Weekend Watch: Sony Xperia Z vs Nokia Lumia 920
Here's a quick comparison between Nokia's Lumia 920 and Sony's Xperia Z.
Sony's Xperia Z and Nokia's Lumia 920 are both camera phone supremes. One has a brand new Sony Exmor RS sensor capable of HDR video while the other is loaded up with optical image stabilisation for the best night time shooting there is. How do they stack up against one another though?

Android Jellybean is light years ahead of Windows Phone 8.
May be not light year ahead but JellyBean still better than WP8. For example, Customization in Andriod is much simple and flexible than WP8. Jellybean also very stable and powerful.
On the other hand, WP8 interface is very simple and easy to use ie low learning curve. Unfortunately, N9 Meego is Mile ahead WP8 in term of simplicity and addictive to use. N9′s feeds is really good and i not sure Jellybean any app for it.. N9 multitasking capability can kill WP8 instantly in just one simple shot !
After 1 month intensive use of my Galaxy Note II, i felt that Android really got a lot of hidden function for me to learn, very interesting ! Recently, I like my living aquarium as my live background, and i don't think WP can to that.
Conclusion, IMO, Android is more complex and suitable for hi-tech user, tinkerer (ie those like exploring and love complex menu/upgrading, etc), etc, and WP is more suitable for simple user such lady, Wife, oldie, kids and those adult do not want complexity in their life (simple and plain).
What a load of tosh. I especially liked the blatant sexism etc. in the last paragraph…
I laughed so bad when a read "android is stable and powerful". Is a giant crap.
Calm down, there's a 4 month difference between the announcements and the Z isn't available yet. Also, Nokia is expected to unveil something (a 920 successor?) at MWC – it's just the pace of technology. Plus the only thing Sony has is 2 more Krait cores, 1 GB RAM and camera. Also a 1080p display versus 1280×768. I can't really see what makes it light-years ahead.
Design-wise, that's another matter, of course design is subjective. But overall you could say it's metres or even miles ahead if that soothes your Android spec-overblowing ego.
Exciting until it dawns on you that Nokia unfortunately will never put everything into just one product. Been a Nokia user for over a decade and a half and I've yet to see it.
The n8 had everything. I want a new phone with everything in it, like the n8 at its time.
yes windowsphone 8 is far better than 7.5 but jelly bean overall is a better os.
Why is it?
Xperia Z smoked Lumia 920 hands down.
Xperia Z got higher resolution camera (13Mpixel) and is waterproof (IP 57 certified !!!)!, Full HD (1920×1080) !
However, 920 got OIS (damn good !)and better low light capture (but i hate this and it capture not 'real' photo).
A real low light picture is dark. I just saw an iphone low light picture from a girl at a store and it's really real, but you couldn't see anything.
Yes, iOS is KING for 'beautifying' photo captured ! Previously Nokia N8 claimed natural capture but 920 is targeted for different segment ie good details for nite shot and NOT intended to capture 'natural' dark.
Why on Earth would you want full hd on a 5″ screen?
The answer is simple: your screen and mine also same both 5″, but yours is 720p and mine is 1080p full HD.
Hence, i WON and you lost ! My phone is better than your phone. Plain Simple.
Damn it, you're right!
We are going through a size thing at the moment. This may take years to play out. Bigger screen eats more battery. Higher resolution eats more battery. Is that important to you? I have a Nexus 7. The size is great in my hand, and I like the large screen, but there is screen wastage. The fonts don't go right to the edges etc
The best screen I have seen for fonts, (so far) is the smaller screen Lumia 800. Crisp, clear, no screen wastage.
no its not right! how abot 5 inch with 1080p and 4.5 with 720p i think both it same because our eye limitations just 300ppi
that 13Mpixel camera is not good. When will people learn not to look at Mpixel count
Yep, it is in line with my comment about screen resolution. Right now it is bigger = better. What do I care as a user if my phone has an octo-core if the duo-core gives the same or better experience?
This spec race and OS-war is such a waste of space.
