Maybe I have not found the right threads with the search engine...but I get the feeling that most people do not go to work during breast cancer treatment? I'm halfway through chemo and have surgery and radiation ahead of me. I'm a stage IIIa. So far I'm still working full time although I force myself to quit after 8 hours and go home no matter what! I've been taking a nap in the early evening, so I can feel rested in the AM. (No kids, a supportive husband) I've asked the doctors about needing a medical leave of absence in future...but have not gotten specific info. I'm sure they must have a rough idea. Maybe they don't want me to think about it yet or they're just to busy to talk to me about it. I live in the San Francisco Bay area and all the doctors are in short supply and extremely overbooked. I'd like to prepare myself and my employer for my future absence. What do you think? By the way, I'm fully prepared to retire now, at age 51, if necessary.

Rizzo, I worked throughout my chemo and radiation as well, I only took time off when I had surgeries. My Company were very supportive, while going through chemo I took that day and the following day off, the following week if I was tired I just went home. As for radiation I did it before I went to work and still did a full day, I was tired but nothing to bad. Talk with your employer and inform them of what is going on and what to expect, people react in different ways, you may not need any time off, but then again you might. Take it day by day. Be good to yourself and always remember.... its only a job... your health is your wealth. Take care

Hi and Welcome!
I can only tell you my specific story. I worked through 2 bouts of breast cancer, the second being Stage IV. It is totally up to you and how you feel. I worked in a pharmacy, 10 hour shift, constantly on your feet. Some days I was so tired and the pain could be intense, but I didn't want to sit at home and feel sorry for myself. Now, I have quit work and am loving every minute of it. I have been home now for 18 months and the cancer has recurred again. This time I am glad I am at home, because it gives me more time to focus on the family. It is all a matter of personal choices. If you want to work and can, than do it. If you would like to retire early and enjoy the years you have left, then do that. Only you can make the decision. Besides, you may find you are physically at a different stage through each of the phases. Personally, I believe if you have continued to work through the chemo, then radiation should be a piece of cake. It will make you tired, but then you are experiencing that now. The surgery will have a recovery time, when you can't work, just like any surgery, but the doctor should be able to give you a time frame there. Each person is unique, so there is no fast and true rule. Just listen to your body. It will tell you what you need to do. The total healing process is just that - a process. Let your body heal and don't get discouraged if it doesn't move at the pace you want it to. It takes time. You will have good days and some that are not so good. Allow yourself to go through those "not so good" days. And remember we are here for each other. Ask questions, someone will probably have gone through the same thing before you. We are here to help.
God Bless,

Welcome rizzo,

As a self-employed massage therapist that just moved to a new City, working was impossible because I would just be establishing myself with new clients, and then didn't want to disappoint new clients if I was too sick to really work properly on them. I was the percentage that became 24/7 nauseous sick with chemo for a full 12-15 days. Not everyone does that and it made my Onoc crazy because nothing he was giving me was relieving the symptoms. Then, I figured I'm probably being over medicated so together we stopped a lot of the anti-nausea stuff and eventually things settled down but made me weak. Had to use procrit to build me up again and something else so white counts and red were better. You know how you feel, and how much you can do without compromising your energy levels. Take each day at a time. Hugs, i

Hi Rizzo, I worked through chemo and radiation--it's a mixed bag. I am now 3 months out of radiation and just beginning to see how tired I was during it all. Of course, I thought I was doing just fine but looking back, I think everyone could see how tired I was. Although I got great press as a trooper, in retrospect, I think it wasn't the kindest thing I could do to myself. Cutting back a little would have been wise--cutting back and admitting I was doing so, I mean. I had to back off some but there was no real acknowledgement that that was what I was doing. Now that the treatment is over, I am still easily fatiqued but, because I plunged on during treatment, I am less willing to admit just how tired I really am.
I guess I am saying, take care of yourself--I would have gone crackers not working, but I also hated not being really crisp the whole time.
Jan 17, 2003 - 7:22 pm
Thank you everyone for replying to my questions. I know that a million brave ladies (and gents) have gone before me down this path. It's just nice to be able to see down the path a little ways through your experiences. It becomes a lot less frightening for me.

Farage brilliantly shuts down enraged father who brands him 'Britain's most hated man'
NIGEL FARAGE brilliantly turned the tables on an enraged father who called into his LBC show to have a go over Brexit and Donald Trump.
Launching a fiery tirade against the interim-Ukip leader, Paul told the Brexiteer he would be the most hated person in Britain within two years as he said he wanted his country back.
The father, who was out driving with his children, was so outraged with the anti-EU politician's bid to become the UK's ambassador to the US, he pulled over to take Mr Farage to task.
Paul roared to the LBC host: "In a year or a year and a half's time, you will be Britain's most hated man.
"I'm an average guy, I've got four children, I've got my son in the back of the car asking me: are Mexicans rapists? My son is scared.
Mr Farage told Paul to look at how Mr Trump has addressed the US since he won the election
"And you want to be the Ambassador? It's ridiculous...I can't even say some of the stuff that [Donald Trump] said.
"I remember you saying: 'We've got our country back.' Well my country is gone.
"I've got Polish friends being told to go home."
However, despite the furious attack on him and the President-elect, the Brexit-architect stood his ground.
Are you suggesting we withdraw our Ambassador?
Putting the LBC caller on the spot, Nigel Farage told Paul to look at how Mr Trump has addressed the US since he won the election earlier in November.
Taking no prisoners, he demanded: "Whatever you think about Trump and his comments about Mexicans, or whatever it may be, the fact is he is becoming President.
"Are you suggesting we withdraw our Ambassador?
"Show your son the two speeches that Trump has given to the nation in the last week where he has been absolutely magnanimous in victory.
"He's talked about being the President for all Americans."
Attempting to take a diplomatic approach, Mr Farage added that campaigns sometimes turn nasty, however he insisted the billionaire would make a good president for all Americans, as well as being good for the Western world.
The interim-Ukip leader added: "Sometimes things get said in election campaigns that are bitter, heated and I think people are quite capable - Donald Trump himself - of, at times, going over the top.
"But I would urge you Paul, if your son is scared about the next US President, look at those addresses to the nation. I hope it sets your mind at rest at least a little bit."

