Understanding Levels of Evidence
The concept of levels of evidence is a cornerstone of research literacy and a great starting point for understanding basic principles of how research works.
Adrenal Problems
One of the most common trends to see in clinical medical practice and public health is the cycles of health "buzzwords." These come and go depending upon the current cultural zeitgeist. One year, "parasites" are causing all the issues, and the next year it's "candida."
Holistic Skin Care and Modern Technology
Anti-aging is a concept that we hear in reference to skin rejuvenation and growing older on a daily basis. Aging begins as soon as we are born; therefore "pro-aging" is embracing all stages of life gracefully, with vitality, wisdom, joy, and gratitude as the goal.
Keeping Malpractice Allegations at Bay
It has been suggested that in the litigious environment in which we live, the practice of chiropractic should be defensive and practitioners should constantly be watching their backs. An element of defensive practice is a good idea.
Discovery: Finding Insights and Each Other in Different Disciplines
Recently I've been thinking about all sorts of things which are hidden from our daily direct experience. That general category is what links nearly everything that catches my attention and then demands some kind of investigation.
Romantic Love
Sleepless nights, anxiety, mood swings, euphoric energy bursts, obsessive thinking, and a strange feeling in his chest. That is what Matt was experiencing when he first entered my practice. Rather than being concerned, he was loving every minute of it.
A Different Way of Looking at It
The way you and your chiropractic colleagues access information has changed over the past decade. According to a recent survey conducted by Dynamic Chiropractic, almost half (48 percent) of DCs read online articles on their personal computer or laptop daily.
With Low-Back Pain, Sometimes Little Things Matter
Typical treatments for low back pain involve large muscles like the quadratus lumborum, iliopsoas, and piriformis. However, there are situations when a very small muscle, the multifidus, can play a significant role in the diagnosis and treatment of low back muscular or spinal injury.
Building Bridges with Discipline
As practitioners of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, our role is to educate patients and medical practitioners about the various safety aspects of our medicine. Medical doctors that embrace Chinese medicine want to collaborate and include Chinese herbal medicine in more aspects of clinical care to support their patients.
Distal Style Treatment of Neurogenic Pain
Treat locally or distally? This question has frequented my thoughts for the treatment of pain throughout my acupuncture career. Each style has strengths and weaknesses, thus the versatile practitioner would do well to forgo dogmatic adherence to any one style in deference to the needs of the individual patient.
Finger (Pad) Pointing: Repetitive-Use Injury Waiting to Happen
"My wrist and hand hurt. I spend all day working on computers and then I come home and spend more time on a computer, usually playing video games."
How to Reach Your World With the Chiropractic Message
My latest effort to share chiropractic occurred in mid-May while I was sitting at an introductory parent information night for high schoolers. The IT instructor informed us that each student would be receiving a computer for all their studies.
Constructing Our Reality, Part 2
My last article discussed perception and its relationship to the primary channels. Before we get to the channels most commonly used to treat sensory disturbances, the small intestine and triple heater, we should first talk about the bladder channel.
Hip Flexor Contractures & LBP in Above-the-Knee Amputations
Patients with above-the-knee amputations (AK or AKA) are particularly prone to developing hip flexor contractures. Not to be confused with muscle tightness, contractures are a permanent shortening of tissues which cause deformity or distortion.
The Need for Standards
ISO-TC-249: You may look at these letters and numbers and wonder what they are and what they might mean. They turn into: International Standards Organization- Technical Committee – 249. There is a global organization called The International Organization for Standardization.
Streamline Your Front Desk
Your front office can be your greatest source of efficiency or it can be a constant bottleneck. Increasing the productivity of this area, while not sacrificing the quality of patient interaction, can be a little tricky. However, with some focused effort and intention, your front desk can keep your practice running smoothly.
Living Well: Lessons From Our Oldest Old
Aging is a significant public health problem, important to chiropractors in practice and important to DCs who teach students training to become chiropractors.
A Whole-Body Approach to Chronic Tension Headaches
Nearly every day in our practices, we see patients with chronic headaches that have not responded to traditional treatment. They present in our offices with a feeble hope that "maybe" a chiropractor can help.
Low Fat vs. Low Carb & the Power of Protein
A science-based website recently posted a nice summary of 23 randomized, controlled trials from peer-reviewed journals pitting low-carb diets against low-fat diets.
Billing Timed Services
Q: I do not always use physical medicine services but in my state I do have a scope of practice that allows me to provide many of these services. I am trying to understand what "direct one-on-one patient contact" means in relation to physical medicine services.
Parker University Embraces New Era
Change is in the air at Parker University, which recently announced the selection of both a new president and a new consultant for its seminar program.
News in Brief
NYCC Aggregates Degree Programs in New School; Palmer Chancellor Receives Education Award From ICA; Oklahaven Announces "Have a Heart" Winners.
Transforming Las Vegas
On a warm spring day in Las Vegas, Sonia Kim, clinic front desk staff, is busy preparing for a full day of intern shifts at Wongu Health Center. She greets patients, makes sure documents are properly signed, and lets the interns know that their patients have arrived.
Prostate Cancer Risk
A large study published in January 2016 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that men who are vegans had a 35% lower risk of developing prostate cancer compared to non-vegan men. The study followed more than 26,346 men who are part of the Adventists Health Study-2.
Billing One-on-One, Direct Patient Contact
This is often misunderstood and leads to trepidation when documenting and subsequently billing timed services.

