WEEKEND: Port Angeles rock, gem show appeals to treasure hunter in us all
Cindy Kochanek, organizer of the fourth annual Rock, Gem and Jewelry Show sponsored by the Port Angeles Parks and Recreation Department this weekend, shows off the 60-pound agate she found in Oregon.
Half of a giant agate — found by Cindy Kochanek and cut and polished by her husband, Mark — will be on display at this weekend's rock show in Port Angeles.

The fourth annual Rock, Gem and Jewelry Show, sponsored by the city Parks and Recreation Department, will display and sell some of the Earth's most colorful bounty in the Vern Burton Community Center, 308 E. Fourth St., from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.
The emphasis of the two-day free show which opened Saturday is on do-it-yourself rock-hounding.
"We try to get families and kids interested in going out and going rock-hounding," said Cindy Kochanek, herself a rock hound who has volunteered for the last four years to organize the show.
The show, which charges vendors but not those who attend, benefits youth and family programs of the city Parks and Recreation Department, where Kochanek's day job is as city administrative assistant and cemetery manager.
To especially involve children, free rocks, necklaces and bracelets will be given to youngsters by volunteers from the city for as long as supplies last.
"It's so fun to see the little kids' faces," Kochanek said.
"They just light up."
Many of the 41 vendors at the show will give out free rocks and bring items for children, Kochanek said.
John Corinish, a Port Angeles mineral expert, will brings geodes to buy and crack open to see what mysteries lie within.
Fluorite crystals, garnets and pyrite crystals are among the treasures that can be found inside geodes, said Kochanek, who is looking forward to opening more of them this weekend.
"It's like Christmas," she said.
Ethiopian opal necklace
An Ethiopian opal necklace appraised at $350 and donated by Port Angeles jeweler Michael Smith will be given away as a free door prize in a raffle just before the show closes Sunday.
Everyone who attends the show over the two days will get a ticket, and the winner doesn't have to be present at the drawing.
Mike Pimentel of Eclipse Minerals will display a 212-pound piece of natural splash copper.
"If you splash water on the sidewalk, it forms a splatter. That happens naturally in the earth," Kochanek said.
Kochanek and her husband, Mark, will exhibit half of a 60-pound agate piece that she discovered in a rock-hounding trip in Oregon and that he cut and polished.
Reluctant to share directions to their "secret place" for agates and other finds, Kochanek did describe the journey to get there, saying vegetation is so thick "you cannot literally see a foot in front of your face" and that travelers can sink up to their waists in mud.
Takes dedication
Only the most dedicated rock hounds would return to such an area. The Kochaneks have been there several times.
They got started 15 years ago when the couple, now married 36 years, decided to celebrate their wedding anniversary by digging sapphires in Montana.
Now, the two travel through Washington, Oregon, Idaho and other states seeking rock treasures.
"It's just a hobby gone bad," she laughed.
Kochanek said local beach-combing can turn up fossils and agates but that the best rock-hounding tends to be elsewhere in the state or in Oregon and Idaho.
At this weekend's show, "we have vendors who do the same thing that we do: dig their own rocks and do something with them," Kochanek said.
"Most of people in the show actually go out and get their own rocks."
Although there won't be demonstrations of lapidary arts, vendors will offer a lot of information, Kochanek said.
"They like to engage people in coming to the show and getting them involved," she said.
"You can learn how to go looking for agates, jasper, petrified wood, thunder eggs, fossils, crystals, obsidian and much more," she said.
"You can bring the whole family and learn more about rock-hounding and how to find your own secret treasure."

06:30 27 April 2012
Archant copyright 2011
Wedding bells will be in the air this weekend at a special show offering couples lots of inspiration for planning their perfect day.
The Eastern Daily Press Wedding Shows have, over the years, developed a reputation for bringing together the cream of Norfolk's wedding scene under one roof, and the latest show will be on Sunday at Dunston Hall, near Norwich.
More than 80 exhibitors will be at the free event, offering brides and grooms the chance to find out about every aspect of planning their wedding.
Bridalwear experts will be on hand to help brides pick their perfect wedding dress and discuss options for bridesmaids, while transport specialists will have their vehicles on display to show couples how they can travel in style on their wedding day.
The vast array of other exhibitors will include florists, wedding planners, venue hosts, jewellers, photographers, beauty experts, toastmasters and caterers.
There will also be people to help you choose your wedding cake, marquee, music, menswear, honeymoon, entertainers, stationery and much more.
Steve Maddams, from the EDP Wedding Show team, said: "After creating the EDP Wedding Show in 2007, this is our 11th Wedding Show at Dunston Hall and we believe the shows are going from strength to strength.
"This is one of the biggest one-day wedding shows in East Anglia and we have over 80 of the best local wedding businesses attending to help you plan your special day."
The Eastern Daily Press Wedding Show is at Dunston Hall, on the A140 near Norwich, on Sunday from 11am until 4pm.
Admission is free.
On the day people will also be able to enter a competition to win dinner, bed and breakfast for two at Dunston Hall.

