As an industry gathering place for the worldwide construction industry, the CONEXPO–CON/AGG construction exposition provides exceptional educational and networking opportunities. The show—which takes place March 11–15 at the Las Vegas Convention Center—includes more than 2000 exhibitors.
In addition to learning about the latest products and equipment, attendees can earn CEUs through more than 120 educational sessions, grouped into specific tracks, including: Concrete, Asphalt, Environmental/ Recycling, Earthmoving, Construction Project Management, and Safety.
Also, the co-located International Exposition for Power Transmission technical conference offers the latest research and educational sessions for design engineers, March 12–14. Plus, attendees can benefit from free sessions in the Innovation and Solutions Center, March 11–14.
For a full schedule, educational sessions, and interactive show tour, visit www.conexpoconagg.com.
The SHO-HD lighting system for portable light towers is designed for use in the company's SHO parallel lamp fixtures for mobile applications. The 1250 W lamps produce 150,000 lumens—a 30% increase in light input and a 20% increase in coverage area over the company's 1000 W system. This enables better object recognition and increased jobsite safety. Allmand Bros. Inc. www.allmand.com. CONEXPO–CON/AGG Booth G-184.
Designed to replace electric hammer drills, the Model 65B on-grade concrete drill fits in a 2-ft. patch, making it one of the most compact pneumatic drills on the market. It operates on a minimum of 20 cfm and drills holes from ½ to 1/8 in. in diameter. It also drills to 8 in. deep in a 2-ft. patch, and up to 12 in. in a 30-in. area. The drill can be adjusted to center on slabs as thick as 2 ft. E-Z Drill Inc. www.ezdrill.com. CONEXPO–CON/AGG Booth S-8633.
Ideal for concrete and asphalt breaking applications, TEX pneumatic handheld breakers feature vibration reduction and ergonomic upgrades that enhance comfort and productivity. For instance, a wear-resistant polyurethane silencer dampens the noise from compressed air pulsations. Plus, a two-step trigger allows full control of the chisel when starting a cut. And a high power-to-weight ratio and low center of gravity reduces operator fatigue. The breakers deliver 1500 bpm. Atlas Copco Construction Tools LLC. www.us.atlascopco.us/usus. CONEXPO–CON/AGG Booth C-7321.
DV Series tandem-drum vibratory compaction rollers now feature Tier III engines that deliver 31 to 48 hp (the previous engines delivered 27 to 38 hp). The rollers can be used in asphalt and granular material applications, and on steep surfaces. Hydrostatic drive supplies variable speed to both drums for great traction, while speed and forward/ reverse are controlled with one lever. Case Construction Equipment. www.casece.com. CONEXPO–CON/AGG Booth N-1609.
With its insulated electric-heated hopper and thermostat, the FP5 Flameless Pothole Patcher reduces material waste while keeping asphalt pliant and at a constant temperature. The damaged area is first removed and squared off with the pavement breaker. Then the air and tack wand blows out any remaining debris and applies the tack coating. The material chute delivers fresh, hot asphalt and consolidates the material evenly with existing pavement. Bergkamp Inc. www.bergkampinc.com. CONEXPO–CON/AGG Booth S-544.

She was the perfect image of a movie star, and as such largely the creation of her own indomitable will. She had, of course, very remarkable material to work with: a quick native intelligence, tremendous animal vitality, a lovely figure, and above all her face, that extraordinary sculptural construction of lines and planes finely chiseled like the mask of some classical divinity from fifth-century Greece. It caught the light superbly. You could photograph her from any angle, and the face moved beautifully. But she was serious with it: serious about improving herself as an actress, serious about her total dedication to onscreen stardom.

Happy Birthday Joan Crawford! (March 23, 1906 - May 10, 1977)

5 'Toxic Stocks' to Sell in 2013
NRG Energy
Despite what's been a good year for electricity generator NRG Energy (NRG), this stock is starting to look toppy.
Specifically, it's a double top pattern in shares of NRG that looks bearish. A double-top pattern is formed by two swing highs that come in at approximately the same price level. They're separated by a swing low that's the breakdown level for the pattern -- a move below that low triggers the sell signal in shares. For NRG, that sell signal comes on a move below $19.50.
It's important to remember that it doesn't matter why selling pressure is coming into NRG right now -- the two tops on this chart show us that it is. Now, it's just a question of whether that newly introduced selling pressure can overcome the holdout buyers sitting below $19.50. If they do (with a breakdown), then it's time to exit this stock -- or even bet against it. If you decide to take the short-side, I'd recommend keeping a protective stop on the other side of the 200-day moving average.

