ASCO Annual Meeting
June 3, 2012
A recent study by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) shows that chemotherapy after radiation therapy slowed the growth of anaplastic oligodendroglial tumors (a type of brain tumor). It also lengthened the lives of patients with this type of tumor, especially for those whose tumor was missing specific genetic material in chromosomes 1 and 19 (called 1p/19q co-deletions). Currently, most patients with this disease receive either chemotherapy or radiation therapy, but not both.
In this study, 368 patients with newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendroglial tumors who had not received treatment were given either radiation therapy alone or radiation therapy plus chemotherapy. Chemotherapy was given in six cycles or rounds with the drugs procarbazine (Matulane), lomustine (CeeNu), and vincristine (Vincasar).
For patients receiving the combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy, the time it took for the disease to worsen was about two years, compared with a little over a year for patients receiving only radiation therapy. In addition, patients receiving the combination treatment lived with their disease for about a year longer than those who received only radiation therapy. About 80 patients in this study had a 1p/19q co-deletion. These patients who received radiation therapy and chemotherapy were about half as likely to die from the disease as those who received radiation therapy.
What this means for patients
"From this study, it's clear that combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy can significantly improve survival for certain patients," explained lead author Martin Van Den Bent, MD, Professor of Neuro-Oncology at Erasmus MC - Daniel den Hoed Cancer Center in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. "Not only do we now have a better treatment - we also have a genetic marker that can help us determine which patients will benefit, allowing us to personalize treatment for this challenging disease."
Questions to Ask Your Doctor
- What type of brain tumor do I have? What does this mean?
- Will tests be done to find out if my tumor has any genetic changes?
- What is my prognosis (chance of recovery)?
- What are my treatment options?
- What treatment plan do you recommend? Why?
- Will radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these treatments be used?

The sounds of town criers rang out through Melksham on Saturday, as criers from across Europe descended on the town for an international contest.
It was organised by Melksham crier and Lions Club member Peter Dauncey, and coincided with a celebration of the club's 40th anniversary.
Some 17 town criers took part in the contest, including Trowbridge's Trevor Heeks and Willy Van Der Putte, from Ghent in Belgium.
Mr Dauncey said: "It went absolutely superbly, without a hitch at all. There was magnificent colour and display. We were delighted with it. We had 17 town criers in the end and 13 lady escorts."
The Kings Arms cup for best crier, sponsored by the Market Place pub, was awarded to Peder Nielson, from Bromyard, Herefordshire.
The competition was arranged alongside a family fun day organised by the Lions.
The crowds were entertained by the Enigma Baton Twirling team, kickboxing displays from Dragon's Lair gym, and maypole dancing from local schoolchildren.
Lions' activities chairman Simon White said: "It was very successful, we had some very positive feedback from people. My highlight was Mr Wilkins Shilling clog dancing, and the ATC Band.
"There were lots of people there in the morning, and it got even busier in the afternoon, and lots of people are already asking about the date for next year.
"This was the first time in a while we have done something like this – we have done fetes, midget car racing and fun days before, but not for quite a long time – and it's already being considered for next year."
The event raised about £1,400 for the Wiltshire Air Ambulance and other Melksham charities supported by the Lions Club.

Harrison soaking in first All-Star experience
MINNEAPOLIS -- Josh Harrison's family has had to deal with a bit of a conflict of interest.
After being born and raised in Cincinnati, their son has found his niche in the Major Leagues, with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
So when the Reds and Pirates square off, a fairly frequent occurrence as NL Central rivals, Harrison's family and friends have a choice to make.
"It's not as bad as you would think," Harrison said. "I know Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, the cities, just from football and everything, had a little rivalry. But you know going back -- it's a lot of proud people. They might be Reds fans, but when we come in town they at least throw on the Pirates hat. So it's pretty cool to go back to Cincinnati playing for the Pirates and still have the support.
"My immediate family roots for the Pirates. They're all Pirates. But people I went to high school with, you know, that grew up Reds fans -- they'll still be Reds fans. But when we play them, they're like, 'Well, if we got to lose to anybody …' They don't mind, just because I'm associated with the Pirates. It's kind of a win-win for me because I'm kind of converting some people to maybe being Pirates fans."
Has Harrison, who was one of this year's underdogs to make the All-Star roster, given any thought to the possibility of a homecoming next summer when Cincinnati is slated to host the Midsummer Classic?
"Honestly, when I was named, that was one of the first things that most people said was, 'Oh, you gotta make it next year,' you know, 'It's at home,'" Harrison explained. "But to be honest, I haven't really thought about it. I'm just trying to still enjoy this first one. I don't want to look too far in the future and miss something in the present."
Harrison deserves that chance to bask in the present. Why wouldn't he, after scoring an All-Star nomination from NL manager Mike Matheny despite not even starting the season until April 20?
Understandably enough, he's got a lot on his mind.
"I got here [to Minneapolis] and didn't know what to expect. I knew it was going to be here, be there, all over the place.
"But it's actually been pretty cool to see some of the other guys and talk to them about just certain things that have happened throughout the season and be on the same team as some of these guys who are some of the best players in the world."

Stream Protection Strategy
In 1998 Fairfax County initiated a countywide Stream Protection Strategy Program which entailed the sampling of all the major streams and tributaries throughout the county to assess stream water quality. The focus of this assessment was biological indicators of the ecological health of streams which included aquatic insects and fish, fecal coliform, some chemical parameters and habitat assessment of several physical characteristics. The main purpose of the Stream Protection Strategy Program is to better understand the degree of stream degradation, to formulate measures to effectively reverse negative trends, identify and prioritize areas with the greatest needs and recommend targeted stream preservation and restoration.

