Memento mori ring, 1850-1930
'Memento mori' translates from Latin as 'Remember you must die'. This metal memento mori ring is in the form of two arched skeletons, with a large skull wedged between their two heads. Such rings were reminders of death. They prompted people about the shortness of life and the inevitability of death. A skull was typically used to represent death from the 1500s onwards. It gradually replaced the common older image of a skeleton leading a living person off to their death.

At WXN, we inspire smart women to lead, and over the past 10 years, we have celebrated the accomplishments of 728 remarkable female leaders, inducting 93 of these women into our Hall of Fame. These women, in turn, have inspired us by reminding us that nothing is impossible.
The theme for this year's Top 100 Awards is 'What Glass Ceiling?'. We ask this question with the full knowledge that there are still obstacles women face that men don't, but at the same time, we think it's important to show just how far we've come. The 100 women honoured at this year's Gala are proof positive that change is happening. As trailblazers, they have moved to the top levels of their respective fields and overcame obstacles to get to where they are now: among Canada's Most Powerful Women.
Hear inspirational stories of how these women overcame obstacles, accelerated business growth and reached their goals. Take away strategies for your own career, leave with a new perspective and take your leadership to the next level. The 'Glass Ceiling', for these women, has become obsolete and we must recognize that a good leader is quite simply, a good leader.
NOMINATIONS March 7, 2014
Nominations for the 2014 Top 100 Awards are now open!

With papers securely clipped to easels for kids and toddlers, it's easier for little ones to explore different mediums including paints, crayons, chalk and more. No need to worry about clothes getting dirty, we also have appropriately-sized smocks which protect clothes while young artists paint.
Painting on regular preschool tables can stain the work surface and dominate a main workspace. When you have some appropriately sized easels in a daycare or preschool classroom, kids can feel free to paint without worrying about the mess. Many of our models have a number of painting stations in a single unit so a few children can enjoy them at the same time.
Especially when the creative artists are young, it is important to make sure that materials are placed in a position where they are accessible and won't spill easily. Many of our easels have paint trays just below the work surface which hold containers of paint securely in place as little ones construct their masterpieces. Clips hold drawing paper in place so there is no need to worry about it moving or sliding around. For convenient storage, we also have easels for kids with extra shelves below so you can store paints, brushes, crayons, chalk and other materials.
Paint isn't the only medium that children will enjoy creating original work with. You can enable little ones to choose what they want to work with by ordering childrens easels which can be used with various materials. Chalkboard easels are great to have in an early-childhood setting because chalk is easy to wash out of clothing and doesn't make a mess in the room. Students can feel free to go over to the chalk station and make creations on their own, and teachers don't have to worry about potential spills and stains.
If there is not enough room in the classroom for permanent childrens easels, or a daycare center is trying to conserve funds, mobile kids art easels are a good option. They can be shared among a number of classrooms so little ones will have the opportunity to paint, but a school doesn't have to provide separate easels for each room. This is a great option for those who are trying to conserve space. Rather than having to bring the whole class to a separate art room when there is a project that requires working with paints, the art supplies can simply be rolled into the classroom and rolled back out when the project is complete.
The six-student paint center from Childbrite lets many kids enjoy working with paints. Students can work next to their friends while still enjoying a personal space where no one will interfere with their projects. It includes individual paint trays at each station so young artists can keep their own sets of colors handy. This user-friendly model doubles as a paint drying rack. The middle section has clips and lines where paintings can hang. The clear plastic painting stations enable children to admire their work and that of their classmates as it dries.
When little ones are using paints, it is only natural for educators and parents to be concerned about stains and messes. The ideal is to provide maximum creative license while still ensuring that there is not too much cleanup for adults to do when projects have been completed. With washable smocks from Children's Factory, young artists can create to their hearts' content and caregivers can rest assured that clothing is protected.
Any space where projects are being worked on requires an appropriate place to put them afterward. We have art drying racks in both wood and metal so kids don't have to wait for other students' work to dry before they can use easels. It is always great to have a place nearby to move completed works, especially with little ones running around. You don't want wet projects to get in the way of other activities, and children can get quite upset when their work gets ruined. Racks keep paintings in a safe place until they are ready to be taken home.
Art drying racks come in a selection of styles, so you can choose the configuration that best fits your space. We have hanging, tabletop and freestanding models, so there is a great solution for a classroom of any size. Mobile units are perfect for early-childhood settings because they enable paintings to be taken out of the room without the risk of damage. This saves classroom space and prevents little ones from tampering with each other's work.
When you need preschool furniture that supports toddler art, Hertz Furniture has it all. Our easels, smocks and art drying racks are designed to give young learners the optimal hands-on creative experiences. If you need help choosing the best models for your art learning center, or you can figure out the optimal arrangement, contact the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice from the experts.

I bought one and loved it immediately. I just bought 3 more to have as backups or gifts. There are two things that kept it from having 5 stars. The main problem for me is that I use non Apple earbuds and the audio jack does not fit into the receptor hole without slightly pushing up the plastic overlay. I use them frequently for music and audio books and the plastic broke right above the hole. My second one works better but, not perfectly. Another reason I bought more was that the white plastic gets dirty and is hard to clean so I bought the black and use it everyday. The white is great looking so I occasionally pop it on when I'm going out. Overall , and regardless of price, I think this is a great case. I love the look, the feel, and it protects well. I dropped it on a tile floor and it survived. I highly recommend it and have had many people inquire about where I bought it.