Some simple steps might cut local SIDS rate
Published: Thursday, October 24, 2002 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 at 11:00 p.m.
Many parents of newborn babies, particularly new parents, know the fear all too well. They routinely check on their babies when they're sleeping, holding a mirror beneath their tiny noses to be sure they're still breathing.
For those whose babies' breaths always fog the mirrors, the horror of discovering your baby is not breathing is unimaginable.
Sudden infant death syndrome, also called crib death, occurs with no warning signs and for no apparent reason. It knows no ethnic, racial or economic boundaries, but statistics show African-American babies are twice as likely to die from it.
Approximately 60 to 80 infants die each year in Louisiana from SIDS. The region that includes Terrebonne and Lafourche parishes recorded the second-highest number of SIDS deaths in the state for a three-year period. From 1998-2000, 1.5 infants died of SIDS for every 1,000 live births. In 2000, seven babies died of SIDS in our region, which also includes St. Mary, St. James, St. John and Assumption parishes.
That's seven too many babies dying. Babies are not supposed to die. Their innocent little souls are symbols of hope and promise. They shouldn't bring grief and despair to families.
While research has not been able to find a cause, and therefore a cure, for SIDS, it has identified risk factors and behavioral recommendations:
Get prenatal care to assure good nutrition and reduce risk of premature birth, a major risk factor for SIDS.
Do not smoke or use drugs (like cocaine or heroin) during pregnancy.
Place babies to sleep on their backs. Since 1992, when the American Academy of Pediatrics first started urging parents to place babies on their backs to sleep, the SIDS rate has decreased 50 percent in the United States.
Do not place soft, fluffy bedding or stuffed animals in the crib. Use a firm mattress in the crib.
Do not overdress babies for bedtime to avoid overheating.
Wait at least one year between the birth of a child and the next pregnancy to reduce SIDS risk.
Avoid crowds with the baby and wash hands before handling the baby to ward off respiratory and gastrointestinal infections.
Most of these recommendations are rather simple things that can help lower the risk of SIDS. Employ as many of them as possible to reduce your baby's risk of sudden, inexplicable death. Although no one is to blame for a SIDS death, that won't stop the horrible feelings from surfacing if your baby succumbs to it.

Follow a descending trail that leads to a deep, ancient gorge carved by prehistoric glacial meltwater to falls that plunge 45 feet into a basin. What makes Royalston Falls a special place? We think it's the remote location of the waterfalls - well worth the 0.8-mile descent to the edge a half-hidden ravine! Carved over the ages by Falls Brook, the boisterous cascade plunges 45 feet into an icy pool, sending up a misty spray through the thick forest hugging the gorge.

Patricia Jantien Ko launched the "Department of Conservation,
New Zealand: decline permission to Milford Dart Ltd to
construct the Dart Passage Tunnel" petition on Monday, which
said if Doc granted the concession to the company, Tourism
New Zealand's slogan of "100% Pure" would become "a worldwide
"The proposed plan violates the National Park Policy of New
Zealand saying that no new roads will be built in National
Parks," the summary on the petition page said.
"The World Heritage status of this region will be in
jeopardy, as a commercial construction will violate the
preservation and protection of special places for the benefit
of all.
"It will result in the loss of many nature-caring, discerning
international travellers and New Zealanders normally visiting
this region," it said.
Mrs Ko said on Tuesday the idea stemmed from a conversation
she had had with Doc hearings panel chairman Paul Green and
assistant Chris Visser, during the submissions hearing in
Queenstown last month.
When asked what she believed tourists wanted, she thought it
best if Doc actually asked tourists.
"I thought it would be really good for Doc to find out what
potential visitors to this region want. It's about creating a
tourist facility, but no-one has actually talked to the
Further, there were many domestic tourists who did not get an
opportunity to speak to their submissions, without travelling
to Queenstown or Te Anau to do so and, in some cases, the
"time-costly" nature of the submission process put people
off, she said.
"I wanted to give them the opportunity to have a say."
The petition had been supported by many overseas residents,
including people from Spain, Australia, the United States,
Canada, the United Kingdom, Poland and Holland.
The petition will stay open for about a week, at which point
Mrs Ko hopes to take it to the Doc decision maker, likely to
be deputy director Sue Tucker, for consideration.
Doc media adviser Reuben Williams, of Wellington, said on
Tuesday that because the formal submission process had
closed, the petition would not be counted as submissions.
However, "it doesn't mean it can't be taken into account",
particularly because of it being a petition.
MDL will present its response to the hearings panel tomorrow
in Queenstown, following two weeks of hearings split between
Queenstown and Te Anau last month.

