I'm await to find out if I get into the MArch program at the University of British Columbia. I'm an American citizen but I wouldn't mind practicing in Canada. How does the job market in Canada look in comparison to a seemingly dismal income/employment rate in the US?
I'm looking for a little good news on both sides of the boarder, but any insight would be great.
Of the little I know about Vancouver's economy, the real estate market there (and in Canada in general) may be in danger of popping if the over-valuation of housing stock continues coupled with low interest rates (though I'm guessing if it does in fact pop, it won't be as bad as what the US experienced). The good thing about getting an M.Arch in Canada is that there's licensure equivalency, so when the US picks up, just move back stateside.
Apparently Toronto's current building boom is the largest in north america right now.
Yeah but there's a monoploy of a half a dozen firms that specialize in only doing all these developer condos, and it's all shoebox sized units, terrible layouts, like living in a cubical in the sky, which they charge for 400k.
It's been a few years since I worked in Canada, but I'm thinking of going back in the new year. For those of you who are in the know, what city in Canada seems to have the best architecture industry right now? I've been debating relocating to either Calgary or Vancouver (hoping to avoid Toronto).
Thanks for the input.
I can't speak too much about Vancouver, however the economy seems to be doing quite well out there. There are a lot of job postings and good architecture coming out of the West coast of Canada.
I work/live about an hour South-West of Toronto. The economy here was significantly slower from 2009-2011, but this was primarily due the nervousness of investors/developers about everything happening in the US. The banks in Canada never failed, so we were never really hit that hard, at least not here. 2012 has picked up dramatically. Our firm can't seem to keep up with the work coming in so we have almost doubled in size in the last 1.5 years.
Byen01 is right, Toronto may be in a housing bubble at the moment, but only time will tell. The rest of Ontario seems to be doing quite well regardless.
On another note, if you can handle the lifestyle, Alberta is probably one of the fastest growing regions in Canada right now due to the oil tarsand production (also Alberta has low personal and corporate income taxes, the lowest fuel taxes
among provinces, no capital tax, no payroll tax, no health premiums, and no
sales tax)
Vancouver and Toronto are doing well it seems, but of course with such huge populations and architecture schools in both cities, you'd be competing for jobs with a lot of recent grads. I finished school last year and started working in a smaller market (offered a job before graduation) but the work slowed down and I was laid off. It took me 2 months to find another job, which happened to be 3 provinces and 2400 km away.
From speaking with colleagues, it seems that the pay is a little better in the US but the economy is stronger in Canada... It might make sense to work for a while in Canada, and then head to the US where your experience will get your foot in the door.
my friends are all doing well in canada, 180 degrees different than folks i know in europe (very little good news from there) and about 90 degrees away from life here in japan/asia.
some interesting work coming lately. my classmates from u of manitoba are doing very well in winnipeg - they all have own offices and a few are winning awards on global stage (along with steven holl and zaha hadid, amazingly). alberta is a bit like texas right now, except with health care. not a lot of great architecture, for same reason.
montreal remains great place to live esp if you speak french and some really great firms there doing quite great things. saucier and perrotte are a favorite.
economy seems great from what i have seen. it was never as high as usa in its recent bloatation phase but never burst either. you will also have to deal with friendly people everywhere and none of them are carrying guns and you will probably have to get resigned to living longer and healthier with the health care system. might feel weird for an american.
"Alberta is a bit like Texas right now, except with health care. Not a lot of great architecture, for same reason."
yup, very much so. Though Edmonton is traditionally more progressive and has a healthier culture scene; Calgary has had some 'fresh air' in terms of culture in the recent few years and things are shifting on the municipal level, with the outlook of possibly enabling better architecture. But things won't be turning into vibrant metropolitan scenarios here overnight, not with all the socially, politically, and economically conservative people that live here.
There are actually great offices, big and small, in Alberta, but the competition for landing a job in those is tight.
Can't pass up on a thread so near and dear. I'm an american that came to canada to do my m.arch. at UBC. After graduating, I worked in Vancouver for about 7 years at a couple of the better design firms there.
And then... academics working in the outskirts of the humanities are uniquely at the mercy of geography, esp. in canada, which becomes increasingly consequential once you are married to one of them. My wife's job ended up being at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, and after much heel dragging, I joined her there (here).
Which means I can vouch for the comments about the job market being pretty good here, in particular that the salaries here are higher than in Vancouver. The way it has worked out, my daily path takes me through a couple of the nicer and more progressive parts of edmonton -- and only those -- which makes it difficult to generalize much about the culture of the place at large, because my sample is fortunately skewed. As it has worked, I have to say it isn't nearly as bad as I had feared. Though I'm pretty sure that all those worst case scenarios are more than possible outcomes of ending up here.
While the vast majority of the built environment here nudges one toward despair, the redeeming thing is that the powers that be agree. The city masterplanning docs are in sync with pedestrian-oriented mixed-use urban-density best practices, and the mayor in particular is pretty awesome about putting a priority on raising the bar on what get's built here. One of the partners in my current firm described it as a shift away from advocating cheap as shit buildings as a badge of fiscal responsibility. The problem is that there is decades worth of built fabric to rehabilitate, which in a sense means no shortage of work needing to be done. My impression is that there is an increasing appetite here for quality design work, but there is little history/culture of it. That said, I haven't been here very long, so we'll see what happens.
Thanks for the input everyone. I'll be moving to Canada from Europe. I'm Canadian though and did work in Alberta for a while directly after I finished school.
As for what Will said about not-so-interesting architecture in Alberta, I'm not too fussed by that as what I'm interested in isn't very interesting to most others (healthcare design). I'm still undecided. I know I'd prefer to live in Vancouver (if for nothing more than its weather), but I have a gut feeling I'll have an easier time finding employment in Calgary.
I have a gut feeling I'll have an easier time finding employment in Calgary
Keep in mind, despite the census figures of over 1 mil citizens, it's very much a small town where, if someone doesn't make an introduction for you, you never get called back on a job application. You have to know the right people before you even get a chance to be interviewed. I can't speak to how well the healthcare sector is doing, but having specialized experience like that will go a long way to help you find a job. There's less than a handful offices that do healthcare work in this city.
also, keep in mind that Calgary is notorious for the thousands of people who move here to make a quick buck, lured by the promise of employment and 'social stability'. Not infrequently these migrant workers find, upon their arrival, that they can not afford a place to live. A large percentage of the homeless in this city are the working poor. While this problem mostly manifests itself for people who provide manual labor, it's important for you to consider how you will accommodate your move here before you do it.
Rent can vary between $1000 and $5000 a month, depending on the location and type of property, and the median sale price for a house is $420,000. That's a pretty standard wood frame, developer built-for-sale, shitty design, shoddy construction practices, dressed up in moderately expensive finishes house. And this house is likely to be far away from where you will be working, so you need to budget for a car or two (depending on your family size) to get around.
I can't speak for the architecture scene but I grew up in Windsor and can say that it has very cheap rent/real estate, nice parks and weather in the summer, but you need a car to get around. Windsor has a bad rap (thanks, Stephen Colbert) that it doesn't deserve.
That being said, I chose to move to B.C. ten years ago (with a brief time in Montreal) and I would definitely stay in Vancouver Island over anywhere else in Canada.
(Too bad there's no arch schools here so I'm applying for grad school elsewhere including UBC and other schools on the West Coast of the U.S.)
I am a junior level architecture intern in the United States. I graduated in 2005 and I haven't been able to find work for 4 years in an architecture firm. I have only been able to get small side jobs. I've recently heard that Canada has a healthier economy (especially in building) than the U.S. How feasible would it be for me to find work in a city like Toronto? I would be willing to start at the bottom. I love design and I want to get back into it. I have a BArch and unfortunately I cannot afford additional education.
What is the best route to go about getting a job in Toronto? What do I need to do to make myself eligible for in order to practice in a city like Toronto? I mention Toronto because I love the cirty and for its public transportation.
If residential real estate is to be any gauge of economic health and prospects for the construction industry, the following page should help anyone intending to try their luck in Canada: http://www.cbc.ca/news/interactives/housing-canada/
Understand, the market represented above is largely driven by merchant builders [term borrowed from elsewhere on these boards]
Very recent news of demand and/or property values dropping significantly in Toronto and Vancouver (I recall hearing close to 20% on the Lang & O'Leary exchange, but am not 100% sure of this) , while the average house prices remain the same. Meaning we might have a bit of a bubble blowing up in the larger cities.
I graduated from a Canadian undergrad program this April and deferred all of my M.Arch acceptances to next year to gain more work experience first (to add to my one co-op during undergrad). I graduated in a mid-major city and moved back home to a major city (Ottawa). I was not able to find any jobs in the cities that had architecture schools in them; internships/entry positions are extremely hard to come by with that many students in the area. As well, it seems like many of the Canadian programs have a co-op attached or at least a solid career services to help with summer jobs. I spent about a month searching before finding a 2-month spot (which dried up), and then it took me about 1.5 months of no-go's in Ottawa before I vastly spread out my search. I got a year-long offer within a week in a city with no architecture school, and this seems to be the common thread. People are able to find jobs with a lot of work (and some luck) in cities/towns that have no architecture school in them. However, in cities with arch schools its much harder due to saturation. I had "connections" (if you want to call it that) at a few firms that just couldn't work out because of the proximity to an architecture school. Just something to think about when searching.
All of the arch schools in Canada are on that site.
I am an international student, from Yemen; I will be receiving my undergraduate degree in architecture in May, 2017 from Louisiana Tech University. Due to the war back home, Yemen, as the well as the political issues against the people of my country here in the US, I am trying to move to Canada to work there with an architecture firm. If any can give me insight or guidance about the firms that sponsor foreign workers and provide job offers, I will be very grateful. I am here in the US currently with my wife and son, and I would love to leave as soon as a chance waves my way.
Thank you in advance.
I am a Last year B.arch Student from India and will be graduating by July 2017. I want to apply for master in Canada. Interior Designing, Set Designing Or Landscape are my area of interest for masters. Can anyone please tell me about scope in Canada for these subjects as a career? Are they worth doing or not? Which are the major universities offering these subjects? How are job opportunities over there? It will be really great if anyone can help me with these questions.