Navigating the Economic Seas
By Angie Patrick
Staying afloat in these tumultuous economic waters is certainly at the forefront of most people's minds these days, both personally and professionally. Every time you turn on the television, listen to the radio, log onto your Internet connection, read a paper or have any contact at all with the outside world, the subject du jour inevitably turns to the economy, and how hard we have all been impacted. We hear the negativity from every facet of our media, and we as a society begin to shrink in fear because of the doomsday soothsayers and their blanketed and often sensationalistic views.
That said, I will not present to you an image of cake and roses either, because we all have felt the effects of a downturned economy in our own way; it is a very scary time for many right now. If the statistics we see generated for public consumption are true, then it is no secret we have a hard row to hoe ahead of us. However, now more than ever, I think it is a great idea for all of us to just take a moment, breathe, consider what we can do to slow the decay privately and professionally, and make a solid plan to get us through to the other side.
To tell you I have the magic panacea that will cure your economic woes would be a bit of a stretch; but what I can give you are some simple, common sense ways to assess where you are currently and provide a few suggestions to strengthen your position to be better prepared to assail those gale-force financial winds when they blow.
First , do not let the news bring your spirits down. Yes, we are having a tough time and there are many reasons to be concerned, but panicking is absolutely not the thing to do. Instead, turn that nervous ulcer-generating energy into something positive by looking for more ways you can conserve and maintain your lifestyle while saving excess expenditures.
On a personal level, you do not have to make major life-altering changes to create a positive outcome. For instance, instead of buying lunch out everyday at the fast-food haunts, opt for a brown bag filled with last night's leftovers, or a yummy sandwich wrap you made yourself. If you consider that buying lunch out every day costs roughly $5, then you just saved $30 a week, or an average of $120 a month. The same can be said for that $6 cup of skinny, white-chocolate mocha latte decaf with extra foam. Your home coffeemaker brews great coffee, and travel mugs are not only easy to use, but good for the environment because they do not clog landfills the way some disposable cups can. By opting for home brew just three days a week, you can save an average of $18 a week, or another $72 a month! For an average family of four, pizza night once a week can cost $25. If you opt to cook instead, you can sock away another $100 a month, not to mention saving the gas it took for the driver to deliver. (I like going green and saving green at the same time!)
If we look at just the three ideas discussed here, we can save an estimated $292 monthly or $3,504 annually. This can go a long way in a savings account dedicated to preparing for a rainy day. This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are other ways to save that do not impact your lifestyle in a huge way. These things work well for your home, as well as for your office or clinic. For instance, you can check with your utility companies for programs such as budget billing. This program takes an average of your billing over the previous 12 months and bills you a fixed dollar amount monthly. This eliminates spikes on your heat in the winter and cooling in the summer. It can also be done with your water in many municipalities; you would just need to check with your local provider. By opting for budget billing, you can better plan for your utility expenditures by knowing it will be the same amount month after month.
Another simple moneysaver for on-call therapists would be to drive the speed limit. I realize this tidbit does not sound like advice but rather more like a law. However, the truth is that many of us drive well over the speed limits, and when we do this we use more fuel. By simply committing to driving the speed limit, you can save as much as 15 percent in fuel costs. This 15 percent is significant with rising fuel costs, and since this is often a business expense, it makes sense both personally and professionally.
Now more than ever, avoid amassing additional debt. It is all too simple to reach for the old reliable charge card when you want a night out and are cash strapped, or you see a bargain you cannot afford to pass up, but doing this can spell real disaster for you down the road. Instead, work to pay off these cards by sending an extra $20-$40 with each payment from the money you have saved by making changes in other parts of your life. You will be amazed how doing this will rapidly reduce your balance and save you more money overall by avoiding finance charges on the paid principal. Make a concerted effort to remain current, or even a little early on all your bills to avoid senseless late fees. Creditors are far more fastidious about charging late fees now more than ever before. This is simply a money-making proposition for them, and these fees add up so quickly. Consider the cost of being late on a credit-card payment just three times in one year and at $29 per occurrence, you have just thrown away almost $90 of your money. We pay interest on the fees if the fee is added to your ending balance, so you will not only lose the $29.99 but you will continue to pay additional interest on it at well. This is an easily solved problem by utilizing online bill payment or automatic debits from your checking account.
By beginning to think now about ways you can better preserve your income, and cut your monthly costs for supply and necessities, you can begin to build a stronger platform from which to navigate these economic upheavals, and keep your ship afloat. Do some research online to look for more ways people have found to trim excess spending. Making the choices to conserve, retain, save and invest are just sound financial practices and will benefit you and your practice over the long term.

