The popularity of the recent film, "The Patriot," has sparked widespread debate over the real people, ideas and events of America's revolutionary founding. Mindful of the revolution's principles, the first generation of Americans reinvented themselves and their society. But how exactly did their values transform politics, economics, and culture in the new republic and for our own age?
The special program, "The American Revolution and the Legacy of Liberty" -- to be videotaped by C-SPAN for future broadcast -- will feature UCLA historian JOYCE APPLEBY (former president of both the American Historical Association and Organization of American Historians), author of the new book, INHERITING THE REVOLUTION: The First Generation of Americans, and historian HANS EICHOLZ, Senior Fellow, Liberty Fund, and author of the new book, HARMONIZING SENTIMENTS: The Declaration of Independence and the Jeffersonian Idea of Self-Government. The program will also feature an "In Memoriam" tribute to the late National Book Award-winning historian, HENRY MAYER.
Reception and seminar: 6:30-8:30 p.m., September 7, 2000.
$30.00 per person, includes 1 copy of either of the books, Inheriting the Revolution or A Son of Thunder or Harmonizing Sentiments (price includes California sales tax). Copies can be reserved for pick-up at the door or are available for shipping (please add $3/book shipping/handling).

Feeling impatient waiting for Sunday night's "Mad Men" Season 7 midseason finale? Better get used to the feeling. After tonight's episode, we'll have to wait until spring of 2015 to see the final seven episodes of this last "Mad Men" season.
So here are a couple of ways to pass the time before tonight's episode. You can read my thoughts about why this is a frustratingly long pause.
You can watch this typically not-very-revealing teaser clip:
Or you can peruse the photos in the gallery above, courtesy of the AMC press site. The "Mad Men" characters -- Don (Jon Hamm), Peggy (Elisabeth Moss), Pete (Vincent Kartheiser), Joan (Christina Hendricks), Roger (John Slattery), Megan (Jessica Pare) , Sally (Kieran Shipka) and Betty (January Jones) -- appear in mock advertisements, done in vintage 1960s style.
And don't forget, the "Mad Men" midseason finale airs at 10 p.m. Sunday May 25 on AMC (or at 7 p.m. if you get the earlier feed, via satellite or HD.)

Confronting a Colonial Legacy: Asserting Puerto Rican Identity by Legally Renouncing U.S. Citizenship
Jacqueline N. Font-Guzmán
Creighton University School of Law, The Werner Institute
June 1, 2013
Centro Journal, Spring 2013, Vol. XXV, No. 1
In this essay I discuss the beliefs and experiences of Puerto Ricans who chose to manage their own belonging and express their cultural national identity by legally renouncing what they consider to be an imposed U.S. citizenship. Acknowledging that the legal system is a key player in shaping individuals' social construction of their reality, I share narratives as to how some Puerto Ricans exercise the negation of U.S. citizenship to assert their cultural national identity when confronted with oppressive legal structures and unequal socio-political arrangements. My discussion illustrates how citizenship is much more than a legal construct; it is also a subjective experience that leads to agency.

I'm a Bachelor purist.
I get the attraction of trying to find out everything that happens before it happens. It's natural.
And the Twitterfication of our culture has spawned a '1ST' atmosphere where your social currency is partially dependent on how soon you can break a story.
If you're not reporting the news yourself, you're at least trying to tell your friends before they tell you. I'm sure that everything I would want to know about this season of The Bachelor could be found somewhere online if I wanted to find it.
I don't, though. I let love blossom on schedule.
The purity thing, though, leads to some major bombs getting dropped when you least expect it. For instance, perusing Business Insider, it turns out that Snapchat's CEO is dating… Lucy the hippy. Um, what?
Worse, they casually drop in the fact that her BFF is… Kate Upton?
Where is safe harbor, friends? I can't even get some perspective on Google's 3.2B valuation of Nest without Bachelor Spoilers? Being pure is hard these days. But we will try. WE WILL TRY.
Let's Date…
7:04 – Clare gets the first date of the season. She's blindfolded on the car ride to a 'winter wonderland'. And she knows the cameras are on and her eyes are hidden. So she turns to mouth acting. Punctuated by several lip bites. Exquisite execution.
7:07 – PERFECT SNAPCHAT! It's so cute seeing unknown foreshadowing. Lucy's probably cooing in Evan Spiegel's mansion right now saying the same thing. Oh, wait…
(Bonus link for the Howard Stern fans reading: here)
7:17 – Bad kiss. The multiple pecks before a pull away. Poor Clare. Thought she had a shot. I've seen more passion out of the buffet wipers at Golden Corral. Rose regret.
7:18 – Hugo! Welcome back to ABC my friend, had no idea you could sing. Now about that Lost ending…
7:27 – Awwww Yisssss. Poppin' Molly. Where you at Cyrus. MDNmuthafukinA. —– record screech —– Salt Lake City? Neon Color Run? False alarm. Cancel that Gatorade and binky order.
7:33 – Every single person in Utah is at this taping.
7:40 – They keep listing Cassandra's occupation as 'Former NBA Dancer' and her age at 21. Just how old are NBA dancers? Is St. Louis sans NBA action because we are holding the high ground on ogling of our youth? Can Mayor Slay campaign on this?
7:53 – "If just one of these dogs is adopted… its worth it" —— if you get NEKED! Thank you Bachelor. I think you just gave all of America's men hope that they to can go back out there and find the woman of their dreams. And you know, save some dogs.
8:02 – Cassandra also has a SON? Every year this woman has lived is like 5 years in regular people time.
8:05 – You ready for the best advice of all time? Seriously, you ready? Sit down and let Victoria take it away…
8:10 – Victoria is a party.
8:15 – Victoria is making a run at the crown for 'Drunkest Contestant Ever. Let's let you decide who was worse. What you just saw with Victoria or Tim from Bachelorette: Ashley. (Refresher here)
I think I got to give the slight nod to Victoria. Mainly because she called it the 'Hymen Maneuver'. You underrated that, didn't you?
8:28 – Victoria has the distinct waft of a girl that doesn't quite realize what is going to be beamed out to America tonight. "Maybe I could have been a little more adult about it"? On the bright side, she doesn't seem to be all that hungover.
And a classy dumping, Juan Pablo. Guy is winning us all over.
8:37 – Amy.
8:42 – Now Cassandra is breaking down? This cast is a human Jenga game. At this pace, Kat is going to get an engagement ring about 1/2 through week 4. This isn't 'The Therapist'. (Rim Shot)
CUT – Victoria, Amy, Chantel
NEXT WEEK – "Consummation Station", bungee jumping, regular jumping, kissing 21 year olds, soccer stadiums, woman or little girl, kissing other girls, being inconsiderate.

