Mario Majic, head of Strategic Business Development, Marketing & Corporate Governance at Avista Oil AG, says that with today's re-refining technology, base oils produced from spent lubricants can compete head on with “virgin” base oils. Speaking with F&L Asia  in Episode 31 of the F+L Webcast, Majic said re-refined base oils from Avista can achieve up to 90% CO2 emissions savings from cradle to gate compared to primary refined base oils. Historically, buyers expect a discount when they purchase re-refined base oils. However, that's starting to change, says Majic. “A couple of years ago, we were not able to achieve premium prices for our products, but the market is changing. If demand for something is rising and supply is limited, we know what is going to happen,” he says. Avista is a German re-refiner with about 300,000 tons per year of combined base oil production footprint in Germany, Denmark and the United States. The company produces Group II in the United States and is upgrading its facility in Germany to produce Group III. Majic says that “Oil can be green, oil can be clean and oil can be sustainable.” His wish list is to see carbon footprint included in future base oil specifications. In Europe, as well as the rest of the world, the industry uses the base oil classification contained in Annex E of API 1509. API 1509 describes the voluntary Engine Oil Licensing and Certification System (EOLCS) of the American Petroleum Institute (API). All base stocks are divided into five categories. Groups I to III are classified according to their saturates, sulfur and viscosity index (VI). Group IV base stocks are polyalphaolefins (PAOs) and Group V are all other base stocks that are not Groups I-IV. 

Guest: Bruce Davidson, tennis analyst We reflected on the South African tennis team going down 4-1 to Luxembourg in their Davis Cup World Group II playoff in Esch-sur-Alzette at the weekend. The result means South Africans are relegated to Regional Group III events to be played later this year. We spoke to tennis analyst Bruce Davidson.

Bob and André talked to Sudarmanto Budi Nugroho (“Toto”) and Eric Zusman, two IGES experts who were involved in Working Group III (Climate Mitigation) of the 6th Assessment Report (AR6) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The latest report in the IPCC AR6 series, the WGIII Report summarises the latest knowledge on climate mitigation options, building on the work of Working Groups I (the Physical Basis of Climate Change) and II (Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability). The reports that the IPCC has produced since its establishment in 1988 tell us where we are with climate change and produce scientific inputs that inform policy and decision-making to address this crisis. The IPCC is the only UN body for assessing the science of climate change.We had such a fascinating discussion learning about the process of producing the report, including the review process of each chapter and the complicated issues around equity in selecting members of the Working Groups. In this conversation, we did not dive into the nitty-gritty details of the report, but this is what we know: we are not curbing emissions fast enough to be on track to limit warming to 1.5ºC, and national goals have to be even more ambitious.  The good news is that the cost of technological innovations has come down faster than previously anticipated, lowering the barrier to taking action. There is an ever-narrowing but still open window of opportunity.On another occasion, we hope to have a chance to revisit the report's content in more depth.Helpful resources:IGES' Special Webpage on the IPCCIPCC AR6 WGIII ReportAbout our guests:Sudarmanto Budi Nugroho (referred to as “Toto” in this conversation) is a Research Manager in IGES' City Taskforce.  He co-authored Chapter 10 on transport, as well as the Summary for Policymakers (SPM).Eric Zusman is Research Leader in IGES' Integrated Sustainability Centre.  He co-authored Chapter 17: Accelerating the transition in the context of sustainable development."About Sustainability..." is a podcast brought to you by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), an environmental policy think-tank based in Hayama, Japan.

Gas to Liquid (GTL) base oils have become reasonably popular in the industry over the last decade. Primarily produced by Shell at the Pearl GTL facility, there are some misconceptions around the actual process. Marketed as "PurePlus" technology in both Pennzoil and Shell finished lubricants, the base oil has also found it's way into many industrial products. But how does it stack up compared with other base oils like PAO? Does it truly deserve it's Group III "+" moniker? Trevor Gauntlett returns to explain.