Fernando Di Leo
Joe Dallesandro
USDVD release date:
RaroVideo continues to exhume the output of Italy's hard-hearted Fernando Di Leo, who worked in a variety of crime-oriented genres. Madness is an erotic hothouse thriller in a single setting, after an initial sequence in which Joe (imported American Warhol actor-hunk Joe Dallessandro) breaks out of prison, indulges in a bit of gratuitous mayhem, and makes his way to a deserted cottage in a valley where he's buried some loot. Too bad this is the weekend a trio of oversexed vacationers show up: a married couple and the wife's restless, overheated sister (Lorraine De Selle, almost always naked), who's carrying on with the husband. Let the cat and mouse games begin, but who's clawing whom? This film exists to titillate us with De Selle's sensuous poses. If it's too lackadaisically conceived and scripted to be a tense masterpiece (is there too much sex or not enough?), Di Leo's eye for fluid compositions of eye candy within the cramped spaces keeps it attractive and watchable.

Nissan Leaf drives into Europe
The first shipment of Nissan Leaf cars for Europe arrived in Sunderland on Thursday, on board the (energy efficient, of course) City of St. Petersburg carrier.
67 of the first truly practical mass-produced 100 per cent electric vehicles were on board, and are destined for pre-order customers in the UK and Ireland.
"The arrival of the Nissan Leaf, the world's first affordable, all-electric car, in Europe is a landmark day for Nissan and European transport," said Simon Thomas, senior vice president of sales and marketing at Nissan International SA.
"The Nissan Leaf is a genuine alternative to petrol and diesel cars in terms of style, features, safety, performance and handling.
"It is fitting that this first shipment of Nissan Leafs is arriving on our new energy-saving car carrier, the City of St. Petersburg. We look forward to delivering these cars to the very first Nissan Leaf customers, who share our vision for an environmentally sustainable future for road transport."
Pre-orders for the Leaf are up to 27,000 worldwide and from 2013, units will actually be assembled for the UK in Sunderland, and a comprehensive charging network is also currently being constructed in the UK - there should be almost 9,000 charge points by 2013.
You've probably heard of the Leaf before as it's been a long time coming. If not, let us fill you in: It's is a 5-door mid-sized car that, from the outside at least, doesn't look to dissimilar to the other Japanese cars that are slowly beginning to dominate the UK's roads (save for a distinct lack of an exhaust pipe of course).
What sets the Leaf apart though, is the fact that it is a zero-emission vehicle, running entirely on NEC produced, Lithium-ion batteries (48 of them). So that's good news for Mother Nature, and it's also good for your wallet as well. Even taking into account the UK's heavy reliance, still, on fossil fuels, the Leaf is already 50 per cent cleaner and, on average, will save you around £720 per year compared to a 1.5l diesel car (based on 15,000 miles of driving), or £1110 per year against a 2l petrol one.
There's also some pretty cool kit on board too, with Nissan's Carwings console and an iPhone app as well.
Pocket-lint went out to Lisbon to test the Nissan Leaf back in October, and we loved it. Be sure to check out our hands on photo story.
The Nissan Leaf is available to order now, priced at at around £23,990 after government incentives, and there will be a personal contract purchase option. It's available in five colours in Europe - blue metallic and pearl, white pearl, silver metallic, black solid and red pearl and you'll get a 3-year warranty on all of your standard parts, and a 5-year one on all the electronic gubbins - including the battery.

