I wanna say that never happens, but... I've never been to a con dressed as a brony. (Yes, I am still in the 'brony' closet. Eventually, I'll tell my friends about it. Hopefully they'll be supportive.)
For those who haven't figured it out, this comic is attempting to use gender reversal to lampoon what reportedly often happens to female attendees at other, typically-male-dominated conventions such as video game or comic book conventions - IE, the girls are harassed or maligned as not being "real" geeks, perhaps only being there for attention, etc. However it falls flat because the brony in this comic doesn't really act like a guy would be expected to act. It's a commendable motivation, but the execution is lacking. As noted earlier in this comment thread, too many guys would LIKE girls to come on to them in such a way.
I wish I was a brony now...
Me too, Zip. Me too. *snf*
Also, it's great to see you someplace other than GamePolitics. I'm a long-time lurker and haven't signed on in a long while, but I still visit to keep up with current events and people's reactions to some things. :)
OT: I'm not sure whether this is sarcasm (most likely) or reality (it'd be surprising if it was), and whether to be offended or excited... I mean, I know there's a statement about the treatment of women/"girl gamers" in here somewhere; the parody and sarcasm just feel so heavy, it just feels as if this conversation was just played straight...And if that's the case, then it truly is weird...
I has confusion. 8S
I'dunno, Sexual Harassment Fluttershy is pretty cool, but I have to say I greatly prefer Cigar Chomping Rainbow Dash.
Yes, that's it! Thank you, Gasbandit! Couldn't have said it better...Tried, but...blegh.
I honestly don't get it...
I don't really understand the characters, nor what's going on.
I can assure you this doesn't happen
The Brony community is indeed dominated by males (a head count of my local Brony group shows 1/3 female 2/3 male).
I imagine this comic is trying to get us to think about how silly it is to question people's motives for being at cons by reversing the gender stereotypes and getting us to think about it. T
However, I did go to my last convention as a pretty good Fluttershy and didn't get sexually harassed at all, Bronies are all pretty nice people so I just got loads of brohooves ^_^
The female Bronies I know (we don't use the term Pegasisters because why should our gender matter when it comes to being part of a fanbase) may be on the lookout for a cute male Brony to get together with, but there's only two of us girls going to August's convention and we're already in relationships!
Sorry guys, you won't be getting mobbed by us ^_^
So, Brony Con UK, anyone?
The real controversy is that Derpy sold out and I didn't get one.
It does.
A lot.
There never seems to be a con go by without some form of drama.
Kinda makes me glad for once that the UK exists solely inside the M25 as far as the world's concerned.
While your point was duly noted, that comic still gave me a huge boner.
I don't know a single guy that would want a girl to come on to them in that manner...
I'm sure there are women who exploit male geek attention to promote their modelling career. There are obvious cases like some women who were at the con to promote their salon by only wearing superhero body paint and tiny patches covering their naughty bits (They had no interest in comics by their own admission) and they complained about being ejected from the con.
there is NO WAY to separate regular cosplayers from ''geeky people'' without it turning into some sort of fascist regime and futher promoting the idea that women aren't playing video games when we are. Female cosplayers should be left alone.
It annoys the crap out of me when someone sexily roleplays a character like an underwear model that I personally see to be a tough badass but I would never think of questioning that persons 'geek cred.' If they have put the time and effort into the cosplay then they must at least care about the game on some level.
Booth Babes are totally a different matter the industry needs to get rid of them to stop promoting this boys club mentality. I know you guys like them but they personally seriously make me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome (like I'm sure some oiled hunky guy in a speedo handing out flyers would make some of you guys feel). There's nothing like being reminded you aren't the main demographic in the most skeevy way possible.
I thought this was an analogy on how female gamers are treated.
Now now, I don't plan to SFO anything today because I found this rather funny actually. Have I really got that bad a rep? Also, it's toastiest! Not toasted :P
Dat satire... Was really, really good. XD Oh God, this is my new favorite comic from you guys ever. High fives all around!
You've heard from at least 5 in this thread alone.
Sexual advances towards bronies by females?
Excuse me, I have hours of little girls television I have to familiarize myself with.
Yes, but he also says:
No amount of him blatantly trying to wriggle his point of view around to make it sound good will make up for this. He's just attacked some women for going out of their way to look attractive in the same paragraph as he's insulting their appearance. He's acting insulted that women are doing their best to look good and aiming for a group that they feel (correctly or not) has lower standards, while doing his best to demolish their self esteem. Can you see the problem there?
I'm just saying, it's a pretty shitty attitude when you feel that you can repeatedly insult someone just because you imagine that they have the wrong motives.
Here, look at this:
"6 of 9s" is such an impossibly misogynistic term I can't even get my head around it. He's insulting women for daring to attempt to appear more attractive than he believes they are. I mean fucking hell, talk about giving people self-image issues! "Think you're attractive just because other people act like you're attractive when you make an effort to look good? Well you're not! You're just a 6, and don't you dare dream of being any higher than the level I've designated you at!".
It's just... Even if you agree that there are women who purposefully dress up for conventions in order to get attention (which I doubt anyway; for money, yes, for attention, no) even though they don't care about nerdy stuff, why does that give you the right to mock their appearance?
I know I keep rambling back and forth here, but I just stare at that article and it seems to drip misogyny, despite (and partly because) of how frequently he dips into phrases like "it's not all women" and "some of my best friends are women".
At least you have a rep!
That being said, I was just poking fun, heh. I did however, have to guess on your username. I seriously could not remember if you were merely toasted or the toastiest of the toasted. After I wrote that, I had to go look you up.
In short, fixed!
This strip was beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. Today you are my heroes.
Then I read the comments and they're like DURP IS THIS A THING THAT HAPPENS I DIDN'T KNOW and it brings tears to my eyes for normal, weeping for mankind style reasons.
Im too tired to get it can somebody explain it to me?
Yep, this.
Nobody gets to decide whether or not someone is `geeky enough` to be there or not.
Main story boring as hell and taking way too long? Throw in some ponies for some lazy link bait. That said, it's well done link bait. I see what you did there.
Yeah, I have to agree with you on that "DURP" point. If this was a thing that really happens, what would the joke be? "HERE IS SOME UNCONVENTIONAL SEXISM, PLEASE LAUGH NOW."
Jacob: If bronies get girls hitting on them like that, I want to be one.
Note to self: Make an avatar dedicated to MLP, put it on a shirt, never take off said shirt.
Edit: Only kidding! Hopefully Jackie doesn't read my post.
Jackie: You'd have to do a lot more than that to get me hitting on you...
Wait women like My Little Pony fans..? I know my niece likes that I'll watch it but shes 6 and it's so much better than Spongebob.
Also, I am not a bronie; I just think its a good show, at least the first season I haven't watched the second one yet.
nice one, really nice one. :) keep it up!
thumbs up 2 Phasmal and Co.
I laughed because I've been in that situation and it's not as fun as the guys here are probably expecting it to be :D
Bah Stupid sexy mudcrab will always be the best.
If "bronies" actually got treated that way, every guy in the world would pretend to be into My Little Pony.
It's fun to watch and people like watching fun/entertaining things?
"At cons, not only are Bronies subjected to numerous unwanted sexual advances, some critics have even questioned their motives for attending such gatherings in the first place."
This... this is a joke, right? Are there really people there who have seen bronies being hit on? This HAS to be a joke, I just cannot believe this is legit, being a fan myself. I just don't buy this to be true.
Did... did you just miss the last three comics? They've been done that story for a while.
I had no idea this kind of thing happened. Seems like the reverse of the whole fake gamer girl phenomenon.