Protects iPhone 5 without adding bulk. Phone still fits easily in pocket and feels comfortable in hand. I am very pleased with purchase.
Its a good case for $5. I've been using it for a few weeks now. I'm happy with it.
Works just fine, offers enough protection, and the rubber piece prevents it from sliding around a dashboard or glass table.
Liked it so much ordered a second one. Tried on many cases for the new phone, this case is the best by far. It's not bulky or heavy. Very stylish on and non obtrusive to the actual usage of the phone unlike most cases. It's not as hard core as Ballistics or Otter cases, but I wasn't looking for that type bulkiness. If you're looking for a slim, great looking and functioning case that would protect your phone and keep it from slipping off surfaces I would definitely recommend this one! Plus in comparison to everything else you can't beat the price.
I think the product is accurate with the value compared with the quality. The only bad thing I can say is I received the wrong colored case. I clearly ordered the Black/ meshed and received the Red/Black meshed case. I am contemplating returning the case.
The case arrived and I discovered it was dual layered with the rubber mesh overlay. I love this case!!!
It look sleek on my phone and for the price, it's better than expected.
So well worth the price, feels good in my hand and adds no weight to my phone. Protects the phone from scratches and dust. Perfect for my needs.
I love this cover. In all of the iPhones I've owned, I never once purchased an expensive cover for any of them. I always protected the phones with simple rubber cases and the phones always remained scratch and sent free. This cover definitely feels stronger than my previous rubber cases; maybe it's due to a bit stronger rubber. It feels secure in my hand, fits tightly around the phone, and I love that it has the hole in the back that shows the Apple logo. Very pleased and item shipped and was delivered very quickly!

My tomatoes not happy with chilly July
My, oh my, we had a chilly July. We only went above our average high of 85 degrees to hit a sweltering 86, according to Weather.com once and 3 times if you use AccuWeather. Out of the 31 days in July, only 4-6 were above the average low of 63 degrees, depending on which source you use. That is pretty chilly.
The chart on AccuWeather.com was rather interesting for Milwaukee. It shows the highs, lows, records, etc. all in easy to compare columns. Neither Weather.com nor AccuWeather show the high of 94 degrees on July 27 this year as JSOnline reported though. But we really don't need the charts to tell us this July has been cool, our gardens and number of blankets on the bed tell us that.
Milwaukee's all time high was 105 in 1934. In fact, the 1930s look like a hot decade. The next record high was 103 in 1995. I knew that without looking at the chart; that was the summer we remodeled and literally had half our house open to the elements. Yup, that means living with NO air conditioning and lots of mosquitoes. Believe it or not, you do get used to the heat. The mercury topped 105 at our house.
Most of us have not had our air conditioning on for much this summer, which is a plus when it comes time to pay our WE Energies bills. But the tomato plants in my garden are not so happy with all these good sleeping, cool nights!
Today I did find one tiny tomato that had fallen off the plant and had started turning a dull orange. It is a new variety to me called a berry tomato and is shaped much like a small strawberry. That berry tomato was my first inkling of anything ripening in my garden.
Any of you gardeners out there have tomatoes ripening? Do let me know if yours are maturing. I would like to think someone is enjoying a tomato mayonnaise sandwich out there. After all, it is summer.
In Obama's own words, "I don't think we're ...able to eliminate employer coverage immediately..."
To us the President says, "You can keep your doctor, you can keep your plan. Nobody is talking about taking that away from you."
But check out this video piece I found on Drudge today: UNCOVERED VIDEO: OBAMA EXPLANAINS HOW HIS HEALTH CARE PLAN WILL 'ELIMINATE' PRIVATE INSURANCE I only just got my sound back on my computer so I could watch it. But in case you don't want to watch the clip, here are the quotes (as close as I could transcribe) from the video clips:
It opens with President Obama to the AMA in June of 2009: "The public option is not your enemy, it is your friend, I believe."
"Let me also address a illegitimate concern that is being put forward, by those who are claiming that a public option is somehow a Trojan horse for a single payer system."
Followed by Obama to the SEIU Health Care Forum in March of 2007: "My commitment is to make sure we got universal health care for all Americans by the end of my first term as president."
"I would hope that we set up a system that allows those who can't go through their employer to access a federal system or a state pool of some sort."
"But I don't think we are going to be able to eliminate employer coverage immediately, there's going to be potentially some transition process. I can envision a decade out, or 15 years out, or 20 years out."
Then it shows Obama addressing the AFL-CIO Civil, Human and Women's Rights Conference in 2003: "I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care plan. A
single payer, health care plan, Universal health care plan, that is what I would like to see."
July 27, 2009: Democrat Representative Barney Frank then expresses his support for single payer systems: "I think if we get a good public option it could lead to single payer and that is the best way to reach single payer."
May of 2009: Democrat Representative Jan Schakowsky then talks about how an insurance guy sitting next to her argued against the public insurance option, saying that it would put private insurance out of business because it wouldn't allow private insurance to compete. She then says to the crowd she was addressing, "He was right, the man was right!"*
Lastly, a clip of the President saying, "Nobody is talking about some government takeover of health care."

