Hugo Chavez says new tumor was cancerousVenezuelan President Hugo Chavez revealed Sunday that a new tumor recently removed from his pelvic region was of the same type of cancer as a baseball-sized growth extracted from that part of his body about eight months ago.jimmy choo boots on sale us ImagesVenezuelan President Hugo Chavez speaks during a TV program in Havana recorded on Saturday.HO/AFP/Getty ImagesVenezuelan President Hugo Chavez speaks during a TV program in Havana recorded on Saturday.In his first TV appearance in nine days, Chavez said the surgery and follow-up tests showed the tumor was “a recurrence of the initially diagnosed cancer.”He said “the tumor was totally extracted” and noted “the absence of lesions suggestive of cancer neither locally, neither in nearby organs, neither far away … neither metastasis, none of this thanks to God, to the diagnosis and rapid intervention.”The 57-year-old president said he would spend several weeks recovering and then “we are going to do radiation treatment in the area … without discarding other treatment options.”"There isn’t fever nor any other sign, neither infection, hemorrhage,” he said. He called the post-surgery healing “perfect in relation to the time that’s passed, and we are already doing physical therapy.”Chavez spoke firmly in footage recorded Saturday in Havana while accompanied by various government ministers and older brother Adan Chavez. The president said his recuperation has been “open, progressive and rapid” in the footage aired Sunday in Venezuela.Chavez said “still it hasn’t been six days because the operation ended on the night of last Sunday.” He verified the date of the recording by displaying a Saturday copy of the Cuban government newspaper Granma and a similar copy of the Venezuelan government paper Correo del Orinoco.”We are very optimistic,” he said while seated at an oval conference table. “There is a very favorable medical evolution, the vital signs very favorable.”Chavez underwent several weeks of radiation treatment in 2011.Chavez flew to Cuba for his most recent surgery on Feb. 24, and his absence from the public spotlight since then has sparked speculation about his health. Chavez did phone into a show Friday on Venezuelan state television when he said he was recovering well.Chavez hasn’t specified what kind of cancer he has or exactly where it’s located. But cancer specialists say that based on available information, Chavez appears to suffer from a relatively rare cancer known as sarcoma, which tends to reappear in the same location where related tumors are removed.The president has taken pains to demonstrate unflagging energy in his public appearances as he faces a tough re-election battle this November.”Everyone who has been operated on knows … the impact of an operation of various hours,” Chavez said in the most recent footage. “And how, above all the first day when the body begins to awaken, the pains begin, the obstacles, after one goes step by step recovering the functions of the body, like I’m recovering.”He added, “Since almost the second day, I began to walk. For this, I say thanks to God, to everybody.”He spoke in a stark, white-walled room, in front of paintings of Cuban independence leader Jose Marti and hero Simon Bolivar. With no one taking over his duties in Venezuela, Chavez issued instructions to government ministers and approved the budgets of various state-owned companies.As he has done in recent weeks, Chavez defended Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, who has tried to violently crush a popular revolt in much of the country. Venezuela has at least twice sent shipments of diesel oil to Syria over the past months.”We continue lamenting the aggressions against Syria,” Chavez said, “and the pressure of the government and many European countries, failing to recognize the sovereignty of a people such as the Syrian people.”"From here,” Chavez said, “we send our solidarity to the Syrian people and to President Bashar Al-Assad.”Chavez supporter Johsny Flores said Sunday that his faith in the leader remains high despite the reports of ill health.”Cancer is a serious illness, but I know that Chavez has so much love for the country, so much desire to continue with us, that he has going to come out of this,” said Flores, a 35-year-old street vendor.On the other side of the political fence, merchant Tomas Gutierrez followed the example of sole opposition presidential candidate Henrique Capriles and wished Chavez a swift recovery even as he longed for an end to the leader’s 13-year rule.”Another person in his place would be on the floor,” the 63-year-old said. “We have to recognize his willpower.christian louboutin shoes But also, we hope that he gets better and that Capriles wins and puts an end to this disastrous government.”