There is a 10.4 update for windows as well. What's new in that?
Good I suppose, but I don't understand why they couldn't have included iTunes 10.4 in the installation of Lion
Now if thy would only get 64bit support for Windows XP. I can't believe them idiots never made a version for that. That's the computer that I have all my free hard drive space on and can't use the home sharing from my apple TV.
Interesting how there's been 64 bit windows version for a while but only now there's one for mac
Also worth noting that the entire iLife has gotten an update enabling fullscreen, as has iWork.
If you answer NO to any other those questions, then STFU.
What do you hope to achieve by having a fully 64bit iTunes? Your music to sound better?
64bit is the only way to go, for ALL programs. I can envision a day when all that 32bit crap finally dies, and on that day I will pop open a champagne bottle and toast to its demise, laughing.
The only idiot is the one who hasn't upgraded their OS yet.

Ken Wenman, the boss of the new, enlarged ambulance service serving Wiltshire, believes it will lead to improved performance for patients.
Great Western Ambulance Service (GWAS) merged with South Western Ambulance Service Foundation Trust today.
The new ambulance service, called South Western, will serve a resident population of more than 5.3 million plus an estimated annual influx of 17.5 million tourists.
It covers Wiltshire, Avon, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Dorset, Devon, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The head office is in Exeter.
The merger has taken 14 months to conclude and Mr Wenman said in that time performance at GWAS had improved.
Mr Wenman, chief executive of South Western, said: "Since South Western has been working with GWAS we have moved from GWAS being one of the poorest performing ambulance trusts to last week being the best ambulance trust in the country on response times for Category A8 (life threatening) calls. We have spent a lot of time looking at how we deploy our ambulance resources and sending the right resources to incidents."
The service employs about 4,000 people and Mr Wenman said all staff from GWAS had transferred under their same terms and conditions.
He said the jobs of clinical front line staff were protected but there would be a reduction of about 20 posts in administration and management. Consultation with affected staff has started and will take five months.
Jenner House, on Langley Industrial Estate, Chippenham, which is the headquarters of GWAS, will close in December and staff relocated to other offices.
He said there were no plans to close ambulance stations and in fact a new ambulance station will be built to replace the existing one at Malmesbury Road, Chippenham.
Mr Wenman said the benefits of merging the two ambulance services included economies of scale to obtain better value in buying medical equipment and ambulances. As a Foundation Trust, South Western will be able to use surplus money to reinvest in services.
The new ambulance service will have to make efficiency savings ordered by the Department of Health of £10 million a year.
The Wiltshire emergency control room based at Wiltshire Police's headquarters in Devizes will close in March saving £700,000 a year and 999 calls will be answered at its control room at Bristol.
Although the GWAS name will disappear Mr Wenman said the only replacement signage will be at the 34 ambulance stations in the GWAS area, which will cost £4,500.
He said changing the name on ambulances and other things would not take place for several years as the total cost of replacing the name would be £260,000.
Jo Fowles, secretary of the GWAS branch of Unison, said the union cautiously supported the merger.
She said: "For the majority of staff such as ambulance crews and paramedics it's business as usual and we expect members of the public will see very little difference from the service. However, it is a period of uncertainty for many staff, particularly those who work in back office functions who will be worried if their jobs are at risk."

SWINDON pool duo Nigel Olding and Jason Godbeer had a successful weekend at the Eight-Ball Pool Championships in Blackpool last week.
Olding was part of the victorious England A seniors team that took the World Seniors Team crown. England saw off Australia in the semi-finals and and then convincingly beat Malta 5-1 to take the title.
Godbeer came through three rounds to reach the the quarter-final of the men's seniors competition. The 147 player eventually lost 7-4 to Australian Steven Gray, who had earlier beaten Olding in the second round and would go on to finish runner-up.

Fingerling Potatoes and Goat Cheese Fondue
If fingerling potatoes are unavailable, you may substitute other small potatoes such as red bliss.
- Servings: 14
Source: Martha Stewart Living, September 1999
- 2 pounds fingerling potatoes (30 to 40)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces soft goat cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup nonfat buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 bunch of chives, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- Chervil, for garnish
Place fingerling potatoes and salt in a large saucepan with enough cold water to cover generously. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and drain potatoes in a colander. Transfer potatoes to a platter; set aside.
Place goat cheese and buttermilk in a heat-proof bowl or the top of a double boiler, and place over a pan of simmering water. Warm mixture, stirring until it is very smooth, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in pepper, chives, thyme, tarragon, and parsley. Place in the bowl of a small fondue pot or in a warm serving bowl; serve immediately with fingerling potatoes garnished with chervil.

