which includes memory fields 28 for region identifiers e and program identification codes f. One output 30 of the memory device 26, like the output 32 of the aforementioned memory device 12, is connected to the logical linking element 34.
The circuit arrangement also has a memory 54, in which all the stations that can be received on one scan through the stations by the receiver 38 are stored. A selection circuit 56 is also provided, in which the stations that are received best are stored. Finally, with the selection circuit 56, the memory 54 is connected to a station scanner 52, by means of which it is possible on the one hand to have the receiver 38 scan in order to find which stations can be received, and on the other hand the station that can be received best can be set as desired. A linking element 50 is also provided, to which on the one hand the data of the memory 26 on the other program identification codes from the decoder 10 can be supplied. The output of the linking element 50 leads to an alternative input of the station scanner 52.
In the memory 84, the frequencies that can be received or the program identification codes are stored, subdivided by region. In a comparator 82, they are compared with the stations stored in the memory 54. The outcome of the comparison is supplied to the memory 26.
In the memory device 12, memory fields 16 are addressed via addresses d, which are accessed by means of data of the decoder 10. The memory fields 16 are subdivided into memory locations 18 for place names a, memory locations 20 for other characteristics b specific to highway segments, such as Autobahns or Federal highways with exit numbers, and memory locations 22 with region identifiers c. In the present case, only one region identifier c is assigned to each place name a. In the case of redundancies, however, it is also possible to use a plurality of region identifiers c. Moreover, the region identifiers c can have a hierarchical structure, so that once again a coarse or fine subdivision can successfully be made. For instance, it is possible to subdivide the regions 2 into subregions 21, 22, etc., and the region 21 into subregions 211, 212, etc., so that fine graduations, especially for large cities, are then also possible.
The memory device 26 also includes addressable memory fields 28. Here, region identifiers e, of the kind that are also present as region identifiers c in the memory locations 22 of the memory device 12, are stored in the memory fields 28. The memory fields 28 also contain program identification codes f for those stations or chains of stations that are responsible for traffic news for the applicable regions having the region identifiers e. One or more program identification codes f can be assigned to each region identifier e.
If the receiver is intended to receive traffic news transmitted by the RDS system over the traffic message channel, then the program identification code matches the PI code in accordance with the EBU specifications, of the kind in block 1 in every RDS (Radio Data System) group. The program identification code then includes four characters. The first character identifies the country, and for the Federal Republic of Germany and Libya, for instance, it is the letter D. The second character represents a zone identifier, which in the Federal Republic of Germany, for instance, matches the traffic zones A-F of the presently known traffic radio system. The third and fourth characters, finally, stand for a station or chain of stations of a radio network. For example, the PI code for NDR2 [Norddeutsche Rundfunk 2=North German Radio Program 2] is D2C2.
Details of the automatic region identification will now be explained in further detail, referring to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 again shows the further memory 84, with a memory part 85 in which the regions are listed, opposite which is a corresponding table 86 in which the stations that can be received in the region are listed; both the PI codes and the frequencies that can be received under that PI code are listed. The table shown is purely by way of example; in particular, the list of stations can be supplemented with an arbitrary number of PI codes or frequencies. The table 86 is now compared in the comparator 82 with the table that is stored in the memory 54 of the radio receiver during one station scan. If the comparator finds a match between the table in memory 54 and one of the tables in memory 86, then the comparator 82 furnishes an output signal, so that via the switch 83 the region, in which a match is found, between the stations and program identification codes memorized and the stations and program identification codes received, is gated through to the memory 26. The match need not be absolute; it suffices if at least a predominant match between the received stations and program identification codes and the table exists, so that the automatic region selection still continues to function even if a station has for instance dropped out or if a station was not picked up because of obstructions or other poor reception conditions, or if a station that usually cannot be received in this region was received because of reflections or over-the-horizon reception. This region, for instance region 2, is then read out of the memory 26 and now affects the logical linking element 34 in such a way that only the traffic news items that pertain to region 2, for instance the 1 in the memory 12, are admitted. Thus, element 34 is essentially a filtering means.
Finally, it is also possible to deliver the output 30 of the memory 26 to one input of the comparison circuit 50, while the other input of the comparison circuit 50 communicates with the output of the decoder 10, and to invoke the program identification code there. This provision makes it possible to affect the station scan 52 so that it is assured that in all cases, a station that is broadcasting traffic news for the applicable region will be received. This is especially necessary for instance if city information is to be received from a local station that may not be the most powerful station, since powerful stations are typically better suited for supraregional handling of traffic information.
FIG. 3 shows the embodiment of an especially simple receiver according to the invention. Once again, the memory 84 can be seen, in which the regions are stored in the memory part 85, while the memory part 86 contains station tables assigned to these regions, but only the frequencies and not the program identification codes are stored there. Similarly, in the memory 54 that contains the receivable frequencies, only the frequency of the received stations is stored, but not the program identification code. In the comparator 82, a comparison of the received frequencies with the stored frequencies in accordance with table 86 is performed, and the switch 83 is then closed if a predominant match is found between the stored and the received frequencies. The region in which the best match is attained is then supplied directly to the logical linking element 34, however, the other input of which is connected to the output 32 of the memory 12 of FIG. 1. The traffic news pertaining to that region is then passed on directly to the demultiplexer 36. With this embodiment of the invention, the evaluation of the program identification code is omitted. It is generally presumed that the most powerful station, stored in the evaluation circuit 56, also includes the traffic radio information for the region, so that the program identification codes stored in the memory 26 are not needed. It is also presumed that station lists that differ markedly from one another are assigned to different regions, so that for the purposes of more detailed identification of the station lists, the program identification code can be dispensed with. It is readily apparent that in an embodiment in accordance with FIG. 3, the memory 26 and the comparator 50 are no longer needed, so that the memory capacity required in the radio receiver, and the evaluation, can be simplified considerably.
Based on the frequencies received, it is now possible to ascertain the region in which the radio receiver is located, and with the linking circuit 34 it is now possible to enable only the traffic news associated with a certain region. Depending on the extent of the memory 84 and on the layout of the table, it is possible to define the regions as virtually arbitrarily small. For instance, with simpler equipment it is conceivable to subdivide the regions rather coarsely, while equipment with a relatively wide memory range can have correspondingly many subregions.