Episode guide
My source for the additions I just made to this page is an episode guide published by CTW in Japan. Half of it is in Japanese, which I can't read, but enough is in English to have a lot of info like sketch titles and descriptions/keywords/partial scripts that help me describe clips or identify ones we know about. It is organized by episode, and everything I can cross-reference against episodes we have or episode content compiled from CTW archive material checks out. The citation on the CTW archive info is so meticulous I want to copy that, but I don't quite know how to cite what I can get from here (publication info is in Japanese...). I also don't know what the procedure is on sketches I can't positively identify, such as "G - Glue"--here I just wrote exactly what it says in the book. For identifiable sketches, I copied the description from the other wiki page so people can search things easier. Anyway, this is one of many episodes that I can add to, but I don't want to start changing things, or changing EKA links, without clearing it with people first.

- and this episode guide labels both cartoons and stop-motion animation as "animated film" so i'll do the same if I can't identify the clip (like the g - glue one in this episode.) StreetScenes 20:52, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr Split
By JACKIE WILLIS
October 25, 2013
After a little over three years of marriage, Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom are calling it quits, one report claims.
"In a joint statement, Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr have announced that they have been amicably separated for the past few months," a rep said in a statement obtained by ETonline. "After six years together, they have recently decided to formalize their separation."
RELATED PICS: Celebrity Splits of 2013
Bloom, 36, and Kerr, 30, began dating in 2007, and were married in July 2010 after announcing their engagement only a month prior. "Despite this being the end of their marriage, they love, support and respect each other as both parents of their son and as family," the statement continues.
The Hobbit actor and the supermodel have one son, Flynn Bloom, who was born on Jan. 6, 2011.
RELATED PICS: InstaGrab: What Are the Stars Sharing?
News of the couple's split may come as a surprise for some as the two just made their last public appearance on Sept. 19 at the opening of Bloom's Broadway play Romeo and Juliet, where he stars alongside Condola Rashad. Then, about two weeks ago, Kerr and Bloom were seen enjoying a night out in New York City, with son Flynn resting comfortably on his dad's shoulders.
On top of that, it seems to be business as usual for Kerr, who posted on Instagram on Oct. 24th:
This past June, the former Victoria's Secret model commented on her views of marriage, telling Net-a-porter's online magazine The Edit, "I think it is really important not to feel as a woman that you have to do and be everything."
The Australian beauty added, "If you're really an alpha female, you don't allow [your partner] to have the space to feel like the man in the relationship. Maybe I am too traditional, but men feel important when you ask for their help, instead of thinking you can do it all on your own."
Are you surprised by this breakup?