|Known for
Carl von Voit (31 October 1831 – 31 January 1908) was a German physiologist and dietitian.
Voit was born in Amberg. From 1848 to 1854 he studied medicine in Munich and Würzburg; habilitation in 1857 at the University of Munich, professor of physiology since 1860, as well as curator of the physiological collection.
Carl von Voit is considered by many to be the "father" of modern dietetics. As a chemist and physiologist, he found that the amount of nitrogen in excreted urea is a measure for the protein turnover. Using a respiration chamber, he could characterize the significance of individual nutrients, known as Voit'sches Kostmaß. He was also a successful teacher, attracting international students to the University of Munich and thus significantly influencing the US nutritionist, among others. One of his best known German pupils was Max Rubner.
Carl von Voit died in Munich.

Martin Jol is eager to tie up a deal for the talented Eredevise duo ahead of next season's Premier League campaign, amid doubts over Clint Dempsey's future
Herenveen pair Luciano Narsingh and Oussama Assaidi could be on their way to Fulham this summer after the two wingers travelled to London on Monday to take a tour of the Premier League side's stadium and training facilities.
Fulham are embracing themselves for bids for their prized asset Clint Dempsey, and manager Martin Jol has identified the duo as potential replacements if the USA international leaves.
The Cottagers have yet to agree terms with Heerenveen, but the Friezen have given Fulham permission to open talks with the 21-year-old Narsingh and Assaidi, 23.
"We have given agent Mino Raiola and the players the space to talk," Heerenveen technical director Johan Hansma told De Telegraaf.
"Narsingh and Assaidi had to have a good feeling with a club. It doesn't make any sense if we reach an agreement with a club and the players won't want to go there. To succeed in a transfer there are three sides needed."
Assaidi and Narsingh both have just one year left on their contracts.
Narsingh has also caught the attention of PSV and Ajax, with Heerenveen having rejected a first offer from the Amsterdam giants.

BOSTON (December 7, 2012)--Boston University graduate student Christopher Weigl, 23, who was killed while riding his bicycle, described the pivotal moment when he decided he wanted to become a photojournalist in an obituary he wrote for himself for a class assignment.
Weigl was on his way to class Thursday when he was struck by a truck.
He wrote his obituary in September and it was reprinted in The Boston Globe.
He wrote that "he cemented his love for photojournalism" during a trip to southeast Asia after graduation from Skidmore College when he did a story about the government takeover of a Cambodian island.
The Southborough native also wrote about his love of music and the outdoors.
His professor in the class called him "the ideal student: smart, mature, curious."

The current study examined the effects of physical fitness and aerobic exercise on cognitive functioning and coherence of the electroencephalogram in 30 adolescents between the ages of 13 and 14 years. Participants were first classified as fit or unfit and then performed a modified Eriksen flanker task after a bout of acute exercise and after a period of relaxation. Analysis of behavioural differences between the fit and unfit groups revealed an interaction between fitness levels and acute physical exercise. Specifically, fit participants had significantly faster reaction times in the exercise condition in comparison with the rest condition; unfit, but not fit, participants had higher error rates for NoGo relative to Go trials in the rest condition. Furthermore, unfit participants had higher levels of lower alpha, upper alpha, and beta coherence in the resting condition for NoGo trials, possibly indicating a greater allocation of cognitive resources to the task demands. The higher levels of alpha coherence are of particular interest in light of its reported role in inhibition and effortful attention. The results suggest that physical fitness and acute exercise may enhance cognition by increasing the efficacy of the attentional system.