Sen. Shaheen tells UNH class that student loan debt exceeds U.S. credit card debtBy GRETYL MACALASTER
Special to the Union Leader
February 24. 2014 5:32PM
DURHAM — U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., visited a political science classroom at the University of New Hampshire on Monday to discuss the issue of student loan debt.
Nearly every student in the introduction to American government class indicated they had student loan debt, most of it from federal loans, and most expressed worry about how they will pay off those debts when they graduate.
Shaheen said student loan debt is higher than credit card debt in the nation, and New Hampshire ranks second in the nation in the amount of student loan debt individuals carry — on average $33,000.
She said addressing the student loan debt issue will benefit not only students, but the local and national economies.
Shaheen said she has been trying to address the issue of student loan debt since she arrived in Washington in 2009, and there have been some successes.
The size of Pell grants was increased, a proposal to increase the interest rate on federal Stafford loans failed to pass,and a change was made to the federal loan program to get rid of "middlemen," which has saved about $68 million, some of which has gone back into scholarships and financial aid for students, Shaheen said.
She also plans to introduce legislation to expand the portal through which students can check on their student loan debt in one place, instead of through multiple sites.
She said a cap was also passed on repayment of loans to 10 percent of what an individual is making.
Shaheen also took questions from the students, few of which related to the issue of student loan debt. One student questioned why members of Congress were excluding themselves from the Affordable Care Act, something Shaheen said is simply false information. Shaheen said she is on Medicare, as are many other legislators, but others have signed up for the ACA, primarily through the D.C. exchange.
Another student asked about partisanship in Washington, which Shaheen said is one of the things she has found frustrating since she got to Washington.
She provided examples of ways she has reached across the aisle to work with senators from around the country on a variety of issues, including energy and a proposal for a biennial instead of annual budget process. She's also worked with U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., on issues related to the military and veterans.
She also addressed gridlock in Washington, citing primaries, the extent to which congressmen and women travel home from Washington instead of moving their families there and getting to know other legislators, and how 24/7 press coverage and pundits influence the gridlock by providing antagonistic rhetoric about various issues.
She said the money in politics has been an issue.
Only a few students indicated they planned to stay in New Hampshire after graduation. Shaheen said she hopes more students consider staying, and also spoke briefly about the need for graduates in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, or STEM. In 2018, New Hampshire is going to need about 4,800 STEM graduates, she said.
After the event, when asked about the importance of the 18- to 25-year-old vote in her reelection campaign, Shaheen said young people played an important role in 2008, when she was first elected to the Senate, and again in 2012.
She said even though this is not a presidential election year, she hopes students understand it is still an important election.

Indoor Cost of Tribute brings tears to those in Rochester search of fallen, friendsBy JOHN QUINN
Union Leader Correspondent
October 06. 2013 8:56PM
ROCHESTER — The Vietnam War ended decades ago, but many people continue to struggle with its residual effects.
Since it arrived at American Legion Post 7 on Eastern Ave., Thursday, hundreds of area residents have visited the Indoor Cost of Freedom Tribute, which includes a 100-foot double-sized replica of the Vietnam Memorial Wall
Post Commander Bob Talbot said the opening ceremonies were "standing room only" as veterans, city officials, the Spaulding High School Red Raider Marching Band and Junior Air Force JROTC team filled the hall Thursday evening.
Since then, the display has continued to draw interest, especially for residents of nursing homes, veterans, and those who have ties to the war.
Teri Whitter, a member of Post 7 Women's Auxiliary, said there has been a steady stream of visitors, and many took advantage of the quieter night-time hours.
"I think people have been impressed," Whitter said.
Talbot said a few visitors became very emotional at the tribute, recalling a fellow post member who he's known for years, but didn't know he lost family — in this case an older cousin — in Vietnam.
"He went to look at the wall and he broke down," Talbot said, adding eventually the man was able to talk about his "cooler older cousin" who was 19 when he deployed to Vietnam.As the man never traveled to Washington D.C., this was the first time he was able to find his cousin's name on the wall, said Talbot.
"If you've never been to D.C. to that closure, it's something," Talbot said, adding the double-sided indoor replica of the Vietnam Memorial Wall is just as stirring.
Talbot, who's visited Washington several times, said he was compelled to pay his respects at the national monuments for veterans of the Korean War and World War II.
As the Rochester replica is flat and not embossed like the Vietnam Memorial Wall, Talbot said visitors could receive a printout of the names rather than get a rubbing of them. He added this display helps many people remember friends and family.
He said he was impressed with the presentation because it included details of past wars, tributes to police and firefighters, the names of troops who have died — especially in Iraq and Afghanistan — since 2000, and the names of those who died Sept. 11, 2001.
"We can reach out to more of the community," Talbot said, adding this was a great way forpeople to visualize the cost of war.
Talbot said students from area schools took part in a contest to answer questions and write an essay about the tribute.
He added younger residents may feel a closer tie to the events of Sept. 11, or the ongoing Global War on Terrorism tribute, which continues to expand.