Voice your opinion on RAIL & Master Plan at National Night Out tonight
Tonight is the National Night Out at Brookfield's Safety Building and Civic Plaza, 5:30 - 8:30 pm. Not only are there some fun family activities offered, but there is also an opportunity to voice your opinion on Brookfield's future initiatives.
You can also fill out a comment form at the Brookfield Library. Deadline for submissions is August 10th. The 2035 Comprehensive Plan, will be adopted by the Common Council at year's end.
Some of the items on the 2035 Vision Implementation Comment Form (feedback form) are rather benign. Others are hot button issues. Here are some of mine in the order they appear on side 2. My position is in red.:
- Establish a new Targeted Investment Area along the 124th Street corridor from Burleigh Road to North Avenue. (I am against if it involves a tax district and usurps property owners rights.)
- Take a supportive approach to historic preservation including educational and persuasive (not coercive) efforts, and at all times supporting the rights of property owners. (I am for this. Saving the Siepmann home is an example of a supportive role.)
- Support the completion of an Environmental Impact Study (EIS), through an open, public process, to study the feasibility, locational options, impacts, and design options of a future interchange from Interstate 94 between the two that now exist. (I am against a Calhoun Rd. exit.)
- Support future high speed intercity rail service connecting Minneapolis - Madison - Milwaukee - Chicago and beyond, provided that a station in Brookfield is maintained and funded in state and federal plans. (Note: This is not the same as commuter or light rail.) (I am AGAINST rail in any form because it requires taxpayer subsidies and is NOT practical for most travelers.)
You may not wish to partake of the Night Out festivities, but do fill out the survey and contact yourAldermen
Sometimes you just need a good laugh, watch this
Take a break from growing deficits and the prospect of single payer Obamacare and watch Extreme Shepherding. It is truly remarkable when you consider how dumb sheep are.
Obama's request to turn in citizens' emails/postings eerily reminiscent of WW2 era
While studying the WW2 era in our homeschool history class, I was surprised to learn how many Americans living on the east and west coasts were instructed to keep their eyes open for any enemy activity. In fact, South Carolina's Coast Guard Beach Patrol trained for possible German landings. The threat was real.
Since September 11th, Americans are called upon to be observant and report suspicious behavior or abandoned parcels/backpacks. These examples of vigilance are understandable.
But I cannot remember any president in my lifetime ever asking that people's emails or web postings* be reported if they are against their agenda. In this case, against Obama's ideal of Health Care reform. That seems awfully Big Brother-ish.
From the White House website via Redstate: (Their emphasis)
"There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can't keep track of all of them here at the White House, we're asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to email@example.com."
President Obama's request to turn in citizens' "fishy" information seems eerily reminiscent of Germany's 1930s and WW2 years to me. Remember how Hitler encouraged the Hitler Youth to turn in anyone, including their parents, who did not support Hitler's agenda? From Military History Online:(My emphasis)
"An ominous new development within the HJ [Hitlerjugend or Hitler Youth] was the appearance of HJ-Streifendienst (Patrol Force) units functioning as internal political police, maintaining order at meetings, ferreting out disloyal members, and denouncing anyone who criticized Hitler or Nazism including, in a few cases, their own parents."
"Many of these same HJ became so infatuated by their Nazi education and work ethic, that they became hostile towards anyone who did not share the Nazi view of the world. Often, this included members of their own families. ...In one of the great ironies of history, parents suddenly became afraid of their own children, especially if their sons were HJ members. The adults found themselves living in fear that their son or daughter could report anti-Nazi talk or behavior to the Gestapo, whereby they would end up in a re-education or concentration camp."
As for President Obama's unprecedented request to turn in those who don't share his vision, most of us wondered, is this reporting legal? Doesn't this violate the Constitution's 1st amendment? Redstate thinks so:
"Given the near certainty that no one will be stripping from emails the names of the people forwarding on the information, the White House is most likely engaged in unlawful activity."
"According to 5 U.S.C. § 552a, United States agencies, including the Executive Office of the President shall, 'maintain no record describing how any individual exercises rights guaranteed by the First Amendment unless expressly authorized by statute or by the individual about whom the record is maintained or unless pertinent to and within the scope of an authorized law enforcement activity.'"

Brookfield's 2035 Vision Materials display no longer at library
Imagine my surprise. The 2035 Vision Implementation Comment Form I filled out at the library over a week ago stated in bold black letters: The deadline for providing comments is Monday, August 10th.
The library had a display with the various areas of "Vision" for Brookfield's future illustrated on large poster boards. There were also comment forms and a wooden box to collect the forms on a table front and center as you walked into the library.
Late Saturday afternoon, I stopped in for some music CDs and was going to look at the 2035 Vision renderings and information again, but it all had vanished!
I asked at the circulation desk what happened to the display and was informed that "they" took it away on Friday (Aug. 7).
But, if you still wanted to throw in your 2 cents regarding the 2035 Vision Implementation Comment Form, as seen at the library and Brookfield Square, know that the library comment box is no longer there to receive it. I would guess City Hall would still be accepting the forms? (They were closed at the time I discovered the collection box and display were gone.) You might want to call City Hall to verify they will accept your comment form: 262-782-9650. The form is available online for you to print out. Their fax number is 262-796-6671.