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/12/2011 (2069 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
It's a Winnipeg Christmas landmark, a holiday icon almost everyone in this city has ogled at one time or another.
It's warmed the cockles of my festive little heart every Christmas for as far back as I can remember.
If you've ever driven along Route 90 at this time of year, just north of the Portage Avenue overpass, near the southwest corner of Ness Avenue and Century Street, then you've seen it, too.
All you have to do is glance up at the night sky and there it is, on a balcony on the 11th floor of 299 Queen St.
It's a sign, written with twinkling red Christmas lights in letters two-feet high and 18-inches wide that's visible for miles, proudly proclaiming the following joyful holiday greeting: "HUMBUG"
It's not really Christmas for me until I spot the "Humbug" sign. I love the way it good naturedly tweaks the nose of the typical festive greetings we are bombarded with at this chaotic time of year.
For decades, whenever I drove by it, I formed the following thought: "Ha ha ha!" But this year, as a crusading journalist, I had a deeper thought: "Who the (bad word) puts this sign up, and why?"
And so, when I drove by it this week, I veered into the block's parking lot, wandered into the lobby and began asking hard-hitting journalistic questions. The first person I met was Carole Finlayson who has lived in the "Humbug Block" for years and sees the sign as a holiday highlight.
"It's one of my favourite things about Christmas -- Bah, Humbug!" Carole said, promising to get the resident who puts the sign up to call me. "He's very nice," she said. "Whether he likes Christmas or not, I don't know."
That's how, Tuesday morning, I found myself parked on the couch of Don Guzda, a 58-year-old sheet-metal worker, and enjoying the awesome view of Polo Park and Garbage Hill from his 11th-floor balcony. What you need to know is that Don likes Christmas, but he's a shy person, so it took a bit of friendly arm-twisting before he agreed to let me put his name in the newspaper. "I'm a quiet person," Don said. "I don't want to draw attention to myself, but I'm glad the sign makes people happy."
The last thing Don expected, when he moved into the block in 1998, was that he'd inherit a role in a Winnipeg Christmas tradition. It turns out the "Humbug" sign was built, for fun, by a kindly resident named Sid Farmer, near the end of the '70s.
"When they were moving Sid out he wanted the Humbug sign to stay right here where he built it," Don explained. "The caretakers who managed the block had it for about a year and when they moved out, they asked me to take it over.
"They said: 'We want you to keep the sign going.' I said: Why me? And they said: 'Because you're on the top floor and everybody can see it from there!' I said fine, but I didn't think it would be such a big thing."
One year, for reasons he can't recall, he forgot to pull "Humbug" out of storage. And he heard about it. Big time. "The one year I didn't put it up, people were phoning the manager downstairs asking: 'Where's the sign?' And: 'Why isn't the sign up?' It was a big issue."
Added building manager Bo Kaminski: "Every year I get calls from people saying, 'Thanks for putting the Humbug sign up.' This year, I had a call from a lady asking me to tell Don how much she loves it."
Don decided the easiest and best thing would be to put it up every year, so he does. "I'm the keeper of the sign," he declares. "I took on that responsibility. It's just a thing I have to do; that's all there is to it."
Even his co-workers want to lend a hand, sometimes giving him lights to keep "Humbug" glowing bright. He tried using LED lights once, "but you could hardly see it, so I had to go back to the old-style bulbs."
Don isn't a "Humbug" kind of guy. "I like Christmas," he explains, "Everybody should just spend time with their family and friends and be more caring at this time of year."
He knows he'll have to build a new sign soon "because it's getting old and falling apart." Then, a thought occurred to him. "If I ever leave, I'll have to put someone else in charge," he said, then, frowning at me, added: "YOU can do it if you want!"
I wasn't sure how to reply. Then I saw the answer, shining in front of me, spelled out in giant red letters. "HUMBUG" I told Don. And he smiled back, because for some of us, that's what Christmas is all about.

Ship is almost a duplicate of Voyager: Freedom of the Seas Cruise Review by miche218
Overall Member Rating
Ship is almost a duplicate of Voyager
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Port Canaveral (Orlando)
I found this ship to be almost identical, with a handful of differences.
We decided to sail this time of year because we are expecting a baby in the summer; we wanted one final trip before the little one's arrival.
There were barely any children or teens on board.
We sailed along with my husband's parents-they stayed in a balcony cabin, and we stayed in a promenade room once again.
My only complaint, barely a complaint, was that our room was directly over the pub. It made for very loud evenings. It really didn't affect us-I wasn't really bothered by the noise. I was able to sleep through the music.
The noticeable differences on this ship, comparing it to Voyager, were the cupcake bakery, the free standing pizza place and boleros is a tiny lounge by the photo gallery. Oops, almost forgot about the Flowrider.
I can tell you that I didn't noticed how More much larger it was until our sea days.
There were noticeably, a lot of people. It made me wonder if these mega ships..are too big?? It was difficult to find deck chairs near any of the pools. Forget the solarium seating. IT felt like people camped out a spot at 6am and didn't move at all. I never saw an empty chair near there. It was disappointing.
If you decided to have a late breakfast, after 830, finding seating in the windjammer was challenging. Not impossible, but it did require a lot of walking around and asking for help for seating.
I found the reservation services for the shows to be useless and unnecessary.
We were able to just walk into the shows with no problems. We arrived 20 min before the Freedom Ice tour and were told that at that point, the seating was first come first serve. so what was the point of my online reservation if there is a time limit on when I can use it?
The Mystery theater dinner-save your money please!!! I was excited to experience this on our first night at the Portofino. Terrible, terrible acting.
I have an open mind with entertainment, but this was truly a waste of an evening. The only saving grace was our meal at the portofino. IT was LONG. Something like, 2 1/2 hours.
Our cruise director Graham was interesting, though I felt he was a bit crass (fart jokes every time, really)??, and found some of his attempts at humor regarding the international staff to be tacky and tasteless. Mimicking accents is just, well..rude. I don't think he meant them that way..but it just felt really off color and inappropriate.
The entertainment selections were pretty good for the most part..loved the Once Upon Time Show, Marquee and the Drew Thomas show. The comedian on the farewell show was also hilarious.
If I were to compare it to my Voyager experience, then I'll say Voyager had a more well rounded selection of shows.
On to the ports-
CoCo Cay was lovely-though the day was fairly windy and overcast. I had a virgen coco loco which was delish! The beach areas were nice though the main beach near the inflatables had strange sand texture. My husband described it as stepping into baby poop. The other side of the island was normal feeling sand, so we stayed on that end for the most part.
We did the Magan's bay beach excursion in St Thomas and the Segway tour in St Maarten, which was by far our favorite port. Had a really fun time on the segways.
The dining room service was fantastic-and the windjammer was your usual lunch/breakfast fare. I did enjoy getting coffee delivered to my room every morning.
We watched some Flowrider people but didn't use anything on the sports deck so I can't really say how those things compared to other cruise ships.
My main complaint with this cruise line is the lack of self service laundry/ironing. My steamer was confiscated-so they force you to pay them for pressing service. It annoys me. I don't want to pay for a service I can do for myself. Carnival has shared facilities on each deck, don't see why RCI had to nickel and dime us for something basic.
All in all, yes I would sail them again, though maybe on a smaller vessel. Less
Published 03/10/12
Cabin review: 6577
We had a promenade view on deck 6, #6577. It is directly over the pub-noisy! The location was convenient to the Sorrentos pizza for snacks and water. Very quiet hallway-nice flat screen tv, ample storage under your bed to slide your suitcases underneath. Good lighting over the bed for reading.