Gereedschappen die in deze demontage worden gebruikt
We got our hands on the fourth generation of iPad; we shall call it iPad 4. The iPad 4 is kind of like a fourth book added on to a trilogy: its release was a bit sudden and unexpected, but it's a part of the group, nonetheless. This fourth iteration of iPad shares a lot of similarities with the previous version, so instead of our traditional, exploratory teardown, we're going to play "spot the differences" by illustrating all the changes from the last generation.
Need more teardowns in your life? Follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook, or subscribe to our YouTube channel. Heck, you could even do all three!
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
Apple has stunned the tech world once again. A mere 7 months after the announcement of the iPad 3, the iPad 4 was introduced on October 23, 2012.
Tech Specs:
Dual-core A6X processor with quad-core GPU
9.7 inch LCD, backlit in-plane switching LED with 2048×1536 pixel Retina display
16, 32, or 64 GB flash memory (at launch)
5 MP rear-facing camera
Lightning connector
One of the major differences between the 3rd and 4th generation iPads is the connector. The 3rd gen (top) has the 30-pin dock connector, while the 4th gen (bottom) has the Lightning connector.
The iPad 4 has a new model number, A1458.
Continuing the trend, this iPad is glued shut. This isn't our first adhesive-riddled iPad, and we've been working to figure out how to make the painful opening process a lot easier.
Our heated-up iOpener lets us apply heat just where it's needed, softening the troublesome adhesive. Once we've snuck a few guitar picks in the seam, we're nearly home-free.
****There is a new ribbon that is connected to the home button. Be cautious when opening the bottom left corner as to not tear it.
With the adhesive out of the way, we open up the iPad.
As expected, this stage looks no different from the previous generation.
Now that the hard part is out of the way, it's time for a break with a hot cup of drinking chocolate.
As opposed to the Samsung display we found in the iPad 3, the new iPad LCD is manufactured by LG.
Apple has reportedly been working to move away from Samsung as a primary supplier, so this LG display is not surprising. However, Apple often relies on multiple suppliers for a single component, meaning there are quite likely other LCD manufacturers lurking inside other iPad 4s.
Continuing to examine differences in the LCD cables…
Well, Apple used a different color Sharpie.
We lift up the LCD to reveal the battery.
The battery is labeled with the same model number (A1389) as in the last round, so it's no surprise that it's another 3.7 V, 43 Whr package.
Like the iPad 3, the battery is adhered very securely to the rear case. Since batteries are consumables that wear out, the trend of glued-in, hard-to-access batteries in iPads and other Apple devices is unfortunate.
Skipping ahead to the good stuff, we get a quick look at the biggest improvement in the iPad 4—the A6X and its supporting hardware:
Apple A6X Processor
Hynix H2JTDG8UD2MBR 16 GB NAND Flash
Apple 338S1116 Cirrus Logic Audio Codec
343S0622-A1 Dialog Semi PMIC
Apple 338S1077 Cirrus Logic Class D Audio Amplifier
The backside of the board, however, boasts no dramatic improvements:
Broadcom BCM5974 Touch Screen Controller
Broadcom BCM5973A1 Touch Screen Controller
Texas Instruments CD3240B0 Touch Screen Line Driver
2 x 4Gb Elpida LP DDR2 = 1 GB DRAM in separate packages in a 64-bit configuration
2 x Fairchild BCHAH/FDMC Voltage Regulator / Reference
Murata 339S0171 Broadcom BCM4334 WiFi Module
Was wondering what the name of a part is, as I am looking for it but am unable to find due to the fact I don't know its proper name....
The part that on one end is attached to the ribbon for the headphone goes across the top and on the other end the power and volume buttons plug in to get there power.....HRLP IN DESPERATE NEED TO KNOW
Apple didn't save any space by switching to the smaller Lightning connector (lower); rather they let the Lightning cable sit in a frame the same size as the 30-pin dock connector (upper).
If you're new to our site, we'll let you in on a little secret: we love our 54 Bit Driver Kit. It makes quick work freeing the Lightning connector, even with a couple of hard to find screws.
There is a bit of adhesive holding the connector in, but nothing compared to some adhered components we've seen before.
Repair techs, DIY-ers, and clumsy iPad-users, rejoice! The Lightning connector is on its very own ribbon cable, meaning that procuring a replacement connector should be fairly inexpensive.
Despite looking almost identical in this shot, we do spot one more difference between the 3rd (top) and 4th (bottom) generations: the front-facing camera!
We've got a 1.2MP FaceTime HD camera, with the ability to shoot 720p HD video. That's a big improvement from the .3MP FaceTime camera in the iPad 3.
Compared to the iPad 3, this camera is actually slightly thicker (an extra .4 mm), but it still manages to fit into the same space.
iPad 4 Repairability Score: 2 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)
The LCD is easy to remove once the front panel is gone.
The battery is not soldered to the logic board, making the replacement process a tad less difficult.
Just like in the iPad 2 & 3, the front panel is glued to the rest of the device, greatly increasing the chances of cracking the glass when trying to remove it.
Gobs, gobs, and gobs of adhesive hold everything in place, including the prone-to-start-a-fire-if-punctured battery.
The LCD has foam sticky tape adhering it to the front panel, increasing chances of it being shattered during disassembly.
You can't access the front panel's connector until you remove the LCD.

Be careful with the home button flex!
I know! I tore mine. Does anyone know where to get a replacement?
can the home button flex be torn taking the glass out or is it if your trying to remove the flex it's self.
keith -
I assume also from because they dont comment on the glass that it is the same as the ipad 3 glass?
keith -
the home button flex got me too on a ipad mini 3
grip a phone an swap it
Bufu -
Be careful when removing glass - home button and touch panel ribbons are located to the bottom left side of the ipad. I've just taken my apart to clean screen from dust . It was easy. Regret I haven't done it earlier, as soon as saw first dust particles, as it had permanently scratched the lcd. But those scratches / dots are still transparent.

dandesign2010 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 96 designs submitted by 15 freelance designers.
Dan Sullivan Photography
I began photographing nature before finding an interest in weddings. Now, as a professional wedding photographer, I create a story with my photos in a non-traditional way. Whenever possible, I will incorporate nature into my wedding photography. For example, I love to photograph the bride and groom in outdoor locations like the beach, under a tree, etc... I also have experience photographing couples UNDER water! I often see nature/ wildlife when shooting a wedding, even when I'm not looking for it. I then try to incorporate the nature into the wedding story...
I am targeting Brides! They would ideally be between 20 and 45 years old, educated, affluent, and hip. My target lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, California primarily, but I will also be trying to attract business nationally and internationally. I am trying to attract high-end clients, and so my logo should reflect that... I want a logo that people will recognize quickly and easily.
I am looking for something simple, easy-to-read, yet professional, sophisticated and elegant.
I like the idea of a lotus flower (which grows in water)... I am not "married" to this concept though! Please feel free to create something original... I am primarily interested in a nature element in this logo like a flower or flower head, leaf, feather, bird ocean or tree...? But NOT too ornate or feminine.
My logo must be separated from my business name; not touching.
I would prefer the logo consist of neutral colors, and I prefer gray or earth tones, but again, I am open to your ideas. I am re-working my website to be white.
It should not look like a cartoon...
Please do not use stock photos or clip art in the logo...
The logo should be CMYK vector .eps file for print and a RGB psd for my web site.
Here is an example of another logo that I like: http://portraits.halbergphotographers.com/
Thanks for your help!