THEY might be kicking mummy's tummy instead of pushing pedals, but Jennifer Purcell's unborn second child is set to become the youngest-ever Sky Rider in the country.
Jennifer, 34, of Wroughton, will be putting her cycling experience to use when she leads out several of the Sky Rides organised for this June in Swindon.
Thirty-five rides of varying distances will take place on Sundays from June to September, but Jennifer will restrict herself to the first month only, with the child due later this summer.
"The Sky Rides will be fine – I chose June dates, so there's still plenty of time before my due date," she said.
"But we are going to watch the Tour de France in Yorkshire with all the family at the start of July.
"I just hope all the excitement with Bradley Wiggins being back in action doesn't make the baby come early. Either way, we've already got a few names in mind."
Jennifer's first child, the aptly named Ryder, two, has taken on his mother's obsession for cycling, and he too will take to the trails in June as a Sky Rider.
"Cycling already runs in the family because Ryder loves it as much as us and he will be coming along for the rides," said Jennifer, who is a publicity officer at Bradon Forest School.
"We thought we'd get our next one into it early, so they know what to expect.
"We don't know whether it's a boy or a girl, but we're going with Sprocket for now – after their brother who we nickname Rocket."
Registration is now open for the 35 rides, which are organised by British Cycling and Sky in partnership with Swindon Council.
The rides are free of charge. Go online at www.goskyride.com for information.
Every weekend, the Purcell family can be seen out on their bikes making the most of the many cycle paths in Swindon.
Jennifer said: "Having a family hasn't stopped us biking – we all get out and do it together. There are loads of fantastic routes around Swindon, you can get almost anywhere completely on cycle paths.
"Cycling is a way of life and we wouldn't change it for the world."
When Jennifer fell pregnant with her second child, she didn't want her cycling to take a back seat.
"I hope to keep cycling right up until the end as it's great exercise and also takes the weight off your feet," she said.
Determined to encourage more women, including mums, to give cycling a try, Jennifer is also leading a range of rides in Swindon called Back Seat Riders, part of the Breeze Network cycling initiative to encourage more women to try recreational cycling.
These rides vary in distance from four to seven miles and start from a variety of places, but always feature a tea shop.
They are ideal for beginners or mums who have baby seats or trailers for their little ones.
She said: "They are designed just for women and you can come along, even if you don't feel very confident.
"The rides are ideal to help overcome that and we have a great time along the way.
"We have a good gossip and it's a brilliant way to get fit – what's not to like?"

The amygdala is a small part of the brain, adjacent to the hippocampus, that is believed to react most directly to emotions. From studies using brain scans, it has been shown that events that stimulate the amygdala are remembered better over time. This may be why emotionally significant events are remembered better than emotionally insignificant events.
Because the amygdala is involved heavily with emotions, it is believed to play a role in conditions such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and phobias.

British bank Standard Chartered will pay the United States $US327 million to settle charges it violated US sanctions on Iran as well as on Myanmar, Libya and Sudan, the US Treasury announced Monday.
US authorities said the bank had stripped messages on financial transfers routed through US banks of information that would show the beneficiaries were businesses and entities that fell under US sanctions.
The fines from the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and other US federal and local regulators took to $US667 million the total the bank has been charged for sanctions violations.
In August the New York state banking watchdog fined Standard Chartered $US340 million in the same investigation, saying it hid 60,000 transactions with proscribed Iranian clients worth $US250 billion over 10 years.
"Today's settlement is the result of an exhaustive interagency investigation into Standard Chartered Bank's attempts to violate US sanctions programs through the 'stripping' from payment messages of critical information," said OFAC Director Adam Szubin in a statement.
The sanctions avoidance involved mainly the bank's London head office and its branch in Dubai, which masked the details of messages so US authorities would not see the real identity of those sending and receiving the payments.
"As a result, millions of dollars of payments were routed through US banks for or on behalf of sanctioned parties in apparent violation of US sanctions," OFAC said in a statement.
OFAC added that the fine also covered eight apparent violations of US sanctions on druglords.

KERRY Ellis is a leading West End lady. Having performed in some iconic shows and sung alongside Brian May, she is appearing in a smaller scale show of Rent in Concert during a 15 date tour, where she will also be taking along her three-month-old son.
I spoke to Kerry a little later than planned, but that is no surprise as she is a new mum to a baby boy called Alfie. She laughed that everything takes her that little longer in the morning. But being a new mum has not put her off going on tour.
She will return to the role of Mimi in the smash-hit musical, Rent, which she performed in last year. Set in New York city it is about falling in love, finding your voice and living for today.
Kerry, 34, said: "I am taking Alfie with me. He is at a portable age. It is 15 dates.
"I can have him with me, which is one of the perks of the job we do.
"I am quite free during the day. I can be a mum during the day and do the show in the evening.
"My parents are retired- they are going to come on a two week jaunt with me.
"It will be great."
She said her partner has the short straw and will be staying at home in Hatfield in Hertfordshire. So what attracted her away from the West End to do this show?
Kerry said: "It is a concert version. You get a lot for your money- costumes, set, a band on stage.
"We do pretty much the entire show apart from some of the dialogue.
"It is quite raw, quite fresh and I think real. "It is very real and very honest. People really enjoy it. The music is fantastic and people love the music.
"This is really quite simple- it takes it back to basics.
"I have been in some massive productions. It is fantastic to go back to something simplistic which is about the storyline, dancing, songs and the characters."
She said she loves the music in the show and gets to sing some great songs, including her favourite, Without You. Kerry got her first West End break in 2001 as Martine McCutcheon's understudy in the role of Eliza Doolittle.
After meeting Queen guitarist Brian May in 2002, she took on the role of Meat in the original London cast of We Will Rock You.
From there she has played lead roles in West End musicals Les Misérables, Wicked and Oliver! as well as appearing in national tours and concert productions of musicals like Miss Saigon, Chess and The War of the Worlds.
Kerry released a studio album in 2010 called Anthems, which was produced by Brian May with a 70 piece orchestra, and a live album Acoustic by Candlelight in 2013.
She has performed with Brian on numerous occasions and has also toured with him. I asked her if she ever gets starstruck?
She said: "Lots of times. Probably when I met Liza Minnelli, the first time I met Brian- he's pretty big. I have been very lucky to meet a lot of people.
"They always seem to be very nice. It took me a little while to talk to Liza Minnelli.
"She came over to me and said hello and I nearly fell on the floor.
"There are lots of people. I have been very fortunate to work with a lot of male musicians.
"It would be really nice to work with a strong female, like Liza Minnelli."
She grew up in Suffolk and appeared in amateur dramatics before attending Laine Theatre Arts from the age of 16.
Kerry said she feels old when she looks back at what she has been in.
But adds: "It is great. It is only when I start talking about it I realise how much I have done."
Go to www.kerryellis.com for more details about Kerry and her latest Pledge album. Rent in Concert is at the Wycombe Swan on February 4 at 7.30pm. Tickets are £22.50 to £32, which includes a booking fee. Concessions are £3 off. Go to www.wycombeswan.co.uk or call 01494 755096.