LOS ANGELES -- Kobe Bryant's lawyers would have a tough time presenting evidence that his accuser had mental problems months before her encounter with the NBA star, legal experts say.
"The question is whether any of this is relevant to her state of mind on the night in question," said Florida attorney Roy Black, who won acquittal for William Kennedy Smith in a 1991 rape trial.
"If she had a disorder on that day that affected her perceptions or her emotional state, that could be relevant."
Loyola University Law Professor Laurie Levenson said defense attorneys could argue for admissibility of mental health evidence but would have trouble convincing a judge.
"If it was just an isolated event, it's irrelevant," she said. "But if it's indicative of an ongoing problem where she has trouble perceiving things, where she makes things up, it would go to the credibility of the witness.
"They have an uphill battle, but you can construct an argument for admissibility."
Bryant, an All-Star guard for the Los Angeles Lakers, was charged with felony sexual assault on the 19-year-old woman. He said he had consensual sex with her June 30 at an exclusive spa where he was staying when he came to Colorado for knee surgery.
Bryant has posted a $25,000 bond and is to return to Colorado on Aug. 6 for an initial court appearance where he will be advised of the charge against him and of his rights.
The woman was taken to a medical center in February after police determined she was a danger to herself, University of Northern Colorado police chief Terry Urista said. In addition, a former roommate said the woman tried to kill herself at school this winter and again in May by trying to overdose on sleeping pills.
Documents in the case have been sealed, and so little is known about the evidence that it's impossible to predict what will happen in court.
Los Angeles attorney Leonard Levine, who has defended many rape cases, said a charge against a celebrity like Bryant is uniquely problematic.
"I'm not sure victims, even when forewarned, are aware of the ramifications when you accuse a celebrity," Levine said. "It will be an ordeal for both sides."
He said the prosecution will fight to keep out of the trial any evidence that might damage the woman's credibility.
"If the facts are true, there's nothing you can do but keep them out of court as irrelevant," Levine said. "She could argue, 'What does this have to do with my being raped?"
Black said the law is clear on one thing -- the woman's prior sexual history is off limits as evidence "unless she previously had sex with Kobe Bryant, which does not seem to be the case."
He said defense lawyers will probably explore whether anti-depressant medication was prescribed for the woman when she was taken to the hospital and what treatment she received subsequently.
Black said a key question would be: "If she had a problem, was she cured?"
Black, who said he has represented other NBA players in lower-profile cases settled without trial, said Bryant's case is likely to go to trial.
"Once the accusation is brought to the police it's almost impossible to settle it," he said. "If he pleads guilty he loses endorsements and his popularity as a player."
If convicted, Bryant faces four years to life in prison or 20 years to life on probation, and a fine of up to $750,000.
Levenson said that Bryant's future may hinge on how carefully the prosecution investigated the case before filing the charge.
"He's got to hope that the prosecution missed something," she said. "Absent something extraordinary, he's headed for trial."

I tried another plugin which suggested adding some custom css, which had no effect whatsoever. Then I tried this one, I just installed and activated it added the widget to the sidebar and added my image details - and hey presto, it worked.
Thank you to the developers.
BTW I used a ratio of 140 for an image that is 480x640 pixels full size. Might be helpful!
Thanks, author!
This plugin is handy because you don't have to set up your own CSS media queries.
Additionally, there are no "trigger points" -- it's completely fluid throughout all device resolutions, at all device resolutions (e.g., not just 1140 px, then it changes at 780 px, etc., but it's fluid throughout ... 1139, 1138, 1137, etc. etc.).
As a bonus, it sits nicely as a background image instead of a topical image.
I was a bit confused over the image height ratio but when I tried 140 the book cover graphic fitted close to perfectly. It's a bit trial and error to work out the scaling but I guess if you did some calculations from the original you would get it right first time.
I tried the Image Widget plugin and it was a lot more fiddly..in fact I couldn't get the image to scale correctly. Another option is included in the WP Jetpack, but haven't checked that for scaling yet.
Responsive Image Widget is highly recommended from what I can see so far.
As the plugin's author, I may have a blind spot, but... as far as I know, the plugin works.
Great for placing images when you know the dimensions you want, but need it to be responsively scaled and you don't want to crop every image you place. I wrote it to save myself time and make image switch easier for clients (who don't necessarily always have an editing program or the time to crop things.)
Let me know if you run into trouble in the support area. I'll do my best to respond.

From Amazon
When a bomb call takes the life of another colleague, Carol begins to investigate a series of explosions that seem to be designed to exterminate bomb technicians. She soon realizes that she's "the one that got away." With the help of an FBI agent whom she loathes professionally for interfering with her job but finds attractive anyway, Carol must track down one of the most frighteningly brilliant killers of the modern age.
This edgy thriller's protagonist is one that the reader at first may have difficulty liking, but she's got a background and history that make her truly three-dimensional. One hopes that Crais, one of the handful of young crime writers capable of writing consistently luminous prose, will continue to give us characters like Carol Starkey to star in his always powerful portraits of modern-day Los Angeles. --Otto Penzler