Washington-based startup Innovega is coming up with a natural eyewear-based platform - called iOptik - that promises to transform how we share social media.
The two-part system depends on special contact lenses that work as a filter to let the human eye focus simultaneously on things very near and far - using rings that route light in different ways into the retina.
This works along with a pair of special glasses fitted with tiny projectors that transmit data forward onto the eyeglass lenses, said a press release issued by Innovega.
"Whatever runs on your smartphone would run on your eyewear," said Stephen Willey, Innovega CEO.
The iOptik platform provides wearers a `virtual canvas` on which any media can be viewed or application run.
The glasses are slim and fitted with little more than the micro-projectors.
"Our optics deliver games that are truly `immersive`, movies that mimic IMAX performance, a multi-tasking dashboard that incorporates five or more typical screens - all while simultaneously providing the wearer a safe and clear view of their environment," added Willey.
"It also supports most any screen or projection design as evidenced by demonstrations at our booth of fully transparent, panoramic, HD, micro-projector eyewear, as well as a glance-able, megapixel, flat-panel solution," the release added.

With the stagnation that has plagued music for the last several years, the world has been in sonic deprivation. That void has now been filled with the brutally beautiful sounds of Mary Magdalan. This Hollywood band has burst on the scene at god speed. The sound is the brainchild of Gzus H and Mary Magdalan. What started out as a chance meeting led to one of the most intense and honest portrayals of art to hit the music scene in decades. The lyrics are an introspective into the mind of an addict. Whether the addiction is drugs or dissolution with reality, Mary Magdalan speaks the language of America's disenfranchised youth with candid and sincere honesty.
The music is a deep perspective on the road with a child of addiction. The loss of family, the mistrust of addicts, the inner turmoil and loneliness that haunts so many children across the globe is living testament to the sound of Mary Magdalan. Record producer Shawn Rivera put it best upon first listen when he said, 'Mary Magdalan is the voice of the lost and enraged...

Further attacks on environmentalists likely
Filipino green group issues stark warning after murder of broadcaster
January 25, 2011
A green group is warning "environmental defenders" face further attacks following the killing on Monday of Gerardo Ortega, a Filipino radio commentator known for supporting environment issues. "Dr. Ortega worked tirelessly to educate and convince people to oppose and not allow mining in his province," said Clemente Bautista, coordinator of the Kalikasan-People's Network for the Environment. He said other anti-mining activists have "suffered the same fate.... They were killed because of their outspoken defense of the environment and communities." Police say a lone gunman shot and killed Ortega, a veterinarian, while he was out shopping after his daily morning broadcast in the southern Philippine province of Palawan. Environmental and media groups condemned the killing. "The death of Dr. Ortega is a serious loss to the movement dedicated to environmental protection," Bautista said. Environmentalists "continue to be targeted, hunted and killed," he added. According to Bautista, Ortega was the first prominent environmentalist killed this year and the 37th since 2001. He said 28 of them were anti-mining activists. "We believe Dr. Ortega was killed because of his active involvement in preserving the biodiversity and environment of Palawan against large-scale and foreign mining," said Bautista.