You forgot-
Dolby sound
Nokia music ( no subscription )
Nokia exclusive apps ( such as maps and city lens )
Xbox glass
Cant wait to see what else Nokia and Xbox have in store for us…….. ok not waterproof or IP57 or whatever but this thing has hammered nails NAILS on youtube so tough as a $2.00 steak for me screen on LUMIA is good enough I am LV FITTER in the mines in the outback of AUSTRALIA have to wear gloves as part of OH&S so NOKIA again wins for me ……thank you come again
Price: Lumia 920 £440, Xperia Z £440 plus for Xperia Z.
Power: of Snapdragon S4 Quad Core plus for Xperia Z,
Elegant design: plus for Xperia Z,
1080P display: plus for Xperia Z,

Eco System: No brainer plus for Xperia Z,
Camera: 13 Mpx plus for Xperia Z,

Yeah great review
I forgot to mention "WATERPROOF" biiiiiiiigggggggggggggg plus for Xperia Z
your opinion mate……..besides opinions are like a**holes…… everyone has one…….
Even quad core cpu can't allow android to run lag free
Look at all those finger marks on that Sony, so quick. It's changing color.
Sometime i wonder if Nokia can deliver just one android phone per year, say, like just at 820 grade but not 920 level in order to comply agreement with MS, and see how much this phone can sell…
Even HTC bring do more than one and financially they're certainly worse off than Nokia at this moment (that's a part of their problem, though..). Of course it'd sell, just look on any tech site's comment section and you're bound to see a 'If Nokia built Android phones, they'd go like hot cakes' whenever the words Nokia and Android are mentioned no less than 2 paragraphs apart.
That said, this year or 2014 could be the time to look for alternatives. Not the Tizen vaporware or Firefox OS-class design, but maybe Ubuntu if they get their act together or even Sailfish (wouldn't that be ironic..)
total baised comparison… :@
guy jolts at the notification center saying you mite miss out on calls and texts..
either this guy does'nt know anything about live tiles and lockscreen, or he is pretending to not know.
last was the funniest part about hardware were he mentioned u need more for 3D games and stuff, WINDOWS Phones require less proccessing to run u fool.
He also finds Lumia 920 odd to hold in hand… JERk…
for me i still think that is lumia 920 is better than xperia z because in genral the andriod is laggy
Lumia 920 is still too expensive for its specs. The xperia ZL is good looking (lumia 920 also is, but still), takes better photos (e.g. not blurred around the edges), and, has really attractive specs all around (including an IR blaster like the N900). What the lumia has to its advantage is nokia apps like nokia drive, very solid construction, and, better mics for making video. IOS is cool but the sensor/camera firmware used in the phone is rubbish. I'll wait for the nokia's MWC and for sony to announce the ZL price final price (estimated at 600€) to make my next smartphone choice (N900 user).
I'm open to both, but the ZL seems like the better choice ATM.
And by the way! Having an xbox360, I wonder where are the games for windows phone? Cross play, game augmentation (like wii U) etc? Microsoft is seriously lagging!
BTW I meant OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) :p
So annoying how instagram is brought up everytime anyone reviews a WP.
For me, i was a little disappointed that i wouldn't be able to use BBC iPlayer on the 920 until i realized I'd managed without it on the N9 for the last 10 months, and before that had only used it a handful of times on the N8.
Also 13MP camera inside a 6.9mm thick phone? Remind me again why the N8 and 808 have those big humps on them?!?
ya.. Its really sad how misinformed consumers are on imaging thanks to years of misleading marketing from the camera manufacturers.. The 13mipx sony is the typical 1.1 micron mess.. Nothing special
Nokia will showcase a new design at MWC next month (less curves, more sharp corners), so it's pointless comparing last years flagship model to a handset that hasn't even been released yet.
Not pointless, the WP already is out and the Z is just surfacing.
MWC may just show a new WP, but when will it reach us? 12mths?
