^ Will DO!
Thanks For everything!
First of all - RAGE WAS AWESOME!!!!!!! Loved it!
but then again, I dont know much about IP's and that kind of stuff, but I realized that the DC servers were slower and my friend said its because of the automatic IP's. Is that gonna be difrent next year? and I dont know if anyone else asked this, but are the rumors true about rage being in Cape Town next year? if so, that will have to be one very long and expensive road-trip. but anyway, RAGE WAS GOOOOOOOOOOOD!
Man guys I am begging you to do next year in Durban I missed it cous of transport and about 30 of my mates as well
I tend to find that Rage just seems to get worse and worse each year. I remember way back in '06, Rage was so freaking awesome. Then '07 was pretty sweet, but after that it just all went downhill, and pretty quickly. To me, this was the worst Rage I have ever been to.
I mean, the NAG stand usually had stuff like Guitar Hero or Rock Band going, getting some crowd interaction going. This year DJV was there and the NAG Ultimate PC in a glass box. That was it. That said, I go for the social aspect, to meet all the guys I play with online, but then again we could just aswell go some place else to do so. If this is the trend Rage is going to take, I don't think I'll be attending any future ones.
You seem to have isolated the NAG stand in your complaints, but then state that rAge itself is getting worse. I don't follow. There are always other stands that have Guitar Hero or other social or rhythm games. Why is it that those stands don't satisfy your needs?
Also, as far as I'm aware, the NAG stand had Guitar Hero just the one year (2007), and never Rock Band.
What, exactly, do people expect from an expo? Rage was totally worth the R50 entry I paid this year, even though I was there for only a few hours. There were loads of games to play, competitions and whatnot. My personal complaint would be layout. A lot of the xbox titles seemed to be put in a way that had the players blocking walkways. The xbox stands right by the kinect displays were particularly useless. I landed up in front of some dude trying to play reach because I was watching the kinect games/displays. Basically, more space around where the player is meant to stand.
My Rage experience was great i enjoyed everything this year,the LAN network ran smooth,didn't experience any lag in my games i played.I was especially happy to see guys playing some cs:source once again.
The only downfall i found with Rage was the expo side,there's not as many stores selling pc hardware,but that's no-ones fault.There was still plenty to do during the weekend though.
On a side note one Particular store that i miss from a few Rage's ago was Naked IT they had such awesome products,anyone know what happened to them?
Rage this year was great, the expo was better than a couple of other times. BUT the Kinect dancing stage, Funky Town and Poker Face, I wanted a power failure there... Also the EA fighting cage, WAY too loud, all you hear the whole expo, for people fighting in sumo suits, The whole expo wants to be heard! :/
The Lan area was great, awesome atmosphere as always, bit disappointing that most of the people were DC++ing, And majority of game play for anyone that was not, was CoD, I enjoyed the occasional Nazi Zombies we managed to get going, but CoD4 was a bit much for 3 days, We tried to get the variety going, think next year We should organize a group of people for "Random Gaming". So anything vintage or new, we just jam it ALL! :D (like Dungeon Lords, or Aliens vs Predators from 1999 :D RANDOM!)
Quake 3 servers were a bust, which was sad! But just me been pedantic.
Otherwise successful year! Really enjoyed it.
Each time a smell the smell of hot dogs & Power Play I think back to our early morning Cod4 wars :D
"but I realized that the DC servers were slower and my friend said its because of the automatic IP's. Is that gonna be difrent next year? and I dont know if anyone else asked this, but are the rumors true about rage being in Cape Town next year?"
Not really a fan of DC++ myself. Had somebody use my PC on DC and heard no copmplaints from them. The DC server had a static IP address and as such I cannot see that it influenced anything.
rAge in Cape Town is always on the wish list. Not sure about any specifics for next year though. Thus a rumor as far as I know.
What about a pamphlet with a map with a legend of the expo so we can find ourselves around and not get lost...Also will the highlights vid of the expo be on the next NAG dvd?It wasn't on last years November\December dvds.
I enjoyed rage.
The lan section was truly something to behold.
"something tells me next rage you might need a bigger venue"
I was also half orgasmic to see dead space 2 there.
Seeing as this NAG LAN was the first one I've been to, it wasn't bad. I enjoyed a lot of the stuff there, though I would have liked to take part in that MAKRO NFS Shift Comp, but the guys couldn't get the two seats to work together. It was kinda nice to see Grant there (The host of Zoopy) and that interview with the Editor?
It seems Boss-man can hold his own pretty well.
And what about that RIG Comp??? The one in this months' NAG?? That Thing is HUGE in the Hardware department. It was also good to see Neo there doing the Draw, just a shame I didn't win it...
Hope we can do this again next year.
PS. I was the one trying to start up a Freelancer server.Didn't work out.
PPS. stength, I wish you good gaming.
Last edited by {G}Zulu; 19-10-2010 at 11:41 PM.
actually the com is still on and the draw only takes place sometime next month I think
Not the damn NAG Rig. The one you had to fill in a ticket for. The DAMN RIG Neo did a review on in this month's NAG. Go to the hardware section and check it out.
Darnit,am I the only one that actually SAW it???
The guys that built it had a draw at rAge on Sunday (Around the time the LAN ended)...
Oh, the GEC SuperComputer thing? I saw it (wowzerz) and I think I entered, but didn't win it... Wait a minute, maybe I did, I just don't know about it! If only.
That's a bit far-fetched though. Anyone that water-cools their HDDs and RAM is a douche with too much cash. That whole rig is completely over the top to be honest. What really got me though, was at the expo, they had it running a normal old 22in screen. Honestly, with 3 GTX 480s, if you don't have at least three 23in screens or a 30in 2560x1600, you're not going to see any difference between my 5850 and that setup in any game other than Crysis or Metro 2033.
True. But they did have the LED screen back there with all the other stuff, you know.
If you did win, they would have called you or e-mailed you. Neo did the draw and he himself did the phone call.
I was there.
BTW. It was good to see him.
Its an overall downward spiral. The NAG stand was just a perfect example - in my opinion - of the lack of attraction towards the expo. The '06 and '07 expos had an awesome atmosphere that used to buzz with excitement. This years one was rather bland and uninspired. Its as if the organizers just went in with the mindset "Lets just get this over with", and didn't actually give it any extra thought.
To me it seems Rage has boiled down to a LAN with an ad-hoc expo that just doesn't display anything worthwhile. Sure, there are stands demonstrating new things such as Kinect and Move, but the exhibitors just never seem to come to the party anymore. I'm also beginning to wonder if Tide Media is contemplating just taking the expo away and making it a rather large LAN.