According to the City's website, there will still be 4 Open Houses in September "to get direct input from the public into the City's vision for the future." The notice talks about sending in your comment form to the City's planning consultant next month, so I don't know what the August 10th deadline was all about.
Please know that the input they are looking for is all in the positive. You are to select 5 things that are important to you. There is no way that I could see to object to any of the specific initiatives except to not check that vision.

Taking some time off while Congress is in recess
My computer is acting up a bit; I'm having great difficulty copying and pasting. That might not seem so bad to you but it makes blogging a rather frustrating experience for me. So I am thinking, if our Representatives are in recess, maybe I will take it a bit easy too for the remainder of August? (Hopefully I will get to the bottom of my copy/paste issue in the next week or so.)
I can probably manage a recipe or two or something else on the lighter side, just not much with links and quoted text for a while.
In honor of State Fair, try a cream puff recipe!
Cream puffs usually top the list of must have food treats at the State Fair. In case you didn't get your fill, why not make your own? They are not difficult to make, plus you can make them yourself for a fracton of the State Fair price
Cream puffs use the same pate a choux dough as éclairs, just the shape and filling is different. In fact, the shells can be used for savory dishes like creamy chicken stew or some sort of creamed seafood dish too.Whatever filling you choose, the dough is made from very basic ingredients.
Pond full of fun
Whenever I drive by Kinsey Park pond, at the end of my street, my heart is warmed when I see kids playing at the water's edge. Whether they are fishing or frogging or just fooling around, the pond is a source of good old clean fun for neighborhood youngsters. (OK, good old muddy fun.)
A summer delight: Chicken Salad
This chicken salad is a favorite at our house; it's one even my menfolk like. The fruit and touch of curry make it a little unusual and the abundance of chicken makes it hearty enough for a summer supper.

Cardiac Catheterization
Test Overview
Cardiac catheterization is a test to check your heart. This test can include a coronary angiogram, which checks the coronary arteries .
A cardiac catheterization can check blood flow in the coronary arteries, check blood flow and blood pressure in the chambers of the heart , find out how well the heart valves work, and check for defects in the way the wall of the heart moves. In children, this test is used to check for heart problems that have been present since birth ( congenital heart defect ).
A coronary angiogram is used to find out if you have disease in your coronary arteries ( atherosclerosis ). If you have atherosclerosis, this test can pinpoint the size and location of fat and calcium deposits ( plaque ) that are narrowing your coronary arteries.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is similar to coronary angiogram, but it is used to open up a narrowed coronary artery with special tools. The two common types of PCI are:
- Angioplasty with or without coronary stents.
- Atherectomy.
Results from a coronary angiogram help determine whether treatment with medicines, bypass surgery , or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), such as angioplasty , may be effective.
For help deciding about having this test for coronary artery disease, see Heart Disease: Should I Have an Angiogram?
Other tests can be done during cardiac catheterization to find heart problems. An X-ray test called a ventriculogram measures how well blood flows through the left side of your heart. The test looks at the movements of the wall of the left ventricle and the heart valves.
Health Tools
Health Tools help you make wise health decisions or take action to improve your health.
|Decision Points focus on key medical care decisions that are important to many health problems.
|Heart Disease: Should I Have an Angiogram?
Why It Is Done
Cardiac catheterization and coronary artery disease
Cardiac catheterization is done to:
- Check blood flow and blood pressure in the chambers of the heart.
- Check blood flow in the coronary arteries and, if you have coronary artery disease (CAD), determine whether surgery or another type of procedure, such as angioplasty with stenting, is needed to open the blocked blood vessels.
Other reasons for having a cardiac catheterization
Cardiac catheterization is also done to:
- Check the pumping action of the heart.
- Find out if a congenital heart defect is present and how severe it is. Cardiac catheterization sometimes can also be used to help correct the defect.
- Check blood flow through the heart after surgery.
- Find out how well the heart valves work.
How To Prepare
Tell your doctor if you:
- Are allergic to the iodine dye used in the contrast material or any other substance that contains iodine.
- Are allergic to any substances that might be used during the procedure, such as latex or talc.
- Are allergic to any medicines.
- Take any medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbal remedies. Some of these can increase your risk of bleeding. Some medicines can cause other problems during the test. Your doctor will tell you which medicines to stop before your test and which medicines you can take safely. Medicines to mention include:
- Blood-thinning medicine, such as warfarin, clopidogrel (Plavix), or aspirin.
- Erection-enhancing medicines, such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), or vardenafil (Levitra).
- Are or might be pregnant.
- Have asthma or have ever had a serious allergic reaction ( anaphylaxis ) from any substance, such as the venom from a bee sting.
- Have any bleeding problems.
- Have kidney disease . The contrast material used during cardiac catheterization can cause kidney damage in people who have poor kidney function. If you have a history of kidney problems, blood tests ( creatinine , blood urea nitrogen ) may be done before and after the test to confirm that your kidneys are functioning properly.
Talk to your doctor about any concerns you have regarding the need for the test, its risks, how it will be done, or what the results will mean. To help you understand the importance of this test, fill out the medical test information form (What is a PDF document?) .
Arrange for someone to take you home after the test. You may not have to stay in the hospital overnight.