Women Fourth, Men Eighth at NCAA West Region Cross Country Meet
Women's Results (pdf) | Men's Results (pdf)
TEMPE, Ariz. - The Arizona State cross country teams competed in the NCAA West Region Championships Saturday at Blue Lake Park in Portland, Ore., with the women capturing fourth place and the men taking eighth. Amy Hastings (So., Leavenworth, Kan.) continued her sensational season as she crossed the finish in second place to pace the women while Aaron Aguayo (So., Phoenix) led the men with his 28th-place finish.
The Top 2 teams in each region earn automatic berths into the NCAA Championships. The women's entries went to winner Stanford (45 points) and UCLA (69) with Washington (94), ASU (112) and UC Santa Barbara (175) rounding out the Top 5. The Cardinal men won in convincing fashion with 18 points and will be joined at the national meet by Cal Poly (110). The Top 5 was completed by Arizona (132), Washington (162) and Oregon (164) with the Sun Devils in eighth with 189 points. Both Sun Devil squads will learn if they are one of 13 at-large selections when the NCAA announces the complete field Monday.
Hastings clocked a time of 20:22 to capture second place and continue the success she has enjoyed all season. To date, Hastings has won two races and finished second, third and fourth overall as well. As a Top 25 finisher, Hastings earned all-region honors and was joined on the team by fellow Sun Devils Anna Masinelli (So., Scottsdale, Ariz.), 7th place at 20:42, and Desiree Davila (Jr., Chula Vista, Calif.), 15th place at 20:54. True freshmen Corey Randall (Cincinnati) and Jessica Crate (Brights Grove, Ontario) finished 33rd and 61st, respectively, to round out the team scoring for ASU. Also competing in the race were Liz Lindgren (So., Klamath Falls, Ore.) and Amanda Lyon (So., Phoenix), who finished 72nd and 86th, respectively.
'The women ran pretty well today,' Walt Drenth, ASU head coach, said. 'Our Top 3 runners ran exceptionally well and Corey Randall and Liz Lindgren both had good races. Amanda Lyon, who was nursing a foot injury, was still able to finish the race and that shows the determination she has to help the team succeed. Now, we have to wait and see if we make the national meet. I feel with how well we have done this year, we should make the field.'
For the third time this season, Aguayo led the charge as he clipped the tape at 30:27 with teammates Roger Cahill (So., Glendale, Ariz.) and Ryan Warrenburg (So., Franklin, Ind.) finishing just two (30th) and three (31st) spots behind him, respectively. J.J. Duke (Jr., Clovis, Calif.) took 41st place and Juan Reyes (Jr., Phoenix) finished 59th to round out the scoring. Kal Clark (Fr., Louisville, Ky.) took 75th in his first regional race while team veteran Dan Maher (Sr., Tucson, Ariz.) captured 85th in the meet.
'It was not a bad run by the men's team today,' Drenth said. 'It is very disappointing for the athletes and for me that we did not finish higher. We trained well all year and did the things we needed to do to stay in shape and avoid injuries. Juan Reyes did experience some pain in his back and that hampered his run. If he felt better and finished up with Aaron Aguayo, that lowers our score and puts right back in the team race.'
The NCAA will announce the at-large berths at 5 p.m. CT Monday. The national meet will be contested Nov. 24 at the Byrnes Park/Irv Warren Memorial Golf Course in Waterloo, Iowa.

It was just after dinner and dusk was falling. As is my practice after dinner, toward the purpose of aiding digestion, I had com¬ posed myself In the Softest of the chairs in our living'room and took my pipe in hand.- 1 lighted the pipe... But first 1 should tell you sometliing about "Story With¬ out End." It is by Rabbi Solom¬ on Landman of Islah Temple, Kew Gardens, N. Y., imd by Benjamin Efron who formerly was Sabbath school superinten¬ dent In Rabbi Landman's temp¬ le. The book was published by Henry Holt & Co. II had turned out to be as in¬ formal as the title page said it vyas. Scholarly enough, but nol pedantic. The book told the story as If Messrs. Landman and Efron were telling It to me In my own living room Instead of in a book . They hadn't been overawed by any Idea,that they were writing a book for im¬ mortality.

The site recode variables are derived from the "Primary site" and "Histologic type ICD-O-3" variables after the registries submit the data to SEER (see Site Recode (https://seer.cancer.gov/siterecode/)). These variables are added to the SEER data as a convenience and are used in most SEER publications to define the cancer of interest.
For example, the sections of the SEER Cancer Statistics Review (https://seer.cancer.gov/csr/) correspond to a value of a site recode variable.
Create a table showing frequencies by primary site for cases with Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008 = lung and bronchus. Include only malignant cases diagnosed in the SEER 18 registries from 2000 through 2015 and exclude cases with unknown age and those not in the Research database.
Note: Starting with the November 2012 data submission, SEER uses the site recode variable named, "Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008". In prior releases, the "Site rec with Kaposi and mesothelioma" variable was used.
Key Points
- This exercise introduces three variables related to cancer type in the SEER databases (primary site, site recode, histology).
- In this exercise, you will calculate frequencies for cases diagnosed between 2000 and 2015, the only years for which all 18 registries have cases in the database.
- You will set primary site as a display variable in order to create a table showing frequencies for the variable's individual values.
- The Matrix menu provides a variety of options for modifying the layout of the output table. This exercise uses the Hide Zero Count Rows option to suppress the display of primary site codes not relevant to lung and bronchus cancer.
Step 1: Create a new Frequency Session
- Start SEER*Stat.
- From the File menu select New > Frequency Session or use the on the toolbar.
Step 2: Select a Database (Data Tab)
- On the Data Tab select "Incidence - SEER 18 Regs Research Data + Hurricane Katrina Impacted Louisiana Cases, Nov 2017 Sub (1973-2015 varying)".
Learn More...Databases distributed with SEER*Stat use names designed to describe the data. The various parts of this exercise's database name indicate the following:
- Incidence - The database contains cancer incidence data.
- SEER 18 Regs - The database contains data for the "SEER 18" registries as defined in SEER Registry Groupings for Analyses.
- Research Data, Nov 2017 Submission - This is the version of the database available researchers outside of the SEER program. The data was submitted to the SEER program by the registries in November 2017.
- + Hurricane Katrina Impacted Louisiana Cases - Hurricane Katrina had a major impact on Louisiana's population for the July - December 2005 time period. Louisiana cases diagnosed for that six-month time period have been excluded from the research database. These cases are provided with the data, but they are considered supplemental data. For more information, see Adjustments for Areas Impacted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
- (1973-2015 varying) - These are the years of diagnosis for the cases included in the database. They are considered "varying" because the years of diagnoses for cases vary per registry, depending on which year the registry joined the SEER Program and began contributing data.
Step 3: Choose the Statistics to Display (Statistic Tab)
- Move to the Statistic Tab.
- In the Statistic box, select Frequencies.
Step 4: Defining the Analysis Cohort (Selection Tab)
- Move to the Selection Tab.
- In this exercise, we want a frequency of malignant lung and bronchus cancer cases diagnosed from 2000 through 2015. We do not want to include all of the cancer sites included in the database, and we only want to include years for which all 18 registries have data. Therefore, we need a selection statement based on site, behavior, and year of diagnosis. The database selected on the Data Tab contains cases diagnosed in the SEER 18 registries; therefore selections based on registry are not necessary.
- The Select Only box provides a shortcut for commonly-used selections. It is very common to select only malignant behavior when analyzing cancer data. For this exercise we want to select malignant cases in the research database and exclude those with unknown age, so make sure that the Malignant Behavior, Known Age, and Cases in Research Database options are checked.
- Click Edit to open the Case Selection window.
- Using the controls at the top of the window, you will create a selection statement. The variables are listed in categories in the Variable box on the top left of the screen.
- In the Variable box, use the "+" to expand the "Site and Morphology" category.
- Select "Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008".
- Moving to the center of the window, check to see that "is = to" is selected as the Operator.
- Scroll through the items in the Values box until you find and select "Lung and Bronchus".
- In the Variable box, use the "+" to expand the "Race, Sex, Year Dx, Registry, County" category. Select "Year of diagnosis".
- Moving to the center of the window, check to see that "is = to" is selected as the Operator.
- Select "2000" from the Values box and select all the years from 2000 though 2015.
- At this time, the following should appear in the Selection Statement box at the bottom of the window:
{Site and Morphology.Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008} = ' Lung and Bronchus'.
AND {Race, Sex, Year Dx, Registry, County.Year of diagnosis} = '2000', '2001', '2002', '2003', '2004', '2005', '2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010', '2011', '2012, '2013', '2014', '2015'
- Use the OK button to close the Case Selection window.
Learn More...
- The Problem Statement specified to create a table showing the frequency of primary site for malignant cases with site recode = lung and bronchus. It is possible to select lung and bronchus cases by creating a selection statement that uses primary site and histology. However, it is much easier to use one of the site recode variables if you do not want to include hematopoietic diseases (such as lymphomas and leukemias) in the table.
- Each line of a selection statement defines selection criteria for one variable. When you have finished defining a line -- by choosing a variable, an operator, and one or more values -- highlighting a different variable in the Variables box will automatically begin a new line.
Step 5: View the Primary Site Variable Groupings
- Move to the Table Tab.
- Use the "+" to expand the "Site and Morphology" category in the Available Variables box.
- Select "Primary Site - labeled".
- Open the dictionary editor to view the groupings for "Primary site". In a previous exercise we learned that the dictionary editor could be opened by:
- using the on the toolbar,
- selecting Dictionary from the File menu, or
- double-clicking on the "Primary site" variable.
Learn More...
- Prior to the November 2007 data submission, there was only one primary site variable available which had unlabeled values. If you use the dictionary to view the "Primary Site" variable (not "labeled"), it only has one grouping which contains all possible values. The values are listed in a 3 digit format. The C and decimal point in the ICD-O-3 codes are implied, C34.0 is displayed as 340 in SEER*Stat. To use this variable as a display variable, it was necessary to create a user-defined variable with each value added as an individual grouping.
Step 6: Set the Row Variable
- Use the "+" to expand the "Site and Morphology" category in the Available Variables box at the bottom of the Table Tab.
- Select "Primary site - labeled".
- Click Row on the right hand side of the screen.
- At this time, "Primary site - labeled" should be listed as a row variable in the Display Variables box at the top of the window.
Step 7: Specify a Title (Output Tab)
- Move to the Output Tab.
- Enter the following title:
Primary Site Frequencies for Malignant Lung and Bronchus (Site recode ICD-O-3/WHO 2008)
SEER 18 Registries, 2000-2015
Frequency Exercise 2
Step 8: Create Matrix and Hide Extraneous Rows
- Use the or select Execute from the Session menu to execute the session.
- A dialog will display the progress of the job. When the job completes a SEER*Stat matrix window will open containing the results.
- The results matrix contains one line for each value of the primary site variable. The large number of rows makes it difficult to review the relevant frequencies. SEER*Stat has an option that allows you to suppress the display of the rows with a value of zero in each column.
- Select Options from the Matrix menu.
- In the Options box check Hide Zero Count Rows.
- Click OK.
- The size of the table will be reduced to six rows: one row for each of the primary site ICD-O-3 codes for lung and bronchus.
- Compare your results to this SEER*Stat matrix file: Exercise Matrix 2 Results.
Learn More...
- The Options window gives you the opportunity to correct typographical errors in the title. Corrections that you make to the title in the matrix options will appear in the matrix and printed output. However, sessions extracted from the matrix will retain the original, unedited title.
- Use the Help button on the Options window to learn about the other matrix options.