leading through cooperation: the center for weight and health
In its first five years, CNRs Center for Weight and Health has emerged as a national leader in the prevention of obesity in children and adultsprecisely because it draws on Cooperative Extensions unique ability to foster community empowerment.
We view ourselves as a community center without wallsanyone with an interest in addressing issues related to body weight can work with the Center on relevant projects, regardless of their department, campus, institution, or county, said co-director Sharon Fleming, a professor in the Department of Nutritional Science and Toxicology. They may be academics at a university or government institution, administrators within institutes or programs, or residents who deliver programs at the local level.
We encourage communities to learn about the problems they are facing, and let them decide how they want to respond, added Cooperative Extension Nutrition Education Specialist Joanne Ikeda, co-director of the Center. Weve found that if a group decides what changes to make, these changes will be permanent.
One of the ways that the Center for Weight and Health accomplishes this is through an educational kit that guides local participants through a planning process, using five initial meetings. The kit, which is now used nationally, contains agendas, videotapes, activities, and a decision-making process. By the end of the five sessions, the group has evolved into a coalition that has determined the most effective and immediate ways to address childhood obesity in their communities.
Some communities work with the school districts to replace the contents of school vending machines; others build sidewalks and install playground equipment in parks to encourage more exercise. Currently we have 22 coalitions in California, and Michigan just picked up our program, adapting it to their own needs, Ikeda explained.
The success of the Center for Weight and Health is closely tied to its Extension roots. Cooperative Extension offers a statewide communication network, said CE Nutritional Specialist Patricia Crawford. This system allows us to take advantage of infrastructure, expertise, and opportunities at all levelsfederal, state, and local.
One example is a new nutrition workgroup, chaired by Crawford in cooperation with the CE advisors throughout the state, which explores the relationship between food shortage and obesity. Its counterintuitive to think that people who have too little food are the heaviest, but we have found that lack of income often leads to erratic food consumption, explained Crawford.
We just got an Economic Research Service (ERS) grant to do ground-breaking research on the differences between low-income women who didnt have enough food when they were growing up and those who did, and how they parent their children with regard to food. It could change how we educate parents about nutrition, she said.
The advisors are excited about this research because it has enormous potential import to the communities they serve, said Crawford. People throughout the state are collecting data. Without this kind of active partnership, projects such as these simply could not be done."