Agyness Deyn's Dr. Martens Collection
The British model will design a capsule collection for the brand later this year.
Another day, another model tries out her fashion-designing training wheels. After putting her best face forward in their last two ad campaigns, Agyness Deyn will design a capsule collection for Dr. Martens which will hit stores later this year. The collection will consist of clothing, accessories and, of course, shoes. We couldn't really have picked a better brand for the British lass to design for, especially after seeing her reminisce over her first break-up in Dr. Martens 'First and Forever' Fall Campaign last year. Agyness told The Cut that the label is a great fit for her because they stand "for strong character and being able to shape your own personal identity." Check out some photos of Aggy getting out and about in her Docs below.

GARDEN GROVE – A suspicious activity call, a ladder propped against a building and a short foot chase led Garden Grove police officers to recover about $20,000 worth of marijuana and arrest a man suspected of burglarizing a Garden Grove dispensary, police said.
An officer was answering a suspicious activity call around 2:25 a.m. when he spotted two men with a step ladder against the wall of the Just Quality Care dispensary in the 8800 block of Garden Grove Boulevard, said Garden Grove police Sgt. Otto Escalante.
After a short foot chase, the two men jumped into a vehicle a short distance from the crime scene, Escalante said.
One suspect, a man between 20 and 25, was caught in the vehicle and was arrested, he said. Officers found about 26 pounds of marijuana in the vehicle's trunk with an estimated street value between $20,000 and $26,000, Escalante said.
The second suspect remained at large, he said.

Southwest Employees will be encouraged to Share the Spirit by participating as judges in the regional NFTE competitions throughout the country, where local students present business plans and compete against peers for seed capital. Regional winners will then have the unique opportunity to receive feedback on their plans from Southwest Executives as they prepare for NFTE's 2011 National Business Plan Competition and Awards Gala in New York City, in October 2011.
"We relish in the opportunity to support students who take their education to new heights. NFTE teaches students how to soar in entrepreneurship, which is an invaluable community partnership for Southwest Airlines. Who knows? One day, Southwest may be investing their products." said Karen Price-Ward, Community Affairs & Grassroots Manager.
"We're thrilled to announce Southwest Airlines as the official airline and a proud partner of NFTE," Steve Mariotti, founder of NFTE. "This partnership will help bring at-risk students closer to realizing their dreams by expanding their horizons and enabling them to participate in entrepreneurial events and competitions outside of their regions. For many, Southwest will be helping many students take their first 'business trip' to present their winning business plans on a national level in New York City."
NFTE is a global 501(c) 3 non-profit and a pioneer in providing entrepreneurship education programs to young people from low-income communities.