Washington, Jan 30 : The DNA that originated from ancient viral infections are essential for a healthy pregnancy, says a new study. Retrovirus infections represent the most intimate host-pathogen relationship.
The virus inserts a copy of its genome into the DNA of the host cell, resulting in an irreversible, stable and sometimes lifelong infection.
If a sperm or egg cell is infected, the virus DNA can be passed down generations, permanently fixed in the germ line. As a result, an Endogenous RetroVirus (ERV) can exist for millions of years.
"Over the course of evolution, retroviruses have invaded the germ-line of our ancestors on numerous occasions. Now, human ERVs (HERVs) make up around 8% of our genome," said Dr David Griffiths from the Moredun Research Institute and Cecile Voisset from the Faculte de Medecine et des Sciences de la Sante in France.
Although there are no viruses similar to these ancient pathogens currently infecting humans, there are some related viruses in animals.
For a retrovirus to become part of the host genome it is usually inactivated by mutation or silencing so it does not express any proteins.
"Recent work has provided some tantalizing evidence supporting the roles of HERVs in normal physiology and also in disease, they can be seen as bona fide human genes," Griffiths said.
The study is published in Microbiology Today.

Expectations are tricky.
When they're high, there's possible disappointment, as there was for me with Fox's recent TV thriller The Following. But when they're low, there's potential; that glimmer of hope that something might actually be pretty good.
I had relatively no expectations going into last night's "Pilot" episode of Under the Dome other than my adoration of Stephen King, and if he's involved, I'll give it a try. Afterwards, surprisingly I came away quite satisfied.
Under the Dome begins with a mysterious man in a small New England town, Dale 'Barbie' Barbara, dumping a dead body into a shallow grave. As Barbie leaves, a force-field comes down, cutting off his, or anyone else's exit from the town of Chester's Mill. The barrier is a circular dome and it isolates everyone in town from the outside world. Panic ensues as Police Chief 'Duke' Perkins and local politician 'Big Jim' Rennie try to restore calm. But there are bigger mysteries in Chester's Mill than just being under the dome. For months previous, diesel trucks have been stockpiling fuel unbeknownst to most residents. The reasons are only know by Duke and Big Jim and remain a mystery. Local reporter, Julia Shumway has been tipped off to the stockpiling but before she can investigate, the dome hits and she becomes intrigued with the mysterious man in town, Barbie. There is connection between the two, and not just the obvious primal one. Barbie knows the whereabouts of her unaccounted for husband, but he would dare not tell.
From the "Pilot," Under the Dome isn't going to set the world afire, at least I don't think so. There are predictable scares, stereotypical characters, mysterious supernatural forces, and some severed limbs (my personal favorite – the leg of the pilot dropping after her plane hit the dome). Yet conventions aside, it works. Embarrassed to admit, I jumped off my couch a few times with fright. This shouldn't happen! I'm a grown man who's seen countless horror movies, stories far scarier than this. But again, it works. The characters are predictable, especially Junior, the obsessed jealous teenager who abducts his girlfriend, Angie, and locks her in his father's bomb shelter. Right here, Under the Dome shouldn't engage me, but it does. Similar story-lines have been done many times over. Yet, I felt claustrophobic watching this scene, which is a testimony to both the acting and direction. Neither was overdone. Again, I shouldn't be fooled by such things, but I was. The scene conjured up yet another irrational fear deep inside me – bomb shelters and pad locks. Great! Another thing to worry about.
From the "Pilot" episode at least, Under the Dome wasn't trying to be anything than what it is, a sci-fi horror story meant to give the audience surprises, scares and a few inappropriate laughs. Should I really laugh at a cow being cut in half by an invisible force-field? No, but I do. The creators of Under the Dome don't seem to be taking themselves too seriously, reminding me of the charm of CW's Arrow. It's never trying to be something its not, and that allows me be forgiving; the flaws almost become adorable.
I haven't read Stephen King's novel, so I'm hoping Under the Dome will probe some questions about the human condition when put under terrible stress. What would any of us do when put together in a fish bowl, unable to leave? Will the good be able to stay morally sound, even if given the keys to power? Will evil persist in the individuals who have such a proclivity? Does power do what they say, corrupt absolutely? They're excellent questions and it should be fun to watch how they are answered under the dome.

When I read that "Curves Are Back!", in the Bazaar's May 2010 magazine I was super delighted! The magazine brought out that the fashion designers have left the "boyish" look and have embraced the ladylike styles. When I first read that I said to myself, "finally, it was about time!"
Designers everywhere are being inspired with the old fashion trends of the past. Especially the styles of the 40's, 50's and 60's. In the article it brought out how many designers are looking to Jackie O's, Audrey Hepburn, Marylin Monroe, and Grace Kelly for their new inspirations. Each and every one of these ladies had their own signature look that identify them as their own.
I am very thrilled by the great retro styles that have come back! For one thing most women like myself were endowed with soft lines and curves. We can't hide the fact that we are women. And aren't these styles to die for? I absolutely love putting on a dress that makes me feel pretty and ladylike.
Now my second reaction to the "Curves Are Back", had me also wondering if curves were really gone. As far as I remembered I always had curves and loved looking for clothes that would accentuate my hourglass figure.
You see I came from the Spanish culture were it was alright for women to have curves. The women were proud and happy of having curves, and so were their men. In South America we never heard of women starving on purpose so that they could be thin. Being thin was a sign that you were extremely poor or that you were sick.
Women in these Spanish countries have always embraced their femininity. They love wearing clothes that accentuates their waist, hips, and other parts of their womanly body. Although they looked at the American fashion for style inspiration, at the end they still wanted to look as womanly as possible.
Although I wasn't influenced by the thin and boyish trend that the fashion world was sporting in their run ways. There were times that these skinny trends shown in the fashion magazines was alluring to me. I have to say that these people have a knack in making these thin girls look glamorous and perfect. I could sympathize with young girls and adult women that could easily be influenced by wanting to become thin.
Thin has influenced designers for many years. Around 20's the thin boyish look of the flapper girls were in. Thin again showed up in the late 60' and part of the seventies with the Twiggy influence. Then again in the 90's and up to our time thin was in again. This time the fashion looked more grunge and depressing. One article I read called it the " Heroin Chic" style.
I sincerely hope that the new curvy trend could stay. But as we all know fashion comes and goes. But no matter what the fashion industry dictates what women should wear, women of all ages, shapes, and sizes should always stay true to themselves. For one thing being a woman is great, but being a happy woman is even better!