Its simple. Have you used the 12MP camera o the xperia S? Its by the far the worst camera I have used. Its cannot even focus and has a very narrow field of view. Its worse thatn all the 5 MP cameras i have used on my N series. Now the 12MP camera on the N8 is just awesome.
I have the Sony Xperia Z and have just bought my partner a Nokia Lumia 920 and have to say that the windows 8 operating system runs a lot more efficient than the Android one. I also found that the screen is very nice and sensitive and there has been no lagging or freezing issues with the Nokia. Unfortunately I have experienced Lag and hanging with the Xperia Z.
The Nokia Lumia also feels much more durable compared to the Xperia Z, In other words I think my Xperia Z would shatter if dropped where the Nokia Lumia feels like it could take more of a knock if dropped which lets face it most of us have done at some point.
If you want a phone to Phone, Text, Email and browse the web I would go for the Nokia Lumia 920 but if you want all the apps under the sun then the Xperia Z could be the better option.
I personally prefer the Nokia Lumia 920 after using both the reviewed handsets.

APEX — The six candidates running for three seats on the Apex Town Council agree the town needs more jobs so residents don't have to commute to work.
What they don't agree on is how to bring in those jobs.
Incumbents for the Nov. 5 election say they are reluctant to add town staff, while challengers are pushing to hire liaisons, ombudsmen and a part-time or full-time economic development position.
The town has no full-time staffer dedicated to economic development, an anomaly in the Triangle for a town its size. With a population of about 40,000, Apex is the third-largest town in Wake County.
The candidates' ideas range from using economic incentives and contracting with the Apex Chamber of Commerce to maintaining a low tax rate and high development standards.
The completion of N.C. 540 and the new Apex Friendship High School could bring more residential rooftops, and retail development likely would follow.
But the town needs to do more to attract small businesses, industrial manufacturing and high-tech jobs, according to some candidates.
Currently, Apex's tax base is 80percent residential and 20percent commercial. That's one of the lowest commercial rates in Wake County, and it means the burden of the town's property taxes mostly rests on homeowners.
"I think you have to be balanced," said Nicole Dozier, a paralegal and advocate for the N.C. Justice Center. "For a town to be healthier, more viable, it needs to be more than a bedroom community. We have to have more things for people to do to keep us here. I work in Raleigh, I buy gas in Raleigh, eat in Raleigh, buy groceries in Raleigh."
Dozier said she would like to see a healthplex, kid-friendly businesses, some professional offices and clean technology and start-ups in Apex.
She's willing to look at incentives, especially for start-ups, she said, but she isn't likely to consider a tax increase and is wary about tax breaks.
"When you talk about giving tax breaks it becomes hard to balance," she said. "I'm looking at, is there money available through the town to attract ideas and take burden off homeowners?"
Until about four years ago, Apex was against offering tax incentives. During the economic downturn, town leaders began to change that way of thinking. In 2009, the town offered EMC a cash grant to expand its site and bring 64 jobs.
Earlier this year, the town passed an official incentives policy and included it in Wake County Economic Development's guide for prospective businesses.
Several other candidates said they would like to see the town add an economic development staff position to attract industry and work in partnership with the chamber.
Town Manager Bruce Radford doubles as the director of economic development, and Public Information Officer Stacie Galloway is expected to spend 30percent of her time on economic development.
"I'd like to see more industrial, manufacturing, more large business," said Jennifer Ferrell, a stay-at-home and former business development manager who is running for a seat on the council. "Not commercial, not retail. More like a SAS, IBM, Lenovo, to take on the tax burden and to keep people working and living here."
That would allow parents to spend less time commuting and more time with their kids, she said.
If the town can find money to buy road signs promoting its status as the ninth Best Place to Live in America, then it can find money for economic development staffing, Ferrell said.
Public-private partnerships
Apex High School teacher Denise Wilkie brands herself as a fiscal conservative.
"Nobody wants to hear, 'Let's spend more money,'" she said. "I'm thinking private-public partnerships. Let's pay the chamber or pay someone on staff, let's shift some monies. Sometimes you have to do that to make money."
