Fulvestrant (Faslodex) is approved for postmenopausal women with a certain type of breast cancer, called hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. If the cancer is not responsive to tamoxifen, then fulvestrant is an option. Fulvestrant is given once a month as a shot in the gluteal muscle.
Estrogen's Role
Like the medicines tamoxifen, fulvestrant is classified as anti-estrogen therapy. These drugs are designed to treat the forms of breast cancer that are sensitive to the hormone estrogen. In such cases, there are estrogen receptors on the outside of the breast cancer cells. These receptors take in estrogen, which stimulates their growth.
Each anti-estrogen drug works by a slightly different mechanism, making it possible for these drugs to be used in sequence. This means that doctors have more weapons to fight breast cancer, and they may be able to control the cancer for a longer period of time. Tamoxifen blocks estrogen from reaching the estrogen receptor in breast cancer cells. Fulvestrant destroys estrogen receptors in breast cancer cells.
Side Effects
The most common side effects include:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Constipation
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Headache
- Back pain
- Weakness
- Hot flashes
- Sore throat
Who Should Not Take Fulvestrant?
You will not be able to take fulvestrant if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Are allergic to any of the ingredients
Tell your doctor about any medicines, including over-the-counter medicines and herbs and supplements, before starting fulvestrant.

From WENN.com
Galliano was fired from his job as the head designer at Christian Dior after hurling anti-Semitic abuse at a couple during a night out in Paris, France.
He admitted he was battling a drink problem and has spent the last two years recovering, and now De La Renta has offered him the opportunity of returning to past glories.
Galliano has been working on the designer's autumn/winter 2013 collection, which will be previewed at New York Fashion Week on Tuesday (12Feb13), and De La Renta hopes to extend the temporary contract.
He tells New York Magazine, ""I would love for him to stay. Will he? I cannot tell you that today because we haven't gone that far in really discussing it. The fact is, we work very differently in New York than in Paris. It's night and day. We work at a much faster pace. So the answer is we don't know. We're still exploring.
""I think John is one of the most talented men I've ever met. I like him very much. I also believe that everyone should have a second chance, especially someone as talented as John. And he has worked so hard on his recovery.""

Motorcraft oil filters are specifically designed for Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. Each Motorcraft oil filter, including the popular Motorcraft FL-1A, uses as many as 12 high-quality components.
Construction features include:
* Steel cases: "Ironed" for a precise fit, fluted to ease removal, and painted for rust-resistance
* Pressure relief valve: When it's cold outside, or if the filters become clogged, oil flow through the filters can be reduced. If this happens, the relief valve opens to provide a continuous oil supply. Its design also minimizes the chance of contaminated oil recirculating back
* Anti-drainback valve: This feature keeps oil in the filters to prevent "dry starts" after your engine has been turned off. It's made with specially formulated materials that resist the aging effects that an engine's heat can cause
* Efficient filter media: Re-engineered media increases Motorcraft filters' dirt-collecting capabilities, allowing them to capture more engine-harming particles than ever before

Building Green to Beat Peak Demand
Archived News, Posted on 22 Jun 2011
Building green to beat peak demand
Much of the electricity network's capacity exists to cater for peaks in power usage, typically for a few hours each year on summer weekday afternoons. If we are going to transition to a more sustainable energy supply system we will need to think smarter about how we address 'peak demand.'
Do we build more grid infrastructure which lets electricity usage increase, or do we try to curb or 'shave' demand at the peaks; and prevent demand increases?
Recent research from the commercial buildings sector shows cause for encouragement: it is becoming clear that as existing office buildings' improve their energy ratings, they also curb peak demand.
This has important implications for climate change response and the economy. The current economic outlook for the electricity network is fairly clear – over $46 billion in spending for electricity network infrastructure is planned across Australia for the next five years, and roughly $7.6 billion of this is for new capital expenditure on networks to manage growing peak demand in NSW.
The research, appearing today on Green Buildings Alive, analysed the numbers on 2008 electricity data from 25 Sydney CBD buildings, and found that as buildings improve their NABERS Energy rating (NABERS is the National Built Environment Rating System), there is an associated reduction in peak demand.
An uplift from the Sydney average of 2.5 (NABERS) stars to 5 stars will, on average, more than halve a building's overall energy consumption, and bring its peak demand down by a quarter.
The peak reduction from increasing the average NABERS rating for Sydney CBD's commercial buildings from 2.5 to 3 stars would be equivalent to "turning off" approximately 13 large office buildings.
Recognising the potential network capacity benefit of improving office building energy efficiency, a more holistic approach to energy supply and energy management, offers significant advantages. There is growing evidence that 'greener' buildings benefit tenants by lowering energy bills, improving worker comfort and enhancing corporate reputations. This new research suggests that they can be good for the grid, too.
If energy companies have to spend less on networks, consumers should reap savings because about 13 per cent of the typical Sydney office building's electricity bill is for peak "capacity charges" and 32 per cent is for network energy charges.
At the Investa Sustainability Institute, we are concerned with buildings and the environmental impact of their operation. These results illustrate the significant interrelationships between office buildings and the infrastructure servicing them.
However, one year of data for 25 buildings cannot comprehensively model the office space for a city of Sydney's scale. For this reason the Institute has been entering into the field of public data-sharing to help discover exactly where buildings need more attention, providing better information for occupants, and informing the adjustments necessary to improve ratings. That data is now online for anyone to access.
Companies should not be afraid of opening the doors to some of their environmental data, particularly in property and real estate, where huge financial savings can be made by understanding and responding to environmental trends in buildings.
As this study into peak demand indicates, pursuing energy efficiency in buildings can lead to lower operational expenditure, reduced network expansion and ultimately reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Craig Roussac is director of the Investa Sustainability Institute, which launched Green Buildings Alive in 2010 to foster greater transparency for building sustainability