By Todd Warshaw, Getty Images for NASCARJeff Gordon is looking up singapore lacoste sale in the standings already after a 40th-place Daytona 500 finish.By Todd Warshaw, Getty Images for NASCARJeff Gordon is looking up in the standings already after a 40th-place Daytona 500 finish.But the five-time champion, docked 25 points Wednesday by NASCAR after his No. 48 Chevrolet failed a pre-Daytona 500 inspection, isn’t the only star in an inauspicious position entering Sunday’s Subway Fresh Fit 500 at .Several other top drivers, including two of his teammates, will be scrambling to catch up in the season’s second race.MORE: PHOTOS: Johnson, who crashed on the second lap of Monday’s rain-delayed and finished 42nd, won’t have crew chief with him for the next six races, either, stemming from illegal modifications before Speedweeks began.He goes to Phoenix with minus-23 points — 70 behind leader Matt Kenseth’s 47.That was the latest frustration of a rough two weeks for , whose team was thought to have lost nearly $2 million in damaged equipment after a disastrous string of crashes and failures between the exhibition race Feb. 18 (in which all four Hendrick cars had issues) and Daytona 500.Hendrick driver ‘s engine failure at Datyona left him in 40th place and 42 points behind Kenseth. finished 29th in Hendrick’s No. 5 car after a late crash. Among Hendrick Chevrolets, only second-place Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s made it to the checkered flag.This will be the second Cup race on PIR’s reconfigured mile oval, which has a steeper banking and less pronounced dogleg on the backstretch to encourage more side-by-side racing. Gordon won at PIR last spring before the repave but finished 32nd in November.”Obviously, I like the old configuration better right now,” Gordon said. “But we have to adapt to it.”Kahne, who won the first race on the new circuit in his final days with , is more fond of the new PIR.”I think the track was probably the best I can remember a brand-new race surface being in the first race,” Kahne said. “It started slippery and got better as the rubber built up.”Phoenix will be a critical recovery race for other stars, too. Seven of the 12 drivers who qualified for the Chase for the Cup in 2011 suffered crashes or mechanical issues Monday.Of those seven, the best finish belonged to defending champion , who was involved in a pileup late in the race but continued on to finish 16th.Other 2011 Chasers who encountered trouble Monday were Kyle Busch (17th), Ryan Newman (21th), Brad Keselowski (32nd) and Kurt Busch (39th).”Unlike Daytona, two guys can’t get in a line at Phoenix and go to the front,” said Stewart, third at PIR in November. “You can’t help each other at Phoenix. You just have to go race.”Only Kenseth, Earnhardt and , who finished fourth, escaped the worst of it. Other 2011 Chasers among the top 10 at Daytona included Kevin Harvick (seventh) and Carl Edwards (eighth).”You bring such a nice car down here,” Earnhardt said after the race. “Your chances of tearing it up are always so high.”NASCAR’s simplified points system, with a maximum of 48 points available to a winner who gets all available bonus points, doesn’t allow for easy comebacks from large deficits. It’s possible that Johnson, Sprint Cup’s five-time champion, will be working for months to get back into contention for the Chase.”It’s a tough hole to climb out of,” Earnhardt said. lacoste bags in hongkong “This new system isn’t easy.”

If only all were well that started well.By Michael Desmond, NBCJason Isaacs is a cop with two lives, which switch every time he wakes up.By Michael Desmond, NBCJason Isaacs is a cop with two lives, which switch every time he wakes up.Were that true, Awake (NBC, tonight, 10 ET/PT, ?? out of four) would easily establish itself tonight as one of the season’s best new shows. The premiere concisely introduces a wonderfully intriguing premise — a man who can’t be sure which of his parallel lives might be real — and fleshes it out with a strong acting ensemble and an interesting set of characters.And then come the next three episodes. And instead of digging deeper into the premise, more complications are piled on top of it, to the point where you don’t just have trouble remembering what the show is supposed to be about, you have trouble remembering why you liked it in the first place.STORY: In a way, abercrombie and fitch sale Awake is something of a mulligan for creator Kyle Killen, who tried a variation on this double-life theme in the critically praised but viewer-rejected drama . Here, instead of a con man with two wives, you get as a cop with two lives, which switch every time he wakes up.Having regained consciousness after an auto accident, L.A. police detective Michael Britten (Isaacs) discovers he’s in two timelines. In one, his wife (Laura Allen) survived; in the other, it’s his son, (Dylan Minnette).To further muddy his waters, he now has two partners ( and Wilmer Valderrama) helping him solve two different cases, which sometimes intersect and sometimes don’t. He has only one boss (Laura Innes), but she has sent him to two psychiatrists (BD Wong and the always-welcome Cherry Jones), both of whom are certain the other is a dream.Emotionally, it’s a difficult premise to carry off; after all, there would seem to be a sad ending for Michael whichever way he turns. But with considerable help from Isaacs’ empathy-inducing performance, tonight’s episode does an excellent job of pulling you into his dilemma and making you understand his urge to hang on to both worlds as long as he can.Yet the further the show moves, the more that understanding frays. In coming weeks, links between the cases become more baffling, and Michael’s emotional journey gets buried beneath a growing conspiracy (the last thing this show needs) and the introduction of a new character who may be onto his secret.As characters drop in and out, it also becomes harder to keep track of what world we’re in at any one moment. Yes, the show uses different color schemes to separate them, but they’re so similarly bleached out, they’re not much help.No one wants to return to the color-by-numbers plotting of Diagnosis: Murder, but there is such a thing as demanding too much effort from an audience without sufficient reward. Glum, grim and increasingly confused, Awake qualifies. And while this isn’t really the show’s fault, abercrombie and fitch sweatpants for sale it has the whiff of a program bound to exit before it answers the questions it raises. That may not sound fair — but waking or dreaming, life in TV seldom is.