Wilkie said she would be willing to consider reinstating the contract with the Apex Chamber of Commerce. Before 2009, Apex paid the chamber for economic development and business recruitment.
"I do hear people say they would like to be able to work here and live here," Wilkie said. "We have a lot of talented people who would like to have an office here and not drive out of town. They would like a medical complex here."
About 24,000 residents in Apex commute out of town to higher-paying jobs, according to town data collected during the comprehensive plan process.
Candidate Chad Price, vice president of sales and operations at CRC, a disaster restoration company, lives and works in Apex.
"I like the idea of having a true liaison between the town and a potential new business owner. Someone to help guide you through the process from start to finish," Price said in his candidate survey for the Apex Chamber of Commerce.
Marketing the town
Attracting business isn't about spending money, said incumbent Councilman Eugene "Gene" Schulze.
"The way you spur economic development is to promote business-friendly policy such as low taxes," Schulze said. "I think we could do a better job to promote ourselves. That we ranked number nine (on Money Magazine's Best Places to Live in America list) says a lot about us. We need to make sure that message gets out."
While Schulze said he would like to see the town do more work with the chamber, he didn't provide specifics. He did not commit to spending more money on economic development, having an official contract with the chamber, or spending more money on marketing.
"I'm not an economic developer," Schulze said. "I'd rather people who know business do the work. How much do we financially support (the chamber)? I want to revisit it. I think we need to consider it."
Incumbent Terry Rowe said Apex hasn't spent much on economic development over the past few years because of the slow economy.
"The town couldn't afford to spend a lot of money," Rowe said.
Like Schulze, Rowe said the town needs to do a better job of marketing.
"I think we need to encourage more communication about the things that are going on," Rowe said. "More things are going on than (people) are hearing about."
Along with getting a policy plan listed in the Wake County recruitment guide, the town considered getting certified sites near Veridea where the town could provide infrastructure.
Veridea, a 1,000-acre mixed-used development with commercial and residential, is expected to attract about 20,000 residents over the next 20 years.
"We used to have a contract with the chamber.… I think it's time we need to look at that again," Rowe said. "Whether it's a part-time employee or partnership with the chamber. As the economy begins to pick up, we need to supplement that effort."
At the same time, Rowe said, Apex can't loosen its design standards to attract business.
"The economy is changing, and I think there are opportunities out there," he said. "We need to put extra effort to make sure Apex is getting their fair share. We can't grow and lose sight of design standards. We do have above-average requirements, but that's why we're able to preserve good growth."

Here's a couple of slightly off-the-beaten-track places to enjoy Paris in the springtime.
First, the Square des Batignolles, which was one of twenty-four gardens created in the mid-1800s as part of the modernisation of Paris by Napoleon III and Baron Haussmann. It is a park à l'anglaise (that is, laid out naturalistically) with undulating lawns and a fine array of old trees, including four of the biggest plane trees in the city. The planting is generally slightly unusual for a public park – walnuts, elms, a twisted willow, purple beech, Turkish hazels, a hardy bitter orange, and a giant sequoia.
With its rustic concrete bridges, grottoes, cascades, false rocks and meandering waterways, the whole thing has a delightful nineteenth century feel. The flower beds are maintained in the same spirit, particularly so in spring, when the city parks department plants out tulips and massed spring bedding.
The park also boasts a rather lovely round glasshouse installed in the 1990s, hundreds of ducks of a variety of breeds, flocks of chaffinches with their distinctive song, and a range of activities for kids, including a carousel, pony and trap rides, and two very popular playgrounds.
In these photos you can see the park as it was planted a couple of years ago. I was there again yesterday (in a major downpour) and the flowerbeds this spring are a mass of yellow tulips among purple bedding.