Most not-for-profit organisations rely on volunteers for the delivery of a significant proportion of their programs and activities. These organisations have an obligation to ensure they support and manage their volunteers as they would paid staff. In turn, volunteers have a responsibility to:
Volunteers will often report that they experience far greater rewards from volunteer work than they had originally anticipated. While the benefits of volunteering vary depending on the aims and needs of the volunteer, there are common themes:
Softball Australia supports the ASC's guidelines on the rights and entitlements of volunteers, which include:
The Softball Australia Member Protection Policy applies as much to volunteers as it does to a player, official or anyone else involved with Softball. It covers issues such as:
In addition, Softball Australia encourages all those employing volunteers to comply with Volunteering Australia's National Standards and Implementation Guide for Involving volunteers in not-for-profit organisation.

Born circa 1610 in England (place unknown), Josias (sometimes written Josiah) Cooke was one of the seven settlers (1644-45) of an area of Harwich that later became Eastham. Before that he lived at Plymouth by about 1633 where he was admitted a Freeman in 1636/7. He is not related to Mayflower passenger Francis Cooke.
He married Elizabeth Ring who was baptized at Ufford, Suffolk on 23 Feb 1602/3, the daughter of William Ring and Mary Durant. Josias and Elizabeth were married at Plymouth, Mass., on 16 September 1635. It was Elizabeth's second marriage—she was the widow of Stephen Deane and daughter of widow Mary Ring.
Josias and Elizabeth had three children: Anna born about 1636 who married Mark Snow; Bethiah born about 1640 who married Joseph Harding; Josias/Josiah born in 1645 who married Deborah Hopkins. I descend from Josias and Deborah.
Josias was a tavern keeper—he was licensed to sell wine at Nauset on 7 June 1648 (Plymouth Court Records 2:125). He also served as Town Clerk, so had education sufficient to hold that position. Also, his inventory mentions two Bibles and other books.
Swift-Daley House built after Josias's time in 1741 |
In addition to Town Clerk, he served his community in many ways including: various juries, surveyor of highways, committee to divide land, committee to purchase land from the Indians, Deputy to the General Court, auditor of Treasurer's accounts, first Eastham Constable, and Selectman.
Josias is included in a variety of Plymouth Court Records. He paid money to support the children of Elizabeth from her first marriage; he had an altercation with Edward Doty that left him bloodied; he was a bondsman for William Hiller; he sued John Combes for a debt and was awarded 3 pounds; he sued John Smith for slander.
Josias held a considerable amount of land and he is included in multiple land transactions in Plymouth records, including purchases of land from Indians.
Josiah Paine wrote that Josias was a very energetic man and appears to have given much more attention to material things than his peers in the early settlement Eastham. He was an impulsive man and often in imbroglios with some of his neighbors of impetuous temperaments. Some information on his cases of litigation are on record. They are principally of a defamatory character and show unmistakably that Mr. Cooke had some very implacable neighbors, who delighted in giving him trouble, not caring whether their slanderous charges could be sustained or not. The many public positions he held in town from the settlement in 1645 to his death in 1673 show that he was a man that the majority of his townsmen had confidence in and respected. Of the religious life of Mr. Cooke there is nothing positive. It is inferred he was a member of the church.
Josias died 17 October 1673 at Eastham. Elizabeth survived him and died about 1687. His will was dated 22 Sept 1673 and proved 29 Oct 1673; he about 63 years of age. He left to his loving wife Elizabeth and son Josias his house, housing, meadow, uplands, and orchard. After his wife's decease he left his remaining movables to be divided equally among son Josias and daughter Bethiah Harding. He left his grandson Joseph Harding his land at Pochet Island; grandsons Josiah and Amaziah Harding received substantial upland and meadow at Plymouth near Cook's pond; grandchild Anna Snow received cattle; grandchild Steven Twining a musket that belonged to Steven's grandfather Deane; (step)daughter Meriam Deane a cow and five pounds, son Josias received his wearing clothes; grandson Josias Cooke received his rapier, belt and musket; grandsons Richard Cooke and Amaziah Harding land at Saconnett; his great Bible was left to grandson Richard Cooke.
The inventory of his estate was taken 20 Oct 1673 and totaled over 104 pounds without any real estate included.
Elizabeth Cooke's inventory was taken 3 May 1687 and totaled 15 pounds 7s. 7d.