Russia-South Korea: Always Askew?
By Aidan Foster-Carter
Is there a permanent jinx on Russia-South Korea relations? Time and again, nothing quite seems to go right between these near neighbors and – in recent years – would-be friends.
You'd think a visit to Seoul by Vladimir Putin was a big deal – but Russia's President begs to differ. Late from the off, he got even later by great ideas like halting his motorcade to press the flesh with Korean devotees of a Russian martial art called (no, really) Sambo.
But sir, your host Madame President is waiting! We shouldn't be surprised. Putin has kept most everyone waiting: Obama, Merkel, Queen Elizabeth II. Even the Pope.
Manners apart, this isn't smart. As the first leader of a big power to visit South Korea under Park Geun-hye, Putin could have stolen a march on Obama and Xi. Don't even mention Abe.
But two days, little enough, suddenly shrank to one. Putin flew in at 3.30am, two hours late, from Vietnam: an old ally, also granted just a single day. Hardly worth the jetlag, you'd think.
Then that chaotic day in Seoul. Post-Sambo, the joint press conference with Park – live on TV, began 90 minutes late. A glitzy formal lunch turned into early dinner. So it went on. Then he was gone.
'Twas ever thus. The first leader from Moscow to visit South Korea didn't stop long, either. But at least Gorbachev stayed overnight: not in Seoul but on Jeju island, back in April 1991.
He also made history. This wasn't yet Russia, but still – just – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which momentously had recognized the Republic of Korea seven months earlier.
That revolutionary move shattered at a stroke the post-1945 order on the peninsula. The same USSR that had accepted US plans for a "temporary" partition – great idea, huh? – and then created North Korea, just as the US fashioned South Korea, in effect admitted its mistake.
The visit had a less uplifting side. A US headline at the time spelled it out: "Gorbachev Arrives In Korea Seeking Aid: Soviet Leader Says Help `Badly Needed`".
Seeking aid? He had it already. As a – what's the polite word? – sweetener for diplomatic recognition, South Korea had agreed to lend the USSR $3 billion: a staggering sum back then.
Did Seoul have that kind of money? Nope, they had to borrow it. Cheap at the price, perhaps, but embarrassing for Gorbachev to bang the begging bowl so blatantly. But how sweet to see your mighty Cold War superpower foe come fawning. Pretty humiliating for Moscow, mind.
The honeymoon was brief. The USSR collapsed. Yeltsin's Russia was friendlier still – but defaulted on that massive debt, souring ties for years. Bits got repaid in military hardware, so Seoul received a few T-80 tanks: newer than any Moscow had ever supplied to Pyongyang. (How North Korea reacted to it all is a whole other story; no prizes for guessing.)
Korean companies who piled excitedly into this vast new market got their fingers burnt too. Like others, most found Russia stony ground. So when China too recognized South Korea soon after, in 1992, most took their business there instead – and have never looked back.
The numbers tell the story. Russia-South Korea trade of $25 billion last year is no small potatoes, but a mere tenth of South Korea's $256 billion commerce with China. The investment gap is wider still: a cumulative $56 billion from South Korean firms in China, versus a meager $1.9 billion in Russia. The latter may now edge up: in Seoul the two sides' sovereign wealth funds agreed to create a $500 million fund for more mutual investments.
But it was another investment that made headlines. An MOU on railway cooperation sounds dull, but not when the rails are in North Korea. Three Korean firms – Posco, Hyundai Merchant Marine and state-owned Korail – may acquire nearly half of Russia's 70% stake in RasonKonTrans: a $340 million project which, five years late, has just finished upgrading 54 km of track from the border at Khasan down to Rajin, east Asia's most northerly ice-free port.
This is odd on several levels. As already reported here, two of the three supposed investors claimed to know nothing, while Posco said there is no firm agreement. Anyway, since 2010 South Korea has forbidden its firms to invest in North Korea except at the Kaesong Industrial Complex, and the Unification Ministry confirmed that the ban remains in force. Asked to explain, Seoul spokesmen made squirming sounds that smacked of casuistry.
A further oddity is the gorilla not in the room. When Interfax reports that Russia and South Korea will promote "unimpeded use by [their] companies of railway infrastructure in the Khasan-Rajin section and the port of Rajin", this begs a big question. Moscow may foot the bill, but said infrastructure and port are in North Korea. Was the sovereign power consulted?
Déjà vu, anyone? Remember that pipeline talk? Five years ago Putin and Park's predecessors beamed in Moscow as their gas giants Kogas and Gazprom signed a $90 billion deal to pipe gas from Siberia to South Korea. But the state any pipeline would have to cross wasn't there.
In 2011 Dmitri Medvedev and Lee Myung-bak reaffirmed this, with bearhugs all round. Yet despite hints on the ailing Kim Jong Il's last big train trip to Ulan Ude that same year, North Korea has never explicitly committed to this project. Five years on, no pipeline. You'd think lessons would have been learned. Park Geun-hye advocates 'trustpolitik.' If she wants a piece of North Korean railroad, wouldn't a better way to build trust be to ask Kim Jong Un first?
Finally, a more tangible result of Putin's visit is visa-free travel. From Jan. 1 citizens of either state can spend 60 days in the other by just getting on a plane. Or indeed a boat; better not try the train just yet. This will be good for trade, of all stripes. Already you can run into some pretty colorful Russians in Seoul, and especially in Busan. Next year, expect plenty more.
Aidan Foster-Carter is honorary senior research fellow in Sociology and Modern Korea at Leeds University, UK, and a freelance writer, consultant and broadcaster on both Koreas.
Corrections & Amplifications
It is Kogas and Gazprom that signed a $90 billion deal to pipe gas from Siberia to South Korea. The previous version incorrectly stated that it is Kogas.