Do not eat or drink (except for a small amount of water) for 6 to 12 hours before the test.
Take your medicines as directed by your doctor. You might stop taking certain medicines before your test and start taking them again after your test.
Before the test, remove any necklaces, bracelets, rings, or other jewelry. You should also remove nail polish from your fingernails and toenails.
Be sure to empty your bladder completely just before the test.
How It Is Done
This test is performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory ("cath lab") by a cardiologist .
Before the test
You will be asked to lie on a flat table under a large X-ray machine. Several small metal leads (electrodes) will be attached to your legs and arms with a special paste or gel. These leads are connected to an electrocardiogram (EKG, ECG) machine that continuously records the electrical activity of your heart during the test.
A device called a pulse oximeter that measures oxygen levels in your blood and monitors your pulse may be clipped to your finger.
An intravenous ( IV ) needle will be inserted into a vein in one of your arms to give you fluids or medicine during the procedure. You will receive a medicine to help you relax ( sedative ) through the IV line. You may be awake during the procedure. But even if you are awake, the sedative may make you so sleepy that you may not remember much about the procedure.
During the test
The thin flexible tube (cardiac catheter) is usually inserted in your groin (femoral artery). Other sites that may be used are the crease of your elbow (brachial artery), your wrist (radial artery), or your neck. The catheter insertion area will be shaved and cleansed with an antiseptic solution before the test. Sterile towels will be draped over you, except for the area over the catheter insertion site.
A local anesthetic will be injected into the skin at the insertion site. A blood vessel is punctured by a special needle or exposed by making a small cut in the skin so that the catheter can be passed into the blood vessel . The catheter is slowly advanced through the blood vessel into your body. The catheter tip is moved into various positions in the heart's vessels and chambers while the doctor watches its progress on the imaging screen. Pressures within the heart chambers can be measured. Blood and heart tissue samples may also be removed through the catheter, if necessary.
You may be asked to hold your breath or move your head slightly to provide clear views of the heart and its blood vessels.
A small amount of dye (contrast material) will be injected through the catheter into your heart chamber or one of your coronary arteries. Pictures show the arteries as the dye moves through them. You may be asked to cough to help clear the contrast material out of your heart or breathe deeply and hold your breath.
It is important to lie as still as possible, since motion can make the images blurry or hard to interpret. A health professional will help you stay comfortable and will help you resist the urge to move around. Be careful not to touch the sheets or reach for your groin area because you may contaminate the sterile areas and increase the risk of infection.
Your doctor may allow you to watch the video monitor so you can see the images of your heart and coronary arteries.
You may be given nitroglycerin to help open up your coronary arteries. Or you may be given an injection of a medicine that causes the coronary arteries to narrow. You may be asked to breathe into a special mouthpiece to help measure the flow of oxygen in your circulating blood.
After the test
The catheter will be removed from the insertion site. To prevent bleeding, the site may need to be closed using pressure, stitches, or a special seal. For example, if the catheter was inserted in your wrist or groin, firm pressure will be applied to the area for about 10 minutes to stop the bleeding. Then a pressure dressing will be placed over the area. If the catheter was inserted in your elbow, a few stitches will be used to close the wound.
The test takes about 30 minutes. But you need time to get ready for it and time to recover. It can take up to 6 hours total. The length of the test is not an indication of the seriousness of your condition. After the test, you will be taken to an observation room and a health professional will periodically monitor your heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature and check for signs of bleeding at the insertion site. The pulse, color, and temperature of the arm or leg in which the catheter was inserted will also be checked periodically.
If the catheter was inserted in your leg, you may have to lie in bed with your leg extended for several hours (such as 4 to 12 hours), depending on the exact procedure used and your medical condition. After that, you can move about freely, but you should avoid strenuous activity for at least 1 to 2 days. A child who has had cardiac catheterization may need to be held by a parent for several hours after the test to prevent the child from moving his or her leg.
You should drink plenty of liquids for several hours after the test. This will prevent dehydration and help flush the contrast material out of your body.
Depending on the results of the test, you may be sent home either after a short observation period (such as 6 hours) or on the next day. If any stitches were placed in your arm, they may be removed in 5 to 7 days.
If you are breast-feeding, use formula for 1 to 2 days after the test.
How It Feels
You will feel a sharp sting when the local anesthetic is injected to numb your skin over the catheter insertion site. When the catheter is inserted, you may feel a brief, sharp pain. The movement of the catheter through your blood vessel may cause a feeling of pressure, but it is not usually considered painful. People commonly experience skipped heartbeats for a few seconds when the catheter touches the walls of the heart.
If a dye (contrast material) is injected, you may feel warm and flushed and have a metallic taste in your mouth. Some people feel sick to their stomach or have a headache. You also may feel nauseous or lightheaded, have chest pain, irregular heartbeats, an urge to cough, mild itching, or hives from the contrast material. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your doctor how you are feeling.
The temperature in the catheterization lab is kept cool so that the equipment does not overheat. For many people, the hardest part of the test is having to lie still for an hour or more on the hard table. You may feel some stiffness or cramping.
Call your doctor immediately if you have chest pain, extreme shortness of breath, dizziness, trouble speaking or swallowing, or paralysis in any part of your body during or after the test.