Square des Batignolles is rather hidden away in the 17th arrondissement, near Porte de Clichy, and not very easy to reach on public transport, so it tends not to be on the typical tourist trail. As an added attraction to visit, all this week until Sunday (3 April) there is a brocante (a vintage market) immediately outside the park in Place du Docteurs Félix-Lobligeois, with a tempting range of furniture, linen, china and jewellery for sale. Also in the neighbourhood, every Saturday morning, is a wonderful organic market, with bio-dynamically grown vegetables and fruit, cheeses, breads, fresh fish, herbs, cut flowers and home-made produce.
I'll post the second suggestion for a springtime park tomorrow.

Dermatofibromas are small red-to-brown bumps that result from an accumulation of collagen, which is a protein made by the cells (fibroblasts) that populate the soft tissue under the skin.
Dermatofibromas are common among adults and usually appear as single firm bumps, often on the thighs or legs, and particularly in women. The bumps are usually less than half an inch in diameter. Some people develop many dermatofibromas. The cause is unknown, but they may be caused by insect bites. Dermatofibromas are harmless and usually do not cause any symptoms, except for occasional pain or itching. Usually, dermatofibromas are not treated unless they become bothersome or enlarge. A doctor can remove them with a scalpel.

Overview of Growths and Malformations of the Vessels

I am familiar with the medium of mosaic and have had the fortune of visiting several impressive installations during my travels. Ever since the first introduction, I have been fascinated by the diligence that must be required to assemble fragments of broken tile, mirror, glass, and other found objects to convey the artist's vision. A recent trip to Annunciation Hall on the campus of Mount Angel Seminary provided me with an opportunity to spend some quality time with an amazing example of mosaic art as well as an unexpected perspective of the "bigger picture".
As I enter the lobby of Annunciation Hall, the first impression I have is one of open airiness. This is caused in part by the vaulted ceiling and high arches that support it, but mainly by the ample use of glass where one would expect a more solid wall to be. Giant panes held suspended by an iron cruciform frame treat me to a special panoramic view of the southern Willamette Valley, now in the first stages of assuming the fiery golden hues of fall. I pause to reflect that all of Creation is brought into being through the amazing artist that is Christ. I feel certain this was the architect's intension.
The palette of the lobby consists mainly of pale, neutral colors that understate the immensity of the architectural features found within. As I move forward to get a better view of the local flora, my attention is commanded by the wildly vibrant colors of the Annunciation mural that was unassumingly waiting behind a column for this opportunity to leap off the eggshell colored wall. This larger-than-life mosaic has a significant impact. I must step back to take it all in. I watch as the little bits of smaltie begin corresponding with one another in unity, blending to form the images of the Angel Gabriel and the Virgin Mary. It boldly proclaims a moment, out-of-the-ordinary, a fragment of a day in the life of a young woman, an encounter that changed the world.
My eyes are first drawn to the Angel Gabriel. I think this is due to the way the bright green outer garment is in contrast with the warm, golden background. It demands my attention. The dark green that is in the interior fold of his cloak leads my eyes to his left hand. He is holding a small scroll. He has something to say. The scroll points to his right arm that is concealed in a voluminous white tunic with only his hand showing. I wonder for a moment how I came to the conclusion that his tunic is white. There is very little white used at all; the predominant colors alternate between a myriad of beautiful grays and sweet sea foam green. White is held in reserve for the highest of highlights. It appears to me the artist has rendered the colors of a pearl of great price. Warm terracotta fragments add to the depth of the shadows in his sleeve and serve as a reminder not to linger, but to follow the wrinkles and folds up this servants arm to a free hand that is raised in a gesture of blessing toward the Virgin.
She stands draped in royal violet, scarlet, and gold that gives away her identity. She is a queen. Behind her is a structure that I don't understand at first. A conversation with the iconographer, Br. Claude Lane, over dinner shines some light. The building represents the tabernacle from the Old Testament, the Holy of Holies, now transposed by the tabernacle of the New Covenant, Mary the Mother of God.