Using Marketing Automation to Catch The Ones That Get Away
Over the weekend I needed to hire a car so I did what most people do these days and searched Google, found a reputable car hire broker, entered my details and picked the best value car for my needs.
So far so easy.
I then entered all of my contact details and credit card payment information and pressed the big 'Process Order' button, for some reason nothing happened. I pressed it again and still nothing. How very annoying. I'm not sure if this was a problem with my Firefox browser or their website but either way it was a total pain. I closed down my laptop and cursing to myself vowed to do it the next day.
2 hours later I got an email from the company saying:
"We noticed that you did not complete the booking form on xxx for your car hire.
If you booked your car hire on xxx or with another car hire provider please ignore this email and accept our apologies.
Alternatively if you wish to complete the booking form and your car hire booking on 121Carhire.com please click the link below or copy and paste it into your web browser.
url to shoppingcart with my details already populated
If you are having any difficulty in booking your hire car, please email us and we will do all we can to resolve your problem."
Now this is very smart marketing. All too often when we think of marketing we think about how to generate leads, however all the way along the sales process we need to make it as easy as possible for people to buy for us. This includes thinking ahead and preparing for what if scenarios.
This car hire company had done this. They realise that if someone has gone to the trouble of entering all of their details then they must be pretty serious about doing business. They also realise that sometimes things go wrong and by preparing for this they stand a chance of closing more business than if they just ignored this scenario.
With systems like Office Autopilot and Infusionsoft this kind of follow up functionality comes as part of their shopping carts and makes it very easy to fix these kinds of holes in the sales process.
So are there any gaps in your sales process that customers might be slipping through? Perhaps they visited your website and now can't remember where it was or they tried to conduct a transaction but something happened in the middle of it. By thinking about and preparing for these kinds of scenarios you can close more sales without any extra marketing cost.
Use a Contact Database But Make It Easy To Use The Contact Data You Capture
Surprisingly in this day and age a large number of small businesses are still guilty of not even keeping a customer or prospect database, with many still relying on Microsoft Outlook to keep adhoc information. This might work initally for a very small business when the business owner is involved in the day to day operation and may often know all his customers by name. But very quickly if the business is to grow in any way at all it becomes vitally important to keep contact informtion and notes on each prospect and customer so you aren't left relying on your brain remembering every minute detail.
There are a number of software packages and online services that let you maintain a customer database, or for Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and using one of these will bring you on the right road to maximising your existing customer base and converting the most prospective customers.
However one failing with the majority of these systems is that even if you have captured the data there is still quite a lot of work involved in using that data to send communications to the contacts held in it.
A number of these systems can facilitate email, however when it comes to sending postcards or letters or SMS messages these systems cannot do it. Often they expect you to export the contacts for printing on address labels or some kind of mail merge function. The big failing with this as we see it is this is still very time consuming and not easily managed once your contact list grows to more than a few hundred.
This limitation is the key reason why businesses that have captured this information still do not often use it to the best of their ability.
Autopilot Marketing Systems can change this. At the core is a robust contact management database, but where it differs is with the integration to send letters, postcards, emails and SMS messages built into it. Sending a message, or a sequence of messages to customers and contacts is now much easier. All fulfillment is automated so you don't get bogged down in the menial tasks of printing out and sticking address labels.
The result is better communication with clients and contacts which can't help but strengthen relationships and increase sales.
How Autopilot Marketing Systems Can Save You Money on Admin Staff
One of the biggest obstacles to growing a small business is trying to do everything yourself. Often small business owners are caught in a chicken and egg situation where they know they can grow their business if they could free up their time but they cannot afford to take on an admin staff member to help them.
One area that can take a lot of your time is keeping in touch with your prospective and existing customers. If you have to send out marketing materials, follow up with people that enquired a few weeks ago that you haven't heard back from, or many other tasks then you can quickly become overwhelmed.
Sending out a letter to 100 people could easily take the best part of 5 hours by the time you have printed out the letter, addressed the envelopes, stuck on the stamps and dropped them off at the post office.
With Autopilot Marketing Systems all of this is automated for you. You simply decide which of your contacts are to get the letter, add them all to the sales letter campaign and press the save button. Suddenly that 5 hour task only took you 15 minutes. All of the letters are printed, addressed and stamped and sent out for you.
Even if you value your time at little over the minumum wage rate of €10 per hour you can see that in this simple example Autopilot Marketing Systems has saved you €50 for this one mailing alone. If you are sending out lots of mailings, postcards and emails in the course of a month this could easily run to €500 or more worth of your time.
Better still if your time is now freed up you can focus on other activities in your business, or even treat yourself and finish work early. With plans starting at under $30 per month Autopilot Marketing Systems could be the cheapest employee you ever hired – and it won't call in sick on a Monday morning!
How a Restaurant Could Use Autopilot Marketing Systems To Keep Diners Coming Back
If you own or manage a restaurant the chances are that the main focus of your marketing is to get new customers to come through the door. This is all well and good but often restaurant owners who focus purely on new customers are not maximising the income that they could be making if they shifted some of their marketing focus to following up with their existing customers.
These days it is not enough to simply give diners good food and service and hope that they will remember you and come back again. You need to be a bit more proactive. However if you are on a limited budget what can you do to get diners back through your doors that won't require too much hard work?
In the past setting up something like this was often time consuming or prone to human error. With Autopilot Marketing Systems we can make this much more straightforward. Our system is set up with mailing houses aready so all marketing materials are sent out automatically with no need for you or your staff to actually print, address or lick a stamp.
The first step is to devise a way to collect the contact details of your diners so that you can start to build a list of them. By using something simple like the above form and having your waiting staff give this to each customer with their bill you can start to capture your guests details.
Then it is simply a matter of having one of your staff enter the details into the contact manager of your Autopilot Marketing Systems (AMS) account. You can then set up a number of different campaigns that can run automatically for each contact added to the system.
For example you could send an email a couple of days after they dined with you thanking them for their business and making them an offer to come back, or maybe introducing another of your services, such as outside catering, that they may not have been aware you offered.
You can set up seasonal campaigns so for example you might set up a Valentines campaign that makes an offer of a free bottle of wine to all diners who book the Valentines meal special. This could be set up to send out an email, postcard or letter say 10 days before Valentines day.
Or if you have captured the birth dates of your diners you could then send them targetted offers in the run up to their birthday. AMS allows you to set up campaigns based on dates or based on a sequence of steps. All marketing pieces that are sent from the system can be completely personalised with the recipients details such as their name – this has been proven to increase response rate.
AMS can also be used to fill your restaurant at the last minute. If bookings are looking thin for a particular evening then you could send out a SMS message to all off the diners on your list offering them a great special if they come in that evening. Response rates for this kind of targetted SMS offer can sometimes be as high as 30% and the cost of this type of campaign is relatively low.
So I hope you can see how powerful AMS is for capturing your customers details and then allowing you to keep in touch with them at meaningful times of the year.
We can even help you in creating marketing pieces, or you can choose to outsource the data entry of the lists to us as well. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to use AMS to maximise the income from your restaurant.

Oklahoma City Barons ended Peoria's five game win streak on Thursday night,
7-2, at Carver Arena with four power-play goals and a perfect penalty kill. The
Rivermen trailed by one entering the final frame, but four unanswered goals pushed
the Barons to the lopsided win. The five-goal differential and the seven goals
against were both season highs against the Rivermen.
Barons scored on their first shot for the second straight game against the
Rivermen. Greg Stuart buried a deflection past Jake Allen at 7:39 for his
fourth of the year. Assists were given to Ben Ondrus and Richard Petiot. Graham
Mink had the answer for Peoria though slamming in a loose puck in the crease
for his 11th of the year at 12:02. T.J. Hensick's shot was stuck in the
pads of Martin Gerber until Nick Drazenovic pried it free.
Ian Cole and Dave Spina in the box, the Barons were able to pick up a pair of
power-play goals from Alexandre Giroux and Bryan Helmer. Giroux blasted his first
of two on the night on the two-man advantage, and Helmer capitalized on the
remaining power play 30 seconds later.
Della Rovere capped off the high-scoring first period with his sixth of the
year at 18:20. Anthony Nigro and Tyler Shattock worked the puck to the left
circle for Della Rovere who stopped and backhanded in his sixth of the
Barons erupted after a scoreless second with four unanswered goals in the third.
Giroux got his second of the game, also on the power play at 5:07. Moran picked
up his third assist of the night on the goal. Just a mere 1:40 seconds later at
the conclusion of another Rivermen penalty, Teemu Hartikainen netted his 12th
of the year from Petiot and Alex Plante.
15:15 Helmer converted on the power play for the second time en route to an
American Hockey League record. The goal gave Helmer 519 career points, which is
the most all-time amongst AHL defenseman. Philippe Cornet put in his second of
the year late in the third to wrap up the scoring.
Rivermen were outshot 33-27 in the contest and also went 0-for-5 on the power
play. It was the first since Oct. 22 that Peoria was unable to convert on the
power play given a minimum of five opportunities.
and Oklahoma City will play for the fourth time this week on Friday at 7:05
p.m. as the Rivermen continue their three-game homestand. On Saturday, witht the Texas Stars in town,
the first 2,250 fans will receive a Jim Thome Rivermen bobblehead courtesy of
CEFCU. For tickets call (309) 676-1040