The school has had considerable success in basketball The girls' basketball team, led since 1972 by New Jersey's winningest girls' basketball coach, Jeff Jasper, has won 30 consecutive league titles (1979 through 2008), and seven county championships to go along with multiple state titles. The girls' basketball team won the Group III state championship in 1981 (vs. Camden Catholic High School), 1982 (vs. North Hunterdon High School) and 1989 (vs. Mainland Regional High School), and the Group II title in 2005 and 2008 (vs. Rumson-Fair Haven High School in both years). In 2008, the Indians won the Group II State title with a 58–52 win against Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School, qualifying for the state Tournament of Champions, and giving Jasper the 800th coaching victory. Jasper was inducted by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association into its Bollinger High School Hall of Fame in 2006. The 2010 girls' basketball team was NBIL champions and won the North I, Group III state sectional title, defeating top-seed Teaneck High School 51-47. Jasper earned his 900th win in January 2013, joining Bob Hurley as the only other coach in state history to reach that mark. On January 11, 2018, Jasper earned his 1,000th career coaching victory with a 73-25 win against Northern Highlands Regional High School, becoming the first girls basketball coach in New Jersey to reach this milestone, joining Hurley again as the only other high school basketball coach in New Jersey with 1,000 or more wins @jasperpascack --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kevin-furtado/support

This JCO podcast provides observations and commentaries on the JCO article entitled "Indeterminate Pulmonary Nodules at diagnosis in Rhabdomyosarcoma: Are they clinically significant?"  A report from the European Pediatric Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study Group by Bas Vaarwerk, MD et al. My name is Alberto Pappo and I am the head of the division of solid tumors at St Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, TN. My oncology specialty is pediatric oncology.  In this report, Bas Vaarwerk, and investigators from the European Pediatric Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study Group evaluated the significance of indeterminate pulmonary nodules at diagnosis in children with rhabdomyosarcoma defined as the presence of less than 5 pulmonary nodules measuring less than 5mm or 1 pulmonary nodule that measured between 5 and 9 millimeters. This analysis included 316 patients who were enrolled on the EpSSG RMS 2005 study for non-metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma from September 2005 through December 2013 and for whom chest computed tomography scans were obtained at diagnosis and were available for review. Treatment in the EpSSG RMS 2005 study was stratified according to risk group, pathology, post-surgical stage, site, nodal involvement, size and age. All patients received multi agent chemotherapy with ifosfamide (except for low risk patients), vincristine and actinomycin D (IVA chemotherapy). High risk patients were randomized to IVA or IVA with doxorubicin and after 9 courses if in complete remission, were eligible for a second randomization between end of therapy and additional maintenance therapy with 6 courses of vinorelbine and cyclophosphamide Local control was determined by risk group, tumor site, age and response to therapy and radiotherapy was given at week 13 in doses ranging from 36 to 51.4Gy. All chest computed tomography scans were reviewed by the local radiologist at the treating center. Data was obtained and recorded using case report forms.  All computed tomography scans were performed with minimum slice thickness of 3 to 5 mm.  The median age at diagnosis for the 316 eligible patients was 5.4 years and the median follow up time for the cohort was 75 months.  There were 249 (78%) patients who did not have a pulmonary nodule and 67 (21%) who had at least one indeterminate pulmonary nodule. Patient and treatment characteristics were similar between the 2 groups; 80% of the patients presented with Group III  unresectable disease, 54% had high risk disease, and 71% had favorable histology tumors such as embryonal histology tumors.  Twenty four percent of patients received maintenance chemotherapy and 77% were treated with local radiotherapy A total of 100 nodules were identified in the 67 patients. Nodules ranged in size from 1 to 8 mm.  69% of the patients presented with one pulmonary nodule, 92% of the patients had nodules that measured less than 5 mm 85% of the nodules were unilateral. The 5-year event-free survival for patients with indeterminate pulmonary nodules was 77% and for those without nodules 73.2%. These differences were not statistically significant with a p value of 0.68. The 5-year overall survival rates were 82% for patients with indeterminate pulmonary nodules and 80.8% for those without nodules. The differences between these 2 groups were not statistically significant with a p value of 0.76.   There were no significant differences in outcomes based on the number or size of the nodules.  Similarly, there were no differences in clinical outcome based on histology, fusion status, age and type of chemotherapy received. Lung metastases developed in 3% of patients with indeterminate pulmonary nodules and in 1.6% of patients without nodules a value that was not statistically significant. The authors conclude that the presence of indeterminate pulmonary nodules in newly diagnosed children with rhabdomyosarcoma as defined in this report does not adversely affect the outcome of these patients and these children can be adequately treated with non-metastatic risk-based clinical protocols. This report highlights the challenges of assigning risk and therapy based on the presence of a limited number of small pulmonary nodules in children with newly diagnosed rhabdomyosarcoma when they are detected using newer imaging modalities such as thin cut computed tomography of the chest. The authors have successfully demonstrated in this retrospective study that newly diagnosed patients with rhabdomyosarcoma who present with indeterminate oligometastatic disease to the lung which in this study was defined as the presence of 4 or fewer pulmonary nodules measuring less than 5 mm or one nodule that measures 5 to 9 mm, have similar outcomes to patients who present without pulmonary nodules. More importantly, these patients can be treated with less intense trials that may include the use whole lung irradiation which is known to significantly increase the risk of breast cancer in childhood cancer survivors. The authors have implemented a standardized definition for indeterminate oligometastatic lung disease which is highly reproducible and easily implemented.  Their results are thought provoking and deserve further validation in a well- designed prospective clinical trial. Because of the lack of pathologic correlation with imaging findings in this report, it is not possible to determine which patients truly had oligometastatic disease to the lung. It is conceivable that some of the 67 patients with indeterminate nodules did not have actual metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma in the lung, or alternatively these results may also indicate that current risk-based therapies for localized disease are effective at eradicating small oligometastatic disease. It is important to point out however, that in this report, about one fourth of the patient population was assessed using reconstruction widths of ≤ 1.25 mm, which might have identified a larger number of small nodules of uncertain significance. In addition, 69% of the patients with indeterminate nodules had only one nodule, 92% had nodules that measured less than 5 mm and 85% had unilateral disease.  All of these factors have been associated with a significantly lower likelihood of identifying biopsy proven metastatic disease in pediatric patients with sarcomas. These findings raise questions as to whether thin cuts < 5mm in thickness are of any value in the assessment of pulmonary metastases in children with rhabdomyosarcoma. In summary, this report opens new areas for clinical research that could lead to a uniform strategy for defining metastatic pulmonary disease in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma and a more precise method for  risk-stratifying disease in this patient population.   This concludes this JCO Podcast. Thank you for listening.