Financial Ratios
There is a lot to be said for valuing a company, it is no easy task. If you have yet to discover this goldmine, the satisfaction one gets from tearing apart a companies financial statements and analyzing it on a whole different level is great - especially if you make or save yourself money for your efforts.
Earnings Per Share
Before you can understand many of these ratios it is important to learn what earnings per share (EPS) is. EPS is basically the profit that a company has made over the last year divided by how many shares are on the market. It gets a little more complicated because you don't include preferred shares, also the number of shares could change throughout the year. But don't worry this number will be given to you on any financial website.
Price To Earnings Ratio
The price/earnings ratio (P/E) is the best known of the investment valuation indicators. The P/E ratio has its imperfections, but it is nevertheless the most widely reported and used valuation by investment professionals and the investing public. A high P/E ratio means investors are paying more for today's earnings in anticipation of future earnings growth.
The basic formula for calculating the P/E ratio is fairly standard. There is never a problem with the numerator - an investor can obtain a current closing stock price from various sources, and they'll all generate the same dollar figure, which, of course, is a per-share number.
However, there are a number of variations in the numbers used for the EPS figure in the denominator. The most commonly used EPS dollar figures include the following:
Basic earnings per share - based on the past 12 months
Estimated basic earnings per share - based on a forward 12-month projection
The basic formula for calculating the P/E ratio is fairly standard. There is never a problem with the numerator - an investor can obtain a current closing stock price from various sources, and they'll all generate the same dollar figure, which, of course, is a per-share number.
However, there are a number of variations in the numbers used for the EPS figure in the denominator. The most commonly used EPS dollar figures include the following:
Basic earnings per share - based on the past 12 months
Estimated basic earnings per share - based on a forward 12-month projection
Price to Sales Ratio
A stock's price/sales ratio (P/S ratio) is another stock valuation indicator similar to the P/E ratio. The P/S ratio measures the price of a company's stock against its annual sales, instead of earnings. Like the P/E ratio, the P/S reflects how many times investors are paying for every dollar of a company's sales. In this example the price of a share is divided by the sales ($3,286) which is adjusted for average share outstanding throughout the year (3,286/247.1). This results in paying 5.1 dollars for every dollar of sales.
Debt To Equity Ratio
The debt-equity ratio is a leverage ratio that compares a company's total liabilities to its total shareholders' equity. This is a measurement of how much suppliers, lenders, creditors and obligors have committed to the company versus what the shareholders have committed. A lower number means that a company is using less leverage and has a stronger equity position. This ratio is not a pure measurement of a company's debt because it includes operational liabilities in total liabilities, nevertheless, this easy-to-calculate ratio provides a general indication of a company's equity-liability relationship.
Dividend Yield
A stock's dividend yield is expressed as an annual percentage and is calculated as the company's annual cash dividend per share divided by the current price of the stock. The dividend yield is found in the stock quotes of dividend-paying companies. Investors should note that stock quotes record the per share dollar amount of a company's latest quarterly declared dividend. In this example the $1 dividend and $67.44 share price creates a 1.48% yield.
Price To Book Ratio
This Ratio compares a stock's per-share price (market value) to its book value (shareholders' equity). The price-to-book value ratio, expressed as a multiple (i.e. how many times a company's stock is trading per share compared to the company's book value per share), is an indication of how much shareholders are paying for the net assets of a company. "price-to-book", provides investors a way to compare the market value, or what they are paying for each share, to a conservative measure of the value of the firm. In this example the share price is divided by the book value (adjusted into a per share number).
Payout Ratio
This ratio tells you how much profit goes out in dividends. This ratio identifies the percentage of earnings (net income) per common share allocated to paying cash dividends to shareholders. The dividend payout ratio is an indicator of how well earnings support the dividend payment. Dividends are paid at the discretion of management, if the percentage is too high (over about 75%) then the dividend could be cut. If the result is low then the dividend payment could continue into the future.
Current Ratio
The current ratio is a popular financial ratio used to test a company's liquidity (also referred to as its current or working capital position) by deriving the proportion of current assets available to cover current liabilities. The concept behind this ratio is to ascertain whether a company's short-term assets (cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables and inventory) are readily available to pay off its short-term liabilities (notes payable, current portion of term debt, payables, accrued expenses and taxes). In theory, the higher the current ratio, the better. In this example current assets are valued well over 2 times the current liabilities.