Two events are scheduled for May 8, and it is in the best interest of the Mid-State Chapter to participate in these events, but we want our volunteer efforts to be strong at each event. We need your help!
The Adrian Hare Racer is an event that Mid-State Chapter volunteers help with, every year. We need to find volunteers to help with this great race!
The Island Lake Bike Demo is an MMBA event organized by the Potawatomi Chapter. All participating chapters are selling food for the event and the profits will be equally divided among the participating chapters. This is a great opportunity to raise money for the Mid-State Chapter; however, we must have five volunteers in order to be considered a participating chapter.
If you are interested in helping with either of these events, please leave a message in the comments section of this post, or visit our forum. Carpooling opportunities will most likely arise.

Rabbi Janet Marder has a surprising confession for someone who is making history as the first woman president of the Reform movement's 1,800-member Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR).
She's seriously shy.
"I had years of stage fright before I had to stand up in a crowd," said Marder, senior rabbi at Reform Congregation Beth Am in Los Altos Hills, near San Jose. "I still get pretty nervous."

Comment on this review
Excellent figure, especially as Elite Series
By Blackhemi1
from Miami, FL
Excellent figure by Mattel. Good likeness of Santino. It is impossible to reproduce all of his tattoos but this is as good as it gets. Worth getting in the Elite version because of the removable Cobra sock. Santino does not always get to pull it out of the singlet so this is much more realistic. Hopefully, my son doesn't lose the accessory.
love it

WWE Elite Santino Review
By JDL375
from Fishkill, NY
This is a very good figure of WWE Superstar Santino Marella. He is Elite style, so he has very many points of articulation. He has many very detailed tattoos, and even comes with his signature "Cobra" sleeve so kids can deliver Santino's finishing move, the Cobra strike, to all their other WWE figures. I would recommend this figure to any WWE fan.