The spring sports season is underway, and I've enjoyed catching some of the early season action over the last two weeks.
There's plenty to look forward to with New Albany baseball coming off of its big win in the NEMCABB tournament last summer, and East Union also returns a talented squad that could make a run in 2A. And also in 1A, the county teams lose a lot from last year, but you can never count them out in the playoffs.
Also, defending 1A softball north half champion, West Union, will look to make another trip to Jackson.
Not only focusing on baseball and softball this spring, there are several other teams that could find success, particularly track, where the county has been known to have success. East Union will add on that sport this year, and has been doing well in its first season in powerlifting.
In golf, I'll be most interested in seeing how Molly Hale performs this year and if she can bring home the individual title in 1A, something she was close to doing last year. In preparation for the new seasons, the Gazette will publish the final sports magazine of the school year next Wednesday.
Included in the spring sports magazine are season previews for each baseball and softball team in the county, along with team pictures for archery, bowling, golf, powerlifting, track and tennis.
I'm proud to have had this opportunity to provide these glossy publications for all of you this school year, as it gives all of the kids, any sport, a chance to have equal coverage.
In the coming weeks, there's plenty to keep all of us busy with the county baseball tournament at Myrtle during spring break and the county softball tournament following the next weekend.
I'm excited for the last leg of the school year and look forward to hopefully seeing some of our schools make it far in the playoffs and maybe even to Jackson.
And now that it's warming up, don't be surprised if you see my four-legged assistant, Lucky, joining me at all the ball games.

After a busy summer of practice and swim meets, the YMCA of the Treasure Coast's Wahoos swim team competed in a championship swim meet and took first place.
The Wahoos are part of the South Florida Recreational Swim League and have been competing throughout South Florida since 1994.
This is their fourth year straight of winning the division title as a team, in addition to five years of first in girl's high point with a few other bronze and silvers mixed in the boy's category.
"The team is really focused on giving all kids the opportunity to compete and be part of a team, and it takes the entire team to win gold," said Itzou Shamli, Wahoos head coach.
The YMCA of the Treasure Coast Wahoos swim team is a year-round program with three competitive seasons each year.
The year-round program gives the opportunity for 30 to 40 swimmers each season to swim for a goal whether a personal goal or a team goal. Each season consists of daily practices, monthly meets and a seasonal championship meet.
To learn how to join the YMCA of the Treasure Coast Wahoos, call (772) 286-4444, email email@example.com or visit www.ymcatreasurecoast.org.

5. Waterproof sunscreen does not exist. After swimming or sweating yourself a disgusting storm, they say it is best to re-apply the sunscreen ASAP.
4. Clothing will not provide protection. A lighter colored shirt usually will have an SPF of 7 and will decrease through the day. You can't say mom didn't tell you so!
3. SPF 15+ is necessary. Anything less would just make you a… girly man. If you are a female, just ignore that last statement.
2. Apply sunscreen every two hours. This is probably the biggest reason everyone gets fried. Ladies I know you're too busy flaunting around the pool in that skimpy bikini. But trust me those guys will lose interest fast when your back is flaking. Apply the sunscreen!
1. Apply the right amount of sunscreen. The studies say that an average adult needs an ounce of sunscreen to be properly protected. They say the majority of people only use HALF of the amount necessary. Just make sure to re-apply deodarant afterward to deflect the 'screen smell!
I hope these tips help you tomorrow, and the rest of the summer for that matter. You can't say Krash didn't tell you so!
New J-LO Vid, And It's Not Music!
An intimate home video of Jennifer Lopez in the 90's may be internet ready soon. Whatever "intimate" exactly means is to be debated! Former husband Ojani Noa had property of the vid and sold it to his current girlfriend. The video was in an agreement not to be released for over a decade now. However with the sale of it a court ruled it could be resold to a distrubutor and thus released. Fanboys will be "googling" for this a lot in the coming weeks!

Teen Styles 25K Dress To Prom!?
Credit: AP photo/family photo via The Oakland Press
This is a $25,000 dress worn by a lucky Michigan teen after winning a local radio contest. The sparkly outfit was originally worn by Christina Ricci at the 1999 Oscars. You talk about ballin' girl! I must say this is putting the dress to good use! I often wondered what the stars do with these outfits after they wear them one flippin' time to an awards ceremony? I wonder if any wise guys like myself tried to win this contest just to Ebay the dress?
Japan Is Not Russell's Brand
Russell Brand joined wife Katy Perry on her Japan tour this month. Unfortuantely for Russell he was DEPORTED earlier today! Apparently this stems back to criminal charges more than a decade ago. No "get out of jail free card" in Japan Russell!

COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) - The Coldwater School Board voted last night to expand the preschool program. Next year, a 4 year old program will be held in the afternoon the three year old program will continue to be held in the morning, the kindercare learning academy and the kindercare childcare center will be held at Lincoln school.