I look to the beauty of her face and realize that neither she nor St. Gabriel are looking at the other, rather, both gazes are fixed intently on the true subject of the icon. Somewhat in the background, but now brought to the forefront when my attention joins Mary and Gabriel's, is the Holy Trinity. I can quickly recognize the Holy Spirit as represented by a dove, and the Word of God is in the book on which the Spirit rests, but where is the Father? Is he in the pink and light gray clouds that billow around the altar that supports the images of the Christ and the Paraclete? Maybe he is the dark blue-gray background, the mysterious unknowable cloud.
The answer came with a cognoscente "ah-ha" during the same conversation with Br Claude as he explains Fr. Jeremy's thoughts on representing the Trinity in the icon (it takes a community to write an icon). The Father is the Altar. The Father is the plane of reality that holds all in existence, that supports the Son and the Holy Spirit. The red cloth draped over the Altar, which parallels the red cloak wrapped around Mary's shoulders, tells the rest of the story. The color spells out the flesh and blood in which the Word is made manifest and the vessel chose to carry this Divine Condescension to term. The very notion that the God of the Universe would be so humble as to assume the very nature of Its creation in order to bring about reconciliation with Itself fills me with quiet awe. It strikes me that even the generous expanse of gold which serves as a heavenly backdrop, as it descends to meet with the shades of earthen browns that fill the lower portion of the background separated at the horizon by three narrow bands of pinkish-red, whispers the truth: Heaven and Earth meet in the flesh.
The dynamic movement of the colors in the foreground shifts my focus from the subtle gradations of the background and I raise my eyes again to the Trinity. I pause briefly again on the mystery in the blue-gray before my attention is swept away and brought back to the Messenger on azure wings. The arching movements of his wings are sudden and swift but momentum slows and comes to rest on a stance that is easy and sure. A posture that says, "Relax, I'm a professional." As this is juxtaposed with Mary's halting, rigid stance, it gives me the impression that she is startled. The crimson yarn she holds in her hands is pulled taut. Yet she has peace written in her facial features like she remembers, "Oh, wait, I know the answer to this…it's Yes!" She is the epitome of humble obedience in her recollection.
I move closer to take in the details (and to avoid the stampede of seminarians moving from class to class). My mind reels thinking about the time and effort it must have taken to bring this project to fruition. All those thousands of cubes of broken glass, sharing similar qualities and a common purpose, yet each one is unique, hand-picked to play a very specific role. Individually they hold very little significance, just a tiny shard of colored glass. Collectively, however, they are mysteriously bound together to tell the Good News, to be the Annunciation, the message of hope.
In this moment of personal calm amidst the bustle of academic life, the thought occurs to me that this beautiful icon is no mere show piece to adorn the lobby of one of several buildings that make up the Mount Angel Seminary campus. No, it is more than décor. Nor is to serve simply as a sign to inform visitors of their current location, as if one would look up and say, " Oh look, there's a giant mosaic of the Annunciation of Christ. I must be in Annunciation Hall."
No, this blessed icon must serve a much greater purpose than these. I recall Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger explains it as such: "The point of the images is not to tell a story about something in the past, but to incorporate the events of history into the sacrament" (p117 ).He goes on to say, " The events themselves transcend the passing of time and become present in our midst through the sacramental action of the Church" (p117).
This icon serves as a window to bring Mary's date with destiny here to us now, to our present that we, men and women from all walks of life, of all different sizes, shapes and colors, may join with her in humble obedience. Each one of us has heard at some point the greeting of the messenger and responded in trust to the words, "Do not be afraid. You have found favor with God." It is in this response that we become the fragments of broken tile, mirror, and shards of colored glass that are being assembled to convey the Artist's vision. Mysteriously bound together in Christ, we become the prismatic spectrum resounding in unison with Mary's fiat. Behold the servants of the Lord. Let it be done according to your word. We are the Annunciation mosaic; God with us.