Eighth Wonder of the WorldI recently watched a television documentary titled ``Sahara," which eloquently described the natural phenomena of searching for, fighting for, waiting for, and eventually being jubilant after finding water. The recent demise of Col. Muammar el-Gadhafi means the closure to the eight-month-long Libyan civil war. Two month ago, on Aug. 23, triumphant Libyan rebel fighters stormed Gadhafi's fortress in Tripoli, but the strongman was nowhere to be found. A few days later, it was reported hidden tunnels and bunkers were found under Gadhafi's compound. Some journalists hinted the tunnels might have been part of Libya's ambitious and massive water pipeline project, Great Man-Made River(GMR), once described by Gadhafi as the ``Eighth Wonder of the World." Earlier, in December 1997, the New York Times reported about the pipeline project with the headline reading ``Mysterious Libyan Pipeline Could Be Conduit for Troops." The enormity of the pipeline leads some to suspect that Gadhafi used part of the construction as a disguise to cover troop movements and military supplies. His previous disappearance gave new life to these speculations. Almost three decades ago, when Korea was a lesser known entity in the global arena, it embarked on a project that was to be coined by some to be the ``Eighth Wonder of the World." The GMR Project is the largest irrigation project known to modern man. This massive undertaking consists of thousands of kilometers of enormous underground pipelines designed to deliver millions of liters of much needed fresh water to millions of people and farmland in Libya. To give an idea of the scale of this endeavour, the Phase I pipeline of the GMR draws from aquifers in southern Libya, where some of these aquifers are up to 38,000 years old. This ``fossil water" is then pumped to a reservoir in Ajdabiya to be distributed Libya's northern coastal areas. In November of 1983, Korea's Dong Ah Construction Industrial and Korea Express were awarded the $3.8-billion contract for Phase I of the project. Dong Ah Consortium started the 1,874 kilometer pipeline in 1984 and completed Phase I in 1991. Dong Ah Consortium once again won the bid to work on this ambitious undertaking for Phase II in 1990 and the 1,730 kilometer pipeline was completed in 1996, and water became available in Tripoli. I was the director of the Overseas Market Development Department of Dong Ah Construction and a part of the team that won the bid for the GMR Project in 1983. And in 1994 as a senior member of Dong Ah Business Group Board of Directors I visited the GMR project site in Benghazi and Sarir in Libya to witness the monumental project with my own eyes. The project was not without its controversy, though. It has been in and out of the news for almost three decades. In the 80s when the project began, the sheer audacity of the scale made headlines. On Sept. 9, 1989 the New York Times published ``Bit by Bit, Life Gets Better for Libyans "... the Great Man-Made River project. Deep in Libya's deserts, oil explorers have found vast reserves of underground water. So pipelines are to be built, bringing water 965 kilometers across the desert to the coast, where water supplies are threatened with salinity. So far, the project has cost between $3 billion and $5 billion. But the overall cost, when completed with webs of irrigation for 37,000 wheat farms and sheep and cattle pasture, is estimated by some Westerners at $40 billion." Korea rose from the ashes of destruction, not in any small part due to aid from more developed nations. Korea has been fortunate enough to be able to reciprocate and assist lesser developed countries and has been a part of these efforts for many years. This aggressive undertaking has not only helped millions of people in northern Africa, but it also helped put Korea's construction prowess on the map. Korea has become a country that was once in great need to one that provides great services to those in need. Despite the recent damage to the pipeline in a NATO attack, water transfer to Tripoli and Benghazi has resumed and once again millions of people are enjoying clean drinking water. Korea is part of the most ambitious irrigation project of modern man and thanks to Korea's participation, clean water flows freely in Libya. Perhaps we will never know whether or not the true purpose of the Great Man Made River Project was to hide a dictator's military arsenal. But one thing is certain, through the efforts of leading industrial nations and with the hope of helping millions, the project is still, despite all the controversy and recent damage, delivering fresh drinking water to millions of people in Libya.

A 47-year-old male presented with a history of left foot pain, discomfort, difficulty standing and walking, and a sensation of "walking on marbles" for several months; he also was unable to fit his foot into his shoe. The patient's past medical history was significant for left foot sesamoiditis and remote surgical procedures on the left foot. A plain radiograph of the left foot showed mixed sclerosing dystrophy in addition to a "candle-wax-like" appearance and thickening of the cortices of the calcaneum, third through fifth metatarsals, and proximal phalanges. An MRI scan showed signal alteration and hypointensity on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences. A three-phase bone scan with Tc-99m-MDP scintigraphy demonstrated moderately intense uptake of the radiopharmaceutical localized to the left lateral foot, which corresponded to the sclerosing lesion seen on the plain radiographs and MRI.
Melorheostosis of the left foot.
The plain radiographs showed flowing hyperostosis and candle-wax-like thickening of the cortices involving the third through fifth metatarsophalangeal joints, proximal phalanges, and calcaneus of the left
foot. Three-phase bone scintigraphy demonstrated increased vascular flow and blood pool activity, with associated significant osseous uptake on delayed static images involving the lateral half of the left foot extending from the proximal metatarsophalangeal joints to the calcaneus. MRI showed hyperostosis with uniform hypointensity on all imaging sequences involving the calcaneus and third, fourth, and fifth digits. The pathology report confirmed the clinical and imaging diagnosis and revealed extensive bone remodeling showing both osteoclastic and osteoblastic activity, with associated ossification of fibrous tissue filling the trabecular space consistent with melorheostosis.
Melorheostosis is a rare form of mixed sclerosing bone dysplasia. The name is derived from the Greek term melos (limb) and rhein (to flow). In children, it is characterized by dense linear streaks, mostly in the inner cortex of the affected bones. In adults, irregular ossification is seen along the outer cortex, mimicking candle drippings. Patients with melorheostosis may develop secondary symptoms related to limitation of motion, joint fusion, or periosteal irritation.1,2 The etiology is obscure but Murry and McCreide3 suggested that an infection associated with nerve roots may be responsible for this rare condition. They found that the disorder most often involves one or more segmental sclerotomes, areas of a bone innervated from an individual spinal sensory nerve. This may in part explain the monomelic and linear track involvement and distribution of melorheostoses.
A well known feature of hyperostotic bone remodeling is its distinctive appearance, resembling wax melting and dripping down one side of a candle. Several cases of this sign have been reported from antiquity; the skeleton of a 50-year-old Alaskan Eskimo from the fifth century A.D. and a 25- to 30-year-old female dating back to 4000 to 5000 B.C. from Northern Chile both showed hyperostotic lesions resembling candle wax.4 Despite this characteristic feature, atypical presentations, particularly forme fruste lesions, raise uncertainties about the diagnosis. Forme fruste lesions are considered the mildest manifestation of this condition, which may only focally involve the bone (monostotic) and, as such, is difficult to differentiate from a focus of myositis ossifications or periosteal osteosarcoma.5
Melorheostosis can be found in all age groups but is most frequently diagnosed in young adults. Contracture of joints, fibrosis of soft tissue, and changes in the skin may be present at birth,6 but in these cases definitive diagnosis generally is delayed until osseous abnormalities appear. There is no sexual predilection in the disorder. In 70 to 80% of cases, melorheostosis is monomelic and affects one or more contiguous bones.7 It is more common in lower extremities and is usually appendicular. Other possible sites include the skull, spine, ribs, and pelvic bones.8,9 The disorder usually is asymptomatic in children; in adults, it presents with osseous complaints, usually beginning in the second and third decades of life. Occasionally, it may present with one or more palpable masses. Most of the clinical signs of the osseous dysplasia are associated with fibrosis, which is usually the cause for joint stiffness, angular joint deviations, contractures (mostly flexion), and other orthopedic problems.8,10 Skin pigmentation, scleroderma, and tuberous sclerosis-like thickening have been described.11,12 In rare instances, melorheostosis has been reported in association with tumors such as spinal column lipomatous osteosarcoma, and soft-tissue lesions such as desmoid tumor. Routine laboratory studies usually are unremarkable.
Histologically, sclerosis, soft-tissue fibrosis, and periarticular calcification may be seen, and though these may lead to bony ankylosis of the involved joint, none of these signs are pathognomonic of melorheostosis. Differential diagnosis for this condition includes osteomyelitis, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, neurofibromatosis, soft-tissue sarcoma, and metastatic lesions.
This patient's plain radiographs are characteristic (figure 1), showing wavy cortical hyperostosis which extends along the length of the bone, resembling flowing candle wax. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
(figure 2) features of melorheostosis include hyperostosis, which appears as uniform hypointensity on all imaging sequences. The Tc-99m-MDP three-phase bone scintigraphy image (figure 3) demonstrates moderate to severe increase in tracer in the early and late images, including soft-tissue and blood pool stages of scintigraphy.
The course of this condition is unrelenting; however, it does slow considerably in adulthood. Treatment usually is symptomatic, though surgical measures such as osteotomies, excision, capsulotomies, or tendon lengthening often are pursued.