You may experience some soreness and bruising at the insertion site. This is temporary and should disappear within 2 weeks. It is normal for the site to feel tender for about a week. Call your doctor immediately if:
- Your arm or leg becomes pale, cold, painful, or numb.
- Redness, swelling, or discharge from the catheter insertion site develops.
- You have a fever.
Complications related to the catheter include:
- Pain, swelling, and tenderness at the catheter insertion site.
- Irritation of the vein by the catheter (superficial thrombophlebitis). This can usually be treated with warm compresses.
- Bleeding at the catheter site.
- A bruise where the catheter was inserted. This usually goes away in a few days.
- Trouble urinating after the procedure.
Serious complications are rare, but they can be life-threatening. Serious complications are more likely to occur in people who are critically ill or elderly. These complications may include:
- Sudden closure of the coronary artery.
- Small tear in the inner lining of the artery.
- Allergic reaction to the contrast material, with hives and itching and, rarely, shortness of breath, fever, and shock . These allergic reactions can usually be controlled with medicines.
- Kidney damage. In rare cases, the contrast material can damage the kidneys, possibly causing kidney failure . People with diabetes and kidney disease are at greatest risk for kidney damage.
- Heart attack or stroke.
- Need for more procedures or surgery for complications.
Radiation risk. There is always a slight risk of damage to cells or tissues from being exposed to any radiation, including the low levels of X-ray used for this test. But the risk of damage from the X-rays is usually very low compared with the potential benefits of the test.
Cardiac catheterization is a test to check your heart and coronary arteries .
Test results will be reviewed by a cardiologist and will be available after the procedure. Your doctor will be able to talk to you about some of the results immediately after the test.
Results will include whether: 1
- Coronary arteries are normal or have narrowing or blockage.
- The heart's pumping action ( ejection fraction ) and pressures inside the heart chambers and blood vessels are normal.
- The heart valves are working normally.
Many conditions can affect the results of a cardiac catheterization. Your doctor will discuss any significant abnormal results with you in relation to your symptoms and past health.
What Affects the Test
Reasons you may not be able to have the test or why the results may not be helpful include:
- Extreme anxiety that causes high blood pressure and irregular heartbeats.
- Kidney or liver failure.
- Inability to follow directions during the procedure.
What To Think About
- This test usually is not done on people who have had severe allergic reactions to contrast material, poorly controlled heart failure, life-threatening heart rhythm problems, or advanced kidney disease.
- Cardiac catheterization is not usually done during pregnancy because the radiation could damage the developing fetus . But in a life-threatening emergency, this procedure may be necessary to help save a pregnant woman's life. In such cases, the fetus is protected as much as possible from radiation exposure with a lead apron.

Carolina Herrera
OTHER COLLECTIONS BY: Carolina Herrera
2011 September 13
Spring 2012: Carolina Herrera, Rachel Roy, Thom Browne, Alexandre Plokhov
FirstView View Gallery
(NEW YORK) Carolina Herrera
The grande dame of pretty sophistication stuck to her glamorous guns, as always, with a healthy treatment of patterns, plus retro-tinged B&W looks and lush grass-green and Dijon saturated gowns. A dropped-waist silhouette in glimmering gunmetal exemplified the slightly casual-leaning angle of some of Herrera's latest: chunky silver gems cradling the collarbone and lining the armholes, progressively widening stripes of silver beading on the bodice, ending with a wispy flourish of lightly patterned, slim-cut skirt, reminiscent of newspaper in tissue paper form. Woven paneling resembled a tactile basket on a couple of lemony numbers, while bold pewter brushstrokes of liquid metal lit up another elegant frock. Sheer overlays in crimson, wrought with beaded black vertical dashes of pattern, were lively while still adhering to Herrera's enduring exercises in restrain, and replicated in cool palettes of icy blue and chocolate on a clean white foundation, cut asymmetrically at the neck. Wide trousers were polished at the striped waistband and dressed down where they tapered off with a cuff, cut just shy of the delicate strappy metallic heels grounding such looks. Classic Herrera means instant classics from the moment the runway lights dim (and instant queues of pre-orders, natch).
Rachel Roy
Roy went for romantic minimalism with her Spring 2012 collection. The romantic and femme are familiar facets of Roy's visual geography, but the more masculine elements feel a bit fresh for the designer, via loosely flowing suiting and a couple of pajama shirts. A peachy column-styled floor length sheath, spiked with a high slit, petite mandarin collar and wide coordinating cuff, was sophisticated precisely for its simplicity. Inspired by the series of suits featured in the 1992 film The Lover (which Roy played on loop, on mute, as she worked) the collection is all about opposites. "It's the idea of opposites that I think of constantly. It's something that interests and attracts me," explains Roy. To that effect, Roy juxtaposed the potentially harsh mesh, in the form of blazers and shorts, with soft organza linings. For the trouser-averse, cowl-necked dresses in tan-belted teal and lemon sorbet with a big floral plume across the chest were on offer. The balance of opposites continues into the accessories domain of shoes and handbags, the latter of which were executed in architectural, structured silhouettes. "I just really wanted effortless, modern and refined moments," said Roy—and that's exactly what happened.