Modeling farmers' decisions on child labor and schooling in the cocoa sector: a multinomial logit analysis in Côte d'Ivoire
Since 2000, children working in the cocoa sector of Côte d'Ivoire have found themselves in the media spotlight. This situation has assumed particular importance because approximately 40% of the world's cocoa production occurs in Côte d'Ivoire. Concerned parties have since taken great interest in this thorny issue. There is a need to better understand the reality of child labor utilization in this sector. This article investigates child labor issues in the cocoa sector of Côte d'Ivoire in conjunction with schooling status of children. The study is based on a survey done in 2002, over a representative sample of more than 11,000 members of cocoa households. The multinomial logit model is used to capture choice probabilities across work and/or school options. The results reveal that child labor in cocoa farms and nonenrollment in schools are significant. Moreover, many children are involved in potentially dangerous and/or harmful tasks. Data also highlight gender and age dimensions in the participation of children in tasks and the way labor is allocated. Econometric results generally indicate that the gender and age of children, whether or not the child is the biological child of the household head, parents' education, the origin of the farmer, household welfare, household size, the household dependency ratio, the size of other perennial crop farms, the number of sharecroppers working with the household head, and communities' characteristics are all pertinent in explaining the child work/schooling outcome in the cocoa sector of Côte d'Ivoire.

ormer U.S. Rep. Mark Schauer was one of many citizens pepper-sprayed by police Tuesday while engaging in a protest against the Republicans' union busting bill at Michigan's Capitol. A mounted police also used his horse as crowd control, running over a citizen.
The Battlecreek Enquirer reported that Schauer had been in the process of trying to negotiate with police regarding moving the crowd when they were pepper-sprayed:
He said he tried to negotiate a line away from the Capitol that police would accept when he and "a number" of people were sprayed.
"I immediately began to retreat and began to cover my eyes and my mouth," Schauer said. "It was not good."

A person close to Wilson's heart is dying and the doctor takes a great risk in curing him before the patient's remaining 24 hours expire.
It will be a Wilson-centric episode of "House M.D." next week. When an old friend and former patient (guest star Joshua Malina) of Wilson's exhibits paralysis in his right arm, Wilson puts himself on the case. House wagers Wilson that the patient's symptoms are attributed to new cancer cells.
Wilson accepts even though he is reluctant to believe the cancer has returned. With the help of the team, Wilson works to diagnose the patient more optimistic results, but when things take a turn for the worse, Wilson must address his inability to separate patient from friend.
Meanwhile, Cuddy seeks advice in her search for real estate. The preview teases that Cuddy is moving in with Lucas and House is "not okay" with it.
"Wilson" will air on Monday, November 30 as the last episode this year. "House" will be back on January 11 with the eleventh episode.

In the press junket of 'Tropic Thunder', 'Iron Man' depicter Robert Downey Jr. rejected the rumor that Hulk will be making a special appearance in the sequel.
Setting the record straight about his future "Iron Man 2" project, acclaimed actor Robert Downey Jr. addressed earlier rumor circulating around the possible cameo of one particular superhero in the movie. Specifically, the "Zodiac" star slammed speculation that Hulk may make special appearance in the sequel.
Talking to journalists during "Tropic Thunder" press junket on August 3, the 43-year-old simply stated "no" to a journalist's question whether Hulk will be included, without offering any explanation on why the green raging beast won't appear in the story. When being dug up further on other cameos' possibility, the Academy Award-nominated actor noted that he cannot comment on it stating, "I can neither confirm nor deny that. Honestly, nothing's set in stone right now".
Although he has revealed that he have no idea about the special appearances of other superheroes in "Iron Man 2", Downey Jr. stressed that the filmmakers won't risk shifting the focus of the film from the metal-suited hero. "Ya, it's a big world. It's kind of hard to navigate because you want to be able to set up The Avengers in Iron Man 2, but you don't want to um...[Take the focus off of Iron Man] Ever," so he claimed.
"It's such a big leap, before we were grounded in reality and now we're starting to go into the Marvel Universe. I don't know much about this, I just know that we go scene to scene to scene, and we have some great scenes which I think will be really surprising at how we took all of this goodwill and this success and we decided to do something ever more kind of risky and something that represents the way Jon thinks and the way I like to develop a character. So, it's going to be good."
To be directed once again by Jon Favreau, the sequel to blockbuster action film "Iron Man" is slated for April 30, 2010. The screenplay is said to be written by "Tropic Thunder" co-writer Justin Theroux, while the production is scheduled to be kicked off in early 2009.

Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer
Radiation therapy uses high-powered X-rays, seeds or radioactive material to shrink or destroy your tumor.
- Image Guidance Makes Targeting Tumors More Precise
At Scott & White, we use Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) during the course of our radiation oncology treatments in areas of the body that are prone to movement. IGRT is the use of frequent imaging during your radiation therapy treatment to ensure absolute accuracy of treatment.
Benefits of IGRT include:
- Patient and tumor motion tracked with the use of image guidance
- Radiation beam adjusted in response to current tumor image to maintain accuracy and reduce likelihood of harming nearby tissue
- Helps target tumors to sub-millimeter accuracy
- Features computerized robotic deliver and stereotactic localization imaging
- Requires an imaging series, which is transferred to computer, before treatment begins
- Used in conjunction with IMRT, 3DCRT and stereotactic radiotherapy
Scott & White's Approach
Scott & White's mission to provide personalized, comprehensive care is the foundation for our radiation therapy program.
Our approach at Scott & White is in individualizing therapy. Our radiation oncologists take meticulous care in determining the precise radiation therapy protocol for you. Several factors impact their decision, including the type, location and stage of your specific tumor and your overall medical condition.
How Radiation Therapy Is Used to Treat Breast Cancer
Your physician team may recommend radiation therapy for your breast cancer.
Radiation therapy is recommended in some cases:
- As the first line of treatment for some early-stage breast cancers.
- In conjunction with other treatments for breast cancer.
- For tumors that have returned after surgery.
- In conjunction with chemotherapy after surgery to help destroy any remaining cancer cells. This kind of radiation therapy is called adjuvant therapy.
Types of Radiation Therapy
Scott & White offers the following types of radiation therapy to treat cancer of the breast:
- External-Beam Radiation Therapy
- Forward Planned IMRT for Breast Cancer: With this form of radiation, the X-ray beam is smoothed out, minimizing the effect on healthy tissues; there are fewer side effects with this treatment.
- Hypofractionated Radiation: This radiation treatment takes place over three weeks rather than six; it's ideal for women with small to moderate breast sizes and who don't require chemotherapy.
- Internal-Beam Radiation Therapy
- Partial Breast Radiation: This form of radiation treatment occurs after a lumpectomy. A device that emits radiation is placed inside the tumor site, emitting radiation over a five-day period.
Side Effects of Radiation Therapy
Each radiation therapy approach is different and each person's reaction to it can vary. At Scott & White, your radiation oncologist will see you through treatment and help you manage any side effects.
For general information about side effects, talk to your radiation oncologist.

You can now add New York Times columnist Bob Herbert to the growing list of liberal media members so concerned with the recent flip-flops by presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Barack Obama that they're willing to publicly express their angst for all to see.
In this instance, the disappointment regarding the junior senator from Illinois's many changes of heart was palpable.
In an article entitled "Lurching With Abandon," Herbert attacked his candidate of choice with almost a Netroots-like fervor (emphasis added):
In one of the numbers from "Fiddler on the Roof," Tevye sings, with a mixture of emotions: "We haven't got the man ... we had when we began." [...]
But Senator Obama is not just tacking gently toward the center. He's lurching right when it suits him, and he's zigging with the kind of reckless abandon that's guaranteed to cause disillusion, if not whiplash. [...]
"What's he doing?" is the most common question heard recently from Obama supporters.
For one thing, he's taking his base for granted, apparently believing that such stalwart supporters as blacks, progressives and pumped-up younger voters will be with him no matter what. A taste of the backlash this can produce erupted on the candidate's own Web site. [...]
There has been a reluctance among blacks to openly criticize Senator Obama, the first black candidate with a real shot at the presidency. But behind the scenes, there is discontent among African-Americans, as well, over Mr. Obama's move away from progressive issues, including his support of the Supreme Court's decision affirming the constitutional right of individuals to bear arms.
There's even concern that he's doing the Obama two-step on the issue that has been the cornerstone of his campaign: his opposition to the war in Iraq. [...]
Obama is betting that in the long run none of this will matter, that the most important thing is winning the White House, that his staunchest supporters (horrified at the very idea of a President McCain) will be there when he needs them...But that's a very dangerous game for a man who first turned voters on by presenting himself as someone who was different, who wouldn't engage in the terminal emptiness of politics as usual.
Strong words indeed, especially from a devout liberal like Herbert who also happens to be African-American.
In the end, one could make the case that press members are trying to get their concerns voiced now, during the summer, and well before the Convention. After all, that's when most citizens begin to get engaged in the election process.
Although this is possible, it is equally so that folks like Herbert, and the many other journalists that have been voicing similar opinions, are indeed disappointed with Obama's flip-flops, and having gushed so fawningly over the junior senator for so many months, might now be inclined to examine his future words and deeds rather than shamelessly rubberstamp them.
We'll see.

I apologize for not writing a longer introduction this week. A weekend of trauma call and other sports events kept me away from my laptop more than I would like. There are some exciting new features coming in the next few weeks, so stay tuned and keep reading!
This week's Ask Dr. Geier column looks at recovery from surgery and trying to get back to sports. While the answer varies with the surgery and the sport or activity of that patient, the question is very common in sports medicine. As always, please keep my disclaimer about my inability to discuss specific medical information in mind.
Rebecca in Grand Rapids, Minnesota asks:
3 weeks ago I had surgery on my knee to what the surgeon thought was a torn medial meniscus. She gets to the point where she was going to get the scope in and she couldn't get it in because my plica was so big that it was blocking my entire knee from view with the scope. She removed the plica of course. My entire knee was swollen and it was acting like something was torn for over 3 months. My question is since the surgeon had to mess with my kneecap a lot how long will it be before I will be able to dance? The doctor said 3 months. Is that a good estimate?
Recovery from knee surgery can often take longer than most patients think. This observations seems to true whether the surgery involves trimming out a meniscus tear, resecting a plica, or other arthroscopic procedures. While the underlying problem is treated and better within a few days, it can take weeks or even months for the swelling to completely resolve and motion and strength to return to normal before the athlete actually gets back to sports.
Plicae within the knee are usually treated nonoperatively. Occasionally I will resect a plica when I am doing a surgery for another problem, such as a meniscus tear. Even then, I usually leave plicae that I find incidentally unless it appears swollen and inflamed. In these cases, I am afraid that the plica could continue to serve as a problem even after the patient has recovered from the meniscus surgery or whatever procedure I went in to perform.
Resection of the plica usually does not add much to the procedure. Occasionally it causes a little more swelling than one might expect from a meniscus surgery. This increased swelling could cause some increased quad weakness early on. Having said that, I think aggressive efforts to decrease swelling and regain range of motion, especially if the athlete works postoperatively with a physical therapist, should have the athlete back to sports in 6-12 weeks. Often the athlete is cleared to play sooner than that, but maximum medical improvement can take months to reach.