On Sunday, hundreds of people gathered at Lebanon National Cemetery to honor the military veterans who have served our country in times of war and times of peace. As usual, the crowd was filled with many of those veterans and their families.
I couldn't help but wonder what those veterans' families know about their service.
My grandfather on my father's side, Sylvester Lega, was a World War II veteran. He died a few months before I was born, but I know from conversations with my grandmother that he said very little about his time in the service.

Manchester man accused of stabbing another man and stealing cell phone
October 22. 2013 10:09PM
MANCHESTER — Keith Frye, 20, of 452 Pine St., could enter no plea Tuesday in Circuit Court-Mnchester District Division to three felony charges of first-degree assault and one robbery charge that allege he stabbed Thomas Trombly in the neck three times and stole his cell phone.
Frye told Judge John Emery: "We were both under the influence."
Frye is accused of stabbing Trombly in the neck on the Piscataquog River Trail Oct. 9. Police prosecutor Carrissa Pelletier requested $50,000 cash/surety bail for Frye, saying he left Trombly on the trail "to bleed out." She said doctors said one of the stab wounds came close to Trombly's spine.
Pelletier said Frye also has a pending robbery charge in Rhode Island. The judge set bail at the requested amount and a probable cause hearing was set for Nov. 4.
Response to divorce papers
A man accused of smashing the windows of his wife's vehicle was arraigned Tuesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division on a felony charge of criminal mischief.
A police prosecutor said after his wife served him with divorce papers, John Holly. 40, took a baseball bat to the vehicle windows. He's also accused of slapping his wife in the face several times.
He was stopped when he attempted to drive away from the 45 Falls Road residence and charged with operating after suspension for Driving While Intoxicated.
No plea can be entered to a felony in Circuit Court, so a probable cause hearing was set for Nov. 4. Trial on the misdemeanors was set for Nov. 14. Bail was set at $1,000 cash/surety, with conditions barring contact with his wife and barring him from her residence.
Accused of stalking
A man out on $1,000 personal recognizance bail, scheduled for trial Nov. 21 on three simple assault charges, was arraigned Tuesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division on misdemeanor charges of stalking and violation of a domestic violence protective order.
Because Keith Wszolek, 46, of 1639 Brown Ave., allegedly called the woman and parked within 100 yards of her residence Oct. 6, police prosecutors filed a motion to revoke his bail and have him held until his Nov. 21 trial.
A bail revocation hearing was set for Wednesday morning in Circuit Court.
Wants to return home
Katherine Finnell, 54, of 79 B St., pleaded innocent Tuesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to charges of simple assault, criminal threatening and criminal mischief that allege she punched and scratched her boyfriend, told him she was going to stab him and damaged a bedroom door.
Trial was set for Dec. 16 and Judge John Emery continued bail at $1,000 personal recognizance, with conditions that include no contact with the alleged victim and not going to the B Street address.
Finnell objected to the condition barring her from the B Street address, saying: "I need to go home." Finnell said the alleged victim has another residence, but she has nowhere else to go.
The judge suggested Finnell remain in the courtroom while the domestic violence advocate called the alleged victim, to determine where he lives. But Finnell had left by the time the advocate reported to Emery that the victim said he lives at the B Street address.
Theft is a felony
Police prosecutor Carrissa Pelletier Tuesday asked Circuit Court-Manchester District Division Judge John Emery to set bail at $2,000 cash/surety for Aaron Drolet, saying the Derry man has a "recurrent pattern" of theft.
Drolet, 35, of 49 Frost Road, was in Circuit Court for arraignment on a felony theft charge for allegedly taking $17.55 worth of food from Market Basket on Elm Street without paying.
A third theft charge is brought as a felony and Pelletier said Drolet has been convicted of three theft-related charges. She said he is also under the umbrella of an October 2010 suspended sentence of three-and-a-half to seven years on a drug conviction.
Judge John Emery set bail at the requested amount, with conditions that include not going to the Market Basket store. Because no plea can be entered to a felony in Circuit Court, a probable cause hearing was set for Nov. 4.