New Article Underscores Need for Lupus Initiative to Address Racial Disparities Among Hispanics and Others of Color
Thursday, December 6, 2012
Greater awareness of lupus among physicians treating Hispanics is needed, confirming an article in Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine reviewing the scientific literature on lupus in this community. Lupus attacks Hispanics more often and more severely than Caucasians, according to several analyses, most notably the Lupus in Minorities: Nature versus Nurture (LUMINA) study. These findings further highlight the issue of racial disparities that the Lupus Research Institute (LRI) and our Coalition of patient groups nationwide have fought to bring to national attention. Conceived of by the LRI, the Lupus Initiative, is a collaborative project with the Offices of Minority Health and Women's Health, and the Surgeon General's Office and will be launching later this year. The professional education program will provide healthcare providers with the necessary training to better recognize and treat lupus in all populations including Hispanics.

This vacuum sure is neato.

Actually, the Neato performs much better then the roomba. Gets the job done about 4x faster, and picks up more.
And I thought tablets were the new roomba...

Neato >Roomba. Seriously, I love my little XV-12, Suckerpunch.
Woot, if we promise to be good will you take roomba back? We're not ready for a new mommy yet...
A Neato XV-12 All Floor Robotic Vacuum System? Who could have predicted it?
Best appliance I have ever bought! It's a Roomba with a brain. So close to buying another for upstairs.
no one wants these things...seriously woot...
I bought this vaccuum on woot a couple months ago and LOVE it. It's like a new pet that cleans up after another pet - a big, shedding dog.

I ordered one from Woot last week, after much agonizing and researching and reading reviews. According to all of that, the Neato seems to be superior to the Roomba. I can't wait to get mine. Hurry up and ship it, Woot! PS I'm very glad they aren't suddenly cheaper on this Woot-Off. That would have cured me of my Woot habit, I think.

Well it's worth $200 because there are always issues with these robot vacs.
No more vacuuuummmsss. We all own a half dozen dysons and robotic vacuums now. Now if it shot missiles or something neat like that I might be interested.