GALWAY, IRELAND – The intense debate over immigration reform in the U.S. has riveted many in this bucolic area in the west of Ireland. That's because, in addition to millions of Hispanic aliens, a significant number of Irish would benefit from immigration clarity. Just ask anyone in the Woodside section of Queens, NY.
The census estimates that there are nearly 35 million Americans of Irish descent currently living in America, and many of them had ancestors who fled to the United States to literally save their lives. The vicious Irish famine reached its height in 1847 as hundreds of thousands of starving people boarded so called "coffin ships." Many died on those ships – victims of disease on the long voyage.
In Ireland, more than a million people died from hunger and disease during the famine years. The British controlled the country and, incredibly, exported grain to London even as Irish children were dying in the streets. British soldiers had to guard the grain stores, killing the Irish who stormed the storage facilities. There are still deep wounds in this country of less than 5 million. More than a few Irish noticed a visiting American news commentator and asked about the proposed immigration reform. All favored it because of the sensitivity to the suffering of poor people.
The U.S. is a far different place than it was in the mid-19th century, when our vast land needed folks to settle and expand into the west. Then, there was no such thing as an "illegal alien." If you physically made it here you were an American. Simply showing up entitled you to pursue the dream of prosperity.
But today, our country is fragile. The economy is stagnant and social problems dominate the landscape. Back when my people arrived from Galway in the 1840s, there was little social welfare or entitlements. You either earned your way or you wound up in the street. America did not support immigrants; it simply gave them a chance.
What has not changed is the humanity of most Americans. People without an agenda realize that most illegal aliens are here to feed their families – not cause trouble. But we also realize that our federal government has allowed and sometimes encouraged immigration chaos that has damaged the fabric of the nation. You simply cannot allow more than 10 million people to occupy your territory without any accountability. That's what has happened. I told the good people in Ireland who approached me that I hoped a fair, but tough, immigration bill would pass this year. One that will put an end to the porous southern border and make undocumented aliens earn their citizenship over an extended period of time.
The most powerful nation on Earth should be able to pass an immigration law that combines compassion with responsibility and does not injure Americans who are taxed up to here. We should be able to do that. It will be shameful if we don't.