For fashion fans (guys and girls alike)...
Karl Lagerfeld recently publicly slammed Pippa Middleton saying he didn't like her face. What do you think of it?
For fashion fans (guys and girls alike)...
What Guys Said 9
Meh, I'd publicly slam Pippa Middleton too.10|10|0
She looked beautiful at her sister's wedding, and since then she's looked like a fairly normal, slightly more attractive than average, woman. He's right that she's not supermodel material, but the fact that he actually said it just shows he's a shameless attention whore.00|00|0
Karl Lagerfeld is just like any other hot shot in the fashion industry: an ugly old f*** that orgasms if they get the chance to tell a beautiful person that he or she is not good enough. Who cares what those designers think? They make dresses that nobody can ever wear as opposed to Pippa, who can get away with wearing a garbage bag.00|00|0
please. she's an average looking girl. if you would see her without a makeup it would probably be a disaster.
i don't know what's this fuss all about. nothing special at all.10|10|0
Sounds like 4th grade bullsh*t to me. What do you think?10|10|0
She's pretty and has a nice face. I think her sister is better looking and pippa does not have the best face, but it is a nice, solid face. I would hit that link00|00|0
What do you think?
I think she always looks great.00|00|1
I would love to slam Pippa Middleton in my bed.11|00|1
What Girls Said 11
""Kate Middleton has a nice silhouette and she is the right girl for that boy, but on the other hand," Lagerfeld continued, "I don't like the sister's face. She should only show her back.""
IDK that's sorta harsh. There's a nice and mean way of something and I think he picked the mean route. I mean why even comment on that openly. To criticize someone like that is not classy. Either way I do not find her as attractive as her sister and at some point did feel she was slightly "overrated" but still, I wouldn't nearly go as far as saying she should only show her back.10|10|0
Pippa's not the prettiest. She looked nice at the wedding, but for the life of me, I can't see what everyone is making a big deal about. Kate is a billion time sprettier.00|00|0
He is SO right, she looks old!10|10|0
Ugh... he's such a catty bitch and a HUGE hypocrite. It's disgusting that you need to bring attention to yourself by knocking someone else down. Some people love that drama, man.
Just a few months ago he was calling Adele fat when he himself use to weigh 100+ pounds more than he does now. Way to call someone fat when you were practically eating your models a month ago.00|00|0
"Way to call someone fat when you were practically eating your models a month ago." haha!
Lol, he was!
She's honestly not that pretty and I never understood the hype behind her butt...you couldn't even really see it in her dress
But Karl Lagerfeld talks sh*t about everyone and then apologizes. Don't think he'll be getting any love from Kate or the rest of the royal family10|10|0
I agree, Pippa Middleton is average looking at best. As for whether it was wrong or right of him to say that well... it's Karl Lagerfeld, what did you expect!00|00|0
Lol I wouldn't say I don't like her face but it doesn't really stand out to me.00|00|0
I don't think it was neccessay to say it and I don't know in what context he said it. But he is a legend so it won't hurt him for saying it. But at the same time I think a 74 year old man would have a tad more sense and not say stuff like. But Karl Lagerfeldt isn't known for being the kindest person in the world. He is a bitchonista.00|00|0
That was kind of funny but mean00|00|0
Wow I gues even the riches get put on blast00|00|0
It was pretty alsome00|00|0Click "Show More" for your mentionsMost Helpful Opinion(mho) Rate.

I am using Asp.Net Mvc Web api RC.
I wanted to hide the fields/properties of my model class using custom attribute. Below is my class:
public class Employee
public int EmpId { get; set; }
public string Name{ get; set; }
//Wanted to hide this attribute based on custom logic. Like for a certain role, i want to hide the designation
public string Designation{ get; set; }
public string Department{ get; set; }
How can we achieve using Data Annotations. I mean i wanted to create a separate attribute to use in this manner:
public string Designation{ get; set; }
As i am developing web api. The response is serialized to either XML or Json format depend upon the formatter. So better question would be how not to allow the fields to be serialize while writing to the response.
However one option could be using IgnoreDataMember attribute. Like
public string Designation{ get; set; }
But the above is a compile time declaration where i cannot impose any condition.
Question: How to ignore the field/property while serializing based on some condition at runtime?

Insured Through Work? Save Money on Health Costs
Your employer may offer one or more types of health savings plans to help you pay for your out-of-pocket medical bills and prescription drugs. These allow you to set aside money tax-free to spend on out-of-pocket medical costs.
Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
The money set aside in an FSA can be used for medical expenses such doctor visits, chiropractor fees, prescription drug copayments, dental care, and vision care not otherwise covered by your health plan. The money can also be used to pay for over-the-counter medicines, but only if your doctor writes a prescription for them.
Requirements: Your employer has to offer FSAs. If you're self-employed, you're not eligible.
How it works: You decide how much money you want to save for medical costs when you enroll for insurance during open enrollment. That amount is divided among all your paychecks. So on each paycheck stub, you'll see an automatic deduction for your FSA. Your employer can also contribute money into this account for you.
Amount you can save a year: Up to $2,550 in 2015. Each year, the government may adjust the maximum amount you're allowed to save.
How it helps save money: The money you deposit into your FSA comes out of your paycheck before any taxes have been taken out. So your FSA money is tax-free. You can also make withdrawals without paying taxes as long as you spend the money on qualified medical expenses -- health care or products on an IRS-approved list.
Another way it helps: With an FSA, you can spend money that you've committed to the account before you've saved it. For instance, if you decide at the start of the benefit year to put $2,550 in your FSA, and you have a $1,000 expense in January, you can still use your FSA account to pay, even though you have not yet set aside $1,000 to the account.
Warnings: FSAs are considered "use or lose" accounts.You must spend the money you commit to the FSA during the benefit year or you'll lose it. Sometimes employers offer a grace period of a few months to give employees extra time to spend the money. Also, last year the U.S. Treasury Department and IRS allowed employers to let workers carry over up to $500 of unused FSA funds to the next year. Employers can offer you either a grace period or the carryover option, but not both. Also, they are not required to offer either.