Thom Browne
The New York City Library's Edna Barnes Salomon Room transported showgoers into a retro 1920s salon, buzzing with the sounds of "You're the Top," for Thom Browne's Spring 2012 presentation. Models posed pretty in life-size birdcages and mingled dinner-party style in a bevy of layered looks avec fit 'n' flare skirts donning sailboats or clamshell embroidery, trademark TB blazers (sometimes stacked two deep), suspended garter skirts, and elongated sleeveless vests. Cocoon coats, exaggerated sleeves, and a hearty dose of schoolgirl plaid continued from seasons past while striped culottes with crop top jackets and asymmetrical fringe cocktail dresses lent an au courant (and grown-up) selection for the loyal Thom Browne clientele. A sequined mermaid maxi et blazer combo stole the show. Ditto for the Wes Anderson-esque pleated polo gown that sent editrixes into a tizzy.
Alexandre Plokhov
Since Cloak menswear closed its doors in 2006, Alexandre Plokhov has been keeping a relatively low profile designing under the command of Donatella Versace for Versace menswear. Last Fall, the New York-based designer debuted his namesake menswear collection with nods of approval from eds and buyers alike. This season Plokhov returns to the scene with a second menswear collection and his first full-fledged womenswear line, a Barneys exclusive. What was on his mind while making the military-inspired lineup? "Apart from sleep?" joked Plokhov. "I wanted to connect my two collections with a story: a recruit setting off to parts unknown and saying goodbye to his girlfriend." Plokhov wove the tale in updated soldier suiting for his departing gent. Think ankle trousers, casual uniform-y blazers, and cadet caps in fatigue, khaki, black, grey, and white. The designer took it a step further for womenswear with expert tailoring on skintight leather cargos teamed with a shrunken moto blazer, an asymmetrical white cocktail dress with one easy breezy flutter sleeve, and a silk georgette shirtdress in cobalt blue or persimmon. "I wanted the finest fabrics—soft to the touch—for my womenswear. I didn't want to just make menswear for women—that's boring," said Plokhov at his Barneys presentation. Boring? Not a chance, said Barneys. The luxury department store will house the designer's latest wonders on the newly-renovated fifth floor.

Clawback Claims Mount Against Ex-Dewey Partners
|0 Comments
The advisers retained to liquidate the remains of Dewey & LeBoeuf have not forgotten the several dozen former Dewey partners who chose not to sign on to a $71 million settlement with the bankruptcy estate in 2012. It's just taking awhile to get around to suing all of them.
During a hearing Wednesday in U.S. bankruptcy court in lower Manhattan, lawyers representing Dewey's liquidation trust said they have so far sued 13 of the 45 former partners they plan to pursue claims against and intend to sue about 20 more by the end of February.
That update came as the Dewey advisers sought the court's permission for additional time to respond to proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 case.
The 13 suits filed by the estate to date, which are nearly identical in substance, demand that the defendants return amounts ranging from $395,000 to $12.9 million that they received between Jan. 1, 2009, and Dewey's bankruptcy filing in May 2012 in the form of either compensation or tax and capital payments made by the firm on their behalf.
For one of those targeted in the first wave of suits, the strain created by the firm's collapse contributed to financial woes that recently led him to file for personal bankruptcy protection.
On Dec. 31, banking finance specialist Gregory Owens filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition in New York. In the filing, Owens lists $1.1 million in assets—the bulk of that sum held in his retirement plan—against $2.9 million in liabilities. The filing notes that "Debtor was a service-partner at Dewey Leboeuf. Virtually all of his debts result from creditor claims against the firm."
Those debts include the $1.05 million at issue in the clawback suit filed against him in the Dewey bankruptcy Dec. 5, another $204,926 owed to Barclays Bank in connection with a loan he took out to cover his capital contribution to the firm, and $1.63 million that Dewey's former New York landlord seeks from him in litigation it has initiated against hundreds of former firm partners.
Reached Wednesday, Owens declined to comment on his bankruptcy filing.
Owens did confirm that when Dewey failed, he followed mergers and acquisitions heavyweight Morton Pierce to White & Case along with six other partners. A longtime member of Pierce's deal team, Owens typically provides banking finance support on M&A transactions, among other work. A 1982 graduate of Vanderbilt University Law School, he joined Dewey predecessor firm Dewey Ballantine in 1986 from Reid & Priest, left in 1994 to go in-house for a few years and then returned to Dewey in 1998. He is now a nonequity partner at White & Case.
The circumstances sketched out in his Chapter 7 filing suggest that Owens leads a more modest life than what is associated with the typical Am Law 100 partner. A former tenant of New York's Stuyvesant Town complex—a development on Manhattan's East Side that was built to provide post–World War II housing for the city's emerging middle class in the 1940s—he now lives in an apartment building on the northern edge of Harlem.
Owens states in his Chapter 7 filing that despite receiving $31,250 in gross pay each month from White & Case, he takes home just $5,022 after deductions for retirement, insurance, estimated taxes and more than $10,000 in "domestic support." He estimates his monthly expenses at $5,074, roughly half of which go to rent and utilities.
Owens' personal possessions are minimal, according to the filing. They include: household furnishings and electronics worth $5,800, a penny and postcard collection valued at $1,500, and a broken Concord watch worth $300. (He also notes that he is in line for a potential payout of up to $30,000 in connection with the settlement of class action litigation between Stuyvesant Town residents and the complex's management.)