1995 Mercedes-Benz C280 Q&A
1995 Mercedes-Benz C280 Question: How much to repair a head gasket?
I have been told my oil is leaking into my spark plugs and that my head gasket needs to be replaced - inej1969
Answer 1
This is not a cheapie fix. Likely you also recently had the water pump fail (This likely cost around $1,000 to fix). Your head is now warped from overheating. This will likely cost around $1,000 or so to get it right. Finding someone to do the work is another issue. Your car is worth about $1,000 as far as trade in value. MIght be your best option. - Visitor

Metropolitan Museum of Art Exhibits Master European Drafstmen in DÜRER AND BEYOND, 4/3-9/3
An exhibition of works by Dürer and other masters to show at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art, located at 1000 Fifth Avenue, New York City, highlighting achievements in Central European Draftsmanship from 1400 to 1700.
Exhibition Dates are April 3–September 3, 2012, located in the galleries for Drawings, Prints, and Photographs on the 2nd floor.
Central European Drawings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1400-1700, presents a selection of 100 works from the Museum's outstanding holdings of German, Swiss, Austrian, and early Bohemian drawings. Works by later 16th– and 17th–century artists are balanced by a group of drawings from the early 16th century, including an exceptional double-sided self-portrait by Albrecht Dürer. In addition to drawings by other major artists such as Martin Schongauer, Albrecht Altdorfer, Urs Graf, Hans Holbein the Elder, Joseph Heintz the Elder, Wenzel Hollar, and Joachim von Sandrart the Elder, the exhibition highlights works by lesser-known, but equally fascinating, draftsmen of the 15th to 17th century. The selection of drawings in the exhibition is enhanced by comparative material, including prints, illustrated books, paintings, glass roundels, and decorative objects also from the Museum's collection, as well as by loans from the Pierpont Morgan Library and private collections.
Albrecht Dürer's extraordinary standing as the dominant figure in German art should not lead to the conclusion that he was one of only a very small group of gifted artists. Dürer and Beyond brings together varied works of high quality by Dürer and his predecessors, contemporaries, and successors in order to present a more balanced overview of drawings made by artists active before 1700 in the Holy Roman Empire—the loosely knit state corresponding roughly with present-day Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and the Czech Republic.
Dürer and Beyond is the first exhibition to offer an extensive overview of the Metropolitan Museum's holdings of Central European drawings, most of which were acquired over the past two decades. Presented chronologically and grouped by city, school, and theme, the selection begins with two beautiful examples of Bohemian draftsmanship, followed by the earlier, more well-known, artists of the late 15th and early 16th centuries, with exceptional examples by Schongauer, Dürer, and Hans Baldung, which entered the Museum as part of the Robert Lehman Collection in 1975. These are supplemented by works by later 16th– and 17th–century artists, like Jost Amman and Friedrich Sustris, whose names may not be as well known to the American public but whose works are equally compelling in terms of style and subject matter.

And they're off! The runners and riders have bolted from their stables and the London mayoral race is now officially underway. Braced to face scabrous attack of their respective transport and environmental policies, and the bleatings of Madonna, betting on the field continues to swing away from Ken to Boris, with the Lib Dems' Brian Paddick barely out the paddock.
No mere Boris v Ken affair, the full line-up boasts 10 candidates, all contending for victory in the May 1st election. Likely also-ran's include English Democrats', Fathers4Justice geez and GQ's 92nd Most-Powerful-Man-In-Britain, Matt O'Connor; Left-list candidate, Trotskyist and Convenor of the Stop the War Coalition, Lindsey German; and Christian Peoples Alliance and Christian Party (did they mentioned they're Christians?) representative, ex-Labour man and mosque nimbyist, Alan Craig.
How come there are ten? Why didn't you enter your mates? Well, in addition to securing 330 signatures – a stretch of anyone's Facebook – candidates needed to stump up a £10,000 deposit, repayable on a return of 5% of the vote.
The candidates, in alphabetical order:
Richard Barnbrook – British National Party
Gerard Batten – UK Independence Party
Sian Berry – Green Party
Alan Craig – Christian Peoples Alliance and Christian Party
Lindsey German – Left List
Boris Johnson – Conservative Party
Ken Livingstone – Labour Party
Winston McKenzie – Independent
Matt O'Connor – English Democrats
Brian Paddick – Liberal Democrats