Oh wow, thanks Peter for posting this great recipe. I'm lucky enough to have a tube of Nostimini herb mix and this recipe sure does it justice. Wish I could tell everyone the exact mix, but the label is rather vague. I had chicken mince rather than breast, so made burgers. What a great decision. I added almost 1/2 of a cup of finely chopped red onion, and then shaped the meat into six burgers. Depending on the family member, this was served on crusty bread rolls or wraps and topped with guacamole, and sliced tomato, red onion and tasty cheese. Delish.


text: This was our first time at a B&B, and we had such a great experience here, that we hope to return soon. The house is beautiful, the views are absolutely stunning, and the couple who run it are just the nicest people - so friendly and helpful. I can't say enough about the delicious (and huge) breakfasts that they served. Everything we tasted, even the coffee, was excellent. Our room (the Shenandoah Suite) had charming decor and very comfortable furnishings, and a spacious private deck with a fantastic view. Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing weekend, and I highly recommend this lovely B&B.

Hip and Knee Pain
Hip and knee pain are among the top health complaints of many Americans, and while some may opt to have surgery to repair the problems, Dr. Ronald Grelsamer says that isn't always the best solution. Dr. Grelsamer, author of What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery talks with Dr. Oz about his book and offers advice for those suffering from knee or hip pain and considering surgery.
What You Need to Know About Knee and Hip Pain:
What You Need to Know About Knee and Hip Pain:
- Don't be alarmed by the word "tear." If an MRI shows you have a tear in your knee cartilage, don't always think surgery is the only option, Dr. Grelsamer says. He says only in very severe cartilage tears is surgery necessary. "There is no question that many people can live with a tear in the knee like they can with a little cuff tear in the shoulder or a little disc bulge in the back," he says.
- Try other medical options before getting surgery. Dr. Grelsamer says bracing the knee, avoiding the activities that hurt, taking anti-inflammatory medication and getting physical therapy are all options you should try instead of surgery.
- Give yourself three weeks or so of nonsurgical treatments. "[If] you realize you're not getting anywhere [after three weeks] and you still have the same pain—it hurts in the same spot every time your knee twists a certain way you've got the pain—then it is not unreasonable to have an orthopedic surgery procedure," Dr. Grelsamer says.
- Weight management can alleviate knee and hip pain. "Your knees and your hips see many times your body weight," he says. "If you lose or gain 10 pounds, your knee and hip will think you lost or gained 30 pounds—40 pounds or 50 pounds if you are running or jumping," he says.
- Surgery should always be the last resort. "Once you are an informed consumer and you know exactly what the deal is and you can't stand the pain anymore, then the time is right [for surgery]," Dr. Grelsamer says.

Brief Synopsis
On December 10 and 11, 1998, over 100 scholars, civilian government officials, and military officers from the United States, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Panama and Mexico gathered at the U.S. Army War College to discuss "Landpower and Ambiguous Warfare: The Challenge of Colombia in the 21st Century." While the conference adopted no resolutions or conclusions, it provided a valuable forum for expressing widely differing viewpoints on critical components of Colombia's security situation. The meeting highlighted the urgency of the Colombian crisis and the need for a comprehensive response by Colombia, the United States, and the regional community of nations. Much of the dialogue developed the principal subthemes of the conference: the sources of violence; the role of the guerrillas, paramilitaries, and narcotraffickers; the institutional capabilities and responses of the Colombian government and armed forces; and the role of the United States. Here, there was sharp disagreement among the participants, with some arguing in favor of an increased U.S. counternarcotics and/or counterinsurgency role and others emphasizing the priority of the peace process. This report summarizes the issues addressed and the major concerns of the attendees. The Strategic Studies Institute is pleased to offer the monograph as a contribution to the national security debate on Colombia within the United States and abroad.