My LO is 8 weeks today. He is exclusively on breast milk, mostly by breast. He gets 1 pumped bottle most days, and on the 2 days I work he gets bottles all day.
He is a snacker. He eats little bits all day long--every hour, sometimes sooner, sometimes up to 2 hours. Even at night he will only go 3 hours, rarely 4, more often 1 1/2 or 2.It's making me crazy and hurting my breasts. At this age, he should be having 3-5 ounces every 3-4 hours, not 1 ounce every hour!I can't seem to make him take more at one time...nor can I stretch it out between feedings without screaming hysteria for an hour or more while he waits. He is gaining like crazy, nearly 1lb per week.
He does the same whether it's breast days, or mom-at-work bottle days. And he hates/refuses the pacifier.
He does have reflux, but that is under control. He's no longer eating so often to control reflux pain. (Zantac, chiropractor, gave up dairy, etc.) He naps and sleeps really badly because he's constantly waking up to eat...an ounce...then tired again...
Anyone know of any sort of book or professional who can get this kid on a better eating/sleeping schedule? My pediatrician and my lactation consultant don't believe in schedules. They both tell me "He should be eating more, less often," but they also tell me, "If he's really crying for food you have to give it to him even if it's only been an hour." Well, that's the problem! There is no way to reconcile those two suggestions!..
Getting desperate. I've had no sleep in 2 months now, and no down time during the day as he rarely naps more than a half-hour as he always wants to snack again. WHAT do I do?

I am new to blogs and pinterest. I enjoy your blog so much and have seen the pinterest pin button on some blogs, I just wondered if that is something you would consider doing. There are so many beautiful ideas on your blog that I wish I could remember them all and thought if they could be pinned I could keep track of them there.

In an effort to promote safety during the summer tourist season, the Michigan State Police (MSP) Sault Ste. Marie Post will dedicate patrols to traffic enforcement over the course of the summer, concentrating on M-123 in both Chippewa and Luce counties.
Troopers will focus on aggressive driving on M-123 in Chippewa and Luce counties to reduce the number of crashes in both counties and to promote safe driving. Both are tourist destinations and the amount of traffic significantly increases during peak times of the summer between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Areas of concern that troopers will be focusing on are aggressive driving which includes tailgating, speeding, following too closely, improper passing, and operating under the influence of alcohol.
"By increasing patrols and focusing on traffic safety, we hope to reduce the number of traffic crashes and fatalities during this summer period," said F/Lt. David Hopper, Sault Ste. Marie Post commander.

Apparently, Matt Dillion has decided to roll his own filesystem for DragonFly. "Here is my initial outline of the filesystem design. It is open for discussion. Please feel to ask questions for anything you do not understand. I do not intend to start coding anything for at least two weeks. There are currently two rough spots in the design. First, how to handle segment overflows in a multi-master environment. Such overflows can occur when the individual masters or slaves have different historical data retention policies. Second, where to store the regeneratable indexes."

What's New
Minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
App Description
Winner of Best App Ever 2012 Award in the Best Infant Educational App Category!
Teach your toddler about animals and their sounds with unique interactive animated flashcards. Initiate early different languages learning with our multilanguage sound tracks!
•Realistic interactive animation of 30 animals
•7 different languages sound tracks with animals' names
•Clear natural sound and high quality original art
•Animals' names pronounced with professionally recorded story teller's voice.
•Record animals' names with your own voice.
These and other features are offered by our unique application «Animals for Tots». «Animals for Tots» was developed by loving parents in close cooperation with professional artists, designers and educators.
The application «Animals for Tots» is designed to teach pre-school children the wild and domestic animals, their names, the sounds they make.
Toddlers will love touching the animals and hearing them mooing and hoofing. Older children will learn to read and correctly pronounce animal's names.
Professional native speakers from UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, China and Russia say animals' names. It initiates early foreign language learning. Children are mimicking what they hear, and are surprisingly good at it! They are attuned to slight differences in tone and sound. Their sensitive ears help them pick up on and duplicate the tricky sounds adults and even adolescents often stumble over. So, Animals for Tots is an entertaining and educational application at the same time.
Whether you are at home, on the road or in a waiting room this app will help you to keep your child happy and entertained.
Animals for Tots include
- Forest animals (wolf, bear, hedgehog, owl, cuckoo, woodpecker, frog, squirrel, moose, beaver)
- Farm animals (cow, horse, pig, cat, dog, donkey, sheep, goat, hen and rooster)
- Safari Animals (elephant, gorilla, lion, zebra, hyena, crocodile, python, parrot, hippo, giraffe)
More content packs will be added in the near future.
No advertisements of any kind are shown to children while playing with the app.
• Universal application that can be installed on iPhone, iPod and iPad.
• Original polished graphics and smooth animations.
• Animal names pronounced by professionally recorded voices in 7 different languages.
• Animals respond to touch with realistic animations.
• Ability to record animal names in your own voice.
• Ability to write animal names in your own language.
• Pleasant high quality music.
• User interface designed to prevent children from messing with App settings.
• To record your voice for older versions of the iPod without a microphone, you need to connect an external microphone or headset with microphone.
• To hear the sounds animals make sure your device is not set to silent mode or vibrate mode.
• It is recommended to turn off multi-touch to the iPad with iOS 4.3 and later.

Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R Review
Gigabyte has upped up their old offerings for Intel LGA 1366 processors, such as the X58A-UD3P reviewed here by enhancing the old features and adding new features such as USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0. Compared to the Gigabyte EX58-UD4P that I reviewed several months ago, this board looks to be a good move by Gigabyte - a move in the right direction. Quality features at a more affordable price point, cutting edge technologies, and finally a unified color scheme. The board has four full length PCI Express slots and supports Tri-SLI and CrossFireX out of the box, it also supports Intel's latest six-core processors coming out now.
The new board enlists a mix of new technologies and proprietary standards that have been in service for years, and even a floppy drive port for the few people who use them still to update BIOS. With all of the features and cooling onboard, this should be a popular board for gamers, multimedia enthusiasts, workstations, and overclockers alike!
Closer Look:
The packaging is the same as it has been for a while, except that this box has 3 stamped all over the front! 333 Onboard Acceleration is Gigabyte's way of saying that the motherboard has USB 3.0, SATA 3.0, and 3x the USB power. The motherboard has twice the thickness of copper PCB than typical boards, helping reduce resistance. There is a Ultra Durable 3 logo on the bottom that in small print says the board has Japanese solid capacitors and Ferrite core Chokes. Signal quality should be pretty clean here. The back side explains with graphs how much faster USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0 are, especially with RAID 0. Power efficiency is another strong point with the Gigabyte boards combining features from the Ultra Durable 3 moniker with Smart 6 and Dynamic Energy Saver 2.
The sides of the box are clean, but not empty - the model is slapped in bold on each side, as are the Intel logos. The bottom continues the trend but also lists four features/benefits about the board, including Energy saving design with DES 2 technology, support for Intel Core i7 processors, four PCI-E 2.0 x16 graphics interface, and integrated SATA 6Gb/s. These four tidbits are then translated into Deutsch, Spanish, Standardized Chinese, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, French, Arabic, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Turkish, Polish, Persian, and Thai.
Opening the box reveals the driver CD, accessories, and manuals piled above the motherboard. removing these and the cardboard platform reveal the motherboard protected in a standard antistatic bag. The unified color scheme looks far better than the random rainbow colors of the old boards, a million fold better looking in my opinion.
Three manuals are included with the motherboard, one to aid in installation of the board, one for Smart 6 information and setup, and one user manual for the board in general. A driver disk is included to help load drivers for the motherboard. A small Gigabyte sticker is also included. Four bright yellow SATA cables are included with latching mechanisms, two have a 90 degree end as well. A wide flexible SLI connector and a solid PCB Tri-SLI bracket are included for the NVIDIA SLI setup users, and the I/O panel bracket has a sticker that color codes everything. An IDE cable stamped with the Gigabyte name is also included.
Time to dissect the accessories!

1652 Jansson Map of Europe in AntiquityEuropeAncient-jansson-1652
1652 Jansson Map of Europe in AntiquityEuropeAncient-jansson-1652
1652 (undated) 15.5 x 19.5 in (39.37 x 49.53 cm)
Jan Jansson or Johannes Janssonius (1588 - 1664) was born in Arnhem, Holland. He was the son of a printer and bookseller and in 1612 married into the cartographically prominent Hondius family. Following his marriage he moved to Amsterdam where he worked as a book publisher. It was not until 1616 that Jansson produced his first maps, most of which were heavily influenced by Blaeu. In the mid 1630s Jansson partnered with his brother-in-law, Henricus Hondius, to produce his important work, the eleven volume Atlas Major. About this time, Jansson's name also begins to appear on Hondius reissues of notable Mercator/Hondius atlases. Jansson's last major work was his issue of the 1646 full edition of Jansson's English Country Maps. Following Jansson's death in 1664 the company was taken over by Jansson's brother-in-law Waesberg.

Would of guessed the arm would of only need to of been 1/2" longer than the OEM plastic clamp.
It was in fact intended to float a bit. I apologize if those instructions in the installation guide were not clear enough on that, but we definitely appreciate the feedback if that was confusing at all.
This is how I set it up originally, but that arm can also go forward, there is no issue in that. I suppose if you were to have a larger wheel on your Rover, having that arm forward would probably be the better setup.
Hope this helps!

Aunt Sue is still in Raleigh Community Hospital and is expected to remain hospitalized for the next several days. Mama talked to her nurse by phone today and was told this is all a reaction to the last round of chemo. Aunt Sue is extremely dehydrated and mentally out of it however her cognitive awareness seems to come and go and appears to be bettering a little bit. The nurse said the situation is bad but she does not feel the family needs to be making arrangements to come at this point. I'll pass on more as it becomes available.

Pet Memorial
Daisy Melius Never to be Forgotten Daisy Melius 2004 - 2016 Daisy spent the first four years of her life in a Tennessee puppymill where she was callously known as a number. "8" was tattooed in her left ear. Located through petfinder.com in 2008, we rescued 4 year old Daisy in honor of our two Maltese, Chip and Mika, who had died in August and September. Daisy arrived at MSY on Halloween night. She was frightened, thin and had a mouth full of rotten teeth. Socialization took awhile, but she had help from her trainer (Elizabeth Schonberg), canine brothers (Wilson and Zeus), pet parents (Jennifer and Brian), and the employees of Heaven's Pets at Lake Lawn Metairie where she was a greeter until June 2013. Lovingly known as "Di Di Baby," Daisy blossomed. She was sweet, loved having her belly rubbed and showed her love by sneaking kisses onto the back of your leg or an extended hand. Daisy was her mom's shadow and followed her everywhere. Her rescued golden retriever brother, Zeus was her second choice for companionship. Much to the dismay of Zeus, she wanted to snuggle as close as possible to him. Thank you Zeus for being such a tolerant big brother! Daisy went to Heaven on December 18, 2016 while in the arms of her mother. The last eight years of her life were filled with the love and tender loving care that all pets deserve throughout their lifetime. Never to be forgotten, Daisy's life will be honored through rescuing another in her honor!

UPDATE: Could be 'months' before deciding on charges in crash involving Dover city councilorBy TIM BUCKLAND
New Hampshire Union Leader
December 03. 2013 11:59PM
DOVER - It could take months to determine whether City Councilor Michael Weeden may be charged in a head-on collision which led to the death of a Somersworth man Monday.
Martin J. Carignan, 87, of 22 Tates Brook Road, Somersworth, succumbed to his injuries from the accident and was pronounced dead Tuesday at 3:10 p.m. in Massachusetts General Hospital.
Carignan was driving a 2008 silver Chevrolet Aveo which collided head-on with a 2012 Chrysler 300 operated by Weeden. The accident occurred Monday morning near Weeden's home
along Sixth Street.
Police said Weeden was attempting to buckle his seat belt when his vehicle veered into the oncoming lane.
Like other fatal accidents, Police Capt. Bill Breault said it could take several weeks to determine what factors contributed to the crash."
Part of that process will be to rule out possible causes such as speed, driver impairment, driver distraction, weather conditions, road conditions and lighting, to name a few," Breault said in an email.
Once the investigation is complete, Breault said the matter will be turned over to the Strafford County Attorney's Office, which "will determine what if any charges will be filed."
Strafford County Attorney Thomas Velardi said it is much too early to make a determination, especially as police dropped off
initial information Wednesday afternoon. He added every case is different and not all accidents result in charges or convictions.
Velardi said this case will receive the same amount of attention and diligence as any other matter.
"It's another collision and we have to determine whether there are any criminal aspects of the case," Velardi said, adding he anticipates the process to take some time as they must wait for the results of an autopsy to determine whether any medical issues were a factor.
Weeden sustained minor injuries while Carignan was sent to
Wentworth Douglass Hospital before being transferred to Boston for serious head injuries.
The northbound lane of Sixth Street was closed for about an hour while police, firefighters and emergency personnel assisted the two drivers. Both vehicles, which were seriously damaged, had to be towed from the scene, according to Breault.
While Weeden could not be contacted Wednesday, he previously told Foster's Daily Democrat that he was "heartbroken" and that he had reached out to Carignan's family.
Previous story follows:
DOVER — An 87-year-old Somersworth man died Tuesday from injuries he suffered in a head-on collision Monday with a car driven by City Councilor Michael Weeden, according to police Capt. Bill Breault.
Breault said Weeden told police that he pulled out of his driveway at 365 Sixth St. on Monday morning and was putting on his seat belt when he crossed into the opposite lane and into the path of Martin J. Carignan, who was driving on Sixth Street.
"He did leave his lane and went completely into the other lane," Breault said of Weeden, who was treated at the scene of the crash for minor injuries.
Carignan was taken to Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, then transferred to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, where he was pronounced dead shortly after 3 p.m. Tuesday.
Weeden told Fosters Daily Democrat Monday that his "thoughts and prayers" were with Carignan and his family.
Breault said police continue to investigate the crash and, following an investigation, will consult with the Strafford County Attorney's Office to determine whether charges will be filed.