@Twilightloverforevs I've thought about it! :) originally I had three separate ideas for a Jacob love story and I had a vote of whether the readers wanted a "surprise" mythical creature/werewolf love story, a vampire/werewolf love story, or a werewolf/werewolf love story. In all honesty I had planned for the werewolf/werewolf story to be my first story ever I evn had lots of it hand written and ideas set aside and drawings a done up but the secret one won the poll x) lol n it's been received by the readers pretty well, so I'm not sure if I want to try out the werewolf love story with Jacob....
Hey I know you said it would take a while for you to update incompatible love and I don't mind I was just wondering if you would be writing any more Jacob black love stories while your trying to think of things to do with that book xx _twilightloverforevs_

I use citadel as an easy to install and use mail server solution. Being in a hurry installing an configuring mail services for customers that want to do basic administration themselves after setup I found citadel is a great choice as it provides a clean and easy installation (build and config scripts, debian packages) and both a shell- and a web-bases administration UI.

In the process of developing my own library, I've been reading various Ruby libraries on Github for understanding common idioms. One library I've been referencing (found here), leverages what I'd call an "unattached send method". Here's the code:
module AngellistApi
class API
attr_accessor *Configuration::VALID_OPTIONS_KEYS
# Creates a new API
def initialize(options={})
options = AngellistApi.options.merge(options)
Configuration::VALID_OPTIONS_KEYS.each do |key|
send("#{key}=", options[key])
All documentation I can find online regarding the send method in Ruby, describes it as a way of calling a method of an object via a string or symbol. However all examples have the send method attache to the object, e.g.:
object.send(:method_name, argument1)
What happens when it isn't attached to an object? In this case is it calling the methods for the class that it's called within? Can someone explain this code for me? :)

CLE Questions? Check the FAQ
As we approach the start of a new academic year at UCSF, more people are using the Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE) to facilitate learning inside AND outside of the classroom. To help new faculty and staff, and as a refresher for returning CLE users, we have created a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page on the Learning Tech Support Center. Click the image below or the following link to access the UCSF Learning Technologies FAQ.
These bite-sized pieces of instruction are quick reminders for completing common tasks in the CLE. We will be adding more content to this page, and please leave a comment below if there is a specific question that you feel should be included in the FAQ in the meantime.
Do you need assistance working on a large CLE project such as organizing a course question bank or managing your gradebook? Join the Learning Technologies Group at an upcoming Tech Clinic – held on the 2nd and 4th Friday of every month at the UCSF Library.

Got Blocks? The CLE Does!
Faculty and course staff spend a lot time developing activities and resources in the UCSF CLE. Blocks, or the content located on the right and/or left side of a CLE course page, often get little attention outside of the Navigation and Administration blocks. Brace yourself, because in this post we will review the types of blocks available in CLE courses and will also showcase a particularly helpful one; the Remote News Feed block.
We wrote about Block Management last year, but did you know there are many different types of blocks that can be added to a CLE course (34 to be specific)? Below is a complete list of available blocks. Click to learn more about each:

This post showcases the Remote News Feed block and provides instructions for setting up an RSS feed such as Class Capture, inside of a CLE course. Class Capture is the popular service supported by Educational Technology Services (ETS) that allows UCSF faculty to record classroom presentations, and then share online them with students.
Faculty can setup the Remote News Feed block one time at the start of class, and newly recorded lectures will automatically populate in the block. Sort of like "set it and forget it" – until next semester at least!
Do you have a class starting in the summer or fall that will use the Class Capture service? If so, visit the UCSF Learning Tech Knowledge Base or just click the image below for step-by-step instructions on configuring the Remote News Feed block to display Class Capture recordings in a CLE course.
We will continue to showcase other blocks and features in the CLE in upcoming Convergence blog posts. If you are using blocks in an innovative or creative way in your CLE course, we would love to know! Please share with us by posting a comment below, attending a UCSF Tech Clinic, or contacting the Learning Technologies Group directly.
UCSF CLE Support at the Library
We are well into the Spring 2015 semester and want to remind everyone of the following UCSF Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE) and multimedia support resources available through the UCSF Library and Learning Technologies Group.1. Attend a CLE Basics Training at a Tech Clinic
Held bi-monthly at the UCSF Library, attend a Tech Clinic to work with Learning Technologies staff on CLE and multimedia projects. The 90-minute CLE Basics in-peson training is held at the start of every Tech Clinic and is a great training opportunity for new faculty and staff.2. Search the CLE Knowledge Base
Need a quick answer to your CLE or multimedia question? It is most likely in the Learning Tech Knowledge Base.3. Follow the Convergence Blog
If you are reading this post, you probably already know about the Convergence blog. Subscribe to the blog today to receive important announcements, news, and CLE tips and tricks from the Learning Technologies Group!4. Moodle Training
Moodle, the learning platform that powers the UCSF CLE, provides useful documentation and guides for Moodle users as well training opportunities through MOOCs (massively open online courses). The four-week MOOC is also a great opportunity to connect with the larger Moodle community beyond UCSF.5. Contact Learning Technologies Group

