A master copy of the sarod, a 25-stringed, lute-like, Indian legal instrument, Khan has brought the Northern Indian classical music to the outside microscope stage. A five-time Grammy prospect, Khan was called, by Yehudi Menuhin, "an out-and-out mastermind, the sterling player in the reality." Tracing his ancestral roots to Mian Tansen, a 16th century player in the courtyard of Emperor Akbar, Khan began perusing music at the age of three. Initially perusing vocal euphony with his father-God, he studied drums with his uncle, Fakir Aftabuddin. Although he time-tested playing a spacious change of instruments, he felt virtually comfortable on the sarod. Training and practicing 18 hours a 24-hour interval, he slowly down pat the musical instrument. In 1936, he made his populace debut during a concert in Allahabad. In the early '40s, Khan became a royal court musician for the Maharaja of Judhpur. He shortly acquired the statute title "Ustad" (master instrumentalist).


In 1955, Khan recognized an invitation from Menuhin to perform in the United States. In addition to playing at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, he recorded the commencement Western album of Indian classic music and became the number one Indian music on an American telecasting when he appeared on Alistair Cooke's Motorcoach. In 1971, Khan performed with his brother-in-law, Ravi Shankar, during George Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh at Madison Square Garden. Khan received legion awards including the President of India Award in 1963, the Padma Vibhusan in 1988, the Bill Graham Lifetime Achievement awarding in 1993, and the Asian Paints Shiromani Hall of Fame Award in 1997.

Separate Submission Of Standard Lymphadenectomy In 6 Packets Versus En Bloc Lymphadenectomy In Bladder Cancer

�UroToday.com - The praxis of lymphadenectomy during radical cystectomy for muscle encroaching bladder cancer is not standardized. There is a wide variation in the number of nodes retrieved. Recent studies suggest that both the number of nodes removed and the method of submission of lymph node specimens touch on the treatment outcome. Some recent papers have too indicated that the lymph node specimens separately retrieved and submitted for pathology have a greater bit of nodes compared to en axis resection. In the award study, we sought to identify if there was a difference in the number of nodes retrieved between one by one retrieved and submitted pathologic specimens and specimens from en axis resection.



Guidelines for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer by the European Association of Urology commend limited pelvic node dissection, consisting of removal of the tissue in the obturator fossa in patients undergoing surgery with a curative aim.

Several authors have noted an improved 5-year survival of the fittest rate with extensive pelvic lymph node dissection in the patients with node-involved bladder cancer. Some investigators have noted that the quality of radical cystectomy procedure is judged by number of nodes retrieved.

They institute that a minimum of 9 nodes was required to be examined to accurately assess nodal involvement. They too found that survival improved in both patients with and without node involvement as the number of the remote nodes increased.

They besides evaluated the impact of submitting nodes en axis or as separate packages and suggested that submitting nodes as separate packages not only is easier, but likewise optimizes the evaluation and number of the lymph nodes retrieved. Some studies indicate that lymphadenectomy in combination with RC can cure a small fraction of node-positive patients

We evaluated data on 77 patients with radical cystectomy and either standard pelvic lymph node dissection or en bloc lymphadenectomy were reviewed. Nodal dissection specimens during standard lymphadenectomy were sent for pathology examen in 6 separate containers marked as external iliac, internal iliac, and obturator groups from both sides. en bloc dissection specimens were sent in 2 containers marked as the right and the left pelvic nodes. Clinical and pathological findings of these two groups were compared in footing of the number of dissected lymph nodes, number of nodes with metastasis, lymph node density, and clinical outcomes. There were 34 patients with monetary standard lymph node dissection and 43 with en bloc lymphadenectomy. The median numbers pool of nodes removed per patient were 15.5 (range, 4 to 48) and 7.0 (mountain chain, 1 to 24) in those with standard and en bloc lymphadenectomy, respectively (P en bloc resection. Obturator nodes were the most usually involved nodes in our study.



We found that the numeral of the nodes retrieved per specimen increases significantly if dissection and meekness of the nodes is done in the anatomically defined areas rather than en bloc submission.

Coldplay guitarist Jonny Buckland has admitted that the band have felt little pressure during their recent comeback shows.



Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, Buckland said that their two London shows, in Brixton on Monday and BBC Television Centre on Wednesday, had both been “really fun” to play.



"You don't have to be great if nobody is paying any money,” he said.



As previously reported on Gigwise, Coldplay are expected to top the UK singles charts on Sunday with 'Viva La Vida', the title track off their new album.



With the album currently at number one in the album charts, Buckland said he was “quite excited” about scoring a chart double.



"I can't really believe it but then it's probably not going to happen anyway, is it?" he said.

Libertines duo reunite to pen stage musical

Pete Doherty and his former bandmate Carl Barat have reunited to write a stage musical together, it has been confirmed.
The pair, who were formerly in The Libertines, will write the musical for the Donmar Warehouse in London.
A spokesperson for the theatre, which is located in London's Covent Garden, said its associate director, actor Douglas Hodge, had been working with the songwriting duo.
The project, however, was "very much in the early stages of development, with no deadlines attached", she said.
According to various reports, the musical will document the struggles of an up-and-coming rock 'n' roll band.
Last April, Doherty and Barat performed together for the first time since the Libertines split up in 2004.
Both have new band projects, with Doherty fronting Babyshambles and Barat currently working on his second album for Dirty Pretty Things.
Their one-off reunion in April followed an interview with Barat in which he said he would be "happy" to work with Doherty again "at some point".
At last week's NME Awards, Barat told the Sunday Mirror he had been approached by the Donmar to write a musical with Doherty.
He said: "The theatre wants lots of new songs. We'll probably have to write about 20."