The 33-year-old was part of the side that suffered a 60-0 loss at the hands of the All Blacks in June, after they had finished the RBS 6 Nations in third place with defeats to Wales and England.
It marks a huge contrast to Ireland's Six Nations Grand Slam win in 2009 with a crisis meeting called last month at Lansdowne Road.
Declan Kidney has convened his squad for a two-day training camp ahead of the new season which begins in November with Ireland taking on South Africa and Argentina at the Aviva Stadium, and O'Driscoll admits Ireland are feeling the pressure.
"There is a pressure on us to perform and get back to the standards we expect of ourselves," O'Driscoll told the Irish Independent.
"I am a big believer in performances looking after results rather than being results-driven.
"If you're performing well, you get that knock-on effect in terms of the team confidence and momentum.
"We have to make sure when we spend time together in camp like this we enjoy it again. Any time we have been successful, we have built a unity as a team and a squad.
"It doesn't happen by accident. You have to constantly work at it. We're getting there and the meeting last month will help that no end.
"Sometimes you just need to be honest with each other. A lot of really good things were said at that meeting.
"It's not that you go through the motions being with Ireland. But sometimes it's good to take stock of how lucky you are and what you're actually involved in.
"Maybe we were guilty of taking the fact that we were representing our country for granted and one should never do that."

Li'l Analog Chorus
The Li'l Analog Chorus is a real deal MN3007 bucket brigade delay chip based analog chorus in a tiny little 1590A size enclosure. The LFO portion of the circuit is based on the EHX Small Clone. The signal path uses op amp low pass filters instead of transistor based for slightly higher headroom (and it also saves space).
NOTE: The LM358, TL074, and CD4047 are surface mounted chips. This may be difficult if you've never soldered SMD components before. We will solder your chips to the PCB for a $5 fee. If you'd like to receive your kit with the chips not already soldered, please be sure to select that option before adding the kit to your cart.
NOTE: Because of limited space, you cannot use knobs with skirts larger than 16mm. We recommend using 1900, Mini Fluted, Mini 1510, or BYOC style knobs. Click here for knobs.

11 Characteristics of a True Friend!
I have been blessed with countless amazing friendships in my life...I cherish my friends and I love them all so much. To me, the characteristics of a true friend is someone who will stand by you, no matter what. Someone you can trust with your deepest secrets. Someone who will bring you dinner and take your kids, even when you say no...just because they know that you need it. Someone that makes you feel happy when you are around them. Someone who doesn't compete with you, but is happy for you when good things happen in your life. Someone who will have your back and stand up for you. Someone who doesn't get offended or jealous if you spend time with someone else. Someone who truly wants what is best for you, even if it is not best for them. Someone who cheers you on in your life!
These are two of my very best friends and I absolutely LOVE them! They are always there to help me out when I need it and they make me laugh so hard that I pee my pants! They make my life fun and all around better! I couldn't live life without you girls!!
I think the first thing that we must do to gain a true friend is to be one ourselves! Here is a great list of 11 characteristics that can help us become a better friend.
1. Accepts you as you are: A true friend is someone who does not try to be somebody that she is not and accepts you as you are. They are also patient with you when you make mistakes and forgive you easily.
2. Is Dependable: A true friend is dependable and you can trust your friend with your secrets and know that he would not let a third person know about it. They stick with you in good times and bad.
3. Is Honest: A true friend would be honest and loyal with you. She does not break the promises that she made to you. She makes you feel safe and secure with her.
4. Listens to you: A true friend always listens to you and cares about your needs and emotions. A true friend would be there always when you need to talk. When you have news to share or grievances, she will give you her full attention.
5. Would be there for you: A true friend would be there with you through thick and thin. Good friends don't call up people only to request a favor. But would be the first person to come to your aid in time of crisis.
6. Gives you Space: A true friend respects your privacy. They understand that you have family, other friends and colleagues who are part of your life too and do not cling to you always. A true freind builds trust and confidence with you, which makes you comfortable enough to share your good and bad times.
7. Always keep in touch: True friends don't wait for you to call them. They always makes an effort to keep in touch with you even if it is through a quick phone call or an email. They know what's going on in your life and is interested about it. A good friend makes it clear that they care about you.
8. Do not gossip about you: A true friend does not gossip about you or talk behind your back. A true friend is a person you can trust and won't say anything about you or try to damage your reputation. They will let you know when they're concerned and do their best to stick up for you when you're in trouble. A good friend will also apologizes when she does something wrong. She does not hold grudges.
9. Would be Happy for you: A true friend never gets jealous on your success but would be happy for you. She celebrates your success as her success. A good friend will likely know how to lift your spirits and make your day.
10. Would be Supportive: A true friend is supportive of you and your goals. She will know what makes you tick and help you become the person you want to be. They won't try to change who you are or drag you into situations that make you uncomfortable.
11. Is Giving: True friends give more than what is asked. When they see a need they respond without expecting anything in return and without anyone knowing about it. True friends are generous with their time, money, possessions and knowledge. Best of all they have a generous spirit.
I feel so incredibly lucky to have the friends that I have...you know who you are and you know that I love you and am so grateful to have you in my life! Peace, Love & Rock and Roll to all of my friends out there!