Oracle & JDBC – Passing a 'table of custom object type' to a stored procedure – implementing efficient single round trip data exchange (part two of an ADF application on a PL/SQL API)
5 years ago
One very efficient way of passing data from the Java application to the database is through the use of custom Oracle Types. Even when we want to send a heterogeneous data set, for example a data set with master and details records, custom type based objects can provide a powerful exchange of data. However, also one that is not extremely straightforward to get started with. In this article an example of how to send a TABLE OF MY_TYPE objects as an input parameter to a stored PL/SQL procedure.

|Return to Grand Rounds Index|
The incidence of malignant melanoma appears to be increasing at an alarming rate throughout the world. Some estimates show the global incidence to be doubling every 10 to 17 years. The incidence of melanoma in the United States alone increased by 80% from the years 1973 and 1980 One projection suggest that 1 in 90 Americans will develop melanoma by the year 2000. . Melanoma accounts for 65% of all deaths from skin cancer, reflecting its lethal nature. Fortunately, when detected early, it is a curable disease, with 95% cure rates for lesions less than .76mm in thickness. Because approximately 20% of melanomas originate in the head and neck, the otolaryngologist must be familiar with both cutaneous and mucosal melanoma. This grand rounds will summarize the risk factors, diagnosis and staging of melanoma and address some of the controversies in the treatment of melanoma of the head and neck.
The mortality from melanoma increases as one approaches the equator suggesting that sunlight is a risk factor for the development of cutaneous melanoma. Migration studies have also suggested that sunburn in childhood or adolescence is associated with higher rates of melanoma and this may represent a critical period for ultraviolet exposure . However, the relationship between melanoma and sun exposure is not a simple one. The anatomic distribution of melanoma is different from squamous cell carcinoma, which is more clearly directly related to sun exposure and found on the head, neck and arms. Melanomas can occur anywhere on the body; even in areas never exposed to the sun. Also, if melanoma were directly related to sun exposure, the incidence should increase with age, with multiple primary melanomas occurring in elderly patients. This is clearly not the case with melanoma. Rates of melanoma in persons with outdoor occupations have also been shown to be relatively low. Also, the development of mucosal melanoma does not appear to be related to sun exposure at all. In general, the relationship of melanoma to sunlight is complex, and some have come to the conclusion that it is more dependent on intermittent exposure early in life, rather than simple cumulative exposure.
Approximately 70% of cutaneous melanomas arise in a preexisting mole, so a recent change in the shape, color or size of a mole is an important risk factor. large malignant "precursors" such as congenital nevi, dysplastic nevi, and lentigo maligna must also be considered risk factors and fair-skinned caucasians who do not tan well are at highest risk. Increasing age, immunosupression and a family history of melanoma are other risk factors.
Melanocytes arise from the neural crest tissue during early fetal development and then migrate to the skin and several other peripheral sites. They then reside primarily in the basal layer of the epidermis and synthesize melanin pigment, which protects against ultraviolet irradiation. Recent investigations using cell culture has enhanced our understanding of the biologic features of melanocytes and work in the areas of monoclonal- antibodies have identified antigens on melanocytes in all stages of tumor progression. It is hoped that such investigations could produce specific immunotherapy for melanoma in the future.
Melanoma may be classified histomorphologically as either superficial spreading, nodular, and lentigo maligna types. This once was given significant prognostic value, but, as explained later, the significance of morphology may have been overemphasized in the past. Approximately 50 to 80% of melanomas are of the superficial spreading type, in which the melanoma evolves from a radial growth phase into a vertical growth phase over a period of years. Nodular melanomas appear to evolve over a period of months, beginning in a vertical growth phase from the onset. Lentigo maligna melanoma occurs in later ages from a preexisting lentigo maligna on a sun-exposed area of the body.
As clinicians, we are faced with the task of differentiating malignant melanoma from a variety of nonmalignant lesions that may resemble melanoma. In general, even if the lesion appears benign, if a patient is concerned about a pigmented lesion, the lesion should be removed or biopsied and sent for pathology.
These nevi are called junctional because the nevus cells are located at the junction of the dermis with the epidermis. They are usually small, flat, nonpalpable, brown or black lesions that are the first to appear after birth. As the patient matures, the nevi often grows into the dermis, forming a intradermal nevus.
This is the common mole that occurs on the face and trunk. It is dark, elevated or even warty or pedunculated. The elevation is caused by the proliferation of cells in the dermis, elevating the epidermis. These lesions rarely transform to malignancy. H/5>Compound Nevus
This is basically a junctional nevus developing into a intradermal nevus. The center of the lesion is often elevated while the periphery is still in the junctional phase and appears flat. These lesions are often noticed during adolescence and cause concern due to their changing nature but rarely transform.
These nevi are present at birth and are classified as small, medium or giant. Giant congenital nevi have a reported 6-7% lifetime risk of malignant transformation.