Frequently Asked Questions: Treatment Options
1. Is Watchful Waiting a legitimate option to consider if I have prostate cancer?
A: Watchful waiting, also called expectant therapy or active surveillance, is a good option for some patients with prostate cancer. In general, those patients with a small amount of low grade cancer and a low PSA may benefit from watchful waiting. Learn More>> Click here for current clinical practice guidelines by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) for active surveillance in patients with low risk or very low risk early stage prostate cancer.
2. Is it possible to do surgery after radiation therapy if my cancer comes back?
A: Surgery after radiation therapy is possible, but it is not recommended and is associated with many complications. The most significant problem is fibrosis (scarring) in the pelvic region. It is very difficult for the surgeon because the tissue planes that allow you to separate one organ from another are obliterated. To successfully remove the prostate, the surgeon risks damage to the bladder or the rectum.
3. Who is a good candidate for surgery to treat prostate cancer?
A: Patients who are considered good candidates for surgical treatment of prostate cancer are those who are in relatively good overall health and have a life expectancy of at least 10-15 yrs. You should discuss with your doctor if you are a better candidate for surgery, radiation therapy or watchful waiting (active surveillance).
4. Who is a good candidate for radiation therapy (brachytherapy and/or external beam radiation) to treat prostate cancer?
A: Patients who are considered good candidates for radiation therapy treatment of prostate cancer are those who are in relatively good health and have a life expectancy of at least 10-15 yrs. You should discuss with your doctor if you are a better candidate for surgery, radiation therapy or watchful waiting (active surveillance).
5. I've heard of hormone therapy for prostate cancer but I'm not sure what that entails.
A: Many men refer to androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) as "hormone therapy" because the goal of this form of therapy is to significantly reduce or eliminate testosterone (a male sex hormone) from the body. Prostate cancer grows with the help of testosterone. If testosterone is blocked, prostate cancer cannot grow. ADT involves blocking the effect of testosterone on prostate cancer cells. ADT is usually used when surgery and radiation therapy have failed or if there is evidence that prostate cancer has metastasized or spread to other organs (bones, lymph nodes). Learn More>> Click here for more information on androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT).
6. I am not sure how a surgical robot is used in the operating room. Can you explain?
A: Robotic surgery is a form of minimally invasive surgery. The entire prostate (plus some surrounding tissue, called margins) is removed through tiny keyhole sized incisions with the help of precise robotic instruments controlled by a surgeon at a surgical console. The procedure lasts approx 1-2 hrs and 99% of patients are discharged home the day after surgery. There are many advantages to robotic surgery for prostate cancer over open radical prostatectomy. Learn More>> Click here for more information about robotic prostatectomy surgery. For more information on the da Vinci Surgical Robotic System, visit to Intuitive Surgical.
7. How can I be sure that the physician I choose is an expert in treating prostate cancer?
A: For any treatment you are considering, do your homework and ask plenty of questions. It is important that you feel completely comfortable that the physician and medical team that you have select has both the expertise and skill for the procedure you're contemplating, and a communication style that suits you. The fact is, you are going to have this person in your life for some time, so building a solid and trusting relationship is important.
The PCC Patient Navigator is here to help you secure a consultation appointment. To reach Renee Sevy-Hasterok, our Patient Navigator, please call (678) 843-5665 or firstname.lastname@example.com
8. I'd like to speak with someone who has had brachytherapy and/or external beam radiation therapy at Saint Joseph's. Do you have any patients I can call?
A: Yes! We have a list of patients who have offered to speak to anyone considering radiation therapy. Our Patient Navigator is happy to make that connection for you. One caveat to this type of "information gathering" is that everyone's experience is different and whether people recognize it or not, we all have biases as to the best treatment option based on the treatment decision that we ourselves made. We just want you to realize that someone else's experience may not represent your experience. We recognize, though, that it's reassuring to speak to someone else who has been through the same treatment with a physician that you are considering so we offer the names with this small but important caveat.
9. What training is required for surgeons who do the robotic prostatectomy?
A: It is very important that your surgeon has undergone formal fellowship training in robotic surgery and has a case experience of at least 250-300 robotic prostatectomy cases. Many surgeons performing the robotic prostatectomy today have not had this level of training or robotic surgical experience. In a recently published report on robotic prostatectomy in Reviews in Urology* , the outcome evidence was clear that "while a surgeon is learning a new technique, numerous patients may achieve outcomes inferior to what they might otherwise have obtained with an experienced surgeon."
Learn More>> Click here for more information about robotic prostatectomy at Saint Joseph's.
10. I would like to make a consultation appointment to discuss my treatment options. Who should I consult with and how do I secure that appointment?
A: To establish which treatment would be the best option for you based on your specific situation, we recommend that you consult with both a surgeon and radiation oncologist. These consultations will provide you with the information that you need to make a well informed and educated decision about your treatment plan. Our Patient Navigator is here to help you secure these consultation appointment(s). To reach Renee Sevy-Hasterok, LMSW, our patient navigator, please call (678) 843-5665 or firstname.lastname@example.com. You are not required to consult with both a surgeon and radiation oncologist, it is simply our recommendation. Check with your insurance carrier to verify coverage.