What Is a Style Sheet?
A style sheet is a special kind of notebook that defines a set of cell styles used in another notebook. The style sheet contains style definition cells, where each style definition cell sets the group of options that are applied to any cells of that same type. By changing a cell's style instead of assigning specific options to a cell, you apply all the cell attributes desired in one step. You also give your notebooks a consistent design and make it easy to change that design globally. (You can always set local options in a cell to override the settings specified by the style.)
A cell style defines various settings for the options associated with a cell, such as font, color, justification, alignment, and so on. There are many different cell styles in a notebook, such as text, input, and output, for example. The cell style can be applied to a single cell or a group of cells. Cell styles are assigned names that indicate their use, such as "Section" or "Text".
The style sheet can also define some global options for the notebook, such as headers and footers or page size.

This week on Monday, I started the Insanity workout with my roommate, Megan.
Figure: Beach Body's Insanity Workout package, lead by Shaun T.
Ever since Summer 2010, my own intense cardio workouts have become sub par to non-existent. I had been doing light cardio randomly a few times a while for the past 3-5 months, but I knew it wasn't challenging me. My main goal is to keep my friend motivated and pumped to exercise and lose that weight for a healthier her. Best part is that I don't have to make her pay for a gym membership to go with me since I got a copy for free from my coworker at the lab.
The idea behind Insanity is that it is high impact cardio exercise with no weight training needed. It's suppose to be easy to do at home, during any time that is convenient to the customer. Basically you are trying to do as many repetitions of an exercise as you can within an allotted amount of time versus traditional cardio that gradually gets your heart rate up for a small amount of time and then gradually brings it down again.
Christal's Exercising Past!
Before going into what I think of Insanity after a few days of trying it out, I'd like to go over a few regimes that were effective for me during college. This way you have an idea of what exercise experience I have and how relevant my review is for you. Since my attentiveness to exercise was sporadic during my years in school, I have provided an estimate of "months" for the duration of the regime.
- Kickboxing class: weekly basis for 45mins + 15mins weightlifting (8lbs dumbbells or 9lb body bar)- 18 months
- Yoga class: basic Hatha movements for 60 mins weekly basis – 3 months

Christal's Current Physique
Now about me. At this point I'm pretty overweight and out of shape, though previous regimes has kept my form not too bad. I was about 12lbs away from my first weight loss goal, but I lost about 4lbs spontaneously out of stress from an out of state interview and lack of monetary needs for food. That's another story, another blog entry in itself.
Thoughts on Insanity Workout after 1st Week:
In Insanity, I think it is really important to know basics that the instructor sort of assumes you do. Here are my top tips in helping you do Insanity if you are having a hard time, like me.
1) Breathing
Shaun T mentions "breathe through the stretch" a lot, and I think it's really important. As you pull your body to stretch your muscles, you should exhale as it will make the pain less and allow you to go further, increasing flexibility. I learned that tid-bit from Yoga class. From Cardio Kickboxing, I learned that controlled breathing helps execute a move. For example, when completing a kick, release a breathe. The worst thing you could do to your fatigued muscles is not allow oxygen to save them from lactic acid build-up
2) Keep your core tight
Again, this is mentioned in the video in text and a few times by the instructor Shaun T. You could easily go through the motions of this program and not see results. It is important to keep the abs/core engaged. This can be difficult if you are also trying to figure out how to control your breathing, but it really helps. You will always be working out the core even if you are not focusing on abs during that session. Thank you Cardio n' Tone for teaching me this.
3) Eating
Not really mentioned at all in the video besides the damn Recovery shakes. My Kickboxing instructor always recommended eating at least 3-4 hours before class and maybe a bar in between, but nothing heavy (or else you will throw up). Following the exercise, about 1 hour after, it is recommended to have a nice meal or big snack. I think it's important to have some good protein in there (ie- meats).
4) Keeping your head level
Try to keep your head up, especially when you are not feeling well while exercise. If you tilt your head down too much during such an intense work out you might get dizzy or pass out.
5) Stretching/Warming up
Insanity has sections dedicated to both stretching and warming up, but I suggest you do your own stretches before starting the video since Shaun T gets into the work out rather quickly. I DEFINITELY suggest this if you have not been conditioned through high impact cardio before. I have done Kickboxing a many times, but my gastrocnemius' point of insertion in my leg feels like it wants to snap sometimes. And I don't have girly legs either; my thighs and calves could rival those of Kratos from God of War!
Figure: Me versus the God of War – WHO WILL WIN THE MUSCLEY LEG WAR?
6) Getting acquainted with proper form
Prior to participating in the Insanity exercises, I would definitely watch or review them quickly ahead of time to see what exercises they ask you to do. During the video, you have a few seconds during your water break to learn the moves (if it is the first time you are completing the circuit). Instead of rushing or disrupting your workout to pause, take some time before hand to make sure you know how to properly perform the moves with good form without speed. This way you know you are working it out right.
7) Learn to modify
So, I can't guarantee I will have ground breaking results after 60 days because I modify the workout for myself. I know my body and my limitations, so I will swap out some jumps for jogging from time to time, for example. I really wish Shaun T would show "low impact" alternatives to the moves, but then I guess it would not be called "INSANITY." All the same, listen to the pains of your body, take it down a level if you need to so that you can prevent injury to your muscles.
Other critiques and comments:
- Con: does not provide 1 break day in between each exercise day for muscles to heal and grow
- Con/Pro: does not provide weightlifting: appeal because less equipment needed; questionable because muscles help burn fat even when not engaged
- Con: WAAAAYY too fast for beginners to exercise
- Con: SUPER high intensity. Jumping is a great way to increase heart rate, but this is crazy
- Con: The day I can do these exercises easily, they will become very repetitive and boring. But right now I don't have to worry about that
- Pro: Very challenging and great for more experienced people
- Pro: I sweat every time. Buckets of sweat. Sore muscles. IT MUST BE WORKING.
- Pro: I love the timer provided at the bottom of the video. It helps me push further when I know I'm closer to an end of a particular segment
- Pro: Very motivating and inspiring (just YouTube Insanity progress or results) if you have a gym buddy to cry it out with
- Pro: Only 60 days to complete the routine and then it can be repeated!
- Pro: Shaun T is a great instructor, and he makes me laugh (though this leads me to realize the pain in my stomach muscles and collapse)
If you are interested in seeing how Insanity workouts look, check out this video posted on YouTube. It is the Fitness Test you are suppose to do to assess your progress.
I'll check in again sometime and let you know how it's going with Insanity! I encourage you all to at least try it with a friend and see if it's for you. The best type of exercise that is most effective is one that includes gym buddy ❤