Messaging with Quickmail
The CLE offers a number of methods for communication within a course, including forums, live chat, and an internal messaging system. If you want to contact course participants fast, however, each of these methods can fall short. Unless course editors and participants are logged in at the same time, or regularly viewing their courses, it is easy to miss updates because email notifications can be delayed anywhere from 15 to 60 minutes, or longer if a user has changed their notification preferences.
Enter: The Quickmail block! With Quickmail, you can push an email from within your CLE course to any number of course participants or groups, directly and immediately to their UCSF email inbox.
The Quickmail feature is installed and ready to use now. Here's how it works:
- A course editor adds the block to a course.
- Course editors use the block to compose and send a new message.
- Recipients of the message will receive a new email message (addressed from the sender, not from a do-not-reply address!) in their UCSF email inbox, within a few minutes.
Using the Quickmail block is very easy, and powerful, because it allows you send messages to groups you have already created in the course, or to all users with a particular role (like all instructors or all students).
By default, only course editors can add and use the Quickmail block. With a few adjustments to the block's settings, though, you can provide the same functionality to students.
Please note that an instructor can see a history of all messages that were sent with the Quickmail block. Also, all future communication (replies) happen outside of the CLE, and via standard email. So if you want the conversation to be visible to a wider audience, you will need to use a forum.
For a full description of the Quickmail block and step by step instructions, please refer to the Quickmail document in our Support Center.
Good luck, and don't forget to leave a comment below to let us know what you think of the new Quickmail block!
Moodle MOOC Videos
Do you know that Moodle, the system that powers the UCSF CLE is used by other universities and training providers around the world?
For the second consecutive year, Moodle has offered a MOOC (massively open online course) for the millions of global Moodle users. Although the 2015 MOOC has come to an end, Moodle has made all of the instructional videos available on YouTube.
Click to view the 38 Moodle videos available on YouTube:
While the version of Moodle used in the MOOC videos may look a little different than the UCSF CLE, the underlying tasks and workflows are going to be very similar. Watch videos on topics ranging from editing course sections to managing the Moodle gradebook.
Please note the videos use Moodle 2.8, while the UCSF CLE currently uses Moodle 2.6. Some features and functionality shown in the videos may not be available in the CLE.
Have questions about the Moodle MOOC videos? Contact the Learning Technologies Group.

Dr. Timothy Gilfoyle Receives Award for Best Urban History Book of 2006
KENNETH JACKSON AWARD FOR BEST BOOK (NORTH AMERICAN) PUBLISHED IN 2006 awarded to Timothy Gilfoyle for his book, A Pickpocket's Tale: the Underworld of Nineteenth-Century New York (W.W. Norton, 2006).
Selected from more than thirty outstanding nominations, A Pickpocket's Tale combines evocative prose with meticulous research to tell the riveting story of a petty criminal named George Appo, and through his story, to convey a revealing history of the underside of the nation's largest city. Well known in his time, Appo was lost to history until Gilfoyle resurrected him. Gilfoyle's genius, however, lies in his decision to build the narrative around Appo's journey. Following Appo through his triumphs and travails allows Gilfoyle to introduce the readers to the Five Points and Chinatown neighborhoods where the pickpocket grew up with other lost boys, learning the code of conmen and petty thieves who relied on guile and intelligence to craft their crimes. Gilfoyle takes us inside prisoner ships, penitentiaries, and asylums to unmask the brutality of the nineteenth-century penal system. In discussing, the violence that Appo encountered and survived, including shootings and stabbings, Gilfoyle demonstrates how a rapidly growing New York City became an increasingly more diverse, more chaotic, and less egalitarian place.
A masterful work of urban scholarship, A Pickpocket's Tale reminds us that good history explains the past, but great history gives the past meaning and illuminates the human condition.