A trip to the spectacular interior of Cuba, in areas like the famous Valley of Viñales, we can enjoy another view of the island, away from the legendary Caribbean sailor landscape.
La Cueva del Indio, located in Pinar del Río, is one of the most interesting places for visitors to enjoy all the grandeur of Cuban nature and places.
About six kilometers from the town of Viñales, at Pinar del Rio, we will make a stunning journey on foot through the interior of one of the most beautiful caves of Cuban geology.
The walk through the small galleries of Cueva del Indio will takes us to the pier so we can see the rest of the cave aboard small boats through the underwater river that runs along the inside of the cave.
It's time to get astonished by the spectacle of lights and shadows and the strange shapes due to the rare formations of stalactites and stalagmites. Also, we will approach a collection of tools and paintings of the Pre-Columbian era.
The entire atmosphere inside Cueva del Indio offers us a fairly close idea of the reality of the cultures and traditions of the past of the Caribbean island.
The cave has not been fully investigated and the route for tourists is just over a kilometer. If we go deeper, the security conditions are no longer optimal.
However, nobody is left indifferent after this trip to the origins of Cuban geology and the approach to the original Cuban culture.

England's match with San Marino Friday quickly turned from a must-win World Cup qualifier into a farce, as the Three Lions romped to an 8-0 victory.
The win, coupled with Poland's loss to Ukraine, provided England with a cushion in Group H's second position, six points clear of Ukraine in third.
Meanwhile, Montenegro's victory over Moldova means that the English are still two points behind the relatively new national team with an important match in Podgorica coming up Tuesday.
The quality of San Marino's squad can obviously be called into question after such a drubbing, making it easy to write off England's big win as a product of their opposition.
Hence, it is quite difficult to gauge the Three Lions performance and know what to think about the squad.
So what can one take away from England's 8-0 victory in Serravalle?
Here are six lessons from Friday's big win.

Shares of Universal Display (NASDAQ: OLED ) have fallen more than 15% since the company reported disappointing earnings in May, but Mr. Market may have gotten this one wrong, says Fool contributor Steve Symington in the following interview with the Fool's Alison Southwick.
More specifically, considering this quarter will include Universal Display's twice-annual license payment from Samsung (which is set to rise by a third to $20 million), Steve thinks the now might be a great time for investors to open a long-term position.
But what do you think? Is Universal Display a good long-term buy? Watch the video to get Steve's take, and then weigh in using the comments section below.

Kroll's ID TheftSmart Service™
Because securing your personal information is important, Emory Healthcare has engaged Kroll Inc. to provide its ID TheftSmart™ service at no cost to our affected patients for one year. If you think your personal information may have been affected, please call 1-855-205-6950 to see if you are eligible to register for this service.
Order Your Free Credit Report
To order your free credit report, visit www.annualcreditreport.com, call toll-free at 1-877-322-8228, or complete the Annual Credit Report Request Form on the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's ("FTC") website at www.ftc.gov and mail it to Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. The three credit bureaus provide free annual credit reports only through the website, toll-free number or request form.
When you receive your credit report, review it carefully. Look for accounts you did not open. Look in the "inquiries" section for names of creditors from whom you haven't requested credit. Some companies bill under names other than their store or commercial names. The credit bureau will be able to tell you when that is the case. Look in the "personal information" section for any inaccuracies in your information (such as home address and Social Security number). If you see anything you do not understand, call the credit bureau at the telephone number on the report. Errors in this information may be a warning sign of possible identity theft. You should notify the credit bureaus of any inaccuracies in your report, whether due to error or fraud, as soon as possible so the information can be investigated and, if found to be in error, corrected. If there are accounts or charges you did not authorize, immediately notify the appropriate credit bureau by telephone and in writing. Credit bureau staff will review your report with you. If the information can't be explained, then you will need to call the creditors involved. Information that can't be explained also should be reported to your local police or sheriff's office because it may signal criminal activity.
Contact the U.S. Federal Trade Commission
If you detect any unauthorized transactions in your financial account, promptly notify your payment card company or financial institution. If you detect any incident of identity theft or fraud, promptly report the incident to your local law enforcement authorities and the FTC. If you believe your identity has been stolen, the FTC recommends that you take these additional steps:
- Close the accounts that you have confirmed or believe have been tampered with or opened fraudulently. Use the FTC's ID Theft Affidavit (available at www.ftc.gov/idtheft) when you dispute new unauthorized accounts.
- File a local police report. Obtain a copy of the police report and submit it to your creditors and any others that may require proof of the identity theft crime.
You can contact the FTC to learn more about how to protect yourself from becoming a victim of identity theft:

Place a Fraud Alert on Your Credit File
To protect yourself from possible identity theft, consider placing a fraud alert on your credit file. A fraud alert helps protect you against the possibility of an identity thief opening new credit accounts in your name. When a merchant checks the credit history of someone applying for credit, the merchant gets a notice that the applicant may be the victim of identity theft. The alert notifies the merchant to take steps to verify the identity of the applicant. You can place a fraud alert on your credit report by calling any one of the toll-free numbers provided below. You will reach an automated telephone system that allows you to flag your file with a fraud alert at all three credit bureaus.

Place a Security Freeze on Your Credit File
You may wish to place a "security freeze" (also known as a "credit freeze") on your credit file. A security freeze is designed to prevent potential creditors from accessing your credit file at the credit reporting agencies without your consent. There may be fees for placing, lifting or removing a security freeze, which generally range from $5-$20 per action.