Read the related article "Addition of Vincristine and Irinotecan to Vincristine, Dactinomycin, and Cyclophosphamide Does Not Improve Outcome for Intermediate-Risk Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group" on JCO.org This JCO podcast provides observations and commentary on the JCO article “addition of vincristine, irinotecan to vincristine, dactinomycin and cyclophosphamide does not improve outcome for intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma a report from the Children’s Oncology Group by Hawkins, et al.” My name is Alberto Pappo and I am a pediatric oncologist and Head of the Division of Solid Tumors at St Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Investigators of the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) developed a prospective randomized study to improve the outcome of patients with intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma by comparing the addition of the doublet vincristine and irinotecan (which will be called the irinotecan arm) to standard vincristine actinomycin D and cyclophosphamide (which will be called the VAC arm) to VAC chemotherapy only. Intermediate risk disease comprises the largest subgroup of patients with rhabdomyosarcoma and comprises patients with embryonal histology who present with tumors that are non-metastatic and unresected and arise in unfavorable sites as well as patients who present with non-metastatic alveolar histology tumors. The authors nicely review prior failed strategies that were aimed at increasing the outcome of this group of patients including dose intensification of active agents as well as the  addition of novel agents such as ifosfamide, etoposide and topotecan. 1-3 Irinotecan is a prodrug that is converted to its active metabolite SN38 and inhibits topoisomerase I. In a front-line trial for patients with metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma demonstrated a high level of activity with a 70% early response rate and an 8% disease progression rate.4 Based strong preclinical and clinical data, this agent was incorporated into an upfront randomized trial for rhabdomyosarcoma testing the benefit of adding vincristine and irinotecan to standard VAC in intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma. Eligibility criteria included patients with embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma who had stage II and III clinical Group 3 disease and any alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma without evidence of distant metastases.  During the first 12 weeks the two treatments were identical in duration of schedule with the exception of the substitution of irinotecan for dactinomycin and cyclophosphamide at week 4 and for cyclophosphamide at week 7 and 10 in the irinotecan arm.  During the next 30 weeks irinotecan replaced actinomycin D and cyclophosphamide at weeks 16, 19, 25, 31 and 37 in irinotecan arm.  Patients were evaluated for response at week 15, 30 and at the end of therapy.  Radiation therapy unlike the prior COG D9803 trial  started early at week 4 instead of 12 and the dose was determined by the clinical group and histology with doses ranging to 36 Gy for those with clinical group I and II to 50.4Gy for those with Group III disease. The study was designed with an 80% power to detect an overall increase in the long term event-free survival from 65% with VAC chemotherapy to 76% with the doublet VAC VI with a sample size of 486 patients.   Between December 2006 and December 2012 there were 481 patients enrolled on the study of whom 33 were ineligible.  Of the remaining 448 eligible patients 222 were randomized to VAC and 226 were randomized to the irinotecan arm.  The patient’s characteristics were similar between both arms and to other COG trials. There was a slight predominance of males, 61% of patients were between 1 and 10 years of age and 71% were Caucasian.  Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma was the predominant histology seen in 53% of the patients and 86% had clinical Group III disease. The most common primary site was parameningeal followed by bladder prostate, extremity and retroperitoneum.    With a median followup for surviving patients of 4.8 years the estimated 4 year event-free survival was 63% for the VAC arm and 59% for the irinotecan arm.  The estimated 4 year overall survival rates was 73% for the VAC arm and 72% for the irinotecan arm. There were no differences in radiographic response among clinical Group III patients as assessed by institutional report by week 15 and no evidence of differences in outcome by treatment arm in the histologic subgroup analysis.  When compared to the previous trial D9083 which had slightly different eligibility criteria, there were no differences in event and overall survival for patients with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. However, patients with embryonal tumors had an inferior 4 year event-free survival in this trial when compared to patients in D9803 although the 4 year overall survival rates were similar.  