Also known as Hutchinsons freckle, these lesions appear as a flat macule on the sun-exposed areas of middle-aged and older adults (mean age 65). It usually starts as a brown macule but may achieve various shades of pigmentation. The lesion represents an overgrowth of melanocytes at the dermal-epidermal junction and atypical melanocytes can extend far beyond the clinical margin, leading to a high recurrence rate after resection. Some consider this lesion melanoma-in-situ and feel the lesion will increase in size until it eventually invades the dermis and become lentigo maligna melanoma. Because there has never been a longitudinal prospective trial looking at the conversion rate to melanoma, the lifetime risk of conversion is unknown. The numbers quoted in the literature vary from as low as 5% to 30 - 50% but are essentially based on anecdotal experience. Epidemiological analyses are imprecise but suggest that the conversion rates are probably lower than the 30 to 50% rates often quoted.
Dysplastic nevi is a controversial term used to describe nevi that do not show typical features of common nevi. They are usually larger than typical nevi and show irregular color or borders. Dysplastic nevi were originally described in family pedigree studies that revealed a Melanoma Syndrome or Familial Atypical Mole and Melanoma Syndrome (FAM-M syndrome). Persons with this syndrome have a very high risk of developing melanoma. Those with a strong family history may approach 100%. In reality, these families are extremely uncommon so the incidence of sporadic dysplastic nevi in the general population is of greater concern. Unfortunately, the lack of clear criteria to diagnose a dysplastic nevi has led to a large amount of confusion and the 1992 NIH Consensus Conference recommended abandoning the term and using the clinical term atypical mole and the pathologic term nevus with architectural disturbance. Other lesions that may occasionally resemble melanoma include seborrheic keratoses, pigmented basal cell carcinomas, Kaposis sarcoma and blue nevus.
A biopsy of any suspicious lesion must be planned with the possibility of future treatment in mind. The incisions should be well thought out and an excisional biopsy should be performed if possible to allow the pathologist to examine the entire lesion. Curettage or shave biopsies have no place in the treatment of a suspicious lesion. If the lesion is too large to allow excisional biopsy, a punch or incisional biopsy incorporating normal tissue is adequate. Concerns over possible hematogenous dissemination with an incisional biopsy have led to several large studies which have failed to show a decrease in cure rate with incisional biopsy followed by a definitive surgical excision. The ideal pathology report should include the hisopahologic type (superficial spreading, nodular, lentigo maligna, acral), growth phase (radial vs vertical), depth of invasion, tumor thickness and the presence of lymphocytic invasion.
After the diagnosis of malignant melanoma is made, appropriate lab tests include a chest radiograph and liver enzymes, particularly alkaline phosphatase. This is adequate in those patients without symptoms suggesting distant disease because of the low yield of CT scans of the brain, liver and bone scans in patients with a normal chest radiograph and enzymes.
Once melanoma has been confirmed by biopsy, the tumor must be staged to determine prognosis and treatment. The risk of dying of melanoma has been correlated with the level of invasion so histologic staging systems have been developed by Clark (1969) and Breslow (1970). Clark staged by level of invasion:
Breslows staging system is based on tumor thickness:
Other histologic features that reflect a poor prognosis include high mitotic activity, microscopic satellites, ulceration, vertical phase growth.
The simplest and most common clinical staging system is a three stage system that is based on location of disease:
Because over 80% of newly diagnosed melanomas are Stage I, the American Joint Committee on Cancer proposed a new four-stage system of classification which combines the various pathologic aspects of melanoma and the TNM system. An overview:
In addition to tumor thickness, a number of other clinical prognostic factors deserve mentioning. Lesions of the scalp, hands and feet have a generally poorer prognosis. Older age and male sex also have been associated with poor prognosis.
The five year survival rates for stage I melanoma have been traditionally felt to differ according to subtype: lentigo maligna melanoma and superficial spreading melanoma were shown to have better survival rates (85-90%) than nodular melanoma (65%). However, the contention that lentigo maligna melanoma carries a more favorable prognosis has been challenged and multivariate analyses have not shown subtypes to be a major prognostic factor.
In the past, surgical excision with margins up to 5cm were accepted as treatment for Stage I melanoma. Recent studies have shown that smaller margins appear to adequate. Due to technical difficulties and problems with interpretation of atypical melanocytes, Mohs micrographic surgery for lentigo maligna and melanoma is controversial and should only be considered experimental at this time. A 1988 prospective study in the New England Journal of Medicine found similar rates of disease free survival in patients with lesions <2mm thick assigned to either 1cm or 3cm margins. There are several similar ongoing prospective trials but current recommendations include conservative margins (1cm) for thin lesions (<1mm) and more extensive margins (up to 3cm) for thicker lesions. Obviously, in the head and neck, important structures such as the eye may make extensive margins unacceptable and must be addresses on an individual basis.