Their goal is to get kids at age three and keep them, through the 12th grade. Coldwater Superintendent Dr Tina Kerr said Branch Intermediate School Districtneeds a place said that they can send their preschoolers to when their sessions are done for the day.
The Coldwater Community Schools Kinder Learning Academy provides a fun, activity-based learning environment that will help kids with kindergarten readiness by encouraging educationally based play with physical activity, field trips, and healthy snacks.

Mark your calendars for this year's Slice Out Hunger fundraiser. It's happening on October 9 at St Anthony's Church at 154 Sullivan St (at Houston) in New York City. Doors open at 6 and over 35 of your favorite pizzerias will be there. We got Lombardi's, Difara, Two Boots, John's, Joe's, Luzzo's, NY Pizza Suprema, Sottocasa, Keste, Don Antonio, Forcella, Cowboy Pizza and LOTS MORE!
How does it work? You just show up, buy as many $1 tickets as you want, then exchange tickets for slices, sodas or desserts. Our sponsors have pledged to match every dollar we raise and all the money goes to Food Bank For New York City!
Check out our event website for more details, volunteer information and sponsorship opportunities.
Check out pizza tour guide Miriam's amazing pizza blog! The 'Za Report chronicles Miriam's personal journey through the pizza universe with photos and reviews of her cheesy adventures. She's a designer by trade and a true pizzaholic by heart so the blog both looks and reads perfectly.
I first met Pete Genovese in 2006 when I was a member of a day-long pizza quest for New Jersey's largest newspaper, The Star Ledger. Every summer Saturday, Pete loads the car, dubbed the Munchmobile, with a group of carefully-selected eaters to test a specific food within the state. This guy knows every angle of NJ and he's very selective when it comes to food. He has a special love for pizza, which led to a 6 month long pizza-only stretch of adventuring at the tail end of 2009. I was fortunate enough to be on the team for over 300 pizzerias across the Garden State. Pete dropped a book called A Slice of Jersey with stories and reviews of all the pizzerias we visited. But his thirst was not quenched. Pete undertook a mission of epic proportions with a book project about New York City pizza and that book is finally here in the form of Pizza City: The Ultimate Guide to New York's Favorite Food.
There are plenty of book about pizza. Trust me, I have at least one copy of each of them. Most go into the funky quirky tidbits of pizza history and folklore but Pizza City cuts right to what's most interesting: the people behind the pizza. It covers the most popular slice shops and pie palaces but also takes the time to profile lesser-known pizzerias. Take John's in Elmhurst, Queens. It's a small place on the corner run by a mother-daughter team. I've had the pizza and wasn't blown away by it, but the place has a real charm you can't duplicate.
There's also a review section of 250 pizzerias but it's more for context than reviews of the pizza. Pete writes about what was going on while he was eating his slice. I like that. Everyone has different taste and you can't base your opinion on his, so Pete gives you the info and lets you find out for yourself whether or not it's the greatest slice on Earth.
Full disclosure: there's a section about me and my pizza tour. But regardless of that, the book's still good! He also profiles other pizza enthusiasts and bloggers so you get a real sense of how crazy the pizza scene gets.
This book belongs on the shelf of every pizza fan… actually every human, because it shakes a food we take for granted down to what's important: people, pride and heart.