A risk factor is a condition or behavior that can increase the chances for getting a disease or serious medical disorder. Risk factors which increase a person's chances of getting colorectal cancer include:
There has been conflicting data regarding dietary factors that decrease the rate of colorectal cancer, but studies suggest that a diet that is low in animal fat and high in fiber may decrease the risk.
The patient's first degree family members (parents, brothers, sisters, and children) should be made aware of the patient's colorectal cancer diagnosis and those individuals should tell their physician in order to ensure appropriate colorectal cancer screening in hopes of preventing colorectal cancer in that person

VANCOUVER, BC - BC Pavilion Corporation (PavCo) is pleased to announce the revitalization of BC Place is scheduled to be complete by Friday, September 30, 2011.
The 36 masts and compression beams that make up the steel superstructure of the new retractable roof at BC Place are now in place. The cable-net system to support the new fabric roof is now being installed, and the entire revitalization project is on schedule for completion by September 30.
In true sports tradition, the decision about which team will have the opportunity to play first in BC Place was recently decided by a coin toss in a downtown Vancouver office. However, the dates and details of the first BC Lions and Vancouver Whitecaps FC games at BC Place will be confirmed by the Canadian Football League (CFL) and Major League Soccer (MLS) when they issue their respective 2011 schedules in the near future.
"There's still a lot of work to do of course, but we have an exceptional team of skilled tradespeople, designers, engineers, and construction professionals involved in this project," said David Podmore, chair of the BC Pavilion Corporation (PavCo).
"Our September 30 scheduled completion is also dependent on weather or other factors beyond our control. While we will do our level best to be ready on that date, we will, of course, always put the safety of our talented and dedicated workers ahead of any other consideration. Nonetheless, construction at BC Place is progressing so well, that we are now at a point where we can confidently set the re-opening date," Podmore added. "By committing to completion by September 30th, the BC Lions, Vancouver Whitecaps FC, and their respective leagues are now able to finalize their plans for 2011."
About BC Place
BC Place is the largest sports, exhibition, and entertainment venue of its kind in British Columbia, hosting the province's most notable events including the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.
BC Place is undergoing a major revitalization that includes the installation of the largest cable-supported retractable roof of its kind in the world. Upon re-opening, BC Place will become the new home for the Vancouver Whitecaps FC MLS franchise, will continue to be home to the BC Lions Football Club and the BC Sports Hall of Fame, and will host the CFL Grey Cup in 2011, the 2011 Vanier Cup, plus many other exhibitions, and community and entertainment events.

Gallery: What (Not) To Wear To Fashion Shows
There seem to be a lot of articles telling you "what you should wear to fashion shows!" By fashion shows, I assume they mean New York Fashion Week, which begins today. First of all, I'm glad we're all going to fashion shows because we all live in the same town, and there are no other towns in the world, and we all participate in the same activities in that town (Fashion Week has come to the Village in The Prisoner, yay!) However, if you are going to the shows, you probably already know what you're wearing. You're wearing the outfit that looks good on you that you feel comfortable in. Oh, you don't have one of those? Wear some skinny jeans, high heels and a blazer.
Unless you want to be awesome. In which case, you should wear one of the following:[ITPGallery]

NEW YORK (AP) — Hard-hitting Tampa Bay safety Dashon Goldson has been suspended for one game for flagrant and repeat violations of NFL safety rules prohibiting hits to the head and neck area of defenseless players.
Goldson was penalized for unnecessary roughness in the second quarter of Sunday's game against New Orleans for making direct, helmet-to-helmet contact with a defenseless receiver, Darren Sproles.
The suspension was imposed Monday by NFL vice president of football operations Merton Hanks. Goldson can't practice this week nor play in the Buccaneers' game on Sunday against New England.
He can return to football activities with the team next Monday.
The violation was Goldson's fifth for unnecessary roughness since 2011 and his second in the first two weeks of the 2013 season.
Goldson was fined $30,000 last week for striking a defenseless player, Jeff Cumberland, in the head and neck area against the New York Jets.
"You had an unobstructed path to your opponent," Hanks wrote in a letter to Goldson informing him of the suspension for the hit on Sproles.
"It is clear that you lowered your head and unnecessarily rammed the left side of your helmet into the left side of your opponent's head.
"You delivered a forceful blow with your helmet and made no attempt whatsoever to wrap up your opponent or make a conventional tackle on the play. This illegal contact clearly could have been avoided."
Goldson was not available for comment at the Bucs' training facility.
Under the collective bargaining agreement, Goldson has three days to appeal and request an expedited hearing and decision.
Appeals are heard and decided by either Matt Birk or Ted Cottrell, the officers jointly appointed by the NFL and NFL Players Association to oversee appeals of on-field player discipline.
Goldson was an All-Pro last season with San Francisco, helping the 49ers reach the Super Bowl. He joined Tampa Bay as a free agent, signing a five-year, $41.25 million contract.
The suspension will cost him $264,705 in salary.
The Bucs have committed a league-high 23 penalties for 220 yards in two games. They've been flagged for six personal fouls — five for helmet-to-helmet contact and the other for a late hit on Jets quarterback Geno Smith.
Before Goldson's suspension was announced, Coach Greg Schiano reiterated he wants his players to remain aggressive, but also play within the rules.
"It really doesn't matter whether you think it's a penalty. It's called, so it's a penalty," Schiano said in response to a question about whether he agreed with all of the calls.
"That's really the issue. If something's going to be called, we have to avoid it because it's hurting the football team," Schiano added.
"On the same token, I want our guys to play hard. I don't think anybody's intentionally trying to do that, so we just have to be more and more aware of that situation and make sure we avoid that as much as we can."
Schiano said during his weekly news conference that he had not heard anything about a possible suspension.
He said he was aware of Goldson's reputation as a tough hitter when the seventh-year pro signed with Tampa Bay, but that he did not have any concerns about his history of being penalized for unnecessary roughness.
"When we made the decision to bring Dashon here that was not a concern," Schiano said. "Was I aware that he was a big hitter, yes. And, it's not a concern now. It's a concern that he may get suspended, but Dashon ... when you look at the Jet hit, he's trying to do the right thing. He's got to lower his target point."
Schiano noted "sometimes the target point moves" while a defender is trying to make a tackle.
"That means you even have to go lower still," the coach said. "He certainly is trying. It's not one of those, 'Oh, I don't care.' He's very aware and trying."