A new agency, represented by some of the most well-known cultural personalities in France, has been formed to guide the development of the planned Louvre Abu Dhabi, to be built in the Cultural District of Saadiyat Island.
The French Museums agency will operate in collaboration with the Tourism Development and Investment Company (TDIC), which is behind the transformation of Saadiyat Island. It will be chaired by French financier and member of the country's Academie Des Beaux Arts, Marc Ladreit de Lacharriere, publisher of the periodical Revue des Deux Mondes, with Bruno Maquart, the former Executive Director of Centre Pompidou acting as Executive Director.
"The French Museums agency comprises some of the finest minds in the French cultural arena," said Sheikh Sultan Bin Tahnoun Al Nahyan, Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority (ADTA) and TDIC Chairman. "Working closely with TDIC, the French Museums agency members will be responsible for most aspects of planning of the Louvre Abu Dhabi, including the scientific and cultural programme, advising on the architecture, design and acquisitions, handling loans, temporary exhibitions, management support, visitor development and services."
He added: "Our long-term ambition is to see UAE nationals fully trained in these specialist fields and we intend to activate a series of art and cultural education initiatives to ignite within young Emiratis a determination to take up vocations in these sectors. ... A dedicated training action plan will be rolled out within 18 months with training sessions to be held in France and Abu Dhabi."
Agency stakeholders comprise representatives of the Louvre, Musique du Quai Branly, Centre Pompidou, Musee d'Orsay, Bibliothèque Nationale de France (BNF), Musee Guimet, Domaine National de Versailles, Domaine national de Chambord, Reunion de musiques nationaux, Ecole du Louvre and the capital projects organisation EP de maitrise d'ouvrage des travaux culturels.
The agency includes Henri Loyrette, Chairman and Director of the Louvre and former director of the Musee d'Orsay, who will chair its Scientific Committee, Laurence des Cars, the former curator of Musee d'Orsay, who will act as Scientific Director, and Sylvie Aubenas, Curator of the BNF's Engraving and Photography Department, who will also serve on the Scientific Committee. French architect Jean Nouvel designed the concept of Louvre Abu Dhabi.

Va. Republican Lt. Governor Candidate Said Birth Defects Were Caused By Sin
"It is the principle of sin, rebellion against God and His truth which has brought about birth defects and other destructive natural occurrences."
The Republican nominee for lieutenant governor of Virginia, E. W. Jackson, wrote in his 2008 book Ten Commandments to an Extraordinary Life that birth defects were caused because of sin. He wrote the book when he was serving as a minister.
The passage reads:
Keep in mind that the whole cosmos has been made imperfect — wounded — by sin. It is the principle of sin, rebellion against God and His truth which has brought about birth defects and other destructive natural occurrences. Leaving aside that for a moment, recent discoveries about the genetic code of each human being are a fulfillment of scripture. Your genetic code is the handwriting of God, written before you or the world existed. Our genetic blueprint is proof of the existence of the Living God and His infinite intelligence, purpose and design. Sadly, many will ignore the deeper spiritual truth which underlies the advance of this scientific knowledge.
Jackson told reporters last month, responding to past controversial comments on gays, "I say the things that I say because I'm a Christian, not because I hate anybody, but because I have religious values that matter to me." Jackson made the comment to reporters at a campaign stop in Fredericksburg, according to the Washington Post.
- ISIS has claimed responsibility for a bombing that killed at least 80 people in Afghanistan Saturday.
- Hillary Clinton made her debut with VP pick Tim Kaine, who dipped into Spanish and spoke on support for immigration reform and gun control.
- The gunman who killed at least 10 people at a Munich, Germany mall was an 18-year-old "obsessed" with mass shootings, police said.

Forgive me, but I'm so tired of hearing about people's "conscience."
Aside from "Town Meeting Representative," has Jill Stein ever served public office?
She seems like a nice enough person, but in what way is she even remotely qualified to be President of the United States? Granted, she's FAR more qualified than Trump, but that's not saying much.
I find the "voting my conscience" argument strange. You're essentially saying Hillary Clinton is no better than Trump because of a few decisions she's made (instead of looking at the entire body of her record and advocacy).
Furthermore, you KNOW that any vote Hillary doesn't receive gives Trump an advantage. What does your conscience say about that? Ironically, to do something that objectively only helps the other side effectively betrays the very thing you claim to stand for.
But you mention your "conscience" as if that's supposed to automatically make you an honorable person.
Of course it's your right and your opinion, but let's stop acting like it's some noble thing.