The vast majority of treatment failures were due to tumor progression or recurrence. The 4 year local failure rate was 22.4%, the 4 year regional lymph node failure rate was 5.7% and the 4 year distant failure rate was 18%.  Hematologic toxicity and febrile neutropenia were more commonly observed in the VAC arm whereas diarrhea and mucositis were more prevalent in the irinotecan arm. Hepatopathy was more common in the VAC arm and patients in the irinotecan arms who developed grade 3 4 diarrhea were more likely to carry the UGT1A1  7/7 genotype.  The authors conclude that the addition of vincristine and irinotecan to a VAC backbone failed to improve the outcome of patients with intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma. However, the lower cumulative doses of cyclophosphamide in the irinotecan arm which could potentially reduce the risk of infertility in selected patients and the lower rates of hematologic toxicity in this regimen have provided a rationale for the COG to use a VAC irinotecan backbone in their current up front randomized trial for intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma.   This trial highlights the lack of significant advances in the therapy of pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma despite the fact that irinotecan showed significant preclinical and clinical activity in metastatic patients with this disease.5,6 Similarly, in a previous study, the addition of another camptothecin, topotecan failed to improve the outcome of intermediate risk patients despite promising clinical activity in newly diagnosed metastatic patients 7suggesting that identification of novel agents based on their activity in  phase II window studies for high risk rhabdomyosarcoma is not an optimal method for selecting active compounds that could be incorporated into front-line studies for intermediate risk disease. As suggested by the authors of the paper just discussed, other novel mechanisms of drug testing such as randomized phase II studies in recurrent disease might offer alternative more effective strategies for identifying agents to be tested in intermediate risk patients. In contrast to this results, the European Pediatric Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study Group has recently reported at the ASCO 2018 meeting improved outcomes for a similar population of patients when maintenance therapy with low dose cyclophosphamide and vinorelbine is added to a backbone of vincristine, ifosfamide and actinomycin D (VAI). 8  In this trial, patients with non metastatic incompletely resected embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma arising in unfavorable sites and localized alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma without nodal metastases who achieved a complete remission after 9 cycles (27 weeks) of VAI with or without doxorubicin were randomized to stop treatment or receive maintenance chemotherapy with six 28 days cycle of vinorelbine and cyclophosphamide.  The study was initially designed with an 80% power to detect an increase in the 3 year EFS from 55% to 65% with a hazard ratio of 0.67 but was then amended to allow detection of a relativity reduction rate in the relapse rate of 50%.  This trial accrued 670 patients of whom 371 were eligible and 186 were assigned to the standard arm and 185 to the maintenance arm.  The clinical features were well balanced between the two groups. With median follow up of 5 years in surviving pts, the 3 year event-free survival and overall survival in the maintenance arm and the standard arm were  78.4% vs 72.3% (p value 0.061) and 87.3% vs. 77.4 (p value = 0.011).  The investigators concluded that the addition of maintenance therapy is a novel strategy that improves the outcome of this group of patients with rhabdomyosarcoma and establishes the new standard of care for patients in Europe.  The results of this trial however, need to be interpreted with caution and cannot be generalized. The follow-up of patients is relatively short and only those who achieved a complete radiographic response after chemotherapy were eligible to be randomized, no information was provided regarding outcomes of patients who were randomized to receive doxorubicin, there are only 9 cycles of chemotherapy given prior to randomization to maintenance therapy whereas the COG studies give 14 cycles of therapy and finally, there are slight differences in the eligibility criteria when compared to the previous COG  trials.    In conclusion, the addition of an irinotecan backbone to standard VAC chemotherapy does not improve the outcome of patients with intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma. However, the irinotecan containing regimen offers potential advantages such as outpatient administration of chemotherapy, reduced hematologic toxicity and cumulative cyclophosphamide exposure and has therefore become the standard backbone for patients with intermediate risk rhabdomyosarcoma in the United States.  This concludes this JCO podcast.  Thank you for listening.