Elective neck dissection in melanoma is exteremely controversial, to say the least and the literature is often conflicting. In general, lesions less than .76mm in thickness rarely metastasize (<2%), regardless of their location and an elective neck dissection is not indicated. Lesions 0.76 to 1.49mm in thickness develop regional mets in about 25% of cases and distant mets in about 8% of cases. In these cases, Medina recommends observation of the neck unless the lesion is associated with poor prognostic features such as nodular configuration, location on the scalp or neck or ulceration. Patients with melanomas 1.5mm to 3.99mm have a higher incidence of cervical mets (57%) but the incidence of systemic disease is still less than 15%. Several studies cite a benefit from elective lymph node dissection in these patients. In patients with lesions thicker than 4mm, the chance of distant mets is greater than 70% and lymph node dissection will not likely influence survival. In these cases, it should only be considered as a palliative procedure.
Neck dissection can also be considered a useful staging procedure in that patients with clinically negative necks with positive nodes histologically behave differently based on the number of positive nodes detected. Patients found to have less than three positive nodes behave similar to Stage I and II patients where prognosis is related to the thickness of the lesion. Patients with three or more positive nodes have a very poor prognosis.
The treatment of the neck in Stage III melanoma with palpable nodes usually requires surgical excision of the primary with a regional neck dissection. A radical neck dissection is usually necessary for extensive lymph node involvement but this is also controversial. Several studies have shown that modifications of the radical neck dissection do not affect survival, but these studies are retrospective in nature. Unfortunately, palpable disease in the neck carries a very poor prognosis, even with neck dissection (<20%). The majority of these patients develop distant mets but a surprising number (26%-34%) develop regional recurrences so adjuvant therapy may be considered.
Melanomas of the neck and face have a particular propensity to metastasize to the parotid so parotidectomy must often be combined with a neck dissection for lesions located on the temporal scalp, forehead or preauricular skin. A lesion of the posterior aspect of the scalp or neck often requires a posterolateral neck dissection, which removes nodes from the posterior triangle, suboccipital and retroauricular areas. This procedure may even be performed bilaterally with minimal morbidity.
Mucosal melanoma is more uncommon and usually more lethal than its cutaneous counterpart. 5 year survival rates range from 10% to 38%, but because there is a noted progressive decline over time, some have even regarded this disease as incurable. The average time of survival after diagnosis (about 3 years) has not significantly improved over the last 40 years, presumably due to the lack of early symptoms, rich blood supply leading to early metastasis and the difficulty in achieving wide surgical margins in the head and neck. Interestingly, mucosal melanoma does not appear to have any relationship to sun exposure.
The most common location in the head and neck is the nasal cavity, followed by the paranasal sinuses. In the oral cavity, the most common areas include the hard palate and the gingiva. The presenting symptoms are nonspecific and the diagnosis is often delayed. Approximately 50% of melanomas which arise in the nasal cavity show no obvious pigment. Interestingly, although pigmentation of the oral cavity mucosa is very common in blacks, melanoma of the oral cavity in blacks is extremely rare. Amalgam tattoos, which represent embedded material from dental work must often be distinguished from melanoma.
The specific staging system for cutaneous melanoma does not apply to mucosal melanoma as survival does not appear to be strongly related to depth of invasion. Treatment usually involves radical surgery and an elective neck dissection is usually not recommended. A recent article by Lee suggests that aggressive local control with surgery significantly affects survival with 45% 5-year survival rates. They also noted that that the disease is usually localized at presentation, local recurrence often occurs before the development of distant mets and that salvage surgery for local recurrence is extremely poor.
The dogma that melanoma is radioresistant has been recently challenged and there is renewed interest in the role of radiation therapy in melanoma. Megavoltage radiotherapy, using a small number of large doses of radiation (24 to 30 Gy in 4 to 5 treatments), was recently investigated at M.D. Anderson. They found locoregional control rates better than treatment with surgery alone and noted good compliance with fewer treatments and no side effects. Numerous studies are currently underway to further delineate the role of radiation therapy in melanoma.
Forty years ago, case reports of spontaneous regression and melanoma regression after blood transfusion sparked an interest in active specific immunotherapy. Melanoma-associated antigens and their associated antibodies have been identified with hopes of developing a specific melanoma vaccine . The search for a specific tumor antigen is an oversimplified endeavor to say the least but this appears to be the most promising area of adjuvant therapy research.

Detroit city council votes to increase top pay for city Water Department director
The next director of Detroit's Water and Sewerage Department might earn a quarter million dollars a year. The Detroit city council voted to increase the job's salary cap today by nearly $100 thousand. Councilwoman Sauntell Jenkins says the pay hike is needed to attract the 'best and brightest' candidates to fill the vacant position.
"So if we want to move forward and doing things right, we have to be willing to do what it takes to attract that talent. Because we're in competition with other municipalities."
Councilwoman JoAnn Watson voted against the salary cap increase. Watson says, since the council just approved a 9% water fee increase, now is not the time to approve a pay hike for the head of the water department.
"It's unconscionable to be paying the director of the water department a quarter of a million dollars when citizens can't afford to pay their basic water bills."
Detroit's mayor and the heads of three neighboring counties recently reached a deal two revamp oversight of the department which serves the needs of 4 million people living in southeast Michigan.
