Accuracy across label schemes

The headline accuracy is lexEN v1 · WordNet fine-grained. Each cell re-scores this run's predictions against a different gold label set and sense granularity; coarse counts a prediction correct when its WordNet sense maps to the same Glite or CSI concept as a gold sense.

Alimta is used to treat two types of cancer: pleural mesothelioma (cancer of the lining of the lungs that is usually caused by exposure to asbestos).

Alimta is used together with cisplatin (another anticancer medicine) when the cancer is unresectable (cannot be removed by surgery alone) and malignant (has spread, or is likely to spread easily, to other parts of the body), in patients who have not received chemotherapy (medicines for cancer) before advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that is not affecting the squamous cells.

Alimta is used in combination with cisplatin in patients who have not been treated before, and on its own in patients who have received another type of chemotherapy in the past.

The medicine can only be obtained with a prescription.

How is Alimta used?

Alimta should only be given under the supervision of a doctor who is qualified in the use of anticancer chemotherapy.

The recommended dose of Alimta is 500 mg per square metre of body surface area (calculated using the patient s height and weight).

Of all scenes that evoke rural England, this is one of the loveliest: An ancient stone church stands amid the fields, the sound of bells cascading from its tower, calling the faithful to evensong.

The parishioners of St. Michael and All Angels stop to chat at the church door, as members here always have.

In the tower, five men and women pull rhythmically on ropes attached to the same five bells that first sounded here in 1614.

But there is also a discordant, modern note in Aslacton, though it can not be heard by the church-goers enjoying the peal of bells this cool autumn evening.

Like most of the other 6,000 churches in Britain with sets of bells, St. Michael once had its own "band "of ringers, who would herald every Sunday morning and evening service.

Now, only one local ringer remains: 64-year-old Derek Hammond.

The others here today live elsewhere.

They belong to a group of 15 ringers -- including two octogenarians and four youngsters in training -- who drive every Sunday from church to church in a sometimes-exhausting effort to keep the bells sounding in the many belfries of East Anglia.

"To ring for even one service at this tower, we have to scrape, "says Mr. Hammond, a retired water-authority worker. "

We've tried to train the youngsters, but they have their discos and their dances, and they just drift away. "

Mr. Hammond worries that old age and the flightiness of youth will diminish the ranks of the East Anglian group that keeps the Aslacton bells pealing.

It is easy to see why the ancient art is on the ropes.

Ringers memorize patterns of changes, known as "methods, "which have odd-sounding names like Kent Treble Bob Major or Grandsire Caters.

A series of 5,000 or so changes is a "peal "and takes about three hours.

A look at a Thursday night practice at St. Mary Abbot church in the Kensington district of London gives an idea of the work involved.

Ten shirt-sleeved ringers stand in a circle, one foot ahead of the other in a prize-fighter's stance, each pulling a rope that disappears through a small hole in the high ceiling of the ringing chamber.

No one speaks, and the snaking of the ropes seems to make as much sound as the bells themselves, muffled by the ceiling.

Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls.

Far above in the belfry, the huge bronze bells, mounted on wheels, swing madly through a full 360 degrees, starting and ending, surprisingly, in the inverted, or mouth-up position.

Vicar Marshall admits to mixed feelings about this issue, since he is both a vicar and an active bell-ringer himself.

"The sound of bells is a net to draw people into the church, "he says.

"I live in hopes that the ringers themselves will be drawn into that fuller life. "

The Central Council of Church Bell Ringers, a sort of parliament of ringing groups, aims to improve relations with vicars, says John C. Baldwin, president.

It hopes to speak to students at theological colleges about the joys of bell ringing and will shortly publish a booklet for every vicar in the country entitled, "The Bells in Your Care. "

Says Mr. Baldwin, "We recognize that we may no longer have as high a priority in church life and experience. "

Mr. Baldwin is also attacking the greater problem: lack of ringers.

Mr. Baldwin is also attacking the greater problem: lack of ringers.

One survey says that of the 100,000 trained bellringers in England today, only 40,000 of them still ring.

Also, ringers do not always live where the bells need to be rung -- like in small, rural parishes and inner-city churches.

But the council's program to attract and train ringers is only partly successful, says Mr. Baldwin.

"Right now, we're lucky if after five years we keep one new ringer out of 10, "he adds.

One bright sign is that a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field; more than a third of the ringers today are women.

One survey says that of the 100,000 trained bellringers in England today, only 40,000 of them still ring.

Also, ringers do not always live where the bells need to be rung -- like in small, rural parishes and inner-city churches.

But the council's program to attract and train ringers is only partly successful, says Mr. Baldwin.

"Right now, we're lucky if after five years we keep one new ringer out of 10, "he adds.

One bright sign is that a growing number of women have entered the once male-dominated field; more than a third of the ringers today are women.

They are not accepted everywhere, however.

The oldest bell-ringing group in the country, the Ancient Society of College Youths, founded in 1637, remains male-only, a fact that's particularly galling to women because the group is the sole source of ringers for Britain's most prestigious churches, St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey.