Before it so much as sets foot in US shops the price of the BlackBerry Z10 has been slashed -- just a month after it went on sale in the UK.
Carphone Warehouse and Vodafone have both trimmed the price of the Z10, the first smart phone to show off the new BlackBerry software. BlackBerry 10 is supposed to be the saviour of BlackBerry after Android and the iPhone elbowed the Canadian company out of the smart phone market it basically invented.
At Carphone Warehouse the Z10 now costs £30 and £30 per month on a two-year contract, knocking £6 a month off your bill -- that's £160 off your total outlay over the length of the contract.
And Vodafone is selling the Z10 for £33 per month online, knocking off more than £70 over the length of the contract.
BlackBerry bosses initially claimed that the Z10 was selling well, while giving no actual sales figures. The phone is expected to launch in the US this month, after it was advertised in this baffling fashion...
In more bad news for BlackBerry, online movie and streaming behemoth Netflix has dissed BB10, saying it has no plans to build an app for the nascent OS. Oh no you di'n't, Netflix! Netflix is still relatively new over here but is a huge deal in the US, and the availability of such high-profile apps can often be the dealbreaker. I only switched to Windows Phone when a Spotify app appeared in the Windows Phone marketplace.
Have you bagged a BlackBerry? Is the Z10 worth every penny? Tell me your thoughts in the comments or on our Facebook page.

Most Helpful
I used this recipe to pop up my squash puree.
I roasted the vegetables (expect rutabag that I did not have), added spices and herbs (saved some for decorationI) and I incorporated this to the squash puree. Adding some water a decorated with the reserved vegetables.
This was delicious, filling, tasty and with a great texture. Helps to save calories!
Thanks for this recipe.
This was a satisfying soup, very filling. It was a little bland, next time I would use vegetable or chicken broth instead of water. It's a bonus that it's so beautiful to look at.
I really wanted to love this recipe, I mean, look at the photo- its a gorgeous dish! However, there was an overall sweet flavor to the stew that needed something to balance it out. I used a Walla Walla Sweet onion, which probably didn't help out the already sweet squash, rutabaga, and peppers. The flavors melded a little more in the fridge overnight, but it still tasted like it needs something. I added some fresh torn basil to a serving I heated up for lunch and that was good, but not quite it. Maybe curry? But that just might make it a whole different recipe.

Fans of both football and superhero films will have yet another mash-up to look forward to when the Man of Steel sequel arrives in theaters. Over the weekend, director Zack Snyder filmed scenes of a football game between Gotham City University and Metropolis State University at East Los Angeles College's Weingart Stadium. The Batman News fan site has photos and footage from the shoot, as well as confirmation of sorts of the film's title — in that "a Warner Bros. representative" referred to the production as Batman vs. Superman.
This being the age of instant behind-the-scenes footage, several different videos have popped up giving viewers a glimpse at the film.
Adam Hlavac posted the following one featuring direction for the assembled Gotham-loving crowd of extras.
Earlier in the week, Batman News showed off exclusive images of the jerseys worn by both teams during shooting which you can see below.
It seems like we're still a long way away from actually finding out what this film will really be about, but it seems like things are moving along fairly smoothly as far as filming and production goes. Batman vs. Superman is scheduled to debut July 17, 2015.
Excited, cant wait.
screw that, if I was that I'd STILL be cheering for Metropolis xD. SUPERMAN!
Filming the Gotham fans suggests one of two things, maybe both: either the game is being played in Gotham (unlikely, since it seems Metropolis is wearing "home colors"), or the characters we're supposed to see in this particular scene are from Gotham. I don't think that means Bruce Wayne, necessarily, since he'd likely be in a skybox or something like that; but it makes it more likely we'll see some balance between Gotham and Metropolis characters.
In football the home team wears the colors visiting in white

I have an iso file of operating system's set up.
Now, I don't have dvd burner right now.
But the alternate - 4gb pen drive is available.
If I copy entire iso file to pen drive,
Can my system boot through pend drive?
Since you worded it as "if I copy the entire iso file to the pen drive" I want to just clarify something. You do not want to copy the .iso file to the thumb drive. You need to use an utility, such as UltraISO, to extract the ISO contents first. It is those files that need to be on the thumb drive. Also make sure that whatever is in the root of the ISO is also in the root of the thumb drive. I have seen people copy the ISO contents into a folder on the thumb drive and then be surprised why it won't boot.
It depends on your machine.
Most computers in the past few years - Yes, but you may need to burn a operating system on there as well as the machine may not pick it up.
Basically, I have pretty much found that most machines I work from can just have standard ISO's expanded to USB drives and work straight away without anything extra, where as some require you to format, include system files and basically prepare it before you start to copy over any other files.
Try it, you can't break anything by just having a go! (unless you have some sort of unattend script that formats your drive!... But if you can get that far, it has probably done what you need!)
Similar steps will work for any other iso.
Plain copying an ISO file to a usb drive won't always work. I'm just guessing it is a linux distribution you want to install on the usb drive.
On this site you can find all kind of guides how to install ubuntu, backtrack, fedora, and way more distributions on a usb pendrive.
~ Jeffrey V.
You may also try UNetbootin which offers
The tool is available for Windows and Linux.
if this is a windows installation disc image, mount the ISO (e.g. with WinCDEmu) then use WinToFlash to create a bootable USB stick. it doesn't get any easier.
unless you post make and model of your system, this is hard to answer, but most modern computers can boot from USB. :)