Miriam and Joe came over to make pizza with me LAST NIGHT!!!
My company is called Scott's Pizza Tours because I never envisioned anyone but me leading these cultural-culinary adventures around NYC. Turns out I was wrong. Miriam and Joe have been on board for the past couple of months after an exhaustive search for fun and exciting pizza enthusiasts to help lead folks through the city's ever-changing pizza landscape.
Both Joe and Miriam lead normal lives with normal jobs, but pizza is their passion so they scored some NYC Sightseeing Guide licenses and now they're cruising the streets looking for great slices. I'm beyond excited for anyone who gets to experience their tours.
Schedules aren't set in stone but Joe will be taking on Sunday walking tours through Greenwich Village and Soho, Miriam will have most Friday Crosstown Pizza Walks and I will still be doing every Sunday NYC Pizza Bus tour as well as walking tours and private tours most other days. We now have evening tours on Mondays and Thursdays plus more to come toward the end of the summer. Stay tuned!
You're lost. You're hungry. You need pizza. You have a wi-fi equipped mobile device. You are saved! Everybody knows about general food-locating apps like Yelp, Foursquare and Foodspotting but there are several apps dedicated solely to helping you find nearby pizzerias. Here's a quick rundown of four of them.
NAME: Pizza Finder
PRICE: FREE (you just have to deal with the ad at the bottom)
TERRITORY: Entire USA
DEVICES: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
Pizza Finder opens with a list of pizzerias in close proximity. You get exact distance, address and phone number right there on the main page. Clicking through to any pizzeria gives you its Yelp page for more details and reviews. You can even enter any location in the US and get a list of pizzerias if you want to plan ahead rather than wait until you're standing sliceless at an unfamiliar intersection. It's pretty much just a "pizza" search in the Yellow Pages.
Not a bad app if you're in a new apartment and want to order a couple pies for all the friends you roped into helping you move, but keep in mind you're depending on Yelp reviews to light the way to the right spot. Choose the wrong pizzeria and you'll have to find new friends for the next move.
Get Pizza Finder at the App Store
NAME: Cheazza
DEVICES: Compatible with iPad, iTouch and iPhone
As its name (sort of) indicates, Cheazza is all about helping you find cheap pizza. It lists chains, dollar slice shops and pizza deals by neighborhood or via a geo-location feature. In the screenshot above, you'll see Papa John's (#3 chain in the US), 2 Bros. Pizza (dollar slice chain around NYC), Crocodile Lounge (one of several NYC bars that offer a free personal pizza with every drink) and a couple other dollar slice joints. Come to think of it, Cheazza is technically an app that lists pizzerias you'll want to avoid! It amazes me that anyone New York would go out of their way to find a bad slice, but I suppose desperate times call for desperate measures. Use at your own risk!
NAME: Jeff Orlick's Real Pizza of New York
TERRITORY: New York Metro Area
DEVICES: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
Who is Jeff Orlick? He's a guy who lives in Queens and really likes good food. He's constantly searching for authenticity, honesty and general realness in eateries of all sorts but this app concentrates specifically on Jeff's personal pizza recommendations. Instead of searching based on proximity, Real Pizza suggests pizzerias based on user-selected filters (right screenshot above) such as borough, oven type and pizza style. There are also options to sort by price and neighborhood if you don't want to go with straight alphabetical order.
This is easily my favorite pizza-finding app because it features something none of the other ones have: curation. Orlick has clearly spent countless hours, days, months, years culling his list and it is constantly being revised and expanded. His app shows you photos he took and reviews he wrote with extra info you can't get from a simple phone book listing.
Real Pizza's only real downfall is that there's so much information that the app tends to run a bit slow and the navigation is a bit clunky. I also wish it had a geo-location function but my fingers are crossed that's coming with the next update. That being said, this is the only app for serious pizza enthusiasts and it's well worth the price of admission. (Full disclosure: My tour is listed on the app, but I'd dig it even if it wasn't.)
Get Real Pizza of New York at the App Store
NAME: Pizza Compass
TERRITORY: Earth
DEVICES: Compatible with iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch 3rd generation and later, iPad running iOS 6.0 or later
This one just came out and its release gave me an excuse to finally review the pizza apps that have been sitting on my phone for the past few years. It is without a doubt the most attractive and user-friendly of all selections in this post but at the same time one of the most basic.
The Pizza Compass website is brilliant in its simplicity. It has links to just a few of the massive number of press pieces written when the app dropped as well as a simple video of the app's "creator" (he's not listed as a copyright holder) giving a spiel about the app. I was really taken in by the video because it lays out that the app is simply for finding the closest pizzeria and not interested in cultivating an elite list of authentic options. In that sense, it's a lot like Pizza Finder (and the many other location apps I chose not to include since they're all the same) but Pizza Compass actually looks like a compass as it points you toward slice salvation. It has smart features like a smoke indicator to let you know when you're getting close and a red-green bar that tells you whether or not the place is currently open. It's a really clean design, perfect for helping you find those late-night (READ AS: drunk) desperation slices.
But is it the greatest app ever? Will it change your life? Is it a "tool…to help us celebrate life…love…adventure," as the video claims? No. No. Maybe. Because sometimes pizza isn't about historic coal ovens or 48 hour fermentation or mozzarella di bufala; it's about the comfort of a warm slice without having walked very far.

EAST EL PASO — A new store has opened up in the borderland. It's called Bake Me Happy and its doors are open in East El Paso. The shop has a chic look with what the owner describes as a whimsical Willy Wonka -type feel to it.
The cupcakes are baked fresh everyday and are dressed to impress with their own unique personality.
There are a variety of flavors.
"I wanted to put a shop together that would make people happy when they came in, I wanted to get all their senses," said owner Roseal Greenwood. "Their visual, their scents, smell, their tastes everything all in one because I just think there is nothing happier than treats cupcakes, cookies candies, cakes, everything like tat so it was really important for me that I did the whole entire thing so it is an experience in one."
Greenwood can also personalize her sweets to match invitations and party themes.
If you would like to visit the shop, stop by at the intersection of Montwood and Lomaland in the shopping center.