Dorchester County legislators said they'll be working on comprehensive tax reform, education funding reform and ethics reform next year, but the No. 1 issue will be a fix to the convoluted election laws that led to this year's electoral meltdown.
"We're going to even the playing field," between incumbents and challengers, Rep. Chris Murphy said.
The law spells out different filing requirements for incumbents and challengers, which caused a few hundred challengers to be booted off the primary election ballot.
The debacle embarrassed the state, said Sen. Sean Bennett, who was dragged through a months-long court process to determine whether he would be allowed to run as a Republican.
Four members of Dorchester County's delegation spoke at the Chamber's annual legislative luncheon, giving members a preview of the legislative year ahead.
Another issue that should get attention is a texting-and-driving bill.
Jack Mitchell, regional director of AT&T, which sponsored the lunch, said AT&T supports texting-and-driving laws.
A much-cited 2009 study by Virginia Tech concluded that texting while driving, in heavy vehicles or trucks, increases the risk of crash 23 times as much as non-distracted driving.
The study recommended banning texting for all drivers and banning all cell phone use for newly licensed drivers.
Rep. Joe Daning said the House passed a texting bill last year.
"It went across the hall -- enough said," he said. "Sean's going to fix that," he joked.
Bennett said the Senate is slow by design. But based on a caucus meeting last week, he believes there's real interest in changing the Senate's rules to move legislation more quickly, he said.
But Bennett said his primary interest is business issues.
He talked about the need for comprehensive tax reform as well as improving infrastructure.
There's no appetite for increasing the gas tax to pay for road needs, he said. Instead, there's talk of funding infrastructure needs from the general fund.
Rep. Jenny Horne said part of the comprehensive tax reform is reducing the industrial property tax to 6 percent from the current 10.5 percent.
Education funding reform would ensure that funding is based on a weighted pupil unit and that funding follows the child rather than the category.
There are currently 76 funding categories, she said, and the funding formula was designed 30 years ago.
If legislators could agree to an uniform statewide millage, then Dorchester taxpayers would most likely get a break on their property taxes, she said.
Everyone is concerned about property taxes on small business, so a shift in rates would help, she said.
Horne also encouraged the business community to get involved in education funding reform.
A strong education system is an investment in the future workforce, she said.

A federal judge in Rhode Island ruled that a prayer banner can remain in a public high school for the time being but must be concealed.
The terms were negotiated between Cranston High School West officials and opponents of the banner, and settled at the U.S. District Court in Providence.
The prayer banner has been covered with wood since a judge ordered its removal after Jessica Ahlquist, an atheist student, won a recent lawsuit for its removal.
Now, Cranston officials are deciding whether to appeal the removal order.
If the city appeals, the judge ordered the wood must be painted to match the wall color and stay that way during the appeal. If the city doesn't appeal, the banner must be removed

The University of Texas-Pan American is teaming up again with The University of Texas System and The University of Texas at Brownsville (UTB) to bring together educational institutions and nonprofit organizations to brainstorm how to graduate more students in a timely manner.
UTPA is hosting the next UT VistaSummit April 17, along with UT System and UTB, at UT Pan American's Haggar Building, 1407 E. Freddy Gonzalez Drive, from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
The focus of the summit is "The Rio Grande Valley's Role in Contributing to the Prosperity of Texas and the Nation by Expanding Educational Opportunities in South Texas with a focus on Reducing Time to Degree."
The conference will focus on exploring four programs proposed by the Valley educators to help more students graduate from college in less time: creating a cadre of counselors who will advise eighth-grade students through higher education, starting an academy of master teachers, expanding dual credit and early college high school courses and developing a four-year fast track master's program for students.
The Houston Endowment recently released a report that showed only 52.4 percent of Texas students who entered eighth grade from 1996-1998 ever enrolled in college and only 19.9 percent complete a certificate or degree program in six years. Among Hispanic students, the statistics are 40.9 percent and 11.6 percent, respectively.
UT Pan American's 2011 four-year graduation rate is 15.6 percent and its six-year completion rate is 41.9 percent. While the six-year graduation rate has indicated a steady increase in students completing their studies, more needs to be done to make sure all students earn their degrees without spending too much time and money, said UTPA President Robert S. Nelsen.
"We have one purpose at The University of Texas-Pan American: to graduate as many students as we can, as quickly as we can, and with the best education that we can provide them," Nelsen said. "By partnering with the UT System, our sister institution UT Brownsville, South Texas College, Texas State Technical College, and these philanthropic organizations, UT Pan American can fulfill that purpose while at the same time building a stronger, more vibrant community."
Scheduled to speak are UT System Chancellor Dr. Francisco Cigarroa, UTPA President Nelsen, UTB President Juliet V. García, STC Vice President for Academic Affairs Juan Mejia, Pharr-San Juan-Alamo Independent School District Superintendent Daniel King, Texas State Technical College President Cesar Maldonado, The Education Trust President Kati Haycock, Houston Endowment Director of Research and Planning George Grainger and Greater Texas Foundation President and CEO Wynn Rosser.