The Tumi Difference
Omega Closure System®
Tumi's patented closure system significantly reduces the risk of damage to the zipper. The Omega zipper puller is designed to break away from the bag if it becomes caught. The puller, rather than the entire zipper, is then quickly and easily replaced.
Tumi Tracer®
The Tumi Tracer® is an exclusive, complimentary program that helps reunite Tumi customers with their lost or stolen items. The core of the program is a unique 20-digit individual product number printed on a special metal plate that is permanently affixed to Tumi products. That number, along with the owners contact information, is entered into our Tracer database when a bag is registered with us, and used to help aid in the recovery of lost or stolen items that are reported to us.
X-Brace 45® Handle System
This patented, innovative handle tube system protects the telescopic handle of the travel case. It is made from lightweight-yet-sturdy aircraft-grade aluminum that forms a protective, impact-absorbing structure around telescoping handle tubes within the case. This feature virtually eliminates damage to the handle tubes while reducing the overall weight of the case.
This bag is especially designed for convenient, lightweight mobility, while meeting Tumis rigorous durability standards for checked luggage.

Romney faces twofold challenge in getting campaign back on trackBy Karen Tumulty, The Washington Post
As Mitt Romney struggles to put a cascade of missteps behind him, the Republican presidential nominee faces a twofold challenge: first, to steer the conversation back to the economy, and second, to prevent his recent difficulties from curdling into a perception that the race is becoming unwinnable.Read more
Democrats wield "the 47 percent" as new weaponBy Alexis Simendinger, Real Clear Politics
"The 47 percent" became a political catchphrase Tuesday as Democrats reacted with private glee and public head-shaking to Mitt Romney's secretly videotaped comment that Americans who don't pay income taxes believe they're "entitled" to government help.Read more
Wisconsin offers window into challenges facing RomneyBy Jeff Zeleny and Marjorie Connelly, The New York Times
To Mitt Romney, the 10 electoral votes in Wisconsin may be more essential than extra, a critical backup plan if a first-tier battleground state falls out of reach. Seven weeks until the election, with Mr. Romney facing new questions about his ability to gain trust among voters experiencing economic hardships, his campaign is increasingly pointing to Wisconsin as a place where a statewide Republican resurgence could rub off on Mr. Romney.Read more
Sep 18, 2012
Romney's '47 percent' talk explains his struggles with swing votersBy Jim Tankersley, National Journal
On pure philosophy alone, Mitt Romney's Mother Jones moment offers two revealing glimpses into why he's trailing President Obama even in a listless economy. Both revolve around how swing voters view economic policy.Read more
Mitt Romney's real test: First presidential debateBy Dan Balz, The Washington Post
September swoons are nothing new in presidential politics. Look back at almost any competitive election and you'll find one of the candidates hitting turbulence — and pointed second-guessing — at this time of the year.Read more
Mitt Romney not impressed with Barack Obama's China complaintBy Charles Babington and Julie Pace, Associated Press
President Barack Obama lodged an unfair-trade complaint against China Monday and immediately used it as a wedge against Republican challenger Mitt Romney, whose beleaguered campaign hit another pothole — in the form of private remarks made to donors — just as it was trying to reassure anxious supporters.Read more
Top Romney strategist Stuart Stevens likely to stay despite criticismBy Nia-Malika Henderson, The Washington Post
Stuart Stevens, Mitt Romney's chief campaign strategist, has emerged as the main target of finger-pointing within the presidential candidate's brain trust amid criticism of the campaign's direction from many Republicans and a slip in swing-state polls.Read more
Iranian official says blasts targeted nuclear sitesBy David E. Sanger and Rick Gladstone, The New York Times
Iran's most senior atomic energy official revealed on Monday that separate explosions, which he attributed to sabotage, had targeted power supplies to the country's two main uranium enrichment facilities, including the deep underground site that American and Israeli officials say is the most invulnerable to bombing.Read more