About Us
Research Internship – Undergraduate level
The Massachusetts Appleseed Center for Law and Justice is seeking graduate interns for the fall semester. The Massachusetts Appleseed Center for Law and Justice is a non-profit organization driven by a mission to promote equal rights and opportunities for Massachusetts residents by developing and advocating for systemic solutions to social justice issues. We strive to identify social injustices that have not been fully addressed by either public or private sectors and address those injustices by leveraging our own resources, partnering with pro bono attorneys, and working with strategic coalitions.
Interns will engage in a variety of activities, which can be expected to include a selection of the following, based on project needs and the individual's interests and skills:
- Literature reviews and summaries
- Survey development
- On-site survey administration with range of participants
- Participating in qualitative interviewing, field research, and/or focus groups
- Coding qualitative data
- Data entry
- Online research
- Acquiring, merging, and manipulating quantitative data sets
- Quantitative and/or qualitative data analysis
- Report writing
- Translation (Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Mandarin, Spanish, or Vietnamese)
Applicants must have strong writing and organizational skills and must be proficient in the Microsoft Office Suite. Research interns at the undergraduate level are expected to have completed coursework in research methods. Experience with SPSS or other statistical software packages a plus. Students interested in qualitative methods, survey research, data analysis, and the justice system are especially encouraged to apply. A passion for social justice and applied research are essential.
While internships are unpaid, interns gain valuable experience in applied qualitative and quantitative methods, policy research, program evaluation, and have the opportunity to engage with prominent members of the justice community. The extent to which the intern is able to contribute to the research process will depend on both their previous experience and their time commitment to this internship.
Internships will begin in as soon as possible and entail a minimum time commitment of 12 hours per week. Depending on the intern's duties, this time will likely be divided between our office in downtown Boston, on-site locations in and around the city (accessible by public transit, though ability to drive to other cities might be advantageous), and working remotely. Exact starting date and work days/hours are flexible.

Before the usual suspects start screaming for more gun control laws, maybe they should consider that there are already laws against killing kindergartners, teachers and bringing guns into a school. What law do they think would have stopped the shooter from killing those people?
If it were that easy, we could pass a law making it illegal to be a terrorist. Hmm, they already have that, don't they? The terrorists don't pay attention, either.

TWO teenaged boys who were part of a gang that raided nearly £8,500 worth of property from a Burnley home have appeared in court.
The youngsters, aged 15 and 17, appeared separately before the Burnley Youth Court where they each admitted to burglary at the Oxford Road property.
The court was told how the gang broke in looking for cannabis but came out with jewellery, computers and laptops which they tried to sell on to undercover police just minutes after the raid.
At the hearing of the 17-year-old teen, Sarah Stratham (prosecuting) said the youths thought they "smelled the smell of cannabis through the letter box" so broke into the house on November 2nd of last year.
She said that the gang could not find any of the Class B drug but instead helped themselves to a haul of goods totalling £8,448 before returning to an address in Burnley Wood.
Just minutes after the raid they were on the phone to undercover police trying to sell on the stolen goods.
Miss Stratham said: "They telephoned undercover officers and said they had laptop computers for sale.
When the undercover officers arrived each youth was sat with their own respective laptop deciding whether it was in working order.
"Deals were brokered for how much they could be sold for within minutes of the house burglary."
However, in mitigation the court was told that the teenager had little "criminal experience" and had pleaded guilty to the crime, in which he admitted stealing a Fujitsu laptop, at the first opportunity.
He was bailed until March 17th when he will appear before Burnley Youth Court for sentencing.During the hearing of the 15-year-old boy, the court was told how he had been part of a gang that burgled the Oxford Road property on November 2nd of last year.
Addressing the Burnley boy, Judge Peter Ward said: "The charge you pleaded guilty to, even though that is the only charge, that charge relates to a dwelling house burglary during the day. But nevertheless it is a dwelling house burglary and you stole there, with others, items to a total value of £8,400.
"That is a serious matter. It involved invading someone else's property as well as the theft of other people's property.
"If you were that person you would be rather upset."
The youngster was bailed until March 31st when he will learn his fate.