After some serious background work to this site, I was finally able to upload and a new photo today. For print purchase information please see here: http://www.andredistel.com/project/sacred-grounds/
The shot was taken at the famous site of Machu Picchu. We went in October 2010 which by coincidence was also the year of Machu Picchu's 100th birthday or its re-discovery. A place often seen on photos and were almost every photographer wants to go at least once in their lifetime. However, getting there is not as easy as you may think, except you are willing to pay big time for a tour group. We decided to travel on somewhat of a budget to Machu Picchu and not depend on the tour group times that tell us when to come and go. We like to explore and have a bit of an adventure around the trip. For everybody trying to get there but looking for a how-to, I am going to outline some basic steps and give some detail. If you want to know more specifics, please feel free to comment and ask. I am more than happy to help you out.
Before getting to Machu Picchu, you have to get to Peru. Depending on where you are coming from, you will most likely end up in Lima. If you are on a really tight budget and coming up from Chile you can also take the bus to Arequipa and then fly or continue with the bus the Cuzco. However, most international and overseas flights land in the morning, so if you are really desperate to get there you can push on to Cuzco with another flight within one day. However, I do recommend staying in Lima at least one day to catch your breath and enjoy the upcoming trip to Cuzco.
When you land in Lima, make sure, you have a pick-up service arranged with your hotel. Hold on to your bags and I recommend not to let them carry by someone else. We felt uncomfortable in the craziness of Lima airport, maybe simply because we are not used to this. As far as hotels go, I can recommend the Peru Star Hotel. Privately owned and you can find it on Tripadvisor. Great room service, good area, great rooms and very fair prices ($60 / night).
From Lima you somehow have to get to Cuzco. You have two basic options. Flying or busing all the way. If you plan to do more flights within South America, check out the LAN South America pass. Flights within Peru will then only cost you something like $100 round-trip / person. Bus will be slightly cheaper but you will lose one more day getting there. And vacation time is more expensive than a few bucks for a flight. There are several airlines going to Cuzco on any given day. However, try to fly before noon. Afternoon flights may get cancelled due to high winds in Cuzco. The aircraft has to land at about 3,300m, which is not always possible. Same goes for the flight out of Cuzco. Try to catch an earlier flight. I recommend flying LAN, simply because they have the most flights in and out of Cuzco. Do yourself a favor and arrive 3hrs prior to your scheduled flight in Lima. The airport is usually very chaotic, hectic and full. It is not uncommon that people miss their flights here. Once landed in Cuzco, you will find that most people get picked up by a tour agency. Well, we didn't but did some research before and figured we could do it on our own for less than that. If you have the time, you can also stay in Cuzco to acclimatize to the altitude. We were short on time and pushed on to Aguas Calientes the same day.
In Cuzco, you have basically not other choice but to use one of the over-priced airport taxis, but you can be pretty sure, they are safe and reliable. Just tell the driver you want to go to Paradero Pavitos. That's the place from where the collectivos leave from Cuzco to Ollantaytambo. It looks like a backyard but it's actually not too bad and a very inexpensive way to get to Ollanta. I think we paid around 4$ / Person for 1 1/2 hrs taxi ride. Arriving in Ollanta, we bought some food for the next few days, went for an early dinner to one of the restaurants and stored our luggage at the hotel at the train station, where spend a night coming back from Machu Picchu. It is neat little town – much nicer than Aguas Calientes. Later that day, we boarded our train to Aguas Calientes and checked in at the hotel La Cabana. It was late, about 10:30pm but we were picked up at the train station from one of the people at the hotel. After a short nights sleep, we got up again at 4:30am to catch the first shuttle bus up to Machu Picchu. Most hotels start serving breakfast at around 5am. Make sure, to arrive early at the shuttle bus station as people line up early. We got into the third bus and arrived together with the first two buses at the gates of Machu Picchu.
Machu Picchu was beyond my expectations. I have read and heard much about it, but standing there and seeing how huge it actually is, blows your mind. In the early morning hours, you will have the chance to see the mystic fog laying over Machu Picchu. To get into Machu Picchu, you have to buy your tickets online as of August 2011. Also, if you can, buy tickets to hike Huyana Picchu. It is strenuous but well worth it. It takes about an hour to get up there and and hour to hike down. We did the extended tour around the mountain to the lower parts and that was just cruel. Steps after steps, with almost no one around in the jungle. After such a long trip and not much sleep the days before, we were exhausted by the time we got back to Machu Picchu. At noon, the place is flooded with visitors and has lost almost its magic – at least for me.

KEITH Andrews could be out of action for more than a month with a torn thigh muscle.
The Irishman had already endured an injury-plagued campaign, requiring pain-killing injections before being able to take his place in midfield earlier this season because of an Achilles problem.
Now it has been revealed that a related thigh problem is likely to keep him on the sidelines until late March.
"Keith had been struggling with his Achilles and carrying the injury," Freedman explained.
"I'm guessing, because I don't know about the recovery (timescale), but with the torn thigh we could now be looking at a month or six weeks to get the problem sorted."
Andrews was voted the Republic of Ireland international player of the year earlier this week but has not featured for Wanderers since limping out of the goalless draw at Crystal Palace on January 19, missing the FA Cup replay against Everton and the defeat at Watford last weekend.
Freedman has also confirmed that young full-back Joe Riley will be missing for a month after scans revealed a small fracture in his foot.
Initial examinations suggested the youngster had only suffered severe bruising to his foot, but the player confirmed earlier this week that a fracture had been found.
"It's disappointing for the kid because he's had a difficult time," the manager said.
"He had worked his way back and was starting to come into the first team."

Medical Definition of Scoliosis, nonstructural
Scoliosis, nonstructural: A structurally normal spine that appears to have a lateral curve (scoliosis).
Nonstructural scoliosis involves a temporary change of spinal curvature. This is caused by an underlying condition such as a difference in leg length, muscle spasms, or inflammatory conditions, (e.g. appendicitis), which may produce muscle spasm.
Correcting the underlying problem treats this type of scoliosis. The spine itself needs no treatment.
Nonstructural scoliosis is also called functional scoliosis. This is in contrast to structural scoliosis in which there is a fixed curve of the vertebrae (the bones of the spine).

COMMEMORATIONS to mark the beginning of the war to end all wars have started.
Residents are invited to take part in a series of special events with services and lights out ceremonies including poetry, music and art across Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch.
Great War activities began in Poole yesterday with the arrival of D Day veteran, former RN coastal defence boat HMS Medusa returning to its home port.
It was escorted into the harbour by Arry Paye, the 30ft long gig rowed by seven crew and will be arriving between 3pm and 4pm to be moored at Poole Quay over the weekend.
Tomorrow residents are welcome to join Poole Mayor, Cllr Peter Adams for a Civic Service at St James Church at 4pm, led by the Bishop of Sherborne, the Rt Rev Dr Graham Kings.
Afterwards servicemen, ex-servicemen and uniform groups will parade down Thames Street to the Guildhall.
On Monday August 4 there will be an open air Civic Service at the Pier Approach in Bournemouth at 10.45am with veterans organisations and others remembering all who lost their lives in WWI.
At 10pm the national Lights Out ceremony will be observed at a candlelight event at Bournemouth's War Memorial in the gardens, while at Poole Park the war memorial will be lit by poppies in a light and sound display by local artist Martin Coyne.
In Christchurch there will be a ceremony from 8pm to 10pm at Saxon Square with a programme of poetry, music and art.
"The First World War changed the world, so it is absolutely right that 100 years on we put remembrance at the heart of our centenary commemorations," said Cllr Adams.
"Everyone is invited to take part in Lights Out by turning off their lights from 10pm to 11pm on August 4, leaving a single light or candle. Whether you choose to mark the centenary of the outbreak of WWI individually or join us in Poole Park for our Lights Out event we hope you take a moment to reflect on this historic and world changing event."