Former Waverly Hall police chief and Harris County Commissioner Wallace "Eddie" Marriner has died.
Marriner was the first African American police chief of Waverly Hall, and also served as a Harris County commissioner in the 1990's.
All flags in Waverly Hall were
flying at half staff Thursday in honor of Marriner known by many as "Moses".
Reports indicate Marriner died of natural causes Wednesday afternoon.
He joined the Waverly Hall Police Department in 1975 and became the chief in 1980. Everyone
in the community said they truly lost a great man that loved his
"There will never be
another chief like Chief Marriner. Chief Marriner was loved by every individual
in this town and I tell you, he loved all of us. Chief was good to everybody," Waverly Hall Mayor Rusty Bowden said.
Mayor Bowden said Marriner
leaves behind a son and daughter-in-law who've helped take care of him as his health
declined over the years.
"Thanks to them from the whole town of Waverly Hall for everything they've done for our chief," Bowden said.
Marriner was 76 years old.
Marriners body is
currently at Cox Funeral home in Hamilton. Visiting hours will be Friday
from 5- 7 p.m. The funeral will be Saturday
at 3p.m. at Springfield Baptist Church.

The Washington Traffic Safety Commission announced its "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign – a joint effort by local and state law enforcement agencies, the Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) and the Whatcom County Safety Task Force to reduce drunk driving over the holidays.
The holiday season is notorious for increased instances of drunk driving, and this initiative is aimed at curbing the practice. Extra officers will be on patrol between November 21 and January 1 watching for impaired drivers throughout the county.
WTSC director Darrin Grondel urged drivers to plan ahead. "Don't let a DUI ruin your holidays," he said. "Before you leave home for a party, think about how everyone can get home safely. Designate a sober driver, take a taxi or stay the night."
The costs of a DUI conviction are severe in Washington, where a driver is considered under the influence if he or she has a blood-alcohol content (BAC) of .08 percent or higher. The minimum penalty for a first offender includes: $823 in fines, $1,000 to install an ignition interlock on the offender's vehicle, one night in jail, a 90-day license suspension, and a year of alcohol evaluation and treatment, not to mention legal fees, a $150 reissue fee and higher insurance rates. The fines and penalties go up for repeat offenders or those with a BAC higher than 0.15 percent. Even those who refuse to take a breath test automatically lose their license for a year and pay a minimum of $350.
Authorities in Washington have recently adopted a slew of measures to fight impaired driving. In 2006, law enforcement agencies began a pilot program in Snohomish County called the Nighttime Emphasis Enforcement Team (NEET) and deployed Washington State Patrol (WSP) troopers who concentrated on nighttime enforcement of impaired driving laws.
In the first 27 months of the program, traffic fatalities in Snohomish County decreased by 40 percent, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. In 2010, WTSC, WSP and local law enforcement agencies began the Target Zero Teams project with the goal of expanding NEET to King and Pierce County, and ramping up the program in Snohomish County. Over the first 10 months of Target Zero, alcohol- and drug-related vehicle fatalities in those three counties decreased by 34.4 percent.
Ignition interlocks – devices that require users to blow an alcohol-free breath into a tube before being able to start their vehicle – have also shown promise. DUI-convicted drivers who install the cell phone-sized device on their vehicles must have a record of clean blows for the last four months of the restriction to get the device removed and be eligible for their regular license. "This ensures that drivers demonstrate the ability to separate their drinking from their driving," Grondel explained.

Holden Commodore-based dual cab ute was far from a polished product.
Holden's last convertible is now an affordable second hand summer runabout.
Overall a good car, I would buy another, was annoyed by the warranty problems, would have been most unlikely in a Japanese car. For rough road use is let down by the low profile tyres.
Holden's powerful flagship limousine is great value but watch out for flogged examples and old hire cars.
Turbocharged Barina isn't up to the same level as its hot hatch rivals, with the exception of price.
I love this car especially the gen111 V8 engine and the comfort is superb. Instant power and on the highway I get 7litres to the 100k which is excellent.
The last Aussie-built coupe is likely to become a collectible classic.
We absolutely love our Captiva, it's been reliable, it's great on fuel, has plenty of room to take our whole family on holidays.
This is not a "drivers car" by any stretch but as a simple, cheap company runabout it has performed really well.

2009 Aresti Sauvignon Blanc - Vincente Aresti and the Aresti family produce a fine line of wines that retail around $10. Their Pinot Noir at $15 is one of my favorite Pinots under $20 and a great QPR. In 1999, the Aresti family began making wine under their own label, acquiring new land and investing in technology. Today, three generations of the Aresti family dedicate their efforts and knowledge to producing widely recognized wines of the highest caliber.
This Sauvignon Blanc is an over achiever delivering knockout aromas of quince, gooseberry and the familiar fresh grapefruit. On the palate there's a clean straightforward style with focus and a hint of minerality. It's fresh, vibrant and not flabby. Enjoy on a weeknight when there's not enough time for an elaborate meal.
Panko Breaded Tilapia & Chilean Sauvignon Blanc
This recipe will work with other white fish, but I chose Tilapia because it's easy to find and it's affordable. There's a little fatty mouthfeel from the addition of mayonnaise along with a lemon citrus flavor, so I'm suggesting Sauvignon Blanc as a pairing. Chilean Sauvie B isn't usually mentioned in the same sentence with prime Sauvignon Blanc producing regions like New Zealand or Loire valley but there's some really well made QPR's to be had from South America. One gem delivering bang for the buck is the Aresti Sauvignon Blanc from Curico valley. If the wine reminds you of a New Zealand, it's partially because the style for this wine was developed by a winemaker from New Zealand in similar growing conditions.