Super Rugby
Ask anyone at the Highlanders and they'll say tonight's game against an NZ Barbarians side is about a lot more than just an opposed training run.
The Highlanders make a rare visit to Invercargill to take on the invitation team with their thoughts firmly focused on a three-game stretch which will make or break their 2014 campaign.
Sitting fifth in a desperately tight race for the playoffs, the Highlanders take on the defending champion Chiefs in Dunedin on June 27, followed by the Waratahs and Crusaders away - both of whom are sitting above them on the table.
"We've done a bit of work last week and this week and we are treating this game like a trial," Highlanders coach Jamie Joseph said.
"Some of our guys need to perform or run the risk of not being selected the following week so [tonight's] really important for us. Some places are taken by our key players, but some places are up for grabs."
While the Highlanders were happy to still be in contention for a Super Rugby playoff spot heading into the June test window, Joseph knows the team needs to arrest what was really a slide into the three-week break, after bonus point losses to the Crusaders and Reds.
"The fact is we've lost two of our last three games and it's just not good enough," he said.
"They've been some spirited performances, but on the ledger we've still come second. Had we won those tight games we'd probably be through and we've put ourselves under a lot of pressure because of that."
While the Highlanders will welcome back their All Black contingent of Malakai Fekitoa and Ben and Aaron Smith, and players like Shane Christie, Richard Buckman, Kane Hames, Joe Wheeler and Lima Sopoaga have cemented their places in the team, there is more competition around hooker, the loose forward mix and second-five.
There will also be interest in the performance of former Blue Mountain College head boy Gavin Stark, a New Zealand secondary schools representative last year.
A top schoolboy sprinter, Stark has impressed Joseph with his speed and gets his opportunity after Patrick Osborne was called into the All Black camp.
The loss of Kurt Baker (torn hamstring) and Craig Millar (dislocated shoulder) had put pressure on the Highlanders' depth, following season-ending injuries to Brad Thorn and Buxton Popoali'i.
Props Scott Manson and JP Koen will get an early chance to put their hands up for next year's Highlanders squad, while the likes of Ross Geldenhuys, Michael Fatialofa and Willis Halaholo will have similar ambitions.
The game is also the first chance for the new Stags coaching bench of Brad Mooar, Clarke Dermody and Hoani Macdonald to run a game at Rugby Park.
HIGHLANDERS: Props - Kane Hames, Chris King, Ma'afu Fia, Scott Manson; hookers - Liam Coltman, Ged Robinson; locks - Jarrad Hoeata, Josh Bekhuis, Tom Franklin, Joe Wheeler; loose forwards - Lee Allan, TJ Ioane, John Hardie, Elliot Dixon; halfback - Frae Wilson, Scott Eade; first five-eighths - Lima Sopoaga, Hayden Parker; midfield/outside backs - Jason Emery, Shaun Treeby, Phil Burleigh, Winston Stanley, Jayden Spence, Richard Buckman, Gavin Stark, Trent Renata.
BARBARIANS: Props - Alex Hodgman, JP Keon, Morgan Mitchell, Ross Geldenhuys; hookers - Brayden Mitchell, David Hall; locks - Alex Ainley, Michael Fatialofa, You Youngman, Craig Smith; loose forwards - Gareth Evans, John Dampney, Bill Fukofuka; halfback - Toby Morland, Nick Ealey; first five-eighths - Willie Ripia and Broc Hooper,; midfield/outside backs - Rico Gear, Tei Walden, Willis Halahalo, Yasutaka Sasakura, Keanu Kahukura, Jamie Verran, Bryan Milne.

Man killed in A1(M) crash
A man from Leeds has been killed and two other men are seriously hurt after a crash on the A1(M) in South Yorkshire.
A man from Leeds has been killed and two other men are seriously hurt after a crash on the A1(M) in South Yorkshire.
Police say the man who was killed in a crash on the A1(M) near Doncaster this morning was 47 and came from Leeds. The lorry he was driving collided with another lorry that was involved in the multi-vehicle pile-up close to Marr, Doncaster.
The first crash between a silver car and a lorry happened just after 6:10am and left part of the carriageway blocked. The driver of another HGV pulled over to help those involved in the first crash and his vehicle was then hit by the white lorry driven by the man who died.
Two passengers from the dead man's vehicle are being treated for life-threatening injuries. They are a 58 year old man from Redditch and a 35 year old man from Bedford. Police have arrested the 26 year old driver of the silver car from Doncaster on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