Sweet Remedy's Week of Mental Health Concludes with a great guest! Professional Profile Dr. Edward F. Group III founded Global Healing Center in 1998 and currently serves as Chief Executive Officer. At the forefront of the research and development team, Dr. Group assumes a hands-on approach to producing new and advanced degenerative disease products and information. http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/ Dr. Group has studied natural healing methods for over 20 years and, though he no longer sees patients individually, now focuses on spreading the word of health and wellness to the global community. Under his leadership, Global Healing Center, Inc. has earned recognition as one of the largest alternative, natural, and organic health resources on the Internet. Armed Forces Career Dr. Group enlisted in the Army in 1985 and completed basic and infantry training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He was assigned to the 4th Infantry Division out of Fort Carson, Colorado and transferred overseas to the 1/506 Infantry Regimen at Camp Greaves, Korea. While in Korea, he was honored to be accepted by one of the top Korean Tae Kwon Do masters for martial arts training.  His military duty is highlighted by two Army achievement medals, a good conduct medal and an overseas ribbon.

Two-component signaling systems are widespread in bacteria, but also found in fungi. In this study, we have characterized TcsC, the only Group III two-component sensor kinase of Aspergillus fumigatus. TcsC is required for growth under hyperosmotic stress, but dispensable for normal growth, sporulation and conidial viability. A characteristic feature of the ΔtcsC mutant is its resistance to certain fungicides, like fludioxonil. Both hyperosmotic stress and treatment with fludioxonil result in a TcsC-dependent phosphorylation of SakA, the final MAP kinase in the high osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway, confirming a role for TcsC in this signaling pathway. In wild type cells fludioxonil induces a TcsC-dependent swelling and a complete, but reversible block of growth and cytokinesis. Several types of stress, such as hypoxia, exposure to farnesol or elevated concentrations of certain divalent cations, trigger a differentiation in A. fumigatus toward a "fluffy" growth phenotype resulting in white, dome-shaped colonies. The ΔtcsC mutant is clearly more susceptible to these morphogenetic changes suggesting that TcsC normally antagonizes this process. Although TcsC plays a role in the adaptation of A. fumigatus to hypoxia, it seems to be dispensable for virulence.

In this study the effects of the OvSynch procedure on ovarian function and fertility of acyclic cows and those with ovarian cysts were investigated and compared with cycling cows in an OvSynch programme. This field trial was conducted on 50 farms in a practice district in Upper Bavaria between November 2002 and November 2003 and included a total of 199 dairy cows. Cows were examined by rectal palpation and ultrasound before the OvSynch programme was initiated. In cases where ovarian cysts were detected (one or more follicles >2.5 cm), the OvSynch programme was started immediately (n = 89; Group III). If no ovarian cysts were present, a milk sample (Day -10) was collected for the determination of the progesterone concentration (enzyme-immuno-assay in skimmed milk) and the OvSynch programme was started 10 days later. All cows were treated with GnRH (Day 0), PGF2α (Day 7) and GnRH (Day 9) and inseminated 15-20 hours after the second injection of GnRH. Milk samples were collected from all cows on Day 0 and 7, on the day of artificial insemination and 10 days later. Cows without ovarian cysts were classified in two groups retrospectively according to the progesterone concentration on Day -10 and Day 0: Cows with low progesterone (< 0.5 ng/ml) on both occasions were considered to be acyclic (n = 39; Group II); all other cows were assumed to be cycling (n= 71; Group I). The percentage of cows with a high progesterone value at the first injection of GnRH was 73.2%, 0% and 13.5% in Groups I, II and III respectively. The percentage of cows with a high progesterone value was 45.1%, 36.8% and 57.3% on Day 7 and 84.5%, 92.3% and 82.9% 10 days after artificial insemination in Groups I, II and III respectively. The synchronization rate was 80.3%, 84.2% and 80.7% (Groups I, II and III). The conception rate during the OvSynch programme was 47.9% in cycling cows (Group I), 71.8% in acyclic cows (Group II), and 31.5% in cows with ovarian cysts (Group III). Judged by the progesterone levels, the results of this study show that it was possible to induce luteal function in a high number of acyclic cows. The results also suggest that this treatment can be applied successfully in cycling and acyclic cows when no ovarian cysts are present.