Preventing Foot Injuries In Diabetic Athletes
- Volume 16 - Issue 8 - August 2003
- 7709 reads
- 0 comments
Key Pointers On Evaluating The Footwear Of Diabetic Athletes
It's also important to evaluate the diabetic patient's athletic gear.
Obviously, size is not the only consideration for proper shoe fit as a specific size shoe can come in many different last patterns. One should measure the foot with a dependable measuring device. Shoes should fit properly while the patient is weightbearing. The widest part of the shoe should accommodate the metatarsophalangeal joints. There should be three-eighths to one-half of an inch between the longest toe and the tip of the toe box, and adequate space around the heel. The athletic footwear should also have adequate "breathability" in order to avoid the buildup of thermal energy within the soft tissues of the foot, which can lead to tissue damage.
When they are used properly and have a proper fit, running shoes have been shown to be a valuable aid in reducing plantar foot pressure. In one study, running shoes reduced the tendency for plantar foot callus and decreased forefoot pressure by 30 percent, with pressure reduction of 44 percent under the second metatarsal head.
Since foot orthoses and inserts comprise common treatment modalities for sports related problems, you need to evaluate these as well for appropriateness and condition. About 90 percent of runners continue to use their orthotics after their condition has improved, with an average duration of 23 months. An orthotic device that may have been helpful at one point may be inappropriate or even detrimental two or three years later, and thus must be discontinued or changed.
Final Notes
Patient education is the most important part of managing the diabetic athlete. The education should be designed to meet the needs of each patient, considering his or her athletic activity and diabetic foot status. Obviously, a strategy of prevention is preferable to treatment in terms of cost to the patient and discomfort. The injured athlete should complete a program of rehabilitation in order to successfully return to full activity and continue his or her exercise regimen. If the athlete has healed from a foot ulcer, the goal is to prevent re-ulceration.
Preventing injuries involves proper selection of clothing, shoes and the surface to be trained on, as well as good training techniques and proper preparation. Knowledge of the causes of foot infection, ulcerations and injuries by the athlete is an essential part of the prevention process.

Four Common Bike-Travel Hazards
Photo: Jered Gruber
By evening we found ourselves back in the flatlands of the Po River valley, heading toward our lodging for the night: the Castello di San Gaudenzio, north of Voghera. Over time, this 15th-century palace has been occupied by such aristocratic families as the Viscontis of Milan; recently restored and expanded into a four-star hotel, it is attentive to period details, most notably suits of armor standing guard in the hallways. Together with the empty, high-ceilinged rooms whose entrances they oversee, the silent knights imparted an air of hauntedness to the accommodations. I wouldn't have wanted to meet them in the middle of the night, so I stayed in my room after dinner.
Of course, this might have also had something to do with that pinot nero.
THE NEXT DAY we had an appointment with Italian cycling history: We were going to visit the Coppi museum.
Fausto Coppi—"Il Campionissimo"—is one of the most revered figures in the annals of Italian sport. This Piedmontese native emerged from the working class in the 1940s to become the Italian national and three-time world cycling champion, winning two Tours de France and five Giri d'Italia along the way. In his prime, Coppi was locked in a rivalry with Gino Bartali, a Tuscan rider with an equally fanatical following. Their contests inspired a sort of civil war, dividing the loyalties of the Italian nation (as they remain divided today) between north and south. The feud was intensified by the fact that Bartali was a church-going Catholic, while Coppi—an ostensibly "modern man" from the north—forsook his family for a doctor's wife, the fabled Lady in White who bore Coppi's son and was subsequently banished to Argentina. Coppi himself died at age 41 of complications from malaria.
Today the tomb where Coppi is buried, the house in which he was born, and the schoolhouse that he attended as a boy have been made into a museum and reliquary in the village where he lived: Castellania, a 30-mile ride and 1,500-foot climb from our hotel. To find it, we followed signs for the Strade de Fausto e Serse Coppi—the "roads of Fausto" and his brother Serse (who also died young after crashing in a race). When we arrived, we were greeted by Piero Coppi, Fausto's 77-year-old cousin, who escorted us into the reliquary, decorated with Coppi's bikes and jerseys—the rainbow stripes of the world champion, the pink jersey of the Giro d'Italia, the yellow of the Tour de France, and the red-white-and-green vestments of the Italian national champion. Next door was Fausto's tomb, adjoined by a small chapel. It all made one wonder why the word "San" has not been attached to the cyclist's name.
Piero provided a partial answer. "If Fausto had never met the Lady in White," he claimed, "he'd still be alive today." This was an allusion to one of the many speculations about Coppi's fate—that, because of his controversial moral conduct, he was intentionally mistreated for malaria and allowed to die.
Piero rode with us the next day. In his cycling clothes, he resembled the majority of Italian cyclists I've seen: gray-haired with a substantial belly but calves like rocks. He said that, until today, he hadn't ridden his bike in two months. He also said that he no longer drank alcohol—but he had a glass of wine when we ate lunch in a café.