Skip to comments.Police: Woman kills boyfriend in self-defense(TN)
Posted on 08/31/2012 1:10:11 PM PDT by marktwain
The preliminary investigation into a fatal shooting near Fisk University on Thursday night reveals the incident may have been in self-defense.
Police said Deverya Rose, 23, admitted to shooting her boyfriend Christopher T. Sims, 25, at an apartment on Blank Street.
Rose told police she and Sims were involved in a violent altercation during which, she said, Sims put a gun to her head and grabbed her by the hair. Rose said while pushing her head to the floor, Sims laid the gun down. She picked the gun up and fired it, hitting Sims in the chest. He died at the residence.
(Excerpt) Read more at kpho.com ...
I wonder if she held it sideways like they do on TV?
So sad, too bad. Another punk down the drain
"while pushing her head to the floor"
Learned that from Trayvon.
Didn't work out for this POS either.
She probably lives in a rented apartment.
There is one upset landlord out there.
" Sims put a gun to her head and grabbed her by the hair. Rose said while pushing her head to the floor, Sims laid the gun down. "
If you pull a gun on someone, It is probably a good idea to use it, rather than lay it on the floor, next to the intended victim for future use. Oh well, all's well that ends well. Darwin Award candidate?
"Hi, mah name Deverya."
Say, baby, you got you a man?
"Nah, I shot him daid d'other day. You seen me on TV?"
Oh, hey, mah momma callin me on the cell juss right now. She want me pick her up some Pepto Bismol. See you round. Got's to go!
Innocent not innocence, damn iPad
If I was a woman who wanted to kill her boyfriend, the first thing I'd do after killing him would be to concoct a tissue of lies about being beaten up or threatened by him beforehand. Not saying thats what definately happened in this case, but we should be aware of the possibility...

What is endometrial cancer?
Endometrial cancer, or cancer of the endometrium, is a cancer that develops in the inner lining of the uterus (womb). This lining is called the endometrium. Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells that invade and cause damage to surrounding tissue.
What are the risk factors for endometrial cancer?
The exact cause of endometrial cancer is not known, but certain risk factors are linked to the disease. Most of the known risk factors are linked to the balance between the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Some risk factors include:
- Obesity (being very overweight) - Fat tissue in the body can change some other hormones into estrogens. Having more fat tissue can increase a woman's estrogen levels and her risk for developing endometrial cancer.
- History of not being able to become pregnant or having never given birth – Women who have not been pregnant have a higher risk due to increased exposure to estrogen.
- Use of tamoxifen - This drug, which is used to treat women with breast cancer, acts like estrogen in the uterus and can increase the risk of endometrial cancer.
- Estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) - This therapy, involving the use of female hormone estrogen to offset the effects of menopause, can increase endometrial cancer risk if progesterone is not used to protect against precancerous changes in the endometrium.
- Ovarian diseases - Women who have certain ovarian tumors have higher than normal estrogen levels and lower levels of progestins. The increase in estrogen compared to progestins can increase a woman's chance of getting endometrial cancer.
- A diet high in animal fat - A high-fat diet can increase the risk of several cancers, including endometrial cancer. Because fatty foods are also high-calorie foods, a high-fat diet can lead to obesity—a confirmed endometrial cancer risk factor.
- Diabetes - Diabetes has been linked to weight, but some studies suggest that diabetes by itself could be a risk factor for endometrial cancer.
- Age - As females get older, the likelihood of endometrial cancer increases. Most endometrial cancers occur in women age 50 or older.
- Early menstruation - If monthly periods begin before age 12, the risk for this cancer might increase as the uterus might be exposed to estrogen for more years.
- Late menopause - If menopause occurs after age 50, the risk for this cancer might increase as the uterus might be exposed to estrogen for more years.
- Total length of menstruation span - The span of menstruation might be a more important factor than the age at which periods started or ended.
- Family history - Endometrial cancer risk is increased some families who are also at risk to develop a certain type of colon cancer.
- Earlier pelvic radiation therapy - Radiation used to treat some other cancers can damage the DNA of cells, increasing the risk of a second type of cancer.
What are the symptoms of endometrial cancer?
The following symptoms might occur with endometrial cancer or other conditions:
- Vaginal bleeding between normal periods in pre-menopausal women
- Vaginal bleeding or spotting in post-menopausal women, even a small amount
- Lower abdominal pain or pelvic cramping
- Thin white or clear discharge in post-menopausal women
- Extremely long, heavy or frequent vaginal bleeding episodes in women over 40
How is endometrial cancer diagnosed?
If a woman has any of the symptoms of endometrial cancer described above, she should visit her doctor. The doctor will ask her about her symptoms, risk factors, and family medical history. The doctor will also perform a general physical exam and an exam of the pelvis. Following are some of the procedures that might be used in diagnosing endometrial cancer:
- Endometrial biopsy — During this procedure, a sample of endometrial tissue is obtained through a very thin flexible tube inserted into the uterus through the cervix. The tube removes a small amount of endometrium using suction.
- Transvaginal ultrasound or sonography — A transvaginal sonogram uses sound waves to create images of the uterus.
- Dilation and curettage (D & C) - This procedure is done in the operating room. During this procedure, a special surgical instrument is used to scrape tissue from inside the uterus. Increasingly, in-office hysteroscopy is used to evaluate the endometrium.
- Testing of endometrial tissue – Endometrial tissue samples removed by biopsy or D & C are examined under the microscope to determine whether cancer is present.
- CT or CAT scan (also called computed tomography, computerized tomography, or computerized axial tomography) — This is a scan that involves taking series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body. The images are created by a computer linked to an X-ray machine.
- MRI (also called magnetic resonance imaging) — This is a procedure in which radio waves and a powerful magnet linked to a computer are used to create detailed pictures of areas inside the body.
- CA-125 assay — This blood test can measure the level of CA-125, a substance that sometimes is found in an increased amount in the blood, other body fluids, or tissues. A particular level of CA-125 might suggest the presence of some types of cancer.
How is endometrial cancer treated?
Surgery is the main treatment for most women with endometrial cancer, although radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and chemotherapy are other tools that may be used depending upon the stage and the specific type of endometrial cancer cell found. In certain situations, a combination of treatments might be used. The choice of treatment or treatments will depend on the type and stage of the cancer and the overall medical condition of the patient.
Can endometrial cancer be prevented?
Most cases of endometrial cancer cannot be prevented, but women can take some measures to reduce their risk of developing endometrial cancer. Risks might be reduced with:
- Using oral contraceptives
- Controlling obesity
- Controlling diabetes
In addition, women who are considering estrogen replacement therapy should talk to their doctors to assess their risk of endometrial cancer.
The American Cancer Society encourages women to discuss any unexpected bleeding or spotting with their doctors. Women who have or are at high risk for hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) should receive annual screenings for endometrial cancer with endometrial biopsy starting at age 35.