Boxer Amir Khan assault allegations dropped
Allegations of assault made against the former world champion boxer Amir Khan have been withdrawn, police have confirmed.
Allegations of assault made against the former world champion boxer Amir Khan have been withdrawn, police have confirmed.
Claims former world champion boxer Amir Khan assaulted two youths in his hometown of Bolton last week have been dropped, Greater Manchester Police have said.
The 27-year-old two-time world champion and Olympic silver medallist was arrested in the early hours of Friday morning over two allegations of common assault.
He had been released on bail pending further enquiries but today police confirmed no further action will be taken after the allegations were withdrawn.
A spokesman for Mr Khan described the incident as "a misunderstanding between Amir Khan and two other youths".
He added: "On Monday July 7, Amir was notified by the police that the allegations against him had been withdrawn and the matter would not be pursued any further."
On Friday, police arrested the former two-time champion and light welterweight and questioned him for several hours
He was released on bail the same day.

A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics (IME) has launched the Silicon Micro Cooler (SMC) consortium to develop integrated thermal management solutions for semiconductor chips with extreme high heat dissipation and local hot spots applications.
1. Singapore, 18 March 2014 – A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics (IME) has launched the Silicon Micro Cooler (SMC) consortium to develop integrated thermal management solutions for semiconductor chips with extreme high heat dissipation and local hot spots applications. Members of the consortium include Honeywell Aerospace, Element Six Technologies and an information and telecommunications company.
2. Thermal management is an important technology area that impacts the performance and reliability of high power high performance applications, such as datacenter and networking systems. As the electronics industry continues to trend towards smaller form factor, greater functionality and faster processing speed, the high power dissipation across a smaller chip area can result in hot spots. These are usually high heat flux concentrated in small areas, which could lead to extremely high junction temperature and drastic breakdown of integrated circuits devices.
3. The SMC consortium builds on the R&D capabilities of IME in the field of thermal and fluidics design, deep trench etching, wafer level bonding and system level characterization competency. It aims to develop technologies for thermal solutions required for high heat flux application, develop heat sink design with advanced thermal materials such as synthetic diamond heat spreader, silicon-based micro fabrication, wafer bonding technologies, and demonstrate integrated hybrid silicon micro coolers that are capable of heat dissipation for processors, RF amplifiers and laser diodes applications.
4. "It is critical for thermal management solutions to keep pace with the increasing requirements of high performance semiconductor modules. Through a collaborative platform where we integrate R&D knowledge with the expertise of stakeholders in the value chain, we believe that the consortium will be successful in the development of novel cooling techniques that will enable the continued advancement of these high performance semiconductor modules," commented Professor Dim-Lee Kwong, Executive Director of A*STAR IME.
5. "Synthetic diamond has the highest room-temperature thermal conductivity of any commercially available material, and will play an integral role in addressing the semiconductor industry's ever increasing thermal management challenge. Key to maximizing synthetic diamond's effectiveness is the method of its integration into device packages. The SMC consortium will provide a critical platform for Element Six to work with industry partners, to optimize diamond package integration and drive future benefits of this technology for the industry as a whole," said Bruce Bolliger, Senior Director of Element Six Technologies.
6. "Participating in A*STAR IME's SMC Consortium is a further step in proactively contributing to the aerospace industry with unique and innovative projects and solutions. We look forward to a successful collaboration with our IME consortium partners in Singapore and are very confident that the collaboration will contribute to our mutual success," commented Dr. Soeren Wiener, Director AME Engineering Technology Programs of Honeywell Aerospace.

Transparent electronics devices are present in today's thin film displays, solar cells, and touchscreens. The future will bring flexible versions of such devices. Their production requires printable materials that are transparent and remain highly conductive even when deformed. Researchers at INM – Leibniz Institute for New Materials have combined a new self-assembling nano ink with an imprint process to create flexible conductive grids with a resolution below one micrometer.
To print the grids, an ink of gold nanowires is applied to a substrate. A structured stamp is pressed on the substrate and forces the ink into a pattern. "The...