On the Run from Main Street: Sinclair Lewis & the Novel that Changed Everything
Produced by Britt Aamodt
In 1930, Sinclair Lewis became the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. But in the early 1920s, Lewis, or "Red" as he was called, became a best-selling author with the publication of Main Street--an expose of small town life that celebrated its people while exposing its weaknesses. Lewis published 22 novels during his lifetime, but none matched the success of Main Street. Producer Britt Aamodt investigates the life of Sinclair Lewis, from his upbringing in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, to his death in Rome in 1951 from years of alcohol abuse.

I need information about...
You had a procedure to insert an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Once inside your body, an ICD monitors your heart rhythm (the speed and pattern of your heartbeat). If this rhythm becomes too fast or too slow, the ICD sends out electrical signals. These help bring the rhythm back to normal. As you recover, follow the instructions below. Also follow any other directions you're given.
Don't drive until your doctor says it's okay.
Limit your activity as instructed.
If you are fitted with an arm sling, keep your arm in the sling for 24 hours.
Do not raise your arm on the incision side above shoulder level for 10 days. This gives the device lead wires time to attach securely inside your heart.
Ask your doctor when you can expect to return to work.
Every day, take your temperature and check your incision for signs of infection (redness, swelling, drainage, or warmth). Do this for 7 days.
Take your medications exactly as directed. Don't skip doses.
Carry an ID card that contains information about your ICD. You can show this card if your ICD sets off a metal detector. You should also show it to avoid screening with a hand-held security wand.
Before you receive any treatment, tell all healthcare providers (including your dentist) that you have an ICD.
Keep your cell phone away from your ICD. Don't carry your phone in your shirt pocket, even when it's turned off.
Avoid strong magnets. Examples are those used in MRIs or in hand-held security wands.
Avoid strong electrical fields. Examples are those made by radio transmitting towers, "ham" radios, and heavy-duty electrical equipment.
Avoid leaning over the open hood of a running car. A running engine creates an electrical field.
Make regular appointments with your doctor. He or she will check the device to make sure it continues to work properly.
See your cardiologist in 7-10 days. Call and make an appointment as soon as you get home.
Call your doctor immediately if you have any of the following:
A "shock" sensation from your ICD
Fever above 100.4°F
Signs of infection at your incision site (redness, swelling, drainage, or warmth)
Twitching in your chest muscles
Increased pain around your ICD
Bleeding at the incision site
Arm swelling on the side of the incision

Alyssa Moore won four events and the Floyd Central girls' track and field team won the two-day Jeffersonville Inferno.
"We're happy, but we're definitely not satisfied," Moore said. "It's a solid start, but we still have a lot of work to do. It's a great starting point for everybody, but we're all hungry to get better. We're not at the top of our game yet, but it's still early and there's time."
Floyd coach Kyle Weigleb saw a lot that he liked.
"We're going in the right direction," he said. "Our goal is to peak at sectional and regional."
The Highlanders held off defending champion New Albany by 22 points, thanks largely to Moore's performance.
The senior won the 800-meter run by nearly eight seconds over Jeffersonville's Taylor Hines and anchored the winning 1,600 relay, 3,200 relay, and the distance relay.
"I came in expecting to put in a good, hard effort and to leave in a lot of pain — in a good way," Moore said.
"I thought Alyssa Moore did an unbelievable job," Weigleb said. "If they would have handed out an MVP, she got it."
Madison Barney won the 1,600 and Rachael Kavgazoff cleared 10-feet, 6-inches to win the pole vault.
The Highlanders also proved to have the most depth at the meet.
"We got a lot of good performances from several people," Weigleb said.
New Albany was inhibited in its effort to repeat with senior star Phoebe Bauer, who won four events at the Inferno a year ago, still out with an injury.
"I wish she was here," Moore said. "I love those [New Albany] girls. We're supposed to be rivals, but we're really allies. We all cheer for each other."
New Albany scored a ton of points in the sprints with Jayla Bethel, Courtney Palmer and Aaliyah Bell all scoring in the 100 and Bethel and Bell take third and fifth, respectively, in the 200.
Bell, Bethel, Lauren Kessinger and Blake Mayfield also combined to win the 400 relay.