Greek police torture anti-fascist protestors while held in capitivity
Fifteen anti-fascist protesters arrested in Athens during a clash with supporters of the neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn have said they were tortured in the Attica General Police Directorate (GADA) – the Athens equivalent of Scotland Yard – and subjected to what their lawyer describes as an Abu Ghraib-style humiliation…
Several of the protesters arrested after the first demonstration on Sunday 30 September told the Guardian they were slapped and hit by a police officer while five or six others watched, were spat on and "used as ashtrays" because they "stank", and were kept awake all night with torches and lasers being shone in their eyes…

Chicago's teachers could strike a blow for organised labour globally
Not only is this the heart of Obama country, where unions are expected to play ball with the Democrats in an election year. It is also a city where, thanks to Mayor Rahm Emanuel, teachers are not allowed to strike unless more than 75% of union members vote for it.
Yet it is not just the local establishment that will be unsettled here. This is getting national attention in the US, and a strike could be an embarrassment to President Obama. Moreover, it could re-ignite the American labour movement at a time of global unrest.

In Egypt: Mahalla textile workers strike to remove CEO
Thousands of textile workers at the state-owned Mahalla Misr Spinning and Weaving company began a strike on Sunday morning demanding the removal of the company's chairman and upper management.
As I was writing yesterday, the working class in Egypt has played and continues to play a leading role in the revolutionary process in Egypt. It is significant that the Mahalla workers are striking, as they've played one of the most significant roles. The significance of the Mahalla factory is outlined in the excellent documentary by Al Jazeera, The Factory. Workers at Mahalla have been central to Egyptian social movements for decades, including in recent events, as some of the first protestors to raise the demand for the fall of the Mubarak regime.

Hutaree militia members acquitted and freed
Prosecutors agree that a man who was a member of a southern Michigan militia shouldn't be sent to prison when he returns to court for his sentence next month.
Joshua Clough of Blissfield served two years in jail before his release in April when he pleaded guilty to possessing machine guns. Federal prosecutors in Detroit say that's plenty, but they still want him to be placed on supervised release, or probation, for at least two years.
That's eight of nine member of the Hutaree militia that have been let off for planning a right wing putsch against the US government.
If these guys were Muslim they would've been sent straight to gitmo as "enemy combatants" and it would've been declared a triumph of national security. If they were black, they'd be sent to prison on gang charges and face decades in prison for owning automatic weapons. If they were Occupy activists they would've been beaten, maced, sent to prison, etc. But they're not. They're proto-fascist scum who planned to murder police officers in hopes of starting a war with the federal government and bringing about the end of days, and so they get let off because of "free speech" (yet, when Occupy activists get beaten it's because the cops are protecting property, or something).