Avoid window seats to cut risk for in-flight blood clots

Potentially dangerous blood clots in the legs known as deep venous thromboses (DVTs) got the nickname “economy class syndrome” from widely publicized incidents involving passengers on long-haul flights.However, new guidelines from a leading physicians’ group suggest the class you sit in on a plane may not raise your DVT risk, but your proximity to the aisle might.Sitting in a window seat is a risk factor for DVT, the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) warn in their new advisory, regardless of whether it’s in economy or first class.
“DVT risk has nothing to do with economy class,” said Dr. Gordon H. Guyatt, chair of the ACCP panel that drafted the new guidelines. “Really, the evidence is that actually where you sit isn’t really an issue. It’s how much you move around. And if you’re in a window seat you are probably more willing to sit for long periods of time being uncomfortable because you are reluctant to make anybody else move to let you out.”The new recommendations are published in the February issue of CHEST.
DVTs are blood clots that typically occur in the legs. They can become especially dangerous if they travel through the bloodstream to the lungs, where they can form potentially lethal pulmonary embolisms.The current guidelines, which are endorsed by a wide range of American medical associations, are the ninth in a series of ACCP updates on the issue. They were drafted after the panel extensively reviewed findings from relevant studies published since the last update in 2008.
Long-haul immobility does boost DVT risk, the experts noted. But as the ACCP panel sifted through the evidence, they found no basis for the notion of “economy class syndrome.” Rather, folks in a window seat might be more hesitant to get up and move around — and that might raise their odds for a DVT.
Still, “the first thing to say is that if you are a healthy person you should not really worry about DVT because your risk — even on a long-term flight — is considerably less than one in a thousand,” said Guyatt, who is also professor in the department of clinical epidemiology and biostatistics at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. “So these guidelines are for those who have more than a normal risk. For those who have had a clot before, or an abnormality of their coagulation system, or disability that affects mobility. Or if you are obese or have active cancer.”
In addition to those risk factors, the ACCP says that air passengers who are elderly, pregnant, take supplementary estrogen (including oral contraceptives) or recently underwent surgery and/or trauma also face a higher-than-normal risk for DVT.
Apart from seating considerations, the guidelines also suggest that people on flights lasting six or more hours move about frequently and stretch their calf muscles.
Higher-risk individuals should also wear graduated compression stockings that stretch below the knee. Guyatt said it “would be crazy” for passengers at normal risk to wear such stockings, and the ACCP guidelines specifically argue against their use by healthy passengers.
The guidelines also generally discourage the taking of aspirin and/or anticoagulant medications for the specific intent of lowering DVT risk. That said, those at very high risk are encouraged to consult their doctors in order to weigh the pros and cons of such drugs.
For his part, Dr. Christopher Cannon, a cardiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, said the new DVT guidelines “make obvious good sense.”
“Getting up once every hour or two during a long flight and walking up and down the aisle is what you want to do,” he noted. “It’s not about class and the slight extra room you’ll get in business. It’s about sitting by the window and looking over at the guy sleeping next to you and thinking you’ll wait rather than get up. That’s the issue.”
“I would also add that all of this would also apply to people taking long car trips,” Cannon said. “I’ve had tons of people driving home on long car rides who have had problems with DVT. Hence the emphasis on mobility. It’s all about making sure you get up or get out and move.”