MIAMI, Fla. - It's the time for season's greetings and lots of over-eating. With all the holiday parties and family get-togethers, the temptation to indulge can be overwhelming. But we're here to help keep your diet off the naughty list!
From jingle bells to jiggly bellies, the holidays can wreak havoc on your waistline. Staying fit can be a tough task.
Personal trainer Shuichi Take says it's all about balance. So start your day with some exercise.
"By doing your workout in the morning, you actually boost your metabolism during the course of the day," he explained.
Four simple exercises, 20 seconds each, six to 10 reps "gets your heart rate higher, you burn more calories," said Take.
Don't skip meals. Shuichi says starving yourself now doesn't mean you can pack in more calories later.
Shuichi explains that, "You tend to overeat at that meal because you are overcompensating for the lack of meals earlier that day."
If hunger strikes look for protein-filled snacks that make you feel full like beef jerky or, "almonds are great, or string cheese, or even deli meat," suggested Take.
Try to resist that eggnog; just eight ounces has 360 calories. Swap it for hot chocolate and save 250 calories. When toasting, remember regular beer or a mixed cocktail can each cost you 200 calories or more.
Can't pass up on finger foods? Leave the 400 calorie crab cakes behind, and reach for shrimp cocktail instead; it has just 200 calories.
"You may want to go with something a little bit lighter like, for example, a glass of wine or a glass of champagne, which is maybe closer to about 100 calories," said Take.
Shuichi says it can be hard to be good this time of year so don't feel too bad if you break the rules occasionally.
"Allow yourself to indulge with your friends and have a good time, afterwards get back on track," Take recommended.
If sugar is what you're craving, grab a candy cane! This famous holiday treat has only 55 calories. Another tip: save the best for last! Instead of depriving yourself of your favorite foods, fill up on less fattening snacks throughout the party. Odds are you'll still eat the treat you've waiting been for, but you will be less likely to binge on it.
Additional Information:
HOLIDAY WEIGHT GAIN: Many people feel that they gain extra weight over the holiday season with the large meals, holiday parties, and the stress that comes along with the holidays. The holiday season lasts from mid-November into early or mid-January and it is typically thought that during this time people will gain an average of five pounds. However, several studies over the years have found that on average people do not gain five pounds during the holidays but rather only one pound. One of these studies by the New England Journal of Medicine also found that weight gain did not increase during the pre-holiday period (late September to early October) or during the post-holiday period (mid-January to early March); weight gain only seems to increase during the holidays. The reason it may seem as though a person gains more than a single pound during the holidays is because the weight typically stays on and continues to be built upon. (Source: www.nejm.org)
HOLIDAY HEALTH TIPS: If you want to try to keep the weight off this holiday season here are some more tips to stay healthy during the holidays without sacrificing all of the food:
- Never go to a Party Hungry – If you're starving when you get to a holiday party you may end up overeating and letting the hunger take over.
- Avoid Sauces – Popular holiday sauces such as gravy, sauces made from cream, and salad dressings will add a lot of extra calories. Try oil and vinegar for salads.
- Use a Smaller Plate and Eat Slowly – You're less likely to pile on more food than you need if the plate cannot hold it all and eating slowly will help you avoid overeating and will allow you to enjoy the food you do eat.
- Eat Less and Socialize More – If you focus on talking with friends and family during holiday parties and dinners then food won't be the focal point of the celebration and you can resist eating to pass the time. (Source: www.clevelandclinic.org)

"Even the Intelligent Design people don't want to claim them as being created by some extrinsic force. They are simply selected."
Prof. Peter Doherty, Immunologist and Nobel Laureate, Interview broadcast 16 Jan 2006, ABC (Australia) Classic FM
Editorial Comment: Peter Doherty's statement exposes the weakness of both the Intelligent Design Movement and evolutionary theory. The I. D. people can't explain viruses because they don't like the idea of a designer who would deliberately make destructive parasites. The evolutionists are no help because the claim that viruses were "simply selected" only explains what happened to them after they appeared amongst living things. It does not explain where viruses came from. Viruses are not a problem for Biblical Creation, which tells us the Creator made all things good, but the world has been corrupted because of human sin and judgement, so viruses are the degenerate victims of sins curse, as much as the humans who currently host them. (Ref. quotes, microbes, diseases)