Tax Changes How About The Fair Tax?Opinion November 14, 2017
Let me try to understand this. We are debating changes to our "Progressive" tax code, to make it easier for politicians to shake us down with us liking it, with people who can't balance the checkbook and won't listen to us anyway. Am I missing something?
So far, I have not yet heard the words "Fair Tax" enter this discussion. Why is that? Well, It's all about economic control that allows politicians to pick and choose winners and losers. That power alone allows them to keep their jobs, stiff us, and make us play their game. I'm tired of it.
When corrupt politicians control our lives and we don't recognize what it is doing to us, we allow their actions to pass on without complaint hoping apparently, that somebody else will do something. Americans just want to be left alone to provide for their families and their retirements, and it's always the damn politicians who stand in our way. Less government means more freedom and I think the crippling effect of government deciding who pays how much, is unconstitutional anyway. A Fair Tax would solve that.
Congressional Republicans are ineffective at governing. Before, a few Congresses had over seventy GOP co-sponsors for the "FairTax". Today, it's half that. The reason was that it was once safe for them to say; "Yes, we support the Fair Tax" but, they never had an inkling they would actually have a chance to vote for it. They don't want that. Now they just ignore it and hope it goes away.
When the Republicans became the majority and changing the tax code became a serious issue, they could still talk around it. With Trump's election, Republicans went into a panic mode because they can't or don't want to explain the FairTax, let alone implement it.
I have talked with congressional campaigners in past elections and realized most are clueless about how the real tax system works or how the Fair Tax could improve economics for all.
This might help explain Obama's twenty trillion dollar national debt he saddled us with leaving Donald Trump to take the blame when it all collapses, as it will, shortly.
The most important reason for their impotence is that under the Fair Tax politicians lose control over us. 'Nuf said?" They would lose their power to reward and punish Americans using the current tax code and its enforcement arm, the IRS Gestapo, as a weapon. With the Fair Tax, loopholes would be closed and there would be no reason for the corruption lobbying encourages. Lobbyists bring money, and favors to our public servants ensuring the continuation of government corruption, not because money corrupts but because politicians are corruptible. One only need look at the Clinton Foundation and the Podesta Group to see real crime rings that can run circles around the Mafia. The changes wrought could be incalculable. Patronage would be threatened, tax lawyers and tax preparers would go belly up, and, lacking a "raison d'faire," corrupt politicians would go home and try to exist off their congressional retirements. Not too shabby. With the Fair Tax we could also demand, because we desperately need it, term limits at all levels of government, not just the President.
But, that ain't gonna happen. You know it and I know it because we simply do not have the power to lift the yoke of oppression off our shoulders or stop the lash on our backs and, be it a Democrat, a Republican or far left Socialists like uncle Bernie and Aunt Warren, our public servants in Washington won't allow that. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get 'em! (12Nov17)
Short Takes – Lessons That Should Be LearnedOpinion November 13, 2017
Lessons That Should Be Learned
Apart from the fact that the Democrat Party is in a shambles, and they'll never admit it, Democrats PAC's are not necessarily so and are now going all out in funding state and local races, an area dominated by Republicans in recent years, and starting to win some. That is bad for Americanism and the Republican party and good for Socialism.
One lesson we should take away from the Virginia governor's race is that the Democrats will apply lessons learned to all upcoming state races, while the GOP reads polls. It is clear that the Democrat PAC's have gone after and energized their base. The scale of their effort even reached into many less reported, smaller state and local races in Red States and are bearing fruit. They are organized and the GOP still haven't passed a meaningful bill (health care or Tax reform). I'm afraid the Establishment Republicans will once again fumble away the game.
The Republicans sit on their hands and worry only about how to keep "moderates" in office and keep out conservatives. Republicans ignore at their peril, the ferocity of the coming Democrat campaigns for Red State Governorships, Senatorial and Congressional races as well as Secretaries of State and Attorney General's positions. It is these smaller races where the strength of a party lies for fending off lawsuits against conservative state initiatives and for holding power when redistricting congressional districts comes up every ten years.
Democrat PAC's bombard my email ten to fifteen times every day pleading for donations, even as low as a $1.00, to combat Republicans who are destroying Obama's legacy, shredding the Constitution and with other outlandish claims that Trumps impeachment is on hand if they only had only a few dollars more. These are followed up with sad pleas that they missed their goal because I didn't contribute and yet, I read where the Democrats are gathering donations at a rate that far exceeds the GOP's efforts.
I can understand that. I no longer donate to the GOP because they have become a money grubbing organization, not to promote the conservative Republican agenda, that they despise by the way, but to fund the elections of moderate candidates willing to become swamp creatures, or to fund Democrats if a Republican candidate doesn't signal he/she is one of them.
I don't know about Ed Gillespie except that he falls into the "Moderate Republican" category, gave lip service to Trump but didn't or wouldn't embrace Trump's immigration policy, military buildup policy, and healthcare policy, tax-reform or job creation. Trumps record of success on all of those, except replacing Obamacare, are masterstrokes of managerial efficiency. Reducing the "deep state" is going on apace. The Republicans will be facing a catharsis if they deliver to us any more such losses.
The moderate Republicans will always fail because they don't realize that Donald Trump is a successful business manager, a promoter of what's great about America and America's workers, and not simply an ineffective drone of a president that elite politicians can manipulate to affect domestic and foreign policy to satisfy their corrupt ends.
Trump will never be a tchotchke. Daily he sets the news agenda for the media. and has them chasing rainbows, creating fake stories just to fill space and directing issues where he wants them. In Virginia's governor race, with Trump away, the GOP did none of these. The GOP is leaderless, adrift on a sea of inaction. Perhaps they should join Trumps party!
Remember, freedom is the goal, the constitution is the way. Now, go get 'em! (10Nov17)
Senator David Perdue Refutes Misinformation On TaxState & National November 10, 2017
Senator David Perdue Refutes Misinformation On Tax
"No excuse for this nonsense. I think it's our role, on both sides, to call out these untruths."
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator David Perdue (R-GA) spoke on the Senate floor to set the record straight on Democrat's false assumptions on tax, which have been proven wrong.
Citing Retracted Studies: "On Monday, The Tax Policy Center released a study saying that the House plan to change the tax code would raise taxes on 25% of American families. The study didn't even survive a full day. It was retracted later that afternoon. It's not even publicly available online to review. But do you know what is still public? The Democrat statements that came out of that report, false statements highlighting this study as reality."
Perpetuating Falsehoods: "The website Vox posted a story about the Tax Policy Center study titled, 'The Numbers Are In And The House Republican Tax Bill Raises Taxes On Nearly One-Third of Americans.' Sure, they say they'll update the story once new numbers are available. In the meantime, this headline and story are still in existence as if they were true. Why wouldn't they take down the story? Why wouldn't they change the headline?"
Failing Fact Checks: "Multiple members of the Minority Party have said the tax framework supported by President Trump would raise taxes on families earning less than $86,000 per year. This talking point is so wrong that even The Washington Post came out and said so. They gave this claim four Pinocchios. That's the worst rating you can get on their fact check."
Putting On A Show: "The Minority Party is doing all it can to try and stop us from getting this done this year because it makes good politics somehow. That's the only explanation I see. It just doesn't make any sense. Why would someone oppose giving the middle class a tax break? Why would someone oppose making America competitive again? Why would someone oppose bringing billions of dollars of U.S. profits back into the United States so they can be reinvested in the economy and create jobs?"
Ignoring National Interest: "If Democrats were acting in our national interest, we'd be hearing about the studies showing that, on average, Americans are projected to get a pay increase between $4,000-$9,000 under this plan. We'd be hearing about how families making less than $86,000 per year are actually getting a tax cut. Again, that's a point even The Washington Post acknowledged. We'd be hearing about how lowering the corporate tax rate and ending the tax on repatriated earnings will make us more competitive with the rest of the world. We'd be hearing about the economic growth that could result from these changes."
Changing Their Tune: "There are members of the Minority Party who supported these changes to the tax code right up to the point President Trump took office. That's no excuse for this nonsense. I think it's our role, on both sides, to call out these untruths. It's also our responsibility to stop this nonsense."