Major-league sources tell Fox Sports' Jon Paul Morosi that the Tigers remain in pursuit of free agent right-hander Brad Penny, who would seemingly compete alongside Armando Galarraga for the club's No. 5 starting spot.
Penny's name was initially kicked around in late December amid speculation the Tigers were interested in acquiring an additional starter. He posted a 3.23 ERA in nine starts for St. Louis last year before an upper back strain in May sidelined him for the remainder of the season.
The 32-year-old has eclipsed 200 innings pitched once since 2001, but a one-year, incentive-laden deal -- similar to that of recently-signed Chris Capuano -- could provide the Tigers with a low-cost, low-risk solution.
Detroit's rotation appears set with Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Rick Porcello and Phil Coke, but Dombrowski told The Detroit News that the Tigers have been in contact with several possible suitors.
"We've talked to some people," Dombrowski told The News on Tuesday. "We're open-minded about bringing someone in."
Penny, an 11-year veteran, would be more than a suitable back-of-the-rotation type pitcher and would add injury insurance to a pitching staff rarely at full strength. Dombrowski previously traded for Penny in 1999, when he was general manager of the Florida Marlins.
Less than a month ago, it appeared Tigers manager Jim Leyland was comfortable with Galarraga as his club's fifth starter, but now it seems the Tigers want the 28-year-old to win the job in Spring Training.
"Galarraga is our fifth starter right now," Leyland said last month at the Winter Meetings. "That's the way it stands as of Dec. 6."
The Tigers have been linked to several starting pitchers this offseason, including Chicago Cubs left-hander Tom Gorzelanny and Oakland's Brandon McCarthy. The Tigers also reportedly expressed interest in Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Shaun Marcum before he was dealt to Milwaukee.
Dombrowski recently discussed the possibility of bringing back former Tigers right-hander Jeremy Bonderman, too, but 28-year-old's services are reportedly being sought by the New York Yankees.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Nick Fairley might want to consider having his mail forwarded to Jim Caldwell's doghouse.
Because Fairley's still there, a week after first getting demoted to the second team. And given the way he's played, he should stay there.
The immensely talented yet continuously underwhelming defensive tackle was forced to come off the bench Friday night in a 27-26 loss against the Raiders in a preseason game. That hadn't happened since November 2012.
MLive was told by multiple sources that weight was a major component to Fairley's demotion, though it also comes down to something else. Something quite simple.
C.J. Mosley is outplaying him.
"We thought C.J. was playing better, so we put C.J. in his place," Caldwell said after Friday's game at the O.co Coliseum. "We'll see how Nick played, and we'll make another comparison, and see where we go next week."
If that's really all that matters here -- performance on the practice field, and in games -- then there's little reason to change things next week. Mosley should continue to start, and Fairley should stay with the twos.
Fairley loafed throughout much of practice last week. Mosley was excellent.
Fairley moped on the sidelines, kept to himself and provided minimal effort. Mosley was full throttle and disruptive.
And the best barometer of all: Fairley's listless week of practice translated to a virtually nonexistent game against Oakland, finishing with just one tackle -- and making that tackle only because he was blown off the ball.
Mosley, meantime, turned a great week of practice into a unit-best three tackles.
If the games are what matter -- if it's really about who is playing better, as Caldwell says -- then Fairley better hope he has comfortable pillows in that doghouse. Because Mosley has earned the right to stay with Ndamukong Suh, Jason Jones and George Johnson.
That first group was extremely disruptive early against Oakland -- without Fairley. Jones collapsed the pocket on the opening series, and Johnson drilled quarterback Matt Schaub on the second to force a three-and-out.
"I think our first unit did a pretty nice job," Caldwell said. "Really collapsing the pocket and really putting some pressure on them.
"Later on, some of our second and third unit didn't get the kind of pressure that we needed. They had a little bit more time to sit in the pocket and get a couple big plays on us."
What kind of message is Caldwell trying to send with all of this?
"No different than what we tell anybody else," he said. "There's a certain standard that we're looking for, and everybody's got to measure up -- and (Fairley) included."
That standard can mean a lot of things. It can mean effort, or execution, or fitness, or production. But on every one of those accounts, Mosley is lapping Fairley.
Of course, these things aren't always that black and white. Fairley also happens to be a former first-round pick who is immensely talented, and whose potential far exceeds that of Mosley.
It is in Detroit's long-term interest to get Fairley to play at his best. And this whole business with starting Mosley is probably, at its core, just another ploy to get that out of him.
But the problem is, Fairley's not at his best right now.
He's just getting outplayed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I have to submit my research proposal to the IRB?
A: Only if your research meets the following criteria:
- You are utilizing human participants in your research AND
- Your data collection methods are systematic and methodical AND
- The goal of your research activities is to contribute to the generalizable scientific knowledge base of a discipline (e.g., you plan to publish your results in a scholarly journal or you plan to present your findings at a professional conference)
Q: Do some departments have their own review boards? What should I do with my proposal if I am in one of those departments?
A: Yes, the Psychology Department has its own review board. Rebecca Brooke Bays, from Psychology, is the liaison to Skidmore's IRB. For both departments, complete the Research Proposal Template and e-mail the completed template along with supporting documentation to Professor Bays in Psychology. She will then determine if the proposal needs IRB review. You will be notified if you must submit your proposal to the full IRB.
Q: I'm doing a class project. Does it have to be reviewed by the IRB?
A: Class or lab projects that are being carried out for teaching purposes do not have to be reviewed by the IRB. Whether or not the IRB reviews research for a class project, it is expected that any research conducted by students, faculty, or staff will uphold the same ethical treatment of research participants as projects that are reviewed by the IRB.
Q: Do projects that are presented at the Academic Festival have to be reviewed by the IRB?
A: Only if the findings of those projects meet the criteria addressed in the first question above. If you plan to publish your findings in a scholarly journal or present them to a professional conference, then your project should be reviewed by the IRB.
Q: How long does it take to get my project reviewed by the IRB?
A: Typically, it should take no longer than two weeks. The IRB meets every other week. You must submit your proposal at least 5 working days before the meeting in which you would like your proposal to be reviewed. See the meeting schedule and deadlines page for specific dates.
Q: How do I submit a proposal to the IRB?
A: Instructions for proposal submission are given on the IRB Submissions page.
Q: Once a proposal is submitted, what happens?
A: The proposal first goes to the IRB Chair who decides if the proposal is exempt from review (there is no risk associated with the research and the other committee members do not need to review it) or should be reviewed. If the Chair decides that the research needs to be reviewed, it will then be read by other members of the committee. Once feedback on the proposal has been obtained from the committee, a memo is prepared for the researcher that summarizes the feedback. The committee can decide that the research proposal is approved as is, needs minor modifications, requires significant changes, or cannot be approved because of significant risks that are posed to the participants. See page 9 in Skidmore College's IRB Policy and Procedures for more detailed information.
Q: What if I disagree with the feedback provided by the IRB on my research proposal?
A: If a researcher does not feel that the IRB's suggested changes for a research proposal are appropriate, the researcher is encouraged to write a memo to the IRB Chair explaining the issue. The IRB is here to work with and support Skidmore College researchers and is open to any relevant information concerning their feedback provided to researchers.