Aren't moms great? Who else always has your back when the chips are down?
One thing that has made my mother so clutch throughout the years is her obsessive attention to detail, which often results in edible care packages for a busy son.
So today, as my mother and other baby boomers sit and watch Uncle Sam possibly destroy dedicated years of retirement planning, I plan on paying homage by offering investors a tidy fiscal cliff care package.
To Feed the Fiscal Cliff Concern
- In terms of strategy on this epic day, I strongly suggest doing nothing. Don't bother researching a company's 2007 10-K and dot-connecting on 2015 potential earnings power. Forget trying to be a stock trading superhero by buying on fiscal cliff rumors. Today is all about watching the insanity from afar and being prepared to strike (sort of like the ratings agencies).
- Roughly 5 million households generate between $200,000 to $500,000 in annual wage income. These supposed job creators will be harmed in various ways (a sense of being picked on and classified as the ax of the tax man becomes sharper) by their elected officials, which makes one wonder about the direction of employment by the middle stages of 2013 (component reads on employment in regional manufacturing and consumer confidence are not too encouraging).
- Payroll shock is coming in the second Friday in January. It's in our DNA to deny something that will cause us harm until the moment of reckoning arrives. I am growing concerned on there being an economic data cliff in January, created by the improved month-on-month trends logged in December that seemingly vanish due to December's political shenanigans. If you believe in the efficient market hypothesis, then this economic data cliff theory should not seem far-fetched and is unlikely factored into stock valuations.
- The savings rate of consumers will probably head lower in the first half of 2013, a true after-effect of Keynesian stimulus pumping up wage income and the general standard of living. When consumers dip into their precious savings, it's usually allocated to needs rather than wants, and that suggests an economy not operating at full capacity.
- Average tax refunds will shrink and with that purchases driven by credit card leverage in the initial part of 2013. Politicians are charting a path to fundamentally altering longheld consumer traditions.
At a time like this, I am reminded of an age-old proverb passed on to me by a mentor: "Price is truth. Respect it." Indeed, it stinks being so miserable on the markets while wielding a do-nothing mantra. Back in the day, I used to believe that a compelling fundamental story and an attractive P/E ratio on a company, regardless of market sentiment, would be enough to weather any storm. The fine-tuned, semi-jaded me now thinks otherwise and will let the market dictate when it's clear to wade into the fiscal cliff's muddy waters.
Friendly Assorted Reminders
- Perpetual Washington political games warrants embedding a slightly higher risk premium into any stock you are modeling.
- Do not be suckered into thinking dollar stores benefit disproportionately by the impending sharp first-half 2013 growth slowdown. These companies are already having unfavorable sales mix trends, and they will be made worse as their customer base purchases less.
- On the horizon lays this event: a lame piece of fiscal cliff legislation that, although handing modest headline relief to stocks, will coincide with less-than-stellar sets of comments from corporate America during earnings season. January is teed up to be brutal, and we might have to reposition our portfolios as earnings season nears. Further, the sentiment could dent the typical investor interest in prior-year underperformers as the New Year begins.

When you're a dark horse smartphone vendor that's betting the farm on a cutting-edge developer platform, hiring one director of developer relations apparently isn't enough. Last week, Mozilla Labs alums Dion Almaer and Ben Galbraith announced that they would jointly assume the role at Palm -- not a moment too soon, it appears, because Palm WebOS developers must surely have questions. Chief among them: Why should developers keep writing apps for a smartphone platform that has just been blackballed by the largest mobile carrier in America?
Verizon Wireless was widely expected to be the second carrier to offer the well-received Palm Pre handset once Palm's exclusive deal with Sprint expired, but insiders say those hopes are now dashed. Low sales are at least partly to blame: According to reports, the Pre has yet to move 1 million units at Sprint since its launch in early June. More troubling for Palm, however, must be the rumors that Verizon ultimately chose to pass on the Pre because WebOS didn't jibe well with the carrier's own developer plans.
[ While Verizon tries to genericize mobile platforms, Apple may have handed over the mobile business market to the BlackBerry, suggests InfoWorld's Bill Snyder. ]
Palm's model for success is Apple. It's banking that WebOS will be compelling enough to keep customers buying Palm-branded handsets. But Verizon has little use for that; it would prefer a smartphone market that more closely resembles the mainstream PC market. In Verizon's vision of the future, handsets are commodities, applications are uniform across all devices, and customers have a single source for all their software. Yep, you guessed it: Verizon's model for success is Microsoft. And if Verizon can bring its vision to reality, it could change the face of mobility as we know it -- and leave players like Palm in the dust.
The Big Brother of wireless?
In a blog post last Friday, Palm's Galbraith wrote of what he saw as a revolution in hardware, with pocket-sized smartphones gradually replacing yesterday's desktop PCs. At the same time, he said, he was dismayed that not every vendor agrees with his ideal of an open developer platform.
"It seems that some view this revolution as a chance to seize power in downright Orwellian ways," Galbraith wrote, "by constraining what we as developers can say, dictating what kinds of apps we can create, controlling how we distribute our apps, and placing all kinds of limits on what we can do to our computing devices."
Where Verizon is concerned, put a check mark next to all of the above. The carrier is already well-known for disabling handset features that clash with its business model. More recently, it has been hard at work on a multipronged plan to consolidate control over its developer market, too.
Central to these efforts will be the VCast App Store, a unified e-commerce hub that will take the place of third-party download sites like the Palm App Catalog and the Android Market on Verizon's network. Instead of directing customers to different app stores depending on what brand of handset they own, Verizon plans to cut out the middlemen and offer a single source for third-party applications -- with the carrier earning a percentage on each sale, naturally.
Even more interesting, however, is Verizon's participation in the JIL (Joint Innovation Lab), a multinational consortium that aims to create a common framework allowing mobile applications to run on multiple operating systems. According to Verizon execs, the proliferation of mobile operating systems, with their various incompatible SDKs, has slowed the place of mobile app development. With the participation of the JIL, it hopes to see the ecosystem reduced to three or four major operating systems in the next two years.
Enter the Verizon platform
The thing is, Verizon's plan does make some sense. There really are too many mobile operating systems on the market now. Between BlackBerry, iPhone, Symbian, Windows Mobile, and now upstarts like WebOS and Android, the smartphone market resembles somewhat the 8-bit era of the 1980s, where developers needed to learn a whole new operating environment to support each new brand of PC. Verizon can help with that -- as long as we're comfortable with history repeating itself.
Verizon plans to consolidate the mobile market in the same way that Microsoft consolidated PCs. In Verizon's world, it won't matter whether you have a BlackBerry, a Palm Pre, or a handset from HTC. Customers will have access to the same games and applications no matter which platform they use, and they'll download them from the same source: Verizon. User experience will differ from device to device, sure. But as a developer, your focus won't be on the Palm experience or the BlackBerry experience; your target platform will be Verizon handsets.
Sound scary? It should. Just the thought of it makes me thankful I'm not a Verizon customer. But as long as U.S. mobile carriers have the final say over what handsets can be used on their networks and in what manner, this is the specter looming over us. That's why I'm glad to see that the FCC is investigating the practice of exclusive contracts between handset vendors and carriers. A mobile market where customers can use whatever handsets they choose and vote with their feet when their carrier works against their interests would be the best thing for customers and developers alike -- not to mention promising upstart platforms like Palm's.