The host Red Devils finished third behind the performances of freshman Hailey Lacy and sophomore Chelsea Lewis.
"We always want to win, but our goal was really to finish in the top three," Jeff coach Ericka Herd said. "We achieved that goal."
Lacy won the long jump and was runner-up in the 400. She also finished eighth in the 200 and was a member of the Devils' second-place 1,600 relay.
"She had a phenomenal weekend," Herd said of Lacy. She scored a lot of vital points. Not a lot of freshmen do that."
Henryville's Sadie Spears continued her rise among area distance runners. The junior pulled away from Floyd freshman Lydia Kotowski — the News and Tribune Cross County Runner of the Year — on the final two laps to win the 3,200 in 12:29.
"It's always good to come in first," Spears said. "My time was disappointing, but [Coach Jason Conrad] said it was all right. My time's improved a lot already [from last year]."
Scottsburg's Morgan McNeeley swept the sprinting events and Jennings County's Keri Ertel dominated the hurdle events.
Evansville Harrison repeated as boys' Inferno champions with 159 1/2 points, well ahead of runner-up Evansville Memorial.
Floyd Central finished third with a pair of wins from thrower Codie Hamsley and by scoring in every event except the long jump.
Hamsley — the state runner-up in the discus a year ago — appeared to be in mid-season form with a throw of 188-1. He also won the shot put with a toss of 51-7.
Jeffersonville finished fourth and senior Tyrell Dowdell stole the show for the Red Devils.
Dowdell easily won the 400, ran a 49.9 split in the 1,600 relay and upset New Albany's Jermaine Parrish by .12 seconds.
"My day went very good," Dowdell said. "I'm very excited. I'd like to run the 400 a little faster, but beating Jermaine Parrish was the highlight of my day."
Parrish is the defending state 100-meter champion and finished second in the 200. Dowdell, who has gone back and forth between sprints and middle distance, now believes he's found his event in the 200 after beating his rival.
"It gives me a little confidence," Dowdell said. "But I have to keep working hard on it. There's a lot of stuff I can get better at. I'm definitely going to try to go to state in the 200."
"Tyrell can run anything he wants to run and do well at it," Jeff coach Mark Felix said. "He's a very special talent. We've always known he's had 200 speed, but he's never been crazy about running it. Beating Jermaine, I think he realizes now [he's a state contender]. It will motivate Jermaine, too."
Chase Scott won the long jump for the Red Devils with a leap of just over 22 feet.
"He's already jumping better than he did last year," Felix said of the 2012 state finalist. "He seems a lot more focused."
Teammate Guy Oliver, who was seventh in the high jump, finished three spots behind Scott.
About an hour after returning from a Spring Break trip to Washington D.C. and New York City, Borden senior Brian Eurton showed up at Jeff to run the 1,600.
After spending 14 hours on a bus overnight, Eurton went out and won the 1,600 in 4:37, over two seconds faster than runner-up Jonah Woods of Jennings.
"The pace went out slow," Eurton observed. "The last lap I kicked it in and it was actually a pretty fast time. I definitely gained confidence gauging myself against a lot of [the athletes] in the sectional. Borden doesn't get to run in very many big meets, so it was pretty nice."

Get behind Rosie
I am writing this letter in support of Rosie Steffens, former executive director for the Leelanau County Commission on Aging. As I know Rosie personally as well as professionally, I feel I can say without a doubt, that she is one the best, if not the best, executive directors in a six-county region that anyone could hope to hold that position. I say six-county region only because that is where we live, as she might even be the very best in the whole State of Michigan. She is a hard-working, honest, dedicated and loyal individual whose main concern is "the seniors." She even took time out of her own personal life to play Santa Claus for the seniors to make sure they too could feel the joy at Christmas.
I feel now is the time for us to stand up and be counted on her behalf. She dedicated over 26 years taking care of "her seniors." She personally visited them to sign them up for the services they needed. You do not find that happening with every Commission/Council on Aging.
Come on seniors, let's get behind Rosie. Thank you.
Carol Hynes