The two leaders outlined an initiative to fight illnesses like HIV/AIDS and cut childhood and maternal mortality rates during talks in Downing Street.
They said an international health partnership to target overseas aid will be officially launched on 5 September.
This will improve access to health services in poorer nations, they added.
'Very clear'
Mrs Merkel's visit to the UK is her first since Mr Brown became prime minister nearly two months ago.
After a press conference, the two left for Wembley Stadium to watch England play Germany in a friendly football match.
The prime minister said that, although he was a Scot, he hoped England would win after scoring "a large number of goals".
Speaking after the talks, Mr Brown rejected trade union calls for a referendum on the EU treaty.
Mr Brown is facing calls from the Tories for a referendum on the treaty, which were echoed on Wednesday by the GMB and RMT trade unions.
They say the treaty is similar to the proposed EU constitution, which was abandoned after it was voted down in France and Holland.
An ICM poll earlier this week suggested 82% of British voters want a referendum on the treaty.
Among Labour voters the poll suggested the figure was 80% and for Tory voters it was 88%.
But Mr Brown said the "proper way" to discuss the issue was in parliament.
Shadow Europe Minister Mark Francois told the ePolitix.com website he would like Mr Brown to tell Mrs Merkel that public opinion was "running so high" he felt he had to hold a referendum.
But Europe Minister Jim Murphy said this was unnecessary because the government had made it "very clear in the treaty that the UK will not give away important areas of sovereignty to the European Union".
Meanwhile, Liberal Democrat leader Sir Menzies Campbell called on Mr Brown to challenge Mrs Merkel over Germany's role in Afghanistan.
He said: "The prime minister should take this opportunity to impress upon Chancellor Merkel the overwhelming necessity to ensure that Nato forces win in Afghanistan.
"He should tell her that the chances of doing so are being materially damaged by the so-called 'caveats' which Germany has attached to the deployment of its force.
"These caveats detract from the effectiveness not only of the German troops, but of the Nato effort as a whole."

Orpik rises to occasion as Penguins take down Capitals once again
Defenseman Brooks Orpik ended Tuesday in the trainer's room after the Penguins dispatched the Washington Capitals, 2-0, at Consol Energy Center.
The Capitals' biggest star might have been feeling even worse.
Orpik, a free agent at season's end, manhandled Alex Ovechkin for a second consecutive night. In classic Orpik fashion, he shut down Ovechkin with a physical approach.
His teammates noticed.
"I thought Brooks was excellent tonight," defenseman Rob Scuderi said. "Ovechkin is a tremendous player, and it's not easy being physical against him. But Brooks was great. He really was. He hit him every chance he got. He did a tremendous job of minimizing his impact on the game."
Ovechkin, who leads the NHL in goals and shots on goal, did not register a shot on goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury during the game's first 50 minutes.
In fact, Ovechkin has been silent against the Penguins all season. Orpik mostly played against Ovechkin in all four matchups this regular season. Ovechkin finished with one goal and no assists, while his team stumbled to an 0-4 record.
"Playing against Ovechkin is not easy," said rookie defenseman Olli Maatta, Orpik's defense partner the past week. "Brooks did an unbelievable job the past two nights."
Orpik was credited with seven hits Tuesday and three Monday in Washington. Coach Dan Bylsma said Orpik was more physical Monday.
"He stepped into No. 8 a lot," Bylsma and. "And he was hard with him."
The Penguins played well defensively for a second straight game. This one was different, though. During the game in Washington, the Penguins rarely had the puck but scored on the rush and held defensively.
On Tuesday, the Penguins almost exclusively had the puck through the first two periods.
And on the occasion when Ovechkin seemed to have a glimpse at registering a shot, Orpik was there to deny him.
During the past two games, Orpik blocked five shots, two coming against Ovechkin in Tuesday's third period.
"You kind of know coming into a game against Ovi that he's going to get some chances," left wing Tanner Glass said. "But Brooks hardly gave him anything. His gap (control) was outstanding, and he hit him all night. Brooks was great."
The Penguins received goals from forwards Sidney Crosby and Jussi Jokinen. Crosby recorded points in all four games against the Capitals this season, finishing with seven.
Fleury, meanwhile, earned his 28th career shutout and fifth of the season, which ties a career high. His biggest moment came in the second period when he made an acrobatic save with his right skate on rookie Evgeny Kuznetsov.
Even Fleury, though, was talking about Orpik.
"I'm lucky to have Brooks," he said.
Orpik, who has battled injuries during the past few seasons and is playing without regular partner Paul Martin, hasn't always been at his best this season. But with the playoffs five weeks away, he showed his teammates that, come springtime, he'll be ready.
"This is the kind of game we need to play in the playoffs," Glass said. "And Brooks is the kind of guy who will lead us."

DONALDSONVILLE — The City Council voted 4-0 to approve a land swap deal with Ascension Parish government giving both entities locations for new public service facilities.
Through the intergovernmental agreement approved during Tuesday's council meeting, the city will receive about 3 acres along La. 3089 near the South Louisiana State Fairgrounds, owned by parish government. The city plans to construct a new fire station on the site.
In return, parish government will receive from the city a 5-acre tract of land along Thibaut Drive, where it plans to locate a new public works facility that will serve the parish's west bank.
Councilman Charles Brown Sr. abstained from the vote.
Funding for the new fire station will come from a 5-mill, 10-year property tax dedicated to major capital expenses. The tax, which generates about $100,000 each year and was first approved in 2002, was renewed by voters last April.
The agreement next goes to the Ascension Parish Council for ratification.
Other issues coming before the council included:
ANTI-VIOLENCE EVENT: The council gave its backing to an upcoming anti-violence march through the city.
Street Legal Riders, a Gonzales-based motorcycle club, will host the event, scheduled for 3 p.m. April 28.
Murray Walker, community liaison for the club, said the march will begin at the Donaldsonville Municipal Building, 609 Railroad Ave., and make its way down St. Patrick Street to the Williams & Southall Funeral Home, 101 La. 945 Loop. The theme for the event will be "Living in Peace, Instead of Resting in Peace."
The procession will include members of the Street Legal Riders, a hearse and other vehicles in a mock funeral procession, Walker said.
"The goal is to make people aware of the violence in our city, and that living in peace is a better alternative than ending up in the hearse or spending life behind bars," he said.
An event at the end of the march will feature guest speakers, food and more.