Senator David Perdue Talks Tax On CNBC
"The only reason we're doing the budget like this, 18 days after the beginning of our fiscal year, is to get tax done this year."
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator David Perdue (R-GA) spoke with Joe Kernen on CNBC's Squawk Box about why the budget process is a sham and should be viewed as merely a way to fix our tax code this year.
A Total Sham: "Let's be very clear. This budget is a sham. It's a fraud that's been perpetrated for the last 43 years since the Budget Act of 1974. The only reason we're doing the budget like this, 18 days after the beginning of our fiscal year, is to get to a vehicle to get tax done this year."
Budget Is Not A Law: "This is a resolution. It has nothing to do with how we'll fund the government. Congress already passed a short-term spending deal that got us past the end of the fiscal year. Sometime between now and December 8th, six people will get in a room and decide how to spend over $1 trillion, and the rest of us will get an up or down vote on that."
Getting To Tax: "I'm very confident we'll get this budget done because the only reason we're doing it this way is to get to the tax deal, which all of us are anxious to pass."
Making America More Competitive: "Consumer confidence is at a 16-year high and over 800 regulations have already been reversed this year. Now we have the anticipation of passing this tax deal that will actually help our corporations and our workers become competitive with the rest of the world again."
Funding The Military: "My argument is if you want to fund the military long-term, you better solve the debt crisis. To solve the debt crisis, we have to get after our budget process. If you really want to solve our funding issues, you better get the economy going, and the economy will move if we get this tax deal done. It's just as simple as that."
Helping American Workers: "We've got to lower the corporate tax rate, which is an onerous tax on American workers. It puts our workers at a disadvantage with the rest of the world. In 1986, the last time Congress took any measured change in the tax law, we had one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world. Today we have the highest in the OECD. We are also one of the last countries to have a repatriation tax. There are also some $2 trillion of U.S. profits stuck overseas. Fixing those things alone will stimulate this economy."

Police: Man stabbed woman, kidnapped daughter
An AMBER Alert for a toddler that was abducted in the Bronx was canceled after police caught the suspect in New Jersey and safely recovered the child.
New Jersey State Police said that Rebecca Valenzuela, 3, is safe and sound. Police said that troopers pulled over Diomedes Valenzuela, 51, on the Garden State parkway in Clifton and arrested him. The NYPD said that Valenzuela kidnapped his daughter Rebecca after stabbing her mother in the Bronx Tuesday afternoon. She is listed in critical condition.
Earlier, police said they were seen in a 2004 Silver Dodge Caravan crossing the George Washington Bridge, possibly heading for New Jersey, which is why New Jersey authorities were on alert.

Arsenal complete Santos deal
Arsenal have confirmed the capture of Brazil defender Andre Santos on a long-term contract from Fenerbahce.
By James Riach
Last Updated: 31/08/11 3:45pm
Arsenal have confirmed the capture of Brazil defender Andre Santos on a long-term contract from Fenerbahce.
The 28-year-old left-back moves to the Emirates for an undisclosed fee, thought to be in the region of £6m, having been with the Turkish champions since 2009.
Santos is expected to be a direct replacement for Gael Clichy who departed for Manchester City earlier in the transfer window, while fellow left-back Armand Traore has joined QPR following Sunday's 8-2 humbling at Manchester United.
On the new arrival, Wenger told Arsenal's official website: "Santos is a quality player, with the ability to both defend well and get forward and help with attacks.
"He has experience in the Champions League and for Brazil and has proven he can deliver at the highest level. We welcome Santos to the club and look forward to him having a big impact for us."
Santos added: "I am delighted to have signed for Arsenal. It was one of my dreams to play for a major European football club and I have accomplished this.
"I am very happy to be part of this team. All the Brazilians who came to this club spoke wonders about it and I am delighted to be part of the Arsenal family."
The pressure remains on Wenger following Arsenal's poor start to the campaign and the weekend defeat at Old Trafford has seen a late rush to make additions before the window closes.

Ribeiro, D., Chaves, R., Dias, R., and Marques, G., "Hybrid Hydraulic Refuse Truck Evaluation on Performance and Fuel Consumption: 3-Month Tests in the Rio de Janeiro Sanitation Department," SAE Technical Paper 2015-01-2852, 2015, https://doi.org/10.4271/2015-01-2852.
In order to evaluate the opportunities to use hybrid concepts for heavy commercial vehicles for emerging markets, MAN Latin America has developed a VW refuse truck with 23t GVW using the hybrid hydraulic technology. The in site vehicle tests measurements has indicated a fuel savings up to 25%, which means a reduction around 4.08 liters of diesel/hour or 20 tones CO2/year [1].Thus, a collaborative cooperation with Rio de Janeiro Sanitation Department (Comlurb) was set for a truck evaluation on a real operation. This 3-month evaluation used one VW 24.280 6×2 hybrid hydraulic refuse truck and other VW refuse truck similar standard diesel. A random dispatch system ensures the vehicles were used in a similar manner. Global positioning system logging, fueling, and maintenance records were used to evaluate the performance of this hybrid hydraulic refuse truck.Due to the climate and infrastructure conditions, the hydraulic hybridization is a suitable solution for the severe applications of emerging markets. This study aims to evaluate the potential of this technology in real conditions of application, regarding to performance and fuel consumption, compared to a similar conventional diesel truck.

We purchased a laptop at a Sam's 2 1/2 hours from our house.When we purchased the laptop they guaranteed if there was anything wrong with the laptop it would be returnable to any location.
When we arrived home we found it to be password protected. We called and they didn't have the password. We asked if we could bring the laptop in to see what they could do. They told us that no matter what they would not return the computer.
We asked to speak to the store manager.
She said that it was not cost effective to return electronics and hung-up on us.We called corporate and they were of no help besides being able to file a formal complaint.