Mideast unrest intensifies debate on U.S. intervention in SyriaBy Helene Cooper and Robert F. Worth, The New York Times
In recent weeks, the growing death toll in Syria pushed that country's civil war to the top of the Obama administration's agenda, with some Arab leaders pressing harder for a greater American role in toppling Syria's leader, Bashar al-Assad.Read more
Romney vs. Obama on foreign policyBy Doyle McManus, Los Angeles Times
In a presidential campaign dominated by voters' unhappiness with the economy, it took a tragedy — the killing of a U.S. ambassador by Libyan extremists — to prompt a real debate on foreign policy.Read more
Post-Arab Spring states: magnets for extremismBy James Kitfield and Sara Sorcher, National Journal
When the Arab awakening swept through the Middle East last year, with waves of democratic protesters swallowing tyrants in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya, no one could confidently predict what kind of political order would emerge from the ruins. Certainly the stability of the old order of autocracies was shattered, hopefully along with their characteristic corruption and stagnation. In the long term, there is still reason to hope for a democratic transformation similar to the one that eventually emerged in Eastern Europe at the end of the Cold War.Read more from National Journal
Obama hold slight edgeBy Charles Babington, Associated Press
Middle East violence is shaking up a presidential race that otherwise looks stubbornly stable, and tight. President Barack Obama holds a tiny edge, Republican Mitt Romney is seeking a breakthrough message, and three debates are ahead in the campaign's final seven weeks.Read more

Amid Mideast turmoil, aides say what a President Romney would doBy David E. Sanger and Ashley Parker, The New York Times
If Mitt Romney were in the Oval Office during this week of turmoil in the Middle East, his foreign policy advisers said on Thursday, he would have already told Iran that he would not allow it to get close to building a bomb, setting a "red line" in a far different place from President Obama's.Read more
Poll: Obama holds narrow edge over RomneyBy Jeff Zeleny, The New York Times
President Obama holds a narrow three-point advantage over Mitt Romney among Americans most likely to vote in November, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.Read more
Obama has clear leads over Romney, new polls showBy John Harwood, CNBC
President Obama has opened clear leads over Mitt Romney in three critical battlegrounds of the November election, according to new polls by NBC News, The Wall Street Journal, and Marist College.Read more
Machine-gun BernankeBy Jim Tankersley, National Journal
It is almost impossible to imagine the Federal Reserve, as currently constituted, acting more aggressively to speed up the economy than it did Thursday afternoon. After months of tinkering with monetary policy on the margins of an ongoing American jobs crisis, amid escalating cries that Ben Bernanke had run out of weapons to fight unemployment, the Fed has unleashed a full and sustained burst of monetary stimulus.Read more from National Journal
Romney's dark worldviewBy James Kitfield, National Journal
In the homestretch of the campaign, Mitt Romney has offered enticing clues to anyone trying to decipher his essential worldview and foreign-policy lodestar. In two recent instances, Romney doubled down on positions that place him well to the right of the Obama administration, and firmly in the mold crafted by hawks and neoconservatives in the first term of President George W. Bush.Read more from National Journal
Foreign policy's moment in Campaign 2012By Dan Balz, The Washington Post
Campaign 2012 has produced plenty of flash points, some real and some manufactured. Few have hit with as much fury, outrage, second-guessing and doubling down as the clash between Mitt Romney and President Obama over the terrible events in the Middle East that left four Americans dead, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens.Read more
Sep 13, 2012
Egypt may be bigger concern than Libya for White HouseBy Helene Cooper, The New York Times
For all the harrowing images of the deadly attack on the American mission in Benghazi, the Obama administration is grappling with the possibility that its far bigger long-term problem lies in Egypt, not Libya.Read more
Amid foreign-policy crisis, Romney picks a big fightBy Major Garrett, National Journal
Mitt Romney has picked a big fight fraught with political risks amid an ongoing foreign-policy crisis with heartbreaking and murderous consequences for the U.S. diplomatic corps.Read more from National Journal

Suede Launch Cape Town
On Friday the 1st of October, Shelflife was hosting the official launch of the Puma Suede in South Africa! The Suede made its first appearance in 1968 at the Mexico Olympics, and has grown from strength to strength ever since. Its roots lie deep in the heritage of street and hiphop culture ever since it was adopted by B-boys in the mid 70's. In South Africa the Suede played a big part in the mid 80's in the skate scene being the most hard wearing flat bottom sneaker.