Owens is likely not the only former Dewey partner faced with dire financial consequences as a result of the clawback litigation. And as The Am Law Daily has previously reported, he is also not alone in being asked to repay a capital contribution loan taken out to fulfill his obligations as a partner to a firm that no longer exists.
Other partners being sued by the Dewey estate may have more of a financial cushion to fall back on. Among those potentially in that category: ex-Dewey rainmaker John Altorelli, whom the estate sued last week in search of $12.9 million he collected over the course of Dewey's final three-and-a-half years.
Soon after leaving Dewey for DLA Piper in April 2010, Altorelli spoke at length with The Am Law Daily about the reasons for his departure and the predicted fate of his former firm. The corporate and finance lawyer noted at the time that he had voluntarily gone without pay as the firm struggled, and that he never worried about being paid because "I produce every year." Altorelli did not return a call seeking comment Wednesday.
On a separate front, Brown Rudnick partner Howard Steel, who represents the Dewey trust, told the court during Wednesday's hearing that the estate has resolved 97 percent of the 1,322 proofs of claim filed in the bankruptcy seeking more than $1.2 billion.
Dewey's lawyers have said they will pursue another large pot of money by filing suits against firms that hired Dewey partners as the firm imploded. Based on the so-called unfinished business doctrine, such suits are often brought by bankruptcy estates hoping to reclaim a portion of the profits those lawyers earn after switching firms. Pending appeals in the Coudert Brothers and Thelen bankruptcies, both of which will be argued before the New York State Court of Appeals later this year, are likely to have an impact on the Dewey case.
Christopher Murray, a Diamond McCarthy partner who represents the Dewey liquidation trust, said in court Wednesday that in light of those appeals, "I do not have a prediction for you now" on when the estate will file any unfinished business suits. In the meantime, according to Murray, the firms that took on former Dewey partners have been subpoenaed for information related to those hires and have generally been cooperative about complying.
The next hearing in the Dewey bankruptcy is scheduled for Feb. 19.

RocketBallz Stage 2 Tour TP Driver
Our Longest just got Longer-ier.
The RBZ Stage 2 driver gives you a big, confidence-building clubface in a head engineered to promote fast swing speed. That's a killer combo for players who like to get after it with a big swing to launch the ball long. TaylorMade engineers accomplished yet another remarkable feat in metalwood mastery by increasing the size of the clubface (4100 square millimeters) while also improving the aerodynamic properties of the clubhead..
In addition, our innovative Thick-thin Crown technology saves substantial weight that's redistributed to move the CG lower and more forward, which promotes a high launch angle, low spin-rate and faster ball speed, all of which promote maximum distance. Add the lightweight 50-gram Fujikura RocketFuel shaft and the ability to adjust the loft and face angle and you've got a driver worthy of the description "RocketBallz-ier."
The crown features a unique black, orange and gray decal designed to make it easier to frame the ball opposite the center of the clubface, and easier to detect exactly how the clubhead is aimed to give you confidence that the face is aligned exactly the way you want it before you start your takeaway.
- Faster and longer than the original RocketBallz driver.
- Expansive 4,100 square-millimeter clubface gives the golfer substantially more face area.
- Inverted Cone Technology milled into the inner side of the larger clubface expands the portion of the face that delivers high ball speed.
- Improved aerodynamics reduces drag over the head to promote faster clubhead speed.
- Thick-Thin crown provides lower and more-forward CG location promoting faster ball speed, high launch and low spin.
- TaylorMade Loft-Sleeve technology offers 7 standard and 5 upright loft options to add ±1.5° to each of the available standard lofts: 9.5 (which can be adjusted up to 11° or down to 8°) 10.5 (which can be adjusted up to 12° or down to 9°) and HL 13 (which can be adjusted up to 14.5° or down to 11.5°).
- Black clubface, non-glare white crown and new crown decal all promote easy alignment.
- Shaft: Matrix 7Q3

Just bought this driver on July 16,2013. Tried it on the launch monitor the numbers were better than I have seen with most drivers. I create a lot of spin depending on the head and shaft combo. This driver gave me a very good spin rate. The launch was good, carry distance was good and overall distance was good.
Took it to the course and it performed just as it did on the launch monitor. High penetrating launch low spin great carry and good roll once the ball was on the ground. Very easy to hit straight. My avg head speed on that day was 109 mph with a ball speed of 160 mph. The launch was around 11 degrees. The carry was around 274, and had a few drives over 300 yds. I should have tried this driver sooner. I had the R11 and the R11S and the R1 but for me I got the best results with the Tour TP Stage 2 driver 9 Degree head and Matrix 7Q3 shaft. Great combo for me. Now I just need the 3 wood and a dozen Lethal golf balls and I am set.

I really wanted to like the R1, but I just never warmed up to it on the course. I'm hitting my RBZ Stage 2 Tour 3 Wood so well I decided to try to the RBZ Stage 2 Tour TP driver. On the launch monitor at the store I was hitting this much longer and straighter than the R1. On the course it is more of the same, very long and accurate. The Matrix 7Q3 seems to be a perfect match for my swing providing a great flight and low spin. While the R1 may be getting all of the headlines, don't overlook this one!