'Father and Son'
(ART) Louise Bourgeois's fountain monument to the limits of masculine family relationships is finally finished and marking the southwestern corner of the Olympic Sculpture Park. The thick columns of white water that alternately cover stainless-steel father, then stainless-steel son obscure them from each other as their hands reach across the divide. To me the figures are stiff and the psychology overdetermined compared to much of Bourgeois's work, but the shoots of water are pleasantly solid, almost like two pure white marble shrouds.

For about the last 6 months, and for about a year before that (with a 6 month hiatus), one of my servers has had a consistently high load average:
13:37:34 up 192 days, 5:44, 2 users, load average: 2.00, 2.01, 2.00
Per another answer, I checked the output of ps:
$ ps -eo stat,pid,user,command | egrep "^STAT|^D|^R"
D< 3043 root /sbin/modprobe -Q pci:v00008086d0000293Esv000015D9sd0000D780bc04sc03i00
D< 3150 root /sbin/modprobe -Qba pnp:dPNP0401
Checking the config & loaded modules:
$ modprobe -c | grep "pnp:dPNP0401"
alias pnp:dPNP0401* parport_pc
$ sudo modprobe -l | grep parport_pc
So it appears to be a parallel port rule, but I can't think of what might be connected, or why. Physical access to the server is about 2 hours drive away.
Operating system is Ubuntu 8.04.4.
I can't see anything obvious anywhere in /etc/ but I may not know what I'm looking for.
Any clues as to what might be causing this, and where this modprobe rule may have come from?

Yes its open all year, 7 days a week. You'll spend hours looking through all their stuff, but its well worth a visit.
I have to admit I just spent a small fortune in the Nutcracker Christmas Shop while I was up in Crieff, Scotland. What a great place to buy Christmas decorations all year round. The one special thing...
I use a door hanger on the double doors through to the dining room. The cat always knocks them off the window cill if the little one doesn't try and read them first. So it two new door hangers this...
Just sitting at my desk waiting for the point when the weekend starts and I can go home!
The full works for us. I bought a Christmas cook book a few years back and I keep going a bit over the top with the food, but it wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't, I love it that way. :elf1:
Nice but of fun to cheer a rain filled day.
I'm Sneezy Snowflake!!
P - Prancer
On the eighth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, ...
12C with lots of rain!!
D = DECORATIONS :christmastree:
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
My wife told me that for every Christmas movie I watch on Movies24 Christmas in July is a day later we will be putting the decorations up and she really hates me telling her how many days are left...
We love a real tree and always go to Hamsterley Forest run by the Forestry Commission so we know its sustainable as they replant new trees. :christmastree:
Sitting at work looking at baby's first Christmas ornaments online.
HollyJolly I got the christmas countdown clock from www.clickapps.com
My chirstmas countdown clock on my mobile lit up this morning showing only 151 days to go.:tree:
I was gutted when I opened the new Argos to see so little in the way of Christmas stuff maybe the Tesco Direct one may have more.
15C/59F and overcast, but just been on Metcheck.com and they think that County Durham has a 30% chance of seeing a White Christmas! :snowman:
I have to admit we buy something new every year usually from the place weve been on holiday to. So far we have decorations from New York, Australia, Egypt, France, Belgium, Spain, Mexico. This year...
Just starting to plan now as it's my son's first Christmas. Money is a bit tight this year so i'll be off out early to get some bargins before the prices go up for the Christmas shoppers.
Catching up on emails while siting on a very cold building site happy that the company hasn't blocked access to this website.

Steve Paikin's Blog
Just when it looked as if the province and the OMA had their issues all figured out, a doctor-led mutiny erupted. Here's what happened.
The provincial government announced this week that Ontario's annual economic growth rate was much better than forecast. Here's why a large part of the province isn't feeling the upsurge.
New cabinet minister Eleanor McMahon inherited a department that has drafted the province's first culture strategy. Here's why reworking budget allocations could give a boost to artistic investments and projects.
A generous gift from a wealthy benefactor may put the brakes on young talent leaving Sudbury by establishing a state-of-the-art facility for aspiring architects.
I wonder whether people have become so accustomed to their leaders letting them down that they no longer care about facts or accuracy as long as political candidates make them feel good.