The St. Joseph High School team finds itself in a position it hasn't been in since October 2010: The Wildcats must bounce back from a defeat.
St. Joe's 26-game winning streak ended with a 14-6 loss to Hammonton the night before Thanksgiving. That was St. Joe's first defeat since a 35-0 loss to Holy Spirit on Oct. 1, 2010.
The Wildcats will try to start a new winning streak when they host Hudson Catholic in a state Non-Public I semifinal at 1 p.m. Saturday. St. Joe seeks its fourth straight state title and 15th overall since the state Non-Public playoffs began in 1993.
To advance to another state final, St. Joe will have to slow a player with one of the best first names of anyone playing New Jersey high school football: Running back Champion Smith leads Hudson Catholic.
Key players for Hudson Catholic: Champion Smith, RB; Kevin Albert, QB; Curtis Mullins, WR; Jalen Carter, RB.
Key players for St. Joseph: Anthony Giagunto, QB/DB, 66-of-117 for 876 yards and 10 touchdowns; Cody Sampson, RB, 138 carries for 791 yards; Miles Pease, RB/DB, 110 carries for 521 yards, and four interceptions on defense; Roy Lucas, OL/DL; Kevin Goldsmith, DL, 66 tackles and four sacks; Charles Cade, DL, nine sacks.
Keys to victory: St. Joe needs to refocus after the Hammonton loss and get back to the way it played early in the season. The Wildcats did not play that crisply in wins over St. Augustine Prep and Mainland Regional before the Hammonton defeat. On defense, St. Joe needs to stay disciplined and prevent big plays.

There are strange things with Newsgroup: matching. My setup won't match 24hoursupport with any RE, despite what I thought earlier. I presume it's because my newsserver doesn't include this group, I can match other groups which are served. I don't know why Pan will only match groups which are available from the server, my guess is some kind of optimization by Pan. -- Nigel Wade

Season: 1
Air Date: 11/2/11
Most of American Horror Story's first season ended up being more interested in fetishistic shock value and gross-out gags than traditional scares, but "Halloween Part 2," far and away the strongest hour of the season, fittingly plays up the haunted house aesthetic when Hayden's (Kate Mara) ghost returns to punish Ben (Dylan McDermott) and torment Vivien (Connie Britton) with classic scares like creepy mirror messages and microwave-nuked dogs.
The strongest subplot belongs to Tate (Evan Peters) and Violet (Taissa Farmiga), whose romantic date is interrupted by a group of gorily-dressed teens who claim they know Tate from high school. When Violet (finally) realizes that their bullet holes and mangled bodies aren't actually costumes, she confirms one of the season's most successful plot twists: Tate is a ghost himself, and his dreams of shooting up his school actually happened. His victims are using the Halloween-mandated dead-shall-walk rule to exact revenge on him in the after-life.
The episode ends on a great, melancholy note as Ben and Vivien survive Hayden's attack but their marriage does not, followed by a fantastic shot of the various Murder House ghosts returning to the crib walk-of-shame style, once again confined to haunting within the premises.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have a young woman that has contacted me. She lives in schotland I in maryland. Her father passed away and she is next of kin for his money. She is unable to touch the money until she is 30 years of age she is an adult but not that old yet. She has ask me to act on her behalf with transfering her funds to my account in maryland and having her come here to better her life and education. She wants me to get gardenship of her and have the money placed in my account, with expensies taken out for travel and my compinsaion. She wants to live her and beable to to have access to her money through me. Is this something you can help me with or know someone who can? I am very broke right now and can not aford to pay a lawyer ,once I get acess to my compinsion funds I can then pay for your help.
BEWARE. It is highly likely that this is a scam aimed at getting money from you. Scam emails and letters are happening more and more. Some tip offs are:
1. If the person who contacted you is someone you do not know and have no connection with, it is likely a scam.
2. If the person is suggesting something that is illegal, breaches a contract or goes against the provisions of a Will or Trust, it is likely a scam.
3. If the person asks you to use your bank account to transfer money, I would estimate that the probability that it is a scam at over 99%.
A simple example - you get into this deal and the next thing you know a bank cashier's check for $50,000 arrives. You put it into your bank account and wait until it clears. She then contacts you and tells you to wire her $40,000 and keep $10,000 for your trouble. You do it. 3 weeks later your bank advises you that the check you received was a counterfeit and the bank under commercial law is charging your account. The person you wired the money to is overseas and has disappeared. Your're stuck owing the bank $50,000.
Scams of this nature have been going on longer than you have been alive. Scammers are smart and they will take your money and disappear and you'll never get it back. Lawyers have fallen for these kinds of scams and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
BEWARE, BEWARE and BEWARE again!!Ask a similar question
Completely agree. Well stated. Good information.
I completely agree with Attorney Meng. This is almost certainly a scam. I would send this to your trash bin, unless this is someone that you know personally. I would not send any money, I would not accept and money in your account with instructions to wire funds. If you think that this *might* be legitimate, which is doubtful, your next step should be to contact a lawyer to investigate this for you.

ASK A QUESTION what does compraste mean?

what does ''compraste'' mean? is it comprar, buy? thank you!
2 Answers
You are exactly right. It indeed comes from the verb "comprar" (to buy).
Compraste is the second person singular, familiar form of the verb comprar in the preterit tense, indicative mood.
Compraste ---> you (familiar) bought

It means "You bought". It is the preterit tense of "comprar" in the "tú" form--that is, if you want to be technical with your grammar .

From Weyerbacher:
Eighteen years! What a ride! We started life as a tiny self-distributed production brewery with a focus on tasty English beers. In the beginning we were producing under 2,000 kegs in total output (1,000 barrels). We opened a pub in '98, moved to a bigger facility in '01, acquired additional spaces between '04 and '09, built an addition in '12 all the while obtaining better and more efficient equipment and hiring more and more staff! We've won some pretty serious awards, including but not limited to a Great American Beer Festival Gold Medal (in the Specialty Honey Beer Category, GABF Category: 11). If Weyerbacher was a person, we'd be eligible to join the military, buy smokes… but we still can't drink or rent a car.
"Eighteen." Yes, we are very creative with the names of our beers. Well, we were very creative. Our 10th anniversary (our first anniversary beer) was called Decadance. How badass did we think we were? Gold stars all around! Then, the next year, the wheels on the creativity bus fell off and we went straight to pun-free numbers.
At 11.1% ABV, Eighteen is a big Weizenbock; a "Weizendoppelbock" to be perfectly clear! The malt bill is entirely German: Wheat, Munich, Pils, Carawheat and Chocolate wheat. Eighteen's nose is reminiscent of a big dark Belgian-style ale with a touch of smokiness. The color is a hazy deep brown. Eighteen features a complex combination of dark fruit and bready malts with chocolate flavors that are perfectly balanced with spicy phenols and banana esters. This unfiltered and bottle-conditioned ale has a creamy, textured mouthfeel and a warming finish. Eighteen is available in ⅙ barrel kegs and 12 oz bottles for a limited time only. This beer will age very nicely, yielding more dark fruits as time passes!