"I thought you didn't drink," Larry said.
"Oh," he answered, "this is just wine."
The salubrity of the grape was demonstrated that night at a trattoria in Asti. To showcase the various styles of Barbere d'Asti, the stubbled young connoisseur-proprietor presented a succession of eight wines: The first couple, a two-year-old Barbera aged in steel and a three-year-old Titon Superiore L'Aronangia that had spent a year in oval wood casks, were accompanied by salume; robiola with hazelnuts; a zucchini flan with tomato and basil; a spinach tart with herbs; a yellow bell pepper stuffed with tuna, capers, parsley, and anchovies; and carne cruda—raw beef chopped by hand, reportedly attained from cattle so pure that its fat content is lower than that of chicken breast.
Next came a plate of mixed primi, including a clove-laced risotto Barbera and agnolotti with rabbit, beef, spinach, and Parmesan. I'd say that the climax was cinghiale—shoulder of wild boar marinated in Barbera with juniper, cinnamon, rosemary, sage, and soffritto (onion, carrots, and celery), which was perfect with an earthy, extracted four-year-old piano alto Barbera—except that it preceded the course the restaurant is most famous for: a cheese cart including Murizano, moldy Gorgonzola, and the prized Castelmagno, only 3,000 wheels of which are made each winter in the mountains near Cuneo.
"We eat it with a chestnut marinated in sugar, water, and grappa," explained our server, who, upon learning that none of us had tasted a degustif called Barolo Chinato Cocchi, insisted that we try that, too. "After three years in barrel as Barolo wine, it's blended with spices and aged another seven years," he said. "It used to be sold in pharmacies and served hot. It's now considered one of the best things to drink with chocolate." Applying endemic Italian drama, he summed up its appeal by proclaiming: "It gives power."

Ciao Tim, Thanks for the nice comments about CycleItalia. In the defense of BICYCLING, the photo of the Amarone likely came from Carlo Zarri's personal cellar, chosen for the interesting look of the bottles more than any claim to represent the wines of Piedmont. As to nebbiolo, the author is likely referring to the fact that so much of the Barolo and Barbaresco wines are exported..they bring too much profit for many Piemontese to simply drink them! He well knows you don't have to go to Valtellina to get good nebbiolo - he enjoyed plenty with us during the tour!

Excellent article -- a well-told, inviting tale of a magical place to ride in Italy. Piemonte's roads, eats and drinks are a cyclist's dreams. I go to Italy a lot on my bike, and I love lots of places in the country - the riding is great; but I continue to go back again and again to Piemonte. Also, I've watched Cycle Italia (the tour company of Larry and Heather in hte story) grow over the years, and the company continues to fine-tune and improve what has always seemed to me to be a brilliant endeavor. (FYI: I have no stake in the matter. Don't know them.) I think they've nailed every level of a cycling and gastronomic tour. NOTE: I'd make two quick comments on the story details. 1. What the heck is with the photo of an old Amarone? I mean, jeez, B-cubed dudes ... Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera in a story about Piedmont. 2. As for nebbiolo only getting a passing grade in Piemonte: while I do agree that Barolo and Barbaresco are the top of the grape-chain, our enophiliac author (that was a joke, no offense intended) should give some Valtellina nebbiolo a gulp or two. Guaranteed return on investment -- or, at least a good, cheaper smile!