text: New Mural Painted near College Ave Train Station Mural celebrates diversity in Wheaton. Anna Morris | Assistant News Editor Pedestrians walking by the College Avenue train station are in for a colorful surprise. The previously plain brick wall on the building that houses the Essencia Yoga studio is now covered with a mural called "Pearls of the Universe." Painted by artist R.J. Ogren, the mural aims to celebrate Wheaton's diversity and the many backgrounds and ethnicities that the city's residents represent. More > Light at the End of the Chase Street Pedestrian Tunnel The Union Pacific Railway makes progress on the Chase Street pedestrian tunnel. Amanda Morris | News Editor Since May 2012, the Union Pacific Railroad (UPR) has been working on a pedestrian underpass that will go under the tracks that cross over Chase Street, located near McCully Stadium and Michigan Crescent Apartments. According to the DuPage County website, in order to make track improvements, the Union Pacific Railroad will eventually close vehicle access at the Chase Street crossing. While the road will close for cars, the UPR has been constructing a pedestrian underpass that will connect Wheaton College with the Illinois Prairie Path in order to give students faster access to classroom buildings on campus. More > OMD is Partyin' it up in Beamer Joanne Kim | Guest Writer Starting in early July, Wheaton's Facebook page started filling up with recent graduates' Instagram photos of the new Office of Multicultural Development (OMD) suite. "This new OMD space makes me want to fall on my face in thanksgiving! #PTL," Ana Akin '13 said. "Eva's new #OMD office. Still in progress. God is SO GOOD! #PTL," Emily Dao '13 said. The new OMD suite is now becoming a hot spot for Wheaton students to come together and enjoy each other's company. More > Tough Road Ahead Thunder to face two top-20 teams in four-day span. Calvin Wetzel | Sports Editor When the 2013 season began, there were plenty of question marks surrounding the Thunder women's soccer team. How would they respond to the loss of two All-Americans? Or, how would they respond to beginning the season with numerous injuries to starters? What would be the outcome of a change of formation? The Thunder have answered all of these questions with a 6-0 start, as they picked up two more victories last week. More > House Protected Wheaton trounces Albion 66-0 in home opener. Judah Newby It didn't take long to figure out who was going to have the upper hand in last Saturday night's matchup between Wheaton and Albion College (Mich.) at McCullly Stadium. The Thunder led 24-0 after the first quarter and 45-0 at halftime in an authoritative 66-0 shutout victory over the visiting Britons. Wheaton improves to 2-0 overall and hosts Luther College (Iowa) tomorrow afternoon at McCully Stadium. More >

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Florida Parole Commission has denied parole for a man who killed a St. Augustine Beach police officer 37 years ago.
Deputy Marshal Ron Parker was killed in January 1975.
He was the first member of the St. Augustine Beach Police Department to die in the line of duty.
His killer, Thomas DeSherlia, was already wanted for murder and robbery in other states when he killed Parker.
He's serving a life sentence, but will face another parole hearing in 2019.
A park in St. Augustine Beach is named in Parker's memory.
A ceremony is held there each year on the date of his killing.

Patentable Matter After the Bilski Decision
An Address by Chief Judge Michel
United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
January 21, 2009
12:00-1:30 pm EST
In its recent en banc decision in In re Bilski, the Federal Circuit addressed limitations on patentable subject matter in the context of a business method invention, analyzing a body of caselaw in such a way that some say could call into question the validity of many other patents and types of claims while others argue it is not restrictive enough. The Bilski decision, of course, is being studied by a broad range of members of the patent community who are seeking to determine its effects on innovation, prosecution, licensing, and litigation.
In this meeting with students, professors, and members of the bar, Chief Judge Michel discussed the precedents at play within the areas of the law known as "business method" and "software" patents. Professor Joshua Sarnoff (Washington College of Law, American University, who authored an amicus brief for a group of law professors in Bilski) moderated Q&A after Judge Michel's prepared remarks.
The program took place on January 21, 2009 at 12 p.m. at the Washington College of Law, 4801 Massachusetts Avenue, NW Washington, DC, Room 603.
To encourage participation, the FCBA also broadcast the program live on January 21 as a part of its regular Horizons series.