In his latest column, Fareed Zakaria makes yet another attempt to deter Israel from attacking Iran through what I call 'deterrence by history'. The trite argument is deceptively simple: history suggests that states which perceive that they have a 'closing window to act' while they still have an advantage are often wrong, and deterrence has worked in the Cold War and even on North Korea and Pakistan thus far. What's to say that the Iranians won't be deterred as well?
Zakaria, and the troves of others who have argued along similar lines, could well be right: a nuclear Iran, even if it comes to pass, may be deterred by the threat of mutually assured destruction – especially with over a hundred nuclear weapons over in Israel. And, ideally, Israel would recognize that while absolute security is impossible to achieve, deterrence is less disastrous than preventive war, and it would therefore not be wise to strike Iran over the next few months.
But what Zakaria et. al seem to forget is that we have to contend with a world as it is rather than the world as it should be. The leaders of nation states do not run their foreign policies based on historical analogies and strict rationality. Even if they do at time, this is filtered through their unique lenses and combined with threat perceptions, domestic politics, their nation's historical experience, various psychological quirks, and so on.
That's precisely why this deterrence by history amounts to little more than intellectual masturbation. Resolving this impasse practically requires understanding the Israeli position, even if one disagrees with it, in order to affect a change in behavior, rather than simply telling them how they should think.
Israeli leaders aren't stupid. They understand that a strike on the main sites of Iran's nuclear program may potentially result in reprisals, regional war, retaliation by Iran or Hezbollah, the resurgence of a regime currently under siege, and a rupturing of relations between it and the West. Some within the Israeli military are also aware of the logistical difficulties such an attack presents, and the limitations of their own capabilities.
But Israel's leaders, particularly its current prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, also believe equally firmly that a nuclear Iran poses the gravest threat to the survival of the Jewish people since Hitler. They live within missile range of a regime that has called for the extinction of their state, and has shown clear signs of aggression – including the Iranian assassination attempt against a Saudi diplomat in Washington and recent bomb attacks and attempts in Thailand, India and Georgia. They feel isolated in a changing Middle East after the Arab Spring, and they are growing less and less confident that US President Barack Obama will attack Iran under any circumstances.
For these reasons and more, the Israelis draw their red line at the Iranian acquisition of a nuclear capacity, not just the actual production of a nuclear weapon. They remain unconvinced the tactics of dissuasion are keeping Iran from marching towards a abomb, and they no not believe that the logic of deterrence would work on a future nuclear Iran.
If the United States and other countries (and commentators) really want to effectively persuade Israel to hold off on striking Iran, I would suggest they spend their time more constructively on doing two things rather than beating deterrence by history to death. First, be clear about the specific types of Iranian actions that violate their red lines, and what they would do if those red lines are crossed (covertly, overtly or otherwise). This would help convince the Israelis to trust that enough is being done to try and change Iranian behavior through non-military means, and that there is consensus on a point (if it exists) that the Iranians cannot cross.
Second, impress upon the Iranians that they need to demonstrate meaningful progress on a negotiated settlement. There are various diplomatic proposals out there, but the goal would essentially be to somehow verifiable guarantee that Iran's nuclear program will remain a civilian one by combining restrictions – like limitations on enrichment or 'fuel swap' proposals – with various carrots like the phased lifting of sanctions. The Iranians have already signalled a willingness to talk, and I don't think Israeli strikes are something they desire either.
These two measures may not work in the end, but they are at least worth trying. And it's far more useful to try to change the behavior of states as they exist today, rather than ignoring their idiosyncracies and hoping they learn from the lessons of yesterday.

Two bills passed by the North Carolina General Assembly this summer could soon become law despite Gov. Pat McCrory's formal objections to them.
The Senate prepared to meet Wednesday morning to consider whether to override McCrory's vetoes. The House canceled both of them Tuesday after less than an hour of debate.
The bills at issue require drug-testing for welfare recipients and create a wider exemption for employers to calculate whether they must access a federal database to determine the legal status of new hires.
The drug-testing bill succeeded in the House although more than a dozen Democrats changed their minds since their votes in July and voted to sustain the veto. House Republicans remained divided over the E-Verify bill.
Overrides require support of at least 60 percent of legislators present.

Beaumont police officers arrested a man in connection with an alleged 'hammer' attack that took place on Tulane Street in north Beaumont Monday morning.
Officers were called to a home on Tulane around 8:30 a.m. on an assault call. Police were told a man came to his ex-girlfriend's house and the two got into an argument with her. Another man tried to assist the woman and was attacked by the man with what witnesses said was a hammer or some type of blunt object.
Beaumont Police Department Spokesperson Rob Flores told 12News officers with a K-9 began searching the area for the attacker. They found the suspect a short time later and made an arrest.
The man, identified by police as Jonathan Bilturner, 22, of Beaumont, was charged with aggravated assault and evading arrest.
The incident remains under investigation.

Germans have to live with Nazi past a bit longer
More than six decades after World War Two and the Holocaust, and just when it is starting to take a more assertive role on the world stage, Germany has been confronted by its Nazi past – again.
Retired U.S. auto worker John Demjanjuk, 89, has been deported to Germany and prosecutors in Munich want to put him on trial for assisting to murder at least 29,000 Jews at the Sobibor extermination camp in 1943. With most Nazi criminals dead, it is likely to be the last big Nazi war crime trial in Germany.
The case raises a number of questions which affect the way Germans look at themselves and relate to the world around them. The deafening silence from politicians, including Chancellor Angela Merkel and Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, says a lot about how intent Germans are on viewing the case as a purely legal matter.
Demjanjuk's health poses one problem. While his family says he is is too frail to stand trial, some Germans argue it will not do their justice system any good to have a sick old man in the dock and that he could even end up winning sympathy – a potentially embarrassing outcome.
